you do that, ma chérie?

It's a method called 333.

Trois, trois, trois.

Hm?

It's something that I use

for all my fashion clients

who are experiencing extreme stress
on their collection deadlines.

You did great.

Très bien, on la ramène à Paris.

Wait. What?

Wait.

You're coming to Paris.

I can't go to Paris.

Mr. Saint James.

[SIGHS] I need someone

to keep me and my team focused

through the rigors
of Fashion Week.

Okay, this is very flattering.

Through the rigors of I love
that you guys think this.

It's just...

Lauren is the best.

You haven't left
the city in years.

And you've always been
too busy to come visit me.

May I present

Lauren Elliott,

who will be joining
us temporarily

as a Lavigne team member.

Nice to meet you.

So Lauren and I met at NYU.

And she was studying
psychology and art history.

And that gives her several
areas of expertise.

And one is data analysis.

AnAnd that allows her toal
forecast fashion trends.

Oh, thank you.

The other is tending to your
psychological well-being.

I know how stressful
Fashion Week can be.

So I'm here to help
in any way I can.

I know how stressful Fashion

to you if you threaten me?

[SNAPPING PHOTOS]

[DOOR SLIDING]

Et voilà. [LAUGHS]

Virgil, you have
given us a dream.

This is not merely glamorous.

Oh.

But it is going to
make us a ton of money.

Bravo, Virgil.

Together, we are magic.

Ari, meet our newest addition.

You must be Lauren.

Hi.

Ari is the Chairman and the CEO

of Royal and Schulz, the
company that now owns Lavigne.

It's so nice to meet you.

Likewise.

It'You like the place? Ou.

I love it.

And have you seen our
stone-faced handbags?

This is where they're
assembled and then sold for

8,500 to 300,000.

They actually fetch a pretty
penny on the black market, too.

8,500 tOui.0,000.

Counterfeiting is a
huge problem for us

with millions of euro
siphoned off each year.

Can you say which one is a fake?

No, they look pretty
identical to me.

No, no, first of all, the stone.

No, they look pretty
is unpicked by me.

Oh.

Knockoffs cannot match
its specific texture.

Also, notice the cheap factory
lining, the messy stitch work,

and the cheap hardware.

Hm?

An authentic Lavigne
handbag is produced by hand

with the finest materials,
even around the stone,

and takes hours, hundreds
of hours, to complete.

Saperlipopette!

So how on earth would you
safeguard against fakes?

Well, we have security
measures in place,

like serial numbers and a
strict inventory control

over all handbag materials from
the thread to the hardware.

It's all very specific.

Sadly, we've had some
production delays

from the imported
Italian leather.

And you're just telling me now?

Is it going to be
ready for the show?

And you'I'm afraid not. Me now?

Royal & Shultz made a huge
investment in Lavigne.

And that handbag is central
to our expansion plans.

So it better be
unveiled at the show.

Find a way, Gerard, or your
head to our will roll.plans.

So it better be
unveiled at Charlotte.

Théo, where have you been?

We're falling behind.

Where is the list of
the models for the show?

We needed it yesterday.

I know it's here somewhere.

Here it is.

Théo, I'd actually love
to help you find a system

so you can stay organized.

Bienvenue dans le monde
de la mode, ma chérie.

No, no. Mais
qu'est-ce que tu fais?

This is supposed to be an
ad about Lavigne clothes.

These are so dark and moody, I can't tell
what anyone Mais qu'is wearing. Tu fais?

It's art.

It's a disaster.

II agree.

IThis won't do...

Patrick, you are fired.

Pardon.

Je vais me venger. C'est Claire.

What did he just say?

He said he'll get even.

Oof, tough day, huh?

Oh, that's nothing.

Sometimes it's just
absolute chaos.

[LAUGHS]

[TRAFFIC NOISE]

[LAUGHS] You've come so
far since freshman year.

I mean, look at this.

Oh, yeah, [INAUDIBLE].

[LAUGHS] Your blue
ombré hair phase.

No, I really don't
want to talk about it.

Well, now you're killing
it in the fashion world.

C'est la vie, Char.

