My Sister Wears Stars - Episode 2

At a formal gathering Ayla is insulted as a beggar and dragged away by guards after Mrs. Eaton orders her removed, sparking the episode's conflict.

Back at the house servants and a relative demand the “beggar” leave, but Zaiden interrupts, "she's my sister." His defense stops the immediate expulsion, yet Mrs. Eaton's rejection stands, leaving Ayla's acceptance and safety unresolved.
