04x06 - Hors la loi

[bunniefuu]

Dad, come and get me!

- Hello?
- I hope we have your attention.

If you touch my child...

What happens to her
depends on you.

What do you want?

Malek Rouha.
Set him free.

How am I meant...

That's your problem.
You have minutes.

Let me speak to her.

- Put her on!
- When it's done.

Keep your phone connected
in case you try anything.

When you're with Malek,
put him on. Got it?

Got it?

Thanks.

Where's my daughter?

Where is she?

I don't know. Let me go.

Talk.

We have his kid.
I'll get you out.

- Well done.
- He knows what to do.

Yes, I can see that.

- Keep the phone on you.
- I'll leave it connected.

So, what are we going to do?

Let's go.

Cherif.

Where are you going?
He's not been summoned.

The Prosecutor called me.
He wants to see him before .

Cherif, what's going on?

Stay where you are!
Get back, Adeline.

Don't try anything or you'll end up
like George Forrester.

Do you understand?

Put your g*ns down.

Let them go.

Put your g*ns down!

Cherif's finally cracked.

I said it was a season too many.

I said that, didn't I?

I did.

OUTLAW

It's like you've done this
all your life. Your father was right.

You're in the wrong job, Cherif.

OK, we're out.

What's the plan?

OK.

Right.

Give me your g*n.

Don't start messing me around.

Give me your g*n!

Every cop in Lyon knows my car.

They'll find us.

- Oh, yeah?
- Yes.

Don't worry.

There's a clean car waiting

at the old stadium parking.

It's all planned.

I can't believe it.

I never thought I'd say it.

We've put out a search
on Cherif's car

and we're trying to trace his phone.

Internal Affairs are on their way.

I don't like them.

"You'll end up
like George Forrester."

Who's that?

It's what Kader said.

I'm sure he was trying
to tell me something.

Sorry.

"George Forrester
is a character in episode

"of season
of Mission Impossible.

"His child is kidnapped
to put pressure on him."

That Kader!

sh*t!

They've got Sarah.

See you soon, Déborah.

Sarah was meant to go
straight home from school.

She's not answering messages
or phone calls.

I'll get a fix on her phone.

Adeline,
I spoke to the Prosecutor.

He's told Internal Affairs

and put Kader
on the wanted-persons list.

He's sure they'll be intercepted
before they leave town.

We have to find Sarah first.
Arrest Malek and they'll k*ll her.

I'll speak to the team.

I know you were all shocked
by what happened.

But as you suspected,
Cherif was acting under duress.

We think Malek's accomplices
have abducted Sarah.

If she is released,

Malek will have no hold
over Cherif.

We must find the accomplices
who escaped this morning.

Do they have apartments,

hideouts in which to hold Sarah?

The search also involves Farid.
He's in cahoots with Malek.

He has important information
on Malek and his team.

We need to know how
and by whom she was abducted.

Dumont, Gonzales,

retrace her steps from school
to her mother's home.

That's where she disappeared.

Someone must have seen something.

Oh, no! sh*t, not him.

Is he the one
who thinks Cherif is corrupt?

Very moving.

A paragon of team spirit, really.

But you no longer give the orders.

Forget what he just said,
return to your posts

and await my instructions.

Go back to your posts.

Go on.

Thank you.

Commissioner.
Take me to Cherif's desk.

As it's free,
I'll set up my HQ there

so as not to bother anyone.

Follow me.

So,

what proof do you have
of this supposed abduction?

A message from the kidnappers?

A ransom demand?

Witnesses, perhaps?

No.

That's what I thought.
You have nothing concrete.

But what I do know

is that Cherif's father
is involved with Malek Rouha,

and you arrested Farid Cherif.

But he walked free
on a procedural irregularity.

I have my own theory to propose.

Cherif helps his father
by freeing his accomplice

on the pretence
that he's under duress.

Nice theory.

Our priority is to stop him
doing any harm.

No. We have to give him time
while we look for Sarah.

Leave a renegade officer
at large on the streets?

If you stop him,
his daughter dies.

Wait.

Reassure me, Captain Briard.

Can I count on your collaboration?

Are you going to sabotage
my inquiry?

I could bring you down
for associating with criminals.

Have you nothing better to do
than insult my officers?

Explain to me

how Cherif could have
got out of here so easily.

You didn't even pretend
to try to stop him.

It suggests he had accomplices
in this team.

Please give me access
to the city's CCTV on my computer.

Anything to add?

Just that things would be easier
if you didn't smirk.

