Shrew! - Episode 6 - It Was All Going So Great
Lucentio and Bianca hurry to meet the priest Biondello bribed to perform the marriage. Gremio greets Petruchio, Katherine, Grumio and the real Vincentio at Lucentio’s house, where they are met by the Merchant, who insists that he’s Lucentio’s father. Vincentio challenges him and chaos ensues as Tranio tries desperately to keep up the ruse. The newlyweds finally arrive and seeing no way out, they confess their gambit and beg forgiveness from their fathers. Once all is sorted out, Katherine confronts her father and forces him to reckon with his poor treatment of her. Later, the three newlywed couples (Katherine and Petruchio, Lucentio and Bianca, and Hortension and “The Widow”) celebrate their unions. Bianca and Lucentio are already off to a rocky start as they squabble over how much she’s allowed to eat. Hortensio realizes he may not live long as the widow’s fourth husband. Only Petruchio and Katherine seem to be partners in marriage, and when put to the test, Katherine finds new words to describe the meaning of true love.
