Lexy asks her father Ned about her mother Libby, who died when she was born. Ned tries his best to describe his late wife to his youngest daughter. The next day, distracted by memories of Libby, Ned is kicked to the ground and knocked unconscious while trying to corral a wild horse with Isaac.

Ned and his son Sean come to the rescue when a woman crashes her carriage by the side of the road. Charlotte Bentley was apparently travelling from Richmond to Chicago when she lost control of her carriage. Ned gallantly takes her back to his farm and invites her to stay with his family for as long as she needs to recover. Meanwhile, Georgina is up to her old schemes.

With his mother back in a sanitarium, Jeremy withdraws from the family and takes comfort in riding his favorite horse, Chicory. Ned Logan can see that Jeremy is also still feeling guilty about his mother's thwarted abduction of Lexy, and decides that he will spend more time with the unsettled young man.
