Original subtitles

You are here for your own safety.

Because you have unwittingly become pawns...

for a criminal organisation...

specialising in prostitution.

Ilias, the organisation used the university...

to legally bring girls to Greece and pimp them out.

They've realised their plan can't work.

So they're preparing for their next move.

You've ensured that those involved and those close to them...

are safe, correct?

Correct.

What about Tonia?

You're done. Now it's every man for himself.

-Do what you want. -What about you?

I won't betray the Reptile.

We know about the Reptile...

and that only you have seen his face.

That is nothing but speculation.

If you had evidence, you would arrest me.

-Why are you here again? -To talk.

-And tell us what, dammit? -Pantelis!

Let him go.

The leader has called a meeting.

Who's the leader?

They call him the Reptile.

None of us have seen him.

Will he be there too?

When and where?

Everyone freeze! Hands up!

Put your hands up! It's all over!

Nothing's over!

Imagine a man whose identity is unknown to all.

While everyone wonders who he is...

he hides among them, disguised as a cog in the machine.

When we didn't arrest him before, he came to us on his own.

Hey, buddy.

What's the horsepower on this thing?

-Have you worked for Savakis long? -I just work at his club.

It's been seven months.

I don't even see a traffic ticket. Your record is spotless.

As things are right now...

I can only get out of trouble with your help.

We're leaving for Malta.

A jet is waiting for us.

You will decide what our destination will be.

My sole purpose in life...

will be to find the Reptile and lay his corpse at your feet.

I give you my word.

Our committee has taken all testimonies into consideration...

and reached a decision.

COSMOTE TV PRESENTS

I don't understand what else you want from me.

Melina...

May I call you Melina?

How long did your father abuse you?

Since I was 11.

Did the abuse start...

after your mother was sectioned in a psych ward?

No, it started long before that.

So, that night...

your father came into your room.

Yes.

How old did you say your brother is?

Fifteen.

Fifteen.

He was asleep in his room, correct?

Correct.

Your father was drunk, as usual.

He came into your room and...

Yes.

And while he was on top of you...

you took the screwdriver from your nightstand...

and stabbed him.

-Where did you stab him? -In the neck.

How many times?

I can't remember. Several times.

-What about your brother? -He was asleep.

So your father, bleeding heavily...

collapsed on the bed...

you got up and continued to stab him.

This is Captain Karra. I'm listening.

Where?

You said you took the screwdriver from your father's toolbox.

Yes.

What happened then?

I called the police and woke my brother up.

Did your brother see your father's dead body?

No. I didn't let him.

There's been an incident.

An explosion at a funeral parlour. One casualty.

Pantelis is on his way there.

Okay, you go too. Keep me posted.

Excuse me.

I'm Captain Sklavis.

-You know who that is? -No.

That's Sklavis. From the Keratsini massacre.

You're kidding! I thought he'd be bigger.

-Wasn't his chief sacked over that? -Yeah, Vanortas.

-You know who replaced him? -Who?

Athina Lygerou.

-From the Kallipoli case? -Exactly.

I want you to push the crowd as far back as you can.

Please get as back as possible.

I own the shop right next door.

Captain! This gentleman says he runs the shop next door.

Write down his contact details.

-Good evening, doctor. -Good evening.

-How's it going? -The body's condition won't help.

I'll send samples for a histology test...

but the fire has caused significant damage.

Is something worrying you?

Once we get the results back, I'll let you know.

There you are.

What's happening, Pantelis?

As it seems, probably it was a gas canister leak.

The body is probably the owner's.

If Forensics doesn't find anything significant...

we won't be needed here.

Can we clear the space so the body can be collected?

-Mr Thanasis? Where's my dad? -I wish I knew, my girl.

They won't tell us anything.

-Let me through. -What are you doing?

My dad is in there!

-Let me through! -What's going on?

-She's the owner's daughter. -My dad is in there!

-I need you to calm down! -Please!

