Jaro, come on! Jaro!
Move, please! [grunts]
We're gonna die! We have to go now!
Come on, move! Jaro!

- [indistinct radio chatter]
Jaro, what's going on? You okay?
- Well, someone tried to kill us.
- The police said it was a gas leak.
Are you kidding?
"The flames will come for you."
Ring any bells?
Caleb wasn't threatening our lives.
He was trying to keep us safe.
We must be on the right track.
Someone's trying to get rid of us.
Uh and who are you?
Right, sorry. Ida Heilman. How's it going?
Two women, killed 30 years apart
with the same anthracite mark
on their faces?
That means someone
is continuing the Écrins cult rituals.
I think it's the person
who killed your mom and kidnapped my dad.
Because they both knew, like we do,
that Caleb didn't kill Roxane Vial.
She's joking, right?
And the cops,
what do they think about all this?
- [Ida chuckling] Uh
- [Roméo] What?
- The cops don't know?
- [Ida] Nah. [coughs]
I bet I'm already their number one suspect
for Emma's murder.
It's just a matter of time
before they get me.
They won't listen to me
unless I prove I'm innocent.
Yeah. If my sister's on your back,
she's not about to let that go.
- [Jaro] Wait, your sister?
- Lieutenant Giovanna Deluca.
She's my sister. Oh.
And there is my brother-in-law now.
Talk about a pain in the ass.
This guy makes it an art form.
We gotta move.
I can't get mixed up in this too.
No time to waste anyway. [coughs loudly]
- Our priority has to be the garage.
- [Roméo] I would've figured the hospital.
What's in the garage?
- [intriguing music playing]
- [Ida clears throat]
Right, so if they went after my dad,
it's because he found something.
So the person we're looking for
is in here.
This has gotta be
hundreds of hours of video.
We have to watch all of it?
[Ida] I started classifying
my dad's footage
and the documents he had,
but basically, yeah.
[Ida coughing]
- You sure you're fine?
- Yeah, it's just the smoke.
[Roméo] Or the dust, maybe.
No one's been down here for 30 years.
You know,
no one's forcing you to stay here.
We'll be okay.
You're joking, right?
Know how long I've been waiting
for something to happen here?
- [Ida] Since 2016.
- What?
[Ida] Since 2016.
That's when the Cross Games
were in Lévionna.
The year your career
both peaked and ended.
How do you know that?
- Don't ask, bro. Don't get her started.
- I just did a little research in the car.
Your name comes up
more than 10,000 times online.
Seems like you used to be
a little bit of a celebrity.
The goldmine was your interview
in Motor Star Addict,
in an article called
"2014 Motocross Junior Championship."
That interview had everything.
Growing up in Lévionna,
your passion for biking, first trophies,
how you were a prodigy,
ambitions of a world tour.
And then, in 2016, boom!
Smashed your ribs and blew out your knee.
I found a photo of you
in the Lévionna paper,
lying in a hospital,
full-body cast, under the headline,
"Cross Games Tragedy."
Your career was over.
You even wrote a rap about it.
It was poetic if bitter.
[in French] It was an obsession
I gave it my attention ♪
Wasted so many weeks ♪
[Ida, in English] "Never Again."
Anyway, all that to say,
thanks to the magic of the Internet,
I found your friend "RealSebDeLaPinta,"
and in 2020, he twerked in front of a sign
for a canceled music festival.
And you, big rebel, you commented,
"Not like anything's happened
in this dump since 2016. LOL."
[inhales sharply] Uh
But you
So you just stopped competing?
That's rough, buddy.
- [sighs]
- [Jaro] Sorry, man.
That's her that's her thing.
I'm just
Um, watching all this stuff,
we're gonna get hungry.
I'll go see
if I can find any chocolate cookies.
[gate opens]
[Ida] Cool. Thanks.
[sighs]
What is it?
I wanted to make sure
we could trust the guy.
What? Too many details?
Too direct?
- Too intrusive?
- Too you.
Ah. Uh, okay, okay.
Well, shall we?
[camcorder whirs]
[Solal] Test, one, two. Test, one, two.
- [player whirring]
- [suspenseful music playing]
didn't mix, and that was just fine
for all of us.
I'm not surprised they killed themselves.
[player whirring]
The little girl?
That's all you're here for.
You people are all alike.
The mines being closed,
and us fighting it?
That, you don't give
[player whirring]
Suicide is a grievous offense
against our Lord.
They died the same way they lived.
By flouting the word of Christ.
[player whirring]
[Solal] What do you miss the most
about Roxane?
Talking to her.
[Solal] What would you tell her now,
if you could?
[Juliette takes a deep breath]
That my nightmares are back.
[Solal] What kind of nightmares
are you having?
[Juliette] Do you know the Black Virgin?
It's a legend I learned here.
[tense music playing]
The miners said she'd appear
when a disaster's about to hit or
[takes a deep breath]
somebody you love's about to die.
[tense music building]
She comes to my room at night.
She watches me sleep.
I'm trying to breathe, but I can't.
I can't move. I can't do anything.
[Ida] Your mom was really beautiful.
Like, in a tortured way.
- That really runs in the family, huh?
- [squeaking]
She was so young here,
I barely recognize her.
What do you remember of her?
Ideally, as little as possible.
You know
the "unfinished thoughts" phenomenon?
Every time you try to repress a memory
or avoid a task, it just haunts you more.
Well, you might be right.
Just so that we're clear,
I'm always right.
At least,
I have a very narrow margin of error.
Like 5%.
Check it out. I found something.
It's nuts. You're not ready.
The special forces filmed
their raid on the cult's home in 1994.
[ominous music playing]
CONFIDENTIAL
PROPERTY OF THE NATIONAL POLICE
[suspenseful music playing]
[suspenseful music swells]
- [player clicks]
- [Ida] There was a child in the cult.
And he survived the mass suicide.
[suspenseful music fades]
[coroner] Cause of death was drowning.
No surprise there.
The trauma to her head was severe.
She probably lost consciousness
at least a moment or two,
but that's not what killed her.
You think somebody attacked her?
It's hard to say.
She may have just fallen.
