Before tackling today's art lesson, Sandra and Marie talk about the children's Saturday afternoon class. The kids learned about the trees and plants of Paris and the lesson was a great success!

Marie and Sandra decide to experiment with plein air painting, but first Marie must decide on a Paris location as a subject to paint. Which will she pick?

Sara's hands are a bit dirty. That's because she's been doing some painting around her place. She enjoys decorating her apartment when she finds the time.

Sandra has to end her painting lessons with Marie because she has to go back to Switzerland. But the ladies have developed a great friendship and are planning to see each other again.

Lionel has a terrible toothache and all the dentists are on vacation. Fortunately, he has a great trick for relieving the pain that he shares with Sara. Find out what it is!

September is a special time in France called la rentrée, when students and workers get back into the swing of things and possibly the dreariness of the work and study routine. Alexandre dreads this time of year while Sophie embraces it as an opportunity for starting afresh.

Sara needs to pack her bag as she is going on holiday soon, but she is just not in the mood. What a chore! Lionel does his best to motivate her...

Lionel and Sara reflect on how the traditional two-day Fête de l'Humanité (Humanity Festival) has changed over the years. Originally organized by the Communist newspaper L'Humanité, the festival is an occasion for the various factions of the French left to put aside their differences and come together.
