DRUG DEALING IN...

Inspector Carlo Guerrieri, please leave a message.

Go, go! C'mon, back to me!

And now hurry!

-He's amazing. -I know.

-What did he do? -Nothing.

But I need you to find him.

He might have changed lifestyle, he might be dead, missing.

Last time I arrested him he was dealing for a certain Danilo Bosca.

The bone guy from the Torrevecchia work site?

He was dealing in Ostia.

-Do I have to go to Ostia? -If need be, yes.

-There's the sea, the beach... -And how do I get there?

In a car, preferably not a stolen one.

Well? So you like this football?

Coming in for a tackle.

Don't take it to school, they'll steal it. -Thanks for the ball. -My pleasure.

Shall we go?

Dad?

Dad, are you home?

JUST MARRIED

DRUG DEALING IN OSTIA

"Carlo, I can't go on living.

You're stronger, take care of Alba and forgive me.

I love you both, Clara."

Sorry, I got here as fast as I could.

Sorry to make you rush over, I didn't want to be on my own.

What happened? Did you have a fight?

No, I went home, but he wasn't there.

So why are you so upset?

I found a note from my mother.

They always told me it was an accident,

but instead she committed suicide.

Where did you find it?

In a box on the table.

A box my father keeps in a storage closet.

When I was little he didn't want me to go near it.

I always thought it was because there was an old gun in there,

but it was because of the note.

You need to speak to your father immediately. -I feel betrayed. -He didn't betray you.

Yes, he did, he lied to me. I'm not a child anymore.

He protected you from what would have hurt you more.

He's your father, he lives for you.

-Good morning, Inspector. -Hi, Marco.

The victim's name was Hassan Anquud.

The wife called it in, she was sent a video of the attack.

She came here but it was too late.

The owners of the restaurant live there. Vera Fabioli and her son Angelo.

I rang their buzzer, no one's home.

What role did the victim have in the restaurant?

He was the manager, he worked with his wife.

They worked in the kitchen and on the floor.

Then they had a waiter: Ludovico Ciardi, 20, clean record.

Who was the last to see the victim last night?

No one, it was the weekly closing day.

Did they arrive together?

Who?

No.

Yeah, they arrived together.

You're lying to me now?

Let me in. It's my mother's restaurant.

-What's going on? -The kid insists on coming in.

I'm Inspector Guerrieri, you?

Angelo Fabioli, I live here.

My mother is the owner of the restaurant.

Thank you.

Unfortunately there's been a murder in your restaurant.

A murder?

-And who...? -Hassan Anquud.

-That's not possible. -When did you see him last?

Two days ago, but he was relaxed, we chatted a little.

You said you live here. Is your mother home?

No, this morning I drove her to my sister's in Latina,

I just got back.

-So you were all home last night? -Yes.

And you didn't notice anything?

Not a thing.

Do you know Hassan well?

We rented him the property about six months ago.

My mother was against it, but we've never had any problems.

What do you mean she was against it?

She has her own ideas, you know how it is,

foreigners arouse suspicion in people.

We'll need to talk to your mother too, please stay available.

I can't let you in because Forensics are in there.

-Thank you, see you soon. -Goodbye.

I was looking for you.

You found me. What's up?

He died of blood loss, between 9:00 p.m. and 1:00 a.m. last night.

The killer was careful not to cut any major blood vessels.

Why do you say careful?

Whoever did this wanted to make him suffer,

or they would have killed him straight off.

Are there signs of a struggle?

No signs of a struggle.

That's all I got.

OK.

Inspector?

See you. Coming.

Here's the murder weapon.

A kitchen knife.

No prints, in the video the guy's wearing gloves.

As for the rest, the crime scene's a disaster, his wife came in.

She tried to untie him, she knocked the chair over.

-You can imagine. -Thank you.

-And here? -It was forced open.

He was probably holding it when he was attacked,

maybe he was expecting someone.

-The register? -It hasn't been touched.

