Original subtitles

-He will die.

He will die.

-Gregory?

-He will die.

-What is happening ?

-Dr. Foreman,

He will die.

-Who is that ?

-Lebel,

He will die.

-No.

Thierry is with him.

Go to bed.

Go on !

-He will die.

He will die.

-Thierry, is everything okay with Lebel?

- Yes, I am outside his door.

*Nothing to report.

-You can check ?

-I'll go now.

*Doctor, It's my card... I can't get in.

*Lebel!

Lebel, you ok?

He's not answering.

I went downstairs to get my card. -Me too.

-You received

mail from Alain Lamarck? No kidding ?

-Alain Lamarck wrote mystery novels

under the pseudonym of Erik Ernest. -Attention !

In the meantime, he moved on

to practical work and he killed. -Yes.

-He tells you to open an investigation on an accidental death.

You love puzzles

but this is too big. It's a trap.

-Ah!

-Have you already had a look ?

Astrid?

- Yes, I looked a little bit.

-The man who died

is called Clarence Lebel. There !

On September 5, 2011,

he murdered his boss,

suffocating him with a cushion.

-Why was he interned?

-3 psychiatric experts

agreed, saying

that he had acted under the influence of delusions.

He was found not responsible

then interned at the Esperito Santo Institute.

-Where he died of asphyxiation caused by laryngeal edema.

-Yes. -And what gives

Lamarck the right to question the findings of the incident?

-David Lerivage's autopsy report.

He broke a finger struggling.

The left thumb was broken.

However, in the article, it says that Clarence Lebel was found

with the same fractured finger - the left thumb.

-I see the idea.

Could it be revenge? -Raphaelle,

in an investigation, coincidences do not exist.

-Except that there is no investigation yet.

No prosecutor will open a judicial investigation

with so few elements.

-That being said, Clarence Lebel died in the hospital.

No family came forward. So his body is still lying

at the forensic institute.

RaphaГ«lle, at the IML.

- Fournier? -Yes.

-We should call him ? -Yes.

-Lebel, Lebel, Lebel...

Where did they put him?

Pa, pa, pa. 080... Lebel. Ah!

Lebel: laryngeal oedema.

He was only a step away from cooking.

I can not perform an internal

autopsy without official paperwork.

But the external inspection is a crucial step during which

the enlightened practitioner knows how to discover the criminal origins of death.

-If it is of criminal origin.

-Where do we start,

Miss Nielsen? -The left thumb.

The report states

that he fractured it while struggling during his agony.

-The thumb is broken, yes,

but it's not trying to break free.

We have a clear fracture made towards the exterior.

-So that would be

external action? - Hm!

- That hypothesis cannot be ruled out.

- And on the cause of death?

-I confirm asphyxiation,

but not laryngeal edema. -Really ?

- Edema doesn't do that. -And these traces

on his lips?

-It is common when a victim has strong pressure

on his face.

-Pressure with a pillow filled with feathers.

Call the proc, Coste.

It's murder.

-HM hm.

-Dr Foreman, show us where Clarence Lebel died.

-Lebel was confined to sector 13,

the unit for the most difficult patients.

It is the only secure department of this hospital.

This way.

- Is this really necessary?

-For your safety, yes. A pen can become a weapon.

-OK.

- No bags, ma'am. -Gentle.

-Your bag, ma'am.

- Go on, Astrid.

It won't last long.

It's okay, Astrid.

-Don't touch it.

-This way.

-Stay close to me, Astrid.

-Who is this?

Who is this?

-I came in using my card and there he was, dead.

The room was guarded. So your murder story,

is hard to believe.

- Do you have the history from the cards?

-Yes. -You will pass all this on to me.

Astrid?

Astrid?

There is always something to see at a crime scene.

Who was watching the door? -Thierry, a guardian.

He has been here 20 years. He is beyond reproach.

-M. Keller, you were on duty the night C. Lebel was murdered.

