SERGE IN PAIN

- Thea, pass me a belt.

...

THEA: You have to
call Emergency Services.

SERGE: No! I have a bullet
in the leg, are you crazy?

- MORGANE: Scissors.
SERGE: I could go to jail.

- Is your artery affected?

If that is the case,
you'll bleed to death in 10 minutes

- What did you say-? AHHH IT HURTS!

- Serge! Whose money did you hide here?

- Hold on- AIEE!
MORGANE: Who?!



- Biker friends who have
problems with the police.

MORGANE: Of course.
SERGE: But they're fair.

They're picky about deadlines.

- If you think you can use my place
like a nursing home you're crazy!

- Oh, it'll be alright, Morgane!

I- I- I'll give them their money back,

they'll calm down.
MORGANE: Yes... they'll let it go.

MORGANE: Yes... they'll let it go.

MOBILE RINGING
MORGANE: Yes... they'll let it go.

MOBILE RINGING
SERGE: That's everything!

MOBILE RINGING
Hold on.

MOBILE RINGING

MOBILE RINGING
Don't move.

Yes, Gilles. I'm listening.
- Yeah, Chez Morgane,



- (It's like a spear.)
- we have a crime scene.

- Yes- but, ah, well, no,

I can't come,

because I have a leak.
- That's my box.

- You had plumbing repairs
last year, Morgane.

Think up something else that
won't make Celine raise an eyebrow..

- Well, I'm coming, OK?

I'll be there soon.

- Morgane! What've you done?
Where's my €40,000?

HIGH INTELLECTUAL POTENTIAL

GILLES: We found this guy dead
in a bunny costume.

We've made our findings. Bye.

- Eeee!
- Ready to get started?

- Yeah, I'm telling you,
that Celine, if she started to-

- What is that, Morgane?
- (Shit.)

GILLES: What is it?
SHE SPITS

- Good morning, Morgane.
- Good morning.

Is it blood?

You didn't rub
up against the victim?

- No, she just arrived.

- No, she just arrived.
THUNDER!

- Well, oh my, I'm a meatball!
THUNDER!

- Well, oh my, I'm a meatball!
LAUGHS

Well yes, I went close

to see if I could find anything, and...

and there was contact.
I'm such a meatball!

So, what happened to this rabbit?

BONNEMAIN: Multiple head trauma.

He was hit in the face with that rock.

- Ouch.
- It was sometime between 1 and 3 am.

- Did we find any ID on him?
GILLES: Nothing at all.

The injuries to the face means
it'll be hard to identify him.

TEXT ALERT
The injuries to the face means
it'll be hard to identify him.

Pardon.

TEXT ALERT
Pardon.

Hello?

KARADEC: Morgane-- a man in a
rabbit suit, does that suggest anything to you?

- Well...yes.

Uh... maybe a sandwich board man.

Or a guy who worked
at an amusement park, maybe.

GILLES: That was Daphne.

A certain Will Zhao has disappeared.

His friends were
throwing him a bachelor party.

Guess what he was wearing.

MORGANE: A bunny costume?

Oh, yeah. Yeah: 'bachelor party.'

That makes sense too.\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h- Yeah.

KARADEC: The same bunny costume.
GILLES: Yeah.

WERE YOU ABLE TO RETURN THE SOFA?

Where are we going now?

- Where the victim was
supposed to get married.

Oh, yeah.
TEXT ALERT

THEA: NO, THEY DON'T GIVE REFUNDS.

SERIOUSLY???
- Alright, Morgane?

You're glued to your mobile.
Is there a problem?

- No. No, in fact, I received
a parcel from the post office.

- Mm-hmm.
- I wasn't the intended addressee,

but I opened it.

So that's quite a mess.

There's stuff to fill out.

Is there anything worse than red tape?

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hGOOD, GO TO
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hCASHBANK & RESELL\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h- And...

- What?
- New restaurants?

- Uh, yeah, I mean-

Oh shit!

- Have you been to these
restaurants with people?

- If you don't act
right away, it stains.

This is so bogus.

- As we thought that
if we were both free...

- Huh?
- We could...

