Grace and Edgar’s six-month courtship has the makings of a Regency-era romance, including a Darcy-esque hand flex.

Yes, Grace’s “mind movie” story is a period piece romance, in which she details her and Edgar’s six-month courtship, leading up to the morning after the wedding when she found him dead in their marital bed. It’s sweet and sad and still somehow funny, too.

At the bachelorette party, though, Zoë’s sisterly radar goes off, and she starts poking holes in Grace’s romantic fantasy, asking questions about whether her sister is truly happy. Edgar is often away on business, it seems. And we learn that he’s obsessed with biohacking and wants to live to 140, which involves going to bed at the exact same time every night, except one time on New Year’s Eve when Grace gave him Adderall, and he stayed up until 5 a.m. playing Connect Four against himself.

Grace’s story is compelling, but a few details remain that don’t do her any favors. Like: she didn’t want to sign the prenup . And: she was pretty unhappy. And: it’s not a great look to spike your husband’s drink, even if it wasn’t with poison. But time will tell, I suppose. I’m not convinced any of these details add up to her murdering Edgar.
