COLT 38 SPECIAL SQUAD

- Marseillaise, give yourself up! - We know you're in there!

Come on, let's go around back...

Hurry up, for Christ's sake!

Go on, I'll cover you!

Shit...

You bastard!

- Fuck! - I can't open it, it's locked!

Don't shoot!

- Don't shoot! - We surrender!

Alright, hold your fire...

Fuck!

Damn!

Where are you going, traitor! Bang, bang!

Good, but tomorrow it's your turn to die, ok?

- Alright, see ya at the park! - Call Giovanni too, bye!

Mom!

Hey, what kind of manners are these?

Mom!

Inspector Vanni, it's for you, sir...

Hello?

You're a hero, Vanni...

...it's all over the news.

You killed my brother, but I've avenged him...

- Who are you? - I'm the Marseillaise...

...heroes can't afford the luxury of having a family.

POLICE HEADQUARTERS

- What happened? - They've killed Inspector Vanni's wife.

This world is going to hell...

Vanni!

Maybe you shouldn't go up there...

My son?!

My wife!

- Hurry up! - Upstairs!

Dad...

Mom's dead...

We salute our beloved sister in the hope of resurrection and life eternal...

...in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit... amen.

Let her rest in peace, O Lord... and may your eternal light shine on her.

- May she rest in peace, amen. - Amen...

Forgive me, Vanni... the Chief of Police wants to speak to you...

I'm shocked too, Vanni...

This is a shit job...

...I think I'm going to give it up, sir.

But we need men like you, you know?

Yes... if we were only able to fight them on the same level.

I'm giving you the Special Squad you asked for.

You have my word.

Now we're getting somewhere...

These are the .38 Specials you requested...

Use them with caution. You've been selected from among dozens of cops...

You'll have just a little extra freedom of action...

...nothing more than this.

This is an effective and safe gun, it never misfires...

...the exact contrary of what recently happened to Inspector Vanni's gun.

Today will be your first day of training.

They'll take orders only from you, Vanni...

...but you will be personally responsible for their actions.

Finally...

Did you hear him, guys? Your training begins today...

- What's goin' on? - It's a robbery, a fuckin' mess...

...a passer-by gave the alarm, now they're stuck in there.

- Who's inside with them? - Clerks and clients...

They want a car and are threatening a massacre. What now?!

Well... what can we do?

We can't let them kill the hostages...

Tell them that we accept their conditions.

This is Inspector Petrucci speaking...

...we only ask you to stay calm and not hurt the hostages.

I've received the order to accept your request, and put a car at your disposal.

We've made it!

I'll tell you when to come out of the bank...

...we'll allow you take one hostage...

...but you'll have to release him when you're safely out of the area...

...or when you're sure that no police car is following you.

Now give us time to clear the area of all police cars.

I ask only that you stay calm...

...it's in your own best interest to do so...

...and do not harm the hostages.

This is Inspector Petrucci speaking...

...you can come out now.

We made it!

Why are you crying? In a couple minutes we'll let you go...

Police, freeze!

- I'm unarmed! - Come out! Don't try any tricks!

Relax, it's all over now...

Get out and turn around, you son of a bitch!

Thank goodness...

...they only mention Petrucci, and the police in general.

- How's the girl doin'? - Nothing serious, she's already home.

- Meanwhile, I lost my car! - Don't worry, the state pays well...

...you'll buy a new one! - Why did you choose this job?

- For fun! - Alright, I'll ask for compensation...

Dream on... Anyway, I don't like your shooting.

But... sir, that guy had a machine gun!

That doesn't mean anything...

Your orders are to aim only for the legs.

Those are the moments where you have to keep your nerves steady...

...and aim carefully.

See ya tomorrow.

I'm coming with you, Vanni.

- Excuse me, do you have a light? - Sure!

Always at your service...

Come on guys, let's split without paying!

- Damn, this place sure is expensive! - That's why I'm not paying!

Paolo! That jerk is going to get himself caught!

Let's go, or they'll see our plate number!

Always last, eh?

Those guys are crazy?!

We ripped them off! Why don't we pass in front again!?

Yeah, what can they do to us?!

Look at those bikers!

Come on, show them what "driving" means!

They'll never catch us!

- Take care, Ciro, you're going too fast! - Shut up, wimp!

Be careful, one of them's gaining on us!

Watch this!

Stop!

You killed him! Stop the car, I want to get out!

I want to get out too!

He jumped in front of us, what could I do?

