Contains spoilers and speculations for 'A Gentleman in Moscow' Episode 6
MOSCOW, RUSSIA: With the romantic story of Count Alexander Ilyich Rostov (Ewan McGregor) and actress Anna Urbanova (Mary Elizabeth Winstead), the historical setting of Paramount+'s 'A Gentleman in Moscow' is brimming with passion.
Based on Amor Towles's novel of the same name, the series tells the gripping tale of Rostov, a former nobleman who moves into the Hotel Metropol's attic after being placed under house imprisonment by a Bolshevik court.
As Rostov begins to spend time at the hotel, he meets the endearing actress Anna, and their sexual tension eventually gets the best of them.
Although the two maintained a distance in the public eye, Anna's latest decision could only deepen their connection.
Anna Urbanova reveals the true reason behind her return to Hotel Metropol
Sofia (Beau Gadsdon), Rostov's adoptive daughter, is spotted getting piano lessons from Victor but Rostov chastises the young man for feigning to teach in order to flirt with his daughter.
Following the incident, Anna tried to convince Rostov to provide Sofia with the freedom to live her life as she pleases; however, Rostov brushes her off.
Subsequently, Anna learns that Sofia, who was seriously wounded, was brought to the hospital by Rostov. She was shocked as Rostov was prohibited from leaving the hotel building.
Acting on her wits, she instructs the hotel staff to keep the authorities in the dark about Rostov's departure.
Fortunately, all turns out well as Sofia emerges from her operation in a state of safety, while Rostov arrives at the hotel without getting caught, thereby averting suspicion regarding his disappearance.
When questioned where he was, he refused to say, but it was obvious he was indicating that he was with Anna, which she also supports.
Following this, Anna reveals in a heartfelt moment that she cut her tour short because she was missing Sofia and Rostov, and now she has decided to remain permanently at the hotel, leaving Rostov ecstatic with the news.
They were subsequently observed seated together and enjoying Sofia's piano performance, during which Anna extended birthday greetings to Rostov.
How will Anna Urbanova's decision impact her relationship with Alexander Rostov?
As stated in the episode, Anna made it clear to Rostov that she had never intended to remain in the same place since she had left her home, but that she was now prepared to live at the hotel indefinitely for the sake of Rostov.
This proves without a shadow of a doubt that Anna is deeply in love with Rostov and is willing to give up her dreams to be with him.
Now that Anna has decided to remain at the hotel, we may anticipate that their relationship will grow and they will talk more candidly about their feelings.
Additionally, Sofia will be greatly impacted by Anna's decision since Anna will be a motherly figure to her, providing companionship and direction. This might foster the development of a vibrant family inside the hotel's walls.
Overall, with only two episodes remaining, the historical drama is picking up speed. Since Anna and Rostov's connection is now public knowledge, it's reasonable to assume that things will become entertaining from this point on.
