SPIRAL 4 State of Terror

I’m sorry I don’t have better news, Roban

I’m not signing this. I’ll appeal to the Supreme Court

You won’t get rid of me that easily

We brothers are duty-bound to help each other at all times

Don’t you think that might be useful at a time like this?

You were right to leave

The rent was too high. We can find a better place

I’m not coming back

There’s still hope -Are you joking?

You think they have time? They have no papers, no job...

You have to help me -What do you need?

Weapons. Explosives

How much? -5kg

Is that enough? -Don’t worry

A bike’s coming in

It’s Thomas Riffaut. Repeat, Thomas Riffaut

Everyone in! Go, go!

Shit!

Yes, Minister. Consider it done

Yes, I’ll take care of it

Gentlemen...

...the city of Paris is now on maximum alert

The Minister was clear

Do whatever it takes to stop Riffaut setting off the bomb

Any idea of the target? -No, sir

They’re anti-State, which leaves a lot of possibilities

Step up security in all government buildings...

...and in stations and airports

What’s been done so far? -My team are doing all they can

We’ve put Riffaut on the wanted list...

CID are working on Riffaut? Did you know that?

No, we weren’t working on Riffaut...

...but my men found him by chance

They were tracking some arms dealers...

...and caught Riffaut buying explosives

Then why weren’t we informed?

This is ridiculous. We’ve been following Riffaut for months

Under the circumstances...

...I felt it was more important to warn you first, sir

My team are arresting the Kurdish dealers as we speak

They’ll help us find Riffaut

Perfect

Keep Counter Terrorism informed

Sir, CID are perfectly capable...

Superintendent, a terrorist cell is planning an attack

I ask you all to work together...

...and share any information leading to their arrest

Is that clear?

Is that clear? -Yes, quite clear, sir

Get to work

My team find Riffaut, and they’re trying to barge in?

You’re not the only one going for that promotion

Who else?

Counter Terrorism want to recruit someone internally

This is no time to make a name for yourself

The Chief of Staff said to work together, which means...

I know. CID have to play nice

Haroun, It’s Herville

Any news on the Ozbeks?

Go after Riffaut as soon as you can

Top priority. You have the green light

SPIRAL 4 State of Terror

Get in here

Sit down

There. Is that you?

Yeah?

And that’s Riffaut. Recognise him?

Why did he buy explosives? -I don’t know

What’s he planning? -I just sell. I don’t ask questions

Didn’t he tell you?

Or your brothers? He doesn’t know them

The gun business is mine -So what do your brothers do?

Sell Turkish delight? -Yeah

Don’t play dumb. We know your whole family’s involved

With Çetin’s death, too -That’s not true

The weapons are all me. No one else

Thomas Riffaut. Sound familiar?

All right, smartarse. Have it your way

I asked you what your name is

Do you understand French?

You, shut it. Did I ask you to talk?

Just answer the question

I don’t get it, Rodi

Why are you covering for them? Do you know the charges?

Dealing firearms, abetting terrorism, murder...

You’ll get twenty years

Why are you protecting them, you little prick?

Your mother’s still warm, and they’re already fucking you over

I’ll deal with them later -You won’t get a chance

How will you do that when you’re in prison?

I can have my brother killed, no problem

Get up

Well? -They’re pinning it all on Rodi

This is hopeless. Rodi won’t blame them, either

He’s shouldering it all himself

We have no proof he’s dealing guns

The judge will never sign the warrant

The bastards will get away with it

Did he mention Riffaut? -Bugger all. He’s saying nothing

What do we do with the brothers?

The lawyer wants us to let them go

Sod them We’ll keep them guessing

A bit like me

Omar told me where to find Riffaut

A squat in Montrouge

Great

OK, I’ll call Armed Response. We’ll leave when they’re ready

Hop to it

The petitioner was stripped of his powers...

...following a decision by the Supreme Court

He was accused of breaching his professional integrity...

...by using the press to damage a colleague’s reputation

Today, the petitioner is appealing against the court’s decision

He claims it is disproportionate...

...in light of “certain dealings” by his colleague

Mr Roban, do you have any remarks to make?

President, with your permission...

...I have new documents to add to the case

What are they?

Witness statements attesting to bribes...

...paid by a law firm to a judge in the 14th Chamber...

...to obtain reduced sentence

How are these statements related to your plea?

