No, my wife me until tomorrow expected.

Do you know where I can get laid Abbesses file?

The young judge asks for it.

It can wait until Monday.

Everyone is going home for the holidays.

We get a white Christmas this year.

I take this opportunity to clear up some.

So late? It's almost 20:00.

Have you seen my desk? Soon I could no longer sit.

I'll help you some.

No no. You can not wait to go home.

I'll be alone.

Are you sure? -If They leave me alone.

Well then.

But you know that crime knows no rest days.

I forgot. I take tomorrow 's day.

I wish you therefore already show a merry Christmas, boss.

That's very nice of you. Tobacco? -Dried fruits.

Beautiful. I test them later.

Okay. Then I'll go.

Good. Home. Thank you, boss.

Happy Holidays.

No, Inspector Maigret.

To this hour no one here.

What you say?

North Station?

That is the district commissioner Verdier.

Good.

Listen up...

Yes I'm coming.

HOTEL STAR NORTH

Inspector Maigret.

That's fast.

The district commissioner there? -They're Him go home collection.

And the doctor? -which Has just gone upstairs.

There is no one went outside? -No. Would I have seen.

Good. Where's the body? -In Aveyron.

Aveyron?

We give the room the name of the department ...

... Corresponding to the number. Most guests are travelers, so ...

That is Room 12.

Right. First floor left.

Where are you going? -To My train.

Go back to your room.

Nobody leaves without my permission.

Well even better.

Will it take long? -I do not know yet.

Are you Commissioner Verdier? No, Maigret.

Day, doctor. -Commissioner.

I'm Ludovic Larrieu, the hotelier.

This is the first time in five years that I am here.

It's a quiet hotel, with one neat clientele.

Death ... -Almost immediately.

He has yet to towed here for help.

It happened around 5:20 pm.

I know because my alarm goes off at 5:30 pm.

Most of our guests take the train, sometimes very early.

I heard doors ...

Doors?

That's what I thought. I do not remember exactly.

But I heard thumping ... -Voetstappen?

Yes of course.

In the hallway or on the stairs?

Hard to say.

Try to remember you.

Footsteps sounded in the hallway different footsteps on the stairs.

Maybe both. I heard one scream ...

A bloodcurdling scream. What shouted the wretch.

Go back to your room, sir. -I Have got goosebumps.

Continue.

I stood up, my door opened ... Where is your room?

At the end of the corridor.

It's just one broom closet, not rent.

May I'm seeing here?

As you wish. But I could not clean yet.

You will find this messy? You should see my desk.

I exaggerate, but as a boss you must lead by example.

The example?

The example.

Where had you gone?

You ran into the hallway and ... -And nothing.

This man was bleeding to death here. Terrible.

It must have gone very quickly. Yes, lattice.

What kind of knife was it? -A Large blade.

Two stabbing, forcibly. By a man, I would say.

Bye.

Georges Bompard.

Rue Miromesnil, 17.

Not someone who came here often? No, it was not a permanent guest.

Is that all he had on him?

I hope he has entertained ...

... Before he was stabbed.

You were right, Bastien. Crime does not rest.

Do you want to come here?

Hotel L'Etoile du Nord.

Next to the station.

North Station.

Yes, so.

These are the guest chips, Commissioner.

Is Mr Bompard just arrived?

Did you feel that he expected visit?

There is no one arrived after him.

How does he get?

At about 3:30 pm.

Who sleeps there here? -I.

You lie there like it?

That's all right.

How did you get such a beautiful plant in a protected room with no light?

I have green fingers.

And I put it occasionally outside. -That Will'm doing good.

In each case.

Our man was not expecting, but maybe he was expecting someone.

Almost all the guests are women. That's a coincidence.

I hate to get up at night. -As Always the last, Verdier.

You know the fable of the hare and the tortoise, right?

The idea to kill each other just before Christmas.

Day Maigret, Values. -Edelachtbare.

we have the weapon? -Not yet.

Merry Christmas indeed. -You too. Beautiful gift.

I did not expect you here. -Commissaris Maigret never sleeps.

Make no mistake, I do often like.

Like you are sleeping? -Alsof I work.

Rest tomorrow, then everyone is on holiday.

Where did it happen? -In Aveyron. Room 12.

It takes a long time, Commissioner? I have this afternoon in Brussels.

I can not do anything, sir. Go back inside.

What about the boss?

I have a hate a murder in one hotel.

Do you show a preference for one department?

Madame Denise brands?

Yes, Mr. Commissioner. What do you want from me?

Do not worry.

I just have a couple questions for you.

I'm all upset.

A murder.

I thought this was one neat hotel. If I had known ...

It can happen anywhere, though.

There are many homes where the cupboards full of bodies down.

How old are you?

