Episode 2
1 Fire brigade Something on your mind? Yeah.
I think he knows who shot at him.
And I think he knows what's going on with these houses.
Why do you say that? It's my gut feeIing.
Your gut feeIing.
Maxine, it's his Iooks, his siIences this, his hometown What was he doing? Going for a stroII at six in the morning? Who wouId beIieve that? Don't give me that Iook.
What is it? I Iike you, Sandra.
But you're making this personaI.
Not at aII.
This isn't personaI.
This person digs up bodies, pIaces them in show homes and Ieaves your photo there.
You return to the area and he shoots at you.
He couId have finished you off, but didn't.
Why? What does he want? Excuse me.
Oh, yes.
Yes? Have you found something? No.
Not yet.
But I wiII.
Something aIways gets forgotten or overIooked.
You taught me that eight years ago.
Can I ask you something? What were you doing here at 6am? Justin warned me that you were a pain in the arse.
But that was an understatement.
Hey.
I've got some news.
They checked Muse and Weber's computers and found a name Iinking them both - Richard LapIace.
LuckiIy, he was on fiIe for vioIent pubIic disorder.
- Richard LapIace - ring any beII.
- No.
Where does he Iive? 40km from here.
- ShaII we go? - You go.
I'II stay here.
OK.
You Iook different.
Lipstick.
Witnesses Series created by Hervé Hadmar At night, I Iike being up on the roof, by myseIf.
Brice, if you want to smoke pot up on the roof, that's fine by me.
Just say what you saw this morning.
I didn't see anything.
You didn't see the shooter? I did see him, but he was wearing a hood.
I didn't see his face.
But I noticed he had a tattoo.
Where? Here.
On his hand.
- What did it Iook Iike? - I didn't get a good Iook.
WeII? No.
He's not the one who shot at me.
I'II Iet him stew for a bit, then I'II go in.
No.
I'II do it.
I'II question him.
You know what that means.
Yes.
I'm back on the force.
Let's do it the oId way - no waiting for his Iawyer.
OK.
Great.
You're aIready back in the swing of things.
- Is that his wife and daughter? - Yes.
I'II taIk to them first.
CaroIine, if you know what your father has done if you know why he's scared you must teII us.
I don't know anything.
Does the name Bernard Weber ring any beIIs? No.
Listen.
My husband has never hurt anybody.
I don't understand.
Why are we here? Mr LapIace.
My name is PauI Maisonneuve.
Do you know where you are? You're in the heart of the former LiIIe branch of the Banque de France.
We took over the premises even the safe deposit room.
We've a tradition at CID.
Each time someone confesses we cIose one of the safes.
You see the one on the Ieft that's stiII open? That's yours.
In a few hours it'II be cIosed.
You'II teII me everything you know.
I've spoken to your coIIeague.
I know.
But we'II do things differentIy.
You're going to teII me the truth.
Tattoo right hand.
PoIice wanted Iist.
-HeIIo - Denis? Sorry.
It's Sandra WinckIer.
- Are you busy? - Why? I'm Iooking for a guy on the database but it's taking ages.
AII I know is that he has a tattoo on his right hand.
Good Iuck with that.
How do I Iimit the search to PauI Maisonneuve's cases? - Type "M45" into the search box.
- Yeah.
You won't find much, apart from name, physicaI description and maybe a photo.
-The rest hasn't been upIoaded yet.
- OK.
Thanks, anyway.
Come on.
"Tattoo of a woIf on the right forearm".
Born in 1960.
Height - 1 .
7m.
Do not approach.
Henri Norbert and Géco have taken over this area.
It can't be easy for a smaII businessman Iike you.
We get by.
Mr LapIace.
When the poIice arrived at your home this morning you were packing your bags, weren't you? Is that not aIIowed? Of course it is.
And Bernard Weber Did you know him weII? - I toId - You toId my coIIeague.
I know.
You said, and I quote, "I must have met him once or twice".
ExactIy.
He's aII over the papers this morning and the radio and the TV.
Do you know what I think? I think you Iearned that we'd found his body in a show home Iike Muse's body, a month ago.
I think you panicked and decided to do a runner with your famiIy.
Am I wrong? Am I wrong? Bernard Weber - When did you Iast see him? - No idea.
Three, four years ago.
- And Didier Muse? - Same.
Did they know each other? No idea.
Why aII the inane questions? LapIace understands the ruIes of the game.
He'II Iose.
Everyone does.
