"Come in" "Take the handcuffs off, please" "Thank you" "I see you still don't have a lawyer" "I haven't chosen one yet" "Have a seat" "Zacharie Gabaï... do you know him?" "Who is he?" "He's an armed robber who knew Sandrine at boarding school" "They stayed in touch" "Sandrine even helped him with a few robberies" "Did he kill Sandrine and Lucie?" "We can't yet be sure of that" "He's currently on the run." "We're looking for him" "Is that all you had to say?" "No." "There's something else" "I organised a test... of Sandrine's, Lucie's and your DNA" "The results may surprise you it appears Lucie is not your daughter" "Whose daughter is she?" "Zacharie Gabaï's" " Did you never suspect?" " No" "But why would he kill them?" "There's a lot we still don't know" "Did you want to say something?" "When Lucie was little... a parcel arrived on her birthday" "When Sandrine saw where it came from... she threw it in the bin" " Where was it from?" " A prison" "Which one?" "I don't remember" "What year was this?" "Lucie was three or four... so it must have been 2010 or 2011" "Jean-Luc, check if Zacharie Gabaï was incarcerated... from 2010 to 2011" "Can I go back to my cell?" "I need you to sign your statement" "Please, sit down" "SERIES CREATED BY ALEX ANDRA CLERT" "What's going on?" " What do they want?" " It's Alfonso" "One of his scooters knocked down a kid... who died on the spot" "One of our trackers was on the scooter" "They traced it back" "The mechanic said he worked for Gilou" " Will he get off lightly?" " I wouldn't get your hopes up" "Escoffier is their fall guy" "He didn't get those trackers by himself" "We were all in on it, even you" "Don't give me that shitty look." "I know what I have to do" " Servier" " I'll call you back" "Will the union help him?" " I've sent a list of lawyers" " What about the national office?" "I called ." "They said they would see how it goes" " This is Escoffier, after all" " Meaning?" "The union isn't going to just wade in and help" "Gilou is all too happy to come to us when he's in trouble... but he hasn't paid his dues in two years" "All things considered, I can see why" "Close the door" "They're going to give him the elbow... no doubt about it" "We're all he's got" "Roban, enlighten me... do you take me for a fool or have you lost your mind?" "Sorry?" "I personally ask the Vice-President... to let you assist Judge Mendy with her case... and what do you do?" "You go and search Tarek Ziani's home without warning me" "Prosecutor, Mr Ziani is..." "I've had a terrible morning, thanks to you" "The Foreign Office is furious about the Ziani case" "Just wait for the shit to hit the fan" "I'm used to such things" "I know you're thick-skinned, but this isn't about you it's Mendy's head on the block if you don't calm her down, she's the one who'll suffer" "Does Jaulin realise that Sandrine was involved in the cash machine raids?" "Not exactly" "Zach must be linked to Sandrine and Lucie's deaths" "Maybe, but if Zach is the father, that opens up other possibilities... like revenge, for instance" "We can't rule out Zach just because he's the father" "But the prints on the slipper and the car weren't his" "That means there was an accomplice to the crime... who we haven't yet identified" "Laure, do you have any news on Zach?" "Have you located him?" "Not yet" "But we're working on it" " What's her name?" " Carole Mendy" "Carole Mendy." "So, in light of the conclusions..." "Yes?" "Joséphine." "Take a seat" "So, now that Ziani can't leave the country... nothing can be signed abroad" "Jacques, check this won't ruin the new Luxembourg investment" "Catherine, likewise for his property deals" "The other problem is Ziani's diary it was seized during the search" "There's an envelope in that diary it came from us." "Ziani needs it back immediately" "What's in it?" "Financial documents that have nothing to do with the case" "Correspondence between a lawyer and a client is unseizable" "You can ask for the envelope to be taken away and sealed" "Yes, and that would only draw attention to the envelope if Ziani didn't object during the