Juliette and Hubert are hosting a concert at the Théâtre du Châtelet, where all proceeds will go to the foundation they are starting to aid disadvantaged children...except they won't, because Hubert is secretly intending to send most of the money to a personal offshore bank account in the Cayman Islands. Little does he know that the stockbroker he's told all of his plans to, Philippe Courbet, is secretly an accomplice of Assane and Benjamin.
Disguised as a deliveryman, Benjamin smuggles Assane into the theater in a large crate. When the guests arrive and the music starts, he stealthily makes his way over to Hubert's private box, where he surprises the businessman and holds a knife to his throat, demanding that he confess to all of his crimes. Assane manages to get several admissions of guilt out of Hubert: namely, that Léonard killed Babakar at his instruction, that he also ordered Fabienne's death, that he'd held Raoul hostage (although he swears that he WouldNotHurtAChild), and that Pascal was the one who murdered Léonard in his apartment. What Hubert doesn't know is that Assane is secretly taping the entire confession on an electronic watch.
Hubert orders his men to hunt Assane down, but Assane manages to evade them and makes for the stage...only to be confronted by Dumont, pointing a pistol and ordering him to freeze. Luckily for Assane, Laugier, Belkacem, and Guédira--who had all watched Assane's recording of Dumont admitting to his own illegal activities--emerge from the shadows and place their commissioner in handcuffs. Dumont is horrified and Assane walks onstage in order to publicly accuse Hubert of all of his crimes, including scamming the donors to the foundation. As the police forces rush towards Assane, Benjamin turns out the lights of the theater.
Assane takes advantage of the darkness and commotion to change into a fireman's suit, while also sending Guédira his recording of Hubert's confession. As Guédira, Laugier, and Belkacem unceremoniously stuff Hubert into the back of a police car, Assane steals a speedboat and sails up the Seine to a small footbridge where he has arranged a meeting with Claire and Raoul. He [[HeartfeltApology apologizes for the distress that he has brought into their lives]], promises that he will always watch over them, and dashes away as the police approach.

The GrandFinale to Parts 1 and 2.
Added DiffLines:
* AtTheOperaTonight: Most of the episode takes place at a swanky fundraising concert thrown by Juliette.
* AvengersAssemble: Assane, Benjamin and Philippe.
* BlackTieInfiltration: Assane gets into Juliette's concert dressed in a full tuxedo.
* ConvenientEscapeBoat: At the end of the episode, Assane jumps into a speedboat in order to escape the police, and begins cruising up the Seine.
* ConvenientlyTimedAttackFromBehind: Just when it seems like Dumont is going to capture Assane, Laugier, Belkacem and Guédira arrive and arrest him for corruption.
* CryIntoChest: Claire breaks down and cries into Assane's chest after he tells her that he needs to skip town for their safety, begging him to be careful and telling him that she and Raoul can't lose him.
* CurtainCall: Almost every major character converges on the concert hall where Assane plans to expose Hubert's crimes once and for all. The only two that aren't there (Claire and Raoul) get their own small arc at the end of the episode.
* DeliveryGuyInfiltration: Benjamin gets into the opera house by posing as a worker unloading computer equipment. Once inside, he changes into a security guard's uniform.
* ElegantClassicalMusician: A number of them appear during the concert sequence.
* EngineeredPublicConfession: Assane enters Hubert's private box in the concert hall and holds a knife to his throat, threatening him with death unless he confesses to all of his crimes. Unbeknownst to Hubert, Assane records the whole thing and sends it to Guédira, who uses it as evidence to arrest him after the concert is finished.
* FriendshipMoment: Right before they pull off their final caper, Benjamin perceives that Assane is [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness uncharacteristically anxious]]. He tries to reassure his friend, telling him that they will be "calm and methodical, as usual," and jokingly reminds Assane that he (Benjamin) is the nervous one of the two. Assane seems legitimately grateful for the support, and manages to regain his confidence.
* JerkassRealization: The final scene has Assane admit that his actions have made things extremely challenging for Claire and Raoul.
* KickingAssInAllHerFinery: Belkacem spends most of the episode in an evening dress. This doesn't stop her from carrying a gun.
* LetOffByTheDetective: After taking Dumont into custody, Belkacem wants to arrest Assane, but Guédira persuades her to allow him to walk free. Temporarily, anyway.
* OffIntoTheDistanceEnding: Assane visits his family one more time and then runs off into the night before the police can catch up to him.
* TheOner: The episode opens with an impressive two-minute-long tracking shot that variously showcases Philippe, Dumont, Hubert and Juliette preparing for the fundraising concert.
* SwordOverHead: Technically a knife, but this is how Assane gets Hubert to confess to his crimes.