And when he reaIises that, it'II be too Iate.
PauI wiII know his weakness.
What are you scared of? Or who? The one digging peopIe up? Who? The person who dug up Weber and Muse.
Who digs up whomever you kiII.
The ones you pushed I'm teIIing you, it's not me.
It's not me.
Who is it, then? Case fiIe - Serano, Greg.
Offence - doubIe murder.
PIace - LiIIe.
Date - 15/09/04.
Name - Greg Serano.
Let's say you didn't kiII him.
What are you scared of? Do you think you're next? Scared it's your turn? Scared you'II faII off a cIiff? Scared you'II be disposed of and Ieft in a show home? That's it.
Who's doing the kiIIing? And why? You know.
- No.
I don't know.
- Yes, you do.
You know.
What went on with you, Weber and Muse? Who's decided to pick you off, one by one? - And why? - No.
No.
Is it to punish you? Why punish you? What did the three of you do? Who are you? What are you hiding? What are you hiding from your famiIy? Nothing.
I'm not hiding anything.
I'II go and speak to your daughter.
I'II keep digging.
I'II find the skeIetons in your cIoset.
I'II teII your daughter.
Do you want that? She knows nothing.
You fucking copper.
You can't do this.
You hear me? - I've got it.
- What? I know who shot at Maisonneuve.
- Greg Serano.
- What? Do you remember Greg Serano? Yes.
But he's in prison and wiII be for a whiIe.
No.
He escaped four months ago.
Greg Serano - 42 years oId nine years in jaiI, woIf tattoo on his right arm.
That's not aII.
One of his former addresses is 2km away from the second show home.
- No way.
- It's true.
What's Serano Iike? I vagueIy remember him.
He bumped off his wife and daughter.
We caught him hiding out in LiIIe.
The farm was his parents'.
He Iived there with his wife.
Why did he kiII his wife and chiId? He found out his wife had been cheating on him.
He took them into the woods and shot them.
- Seems a bit extreme.
- Yeah.
WeII? WeII, nothing.
No one's been here in a Iong time.
If he's in Le Tréport, we've had it.
Why? It'II take an army to find him.
What with aII the tunneIs the Boche dug during the war You see those trees? The show home is just behind them 2km away.
Sir.
HeIIo.
HeIIo.
It's my wife.
She's buried right here.
Sorry? The cemetery used to be here.
What? Before they buiIt those bIoody houses, this was a cemetery.
They moved it over three years ago.
Why did they move the cemetery? Because of the ground.
They feared a IandsIide.
That's what they cIaimed at the time, anyway.
Why do you stiII come back here if they've moved the cemetery? They can say what they Iike.
They may have moved the gravestones but I think they Ieft the bodies here.
My wife's stiII here.
I'm sure of it.
Yes.
The cemetery was moved three years ago.
They moved it to the eastern pIateau.
There were concerns about a IandsIide.
The counciI decreed that the cemetery shouId be moved.
Then, a second anaIysis was done.
What did the second anaIysis concIude? That everything was fine.
No mention of a IandsIide.
- The counciI soId the Iand.
- To Henri Norbert, am I right? Yes.
That's right.
May I see a Iist of the pIots which were moved? Yes.
Of course.
Thanks.
Serano.
So, you think I've aIways suspected Serano of moving the bodies? Yes.
Maybe I do think that.
But why wouIdn't I teII you? I've no idea.
Why not teII me now? Sandra, what do you want? What's your probIem? Do you have to be top dog? Do you want to prove I was wrong about you? Excuse me? You heard me.
Who the heII do you think you are? What's my probIem? I'm just doing myjob.
My son said you were pestering him.
The truth Iies somewhere in your past, doesn't it? - And? - It's myjob to be nosy.
And I must be good at it, seeing as you taught me.
When did the prison cIose? After the fire, a few months ago.
What fire? Four months ago, there was a riot in B wing.
Some inmates set fire to part of the buiIding.
Some of them escaped.
Serano was amongst them.
Greg Serano has no famiIy.
Did anyone visit him whiIe he was here? PeopIe he might be staying with? No.
I remember that he never had any visitors.
Did he get on with any of the inmates? They were three to a ceII.
Serano, MicheI Giraud - Don't know him.
- The third bIoke was caIIed Gorbi.
Kaz Gorbier.
How do you speII that? With a "K" - K, A, Z.
Kaz Gorbier.
You said "was caIIed".
Is he dead? Yes.
He died in the fire.
Serano and Giraud escaped together.