Evidence of sexual assault?
Not that we can tell.
I've got a suspect
with a record, Jaro Gatsi.
If you find any DNA,
could you crosscheck with his profile?
- Theo, make a note.
- Right. Jaro?
Jaro Gatsi. G-A-T-S-I.
- Thanks.
- [coroner] See these marks on her wrists?
Rope burns. Your victim was restrained,
but she fought her captor.
There's also scratches
on her hands and face,
indicating she may have run
through the woods.
So if I had to posit a hypothesis,
I'd say she managed
to escape from her attacker,
but then he caught up
and threw her in the lake.
[tense music playing]
- What is it?
- Scalpel.
[tense music subsides]
[Gio] What is that?
[coroner] Some kind
of subcutaneous implant.
A biometric chip.
- So, why would that be inside her?
- Well, that, I've got no idea.
- [phone vibrates]
- Where'd it come from?
Your phone.
[coat rustles]
It's not me.
Oh, it's not my phone either.
Check the girl's bag.
Maybe it's her phone.
[tense music continues]
What? Fuck!
CHIP SIGNAL LOS
ERASING DATA
[Gio] No, no, no, no!
[music swells]
[somber tune plays on phone]
- [tune ends]
- [Gio gasps]
[sighs]
[somber music playing]
OF LÉVIONNA
[somber music fades]
- Called the cops again?
- [hand brake clicks]
This is a public road.
We have the right to be here.
No one called, Vincent.
But let me ask you,
is that graffiti back there yours?
Uh, no. We're just back here,
protesting peacefully. Nothing more.
So if I look in your bag there,
I'm not gonna find spray paint, right?
Here. Take these. You're gonna freeze.
Don't worry about us.
We've got more than enough gear.
We're taking shifts.
What are you doing here anyway?
It's for work.
About time.
See you at the festival?
And say hi to Elias for me.
- [breeze blowing gently]
- [somber music resumes]
- Lieutenant Deluca, police force.
- [lock opens]
[receptionist] Sorry, Lieutenant.
No one's allowed inside the lab
without having been cleared in advance.
If you'd like to apply,
I can give you the contact information.
This is a court order for Arcacia
to present the name of every scientist
working yesterday afternoon
near La Valette.
A young woman was killed nearby,
and I need their statements for the case.
I'm sure if our employees had
any information,
they would've already told the police.
They still need to come
and provide a witness statement.
It wouldn't be good press.
Especially not for your friends outside.
The best thing would be
if I could speak to someone in charge now.
Unfortunately, that won't be possible.
None of our managers
are currently on site.
I understand.
By the way
[camera beeps]
I have something of yours.
If you want it back,
you know where to find me.
[receptionist sighs]
[intriguing music playing]
[man 1] Come and see.
[woman] He's doing it again. [sighs]
[boy humming gentle tune]
[screaming]
[woman] Stop it, Mani. Stop it now!
Stop it. That's enough, okay?
[sighs] It's okay, Mani. It's okay.
[man 2] The foster family tried.
But they couldn't take it.
They brought him back.
- Poor kid.
- [Solal] Yes, it's terrible.
ITW CAPTAIN MONNIER
[Solal] I don't understand
why he had to be placed there.
Did both his parents die
in the mass suicide?
No, on the contrary.
- [Solal] What do you mean?
- We don't know where he's from.
We looked into everything
we possibly could, even DNA testing,
but there was no match.
- Not with any members of the cult.
- [Solal] So where did he come from?
Was he kidnapped?
We checked that too.
But none of the missing persons' cases
out there matched his profile.
[Solal] So then it's possible
that his parents were part of the cult,
but they didn't die with the others?
[player clicks]
Whoa. Crazy.
[Ida] Yeah.
So his parents must have been disciples
that survived the mass suicide
and are probably the ones performing
the cult's rituals all this time.
[Jaro] So they left without their kid?
That, I'm not sure of at the moment,
which is why we need
to identify Mani's parents.
I'm gonna upload this to iData.
We should also find the cop
your dad was speaking to, right?
It's Denis Monnier.
He was the police captain for a long time.
He's practically my sister's hero.
It won't be easy to talk to him.
He's suffering from Alzheimer's
or something like that.
I mean, it's worth a shot, I guess.
He live around here?
- [coughing]
- [Jaro] Ida, what's going on?
[gasping]
- [Jaro] Ida, you okay?
- No! I can't breathe.
[Jaro] What's wrong?
- [thuds loudly]
- We gotta get her to the hospital. Now.
[wind whistling]
[somber music playing]
[music distorts]
[music fades]
Michel?
Aïdi! What are you doing? Stop that.
Hey!
- [sounds distort]
- [unsettling music playing]
[orderly] Pierre, stop that.
[rhythmic pounding continues]
- [nurse] That's enough!
- Stop!
[nurse] Frank.
Frank, stop.
[pounding grows faster]
I need restraining equipment
and three nurses down in the common room.
Right away.
[pounding stops]
[unsettling music fades]
[group panting]
Did something happen here?
[card reader beeps]
[unsettling music resumes]
[nurse gasps]
[unsettling music fades]
[Roméo] Don't worry. She'll be fine.
I know the doctor.
We went to school together.
He built his career
in the hospital at Bordeaux
and then came back about a year ago.
He's the best. You'll see.
So what's the deal with you
and Ida, man? You like her?
No.
Ah, well. All right. You'd never get bored
with a chick like that.
- [scoffs]
- [door opens]
[indistinct chatter]
Is she going to be okay?
She's fine. She's stabilized.
What's wrong? Is it because of the fire?
[sighs] Well, it didn't help, I suppose.
She should have come
to the hospital right away.
- But there's something else?
- I'm sorry, but are you her family?
- No.
- [doctor] Then I can't disclose anything.
Look, it's all cool. Tell us.
I can't break patient confidentiality
because we're old friends.
- That's not how it works.
- Excuse me.
So, we're "old friends" now?
[sighs] What was I supposed to say?
That when we were kids, we made out
in a swimming pool locker room?
Well, I mean, to my recollection,
the two of us did a lot more
than make out.
