Leaving Only to Be Found Again - Episode 8

At a village gathering Noelle sobs after a childhood friend, Jensen, says he hates her. Their families suggest arranging an engagement, but Jensen shocks everyone by declaring he doesn't want Noelle; he wants Carine, a 'village girl.' Adults tell them to decide when older while classmates taunt Carine. Asked who he'll protect, Jensen names his grandmother and Carine and is mocked as weak. Prompted by his tutor to exercise so he can defend others, Jensen vows, "I'll prove it to you now!" The episode ends on his unresolved promise to change himself and others' minds.