You’ll understand when you read them, President

Unless you’d prefer that I read them aloud...

...in front of the people here

Bring them to me

We will examine them and decide how to proceed

This session is adjourned

Laure, we’re in position

OK, copy that

Let’s go

Ground floor clear. We’ll check upstairs

I don’t believe it. They’re gone

Amina, JP, search down here. We’ll go up

All clear

-Someone’s here to see you -Send them up

Yes? -What the hell is this?

Inspector Berthaud, CID. Who are you?

Albertini, Counter Terrorism. This is typical of Herville

He said the search was in fifteen minutes, so I’d arrive late

Fuck

You want to catch Riffaut without us?

We weren’t informed -Come on. Pull the other one

So what did you find?

Nothing. The squat’s empty

Is that how you want to play it?

Fine by me

But tell your boss that from now on...

...it’s every man for himself

Did anyone tell you to wait for then?

No, Herville said to go ahead

I found this. Isn’t it Riffaut’s?

We’ll send it to Forensics -I found a mobile box, too

Let’s see if we can find the phone from the serial number

So what now? Call Counter Terrorism?

No, keep quiet. Riffaut’s ours -Are you out of your mind?

A bomb’s about to go off, and you’re starting a feud?

Finish the search. We’ll talk later

My evidence on Garnier won’t make it easy for them

If they confirm the court’s decision, they’re protecting a black sheep

And if they retract it, it means the institution’s corrupt

It’s plague or cholera

Well, we’re about to find out

Mr Roban, please stand up

We have considered François Roban’s plea...

...that the Supreme Court’s ruling was an abuse of power

Given that the evidence provided by the court...

...is insufficient to establish...

...whether the decision to strip him of his judicial powers...

...was based on objective information...

...Mr François Roban’s plea to overturn the ruling is justified

Congratulations, Your Honour. You won

Thanks for your help

You look just like a dirty police officer

Yeah? -Open up

Adhesive...

...nails, bolts, fuse box...

Power plug...

...soldering iron...

I’ll get the car. See you in an hour

We’ll be ready

Those clothes are yours

And this?

That too

We used the packaging to trace the mobile

It was bought on Rue de Crimée

And the buyer? -Yeah...

Amina showed the owner a photo of Riffaut...

...and he confirmed it was him

Are you tapping it?

Yes, but the phone’s still switched off

Here -What is it?

My report from the quarry -You already gave me that

No, not this one

I re-wrote what I should have seen

If I wasn’t hiding I’d have seen the Ozbeks selling to Koliba...

...and they would be in court by now

I messed up, and I want to fix it

This will get them twenty years

Why are you doing this? Do you want to get fired?

Not at all. I just want to see them behind bars

Yeah, but not like this

You have kids and a pregnant wife

You can’t mess that up

If I don’t do this, I’ll only be messing myself up

This case hit the skids because of me

I can’t forget that

I wake up every morning feeling sick

I’ve always done my job well

I want to be able to look in the mirror again

JP -Yeah?

Give this file to the judge -OK

You’re dead

CRIME LORD DIES

You’ve reached Ms Karlsson

Leave a message and I’ll call you back

Hello. Can I talk to you?

I’m sorry about your uncle -Don’t worry about it

It was bound to happen one day

What’s this about?

It’s my aunt. She’s in trouble and doesn’t deserve it

What sort of trouble?

The police are going to question her...

...and she needs your help

I’m finished with Jorkal -Because of the Telliers?

It’s over. I don’t have to say why

But the Telliers got their money. They’ll leave you alone

They asked for the money? -My aunt gave it to them

When? -Before they went to meet Johnny

Are you sure? -I was there with her

They got their money but rigged the car anyway?

Yeah

Was it Mrs Jorkal? -Yeah

But I never said that

Johnny went off the rails when he left prison

He killed anyone who pissed him off. The family were terrified

We kept guns under our pillows...

...in case someone came for us

My aunt couldn’t hack it. She even begged him

She begged him to pay the Telliers

What if I’d been in the car? -Yeah, but you weren’t

I’d like you to leave

Does that mean you’ll help my aunt?

It means get lost before I lose my temper

It’s that bitch again

What does she want now? -Calm down. We won the case

Let me deal with this...

...and say as little as possible

Hello, Ms Karlsson -My esteemed colleague

This way. please -Hello, Mr Martineau

So, Ms Karlsson...

