In a crowded market, a fire breaks out in the backyard of a shop owned by an enemy nation's princess. Shop workers, including Jill, scramble to grab valuable ingredients and the latest development log before flames consume them. Neighbors shout for help as the blaze threatens Main Street. The lord orders soldiers to gather and put out the fire. The officers warn that any Consorts must be taken alive to prevent destruction of evidence of treason. The episode ends with the town mobilized, the fire still spreading, and the development log's survival in doubt.
