Original subtitles

That's not what I said.

- Take me home. - Fuck you.

- That's it. - Slow down.

I've had enough.

You hurt me. You're hurting me!

Will you stop it?

You love me so much you won't even run away with me?

ADORATION

They're almost here.

Tell me while we're alone.

Cause of death is most likely strangulation.

She might have died the night she went missing,

but the autopsy will confirm it.

There are bruises on her back.

Given the place she was found,

I think she was killed somewhere else

and then dragged.

Jesus Christ.

I'm so sorry.

I want to see her.

No!

No, Elena!

Sweetie!

No!

How is it possible?

What happened?

Please, tell me what happened!

CCTV at school is out of order.

The principal told me that as soon as they fix it,

the kids break it again.

She can't have gotten there on her own.

The moped's at home.

Someone must've taken her there.

The problem is...

Elena trusted everyone.

She's dead and it's still her fault?

- Even that drunk, Ricotta. - Shut up.

But I had to shut up because you always had to meddle!

You wouldn't let her breathe. You suffocated her.

And Enrico.

You turned that kid into a watchdog.

Aren't you ashamed at all?

Paolo, was that app your idea?

I only wanted to protect her, Chiara.

How can a kid always get it wrong in your eyes?

Maybe we should come back another time.

This is fucked up.

What's going on?

Elena's autopsy.

She died the night she went missing, between 23:00 and 1:00.

She had consensual intercourse just before dying.

There's sperm and saliva traces.

- There are two DNAs. - Oh...

Traces of methamphetamine in the toxicology screen.

- That too? - "That too", what?

I mean, also...

Gio, why was she behind the school?

I have no idea.

Tell me the whole truth.

Vane, we made love in the car, and I took her home. Period.

I don't know why she went back.

Gio, where the fuck were we?

Hey...

Who the fuck did this?

I have no idea. It doesn't make sense.

I might be the last one who saw her alive.

I know.

If it comes out...

it would be messy.

I have the competition, you know...

The fucking competition?

- They killed her! - Vane!

Fuck you, Gio!

Aunt texted me.

It's a tragedy.

Do they have any suspects?

I don't know.

Hey.

Giorgio.

Giorgio, what's wrong?

I fucked up, Mom!

Gio...

- I fucked up! - Calm down, you're scaring me.

Gio. What's going on?

What happened?

Tell me what happened.

I fucked up, Mom!

Anyway...

We should organize something for Elena.

Like what?

Something to remember her.

All of us together.

Also to Vera,

let's not say anything.

It's better like that.

- Got it? - Yeah.

Come on.

This picture?

It's beautiful.

Okay.

"If you want to remember Elena...

we'll meet tonight..."

- At 7:30 p.m. - "At 7:30 p.m."

Sweetie?

Sweetie.

- We need to go to the police. - Coming.

Hey, Gia.

- We're in deep shit. - Yeah, it sucks.

No, it doesn't just suck. It's catastrophic.

My car's full of all sorts of DNA, evidence, fingerprints, you name it.

- What do I tell the police? - Tell them nothing.

You lent me your car and I didn't do anything.

- When will you talk to Enrico? - Not right now.

What about the police? Vanessa and I will be accomplices if you don't talk.

Accomplices to what?

I don't know.

You tell me.

This is totally insane.

Totally.

But if no one finds out about the car,

no one will get in trouble.

Do you get it?

Hey.

Okay?

AT LEAST WE'D MEET IN PERSON...

DUNNO, WE'LL SEE...

I'D LIKE TO COME TO SABAUDIA TOMORROW TO SEE YOU.

LIKE THIS FOREVER

TO REMEMBER ELENA - CANDLELIGHT VIGIL ON THE BEACH AT 7:30 P.M.

Vanessa, thanks for coming.

I know it's not easy, but it's really important.

It was the guy on Instagram, right?

That wasn't Elena.

It couldn't have been her,

because she was already dead when they were posted.

I'd say it was just...

an exhibitionist asshole.

There's something more important.

Elena was all dressed up.

She had to go somewhere that night, meet someone.

I don't know who.

Maybe you could make a guess.

You were her best friend.

Come on, sweetie.

I don't know.

She didn't tell me, but it doesn't mean it didn't happen.

Let's suppose it did happen.

Let's also suppose that Enrico found out.

You know him well.

