PREVIOUSLY ON FALCO
Be careful.
- (Always)
Then we'll take them together.
- That's dangerous, Alex.
Police!
GUNFIRE
Are you okay, sir?
How long have I been here?
- Twenty-two years.
It's Pauline!
- Is that our daughter?
ALEX: I'm a cop. Understand?
I want to find my life again.
J-P: Two conditions.
You don't work alone.
Chevalier.
- Give me anyone else, but not him.
- And you are?
- Sonia Vasseur, your psychologist.
Nice guy.
ROMAIN: That's not right.
Working with the man who
lives with your wife-
Stop fucking my wife,
maybe I won't hit you in the mouth.
I'll do anything to get you back.
CAROLE: I started over, Alex.
So should you.
No. Please.
GRAY AREAS
GRAY AREAS
Yes, central, I read you.
They've arrived.
ROMAIN: Too late!
At least you're well-dressed.
Do you like it?
What is that?
Going to the Firemen's Ball, or what?
It's for Pauline, my daughter.
I'm picking her up at the airport
day after tomorrow. I'm trying to decide.
I need your opinion:
with or without a tie?
Get rid of it, it hurts my eyes.
Does that mean no tie?
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hYes, the fairest of them all!
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hYes, the fairest of them all!

Do you know that Pauline
is coming in two days?
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hYes. \h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hCHERON: Yes,
it's a nine-hour flight.
Delhi-to-Paris is long.
Uncomfortable seats and no mobile,
not to mention the jet lag.
I can pick her up, if you want.
Then you'd see each other in the
evening. She'll have time to rest.
And you're not really used to
driving new cars.
Do they still have a steering
wheel and three pedals?
No, unless it's an automatic, then...
Yes, they still do.
Then I'll find my way.
Thanks, Choron.
'Cheron.' It's 'Cheron.'
- Noted, Choron.
EVA: Tourists found her in the harbor
this morning. Dorothee Dalmasso, 54.
CHERON: Stabbed twice
with a serrated knife.
The second hit the liver.
Then she was thrown into the water.
ROMAIN: Was the knife found?
- No, it's not in the area.
ROMAIN: The fire brigade?
CHERON: Nothing yet.
ROMAIN: Time of death?
CHERON: An autopsy will confirm,
but 8 hours in the water at most,
so between midnight and 4 am.
She was attacked on the footbridge,
there was blood and her purse.
She fled into an equipment room.
ROMAIN: Okay, let's go there.
SIREN
Last year, kids committed
24 assaults in the neighborhood.
The victim was in the wrong place
at the wrong time.
Coincidence.
Coincidence with a pretty first name.
LEA
Dorothée Dalmasso, psychiatrist.
Divorced ten years ago,
the ex lives in the US.
One daughter, Camille.
She's on her way.
What do we know about this 'Lea'?
Her connection to Dalmasso?
Eva's searching her apartment.
Nothing yet.
We're waiting for
a warrant for her practice.
It must be a patient.
There are many suspects
in such a profession.
- The people who consult
her aren't potential killers, OK?
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hLieutenant?
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hLieutenant?\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hYes?
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hVictim's daughter is\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hYes?
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hwaiting for you at the IML.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hVictim's daughter is
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hwaiting for you at the IML.
We're leaving.
Hey Falco...
- Yes?
don't you talk twice a week to
one of the best psychologists in Paris?
Jealous, Chevalier?
Don't you swipe her from me.
But you probably already have one.
- What makes you say that?
CRYING QUIETLY
...
SOBBING
Here.
- Thank you.
That will do you good.
ROMAIN: When did you
last see your mother?
- Last night.
We were out for dinner.
She had been at a seminar in Lille.
Until what time?
- Midnight, about.
She asked me to drop her off
at the Arsenal boat basin.
She had to pick up something
from a friend on a houseboat.
Did she have a patient
who held a grudge?
No idea. She took professional
secrecy very seriously.
But last night,
she was distracted, nervous.
Not herself.
- Does the name 'Lea'
mean anything to you?
No, not at all.
If only I had gone with her!
FALCO: You couldn't have done anything.
Then you would have been in danger too.
Your mother wouldn't have wanted that.
The 'friend on a houseboat' is
wrong. She didn't know anyone there.
She didn't want to worry her daughter.
She had an appointment
there, that's for sure.
Now to figure out with whom.
We'll have the warrant for
her office tomorrow morning.
- Alex, can I talk to you for a second?
FALCO: Of course. See you soon.
J-P: How are you?
Great. Why?
- No reason.
It's been a few days
since you came back.
It's hard getting used to it, right?
Listen, don't you start.
I'll leave if the shrink doesn't pass me.
We're worried about you is all, Alex.
You may have side effects:
low morale, fits of rage, violence.
I just want to know how you are,
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\has my friend.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hAlso as a boss?
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hAlso as a boss?\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hHa.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hI assure you,
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hI'm fine, okay?
You know you can
always talk to me.
- I'll be fine, Jean-Paul.
- Okay. Great. Perfect.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hAnd your daughter?
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hYou have something planned,
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hsomething nice?
I told you: I'll be fine.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hThanks, buddy.

