More than a chill is in the air when the gang heads to Scotland for a festive getaway in The Buccaneers 1×06, “It’s Christmas.” Even though the characters will have some time for fun in the snow (It’s great to see Conchi smiling!), they are heading into this holiday season with the stress that comes from having more questions than answers. After all, The Buccaneers 1×05, “Failed Betrayal,” leaves the entire ensemble in precarious situations.
For instance, Lizzy Elmsworth turns the tides against Lord James Seadown to force him to reclaim the shame he put upon her and to protect Jinny St. George from him. Now, Lizzy will make a confession during “It’s Christmas.” Perhaps she will tell Jinny about James’ monstrous behavior towards her, spurring Jinny to open up about her own experiences. Hopefully, it won’t be too late because James’ behavior will escalate, too.
Meanwhile, Nan faces a hard choice during “It’s Christmas.” While “Failed Betrayal” makes it seem like all is said and done between Nan and Guy (He literally puts the dwindling flames out!), three episodes remain in The Buccaneers‘s first season. It would be strange for the show to fold up its central love triangle this quickly, and one could perceive Nan’s expression as one of doubt in the photo below. So, there may be another twist coming.
However, it’s entirely plausible that Nan’s difficult decision has nothing to do with a man and everything to do with the women in her life. The Buccaneers 1×04, “Homecoming,” is such a successful outing because it hinges on Nan’s relationship with Patricia. So, who’s to say the drama doesn’t do something similar again? Either way, “It’s Christmas” must make space for Mabel and Honoria to clear the air after their heartbreaking ending last week.
