Episode 7

Synced and typed by chamallow There it is.
The customs boat is in sight.
They're heading for the Sarajevo, as planned.
Look like everything is on track.
They're approaching the cargo ship.
It won't be much longer now.
Get ready.
In two minutes, they'll inspect the Sarajevo.
Once I have pictures, I'll send them.
Go on, you can get things started.
What are you afraid of, Suleiman? I'm not too fond of this kind of men in my house.
I'm not too fond of being killed either.
But such things happen.
The main option is, that we go and do the transaction, at the point where François Paoli's tragic death interrupted it.
I hope you see things that way.
It would be a shame not to take advantage of such a simple exchange.
International commerce has always been quesiton of simply exchange, Miss Paoli.
It works as a basis of product, clarity and local demand.
However, you're young, and my partners are suspicious of you.
Stop that bullshit.
You're perfectly right, of course.
But the question must be asked.
Does Miss Paoli have the means to satisfy her ambitions? I have the means.
In less than 24 hours, this cargo will be in my hands.
Sarajevo, Sarajevo, Sarajevo.
.
Customs' boat Mauve, do you read me? Over.
Mauve, Sarajevo, reading you loud and clear.
We're clearing channel 10, that's 2 x 5.
OK, channel 10.
Turn off your engines, we're carrying out an inspection.
Bring your crew up onto the deck.
Received loud and clear.
I'm the captain.
Stay calm.
Open the containers.
A Stinger.
The type of weapon that can take down a 747.
Sewing machines.
From the East.
I didn't inspect all this! - I can explain.
- Explain what? You and your crew are under arrest.
We're taking control of this ship I have the means.
But you, Mr.
Suleiman, how can I trust you? You bring the cargo.
My experts will examine it.
48 hours later, we'll carry out the exchange.
My heroin for your weapons.
And everyone leaves as happy.
48 hours? Correct.
I'd like to try a sample.
Deal.
OK.
Sandra! Are you OK? All this for someone not even born yet You get fussed over, too.
Go on, have fun.
Your wife looks beautiful.
Very beautiful.
It's great having the whole family round.
A salute.
Everything's going to plan.
And you? Same here.
I hope so.
What does that mean? It means, I hope so.
What's wrong? Is Marie-Luce bothering you? Come here, Santoni.
Isn't it a beautiful kid, uh? Why are you so upset, dear? It's already all about him - Look at that! - Look! You're going to have a baby brother.
Come on.
He's not even born yet.
Not exactly promising! So, when is it your turn? Oh, come on.
Not yet, we have time.
Go on, have fun! Today's a celebration.
We can't let things get out of hand.
You're saying Suzanne gave them the voting records? Yes, it was Suzanne.
The police carried out a search.
A search? Why? To get hold of the electoral records.
If Santa-Castella goes down, so do I.
We all do.
Call your son.
What's happening? TOWN HALL It's kicking off from all sides.
They're still coming from all over.
- They have the records.
- Yes, she handed the records over to them.
What could she do? The police had a court order! - Will I go to prison? - Shut up! The guys are fired up.
It's getting out of control.
I'll tell the Mayor to call you back.
It's Simon! Simon, let me speak to Zamponi.
- Hurry up! - Yes? They've got the electoral records.
Can't you do anything? They've put us in custody.
What? We're in custody! Hello? Hello? What is it? Bianchini's son just called.
Dominique? Why? The cops are in Santa-Castella.
They've searched the town hall.
And? Bartoli called a few guys.
They came straight away, and the police are locked in.
Someone's interested in the records.
The records? The electoral records.
Who gave them these records? That idiot secretary, Suzanne Colonna.
Suzanne Colonna? Why? Do you know her? We must stop this at all costs.
If not, I'll lose the majority at the Council, and our collaboration is over.
You're boring me, Zamponi.
Get me a drink.
Make yourself useful.
Go.
So, you know Suzanne? Of course, she was my school teacher.