Excuse me. I always ask that.

I'm 42.

Almost.

And I'm a widow.

Do you work?

I have an antique shop in Compiegne.

Why are you in Paris?

I'll look up my sister. She is head nurse in Lariboisière.

I come once a month and then I stay here forever.

The hospital is nearby.

Tonight we celebrate Christmas together. Then she is not working.

Have you heard anything suspicious last night?

For the murder, I mean.

I do not suspect.

I do not listen to what others do.

But it was unpleasant.

What do you mean?

I had the impression ...

In such a small hotel the walls are very thin.

I had the impression that he was not alone and that he ... or rather, they ...

Then I'm still asleep.

I was awakened by the screams.

Woman?

Commissioner...

Pardon.

Do you wear stockings? -Pardon?

I mean: What material are your panties?

Of wool. I endure unfortunately nothing else.

Today is your better wool than silk.

Look at my legs?

Why not?

You do not wear socks, even though it's winter.

That 's crime? I never wear panties.

You hold us here not to look out of your eyes.

Does it take long?

Do not have a suitcase? -No.

Travelling packed very light, so to see.

You'll feel freer.

I work. -Me too. Police, open the door, please.

I'm coming.

I was not ready yet, Commissioner.

Inspector. Let me past it.

Pull something.

Lift up your skirt.

Are you crazy?

Would you please lift your skirt?

Pervert. I file a complaint against you.

I remind you that someone has been murdered. Hurry up.

Very well?

The only thing missing are stockings. -So what?

I dress the way I want.

May I? -Put Yourself at home.

Do you want to send one plumber?

I was just doing. I could not wash myself yet.

Horrible. I call myself one plumber. Bastien.

Yes Boss? -Get's A wrench.

You had to say at the counter. -Before You know it you have water damage.

I go now. I have to catch my train.

You stay quiet here, you understand? -Let me go.

You're crazy. Help, I'm beaten.

Of course not.

The night porter had one in his office. What do you want it?

Unblock the sink here. I love Mademoiselle fixed, she scratches.

He clasps.

Come on.

I'm always with me.

This young man got a big knife in his pocket. As' a real troublemaker.

You have to command respect.

Ahead.

I'm a decent man. I have nothing to do with those people.

Quiet, sir. Do not make it worse.

He wanted to go off. Room 11.

I heard something. He refused to open.

Room 11?

But no one is in room 11.

That's strange.

We look at this later.

The celwagen there. -The Women separately.

And now for the car. Quickly what.

Send me the rest of the statements.

Okay. I do nothing more than to stir shit.

Bring Peretti informed. And go's at Bompard watching his house.

You might find something that interests us.

I see you on the desk.

Mr Peyrelongue ...

... You know that you should remain available to the police.

You may not leave Paris.

Where should I go?

Mr Larrieu...

... Given the circumstances, I must ask you to come along.

Peretti. -ja, Baas?

You talk with this gentleman.

Well, you come with me.

On u.

Sit down.

Why was not registered as a hotel guest?

I come often. I'm a regular guest. -How often?

I'm not sure. Two or three times a month.

One more reason. Why do you bother the police?

Excuse me, Commissioner. -Inspector.

I did not want to hinder the police. -Hoezo?

Inspector Bastien had threatened to bash in the door.

I was scared. I slept in the room next to the victim.

At such moments, you are the wise.

Well done.

I like that better.

U bent Marc-Antoine Lehaleux
en u bent 52.

That's right.

You live in the Rue des Petites Ecuries number 15 in Paris.

Sit down.

How is it that you do not have identity papers?

never had. I know who I am, that's enough.

You called Céline Germain. -That Is there, right?

U woont in Rue des Saules in Orleans.

How old are you?

Nineteen.

Well yes, but go ahead.

The smoke bothers me.

You have cigarettes in your handbag.

Not every smoke is the same. Those of you bother me.

May I ask why you two or three times a month ...

... Sleep in L'Etoile du Nord? You live 20 minutes on foot from there.

L'Etoile du Nord is a sentimental stop for me.

Why, Mr. Lehaleux?

I know Mr. Larrieu long.

Mr Larrieu?
-De hotelbaas.

Before he was hotel manager, we did one tour de chant.

Trad in general and theaters? -I.

Ludovic and Mario. Maybe you've heard of us?

No? We were one amazing duo, believe me.

Ludovic and Mario, the charm of Paris.

We had our shine time.

Here anyway.

Galavoorstellingen in de provincie, bals...

Our repertoire was melo-romantic.

We were not dressy charmers today.

But we went out of fashion. -You Quit.

Ludovic took over the hotel.

But we still regularly see each other to reminisce.

We listen to our records, look at photos ...

... Sometimes until the early hours. No more.

Do you have the night than with Mr. Larrieu spent?