[sighs]
Long time ago.
- Huh?
- Ah.
Yeah. I'll call you
when your friend wakes up. 'Kay?
Hello. Anaïs?
[Malia] Hi, Daddy.
Malia, are you with Mommy?
Do you know what Gaspard said?
Gaspard said my great-great-great-grandpa
wasn't really a pirate.
- But he was, right?
- [chuckles] Of course he was.
Can you tell him I'm telling the truth?
I'll tell him, I promise.
When?
[gentle music playing]
[sighs] Really soon.
On my birthday?
[Anaïs] Malia, who are you talking to?
- I phoned Daddy.
- What are you doing with my phone? Go on.
Jaro?
[sighs] Hi.
Did Malia call you?
Yeah, but I wasn't going behind your back.
I know. I I had no idea
she could even unlock my phone.
- [sighs]
- [music fades]
- Our daughter's a smart one, isn't she?
- Yeah. Yeah, she is.
Sorry. I have to let you go now.
Bye, Jaro.
[line clicks]
You okay?
Yeah, I'm good.
Well, no use in us waiting around.
Hari will let us know if anything changes.
How long till we can meet the cop?
The one from the video.
Well, it's pretty late.
We should wait until morning.
I'll call tomorrow,
see if we can stop by then. 'Kay?
[somber music playing]
[wind whistling]
- Thanks for coming to get me.
- [Claude] Of course. No problem.
I'm sorry for your friend's trouble.
I hope she's all right.
Sorry for making it your problem.
It'll be fine.
I know you're not involved
in that girl's death.
Did you know that my mother
was a part of the Écrins cult?
Who told you that?
So you did know.
[Claude sighs]
You have to understand
what it was like for us.
Today everybody will tell you
they stayed away from the cult,
but that's not true.
They had parties at night.
There was drugs, music
That was exciting for local kids.
We all went at least once.
But my mother didn't go there
to party, did she?
At first, she did.
But then Johansson
took an interest in her.
And she was captivated by him.
They said he could heal folks.
There were even rumors going around
that there had been miracles.
And Juliette wanted healing for what?
Her nightmares?
I don't know what she wanted.
I was 20 years old.
I was just
I was a selfish kid.
I'll never forgive myself.
- Wait! Stop!
- [Claude] What's going on?
Someone's here! [panting]
[Marie] Someone's here.
There's someone in the house!
I heard a noise when I was downstairs.
From the upper floor.
Whoever it was,
they were searching your mother's room.
[suspenseful music playing]
[suspenseful music fades]
[panting]
[wind whistling]
- I don't want my fingers to get caught.
- They won't.
- [man] Hello!
- [Gio] How's the little mining man?
- [boy] Good.
- Let's try it on.
Grandma helped us make
the costumes for the winter festival.
- Oh, wow!
- These are incredible. Let's have a look.
- [boy] See?
- [man] Great.
Thank you.
Apparently, you saw her father today.
Is that true?
[Gio sighs]
- What were they doing at Arcacia?
- [Gio sighs]
[scoffs] Wow, word travels fast.
Come on, Louane. I'll take you home.
Go get changed. Grab your stuff.
Your visit to the lab, does it have
anything to do with that dead girl?
That's none of your business, Mom.
Your whole group needs
to take a step back.
And Vincent can't camp out
in front of Arcacia all winter.
[mom] We will not back down.
Not until they take accountability
for Elias's deformities.
- Not to mention what happened to you.
- You need to stop, Mom. You're obsessed.
A miscarriage after five months.
- That is rare.
- Spare me your conspiracy theories.
They have to understand
what they did was wrong.
These people,
their actions have consequences.
We could've lost you. Huh?
You almost didn't survive your depression.
Carmela.
Louane's ready.
I'll drive you back with her.
[somber music playing]
[Gio sighs]
- [man] You okay?
- I'm fine.
One second.
[Carmela] Right, I'm ready.
[man] See you soon.
[Gio sighs]
- [gasps]
- [dripping]
[Gio] Erwan?
- Erwan!
- [Erwan] What's wrong?
- [groaning]
- [Erwan] What's wrong?
[doctor] Physically, she's fine.
But I'm concerned about her mental state.
She alternates between moments
of complete apathy
and more manic episodes.
We'll have to keep her under observation
for longer than expected.
I've requested
a psychological consultation.
[monitor beeping]
[groans softly]
[coughs]
[gasps softly]
[inhales sharply]
[weakly] Dad?
My baby.
[gasps] Oh, Dad.
[crying] Dad.
What did you do to yourself now?
Dad, I'm so scared.
It's okay, baby. I'm here. I'm right here.
I thought I'd never see you again.
[chuckles weakly, sobs]
I'm sorry we had that fight.
Me too, honey.
But I can't do what you're asking of me.
I'm not going to stay
and watch you die, honey.
You have to get better.
I can't take it.
I'm sorry, but it's just too hard.
And besides, it's useless.
You know that, Dad.
[Solal sighs]
[Ida grunts]
It's never pointless to fight.
Have a look.
[camcorder whirring]
- [Ida] That's me?
- [Solal] Mm-hmm.
[eerie music playing]
[birds singing]
[energetic music playing]
[indistinct chatter]
We know where the boy is from.
We found him. Check the video.
Wait, what?
[distorted] Check the video. Check
- [gasps]
- [music cuts out]
- [notification alerts chiming]
- [coughs]
[man] This girl's death
is terrible publicity
for a town like ours
that relies on tourism.
We must all be beyond reproach.
Of course.
Arcacia also wants full transparency
in this case.
Their lawyers will send you
an official statement.
They say they know nothing
about the death of Emma Marçais,
but they admitted she was taking part
in a paid clinical trial.
What kind of clinical trial?
I have no idea,
but all of their paperwork was in order.
She was apparently in very good health.
- Okay. I'll look into it.
- Hmm.
Look, it's obviously not my place
to tell you how to do your job,
but why don't we try
to avoid any embarrassments?
- For sure.
- Goodbye, then.
See you, Mr. Mayor.
We just got the results
of Emma Marçais's autopsy.
They found Jaro Gatsi's DNA on her corpse.
