Original subtitles

This is nice.

Fred.

You have mail.

Merci.

You could say hello.

A good day starts with a good investigation.

A concern?

No, the judge is ready, Gaelle is ready.

All I have to do is sign and I'm free as a bird.

Did you know that the procedure was in progress?

That's right, what did I expect?

To frolic in the fields again with my wife.

Sign the papers and move on to something else once and for all.

The one thing I'm still good at

that's solving a case that's pretty crisp,

with blood like big red that stains.

And there's nothing to fucking care about.

Wait, I don't get it here.

Murielle Monclair is your ex-partner,

is that it?

We're separated, but what do you want me to say?

I think she still loves me.

Do you believe in love yourself?

What's it all about Borel?

Stefan Jordel received a text message from his ex, she is threatening to kill herself.

And since last night, nothing, unreachable.

He went by her house, rang the bell several times

and no answer.

Are you worried?

Worried, no, but careful.

I'm getting married next week, this is optimistic,

But it's rare to see a man happy within our walls.

Félicitations.

Where is Delambre?

On the field Captain.

There's a crime scene and I'm not told?

So Delambre, are we going hiking without me?

What's the topo?

Melanie Rosares, law student age 23.

She went for a jog yesterday morning, she didn't show up.

It was her boyfriend who told us.

But what do they all have to lose their better halves for?

Where's the dead body?

There is none. Only we found her scarf,

this is presumably where she vanished.

You mean this is a scene of no crime?

There's no dead body.

She wore a pink jogging suit,

if she was around, we'd see her.

What about now?

Come and see. What is it?

What's that?

There, there under your foot?

What's that?

You see, that's a non-starter.

For a non-crime scene, this can be decisive.

This is serious Captain, this is likely a kidnapping.

What I see, me, is one more woman who abandoned her man.

And unless it's an epidemic,

there is nothing alarming.

Yes.

You see, whenever you want, we're coming.

Borel, him, he's got a dead body.

And you call that a corpse?

Yeah, it's all stiff, all hard.

In my opinion, yeah, it's definitely a corpse.

Except that it reeks of suicide.

We left your scene of no crime for nothing.

Did she leave a letter, anything?

Still looking.

Lieutenant.

Come on, we're here, I'll show you a curiosity.

A happy man.

A single toast?

Sorry, I hope I didn't disturb anything by touching the bar.

It's not like this is a crime scene.

Ah no, it's not like it's a crime scene

No ice for me and well packed.

You're aware all the same

that a woman hanged herself in a room next door?

Our story was over months ago.

I had already turned the page.

Will have to give me the recipe,

I wish I were as radical as you.

Her name was Murielle Monclair, right?

And you were in a relationship for how long?

Seven years.

We weren't living together,

but our story was,

how to say, exclusive, harmful even.

It took me a while to figure it out.

If we go by the result,

it's more like your separation that was harmful to her.

So she texted you?

Yes, yesterday at 10:37 p.m.

"I miss you, I can't take it anymore. I want to end my life."

Was that the first time?

Or was she used to this kind of threat.

No, the former.

So far, she was hoping we would get back together.

What changed?

I'm getting married next week to another.

Ben

I'm going to ask you to stay a little longer, just a formality.

Don't worry. So have a drink.

This guy is fascinating.

Calm, relaxed,

in such an abnormal situation.

How does he manage to remain so normal?

Maybe he's relieved that his ex is leaving him alone for good.

That's a bit of a radical way to cut ties.

Don't you think?

He gets a message last night, don't care.

He's still going to report it at the police station this morning.

Don't you think you're looking for the little beast there?

It's never just a suicide.

Error my dear Watson, error.

This is definitely a murder.

What did you find?

The toenails of Murielle Monclair,

of her right foot, specifically.

Is that evidence?

Victim cuts her toenails on her right foot, but not her left foot?

Who would do such a thing before committing suicide?

Her murderer would cut his fingernails.

