A series of madcap mishaps involving theft or injury (as you would expect in his line of work) ensues after Michel promises Isabelle nothing will delay their marriage and she promises in turn that she's done flying.

Before his own child is born, Martin clearly has some growing up of his own to do.

Other patients use the treatment with similar successes, and Valois's happy about it.
