Original subtitles

Who is it?

Tell me!

Nour!

Murdered. We just found her body.

Her wound it made it harder to escape her attacker.

Her death is partly your fault.

- Are you drinking again? - I'm fine.

An officer forgets her gun in a vehicle?

It raises eyebrows.

Nour hit on all the guys, that's why she ended up at the bottom of the lake

She was in contact with a blanket before being immersed.

She had 3000 in savings.

We found nothing.

You're crazy!

You should check out Raphaël.

I saw him rinsing a blanket, it was covered on blood.

People from the village wanted to bring flowers and messages.

Raphaël, we need to talk to you. Come with us, please.

He's had four days to get rid of the blanket.

What do you want?

What exactly are you looking for?

Just doing our job, Mathilde.

Yeah?

I thought your job was to lock up the bad guys.

Your son, for example.

Luca is under court supervision.

No one's protecting him.

Look... can we try to be cooperative?

Easy for you to say.

Mathilde, are you OK? Wait...

Sit down.

Calm down.

Here.

It's OK, I'm fine.

I'm all right.

I need to ask about Raphaël.

OK?

Do I have a choice?

THE ECLIPSE

Excuse me, may I borrow your newspaper?

Gendarme's gun linked to Nour Achour case

Shall we pack up?

We'll type up a report and send it to David.

Are you OK, darling?

Did you sleep well?

Is Daddy in jail

because he was mean to Nour?

No, darling.

Daddy didn't do anything to Nour.

Yes, he was mad with her.

It's only natural that sometimes

mummies and daddies scold children, right?

Yes, bit he gave her a slap.

Really?

Wait, Gaspard.

You mean Daddy hit Nour?

Yes.

Are you sure?

Yes.

When was this?

After the party.

- The night of the eclipse? - Yes.

Do you know why Daddy slapped Nour?

Yes, because Daddy

wanted her money.

What money?

The money hidden under her bed

in a wooden box.

Are you sure, darling?

Yes.

Where were you at 6pm the night of the eclipse?

At Mayé's.

The vet's?

Before or after slapping Nour?

After.

Did Gaspard tell you?

I should have told you

but I didn't want Mathilde to know.

Did you steal Nour's money?

I have debts with Mayé.

He said he'd stop treating my animals.

You know I can't work without a vet.

Mathilde doesn't know?

Not the extent of our debt, no.

You can tell Jean, though.

He'll be delighted.

Your family has crushed me. How often have I been here to complain?

Nothing has ever been proved.

Not proved?

My livestock disappearing?

And the cooperative never having the gear I need?

Open your eyes! They did it to Anthony's parents

to get their land back.

Enough! That's not the point.

You were seen with a bloody blanket the night of the eclipse.

What are you talking about?

It wasn't blood, it was red paint.

Yes. You know, that paint...

the Town Hall used for the fête. It was everywhere.

Your nephew put it all over my car.

I wiped it off with the first thing at hand.

Ask him.

- Where's the blanket? - No idea.

I must have ditched it.

What do you expect?

Talk to Quentin.

Your nephew is a nutcase!

You know what he does? He parks outside our place

and watches us, like a psycho!

Why?

Who knows? Because he's a retard. It turns him on, he wants to spook us.

Why tell us this now?

Maybe to appear even more paranoid.

I can't take anymore.

No comment.

It's still a no. You can tell your colleagues.

It'll save time.

Yeah, whatever.

It never stops. For them, it's a godsend.

It doesn't help us.

We need to talk about it. It's tricky.

I expect Internal Affairs will take me off the case.

Will you tell them?

No, we'll let Archambaut

read the article for himself.

But it shouldn't take long.

What now?

Just so you know, Gaspard's testimony tallies with his father's.

They were at the vet's.

Mayé confirms that Raphaël dropped by at 6pm.

Great. Back to square one.

I need some fresh air.

Dad!

My boy!

How's it going?

I've missed you.

I'm sorry it has to be this way, Mathilde.

Actually... it isn't you I'm mad at.

