SUMMARY:
Elizabeth and Mrs Gardiner head to Pemberly and they enter the saloon where they are met by Miss Darcy, the woman she lives with in London, Miss Bingley, and Mrs Hurst. Miss Darcy is still very embarrassed by the whole situation. Miss Bingley and Mrs Hurst treat Elizabeth and Mrs Gardiner coldly. Mrs Gardiner and Mrs Ansley start the conversation after a long awkward pause. During their conversations Elizabeth realises that she cannot talk to Miss Darcy without being eyed by Miss Bingley. The servants bring some food into the room, and it eases the situation a little. Elizabeth feels that she would like Mr Darcy to be there, but on his entering the room, changes her mind. 
With Darcy now in the room, Miss Bingley watches every movement he makes. Elizabeth feels that Darcy wants his sister to get to know her as soon as possible. Miss Bingley notices this, and to silence Elizabeth she brings up the local militia, not knowing that Mr Wickham is so closely involved with Miss Darcy, thus silencing her. Elizabeth reacts well to the comment, and this causes Darcy to watch Elizabeth even more closely and favourably. Eventually Elizabeth and Mrs Gardiner leave, and after escorting them to their carriage, Darcy is hounded by Miss Bennet with snarky remarks about Elizabeth, hoping to find out how he truly feels about her.
