"Take them off, take them off!" "Hang on!" "Hang on, get off!" "Stop!" "Stop!" "What you doing?" "Get out!" "What are you doing?" "Get out!" " Shit!" " Shut the door!" "Let no-one through." "No media, no photographers." "If they insist, call me." "So the guy from the boat didn't notice anything" "He can't even say when the girl got hooked on" "Where's Laure?" "Not here yet?" "I left two messages, Christ knows where she is" "Perfect" "When was your last period?" "No idea." "I never pay attention." "Blood pressure at 9/7 is a bit low." "Lift up your t-shirt and lower your trousers" "Let's have a closer look." "So..." "Well, no need to look any further." "Look" "That's your abdominal wall - here's your womb - and that thing that's moving is a foetus." "What?" "There's its head, here's its limbs" "You're pregnant." "About fifteen weeks." "You have a slight detachment of the placenta." "Which would explain the bleeding." "It happens." "It's not serious, but you absolutely must rest." "Sorry." "Hello?" "Yes Gilou?" "What - now?" "OK, I'm on my way." "Got to go, it's work." "The scan for the first trimester is very important." "Don't put off getting it done." "Madam!" "Here, don't forget to let the health service know you're pregnant." "What the hell you doing?" "I've rung you fifteen times." "In a nutshell, what have we got?" "A woman trapped under the barge - she's been tied up with electric cable she's trapped in the rails - and the divers are having a mare detaching her." "So how's all the partying going?" "Good morning, sir." " Good morning, Captain." " We'd given up on you, Berthaud." "Have you taken a sample of canal water?" "Yeah yeah." "Get ready, we're taking her out." "Can you tell the divers to check under the hull for more bodies and to search the canal too?" "They know how to do their job." "Will you tell them anyway?" "Yeah." "Tintin, take charge of the divers, me and Laure will do the body report." "It'll be quicker with the two of us." "It's better if we both do it, right?" "We have a Caucasian woman brunette, young, wearing jeans and a dark blue shirt, navy blue trainers." "Several scars on the arms and on the face." "She is tightly attached with an electric cable to a... little girl who must be 5 or 6 years old, also Caucasian." "The bodies are facing each other, the little girl is wearing - purple pyjamas." "The top has polka dots." "Just one slipper on the right foot." "Scratch marks on the legs." "And on the arms." "The face is undamaged." "I'll get some pliers." "Leave it, Gilou." "They'll separate them at the lab." "Get some shots." "Let's fingerprint them and get them out of here." "The bodies are still in good condition." "They've only been in the water a day or two." "They're mother and daughter?" "They resemble each other." "What's your gut say?" "Could be anything." "Maybe immigrants, or a domestic dispute..." "Tit-for-tat killing..." "At this stage it's impossible to say" "As soon as I get back I'll open an enquiry and get the autopsies done" "Who's the duty magistrate?" "Richemand." "Could you get Roban instead?" "I'd much rather work with someone I know, sir." "If you think this case is going to keep you awake at night tell me and I'll get another department on it." "The captain will do as she's told." "She'll be fine working with Richemand." "Right, Berthaud?" "Yes, sir." "Shall I give you a lift, sir?" "I'm sick to death of that fucker." "When's he due to fuck off?" "Any time now." "We've got fuck all to go on, guys." "The quayside search found nothing" "No witnesses" "No record of the woman's fingerprints" "What about the barge?" "The divers looked at everything the hull, the canal they found nothing." "Where was the barge coming from?" "A port on the Canal de l'Ourcq." "It handles the off-loading of building materials." "Could it be a suicide?" "A desperate woman who ties her daughter to herself and jumps into the water?" "They're tied up from behind." "You're not wrong." "So why so many knots?" "Could someone else have been attached?" "There could, which is why we're checking there aren't other bodies that have become detached and floated up and got caught on the rails of the barge." "I want to know where they were thrown in." "Gilou, check if there's CCTV along the canal send in teams to search the banks and we'll go through anything they find." "Sure." "JP, Tintin, call the police chiefs of