Better hurry.
Mass is in fifteen minutes.

Maigret?

You decided to show up.

Well, you needn't have bothered.

I can handle things here.

That's not what
you said last night.

Last night, I was upset.

What's happened to Janos?

Good morning, Countess.

Dr Bouchardon, good morning.

I kicked Janos out.

I'm kicking them all out.

I've relied too long
on untrustworthy men.

I... don't include
your father in that.

I'm sorry for what
I said last night.

It wasn't true.

I apologise.

You should go back
to Paris, Maigret.

I'll look after Saint-Fiacre.

Who am I photographing exactly?

Maigret thinks Antoine
Batille's killer might be here.

And where's the boss?

Lucas said he had
to leave town. Personal.

Where's Torrence?

Yeah, I got Antoine's
father his sister.

Looks like we're starting.

He leadeth me
beside the still waters.

He restoreth my soul.

He leadeth me in the paths
of righteousness

for his name's sake.

Yea, though I walk
through the valley

of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil.

For thou art with me, thy rod
and thy staff they comfort me.

Thou preparest a table before me
in the presence of mine enemies,

thou anointest
my head with oil.

Bouchardon!

I'll ask again,
what's the point of this?

Maigret asked for it.

Maigret knows
we have the murderer.

He said so yesterday.
So what are we doing? Anyone?

Look, we need to get
the art thieves back in a room

and put the screws to them.

- "Put the screws to them?"
- Yes! You know what I mean.

Sergeant Lucas, if you
can't get hold of Maigret,

I'll get hold of Kernavel.

We only have these
suspects for so long

and we are wasting time.

It was
a heart attack, Captain Chabot.

She had complained to me
of chest pains,

feeling faint.

I gave her pills
for high blood pressure

and I begged her to go and
get a proper check-up, but...

And her son was
breaking her heart.

This is just tragic!

Lucas.

Boss. We did surveillance
on the funeral.

We got the photos, but we don't
know what to do with them.

Can I see them?

Sure. Where are you?

Saint-Fiacre. Near Montmirail.

What? That's...
That's two hours away.

Boss, we need to work
the Batille case. I...

Do we get the art thieves
back in?

Yes.

Despite this business with
the photographs this morning?

Yes. Keep questioning the gang
and if the media ask questions,

just tell them we're not
looking for anyone else.

Boss...

you're trying to send a message
to someone, aren't you?

Who?

I don't know.

Boss, is there anything
we can do to help?

Yes.

A woman just died.

A woman I came here to help.

I need a hand down here.
Who can you spare?

You can have Janvier and
Lapointe, they're owed time off.

Tell them to meet me at La
Manon Hotel in Saint-Fiacre.

And bring the photos.
Thanks, Lucas.

Madame Jaume?

Can I speak to Ernest?

I was told he was altar boy
at this morning's mass.

He's not here.

I don't know where he is.

Thank you very much.

Hello, Ernest.

What did you give the Countess
in church this morning?

Nothing! Let go of me!

Get off me, you big paedo!

Who gave you this?

Lost something?

They are mine. She didn't
even give me time to pack.

- Where are you gonna go?
- How would I know?

I sacrificed
so much moving here.

And then she was irrational.

The accusations.

She was not a well woman.

I'd stick around if I were you.

Why should I?

Do you want your face
all over the TV?

A lot of people like me
coming after you? Stick around.

Come on, Janos.

What are you doing here?

Having a pee.

You have no jurisdiction here.
I want you to leave.

I am leaving,
but I'm not going away.

Nor should you.

- Torrence.
- Boss, I got a call for you.

He says it's about Batille,
but he'll only talk to you.

Thanks. Er, put him through.

This is Maigret.

Don't bother
to trace the call,

I won't be on long enough.

We're not tracing it.

- Do you know who I am?
- No.

But I know what you did.

Then why do you tell
lies in public?

To get you to call me.

Very clever.

Okay. If you're so clever,
have I killed before?

I don't know.

But can I ask you a question?

Do you remember his face?

Antoine Batille.

You went back and looked at him.

Then stabbed him again.

