PANDORA

One should first establish what constitutes Belgian justice.

-Yeah? -You hiding or what?

Claire!

Claire! You're up!

Coming, Mom.

We should come to your parents' more often.

Hello.

-Ready for the emotional segment? -Not at all.

-Thanks. -You'll do great.

Go before it melts, and put it on the table!

It's now.

-Hold on, it's my job. -No way. Not tonight.

Stand here.

My dear!

Your daughter wants to say a few words.

I just wanted to make a toast

to the dashing 75 year old we're celebrating today.

There's no stopping you.

Even time has no hold on you.

Excuse me.

Dad...

Who'd have thought you'd be the top candidate again

of the oldest party in Europe?

Your young colleagues have got nothing on you.

They're waiting for you to retire... in vain.

I know you don't like compliments, but during your long career,

you've achieved wonderful things.

Even if along the way you had to make some concessions,

you never abandoned your sense of morality,

your sense of duty.

Sorry... I have to take this. Sorry, Dad.

She's just like her father!

-I'm so sorry... -Be quick.

Sorry. Yes...

The financial fraud squad found other accounts

and want to add addresses to the raids.

-I'll come later for the warrants. -No, wait.

-There's an issue with one address. -What issue?

It's your parents' address.

Are you sure?

Yes. I connected the dots. No one knows, but...

It's your call. What should we do?

-Who's the judge on duty? -Lobet.

Shit. Listen...

Ask him to co-sign the warrants.

OK. And the raids?

If we need to pull the plug, we need to do it now.

-Claire? -No. Carry on.

Seriously...

Ah, she's back.

Dad, who would've thought...

that you'd go that far?

And...

I don't just mean in politics.

You should know that...

you've always been a role model to me.

Happy birthday, Dad.

Dad?

Your Honor.

Don't tell your mom.

Why is your name linked to an offshore account?

-Excuse me? -A bank in the Marshall Islands.

What should I expect to find?

Please say it's nothing.

I don't have to explain myself to you.

Do you have something to hide?

-Dad. -It's none of your concern.

Five years...

Five years I've been on the Andorp case!

I've gone through every account and every financial move.

Did you really think I wouldn't find out?

I have absolutely nothing to do with your case.

I checked all their transaction history.

Tell me the truth.

They're going to search this place. I need to know.

Will they find anything?

Dad? Dad?

Dad?

It'll be OK.

He's a tough guy.

Sorry.

-Yes, René? -What's this mess with your dad?

It was just a follow-up to the investigation.

A follow-up? In a case like that?

-We were almost there... -I have to go. Sorry.

What did you say?

-To who? -In the office.

What happened?

Sorry.

-Our hands are tied, Claire. -I know.

If you will, Mr. President?

Judge Lobet, you'll be taking over Judge Delval's case.

And I suppose Judge Delval will take my shift.

Naturally.

Mom...

Leave it, Mom. We need to go.

-Not with these strangers here. -No, Mom...

They're wrecking our home.

Do something!

-I can't do anything. -I have to go.

You have no right to ransack my house!

-Mom... -No!

Please, Mrs. Delval.

He's done nothing wrong.

Please...

Another turn of events in the Andorp case.

Investigating Judge Delval's case

led to several searches this morning.

One of them was at the home of her father,

MP Simon Delval.

She had to remove herself from the case.

The PLF Party's prominent figure is being investigated.

Given the circumstances,

how will Mr. Delval, the top candidate of the PLF party,

continue campaigning in the federal elections?

If he does pull out of the race,

who will replace him?

Got it.

Here we go.

See?

All your belongings are here.

That way you'll feel right at home.

All my things aren't here.

Well, it's impossible to fit a whole house in here.

But, look...

This is your sitting area.

Do you want some coffee?

The manager's on her way.

-Krystel. -Get to the office.

-Where's the rest of my furniture? -Still at your house.

-I said I was busy. -It's official: Delval's out.

There's a meeting. It's being decided now.

-Mark! -They're choosing the top candidate!

-What? - It's your turn.

-I'm on my way. -Mark.

The party's holding a crisis meeting.

-Right now? -Yes.

What's going on?

I'm sorry, Mom, I've got to go.

You can't leave me all by myself.

Of course not, Hélène will stay until the carers come.

I'll come back later.