- Ah, well then
- [tense music playing]
[sighs] Look. I'm gonna call Giovanna.
Can you bring him in?
Sure, yeah.
- [phone ringing]
- [newscaster speaking indistinctly on TV]
[woman] Captain Monnier!
It's an unknown number.
Should I pick it up?
No. It's only telemarketers
who ever call that number now.
- [tense music plays]
- [Denis screams]
- [woman] Denis! What is it?
- There's someone! There!
Oh, really? I don't see anybody out there.
I'm telling you, he was there!
He had a mask!
[woman] Denis.
Denis, you have to calm down.
You know your imagination
plays tricks on you.
- No, I'm not! I didn't imagine it!
- Denis.
- I'm not nuts!
- Shh! Calm down, okay?
- Somebody was out there, Sandrine!
- Just calm down. I'll check.
It's happening again.
No, Sandrine! No, Sandrine!
- It's okay.
- He's dangerous! Wait! Stop!
[panting]
Nobody's out here
[screaming]
[Denis and Sandrine's screams echo]
[sinister music playing]
[music fades]
- [Roméo] We can't stay long.
- [phone chimes]
Thierry wants us handing out flyers
for the winter festival.
It's Ida. She's awake.
And she found something, apparently.
[gun fires]
[tense music playing]
Ma'am? Hey, she's still breathing.
Ma'am?
- Denis?
- [Jaro] Can you hear me?
Be careful!
Denis!
- [gunfire]
- [Denis] You'll never take me alive!
Bastard! You'll never get me!
[indistinct chatter]
What happened here?
I think someone attacked him
and his nurse,
but he scared them off with his gun.
- Where is he now?
- He's in the house.
I managed to calm him down a bit,
but I have no idea what he's saying.
[Gio] What's he doing here?
Uh, we wanted to talk to Monnier, and so
He can help prove
I wasn't involved in Emma's death.
Oh yeah? Can he explain why we found
traces of your saliva on her body?
It's not what you think.
We're going to talk.
But first, I have to deal with Denis.
Roméo, you too.
[softly] Stay here and be quiet.
- [shudders]
- Denis.
Ah, Giovanna.
We've got to mobilize the entire force,
get them up to the cult.
Just calm down.
You're safe now. You'll be okay, Denis.
I won't! They killed that girl.
They murdered Roxane.
We have to get up there,
or something bad will happen.
Roxane's been dead for a long time.
Denis, it's 2024, you understand?
[tense music playing]
[gasps]
[Gio] Come on, Denis. Try to remember.
Someone attacked you.
What did they look like?
But that's not possible.
They're all dead now.
What? Who's dead?
You're talking about the cult, aren't you?
- Your attacker was one of them.
- I said be quiet.
Yes.
He was wearing a mask.
It looked like a goat. It had horns.
We found the same masks in the cult.
And at no point did you see his face?
I don't remember. I
I'm not sure anymore
It's fine, Denis. It's fine.
Why don't you try to get some rest?
Is this the man who attacked you?
Maybe a little older?
[Denis whimpering]
[Gio] Denis, did he attack you?
Yes! That's him!
[Gio] Who is this?
Where did you get this photo?
[Ida] Right, so in the video of Mani,
the boy from the cult,
we hear him singing.
We isolated the audio,
but obviously Shazam
wasn't gonna help us with this one.
Luckily, my forum hosts a playlist
dedicated to identifying sounds.
A Canadian sleuth recognized it.
His Russian grandmother used to sing it.
She came from a small village in Siberia.
Bolsher Bolsho No, that's not it.
Bolchyrek? Ugh! Anyway
The name rang a bell for one of my sleuths
who works for the FRIS. Not the FRIZZ.
The Federation for Research
and Information on Sectarianism.
It's a Swiss thing.
She remembered that back in the '80s,
a shamanic religious community
set up camp in the mountains
near Barboz Barbousy? [screams]
Anyway, we searched
the Russian TV archives and found this.
[in Russian] He kidnapped my son!
[Ida, in English] I'll translate.
This woman's husband is Vassili Derevko.
He was a fanatic
who dragged her and their son, Mani,
to this shamanic community
in Siberia, except one day,
he decided the group
wasn't radical enough, so he disappeared.
And the poor woman
had no idea where he or her son went.
Except we know that they went to France
to join up with,
you guessed it, the Écrins.
So then Caleb had a 13th disciple,
Vassili Derevko.
[Jaro sighs]
So you figure that this 13th disciple
killed Roxane Vial back then
and has come back to kill Emma Marçais?
[Ida] Yeah. And he kidnapped my dad.
You have to admit,
it's possible he never left
and has been practicing
rituals here for years.
This region has
a lot of mysterious disappearances, right?
- Did you tell her about that?
- What? No, of course not.
That's a pretty convenient story for you.
[Roméo] Gio, come on. Give him a break.
Monnier recognized Derevko.
What do you want?
There's a crazy Russian fanatic
out there, trying to kill us,
and the clock's ticking.
This is all just speculation
you found online. Sorry.
We need to verify everything,
and there are still plenty of gray areas
- We don't even know what happened to Mani.
- [Ida] Yes, we do.
He spent a few years at home
but ran away at 15.
Lived on the street,
had mental health issues,
and froze to death in 2006.
There. Not so bad
for info found online, right?
Well, from now on,
you three let the police do their jobs.
[sighs]
I'll do some digging
and send Derevko's description.
In the meantime, I don't wanna see you.
If I do, I'll arrest you
for obstruction of justice.
- [gasps] I love her.
- [scoffs]
- Hey, what happened to you yesterday?
- [coughs]
Nothing. I breathed in too much smoke,
like I said.
But why didn't they put you
on hyperbaric oxygen therapy
or a ventilator?
Wow. You should have finished med school.
Ow. Okay, let's take a photo.
What? Uh, hold on.
You really want to immortalize this?
[scoffs] We can't sit around and wait
for Derevko to strike again, right?
We'll make him come to us.
- He just needs to know where we are.
- What?
Duck face!
LÉVIONNA FESTIVAL, HERE WE COME!
