Leonard Uncovers Shocking Secrets About His Past and the Castelmonts!

An unimaginable revelation unfolds in “Ici tout commence”… While the students and teachers of the Auguste Armand Institute are still in the mountains, Leonard (Thomas Vilan, who discussed this summer storyline with AlloCiné) receives unexpected news from Ferdinand (Simon Dartois)!

The Castelmont Family Secret Comes to Light

In the episode airing Thursday, July 31, 2025, of the TF1 drama (which airs Monday to Friday starting at 6:30 PM), Leonard is furious with Ferdinand for stealing his pendant. However, Ferdinand contends that he was merely reclaiming what was rightfully his, as the necklace is a unique piece and was once given to him as a gift by Etienne.

But when Leonard shows him a childhood photo of himself wearing the same pendant, Ferdinand is stunned. He seeks answers from his father. Then, in the episode of “Ici tout commence” airing Friday, August 1, 2025, we learn what the young man discovered…

Leonard and Ferdinand Are Brothers

Distraught, Ferdinand flees without telling anyone where he’s headed. His parents are worried because they fear he might reveal their biggest secret to the world… Meanwhile, Leonard goes hiking with his friends and Ismaël. Etienne informs Ismaël about Ferdinand’s disappearance over the phone.

The group comes across Ferdinand’s sweater in the forest. They decide to split up to possibly find him in the wilderness… Eventually, it’s Leonard and Ismaël who locate him. Ferdinand is on the edge of a cliff, looking very distressed. The boys manage to get him to sit down, and he suddenly tells Leonard that they are actually brothers! Leonard is dumbfounded…

Is this really the truth? What does the pendant signify? Stay tuned to “Ici tout commence”…
