However, the Mother Superior in particular is horrified by how one of her subordinates, Perpetua, was selling some of the girls - the fair-haired 'virtuous' ones - to HumanTraffickers to help fund the laundry, retorting to Perpetua's claim that the girls are all damned due to their birth to 'fallen women' by saying that it is ''her'' soul that is lost.

While out for a picnic, Dot and Hugh find the body of a young woman in the river. When the victim is discovered to have resided at the Magdalene laundry, Phrynie and Jack investigate, where Phrynie earns the ire of the laundry's officials for her disgust at the conditions the girls have to work in.
Phrynie's irreverent attitude, coupled with an attempt to sneak into laundry for further information (where she makes contact with Mary, a heavily pregnant girl), earns the ire of George Sanderson, newly promoted to Chief Commissioner, who takes Jack off the case for being unable to rein Phrynie in, and threatens to dismiss Jack if he and Phrynie continue to investigate the case.
