Noir comme le souvenir (1995) - full transcript

Seventeen years after the disappearance of the little Garance, her parents are harassed and intimidated by a mysterious voice that mimics that of their lost little girl.

...

BLACK FOR REMEMBRANCE

You should perhaps dance with Chris,
Your eyes are devouring him.

Maybe, but it's Caroline you are looking at.

Garance!

Your dress is like mine!

My parents are richer than yours

Rogue!

Thief!

Mom!

Pamela has torn my dress
and has hurt Bilbo.
eleven
00:02:14.510 --> 00:02:17.661
It's your fault,
you must have made the same dress for both.



Oh, no, Pamela's family !

The billions have gotten onto their head!

- How about going to the swing?
- Bilbo says it's OK if you give me a condy.
fifteen
00:02:29,750 --> 00:02:32.469
Garance, "candy" is said,
not "condy"

Alright, I'm going to go make dinner.

- Who is with me?
- Charmed.

Not me! It was my fault,
I'll go with you

What is that?

Perhaps a dog
has fallen into a trap.

Sometimes people make such noises.

Don't move, I'll go see.
2. 3
00:03:08.670 --> 00:03:10,786
And if it's a wolf, dad?

Garance ...

There are no wolves in Beaumont.

Nothing can happen here.
You know it's our magic forest.

Hey, you look like my clown.



I can't, clown.

I can't move,
Dad does not want me to.

Is it a surprise from Dad?

It's him that wants me to come with you

Pamela!

Pamela!
3. 4
00:04:40.590 --> 00:04:41.784
Garance?

Stay there, thief.

Pamela!

Come here quickly!

- What were you doing?
- Nothing, Mom.

BODY OF Garance CORDAY FOUND:

THE GIRL WAS BURNT AND DECAPITATED

Garance Corday murder:
Inspector Vasseur closes file

17 YEARS LATER

Chris, did you bring the pizzas?

If you keep drinking
I don't know what I'll do here.
4. 5
00:06:02.270 --> 00:06:04.989
Today's a day that hurts me.

Do you understand?

I want to forget it.

That's Chris Corday,
He comes with a different woman every evening.

What an fine jacket,
Where did you get it?

- I've sewn it myself.
- You see? Your daughter sews.

Bravo, you do very well.

All my friends have one as well.

I have to do the same
if not I'll look like an idiot.

- The coffee is cold.
- He was punctual.

Aren't you hungry, want to eat?

- The croissants are frozen.
- Then go get some fresh ones.

Always me.
And her? Everything is for her.

I exist too!

- One day I'll give you a slap.
- Of course not.

But of course.

- What are you doing today?
- I've to see Lucie at the store.

- I'll drop you.
- No, that's fine

I'm expecting Fidelia

- Fidélia?
- Yes.

What do you have against her? She's very
good. She even taught in Haiti.

Voodoo, no doubt.

What happens to you?
You look sad.

it's Garance's birthday.

- I'm sorry.
- That's OK

- I'm coming.
- Don't be too late.

Let's go.

He smokes, He smokes!

After school I want to go to Jenny's place.
Her mother's making Spaghetti.

- And she's going to pick you up?
- Of course, she's even driving me back home.

Garance.
My little.

I am not late, am I?

Not at all.

Today would been 23 today.

In my country the dead don't have an age.

Let her sleep in peace.

Yes, I'll leave her.

I always take flowers to her grave on her birthday.

While I came in just now, I had
a feeling of being suffocated.

The house must be haunted by an evil eye.

Mom...

Shit!

Mom...

Lucie, is that you?

- Mom...
- Garance?

I find them!

Pamela, look, the cushions.

it's an express delivery.

- I hope the work is not.
- They're exquisite, right?

Do you think that will suit my dining room?

I've changed everything.

Lacquer and shantung, nothing more.

Yes, China is fashionable right now.

Caroline,

Pamela precedes fashion.

- Don't follow.
- Let's not exaggerate.

That's just a small talent in anticipation.

Tina!
Sorry, I have to go.

Take care of the lady.

See you soon
in your magnificent home.

With pleasure.

I'll start with the new arrivals

Come see the tones in the light

Oh, no, it's very ordinary.

You think so?

Why did you bolt off like that?
Do you work at Fedex now?

I'm sorry, it's that when I was in the basement
I had a hallucination.

- Can you accompany me to the cemetery?
- Is Garance's birthday!

- Of course!
- Thank you.

- Pamela is very pretty.
- She's pretty but thick

With a fortune
and endless bad taste.

Good for you
But reduce the price a bit, huh?

What do you think? Decorating is not
selling rugs.

I forgot Pamela
went to kindergarten with Garance.

- She envied her books, clothes ...
- And her father too.

Remember how she looked at Chris?

Chris always had success
Garance with friends.

And with Pamela it still lasts.

If you saw her flirting
as he bought her a painting.

If I was Chris I'd worry.

Oh, Chris ...

- Are you still seeing him?
- Don't.

As usual flirty
and a little less drinking.