- [excited chatter]
- [upbeat percussion music playing]
- What? You're supposed to be on du Four.
- Denis was attacked.
- What?
- He's not hurt. His nurse is in a coma.
- What happened?
- [sighs] I'm not sure.
He identified his attacker,
and I've put out an APB.
I don't believe this.
And what about Jaro Gatsi?
I spoke to him,
but I think we're mistaken.
Gio, his DNA is on the body.
- [sighs]
- [son] Daddy! Mommy!
- [Erwan] Having fun, champ?
- [Gio] Hey! You good? Hi!
[music ends]
- [bell tolling]
- [crowd exclaims]
[crowd cheering]
One, two
Good people of Lévionna,
welcome to the festival!
[crowd cheers]
I won't be long.
I just wanna thank you all
for being here today.
[crowd cheers]
- [Roméo] Where did Ida go?
- [mayor] I have to thank the sponsors
I don't know, but we have to find Derevko.
- Let's split up.
- Okay.
And a huge thank you
to our corporate sponsor, Arcacia.
[crowd booing]
Who contributed financing
for a portion of the festival,
and who are helping transform
the town's image.
[jeering continues]
And so now, it's time to celebrate!
[crowd continues cheering]
- [pop music playing]
- Thank you.
Pardon me. Sorry.
[ominous music playing]
You got a problem?
I don't know. Why don't you tell me, huh?
- Sorry. I'm a little on edge.
- Yeah, I can see that.
Is it because of your new best friend?
The guy accused of killing
the girl they found in the lake?
Pfft. That's bullshit.
We're trying to find the guy who did it.
Oh, okay. You're a detective now.
Hey, just because I'm not a doctor
doesn't mean
that I'm some redneck idiot, okay?
Roméo, I never said that.
I don't want you getting hurt. That's all.
And why do you suddenly care? Huh?
Look, I don't know.
I guess I just care about you.
Why'd you ignore me since coming back?
Look, I'm not ignoring you.
It's just that things
at the hospital are busy now.
- That's all.
- [Roméo] Oh shit.
Uh, listen. I have to go,
but, uh, we'll talk later.
[suspenseful music playing]
[Roméo] Excuse me.
- Your costume's amazing.
- [Malia] Daddy!
Honey, what are you doing here?
Look who I found waiting for you
at the front door.
Hi, Jaro.
Clearly, we need to figure things out.
Since she's calling you
behind my back, we should talk.
Yeah, but why didn't you call me first?
It was a spur-of-the-moment thing.
We were visiting my folks in Lyon,
and I thought we'd swing by.
- Aren't you happy to see your daughter?
- Obviously, I'm happy, Anaïs.
It's just not a great time right now.
Jaro, I saw him. He's here.
What's going on?
Marie, take them back to the farm.
Right away.
- All right.
- [Malia] No! I wanna stay with you!
I'm so sorry, baby. But it's not possible.
Jaro, what are you doing?
I can't explain right now.
But you can't stay. It's too dangerous.
Dangerous?
You got yourself
in another mess, didn't you?
I don't even wanna know.
Come on, Malia. We're leaving.
[Malia] Daddy! I don't wanna go.
[somber music playing]

They're lying to all of us!
We're just lab rats to them!

Jaro, what's going on? You okay?
- Well, someone tried to kill us.
- The police said it was a gas leak.
Are you kidding?
"The flames will come for you."
Ring any bells?
Caleb wasn't threatening our lives.
He was trying to keep us safe.
We must be on the right track.
Someone's trying to get rid of us.
Uh and who are you?
Right, sorry. Ida Heilman. How's it going?
Two women, killed 30 years apart
with the same anthracite mark
on their faces?
That means someone
is continuing the Écrins cult rituals.
I think it's the person
who killed your mom and kidnapped my dad.
Because they both knew, like we do,
that Caleb didn't kill Roxane Vial.
She's joking, right?
And the cops,
what do they think about all this?
- [Ida chuckling] Uh
- [Roméo] What?
- The cops don't know?
- [Ida] Nah. [coughs]
I bet I'm already their number one suspect
for Emma's murder.
It's just a matter of time
before they get me.
They won't listen to me
unless I prove I'm innocent.
Yeah. If my sister's on your back,
she's not about to let that go.
- [Jaro] Wait, your sister?
- Lieutenant Giovanna Deluca.
She's my sister. Oh.
And there is my brother-in-law now.
Talk about a pain in the ass.
This guy makes it an art form.
We gotta move.
I can't get mixed up in this too.
No time to waste anyway. [coughs loudly]
- Our priority has to be the garage.
- [Roméo] I would've figured the hospital.
What's in the garage?
- [intriguing music playing]
- [Ida clears throat]
Right, so if they went after my dad,
it's because he found something.
So the person we're looking for
is in here.
This has gotta be
hundreds of hours of video.
We have to watch all of it?
[Ida] I started classifying
my dad's footage
and the documents he had,
but basically, yeah.
[Ida coughing]
- You sure you're fine?
- Yeah, it's just the smoke.
[Roméo] Or the dust, maybe.
No one's been down here for 30 years.
You know,
no one's forcing you to stay here.
We'll be okay.
You're joking, right?
Know how long I've been waiting
for something to happen here?
- [Ida] Since 2016.
- What?
[Ida] Since 2016.
That's when the Cross Games
were in Lévionna.
The year your career
both peaked and ended.
How do you know that?
- Don't ask, bro. Don't get her started.
- I just did a little research in the car.
Your name comes up
more than 10,000 times online.
Seems like you used to be
a little bit of a celebrity.
The goldmine was your interview
in Motor Star Addict,
in an article called
"2014 Motocross Junior Championship."
That interview had everything.
Growing up in Lévionna,
your passion for biking, first trophies,
how you were a prodigy,
ambitions of a world tour.
And then, in 2016, boom!
Smashed your ribs and blew out your knee.
I found a photo of you
in the Lévionna paper,
lying in a hospital,
full-body cast, under the headline,
"Cross Games Tragedy."
Your career was over.
You even wrote a rap about it.
It was poetic if bitter.