You stood outside the door from 10 p.m. to 4 a.m.

And then you tried to get in.

-That's right. My card didn't work.

I took the elevator and came back 1 minute later

with Dr. Foreman.

-And before that, you were not absent at all?

-Nope.

Nobody entered.

-You know what they say.

When you're the only witness who didn't see anything,

then you are more than a witness. - How could it be me who killed him?

Why would I do that? -You tell me.

-It doesn't make any sense.

Ask the other caregivers in sector 13.

Lebel was difficult but with me, he was doing well.

-The quality of a mystery

in a closed room always depends on the reliability of its witness.

In our case,

it is impossible to know if ours

is reliable.

- The nurse? -Yes.

- He is not guilty.

He doesn't fit the profile to me.

Astrid, I wanted to say...

If we have to go back to Esperito Santo,

you know that you aren't obliged to accompany me.

-I'm sorry, RaphaГ«lle, for not being able to help you.

But when I'm in that place,

my thoughts are blurred.

I'm afraid of getting lost.

I confuse the rooms, the spaces.

I feel trapped in their repetitive architecture

like in a maze.

But if you're with me,

I think I can do it. - So, let's do it like this.

If we go back, I won't let you out of my sight.

Count on me.

I wondered

if Lamarck wasn't taking us for a ride.

- He was right about the murder. -Yes.

But how did he know before everyone else?

- It's quite simple.Just ask him the question.

-Good morning sir.

-Lamarck.

How did you know that Lebel's victim had

broken finger?

The info was never disclosed.

- "If we look for him, he is there. If we find him, he disappears",

in 7 letters and starting with M. -We are not there

to play. -"Mystery".

-"Mystery".

-Are you kidding us? -Astrid, I understand

how you could have defeated

a man of my ability.

-Always so modest.

-"If you know the details of 1,000 crimes, you can

"manage the 1001st."

-Sherlock Holmes.

-Nope.

It's Arthur Conan Doyle.

-Sir Arthur Conan Doyle is the author of Sherlock Holmes.

- But isn't the character the shadow of its creator?

Through the mouth of Sherlock Holmes, Conan Doyle speaks

like Erik Ernest for me.

-Erik Ernest was not one of your characters.

He was your figurehead and you murdered him.

-Conan Doyle also killed Sherlock Holmes.

- Yes, but he didn't exist.

You killed a real person by poisoning him.

-Did it make my books

less interesting to you? I believed it was the opposite.

- We'll stop there, huh?

-What is the first book by Erik Ernest that you read?

-Don't answer, Astrid.

-"The labyrinth". -Sure. The original form

of the mystery novel.

This intersection of paths that look alike

in which the reader wanders

between junctions and dead ends.

- Goodbye, Mr. Lamarck. -Goodbye.

Goodbye. Good...

bye.

-This is not over. -Yes.

We must leave now. We must leave. Thank you.

Goodbye.

-Astrid, explain to me what is happening.

-I untied

the mystery of the closed room. -Oh !

Don't touch it. I believe I know

how the murderer did it.

How he did it -Oh?

-The door.

Open.

There. Thank you. -So ? So ?

How did he do it?

-You have already examined this place.

-You have to go to the floor below, to the 3rd floor.

- Is that your great theory?

A secret hatch between the 3rd

and the 4th? There is no secret passage.

-We can go ?

-She always does that when she sees something.

-The ficus

has been moved.

Do you have your card?

Thank you.

-It is not activated for the 3rd floor.

-(Astrid, I'm not sure I'm following you.)

-The killer had time

to strangle Clarence Lebel in the isolation room on the 4th floor,

because this gentleman

was watching this door.

-Impossible ! -If it's possible.

The elevator buttons have been tampered with

in order to send those who press 4

on the 3rd floor.

On the panel, the screws have been screwed back incorrectly.

Then all the killer had to do was cover up a few details

so that the 2 floors became similar.

