What is the difference between "jeudi prochain" and "le jeudi d'arpès»? Would it be correct to explain that "jeudi prochain" is the next Thursday, i.e. from today, while "jeudi d'après" is "the following Thursday" regardless the time reference point (i.e. it could be the next Thursday from the event that had taken place a year ago) ?

La Saint-Valentin VideoBonjour! I just watched the St. Valentine's video posted on the web site. Very funny! In the transcript below the video it says "elle cligne des yeux" and "je cligne des yeux". Shouldn't the article "les" be used instead? Listening to the video, I'm not sure if he says des or les. Merci!