[in French] It was an obsession
I gave it my attention ♪
Wasted so many weeks ♪
[Ida, in English] "Never Again."
Anyway, all that to say,
thanks to the magic of the Internet,
I found your friend "RealSebDeLaPinta,"
and in 2020, he twerked in front of a sign
for a canceled music festival.
And you, big rebel, you commented,
"Not like anything's happened
in this dump since 2016. LOL."
[inhales sharply] Uh
But you
So you just stopped competing?
That's rough, buddy.
- [sighs]
- [Jaro] Sorry, man.
That's her that's her thing.
I'm just
Um, watching all this stuff,
we're gonna get hungry.
I'll go see
if I can find any chocolate cookies.
[gate opens]
[Ida] Cool. Thanks.
[sighs]
What is it?
I wanted to make sure
we could trust the guy.
What? Too many details?
Too direct?
- Too intrusive?
- Too you.
Ah. Uh, okay, okay.
Well, shall we?
[camcorder whirs]
[Solal] Test, one, two. Test, one, two.
- [player whirring]
- [suspenseful music playing]
didn't mix, and that was just fine
for all of us.
I'm not surprised they killed themselves.
[player whirring]
The little girl?
That's all you're here for.
You people are all alike.
The mines being closed,
and us fighting it?
That, you don't give
[player whirring]
Suicide is a grievous offense
against our Lord.
They died the same way they lived.
By flouting the word of Christ.
[player whirring]
[Solal] What do you miss the most
about Roxane?
Talking to her.
[Solal] What would you tell her now,
if you could?
[Juliette takes a deep breath]
That my nightmares are back.
[Solal] What kind of nightmares
are you having?
[Juliette] Do you know the Black Virgin?
It's a legend I learned here.
[tense music playing]
The miners said she'd appear
when a disaster's about to hit or
[takes a deep breath]
somebody you love's about to die.
[tense music building]
She comes to my room at night.
She watches me sleep.
I'm trying to breathe, but I can't.
I can't move. I can't do anything.
[Ida] Your mom was really beautiful.
Like, in a tortured way.
- That really runs in the family, huh?
- [squeaking]
She was so young here,
I barely recognize her.
What do you remember of her?
Ideally, as little as possible.
You know
the "unfinished thoughts" phenomenon?
Every time you try to repress a memory
or avoid a task, it just haunts you more.
Well, you might be right.
Just so that we're clear,
I'm always right.
At least,
I have a very narrow margin of error.
Like 5%.
Check it out. I found something.
It's nuts. You're not ready.
The special forces filmed
their raid on the cult's home in 1994.
[ominous music playing]
CONFIDENTIAL
PROPERTY OF THE NATIONAL POLICE
[suspenseful music playing]
[suspenseful music swells]
- [player clicks]
- [Ida] There was a child in the cult.
And he survived the mass suicide.
[suspenseful music fades]
[coroner] Cause of death was drowning.
No surprise there.
The trauma to her head was severe.
She probably lost consciousness
at least a moment or two,
but that's not what killed her.
You think somebody attacked her?
It's hard to say.
She may have just fallen.
Evidence of sexual assault?
Not that we can tell.
I've got a suspect
with a record, Jaro Gatsi.
If you find any DNA,
could you crosscheck with his profile?
- Theo, make a note.
- Right. Jaro?
Jaro Gatsi. G-A-T-S-I.
- Thanks.
- [coroner] See these marks on her wrists?
Rope burns. Your victim was restrained,
but she fought her captor.
There's also scratches
on her hands and face,
indicating she may have run
through the woods.
So if I had to posit a hypothesis,
I'd say she managed
to escape from her attacker,
but then he caught up
and threw her in the lake.
[tense music playing]
- What is it?
- Scalpel.
[tense music subsides]
[Gio] What is that?
[coroner] Some kind
of subcutaneous implant.
A biometric chip.
- So, why would that be inside her?
- Well, that, I've got no idea.
- [phone vibrates]
- Where'd it come from?
Your phone.
[coat rustles]
It's not me.
Oh, it's not my phone either.
Check the girl's bag.
Maybe it's her phone.
[tense music continues]
What? Fuck!

OF LÉVIONNA
[somber music fades]
- Called the cops again?
- [hand brake clicks]
This is a public road.
We have the right to be here.
No one called, Vincent.
But let me ask you,
is that graffiti back there yours?
Uh, no. We're just back here,
protesting peacefully. Nothing more.
So if I look in your bag there,
I'm not gonna find spray paint, right?
Here. Take these. You're gonna freeze.
Don't worry about us.
We've got more than enough gear.
We're taking shifts.
What are you doing here anyway?
It's for work.
About time.
See you at the festival?
And say hi to Elias for me.
- [breeze blowing gently]
- [somber music resumes]
- Lieutenant Deluca, police force.
- [lock opens]
[receptionist] Sorry, Lieutenant.
No one's allowed inside the lab
without having been cleared in advance.
If you'd like to apply,
I can give you the contact information.
This is a court order for Arcacia
to present the name of every scientist
working yesterday afternoon
near La Valette.
A young woman was killed nearby,
and I need their statements for the case.
I'm sure if our employees had
any information,
they would've already told the police.
They still need to come
and provide a witness statement.
It wouldn't be good press.
Especially not for your friends outside.
The best thing would be
if I could speak to someone in charge now.
Unfortunately, that won't be possible.
None of our managers
are currently on site.
I understand.
By the way
[camera beeps]
I have something of yours.
If you want it back,
you know where to find me.
[receptionist sighs]
[intriguing music playing]
[man 1] Come and see.
[woman] He's doing it again. [sighs]
[boy humming gentle tune]
[screaming]
[woman] Stop it, Mani. Stop it now!
Stop it. That's enough, okay?
[sighs] It's okay, Mani. It's okay.
[man 2] The foster family tried.
But they couldn't take it.
They brought him back.
- Poor kid.
- [Solal] Yes, it's terrible.
ITW CAPTAIN MONNIER
[Solal] I don't understand
why he had to be placed there.
Did both his parents die
in the mass suicide?
No, on the contrary.
- [Solal] What do you mean?
- We don't know where he's from.
