"Not only are you late, Colonel, but you come with the police." "You're mistaken." "Mr. Caplan is no longer a policeman." "Once a pig, always a pig." "Until he's had his throat cut." "What about you Arifa?" "Assuming you're not still on the game," "I'd expect you to accept I'm no longer a cop." "Watch it, Caplan." "Call my mother a whore once more and words will turn to action." "Got it?" "We came to do business." "If you want war..." "Thank you, Sergeant." "Madame Arifa," "Mr. Caplan is a crook like you and your sons?" "If you say so." "He will be my go-between, enchanging my gold for your money." "You'll be dealing with him." "In other words, shut your mouth and do as I say." "So, you want to do business like this, Colonel?" "Very well... very well." "But if I see a police uniform..." " You won't." "We have 350 kg of ingots to deliver." "The first delivery will be 150 kg, with payment on the spot." "If all goes smoothly we'll deliver the rest." "When you have the money, call me for instructions." "Do we understand one another?" "Infiltrated" "Very well..." "You' stay at the Empyrée." "Myriam has confirmed." "I already have places to stay." "I'm sure you do, but I don't take risks." "What do you mean?" " You're not just an ex cop." "You've been linked to the death of a police motorcyclist." "Merks killed him." " No matter." "The last place the police will look for you is at the Empyrée." "Is that a problem?" "It's just a bit awkward." "With his sister, I mean." "I understand." "But it's not like you killed her brother." "The guards transporting our gold were told the route at the last minute." "Only you knew the gold was to be delivered to your places." "Listen carefully." "In two minutes, that door will opened and he will come in." "If you don't tell me who you gave the information to, he will kill you." "Do you understand?" "He will kill you." "He'll destroy you, damnit!" "Do you understand?" "What's this?" "It was in his jacket." "Debt receipts from a gaming club in Paris." "The Empyrée, in the 15th." "Well?" " He's been gambling." "Nobody screw around with Ruben Breynaert." "No one ever rips me off." "Do you understand that, you son of a bitch?" "Did you gamble away my gold at the casino?" "And then pay off your debts with it?" "Did you?" "Tell me!" "You piece of shit!" "Get that cleared up." "I don't like dirtying rented accommodation." "Is it okay?" "Leave your clothes by the door and they'll be clean tomorrow." "Thank you." " Good night, Mr. Caplan." "How are you?" "Okay, and you?" "And how's this?" "...big explosion last night in a storage container close to Paris." "Two bodies were found in the rubble." "A criminal act has not been ruled out." "Sources close to the investigation confirmed one of the victims was famous Parisian lawyer Yannis Fahad." "His vehicle was found close to the place of the explosion." "This controversial lawyer was often presented..." "I'm going to show you a few pictures." "Here." "Ouari Boumendjel..." "Mwene Bambesi..." "And Théo Vachewski." "Mr. William, have you ever met any of these individuals?" "No." "We believe they were involved in the murder of this young woman." "I'm sorry to hear that." "But what does it have to do with me?" "The victim was renting a flat in one of your buildings." "Then I'm doubly sorry to hear that." "But what does it have to do with me?" "These two had copies of the keys." "Plus, for a few weeks now, your daughter has been having an affair with this man." "And this man had a few grievances against the victim." "He had a serious motive." "I understand." "I understand your reluctance to talk." "She is your only daughter, after all." "If word ever got out in Paris that she was an accessory to the murder of one of your tenants, can you imagine the scandal that would ensue?" "Especially because you've already had to clean up after a murder case she was involved in." "Young Fabien Mévrel." "You haven't forgotten that, have you?" "What can I do to help you?" "Sign a statement declaring that your daughter stole the keys to the flat from you, without your knowledge." "We will soon get her to admit it and turn in her accomplices." "As for you, Mr. William, your life will soon be back to normal and you can forget what has happened... assuming you're able to." "I almost admire you, Vogel." "You disgust me." "But the way you changed his mind..." "Marceau, you know something?" "Screw moralising about my methods." "We're chasing rapists and murderers." "Ten years ago, he hushed up a case in which a kid was killed." "Just to keep his daughter out of jail." "The victim's mother didn't have as much money." "So the case was dropped." " Well, that makes it twice now." "If succeeding with this case means burying the past..." "You're screwing the law, the basis of our obligation as policemen." "Is it?" "I see it more as the basis of