Aubervilliers," "St Denis and Pantin to see if they've reported anything." "Tom - wire all the police forces." "Ask them if they've recorded any worrying disappearances" "The quicker we identify the victims the quicker we'll make progress." "Yep, no doubt about that." "You look like death warmed up." "For fuck's sake, get a grip!" "Gilou, there are days I'd rather not wake up." "I'm going to call a press conference for this afternoon." "I need you to write a detailed note on the investigation for me." "To stop the media speculating and making stuff up." "Please tell me you haven't asked me in just to sort out a note." "Have you guessed then?" "Here..." "I've had the details of your next position." "Administrative HQ?" "You're giving me a desk job?" " What were you expecting?" " A Main Unit position." "At worst, the ministry, not this shit hole." "Who's giving me the boot - the police federation?" "You've not made many friends since the Riffaut affair." "One of your men died in the explosion." "Everyone expects you to be put out to pasture." "For how long?" "I don't know... a few years?" "Then if all goes well, you could come back to a more hands-on role." "In a few years I'll be dead." "Listen, Herville, I suggest you co-operate." "So you apply, you send it to the central administration and the job will start in two months time." "And meanwhile, I suggest you keep a low profile." "You'll be doing yourself a favour." "Don't forget my note for the press this afternoon." "It's not the end of the world." "You keep your salary, take a bit of a back seat." "Maybe even get a company car." "Could have been a lot worse." "Laure, look " "I've had this made." "I plan to put it up in the lobby." "Help us remember why we moved office." "What do you reckon?" "Don't see why." "You don't see why?" "Cause it's Sami..." "Do you need a sign to remember him?" "Well, it's a way of not forgetting him, y'know?" "So he stays part of the team..." "Sami's dead." "A bit of plastic is not going to bring him back." " Yeah, but..." " That's enough!" "Yeah, that's enough..." "Want a hand?" "Nobody touches that!" "Sorry, Sami, I didn't see it was yours, sorry..." "At this rate, you won't last long, you know?" "Boozing every night, two hours sleep, not eating properly..." "What do you get out of it?" "It stops me thinking." "Right, and it works, does it?" "Think so?" "Cause I'm still alive?" "Exactly, you're still alive, so make the most of it." "Live your life!" "Why don't you come boxing with me?" "Does boxing help?" "You do what you can to feel better." "Yeah... you're pretty ripped." "You know, you've put on a few pounds." "Cause of eating all that shit." "Berthaud, my office, now." "Cock." "Right, Berthaud..." "Cards on the table, we've never really got along, have we?" "Well, you're going to be delighted." "In two months, I'll be gone." "The boss wants to kick me upstairs to a job with no purpose, no power doing work with no relation to my seniority" "As a swansong, it could be better, right?" "No doubt." "Sir." "I want to do a deal with you, Berthaud." "We start again from scratch." "We learn to work together, we become a team, we throw everything into the double murder, we solve it and everyone gets off my back about my fuck-ups what do you say?" "You want me to help you restore your reputation?" "In return, I give you everything you need, people, money, resources, anything you ask for." " I'm not used to trusting you, sir." " For fuck's sake, Berthaud..." "I'm standing naked before you." "It's humiliating enough as it is." " OK, but I need one thing." " What?" "I want Roban." "Being a good judge and having a career are two things that are not necessarily linked." "Let's say you've been nominated to the bench for your intelligence but to be successful, this intelligence will be useless." "Listen, if you're too good, if you cause too many ripples you'll have very little chance of progressing upwards." "The most important criterion for promotion in the judiciary is being a conformist, a boot licker." "Are you trying to put us off?" "Of course not." "I'm telling you so you know exactly what you're getting into." "Look, it's simple, being an independent judge means not worrying about getting ahead." "But did you go into law just to please those above you?" "I doubt it." "So... be independent." "Be brave." "You won't be popular." "But it gives you time to work on your