Nor was the cash in his pocket, around 300 euros.

-Where's the wife? -In there, I'll go get her.

No one had threatened him, he got on with everybody.

How was the restaurant doing? Why was he here, if it was closed?

He didn't tell me.

The restaurant's doing well, it never gave him any problems.

Weren't you worried when he didn't come home last night.

We had a fight, I wasn't home.

It happened last night?

A few days ago.

A friend of mine's out of town and she left me her apartment.

And the reason for the argument?

The restaurant.

When husband and wife work together it can happen.

Were you in a relationship before you met Hassan?

No, why?

Was anyone against the marriage? Your family for example.

My family couldn't care less what I do,

I haven't spoken to them in ages.

Did you say that for me?

-What? -That thing about the family against it.

You're way off, I wouldn't like you even if you were Swedish.

Alba's an adult, she can do what she wants.

If you make her suffer I'll rip your head off.

You should talk, I'm not the one making her suffer.

I'm her father and I only want her to be happy.

What you want, I still don't understand.

Go to the victim's house with Forensics, I'll see you at the station.

To kill him like this, the murderer was crazy or he really hated him.

Or both those things.

After this brilliant investigative hunch, coffee break.

Did you know my mom?

Yes, I met her often, but I can't say I really knew her.

Did you know she committed suicide?

Come with me.

I've known your father for nearly 30 years,

but back then we didn't work together because he was in Ostia,

where he met Clara.

Two months late... married.

Then when they moved to Rome it was easier to meet them.

-What was she like? -Your mom?

Identical to you, beautiful.

And she was unhappy?

She wasn't unhappy, she was...

distant.

And my dad?

Crazy about her, completely.

Then I went back to Milan

and when I came here because I got tenure,

your mom was gone.

It's always been impossible to talk to him about it.

But suicide is no small thing.

How come it was never mentioned?

Everyone always talked about an accident.

Your mother had taken a few days off,

no one knows what happened on that ferry.

They never found her again.

You need to talk to your dad about it.

He's the only one who can explain to you what happened.

Thanks.

This is the bit we're interested in,

but apart from this, there's nothing important.

The guy pushes the door like he thinks it's open.

Then the bottle, the glasses... they had an appointment.

-Let's identify him. -Of course.

The victim's cell phone?

It was turned off last night after the murder

and turned back on for a few seconds to send a text to his wife.

Hopefully it was long enough to track it.

It really does look like an execution.

I have some interesting news.

Hassan Anquud had 50,000 euros in the coffee jar

and no trace of a female presence in his apartment.

The wife talked about a temporary separation.

If so, it's been going on for a while,

they've been married for six months and the neighbors have hardly seen her.

-Let's call her in. -No, let's wait.

They did this to the husband, but they sent the video to the wife

and it's no small thing.

Let's see why she lied to us and we'll present her with a fait accompli.

All right, Guerrieri, we'll do as you say.

Keep me informed, thank you.

She's much better than you at pretending.

I know.

How do we proceed?

Well?

Go ask your friend.

-What's going on? -What's going on...?

We were all happier before Carta and Malik came.

The waiter is here, shall I take him in to Carlo?

No, I'll do it.

Good morning, this way.

Do you miss him?

Who, Matteo? No.

Every time I see him I wonder what I was thinking.

-Sometimes I wonder too. -Did he get you pregnant too?

No, I mean Bianca.

It's not true that the restaurant was going well, it wasn't.

We were often empty.

Hassan's wallet was always full and he wanted us to see it.

Where do you think all that money came from?

Dunno. I've always wondered myself.

-Was he dealing drugs? -Not that I know of.

What was Hassan like? Did you get on?

He was arrogant, he treated me like dirt.

He hired white kids because he liked to see them serve black people.

I know you're pissed off, but...

Not everyone reacts like Hassan.

-What kind of clientele did he have? -Whoever came in.

Although he preferred people of color.

He married a white woman, though.

Yeah, but they were about to separate. They fought a lot, she was jealous.