How could he have reacted to that?

No... You mean Enrico?

It's impossible.

I know, but...

In these cases, statistics speak for themselves.

Absolutely not.

Are you sure, hon?

Dad, he lived for Elena.

Alright.

Ricotta, instead.

Did he follow you and Elena when you were together...

Sometimes, yeah. Actually,

that night I saw him near her house.

So he was there when Elena went missing?

Yes.

One last thing.

Can you tell me the exact time you last saw Elena?

I didn't see her.

I sent her a voice message at 18:45,

when I went to her place.

Then I saw Enrico was there.

And she answered.

Yeah, right away, with a voice message.

Hey.

I got some pizza.

Want some?

No, I'm not hungry.

I was just going to sleep.

Let's talk a bit, then.

I can see you're a wreck.

I'm dead tired.

Melissa?

I lost a friend too,

when I was your age.

A bike accident on the coast road after a party.

It could have happened to any of us,

me included.

It was devastating.

Elena wasn't my friend.

And what happened to her is a bit different.

Wait.

I'll try to cover up the comments thing.

But we're investigating a homicide,

and I can't grant it.

Meaning?

That's it.

Just so you know.

Should it happen...

I'll deal with it.

Go on, counselor.

First, I wanted to inform you

that my client,

surely because of his current emotional state,

did a foolish thing last night.

Which is?

He went to the scene

and entered the perimeter...

I only wanted to bring her a rose.

To show her I love her.

Enrico, will you help me reconstruct Elena's last day?

Yes, I...

I picked her up at Giorgetti's,

right after her shift ended.

I saw her...

giving something to Ricotta...

I had my car and I drove her home.

We talked.

Then we made love.

Did you take drugs?

No. Neither of us did.

- Then? - Nothing.

I had to rush to Cassino.

I study there and I had an exam the following day.

Have you ever suspected or believed

that Elena betrayed you?

Not even remotely.

Not a single time?

- In what, one, two years? - Two years.

Not once?

Never.

Is this all?

Yes. You spent the night in Cassino.

Can anyone confirm that?

I don't know, I...

I was in my studio flat.

- Don't you think it's enough? - Yes.

Before you go,

if Enrico agrees to it,

we need a sample of his DNA.

Oh, sure.

Absolutely.

- You sure she doesn't know about this? - Yes. I'm sure.

You didn't tell her, right?

Yes, I'm sure.

Good morning.

Hi, honey.

When you call me honey, I need to worry.

Stop it, Ve. Shut up and be grateful.

Okay, let's stop arguing.

Enough.

Bye, Mom.

What's wrong?

Why did you stop talking when I got in the kitchen?

What, you're paranoid now?

I'm not paranoid.

You think you can fool me?

What's up, Gio?

I think I was the last person who saw Elena alive.

Really?

- It can't be. - It's an absurd situation.

I don't know how to fix it.

Who else knows?

You and Mom.

Vanessa and Gianmarco too. They found out.

Fuck, I can't seem to get anything right.

Come on.

- Take this, honey, freshen up a bit. - I don't care about swollen eyes, Mom.

Sweetheart...

This is not working, Wa.

Did you see the state she's in? Uh?

I don't know.

We need to do something to distract her.

Call the Crociaras, see if they'll throw another party.

Walter, can you tell me why you're never on my side. Why?

I don't know what the fuck you're thinking.

You didn't spend one word for Elena. Not one.

She grew up in this house, didn't she?

Yeah, and I don't understand why she grew up so bad.

Can we talk just a minute?

Listen, we haven't talked about it yet,

but I wanted to tell you I'm sorry for Elena.

She was really cool.

I never understood why you were friends.

Thanks.

And about Giorgio...

Here we go.

Of course you have a hidden agenda.

Come on, Vane.

- Are you afraid I'd go to the police? - No.

I know you wouldn't. He's your cousin.

I just wanted to make sure.

I'm doing it for my mother.

She's already messed up. If he goes to prison, it's over.

She's already half crazy, you know?

You only care about yourselves. That's what I fucking know.

Vanessa!

If they go on like this, I'll go talk to Chiara.

Can you believe it?

Elena's dead and they worry

about what the police might think, the competition, Enza.

Fuck it!

I know, babe, but Giorgio's in a shitty situation.

Did I put him in it?

Okay.

But if we tell about Giorgio, we'll have to tell about us too.