She was completely mad but everyone listened to her like she was the Virgin Mary.
Stop giving Zamponi a hard time.
The records scandal had to come to a head one day Politics is a shitty business.
I've got a job on.
A big job.
Drugs? François? I've always told him never to get involved in that.
You know, my dear I'm tired.
I know.
Your brother, Jean-Michel He has the mind of a child.
He's strong and brave, with big muscles But he has the heart and mind of a child.
It's up to you to protect him now.
It's your job.
I want to go back home now.
Legionnaire Andrea Jancovic.
Second battalion, third company.
What are you up to these days? You know what half-pay is like.
Since the big guys kicked me out it's been hell without a job.
It'd be great to chat if you have five minutes.
Whenever you want, Janco.
What's wrong? Why's he leaving so soon? He hasn't been well lately.
He still hasn't recovered from François' death.
Don't worry, - We'll visit him a lot - Yes? OK.
See you later.
Shall we go? The Sarajevo is heading to Bastia, escorted by a customs boat.
Sandra, if I leave now, Marie-Luce will kill me.
You'd rather I killed you? Come on.
I'll just get changed, OK? Bro, how is it going? Not bad.
Come up, I'll let you in.
My boys are ready.
I've worked the docks for 15 years.
When I give my word, I keep it.
Especially when I give it to Jean-Michel Paoli! How long do we need to stall this ship? 12 hours would be perfect.
That should be fine.
With what's happening in Santa-Castella, the cops will be busy elsewhere.
Two policemen and an officer from the Specialist Crime Division are being held hostage behind me.
Here in the Santa-Castella town hall, they came to carry out a search following orders from the Bastia Prosecution Office.
There are suggestions of electoral fraud hanging over the last local election results.
Following the seizure of the electoral records, tensions rose and things turned ugly, which led to the current, more explosive, situation.
What advice would you offer to the French state? No advice.
I am warning the authorities of the ever-present risk of complete social disorder.
- I'd like to - Colonial bastards! This type of situation can easily get out of control.
The Corsican people can't be treated like inner-city Arabs That's a red card right there! Let's go.
Did you hear Zamponi's blunder? "Inner-city Arabs"? Yes.
Why didn't the interview stop there? Is that a serious question? No.
I think what is happening in Santa-Castella provides the perfect opportunity for us to get a certain ball rolling.
We're holding a crisis meeting at the Council Offices.
Perhaps you would like to join us? Great.
I'm sorry, sir, I did what I could.
But these people refuse to see reason.
NO CHINKS ON OUR DOCKS Bring me the ringleader.
I have a vessel to unload.
I don't think that will be possible.
If we start making exceptions It's not about "exceptions".
You're impeding the smooth running of justice.
I agree with you.
But without social justice, how can we believe in justice at all? I'm ordering you to unload this vessel! And renounce our right to strike? That's a serious order.
Call the Maritime Police.
I require the intervention of the public force.
I've already called.
The police chief said a simple stationary barrier would do the job of protecting the ship.
Are you screwing me around? Not a chance 10 additional teams are en-route to Santa-Castella.
Over.
We're trapped in Santa-Castella town hall.
Too many demonstrators.
Without backup, we can't get out! The demonstrators control all the exits, we're surrounded.
Thank you for joining us.
I know you're very busy.
Prefect, you know maître Paoli.
She's from one of the oldest families on the island.
A pleasure.
Good stock, but what happened with your friend, Zamponi? Zamponi is no more my friend than yours, Prefect.
With that comment, "Inner-city Arabs" Zamponi has lost all sense of judgment.
Can I smoke in here? Goodbye.
See you soon.
What do you want from me? We want you to mediate.
Mediate in this whole embarrassing affair.
Santa-Castella It's almost your turf, right? Don't let anyone enter even if they try to force their way in.
OK, for the cause! - Will you be able to get in? - Of course.
Why are you here, Dominique? You're not helping Zamponi out.
