Let me fix this document then we'll go down to the beach.

I've got a difficult case tomorrow, I gotta finish it.

I can't stay here any longer.

What?

I really care about you.

A lot.

What does that mean?

I don't love you anymore.

It's not easy living together at first.

You're only making things harder.

Is there someone else?

No.

You're stuck to your phone like a teenager.

That's not it.

Things don't always go the way we want.

Is it Malik?

You didn't get it.

Malik's got nothing to do with it.

I'm talking about me. I'm sorry, it's over.

Now who is it?

-It's Sunday. -I gotta talk to you.

What happened?

-Blondie! -I recognized the voice.

That's why it's all clean!

-It's clean because I cleaned. -I'll make you a coffee.

Explain to him that my being here means nothing.

How can I? I only figured it out now myself.

Women... first they give in, then they make you pay for it.

He gave in, not me.

I'll tell you tomorrow.

Where are you going? Come over here.

And so?

They're investigating me.

How do you know?

Santagata told me, they tried to involve him.

-Who? -Carta.

But De Franchi's leading the investigation.

She's a bitch and he's worse than she is.

If only I could get Bosca's bullet...

From today on you're done, I don't want you to go on.

What are you talking about?

-It's getting dangerous. -I'll be careful.

I'm with you.

Luca?

Luca, is that you?

A QUIET FAMILY

Are you down there?

Shit!

I'm waiting for the medical examiner to do the forensic tests.

-Hi, Marco. -Good morning, Inspector.

-And so? -The victim's name's Cristiano Tiani.

35 years old, his throat was slit.

The shop owner found him, Paolo Cianco.

The surveillance cameras were disabled.

-Hi, Alba. -Good morning.

The door was shut but not bolted and the alarm disabled.

Who's got the keys, other than him?

The shopkeeper and the mother, who's the shop owner.

Recently Cianco asked the victim to do some handyman work,

there was a leak.

-What do we know about the shopkeeper? -His name's Luca Govini.

It's Sunday so he wasn't there, we're trying to reach him.

Cianco swung by to pick up a gift for his partner's daughter and...

-Malik? -He's on his way.

Listen...

Has anyone questioned you about me lately?

-Like Carta? -No. Why?

If it happens, I wanna know.

Keep your mouth shut about it.

Good morning.

We're looking for Govini, the shopkeeper.

-I'll ask if they found him. -All right, thanks.

-Paolo Cianco. -He's my colleague.

-We're going in. -All right.

Here we are.

No murder weapon, the victim had his cell phone, wallet

and the keys to the shop.

The safe was not opened, he didn't manage to open it in time.

What's down there?

A basement space, but there are no traces of blood.

-Thank you. -You're welcome.

Alba?

He died between midnight and 2:00 a.m.,

his major arteries were severed in one clean blow.

-I don't know with what, but not a knife. -Did he defend himself?

I think so, he has scratches on his hands and arms.

Some are old.

The wife's victim is here, I've no idea who told her.

-What do I do? -I got it.

-My husband's in there! -Bear with me.

Ma'am! Deputy Inspector Malik Soprani.

I'll let you know more after the autopsy.

Something worrying you?

-No. -You sure?

Yeah. Listen...

-Now we even got 'em in the police! -Go back home!

He's my husband! Don't touch me, African!

I won't touch you, but I can't let you in there.

Help me, my husband's in there!

I'm inspector Guerrieri, come with me.

Malik, I'm sorry.

Cristiano went out after dinner to finish up a job.

He knew it'd be a late one, so I went to bed.

This morning I saw he hadn't come home and I started calling him.

-Are you alright enough to go on? -Yes.

Do you know if your husband ever argued with the jewelry shop owner?

-Was he paid for this job? -Yes, she paid him right away.

We really needed that money, we have three small children.

The company he worked for closed, we don't know how to go on.

-Was he supposed to do this job alone? -Yes.

He was always a do it yourself kinda guy.

This way.

Are you the owners of the bazaar? Deputy Inspector Soprani.

I've got a few questions for you.

-Are you always open Sundays? -Always.

-What time do you open? -At 9:00 a.m., the cops were already here.

Do you live here?

One door down.

Go back inside!

