His father will be abroad for six months for a mission.
I have a big room in my new apartment. It's perfect.
Raphaëlle, it is the room you use to store your furniture.
I'll do something cozy.
Raphaëlle, you are smoking.
- Not at all. - You are.
No, I'm not smoking.
Raphaëlle, cigarettes kill more than 75,000 people a year in France.
I know, but I can't help it. I have a bad feeling about this case.
I'm in Croatia, 15,000 miles away from my jurisdiction.
I'm escorting a serial killer and I have to team up with a kepi.
Commander Bourgoin is not a kepi. He wears one.
He is a very capable gendarmerie officer of the forensic department.
I know, Astrid. The problem is you're not there.
The real problem, Raphaëlle, is that you are afraid of flying.
Yet, aerophobia is an irrational phenomenon.
You only have a one in 1.2 billion chance of dying on a plane.
Very reassuring to put "die" and "plane" in the same sentence.
Statistically, riding in an elevator is eight times more dangerous.
Thanks, Astrid.
Now I'll be scared on airplanes and in elevators.
Don't overdo it, miss.
- Dried fruits to relax? - I'd prefer a cigarette.
Another one?
The smell.
Our arrival in Paris is scheduled for 3:37 am.
We wish you a very good trip.
I need to pee.
Negative. The toilets at the front are out of order.
No way you're crossing a plane full of civilians.
I don't care, I had a drink and I want to pee.
Bourgoin, I can…
The flight lasts less than 2h30, he can hold it.
The journalists are gonna be so happy. I have so much to tell them.
What does that mean?
That I'm gonna be quite the view with my pants full of piss at the airport.
I'm taking him. Come on, get up.
I'm going to search you.
Ouch, take it easy!
Don't look at me like that.
I'm warning you.
Any wrong move and the journalists will talk about you
in the obituary section, understand?
What is he doing here?
Do not film. Your phone, please.
Calm down!
Noisay, you're good.
- What about inmate privacy? - You'll do without it this time.
Ladies and gentlemen, we are going through some ​​turbulence.
Please fasten your seat belts and put your tray table up.
Noisay, open up!
Noisay!
Tetsuo, you are always very punctual.
- Good morning, Astrid. - Good morning.
I brought something for you.
I hope it is not a gift. I do not like gifts.
It's an object that I want to lend you.
So it is not a gift, it is a loan.
It is a goban, a go board.
It is a board game from China, very renowned in Japan.
- That's right. - I often saw your uncle play it.
I know, he told me.
I would like to play it with you.
I would rather not, it is not a puzzle.
You can still keep it.
You never know.
I made some tea.
Tea is appropriate.
Thank you.
- So, have you heard from Raphaëlle? - Yes.
Her plane took off on time.
Currently, it must be flying over the Adriatic Sea,
and Raphaëlle must not like it one bit.
What do you mean, we can't land?
Before Orly, it will be hard. There's a storm laying waste in the South.
- Was that the turbulence? - Yes.
We had to gain altitude to weaken the shock with the air mass.
Ma'am, could you please move to row 17?
Thank you.
What about my calls to the ground?
I asked Myriam to transfer the plane's WiFi to your phone only.
- Check, it should work. - Thanks.
You're OK? You've recovered from your airsickness.
Planes are not my element, but crime scenes are.
Commissioner? We have a problem.
The Poacher is dead?
10,000 meters above the ground.
The Poacher?
Marc Noisay, known as the Poacher, is a serial killer
who has committed eight murders.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8.
Between September 2016 and February 2018.
You don't remember?
In July 2017, I was taking my high school diploma...
In July 2017, he was slaughtering his seventh victim,
Morgan Philippe, a republican deputy,
- Following a very precise ritual. - Absolutely.
Disemboweled from bottom to top.
Organs emptied. Hands tied to the ankles.
Like game. Hence his nickname.
We tracked this lunatic for over six years.
