Mattéo Executes His Plan

At the Comptoir, Jude is ecstatic to reunite with Mattéo, whom he thought he had lost forever. Mattéo shares that he was on the verge of turning himself in to the police but backed out after receiving a concerning threat. Unsure of how to escape his predicament, Jude suggests they flee together, and they agree on this course of action.

Meanwhile, at the marshes' shared residence, Alice questions Gaëtan about his feelings for Solenn. He reassures her that it is Alice he loves, not her sister, which brings her some relief, although she still needs time to heal.

At the Jourdain hotel, Andréa opts to sell a painting that her late ex-husband had purchased to help cover Denis's debts. Denis expresses deep gratitude, while Jeanne believes he should have resolved his financial issues independently. Nonetheless, Andréa takes pride in being able to support her family.

Mattéo then puts his true plan into action by meeting with the robbers at the marshes under the pretense of wanting to claim his share of the loot for a getaway with Jude. In a twist, this encounter is a setup, as Mattéo has alerted the police, who arrive to apprehend the criminals.

The news spreads quickly through the town. At the farm, Stanislas informs Alice about Mattéo's involvement with the robbers, shocking her as she realizes it is him and not Solenn.

At the police station, Mattéo is on the brink of being transferred to prison. The officers allow him a few moments to say goodbye to Jude, who is devastated. However, Mattéo believes he has done the right thing.

Jasmine Faces a Tough Decision

Jasmine tells Lionel and Tom that Naël's diagnosis has been confirmed: he is epileptic. While there is a chance this condition may resolve during adolescence, Naël requires enrollment in a specialized school near a treatment center. Jasmine has secured places for him at both institutions in Bordeaux, where Greg and Eliott plan to join her. To stay close to her son, Jasmine decides to sacrifice her future at the Delobel restaurant.

Later, Jasmine and Tom are playing with Naël, while Bianca watches fondly. Suddenly, Naël experiences a moment of absence, causing Bianca to approach him. She explains to Jasmine that she has seen similar behavior before when she took him horseback riding. Jasmine sharply replies that he has indeed been diagnosed with epilepsy.

Ninon Drops a Bombshell About the Bordeaux School

In an effort to demonstrate her culinary skills, Gary organizes a cooking session with Ninon at his studio. However, Teyssier arrives and sends Gary away to speak with Ninon privately. While she apologizes for her poor exam results, Teyssier believes she has made significant progress.

He then inquires about the situation at the Bordeaux school. Ninon reveals that the new director, Chef Louis Guinot, has completely revamped the institution, leaving Teyssier stunned.