The more jealous she was, the more Hassan did things in front of her.

He liked humiliating people.

Ever seen him?

No.

-I don't think so. -Where were you last night?

I was at the Vixen.

It's a disco bar, I work there too when the restaurant is closed.

If you need, I have a lot of witnesses. Request the file and get it to me.

Malik.

-How's your investigation going? -It's going.

The work site where they found the bones had been closed for years.

When they poured the cement, Bosca was already under it.

We asked for tests on Muzo's old gun.

And...?

The bullet wasn't compatible with the one that killed Bosca.

It's not funny, find that gun.

I gotta go, excuse me.

How are you?

Not great...

I can't stop thinking about that note.

Is he in? I have an update.

He's in his office, come.

I don't like the way that woman looks at me.

And the way your father looks at me is quite something, too.

My father is my father, she's just your boss.

The killer got him from behind and chloroformed him.

Hassan fell forward without resisting.

The wounds on the face are from the impact with the glass.

The swab was pressed with great strength

by someone as tall as the victim.

-So, a man. -I think so.

Good.

-I'm off. -Bye, Alba.

Bye, Dad. See you later.

-May I? -Of course.

What is it?

The video of Hassan's death

was sent from his phone

also to a certain Gabriella Simondi.

Who is she?

She runs an agency that handles administrative procedures.

Given the number of calls between her and Hassan

I'd say she should be questioned.

Yes, madame, what is it?

Hello.

No, do you mind if we speak later?

Yes, thank you, goodbye.

-Gabriella Simondi? -Yes?

I'm Inspector Guerrieri from the Rione Monti police station.

My colleague Muzo.

We'd like to ask you a few questions about Hassan Anquud's death.

And about the video you received this morning at 8:23.

I don't know what you're talking about.

Don't even try, we have the phone records.

And we have all the calls made to each other.

Yes, Hassan and I were in a relationship.

Since when?

Tomorrow it would have been four months.

Why didn't you call the police when you received the video?

Because I was upset.

I went straight to the restaurant, you were already there.

His wife was there too, pretending to cry.

Pretending?

Yes.

She hated him, I'm convinced it was her.

Did you know Hassan's wife got the video at the same time?

If there's a tie between you and his wife, tell us.

Like someone who wanted revenge.

No.

No, none.

I can't get the video out of my head.

If I had a cent for every lie I've heard I'd be rich.

Let's run some checks and keep an eye on her.

This is new.

I promised Olga, I have to quit smoking.

We thought we'd try for a baby.

-You don't say. -It was my idea.

-Yours? -Why not?

Maybe my biological alarm clock went off.

For a few months she'll be huge like Repola and no one will look at her.

I wanted Alba too.

And now I'm not talking to her because of that asshole.

It's your fault, you never say stuff straight out.

You never tell her how things really are, why?

I'm too pissed right now.

When I saw them kissing I wanted to strangle them both.

I know I should mind my own business, but I don't want her to suffer.

Why don't we go away for the weekend? Maybe to the seaside.

I really like it out of season.

Did you hear me?

What do you say?

What are you doing?

I wanted to surprise you, but you caught me.

What is it?

At least that much you can find out by yourself.

It's a charm bracelet.

Now...

close your eyes and make a wish.

Done.

Thank you.

Where are you going at this hour?

I have to check some documents for Carlo

and it's best if I get to the office before the others.

All right.

Why? The light's beautiful.

So are you

and you go around the house naked.

-And this summer at the beach? -We'll go to the mountains.

Hi, baby.

Good morning.

I'll be ready in a minute.

-Thank you. -Here's your coffee.

Tell me.

I found the information you needed.

We know when Bosca died.

The building site was for a public housing project.

The first layer of cement, that Bosca's remains were found under,

was poured on September 15, 1993.

Then work was postponed

and only resumed a few months ago.

"Preparation of material for first pouring, 1993."

So Bosca's remains were under there since the first pouring

on September 15, 1993.