Those three are still on our ass!

Behave, asshole!

No, I didn't do anything! No, no!

You didn't do anything?!

Here we are... and don't try to steal my bike!

Fuck you!

OK, let's start again. What's the name of the one who was driving and got away?

- I only know his name's Ciro... - That's not much, don't you think?

I don't know, I only met him last night, I swear!

What about the money we found in the car?

5 million lire...

...did you find it on the ground? - I'd never been in that car before!

We want a lawyer...

You don't know anything, but you want a lawyer!

You're charged with the murder of officer Mazzucchelli.

I know...

...you want a lawyer.

- Vanni? - I swear, Inspector...

...we only met Ciro last night, he was the one driving...

...we didn't know the car was stolen, we're innocent!

Inspector! Please, sir!

This is a list of stuff that was stolen last week.

There are not many items worth all those millions.

This is the most interesting...

- They stole some dynamite? - At a highway construction site.

The guard says he saw the thieves in the face.

- Do you want him to come in? - Yes, sure.

Please, come in...

Tell us if you recognize them...

No, they're not the ones who stole the dynamite...

- What about him? - It's him! He's the one who hit me!

Alright, that's enough, thanks...

It's highly probable that our driver is involved in the dynamite theft.

- We must find him at all costs! - Alright...

Wait, I think I've already seen this guy somewhere...

- Where? - I can't remember where...

Oh, what a good cop you are!

Find me this Ciro, damn it!

Anything biting?

No way, they're too clever, by now...

- So why are you wasting your time? - It's good for my nerves...

You should try it too, Inspector...

What do you want from me, this time?

I heard that someone...

...needs some dynamite.

- Have you heard that too? - No...

You ought to be a little better informed...

...there's a load of about 70 kilos in circulation...

...and we don't know where it's going.

Well, with that much stuff, they could blow a tunnel through the Alps!

It's a pity, Stub, your help might've gained an amnesty for your daughter.

You got nothing to tell me?

Oh, yeah...

...I heard that someone was looking for some police uniforms...

...they were ready to pay good money.

- Go on... - Gianni the Hunchback told me about it.

They were looking for four uniforms...

Petrucci? It's me, Vanni...

Can you hear me? We've gotta find Gianni Peri, a.k. a The Hunchback.

Yeah, that's him. It's very important...

He sold four police uniforms to some guy...

...Stub tried to find out more, but he failed.

Seems that he was a foreigner. We've gotta hurry...

...take him to the station, give'em the third degree and make him talk!

Well... he might have some useful info...

Oh... Stub told me about some traffic going on in jail.

Check if there's news about a jailbreak or a prisoner transfer.

Halt!

The road's blocked, turn that way...

What's up?

Don't move, or I'll shoot!

Come on!

- Don't move! - Shoot him!

Wait for me!

Wait, you son of a bitch! Wait for me!

Close the door!

Who's the friend that chopped your fingers off?

[in French] I don't know...

- Who organized the getaway? - [in French] I don't know...

Who were the fake policemen?

I want their names.

I see...

...you don't know.

I'd like to show you something, Inspector.

The bullet shattered inside his leg. What kind of bullet was it? A dum-dum?

- Have you already reported it? - Yes, of course.

- Damn it... - I'm sorry?

- Nothing... - Now you're in deep shit, man!

Goddamn it, Vanni! I gave you everything you asked for!

I gave you "a modern weapon to fight a new crime wave"...

...that's what you asked me for, remember?

We can't use the same methods that criminals use!

We can't go around shooting with fragmentation bullets!

Thank God the press didn't find out...

...otherwise they would have destroyed us!

Remember this, Vanni...

...one more mistake...

...and I'll demote you to shit cleaners!

You will kiss the Special Team goodbye!

You're a bunch of assholes! Get lost!

- Nico! - Yes, sir?

Give me your gun.

Listen, if...

Go... we'll talk about it later.

The injured guy is a Marseillaise gang member.

Do you remember? You arrested him at the farmstead.

Gilbert Delanges... the French didn't even ask for his extradition.

What about this one?

An old acquaintance of ours, Guido Pugliese, a.k.a. The Blond.

You arrested him at the farmstead, but he recently escaped...

He's a Marseillaise gang member too.

If that day your gun hadn't misfired, your wife would still be alive.

And this is the Marseillaise.

He's back... that son of a bitch!

Marseillaise, I have good news. I spoke with Nistri in Turin...

...everything went fine, but we lost a man.

