Pentecost

Overview

Daria decides to marry off the serfs. Aksinya is given to the hunchback Grishka, while to her favorite, the mute coachman Ivan, she chooses the tongue-deprived Fyokla to be his bride. The Hajduks refuse to listen and attack. The steward tries to protect the villagers, but they are outnumbered. Sergei is once again summoned by Catherine and appointed tutor to his own son.
