The men of Camelot discover the territory beyond the castle is filled with danger and disorder. Arthur hears Guinevere has ridden out alone to see her father and goes after her to protect her on the journey.
This episode interweaves three stories: Guinevere's journey to her parent's home where her father is dying, accompanied by King Arthur, Kay's journey (at the bequest of Merlin) to his deceased father's home to retrieve his library, and a woman who comes to Morgan for justice claiming that the nun who helped raise Morgan in a convent and now lives with her has caused the death of her daughter as result of deliberately setting fire to the convent.
