What a Barb! Episode 6 - What a... Well, You Know!

It's the moment we've all been waiting for...it's Barb time, baby! Prepare to be scandalised as we head over to the sensuous Trowbridge Ball for our Polin rewatch of S1E4 An Affair of Honor.

We'll be celebrating every moment of a fan-favourite scene, despairing with Pen as her night goes from bad to worse and grabbing our seconds as we head off for an early morning duel.

What a barb, what an episode!

Why does no one talk about the look Colin gives before his barb line??!?! Like he 1000% was admiring Penelope's assests. 😈😈😈Those eyes were much too low to be watching her face.

I wonder if Colin being dressed like Gregory less of him being infantilized and more of Gregory wanting to dress like the brother he admires.

Another prediction you got right! Penelope dancing with Debling while Colin watches devastated !

I'm also in a barb-ie world and I choose to ignore the rest of the episode... What is pain, I don't know her... Just barbin my way through

Recently found your podcast and am catching up on the episodes. YES, the "what a barb" moment is my fave Polin show moment because it is the only scene of them that has a sexual charge to it. It's the only scene where I come close to feeling like Shondaland may actually care about Polin. For the rest of the Polin scenes, I mostly feel like the writers are doing what they think they have to because they know Polin has to end up together. Anyway, your love for Polin is so great and I can't wait to listen to the rest of your podcast because this couple is one of my OTPs! 💛

I don’t fully blame Penelope for what she said to Eloise. I feel that Eloise, even unintentionally keeps forcing her opinions onto everyone else including Penelope.

Penelope needs to not be too reserved and Eloise can’t read minds, but Eloise should not expect Penelope to believe in everything she does. Just because Eloise doe not believe in marriage does not mean Penelope feels that way. I wonder if Penelope feels that if she expresses the opposite view, Eloise would not listen or respect her.