...what brings you here?

The court found in favour of your client...

...and ordered his employees to cease occupying the premises

Yes, exactly

You’ve perfectly summarised the court’s decision

I know

But the employees are still demanding regularisation...

...and their redundancy pay

Well, now

If they were regularised, my client would have to give them new contracts

Do you seriously expect Mr Martineau to hire people...

...who held his firm to ransom?

I understand

And if he hired them, Mr Martineau would have to obey labour laws

Paying overtime...

...social security, pensions...

Madam, my workers all have wage slips and a decent salary

Of course they do

700 euros a month for breaking walls twelve hours a day

How very decent

Let’s drop the pretence. We know your client’s a crook

If you came here to insult us... -No, not at all

I’m just surprised that the judge failed to notice a major fraud

If she did her job properly...

...she’d realise that Mr Martineau’s business is illegal

Wouldn’t she?

I’m sorry, but what do you mean?

I mean that Mr Pascal Louis Raymond Martineau...

...born in Saint-Raphael on 13th March, 1956...

...was struck off the Directory of Trades and Business...

...for use of forged documents tax evasion and breach of trust

This was on 18th October, 2004

Here’s your copy

Don’t tell me you were unaware of this?

You really are a shit-stirrer, aren’t you?

Will your client consider his employees’ demands...

...or should I notify the court straight away?

You have one hour

For God’s sake, Martineau...

Is your source reliable?

The manager’s not sure, but the guests fit the description

Can we trust the manager? -Of course

I helped him out when I worked in Public Policy

He was busted for harbouring illegal immigrants

And now he does me the odd favour

Shall we go up? -No, not yet

Wait until we know what’s going on

Once we’re sure Riffaut’s in there, we’ll get back-up and go inside

There it is

It’s Riffaut’s phone. Call Laure

Laure, we’ve got Riffaut’s phone

Shit! He turned it on, then switched it off again

But he triggered a transmitter on Rue Gassendi

Let’s go

How does it work? -It’s simple

You call the phone...

...and the current triggers the detonator

The Semtex explodes. Boom! End of story

We’ll leave when Marc gets back

We’re on the corner of Rue Civelle. There’s nothing to report

Sami -Heading up to Denfert. Nothing here

Tintin -I’m on Rue Daguerre. Nothing yet

What a mess

He could be anywhere

That’s Riffaut’s friend

We have a suspect. Meet us on Rue Civelle

Come here

Stay there -Where are you going?

Get off me!

Nice and relaxed -Where were you going?

Don’t struggle. Where’s Riffaut?

Where’s Riffaut? -I don’t know him

Really? We saw you together, buying explosives

“Marc Charron” -Turn around

What else?

Stay still -Where’s Hotel Télémaque?

I don’t know -We passed it back there

Take him away

Well? -Marc Charron. He drove the scooter

Which means Riffaut’s in the hotel nearby

I’ll get Herville to call Armed Response

Sir, it’s Haroun. We’ve got Riffaut’s accomplice

Fucking hell! That’s good news. And Riffaut?

He’s in a hotel nearby. We’re going to need Armed Response

There’s no time. Go in and I’ll catch you up

OK. So we don’t call Counter Terrorism?

Forget those tossers. Get Riffaut while you still can

OK. I’ll call you back

We’re going in without Armed Response

What’s this?

Fuck! It’s CID

They’re going behind our backs again

I’ll call for back-up -No, don’t

What are you doing? -We’ll wait around the back

Hello. Who’s in Room Seven? -Four people

One girl? -Yes

And another chap left about an hour ago

Charron. What floor? -First, on the left

What the hell are you doing?

It’s the police -Let’s go. Grab the laptop

Well? -Nothing

That’s them. Gilou, let’s go

Fifi, Karl, wait outside

I’ll cover you. See you back at the flat

Be careful

He has a gun

Look out!

All right?

All clear

Who’s he?

Can we leave it to you? -Yeah, no problem

Tintin

Did you just save my life?

I’d snog you, but people would see

Look who it is

The boss is here. Someone looks happy

Let me deal with it

Mazerat and Riffaut got away

And the explosives? -We think they still have them

Forensics are upstairs. They found Semtex and DIY materials

Riffaut was here and you let him escape?

Do you know what they call that? Any ideas?

A load of shit!

