"SERIES CREATED BY ALEXANDRA CLERT" "I need to crash here for a couple of days" "That's OK." "My dad's in hospital." "What's wrong?" "The cops have got Marouane and the dough" "That bastard will talk" "Marouane isn't a snitch." "He'll keep quiet." "OK?" "The police will find him." "He has to go" "What do you need?" "Cash?" "A phone?" " Can you get me one?" " Of course." "Are you hungry?" "Yeah, cheers" " You can go fuck yourself" " OK." "I will" "Are you mad?" "Why didn't you kick him out?" "If he's in the shit, we can use him" "What about the dead ATM maintenance guy?" "No comment" "And did those 350,000 euros we found just land in your lap?" " No comment" " OK" "So you're taking the rap for the money and the dead ATM guy?" "No comment" "Copy, paste..." "What a great interview!" "Look, Marouane." "You're a big boy" "Let's not waste time" "We're sending you straight to the judge" "Anything to add?" "Is that it?" "I barely know what you're charging my client with" "Then he should talk." "I'm not going to waste my time talking to a wall" "He has a right to silence" "And I've a right to end our interview." "Annoying, isn't it?" "What do you charge for 20 minutes?" "30 euros?" "Here." "Read this through and sign it" "Wait." "Don't you want something to eat?" "What?" "The judge won't give you any food." "If you're hungry, eat now" "Get him a sandwich, JP" "Go on." "Sit down" "We're not monsters" "You might be a robber, Marouane." "But you're not a child killer" "What?" " You're not a child killer" " What is this shit?" " Are you pinning a murder on me?" " No, two" "A mother and daughter." "This was them before..." "This is them, afterwards" "Look" "Do they look familiar?" "You know them" "Sandrine and Lucie Jaulin" "I've never heard of them" "Look, Marouane" "Don't be an idiot" "We know Sandrine worked for you and Zach" "And we know she found you a hideout in Asniéres" "She got you phones... and even girls to lure in the men" "We know it all." "So go on, spit it out" "Marouane, look at me" "This is off the record." "We won't film this" "There, it's stopped" "We just want to know why they were killed... why a child was thrown into a canal while still alive" "Did Zach throw them in?" "This stays between us" "Here's my sandwich" "Here" "No comment" "If we don't have them both, what's the point?" "Marouane won't talk, and the other guy will be long gone" "We traced the card that paid for their hotel room it belongs to Samuel Bensimon" "He has no record, but Tintin found him online" "He works at the Bar de la Place in Montreuil" "We'll watch him." "Zach's skint." "He'll be up to something soon" "He's not that stupid." "He won't contact Bensimon directly" "People do stupid things when they're desperate" "People do stupid things when they're hormonal" "Why didn't you tell me?" "Why hide your pregnancy from me?" "I didn't know if I was going to keep it" "And now?" "OK." "You're keeping it" "You'd better nail this case before I put you in a desk job" "Come in" "Our colleagues in Clamart have an issue" " What is it?" " Djibril" "Hi How are you?" "Mérini was caught behind the wheel of a stolen car" "He wouldn't explain" "He just said he was your grass... then gave us Escoffier's mobile number" "Look, we're getting sick of nicking druggies and car thieves... then having to let them go because they're informants" "Sorry, but Mérini is helping us with a big case if your lads could let him off we'd appreciate it" "Pull the other one." "You lot never return the favour" "That depends on the favour" "Your case had better be worth it" "First on the left" "Thank you" "Hi" "Thanks." "You did a great job in there" "I'll treat you to a fancy meal" "Next time, don't expect us to come running." "Do you understand?" "How was I to know?" "I was taking a car to some guys who were planning a job" "Then, they were caught and I got stuck with it" "What job?" "Why didn't you tell us?" " I've got to eat, haven't I?" " Of course you do" "Go on." "Hop it" "How do I get home?" "You can't leave me..." "Wait." "What was this job?" "It was just a job..." "Look." "We just got you out of deep shit" "Do you want to go back?" "A lorry full of printer cartridges." "They