cases." "Thank you, and I wish you all the best." "I've warmed them up for you, sir." "Quite an achievement." "What did you tell them?" "That they've chosen a hypocritical line of work." "Roban, I've just come from the senior judge's office." "The double canal murder is a primrose path to trouble." "He wants a big hitter in charge." "Someone like you." "Does he realise I'm not a duty judge?" "He doesn't give a damn." "The case notes will come through on my official say-so." "Everyone wants you leading the enquiry including the police." "If I was you I'd take it." "These kinds of sensitive cases can show a judge's worth." "I already have a sensitive case." "The police officer killed by a driver." "One more reason to take it on." "The wind is in your sails, Roban, make the most of it." "Being given the best cases is a privilege." "The privilege is being able to work unmolested." "Which police department is so keen to have me?" "Captain Berthaud's." "You should have told me before." "Morning everyone." "Hang on!" "Hello?" "Yes." "No problem, thanks very much." "We were daft to let this office go, it wasn't bad at all." "Worse,you're going to have to to do the inventory on your own." "An arrest for mugging." "Fourth this week." "Pretty good, huh?" "You shouldn't have let the illegal immigrants go." "You had enough clients to pay for an office " "Forget it, Pierre, there were too many compromises with them" "I don't want to end up in any more shitty situations" "I prefer picking up duty solicitor jobs at 300 Euros a pop." "You've changed your tune." "Yeah." "Wait till I land a big job and get back on top." "Meanwhile, if I have to suck up duty jobs to keep going" "I'll grin and bear it." "I'm still full of surprises." "Hello, I'm Maître Karlsson" "I'm here for an arrest for mugging." " Renaud Lefèvre." " Renaud Lefèvre..." "He's not here anymore." "Isn't that him, then?" "No, he's in for the police officer who was run over." "We had to release your guy, he was arrested by mistake." "Thanks for letting me know, I like a wasted trip across town." "Sorry." "Excuse me..." "Hello, my name is Karlsson, is anyone looking after you?" "Yeah, my lawyer's just out there." "Making a call." "Isn't she a bit young?" "You know what you'll get for killing a police officer?" "Nothing to do with me it's these fuckers who say I killed their mate." "Bloody liars, they killed him." "What do you mean?" "I jumped a red light, sure, but I swear I never ran him over." "These fuckers did it." "Quiet you." "What's your lawyer's name?" "Brochant." "I'll be back in a minute." "Hello, I'm Joséphine Karlsson, I'm also a lawyer." "None of my business, but I'm worried the cops really seem to have it in for your client." "He killed a police officer, right?" "He says he did nothing that the police killed their colleague and are blaming it on him." "If it's true, it's bloody serious." "And you believe him?" "Yes." "Except the case is off to a bad start." " My client has prior convictions." " What kind?" "Driving without a licence, one for assault, but luckily he's going to be seen by Judge Roban." "Apparently he's good." "Roban?" "He's the worst of all!" "The Roban I know will take the cops' side" "Really?" "Plus the cops will have the top legal guys the police federation's support, the press and all that jazz." "Lucky you look like you're up to the job." "Hardly, I've only been at the bar for 3 years." "Exactly, you should go for it, it's a great case." "I mean, assuming you win it." "Worst case, you lose and spend a few months coming back but it's fine, you're young." " It's not fine." "I'm freelance, I can't afford to lose." "I'm sorry, I've got to get going." "Hang on." "Would you mind taking the case on?" "OK." "What's your client's name?" "Kevin Lesueur" "Mr Lesueur, I will be defending you." "Shall we get to know each other later when we meet the judge?" "So, tell me..." "OK, let's start cutting." "Judging by the body type and the absence of incisors" "I'd say she was between 6 and 7 years old." "The lesions on her limbs were inflicted after her death probably due to scraping along the bottom of the canal or by passing boats." "How did she die?" "Hard to say." "There's no trace of violence, no bruising, which suggests she was suffocated or strangled." "What about drowning?" "External examination won't tell us that." "we need to wait for the tissue study." "It'll