By the way,

did you tell Delmas
that her main suspect

in the counterfeiting case
escaped thanks to Cherif?

No.

Don't bother, I'll take care of it.

What are you doing?

I'm not going anywhere
till I speak to Sarah.

Yeah, it's me.

Yes, the car's fine.

There's been a change of plan.

Yes.

I like working with Cherif so much
I'm going to ask him a favour.

I'll explain.

What are you doing?
What about Sarah?

Who do you think you are?

Every cop in Lyon is after us.
Every phone's tapped.

It's a pre-paid SIM,
impossible to trace to me.

Now get out.

Get out!

Don't you see how it works?

Well?

The world's divided
into categories.

You know your classics.

I said get out!

Walk.

Walk!

- In the boot.
- What?

Don't make me repeat it.

Obviously we didn't listen to Dupré.

We're on the case.

We've found
someone close to Malek:

his girlfriend, Morgane Didot.

She's on a plane to Algiers.

- To prepare for their arrival.
- She knew everything.

We need to know who she saw,
who she called.

OK, I'm on it.

We've retraced Sarah's steps.

She was seen in a park
between school and home.

Alone?

A man spoke to her
and she got into a car.

I've no accurate description
of either yet.

But there's a shop nearby
with CCTV pointed at the park.

- I'll get the tapes.
- Good.

Out.

Get a move on!

Walk.

That way.

Come on, hurry up.

Turn left.

Get up there!

Stop dawdling.
Are you taking the piss?

Walk!

What are you looking at?

Get a move on!

Stop.

Go on, get in there.

- What are you doing? Inside!
- That wasn't the deal! Malek!

Where's my daughter? Malek!

Dad?

Sarah.

Are you OK? Look at me.

Did they hurt you?
Look at me.

Don't worry.
I wouldn't let them.

What are you doing here?

I'm sorry, Dad.
He was with me when they took me.

They think I spilled the address
of the counterfeiting plant.

To help my son.

They don't know you.

I'm sick of this place!
I want to get out of here!

Who's the girl?

Morgane, Malek's girlfriend.

- She organised it all.
- Alone?

No. There are guys with them.

Heavies.

It'll be OK, don't worry.

It'll be OK.

Don't worry.

- Thanks.
- We'll find her.

I can't bear it.

It's a nightmare.

Tell me everything, OK?

- I want to know.
- When I have something, yes.

Is Sylvie Delmas with Doucet?

You think she's involved?

It's a way of getting at you
through Kader and me.

She has no reason
to set Malek free.

She's got everything
I had on her.

Maître Atlan, isn't it?

Commissioner Doucet
explained the situation.

I assure you that Interpol
is doing all it can

to find Malek Rouha
and your daughter.

And we all know you have
extensive technical resources.

Right?

- I don't know what you mean.
- Give me a break.

You blackmail me,
hack my computer

and you have the nerve
to offer your help.

Sometimes you have to accept
a helping hand.

You can count on my support.

Adeline.

I'll try to put a word in for you

when your disciplinary hearing
comes up.

You're not solely responsible
for the squad's shortcomings.

For once we're in agreement.

It's important that the guilty
are held responsible.

I have to speak to Doucet.

I'll wait for you.

I have to talk to you.

I was saying to the Commander
that I checked with my contacts.

Morgane Didot, Malek's girlfriend,
never took that plane to Algiers.

Covering her tracks.
So she's still in France?

Meaning she's directing operations.

A lovers' reunion is all very well.

Except that Malek is now free.

So why haven't they freed
Cherif and his daughter?

Maybe they want more from Cherif.

Or they're celebrating together
and laughing at us.

I never did believe your story
about a kidnapping.

You spoke to Delmas?

She came as soon as she heard.

- I think she wants to help.
- But she's not on our side.

It's not a good time,
but I have to tell you something.

OK.

Don't bother,
I already tried everything.

Really?

Do you mind? Thanks.

MacGyver,
season , episode .

I never did like MacGyver.

What are you,
an American actor?

He wouldn't dare...

I don't think he's capable
of what you accuse him of.

- False naivety doesn't suit you.
- You bring me here at night,

my children are at home.
What is this about?

Your last conversation
with Captain Cherif.

I want to know exactly
what you said.

Let's agree
on what you're up against.

You're in a relationship with Cherif,
a fugitive on the run.

I have the right to search
your place of work.

You can't imagine
the negative impression

made by police cars
in a school yard.

No doubt you'll say

that's nothing compared
to searching your home.

Be assured, we'll take your children
into account.

It's upsetting for them
seeing their mother in handcuffs.

You've gone too far, Commander.

