During a violent household confrontation, a woman openly insults Caleb—calling him weak, infertile and claiming "we're married, so he's mine"—after a scuffle prompts calls for the police. Caleb begs his grandfather Victor for rescue, warning he'll die if forced to stay. The family, fearing for their sole heir, demands he divorce her. Grandpa agrees and elders declare they need someone bold to keep Caleb in line, dismissing dissent. The episode closes with Giselle being asked to go to her room—"the bridal chamber"—leaving the divorce plan and Caleb's fate unresolved.
