01x04 - Episode 4

[bunniefuu]

How long have you been

in this unit?

Djibouti's been here two years.

Me, six months ago.

My husband was treated

by a doctor in Arras.

I'd like a safe passage permit

to visit him.

I'm sorry, but I can't.

I'll do all I can

to find out who informed the Germans.

I'll question everyone

who was working in the lab,

starting with you.

I don't know

what happened to your husband

- But?

- Doctor Roux.

He's hiding something.

What happened?

He wasn't human.

His voice was controlling me.

He k*lled everyone.

I've been waiting

for someone like you.

Smile, gentlemen!

That's it!

Your families

will be so proud to see you.

You're defending France!

You're the pride of France! Heroes

He was inside my head.

His voice was controlling me.

These photos are from a film

shot by the armed forces.

My men found it.

It confirms the witness statements.

Now, we know this soldier is real.

Were you aware of the German program?

We knew they too

were carrying out research

but believed

they were far behind us.

Seems they've caught up.

So far, only one soldier

has been seen.

Their protocol is not fully active.

What about you? Any progress?

We're back at work.

I've put a team together.

You're costing us huge amounts

of money. You gave us your word.

I always said it would take time,

and luck.

While you're taking time

and treading water,

our a*tillery and aviation

are struggling.

If the Germans have a program,

this is no time to abandon our own.

And this German soldier?

What do we know?

Mainly rumors.

Two days ago he attacked

a church in Margival,

then 30 minutes later,

was seen near Goussainville.

That's 60 kilometers away.

It's nonsense.

That's the problem, sir.

If the rumors spread,

it would be catastrophic.

Our positions are too weak.

We're close to breaking point.

This man could singlehandedly

lose us the w*r.

Then he must be

eliminated immediately.

He was last seen

a few hours ago in La Coudraye.

We're sending a unit

to neutralize him.

Your men?

Our men

The Sentinels will

wipe the floor with him, sir.

Won't they, Colonel?

You can count on it.

They're going to La Coudraye.

THE SENTINELS

Doctor Roux was under

a lot of pressure to keep quiet

about certain things

that happened in Arras.

But what did they do

with my husband?

All I know is, a Colonel called

and put pressure on the Doctor.

What? Which Colonel?

Colonel Mirreau.

Mirreau?

Please excuse me

for a moment.

SENTINELS CAMP

PICARDY

Based on the intel we're receiving,

the German soldier has been seen

striking here, here,

and possibly here.

How far is the German front line?

The Krauts are three kilometers

north of La Coudraye.

What's that?

The factory at Pierrefeu.

It's abandoned now.

Probably that b*stard's rear base.

They'll update you at La Coudraye.

His armor is impressive.

Seen his weaponry?

That's a 12-caliber.

- Did you know, Captain?

- No.

- And Mirreau?

- We're his w*r dogs.

Why would he tell us?

Anyway, this b*stard

has done enough damage.

Our scouts are no match.

Let's go, guys.

- Take him out.

- It would be an honor, Captain.

Gladly.

- Got the outpost coordinates?

- Yeah. Looks risky though.

Let's go!

May I?

Be my guest.

Gruber's autopsy report

is extraordinary.

It's as if his heart was crushed.

Let's hope

his notebooks reveal something.

I'm still looking

for their middleman,

but I will find him.

I'm clearly intruding.

My apologies.

This laboratory is incredible.

For someone like me, that is.

It has that effect on people.

- The techniques we're developing

- No, not that.

I've requested accounts,

status reports

and got nothing.

With all due respect, that's not

part of your investigation.

All your colleagues,

whenever they're questioned,

they seem afraid to talk.

It's a secret program.

They're following orders.

I think they're scared of you.

Scared of me?

So, I'm imagining things?

I'm afraid so.

Unless I'm mistaken,

the program was

already active in 1905.

What exactly were you testing

back then?

I don't have to answer that.

I checked your archives.

That whole year is missing.

When I asked the Ministry,

they simply said

that you had left the country.

What do you think I am?

You think I'm a thief,

is that it?

Some kind of smuggler?

My father wasn't

a senator like yours.

He delivered coal.

His job was dirty and difficult,

but necessary.

Like him, I do my job

because somebody has to do it.

I'm not looking for a promotion

or a medal.