-What's your name? -Aliki Vasiliou.

-And your father's name? -Antonis Xylas.

This is his business. Please tell me what's happened.

All evidence points to an explosion caused by a gas leak.

-Catch her. -Someone help!

Hurry up, guys!

And you, sir? Were you a friend of his?

No, we were neighbours.

I run the shop next door.

I'm ruined. I lost all my goods.

God, what will I do now?

-What's your name, sir? -Melas.

-Thanasis Melas. -Did you notify his daughter?

Yes, I did.

-Were you present at the explosion? -No, I wasn't.

I had just locked up my shop.

I had walked three or four blocks that way...

when suddenly, I heard the bang.

Have the girl escorted home. Get me her details.

-Yes, Captain. -Do we have Mr Melas' details?

Yes, Captain.

Those useless pigs...

Look what you did to her.

Look where you've put her.

Look!

Calm down, Meropi.

Please!

Don't listen to her, Dimitris.

It's not your fault. She's in pain.

It's not your fault. She's in pain.

DANAI

I miss you!

I know.

-You're still up? -I was waiting for you.

What are you doing?

Writing an article about the 18-year-old patricide.

How are you getting on with that case?

Athina is on top of the case.

Did she say why?

-Christina... -What?

-We've been over this. -Fine.

-I'm gonna take a shower. -All right.

Goodnight, Calf.

'Cause I just love you so much

Hey, where are we going?

See ya, Calf.

-Is Calf his name? -It's his nickname.

That's a weird name.

"Finch" would be a weird name. It's obvious why he's called Calf.

Don't tell me we're already going home!

Not yet. The night's just getting good.

Hey, don't hog the bottle!

Happy now, jackass?

Don't we have another one?

What's this girl saying?

You think I'd leave you without a drink?

-Talk, man! -Chill the fuck out.

Come here, you wanker.

-See what I've got here? -What did you do?

-Nice one, Giorgis! -Say cheese morons!

-Come on, get inside. -Let's go!

-And it's all... -'Cause I just love you so much

-Come on. -Let's get going!

Jesus!

Hey, listen.

Got any of the good stuff?

I've got some. How much do you want?

All of it.

There you go.

-This again, man? -What can I do, Leo?

-Do you accept credit cards? -I don't give change.

Sure, I remember. Hey, listen.

Last time, instead of change, you gave us a freebie.

I want the freebie.

There you go.

You remember what I told you?

Only one each. They'll knock you out.

-And drink water. -So we don't burn our balls.

Cheers, Doctor.

Hey. Guess what.

Come on!

Come on, lad!

You've reached the Ministry of Public Order.

Fine, I'll let him know. Thank you for calling.

Good morning. I'm Kostas Platsis, the Minister's PA.

-Yes, I know. -I apologise for the wait, General.

The Minister will see you now.

-Good morning. -Come in, General.

Take a seat. How long has it been?

Since last year's reception at the Presidential Palace.

-Leave us, Kostas. -Can I bring you anything, General?

No, thank you.

You must be surprised and curious as to why I called you here.

-You're correct on both points. -General...

you're a frank, blunt man.

There's no need for these pleasantries.

-I'm listening. -I called you here...

because of this.

Your letter of resignation.

Which I submitted a month ago. I've been awaiting a reply since.

Let's get to the point.

General, I respect your directness...

and your understanding of politics.

The first thing I noticed when we met.

I thought we were getting to the point.

Did the Keratsini fiasco lead you to compose this letter?

-Obviously. -Why?

You've just said it. Because it was a fiasco.

Why do you feel responsible for it?

Minister...

we are both in positions of authority.

The question is a poor one, to say the least.

We take responsibility for our subordinates' errors.

Conscientiousness demands it.

In this particular case...

Police Chief Nikos Vanortas came up with a plan.

He outlined it to me and I approved it.

Afterwards, I defended him before the committee.

