Dans l'appartement au-dessus de chez eux emménage Nicole qui sort d'une relation très difficile avec Klaus. Jean l'attire dans ses bras mais tombe profondément amoureux d'elle. Elle le prévient néanmoins que Klaus cherche à le tuer, à la demande d'un inconnu. Après un échec sur la Riviera, Klaus fait venir Jean dans l'appartement de Nicole et au cours d'une lutte, finit par le poignarder. Il n'a fait qu'exécuter la demande des deux femmes, complices. Le meurtre est maquillé en incendie de la voiture de Jean, dans laquelle la police ne retrouve donc qu'un corps carbonisé. Cependant, Danielle éprouve visions et remords de la disparition de son mari, et finit par être persuadée que Jean n'est pas mort et est complice de Nicole. Alors qu'elle est au téléphone, elle sent sa présence dans l'appartement et meurt d'un coup de feu en prononçant son nom.
