Le Bureau des Legendes (2015) s02e04 Episode Script

Season 2, Episode 4

THESE CHARACTERS AND SITUATIONS ARE FICTIONAL.
ANY RESEMBLANCE TO REAL LIFE IS ACCIDENTAL.
THE BUREAU 'He said, "You're a rotten swine.
" 'What does swine mean?' YOUR TAXI HAS ARRIVED TEHRAN, IRAN I haven't eaten since this morning.
- Are you hungry? - Yes.
You'll eat when we're done.
May I at least have something to drink? Hey! - Why did you do that? - It's alcohol.
So'? Don't you drink alcohol? Not when it's this strong.
So you're not drunk here? No.
They took me by surprise.
BY Surprise? Was the party a surprise too? No, I was invited.
I didn't know it would be like that.
Why do you continue to see Shapur? We've become friends.
- Who is with her? - Zamani's entire gang was picked up.
They're being held in various places.
They even picked up Daria.
- The fiancée? - That's right.
The Pasdaran are using the Zamani son to get to his father.
I told them Zamani was too dangerous.
And now they've taken me off the case.
It's driving me nuts.
You were already a little nuts.
Don't worry.
It will be fine.
They'll let her go.
Come on.
What if her phone's off? - It will work anyway.
- For how long? Two weeks.
Even without the battery? It will still work.
You have everyone's number here, don't you? I do.
I want the same thing for the whole team.
Meaning? I want a map of Paris with 15 red flashing dots on it.
Yours too.
This is between us.
If anyone finds out, you're fired.
We weren't on our way to a party.
Do you think we don't know that? You were preparing orgies in the desert.
We were going to take seismic readings! With Zamani? He commissioned a study from our institute.
Sure he did! He listens to rap and takes drugs.
- So do you.
- No, I don't.
We whip addicts to clean them up.
Yes? You've had the French girl for 48 hours now.
This is no time to start a diplomatic crisis with France.
Why not? They were inflexible in the nuclear discussions.
So what? We could mess with them, teach them a lesson.
Tell me, Hachem, what do you think of the nuclear agreement? Answer me.
What do you think of it? I don't know.
So why are you determining our diplomatic policy? Arsehole.
Marina Loiseau? Get on.
Hold on to your things.
You're going to your grandmother's funeral.
- Where are we going? - The airport.
- Hello.
- Hello.
This is Dr Lemoine.
He's training me.
That's very good.
How are you? I'm OK.
Hello, Doctor.
There you go.
Now, go and lie down.
We'll clean up.
OK? I'm right on time.
He's going to call now? What if he says no? Hello? How are you? I'm OK.
How's Mum? She's better.
It's not cancer.
What about you? Yeah, I'm OK.
- We could send a drone.
- El-Salaam hospital.
They always call from a hospital or a school.
Listen.
I have to ask you something.
Can we see one another? - What? - I need to talk to you.
You think I'm coming back? I'm not crazy.
I'll come to you.
To talk about what? About me and Mum.
Aren't we talking now? Yeah, but I want to see you, to make sure you're OK.
It's way too dangerous.
- For who? - For you.
We can meet somewhere safe.
You can tell me where.
Do you think you can just show up? It's not Club Med.
And what about Mum? She wants to know how you are, how you really are.
No Way.
Forget it.
It's a crazy idea.
You stay at home and take care of Mum.
Guillaume, did you read the file? What do you think? She can't say she wants to join the jihad.
He won't buy it.
It's too out of the blue.
Say she was scared to tell him before.
Why would she be scared? Is she very devout? She's devout.
Has there been any anti-Muslim events in France these past two days? A speech condemning them.
- Something disturbing.
- I'm looking.
URGENT MEETING OF SYRIAN OPPONENTS TO DISCUSS NADIA EL MANSOUR'S EXECUTION FOR HIGH TREASON Nothing? Nothing obvious.
She should invent a story.
Something upsetting that happened to her.
Has the DGSI dispatch from 10:45 pm been confirmed? Or a patient accusing her of being a radical.
She could say France has become unbearable.
She can't practice her religion freely.
Excuse me a minute.
- It's getting too difficult.
- Yes, that could work.
Excuse me.
