When Clara expresses her desire to remain in her home, Traverse stands up against Colonel Le Noir's contempt, revealing the underlying animosity. As the tensions rise and the stakes become evident, Clara's predicament as a ward under Colonel Le Noir sets the stage for the unfolding drama that Capitola will soon become embroiled in.
