Original subtitles

THOMAS: I had an enviable life before the reunion.

Career, friends, stability.

But none of it mattered because I didn't have truth.

So I came home to make truth show its face.

And now I could hardly bear to look at it.

A father who wasn't mine

replaced by another I hardly knew.

A mother forced into secrets

that had kept me safe for so long.

I thought I was letting in the light.

I was wrong.

(French theme song)

DOCTOR: He has multiple fractures to his vertebrae,

pelvis, legs and ribs.

He got lucky with the trajectory of the bullet.

But he also has bruising to the brain,

a subdural haematoma.

Blood pressure was low despite a shot of norepinephrine

so we decided to put him into an induced coma.

The next 72 hours are critical.

If he comes round on his own,

then he's got a chance.

If he doesn't...

I'm sorry I can't give you better news.

Don't you dare listen to him.

You're gonna be OK.

You hear me?

Me and Olivier and your girls,

we'll make sure of that.

(Crying)

I'm sorry.

I should never have come back.

I put you in danger.

I promise

I will never let you down again.

Manon Agostini, the cop,

is waiting for you outside.

She wants to know everything about Maxime's accident.

You're going to tell her the truth, aren't you?

Not until Max agrees.

He'd decided to go to the police.

There's a bigger picture.

It's not just Max's freedom and mine at stake.

Look at him.

He's in a coma.

- I never meant to hurt him. - But you did!

You caused all of this.

Oh, Max.

Annabelle?

Jesus!

Francis was murdered last night.

Get dressed.

Are you certain you didn't see the attacker?

This happened around midnight?

Why were you both at the Nest?

We needed to talk.

You couldn't do it over the phone?

And somebody just... tried to kill Max?

For no reason.

(Sighs) OK.

You can tell me later.

When you're ready.

Um...

I've got some bad news, though.

About Francis.

We found him on the beach last night.

He's dead.

It must have been about the same time Max was attacked and shot.

Are you OK?

Dead or killed?

Killed.

- Your mother was there too. - Where is she?

She had a gun. She ran away.

Where has she gone, Thomas?

You still think this is a game?

People are dead!

Don't want to talk? Fine.

Come with me.

This is an emergency.

I need you to listen and do what I tell you.

You... you need a doctor.

There's no point. I'll be dead by the end of the day.

Oh, Annabelle, come on!

You caused this catastrophe

by bringing that girl into our lives

- and now you must fix it. - Or you'll shoot me?

God, be a man, for once!

Show me I made the right choice by staying with you.

So, what happened to Francis?

He gave his life trying to keep Thomas out of jail.

Thomas killed Clément.

He was insane with jealousy.

He knew she'd got involved with someone who hurt her.

He thought it was Clément. But it was you.

Now do you see what you've done?

Thomas was just a boy.

He shouldn't have to pay for your mistakes.

Is... is Thomas in danger?

I'm taking care of it.

What the... What does that mean?

It means I'm going back to where this all began

to save our son.

You've long enjoyed the role of father

and now you need to play your part too.

Show Thomas what a father's love really is.

♪ Happy birthday

♪ Dear Thomas

♪ Happy birthday to you ♪

(Laughter)

Hey! Birthday boy...

- Thank you. - Lovely man.

It will be OK, Thomas.

FRANCIS: Let me look at you.

You're safe. I took care of it.

Why is all this happening, Thomas?

I can't protect you, if you don't help me.

Francis was involved with a Russian gang.

They kidnapped him, told him they'd kill him

if Max didn't agree to meet and "work" for them.

Max met them at the Nest?

I told him it was a trap.

But that makes no sense.

How does Annabelle fit into this?

I don't know.

I think she might have gone after them.

- That'd be so stupid. - (Phone rings)

Hi, Dad. Where are you?

ANNABELLE: I'm safe. Are you?

I'm at the beach with Manon.

Max has had a terrible accident.

Everyone's looking for Mum, have you seen her?

I'm OK. I have everything under control.

Please, don't worry about me.

Francis is dead.

She was here, but I'm really concerned for her safety.

I wish you'd had the chance to get to know your father better,

understood what Francis meant to me.

How he protected us.

Do you know where Mum has gone?

Talk to Fanny. She's waiting

at Sainte Marie Madeleine.

She's expecting you.

She has all the answers.

- Why can't you tell me? - I have things to do.

You boys will have nothing to fear any more.

Don't! Whatever it is you think you're doing, please don't.

I love you, my darling.

We'll all be together again very soon.

Maman! No!

(Clock chimes)

(Clock chimes)

Fanny.