- You say something?

- No, nothing.

- That's it.
Forget it, it's done.

Don't have a spare shirt in the car?

- Yes. A jacket too. Use both.

- Yes, so...
there's nothing funky about it.

- It suits you pretty well.

MANDARIN

ALAIN: Wait...
GRANDMA: It's so warm.

KARADEC: Good morning.

Cmdr. Karadec
from the Judicial Police.

I'd like to speak
to Aurore Delaunay, please.

- She's my daughter.
What's it about?

It's about her fiancé, Will Zhao;

we think he's been killed.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hMANDARIN

MANDARIN
"Yesterday I was woken up

MANDARIN
by noise from the next room."

MANDARIN
"There was crashing and yelling:
BOOM BOOM BOOM!"

MANDARIN
"It sounded like when my sisters would play."

- She's Will's grandmother.
She said she heard noise last night

from my daughter's room,
crashing and shouting.

- Where is her room?
- Up there.

Aurore!

AURORE!

AURORE: Dad? Why are you yelling?

- Good morning, Miss.

- Good morning.

WILL: What's the matter?

- Are you Will Zhao?

- Yes. Why?

MANDARIN
GRANDMA: You aren't married yet!

MANDARIN
Before the wedding! Shameful!

- We found a watch on the body.

- That's my driver, Samir.

- 'Samir' what?

- 'Masmoudi,' Samir Masmoudi.
I think he's Tunisian.

- Samir was wearing the same
costume as you when he was killed.

Do you know why ?

- I asked him to put it on.

I didn't want a bachelor party,
but my friends insisted,

So I got the idea, to leave.

They were drunk and
wouldn't have noticed anything.

- What do you know about Samir?
WILL: Not much.

He worked for me for 9 months.
KARADEC: Mm-hmm.

- Will we still be able to get married?

I know it's a little selfish, but...

but we've been waiting
for this moment for so long.

- It's a bit early to answer that question.

- Thea, did you manage to sell-

Excuse me!

Huh?
- Yeah, uh...

I sold our phones and Eliott's sneakers,

so that's €850.
- That's all?

That's not even 50% of the prices!

And did you sell that stuff on the internet?

PLANNER: ...this looks very nice.

It's very good work.
THEA: Yeah, well, the money-

- (What- what is that?)

No no no! No no no no no no no!
This looks beastly-

- Hold on, there's some
crazy mouth talking BS.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h- Get rid of this for me-\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h- Huh?

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hclear away everything.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h- (Seriously, Thea,

€70? We owe 40,000!)

- Listen, I'll do what I can.

PLANNER: What is that ?

Mrs. Delaunay is going to hate it!
Get them out of my sight.

Where can we put them? In the toilets-

TEXT ALERT
Where can we put them? In the toilets-

TEXT ALERT
Hold on, don't move...

WILL IS ALIVE.
IT WASN'T HIM IN THE COSTUME.

Yes.

Yes.
TEXT ALERT

WHERE ARE YOU MORGANE?

I'll call you back.
I have to go.

- Mrs. Delaunay, I found a
better wine to replace the one you had,

It's a Château Grimont 2013,
a superb wine. But you have to order it

quickly to be delivered on time.

LAUGHS

MAGGIE: What? What is it?

- No, nothing! No?

- Yes! You were amused-- "why"?

- Well... CHUCKLES

it's a joke, isn't it?
- Of ?

- Your bottle. It's a Bordeaux,

according to the shape.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hPLANNER: Yes?
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h- Well, 2013 was

a shitty year for Bordeaux!

- Pardon?\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h
\h

Well, between the rainy
spring that favored mildew,

the dry July with heat spikes
which dried up the vines,

and August's midday thunderstorms

postponing maturity of the grapes,

Bordeaux winegrowers were up in arms!

Yeah. At the same time, I'll tell you,

if you wanna get drunk for

a caterpillar,* it does the job, huh?
* CONGA LINE

GHISLAINE: 'Caterpillar'?
- Yeah, it's great!

♪ BOOM! BOOM! ♪

- ♪ Shaka shaka laka-
- BOOM! BOOM! ♪

- We're not doing a caterpillar, are we?.
- No!

