As he is looking for Anthony Pasquali's mobile phone, Vincent surprises Alice, who has no other choice but to tell him about the video showing Anthony with her sister.

She also blames him for having sent Anthony to her, who had been blackmailing her for several months. Just as the latter clearly becomes the prime suspect, his body is discovered: he had been hit and thrown into the water on the day of the wedding. At the same time, Claire learns that she is seriously ill:...

Claire reveals to Alice that Sandra was driving the car that killed Simon. Claire had previously told Alice and Fabio that she was the guilty party, and had asked the latter to cover her. At the police station, William is remanded in custody for Anthony's murder. It's now Blandine who is blackmailing Claire, demanding a huge sum of money in exchange for her silence. On the spot where her sister was murdered, Alice finds a small mother-of-pearl pendant. Later, in the car with her mother, Claire suffers from violent muscle spasms and the vehicle ends up in a ditch.

In hospital, Alice learns of her mother's illness. She once again becomes close to Vincent, her ex-fiancée.

He also looks back through the file on his brother's death and finds the statements made by Simon's friends four years earlier.
