Better hurry.

Bath is in 15 minutes.

Maygray?

You decided to show up?

Well, you needn't have bothered.

I can handle things here.

Less than what you said last night.

Last night, I was upset.

What happened to Janosch? Good morning, Countess.

Dr. Bouchardon.

Good morning.

I kicked Janosch out.

I'm kicking them all out. I rely too long on untrustworthy men.

I... Don't include your father in that.

I'm sorry for what I said last night. It wasn't true.

I apologize.

You should go back to Paris, Maygray.

I'll look after Sanfiakra.

Who am I photographing exactly?

May Gray thinks Antoine Bertie's killer might be here.

Where's the boss?

Lucas said he had to leave town.

Personal.

What's wrong?

I got Antoine's father, his sister.

Looks like we're starting.

me beside the still waters, he restoreth my soul.

He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no

evil.

For thou art with me, thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me.

Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies.

Thou anointest my name.

I'll ask again. What's the point of this?

May Gray asked for it.

May Gray knows we have the murderer. He said so yesterday. So what are we doing?

Anyone?

Look, we need to get the art thieves back in the room and put the screws to

them. Put the screws to them? Yes.

You know what I mean.

Sergeant Lucas, if you can't get hold of May Gray, I'll get hold of Carnival. We

only have these suspects for so long and we are wasting time.

It was a heart attack, Captain Chabot.

She had complaints to me of chest pains, feeling faint.

I gave her pills for high blood pressure and I begged her to go and get a proper

check -up, but her son was breaking her heart.

This is just tragic.

Lucas. Boss, we did surveillance on the funeral. We got the photos, but we don't

know what to do with them.

Can I see them?

Sure, where are you?

Saint -Pierre, near Montmirail. What? That's two hours away.

Boss, we need to work the batikas out.

Do we get the art thieves back in? Yes.

Despite the business with the photographs this morning?

Yes. Keep questioning the gang, and if the media ask questions, just tell them

we're not looking for anyone else.

Boss, you're trying to send a message to someone, aren't you?

Who?

I don't know.

Boss, is there anything we can do to help?

Yes.

A woman just died.

A woman I came here to help.

I need a hand down here. Who can you spare?

You can have Jean -Vier in La Pointe. The road time off.

Tell them to meet me at La Manon Hotel in Saint -François.

And bring the photos.

Thanks, Lucas.

Madame Joan.

Can I speak to Ernest?

I was told he was altar boy at this morning's mass.

He's not here.

I don't know where he is.

Thank you very much.

Hello, Ernest.

What did you give the Countess in church this morning?

Nothing. Let go of me.

Get off of me, you big pedo.

We're getting there.

Lost something?

They're mine. She didn't even give me time to pack.

Where are you going to go?

How would I know?

I sacrificed so much moving here.

And then she was irrational.

The accusations.

She was not a well woman.

I'd stick around if I were you.

Why could I?

Do you want your face all over the TV?

A lot of people like me coming after you.

Stick around.

come on y 'all

What are you doing here?

Having a pee.

You have no jurisdiction here. I want you to leave.

I am leaving.

But I'm not going away.

Nor should you.

Torres. Boss, I've got a call for you.

He says it's about Betty, but he'll only talk to you.

Thanks.

Put him through.

This is May Gray.

Don't bother to trace the call. I won't be on long enough.

We're not tracing it.

Do you know who I am?

No.

But I know what you did.

Then why did you tell lies in public?

To get you to call me.

killed before?

I don't know.

But can I ask you a question?

Do you remember his face?

Antoine Bati, when you went back and looked at him, then

stabbed him again.

So, do you remember his face?

And that is the objectivity.

Better hurry.

Message in 15 minutes.

Can I help you with something?

Chief Inspector May Gray.

May Gray?

Are you... Was this... I am. And this... Well, I suppose

it was.

Once. Ah.

Well.

Come in, please.

Please come in.

Natalie, guess who's here.

May Gray.

Son of Everest May Gray, the estate manager before me.

Madame Gauthier.

Mademoiselle. And his daughter.

And bank manager, if I'm not mistaken.

That's right. Crédit Rural.

My wife and I separated some years ago.

She found country life too hard.

You've made some changes.

The old place was completely falling apart. Sadly, I had no choice.

I still don't know why you kept this old table.

I kept it because it has character.

Character and for continuity.

Dad?

Is everything okay?

Yeah.

Of course. The Countess is a terrible tragedy.