Three weeks ago, we found his identity by working tirelessly with the gendarmerie.
That's why Raph is teaming up with a kepi to repatriate him from Dubrovnik.
Captain Perran,
Commander Bourgoin is not a kepi, he wears one.
Yes, Astrid.
He's been on the run for 10 days over there.
And? What did he die of?
Nasal, ocular hemorrhage,
not to mention all the bruises along the radial arteries.
The real mystery is these growths on the throat.
Try to exert pressure on it.
What's this with his skin? Looks like bubble wrap, it's gross.
Subcutaneous emphysema.
When you arrested him 48 hours ago,
he tried to escape by sea while diving with bottles, right?
You're thinking decompression accident?
Who's speaking?
- Commander Bourgoin of the gendarmerie. - Hello, Commander. Are you a diver?
A scientific one, I started at our forensic department.
Wait, you're talking about decompression,
but may I remind you that we're in the air, not at sea.
Affirmative. But he dived the day before yesterday.
His body has not necessarily eliminated the gases in his veins.
So the sudden climb in altitude of the plane
produced the effect of an ascent without a decompression stop.
The gases dilated and boom!
In short, it's not a crime, it's an accident.
A diving accident,
up in the air.
All right.
You don't think it's an accident either, right?
No.
- Did you see something, Astrid? - Yes.
The stain on his shirt near the fifth button.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
This bloodstain looks different.
- But I cannot see why. - Yes, wait...
You're right, Astrid. Looks like a puncture hole.
Raphaëlle, do you still have your lighter?
Astrid, you know I always have one.
Take it out, please.
Yeah. What for?
What are you doing, Coste?
Yes, what am I doing, Astrid?
Light it and bring the flame above the victim's mouth.
What are you doing?
Did you see that?
Astrid, what was that?
Proof that Marc Noisay was murdered.
It's murder.
- So it's not a decompression accident? - It is, but provoked.
It is a near-perfect simulation of a decompression accident.
The press reported the dramatic arrest at sea of the Poacher,
and his attempted escape by diving.
It was the perfect modus operandi.
All right.
What gas was he injected with?
- Probably hydrogen. - Yes.
It's highly flammable and one of the less dense of Mendeleev's table.
Which makes it particularly sensitive to changes in pressure and altitude.
And the turbulence caused the plane to gain height quickly.
So the gas suddenly dilated in the victim's blood.
This is what killed him.
So in short, we have a murder where the murder weapon...
Is the plane itself.
Yeah.
Want some?
With what you're eating, you'd as well smoke,
it'll kill you less quickly.
Helps me think.
- Who was that, on the phone? - My guardian angel.
- She has damn good intuitions. - And an eye for detail.
We still need to know when he was injected.
Had to be after takeoff.
Or the change in pressure would have killed him.
You know what that means?
Yeah.
That means the culprit is on the plane.
Excuse me, could we have some explanation?
Don't worry, everything is under control.
People are afraid.
So no passenger could have touched him before you crossed to the back?
No, Commissioner.
We followed protocol and moved Noisay in once all the passengers boarded.
There was no contact.
And the staff is assigned to the flight more than 72 hours in advance,
so before the Poacher's arrest.
It's hard to imagine the killer can be one of them.
Given the passenger list, there are 53 suspects.
We have to figure it out before landing.
Or 53 suspects in custody is going to be a huge mess.
I'll study the profile of every passenger.
I'll do it with you, it'll be quicker.
Great.
Send a copy of Noisay's arrest file to Astrid, please.
She's pulling up all the Poacher's cases.
Commander.
- Yes? - Yes?
- Which one? - Commander Coste.
What's the situation with the passengers?
The situation?
I'd say it's like a pressure cooker. I'll try to calm it all down.
It is 10:08 a.m., the plane should land at 11:37 a.m.
That leaves us 1h29 to find the killer.
Let's go.
Nico, I printed the passenger list, we can place them.
You start from the bottom, I'll start from the top.