In my job, I deal with
teenagers every day.

You soon grow a thick skin.

Intimidation doesn't work with me.

Anyway, I know
you and Cherif met.

I have your text exchanges here.

"We have to talk."

Did he want to tell you
he was going away?

You could put it like that.

He never felt trapped
by our relationship.

But he loves another.

So we broke up.

His only plan
was to meet the other woman

and confess his feelings for her.

In that case,
why are you protecting him?

Did you see him speaking
to his father or meeting him?

What I know about Kader

is that he's honest,
upright and devoted.

Find Sarah.

I want to give her classmates
the good news.

The CCTV footage is here.

Sarah was abducted
with her grandfather.

We've put out a search
on the kidnappers' car.

I'll be looking at it closely.

What do you want with me?

To explain the next stage.

You'll like it, I promise.

Please.

And the car?

Very good. Thanks.

Kader's phone was found
in pieces on the road,

and his
abandoned in a car park.

And the kidnappers' car?

Every cop we have is on the case.

They should have been free by now.

Why keep them?

They're waiting till they're abroad
and properly safe.

Or they're dead.

No. There must be an explanation.

We're missing something.

What do we have on Malek?

Difficult childhood,

petty crime.

At he took
a business-studies degree

paid for by working in a bank.

Then he got fired.

He dropped out of college
and returned to crime.

He's a self-made man.

Exactly.
He's slaved to get where he is.

Yesterday
all his accounts were frozen.

He won't leave empty-handed.

What if he's using Kader
to get back the forged notes?

They're under seal
in the Clerk's Office.

I'll get security heightened.

I've a friend who works there,
I can call her.

Fine.

Lyons Investment Bank

It's madness. You're crazy.

No. I just don't want to be
a penniless tramp.

Not after all I've done.

I won't leave empty-handed.

What about the two of us?

Don't worry, my angel.

I don't give a damn about the cash.

It's a branch I know well.

I staked it out a while back.

Wednesdays
they're all in a meeting.

Only or in the branch.

Any cowboys among them?

It's not their money.
They won't care.

Here's the security door.
Access to the safe is here.

What's Farid's role?

Too many questions, Cherif.

- What did they want?
- Nothing, darling.

Try to get some rest.

Try to sleep, darling.
Do as I say.

They want us to rob a bank, right?

Not you, just me.
They don't need you.

- What do you mean?
- What do I mean?

They don't need you tomorrow.

So why are they bothering
to keep you alive?

Well...

Maybe they think
I have some value for you.

You've been with them
from the start.

When they snatched you,
you were play-acting.

It wasn't by chance.

You were bait.
You used your own granddaughter!

Stop it, Dad!
It wasn't Granddad's fault.

What do you think?

Yes, I was play-acting.

They were going to take Sarah
anyway.

I thought if they believed
I was with them,

I'd be here to protect her.

They don't give a damn about me.

They think I'm a grass,
a good-for-nothing.

You always had an explanation.

Come on, darling.

- There's something I...
- Shh! Quietly.

She's sleeping.

There's something
I always wanted to know.

- What?
- You came to see me in prison once.

Yeah.
My th birthday.

Why did you never come back?

We could've stayed in touch.

Maybe our relationship
would've been different.

You really don't remember?

We talked.
What did you expect?

A walk in the park?
We were in a visiting room.

I came to see you
to try and understand

how you could have
abandoned your family.

Ring any bells?

But all you did

was churn out the same old stuff.

All I wanted
was for you to be honest.

But you weren't even that.

You shifted the blame onto Mum,
your "marriage problems".

But I came to talk to my father,

not my mother's husband.

That day,

I realised you'd never face up
to your responsibilities.

It's time.

It'll be fine, OK?
I'll be back soon.

- With the cavalry.
- Let's go.

Wait for me here.

In hours we're home free, angel.

Stop calling me that.

OK, angel.

What are you doing?

Trying to open the boot.

I'm starting to like you.

- Really?
- Yeah.

Get in.

Go on!

Here. You can play with this
during the heist.

Have a nice trip.

Still no sign of Cherif,

nor of Malek if that's
what you wanted to ask me.

I know.

I've told the Prefect I'm not happy

with how Commissioner Doucet
is handling his team.

Tell me about it.

So, what can I do for you?

It's what I can do for you.

I've heard that you suspect
Kader Cherif and his father

of organising Malek's escape.

Nothing escapes you.

Your reputation precedes you.

You have Cherif in your sights,
but you have nothing concrete.

For now.

This might interest you.

What is it?

What's this about?

What do you want in return?