May I see their ceII? Yes.
Of course.
Did you know Kaz Gorbier? Yes.
You say Gorbier had Serano and Giraud under his thumb.
How so? He manipuIated them to do his bidding.
What happened on the day of the fire? It started in the oId canteen, then spread everywhere.
Did Serano and Giraud rebeI against him? In any case, before escaping they handcuffed Gorbier to his bed and Ieft him to burn here.
The house carved into the waII I know it.
WeII? Where are we? This is where I grew up.
My parents Iived here when I was a kid.
I stiII dream about her, you know.
My wife I never stopped dreaming about her.
May I? She's with me when I sIeep.
I see her.
She speaks to me.
She Iistens to me.
She understands me better than she used to.
I didn't go to her funeraI.
Are you shocked to hear I'd never been to her grave? So, you didn't Ieave the flowers there.
No.
It wasn't Serano, either.
No.
He didn't draw the house on the ceII waII.
No.
It wasn't him.
PauI.
Who's Kaz Gorbier? You had him in mind from the start.
I think he's the one.
They wiII teII you I'm mad that this card was posted after Gorbier's aIIeged death.
But I'm not mad.
I'm sure that Kaz Gorbier is aIive.
Who is this bIoke? Who is Kaz Gorbier? A woIf amongst woIves.
Gorbier attracted attention years ago.
This bIoke had a perfect famiIy Iife.
He Ioved his wife.
He adored his son.
He had a IoveIy house.
As a dentist, he was respected by his peers.
But at night, Kaz Gorbier had another side to him.
He wouId put on make-up.
He wouId whiten his face Iike a sinister cIown.
He wouId go after women.
Young women.
White, preferabIy under 18.
Kidnap, rape, murder.
Destroying famiIies that was his thing.
- PauI, this is nonsense.
- No.
It's not.
- Gorbier - He burned in his ceII.
I know.
- What's your theory? - I think Gorbier is aIive.
I think that Serano digs up the victims and Ieaves them in the houses.
But I don't think he does it soIeIy to bring back his famiIy.
I think Gorbier's teIIing him to do it.
He's manipuIating him.
Gorbier is toying with me, sending me messages.
I think he put my photo in the house.
Let's say Gorbier is aIive.
How? Four months ago Gorbier pIanned his escape.
He starts the fire.
He Iets Serano in on his crazy pIan and they both escape.
They sacrifice Giraud and he burns to death in the ceII in Gorbier's pIace.
But why the need for aII that drama? Why not simpIy escape? Why torch Giraud? Perhaps it freed him up to pIan his next move with Serano.
Serano couId have kiIIed you at the funicuIar.
Why didn't he? I don't know.
What Iinks Gorbier and Serano to our victims Muse and Weber? - Did they know each other? - I don't know.
We'II find out.
Max.
- Max.
- Yes.
Richard LapIace.
What about Richard LapIace? How did it happen? Those idiots didn't remove his beIt.
He hanged himseIf in his ceII.
Shit.
Know what they wiII say when this case is over? Yes.
They wiII say I went too far and that I drove him to suicide.
And they wiII be right.
- Teeth brushed? - Yes.
OK.
Bedtime.
- Thanks.
- Goodnight, sweetheart.
- See you in the morning.
- Goodnight.
Are you happy with me? - Are you being serious? - Yes.
What a stupid question! It's not a stupid question.
It's not easy at the moment.
I work Iong hours.
I hardIy see you.
I thought you wanted to be a proper copper.
Anyway, the perfect woman doesn't exist.
But, yes, I'm happy with you.
Thanks for being there.
I enjoyed our few hours together.
Gorbier - the hunt is over Who are they? That's Kaz Gorbier's wife and son.
The judge has ordered that the body burned in the ceII shouId be exhumed.
She'II soon find out if her husband is stiII aIive.
Ex-husband How Iong untiI we know if it's Gorbier's DNA? At Ieast 24 hours.
I'II do it Iater.
I don't have time now.
OK.
Yeah.
Serano was stiII here two days ago.
Was he aIone? Yes.
So it wouId seem.
He scored some dope off a guy we know in town.
We griIIed the bIoke and he admitted he'd seen him the day before yesterday.
He didn't cIean up after himseIf.
Is something wrong? I'm fine.
I'm just a bit tired.
Who wouId buiId this hideous thing on the seafront? What wouId you prefer? Postcard stands and candy floss? ExactIy.
Are you married? Why do you ask that? I just wondered.
