The episode begins with a foiled robbery at a museum in Nice, France. The robbers were trying to steal a painting called "The Holy Family," but they didn't get very far before the police arrived. Despite the fact that the museum's alarms were triggered, they still managed to escape undetected. This leads the police to suspect that there may have been an inside job.

Meanwhile, Florence and Antoine are both summoned to Nice to investigate a different art crime. A painting by a local artist named Jérôme Rivière has been stolen. The painting in question is a portrait of Rivière's wife, and it's worth a lot of money. As it turns out, Rivière himself reported the theft, claiming that the painting had been taken from his home. But something about the case doesn't quite add up.

Florence and Antoine start by investigating Rivière's home, which is located in a luxurious villa overlooking the sea. They find that the villa is practically a shrine to Rivière's wife, with pictures and artwork of her displayed throughout the house. But they also find some suspicious evidence - there are traces of paint on the floor, suggesting that someone has been working on a painting recently. And the painting supplies aren't the only items out of place. Florence and Antoine also find evidence that someone has been in the villa who shouldn't have been there.

While investigating the case, Florence and Antoine are forced to confront some personal issues. Florence is struggling with the aftermath of the events of season 1, and Antoine is dealing with his own relationship troubles. But despite their personal issues, they're both dedicated to their jobs. And as they investigate further, they start to uncover some shocking revelations about Jérôme Rivière and his wife.
