- Here you go, a present for you.

We avoided a fatal overdose.

You can question her shortly.

- How many are there?

97. That's 1.164 kilos to be exact.

- Fuck ...

If that's pure cocaine and they cut it like the rest, they increase their profits twofold.

- That's right. Two kilos, that's 120,000 Euros.

- If the guy has between 5 and 6 mules

per plane per week ...

- Enough of your calculations,

you're making me dizzy.

I'm going to see where we're up to.

Amine took on a big fish,

a really big fish.

- We should be worried about Souleymane.

- The mule needs to spill her guts.

- It's OK. You can go in.

- Hang on, hang on.

What the hell is she doing here?

Music of the opening credits plays.

...

- I was at the market at Cockerel Square.

- Where's that?

- In Cayenne.

Some men approached me

and offered me 3,000 Euros

to transport drugs.

- Who were they?

- I didn't know them.

- And afterwards?

- We went to the hotel.

- Which hotel?

- It was dark when we got there ...

- In Paris, where were you supposed to go?

- Someone was supposed to come and get me at the airport.

- What? Who is 'someone'?

- OK, so,

to summarize, you don't know anyone,

you didn't see anything.

That gets you a one-way ticket to jail.

OK, can we have a quick chat?

Why are you defending this mule?

- I don't have to justify myself.

- It's the dealers who sent you who are paying you. Is that right?

- No. It's legal aid.

- Stop it ...

Josephine, it's the same people who abducted Souleymane.

You have to convince her to give us their names.

- Listen. This woman

lives in Cayenne in a shanty town owned by the drug dealers.

You know very well what will happen if she snitches. It will be over for her.

- OK. So what do we do?

She's our only lead to find Souleymane.

- I too want to find Souleymane.

Intriguing music plays.

...

Someone knocks at the door.

- Come in.

- Hello.

- Tell me you have found Souleymane.

- No, not yet.

And the mule is giving nothing up.

If we don't open a criminal investigation,

we don't have any way to put pressure on her.

- The Prosecutor's Office won't do that.

Not for a simple drug mule.

And afterwards, we won't be able to question her.

- Unless we combine the two cases.

- That's won't work.

there's no relationship between this woman who landed at Orly,

and the murder of Amine.

- It's the same case. It's the same drug network.

Amine stole their coke, they hunted him,

they caught him and they beat him to death.

- Yes, that's your hypothesis. It's solid.

- But there's a difference between what you think

and what you can prove ...

I'm investigating a murder here. Not drug trafficking.

- Our only lead in finding Souleymane and arresting Amine's killers

is this drug mule, so I'm asking you ...

- The answer is no.

The case is far too weak.

All you have is the testimony of Bilal, an informer.

That won't hold up for one second in court.

So your team needs to get off their collective arses

and find a new lead.

- OK.

You have made yourself very clear.

I will deliver your instructions to my team.

- Fuck, that's very precise.

- Well ... That's the business, you know

OK, uh ... Emergency exit.

- Yeah.

- Titi, come here.

What's going on with the Jancos?

They ran up 800 Euros last night.

You're managing like an idiot.

What money did you use to pay Charline? Huh?

- It wasn't Titi. It was you who asked us to treat them well

while you were in the clink.

- OK, go on with the tour.

Intriguing music plays.

...

- Here. Regarding tools, for now, you get a walkie-talkie.

You need authorization from the courts

to carry a nightstick and pepper-spray.

but given your court supervision, in my opinion, that's a non-starter.

- Hmm ...

- It's a simple job. You check the customers when they enter,

if there's any doubt, you ask them to leave. OK?

- What do I do about VIP's?

- VIP's?

- I dunno, the thing with the Jancos ...

- You're there to filter out the shit at the door.

That's all we're asking of you.

I'll take care of the rest.

Intriguing music plays.

...

- It's dead.

Between the judge, who doesn't want to do anything, and the mule, who doesn't want to say anything,

we're doing just fine.

