At a royal gathering a woman is publicly accused and pleads, "I swear I didn't!" Family members — led by Jazmin — heap shame, shout insults, and demand she be thrown out of the manor. The narrator remembers that in a previous life she was framed, locked in a room, denied a seat at the table, and fed leftovers. The crowd's humiliation escalates into orders for expulsion. The accusers taunt her and dare to see what tricks she has left, leaving her immediate banishment and response unresolved.
