What are you doing?

No, no!

Re-trial Part 2

- I helped myself. Want some? - Please.

Thanks.

You gave me my life back, Gaëlle.

- I just righted a wrong. - A wrong?

For 7 years, some guy has been out drinking coffee instead of me.

I'd love to know who.

Did you really love Annie Hoste?

I hated her for choosing to die

rather than say what we had together.

It's hard to defend what's right if it means betraying someone.

You did.

OK. That's fine.

Thanks, gentlemen.

So? Murder or suicide?

He was alive when he fell. He broke his neck.

As to whether or not he jumped,

science can't answer that.

Just say you don't know.

You want my opinion? David Wilcker killed him.

He should be in prison.

He killed him, like he did Simon 7 years ago.

He'll kill again if you don't stop him.

Can I join the debate?

Do you have something to share, Lieutenant?

Suicide.

Karl Hoste buried his pain for so long.

Our investigation re-awakened his guilt.

- So we pushed him? - No, it's his life.

His bad choices.

The ghost of his wife, Annie Hoste.

Can either of you help me

with some concrete proof?

The choice of place says it all: suicide.

Or murder.

David Wilcker is out and wants vengeance.

You're next on the list.

The exterminating angel.

- Planning on committing suicide? - Not right now.

- Then you've nothing to fear. - I'll take out life insurance.

David Wilcker must be missing prison by now.

Don't harass him.

It'll bring back happy memories.

Fred?

I thought I'd better ring.

What are you doing?

We need to question your protégé about a murder.

Here we go.

You won't be able to hold me by my feet.

Don't tempt me. I might try it.

Have you two finished?

Gaëlle, this is serious. Can we come in?

I won't shed any tears over Karl Hoste.

I heard you'd changed,

but the coldness is still there.

Fred, why are you so stubborn?

I was with him all day yesterday.

Maybe he went out for an hour.

Half an hour.

I'll sign a statement.

Don't lose it this time.

OK, I get it.

Gaëlle, can we go outside to take your statement?

Do you want some coffee?

You're pleased with yourself.

In my house, offering me coffee,

telling my wife you're a victim...

Ex-wife.

Don't worry, there's nothing between us yet.

Not a hint of remorse.

Have you forgotten this house is mine?

You and I know, don't we?

We know why you went after me,

why you lied.

All in.

I can't cover it.

I'll lend you.

No way.

My motorbike.

Lovely bike.

Not enough.

I said "All in".

Let it go, Caïn.

My house.

OK.

You've got your bike.

You've had enough. Go home.

It isn't my home now.

It isn't my home now.

I beat you.

It cost me 7 years.

But I'm still savouring it.

You're mine now.

I don't believe it!

Caïn sold himself for three aces.

I wasn't the same then.

Now it would be a pair?

I knew you were capable of anything.

- You're enjoying this. - It's a comfort.

I feel I'm better than you.

It feels great.

Lucie, I told you all this so you'd help me.

This debt, it's just a piece of paper.

I was going to be commander. It would ruin my career.

Moretti knew about this arrangement?

He gave me a telling-off.

We made sure Wilcker went to prison.

You arranged it?

And you want me to do the same?

We accuse him of killing Karl Hoste and put him away?

No, I believe Gaëlle.

Saint Gaëlle!

- He killed Campanile. - The guilty person is at large.

I need to find out the truth. Together.

We will.

But if you don't like it, I can't help you.

Not this time.

I've something to say.

Jacques Moretti...

Will you marry me?

Tina... You're crazy.

- Is this a joke? - No.

Wait.

I haven't said yes.

Yes, you have.

You will.

You're getting married?

I know it seems...

Hold on. You, Jacques Moretti, my friend, are getting married?

Yes.

To a girl quite a few years younger.

It's not sensible. I shouldn't do it.

I agree.

But who cares?

I want to get up and congratulate you.

I want to be a witness.

I'll be nice to her.

I don't believe that for a second.

Shit!

- Moretti told you about Tina? - Yes.

What was your reaction? It's not that I'm shocked but...