search... then normally, they won't give it back" " Did you say "normally"?" " Yes" "Ronan, we don't use that word when it comes to Ziani" "Joséphine Karlsson, any idea as to how we can get this envelope?" "Sorry." "I didn't introduce our new colleague, Joséphine Karlsson" "She's here to help our client out of his predicament" "So, can anyone get me that envelope?" "Sorry, but... why not just ask the judges for the diary?" "Why would they give it to you?" "I don't know." "Maybe if we asked nicely..." "Unless that's another word we can't use" "Very well" "Be my guest" "OK." "Thank you all" "I'll see you at 6:00pm, when we'll decide what to tell the press" "Why introduce me?" "I haven't agreed to work for you, yet" "Why else would you be here?" "And talented people are best when caught off-guard" "Did you see how quick off the mark you were?" "No lengthy procedures or appeals to the court" "That's why I asked you to join us" "You think differently" "Let me know about the diary" "Mathilde, show Joséphine her office... and take care of her, please" "Tricking some lowlife into doing a robbery is dodgy enough... but now Gilou's in the shit, too, I'm really worried" "Gilou needs our help" "Once we nab Zach they'll leave him alone" "The disciplinary committee will stitch him up, Zach or no Zach" "No, if we nail a big case they'll back off" "Do you have a better idea?" "Why didn't Gilou turn up?" "I was stuck there with Bensimon" "Look, call Bensimon and say the buyer wants to meet him tonight" " it's his last chance" " Will Gilou turn up?" " No, Tintin will" " Why not Gilou?" "Because he's doing something else." "OK?" "This whole thing stinks" "Look, just call Bensimon." "Tell him to be there tonight" "And stop moaning." "All right?" "Prick" "I don't like the way he talks to me" "We're all on edge isn't that what you meant?" "Tintin?" "I flew off the handle" "Call us when you have news" "Yeah." "I will" " I don't like him" " I think the feeling's mutual" "How long have you known Serge Alfonso?" "Five, six years" "He sold me a car, we got on, and we stayed in touch" " Is he an informant?" " No, an acquaintance" "Who you use as an informant?" "Yeah, sometimes." "Lots of kids get their bikes fixed at his garage" "Talking of bikes... this one knocked down a child in Pantin" "it didn't have any original parts it was rigged to do 120km/h... so the kid was thrown 60 metres and died instantly" "That's terrible" "But I don't see how I'm involved" "We found a tracker on it" "Look familiar?" "It's not one of ours, I can tell you that" " Then where's it from?" " No idea" "Ours are crap, but not that crap" "Let me quote Alfonso" ""lnspector Escoffier came to my garage... '...with trackers like the one you showed me" ""He asked me to fit them on scooters to catch a gang... '...operating in the 19th arrondissement"" "Your unit solved a similar case, recently" "You even made the papers" "OK." "Even if Alfonso is telling the truth, so what?" "We're allowed to use trackers - every unit does" "Besides, I didn't knock that kid over, did I?" "Using non-regulation trackers is prohibited... and so is forcing someone to sell stolen, tracked scooters" "Alfonso said I forced him to sell stolen scooters?" "He's perfectly capable of cooking up his own stupid plans" "True" "His garage is full of stolen scooters, and he admits it" "Well, then" "But he says more" ""I had decided to stop this illegal activity... '...but Escoffier made me continue, and threatened to arrest me... '...if I didn't fit trackers on the scooters... '...because he needed quick results in a jewellery theft case"" "Handling stolen goods and invasion of privacy..." "Not true" "You've swallowed Alfonso's story." "Now it's time you listened to me" "We'll take a break, first" " Would you like some water?" " I'm fine, thanks" "You said you had nearly found Gabaï last tine" "Bringing in the Crime Unit won't speed things up" "Let my team do their job" "I can't keep waiting and you know it." "I'm getting heat from on high" " I need progress" " You'll get it" "You have until Monday." "Not a day more" "The disciplinary