Original subtitles

They raped them!

I didn't do anything!

Tell him what you told me!

Put that down. I know what he did!

I want a confession! Then I'll put my gun down.

Go on!

Police! Stop!

Stop!

Stop!

Damn it!

THE FROZEN DEAD

Chaperon is dead.

I suppose you're here for the fourth person.

Elisabeth.

First, you do me a favour...

..then I'll give you a name.

I'm listening.

I want Diane Berg reinstated.

That's not possible.

When I asked you to get her hired,

you didn't think you'd be able to convince Levasseur.

I'm sure you'll find a way to stop her getting fired.

He's already told the board of directors.

The meeting's tomorrow. It's too late.

Well, try to get her to come here one last time...

..and you'll have the fourth name.

This is becoming tedious.

We need to stop arriving once the action's over.

This time we were here and the prick took off.

Weren't you on sick leave?

Vincent had to leave so I asked Irène to come back.

Are you sure you're fit to work?

Yeah. She was on fire.

I'm asking you.

Yes, I'm sure.

-Revelli to Captain Ziegler. -Go ahead, Chief.

Same as last time.

The snowmobile was towed away.

We've got large tyre tracks and footprints.

Two individuals.

OK. I'll send you a CSI team.

Roger that, Captain.

Luckily, Irène got him. He lost blood, we're going to run tests.

A third death.

And none other than the mayor.

Thanks, Martin.

Next time you lie to me...

It won't happen again.

Promise.

WHERE ARE YOU? WE NEED TO TALK.

I was worried. I was starting to miss you.

The feeling doesn't seem mutual.

If you're here, I assume that you've come to a dead end?

You knew that Chaperon, Garaudy and Perrot were rapists

back when you were on the suicide case.

What? You think I covered for them?

You buried the Lemaître case.

Yes, but that was different. He's a judge.

That could come in handy.

But why would I protect those monsters?

You tell me.

Maybe some sick solidarity amongst you, I don't know.

I don't remember you being so...

..harsh.

Remember Sandra Belleto?

I remember you killed her.

Oh, Martin. Come on.

You may never understand this, but I didn't kill Sandra.

She wanted to die, I helped her, that's all.

Why are you bringing her up?

A social worker sent her to see me.

Sandra was a petty thief,

didn't trust anybody, a real lout.

She realised she could trust me,

so she ended up telling me that she'd been raped,

cruelly beaten up

and left for dead.

Then she told me that she knew her assailants.

So, I realised I'd screwed up a few years earlier

in the suicide case.

I stupidly believed the investigators' conclusions

and Garaudy's positive character witness statements.

Why didn't you say anything?

Martin.

My relationship with Sandra had evolved,

why dredge up the case again?

If these guys were serial rapists,

the people killing them

aren't necessarily avenging the three teen suicides.

What do you want?

-What do you want in exchange... -For the identity of the killers?

The sooner you have that, the sooner you'll leave.

I'd like to keep you here with me a little longer.

Have you heard about Hélène?

No.

-She didn't tell you? -What?

Well, they know who she is. They're going to fire her.

I don't understand your relationship with her, it's unhealthy.

If you say so.

Have you still not told her that Fabienne died because of you?

How can you deprive her of the truth after depriving her of her sister?

Don't reverse the roles.

There's only one murderer in this story.

Yes?

I'm on my way.

Why didn't we find this during the search?

It was under some furniture. I only saw it when I moved it.

It was behind there.

He'd loosened the boards

and the tapes were under the parquet.

Did you really not know anything about this place?

Don't you think I would have called if I'd have known?

His office was "off limits" as he used to say.

The video recorder ejects these two tapes,

but this one works.

I'll let you watch it.

What's your name?

Fanny.

Oh, Fanny.

What about you?

-Your name! -Léo!

You OK? And you? What's your name? What?

Alice. My name's Alice!

Welcome to Wonderland, Alice.

Thank you.

You'll be called in.

Oh, Fanny. What about you?

-Your name! -Léo.

You OK? And you? What's your name?

What?

Alice. My name's Alice!

Welcome to Wonderland, Alice.

You OK?

That's why they killed themselves.

Or maybe they were killed.

Those guys are predators,

murderers...

Attacking isn't enough,

what they want are trophies.

And this...

This is a trophy!

They get off on taking risks,

but they're smart and powerful enough to not get caught.

There you have it.

We need to check whether the girls

were wearing the same clothes when they were found hanging.

Irène.

I'm on it.

I saw Hirtmann.

They got to at least one other teenager and I'm sure it doesn't end there.

So, this means we're up to how many suspects?

And we're not even close to a clue.

Go see if Lucas can fix the damaged tapes.

What are we going to do with Alice's dad?

Let him go.

What about a tart of hair?

Blimey!

Did you cover this tart in meringue?