The committee decided that he should be dismissed...

branding the incident as a fiasco.

Since Mr Vanortas has been dismissed...

and the case is considered a fiasco...

I consider myself responsible.

General, I think you're taking...

a much too personal, idealistic view of the matter.

Idealistic? What are you talking about?

A girl has died. A citizen.

She wasn't the only one and she won't be the last.

Listen to this.

Don't do anything stupid!

Let the girl go! She's innocent!

-It's all over! -Nothing's over!

Fuck them up!

I've seen the camera footage.

Listen carefully now.

Kill the fuckers! Kill every last one!

"Kill the fuckers. Kill every last one."

-Minister... -I don't see how you're to blame.

All I see is that a hotblooded officer...

failed to execute the plan you devised.

He turned the operation into a street fight.

This hothead...

couldn't even stay calm and arrest as many men as he could.

All those who could testify against Leandros Staikos, the Reptile.

The operation devolved into a fiasco in Keratsini...

not during the initial planning stage.

Vanortas had Staikos in the interrogation room.

In six months, there will be a reshuffle.

I am aiming for the Foreign Office.

If you resign, others must do so also...

all the way up the chain of command.

So leave the blame with whom it belongs.

Set aside your idealism.

You don't seem to be waiting for retirement.

We can't lose a capable future Minister of Public Order...

because you want to shoulder another man's mistakes...

which were not due to your decisions.

You submitted your resignation for reasons of conscience.

Rightly so.

The Ministry, which cannot afford losing capable officials...

rejects your resignation.

Understood?

I'm almost there.

Yes, I took my daughter to the airport.

She's flying to Paris.

Today. Yes, I know.

Get the red folder from my office. I'm on my way.

I'm on way. Thanks.

I'll be there shortly.

-Thank you. -For what?

For coming with me to the airport.

Eleni, I would never disturb your daughter's peace of mind...

while she was here.

I know and I'm thankful.

What about the peace between us?

I can't take this anymore.

I can't, either.

-We'll talk about it another time. -When, Apostolos?

When?

You're shutting me out. You're avoiding me.

We had opportunities to talk while my daughter was here.

Aren't you in a hurry?

Right, I'm in a hurry.

I don't want us to be like this.

I don't want that.

I'm going for coffee. You want one?

No, I have coffee. Thanks.

-Coffee, Captain? -Coffee? No thanks.

Martha, where's Athina?

I'm waiting for her.

-Pantelis. -Yeah?

When punishing a guilty party requires punishing an innocent...

what do you do?

Hold up.

When punishing a guilty party requires punishing an innocent...

how innocent is the innocent party?

Completely, let's say.

Or at least they've already been punished.

They've already been punished?

Why don't you just say what you're thinking?

I am. I'm not thinking of anything else.

Look, the law will help you out of this dilemma.

How?

Well, this isn't our job.

Justice decides who is guilty and who is innocent.

I sounded like Apostolos just now.

No, you're right.

-But... -But you knew that already.

I told you nothing new.

Listen.

When my brother was killed...

my state of mind was indescribable.

I wanted to catch his killer and tear him to pieces.

I didn't do that. I trusted in the law.

In accordance with the law, he was given a life sentence...

and was released after a few years.

Many times, I thought of meting out to him...

the same law he meted out to my brother.

The law of the gun.

-But you didn't. -Theseus beat me to it.

Pantelis, you had all the time in the world to do it.

Theseus didn't beat you to it.

Maybe you're right.

Did you feel freed by what Theseus did?

Michalis Artakis. Six armed robberies.

He killed two people...

an old lady collecting her pension and a young man.

The first thing I felt...

was relief.

The second thing I felt was fear.

-That suspicion would fall on you? -No.

That our world shouldn't be this way.

When you're drowning in the ocean without a lifeline...

or a single hope...

you don't look for a cruise ship to grab onto.

All you want is a wooden plank. That might be enough to save you.

The law may not always be fair...

but without it, what do we have left?

