Servants report the Consort is exhausted while My Lord hands out pearls and wedding gifts; attendants crowd and count donations. Jill, a livestreamer with one million fans, flips between bravado and caution—saying she was hurt before and insists she'll avoid him—yet tries to steer his favor. When he presses, she answers bluntly, "We're married. We should be honest with each other." She then admits she's a foil for her sister and wants distance to prove her innocence. The episode ends with My Lord asking where to claim last month's silvers, leaving her cornered.
