Directed by: Douglas MacKinnon Written by: Toni Graphia First aired on April 30, 2016 The episode begins with someone removing the pin from a coach wheel and then putting the cover (hubcap) back on. He has a large birthmark on his right hand. The next schene has Jamie (Sam Heughan) and Duverney (Marc Duret) playing cards at a palace with Claire watching. Duverney asks the couple if they've thought of a name for their baby. Claire jumps in saying she was thinking of Lambert if it is a boy, after her uncle. Jamie didn't like that idea much — too English sounding. His suggestion is Dalhousie, after Dalhousie Castle. Claire argues that it sounds more like a sneeze. The Comte St. Germain wanders by and says in French, "He'll have you in two moves, Fraser." Jamie realizes that the Comte is right and concedes the game. Duverney says they should consider it a draw since Jamie is clearly distracted. He prefers a clean victory and looks at Claire meaningfully. Claire guiltily leaves looking for something else to do. A servant offers her a goblet of wine, she drinks some, and gets violently sick. The Comte St. Germain looks on with interest. Jamie picks her up and whisks her away. They're back at Jarad's apartment and Claire is feeling much better. She doesn't think it was poison, but remembers a bitter aftertaste. Maybe Bitter Cascara? Jamie hands her a cup of Marshmallow Leaf tea, which she says should counter the effects. Jamie asks about the bairn, but Claire assures him that the baby should be fine. He asks if she thinks it was the work of St. Germain, and she agrees that he might have bribed a servant to put the Cascara in the wine, and remembers how stragely he was staring at her. Jamie said that if it was St. Germain, he's going to make him suffer, and Claire says she'd pay good money to watch it. But they don't have any proof, and a public scandal could cause the Prince to distance himslef from Jamie (thwarting their plans). Claire is still having some discomfort and asks Jamie to distract her by telling her about what is going on with Duverney. Jamie tells her that Duverney has spoken to the king about supporting Prince Charles, and the prospect of an alliance with England has the king intrigued. Claire says that a Franco-Brittish aliance is a fantasy and that Charles knows that. Jamie tells her that if Charles secures the money from the Duke of Sandringham (Simon Callow) then the king will likely join them as well. He suggests that they host a dinner for the Duke to introduce him to Prince Charles. The Duke will want to get his measure, and they might be able to sour that relationship by staging things so that Charles exposes himself as the delusional poppenjay that he is. Claire agrees that it's a good plan, but Jamie can see by her face that she is upset by it. She says she needs to tell him something, and then reveals that she knows that Jack Randall is still alive, and how she knows. She's expecting Jamie to fly into a rage, but instead, Jamie smiles and says, "This is wonderful news!" He tells her that missing seeing Black Jack Randall die has plagued him for months. Claire is afraid he is going to go back to Scotland, but Jamie reassures her that he is not so foolish to give the hangman a second chance at him, nor is he going to abandon their task, but she's given him something to hold onto, something to look forward to. He sees it as a gift and thanks her, kissing her and her baby bump. The next morning Claire passes Murtagh (Duncan Lacroix) and he notes that Jamie is in an especially cheery mood. She reveals that she told him that Black Jack Randall was still alive. "Don't know what you were so worried about!" and walks off cheerfully. A coach takes her to the steps near the Apothecary. When Claire sees Master Raymond (Dominique Pinon), she tells him sternly that she was violently ill last night. That someone tried to poison her. She almost died, or could have lost her child. She asks him point-blank if he sold Bitter Cascara to St. Germain? He replied that he had only sold it to one person in the last months, a servant he didn't recognize. That person could have been working for Monsieur Comte, but he swore he didn't know. Delphine (Marieme Diouf) interrupts them saying that they are being watched, so he tells Claire to follow him in a safe place. He tells her that the king is not enamored of the mystical arts and they must be wary not to invoke his ire. Claire looks around intrigued by the things on shelves all around her. She picks up a very old looking skull. It looks like a small dinosaur skull. Master Raymond tells her that he's fascinated by things not of this time. Master Raymond senses that there is something on her mind, and she confirms that she's worried about an old friend. He asks her his name, and she tells him it is Frank. Master Raymond asks if he is in danger, and she states that she believes his future is in doubt. "The bones will give us an answer," he replies and pulls out and empty horn glass that appears empty. He asks her to look again, and she sees bones in the bottom. He tells her it was a slight of