Is Lydia Quigley Margaret Wells' mother? As she says something about lying to her mother but I wasn't sure if she meant herself.

Thank god Sir George is dead. I'm pretty sure he acted so aggressive towards Lucy to make her know her place with him as he was never strict with Charlotte and let her run rings around him. I really want to know what's going to go on between Lord Fallon and Lucy because surely when Margaret refuses to hand her over, he won't just comply and leave it? Especially if he is one of the people procuring the innocent girls. Also, I think that the Mr Armitage guy will take Fanny's baby and look after it for her as he seems to genuinely like her.

I think that if Fallon is one of the 'Spartans', Lydia could kidnap Lucy and give her to Fallon as he does show a keen interest in Lucy and I'm not sure what's Margaret is going to do about Lucy's whole keeper situation as I'm pretty sure Sir George wants her as well.

To be honest I don't really know whether to believe Lord Fallon is one of the people who employ Justice Cunliffe. Yes he is creepy however there is nothing stopping Cunliffe writing any old name of a rich man down. Also they could just be making Fallon creepy to put people off the actual people doing it.

In episode 4, Lord Fallon compared Lucy to Persephone, a Greek goddess. In Greek mythology, Hades was in love with Persephone so he abducted her and made her live in the underworld with him. When her father ordered her release, Hades tricked Persephone into eating pomegranate seeds so she had to spend half the year with him in the underworld as she had tasted food from it. I think this is why he made her eat them as he does say 'Now you're mine' and also 'these seeds seal your fate'.
