Nicola Coughlan looking pensive in the Bridgerton Season 3 finale
The Big Picture They say three people can keep a secret if two of them are dead, and at the rate this Lady Whistledown secret is traveling through the ton... let's just be grateful Bridgerton is a romance series and not a horror one. With Season 3 Episode 7 ending on Cressida finally cluing into Penelope's secret, it feels things are about to blow wide open in the finale, "Into the Light," though perhaps not in the way Cressida expected.
Meanwhile, Lady Danbury visits Queen Charlotte to talk over the latest development in the Whistledown saga: her wholesale accusation of the entire Bridgerton family. Lady Danbury wonders what comes next after Lady Whistledown is named. The Queen will have won, but then what? She goes on to add that maybe Lady Whistledown isn't trying to beat the Queen at her own game but merely remain a player, something Lady Danbury says reminds her of Charlotte when she was younger.
Colin instead goes to the Cowpers' home to talk to Cressida alone. He notices she seems lonely in the plan she's concocted for herself, and says he felt the same while away traveling. If he thought telling a girl currently locked in the house about his gap year abroad was going to help matters, he was sorely mistaken.
He tells her he will be filing a report that will see the Featherington estate given to the next eligible heir, and so it appears all her encouragement to have babies as soon as possible was for naught. He leaves just as Penelope arrives, but not before she overhears that the money her mother had was stolen.
At Tilley's, Benedict arrives for a little rendezvous, and finds the lady of the house alone. Paul, she explains, is with someone else that night, and Benedict is keen to possibly invite someone else to join them instead. Tilley says that she'd rather have Benedict for herself for the evening, since her relationship with Paul is casual, and she's beginning to fall for Benedict. She suggests they take things in a more serious direction, but Benedict doesn't want anything serious.
Queen Charlotte takes her leave, and the mood in the room is awkward and subdued until Phillipa declares it's time for Varley to release the "bugs." It's not as chaotic as it sounds, as Varley merely releases butterflies into the room — which are still bugs, and I personally would have started screaming regardless — which charms the crowd enough that the party can resume right away.
