Carla kisses Berenice in front of the entire institute

To comfort her sister, Constance brings her a breakfast of croissants and pain or chocolate. Berenia is touched, but not enough to forget the public humiliation of the previous day. Indeed, his lesbian erotic fantasy leaked throughout the institution. From now on, everyone knows his sexual orientation and everyone suspects him of fantasizing about Rose Latour.

Berenia admits to Constance that she does not feel the strength to go to the institute. The latter sympathizes and emphasizes that they should go there anyway and ignore those who mock them. At the same time, Berenia receives a message from Miriel, summoning her.

So Berenia goes to the management office where Rose and Antoine are. The deputy director states that the entire teaching team supports him and absolutely does not condone the harassment of which he was a victim. What’s more, Miriel is going to call the students to remake them. Berenia takes the opportunity to reassure Rose that she has no ambivalence about him. The latter does not doubt for a second because he knows how the writing process works as an author. Berenice calmed down. Miriel then tries to find out who could have leaked the text. Berenica suspects someone, but prefers to come back and see when she’s ready.

When she goes to the orchard, Berenia meets Lionel and David, who are re-enacting a scene from her erotic fiction. He encourages them to take things seriously and rehearse the scene like real actors, which completely freaks Lionel out. The two boys leave and leave him alone.

A little later, Carla comes to see Berenice at the vegetable garden to apologize to her for the argument on Wednesday. Berenia then questions her to find out who told her she was a lesbian. Carla says Cardone tipped her off. Berenice quickly bonds with Ethan, who is the only one who knows her sexual orientation. While Carla declares her revenge, Berenia holds her back, preferring to wait a bit before taking action.

But when Carla meets Ethan in the hallway, she can’t help but confront him, accusing Berenice of leaking erotic fiction and telling Cardon about his homosexuality. Ethan replies that his mother just overheard his conversation with Berenice. Furthermore, he does not believe that he can print the text for distribution at the Institute. Very angry, Carla raises her voice to promise to destroy his life. Rose is forced to intervene to stop it.

Rose takes Carla aside and reminds her that it is forbidden to attack students like this, even though she believes she is guilty of betraying Berenice. Rose also emphasizes that the best way to support her would be to be there for her, not to want to stay awake.

Meanwhile, Cardone congratulates Livio: he is the one who printed Bernice’s erotic fiction and distributed it throughout the school. And this only in order to take revenge on Carla, who cruelly rejected him. For his service, Cardone promises Livio to introduce him to Chef Moreira and tell him about his master’s project. His only condition is that no one returns to him. However, Livio points out to him that this news did not separate Carla from Berenice. But Cardone believes that his goal is still achieved, as Berenice is still weakened by the situation.

Later, students gather at the amphitheater. Waiting for Miriel, Berenice is afraid to face her comrades. Carla urges him to be dignified. As soon as they appear in the amphitheater, Berenice is the source of ridicule, especially from Lionel and David. Carla stands in front of them to protect her friend. Jim then openly suspects Carla of liking Berenice.

Carla declares that she has been in love with him for a while, and to prove it, she seduces Berenica, whom she then silently kisses in front of everyone. Berenice was completely moved by this kiss. Carla whispers in her ear that if she believes everyone together, they will leave her alone. Berenice is immediately disappointed…

Solal is surprised

During his gym class, Gaitan challenges Jim to a series of pull-ups. Penelope and Malik witness their competition and set the rules: the loser gets to make everyone’s dessert. Although Penelope predicts that Jimmy will win this challenge again, the latter decides to give up after lifting the fifth series. She agrees to make a small tatin-style apple fritter.

Gaitan entered the kitchen to offer Salome his dessert and explained that Jim had lost the challenge. Salome is touched. Then he goes back to work. Joachim, who overheard their conversation, wonders how Gaetan managed to defeat Jimi so easily when it was the other way around last time. He wants to know if he was taking steroids. The young man says no.

However, Gaitan hides in the institute’s vegetable garden to get the pill. Surprised by Solal, he throws his box on the ground. Seeing him, Solal wonders if he is sick, but Gaitan sharply corrects him.

Bill is torn between values ​​and opportunities

In the cafeteria, Billy tells Tom and Vic that he is going to intern Matilda Carmel at the Geneva Palace. Seeing his friend so excited, Vic prefers to tell him the truth about what he heard the other day: Matilda Carmel is clearly interested in Bill’s “racial” profile. It is completely lost.

At Double A, Billy sets up an interview with Carmel to find out if she was picked because she’s a black woman. The employer acknowledges that Silver Lion recently established an inclusive policy to improve its image. She also notes that she took the position because management feared she would be criticized for not hiring enough women. However, he did not mind this, because it was a way for him to integrate into this environment. But Billy doesn’t know if he can take it. He asks for more time to think about the internship proposal.

While serving, Thibault learned that he had an internship at a Michelin-starred restaurant in Saint-Etienne. Vicki and Bill are surprised because it’s quite difficult to get an internship there. Thibault explains that his father knows the chef. If Vicki is annoyed by this, Bill believes that she is just taking advantage of the opportunity that has been given to her.

At the end of the service, Billie asks Stanislas if he chose her as maitre d’ at Double A because she is a black woman. His teacher assures him that this is not the case and names all the qualities for which he was indeed chosen for this position. Bill then announces that he is going to turn down Carmel’s internship offer, preferring to be chosen based on his skills alone. Stanislas fully respects her choice. Tom praises Bill for staying true to his values, even though he didn’t doubt it for a second. To reassure him, he adds that he loves her for who she is, not for the color of her skin.