a debate, especially when it comes to making arrests." "Aren't you coming?" " I don't think it's appropriate." "Are you staying here?" " Is that a problem?" "Not at all." "But as he was your friend, I assumed..." "I'd rather remember his face than his tombstone." "Come on, Delgado!" "Get a move on!" "Hey!" "Let's go." "Two guys killed in a storage container and you know nothing?" "Why should I?" "The container was your father's." "Is that your only defence?" " Are you for real?" "You think I'd blow up two guys in my storage container?" "I don't know." "Maybe you were working with the victims." "Last I heard, you were on sabbatical, and your dad hardly left a fortune." "I took unpaid leave to think about retraining, you idiot." "Well, you would say that." "The more I see of you the more I realise quitting is the only way I'll stay size 8." "If I showed it to you, my inner beauty would dazzle you." "Until that day, get out." "We're not done yet, Delgado." "The two of us are far from finished." "You can show yourself out." "You know the way." "Park by the Empyrée." "Leave the keys in the car and call us when you're ready." "We'll come and pick you up." "I want the old Jewish whore and her bastard sons bumped off." "I want them dead." "The priority is to get our merchandise back." "We'll take care of them afterwards." "I can't believe I'm paying twice for my own gold." "If you'd listened to me..." "Don't forget who's the boss here." "You're below me." "You're only here because you're fucking my sister and married to her." "Got it?" "Okay." "But if we kill the Jews first, how do we get the gold afterwards?" "Very well." "We'll do as you say, Hugo." "First we get the gold, then we kill the Jews." "Find the Empyrée club and see what goes on there." "Go and find the club, go on." "If I sign this, do you guarantee my daughter and I will have no more problems?" "None at all." "What about the Fabien Mévrel case?" "What case?" "What is this?" "Just something to ensure we are both agree on this." "Roland Vogel, you are under arrest." "You bitch, Valerie." "As for you, Marceau." "You two-faced little fucker...!" "Could you get coffees and the newspaper?" "I knew I'd find you here." "You must see Eddy?" "Théo, what's your problem!" "Killing two guys in my container?" "I'll get busted!" "You'll be fine." "I planned it all." "I broke the lock and used another one." "Well done, Einstein." "You think Fargette won't see through that?" "What could I do?" "The lawyer wanted to kill all three of you." "Fahad?" "The litle punk in Armani?" "Don't make me laugh." "Anyway, since when did you care about anyone else?" "Is that all you had to tell me?" " Yes." "Take care, you idiot." "What are you doing here?" "Say a word and it'll be the last noise you make." "Okay?" "The Arifas?" "Seriously?" "Where did she get the cash for all that gold?" "She's not that rich." "We need to focus on what we do know about her." "She's not to be trusted." "She'll screw us over the minute she lays hands on her last ingot." "Have you told Dantin?" " I think he suspects the same, but his mind seems to be elsewhere." "If this transaction goes smoothly, he might trust me enough to open up." "Yes, but there are no guarantees." "These guys are so unstable." "All they need is a spark." "We've go to walk on eggshells with them." "At the same time, they have 350kg of gold ingots." "I'm delivering them in two phases." "First, a 150kg batch to build trust." "When that's done and dusted, we'll be told how to proceed." "How are we going to organise it?" "Rocky has found us a car." "We need to get in touch with Dantin and his men." "Then we load up the ingots and go to exchange them." "General Févre seems to be getting more hostile and unstable by the day." "I feel that as long as I stay in line I have nothing to fear, but..." "As I've told you many times, if you don't want it to break..." "Look." "You have to lean it against another one." "One sacrifices itself for the other." "Your father was always a rock to me." "I'll be the same for you until the day I die." "Times have changed, mother." "I'm no longer a child." "lréne Bleuvenne speaking." " This is Colonel Dantin, madame." "You put me in change of a mission for your company, but increased security has made it tricky." "I gave you the tools to complete your mission." "You have to prove you have the skills to do it." "I have a candidate for our operation, but am not 100% sure I can trust him." "He's an ex cop." "I'm testing him now." "Check him out." "His name's Caplan." " Could you spell that?" "C, a, p, I, a, n." "I'll look into it, Colonel." "In future, don't disturb me for details like this." "Jean-Baptiste?" "Does the name "Caplan" ring any bells?" "He's a bent cop, escaped from prison with Gaëtan Merks." "Coincidentally they were being taken to the prison hospital the same