retail for 22 euros each" "A container holds 30,000 of them" "Where's it setting off from?" " Where's the lorry?" " Transgarden, Bobigny" "We'll drop you off" "So Djibril tells Bensimon about the cartridges..." "Bensimon calls Zach, they rob the lorry and we nab them" "Simple" "Why would Djibril risk it?" "Because there's money in it" "Besides, he likes me." "Need I say more?" "He likes you?" "That doesn't count for anything" "I think it'll work" "But don't tell anyone... not even Herville" "Any objections?" "No, it's a great idea." "Call Djibril" "Hey, about the baby..." "What about it?" "Like I said, if you need me to take you for a scan... or buy a pram... or a crib, or something..." "Well, you know where I am" "Come in" " You wanted to see me?" " I'm just shopping for my daughter" " How old is she?" " Six." "She's with her father in Lyon" "But I didn't ask you here to talk about my family" "I want your opinion on a difficult case" "Difficult?" "Two Filipino servants have pressed charges" "A brother and sister allege their employer mistreated them" "The sister was beaten over the head with an iron" "Their statements are very detailed" "What's the problem?" "Their employer, Tarek Ziani, is a powerful Libyan businessman" "He was close to Gaddafi, then defected" "His French wife runs a gallery in the 6th arrondissement" "I asked local police in Neuilly to help search Ziani's mansion... but their superiors won't allow it" "So this is the sensitive case you're diving headlong into?" "Did Machard say that?" "What can I do to help?" "I'll help you with the Jaulin case... if you can help me to get this case moving" "I'm touched by your faith in me" "May I suggest a couple of things?" "Don't take this the wrong way" "Your letter of request mentions Ziani's name... and the address of his mansion" "You should word it in a much more general way" "Also, when you decide to visit... a problematic individual... you'll need reliable officers to help with the search" "Who are you suggesting?" "Chief Inspector Berthaud, for example" "This search is judicially sound... and technically feasible... but be aware that if you take on Mr Ziani... you should expect a backlash" "Think hard before you commit yourself" "Christophe, send out the request, please" "Yes" "Hello" " What can I get you?" " Half a lager, please" "Excuse me, mate." "Are you Samuel?" "Why?" " Do you know Marouane?" " Marouane, who?" " Benamar" " Yeah" "Did you hear?" "He was caught by the fuzz" "Why are you saying this?" "Who are you?" "We were on a job, but he messed up" "I'm in trouble." "I'm on my own" "So if you know anyone who could help..." "Forget it." "What do I owe you?" "What's the job?" "A container full of printer cartridges" "Where from?" "From the factory 500 grand's worth..." "Why didn't Marouane tell me?" "Well, now you know" "And the buyer?" "I know a guy who sells to the Chinese in Belleville" "Do you have a phone number?" "Looks like he's hooked Bensimon" "What did I tell you?" "No, madam." "It's a criminal investigation" "I need to know... why social services revoked the Delormes' license" "OK." "How do I get hold of the file?" "Thank you." "Goodbye" "I can't tell you over the phone..." "The Delormes were a foster family from 1994 to 2006... but their license was revoked eight years ago" "Pierre tried to find out why, but couldn't" "How is this linked to the murders?" "I don't know." "But something must be up" "I've never trusted them." "I'll go and check out their file" "Should I come, too?" "No." "Roban needs you for a search" " What search?" " I don't know." "He didn't say" "Coming, Tom?" "You can manage without me" "Yeah" "What a place!" "Someone has friends in high places..." "Hello" "I hope you've a good reason for coming here" "Mr Ziani, I'm Judge Carole Mendy" "This is Judge Francois Roban." "Hello" "This is Agnès, my wife." "What's this about?" " We're carrying out a search" " A search?" "Why?" " Regarding what?" " I think you know why" "Let's start in the office" "I hope you realise what you're about to do" "Look for any documents relating to staff - contracts, payslips... and an iron" "Madam, would you accompany these gentlemen?" "Ziani..." "I saw