David!

Hey!

Damn it.

I need a doctor!

Yes. Put him on his back.

Max!

He's over there.

Max!

I'm here.

Are you okay?

-Are you all right? -Yes, I'm fine.

Hey.

-Is everything okay? -I'm fine, I swear.

David?

Are you okay?

Don't stop, damn it. Keep going.

ELITE FORCE

Kilometer 675, police at 652.

They were attacked for the first time on their own doorstep,

in their own home, one could say,

as most of the personnel live

just a few minutes' walk from the blast site.

No official statement has been made so far.

According to our sources,

a member of the GIGN was seriously injured.

I don't know. No news.

We don't have any leads right now.

We swept the whole area. There are no other devices. It was CL20.

It's linked to yesterday's operation, part of the missing 500 kilos.

Remote trigger?

It was set off when the door opened, with a timer.

Low-tech, but effective.

Christophe was the target.

Yeah.

It's procedure, General. You have no choice.

They attacked us at home, on our doorstep.

The General's here?

Inspection.

Commander Saint-Juste.

Saint-Juste.

IGGN.

Isn't she the one who got the Airborne general canned?

-Yes. -What's she doing here?

I don't know. She's convinced we think we're above the law.

It's the first time in GIGN history this has happened.

I'm not leaving it to RAID.

We all want to know what happened. Especially me.

And if you want my opinion, that chick is a shark.

General.

-Well, Chloé? -Yes?

What?

What do you mean, "What?" Do we have anything? A suspect?

Yes, the terrorist from the refrigerated truck.

We IDed the guy in the cap from his tattoo.

On the right?

Yeah, it turns out he's a former soldier. We're trying to locate him.

It's crazy that they attacked us here. On our turf.

And on graduation night.

What was Christophe going to say before the explosion?

I was always told my father died on a mission that went wrong.

Think there's more to it?

I don't know.

Did you check the after-action review?

Now that you're in GIGN, you have access to the AARs.

Hey.

-You okay? -Yeah.

Take Nolan to your parents' house, okay?

-This is our home. -Sibylle, listen.

I know this sucks, okay?

I'm not going anywhere.

I'm staying here.

Nolan, buddy, come here. It's time to go home. Come on.

You're not coming with us?

No, you're going with Mommy. Daddy has to work.

Take your scooter. Don't leave the house, okay?

Will we be on the next operation to catch these bastards?

You only just learned to walk, and you want to run already?

Well, rookies. You made it. Well done.

Welcome to your new religion. Congratulations.

This won't be complicated. Observe me, follow me.

Imitate me, even. That's it. I don't need to spell it out for you.

In your new religion, is humility one of the Ten Commandments?

Shouldn't you be with your Intel buddies anyway?

This is Tactical.

Three guys have the target in sight.

We have two guys at two exits, there's a third we need to check.

Well, guys, our friends from Intel have located one of the CL20 robbers.

The explosive used in the parking lot.

His tattoo gave him away.

He has an extensive criminal record.

He's a former soldier who went rogue.

He'll lead us back to the person who ordered the operation,

and ultimately, the attack on Christophe.

The general has given us the green light, but we must be careful.

He's armed, on alert, and won't hesitate to engage.

Assuming command of the operation is David,

and Section 3 is backing us up, led by Arnaud.

We have Section 3 and Intel with us on this mission.

We all know what he did to Christophe.

We won't forget.

But stay calm.

Okay? Don't go overboard. This isn't a revenge mission.

Let's do this properly. We take the guy and leave.

Plus, it's an urban area, so be careful.

We'll be on the same channel as Intel.

They'll be updating us over the radio, so listen.

I'll lead the convoy. We'll form it in front of the station.

The last one out announces it. That's the signal to go. Is that clear?

Okay. We have five new graduates with us.

Nice work, guys. You're part of the team now.

But you're still a bit green, so, especially for this mission,

I want you to stick with your mentors.

Is that clear?

-Yes. -To the cars.

Let's go.

Come on, let's go!

No, you stay here.

What?

You were in the explosion. I'm not taking any risks.

Go get checked out, we'll talk after.

Rapha was in the explosion, but she's going.

I didn't find Rapha lying on the ground, unconscious.

Chloé can handle her team. Go see the doctor.

No visual.

