Subteran (2025) s01e02 Episode Script

1
Luca.
I really think we complete each other,
you know?
DADDY
- How you doin'?
- Um…
Look, I've been thinking about it,
and I'm really, really grateful
for all of your help,
but my son needs me. I have to go.
- You can't.
- How can--
If you leave here, you'll be killed
and put him in danger.
It's dangerous for all of us.
Hello, sir.
Sir, could you tell us,
is there any connection
between this grisly scene
and yesterday's murders?
Has the police force
identified the victim?
- Step aside.
- Can you give us more details?
- Good morning.
- Good morning.
Cristescu. We've got a license plate.
- The VIN number.
- Swallow that.
We already ran everything.
Belongs to a Camelia Serbu.
- Camelia Serbu?
- Mm-hmm.
We just spoke to her.
That might've been your last opportunity.
Got a body for you over here.
Guys, clear the area, please. Thanks.
God have mercy on her.
Crisi, she's not answering.
Could be busy planning your party?
Being a good daddy's girl.
She's acting like it's my last one.
You think it's my last birthday?
If you're a good boy and you stay sober
and don't let your anger or stress
get too out of hand,
you might have a couple more.
I made her get you nonalcoholic champagne,
but I can feel it.
You're gonna hear from the hospital.
- Your horoscope looks great.
- Oh yeah? What's it say?
That the sun is in conjunction
with Saturn currently.
- That good?
- Mm-hmm.
It's another hundred
if you want me to translate that.
Okay.
BOSS
- Happy birthday, sir.
- Yeah, yeah. Cut the shit.
Get off your ass
and come down to the office. Now.
- Mm-hmm.
- Lars already called me and ruined my day.
- Mm-hmm.
- I need to know how much money we have.
And find out where the hell Crisi is.
I wanna make sure
everything is ready for tonight.
- So get your ass down here.
- I'll be right there.
We need to get that laptop back
right away.
Yeah, I know.
I'm thinking.
- What's that?
- It's from Claw.
He left a letter saying
it's to cut down your enemies.
Jesus Christ.
What are you, an eight-year-old boy?
Out of the way.
Bank, fuck your stupid crypto bullshit.
Now die, you stupid little bitch.
Come on.
- I have a TV.
- Oh, great.
I don't know if I still have cable though.
Internet?
Going online could show them you're alive.
I'll be back tonight.
Wait. So what's the plan?
Well, okay,
outside of keeping me locked up.
- What if someone comes to the door?
- I'm not a friendly dude.
No one visits me.
Surprising.
I'm trusting you to stay here.
- For your sake and Matei's.
- I don't wanna stay here.
I'll be back soon as I can.
Wait!
How the hell do you know Matei's name?!
Hey! Someone help!
Oh.
Easy. Easy.
Grab the legs. Be careful.
So we have Camelia Serbu.
No prior record.
We're talking
not even a traffic violation.
Her dad was a cop.
She works in IT.
Something about cybersecurity.
Get off that damn phone for once.
Let's use our brain.
Let's assume it's somehow
connected to Luca's death, right?
I'm wondering
if she was a civilian casualty
or were the two of them in on it?
Let's figure out what Luca was doing.
Was he working to bring down Tănase
or help the guy?
We know Luca's shooter was a woman,
and we've got two women
that we can't track down right now.
His girlfriend and his killer.
And a corpse, possibly a woman,
completely burnt to a crisp.
Forensics is doing their best,
but it'll take a while,
so we can't be sure of anything.
We have no idea
if someone murdered Serbu,
so right now, we're dealing
with a missing-persons case.
And where does
a missing-person investigation start?
- In the victim's home.
- Well? Go.
- Do you like it?
- Gonna cut the cake with that?
A present from Claw's guys.
Send it back
and tell him he can go fuck himself.
I don't need a sword. I'm not eight.
I want actions, not presents.
What about the money?
They're all out collecting debts
and making coin,
and they'll deliver it
to Florin daily now.
