China, 7th century. On their way to a provincial centre Judge Dee and his three wives spend the night at a taoist monastery.

After a number of mysterious events and more cases of murder, Dee tracks down the true villain.

At 17:20, a Chinese woman in a restaurant entertains the customers, starting with a very large wooden diabolo. This is seen on and off for about 3 minutes.

At 20:50, she changes to manipulating three spinning plates.