According to our intel, the target is still there.

What's the holdup? It's been three hours.

A man opened a window in the target's apartment.

Is it the target?

Who said that? Was it Max?

Is it the target?

There is someone in the apartment.

Identity not yet confirmed.

I repeat, was it Max who just spoke?

Affirmative on Max.

Negative on the target.

I repeat, negative. It's not the target.

Suspicious individual, black raincoat, black cap.

He's going back to the depot, I'll follow.

No, Max!

Wait.

-Engage! -Go!

Come on!

-Rapha, are you okay? -Yeah.

Max! Wait!

Stop!

Police!

Backup!

Max!

Max, answer me!

Go.

Police!

Police!

-Clear. -It's clear.

Clear here.

Max's Glock and a blade are on the ground.

Code 652-37.

Max's weapon recovered.

Form a line behind me.

Shields approaching.

Search!

Clear.

On the ground! Hands up!

-On the ground! -Hands up!

On the ground!

-On the ground! -Stop moving!

-On the ground! -Stay still, damn it!

-Give me your hand. Calm down! -The zip tie!

There, it's over. Stop.

-You okay? -Yeah, I'm okay.

You're not hurt?

Why didn't you answer when you were called?

I was too close to the suspect.

Since when do you follow a guy while unarmed? Since when?

Did you learn nothing during your training?

Are you out of your mind?

Did we arrest the guy or not?

Next time I tell you to stay at base, you stay there.

What's wrong?

Listen.

Next time you plan on bringing someone from my section,

speak to me first, okay?

I told him to stay at base and see the doctor.

-The doctor? -Yes.

We always take new guys on missions without permission,

especially you.

Max only just graduated.

Is it smart to put him on a 55 on his first mission?

You took the others on the assault,

but Max can't stand watch in plain clothes?

Run your section your way, I'll run mine my way.

We caught the terrorist thanks to Max.

Yeah, right.

What's your problem?

I'd like to see this.

This too.

-We need to check these schedules. -And this too.

Major Bonenfant.

Commander Saint-Juste, IGGN.

Lieutenant Neuly.

-Hello. -Major.

Who hired you?

Think you're tough, huh? Thirty against one,

in that pathetic little uniform.

Yeah. Who hired you?

Just like that other guy, your buddy,

before 30 of you showed up like sheep.

That guy.

I'll take him out.

Oh, yeah? You'll take him out?

Look at me.

The only reason you're still alive is because we have rules.

You know that, you're ex-military.

But I have bad news for you.

I don't play by the same rules as my colleagues.

If you don't talk,

I promise you, I'll enjoy taking care of you myself.

How long do you think you'll last?

Are you going to talk?

-What are you doing? -Let go of me!

Cover your eyes. Get out!

Let go!

Calm down.

Are you already there?

Is he awake?

I'll see you at the hospital, I have to go.

Commander Saint-Juste.

IGGN.

I know who you are, I know what you do.

I know you think I'm a pain, but I'm here for your own good.

Okay.

Thank you.

Your job is intervention.

Not investigation.

And certainly not intimidating suspects.

If your testosterone gets in the way of procedure,

you'll need to find another career, Commander.

-There he is. -How's it going, pretty boy?

-You okay, Rapha? -Yeah.

You'd have been perfect for Intel.

I'm not sure I scored many points with David though.

You chose to follow the terrorist, so you need to own it.

Why were you with them?

They needed me.

I wasn't going to stay put and watch the adults work.

Look at him, he's getting cocky.

Good thing I didn't wait.

He's always been bigheaded. It's nothing new.

Bastard.

I'm looking for the intensive care unit.

-On the left. -Thanks.

Sir, can I help you?

Okay.

So, how is he?

They've put him in an induced coma.

They say the next 24 hours will be critical.

How are you?

Not great, actually. Not great.

I called Manon this morning.

I told her it might be a good idea for us to see each other a bit more.

So, I'm having lunch with her tomorrow.

And…

maybe if you're free tomorrow,

you could join us?

So we could all be together.

I don't know, David. We can't pretend everything's normal between us.

I'm moving to Singapore. We have to tell her at some point.

There's no rush.

We have time.

Yes, but she has to decide what she wants to do too.

What exactly does she have to decide?

