The Games People Play: Once again Ross Poldark slips the noose:ДЄt this point, whenever Ross Poldark comes before him, Judge Halse just rolls his eyes and says, вЂњwhatever.вЂќ Ross stands trial for his part in the ill-fated smuggling run, but luckily for him the customs officer he punched wasnвЂ™t in court.В Thus, Jud was able to bring in fake (and apparently mute) witnesses to testify Ross was in St Ives on the night in question.

Elizabeth accepts GeorgeвЂ™s hand, and everything else that goes with it, we suspect (at least a little) to spite Auntie.В In one fell swoop he won the hand of the woman he says he loves, and dealt the deadliest blow to his enemy. Is she offended to hear her unrequited love spoken aloud, or upset that her inner thoughts can be so easily read by ye olde bat? Unfortunately,В Aunt Agatha turned over her tarot card, exposing The Devil too late.

She says she needs time to think about it.ДЄunt Agatha reminds Elizabeth, in the spirit of full disclosure, that if George is looking for her heart, he should probably know she has already bestowed it elsewhere, on a certain Ross вЂTin ManвЂ™ Poldark. ThoughВ donвЂ™t you think heВ will he throwВ BoyВ over in a flash ifВ he and ElizabethВ ever have their own son?В In essence, heВ makes her an offer she canвЂ™t refuse, not available in any store. He even promises Boy (AKAВ Jeffrey Charles)В will be his heir. And if she acts now, heвЂ™ll throw in a set of ginsu steak knives and aВ punctilious gentility born of his lack of breeding.

He wants to marry her.В He says he knows she would never marry for money (вЂ¦this time). This time he doesnвЂ™t just want Elizabeth to be вЂniceвЂ™ to him. The Devil Is In The Details:В George takes the opportunity to make his case. (Later, within ElizabethвЂ™s sight but out ofВ earshot, he can trot up to them and tell them good job, go back to my manservant Tankard and collect your coins, impressing clueless Elizabeth.)

Meanwhile back at the ranch, as his secret terror campaign continues, George torments Elizabeth with offers from PublisherвЂ™s Clearinghouse, and then hires extras to turn up and pretend to dig for tinВ right outside her front parlor window, on her very own private Poldark land. WhenВ Verity stops by for a fly-in visit on her way to Nampara, all Elizabeth can say is: вЂњHow strange it must be to be here without Francis.вЂќ Um, she didnвЂ™t say that when Verity was there to relieve her of having to care for sick Aunt Agatha, did she? But now she seems impatient with VerityвЂ™s presence, like sheвЂ™s impatient with Aunt Agatha, like FrancisвЂ™ family is yesterdayвЂ™s news.В No more pretense.В SheвЂ™s on to shiny new carriages. Riding in Cars with Boys: Who canВ ElizabethВ turnВ toВ when (she thinks) Ross has turned away?:Д®lizabeth has taken to riding around town in GeorgeвЂ™s convertible (with Mummy Dearest and Boy asВ chaperones).В George is trying to buy offВ Boy with giftsВ and Elizabeth is pretending to protest.Here are the 7 essentials (plus one) of episode 7вЂ¦ You can file that underВ вЂfamous last wordsвЂ™. вЂI will never again be guilty of such recklessness.вЂ™В So said a certain Ross Poldark.
