Depending on how many years this saga covers, the child will probably grow up to become a solicitor who will be appointed to the bench and will one day sit in judgement of Ethel, who went back to the streets as a prostitute, having failed as a cook and maid, and unbeknownst to him that she is his mother, he will throw her in prison in the effort to rid the lower classes of the scourge of prostitution. He will have been raised by his grandfather to detest the “low life scum” that is becoming a growing menace to society. While they are dragging her away in shackles, she will then cry out to him over her shoulder that she is his birth mother and he grew up to become cold and heartless and will burn in hell. He will have a revelation, curse his grandfather on his grandfather’s death bed for lying to him about his mother (who he believed had died) and raising him as a judgmental sob, and he will turn from his life of privilege and become a crusader for the poor.

Hey, I love your storyline. Incredibly imaginative. You should be a writer on the series.
HAH! The screenwriters borrow liberally from Charles Dickens. I hope they are paying royalties to Dickens’ descendants.
“Having failed as a cook”...that would describe 99% of today’s American women.
