The Gilded Age Season 3 picks up after the dramatic Season 2 finale, where Bertha Russell secured a social victory in the Opera War by luring the Duke of Buckingham (Ben Lamb) to the Metropolitan Opera, but at the cost of promising her daughter Gladys's hand in marriage—an act that enraged her husband, George. The official logline sets the stage: 'The American Gilded Age was a period of immense economic and social change, when empires were built, but no victory came without sacrifice.'