Part of the evening only.

The hotel takes him fully occupied.

That's why I'm going to see him there.

What time did he leave you?

Around 00:00 pm, 00:30.

We were both tired. And Ludovic have to get up early.

And when he was gone? -Are I go to sleep right away.

I became only awakened by the noise in the hallway.

That's why I reacted as the police. -Any Heard anything?

You lay in the next room.

I am fortunate that I sleep like a block.

And on tour, I learned to sleep anywhere.

May I ask you still remain available.

Of course, Inspector.

Has all gone well? Yeah, you know. Do not worry.

Hoe lang al?
-Wat?

Tippelt you. Van Bel you what to?

Everything is me, especially what does not concern me.

How long would you keep me here?

As long as needed.

You do not scare me. I have done nothing wrong.

You can start feeling better right away. -That Depends on you.

You have no evidence against me.

You forgot it in the room of a man who was killed with two stab wounds.

Tell me now where you Georges Bompard have met.

On the street. -Which street?

In Montmartre.
-Tippelde u?

What of it?

What time was it? -I do not know.

If you went to the hotel with him? No, shortly before him.

I took one room. He wanted it so.

Commissioner.

I come from the Rue de Miromesnil. Bompard lived there ...

... But according to the concierge he was never in a hurry.

He was a traveling salesman and was often away.

Is that all? -It Was one weird guy.

I have a lot of photos found. -So. Art Photos?

Something like that. A true exhibition. Everywhere on the wall and all the drawers.

Is the portrait of Mademoiselle there?

He never asked me to pose.

Why: Never? You've just met him tonight.

No, not her picture was there.

I believe that Mademoiselle is what will freshen.

Especially her mind.

Take her to the toilets.

Walk with me.

I pull the meantime something after.

The mobile unit of Orleans, please.

Commissioner Maigret.

I want to just ask something of us ...

... But if you want, I do it through the official channels.

No, I wanted to ask you about a girl named Céline Germain.

You look different.

How did I prefer?

Police peeks immodest, but if you address them ...

... Are not shy schooljongens. -Quiet But.

Without makeup, you can go on self for one schoolgirl.

Will you go outside if I have to get permission to ask?

All right, since you ask so sweet.

I'll wait outside.

Jensen. Do you employ? Yeah, all right?

It's okay. But I hope we do not sit here until tonight.

Are you sure?

Not even in the suburbs?

I had my doubts.

Bye.

What did you say?

Yes, Merry Christmas.

Bye.

Your identity is Jean-Pierre Loisillon ...

... Geboren in Neuilly-sur-Marne op 13 februari 1925.

Is that right? -Yes that's right.

But you have you registered at the hotel under the name Jean Delaigle.

May I ask why? -It's An alias.

A pseudonym.

Delaigle's my stage name, if you like.

I want nothing, Mr. Loisillon.

Admit Delaigle better than Loisillon bullied.

Deserves well, what do you do?

I do not have the certainty of one official.

What do you do exactly?

It depends.

I am an occasional extra in a movie.

That is temporary. I want to be a screenwriter.

My stories show filmed.

But you have to start somewhere.

Beautiful ambition. You must have one vivid imagination.

Yes. I only have to look at your criminal record.

Twice arrested for theft. -Zakkenrollen.

Is there's a difference? -Absolutely.

Steal is vulgar, pickpocketing's an art.

It's a vocation, I guess. Like walking around with a gun.

Because you a knife with you, you're not a criminal yet.

Such a large knife you do not have to peel one orange.

If the police have to protect ...

While you steal wallets? -I Have never threatened anyone.

What were you doing at L'Etoile du Nord? -What A question.

Everyone wants a roof over his head when he sleeps.

Was it your first night?

The first and the last, I guarantee you.

What are you doing? -I do not know yet.

Are you alone? Come here. -I do not want to disturb.

Pretty girl.

Handsome rotmeid.

Did you know the victim?

I had never seen him.

Why? Because I had a knife at me?

How do you know that Mr. Bompard is killed with a knife?

I heard that. The people were talking in the hallway.

You still had room 26? -The Drôme, yes.

So you slept one floor up and came down to look.

You were curious. Maybe you are looking for inspiration.

I know where you are driving on. Since I do not garden.

I was sleeping peacefully.

Suddenly I heard noise, doors slammed ...

And I got up.

But I did not see anything. Everything was over.

You are not entered the room to pick up his wallet?

Between two films you need somewhere to live.

Where does this money come from? -That's mine.

Two days ago I help solve the halls. Just ask after.

Rest assured that we do.

Awaiting you may figure in a cell.

This time not so temporary. That's abuse of power.

So what?

If it is, I do not want to be alone.

I also feel suspicious things.

We listen. -Why not?

I saw something.

