I beg you.

But open that door.

Christine!

Christine! Please.

Open.

Christelle.

Bom.

I wish we could talk
about Christelle Laurent again.

That's what I'm here for, Lady Justice.

I want to start from the beginning.

Your arrival at the police station, &c.

The attempted m*rder
of his ex-wife,

the kidnapping of your ex-partner,
etc.

What will lead us
to your hospitalization,

- for your escape, &c.
- Etc.

Pardon.

Hi!

It's your little fantasy
or your little snack.

Is this the last time man?

Yes, hello,
it's Brigadier-Chef Baudemont.

Can you pass me your mother
please?

Sim, Joel?

We have a dead body near the station.

- Oh.
- Yea.

OK, j'arrive.

We will...

Come on, I'm taking you. Go!

Hey my kiss.

See you tonight.

- Sorry.
- Yea.

So what is she saying?

Miss, if you get like this,

you won't see anything
from the beginning of the episode!

I'm tired now.

She remained hidden there
for three months.

It looks like Ms.
Lucie Gamet, nurse,

was his last victim.

I don't understand.

You should be relieved.

The sword of Damocles above
your head, etc., is gone!

Yes, but some things
bother me, lady justice.

Why did she escape
if her goal was to k*ll herself?

You said so yourself.

She wanted to live with you.
Upon his refusal, she k*lled herself.

Yes I know.

But she turned on the gas
before I arrived.

- Is that so?
- Yea.

Then...

Why did she wait so long

put your plan into action?

Three months is a long time.

And finally,

why did you bother

disappear, if...

anyway, is it to send a letter and
tell her where she's hiding?

Does not make sense.

No trace of Lucie Gamet
was found in the rubble.

Listen captain,
the teething exam

of the corpse made it possible to
formally identify Christelle Laurent.

She took her secrets
to the grave.

Anna and the King,

- only one season, episode...
- Excuse me?

We must accept that we don't have
all the answers.

Exactly.

What speed!
Didn't you burn?

I may be an unworthy mother,
but not a bad driver.

What do we have?

Jessica Dufresne, years old.

If the name rings like a bell,
it's okay.

It's this young woman
who had disappeared years ago

and who was reunited with his family.

Oh no, that's not true!

To escape such a thing
and be m*rder*d days later.

Yes, it was not time
for her to play EuroMillions.

Where is Dejax?

Sorry!

I'm late.

No, no big deal.

Here, I have the same jacket as you.

Yes, I was at Melanie's house
when they called me.

I left quickly.

What impresses me most?

Do you fit into her clothes
or are you together?

You're right, I'm suffocating!

Thanks.

Then?

What do we have?

Pen.

Then...

Now, I believe that...

she d*ed of strangulation.

Time of death?

The time of death...

A little...

hours.

Yes, a little or in the morning.

RIGHT. Ask the neighbors,
maybe they saw something.

And we delayed
the announcement of his death to the press.

Hello Jessica?

And the mother. where are you dear

Hello?

Jessica?

Hello?

Hello?

I print the minutes,

you read it again,

you sign, and so on,

and you can turn the page
Christelle Laurent.

I hope so.

In horror movies,

the bad guy always comes back.

Finally... in horror movies.

We were very happy
to meet you,

after all these years!

I knew she would come back,
even after my husband d*ed.

I haven't stopped believing it.

But this time...

After Jessica returns,

Did you notice anything suspicious?

I haven't seen her in days,
she almost never goes out.

What she wanted more than anything
was to be with Mom.

We both had dinner last night.

She climbed into bed,
everything seemed normal.

She didn't talk about anything.

If you remember a detail

or if there's anything I can do
for you, call me.

If you want to help me,

Find out who stole Jessica from me
for the second time.

Clear.

It's good to see you again.

Sim.

- Dufresne file. Everything is here.
- Thanks.

Shall we have a coffee?

You know, you will be disappointed.
We don't have any clues.

I questioned her three days ago
when she reappeared.

She was shocked.

Couldn't get her to talk about
where she was stuck

or your attacker.

You put her
under police protection, I imagine.

Obviously!

