Rudy has been watching me at the company, and tonight a small accident at a cousin’s recognition party becomes a flashpoint. A guest spills a drink and onlookers immediately accuse the "imposter" of trying to embarrass the real Jepsen daughter. Rumors link the incident to Rudy—people say she’s jealous after losing the heiress title and warn the board and Uncle might expel her. Voices rise; one guest snaps, "Don't say that about Rudy!" and Cherry pleads, "please trust Rudy this once." The episode ends with Cherry forced to choose whether to defend Rudy while accusations threaten her status.