tell us if there's water in her lungs." "But she died recently - given the state of the body" "48 hours ago, at most." "Right, let's see what the mother can tell us." "Good morning, sir." "I rarely come to autopsies but given the circumstances" "I'd have regretted letting you do all the dirty work." "You've taken the case." "You didn't leave me much choice." "Same post-death lesions as on the little girl's arms" "There's something here." "These two cuts indicate a very violent blow." "A rock or a very heavy object." "It must have bled a lot." "Is that what caused the death?" "Possibly, we'll look at that on the X-ray." "What's this black thing here?" "Tar." "Look, she also has some on her shoulders along with some slight abrasions." "Marks caused by a slight grazing of the skin." "The body has been dragged along the ground, if you like." "And just look at her ankles." "It looks like a haematoma." "And for the tar to stick, it would have to be warm?" "Precisely." "And where is warm tar normally found?" "It looks to me like a domestic dispute." "What makes you say that?" "Modern disputes always follow the same pattern." "There's always a father behind the murder of a mother and child." "Possibly." "I want to thank you, sir, I find all that " "No need." "Experience helps us deal with many terrible things, but it's of no great help in dealing with the death of a child." "Hello, I'm Kevin Lesueur's lawyer, is he still in his cell?" "No, he's been taken up." "Room number 4." "Thanks." "Sorry to disturb you, but I have a meeting with this gentleman." "Who are you?" "Joséphine Karlsson, you?" "Tisseron." "I'm very sorry, but Mr Lesueur has asked me to defend him." "There must be a misunderstanding because - we saw each other at the police station this morning and we agreed to meet to prepare his meeting with the judge." "You can't change lawyers willy-nilly." "Madam - has Mr Lesueur been assigned to you?" "Yes." "Not officially, but yes." "Right." "In which case, please be so kind as to let us work and to close the door behind you." "Leave." "Leave." "Could I talk to you a second?" "Madam, have you not been taught to say hello?" "Hello, sir, I've just had a client poached from me just before his first hearing interview." "Am I supposed to be upset about that?" "Well, unless you think it's acceptable practice " "A topic you know a little about." "Really, think about your own methods before attacking others." "Herville said you managed to land Roban?" "What's suddenly made him get his arse in gear?" "He's freaking out about his transfer." "Otherwise, don't worry he'd still stab us in the back when needed." "What the fuck's that doing on my desk?" " Tintin's stuff goes there." " Where is Tintin?" "If the bodies were dragged, there may have only been one guy." "At most two." "The road wasn't busy or it would have been obvious." "One with roadworks maybe." "Which would explain the tar." "Did anyone mention works going on near the canal, Tom?" "Yes they did, at Aubervilliers." " They're doing the quayside." " Show me." "Just here, Quai François Mitterrand." "What's the area like?" "Pretty non-descript, really." "There's a car park, a few import- export firms, some works vehicles, otherwise..." "Can you check if there's CCTV?" "Call the council, ask them if they've noticed anything unusual." "I'll get the clothes dried." " Forensics might find something " " Laure!" "Just to say..." "I'm really sorry about Sami's plaque." "I realise it wasn't really the right time..." "What did I say?" "Something stupid probably." "I'm keeping my trap shut but you know what I think, right?" "Don't be a prick, Gilou." "It's not what you think." "Do you think I'm an idiot?" "Think I don't know about getting pissed all night?" "That's not why I threw up, OK?" "I threw up because I'm pregnant." "Happy?" "Don't ask whether it's Sami's or Brémont's, I've no idea." "Anyway, it doesn't matter, I'm not keeping it." "Why not?" "Why do you think?" "Come in." "My dear chap, I was expecting you." "Good morning Mr Chairman." "You know the bar considers you a real one-off." "It's not every day a prosecutor turns lawyer." "Some think it's a step backward." "People can be stupid." "On the contrary, it's an asset." "Proof of an unwavering commitment to freedom." "We need someone like you on the ruling council." "On the ruling council?" "I won't beat around the bush," "Pierre, I'd