Miep is asked to hide the Franks and must rise to the occasion. No longer just a secretary, her first task is to get a nervous Margot into the secret hiding place in plain view of the Nazis.
Everything seems under control until Miep's Jewish dentist, Fritz Pfeffer, asks if she knows of a place where he can hide. Though she tries to say no, she's overcome by the need to help just one more person.
Laws against Jews are intensifying, landing two small children in Miep and Jan's care, strengthening Jan's ties to the resistance and bringing up Miep's issues with her past abandonment.
Miep tries to reconcile her old life with her new one but is forced to choose between her morals and her lifelong best friend while trying to bring some form of holiday cheer to the lives of those in the annex.
Jan refuses to abandon a dangerous mission, and Miep fears for his life.
As Nazi crackdowns increase, Miep must hide an innocent student from her Nazi neighbor.
Miep's worst fear comes true when the Nazis raid the annex. Miep is determined to save the Franks and others at any cost, even if it means confronting the enemy head-on.
With the war ending, Miep and Jan try to find the Franks and other Jewish residents of the annex.
