With time running short and the artisans needing to replenish their supply of silver sugar, Anne comes up with the idea to ask Kat to help out. Anne goes to Kat's workshop to ask for assistance, but he refuses opting to prioritize his customers instead. However, Anne remembers that Kat lost a bet with Hugh when Anne refused Hugh's help to get Challe back from Bridget in which Hugh gets to ask one favor out of Kat. Anne returns to Holly Leaf and challenges Hugh to a confection-making contest for the right to make that request, and Hugh accepts with the winner being the one making the confection that Noah eats. In looking for ideas as to what to make that Noah would approve, Anne decides on something that reminds Noah of Herbert. As she stares at a portrait of Herbert with his head ripped off, Gladus approaches Anne telling her that Challe refuses to open up to him and almost says why he and Challe are close to each other. After Gladus he leaves with Bridget, Challe comes in telling Anne about something she cannot be seen, and that gives Anne the idea to look behind Herbert's portrait. Anne sees the only House Chamber crest remaining in the castle there, and she decides to make a confection of it.