-I've said too much. -No.

You're right.

What I'm trying to tell you...

is that when you share your fear with another...

that fear is halved.

Yeah.

Fear can be halved...

but when it comes to a dilemma, the opposite happens.

If you share a dilemma with another...

it weighs on both of you.

Are we speaking theoretically?

Any news from the coroner?

Nothing yet. The body is in poor condition.

The fire damaged it.

He's waiting for the histology test results.

Martha?

We have contact details for Xylas' daughter and neighbour.

In general, we're waiting.

Nothing seems odd.

The counter-terrorism unit said so, too.

What about the 18-year-old?

I'm hoping to close the case soon.

What's puzzling you about this case?

The murder weapon was a screwdriver...

on which we found her fingerprints.

She's confessed.

The fingerprints on the screwdriver are puzzling me.

But she confessed, right?

Chief, the Commissioner is in his office.

I would like to go to the funeral parlour...

to take a look and talk to Forensics.

Go ahead.

Martha, we'll need a DNA sample from Xylas' daughter...

to confirm the body belongs to her father.

Ioulia, please look into Antonis Xylas...

-so we can wrap up the case. -Got it.

I'm going.

Do you want Xylas' daughter brought here for questioning?

Pantelis, she lost her father.

Leave it. I'll go talk to her.

With all due respect...

I agree with the Minister.

Don't muck me about, Athina.

No, I really mean that.

The plan was flawless.

You ordered that everyone involved should be protected.

You repeatedly told him to trust his team.

What else could you have done?

The force can't lose a capable officer...

because Vanortas dropped the ball.

Those are just platitudes to spare my feelings.

You should know that.

I'm saying this because I've been through it.

The Kallipoli case was completely different.

I'm not trying to convince you.

I'm just glad you're staying.

What about the explosion at the funeral parlour?

We're waiting for the lab results.

We'll wrap the case up once we've ruled out criminal activity.

What about the 18-year-old? We're out of time.

-She needs a lawyer. -I'll close the case today.

Anything new on the Other Me case?

Captain Karra is on it. I'm awaiting an update.

-Any news from the hospital? -No change.

Okay, Athina. You can go. Keep me posted.

-How's it going, Captain? -You tell me.

We found some vessels containing chemical residue.

Analysis will tell us what the chemicals are.

Probably just substances typically used in this job.

Other than that, everything looks normal.

-You know what I don't get? -What?

The gas canisters that caused the explosion...

were situated here.

That's the explosion's point of origin.

Yeah, that's it.

So why did this wall collapse?

-Because of the shockwave? -That much I understand.

Why didn't the wall by the canisters collapse?

The hole is all the way over there.

The part of the wall that collapsed didn't have the same composition.

What do you mean?

Come this way.

-Are you done here? -Yes.

Go ahead.

See this, Captain?

The wall consists of two layers of bricks.

The bricks were removed from the section that was demolished...

and replaced with plasterboard on both sides.

So this section was built later?

Either that...

or the wall was damaged and had to be repaired.

Could you take a picture for me?

-Are you finishing up here? -I don't think it'll take long.

-Can I take a look inside? -Go ahead.

-Your name, sir? -Agisilaos Stroupas.

-I'm the owner. -You own the funeral parlour?

Yes. Well, I don't own the business.

I own the property. The shop next door is mine, too.

-Do you live nearby? -No, I don't live in Athens.

Tell me, how long is this gonna take?

-Come again? -The investigation, I mean.

Expenses are piling up.

The tenant and I are both losing money.

If you don't leave soon, we can't begin repairs.

That's why I'm asking when I can have the space back.

We'll let you know once Forensics finishes here.

I see.

Will you be leaving right away or are you staying for a while?

-Why do you ask? -We might need you to testify.

I assume you will also be able to inform me.

-About what? -About the damage to my property.

It was an accident, correct? Shouldn't I be informed?

