[DOORBELL]

[NOTIFICATION]

(cell phone) I know you're home.

I just wanted to say hello. If you change your mind, I'll stay in Trani until tonight.

No.

I eat yogurt.

[NOTIFICATION]

(cell phone) You better come out of the den.

A tow truck is taking your car away.

But damn...

[WHISTLE]

Good morning, Coen. Thanks, huh?

You're welcome. Coming to pick you up is my life's purpose.

- Tease, tease. You were a ragtag bunch and you remain a ragtag bunch. - You'd like that.

- What happened? - For now we only know that the bones are human.

- Castellana and Palmieri are there. - Let's hope they don't stab each other.

Calandrini wanted to come, but when he discovered that it was in the Murgia area

he thought it was the usual megalithic tomb and gave up.

-The boss would never have sent it, right? -No. Since we broke up

he does everything to make us alone. - He does it for you, he knows you're suffering.

- You suffer, Coen. - Ah, what pain!

Prehistory has nothing to do with it.

The burial dates back to ten, fifteen years ago at most.

From the shape of the pelvis I'm almost certain it's a male.

Age ?

The eruption of teeth is that of a child, between 8 and 10 years old.

To be sure, I have to wait for the DNA.

- Elements to identify it? - We only found this.

A plate with OVD written on it.

- Can I take a picture of you? - No. I'll do it.

I became invisible.

- It could be... - Anyone.

- There's no point in making assumptions now. - We work with assumptions, Esposito.

Overshoes!

I think there's some "turmoil" between those two too.

"Even" compared to whom?

There is no storm between us, there is the ocean between us.

This heaviness, leaving you I lost this. Tell Marinetti.

What do you want? They threw a child into that hole the day before yesterday.

- Should I start whistling? - Do you think it doesn't concern me?

We are cops. Or we put a filter...

I don't have filters! I don't want to put them on.

But that's not the point.

You think I have a problem to solve.

You have a problem, just look at your face and you'll understand it.

Were you afraid of contagion?

Yes. Yes, because your sadness sticks to me!

It's not your problem, leave me alone.

Fuck you.

You always manage to make me feel like a bitch!

No clothes. Castellana did not comment on the cause of death.

We only have hypotheses about sex, age, burial period

and the photo of the medal.

[SQUEAK] Locascio!

Are you really doing it?

Sorry. I was... focused.

Well, there's only one thing we can do today .

Check missing person reports between 2009 and 2014.

No, let's show the tag. The dog who found it made a mess.

-We don't know if it belonged to the child or to the person he hid.... -I would wait.

Let's see how it goes with the reports. Do you check all the reports?

- Don't interrupt when people are talking. - You share... - Enough!

Today gastritis is giving me no peace, I miss you two!

You're right, let's wait.

Coen.

- What's wrong with Gerri? - It's the same old story and the investigations have only just begun.

You know him better than me, right?

- It's shocking. - In Italy, thirty minors disappear every day.

- What did you expect? - But there are also many foreigners.

Guys, I have to go or I'll put my hands on him.

There are many unaccompanied foreign minors

who flee to reach relatives, family members.

We can't talk anymore because he has a minority complex.

- Hey. - Hey! Look, marriage leave.

- What is it? - I'm getting married. - And with whom?

- Are you stupid? With Pierpaolo! - Of course.

- I would like you to be my witness. - Me, Annali'? - Eh.

- You and I are exhausted from sex, it's not the case. - Orgasms pass

the friendship remains. - Let's see what your future ex-husband thinks.

I'm sending you a picture of a tag. Here it is.

- Okay. - It was near the bones of a child, we don't know if it was his

or of whoever hid the body. - Are we looking for something similar?

Yes, especially on those awful sites where only you enter.

I want to spread it on the net, sites, blogs, forums

only with the words "Whoever recognizes it" and the number of the Third Section.

- All right. - Thanks. Best wishes, huh?

I would like to know who the idiot is who did this!

The switchboard is clogged with people who are delirious and offend us!

I have no idea. I don't understand.

You don't have to understand, you have to solve it immediately!

[REPEAT PHONE RINGING]

Come over there.

You never respect the decisions you make.

- Always do the opposite. - Missing person reports are useless.

- Investigations take time. - Why not shorten them?

- You could have given us your number. - We need to record the calls.

Oh, that's right, do you want to hear them again? Go to the switchboard.

A guy says that aliens put the tag on him

after they kidnapped him. - Maybe something good will come out of it.

Then hear with your own ears.

Why ?

Every call about the tag is diverted to your direct line.