Everything OK? I just need to check something at my desk.
Any news of Nadia El Mansour? Nadia El Mansour? No, nothing.
At least, nothing new.
- Why are you lying? - I'm not.
- And badly at that.
- No.
It's disrespectful to lie so badly.
Nadia El Mansour has reportedly been executed.
- A rumour? - A dispatch.
The Syrians? I'm sorry.
Why would you be sorry? She might not have been executed.
It's not a certainty.
It doesn't seem to affect you.
I respect you.
Keep me updated.
As discussed, your grandmother has died.
It's hit you hard so you've taken leave.
Don't contact us.
You're a grieving seismologist on holiday in Paris.
That's it.
For urgent messages go jogging in the Luxembourg gardens every day.
This is the route.
We'll find you there if we need to.
But we won't need to.
An athletic break.
Here.
Zamani was released yesterday.
We know.
What does it say? He wants to see me in Tehran.
What do I reply? Your grandmother died.
You had to rush home.
- You - Full stop.
That's enough to justify your silence.
If he calls back, leaves messages or sends flowers for your grandmother, don't reply again.
- He'll find that strange.
- We don't care.
It's too risky? The Guardians of the Revolution are the worst.
What happens when I go back? I don't know if you're going back.
We'll examine the risks and review your situation over there.
Keep in touch with Mortazavi.
We need to know how he sees you, if he wants to keep you on.
If he's scared, it's over.
That will be a first indication.
Shapur Zamani's not a target anymore? No.
We're losing a goldmine.
I've made my decision.
- Hi.
- Hi.
Shapur Zamani is coming to Paris.
- Is that a problem? - You're going to get him here.
What? What about Duflot? I convinced him.
How do I do that? Contact him, see how he is.
Suggest a change of scenery.
OK.
Do you miss him? It's not that.
It's just Forget it.
- Too much holiday? - Exactly.
I'm bored.
For emergency contact with me do you have a Twitter account? Here's a list of accounts.
To contact me, follow the first one, then the second one and so on.
I'll regularly check your activity.
OK.
Marina.]
How are you? Fine.
You? Sorry I couldn't call earlier, what with my grandmother and that.
You poor thing.
I'm so sorry.
About your grandmother and the arrest.
Was it awful? It was hard.
I was scared.
I think they let me go sooner because I'm French.
What about you? They let us go three days ago.
I'm in Geneva, with Daria.
- You're right next door! - Come and see us.
I have to help my mother with my grandmother's apartment.
And I have to see the lawyer.
What a shame.
I know, it's so close.
A three-hour train ride.
- We'll come to you.
- Sefloushf? Let him talk first.
That may work better.
Everything OK? No, it's not.
- What's going on? - It won't be OK as long as you're over there.
I'm not coming home and this is no place for you.
France is no place for me! Everyone hates us here.
This isn't a land of Islam.
What's happened? Nothing, but It's getting harder and harder.
You can't understand.
You're in the land of Islam over there.
What happened? I just lost my third patient.
She doesn't want me to treat her anymore.
I asked her why.
She said she was scared.
"Scared of what?", I asked.
She replied, "I don't know what you put in your injections.
" She's scared I'll poison her.
We're pariahs.
I want to come and join you.
I could help you over there.
I could take care of people who aren't afraid of my hijab.
Don't the people with you need nursing care and help? Why didn't you tell me this before? You didn't give me a chance.
If you come, you have to do as I say or I can't protect you.
We'll meet in a safe location.
I'll have a think about it.
I'll call you tomorrow.
I have to get organized.
I'll do as you say.
Tomorrow, same time.
- Little sister? - Yes'? What I've just heard makes my heart rejoice.
I have to go.
They need me.
I'll call you back.
He said yes? It's so hard to lie to my brother.
It's the only way to help him.
Would you come with me? I can't go on my own.
You know that.
What I've just heard makes my heart rejoice.
I have to go.
They need me.
I'll call you back.
That's the guy speaking Arabic in the background? "Toufik AI-Azraq Dakin.
Come here.
We need you.
" What does that mean? Azraq Dakin? It means dark blue.
That's his nickname? It's probably his jihad name.
But I don't understand.
Why dark blue? I'll listen again.
