Philippe Cheron, pathologist.

Working with the man
who lives with your wife,

that's not right.

I want you to look at me and say
you no longer feel anything for him.

You're acting strange.

SONIA: And your
nightmares, do they continue?

How long ?

EMT: Sorry?
How long have I been here?

GRUNTS

EMT: Keep calm, sir.
I'm taking you to the hospital.

Thanks, thanks.

The hospital; I've already given.

Where's the person I hit?

EMT: It was just you.

How... Just me?

\h\h\h\hAll right?

EMT: You all right?

No.

Not now, no.

I'm not sleeping, and

I think I'm playing
tricks on myself, actually.

EMT: Look, take these once a day.

No more.

Don't mess with the dosage.

OK. Thanks for that.

Can you help me move it?

DOOR CLOSES

FOOTSTEPS

Hi.

I just came to pick
up some things.

I was sure you'd
be in class. Sorry.

\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\hWell, I...

\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\hWell, I... forgot my mobile.

CLEARS THROAT

How are you?

And you?

Still at the hotel,

waiting to rent
an apartment if...

I didn't say that
to pressure you.

I know.

Do you know what
hurts the most in this?

That I'm neither
your husband,

nor Pauline's father.

I felt like we got
past that together,

all these years.

\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\hUntil...

\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\hUntil... Falco woke up.

I just need a little
time to deal with it.

You had 22 years
to deal with it.

I don't understand how she could
have ended up in the woods.

Was she with you last night?

No, She was with Mathieu, my son.
He is 19 years old, He had to keep her.

I spent the night at my mother's house.

She told you about what happened, right?

Nothing specific, she told me about a noise,

an explosion, a car, Mathieu.

And where is my son?
He's not answering his mobile.

I'll find him.
Do you have a photo of him?

Does your son have a car?
Um yes.

What kind?
Uh... a Corsa.

Color?--excuse me.

Uh, orange-- is this all right?

Fine.

I'll call you when I have news.
Thank you.

MOBILE RINGING

...

You're not answering?
No, I don't want to talk.

Do you have a princess, 'knight'?

LAUGHS
Oh no, more like the queen mother.

True, it's not the same.

She wants to improve my situation-

Doesn't she know you're a cop?

No, I have a good job,
she wants me to settle down.

It's normal, that's mothers.

Except that she really wants to
introduce me to her neighbor's daughter:

Marie Claire, a Breton.

Wife, kid, house, labrador...

Honestly, who dreams
of something like that?

A lot of people, Chevalier.
A lot of people.

"Stop"!

Back up, Chevalier.

There.

They were shot at.

Headquarters for Cristal.

Headquarters for Cristal.

Yes, Cristal, I hear you.

Yeah, Lt Chevalier.

We found Mathieu Orueta's car.

Bullet holes on the left
side and rear window.

Blood inside, no body.

Over.
I read you, Lieutenant.

I'll notify the PJ
and the pathologist.

Chevalier!

Shit.

I think we have a problem here.

Who is he?

I don't know.
In any case, they tortured him.

Oh fuck...

The victim was called
Florian Rotin, 22 years old.

Multiple lacerations,
cigarette type burns,

face and body bruises.

He took the first bullet to the shoulder,

and he was finished off with a
bullet to the head an hour later.

EVA: Thank you sir.

That was Mathieu and
Florian's headmaster.

They were at the
school of tourism together.

From what he told me

it's a little tense between them.
They fought last week,

and it was quite violent.
Mr. and Mrs. Rotin are here.

CHEVALIER: Bring them in.
CHERON: No no, (stay there).

Hello, I'm Philippe Cheron,
the medical examiner.

Do we both have to do this?

No, one parent is sufficient.

I'm sorry, I can't. I can't.

Do you need a drink?

The last time I talked to
him, I called him a little jerk.

Unfortunately, you never know

when it's the last time we
talk to the people we love.

What was your son doing last night?

As usual, he was with his girlfriend,

Adelina. Matthew too.

Adeline who?
Aunis.

Adeline Aunis.