No, but considering she is cutting her nails,

in her bathrobe after her bath and someone comes in and interrupts her.

Here, it's a good bet that it's her killer and she knew him.

Decidedly, I like this Stefan.

Find out everything you can dig up about him and the victim.

It's fascinating to watch you work.

She claimed that this is where she thought best,

in her bath.

This is probably where she made the decision to end it.

When did you last see her?

Two, three weeks. I didn't want to see her anymore.

She killed herself to make me feel guilty.

I refuse to give her this victory.

Diane, my fiancée would love to be here,

see the cops in action, collecting clues.

She loves thrillers.

Do you want to ask her to stop by?

Better, we'll go see her.

Now?

Yes, suicide is just paperwork.

I leave that to others.

What about my jogger?

Sending her scarf back to the lost and found.

Are you coming?

Please.

Let me out.

I beg you, let me out.

So?

I inspected the basement and nothing suspicious.

Come on, let's seal it up and get going.

Diane is a student of mine,

I am an assistant professor of English in college.

Thanks to her, I found the strength to leave Murielle.

She offered me a new life.

I don't think we're entitled to a new life.

I'm still working on mine.

By the way, why did you come to see us this morning?

I was worried, Murielle's phone was on voicemail.

I was at her house, no answer.

Why PJ? Why not a neighborhood police station?

I thought if she was dead, it was about real police officers.

You knocked on the right door.

Neighborhood cops wouldn't look for the little bugger.

I do, I like to understand.

I'd like you to meet Captain Cain, who is investigating the suicide.

A police officer, I love it.

I've never met a police officer.

Well, except for the ones who were giving tickets.

Do you handle real murders?

When I find some, yes.

When is this wedding?

Only six more days.

Bottom line, being rid of Murielle,

was the best gift we could have given you?

An ex at the ceremony always makes a bit of a mess.

She wasn't invited anyway.

She was not invited anyway.

It takes a hell of a lot of courage.

Mostly great desperation.

Really, I would never have wished for that. I didn't know her.

And you won't have the opportunity to meet her again.

You'll see, this guy has a sense of humor, I love it.

If I understand correctly, no one will miss Murielle

Yes, I confirm.

Very, very British, his humor.

Excuse me, I'll be right back.

She's great, isn't she?

Original, she's so more alive than Murielle.

About Murielle, earlier you were saying she was harmful.

She was a strange, lonely woman.

She hated life together,

but she was also very exclusive.

She cut me off from all my friends.

At heart, I think I knew not much about her.

I understand what you mean.

Sometimes we take up too much space in each other's lives

without even realizing it.

A personal experience?

Murielle was convinced

that my story would not last with Diane,

that I was going to come back to her, that I would never change.

But I want to change, I'm going to try, anyway.

And you want to change what?

Don't worry, get a chance to live a normal life.

The captain is wasting a lot of time.

Me, I need his help

to find the missing jogger.

Where are you at?

We've identified crushed herbs, broken branches.

Me, I think it's traces of a struggle.

If it was removed every minute counts.

We just released her report.

Are there any other disappearances, that would match?

Borel does research.

Bien.

What about that hanging?

The house of Murielle Monclair was found,

nothing corroborates the hypothesis of a murder.

With these fingernail clippings, Cain is leading us right into the wall.

He's temperamental, but we have to admit he's a good cop.

Voilà.

How does it feel then to be hanged?

Is it true that you have a swollen tongue and protruding eyes?

Diane loves horror movies.

Let's just say Murielle would belong in your windows.

What I would rather have,

This is a piece of the hangman's rope

It's said to bring good luck...

By the way,

What were you two doing around 11:00 p.m.?

Why? Do we need an alibi?

It's giant, like in the thrillers.

We were making love.

And it was good?

There have been better, but it was worth it.

Shall we do a reenactment?

No, we won't.

Alors,

About 10:37 p.m.,

you receive a text message where your ex announces her suicide.

