In this episode, we dive into the chaos after Governor Berkeley leaves for England. With his death, Virginia's plans fall apart. Governor Jeffreys steps in, clashes with the Assembly, then dies too! His widow gets thrown in debtors' prison by a vengeful Assembly. Henry Chicheley briefly takes charge, but trouble looms as a reluctant Lord Culpeper is on his way to take over.