[LAUGHTER]

I'm so proud of you.

Oh, now we are
roommates once again.

[LAUGHS] Love it.

Yeah.

[GASPS] Look at
that perfect beauty.

That would look good on you.

I don't know.

I've only ever seen you
wearing beige and black.

Come on.

Well, that's because beige
and black are classic.

Lauren, beige and
black are safe.

You work at Lavigne now.

It's a fashion
house, not a prison.

We're going to change it up.

No.

Let's go, yeah.

[LAUGHTER]

[CHATTER]

On vous a aidé ce matin.

Oui?

The dress is very nice on you.

Merci.

Bonjour.

Listen, we have a scheduled
meeting this morning.

If you could just
take a look at these,

we can go over some
measurable goals.

Tout le monde, descend!

Wait.

What's going on?

Diana Feeney is expected
in less than an hour.

Diana Feeney from Luxe Arbour?

Yes.

Virgil is preparing his Diana
Feecollectionuxe Arbour?

Because Diana's opinion is
the only one that matters.

Is the only one that matters.

Because Diana's opinion is
the only oYes. Hat matters.

[LAUGHTER]

Bonjour, Diana.

I presume this is your sister.

Don't be silly, Virgil.

Let's get on with it, shall we?

I offer you the
Clashing Harmony.

For this collection,
I was inspired

by the flowing shapes of a
city, the evolving architecture

that will leave him,
and the many colors

that sprout in our
human landscape.

The Clashing Harmony.

How thrilling.

If you just came
upstairs, I can show you

how we plan to expand on this
idea, at the show tonight.

I think I've already
seen enough, Virgil.

Just a warning, Diana.

There are going to be some
changes on how Lavigne operates

with Luxe Arbour.

Such as?

Do keep me waiting.

If you want advertising,

you're going to have to
give us editorial coverage.

[CHUCKLES]

Are you telling me how
to run my magazine?

It's your good fortune

that you are too ridiculous
to be taken seriously.

Otherwise, someone might
take it in their head

to teach you a lesson.

Come along, Emily.

[FOOTSTEPS]

Well done, Gerard.

You have just made an enemy

out of the most influential
forces in fashion.

Hours before the runway show.

Very good.

Don't make me do the 333.

[WHISPERS] Forgive me.

My dear, it's been
such a long time

since we've seen each other.

That arrangement
suits me perfectly.

Si[SCOFFS] Don't be silly.r.

We're all friends, Virgil.

We should join creative forces.

Have you ever considered design
collaboration between us?

Creditors are nipping
at your heels, Ricardo?

[LAUGHS] Don't expect my
brain brain to bail you out.

Enjoy my show.

It's sublime.

Ta ta.

You will learn
something, Ricardo.

Okay, what?

All right.

Guess that means open the box.

Thank you.

What are you worrying your pretty
little head about now, Naomi?

That.

[WHISPERS] Why is she so upset?

[CHATTER]

Tu es ma princesse.

That's Virgil's
signature pendant.

He pins it on his favorite model

who wears the big reveal
dress on the runway finale.

Magnifique.

Who wears the big reveal
dress on the J'adore.inale.

It's a big deal in
the modeling world.

And now Naomi is mad at Gerard

for not helping maintain her
status as Lavigne's primadonna.

Oh.

[CHATTER]

Oof, if looks could kill.

Gerard would be
a fashion victim?

[CHATTER]

Ondine?

What can you tell
me about Tabi Lee?

Oh, the fashion blogger?

Yeah, Charlotte and I saw
her threatening Gerard

before the show.

I doubt anyone would kill over
a bad seat at a runway show.

Be for Right.show.

Except [LAUGHS] Andrew Cunanan
murdered Gianni Versace

after being rejected
and Patrizia Reggiani

killed Maurizio Gucci
after he left her.

So perhaps a bad seat is more
than it seems in this case.

Lauren, I'm glad
Virgil is keeping you

on staff a while longer.

But perhaps you should leave the
investigation part to the police.

[CHATTER]

Let's see, Tabi Lee.

What are you up to?

Great shot.

Oh, hi.