Lars is coming for his two million euros
in five days.
Are those whores
suddenly pulling in 400K a day for us?
What's the situation
with The Bank's computer?
- That fucking prick.
- Workin' on it.
Hey!
You break it,
you're fuckin' payin' for it!
Where the hell is my daughter?
Crisi would never just disappear.
It's my birthday.
What's up, guys? Countin' away, huh?
- Hey, man.
- What's up?
There you are.
- What's up, dude?
- Little somethin'.
Are you fuckin' crazy?
You wanted it. Your bro's gotcha, man.
Yo, move over.
- It's the real deal?
- Yeah, man.
Stole it off this singer.
Hey. Check it out.
- Nice. Way to go, man.
- Fuck yeah, it's nice.
- Nah, it's Chinese, but you wouldn't know.
- Hey, that works too.
Man, what's up with all this?
This for the gas bill or what?
Money makes the world go round, right?
They're losin' their shit for real.
You should go shake down
anyone who owes you money.
Dracu's all up on our dicks.
Okay, but for real through.
We buyin' Facebook or…
Uh, Tănase's workin' on somethin' big.
Like, how big? What's he buying?
Like he'd tell me.
Yes.
Yes. Yes.
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
Fuck.
Fuck.
Pss-pss-pss-pss!
Hey.
What's goin' on?
What you doin' in here?
Hi there.
What's up, little guy?
Here! Come here.
Aw. There you go.
Oh. Hold on.
What's your name, little buddy?
Hey.
Wanna stay with me?
Hmm.
Here we go.
- Afternoon.
- Hello.
Golescu, chief prosecutor.
This is Chief Detective Tatu.
Tell me Cami's all right.
Why don't we sit down?
Yesterday she went to give a statement
at the police station,
and after that, she said
she was going to Luca's apartment.
Have some, please.
I know she's pulled
a few overnighters at work,
but she'd always make sure
to call Matei to say good night.
We found Cami's vehicle.
You did? Where?
In the old train depot.
Two hundred gigs.
No.
Fuck.
When you last saw her,
was she acting nervous?
Uh… Did she seem
like she was maybe a bit off?
No, other than
still being shaken up of course.
Is it possible she went over
to Luca's to see someone?
No clue. I don't remember.
Just a second.
- This urgent?
- Well, that depends.
- I found something.
- What kind of something?
The kinda something
you need to see and then, uh…
think really hard
whether anyone else should.
All right.
I've got a meeting.
You stay here and finish talking
to Ms. Serbu.
Verify if that was Camelia's,
and get a DNA sample.
Then make your way over to Luca's.
With any luck,
she spent the night over there.
Ah ♪
You layin' out gettin' a fuckin' tan,
dude?
Get your ass inside. Start counting.
You takin' a sick day or somethin'?
Get out there.
Yeah.
- Where you goin'?
- Bathroom?
Piss your pants.
Get your ass back to counting.
- Whatcha got for me?
- A million, roughly.
Dude, we need ten times more than that.
What the fuck?!
Quit snortin' shit and get back out there.
Do what it takes to get us our money.
Florin, I want every dime accounted for.
You got that?
Like a goddamn accountant.
Mr. Chief Prosecutor,
is there any connection
between this and yesterday's murders
at the hotel?
It's rather early for any speculation
on if there's a connection between them.
- Well there is, so…
- Do you have any suspects?
We're still gathering evidence
in that investigation.
How about the security footage?
Right. Yeah.
As I said,
the investigation is still ongoing.
We'll hold an official press conference…
What about the woman I told you about?
I described her.
She was caught on camera.
Well, as you can see, at this time,
we don't have any new information for you.
Police have been extremely tight lipped…
Kicking' back with some TV?
A stressful day?
No. Just seeing what's goin' on--
See what's goin' on with that laptop,
all right?
You fucked us royally when you told Tănase
not to make the call to get it, so fix it.
- Yeah, workin' on it.