him test out Djibril's Lamborghini" " You're sure?" " Certain" "Sorry, but a grass who's friends with a Libyan billionaire..." "You can see why I'm suspicious" "We found two, Your Honour" "Bag them up" "What splendid marble!" "It's just so..." "Lovely taps, too" "Well... so far, there's nothing to support your employees' claims... that they slept in a cupboard, on a mattress on the floor" "Your Honour, I understand" "Your colleague is just a novice, brainwashed by the association... representing my employees" "But you can see for yourself that this whole business is absurd" " May I see the kitchen?" " Certainly" " Go ahead" " Thanks" "OK" "And this?" "It's a cupboard." "We haven't used it for years" " Inspector, can you open this?" " Of course" "This fits in with what was outlined in the file" "Can you take photos, please?" "The officers will read you your rights... and then Judge Mendy and I will see you later" "Goodbye, Mr Ziani" " So, what's the time?" " 12:55" "As of 12:55, you're under arrest... for unreported employment and grievous bodily harm" "You've the right to see a lawyer and a doctor" "This way, please" "Thanks" "45 minutes!" "I could have killed them" "Look" "What's this?" "A teenager pressed charges against the Delormes" "She accused the father of touching her, then later retracted it" " When?" " 2006" "The year they lost their license" "Call Nico." "Let's look into this girl" "Nico, it's Tom." "Can you check a name for me?" "Karen Hoarau" "H, O, A, R, A, U" "Yeah" "She has a record?" "She was found guilty of arson, aged 17" "Set fire to a letterbox with a friend..." "Laetitia Ribeiro" "Eight people died in the fire." "Karen got out six months ago" " ls there an address?" " What's the address?" "She lives with her dad in Bobigny" " Any photos?" " Nico, send me the file" "Yeah, to my phone" "That's her" " Shall we go?" " Yeah" " Well?" " I'll take it" "Excellent" "Follow me" "That will be 3,967 Euros, please" " Have a wonderful day." "See you soon" " Goodbye" "Bye" "Shut up" "Let go" "Shut up" "Shut your mouth." "OK?" " She's minted" " Go on." "Get her rings" "And stay there." "Stupid bitch" "Hey, girls" "I nearly had to cut her finger off." "She wouldn't let it go" "Get rid of it, it's ugly" "What?" "Boys always respect you if you've a wedding ring on." "Look" "Who gives a shit?" "Sell it" " Look" " No, it's nasty" " What's going on?" " Police" "Get out of here" "Karen Hoarau?" "Chief Inspector Berthaud" "We'd like to ask you about your former foster family, the Delormes" "I don't want to hear about those bastards it won't take long." "Come on" "OK" "At what age were you sent to the Delormes?" "14 years old" "Your parents were still around, though" "What were the Delormes like?" "I was there for less than a year" "Anything out of the ordinary?" "How did they treat you?" "The brother was a pain." "He was weird." "He never washed" "I got your file from social services" "I read your complaint, too" "Didn't you see?" "I took it back" "I'm not here to judge you, Karen" "This is just between us" "I'm not writing it down" "But I've got nothing else to say" "So, nothing happened?" "Ever?" "Delorme never did anything inappropriate?" "It wasn't me" "Not you?" "What wasn't you?" "It was Sandrine" "She's the one he touched" "Me and Sandrine shared a room" "I pretended to be asleep, but I saw everything" "I heard him breathing." "Disgusting pig" "Did you tell anyone before you went to the police?" "Sandrine" "She begged me not to tell" "But I couldn't take it anymore" "I wanted that bastard locked up for what he did" "So, I told them he did it to me, to protect Sandrine" "Did she make you retract your complaint?" "Not just her." "All of them" "The mum, the dad..." "Bunch of freaks." "I couldn't wait to see the back of them" "And after that, there was the letterbox fire" "That's my business" "I've paid my dues." "Now, I want to forget it" "I'll be back in a minute" "But Karen Hoarau has a record." "And she retracted her statement" "She's hardly reliable" "Your Honour... if Sandrine was touched up by her father, that changes everything" "Even if the Delormes are linked to the crimes... they can't be detained on the basis