Spiral (2005–…): Season 3, Episode 12 - Episode #3.12 - full transcript

Follows criminal investigations in Paris from all the different points of view of a criminal investigation.

Previously on Spiral...

On Friday night, the girls will leave
France to go to Holland.

We'll get some new girls in.

If you kill me,
I will squeal on the network,

everything I know, I swear.

You are going to write
your resignation letter.

What? And my mother.

You are heartless,

and you punish
the slightest human weakness.

Do your employees know

that they are being spied on,
even in the bathrooms?



If you want to get into big trouble,

it requires at least some formality,
Judge.

Fran?ois, it was me who organised

the extortion of businesses
in the district of Villedieu.

Due to your relationship
with our client,

we will issue an injunction
due to legitimate suspicion.

The guy who killed her

is called Niko. He is Albanian.

On Friday night, he'll trade
seven or eight girls at Dunkerque.

We don't have the choice any more.

We need to arrest them
when they exchange the girls.

They know where Ronaldo is.

We'll go lightly on them if they talk.

Did you tell anyone what you told me?



No.

Fuck, if we carry on like this
we'll be in Belgium soon!

We won't be able to do anything
on the other side of the border.

Are they behind us?

Looks like it.

Tintin, where are the walkie-talkies?

In the glove box.

OK. Everybody, we stop using Acropole
starting now.

Use the walkie-talkies Tintin gave you.

- Copied?
- Yes, Laure.

Copied, Laure.

By the way,
my leaving do is tomorrow night.

They're stealing the beer
at the reception.

Only beer, not champagne?

Well.

We won't feel like partying
if we screw this up.

To all, the cars are turning left.

They're going towards Dunkerque port.

I repeat. They're going
towards Dunkerque port.

Where are they taking us?

Our friends just arrived.

How many?

Two cars. Three, maybe four pimps.

They're entering the warehouse
at the end as planned.

You should see them soon.

Copy that.

They're stopping.

Everyone, stop at 300 metres.
I repeat, stop at 300 metres.

They've gone into the warehouse.

Hide in the wasteland
and watch the warehouse.

We're going round the back
to see if there's another exit.

OK.

We must not screw this up, guys.

They have Ronaldo. If we miss,

we won't be able to make them
tell us what they've done with him.

Let's go.

We have a problem.

We have some guys following our friends.

I think they might be cops.

Fuck, what is this mess?

What's up?

What about you?

Shark!
- Niko.

Stay here.
I'm going to see what's going on.

Keep a lookout. Let me know
if anything happens.

Laure to Nadia. We're hiding
on the other side of the wasteland.

Copy, Nana.

Alex to Laure.

We just spotted a hideout
with two guys inside.

I didn't see the Iicence plates,
but they could be cops.

Copy that.

What the hell are you doing here?

I've just seen a car
with Dutch number plates.

Where did you come from?

Dark-coloured vehicle
with tinted windows.

- Let's go.
- Turn off the radio,

- they'll see us!
- What's up with you?

Tani!

Good.

Niko, fuck.
- Leave me.

I'm telling you!

- There's a cop with them.
- What cop?

I don't know. They call him "The Shark. "

Boss, there's some movement.

The guy with the Ford sounds anxious.

They are getting nervous.

Listen, for fuck's sake!

It's the Shark.
He must have heard you on the radio.

We have to catch them now.

Go, go, go!

They're off. Get after them!

Copy that!

Everyone, go after them,

but watch look out for our friends
from the DPJ.

Wear your armbands. Understood?

OK. Copy that.

Received.

Don't move! Get out of the car.

Get out! Hands on your head!

Put your hands on your head!

- There! There!
- Don't move!

Don't move! Don't move! Got him!

Pick him up.

Here, hurry!

Hands on the roof!
- Let me go!

Hands on the roof!

I'm one of you! Shit!
Look inside my right pocket.

Spread your legs!

Come here, come here, come here!

Spread your legs! Spread your legs!
- Hands behind your back.

Don't move, don't move!

Hands on the roof.

Hands behind your back! There.

Don't move!

Don't move!

Sit down! Sit down!

Show me your hands!

Did Gilou leave?

I don't know!

I think he went this way.

What's your name? What is it?

Gilou is not here.

You understand me.