So... do you remember his face?

Yes.

And does he stop you sleeping?

Better hurry.

Mass is in fifteen minutes.

Can I help you with something?

Chief Inspector Maigret.

Maigret? Are you...?

Was this...?

I am. And this, well,
I suppose it was, once.

Ah! Well!

Come in, please.
Please come in.

Natalie, guess who's here.
Maigret.

Son of Evariste Maigret,
the estate manager before me.

- Madame Gautier.
- Mademoiselle. I'm his daughter.

And bank manager in Montmirail.

That's right. Credit Rurale.

My wife and I separated
some years ago.

She found country life too hard.

- You've made some changes.
- Oh...

The old place was
completely falling apart.

Sadly I had no choice.

I still don't know
why you kept this old table.

I kept it
because it has character.

Character and for continuity.

Dad? Is everything okay?

Er, yes.

Of course.

The, er, Countess...
it's a terrible tragedy.

We're heartbroken.
Poor dear Sophie.

Tell me about Janos Varga.

Oh, well... I'm afraid it's
not a very edifying story.

An attractive man,
a vulnerable older woman.

He took advantage of her?

Well, I wish she'd spent
less on his "art".

But in the scheme of things I
suppose it didn't really matter.

Anyway, I hear he's gone
and good riddance.

You hear? You gave him
a lift half an hour ago.

Where to?

A hotel in Montmirail.

He had nowhere else to go.
I felt sorry for him.

The Countess's son will be here
soon. What will you tell him?

Is that any of your business?

Do you want me
to make it my business?

Look, it's obvious.
The estate is bankrupt.

Things started to go wrong
under your father, I'm afraid.

Don't get me wrong,
he was a decent man but...

out of his depth and...

Well, Sophie trusted him
until it was too late.

I did what I could,
I sold what farms I could

to stem the bleeding, but, er...

What will your advice
to Maurice be?

Sell. He has no choice.

I doubt the sale will
even pay off the overdraft.

I'll do my best to help
him of course.

It's not like he ever showed
much interest in the place.

Again, um, sorry
your visit was so sad.

Have a safe trip back to Paris.

I'm not going back to Paris.
I'm taking this.

What?
It belongs to the estate.

It belongs to my father.

He bought it as a gift for
the Countess's 21st birthday.

- This was his copy.
- Well...

Er... Maigret?

Cavre got a result.

Branchu and Sovran
both made statements

refuting Mila's alibi.

We haven't had a lab report
back on the knife,

but the other evidence
is enough to charge Mila

for Antoine's murder, so...

knowing the thing
that you know

which you are
refusing to share,

should we go ahead and charge?

Yes, but put my name
on the charge sheet.

Cavre will be royally
pissed off.

He's not the only one
who'll be pissed off.

He'll thank me in the long run.

You're playing
a dangerous game, boss.

Janvier, at last.

The game is working,
keep playing it.

My name on the charge sheet,
Mila is the killer.

Ooh, alright for some.

- From Antoine's funeral.
- Thanks.

Can I have one of those, please?

Not yet. I need you to go
to Montmirail town hall.

Ask for the property records,
find out who owns these farms.

Also, when they were bought,
how much for,

and who did the financing.

We've just driven for two hours.

And the office
closes in two hours.

If anyone gives you
any grief tell them

it's a murder investigation.

You can take this.

You can keep it.

- Maigret.
- Sweetheart.

Are you alright?

I'm so sorry about the Countess.

Er...

It was in church,
like my dreams.

She died almost in front of me.

I'm sorry, my love.

But look, about your text,

I dropped in on Helene
because I...

I think you must have misheard
about the Countess' condition.

- What do you mean?
- You wrote high blood pressure.

That's what the doctor said.

But the pills you photographed
were fludrocortisone.

So?

Hi. Fludrocortisone
is for hypotension...

low blood pressure.

If you give this to someone
with high blood pressure

you're just exacerbating
the condition.

So you must have misheard,

because no doctor
would prescribe these.

No. Of course. Thanks, Helene.

Are you coming back or staying?

Staying. A little bit longer.