- Ali, get me what we found on Maria.

I want to see her cell phone.

Tom, check the bag again.

- I'm telling you, there's nothing there.

No numbers, no calls ...

- What does the bag tell us?

- Apart from this blouse, there's nothing out of the ordinary.

- It's so she doesn't raise the suspicions

of the customs officers.

- Maria will find herself in jail a long way from her kid.

We could try something. I dunno.

Testify in exchange for being returned to French Guiana. No?

- No, Josephine is right about this.

If she talks, when she is back in Cayennes, she will be killed.

- She won't talk.

Tense music plays.

...

- 104 Victor Hugo Avenue, Aubervilliers.

Tom, can you check that address for me?

104 Victor Hugo Avenue, in Aubervilliers.

- Tom, it's next door to the kids' squat.

...

- It's a hotel.

...

- It's the hotel where I saw the girls going the other day.

...

- They weren't prostitutes you saw, they were drug mules.

...

They came straight from the airport.

- The drug traffickers are over there.

- I'll call the Gang Squad.

We'll bust the hotel.

...

- Don't move.

Stay where you are!

...

- District 2 Judicial Police.

- JP, stay here.

- Police!

- Do you have ID? I need the hotel layout.

...

Rap music plays.

...

They crash through the door.

- Police! Police!

- Police!

They break down a door.

- Police!

Rap music plays.

- There's nobody left here. Fuck.

- It smells of shit!

...

- Turn that music off.

...

Beckriche coughs and gags.

Tense music plays.

- I think I caught something ...

Oh, fuck ...

...

- OK, it's well organised.

The mules evacuate the drugs next door,

the guys recover the coke and cut it here,

it leaves ready for sale.

- Oh, fuck ...

- Look.

It's Eeeyore ...

...

Gilou.

- What?

- Sorry.

It's the design that was on the coke.

we found in Amine's bag at the laundromat.

- That makes sense, the kids' squat is next door.

- We're at the right place.

When Maria got caught

at the airport, they were afraid she would talk.

They got done quickly.

- We need to wait for the results.

For the moment, we have nothing that leads back to the drug dealers.

- OK, we're going to see the manager, because ...

- You didn't know what was going on in the rooms?

- Which rooms?

- Hello.

- Hello.

- Commissioner Beckriche. I have a few questions.

Can I come in?

- Yes.

- We would like to know more

about your neighbours in rooms 103 and 104

Did you run into them?

Yes, I ran into them. But I didn't know them.

An object falls.

...

What on earth ...

What the hell is he doing here?

- He loves it.

It's his thing. He pays me to do it.

- Oh, OK.

- If you don't mind ... I'm going to get dressed.

- Yes, yes.

So, the gentleman is a client?

- Hmm.

I used to be a hooker,

but I converted to S&M.

It's cooler. They just want me to tie them up

and discipline them.

- Yes, of course, that's the main idea.

- No, no. Sometimes, it goes a little further.

Some of them want me to stab them in the penis.

- OK, OK, OK, I've got it.

- Can I go?

- Just a moment.

So how much do you pay for the lady to treat you like this?

- You're not going to make trouble ...

- How much?

- 200 Euros, plus the cost of the room.

- How much is the room?

- I give them 50 Euros at reception.

- That has nothing to do with ...

- We're going to get all of this in writing.

Amrani.

- Yeah.

- We are arresting the manager on suspicion of procuring.

Let's see if he wants to continue to play games with us.

Tense music plays.

...

- How are you doing?

As far as I understand, the Jancos live large and pay nothing.

- How much are we talking about?

- Well,

according to Cisco, it's 800 Euros, but I imagine it's more like between 2,000 and 4,000.

Can you leave us to speak in private, please.

- It's like that every night.

- Do you think it's some kind of reward for the murder of Darmon?

- I don't know.

But it's starting to add up.