hand, a trick he does to amuse his customers. She recognizes the bones from when she traveled in Africa with her uncle, but the Zulu use chicken bones. He tells her to cast the bones on a zebra hide that he pulls onto a table. Raymond admits that he can't see Frank's fate, but he is certain she will see him again. She's surprised by this. Master Raymond pulls out a necklace and tells her that for the moment, she is his concern. He gives it to her and says that it will change color in the presence of poison. She asks questioningly if this magic stone will keep her safe. He says that some call it nature and some call it magic, and he can certainly charge more when they do, but for her, "Madonna", today, there is no charge. Then he winks at her. The next scene is in Louise de Rohan's (Claire Sermonne) house where she is showing off her new coocoo clock (it's 4 pm) to Claire and Mary Hawkins (Rosie Day). Claire whispers to Louise that she said it was urgent. Louise asks Mary to fetch some food to feed Collette, her monkey, reminding her to keep her fingers out of the cage. She informs Claire that her monkey bites everyone but her. They sit down and Louise tells Claire that the situation she summoned her for is quite delicate. She hesitantly states that she is with child, and not by her husband as they haven't been intimate in months. She asks Claire, who she assumes knows about such things, to help her. Claire says she can make a decoction of Barberry Leaves and Black Hellebore. Louise looks worried and thinks it sounds evil, and Claire assures her it is nasty stuff, poison really, that will rid her of the child but it can also kill her. Louise asks, "But what other choice do I have?" Claire asks her if she wants the baby, and she assures her that she does because it is hers and her lover's, but if Jules learns of the baby, he'll have their marriage annulled. He could have her arrested for adultery or worse, banish her to a convent. Claire suggests that Jules might be persuaded that the child is his, but Louise is agast that she's suggesting she sleep with her husband. Her lover would be furious! How can she raise a child with a man who is not the father? Claire reasons that the only important thing is that the child is brought up with love. Back at the apartment, Claire is asleep when Jamie cheerfully plops on the bed and kisses her, then starts taking off his clothes and asking about her day. She assumes he'd had a good day too by his attitude. He appears a little tipsy, but climbs on top of her and pulls his shirt off. She notices bite marks on his leg, and asks him about it, incensed. He says, "Yeah, she did get a wee bit carried away." "She? Are you referring to that brunette whore that Fergus is always talking about?" Jamie tells her no, it was a different girl entirely, which didn't help his case any. Claire asks how this different girl entirely managed to bite his thighs. He tells her there is a simple explaination, and she demands to know what it is. He says he doesn't think a gently reared lady like herself would be familiar with the term, "soixante-neuf". Claire storms out of bed telling him that she knows what "sixty-nine" is. Jamie steps in deeper by saying that she was rather insistant about it, while examining the bite marks on both of his thighs. He thinks she would have settled for the six and let the nine go hang. Claire is furious and says, "I suppose she was so insistant you just had to accomodate her!" Jamie jumps off the bed stating emphatically that she has to believe him: nothing happened. Claire asks if she's supposed to believe that he got those bites defending his virtue. And Jamie admits that he was tempted, he wanted to badly, and he was filled with lust. Finally he realizes that he's not explaining the situation properly. Claire agrees, because the only thing he's explained is that while he's barely touched her in months, tonight he was driven mad with passion by some whore. He says, "Yes — No, that's the great thing, don't you see? I've tried for so long to find a way back to you, but to not see that bastard's face every time I take you in my arms, but tonight I started to feel like a man again." Claire yelled, "With another woman!" He reassured her, "Nothing happened! It was you that actually made me believe it was possible in the first place." "Me?" "Aye, you told me Randall was alive, and now I can be the one to end his life. I've lifted something from my heart. I began to feel; I stir up those feelings inside myself, so I can feel that way again with my wife." Claire is distraught! "You had to stir yourself up with a whore before you could bring yourself to be with me!" "No, that's not what... You know I've been struggling for a long time." "Struggling! Do you know what I've been struggling with? Trying to be patient with you, and understanding, and all the while I've been dealing with carrying our child." "Of course I do!" Claire reminds him that they've barely even talked about it. They hadn't even talked about baby names until Duverney brought it up at their STUPID chess game! She feels like she's been going