- Who? - Gilbert.

How did it happen?

On the phone, he just told me, "Guido left, but Gilbert went back home".

I don't give a fuck about Gilbert...

- Where did Guido hide? - At Sandra's place, of course.

Oh, alright. I'll call him.

- But... what if Gilbert squeals? - No, he can't.

He doesn't know anything... he has nothing to squeal.

Oh, I almost forgot... here's your new passport.

Fine.

After the plastic I have a new face and a new name, I can do anything...

- Good morning, Giovanni... - Good morning, ma'am.

Sandra...

Guido!

But... what happened?

They finally set me free...

Tell me...

Oh, a real bed!

You could have let me know!

I wanted to surprise you...

- Hello? - Is Guido there?

Yes, hold on...

- Hello? - Do you recognize my voice?

Oh, it's you... hi...

Well? I told you that I'd get you out, didn't I?

How does it feel to be free? Listen, I'll be in Turin tomorrow.

- Fine. - Send Sandra to Valentino's at 4 o'clock.

Yeah, perfect. See you...

Tomorrow, the Marseillaise will be in town...

- Would you do me a favor? - Uh-huh...

- Go get him. - Alright.

- Hi, Antoine. - Hi...

Hi, Marseillaise.

- So, let's see your masterpiece. - I worked on it all week.

It looks like a normal radio, but it's got a transmitter...

- Did you test it? - It works like a charm.

With this, you can get all the police radio transmissions...

It receives their wavelengths...

[RADIO TRANSMISSIONS IN FRENCH]

Very good. What's happening with Turin?

Don't worry, Antoine's thought of everything...

How does it work?

The frequencies are on the radio panel...

...turning this dial, you can receive the police stations in every city.

Clever, isn't it?

Using this microphone, you can talk with police HQ.

Why you'd want to talk with them, I don't know, but it's what you asked for.

- Fine. What about the other device? - Do you wanna try it?

- Sure. Just as a little precaution. - You already know how it works.

Drive out into traffic, and when you're far enough...

...flash the lights and light a cigarette.

- The contact's in the cigarette lighter. - Alright.

Let's go...

I've prepared thirty detonators like this one...

How are they activated?

They can be radio controlled from the car.

When Roland pushes the car's cigarette lighter, the detonator goes off.

Now, look...

Very good. That's exactly what I wanted.

Anyway... whatever happens... you and me don't know each other, alright?

Of course.

Lucia...

- Take care of table no.3. - Alright...

How is it I've never noticed you before?

I'm not here every night.

I guess I always choose the wrong nights.

Would you like to dance?

Do you always dance so close to your partner?

You know, the atmosphere here is so suggestive...

Well, thank you, I'm the club owner. I'm happy to know that you like it here.

So you should be nice to your customers.

It depends...

- Sorry, I have to go back to work, now. - Alright...

You look better without the moustache. Why the change?

Are you crazy?!

You know who you were dancing with?

I don't know, he's a customer...

- A customer?! - Are you jealous?

It's the first time I've ever seen him. Don't you believe me?

Don't you know that guy's a cop?

No... I had no idea...

What are you afraid of?

Hi, dear...

- Something to drink? - A scotch, please.

What a nice watch... it must be very expensive...

...who gave it to you?

- My brother. - Your brother must be a nice guy...

He told me his business is going well, so...

What's his name?

- Ciro. - Is he a jeweller?

No, he works in a clothes shop.

Lucia, why don't you come out with me tomorrow?

I'd like to meet your brother...

Why do you wanna meet him?

I'd like to do business with him... and if he's the right man...

...there'll be something for you too.

- Are you kidding me? - Not at all...

...and he won't have to work for a long time after.

Say, where's that nice girl I was dancing with?

Maybe she had stuff to do.

- Hi, Sandra. - I'm sorry?

- Don't you recognize me? - No...

- Do you think I've changed? - You're unrecognizable.

- Did you find a place for us? - Yes, an isolated villa.

Very good... I always told Guido that he's lucky to have a girl like you.

Are you happy?

About what?

About Guido being free...

I am, but... how many years will he get, next time?

No... he won't go in again, don't worry.

Anyway... in a few days we'll be in a different country...

...enjoying life. You can come with us, if you want.

Yeah... sure, I'll come.

- Hi, Marseillaise. - Hi...

- Hey, man! - How are you doing?

You see, Guido?

- We made it, didn't we? - The last six months have been hell!

Forget about it... I have great plans for us!