And your first reaction is to have sex with your fiancée?

Yes, yes, well no.

I admit I didn't read the text message right away.

I only found out this morning.

Well, there you go, I understand it better that way.

Did you see that woman at the bar?

What next? Are you going to tell me that life is good,

that I'll find another one.

I destroy everything I touch. This divorce I've been looking for.

I can't say otherwise.

On the other hand, you lack lucidity in your investigation,

as if you were making it a personal matter.

I divorce, they marry, I can't help it.

This Stefan guy fascinates me.

He drew such a clean line on his relationship with the victim,

I can't believe it.

It would be too simple if it worked like this.

Fred, we've all gotten in the habit of following your hunches,

but this time, you just five nail clippings

From a right foot.

Do you not believe my nose anymore?

This guy, this Stefan, it takes that one catch he is transparent.

I'm sure he's hiding something from me.

Summon him, cook him and be done with it.

With his little bride,

because she is really smitten.

This is not the right idea.

As long as he thinks I'm buying the suicide thesis, he remains malleable.

If it really was a suicide and you were making your movie.

If you focused instead on the disappearance

of this Melanie Rosares.

I feel like I'm missing something important,

but I don't see what yet.

Captain, this is Elizabeth.

Stunia, give me some good news.

I didn't have time to autopsy your body,

but I took a look, no doubt is allowed, death by hanging.

This does not mean suicide.

Excuse me, I stand corrected suicide by hanging.

You look like hell.

Nightmares all night.

You're right to hang on at work.

Me too, that's what I do when I'm down.

But who told you I was in pain?

The criminal records of Stephan Jordel

and his fiancée Diane Delaunay are completely clean.

On the other hand, I found a handrail

filed against Murielle Monclair.

Don't get too excited.

His neighbor accused him of making his cats disappear.

You're right, I'll give it up.

A suicidal, cat-killer, it's nice though.

I had a dream about your jogger, no way to get her out of my head.

She was still alive and screaming for help.

If you start seeing pink jogging at night,

Captain, we need to consult.

I have listed 36 disappearances in the area in the last two years.

If you remove the men, the children

and presumed missing voluntarily, we are left with two.

That's a bit thin to establish a pattern, isn't it?

Except that in these cases, my captain, we're talking about joggers.

Cyriel Vaujour, 22,

parisienne on vacation in Marseille, disappeared on June 12, 2011,

never returned.

Constance Fornieri, 23,

exit run on May 25, 2012, evaporated into thin air.

Same age brunette, blue eyes.

Same physical type as Melanie Rosares.

So convinced?

Nice job.

Expand the search on previous years.

My non-crime is getting more exciting than a little suicide,

Suddenly, no.

What you can be childish sometimes.

Do you believe in chance, you?

Jamais.

What do you have?

Melanie Rosares was studying in the college where Stefan Jordel teaches English.

What connection can there be between the disappearance of a student

and the suicide of her ex?

We'll ask him.

Say it's in the same place

that marriages and funerals are celebrated.

So, after the reading, you move on

Just pretend we're not here.

No, on the contrary, we need extras to act as witnesses,

they didn't see it coming, come on.

You will join hands for the exchange of vows.

The groom's best man will approach with the rings.

And at what point is the audience asked for the rings,

if anyone wishes to oppose the marriage.

No, it's not done in France.

So you're going to address the bride and tell her-

Objection.

This ceremony is a sham.

Excuse me, I always dreamed of doing this.

Diane, by this ring I make you my -

Objection.

This man has a mistress. He cannot marry this young woman.

Stefan, are you sleeping well with Melanie Rosares?

Yes, she is, at the same time I don't know her any better.

I have 50 people in my lecture hall.

The last time you saw him, when was that?

My last class, Thursday, I think.

Two days before he was taken.

How she was abducted.

On the street, behind a van,

by a large maniac with a knife?

Did you attend the same college, did you know her?

No.

