A very straightforward story that has Darcy explain to all the Bennets his relationship to Wickham and why they are estranged. This corrects their impression of Darcy, and their second impression is much more favorable. Without the misunderstandings, Darcy and Elizabeth much more quickly reach their HEA, as do Bingley and Jane. Amazing how unromantic it is when everything runs smoothly.