When I think
what a good husband it was ...

Do you often think of him?

No.

- Shall we go?
- Yes.

Can I borrow this?

Can you lend me this? Thank you.

Look!

Chris has brought her violets.

She liked them so much ...

The angel, it's been beheaded

Like Garance.

Gimme that.

To Garance.
Dark as the memory.

What is happening, Lucy?

- What is it, Caroline?
- Father, Garance ...

- Garance?
- She's back.

Come.

I'm sure you think
I dreamt it all.

If it wasn't you, I wouldn't believe it.
I'll get you something to drink.

He had gotten into the dresser.

The window!

it's the clown ...

Garance.

He had disappeared with her

I don't want Mélinda to see it.

- Hello, Lucy.
- Hello.

- I saw Melinda at the dance school.
- Once a year does not hurt.

- Window...
- Someone's thrown a stone and broken it.

I've thrown the garden.

- What are you talking about?
- Tom will investigate this.

- Investigate?!
- Caroline will explain it. It's not funny

Lucy!

What's up?

Garance's clown was in bed.

Lucy, are you sure it wasn't a thief?

No. Tell mom
I'm taking these clothes for Pamela.

Mom, it wasn't a thief!

What happened to Sultan?

- Are you sure you won't come to the party?
- No, I won't.

You'll do well.
Greet so many freeloaders ...

What is this, a sample
for the curtains?

I found it in the garden today.

I was wearing it the day
Garance was kidnapped.

She had the same.

- We fought because of him
- It was 17 years ago, my love. You told me.

The prescription.

And those cherries have had time
to mature. Don't think of it anymore.

I'll be back soon.

Anyone there?

Duchess!

Duchess! Come!

Where are you, filthy cat?

- I never get used to this.
- At my apartment?

I'm a cop
and I live with a star.

Well, I've gotten used to a cop.

- I was a little ??? with ginger.
- ginger?

Excuse me

You have forsaken
the keys at the door.

- Am I disturbing you?
- Not at all!

- You want a drink?
- Please.

Do you want too?

- Thank you.
- Sit down.

I wanted to ask you

what do you think
of what happened.

it's clear that someone wants
to brutally bring back the memory of Garance.

The tomb, the statuette,
flowers, the note.

What I see

is that Garance's death has
ended the Cordays' marriage,

I wonder if now

someone wants to end mine

using the supposed ghost

of Garance.

But who could it be?

I can't think of another that ...

Chris Corday.

He's impossible,
He's incapable of that.

- Go ...
- Go?

- No, nothing.
- "Go", "nothing"?

Forgive me.

I'm sorry.

- I just needed to talk to someone.
- it's normal.

- Tom, could you look into this?
- Of course

Well, I'll get going

Forgive me.

Yes?

Oh my god

Classes began yesterday.

Today we celebrate
the new school year,

and we hope that our students are
as competitive as possible.

And now, our little students
will perform their greatest success

with sealed lips

That way, there won't be any mistakes in text.

What happened?

They have murdered Pamela
and they tried to burn the house.

- We should not speak ill of the dead.
- Yes, but what a horrible end.

It's Garance,
She is back with a vengeance.

- You're Mélinda, I know you.
- Oh yeah?

- Who you are?
- Garance.

Take your mask off.

I've never seen in school.

- There is another thing ...
- What?

- David came home last night.
- But he said he had an emergency.

- He didn't tell you because he suspected Chris.
- Of what?

- Of all that you told me.
- But that's not possible. How can you say that?

Jealousy goes with love.

Calm down.

I'm off to the store.
And then, these children get on my nerves.

Good that I have been escaped.

- Did I sing well, Lucy?
- Yes, my little nightingale.

- Do nightingales like candy?
- Yes.

Fidélia!

I have to go,
Could you stay and watch over Melinda.

That's why I'm here!

Mom, I want a "condy"

Garance!

Garance!

Garance ...

Mom, will you buy me
a pink and green ring?

If you want but why?

I promised it for
my new friend, Garance.

- For Whom?
- Garance is her name.

Since when do you you know her?

I met her today, at the party.

And how is she?

Gorgeous!

Blonde with eyes blue
like the heaven.

Well, now go to sleep.

Good morning, Ms. Longville!

Hello Kitty.

Have I changed that much?

Don't be angry.

I haven't seen you in 5 years, I think.

I have the right to be surprised.

I had no intention of coming,

and besides, I don't want to bother you.

It's been long since anyone bothered me

I get up early and alone.

As an eternal bachelor.

I need to speak with you.

Everything is in place.

- Want some coffee?
- Yes.

I saw Genevieve Longville
in her garden.

Oh, that ...

You won't see her elsewhere.

She is a vegetarian,
she likes only her plants.

And adores only her brother.

She has a brother? I didn't know it.

Yes, a certain Guillaume.

You've found your armchair

Yes.

He lived a
long time in Italy I think.

He returned

About ten years ago,
when his wife died

Poor old man.

Swapped spaghetti
for boiled vegetables.

