Good morning, Ms. Nielsen.

(Japanese) - Good morning, Tanaka-san.
- Welcome.

- Hello Mr. Tanaka.
- Ah. Hello.

- How are you?
- Fine. Thank you.

You are out of 12cm cedar bowls, Mr. Tanaka.

Thank you, Ms. Nielsen.
I'll order some more.

- You received the bamboo tea boxes.
- Indeed.

I'll let you borrow her
for the next inventory, promise.

Do you have it in a bigger size?

Thank you...

Can I ask you something?

Can I give you a mission?

- A little side mission?
- No problem.

- No questions asked!
- OK.

- Can you find me some details on this woman?

- Mathilde Nielsen? Who is that, her sister?
- Shh, Arthur!

- At least tell me.
- I said, no questions asked!

She's her sister?

I mean...

Commander Coste.

A body?

Where?

OK, we're on our way.

Why do I know the address, 2 Rue Buffon?

It's the National Museum of Natural History.
We deal with dinosaurs now?

Let's go.

Meet me at the Museum of Natural History,
put everything else aside. Potential crime scene.
- Everything else aside.

Is there a problem?

I must leave right away,
putting everything else aside.

I am sorry.

- No problem.
- I must leave.

- Would you like me to…
- Everything else aside. I cannot do my shopping.

(Thank you for coming so quickly.)

I said, thank you for coming so quickly.

I stopped everything I was doing.
It was really important.

I do not know what to do now.

- You could have met me later.
- You wrote "everything else aside".

- What was so important?
- I was buying groceries for the week.

Oh, that’s not a big deal then!
There are shops all over the place.

I do my grocery shopping
on Monday mornings.

Next time, be more precise.

So "everything else aside",
but only once the current activity is done.

I'll remember that.

Thank you, Commander.

- Hey guys!
- Commander.

Ladies.

The body's upstairs,

in the paleontology wing.
The one with the dinosaurs.

- Can you brief us?
- The victim is Dana Barette.

36 years old,
employee at the National Museum of Natural History.

She worked here in the labs.

- Do we know the cause of death?
- Not yet, but the medical examiner is on it.

Commander. Raymond Stan.
The victim worked with him.

He's yours.
I have business upstairs.

Thanks.

Hello. Commander Coste.

- Was it you who found the body?
- No, it was a janitor.

Did you know Ms. Barette well?

She'd been working as
a lithopreparator for 3 years.

She molded the fossils that we bring
from the excavations.

She was a strange young woman,
but a good asset.

Strange?
- She listened to loud music,

- her looks... you know what I mean.
- No, I don't.

She had piercings, tattoos.

She was a far sight from the old paleontologist
you see before you.

That's a good thing.

Oh dear...

Do you mind
coming to see the body with me?

I need a formal identification.

- No, of course.
- Come.

Restricted area.

This tape is put up by our services.

They're meant for
stopping people outside of our services.

- And you're part of our services, Astrid.
- Ah.

That's her?

Yes, no doubt about it.
She's Ms. Barette.

- You alright, Mr. Stan?
- Yes, thank you.

It's so hard seeing her like this, lifeless.
It's so sudden.

That is not the right part.

The part does not fit.

Wait, she's
an expert in paleontology, too?

I don't know about paleontology
but she definitely knows her puzzles.

This bone does not belong here.

Anatomically, the clips do not match.
There.

That's possible.
Entire skeletons are extremely rare

so most of them are composite.

For example, the diplodocus's femur

comes from a molding
of another sauropod.

- Most people never notice it.
- Astrid is not most people.

Is all that fuss about bones crucial?
'Cause we have a case here!

Thank you, Mr. Stan.
Can you escort him, please?

So Fournier, you're in a good mood today!
I'm delighted.

Could you give us
your conclusions instead?

There are no conclusions yet.
Only inconsistencies.

That's what we're here for.

I found signs of respiratory distress but it
doesn't concur with the examination of the body.

Vital submersion.

Yes?

We note a cyanosis of the fingers,
traces of spume around the nostrils,

swelling of the eyelids.

There is a body of consistent evidence
indicating that this young woman drowned.

Well yes, but no.
It doesn't add up.

Not this time.
Do you see any water around?

No, I do not see any water.
But this woman drowned.