How old are you, Chevalier?
- 32, in a month.
Why, want to get me a present?
Do you know a restaurant
I can go to with Pauline?
A bit trendy, popular
with young people.
Trendy?
Trendy... I don't know...
- I'll ask Eva.
That'd be better.
ROMAIN: Uh...
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hThanks, doctor. Bye.

can we speak to you?
You've been working with
Dr. Dalmasso for...?
- Three years. I'm a GP, I was
looking for someone to share my practice.
Have you noticed
anything unusual lately?
No. I haven't seen her since
she left for Lille on Friday.
She doesn't work
Mondays and Tuesdays.
Did she have any
problems with patients?
People who were aggressive,
or obsessive, for example?
No, I don't think so.
- 'Lea.' Does that mean anything?
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h'Lea'? Yes.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h'Lea'? Yes.\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hYeah?
That's a patient of Dorothée's:
Lea Joubert.
Do you have her address,
or a phone number?
That's not possible.
Why not?
Lea is dead. She committed
suicide two weeks ago.
What do we have on Léa Joubert?
EVA: 27, lived in the US,
newly married,
3 months ago in France.
Been a patient of
Dalmasso for 6 weeks.
ROMAIN: 15 days ago her husband
found a goodbye note in the living room.
Two days later she was
fished out at Mesnil-le-Roi.
- According to Dalmasso, her
patient had suicidal tendencies.
'Patient presents symptoms of depression,
withdrawing into oneself, and
inability to communicate with others.
Suicide is a serious possibility.'
Newlyweds;
the husband must be in bad shape.
So much so that he takes
revenge on her psychiatrist?
No idea. I wouldn't have been
very satisfied with the result.
Eva, do you have a minute?
Do you know a nice restaurant
for me and my daughter?
If I can't find one I'm screwed.
- Yeah, I know one.
-Thanks!
The investigation into
Léa's death is closed.
We have some more questions for you.
Your wife's psychiatrist
has been murdered.
Before dying she was able to write the
name 'Lea' with her blood.
What did you think of the treatment
your wife received from the psychiatrist?
Did you hold her responsible
for her suicide? No?
Do you think I killed Léa's
psychiatrist? Out of revenge?
Do you know what
depression is, lieutenant?
We were newlyweds, thankfully.
But inside she was tormented.
She disappeared behind her illness.
In the US I sent
her to psychiatrists.
I encouraged her to
see her friends, to go out.
Back in France I sent her to
Dr Dalmasso. But it was useless.
I didn't kill Dr Dalmasso.
No one could do anything for Léa.
Not her psychiatrist, not me.
I understand.
We'll leave you, Mr. Joubert.
You've talked to the police enough lately.
Chevalier?
TEXT NOTIFICATION
That was Eva. Thibault Joubert was
with a friend all evening.
We look wider at other patients,
colleagues, her private life.
- I think the opposite;
we should concentrate on Léa.
We still have so
much to dig through!
That's a waste of time, everything leads
back to the woman.
- You do whatever you want anyway,
it's useless for me to worry.
Excuse me, I'm going for a walk,
can I have Dalmasso's file on Léa?
Once again, please, check-in by phone.
- Gotta go-- I promise, I'll try!
Going okay?
- Fine.
Go ahead.
How's the boss?
- Fine.
A lager, please.
Hello.
- Hello.
There.
- Thank you.
DALMASSO: Patient Lea Joubert.
The patient remains silent,
only shaking her head.
Seventh session.
Results of dream analysis.
The white horse appears again.
As a means of fleeing
from anxiety attacks.
When I say 'white horse', what do you say?
I don't know... Henry IV.
Not bad. What else?
- Crossword puzzle?
- Not really.
- My cousin's bar is
called The White Rabbit,
but 'white horse,'
that means nothing to me.
- A bar.
REFUGE
Do you have a phone book?
- Excuse me?
Phone book. A big book with
names, phone numbers, addresses.
- Hold on, I may have one somewhere.
Here. But it's a bit outdated.
Everything is relative!
Hotels...
WHITE HORSE
Not a horse.
Right. Nothing in the patient records.
Nothing with her family either.
On the other hand,
maybe there is on her colleague Benzia.
Every Monday and Wednesday for a
month and a half, €85 on his credit card...
for a hotel room in the République area.
Daytime rendezvous in a hotel,
smells like a secret affair.
If it was Dalmasso,
we have a suspect. Right?