How about a kick around?

Yeah!

How could you have hit her?

I don't know.

How can you look at me...

every day...

look me in eye...

and lie to me?

Just for 3000 euros?

You think I couldn't see something was wrong?

I wanted to protect us.

Protect us.

Why didn't you tell me?

If you'd told me we were in deep shit,

we could have found a solution.

Or just gone somewhere else, far away!

I know.

Wait... wait!

I didn't want you...

to talk about me the way you talk about Issa.

Pretty good!

Go on, I'll be goalie.

Stay there, I'll fetch it.

Well done, Billy.

Gaspard? Look at this.

Do you know Quentin Germain?

- Yes, he scares me. - Really?

Does he often smoke here at night?

Yes, here.

Even though Billy growls at him.

Really?

Is that little window Nour's bedroom?

Yes.

Has Quentin been here

in recent days?

Not recently, no.

Go play with Billy, I'll be along.

Wait...

You mean Quentin parked himself outside my daughter's window,

smoking and ogling my daughter?

We didn't say that.

We don't know.

Raph?

What?

Quentin was here to see Nour.

Really?

Maybe that's why they argued.

They argued?

Yes, they had a row

maybe ten days ago.

Loane - your family's farm hand - was here too.

She works for you now?

No, she stayed for a few days. She's Nour's friend.

Things aren't good at the Germain's.

Did Nour say why she argued with Quentin?

- She didn't tell me. - Me neither.

I tried to talk to her the day after but she blanked me.

She was upset, Loane left early without saying goodbye.

Why did Loane just take off?

I don't know.

Loane Marquetty, 18.

Ran away from home two years ago.

Started farm work at Bozouls a year ago.

She's an outsider, no social security records.

She weirdly vanished

ten days ago: phone line dead, bank and social media accounts closed.

After that quarrel.

Wait...

So Nour and Loane argue with Quentin Germain.

Next day, Loane vanishes.

Six days later, Nour is found dead?

Quentin?

Wait, my nephew has his faults but he isn't a murderer.

Anyway, we need to find him and interview him.

Hopefully no more bodies turn up.

Tuberculosis outbreak.

We need to vaccinate.

I can't, I'm busy.

You're funny.

Here's a crazy idea.

Why not come down to the shed and see

some real work?

Give me a break, Quentin. I've got my oral exam in three weeks.

"My oral in three weeks"!

The livestock don't give a rat's ass about your graphics studies.

Livestock. It's all you ever think about.

Maybe so.

But right now,

it's the farm and - what is it you say? -

your "cowpat brother" who feeds you.

Quentin!

Manue's here, she wants to see you.

OK, honey?

On eclipse night, you left your stand at 5.30pm. Then what?

Playing the cop now, auntie?

The sooner we can sort this out,

the sooner you'll be left alone

I went to buy booze

at the service station, near Espalion market.

- That's all. - And?

I drank alone and fell asleep in granddad's truck.

But don't tell Mom, she'll be mad.

Wouldn't it have been more fun with the others?

Not really.

I had a calving the night before, I was wrecked.

So I went and drank on my own,

like an asshole,

then fell asleep in Mr Jean Germain's vehicle.

How's that?

There's something else.

What's all this about lurking under Nour's window?

What?

Lurking under Nour's window?

That's OUR road just behind.

It always has been, whatever they say.

Have they scrambled your brains?

OK, the Wilhems are all worked up.

You had a row with Nour?

Loane was there too.

- Yeah. - Yeah?

Nour was busting my balls, I don't know why.

All wound up, like her dad.

All those complaints to the police...

We'd just had enough of it.

"They deliberately stop us using the gear at the cooperative"!

I mean, come on, Auntie.

You know what happened to Loane?

Why do you ask?

You think I went to see her

to say I planned to kill Nour and throw her body in the lake?

- Have you heard from her? - No!

Sorry, hippies aren't my thing.

So you have no idea

where she went?

No.

What Loane loved to do...

was walk her dog along the road.

