The Gilded Age Episode 5 Story
The bulk of this episode revolves around Betty’s efforts to ingratiate herself with society and Marian’s adjustment to living with her previously estranged aunts. In the future episodes, Peggy’s new role as a secretary to a wealthy white woman will put her in a position of balancing the world she comes from while dealing with radical and sexist hostility. These plotlines will drive the drama for months to come. Fellowers pitched The Glided Age to network as Robert and Cora Crawley’s story during the Glided Age, so comparisons between them and the Russells are inevitable.
Period drama as a genre thrives on retelling many of the same stories with subtle or bold changes each time. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Many of these comparisons are based on the notion that similarities are either unoriginal or bad.
So, basically, the story is about, Marian, accompanied by aspiring novelist Peggy Scott, who comes into contact with one of her aunts, a scion of the old money set, and her immensely wealthy neighbors, a ruthless tycoon and his ambitious wife, George, and Bertha Russell.