13 doors, colors,

the ficus has been moved

to hide the floor number.

And even... Excuse me sir.

Thank you sir.

And even the decorations.

The mystery of the closed room

is now solved.

Now we have to find the killer.

-We found this in the elevator control box.

-It's a hack. It's damn good, but an elevator,

is not that hard to hack. -One only had to push

a button to put it back to normal. We recovered

the hard drive of all access card history.

-And so ? -It's empty.

We sent it to the cyber unit to try to get something off it.

-The floor where the murder took place was

without supervision and the nurse supervised

the wrong door. -The perfect illusion.

As a result, the nurse is removed from the list of suspects.

-The family of the man Lebel killed is out of the question.

His wife and son

live in the United States. - They could have ordered a murder.

-Other people could have taken revenge:

friends, colleagues, relatives.

-It increases the number of suspects.

It's easy to infiltrate an psych unit.

-But sector 13 is a fortress.

There is only one secure entrance. -No one left the building

since the murder. We think the killer is still there.

You impressed me.

With how you entered Sector 13.

It was less difficult.

- You were with me. I was sure not to get lost.

And the prospect

of solving a puzzle took precedence over the rest.

- Is it when Lamarck spoke of the labyrinth that you realised?

-"The Labyrinth" is his 13th novel written under the name of Erik Ernest.

-He could be

putting you on the trail of a solution he already knows.

-Do you think that Alain Lamarck has a link with this murder?

-This guy is a manipulative pervert.

Astrid... - Yes?

-I am not joking.

Take care.

This guy is dangerous. OKAY ?

Oh well !

There are so many.

-These are all the folders

of patients and staff who have access to sector 13.

- Isn't it computerized? -Maybe we'll get there

one day. -It will take us

hours. -Yes.

Hours, Lieutenant Enguien. Hours.

-I can talk to you ?

Tell me more about Lebel.

- A complex personality.

He subjugated others and viewed them as objects.

- He took it out on other patients?

-We have always been vigilant, but we can't be everywhere.

- I will be obliged to question all your patients.

-It's not going to be easy.

Many of them are fragile.

In sector 13, true and false are relative notions

Everyone is here. Very well.

Thank you all for being here today.

Commander Coste and Captain Perran

are with me. -Hello.

-They are investigating following the death of Lebel.

They will help us to see more clearly

what happened with this shocking event.

- We are here to listen to you.

We are not accusing anyone.

We would like to know more.

We are looking for the truth.

-The truth ?

-Hmm?

-I'm happy

that he is dead.

-These words are perhaps a bit strong, Lucie.

-Nope.

Lebel was a monster.

Every time he saw me, he said he was going to rape me.

One day he did.

He came into my room.

I wanted to resist

but he scared me so much.

If Thierry hadn't arrived at that time...

I wanted revenge.

I wanted to destroy him. I hated him so much.

Maybe I did it.

-No !

It was me.

I killed him.

- Gregory, what are you talking about?

-That's why...

I heard him die at night.

It's because I killed him

like dad.

- No, I killed him.

- Liar, I killed him.

-It was me !

-Stay seated. Calm down.

We will sit down

and we will calm down.

Sit down.

-You know what ?

-No.

This weekend, I went skydiving with Emma.

-No! You don't even know how to jump off a diving board

and you jump out of a plane?

I'll have Foreman keep you here.

-You're crazy.

-Hey !

Don't look at me.

It was a bit of a mess, your little interrogation.

- No, we are getting to know you.

-I can tell you something,

but you will not be able to use it, because I will refuse

to testify. -We're listening.

- The caregivers killed Lebel.

Everyone here knows it.

Everyone acts like nothing happened

because everyone is afraid.

-What are they afraid of?

-To suffer the same fate as Lebel.

Don't you understand? This is not a

psychiatric institute.

It's a place where they perform

experiments on people.

I'm here to bring them down.

-Excuse me.

-Eh ? - Oh there!

-You have a cell-phone ?