- There is a body of...
- Yeah yeah, alright. I got the gist.

I was not done.

Anyway, a drowning can't be determined just by looking.
You'd need to open the body.

Indeed.

I don't even know why I consider this,
it's absurd.

I mean, drowning?!

How much would you bet, Fournier?

I did not do my grocery shopping for the week.
I do not know what to do.

You know what?
I saw a shop around the corner.

You do your shopping,
we put everything in my car,

and I'll bring you home.
Sounds good?

Not at all.
That is not how it works.

I have to go to
the Criminal Documentation,

see if I can find something on the victim.
That is the priority.

Don't worry, Astrid.
We're gonna find a solution.

I... I do not know, Commander.

I do not know.
It is-

It is 11:07 am.

11:07 am.

Fournier is right.

- It can't be a drowning.
- I disagree.

Someone could have moved the body

and brought it to the gallery
to muddy the waters.

Are you serious?
"Muddy the waters"?

Yes, to cover their tracks,
get them away from the crime scene.

Stop.

- Stop what?
- Spinning the story.

It's the basics.

You don't make up evidence
to suit your narrative.

I get that you want Astrid to be right,
but you have to be real, Raph!

- Did we find the victim's phone?
- Not yet.

I spoke to the provider,
her phone stopped transmitting

Friday night around the Museum.

Was is stolen?

No idea, but either way
it won't help us retrace her steps.

I got her parents,
almost all of her colleagues,

nobody knows what she was doing.

- So we've got nothing.
- We do, we have a video.

There's a surveillance camera
on an ATM facing the Museum.

We clearly see Dana Barette
entering the building at 1 am.

So no on the drowning.

If she entered alive, I don't know how
she was drowned inside the Museum.

- Wait, Nico...
- Raph!

- Ok, no drowning.
- Thank you!

Meet me at the Criminal Documentation
as soon as possible.

Ah? A new puzzle.

It is not a new puzzle.
It is in fact one of the oldest on earth.

It is also one of the most intricate.

The first time,
it took me a few days to solve it.

Doesn't seem that hard to me.

This one has 5 rings.
It needs 31 moves to be solved.

When there are 8 rings,
it needs 170

and with 10 rings,
682 moves.

- Wow!
- Have a seat.

I found a case
with the victim's name in it.

Oh yeah?
We didn't find anything in our files,

- not even a police record. She's Snow White!
- No, she is Dana Barette.

You did not find anything because
she was cleared of all charges.

On which case?

- Fossil trafficking? You're kidding!
- I am not kidding.

Dana Barette was a former fossil trafficker
AND worked at the Museum.

- Fossil trafficking isn't a serious motive.
- It is.

A month ago, a skeleton of theropod
has sold for more than a million dollars.

Holy cow!

Serious motive indeed.

There was another name in the file,
Pierre Venkman.

He was found guilty
and incarcerated for 6 months.

Very serious motive!

Speaking of skeletons,

Fournier wants to see me in forensics.

Did you get it? Skeleton.

Skeleton of theropod,
he is a medical examiner.

It was a joke.

Yeah.

Nice tattoos.

A B C D 1!

What is A B C D 1?

Not a clue.

It looks like
some sort of spider web.

It's the Darwin's phylogenetic tree.

- You should know about it.
- Ah!

I know of Darwin's phylogenetic tree.

It is a diagram describing
the relationships among biological species.

Each node is a common ancestor.

I did not know that representation.

This one is a copy
of the first sketch Darwin drew

in his "notebook on transmutation of Species".

Fournier!
You're trying too much.

Just admit that you looked it up
on Wikipedia to impress us.

Not at all.

In any case, it's no big deal.

It would have been creative
on a baker's shoulder, but

on a paleontologist's...
Darwin...

Nevertheless, she had her job in her skin.

It's no small thing.

I didn't get a tattoo of the emblem
of the "36" on my shoulder!

Anyway, what's the cause of death?

Well...
There is pulmonary edema, that's for sure.

Lungs are congested and...

hemorrhagic spots
around the subpleural membrane.

So?

Here, you done?

There is no doubt: this woman...

- drowned.
- Thank you.

Wait a minute, I'm not sure I understand.