committee is questioning one of my men lnspector Escoffier" "Yes, so I heard" "Could you get them to ease off a little?" "I doubt the committee will have much sympathy for your inspector" "Escoffier was doing his job" "Just as the Commissioner asked it was a tall order, and he achieved it" "You can't do that without bending a few rules" "I'm not sure the Commissioner would agree" "Your man crossed the line." "Now, no one will want to get involved" " incidentally, did you know?" " Did I know what?" "That he was messing around with trackers and a shady mechanic" "No more than you did" "Focus on the investigation, Herville" "Think of your future" "You've a chance to come back into the fold" "Don't waste it" "Ms Karlsson" " Hello, Your Honour" " How can I help?" "By returning certain items taken during the search on Ziani's home" "You should ask my colleague." "She's in charge of the case" "I won't lie." "This is quite urgent and I'm worried she'll drag her heels" "But I know you don't work that way" "These documents have no bearing on the case... and my client needs them" "You seem to have perked up a little" "I took your advice" "I'll check with my colleague and let you know" " Thank you." "Goodbye, Your Honour" " Goodbye" "So, Sandrine met Zach at boarding school... and also met Jaulin, who worked at a nearby café" "Then, she shagged them both" "She got pregnant and married Jaulin" "Did she think he was the father, or did she know he wasn't... but didn't want to live with Zach?" "We don't know" "He didn't even come in to see us" " I bet he did nothing about it" " He only thinks of himself" "He should get it, not Gilou." "Let's dob him in" "What's wrong with you?" "You can't drag your own boss into it" " You'd rather ditch Gilou?" " No one is ditching Gilou" "But what do we tell them?" "I was there when we hid the trackers" "You're just watching your own back" " What's it to you?" " They'll charge him" "Relax." "We don't know what they have on him if we say Herville got the trackers, it implicates us all" "So, if they question you, say you had no idea." "Got it?" "Yeah, Djibril?" " We can't just hang him out to dry" " It's not like that" "OK." "Thanks" "I understand ." "But what can you do?" "You're meeting Bensimon tonight" " Calm down" " Great" "I'll take the blame for the trackers" "I put them on Alfonso's scooters to catch those little scum bags... who were stealing necklaces" "Yeah." "That's all true" "But I never forced him into anything" "Did you know where the scooters came from?" "All I knew was, the kids took their scooters to Alfonso for repairs" "That's all that mattered to me" "So you admit... that Alfonso's stolen scooters were the reason you approached him" "Look, our sources aren't exactly saints, you know if they were, they would be useless" "The tracker on the crashed scooter was unregistered" "Why not use an approved tracker?" "Because there aren't enough of them" "Management guard them like gold dust" "But unregistered trackers are so convenient, aren't they?" "No need to follow procedure... untraceable..." "You know you're supposed to use regulation trackers?" "And the new law states you must first ask a judge" "Look, you're just doing your job... but with all due respect, you're living in a dream world if we did every case by the book, we'd close about five a year" "Now, we're getting somewhere" "You admit you used an unscrupulous mechanic.." "To sidestep procedure" "No." "I admit what I said, nothing more." "I didn't coerce him" "And I don't deal in stolen scooters - not yet, anyway" "We did what we had to, to close the case" " Did your colleagues know?" " No" "I was Alfonso's contact" "Fine" " You still don't want a lawyer?" " Why would I?" "They're only there for show, and I should know" "Even for the confrontation with Alfonso?" "You're not going to make me confront that bastard?" "We'll extend custody and do it tomorrow" "When?" "I have to take a friend to the doctor" "You're in custody, Escoffier" "And I'm afraid that's not just for show" "Go on, Tintin" "So, you're mates with Djibril?" "Why do you care?" "Just