Your hair looks amazing.

Oh, thank you so much.

I just have a

about Gerard's murder.

Want to see?

I would love to.

Look at the time stamp.

9:55.

The Lavigne show
wasn't even done yet.

Don't I look amazing?

Wait.

Wait a second.

That's Naomi with
the photographer.

[SNAPPING PHOTOS]

Okay. Great.

Let's add some bling.

Hi, Patrick.

You're American.

Well, I was hoping I could
ask you a few questions.

Look, I'm just trying
to help Charlotte.

Test the lights.

I met Charlotte at her
previous post at Celine.

She's the one who recommended
me for the Lavigne shoot

her first week on the job.

That's Charlotte.

Always helpful.

[SIGHS] I'll admit, I got angry
at Gerard for being fired,

but not enough to
murder him for it.

Okay. And after the runway show?

I never went backstage.

My girlfriend Naomi was
switched at the last minute

from being the last model
to being the very first.

She was angry.

We were in the limo for
the Chanel After Party

about five seconds after

she stepped off the runway.

[SIGHS]

Look, when Naomi
grabbed me to leave...

Let's get out of here.

Diana practically
barged backstage.

I must speak to Gerard.

She was extremely angry
and demanded to see Gerard.

I have to... you
don't know who I am!

She was extremely angry
Andi have to see Gerard! Rd.

Excuse me.

[PHONE RINGING]

How are you holding up?

I've been better.

Well, if this were America,
you'd be in an orange jumpsuit.

So there's that.

Orange is so not my color.

[LAUGHS]

Thanks for making me laugh.

Of course.

[CHUCKLES]

Charlotte, do you
recall who else

had access to the hairpins?

Let's see.

Of course, the hairstylist,
the models, the team, you, me.

So basically everyone.

I passed them out at the
beginning of the show

and collected them at the end.

It was an easy job... Until...

Someone ran down the
backstage staircase.

What?

Someone ran down the
backstage staircase

just before I entered
the mezzanine.

There was someone there.

I must have blocked it out after
the gruesome discovery of Gerard.

But...

That's totally understandable.

Oftentimes, with
a traumatic event,

the brain will hide
and repress memories.

But did you get a good
lookc at this person?

I was so tired.

And the last model was
finally in the wings.

And I was just returning the
hairpin when I found Gerard.

Charlotte.

We're going to get through this.

I promise.

Okay.

[CLEARS THROAT]

Is Charlotte still
your only suspect?

I thought I told you to go home.

Well, would I be
more welcome in Paris

if I had intel to share I ton
a murder investigation? Me.

Well, would I be more
welcome Okay. You have a tip?

I do, actually.

Charlotte remembers seeing
someone flee from backstage.

Can she identify this person?

Well, no, but it's still
something, isn't it?

Without an ID, I'm afraid not.

Come on, Lauren.

May I?

My father was an NYPD
detective for 30 years.

I learned a few things.

Oh, yes.

So Charlotte was on this catwalk
when this person ran down

this staircase.

There's a door of the hallway
that exits into an alley.

Maybe that's where
the murderer escaped.

There's a door of the hallway
Maybe you're onto something.

Hey, listen, you know we already
looked into all the exits?

Yeah, but did
anyone specifically

check the staircase?

Well, we didn't have the
secret info that you have.

We've already ordered
all the security footage

from all neighboring
buildings in the area.

But I have to admit the
French can be a little bit...

Slow?

Unhurried.

Don't worry.

I'll hurry them up myself.

[PHONE DINGS]

Oh, medical I
establishment confirmedf.

That Gerard's time of
death will be 10:00 PM.

That's half an hour
Iebefore the show ended.f.

The models and crew were in
the wings 15 before that.

Yeah, I heard a witness
accosted Gerard during the show.

Tabi Lee.

She's a fashion influencer.

Tabi Lee. Okay.

She left midway
through the show.

I checked.

She started posting Chanel
After Party pics at 9:55 PM.

9:55.

Good.

Well, I guess we can remove
her from the suspect list.

Let me see.

Well, I guess we can remove her
Same with Naomi and Patrick.