-Who's she? -My sister.

She's frightened, better she doesn't see certain things.

-Does she work here? -No, she's a student.

Thanks.

I've seen that woman before. They're all racist in this neighborhood.

But we've bought everything up.

He asked me if Carta had questioned me about him.

-What questions? -I don't know.

But he seemed kind of weird, he was lost in thought.

-What is it? Do I have crumbs? -No...

You're...

You look nice, with your hair like that.

-My hair's been like this for 20 years. -Then you've looked nice for 20 years.

Good morning, kids.

-Muzo? -Here I am!

This is Luca Govini, the shopkeeper of the jewelry shop.

It's a recent picture from his profile.

We tried to reach him, but he's nowhere to be found.

Thanks.

-The owner of the shop? -Everything seems fine.

He lives with his partner in Settebagni, she has a furniture store.

They got back from a trip to Fiuggi this morning.

-The phone records? -Already requested.

For both the victim and the owner, but it's Sunday, so...

What do I care if it's Sunday? Can't they work on Sunday?

I'll insist. It's Sunday...

I got them to give me the victim's cell phone.

Look who called him during the night?

Luca Govini, the shopkeeper. Go get him.

Luca stopped by last night at eight to change

and I didn't see him again.

-Did he say where he was going? -Dinner with a friend, then to a disco.

-What's his friend's name? -Francesco Dafforti.

I spoke to him, he left Luca at the disco at two-thirty, he was tired.

I'm worried, my brother would never sleep elsewhere without telling me.

-Do you live together? -Yes.

It hasn't been long, I moved after my separation.

Have you ever heard of Cristiano Tiani? Did Luca ever mention him?

No, I don't know him and I've never even heard his name.

-Did he have a girlfriend? -I think so.

Living together, you pick up on certain things.

The phone ringing at night, texts...

-Guerrieri, how's it going here? -Good.

I figured out how his throat was slit.

So what's wrong with you?

I had a fight with Riccardo.

-Did you break up? -Yes.

But I don't wanna bring you down.

You're not, I was actually starting to get into it.

Tell me about the wound.

It was a hand grinder, the blade seems to match up.

Excellent.

I'm taking a break, if you need me in the next two hours, do it yourself.

All right.

I highlighted all contact made between the shopkeeper and the victim.

There are two texts: at 8:07 p.m. and at 10:01 p.m. Here are the unanswered calls that the guy made to Tiani.

If he kept on calling him, he must've not known he was dead.

But they might've been accomplices.

Or maybe he called him to set up an alibi.

The shopkeeper spent the previous evenings

sending himself texts from this number,

but he didn’t do it yesterday evening nor last night.

Who does the number belong to?

-To Lian Hu. -The girl from the bazaar.

Request phone records for this number and check on Govini.

Muzo, let's go down to the bazaar.

-Hi. -Hi.

-Are you leaving? -Just a quick sandwich. -Any news on the case? -Yes.

-Is my father there? -He went out.

-You can tell me. -All right.

Cristiano Tiani.

This could be the weapon that killed him.

It's a hand grinder.

-Did you find anything else? -No, I still have a lot of work to do.

-Take it. -No, this is for you guys.

Thanks.

All right, see you around.

Yes.

Good morning.

-Is your sister here? -Why?

In China, do you respond to questions with other questions?

I dunno, I was born in Italy and I never go to China.

All right, I have to talk to her, go call her.

Lian, the police, they wanna talk to you.

My wife got a new cell, I'd like to buy her a cover for it.

Gimme some suggestions.

Is this your boyfriend?

No.

It's true, I might be a policeman,

but I also have a daughter, who's right about your age.

And I can see when she doesn't want to tell me something.

Luca and I are just friends.

But you send each other a ton of texts

and call at any time of day or night.

If you know where he is, tell me.

I dunno anything.

Dad, the men are from the police.

We need to keep an eye on her, have Lisi stake her out.

-What did she tell you? -Nothing.

She's afraid of her father and brother.

That's all? I looked at covers for a half an hour!

-How come? -A little something for Olga.

Yellow and hot pink? Nice and plain, simple!

But she's young!

-May I? -Do you need to ask?