getting to know you" "Forget Djibril ." "Are you selling the cartridges or not?" "I'm just curious how you know him" "Who cares?" "You're selling, I'm buying" " How much will you buy them for?" " Depends." "How many are there?" "30,000" "Not bad" "The Chinese pay ten" "I'll buy them for eight" "No, nine" "Eight, cash in hand" "OK." "I'll round it up to 250,000 250 grand, cash" "Then you collect" "OK." "No problem." "Just tell me where" " I'll call you when we have it" " When will that be?" "Maybe next week" "The delivery lorry visits the warehouse twice a week" "OK" "If you want to get hold of me, tell Djibril" "Don't shop me to the police" "You're the go-between" " All good?" " Looks like it" "That was hard work" "I was sweating like a pig" "Thanks" "I asked for a bottle." "How am I meant to piss in a can?" "I forgot" "So, what's the buyer offering?" " 250 grand - 250?" "Are you mental?" "Marouane told us half a million" "No." "Half a million is the market value" "We pocket 250 grand." "That's not bad, is it?" "It will get you out of this dive" "No, it's not OK" " Can we trust Djibril?" " He gave us the details, didn't he?" "We just need to pick the right lorry at the right time" "Mate, the coppers are after you and the Frenchman wants his money" "You want to stay holed up in here forever, is that it?" "OK." "Let's do it" "Tell Oz I want to see Laetitia" " Are those the arms?" " That's right" "All present and correct" "That's the heart" " Do you want to hear it?" " Yeah." "I do" "Now, I'm going to be honest with you" "You have a placental abruption if you don't slow down and rest, you'll lose the baby" "it'll hang in there" "I picked up everything on Ziani's desk... and it's true, his gym membership isn't really relevant" "But Karlsson must want these papers for a reason" "I can't see one" "We'll photocopy them, just in case" "That envelope wasn't on Karlsson's list" "You're right" "She's asking for the documents... to distract us from this envelope" "I know what you're thinking, and we can't it's confidential, so we can't use it in the trial" " There's no use opening it" " It's already open" "You know that makes no difference." "I don't want to compromise my case" "Look, Carole." "I'm putting it back exactly where I found it" "And I'm going to call Ms Karlsson... to come and collect her items" " And do you want a fringe, too?" " Yes, please" " Yeah?" " It's Oz" "Where's Laetitia?" "Kim can do it." "She's French" " Do you know what I need?" " The day and time the lorry leaves" " What about your clothes?" " Leave it to Ne" "But it'll cost five grand" "To find a lorry?" "Don't be daft" "Five grand, or you'll be stuck in here" " Are you serious?" " I want five grand" "OK." "Fine." "Do it" "Now get lost." "We'll talk later" "Bensimon called." "They sent someone to check out the lorry" "They'll rob it as soon as it leaves" "Will Zach be there?" "They said a pro was helping them." "Jewish bloke, it has to be Zach" "And they want two cars for the robbery" "That's your problem, not ours" "Can't you sort me out with a few addresses?" "Or papers?" "The database tracks us when we search it" "Go out of town like everyone else, and bring us back two cars" " They don't want a couple of Twingos" " What, then?" " They want two Cayenne Turbos" " You do it." "You're the pro it'll take days to find them" " Don't you keep suspects' cars?" " Yeah" "Tell us the date." "We'll think about the Cayennes" "OK" "Come on ." "Hurry up, will you?" "Are you Pascal?" "Yeah" "I heard you were looking for a secretary" "Ask Head Office." "We don't deal with that here" "Shit." "That means I came here for nothing" "Where's Head Office?" "I don't know." "Some office block it's a mess." "How are you going to fit the rest in?" "We'll put it over there" "Thanks." "Maybe see you soon" "Bye" "Shit." "My phone's dead" "Can I plug it in somewhere?" "Go on ." "There must be a socket in there" "Yeah" "Go ahead" "I can't find a socket" "It's OK." "No one will come in" "Come here" "Come on" "You smell good" "Stop it." "I know you want to" "Come on." "Relax" "No" "Fuck" "Shut up." "Now stay