- Marian grows increasingly anxious and paranoid.
- She sneaks out when the mail is set to arrive in order to get her expected letter from Mr. Kyrle before anyone else does.
- Mr. Kyrle's letter is very reassuring and says Laura should refuse to sign anything. He also says Laura can demand that he look over the document, as her lawyer.
- Marian chills with Count Fosco for a while, who is playing with his pet mice.
- Creepy.
- Later a breathless Laura rushes in and tells Marian that she's just met Anne Catherick.
- Anne is her good old crazy self and gives all sorts of cryptic warnings about Sir Percival.
- Marian is frustrated that Laura isn't the best detective, and doesn't have many useful details to share.
- Anne looked awful, and Laura learned that she is dying.
- Anne also tells Laura that Sir Percival has a Secret with a capital S.
- (If it's that he's a big old jerkface, we already knew.)
- Marian then fills Laura in on Mr. Kyrle's letter and says they have to stay firm, since Sir Percival is obviously trying to get his hands on Laura's money.
- Sir Percival's method of getting cash seems overly elaborate. (Just saying.)
- Later that evening Count Fosco kinda-sorta hits on Marian. Yipes!