The old woman is a witch with herbal tea

Water and you
you have never been friends.

And Dr. Wahl

Are you still happy?

I hope sometimes
he's in your arms.

I didn't come here
to talk about my family.

But Garance.

- Geneviève!
- Yes!

- Who were you talking to?
- Well, you'll see. Come on over!

it's the Cordays' cat .

No longer getting into the bulk.

You never liked anyone
stepping on your flowerbeds.

Nobody likes it. Why would
gardeners like it?

You should take some rest

You haven't stopped all day.

He has a visitor.

I thought I heard a car arrive.

Probably another woman.

Nope.

It's his ex-wife.

You know, the girl's mother

the one who was kidnapped.

And killed.

Come, drink your tea
or it will cool down.

And think
that they dared to accuse me!

The daughter of a judge!

They didn't accuse you
they suspected you, it's different.

You were questioned, as were all
those who knew the girl.

it's normal.

And you were declared innocent.

You know, Guillaume,

that girl had beautiful eyes.

Laughing, malicious.

Just like our mother,

when Dad was gone.

The voice in the basement was
of Garance, I could swear.

- Someone is trying to scare you.
- Maybe you?

Then who?

- Who can do that?
- There are pervese people all around.

And many know our story.

The old owl nextdoor,
David, Lucy ... ah, sorry!

You make me talk nonsense.

Nothing will bring Lili back

If only I hadn't left her alone ...

They knocked you down,
you couldn't have done anything.

I had left her to look for an animal

which didn't exist.

Me and my taste for illusions.

You know, sometimes
I keep hearing that cry.

It wasn't human.

Garance's killing was premeditated.

It could have happened
anytime.

That does not erase my remorse.

I just wanted to keep you abreast.

- We're going to kill you!
- With this you'll forget everything!

What do I do
to meet you! I hate this bike!

You can't be without me, huh?

No, I wanted to see Caro
about the story of the clown.

I told me you saw clowns
all over.

- I don't see what it has to do with Pamela.
- I'll come to that later.

But the doll was Garance's.

You recognized it.
3. 4. 5
00:28:02.310 --> 00:28:04.062
Well, that far away ...

I hadrly saw it.

Then come see it up close

Look it her well,
I'm sure you'll see my point.

You always had a craze for safes

It's not there anymore

And last night,
was it a collective hallucination?

It was Garance's clown
I'm sure I put it here!

And the bouquet of black orchids
in the grave?

I returned the next day
and it was gone.

Remember what I told you about
evil spirits?

They are trying to enter
homes uninvited.

Nope, never let them enter!

It's for me!

- It's Garance.
- Snow White lives with dwarfs.

d-w-a-r-f-s, don't you believe me?

It is what they dictated to me
well, almost.

I have to leave you,
Mom just arrived.

Okay

Who was that?

Garance, she asked me to kiss you

- Do you know her number, where she lives?
- No I don't.

I just know that she lives
in a wooden house.

- Something happened?
- Yes.

Excuse me a moment.

- Mélinda?
- She has a new friend.

She's 6, blonde, has
blue eyes and is called Garance.

- That name is fashionable since 10 years
- She said ...

- Doctor...
- Just a moment.

She says she lives in a wooden house
and that her father is a painter.

- Did she say that?
- Yes.

I'm scared
and the clown is gone too.

That's my fault.

I threw it away.

Why?

I don't know...

It seemed hideous
I threw it in the street.

Bravo, it was my only
physical evidence.

Perhaps it was Fidélia who left it on the bed.

You don't believe me!

And besides, you don't care.

Garance wasn't your daughter.

And I'm not Chris.

I am only a second choice.

- It was a beautiful funeral.
- They have brought out a singer.

- They have the money.
- Yeah

Lucy, how strange
to see you in the church.

Yes, in our business
it's difficult to have a real clientele.

- But we are open on Sundays.
- me too

but my customers aren't loyal and
the loyal aren't good customers.

Confess, the alms are no longer what they used to be!

- And you, Caroline, how about you?
- I'm fine

- You're finally at peace.
- What do you know about it?

Dead or alive, we are always tormented.

A mystery

Well thanks for being
increasingly opaque.

If you need anything, I'm here.

it's very long, go sit,
I'll take care of the parents.

I'm sorry, Gilles.

- I hope Tom finds out who did this
- Yes, it's very much his intention.

For Pamela,
dark as the memory.

- aren't you feeling well?
- No. I'm not well.

Come out,
It's suffocating here.

Take the bouquet!

Thank you, I'm better. Go on.

You know

I just came out of respect for
Pamela's husband.

- Did you know her?
- No.

I just remember that she was
a rather nasty girl.

I saw recently in a shop.

- You knew her as a child?
- She was a friend of my daughter.

Do you have a daughter that age?

- No, she died, he was 6 years old.
- I didn't know, I

Come, let's go for a walk.

Please.

My car is there.

And you miss your daughter?

I mean to say, the one who died

Yes.

Everyday.

What scared you in the church?

