Lady Caroline invites Jack to visit her and her family back in Gallowshield. He finds Sarah about to marry agent Stan Liddell, who is involved in anti-fascist politics as the Blackshirts whip up hysteria against Jews.
Jack steps in to help persecuted shopkeeper Manny Goldstein before attending a function given by Lady Caroline's husband, Edward Mostyn, who, although he hates fascists, needs to invite their leader Smith-Jameson to improve his chances of candidacy.
