"What are you doing?" "I'm thirsty." "Witnesses" "Series created by Hervé Hadmar" "His wife?" "No sign of her or the son." "This is madness." "Gorbier took out Vacquier and three coppers." "Three coppers!" "And no one saw or heard a thing!" "hello." "Any idea where he might have taken them?" "No." "About last night, I wanted to say..." "You've been a better copper than me." "I must find them, Sandra." "I must rescue his wife and son." "What's he playing at?" "I think he wants to recreate the life he used to have." "playing happy families holed up in a place he's had ready for months." "What happened last night was the trigger." "Serano is dead and my son's alive." "He wants us to know he's back in control." "So, he moves his family into a new home." "Where?" "In a place which fits with his fantasy of the perfect family." "A big, new house for a fresh start." " A new house?" " Yes." "Somewhere completely new." "New furniture, new cutlery, new bedding..." "Like a show home?" "Yes?" "How about your end?" "No." "still nothing." "One home to go and we'II have checked the whole area." "How many bloody houses do they have to check?" "40?" "50?" "These homes give me the willies." " could you live here?" " Why?" "I couId never live in a house like this." "I Iike the smell of cooking and hearing my neighbours fucking." "Living alone in a house like this would be like living in a coffin." "Move in with my bloke." "You'd suit each other." "Maybe Gorbier's taken them down south." "He's had time." "No." "This area is his home." "This is where they met where his son was born where they lived together." "They must be in this area." "Isn't it your birthday today?" " You remembered." " Happy birthday." "That's kind of you." "Nothing in your car works." "Are you paul Maisonneuve?" "Yes." "Why?" "He gave me something for you." "Who?" "Kaz." "This is for you." "He gave me 50 euros." "He said you'd give me another 50." "When did you see the man with the mobile?" "Two days ago." "would you recognise him?" "It was him." "Was he alone?" "Yes." "Was he in a car?" "No." "I was cycling near the trees and he came out of the woods." "So, he came over to you, gave you the mobile told you to make sure paul got it gave you the cash, then..?" "He went back into the woods." "Did he say anything else?" "Yes." "He told me that if I talked to anyone or gave the mobile to anyone else he'd come back and punish me." "OK." "Are you all right?" " You look a bit..." " No." "I'm fine." "It's prepaid." "It seems it was bought in town just over a month ago." "No contract." "No way of tracing it." "What does he want?" "To speak to me." "He has the number." "He'II call when he wants to speak to me." "AII A-roads and most B-roads are under surveillance." "We've had no joy checking new homes in the area where they were taken." "We're widening the search area but frankly, we're just trying our luck." "We can't just wait for Gorbier to ring us." "No." "We're not waiting." "Did Gorbier have any visitors?" "Very few." "But he did receive lots of post and fan mail." "Did you have someone in mind?" "Yes." "Someone who could put him up." " Who wrote to him?" "We need names." " Stop right there." "Everything was lost in the fire." "We've nothing left." "Does no one stand out in your mind?" "Someone who came to see him regularly..?" "Wait." "A woman came to see him a few times." "A young woman with red hair." "CIara Kurkiewicz." "Do you think it's possible?" "Do you know why you're here?" "Yes." "He's escaped, hasn't he?" "CIara, you're Kaz Gorbier's only surviving victim." "You're the only one who saw how he worked." "You're the only one he spoke to." "I told you everything four years ago." "I wanted to see you, anyway." "You attended Gorbier's entire trial." "I saw how you looked at him." "Did you go and visit him?" "CIara?" "Yeah." " several times?" " No." "only once." " Are you sure?" " Yes." "Has he tried to contact you?" "No." " He could have done." " Yes, but he hasn't." "CIara, someone visited him several times." "It was a young woman like you." "You might have seen her." "No." "I never saw anybody else." "When you saw him, what did he say?" " I don't..." " You remember perfectly." "He spoke about the women he'd killed." "He told me he dreamed of living in a big house with all of them with me, too." "So..." "This big house, where he wanted to live..." "Did he say anything else about it?" "Did he describe it?" "Did he say where it wouId be?" "No." "I don't think so." "A big house, so he can start afresh..." "Any ideas?" "None." "What's wrong with that man?" "Why aren't you in bed?" " What's wrong with him?" " well..." " He's