Because her fiancée died fighting on the Eastern Front she remarries again to a doctor. Several years later she sees a picture in a paper she realises it is her own lost daughter. However, her husband, fears that the child's illegitimacy will ruin his job prospects. In addition it turns out that Urusula's fiancée is not dead, but has been held as a Soviet prisoner of war.
