Episode: Part Three. Kate hides her disappointment as Stephen introduces her to his fiancée, Christina Lloyd-Price, at a political function in the hotel. Left in her room by Marcus as ever, Ruth miscarries and realises that she will probably never be able to bear the children Marcus wants. She wears padding, pays the midwife to keep visiting her as if all was still normal and makes arrangements to buy a baby from a poor woman in time for her own child's 'birth'.