through all of this on her own. But Jamie tells her, "I'm here, with you, and we will have this child together. But I don't think you understand what it's been like for me, since what happened at Wendworth." Claire yells, "Well then TELL ME, God damn it! Talk to me, make me understand!" Jamie thinks for a bit, then says, "There's this place inside me, a place I think everyone has that they keep to themselves. A fortress where the most private part of you lives. Maybe it's your soul. The bit that makes you yourself, and not anyone else. But after Wentworth it was like my fortress had been blown apart. The thing that once lived there was suddenly exposed, out in the open, without shelter, without... That's where I've been ever since, Claire. Naked, alone.Trying to hide under a blade of grass. I think it best I sleep elsewhere tonight." Claire clutches her belly as he leaves the bedroom. Next we see her in her robe looking for Jamie, then opening a door and finding him asleep on a sofa. He wakes up and looks at her as she drops the robe and climbs on top of him. He says, "Claire..." but she stops him with, "Come find me Jamie. Find me; find us." Then they make love very tenderly. A little while later they are laying together and Jamie says, "Remember my telling you I was lost." She counters with, "You were trying to hide under a blade of grass..." He says, "I think, perhaps, you've built me a lean-to, at least, and a roof...to keep out the rain." They hear noises on the roof and Jamie puts his shirt on to investigate. She gets up too and puts on her robe, and he grabs a knife. Then suddenly someone is knocking on the window, calling out "James". Jamie opens it and Prince Charles (Andrew Gower) stumbles in saying, "Forgive me, I don't usually arrive so... without ceremony or at such an unsocial hour." Jamie puts down the knife and says, "My house is at your service, Your Highness." Jamie closes the window and the Prince sits down on a sofa. Jamie makes the introductions. Claire notices that the Prince's right hand is bandaged and asks if he's been hurt. He says indeed he's suffered a ghastly and painful injury, asks if she'll have a look at it, and then demands a whisky too. As she unwraps the makeshift bandage he explains that he found himself in a rather embarrasing position in the house of a "friend". He was forced to flee out the window onto the roof, then realized that their house was just down the road. Then he blurts out, "She swares she loves me countless times, then tonight, she spurns me without warning. We were quarreling when her husband arrived home early. God is forever testing me, placing obstacles in my path. I've overcome every one of them; I'll overcome this one too. I won't be deterred! MARK ME, I will win her back!" As Claire is examining his injury, she informs everyone that she doesn't think it will require sutures and should heal quickly. "It appears to be a bite", looking sideways at Jamie, "An epidemic around here." Prince Charles says, "A pet...it bites everyone apart from her. Ill tempered flea bitten beast." Claire guesses the bite was from a monkey. Later when Jamie and Claire are alone, they're speculating about Charles and Louise. Jamie says it makes sense as they are both dreamers. Claire adds that they both live in a fantasy world, and are perfect for each other. At the same time they both come to the same conclusion, that they can use Charles' and Louise's affair to their advantage. They can invite them both to the dinner they're hosting next week, along with her husband, and if Charles hasn't heard about the baby by then, they can make sure that he does right in front of the Duke, and Charles will come unhinged. They can use Charles' broken heart to break his back. Claire asks if this makes them bad people, and Jamie replies that the way he sees it they're doing a bad thing for a good reason. Claire asks, "Isn't that what all bad people say?" They kiss, and are clearly much more at ease together. One Week Later: The massive dinner table (14 seats) is being set very elegantly by servants as the house prepares for the Duke's dinner party. Claire is leaving the house in a hurry as Jamie reminds her about the party that evening and asks where she's going. She replies that there's been a massive explosion at the Royal Armory and several of the victims have gone to the hospital, besides Madamme Vionnet never lets her near the kitchen and she'd rather go somewhere she's needed. She promises to be home before sunset. Jamie tells her to take Murtagh and Fergus (Romann Berrux) with her. As an aside to Fergus, he tells him to have her home in time for dinner if he expects to eat himself. Fergus gives him his word, and they take off towards the hospital. Later Murtagh and Fergus are waiting for Claire outside the hospital when Mary steps out to inform them that Madamme Fraser asked her to inform them that it would be another hour. Fergus is very upset by this as he'd promised Milord. Mary says they'll hurry. Fergus tells Murtagh that it's a shame Miss Hawkins is so sad. Murtagh disagrees stating that hen was smiling from ear to ear. Fergus is surprised that he couldn't see that she'd been crying. Murtagh insists that he saw no crying, and Fergus tells him that's why he'll die alone, with his hand. Murtagh looks even more dour than usual. Fergus continues to explain things to him, stating that she's promised to Vicomte Marigny, but she's in love with another. Murtagh says, "In love? But you just said that she's sad." Fergus says he knows, but there is a contradition, because, in spite of the crying, she's wearing perfume. And there is a spring in her step, and her "speach that does not flow, now is a sparkling stream." Murtagh has had it and says, "One. I dinna care. Two: A man does not concern himself wi' the affairs of women....