- I'm ready for anything. - Fine.

- Hi, Guido... - Hi.

Damn... we could blow up half ofTurin, with this...

Perfect.

Well, Nistri... this is for the getaway and the dynamite...

...though you shouldn't get paid for the getaway, since you screwed it up...

Since they unleashed Vanni and his team, working in Turin has gotten tough...

Vanni?

Yeah, him.

Vanni, the guy who killed your brother... remember him?

Yeah... but it's all in the past, Nistri.

Listen... I'm ready to pay any price...

...but I want everything to work perfectly. Got it?

Well, we did what you asked for...

Yeah... but there's been a leak, and I lost a man...

Yes, it's true, but... what are we gonna do about it?

First thing, I want you to find the rat.

Now!

Alright.

Watch this, guys...

- Strike! - What luck!

Hey, guys...

- Look at that chick! - Not bad, is she?

I sure wouldn't kick her out of bed...

Didn't he tell us he was busy with work?

- Yeah, that's what he told us... - Look at him!

What a worker!

I would gladly work her at his place!

Come on, let's go cover his back...

Sure, we'll pull the sheets up when he's got her in bed!

Maybe they should have called us "The Peeping Toms Squad"!

- Is this the place where he works? - You'll like my brother, he's a nice guy.

- Sure, if he looks like you... - He's very jealous, you know?

- Why, is he your brother or your lover? - Oh, come on...

- Hey... - Hey.

- Why are you here? - A friend of mine would like...

...to do business with you. - Yeah? Who is he?

My name's Nico.

Hi, Nico...

It's a nice shop. Is it yours?

I wish... I only work here.

You also deal in dynamite, don't you?

- What the fuck are you saying? - Well, to buy a watch like this...

...you need a lot of money...

Who are you?

Police.

I know what your business is... selling dynamite!

- Who did you sell it to? - I don't know...

Your brother killed a cop! You're the Ciro who was driving that car!

Your brother killed a cop! You're the Ciro who was driving that car!

You killed an officer! Where's the dynamite? Talk!

I'm gonna break your arm... talk!

Saro Nistri...

I don't have it anymore, I gave it to him!

Who's this Saro Nistri?

He works at the Cedri restaurant...

...he works at the Cedri restaurant!

Alright...

So, Stub, are you the rat?

No, I'm not!

I want to know who you tipped off!

I don't understand...

Don't lie to me...

Don't lie to me...

...talk!

Well?

- The Police... - Who?

Inspector Vanni...

Vanni?

Vanni is an old friend of ours...

Vanni is an old friend of ours...

Look, I don't care how much they paid you for your tip...

...but if you do what I tell you, you'll earn much more.

- What do you want me to do? - Not much. It's just a small favor...

A blond girl will come to you and say, "Hi, Stub"...

You'll give her this package, and she'll give you half a million. Alright?

You'll give her this package, and she'll give you half a million. Alright?

- Yes, sir. - Fine.

Let's go...

- See you later, Nistri. - Regards...

This is what's left of Gianni Luciano, a.k.a. Stub.

He had a bad record...

He had a bad record...

...bag-snatching, some thefts... lately, he kept a low profile...

...he dealt in stolen goods and tip-offs.

This is what we know about him.

He tipped me about the getaway...

Oh yeah, I remember, that must be why they killed him...

Oh yeah, I remember, that must be why they killed him...

Normally, they don't kill a poor devil because of a tip-off...

...especially in such a fashion! - Well, it wouldn't be the first time...

I arrested Ciro! And I tracked down the dynamite...

- Where it is? - At the Cedri restaurant...

Let's go! Petrucci, come with us...

Nico, come with us. Everyone else, block the exits.

- There's a gambling den in the back. - Oh, really?

Who's protecting it?

- I can't tell you... - Why?

- I can't tell you... - Why?

Because it's me...

Now I understand how you bought a new car!

- Do you want to leave your coat? - No, thanks.

- Atable, sir? - Yes, with a green tablecloth.

We're friends of the family, man...

We're friends of the family, man...

- Membership card, please. - Look, we only have the police one...

Don't make an ass of yourself, pal...

Hi, Nistri.

The games are suspended.

Why?

What do you want?

We want some dynamite.

Dynamite? I don't know anything about it.

You don't know anything? Alright, come with me...

Take him away...

- Police, don't move! - Search the place.

Everybody be quiet!

The police... what are we going to do? Oh, my God!

- Hey, don't move! - Nico!

You were right... we were too late.