Neither of us are experts in relationships, are we?

I'll be honest: the body isn't saying much.

It's one of those cases

that will be dismissed.

I was right: suicide.

We can trust each other.

I could find things, even if they're not there.

Write a report saying it's murder.

Are you crazy?

Haven't we done enough?

Wilcker killed the man I loved. Do you understand?

Since when do we dispense justice?

There are cops, and scientists like you

who help us to avoid lynchings.

Say something! You've all gone mad.

Gaëlle has made a statement. There's no point.

He'll always find a woman to help him.

He mustn't get away with it.

- The family are here. - We're just finishing.

I promise we will get him.

I'll go and see Gaëlle.

I hope she'll listen to me.

Yes, you do that.

And forget about revenge.

You're all borderline nuts.

- Who was that? - Anna and Jérôme Valérian.

Karl Hoste's sister and brother-in-law.

You're right, Lieutenant:

we'll do it the old way.

Pleased to hear it. What do we do?

I'll treat Wilcker as a normal suspect

and gain his trust.

What about me?

Go through the files, see if we missed anything.

"The old way" meaning sidelining me?

Not what I planned.

I know what you're trying to do. It won't work.

Simon is the only man I've ever loved.

He put up with me, which isn't easy.

And then, overnight...

Nothing.

Emptiness.

Simon wasn't there.

- I understand, it's hard... - No, you don't understand.

The only consolation I had...

was knowing David Wilcker was paying for his crime.

- He didn't kill him. - Yes, he did.

It's here.

Here.

It's something I can feel despite myself.

It's the difference between our living bodies

and the dead bodies I dissect.

- You have to accept it. - Stop protecting him, Gaëlle.

David Wilcker corrupted Simon and killed him, I know it.

You should meet him. He's suffered too.

I want him to suffer more.

I made a promise to Simon, and I'll keep it

if it's the last thing I do.

What did you come to say?

Don't be fooled by David.

Don't be fooled, Gaëlle. Choose sides.

What's it like being out?

What's it like being paralysed?

It's really changed!

I don't recognise Marseille.

Thanks to people like you.

Look up. What do you see?

This neighbourhood was full of families before, full of life.

You'll understand.

FOR SALE

The agent was happy to give me the keys.

There are no clients.

This is the result of your sales.

You're showing me an empty apartment?

It's where we first met.

Suzanne Gilardier's.

You evicted whole families,

pushed up the prices.

Departures, tragedy, deaths...

For what?

To create a supply in the heart of Marseille. They've worked hard.

The problem is there's no demand.

Marseille isn't a rich city.

You and Hoste got it all wrong.

There are hundreds of empty apartments like this.

Why did you bring me here?

To make me cry?

I spent 7 years in prison, wrongly.

I haven't got the money.

And I've got a house...

You want me to help you find the culprit?

Aren't you the culprit?

You still think that?

Hoste knew I was seeing his wife,

he wanted me to pay, that's it.

Do you know Jérôme Valérian?

Karl's brother-in-law.

- And? - They didn't get on.

Karl didn't want him to marry his sister. Why?

I don't know. Go on.

Valérian was a schemer:

Hoste wouldn't help him financially,

so he hung around bars, he did favours

and he stole things.

My God...

- The pickpocket. - Where are you going?

Come on.

This is Valérian's?

Recycling is very trendy.

We're agreed: you keep quiet.

I don't believe it. David Wilcker! How are you?

Fine.

Good to see you.

You look well for a man just out of prison.

You've done OK.

Do you need work?

There are quite a few in your situation here.

We've met. Yesterday, at the morgue.

And before that.

- Is there somewhere we can talk? - Follow me.

Karl never did anything to help me.

Never? Not for his sister?

Not even for his sister?

I like your double act.

The day she married me, we ceased to exist.

I wasn't worth much, but I did OK.

We sell these old clothes by the ton to Africa,

but I'm going global.

I opened my 6th shop for the good stuff.

If you saw what people throw out...

I thought this was a charity.

It serves Benin to buy these clothes.

