 Elizabeth has made new friends in Bloomsbury -- outré artists, intellectuals and a rather handsome poet named Lawrence Kirbridge. Elizabeth finds all of this very heady, but she is very drawn to Lawrence. Lady Marjorie and Richard leave London for the weekend and Elizabeth invites this motley group to Eaton Place. Lawrence reads his poetry in the morning room and tea is served. Rose and Hudson are disgusted and shocked by their slovenly and ill-mannered ways and Edward comments on their lack of hygiene. When her parents return and find the doyenne of the group dancing on a table, they are speechless. Lady Marjorie asks them to leave immediately. Elizabeth is mortified and harsh words are exchanged. Richard urges his daughter to consider her behavior and their feelings and those of the servants, as well. On her 21st birthday, she visits her friends in Bloomsbury and sees Lawrence. She asks to stay with them, but she is turned away. The truth is her this cadre of non-conformists view Eliazbeth with disdain -- she s a rich girl who can not be taken seriously. There s little for Elizabeth to celebrate on her special day -- she s been rejected by her Bohemian chums and has alienated herself utterly from a bewildered Richard and a VERY perturbed and distressed Lady Marjorie.