No no no, no caterpillars!

No caterpillars, no no.

Excuse me, can we can talk for a minute?

Pardon me-- who are you?
You're from 1001 Weddings, right?

Here to steal a big contract from me?
- What?

- I'm not serving
cheap wine to my guests.

The contract was for the 2010.
- "That's it!"

No, I already told you--
the 2010 vintage is out of stock.

Out of stock!
- Not my problem.

- Not your problem?
You're making it my problem?

This is my problem?

You want this disaster?
I'm giving it to you.

There-- I resign.

Here's the seating plan, the invoices, the
memos, my assistants-- you take over.

I'm not gonna burn
myself out for €50,000!

Thank you!

- (Hey...)

Fifty...?

(Fifty-thousand...)

Uh- Constance... de la Villardière,

uh- "wedding" planner!

So-- my timing is flawless!

DAPHNE: Per Bonnemain,
the fingerprints

taken from the body are
those of Samir Masmoudi,

he's the victim.

- What do you have on him?
- Not much.

Born in Tunis in 1996, came
to France illegally 12 years ago,

but is in the process of being naturalized.
- Okay...

Have the couple's
witnesses given us anything?

GILLES: The shots you did,

- Uh...
GILLES: The shots you did,

was it before or after you left-

DAPHNE: Not much.
Gilles is questioning them.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h- What shots?\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h- The shots-

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h- I don't remember anything.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h- What shots?\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h- The shots-

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h- I don't remember anything.

- ...it was my "room."
DAPHNE: They were really drunk.

That's it.
MORGANE: Follow me.

I booked a photographer.
We're going to shoot here.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hPerfect!\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hDAPHNE: Hello?
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h- There'll be "business contacts,"\h\h\h\h\h\hCommander?

MAGGIE: we want nothing vulgar.
MORGANE: You came to the right person,

because I hate vulgarity.

We're going to go classic, you'll see!

- Good morning ma'am,
Cmdr. Karadec of the Judicial Police.

- What's going on?
- Maggie Zhao, I'm Will's mother.

- Delighted, ma'am.

- Constance, you'll take care of
the photos of the young people?

- 'Constance'?
- Yes!

Nice to meet you.
Constance de la Villardière,

wedding planner!
May I introduce my team?

Mandy, my assistant...

MAGGIE: Constance?

The photos, please.
- Yes, right away.

MAGGIE: Right, Commander,
are we going to talk in private?

MORGANE: The best rate, sir.
I love it! That's it.

- No. No no no-- excuse me--
I still have questions for your son.

MORGANE: And... Mandy,
will you center the heart? There.

- (Morgane!)

- (('Constance'!))

GASPS

...

AURORE SCREAMS

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hGASPS

DAPHNE: (Pssst!)
GILLES: What?

- Were you born at 10:15 pm?
- Yes, why?

- Your rising sign.

I've compiled the signs
of everyone at the DIPJ,* and
* PJ INTERREGIONAL DIRECTORATE

not a single earth sign
in the command corps.
* PJ INTERREGIONAL DIRECTORATE

- Yeah, but astrology is...
- What?

- Uh... it's debatable.
- No. It's not debatable.

- It- it's true that I didn't
get my promotion in July.

Do you think it's related?
- You're Taurus with Virgo ascending.

Yes, it's related. It's linked.

- Yeah...
- Earth? Earth.

- You can't embed with suspects!
Can you imagine

the consequences if you're discovered?

- I was undercover, Karadec!

A basic is not saying
that I work for the cops.

- You know exactly what infiltration is,

it implies preparation, rules,

rigor and-- excuse me-- discretion!

Even if it were possible,
I wouldn't suggest it to you.

- OK.
- OK!

- OK!

- At least it's clear.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h- OK...

KARADEC: Anything new?

- I've been on with Tech Services.
The spotlight was sabotaged.

Someone was looking to kill Will Zhao.
- Oh fuck.

MORGANE: What did
I tell you from the start?

He's the target!

The killer screwed up and killed
the driver, because of the costume!

