Episode 3 of 3

As Dilip and Kanchi are discovered together, Clodagh and Ruth clash over Mr Dean. All the nuns must confront their desires - with tragic consequences.

Sister Adela and Father Roberts prove unlikely allies for Ruth, forcing Clodagh to impose strict order or risk losing control of the convent, as well as herself. But events escalate as Dilip Rai and Kanchi are discovered together, with dramatic consequences. Om’s baby brother becomes seriously ill, and fingers are pointed in all directions. As Clodagh keeps vigil, Ruth flees the palace. In the resulting tragedy, the nuns have no choice but to return to Darjeeling.