A bouquet of black orchids
with a note:

"For Pamela,
dark as a souvenir. "

it's not very tasteful.

I think it what sent by
Pamela's murderer.

If he sent it
better keep away.

Yes, but what really terrified me

is that I saw an identical bouquet
in my daughter's grave

And you think that the person

who placed the bouquet on your daughter's grave
has something to do with Pamela's death?

And Garance's.
She was also killed.

- And the culprit?
- They never found him.

You never knew who it could be?

No, Tina, no idea.

Let's get out of here, please.

What's the matter?

We're near the site
where my daughter disappeared.

Excuse me.

A house!

They caught him, Tom!

No, everything is fine.

But what happened? Why do you follow me?

I've been thinking.

The bouquet shows that what happened to me
is related to Pamela's death.

- I already know it.
- Do you know anything about the murder?

Stabbed.

By the back. The strange thing is that
he burnt the garden, why?

He didn't want Pamela's body to be destroyed.
The fire is a symbolic act.

I see
Are you the murderer?

Hey listen, she got on my nerves, but not to this extent.

And th ebouquet?

Didn't you bring it? I had asked you to.

I could not...

And the card?
It was written by a child.

Stop it with the kids!

And what of "Dark as the memory"
Can a child write that?

Children copy everything.

Garance had a cat. Leopold.

When he died,
Chris buried and laid flowers on his tomb.

And he told Garance:
"We will put flowers every year

to prove
We don't forget him."

- Orchids.
- Garance ...

We'll put flowers lest we forget.

Caroline, stop it!

You are playing into a crazy game,
you'll go bonkers.

You have to breathe better.

Lucy will help you get a
change of air.

Yes, I love change.

And the blonde girl from school,
I dreamed that too?

I got it.
I'll manage it alone!

You come?

She's right,
Why you don't go search that little girl?

Don't say that.

There are five inspectors
investigating all day, more or less.

I'll wait in the car.

In addition there are thousands of girls blondes,
but only one pretty brunette in this city.

Not this one.
Come, come.

Georges, we must find
Pamela's grave.

I need that bouquet

And the card for Tom.

Come, come.

Come, look.

Georges!

Come.
The bouquet has to be here.

Georges, come here!
We're going home!

Georges, come right now!

I thought this was
non-smoking area.

The police are
above the law.

What are you thinking about?

About Caroline.

- But just as police.
- Fair enough.

You notice that you've never had
to report a theft in miniskirt.

I can't bring myself to believe her.

I saw the bouquet on Garance's tomb
and the doll too.

I can't believe it's the same doll.

The murderer
might have preserved it all these years

But why wait so long?

Garance was 6 years old when she died?

And Mélinda?

How old is she?

Six years.

Do you think that she's in danger?

I don't know.

What are you going to do?

Start from scratch.

From Garance's abduction.
I'll reopen the Corday case files

Fuck...

Hello?

Caroline, stay calm.
Don't move and close the door.

I'm coming

I get it,
You've been terrified.

Calm down, okay?

- What happened?
- I was watching TV, I heard a car ...

- What car, remember the color?
- No, dark.

I ran ...

The car was far
and I got hit on head.

- And then in the gut.
- A second hit?

I think it was someone small

- Or someone taller but crouching?
- No idea.

Now rest yourself,
everything will be fine. Take him.

I just heard

- Is it serious?
- No, but I can't say that about me.

- How so
- I told you Garance has returned.

The dead don't return, Caroline.
They are fine with God.

And what do you know
if they are with him?

What if they were in a
infinite place, icy, dark,

where they shouted in silence?

And if they felt hatred
and only thought more of revenge?

Calm down.

If Garance has not returned,
Who is persecuting me?

My poor husband,suspects
Garance's father ...

He loves you

- So it's her. She needs me and she is saying it.
- Don't blaspheme more!

Only Jesus has returned
from the dead.

Then pray to him to help me.

Five hundred francs,
tonight at my house, okay?

He must have missed the police,
He began drinking to leave when he quit.

15 years ago,
when closed the Corday case

Garance,
you remember?

Yes and it's curious, he never closed them,
He was a good cop.

Until his wife left.

A good cop
who couldn't find the murderer.

A dog happy
that he came across a bone.

Did no one find it strange that
a cop like him closed the case?

No, because nobody found anything.

And why leave the police?

His wife had left him,
he also had to leave something.

How does he get by?

No idea,
but lives better than me.

Perhaps he had inherited something.

Hi, how are you?
I'm from the home inspector Jerome.

Another brat.

The Corday case, little Garance

Did you hide any clues?

I didn't hide anything.

Can I pee?

Why did you let go of the
track with Geneviève Longville?

I was to follow her.

I received anonymous letters.

- But she had an alibi.
- I know, I read your report. Hello?

No, wait.

What you forgot to say in your report
is that

the alibi was given by
a former employee of the house

who then got an apartment herself.

- Case closed officially.
- Alright

And you leave the police and opens
a firm of detectives right away.

With what money?

I am a saver.

You are not?

