What makes it funny?
Poppy tries to tackle the ring search with Poirot’s composure, then remembers how much champagne she has drunk. Her efforts to reassure herself keep collapsing into more alarming possibilities.
The comedy at work
Poppy explains her own bad decisions at breathless length. Sam prefers terse messages, leaving her plenty of room to misunderstand him and interfere.
Try this if…
The appeal is screwball romance with an anxious, impulsive heroine and a reserved businessman. Enjoying elaborate misunderstandings will help.
Good to know
Poppy is already engaged when she meets Sam. Wedding complications share the plot with a scandal at his company.