- I can't always defend you. - I never asked him.

Have a good evening.

[PHONE RINGS]

[PHONE RINGS]

- Trani Police Headquarters. - I recognized you. - Who is speaking?

[INSULTS IN PUGLIESE] Fuck you.

[NOTIFICATION]

- Can I? - Oh. - Still no news on the medallion.

I came to bring you the participation.

Pierpaolo has now collected them from the printers.

Guys... happy birthday.

- Congratulations. - Well! Thank you.

While we're on our honeymoon, don't bust our balls.

- Oh well! - That would be nice. - Pierpa', at your disposal.

- Let's go. - Let's go. - We'll leave you free to do your own thing.

- Happy birthday, guys. - Yes, thank you. - Bye.

[PHONE RINGS]

Trani Police Headquarters.

You shouldn't have shown that medallion.

The feast of Proelio is near. If the fury of the angel awakens

there will be other sacrifices. - Who is speaking?

- Protect the children. - Yes, you must tell me your name.

Hello? [LINE BROKEN SIGNAL]

Rosai, this is Esposito. Identify the last call to my direct.

- The last one? - Yes.

[INTERCOM]

Who is ?

- Professor Anselmi? - Yes, but who are you?

Police.

(recording) "You shouldn't have shown that medallion."

"The feast of Proelio is near. If the fury of the angel awakens"

"there will be other sacrifices."

- I... I don't understand. - And I'll explain it to him.

We record all phone calls and also find blacked out numbers.

-I was just trying to make myself helpful. -Why an anonymous phone call?

I didn't want to get involved. You never feel safe with me.

- How did you know it was connected to a child? - You tell me now.

(recording) "Protect the children."

The medallion has nothing to do with it, I was talking about children for the engraving.

The letters are hand-engraved with an awl.

That's why we believed this mark was a scratch.

It actually belongs to the engraved letter, it's not an O, it's a Q.

What looks like a V is read as a U, as in ancient inscriptions.

Anselmi also writes it. It is not OVD, but QUD

the acronym for "Quis ut Deus", "Who is like God". It is the phrase...

This is the phrase that Saint Michael said to Lucifer before taking revenge.

- It's also written on his shield. - Exactly.

But what do you know about it? Huh?

What do you know? Unbelievers and goats!

With the holy cards I give you, make wedges to put under the tables

when they stagger, huh?

With all due respect, she saw that photo too.

Coen, you are my eyes. Do you know what that means?

That I can distract myself and you can't.

- Go ahead, what were you saying? - For Professor Anselmi

There is a version of the story where children were killed

and brought as a sacrifice to Saint Michael. - There, I understand.

Saint Michael who is also our patron saint

He killed children in his name? Go away, go away! This is madness.

Someone may have taken advantage of this and hurt the child.

-Maybe with a sword. -What the fuck are you laughing at? -I'm not laughing. -But it amuses you.

No, it doesn't amuse me, I'm just saying it's absurd. Calm down, okay?

Well done. Calandrini took the words right out of my mouth.

If we continue like this, we find ourselves in a Dan Brown book.

You don't even know who he is!

[CELL PHONE RINGING]

- Hello? - This is Doctor Santeramo, do you remember?

Of course I remember. Tell me, what can I do for you?

Save, if not my life, at least my liver and my reputation.

Damn it...

Hey. Did they steal your car?

I forgot that the tow truck took it away from me.

for street cleaning. - Get a service one.

No, I need cigarettes. I hide them in there

because maybe struggling to recover them, I stop smoking.

- You're pretty weird. - Yes.

I can give you one, in exchange I'll report back to you with the latest on the case.

Mhm? That way I avoid going in there.

- Are you afraid of meeting your ex-wife? - The truth?

I can't stand the hostility with which he looks at me.

- I don't understand how I earned it. - Ask him.

Hey, nice. Have you ever asked a woman something that she thinks

does it not need to be explained?

I have been accused of having contagious heaviness, serious stuff.

What did you discover?

Anselmi has a criminal record.

In 2006 he was arrested for trafficking in archaeological finds.

Then he moved to his sister's house in Avigliana, in Val di Susa.

- That doesn't make him a murderer. - A murderer, no, but a madman, yes.

On his website he only talks about the exterminating angel.

- Does he have a following? - No, there are more people who make fun of him.

I spoke with Castellana. The field is narrowing for missing children.

DNA analysis confirmed that it is a male, 8, 10 years old

blond hair, blue eyes, died between 2009 and 2014.

- Do we know how he died? - Yes. A stab to the throat.