Mr. Jordel,

a suicide and a disappearance in your circle,

we are entitled to ask questions.

I understand that and I am quite ready to help you, poor girl.

But there is no link.

I don't see how there could be one.

Did you fuck him?

That is indeed the only question to ask.

Sorry not even.

I have had sex with one of my students,

it was Diane and I'm going to marry her.

Well, in that case, there's nothing more to stop us from resuming the repetition.

Shall we?

They are disarming.

They are loving more and more in their kind.

Hard to put the blame on Stefan. It doesn't add up.

Neither Diane nor her ex matches

the physical criteria of our missing persons.

So what do we have?

A suicide who may not have killed herself,

A missing person who may not be the only missing person

and a witness who may have been a witness to nothing.

That's a lot of maybe.

Stefan looked really surprised that Melanie was missing,

don't you think?

Yes. He even looked disturbed,

Previously more than by the suicide of his ex.

Diane also in the genre blew my mind. What's with this girl?

This is amazing.

It's like she's completely detached.

from any notion of right and wrong.

Stefan promises to marry a beautiful crazy woman.

So what do we do?

Honestly, I was ready to close this business,

but it's worth digging into.

We have one more lead to go up, the neighbor's cats.

They like you.

They know how to recognize people who give off good vibes.

If we were to return to your neighbor, Murielle Monclair.

She was a pervert completely twisted.

Michel, didn't like her. No wonder she ended up hanging herself.

She will have had a flash of insight.

You had laid a hand against her,

you were accusing her of harming your cats.

She killed them, yes.

How can anyone hurt defenseless animals?

How to be a monster.

Did you have proof?

Did you see her kill them?

Did you think? Too smart?

She was making them disappear,

but I have witnesses.

Princess Mistigri.

Here you are.

Tell the lady what you saw.

You see I wasn't lying.

I won't bother you any longer.

Ah yes, one more thing, the night Murielle Monclair killed herself,

did you see anyone enter her house?

Me, nobody, but Sami did.

He saw a man loitering around the house.

Is it really that cat who told you that?

Cats know everything, he sees everything. You have to trust him Sami.

He rarely lies.

Your wife will be happy, all the bloodstains are gone.

The bloodstains?

Fuck, the pink jogging suit.

What have you done now?

This is annoying all the same.

Weren't you interested in that jogger

and thanks to your stubbornness on the Murielle Monclair case,

the investigation is taking a leap forward,

this pisses me off.

Come on, you're searching all the rooms.

Melanie's jogging and now these.

This was right in front of us.

The sizes are different,

she kept everything even the underwear.

Get them to Borel, have him compare them to the other disappearances.

The one place I couldn't get to.

Is there anything?

No, no nothing false alarm.

I don't see anything wrong.

If, wait.

But tell Lieutenant.

There's like a safe door in the wall.

I am trying to open it.

What kind of door? Describe, describe.

Lieutenant, what is in that trunk?

Send a medical team, quick.

How can you be monstrous enough to build a prison in your own home.

And let her victims die?

We know that Murielle acted alone.

I find that hard to believe.

A female serial killer, it's rare, but it exists.

Suppose she acted alone.

She's not new to this. Her experience, she's broken in.

So, she abducts Melanie around 10 a.m.,

she locks her up, she heads to the dry cleaners to drop off her clothes.

And then, when evening comes.

She takes her bath and she cuts her nails.

What? Overcome with remorse, she commits suicide.

No, I don't believe it for a second, a third person arrives,

her killer hanging her to make it look like suicide.

If this is indeed the goal of saving Melanie, it's a failure.

Or maybe it's Murielle's accomplice.

And he leaves little Melanie in the basement?

We are still missing pieces to the puzzle.

So?

We are doing our best to keep her alive,

but she is completely dehydrated.

She has not suffered any significant abuse,

a blow to her lip, which bled and some binding to her ankles.

Not rape.

We need to talk to her, it's important.

It's mostly impossible, we placed him in an induced coma.

