Summary
"I went into your room to look for you because I needed to tell you the truth!" Penelope shouted, pointing a trembling finger directly at Marina. "I went there to tell you that Marina is cheating on you. She is pregnant, Colin and you are not the father!"
The room fell into a dead, horrified silence.
Marina’s smirk vanished instantly, replaced by a look of profound, fabricated shock. She let out a sharp gasp, covering her mouth as tears immediately flooded her eyes.
"Colin, no!" Marina cried, turning to him and grabbing his hands. "Yes, I'm pregnant—I was going to surprise you tonight, I swear it! But it's yours. How could you say something so horrible, Penelope? Just because you got caught stealing!"
"She is lying!" Penelope screamed, taking a step forward. "Colin, please, you have to believe me, she's using you!"
"Shut up!" Colin roared, stepping in front of Marina to shield her from Penelope. His face was flushed with pure rage. "Just shut up, Penelope! Don't you dare defile her name to cover up what you've done!"

Summary
“You have the face of a tortured man, whose wedding night did not happen.”
Colin glares. “Careful of the words you speak, Debling.”
“Much like you should have been careful with your actions?” Debling counters. The reminder of the interrupted dance has Colin tense. “I wanted to be the honourable man, Bridgerton, but if you have changed your mind, then rest assured I will not let Penelope slip through my fingers, for she remains the only kindred spirit I found in this dreadful city. I may not be able to offer her love, but perhaps security and comfort shall be enough if that is what love looks like.” The gentleman raises his glass and then dares to set it down on the table without taking a single sip.
Or. Colin already has enough to deal with without Lord Alfred bloody Debling waltzing back into his space and pointing out how miserable he looks. (a small 3x08 rewrite)