Tabi Lee's feed shows
them together at 10:03.

Which leaves Charlotte.

Maybe not.

I ran all Lavigne
employee and show guests.

Everyone checked out.

The one person was a person of
interest in a previous murder case.

Diana Feeney, Editor in Chief
of Luxe Arbour Magazine.

When Diana was 20, she was a
suspect in a London murder.

They caught the real
killer and he died in jail.

But the police report
indicates that Diana

lied to the detective
about her whereabouts

the night of the murder.

Which casts doubt
on her character.

And now, again, she's
hiding something.

And phone records
indicate that she

talked to Gerard
during the show,

right before he was murdered.

We have to get to her.

We?

I'll see if someone
at work can help.

I'm going to check the exits.

[CHATTER]

[TYPING]

This came for you.

I guess you're officially
seen as part of the team now.

Oh, thank you.

[PHONE VIBRATES]

Hey, Lauren.

Hey, André.

You in the mood for
good news, bad news?

Oh, yes, I love that game.

Oh, anyway, the bottom of the
staircase was pretty deserted.

Oh, No business inside.ame.

No security camera to check.

Nothing.

I'm sorry.

There's good news?

I found this beautiful little
patisserie, Saint George.

We have to try it.

Well, I found us a way to
question Diana and Emily.

Guess who just got invited to Diana's
Fashion Week cocktail reception?

Ugh.

what I do for a living?

Of course, playing

I got to be better
than the other cops.

Why?

Because my father and my older
brother were art forgers.

Oh.

Wow.

Yeah, my father didn't copy
any existing paintings, no.

Instead he created pieces
famous painters would have done.

Do you know how talented
you've got to be to do this?

I'm so sorry.

Do you know how talented
you've got It's OK.o do this?

They served their time.

But they stained the name
Duvreuil with a reputation

that I would very
much like to overcome.

So I... I go by the book.

Right.

[CHATTER]

[INAUDIBLE CHATTER]

Bonsoir Madame Feeney.

Ah?

Bonsoir.

[CHUCKLES] Thank you for...

[CHUCKLES]

Well, get on with it.

Did you call Gerard during the
show the day he was murdered?

Of course not.

It's funny because your phone
record indicates otherwise.

So why lie like you did
all those years ago?

I've worked hard to reinvent
myself from those dark days.

And when you heard about Gerard?

I was worried the career I built

could be jeopardized if I was tied
to another murder investigation.

Did you ever make it to
the backstage mezzanine?

No, I gave up after those
silly guards stopped me.

Don't they know who I am?

[CHUCKLES]

[CHATTER]

Oh my god, I don't have
any self-service here.

It's giving me a rush.

[CHUCKLES]

[CHATTER]

OMG.

My selfie with Harry Styles

No way.

My selfie with Harry Styles

Haut Couture Week is
so amazing, right?

Diana, celebrities, murders.

Right.

You know I was there
the night of the murder.

No way.

Serious?

Tell me everything.

Well, people keep
asking if Diana

had anything to do with it.

But I know she didn't.

I was with her all night.

But I overheard a
convo between Diana

and that woman Ondine
Avedon from Lavigne.

Ondine wanted revenge on Gerald.

Eww.

Why?

Ondine was angling to be
the president of Lavigne.

But she was passed
over for Gerald.

So maybe Ondine's the murderer.

BBut why would Ondineer
even say that to Diana?

That's so weird.

They are friends, if you
even scan believe Diana?

A woman like Diana has friends.

They are friends, if you
even so[CHATTER]eDiana?

Ondine, huh?

Jealousy can be a
big, big motive.

By the way, the undercover work
at the bar earlier was amazing.

[LAUGHS] Emily had
no idea bwho I was.

Yeah, it seems like it's time
to dig further into Ondine.

Actually, I have a meeting with
her tomorrow at the atelier.

YLauren, I meant to ask you,
e why are you doing all this?

Charlotte was the only one
there for me when my mom died.

I'm sorry.

Yeah, my dad did his best.

But he was so overwhelmed
with his own grief

that the only thing he could
do was throw himself into work.