That’s because we had no back-up

Any fool could have caught them. But not you

You run around like headless chickens

We’ve been shot at

It’s a miracle no one died, and you still complain?

I’m bloody sick of this -Watch it

I can see why you wouldn’t warn us, Herville

We’re fair game

But no Armed Response? Try explaining that

Actually, we’ve caught two of Riffaut’s accomplices...

...and no officers were hurt

Now if you’ll excuse me, I have work to do

That Greek you caught is the real deal

In Greece, he’s a weapons expert for the anarchists

What are you getting at? Are you sucking up to us?

Keep this to yourselves...

...but it was Albertini who let off the siren

What? -Why?

To warn Riffaut you were here

We we’re hoping to catch him around the back, but we missed him

Look

Your boss and mine are both after the same promotion

Whoever catches Riffaut gets the job

Very good

Perfect. I’ll inform my clients right away

Absolutely. See you tomorrow

It’s OK

It’s OK? -Yes

Quiet, please. Listen up, everyone

I’ve just spoken to Martineau’s lawyer...

...and Martineau has agreed to pay up

Salary, redundancy, everything

I think we should celebrate

We won!

They should be here by now

So what do we do?

Now it’s up to us

Are you with me?

Of course, all the way

You realise there’s no turning back

Nothing will be the same again

No more family, no more friends...

...no one

Just you and me

Doesn’t that scare you? -Don’t be stupid

With you, nothing scares me

Excuse me

I’m quite pissed, so I’ll sign whatever you want

You don’t have to sign anything

Really? Aren’t we dissolving the firm?

Jorkal’s dead

You needn’t have come here to tell me that. I read the paper

Do you want me to come to the funeral or something?

His wife killed him

That’s wives for you. Always up to something

Why are you here, Pierre? What do you want from me?

Do you know why I fell in love with you?

Me neither. I just did

Miss, miss!

Everyone’s waiting. We have a surprise for you

Sorry to interrupt -I’ll leave you to it

I’ll be one minute

Pierre, where are you going?

Home

And...

...can I come, too?

Are you sure that’s a good idea?

I’m thirsty. I’ll see if there’s anything to drink

Want anything? -Sophie, I’ve been thinking

We can’t do this now

You want to give up? -No, never

But we’re wanted. Everyone’s looking for us

This isn’t the right time

Yes, it is. No one will expect us there

No, it’s too risky

Don’t you think I’m up to the job?

It’s nothing to do with that

We can’t make hasty decisions

We can’t take any risks -We’ve already discussed this

We can do it without Marc -But we have no car

How do we get away afterwards? Hitchhike?

Don’t worry. We’ll get those bastards

But now is not the time

Fuck, Sami!

He put our lives in danger, and he couldn’t care less

All he cares about is climbing further up the ranks

And we do nothing? -I never said that

Throwing down our guns won’t help -Yes, it will

He’ll know we’re not willing to die just to feed his fucking ambition

Herville won’t give a shit

Don’t you understand?

If you won’t do the job, he’ll just replace you

Let him. See if I care

Don’t say that. You know it’s not true

You want to catch Riffaut

OK, I care about catching Riffaut. But we don’t need Herville’s help

That’s your problem, Laure

You don’t need anyone

Not me and not Brémont, either

I didn’t mean that -No, but I do

Have you talked to him?

Forget it

You should get some rest

I don’t feel like it

What did Charron say? -Bugger all. Not a word

Karlsson’s his lawyer. She’ll be here tomorrow

And the Greek?

In hospital. We can’t see him for 24 hours

Listen, Laure

I don’t know what you’re doing

Nor do I

Aren’t you happy with Brémont?

Do you want to mess it all up?

Having one bloke is hard enough for you, so two...

Why not three while you’re at it?

Your Honour, it’s great to have you back

Your Honour

Word travels quickly, I see

Yesterday, everyone was desperate to avoid me

After what you did to Garnier, they’ll be bowing at your feet

That would be a first

You soon get used to it, believe me

Your Honour, I just heard you were coming back

Prosecutor. Excuse me

So, my friend...

...have you considered my offer?

The Masons?

I’m touched, but what use would they be to me?

Anyway...

...my victory proves I was right to stick by my guiding principle

Which is?

If you fight in the name of justice...

...you can win, even alone

You’re not serious?

Don’t tell me you’re naive enough to believe you won by yourself?

Please, Roban...

