Penelope is afraid Eloise is going to figure out she's Lady Whistledown, so she comes up with a new plan to make sure her pages are printed with no one finding out. She conspires with Madame Delacroix (Kathryn Drysdale) to use her dress deliveries to get her pages to the print shop. But when the queen tries to pin the whole operation on Eloise, Penelope has to act fast to prove her friend's innocence.
Penelope writes a damning article about Eloise's unchaperoned friendship with Theo, knowing there's no way Eloise would write such ruinous things about herself, which gives the Queen pause. But when Penelope slips up at the ball and shares some of her recent gossip with Eloise, her best friend puts all the pieces together and realises she's the one behind Lady Whistledown — and the one who put Eloise's reputation, and her friend Theo, in danger. Eloise tells Penelope she never wants to speak to her again.
Though Penelope vowed to stop writing as Lady Whistledown, the blowup with Eloise and drama with Colin fuel her need to keep writing.