But she was the one who packed her bags.

This is surprising.

To reach who?
Her kidnapper, do you think?

Do you think about Stockholm syndrome?
It's up to you to find out.

OK...
Thanks for the info.

What's the matter, Aurelie?

You are swollen!

After Eric's arrest,
we haven't heard from you again!

It was difficult for everyone

but you didn't hesitate
to eliminate the brigade from your life.

years working together

and not a word,
not a phone call, nothing.

And then you...

you appear like this,

as I know nothing

It's good? Do you know the way?

Judge Guimard,
quite a poem, eh?

Guimard J...
Procedure.

Madame et cetera.

- One coffee?
- Thanks.

The end result is that this story is
over.

Cold.

Sarah doesn't suspect anything?

Not that I know.

We'll try to keep this a secret
until tomorrow.

Eighteen years!

It's crazy how fast
it goes, isn't it?

I didn't see them pass.

Tell me, Jessica Dufresne,

- the folder is a little empty, right?
- Telephony, RAS

Nobody saw her leave,

no witnesses at the crime scene.

But Baudemont is doing
a neighborhood survey.

I hope he finds something.

Do we know the police officer who
handled the disappearance?

Yup. Roxane is
questioning him.

I tried calling him.
Where is she?

In prision.

You took too long!

I came to work.

That would have surprised me!

I have a file
you worked on years ago.

Jessica Dufresne.

She was found dead this morning.

I knew she came back
to her family days ago, right?

Sim.

She said she escaped
her captor,

so we dig in that direction.

Eric.

I need to know more
about your disappearance.

I can't stop thinking about it

since I know she came back.

Was it in ?
Spring .

Little Jessica literally passed out
in the jungle.

No fingerprints, no witnesses,
a very ordinary family.

Track zero. A f*cking riddle!

Is there anything I can know?

Something not in the file?

Yes maybe.

It was a guy.

We never had the end
of the story. His name was Landrin.

He was prowling
toward the tennis courts.

There were several reports, but...

Most?

He had a concrete alibi.

On the night of the disappearance,
he was with his brother, a gendarme.

He asked that his name
not appear in the lawsuit.

Since Landrin had
a clean record...

But that didn't stop me
from watching him day and night.

Did not work.

OK.

Are you okay, Julie?

I am well thanks.

How's her dance show going?
It seemed to stress her out.

How do you know?

Are you making us watch?

It's not because you
don't miss me at all

it's the same for me.

I forbid you to speak to my daughter.

Your daughter is still
my goddaughter, Roxane.

Greg, this is important,
we need to talk.

Come at noon to Lio and Steph's house, we 'll have
lunch together.

See you soon.

We went fishing in the
Dufresne district. It's a little.

Several neighbors saw
a white van lurking.

Unfortunately, we don't have a board.

Has anyone seen the driver?

No, but a woman saw
a violent argument

between the victim and a man.
He was behind, a tall man.

She described him with hair.

- Hair?
- Hair.

Brown or blond.
Finally you see, a mop.

I did a search and we have
white vans

in Greater Lyon,
including for rent.

It'll take a while,
but we're on the spot.

As always.

Maybe we could start with...

Hein?

What the hell is she doing?

I'm coming back, Joel!

Ooh there!

Pronto, vai bardar!

Yes, this is a good idea!

What is that?

- Shaving cream.
- But do you shave?

- Yes, I have a growing beard.
- Show me!

No, but there's nothing there!

- Yea!
- You'll see when you grow up.

You need help?

Because for me
helping is a vocation.

- Kader, are you okay?
- Yes, it's growing.

Sorry,

can i find out
what you are doing at my house?

I found a studio, I'm
moving in with Eddy.

Oh sim, ok.

Most...

we could have talked about it together

- and you have to go to the judge.
- And my son.

I'm free.

so thank you

- for everything you've done.
- Many things! Much.

But now I'm out
and my son is coming with me.

Jennifer,

there are ways to do things
and rules to follow.

- We can find a deal.
- You will see, my dear,

we'll be fine.

It's a new studio,
Confluence district.

Confluence?

It's a joke.