Maybe I missed something.
I have to go.
They need me.
I'll call you back.
He was just a phone call away, the guy who beheads people with a butcher's knife.
This wedding band feels weird.
I'm not married.
Are you? Am I what? Are you married? No.
But I have a boyfriend.
- You're the serious type.
- Yes.
- On the verge of boring? - Too boring for you.
The boss is waiting for my report.
Hi, there.
I'm really sorry.
I got you arrested.
You almost missed your grandmother's funeral.
It was an ordeal.
But it wasn't your fault.
Yes, it was.
Hi.
I owe you one.
And my father agrees, for once.
We're going to the Tour d'Argent.
Do you know the Tour d'Argent? Shapur, I'm not going anywhere.
I'm tired.
I'm going to lie down for a while.
Is something wrong? I must have caught a bug.
Shapur, come and help me? Ouch! Be careful.
What's wrong with Daria? - She's in pain.
- Where? - Her back.
- Did she burn herself? - She was whipped.
- What? She refused to hold the Koran while they whipped her so she got 30 lashes instead of 10.
That's horrible.
We went to see a burn specialist in Geneva.
She's in shock.
It's not your fault.
I thought this couldn't happen to her, that her relationship to us would protect her.
It's just the opposite.
They took it out on her because she's with me.
- Can I ask you something? - Sure.
I have an important meeting tonight, organized by my father.
Can you stay with Daria? I don't want her to be alone.
Sure.
Of course I'll stay with her.
I think she's sleeping.
I'll go and check.
FOLLOW INCOMING CALL UNKNOWN NUMBER Yes? - Can we talk? - Yes.
It's Henri.
Everything OK? Fine.
Where are you? Rue de Lille, in front of a restaurant.
I have a date.
Too bad.
I'm at the office.
I wanted to grab a drink.
- You're working late.
- Sorry.
No problem.
See you tomorrow.
See you.
- Goodbye.
- Thanks.
Good night.
For you.
Thanks.
Emmanuel Boirond.
He handles Areva's politically sensitive files.
Shapur Zamani saw him last night.
They spent the evening together.
His father's idea? Obviously.
How did you do it? It's my job.
The meeting place with Chevalier is in a sheep barn in Turkey, near the Syrian border.
The area is full of barns.
We'll only know which one once you're there.
Chevalier said he'd join you 48 hours later.
He'll probably leave from Mosul in Iraq.
So we go, and once we're there, we wait to be taken to the barn? Exactly.
And, assuming we make it to the barn, what do we do then? Turkish special forces will take over and turn the barn into a trap.
The Turks will do that? We're in Turkey.
It has to be the Turks.
Is that a problem? What exactly will they do? We're not telling you, That way you'll be as surprised as the girl.
OK, I see.
What if there's a problem along the way? We'll make sure there isn't.
Will there be a communication system in place? Between us and you? Absolutely not.
But the Turks and ourselves will be chatting away.
Raymond, you're escorting Mother Teresa.
She wants you to convince her brother to return.
All you have to do is play that role on the journey.
You're the lawyer who can save her brother.
I know that.
If something takes you by surprise, there's an 80% chance that it's us.
80%? Great! Gentlemen, I'd like a word with Raymond.
We're leaving.
There's a 20% chance this could fail.
You understand that? Yeah.
If you want to back out, you still can.
No one will blame you.
On the contrary, we'll blame you for going if you're hesitant.
We don't force anyone to go on such an mission if they're not convinced.
You can still say no.
What happens if I do? That's not your concern.
I'm in.
Wholeheartedly.
"Act in such a way that you treat humanity, "both within yourself and in others, "always and concurrently as an end, "and never simply as a means.
" That's right.
Number three Can you turn that off? It's annoying.
I'll mute it.
- Are you waiting for something? - Yes.
What? Third maxim.
"Two things fill the mind "with unremitting admiration and awe" Sorry.
It took two and a half hours, what with all the security.
A convoluted route? I don't know how many guys were on me, but they're being careful.
That's why we're meeting in a hotel.
It wasn't my idea.
I'd rather be in a cafe.
I know.
I didn't choose the hotel either.
The DGSE did.
Lousy taste.
Actually, I didn't choose any of this.