like you to stand for election." "Thanks, but I..." "I feel a bit too green to start representing my peers." "Forgive me, but one is never too green." "The new generation need a role-model, a modern criminal lawyer, a chap like you." "We're surrounded by old fossils, we need new blood, damn it!" "I don't know what to say..." "What's going on with your partnership with Karlsson?" "We broke up, I have my own practice now." "Even more reason - once elected you can expand your network, add new clients..." "Seize the moment!" "Be ambitious!" "It's at your age that you have to be put your nuts on the line." "Anyway, between us, you were right to break up with Karlsson." "too many screw-ups." "Though she makes it easy to get carried away." "Well, have a think, call me, and make sure you say 'yes'!" "I'm counting on you." " Thank you, Mr Chairman, and..." " Ah, speak of the devil..." "See you soon, Pierre, I'll be expecting your call." "Excuse me..." "OK, so I'm the invisible woman..." "Why did you want to see Guyot?" " Forget it." " Tell me." "No, I..." "I'd hit the jackpot!" "A young man accused of killing a cop during a driving offence." "He says he didn't do it, that the cops ran over their colleague." "Except some fucker stole the case from me." "Who?" "Tisseron." " Tisseron?" " Yes." "You know him?" "Where's he from?" "Why's Tisseron interested in taking this case?" "Any lawyer would jump on it." "Imagine if it's true?" "Cops killing one of their own?" "Can you picture the mess?" "That's not what I mean." "Tisseron works for the local police." "He normally defends cops." "What's he doing defending a man who wants them dead?" "Ah, there you are." "How you doing?" "The council confirmed they're redoing the quayside." "Last Monday, they towed away three cars blocking the cement mixer." "And?" "So I called the towing company." "One of the cars hasn't been reclaimed." " Let's go." " Sure." " Should you be at work?" " No." " Why don't you want to keep it?" " I knew it!" "You're 40, you might not get pregnant again." "Perfect, I don't want a child." "Especially as I don't know who's the father." "I can't deal with Sami's death." "How am I supposed to cope if I have his kid?" "What if it's Brémont's?" "We split up." "Makes no sense to keep it." "Don't you see this child is a gift?" "What?" "A gift?" "A gift?" "I bleed, I throw up, I've got gut rot." "I don't call that a gift." "Hello." "Sorry." "Sorry." "We're here for the unclaimed vehicle." "It's that one there." "OK." " Can I go?" " Not yet, we need to open it." "Go get a colleague, we need a witness." "OK." " Can you check the number plate?" " Sure." "Tintin, can you check a number plate for me?" "OK, red Peugeot 206." "5-4-8" "M-R-V 7-5" "Sandrine Jaulin." "17 Allée des Trèfles." "La Courneuve." "Tell him to check out the address." "Can you check it out?" "I'll get the IG down to dust for prints." "Go meet Tintin." "So?" " What do we know about the house?" " It looks empty." "Let's call a locksmith." "We'll go over it with a fine- tooth comb." "All clear." "Clear downstairs." "Are you receiving me, Tintin?" "Clear upstairs." " Gilou?" " Yeah?" "There's a second child." "Find the kids' first names, and anything you can on the father." "OK." "I found this bag on a chair in the hall." "The documents are in Sandrine Jaulin's name." "And there's no credit card in the wallet." "Put a trace on the phone, it might help find the father." "Call the estate agent too." "There's nothing in the bedrooms." "No sign of struggle or any mess." "Just these weird drawings." "Mark them as evidence." "Tintin..." "What's this power adapter for?" "A laptop maybe?" " Did you find one upstairs?" " No I didn't, there's nothing." "Mark it as evidence." "The family record says the boy is called Léo, the girl Lucie." "Get them put on the missing persons list." "Get a countrywide circulation." "We might find the little boy is still with his father." "Laure?" "Don't touch anything from now on!" "Everything was washed down, it must have been a bloodbath." "It carries on into the garage." "Looks like the bodies were dragged." "Look, the stains stop here." "The car must have backed up to here and... and the bodies were loaded into the boot." "Yes?" "Thanks." "The river police didn't find any more bodies in the canal." "Can you call the local police?" "Get them to send machinery." "We'll dig up the garden." "Because you