Allow me. Chevalier?
Falco? What are you doing there?
- I'll explain,
no need to bother this gentleman.
I know who Benzia
was playing doctor with.
Mm-hmm: Lea Joubert.
- Good,
OK, I expect you back here.
- Thank you, sir!
ROMAIN: We checked, Mr. Benzia:
you were fired
from your previous practice.
Why?
Because you had
a relationship with a patient.
She reported it to
the Medical Association.
- I paid for that,
I've started all over again.
- Not really.
This time it was not a patient
of yours, but of your colleague.
Lea Joubert.
That was different, that has
nothing to do with it.
FALCO: Really?
- I loved her. I loved Lea.
When I first saw her in
Dr Dalmasso's waiting room,
she was reading King Lear.
We looked at each other and
immediately something between us.
Soon, we were lovers.
- Despite her depression?
I knew she was fragile,
but we didn't talk about that.
Then one day...
one day the police came.
Lea's body had been found.
Suicide.
You seduced her patient; what would
Dr Dalmasso have said about that?
I don't know.
- Not passively.
What happened? She called you
to account, and it got out of hand?
No way! Dorothée didn't know there
was something between Léa and me.
I wanted to tell her...
- But?
She was so excited about the seminar.
I thought it could wait a week.
But...
- But when she came back,
she was killed.
And that's why you're here.
Where were you from Monday night/Tuesday
morning between midnight and 4 am?
At a bar. Shitfaced.
Since Léa's death...
...I'm trying to survive. Yeah?
Ask the bartender, he can
confirm. He knows me by now.
We'll certainly do that.
We're holding him
until his alibi is checked.
- She has an affair, and a
month later she commits suicide?
Like we're not talking
about the same person.
- Perhaps the swan song:
one more great experience?
I don't find it convincing.
We're looking for the
bartender for Benza's alibi.
Dalmasso's daughter said her mother
was preoccupied after her Lille trip.
But according to Benzia,
on Friday evening she was great.
- And?
Something must have happened.
What do we know about that "weekend"?
Saturday was the seminar, Sunday
evening she took the 10 pm train.
Can you be a little more precise?
- Sunday bought shoes
and a jacket downtown,
and a book opposite
the station at 6:42 pm.
Wait. At 6:42 pm she
buys a book at the station.
Then the 10 pm train and dinner
with her daughter? That's not right.
ROMAIN: Yeah. She first had
a ticket for the 7:15 pm train.
But at 9:52 pm she bought
a new ticket for 10 pm.
Something happened at the station.
- Eva, call the railway.
Ask for CCTV of the area.
Here, everyone says this is a great place.
'The Coco Bar'?
- Yes!
LAUGHS
Are those condoms?
- Yes.
- Okay.
- Falco? Your ex-wife called a few times.
There's a message at the reception.
- Thanks.
SNEEZES
- Bless you.
It stopped.
You're welcome to come in.
Is my wife home?
Going on a trip? Cool.
Listen, I know it's important to you.
I thought you got the messages.
You didn't respond.
I didn't want to keep her waiting.
What kind of messages?
Pauline's plane got in early.
I picked her up at the airport.
PAULINE: Phil, I have something for you...
CAROLE: Pauline!
Hold it. I'll go after her.
You've done enough for today.

KNOCKS
Chevalier?
Benzia's alibi is confirmed,
he'll be able to go home.
Images received from Lille station.
What happened just before
the departure of her first train?
Can you fast forward to 6:45 pm?
Please, Chevalier.
- Yes.
- Please, Chevalier.
A woman alone in a gray suit.
There she is.
"Stop"!
Why does she stop?
She seems to be scared of someone.
Can this be enlarged?
- Yes,
with some computer magic we
can get a little more accurate picture.
- There!
ROMAIN: She's scared of her.
Would you sign here please?
- Of course.
What is she doing here?
ROMAINE: Do you know her?
That's Lea. Lea Joubert.
Benzia is wrong, of course
it's not the same woman.
In addition, Léa had already
been dead for 2 weeks.
- They were lovers for two months.
I've looked at CCTV of
the elevator at the practice.
Perhaps the woman at the
station was another patient.
I found her. 3:55 pm,
3 times a week.
Who had an appointment at 4 pm?
- Lea Joubert.
This woman came instead of Léa?
Yeah, the real Léa never set foot in there.
That explains Dalmasso's reaction in Lille.
She really thought she'd seen a ghost.
- Look up this woman's face
in the database.
What is this now?
Arrrgh.
You'll break it!
Those things are fragile.
What do you want to do?
- Just call.
Is that no longer possible
with a telephone these days?
- Who do you want to call?
- My wife.
- Carole?
- Uh, yes. My wife.
Thanks.
Hello? Yeah, it's me.
Listen,about last night...
I don't know how to say it.
Can I come over? Are you alone?
Okay, I'm coming.
KNOCKING
Am I interrupting?
No. I was correcting mock
exams. Come in, there's coffee.
- Thanks.
I need to speak to Pauline, to apologize.
Is she home?
She's at a friend's.
She'll be there tonight.
Listen... I'm terribly sorry
for what happened.
I behaved like a bastard, OK?
She was surprised by it all.
She had to process it.
Philippe didn't react well either.
You both have to do your best.
At least for her.
I don't know what came over me.
When he said he
picked her up at the airport...
Sometimes I feel like everything
is slipping out of my hands, Carole.
Yet I still remember everything.
Her birth, her favorite stuffed
animal, the way she smelled.
How proud I was of her.
But she... She doesn't know me.
She has your eyes. Your hands.
When she was eight, she asked for a picture
of you on your motorcycle before Christmas.
At 12, she wanted to
protect the weak, just like you.
At 18 she decided
to become a lawyer.
Every time I see her, I see you.
Philippe is important to her.
But she's your daughter.
And no one can take that away from you.
Not even 20 years in a coma.
Thank you.
Well, do we know who that woman is yet?
- No. We have nothing
to identify her with.
Stealing an identity
to see a psychiatrist?
For money, to escape, okay.
But to go to therapy?
- You can take my place
with Sonia Vasseur.
Then I don't have
to tell my life story.
Could that be what happened?
She had been to dozens
of psychiatrists in the US.
She can't take it
anymore, it doesn't work.
He proposes Dalmasso.
She says yes, but sends
someone else in her place.
Bizarre. But it does explain
why there were two women.
And that Dalmasso's
treatment of the fake Léa failed.
- Léa knew the woman who
took her place with Dalmasso.
Yeah. Maybe her husband does too.
- Right, let's go!
No, never seen her.
First I killed that shrink, and now
my wife has never been there?
- I think she asked someone to
take her place. So as not to hurt you.
Could Léa have lied to me?
Did she make me believe
she was in therapy?
I don't know.
I can't believe it.
Did she kill the psychiatrist?
- It's certain she's involved.
And we're going to track her down.
If Léa had gone to therapy,
would she have killed herself ?
- Anyway, it would have helped.
So you believe in it?
- In what?
- In therapy.
It's not magic, it's not about
whether you believe in it.

