Antoine and Suzanne are on the run from the Germans, while the Resistance awaits explosives for the bridge.

After arresting Antoine and Suzanne, Marchetti hopes their captivity will help his negotiations with the Resistance.

The Resistance is reeling from the tragic death of their comrade, while Marchetti awaits a train with the local militia across town.

Retreating German soldiers have taken up temporary shelter in the school, while Hortense and Heinrich are interrogated by American soldiers.

Lucienne focuses all her attention on Kurt, who's gravely wounded; meanwhile, the Resistance meets with De Kervern, the new prefect.

The standoff at the school continues and despite Antoine's efforts to avoid bloodshed, Anselme is determined to extract revenge on the militia.

With a disaster avoided, the new town leadership must decide the fate of the militiamen and the collaborators.

Pressed by his superior to make an example of the militiamen, Bériot must now change his stance.

The trial continues as planned, but a crucial bit of information is revealed to Larcher that hinders the prosecution.

Antoine is charged with rescuing Jeannine Schwartz, while Suzanne is instructed to find damaging information on Bériot.

With Marchetti under arrest and accused collaborators remaining unprotected, the threat of violent reprisals is higher than ever.