there, got it?" "I told you not to move" "Open your legs" "PRINTER INK" "MARCH 29TH" "4:00AM 5:15AM" "6:00AM" "Yes?" "All right, Servier?" "There are still mice in the toilets" "I doubt it." "Pest control only came last week" "I saw one." "And they've shat in the urinals" " Listen, I don't have time for this" " Will you just come and look?" "This is such bollocks No." "There are mice in there" "Maybe pest control did a bad job" " When did you call them?" " Last week" "Really?" "This pisses me off" "PASSWORD NEEDED" "Shit" "PORSCHE CAYENNE TURBO PARIS REGION" "Look, behind the bogs..." "Can't you see it?" "Behind the toilet." "Loads of mouse droppings" "Shall I get a torch?" "Do you want a torch?" "Give me the paper" "OK." "Tomorrow, 4:00am." "Where does the lorry go from?" "The warehouse?" "The car park?" "Is it protected?" "It goes from the car park" "There's just a guy who checks if the lorry is on his list" "Are you ill or something?" "What are you, a doctor?" "You got what you wanted" "Here" "What's this?" "You'll get the rest when we sell the stuff." "Now go" "Go on." "Piss off" "That little dyke is getting on my nerves" "She can stick her money up her arse" "What the fuck did you eat?" "For fuck's sake" "May I?" "Do you want the good news?" "The irons have been examined... and the shape matches the injuries on the plaintiff's head" "Excellent" "One iron even has blood and Ziani's DNA on it" "So, what next?" "We summon Ziani for a confrontation" "Your ears will be burning" " Do you have a cure for that?" " You get used to it" "I'll be back in a minute" "My husband is on duty tonight." "We need a nanny" " What would he do without you?" " Nothing" "Nothing missing?" "No." "I don't think so." "Thank you" "I meant to tell you, you'll receive a summons" "What for?" "A confrontation between your client and his staff" " Has something happened?" " Not really" "Judge Mendy thinks that bringing them together will move the case forward" "Very well" " Goodbye, Your Honour" " Goodbye, Ms Karlsson" "Excuse me, is Judge Mendy here?" "No" "I need to check one of my clients' files" " Tarek Ziani" "Just a second" " Here" " Thank you" "That's bollocks" "I never coerced or threatened Alfonso" "Why would I lie?" "He thinks he'll get off lightly if he takes me with him" "Did you see his garage?" "It's sketchy as hell" "Typical copper." "The minute they smell trouble they drop you in it" "That's not true" "I admit using those trackers... but I was just doing my job" "I did it to catch the gang, that's all" "That's why I joined CID... to avoid these shit cases where the criminal never goes to prison" "You want to lock me up for something I've not done" "I'm an officer of the law, but you would rather take his word for it?" "I'd like you to listen to something" "Look, I'll ignore the stolen scooters if you don't ask about the trackers" "OK." "But I don't want trouble" "Stop whining and do as I say" "If someone comes snooping around, I'll take care of it" "OK" "You realise you just saved diplomatic relations between France and Libya?" "Saving you would be a start" "We have a problem, Tarek." "One of your staff retracted their statement" "Great." "Why is that a problem?" "The judge will think you pressured the plaintiff to do so" "He'll have to prove it" "That's exactly what he'll try to do" "He wants a confrontation between you and the maid, who is now partly deaf it's her word against mine" "Except the test results from the iron are in, and they're not good" "Mr Ziani, do you ever iron your clothes yourself?" "What do you think?" "Do you ever handle any of the irons that were seized at your house?" "I pay people for that" "So why was your DNA found on one?" "This could change the judges' minds about your custody status" "if you won't tell the truth, I'll suggest something" "Go ahead" "You were about to go out to a party... but while eating, you dropped food on your tie" "You cleaned it with soap and water... then ironed it, to help dry it out" "Why not use another tie?" "Because your wife liked this one, and you wanted to make her happy" "And you guarantee