It is minutes from your school.
have you think about it?

And where are you going to make him sleep?

- On the doormat?
- I don't need your lessons.

I know how to take care of my son!

- Eddy, here we go.
- Eddy, you're staying here.

Shall we play like this?

You sh*t first.

Very good.

If you want w*r,

You will have.

See you later.

Sorry boy. I don't have
the answer you should have.

Jennifer?

The same.

On the other hand, I have the beginning of the track.
A certain Landrin,

years old, office worker,

psychologically unstable.

He was very interested in Jessica
before her disappearance.

Please. Just dropped,
kidnapping alert.

Elsa LeCoz,

years old, . m,
brown hair, brown eyes,

she plays tennis.

Just
like little Dufresne in .

Perhaps it was Landrin
who removed the .

The time matches.

He kidnaps little Dufresne,
but she runs away from him.

He needs another one
to replace him.

Etienne Landrin?

Sim.

We will ask you to follow us.

I bought this dress for my niece.

I have nothing to do with
what happened to these kids.

Oh yes?

What were you doing
before going to the supermarket?

I was at home.

Alone and all morning I guess?

It's light, like an alibi.

Suspect a
m*rder and kidnapping man

because being alone is so light.

We saw a man
arguing with Jessica yesterday.

You haven't contacted
her since your return?

Still, you liked to
visit her when she was younger.

Okay, listen, Jessica was...

special, unique, a player
like we all see...

Ten years!

Huh?
Ten years.

- But...
- Okay, let's be serious for two minutes.

With the exception of a vague hypothesis
about my client

and tennis, if I understand correctly,

you have nothing?

Nothing at all.

So you better
let him go, and fast.

Yup.
No, judge!

Very good.

Yes bye.

Then?

So it's not.

Judge Langlois embraces
the presumption of innocence.

the backrest is thin

and the time of Elsa's kidnapping
is difficult to establish.

He refuses to authorize the search
of Landrin's house.

And the dress?

Landrin's niece is ten years old
to use it.

Kader, I'll be frank.

Langlois still hasn't digested
the trick

who
freed Adeline last year.

He was very clear.

At the slightest misstep,
he won't miss you.

We'll say
I didn't see that smile.

A little "cheriferie"?

Yes, Greg, it's me.

I have a work emergency.
I can't at noon.

Sim.

Yes, it is important.

See you tonight.

OK, I kiss you.

All will be fine?

Sim.

What's your plan?

Have I told you how
we met, with Adeline?

Cherif, season , episode ?

I know my classics.

OK.

Mr. Landrin is a
very discreet neighbor, therefore.

Can you tell me more?

In truth. I see
him sometimes when he closes the shutters

- or when I take out the garbage.
- Thanks.

Oh, exactly!

But what is he doing?

Is not true!
Don't leave here, stay there.

Your turn, Rox.

Thank you, Rouky.

No!

Don't be afraid, I'm from the police.

Don't be afraid, I'm from the police.
Everything is good.

Ended.

It's over, it's over.

All will be fine.

Hein,

all will be fine.

My patience has limits, captain.

Let it out
or you'll get in trouble.

Thanks for coming.

But it's almost over, Master.

I wanted to
apologize to you, Mr. Landrin.

we know for sure

that you weren't
the one who k*lled Jessica Dufresne.

It was even impossible.

Yes, since the time of the m*rder

you were kidnapping
this young woman

which bears the name of Elsa Le Coz.

So now you're accusing
my client of kidnapping?

It makes no sense.

When my colleague was questioning
his neighbor,

a lovely lady,

a thief tried to
break into your house.

But the police were there.

My colleague
intervened immediately,

but the individual managed to escape.

A fine flagrant crime. Perfectly
characterized, my dear Master.

And guess what she found,

locked twice
behind a door?

So Mr. Landrin,
I'm listening to you.

Tell me how Elsa
Le Coz ended up with you.

Do you allow?

- I'd like to speak to my client.
- You're welcome.

Ah, dear to dear!

I don't bother you anymore
with my questions,

- thank you so much.
- Thanks. Thank you very much.

