While analysing the crime scene, Michaël and Chloé notice that Noémie's body has been moved. The case takes a new turn when the autopsy reveals a symbol carved into the little girl's scalp: it's Béranger's symbol, the killer's infamous signature! At the abbey, whilst Lucas' efforts to integrate Béranger into the community begin to bear fruit, the new suspicions weighed against the ex-criminal cast doubts on his place amongst them. Is it possible to trust a child-killer? Should he be allowed to stay amongst us? Although everyone around her seems persuaded that Béranger has relapsed, Chloé's investigations lean in favour of his innocence. Is there a copycat at work, someone trying to imitate Béranger's crimes? 2016 Arrow Films

While investigating Béranger's past, Lucas receives a visit from his brother... Patrick Stassart. The latter tries to make him see reason and asks him to make Béranger leave the abbey before it's too late. So Lucas goes on a retreat to his own family, as if he needed to remember the basics. Afterward, he then tests his student Béranger's convictions by entrusting him to Brother William, who heads the abbey's workshop. There, Béranger is given a seemingly impossible task: to repair the community's old truck. For their part, Chloé and Michaël are also scouring Béranger's past, hoping to find someone likely to reproduce his crimes. They discover that while in prison, the famous murderer maintained a passionate correspondence with an admirer, Sarah Decoster, the criminal's biggest "fan". When they learn that she also tried to contact her idol at Vielsart, they decide to use Béranger to lure in the young woman. 2016 Arrow Films
