Storyline

Philippe persuades Louis to visit the midwife who delivered their older brother. She tells them of his fate but Philippe is disbelieving, his suspicions leading him to question Versailles governor Bontemps. Meanwhile Leopold - his niece having escaped to the Netherlands with Fabien's lover Sophie - realizes that Louis intends to use Ottoman help to invade Austria, which incurs the wrath of Vatican representative Cardinal Leto. Leto is also implicit when the man in the iron mask's identity is ultimately revealed.