day." "You still have contacts in the police, don't you?" "Find out about Caplan." "The key you found in Fahad's safe, Did you find out what it opens?" "A private safe." "Each bank has its own locking system." "There was also a password to open the safe: "lndependance"." "I've got an expert to find out which bank Fahad's safe was located in." "Did Théo kill Fahad and Bambesi?" " Yes." "He planned it all." "Have you been questioned?" "Fargette tried but he's so predictable..." "I don't know what to do with Théo." "Do nothing." "You're not his father or brother." "You're no longer even his boss." "Is this really necessary?" "You're nothing but a dirty whore." " What?" "What did you say?" "Nothing." ""Nothing but a dirty whore"?" "I didn't say that." "I was saying..." " "Nothing but a dirty whore"?" "Fuck!" "You have no right!" "You'll pay for this, Borg." "You should quieten down." "In case you'd forgetten, Vogel, you were caught red-handed plotting to destroy evidence." "Between you and I," "I don't think many officers will want to tarnish their reputation recording a complaint lodged by a cop as crooked as you." "Well." "Vogel." "You've become a wretched dog." "It looks like ten years in the kennels." "Given your record as a cop, you'll be a popular guy inside." "What do yo want?" " Prosecutor Vanderbeke." "We know he's covered for most of your offences and let you investigate the death of Lemoine's wife as you saw fit." "And..." "If I were also to say that Vanderbeke give the names of the suspects, including Vachewski, to Lemoine..." "What would that be worth?" "You'd avoid jail, but you'd still be struck off." "You said two men, Mr. Caplan." " What's wrong?" "Don't you like women?" "On the contrary, I like them a lot." "That's why she'll stay with us." "What are you playing at?" "I feel nervous in the presence of a servng officer." "I'm talking about Lieutenant Roxane Delgado." "Who do think made my escape possible?" "You looked shocked, arsehole." "Didn't you get the lowdown?" "Show me any more disrespect, and I will not hesitate to kill you." "Werner, look after our guest." "Keep her close." "Colonel." "Take me as a guarantee instead." "That's very gallant of you, Mr. Morlighem." "But this conversation is over." "Follow me." "Come back quickly, and with the money, Mr. Caplan." "How the hell does he know who Roxane and I are?" "Don't stress, Walter." "He just knows we were cops." "If he knew why we're really here, we'd already be dead." "Maybe they do know exactly why we're here and will kill us as soon as they no longer need us." "Hello, Adolf." " Idiot..." "Are you sulking?" "What's the matter, Mr. Christiaens?" "My brother-in-law has decided that when he has all his gold back, you and your sons must die." "Could you say that again, Mr. Christiaens?" "You understood the first time, Mrs Arifa." "My brother-in-law, Ruben Breynaert, intends to murder you and your sons and then to recover his gold." "Not only is he anti-Semitic, he is also dishonest in business." "Well?" "What will you do?" " What do you think?" "Kill him." "What's it worth?" "You're taking 50% of the gold." "What more do you want, damnit?" "100% of the gold." " What?" "When he is dead, you'll be the boss of an empire worth 100 million euros." "I think you can show a little generosity." "Okay." "It's a deal." "Where's the Partner?" "About time." " Can I see?" "Level-4, a white Peugeot Partner." "My man is already there." "Did you take that down, Daniel?" "Let me know when it's loaded up." "Good." "Load them into the boot." " Get him to do it, and quickly." "Ylane?" "Okay." "Next time cop, find somewhere else." "Have you counted it?" " It's all here." "The Colonel must trust you blindly to leave such a sum here." "This money is nothing but paper, Mr. Caplan." "It's to compensate families who need it." "I don't follow." "Colonel Dantin, Luanda and Werner are not motivated by money." "Unlike you." "The money raised selling the ingots will compensate families of soldiers who were under the Colonel's command in Angola." "And this club is just a legal front for you to pay out the money without the taxman asking the families where the money came from?" "He walked in with a bag but came out empty-handed." "Was this the man who had the case of money?" "Yes." "He went into the gaming club with in, and left without." "And that's all?" " Yes." "That's all." "So it really is our money that is being used to pay." "The same people who stole our gold." "Let's go." "This club has clients, and is in a very busy neighbourhood." "We can't just charge in there like a bull in a china shop." "Don't you understand that?" "What do you suggest?" "I have a plan." "But this time, it will need to be followed to the letter." "To the letter." "It's not what you think, Caplan." " Really?" "So what is it, then?" "Something that cures nothing but