Once Jones has departed from Lady Bellaston's house, the woman exclaims to Sophia how good-looking he is. Sophia says that she did not take much notice of him and that she found him rather ungentlemanly. Lady Bellaston agrees, and decides aloud that she will not admit him to visit. Lady Bellaston makes a snide comment about Tom's clothing. Sophia upbraids her for her cruelty and lets slip that the man is Tom Jones. She attempts to cover up her mistake. Lady Bellaston enjoys tormenting Sophia. Sophia cannot sleep from her guilt at lying.