I give 10 euros per ton to a charity,

so don't lecture me...

Such generosity!

So you're still stealing to fill your own pockets.

Hold on, that's it...

I remember now.

You paid a high price.

How I made you run that day. It's...

Tell us what happened that day.

There's a statute of limitation. What's this about?

We brought you into the station and handed you over

to Lieutenant Campanile.

If you say so.

He should have placed you in custody.

But you were out by 6 o'clock.

That's very precise.

I'm a smooth-talker. He must have felt sorry for me.

He's the cop I'm accused of killing.

I didn't make the connection.

I took the rap. Tell me what happened?

Campanile realised I was linked to Karl Hoste.

He asked if I knew you,

then he apologised and said he didn't want any trouble.

That's it.

- And? - That's it.

I'm indebted to you,

but this is over to you.

Tell me what you know!

You're a cop. Stop him.

- Did you kill him? - You're crazy.

Get off me!

Tell us what you know!

I told the cops at the time.

Which cop? Tell me which cop.

I've nothing to say.

David, let me go or you'll pay for this.

Let me go.

What's going on?

You're letting him go?

- He can tell us more. - Like what?

That you and Hoste had a hold over the cops?

That Campanile was so scared of you he obeyed you?

You planted evidence against me.

Sorry, sorry.

You know I'm innocent. I saw it on your face.

I'll never change my opinion of you.

Leave Gaëlle alone. This doesn't concern her.

What's this story about a cop?

- Do you do any gardening? - I haven't had the time.

You're like an aphid:

those insects you hardly notice, but wherever they go,

they suck the sap out of plants.

And everything withers, dries out.

You contaminate everything, David Wilcker.

An aphid has never killed a cop.

No. But cops have crushed aphids.

Leave Gaëlle alone.

What are you doing, Lucie?

A new lead in the Campanile case.

Who told you to look into that? You just decided to do it?

I had to...

Did a judge ask you to investigate?

I have to cover for Fred, but if you both...

I know you broke rules in the investigation.

What?

We've always been close.

You're the person who hired me.

You trained me.

We know each other.

Is this really bad for you?

I'll rein in Caïn.

We'll defuse the situation with David Wilcker.

Just say the word.

Tell Fred I need to see him. At my place.

He does nothing before speaking to me.

You've always had good whisky.

It swallowed me up for a while.

But you got me out.

We've always been there for each other.

I'd have given you a leg, if I could.

- Not two? - You always push it.

You thought you'd buy me off with a drink?

I went to see Jérôme Valérian today.

He's still as repugnant as his late brother-in-law.

But you know that.

He gets state subsidies for sorting those clothes.

Eco-contributions!

He just takes what's of value.

I sent the tax inspectors round 2 years ago.

We share the same indignation.

But salving your conscience by going over his taxes

means nothing.

Did he kill Campanile?

Yes.

How could you do it?

You knew Wilcker was innocent.

He has other crimes on his conscience.

You're always keeping me in line.

How could you do it?

I can't forgive you.

I did it for you.

Here.

Your IOU.

You knew?

When you let David Wilcker go,

I was suspicious.

Now you can rip it up, burn it or make it into confetti.

We'll forget about it.

- How did you get it? - Best you don't know.

Fred, we're both good cops.

If you're an idiot you put us at risk.

- How did you get it? - Illegal search at Wilcker's.

He can say what he wants, there's no record.

That poker game never happened.

This isn't your style.

Nor is having a millstone round my neck.

Wilcker has nothing on you, we'll bring him down.

Right down.

Your IOU, your dirty tricks...

We were in the shit because of you,

and you were mad about the illegal search at Wilcker's.

I searched,

but it wasn't there.

I had Valérian in my sights.

I'd cross-checked.

I didn't tell you, I couldn't rely on you.

I went to see Karl Hoste.

See?

I'm calm.

What mess are you in now?

What's going on? What is all this?

Shall I tell you what happened the day you were arrested?

Campanile questioned you,

and found out you were part of the Hoste family.

He'd had enough of Wilcker, but he let you go.

He owed Mr Hoste that much.

