Marie Antoinette season 2 episode 5 spoilers:

Next week on PBS, Marie Antoinette season 2 episode 5 is going to arrive — so is there something more we can say about it now?

First and foremost here, we really should just point out that we have very-much reached a pivotal point in the story. We are halfway done with the season and by virtue of that, it does feel fair to say that the chaos and the drama surrounding the title character is only going to escalate. We’ve said this before, but we do not believe that anyone is going to necessarily rush the ultimate endgame here is. Since a lot of people know a thing or two about that now, the cast and crew may be relishing everyone in between. This is, after all, when they are able to add a lot of new wrinkles to characters beyond the history books.

Below, you can see the full Marie Antoinette season 2 episode 5 synopsis to get a better sense as to what exactly lies ahead:

When Marie Antoinette is implicated in the diamond necklace theft, she is determined to prove her innocence and punish those responsible.

What does this punishment look like? Well, it could be a big part of what accelerates the narrative the rest of the way here. What happens when someone like her feels cornered? Of course, she is going to lash out, and that is going to lead to a real escalation — and quite possibly, a lot of different opinions from those around her. If you have enjoyed the show so far, odds are you will appreciate everything else that is left. After all, there are only so many opportunities a year to watch an entire series built around a historical figure.

What do you most want to see moving into Marie Antoinette season 2 episode 5 when it arrives?
