At an appraisal banquet, a fight erupts: six-year-old Dorian is accused by his older siblings—Vivienne, Imogen and twelve-year-old Aldric—of striking them. The siblings show swollen faces and demand an apology while Mr. and Mrs. Valmont scold Dorian. Dorian insists he only defended himself and urges his father to check surveillance footage before judging. The mother backs Aldric, relatives call Dorian violent, and an uncle threatens the adopted son with severe punishment. As Mr. Valmont goes to review the footage, someone notices an unexpected "aura of a king" around Dorian, leaving his fate unresolved.