Now you don't laugh anymore?

Blondes with blue eyes, between 8 and 10 years old

we have these three.

Alessandro Iachi, 9 years old, disappeared on March 18, 2013.

Giulio Spelea, 8 years old, disappeared on January 20, 2009.

Costantino Vasero, 8 years old, disappeared on August 3, 2011.

[CELL PHONE RINGING] Sorry. Hello?

Yes, I put it on speakerphone. It's Palmieri.

There was a thumbprint on the tag

but it belongs to an unidentified person . - Is it the child's?

No, it's too big. The DNA is only his, he was wearing the chain.

- That's all for now. - Thank you.

Excuse me, but why is there never any mention of that medallion in the complaints?

I've been wearing this since my First Communion.

If I had disappeared, my parents would have told right away.

Whoever put it there is the one who took it away.

Excuse me.

Boss.

Where is he going?

Playing the lone detective, as usual.

No ?

-Hello. -Here I am. I couldn't speak on the phone. How can I help you?

-Do you know about the discovery in the Murgia area? -Yes, Alfredo told me.

-And as always, I went off on a tangent. -He's worried about you.

- No, he doesn't trust me, it's different. - Mhm...

However, he served me as a personal consultant for religious matters.

I don't know if you've ever seen anything like this.

Have you heard of deviant sects linked to the cult of Saint Michael?

No, but unfortunately certain things exist.

-I can find out, if you want. -Maybe. Since you're taking me seriously...

- Yes, you would do me a great favor. - I guess this should stay between us.

You see, I would never ask you to lie to your husband.

- Thanks then. - About what?

- I'll let you know soon. - All right. Bye.

What did Gerri want from you?

Nicholas? Nicholas.

It's late, go home.

- Good morning, Antonie. - Good morning, Inspector.

- A glass of warm milk. - Right away.

I have something for you.

The minor brought it, the one who made me look stupid

you said she is a relative of yours.

I don't make anyone look stupid and Lavinia is an adult.

Okay, let's pretend I believe that.

Aren't you opening it?

Make me some milk, Antonie.

- Hello, Antonie. - Goodbye, Inspector. Thank you.

I... do the undifferentiated waste, tomorrow the paper will be thrown away.

"I wanted to give it to you in person. You don't have to bring it if you don't want to."

"It's just my way of telling you that I think about you often."

"and I like your real name."

[THUNDER]

[THUNDER]

Are you scared?

It's nothing.

It seems like the world is falling, but in the end the world never falls.

Your name is Goran, right?

Don Mimì told me.

He also told me that you are a gypsy.

My name is Tano and I will go far away.

With Goran... it's harder to rhyme.

Don't worry, they'll change your name here anyway.

Okay, let's sleep now.

[ENGINE START]

- Should I bring it back to you or should I come pick you up tonight? - Honey, whatever you want.

- Isn't that Giovanna? - Giovanna who?

D'Arco! Your ex-wife, who else?

It would seem so.

- Do you want to give her a little pat to make sure? - Please!

- Why did you call her? - I didn't call her, I swear!

- Learn to lie better. - I'm not lying!

Have her take you back or don't come back at all.

I keep the car. Bye!

- Doctor, what a pleasure! How are you? - Very well, are you? - Come.

- Who is that? - Doctor Giovanna Aquarica.

He heads the Minors Office of the Naples Police Headquarters.

After your show yesterday, the big boss preferred to call for reinforcements.

- You're so annoying to me. - I'll gladly reciprocate.

She is one of the leading experts on child disappearances.

They call her when the person conducting the investigation concludes nothing.

You say she stopped by to say hello? Oh, aside!

She was married to Marinetti.

Doctor.

- Here's your coffee. - Thank you. - Sorry, we don't have any sugar.

- Inside a police station everything is a bit bitter. - I prefer it bitter.

I know how you moved. Never rule out sects, madmen and black masses

especially when it comes to children, but we need to follow other paths.

- Like? - Each of those kids has a story.

If they hurt him, the reason must be sought there.

-Not much has emerged from the reports. -Let's say nothing, you could say.

Have you checked whether at the time of the children's disappearance

Was the parents' DNA acquired? - No, it was not done.

Of one of the three it would not have been possible. Can I?

Alexander.

He was adopted.

Good. Let's call them all together for tomorrow. Is that okay, Doctor?

It's his case.

Great. We take DNA samples from Giulio and Costantino's parents

and we check with Alessandro's parents about his medical history.

Do you know what it means to plunge those people into anguish?

I am perfectly aware of this.

