PREVIOUSLY

- Abel Guérin has been killed.
- Abel Guérin? The biathlete?

- Who found the body?
- Justine, his sister.

When I arrived, he was on the ground

with blood everywhere.
I couldn't believe it.

Is something going on
between you and Justine Guérin?

Did Abel Guérin have a girlfriend?

Manon, a biathlete in the French team.

Were you meant to meet last night?

He was training late,
so I ate here, with my parents.

A young biathlete at the Olympics

said that she had been a victim
of sexual assault.

- Can you remember her name?
- Amélie Thorens. A Swiss biathlete.

This is Jean Faure,
the French team's shooting coach.

Is it normal for a champion
like Abel Guérin to train alone?

No, I wanted to stay with him,
but the idiot sent me packing.

No, Jean, not you! Tell me you didn't!

Are you stabbing me in the back?
I'll kill you!

Mr. Jean Faure!

You will now be placed in custody.

Jean, I know everything, you bastard.

What exactly do you think you know?

No, Jean, not you!

You didn't! Tell me you didn't!

You've better things to be doing

- than listening to them.
- We're done!

Stop!

Are you going to stab me in the back?

I'm gonna kill you! I'll kill you!

Jeez!

What the hell is this?
Are you spying on me?

So, you confirm that it is your voice?

They're just words.
Words don't mean anything.

They never killed anyone.

"I'll kill you" is pretty extreme.

Why was Abel covered in bruises?

- Why did you beat him?
- He attacked me.

- Like a madman.
- No, stop it. That's enough.

Abel would never attack you
for no reason. It's just not possible.

- You're mistaken, Achille.
- Am I?

You have a recording.

I don't get it. You must have a witness.

Right, so...

Tell us why.

Why did he react like that? Huh?

Next season,
I'm leaving to coach the Norwegian team.

Abel felt like
I was stabbing him in the back.

He attacked me.

I wasn't going to just roll over
and let him beat me to a pulp!

I'm having trouble believing your story.

Abel feeling betrayed
about Norway is one thing,

but wanting
to beat you senseless is another.

You're talking about things
you'll never understand.

You don't know what is at stake.

I made Abel the champion he is.

I picked him up when he was at his lowest.

I kept him afloat!

But you're happy to pack up
and leave him behind.

Yes.

Because it was an offer I couldn't refuse.

Because I wanted a new challenge
and to do something for myself.

It is now or never.

All right.

What did you do afterwards?

I told him I'd think about it.

He finally calmed down,
put on his skis and left.

Was that the last time
you saw him that night?

No, I saw him after training

at the shooting range

with the others.

Everyone was there.

I went over to him

and he took off.

We all want to find whoever did this.

I don't think you understand, Mr. Faure.

You're the one in the firing line.

You were alone at home with no alibi.

What do I have to say to you?

Achille, I didn't kill Abel!

We'll scour your whole life,

every nook and cranny,
and we'll see what we find.

Are you keeping me in?

Martina, if you would?

- How long?
- As long as it takes.

- You can shut up.
- Hold it. Do not tell me to shut up.

Do not tell me to shut up. Understand?

- Are you serious?
- Take him away.

What the hell is going on?

Trace his phone calls
and get a search warrant.

Yes, we're on it.

I'm off to take a shower.

I'll check his story
about the Norwegian team.

Okay. Actually, Lieutenant,

I'm counting on you to stay objective
and keep things in perspective.

Yes.

THE BEST OF US

Wow, those guys are impressive!

And it's all thanks to you.

They asked me to congratulate you
on your top-notch equipment.

So, did you find the killer?

I can't tell you that.
It's top secret, Mr. Bond!

Come on, you...

I won't say a thing!

All right. I'll guess instead.

It's someone he was close to.

Of course it is. I'm an idiot.

Someone close always has a motive.

A crime of passion?

Was sex involved?

I'm getting warmer. Wait!

A sporting rival took him out
of the running.

Of course!

The guy is fit and strong.
A national hero!

People hate that. They get jealous.

I'm so warm, I'm burning up!

Not bad. Seriously, nice deduction.

But I can't say anything.

Do you think I could talk
to some of the officers?

Just to ask a few questions?

I really shouldn't,
but I'll see what I can do.

- I owe you that much.
- Thank you.

Thank you, Edouard.

Someone asked for you late last night.

An older guy,
very serious and bad-tempered.

- Judge Losier?
- Mr. Losier.

Okay, thanks.

- Have a nice day.
- You too.

Is everything all right?

Your Honor? Are you here?

Where are you exactly?

Okay, great. I'm on my way.