There was someone in the hallway of the first floor.

As?

De hotelbaas.

He was first on the scene. He told us.

He came out of the broom closet in the hallway.

Not out of a broom closet, out of a room.

Chamber 11, to be exact.

The room next to Bompard. -which Mario.

There you are.

Problem. Céline Germain tried to flee.

And I get my knife back now, I told you what I know?

It was a present.

Do not worry, it's in good hands. In the lab.

I'll leave you alone to think.

Take care of her.

We go Larrieu & Co. interrogations.

And call with Verdier to hear if there's news from the Herault.

Okay.

By Aude. 1 PM the Aude.

The duo. On.

Orderliness has its limits.

In one emergency situation as you were in, it comes to no one ...

... To make his bed before he gets dressed.

That detail is me all cross from the start.

You have not slept in your broom closet, Mr. Larrieu.

Answer.

Mr. Loisillon saw you come out of room 11.

As I have already explained to your colleague ...

... Get Mr. Larrieu and I met a few times a month ...

... To retrieve memories of the vaudeville. Right, Ludovic?

Then we lose sight of the time.

Ludovic's a big part of the night remains in my room.

Just now you said that he had left about midnight ...

... Because you were tired.

And you told me that you just woke up when you heard all that noise.

I think it's best that you reminisces all night ...

... But why lie about it?

Nou ...

The murder was committed and when Mario was sleeping in the next room.

You were afraid you'd be immediately suspicious.

That's how it is.

You look at pictures and listening to records.

Yes, we have included two. -Gisteravond Too?

Yes. And we browsed in one album of a tour.

On one of the pictures is Ludovic next Fernandel.

That was a liefdadigheidsgala in Rodez.

I can show it to you.

My wife really likes Fernandel.

We will look into the room if we find the record and album.

I called Verdier.

He searched the room and found something bizarre.

A record player and photo albums.

A toothbrush and one dressing gown under the mattress.

That's less romantic.

Mr Larrieu...

Why do you hide that you've got a relationship with that gentleman?

It's a neat hotel. I wanted to avoid gossip.

L'Etoile du Nord has an impeccable reputation.

That broom is to the staff to deceive?

Always lead by example.

We have been very careful.

When we were on tour already.

You know, during the war, people like us ...

I know.

Where is the guard?

It is such a treasure. He cites one glass of water for me.

Leave us. -Are you sure?

Yes. And the guard should be on the report.

For what reason? -The Leaving his post.

Satisfied? -Quite.

You are all clearing it. -It Was one mess.

We are not done with each other yet.

Yet no one is waiting for me at Christmas.

I'm tired. I want to sleep. -Still Not immediately.

We start again.

I said that I know nothing. -Staying here.

Will you insist that you are Céline Germain, a prostitute?

Yes, and that?

And Bompard has brought you to the hotel?

We first go dancing in one nightclub.

And once in the hotel ...

I went to his room.

We went to bed ...

Would you like to hear the details? No, I already heard.

Of one neighbor. And then someone came in?

Then I went back to my room. -In Your nightgown?

Half-dressed. But I forgot a sock under the bed.

I'm tired.

And when you were in your room?

What do you do at that time other than sleep?

I ask you. -And I tell you that I slept.

I woke footsteps and doors that opened and closed.

When I heard what had happened, I knew I would suffer.

Me to lap inside of my sleeve and I stuffed the other into the drain.

Bompard How much do you get paid? He had you picked up, it's normal.

What he paid me? 1000 francs. Interested?

No, that is in your bag. And your other customers so generous?

That depends on the customer.

You think I'm crazy? Do you know what your risk?

You know what the penalty is at flight or one false witness?

Net m'n vader.

Your father you may learn a thing or two. Come on.

Let that girl alone. Are we at the Gestapo?

Mme Lassa.

Come on. Do as the others.

Shoot one bit.

Do you still maintain that you are offering your services on the street?

Mr Lacarrierre.

Inspector Bastien. Sit down, Mr. Lacarrierre.

Lacarrierre one C and two Rs.

Okay.

Thank you for coming so quickly. -That's Normal.

When I heard the sad news, I was shocked.

Poor George. -Yes I understand.

So you were the boss of Georges Bompard.

Music Label Melodia, boulevard Malesherbes.

Georges was one of our representative.

He was after all one excellent seller.

What do you mean after all?

He was a strange bird.

Nothing serious, mind you, do not misunderstand me.

No no. We are trying to find out about him only as much as possible.

Inspector Maigret. Sit down. Continue.

Georges tribute likes in mystery.

Mystery?

It was important that he did his job well.

But he did like weighty.

He did sometimes notice that he belonged to one famous family ...

... And he dressed with great care.

In other words?

I think he wanted to go for one artist.

