OMG HENRY IS BACK, BABY! And apparently, nobody in 1715 is getting any sleep this week. 😂 From Brian and Ellen bringing the heat to Murtagh and Grace’s slow-burn romance, this episode is giving us sex, secrets, love tokens and enough emotional damage to last a lifetime. Nikki and Lisa are unpacking ALL of it, from Henry and Julia’s long-awaited reunion (and the Seema-shaped elephant in the room) to Brian choosing love over titles, Dougal being a baddie, and Murtagh proving that a little kindness and a handmade flower can go a very long way. Plus, that final twist? WE ARE NOT OKAY.