The girl entered the Museum,

alive and well, at 1 am,

and she's found still inside the Museum,
drowned, 6 hours later?

There was water in her lungs.

And do we know
where that water comes from?

Fournier sent the diatoms to the lab,
we're waiting on results.

And what about
this Ophelie's private life?

- You mean Dana's?
- No!

Ophelie!
Hamlet's drowned person!

Shakespeare?

Anyway, what about her private life?

The girl was at
the lab's Museum every night.

She didn't have many friends,
a few lovers but nothing serious.

You should look for a Pierre Venkman,
a private paleontologist.

- A first suspect?
- Maybe. Astrid recovered a case file

with his name next to our victim's.

She was cleared
but the guy got 6 months.

She could be the reason behind it?

This was fossil trafficking related

so I don't know if he's still dealing
but we should dig around.

Dig around a paleontologist, good one!

- It is not working.
- What isn't working, Astrid?

Suppose her head was forced into a bucket,
there would be traces on her plexus.

But, in the file,
it says that she fought on her stomach.

Maybe there are bathtubs in the lab,
but why would her clothes be dry?

Or she was drowned naked
and dressed again,

but there should be traces.
There are always traces.

Thank you, Mrs. Nielsen.
Well, that's a lot of information.

I think we should grab some fresh air.

We'll resume later.

- You okay?
- It is 1:10 pm.

You should tidy your desk.

Coming with me, Astrid?

Congrats on the drowning.

I knew you were right.

One cannot be wrong,
I do not like being wrong.

But I cannot find
a solution entirely satisfactory.

I thought you liked enigmas?

It's not that I like them,
but rather that I cannot resist them.

As long as it stays unresolved,

I will not be able to focus on anything else.
It is exhausting.

Want me to bring you home?
You don't seem too good.

No, thank you Commander.

I do my grocery shopping
on Monday mornings.

Hey!

You'll never guess what is up
for auction right now.

- I don't know, dinos?
- Fossils at least.

And believe it or not, a theropod's skull
was just added to the index at the last minute.

- The price?
- €150,000.

- No details on their origins, but we have the seller's name.
- Pierre Venkman.

Exactly.

Find me everything on that guy: phone location,
security number, underwear brand.

Send it all to me by e-mail,
I'll use that to grill him.

I'm going there,
you're supposed to grill witnesses while you can.

- Don't grill him too much.
- That depends on him!

Lot number 8!

We present you this set of fossils
from the upper cretaceous.

For this lot,
bidding starts at €20,000.

20,000 on the block, for now.

25,000! The bid is here.

25,000 for now.

30,000!

30,000. The bid is here.
What do we say?

30,000 from the mister.
35,000!

35,000 on my right.
Against you, sir.

40,000!

40,000 now.
The bid is at 40,000.

Sorry.

40,000.

What do we say?

40,000. The bid is here.

- Sorry.
- 45,000!

45,000!

50,000. Thank you.

55,000!

55,000. New bid, 3rd row.

55,000 from the lady.

55,000 for now.

Do you mind?
I'm really interested in that lot but

we could grab a drink later
if you'd like?

Is that how you flirted
with Dana Barette?

I beg your pardon?

Dana Barette.

The young woman who sent you to jail.

Because...

I see guys like you coming
from a mile away.

A bit paternalist,

- sure to be irresistible.
- 65,000 from the lady.

- Me?
- 70,000!

What the hell?
Dana is a friend, that's all.

Was.

She's been murdered.

75,000 from the lady.

That can't be.

I saw her just 3 months ago,
she was...

You're lying, Mr. Venkman.

Your phone betrayed you.

You spent quite some time near
the National Museum of Natural History

at the same time
your friend was murdered.

Do we do this the easy way,

or the hard way?

We know Dana used to come back
to the Museum after closing hours.

Mr. Venkman,

it'll take time but
sooner or later, we'll know if

something's missing from the reserve.

Say, something that
could have been sold at auctions.

Look, I don't know if
Dana was dealing anything but

I'm telling you,
I haven't seen her in 3 months.

It's easy to prove.

- Is it?
- Yes.

- I was on an excavation site, in Mongolia.
- Okay.

And do you usually
walk around the Museum at 1 am?

I was at the Museum.

I didn't see her.