Help Zamponi out? I'd rather die! Go on! - Well? - Well, what? The comrades won't let the colonialists do what they want.
Zamponi is what he is, but he is Corsican.
That's all the comrades see.
Corsicans being humiliated by colonialists Help me get Suzanne out.
There is no point keeping her.
They aren't keen on releasing people I need a pledge of sincerity in order to negotiate.
Make it clear you're participating, but you don't approve.
At least, not of everything.
When you're ready, we'll take you in via the school.
- And you are? - Maître Paoli.
OK, let's go! Stay back! Down with the colonialist State! I'm Suzanne Colonna's lawyer.
Where is she? No need to get on your high horse! So, Mister Mayor, those poor bedridden souls at the retirement home decided, following a mass escape, to vote on the same day for the same candidate? In the village, they don't change their minds much.
They had the same teacher, their writing looks similar.
That's pretty normal, isn't it? Of course, of course Your client is over there.
- Suzanne.
- Sandra, I'm so glad to see you.
- Will I go to prison? - Prison? - Because of the records.
- No Come on.
We'll take care of you.
Hey! Get in.
The police use new techniques now.
Techniques which allow us to take fingerprints from the victim's skin.
It takes a long time and it's expensive, but it works.
Those are the prints we took from you in prison.
What do you want from me? I have a job for you.
It's suited to your skills.
Two people.
One man, one woman.
They have a job to do.
Wait for them to finish then kill them.
Both of them.
Why would I do that? Because otherwise, you're the one who dies.
So what happened to your master plan? - He won't come - Don't start.
It was meant to be double this! You'll get the rest on completion.
Who is it? That will cost way more.
OK.
Where and when? Hyacinthe, to your right! I shouldn't hold it against you, Janco.
I suppose you didn't have a choice.
A choice? There's always a choice.
We had been monitoring you all evening.
From the moment you left behind her.
Hands on the wheel.
We were meant to beat you then shoot you.
And you only did the bare minimum.
Yes, the bare minimum.
Wasn't it strange that a guy with a gun to your head missed At point-blank range? Thank you.
Who sent you, Janco? Rocca.
Is this a settling of scores or a new clan war? Another boss from Bastia Any problems? has been assassinated this evening.
It was Hyacinthe Léandri who many consider the last active godfather of the Corsican mafia This is too much.
I can't deal with it.
Take a rest, honey.
OK.
Captain, what happened exactly? It seems we're dealing with a sophisticated operation, since, according to our sources, there was a third killer in place to prevent any possible escape by Léandri.
And is the identity of this third killer known? We have some strong evidence and we are pursuing leads.
According to unofficial sources, this third man is Rémi Andreani, a character well-known to the police.
Because otherwise, you're the one who dies.
I still don't know what came over me this morning.
Why did I go to collect the records? What would you have done in my place? I don't know.
I knew what was going on.
People signed on behalf of others.
Had this been going on long? Yes, for years, with all the dead people voting.
Even my mother.
I realised she was voting 10 years after she died.
They did that to your mother? My own mother, yes.
I also had a sister.
She was called Adélaïde.
Because she was born in Australia.
She died in 1960.
In a way, it was comforting that they were still voting.
It's as if they were still alive.
- Yes? - Sandra What's going on? I'm on my way.
What was Andreani doing? How would I know? - I'm not his father.
- Thankfully! What do you mean, "thankfully"? Go find him! I want to know what's happening! What's wrong with you? What have I done? - Is it because of the baby? - What? I don't give a shit about your baby! You don't give a shit or you're mad you can't have one? If you push my buttons, I'll fight! Do you think it's easy? Do you think what I do is easy? Let's not go there, Sandra.
It's not a good idea.
It something comes between us, we're dead.
We have to stick together.
Like an old, loveless marriage! Were you involved with Léandri? No, I wasn't.
Even so, everyone knows Andreani is basically one of us.
Isn't that why we let him live? So? We're gonna get blamed.
Where's your wife? - And Carmen? - They're here.