We're not playing Mister Jordel anymore,

obviously, your ex-girlfriend had some original hobbies.

When did you find out?

I don't know, I swear.

This is one of your students,

you must have known about this?

No.

And Murielle wasn't on her game. Did you know that too?

I wasn't living with her.

What about that cell in the basement?

It had to be built, maintained.

I was never going down,

a few times to get a bottle of wine,

that's it.

You spent seven years of your life with her,

seven long years protecting an assassin.

No, you can't say that.

You can live for years with someone without really knowing them.

Still, you must have had your suspicions,

remark something abnormal.

Murielle was able to meet Melanie by picking me up from college,

but it doesn't ring a bell.

She didn't want us to live together, I understand why now.

All those young girls,

but why do this to them?

But help us, Mr. Jordel instead of whining.

Lieutenant.

Don't you see he's lying.

If it turns out, they were accomplices.

No.

All the women of France will revolt

when they learn what happened in that cellar.

You can say goodbye forever, to your pretty little bride.

Well, Lieutenant that's enough.

Leave this room.

Please excuse her.

You don't really believe that I'm involved in this?

Not for one second, I reassure you,

Murielle will really have everything done to ruin life.

She was devious to a point you have no idea.

I'm starting to measure it.

You don't deserve this.

I like you.

Even under these circumstances, I'm glad to have met you.

Me too, Stefan.

When even abducting this girl, having to kill herself.

All for the sole purpose of pissing you off.

To get Diane to start doubting, like your assistant,

To have my marriage annulled, yes.

Yes, she could.

Did your wife leave you? You still wear your wedding ring,

but you keep fiddling with it as if it's in the way.

How far would you go

to keep her from being happy without you?

Not to the point of killing me, however.

Because you are normal like me,

Murial, on the other hand, was not.

Finally, her separation did not dent her flair.

So I was good.

That was a little lacking in conviction, wasn't it?

What?

No, up to all the women in the world will hate you,

starting with your fiancée, there I admit that was well put.

We'll take him into custody and you'll cook me until he confesses.

But why? So far nothing implies it.

What do we have?

We've got a woman who sequestered the victim in her basement and a suicide.

This is not a suicide, you demonstrated that yourself.

It's a fingernail clipping, it doesn't prove anything.

If he's innocent, there's no point in cooking him.

He's a normal guy we'll find nothing but a normal guy.

If he is guilty, he is smart, very smart,

smart enough to last the duration of a police custody.

He's right, we need to understand what happened first.

So what do we do?

We let him go home.

His little fiancée must be worried.

Yes.

Gaëlle.

I wanted to ask you, if I tried to hold you back, would you come back?

No,

Not this time, Fred.

Okay, I was late,

but everyone has their emergencies

and I wasn't going to shove myself for a suicide either.

Now, the circumstances have changed.

You're back on the market, it seems?

Very bad business.

Don't believe her she didn't even try.

Her life may have been exciting.

women's rape, possibly murder,

we'd make a good book and TV reports out of it.

But his death, nothing thrilling.

Broken vertebrae, C4, C5, swollen tongue,

clear signs of death by hanging, from a blow.

Finally, way to talk.

She must have gotten restless throwing, once she was hooked.

And in the event of a murder.

I was told about your nail clippings.

You really have nothing else to do

than to build up theories.

My favorite theory is you, lying naked on this table,

still very much alive and willing.

Does he talk to you like that, too?

Let him try to see.

Theory, fantasy, you're mixing it up.

If he had been hanged under duress, there would be marks on his body.

I would see it.

Nothing gets past me.

Or she too was willing. And that's what I call suicide.

I have something else for you, that woman was a virgin.

She never knew the wolf, not even the tip of a carrot, hymen intact.

If you were planning to make her look like a sex maniac,

you'll have to replay.

Total virgin at 35,

the coroner may have told us that it was a suicide.

But I don't believe it any more than you do.

I like it when you are being unreasonable.