- You'll need to do better than that, Mr. Venkman.
- I swear.

She called me asking to see her urgently.
She had something crucial to tell me.

I didn't talk to her,
she left me a voicemail.

You can listen to it if you'd like.

Now we're talking.

Pierre, I need you, it's dead serious.

I discovered something crazy.
But I can't tell you here.

Come to the Museum, please.

I'll meet you outside.

She never came.

It's still unproven.

Baguenaudier!

- Astrid?
- Hey, are you crazy?

Your condition doesn’t excuse everything.
Get out.

Wait, Nico, wait.

Come, Astrid.

My mechanical puzzle.

The rule, in order to solve it,
is to go backwards to go forward.

The chronology is inverted.

We got it wrong because
we assumed Dana Barette died

when she was killed.

- OK, that's enough.
- Nico, wait.

Go on, Astrid. Take as long as you'd like.
We’re listening.

Dry drowning.

It is extremely rare, especially with adults,
but it does occur.

When swallowing water,
some stays in the lungs.

But the victim is still breathing.

Only, water got into
the pulmonary alveoli

taking over the surfactant liquid
that keeps them inflated.

The mucus congests the lungs
and the person dies long after.

It can take hours.

And the symptoms
are those of a drowning.

I found 3 similar cases in Documentation
in the last 25 years.

1 2 3.
That is what lead us astray.

Dana Barette died on Sunday,

but she was killed the day before.

Thank you, Mrs. Nielsen.

I got hold of Fournier.
Bruises are ante mortem.

And he confirmed dry drowning.

You wouldn't go on vacation together,
but he's one of the best ME in the city.

Congrats, Raphaëlle.

I have nothing to do with it
and neither does Fournier.

You should congratulate Astrid.
She's the one who found the ploy,

even if her methods bother some people.

For fuck's sake, Raphaëlle!
I've got nothing against Astrid,

but can you imagine if
she stumbled on an interview,

right when a suspect
is about to confess?

Without her,
we'd still be stuck, Nico.

- That's not what this is about!
- Captain.

It's a fact, Commander Coste.

As brilliant as she is,
Mrs. Nielsen can't constantly bypass the rules

or we won't get anywhere.
Do you agree?

She needs
an adaptation period, that's all.

- Ok. Now what?
- We released Venkman.

As the crime occurred yesterday,
he has a solid alibi.

He was on the plane from Mongolia.

He landed a few hours
before going to the Museum.

In her message, Dana Barette said
she discovered something crazy.

- Do we know what that was about?
- We could presume it's related to her death.

- Did we make progress on the victim's agenda?
- Not much.

We only got the phone number
she used to call Venkman.

Arthur found the owner,

he confirmed Dana Barette borrowed
his phone at St Lazarus Station.

She told him her phone ran out of battery.
It seemed urgent.

The testimony is credible at 99%.

The call location confirmed it.

We're checking every destination
departing Saint Lazarus Station.

Is Venkman already gone?

He's getting his belongings back.

I don't know what you want to say
but get ready for a bad welcome.

I'm used to it.

Commissioner!

Mr. Venkman!

At the auction, you offered to get coffee,
is it still on?

Are you screwing with me?

- Look, we didn't start on the right foot, I know...
- The right foot?

You ruined a sale I’ve spent 3 months waiting for.
What do you want?

To catch Dana's killer.

I believe you when
you say you were her friend.

What made you change your mind?

If she called you,
it's because she trusted you.

Why does it matter, now?

I need your help, Pierre.

If you think I'm doing this for the money,
you’ve got it all wrong.

You can't imagine
what an excavation site feels like.

The discovery of a rare artefact.

Traces of the past brought to the surface.

Why didn't you do it
through the official channel?

At the Museum?

I would have loved to.

But paleontologists' positions are rare!

After studying for 10 years,
I was broke.

To get a position,
you'd need to wait for an empty one.

In other words, for someone to die.

It'd take a time that I didn't have.

I can understand that.

I can't realize.

Dana is...

She was amazing, that woman.

Able to get everything
she wanted without imposing.

She hated the establishment,
those jerks who stayed within the norms.

You were made for each other.

We even were together for a while,
in the beginning.

To tell you the truth, I kinda suspected it.

But I think life as couple
was not for either of us.

