Monday October 23 in Here it all begins…
David complies with Hippolyte’s demands
Waking up, Deva is surprised to see that David is already about to leave. The latter explains that he must go to the room to prepare everything for the lunch service. When Deva reminds him that they have class with Guinot in the morning, David asks him to cover his absence.
In the classroom, Leonard is one of the first students to arrive. He is impressed by all the work David has already done. When Hippolyte arrives, David finishes cleaning the cutlery with alcohol vinegar. Hippolyte congratulates him for his initiative.
For her part, Deva confides to Billie that she will have to lie to Chef Guinot to cover for her boyfriend. The young woman is uncomfortable with the idea of lying. When the chef arrives, David’s absence is quickly noticed. Tom pulls the rug out from under Deva by saying that the latter is in the room for the set-up. Deva, however, underlines the exceptional nature of David’s absence. In any case, Chef Guinot believes that she should have been warned in advance.
After her class, Claire goes to the principal’s office to complain about Du Chesnay to Antoine. Lisandro, who is present in the office, sets out to clarify this story.
He goes to Double A to ask Hippolyte if he asked David to come earlier today. Hippolyte retorts that the young man came earlier of his own accord. Lisandro implies that David felt obliged to skip class and come early to respond to Hippolyte’s very demanding nature. The latter cuts short the conversation that Rose overheard.
Later, Rose talks about it with Lisandro, admitting that she did not recognize him, as if Hippolyte still had a lot of influence over him. Lisandro retorts that he simply has a lot of respect for him because he could have gone very badly if Hippolyte had not believed in him.
Meanwhile, Guinot meets David in the park and takes the opportunity to tell him that he will have to catch up on his course on ravioli. She instructs him to present her with a plate the next morning. Once the chef leaves, David admits to Deva and Ethan that he does not know how he will be able to work on his plate when he is already in demand by Du Chesnay at Double A.
At the training restaurant, Hippolyte wants to train David on flambéing in front of customers. He prepared a work surface for her with a stack of pancakes, a hot pan and the ingredients needed for flambéing. Being too tall compared to the work surface, David bends over. Hippolyte hits him in the lower back to correct his posture. David endures the blows, several times, harder and harder, without flinching…
Constance finds herself a new challenge
Constance admits to her husband that she still has a little difficulty coming to terms with the departure of their children. However, she sees certain advantages in their new situation, in particular the fact of being able to be together as a couple. She therefore suggests to Emmanuel that they find a new activity to do as a couple.
Later, Constance treats Penelope who sprained her ankle while training for Big Challenge Day. This is a mud obstacle course. This allows him to have fun and let go of the pressure. Pénélope trains in a group with Laetitia and Joachim. She invites Constance to join them.
In the afternoon, the small group trains in the Institute park. Joachim is in charge of training. After a race, he suggests a suspension exercise. Faced with everyone’s admiration, Constance proves that she has resources.
At the Coffee Shop, Constance admits to Pénélope, Laetitia and Joachim that she had a lot of fun and that she plans to continue training with them, as she was looking for a new challenge to do as a couple. Innocently, Penelope suggests that she ask her husband to join their group.
Carla misses being unmasked
Souleymane and Bérénice are waiting for Carla to go to class. As she is late, her two friends have time to chat. Souleymane, who is now aware of Carla’s secret, recognizes that she has guts. At the same time, Bérénice receives a voice message from Carla calling for help.
Souleymane and Bérénice arrive in Carla’s room. Panicked, she can no longer zip her pants. Besides, most of her clothes no longer fit her because she has gained stomach and chest. If Souleymane and Bérénice do not find this blatant, Carla has difficulty accepting her curves. To hide them, Souleymane suggests that she bandages them with straps.
But once in class, the bandage does not hold and protrudes from Carla’s tunic. A detail that Malik immediately notices. Carla becomes aggressive when he makes innuendoes about it. Souleymane and Bérénice suggest to their friend to calm down to avoid drawing attention to herself.
Later, in the cafeteria, Malik confides his suspicions to Tom: he thinks Carla is pregnant. To find out for sure, Tom will ask Carla the question directly. Bérénice immediately defends herself by retorting that she is addicted to sugar and that she has gained 5 kilos since the start of the school year because of this addiction.