He didn't have time
to hurt her.

We got there just in time.

It's so rare when it ends like this.

Yes, and it's good.

However, we still don't know
what happened to Jessica.

Then?

Ten years after his kidnapping,
we're still in total darkness.

As if things had stopped
since that day.

Maybe not.

Look at the scar.

This is the original.

OK?

And it should be the same person.

- It's the opposite.
- Yea.

New York, Special Unit,
Season , Episode .

A young woman pretends to be
a victim

imitating your tattoo.

Hello, this is the friend of the dead!

- Is it gauze?
- Yea.

I have information
and it's not fake news.

The
lab results will surprise you.

Jessica Dufresne,

is not the victim.

Glad you're there!

We were in quite a mess!

You are?

Sr. e Sra. Dufresne.

Wait.
I repeat, I do not understand.

I will explain to you.
But please have a seat.

We will...

the young girl
we found dead this morning,

the one who claims to be your daughter,

it's not Jessica.

DNA tests are formal.

But who is it then?

Ophélie Garcia, fatherless,
rejected by her mother at age three.

Obviously, she spent
her whole life looking for a family,

even if it means pretending to be someone
else.

With DNA analysis,

she needed to know, though,
that it was a thing of the past.

It's pathological with her.

years ago she pretended
to be Émilie Marchand,

a young woman who had disappeared.

But how is this possible?

The mother, Madame Marchand,

discovered a diary

in which Ophélie Garcia tells
absolutely everything.

The judge declared that she
was not responsible for her actions.

She did four years of HP.

I can't imagine
what the parents must have felt.

In court, the father, Mr. Marchand,
publicly threatened her.

He swore revenge.

But I recognized her.

Do you think you might
not recognize your own daughter?

I knew it.

I mean, I mean...

there was something wrong.

It looked crazy!

I wanted to talk to you, Mom,
but you really believed that.

If she's not my daughter,
then Jessica is still alive.

Jessica's alleged return to
her family received a lot of publicity.

Marchand may have heard about it.

If he found Ophelia's trail,
that explains why she ran away.

- Do we know where he is?
- We've issued a wanted notice.

We also check to see
if he drives a white van.

- Could be him hanging around.
- Very good.

- Goodbye. Take care.
- Thanks.

goodbye sir

Frame, Frame!

How are you?

I finished my playlist
for Sarah's birthday.

I want some air,
will you come with me?

But first you need to find
the sound system for the birthday.

There is no emergency.

I'll get my pea coat,
I'm on my way.

- Thanks.
- Thanks.

Friends, season , episode .

You're exaggerating, Dad. I'm
a little better than Rachel!

Here.

Yes, you are perfect, my dear.

Sim.

I wanted to talk
to you about this morning.

I'm sorry. I didn't know
how my mother would react.

But no, you don't need to apologize.

You have nothing to reproach yourself with.
It's not you, the adult.

Sim.

Sim.

Is it something you're thinking about?

Go live with your mother.

I don't know.

But it is not possible.

E?

Yup. Legally, you could.
Are you years old.

There are administrative measures
to be taken, but nothing bad.

If you want I can help you.

You know, my mother...

It's my mother, what.

I want to go and settle down
with her.

Most...

Not immediately.

OK, I can hear you.

For now, we are not changing anything.

OK?

- Yea?
- Marchand has just arrived at the station.

RIGHT.
Start the interrogation, I'm coming.

I need to go.

Okay, see you tonight?

Yes, see you tonight.

Eddy? What is this head?

Anything.

The most important people
in my life who hate each other.

Besides that...

Is that my father and mother?

Yup. They got confused again.

They will never get along.
Sucks.

We must not despair. They must
see each other from another angle.

I think I have an idea!

What if we give
them a blind date?

One what?

Mr. Marchand,
I'm Captain Le Goff.

It is I who will proceed
with your questioning.

Does this vehicle mean
anything to you?

Yes, I have the same.

You've been hanging around the Dufresnes
since Ophélie's return.

How did you find her?

I saw her on the news.

I recognized her immediately.

He rekindled so many things!

If you knew,
why don't you come and tell us?