Yes, Eva?
Cheron has news.
He's expecting us.
Well now, Cheron, were you in a fight?
CHERON: I have the autopsy
file on Léa Joubert...
Well now, I'm-
Have you been fighting?
CHERON: The autopsy on Lea Joubert
confirms the river brigade's
findings: drowning.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hAnd nothing else?

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hYes, traces of seawater
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hin her lungs.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h- But she was in the Seine.
More precisely: fake seawater,
as with modern swimming pools.
Lea Joubert wasn't a suicide.
She was murdered.
- Pool? That reminds me of someone.
COP: Nobody in the basement.
Thibault Joubert has a motive:
€800,000 in life insurance on his wife.
Restaurants, cars, travel. Joubert
loved the good life, look at this.
So he made up everything
and faked how she died.
- He decided to kill his wife
for the life insurance,
and makes it look like suicide.
- He puts it around that she's depressed,
and hires someone to act out
suicidal tendencies for the shrink.
Then Dalmasso sees
the double at the station.
- He gets her out of the way.
And the double too.
We were stupid enough to
show him her picture!
We have to find
her before he does.
That image from Lille is
too vague to identify her.
And the phone taps on Joubert?
EVA: Nothing.
And he could have paid
the replacement in cash.
What's the point of all this stuff,
we can't even identify someone!
- It's confirmed: the water in Joubert's
pool matches that in Léa's lungs!
Voila. We're sure he did it.
He's going to kill her in cold blood,
and we're stuck here like idiots!
SHIT!