think ..?" "Because there's no telling what happened here " "What the fuck's he doing here?" "A gift from him for his best friend." "I preferred it when he couldn't stand me." "Relax, Berthaud." "She hates me, doesn't she?" "Never mind, she'll get over it." "Don't forget to put on shoe covers, sir." "Mr. Lesueur, you were born the 17 September 1992 in Boulogne-Billancourt, and you live at 25 rue Petit in Paris." " Is that right?" " Yes." "Yes, sir." "Mr. Lesueur, I plan to question you on a charge of manslaughter in relation to the death of Officer Lionel Sanchez." "But first I would like to hear your version of events." "What do you have to say?" "If I may, sir" "I need to say that my client wants to withdraw the statements that he made in custody." "Meaning?" "My client admits that he ran down the police officer." "You're no longer accusing an officer of killing his colleague?" "No." "In fact, I..." "I jumped the red light... the police tried to stop me, but I carried on." "Then they got in their car and chased me." "I managed to lose them, but one cut me off on a side street." "And that's when... when I... when I ran him over." "But I swear it wasn't my fault, sir." "You ran over him, but it wasn't your fault?" "No, it wasn't." "I swear." "Your statement has the merit of agreeing with that of the officers who saw the accident." "In your custody statement there is a completely different story." "If I may just say again, sir " "No you may not." "Mr. Lesueur..." "Why did you accuse the police in the first place?" "I'd smoked a joint before taking the wheel." "And it sometimes makes me a bit paranoid, so..." "I was high when they questioned me." "I was talking rubbish." "But you're straight now?" "Er..." "Yes." "I am now." "It's important to clarify." "No, I'm not high at the moment." "So, to sum up, Mr. Lesueur... you admit causing the accident that killed Officer Sanchez while you were being pursued by a police car for refusing to stop?" "Is that right?" "That's right, yes." "So I'd say your client won't keep us very busy." "It's rare to have such a quick confession from the accused." "We shouldn't complain, sir!" "Heavens, no!" " Has the Lesueur case started?" " You've got some nerve!" "Can't you read?" "We're in the middle of the hearing!" "You must warn Mr Roban that Tisseron doesn't care about Lesueur he took the case just to save the skins of the two police officers." "Tell him in writing." "So I go through the traffic light while it's red." "Then I see the police, I don't stop, I speed up." " Then I see them in the mirror " " Mr. Lesueur..." "Can you draw?" "No." "Not really." "Depends what it is." "The street, with the traffic lights, the police location, and the direction of the pursuit." "Is there a problem, sir?" "None at all." "None at all." "So, the street was like that..." "Seek, boy, seek!" "Captain?" "A man and lady are asking for you." "They say they're family." "Want me to go, Berthaud?" "I'd prefer to deal with it myself." "Seek boy!" "We're Sandrine's parents." " Good evening, I'm Captain Berthaud." " Good evening." "What's going on?" "Why are you here?" "There's been a serious incident." "Sandrine and Lucie have died." "We found their bodies in the canal." "I'm so sorry." "We'll get someone to take care of you." "We're looking for Léo and his father, do you know where they are?" "Where does your son-in-law live?" "In some hotel, somewhere." "Do you have his mobile number?" "Has he been living in a hotel for long?" "A couple of months, ever since Sandrine kicked him out." "Why did she kick him out?" "It wasn't working anymore." "But we don't know any more than that." "Sandrine didn't tell us much." "Since they broke up, they've been at war with each other." "When Stéphane took the children out... he'd bring them back late, on purpose." "One time, Sandrine went to the police because he wouldn't bring Léo back." "He only cared about Léo." "He didn't like Lucie." "Did you get my message, sir?" "Did Lesueur change his story to protect the police?" "Just say if I'm wrong and I'll leave you alone." "I can fight defendants who deny the charges they are accused of, but if they admit them, I don't see what I can do." "What do you need?" "An ally." "Pick up the case again and... and help me show that Tisseron wants to save the cops' skins." "Pick it up to defend whom?" "The officer's widow has no lawyer." "I summon her