Chapter 12: Lizzy goes for a walk to distract herself from Proposageddon. Unfortunately, Darcy finds her and gives her a letter in an attempt to clear his name.

Chapter 13: Lizzie's reaction, in real time, to the letter. She starts out prejudiced against Darcy, but as she continues to read, she starts to think maybe he's telling the truth.

Highlights include a Darcy-getting-to-know-Lizzy montage, Fitzy SPILLING THE TEA on Darcy, and Lizzy giving herself a headache from crying.

Funniest quote: "She felt all the perverseness of the mischance that should bring him where no one else was brought, and, to prevent its ever happening again, took care to inform him at first that it was a favorite haunt of hers. How it could occur a second time, therefore, was very odd! Yet it did, and even a third."