All we have are verbal threats.

Jean Faure has no real motive
to kill Abel.

Where are you with the sexual assault
on the young Swiss biathlete?

Nowhere.

I like your honesty.

There is no proof
that Abel assaulted Amélie Thorens.

But is the idea of revenge several years
after the Olympics still an option?

This kind of assault tends to become
more painful over time, so yes.

It is possible.

Amélie Thorens was assaulted,

her claim was hushed up,

and she took matters into her own hands.

But my question is why now?

I can't tell you.

- Did you find her?
- No, her federation is in the dark.

We're waiting for authorization
from the Swiss to geolocate her phone.

What about the family?

We need to question his brother, Benoît.

But apparently, they aren't on good terms.

They haven't spoken for ages.

The mother is pretty toxic.

It must have created a lot
of rivalry and jealousy.

It happens in many families

and having experienced it,
it can be damaging.

Really? You had a toxic mother?

I still do.

Your Honor, won't this ruin your shoes?

I was thinking the same thing.

- Careful.
- Watch your step!

Plus, my feet are freezing.

Despite the snow,
this looks like a nice place.

It's very cold and particularly secretive.

How do you feel about Hugo Grandclément?

Hugo Grandclément... He painted us

the perfect picture
of the biathletes' relationships.

Given Abel was killed
with a biathlon rifle,

you start asking questions.

He's waiting to restart training
at the crime scene. What do you think?

We've been over it with a fine-tooth comb,
so yes, they can start training again.

I'm surprised you came all this way
to pay your last respects to Abel Guérin.

He's a national icon,

and my superiors made
their feelings very clear.

Your Honor,
did you know that in 90% of cases,

the killer returns
to say goodbye to their victim.

You'd be right if this were a film.

Who is that?

His brother, Benoît.

I'm glad you came,

for Mom's sake.

I came for him,

for you,

but not for her.

Sorry.

Mom? Give me two seconds.

Mom?

I've tried calling three times.

Why didn't you answer?

What's wrong?

You usually call three times a day
and suddenly, nothing.

Is Kayla all right?

Stop worrying about your sister.

I'm here. I'm her mother.

I know, Mom, but you know me.
I can't help it.

There are issues with the buses.

The drivers are on strike
because one of them got attacked.

Kayla had to walk to school,
and I'm running two hours late. You know?

You're very quiet.
You don't seem like yourself.

I know, Mom, I'm tired.
I haven't been sleeping much.

Next time, don't wait so long to call me.

I better go.

I love you.

All right. Big kisses!

Love you, Mom.

Bye.

Where is Benoît Guérin?

He left and they're opening it
to the public.

He left?

The international federation
has just announced

that the World Cup will be held
as planned.

We will therefore return to training
in...

unusual conditions.

Without Abel.

In the absence of Jean, Guillaume,
his deputy, will step in.

He has my full backing.

Where is Léna?

Is Jean really in custody?

When I heard, I was as surprised as you.

Surely they can't suspect him of murder?

Let the police do their investigation
and stay out of their way.

We're going to win that cup
in memory of Abel.

We owe him that much.

Right, let's go!

Ski for ten minutes
and meet back here. Off you go.

Where's Léna? I haven't heard from her.

She is sick.

She'll be back when she feels better.

- How sick is she?
- Dr. Pillet is looking after her.

Why won't you tell me?

Listen, Manon...

You have to refocus, okay?

Is there a problem?

No, it's nothing.

A young biathlete had a breakdown,
but it happens.

She just needs some rest.

What is that supposed to mean?

She is fragile and with the pressure
and now Abel's death...

But she'll be fine.

I promise you, Manon, you can trust me.

What is the athlete's name?
Can I see her?

Léna Vallée.
I'd feel better knowing she's okay.

All right. Léna Vallée... I'll pop in.

- Thanks.
- Don't mention it.

Where can I find her?

Don't worry. She's in good hands.

You must have better things to do.

I just want to make sure
that she is all right.

Your team is full of surprises,
Mr. Grandclément.

What are you implying?

A biathlete was murdered
and his coach is in custody.

That's unusual, wouldn't you agree?

She is at the French team's base
beside the training center.

The base. Great, thank you.

Léna?

Yes.

Hello.

I'm Inspector Sissako.

I'm investigating Abel's murder.

Manon was worried. She asked me to come.

I need to call her back,
but I don't feel up to it.

- May I join you?
- Sure.

Were you close with the couple?

I knew Abel better than I did Manon.

When did it happen?

Just after Abel was killed.

Why did you do it, Léna?

I...