Nothing.

Let's say that...

in this case,
our interests converge.

MacGyver,
season , episode .

- f*ck it!
- I'll go get another car.

That MacGyver's not so bad
after all.

These photos were taken
two days ago,

when they were plotting.

- Commander Dupré...
- No, no.

You can't protect him any more.

Not this time, OK?

You can keep them.

Baudemont.

Cherif left us a message.
A guy was car-jacked.

The suspect is Malek.

The stolen car was found
with the boot open.

He left us this.

Kader was in there
and scratched this?

So, "K", "SFMP", "S E ",

and a lightning flash.

I started decoding it.
"K" is for Kader. OK?

Then...

- That's all I got.
- Right.

I didn't...

Thanks. That's a good start.

I'm guessing the rest
is a reference to a cop show.

"'S E ":

season , episode .

Right!

He's written what Malek
is going to do.

But what's "SFMP"?

A show title in words?

Cherif.

- What about him?
- No, not that one.

The one in The Dukes of Hazzard.

SFMP: Shérif, fais-moi peur,
the French title.

That's it.

I just realised:
"Shérif" and "Cherif"...

I'd never seen it.

He's called Cherif
and he's a cop.

That's two Cherifs.

Season , episode
is about a bank raid.

What's the lightning flash for?

Something electric?

Malek worked at the bank
in place Ampère.

He knows the building by heart.

He's going to rob the bank
with Cherif's help.

You want me to let Cherif
rob a bank?

If they get the money,
they'll lead us to Sarah.

That's why he left the message.

We can't do that
and not tell Internal Affairs.

But we have to.

If Dupré knows about the raid,
he'll arrest them.

Sarah risks being k*lled.

Adeline...

I've contacted the bank manager.

I've got a plan.

I need or cops
whom Malek didn't see yesterday.

Hey! Where is everyone?

Doucet, Briard
and the little fat guy.

What?

- Where are they?
- Er...

Yes?

In the interview room, now.

Go on!

On the ground!
Everybody get down!

Don't move!

Hands up!

Against the wall!

So?

What exactly is going on?

A mutiny?
You all want to wreck your careers?

You no longer want to be a cop?

Yes, on the contrary.

But no one tells me anything.

You just got here.

You owe them nothing.
You have one chance to survive.

One.

So take it!

Downstairs, now!

Don't try anything.

Open the door.

Get in! Come on! Faster!

Quick! Get over there.

Don't move.

You two, on your knees!
Anyone who moves is dead!

You, come with me.

Where are you taking him?

Aren't there enough safes in here?

It's that one I want.

What?

Open it.

Hurry up!

- Hello?
- They want the nd safe code.

What are you doing?

I don't understand.

Open the safe!

- This wasn't planned.
- I know. Just tell me.

Hurry up!

Get us out, Adeline.

Hold the line.

What are you playing at?

On my mother's life,
you'll open that safe!

Open it!

Calm down.
Let me talk to him.

Let me talk to him.

I'll talk to him.

What are you playing at?

Well?

It's not your money in there.

- Give me the code!
- I don't have it.

Come on, move!

Stay on the line,
they're sending it to me.

Yes, I will. Please hurry.

I've got a great idea.

Have you seen It Takes A Thief?

A cop show from the ' s.

What are you playing at?

It starred Robert Wagner,
they made seasons.

They opened safes
with a stethoscope,

but also by ear.

It might work.

- Write this down. .
- Thank you.

I hope he sees it.

- It's coming.
- Hurry up.

Don't mess me around.

Just let me do it.

No funny business.

- Just let me do it.
- What are you doing?

It's coming, just wait...

It's OK, I think I've got it.

Out of the way. Let him do it.

Move it.

Open it.

Don't mess me around.

Hurry up.

Out of the way.

Put the lot in the bag.

Come on!

Hurry up!

Go!

Hurry up. Faster.

- Boss.
- What is it?

All their phones
are in the same area.

A surveillance van
is parked in front of a bank.

What?

Are they having a party
without their old pal Dupré?

Go, go, go!

Let's go!

Come on! Hurry up!

Drop your g*ns!

OK, OK.

- On the ground!
- Hurry up!

- OK.
- On the ground!

Drop the g*n.

Hands on your head.

Two individuals intercepted
without incident.

Your colleagues
just condemned Sarah.

She's dead.

It'll be fine, don't worry.

- What about Sarah?
- She's fine.

Kader, where is she?

Commander.

So we meet again.

- OK, Commander?
- Thanks, guys.

I won't say I've missed you.

