Assane and Adele find the treasure in season 4, episode 7 of Netflix's Lupin.

The episode opens with Adele and Assane standing outside the Guardians' fortress. It's where the stone and the crown led them. But they have to move fast because the batteries in the crown projector they installed at Guillaume's house won't last much longer.

Elsewhere, Claire escorts Raoul to the airport. He's decided to take the trip to Dakar himself. He says he can't wait around for his dad anymore. In his eyes, Assane only really cares about himself.

Back at the shop, Assane, Adele, and Juliette prepare to infiltrate the Guardians' fortress. They need a way to get past the facial recognition scanners. But Juliette has a confession. Years ago, she told Assane that the treasure wasn't real, but that was a lie. She says she did it to protect him from her father. The good thing is that means they can use the tunnels to get inside the fortress.

Meanwhile, Guedira and Sofia have lunch and discuss the footprint they found at the crime scene. It matches a pair of shoes stolen a few weeks ago. Thankfully, Guedira has the name of an expert they can speak with to get more information.

At the same time, Adele and Assane put their plan into motion. They force their way into the police station dressed as lab technicians. Once inside, they get Juliette to draw the police commissioner out, while they sneak into her office. Adele and Assane put up an LED cloak to mask their presence, while they use a hole in the floor to access the tunnels.

Meanwhile, Guillaume discovers the crown is a fake and calls the police commissioner. They realize Lupin is playing games and rush back to the police station.

Underground, Assane and Adele finally find the treasure, but the police are right on their heels. When they arrive, Assane uses a series of explosions to cover their escape. While the police navigate the chaos, the two cover their faces, put the word "police" on their backs, and find their way back outside.

There, they meet up with Juliette but realize Adele has a wound that needs immediate medical attention. Assane takes her back to Claire's house so she can administer first aid. Claire is hesitant at first but steps up when she sees how hopeless Assane is.

She later accuses Assane of living a double life. But he assures her he never knew about Adele. He wanted to tell her, but nothing went right. Their conversation is interrupted by a knock at the door. The person claims to be a police officer, but he's really working for the Guardians. Claire and Ben try to distract him, while Assane, Adele, and Juliette hide.

Meanwhile, Guedira and Belkacem finally track down their shoe expert and get him to reveal the location of the surveillance footage.

Raoul cries out for help

Back at Claire's house, everyone sits down to have a drink. The mood is light until Claire confesses she's the reason Juliette's father found out about her and Assane. Pellegrini promised her she'd get her boyfriend back after he broke Juliette and Assane up.

Assane assures her that Pellegrini would have found out anyway and says she's not to blame. Juliette agrees. She says her family is the one to blame, not Claire. Assane brings up Ben's nickname for Claire, and everyone laughs at how silly it is. Once the laughter dies down, he thanks Ben for his help. Ben says that's what friendship is all about. But Assane says they're more than that. They're family.

But someone's missing. Assane asks about Raoul, and Claire tells him that their son left for Dakar that morning.

At the same time, Belkacem finally sees the face of the person who attacked her on the surveillance footage.

Cut back to Claire's house. Raoul shows up in front of his mother's house, where Assane is in the process of recording a voicemail for him. Assane asks why he's not in Dakar, and Raoul says he needs to tell him something.

He reveals that he was the one who almost pushed Belcakem to her death during the museum heist. He thought she was going to shoot Assane. He apologizes, and Assane brings him in for a hug and reassures his son that everything will be ok.
