A New Living Arrangement for Alice and Stanislas
Alice visits Angèle’s farm looking for a room to rent, only to find that Stanislas is also considering the same option. The kitchen professor is taken aback to see his colleague there.
After touring the room, Alice expresses her excitement to Angèle, indicating her desire to rent it. Meanwhile, Stanislas is more hesitant and admits to Alice, ‘I didn’t realize in the ad that we would be roommates with you, me, Angèle, and Coline.’
Concerned about the potential impact on the student, Stanislas expresses his worries about their cohabitation. To clarify their decision, Alice and Stanislas decide to consult Coline. When they inform her about their plans to live together, Coline isn’t bothered and replies, ‘The farm is huge, so we won’t run into each other that much.’
Later, Alice and Gaëtan take a moment to reflect on their relationship. Gaëtan expresses his desire to see Alice more frequently and to share his space with her. Just as things heat up between them, Stanislas unexpectedly arrives to share a toast with Alice, who then reveals to Gaëtan that Stanislas will be her new roommate.
Carla Takes a Step Back from Souleymane
Meanwhile, Carla is feeling low. Bérénice is upset with her for being involved with Souleymane and has lost trust in her. Carla is at a loss for how to regain that trust.
Souleymane suggests that Carla should create some distance between them, acknowledging that she hasn’t been herself since her breakup with Bérénice: ‘I want you to be happy, and for that, you need to be with her.’ With a heavy heart, Carla comes to terms with the need to step back from Souleymane.
Later on at the Auguste Armand Institute park, Bérénice urges Carla to open up to her. Carla admits she has distanced herself from Souleymane: ‘We decided to take some distance to protect you. I want to restore your trust.’
Surprised, Bérénice asks Carla if she can truly act as if Souleymane doesn’t exist. Carla affirms, saying that her priority is her girlfriend: ‘You are my queen, I can’t live without you.’ The two share a kiss, signaling their reconciliation.
A Mysterious Intruder at the Institute
Léonard is still reeling from his encounter with Joachim. Maya and Quentin are equally shocked by the head chef Clotilde Armand’s partner’s reaction, urging Léonard to report the incident to Teyssier, but he prefers to stay quiet.
Eventually, Joachim takes it upon himself to inform Teyssier about the previous night’s events. The director summons him to his office, and Joachim is apprehensive about the possibility of being fired, grappling with guilt over his actions.
Overwhelmed by regret, Joachim confides in his wife: ‘The hardest part of all this is that I can’t accept that she’s gone. It doesn’t make sense. How am I going to live without her?’ He breaks down in tears.
Meanwhile, Quentin catches Léonard in the kitchen and seizes the opportunity to offer him advice on enhancing his dish. Their connection deepens, culminating in their first kiss.
After the kiss, Léonard hesitates, expressing concern about the implications for Maya: ‘I’m not sure this is a good idea regarding Maya. If something happens between us, I’m afraid it will ruin everything.’ Quentin agrees, suggesting they remain just friends.
Later, Teyssier gathers Léonard, Joachim, and Gaspard in his office to reprimand them, assigning three weeks of dishwashing as punishment for the students and suspending Joachim for the same duration.
In the locker room, Maya confronts Gaspard about his actions towards Léonard. Alone in the shower, Gaspard hears a noise, only to find himself trapped with the lights suddenly going out. Panic sets in as he screams, ‘Let me out!’
Two hours later, Souleymane and Léonard enter the locker room, amused by Gaspard’s predicament and teasing him until he pleads for help.
That evening, Joachim ponders over some food wrappers and a sleeping bag he found in his shed, suspecting someone may be squatting there.
He heads to the Institute’s park and spots someone entering his shed. Chasing after the mysterious figure, he is taken aback when he finally sees their face and exclaims: ‘It’s you? But how is that possible?’ Who could it be?
