🔥 Here it all begins: Clotilde confronts her past, Teyssier is in danger, and truths finally come to light!

The Auguste Armand Institute is once again shaken by a series of revelations and tensions that threaten to change everything. In this episode 1305 of Here It All Begins , airing Wednesday, November 12, 2025 , secrets from the past resurface as alliances shift and hearts waver. No one will emerge unscathed from this day where lies, loyalty, and revenge become dangerously intertwined.

🌒 Clotilde cornered: the past resurfaces

Clotilde Moreau thought she had buried a thirty-year-old sin. Yet, Hector’s return turns everything upside down. Since resurfacing, this man seems determined to make her pay for an accident for which she still tries to deny responsibility. But his nervous behavior betrays a truth she can no longer hide. When she stumbles upon an object belonging to Hector, a brutal memory haunts her: that fateful night when everything changed.

Those around her are beginning to have doubts. Rose, increasingly suspicious, senses that her sister is hiding something enormous from her. Teyssier, for his part, is starting to understand that he is at the heart of a secret far bigger than he anticipated. Clotilde tries to maintain appearances, but the slightest word, the slightest glance, now seems to betray her.

Hector’s return also reopens old wounds at the Institute. Some of Auguste Armand’s former students, now professors themselves, recall the rumors that once circulated about an accident that was never solved. The net closes dangerously around Clotilde, who senses that her reputation and career are threatened.

⚡ Teyssier: the hotel, a ticking time bomb

Meanwhile, Teyssier pursued his grand gastronomic hotel project with an enthusiasm bordering on obsession. He saw this new establishment as an extension of his empire, a way to definitively etch his name in the history of French gastronomy. But his arrogance ultimately proved costly.

While officially announcing the creation of this hotel at a triumphant meeting, he remains completely unaware of the machinations brewing behind the scenes. Some professors and students fear that this project will corrupt the spirit of the Institute. Antoine, ever more cautious, tries to warn Teyssier: this expansion could divide the school. But, true to form, the headmaster listens to no one.

What he doesn’t know is that Hector is taking a very close interest in this project. And for good reason: he seems to possess compromising information about the Moreau family… and about Teyssier himself. A mysterious anonymous letter arrives on the director’s desk: a few words are enough to sow discord. “You don’t know everything about your allies.” Intrigued, Teyssier begins to conduct his own investigation, unaware that his steps are bringing him dangerously close to Clotilde.

❤️ Heart and food: between passions and betrayals

At the institute, romantic entanglements abound. Kelly and Lionel are going through a rough patch: between professional ambitions and misplaced jealousy, their relationship is teetering precariously. Kelly, who dreams of joining the hotel staff, clashes with a wounded Lionel.

Meanwhile, Billie and Tom reconnect after a series of misunderstandings. But their renewed bond doesn’t escape Malik’s notice, who is clearly still in love with her. Tensions rise, especially since the three of them are assigned to the same culinary project: a sweet creation themed around memory. Ironically, each of them brings a bit of their own story to the project, leading to exchanges that are both tender and explosive.

Meanwhile, Jude tries to reconnect with Enzo, still scarred by last year’s betrayal. A group cooking challenge forces them to collaborate, and, against all odds, the magic happens once again in the kitchen. A deeply moving scene serves as a reminder that, in this school, a passion for cooking remains the only true common language.

🔥 The final shock: a secret revealed

The day seems to be drawing to a close, but an unexpected event turns everything upside down. As Clotilde prepares to leave the Institute, Hector intercepts her at the exit. The two exchange harsh words. He pushes her to her breaking point, mentioning “the car,” “the rainy night,” and “the one who was never found.” Clotilde loses her composure, her eyes fill with tears: the memories overwhelm her.

Without realizing it, she half-heartedly admits her responsibility in the accident that occurred thirty years earlier. And what’s worse, Teyssier overhears the conversation. Frozen in place, he understands that the woman he has worked with for so many years is carrying a dark secret connected to the Institute itself.

This revelation hits like a bombshell. Clotilde collapses, realizing that everything has just crumbled. Teyssier says nothing—but his gaze speaks volumes. The bond of trust between them has been shattered. And for the first time, the iconic chef seems shaken, not by professional betrayal, but by human deceit.

🌪️ An open ending, full of promise

As night falls on the Institute, faces harden, secrets deepen. Hector disappears again, leaving behind a Clotilde on the brink of despair and a Teyssier haunted by what he has just learned. The hotel, meant to be a fresh start, could well become the stage for a chilling revenge.

In the shadows, Rose vows to understand what is eating away at her sister. And while Antoine tries to maintain peace within the school, a new danger looms. For if Clotilde lied for thirty years… who else at the Institute is still hiding an unspeakable past?