You know what they do with those? They read

your minds.

Fuck ! You are crazy!

Forget it. Really.

It rang. -OKAY. So I should answer?

-Yes go ahead.

- Yes, Arthur. *-Did you get them to talk?

-Yes, and not just a little. There are 5 accusing each other of the murder.

And are you making progress?

-To find a link between 40 suspects

and a 9-year-old murder? As Astrid would say...

- Too much information affects the readability of the information.

-There you go. She's setting up a crazy ranking system.

*-Okay, and...

Any info on Elysabeth Cuddy?

-Elysabeth Cuddy? Hold on.

Elizabeth Cuddy.

*-Psychotic with paranoid tendencies.

*This is her 4th stay

*there and she burned down

her last building swearing

that it was full of microphones.

-Okay, and...

on GrГ©gory Demaison, what do you have?

*-GrГ©gory Demaison, Astrid?

-Yes.

-Thank you. -You're welcome.

- Interned for hallucinatory

schizophrenia.

Kidnapped by his father

*until the age of 16. He broke free

*by strangling and killing him.

-That's not all. -Wait. Hold the line.

*-According to a report by the institution,

he attacked Lebel 15 days ago.

Following this, Lebel spent

*several days

in the infirmary.

-Not bad eh ? - Yes, it's bad.

-Thank you.

-I'm going...

-Hello, Gregory. I can sit down?

Empty. Sorry.

- The doctor, he doesn't want me to drink coffee.

-My partner says

I drink too much too. She says it's bad for the heart.

- He says that...

the more coffee I drink,

the more voices I hear.

-And what are these voices saying?

-This is my father.

There was an argument.

"He argued with you the night we found Lebel's body?"

- Are you going to arrest me? -No.

Why did you say you killed him?

-Because my father

was Lebel.

Only I recognized him.

He had changed his face, but I recognized him

by his smell.

-They all look alike. -This is Lucie's.

The one who was attacked by Lebel. I intervened

just in time. It could have ended badly.

"The evil flowers".

- That's forbidden.

-Baudelaire is prohibited? -No,

personal property.

-May I ? -Yes.

- Carefull.. the files.

- So, Arthur? -We are moving forward,

but no links that could connect a patient to the murder

of Lebel 9 years ago. -I found

this book in Lucie Graziani's room.

She dog-eared some pages. It's weird, isn't it?

-I can ? -Yes.

-Thank you.

There has to be

an explanation.

With a little time, I can find it.

-I knew it.

- But I need time.

- Anything new on the access card history?

-Not yet.

We're on it now.

-Astrid?

Ah! There !

She does that all the time.

-It's too early for that! -Give her back

her book. -Her psychiatric fragility

requires that she be spared this kind of stimuli.

- My daughter has no place being here. She has no psychiatric issues.

She is autistic.

-It's an infantile psychosis.

She had several seizures. - You took her book.

- What she needs isn't books.

It's treatment.

*-Astrid.

Did our last conversation put you on the right track?

*-You do not have

the right to call me. I'm hanging up.

*-What a shame.

I was going to help you some more. *-I'm putting an end

to this conversation. *-One of Erik Ernest's books

is directly inspired by the murder committed by Lebel.

You are not hanging up?

*Still on the line, Astrid?

I had access to the investigation file. *-That's why you know

about the broken thumb. *-You begin to understand.

*I have discovered information that will be useful to you.

You just need to know which book it is in.

*-M. Lamarck,

there are 146 books written by Erik Ernest, 152 counting

*collections. - You have read them all.

*-Yes.

- So this information is there

*somewhere in your memory.

But where ? Prefrontal, frontal lobe?

Mysterious.

*-M. Lamarck,

which book is it?

- Come see me alone and I'll tell you.

-I have to talk to Commander Coste about it.

*-If you tell her, she might think

that you have been going behind her back.

- You called me.

-It's a question of perspective.

*A question of perspective, as always.