&quit; Changing gears, "Suzette, the ladies maid, is she in love with anyone?" Fergus answers, "Her? Oui, with any man that walks past her door." Inside the hospital, Claire is assisting Monsieur Florez (Niall Greig Fulton) who is trying to set a badly broken leg. Mary is helping out too. Monsieur Florez nails a peg into the side of the leg and the man stops yelling, relieved. Claire says that's incredible and asks him what he did. He replies that there is a nerve there, and if you are fortunate enough to pierce it directly, it numbs the sensation in the lower extremity. She holds the foot steady and he sets the bone. He gives her some cream in a jar and says it will ease the pain of the wounds. Mary rubs a generous amount on her hands, and Claire grabs some too. Claire asks what it is, and he says it is "Hanged Man's Grease. Rendered fat from hanged criminals." Another patient cries out and he leaves them. Claire and Mary look at their hands with faces. Claire suggests that Mary step out side for some air, and she replies, "I have to wash my hands first," grabbing a towel as she leaves. Mother Hildegard (Frances de la Tour) approaches Claire as she asks her, "Where would he get such a thing?" She replies that when he's not with them, he serves as His Majesty's Royal Executioner. They take what God sends them. Still the bulk of their physicians are better than nothing, but she says, "You, Madame, are a great deal better than nothing." Claire thanks her. Outside, the groomsman is removing the broken carriage wheel with Murtagh looking on with a frown. Claire leaves the hospital with Mary. Murtagh tells her about the wheel being broken and that he's sent Fergus to tell Jamie that they'll be late. She's frustrated that they'll be late for dinner, and decides that they'll walk home quickly. Back at the apartment guests are starting to arrive. Magnus (Robbie McIntosh), the butler, announces "His Grace, the Honorable Clarence Marlebone, Third Duke of Sandringham." The Duke, along with his secretary, approach Jamie with his hand out for a kiss, and he is all flattery saying, &Jamie, what a vision of elegance, a man who always manages to look fashionable whatever the setting." Jamie welcomes him, then his secretary steps forward with a bow and says, "Pleased to meet you, Lord Broch Tuarach." The Duke states that Alex Randall (Laurence Dobiesz) is his secretary, but then seems excited to tell him that he knows his brother, Captain Randall.There was a second of shocked recognition (they do look alike) then he gathers himself. The Duke tells Alex to run along and assist the servants (he's had his fun). The next two people to be announced are Silas Hawkins (Sion Tudor Owen) and the Vicomte Marigny (Ian Bustard). Jamie welcomes them and deduces that Silas Hawkins is Mary's uncle. Jamie says that his wife is very fond of the lass, and Silas states that she spends entirely too much time engaging in social activity, then introduces the Vicomte Marigny as her fiance. Other couples are introduced and the party is in full swing. The clock shows it's 8 pm and Jamie looks at it worriedly. with the Duke laughing and socializing. Jamie sees Fergus who tells him about the problem with the carriage and that they'll be late. His Royal Highness, Charles Edward Stuart comes in and is introduced. Jamie welcomes him and the Prince says, "High hopes, James. MARK ME, tonight could be a turning point for us." Then Jamie introduces him to Clarence Marlebone, the Third Duke of Sandringham. The duke says, "Such a delight to finally meet you. I've heard such grand praising." The prince says the feeling is quite mutual. More people are coming in... It is getting quite dark as Claire and Mary are walking home with Murtagh. Mary confesses that she's met someone quite wonderful and they've been corresponding for weeks now. He's handsome, and intelligent, and his letters are so eloquent that she couldn't help but fall in love with him. Claire wants to know who his is, and Mary says she shouldn't tell her this, but his name is Randall. Claire stop, stunned, then asks how she met him. Mary tells her she dropped her handkerchief and he picked it up — it was SO romantic. Claire wants to know where, and Mary says it was at Versailles, when she wore the red dress. Claire remembers seeing Mary with Alex Randall and concludes it is Alex that Mary is in love with. Mary