I'm sorry things went this way.

Thanks for telling me!

Here is where you should add: "I hope we can stay friends".

I didn't come for that reason.

For what then?

I don't like to lie.

You're right, it's Malik.

I've fallen in love with him.

I'm the one leaving now.

I'll stay away today and tomorrow, so you have time to get your stuff outta here.

When I come back I don't wanna find anything left of yours here.

The report from Forensics just came in.

And what does it say?

Things we already know.

Well then...

Actually not.

You know how Tiani disabled the alarm?

With the shopkeepers key.

Listen... Let's do this...

I'll let Carlo know about the alarm.

And I'll relieve Lisi this evening.

Carlo.

Weren't you supposed to relieve Lisi?

The jewelry shop alarm was disabled with the shopkeeper's key.

Did your phone break, or what?

No, but since you're under investigation...

The less I call you, the better.

-The report on the bullet comes today. -How'd you find out?

-I'm not the one who found out. -Oh please, Mario!

I already chewed Olga out for it.

She heard us talking and...

Anyway, she said she was very careful.

Dad?

Alba.

-Can I sleep here tonight? -Honey, this is your home.

-I had a fight with Riccardo. -You don't have to explain a thing.

Come here.

-Have you eaten? -No.

I'm making a little sauce

and you've come just in time to set the table.

Oh yeah!

It's Malik.

-Hi, how are you? -Good, and you?

-Everything's good. -I need a favor.

Are you able to get into the public works archives?

Yes, of course.

The building site where they found those bones...

-Where they found the skeleton? -Yes.

I'd like to know what building site was on it before that, from '93 on.

All right, I'll call you or...

An e-mail would be just fine, thanks.

Here you go, home-delivered dry cleaning.

-You want me to hang it up or you do it? -I'll do it, mom.

Has something happened? You seem nervous.

I've gotten myself into a bad situation.

-Work-related? -Yes.

I was asked to investigate my boss and I accepted.

-What did he do? -He might've committed murder.

-You're a policeman, what could you do? -Refuse.

I thought "better me than someone else", and I couldn't accept it...

He's the type who breaks rules, but...

But?

Now I'm the one who's cheating, lying and I don't like it.

-If you feel so bad, pull out. -I just can't.

I need to know the truth.

Look how good you are! -Come here. -Who is that?

Who's there?

There he is!

Blow a kiss to mommy!

Kiss!

One, two, three!

Good girl!

Here we come!

And two!

Open up.

I'm here to relieve you.

Thanks, but I'm still holding up.

Then I'll stay with you, four eyes are better than two.

I have more team spirit in me than you think,

but it's not easy working with Carlo.

I’ve been working with him just fine for 30 years.

I know, but he's always tense.

-I know he hasn't had an easy life. -That's right.

Was Alba little when her mother died?

Just over a year.

How did she die?

An accident.

I'm off to get a coffee.

Everything you need is in there: photo and file with all the details.

Mario's already got everything.

If they find out you went into the server for Forensics...

Don't worry, I know what I'm doing.

I don't want you to sabotage your career because of me.

He just couldn't get over this bullet thing,

because he couldn't help you anymore.

I know the trouble he can get into when he's anxious.

How are things between the two of you?

The other night he took my cell and rifted through it from A to Z.

I pretended to be sleeping,

that's just how he is.

It's the final fireworks, he's changing.

-I know what he's like. -Me too.

What a dummy!

There she is.

Luca?

I missed you so much.

Luca Govini, you're under arrest!

-Put your hands up and come forward. -Run!

Stop!

Luca! Stop!

Stop!

Stop. You're done running.

You thought you could screw me over?

Move it.

Where's Lian? Where did you take her?

-Why did you kill Tiani? -I didn't kill him.

Then why'd you run away? I had to chase after you.

-You've got blood on you. -Because I touched him.

That's why I'm dirty.

Did you wanna give him mouth to mouth resuscitation?

I'll tell you everything,

but let Lian go.

You talk, then we'll see.

Lian and I wanted to run away together,

but we don't have a dime.

Tiani was worse off than us so we decided to clean out the jewelry shop.

Did Lian know?

Yes.

Lian, if you care about Luca, tell me what you know.

