So what's the story with the car?

Hi, boss.

It's Mr. Jacques's car. It's still on the move.

- What have you got? - Two suspects.

They were with her before she died.

On the left, Vincent Piquet, 29,

worked at the Meurthe-et-Moselle Regional Planning Agency.

On the right, Alban Burne, 45,

worked at the same agency, in the mail room.

And where is my coffee?

Um…

We'll get it to you right away, boss.

- So, does either one have a prior record? - No convictions.

But they're linked to nine incidents in the last 48 hours.

Connections to the Albanian mafia. Wanted for the murder of Xavier Hermann.

A hit-and-run, the murder of one of our agents, Mr. Jacques,

the theft of a government vehicle, aiding and abetting a criminal on the run.

Where did these guys come from?

We're trying to find out.

Mr. Jacques picked them up in her car this afternoon

in front of Manon Hermann's house.

Right after the death of her husband, Xavier Hermann.

That was 2:47 p.m.

And just now, at 11:50 p.m., they gave something to this man.

Alil Samej. He's connected to the Albanian mafia.

Yeah, and?

And, uh, at 12:15 a.m., they arrived at Marat Milankovic's house.

Mr. Jacques had him under surveillance.

Who's he? And why was he under surveillance?

- He might have info... - We don't know.

Mr. Jacques didn't file a report.

And is this Marat Milankovic with those two?

We don't know.

And are they working for the Russians?

Don't tell me we don't know.

- One or two sugars? - No sugar, thank you.

Sorry, I already put one in.

Who wants a coffee with a sugar in it?

Okay.

Mr. Paul, you take charge of the case.

Very well.

- Gentlemen. - Ma'am.

Okay, guys. Here are your targets.

The last agent of ours who got close to them

is now in a body bag.

So find them and watch them. But keep your distance.

They are probably armed, and definitely dangerous.

THE FRENCH MANS

Where are we going?

- To the hospital. - Mmm!

No, no, no. Not the hospital.

No, that's where they will start looking for me.

Don't worry. We'll take care of you. Have a drink. You'll feel better.

- Alban, is that you? - It's me, Ma!

Oh, my God!

Who is this? He's bleeding!

Nothing serious. He took a bullet in the shoulder.

We can't take him to the hospital. We need you.

But he's a gangster. You're hanging out with thugs!

No. Trust me, please.

Stop.

Okay, fine. You set him up in the garage.

O-Okay? I don't want blood on the couch.

I'll get my first aid kit.

And take off your shoes!

- Off with your shoes. - Yeah, yeah.

Come with me. Come on! Move it. Come on.

- What's his name? - His name's M-M-Marat.

Okay, Marat? This will probably hurt.

Have you done this before?

After 12 years working in the ER, I've seen a lot of gunshot wounds.

- How many, roughly? - Uh, two.

Counting this one.

She's trying to kill me!

No, no, no! We're here to help you. Remember that?

It's Piotr who wanted to kill me.

Yes. We helped you.

You!

I recognize you, no? My sexy, sexy lover!

He's delirious. He needs some vodka.

Sorry. Sorry.

Don't move. Don't move. Do not move.

Oh.

Bandages!

Vince?

- You okay? - Yeah. Need some air.

He's coming out.

Oh, shit.

Water Department BEAUCASTEL Municipality

Okay, but why?

- "Why" what? - What's this for?

Well, when I was little,

with my dad, uh, we never went on vacation.

So we came up with this as a... As a way to travel, you know.

Los Angeles?

Huh?

Well, we went everywhere on this train.

We just had to change the name of the station.

- In fact, every year... - Here. It's a rehydration solution.

It's got vitamins and minerals. It'll make you feel better. Okay?

- Yeah. - It might taste horrible though.

Thank you, ma'am.

Uh, do you know where my phone is?

Uh, wait.

I think I saw it somewhere over here.

Mom, be careful!

What's this?

It's a music box. It's really fragile.

All right. Put your stuff away, honey.

Oh, here it is. I found it. I'm not crazy.

- Here. - Oh, thank you, ma'am. Thank you.

Stop that music.

Can't you see he needs to go to sleep?

The number you've dialed is either out of service or unavailable.

Your call cannot be completed.

Shit.

- What are you doing here? - Sorry. Did I wake you?

No, you didn't wake me. I can't sleep.

I just... You know me, I'm really stressed about my speech tonight.

I'm terrified.

But you'll be great.

You're always great.

Yeah.

I brought your keys back.

I probably won't be needing them anymore.