that'll get me off?" "No." "All I can guarantee is to do my best" "Tell the judges that if they want me, they can come and find me" "What are you doing, Tarek?" "Violating your judicial supervision will harm your defence" "You'll think of something." "I trust you" "I loved the tie story" "So, the lorry leaves Bobigny at 4:00am... heading for Le Bourget" "They'll target it somewhere on the way... so we'll trail the lorry as soon as it leaves" "We'll let then rob it... then, when they stop for the handover, we'll nab them" " Which is when?" " We don't know" "You don't know when the robbery is, or the handover?" "Are you sure there's a lorry?" "Sure." "And Zach will be there" " Did Djibril tell you that?" " Yes, boss" "And Tintin won't con me, because Bensimon has seen him" "So we have four vehicles, plus back-up it may be our last chance to catch Zach... so stay on your toes" "We leave at 3:00am ." "Goodnight" "Good luck, everyone" "Berthaud" "Either we work together on this... or you tell me nothing, and take the blame if you blow it" "When you got Djibril off the hook... he was delivering a car for an ink cartridge robbery, right?" "Is this the same job?" "Zach needs money" "We let him know about the job to reel him in" "This could be our only chance, boss it might help Gilou if we get Zach now" "The committee has held him for nearly 30 hours" "Have you followed procedure?" "I'm coming" "This is Laure." "Not long now" "Here comes a lorry." "Nobody move until we're sure" " Copy" " Copy that" "OK, it's the right number plate" "Which cars are those?" "This is Laure" "A Mégane and a Ford are following the lorry, not the Cayennes" " What Cayennes?" " They were meant to be Cayennes" "OK." "Let's trail them" " Got it" " Copy that" "We're here" "Are you sure that's Zach, behind the lorry?" "This is what they planned" "We're following the target" "He's turning right, towards the motorway" "Cop y that" "Fuck." "It's the police" "Our colleagues are pulling the lorry over." "Hang back" "They've stopped" "There's a second lorry." "What's going on?" "I can see Bensimon it's Zach's gang" "They're hitching the trailer to another cab" "We'll block them in" "JP, Tom, go around the other side" "Where the fuck are you, Zach?" "Call me" "Go on ." "Get in there" "Hurry up" "Nico, move in closer" "This is Tom." "We're ready" "OK" "Let's go" "Fuck" "Police." "Don't move." "Come here" " Get Bensimon" " Against the car, now" "Where is he?" "Take him away it's over, sir." "Come with me" "Have you got Zach?" "Let's go" "Where's Zach?" " Have you got him?" " No" " Laure" " Where is he?" " He's not here" " Take them away" " Fuck - it's food." "They got the wrong lorry" "Where the fuck did he go?" "JP." "Bensimon?" "He ran off into the woods" "Shit" "I'll ask you one more time" "Where's my money?" "You understand that?" "Go on" "We need to talk" " Where's Zach?" " Why?" "What happened?" "He squealed on us, that's what." "He told the cops" "Did you call him?" "He won't pick up." "Lend Ne your phone" "Motherfucker" "Call him from this one" "He's not fucking answering" " What do you want to do?" " No idea" " Got any cash?" " Yeah." "Sure" " ls 300 OK?" " Yeah." "Nice one" " You never saw me" " No worries" "Call me." "OK?" "You've never met a man called Zach?" "How about Bensimon?" "No?" "Never heard of them" "OK." "Here's your statement." "Read it and sign" "Well?" "Nothing, just like the last two." "They don't know a thing" "Who do you think warned Zach?" " Djibril?" " Why would he?" "Yeah" "What?" "Wait a second" "It's Djibril." "I'm putting you on speaker" "Go on" "Bensimon came to the Pacha" "He thinks Zach squealed." "He's the only one who wasn't there" "He's not picking up the phone" " Wait." "You have Zach's number?" " Yeah." "That's why I called" "Go ahead" "Pen..." "Wait" " OK - 0643..." "Yes" "OK." "Thanks" "We'll track its location" "Fuck" "it's coming from the middle of a field" "What the hell is this?" "This is Tintin ." "It's on the right" "The signal is coming from somewhere on the right-hand side" "Yeah." "Over by that manure pile." "There's a little track"
