(Music)

I'll keep it.

Thank you.

What's up?

Gunshots at a wedding.

Two men down, including clergyman.

This is for us.

I know what you're trying to do.

I don't think that's a good idea.

A crime with a criminal we can actually stop.

If it takes your mind off things.

The shooter was on the embankment 100 meters away.

Rifle?

Winchester. Here are the shells.

Two shots, one for the archbishop.

An archbishop for a wedding?

Uncle of the bride, Cécile Mazars.

From the Mazars group?

Yes, she's the heiress.

She weighs a lot.

We can't buy anything without giving her at least 50 euros.

Even my bike comes from them.

The second victim is the groom, Alain Vidal, son of a major industrialist.

Guests film it all.

I don't have the heart to watch.

You'd better go home.

I'd rather stay.

You're going to make me a guest list.

They couldn't have been behind the rifle.

I want to know who didn't come to the wedding.

What do I do?

You're going to help him.

Here, Auntie.

It's going to be all right.

Eric, take care of Aunt Liliane.

Now.

A third cousin.

We're a close-knit family and I'm responsible for that.

The first shot hit Monseigneur Mazars.

There was a second shot.

So the killer missed.

It wasn't your uncle who was targeted.

Was it Alain?

Your husband interfered.

You were the target, Mrs. Vidal.

Mrs. Mazars.

I'm keeping my last name.

It doesn't make sense.

I'm sorry about that.

Do you have many enemies?

The best way to kill yourself is in the family.

And a publicly traded family...

The group is not listed.

My mother objected.

She died in December.

No matter the money, the loss of a loved one always causes the same pain.

Have you lost someone?

A rich heiress.

Who would want you out of the family picture?

Jean-Claude Mazars, your uncle?

Invited, but not present.

I haven't seen him since Mom's funeral.

No, no, not Jean-Claude.

Where can we find him?

I have a picture of myself here at eight years old.

Cowboy hat, fringed jacket, primer pistol.

I had the whole kit.

He loved Westerns.

Moretti loved westerns.

This amusement park now belongs to the Mazars group.

I've seen some great shows here.

Actors would fall off the saloon roof and get back up.

When you see that at eight years old, you think there's no such thing as death.

Hey, you!

I'll go to court...

Let go of me!

I'm going to unpack everything!

Sylvie...

It's normal for her to worry. We keep this park alive!

We want to keep everyone alive.

Police.

We're not even on strike and you've already called the cops?

The manager's going to lay people off.

Where is Jean-Claude Mazars?

Are you family?

She's his cousin, but we're not going to fire her, she's safe.

You're talking nonsense.

I'm not?

The Mazars protect each other,

they keep the best jobs for themselves and we can die.

Unless they kill each other first.

Is that Jean-Claude Mazars?

Yes, I heard.

Thank you for your confidence.

See you soon, Chief Inspector.

Information on Jean-Claude Mazars.

Martine Mazars spent the morning in the park.

Thank you, Tina.

I didn't do it!

I haven't spoken to Cécile in weeks.

I gave my gun to the park two years ago.

There's more.

Say something, damn it!

And stop looking at me like that.

In three days, you've called each other 20 times.

Cecile is lying and so are you.

We've settled some professional matters.

There's a restructuring at the park.

But no personal contact, I mean.

Do you have a cigarette?

I beg your pardon?

Cigarette.

Yes.

What are we doing now?

You could have gone to her house, called her, told her to come alone,

waiting for her.

A duel...

face to face.

Fair and square.

That's how it is in Westerns, who shoots first.

You're a sick man.

We're losing him.

Instead, you shoot into the crowd,

hiding behind a rifle, in the middle of a wedding.

Cain, with me.

You shouldn't have taken this case.

You're not in it. None of us are operational.

You wanted to weld the team together, but you're not a superman.

Jean-Claude Mazars is riddled with debt. His fleet is poorly managed.

Cécile Mazars refuses to help him. We have a motive.

We need to find the gun and break him.

You didn't tell him.

You won't make it on your own.

Here, let me help you.

Why did we come here?

Waiting to appoint Moretti's successor,

I've been asked to act as interim manager.

It should be you.

No, you're stronger than I am.

Fred.

I'm glad it's you.

It's better than a guy parachuted in from Paris.

And you deserve it.

I wanted to drop the case, but the divisional officer refused.

We have to go through with it.

Then we go on.

