The Gilded Age season 4 episode 3 preview
George Russell finally came home to Bertha at the end of Episode 2. Before he could face his estranged wife, though, he had another visitor to deal with: Will Morris, the young man who shot him. George’s men dragged Will from his mother Anne’s apartment, leaving her to plead with Bertha for her son’s life.
Bertha urged George to turn Will over to the police. Instead, George threatened to kill him if he ever returned to New York, then sent him and Anne away. He went home that night and told Bertha he felt lost. She asked him to stay, and he reached for her hand. After months apart and a dispute over their daughter Gladys’ marriage, they have a great deal left to repair.
Agnes van Rhijn has a presidential dinner to prepare, and Bertha has noticed. Enid Winterton made sure of that at the opera, where she announced Agnes’ plans to host Grover Cleveland. Agnes also sat for an interview in Episode 2. In Sunday’s installment, Ada, Marian and Aurora will try to keep her from seeing the resulting article, while Bertha sets her sights on the dinner.
Marian has been spending long hours at the settlement house, much to her aunts’ concern. Larry Russell would like to marry her after their night together at a hotel, but she doesn’t want them to rush into a wedding for that reason. Peggy Scott, meanwhile, is navigating a difficult introduction to Newport society. William’s mother, Elizabeth, announced Peggy’s widowhood to her friends, prompting Peggy and her mother to ask for more consideration.
