Following Colonel Darcy's failure to prevent the slaughter of the inhabitants of Netherfield Park during a whist-party, due to [[TooDumbToLive the hostess's refusal to tell him of a second potential zombie infectee]], the place is acquired by Darcy's friend Captain Bingley, much to the delight of Mrs. Bennet, and the indifference of her husband and eldest daughters, who are rather more concerned with their potential survival than their matrimonial prospects. At their first meeting at the Meryton assembly, Darcy succeeds in mortifying Elizabeth's pride, only to rapidly change his mind upon seeing her prowess in combat. Elizabeth, however, despises him, which is only encouraged by the arrival of Lieutenant Wickham, who tells her of the great wrong Darcy has done him.
