Now Tanya has taken over the holding, Sebastian bitterly blames Ludwig and contemplates with Lydia a career change. Sarcastic Ansgar seeks comfort in Lydia's adultery, nearly found out by maid Jessica. Philip enjoys collaborating flirtatiously with Nicola, who remains distant but offers him the orangery to install an office for him. Tristan feels guilty but convinces Ludwig it's best he stays on, allegedly as family spy. Meeting the castle estate's game-keeper inspires Ludwig to contemplate the forest's value. Jens Kramer lurks around.