delays the inevitable." "Let's just say I have some health issues." "Where is Roxane?" "With Werner." "Everything's fine." "Colonel..." "Your friend is fine..." "If anything happens to her..." "You'll see her soon." "You have my word as an officer." "I spoke with Myriam on the phone." "Every thing happened as you said." "When do we deliver the rest." "I don't want Roxane to be held for long." "First, I want to talk to you about another job." "I'm not interested." "Give me an hour to talk you through it." "After that, you free to refuse." "Sit down." "Does Bleuvenne lndustries mean anything to you, Caplan?" "Mr. Ministre, gentlemen..." "Thanks for attending this demonstration of what our engineers have termed "lnessive"." "In linguistics, it is a case that describes location." "In terms of civil security, it is a new generation of weapon." "Inessive gives terrorists no chance." "It identifies and eliminates them." "Inessive was designed by Bleuvenne Indrustries engineers for use by special forces in tactical intervention situations." "When you arrived, each of you was asked to wear a bracelet like this one." "You must be wondering why." "Let's just say it will let you leave this room in one piece." "During this demonstration, please sit still and do not move." "And don't forget to use your ear plugs." "The bullet receives information from a chip in the bracelet." "It avoids anyone wearing the bracelet." "You therefore had nothing to fear." "Yes, what do you want?" " Théo, we have to talk." "Don't you get it?" "Live you life but leave me the fuck alone, Eddy." "They've got Roxane." "We need you." "Halo?" "Where are you?" "On my way." "Vanderbeke, you are under arrest." " "Prosecutor Vanderbeke."" "What's this about?" "Roland Vogel has been arrested for corruption and other charges." "In order to escape a jail term he sang like a canary." "It'll be his corrupt police officer's word against mine." "Indeed." "His word and yours were both recorded on a dictaphone Vogel used at your meetings." "It's over, Prosecutor." "You're in it up to here." "What?" "Bringing down officers of the law turns you on as much as it did Vogel." "You're not all that different from one another." "Hi, Théo." "What've you done to Roxane, motherfucker!" "Stop it, Théo!" "Stop it!" "Stop!" " You're a fucker!" "Stop it!" "What the fuck are you doing!" "Théo!" "Couldn't help yourself coming back and wrecking our lives, could you?" "Right." "As if you need help fucking your life up, Theo." "The only life I fuck up is my own." "Not Walter's and Roxane's as well." "Yeah, that's right, Theo." "You always did put yourself in front of everyone else." "Shall we talk now?" "Or carry on fighting?" "Go on then, Eddy." "Talk." "Where's Roxane?" "Roxane is with Dantin, but she's okay." "He promised me he'd free her today." "And as we still have a job to do for him, he'll keep his word." "I want to discuss what happenes next." "I don't care." " You don't get it." "If Dantin finds out who we are, Roxane, Eddy and I are dead." "But you're right." "You don't owe us a thing." "And you're in no danger." "Like it or not, you're the best secret weapon we have." "Dantin and co won't be expecting you." "We need you one last time." "You've moved on from the 'group'." "Fair enough." "But you need to sort out your life, just like we do." "You've infiltrated them." "Can't you call Marceau or Févre?" "Marceau can't help, and as for Févre..." "There's a difference between cholera and plaque." "He's both at once." "Well, Theo." "Make your mind up." "On your own, or with us?" "Go on then, spit it out." "Dantin wants us to steal a weapon, Inessive." "Why he wants it, I don't know." "When we have it, we'll have them right where we want them." "What's the plan, then." "With Vogel and Vanderbeke arrested, you'll probably be promoted." "That's kind, but I'd like to go back to doing real police work." "And you think a promotion would take you away from real police work?" "I gave you Vanderbeke's head." "Let me resume control of Caplan's mission." "That's in Févre hands, and I think it's almost done and dusted." "What do you mean?" " Thanks to an electronic bug." "Févre will soon know where the Invisibles are hiding." "When he knows, he'll send in a team to clean everything up." "Call Interior Intelligence now." "Tell them I am back on this case." "If anything has happened to Caplan or his team," "I'll call the press immediately and you'll be finished." "Give that to me." "Give that to me." "Who is it?" "Gabriel, obviously." "Who are you?" "Put my girlfirend on the phone." "Turn round." "Shit..." "Turn round." "Fuck off, why don't you?" "What's going on?" "We've got them, General." "The bug's been activated." "There we go." "In less than an hour, my men will be in position." "After their visit, there will be nothing to do but collect the bodies."