I don't believe in Stefan's guilt anymore.

I can turn him every which way, I still can't find any motive.

On the other hand, his fiancée frappado, she,

I can just imagine him hanging his rival with a broad smile.

It all makes sense, you're misogynistic actually,

you don't like women.

Let's say Diane is guilty,

but I still want to know everything about my Stefan's sex life.

And I am counting on you,

for you to snatch

all the female confidences to the lovely Diane.

I was kicked out of the apartment by Diane,

she's doing the final fittings on her wedding dress.

I'm not allowed to see, they say it's bad luck.

I've been through this at my wedding, it makes them nerdy and superstitious.

Don't mention it.

Here, watch Lieutenant.

You're talking dress and she's all tingly.

I bet you're dying to come up and see this.

A bride is so beautiful and it's my dream.

Is she all white?

Traditionnel.

Can I?

Yes, of course, go ahead.

She'll be glad to have your input.

Thanks, thanks, thanks.

Here, why don't we go get a cup of coffee. We'll talk about something else.

Guy thing. Here, we'll talk sex.

You are unpayable.

I love it, and then it's a blank, blank,

not like those broken whites.

And for the hair, what are you going to do?

This is going to be a surprise Stefan will love.

If this is a surprise,

don't you think he's had his fill lately?

Still finding out he was sharing the life of a monster.

Was she sequestering girls in her home?

Fascinating, isn't it.

Fascinating?

She was still a torturer, maybe a murderer

Yes, she was.

But I have to admit, I've always been excited

by the great criminals and knowing that he knew some up close,

it almost makes me jealous, of him this time.

So I'm off the hook.

I'm personally seeing to it.

We're on familiar terms.

Are you powerless?

Do you have any of these questions?

Certainly not. What makes you think that?

Have you seen Diane? I assure you that with her, you have to have your health.

But still, Murielle seven years without touching her.

How do you know that?

The forensic report,

A cop friend knows everything.

It's true with Murielle nothing ever happened.

Some fondling at first, but she wasn't interested.

She quickly calmed my impulses.

Were you cheating on her?

Not even.

How did you stand?

Sex had become taboo. I didn't think about it anymore.

Did she prefer women?

No.

She thought the sex was dirty.

She understood that for a man it was necessary,

some kind of bestial impulse.

But for women it was beyond his comprehension.

What about you?

The state of my legs makes it a little difficult to spin, but that's okay.

I wasn't thinking about that.

Your wife,

when did she leave?

It's a long story, full of back and forth.

And she didn't leave me, I let her go.

Did you have someone else?

No,

I won't let anyone else bear my part of the shadow.

Because you have a dark side?

Don't you?

I will get married and the past will be forgotten.

But a shadow always kills.

It still hangs on your steps.

That's even what this is for

to constantly remind you that it's there,

that she is a part of you.

What makes you think that with Diane, it will be different?

It's hard to cross off seven years of your life in one month.

It's true, Murielle was always between us.

I imagine that presence you must feel it

when you make love to Stefan?

Curiously, no.

When we make love on the contrary,

It's more like the real Stefan I see, the one only I know.

So how is he?

Don't worry, I left the fiancé at the bistro.

I wanted to admire the bride-to-be.

Do you like it?

I was telling Diane that her dress is top-notch.

And the garter?

We didn't plan to do it.

Yes, it's tradition.

But then, you come to the wedding.

OK, but on one condition. I want to be the best man for Stefan.

I've always dreamed of being a witness.

I usually cook them.

Here, I wish I was on the other side of the fence.

Do you promise not to object?

I promise.

I wish only happiness for my friend Stefan.

And by the way, I want the truth.

As a witness, I have the right.

How many times have you met Murielle?

Jamais.

I don't want my friend Stefan to marry a liar.

Either way, we have the evidence.

Only once.

Ah, so what?

Murielle came to me without warning and she behaved very badly.

She talked like a hysteric.