Did you hear what I said?

I'm doing this for you and Luca.

Here I am, I got here as fast as I could.

Hi.

I told her she ought to collaborate.

Luca didn't do anything. That's not the truth, but it's something.

If he didn't do anything, why did he run?

When I saw that Tiani wasn't arriving I called him

with no luck,

so I went to the jewelry shop.

And he was there.

Dead, with his throat slit.

I went up to him to take the keys

to deactivate the alarm.

And I bolted.

-Was Lian with you? -No, she wasn't.

She's got nothing to do with the robbery, the idea was mine and Tianis'.

How did she know where you were, if you didn't hear from each other?

That's our place.

It's awful, I know...

at least there we have our own world.

Why is your family against you're being together?

Because he's Italian and penniless.

I was with someone else, before.

A Chinese? Were you supposed to marry one of your own kind?

My father had it all organized.

That's what my family's like,

I have to do what they say.

Lian, how are you? How did they treat you?

Good.

Take her to get her motorbike and accompany her back home.

You were never here.

What do you mean? And the police report?

You afraid they're going to report us?

-Go with him. -And Luca?

-Luca, we'll see. -Can I say goodbye to him?

No, but if he's innocent you'll be together for the rest of your lives.

Who'd ever simulate a robbery and give the accomplice the alarm key?

An idiot, it's like writing “inside job” all over your face.

And do you think Luca Govini is an idiot?

-He didn't seem like one. -Then he's a liar.

You were right, I do better with walls than I do with people.

What little Lian said, she told to Cantabella.

She said nothing important anyway,

your ego is safe.

Alba.

-Everything OK? -Yes.

I found traces of skin and plaster under Tiani's nails.

He's a plasterer.

It's weird because it's as if he had scratched a wall.

Plus, from the skin fragments we can discover the killer's DNA.

Ask Luca if he's willing to do a saliva test.

If he refuses, I'll request it to the DA.

Hi, honey.

-Have you detained anyone yet? -The shopkeeper from the jewelry shop.

He has a thing with the daughter of the Chinese neighbor.

I can do the sample and run it over to Forensics, it's on my way.

All right.

If you accept, your DNA will be used only for the investigation.

All right, I'll do it, this way you'll see that I didn't kill him.

-Are you a cop? -No, I'm a doctor.

Lian also studies medicine.

Sit down.

Open your mouth.

Done.

How long's it gonna take? You can't keep me here for no reason.

You attempted robbery.

-Did you wanna steal for her? -You can't ask questions.

I have nothing to hide.

The only thing I'm guilty of is having fallen in love with her,

but I'm too poor and Italian for her family.

Let's go.

We're done.

Go ahead.

His movement confirms what Luca told Carlo.

From the disco he went to the jewelry shop, he stayed ten minutes

then he went to where we arrested him.

Therefore when Tiani was killed he was at the disco.

Yes, the friend and bodyguard confirm it.

Are you with us, Guerrieri?

Of course, madam.

-May I? -Please do.

The DNA under the nails doesn't match up with that of the shopkeepers'.

-The guy must be released. -I don't agree.

He’s only accomplice to a robbery that never occurred.

He lied, he's gotta tell us what his real plan was.

I'd rather send him home.

There's more to this, lemme understand.

We'll tail him.

Then I'm gonna go talk to him.

Malik.

In the Naple's depository there's Guerrieri's old gun.

I'll know by tomorrow if he shot Bosca.

How 'bout you?

Nothing, I'm onto another lead.

I wanna find out if the date of Bosca's death

coincides with the disappearance of Guerrieri's wife.

Great, thanks.

You gotta keep calm.

They're gonna frame me before I find out something on Bosca's death.

It's important to know when he died.

Check the Torrevecchia building site and keep Olga outta this.

Without her, we won't have the bullet.

-I don't want her to risk it. -You're the one risking it.

And don't look at Carta like you wanna kill her!

I can't help it.

Thanks.

You're free to go.

Is there something you wanna tell me?

Lian?

I kept my promise, she's home.

-Does her family know she was here? -No.

Tell me, what are you so afraid of?

Nothing.

What's gonna happen now?