We're heartbroken.

Poor dear Sophie.

Tell me about Janos Varga.

Oh, well.

I'm afraid it's not a very edifying story.

An attractive man, a vulnerable older woman.

He took advantage of her? Well, I wish he'd spent less on his art.

In the scheme of things, I suppose it didn't really matter.

Anyway, I hear he's gone. Good riddance.

You here?

You gave him a lift half an hour ago.

Where to?

A hotel in Montmirail.

He had nowhere else to go. I felt sorry for him.

The Countess's son will be here soon. What will you tell him?

Is that any of your business?

Do you want me to make it my business?

Look, it's obvious. The estate is bankrupt.

Things started to go wrong under your father, I'm afraid.

Don't get me wrong, he was a decent man, but out of his depth.

And, well, Sophie trusted him until it was too late.

I did what I could. I sold what farms I could to stem the bleeding, but... What

will your advice to Maurice be?

Sell. He has no choice.

I doubt the sale will even pay off the overdraft.

I'll do my best to help him, of course. It's not like he ever showed much

interest in the place.

Again, I'm sorry your visit was so sad.

Have a safe trip back to Paris.

I'm not going back to Paris.

I'm taking this.

What? It belongs to the estate.

It belongs to my father.

Bought it as a gift for the Countess's 21st birthday.

This is his copy.

Meg Ray?

Carver got a result.

Bronco and Sovereign both made statements refusing Mila's alibi.

We haven't had the lab report back on the knife.

The other evidence is enough to charge Mila of Antoine's murder. So, knowing

thing that you know, which you are refusing to share, should we go ahead

charge her? Yes.

But put my name on the charge sheet.

Carver will be royally pissed off.

He's not the only one who'll be pissed off.

He'll thank me in the long run.

You're playing a dangerous game, boss.

Jambier, at last.

The game is working. Keep playing it.

My name on the charge sheet. Miele is the killer.

All right for some.

For a month -to -month funeral.

Thanks. Can I have one of those, please? Not yet.

I need you to go to Montmirail Town Hall, ask for the property records, find

who owns these farms.

Also, when they were bought, how much for, and who did the financing.

We've just driven for two hours.

And the office closes in two hours.

If anyone gives you any grief, tell them it's a murder investigation.

You can take this.

You can keep it.

Hey, Grey.

Sweetheart.

Are you all right?

I'm so sorry about the Countess.

It was in church, like my dreams.

She died almost in front of me.

I'm sorry, my love.

But look, about your text, I've dropped in on Helene because I think you must

have misheard about the Countess's condition.

What do you mean?

You wrote high blood pressure.

That's what the doctor said.

But the pills you photographed were flutocortisone.

So... Hi.

Flutocortisone is for hypotension. Low blood pressure.

If you give this to someone with high blood pressure, you're just exacerbating

the condition.

So you must have misheard, because no doctor would prescribe these.

No, of course. Thanks, Helen.

Are you coming back or staying?

Staying. A little bit longer.

I saw on the news you're charging someone in the boy's murder.

Yes, but not the killer.

He called me.

And?

And I don't know.

He's made contact, so I'm one step closer to him. Are you in the right

Maygrave?

You mean in my head?

No.

Reality.

Geography.

You should be here.

Paris.

Crime is committed here, too.

I rolled the dice.

Now I have to follow through.

Okay.

I love you.

I love you, too.

I had to go to the morgue in Montmery to identify her.

Thought how young she seemed.

But then she was young.

52.

Yes.

Same age as my father.

She told me you liked it.

Calvados. Thank you.

Why are you here?

Your mother called me.

She said she was ill, scared, and surrounded by people she didn't trust.

I came, but not in time to help her.

I let her down.

I'm the one who let her down.

And I'm afraid I'm going to keep on doing it.

I'm going to sell the Chateau.

Gautier says I have to.

But this place destroyed my mother. I won't let it destroy me.

I will walk away without a backwards glance.

I felt the same when my father died.

That it had killed him.

I left.

Never wanted to see it again.

Is that why you went to Paris?

The police?

Paris, yes. Not the police.

I went into a black hole for two years.

Drink, drug, everything else.

Like I wanted to flush Sanfianca out of my system.

What happened?

Well, someone was kind.

Told me to grow up.

Who? You do what you have to do.

All I will say is, Gautier was not on your mother's side, and he's not on

But he's not wrong about how things are.

And what choice do I have?