confirms, and asks if there is another? Right then someone drops down from a roof-top and attacks Murtagh. Several other masked men run up and they knock Murtagh out. Claire yells for help, and the leader tells one of the men to "Stay with the man." Claire and Mary are fighting them. One of the men tells Claire, "Be still, you English bitch!" One of them hits mary in the face then starts to rape her. He is excited to find out she's a virgin. Claire yells at him to leave her alone. Back at the dinner party, the Comte and Comtesse St. Germain (Gaia Weiss) enter. The Duke of Sandringham took the libery of inviting them. Jamie hides his feelings as he says, "Delighted." Mary is screaming as Claire notices a large birthmark on the right hand of the masked man holding her captive (same guy who sabotaged the carriage wheel at the beginning of the episode). He tells another man to hold her so he can rape her, but that man recognizes her as La Dame Blanche, crosses himself and starts to back away. Claire uses that opportunity to punch the man holding her in the face and run to pull the guy off of Mary. The guy who recognized her as La Dame Blanche tells the other attackers, "Run!...Run! Save your souls!" Murtagh comes around as Claire is clutching a sobbing Mary protectively. Swords are being piled on a table back at the apartment, and General D'Arbanville (Herbert Forthuber) is introduced. Then Louise and her husband Jules, the Marquis de Rohan (Howard Corlett) are introduced, then Jamie greets them and introduces them to Prince Charles Edward Stuart, who seems especially interested in Louise and kisses her hand more than a bit too long. She finally pulls it away. Magnus comes up to Jamie and whispers something and they both leave the house. Suzette (Adrienne-Marie Zitt) holding a candlestick with two lit candles is out the door ahead of them heading to Murtagh (carrying Mary), Fergus and Claire. Jamie rushes up to Claire and asks what happened. Claire tells him they were attacked on the street by four briggands. Murtagh tells him he tried to fight them off. Jamie is very concerned about Claire and their baby, but she tells them they're OK. But Mary was assaulted and raped. Alex Randall overhears this and is in shock. He rushes to Mary who has passed out from the shock. Claire assures him that she'll be alright. Jamie asks Murtagh if he recognized them, but Murtagh tells him they wore masks. He and Murtagh start to go look for them, but Claire stops them and tells them now is not the time. Tonight is too important. What they are going to do is look after this poor girl. She tells the servants to take her up to the guest room where she'll be safe, then orders Fergus to go get her medical box. She tells Suzette to help her get dressed for the party. Jamie thinks she's daft, but she orders him to help get her inside, and take the back staircase so they won't be seen. Mary is still unconsious in the guest room, with Alex by her side. Claire asks him to stay with her and tells him she needs some quiet and rest. He tells Claire that he won't leave her side. If she wakes up she can have some water or tea. And poppy syrup, but not too much as it can cause visions and she's already given her a dose. Claire is back in their room getting ready with Suzette's help. Jamie pops in and tells them that dinner has not been served and they can still cancel and send everyone home. But Claire insists that there's too much at stake. They need to alert the authorities about Mary, but Jamie says they can't. Mary's uncle and fiance are at the party. If Mary's been violated, her reputation will be ruined. Claire says it is hardly her fault she was raped, and Jamie says he knows it's not right, but if they let it be known that she's a maiden no more, no man will ever take her and she'll be a spinster until the end of her days. Claire says that is rediculous, she needs a doctor, and Jamie says she has one, her. Jamie says he'd lay odds that St. Germain is behind this. He wants to go out there right now and cut his head off. Claire is shocked that St. Germain is there. Jamie tells her that the Duke invited him. Claire says, "Christ, noone is getting their head cut off tonight. You should go." Jamie kisses her and says he'll let the guests know she is there. Claire takes several deep breaths to calm down. Claire enters the parlor regally and joins Jamie who introduces his wife to the group. She curtsies and most of the men bow, except notably St. Germain. She gery graciously greets them and apologizes for her delay, then invites them into the dining room where dinner is served. Claire walks into dinner with Louise and asks her how things are going. Lousie confides that she convinced her husband that she got pregnant on a drunken night. The baby is his and he was mad with joy. Upstairs, Mary is starting to stir, and Alex tells her he's there and she's safe now. He touches her face and tells her he loves her and will take good care of her. Claire is at one end of the table with the Comte St. Germain on her right and his wife on her left. Next to her is Silas Hawkins, and next to