In this episode, Elise attends Emperor Minchester's birthday celebration, which is mandatory for the nobility. During the event, various individuals pledge their loyalty to different political factions.
Juliane, who hails from a rival noble family, converses with Elise and recalls past conflicts, partly stemming from their feelings for the crown prince. Despite their history, Elise apologizes to Juliane for her behavior. Juliane is initially suspicious but gradually accepts Elise's apology.
The crown prince, Linden, makes an appearance at the event, drawing everyone's attention. Elise notices that Juliane is feeling unwell with a fever but insists on staying to remain close to the prince.
Linden and Elise dance together, which is surprising considering Linden's usual public demeanor. Elise reflects on her past efforts to become a skilled dancer who could match Linden. Meanwhile, Juliane's condition worsens, and Linden escorts her and Elise to a private salon to rest.
Elise meets Duchess Harbour, who appears to be suffering from Parkinson's disease. Elise grows concerned about the Duchess's condition and its potential implications.
Emperor Minchester delivers a speech hinting at the announcement of the crown prince's fiancée but postpones the official reveal until the lady, presumed to be Elise, comes of age. This stirs excitement among the attendees, as many assume Elise is the chosen bride.
Meanwhile, Emperor Minchester and Elise discuss the bet they made: Elise must prove that her work as a physician is more valuable than her potential role as empress. Minchester assures Elise that the bet still stands despite his earlier speech. However, he expresses his fatherly affection for Elise and his hope that she will support Linden.
