Emma Chapters 25-26

Pod and Prejudice

Frank gets a haircut, Emma goes to a party, Jane gets a piano from a secret admirer, and some suspicions arise about Mr. Knightley. Topics discussed include teeth brushing tactics and Knightley's love life.

Study questions: Topics discussed include Emma's feelings toward the Coles, what we learn about the Churchills, Frank and Emma's dynamic, what the HELL happened between Frank and Jane, who sent the pianoforte, and the potential Knightfax pairing.

Funniest quote: “Only to be sure it was paying him too great a compliment, but she did think there were some looks a little like Mr. Elton.” Emma restrained her indignation, and only turned from her in silence.

Questions moving forward: Does Knightley like Jane? Did Frank send the piano? Does Frank like Jane? Does Frank know something about Jane? Who sent the pianoforte?

Who wins the chapters? Mrs. Weston
