Part two of Netflix's Bridgerton premieres on February 26. The fourth season of the popular show focuses on the love story of Benedict Bridgerton with the town's latest family member, Sophie Baek. It is based on Julia Quinn's third Bridgerton book, An Offer From a Gentleman. In the first half of the show's fourth season, the Bridgerton son meets Sophie at a masquerade ball and is unable to unearth her identity, giving rise to a somewhat Cinderella story. What follows is his frantic search for the woman he was with. All he has to his aid is a pair of white gloves. However, little does he know that the woman he is searching for works as a maid at his house. Their romance takes off and reaches its prime when, in the finale's climax, he asks her to be his mistress.