To avenge you.

It's like I've lost my daughter
for the second time.

My wife couldn't take it. She's been
in depression for months.

Ophélie Garcia broke my life.
I wanted her to pay.

What happened
when you found her?

I wandered around the house.

I was going to do it,
I had to do it,

then his colleagues arrived.

I saw the mother bursting into tears
and then I understood everything.

It was too late.

A witness saw
you arguing with Ophelia.

It's not true, it's not me.
I couldn't get close to him.

Mr. Marchand, you have to tell the truth.

The truth...

The truth is, I was a coward.

I wanted to avenge my family
and I couldn't.

I came, waited...

I lost everything.

Do you have an alibi
for the time of the m*rder?

I've been nothing for months.

I am no longer a husband,
I am no longer a father.

But I'm not a k*ller.

He looks sincere.

I agree.

I trust your instincts,
but everything points to that.

No alibi, a good reason to act,

there is

and the argument.

- OK for the first two points.
- The dispute still needs to be proved.

It obviously wasn't him.

You have to show
your photo to the witness.

Very good. Call that person
tomorrow morning.

In the meantime,
Marchand remains in police custody.

OK.

I don't know what bothers me the most.

That my daughter is stealing from
this guy

or that you are his accomplice.

Julie needed to write
to her godfather.

If that reassures me, I'm reading it all.

Eric is a criminal.

He k*lled people!

- When were you going to tell me?
- She doesn't want to hurt you.

And I promised not to say anything.

- How could you let this happen?
- She cried every night!

Those were your nightmares.

I did what I could, Rox.
You were not there!

Right now,
you are in full swing.

Even when you are there,
you are not really there.

He misses you.

I miss you too.

Do you remember what we said?

Yes or No?

"If one day
work takes over..."

"On en change."

Do you want me to change jobs?

Not.

But when you are with us,
really be with us.

Don't pretend, okay?

Did you sleep well, kitten?

- Mommy!
- Yes, not "kitty". That's true.

And,

how are you toad

I saw your godfather yesterday.

- Oh yes?
- Yea.

He told me about the letters
you write him.

I think it's a great idea.

That's true? Are you not angry?

At first, yes, a little, but...

it's important to you.

If it's important to you, it's important
to me too.

Do you want us to write to her together?

Come on, get a pen!

a toast?

Happily.

I didn't expect to see you again so soon.

The Julie.

It's mine.

OK.

I knew Landrin had been arrested,
but not for Jessica's m*rder.

Yup. He had kidnapped another girl.

Fortunately, we arrived in time.
She is cool.

In the end, Landrin had nothing
to do with this story.

So your alibi, your police brother,
did it all hold up?

Eh Sim.

And the victim is not Jessica,
but a usurper.

Wow!

It must have been terrible
for the Dufresnes.

Sim.

You and I had
some bad news, but now...

The mother was so convinced
that she had found her daughter.

And how did the son react?

He, he holds the shock.

Like what people can change.

years ago he put himself
in impossible states

when we were talking about your sister.

He was consumed by guilt.

Normal, he had to keep her

and he made the wall
to go at night.

the first time i saw him

he said it was his fault.

Come on, wait!

Hello, you are on
Kader's cell, write me.

Take a good look. Unhurried.

No, this is not the man I saw
arguing with the young woman.

He is sure?

Sure and sure!

No, he was younger.

OK, thanks for coming.
I'll take you home.

If by chance
a detail came to you,

Do not hesitate to contact us.

- OK.
- OK?

- Thanks. Bye lady.
- Goodbye sir.

Sorry!

I remember one thing,
he made noise with a lighter.

You know, a lighter that opens
and closes, made of metal.

Do not move.

Sim, Roxane?

Is the witness still there?

- Definitely show the photo...
- Of Maxime Dufresne.

It's him?

- Yes, he is.
- Bingo.

I 've dealt with this
personality type before, he doesn't give up.

No wonder
he has been protecting his secret for years.

I don't see how
we could break it.

Especially since
we only have one eyewitness.

We absolutely need a confession.

Ophelia kept a diary,

during your first
identity theft.