I hated myself.

Léna?

You can't go through this alone.

He broke me.

Who are you talking about?

Jean.

Jean Faure?

What did he do to you?

He pushed me up against the wall and...

put his hand between my legs.

And you never told anyone?

Nobody except Abel on that day.

A NEW SUSPECT
MYSTERY SURROUNDS ABEL'S MURDER

Whoa!

This won't do any favors
for your cholesterol, Your Honor.

- It's for my mother.
- Is it? All of it?

What do you have to say
that is so important?

Jean Faure is a sexual predator.

He assaulted a young biathlete,
Léna Vallée,

when she was a minor.

He did it again at the World Cup.

How is this linked to Abel's murder?

Léna told Abel the day he was killed.

So that is why they were fighting?

Yeah, but now I understand
why Abel attacked him.

He went to Jean for an explanation,
Jean fought back,

things got heated and out of hand.
That is our motive.

Well, push on!
I need proof or a confession.

Hold on, Your Honor. I can push on,
but he isn't going to confess easily.

I'll extend custody by 24 hours.
Will that do?

I have to go. Okay?

I have a hearing tomorrow morning.
Do not disturb my sleep tonight.

I trust you.

Your Honor!

Loving the boots.

It's all they had left.

Would you like a drink?

No, thank you.

Come on in.

- I won't bother you for long.
- You're not a bother.

It's a comfort to talk about Abel.

My son admired you greatly.

The feeling was mutual.

I'm preparing a new documentary,

a posthumous tribute

to reveal the man behind the athlete.

Come with me.

Thank you.

Here he is.

In this one, he's barely eight years old.

It was his first competition.

He had a sore stomach.
He didn't want to go.

His father told him to stop being a sissy.

He dried his eyes and competed.

Sorry, may I?

- Yes.
- Thank you.

Abel was always very affectionate.

He never changed.

I didn't go to every competition,

but he would call me afterwards
every single time.

How were things with Manon?

Good.

I don't know
what she'll do with herself now.

That's his father.

He left him his rifle.

It was important to Abel.

I'll fetch it for you.

Thank you.

Let me help you with that.

Thank you.

The wooden butt was hand carved.

- Did Abel still use it?
- Yes.

He changed the breech,

but the trigger is original.

His father's spirit lives on.

How are you?

- I'm fine.
- What are you doing here?

I came to apologize.

What for?

I saw how hurt you were.

You didn't know about Jean and me.

I don't blame you.

How long have you been together?

I wouldn't say we were "together."

We're not exclusive.

So I still have a chance.

Did he say anything about Abel last night?

No, he was pretty down and on edge.

He said he'd find the bastard that did it.

Listen, if you're here to defend him...

No, that's not why I'm here.

I wanted to apologize.

You have always been there
for me and my family.

I don't want to lose you.
I hope we can be friends.

- Thomas.
- Inspector.

Get Jean Faure out of his cell.

Stand up, please.

What now?

After you.

How many were there?

- How many what?
- How many women did you assault?

What is this bullshit?

- Who's accusing me? What for?
- Léna Vallée.

She tried to kill herself.

- Yes, I was aware.
- Do you know why?

Léna has always been fragile.

Well, that's good.

That makes her the perfect prey.

And?

Listen, Mr. Faure,

Pandora's box has been opened.

Tongues will untie
and the testimonies will follow.

It's not looking good!

Aren't we done with this crap?
These fairy tales?

Shouldn't you be looking for a killer?

- Because it isn't you?
- Fuck you!

Sit down, now! She isn't done. Sit down!

When Abel attacked you,

it wasn't about you and the Norwegians.

It was because he found out
that his mentor and loyal friend

had abused Léna under his nose for years.
Yes or no?

No, never ever.

Bring Léna here.
We'll see who is telling the truth.

Indeed we will. I'll go further and say

that Abel made the connection
with the assault on Amélie Thorens.

Amélie Thorens...

At the time, he was blinded

by his admiration for you,
but after Léna's revelations,

he saw the monster you are.

That's why he attacked you, isn't it?

So the dead can talk now?

Abel was far too principled.

You knew he wouldn't let it slide.

Is that why you killed him?

I am innocent.

I want a lawyer.

Of course. You're entitled to one.

Judge Losier extended
your custody for 24 hours.

You'll have time to think things over.

Thomas, please.

I can manage on my own.

Cool it.

Yes, Julian?

We've checked all the biathletes' rifles.

They're all negative.

I'm checking Jean Faure's now.
I'll keep you updated.

Over there.

- Inspector, Lieutenant, hello.
- Hello.