Wait...
It's going to be a long day.

I have to talk to all your colleagues
who broke the law.

Their careers end here.

In a pathetic bank raid
because of you.

It'll go much quicker
than you think.

It'll take time. Relax.

You must listen to me.

Are you planning
one of your tricks?

- No.
- Sit down.

- Listen...
- What do we have here?

"Aiding the escape of a suspect",

"threatening a police employee
with a w*apon",

and of course, "armed robbery".

- OK, listen...
- Don't get up.

Stay sitting.

Do you have some malicious reply?

A reference to some cop show?

No? Then sit back down.

Give me your pen.
You have one, don't you?

Why?

To sign my confession.

I admit everything.

The escape, the robbery,
everything.

Whatever you want.

You're a mystery to me.

There's no mystery.

With these you can send me
to prison

for years, just as you want.

All I ask of you

is hours to free my daughter.

hours.

They're going to k*ll her.

Just hours, Commander.

If my daughter dies, you'll be
saying goodbye to the police.

It's OK.

Here's what we'll do.

- We have Malek's phone.
- Good.

First we have to reassure
his fiancée, Morgane.

She's waiting for news.

And how do we make it credible?

He had a nickname for her.

"My angel".

"My angel" it is.

Go.

"OK, I'll get ready to leave.
Your angel."

You realise
I need to have you followed.

Can't lose my valuable prisoner.

Fine, but do it discreetly.

You seem to be enjoying
shutting me in here.

It's my revenge
for all you put me through.

- Ready?
- Yes, receiving you loud and clear.

You're sure
I don't need to tie you up?

Don't push your luck, Captain.

I remembered every sensation
so as to recall the route.

Good thinking.

I can't take the credit.

The Return of the Saint,
season , episode .

Really? I must watch that one.

I have to let her go.

Who's that?

Sarah.

I wanted her close to protect her,
and look where I am.

Cherif...

No, it's time.

I have to let her go.

We went past a rail track. I heard

the freight trains.

That's the level crossing.

Then I smelt food cooking.

Maybe a Chinese restaurant.

- See it?
- Yes.

Now

slow down, there's a...

speed ramp.
- Yes.

Thanks, Adeline.
You did that on purpose.

Now there's a road

that's a bit rough.

Yes.

At the end of that road,
we went up a ramp.

A disused factory?

Yes, that's it.

OK. I'll call for back-up.
They're nearby.

OK, great.

Police!
Drop your weapons!

Against the wall!
Against the wall, I said!

It's clear.

You could've found another excuse
to skip lessons.

Come on, let's go home.

The Prosecutor
refuses to charge Cherif.

What about us,
his "accomplices"?

Ditto.

Due to exceptional circumstances.
Practically a state of emergency.

You don't seem too upset.

Maybe because I have a feeling
we'll meet again.

You can take it or leave it, but...

be careful, Captain Briard.

There are some who wish you ill.

Here, your confession.

Keep it.

No, take it as a souvenir.

- A good omen for next time.
- Keep it.

It'll give you a goal advantage
for the next match.

- Not thanking me?
- For what?

Yes. For your sleep.

You can continue to sleep
peacefully.

Not only did I save
your conscience,

I saved your career too.

The whole team was there for you.

Naturally, I'm the Sheriff.

All the same,

I'll never forget
what you did for me.

There was something between us.

At no point

did I feel alone.

It seems you and I

don't need to speak
to understand each other.

Anyway, you sailed
very close to the wind this time.

Mounting an undercover operation
despite Internal Affairs

isn't like you.

I had to play your role.

But now you're here,
I'll be playing it straight.

Shame. It suited you being
a rebel cop and cool all at once.

- Like you had a role model.
- A source of inspiration, at most.

What's that doing there?

It's...

I was naive enough
to trust Delmas' word.

Go home and get some rest.

And look after Sarah.
We'll talk about Delmas tomorrow.

I promise you
we'll take her down.

Come to lecture me again?

Morgane exonerated you
for the abduction.

She confirmed your version.

We can't touch you
for the fake notes, so you're free.

I'll make a statement.

I'll confess to the fake notes.

Do you realise
the risk you're taking?

You'll go straight inside.

I'm tired of running, son.

And tell Sarah

that I'll face up
to my responsibilities.

No one ever did that before.

What's he up to?

I don't know.

He seems sincere.

Maybe he wants
to make it up to Sarah.

And maybe to you, also.

The worst was not knowing
where you were, what was happening.

That's nice, Mum.

We need to talk about the States.

I never thought I'd say this,

but there comes a time.

- And it's now.