I talk to you like a colleague
and you answer like a client. Hello?

Don't touch anything, I'll be there.

Goodbye, colleague,
until next time!

Tina, what happened?

- She was attacked in the basement.
- Where I heard Garance for first time.

Yes, I know.

- Did you see anyone?
- No

I heard noise and I went to see.

I got a blow on the head. I fell
and when I got up there was no one.

- He must have fled from behind.
- He or she.

Any news?

I met the investigator
who handled the case.

He's hiding something,
I'll make him talk.

What do you want?

Tom called me.

I was asked many questions
about Garance's abduction.

Yes, I know,
He has reopened the case.

Why, Caroline?

To understand!
I will never let it go!

But I want to forget!

I have the right!

Then come, a good whiskey
ice, there's nothing better!

Me too
A certain Garance called me

What?

What?
6 o'clock
00:44:54.630 --> 00:44:56.268
Who called you?

A girl's voice.

It was Garance's,
I could swear.

It asked me for help and threatened
me at the same time

I have spent two days without sleeping a wink.

Are you ready to testify to the police?

I am ready to declare it
to the devil.

But would they believe a drunk?

You know, I'm not an easy girl.

If you have picked me up
it's because I wanted to.

Amazing.

A real caravan.

Ony a couch is missing
in your empire

- Where did you find this?
- What?

This clown.

Where did you find it?

But it was in the bed,
it's the first time I've seen it

You carried it in this bag, right?

You left it on the bed
when I was...

- I've never seen it!
- Liar.

The door wasn't locked,
anyone could have entered.

You brought it, didn't you?

You are crazy! I'm out!

Don't touch that car!

Help!

Help!

Caro, don't let David know
how upset you are.

- Is it prohibited?
- No, adviced

Thanks for staying.

And Chris?

He got it on the shoulder
but it's not serious.

You can go in.

Thank you.

What, another jealous friend?

No

How do you know her?

- I was with her at a party.
- There are cuckolds of all kinds.

To kiss my conquest
I saw the clown in bed.

- Garance's.
- it's impossible!

Why?

- Caroline also found him.
- And after that?

I yelled at the girl.

She didn't like and left.

I followed her and they fired at me.

Where is the clown?

In my house.

Everything is related
with the death of Garance.

Can you take care of Lucifer
until my return?

A cat is an ordeal
for a decorator.

Hair on the carpet, scratches
the chairs, but ...

He will be less in danger
with her dog than me.

I'll take care of him.

With Georges and Greg, my place
is already a zoo, so...

It's nothing.

A nightmare.

- Thank you!
- On time.

I was taken by surprise.

- Pamela Gordon was practicing, right?
- She used to come to the church.

You would have heard her confess then?

Hope you won't ask me to betray
the seal of confession?

No, I am not going to.

If we don't exstablish a link
between Pamela and Garance

there might be another victim.

Go to the library and read
"The witness," by Gordon Pamelier.

it's the pseudonym
Pamela Gordon.

Father, have you been
ever in love?

You took me into your car to ask that?

I'm with a woman
amazes me every day.

She's divine, smells good, is ...

- Do you have fire?
- Yes

"The witness" by Gordon Pamelier,
When it was published?

Two years ago.

- Thank you.
- You are welcome.

- I just took a big step.
- Not me

I investigate these kids and they believe that
it's for the TV and want a prize.

Pamela had seen Garance
tied in the car.

She never said anything then
but wrote it all down here.

And where do you live?

- Why is it locked?
- Police Order.

- And the children?
- They've gone home.

- Where is Mélinda?
- There was a bomb scare at school.

I went to look for her.

- And Greg is back?
- Yes.

Thank you.

- Did you fought with your father again?
- I'm like a cockroach here

He's around just for Mélinda
He doesn't care about me

It's not true,
He's a bit awkward but he loves you.

Be nice to him,
if you love me a little.

- Garance, give it to mom.
- Give that to me!

Hi Mom, are you sad
because Dad is hurt?

Who are you?
What do you want?

Oops! Did you live
in this house of jeans?

How do you know it?

Your first husband lived
in this wooden house, right?

- Who told you that?
- Garance.

What is it with you during the past few days?

- Can I see Inspector Tom?
- Just a moment.

Mom...

I researched.

And I found a picture of you
in a white dress

and flowers in her hair.

From the hand of a handsome lord.

Since it wasn't Dad, I asked Greg
and he told me everything.

Tell me, how is called
your daughter who died?

- Do they really cut off her head?
- Did Greg tell you that?

He says her name was Garence
She has risen from the grave to get me.

Your brother sees a lot of TV.

But yes, I had a daughter
and she was called Garance.

- You can go
- Thank you.

My little princess!

- Did you find something, boss?
- Not yet, Commissioner.

I'll get the cat.

- The clown?
- No clown here

I talked to Garance,
Mélinda's friend, it was her voice!

- Sure?
- Yes, and she spoke of the assault on Chris.

How could she know?
It has not come out in any newspaper.

Oops! But what happened?

