The series begins with Steinfeld's Dickinson composing poetry in her bedroom when she's interrupted by her sister, Lavinia (Anna Baryshnikov), who tells her that their mother wants her to fetch a pail of water. When Emily asks why their brother, Austin (Adrian Enscoe), can't do it, Lavinia reminds her that "he's a boy." "That's bulls—," Emily fires...
We last left Emily and Sue in bed together, mourning over the fact that once the latter lady is married, they will no longer be able to sleep with one another (double entendre, surely). The fiancé in question, Austin Dickinson, barges in on the two girls: "I don't know how the two of you fit into such a tiny bed," he says. For a sensual guy, he rea...
Dickinson is Sue and Emily's love story and the rest of the Dickinsons are just living in it. "Wild Nights" opens on Emily caught in a shipwrecking storm, calling after Sue, who's about to jump ship. Emily awakes from the nightmare with a gasp of breath, lifting her head from her desk pillow, which is actually scraps of parchment featuring her newe...
Emily takes a page out of David Thoreau's book (literally) and reads his book Waldenunder the comforting shade of a flourishing oak tree. George Gould, who clearly will not take no for an answer, inquires after Emily's reading material while offering her "a drag"— which the boy is already being. Emily romanticizes Thoreau's solitary existence and s...
Emily and Mr. Dickinson play a nifty round of Old Maid: "Poor father, you old spinster. It's your own fault, you know. There were many men who wanted to marry you, but you said no to them all." He smirks at the irony of his daughter's statement and humors her: "I'd rather be a spinster than a wife. I think a spinster has more independence." Mrs. Di...
The household is sitting at the breakfast table contemplating Emily's impending death, as she has a headache "like thunder." But like most youngsters, she's just playing sick to take a day to herself. In the meantime, Lavinia has commissioned artist Thomas Elliot Moody to paint a portrait of her, and my money is on it being for Joseph. "Your vanity...
The circus has come to Amherst, but oh it's not a "suitable place for young ladies!" Nothing is suitable for young ladies, according to Mr. Dickinson. Simultaneously it's election season, and Mr. Dickinson's biggest competition is the "Know Nothing" party, and they are hell-bent on holding immigrants responsible for all the country's problems. "It ...
Mr. Dickinson heads to Washington for the next few months as he won the congressional seat. The whole family on Christmas Eve is there to see him off, except for Emily. Shocker. The patriarch goes to her room and asks if she's upset that he's leaving, and she coldly tells him, "No, I am upset that flowers don't grow in winter." Due to some neuralgi...
Nothing like a Sunday morning sermon to kick start the week, especially when the message is all about death, accompanied by a flashback to all the moments Emily and Ben have ever spent together. Ben's still alive (how dare this show scare me like that?), but still with that dreadful cough. When Ben shows up at the Dickinson doorstep later that wint...
This time, Emily stops for death. Ben passed away way too soon, and now she stops by his grave day after day. The grieving writer is forced to put these visits on hold for a "happier" occasion: Sue and Austin's wedding. Or at least, it should be happy. The bride grows paranoid that her dress fits less as the wedding draws near. She tells Em that sh...