What series?

Immediately, the series.

You know, I also happen
to have personal ideas.

Have you ever watched Los Angeles Law?

Season ,

episode .

- Not healthy, actually!
- I fear it.

Michael Kuzak tricks a witness by
reading him a memo.

Which doesn't exist, I imagine.

I'm warning you, I'm not the one
writing the fake notebook pages.

Oh sim?

So let's face it!

Are you kidding, I've been
waiting for two hours!

- Do we offer some coffee?
- No.

The service is deplorable!

We found this diary
while searching your mother's house.

It's from Ophelia.

- Impossible, I...
- I searched everything.

You must not have looked
in the right place.

Sit down, Maxime.
Sit down.

I'll do some reading for you.

Also, talk about you.

"The first day went well,

"Mother didn't see anything.

"To her, I am her daughter.

"It was so nice
to be able to say 'mommy' again.

"On the other hand, brother,

"I don't know if he understands,
but he looks at me strangely.

"Brother k*lled sister.

"He didn't say so,

"But to me it's clear.

"I don't know how he
keeps that secret."

Ophelia had discovered the truth.

My mother was away
that weekend.

I had to watch Jessica.

But I had a great party.

I wanted to sneak in there.
I thought my sister was sleeping.

But not.

She toasted me.
she kept teasing me

to say she was going to shake me.

And my mother,
she never gave me anything.

So we fight and...

And I pushed her.

It was not on purpose.
I pushed her down the stairs.

You k*lled her and kept
that secret for ten years.

It was an accident.

I never wanted this.

I couldn't tell my parents
who was responsible for this.

It messed up my life, theirs.

My mother only lived
in the hope of finding her.

That's when
Ophelia knocked on the door.

No, but this girl!

Who tortures a family like that?

I couldn't take
your little merry-go-round anymore!

When I saw her manipulating
my mother, I got sick.

That's what you argued.

I wanted
her to admit her lie

hear him say that.

As soon as I asked a question,
she found a solution.

And then I blew it.

I saw in her eyes that
she understood.

After that?

At the time, she didn't say anything,

but I knew I had to act.

So I offered him a deal.

We had an appointment near the station.

I had to give him money
and a ticket for the first train.

All this in exchange for your silence.

But when I saw her go

I found it very risky.

She knew everything,
she was going to shake me!

Then I...

I k*lled her!

I k*lled her!

But I did not want.

I had no choice.

What did I do?

Oh my God!

Papa?

Is there anyone?

Why isn't anyone there?

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday darling.

You are crazy!

- Happy Birthday my love!
- Thank you mother!

Grandmother!

Happy birthday my heart!

Thank you very much!

Papa!

Thanks.

Happy Birthday!

Thank you very much.

Don't go too fast,
Kader won't get over this.

You surprise me.

Here.

You are crazy!
Thanks for arranging this.

That's the least.

Nothing is too good
for my little girl.

- I'm not that small.
- Yes, but, well.

In fact, I had planned...

To celebrate with friends.

Ah...

You can go meet your friends.
After all, it's your night.

- Will you stay with us for a while?
- Yes, of course, to drink.

How are you?
Don't you blame me too much?

I'm heartbroken, but...
No, I'm fine!

It's her birthday
anyway, so...

- Happy Birthday!
- Thanks.

Great!

- Are you going to another party?
- Yea.

- I can come?
- Definitely.

So we can talk
about our little plan.

Eighteen years, that's it!

I feel like it's still my baby.

I didn't see her grow up.
This is crazy.

I understand you.

You see there

my tall and handsome Kader,
God bless me,

to me, it's still my baby!

Yes, but Kader is fine.

He will never grow up.

Is that so? Why you say that?
Heads up!

- You're talking nonsense!
- I cherish you!

Oh ok. I understand.

- So let's drink for our children!
- For our babies.

Joel!

Come have a drink.

Yup. I finish something, I arrive.

Oh it was! Oh it was!

Oh it was!

Where is Roxane?

She organized a little party
with her children and her husband.

Fortunately, I don't have a child.

Come on, it's party time!
