Father Nicolas Taylor (a Just call me Nick') is a complete contrast to the dour Father O'Donnell. Naive and impressionable, he readily accedes to Nadina's request for a recommendation to attend the prestigious Convent School of the Holy Name. Fergus accosts Nick on his first Sunday to tell him of the cover-up but the new priest is unmoved, convinced of the absurdity of the allegations. Seeking advice from the wily Monsignor O'Shea as to how to deal with the unstable Irishman for a time he is reassured. However, when fellow priest and friend, Guy Holdcraft hints that there may be some truth in the assertions Nick is deeply troubled. Disturbing dreams interrupt his sleep and he begins to doubt the Monsignor's explanation of his predecessor's hurried visit to a dying mother in Ireland. Rabid anti-cleric Superintendent Robertson is eager to investigate the Irishman's claims and sends devout Catholic Chief Inspector Charles Harris to investigate. Despite the ruthless questioning of his colleague, sergeant Penhaligon. Nadina continues to deny anything at all improper took place. Fergus decides to take matters into his own hands and travels to O'Donnell's new parish to kill him. However, the gun jams, O'Donnell kicks and beats him and he is left unconscious in the churchyard. Struggling home and close to death he is nursed back to health by the local GP with Ryan at his side. News of the death of seventeen year old Foureyes further illustrates Ryan's compassion when he gives the homily at the funeral. Deeply angered by the injustice Fergus accidentally lets slip to his son that Nadina was indeed abused by O'Donnell. Yet Ryan is unwilling to believe that Nadina was the unwilling victim. Enraged, he takes up with the provocative June Greengage. Bored with June and missing Nadina, Ryan asks her to forgive him and the couple are engaged. Temporarily, both now go their separate ways. Nadina to Oxford University and Ryan, a soldier in Germany with the Occupying British army for two years.
