Nothing happened between Charlie and Chris, thank god. Yet?
The brigade is called to the Nantes University medical school, where student Damien and Dr Brassier, a professor’s wife, have been found dead in a dorm room, a Killer Bong close at hand. Was the doctor as faithful as her husband maintains? Or was she the collateral victim of squirrely dealer Amaury? Samy's alumni status, as well as being a legend of the med school's secret society chapter, gives him and Charlie access to the victims’ friends, rivals, and secrets.
NOTES
1’46”: The Universite de Nantes medical school (Faculte de Medecine) is not really named after Marie Curie, despite the sign the show put at what is supposed to be the campus entrance (2’17”). The real school is not in such a park-like setting.
The Sherlock link mangles elements of the Doyle short story “The Adventure of the Devil’s Foot” (4’24”). In that Holmes case Mortimer Tregennis murders his sister and drives his brothers mad using poison vapors from burning a toxic root in a lamp; he was then killed with the same MO by his cousin Dr Sterndale.
The faluches (6’44”) are black velvet berets. The ribbons and pins are like merit badges.
The Faluchards correspond to a fraternity, albeit a coeducational one. Hazing is illegal in France, but initiation ‘challenges’ are practiced.
The rule about not looking inside someone’s faluche (7’18”) seems to be real.
Plan beuh (10’17”) means ‘to get together to smoke weed.’
Datura (11’00”) are in the nightshade family.
Corpo (20’14”) is short for ‘corporation’ and is often a sort of sarcastic name for business. It is also a colloquial term for ‘faculty,’ but can also be applied to an organization or club. I’ve chosen the latter since it turns out that the planned soiree is a Faluchards party.
Remember from Les Pennac(s) that EHPAD (21’55”) stands for ‘Accommodation establishment for dependent elderly people.’
24’47”: Sherlock was an expert on every type of tobacco, whereas Charlie is working on food ingredients.
Mauviette (25’19”) means ‘sissy,’ ‘wuss,’ ‘chicken, etc.
René Laennec (26’14”) was a doctor in the early 19th century, who was also a musician and made flutes. He combined the two talents by inventing the stethoscope.
Doryphores (36’31”) are also known as Colorado potato beetles.
Charlie’s memory at 39’36” doesn’t match what Samy just said at 36’31”.
Chasseurs alpins, ‘Alpine Hunters’ (42’27”), is the mountain infantry unit of the French army.

The George Bull Institute (27’03”) is a made-up medical research organization.
It sounds like a nervous Charlie says un gars, ‘a guy’ (30’01”), as a sort of silence filler. It doesn’t really mean anything, unless it’s supposed to be redundant of ‘me,’ so I’m omitting it.
The earlier part of Charlie and April’s text thread (31’42”) reads:

A: You have no idea how good it felt talking to you. Thank you.C: Me too, I’m happy that we could talk to each other. Good night April.A: See you soon?

42'08": LOL, Samy changes into the same shirt in a different color, and his usual windbreaker.
44’11”: This is weird– the joke ‘replaced the vodka with water/you’re the smartest person I know’ (confusing eau and know) doesn’t work in French OR English, because eau rhymes with ‘know’ and not with connaisse, and neither does ‘water.’