It was Charlotte that
scraped me off the floor.

And she did it every day.

So I owe her.

And I'll fight for her.

Good for you, Lauren.

So I'll stop at my place and
then meet you at Ondine's?

All right, no talking to her
until I get there though.

Tu comprends?

All right, no talking to her
untilMerci. Bonjour.ough.

[KNOCKING]

[DOOR SQUEAKING]

[DOOR CLOSING]

Bonsoir?

[CAMERA CLICKING]

Bullet wounds to the head
appear to be self-inflicted,

consistent with the powder
burns on the temple.

[SNAPPING PHOTOS]

It doesn't take
a genius, genius.

Got something over here.

A suicide note and a confession.

A love affair gone wrong.

So Ondine murdered
Gerard who rejected her.

Feeling guilty over a part in a
lover's death, she kills herself.

I guess it was nothing more
than a crime of passion.

Timestamp says 9:47 PM.

It's right after the
cocktail reception.

We just missed her.

Get a digital forensic to see
what else is on the hard drive.

We need to get a timeline
for their relationship,

see how it tracks.

Sure.

Make a meal out of everything.

Thank you.

It seems so straightforward...

Maybe you shouldn't
poke around too much...

[RUSTLING OF PLASTIC BAG]

Lauren, you're holding up?

How didn't I see it?

How didn't I see any of
the signs of distress?

Lauren, we both
work in professions

where we meet people that are
not always what they seem.

Yeah, but we're both
trained to see beyond that.

Maybe she was right.

There's no mystery here.

Ondine was depressed
for killing Gerard.

So she killed herself in turn.

If I were just sharper, I
could have saved two people.

Lauren, there's no way
you could have known.

Hey.

Oh.

Hey.

It's OK.

[HONKING, TRAFFIC NOISES]

[SOUNDS OF A SIREN]

[SNIFFLES]

I can't believe Ondine is gone.

[RADIO CHATTER]

I spoke to your lawyer.

And?

And based on what
happened with Ondine,

she thinks you can be
released in a few days.

And how is everyone
at Lavigne taking it?

They're devastated, naturally.

Of course.

First Gerard and now this.

Charlotte, did you know
that Ondine and Gerard

were romantically involved?

What?

Ondine's suicide note mentioned
an affair with Gerard.

No, Lauren.

Gerard preferred men.

[CHATTER]

[CITY NOISES] [FOOTSTEPS]

Bonjour, Théo.

It's actually bonsoir.

You see, it's evening.

So bonsoir.

Right.

That's another Lauren faux pas.

[LAUGHS]

Got that word right
at least, huh?

I just wanted to check in with
everyone outside of the office

to see if anyone needed my
help processing Ondine's death.

And Gerard's too, of course.

I don't need your help.

I'm fine.

Gerard loved you, you know?

I found this.

Virgil asked me to
clean out his office.

And it was addressed to you.

So I thought you should have it.

I was worried Gerard
was up to something.

Why?

I overheard phone
calls between him

and Ondine talking about
missing inventory at Lavigne.

Did you ever ask
Gerard about it?

No, we kept our personal and
work relationships separate.

He was a very nice man

when he was able to
disconnect from Lavigne,

even if it was for
fleeting moments.

Thank you, Lauren.

Bonsoir.

Mademoiselle.

Merci.

De rien.

So I had a long chat with Théo.

He and Gerard were
definitely involved.

Ondine alluded to being
rejected by Gerard.

Right.

Because Gerard
chose Théo instead.

That is why she killed him.

It seems like case is closed.

Due to your able assistance.

All you, Inspector Duvreuil.

Okay.

Duvreuil.

Voilà.

Merci bonjour.

[LAUGHTER]

Sorry.

[PHONE VIBRATES]

Yeah.

Duvreuil.

Tu es sérieux là?

Ok. J'arrive. J'arrive.

[SIGHS]

The autopsy revealed that Ondine
died of a blunt force trauma,

a hit right behind the
ear, not a gunshot wound.

Which means somebody staged
her death as a suicide.

And a Lavigne handbag found
at the scene is a counterfeit.

