    Second Best Scene: I feel there are few things sexier that a man can do than live a life of integrity. Yes, BLH kills it with the puffy sleeves and the whole Regency silhouette, but sexiness resides between the ears, and with AC, it does not help our plight as observers that we are dealing with one heck of a sexy man. When he hugs his deceased wife's child, who is wise beyond the perch of childhood, and promises her he will be a better father, I lose it and melt. It's a profound moment that warms CH’s affection and says so much more than just the words being spoken. This simple but powerful scene is an overt demonstration of love that is appropriately rare in the show. Except for The Dance, with that exquisite dip and the cello’s tender adagio, with her hand clasped to his chest and the impenetrable lock of their eyes, and with words that sear through his isolation and bare his soul, the Better Father scene is my favorite. Breathing through either scene is not easy.

      Well, that was SO beautifully said, Mary ❤️ ❤️ Thank you. And absolutely spot on. For Xander to have been right there next to Lennox, knowing how Leo was conceived, and to take her in his arms and profess that he will always be her father... that is a man who has set aside his own deep feelings about how it all happened in favor of the innocence of the child in front of him. I was already in love with Alexander Colbourne by that point, but I fell off a cliff after that scene. ❤️

      Yes I agree. I think it is a revelation to himself how much he loves his daughter Leonora. I love the tenderness of the hands brushing against each other when he asks Charlotte to take Leo home. There is a scene in “North and South” where Margaret and John brush hands and fingertips when she serves him a cup of tea. It’s beautiful just like this scene. Such a simple thing but shows the deepening of their feelings for each other in both stories.

    Little Leo AMBUSHED Colonel Lennox. He never knew what hit him. It's good that he showed a smidgen of decency and didn't tell Leo the truth. He's no paternal type, but I suspect that he will keep Leo's tin soldier as a keepsake of his offspring (I won't call her his daughter - she's Colbourne's daughter in every way, apart from biologically).

    OT, but at first I wondered where Leo got her child-sized uniform, boots and tin soldiers - especially considering how much her father is against her being a tomboy. I suspect they were once his and/or his brother's. Leonora must've found them in a trunk in the attic at some point! And little Flora Mitchell is doing a phenomenal job as Leonora!

      Lots of discussion about that -- whether it belonged to a relative and she found it in the attic. Or possibly even that it was a coat left behind by Lennox before she was born. We need a military history buff to tell us the age of the jacket, and when that type was worn by the British Army. Anyone out there that knows? ❤️

    I may be looking for breadcrumbs here, so this may (or may not) be significant for Season 3, but of all the men there, who greets and escorts Leo, and minutes later, Charlotte and Colbourne, to Lennox's tent? Capt. Fraser - AND he stayed and heard part of the conversation. As they leave the tent Fraser is walking and watching them, and he and Charlotte look at each other. We then see him watching Charlotte, Colbourne and Leo in the background like a hawk. He may have even noticed that small caress of Charlotte's fingers by Colbourne at the end. Since he will become Charlotte's brother-in-law just 2 months later, I wonder if he tells Alison what he saw and I wonder if he will play some role in process of getting Charlotte and Colbourne together.

    He wasn’t able to meet Lucy’s emotionally because he was grieving at that time. He told Charlotte it wasn’t long after I inherited the estate. So either his father or his older brother had died. I believe it’s his older brother. When they’re at the garden party Alexander tells Mrs D “ I’m nothing like my father.” So we see a little resentment slip out from him about his father. But when he was interviewing Charlotte he tells her about the governess him and his brother had. Charlotte says “ then I feel sorry for you and your brother.” If you catch it Alexander is silent for a moment and looks downward as in loving memory of his brother. That makes me think his brother was his older brother, his protector against the governess and perhaps his father too. I think he inherited from his older brother’s death. I think Alexander stayed at Hayrick Park to grieve his brother but to probably manage any and all problems with the estate. If his older brother was his protector then maybe his older brother had some demons of his own. I don’t think Lucy was mature enough of a wife for what Alexander was going through. 💔💔💔😔

    It seems that Lennox had no idea he had a child by Lucy. There was a look in his eyes, after Alexander left his tent for good, that it dawned on him why A was so angry. Perhaps even regretful, of the way he had taunted A, now knowing he had left A a constant reminder of his selfish evil. Did he think Leo was Alexander’s? Did he not know that she had a child, then died? Now this is seeming like a story inconsistency. He didn’t know Lucy had a child? Then did he know Lucy had died? Hummm. Not adding up.