- Not even seeing me? - Of course.
I asked.
I don't like not hearing from you.
How are you? I'm good.
Work is pretty intense right now.
- What about you? - Iran - You can't tell me.
- Not really.
I have a girlfriend.
Great.
Who is she? I met her through the DGSI.
Is she a terrorist? She's a colleague.
- We're going to live together.
- Really? It's going well.
It's nice.
She's nice.
But she's not you.
- Do you come home a lot? - No.
This was unexpected.
But you're OK? Yes.
It got a little serious, but that's over now.
- Are you going back? - Yes.
Wait.
Your girlfriend? No, I - Not in the mood? - It's not that.
It's just It took too long.
The drive and everything.
The security protocol I'm drained.
Do you want to watch videos? No, I should go.
Bye, then.
AMERICAN MILITARY STRIKES ON SYRIAN REBELS It's when something doesn't need to be justified.
It imposes itself as a categorical imperative.
Then there's the hypothetical imperative.
That's when It's an obligation.
An obligation connected to a goal.
Will I be OK? In this job we win no wars.
We only win small battles.
And when we do, they are never really victories.
We still walk away with injuries.
"Yes.
"You'll be OK.
"You'll be OK, my daughter.
" I wanted to say it.
I wanted to scream it.
But I knew it wouldn't be OK, never again.
Are you all right, Basem? Bathroom? No, thank you.
You don't look well.
What are you doing? Am I being transferred? Tell me.
Am I going to court? For a hearing? - Be quiet.
- To another jail? I'm sorry.
It will be very quick, Madam.
Take her back to her room.
Nadia.
Wake up.
Were you scared? That's normal.
I managed to spare you.
The Americans tried to negotiate over you.
It only made your situation worse.
Judge Badran took over your case.
You may be executed.
There in the courtyard, just like earlier.
What do you want? Bashar asked us, his secret service, how you could be useful to him.
We answered, "if she backs the opposition that doesn't threaten us.
"That's how she can be useful.
People listen to her.
" So there you have it.
We'll release you if you agree to go to Paris and openly and actively support our opponent Ahmad AI-Roumi.
Help him, sing his praises.
If you refuse, you're dead.
Once you're in Paris, if your work is unsatisfactory, you'll be eliminated.
Along with your family.
14 MISSED CALLS Do we stay on her? Until she returns to the hotel.
- Marina.
- Are you OK'? - Yes.
- Are you sure? You called me 14 times.
I'm not OK.
Are you crying? Where are you? I don't want Daria to see me like this.
Did you take something? Come and help me.
Where are you? At the Louvre, in front of the pyramid.
I'm on my way.
Sorry, please take me to the Louvre.
Where is she going? - It's Grandma.
- Yes? We're covering Phénoméne for her meeting.
And? It's over but she's not going back to her hotel.
She's going towards the Louvre.
I'll take care of it.
- What are you doing? - Meeting an Iranian friend.
- Don't go.
- I'm here already.
Keep walking.
Avoid him.
Why? Iranian counter-espionage is following him.
Is that a problem? He's coming towards me.
What do I do? - Too bad.
- What's too bad? You're right.
We'll file a report tomorrow.
You came.
What's going on? I had a fight with Daria.
She mustn't see me like this.
A fight about what? She doesn't want to go back to Iran.
She wants us to settle here.
Are you following? Will you call it in? Sorry it's late, but we thought we should tell you right away.
Should Phénoméne be on a Paris-by-n/Qght tour with a boy? The guy from DGSI? That's why you're covering her.
No, someone she met later on.
A tanned guy, dark-skinned.
Smells Iranian to me, if you know what I mean.
If they split up one of you follow him.
Identify him.
I want to know everything.
- The calm before the storm? - Worried about me? Not at all.
But you came to say goodbye? Are you excited about going away with a nurse? Is that a fantasy? No, but she's endearing.
I like her.
HI! HE'S FUNNY YEAH.
THAT'S IT.
I'M OFF TO WALK MY DOG.
WHEN? TOMORROW.
WHAT'S YOUR DOG'S NAME? COUJARD.
WE'LL DO AS THE CHINESE DO AND EAT DOG.
SEE YOU SOON, SIS.
Thank you.