I'm running a program

that may win us the w*r.

Now, I must ask you to leave.

I have somewhere to be.

There's too much mystery

around the Sentinels.

When all of this comes to light,

I doubt you'll emerge clean-handed

Colonel.

In Paris, steak like this

is hard to come by.

I'm not hungry.

At least try the wine.

That's not bad, either.

I looked into

when they're reopening the Opera.

It won't be for a while.

I have to take you to the Opera.

You'll see, it's fantastic.

And if this f*cking w*r

is over by the summer,

I'll take you to the sea,

just like we always said.

Is this how you apologize?

What I asked of you

I wish I hadn't

But you had no choice.

Did you?

So let's forget it.

This is Damien Berrard.

He's volunteered to join our program.

A brave young soldier.

Took a b*llet to the right lung.

They say you're going to fix me.

Miss Fontanay

will be overseeing the injection.

I don't have the experience.

Mazauric was the expert on this.

I can't possibly decide whether

Decide whether

to sacrifice a life?

If there are complications,

I won't know what to do.

Mazauric never explained.

He just did it.

Your program is in danger.

Joffre is having doubts

and we need to get results.

The Germans have their first soldier.

They're gaining on us.

This is no time for doubt.

I don't know if I can do it.

So I was wrong,

the day I recruited you?

I know this is

a great responsibility.

But you'll rise to it.

Once the w*r is over,

I'd like to work with horses.

When you see how many

are massacred out there

The poor things don't understand.

I always wanted to be a vet.

What's your plan?

Get a ranch and play cowboys?

Yeah. Why not?

How did she sleep?

Fine.

But I can't stop thinking

about what that nurse said. And

I've been called in to the office.

They didn't appreciate

my little trip to the front.

It wasn't a great idea.

Should I look

for a vacancy at Souplet?

No, I'll manage.

Don't worry.

I'm not worried.

Well, not much.

I don't want you

to start getting ideas.

Think of Lucien. It will help.

I have to know

what happened to Gabriel.

It's hard not knowing how he died,

but you have to

think of yourself, now.

When your uncle died,

I thought I'd never recover.

Then

little by little

day by day

I don't want to get over this.

You never do.

Don't worry.

Prepare the injection.

Will it hurt?

Don't worry.

Bite down on this.

April 13th, 4:15 p.m.

Go ahead.

Commence protocol.

Let's begin.

Pulse, 150.

Adrenalin, 8.

A dose of Robuthein?

Proceed.

What do we do?

Marthe?

Make a note.

Protocol 6-4B was inconclusive.

LA COUDRAYE FORES

Calm down.

We're on your side.

Who's in charge here?

Me.

Lieutenant Brunet is dead.

Corporal Becker.

- What's your regiment?

- We don't have one.

Waiting for reinforcements?

We've had no news

since yesterday.

Did you hear anything?

Great.

If you're hungry, all we've got

is beans with beans. But it's hot.

I wouldn't say no.

Why hasn't he been sent back?

The doctor said

it was just shellshock,

that he'd get over it.

How long will you stay here?

Until we're dead.

The brigadier warned us

anyone retreating

will be shot, so

We need to reach

the Pierrefeu factory.

How far is it

if we go through the woods?

You shouldn't go there.

They say there's a demon there.

k*lling every Frenchman he sees.

Waging w*r on God.

He walked in on a mass

and k*lled the congregation.

The priest, the children,

the elderly

Have you seen him?

They say he can k*ll

just by looking at you.

He destroyed a fortress by himself,

near Bréjon.

With soldiers like that,

the Krauts will soon take Paris.

You make it sound

like we've already lost.

You still think we can win?

Of course.

How do you think

the enemy feels?

They're tired.

Freezing cold.

They've watched their comrades die.

Like us.

Like us.

But they're far from home.

Getting nowhere.

They were told the French

were vermin,

that they'd crush us in no time.

But we're still here,

holding out.

One day we'll push them back.

Do you know why we're here?

To k*ll your demon.

So you're

the Sentinels?

Some folks are saying that we've got

our own super-soldiers, too.

Like giants.

Do we look like giants?

It's a matter of principle.

I take no pleasure in this.

I understand.

You understand? Really?

- I think it's a shame.

- That's for sure.