I saw on the news
you're charging someone

in the boy's murder.

Yes, but not the killer.

He called me.

And?

And I don't know.

He's made contact,
so I'm one step closer to him.

Are you in the right place,
Maigret?

You mean, in my head?

No.

In reality, geography.

You should be here. Paris.

A crime was committed here too.

I rolled the dice,
now I have to follow through.

Okay.

I love you.

Love you too.

I had to go to the morgue
in Montmirail to identify her.

I thought how young she seemed.

But then she was young.

Fifty-two.

Yes.

The same age as my father.

She told me you liked it.
Calvados.

Thank you.

Why are you here?

Your mother called me.

She said she was ill, scared

and surrounded by people
she didn't trust.

I came, but not in time
to help her.

I let her down.

I'm the one who let her down.

And I'm afraid I'm going
to keep on doing it.

I'm going to sell the chateau.

Gautier says I have to.

This place destroyed my mother,
I won't let it destroy me.

I will walk away
without a backwards glance.

I felt the same
when my father died.

That it had killed him.

I left.

I never wanted
to see it again.

Is that why you went
to Paris, the police?

Paris, yes, but not the police.

I went into a black hole
for two years,

drink, drugs, everything else,

like I wanted to flush
Saint-Fiacre out of my system.

What happened?

Well, someone was kind.

Told me to grow up.

Who?

You do what you have to do.

All I will say is Gautier
was not on your mother's side,

and he's not on yours.

But he's not wrong
about how things are.

And what choice do I have?

I have no money, no recourse.

Nothing.

I believe bad things
were done here.

Not just today but for years.

If you're willing to fight,

I can give you the ammunition.

Are you hungry?

Most of the time.

I don't know what we have.

Then let's have a look.

Yep.

Madame Prosecutor.

I think you know that
I'm all about loyalty

and the team.

Yes?

When the leader of that team
absents himself from the work,

but still takes credit for
the results of that work,

isn't one obliged to protest
on behalf of the team?

- You're talking about Maigret?
- Yes.

He insisted on putting
his name on a charge sheet

where he had nothing,
literally nothing,

to do with closing the case.

Plus, by the way, where is he?

Nobody seems to know apart from
maybe Sergeant Lucas and she...

Maigret is in Saint-Fiacre.
An urgent personal matter.

You knew?

Still... it's not right.

It's not... ideal.

I'd like my protest
to go on the record.

He's the Chief Inspector

but he sees fit to swan off
into the middle of nowhere

on some "personal matter"
but still take the credit

for other people's hard work.

And you're 100% confident
in this work?

Yes, Ma'am. We have
built a good case.

Watertight?

As watertight as any case can
be, but lawyers and courts...

Yes.

Thank you, Inspector Cavre.

Thank you, Ma'am.

You're allowed just to
take time off like this?

Disappear from work?

Well, it's a risk I had to take.

Janvier.

Hmm.

You have copies of everything?

Good. See you at the hotel.

The ammunition is
starting to come in.

Tomorrow, you should
request a meeting here.

Invite Gautier, his daughter,
Dr Bouchardon.

- Even Janos Varga.
- No.

Yes.

Tell them you're selling
Saint-Fiacre,

and you want
to thank everyone

for everything they've done
for your mother over the years.

Invite that Gendarmerie
Captain Chabot as well.

Maigret...

I don't understand.

I'll be here
early tomorrow morning

with Janvier and Lapointe.

We'll give you the ammunition,

then you'll understand.

Then you'll be angry.

Saint-André?

Lucas. You're working late.

I think I've got him
on the line.

Put him through.

Thanks, Lucas.

Maigret.

You're right, I haven't slept.

I keep seeing his face.

And when...
when I turned him over...

he looked at me like
I'd come to help him.

Grateful.

And that made you angry.

Yeah. I had to show him
I hadn't come to help.

So I stabbed him again.

Then he knew who I was.

Are you there?

I'm here.

Do you have an answer
to the question:

"Have I killed before?"?

I still don't.

The "stranger death" - that's
the thing you fear the most?

Isn't it?