SONIA: I took the liberty of
reminding you of our appointment.
Well, I'm sorry but I don't have time.
- Ah. No buts. Right now.
You know the deal:
my sessions or your badge.
45 minutes to put name to this face.
Your daughter is back home?
- You heard fast.
Right. No more playing around.
I won't ask you about the
pathologist,
I wouldn't believe you.
He was greenish around his left eye.
Like you had clubbed a fish.
- I thought that's a side
effect of my coma.
A side effect, yes.
But not from a coma.
From something much more banal.
Jealousy, lieutenant.
Philippe symbolizes
everything you have lost:
fatherhood, family.
It's normal to be angry at others.
But you can't relieve it however you want.
- It does offer some relief, sure.
And Pauline?
What does she think when she sees
you being so violent with her stepfather?
Falco... you know, you can
be a father figure to her.
Different from other fathers, perhaps.
But still a father.
But you must be prepared to accept my help.
SCOFFS
Yes, I'm a psychologist. It's my job.
As for acting like everything's fine:
that might play at work.
But not here,
you're not fooling me.
What did you say?
"You're not fooling me." Thank you!
I might have something.
Either, that woman could pass herself off
as someone else--
even with a psychiatrist, a bad one,
but this one had a good reputation--
Or that woman could
act well-- a professional actress!
ROMAIN: Keep going...
- Do you remember what Benzia said?
- She was reading in the waiting room.
Yes, she was reading King Lear.
Now crank-up that machine
and put in King Lear, Lille,
and all the info about that woman!
A production of King Lear was
playing last week in Lille.
- Her name is Clemence Rodier.
- "Yes"!
- And in 2 hours there's a show in Sèvres.
You stay, Eva. Go through
Clemence Rodier's bank accounts.
EVA: Yeah, Clemence is 28, an actress.
€4000 was deposited in her account
after each session with the psychiatrist.
For playing Léa Joubert.
Do you know her?
- That's Cordelia! Well, Clemence.
- Where is she?
- Inside.
The rest of the troupe haven't arrived yet,
I already told your colleague that.
- Colleague?
- Tall, thin guy,
blue eyes. He went in 10 minutes ago.
JOUBERT: (You're not getting away;
it's over for you.)
The cops will find you dead.
You killed the psychiatrist,
felt remorse, and wanted to die.
Hands up, Joubert!
Slowly.
I'll come back.
Halt! Halt!
I can't believe this shit!
Don't move!
It's the cigarettes, Falco. The cigarettes.
How did he contact you?
He came to see me after a performance.
He was looking for an actress
for a special role.
- That's putting it mildly.
I had to pretend to be
Léa Joubert with Dr Dalmasso.
Show suicidal tendencies,
say as little as possible.
Yeah, an easy way to make money, right?
Fooling the shrink was nothing.
Every week I got money.
I didn't ask any questions.
And Benzia, was he
part of the plot against the shrink?
No.
That wasn't fair, it just happened.
Hello.
- Hello.
I lost my head, there was
something strong between us.
After six weeks I had to disappear.
Leaving Robinson was awful.
But there was no choice,
it was the deal to disappear.
And it all turned to shit when you ran
into Dalmasso in Lille.
She told me that Léa
Joubert, the real one, was dead.
I didn't really understand.
- You were involved in something
that got completely out of hand.
That's true, but I...
didn't know what he had planned.
- The psychiatrist tried to understand.
Joubert must've thought we'd
never make the connection
between the death of
his wife and Dalmasso's.
But she could still write
Léa's name before she died.
What will happen to me?
Miss, you're being charged
with identity theft.
But thanks to you, we have Joubert.
Whether he confesses or not.
The judge will take that into account.
Come on, Chevalier.
I'll treat you to breakfast.
- With pleasure.
Do you want to tell me?
- What?
Why you went to a psychologist.
I can't say.
- You don't have to be ashamed. I'm proof.
I was required to. Just like you.
Why?
By leadership.
Because I made an error.
What kind of error?
I killed someone.
- Shit.
Who, a suspect?
Someone on the team.
Who was it?
What happened?
He irritated me. Terrible taste
in music, disgusting humor.
I couldn't take it anymore.
Well done! Classy!
Hey boss, this one's on me!
I'll try my best.
- You better!

We were out for dinner.
She had been at a seminar in Lille.
Until what time?
- Midnight, about.
She asked me to drop her off
at the Arsenal boat basin.
She had to pick up something
from a friend on a houseboat.
Did she have a patient
who held a grudge?
No idea. She took professional
secrecy very seriously.
But last night,
she was distracted, nervous.
Not herself.
- Does the name 'Lea'
mean anything to you?
No, not at all.
If only I had gone with her!
FALCO: You couldn't have done anything.
Then you would have been in danger too.
Your mother wouldn't have wanted that.
The 'friend on a houseboat' is
wrong. She didn't know anyone there.
She didn't want to worry her daughter.
She had an appointment
there, that's for sure.
Now to figure out with whom.
We'll have the warrant for
her office tomorrow morning.
- Alex, can I talk to you for a second?
FALCO: Of course. See you soon.

Great. Why?
- No reason.

since you came back.
It's hard getting used to it, right?
Listen, don't you start.