Gilou's not here. I'm coming back.

Gilou, do you copy? It's Tintin.
Where are you?

Gilou, do you copy? It's Tintin.
Where are you?

- Did you get him?
- We don't have Niko either.

We got Tani and Zef. Niko's missing.

What?

There's someone running away over there!

Go and check it out!
- Where is he? Over there?

Check the cars.

Did we get the documents?
- Here they are.

Nana, take care of it. Take care of it.

You take care of it.

Boss!
We've got a problem with a guy!

Check the documents.

He says he's a cop.

Hello.

Chief Superintendent Guignard. DCRI?

Listen, I've been trying to infiltrate
this ring for months.

I don't want to blow my cover,
so all I am asking you

is to not mention my name in the report.

Are we in agreement?

- We'll see.
- Thank you.

Are you in?

You work for HR at DCRI,
so tell your shit to the IGS.

Do you know what you are doing?
- Oh yeah.

Tintin, handcuff him
and send him with the others.

Try to find Gilou, please. Thanks.

We need to talk...

Later. Because we have to go now.

Wait, I'm still in charge here.

So we'll leave when I say we leave.

Unless you've got something to tell me.

OK. The Albanians are holding Ronaldo.

They were planning to kill him
once the girls were exchanged.

We need to find Niko quick.

All the paperwork's are at the office.
Can we go?

Everybody, let's go!

Back to DPJ.

Julien.
- Thank you.

Don't celebrate yet.

Let's go. You've got the keys.

I'm coming, you drive.

Gilou!

Are you OK?
- Fucking hell!

You scared me. You prick!

Are you OK? Fuck!

Where is Niko?
- Gone.

We've warned the Gendarmerie
and the PAF. Don't worry.

Can you get up?
- Come on.

Are you OK?

What's happening?

I left you loads of messages.
Why didn't you call back?

What's wrong?

I had a rough night.

You drank all that?

- Do you want a coffee?
- We don't have time.

We have a meeting with Judge Wagner
in an hour.

Did you even listen to your messages?

Did he say why?
- No, I talked to the clerk.

She wouldn't say anything.

Do you have any idea?

Wait for me. I'm going to take a shower.

Hurry up, please.
I don't want to be late.

Last night, Dylan Gautier and his lawyer
came to see me at my office.

He said he lied about Mr Cl?ment,
who had rejected him.

There was never any sexual contact
between them.

For me, the case is closed.
The judicial supervision is over.

Of course you can launch a complaint
against this young man, sir.

I don't think it is necessary
to take this any further, sir.

Your wisdom does you credit.

In the future put it to good use.

Roban took the case away because
he was fed up with your selfishness!

And you keep capitalising on the tips
for your own benefit!

What's in your head?

I've been tracking Ronaldo for weeks.

The case has consumed me.

I dream of it at night.
You can't understand.

No, I can't understand.

Look, Look! I can't understand?

You're totally obsessed with this guy.

Be careful, Laure,
you're about to hit a wall!

Let me catch him.

After that I will have time for us.

You will never have time for anyone.

Don't say that!

After this case,
there will be another one.

You work to fill the void, Laure.

Look at you, you're scared of living.

Let me... Let me finish.

You don't even listen to me.

I'll let you do the chasing,

but I'm taking care of Ronaldo.

Wait!

We've spent night looking for him,
I have hours of tapes!

What are you going to ask him?
You don't know the case!

We need each other.

Isn't that what you wanted?

What I wanted...

OK, you can come,
but I'm asking the questions.

Trafficking, conspiracy...

Do you how long you're in for
in France?

When you get out of jail,
you will be so old

you won't even remember
how to fuck a woman!

The judicial system doesn't go easy
on guys like you.

On the other hand,
if you help us catch a serial killer,

the judges may be nice to you.

Do you know him?

Never seen him.

Never seen him?

On the tapes,

Niko tells your boss that...
- What boss?

- I don't have a boss.
- Vlad's your boss.

Niko tells Vlad that you've hidden
Ronaldo in your cousin's basement.

On the tapes,
they call him the football player.

Where is your cousin's basement?

I have no cousin here.
They're all in my country.

Don't play dumb, Tani.

We've got your mobile.
We will find him.

I have over 200 numbers on my mobile.