No connection between
killer and victim?

Yes, we are afraid of that.

So my next victim will be
a stranger and you won't
solve that one either.

You're overlooking one thing:
there is a connection.

Between you and me.

Just because I talk to you
doesn't mean you know me.

You don't know me.

I'm looking at you right now.

You're suffering.

You keep seeing his face.
You can't sleep.

For Christ's sake, boss.

Keep at it.

We've a job to do.

The last of the Lafite.

Come on, Captain Chabot,
you're not on duty.

My mother would be very happy
to see the house full again

with friends and colleagues.

Salut.

But... all good things
must come to an end.

I'm going to take
Monsieur Gautier's advice

and put the chateau
up for sale.

Oh, my dear boy.

I'm so sorry.

Thank you, Dr Bouchardon.

And because you are not just
such good friends to my mother,

but you are also wise
in the ways of the world,

I want to ask what you think.

How much will I get?

Mademoiselle Gautier, our
accounts are held at your bank.

What's our overdraft?

Nearly two million euros,
I'm afraid.

Ha! Ouch.

Um, Gautier, what can we
get for the remaining land?

Oh, well,
it's very hard to estimate.

We'll have to compare
with recent sales.

Alright.

Let's do that.

Middle Farm -
sold five years ago.

300 hectares, about the same
as the land I have left.

What did it go for?

Er, I'm afraid I don't have
the figures in my head.

It sold for 850,000 euros.

That's not good.

Well, you have
to understand the, er,

land values have been declining.

- I could only find one buyer.
- Understood.

But what about the farmhouse,
it was 18th century.

850,000 euros including
the farmhouse.

It was in terrible condition.

Your mother was lucky
to get that much.

Okay.

It was sold 18 months later
for two and half million euros.

Okay. Saint-André.

Much larger, 500 hectares.

Given arable land's
worth 7,000 a hectare,

we must have got,
at least three million?

Saint-André was sold
for 970,000 euros.

Most of the land
was just grazing,

prices were depressed
at the time and...

And you could
only find one buyer.

Yes! I could only
find one buyer.

Look, I can see
what you're doing.

You've brought these people
here, whoever they are...

Saint-André was sold two years
later for 3.5 million euros.

3.5 million.

Some profit.

Who was the lucky buyer?

A limited company
based in Lichtenstein,

Services et
Conseil Rurales, SARL.

The same company also
bought Middle Farm.

Its directors are
Sebastian Gautier

- and Natalie Gautier.
- I don't have to listen to this.

Come on, Natalie.

Bloody ridiculous!

Don't... Hey, get out of
the way! Get out of the...

Captain Chabot,
tell him to get out of the way.

He's a friend of the family,
what can I do?

Shall I summarise, Gautier?

Whenever my mother needed
to sell a property

to keep the estate alive,
you handled the sale.

You sold to yourself for
the lowest possible price,

then sold on a few months
later for a huge profit.

I'm sure when I tried
to sell the chateau,

you would have only found
one buyer for that too -

Services et Conseil Rurales,
Lichtenstein.

Dr Bouchardon,
anything to say?

What can I say?

- I'm shocked.
- It is shocking, isn't it?

But perhaps not as
shocking as prescribing

her the drugs that killed her.

What are you talking about?

My mother suffered
from high blood pressure

but for months you
prescribed her drugs
for low blood pressure,

making a heart attack
more likely,

especially in the event
of a sudden shock.

Rubbish!

I prescribed her drugs according
to the symptoms she told me.

This is a request for
an autopsy to be performed

on Countess Sophie
de Saint-Fiacre

due to the suspicious
circumstances

surrounding her death.

- Don't you dare!
- Agh! Uh!

Janos. I've neglected you,
I'm sorry.

I have nothing to do
with any of this.

This phone was given to Sophie
de Saint-Fiacre yesterday.

It has photos of her of
a sexually graphic nature.

A statement from
Ernest Jaume, altar boy,

saying Janos Varga paid him
100 euros to give the Countess

the phone in church,
and remove it afterwards.

That was the shock
that stopped her heart.