Seriously, Karadec, I have to get back.

- In your dreams, Morgane!

CELINE: Unngh... I got an earful
from the Prefect just now.

CONFUSEDLY
Oh, Morgane, is that you?

What's the story with the
incident at the Zhao-Delaunay wedding?

Commander, apparently you
spoke very badly to Mrs. Zhao.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h- The groom's mother.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h- What?

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h- The groom's mother.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h- What? No way!

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hI was doing my job.

- According to her,
you were extremely rude.

TERSE - Ah.
KARADEC: Nonsense.

So what?\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h
- It's true that

that you were a little dry.

CELINE: It seems this woman is acquiring
a lot of companies in the region,

the Prefect is eating out of her hand.

- So what, is our case threatened?

- Worse! Not only do
we need to get fast results,

we have to investigate
without going to the site,

so as not to disrupt
the wedding preparations.

KARADEC: Easily said! There was
an attempt to murder the groom--

--twice!
- Yes, but Mrs. Zhao has

called in her own security.
You screw up, this happens.

- I know- I know what to do.

We should have someone who is not

officially from the police, and who has

a good reason to be there.
That's what we need!

- Morgane, no!

- Hold on.

What are you thinking?

♪ MISSION IMPOSSIBLE KNOCKOFF ♪
What are you thinking?

♪ MISSION IMPOSSIBLE KNOCKOFF ♪
- No way!

♪ MISSION IMPOSSIBLE KNOCKOFF ♪
:

- Right.

Morgane is going to infiltrate the wedding.

She will be our eyes and ears.

The first lead to follow is the groom's family.

DAPHNE: Will is the son of Maggie Zhao,

the founder of a Shanghai import-export
company worth hundreds of millions of yuan.

Will is an only child, meaning if he dies

it's his cousins who ​​inherit the fortune.

Unless-- he gets married.

Find out everything you
can about these people.

- French fries, for the kids.
- Yes.

- Sushi... The cake...

Very important.

- Constance!
- Shit...

- Yes!
- Sorry to disturb you.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h- By all means!\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h- I wanted to tell you:
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\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 crayfish in the bisque.

My cousin is allergic.

- Yes. I'll take care of it immediately.

- Thank you so much!
- Right away!

- No problem- oh shit...\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h- I'll let you work!
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hIt's looking nice!

- The second lead:
the Delaunay family. Gilles?

- Alain Delaunay. He has a fertilizer
production company in Arras,

which has been struggling
for the past six years.

The family had to sell
40% of the shares to outside investors.

His daughter's
expensive wedding won't fix it.

INDISTINCT

- Constance?

- Yes?
- Help me, it's a disaster.

Look: Sandrine's peonies are
cream-white, not silk-white.

- Yeah...! Well, I called the florist.

OK then: in white, he only
has tulips-- not great.

OR-- OR: irises. Not bad, right?

- No, no. I want peonies or
I'd rather cancel.

- OK! No problem!

- I'll cancel...
- I'm taking care of it!

I'll paint them! LAUGHS

KARADEC: Obviously,
I'll paint them! LAUGHS

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hthere will be rules.

A prohibition on committing
offenses during the operation,

or inciting others to commit offenses.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h- Yes...
or inciting others to commit offenses.

- Compulsory reports every 2 hours.

And a prohibition on accepting bribes.

- Is that clear?
- Clear!

MORGANE: Mrs. Zhao!

Mrs. Zhao, I found
a solution for the table plan.

Uh, I'll take this opportunity to ask
you not to forget my deposit.

- Yes, I asked my accountant to pay you
the amount after the ceremony,

within 48 hours I imagine.

- Well, anyway, yes, actually...
SIGHS

SIGHS
Yes?

- The generator gave out! I asked
France Electric for an exemption.

- Ah...?
- The generator's failed!

- The thermostat on the veranda is stuck.
The flowers will die.

- A cousin wants to add a plus-one,

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h- The fridge is full.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h- The fridge is full.\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h- What do we do?

AURORE: Morgane?

I've tried calling 3 times!
We said every 2 hours!

- (Leave me alone, I can't talk,
the crazy lady's looking for me.)