I'll come visit all the time, OK, Mom?

It'll be OK.

Thank you, thank you.

See you soon, Mom, OK?

Asshole.

God damn it.

Delval got the axe. George will announce it later.

They're all in there.

-Alain, you with me for... -Yes.

Hey, Mark.

We're discussing how to announce Delval's resignation.

This is bad. We'll be down 11 points.

We have no choice but to put Alain forward.

Excuse me?

We can't risk making you top candidate.

What?

It's too early.

You're "obscure" in the public eye.

Not visible enough.

What do you mean, "obscure"?

Too serious and unsexy for demographics.

You're no match for the greens.

Alain will join the federal roll.

It'll go public at the end of the week.

Mark, you remain in third position.

Right, we've got work to do.

Alain. Delval's protégé?

I know. But we're running checks.

Don't worry, the Andorp case won't damage him.

Sorry, Mark, right now he's...

-The ideal candidate. -The ideal candidate?

-That's not what we'd agreed. -It's too early.

Alain's better placed.

The latest polls showed it...

-You've got to be kidding. -The decision has been made!

Back to work.

I'm counting on you to support Alain.

He's going to need it.

Your time will come.

-Ludi? -Yeah.

-You OK? -Yeah.

Shouldn't we chain them up?

It's normal to be scared the first time.

Just follow my lead, OK?

Don't worry, Lulu.

It's last minute, but we couldn't miss this opportunity.

Yeah, you're right.

OK, let's go.

I'd like to thank the press for their patience.

And sorry for the delay on this tumultuous day.

I won't comment on the event that has shaken our party

and is under investigation.

While the courts do their work,

Mr. Delval has opted to withdraw from the electoral roll.

We accept his decision...

and are dealing with the consequences,

the first being a candidate reshuffle.

We will announce who will take his spot very soon...

Free Rachel!

Free Rachel or her blood will be on your hands!

-Where are you off to? -Get off me.

Get off me.

Get off.

-Fuck off! -Stay, don't move!

You can see you're hurting her, get off her!

Don't touch me.

Look at what they're doing to them!

Hey!

That's my goddam bike!

Hey, girl.

-Give me my bike back! -Who said it's yours?

-Stop! -Catch me if you can. Come on!

Here.

-Give me more, I've got clients. -Stop acting like a big man.

-Fag! -What did you say?

-I'll show you... -Shut the fuck up.

-Where are the two fairies? -They're coming.

-Go find them. -I said they're coming.

Hey!

-Come! -We're over here!

-We're over here. -Hey!

-Come check this out, guys. -What's up?

Take a look at that.

Welcome.

-How are you? -So, young lady.

-Are you looking for something? -Your bra?

-Nah, this. -That's why she's naked, guys.

Can I get my stuff, please?

-How do we know it's yours? -Fine, whatever.

Where are you going?

Dead end.

Are you lost? What's the matter?

She's confusing a parking lot for a beach!

-Go on, come get it. -Torero.

-Can I see or what? -Let me through, please.

We're just kidding. Where's your sense of humor?

I just wanna go home.

You'll get your sweater back.

Yeah. You'll get your sweater and bike back.

We're just curious.

-What's that on your body? -Nothing.

Don't be shy.

You can't go around like that and act coy.

You're nice to us, we're nice to you.

There! Satisfied?

-There you go! -Happy now?

-Check that out. -That'll get you more views, faggot.

-So, can I go now? -Hold on...

I didn't see properly...

Jerk off in your room, virgin!

I'm gonna fuck you! You'll see if I'm a virgin!

Leave me alone!

Here.

-What's it for? -Journalists, campaign, remember?

-I don't want to see those assholes. -Mark.

-I'm going home. -Put your big boy pants on and work.

We lost a battle, not the war, OK?

Have fun.

I think she wants your number.

She's into you, bro.

Can I go home now?

-He touches you, then you can leave. -What?

Don't be shy, go on, that's how it works with girls here.

-Get lost. -What are you, a fag?

You're the fag, asshole.

Let me show you how it's done.

Stay away. Don't come any closer.

Hold her down.

Show her who's boss.

Hold her down, guys.

-Fucking hold her down. -No!

No!

Whose turn is it? You?

-Yeah. -Go, Étienne!

Go, Étienne!

Go on, bro!

Yes, bro! That's my man!