- Don't fuckin' bullshit me.
You have till morning,
and then if the boss doesn't kill you,
you can bet he'll have me do it.
Oh, and he also wants me to find Crisi.
Anyone know
where Daddy's little princess is at?
Bones!
You took her to that cop's apartment.
You saw her last.
And now she's not answering her phone.
We didn't find anything.
No computer
or any real connection with The Bank,
and the cops already went there.
I asked her if she wanted me
to drop her off,
but she said she's meeting a priest
or something.
Was it a priest she said or Padre?
Yeah, she said Padre. Who's that?
The guy that helps us with the funerals.
We'll keep you updated
as this story develops.
Thank you, Claudiu, for that
interview with Chief Prosecutor Golescu.
As he said, police are still
in the early stage of their investigation,
so there's nothing new
to report at this time,
but stay tuned for new developments
in this case.
Or technically cases as this is one
of at least three dead bodies uncovered
within the last 48 hours in Bucharest.
God, our lord and savior,
you who are the way,
the truth, and the life,
please bestow your blessing
upon the car of your servants
Titi and Nicole.
Provide them the protection
of your guardian angels so that…
Hold this.
What, you're out here
blessing used cars now?
Well, we do what we can, my son. We…
- I was told Crisi came to you.
- She did.
Uh, the only one in her family who comes
since the death of her poor mother.
- You could come more often as well.
- Father, look, I'm not family.
When did she come here?
There. She brought this painting
for me to bless a few days ago.
She said she'd come get it last night,
but then she never did.
She told me it was a present
for her father's birthday.
Ah, may God keep Mr. Tănase
in good health.
I'll take it from you.
It's from both his daughters.
Of course.
And light a candle for me.
For the living.
Oh, cut that shit out.
I can't believe my sister
went all God fearing.
I mean, hey, at least one of you
is afraid of something.
Where could she be?
One of our guys went with her
to that dead cop's apartment.
After that, radio silence.
- Went with who?
- This Bones guy.
- You can trust him.
- You can't trust anybody these days.
Except for the old guys
from my dad's generation.
- These young guys'll sell you for a dime.
- I'll question him again.
Let's go to the apartment, okay?
Have a look. Might find something.
Wow, from the precinct
to a five-star hotel, huh?
Sure, but my heart
will always be with you at the precinct.
Come get it. We already got
too many bleeding hearts.
Oh, Jesus.
- Hit me.
- It's a clip.
Filmed by some hotel employee
the night of the murder.
Right after the alarm went off.
She was filming the evacuation,
and we catch this guy leaving the floor.
Play that again, okay?
Stop.
Not a guest. Know who he is?
I checked the CCTV. Couldn't find him.
No, but keep trying
to get a clearer picture.
Can I help you find something?
Yeah, actually. I need something
for a woman that, uh…
is wanting to shake up her whole look,
feel like a new person.
What's she like look now?
She's got, um, you know, brown hair
or… something.
There.
Well, here's cheers to me, I guess.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Five hundred for your trouble.
Oh!
Oh! Fuck! Ugh!
This guy had no life, dude.
Look at this. He was dirt poor.
ROMANIAN POLICE
He seemed happy,
so that's what really mattered.
Oh yeah, really living the dream.
Well, not living anything
now that you shot him.
Do you feel happy?
- Where'd that come from?
- Well, you're going on about happiness.
Just wondered if you were happy.
I don't know. As much as anyone.
Whenever a woman asks you if you're happy,
you say yes, you fuck-up.
I'll be sure to tell the prosecutor. Yeah.
Appreciate it.
Ms. Serbu?
Camelia Serbu?
I'm with the police.
Is anybody home?
Ms. Serbu?
Boss.
Have you looked at Voinea's apartment,
or are you just raiding the fridge?
I'm in here now, yeah.
No sign of his girlfriend,
but looks like she was here.
I just got off with the coroner.
He has some news.
What is it?