Cisco is stressed about it.

- The murder may have given them some leverage.

You will need to do some digging.

You need to figure out the connection.

There must be something that ties the Jancos to the murder.

- Like what?

- I don't know. If I had

the serial numbers of their phones, I could work on their phones.

- OK.

- There are two witness accounts which are evidence of procuring.

- I'm providing a service. Would you prefer they do it outside?

- You're making money from each client,

so, it's not a service, it's a business.

- But, we can be nice.

We just want

the names of the occupants of rooms 103 and 104.

- But I already told you, I don't know anything!

Ali bangs the table.

- OK. That will do.

- Hotel procuring. According to the penal code,

article 225 paragraph 5, regular procuring gets you 7 years

and a fine of 150,000 Euros.

Hotel procuring is more complicated.

It's a fine of 750,000 Euros.

and 10 years in prison.

That's article 225 paragraph 10.

- They came, they went, that's all. They didn't speak to anyone.

- Who paid for the rooms?

- Uhh ...

- Who paid for the rooms? Who paid for the rooms?

- They paid in cash. Once a month.

- Hmm?

- A guy with a tattoo.

He was the one who met them.

He gave the orders.

"You, upstairs, you, off you go", all that kind of thing.

- Is this him?

- She asked you a question.

- Yes.

- That's good.

- No, not really.

No, not really. Because we already know that. So, either

you tell us something we don't know,

or we get back on your case.

Because you're starting to waste our time!

- Sometimes there was a big 4x4

parked out front, and he, he had ...

He was flush with cash.

- OK. What model 4x4, what color?

- A gray Mercedes.

- Hmm?

- What kind of gray?

- Dark gray.

- Yes? Is that it?

- With german plates.

- With german plates?

- Yes.

- That's unbelievable. That's good information, huh?

With german plates.

OK, let's go. Article 225 paragraph 10.

- The Alsatian.

- What do you mean, 'the Alsatian'?

- Once there was a girl who collapsed.

They discussed whether they should take her to the ER or not.

The guy with the tattoo, he said, "I'm calling the Alsatian".

And 10 minutes later ...

the Mercedes ... well. it was there.

- I'm going to put this away.

(- Oh, thank fuck ...)

Tense music plays.

...

- Your cousin is going to be transferred here to the holding cells.

She will appear in front of the judge tomorrow.

- So soon?

- The medics let her out early,

perhaps they need the bed.

I want to talk about Souleymane. How is he?

- He is safe. Don't worry.

You get my cousin out and everything will be fine.

Will you be there for the background inquiry?

- No I wasn't planning to be there.

But don't worry, I have briefed Maria.

- They're going to ask her about her family.

She must not mention me.

- I know my job. Where is the proof of residence?

- She lives in a shanty town.

- I don't care, I need it.

If prison is the one place

where they can be sure to find her, that's where they will put her.

- I will call social services in Cayenne. They are taking care of her daughter.

- I need it tomorrow morning without fail.

If I don't have it, I can't do anything for her, no matter what threats you make.

Gentle music plays.

...

- What are you doing here?

- Hello. Can I get a coffee, please?

- Did Josephine send you?

Can't you see I'm working?

- Yes, I see that.

What time do you get off?

I ... OK, I'll just find a seat, I'm in no hurry.

I'm going to watch you work.

- I'll be right back.

- Yes.

- Josephine told me you don't want her to represent you any longer.

I don't give a shit about the trial.

I don't think you have the luxury of not giving a shit.

The wheels of justice have been set in motion.

They can't be stopped because you are angry with Josephine.

The courts are not be taken lightly.

Your life will be laid bare in front of the jurors.

They will be terrified by the thought

of accusing an innocent man and you

by the idea of being thought a storyteller.

- I told the truth.

- I believe you.

but there is no tangible evidence to support your claims.

It's the worst possible situation.

Your word against his.

- So what now?

Are you going to defend me? Is that it?