- You asked why. - And...

Campanile told you he'd pay off his debt to Wilcker

as Mr Hoste had lent him 65,000 euros.

Which angered you.

You won't lend me 200 euros,

and you gave him 65,000!

You followed him to his house.

He wouldn't give you the money. He got out his gun.

You fought

and he ended up dead.

But you took the money.

The money was yours.

You're not going to hand me over, are you, Karl?

Think of your sister. The money is for her.

I'll give you your colleague...

Frédéric Caïn.

Nothing leaves this room.

How did you get this?

I searched David's place before you. I'll give it to you.

But I want guarantees.

The money will be found at David's and you'll arrest him.

- He's innocent. - Please...

Only the four of us will ever know about this.

- Thank you, Karl. - No.

We all benefit.

I'll forget what happened. And so will you.

It never happened.

I invested the money. I'm starting a business.

You've said enough.

Tomorrow, you'll carry out a search at David's.

No-one will doubt his guilt.

How could you agree to it?

And Annie Hoste?

Her suicide?

I'd like to talk to Captain Caïn. I want to make a statement.

He's not here. I can get Captain Moretti.

No, no...

Madam? Can I help?

Karl, I know you'll never forgive me.

I love David,

even though he doesn't love me.

Sorry.

I didn't deserve it.

I'd have dealt with the IOU.

No, you wouldn't.

You wanted to be commander,

and you'd have been better than me,

if you hadn't come off your bike a few months later.

Do you know what's going on?

The commander wants to see us, and Stunia.

We're going to find out the truth, whatever the consequences.

Tina.

It's a shame Borel isn't here.

We're reinvestigating

the murder of Lieutenant Campanile.

Good.

Lucie and Caïn, go and find Jérôme Valérian,

bring him in for questioning.

Tina, get me everything we have on him.

The investigation has advanced, Elisabeth.

As I told the judges, we now know

David Wilcker is innocent.

Jérôme Valérian will be charged with the murder

of Simon and Karl Hoste.

That's not all.

This will be my last case as commander here.

Nobody knows.

Developments in the case

will question what I did 7 years ago.

Jacques, you don't have to do this.

I expect each of you to remain fair...

and impartial.

- We can't do this. - It's an order.

I've been proud...

to work with you all these years.

Let's finish this investigation as we always do: together.

Efficiently.

Jacques...

You can go.

Get to work.

What's going on?

We're arresting Jérôme Valérian.

You promised me Wilcker would go back to prison.

He killed Simon. You know that.

- Eli... - All of this is your fault.

You questioned Annie Hoste, you fixated on an innocent man

and got Jacques into this.

There's one person responsible, Captain. One.

Your turn. Open fire.

There must be a way to sort this.

We know the commander. So he made a mistake.

Moretti knows exactly what he's doing.

You always twist the law.

- We're here to arrest the guilty. - Which is what he didn't do.

And what we will.

- If we arrest Valérian, he's had it. - If we don't, we're no better.

We'll have no ethics.

No point carrying on.

Valérian is a loser. He's not worth it.

If it's an order... I hope he shuts up from now on.

We can't let him escape.

Are you still here? It has to go at 6 PM.

Get on with it. We're really behind.

Mr Valérian!

I'm running late, I'm in the shit. Not now.

Please come with us.

I've told you everything. Is this a joke?

No, we have some questions for you.

We can do that here.

No. You should fetch a jumper.

It could take a while and it's cold at the station.

OK.

Come on, let's go! Move it! Quickly!

Is it about that matter?

You'll be disappointed: I don't remember anything.

Well? No?

I like them.

I'll lock the door. It is my office.

Yes, double-lock it.

You could be away for years.

I don't understand.

Murder of a cop and your brother-in-law.

Let's go.

What about this?

I say.

No, give him a start.

I know him. He's not that fast.

Take it easy. Police!

No-one move!

Sorry. Are you OK?

- Did you alert the airport? - Yes, and the tollbooths.

We've got roadblocks in place.

Happy?

We didn't do it on purpose.

I could have shot him.

