It would leave Penelope to rush to find Benedict and warn him.

That way, Benedict can rush to the local jail with Violet to save her.

So far,the show has done an excellent job excluding the Bridgerton men’s toxic characteristics.

However,Bridgertonshould leave out the events that follow.

Instead of constantly seeking her out to harass her, Benedict and Sophie can coincidentally run into each other.

That way, the essence ofBenedict and Sophie’s love story inBridgertonremains the same while altering the problematic aspects.

From Shondaland and creator Chris Van Dusen, Netflix’sBridgertonis based on the romance novels of the same name by author Julia Quinn. The series follows the eight Bridgerton siblings, Anthony, Benedict, Colin, Daphne, Eloise, Francesca, Gregory, and Hyacinth, as they search for love during the social season and navigate life in Regency-era England.

As a result,Kate needs a storyline forBridgertonseason 4.

They are both independent women with strong values.

Kate would be the perfect friend for Sophie, someone to have in her corner when she feels alone.

Penelope is another Bridgerton sister-in-law that Sophie can turn to since they also have some commonalities.

In an ideal world, Sophie would befriend both Kate and Penelope.

However,ifBridgertononly allows Sophie to interact with one sister-in-law, it should be Kate.

These scenes provided additional characterization for Simon Basset and Anthony Bridgerton, respectively.

As a result,Bridgertonimproved Kate Sharma’s character.

Jess Brownell allowed Yerin Ha to choose Sophie’s last name, Baek.

Therefore,the secondary storylines inBridgertonseason 4 should help move Benedict and Sophie’s story along by connecting somehow.

Sophie can relate to Alice and Will’s working-class background.

Therefore,Bridgertonseason 4 should include Benedict and Sophie’s wedding, even if it is impromptu.

John and Francesca’s wedding is small and simple; Benedict and Sophie’s could be similar.

Realistically, there are only two possibilities forBridgertonseason 5: Eloise and Francesca.

Ideally, Eloise should be next, but not because her story is overdue.

Eloise and Phillip’s book romance depends on demonizing Phillip’s late wife, Marina Thompson.

Phillip is also arguably the most dislikedBridgertonhero.

To avoid all this trouble,Bridgertonseason 4’s finale should not refer to season 5’s leads.
