A Tale of Two Cities

Lucie Manette travels to pre-revolutionary France to find her father who she assumed was dead.

Lucie appears to vouch for French émigré Charles Darnay, who is charged with high treason.

Darnay is acquitted and Stryver informs Carton of his intentions regarding Lucie.

Carton reveals his true feelings to Lucie and Barsad makes an unwelcome reappearance.

In London, Manette suffers a relapse. Meanwhile, in Paris, the Bastille is stormed.

On receipt of Gabelle's letter, Darnay returns to Paris during the Reign of Terror.

Darnay is released from prison, thanks to Manette's influence.

The day of Darnay's execution arrives and, with Barsard's assistance, Carton visits him.
