Staff are wrongly blamed but Mr. Collins, the chief porter, discovers that it is Stephen and covers for him. Celia is recognized by a resident guest, Esme Harkness, a retired courtesan, elderly but still attractive and not averse to a little business on the side. She befriends Monica, a young chamber-maid with aspirations and, respecting the girl's ambitions, teaches her etiquette whilst determining that Monica should not have to become a prostitute. John Bannerman's mother, discovering the source of Esme's money, demands that she leave the Grand but Esme turns the tables on her by revealing that the late Mr. Bannerman was a good client of hers. Marcus, feeling that it is sexist to punish prostitutes but not their male clients, demands that Esme stay and Sarah supports him, to her husband's annoyance. Written by don @ minifie-1 See less