tired." " Did he do lots of exercise?" "exactly." "He did lots of exercise." "Now, go to bed." "I'm coming." "Eric." "Eric." "I have to go." "Don't worry." " Where are you going?" "It's 1am." " I'II explain later." "Yes." "I think my dad used to play tennis." "Sorry, caroline." "This is vital - do you think or are you sure?" "I'm sure, but it was a Iong time ago I think it was in the 90s." " Do you know why he stopped?" "No." "OK." "Thanks." "I'm sorry I woke you." " That's OK." " Goodnight." "hello, SybiI?" "It's Sandra." "I know it's late, but I have a massive favour to ask you." "Are you at work?" "I'm on my way." "I'II explain in a bit." "See you soon." " Which archive, again?" " Sports." "We're about to go to press and you want to see the sports archives?" "You're a weird girl." "Yeah, yeah." "I know." "This will cost you." "You owe me a bottle of wine." "Sit down here." "I'II be back." " Did you make a wish?" " Yes." "I wish that bloody phone would ring." "What's his game?" "Keep us guessing for two or three weeks, while I put on 15 kilos and can no Ionger run after him?" "Did your son ring for your birthday?" "Yes." "He was on the phone for two minutes" "He wants to spend the school holidays with me." "No." "His mum says no." ""Réunion is too far"." ""He doesn't like flying"." "bloody hell." "His mum's just scared I'II keep him here." "I had it all planned." "We were going to go go-karting." "He loves it." "Don't you miss it, sometimes?" "A woman to love, to hold and all that..." "Look..." "Of course he misses that." "Why not talk to MéIanie?" "MéIanie?" "Who's MéIanie?" "From the bowling alley." "The woman at the bowling alley?" "Yeah, bowling." "What..?" "talk to her." ""talk to her"?" "What do I say?" "OK, paul." "shall I get down on my knees and tell her..?" "What?" "shall I tell her she's the most beautiful woman I've ever seen?" "I'm too old." "Give it a rest." "I'm not saying anything!" "Just talk to her." "She's married." "UnhappiIy married." "I saw the way she looked at you." "talk to her." "doubles pair Muse and Weber won..." "LapIace, Muse and Weber - the 4 finalists in the '92 local tournament" " hello?" " It's Sandra." "Check the list of tradesmen in Le Tréport." "Where is it?" "What colour is it?" "I've found it." "The businessman who stopped trading some years ago..." "Was it Yvan Kremer?" "Yes." "Kremer." "Yvan Kremer." "Kremer..." "Yes." "That's right." "Why?" "paul." "Sandra's found something." "Do you think he's the killer?" "He certainly knew Weber, Muse and LapIace." "hello." "Does Yvan Kremer work here?" " Yes." "Mr Kremer works here." " Is he small, dark and about 40?" " Why?" " Look." "He's about to do a runner." "Kremer wasn't the killer." "He was the final victim." " How can that be?" " That's the question." "Muse was a month ago." "Weber was last week." "The killer knows someone's digging up his victims." "He knows we're after him." "He knows he's in danger." "We caught LapIace before he did, but he wouldn't talk." "For the final victim, he couldn't let us get to him first." "We missed him by five minutes!" "We'II need a list of passengers." "But four hours ago, Kremer didn't know he'd be on that ferry." "That means the killer was already here." "He saw us, improvised and boarded." "Shit." "Fucking shit." " Are you OK, Sandra?" " What?" "Are you OK?" "well?" "Divorced, no kids." "We searched his flat, 10km away." "We didn't find anything, just a computer." "No link to the others?" "Nothing, as of yet." "No record of cash deposits?" "They're checking now." "What?" "So..." "will you tell me?" "Yes or no?" "What?" "What happened eight years ago, when you quit training." "No." "I'm not going to tell you." "Do you often feel sick, Iike when you got off the ferry?"

"I know, I know." "Your girlfriend looks a right mess." " I didn't say anything." " No, but you were thinking it." "No one cares how you look." "But if you're going to be on the phone all night, go home." "I said I would come and I will." "OK." "I'II stop." "No, thanks." "I must quit." "Do you have a light?" "Eric told me you're a copper." "What's he like at work?" "Who?" "My boyfriend." "What's he like?" "What do you mean?" "I don't know." "Is he a slave driver?" "He's OK." "We both wear the same Iipstick." "Yes." "I'd noticed." "It's uncanny." "You and I have so much in common." "I don't know." " Haven't you named her?" " No." "Let's call her Capucine." "Does that sound good?" " Capucine's a cool name." " Yeah." "Look..." " Who does she remind you of?" " Mummy." " She's like Mummy." " Yes." "You can do this..." "Look." "Look at her hair." "Wow!" "Did you pIait her hair?" "She and I..." "It's..."