We looked into everything
we possibly could, even DNA testing,
but there was no match.
- Not with any members of the cult.
- [Solal] So where did he come from?
Was he kidnapped?
We checked that too.
But none of the missing persons' cases
out there matched his profile.
[Solal] So then it's possible
that his parents were part of the cult,
but they didn't die with the others?
[player clicks]
Whoa. Crazy.
[Ida] Yeah.
So his parents must have been disciples
that survived the mass suicide
and are probably the ones performing
the cult's rituals all this time.
[Jaro] So they left without their kid?
That, I'm not sure of at the moment,
which is why we need
to identify Mani's parents.
I'm gonna upload this to iData.
We should also find the cop
your dad was speaking to, right?
It's Denis Monnier.
He was the police captain for a long time.
He's practically my sister's hero.
It won't be easy to talk to him.
He's suffering from Alzheimer's
or something like that.
I mean, it's worth a shot, I guess.
He live around here?
- [coughing]
- [Jaro] Ida, what's going on?
[gasping]
- [Jaro] Ida, you okay?
- No! I can't breathe.
[Jaro] What's wrong?
- [thuds loudly]
- We gotta get her to the hospital. Now.
[wind whistling]
[somber music playing]
[music distorts]
[music fades]
Michel?
Aïdi! What are you doing? Stop that.
Hey!
- [sounds distort]
- [unsettling music playing]
[orderly] Pierre, stop that.
[rhythmic pounding continues]
- [nurse] That's enough!
- Stop!
[nurse] Frank.
Frank, stop.
[pounding grows faster]
I need restraining equipment
and three nurses down in the common room.
Right away.
[pounding stops]
[unsettling music fades]
[group panting]
Did something happen here?
[card reader beeps]
[unsettling music resumes]
[nurse gasps]
[unsettling music fades]
[Roméo] Don't worry. She'll be fine.
I know the doctor.
We went to school together.
He built his career
in the hospital at Bordeaux
and then came back about a year ago.
He's the best. You'll see.
So what's the deal with you
and Ida, man? You like her?
No.
Ah, well. All right. You'd never get bored
with a chick like that.
- [scoffs]
- [door opens]
[indistinct chatter]
Is she going to be okay?
She's fine. She's stabilized.
What's wrong? Is it because of the fire?
[sighs] Well, it didn't help, I suppose.
She should have come
to the hospital right away.
- But there's something else?
- I'm sorry, but are you her family?
- No.
- [doctor] Then I can't disclose anything.
Look, it's all cool. Tell us.
I can't break patient confidentiality
because we're old friends.
- That's not how it works.
- Excuse me.
So, we're "old friends" now?
[sighs] What was I supposed to say?
That when we were kids, we made out
in a swimming pool locker room?
Well, I mean, to my recollection,
the two of us did a lot more
than make out.
[sighs]
Long time ago.
- Huh?
- Ah.
Yeah. I'll call you
when your friend wakes up. 'Kay?
Hello. Anaïs?
[Malia] Hi, Daddy.
Malia, are you with Mommy?
Do you know what Gaspard said?
Gaspard said my great-great-great-grandpa
wasn't really a pirate.
- But he was, right?
- [chuckles] Of course he was.
Can you tell him I'm telling the truth?
I'll tell him, I promise.
When?
[gentle music playing]
[sighs] Really soon.
On my birthday?
[Anaïs] Malia, who are you talking to?
- I phoned Daddy.
- What are you doing with my phone? Go on.
Jaro?
[sighs] Hi.
Did Malia call you?
Yeah, but I wasn't going behind your back.
I know. I I had no idea
she could even unlock my phone.
- [sighs]
- [music fades]
- Our daughter's a smart one, isn't she?
- Yeah. Yeah, she is.
Sorry. I have to let you go now.
Bye, Jaro.
[line clicks]
You okay?
Yeah, I'm good.
Well, no use in us waiting around.
Hari will let us know if anything changes.
How long till we can meet the cop?
The one from the video.
Well, it's pretty late.
We should wait until morning.
I'll call tomorrow,
see if we can stop by then. 'Kay?
[somber music playing]
[wind whistling]
- Thanks for coming to get me.
- [Claude] Of course. No problem.
I'm sorry for your friend's trouble.
I hope she's all right.
Sorry for making it your problem.
It'll be fine.
I know you're not involved
in that girl's death.
Did you know that my mother
was a part of the Écrins cult?
Who told you that?
So you did know.
[Claude sighs]
You have to understand
what it was like for us.
Today everybody will tell you
they stayed away from the cult,
but that's not true.
They had parties at night.
There was drugs, music
That was exciting for local kids.
We all went at least once.
But my mother didn't go there
to party, did she?
At first, she did.
But then Johansson
took an interest in her.
And she was captivated by him.
They said he could heal folks.
There were even rumors going around
that there had been miracles.
And Juliette wanted healing for what?
Her nightmares?
I don't know what she wanted.
I was 20 years old.
I was just
I was a selfish kid.
I'll never forgive myself.
- Wait! Stop!
- [Claude] What's going on?
Someone's here! [panting]
[Marie] Someone's here.
There's someone in the house!
I heard a noise when I was downstairs.
From the upper floor.
Whoever it was,
they were searching your mother's room.
[suspenseful music playing]
[suspenseful music fades]
[panting]
[wind whistling]
- I don't want my fingers to get caught.
- They won't.
- [man] Hello!
- [Gio] How's the little mining man?
- [boy] Good.
- Let's try it on.
Grandma helped us make
the costumes for the winter festival.
- Oh, wow!
- These are incredible. Let's have a look.
- [boy] See?
- [man] Great.
Thank you.
Apparently, you saw her father today.
Is that true?
[Gio sighs]
- What were they doing at Arcacia?
- [Gio sighs]
[scoffs] Wow, word travels fast.
Come on, Louane. I'll take you home.
Go get changed. Grab your stuff.
Your visit to the lab, does it have
anything to do with that dead girl?
That's none of your business, Mom.
Your whole group needs
to take a step back.
And Vincent can't camp out
in front of Arcacia all winter.
[mom] We will not back down.