of one dubious account" "In any case, the limitation period has lapsed" "I know." "But there must be a link" "They've lied from the start" "They hid their schizophrenic son, they hounded Jaulin..." "And the dad fiddled with his daughter" "Very well" "Bring in Delorme on another pretext." "Keep me in the loop" "Thanks Your Honour Goodbye, Laure" "Joséphine, how are you?" "Holding up" "I can postpone the interrogation if you like" "What interrogation?" "Didn't you know?" "About what?" "You're representing Tarek Ziani during his first interrogation" "Tarek Ziani?" "How does he know who I am?" "Ziani asked Edelman to represent him" "He must have recommended you" " Do you have a problem with Edelman?" " Not at all" "But I'm about to tell the Chairman I'm leaving the Bar" "No, Joséphine... listen to me" "I can't bear it that Pierre's dead" "I can't sleep." "I see his face wherever I go" "But that's no reason to give up" "What will you do?" "I don't know" "You'll always find reasons to give in" "Life has its ups and downs." "You must take the rough with the smooth" "In the meantime, do what you can" "So, defend Ziani, or whomever you wish" "Do it for yourself, or for a distraction, but do it" "We work for our own benefit, too" "The first hearing is at 5:00pm." "Be there" "Hey, that's Djibril's bird" " Maybe he's been nicked" " I'll go" "Are you OK?" "I was waiting for you" " What do you want?" " To apologise about the other night" "What for?" "And to say thank you... even though I paid the price for it when I got home he's out of his mind" "Did he do that?" "Yeah" " I'll talk to him" " No" "I just want to press charges" "He's on parole." "If you press charges he'll go inside" "I know" "Well..." "Why are you telling me?" "I work with him" " Will you tell him?" " No, of course not if I did, he'd hit you again" "I'll have a think about it and let you know" " I'd better go" " Yeah" "Thanks, anyway" "This is unbelievable." "Whatever next?" "First the car, then Ziani, then he wallops his girlfriend..." "If Cindy presses charges, Djibril goes to prison... and we lose Zach, who is our only chance to close this case" "Sorry, but we've already lost Zach if he'd gone for the cartridges we'd know... wouldn't we?" "Let's hold onto Djibril in case Zach turns up." "OK?" " But then, we drop him" " Fucking hell" "What about Cindy?" "I'll think of something" "Hello." "I'm Ms Karlsson" "Edelman spoke highly of you" "He says you specialise in things like this... and you're on good terms with that arrogant judge" "Well, I wouldn't count your chickens." "There are two judges, remember" "I'm the victim of a political conspiracy" "I supported the revolution in my country" "I've always been loyal to France" "And now, I'm protecting your nation's interests as Libya is rebuilt" " Did you hear what I said?" " Perfectly" "What do you think?" "That it's irrelevant to your case" "This is about an employer accused of beating his staff with an iron" "What do you take me for, some sort of lowlife thug?" "I can get a lowlife thug out of prison" "But if you feel that doesn't match your standing... we can go with your little story" "The judges will have a good laugh, and you can sleep in a cell tonight" "Is this how you treat clients?" "If you don't like it..." "There are plenty of other lawyers who will happily defend you" " And you?" " Me?" "I couldn't give a shit" "Mr Ziani, I'm investigating you... for using a weapon to inflict grievous bodily harm... and causing incapacity, as well as for unregistered employment" "Given the risk you'll abscond and the pressure on the witnesses..." "I plan to detain you" "You may speak freely, or remain silent, if you prefer" "My client will remain silent, Your Honour" "But allow me to express my surprise" "Please, be my guest" "When we look at the, file what do we see?" "A common assault case... where it's my client's word against the claimants'" "Allegations like this usually reach a preliminary investigation... then, the accused are almost always released... especially if, like my client, they've a clean record" "You will concede that, while the allegations maybe commonplace... your client is anything but" "You can say that