- I'm done. - Me too.
I think we're good.
I focused on the 18 passengers located along the aisle and in the first row,
and all those who were close enough to inject the victim.
And with the times of the bookings,
we can eliminate those who took their ticket
before the flight was held for the Poacher's extradition.
Because they couldn't have known he'd be there.
- Exactly. - Go on.
So...
We still have Maxime Legall, Jules Burtin and Hélène Hassoun.
Legall, Burtin and Hassoun. Wait.
They all booked their tickets at the same time,
yesterday after 6 p.m.
Great.
So, you're telling us you didn't try to be on the same flight as the Poacher?
Coincidence, maybe?
Can I see the notebook you were using earlier?
Come on. Is it against the law to have a notebook?
Not in France, but we're now over international waters,
so it's a grey area.
Like the laws governing police interrogations.
We'll start with you, sir.
Look, we're just news stories journalists for different papers.
We're covering the Poacher's extradition.
We got on the flight thanks to an assistant DA in charge of the case.
His name's in this notebook.
Damn.
The Poacher told us he had something to say to the press.
Do you know what it is?
Not particularly, no.
He told you that? Is this your official comment?
What?
The Poacher, he had something to reveal to the press?
Hang on, are you recording this?
- No. - He's recording.
Give me that. Give me that!
Thank you.
We received all the videos from the gendarmerie.
In the age of social media, everyone sees everything.
Several people filmed the Poacher when he arrived in economy class.
Good news and bad news.
The good news is we see the Poacher's route in detail.
And the bad?
None of the passengers injected the Poacher.
- The images are formal. - Impossible.
When was he injected then?
I don't know.
Astrid?
- Raphaëlle? Hello, Raphaëlle? - Yes.
Raphaëlle, hello?
- Hello? - I think I made a mistake.
I can't hear. What are you saying?
- Hello, Raphaëlle? - Yes?
I was wrong. One must not be wrong.
- Where are you? - In Mareil Marly.
In Yvelines.
In front of Marc Noisay's house, where he lived with his sister.
What are you doing there? Astrid?
That's just it.
- I do not know. - Astrid, calm down.
I did not act rationally. I followed a hunch based on a photo.
I saw the photo and I left.
And it was only now that I realized that I am alone.
Without you.
I'm here.
You are not here.
Astrid.
You know, intuition is just your head being one step ahead of you.
If you're there, it's for a good reason.
I am not qualified.
You are qualified, Astrid.
I am not qualified.
You're a police officer, now.
So tell me,
why did you come here?
Hey, you!
Who are you?
Astrid Nielsen.
The dog.
Stay.
Astrid?
Astrid! Shit!
Wait, it works?
It works.
Bourgoin.
What?
Come here.
Oh, come on.
Coste, you know I think you're attractive,
but it's not the time and I'm not easy like that.
Are you an idiot?
I have to tell you something that no one can hear.
The "out of service" sign, do you know who installed it?
No, it was there when I checked the plane, before general boarding.
When you were checking, was the crew already on board?
- Yeah, why? - Because these toilets work.
We did not suspect the crew,
because, traditionally, they're assigned to the flight 72 hours before.
What if that wasn't the case?
OK, how so?
What if someone wanted us to cross the plane with Noisay
to create a breach in our surveillance?
If the videos show that Noisay wasn't injected
while we were crossing the plane,
that means he was injected earlier during the flight.
- So it's someone... - A member of the crew.
Capisce?
Alright, we have to get out now.
Discreetly.
I'll go after.
It does not work.
He suffered?
Probably.
If my brother did everything he's been accused of
and I didn't see anything...
what does that make me?
- The sister of an assassin. - For you, it means an accomplice.
Is that what you're saying?
Not at all.
That makes you the sister of an assassin.
It is objective data.
You did not choose to be his sister.
You are neither a victim nor an accomplice,
but a sister.
Why are you here? What do you want?
I do not know.