I've been a proof-reader here

for four years.

I'm punctual, reliable,

and I love the work.

You mean, spotting errors,

adding accent circumflexes

you love that?

I enjoy what I do.

Well, it's too late.

I've already found

a proof-reader to replace you.

What about a journalist?

Hire me as a journalist.

- You?

- You don't have enough.

Descombel and Rosier were drafted.

Marchand is next.

So, instead of firing you,

I should promote you?

We're at w*r. Things are different.

You know I can write.

Being able to write isn't enough.

A journalist has to be brave.

Devious, even.

I stole a permit

to get to the front.

Isn't that proof enough

of bad behavior?

You okay?

Don't worry.

I couldn't sleep either.

What's that?

A medal for protection.

My grandma gave it to me.

She was a healer.

I used to think it was nonsense.

Now, I know

I'd be dead without it.

All clear.

Then you'd better take it.

Okay, guys, let's go!

Massacring old people

children

Why would he do that?

To scare us.

Get inside our heads.

You're not scared?

Where I grew up,

it was better to hide your emotions.

Then in reform school,

if you showed any fear,

you were bound

to end up in trouble.

So you are scared,

but you lock it away?

I learned to over time.

You're good at it.

This power of his

to get inside people's heads,

do you think that's possible?

I don't know.

See? You're the same as me.

You think it's possible.

Remember who we are.

Are you with us or not?

Get a hold of yourself.

Forget that nonsense.

Not far, now.

Get ready.

They're searching

all the bars in the area.

The pigs are asking questions

about Gruber.

They were seen leaving Ferazzi's

and now they're at Sagitaire.

You think Gruber squealed?

Of course not. What do they know?

There are dozens of bars

in northern Paris.

Don't get c*ck, Baron.

Stop being so scared, will you?

Tell the Germans,

no more working together. Distance.

Go on.

Don't look at me like that.

You'd better be right.

Gisèle!

- I don't have much time.

- I got our papers.

REPUBLIC OF FRANCE

PASSPOR

Mr. and Mrs. Deslauriers!

Newlyweds seemed more believable.

If he finds us, he'll k*ll you.

He won't find us. I promise.

First, we'll go to London,

then cross the Atlantic.

I'll find a job.

They need people out there.

When do we leave?

Soon. When I have the tickets,

I'll let you know.

Be ready to leave immediately.

With only a small suitcase.

I don't own anything, anyway.

Hey.

- I have to go.

- Go on.

All the secrets I keep,

the things I have to hide

It's getting harder and harder.

Remember the words

of Saint Luke, my child.

"There is nothing hidden

that will not be disclosed,

"no secret that

shall not be revealed."

I can't make those decisions.

Sometimes I think

I should stop all of this.

Sometimes

You're continuing your experiments?

More people have died.

It is forbidden

to take a fellow human's life.

It's a sacred Commandment.

But our intentions are good.

And I remember the intentions

of the gifted student

who came here believing

that science would save mankind.

Look at what this belief

is making you do.

I can't sleep.

I'm lost.

And yet you persist.

What are you hoping for, Marthe?

Forgiveness?

God have mercy on me.

PIERREFEU FACTORY

f*ck

Ferraud! De Clermont.

Dose up!

De Clermont, Ferraud, cover us!

Armand and I will go behind

and cut him off.

Djib! Are you hit?

It's the f*cking Dyx!

Leave me.

I'll be okay.

- Find the others.

- Let's go.

Find them!

Go!

Don't move.

We'll take care of you.

It'll be okay.

It'll be okay, alright?

Get down!

sh*t

You okay?

Yeah.

Behind you!

You must choose your side.

Lord, I have sinned against you.

All these times I've turned to evil,

I've been turning back

toward my old life.

Help me to stand firm

against my failings

and walk the path of truth again.

Lord, I beg you,

grant me your mercy.

And if I sin again,

descend upon me

with all your wrath.

Amen.

Alright, Djib?

It's okay, I'm here.

I'm glad.

You'll be okay, kid.

You'll be okay.

We'll get you out of here.

I don't want to die.

I don't want to die, Djib!

Look at me. Look at me!

- I don't want to die.

- You won't!

You're going to make it,

you hear me?

Armand!

Don't do this.

f*ck!