Can you prove it?
I don't know.

But if you check
their call logs,

you'll see they were
all talking to one another,

especially after
they heard that I was coming.

I will examine these
so I can understand

fully what has happened.

I'll tell you what's happened.

I worked, I slaved
to keep this place alive.

You? What did you do
but waste money in Paris?

You're just like your mother,
a parasite,

- living off the sweat of...
- Aaagh!

You saw that?
He assaulted him!

He insulted his mother,
what do you expect?

Do not leave this area or I will
issue warrants for your arrest.

Get off me, I'm alright!

Sorry, sorry, I'm just a bit...

She would have
been proud of you.

Charge sheet for Xavier Mila for
the murder of Antoine Batille.

The lab is not 100%
on Mila's knife?

No DNA. Obviously the killer
would have cleaned it,

but it's a 100% match
for blade and stab depth.

Good.

Well done, Inspector.

Come with me and we'll
inform Monsieur Mila.

Wait, what time
was Batille stabbed?

Between 10:25 and 10:35.

I've been checking the CCTV from
the night Antoine was killed.

Camera on an ATM near the
Basilique de Saint-Denis metro.

Who do you think they are?

That's Mila,
Branchu and Sovran.

This is exactly where Mila
said he was in his alibi.

And, as he also said
in his alibi,

- the other two are with him.
- Mm-hmm.

Maigret asked you to
track the robbers

and you couldn't be bothered.

I'm an Inspector,
it's not my job.

It is your job.

Clearly Mila did not do it.

Is Maigret any closer to
identifying the real killer?

Wait...

They're talking,
but still no ID.

What do you mean,
"they're talking"?

What, he knew all... He knew
it wasn't Mila? He...? He...?

Why would he do that?
Why would he do this?

You've got the degree
in psychology, mate.

Okay,
so what happens next?

Where is the killer?

Here, let me help you.

- Thanks, I can manage.
- No.

No, I... I wanna help you.

Thank you.

What you guys
just did was amazing.

I don't know how
I could ever repay you.

Easy. Invite us
round for a weekend.

- Two weekends.
- Any time you want.

You did a great job of it.

It's me.
I'm starting back.

Couple of hours max.

That's good.

I'm at home now.

Is everything okay?

Yes, um...

You know,
you roll the dice.

I'll see you soon.

I love you.

Love you too.

Antoine Batille's killer is in
my apartment, he has my wife.

Janvier, we'll take your car.

Just a cordon
outside the building.

That's all. Low key.

He's just going to walk
in there?

He says he's a danger to
himself more than anyone else.

No. I'll speak to the Director.

I will not risk lives! There
should be a RAID team in there.

Maigret knows the killer,
he's been talking to him.

He knows the killer
is waiting for him.

Madam Prosecutor, you have
to trust Maigret on this.

I did trust him,
and look where we are!

Okay.

Okay. Low key.

How did you find where we live?

I read that Chief
Inspector Maigret's wife

worked as a psychiatric nurse.

So I called every
hospital in town

and asked to talk to you.

You should have been
a real feminist

and kept your maiden name.

I love my husband.

Having his name
doesn't diminish me.

If you say so.

Are you scared?

Yes.

I've never seen him angry.

I'm wondering
what it will be like.

Janvier?

Janvier. ETA one minute.

Roger that. We're outside.

You've reached Zizou.

You want some breaking news?

- Anything?
- I've just been
on the roof opposite.

They're in the kitchen.
Your wife's at the table.

- She seems okay.
- If Torrence can
see in then so can a sniper.

No. Can I have a radio?

Come in when I say, not before.

Boss, he's got a knife.

In case you need
to blow his head off.

It's Maigret. I'm coming in.

Don't come any closer!

I'm sorry.

- Has he hurt you?
- No.

We've been talking.

Why don't you sit down?

Did you get done
what you needed to?

Yes.

Stop!

You talk to me, not her!

What do you want to talk about?

You disrespected me.

You called me a coward.

I did. I'm sorry.

Well, you underestimated me,
didn't you?

Tell me what you want.