-Can I go inside? -I'm sorry, but no.

Very well.

Miss Vasiliou...

do you know if your father was having any difficulties...

or if he had any enemies?

Why would you ask me that?

Wasn't it an accident?

All evidence indicates that it was...

but our department's job...

is to eliminate other possibilities.

No.

He was a kind, gentle man.

He wasn't the type to share his problems...

but if he had any, I would know.

Do you know if he had any financial troubles?

No, we were financially comfortable.

We weren't flush with money, but nor were we counting pennies.

-What do you do? -I'm a graduate accountant.

All right.

I won't impose on your time.

It's just that, to complete identification...

we need you to visit our lab as soon as is convenient.

I beg your pardon.

I just realised something. Your name is Aliki Vasiliou?

-Yes. -Are you married?

-No. -But your father...

He was my stepfather. My biological father abandoned us.

My mother met Antonis when I was five.

Essentially...

he brought me up.

-And your mother? -She passed away.

I put the fruit in the fridge...

and the other food in the cupboard.

-Thank you. -Do you need anything else?

No, thank you.

Yes, Dean. Yes.

I understand.

Can I call you another time?

Thank you.

Was that the university?

-When do you plan to go back? -I don't know.

-How are things with Eleni? -Her daughter returned to Paris.

Eleni and I...

Do you need anything from your house?

No, thank you.

Dimitris, I don't want to be tiresome, but...

I'll unpack.

Perhaps tomorrow.

Tonia wants that, too.

Dimitris, staying in Tonia's house isn't doing you any good.

Nor should you go back to your own house.

It would be best if you didn't unpack.

You should go somewhere else.

What if Marikaki comes back?

-Dean. -Are the reports ready?

Yes. Here they are.

Mrs Richardson moved tomorrow's conference call to 11:00 PM.

Fine. Forward me the link as soon as you get it.

Yes, sir. A young lady came earlier.

She asked for Mr Lainis, then Mr Velissaratos.

-She's waiting in the next room. -Thank you.

ANTONIS XYLAS

BIRTH CERTIFICATE IDENTIFICATION

OPERATING LICENSE INSURANCE CONTRACTS

Mr Velissaratos has been at our US campus for two months.

We've launched a faculty exchange programme.

I wasn't aware he was abroad.

I came to ask him how Mr Lainis is doing.

I allowed some time to pass after the incident.

I didn't know what else to do, so I came here.

In such cases there's nothing anyone can do to help, sadly.

-Only time heals. -Yes. Time.

Barring unforeseen circumstances, Mr Lainis will resume teaching.

Should I pass on a message to him?

No, thank you.

I'll be going now. Goodbye.

Take care, miss.

Can you please state your full name to the camera?

Of course.

My name is Athanasios Melas.

Are you the owner of the property next to the funeral parlour?

No, I don't own the property.

I only own the business.

I rent the property.

Do you know if the funeral parlour is owned by Mr Antonis Xylas?

It's not owned by him, either. He owns the business.

The property is owned...

by the same proprietor as the one I rent.

Did you know him?

There was only a door between us. We chatted often.

Sometimes we would play a game of backgammon.

Was he working there on the night of the explosion?

Yes. Who else would be?

You found his dead body. Why are you asking me?

Mr Melas, we found a burned body in the funeral parlour.

It will be extremely difficult to identify it.

So for now, we can only speculate that the body is Mr Xylas'.

I saw him wearing those clothes with my own eyes.

Who else could it be?

Let me ask the questions...

so we can wrap this up without imposing on you further.

Yes, you're right.

I beg your pardon. Now...

Antonis...

ran the business on his own.

He used to have an assistant...

but he let him go.

This was about a year ago.

So he worked there alone.

When did you see him last?

Shortly before the accident...

I locked up my store...

I walked next door...

hoping to play a round of backgammon with him.

Antonis!

Antonis!

Hey, Thanasis. What are you doing here so late?

