"However, Benedict arrives late to the ball because he fancies a "dose of merriment" at a bohemian club where things are much more liberated than the rest of the ton. As well as giving a small but warm nod to another handsome man, possibly an indication of another past dalliance, Benedict reconnects with Louis (Sachin K. Sharma) who greets the Bridgerton by placing his hand on his hip."
""I cannot tonight," Benedict says as Louis caresses his side and arm. After Louis disparages whatever "shocking society event" Benedict must have to go to based on his outfit, Benedict repeats that he can't stay for long. "Well, I don't need you for a long time," replies Louis. "And much merriment can be had in a rather short time," he adds flirtatiously before the two then kiss and the scene cuts away."
Season four episode one centers on Benedict Bridgerton taking the lead as he searches for the Lady in Silver, Sophie Baek, who is revealed to be the maid of Lady Araminta. Benedict arrives late to his family's masquerade ball after visiting a bohemian club where social boundaries are more liberated. At the club he reconnects with Louis, who greets him intimately; they kiss in a brief encounter. The moment functions as an explicit acknowledgement of Benedict’s queerness and prompted fan celebration and speculation about his future romantic choices, even as the series continues the Cinderella-style arc with Sophie.