I saw this photo
and I came.
Ah, yes.
You wanted to see where the monster lived.
Two days ago,
when he was escaping,
he called me.
He said he was sorry for the horrors I must've heard about him.
But that I had to remember…
"The truth is in the slaughter".
It was the last sentence he said to me.
The sentence of a madman.
All right.
- Hey, Nico. - You were right.
Someone on the crew was not scheduled on the flight.
- Who? - Myriam Alduy.
She struggled with a colleague to make this flight at the last second.
It wasn't really procedure, so she hid the info.
A threat of complicity in murder made the colleague confess.
Your belt, miss. Your belt, sir. Thank you.
I know this is unexpected, but I'm going to have to ask you to sit down
and fasten your seat belt.
I'll actually be asking you to sit down.
- You are under arrest. - Why? I didn't do anything.
- Stay still. - But I didn't do anything!
Calm down.
- This must be a misunderstanding. - Sure it is.
- Peanuts, Coste? - No, thanks.
So?
Mrs. Alduy, you are in custody. Do you understand?
Is there a doctor?
Commander Bourgoin is still hospitalized?
Yes.
He was lucky we were about to land.
If he didn't get help when he did,
he would've been exiting that plane in a coffin.
Do we know what happened?
According to forensics, the peanuts were poisoned.
I don't get it. Bourgoin was targeted?
No, Noisay.
He took the packet from Noisay's tray.
Poison and an hydrogen injection.
- Myriam Alduy really didn't want to fail. - That's for sure.
Is she somehow connected to the Poacher?
- Was she close to a victim? - No connection for now.
But her credit card statement shows she bought a diuretic
at the airport pharmacy.
Traces of which can be found in the water she served to the Poacher.
And she put an "out of order" sign on the toilets.
She seemed to want Noisay to get up during the flight.
All this to create an unexpected event during her shift.
For what?
He wasn't injected while he was crossing the plane.
Maybe we should ask her.
Well, go ahead.
- You don't like it? - Yes, it's pretty.
I swear to you, I was framed.
But you can see your story is a little hard to believe.
An anonymous caller asks you to kill someone,
and you accept without question.
I never thought I'd be killing someone.
Block off the bathroom and put diuretics in a bottle,
nobody had to die.
Actually, someone did. That's that.
Look, I really needed money,
and I was offered a large sum to do something harmless.
I couldn't refuse.
And I'm guessing you don't have the identity of this caller.
No, they sent me orders by hidden messages.
Obviously.
Her phone contains untraceable hidden messages
sent by an encrypted application with a prepaid card.
And the last message she received says:
"Noisay hasn't had a drink yet, go pour him some water".
It was sent shortly before takeoff.
It means the person was on the plane. Check this out.
A curtain separates first from economy class.
See?
So that means that the author of this message
had a front row seat to the scene.
Behind the curtain, the three journalists.
Put these three under surveillance, discreetly.
- We'll reconvene tomorrow. - Got it.
Astrid.
Good to see you, Astrid.
It is good to see you. I missed you up here.
Where?
On the plane.
- Ah. - Yes.
- But we did speak on the phone. - It's not the same.
Yes.
I looked for a link between Myriam Alduy, the flight attendant,
and the Poacher.
I have not found anything.
You'll find something. You always do.
Raphaëlle,
I can find something if there is something to find.
There is no link.
It is 7:27 p.m. It is Monday.
Let's go.
I just have to make a detour on the way.
I won't be long.
- I will meet you at your place. - No, you're coming with me.
At 7:28 p.m. A detour. On a Monday.
How do you feel?
Ah, Commander Coste...
Well,
like someone who ate too many peanuts.
But you won't get rid of me so easily.
Good morning, Commander Bourgoin.
Good morning.
- You're lucky. - I know.
If I didn't get help when I did,
I would have landed in a coffin.
- That's funny. - That makes you laugh?
Yes, because that's exactly what I said earlier.
