A Child's Song Unlocks a Father's Shame

On Christmas Day, little Milly pleads with her silent mother to open her eyes. Arthur learns that Clara died after giving birth to his baby at St Hilda's. Obsessed with Arthur, Agnes conceals Milly while claiming her own daughter, Nora, as his heir. Milly later follows his carriage and enters his life as an orphan. When she sings a private silver deer lullaby before Clara's portrait, Arthur begins to suspect the truth.