can we speak to you?
You've been working with
Dr. Dalmasso for...?
- Three years. I'm a GP, I was
looking for someone to share my practice.
Have you noticed
anything unusual lately?
No. I haven't seen her since
she left for Lille on Friday.
She doesn't work
Mondays and Tuesdays.
Did she have any
problems with patients?
People who were aggressive,
or obsessive, for example?
No, I don't think so.
- 'Lea.' Does that mean anything?
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h'Lea'? Yes.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h'Lea'? Yes.\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hYeah?
That's a patient of Dorothée's:
Lea Joubert.
Do you have her address,
or a phone number?
That's not possible.
Why not?
Lea is dead. She committed
suicide two weeks ago.
What do we have on Léa Joubert?
EVA: 27, lived in the US,
newly married,
3 months ago in France.
Been a patient of
Dalmasso for 6 weeks.
ROMAIN: 15 days ago her husband
found a goodbye note in the living room.
Two days later she was
fished out at Mesnil-le-Roi.
- According to Dalmasso, her
patient had suicidal tendencies.
'Patient presents symptoms of depression,
withdrawing into oneself, and
inability to communicate with others.
Suicide is a serious possibility.'
Newlyweds;
the husband must be in bad shape.
So much so that he takes
revenge on her psychiatrist?
No idea. I wouldn't have been
very satisfied with the result.
Eva, do you have a minute?
Do you know a nice restaurant
for me and my daughter?
If I can't find one I'm screwed.
- Yeah, I know one.
-Thanks!
The investigation into
Léa's death is closed.
We have some more questions for you.
Your wife's psychiatrist
has been murdered.
Before dying she was able to write the
name 'Lea' with her blood.
What did you think of the treatment
your wife received from the psychiatrist?
Did you hold her responsible
for her suicide? No?
Do you think I killed Léa's
psychiatrist? Out of revenge?
Do you know what
depression is, lieutenant?
We were newlyweds, thankfully.
But inside she was tormented.
She disappeared behind her illness.
In the US I sent
her to psychiatrists.
I encouraged her to
see her friends, to go out.
Back in France I sent her to
Dr Dalmasso. But it was useless.
I didn't kill Dr Dalmasso.
No one could do anything for Léa.
Not her psychiatrist, not me.
I understand.
We'll leave you, Mr. Joubert.
You've talked to the police enough lately.
Chevalier?
TEXT NOTIFICATION
That was Eva. Thibault Joubert was
with a friend all evening.
We look wider at other patients,
colleagues, her private life.
- I think the opposite;
we should concentrate on Léa.
We still have so
much to dig through!
That's a waste of time, everything leads
back to the woman.
- You do whatever you want anyway,
it's useless for me to worry.
Excuse me, I'm going for a walk,
can I have Dalmasso's file on Léa?
Once again, please, check-in by phone.
- Gotta go-- I promise, I'll try!
Going okay?
- Fine.
Go ahead.
How's the boss?
- Fine.
A lager, please.
Hello.
- Hello.
There.
- Thank you.
DALMASSO: Patient Lea Joubert.
The patient remains silent,
only shaking her head.
Seventh session.
Results of dream analysis.
The white horse appears again.
As a means of fleeing
from anxiety attacks.
When I say 'white horse', what do you say?
I don't know... Henry IV.
Not bad. What else?
- Crossword puzzle?
- Not really.
- My cousin's bar is
called The White Rabbit,
but 'white horse,'
that means nothing to me.
- A bar.
REFUGE
Do you have a phone book?
- Excuse me?
Phone book. A big book with
names, phone numbers, addresses.
- Hold on, I may have one somewhere.
Here. But it's a bit outdated.
Everything is relative!
Hotels...
WHITE HORSE
Not a horse.
Right. Nothing in the patient records.
Nothing with her family either.
On the other hand,
maybe there is on her colleague Benzia.
Every Monday and Wednesday for a
month and a half, €85 on his credit card...
for a hotel room in the République area.
Daytime rendezvous in a hotel,
smells like a secret affair.
If it was Dalmasso,
we have a suspect. Right?

Allow me. Chevalier?
Falco? What are you doing there?
- I'll explain,
no need to bother this gentleman.
I know who Benzia
was playing doctor with.
Mm-hmm: Lea Joubert.
- Good,
OK, I expect you back here.
- Thank you, sir!
ROMAIN: We checked, Mr. Benzia:
you were fired
from your previous practice.
Why?
Because you had
a relationship with a patient.
She reported it to
the Medical Association.
- I paid for that,
I've started all over again.
- Not really.
This time it was not a patient
of yours, but of your colleague.
Lea Joubert.
That was different, that has
nothing to do with it.
FALCO: Really?
- I loved her. I loved Lea.
When I first saw her in
Dr Dalmasso's waiting room,
she was reading King Lear.
We looked at each other and
immediately something between us.
Soon, we were lovers.
- Despite her depression?
I knew she was fragile,
but we didn't talk about that.
Then one day...
one day the police came.
Lea's body had been found.
Suicide.
You seduced her patient; what would
Dr Dalmasso have said about that?
I don't know.
- Not passively.
What happened? She called you
to account, and it got out of hand?
No way! Dorothée didn't know there
was something between Léa and me.
I wanted to tell her...
- But?
She was so excited about the seminar.
I thought it could wait a week.
But...
- But when she came back,
she was killed.
And that's why you're here.
Where were you from Monday night/Tuesday
morning between midnight and 4 am?
At a bar. Shitfaced.
Since Léa's death...
...I'm trying to survive. Yeah?
Ask the bartender, he can
confirm. He knows me by now.
We'll certainly do that.
We're holding him
until his alibi is checked.
- She has an affair, and a
month later she commits suicide?
Like we're not talking
about the same person.
- Perhaps the swan song:
one more great experience?
I don't find it convincing.
We're looking for the
bartender for Benza's alibi.
Dalmasso's daughter said her mother
was preoccupied after her Lille trip.
But according to Benzia,
on Friday evening she was great.
- And?
Something must have happened.
What do we know about that "weekend"?
Saturday was the seminar, Sunday
evening she took the 10 pm train.
Can you be a little more precise?
- Sunday bought shoes
and a jacket downtown,
and a book opposite
the station at 6:42 pm.
Wait. At 6:42 pm she
buys a book at the station.
Then the 10 pm train and dinner
with her daughter? That's not right.
ROMAIN: Yeah. She first had
a ticket for the 7:15 pm train.
But at 9:52 pm she bought
a new ticket for 10 pm.
Something happened at the station.
- Eva, call the railway.
Ask for CCTV of the area.
Here, everyone says this is a great place.
'The Coco Bar'?
- Yes!
LAUGHS
Are those condoms?
- Yes.
- Okay.
- Falco? Your ex-wife called a few times.
There's a message at the reception.
- Thanks.
SNEEZES
- Bless you.
It stopped.
You're welcome to come in.
Is my wife home?
Going on a trip? Cool.
Listen, I know it's important to you.
I thought you got the messages.
You didn't respond.
I didn't want to keep her waiting.
What kind of messages?
Pauline's plane got in early.
I picked her up at the airport.
PAULINE: Phil, I have something for you...
CAROLE: Pauline!
Hold it. I'll go after her.
You've done enough for today.

