    Summary

    "What are you all so excited about?" Penelope asks.
    Philippa is nearly bouncing in her seat when she says, "Lord Whistledown!"
    Penelope shakes her head. "I thought you read Lady Whistledown the other day?”
    "No, you dimwit," Prudence says. "LORD Whistledown."
    "Lord…what?" Penelope snatches the pamphlet out of Portia's hand - a gasp of surprise that Penelope barely hears coming from her mother - and begins to read what it right in front of her.

    LORD WHISTLEDOWN
    A gentleman's pamphlet and attempt to woo
    Published alarmingly and biweekly for the ton

In the process, both learn more than they bargained for about the identities they have shown the ton all along.
