Scarlett

Storyline

It's another day (Melanie's funeral, in fact), and Scarlett is determined to win back Rhett (who's spending a lot of time with Belle Watling). First, she goes to Tara and spats with Suellen over there. Then she goes to Charleston, presenting herself to Rhett's mother and friends, to his dismay. But when she's caught in a compromising position with Ashley, she retires to her mother's people in Savannah, and her overbearing grandfather, Robelard, while Rhett courts a new bride. Scarlett also seeks out her relatives and meets her cousin, Colum, a priest (and gunrunner). And knowing them, she goes to Ireland. There she meets the handsome Earl of Fenton, who owns Ballyhara, the ancestral home of the O'Haras. And when she buys it from him, she becomes the financial and spiritual head of the family. But her newfound happiness is short-lived as disasters strike, and she must rely on Rhett's love for her to save her from the gallows.