There was no rush. You could have given them to me at the office.

- Vincent… - No, Louise, I don't...

I don't want to talk about us because…

every time we talk about us, I…

So here, take your keys back.

I apologize for not doing this sooner, but…

I'm gonna go now.

- See you at work? - Yes.

Come on. Let's go.

Hey, hey, wait.

Do we stay here, sir?

No, you can go.

Continue surveillance of both targets.

And don't lose them.

What the hell happened?

Oh, it's my mother.

Sometimes, she's just so clumsy.

I mean, she didn't do it on purpose, but she dropped the box.

So I'm trying to take it apart. What can you do?

- Taking it apart? - Yeah. To repair it.

But, uh, wait, isn't that a job for a specialist to…

I'm just loosening a few screws, Vincent.

It's okay. Besides…

There you go.

- Shit. - It was bound to happen, damn it.

- What's that? - Oh.

- It's a flash drive. - Oh, that little bitch.

Oh!

She doesn't give a damn about the music box. This is what she's after.

I think we have to see what's on this thing.

- Oh, no, no. - What?

No, no, no. Let's not look at it.

- No, no, no, no… - Vincent.

That'll make it worse.

- No, put it back. - It's okay.

Wait. I'll start it again.

We must have missed something.

Take off your clothes, my little squirrel.

- Come nibble my little nuts. - Awesome.

Yes, obviously, this is a private video. It's none of our business.

Look. Uh, since we started it, we'll watch it all the way through. Okay?

Can't seem to copy the file.

What for?

Hey, do you know that...

This is an investigation. It isn't for fun.

- Oh, yes. - Oh.

- So? - No, I don't believe it.

I know that guy.

I saw him on TV.

I don't remember what it was.

I gave Marat some of your cereal.

Mom, um…

We weren't actually watching this, we...

We're just doing some research, and we had to, uh…

- Hmm. - What did I tell you, Alban?

What did I tell you about those poor women?

- That they're not happy. - No.

They are not happy at all.

And you, Vincent?

Do you think that they are happy, huh?

No, ma'am.

You see?

When you get home from work, your computer will be gone for good.

Okay, we're going to the office.

She said she'd contact us within 24 hours.

What are we doing today?

This-This isn't a rec center.

Meurthe-et-Moselle Regional Planning Agency

He looks a bit old for an internship.

- No, I mean, it's... it's a career change. - Hmm.

That's it.

What did you do before?

- He... - I... I was a baker.

- Okay. You can go. - Okay. Great.

Thanks, Laurent.

Shit.

- What is it? - My contact isn't answering anymore.

- Your contact? - Yes.

A French Intelligence agent.

She was supposed to protect me, but she's not answering anymore.

Your agent wouldn't be Mr. Jacques, by any chance?

Yes, that's her.

What? Do you know her?

- Well… - No. Uh… More or less. Yes, yes.

- But she's dead. - What? Dead?

- Who's dead? - No one.

Alain.

What?

Hello, guys.

Another Alain. You don't know him.

Sandrine!

- Yes? - Did they receive the banner?

- Yes, it was delivered... - Oh, um, that's it. Thanks! Goodbye.

So, you take care of hiding Marat in the mail room. Got it? Okay.

- I need to get in touch with French Intel. - Yes, fine. I'll take care of it.

Yes, and my bandages also need to be changed...

- Okay, yeah. I'll take care of it. - Yes, we'll do that. Come on.

- Hello, French Intelligence. - Yes, hello.

I don't know if I'm calling the right number to, uh…

What is the threat?

No, no, there is no threat. Well...

Uh, fine. Let me explain.

I actually picked up a man, uh, Marat Milankovic,

who was supposed to talk to a French Intelligence agent

who unfortunately has just died.

Hello?

One moment, please.

SMALL TOWN, BIG FUTURE

- Oh, Yes! - Hello, Vincent.

I'm Mr. Paul. I worked with Mr. Jacques.

We know what happened to him, and we think you might be in danger too.

But don't worry, we're here, and we're close by.

- All right. - I'm gonna ask you some questions.

Answer as simply and as quickly as possible.

Mm-hmm. Okay, yeah.

Did Mr. Jacques say or write anything to you?

Uh, no. Well, she... He asked us if we knew Marat Milankovic.

Did he speak about this to anyone besides you?

No, I... I don't think so.

- Have you spoken to anyone about this? - Oh, no, no.

As far as you know, is Milankovic still alive?

Yes. Yes, yes. He's, uh... He's with me at work.

