Fokke has it all under control again. He only needs to set a good example himself: act normal. Don't stand out. Now only tempt Machteld to come back to Hollands Hoop.

Fokke sends mixed signals after his flaming, but deadly performance. For one he is a hero but for the other the villain. For Sasha, he is neither; he demands leadership from him. Machteld sees Fokke struggling and finally makes a decision. Pepijn peddles with his seed, with varying success.

Fokke's paranoia takes worrying forms. He wants to take measures but Machteld and Pepijn think he sees ghosts. Liesbeth confronts Machteld and questions their friendship. Pepijn is impressed by Thalia and not just by her story.

Just when Fokke thinks it can't get any worse, he comes to a shocking discovery. Machteld goes far to restore friendship with Liesbeth. Pepijn closes his eyes to Thalia's imperfections and is carried away in a new adventure. Lara is preparing for her big night but gets disturbed.

For Fokke, the loss is the proverbial drop and the madness prevails. Sasha's intervention heralds a new status quo. Pepijn finally dares to trust Talia. He takes her to Hollands Hoop and finds a big chaos there. Lara suspects that something is wrong with her family.

When Fokke wakes up, his whole world is turned upside down. Machteld has difficulty dealing with the betrayal and takes Uwe into confidence. He comes with a proven religious recipe that she can use. Pepijn loses everything and returns to Hollands Hoop on Christmas Eve. The family is complete again. Lara observes her family and draws the only correct conclusion.

Fokke looks with sadness at what his influence is on Machteld. They compete about how to proceed and each choose their own path. Their methods may differ but their purpose is the same; as long as they don't bother each other ... Talia brings a risky solution. Lara finds out that only one person is not lying to her and draws her own plan with potentially fatal consequences.