- Are you in danger?

- No, but jeez, marriage
makes people crazy.

- So it would seem.

Besides,

I was thinking... maybe we
could... have dinner together,

when you're done...

to talk about the
investigation... or something.

- Uh...

Yes, if you want.
- Great!

- Well, I won't hide that
I'm tired, this has been a crazy day.

- We could go to Chez Ranir
if you want-- or anywhere you want.

- Yeah, OK, Ranir's.
At least I know where it is.

- Yes. LAUGHS All right.

Great. 8 pm, would that suit you?

"Fuk"!

- What?
- "Fuk"!

The three statues!

We have our motive!

- What statues?
- The ones Mrs. Zhao's put

all over the place.

I'll explain. Fuk, Luk, and Sau are
three super important gods

in the Chinese pantheon, 'kay?

They represent
happiness, prosperity, and longevity.

Needless to say, all Chinese families

have these three statuettes
in their living rooms.

SHE CHUCKLES
- I don't understand, Morgane.

Can you explain it to me?
- RIght-- uh...

Gilles said there are
three companies that hold

40% of the capital of
the Delaunay Company, okay?

- Mm-hmm.
- "French Union Kapital,"

the funder "Loans United Kingdom,"

and SA Ulysse.

OK? Good.

If you take the initials

of these three companies,
what do you get?

Well, you get "Fuk Luk Sau"!

Therefore, In my opinion, there's
only one person behind these companies.

I'd bet anything that
this person is none other than

the mother of the groom!
Heh heh! ((Shit.))

- OK, so Maggie Zhao

secretly bought 40% of Delaunay's company--

--for what purpose?

- (Karadec, think about it a little!)

- What do you think?
- Aurore owns 15% of her parents' business.

So, technically...?

If Will and Aurore get married,

the Zhaos are majority shareholders,

unless Will dies before
the wedding ceremony.

- And who absolutely
wants to keep his business?

- I wouldn't hurt Will.

It's true that I was furious
with him when I found out.

My daughter loves him.
I thought he used her.

But he explained.

He swore to me he was
unaware of his mother's shenanigans.

- Did you believe him?
- No.

No, obviously.

But he promised me he would sign a prenup.

He kept his word.

Why would he do that if he
married my daughter for her shares?

No, it's all my fault.

After the explosion last year,

I had to find money fast;
it was too fast,

I chose my investors too quickly.

- An explosion?

What explosion?

- A gas leak, Karadec. A gas leak!

Everyone was traumatized by the explosion.

Right, I'll explain. Last year
there was a gas leak

at a property owned by the Delaunays.

Aurore, our future bride,

who lived on the first floor, almost died.

Fortunately, Will,
who was passing by,

heard a girl calling,

and went into the building to save her!

That's how they met. How romantic!

Except the "happy ending" wasn't general:

because another tenant in the
building died in the explosion.

As a result, lawsuits, expert opinions,

blah blah blah!

No, but with the kids, we're

You might like it.

- Hi Mom.

Do you have money?
- No.

But I'm working on it.

Serge, how is he?

- Well, I know what you're gonna tell me

but with the fever, I had no choice,

I had to call...
- Wait. You told me he was average.

Not that he was in agony.

(Oh. It can't be true.)

- ((Sorry.))

AGNES: I did what I could.

I was a nurse, not a surgeon.

Hope the fever goes down, otherwise
you have to take him to Emergency.

Thanks for helping.

- How could you let
him back in your life?

You well know
that it always ends badly.

- I'm gonna stop you right now, because

I really had a long, hard day, OK?

I don't have the
energy for this today, alright?

Fine. Listen, take the kids to Ludo's,

I'll stay here and wait for him to wake up.

Don't worry, if all it took was one bullet

to get rid of your father,

someone would've already taken care of it.

Believe me.

SIGHS

CHARLOTTE: Once upon a time there was

a princess called Aurore.

She had everything to be happy,

but alas-- alas, she was not.

She missed-

SLIGHTLY IRRITATED

"Slide"?

Sandrine?
- Uh, yes? There it is...

There you go!

