Virgie Carrington has run Carrington House to educate ladies to be prim young ladies - to be the perfect wives & contributors to a stable society... she is in her sixtys now, and ....

Quentin and Allison are two of the young ladies who attended her school, and they did n't quite fit the bill of Virgie's standards...

Sarah & Tinkie are hired by Allison's brother (a bit of a deviant, who sends Sarah kinky gifts with invitations to play) to prove Allison's innocence. As they investigate they find half a dozen women who died under mysterious circumstances (most considered accidents) after receiving a note warning them to behave...

Tinkie & Oscar are at odds as Oscar wants her to have a biopsy for her breast lump, and Tinkie believes that her faith will keep her healthy... she finally agrees to a biopsy at the end - after surviving Virgie's drugging and kidnapping her... Sarah pines for Coleman, who returns - and finally confesses his love for her and tells Connie (who is not in fact pregnant) that he wants a divorce... and surprise, suprise... Sarah is pulling back a bit... hmmmmm

Jitty is going through a period of the rich courts of France prior to the revolution... hmmmmm

Sarah goes to save Tinkie, and gets captured... Coleman & Oscar come to save them, and Coleman gets shot... Sweetie Pie is the hero of the hour, saving them all...
