Pride and Prejudice: Chapters 19-24

If you haven't heard enough about Mr. Collins, this is the episode where he really "shines." Yes, we've finally get to discuss the infamous proposal of Mr Collins to Lizzy Bennet. Probably one of the most iconic scenes of Pride and Prejudice, followed by one of the best lines in all of the books. While completely cringe-worthy in itself, this proposal sets up so much of what follows in this classic romance.

The luxury of never having to speak to your crazy mother again.

Charlotte Lucas knows exactly what she wants and how to get it.
