Inès continues her affair with Antoine, despite Edith’s disapproval. One day, she arrives at his apartment to find him visiting with two Nazi officers. When Inès questions him, Antoine confesses that he believes German rule will be good for France’s future. He defends the Nazis’ actions against Jews, and though Inès is uncomfortable with his ideas, she puts her doubts aside. Over time, however, she becomes less convinced. One night, she and Antoine see Jewish children being taken from the building across the street from them. Antoine defends the act, saying they’re being reunited with their families. Inès decides to return home to warn Céline of the increasing deportations, and Antoine reveals he knows about Inès’s friendship with Céline. Once Antoine falls asleep, Inès returns home. With Inès’s warning, Céline spends the next several days hiding away in Maison Chauveau's secret cave.
Sometime later, after the threat passes, Inès apologizes to Céline for her suspicions about Céline and Michel. Later, Inès apologizes to Michel for her absences and vows to become a better wife.
