Sylvain and Julie play with fire

Julie’s boss is annoyed because the hotel’s surveillance system is down until the next day. The young woman then suggests that he warn the customers to take care of their belongings, but the boss refuses because he doesn’t want to have a mess on his back. He prefers to ask employees to be more vigilant.

At the police station, Manu and Akim think of a gift idea for Alex’s birthday. Manu suggests booking a table at a Michelin star restaurant, but Akim is not convinced. He was thinking about a weekend in Barcelona.

Just then, Alex arrives and overhears their conversation. Akim quickly leaves, but Alex senses that his colleagues are hiding something from him. He wonders if they are planning a surprise birthday party for him. Manu avoids the question.

Sylvain visits Julie at the hotel. He continues to trick her into believing that he is returning from Majorca. He brought her a box of towers. He then asks his girlfriend to stay a bit so he can give her opinion on the new cocktails he wants to add to the menu this fall. He accepts without hesitation.

Meanwhile, Mr. Lejeune, a regular guest at the hotel, arrives at the establishment. The innkeeper goes to meet him. He tells her that he has been upgraded and that he has made available to him the Cleopatra Suite, which is the best room in the hotel.

In the evening, Mr. Lejeune finds Guilhame in the hut and presents him with a collection of watches. Gillham finds them too classical for his taste. He’s looking for a more unique model like the one he’d like to give to a friend. He then describes his friend.

He is dark-haired, a lawyer and very elegant. Mr. Lejeune is sure he has a great watch, but he left about ten special pieces in his hotel room. The one he’s thinking of belonged to General de Gaulle. A model that will perfectly fit a woman.

After drinking a few cocktails and getting drunk, Julie and Sylvain take a reckless risk to cement their relationship. She offers him to go on an adventure by staying in the most beautiful hotel room. There they share an intimate moment and fall asleep.

A few moments later, Mr. Lejeune returns to his room. The sound of the door wakes the two lovers, who grab their belongings and carefully retreat to the hammam. Then the steam generator is turned on.

Manu makes a promise to Tom

While wandering through the gallery thinking about Virgil, Alix receives a message from the latter. He sends her a photo of a sailboat at sunset with the words “I’m thinking of you.” Unfortunately, this message is short-lived and disappears as quickly as it appeared.

At the same time, he receives a call from a journalist from France Bleu who wants to take him in to discuss Virgil. Annoyed, Alix tells her that she doesn’t know anything. The journalist insists, but Alix gets angry and listens.

At the police station, Manu informs Tier and Akim that the search for Virgil is on hold. It should now be outside territorial waters. Accordingly, Interpol will take over. However, they continue to investigate Buddha Blue.

Thierry fears he won’t find anything because the dealers are hiding. Manu asks them to be patient. He reminds that the 14-year-old boy is dead and he does not want any more victims.

In turn, Obert finds one of his dealers. The latter offers to take care of Tom, but Obert asks him to stop doing it. The dealer agrees with him. He is sure that the police are completely on Virgil and will not come to worry them. Obert still advises him to be careful, as Virgil is probably not the only suspect.

Not far from there, Emma finds Natalie at the bottom of her building. She is tensed and asks her mother if she has spoken to Tom. The latter replies that Tom did not want to say anything. Emma then tells her mother that her son was involved in the drug trade and that without Virgil’s help, he would have already died.

Virgil had to run to protect her. Emma advises Natalie to take care of Tom and put him on her own for once. Natalie promises him. The waiter points out that if he doesn’t protect Tom, things could end very badly.

At the end of the lesson, Tom is approached by Manu. He introduces himself as a friend of Virgil and specifies that he is also a police captain. He reassures Tom. He’s not going to chase her.

Manu tells the young man about his intention to dismantle the drug trafficking network. Tom then assures him that the policeman can count on his cooperation. Manu leaves her a business card. In case of the slightest trouble, he can call her. Manu wants to protect the tribe in honor of Virgil.

When Tom returns home, Natalie tells him she’s going to take care of everyday life from now on. He would find a job and Tom would be able to concentrate on high school. However, Tom fears that his mother will fall back into gambling once she has the money, but Natalie tries to reassure him. He wants to prove her wrong.