The body in the trunk
is definitely a female.
- And?
- It was burnt to a crisp.
Not much else to go on.
Hey, was there a rug here
when the forensics team came?
Why?
Looks like something happened here
after the team did their sweep
of the place.
I mean,
we're talking pieces of broken glass,
and now the rug's disappeared.
And a bullet hole in the wall.
Judging by the angle,
it seems that there was a fight.
Know if our burnt body in the trunk
had any bullet wounds?
Well, have you tried
asking your friend the coroner?
You've just had maybes all day.
Give me something concrete.
Maybe check if they found
any rug fibers in the burnt car.
- And call forensics back in.
- Yeah, I'm on it.
Let's go talk to this Bones person.
Right now.
So? You like spying on me naked? Huh?
Ah.
How'd you do that?
Maybe don't leave me here
with laptop access, you idiot!
And while we're at it, don't leave me
here with dismembered body parts either.
Are you completely batshit?!
Six months ago,
Tănase killed someone.
He wanted to have the body
chopped up after.
I helped him get rid of it.
Okay? And you saw it
and kept the hand as a souvenir?
No, I kept it because the nails
contained Tănase's DNA.
- Why haven't you brought it to the cops?
- Can't do that.
Not right now.
I'm gonna need way more evidence.
I wanna give them
a foolproof open-shut case.
If not, he walks,
and I won't let that happen.
Luca wouldn't have either.
Speaking of Luca,
do you realize how insanely creepy it is
to wake up as a prisoner
in some random guy's apartment
and find a laptop loaded with pictures
of you and your whole family?
- Yes, I know it looks weird, but it's--
- It's not weird. Course not.
It's normal. It's not what it looks like.
Isn't that right… Officer Marius Roman?
TIMIŞOARA POLICE ACADEMY
CLASS OF 2009
I know you went through the place already,
but something happened
after you were there.
Exactly.
Ionuţ, what's Bones's address?
Last year, I went undercover
in Tănase's organization.
He had a lot of crooked cops
on his payroll,
so there are only two of us
who know about the operation.
My contact and myself.
I don't need your sob story here.
I just wanna know, why Luca?
Why he had to die.
I played cards with Tănase's money guy,
a gambler.
I could tell he was drowning in debt.
He was in too deep.
He wanted a way out.
So at that point,
I just needed a cop I could trust
so I could deliver him.
And I found Luca.
I vetted the guy, and he came back clean.
- Did he know that you were…
- No.
He didn't know about my cover.
Just that we had the same end goal,
to bring down Tănase.
Only he brought you down first.
Nothing'll happen to you,
I promise.
Let me show you something.
Okay.
Where is she?
Bones, right?
We haven't met before. I'm Tili.
- Tili Tănase.
- Ah, you're twins. Course you are.
Nice to meet you, Tili.
- Where is she?
- Who?
Take a fucking guess, dude.
Crisi. She here?
Why would she be here?
- What went down at the cop's place?
- Wait, wait, wait, wait.
Okay. Chill out, man.
Crisi asked me to keep it secret.
That cop's girlfriend showed up
while we were at the apartment.
Hurry it up.
Said she recognized her,
that she shot her boyfriend.
- How the fuck would she know that?
- I have no idea. Crisi shot her.
We couldn't really go into depth.
- Who knew?
- Who cares. Where'd she go?
So, so what? ♪
I'm still a rock star ♪
I got my rock moves ♪
And I don't… ♪
- Mm!
- Oh, sorry. Sorry.
Thought you were my sister.
But she's way prettier.
She looks just like me.
Don't fuck around.
Where did Crisi go?
All right. Please don't tell her
I told you. She made me swear.
She said it would upset her dad…
well, yours…
that she killed someone.
Well, she's right.
He was hoping at least one of us
would be normal.
Said she was gonna hide out.
Lay low in Dubai for a couple weeks
till things calm down.
Dubai?
That bougie bitch! What?
Guess Bulgaria didn't cut it for her.
