After an almost two-year wait, “Emily in Paris” has finally returned to Netflix.
The first half of season four premiered on the streaming site on August 15, with the rest of the episodes dropping on September 12.
The series, created by “Sex and the City” creator Darren Star, follows a young American woman (Lily Collins) who gets a job in the French capital managing the social media campaigns of luxury fashion and lifestyle brands.
As audiences have seen since the show’s outset, Emily has made a number of cultural faux pas in her love life and career since moving to Paris, and that was no different in season three.
Emily found herself torn between two jobs and two love interests. At the beginning of season three, Emily was presented with the choice between staying at her company, Savoir, with her American boss, Madeline (Kate Walsh), or joining Sylvie (Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu) at her newly created firm, Agence Grateau.
She didn’t end up choosing either and instead secretly worked for both companies for a while — until she lost both jobs. She quit Savoir after being asked to move back to the US, and Sylvie fired her when she discovered Emily hadn’t fully committed to her new venture. It all worked out in the end, though, as Sylvie rehired Emily by the end of the season.
Emily similarly found herself stuck between two choices in her dating life; she dated Brit Alfie (Lucien Laviscount) on and off for most of season three but still held a candle for neighbor Gabriel (Lucas Bravo). However, at the end of the season, she found herself single.
Alfie ended their relationship because he didn’t want to be Emily’s second choice. While her path to finally being with Gabriel seemed clear, he revealed in the season finale that he and Camille (Camille Razat), although broken up, were going to have a baby together.
Season three saw Gabriel achieve one of his biggest dreams — he opened his restaurant, L’Esprit de Gigi, after making a deal with Antoine (William Abadie) and Alfie. What’s more, the restaurant was on its way to earning a Michelin star, thanks to Emily’s coworker Luc (Bruno Gouery), who brought a Michelin inspector named Marianne (Laurence Gormezano) to the restaurant.
However, throughout the season, Gabriel found himself questioning his other dreams, namely getting married and having kids with Camille. To complicate matters, he drunkenly confessed to Emily that he loves both her and Camille.
After Gabriel learned that Camille was pregnant, he appeared to bury his feelings for Emily. He and Camille got engaged and threw an engagement party at Camille’s parents’ countryside estate that turned into an impromptu wedding. But instead of saying “I do” at the altar, Camille told Gabriel that she couldn’t marry him as she knew he still had feelings for Emily.
Amid Gabriel’s busy work schedule, Camille grew close to Sofia (Melia Kreiling), an artist client. The two had an affair, which Emily discovered after accidentally walking in on them kissing at Alfie’s leaving party. Camille and Sofia took a trip to Greece together, but Camille broke things off and returned home after discovering she was pregnant.
In a moment of spontaneity, she proposed to Gabriel before he had a chance to do it himself but opted not to tell him about her affair. At the end of the season, while Camille and Gabriel were not married, it was left unclear what they planned to do about the pregnancy.
In season three, Mindy Chen (Ashley Park) managed to make the move from busking on the streets to a regular gig singing in a jazz club. Her boyfriend and bandmate Benoît (Kevin Dias) was more than supportive of this, even though it meant they wouldn’t be performing together anymore.
However, his support began to sour after Mindy ran into Nicolas (Paul Forman), an old boarding school friend who entered the picture when his father’s company, JVMA, acquired Pierre Cadault’s (Jean-Christophe Bouvet) fashion house. Benoît’s jealousy and insecurity caused his and Mindy’s relationship to eventually fizzle out, and by the end of the season, Mindy had started dating Nicolas.
Naturally, as the son of a billionaire businessman, Nicolas arranged for him and Mindy to arrive by helicopter at Camille and Gabriel’s engagement party-turned-wedding in the season three finale.
While Sylvie managed to convince Luc and Julien (Samuel Arnold) to leave Savoir for her new firm, she struggled with the logistics of starting afresh with no office space and no clients. However, by the end of the season, Agence Grateau had moved out of Sylvie’s apartment and begun to build a new client list, including the French label Ami.
Elsewhere, Sylvie continued to date her boyfriend, Erik (Søren Bregendal), while remaining estranged from her husband, Laurent (Arnaud Binard). However, in a surprise twist, Sylvie and Laurent began having an affair, which prompted Erik to call things off.
While Sylvie appeared content with giving her marriage another go, she questioned her decision after Laurent told her he was opening a new club with Louis de Léon (Pierre Deny), someone Sylvie would rather avoid due to how their paths crossed in the past.