And he had his tics, such as constantly changing route.

Mr. Bompard was fixed on the go because of his work.

He was constantly on the road. Many travel did not deter him.

Sometimes Lille, then Metz, the Côte d'Azur as well.

And the Southwest. That was his field, as it were.

He had only recently show a lot of little musical scores ...

... And mainly sold new records.

Can this wandering existence, his profession as a salesman ...

... Brought him not important enough to lead a double life?

I do not think so.

Come on. meet people, take one another identity.

You said he would like for someone else continued.

He never said anything about me there.

If you know something, you can say it better right away.

Of course, Commissioner.

I only know that he'd traveled.

Even when he was married.

He has been married? Yeah sure.

She continued to live in their apartment on the Square du Croisic.

I called her this morning.

What is the number?

Nummer 17.

In?

No criminal record. She never had to deal with the police.

Any news of Verdier?

He searches the hotel from top to bottom, but no weapon.

They even broke the toilet.

So we do not shoot up. -What now?

Would you first get coffee for us? We've added. And a croissant.

Does it take long? I shoot all root.

I'm not finished with you, Mr. Loisillon.

I am interested very artists.

Let us only.

Proud of yourself?

Let it be a lesson to you.

May I? -Go ahead.

Do you like croissants?

Do you have enough coffee?

Now let's talk quietly.

If I'm mistaken, you may say.

Bompard was killed with two stab wounds.

I do not think one young woman like you would have used a knife.

If you know him wanted to kill you had bought a gun.

Do you think women are weak creatures?

No, but I see that you have gone off in a panic.

You forgot one stocking at the foot end.

If you had quietly left the room, you had included all ...

... Like the sensible woman that you are.

Bompard is inserted into the back.

There are two possible hypotheses.

Either he was with you and he was surprised ...

... Either he knew the perpetrator and he harbored no suspicions.

But I know you did not kill Bompard.

So you want now might help me a little?

You were there. You saw what happened.

You have since this morning at a stretch lied. Why?

You're obviously not a prostitute.

Bompard could be your father.

Maybe you have one other young lover.

And when you saw looking man in a hotel 's rich ...

... He wanted revenge. Or rob him.

A young man like those in the corridor.

Interesting.

Mr Loisillon.

Alias Delaigle.

Do you know this young lady?

Hello.

Have they not treated too badly?

The police is not known for her good manners.

You may throw me in jail if she's my cellmate.

You know it's going to murder? -What's This?

You still love stories with one unexpected turn ...

... Mr. screenwriter?

Does she know?

Admit that there are astonishing similarities.

You're about the same age ...

... You both take one room for one night ...

... Lets you register under one fictitious name ...

... And you, Mr. Loisillon, you are at the crime scene ...

... With one big knife in your pocket which the murder weapon could be.

You need not be a filmmaker to adjust your questions there.

I told you already.

I came to see what was happening and I saw the hotel manager ...

... But it you run course.

Good.

Are you sure?

Yeah, I thought Thank you all..

Say nothing?

I do not know him.

Then I say goodbye to you, Mr. Loisillon.

You get back your freedom, and your knife.

That is no longer necessary for the investigation.

You can go.

Talk anyway, damn.

Just good friends.

And Merry Christmas.

Do you think you're out?

I would like to understand it.

With your help. -You Mean it.

Why confess you do not find what you confess anyway in a few hours?

Celine, you have every interest.

My name is not Céline.

I know that.

You know nothing.

You will not know, because I can tell you nothing.

I'm tired.

I just want to sleep.

Bastien...

This has just arrived. Photos that are found at Bompard.

Not a pretty sight.

He had like very young. It's shocking.

Would you take her to the identification service?

I want her picture in tomorrow's papers.

Maybe someone recognizes her.

I hope she has family.

The clothes should they come from a wealthy environment.

It is not a streetwalker. -No.

Gently. She sleeps.

They scratch anymore.

Nobody else could you enlist? I have free.

Sorry, there is no one else.

Are they all gone for Christmas? -Only You took the phone.

I did not sleep last night. Do not expect miracles.

We do not ask.

You look pale.

What's your name? -Zul tell you not go?

I just wanted to ease some of the tension.

From the front and from the side?

Wait a second.

And face. Not move.

Smart, though.

Where did you popped her? She's nice.

Do you make photos of. -At your service.

Now a profile.

Quiet. We are not here for fun.

Not move.

Boss. Here are the statements recorded Verdier.

Has he heard any guests?

I think they will teach us nothing, unfortunately.

Nobody knew the victim or had a reason to harm him.

Look, Larrieu, the hotel manager, is from Toulouse.

The pink city?

And the night porter was Moissac.

Therefore Larrieu adopted him.

What do you think, boss?

Everything rests on their statements.

