While it's a rather earthy scene, what do ya'll think the main reason of the storyline is in Scene 5?? What happens to either move the story along, or develeops the characters move fully?? Thoughts??
Remember we aren't looking for wrong or right answers on this one, just some ideas that we can kick around...........

Ahhh! Its that scene!! Crikey!! OK, deep breath and lets have a go! My first thought wasn't printable,then, well, come to think of it neither were my next few either!! Who the heck is going to be Jane in the film? OMG! Can you imagine? NO, STOP THAT!! Back to the plot. I think this is the point that the Earl realises that he is falling hard (no pun intended) for EB. Jane catches on but I can't decide exactly what her feelings are about this. Is she jealous, or worried about her income or just concerned for the Earl even tho' she quite obviously doesn't want to be? He obviously had things on his mind other than the job in hand (or mouth, oops sorry!) and I don't think it was all down to the King yabbering on from another room (wouldn't you just love that to happen!). I am wondering if maybe he knows he is falling for EB but doesn't really want to because he feels guilty about it. It would be one thing to have his wife accept him putting it around left, right and centre (heck, sorry, but it is very difficult to be descriptive without it sounding smutty and it's not intended), but quite another for her to accept that her husband actually loves somebody else. Sorry, despite all the typing I don't think I have actually said much of any importance. Please can somebody else have a go and make some sense of it.

This one had me a bit concerned about why it was there, I think it was there to show the "jockeying" for "place" between the King and Johnny, and I thought Jeffreys used it as a way to show us what Jane was truly feeling about herself, her situation and the Earl.