Good luck.

Uke Schala has been here
since yesterday.

- You've got a visitor.
- I'm not expecting anyone.

Too bad because you are in custody
for trafficking and conspiracy.

So move you arse and come with us.

Come on. Get up.

- I'm not going anywhere.
- Don't be a dick! Move!

I'll show you, you fucker!

That's it!

What's going on? Let him go!

They beat me! I want to see a doctor!

Let him go! Where do you think you are?

Stop your bullshit
and get some reinforcements.

Who do you think I am, Lieutenant?

Do you think
I will risk a riot in my prison

for a simple custody matter?

- Do you know what this prick has done?
- I don't know and I don't care.

Are you listening?
There will be a riot here.

Do you want
to be hold accountable for it?

Gilou, let's go.

Fuck, do you have balls or what?

We'll be back to interrogate him
and we'll bring reinforcements.

- Let's go!
- Get up, get up!

Get up, get up!

Stop it! Stop it!

I've had enough! Come on, let's go!

Martin, walk them back. Close the door.

Thanks, Tintin!

Vlad refuses to leave his cell,

Niko is on the run.
What are you gonna do?

What?

Vincent, let me try.

Tani knows that you don't know the case.
He won't say a word.

I've got the girls.

They're scared, they won't talk.

Mila has things to say.
- Mila?

Niko's favourite.

Until he tried to get rid of her

by sending her and the other girls
to Holland.

She didn't take it well.

How do you know that?

You think you're the only one
to know something?

- What's up?
- I want a cigarette.

Give me a cigarette, please.

Thank you.

I agree to testify,
but I need protection.

You can testify anonymously.

Your identity and your personal address
will not appear in the file.

It's not enough.

What do you want?

Papers to stay in France, and a flat.

Do you want a car as well?

I am giving you the entire ring.
I risk my life for that.

Patricia must have told you
I wouldn't talk for nothing.

Patricia?

Yes. The girl who told you
about the exchange.

This is a police station!

You're not negotiating with a client!

Either you testify anonymously
or you're going down

for trafficking and conspiracy
to commit murder, get it?

What murder?
- Tatiana Sharipova.

We know everything, Mila.

How Niko killed her,
how he managed to convince everyone

she was a victim of
the Butcher de la Villette

and how her death helped free
Ronaldo Fuentes...

Do you want me to tell how you were
involved in your friend's murder?

I swear I did not know anything!

I suspected it was Niko,
but I couldn't say anything.

What would you expect me to do
in my situation?

Fine. No judge will buy your story.

It's up to you.

You like France,
we'll do something about that.

You're going to spend
the next ten years of your life here.

You want a cigarette?

Yes, please.

And if I talk...

they won't know it's me?

I swear.

Do you recognise him?

I saw him once at the docks.
He wanted to see Niko.

Do you know why?
- No.

It was the first time I'd seen him.

I didn't even know they knew each other.

Vlad and Ronaldo met in jail.

What we want to know is
why the ring helped Ronaldo.

Not Ronaldo.

Niko.

Explain.

The girls were panicking
after Tatiana's disappearance.

They suspected
something bad had happened to her

because her stuff was still
in the bedroom...

They were on edge,

they wanted to go to the cops.

Niko couldn't stop them.

They even started to suspect him.

I kind of knew it was him,

but I couldn't tell the others.

When we were told
that Tatiana had been killed

by the Butcher of la Villette,

I understood that the ring was behind it
in order to protect Niko...

And since they don't need
Ronaldo any more,

they decided to kill him.

They hid him
in Tani's cousin's basement.

Do you know where it is?

I've heard Tani talk about his cousin.

I know he has a restaurant close to...

Courneuve... Corneuve...

La Courneuve?

Do you know the name of the restaurant?

No, but I know
that his cousin's name is Malbor.

- Fire!
- What's happening?

The door. Open the door!
- What the fuck?

Fire, fire, fire, fire!
- What are you doing?

Tani, Niko, sons of bitches!

You fucked me, but I fucked you more!

Dear colleague!

I'm back.

Well,

I was expecting a less charming welcome.

Listen, I'm sorry, I didn't have time
to buy confetti.

What are you doing?

I'm going to away from the office
for a while.

Really? Where are you going?