Which means somebody staged
he[CHILDREN SHOUTING]e.

AThen I guess Théo deserves
at a second look after all.it.

No, Théo was in London the
night Ondine was murdered.

I just checked charges
on the Lavigne account.

[SIGHS]

Charlotte's still going to
be released, though, right?

André?

[CHURCH BELL RINGING]

Look, Lauren, since Ondine
didn't kill herself,

Charlotte remains the main
suspect in Gerard's death.

I'm sorry.

But we just have to
find something else.

Okay, look. A counterfeit
bag was found at the scene.

That's got to mean something.

So I could go back to Ondine's
to see if we missed a clue.

And maybe your family can help.

Forgers must be a pretty
small community, right?

And maybe yl'm sorry. Can help.

Lauren, I became a policeman
to escape my family,

not to use them for my job.

I didn't mean it.

I got to go.

Sorry, dad.

[CLATTER]

What am I looking for?

Hey.

Hi, honey.

Hey, dad.

Oh, is now a bad time?

No, not at all.

I got a new hobby.

I'm jogging.

Hey, how's Paris?

Oh, it's great.

Hey, where are you now?

Everything OK?

I'm just at a friend's house.

So listen, remember that
digital forensic case,

the one with the fake heiress?

Yeah, that one was a doozy.

What did you look for in all
those computer files and folders?

Oh, I searched for keywords
like probe, inquiry, and such.

I really didn't mean it.

Listen, André, I'm really
sorry about my It's late.efore.

I know.

But listen, I found
an entire warehouse

full of counterfeit
Lavigne bags.

I'll be there in 15.

Tell me where you are.

After I found an address
on I'la thumb drive 15.

At Ondine's apartment,
I decided...

No, I didn't hear you say that.

But... right.

No, I didl had a hunch. Ay that.

A hunch.

Yes, a hunch that
there's something

to discover at this warehouse.

And once I was inside

to discLauren, no, no.rehouse.

No, no, I know it's not
proper police protocol.

But once I was inside,
I discovered this,

a warehouse full of
counterfeit Lavigne bags.

There's been an uptick in
counterfeiting right across France.

This is huge.

I just wish I got a photo of
the two guys at the warehouse.

Then what?

You would have been discovered.

I don't know.

But what I do know
is that whoever

is behind these counterfeits
is the same person

that murdered Ondine and Gerard.

I'm sure of it.

If this goes wrong, I'm going
to get transferred to Timbuktu.

[CLATTER]

Woof.

[CHUCKLES]

They were right here.

You saw the photos.

I'm going to need a lot more
evidence to make a case.

Chau, take two more guys
and inspect the perimeter.

Sure.

Inspector Duvreuil.

Captain Fontaine.

I will be expecting
a report on my desk

explaining all this
before Cyour shift ends.

Well, I hear the weather is pretty
nice in Timbuktu this time of year.

I'm sorry, André.

They must have been moved.

Well, if they didn't move them in
Timbuktu, bonne chance finding them.

Did anything suspicious show
up on Ondine's security camera

at her building?

No, even though it was
an entry in the rear.

Ugh.

Yeah, let me guess,
it was out of service?

The camera was not
even installed.

Of course.

The camera was not

Not even a real motive, I mean,
besides the counterfeit handbags...

So what now?

Je pense que nous
sommes sans issue.

Hm?

We're in a dead end.

I knew that.

Yeah.

OK, so there's only
one solution then.

Food.

Oh, well, the French cuisine
is the finest in the world.

What with nouvelle cuisine,
maybe haute cuisine?

No, I was thinking more like
is thpeople's cuisine.orld.

What is that?

[LAUGHS] I can't believe
you're passing on a hot dog.

I know it's considered Michelin
star cuisine in America.

But how, may I ask, how is
your hot dog a solution?

[CHUCKLES] It just
helps me think.

It's something I used
to do with my dad.

In fact, I still do.

But back then, whenever
he was working on a case

and he couldn't solve it,

we would go to our
favorite hot dog stand,

find a bench in Central Park,
load it up with mustard,

and work on scenarios.

