A scene from “Unfinished Business”

Lady Violet Bridgerton: There were some lovely young ladies in attendance last night, were there not? Lady Delilah has beautiful manners, and I hear Miss Goodrum is very accomplished in her needlework. Perhaps you shall get to know them better soon.

Viscount Anthony Bridgerton: Lady Delilah can barely string a sentence together. And Miss Goodrum thought that Napoleon fights for the Spanish. As for every other eager chit you pushed in my direction, I'd happily never lay eyes on them again.

Lady Violet Bridgerton: Anthony...

Viscount Anthony Bridgerton: I am looking for perfection, Mother. And you should be, too. The woman I marry shall be the Viscountess Bridgerton, the lady of this household, responsible for launching my sisters and bearing my children. Do you desire them to be raised by a woman who does not know how to so much as hold a map right side up? This is the duty I must fulfill.