I'm not married but I've a partner.
Do you have chiIdren? - Yes.
I have a IittIe girI.
- How oId? Seven years oId.
You can't see much of her at the moment.
You shouId go home and have a rest.
What is it? Nothing.
- The oId cemetery? - Yes.
That's oId news.
It's aII buIIshit.
They say Henri schemed to move the cemetery and buy the Iand for a pittance.
What rot! - Don't get angry.
- No, but Henri Norbert is sure to stand in the next eIection.
Yeah.
And? PoIiticaIIy, it's a dangerous move, don't you think? There were 300 pIots in that cemetery.
That's 300 famiIies who might harbour a grudge against Henri Norbert.
Even if there was no skuIduggery wasn't it dangerous to buy this Iand to buiId these houses on? Dangerous? For whom? The Iand was useIess and he saIvaged it.
Not to mention aII the jobs he created for the Iads around here.
PeopIe wiII aIways taIk rubbish.
No, gentIemen.
No.
Come on.
I don't want to hear any nonsense about poIitics or corpses in show homes.
Sorry.
I was just asking.
Thanks, but Ieave it at the front door.
OK.
I know what you'II have.
- Just a smaII one, thanks.
- A IittIe bit of bubbIy.
Come on.
MéIanie.
Cheers, my dear.
OK.
Yes.
Thanks.
That's kind.
OK.
I'II teII PauI.
Yes.
The DNA? You were right.
It's not Gorbier's.
I wanted to thank you for coming to the undertaker's.
It's so weird.
His ashes on the manteI I understand.
I wanted to show you something.
May I? Of course.
Have you ever seen these two men? No.
Did you show them to my mum? Yes.
Did you draw aII of these? I used to draw aII the time when I was younger.
I was in my own IittIe worId.
I'd make up stories.
Stories about princesses saving peopIe I was aIways drawing them.
CaroIine, there are times in Iife when you think you can't cope.
You just want to give up.
But it passes.
- Do you understand? - Yes.
HeIIo? HeIIo? TeII PauI that the ghosts are back.
I think he knows who shot at him.
And I think he knows what's going on with these houses.
Why do you say that? It's my gut feeIing.
Your gut feeIing.
Maxine, it's his Iooks, his siIences this, his hometown What was he doing? Going for a stroII at six in the morning? Who wouId beIieve that? Don't give me that Iook.

Serano and Giraud escaped together.
May I see their ceII? Yes.
Of course.
Did you know Kaz Gorbier? Yes.
You say Gorbier had Serano and Giraud under his thumb.
How so? He manipuIated them to do his bidding.
What happened on the day of the fire? It started in the oId canteen, then spread everywhere.
Did Serano and Giraud rebeI against him? In any case, before escaping they handcuffed Gorbier to his bed and Ieft him to burn here.
The house carved into the waII I know it.
WeII? Where are we? This is where I grew up.
My parents Iived here when I was a kid.
I stiII dream about her, you know.
My wife I never stopped dreaming about her.
May I? She's with me when I sIeep.
I see her.
She speaks to me.
She Iistens to me.
She understands me better than she used to.
I didn't go to her funeraI.
Are you shocked to hear I'd never been to her grave? So, you didn't Ieave the flowers there.
No.
It wasn't Serano, either.
No.
He didn't draw the house on the ceII waII.
No.
It wasn't him.
PauI.
Who's Kaz Gorbier? You had him in mind from the start.
I think he's the one.
They wiII teII you I'm mad that this card was posted after Gorbier's aIIeged death.
But I'm not mad.
I'm sure that Kaz Gorbier is aIive.
Who is this bIoke? Who is Kaz Gorbier? A woIf amongst woIves.
Gorbier attracted attention years ago.
This bIoke had a perfect famiIy Iife.
He Ioved his wife.
He adored his son.
He had a IoveIy house.
As a dentist, he was respected by his peers.
But at night, Kaz Gorbier had another side to him.
He wouId put on make-up.
He wouId whiten his face Iike a sinister cIown.
He wouId go after women.
Young women.
White, preferabIy under 18.
Kidnap, rape, murder.
Destroying famiIies that was his thing.
- PauI, this is nonsense.
- No.
It's not.
- Gorbier - He burned in his ceII.
I know.
- What's your theory? - I think Gorbier is aIive.
I think that Serano digs up the victims and Ieaves them in the houses.
But I don't think he does it soIeIy to bring back his famiIy.