Étienne, the beast!

Go on!

NO MOBILE NETWORK

Go on.

-Go on, bro. -Yes, bro!

Go on, Osman!

Go, go, go!

-There are others waiting! -You're a man.

You see? The lesbo likes it.

That's what she wanted, right?

Your turn.

-Cut it out, Steve. -No. Go or I'll fuck you up.

Told you he was a fag.

-You can tell he's a fag. -Hey, Osman.

-Is your cousin a fag? -None of us are.

Wahab.

So he's fucking his mom. Is that it?

Eh, Wahab? Motherfucker!

Yes! Yes! Yes!

Good evening, madam.

Judge Lobet.

Everything's there.

If you will.

Thank you.

Have a good evening.

Goodbye, Andorp...

There we go.

What are you doing?

-Samuel? -Sage.

For cleansing. We're letting go...

of this whole case

and accepting

-in its place... -Being on duty for a week...

A shity week.

There.

All right?

I got everything you asked for.

Did the doctor come back?

Mom?

CHAOS AT THE PLF PARTY PRESS CONFERENCE

Are you OK?

You can go now.

-Mom, please. -No.

-Go take a break. I'll take over. -You've done enough.

I don't want you here when he wakes up.

Leave.

EMERGENCY

Help, please!

Help!

Sir...

Can you tell me what happened?

I don't know.

-Do you know this young woman? -No. No...

She was an activist at the press conference, right?

-Yes. -Were you there?

-Do you know her name? -No.

I found her like that in the parking lot and...

She wasn't responsive, she was in a daze.

I'm an investigating judge.

I'd like you to propose a rape kit

as soon as the victim comes around.

-Of course. -Thanks a lot.

Did you find her in the PLF parking lot?

Yeah...

You didn't call the police?

I tried, but there was no signal.

I didn't want to leave her, so I brought her here.

-Did you see anybody? An attacker? -No.

Very well.

I'm sorry, you'll have to stay a little longer.

The police will take your statements, OK?

It's procedure.

-OK. -Are you going to be OK?

-Do you want me to call someone? -No, I'll be fine.

Very well.

Yes, Van Bocksel?

I'm dealing with a crime at the hospital.

Yes, I'm on duty.

Mr. van Dyck?

Can you tell me what you saw?

Let them out!

Calm down, their detention is only temporary.

This is a free country! We have a right to protest.

Calm down or you're next.

-Fascist. -Excuse me?

Nothing.

Ludi, where are you?

Did you get home? Call me back.

I'm at the police station. The girls got arrested.

I'm waiting for them. Call me ASAP.

Turn that down.

People are sleeping.

Where did this come from?

Mark?

I didn't know what to do.

Did you film this?

What could I do? There were five of them.

-Beat them up? -Calm down.

Calm down. It's fine.

I did this to help her. To show the police.

-Did you show it to the police? -No.

I brought the girl to the hospital.

She was completely...

traumatized. Totally silent.

They asked me questions and I didn't know...

I told them I found her like that.

-You didn't mention the rape? -To say what?

That I watched her get raped?

-That I didn't step in out of fear? -Pull yourself together.

Pull yourself together.

They would've looked at me the way you are.

-Like a coward. -That's not how I see you.

They were talking to me as if I was brave,

as if I was a savior.

What was I supposed to say?

I think I have an idea.

-Coffee? -Thanks.

It's from the fast-food joint.

Beggars can't be choosers at this hour.

Sorry for getting you out of bed.

I wasn't sleeping, I was revising contract law.

-Not exactly exciting. -Your Honor.

Captain.

-No security cameras. -In the whole parking lot?

They are changing the whole security system.

Shit.

-Do you need a warrant for DNA? -They're coming.

-Samuel? -Sorry, there's no signal down here.

What about an escape route?

There's a camera at the entrance of the parking lot.

This level has been closed for months.

Who else uses the parking lot aside from the PLF Party?

All the buildings on the block have access to it.

There are four of them:

a vocational school,

unemployment offices and other offices.

OK. Any witnesses?

Not for now.

The other activists were picked up.

Question them once they're out.

-Are you OK? -Yes, I'm OK.

Claire!

Come take a look.

It's all over social media.

I asked you to turn that down.

Are you OK?

Have the Computer Crime Unit run facial recognition

and call for witnesses.