For now, you're an inside man on a heist that never happened,

so we'll see how things unfold,

but you have to remain at our disposal, and don't screw up.

All right.

I'll give you your cell back, so you can call Lian.

-Are we at a dead end? -No, we've got a couple of certainties.

Luca's not telling it like it is, Lisi's on his tail.

And the other certainty?

The plaster under the nails.

He was a plasterer,

but he must've washed his hands between one job and a robbery.

-If you need me, I'll be on my cell. -Should I come with you?

No need.

Water, pee and I'll be back.

What happened?

Did he find out about you and Alba?

There's nothing between Alba and me.

And no, he didn't find out.

He's pissed at me because he pocketed a piece of evidence to cover a friend

and I got pissed off.

He's always been like this.

He does it his way, remember last night?

No need to file a report, then no report.

He did it for the girl, it's not for nothing...

Hi there!

Well, look who's here!

We need to have a little chat.

Cantabella, take it over to Forensics.

They also have to run tests on Tiani's clothes

and check to see if the powder on my sweater is the same.

The jewelry shop basement and Chinese basement are adjoining.

I went in and I did what I think Tiani must've done. So the jewelry shop was an excuse for getting in there?

I'd say so.

-But what for? -I dunno.

For sure something that would've been more lucrative for them

than the jewelry shop.

-A black-market bank. -Those haven't been around for years.

Maybe something like that, but smaller.

Let's wait for the clothes' examination, I'm sure he got in,

then somebody cleaned it all up.

It's Lisi.

I see.

Luca Govini ran away out the back and left his cell phone at home,

to make us think that he hadn't moved.

I was guarding the way in, I had no way of knowing he would've run out the back.

The sister?

Luca had told her he wanted to sleep.

-That's Luca's phone? -He left it there.

He called Lian and an unknown number.

-Have you had it identified? -It's a false contract.

Under the name of a nursing home.

There's a third person.

Otherwise, there's no explaining this false contract.

We've pinpointed Lian, she's where we stopped her yesterday.

Request the phone tracking of the unknown number and have it located.

-Malik, let's go. -Let's get down to it.

Lian.

Come with me out of here.

Let him go.

Come along.

He was beaten to death.

When did it happen?

Not long ago, rigor mortis has just set in.

I'm finished.

Poor kids.

I miss you.

Here, something hot to drink.

I know the pain you're feeling,

I've been through it myself.

And also the anger.

Then I realized the anger would not bring back

the person I had lost.

But you can still do something for Luca

and for yourself, too.

You can help us so justice is done.

I'll take you somewhere warmer.

My brother did it.

Cheng and Luca had made a deal.

Tiani was supposed to do the job and they would've split everything.

What job? In the basement?

Do you keep valuables down there, money?

Yes, my father keeps the money he lends there,

but he's never trusted my brother.

Cheng said he was fed up.

But why did he kill Luca?

And then, did the two of them kill Tiani together?

No, my father was away from Rome,

but he came back early.

He found Tiani in the basement and he killed him.

Yes, he chased him into the jewelry shop.

Cheng pretended to not know anything.

I don't understand why he killed Luca.

Luca blackmailed him for money to not tell my father anything in exchange.

-We wanted to run away. -Come here.

As far as the plasterer is concerned, Lian told the truth.

The DNA under Tiani's nails belongs to Lian's father.

-And how's the girl doing? -Like someone who's lost everything.

We shouldn't have released that guy.

No DA would've validated the detention.

It depends on how things would've been put forth.

Before certain decisions are made, things should be reflected on better.

He always manages to irritate me.

But he was right about the guy.

It wasn't Guerrieri's gun that shot Bosca.

The ballistic report just came in.

De Franchi won't give up.

There are too many things from Guerrieri's past that don't add up.

-What have you come up with? -Nothing yet.

Maybe you shouldn't persevere with Carlo.

Maybe it was another policeman's gun.

Good morning.

-Should we go get a coffee? -No, I wanna spend some time with Alba.

I'm gonna go pick her up.

You're late this morning.

But you waited for me.

Always.

I can't be without you.

I'm not with Riccardo anymore.

I just couldn't.

Not when I have someone else on my mind.

Dad...

Dad, wait.