Very good. Where, exactly?

At the department of Meurthe-et-Moselle Planning Agency.

In Beaucastel.

- Are you coming to get him? - No.

That would be too risky.

We'll meet in private at a secure location.

Okay.

Belvedere Road, at the scenic overlook.

Be there at two o'clock.

Hello?

We've had visual confirmation that Milankovic is here.

And that there's just a single camera on the back door.

The maintenance guy smokes outside every 20 minutes.

We go in and bring Milankovic back for questioning.

No. He'll be defensive if we bring him in.

We'll question him in a public place. That way, he'll be more inclined to talk.

You can leave now.

Copy that.

- Oh, I have some good news. - Mm-hmm?

We have a meeting with the French Intelligence at 2:00 p.m.

- Good. - It's more than good. It's great.

Mm-hmm.

The famous invisible-ink trick.

Hmm.

What is it, anyway?

It's a list of names.

The names of Russian agents on French territory.

- Oh… - Yeah.

Wow, that's... that's some serious stuff.

We better keep that in a safe place.

Who's going to keep it?

You are.

- Oh… - Yeah.

Keep it to yourself. Don't tell anybody.

- No one. Understood? - Understood, yeah. Never.

There's an expectation of trust that I will never...

You know, I'll never let you down.

Hmm.

Oh!

I need a bandage.

What for?

To bandage, Sandrine. What do you normally do with a bandage?

I have to fill out a form first.

Put down, uh…

"Bullet wound."

Excuse me.

Anyone seen the banner that was supposed to be delivered this morning?

The banner, yeah. It's here. I took care of it.

I unwrapped it. I verified that everything was correct.

Okay. Great.

Thanks.

Vincent, there's a hot chick asking for you.

"A hot chick"? No, I don't think so.

Go ahead. You look very busy.

Thanks.

Hey, Tonio!

I won't deny anything. It's true.

We're waiting for the approval of our European partners

to begin construction on the project…

- He's full of it. - Can you turn it off, please?

- Mr. Secretary! - No, I'm watching.

Mr. Secretary, wait. Give us a moment, please?

Uh… For-For TV 54 regional.

What is your response to the discontent expressed by the local residents

yesterday at the marketplace?

Are you taking all of this into account?

Please!

We have listened to public opinion.

I know that there are delays, but you know,

the construction of a new TGV line

also requires consent of the affected communities.

It takes time, but I can assure you that we are doing everything possible

to speed up the negotiation process.

Please, please. Ladies... Ladies and gentlemen.

No, no, no, no. The interview is over. Thank you very much. Thank you.

Tonio.

Oh.

Vincent! There's a guy pretending to be Tonio.

- Really? Who's Tonio? - Yeah.

He's the maintenance guy. I found him tied up.

What the fuck?

Let's go! Come on! Come on!

Let's do this!

FIRE ALARM

Ow, ow, ow!

Who are you working for?

The department of Meurthe-et-Moselle Planning Agency.

That's right, pal. Today's not your lucky day.

Because nobody messes with Meurthe-et-Moselle.

No.

Everyone keep moving, please. Move forward!

Come on.

Move forward, please.

Keep moving. Come on now.

They're not here?

Are we early?

Are we going to wait here?

Yeah.

I love coming here.

Yeah, me too.

- You can see the whole town. - Yeah.

You see those trees, over there?

What, in the back there?

I used to come here with my dad to fly kites.

But one day, he…

There was… …There was a kite that got caught in a tree,

and my dad tried to knock it loose with his shoe.

Then with his other shoe.

Then he ended up using mine.

So, uh, we went home barefoot.

You should've seen the look on my mother's face.

- And you see that big tree, over there? - Yeah?

Well, that's where my parents kissed for the first time.

And that's where we scattered my father's ashes.

How old were you when he died?

Twenty.

That's young.

Yeah.

One morning he left for the factory and…

never came back.

An accident.

You know, that day, life came to a halt.

Especially for my mom, because…

Well, being on her own, for one.

They still had a lot of plans together.

So we decided to stay together,

- and we take care of each other. - Mm-hmm.

You know, that's how we try to... Manage to survive, so to speak.

- Mm-hmm. - What else can you do?

I'm sorry.

Well, that's life, as they say.

Some are less fortunate than me.

Well, over there, that's where Louise and I first kissed.

- In the supermarket parking lot? - Mm-hmm, yeah, but it used to be...

- You remember, a nightclub. - Yeah.

- We went roller-skating. - That's right. I remember.

