After a wedding, a royal visitor arrives to congratulate the couple but then demands to see his daughter and asks why the Wight's Bane failed. A lord presents a young woman and declares her Chancellor Yale's second daughter, Janice Yale. The chancellor is stunned—he insists his eldest, Wendy, was the body sent in the coffin yesterday and questions whether there has been a mistake. The lord tells him to "see for yourself," forcing Yale to confront the unexpected presence of Janice and leaving the court facing an unresolved identity crisis.
