The Buccaneers Season 1 Episode 6 Recap
It is Christmas time, and everyone is having a snowball fight outside while the snobby folks inside are getting quite irritated. We see Theo and Nan head into the house and run into Guy, who just happens to be with Lady Hopeleigh.
Who does Theo ask to be his best man?
While Nan stares off in a daze as Guy and Theo begin to talk, Theo thanks Lady Hopeleigh for taking care of his best man. Guy perks up, asking, “Is that what I am?” Theo says of course and the two embrace.
Guy and Nan run into each other in the hallway and go into a room to chat about their last conversation. He wanted to clear the air about the money situation and how he was in search of marrying someone with money to save his house and even his mom. However, the moment he laid eyes on Nan, everything changed. She asked what the telegram said, but Theo lied and said it was just telling her to have a good trip.
Lord Seadown continues controlling Jinny and wishing to celebrate Christmas with just her and not her friends and family since he struggles to get along with them. Outside, Lizzy falls, and Lord Seadown comes to the rescue, picking her up and bringing her inside the house. He confronts her by saying that he and Jinny want a drama-free holiday, and Lizzy just lays in bed crying.
How does Jinny react to Lizzy telling her the truth?
Jinny wasn’t thrilled her husband came to Lizzy’s rescue. After he left the room, she overheard Lizzy crying and went to check in on her. She explained what he did that night, and Jinny asked if anything had happened, and she said no. Jinny said her husband didn’t force her to do anything, saying it was her fault, and stormed away.
Jinny confronts her husband about that night, and he plays it coy but calls her out asking if she is done with him. Instead of staying and listening, Lord Seadown walks away as Jinny says she told Lizzy she didn’t believe him.