- You don't want to be forgotten.
- What?

Of course.

No. She doesn't know
what she's talking about.

I know the answer
to your question.

Have you killed before?

You have.

But it was a long time ago.

It wasn't planned.

Someone angered you,
or disrespected you.

You stabbed him.

You weren't caught.

You weren't even suspected.

But for months you were
afraid you'd be found out.

You never were.

But eventually,
you began to get angry,

because no one knew
what you'd done,

this incredible thing
that you'd done.

- What had I done?
- Taken a life.

Crossed the line.

Removed yourself from
the community of man.

Torrence,
what's going on down there?

We've got media arriving.
This is not gonna stay low key.

Do what you can,
just keep people back.

Zizou, how the hell
did you find out?

What? One of you lot
called me from La Crim.

One of our lot?

And it's not just me,
everyone's coming.

Who was he?

Guy Dubois.

He was just a guy who went
with a girl I liked,

who I thought liked me.

I found him up by the river
by himself.

I went up to him.

He said, "What's up?"

I slid the knife into him.

He said, "What?" And then
he fell down and I walked away.

How did you feel?

Sick, sick, sick.

I couldn't eat or sleep.

My parents were sure
I was ill.

Then I...
I began to feel different.

You know, I'd done it.
Like, I'd crossed your line.

And you wanted to
feel like that again.

Yeah.

Why Antoine Batille?

I'd spent the day
walking and, er,

looking, you know, just looking.

And, er, I thought
it was never gonna happen.

And then he just walked by,
soaked, happy.

He ordered a crepe.

A crepe!

He was happy and...

I wasn't, so I just...
I stabbed him.

They know I'm here!
I've got to get out of here.

- That won't happen.
- It will, with her.

I'll walk right out. Don't move!

Don't move. I don't want
to go to prison. Keep...

Will you... Will you tell them
that I couldn't help it?

- I was driven to it.
- I can do that.

And you... you work
with crazy people,

you look after crazy people
so just tell them I'm mad, yeah?

Tell them that
I crossed your line.

- Will you tell them?
- No.

Sad and lonely isn't mad,

it's just sad and lonely.

I don't agree with my husband.

You haven't crossed some...
magical line.

He cares about
the pain that you feel.

I care about the pain
that you've caused.

You did terrible things,

not incredible things.

You are responsible.

When you accept that,

you will be able to sleep.

Now, please,

give me the knife.

A gun.

You would've shot me.

Take a seat.

Er, would you like a drink?

Please.

And one for...

I don't know your name.

It's Bercy.

Guillaume Bercy.

Clear to come in.
Door's on the latch.

- Are... Are you okay?
- I'm fine.

We're fine.

Thanks, Andrea.

Will you give
that back to Torrence?

Better drink up, Guillaume.

Will you come visit me
in prison?

I will.

I'm sorry.

You're done.
Find a new team.

You don't tell me what to do.
I out...

Uh! Aaagh!

You're done.

Inspector Cavre has asked
for a transfer out of La Crim.

He says the hostile
work environment

is affecting his mental health.

Honestly, Maigret, he was
two-faced and incompetent.

He's gone.

Two murders solved,
one from 15 years ago.

Three thieves charged
for the attempted theft

of a billionaire's
art collection.

And I saw this morning
that a Monsieur Gautier

and his daughter were
arrested at Charles de Gaulle

trying to board
a flight to Dakar

with more than
five million euros in cash.

So we should be pleased.
Are we?

If it weren't for my wife

we'd be looking at
a very different picture.

How is she?

It must have been traumatic,
to say the least.

We'll take some time off,
if that's okay.

- Go to the country.
- Of course.

Welcome back, Maigret.

- I'm Maurice.
- Louise.

A pleasure.

I tidied up a bit.

I can see.

Thank you.

My mother will be
just down there.

The church will be looked after.

A lot of things
will be looked after.

The chateau's open.
There's drinks waiting,

and something a bit better than
what I offered you last time.

I'll finish up here and
see you there in 20 minutes?

That will be lovely.
Thank you.

Saint-Fiacre.

You've come home.