Thank you.

PRIVATE

CRIMINAL IDENTIFICATION

- Hello.
- Hello, Inspector.

- Lieutenant.
- Hello.

- Well?
- So, we checked the register.

Jean Faure owns eight firearms.

None are missing.
They are all here in perfect condition.

He certainly seems to know his stuff.

Just look at this one.

It must be about

12 years old.

Not a scratch.

We're about to try it in the tunnel.

- The tunnel?
- The refrigerated tunnel.

That's where the rifles are tested.

Before carrying out in-depth testing
at the station,

I thought I would start here.

Would you like to watch?

Yes, all right.

Okay.

Why is it so cold?

To simulate actual competition conditions.

Below -18ºC,
the rifle mechanism seizes up.

It freezes and the shot is blocked.

If it happens during a competition,

athletes can and have been disqualified.

What do you do to avoid that?

You can warm up the rifle,
but it's not easy out on the slopes.

Or you can apply a special oil
that stops it seizing up.

- Ready to fire?
- Affirmative.

Can I try?

Sure, but be warned.
When you aren't used to it,

- it can be tricky.
- Okay.

If I ever need a substitute
on the team, I know who to call.

Yeah, my problem is the skiing.

Ready, Lieutenant?

Ready.

- Shot fired.
- Thank you.

As I speak,

I can see the car of Inspector Sissako
and Lieutenant Salvi approaching.

We'll try to ask some questions.

Inspector, has Jean Faure
admitted to Abel Guérin's murder?

Could you tell us if you have proof?

And what is the motive?

Jean Faure is accused of serious crimes
and that is all. Thank you.

People here need answers.

Please! Inspector!

- How's it going?
- Hi.

Fancy coming with me?

No, I'm dead on my feet.
I need a shower and sleep.

That's a shame. I'm recording animals
at the wildlife sanctuary.

Sorry, not this time.
Have a nice afternoon.

Have you ever seen
a Eurasian lynx or Montagu's harrier?

Well, no, I don't think I have.

See one before you die!

I think I have some time
before that happens.

That's what they all say.
Then time passes and regret sets in.

Yeah, you're right.

But, seriously, Edouard,
I'm in no fit state to enjoy it.

Next time!

Fine, but you're missing your chance
to see a lynx. No big deal.

But still, it isn't very fair

because I helped you find
Abel's killer and you...

Come on, your little guilt trip
won't work on me, okay?

So how do we get to this place?

I'll get you a helmet for the snowmobile.

What? Sorry? Snow-what?

Right.

Where did you learn to drive this...?

- Snowmobile?
- Yeah.

In Vaujany.

I don't know it.

I grew up in the suburbs of Grenoble,

and every weekend,
we'd go skiing in this small resort.

I learned to drive a snowmobile
as soon as I could.

It's much cooler for picking up girls.

I see!

Are you trying to pick me up then?

No.

Hold this.

Okay.

Right.

Hello!

- How's it going?
- How are you, Emmanuel?

This is Awa, a friend.

- Welcome.
- Thank you.

I wouldn't have missed this for the world.

Shall we?

- Is that right?
- Yes.

Are you coming?

THANK YOU ABEL

You learn so much watching animals.

Yes...

I saw some photos of Abel Guérin.

Did he come here often?

Yes, a lot.

He loved it. He said it brought him peace.

He's not wrong.

It is very peaceful.

How do things work around here?

We do what we can, mainly with volunteers.

His death won't help things.

- Did he support you financially?
- Yes.

He sponsored the animals.
He was very generous.

He used his fame to help us
and raise awareness.

So, you knew him well?

Yes, I did.

I heard he was a bit on edge recently.

He had his doubts and a lot of questions.

About what?
His relationship? His private life?

His career?

What is this? An interrogation?

No, sorry.

No, I'm Inspector Sissako.

I'm investigating Abel's murder.

- You should have said something.
- You're right.

I should have told you. I'm sorry.

Perfect!

PREOCCUPIED

Yes, okay. I'll talk to Manon
and get back to you.

Well done, Manon, that was great!
You're ready for this!

I've had calls from magazines
to recount Abel's life

and it'd be great
if you could do an interview.

I'm not sure I want to do that.

It is up to us to keep his memory alive.

You can't quit on me.

The best tribute would be to win the cup.
It's what he would've wanted.

Not me posing in some dumb magazines!

Using his fame to get ahead
never bothered you before, did it?

Think about it.

I have.

Great.

Shall I show you out?

There is no need to worry.
Don't make it worse.

Tell me why I'm here.