But now... you tell me where the dynamite is...

What are you talking about? I don't know anything.

Then I'll put you in a cell.

What are you charging me with?

Well, it's simple...

Gambling.

Hello? This is Vanni...

- Who am I talking to? - This is just a small demonstration...

- Look outside your window, Inspector... - Who is this?!

- Look outside your window, Inspector... - Who is this?!

Come on, look outside...

- Alright, I'm looking... - See that 850?

Count to 5, Vanni...

One...

Two...

Three...

Three and a half...

Four...

Four and a half...

Five.

Son of a bitch!

This guy must be crazy!

Who could it be?

I'd say it's a crazy fucker with 70 kilos of dynamite!

Where's the dynamite?

- What dynamite? - I want to know who you gave it to!

Do you know the Marseillaise?

You know him, don't you?

You're scared...

If you release me, I'll give you two million lire...

Come on! Hit me harder! Leave some marks on me...

I'll see you in court!

If you try to bribe me again, I'll kill you, alright?

Are you happy?

Well, see you tomorrow...

Let's go, I'll take you to the car...

Sandra...

Do me a favor... put this in my safe-box at the station.

- Alright. - Thanks...

- This is the key. Box 37. - Ok...

- This is the key. Box 37. - Ok...

See you later...

- Bye, Roland... - Bye, dear.

See you tomorrow...

- Here's the station, Marseillaise. - We'll wait for Sandra to leave.

There she is... she just turned the corner.

Let's wait for a couple of minutes.

Here we are...

Turin...

...a violent explosion shook the central station.

A bomb placed in a safe-box...

...killed six people and injured dozens...

...three of them in serious condition.

There still are no suspects for this heinous crime...

...that has shocked the people ofTurin.

When questioned, the authorities remained silent.

We have reason to believe that they don't know...

...whether to follow the political terrorism trail...

...whether to follow the political terrorism trail...

...or investigate the trail that leads towards the act of a psychopath.

Oh God... mom...

Now that they know who they're dealing with, we can make our demands.

Don't push... don't push...

Stay back, please...

My leg! Please, help me!

My leg!

Help me!

...it's in the station hall, at the main entrance...

- How many casualties? - We don't know... it's a massacre!

Send all the ambulances and the police cars you've got...

Warn AVIS that we need blood for transfusions...

About half an hour earlier...

...Inspector Vanni received an anonymous call...

...almost an ultimatum. - No. It sounded more like a warning.

Our problem is not whether it was a warning or an ultimatum...

...the problem is, what do they want to obtain with these explosions?

Don't you think it could be a political attack?

I don't think so... the investigation led by Vanni and Petrucci...

...is leading us down a different trail.

...is leading us down a different trail.

- What investigation? - What do you mean?!

We informed you three days ago, I have the copies of the phonograms...

Why didn't you inform the press, other than the carabinieri...

We were investigating a dynamite theft and some murders...

...we've only now realized they're linked...

Sure, now that a massacre has taken place!

My men are hunting down that dynamite, 24 hours a day.

My men are hunting down that dynamite, 24 hours a day.

We could adopt some special measures...

...but first, we must know what they want...

...and how did they detonate the explosives.

Gentlemen...

...the explosives were detonated by high frequency radio control.

The capsule we found at the station...

...is a sophisticated transceiver.

- This means that... - That it's possible to use...

...a radio remote control to set off the dynamite. And it's impossible for us...

...to stop the signal, if we don't know its wavelength.

If they were using a powerful signal, we could stop it using a radiogoniometer.

You're right...

...unless they have a mobile medium power transmitter.

You mean, a transmitter mounted in a car?

You mean, a transmitter mounted in a car?

Exactly...

But we can't search 3 million cars...

Of course not.

We can't.

What decision has been taken, Inspector?

- Do you foresee other attacks? - I don't know what to say.

You found yourself unprepared, again...

Who's to be blamed this time, the communists or the fascists?

Who's to be blamed this time, the communists or the fascists?

- Nonsense... - You don't think it's political?

Should we write that you're about to catch them?

Or should we print the usual list of victims and then forget the case?

Add my wife's name to that list... maybe someone remembers her.

- Inspector, wait! - If you don't think it's political...

Turn off that radio, I can't stand it anymore...

Turn off that radio, I can't stand it anymore...

Everywhere I look, people are talking about it!

And it's all my fault! When I got to the scene, I saw all those dead bodies!

I killed them!

I'm responsible for all those deaths!

