In the episode of More beautiful life, even more beautiful from Monday October 14, 2024 – available for streaming – Patrick and Boher talk about Lucie’s condition. Still in a coma, the teenager has a more concentrated level of toxins than the police officer because she is more frail than her step-grandfather. While Patrick, steeped in guilt, still does not remember what he served Lucie and himself to eat, Jean-Paul seems to hold a grudge against him. First, he imagines what would have happened if Raphaël or Aurore, even smaller than Lucie, had consumed the same thing, then he reminds his father-in-law that his loss of memory prevents them from saving his daughter. He then clearly expresses his rage to his commissioner at the fact that he failed to protect her. Jean-Paul shows full of animosity towards Patrick and the latter, although uncomfortable, seems to understand that these words are those of a wounded father.
More beautiful life in advance: Léa and Gabriel charged by the ARS to investigate
At the medical office, Léa gives news of Lucie, still in a coma but stabilized, to Gabriel who received the results of the toxicological analyzes carried out on Jules.

Zoé goes to the university residence to ask Mirta if she can use a quiet room to revise her baccalaureate exams. If Mirta is initially recalcitrant – since the residence is reserved for students who live there – the pleas of Zoé – who admits to having difficulty motivating herself given that she is preparing for the exam as a free candidate – end up being right of his willingness to follow the rules.

While she pretends a bogus revision problem to approach Louis who is finishing his shift, Zoé gets caught in her own trap when Nisma, knowledgeable on the subject in question, offers her help.
When she intercepts Louis again, Zoé bursts into flames. Not only does she not understand why he took this job at the residence, but she also thinks that he has found a new recruit. Imagining herself replaced, Zoé throws a fit of jealousy at Louis, disappointed at not having simply been taken into his confidence.