Blimey!

Did you cover this tart in meringue?

Stop filming me!

Stop it, goddammit.

Stop, enough already!

If I catch you, I'll screw you up the arse.

Are you sure?

It's definitely the same place.

What's going on?

Did Perrot and Chaperon come round yours often?

Sorry?

We have a video of them here on New Year's Eve

and Garaudy's holding the camera.

-Were they friends of your father? -No. He just knew them.

-But this is your dad's farm? -Yes.

Can we see it?

My dad's paralysed on one side. His condition's worsened recently.

I'd rather you leave him be.

Either we come in or we get a warrant. Simple.

Dad.

That's not the guy in the video.

-Some people want to talk to you. -Good evening.

Captain Servaz, Criminal Investigation and Captain Ziegler, Police Force.

We found a video at Garaudy's house.

It appears he came here with Julien Perrot and Pascal Chaperon.

Did you know them?

Like everyone else.

I never invited them round.

It shows them here on New Year's Eve and they don't look like intruders.

-New Year's Eve of '95. -My father bought the farm in '98.

There's another man in the video.

He's big, broad shoulders, slightly balding.

Delgado.

-Delgado? -He's the former owner.

-Where can we find him? -We don't speak any more.

We were in a long court battle with him

over latent defects to the property.

Arsehole.

Thank you.

OK.

The search at Chaperon's came up empty.

-And the shooter's blood? -Nothing either.

We've got to find this Delgado.

If he's the fourth guy, we'll be one step ahead for once

and we can get to the killers.

Thank you.

Yes, Irène.

The clothes the teens are wearing in the video

are the same as in the police photos taken the day of their alleged suicide.

So, this may have all taken place in one day.

What do we do?

Start by finding Delgado.

My men just called, he's not at his house.

-They're doing a stakeout. -OK.

-Call me if he turns up. -OK.

-Goodnight. -You too.

Other foot now.

Come on. You're done.

Yeah?

Did you switch your phone off or what?

Get dressed.

Lucas is sending us clips from the other videos.

I'll wait for you downstairs. Hurry up.

Calm down. Stop... Don't move.

Understood? Stop moving, OK?

-What's your name? -Please, please, please...

What's your name?

Éric.

Éric Lombard.

Éric Lombard!

Éric, well, well.

-Am I hurting you? -No, I'm fine.

It's just a scratch.

It narrowly missed your artery.

You could've bled to death.

I'm scared, Éric.

I don't want to lose you.

That won't happen.

This will be over soon.

Then we can move on.

Bring that girl to Hirtmann.

OK?

I slipped up from the get-go.

Don't start beating yourself up.

No one could've seen that coming.

We searched all the outhouses.

No trace of your guy.

Thank you. Safe trip home.

We need to re-examine all teenage disappearances

like the ones filed as runaways.

Same goes for cases of suicide and assault.

How many years should we go back?

15 to 20 years.

These guys were on a rampage for a long time.

They were a pack of wolves, Cathy.

Three or four victims wasn't enough for them.

Delgado just got home!

We're bringing him in.

Thank you.

Can someone explain what the hell I'm doing here?

Hello, Mr Delgado.

Let's just calm down.

Where were you last night?

At my daughter's house.

We were celebrating my birthday.

I'd drunk so she didn't want me driving home.

Now can you tell me what I'm doing here?

Didn't you call the police the other day?

I was burgled four times last year.

I don't take chances any more.

As soon as I hear a strange noise...

Is burglary the only thing you're afraid of?

What's that supposed to mean?

It's a simple question.

Are you afraid of anything else at the moment?

No?

Like what happened to your friends,

Chaperon, Perrot, Garaudy.

It's been years since I last spoke to them.

-What happened to them? -They're dead.

Murdered.

Don't you think this might be revenge?

-What are you talking about? -How many did you rape? Kill?

Five? 10? 15?

What the hell is this about?

I don't know what's going on,

but I've got nothing to do with this!

Sit down.

Sit down.

Thank you, Étienne.

Do you know how much I had to fight to get you this job?

And to convince the others that you were the right person?

-Sorry. -You screwed me over.

That wasn't my intention.

All I want to do is find my sister.

You need help, Diane.

I don't need anyone.

I just want to know where he buried Fabienne.

Did he tell you something?

If I had had more time, I would've got somewhere.

Why did you make me come here?

You've got 10 minutes.

That's all I can do.

Every time I left, I didn't think I'd have the strength to come back here.

You tend to get used to fear.

Tell me where she is.

Did he say anything?

I don't know. I hope so.

Thank you.

Everyone's in place at Delgado's house.

We switched the lights on at his place.

Has he calmed down?

He's still mouthing off and demanding a lawyer.

He'll back down before we do.

-Have they sent you backup? -Six men.

