After embarking on a new professional adventure together by opening a club, Alix and Virgile savored their success. But a tragedy will soon force them to review their plans…
After both going through a bad patch, Alix and Virgile found new life when their paths crossed in Un Si Grand Soleil. The first, humiliated after her divorce, had set up an escort business which had almost cost her a stay in prison. The second, shattered by the death of his daughter Léa, had almost slipped into banditry again, and ended up settling down by taking over the management of a campsite.
Their fortuitous meeting had then allowed them to have fun between consenting adults, but also to germinate a new fruitful idea. Determined to get back into business, Alix then offered to take advantage of Virgile’s experience as a former bar manager to embark on a crazy project: setting up a top-of-the-range private club in Montpellier.
After a few adventures, both managed to join forces with Justine (Dorylia Calmel), and inaugurated the Senso with great fanfare, attracting a crowd of onlookers. Unfortunately, trouble soon followed: in addition to the sulphurous reputation of the establishment – suspected of being a libertine club – Claire was almost raped there by a client, after her friend Hélène put GHB in her glass.
And according to Nadia Fossier, the interpreter of Alix, things are not ready to work out for the two partners. “By granting an interview for promotional purposes to the local newspaper, they will finally be the targets of a surge of hatred on social networks”, she reveals to the magazine Télé Star.
“They are going to be victims of harassment and unfounded rumours… Alix is going to take it very badly. Virgil, he will be able to react with more distance.But that’s not all: as the magazine reveals, a series of problems will add to the media turmoil, forcing the duo to give up their project.
“Claudine will be assaulted in the parking lot, Claire will be drugged without her knowledge, Sofia will not be able to make a delivery on time and it will create havoc.“, enumerates Fred Bianconi, who plays the role of Virgil. And to top it off … a fire will spread in the establishment.
“Nothing will be spared them“, underlines the actor. If the origin of this fire still remains unclear, Virgile, upset by this disaster, will end up giving up and being tempted when a buyer comes to them to buy the club. “Beyond the memory of the death of his daughter in the fire of the escape game, he especially feels guilty for having put the customers and his team in danger.“
Alix, meanwhile, will be able to show resilience after this failure, according to her interpreter. “Once again, she will have to bounce back. And as it’s a ‘one life’ and has no hindrance, it will throw itself fully into a field where it has never evolved…“