You can count on me, boss.

How's Alain?

The bullet perforated the lung.

The doctors have put him into an induced coma, but they are confident.

How touching!

Do sit down.

You may be talking to the man who fired the shot.

He's innocent, you're wrong.

After you, he's the next heir to the Mazars empire.

Did you know he needed money?

You refused to bail out the amusement park.

He was going to sell the park.

That's reason enough to be angry with you.

Yes, I threatened to sell.

It was a bluff.

He would never have squandered the family capital.

I'm a bad manager, I admit it.

Fortunately, Cécile is there to lecture me.

The royal line!

We tried to kill the queen of the hive.

There's no settling of scores in our family.

Or with blanks, just for the pleasure of the spectators.

One Mazars would never attack another.

Having a good time?

Actually, I'm not.

I'm even disappointed.

I was hoping for a “Duel in the Sun” confrontation.

You have nothing against Jean-Claude.

Set him free.

Mazars don't make the rules here.

Who's your superior?

I'm your superior.

I'm not the law.

My lawyer takes care of that for me.

I'll make it available to Jean-Claude, if necessary.

I didn't direct the police at you.

That must have been painful, I'm sorry.

If tomorrow I haven't received the transfer you promised me,

you'll have a real reason to be sorry.

Lucie is going to take over at SRPJ.

I'll need you in the field with me.

If I'd arrived earlier, Jacques would still be alive.

If I had stopped Valériant,

if we hadn't done all that crap seven years ago...

With “ifs”, we're all guilty.

The real culprit is dead and has taken Jacques with him.

We were about to get married.

It was a beautiful dream.

Can you sleep at night?

I don't even know how I'm holding up.

I'm holding on because of this.

Two in the evening is radical.

Thanks, but...

Natural.

Take this too.

It gives you a boost during the day.

We'll need it.

(Music)

Excuse me, please.

She'll get used to it.

I doubt it.

Death around 2 a.m.

Bullet passed under chin.

Powder on fingers.

No evidence of suicide.

No reason to be sure either.

Lieutenant Delambre is in charge of keeping you on a leash from now on.

I'm a willing victim, unlike our corpse.

The bullet that killed Moretti is still doing damage.

Take care, Cain. We've all been through a lot.

We'll soon know if it was the gun that killed the archbishop.

If so, there's no doubt.

He felt the noose tighten and bang!

What do you think?

I can't see him getting away with killing himself like that.

Why do you insist on making everything so complicated?

I like things complicated.

You can't do it over again.

Complicating the world won't make you forget your pain, believe me.

I've been there.

What do you see over there?

Thank you.

Hello everyone, thank you for coming.

It wasn't easy for some, if not all.

After this dramatic event,

there's no question of selling.

I'd like to reassure everyone about this.

As the new manager,

the company's accounts.

So there will be a few layoffs, but I'll do things differently than my predecessor.

You will be received one by one, regardless of Jean-Claude's decisions.

What are you going to base your decision on?

Very simple.

You'll make four rows.

The first, royal bloodlines, guaranteed CDI.

After the Mazars, third and second degrees.

CDD to be negotiated.

Next come the “in-laws”.

Now it's time to get out of the way.

Those who aren't family can leave right now.

Just kidding.

There's no need for these family legends.

I guarantee it.

As proof, I'm going to appoint one of you as manager.

Someone who has nothing to do with Mazars.

and whom you, like me, trust completely.

Eric Romans.

Yes !

Well done.

It was all over the place last week.

Even in front of my house.

Jean-Claude had asked for them to be removed.

The housework wasn't done properly.

You weren't worried?

The employees were on edge.

They were about to be fired.

But that's not the point.

Jean-Claude's suicide...

Doesn't it even bring a tear to your eye?

A real icicle.

I cried a lot when my mother died.

I have no more tears.

Your first reaction is to quickly turn the page

and organize a meeting with all the employees.

What did your parents do for a living?

My family has been in business for five generations.

I quickly learned about my responsibilities,

and managing means being responsive, making the right decisions quickly,

and not showing emotions.

Your nights don't have to be crazy.

Your uncle's suicide sounds like a confession.

So he's the one who opened fire at your wedding?

Yesterday, I was wrong.

He was angry with me.

He was.

My mother couldn't have children, but I came along.

For a long time, he thought he'd be the group's number 1 heir.

But...

Could he be that angry with me?

