## Summary

Edward catches Kate but the two are freed by a small Morph and escape out to the hall where they meet John who also wore a Veiled Doll uniform. They run up to a tower but John is captured by Gerald forcing Kate and Emilico to jump off with soot wings. John frees himself to send a burst of soot to give a boost to reach the Children's Building and Edward has Aileen create a giant soot pigeon to catch up. At the Children's Building, Kate and Emilico meet with Patrick, Ricky, and Shaun, escaping inside when Edward catches up. Inside the building, Louise had called on the Star Bearers which forces Edward to face a punishment from the 3rd floor who are angered at his actions.

In the 3rd floor, Ryan and Dorothy suggest banishing Edward and demoting Aileen and Gerald. Despite this, Lord Grandfather instead lets them off with a stern warning. Edward vows to catch Kate to make way into the 3rd floor for the sake of Lord Grandfather.

In the morning, Kate and Emilico are introduced to the daily life in the mansion while John had managed to return by clinging onto the tail of Aileen's giant soot pigeon. As three new children are brought into the manor, the inhabitants of the Shadows House go into their daily lives.

## Plot

Edward has caught Kate and plans to hand her over to Lord Grandfather while another Veiled Doll approaches the door to the Lord Grandfather's Wing who is actually John in disguise. John accidentally gives away his identity to Aileen and Gerald, following a small Morph to Edward's room. Kate and Emilico are freed by the Morph and distract Edward, escaping in the process, meeting with John in the hallways. They run up to a tower but are cornered by Edward and John is restrained by Gerald. Kate and Emilico jump off using Kate's soot wings and John frees himself, summing a soot blast to push Kate and Emilico, giving them the boost to reach the Children's Building where they slide off the roof and land on Ricky and Shaun who rushed out with Patrick. Edward catches up to them with a massive soot pigeon from Aileen forcing the group to run inside. The Star Bearers confront Edward for trespassing in the Children's wing, called in by Louise which forces Edward to return as the members of the 3rd floor have also been alerted to this.

In the 3rd floor at night, Edward apologizes for his actions to the adults but is told he is banished from the House with Aileen and Gerald being demoted to the first floor. Despite this, Lord Grandfather simply reprimands them, lightening their punishments as he still shows interest in Edward's methods. In a hallway, Edward chooses not to stop his attempts to catch Kate and resolves to catch the malcontents and lower the standings of the 3rd floor.

In the morning, Emilico is happy to be able to leave her room with Kate and meets with her team. John had clung to the tail of Aileen's massive soot pigeon which allowed him to return safely. Maryrose starts an orientation to introduce the new debutantes to the life at the manor as Kate and Emilico wonder about the small Morph. During this, the small Morph squeezes into a gap of a metal door where it shrinks and turns into a bow around a Doll's index finger. As a soot pigeon flies, mirroring the first episode, a train arrives at the manor as three new children are given coffee, reciting the rules of a Living Doll. The Dolls sing a cleaning song as they go about their daily lives.