Clara disappeared three days later, on September 18.

The two things aren't necessarily connected.

But they are, Clara ran away out of fear.

Ran away?

Who knows what those two were up to in Rome,

while she swore it was all over with that scumbag?

So you think Clara ran away?

Maybe I've never really believed that Clara is dead,

not even when it seemed I did.

I don't know, Mario, I don't know what to say.

"Work commences July 1993."

You did it, good job.

De Franchi will be pleased.

I'm not the only one who knows when Bosca died.

Most of the documents you saw are also in Muzo's drawer.

-How's that possible? -Easy. Muzo's investigating with Carlo.

This might mean that Carlo has nothing to do with Bosca's death,

he's trying to find out who killed him.

Or maybe they're trying to bury everything.

Good morning.

Don't look at me, I'm a mess, I didn't sleep a wink.

You look beautiful, don't be silly.

They've arrested the boy in the video.

Nabil Sellimi, Tunisian, clean record.

Where did they find him?

The owner of the restaurant saw him outside the entrance

and when he snuck in the rear she called the police.

OK, let me know when he gets here.

Are you OK?

You?

Last night, I was thinking I'd miss you when I go on maternity leave.

But I think it's the hormones because I cried too.

Wait.

You wouldn't be a bit scared of not coping on your own?

Maybe.

But you're strong.

Come here.

Back to work.

An easy question first up: why were you at the restaurant this morning?

I was looking for Hassan, I didn't know he was dead.

So why did you run away?

Someone like me, even if I've done nothing, you think I have.

And the fact that I'm here is proof of that.

A colleague.

Well?

His ID's all good but his work permit is about to expire.

-Is that why you ran? -No.

A guy has promised that he'll hire me.

-A guy, who? -I don't remember his name.

I have to go to the work site on Monday.

Why were you looking for Hassan?

I'm getting married tomorrow, we were supposed to have the reception there.

Congratulations.

Where were you last night after you left the restaurant?

At home. I live with four people, they all saw me.

What did you say your fiancée's name is?

Lara Donato.

She's from Rome, we've been engaged for a year

and we met in Malaga.

All right, you're free to go.

We might need to contact you again.

Close it.

Ottavia, since when do I have to chase after you to talk to you?

-I haven't found anything. -Then get busy.

-Shall I come back? -No, come in.

I wanted to update you on the case.

Hassan filed for separation two months after the wedding.

At first she agreed, but then she changed her mind.

Get her in here, tell her we have some news.

That's not all.

Hassan was Petra's second husband.

The first was Albanian and their marriage was even shorter.

Do we have Petra's phone records?

Yes, I wanted to talk to you about that, too.

There are a few weird calls

between her and the restaurant owner's son.

-How many? -Enough.

None the day of the murder, none yesterday and one this morning.

Calls with a weird pattern.

That's the way Hassan was, but I loved him anyway.

A weird kind of love,

seeing as you filed for separation and you don't live together.

Actually, I changed my mind.

Something you didn't do with your previous husband.

He used to beat me up.

-Do you know Gabriella Simondi? -Yes.

She helped Hassan with permits,

she has an agency that does these things.

She didn't just help with permits, they've had an affair for four months.

She was one of the many.

Did you know they sent the video to her too?

How could I know that?

Is there anyone who might want to threaten the two of you?

I don't know, I can't think of anyone.

At your husband's place we found 50,000 euros in cash.

Hassan didn't talk to me about these things.

Did you tell him you call the restaurant owner's son?

Angelo is kind, he calls to say when he's coming to dinner.

At night, too?

It was for a while, but only because... He saw me crying on the street and came over

and we spoke for a while, we became friends.

When did your friendship start with Hassan's wife?

It depends what you mean. I occasionally ate the restaurant.

And you often called her.

Yes, we spoke, it's true.

She was unhappy, she'd only just married and was already separating.

And you consoled her.

It's not what you think, I only gave her advice.

This has been bugging me... Look at these photos.

