Events of Criminal Case
Murder à la Mode
After arresting Sébastien Lefebvre's killer, Flamme editor Martine Meunier asked Carrie and the player to recover Juliette's tablet. After finding the tablet, they sent it to Émile to trace any criminal activity. Émile discovered that Juliette had voice chats logged with Eleonora. After they gave the unlocked tablet to Martine and learning from her where Eleonora hung out, Carrie and the player spoke to Eleonora about her connection to Juliette. She revealed that she had met Juliette at a Flamme issue launch party and that they had hung out ever since. However, she was shocked to hear that she had gone to prison for murder, claiming that she had had no indication of what Juliette was planning. She then promised the team that she had different views to her father, unsure as to how anybody could think that murder would solve any problems. She then excused herself to meet a friend for dinner.
Party Like It's 1699
Eleonora became a suspect after Carrie and the player found her invitation to the party. Surprised to see them, Eleonora said that they could have dressed more appropriately for the party, prompting Carrie to inform Eleonora about the murder. She appeared shocked to learn of Marguerite's murder and said that the murder was bringing back memories of what had happened to some of her father's business partners. When asked if she had seen anything, Eleonora said that she had been having too much fun at the party.
Eleonora was spoken to again about the unfriendly commemorative plate that she had given to Marguerite. She revealed that her father had been sending her to Marguerite for etiquette lessons since she was ten. Eleonora claimed that Marguerite was prejudiced against her as she constantly mocked her for her "common" origins. Even though Eleonora was unbothered by her origins, Marguerite still loved to humiliate her.
Eleonora was found to be innocent after the team incarcerated Louis d'Anjou for Marguerite's murder. Later, Hugo and the player searched the party for information on Eleonora. They found a newspaper article which revealed that Eleonora was at the dress rehearsal for the upcoming Chior fashion show. Émile hacked into the security camera footage at the event and discovered Eleonora talking to a man called Charlie Jones that largely resembled Carrie's missing brother, Cody James. After Carrie confirmed that the man in the footage was her brother, Carrie and the player confronted Eleonora, who appeared shocked when they told her that Charlie Jones was, in fact, Carrie's brother. Eleonora claimed that she did not have Charlie's contact details and swiftly left for a hairdressing appointment.
The Show Must Go On
Eleonora became a suspect again after High Commissioner Delacroix and the player found the champagne bottle she had gifted to Sabine. Upon being told about the murder, Eleonora commiserated Sabine's death and revealed that she had seen Sabine perform for the first time the night prior. While she did not know her, she sent her the champagne with a note asking if she wanted to hang out.
Eleonora was spoken to again about her being angry with Sabine after Émile found an image of her in the crowd staring daggers at Sabine. She revealed that one of Sabine's acts involved her dressing up as Eleonora's father and portraying him as a bumbling idiot. Furious, she tried to confront Sabine backstage, but was stopped by security. After recovering at the bar, she decided to send Sabine the champagne bottle so that she could confront her in person. However, Sabine never responded to the invitation.
Eleonora was found to be innocent again after the team incarcerated Jacques Lelarge for Sabine's murder. Later, Eleonora came to the station to offer an explanation to Carrie and the player as to why she had lied about knowing Cody. She revealed that after the team interrogated her father about Cody, he decided to have him followed, causing Cody to go into hiding. Eleonora then told the team that she wanted to surprise Cody by having them all hang out together. However, Cody needed a disguise in order to attend the Popotin Rouge show. After finding some liquid latex, Carrie and the player sent it to Nadia, who fashioned a mask for Cody to wear. Later, Eleonora, Carrie and the player surprised Cody and watched the Popotin Rouge's Spectaculaire Spectaculaire.
