Here is a complete spoiler of approximately 900 words for the film titled:

The October 29th episode opens with a deceptive calm at the Auguste Armand Institute. After several days of tension and emotion, everything seems to have returned to normal. The students are busy in the kitchen, the teachers are resuming their routines… but a shadow still hangs over everyone: Carla . Since her accident, the young woman has lost her memory, and despite all the efforts of her loved ones, nothing seemed able to bring her back to reality. Yet, in this heart-wrenching episode, everything is about to change.

From the very first minutes, the camera lingers on Carla’s face, sitting alone in the Institute’s park. Her vacant eyes and hesitant gestures betray a profound distress. Around her, the world seems to move on without her. Bérénice , her closest friend, tries once again to speak to her, hoping for a reaction:
” Do you remember me?”
But Carla gently shakes her head. She smiles politely, without emotion, like a stranger in her own life.

Inside the Institute, Antoine Myriel and Teyssier clash over the best way to help the young woman. Antoine argues for gentleness and time: “We need to let her find her bearings again.” Teyssier doesn’t believe it: “If she doesn’t remember anything, she won’t be able to keep up here.” The argument escalates between the two men, while Clotilde Armand tries to calm the situation.

Meanwhile, Bérénice refuses to give up. She has spent hours gathering objects from Carla’s past—photos, notebooks, recipes, mementos of their early days at the Institute—hoping to trigger something. She arranges them in Carla’s room, hoping these fragments of memory will touch her. When Carla enters, she observes the scene curiously, uncomprehending. Her fingers brush against a photo of herself and Bérénice laughing in the kitchen. Her gaze clouds.
” Is that… me?”
” Yes. That’s you. And that’s us.”
A tear rolls down Carla’s cheek, but the memory doesn’t return yet.

The next day, Teyssier organizes another culinary exercise: a symbolic challenge centered on the theme of taste memory. Each student must recreate a dish that evokes a specific emotion. Ironically, Carla, who can’t even remember her favorite dish, is forced to participate. Initially lost, she observes the others, then closes her eyes and breathes deeply. A smell, a flavor, comes to her. She begins to cook almost mechanically, guided by instinct.

Teyssier watches her, intrigued. Her movements are precise, fluid, as if she’s regaining her old reflexes. When she presents her dish, a simple vanilla and citrus dessert, a silence falls. Teyssier tastes it and looks up at her:
” It’s the first time in weeks I’ve been able to cook at your level.”
Carla, surprised, looks down. Then a flash crosses her mind. Blurry images return: a kitchen, laughter, an argument, Bérénice’s face. She staggers.

Bérénice, distraught, rushes to her side. Carla whispers:
” I remember… I made this dessert for you.”
This is the first real sign of regained memory.

But this revelation isn’t enough to ease the tensions. Antoine, worried, wants her to see a neurologist before resuming intensive classes. Teyssier, on the other hand, sees an opportunity: “If she regains her memories through cooking, this is where she should stay.” The debate resumes, but Carla decides for herself:
” I want to stay. I want to understand what happened to me.”

In a moving scene, she confides in Bérénice what she’s feeling:
” It’s like I have two lives. The one before, which I only see in fragments, and the one now, where everything is blurry.”
Bérénice encourages her to follow her instincts. Together, they decide to revisit the recipes they invented before the accident, hoping that repeating the steps will bring back the rest of her memory.

The following sequence is a poetic montage: we see Carla cooking, tasting, closing her eyes, then startled by each new memory. The memories return in fragments: the heat of the oven, a burn on her finger, a fit of laughter with Bérénice, a cutting remark from Teyssier… Little by little, the pieces of the puzzle fall into place.

But everything changes when she stumbles upon a recipe annotated in her own handwriting, marked with the phrase: “So I never forget what I felt that day.” This phrase triggers an emotional storm within her. She finally remembers the tragedy: the night of the accident. A violent argument, the rain, a skid, the impact. The memory is so brutal that she collapses, overwhelmed by grief.

Bérénice finds her crying, curled up on the floor.
” I saw everything again… I was the one driving that night.”
This secret turns everything upside down. For weeks, everyone believed the accident was someone else’s fault, but Carla realizes she’s partly responsible. It’s this trauma, this guilt, that had blocked her memory.

Antoine and Clotilde, having been informed, fear that she is not ready to face the truth. But Carla, determined, refuses to hide:
” I was afraid to know. Now, I want to move forward.”

In the final part of the episode, Carla returns to the kitchen to confront her past. She decides to recreate, for the first time since the accident, the entire menu she was supposed to present that evening. Emotions run high. Each gesture seems to liberate her a little more. When the dish is finished, she brings it to Teyssier, who tastes it without a word, then whispers,
” Welcome back to the land of the living, Carla.”

Tears welled up in the young woman’s eyes. She turned to Bérénice, took her hand, and simply said,
” Thank you for never abandoning me.”

The camera slowly rises, revealing Carla smiling for the first time in a long time. The sun sets over the Institute, a symbol of rebirth.

This episode marks a major turning point in Here It All Begins . By regaining her memory, Carla not only rediscovers her past—she also redefines her future. Her unbreakable bond with Bérénice is strengthened, and Teyssier’s usually harsh gaze betrays, for once, a certain respect.

October 29 will remain etched in our memories as one of the most intense moments of the series: an episode where memory, guilt, and redemption intertwine to bring a broken heroine back to life.
