Fortune's Sweetest Match - Episode 8

Tessa storms into the troupe, insisting she can perform the newly uncovered Spirit of the Peacock despite never having studied it. Her mother and troupe elders condemn the claim as sacrilege, citing Madam Burton's strict standards, neighborhood gossip, and Tessa's pregnancy as reasons to bar her. Tessa pleads for one chance, arguing modest movement helped her teacher, but is accused of overstepping and even of using a sham to win Shaun. As tensions peak and Mom demands she leave, someone calls out, "Madam Burton, let her give it a shot," leaving the troupe's verdict - and Tessa's future - undecided.