- I'm a pitbull, Lola.

She snorts.

If I am on your side, we will win.

Intriguing music plays.

- Are you doing this for me or for Josephine?

...

- We've combed through all the files, we've contacted the Drug Squad,

there's no trace of the Alsatian. As far as the car is concerned,

we've got nothing there either.

- OK. What I've learned is that the drug mule

appears in court tomorrow.

- We have one card left to play.

If the traffickers have paid for a lawyer for Maria,

it means someone is interested in her, and that someone might show up at the hearing.

In which case, there's a chance we can get onto them.

Hang on. If we all show up, Karlsson is going to burn us straightaway. So ...

- Unless we mount a surveillance operation.

- Good evening, gentlemen.

- Good evening.

- Good evening.

- Welcome.

- Good evening, can I see the bags?

Good evening.

Good evening.

Good evening.

What are you doing?

- And you, what are you doing, eh?

- What?

- Why are you touching me?

What's going on?

Are you touching me?

- Get in line.

- Let him through. Let him through.

- You didn't warn him or what? Don't ever touch me again.

- He's new.

Let's go, guys.

Are you serious?

Go on, go on.

It's the Jancos. You don't touch them. Didn't you know? Titi?

- Go on, let's go.

- How was your search?

- So-so. We're floundering a bit.

- Oh, yeah?

- Hello, Romy.

Hello, my love.

Vincent.

- Yes?

- Have you seen Gilou since he got out?

- Gilou? No.

- I'm worried about him.

- How come you're worried?

- I saw him.

I know, I'm not supposed to, but hey ...

- Ah...

- If I'm telling you about it, it's because ...

I have the impression there's something wrong.

- It can't be easy for him.

- I know it's not easy.

He told me he was working security, I don't have a good feeling about it.

- I'll try to see him.

- Thanks.

- I'll keep you posted.

The car pulls away.

- Goodbye, Romy.

In Da Club (50 Cent) plays.

...

- Two minutes, I need to take a piss.

- Yeah, go for it.

...

R&B music plays.

...

- Don't touch. Don't touch me!

Let me go!

Let's go!

Let me go!

Let go. Let me go!

- Let her go, for fuck's sake!

Let her go!

- What are you up to? What are you doing?

What do you want?

- Put it down.

- Piss off.

- Put it down.

- Piss off.

Fuck off.

- Put it down.

- Oh, oh, what's the problem?

Mario, relax.

Put that down. Let's talk about it.

- It's that guy. He's pissing me off.

He's bugging me.

- What the fuck are you doing?

- I was taking a piss, when I heard shouting.

- OK, it's cool. Sorry, he just started here.

- I don't want to see him again.

- If you want a girl, I'll send you another one on the house.

- Yeah, yeah ...

Bum.

- Are you OK? Sure?

- Yes, I'm OK.

- Wait for me in the lobby.

Stop playing the vigilante, or you're done here.

We're running a business here.

If there's a problem, you call me. Got it?

- Yeah.

Are you getting it into your head?

Tense music plays.

...

- What's going on? Mario was furious.

Was he causing trouble?

- Emma got shaken up, OK?

He was there.

- Safe return.

- Good night.

- Yeah.

Watch yourself.

...

- My car is over there, do you want a ride home?

I suppose I owe you that, right?

Why were you searching Mario's jacket?

- I though he was carrying.

- The Jancos do what they like.

Is that because they're friends of Cisco?

- No, they're not friends at all.

When Cisco was in prison, it was his partner Darmon who managed the business.

Then the Jancos turned up. At first, it was all above board.

They brought in a lot of people.

They were kings.

Then they started to run up bar tabs.

Finally they wanted cash from the takings.

- And Darmon couldn't do anything about it?

- No, no, he was completely out of his depth here.

- He was a business man.

He didn't know how to manage criminals.

Before he died, he was going to give in.

- What do you mean, "give in"?