She said I didn't know Stefan,

that I would never know how to take care of him

and that anyway, he will come back to her.

That must have pissed you off?

You make me want to kill her.

You sure as hell make me want to kill her.

She was like a crazy person she scared me.

I preferred to avoid her and not tell Stefan.

I had finally gotten used to the idea that Stephan was guilty,

but I have to admit that Diane is more convincing.

Diane admitted to meeting Murielle.

A jealous nutcase, standing between her and her marriage.

She goes to her house, she kills her,

she sends a fake suicide text to Stefan, which serves as her alibi,

he covers for her.

Murielle Monclair just passed officially

from kidnapper to serial killer.

Three bodies were exhumed from her backyard.

You wanted bodies? You got them.

This is archaeology your mess.

Your young sergeant nearly turned his eye at least four times.

I think it's safe to say these are the victims,

which I had identified.

The bodies were naked

and the clothes found in the closet match.

So this one would be?

Constance Fornieri, missing on May 25, 2012,the most recent.

Not very fresh.

And here?

Cyriel Vaujour, missing on June 12, 2011.

And finally, Géraldine Dutoit, missing on July 6, 2010 from her home.

What's that now?

No doubt the first attempts of your serial killer.

Cats.

This woman was a monster.

I have something else for you.

I was typing it when the three fats were brought to me.

According to the results of the toxicological analysis,

Murielle Monclair absorbed

a high dose of anti-anxiety medication before her death by hanging.

I did well to fantasize.

The murder thesis becomes scientifically plausible.

Drugged as she was, anyone could have driven her to the brink.

Even a little bit of a woman?

So which one do you think we should get?

The black forest is interesting,

The strawberry patch is perhaps a little more festive.

How about a pièce montée?

There will be one, of course,

but Diane hates nougatine.

Have you ever killed anyone?

How does it feel?

How does it feel?

It's quick, easy, just a moment, but never forgotten.

You should try it and see.

Well, actually, I'd like to.

Why?

We need to feel powerful

with that feeling of having the right to life or death.

Stop. She wouldn't hurt a fly.

That's what you thought of Murielle, too. Right?

Yes it is.

Who could have imagined it?

We change the subject.

She killed herself, no more talk.

Alas, she didn't kill herself.

The coroner's report is definitive,

it is definitely murder.

Is this another one of your bad jokes, say?

I saw her like you did. He hung himself.

But not by herself, she was helped to do it.

How could you possibly know stuff like that?

And then who? Do you have any suspicions?

The truth will eventually come out.

We've made a lot of progress in making the dead talk.

It would just be better if I were the one to find out.

And why?

Because I finally felt

some kind of personal attachment to this case.

Murielle was a real monster.

She will never be punished for her crimes.

It would be a shame if whoever killed her was.

Hello, Cain.

So, it's the big day, not too much stage fright?

If so.

I would like to talk to you before the ceremony,

it's important.

Are you? About what?

Okay, right.

But when?

In half an hour, half an hour at SRPJ. Will that be okay?

Good. All right, all right.

Are you sure you want to talk here?

It was on the way to church.

So, tell me.

Not bad.

Yes, it's okay, it's okay.

Well here, we'll be fine.

You knew, right?

That's right,

she had admitted everything to me.

I was a coward, I wanted to do something to expose her,

this is beyond my strength.

She promised me

that she would not do it again.

And about her, did you know too?

No.

Yet, when we announced her demise,

that you were shown his picture you must have suspected no.

I wanted to reassure myself, I went to Murielle's house,

but you were already there.

This is terrible.

I protected a monster,

- Diane killed him. - You're protecting another monster.

You're about to marry him.

No.

It's not her, it's me.

Murielle had met Diane

and as a threat she told me:

"If you marry her it will be the next one."

I couldn't let her do that.

So you went to her house?

She was in the bathroom.

I told Murielle that she had won, that I was leaving Diane.

So she agreed to have a drink with me.