What is this mess?

- I'm Caroline Wahl, remember me?
- Very well

I was here for the cat,
Chris was attacked the other day.

I know.

The girl came knocking
to my house after the shooting.

- Chris never had a phone.
- Really?

The girl said that when she was knocking,
you didn't weren't sleeping

Come Mélinda.

What? I wasn't sleeping?
And why?

It also seems that you weren't alone.

I was with my brother,
Who else?

- He's here?
- No

It is at a spa for a few days

Does he have rheumatism?

- Who are you?
- Police.

Inspector Jérôme.

I take up the reins from Vasseur,who began the investigation.

I'll never forget him.

His research,
interrogation, what horror!

Have you seen him since?

No

What for?

Who's there?

But what is this?

It can't be,
Garance is dead.

It can't be.

It smells of gasoline!

Guillaume!

Your brother is in the hospital.

Listen to me...

I never wanted anyone's death.

I just tried to fix things.

- With Vasseur.
- Who is Vasseur?

who led
the investigation.

I'll tell you whatever you want,
You'll know the truth.

The truth! Vasseur ...

He's a cop, a crook!

I paid!

Help!

"Along the road, Christina
looked inside the car.

In the backseat, Jennifer
,
gagged, looked on pleadingly.

Christina knew the driver
of the car but hated Jennifer.

Shee left without saying anything to anyone."

So everyone's read this book
except the cops?

It released two years ago,
15 years after case was closed

Genevieve told me about Longville, that
she was suspected but had an alibi.

- Yes, the daughter of a judge.
- Yes, an obsessive puritan

So the daughter went repressed
repression gives rise to murderers.

Do you think the old woman
had read the book and was afraid?

I'm not saying anything
You're the cop.

Shit, this is from Maurizier's!

Look, it's full of knots,
I'm screwed

Not yet.

Are you hungry?

Sorry, I had an emergency.

I saved the baby
but not the mother.

Yes, and the other night
You had an emergency then too.

You went to see Tom, drank,
told nonsense, lies.

I was downbeat

I don't like liars.

When you threw away the clown,

Did you put in the bag
or just placed it on top

I left over, why?

Do you think someone took it,
someone watching the house?

Yes, someone who calls Mélinda
someone called Garance.

By phone
you can always play a recording.

You don't talk with a recording,
How could one know I was going to answer?

Come here.

You know that since
all this began

things have gotten awry

Since you heard that voice,
We don't touch us,

We don't make love ...

Forgive me.

Together we have had two children ...

I'm not Chris, but ...

Leave Chris alone

Are you happy, kitty?

Caroline cares for you well?

If I were a cat!
You see?

Chris Cat.

She'd be taking care of me all day

She'd me pampering me, caressing.

But I'm not Chris,
He is a formidable guy.

Jack, do you remember the cruise

Caroline made
with her parents to Jamaica?

Chris couldn't go.

How was sad, the artist.

So of course ...

months later
Lucy had come to the clinic,

with a big belly.

And a good quack helped her.

Chris had refused a child

And Lucy couldn't have more.

Chris, no ... or Lucy.

Yes, Lucy and Chris,
Chris and Lucy.

Lucy loves Chris.

Like you.

Forever.

Now do you feel better?
Are you okay?

Yes.

Garance was kidnapped months later.

By whom?

Maybe Lucy?

Victor, roll the hose!

Wrap the hose!

Have you seen the castle?
The fire has been cleaned up.

Purified, perhaps.

I don't think the intentions of
the arsonist were pure.

It was a clean work. They found
the old woman tied to the bed.

I have something to tell you.

- Does it hurt? Can you keep painting?
- But yes.

The one who shot me
didn't intend to kill me.

He kept shooting at the house
even after he shot me

I wanted to let off steam, give loose rein
to his rage, not kill me.

You think like Lucy.

A jealous husband.

Jealous husbands
don't leave clowns.

Do you think it could be Garance's murderer?

Yes.

You should leave the city
and go to your family

What for? He'll find us.

He Wants Melinda.

Yes, but he won't get her.

What does it matter to you?
You're not responsible for my daughter.

- So that's what you mean?
- No, it's not that.

I want to tell you that
I know everything about Lucy and you.

You'll never forgive me.

Right, Lili?

I'll keep you abreast of the handwriting analysis.

Lucy and you haven't spoken since two days
are you angry?

Yes, angry to death, as Mélinda would say.

Have you found
the blonde girl?

We have gone to many schools.

And no girl called Garance,
Oh yes, one, but she's black!

And she's taller.

She must be
somewhere in the city.

it's no use locking,

thieves break
in through the window and as for ghosts ...

Give me a brandy please.

There is a way to protect
against ghosts.

like what?

I know a "houngan"
who could invoke a "loa" for you.

I don't understand your jargon, Fidélia.

The "houngan"
is a voodoo priest.

And the "loa"
are the protectors of gods.

Like guardian angels.

And where are
these hidden celestial cops?

Mrs. Wahl,
Mélinda is in danger.

