The next morning, the Governess tells her sister that she is in a bad mood. She tells her that her father has arrived and that the doctor has put forward new plans for treating her sister. The Governess then asks why she hasn't told her why her grandmother has left, and why she's upset about the tonics. She says that she told her grandmother that she has a bad temper, and that scolding her could ruin her reputation. She then asks if she can go shopping with her sister the next day, and she says that her sister has already agreed to do so.
