Tear Jerker / Wishbone S 2 E 04 Groomed For Greatness

Go To

  • In Great Expectations adaptation, Pip visits Estella one more time to confess he loves her, even though she's already engaged to someone else. Unfortunately, Estella has nothing in her heart to return the sentiment and just brushes it off indifferently.
    Pip/Wishbone: Miss Havisham, just because your heart was broken long ago, you've turned Miss Estella's heart into a block of ice.
  • Following that, Miss Havisham regretting how Estella turned out. She only meant for Estella to avoid the same heart-ache she felt when her own fiancĂ©e abandoned her at the altar. She fails to notice that her bridal gown catches on fire, and though Pip saves her by smothering the flames, it's implied she succumbs to the burns later on.
