Oh, Sophie had met FW earlier (than her first Berlin visit) in Hamburg, when she'd asked why his coat (German: Rock)was so shabby and short, surely as King he could afford a longer one? That was the first and last time her mother risked Sophie meeting FW. But my point is, Sophie thought the entire court, not just FW, i.e. including Monbijou and SD, being not as splendid as the Braunschweig court, which she praises to the sky as the court where she first encountered splendour and ease of company and which gave her her first impressions on how a court should be. And that definitely wasn't an opinion shared by SD and daughters. ;)