It's just asking for trouble.

So... Quentin Germain left the celebrations...

at 5.30pm.

About an hour before Nour was attacked.

That's the time-frame we're interested in.

If he bought booze at the service station, it should be on CCTV.

Can you check, Julien?

What about Loane Marquetty?

I've asked around all the local farms. Nothing yet.

Check the morgues and hospitals.

I just had Internal Affairs.

So I'm out?

I'm sorry, Manue.

You were half expecting it. So was she.

All done?

This stays, I love it.

We'll spare it the round trip.

Bye.

I guess you'll be itching to check out your nephew?

No, I don't want to upset our Internal Affairs guys.

Just be careful.

I want you back.

Yes?

I wouldn't mind a hand!

I can't manage.

I hope my car isn't in Gaël's way.

Don't worry, he's on 36-hour shifts. He's never here.

Put it there.

- Against that? - I'll sort it out tomorrow.

Here, help yourself.

Shall we sit here?

Angèle, have you brushed?

Pyjamas too?

- That too! - OK, bedtime!

So you've bought a dishwasher.

The third in six months.

Simon can't bear the noise.

That's a silent model.

With Marcus, it was the buzz from the fridge.

It's only intermittent, but still.

We were right to take them out of the centre.

Do you think?

I'm sure of it.

Marcus has made so much progress. And Simon?

Ups and downs.

How about you?

- Me? - How are you doing?

Do you want to talk about it?

Take your plate, move your stuff.

Don't overdo it.

What happens now you're off the case?

I'm not irreplaceable.

You are a bit.

Don't worry, Johanna is in charge.

Did you know Loane well?

A bit, she's not the type who says much.

- You don't know what happened to her? - How so?

Any idea why she just vanished?

Seems she was friends with Nour. Didn't she say?

No. What's all this about Quentin?

All what?

You were grilling him.

Is he a suspect?

Should he be?

No, come on, Mum, you know Quentin.

I don't know, he talked you into uploading that video, right?

That's irrelevant. He just thought she'd hurt me.

Could you have done that?

I don't know.

Maybe there was something between them.

Such as?

Well, we know they argued.

Quentin can be violent with girls.

I'm not sure what you're getting at.

Was he into Nour?

Are you thirsty?

Thanks.

Maybe a little, at first.

He called her the Parisian to tease her. Typical Quentin.

He doesn't know how to talk to girls.

How did he take you going out with her?

Don't ask me, I've no idea.

I'm not hungry anymore.

It's all I could find.

It's perfect.

We need to thank Ryan.

Here.

I think it's over with Gaël.

What do you mean, "think"?

We're reached the end.

Over as in really over?

Because if there's anything left, you mustn't walk out.

Or I can finally allow myself to live.

I'm a bit scared.

Are you cold? Here.

There you go.

Better?

Easy does it... all done.

Quentin?

What?

Why did Nour stop sleeping over?

What are you on about?

I don't know...

She always made lame excuses.

Did you do something to her?

What's your problem with me?

I know she didn't like you much.

She never said why.

OK, now shut up. Leave me out of your bullshit.

Loane didn't like you either.

Shut up I said, do you hear?

Get it into your smart little head!

Let me go.

Keep your crazy ideas to yourself, OK?!

Let me go!

Just shut it.

What's going on now?

What did you do to her?

Nothing!

She pisses me off!

Did Loane tell her something?

No, she knows nothing.

It's fine, I tell you.

Careful, it's hot.

Thanks.

So?

Well, maybe it's nothing

but just before Nour disappeared, something happened.

I saw Loane with the cattle. She seemed upset.

I asked her what was wrong.

Then I noticed her neck.

It had blue marks on it.

Like she'd been throttled?

Yeah.

Did you ask her?

She said she'd had an accident,

her scarf got caught in the tractor wheels.

Quentin was always messing around

so I figured she'd climbed on.

I asked if it hurt, she said Nour

was taking her to hospital.

Did Nour know what happened?

They were close pals.