Oh, God, I can't think about it...

You don't have the right to use me like this!

Oh, my God!

I killed all those people!

I'm going to the police, I swear!

I'm...

You're not going anywhere.

So...

...you fooled me...

- You never told me the truth... - Mind your own business!

The less you know about it, the better.

My own business? I killed six people, and you say it's not my business?!

Are you crazy?!

Sandra!

Sandra!

Sandra...

Relax now... it's not your fault.

Sandra, I'm sorry...

I love you...

This is police HQ. The Chief of Police and Inspector Vanni are here now...

Now, listen carefully to what I say...

From now on, I want all the cards on the table...

The city is a minefield, and you don't know where the charges are.

That's the Marseillaise's voice!

I want five billion lire's worth of small cut diamonds.

Get them ready. I'll let you know where and when I want them delivered.

It's useless to say, that if I don't get the diamonds...

...this city will weep the most bitter of tears.

Vanni...

...many innocent lives are in jeopardy.

You were right, Vanni.

- He suspected it was the Marseillaise... - I'll kill him, I swear!

I almost forgot...

...I want Vanni out of this case, or you'll be sorry.

Son of a bitch!

Come with me, Vanni.

Try to understand, Vanni... You heard that guy, he's a psycho.

And between you and the Marseillaise there's some personal history...

...so I want you out of this. - Out of this?

What, you want to leave the city in this criminal's hands?

This isn't personal! This pig's a murderer, and he's gotta die!

That's why I'm going to give the task to Petrucci.

You're relieved from duty until this case is definitively closed.

Let's hope for the best...

Hi, Nico...

Come in.

Please, come in...

- Sit down. - Thanks.

Do you want something to drink?

- Awhiskey, maybe? - No, thank you.

What's the matter, Nico?

They told us that you've been relieved from duty...

Yes, it's true...

...but it's just temporary.

Now, Petrucci's our boss.

What about it?

Petrucci's a good cop.

He'll be a good boss.

Yeah, sure...

Did you want to tell me something?

Well, we started this case together, I want to talk about it with you...

Is there something new?

I have an idea.

- An idea? - Yeah.

Tell me about it...

The night club...

...do you remember the place where I met Ciro's sister?

- He was one of the dynamite thieves. - Yeah, I remember.

Well, I think that place should be the starting point.

- May I help you? - Did they call you from police HQ?

- Yes... - I have to watch over...

...the opposite building's main door. May I come in?

- Of course, come in... - Thanks...

I'm sorry to disturb you, ma'am, but this is very important...

No problem... would you like a cup of coffee?

No, thanks, don't worry...

You're a good photographer...

The registration plate is clearly visible...

There she is... that's Sandra.

Pretty, isn't she?

Yeah, not bad...

- She's the owner of the nightclub. - Did you get any info on her?

Of course... her record is clean.

Clean? If she's still clean, she must be good!

Hi, would you like something to drink?

A scotch, thank you.

- Isn't Lucia on? - No, she quit yesterday...

- Wow, in the flesh, she's even better. - What did I tell you?

One day, I'll marry her...

In the meantime, just offer her a dance.

Would you like to dance?

I'm sorry, but I have to check on something at the bar...

- I'm sorry, but she's already engaged. - With who?

Guido Pugliese, a.k.a. The Blond.

- From the Marseillaise's gang? - Yeah. Better to get lost, now.

You've gotta track down that taxi in the photo...

...as soon as possible.

It was Vanni... I'm sure.

I was close enough to recognize him.

I was lucky not to be seen...

It's too late, for him...

They know they gotta play by our rules, now... No.

And they don't have much time.

Anyway...

...in a couple of days we'll be out of the country.

The other night I saw one ofVanni's men...

...in Sandra's club.

He was dancing with her.

Why didn't you fucking tell me?

Look...

...what would you do if Sandra betrayed us?

No... Sandra would never do it...

...but if she did, I'd kill her!

No...

...if she had betrayed us, the police would be here, not at the club.

- Don't you think so? - Yeah, you're right.

- Go and get a few more cases ready. - Right.

Sandra...

...it's for you.

Thank you.

Hello?

Yes, it's me...

- Guido's not coming tonight. - Has something happened?

No... but there's too many police around.

You'll meet him tomorrow at the Valentino Hotel.

- The usual place? - Yeah, there...

...at 9:30 AM. Be there on time.

Is there something wrong?

No, no... Tomorrow he'll tell you everything.