So that...

I don't have the manual.

But end of mystery.

I too have intrusive subordinates.

But we're not going to kill her, she's just starting out.

Mrs. Mazars, I hope we'll meet again for more pleasant exchanges.

You've been very efficient, Captain.

Thank you, Captain.

Thank you.

Subaltern!

You were perfect!

You should have seen it.

I wasn't invited.

See what?

Tina is pugnacious in interrogation.

I love it!

At least you don't miss me.

Is this a plot?

I've prepared some food for thought.

You've been busy.

No, I haven't had time.

I didn't think Moretti worked this hard.

No more suicides?

No, don't spoil my good impression by becoming naive.

For the captain, it's a rule: there's no such thing as suicide.

Unless the killer can prove it.

We have an attempted murder of Cécile Mazars,

two collateral victims, and the murder of Jean-Clause Mazars.

Something in common?

There was a price on their heads.

By whom?

Posters were put up in front of Cécile Mazars's house last week.

See if there are any surveillance cameras in the neighborhood.

Killers announcing their crimes on billboards...

We leave no stone unturned.

The Winchester is also the weapon of marriage.

They want us to close the case quickly.

Bring up the portrait of Eric Romans.

He got a great promotion.

Éric Romans, orphan raised in an institution, homeless at 20,

several arrests for drunkenness,

and finally, four months ago, he gets this job at the amusement park and settles down.

You've really worked hard!

Tina, go through the list of employees.

And you, Captain...

I'm going to take a rest.

And tomorrow, I'm going to have fun again.

If I were to play in a Western, what part would you see me in?

I thought the investigation was over.

It is.

I need to take my mind off things.

Getting you into a park show is impossible.

I'm just asking for a small role, an extra.

Just once.

You never answered me.

Have you lost a loved one too?

My best friend.

I'm sorry for your loss.

Nothing is more precious than a friend.

You're not that cold.

My mother always told me:

“Coldness is the first quality of a man destined to command.”

This is a quote from Napoleon.

Napoleon and his coldness, too little for me.

But cowboys and their guns...

I beg your pardon.

A childhood dream!

Yes. It's a great job.

You must be relieved.

Yesterday, ready to go to court, today, loyal friend of the new manager.

Friend or companion?

Companion.

What part do you want?

Cowboy, Indian, mortician, harmonica player, anything goes.

Legless ass.

I love his impertinence.

I would have preferred a composition role, but why not?

The best thing is to try it out.

That must have been quite a surprise

to find himself parachuted in at the head of the park

after only four months

and not even of royal lineage.

You must be proud of yourself, Eric.

Do you mind if I call you Eric?

Between acrobats.

Quite a promotion for a tenderfoot.

Eric created all the new shows.

Amazing!

We need soldiers like you.

You're going to streamline the company.

I want to limit layoffs and expand the fleet.

It's a losing battle.

But we'll fight to the end.

Remember the Alamo.

Cecile is confident.

And we're all behind him.

You've come a long way, when you think about it.

You're from the streets, a derelict,

forced to sleep in stables, beg for a few cents.

Who told you about that?

Orphaned by his white parents, raised in our tribe,

far from civilization.

How did big little brother end up in this reserve?

Thanks to Cécile.

She gave me a chance.

No one had ever trusted me before.

Jean-Claude's death is good for you.

I wonder if I shouldn't let you stew in a cell.

until the judge arrives.

After all, maybe you're the one who killed him.

I've got it.

How would you like to play a bad guy?

A Mexican who's about to be lynched in public in the hanging scene.

A composition role.

You're tied to a horse, the rope around your neck...

On the watchtower roof, I adjust my rifle,

I only need one bullet to free you.

- Are you a good shot? - A very good one.

I want a real bullet.

One shot. Only one.

My life is at the end of your gun.

You're not going to do that?

It's fun for me.

Let me amuse myself.

Kill yourself somewhere else!

Don't insist.

A real little boss.

Not with me, Lieutenant.

Commander.

Acting commander.

We don't know what Romans is worth.

Then we'll know.

I've got the surveillance tapes.

Poster guy?

Is this Sylvie Favre?

How did you know?

Easy.

She defended her job and her fiancé's tooth and nail.

These posters are just an insolent way of denouncing her bosses.

There's something else on the videos.

It was my job to announce it.

What's up?

Okay, I did them.

I wanted people to realize that we were hostages to the Mazars.