And we would always end up with
a clue on a person, or a place,

or a thing.

And we would always end up with
a clue A person, a place. Place,

That's it.

We've been focusing
too much on the people,

where we should have been

The warehouse is currently

Thank you for coming.

Why am I here?

I've done nothing wrong, except
maybe for that bell bottom face.

That was simply dreadful.

Well, I can assure you
this has nothing to do

with the crime of fashion.

Just for the record, you
are Ricardo Dolce, correct?

That is correct.

All right, could
you describe for me

your relationship
with Virgil St. James?

We've known each other since our
days at the Fashion Institute.

Oh, you were friends?

Oh, darling, designers
have a problem

with the concept of co-existing.

Look at Chanel and Schiaparelli.

Talk about rivalry.

Well, it's fair to say Lookthat
you and Virgil hadelli.

A long-standing feud then.

Oh, no, no, a feud would
mean that we are equals.

A No, no, that's absurd.n.

Oh, no, no, a feud would
mean th[CLEARS THROAT]s.

Well, according to my a
figures, Virgil's salesn.

For the Lavigne company

currently outnumber yours by
a figure two to one. Salesn.

Is that correct, Mr. Dolce?

Where's he going with this?

Yeah?

Well, it will make
complete sense

that you would want to
undermine your main competitor

by counterfeiting their
most desirable goods,

like their handbags.

Maybe you would
even kill for it.

Is that why you brought me here? To accuse
me of this outrageous like nonsense? Dbags.

I deny it.

Is that why you brought me here? To accuse
me of this outrageous ll deny everything...

Well, you just admitted

to a feud with Virgil.

You just admitted that Virgil
and the House of Lavigne

has obscured your brand, leaving
you embittered and vengeful.

Your company has leased a
warehouse on the Rue Duval.

That is the main station
for counterfeit goods.

And you cannot deny this because
your signature is on the lease.

Yes, I can.

This is not my signature.

It has been forged.

[CHATTER]

[SUSPENSFUL MUSIC PLAYING]

Ari, can we talk?

I'm due on an emergency
call with Roland Schulz,

Board of Directors.

I'm sensing some
tension over the call.

Anything I can help mitigate?

It's not good.

Two murders and another
employee's alleged involvement,

hardly inspiring for investors.

Yeah, I can certainly understand
why the board is uneasy.

They don't want to follow
the House of Lavigne,

just like what happened
in Gucci and Versace

after the scandal, the murder.

Murder scandals?

I see your French is improving.

It's kind of an easy one.

The board might want to explore a
change starting at the very top.

Hence your interest in other
designers, like Ricardo Dolce.

Ricardo?

Why do you say that?

I haven't spoken
with him in months.

None of the new
trends inspire me.

Just...

Sweater vest for woman.

Impossible.

I want you to breathe.

I must create four collections a

is to get away from
the creative block.

8,500 a bag, that's...

8,500,000.

8, That's big motive.-

That guy at the warehouse,
he was looking for something.

It was something that
belonged to his boss.

Look, I... the
boxes might be gone,

but there might be a clue into

who or what is
framing migmy friend.,

Listen, we don't
have authorization

to go back to the warehouse.

Is that clear?

I have to go back

to fill up the report
for Captain Fontaine.

But they are... how

So all of this because
Ari chose Ricardo

to replace you as

I took the House of Lavigne
from a middling fashion house

to the trendsetter it is today.

IAnd then because of some, e

I am fini?

No!

No, stop!

I decided that if I was
going to be shown the door,

I might as well make a

But your beef was with Ari.

So why would you kill
Ondine and Gerard?

Gerard.

[ECHOING VOICES]

He learned of my
counterfeits, threatening

to take this
information to the cops.

I was rather fond of Gerard,
up until the moment I kill him.

And Charlotte?

Oh, Charlotte.

Sweet Charlotte.

Her presence worked out to my,
how do you say, convenience.

After all, someone
had to take the blame.

And Ondine, that was
just another convenience?

Ondine's faux pas was that
she was a bit too nosy

about the warehouse
for her own good.

Oh.

As are you, ma chérie.

So I am afraid you're going