Nour loved Loane's free spirit,

so they must have told each other stuff.

Did you ask Nour?

No, she wouldn't talk about it.

Why not?

Loane vanished the following day, without a word.

You've reached Rodez Hospital. Please hold the line...

Manue, I'm sorry, you know I can't tell you that.

I understand.

Did your car registration thing get sorted?

OK, what name?

Loane Marquetty.

Spelled how?

Marquetty Q-U-E-T-T-Y.

She came ten days ago.

Two Ts... Marquetty...

Nothing.

Try Nour Achour.

Let's see, Nour Achour...

Yes, there is something.

She was here May 10, in Traumatology.

Cervical lesions.

I need the case notes.

- When? - Now.

OK, give me a minute.

I'm on my way.

I thought we had nothing to say?

That's not why I'm calling.

Go on.

I've got Loane Marquetty's address. I'll text it to you.

OK.

I have to go, Mom.

Be careful, your dad smashed a plate, I haven't cleared it up yet.

I can't take anymore.

Hey, Mum...

Mum, look at me.

It'll be better once we've sold up.

We can get you some home help.

I'll see to Dad.

So you say it's B.

Let's take a look.

The correct answer!

What does the neologism "eco-anxiety" signify?

It's anxiety linked to environmental threats,

not fear of an empty wallet

or fear of travelling economy class!

Next question.

Annick...

Nina, that's enough... Come here.

Come on, Nina.

We worked hard that day.

He suggested going for a beer, to wind down.

The two of us went out into a field.

Take your time.

Anyway...

he became insistent.

He put his hand on my leg, I pushed it away.

He said: Aren't I good enough for you?

I said: I just don't want to.

He said it would do me good.

Then he pinned me down on the ground.

I started to yell...

and he...

I closed my eyes

and let him do it.

Did you tell Nour about this rape?

Yes.

I didn't trust anyone else.

She offered to put me up till I found work.

So it wasn't really a row with Quentin.

She was just furious.

She said he was a prick and she'd tell the police.

Sorry to ask, Loane...

but why didn't you report him?

Quentin's grandfather offered me 5000 euros.

I didn't do it for the money, I did it to save Nina.

She has cancer.

I paid for surgery.

I know what you think.

No, I'm not judging you, Loane.

Nour was mad at you, right?

Yes, she didn't understand.

So you severed links?

Kind of, to leave it all behind me

and move on.

Why didn't you give evidence when she was murdered?

I was scared I'd end up like her.

I have proof he did it.

These are Loane's things.

Nour kept her clothes after the rape.

Is it usable evidence?

I think so, the bag hasn't been opened.

Send it to the lab,

I'll call them to hurry things along.

Can I let you deal with it?

Thanks.

Captain, my sister says Quentin often buys booze at the service station.

Was she there the night of the eclipse?

No, a new guy works there.

Did you get the CCTV?

So...

It should be around here.

Now where is he?

That isn't him...

Here he is.

So, at 5.35pm, he arrives...

heads into the store...

We don't see any car.

Any other angles?

Not on the car park.

It doesn't tell us much.

And then...

Look, here.

At 5.36pm, he emerges...

heads for the car park... What's he holding?

Car keys I think.

Either he drank in the car,

like he told us, or he left the station.

It's maybe a ten-minute drive to the Cross?

Not even.

Finished... they've all had their dose.

Just pray one of them wasn't already a carrier

otherwise we'll be slaughtering the whole herd.

Those damn badgers infect them.

What the hell's this?

Seat belts, please.

Manue could have said something, right?

She knows her nephew.

Doesn't she know how hard he works?

Does she think he has time to hang out with girls like Nour and Loane?

I don't know.

Yeah, you never know anything.

You're on her side, aren't you?

Of course not.

But Quentin can get carried away.

Like anyone else.

His riding teacher.

Riding teacher? Are you kidding me?

He's hit women before.

No, he'd been drinking. Your son can't hold his drink.

It's always women he gets mad at.

Maybe he has a problem with...

I don't know, some kind of frustration.