That was the solution.

Tina was showing me the roadblocks.

He'll be hard to catch on a motorbike.

He stole one of my wheels. That's a crime.

We must arrest him.

Why are you clowning around? We'll find him.

We get to spend extra time with you.

I'm sick of your tricks.

It's true that on a motorbike...

He's long gone.

Elisabeth?

- Is David here? - No. Come in.

You're right, we need to talk.

Caïn has found the true culprit. I should apologise.

I may yet marry a commander.

I'd be pissed off if you were a civilian.

Don't get too excited.

If I can't get excited with you, what's the point?

You still have respect for me?

- Hello? - Moretti? It's Valérian.

Valérian?

What's up?

The cops are looking for me.

This wasn't part of our deal.

You remember we had a deal?

- No? - I can help.

Where are you?

The one place no-one would look.

You need to think. If I go down, you'll pay dearly.

You won't go down. I'm glad you're safe.

I knew I could count on you.

You're worried about your own arse.

- Do you need money? - Of course I do!

Come on...

Guess where I am.

I don't know.

Your place! Isn't that a great hiding place?

- Your place! - Well done.

Stay there. I'm on my way.

Come alone. OK?

- Tell the others. - No.

Caïn could mess it up.

- I'll go alone. - Arrest him and you lose everything.

I know.

- I have to do it. - I'm coming.

- Tina... - It's an order.

Unbelievable.

And you're the one telling me.

It won't bring Simon back, but you were right.

- Will he be long? - I'll call him.

Don't do that.

But... Elisabeth...

Put the phone down.

Put the phone down.

Sit down.

Go on!

There.

Sit down.

We'll wait here for him.

Could Valérian disappear for good?

He's not the brightest, but he could.

Missing persons.

Just a second.

OK.

Say nothing. I'll handle it.

Stay in the car. Out of sight.

- I'm coming. It's too risky. - No.

I'll talk to him. He's not scared of me.

If I'm not back in 15 minutes, call for help.

Is that meant to reassure me?

I love you too much to lie.

I don't understand. What's going on?

Caïn, Moretti, Lucie...

They're all wrong. All of them.

Elisabeth, please.

Put down the gun. Please.

Gaëlle?

At last.

Why did you get out? Why?

- I'll tell you about prison. - Don't move!

It's what awaits you if you fire.

Did you think about it when you killed Simon?

It wasn't him, Elisabeth.

You know that, or you'd have fired.

Anyone home?

You can just waltz in here.

Ah, there you are, Stunia.

Good. I've got a body for you.

Him.

He's still warm,

but at least we'll know the time of death: 12:23.

I know what I'm doing.

Don't try to stop me, Caïn.

No, I won't.

I've come to see Gaëlle. May I?

There's one thing that bothers me...

There.

What are you doing?

Elisabeth knows I won't shoot her.

Nor will Lucie.

As for you, if she happened to fire,

only Gaëlle would cry over you.

- Will you get over it? - You're insane.

I shouldn't be here.

What do you think, Elisabeth?

You've seen people who shouldn't be in the morgue.

No-one is ever in the right place.

No. Take Wilcker, for example:

he should be in his house, not ours,

his 6m2 house with bars.

Not because he killed Simon. We know that.

But because he's a bastard,

responsible for other deaths, including a child.

- You can't say that. - I just did.

We have to arrest Simon's killer.

He killed Simon.

He contaminates everything he touches.

Think of this other man, Elisabeth,

because he exists.

The man who followed Simon to your home,

who pointed a gun, as you're doing,

and shot him in cold blood.

He exists.

We're on to him.

You want to attend his trial.

Rather than him yours.

Why do you talk so much, Caïn?

You'd miss our little chats.

Come on...

Give me the gun. Please.

- Thanks. - Oh, no. No, no...

Not that.

I'm counting on you not to press charges.

Tell him to leave.

I was right, Fred. Admit it.

No.

I know him better than you.

Did you love each other once?

Lost-property office.

Captain, I went in and he fired.

I couldn't do anything. I fired, but...

It was too late.