Only the bride and groom are different.

The guests, black and white, are always the same.

-Fake marriages? -Yes, for residence permits.

It works like this: 100 euros to the guests and 3,000 to the bride or groom.

Once the marriage is celebrated, they each go their own way.

Simondi's agency takes care of that too,

we've found the thread that ties her to Hassan and his wife.

Let's say Petra married both times with this mechanism

and the agency did business with the victim.

Who killed him and why?

Someone involved, someone Hassan hadn't paid.

I'd say bring in Nabil and his fiancée.

I'd say let's bring them all in.

Don't eat too much, tomorrow we're going to a wedding.

Hi.

-You look beautiful, so elegant... -Thank you.

Are you going out?

I'm not staying home dressed like this.

-I'll come back another time. -No, come in.

I'll finish getting ready.

Thanks.

Cristina, I know it's not right, me just showing up like this,

but I wanted to tell you that I've been thinking

and I think you're right when you say

that in all these years I haven't given you anything.

I didn't say that.

The truth is, when you started talking about the future,

the past came crashing down around me.

What does that mean?

I'm under investigation

for the homicide of a drug dealer that happened a long time ago.

Clara was having an affair with him

and she gave him a hand dealing drugs.

When I married her I thought it was over, but it wasn't.

I've discovered she was still helping him.

How do you come into it?

I beat him up

and I removed evidence, I omitted facts in my report.

-Why? -To protect Alba.

I always had the truth right in front of me and I didn't want to see it.

I've thought a lot about the two of us lately.

What have you thought?

I've thought that I want to start living again.

I've missed you.

What did you say?

I said I've missed you.

Yes? I'll be right down.

Come in, you're next.

-What do we do now? -I don't know what he's done.

-The witness is here. -Sorry.

-Where were you? -I'm sorry.

Nobody move.

We're sorry to break up the party.

How does it go? "For better or for worse."

Come on, everyone to the station. The bride, too.

Now, let's talk about this great love story.

Go in, it's not dangerous.

It'll be like a movie.

My compliments, a beautiful wedding.

You'd better give us some names, if you want to get out of here.

I have all the time in the world.

Where did you meet?

-In Spain. -In Malaga.

When?

-A year ago, in March. -Last year.

Good, you've learned the part well.

Let's cut it out, we know you don't know each other

and that this wedding is only for a residence permit.

What role did Hassan play?

-A lady from an agency sent me to him. -It's not true!

Anyway they figured it all out.

I gave him half, she and the guests are paid in advance.

I was to pay the other half later in the restaurant.

How much are we talking?

10,000 euros.

Then he and the agency lady would take care of the divorce.

The agency lady? What's her name?

Gabriella Simondi.

You can go, thank you.

It seems they named you.

Did you find these poor wretches who got married and divorced over and over?

No, I don't know how it works, Hassan organized everything.

Before Hassan got involved, you ran it all on your own

and you didn't share a cent with anyone,

then he started asking for more.

Where were you the night of the murder?

Are you crazy?

I loved Hassan.

What then, did I kill him and send myself the video?

From someone who procures guests, witnesses

reception venue and photographer for 10,000 euros,

anything can be expected.

HASSAN - WIFE - MISTRESS RESTAURANT

Carlo,

our Salerno colleagues have located Hassan's wife's first husband.

Do you know how much she got for marrying him? 3,000 euros.

And they didn't meet again until the divorce.

He moved to Salerno and they never spoke to each other.

Back then Simondi ran everything on her own.

We can hold her for aiding and abetting illegal immigration,

but with the murder we've hit a wall.

Everybody's hiding something, especially Hassan's wife.

If it was her, she didn't do it alone, she's too petite.

They tracked Hassan's phone to when it sent the video to the women.

It's the tower that covers Lungotevere San Paolo.

If the killer had his phone with him, it pinged off the same tower.

Let's get phone tracking for everyone involved in this case.

-There's quite a few of them. -It's not that many.