Did you interrogate the flight attendant?
I don't think she's our culprit. An accomplice, yes.
But her defense holds up.
That's your guardian angel?
Absolutely not. I am not a guardian angel.
I am her friend.
Her best friend.
She's my friend.
Friend.
Thank you for coming to see me. You didn't have to.
Don't get excited, it's for the investigation.
Maybe we can get to know each other.
Now that you've seen me in my pajamas.
Maybe.
And maybe I can invite you to dinner,
when I get out of here.
Get back on your feet first, then we'll see.
All right.
See you soon.
Very soon.
The door.
There, the door.
Astrid.
- Goodbye. - Bye.
- I will close it. - Yes, close it.
You like him.
Who?
Commander Bourgoin, you like him.
Not at all.
Not at all. Why do you say that?
- You have a stain. - Yes.
I was wrong. One must not be wrong.
I thought I had detected typical non-verbal signs.
When you are in his presence, you laugh differently.
And you bit your lip.
He rested his hand on yours and you did not pull back.
Then to say goodbye to him, you got close like this,
and you said:
"Get back on your feet first, then we'll see."
- I didn't talk like that. - A bit, yes.
I admit, I'm interested.
You're starting to be fluent in neurotypical talk.
- I am qualified. - Yeah.
Are you going to have sex with him? Do bim?
Yes. No! Well, I...
It's more complicated than that, Astrid.
And he gets on my nerves.
All right.
You like him.
- But he gets on your nerves. - I know, that's what's weird.
He gets on my nerves, and I think that's why I like him.
There.
What?
I am lost.
Me too.
What have you got there?
A stone.
A piece of go.
It's a Japanese game.
Tetsuo gave it to you. It's a gift from Tetsuo.
It is not a gift. Tetsuo only lent it to me.
I do not know how to react.
Why?
Because he wants to play it with me.
That's good.
That is not good, Raphaëlle.
It is not a puzzle, it is a game.
And a game takes two people, that's the problem.
Yes.
When I want to solve a puzzle, I want to solve a riddle.
It is always the same riddle.
Only, playing with someone means
having to take the other into consideration.
It is necessary to integrate
additional, unpredictable,
and invisible data.
I cannot do it.
Maybe that's what Tetsuo is looking for.
Sharing his invisible data with you
Astrid,
sometimes you just have to take the first step,
the rest will come by itself.
Hi, mom. Hi, Astrid.
- Hi, Théo. - Good evening, Théo.
- Is there any pizza left? - In the box.
Which one?
You made a joke.
Because the pizza is in a box, like the rest of Raphaëlle's things,
when she should have emptied them a long time ago.
- It is funny. - You're funny, son.
What's new with the Poacher case?
Théo, you know very well that...
You always end up telling me when you shouldn't.
No...
Marc Noisay said he wanted to talk to the press.
Maybe the culprit killed him to silence him,
or to stop him from revealing a compromising secret.
At the moment, we have isolated three suspects,
and we are trying to find out if there is a link
between one of them and one of the Poacher's cases.
Sorry, Raphaëlle.
Théo is right, we always end up talking about investigations with him.
Since he was little. You have grown up a lot.
Yes.
- Astrid? - Raphaëlle.
It's eight in the morning.
- You found something. - Yes.
As long as a puzzle is not solved, I cannot think of anything else.
This puzzle is too captivating.
Last night, I went straight to the Criminal Documentation
to try and find a link between one of the three passengers you are focusing on
and one of the Poacher's cases.
And?
I found the link, Raphaëlle.
Great, I'm coming!
- I found the link. - I heard.
I'm coming. I'm hanging up.
Maxime Legall, one of the journalists who was on board.
Absolutely.
Maxime Legall was a permanent correspondent
for a political magazine
until he suddenly quit to become a news reporter.
But, the moment of his radical career change
perfectly matches with one of the murders committed by the Poacher.
That of Morgan Philippe.