I have no money, no recourse.

Nothing.

I believe bad things were done here.

Not just today, but for years.

If you're willing to fight, I can give you the ammunition.

Are you hungry?

Most of the time.

I don't know what we have.

Then let's have a look.

Yep.

Madam Prosecutor, I think you know that I'm all about loyalty and

the team.

Yes?

When the leader of that team absents himself from the work but still takes

credit for the results of that work, isn't one obliged to protest on behalf

the team?

You're talking about me, Gray?

Yes.

He insisted on putting his name on a charge sheet where he had nothing,

literally nothing, to do with closing the case.

Plus, by the way, where is he?

Nobody seems to know, apart from maybe Sergeant Lucas and she... May Gray is in

San Fiacre.

An urgent personal matter.

You knew.

Still, it's not right.

It's not.

Ideal. I'd like my protest to go on the record.

If the chief inspector sees fit to swath into the middle of nowhere on some

personal matter, but still take the credit for other people's hard work.

And you're 100 % confident in this work?

Yes, ma 'am. We have built a good case.

Watertight.

It's watertight as any case can be, you know, but lawyers and courts... Yes.

Thank you, Inspector Carver.

Thank you, Mom.

You're allowed to just take time off like this.

Disappear from work.

Why was there a risk I had to take?

You have copies of everything?

Good.

She at the hotel.

The ammunition's starting to come in.

Tomorrow, you should request a meeting here.

Invite Gauthier, his daughter, Dr. Bouchardon, even Janos Varga. No.

Yes.

Tell them you're telling Samfiak.

And you want to thank everyone for everything they've done for your mother

the years. Invite that gendarmerie captain Chabot as well.

I don't understand.

I'll be here early tomorrow morning.

We'll give you the ammunition.

Then you'll understand.

Then you'll be angry.

That Andre?

Lucas, you're working late.

I think I've got him on the line.

Put him through.

Thanks, Lucas.

Meghri.

You're right.

I haven't slept.

I keep seeing his face.

How about when I turned him over?

He looked at me like I had come to help him.

Grateful.

And that made you angry?

Yeah.

I had to show him that I hadn't come to help.

So I stabbed him again.

Then he knew who I was.

I'm here.

Do you have an answer to the question, have I killed before?

I still don't.

The stranger death, that's the thing you fear the most, isn't it?

No connection between killer and victim.

Yes.

We are afraid of that.

So my next victim will be a stranger and you won't solve that one either.

You're overlooking one thing.

There is a connection.

Between you and me.

Just because I talk to you doesn't mean you know me.

You don't know me.

I'm looking at you right now.

You're suffering.

You keep seeing his face.

Quite faithful.

Keep at it.

We've a job to do.

The last of the Lafitte.

Come on, Captain Shabba.

You're not on duty.

My mother would be very happy to see the house full again with friends and

colleagues.

Salut.

But all good things must come to an end.

I'm going to take Monsieur Gauthier's advice and put the chateau up for sale.

Oh, my dear boy.

I'm so sorry.

Thank you, Dr. Bouchardot.

And because you are not just...

Such good friends to my mother.

But you are also wise in the ways of the world.

I want to ask what you think.

How much will I get?

Mademoiselle Gautier, our accounts are held at your bank. What's our overdraft?

Nearly two million euros, I'm afraid.

Ouch.

Gautier, what can we get for the remaining land?

Well, it's very hard to estimate. We'll have to compare with recent sales.

All right.

Let's do that.

Middle Farm.

Sold five years ago.

300 hectares.

About the same as the land I have left.

What did it go for?

I'm afraid I don't have the figures in my head.

It sold for 850 ,000 euros.

That's not good.

Well, you have to understand the land values have been declining. I could only

find one buyer.

Understood. But what about the farmhouse?

It was 18th century.

850 ,000 euros included the farmhouse. It was in terrible condition.

Your mother was lucky to get that much.

Okay.

It was sold 18 months later for 2 .5 million euros.

Okay. San André, much larger, 500 hectares.

Given arable land's worth 7 ,000 a hectare, we must have got at least 3

San André was sold for 970 ,000 euros. Most of the land was just grazing.

Prices were depressed at the time. And you could only find one buyer. Yes, I

could only find one buyer. Look, I can see what you're doing.

You brought these people here, whoever they are.

San Andre was sold two years later for 3 .5 million euros.

3 .5 million.

Some profit.

Who was the lucky buyer?

