The whole Rodenburg family, led by Marie-Claire, appears at the funeral of the murdered Simon. "Sex, Drugs and Rock'n Roll" is engraved on his white coffin, which Marie-Claire ordered. But the most compelling speech comes from Freya, broken by grief over the death of her first great love. Stijn De Ridder is at another, intimate funeral, that of Del Monte Camilia. The young lawyer could not handle the break with Stijn and committed suicide. Fred is all in his new role as CEO of RIC. Karel is still not convinced of the abilities of his eldest son, but his well-intentioned advice is completely ignored. Fred tries to give Marie-Claire advice in running West Star, but it soon seems that was not a good idea.
