Louis XIV is the king of France, still resentful of an insult from the Fronde ten years earlier. On learning that Comte de Guiche and his companions have met Baron de Fargues, he recalls Fargues's near seizure of the carriage carrying him and his mother, Anne d'Autriche. He uses the judicial system and fabricated evidence to pursue Fargues's death, while Louise de La Vallière intervenes for the baron.
Charpentier has made an offer for Henri's land, but Henri has not signed anything. The offer is part of the dispute over the land's future, which Alain raises during a family meal and which contributes to Henri's conflict with his relatives.