You got enough guys to protect them? Is it that bad? Yes, I've got enough.
OK Zamponi is on his way out.
Saint Suzanne will help me bring him to his knees.
Your old school teacher? I thought you liked her.
I do like her.
So? Yes? We're on our way.
We have to go.
Go on your own.
I have a meeting.
- Stop! - Don't move! Put your gun on the ground.
Against the wall! Quick! Against the wall! Don't move! - How are you? - It's all done.
No problems? No, it was easy, just one customs officer.
Cheers! Here's the situation.
American clientele desperately need heroin.
European clientele desperately need cocaine.
And players from the Axis of Evil desperately need weapons.
Which explains why some criminals thought up the idea of exchanging arms originating from the former Soviet bloc, for top-quality heroin from Afghan opium poppy fields, and then in turn exchanging this heroin for Colombian cocaine.
François Paoli undoubtedly had the most imaginative mind, and was the last great godfather of the Corsican mafia.
His disappearance has left turmoil in the Corsican criminal underworld.
Even more dangerous is the head of this mafia web, Sandra Paoli.
The current operation is destined to bring about her downfall.
How reliable are your sources? Sophisticated bugging devices, a rigorous analysis of information from the field, and a long cross-referencing job.
in collaboration with our French counterparts.
I'm surprised by the absence of Commissioner Rocca.
I'm also surprised.
Was he voluntarily uninvited? One thing is certain.
The Paoli clan have taken the bait.
Briefing over.
The deal is good.
Perfect.
Your boss isn't here? Tell her we will respect the schedule.
There's trust for you! Trust is better than having regrets.
And you know what? If you're not happy, never mind.
We'll walk you to your car.
It's round the wrong way Calm down.
Turn it around.
- Yes? - It's done.
The containers have been stashed.
We're on our way back.
Nice work you've been doing You're not lacking in guts.
You're certainly not lacking in skill.
I have a problem with Santa-Castella.
I've acted normally, but I feel that the situation's getting out of hand or I've lost my grip You've lost your grip.
You were with the Prefect today, I wasn't.
You managed to free Suzanne Colonna, I didn't.
You are in direct contact with the hostage takers, I'm not.
You make some serious gaffes.
I don't.
What do you want from me, Zamponi? I want you to use your connections to calm things down.
And in return? I would like to call on your connections.
I'd like a small explosive device to damage Suzanne Colonna's door.
No deaths or injuries.
I just want a martyr to emerge.
Your mother is missing! What? Is everything OK? How's the little one? Jean-Michel, it's me.
She's gone missing.
Who? Mom.
Are you at the house? I'm on my way.
What's wrong? It's my mother.
- What? - She's gone missing.
That's the first time I've heard you call her that! I won't be long.
She wouldn't be able to get through that gate Sandra, we've found her.
She wanted to go to François' grave? What's she doing there? Why on Uncle's grave? Yes? I've fulfilled my side of the deal.
- Now, it's your turn.
- I'm dealing with it.
- Bartoli? - Yes? I met our friend.
We found common ground.
Good.
Everyone seems to be in favour of an honorable surrender.
It'd be best not to delay things.
People need to know.
I'll inform the press.
SUZANNE COLONNA! SHAME ON YOU! This aggression is an intolerable attack on the integrity of an honest woman.
Every town, every village, every town hall should have a woman with Suzanne's fortitude, so that no more elections in Corsica are rigged.
The contentious electoral records which sparked these troubles will be handed back to the Ministry of Justice.
We hope that the authorities show the same courage, responsibility and dignity so as to preserve and guarantee peace, to which every Corsican has the right.
Finally and on another note On the way here, I made a decision.
A decision which seemed so obvious, something carefully thought out, natural and irrevocable.
It's time to use my experience for the benefit of others.
My experience, energy and abilities.
My dear friends, you shall be the first to know, as I announce this news.
I've made the decision to stand as a candidate in the local elections in Santa-Castella.