Why stop there?

You could have shot him and her.

No. No!

Not to save jobs, but for this.

These images were taken the night Jean-Claude Mazars died.

I'm sure we could have found the same ones the nights before.

That's not possible.

Eric would never do something like that to me.

It got him a promotion.

These images were taken at 1:30 in the morning.

So you were alone that night.

Half an hour later, Jean-Claude Mazars was murdered.

But...

why would I kill him? He had nothing to do with it.

What time did Eric get home?

And then what?

Eric is your lover.

He may have become very jealous when he saw you marrying someone else.

Especially better born than him.

Is that funny?

The idea that Eric is trying to kill me so as not to lose me is funny.

He looks self-effacing like that,

but since he was abandoned as a baby in the Hesperides home,

nihilism is like a life companion.

When you've been on the streets, like him, you don't expect anything from others.

And Jean-Claude's suicide?

He's blaming him.

He puts on a good show.

You think I'm naive enough

to have an affair with a man who wipes out every member of my family?

Let's imagine something else.

You seduce Eric into exterminating all the Mazars.

I prefer that.

I have a central role, at least.

But what's in it for me?

What do you suggest?

The simple pleasure of seeing them die.

You're not the type.

I've got it! How stupid we are!

Jean-Claude discovers your affair with Eric and blackmails you :

“You bail out the park or I'm going to see your husband.”

Eric kills him to defend you.

You've got it all wrong.

Except for one thing: my marriage is a marriage of interest.

You love money.

That sounds like you.

This marriage benefits both of you,

and each leads the love life he or she desires.

Nobody could blackmail us on that.

So Eric is no longer a suspect?

Eric is a good person.

He's the soul mate I've been waiting for.

What did you tell Sylvie?!

Oh, amigo.

Keep calm before you shoot.

You're unconscious!

Sylvie has left me!

You still have Cécile.

There's nothing between Cecile and me!

There's nothing but tenderness between us!

Now you're accusing me of murder?

Prove to me that you're a good shot and you're off the hook.

How's that?

At the wedding, the shooter missed twice.

The bullet will be real.

To the death!

Hang him! Hang him!

Nice of you to come.

How did you find me?

Irresponsible.

To prove what?

That if Eric's our shooter, we screwed up.

Did you realize that when he almost killed you?

Did you see that? He hit the nail on the head.

If he's guilty, Monseigneur wasn't killed by a stray bullet.

He was the target.

No Eric Romans in Monsignor Mazars' diary.

Sorry.

Who is this woman?

Her sister.

They were very close.

He received her in confession the day before he died.

The Lord's ways seem impenetrable.

Where's the key?

What are you looking for?

I only talk to the Good Lord.

Don't take it the wrong way.

Do you have the key?

I wouldn't want to damage it.

There you go.

Cécile.

Cécile.

Monseigneur took them off the wall a few months ago,

I don't know why.

Did you notice anything unusual in the days before his death?

Did he seem preoccupied?

Now that you mention it,

he wasn't sure he wanted to celebrate Cécile's marriage.

A hunch, perhaps.

Do you mind?

Eight days ago, he went to the Hesperides home.

Did he have to wear handcuffs?

Your shooting skills inspired me.

Now you're inspired to destroy other people's lives!

Monseigneur Mazars, did Cécile introduce you to him?

I didn't know him.

He knew you.

You and Lana, your twin sister.

Your parents abandoned you at the Hesperides home 40 years ago.

What happened to Lana?

We wanted to find her.

No trace of her adoption file.

I hope nothing's happened to him.

We're wasting our time.

Questioning Cécile Mazars won't do us any good.

She's unwavering.

If DNA analysis proves they're brother and sister,

we'll have enough to charge him.

By telling each other what?

That he sleeps with his sister before trying to kill her?

That he kills one uncle, the other, and becomes virtuous again?

Doesn't make sense.

Cecile is behind this?

She knows it's her brother.

She may have manipulated him to serve her own interests.

She didn't kill anyone.

That's what I'd like to know.

Is she capable of killing someone herself, coldly?

- I've got an idea. - No! Not one of your ideas!

Go for it!

I'm not amused anymore!

Why did you stop Eric?

He has no alibi for the wedding day.

He also left you half an hour before Jean-Claude died.

and he didn't go straight home.

We have every reason to believe he's involved.

What reasons?

He didn't have to be jealous of my husband.