Listen, I've got to go. I'll call you.

Can you tell me what's happening?

Are you ready?

You didn't have to come up.

Wait for me in the car, I'm coming.

Sir.

Did you spend the night with him?

Pierre, don't get involved.

The money in the envelope
at your place was his?

Tell me! Was it his?

Yes, it was! Are you happy?

Are you sleeping with him?

No, Pierre, I saved your arse!

What do you think? Szabo paid Dylan
to withdraw the complaint.

And you know why?

And now I have to work
with him again. There.

Why did you do it?

Because they would
have destroyed you, Pierre.

It's wonderful to believe in people,

to tell yourself that we are all good,
and all this bullshit...

Only it doesn't work like that.

You did that for me?

I don't know. What do you think?

So don't go back to Szabo.

Cancel everything.
Tell him to go fuck himself, OK?

Pierre, I signed.

What did you sign?
- I signed.

What did you sign? Show me!

Show me! I'm sure we can fix it!
Show me!

Pierre, let me go.

Let me go!

He's giving us the runaround.

He won't even say
he has a cousin in France.

Why don't you tell Bremont
to go buy some sweets?

I'm going to make the Albanian talk,
I'll show you.

Well, you are feeling better.

I told you it was nothing.

Don't joke out it, Gilou.
Go and see a doctor.

You're not going to get your knickers
in a twist about it either.

I care for you. I don't want you to die.

Laure! I am listening to the messages
on Tani's mobile

and guess what I found.

- Come, you're going to like it.
- Sure.

Tani, Niko, sons of bitchesl

You fucked me, but I fucked you morel

- Whose phone did he use?
- Malbor's.

And where is Malbor?

That's what we are asking you, Tani!

Talk! Don't you see your cousin
is in danger?

You can't come with us.
The DPJ doesn't have co-referral.

- Call Roban. He will fax you one.
- We don't have time.

You want to catch Ronaldo without me,
don't you

Stop being paranoid!
It's procedure, that's all.

Call him. We're all going.

Hurry up!

Go! Move!
- Where is it?

Mal! Malbor!
- Stay here! Stay!

He's alive.
Call the fire brigade!

Do it, Tintin!

Did your cousin carry a gun?

Yes.

Shit!

We could go to the movies after
if you want.

- What?
- What? You don't find me attractive?

Course I do!

Can't you stay a bit longer?

- I can't. I'm in a hurry.
- Just a bit longer.

Think about the movie. Bye!

I'll call you.

One word and I'll cut your throat.

Understood?

I want a live feed!
I don't want a one-hour delay!

I don't care!

You have aerials everywhere

and you can't intercept a mobile phone

when the police are looking for
a serial killer...

Great! No, Madam, no!

All right!

I can't believe it.
Because of these morons,

we're standing around waiting
for Ronaldo to escape!

She was already like that
when she was a trainee.

Remember! One word...

and you're dead.

Come on.

Please, let me go. I won't tell anyone!

Please! Let me go, please!
Where are we going?

Excuse me...

Hello. I work just there.

You can't park here,
I am waiting for a delivery.

- I'm going.
- Thank you.

Judge, I won't pretend that
over the course of my career

I haven't had many opportunities
to remove a judge from a case.

Know that doing so
doesn't give me any happiness.

If you're not happy, ma'am, don't do it.

Unfortunately, I'm afraid the reasons
your brother's lawyer put forward

totally justify the petition
for legitimate suspicion.

Of course... Ever since
the investigation began,

my brother has been trying
to have me taken off the case.

In that case, you should have asked
to be taken off the case yourself.

You know as well as I that impartiality
is essential for a case to go smoothly.

It's because I went beyond
the call of duty

that this case came about, ma'am.

The investigation doesn't stop, Judge,
you just pass it on.

No, ma'am. The investigation stops.
This is only the beginning.

Giving it to another judge
would kill it for good.

No, it means protecting
the serenity of justice.

I beg your pardon. It means
protecting the Presidency's quiet life.

No other magistrate will push
for results.

Whoever gets it will just
quietly drop it in a few months.

Thank God you're not
the only competent magistrate

at the Magistrate court.
I'll walk you back.

Madam, please sit down,
I am not finished.

I've been fighting all alone.