What do you think I'm doing here?

I'm here to get revenge for yesterday.

Thanasis, I'm afraid we can't play tonight.

I'm busy.

I get it. God keep such misfortune away from us.

Antonis, is something wrong?

No. Everything's fine.

Is something up with Aliki?

I said nothing's wrong.

I didn't...

I didn't mean to be nosy.

I'm sorry, Thanasis. I've got a lot on my mind.

I'll tell you tomorrow over our game of backgammon.

Sure, Antonis.

-Goodnight. -God bless you.

I left.

I had barely walked three or four blocks...

when I heard the bang...

and hurried back.

Do you have any notion as to why he might have been upset?

What usually gets people down?

Matters of love...

their health...

or their wallets.

Do you know if he had any health issues?

No, he was healthy as a horse.

He only had trouble with his finances...

from what I understood.

When he told you he was busy...

you assumed he had a body in the back.

Yes. What else could it be?

Perhaps he was attending to something else...

and you just assumed it was a body.

Yes, perhaps.

What can I tell you?

I didn't see that, with my own eyes.

We're finished, Mr Melas.

If we need anything else, we'll be in touch.

So I can go?

Yes, you can.

Come in.

Good evening, Eleni.

Vangelis. What brings you here?

Do you have the results of Xylas' histology test?

To confirm your gut feeling?

It wasn't a gut feeling.

Yes, we've got them.

-You were right. -Is it certain?

I ran the test a second time.

Yes, it's certain.

May I please read the file? I'll take it to the chief.

Of course.

Here it is.

Melas mentioned they didn't play backgammon that night.

Xylas was busy.

As Melas says, from what he understood...

there was probably a dead body in the back.

If Xylas had a dead body in the parlour...

why didn't we find two corpses?

Maybe the victim made an excuse to avoid his neighbour.

Melas also said that the victim had financial difficulties.

His daughter does not corroborate this.

Did you ask his daughter to provide a DNA sample?

No. She's not his daughter.

She isn't?

She's not his biological daughter.

All right. What have you got, Pantelis?

I visited the funeral parlour and spoke to Forensics.

There was nothing noteworthy.

The wall between the two businesses collapsed...

because it was structurally unsound.

As I was leaving, I ran into the owner of both properties...

Agisilaos Stroupas.

-I told him we might need him. -Well done.

Ioulia, where are you at with the camera footage?

It's ready. I've isolated the sections that interest us.

The CCTV system's hard drive only stores three days of footage.

Nothing significant on the previous days.

Who's the old lady leaving the building?

A resident of the apartment block next door.

She got away just in time.

Nothing happens after that.

Nobody else appears prior to Forensics arriving.

-Good evening. -Good evening.

What brings you here?

We have the autopsy and histology test results.

I wanted to speak to you personally.

We're listening.

There are two significant findings.

The first is that the victim's fingertips...

had suffered fourth degree burns before the explosion...

from a caustic liquid.

So it's impossible to identify his fingerprints.

We couldn't collect a DNA sample from his daughter...

as they are not biologically related.

I see.

What about the second finding?

We found that the man did not die during the explosion.

He was already dead.

As if he died of cardiac arrest before the explosion?

No, he died much earlier.

-How much earlier? -It's hard to say exactly when.

I would say that this man died...

at least four or five days before the explosion.

-Dionysis, what... -I want to see Melina.

He made a scene downstairs. He asked to see you.

Next time, inform me. Nobody is allowed in here.

-I'm sorry. It won't happen again. -Go.

I want to see Melina.

Dionysis, that can't happen. She has to remain here.

For how long?

You'll be in trouble with CPS if they realise you ran away.

I don't care. I don't like it there.

I want to go home with Melina.

Here's what we'll do.

We'll take you back to CPS...

and I'll arrange for you to see your sister legally.

When?

As soon as I can. I give you my word. All right?

If you want them to turn the siren on, let them know.

Hey, Captain!