And Mathieu and Florian,
did they get along well?

They've been friends since they were kids.
I never really got that kid.

Nervous, can't stand still.
Have you talked to him?

Not yet.

Has your son changed recently?

I mean his
relationships, in his dating?

Yes and no.

He wanted to take a sabbatical

to go around the world
with Mathieu and Adeline.

We didn't agree about
dropping out of school.

Who could have done
such a thing to my son?

Who could have done
such a thing to my son?

I don't know, sir.

This morning we find Florian's
body a few meters from Mathieu's car

who himself is nowhere to be found.

Which gives us a good suspect.

Both, with Adeline.

You distribute their photos
and I relaunch the search?

Yes, and don't forget to
specify that they're armed.

They have known each other
since they were kids, Chevalier.

Would they have tortured
him or put a bullet in his head?

People don't kill their best friend.
And certainly not like that.

Love triangle, a fight that unleashes
jealousy, You know, Falco,

I don't have a wild imagination,

But I can give you 20 motives
for killing your best friend.

EVA: Oh no.

If I don't have your smile, what's
my motivation to come to work?

Ah well, Chevalier's jokes.

Did we locate Mathieu or Adeline?

Not found, their phones are off.

I'm waiting for credit card
statements to see if we can trace them.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hBreak, breakfast?

Thanks, commissioner.

No thanks.

Still no trace of the girl?

Nothing.

I'm a police lieutenant.
Don't hang up!

What? Police? Why do

Tell me where you
are so I can help you.

God...

Keep stalling.

Did something happen to him?

Calm down, we'll help you,

Listen to me:

your mother is worried crazy.
You have to reassure her.

We got his phone off the ground.

Maybe they took him, right?

They leave the girl half
dead and take him?

MAN: Okay. All right.

Guys shoot in broad daylight

I don't know who

I collected cell phones from passers-by.

For once voyeurism

No, press that.

He is therefore not the murderer,

KNOCKING
Yes?

Gentlemen.

Commissioner Cabit,
Anti-Robbery Brigade.

Pleased to meet you. Falco.

We got the ballistics results.

The bullet that killed Florian
is linked to one of their cases.

Can you explain for us?

Well, the gun was used in an
armed robbery, two weeks ago.

The robbery of a van,
rue des Capucines.

\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\hThe gun

but we're sure it's
Jonas Delmarian,

I know him, he's a big psycho.

This one?
Yeah.

Yeah, you've got custodies,
search and seizures,

but it's impossible to prove anything.

Meanwhile, this guy has a pedigree
as long as his third arm.

Why would an organized crime
figure fall on some kids like rabbits?

I don't know.

Maybe Delmarien had recruited them.

In the school of tourism?

Eva.

They must have seen
something they shouldn't have.

Like the robbery of the van.
For example.

Delmarian saw them too.

The questions are why
didn't they go to the cops?

'Cause he found them and
threatened them to shut them up,

if they wanted to live.

KNOCKS, DOOR OPENS

Sorry, I'm worried sick,

I haven't taken a break since yesterday.

I understand.

I'll help you, wait.

Oh, thanks.

Did she say anything
else about what happened?

No, she said she
heard it was an accident,

I don't think she really knew.

Apparently, Mathieu
told her to run very fast.

He probably saved her life.

Oh, Zoe, look who I found
who was looking for you.

So I tell her good, I know
her, I'm going to be seeing her.

A magical little teddy bear.

What do we say Zoe?

Oh, who cares about thank yous.
Do you like him?

\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\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hYes.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hThat's what counts.

Did you hear Mathieu
or one of his friends

talk about a Jonas Delmarian?

No.

Yes, of course.

Zoe, want to show her your room?

Eh?
Yes?

See you soon, cher.

Listen, madame,

if I don't find your son before he does,

the next time you see him will be
to identify his body at the morgue.

Do you understand?

It's no use lying to us.

Two days ago, in front of the building,

he held the door for me, he asked
me to say hello to my son for him.

Is he the one
looking for Mathieu?

We don't know yet.