Her life is here, she can't move halfway across the world

because you decided to go.

But we can ask her what she thinks.

Is it urgent? Do we have to do it right now?

No.

Sorry.

No, I'm sorry.

I've been so on edge lately.

It feels good to be with you.

Aren't you going to see him?

I don't have a choice.

I'm glad you're here.

Hey.

It's your dad. You know him.

You know he never gives up.

Yeah.

So you know he'll wake up.

Yes.

-Do you want to get a coffee? -Sure. Let's go.

Did you catch the guy who did this to him?

We're on it.

It's just a matter of time.

No trace of CL20 was found in the tattooed ex-soldier's apartment.

But overnight, he provided the judge with the name of the mastermind.

Francis Kröller, a European arms dealer.

Going after the unit commander is a big risk for a guy like him.

I agree with you.

We don't know his motive, maybe it's personal.

What's certain is that he's behind the robbery

and likely in possession of the CL20.

Section Three, you're on standby. Handle incoming.

Section Two, you're off duty, but I want you on Kröller.

Intel has a lead, so be ready to move.

Excuse me. I think Section One should go.

You've been on standby all week and just got back from an op.

Indeed, General, but we've already dealt with CL20,

and we're used to working with Tanya.

Kröller's in business, not operations.

He's not hiding with his stash of CL20.

-Last I checked, you were in Intel. -Yeah.

It'd be a good idea for you to stay in your place

and let the Tactical Force handle this.

Okay. You want to catch him, is that it?

No, you don't understand.

I can't speak for Éric and Arnaud, but we all want to get him.

Is that a problem?

-Your team is tired. -Please.

-We're all under pressure. -It's about the teams!

Section One will handle the Kröller case. Understood?

Let's go.

Are you happy now?

Such a pain in the ass.

General!

I need to talk to you about Max Villiers. You know, Laurent's son?

-A new recruit. -Yes.

I have a real problem with him.

Technically, everything's fine, that's not the issue.

It's his attitude. And behavior.

He's an arrogant young man.

And he's cocky. He has a problem with authority.

-Thinks he's better than everyone. -You're all like that.

General, he disobeyed a direct order on his first mission.

What do you suggest?

I think we made a mistake in selecting him.

He doesn't belong in the GIGN.

The reasons you're giving are a little light to go that far.

Personally, I'm against it.

But it's your section, your decision.

The trust-shot drill is tomorrow. It's a key moment for new recruits.

Make your decision before then.

Afterward, he'll be one of us, whether you like it or not. Okay?

-Fine. -But, Commander…

Don't let your emotions drive your actions.

Listen, General. He may be Laurent's son and I, his mentor, but--

No, I'm talking about yesterday's incident. After the arrest.

-Okay. -Good.

Excuse me, where's the piano auditorium?

The auditorium is down the hall. On the left.

Thank you very much.

No, don't stop. Play the whole thing. Go on.

I can't do it.

Why not? Have you ever wondered why?

It's too fast.

You can't do it because you haven't practiced enough, Manon. That's why.

All right, lunch break.

What was the problem earlier with the piece?

Is it too hard, or have you not practiced enough?

The problem is that I don't know if I should stop working on it altogether.

What do you mean?

-Nothing. -Come on, tell me.

Why are you having lunch with me?

You never usually do.

I wanted to see you, that's all.

-That's all? -Yeah, that's all.

-Okay. -"Okay," what?

What does that mean?

-You don't want to talk about it. -Well…

I do, tell me.

Are you and Mom splitting up?

Are you serious?

Fine, so you're not splitting up.

What kind of nonsense is that?

So you're going to Singapore too?

Yeah, Mom isn't as discreet as she'd like to be.

What do you want to tell me? Do you want to go with her?

It's not that I want to go to Singapore, but the world's top conservatory is there.

-I don't know if I should stick with it… -Manon, don't worry. I understand.

You're gonna leave.

What I'd like is to talk to my dad.

He took a really difficult test, he knows about perseverance,

he's not afraid to question himself.

I'd like to talk to him without him thinking I'm choosing Mom.

I understand. I'm sorry. Forgive me.

What does the piano mean to you?

I…

Is it just a nice instrument to play,

or from when you wake up to when you go to sleep,

all you can think about is playing?

Playing.

-Really? -Yeah.

