Rolande confesses she feigned love to trap Jérôme, gaining his trust to uncover Elisabeth's murderer.

This episode is the second part of 'La Cagliostro se venge', based on Maurice Leblanc's work, continuing a dramatic narrative arc. It opens with an accusation against the listener, implicating them in the murder of Barthélémy and a subsequent attack on Simon Lorient. Rolande de Lisée narrates her investigation into her sister Elisabeth's death, suspecting Jérôme Elmas, Elisabeth's fiancé. She reveals her strategy of pretending to love Jérôme to lower his guard and gather evidence. Georges Dugrival visits Rolande, disclosing a theft including a ring that matches one Jérôme claims is from his mother. This ring becomes key evidence. Rolande confronts Jérôme, showing the identical rings and accusing him of the murders. Jérôme, overwhelmed, signs a confession admitting guilt for Elisabeth's and Simon Lorient's deaths, as well as falsely accusing Félicien. After Jérôme leaves, Rolande and Félicien share a moment of relief and connection. Raoul Daverny secretly retrieves the signed confession to handle legal matters. The episode blends mystery, psychological manipulation, and a resolution that ties up the central crime while hinting at ongoing subplots involving characters like Faustine.