Chevalier?
Benzia's alibi is confirmed,
he'll be able to go home.
Images received from Lille station.
What happened just before
the departure of her first train?
Can you fast forward to 6:45 pm?
Please, Chevalier.
- Yes.
- Please, Chevalier.
A woman alone in a gray suit.
There she is.
"Stop"!
Why does she stop?
She seems to be scared of someone.
Can this be enlarged?
- Yes,
with some computer magic we
can get a little more accurate picture.
- There!
ROMAIN: She's scared of her.
Would you sign here please?
- Of course.
What is she doing here?
ROMAINE: Do you know her?
That's Lea. Lea Joubert.
Benzia is wrong, of course
it's not the same woman.
In addition, Léa had already
been dead for 2 weeks.
- They were lovers for two months.
I've looked at CCTV of
the elevator at the practice.
Perhaps the woman at the
station was another patient.
I found her. 3:55 pm,
3 times a week.
Who had an appointment at 4 pm?
- Lea Joubert.
This woman came instead of Léa?
Yeah, the real Léa never set foot in there.
That explains Dalmasso's reaction in Lille.
She really thought she'd seen a ghost.
- Look up this woman's face
in the database.
What is this now?
Arrrgh.
You'll break it!
Those things are fragile.
What do you want to do?
- Just call.
Is that no longer possible
with a telephone these days?
- Who do you want to call?
- My wife.
- Carole?
- Uh, yes. My wife.
Thanks.
Hello? Yeah, it's me.
Listen,about last night...
I don't know how to say it.
Can I come over? Are you alone?
Okay, I'm coming.
KNOCKING
Am I interrupting?
No. I was correcting mock
exams. Come in, there's coffee.
- Thanks.
I need to speak to Pauline, to apologize.
Is she home?
She's at a friend's.
She'll be there tonight.
Listen... I'm terribly sorry
for what happened.
I behaved like a bastard, OK?
She was surprised by it all.
She had to process it.
Philippe didn't react well either.
You both have to do your best.
At least for her.
I don't know what came over me.
When he said he
picked her up at the airport...
Sometimes I feel like everything
is slipping out of my hands, Carole.
Yet I still remember everything.
Her birth, her favorite stuffed
animal, the way she smelled.
How proud I was of her.
But she... She doesn't know me.
She has your eyes. Your hands.
When she was eight, she asked for a picture
of you on your motorcycle before Christmas.
At 12, she wanted to
protect the weak, just like you.
At 18 she decided
to become a lawyer.
Every time I see her, I see you.
Philippe is important to her.
But she's your daughter.
And no one can take that away from you.
Not even 20 years in a coma.
Thank you.
Well, do we know who that woman is yet?
- No. We have nothing
to identify her with.
Stealing an identity
to see a psychiatrist?
For money, to escape, okay.
But to go to therapy?
- You can take my place
with Sonia Vasseur.
Then I don't have
to tell my life story.
Could that be what happened?
She had been to dozens
of psychiatrists in the US.
She can't take it
anymore, it doesn't work.
He proposes Dalmasso.
She says yes, but sends
someone else in her place.
Bizarre. But it does explain
why there were two women.
And that Dalmasso's
treatment of the fake Léa failed.
- Léa knew the woman who
took her place with Dalmasso.
Yeah. Maybe her husband does too.
- Right, let's go!
No, never seen her.
First I killed that shrink, and now
my wife has never been there?
- I think she asked someone to
take her place. So as not to hurt you.
Could Léa have lied to me?
Did she make me believe
she was in therapy?
I don't know.
I can't believe it.
Did she kill the psychiatrist?
- It's certain she's involved.
And we're going to track her down.
If Léa had gone to therapy,
would she have killed herself ?
- Anyway, it would have helped.
So you believe in it?
- In what?
- In therapy.
It's not magic, it's not about
whether you believe in it.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hin her lungs.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h- But she was in the Seine.
More precisely: fake seawater,
as with modern swimming pools.
Lea Joubert wasn't a suicide.
She was murdered.
- Pool? That reminds me of someone.
COP: Nobody in the basement.
Thibault Joubert has a motive:
€800,000 in life insurance on his wife.
Restaurants, cars, travel. Joubert
loved the good life, look at this.
So he made up everything
and faked how she died.
- He decided to kill his wife
for the life insurance,
and makes it look like suicide.
- He puts it around that she's depressed,
and hires someone to act out
suicidal tendencies for the shrink.
Then Dalmasso sees
the double at the station.
- He gets her out of the way.
And the double too.
We were stupid enough to
show him her picture!
We have to find
her before he does.
That image from Lille is
too vague to identify her.
And the phone taps on Joubert?
EVA: Nothing.
And he could have paid
the replacement in cash.
What's the point of all this stuff,
we can't even identify someone!
- It's confirmed: the water in Joubert's
pool matches that in Léa's lungs!
Voila. We're sure he did it.
He's going to kill her in cold blood,
and we're stuck here like idiots!

