Don't get me started on the grammatical faux pas of using "them" for "him." People didn't do that back then! GRR!
That was my thought, too! It was so jarring - obviously it was so that Darcy's words could refer to Elizabeth as well, but we were perfectly capable of making the inference without that grammatical hiccup.
I thought the bedroom scene was so awkward, though. I spent the whole time muttering, "I don't want to see this, this is so inappropriate, is it over yet???"