I prepared the rope, she didn't see anything coming.

It was over.

The SMS?

I sent it.

And when you came to tell me at PJ?

I thought I would definitely rule out suspicion.

I was wrong.

I don't think so.

I think you were already put away by remorse.

You knew this crime would follow you all your life.

You wanted me to catch you.

You are right.

I killed a monster, but it is still a crime.

I'm scared.

To have become like her.

Murielle won, I won't get married.

Yes.

Diane is waiting for you at the church.

I forgot the rings, I'll be back.

What do you think?

I don't believe it. He's blaming himself to protect Diane.

I hate the way they serve me the solution straight up on a platter,

this is hiding something,

and I won't arrest anyone until I find out what.

The bow tie, it doesn't suit you at all.

Rings, please.

Diane, with this ring I make you my bride

and I pledge to honor you

and to cherish you all my life before God.

Stefan, with this ring I make you my husband

and I pledge to honor you

and to cherish you all my life before God.

You may kiss the bride.

Bonjour. Are you a friend of Stefan's?

We are his parents.

They are a beautiful couple, aren't they?

You would have known him as a child, he was so cute.

A cute little monster, I don't doubt it.

I didn't have time to congratulate you.

The wig, the eyes.

Yes, I wanted to give you a surprise.

It's successful.

Stefan always liked brunettes.

But I think you were wrong,

that's because you were blonde

that he was willing to love you differently.

This is the best day of my life.

You too have just passed the rope around your neck.

Decidedly, I like your humor.

You are lying to yourself Stefan

Murielle made you what you are,

and Diane will not let you change.

I can't let you do that.

Lock all exits.

You've probably already noticed me, I'm the groom's best man.

I have only known Stefan and Diane for a short time,

but I've already been able to assess the strength of their love.

Diane is a quirky little woman,

already ready to forgive her husband everything, because that's what marriage is all about,

forgive everything, accept everything.

She finds him perfect,

proving that love is blind,

Stefan, on the other hand, believes that she will change him.

Or, every couple in attendance knows that will never happen.

I met Stefan under dramatic circumstances.

Murial, in her own way, her ex loved her as much as Diane did.

Besides, she was giving him gifts,

not like the ones over there on that table, no sexier gifts.

Her gifts to her, she hid in her basement,

living sex toys for her partner.

I am quite sure that Diane will not resort to such expedients.

And in that sense, I understand the change made in your life,

Stefan, stay like me, cop.

I can't remain the mere witness to this change.

I could have understood the man who killed a monster,

that yes, but not the monster who shared his crimes.

Because the gifts in question cost a lot of money Stéfan.

Very expensive.

In human life.

I didn't kill them, you can trust me Cain.

How was it then?

Murielle would pick them out for you, small brunette, blue eyes,

she would offer them to you, then she would get rid of them.

She must have damn well loved you to make such a sacrifice,

and Diane loves you too.

She convinced you to get rid of Murielle permanently.

Only she's dragging you down the same slope.

Stephan.

And you know it.

Stefan Jordel, you are under arrest.

What do you know, you of Stefan?

One day books will be written about him.

We'll make movies!

He'll be famous.

Murial, she was the monster.

All these women, he loved them.

And today it is me he marries.

Is that clear?

Because I understand him, because I know everything about him.

Because I, I love him the way he is.

Diane don't do that.

But my love, I love you, I love what you did.

We were wrong, my love, we were wrong.

I'm not like that, I'm not like that.

I don't want to do this again. I don't want you to love me for it,

Pardonne-moi.

What a mess.

I asked Borel est to take a new statement from Stephan.

Finally, it was him?

Diane and Murielle, two women who drew him to his dark side.

No matter how hard he tried to hang on, he was fallen and he knew it.

Do you wear your wedding ring anymore?

One out of every two marriages ends in divorce,

the other is until death do you part.

You will never marry Lieutenant.

I can't imagine who would be foolish enough to ask me such a thing.
