Mr. Darcy.
Elizabeth Bennet I don't care to be paraded like a herd of heifers at a farm auction.
Elizabeth Bennet (to Darcy when the bridge was blown up)
From the very first moment I beheld you, my heart was irrevocably caught.

Scenes with Elizabeth Bennet
8 scenes
(to Bingley)
Carelessness when dealing with a zombie infection can lead to your abrupt demise.
Elizabeth Bennet (suddenly by his side)
Arrogance can lead to yours!
(irate)
Your defect, Miss Bennet, besides eavesdropping... is to willfully misunderstand people.
Elizabeth Bennet And yours is to be unjustly prejudiced against them.
Lizzy, an unhappy alternative is before you. Your mother will never speak to you again if you do not marry Mr. Collins. And I will never speak to you again if you do.
(suddenly outraged)
Who will maintain you when your father is dead? No one, Elizabeth Bennet! You shall become a poor and pathetic spinster!
Elizabeth Bennet (almost in tears)
Anything! Anything is to be preferred or endured rather than marrying without affection!
Miss Bennet, although I know many consider you to be decidedly inferior. There's a matter of your birth, family and circumstances. My feelings will not be repressed. In vain, I struggled. I've come to feel for you a most ardent admiration and regard which has overcome my better judgment. (takes a knee) So now I ask you most fervently to end my turmoil and consent to be my wife.
Elizabeth Bennet (slightly shocked)
If I could feel gratitude, I would now thank you. But I cannot. I never desired your good opinion and you have certainly bestowed it most unwillingly.
(getting to his feet)
Might I be informed why, with so little endeavor at civility, I am rejected?
Elizabeth Bennet You intentionally ruined the happiness of my most beloved sister. Do you deny it?
I have no wish to deny it. I did everything in my power to separate my friend from your sister.
Elizabeth Bennet (forcibly kicks him back)
How could you?!?
I believe her to be indifferent.
Elizabeth (enraged as she throws books at him)
Indifferent?!? She's shy!!! (stops and advances on him) Did you suggest to Mr. Bingley that his fortune had some bearing on the matter?!?
I wouldn't do your sister the dishonor, though it was suggested.
Elizabeth Bennet (as she open the door)
And yet we endure it.
I have urgent business to attend to. A falsehood of the most scandalous nature has reached me. That you intend to unite with my own nephew Mr. Darcy. Is it true?
Elizabeth Bennet I do not possess your frankness, your ladyship. You may ask questions I may not choose to answer.
Let me be rightly understood, Miss Bennet. Darcy has been promised since infancy to my daughter.
Elizabeth Bennet You have no reason to suppose he made me an offer.
(holding a letter)
Wickham's run off with Lydia. She's barely more than a child. I never could have imagined my own face so improper. To be such a blaggard. What do we do?
Elizabeth Bennet (noticing the seal on the paper)
These letters. I know where she is.
Miss Bennet, what possible cause would the two of you have for leaving Hertfordshire and entering into the inbetween?
Elizabeth Bennet If adventures will not befall a young lady in her own village, she must seek them abroad... We had no choice. Wickham has run off with Lydia. He's taken her to where his zombie aristocrats congregate. St. Lazarus.
Elizabeth Bennet Hingham Bridge is behind us. London's over there. Which direction are you looking in, Mr. Bingley? (realizing what's going on) St. Lazarus. Darcy lied.
Mr. Bingley
To spare you. He'd risk anything for you, Miss Bennet.
Elizabeth Bennet I must know, Mr. Wickham. What is amiss between you and Mr. Darcy?
Are you much acquainted with him?
Elizabeth Bennet More than I wish to be. He's been here for less than a month and already the least popular man in the county.
Yes. It always gives me great pain to see him. I've been connected to his family since infancy. My father managed the late Mr. Darcy's estate. Darcy and I grew up together. His father treated me like a second son. I cannot begin to do justice to his kindness. He bequeathed me with the best living in his gift. I had my heart set on joining the church. But when he was slain in the 2nd battle of Kent, Darcy ignored his wishes and gave my living to another man.
Elizabeth Bennet What could've induced him to pay you so cruelly?
Pride. He thought me too low to be worth his consideration. I loved his father dearly so I can never expose Darcy or challenge him to a duel.
