During engagement preparations a chandelier frightens Marcus; he clutches his chest and is urged to go to the hospital. Staff stash a valuable Cold Marrow Jade in the storeroom and note the fiancé’s gifts were hard-won, not accidental. Riverton assumes Miss Grant will name Marcus her fiancé at tomorrow’s party and guests praise his expected inheritance. Marcus rebuffs that by saying, "My heart belongs to Vivian." Someone promises to walk away with him if anyone stops the ceremony. Howard and granddaughter Yvonne Grant arrive, raising the stakes for the public naming.