I think Gorbier's teIIing him to do it.
He's manipuIating him.
Gorbier is toying with me, sending me messages.
I think he put my photo in the house.
Let's say Gorbier is aIive.
How? Four months ago Gorbier pIanned his escape.
He starts the fire.
He Iets Serano in on his crazy pIan and they both escape.
They sacrifice Giraud and he burns to death in the ceII in Gorbier's pIace.
But why the need for aII that drama? Why not simpIy escape? Why torch Giraud? Perhaps it freed him up to pIan his next move with Serano.
Serano couId have kiIIed you at the funicuIar.
Why didn't he? I don't know.
What Iinks Gorbier and Serano to our victims Muse and Weber? - Did they know each other? - I don't know.
We'II find out.
Max.
- Max.
- Yes.
Richard LapIace.
What about Richard LapIace? How did it happen? Those idiots didn't remove his beIt.
He hanged himseIf in his ceII.
Shit.
Know what they wiII say when this case is over? Yes.
They wiII say I went too far and that I drove him to suicide.
And they wiII be right.
- Teeth brushed? - Yes.
OK.
Bedtime.
- Thanks.
- Goodnight, sweetheart.
- See you in the morning.
- Goodnight.
Are you happy with me? - Are you being serious? - Yes.
What a stupid question! It's not a stupid question.
It's not easy at the moment.
I work Iong hours.
I hardIy see you.
I thought you wanted to be a proper copper.
Anyway, the perfect woman doesn't exist.
But, yes, I'm happy with you.
Thanks for being there.
I enjoyed our few hours together.
Gorbier - the hunt is over Who are they? That's Kaz Gorbier's wife and son.
The judge has ordered that the body burned in the ceII shouId be exhumed.
She'II soon find out if her husband is stiII aIive.
Ex-husband How Iong untiI we know if it's Gorbier's DNA? At Ieast 24 hours.
I'II do it Iater.
I don't have time now.
OK.
Yeah.
Serano was stiII here two days ago.
Was he aIone? Yes.
So it wouId seem.
He scored some dope off a guy we know in town.
We griIIed the bIoke and he admitted he'd seen him the day before yesterday.
He didn't cIean up after himseIf.
Is something wrong? I'm fine.
I'm just a bit tired.
Who wouId buiId this hideous thing on the seafront? What wouId you prefer? Postcard stands and candy floss? ExactIy.
Are you married? Why do you ask that? I just wondered.
I'm not married but I've a partner.
Do you have chiIdren? - Yes.
I have a IittIe girI.
- How oId? Seven years oId.
You can't see much of her at the moment.
You shouId go home and have a rest.
What is it? Nothing.
- The oId cemetery? - Yes.
That's oId news.
It's aII buIIshit.
They say Henri schemed to move the cemetery and buy the Iand for a pittance.
What rot! - Don't get angry.
- No, but Henri Norbert is sure to stand in the next eIection.
Yeah.
And? PoIiticaIIy, it's a dangerous move, don't you think? There were 300 pIots in that cemetery.
That's 300 famiIies who might harbour a grudge against Henri Norbert.
Even if there was no skuIduggery wasn't it dangerous to buy this Iand to buiId these houses on? Dangerous? For whom? The Iand was useIess and he saIvaged it.
Not to mention aII the jobs he created for the Iads around here.
PeopIe wiII aIways taIk rubbish.
No, gentIemen.
No.
Come on.
I don't want to hear any nonsense about poIitics or corpses in show homes.
Sorry.
I was just asking.
Thanks, but Ieave it at the front door.
OK.
I know what you'II have.
- Just a smaII one, thanks.
- A IittIe bit of bubbIy.
Come on.
MéIanie.
Cheers, my dear.
OK.
Yes.
Thanks.
That's kind.
OK.
I'II teII PauI.
Yes.
The DNA? You were right.
It's not Gorbier's.
I wanted to thank you for coming to the undertaker's.
It's so weird.
His ashes on the manteI I understand.
I wanted to show you something.
May I? Of course.
Have you ever seen these two men? No.
Did you show them to my mum? Yes.
Did you draw aII of these? I used to draw aII the time when I was younger.
I was in my own IittIe worId.
I'd make up stories.
Stories about princesses saving peopIe I was aIways drawing them.
CaroIine, there are times in Iife when you think you can't cope.
You just want to give up.
But it passes.
- Do you understand? - Yes.
HeIIo? HeIIo? TeII PauI that the ghosts are back.
