Luna’s Unexpected Reunion in the Visiting Room
During breakfast, Luna is taken by surprise when her rival, Cécilia Lopez (Delphine Chanéac), pays her a visit. Cécilia insists that Luna eat and makes it clear that she holds the upper hand. Just then, a prison guard arrives, instructing Luna to follow her to the visiting room.
Moments later, Luna is embraced by her mother, Mirta, who shares some encouraging news. She reveals that lawyer Master Bataille (Victoria Grosbois) is aware of Luna’s predicament and has arranged for her transfer to a facility in Brittany. Mirta assures her daughter that she will accompany her to this new location.
Later in the day, Cécilia confronts the guard, who happens to be her boyfriend. She criticizes him for not stopping Luna from having a visiting session. Dismissing him, she declares, ‘You are useless!’ However, he vows to do everything in his power to eliminate Luna from the picture.
Steve Sets Out to Win Back Nisma’s Heart
Back at the Massalia residence, Steve returns from a refreshing break, excited to catch up with Yolande and Jules. They eagerly show him their advent calendar, and when Steve opens a door, he finds a poignant message: ‘A star is waiting for you to make it shine.’
As fate would have it, Nisma arrives to greet her former boyfriend. Steve greets her with a smile and tells Jules that he has managed to move on. However, as Nisma leaves, Jules notices the star embroidered on her sweater, hinting that it might connect to the calendar’s message.
Convinced of a sign, Steve decides to pursue Nisma once again. He shares his excitement with Jules, who remains skeptical. Will Steve go through with his plan?
Gathering his courage, Steve approaches Nisma with sincerity: ‘I wanted to tell you that I care a lot about you. I want us to remain friends.’ Nisma seizes the moment to apologize for not reaching out during his incident with Camille. As their conversation calms, the two ex-lovers share a warm hug.
Déborah’s Return to the Mistral
Meanwhile, Emma and Baptiste meet at the Marseille port to discuss a pressing issue: their future child. Emma opens up about her struggles, stating, ‘It’s been so long since we’ve been trying to have a second one. I won’t be the first woman to juggle a demanding job and two children.’
Baptiste realizes that Emma is considering a move back to Australia and has even applied for a high-responsibility position. Frustrated, he asks, ‘Am I supposed to manage the little one and Mathis’s transition to primary school? How will I find a job?’
Emma counters that he has the freedom to choose, asserting, ‘With or without you, I will have this child and in Canberra!’ Baptiste is clearly hurt by her words. Will he follow her to the other side of the globe?
Samuel (Iñaki Lartigue) arrives at the Mistral to inform Thomas (Laurent Kérusoré) that Déborah Larcher’s phone has pinged near the Saint-Germain train station, suggesting she might be struggling alone in the cold.
Later, Mathis expresses to his father his dream of working at the Mistral when he grows up, saying, ‘There will be you, grandpa, uncle, mom, and Romy.’ These words deeply sadden Baptiste.
Noticing his father’s distress, Mathis asks what’s wrong, and Kilian steps in to help: ‘Dad, he’s going to rest at home, and I’ll teach you to be the best waiter.’
Back at their apartment, Baptiste confides in Thomas and Gabriel about Emma’s ultimatum. Gabriel defends Emma, saying, ‘Her life project is over there,’ while Thomas encourages Baptiste to talk to her, but he refuses.
Once alone with his husband, Gabriel tells Thomas he needs to stop living in denial. Thomas, frustrated, replies, ‘You’re being annoying, Gabriel! We are a family, and we stick together.’
In the afternoon, while Thomas and Baptiste care for Romy in the Mistral square, her mother secretly watches, overwhelmed with emotion as she sees her daughter in good hands.
That evening, Baptiste and Mathis meet at the Mistral with little Romy. Just as Déborah is about to enter the restaurant, she witnesses the tender scene and retreats. Will she find the courage to return?