Once again I took all the risks,
all the knocks,

but instead of supporting me,
you've let me go.

Why haven't you ever come to my defence?

Where were you

when the court's office put a spanner
in the works?

When they tried to publicly disgrace me?

When they prevented me
from doing my job?

You didn't move your arse
from this seat!

- What's got into you?
- What were you afraid of?

That they would take your office away?

Today, investigating judges are blamed
for everything.

Some don't like our independence,
they want to make us disappear...

Because of whom?
Because of people like you, ma'am.

If you don't fight to protect the group
you represent,

don't be surprised
if they go out to destroy it.

That's all. Goodbye, ma'am.

Hello. Isabelle Ledor?. Please...

If you don't have a live feed,
tell me what's been recorded.

When? Half an hour? Whereabouts?

Charonne - Philippe Auguste. All right!

Charonne - Philippe Auguste.
Half an hour ago.

Hello. Isabelle Ledor?.
Please leave me a message.

Hello. Come in, everyone's
in the living room.

I'm sorry, what's going on?

You don't know?

Arnaud hanged himself in his bedroom
last night.

His mother found him.

- Was it him?
- Yes, that's him.

I asked him to move his truck.

He was on the kerb.
I was expecting a delivery.

What did the truck look like?

White, I think. With a big key
on the side. Probably a locksmith.

Was he alone?

Yes, I only saw him.

But after the truck was gone,
I found a bag on the pavement.

What was it like?

A woman's handbag
with English lessons inside.

She lives at 168.

I wanted to return it
but I didn't know which floor.

I left her a note.

Can we see the bag?

Yes. I'll fetch it.

Laure, it's me. Something's come up.

Yes, it's her bag.
Where did you find it?

In the street.

Is this your girlfriend?

Yes, it's her. Why?

I'll take the picture.
I'll give it back to you.

What's going on?

OK. Thanks, Nadia.

Yes, you can radio in the next messages.

OK, it's fine. We're live.

He's been seen on the ring road,
near the Clichy exit.

We're gonna fuckin' get him!

OK. Laure to all.

Let me remind you that Ronaldo kidnapped
a 21-year-old girl, Victoria Carel.

Dark long hair, brown eyes.

He may be driving a white van
with a locksmith's logo.

Relay activated
near the Saint Ouen exit.

Copy, Nana.

Fuck, it's busy.

Get a move on, shit!

Go, go, go!

We're moving!

Low battery

Nadia to everyone, I lost the signal.
I repeat, I lost the signal.

What? How?

The transmitter died
at the Clignancourt exit.

I can't fucking believe it. We had him!

He probably switched this phone off.

- I don't know... I'm sorry.
- For fuck's sake!

Don't move! Don't move!

Don't move!

OK. Laure to everyone.
We search the area.

We're looking for a white van
with a key on the side.

What makes you think
that Ronaldo is here?

He switched off his mobile.
He could be anywhere.

No, I have a feeling.

It's sinister, deserted.
There's no one about.

Exactly the type of place
that Ronaldo loves.

I feel it. He isn't far.

Fuck! Stop it, it's an industrial area,
there are vans everywhere.

There!
- Get closer! Get closer!

Fuck, there's no key on it.

Laure to everyone,
can you switch off the sirens?

Wait, wait, Gilou. Stop!

Look what you did to me!

Fuck!

Open this door, you piece of shit!

Ronaldo, we know you're in there!
Open the door!

Open this door, you piece of shit!

Are you OK?

She's breathing!

Look...

Hurry up!

The girl is alive.

I couldn't do otherwise.

Was he holding a gun?

I couldn't do otherwise.

What happened?

Ronaldo pulled his gun.
The Captain fired.

It was him or us.

Is that also your story, Superintendent?

Pretty much, yes.

Captain, excuse me.
I need to ask you for your gun.

We'll question you now,
so it will be over with.

Come with me to IGS.

I'll wait for you in the car.

Can I see you for two minutes?

You didn't do anything crazy?

I must warn you. They'll be on our back.
You'd better get your story straight.

There's no need, boss.

Justice was invented
replace revenge, Berthaud.

I couldn't wait. It was overwhelming...

Don't tell that to IGS.

We all do things under pressure.

By the way, I'm not leaving the team.

And I agree with Tintin about IGS.
