-Christophe L'Allier now works at the Violence Prevention Centre. Yoan, who recently enrolled, did not show up for his second appointment. Christophe calls him when he is in the middle of a crisis. He has just violently shoved his wife, Charlène. His son Noa, the only witness to the assault, goes to the police station with his grandparents, Madeleine and Jean-Pierre. Inspector Fabien Gauthier questions him. Madeleine, who never liked Yoan, contacts the prosecutor Gabrielle Laflamme. With his colleague Roxanne, Christophe reviews the files of the few men who could be brought together for group therapy.
-Christophe and Roxanne lead their first group meeting with, among others, Junior, Marcel, Jonathan and Aziz. Gauthier receives a visit from Lina, who is afraid of her husband, a fellow police officer who reacts very badly to her request for a divorce. Noa has other memories of the attack. He wants to tell everything to the police. Yoan's case becomes more complicated. The latter misses his son a lot. He asks Christophe to find a way to contact him. Gabrielle notices that Charlène persists in excusing her husband. She is indignant of Christophe's efforts to allow Yoan to speak to Noa and lets him know without detour. Christophe is surprised by a visit to the Center of Patrick who gives him the last news of his mother.
-Gabrielle obtains the help of the police officer Morgane Harel to search Yoan's background. Yoan gets a call from his son, Noa, under the supervision of Jean-Pierre and Christophe. In the hope of winning back his wife, Loïc, a young professional of 24 years old, comes to the center, but he does not want to confide in Roxanne. Christophe is looking for a shelter that could take in his mother, who is increasingly losing her autonomy. He manages to find Kevin Bilotta, Yoan's friend who made him fall back into drugs. This one speaks to him about what they lived in adolescence.
-Christophe has found a residence that might be suitable for Edith. With Patrick, he hopes to convince her that it is better for her to move. Loïc comes back to register.

Rajko Lazik, who has installed cameras at the Violence Protection Center, reports the kidnapping of his wife, Aleksa. Constable Harel goes to his home to take his statement.
At Rajko Lazik's house, Constable Harel has noticed clues that lead her to believe that Aleksa was being held captive and has escaped. She discusses the matter with Gabrielle and investigator Gauthier. And indeed, by chance, Sandrine discovered Aleksa, lost and distraught, near a wasteland. As a result, she now finds herself at the shelter, where Sandrine calls in an interpreter to communicate with her. Christophe receives a call for help from Junior that doesn't bode well. Gabrielle is disappointed to see that Marilyn is not inclined to fight for her rights.
Impressed by Christophe's radio interview, Marilyn goes to the Center to meet him. She wants to get to the bottom of what she's been through, and tells him about her relationship with Mathieu. Mathieu's mother, who holds Matilyn responsible for her son's death, is determined to get custody of her granddaughter. She files a report with the DPJ. Évelyne, the caseworker, meets Sandrine as part of her investigation. Roxanne receives a large bouquet of flowers that does not go unnoticed. Gabrielle informs Gauthier of her intention to lay charges against Mr. Lazik and his son.

Christophe stands firm to ensure that Loïc continues with the program for the right reasons. He receives a visit from Marie-Liette Brisson, Junior's mother, who is very worried about him.
Gabrielle does not object to the Laziks' conditional release. Roxanne tells Christophe that she is going to visit her mother with Patrick. As Christophe heads to the detention center to meet Yoan, he is greeted by Linda Jasmin, who introduces him to the deputy director, Michel Vallée.

Gabrielle thanks Maxime for hiding her condition from Philippe. Helena Lazik is discharged from hospital. She has only one wish: to return home, but Gabrielle doesn't see it that way. Sylvie Desjardins, a woman Inspector Gauthier rescued when he was on patrol, asks to see him urgently. She fears for her life and is ready to press charges against her husband, Julio Montoya.

Gabrielle has arranged for her colleague to transfer the case to her. Increasingly intrigued by Christophe, she asks Gauthier, in strict confidence, for information about him.
Christophe is busy finding a place for Maeva. He contacts Sandrine and then the Marie-Labrecque school. Tina was away, so Carolle called him back and told him they didn't want to see her again. Her stay is short-lived, as Maeva seems unable to function in society. At Gauthier's request, Christophe meets Olivier. He wants to talk to Gabrielle about his case as soon as possible. Gabrielle, who is still struggling with Julio's lawyer, Me Lafleur, has little time for him. Gauthier questions Noémie at length, trying to understand why she accepted Olivier's abuse. The mystery surrounding her deepens.

Convinced that her sister Noémie is on the verge of suicide, Rosalie takes her to the emergency room, where she is admitted to the psychiatric ward. Constable Harel visits her and does everything she can to encourage her. Maxime continues to be very worried about Gabrielle. Christophe has a long talk with Hervé and gets him to tell him how he really feels about his two victims. Gauthier has reason to believe that organized crime is out to get Gabrielle and Christophe.
Noémie calls Constable Harel back. Would she welcome his help? It's finally time for Julio Montoya's trial. Gabrielle and Me Lafleur take turns questioning Sylvie. Gabrielle confronts the arrogant Julio about his history with women. Me Lafleur stops at nothing to destabilize his adversary. What will the judge decide? Christophe suggests that Éloi Parenteau, who is suffering violence at the hands of his partner, accompany him to the police to lodge a complaint. Clémence Boivin goes to a veterinary clinic to save her injured dog. She claims he was hit by a car. Harel tells Gauthier that she has just brought Jacinthe Langlois, who supplies Olivier with instruments of torture, to the station.

Agent Harel is lost in conjecture about Clémence's behavior. Réginald, Yoan's father, tells Christophe that he doesn't want to see Yoan because his wife, who is in poor health, couldn't bear it. Christophe tries to find a compromise solution. Gauthier is furious to see that Agent Painchaud is still at reception. He interrogates Clémence and her partner Arthur.
Olivier's trial is underway. Officer Harel testifies, as does Jacinthe, who sold him her torture instruments. Although she testifies by video in another room, it's a very painful experience for Noémie. Christophe confronts Michelle with information he has received about her. He meets Arthur, Clémence's partner, to get him to talk about his relationship with her. Hervé learns that his parole hearing has been moved up.