Your son is hiding.

He'll probably try to contact you.

Has he already?

No.

Very well.

If he does,

call me this number.

I don't know what Mathieu got himself into.

If his father was still here,
everything would be different.

Here.

Courage, madame.

\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\hWhat are you

What she said.

If his father had still been there,
everything would have been different.

We all do that.

What's that?
We all do that.

'If I had called,' 'if I had said no,'

'if i had said yes...'

'If I hadn't taken a bullet in the head.'

Chevalier, don't you think we
can have a parallel life, elsewhere,

in which we make other choices?

Is this a serious question?
Yes.

You, for example, if you hadn't been
a cop, what would you have done?

Umm...

Gendarme.

'Gendarme'?

Yeah, why?

No, nothing.

Right, I'm hungry. You?
Nope, Not there, no.

I'll find you, Chevalier, I'm coming.

Hello?

Speaking.

Where?

(Very well, on my way.)

I'll be back.

Just between us, is he
doing the lonely cowboy thing?

Well, yes.

MOBILE RINGS

...

Just a second.

Yes mom- Oh, sorry.
Yes, Mr. Prefect.

Mom, I told you never
to call me at work!

No, I- but, no...

Leave me alone
about Marie Claire, enough!

Yes.

Yes, that's all, I love you too. Kisses.

Oy.

Thanks for calling.

I've already lost my husband.
I don't want to lose my son.

Who's this? This blows!

Fuck! I told you, I'm handling this!

I'm sorry, darling.
But he's here to help you.

Help me? Adeline was killed in
front of everyone in broad daylight!

Where were you cops then?

Exactly, since you mention
it, we were there this morning.

I won't hide from you that it's hot.

Are you handling that too?

If you don't testify,
there's nothing I can do.

I can't.

You can't?
No.

I can understand that.

Since I get the impression that you
tackled something heavy this time.

He doesn't have a nice face.

Enjoy your meal.

Oh by the way, he came by to
see your mother two days ago.

Did you know?

If he doesn't find you, what
do you think he's going to do?

What are you saying?
He went to see her?

What are you doing here?
You have to protect her!

How? I have nothing against him.

On the other hand, if you testify,

I'll have SWAT on his ass in 5 minutes,
do you understand that?

That's useless.

He has friends everywhere,
he'd seek revenge on me.

By the way, why is he looking for you?

Unless you sign a
statement, you have nothing,

Come on, talk to me.

What happened was, Florian,
Adeline and I were at my bank.

Mm-hmm.

We were talking to a woman, and...

he and his homies stood next to us.

You saw their faces and you
saw the robbery, is that it?

I made a choice.
You're losing.

Give me a break!

Mathieu...
What!?

Did you forget what
I said? I won't testify!

I didn't see, I saw
nothing, I heard nothing!

Give me a break!
Don't get involved, okay?

I never do that.

Do you know why I'm gonna do this?

This isn't for you, it's for your family.

So you're right,
keep trying to replace your dad.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hWhy did you
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hlet him choose?

He has to be brought in.

He's scared and he's right.

If he's seen with cops,

we know what Delmarian will do.

He can still testify as 'X.'

'X'? What's that?

Since 2002, if the judge authorizes it,

omitting a name and signature
for anonymity is allowed.

Except that Delmarian will
know who grassed on him.

Where is he?

In an abandoned shack on the D316.

As long as Delmarian is a threat,
he won't talk, that's all.

And without him, we
have nothing on Delmarian.

Well, let's break the circle.

Come Chevalier, you'll see
we can apply pressure too.

Eva, ah , some coffee.

Of the police.

I'm not shaking your hand.

Please?
I'm not shaking your hand.

Nice of you to come see me.

Yeah?
Nice of you to come see me.

Yeah?
It's a change from the

Anti-Robbery Brigade cretins.

Ah, the BRB kids.

I was just talking about it with my colleague

I said to myself that as
how we'll be working together,

might as well meet directly.
What do you think?

Are we going to work together?
Uhhh...

you know, homie:
the killer, the cop, the arrest.

