Previously on Allworld Online:
Olivia receives some strange messages written in tea stains, which only further set her on edge. During the next appointed logout window, she attempts to track down Priya Burman, only to discover that Priya has been “reassigned” to another project. Olivia isn’t sure she buys this story, and says as much to Colin. Now that she has nobody else to talk to about the weirdness she’s been experiencing in the game, she shares everything with him. Back in the game, Olivia visits Grace’s character in Hunsford, where she learns that Charles Bingley has vanished, meaning Holden is the next player to vanish. Olivia shares her fears with Colin, taking comfort in his presence and agreeing to logout--for good--as soon as she meets up with Nel and warns her of the danger as well. But just as Olivia is leaving Hunsford, she learns that Grace, too, has vanished.

EPISODE 4: A More Gentleman-like Manner
Olivia continues to notice strange occurrences within Pride and Prejudice, and she plans to use her next logout to uncover exactly what's going on. But something unimaginable has happened, and she is forced to seek out a new ally to help her uncover the truth.

Previously on Allworld Online:
Olivia Crawford entered Pride and Prejudice and learned that she had been cast in the role of Elizabeth Bennet. Early on, Olivia notices some strange glitch-flashes that reveal that not everyone is who they seem. Later, at the Meryton Assembly, she discovers that the taciturn Colin has been cast as her love interest, Mr. Darcy. Also at the Assembly, Olivia discovers that Priya Burman, her gaming party’s liaison and project lead over all of Austentopia has secretly joined the game in the guise of another player. Priya tells Olivia to inform her if she notices anything else through the strange glitch-flashes. Olivia discovers that William St. George has entered the game disguised as George Wickham, and when she seeks out Priya to let her know, she learns that Priya--and the character she was playing--has vanished entirely from the game.

EPISODE 6: A Natural Defect
Olivia and Colin race against the clock to reach Nel before the game claims her. But will they make it to Longbourn in time?
Previously on Allworld Online:
Olivia and Nel discuss the logout issue and vow to stick together to prevent either one of them from vanishing like some of the other players. Their pact, however, is challenged when Olivia is faced with Elizabeth Bennett’s plotted trip to Derbyshire. Olivia manages to convince Mr. Bennett to allow Nel to come with her on the trip, but watches in horror as Mr. Bennett is replaced by an imposter right before her eyes, and Nel is forced to remain behind. Feeling doomed, Olivia leaves Longbourn with her in-game aunt and uncle (who have also been replaced by imposters), her only solace that she will soon be reunited with Colin--assuming he’s still in the game. Colin and Olivia do reunite and Pemberley, and they agree to a wild and wacky plan that just might ensure their safety by preventing the game and the imposters from separating them ever again--they run off to Gretna Green and get married.