- The deputy? - Yes.
Mr. Philippe was a politician, Mr. Legall was a political journalist.
They knew each other.
They often met.
First, during a major interview,
and then all throughout Mr. Philippe's legislative campaign.
- Yes, Norah? - Commander.
Myriam Alduy has not only received hidden text messages.
The day before the flight, the instigator contacted her
via encoded online messaging.
I managed to bypass the VPN and got back to the original machine's IP.
Norah, wait. IP, VPN, I don't understand.
I'm lost, can you please translate?
I made a connection between the stewardess and one of our Post-its.
Wait. Let me guess.
I'm not computer savvy, but one of my colleagues is.
She located the computer from which the first anonymous emails
were sent to Myriam Alduy.
Myriam who? What are you talking about?
They were sent from a cafe.
A cybercafe in Dubrovnik.
That's you on the photos, right?
I think you didn't just have a...
professional relationship with...
Deputy Morgan Philippe, am I wrong?
Am I wrong?
They haunt me, you know.
These images of Morgan,
naked, tied up, disemboweled.
It's something you can't erase.
It lasts your whole life.
That's why you specialized in news stories?
To keep investigating the death of the man you loved.
To exorcise.
And it allowed me to be as close as possible to the progress of the police,
to the Poacher.
And yes,
to be on the same plane as him to...
I've wanted this revenge for so long.
Except my revenge was stolen from me.
How so?
I bribed the flight attendant to take you all away from first class.
I need to pee.
So I could switch his aperitif packet with the poisoned packet,
while you were busy in the back.
Except he didn't die poisoned,
did he?
Wait, that was your only plan, the poisoned packet?
You're saying there were several people on the plane who wanted to kill him?
Because in that case...
From the start, I knew something was wrong,
but I could not find what it was.
I found it. The Poacher did not kill Morgan Philippe.
No.
One should not disrupt an interrogation.
One should not disclose information in front of a suspect.
Hello, Mr. Legall.
If this gets out of here, you'll have to deal with me.
Understood?
Marc Noisay could not have killed Morgan Philippe.
- What makes you say that, Astrid? - The month of July.
Marc Noisay cannot have killed Morgan Philippe
because Morgan Philippe was murdered in July.
Excuse me, Astrid, but how does the fact that Philippe's murder was in July
mean that Noisay couldn't have killed him?
Because the hunting season is over.
After each of his murders, without exception,
Marc Noisay participated in hunts.
You think it was a kind of ritual?
It is one theory. But I mostly think he used the quarry.
- Which quarry? - The quarry. Yes.
It's a tradition that follows the killing of the animal.
The offal is given to the dogs of the pack as a reward.
Wait...
We never found the entrails of the victims.
We did not.
However, after the murder of Morgan Philippe,
Marc Noisay could not have recourse to the quarry
because the hunting season was over, because it was in July.
He could have done it differently, just this once.
No, no. Astrid is right, he's a serial killer.
Inherently, each of his murders followed a specific ritual.
Yes, but that won't be enough to convince the DA.
If we want to go further, we need something solid.
Proof.
I think I know where to find proof.
What do we have?
I'm sorry, Commissioner.
We searched the room from top to bottom.
We did every test and analysis possible.
- We found nothing. - Nothing at all?
"The truth is in the slaughter."
These are the last words the Poacher said to his sister.
I realized he was not speaking of his murders
but of a literal slaughter.
The slaughter of a deer. There.
- You think we haven't already looked? - I do not know, I was not there.
There's nothing inside it. We scanned it.
- Did you look behind? - No.
- Then look behind! - Then look behind!
- There's nothing. - What do you mean nothing?
There is.
There.
There, there, there, there and there.
It is not animal hair.
It is human hair.
Astrid hit the nail on the head, as usual.
Those are strands of human hair.
- The Poacher's trophies. - That's it.
We matched them with the fingerprints of his victims,
but look.
