Ep. 10: Alice sonha com a mãe enquanto navega pela insônia de Duke e tensões familiares.

10

Alice dreams about her mother, Sharon, maid to Duke's mother when Duke was young. Viola notices their mother is angry they missed Christmas dinner. Zain sends Cuff shopping alone after Viola criticised him for his habit of doting on her. Cuff manages the shopping but almost injures a young pickpocket, forcing Zain to revert to his habit of saving her. Duke has trouble sleeping so Alice decides to get in bed with him, except her sleeping nude makes his sleeplessness worse. She asks about his mother and Duke claims he would leave the family if she parted him from Alice. Alice is troubled Duke may be forced to choose between her or his family one day. Rob remembers being ordered to raise Duke away from the family, becoming a surrogate father, but blamed himself for Duke's isolation and depression, until he brought in Alice, someone close to Duke's age who has become precious to him. Duke asks Alice to sing while he plays The Owl and the Pussy-Cat on the piano, though they both end up embarrassed. Alice returns to her room despondent that, despite Duke's confidence, they will likely be parted when his curse is broken. (Source: Wikipedia)
