🎬 Here It All Begins spoiler: Rose and Teyssier discover the true link between Clotilde and Hector Jourdain… We were all wrong!

The Auguste Armand Institute is once again the scene of a shocking revelation. Just when everyone thought they knew the secrets of the Armand clan, a truth buried for decades resurfaces, shattering already fragile certainties and equilibrium. Rose and Teyssier, delving into the past to understand certain inconsistencies surrounding the Jourdain case, will uncover an explosive secret: the connection between Clotilde and Hector Jourdain is not what everyone believed. And what they discover will forever change their perception of her.

It all begins when Rose, intrigued by a series of documents found in the Institute’s archives, stumbles upon an old correspondence between Auguste Armand and Hector Jourdain. The letters, dating back several decades, allude to a collaboration but also to personal tensions. Rose detects troubling clues: certain phrases suggest that Hector may have had a much closer relationship with a member of the Armand family. Meanwhile, Teyssier, who is investigating the inheritance of land that once belonged to Jourdain, discovers inconsistencies in the signatures and discreet bank transfers made more than twenty years ago.

Curious and, above all, suspicious, Teyssier tells Rose about it. Together, they decide to dig deeper, away from Clotilde’s prying eyes. But as they piece together the information, one thing becomes clear: Clotilde is hiding something from them. A truth she has carefully concealed, even from her own sister. Rose, torn between family loyalty and the need to understand, hesitates. But Teyssier, true to form, refuses to let go. “Secrets poison families, and in your case, they’ve already done enough damage,” he tells her coldly.

The unlikely duo then set about piecing together the puzzle. They interviewed former employees, consulted administrative records, and eventually unearthed an altered birth certificate. This was the turning point: the document proved that Clotilde was not only related to Hector Jourdain through a professional collaboration… but by blood. The shock was immense. According to the recovered papers, Clotilde was in fact Hector Jourdain’s biological daughter, born from a secret relationship between him and a married woman at the time—and this woman was none other than Rose’s mother, Mireille Armand.

Rose is devastated. Everything she thought she knew about her family crumbles in an instant. She realizes that Clotilde, her sister whom she has always perceived as distant and sometimes haughty, could in fact be her half-sister from another father. Teyssier, for his part, observes the scene with a mixture of fascination and disbelief. For him, this revelation explains a great deal: Clotilde’s coldness, her constant need to control her image and that of the Institute, her refusal to discuss certain periods of the past.

But the most disturbing part is yet to come. Rose and Teyssier discover that Clotilde has known this truth for years. She apparently discovered it after Hector’s death, when she herself stumbled upon a letter in which he revealed everything to her. Since that day, Clotilde has chosen silence, out of shame and fear of scandal. A decision that has now come back to haunt her.

Determined to get answers, Rose confronts Clotilde in her office. The argument quickly escalates. Clotilde initially tries to deny everything, but finally breaks down. With tears in her eyes, she confesses that it’s all true. Yes, Hector Jourdain is her biological father. Yes, she discovered the truth too late to change anything. And no, she never had the courage to speak about it, neither to Rose nor to her father, Auguste Armand. He would never have tolerated his wife’s betrayal and would likely have destroyed their family.

Rose, devastated, suddenly understands why Clotilde has always carried an invisible weight on her shoulders. Their relationship, marked by tension and recriminations, takes on a new dimension. Behind her authority lay an old pain, a crushing secret. “You could have trusted me, Clotilde… We could have faced this together,” Rose whispers, her voice breaking. Clotilde collapses. For the first time, the cold and uncompromising leader lets her guard down.

Meanwhile, Teyssier, though moved by the scene, also sees the practical consequences of this revelation. If Clotilde is indeed Hector Jourdain’s daughter, it could call into question the legitimacy of certain inheritance rights, or even the leadership of the Institute. He already knows that this affair, if it were to come to light, would cause an unprecedented scandal. And yet, deep down, he hesitates to reveal it publicly. For despite their differences, he feels a certain respect for Clotilde.

But fate intervenes. While Rose tries to process the news, a food journalist, sensing a scoop, obtains a copy of the falsified birth certificate. Within hours, the rumor spreads beyond the Institute. Social media erupts: “Clotilde Armand, an illegitimate heiress?” “The Institute founded on a lie?” The scandal breaks.

Faced with the media storm, Rose and Teyssier decided to protect Clotilde, no matter what. Rose spoke publicly, stating that “the Armand family remains united in truth and tradition, whatever happens.” Behind this reassuring declaration, the pain persisted. The trust between the two sisters was shattered, but a form of understanding emerged from this chaos.

In the final minutes of the episode, Clotilde, alone in her office, stares at an old photograph of Hector Jourdain. Her eyes wander into space. “I never wanted this to resurface…” she murmurs. But a shadow appears behind the half-open door: Teyssier, a silent witness, watches her without a word. An enigmatic half-smile plays on his face. The master of secrets may have found a new weapon…

💥 This November 11th episode promises to be a major turning point in Here It All Begins . The truth about the connection between Clotilde and Hector Jourdain shakes everything up: alliances, inheritances, and even hearts. Because even if “we were all wrong,” it remains to be seen how far the Armand family is willing to go to protect what’s left of their name.
