Mattie feared that Cora's arrest will bring shame on the family and began to doubt Cora's innocence. Ella Battle told husband Wyn that she'll allow Betty-Jean and Jack to see each other again, but a furious Wyn informed Ella that Jack's drunken aunt was arrested under suspicion of murder. Despite protests from Ella and Betty-Jean, Wyn warned Betty-Jean against ever seeing Jack again. Betty-Jean chose her parents when Jack forced her to decide between them. Sara tried to take Cora a vanity kit, but the matron wouldn't let Cora have it, because it contained a glass mirror.
