At the end of this season, the Goulet sisters will retire. As always, Valmont wouldn't be the village as we know it if it weren't for the occasional murder or two! Let's see what co-authors Sylvie Lussier and Pierre Poirier have prepared. Ms. Lussier tells us everything… or almost!
The hostage situation of Marc Trempe (Marc Béland) will be solved in January and will have an impact on several people. “Marie-Luce (Maude Guérin) was very afraid for her sisters because she was powerless in the face of the danger that threatened her!” This is the first time we see Marie-Luce so weakened. Everyone is worried about her. It will take some time for him to find his fighting side,” explains Sylvie Lussier.
THE EFFECT ON HOSTAGES
Marie-Louise (Martine Francke) and Marie-Christine (Julie Beauchemin) decide to live together. You don't want to live alone anymore. “Marie-Louise’s house is big. Faubert (Antoine Durand), who knew nothing about this hostage-taking, blames himself a little. Then he will address the big request to Marie-Christine. Charles (François Papineau) doesn't trust him. “This season, Faubert will pay the price for his association with Tina (Brigitte Poupart) in their shady affairs,” the author tells us. Tina has fled and hires her accomplice to retrieve her war chest, which is hidden in all sorts of bank accounts. She provides him with a bodyguard to carry out his mission.
FRED, GLADYS…
Gladys (Julie Roussel) is also one of the hostages. When Fred (Maxim Gaudette) frees her, he is so happy to see her. He takes her in his arms and then steps back embarrassed. She wants to set up her detective agency together with her father Léopold (Claude Prégent) and Alex (Francis-William Rhéaume), an expert in cybersecurity. She wants to be her own boss and do her own investigations.
“Marie-Louise still sees her handsome doctor Blanchard (Mathieu Lepage). They are attracted to each other but remain cautious. However, Marie-Louise will make a mistake. Marie-Jeanne (Catherine Renaud) will ask him to get information from Blanchard about the autopsy of Dan (Yury Paulau), Tina's Russian bodyguard. Blanchard will realize that Marie-Louise is manipulating him, and this will put their relationship in danger. “On the other hand, the repercussions of this incident will not be enough to make her return with Robert (Jules Philip),” explains Sylvie Lussier. We remember that Marie-Paule (Eve Duranceau) was one of the first to be captured. “She will emerge from this ordeal transfigured. She will find the artist in her and start painting like a madwoman day and night. She will finally find her style, but not only that. She and Francis (Alexandre Bergeron II) will propose to a producer to write a television series about Marc Trempe, and the proposal is accepted! She will be discovered by an agent from New York and will think she is Yoko Ono (laughs),” reveals Ms. Lussier, specifying that we will still have great meetings with the five girls.
“As for Marie-Jeanne, she swims between two bodies of water,” the co-author continues. Since Tina is on the loose, she could be in danger. Is his son still being threatened? Fred is worried. He would like to keep Victor full time, which would cause conflict between the two. Marie-Jeanne is therefore paying the price for her past actions.”
… AND THE OTHERS
Kim (Julie Renault) returns to Valmont. When she sees that her mother is not doing well, she decides to take care of the farm. She now wants to stay with her family and ensure that her daughter sees her father Réginald (Maxime de Cotret). She also returns for Jean-Michel (Frédéric Millaire Zouvi). Corinne (Sonia Vachon) made a lot of money selling the farm. Since Paul (Luc Senay) is more of a macho man, he is tired of the fact that Corinne has more money than him, even though she has always been financially independent. She doesn't understand why this bothers her, and this conflict will bring some discussion.
Yes, we will still see dead bodies! An organ trafficking investigation is launched when the body of a farm worker is found with both of his kidneys removed. “There will also be an investigation into a woman who was killed,” Ms Lussier said. There will be something that will keep us on the edge of our seats until the end!