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hBOREDOM.
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hWAITING FOR
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hBETTER DAYS

- She missed "Amour,"

with a capital A.

- Oh, yes...!
- Excuse me, Constance.

May I entrust something to you?

A worker put his
sandwich on the guestbook.

- Oh shit !
- There's grease everywhere.

- Uh...
- Do you think we can re-sign everyone?

- Of course. I'll take care of it.

- Her life had no meaning.
She was about to throw it all away...

- Pardon, I'll let you get back to work.

OLIVIER: ...Until the day the
princess's castle exploded in an accident.

Boom!

A great misfortune that engendered
great happiness because that day,

Will was passing by

and listening only to his courage.

He saved the sleeping princess.

CHARLOTTE: And it was
in his arms that she woke up.

Um, Constance?

- Great. It was delightful! LAUGHS

It was-- heh heh!

Do you do theatre?

AURORE: 'Will, before
meeting you, I was lost.

I know that whatever

the obstacles ahead,
we will overcome them

because it will be you and me forever.'
- SCOFFS

- Iris?

I got you!

You don't look like a Sandrine.

The guestbook. When you signed it

you crossed something out on the S.

Who can't write their first name?

And then yesterday

when I offered Aurore
irises for the wristlets,

you turned and looked at me!

As a result...

May I?
- No, it's...

- I have to check, you can't say anything!

So, what do we have in here?

Uh....
- But...

- Heyyyy!
- But It's mine.

- Our not so crazy friend has no ID.

On the other hand, we have a
Sephora card, a Nocibé card,

an Aldi card,
yadda yadda yadda.

All in the name of 'Ms. Iris Thomazeau.'

Burned by your shopping addiction! Right--

so your first name is as bogus
as your relationship with Aurore.

Eh? Yeah, it's obvious you hate her.

- Back off!\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h- Wait, wait, calm down.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hI assure you, you're
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hnot gifted as a killer.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hThe loosened spotlight
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\halready failed,

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hdon't dwell on it.

There. Everything's good.

- They took everything from
me. They killed my sister.

- You mean your sister was in
the Delaunay building that blew up,

is that it?
- (Yes.)

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h- OK.

Listen, I'll call a friend.

We'll find a solution, alright? But this,

we don't even think about
it anymore. It's confiscated-- OK?

IRIS: When my sister
died, I lost everything.

I wanted him to know how it felt.

- Ms. Thomazeau, you've
been saying for a year

that the explosion that killed
your sister was of criminal origin.

But the experts are clear

that it was accidental.
- No no no.

No, I read the articles.

They received €2 million
from their insurance. €2 million!

- Much lower than
the value of the building.

Even if you were right, do
you really think the Delaunays

would've blown up the building
knowing their daughter was inside?

- You don't understand anything.

These people are
prepared to do anything.

- I think it's you who
is prepared to do anything.

Even kill Samir Masmoudi
in your quest for revenge.

- What? It's not me
who killed Samir, it's them!

He was the only one
who could take them down!

- How could he take them down?

- Last year my sister sublet
him a room in her apartment.

He wasn't on the lease
because he was undocumented.

He must have seen
something, now he's dead too!

- Hold on.
You're telling me Samir Masmoudi

was living with your sister in
the building when it blew up?

- Yes! I tried to reach him,
but he refused to talk to me.

I didn't understand it.

Then I saw him driving
their daughter's fiancee's car.

They bought his silence,
and then they killed him.

- The Delaunays didn't tell me they knew him.

- Can you prove what you're saying?
- Yes.

- Here is Iris and her sister with Samir.

This photo was taken in the Delaunays' building.

Samir was living there.

At the autopsy, there were
lesions in his eardrums--

typical of those caused by an explosion.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hMORGANE: -who's
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hdoing everything...

He was there the day of the explosion.
He must have seen something.

Neither the young couple nor
their families thought it worth mentioning.

- You think this woman is right,

they tried to buy Samir's
silence with employment papers?

MORGANE: Hey wait, here's my
expense report for my work clothes.

I'm counting on you to get on it,
because it's urgent, OK?

Yes? No-... !
- Anyway... Celine?