Why do you think I introduced you to the Lodge?

Behind the scenes, who stood up for your honesty...

...your independent spirit?

Who convinced the Supreme Court to clear your name?

Are you suggesting that without the Masons, I’d have lost?

Without them, you wouldn’t be here today

But I never asked anyone

Nor, to my knowledge, did they

Think about it, Roban

You’ve won

You’ll climb up the ranks. They’ll roll out the red carpet

A wide network of connections could be very useful

Your Honour -Hello, Marianne

Prosecutor -Marianne

Take care of him. He’s like a new man

You can count on it

Goodbye, Roban

I’m so happy, François

I knew you’d win in the end

Thank you, Marianne

What do we have today?

A witness in the Meunier case. He’s waiting outside

You can come in

Please sit down

Sophie

Hello, I’m Ms Karlsson, Mr Charron’s lawyer

I’m here to see my client

Wait in here, please

Now listen to the teacher

She’ll tell you what to say, and you repeat it

Very imaginative, Inspector

But you’re the one who needs a lesson

You have thirty minutes

Shit. It’s not looking good

Gilou. Let’s check on Riffaut’s phone

What did you want the explosives for?

To defend ourselves

Against what?

OK, tell me when you leave. I’ll meet you at the hospital

I have to go

We’ve got it

Laure!

Laure! Gilou!

The phone has switched on

Where is it? -Less than 200m away

It’s Berthaud. Who’s been through reception?

No, five minutes ago

A young woman, just behind the lawyer

What was she like?

Thanks

It has to be Mazerat. The bomb’s meant for us

I’ll call Bomb Disposal. Haroun, Fromentin, search the floor

Berthaud, Escoffier, get everyone out

Guys, there’s a bomb in the building

This is Herville. Send Bomb Disposal. We have a bomb in the building

We’re evacuating the building -What’s going on?

It’s a bomb alert

Clear out, quickly

Don’t run. Just walk calmly, please

Come on

They’ll be here in 15 minutes

Hurry up

Down the hall, turn left

Keep moving. Don’t worry

I’ve left my papers behind -You can get them later

Sophie Mazerat

Let me go, or I’ll blow this whole place up

Calm down, Sophie. Let these people leave

Shut up. Step away

I’m stepping away. Can we let these people out, please?

OK, quickly

Come on -Keep moving

What’s he doing? Stay there

He stays there -He’s not moving. Look

He’s not moving. It’s OK

Step back and shut up -I’m stepping back

It’s going to be OK, Sophie

JP -Nothing yet

Tell us where the bomb is -Shut up. Step back

I’m doing as you say -What the fuck is he doing?

Tell him to stay there -Gilou, don’t move

Look. He’s not moving

Get back. Keep going -I’m going

Step back

Why isn’t Riffaut here?

He left you to do the dirty work?

Why do you care?

Sophie...

No one’s hurt. We can still work this out

Don’t you understand? I don’t want to work anything out

Anything? -No

Tintin

Lean on me -Turn on the light

Nothing

Let me have your phone. Please give it to me

Look at me

What’s he doing with that gun? -I’m putting it down

I’m putting it down. Look

Put your gun down now

Put it down

Now kick it away

Give me your phone

Sophie...

Fuck! Sami!

Don’t touch it. Move away

Don’t do this, Sophie

Tell us where the bomb is

Trust me

Trust me -Shut up

Shut your mouth, or I’ll blow this place up

Understand?

Fuck!

It’s my phone

Shit! It’s my wife

She’s about to give birth -Get out of here

I’ve done this before -No, I’ll stay

But don’t mess this up. I want to meet my kid

Go on

...but evacuate the others first

Sophie... -Didn’t you hear me?

I don’t want to hear your voice again

Sophie, can’t we talk about this? -No

Give me your phone

I said give me your fucking phone

Quickly

Don’t do this

Get back

Anyone moves and we all die

Thomas...

Thomas, help me

-Where are you? -With the police

Thomas...

Anais, get out of here

Warn the others

Laure, they’ve found it

Get down!

Sami! Tintin!

Get out of there!

Are you OK? -Yeah

Tintin!

Tintin! Fuck!

Are you OK?

Up you get

Can you hear me? Are you all right?

Where’s Sami? Where is he?

Gilou

Tintin

Sami -It’ll be OK

Sami! -Don’t go in there