45 minutes to put name to this face.
Your daughter is back home?
- You heard fast.
Right. No more playing around.
I won't ask you about the
pathologist,
I wouldn't believe you.
He was greenish around his left eye.
Like you had clubbed a fish.
- I thought that's a side
effect of my coma.
A side effect, yes.
But not from a coma.
From something much more banal.
Jealousy, lieutenant.
Philippe symbolizes
everything you have lost:
fatherhood, family.
It's normal to be angry at others.
But you can't relieve it however you want.
- It does offer some relief, sure.
And Pauline?
What does she think when she sees
you being so violent with her stepfather?
Falco... you know, you can
be a father figure to her.
Different from other fathers, perhaps.
But still a father.
But you must be prepared to accept my help.
SCOFFS
Yes, I'm a psychologist. It's my job.
As for acting like everything's fine:
that might play at work.
But not here,
you're not fooling me.
What did you say?
"You're not fooling me." Thank you!
I might have something.
Either, that woman could pass herself off
as someone else--
even with a psychiatrist, a bad one,
but this one had a good reputation--
Or that woman could
act well-- a professional actress!
ROMAIN: Keep going...
- Do you remember what Benzia said?
- She was reading in the waiting room.
Yes, she was reading King Lear.
Now crank-up that machine
and put in King Lear, Lille,
and all the info about that woman!
A production of King Lear was
playing last week in Lille.
- Her name is Clemence Rodier.
- "Yes"!
- And in 2 hours there's a show in Sèvres.
You stay, Eva. Go through
Clemence Rodier's bank accounts.
EVA: Yeah, Clemence is 28, an actress.
€4000 was deposited in her account
after each session with the psychiatrist.
For playing Léa Joubert.
Do you know her?
- That's Cordelia! Well, Clemence.
- Where is she?
- Inside.
The rest of the troupe haven't arrived yet,
I already told your colleague that.
- Colleague?
- Tall, thin guy,
blue eyes. He went in 10 minutes ago.
JOUBERT: (You're not getting away;
it's over for you.)
The cops will find you dead.
You killed the psychiatrist,
felt remorse, and wanted to die.
Hands up, Joubert!
Slowly.
I'll come back.
Halt! Halt!
I can't believe this shit!
Don't move!
It's the cigarettes, Falco. The cigarettes.
How did he contact you?
He came to see me after a performance.
He was looking for an actress
for a special role.
- That's putting it mildly.
I had to pretend to be
Léa Joubert with Dr Dalmasso.
Show suicidal tendencies,
say as little as possible.
Yeah, an easy way to make money, right?
Fooling the shrink was nothing.
Every week I got money.
I didn't ask any questions.
And Benzia, was he
part of the plot against the shrink?
No.
That wasn't fair, it just happened.
Hello.
- Hello.
I lost my head, there was
something strong between us.
After six weeks I had to disappear.
Leaving Robinson was awful.
But there was no choice,
it was the deal to disappear.
And it all turned to shit when you ran
into Dalmasso in Lille.
She told me that Léa
Joubert, the real one, was dead.
I didn't really understand.
- You were involved in something
that got completely out of hand.
That's true, but I...
didn't know what he had planned.
- The psychiatrist tried to understand.
Joubert must've thought we'd
never make the connection
between the death of
his wife and Dalmasso's.
But she could still write
Léa's name before she died.
What will happen to me?
Miss, you're being charged
with identity theft.
But thanks to you, we have Joubert.
Whether he confesses or not.
The judge will take that into account.
Come on, Chevalier.
I'll treat you to breakfast.
- With pleasure.
Do you want to tell me?
- What?
Why you went to a psychologist.
I can't say.
- You don't have to be ashamed. I'm proof.
I was required to. Just like you.
Why?
By leadership.
Because I made an error.
What kind of error?
I killed someone.
- Shit.
Who, a suspect?
Someone on the team.
Who was it?
What happened?
He irritated me. Terrible taste
in music, disgusting humor.
I couldn't take it anymore.
Well done! Classy!
Hey boss, this one's on me!
I'll try my best.
- You better!
