I KNOW YOURE MAD.

Article image

The U.K. was mad too.

Withno promise of a renewal, our bonneted drama series hasended on a giant cliffhanger.

To that woman no one likes but me!

How devastating for almost everyone.

Probably Charlotte the most.

How dare they, truly.

Remember earlier in the episode when they were just beingweirdaround each other?

And by weird I mean intensely awkward?

and move farther apart.

This is a period drama.

We know how this goes.

I hope you liked that scene, because its one of the last good ones youre getting.

The one exception is at the Midsummer Ball (I love a ball!)

when he returns to the Rudeness Balcony and my suspicions thatOld Sidney is deadbecome canon.

New Sidney says, What a brute I was.

Not now, though.

That man is dead.

Charlotte says hes the same man, but much improved.

That man is in a ditch, and were all better off for it.

Sidney soon has to rush off, though, because fire!

There is a fire!

The thing about the past is everything could easily be on fire.

There were no sprinklers!There was no official fire department!

But lets backtrack to Young Stringer dooming his father to a certain end.

Young Stringers life is all set before him.

Hes been offered an apprenticeship with a London architect.

Hes reasonably certain Charlotte is not into him, so hes able to cut those ties.

All thats left is his dad.

His dad tells him hes only going to London to raise his social standing for Charlotte.

(Did anyone else immediately think ofG.O.B.

Bluth hurling the check into the sea?)

Babington asks no follow-up questions about this.

Speaking of: Georgiana Lambe.

Not your best look,Sanditon.

And you know whos received short shrift but whom I have loved from afar for many an episode?

Arthurs friendship with Georgiana is a treasure, as hes the only person trying to lift her spirits.

Has anyone investigated the possibility that Arthur might be Winnie the Pooh?

But thats the end.

Charlotte rolls off in a carriage crying.

Sidney stands by his horse looking shook.

WELLGUESS WHAT, THE SHOW WAS CANCELED.

Well never know its true ending, so maybe we shouldnt take a stab at give it one.

… No, thats ridiculous, #SaveSanditon.