-Astrid, who are you talking to?

-The book.

I've found it.

-Hmm? - You didn't have to look for

a link on the indicated pages,

but in the folds that point to a word.

"I".

"Think".

"HAS".

"You".

And gradually, these words form a sentence.

"I think of you.

"Wait for me in your room tonight at 1 o'clock."

-This book contained a message intended for Lucie.

-Lucie Graziani, yes. -It means

that she was having a relationship, but with whom?

-After the sentence, there are 4 words left.

"Elixir", "ruineux", "ici",

"criniere".

I think it is

a signature. -E.R.I.C.

Eric. -Yes.

-Eric Foreman?

-Yes. Dr Foreman.

-Eric Foreman is having an affair with a patient?

It is strictly prohibited. -So they communicate

with a coded book and that's motive for Foreman.

He wanted to avenge Lucie for his attack.

-Commanding officer.

We have the swipe card history.

A card opened Lebel's room 2 hours before

and it's Foreman's. -It's your turn.

-You can't disturb him.

He is in session.

-M. Forman! -Leave him alone.

Leave him ! Leave him !

-Come on !

-Drop him!

Coward !

Calm down! -Shit !

Is he breathing?

-He's alive.

Foreman underwent

a tracheal operation.

He's not about to speak.

-You surprise me.

-There's something weird in Foreman's

notes during his interview with GrГ©gory.

-See. -There.

- "I smell like his father."

"I smell like his father."

"I smell like his father."

Smell these.

What does it smell like?

-The perfume.

-And that ?

-THE SAME PERFUME. -OKAY.

This is Lebel's T-shirt.

This is Foreman's blouse.

-I don't understand.

-Someone sprayed

Foreman with Lebel's perfume.

GrГ©gory told me that when he attacked Lebel,

with the smell, he had recognized his father.

-He had changed his face, but I recognized him

by his smell.

-GrГ©gory and Lebel's father

had the same scent.

-A perfume that makes GrГ©gory violent, because it brings

his trauma back to the surface

until he attacked Lebel. -Yes.

The killer must have witnessed the scene

and wanted to reproduce it this morning to eliminate Foreman.

-Thank you sir.

-You have the most charming weakness.

One unanswered question and you come running.

-The book you wrote

following the David Lerivage affair is "Le Gibet voyageur".

Nothing in its content refers

to the Lerivage case.

In "La Fracture au point mort", the victim has a broken finger.

That's the only commonality I could find.

In "Spearhead",

a man is committed to escape justice.

But what information could coincide with our case?

- You are fascinating.

Unparalleled sharpness for details invisible to others.

Next to that, total blindness to feelings

and emotions. -HM hm.

-The labyrinth

leads inside oneself, but it's not always pretty.

Are you facing your demons, Miss Nielsen?

-What book is it?

-The maze scares you.

So you stay on the surface.

You dare not come down.

How to be reborn into the light if you won't

don't go to the heart of darkness?

- You don't scare me. -It's what's inside you

that scares you.

Have you spoken to RaphaГ«lle about it?

-These questions are not about the investigation.

-Answer me

and you will have your answer.

-I don't want RaphaГ«lle to think I'm sick.

-There it is.

Here we are.

There it is, your demon.

You are so afraid of not being legit.

-I am qualified. I am useful.

What book is it?

-In "Le Gibet", discovering the murderer is secondary.

The challenge

is to understand why they didn't find him sooner.

-Because the investigators were unaware that the 1st victim

had a mistress.

David Lerivage had a mistress. It is not specified anywhere.

-On the photos,

the closeness with his collaborator is obvious, right?

Astrid.

-Yes ? -You can count on me

to keep our little secret. -What a little secret

are you talking about ? - About this meeting.

RaphaГ«lle must never know about it.

She won't forgive you.

-The door.

-Help me, Lucy.

Who could blame Dr. Foreman?

I mean you no harm.

I just want to know the truth.

-The truth.