St. Germain is the Vicomte Marigny. An unknown woman is sitting to the right of Marigne, and an unkown man is to the left of Hawkins, then the Duke of Sandringham. Charles Stuart, looking very unhappy, is sitting across from the Duke, and Louise is to the Duke's left, and Jules is sitting on her left. Two more unknown men are sitting to the right of the Prince, and then an unknown woman. Another unknown man is sitting across from her. Jamie is at the opposite end of the table from Claire. There are 15 people seated, 10 of whom are identified. Jamie says to the crowd at the table, "We're fortunate to have his Royal Highness with us from Italy." The Duke said he'd had an occasion to visit it last year but was disappointed was his trip to the Vatican. Jamie said his grace had told him he'd wished to meet Pope Benedict. "Yes, but he was too busy to receive me. What do popes do anyway? Does anyone know?" Charles states, "I imagine as leader of the Catholic Church, it keeps him rather occupied." The Duke asks Charles if he's met him, and Charles replies that he has, and that he's been exceedingly generous to his family, as have the past four Popes. The Duke wants to know if the Pope is as witty as they say. Claire says that the Duke has been known to tell a joke or two, and asks if he'd favor them. "What did the dwarf say when asked for five schillings? Apologies, I'm a trivle short." Everyone laughs except the Comte St. Germain and his wife who give each other looks... Claire, still reeling from the attack, can't take her eyes off St. Germain and wondering if he orchistrated such violence and then sat calmly across the table from her two hours later sipping his soup. Jamie prompts Charles to enlighten the group on his plans, on God's plans. He starts his standard speal of it being God's plan that he, as his emissary, unite the clans and restore a Catholic to the throne. Louise chimes in and asks, "Must we talk politics? It's so dreary. What about the opera?" Charles leans across the table and asks the Duke of Sandringham if he's married.He replies, "It's a wonderment, but I've not yet found a woman who could put up with me. Ha ha ha ha..." Charles says that they are such fickle creatures indeed. The Duke states that Jamie found himself a worthy one. "I must say that the combination of their respective beauty will result in a child of unfathomable pulchritude (means physical beauty)." Jamie thanks him in French, "Merci". Then Claire gives him a nod and he says, "I understand that congratulations are in order for the Madame and Marqui as well" (indicating Louise and her husband Jules). They both look surprised, then Lousie confirms that they are looking forward to the arrival of a little one. Jamie apologizes, and then Jules says they hadn't formally announced it yet, but smiling and holding his wife's hand, he says, "An heir, it is the most incredible news, is it not?" Charles looks a little shocked, then toasts them, wishing Louise and her husband all the happiness in the world. Then he blurts out, "The world is not always a happy place. It's unpredictible really. One day you're happy, and then the next..." He says something else, maybe Italian, and Jules says he's a little in the dark as to his meaning. Charles tells him that he believes he's a man in the dark indeed. Mary wakes up in a panic. Alex tries to calm her but she yells at him to get away from her. He goes to get medicine and she runs out of the room knocking some glass over. The Comtessa St. Germain comments on the beautiful stone Claire is wearing around her neck (the one Master Raymond gave her). Claire says it's just a bauble. St. Germain says in French, "Lady Broch Tuarach is being far too modest. That is actually a very particular stone. It is said to be magic...if one...believes in such things. Indeed, it changes colour...when poison is near. If the Lady is so worried...about the cooking in her own home, perhaps we should all have a stone?" Claire gives him a look and says in French, "Perhaps you should." Then Mary barges into the room with Alex chasing her. She turns and fights him. She falls down yelling, and he is on top of her. Jamie and the dinner guests come to see what's happening, and someone says, "He's raping her!" Jamie pulls Alex up and moves him away, then gets Mary onto a couch, then all hell breaks out with people punching and fighting. Murtagh comes into the room brandishing a blade, but Jamie tells him not now and disarms him. The Comte St. Germain is on the sidelines with Prince Charles who yells out, "There is no reason to be uncivilized." St. Germain says in English, "Yes, and Your Highness should not be subjected to such intemperence. Let us depart." Prince Charles is reluctant to leave his friend James with such ruffians. But St. Germain tells him not to trouble himself. He'll take care of it. Then he tells a servant, "Summon the gens d'armes." (the men-at-arms or police) They all depart. Fergus is delighted to have a table full of delicous food all to himself while the dinner guests are otherwise entertained. Take the Episode Quiz Recap by Mary Girven
