  Not   everyone   in   the   household   is   happy   about   Mary,   but   the   spirit   of   Lily   is   growing   more   fond   of   her   every   day.   Lily,   after   witnessing   the   lengths   Mary   is   willing   to   go   to   in   order   to   help   her   son,   Colin,   caress’   Mary’s   face   lovingly,   her   touch   as   soft  as  a  feather.           Mother   and   son   –   Lily   and   Colin   –     Lily’s   spirit   sings   to   Colin’s   soul   in   a   plead   to   let   Mary  Lennox  help  him  to  get   well.             “What   do   we   do   about   Mary?”     Uncle   Archibald   has   left   for   Paris   -­‐   Neville   and   his   sidekick,   Mrs.   Medlock  have  devised  a  plan  to  send  Mary  away   to   boarding   school,   getting   her   influence   away   from  Colin.   This   way   they   can   continue   with   their   plan   to   keep   Archibald   away   from   the   mansion   forever  thus  being  able   to   keep  it   for  themselves.     They   need   to   keep   Colin   sickly   for   this   plan   to   work,   as   Archibald   just   can’t   bear   to   be   around   his  young  son  and  not  be  able  to  do  anything  for   him.     What   they   didn’t   count   on   was   Mary’s   hysterics   and   refusal   to   go   away,   ruining   their     plans.
