In the episode ofHere it all begins from Monday May 20, 2024, Claire (Catherine Marchal) joins Vic (Lou Ladegaillerie) for their morning private lesson. Very inspired by the flavor association guide that her teacher gave her, the young woman is doing very well. During the conversation, Claire confides to her student that she and Olivia (Virginie Caliari) have separated…
Later, Vic presents a very beautiful plate during Chef Listrac’s class. The latter asks him what his secret is, to which Vic replies that Chef Guinot is helping him a lot at the moment. Listrac is not surprised, Claire being a very gifted chef and teacher. Hearing him talk like this about his ex, Vic feels a pang in his heart. She would like to find how to reconcile Guinot and Listrac… At the end of the day, she finds Chief Guinot and talks to her about what Listrac said about her. Claire understands that Vic is trying to repair his relationship with Olivia and finds it caring, but she thinks thatunfortunately there is nothing more to do.
Livio investigates on behalf of Cardone
Hired as head of Double A by Cardone (Alexandra Vandernoot), Livio (Corentin Pellis) returns to the Institute. The director asks her to investigate at Double A to find out who put the messages in the fortune cookies. She is convinced that it is one of the members of Jude’s brigade (Galaad Quenouillère). Livio explains that he prefers to concentrate on his position as leader, but Cardone leaves him no choice. The only reason she hired him was to be a spy.
Arriving at Double A, Livio begins his investigation. He asks Tom (Tom Darmon) to be his second in command, explaining that he needs someone he can count on 100%. He does not want another scandal like that of fortune cookies which costs him his place. Visibly enticed by the position of second in command, Tom offers to carry out his investigation to find out who is responsible. But he does just the opposite. At the end of the day, the young man goes to see Billie (Margaux Aguilar) in the locker room and advises him to be wary of Liviowho is presumably investigating on behalf of Cardone. Billie denies being the originator of the messages slipped into the fortune cookies, but Tom doesn’t believe her. He recognized his style. He knows it by heart. And if he warns her, it’s because he doesn’t want her to be excluded from the Institute.
Kelly wins the semi-final against Cardone
The time has come for the semi-final of the Coupe de France. While Jasmine’s brigade (Zoï Séverin) confronts leader Lucas, Kelly (Axelle Dodier) finds herself facing Lenglard (Victoria Monfort). Participants are instructed to cook the 2-star dish of their choice. At each bell, they will be able to sabotage the preparation of the opposing brigade, forcing the latter to adapt each time.
At the first sound of the bell, Lenglard raises the temperature of the oven to burn Kelly’s preparation. Kelly drowns the sauce in grapefruit, which forces Lenglard to make up for it with sugar. Teyssier (Benjamin Baroche) finds that his little protégé isn’t going hard enough, but Kelly has a very specific plan… At the last bell before the end of the test, she puts vanilla in Lenglard’s sauce. With the sugar that she added beforehand, the preparation is completely ruined. Lenglard has no way of catching up and must prepare a new one. She is running out of time.
Thanks to his ingenuity, Kelly wins the semi-final against Lenglard. For her part, Jasmine also imposes herself. The final will therefore be played between the two students of the Institute… Delighted, Kelly struts in front of chef Lenglard and tries to find out if it was she who drugged Laëtitia (Florence Coste) and sabotaged Salomé’s bike. The chef denies it. She thinks Kelly has another enemy at the Coupe de France…
Jim is suspected of having drugged Laëtitia and sabotaged Salomé’s bike
Back at the castle, Jasmine finds it hard to be happy of his victory against chef Lucas. She knows that she will have to face Kelly in the final and she dreads it a lot. Either she beats her friend, or she loses and gets kicked out of the Institute by Cardone. Jim (Loan Becmont) thinks his girlfriend shouldn’t feel guilty about beating Kelly. She deserves her place in the Cup as much as she does.
At the end of the day, Salomé goes to see Kelly and tells her something. While going to get her X-rays at the hospital, she came across a nurse who told her that a young blond man had come to see her in the middle of the night when she was sleeping. She showed him a photo of Jim, and the caregiver confirmed it was him. Salomé, Kelly and Lionel (Lucien Belvès) deduce the improbable: Jim is the one who drugged Laëtitia and sabotaged Salomé’s bike. He is obviously ready to do anything to win.