What do you want?

This crazy thing she just discovered,

that she talked about in her voicemail...

- Do you know what it is?
- No, I don't.

But if it was a scientific discovery,

she surely tried to publish it.

You could ask specialized magazines.

And what if it was less...

- reputable?
- No...

I don't see her going back to trafficking.

She was so proud
of getting into the Museum.

This job was her life.

She would never
do something to endanger it.

Never.

Thank you for coming so quickly,
Commander Coste.

I could have never made this request
without a judicial police officer.

Actually,
I thought you took a break...

or did your shopping.

I did not have the time.

And I was at
the Criminal Documentation, where

I tried thinking outside the box

in order to find the answers we need.

Is that why you wanted
the Museum reserve inventory?

Absolutely, yes.

Paleontology and Criminalistics

are quite the same.

- How so?
- The reports found on the shelves

of the Criminal Documentation
are similar to fossils.

The flesh is gone, in this case,

the violence right after the crime is gone,

but the skeleton remains.

The fossil of the investigation
from which we can reconstruct the story,

just as we reconstruct a dinosaur
from some of its bones.

Like a puzzle.

Maybe this woman
acted the same way I do.

Dana Barette never
took part in the excavations,

but if what she discovered
was scientific in nature,

maybe she found it
in the Museum reserves.

Which could explain why
she was coming late at night.

Are you the ones who asked for
a copy of the reserves inventory?

Yes.

Is it related to Dana's death?

It's classified.
Is there a problem?

Not at all.

As long as you have
something to bring them with.

Ah, it's...

Yes, dematerialization of the inventory
is not quite finished.

And five centuries of expeditions,
that's a lot.

Only 10% of the pieces
are displayed in the Museum.

We're gonna call a courier.

Do we send this
to the Documentation, Astrid?

Astrid?

We need to go to the morgue.

- What, now?
- Yes, now.

Yes.

Well.
Thank you, Mr. Stan.

What about the boxes?

We’ll send somebody for them.
Thanks!

Here.

Yes?

Yes, Astrid?
Yes?

Here.

Yes, what?

The branch.

It is there, but not here.

No kidding,
did you see that Fournier?

Yes, I see it.
It's Darwin's phylogenetic tree.

It kinda feels like déjà-vu.

There's one branch too many.

With three ramifications.

What do you mean?

Here, look.
Here!

There’s one more branch
than on Darwin's original.

Ah, yes, yes.
So what?

Her tattoo artist overdid it a little,
I don't see the connection.

No,
the ink looks fresher on the new branch.

Look closely, Fournier.

It means that it was added after.

Thank you, I did get that.

You are welcome, Dr. Fournier.
It was my pleasure.

I don't know what
she wanted to tell Venkman,

but it was important enough
to get it inked onto her skin.

Are you sure this is it?

Absolutely.
This is the address Venkman gave me.

Ah.

It is still a bit of
a strange establishment.

He told me it was here that Dana Barette
had her tree tattooed 10 years ago.

It would make sense
that she came back for its cutting.

- The skin remains but not the skull.
- Ah, yes.

What a wonderful epidermis!

You don't get much sun, do you?

- No touching.
- Oh sorry. I didn't want to startle you.

But as I always say,
the skin of the face is the most naked of all.

It's a nudity that is not obscene.

Do not look for shamelessness
in my expression.

Excuse me, are you a tattoo artist?

It came to me by force of circumstances.

I was studying skin biology
but I was not made for the college life.

Let's say that tattooing
was closer to my sensibility.

I see.

Raphaëlle Coste, Police Commander
and this is Astrid Nielsen, Criminologist expert.

- Dana Barette, do you know her?
- Dana?

But of course,
she's the one who got this brilliant idea

- of Darwin's sketch.
- The phylogenetic tree.

And are you the one
who added a branch to her tattoo?

How could you imagine that she got her tattoo,

my tattoo, transformed
by someone other than me?

Do you know why she made an extension?

Of course. She had discovered the fossil
of a new species of dinosaurs.

A new species of dinosaurs?
That's amazing, isn't it?

Sorry to disappoint you,
but we discover a new species of dinosaur

every time someone flips a rock.

Ah. So what was so exceptional
about that fossil then?

She pretended that it put into question
the classification of theropods.