Have something to tell me?

I'm a liar, Thomas.

I lied to you today, this week,

25 years ago.

So many lies.

- No. - That's OK.

I've always known there was a body in the gym.

But until you told me,

I didn't know Clément was there too.

What do you mean?

There are two bodies there.

- Clément and... - No.

- And Vinca. - No. You're wrong.

No, I'm not.

How can you be so sure?

Because I'm the one who killed her.

I'll fix this.

I'll fix this.

- What's wrong? - Just go look after her!

- Where are you going? - Just fucking do it!

This will make you feel better.

I adored her at first.

But she could be so cruel.

She's in the gym?

Like a piece of dirt?

All this time?

Was she in pain?

No. No.

Did you watch her die?

Tell me.

After I gave her the tea,

I went back to my room

and I waited for you.

But you never came.

Eventually, I went back to see her.

The mug was empty.

And she wasn't breathing.

She'd gone.

But I didn't mean to hurt her.

You knew exactly what you were doing.

You killed her.

I wanted to tell you.

Your mother wouldn't let me.

My mother?

They'll be safe.

They'll be safe.

I killed Vinca!

Shh! Shh! It's gonna be OK.

What have I done?

(Whispering)

This is the most important moment of your life.

You have a decision to make, and you have to do it fast.

Now, there are only two options.

You call the police, you tell them everything.

They put you in a cell.

No bail. They'll rip you to shreds.

You'll be the jealous bitch who killed her best friend.

- How old are you? - 18 last month.

Oh, my God!

So you're an adult.

You'll be given a full sentence. Jesus.

God, she'll be what, 40 by the time she gets out?

I mean, her life is over before it's begun.

Um...

What's the other option?

You fight.

What?

I mean, we can help you.

Do you want me to help you?

Because this will only work if you do exactly what I ask.

No questions, no explanations.

That's my only condition, and it's non-negotiable.

If you talk, if you make the slightest mistake,

it's not only you who goes to jail.

Annabelle and I, too.

I... I'll do whatever you say.

Hey.

Here's your costume.

You'll be in Nice by 4:00.

Go straight home, not to school.

Stay there for the rest of the holidays.

And there will be tough days ahead.

But I know you'll get through.

Don't dwell on what you did.

Obliterate the truth and destroy it

until eventually your lies become the truth

and you'll be set free.

Go. Go.

My mother orchestrated the whole thing.

I kept to her rules.

We never talked about it after,

until yesterday.

The police were everywhere, asking questions.

So we met,

and she finally said I could tell you.

I'm glad you finally know the truth.

You both lied to me for decades.

And yesterday

you cooked up some new story.

Thomas.

The truth,

a handful of pills?

I was there.

I felt for a pulse. There was nothing.

Vinca is dead.

She's not.

- Don't do that to yourself. - I saw her in Menton!

You just saw what you wanted to see.

An idolised phantom from the past.

She had no use for your love.

- You were obsessed with her. - I wanted you to see

what a total bitch she --

Young girls are cruel. It must've driven you mad...

You didn't know her at all.

I... uh...

wanted you to have this.

No.

No, it's OK.

You know, I can get another one.

When we go together in the holidays.

Um...

Hey!

I mean... Fanny...

We've split up.

It's OK. We're still friends and everything, but...

Idiot.

You're perfect together.

Look... Hey, look!

I... I don't feel anything when I'm with her.

- Same when I'm with -- - Wanna go to a party?

- Oh, yeah! - Cool.

Um... Aya's having one, I think we can go together.

- Yeah, let's go. - It's cool.

WOMAN: I'm so excited!

This story's bullshit. You always envied her.

WOMAN: I'm always happy to give a doctor's opinion.

I'm researching a detail for my next book.

How many flunitrazepam would you need for a fatal overdose?

That's hard to specify, it depends on so many factors.

Health, age, history of dependency.

Well, my character is 18. Slim, healthy.

Has no underlying health conditions.

But has been using flunitrazepam for a while.

She's got tolerance?

- Yes. Would 12 pills do it? - It could prove lethal.

But there are more effective alternatives.

Great. Thanks. You've been a real help.

(Groans)

(Takes deep breaths)

Waiter?

Can I... another pastis over here,

for Pianelli.

Me?

Why?

Well, congratulations on your front page. Bravo!

- It's my third this year. - Wow!

And there's more to come.

Yeah, it's a pity you got so much of it wrong.

You haven't got a clue, have you? You just...

write whatever gossip pops into your head.

Have you got something to tell me?