- He was going to form a partnership with the Jancos to keep the peace.

Cisco was in prison and that drove him mad.

And then Darmon got killed, so the partnership was never created.

- That worked out OK for Cisco, right?

- What are you talking about! You don't know anything.

- I know it's none of my business.

- I just hope the club doesn't close. Cisco is drowning in debt.

But I need this job.

- Me too.

Gentle music plays.

...

- Where are we going?

- Uhh ...

I'm going to take the tube.

- You don't want a ride?

- I have someone.

- OK.

Disturbing music plays.

...

- I hope Maria

is up first.

- Yes, hello? What's going on?

- You have to come by my shop.

- I can't right now.

- What's up?

- No, please come now,

* it's urgent.

I'll see what I can do.

*- OK.

- It's Bilal. He wants me to swing by his shop.

- Maybe he has news of Souleymane?

Listen, you go and come back when you're done.

- I am Ms. Karlsson, counsel for Maria Yann.

There's a document missing from the file, the proof of residence,

but I have a screenshot.

What do you want ...

What do you want to do?
Do you want to request a postponement?

- No, no, no! My client absolutely must appear today.

I expect someone to bring it shortly.

Here, take a look.

- If you can get me a certified copy

and as long as the president of the court has no objection,

I will gladly consider it.

- Thank you.

Disturbing music plays.

...

- Hello.

Yes, hello.

- Captain Amrani. District 2 JP, Is there a problem?

- Yes, there is.

He is subject to a local order

His shop is required to be closed.

- Fuck, then ...

Don't worry. Can I have a word?

- Actually, he's no longer affected by the order.

We just forgot to inform you.

He's working for us now.

- Ah, OK.

Watch yourself, he's a real piece of work.

- Exactly, that's why we're working with him.

A squeaky clean informer, that's not very exciting, is it?

- OK, I get it.

- Good.

- Let's go, we're good.

- Thanks, guys.

- That was good of you. I owe you one.

- That's the point of the game, isn't it?

- Anyway, how's your kid?

- Yeah, he's OK, and you? Your son? It's bronchiolitis, right?

- Yeah. Alhamdulillah, he's better.

- Alhamdulillah, then.

There's no news of Souleymane. We still haven't found him.

Have you heard anything?

No?

- Otherwise I would have told you. That's what I'm here for.

- OK.

Catch you later.

Disturbing music plays.

...

- What up, bro? How are you doing, my friend?

- Doing well? Keeping fit?

- Can I give these back to you?

- Sure.

- Can you give me four of them?

- OK.

- Those cops who just left, what were they doing here?

- Nothing, it was a local order.

- And?

- Nothing. I have a guy who took care of it. That's it.

- Do you have a deal with him? Are you an informer?

- Relax. He collects his money and that's it.

- I see. Arabs doing favours for Arabs.

- Hey, hey, what did you say?

Suck my balls, bro.

"Suck my balls, bro".

- Is it OK?

- Yes, perfect.

- Then clear off

you crazy dude.

- I got you a coffee.

- No, thanks.

- You don't want it?

I'll have both of them. I'm beat.

- Do you have any news?

- Yeah.

Actually, Cisco and the Jancos are not mates.

The Jancos took advantage of his incarceration to poison the club.

Darmon was at the point of partnering with them.

- It wasn't them who killed him?

- No.

No, I think it's more likely it was Cisco who sent someone

to stop the deal getting done.

- Fuck, we're back to square one.

- That's right.

If the Jancos continue to screw up the club, Cisco is going to get very angry.

- This stinks.

- If you can find a way to rid Cisco of these cockroaches,

I'm really going to be his best friend.

You need to give me more ammo.

- I'll let you know.

- That's all.

- Hang on, hang on.

Did you see Laure?

- Yes. I saw her. I told her we couldn't see each other any more.

I didn't want to do that over the phone.

How did you know?

- I saw her yesterday evening. She asked me to call you.

