Episode 1292 of Here It All Begins , broadcast this Friday, October 24, 2025, promises to be heartbreaking and full of emotion. Hearts will break, friendships will be put to the test, and certain decisions could change the face of the Institute forever. Just when everything seemed to be finally getting back to normal after the recent tragedies, a new thunderclap hits the students of Auguste Armand. Carla, still fragile after her stroke, makes a radical decision that leaves everyone speechless.

For several days, Bérénice and Carla have been trying as best they can to patch things up. Despite the young woman’s efforts, the gap between them has continued to widen. Carla, in the midst of rebuilding her life, struggles to find her bearings and her old feelings. Her partial amnesia has profoundly changed her, and even though she is aware of Bérénice’s sincere love for her, she can no longer identify with this relationship. A palpable tension is building between them, making their exchanges increasingly painful.

In this episode, an unexpected event throws everything into overdrive. While Bérénice hopes for a fresh start and plans to surprise Carla with a romantic evening to rekindle the flame, Carla realizes she can no longer continue living a lie. The memories that come back to her in bits and pieces aren’t enough to fill the emotional void she feels. During a frank and moving conversation, Carla finally confesses to Bérénice that she no longer feels the same way and that she prefers to put an end to their relationship.

Bérénice, in shock, initially refuses to believe it. She clings to the idea that Carla is acting under the influence of her trauma and that with time, everything could go back to the way it was. But Carla’s words are clear, cold, almost definitive: she doesn’t want to cling to a past she no longer understands. Between tears and incomprehension, the scene is of a rare intensity. Bérénice tries one last time to hold her back, reminding her of their promises, their plans, and everything they’ve been through together. In vain. Carla leaves, her heart heavy, but convinced that it’s the only way to rebuild herself.

This unexpected departure causes a real shock at the Institute. The students and teachers, affected by this breakup, become aware of Carla’s fragility. Constance, always caring, tries to reason with her and convince her not to run away from her problems. But the young woman seems determined: she needs to take a step back, far from everything that reminds her of her accident and her previous life. She therefore announces her decision to leave the Institute. A radical choice that plunges Bérénice into total disarray.

For her part, Rose, deeply affected by the situation, tries to support Bérénice, but the latter withdraws into silence. She doesn’t want to talk to anyone and prefers to concentrate on her classes to avoid collapsing. Jim, a helpless witness to this crisis, is particularly attentive to Bérénice’s suffering, which doesn’t go unnoticed by his classmates. Some even begin to wonder if a new bond isn’t emerging between them.

Meanwhile, Carla’s departure also creates tensions among the teachers. Antoine questions the Institute’s ability to support psychologically fragile students, while Teyssier, true to form, remains pragmatic: according to him, Carla must face reality alone to move forward. This position shocks Rose, who believes, on the contrary, that the young girl needs caring supervision. Debates multiply, revealing a new fracture within the teaching team.

In the kitchens, the atmosphere is heavy. The students are talking in hushed voices, fearing Bérénice’s reaction. Urged on by her friends, Bérénice ends up going to Carla’s dorm for one last attempt. But the room is already empty. On the desk, she discovers a letter. In this farewell message, Carla explains that she’s not leaving to escape Bérénice, but to find herself again, far from the pressure, the stares, and the weight of lost memories. She thanks her former partner for her love, patience, and courage, while asking her not to hold her back.

Reading these words, Bérénice collapses. The tears she’d been holding back for days finally flow, marking the end of a painful chapter. But deep inside, a glimmer of hope persists: perhaps one day their paths will cross again, in a different, more peaceful context.

The episode’s ending leaves a melancholic atmosphere hanging in the air. As Carla leaves, a final shot shows her observing the Institute from afar, her eyes full of emotion. Her gaze, both sad and determined, suggests that this departure is as much an escape as a rebirth.

Meanwhile, other intrigues continue in the background. Jim, still shaken by the tensions between his father and Ferdinand, seeks to assert himself in the kitchen. Meanwhile, Constance and Rose discuss the students’ fragility since the beginning of the year and question the responsibility they bear as adults.

This episode 1292 marks a major turning point in Here It All Begins . Carla’s departure leaves an immense void, while Bérénice, broken but dignified, will have to learn to live without her. Love, memory, and reconstruction are at the heart of this poignant chapter, where each emotion finds a sincere echo in the corridors of the Auguste Armand Institute.

An intense episode, both heartbreaking and full of hope, which reminds us that sometimes, to find ourselves, we have to know when to leave.