- There are seven vials? - Seven vials for seven separate DNAs.
So seven victims.
And no trace of a hair from Morgan Philippe.
So, Astrid was right. The Poacher didn't kill him.
Yeah.
You're sure? The Poacher didn't kill Philippe?
95% sure.
You must be happy. Cops blaming the gendarmerie.
No one's questioning the gendarmerie's investigation.
My colleague found the error by comparing the life of Marc Noisay to his murders.
- Your guardian angel again? - Exactly.
Look, I didn't bring you in to grill you. You get that?
I know that you know this case inside out.
If we're dealing with a copycat, we'll need you to catch him.
I'll get the Commissioner.
We are sure that one of the crimes attributed to the Poacher
was not committed by him.
It was made to look like it by using the same ritual.
So the murder of the Poacher was not revenge,
but a cover for another crime.
Exactly.
Astrid.
- I'm putting you on speakerphone. - Absolutely not.
Not on speaker.
Raphaëlle, I just discovered something very worrying.
I can only speak to you.
Oh, you want to talk about something personal, ok.
Absolutely not, it is about the investigation.
- About Tetsuo. - I get it.
- Sorry, I'll be right back. - Bravo, Raphaëlle.
You are using coded language so as not to be understood.
I'm listening.
I studied the rituals of Morgan Philippe's murder again.
They're precise. Very precise.
Too precise.
Some details had not been revealed in the press.
Do you understand what that means, Raphaëlle?
Yeah, I understand.
It means the Poacher's copycat is close to the investigation.
I believe they are a member of the law enforcement.
That adds three suspects who were on the plane who could be the copycat.
Three suspects who are in law enforcement.
It could be Commander Bourgoin, Captain Daguerre...
or you.
Raphaëlle.
When you were searching him...
That's when you injected him.
What are you talking about?
He killed the Poacher and Morgan Philippe.
That's not possible. Commander, it's not true.
Don't be stupid, Bourgouin.
Stand up!
Captain...
He was going to destroy us.
Deputy Philippe was like all these politicians.
They don't know what it's like in the field.
You know it.
Please speak to me as a professional, Commander.
What are these jobs?
Police, gendarmerie?
It's scrutinizing the human soul at its darkest.
So, yeah, sometimes you have to get your hands dirty.
And to fight the monster, you can't be afraid of violence.
Deputy Philippe didn't understand that.
He wanted to investigate you, is that it?
He wanted to stick us with a parliamentary commission.
I tried to talk to him, but he wouldn't hear it.
He wanted to ruin us.
The gendarmerie is a body.
There's skeletons in our closets,
but I wasn't going to let my men be attacked,
ostracized, degraded.
I had to react.
By committing a despicable murder?
- You put your uniform to shame. - I still get nightmares.
But what better cover than the Poacher?
He wasn't going to come out of hiding to proclaim his innocence.
And what better position than that of the lead investigator,
to cover your tracks.
It worked for six years.
Until we identified and apprehended Noisay.
Because he would've denied killing the deputy.
I couldn't take that risk.
So by fighting the monster,
you became it.
Astrid?
By studying the parameters of the situation,
I thought that you were in a state of requiring comfort.
Am I wrong? One must not be wrong.
You're not wrong.
It seems there's a contradiction
between the fact that you liked the Commander
and the fact that he is an assassin who will spend his life in prison.
Well, I told you, I attract jerks.
Raphaëlle,
you kissed Captain Perran.
I do not think Captain Perran is a jerk.
Yes, but it's too late, I ruined everything.
Sometimes,
you just have to take the first step,
the rest will come by itself.
Nico, we crushed it, didn't we?
- Yes, we worked hard. - Not just the job.
We work well together, don't you think?
Yes, yes, you're right.
My friend's having this party, wanna come?
- Yeah, I'm coming. - Cool!
- Do you have a helmet? - Yes.
Hello, Astrid.
I will take the white ones.
So it's up to me to start.
Yes.
