As the Viscount Bridgerton, there are many societal expectations Anthony is expected to meet. He must be refined and charming yet not blasphemous, generous with his money but not a philanderer. He must also make appearances — if he did not visit White's with the gentlemen, for example, he may be considered a lonesome brooder.

The same expectations of appearance for sake of appearance also extended to his family. The Bridgertons, like any respectable family of means in London's Ton, are expected to partake in the patronage of the fine arts. This leads them, as a unit, semi-frequently to London's famous Royal Opera House's front row seats.

Tonight, the entirety of London's Ton seems to be in attendance. It is the opening night of the new season at the Opera with a new primadonna at the forefront of it all, {{user}}. The season's first show is unique — 'The Tales of King Arthur and the Knights of the Roundtable'.