She's worried about you.

- Tell her everything is fine. OK?

- The facts have been established and they are serious.

I know the accused has a very modest income,

but 60% of the population of French Guiana

live below the poverty line.

Are we going to grant discharge to these thousands of people

to import the drugs

of these traffickers?

French Guiana has become the cocaine hub

between South America and France.

A wave of cocaine which is transported by couriers,

like the accused, who, as French ciitizens,

can cross the Atlantic with just an identity card.

We must stem this tide and show that the Republic

is resolute in its dealings with criminal networks.

That is why I recommend

a minimum sentence of 3 years imprisonment.

- Thank you, Prosecutor. The floor is yours, counsel for the defense.

- With a certain elegance, the prosecutor,

in referring to my client, used the word, "courier".

In so doing, he avoided the use of another word, "mule",

a shameful word, a degrading word, but the right word nonetheless.

That word is commonly used

because it describes precisely the role of the courier

in these criminal networks.

Not that of a accomplice. nor that of an employee,

but that of a beast of burden.

For the mules, the crumbs

of these immense illegal fortunes.

- She's almost asleep. She doesn't look at all worried.

For the mules, the dangers of transporting these products in their bodies.

- My client almost died

carrying out this suicide mission.

A balloon burst and the doctors

narrowly saved her life.

Maria lives in La Crique,

a shanty town in Cayennes,

where she raises her 8 year old daughter as a single parent.

She has no contact with her family

or with the father.

Anna goes to school, she is well-integrated,

but what will become of her if her mother

is incarcerated in France?

Madam President,

I am not asking you for an acquittal,

merely that you do not deprive Anna of her mother.

That's why I ask that you sentence my client

to a term of imprisonment,

not to exceed two years,

without a committal warrant.

Maria can thus return freely to Cayenne

where she will appear before a judge

who will have her serve her sentence locally.

without breaking family ties

- OK, thank you, Attorney.
Would the accused please rise.

You have the last word.
Do you wish to say anything

in your defense?

- I'm sorry.

- Did you see that?

- I beg your forgiveness.

- OK. The hearing is adjourned.

The judgement will be handed down after the recess.

- I'll be back.

Tense music plays.

...

- All units from Laure, Josephine has left, can you see her?

...

- Affirmative. She's going down.

...

- All units receiving Nico,

* she's crossing the lobby.

...

- All units from JP, I've got her.

- Do you have the proof of residence?

- She has made contact with a black female,

who just arrived on a scooter.

- How's it going?

- We are waiting for the judgement. I have to go back.

Wait for me at the Omnibus. It's a cafe close to the tube.

I'll meet you there as soon as the cops have gone.

...

*- The black female is leaving. She's leaving

...

Oh no, hang on, she's parking.

*- I don't understand. Is she leaving or is she parking?

*- She's parking.

- OK. Are we putting a tail on her?

- Uh, no, we don't tail scooters.

We install a tracking device

- A tracking device. Where are we going to get a tracking device at this time?

- Next door to Police HQ. I'll take care of it.

You take care of the report for the judge.

- She's back.

- That's right,

play me for a fool.

...

- Mrs Maria Yann, please rise.

The court finds you guilty of the charges against you.

and sentences you to a term of 18 months imprisonment

without a committal warrant.

You will report to

the enforcement judge in Cayennes

where you will make arrangements to serve your sentence.

Do you understand?

*- I already told you.

- No, but I ...

*- So, I'll tell you again. It's no.

- OK. Got it. Sorry.

- Ta-da!

- Keep it. The judge doesn't want to hear about a tracking device.

- Oh, fuck!

- I know. I told her. What do you want me to say?

- Cell phone vibrates.

- Yes, Berthaud.

- I can't believe it. The judge won't approve the tracking device.

We can't work with her.

- Calm down, Berthaud. You're asking me to unofficially tag a scooter.

can't you give me 10 seconds to think about it?