Seriously?

Frustration?

I've seen videos on his computer.

Porn videos?

Yeah.

Didn't you watch them as a kid?

Sure... but not like those.

Hi, you've reached Angèle, Leave me a message.

Honey, it's me.

Just to say I'm behind schedule, I'll be home late.

Hope everything's OK.

Take care, don't go to bed late.

Captain, the lab results are in.

Traces of sperm on Loane Marquetty's clothes.

It's Quentin Germain's DNA.

No, I didn't rape her.

She wanted to.

Did she say that?

No, but I could tell.

You know, in the moment.

Why throttle her if she wanted to?

We were messing around.

I thought she liked what we were doing.

She could have said so if she didn't.

- She didn't seem scared? - No.

I thought she was enjoying it, that's all.

It was a misunderstanding.

You think girls like to bleed?

Like having their earrings torn off?

I don't know.

If you were so sure she'd enjoyed it, why buy her silence?

Yep, we know.

Your grandfather withdrew 5000 ten days ago.

What?

No, but...

It's nothing to do with him.

It was my idea.

To stop her reporting you?

I didn't rape her, but she kept giving me shit!

She's a liar!

Let's say you bought her silence.

Once her friend had gone, Nour went back on the attack.

Nour was a fucking hysterical feminist.

She needed a cause.

Girls who have a cause are incorruptible.

Meaning what?

They can't be bought!

She wouldn't shut up.

- So you shut her up. - No!

I wasn't even at the Cross the night of the eclipse.

We'll hold him in custody.

It'll keep him out of trouble for 48 hours.

What about Jean Germain?

Witness interference.

It's enough to put him on probation.

He can sign in with his grandson.

If we charged Cédric and Aurélie we'd have the whole family.

Let's focus on Quentin. Right now, we have nothing.

Nothing to charge him with Nour's murder?

Do you see any material proof?

I'll make a call.

Gaël, it's me.

Yeah, I'm fine.

Look, we need to talk.

Can I drop by tonight?

I know, but this is important. Please.

See you at the hospital?

OK, see you later.

- What are you doing? - Let me in.

Mom will kill me if she catches me.

Go round the back.

Are these family photos?

They were my dad's, his souvenirs.

With his pals, I think.

Cool.

I didn't know you read this.

Have you read the latest?

Are you OK?

No, I'm not.

All this business does my head in.

Quentin is like my brother.

Well, he's no saint.

Even Nour said he was freaky.

Here, we wrote this for the funeral tomorrow.

If you want to see.

Thanks.

Do you miss her?

I don't really...

want to talk about that.

Maybe you should go out with someone else, to forget her.

Are you crazy?

It's been barely a week.

Anyway, no one could appeal to me.

Right... close your eyes.

- What? - Close your eyes!

Why, what are you doing?

Here.

It's an extra-sensory experiment

to bring people you love back to life.

Please.

You're weird.

Come on. Please.

OK.

So Nour is right here.

Yes.

She draws close.

You can feel her breath on your lips.

You can feel her, up close.

What the fuck are you doing?

What is it you want?

Luca... I love you.

What do you mean?

What's your game?

Angèle, please leave.

Get out.

There.

Same for me, Coco.

OK.

Maybe not a good idea.

For fuck's sake.

Here you go.

Thanks.

Well?

Well, we have nothing.

Quentin says he stayed in his car at the service station and fell asleep.

So we don't have anything at all.

Not so strong, Coco.

You're right.

He denies the rape?

Yes.

Denial is a disease in your family.

I told Jean he pushed my dad to suicide. Know what he said?

He said that my dad was depressive.

That his dad was too.

It runs in the family.

You think I turned a blind eye to Quentin?

I'm not inside your head.

But maybe stuff gets repressed.

What are you doing here anyway? I'm going home.

No, I can't let you drive.

- I'll take you. - Stop it.

No way, I'll drive you.

What are you doing? No, stop it!

Don't, I'm taking you!

OK.

Take me to your place, then.
