We got dates! Once again, it's time to decide. Do I take leave from work to watch??
I have so many thoughts and questions about this new scene.
Why are they passing each other on the stairs in opposite directions?
Is this before or after Benedict sees Sophie looking at the chandelier?
If it's before, do they have a brief moment before they continue past each other? And then he MUST find her again later? And so rather than him running away from other ladies in the other teaser, he's actually LOOKING for her?
If it's after he's already seen her in the ballroom... Why would he continue past her? I'm torn because I would love how impactful it would be if he was struck dumb in the first moment he saw her under the chandelier but that doesn't narratively fit with this moment on the stairs.
Another "hands touch" moment, squee! My heart. Where's one of them gif comparison across seasons?
We see THE SHOES. So triggering. And so sparkly.
And the glove on the floor! I guess that's an appropriately dramatic and visual way for Benedict to get the glove. Just like Cinderella's shoe. Rather than, oops I'm still holding her glove.
Oh lawdy.
I love this suspense and mulling over theories. Watch me get it all wrong and be happy anyway!