I remember it was a Saturday afternoon. I put gel in my hair.

I had on...

I had on my red sleeveless down vest, just like Michael J. Fox.

I can see it now. Just like Back to the Future.

That's right.

And we kissed.

Here they come!

Glad to see you.

It's a good thing you called us.

I have to speak with Mr. Milankovic privately.

Wait in the car. We'll tell you when you can leave.

- Well… - Yes. It's…

Maybe this is time to say goodbye.

Thank you. Hmm?

And thank your mother.

Hmm?

Strength and honor.

Goodbye.

You. Hmm?

My sexy lover.

What?

Don't ever change, hmm?

Never.

Goodbye.

Why did you want our protection?

I know the names and locations

of all the Russian agents in Western Europe.

And where did you get those?

You know what?

What?

If the TGV passes through here,

everything will be gone.

No more hospital. No more school.

No more park. No more of my father's tree. They'll tear down everything.

Yeah, well, it's clear that it will cut the city in half.

Yeah. The trains won't even stop there.

- Yeah, but it won't happen. - How can you be so sure?

Well, because of that ecodistrict project. Louise's project.

That's-That's the purpose, to prevent the construction of the line.

Who says this information is reliable?

Why would I lie to you about it? Tell me that, huh?

That's why we sold the land to Claude Becker.

City hall gave him a great price.

Mr. Jacques believed me.

Okay, okay. I believe you.

From now on, I'm your new contact on French soil.

You must only talk to me.

Yeah.

The ecodistrict project, in fact, protects the town center,

blocking the TGV line.

But Claude Becker... Let me get this straight.

He's the psychopath's father?

- Mm-hmm. - Yeah, well, at least…

Have you spoken to anyone about this?

- No. - Not even to other intelligence agencies?

No.

- Alban. - Hmm?

Imagine that Becker had asked Louise

to create a nice little ecodistrict project.

Mm-hmm.

Of course, city hall sells him the land for a pittance.

And then, all he has to do is change sides.

Oh, fuck.

A paper trail?

Of course. I'm not crazy. Hmm?

How many?

If Becker puts pressure on the Secretary of Transportation

to authorize the construction of the TGV line,

he can turn around and resell the land for a fortune.

A single list, a copy. As a guarantee.

How is he supposed to pressure him? With some bribes? Blackmails?

Oh, the sex tape!

Holy shit! That's the guy! It's Douvelot,

the Secretary of Transportation, on the video with Manon!

I knew I'd fucking seen his face somewhere. I saw him on the news.

I want the list and the copy.

Why do you want them, hmm?

That's the name of the program I couldn't remember.

What? You don't remember the name "news"?

No.

Where are the documents?

Oh, fuck. We have to tell Louise right now.

Those bastards. I don't believe it.

Okay.

Fine.

Let's go!

Come on!

Where are the documents? The ones Marat gave you.

But we don't…

- Tell me, and everything will be fine. - Sorry.

I-I don't understand what you're talking about.

Stop them!

Come on! Stop them!

Come on!

Jesus, I don't believe it. They eliminated Marat.

What documents was he asking for?

- Do you know? - No idea.

I can't fucking believe it! Can you imagine?

- Oh, look, there's a guy behind us. - What? Oh, fuck! Step on it!

- I am stepping on it! - Go faster! A lot faster!

- He's right on us. - Go faster!

- I am going faster! - Faster. Step on it, Alban!

Get down!

Come on. Watch out!

Oh, fuck.

He's armed. Go inside, ma'am! He's armed!

- Let's switch cars. - What?

We're covering our tracks! Come on! Hurry up! Come on!

Are you okay? Can you talk?

- I'm okay. - Too bad.

Fuck. We lost them.

Something doesn't seem right.

- No, everything's fine. - It's weird.

No, no. Look, there's no one behind. We're fine now, dude.

Now we're out of the woods.

Now we're gonna ride easy.

We'll just follow the road.

But I'm keeping my eye out for them.

- No! - Oh, no!

Not good.

- Oh, God. - Oh, no. Oh, no.

Vincent Piquet!

Alban Burne!

Bourne!

Give yourselves up! You're surrounded!

It's over.

We were so close to making it.

Open the doors slowly! Get out of the car slowly!

I repeat. Get out of the car…

Vince?

- Huh? - We still make a great team, you and me.

…and put your hands on your head.

When I give the signal, fire.

Whatever happens, I... I don't regret one second of it.

I'm giving you three seconds.

One…

Two…

Three!

- Hang on. Get down! - No!