It was my car.

We knew and said nothing.

So what? Elena is dead!

And none of us three killed her, right?

So what's the problem?

I had the car washed, for one.

I panicked the other day, babe.

Fuck you too, then.

You, of all people!

Let me get this.

Are you okay?

Yes, I'm only exhausted.

Take a break. Five minutes.

What's going on?

I don't feel anything.

Elena's dead, everybody's upset, and I don't feel like crying at all.

Sweetie.

That's normal.

You're in shock.

I'm afraid I'm just an insensitive bitch.

WOW, YOU'RE REALLY HOT!

WE'RE ON BREAK, ARE YOU COMING?

BE THERE IN TEN, CAN'T WAIT TO SEE YOU

OKAY, I'LL BE ON THE BEACH NEAR THE ROCKS.

Fuck, Rico.

Listen, can I have something to eat?

What did I tell you?

Go away!

Go.

Hi, Jacopo.

Hi. Finally.

- How are you? - I'm good.

I heard about the girl who got killed.

Let's change subject, can we?

Yeah.

How about we take a walk?

Sure.

Look.

Do you like it?

The way I drew you?

It's beautiful.

I mean, your work, not me.

Come on, shut up.

Actually, you know...

I'd love to shoot another one.

You mean, still naked?

Yes.

I mean, something similar, but different.

I don't know, we can think about it,

then I'll work on it and make something nice.

When were you thinking?

Well, you know... I came all the way here.

Let's make the most of it.

Maybe, we can keep walking

and find a quiet spot.

You always wanted to be an artist?

Yeah, more or less.

No plan B? What will you do later on?

Later on? What does "later on" mean?

Well, when you grow up.

Can you make ends meet with pictures?

Wow, how sad.

You think about this stuff already?

What's your plan, then?

Medicine. I've been studying a year for the test.

Maybe two weeks after finishing school you realize you changed your mind.

- Did you think about that? - It won't happen to me.

For one who's only 15, you got it all figured out.

For one who's 30, you still have no clue.

Okay, sorry, hang on a sec.

Let's calm down, okay?

What's going on, huh?

Are you being weird about the pictures? I mean...

Why the fuck do you think I came all the way here?

You calm down. I'm not being weird.

Why don't you just leave?

I drove two hours for nothing and now I'm leaving because you're in a bad mood?

Maybe, yes.

You think you're cool because you bought two anatomy books?

First, you live in Sabaudia.

Second, you want to be a doctor. I mean, it's not exactly cool.

You send naked pictures and you get pissed off if I hit on you?

Life's going to teach you many lessons, kid.

Hi.

- Hi. - I'm Flavio.

Diana.

Were you smiling at me earlier?

I only waved hello.

Because I really don't have a clue

on how to approach someone on the beach.

I don't even know if approaching is still a thing.

Are you okay?

Go away!

Chiara, I need to tell you something.

Still working?

Sue them right now.

- I used to be a lawyer. - Yes, I know.

With a big studio and all...

Show your hands.

Where did you get that hairband?

I don't remember. Maybe...

Tuesday night. Where were you?

Do you remember?

I don't know when it's Tuesday night.

Wait.

Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday...

I can't remember...

Yeah, I need a patrol car in Piazza della Patria, in Sabaudia.

I'm taking him into custody.

They took Ricotta into custody.

Maybe because of Elena.

How's that possible?

I mean, he can barely walk.

I wonder who she was with that night.

Manu, please.

Sorry.

- DID YOU READ? - I DON'T THINK IT WAS HIM

Sweetie, how about I take the day off

and we spend it together?

Maybe we can go to the mall?

I don't feel like it.

We can go to Latina, huh?

We can get you a nice swimsuit for Mykonos, maybe?

What did I say?

I'm here, go on.

Where are you?

I'm going to Cassino looking for witnesses, then to uni.

Go on.

Enrico's movements confirm what he told us.

His phone pinged off to the same cell as Elena's.

Later on he went to Cassino,

where he spent the night and the morning after.

It doesn't mean shit.

They surveilled each other with that creepy app.

He might have left his phone in Cassino

like she left hers at home.

The toll booth cameras confirm that.

He exited the freeway on June 21 at 19:00

and left for Sabaudia the next day.

I know you're suspicious of him.

- But we have nothing... - It's not me, it's statistics.