to advise her of her civil rights" "I make sure you get your mitts on her and you get her to appoint you as her lawyer." "I know civil cases are not your bag, but it's all that's left." "For once, the lab's got its finger out and the blood they found in the house is definitely Sandrine's." " It's Sandrine's?" " Yep." "Anyway, the amount of blood found there gives us some idea of what she had to endure." "So it seems she was attacked in the kitchen..." " Can you see OK?" " Yeah yeah." "Let's say you're here, near site no.4 which is at one end of the kitchen counter." "Here, pass that around." "So, then it looks like she was dragged to the basement." "Lots of blood on the steps just there." "And probably then tied to her daughter in the garage and loaded into the boot of the car." "Do we know how the little girl died?" "No we'll get the test results back tomorrow." "What do we have on the father?" "Top marks to the records office." "Two convictions for assault, the last one four months ago," "He worked for a car hire firm, but he was sacked." "He beat up the manager and got a two-month suspended sentence." "Guess who his lawyer was?" " Who?" " Pierre Clément." "And that's not all..." "We found a witness statement made by Sandrine against her husband at the police station at La Courneuve made a fortnight ago because the father wouldn't bring her son back." "She describes him as erratic and violent." "Which a barrage of barmy texts he sent her last week confirms." "About a hundred altogether." ""You're a bitch", "You shouldn't have kids"" ""You'll get what's coming to you"" "Then he says he's sorry, "You're the love of my life"" ""I don't want us to break up"" "Have you tapped his phone?" "He's not switching it on." "He's either thrown it away or he's keeping it turned off." "Roban was right." "A separated couple, a row about a kid that goes bad." "Father goes nuts" "We've got to find him, guys." "Find out what he's done to Léo." "I don't want to miss any chance we have to save the kid's life." " Can I see the diagram?" " You want to have look?" "Hello Mr Ambulance Chaser, did I wake you up?" "How are you?" " Have you moved in with Joséphine?" " Not yet!" "You got me out of bed to talk about my love life?" "No, I need you to help me find someone." "Stéphane Jaulin." "Mean anything to you?" "What do you want from him?" "He's a suspect in a serious crime." "I can't say more than that." "I need a lead, a tip-off, anything." "He's a client, what do you think I'll say?" "You're going to plead client confidentiality?" "Between me and you?" "A kid's in danger." "What kid?" "I can't say any more." "Help us find him and we'll deal with it." "I love you and I'd do anything for you, but I just can't help." "I really can't." "OK." "I had to give it a try." "How you doing?" "Alright?" "There you go!" "What's he doing there?" "Sweetheart?" "Isn't it time to take the kids to school?" "Honey?" "Honey bun?" " Time for school!" " You fucking idiot!" "What the hell you doing here?" "Sleeping here like a prat?" "At least I can get some kip here." "At home there's always one of the twins bawling, or both." "Shouldn't have produced so many." "Jesus..." "Sandrine's card was used to pay for a hotel in Villepinte." "Tell the others." "I said wake up!" "Come on!" " You're a fucking idiot!" " Get a bloody move on!" "JP, Nico, stay in the car park." "Stéphane Jaulin, Studio 413, paid his bill last night." "He's gone?" "I don't know, I've just come on." "Here's the key." " Thanks, is it this way?" " Yes." "411..." "It's at the end." " Ready?" " Ready." "All clear." "You can tell right away it's a guy's room." "The little boy's here." "What you got?" "Who leaves behind 2000 Euros?" "No-one." "Means he's coming back." "Or not." "JP, keep an eye on the car park, Jaulin could turn up any moment." "Guys, we're going back to the station." " We throw everything at it." " Meaning?" "We issue an abduction alert." "I want a massive search involving the press and the public." "He'll get no peace, he'll see his mug and the boy's everywhere." "There's no crime scene, you won't get it." "Why not?" "Because we need a court order to issue an abduction alert." "Well how about you get a court order?" "An abduction alert is a double- edged sword." "If he feels hunted, he might try getting rid of the kid." "True, but it can also save his life." "What are those fuckers doing there?"
