Christian visits Amira in an attempt at atonement, only to discover that she has left Mark. August gradually starts returning to his old self, but he isn't yet emotionally able to resume their attempts at establishing the family that he and Emilie have previously so fervently wanted. And his formerly unconditional faith in God is still wavering. Johannes is still getting the cold shoulder from Elisabeth, and while he struggles to keep himself, as well as his church and staff on the right track, she gradually withdraws more and more from him - and closer and closer to Liv, the young Norwegian woman.