- Don't worry. - Alright, thanks...

- Bye... - Bye.

I heard that they still haven't got the diamonds ready...

These are the eight explosive charges we've planted.

This...

...is the indoor market.

Tomorrow at 9:00 AM, when all the customers are there.

- I'll take you there. - Perfect.

We have to give them another demonstration, alright?

How much time do you need to find that taxi?

It'll be dawn soon...

You call yourself SpecialTeam and you can't even find a taxi!

Show us your I.D.

- They want our I.D. What are we gonna do? - Do you think you're funny?

Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't recognize you...

Don't worry. Goodnight...

Do you want a coffee?

Good evening. Two coffees, please.

Good evening...

Hello, Inspector. What's goin' on tonight?

- Nothing, why? - Why? I haven't had a client all night...

...there are only cops on the streets...

Inspector Vanni! They found the taxi!

Here...

Listen, yesterday you brought a girl here, do you remember?

- You left her in front of that building. - Sure...

- Where did she come from? - Wait... oh, yeah, from Crocetta.

Alright, take me to exactly where you picked her up.

Nico! You stay here and follow the girl when she comes out...

- You, follow me with the siren off. - What about us?

You go to work... aren't you on duty at 8:00?

Charming...

We work all night for Vanni, and all day for Petrucci...

Who do they think we are?

The.38 Special squad...

Special team, special tasks, special men.

- Go fuck yourself... - Asshole...

The two men spoke French...

- What about the woman? - No, the woman didn't.

- Are we still far? - No, we're almost there.

When we're there, don't stop...

They were waiting for me in front of the gate...

...I left the two men in Piazza Indipendenza.

Here we are... this green gate...

Don't stop.

- Vanni to HQ. - At your orders, sir.

I want to speak with Petrucci.

- What's goin' on, Vanni? - Petrucci!

I've found the Marseillaise's place!

Damn! You've done it!

It's a villa in Via Pascoli, send me the SpecialTeam and...

He found us out, that son of a bitch!

Stay out of this case, Vanni, you know that the Chief...

I don't care about the Chief, I discovered the Marseillaise's hideout!

- Send me all the men you have! - But I...

- There's no time! Hurry up, damn it! - Alright...

- Good morning, sir... - Good morning.

Take your time, there's no hurry...

Yeah, sure.

Sandra!

I don't give a fuck about your orders, I'm goin' in now!

You go in from the garden's side and you climb over the wall...

Alright...

Shit...

Gunshots coming from there!

Watch out, he's there!

It's obvious, this is where they've planted the charges...

...but the map's not complete.

For instance, the station's not marked.

We'll have to look for them randomly, I'd begin here...

Piazza della Repubblica? I live there...

...there's an indoor market. - Damn, another crowded place!

It'll be impossible to find the dynamite in there...

The market closes up at 1:00 P.M. so they'll want to detonate it now!

- What are you waiting for? Go... - Yeah, let's go.

That son of a bitch wants to blow up the whole city!

Don't touch anything!

Vanni! I was looking for you...

...Nico called, saying that the girl has been killed...

...and that he found the key to the station's safe-box in her purse.

- Where's Nico, now? - He's at HQ, waiting for orders.

Tell him to get to the indoor market in Piazza della Repubblica...

...they must have placed a bomb there. Look...

...these circles are where that psycho planted the charges...

Send some men there!

Attention, calling cars 7, 15, 23 and 29...

...head towards the indoor market in Piazza della Repubblica...

This is the chief of the police speaking, I'm declaring maximum alert...

...for all cars and motorbikes...

Evacuate all the locations marked on the map...

Sir, the carabinieri chief wants to talk with you...

I need to talk with the army's general...

Porta Nuova station, this is HQ...

...block the entrance to the primary school, nobody must be allowed in...

Ponte Bianco station, this is HQ...

...we got a report of a dynamite charge at the supermarket in Via Sempione...

Calling police car number 9...

...block the entrance of the Vittorio Alfieri school and search it...

Don't create a panic...

...evacuate the areas as quickly as possible...

I repeat... it's important not to spread panic...

If you find any explosive material you must report it immediately...

Stop thief!

Stop him!

Stop him!

Search everywhere... start from there!

My son!

Mom... mom!

You killed him! You killed him, bastards!

Oh my God, Vanni...

Maria!

Maria!

Attention, we've found a briefcase in Viale Carso's UPIM department store...

We gave it to the bomb squad...

This is police car no. 5, we haven't found anything at the Sports Bar...

