Mélanie and Eric discuss their future as a couple in a restaurant, when he receives a phone call, forcing him to leave. Mélanie gets angry about it, they argue heatedly and he leaves on his motorcycle. The next day a road worker finds his corpse on a road shoulder but the SR discovers that the body was moved from the crime scene to make it look like an accident. Eric was Victor Bondy's son, threatened for his environmental struggle, in particular with the agricultural company of Robert Catiaux, the father of Mélanie.

While at Château of the Caussade's tourist visits guided by Hélène Delpech start, in the stables, Marc Souchon, stable boy, prepares Countess Anaïs de Caussade's horse for her daily ride.

While driving, Julien Laval leaves a message on a voicemail asking for an urgent call back. The next day, the workers of the cork factory where he works as an accountant find his corpse. Marie Boulard, lawyer and friend of Julien's, informs the SR that she was the recipient of the message in which Julien confessed that someone is dead and that he was responsible.

While Pauline Reynaud records sounds in the forest for a documentary about the local fauna, she hears a dog howling and then Gabrielle Eden, owner of the inn she is staying, crying for help.

It is the second attack under similar circumstances in the area.