I'll do anything to protect her.

For a "loa"
to join you and your family,

You must participate in a ritual

and let the "loa"
to possess you over a trance.

Fidélia ...

Garance was killed.

Her soul has returned to take revenge.

It has taken its time.

You've given
it the force to return.

To save the dead
you have to forget them.

You've thought too much about her.

You again?
Missed me?

No, you will miss Geneviève Longville.

He's dead, you know?

Why would I?
I haven't seen her in a while ...

For someone saw you
yesterday at her home.

- Yes, who?
- Amélie Fortin.

The girl went there to call
when they shot Corday.

- It's a bluff.
- Look, she's in the car.

She will identify you.

You burn the old
to keep them quiet?

I haven't killed anyone.

Perhaps she was tired and wanted
confess that she killed Garance

- And that you were an accomplice.
- The old woman didn't kill anyone.

Tell me how much you've earned
for coming up with that.

Get out!

- I don't like corrupt cops at all.
- I haven't killed anyone!

I forbid you to leave
the city, okay?

- So?
- First a kiss.

He has not confessed anything
but he said everything.

That he was at the Longville's
when they fired at Chris?

How did you know?

Well, I dropped the hook and ...

He took the bait.

Come on, hurry up!
9 o'clock
01:05:26,150 --> 01:05:28,710
You aren't the only one
you have to catch customers.

It's Garance Corday!

He paid you for keeping quiet

So you're grounded.

- Why are you avoiding me?
- Guess why?

You're my best friend
and you tell me everything.

They killed Vasseur,
Geneviève paid him to be quiet.

And they burnt his house and
at the funeral he had orchids.

Pamela, Genevieve, Vasseur,
all guilty.

- Someone has avenged Garance.
- Done with the news?

- But you still don't have confided.
- What are you talking about?

The other night I was angry with David
and he told me everything.

I always loved Chris
but he preferred you.

- You knew that when you took him.
- No, I didn't try, I let him to you.

And just when I turned around,
you took him away again.

Alright,
We spent one night.

But that one night is my life,
my whole life.

And for me,
that night is the death of my whole life.

You killed Chris for me,
I'll never forgive you.

Hello Mr. Wahl,
I'll get your flowers.

I thought the doctor had
professional secrecy.

- I didn't think a friend was capable of betrayal.
- What betrayal?

You almost separated me from my wife.

Your flowers.

I tortured myself
to move away from Chris.

How sad.

You have fixed it so that
she returns to him

Why would I?

Now that Caroline knows
I'll never see Chris.

Anyway, Chris always be
the man in your life. Both of you.

I have managed to make your wife happy.

I'm sorry. I helped you.

for leaving me barren? Thank you.

But you knew,
I warned you of the danger.

You insisted, not me,
for retaining Chris.

Pardon me.

But I still love Chris. And be quiet
because if there be war between us

I know a lot of things about you.

Things? What things?

I am a criminal, is that it?

What have you seen?

- You're capable of anything.
- Like you.

- Don't worry.
- Okay

What's happening?

- Come with me.
- Come see.

HELP MOM

Is that blood?

You have to go away.

Go away?

- What about my patients?
- You'll see them.

There is a moron on the loose who is killing people
and now he's on to your family.

You must leave immediately.

Let's go.

Can you?

I'll find a substitute.

Thank you.

Thank you.

You stay inside,
Philippe is out.

it's horrible, inspector.

- I'll walk with you.
- I have a car

No, I'm willing to walk

it's a pleasure.

At noon you will be relieved.

You must have stayed at Ms. Wahl's this afternoon.

Why did you leave then?

You won't believe me.

I've seen everything by now. Go ahead

Well then,
I was vacuuming,

Georges began barking and ran out.

And I saw in the forest ...

I saw Garance!

Don't believe me, right?

It was she, with her blond hair
and white dress and ...

she disappeared.

Look, Fidélia,

Are sure you saw a girl ...

No, it was Garance!

Georges also saw her and ran
in the forest, I couldn't stop him.

And then I left.

To go get this?

Is it to protect Mélinda?

Excuse me but it's
very difficult to swallow

- The family is in danger.
- I know, they will leave in some time.

No prey escapes
that kind of hunter.

Caroline knows it too.

Goodbye inspector,
and thanks for walking me.

They paid Garance

I have given a sedative
to Melinda and mom.

They can sleep now.

- Are you inciting me to vice?
- No, to calm you down.

Besides, your house is not a prison.

GARANCE CORDAY
QUEMADAY decapitated

Ladies and gentlemen, it's 10 PM
We are closing the baths.

Good night
and see you tomorrow.

Good evening.
it's time, you aren't coming?

Yes I am.

Good evening, Guillaume.

You knew I was coming, right?

How well you deceived them.

it's not right that you like
little girls, Guillaume.

Not good at all.

Garance ...

I loved you.

- And when I found it, I understood.
- What did you find?

Now it's sure, it was Guillaume

who kidnapped and killed Garance.

I thought he was
in Italy with his wife.

