Eve Faces Serious Charges
During a tense court session, Judge Laplace announces to Eve that she is being formally charged with the murder of Curtis. Despite the lack of direct evidence linking her to the drug dealer’s death, the circumstantial evidence seems to paint her as the prime suspect. As a precautionary measure, Judge Laplace opts to request her provisional detention, fearing that she might reach out to key figures involved in the case. This decision leads to Eve’s immediate incarceration, leaving Manu distraught, convinced that his partner is unjustly suffering due to his son’s past actions.
Meanwhile, at the police station, Commissioner Becker contacts Judge Laplace to express his concerns regarding the severity of the decision regarding Eve. Becker firmly believes she is innocent and simply caught in unfortunate circumstances. The judge, however, clarifies that the indictment is a strategic move aimed at eliciting a confession from Eve.
In a nearby office, Manu confronts Yann, blaming him for Eve’s predicament. Yann defends himself, stating he was merely performing his duties and reminds Manu that it was Eve who chose to engage with drug dealers. Tensions escalate between the two officers, prompting Thierry to step in to mediate, though his efforts prove fruitless.
Amidst the chaos, Commissioner Becker overhears their argument and promptly places Manu on indefinite leave.
Simultaneously, Boris attempts to reach Muriel but only gets her voicemail. Growing increasingly concerned after two days without contact, he urges her to get back to him.
Later in the day, Eliott reveals to Charles that Muriel has ended their relationship. With his mother facing possible imprisonment due to his actions, Eliott contemplates confessing everything to the police. Charles advises against this, encouraging him instead to focus on winning Muriel back.
By evening, Boris arrives at Muriel’s residence, where she confirms her breakup with Eliott and asks him to leave. Alone, Muriel succumbs to her emotions and weeps.
Achille Confronts His Feelings
In the morning, Marie-Sophie takes a moment to chat privately with her daughter about her romantic life. Although slightly annoyed, the teenager confesses that she is seeing someone. Marie-Sophie advises her to take things slow. Once on her own, Charlotte begins researching Hugo online.
At school, Charlotte informs Achille that Tom has approached her, asking her to stop discussing Christophe. Achille is not surprised, recognizing Tom’s protective nature as he sees himself as a big brother. Charlotte insists that this isn’t the case and wishes Tom would back off. After promising to have a word with her, Achille expresses his belief that Tom is ultimately a good guy and that they might even become friends, a notion Charlotte is skeptical about.
During their lunch break, Charlotte leads Achille to a parking lot near the police station, where they decide to vandalize Hugo’s car with spray paint. Despite initial hesitation, Achille ultimately joins in.
The duo later retreats to a secluded fisherman’s cabin by a pond. After sharing a tender moment, Achille admits that he hasn’t felt this good in a long time, especially since his father’s passing. Charlotte reassures him that Christophe would be proud of his actions, particularly in avenging him by tagging Hugo’s vehicle.
Meanwhile, Hugo discovers the graffiti on his car that reads, “The florist lives on.” He wastes no time contacting Cécile to inform her about the incident. Taken aback, she seeks to understand the context behind the act. Hugo explains that Achille likely uncovered his father’s past involvement in his arrest, potentially through his computer. Cécile suggests they should talk again the following day, thanking him for the heads-up.
Upon returning home, Cécile confronts Achille, who asserts that Hugo got what he deserved, claiming that his father might still be alive had it not been for him. Achille also accuses Cécile of deceiving him about the circumstances surrounding his father’s death. Cécile defends her actions, insisting that she was merely waiting for the right moment to discuss the truth with him.