A limited company based in Liechtenstein.

Service et Conseil Rural, S -A -R -L.

The same company also bought Middle Farm.

The directors are Sebastian Gauthier and Natalie Gauthier. I don't have to

listen to this.

Come on, Natalie.

Bloody ridiculous.

Hey, get out of the way. Get out of the way.

Captain Chabot, tell him to get out of the way.

He's a friend of the family.

What can I do?

Shall I summarize, Gauthier?

Whenever my mother needed to sell a property to keep the estate alive, you

handled the sale.

You sold to yourself for the lowest possible price, then sold on a few

later for a huge profit.

I'm sure when I tried to sell the chateau, you'd have only found one buyer

that, too.

Lichtenstein.

Dr. Bouchardon.

Anything to say?

What can I say?

I'm shocked.

It is shocking, isn't it?

But perhaps not as shocking as prescribing her the drugs that killed

What are you talking about?

My mother suffered from high blood pressure. But for months, you prescribed

drugs for low blood pressure, making a heart attack more likely, especially in

the event of a sudden shock. Stop it!

I prescribed her drugs according to the symptoms she told me.

This is a request for an autopsy to be performed on Countess Sophie de Saint

-Friacre. due to the suspicious circumstances surrounding her death.

Don't you dare.

Janosch, I've neglected you. I'm sorry. I have nothing to do with any of this.

This phone was given to Sophie de Saint -Fiacre yesterday. It has photos of her

of a sexually graphic nature.

A statement from Ernest Jean, altar boy.

saying Janos Vaga paid him 100 euros to give the Countess the phone in church

and remove it afterwards.

That was the shock that stopped her heart.

Can you prove it? I don't know.

But if you check their call logs, you'll see they were all talking to one

another, especially after they heard that I was coming.

I will examine these so I can understand fully what has happened. I'll tell you

what's happened.

I worked.

I slaved to keep this place alive.

You, what did you do but waste money in Paris?

You're just like your mother, parasite, living off the sweat of a... He saw

that. He assaulted him. He insulted his mother.

What did you expect?

Do not leave this area, or I will issue warrants for Europe.

Get off me, I'm all right.

Sorry, sorry.

I'm just a bit... She would have been proud of you.

Charge, Chief. Convey via Mila for the murder of Antoine Batty.

Lab is not 100 % on Mila's knife.

No DNA. Obviously the killer would have cleaned it, but it's 100 % matched for

blade and stab deaths.

Good.

Well done, Inspector.

Come with me and we'll inform Monsieur Miller.

Wait.

What time is Matisse at?

Between 10 .25 and 10 .35.

I've been checking the CCTV from the night Antoine was killed.

Camera on an ATM near the Basilique de Saint -Denis metro.

Who do you think they are?

That's Mila, Bronco and Sovereign.

This is exactly where Mila said he was in his alibi. And as he also said in his

alibi, the other two are with him.

May Gray asked you to track the robbers and you couldn't be bothered?

I'm an inspector. It's not my job. It is your job.

Clearly, Mila did not do it.

Is May Gray any closer to identifying the real killer?

They're talking, but still no ID.

What do you mean, they're talking?

But he knew it wasn't me that he... Why would he do that? Why would he do this?

You got the degree in psychology, mate.

Okay, so what happens next?

Where is the killer?

Hey, let me help you.

I can manage. No.

No, I want to help you.

Thank you.

What you guys just did was amazing.

I don't know how I could ever repay you. Easy.

Invite us round for a weekend.

Two weekends.

Anytime you want.

It's me.

I'm starting back.

That's good.

I'm at home now.

Is everything okay?

Yeah.

You know, you roll the dice.

I'll see you soon.

I love you.

Love you too.

Antoine Batiste's killer is in my apartment. He has my wife. Jambier will

your car.

Just a cordon outside the building. That's all.

Loafing. He's just going to walk in there.

He's saving his danger to himself more than anyone else.

No. I'll speak to the director. I will not risk lives. There should be a raid

team in there. Maybray knows the killer. He's been talking to him. He knows the

killer is waiting for him.

But I'm prosecutor you have to trust me gray on this I did trust him and look

where we are Okay,

okay low -key

How

did

you find where we live

I read that Chief Inspector May Gray's wife works as a psychiatric nurse, so I

called every hospital in town and asked to talk to you.

You should have been a real feminist and kept your maiden name.

I love my husband.

