Gaspard Discloses the Truth to Maya

After blackmailing Clotilde by threatening to leave with Cléo unless she called the police, Joachim decided to have the young girl stay with them instead of leaving her in a country house without heating. In the morning, Joachim allows Cléo to go outside for some fresh air, taking precautions so she goes unnoticed. Clotilde criticizes her husband for blindly trusting her. But Joachim assures that Cléo’s condition is stable. When she returns, Clotilde asks her not to leave the apartment again.

Meanwhile, Léonard and Quentin wake up in their room, delighted to be together even though they have chosen to hide their relationship from others, especially Maya. She enters the room just as the two boys were about to kiss. She notices nothing and simply waits for her best friend to be ready to accompany her to class.

In the park, Jim and Jasmine find numerous scattered clothes. These belong to Gaspard. Someone broke into his room and stole them. While Gaspard is furious, Jim and Jasmine think it’s merely karma coming back around.

Gaspard complains to Teyssier, who personally checks the situation in his room. He promises to notify the police. However, Gaspard demands justice. Besides his clothes, his red notebook where he writes all his recipes was also stolen. Teyssier retorts that he should only blame himself for having harassed his peers since the start of the year.

Meanwhile, Joachim catches Cléo packing her things. She has realized that her presence bothers Clotilde. Joachim, however, convinces the young girl to stay by offering his help in finding her a job.

In the park, Gaspard continues to retrieve his belongings hanging from the trees. Maya, Léonard, and Quentin can’t help but mock him. When Maya provokes him, Gaspard retaliates by revealing that the two boys are sleeping together. Hurt, the young girl leaves.

At the amphitheater, Clotilde arranges to meet Joachim to discuss what happened to Gaspard, suspecting Cléo was responsible. However, Joachim defends her, sure she had nothing to do with it. Clotilde decides to trust her husband.

That evening, Joachim takes Cléo for a job interview. Clotilde gives them some advice before heading to bed. Everyone is unaware that Rose is outside, watching them through the window…

Stanislas Adapts to Shared Living

At Angèle’s, it’s breakfast time. She decides to make pancakes, much to the delight of Stanislas. Alice joins them and offers tips on perfecting the batter. Eventually, she takes over to show him how to do it. Impressed, Angèle asks her to give them private baking lessons. Alice gladly agrees.

At the Institute, Stanislas meets Hortense and confesses that his weekend living with roommates went incredibly well. It feels good to be surrounded by friends after his breakup with Laetitia. Hortense is happy for him.

As planned, Stanislas and Angèle meet at the farm for a private lesson with Alice. Gaëtan also joins them. Stanislas struggles to get along with him due to their contrasting personalities.

Antoine Struggles Without Laetitia

At the Workshop, Rose and Enzo inform the young chefs of the Master class that they will be highlighting Italian cuisine in the coming months. They then turn to Antoine, responsible for arranging the delivery of Italian products to the Institute. But he admits that he completely forgot, thinking it was up to his colleagues to handle it. He asks the students to adapt.

Later, Rose visits Antoine in his office to clarify things. She thinks he’s defensive because she had not told him that he might be Carla’s father. Antoine states that he has already forgiven her, explaining that he’s overloaded with work since Laetitia’s departure. Rose helps him find a list of potential replacements that Laetitia had left him to hire someone.

Meanwhile, Enzo brainstorms with Lionel, Tom, and Emi for a solution. They decide on a unique menu that each chef can easily make their own, specifically seafood linguine. Upon learning that Antoine has posted a job ad to replace Laetitia, Lionel worries: the housing he shares with his sister is tied to the job, meaning they won’t be able to stay if Laetitia’s position is filled by someone else.

After class, Lionel discusses this with Zoé, agreeing to sabotage the interviews happening the next morning by tarnishing Antoine’s reputation. When Solal joins them, the Lanneaus hide their scheme.