Esposito, with the nothingness we have, is the only viable path.

- Those bones might not belong to any of the three. - Aaah...

What do you suggest we do? Let's move forward by force of inertia.

waiting for his professor's prophecy to come true? Hmm?

No, you do it.

Alright.

- You want to strangle me, tell the truth! - Easy.

- You could have warned me. - I thought Santeramo had told you.

You could have felt the same. Gerri will feel discouraged and will go into crisis.

I'll have to pick up the pieces.

You don't run a recovery center. He's a cop...

- Slowly, lower your voice. - He's not a teenager in crisis.

- I find him unbearable anyway. - He just has low self-esteem.

- But what low self-esteem! - Easy.

He's arrogant, like all those with victim syndrome.

Only he can understand the suffering of others. Come on!

Anyway...

I think you're wrong not to tell him what we've discovered about him.

What a discovery! A film in which you can see almost nothing.

Alfredo, you're hiding behind your fingers, aren't you? You know it very well.

I have no right to tell him things I don't even know if he wants to know.

What right do you have to keep the video? Have you asked yourself?

His mom is up there.

Do you want to go and console him? Go.

- I'll find you a decent office. - No, I'll stay with you. - Okay, I don't...

Are you keeping your distance from me because of your wife? I hope not.

I'm a qualified professional, your boss called me!

- If he doesn't understand, that's his problem. - You lean on him.

but I'm still looking for an office for you.

Are there any empty desks here? No.

Do you have 50 cents?

I discovered something that could shut everyone up.

- A child disappeared in Poggio Franco . - But when?

The parents reported the boy missing this morning.

He is 10 years old, his name is Niccolò Amoruso.

- He's blond with blue eyes. - Did you warn the others? - No.

-What do you do? -Block the summons of parents of missing children.

Do me a favor, ask Marinetti for three hours. If I do nothing

it's done as Aquarica says. Send me a photo of the baby on my cell phone.

I'm sorry if I'm hurt.

Me too. You're a bit of a dickhead.

Thank you.

> He left at a quarter past eight.

He often goes to school alone, he cares a lot about it

It makes him feel grown up and the school is two blocks away.

At 8.40 the teachers informed me that he hadn't arrived.

I didn't understand anything anymore, I went out and walked down the street

which Niccolò usually does to school... but I haven't found it.

Have you noticed any strange movements around the house these days?

-No. -No, nothing. -Not even the backpack was found.

No. It's red and green with a stuffed crocodile attached.

Okay, I won't bother you any further.

Try to stay calm as much as possible. We'll talk soon.

Thank you.

- I'll do my best to find your son. - Thank you.

This is the writing on the medallion and this is Niccolò's house.

The engraving connects the two cases. If I say this, do you agree with me?

Check if there are any relationships between Anselmi and Niccolò's family

or if he had any contact with him. -The news of his disappearance is circulating.

The important thing is that there is press silence on the rest.

Professor Anselmi doesn't convince me, let's keep an eye on him.

Locascio, you start, get organized.

- Who coordinates the searches? - The local police station.

I asked PM Crovace to pass the investigation on to us.

Does he have a PM all to himself?

We do what we can.

The dog units stop not far from Niccolò's house.

Whoever caught him first followed his movements.

- There will be a camera. - Coen, do some research.

Should I call the parents of the other children or not?

We have to name these bones. Of course we have to!

There is another disappearance, before making three families suffer needlessly

let's try to understand if something connects Niccolò to the other children.

Listen, Esposito, it's inevitable and what is inevitable

Sometimes it has side effects. Get over it!

- Oh... - That's fine for now . - That's fine!

Good morning.

No... Sorry, Alfredo, you always investigate like this in here.

dodging what is needed because it hurts?

Look here. Read when Alessandro disappeared.

Esposito ?

One of the three children, Alessandro, the adopted one

he passed away a few days before the Proelio festival, like Niccolò.

Then he listened to me.

No summons, except for Alessandro's parents.

I'm not good at apologizing, this is my way of doing it.

I spoke with Palmieri, someone returned to the place of the discovery

the perimeter tape has been torn. - It's the killer.

- He came back to find out what we know. - Probably.

According to soil analysis, the child was killed elsewhere.

- It's up to us to find out where. - Okay.

I have the car... over there.

Okay. So... have a good day.

Oh.

- Well? - Oh. - Any news? - Unfortunately, no.

Anselmi went out around 10.30pm, I followed him, but nothing.

-He went around Trani and came back home. -He didn't see you?

I don't think so. I don't understand why we didn't stop him.