They both say that no one has left the hotel.

Lying ze?

Maybe they knew Bompard in the past.

A settlement?

In the time that a tour Larrieu had the chant ...

... He may have had to deal with Bompard.

It is far-fetched, but we've seen stranger things.

When Bompard arrived only was the night porter.

If he had recognized him ...

... A settlement would have happened then. Around 3:30 pm.

Probably, yes.

But the night porter was the only one who saw coming Bompard ...

... And only he could have seen leave the abuser.

Ask Verdier to send me the door.

I want to take his statement with him.

Madam says Commissioner expecting her.

I just wanted to go on holiday when I received your call ...

... And I'd rather not wait too long. -One Moment, ma'am ...

Salavin. Irène Salavin. The ex-wife of Bompard.

I'm sorry that I withdrawal.

May I ask where you're going? -Chamonix.

I'm not mad at family gatherings, so I'm going to breathe some fresh air.

You do not seem very upset by the death of your husband.

You will not need to postpone your vacation?

What can I say? I was no longer part of his life.

What can I just got mean to him he dead?

You can not really do much for him.

But we can help you by answering a few questions.

I listen.

Salavin is your maiden name? -Yes.

I'm remarried. Once was enough.

How long have you been divorced?

Six years next month.

We had no direct contact.

You were very hostile to him?

You can ask me as well why I married him.

I ask you.

The young woman I was then, is far removed from the woman who is talking to you.

Georges was charming. A flatterer.

It was as if he had the world in one box.

For a girl from the province he was a fairytale prince.

I married him against the wishes of my family.

How long have you been married? -Ten years.

I loved him.

I want to see long-nothing decade.

Georges came but occasionally at home, but I did not complain.

You're talking about his work?

Yes of course. His work.

Georges was handelsreiziger...

... As others sailor: in each port 's sweetheart.

It took a long time to realize that.

I had to be pushed with my nose.

Eventually he was even more cautious.

How did you discover that he cheated on you?

At one time I wanted to surprise him. I went to see him.

He was not alone.

A very young woman? -Yes.

Where were you last night?

Last night? Pelléas et Mélisande at the Opéra Garnier, with friends.

Kent in opera?

I especially know blackmailers.

You think I'm very superficial, considering it happened.

I did not know him really.

I loved a dream image. In all its mystery ...

... He has lost himself.

And always dealing with much younger women is also dangerous.

It's crazy, but ... I was not surprised when I heard it.

Do you think someone has avenged?

You know what they say.

Who handles the sword ...

I'm going to eat. Do you think there's a good included?

I can only say that she insists. But how?

Development there a couple for lunch, the morning papers.

Goodbye, Commissioner.

And, they behaved?

I would be surprised if anyone recognizes her in those photos.

I leave her behind with you.

And, Inspector Maigret, shoot the investigation?

Got me still nothing to say?

I'm not going to do your job.

I hope you're here at home what begins to feel.

It's not my style.

Get used to it, because the room we have for you is even more beautiful ...

... Than those in the hotel. That's blackmail.

You do not get it. I'm trying to save you, stupid child.

If you go out there, you come into the hands of the prosecutor.

What does that change? -everything.

Did you see me write something? No.

You also see no pv me writing this examination.

Gives you out of pure goodness of my photographs to the newspapers?

That would not have if you said who you are.

You shoot nothing on it. My parents are dead.

Yes of course. I know that you're not the person for whom you spend.

Your clothes, your knowledge, your behavior ...

Everything points to one bourgeois origin, whether you like it or not.

I know you do not come from Orléans.

I also know that somewhere my father is sad ...

... Because he can not hear his daughter. -So what? I despise him.

Finally.

I will say what happened.

Bompard has seduced you, your parents were against it ...

... You ran away and traveled after him to Paris.

You should write novels. -The Escapes me alone ...

... How could you fall in love with one salesman.

It...

A salesman still to show a whole lot older than you.

Not just one salesman.

He did for a living, but it was one great composer.

He played the piano.

How do you say?

I do not know. Let the electrician.

No, I have not slept.

Listen, I'll be there as soon as I can.

See you soon.

Your wife?

We spend Christmas Eve together in the countryside through.

I loved him.

How did you meet him?

I'm a musician.

He had promised to compose for me.

Did you know he was married?

The woman I saw just now?

I knew it. It is exactly as I imagined it.

Why? -Hoogmoedig, Heartless.

He told me about her. She made him unhappy, I think.

Bompard also got a few women made unhappy.

Did that serpent told you that?

I know it was a gentle man. Excited.

He was her regularly unfaithful.

With me he could start a new life.

Who has prevented him?

I can not say.

Who killed him?

Not you.

So who are you protecting?

My name is Geneviève.

Boss? The night porter was there.