I don't believe in a coincidence.

If Samir wanted to denounce them,

the Delaunays have a motive.

MORGANE: Let me stop you there.
Regarding the fee,

I looked at it with my accountant

and the easiest way would
be to give a check

to my assistant, alright? Do you
have something to write with?

Yes, so: 'Morgane Alvaro.' Yes.

I'll send you a text summarizing all this.

(See you later, Mrs. Zhao. Bye.)

- What's the story\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h
about a check?\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h

It's not a bribe from
a family suspected of murder?

- Well no! No--

she's insisting, what am I gonna do?

Am I infiltrating or not?
This is part of it. So don't worry,

I won't cash the check.
- I hope not,

because there'll be
an audit after the assignment.

- Right, we've been staying away
from the Prefect's good friends

the Delaunays since the beginning.

Forgive me Celine, but
instead of your interest in expenses

we should put pressure on them. You agree?

- OK. I'll call the Prefect.
KARADEC: Thank you!

- You get started...

Alright, I'll get back...

and infiltrate stuff.

See you later.
- Yes.

Happy infiltrating!

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h- You get it?

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hShall we begin?

WHERE'S MY FUCKING MONEY?

- So, wait, first of all,
calm down-- otherwise I... eh?

Can we talk?

No? So, the money, I have it.

- Yeah? Great!
- Your money!

Yeah, OK, the problem is, simply,

I've- I've-

I've made a small investment.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hEXASPERATED

This is big, eh?

In three weeks, I'll give it
back to you with a profit of 25%-

- Shut up! Shut your fucking mouth!

I don't like it!

Where's my fucking dough?

- I- I lost it at the casino.

- I played.
MORGANE: NO-- TIME OUT!

It was me! It was me, I spent it!
I didn't know it was yours.

I'll pay you back, I'm just gonna
need you to give me 48 hours, alright?

Just give me-
- Shut your mouth.

- Don't mess around.

- Listen to me carefully.\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h

No no no, 24 hours.\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h

Will confessed everything to
me the night of his bachelor party,

that's why he came to find me.

He wanted to tell me

You told your fiancee the truth

Lack of discretion, breaching investigative
secrecy in front of the suspect's family.

And you, Morgane, I learn from the Prefect

- Oh, it was nice.

- That's not what I mean.

You weren't
totally into it either.

- Pardon?
- There was no obligation-

- Me, not totally into it?
CHORTLES

Sorry for not seeing the
deeply romantic dimension

of the Bombay menu at €8.50 at Chez Ranir.

The other thing-- "not totally into it"!

Especially after 3 months of silence!
Pardon me, good going!

- I suggested we could go somewhere else,

but you said 'Ranir, no,
it's great, it's convenient.'

- Because you told me it was so
we could do a debriefing to update you!

How could I know it's a date?
Can't you talk normally,

like everyone else?
- Well, no!

We don't say everything that
comes to mind. You have to decode!

- Pardon? I have to decode?

I am the queen of decoding!

I invented decoding!

I get paid to decode! That's fine!

Says I have to decode!
I don't give a fuck about decoding.

- Decoding people isn't your forte either!

Ah shit.

- You have a friend in this
neighborhood who will help us?

- Of course she'll help, you'll see.

I've always been
a bit of a hit with the ladies, eh?

So, Colette, she got me good.

Really good.
It's a story that's very-

Here, wait, this is it. Excuse me.

The problem is that
Colette is jealous. LAUGHS

Very jealous, a real tigress.

You should stand over there a bit.

Please be more careful.

CLEARS THROAT

That's good. Stay there.

Whoa!

COLETTE: Thierry!
- Colette!

You haven't changed!
Absolutely perfect!

COLETTE: What's wrong with your leg?

You're not in Albania?

THEY LAUGH

SERGE: I'll make myself at home!

DOOR SHUTS

COLETTE: Thierry, what are you doing?

MORGANE YELPS

C'MON, GET MOVING!

♪ JUST YOU AND I
BY FRANK SINATRA ♪

- Good evening.
- Good evening.

- Karadec, I'm sorry showing up
like this out of the blue.