- This woman is part of the criminal network

The license plate of the scooter belongs to a fake identity.

We have to accommodate her.

Boss,

these are the people who have Souleymane.

- OK, OK, agreed.

* Do it.

- OK, go ahead. Deploy the tracker.

- We don't have to tell the judge everything.

Write a report stating that

you identified this woman at the trial,

and that you put a tail on the scooter

afterwards. Are we clear?

- Yes.

Are we done?

- What are you doing here?

- We had a deal.

Tense music plays.

...

Are you OK?

Did they do anything to you?

...

OK, come on then.

Go on, inside.

...

Hello Laure, it's Josephine.

*- Yes?

- Souleymane has just been released.

- How do you know? Did he call you. Have you seen him?

- Listen, he's safe and sound. That's all I can tell you.

- Thanks ... for letting me know.

Boss!

- Yes.

- Souleymane has been released.

- How do you know that?

- I just spoke to Josephine ... Karlsson.

- Do you believe her?

- Well .. In this case, I don't know why she would lie.

- OK, that's good news.

I'll tell the judge, she called me.

We're going to question the kid again. He'll give up the people who abducted him.

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

You don't want to put pressure on him. Otherwise you risk putting him to danger again.

- What do you suggest?

- We have GPS tracking on the scooter,

which has been in district 16 for the last 2 hours.

- Whoa, whoa, whoa!

- We have to go, right?

- No, no, no.

Not until you send the judge the surveillance report.

I don't want to tell her we're making progress and have her ask me how.

- It's already done.

- OK.

Gentle music plays.

...

Someone knocks at the door.

- Yes?

- I came as quickly as I could.

I have some news. Souleymane has been released.

- That's great.

But that's not why I asked to see you.

Have a seat.

I received a surveillance report shortly after I refused

a request from Captain Amrani to place a tracking device.

- Yes, my men spotted this woman at the trial.

They saw that she was connected to the mule and they decided to follow her.

- Except the report describes a surveillance which began by the Palace of Justice in Fragonard Street.

It so happens I know this road very well. It's been under repair

for the last 6 months, and is completely impassable.

So this report is false and completely unusable.

Your team placed a tracking device on the scooter?

- I authorized them to do so, yes.

It was you who suggested that it might be necessary at times to disobey an order.

- So that gives you the authority to do whatever you want?

- No, hang on. You and I, we're the same.

- We see things from our offices,

on paper, in procedures.

My men are on the ground. That's something else entirely.

So, when Berthaud told me that the scooter could lead us to Amine's killer,

well, I didn't ...

Frankly, if you hadn't been familiar with Fragonard Street, it would have worked out well for all of us.

For you most of all.

- Why not a classic tail?

- Have you ever tried to tail a scooter?

Troubling music plays.

...

- OK, I get it!

Take me back.

- Hang on, hang on.

Are you OK?

(- I'm OK.)

I was really pissed off. I said: "No, you're mistaken, I've never seen him",

but the guy insisted, he said "Wait, I'm sure it was you I saw. You're Martin's girlfriend."

- OK. So he's a complete dimwit.

- Exactly. In the end, I gave in and I told him:

"Yes, we know each other. It was me who indicted you two months ago."

They laugh.

- That must have put him at ease.

- It's crazy.

The guy spends two hours in my office,

and when he see me again, the first thing he can think of is that I'm his mate's girlfriend.

In his imagination, I can't possible be an investigating judge. It doesn't fit.

- Perhaps he thinks you're too attractive.

Shall we order dinner?

(- Shit ...)

- What is it?

- The guy who just came in.

(He's the Deputy Prosecutor-General.)

- We're allowed to have a drink, aren't we?

(- Not really.)

(- Will he imagine something else?)

(- Well, yes.)

- OK.

Well, in that case, I'll leave first,

I'll wait for you outside and we'll find a restaurant.

