Complete story — includes the ending
King Henry continues to behave erratically, much to everyone's concern. A servant named Penelope ( Kathryn Prescott ) wins "the Queen of the Bean" contest and becomes queen for a day. She is able to sexually satisfy Henry and becomes his new mistress, deliberately undermining Queen Catherine. Bash asks Prince Francis for help hunting "the Darkness", though they are unable to find any trace of it. The paternal half-brothers reconcile when Bash saves Prince Francis's life, and they learn that it was King Henry himself who ordered the guards to kill Bash, claiming that a "sacrifice had to be made", which concerns his grown sons. Lady Greer's new fiancé, Lord Julien (Giacomo Gianniotti), catches her kissing Leith and calls off the engagement. Castleroy intervenes when Leith is sent to prison, arranging that Leith be allowed to become a soldier. Castleroy proposes to Greer again, and she accepts. At Queen Mary and Lady Greer's urging, Lady Lola approaches Julien as a potential suitor. Lady Olivia and Nostradamus grow close and kiss. In order to ensure that Bash will no longer threaten Prince Francis's marriage, King Henry has Bash immediately wed to Lady Kenna.