I'm going crazy, I need to talk to you.

- Come in, by all means.



Excuse me,
I have something on the stove.



- I... I'm bothering you, aren't I?

- Uh...

I was going to sit down
to eat, but it's fine. What is it?

LUDO: I love you,

but sometimes it's
tiring living with you.

TIMOTHEE: I'm someone... uh...

- Yes.
- You're much more...



- No, nothing. Actually, I...

I- I'm sorry for
disturbing you, forgive me.

See you tomorrow.

- Are you crying?

- No. No no no, it- it's the rain.



- It's not raining.



- Yes, that's true, it's not.



(It's not raining!)

- (It wasn't raining!)

It wasn't raining!

Will wasn't with Aurore
the night of the murder.

He was at the scene
of the crime with Samir.

- I don't understand.
- OK...

We agree that our key witness

in this story is his grandma.
KARADEC: Yes.

- Gilles struggled with the translation
during the interrogation.

MANDARIN

APP ALERT
- Please repeat, I did not understand.

- I was surprised, she
actually speaks Mandarin,

the slightest change in accent
completely changes the meaning of a word.

- ...Of the words. OK.
- For example,

mom said she heard "tonnerre*."
* THUNDER

When Gilles had her repeat it,
the app translated "des larmes*,"
* TEARS

as in 'moaning.'

AURORE MOANING

AURORE: Oh... yes!
- Because in fact,

"thunder" and "tears" in Mandarin
are almost homonyms.

- OK.
- Don't look at me like that!

Yes, I have some notion of Mandarin!

I'm not "fluent," but I manage.

CHIT-CHAT IN MANDARIN

- In short, it was thunder
that she heard that evening,

along with the moans.

AURORE: Oh! Oh! Oh! YES!!!

Firstly, because no one
was crying in Aurore's room

and because there is indeed a
place where there had been a storm.

Sound familiar?

- Indeed. The crime scene was muddy.

- The crime scene was muddy!

While at the hotel, there was nothin'-- 'nada'!

Will was not with
Aurore in her room,

he was on the phone with Aurore.

In fact, thunder is the
background noise of the conversation.

Here it is-- I wandered around the hotel,

I hit all the rooms,
and in Aurore's room,

there is a bluetooth speaker.

- They used the grandmother
to pretend that he was in the room.

FAKING IT
Oh! Will!

FAKING IT

- Who do you thank?

'Thank you, undercover!'

I'm like an eel, Karadec.

I weave, I slip, I weave.

All right. He no
longer has an alibi.

Now you have to find a motive.

I can't work like this Morgane!

- And this is the only way I work.
Let yourself be swept away, huh?

- (OK.)

KARADEC: Morgane?

I have something. Look.

This photo.
- Yes?

It's in the appendices,
but it's not in the file.

MORGANE: Ah-huh...
KARADEC: We missed it.

The edges around the window
have been blocked. Strange, right?

- Either the person is very chilly,

or she wanted to
commit suicide with gas.

- Exactly!

'A4-B12.'

4th floor, apartment B12.

- That's Aurore's apartment.

She attempted to commit suicide.
She's responsible for the accident!

- Her life had no meaning.
She was about to throw it all away...

- Yes!

- If Samir saved Aurore's life,

he knew it was an attempted suicide.

- He was going to talk,
and Will bumped him off!

- He needed to hide Aurore's secret!

SHE GASPS
- We have a motive!

Morgane!

SHOUTS OF JOY

We have a motive!

...

- Morgane?
- Yes?

...

- Would you like to
have a romantic dinner?

- Yeah OK.

...

AURORE: What will happen now?

KARADEC: We will refer you for charges--

Will for intentional
homicide, and you for

the involuntary homicide
of Lucie Thomazeau.

AURORE: Don't worry, Will.

I'll wait.

I've waited for you all my life.

I can wait longer.

WILL: I had no choice.

I couldn't let her go to prison.

I took all the credit
when I had done nothing.

Samir saved Aurore
from the explosion that night.

When he told me he
was going to turn her in,

I wanted to protect her.

I couldn't escape it.