- That's what she said.
- What happened to the body though?
Extra crispy.
Crisi told me to get rid of it for her.
I put the chick's body in her car
and set it on fire.
All evidence was burned.
They have nothing to go on.
It's on every channel.
She must've thought Crisi was me.
Again, how the fuck would that bitch
know you killed her boyfriend?
Cute little songbird in the bathroom.
Who's she?
Um…
His ex.
Sonia. What's up?
- Why did you break up?
- Well, 'cause he, uh…
He caught me kinda cheating on him.
With a girl.
Anyway, not to be rude,
but if you don't mind, we were about to…
have a make-up fuck,
so if we can wrap this up.
Yeah, or…
How 'bout I jump in and join you?
We got shit to do,
so keep it in your pants.
Come to the party tonight.
- Both of you.
- Well…
I need to start working on the plan
for tomorrow or else I would.
Wait.
Weren't you just getting ready to fuck?
It's one or the other.
You're coming tonight.
Pow.
Fuck!
Where'd my sister find the guts
to kill that bitch?
And save your ass from the fire.
Bones's girl's kinda cute. You into her?
Yeah, I'm in love.
Why'd you invite her to the party?
Hmm?
I was considering a threesome.
For me or for you?
We'll see. You gotta be a good boy.
If you wear something nice to the party,
tonight maybe I will.
Come on.
There's somewhere we need
to go first though.
I killed an innocent woman.
No one in that family is innocent.
Who was that douchebag with the gun?
- Tănase's right hand, Dracu.
- Dracu.
It was a long day.
We need to get ready.
We have a party to go to.
I still can't believe it.
May he rest in peace.
Thanks for coming.
Be strong.
- You always are.
- Thank you.
Ms. Serbu. Hello, ma'am. I'm Vasile Coman.
Thanks for putting this together.
It's an opportunity for his colleagues
to honor him too.
I did the same for my husband as well.
How's Matei?
Luca used to bring him
to our soccer games.
It's… It's been hard.
I didn't let him go out with his friends,
so he ran into his room,
and now he won't come out.
- Maybe I could go talk to him?
- Would you?
- Of course.
- That'd be great.
Matei?
It's Vasile. You remember me?
Ma… Ma…
- No!
- Wait. Wait.
Hold on. Sh! Hold on.
Just wait.
Matei?
Wait.
Hey, little dude, didn't your mommy
ever tell you not to go out after dark?
- Where's Mommy, huh?
- Yo. Tell me.
- Can I help you?
- We found this kid wandering by himself.
Thank God you're here.
Matei, go to Grandma.
She wants to see you.
Go on.
Come on.
See? Matei's in good hands.
He'll be all right.
I told them you weren't here, so they came
to make sure my story checked out.
Come on.
Let's go. Come on.
Get up.

What the fuck is going on,

Well, I was trying to get that information
from Bones.

Tonight, please don't piss Daddy off.
All right.
Go apologize to him now,

I love it when you're jealous.
Ah-ha! ♪
Ehh, yeah, yeah, yeah ♪
Well, at least
my daughter's taste in music is good.
Right. Did she do all of…
No, no, no, no. I meant my other daughter.
She planned it.
- Crisi.
- Okay.
- You know her?
- No.
Boss.
Sorry about earlier.
Drank too much. Got kinda fucked up.
Have a seat.
I've been thinking.
We should probably talk to our friends
to find, uh…
- Find what?
- The object. You know?
- What object?
- To find our girl.
- To track her phone.
- No. Crisi isn't a missing-person's case.
We don't need the cops to start
snooping around and asking questions.
I've got enough on my plate
as it is with the money.
I don't need to add a police interrogation
to all of this,
so you'd better just go
and fucking find my daughter now.
Discretely.
Well, it's been a pleasure.
- Enjoy yourself.
- You as well.
- I can't do it anymore.
- You don't have a choice.
They're looking for her.
We don't have enough time.