again I" "Look at the treatment he's received... not one, but two prestigious judges on the case... a raid on his home... and now the threat of detention" "Why not skip the trial, while we're at it?" "You may as well sentence him now" "You're digressing" "How do I know your client won't use his many resources... to evade justice?" "You think he'll try to run away if you let him leave?" "Mr Ziani has a lot to lose if he doesn't appear in court" "Why confirm his guilt by absconding?" "He's here to prove his innocence" "What's more, his business is in France... his wife is French... and with judicial supervision, you can make sure he appears in court" "This investigation is shaky enough... but to detain him would surely be nothing short of abuse" "Very well" "Would you be kind enough to leave us for a moment?" "Come with me" "Let Ziani go" "Are you serious?" "He has a palace in Libya" "He's filthy rich..." "Set bail accordingly and confiscate his passport" "We'll use judicial supervision" "Are you going to let him go because his lawyer says so?" "She's right" "These aren't the right conditions to detain him" "She'll get him out... and you'll be on the back foot for the rest of the investigation" "We agreed to put him away" "Sadly lawyers are more than just window-dressing" "We're allowed to listen to them and let them convince us..." "Especially when they're right" "That's why I love French women." "You're fiery" "My driver is outside" "Yes, and so are the press" "Wearing Saint Laurent and getting into a Bentley..." "They'll be out for blood" "Take a taxi from the other exit" "I was planning on firing Edelman, but you've changed my mind" "I want you to look after me" "Come with me" " No, just your husband" " What's going on?" "Nothing." "I just want to interview him alone" "You can wait here" "When Sandrine was little... how did she get on at school?" " She got on well" " Really?" "No trouble with her teachers or her friends?" "No." "Nothing" "As a teenager, did she go through any rough patches?" "Did she ever run away?" "No." "No" "OK" "And boys?" "Did she have a boyfriend?" "Were there many of them?" "I didn't know about those things Really?" "What did you know about her?" "Wasn't she your daughter?" "So, were you close to her?" "Or was there conflict between you?" "Come on." "Give us a clue" "We weren't close, but..." "I never asked about boys" "Sandrine was only 17... when she had Lucie" "That's quite a young age to get pregnant." "How did you react?" "I don't know" " He doesn't know" " You don't know much, do you?" "Have you forgotten?" "We've talked about your daughter for 10 minutes now" "Any thoughts...?" "Can you see what we're getting at?" "Not even a hunch?" "No?" "I didn't do anything" "Look at me" "Look at me" "A witness told us what you did to Sandrine every night in her bed" "That's not true" "I didn't do anything" "And Lucie was your child" "Sandrine threatened to tell all... so you killed them... both of them" "Didn't you?" "Didn't you?" "I didn't do anything" " He's fucking lying" " Maybe, but he won't say a thing" "No "maybe" about it." "He's clammed up completely" " That's a sure sign of guilt" " Yeah" "But we're on thin ice" "We're asking leading questions." "This won't stand up in court" "Let me try one last thing" " What's going on?" " We've finished." "You can go" "And where is my husband?" "We're taking him into custody." "Call a lawyer" "I'm not leaving here without an explanation" "Your husband admitted touching up your daughter when she was 15" "That's in the past" "In the past?" "He touched up your daughter and that's all you can say?" "You should stop harassing us and start looking for the killer" "The things your daughter endured..." "What about us?" "What about what we've endured?" "A schizophrenic son, our daughter and granddaughter murdered... our lives plastered all over the press..." "Leave us alone." "Give Léo back and leave us alone" "We'll need a statement from you." "Follow me" "Joséphine." "How nice to see you again" "This way" "Well done for getting him judicial supervision." "Ziani's over the moon" "You'll have your own statue in Tripoli" "You really owe me one" "No one else would have