Sir Norman confronts two children brought home by his father, Mr. Bacon, who says he will help their sick mother. Norman dismisses them, ordering them sent away in the morning and forbidding them from touching anything. Later, the children discover a flute identical to their mother's. As the younger girl plays her mother's song, Norman, who was mourning a woman named Nancy, hears the music and is shaken, believing it to be a sign that Nancy has finally forgiven him.