"What if he's chosen a more modest home?" "A quiet, little house, Iike any other so he can start afresh." "OK." "But where?" "You need to turn it, Iike this." "Yeah." "Not too close to the flame." "There you go." "Warm it gently and then light it." "Like this." "careful." "Look." "It's perfect." "Here you go." " Here." " Thanks." "I'm off." "I'm leaving the area." "Why?" "Because it's dead here." "When will you go?" "I don't know." "It depends." "On what?" "Is this about your inquiry?" "No." "No." "I came to see you." "Why?" "It gives me the strength to go on." "Who's the guy you're after?" "Gorbier." "Kaz Gorbier." "ChIoé." " What are you doing here, sweetie." " I don't know." "I had a bad dream and woke up here." "Come here." "Come here, sweetie." "Back to bed." " Are you OK?" " Yes." "OK." "I'II bite the bullet." "Listen..." "This rarely happens to me." "But when..." "With you, I'm..." "Yes." "There's a man over there." "He's watching us." "How weird." "He's just jealous." "Maybe." "well..." "I think I should be going, because..." "OK." "well, enjoy!" "Yes?" "paul, it's been a Iong time." "That bastard you work with the one who made my son say he'd rather I was dead..." "Do you want to see him again?" "Your favourite tree..." " Come alone." " Which tree?" "If you've forgotten, your leg ought to remind you." "Kaz." "Let him go." "Come alone." "What's going on?" "She was sleepwalking." "What?" "She sIeepwaIks." "I don't believe it." "When did she start doing that?" "Are you OK?" "Yes?" "Sandra, it's me." "Gorbier called." "Sandra, he has Justin." "He's got Justin." "What?" "I'm to meet him." "If I don't, he'll kill him." "paul, don't go." "You know me." "I have to go." "What do you want?" "Do you want to die?" "Do you want him to murder you, then murder his family?" "paul, he has Justin." "It's too late." "I heard his voice." "There's still hope." "I'II come with you." " No." " Why not?" "I'm just warning you." "call Max." "tell her I did what I needed to do." "paul, don't go." "Where are you?" "paul!" "Fuck." "Can you still use one of those?" "Where is he?" "If you shoot, you'II never see him again." "But if you come with me..." "Where are we going?" "Home." "Where's Justin?" "Come with me, paul." "No." "I can't come with you." "Why not?" "I think you can." "Why would I do that?" "You have no choice." "Anyway, you're ready." "Two years ago, you wanted to die here." "Nothing has changed, has it?" "Come with me, paul." "He took him with him." "Over here!" " well?" " He's in a coma." "Have his wife and son been told?" "They will be here tomorrow but he wouldn't want his son to see him like this." "What do the doctors say?" "will he wake up?" "It's hard to say." "Given his injuries, all the fractures and the head trauma he sustained..." "It might be for the best if he didn't." "So, Kremer was divorced, with no kids." "But he had friends." "I'II go to his flat." "Come with me." "No." "I'II stay here." "Why wait here?" "Sandra, it's over." "paul was right." "He was right about everything." "Gorbier got what he wanted." "He got paul." "No one will be digging up Kremer this evening." "Max." "I'II keep watch here tonight." "Do you understand?" "It's quite simple." "I'II ask Karim to stay with you." "please." "Ask Karim." "I know you can hear me, paul." "In a few seconds, you'II open your eyes." "The drug you've ingested is strong, so I know that it's hard but I want you to try and open your eyes." "Go on." "Come on." "Yes, that's right." "Carry on." "You can do it." "You'II try to move your legs but it's no use." "This drug affects the sciatic nerve." "So, your lower limbs will still be out of action for a bit." "I hope you'II understand." "Sorry." "Good." "Carry on." "Justin..." "Justin didn't survive his injuries." "Dig in." "Sandra, I've had enough." " Wait." "We're not leaving yet." "I'm getting soaked here." "I told you, we're not leaving yet." " What are you playing at?" " I need a cup of coffee." "Where are they?" "They're sleeping." "The bodies in the show homes the photo..." "Why all the drama?" "So I would catch the murderer?" "So I'd be the great copper I once was and you could destroy me?" "To show the world that you're stronger than me?" "That's it, isn't it?" "Why are you smiling?" "You make me smile, paul." "Remember how, five years ago, I told you it wouId be your turn to cry?" "That time has come." "AII this stuff about show homes and bodies..." "It's not me digging them up." "It's not me." "This is pointless." "You've said that a dozen times." "I've got it." "OK." "Stay in the car." "I'II go."