- If he's involved, we need him out. Who replaced you? - Calandrini.

- Coen is on the hunt for cameras. - What is this face? - Nothing.

Today would have been Nina's birthday, I think about it.

- It's this. - Esposito, Alessandro's parents have arrived.

Nail.

No, it's not Alessandro's. We've never seen it.

And just the writing? It's not clear here, this is a U.

If you read WHAT, "Who as God".

Yes, we have a statuette of Saint Michael.

We bought it with Alessandro at the Sanctuary of San Michele Milite.

- How long before the baby disappeared? - Two weeks.

Fresh. Do you remember if anything special happened?

- Anything, if anyone approached Alessandro... - No.

- No. - It was a nice day, nothing happened.

One last thing. Have you ever seen this man?

No, don't.

The inability to rely on DNA makes everything more complicated.

- We understand how difficult it is... - We have been living in anguish for 10 years.

We need an answer, whatever it is.

We need an element that, like DNA, makes your child unique.

Something that concerns him from a physical point of view.

When we adopted him, his right wrist was in a cast.

for a bad fracture. - Yes.

- Hello? - How far along are you with the bone scan?

- I'm almost done. Why? - I need a quick answer.

Alexander...

- We can still save Niccolò. - What do you know?

We don't predict the future, that's why we always arrive too late.

We do not predict the future, but if a madman has a plan

we can interpret it.

If you believe in acting in the name of Saint Michael, until the feast of the Battle

nothing will happen to Niccolò.

We still have five days. That's a lot.

Help me...

- Good morning, Mrs. Marinetti. - Good morning. Hello, Gianmarco.

> Next.

- Sorry to interrupt. - Honey, no problem.

- Hi, Claudia. How are you? - Good, thanks. You? - Me too.

- I'm here for Gerri... if you can. - Sure. - I'm coming.

See, I'm right? The matter is not resolved.

I didn't even know he was married before her.

Do you see? If he did, he would talk about it.

How did you see them? Is there complicity?

- Does he stammer? - No. - Do I make you laugh? - No.

- I laugh because I'm not used to seeing her like this. - Me neither.

I only see two colleagues helping each other on the case.

Nothing more.

Okay. Then I didn't come to talk about Giovanna.

In fact, I found a person who can give you the information you are looking for.

- Her name is Angela, but everyone calls her "the midwife." - Midwife?

It seems absurd, but the friend who told me about it is very devout.

If it is a question of popular beliefs, of esotericism

No one better than her can help you. Try it, what does it cost you?

(phone) You have to be patient, it's not just you. You know how many people

Do they want to see Mrs. Angela? They would need 72-hour days.

- Stay there, I'll look at the agenda. - No... [WAITING MUSIC]

(phone) Is he still there? You should tell me what the reason for the visit is.

past, future, a loved one in difficulty? - We didn't understand each other.

- This is an investigation. - I'll write "investigation", then you can figure it out.

-The appointment is in a month. -We didn't understand each other... -Listen carefully.

I'm Giovanna Aquarica, a policewoman, like my colleague.

Either the lady receives us today or I come there with a search warrant.

While I'm at it, I'll bring my colleagues from finance. What do you say?

(phone) There's a spot available in two hours. - Good.

Experience.

- Good morning. - Good morning.

- What are you doing? - I'm looking at the videos from Niccolò's school camera.

When the children come in and out it's a mess.

- Anselmi? - Walk, walk, walk.

You think that sooner or later he'll do something stupid and instead, no, he'll go home.

Listen, but in your opinion Esposito... is he chasing Aquarica?

Sooner or later he takes her to bed.

- You're welcome! - Yes. - He can't stand her and she was married to Marinetti.

-I know... -You're about to make a sexist joke.

What a "two balls"...

Alright.

[IN NEAPOLITAN]

Yes, but which caves? There are dozens of them.

You're not saying anything?

You will not have been struck by his words.

These gypsies are all the same.

Sorry, I didn't mean to.

Don't worry, no problem. I see they informed you.

The truth is that I really have a hole in my head

only everything goes in and nothing comes out. - You defend yourself, right?

Let in only what you want and let out what you no longer want.

Is there a census of caves in the area?

I'll check with the Land Registry and if there is one, they'll send it to the Police Headquarters.

She believes a little in gypsyism.

We have nothing else and I don't like to sit around doing nothing.

Alexander's remains were in a cave-like recess.

Call me informally.

- Damn. - What's going on?

One of the caves surveyed is a few hundred meters away

from where we found the bones. I have to warn Giovanna.