A bit like in action movies.

LAUGHS

A killer? Oh no, not here.

Isn't there a killer here?
Nope.

Oh shit, Chevalier, you see?

You like money.

Bling, Italian suit...

A real mini-Corleone.
Unfortunately for you

you have neither his class nor his talent.

About that,

I read the Capucines
robbery file.

Actually, well done, guys, great job.

No no, seriously. Fast, efficient.

Almost clean.

Unfortunately you
left witnesses behind.

And that, you know
you can't afford.

So you add intentional
homicide to armed robbery,

and suddenly, WHISTLES
you're running out of time.

For €150,000, I find that the
level of performance is quite average.

What do you think about it?

Oh yeah?

Witnesses? Is that what you were told?

Well yeah.

And you believed it?
Why not?

You're rather naive, Mister...
Falco, right?

Are you the coma cop?

Exactly.

I read your story in the press.
It moved me, sir.

Really?
Oh yeah.

What a tragedy, When you wake
up, having lost everything like that...

Everything, yeah.

Hey, maybe, lieutenant,

you're dreaming all of this.

Oh shit.

I don't exist, and
neither does your partner.

And if it is, you're crazy, alone,

lying on a hospital bed,
still in a coma,

when the world has forgotten you.

And there's someone
else fucking your wife.

MUTUAL FAKE LAUGHTER

You know, that's not stupid.

No, seriously, Chevalier, that's
not stupid.

So can I confide in you?
Yeah!

C'mere.
Yeah-

PUNCH, CRY OF PAIN
Okay okay!

That's it, that's it.

Touch the kid, and I
promise you I'll be back.

And this time you won't be
as happy to see me.

Good day, gentlemen.

WHISTLES

I think we've done a good
job of turning the tide. No?

We're going to successfully take a
complaint for police violence in the ass.

Dammit, what's wrong with your head?

Delmarian is impulsive, he'll react.

And in an emergency, we always
come up with some bullshit Chevalier.

I'm counting on it.

I put pressure on Delmarian

to push him into making a mistake.

But he'll find you eventually,
and I won't always be there.

MATHIEU: If I testify,
you know what will happen.

He'll kill me.

Then he'll kill my mother and my sister.

He already killed my best friend.
Do you know how that feels?

A little, yeah.

I'm going to leave with
my family, go far here.

FALCO LAUGHS

You've seen too many movies.

Guys like him, I know them.

If you talk, he gets 30 years.

He'll look for you until
he gets you, it's like that.

We'll see after some sleep.

Anyway, it's all right here.

...

Yes, Chevalier, a second.
Yes.

I'm listening.
I have something new.

Good or bad?

Uh, average. It explains
why Mathieu isn't talking.

The day of the robbery, the kids
were taking an exam outside of Paris.

They couldn't have seen Delmarian.

How's that?

Three days ago Mathieu bought
3 open round the world tickets.

Total of the transaction:
more than €10,000.

Eva's checking their accounts,

but we're assuming none of the three
had that kind of money in the bank.

Oh fuck.

Those morons robbed the robbers.

OK, I'm taking care of
it, Chevalier, right now.

But where are you?

Get up!
What?

Get up, damn it!
What's got into you-

You're really pissing me off.

You played with your friends' lives
and now you're playing with mine.

How much did you steal from him?
€20,000? €30,000?

Answer!
Everything!

€150,000.

We were squatting in a
cellar, we found a suitcase.

Is the money here?
Yeah.

I didn't want to spend
my life being a lackey.

Yeah?
Eating spaghetti all the time!

Struggling to pay the electric bill!

If I give Delmarian back his money
he'll leave us alone.

What are you thinking?

That he gets back his suitcase and

he's going to say 'Hey,
that kid, he has a good face,

I'll let him go'!?

He's gonna fuck you over! Wake up !

Fuck, it's all my fault.

I was the one who
insisted on keeping the money.

I even fought with Florian about it.

It's like I shot him in the head.
Fuck!

You don't know what you're talking about.

Would you have been able to
point a gun at your best friend?