They belonged to the clade of Ornithischians,
and not the one of Saurischians.

- Uh... Can you possibly write it down?
- I can even tattoo it if you'd like.

I'm kidding of course.

I knew that.

What's bothering you Astrid?
Is it your groceries?

What time does your shop close?

I do not know,
I never go in the evening.

Why?

Because I do my shopping
on Monday mornings, at 9 am, at the opening.

- It has always been like that.
- Wait, you do your shopping for the week,

in the same shop,
every Monday mornings since forever?

Certainly. Don't you?

Uh no.
But how do you manage on vacation?

I take as few days as possible,
only when I have to.

But most of the times,
I stay at home.

No, I meant the shop.
They don’t take vacation days?

Mr. Tanaka is sometimes off work but
there is a replacement for him

and he warns me ahead of time
so I can prepare myself.

Commander Coste.
Is that conversation so important we should have it now?

It's 6:52 pm, we are not optimizing
my chances of finding

the shop still open.

- OK, let's go Astrid. Let’s go.
- Let’s go.

It is closed.

We'll come back tomorrow.

I do my shopping on Monday mornings.
At 9 am. It's 7:32 pm.

I did not buy my groceries for the week.
I have nothing for dinner tonight.

This is the first time
this has ever happened.

Come to my house.
We'll order something and voila?

It was not planned.

You're used to dinner?

So going home without dinner

or coming home with me,
both are unplanned.

But at least, by coming to mine,
you won't be sleeping on an empty stomach.

Come, Astrid!

Besides, I have Théo tonight,
he'll be really glad to see you.

The mathematician Louis Gros theorized
the method to solve the baguenaudier.

He wrote a code in which
0 is an unmounted ring

and 1 is a mounted ring.

Without knowing it,
he invented the Gray code,

spearhead of modern computing.

All of that from a...
a thousand-year-old thingy?

- It's awesome!
- You are just saying that just to please me.

No, I mean it.
It amazes me, really.

And your investigation at the Museum?
How's it going?

Good, pff.

Something about
ornithologist and sorceries.

No, you misunderstood.

Theropods would belong to
the clade of ornithischians

and not the one of saurischians.

What? That's dope!

That is dope.

Ok, so here are the saurischians

and there are the ornithischians.

These are the two
major groups of dinosaurs.

And they needed
a way to classify them.

So, more than 100 years ago,
in England,

a guy used their pelvis to do so.
And everybody said:

okay.

So, they represent theropods

and up until now,
they were listed with the saurischians.

The saurischians.
OK, I get it.

But the new dinosaur
would change everything.

Theropods would now be ornithischians.

It is amazing.

- Don't you think so, Commander?
- Ah, it's amazing!

What's amazing?

Well it would change
the dinosaurs' family tree

that everyone has been working off of
since the 19th century!

Hence the tattoo!

- Exactly.
- Hence the tattoo!

Aren't you awesome!
You know you're awesome.

- What would I do without you.
- Ok, that's enough.

I think Arthur found a motive.

How so?

There was indeed a publication request
in a paleontology journal

but it was not from Dana Barette...

It was from Raymond Stan.

Ah!

Actually, my contact
at the paleontology journal

told me that Raymond Stan
made a publication request for the next issue.

A study he led for 2 years

but then he abruptly changed his mind,

canceled everything,
and made a new request.

Yeah, which is probably an exploitation
of the victim's discovery.

And what was his last study about?

Something I can never
remember the name of...

Ah, here it is.

He was working on a new specimen

from a subgenre of phorusrhacos.

Is it some... spectacular beast?

You wish! It's something they'd be
ashamed to put in Jurassic Park.

Some kind of giant prehistoric bird,
about 2.50 m tall.

So to resume, the highlight of his career
would have been the description

of a giant chicken with ten or so
already identified specimens.

But his little assistant was going to publish

a discovery that would make
her name go down in history.

I get why the old man was pissed.

What's Raph doing, she's super late!

She told me she had
something crucial to do.

Well, let's get to work!

No... my coffee!

That's an obsession, damn!

It's very nice of you to open your shop
for us a little earlier, Mr. Tanaka.

Ms. Nielsen is not quite like
the other customers.

She's not quite like other people either.