Joan, eh ?

Joanna.

- Yes, Giovanna. So? - ​​I don't know, you have to tell me.

Bets are accepted. If I'm right, you owe me dinner.

Did you know that seven of the sanctuaries dedicated to St. Michael

are they built on a diagonal pointing to Jerusalem?

Long story short! Give me a shot!

One is here and we know what happened.

Let's check if children have disappeared in the other six places too.

Great idea, but you tell him in Santeramo.

It looks like a votive altar.

Alexander may have killed him here.

Yes. Let's call the police.

We need to check the other caves. Niccolò may be in one of them.

Did you think I was homesick for Naples?

Antonie', make us two good sandwiches.

Right away.

If you hate it here, tell me.

You would realize, I'm not good at lying.

Why did you apologize after you called the midwife a "gypsy"?

Did Marinetti tell you?

- Yes. Are you sorry? - No.

I don't understand why he wanted to tell you this.

He asked me to help him look for your mother.

He didn't tell me anything.

He thought it would help you feel better, feel good.

To feel good... It's an obsession.

Do you know anyone who always looks good?

Me niether.

I want to feel bad.

I know it's absurd for a Romani woman to abandon her child.

My mother is the exception that proves the rule, what can I tell you?

Did you find it?

No.

Alfredo wanted to stop, what he was doing didn't seem right to him.

But we have collected several information. If you want, I can...

No, I don't want to. If I wanted to, I would have found them myself.

Do you want to walk a bit?

Where did they go?

But how many women does he have!

Stop it.

I know you're not sleeping.

Long, torn from is.

Well, so many tu non me revolgi oral.

Since the world began, wives have decided when their husbands

they have to sleep on the couch. - The world has changed.

I'm sleeping, are you going away?

Come on... go back to bed.

No, it doesn't exist at all.

Invasion of the pitch.

A leg teases.

Holy shit...

Locascio? Come, come.

I'll teach you something, the art of observation.

Gerri and Aquarica arrived together.

She was wearing yesterday's clothes, she didn't change.

"Ergo", she never came home. Ergo, she slept at his place.

Nothing escapes me.

- See? - Good. I'm going to replace Coen on Professor Anselmi.

Do me a favor. Tell Coen that if we had bet

I would have won, she understands. - You tell her when she gets there.

Should I tell him?

[KNOCKING AT THE DOOR] Come in.

HI.

- Is there any news? - Alessandro was killed in that votive basin.

The dogs found nothing.

I told Gerri that you asked me to research her mother.

- What did you do? - What I just told you and what you had to do.

Gerri needs to be treated like an adult

not like a kid.

This is the second time you've called him Gerri.

I know.

I call the people I sleep with by their names, Alfredo.

Problems ?

[CELL PHONE RINGING]

- What's going on? - I'm following Anselmi, before there was Coen.

He took a lot of turns and took a taxi. I'm in a taxi too.

- If it has a theme song, you know where it's going. - Already done.

We have a communication code in case of problems.

- He's going to the sanctuary of San Michele Milite. What do I do? - Stop him.

- Take it to the police station. I'll have the computer seized. - All right.

- Can I talk to you? - Do you have something to tell me about work? - No.

- Then we have nothing to say to each other. - That's not true.

Remember when he said I do the opposite of what we tell each other?

She did the same thing. In my case it was an investigation

this is my fucking life! - I just wanted you to be okay.

He made a mistake! You're all breaking my balls with your emotions!

I would be the emotional one, but it's you. Lea is afraid of suffering

she's afraid that I'm suffering. What the fuck do you have with suffering?

Nothing. I tried to make the first move for you.

While you were following the case of the Romani woman, you thought about your family.

- So? If I wanted to, I would have looked for it myself. - I was wrong.

I was wrong. If you change your mind, it's all in my desk drawer.

I don't change my mind, I don't need it. They're bringing Anselmi, inform Santeramo.

Then you say that I don't warn!

Why was he heading to the sanctuary?

- I'm devout, I go there often. - Did they kick you out? - Yes.

- Santeramo can do its show with Aquarica. - For three days

he was trying to lose the police. Is it part of the devotion?

I do not understand.

Listen, my friend, we're talking about a missing child here.

I can request an arrest and put her in jail. Is that clear?

Did he realize he was being followed or not?

I didn't run away to do something bad.

I wanted to check if the child was there and then I would call you.

- I'm tired of being taken for a madman. - Ah. - Where?

At the sanctuary? Is he making fun of us? That place is full of people.

Underground, below the votive altar there is a room

carved into the stone dedicated to the angel.