That's what the old woman told everyone,
but the marriage didn't last.

Two days later he was found with
the maid's daughter, 8 years.

A scandal! He left Italy and came for
refuge at his sister's place.

And then?

Then was Garance.

He went to Spain,
We knew that ...

But now he's here!
Why did you not interrogated him?

When I understood it, I went there.
But it was too late.

Slowly! it's not a tank.

Almost, his iron bed is!

Move over, I'll do it myself.

- it's from the eighteenth century.
- It's the weight of years.

Tina, do you have everything?

My bed! But who
has sent me these brutes?

No, the furniture! Push the furniture!

Oh, my foot!

I hope you have a good insurance.

And you, an advocate : Accident
at work by abnormal goods.

Abnormal? Say,
in the eighteenth century didn't do cots.

Take this, for your kid.

Give me that.

Hurry up.

- Mélinda not come out today at 4?
- No, today is her dance class.

Lock the door
and do not open to anyone.

It won't help.

Anyway,
if someone comes to bother

I'll give one in the face.

I have punctured the wheels.
Mélinda should not be left alone.

Call Lucy. She lives next
to the school

- Do it yourself, I don't know what to say.
- Let's go, please.

Hurry up.

Mélinda, wait. Your mother called
She has a problem with her car

- Lucy will come pick you up.
- Okay.

- Keep watch.
- All right, Ms. Director..

Aver, show me your teeth ...

Mélinda ...

Garance,
I'm glad to see you.

- Your dog has had an accident.
- Georges? Has he died?

- No, Mom says she's hurt.
- I want to see him.

My mom awaits us.

- How much does it cost?
- Fifty.

Lady ...

I don't know where's my home,
I'm afraid all alone.

I'll try to help.
What is your name, you know your address?

End of the day

Next edition at midnight

We remind you of
the main news today.

Still no news of
little Mélinda Wahl,

who disappeared three hours ago

The search continues.

Those who have seen
Melinda Wahl

must go
Commissioner of Beaumont

On the other hand,
research on the heist ...

I'll look for her
with friends and with Georges.

- Be careful.
- Don't worry, I'll call.

Bye now.

Lucy is not home,
neither is Tom at the station.

I'm going to go check
I'll be right back.

- Are you Mrs. Wahl.?
- Yes.

A package for you.

Who is it from?

Who is it from?

Melinda
DARK AS THE MEMORY

Mom, I'm with Melinda.

Please meet me.
And don't inform the police.

- I saw it on TV.
- That's not all.

- What's the matter?
- She just called.

- Who?
- Garance.

She has Melinda.

She asked me to come

- I'll go with you.
- No, she asked me to come alone

- And not to inform the police.
- I'm not the police.

Come on.

It's you who went to the party at the school?

Yes, it was I who went to the party at school.

I asked candy from that lady.

Hey, don't you have some candy?

Not right now, but tomorrow
I'll buy a package.

This is my home.

No need to ring
Mom always leaves the door open.

Sometimes you can't open further.

Well I'm going to open
and you go in first. Come.

Mom, it's the police.

You know, today I was left all alone.

I brought the girl.

Who left you?

She has to eat
and I have to drink.

Yes of course.

- Do you see that person often?
- I was paid everytime I played Garance.

Oh yeah...

- And you know where she lives?
- Come.

Is it near?

it's this way.

Come with me.

Commissioner Jerome, please?

Thank you.

I've been looking for you.
They told me you were here.

Lucy has disappeared with Melinda,
She had to pick her up.

Lucy has nothing to do with this,
someone else has kidnapped your daughter.

I suppose you know who.

The name that's on the door.

It can't be!

Don't go on that flat
there are incriminating objects.

Mom, help!

Mom!

- Mélinda!
- Help, Mom!

Don't move or I'll shoot,
as I have shot Lucy.

Help!

- Don't be afraid, I'm coming.
- Don't come!

As no one
one came then for Garance.

Mom I'm afraid,
I'm going to fall.

Don't nonsense, Tina.

I'm not Tina.

I am Garance.

- You can't be Garance.
- Tina Morgan is dead.

She was a little brunette girl
with black eyes.

He had abducted her before me.

But when he saw me,
it was me that he wanted.

He killed Tina.

He beheaded her,

and he burned her body.

He left my medal to her.

Then he took me far away,
to Spain.

For eight years

He made me do what he wanted.

One night, I fled.

But I didn't know where I came from.

Who I was

I looked for you ...

for years.

I used to come
to see your house with my daughter.

But she died.

So I had
Lucy hire me,

and I settled accounts.

All of them have paid for it.

- What do we do?
- Take her away.

- They don't know that it's Garance.
- Throw the gun into the water.

- What happened?
- I saw the clown in the basement,

I suspected Tina
and then Greg called me.

Where is Tina?

Where?

Her car is there.

- I just saw her.
- In the forest.

We must find her

But Tina was ...

Tina was ...

Tina Morgan.

I am very glad
that you two are reconciled.

He's always picking up these chicks.