It's your passion?

Yes.

Listen carefully, I'll only say this once.

Okay.

And I hope I don't regret it.

Don't ever let anything or anyone stand in your way, okay?

Your passion makes all the difference.

Because of that, when the others are tired or fed up,

you'll still be at the piano,

working on your craft.

That's what builds excellence.

It means that no matter how few spots there are,

in the end, you'll earn yours.

So if the best school really is in Singapore,

then you have to go to Singapore.

Don't let anyone make you doubt that. Not even your asshole of a father.

Come in.

Welcome.

-It's cool, right? -Totally.

I'm going to repaint this,

and redo all the plaster, fill in the cracks.

And I'll put a shelf there.

Where?

There.

Good idea, right?

Yeah, cool.

You're good at this.

If we're going to be here for 15 years, it might as well look nice.

Hey, what's with the sad puppy face?

Nothing, I just feel like nobody wants me here.

Hey.

We made it, right? Let's enjoy it a little.

I'll see you later, okay?

Okay.

-Do you know where David is? -I saw him in the garage.

Hey!

I'm going to visit Christophe at the hospital. Do you need anything?

I'll come with you.

No. I'm going alone.

Do I belong here?

You're the only one who didn't congratulate me.

Cédric and the others all congratulated me.

Well done.

Okay, I went too far, but did we catch him or not?

We caught him.

Do you have a problem with me?

Tell me.

You know,

I wasn't mad at you when you stopped visiting after Dad died.

I thought, "He's busy. He's a hero like Dad."

"One day, I'll be in the GIGN with him."

Then Mom explained why you weren't around.

Seeing me brought back too many memories of Dad.

It's not my fault he died.

The GIGN is my dream. I earned my place here.

I'm a soldier, just like you.

The trust-shot drill is tomorrow. I'll be there.

I hope you will too.

CREW

DIED IN THE LINE OF DUTY FEBRUARY 10, 2010

The trust-shot drill is not a routine shot.

It's a pact

between a mentor and their mentee.

Graduation was for your loved ones and the institution.

The trust-shot drill is for us.

And only us.

It proves that your mentors have absolute trust in you.

And it proves that you deserve it.

This shot officially marks your entry into the GIGN family.

David!

David!

They've located Kröller. Let's go.

What's going on?

Police!

On the ground! Don't resist.

Let go of me!

Do not resist.

Move forward. Secure the rear.

The kids! Let me go!

Let me go!

He has a weapon.

I've got this.

Julián!

Everything's fine. Give me what's in your hand.

Give me what's in your hand.

You're Julián?

Is that right?

I'm Cédric.

I'm a gendarme, Julián. Okay?

Liar!

It's okay. You don't need that.

You're going to kill my dad!

You'll kill my dad!

No, we won't kill anyone. Everyone's fine.

Your family is safe and sound.

Give me what's in your hand, Julián. Give me what's in your hand.

Please, damn it. Drop the gun.

Come on, give me what's in your hand.

We won't kill anyone.

Julián, cooperate!

Are you okay, sweetie?

Easy now.

Come on, give it to me.

That's it.

That's it.

Easy does it. Everything's fine.

Get up, let's go see your mother and your brother, okay? Are you coming?

Wait! We can work something out.

Go ahead, I'm listening.

The bomb at the GIGN. I know who did it.

Of course.

You're gonna say it wasn't you?

I'm a businessman. Why would I do that?

You sold the CL20 to someone, is that it?

The guy.

We made a deal.

He knew where to find the CL20. I provided the men.

After, we'd split the explosives.

He kept it all for himself. My men betrayed me.

That bastard screwed me over.

I understand.

He screwed you over.

Who is this guy?

Who are we talking about? Where can I find him?

Listen.

Let's make a deal, you and me. Right now.

If you let us go, I'll tell you where he is.

David!

What are you doing? You're losing control.

I'm not losing control.

Want to take a breather and let us handle this?

Djibril.

Can you take care of him?

-In the back of the Cayenne. -Yeah.

Thanks.

We'll escort him to the gendarme securing the perimeter.

You and me, Max.

Today, not tomorrow.

Am I dreaming?

Stop right there.

You're driving.

Okay.

Speed up, Max. We're not sightseeing.

Fuck!

Drive!