-Nobody knows it, it's a kind of cave. -Why are you an exception?

In the archives of the Curia I found a medieval plan of the sanctuary.

It was in an estate, it was never catalogued.

- How do you know that room really exists ? - I checked.

The iron ring above the passage is not visible

because it is embedded in the stones. - Have you spoken to anyone about it?

Did he post the news on his website?

- No, otherwise the Superintendency would have gotten involved. - Of course.

A child ended up here.

- Did you understand or not? - Anselmi, there is no more time.

- Tell us where this secret room is. - I have to accompany you. - No.

You stay here. I'll get the Curia to give me a map of the place.

It is no longer in the archive.

I... I stole it.

I'll go check. You scan phones, computers.

Check if Anselmi really didn't tell anyone about it.

It's in my studio now.

In the document holder on the desk.

You are aware that we are making all this fuss without any proof

can you confirm that the child is at the sanctuary?

If you have no alternatives, stop bothering me, Calandrini.

Here I am.

- Tell me everything. - We need to know whose they are.

these non-nominal email addresses . - All right.

Give me a seat, I'll be a minute.

Use Gerri's, he's out minding his own business.

[CELL PHONE RINGING]

- Yes. - Two months ago Anselmi informed about ten of his fans

of the existence of the secret room.

In the email he claims to have found the real gate to hell.

- Have you identified them? - Annalisa traced the names, let's check.

- Hurry up. The murderer could be among them. - Where are you?

- At the sanctuary. - Does the boss know you're there? - I don't have to tell him everything.

You're a dickhead. If the baby is there, you risk making a mess.

What's the alternative? Do we let Niccolò die too?

Don't worry, I blend in with the tourists.

I've seen this before. It was on the school surveillance tapes.

[THUMP]

Nicholas?

Nicholas? Nicholas?

These are the sanctuaries dedicated to Saint Michael. The three highlighted

they were built... - No art history lesson needed.

- Let's get straight to the point. - He's the point.

Dario Stirri, thirty years old. As a teenager he was followed

for personality disorders. - The family?

His parents died in an accident when he was 10.

He grew up with his grandmother. He does porterage, cleaning, things like that.

- He frequented those sanctuaries. - Where was he in 2013? - In Trani

but after Alessandro's disappearance, he moved to Mont Saint-Michel.

From 2008 to 2012 he lived in Avigliana, in Val di Susa.

- He met Anselmi there. - Have any children disappeared in those areas?

- We're checking. - Are we sure what time it is in Trani?

The day before the kidnapping he was in front of Niccolò's school.

This zoom is from the security camera.

Go get it.

The problem is where, he has no address or telephone

to help us track him down. - Let's ask Anselmi, shall we?

We have him here, he makes himself useful for something.

What happened to Esposito in all of this ?

I heard from him an hour ago. He was going to the sanctuary to check if Anselmi

he had told the truth about the room. - How? - Alone?

Maybe you don't know him, Gerri almost always does everything by himself.

Coen, call him. Tell him to come back.

Eh! That's better.

Wow!

Yes, I know him. I don't know where he lives, but I know him.

It's Dario Stirri, he was a student of mine in middle school.

After you sent him that map, did you meet?

- How do you know I sent it to you? - We consulted the oracle.

Professor, we are policemen, right?

How do we know things?

Yes, we met. Dario was a great help.

Thanks to him I had confirmation that the room exists.

- How? - With a site inspection. When did you stop me?

I was going back to the sanctuary, I was hoping to meet him.

I wanted him to help me look for the baby.

- He has access to all the rooms. - Why does he have access to the rooms?

He works there, he cleans.

Gerri's phone is off, it's impossible to contact him.

- There's no reception in the basement. - We have to go to the sanctuary.

-Do you think something happened to him? -I hope not, but Stirri works there.

Anselmi told us this only now.

You were wrong to tell Gerri the truth. How long have you known him?

- Oh, yes, since you started addressing him informally. - Listen... - Congratulations, good job.

Now he is more stubborn than before and does not coordinate with me.

Call Santeramo, I need permission from the Curia to enter there.

[LOCK CLICKS]

Luckily, she's here, doctor. The secretary answers at the sanctuary

and the archbishop's secretary says he is unavailable. - Let's see.

No, he didn't understand!

I don't care about the preparations for the party, the pilgrims, everyone!

A child's life is at stake here , is that clear?

Exactly! Then at least do the check I asked you to do.

Thank you !

This has no decision-making power.

He is one of the deacon's assistants.

