Pünktlich zur EM reisen Jogis Eleven nach Paris! Calli liebt das französische Lebensgefühl ("Freiheit, Mahlzeit, Frittierbarkeit"), Jogi bindet seinen "Schal de Gaulle", Lothar Matthäus versucht, Jeanne d'Arc bei Tinder zu matchen, und Konfliktexperte Jérôme Boateng zeigt, wie man mit den Pariser Vorstadtjungs ziemlich beste Freunde wird.
