the great season 2 (2021) - peter catches catherine's attention scene

[@dianabeloved]

I love this monologue because it is a parallel to Catherine’s monologue about her expectations of having sex in the first episode. It’s like his speech is everything she dreamed of and wanted to hear.

[@samf.s.7731]

Totes would have happened if he didn't fuck kill her mom out the window.... That pretty much sealed the deal on the fact that this isn't gonna happen. Dear God this show is something though 😂😂

[@Drekromancer]

Fuck, I didn't quite put that together. But you're absolutely right.

[@calistalawson741]

“I have no idea how that went.” Was probably the best part.

[@yvettemarshallTWN]

It went well for me, don’t know about anyone else! 😍The part about…heck, all of what he said is yes! 💎 Passionate coupling is powerful creation energy. 😘

[@petekdemircioglu]

[@findme7585]

I seriously think I lost my breath when Peter started his speech, it was so shockingly romantic that I still can’t believe it happened

[@DaisyDee5610]

Loving Catharine’s reaction- she couldn’t believe it either.

[@Sweet_Venom0027]

this was the kind of thing she had hoped for when she first got there and he seems to be becoming the man she had initially wanted. But at this point has too much happened to move forward together or is he worth taking that risk on?

What happened, you climaxed?

[@samf.s.7731]

Yeah did someone else write that for him? Because it's uncharacteristically well composed... This is the guy who asked if she was afraid thinking that her baby may have a knife, while she was pregnant 🤣

[@Swissswoosher]

I love how Peter never stops flirting and loving her unrequitedly and she tries not to be attracted.

Elle did the "heaving bossom" thing quite well.

And the fact that being pregnant makes your hormones go crazy so she's probably horny as hell. 🤣

That reminds me of Martha May from the Grinch, it definitely is a thing lol

As if she learned it from Olivia Hussey.

[@BS-ne5cr]

The chemistry between the two actors makes the show even better. The writing is fantastic!

[@sophie.at_]

Hottest toxic duo i know. Their chemistry is just OUT of this world. Please let them burn the world with their romantism and hotness in season 3 i guess?! ❤

[@samf.s.7731]

The perfect toxic duo, I don't think I've ever seen it so weirdly working 😂😂😂

[@josephjagusah8668]

It's not exactly toxic, he's just really bad at being king so she had to depose him. Nothing personal.

[@opheliaretardanta8348]

At 1:28 if anybody wants to know that’s when Peter starts his speech about his love with Catherine 🥰

[@martinpitt8976]

I think that is supposed to parallel Catherine’s monologue about sex in the first episode! Maybe

[@withluvy6550]

0:18 she should’ve said “ I didn’t know u could read” in malfoy tone HAHAHA

[@izzy_moo]

the way that’s how she described love when she first went to the place to meet him

[@alphaking3294]

Exactly. I was looking for this comment. It’s like the list she made when she arrived happened. Even the way she wanted to make love with him.

[@ShmaylaRay]

I love the scenes they did like this when you feel the scene is about to end and then the character comes back in the room or there is a last minute revelation. It gives so much atmosphere.

[@majatadic549]

2:20....🥰😁 Exactly my reaction too after this little speech.

[@mccnbinnie9840]

Elle has really bodied her character as Catherine- this scene was immaculate

[@bruceismay5440]

I love the poshness of it all just filled with tiny breaks into swearing and more common speech makes that way of speaking feel human

[@liztheresalapatt155]

He would've made an excellent smut writer

[@miraafloyd]

What an interesting development. I didn’t see this in Peter. If he was this kinda man from the start there wouldn’t have been an issue lol 😂

[@pinkparis]

Yeah because in the beginning she was all prepared to give him all the love but he was so awful to her.

[@bappisarker3076]

Very smooth Peter lol

[@DD-lc8ei]

I was extremely amused, when she said YOU are my prisoner.

[@aleigna9068]

This may be not the historical one, but if this might be the historical one, it's so awesome.

[@lexicoger]

In this moment he was written by a woman

[@samf.s.7731]

Is that true? I mean, it would make sense ...

[@Eltee127]

Fun fact for u my luv. Women are less romantics than men are. Some of the most romantic, beautiful speeches, movies, books ever written by are by men. A man only has to be inspired by his woman to take her to the deepest places mentally, emotionally, spiritually and physically. 😊

[@catinheels88]

Haha I like how Peter flicked to the front of the book before he mentioned what he was reading so maybe he didn't know either 😅

[@lavenderblossomish9341]

This is act happens in a extreme toxic love, where passion is there, but feelings were always hurt.

[@bunnymoon9130]

Peter’s speech made ME skip a few heartbeats, can’t imagine how it went for Catherine

[@vampiring]

their chemistry is so so strong, i truly cannot get over it, and i don't think i can ever do :")

[@majestymaeve4253]

He had me when he paused her to finish reading.

[@123dilara1]

*SPOILER ALERT* It is genius writing there... everything he said here actually became true.

Omg I just realized she actually does!

[@nelsonchereta816]

Yeah, she has no feelings for him at all.

[@Beerbottles123]

That 'Tony Stonem' charm

[@w1o2l3f4i5e]

Catherine's memoirs depict Peter as "an idiot and a drunkard, prone to brutal practical jokes and interested only in playing soldier." He was a deeply unpopular ruler, and after less than half a year a substantial faction had already begun conspiring to overthrow him.

[@mesmer3780]

When you really think about it, it's a pretty terrible insult to Catherine to portray their relationship like this. He was a sociopathic moron and she loathed him.

[@what8562]

He was deeply unpopular with the Russian equivalent of the Praetorian Guard but quite popular elsewhere. Conspiracies to overthrow Elizabeth, or Peter, or to replace Peter with a different royal started at the point Elizabeth selected him as her heir.

[@solangemorell2048]

Yep, but this show is not historically accurate at all, and they make sure to tell us that over and over again. They even have a disclaimer before each episode 😂

[@micheleford4282]

maybe so but she is on record as morning him deeply and being highly pissed off when someone had him murdered so there is that as well. relationships are complicated.

[@Kelly-uw1xr]

Well, her son also hated her and did everything to honor his father. History is written by winners

[@angelaerdelyi2195]

Love how he says that she will fall in love with him and that they will you know and then they actually do

I’ve only seen this show in clips on youtube. Have they ever actually been intimate with one another outside of those highly awkward, official, duty-based encounters where someone was always present in the room with them? I’m wondering whether Peter has any other situations to base his fantasies on.

_Try actually watching the show_ and youll find out whats going on in this scene.

[@henrik5761]

He is of course pretending to read. Even funnier would have been if she had seen through it.

[@ATRAXXUSA]

His love for her was unrequited so he began to read books, along with an interest in science and the arts in order to cast a vale a mystery over himself, the idea that there was more to him that she hadn’t known in order to spark her curiosity and fondness of him. So yes he was manipulating her so she would love him back but as he manipulated her he also kinda manipulated himself into truly changing into a better man which in turn made her finally love him back.