Go on.

Obviously there was Enrico's DNA on Elena's body,

but the sperm is someone else's.

Elena had another intercourse before being killed, a consensual one.

That's why I'd send Ricotta home.

Okay, but let's test his DNA first.

I want to cross all my Ts, okay?

Okay.

Bye.

Hey.

I tried texting you, but you weren't viewing the texts.

You think I lost my phone?

Or maybe I'm ignoring you on purpose?

Can I come in so we can talk?

No.

Okay, here's fine. I wanted to...

apologize for what happened.

I wanted to do it earlier, but...

With Elena and the rest...

- For what happened? - Yeah.

What happened?

A misunderstanding, I went a bit too far.

I lost control.

But you must not think that I wanted to hurt you.

It's only right that you're angry, just don't think I did it on purpose.

You're such an idiot!

Hey. I'm apologizing. What am I supposed to do?

Hey!

Stay away from me!

If I see you here again, I swear I'll tell my aunt.

You have to leave. Go away!

Go away!

D'Angelo.

Found something?

I was right.

Enrico didn't tell us the whole truth.

- I'll wait for you at the station. - Okay.

I'll wear yours on and you'll wear mine.

That's for the matching tattoo you didn't do.

Oh, God...

Vane?

Did you do it?

It didn't hurt.

I told you so.

Listen, I...

I need to talk to you.

Shoot.

If you get angry and stop talking to me, I'd get it.

It's really...

Those messages on Elena's profile,

before they found her...

That was me.

What? What do you mean?

I thought that Elena had left for good, once and for all.

I envied her.

I thought, "Fuck, she had the balls to do it."

I swear.

I knew what she meant when she said she was suffocating here.

I'm sorry.

I don't know why I did it.

At least you got her.

I didn't.

I've never felt so stupid and useless.

Maybe I'm the wrong one, who likes it here.

I feel protected by this shitty place.

I never understood your pain either. I'm sorry.

There's something else.

I didn't tell anyone, but...

I'll go crazy if I keep it inside.

SOON THERE'LL BE THREE OF US

Gio?

Hey.

Everything okay?

Gio, can we talk?

It's about Dad.

What did he do now?

He's a piece of shit. You were right.

Why?

Ludo is pregnant.

I found out on Insta.

He didn't even have the balls to tell us, you know?

Well, we knew.

What the fuck does that mean?

We thought he'd tell you.

What the fuck, Gio? Fuck off!

Christ, I'm fucking sick of you!

Elena is fucking dead, do you get it?

- Fuck! - What's she got to do with it?

What's Elena got to do with it?

Do I have to get killed to get some attention?

Fuck you, Giorgio!

Go on.

The second DNA is not Ricotta's.

We have our "Unknown 1".

Okay, send him packing.

Done.

You? How did it go?

I can't talk now. I'll tell you later.

Bye.

- Good morning, Anna. - Morning.

Can I talk to Enrico for a moment?

No, he's not well. I'd rather you don't.

- Just a few questions. - Not without his lawyer.

My husband doesn't want to.

Enrico is of age.

Let's ask him.

- Can we talk alone? - Yes.

Don't worry, Mom. Five minutes.

It's okay.

- Thanks. - Wait there.

My neighbor in Cassino called me.

He told me you were there.

It's normal during an investigation.

He wasn't home when Elena went missing. He's no witness.

That's not why I'm here, Enrico.

I'm here for the exam.

- I went to the university. - Yeah.

And? What?

And since you started Law school you didn't take any exams.

Dad would kill me if he knew.

I don't know why.

I keep studying like a madman.

Only Elena knew. It was our secret.

But I swear to God, I was studying the night she went missing.

I studied all night.

Then I woke up and I actually went to uni. I swear.

I know, there are many witnesses.

You sure you didn't take any drugs?

In order to study, stay awake,

or for Elena to keep you company?

- No. - No.

Is there anyone among your friends

who takes amphetamines?

No.

Enrico, I don't know if you're covering for someone,

but that person could've killed Elena.

Chiara, as far as I know,

no one takes amphetamines in my group.

Okay. Thanks.

Thank you.

Hey.

Ricotta just got off at the bus stop in front of the bar.

Okay, coming.

Vanessa.

What's going on?

I lied to you.

About the night Elena died.

I know who she was with that night.

Go away!