She's the only customer
who’s been thoughtful enough to learn

the basics of Japanese so as to
address me politely.

I'm not surprised.

(Japanese) Thank you very much.

Thank you very much, Mrs. Nielsen.
See you next week.

Goodbye, Tanaka-san.

Goodbye.

I don't know how to thank you,
Commander Coste.

It's nothing, it's normal.

No, it is not normal. You don't get it,
I managed to do my grocery shopping on a Tuesday.

I did my shopping.
It is really important.

- Thank you.
- You're welcome, Astrid.

Your colleagues already went through
Mrs. Barette's office, you know?

You know what they say.

If you want something done,
do it yourself.

Oh, I have no problem with it.
As long as I can help.

What bothers me is that I'm certain
the victim made some great discovery.

But I can't find a trace of it.

We didn't find anything on her computer,
and nothing in her office.

Are you sure?
What makes you think that?

We found some e-mails exchanged
between her and the University of Michigan.

Photos, sketches, pages of text.

Something about gastropods,
I didn't understand a thing.

Maybe Mrs. Barette got ahead of herself.

As I told you, she was strange.

You may be right.

Thank you for your time, Mr. Stan.

Arthur, let's go.

Wait! We have to arrest him.

We've got nothing Arthur.
We have no evidence.

Say, didn’t you just plant one of
your famous seeds?

- This story about an e-mail with Michigan?
- Maybe.

- Because, we know there's no such e-mail, right?
- Not in the least.

I knew it!

Now, he thinks Dana Barette
already shared her discovery.

And to check,
he'll have to show his true colors.

Fournier just sent the lab results on the
diatoms found in the victim's lungs.

They match a very specific species
from the mouth of the Touques.

Meaning?

Meaning, the drowning took place
in Deauville or in the area.

Which concurs with the call she made
to Venkman at St Lazarus Station.

So, Raymond Stan's phone
stopped transmitting from Paris

to start again 8 hours later in Picardy
where he has a solid alibi.

Except 8 hours for Paris-Amiens is quite a lot.

- Unless he's making a detour by Deauville.
- Commander,

you have quite the green thumb!

- How so?
- Your seed, it sprouted.

Stan just sent an e-mail to
the University of Michigan.

Congrats.

- You found the needle in the haystack.
- No, I found the fossil of Dana Barette.

And I would never have succeeded
without the e-mail you sent me.

The one Raymond Stan sent to
the University of Michigan.

He is far more precise there
than in his publication request.

That was the goal.

If we'd waited longer,
he could have falsified the elements.

In order to pretend the idea came from him,
he had to act too fast.

And in his e-mail,

he even specified the collection number

of the fossil from which
he made his discovery.

From which he pretended
he made his discovery. Careful.

Naturally, Commander.
NMNH-F-JRN-78.

- Which means?
- NMNH for National Museum of Natural History,

F for fossil,
JRN for Jurassic Reptile Normandy,

78 for the specimen number.

They have a really interesting
classification system.

Did you know their nomenclature
is based upon an

- alphanumeric logarithmic system-
- Astrid, you're wandering off.

What does that NMH thing mean?

NMNH-F-JRN-78.
It is a theropod's ischion.

And in the inventory,

it is written that...

The boxes, Commander Coste.
The inventory is in the boxes.

It is written that Raymond Stan
studied it 3 years ago.

But he described it as an ordinary ischion.

And 3 years later,

he pretends to make a huge discovery
based on the same fossil.

And there is more.

There are release vouchers,

here, which prove that NMNH-

the ischion, ischion is simpler.

That the ischion was
moved out of storage repeatedly,

by Dana Barette.

Yes, that proves that
she's the one who made the discovery,

whereas the poor Raymond only found
a good old bone.

It's funny how she reminds me of you,

with your habit of
finding things others can't see.

Wait a minute!

Do you remember on the crime scene,

you said that a bone didn't fit.

What part of the skeleton was it?

It was an ischion.

Here.
The fossil found by Dana Barette.

A theropod's ischion.

Look, Astrid.

Look carefully.

"Technical and Forensics police. Restricted area

except for accredited personnel".

- I am accredited.
- Come.

I just made a phone call to forensics.

Thank you, Commander Coste.

The fossil has been changed.

