The Meryton assembly. A new arrival from London. Protag has been warned about Mr. Darcy: proud, rich, and insufferable. Nobody warned Protag that he would ask for the next dance.

  1. The Meryton assembly rooms are too warm and too loud, and Protag has been in them for barely a quarter of an hour when the whole room turns toward the door.

  2. Mr. Bingley enters with easy smiles for everyone, followed by a tall, unsmiling gentleman who surveys the dancers as though they were an unfavourable investment.

  3. Elizabeth Bennet

    behind her fan Mr. Darcy. Ten thousand a year, no manners.

  4. He has already called the room tolerable at best.

  5. Across the floor, Mr. Darcy's gaze moves past every lady in the room and stops, with evident reluctance, on Protag.

  6. Mr. Darcy

    after a long pause, with a stiff bow Might I request the next dance?

  7. Caroline Bingley

    loudly, to no one How very charitable of you, Mr. Darcy.