Attention, we've just found two charges at the Santo Spirito bank...

This is police car no. 12, we're looking for the Vittoria Theater's manager...

Keep searching in sector 9, it's one of the sectors on the map...

...there are many bars in that area...

Tell them to search the school in Via Manzoni too...

Attention HQ, the package contained just a bunch of old rags...

To all men involved in the search...

...all of the charges are hidden in black leather briefcases...

...of the "Executive" brand...

...don't open them, no matter what...

...the bomb squads will take care of them...

We need an ambulance at the Rinascente department store...

...two women got injured falling down the stairs...

...we'll keep on searching...

Awoman wants us to check a plastic bag in her basement, what should we do, sir?

Tell her to fuck off... we don't have time to lose...

We found two briefcases at the San Michele bank...

- I'm looking for the Chief of Police... - His office is down the hall.

- I'm looking for the Chief of Police... - Down there...

Excuse me...

Attention, the SpecialTeam just killed Guido Pugliese, a.k.a. The Blond...

- Good news... - Yeah, but what about the Marseillaise?

He still hasn't informed us about the terms of payment...

- Anything else? - The press is asking for news...

Everything's about to blow up and they want news?!

Sir...

I want you to be careful...

You must avoid creating a panic at all costs...

...otherwise, you'll have to take responsibility for the consequences.

We're not a bunch of amateurs, if you need us to stay quiet...

...in order to catch this psycho, we'll cooperate...

...but there's one thing we want to know...

...what special measures have you taken in this case?

We want to know if the SpecialTeam has been involved in this operation...

There's no such thing as a SpecialTeam, in this department...

Come on, chief, everybody knows that they're called the.38 Special Squad...

Be honest with us...

...quit keeping secrets!

We tried to train a group of policemen...

...using the advanced methods of foreign police forces...

- And how do you explain... - There's nothing to explain!

The experiment was aborted in its early stages, write that if you want...

Nicola Silvestri, a.k.a. Nico...

...died half an hour ago...

...while trying to foil an attack in Piazza della Repubblica...

Franco Lubrano has been killed by the same hoodlum...

...who placed a charge of dynamite under a counter at the indoor market...

They died while trying to protect you!

Nicola Silvestri and Franco Lubrano...

...write their names...

What are their names again?

Let me go! Let me go!

What do you want? Let me out!

Don't be afraid. We're just gonna take a little ride...

No, I don't want to... You're a hoodlum, let me go!

My father's poor, he can't pay a ransom...

Excuse me, they told me to deliver this briefcase to the Chief...

- Who gave it to you?! - A man...

Just this. It's the first one I've opened without the risk of blowing up.

I was sure it wasn't dangerous!

- We can't do anything but wait... - We found this inside the briefcase.

"Put the diamonds inside the briefcase.

Take them to the highway, 1 Km before the airport...

...send the old man who brought it to you.

I want a plane ready to take off.

Don't try any tricks. There are still unexploded charges around."

That's it. He's holding all the aces, we have to play by his rules.

Let's let him go with the diamonds...

...at least this nightmare will be over.

This nightmare will not be over...

...until we've gotten rid of this bastard!

Listen, Vanni... I know you found the right lead...

...but I'm in charge of operations...

...and I have to think in the city's best interests...

...so we must give him the diamonds.

I'll deliver them!

- No. - Why not?

No, Vanni, you're off this case, isn't that clear yet?

This is the Marseillaise. Did you get my message?

I've kidnapped a kid. Don't play any tricks.

One false move and I'll kill him.

Tell him that we accept his conditions.

We accept the conditions.

The delivery will take place in 30 minutes on the highway...

...1 Km before the tollbooth.

Alright.

- Give me the keys! - But, Vanni...

- Wait here, alright? - Goodbye, sir...

- Give me the case. - Here it is, sir...

No tip, sir?

Sir!

Now we're going to the airport...

...we'll take a ride on a plane, alright?

Do you like planes?

I don't want to fly with you, ljust want go home!

Alright, fine...

Check the entrance, but hold your fire! He's got a kid with him...

Marseillaise... this is Inspector Petrucci...

...head towards the west strip...

...you'll see a plane surrounded by policemen.

Please tell us the name of the kid...

Marseillaise... answer!

If it wasn't for that kid, I could kill him right now...

- Calm down... - Damn!

Move it, and no funny stuff!

- Maybe I should try... - You have the order to hold your fire.

Marseillaise!

THE END