I'm on it.

Malik, ask your friend Carta to put a bullet on this.

Help Mario, I want all those phone records as soon as possible.

See you tomorrow.

Yes?

-Where are you? -Out, on the restaurant case.

You sound strange.

I was thinking of my mother,

about the fact that no one knew she committed suicide.

-Do you want me to come over? - No.

-Could you do something for me? -Of course, what is it?

When she disappeared there was an inquest.

That's normal, the body was never found.

I know, but...

Could you see if suicide is mentioned in the file?

Sorry, I shouldn't ask.

I'll do it, don't worry.

Thank you.

Well?

Here.

Your dealer doesn't deal anymore,

he works on a building site in Viterbo.

He comes back here on Fridays, this is the address.

Good job.

The total below is my expenses.

120 euros?

Gas, tire wear, meals.

-Meals? -I was on traveling.

I ran around like crazy looking for him.

All right, here.

What's this?

The address of a lady who needs a cleaner.

Try not to get fired after three days.

And my expenses?

-Let's make it 90! -No.

-60? -Not even.

Hi.

Well? Find anything out?

Suicide was considered but it was discarded.

It talks about an accident.

And the note?

My father never handed it in?

It would have come out and he didn't want you to find out.

Yes.

He did it for you.

He didn't want you to suffer like he did.

Sure.

This came out today.

If you had to pick a dress for Olga, what would it be like?

Very long

with a high neckline.

I found someone who dealt for Bosca.

Now that we know when Bosca died, I know what to ask him.

Don't get into trouble making him speak.

I've never tortured anybody,

until now.

I'm coming with you when you go.

What is it, Malik?

The phone records have arrived, we know who killed Hassan.

I'm on my way to the station.

I told you, we were friends.

Come in, take a seat next to him.

We were talking about your friendship.

Going by your phones, on the night of the murder,

between 2:00 a.m. and 4:00 a.m. you were together at your place.

These are your phone records.

If they were together, you were together, right?

But first, still according to your phones,

you were in the same place where they killed Hassan

and you stayed there until after 1:00 a.m.

That's not true, I was at her place,

but I wasn't with Hassan before that.

I live next to the restaurant, that's why our phones come up together.

Stop messing with me.

You killed Hassan, you made the video and you went to her.

I didn't do anything, it was him.

He arrived really upset, covered in blood.

-Hassan made fun of him. -It's not true.

He knew he was in love with me and he did everything to humiliate him.

She asked me to do it.

Hassan was right, you're just a poor fool.

You asked me to kill him.

You wanted the video, you wanted to see him suffer.

It's all her fault.

-Take him away, Malik. -He's a lunatic.

You're a loser!

He might be a loser,

but your husband's phone was next to yours when he sent the video.

You sent the video to yourself and you sent it to Simondi.

-Angelo gave it to me to throw away. -And you did to punish her.

Because she took Hassan away from you.

You started for money but then you fell in love

and you got burned.

Does that seem like love?

What would you know about it?

Take her away, too.

Come on. Your bag.

-Dad? -What is it?

Can we talk? I'm at Villa Paganini.

I'll be right there.

I can't go on like this anymore.

If you're happy with Malik, you don't have to convince me,

I'll deal with it.

The other day I came by to talk to you about me and Malik

and I found Mom's note.

Why did she kill herself?

-Was it my fault? -What are you talking about!

Your mother loved you, she loved you a lot.

I wasn't capable of being close to her, it's my fault.

Yes, but you should have told me.

It's never been easy to talk about it, not even now.

It's not easy for me either.

And if I did, it's also thanks to Malik.

He told me that if you kept the note hidden from me,

-you did it to protect me. -That's for sure.

But I'm strong.

I'm stronger than you think.

I know that you're strong, sweetheart.

A box my father keeps in a storage closet.

When I was little he didn't want me to go near it

because there was an old gun in it.

Hello?

Baby, I spoke to him, you were right.

I love you.

I love you, too.
