Jasna se sooča z Živinimi dejanji in lažmi. Črt se pripravlja na očetovstvo. Helena v zvezi z žago naredi odločno potezo. Praznovanje božiča razdeli Trigrad.
Jasna se sooča z Živino lažjo. Spominja se dogodka iz otroštva, ko je nekdo poskušal utopiti Črta in dobi potrditev, da Črtu še vedno nekdo streže po življenju. Žagarji medtem začnejo na črno sekati gozd, a Helena poseže v dogajanje z nepričakovanim dejanjem. Avstrijci pritiskajo na Blaža, ki se od dogajanja vedno bolj umika v prijateljstvo z župnikom. Praznovanje svete noči dokončno razdeli Trigrad, sproži plaz nasilja in konfliktov, hkrati pa poveže Črta s tremi ženskami različnih generacij v nepričakovano družino.
Jasna is confronted with Ziva's actions and lies. Crt is preparing for fatherhood. Helena makes a decisive move regarding the saw. The celebration of Christmas divides Trigrad. Jasna is confronted with Ziva's lighter. He remembers a childhood event when someone tried to drown Crt and gets confirmation that Crt is still being served by someone for life. The sawmills, meanwhile, begin to illegally cut down the forest, but Helena intervenes with an unexpected act. The Austrians are putting pressure on Blaz, who is increasingly withdrawing from his friendship with the pastor. The celebration of the Holy Night finally divides Trigrad, triggers an avalanche of violence and conflict, and at the same time connects Crt with three women of different generations into an unexpected family.