given you a chance" "You should be thanking me" "Without me, Ziani would have fired you" "Don't pout." "I was only teasing" "Of course, I'm grateful to you" "Here's to you, Joséphine... to your success" "The cheque..." "What's your hourly rate?" "300" "If we charged that, Ziani would think we took him for a gypsy" "We'll charge him 450... plus a surcharge for keeping him out of prison" "Thank you" "Why don't you come and work here?" "Excuse me?" "You could work on your own cases... and on Ziani's case, with our team" "He wants you." "You can't refuse" "I don't know." "I wasn't planning..." "What's stopping you?" "I'll give it some thought" "As you wish" "In any case, I need you... and I don't wish to presume, but I suspect you need me, too" "Can I have a drag?" "We told Delorme what his wife said, he admitted to touching his daughter" "But he denies being Lucie's father" "I asked Roban for a DNA test" "I hope it's enough to stop them getting Léo" "What kind of mum will I be?" "You just have to love your kid, that's all" "Can you do that?" "Hang on" "it's Djibril" "Zach has taken the bait" "Well?" "Bensimon came to the bar" "He said his mate was interested" "Then he called him, in front of me" "Was it Zach?" "I don't know." "But he was pretty keen" "He wanted to do it quickly... because he was skint" "Just one little thing" "Bensimon wants to meet the buyer" "Shit" "What's the problem?" "I can be the buyer" " Are you sure?" " It's not like I'm doing the robbery" " What do you think?" " Sounds good to me" "We just have to set a date, a price... and do some mark et research in Belleville" "Then, we're good" "OK." "Call Bensimon" "Meet him tomorrow at the Pacha" " The Pacha?" " Yeah" " OK." "Bye" " Bye" "We can't let him go to prison, now" "Your case will be sent to the Prosecutor it could take a while" "Thank you" "Give me a second" "So, that's it" " I'll get going" " OK" "I'll keep an eye on it" "OK." "Thanks" "Chief Inspector" "Judge Mendy will be joining us on this case" "Hello" "Marianne is away, so we have Jean-Luc" "I've just got the results from the haematology specialist... regarding the Delorme family" "He made a preliminary blood group comparison... and the good news is that Delorme is not Lucie's father" "The bad news is, neither is Jaulin" "When the Delormes' license was revoked... they sent Sandrine to boarding school" "The school was in Bezons, Val-d'Oise" "She could have met the father there" "After all, it matches the date that she got pregnant" "Zacharie Gabbaï was at the same school in Bezons" "Really?" "Yes" "I'll ask for a DNA comparison" "Jean-Luc" "Jean-Luc, I want Zacharie Gabbaï's DNA compared with the Jaulin girl's" "Thanks" "What do you want?" "Have you thought about getting a new lawyer?" "I'd still have one if you had listened to me" "Won't you sit down?" "Listen" "I think there's a way to get your son back" "New information has come to light about Sandrine's father" "The limitation period has lapsed... but a good lawyer could stop them from getting Léo" "What in formation?" "It's all in the case file" "What does it say?" "How do I get Léo back?" "Get a lawyer" "I took someone hostage." "They'll never let me out of here" "You can be released on judicial supervision... if you wear an ankle bracelet" "My colleague on the hostage case will agree to that" "Don't give up, Mr Jaulin" "DNA MATCH" "GABBAI IS LUCIE'S FATHER" "Gilou, where the hell are you?" "Gilou, the boss wants to see you" " No time" " I'd go, if I were you" " Did you want me?" " Inspector Escoffier" "Inspector Joubert and Chief Inspector Borgés... from the disciplinary committee" "Yes, Djibril" "Where's Gilou?" "He should be here." "Bensimon is on his way" "Don't worry." "He'll be here" "Shit." "The bastard's on time" "Fuck." "What's going on?" " What do we do?" " Call him" "Call him?" "That's all I've been doing" "Gilou, where are you?" "You're going to fuck this up" "Have you ever heard of Serge Alfonso?" "Alfonso?" "No" "He's a mechanic in Porte de Clignancourt" "No." "I don't think so" "Escoffier, I'm placing you under arrest... for conspiracy to receive stolen goods" "As colleagues, we won't handcuff you" "Don't make us regret it"