Look. Like this. Get on your knees.

On your knees!

Look at me. Look at me!

Look him in the eyes, and pull
the trigger? Shoot him in the head!?

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hAnswer!

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hAnswer!\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\hNo...

So you don't know
what you're talking about.

In any event,

you don't shoot your best friend.

DELMARIAN: Mathieu!!!?

MACHINE GUN FIRE

Besides your mother, did you
tell anyone else where you were?

Yes, my friend Rachid.
He's helping me return the money.

Follow me.

Mathieu?

Come out!

We know you're there!

Give me back the dough!

It's mine!

Everything is mine.

Even your friends.

Come here, Rashid.

Is that him?
Yes, that's him.

Come on Mathieu, come out.
They won't do anything to you.

You sure you won't come out?

Get that little shit back here!

Move, asshole.
Stop.

Come on, hurry up.

Little motherfucker. Shit.
Where's my money?

Tell me where my money is
or I'll kill you!

You can't kill me.
I'm with a cop!

Which cop?

Falco.

Falco!

It's either you or the kid!

Don't be afraid.

It's just for now.

137.

Well then, you didn't get bored,
you bastard. Some's missing.

Good to see you, Falco.

Which of you do I kill first?

Start with me.

Start with me!

No, the kid.

FALCO LAUGHS

No, you. Because you're laughing.

It's just that you have something
in the middle of your face.

COP: Police, don't move!

You, don't move!

What do you think, am I dreaming?

Eh?

Don't move!

You OK?

Great.

I'm glad to see you, Chevalier.
Me too.

Yes, OK. Yes, that's nice.

Thank you, goodbye.

You coming?

That was the hospital about Adeline.

She's going to be OK.

And my son, what
will happen to him?

He must remain in police custody,

because he's going to stand trial for
receiving, and obstructing an investigation.

If the judge is lenient,

he'll only get a few hours
of community service.

OK.

Thanks.

Adeline is fine.

We can go?
You can go.

Thanks for the cavalry.

How did you find me?

Don't forget I'm a cop, Falco.

Rising gendarme.
FALCO LAUGHS

Chevalier...

My knight.

Come here, that's nice.
That's a good kid.

EVA: Want to get a drink?

Absolutely.

Because my mother, she decided
to drop the Marie Claire thing.

We have to celebrate.

What did you tell her?

That I met someone.
No!

I lied, I'm in deep shit.
She absolutely wants to meet her.

I have to organize a dinner.
I have to find someone.

No. Don't even think about it.
Be nice, it's Chevalier after all.

Why not?

And his mother.
That's true, that's not easy.

It must be said.
You coming?

Not me, not this evening.

Because I saved your life
and it traumatizes you?

No, that would suit me fine.
But I need some sleep.

Sleep, you?
Happens even to the best of us.

Oh, well good night then.
That's the idea.

I'm going to say goodbye to
your godfather, be right back.

My friend! My friend! My friend!

You get home safe, watch out.

See you later.
Yeah, that works.

What are you doing, Carole?

You have to ask?

Put it down... Put the gun down, honey.

It's dangerous.

It's not dangerous, since it doesn't exist.

It's not real, Alex.

What do you mean, "it's not real"?

Everything you tell yourself is not real.

Even this gun.

Stop lying to yourself
because you can't face the truth.

I just wanted our life to be...

the one we should have had,

if I hadn't been shot, that's all.

"If you hadn't been shot"?

It was Jean-Paul who
shot you, and you know it.

But if you want to keep
denying the truth, go ahead.

Finish the bottle of drugs,
it'll go faster.

Don't say that.

I'm begging you, don't say that!

SHOT

On the next episode of Falco:

Well what's the problem?
She's been dead 17 years.

Clara Benetti, 3 years-old,

murdered in 1996 by Michel Drouet.

If he didn't kill her, where was she?

I know enough about Clara to
make you come here, on your knees,

begging me to say something.

He's a good guy, he'd never do that.

Can my phone take photos?

Well, yes. Why?

How does it work?