What is it?

Nothing.

So.

Give Mlle Geneviève something to eat. They perish from hunger.

She called Geneviève? -Yes. If she wants to.

I'm sorry that I've had away from your desk ...

... But I have a couple of details with you brighten.

I've told you everything I know. -Have a seat.

Does it take long? There is no one to replace me.

You are very dutiful, I know.

Sit down.

Therefore, I am sure you miss nothing.

Let's see...

U heet Joseph Peyrelongue u bent geboren in Moissac.

A nice little town, Moissac.

We all come from somewhere.

Does your boss does not Moissac? No, that comes from the big city.

Did you ever Ludovic and Mario seen in the charm of Paris?

Yes, they have also been in Moissac.

But the charm of Paris, if not hit with us.

Therefore, the boss has become a hotelier.

But I met him after the war, when I was looking for work in Paris.

I saw the advert, I have responded ...

... And because I came from the same region ...

Solidarity.

Indeed, solidarity. We help each other out of the province.

And Parisians not?

I want to tell anyone anything wrong.

Let's go back to your statement.

You said you cry heard on the first floor ...

... And footsteps on the stairs.

I did not go upstairs.

you called the police on behalf of your boss ...

... And you also have a cop called that ran along.

Which has taken hold of the hotel. Is that right?

Yes that is correct.

You also said that no one at night has the hotel entered or left ...

... Except Bompard and the young lady who called himself Céline Germain.

You all confirm? -Yes.

Do you realize what that means, Mr. Peyrelongue?

And.

Of... nee.

That means the killer was already in the hotel.

Well, we have prepared a list and questioned everyone.

I do not know what you are driving at.

Do you think I killed him?

You've got a vivid imagination.

I imagine nothing, I reason.

Only you see entering the victim.

That's ridiculous. I never come into the room, that's not my job.

What happens above, is nothing to me. What would I do there?

I subscribe, enter the key and that was that.

You give the key.

And, baas?

Has already questioned the hotel staff? -Yes. There are only two girls.

Is that all? -Yes.

It's not the Ritz.

They heard nothing.

They are the last to come down.

Have you their names? -On My desk.

Yesterday. Bertha Martineau, 19 jaar.

Out? -Senlis.

In andere? -Lucienne Florac, 52 jaar ...

Uit Moissac.

Moissac they help each other.

Music Label Melodia, boulevard Malesherbes.

Where Bompard was his last trip to?

The Southwest?

Yes, you were talking about small scores and records to.

Do you know if he has been in Moissac?

He has sold a lot? Much better.

Thank you and goodbye.

Jump in a car and go pick Lucienne Florac.

Ask Verdier to search her room.

And also that of the night porter.

What are you Mme Florac? She's my sister.

Why did not you?

You did not ask. You are not too interested.

Family Histories interest me a lot today.

Since when she has been working in the hotel?

You helped her to that job?

Yes. -FROM Solidarity.

Lucienne's a good woman.

I do not hear a bad word about her.

It commands respect as you stick so good in your accidentally as she.

Undoubtedly, Mr. Peyrelongue.

Tell me...

... What kind of accident? -The Poor sheep.

She first her husband and then lost her daughter.

Is she therefore left out Moissac and come to Paris?

She was alone. She had to earn a living.

That's why she came to work at the hotel.

You never hear her complain.

I understand.

Something like that is terrible for a mother.

How old was her daughter? -Seventeen.

Like the girl you last night registered.

Yes, Rosine had the same age as Mlle Blanchon.

The daughter of Judge Blanchon?

Boss? I have good news and bad news. Which I start?

The good thing is that we found the knife at the door.

It was well hidden in the flower pot.

Yes, we bring it along.

The bad news is, Lucienne Florac is off.

She said she went shopping.

She was not suspicious.

Let 's go APB.

With luck, she can pick her in the Austerlitz station.

Come all but back to the office. Until so.

What do you want from Lucienne? Does she not care enough?

Have you hidden the knife in the plant to help her from one care?

Or has anyone else done this?

I am not a gardener, but I think he does not grow better there.

But daylight helps.

I am sure that the plant does not belong in your room.

Am I mistaken?

Geneviève Blanchon.

Sorry. -Not Really, Mr. Peyrelongue.

I suggest you not to each other.

Did you meet Bompard in Moissac? -What Do you think?

He has brought you to Paris?

I ask you one time.

He has brought you to Paris?

No, I came myself. I wanted to surprise him.

He promised that he would write me.

I waited and waited, but nothing came.

When did you leave out Moissac?

Yesterday morning.

I left without anyone saying anything.

He gave you his address?

I knew that he often came to show a cafe on the Boulevard St Germain.

He was happy to see you?

I do not know.

I think so.

He said he had a lot of work and that he therefore could not write.

