Freed from the Seminary, Sara has adjusted to selling matches despite its cyclical nature. Donald stops the carriage to buy some matches as a gesture of charity. Peter arrives to bring Sara home, where Amelia is waiting to beg her to return to the Seminary despite the Headmistress's wrath. Sara is reunited with Lottie and Ermengarde, and opens a mysterious parcel which arrived in her absence: Thomas's care package. The Headmistress has her try on an outfit, which fits her well, and that night Sara writes a letter of gratitude.
