A bandit snatches a jewel necklace from stately female train passenger and makes a break for freedom pursued by guards. Cornered he flings the jewel from the train and while the guards go after the jewel, the bandit makes off with the woman, his accomplice who is left unguarded.
It occurs to me that our Duchess still needs a Duke whom she has to evade so elaborately- an antagonist.
Yeah, had the same concern, but i thought the lifestyle she has - boring, repetitive and preordained - might be the antagonist. Also, i think revealing that they are still in possession of the jewel is a bit more satisfying.