We'll soon find out. Wait.

Excuse us.

Thank you for your statement, Léna.

Take care of yourself, okay?

- Thank you.
- Goodbye.

Martina, don't leave those two alone
for more than 30 minutes.

- Yes, Inspector.
- How long has it been?

- Five minutes.
- Good. I'll leave this with you.

Lieutenant, did we get the ballistics
for Jean Faure's guns?

It's negative.
It can't be Jean Faure anyway.

What do you mean it can't be him?

We decrypted his phone records.

He received an incoming call
from Justine at 9:22 p.m.

9:22 p.m., so three minutes
before she called the police.

But his phone was in Bar Cenisio,
a checkpoint on the Italian border.

Why the hell was he there?

He wasn't here when the murder took place.

Why didn't that jackass tell us earlier?

For fuck's sake!

Mr. Faure, how did you know
about Abel's death?

"Mr. Faure"? Really?

Am I a stranger to you now?

Justine called me.

When you were questioned previously,
you said you went home after training.

Do you maintain that?

It is true. I went home.

Then I went back out. It wasn't planned.

You were in Bar Cenisio
when Justine called

after finding the body.

Yeah, so?

It proves I didn't kill Abel.

But I already told you that, didn't I?

Why were you at Bar Cenisio?
What were you doing?

Mr. Salvi, that is none of your business.

You were running away
from a very sticky situation.

You knew Abel would report you.

You can invent all the stories you want.

You're clutching at straws, Inspector.

My client has a solid alibi.

I therefore ask for his immediate release.

Of course you would.

I think you are getting ahead of yourself.

A case has been opened
after a statement from Léna Vallée

for rape, sexual harassment and assault

on a minor by a person
in a position of authority.

An examining judge will be appointed
in the next few hours,

and they will decide
what happens to your client.

That bitch.

I object to such a slanderous accusation.

Throughout his career,
he has upheld sporting values,

the respect for oneself and others.

He discovered new talent

and brought their dreams within reach.
He made them champions.

He would never have violated
the dignity of the athletes in his care.

Enough! I hear this bullshit every day.

I'd rather leave you to it.

Men like you make me sick.

My brother is gone.

And Benoît too, but...

Benoît, his younger brother?

Any calls with his brother, Benoît?

No calls or texts.

Achille.

- We didn't dig deep enough.
- Where?

Abel's private life and his family.

We haven't questioned his brother, Benoît.

Benoît lives alone
in the woods with his dogs.

They weren't speaking!

There has to be a reason,
and I want to know what.

Why aren't we questioning Benoît?

- We will.
- Yes, we will.

What about Amélie Thorens?

Amélie Thorens? With what motive?

If she wanted to kill someone,
it'd be Jean Faure, not Abel.

That's true.

Achille, at Abel's house,
he and Manon had separate bedrooms.

That means nothing.

Maybe they had an argument.
All couples have them.

They certainly seemed picture-perfect.

That's just on the outside.

But privately, we don't know what went on.

Maybe Abel was having an affair.

- Or wanted to leave her.
- No.

Manon had a lot to lose.

No, people would know.
You can't keep a secret here.

Maybe, but no one says anything either!

Right, back to work.

- Hello, Manon.
- Hello.

- Is this a bad time?
- Not at all.

- May I come in?
- Of course.

Thanks.

Léna called. She told me about Jean.

I hate myself for not noticing it.

Did he kill Abel?

The investigation is ongoing.

I have to keep things confidential.

Going somewhere?

Just grabbing some things.
I'm staying at my parents'.

I can't stay here on my own.

If I were you, I'd be pretty jealous.

Well, Abel was very popular,

but I'm not a jealous person.

We trusted each other.

What about him?

Was Abel a jealous person?

Why would you ask me that?

I don't know. I...

I saw how you looked
at Benoît at the funeral.

I was just surprised to see him there.

Why did the two brothers fall out?

I don't know. I didn't like
getting involved in their family spats.

Anything else?

No, I just came by to see how you are.

I'll leave you to it.

- Bye.
- Bye.

Sorry, Edouard.
I still haven't hired that car.

Yeah, sure.
You just can't get enough of me.

I should be working,
so we can't get caught.

- I'll cover for you. Don't worry.
- Thanks.

You're free to go.

For now.

The judge will contact your lawyer

for a hearing with Léna Vallée.

Stay away from the athletes

and don't leave Bessans either.

Or you'll have me to deal with.

Careful, get down.

Benoît?

- Do you need any help?
- Yeah.

For fuck's sake. Unbelievable...

Quit messing around!

Who's out there?
