Gwyneth is assigned the arrogant and disapproving Gideon de Villiers to watch her.

Gwen's blood is fed to the chronograph, the time travel machine that contains secrets of its own, so that she can use it to travel through time smoothly and avoid uncontrolled jumps.

Gwen travels through time once more and is finally acknowledged as the final time traveler. The Lodge is skeptical of the circumstances, but decide to watch Gwen to confirm that she has in fact inherited the time travel gene. After her third jump, Gwen's best friend Lesley convinces her to tell her mother, who had apparently counterfeited Gwen's birth documents to protect her from the Guardians. Gwen experiences two more uncontrolled jumps through time, during the third of which she witnesses herself, or a double of hers, kissing a boy she has never met at a ball in the 1700s. Charlotte had been prepared for that duty her whole life, and resents Gwyneth for messing up her life plans. At first, Gwen is doubtful about her jump in time, since her cousin Charlotte Montrose has always been destined to have inherited the time travel gene that is passed down through the women in their family. Not long after, she unintentionally jumps through time while leaving the house.