He doesn't even know who Dario Stirri is or if he's there right now.

The Superintendency can't do anything.

To enter, you need the archbishop's permission.

Enough, let's break into that sanctuary

at the cost of unleashing a war between Italy and the Vatican State.

I'll bring the army if needed! [CELL PHONE RINGS READY!]

Eminence.

Thank God.

[INDISTINCT NOISE]

Nicholas!

HI.

You scared us.

Do you know how long we've been looking for you?

Do you have pain somewhere?

I'm a cop. I'll take you home now.

Are you hungry? Do you want candy?

I don't like mint.

I only have this one.

- Are you really a cop? - Yes.

My name is Gregorio Esposito, Gerri.

- Like the little mouse? - Yes.

- And this one? - No... No, no, no.

- If I touch it, the angel will kill my parents. - No, don't worry.

It doesn't kill anyone.

Do you remember who brought you here?

Can you describe it?

No, he had something on his face, like the one for robberies.

The one with the holes here, black? A balaclava.

We don't care. Now let's go home.

[INDISTINCT NOISE]

It always does this, it's a magic door.

Be careful! The bats come from there and then go away!

Yes.

If bats come and go, they are somewhere.

- They fit through the hole, we are bigger. - Now we widen it.

Okay.

Niccolò, we'll pass through here.

- Come. - No, I'm not coming there.

- Come, Niccolò. - No, I'm scared!

Niccolò, we can't stay here forever.

I don't want to come, I'm scared!

I'm scared too.

- I'm scared, I don't want to come! - Niccolò.

Cow!

Let's do this thing together. Okay?

Look at me. Trust me.

Look at me, it's easy.

Have you seen?

It's easy.

Okay.

Niccolò, put your foot there. Come, put your foot there.

Don't be afraid. Sometimes it seems like the world is falling apart.

but in the end the world never falls.

Look what I have. Ta-ta!

Second.

[FOOTFOOT NOISE]

None of the prelates know where Stirri lives. No one has seen him today.

The iron ring has been removed.

Did you hear that, Niccolò? They're coming to get us.

Stand in the corner and cover your ears tightly. Go!

Let's find a way to force this trap door, come on!

[INDISTINCT NOISE]

Waist?

Did you see? Everything went well.

[INAUDIBLE DIALOGUE]

Stopped !

Ours is the battle to stop the Apocalypse!

- Are you okay? - The angel told me!

Call the boss, have a patrol car sent.

Did he confess?

Everything, much more than we expected.

He is still convinced that he acted in the name of Saint Michael.

Dario has always been a strange boy.

- I couldn't understand... - Anselmi, you had to tell us everything, right away.

Stop spreading such nonsense.

For the rest, it will be up to the PM to evaluate his degree of responsibility.

You can go.

- Do you want a coffee? - Yes.

Now that she's leaving, will you survive without her?

You're jealous.

- No. I enjoy making you believe that. - Mhm.

- Do you realize that you saved my life? - You too, we're even.

- How did you find me? - Like I always do.

I pull the net and you're inside, paranza.

(quietly) Come on, Goran, let's run away now.

Are you crazy? We're already grounded.

Then I don't call myself that anymore.

Adelina asked me if I like the name Gregorio. What do you think?

With rhymes it's worse, maybe Gerri

who sells knitting needles, but not those for socks.

The guns.

Okay, then Gerri.

> When are you returning to Naples?

Time to pack my bags and off I go.

Let's pretend to love each other forever despite the distance

or do we thank each other for the good time we had and amen?

There are also middle ways. You could come visit me in Naples.

- You have a score to settle with that city. - No.

For me, Naples is a closed chapter, I have nothing left that ties me to it.

Don Mimì is dead, Adelina is dead, sometimes I only think about Tano

the only friend I had in the family home. -Why didn't you look for him?

I was younger than Tano and we had different ways of seeing life

like cops and robbers. He was the thief.

- You're talking about Gaetano Di Castro. - Yes.

- Why? - Studying the paperwork

I saw that the policeman who welcomed you when you were abandoned

he was on duty during his arrest.

Tano was found with several grams of cocaine on him

but he got off lightly.

He sold himself to someone, he gave some names.

If he had named any names, there would have been some arrests later.

- But it didn't happen. - What do you want to tell me?

Alfredo and I met that policeman, he didn't tell us much.

If I were you, I wouldn't stop.

To discover the truth, start again with Tano, Gerri.

If you need me... I'm here.

In exchange though... you have to make sure Alfredo takes care of himself.

- I still love him a little. - Okay.