This is not the one I saw last time.

Here. The ischion.

That's why she came back
the night of her death,

to get her treasure back.

She would have been interrupted
by the dry drowning.

She probably felt
she was losing consciousness

so she hid it where she thought
nobody would find it,

under everyone's noses,
in the paleontology wing.

But you made Raymond Stan nervous

when you said a fossil
wasn't in the right place.

He replaced it by another,
and took the original.

I am sorry, Commander Coste.
It was my fault. It is because of me.

- No, not at all, Astrid.
- Yes, it is.

On the contrary.

Because now,
I know how to corner him.

Ah.

It's a parking ticket.
I don't see the problem.

It's annoying, isn't it?

They don’t put tickets on the windshield anymore.
And 3 weeks later, bam, €35!

Problem is that this ticket
is for your vehicle in Deauville.

And the Criminal police
deals with parking tickets now?

When someone is not where they're supposed to be,
that is our deal, yes.

There's no law prohibiting me from
passing through Deauville to get to Amiens.

You may be wondering why
I made you wait so long.

One of our teams was doing
a search at your home.

- But you have no right!
- Oh yes, we have.

But don't worry,
everything's been done properly.

And would you believe we found this...

That must have hurt,
to be beaten by a strange kid

with all her tattoos and piercings.

Not only would you miss out
on the opportunity of a lifetime,

but on top of that,
you would be taken for an idiot.

You're not murderer material, Stan.

When I first saw you at the gallery,

I thought you were disturbed by
the death of your assistant.

But it was the guilt.

You killed Dana in Deauville

and you found her under your nose
the following day.

You'd have to be disturbed.

Everything's pointing at you, Mr. Stan.

You don't know what it's like
to kill someone.

I held her head under water for so long.

It felt endless.

She was fighting back and then,

nothing.

But she wasn't dead.

She must have gotten up
a few seconds later.

I wasn't there anymore.

I left once
I realized what I'd done.

So I thought I was going crazy when

they told me
they found her body in the gallery.

You suggested going to Deauville
to celebrate her future success,

and when she told you
about her discovery,

you immediately thought about
getting rid of her.

Don't you understand, it was disgusting!

After 40 years of career!

I licked everybody's boots.

I did everything according to the rules,
and she was going to

steal my only chance
to make myself a name!

Her!
Who never abided by the rules,

with her piercings
and her crappy music!

You're right...

Maybe it’s because
she was outside of the box

that we'll remember her name
and we'll forget yours.

Well, that's it.

Everything for a bruised ego,

the little punk assistant
beating out the wise scientist.

He couldn't let it go, you see?

No.

I have been reading reports
for 19 years,

and I understand better
HOW people kill each other.

I still cannot understand WHY.

In Japanese culture,
everything is codified.

Everything has a meaning.

It's a little similar for Astrid, isn't it?

Rituals are of
a major importance for her.

They are landmarks

that allow her not to lose herself.

You know her well.

She's been coming since forever.

And then,
Ms. Nielsen learned Japanese.

Learning about autism
was the least I could do.

And what did you learn?

People on the autism spectrum
are very sensitive.

They have hundreds of pieces of information
to process at the same time.

And sometimes it's hard
to sift through it all.

So, trying to predict the unpredictable

allows them to be more prepared.

But, huh...

life is very unpredictable.

Especially in our line of work.

So,

you would have to learn
to predict the unpredictable.

Find new landmarks

to help face unexpected situations.

- I don't know how to do that!
- You don't have to "do".

You just have to "be".

I saw how Ms. Nielsen
acted around you.

You're becoming one of her landmarks.

(Japanese) Thank you very much.

Here we are. Our new ritual.

Every Monday evening,
you'll come eat with us.

And it's not unexpected
since it's planned.

If it is planned,
it is not unexpected.

Exactly.

Excuse me...

- Hello?
- Good evening Commander.

I'm sorry to disturb you this late.

I just called to tell you I found some info
on the side mission you gave me.

So?

Mathilde Nielsen is Astrid's mother.

She spent the last 20 years
in the United States,

and she came back to France
last month for medical reasons.

Thank you, Arthur.

I also found
her current address if you want it.

And a phone number.
You gonna tell Astrid?

I don't know, Arthur.

I don't know.