And then? -We Spoke at the evening off.

He said he was a few days had no more obligations.

he said what obligations? -Georges Did like mysterious.

That was romantic.

Then he would devote to me.

He'd be a sonata writing for me. And we would celebrate Christmas together.

he gave you money when he left? -He Would at some bring the evening.

That famous 1000 francs? -To Pay the hotel.

What did you do the rest of the day?

You had not a penny.

I walked around in Paris.

I found everything wonderful.

I saw him everywhere.

Late at night I saw in the cafe again.

And finally, you went to L'Etoile du Nord.

You looked solid surprised when you saw a young girl from Moissac ...

... All alone, and then the daughter of Judge Blanchon, a dignitary.

Moissac is not so small. You do not know anyone.

You recognized her.

Do not tell me you did not know her.

Say nothing.

Genevieve was a girlfriend of my daughter Rosine.

Ms has five minutes ago reported itself.

Mrs. Florac ...

Have a seat.

Look at that ... The whole family is together.

Mme Florac, what happened to your daughter Rosine?

She died after one surgery she had to do because she was pregnant.

In Moissac?

In Moissac, three years ago.

Mr. Bompard was then in the region?

It was his job.

Rosine Then he went on to say that she was pregnant ...

... He took her to one midwife.

Then one day I heard that Bompard dealt with Genevieve.

When was that?

A few weeks ago. I was shocked when I heard it.

Geneviève, you knew Rosine had been the lover of Bompard?

And that he had arranged for an abortion?

And yet you came to him.

I loved him.

He said Rosine had other lovers.

That he was not the father.

I believed him.

Mme Florac, can you tell me what happened last night?

I often imagined that the man fell into my hands.

It was a sign of destiny.

Tell Joseph.

We have done what needed.

Rosine rust in vrede.

It was very late when Mlle arrived Blanchon.

I expected no more.

Good evening, Mademoiselle.

I recognized her right away. I had not seen her in years ...

... And in the meantime she had become one young woman.

And she had no reason to remember me.

She did not seem at ease.

Room 20. Second floor.

I gave her a room.

How did you react when Bompard appeared a few minutes later?

I could not believe it at first.

Brought to you in relation to the two guys together?

Yes. I gave him a room on one another floor to keep them apart.

But there was no doubt about his intentions.

Room 12, second floor left.

And you did tell your sister.

Not immediately. I have a while hesitated.

Uit angst Om alles weer op te rakelen.

Did you realize at that time that it could only end tragically?

Listen, I know what sadness my sister had for three years.

I could see the presence ...

... The murderer of her daughter not for her concealment.

She could meet him in the hallway or as she cleaned his room.

What has happened then?

Joseph has only done his duty.

He came to my room and brought me up to date.

I hesitated for a second.

The knife was my husband and I had it with me always.

With us in the region every family has one. It's a traditional knife.

Paul would have been proud that I cleaned the honor of our daughter ...

... As he would have done himself.

I waited a long time, hoping that he would be alone.

But I could not risk that Mr. Larrieu woke up ...

... And I could no longer control me.

I hid the knife while Lucienne went back upstairs.

Geneviève, you've had time to recognize Mme Florac?

When she walked in, I understood immediately.

It happened so fast.

Poor baby.

When I entered the room and saw you in the arms of that monster ...

... I actually thought my Rosine was alive ...

... And that I could prevent anything yet.

You're so like her.

So I proffered, with all his might.

You must have been so scared.

Do you understand?

He had to pay.

It's not your fault.

It's over now.

The jury's here knowing they will be acquitted.

Rather, it is one psychiatric case. -And he?

He will be convicted of complicity.

Why did you lie?

I could not identify the mother of Rosine.

And I did not want my father would know.

If you come here, boss?

A glass for Christmas? -Good idea.

We have earned.

Cheers.

Sorry for the glasses. It is rough it.

Merry Christmas, boss.

What is it?

Oh no.

Let me's guess. Raisins.

Nee, baas. Tabak.

Tobacco? What a good idea.

Hold it a minute?

The case L'Etoile du Nord is around.

Mme Florac was very clear.

She purified the memory of her daughter ...

... With the help of the night porter, who was her brother.

The victim was in the company of a prostitute ...

... A certain Céline Germain.

That's the name on the hotel sheet.

Police are looking for her, but she will give it to me ...

... Because the Declaration of Céline Germain ...

... Is no longer necessary for the examination.

So. And now...

... You must excuse me. I still have a lot of work.

And, baas?

Would you take her to a cab? Maybe she can still catch her train.

And do not forget the pictures not to cancel the newspapers.

Now go quickly.

It keeps snowing, boss.

I need to train. This I do not want to miss.

Should not be cleaned up? -Cleaned?

What then?