And intercept this video ASAP.

I want to know who posted it and from where.

OK.

Something horrible has just happened.

I have no words. It's inhumane.

Tonight, a girl was raped

and her fucking rapists filmed it

and posted the video online.

This girl is an activist

fighting for the liberation of her sister

who's been wrongly locked up in Saudi Arabia.

She's a fucking warrior,

she's my friend

and right now, I don't even know if she's alive

or dead.

I don't actually know what to do.

All I can do is shout, I can't stay quiet.

Silence allows things like this to continue.

I'm in front of the police station

where the other activists are locked up...

meanwhile, rapists are at large.

I don't get it.

The police are telling me: "We're on it."

But the truth is they're in way over their heads.

Why do some men think they can commit these atrocities?

Is it because her breasts were exposed is that it?

Because she's committed to a cause? Because she has convictions?

because she's a fucking warrior, you had to subdue her?

Or is it because some men think they have a right to rape?

When will this end?

When will this fucking end?

The culprit is our society.

Our whole society fuels this culture of toxic patriarchy.

You're the culprits, you, who whistle at girls on the street,

you, who insult them for not behaving the way you want them to,

you, who pin down a girl while your friend's raping her,

you, who stand by, you, who film it.

You're the culprit!

Have a great day. Goodbye.

Thank you, Pascal. We'll get back with a more compete update.

Let's now move on to politics.

Today, we have Georges Michelet, President of the PLF,

and Mark Van Dyck, also a PLF MP at the federal parliament.

-Good morning. -Good morning.

I'm listening.

We have the number of the phone that filmed it.

-And? -Brace yourself.

Those bastards filmed it from the victim's phone.

Did you locate it?

It's not possible right now.

-It's switched off or destroyed. -Shit.

I asked for further tracing.

-That will give us more info. -OK.

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

Hello.

Hello.

Claire Delval, investigating judge. I'm on your daughter's case.

I'm so sorry.

Thank you.

Did you speak to the doctors?

They're keeping her under observation.

When she came to she was very disoriented.

She doesn't remember everything.

We're working hard to find the culprits.

Thank you.

Bye.

Let's go back chronologically.

Yesterday, the event was disrupted by activists,

but this was unrelated to your former top candidate...

That's right. They're calling for filmmaker Rachel Gilson to be freed,

which Secretary of State Alain Montoyer is working on relentlessly.

After the demonstration yesterday, a violent sexual assault.

One of the activists

was raped in a parking lot adjacent to your party's building.

Apparently, Mr. Van Dyck, you're the person who helped her.

Yes, I did what anyone would have done.

The rape was filmed and circulated all over social media,

probably by the rapists themselves.

To be honest with you,

I'm shocked, it's despicable.

Bragging about your crime

is savage.

But unfortunately, this is no isolated tragedy.

Let's not forget that today, in this country,

being a woman means not being safe.

This assault and video have prompted reactions from politicians.

MP Franz De Praat from Vlaams Unie spoke out on Twitter.

He says this assault is due to, and I quote:

"the government's cowardice when it comes to immigration."

What do you make of that reaction?

It's easy to be critical.

I can assure you for security matters,

the government is actively working on concrete solutions.

Let's not beat around the bush.

Yes, the government has been naive and made mistakes.

Yes, it is cowardly

because it's scared to introduce a firm and strict immigration policy

to ensure the safety of its citizens.

That's what the country needs.

So, you're siding with the Vlaams Unie on this?

-Not exactly... -That's not our party line.

Is immigration a point of contention inside your party?

Absolutely not. We've always had a clear line on immigration

and we're all on the same page.

A topic you haven't cleared up are your party's corruption allegations.

You've remained very quiet on this topic.

Rather than talk about corruption, just let justice run its course.

The rumor mill goes into overdrive during elections.

What do you say to these allegations?

Morality should start from the very top.

It has to come from the top.

On my part, I commit to transparency.

Is that a way of saying you're making a move?

The top candidate spot has opened up, are you after it?

It's not for me to reveal the new list,

that's my president's job.

You've created a buzz.

Everyone wants to interview you.

Would you see yourself as top candidate?

Me?

I'm a believer.

I believe corruption has to stop.

I believe the days of grand promises and big speeches are over.

Things have to change.

Things can change and they're going to change.