- Or, you leave first,

but I'll tell you what.

We make pasta at my place.

- I'll have to thank the Deputy Prosecutor General.

- Forget it.

I didn't really know that guy.

Gentle music plays.

...

- Fine.

- How are you, Mario.

- You still here?

- Yeah. Stay there. You need to find another spot.

- What are you playing at?

- I'm tired of seeing his ugly mug.

- I'll be back.

- You don't know who you're dealing with.

- Oh, I do. You were born in Stains in 1984.

You were charged with gang violence.

- Hey, shut the fuck up.

- Huh?

You got three years.

- I don't give a fuck.

- Oh, yeah? You've got the cops on your arse, you fucker.

I don't know where you live, but I make one call

and the cops come barging in.

- Stop mouthing off.

You're just a cop who got busted.

Don't play the heavy with me.

- Don't go anywhere, OK?

This guy doesn't get in.

- Can I borrow your phone?

- Hey, don't go.

(I'll be right with you.)

- Yeah, Vincent?

Can you run a license plate for me?

I borrowed a phone.

Charlie, Charlie, 148, N, T.

November, Tango.

- What the fuck are the rest of them doing?

Hey, which one of you three bozos is

Marie-Jeanne Delacour?

She would like to get her car back some time.

- Was that your mum?

She went for a ride in my car and she loved it.

- Is there a problem here?

- Yeah. You see,

we don't blow cops.

OK guys, let's get out of here.

- What just happened?

- I told them to stop bothering us.

- Don't take the piss.

- I'm not taking the piss.

Look, they're leaving. I told Mario a few home truths

and he didn't like it.

They won't bother us again.

That's what you wanted, isn't it?

- Come on, let go.

Disturbing music plays.

- Slow down, we're getting close.

...

- That's it.

- That's it.

...

- OK, she must live here. We need her name.

- There are at least 300 people living here.

- Do you have a passkey?

- Yeah, hang on.

- Cool.

He knocks on the glass door.

- Laure, come here.

...

- Fuck.

That's the 4x4 the hotel manager told us about.

...

Well, we know where the Alsatian lives.

- The scooter chick could be his girl.

She's the Alsatian bitch.

- That's a weak pun.

Techno music plays.

...

- Can you give this to Emma.

...

- Oh, Gilou.

Come here.

Guys, Gilou. Ahmed.

- How are you doing?

- François.

- How are you doing?

We already met.

At least, I know you.

The armoured car job ...

...

- The dream team.

...

- What's left of it.

- Some of them are collecting benefits.

You did OK

with the Jancos.

- If you're happy, I'm happy.

...

Does he look familiar?

...

- No.

No, no.

Fernando Saballo, known as the Alsatian.

Can you make inquiries about him?

- I'm not in touch with my former colleagues.

- You must have one former colleague

who can give us some information.

- Cisco, forget it.

...

But if the cops are on to him, I'll see him.

...

- Pour me a drink and let's unwind.

...

- You're on benefits, but you still have your Rolex.

- You still have your cop's eye for detail.

They laugh.

...

Intriguing music plays.

...

- Fuck ...

This neighbourhood is dead.

- It's district 16.

- Hmm.

...

OK, he's going to show his face

and we're going home to bed.

She laughs.

He's an idiot ...

An alarm sounds.

...

- I think that's our friend.

- He's black.

There we go.

- There he is.

We've got you now.

The camera shutter fires.

A door opens.

A door closes.

- Is he with us now, Escoffier?

Why did you tell him about the Alsatian?

Tense music plays.

- Because he can be useful to us.

It's convenient to have an ex-cop on hand, right?

- I don't have a good feeling about him.

- Was it you who gave the Jancos the arse?

- How do you think he made it happen?

- Tell me.

- He used Emma's telephone to call someone.

He deleted the number, he doesn't want us to know who it is.

he is much closer to the cops than he says.

...

- OK.

...

We'll test him.
