As accusations of theft and imposture fly, an uncle demands proof of the pendant's true owner. Wendy reveals that the pendant is infused with the blood of the Stowe family and challenges the claimants to prove their identity by making the pendant glow with their blood. Susie hesitates, unable to endure the test, while Wendy prepares to verify her identity, raising the stakes and threatening punishment if the fake is exposed.