Commandant, I'm with Mrs. Mazars.

I thought this case was closed.

Jean-Claude committed suicide because he was guilty.

Why deny the obvious?

Ms. Mazars, how did you meet Mr. Romans?

She recognized him as her soul mate.

He came to ask me for a job.

He says you contacted him.

I'm going to tell you something that's not very pleasant to hear.

Please, go ahead. I'm afraid I can't.

Eric is your twin.

You are his sister, Lana, adopted without anyone's knowledge.

by your mother 40 years ago at the Hesperides home.

She never told you?

You have to understand her.

In any other family, adoption wouldn't have been a problem.

But for the Mazars, the name is everything.

To have no heir is to tumble down the family ladder.

She only shared her secret in a deathbed confession.

with her brother, Monseigneur Mazars.

According to Mr. Romans, he talked to Jean-Claude, your uncle,

who promptly blackmailed him.

You're completely delirious.

I sympathize, it's hard to hear.

Eric got close to you

without wanting to tarnish your name or your respectability,

but circumstances and his difficulty in managing his emotions led him to kill,

twice.

Of course, there are still gaps in his story.

Sometimes he rambles on about how you knew and how he wanted to protect you.

But we know he'll talk.

Romans took Tina's gun and ran.

Stay there. Cain, come with me!

Go on home.

If Eric tries to reach you, call me immediately.

- But if... - No. He's already killed two men.

and wounded your husband.

Don't you want to be next?

My personal number.

Yes, please.

Please be careful.

She's gone.

Show me your list again.

“I must see you... In Italy...”

It'll never work.

Are you doubting me?

What was that?

An anti-terrorist exercise.

They make us do this now.

It's not like that in Rome.

Rome?

Yes, Rome, in...

Italy.

In Italy.

So you spoke?

I didn't say a word!

What's all this about?

Then we'll have to start all over again.

Where do you work?

You know where. At the OK Corral.

- Open from noon to... - Midnight.

Who runs this park?

I'm in charge.

What's that got to do with it?

There you go.

I think we've filled all the boxes.

Basically, I think you're out of your depth on this one.

You pulled the trigger, but the real culprit is Cécile.

She had nothing to do with it.

What's going to weigh most heavily on her in the end?

Her brother or the Mazars' money?

I'll let you think about it.

If I find the answer, I'll give it to you.

I wouldn't have lasted long at my post.

That's internal cooking. The prosecutor won't know a thing.

Jacques would have approved.

He would never have given the green light to such a twisted plan.

But we would have done it anyway.

It's done.

- Should I call her? - Yes.

Here we go.

Hello?

It's me.

I didn't say anything.

Eric, where are you? The police are looking for you.

Midnight, OK Corral Park.

But how did you escape?

It's not safe to see each other.

What's all this about?

OK.

I'll give you money, but you have to leave.

Italy. Rome.

Wherever you want, but don't let the police find you.

Midnight, in the park.

Borel, I'm going to need you again.

Are you good at stunts?

Eric?

Captain Cain!

Come quickly!

I should have listened to you. He wanted to meet.

I think I killed him.

I went as fast as I could.

Police!

Don't move! Put the gun down!

Drop the gun!

Borel...

Nassim?

Nassim!

Never again.

Eric?

You would have killed me.

After all I've done for you.

Take me with you. I don't want to stay with her.

Come away.

I never asked him anything.

That's what your lawyer will say.

But you've done worse.

You put Eric out of his misery,

you gave him a family and a job.

You let him believe in this fairy tale to better insinuate

that all this could suddenly end

if one day these two men revealed that you were brother and sister.

Eric was my only family.

I was raised that way.

I'm a Mazars.

You manipulated him to remain queen of the hive.

That's all that matters to you.

I couldn't give up.

I wish I had a brother like Eric.

and hated to have a sister like you.

Can I walk you home?

I've got my car.

No, I have a bus in three minutes.

I don't want to take your seat.

I know you're all trying to be nice.

Of course you are.

I won't say good night.

These are the longest hours.

See you tomorrow, Tina.

(music)

Aren't you drinking?

Do you mind?

Cain?

Did I wake you?

Wilcker.

We have a poker game to finish.

You don't want to put yourself (in danger).

It's a beautiful night.

One of the most beautiful of my life.

I wanted you to know first...

Gaëlle gave in.

Since that night, she's mine.