Having his name doesn't diminish me.

I'll be sure to.

Are you scared?

Yes.

I've never seen him angry.

I'm wondering what it will be like.

Joliet?

Joliet, please stay one minute.

Roger that. We're outside.

You want some breaking news?

Anything? She's been on the roof office. They're in the kitchen. Your wife's at

the table. She seems okay.

If Terrence couldn't be in, then so can a sniper. No. Can I have a radio?

Come in when I say, not before.

Boss, he's got a knife.

In case he needs to blow his head off.

Come in.

Don't come any closer.

Has he hurt you? No.

We've been talking.

Why don't you sit down?

Did you get done what you needed to?

Yes.

Stop.

You talked to me, not her.

What are you here to talk about?

You disrespected me.

You called me a coward.

I did.

I'm sorry.

Or you underestimated me.

Didn't you?

Tell me what you want.

You don't want to be forgotten. Well...

No, she doesn't know what she's talking about.

I know the answer to your question.

Have you killed before?

You have.

But it was a long time ago.

It wasn't planned.

Someone angered you.

Or disrespected you.

You stopped.

You weren't caught.

You weren't even suspected.

For months you were afraid you'd be found out, but you never were.

But eventually you began to get angry.

Because no one knew what you'd done.

This incredible thing that you'd done. What had I done? Taken a life.

Crossed the line.

Removed yourself from the community of man.

going on down there? We've got media arriving. This is not going to stay low

-key. Do what you can. Just keep people back.

Zizi, how the hell did you find out?

What? One of you lot coming from the Queen. One of our lot.

And it's not just me.

Everyone's coming.

Who was he?

Guy Dubois.

He was this guy who went with a girl I liked who I thought liked me.

I found him up by the river by himself.

I went up to him.

He said, what's up?

I slid the knife into him.

He said, what? And then he fell down and I walked away.

How did you feel?

Sick. Sick. Sick.

I couldn't eat or sleep.

My parents were sure I was ill.

I began to feel different. I'd done it.

Crossed your line.

And you wanted to feel like that again?

Yeah.

Why Antoine Batu?

I'd spent the day walking and looking, you know, just looking. And I

thought it was never going to happen.

And then...

He just walked by, soaked.

Happy.

He ordered a crepe.

A crepe.

He was happy, and... I wasn't, I just... I left him.

They're not here!

I've got to get out of here. That won't happen. It will. With her, I'll walk

right out.

Don't move!

Don't move.

I don't want to go to prison.

Will you tell them that I couldn't help it, I was driven to it? I can do that.

And you work with crazy people. You look after crazy people, so just tell them,

I'm mad.

Yeah, until I cross your line.

Will you tell them?

No.

Dad alone isn't mad.

And no, I don't agree with my husband. You haven't crossed some magical line.

He cares about the pain that you feel. I care about the pain that you've caused.

You did terrible things.

Not incredible things.

You are responsible.

When you accept that.

able to sleep.

Now, please give me the knife.

He would have shot me.

Take a seat.

Do you like a drink?

Please.

I'm wanted.

I don't know your name.

It's Percy.

Guillaume Percy.

Cliff, come in.

Door's on the latch.

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

We're fine.

Thanks, Andrea.

We give our back to Torrance.

Better drink up, you.

Will you come visit me in prison?

You're done.

Find a new team.

You don't tell me what to do, I am.

You're done.

Inspector Carver has asked for a transfer out of La Creme.

He says it's a hostile.

Work environment is affecting his mental health.

Honestly, May Gray, he was two -faced and incompetent. He's gone.

Two murders solved, one from 15 years ago. Three thieves charged for the

attempted theft of a billionaire's art collection.

And I saw this morning that a Monsieur Gauthier and his daughter were arrested

at Charles de Gaulle trying to board a flight to Dakar with more than five

million euros in cash.

So we should be pleased, are we?

If it weren't for my wife, we'd be looking at a very different picture.

How is he?

Must have been traumatic, to say the least.

We'll take some time off, if that's okay.

Go to the country.

Of course.

Welcome back, Nigri.

I'm Maurice.

Louise. A pleasure.

Tidied up a bit?

I can see.

Thank you.

My mother will be just down there.

Church will be looked after.

A lot of things will be looked after.

The shutter's opened.

The drink's waiting and something a bit better than what I offered you last

time. I'll finish up here and see you there in 20 minutes. That would be

Thank you.

San Piacra.

You've come home.