-Is that it? -It's 31 December.

That's all they had.

Don't worry, access routes are limited. We won't miss Lombard.

This case has been nothing but a shambles.

Is that the forensic report?

He just did a few external examinations.

He didn't even explore options other than suicide

and the teenagers must've had prints on them.

If we go with your logic

and they did kill their victims, why let Lombard live?

I don't know.

Maybe they didn't dare finish the job with him.

Imagine if Lombard's father found his son dead?

With all his money and connections...

Killing that kid would've been too risky.

So, if Lombard was spared because of his father...

..do you rule out his accomplice being another victim?

I'm not ruling anything out, but it'd be easy for him to pay someone off.

Captain.

-Someone's at reception for you. -Who?

Diane Berg. She says it's urgent.

I heard what happened. How did they find out who you were?

Remember the place you asked Hirtmann to be godfather?

Yes.

She's there. Fabienne is there.

Something's come up. I have to go.

Stop.

Leave her alone!

My dad can give you money.

We told you to shut it, dumb prick!

-We don't give a crap about your money. -Stop!

I thought you'd got rid of that?

I'll get to it.

I don't want you watching that any more.

Did you see Hirtmann?

I have the fourth name.

José Delgado.

And his address.

I want you to kill that animal.

But I also want you to come back.

It's going to be OK, Martin.

Thank you.

Hirtmann gave me a choice.

Either I let him go

and he tells me where she was...

..or if I arrested him...

..he wouldn't talk.

You made the right choice.

He had just buried her.

She was still breathing.

He told me he'd buried her with an oxygen bottle.

-She's dead because of you? -I didn't believe him. Sorry.

Get out.

Out!

Think about the party tonight and being nice and warm.

-Are you going to Mat's tonight? -No.

If you flake on New Year's Eve,

don't complain when invites stop coming your way.

I have a date with Lombard tonight.

A bottle of champagne says he won't come.

Then get your wallets ready.

-Martin? -Yeah?

We're still in front of Delgado's house. No sign of Lombard.

-Are you coming? -Not right now.

-Keep me in the loop. -OK.

Hélène.

Hélène, Let me at least take you back.

Please.

Hélène.

It'll be over soon.

I'll be able to go home

and you'll continue to rot in here.

If things are going so well why are you in such a bad mood?

Oh, you took her.

She found her sister. You should be happy.

-Did you tell her why she died? -You killed her.

Oh, right, if you think that will ease your guilt,

I'm happy to take the fall.

It'll pass, Martin.

Everything does.

You were talking about the case.

Any new clues?

He won't follow through. We'll stop him before he does.

Who?

Lombard.

-Bravo. Really. -How did you know?

Sandra Belleto.

She overheard the arseholes who raped her talk about another victim.

Lombard?

Yes.

That horse thing was your idea.

Why?

To make you come here.

Why won't you believe me when I tell you I miss you?

We were friends for 20 years after all.

It's no coincidence that all this started when Hélène got here.

Remember she's the one who came looking for me.

Make room for Lombard and his accomplice.

We'll catch them before they get to Delgado.

Assuming they're going for Delgado...

Yes, there's one more.

Martin?

He's not the last one!

-What are you talking about? -Delgado.

He's not the last one.

There's another one.

-Hello? -Yes, I'm here.

If Lombard is saving Delgado for last, we've got the wrong man.

He'll come. He has to.

They know you're coming!

-Éric? -Are you sure?

That policeman told Hirtmann.

Very well.

I'm afraid that one might get away.

Give me the name of the last one.

Elisabeth, you know the rules.

No! Not this time.

-Delgado is... -Don't blame your incompetence on me.

If you really want the name...

..you'll have to do one last thing for me.

Something came to me this morning.

New Year's Eve of '95 was the last one I spent with mother.

I say "I" because you had wandered off.

I remember because the next day, you came home with Delgado.

You'd killed a deer and let it rot in the shed for weeks.

Eat up, it'll get cold.

I found Fabienne, Dad.

We need to tell the police.

And your mother too.

-Do you know where she is? -I can't do that.

What can't you do?

You want to let the last one get away?

As well as the one the police are protecting?

Is that what you want?

-Fine, we'll stop everything. -No.

We knew this could happen.

We were prepared for this!

Revenge is like war...

..there are always innocent victims!

And us?

Are we still innocent?

Oh...

She's so pretty!

So cute!

The big, bad wolf is here.

Yes?

Still nothing.

OK. Let's drop it.

We'll just watch the house in shifts.

OK.

Let's hope we don't have a fourth death on our hands for New Year's Day.

Martin!

Somebody!

Martin!

Dad?

Can I sleep here?

Of course you can.

I don't feel like telling anyone tonight.

That can wait till tomorrow, honey.

I'll fetch us something nice for dinner.

I won't be long.