-I know about you and Dr. Foreman.

We figured out the code for your book.

You have to talk to me, Lucy.

-Lucy !

Hush, hush, hush, hush!

Calm ! Calm !

-Do not touch.

-The spectators !

Here they are, the spectators.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you. Thank you.

-Don't touch. Don't touch.

- Madam, everything ok?

- My daughter has no place being here. She is autistic.

Laugh. -It is there, your demon.

The maze scares you.

-I'm lost.

I... I...

-Astrid,

I won't let go of you. Count on me.

- Raphaelle.

Raphaelle.

Raphaelle.

-Excuse me. Astrid?

Astrid?

What is happening ?

Oh shit !

A bean, okay.

Breathe.

I'm here. Tell me.

- Laurence Kutner.

She was the colleague of David Lerivage,

the man Clarence Lebel killed

on September 5, 2011.

She was his colleague

and also his mistress.

-OK. How did you find that out?

- I made cross-checks

between the David Lerivage investigation reports

and those of attempted suicide

by Laurence Kutner.

She never recovered from his death, but that's not all.

Laurence Kutner

had a daughter

who was placed in public care

on the death of her mother then in a foster family

whose last name she ended up taking.

Graziani.

- Lucie Graziani. -Yes.

Lucie Graziani.

She is the illegitimate child of David Lerivage.

-OK.

Sorry, Astrid.

I'll be right back. - Raphaelle.

-She's been laughing at us. Open the door!

-It's blocked.

-Lucy ! -Step aside.

-There should never have been an investigation.

- However, there was murder. -Lebel killed my father.

My father's death led to my mother's suicide.

He was responsible

for screwing up my life. - Court decisions

are sometimes unfair. -Nothing in my life has been fair.

That's enough ! That's enough !

That's enough ! That's enough !

That's enough !

That's enough !

It's finished. It's over.

It's finished. It's over. I did what had to be done.

- You didn't have to

to kill him.

-Come here.

Please come closer.

Come.

I was forced.

The voice told me.

Hush!

Hush!

It's over.

It's over.

-The plan had been calibrated to the millimeter for months, years.

-She's faking her mental illness? -It's hard to say.

The experts will decide, but since her arrest,

she is in severe psychotic delirium

and she tried to mutilate herself.

-Yes. If she is pretending,

that's what she blamed

Lebell for.

-When she arrived, she may have been sane.

Her time in Sector 13 may have driven her crazy.

For good.

-When I was 16,

I was expelled from school.

Following this, social services made a report.

I was taken away from daddy

and placed in a mental institution.

There, I was confronted with my 1st labyrinth.

-Astrid!

Astrid!

I promised you that I would get you out of there.

We're going back home.

- You are making a mistake.

-The mazes saved me.

But I got a little lost.

-No.

Look around you.

You conquered this labyrinth a long time ago.

-Raphaelle,

I have to make a confession to you.

I went to jail alone

see Alain Lamarck.

He helped me identify the link

between David Lerivage and Laurence Kutner.

Without him, I would never have made it.

-You did well.

It allowed you to reach the resolution of the investigation.

- Hum! - But you should have told me.

I am your friend and your partner.

I will never judge you.

I trust you.

-Trust,

it's taking a risk.

-That's it.

-Thank you.

-Miss Nielsen? This is for you.

-Listen.

Listen. It's ringing.

*-My dear Astrid,

*I hate to leave without saying goodbye.

- Alain Lamarck. -Lamarck!

*-Commander Coste, what a pleasure!

-M. Lamarck, did you use me to escape?

*-What an idea !

The escape had been planned for a long time

before I met you.

*You made my time in prison delightful.

*What would Moriarty be without Sherlock Holmes?

Thanks to you, I wrote my most beautiful novel.

*-Lamarck!

Shit ! -He hung up.

-What's this ?

-"The Open Room".

-"The Open Room".

A new novel.

A new novel.

HM hm.