Maybe I do.

Maybe I don't.

Look, a long time ago,

I did something

to protect my family.

It was the right thing to do, but...

- You married? - Divorcing.

Good. Don't do it again. Monogamy is unnatural.

It can only lead to frustration, temptation and disaster.

What have you done Richard?

I think I've said enough already.

Look, anyone knows this place is like my office, right?

I'm here most days

and yet it's the first time I've seen you.

So you can't back out now. What did you come to tell me?

They're gonna say that I'm some kind of... um...

predator.

And I... I need you to give my side of the story.

She was the one who set it all off.

- Who are we talking about? - Vinca. Conniving bitch.

She and her useless boyfriend

tried to destroy my family.

I slept with her once!

She was completely passive, like she was having root canal.

But... they got the photos they wanted.

They blackmailed you?

Yeah, and I paid the first time.

But then Clément came again

and I knew that they would never be satisfied.

Then what happened?

ANNABELLE: Thomas was just a boy.

He shouldn't have to pay for your mistakes.

I stabbed the fucker in the head.

And I put him in the gym,

got Russian hoods to cover my tracks...

Vinca, she ran away.

Nobody blackmailed me any more.

Hi, you've reached Annabelle Degalais.

Please leave a message.

I beg you to stop whatever you think you're doing to protect me.

Talk to me, Maman.

Let me help you work this out.

Dad! Ah, thank God!

Do you know where Mum is?

I'm afraid your father has had too much to drink.

He's told me all sort of things.

- You need to pick him up. - Let me talk to him.

He says he killed Clément.

Thomas? You still there?

I'm on my way.

I'm sorry, mate.

It's not how I wanted things to turn out.

- Where is he? - Bathroom.

I can't hide this, you know that?

I'm obliged to tell the police immediately.

You took your time.

- Sober up. - Look, I'm not drunk.

It's just part of a pantomime to save you.

I'm going to jail for you.

Why did you sleep with her, Dad?

There were so many women. Why did you need her too?

I don't know.

I am truly sorry.

- Look, Mum's in danger. - OK, just stop.

She wants you to be free. And you are. So just...

Tell me everything she said to you.

- That's between man and wife. - Dad! Please!

For God's sake! She told me that Francis was dead,

that you were in danger, and it's my fault

- and she'd take care of everything. - How?

"By going back to where it all began."

- What does that mean? - It could mean anything.

Birthplace.

Uh... where she first met Francis,

or , god forbid, where she first met me.

- Where did you meet? - In St Ex, of course.

ANNABELLE: Talk to Fanny.

She's waiting at Sainte Marie Madeleine.

- She's expecting you. - (School bell rings)

- She's gone back to college. - You can't be certain of that.

I can. There were bells.

- He's all yours. - Where are you off to so fast?

To find a lawyer.

(School bell rings)

Hello?

Hello?

Is there anybody here?

There's somebody in there. Hello?

MAN: Come on.

- Hello? - All right.

Let's go.

TOM: Let me go!

He's harmless, David. I'll deal with him.

- You're working late tonight. - I don't even get any overtime.

- I'm too good for this world. - Anyone else in there with you?

No.

Do you want to come in and check?

No.

Have you seen my mother today?

I have not, Mr Degalais.

What are all these about?

They're ghastly aren't they? The new head, Emily Deville,

sprinkled them everywhere like fairy dust.

They're motivational.

They make me want to pluck my eyeballs out.

"Wings are freedom only when they are wide open in flight.

On one's back, they are a burden to carry."

"Wings are freedom only when they are wide open in flight."

THOMAS: Vinca's seeing someone else.

Alexis Clément. The creepy philosophy teacher.

It's just gossip.

They weren't even lovers. Doesn't make sense at all.

There's rumours you're involved with a teacher.

- You've no regrets? - For killing a rapist?

Where did you get this?

- I didn't want to do it. - She had a lover called Alexis.

I must meet someone and pack.

But it wasn't Clément.

- I don't want to do it. - Deville. I had a crush on her.

She was always the cool teacher.

She's the head now.

It's not my fault.

- They weren't lovers. - It's just gossip.

Doesn't make sense at all.

Alexis forced me.

Alexis forced me.

It's not my fault.

Alexis made me do it.

I wish we'd never met. I wish we had been us.

I'll fix this. I'll fix this.

I wish we had...

I wish we'd never met.

Emily Alexis Deville.

We got it so wrong.

Alexis was here the whole time.

I just worked it out too.

The handwriting.

No, wait. Let the police deal with it.

My mother is in danger.
