"The Gilded Age" on HBO

I'm looking forward to next week when Bertha and the Duke's sister butt heads.

[MikeThomas]

Bertha will prevail.  Gladys will grow a pair.  The sister will be banished to the dower house.

What's this?  Madame Dashkova returns!

.. and 

Wow, what an episode 6 finale!  😮

My husband and I both saw the ending 15sec ahead of when it occurred… 

Poor Oscar. Now he’ll never be able to afford to get his bangs trimmed.

...and sweet Larry is about to get kicked to the curb.😢

Or will he?🙂

Are we aware of exactly why Larry chose to take Jack to the unrespectable whorehouse of ill fame in the first place?

I don’t remember any scenes in earlier eps that hinted at his knowledge of such establishments. (But then I’m preoccupied by the weirdness of the wardrobe and hair. They need to start doing Baranski’s fittings with her seated, and for some reason Bertha’s core style exists in a fantasy world that bounces as much as decade in a day…)

It doesn't seem that far-fetched to me. Jack is insanely rich now, and Larry wanted to show him how the insanely rich live. For what it's worth, Larry's friend picked the venue, Larry was just going to see him; I didn't see any hints that Larry intended any catting around. 

I did love seeing how Bertha coached Gladys into shutting the sister down; they're finally starting to appreciate each other as people. "Are you ill?" 🤣

What will our Larry do when he opens Marian's letter?  

Now that Jack is cut loose from the only family he's known.....will our boys need to console each other?    ......or just head back to The Haymarket?

Maybe Madame Dashkova can guide!