Not until they take accountability
for Elias's deformities.
- Not to mention what happened to you.
- You need to stop, Mom. You're obsessed.
A miscarriage after five months.
- That is rare.
- Spare me your conspiracy theories.
They have to understand
what they did was wrong.
These people,
their actions have consequences.
We could've lost you. Huh?
You almost didn't survive your depression.
Carmela.
Louane's ready.
I'll drive you back with her.
[somber music playing]
[Gio sighs]
- [man] You okay?
- I'm fine.
One second.
[Carmela] Right, I'm ready.
[man] See you soon.
[Gio sighs]
- [gasps]
- [dripping]
[Gio] Erwan?
- Erwan!
- [Erwan] What's wrong?
- [groaning]
- [Erwan] What's wrong?
[doctor] Physically, she's fine.
But I'm concerned about her mental state.
She alternates between moments
of complete apathy
and more manic episodes.
We'll have to keep her under observation
for longer than expected.
I've requested
a psychological consultation.
[monitor beeping]
[groans softly]
[coughs]
[gasps softly]
[inhales sharply]
[weakly] Dad?
My baby.
[gasps] Oh, Dad.
[crying] Dad.
What did you do to yourself now?
Dad, I'm so scared.
It's okay, baby. I'm here. I'm right here.
I thought I'd never see you again.
[chuckles weakly, sobs]
I'm sorry we had that fight.
Me too, honey.
But I can't do what you're asking of me.
I'm not going to stay
and watch you die, honey.
You have to get better.
I can't take it.
I'm sorry, but it's just too hard.
And besides, it's useless.
You know that, Dad.
[Solal sighs]
[Ida grunts]
It's never pointless to fight.
Have a look.
[camcorder whirring]
- [Ida] That's me?
- [Solal] Mm-hmm.
[eerie music playing]
[birds singing]
[energetic music playing]
[indistinct chatter]
We know where the boy is from.
We found him. Check the video.
Wait, what?
[distorted] Check the video. Check
- [gasps]
- [music cuts out]
- [notification alerts chiming]
- [coughs]
[man] This girl's death
is terrible publicity
for a town like ours
that relies on tourism.
We must all be beyond reproach.
Of course.
Arcacia also wants full transparency
in this case.
Their lawyers will send you
an official statement.
They say they know nothing
about the death of Emma Marçais,
but they admitted she was taking part
in a paid clinical trial.
What kind of clinical trial?
I have no idea,
but all of their paperwork was in order.
She was apparently in very good health.
- Okay. I'll look into it.
- Hmm.
Look, it's obviously not my place
to tell you how to do your job,
but why don't we try
to avoid any embarrassments?
- For sure.
- Goodbye, then.
See you, Mr. Mayor.
We just got the results
of Emma Marçais's autopsy.
They found Jaro Gatsi's DNA on her corpse.
- Ah, well then
- [tense music playing]
[sighs] Look. I'm gonna call Giovanna.
Can you bring him in?
Sure, yeah.
- [phone ringing]
- [newscaster speaking indistinctly on TV]
[woman] Captain Monnier!
It's an unknown number.
Should I pick it up?
No. It's only telemarketers
who ever call that number now.
- [tense music plays]
- [Denis screams]
- [woman] Denis! What is it?
- There's someone! There!
Oh, really? I don't see anybody out there.
I'm telling you, he was there!
He had a mask!
[woman] Denis.
Denis, you have to calm down.
You know your imagination
plays tricks on you.
- No, I'm not! I didn't imagine it!
- Denis.
- I'm not nuts!
- Shh! Calm down, okay?
- Somebody was out there, Sandrine!
- Just calm down. I'll check.
It's happening again.
No, Sandrine! No, Sandrine!
- It's okay.
- He's dangerous! Wait! Stop!
[panting]
Nobody's out here
[screaming]
[Denis and Sandrine's screams echo]
[sinister music playing]
[music fades]
- [Roméo] We can't stay long.
- [phone chimes]
Thierry wants us handing out flyers
for the winter festival.
It's Ida. She's awake.
And she found something, apparently.
[gun fires]
[tense music playing]
Ma'am? Hey, she's still breathing.
Ma'am?
- Denis?
- [Jaro] Can you hear me?
Be careful!
Denis!
- [gunfire]
- [Denis] You'll never take me alive!
Bastard! You'll never get me!
[indistinct chatter]
What happened here?
I think someone attacked him
and his nurse,
but he scared them off with his gun.
- Where is he now?
- He's in the house.
I managed to calm him down a bit,
but I have no idea what he's saying.
[Gio] What's he doing here?
Uh, we wanted to talk to Monnier, and so
He can help prove
I wasn't involved in Emma's death.
Oh yeah? Can he explain why we found
traces of your saliva on her body?
It's not what you think.
We're going to talk.
But first, I have to deal with Denis.
Roméo, you too.
[softly] Stay here and be quiet.
- [shudders]
- Denis.
Ah, Giovanna.
We've got to mobilize the entire force,
get them up to the cult.
Just calm down.
You're safe now. You'll be okay, Denis.
I won't! They killed that girl.
They murdered Roxane.
We have to get up there,
or something bad will happen.
Roxane's been dead for a long time.
Denis, it's 2024, you understand?
[tense music playing]
[gasps]
[Gio] Come on, Denis. Try to remember.
Someone attacked you.
What did they look like?
But that's not possible.
They're all dead now.
What? Who's dead?
You're talking about the cult, aren't you?
- Your attacker was one of them.
- I said be quiet.
Yes.
He was wearing a mask.
It looked like a goat. It had horns.
We found the same masks in the cult.
And at no point did you see his face?
I don't remember. I
I'm not sure anymore
It's fine, Denis. It's fine.
Why don't you try to get some rest?
Is this the man who attacked you?
Maybe a little older?
[Denis whimpering]
[Gio] Denis, did he attack you?
Yes! That's him!
[Gio] Who is this?
Where did you get this photo?
[Ida] Right, so in the video of Mani,
the boy from the cult,
we hear him singing.
We isolated the audio,
but obviously Shazam
wasn't gonna help us with this one.
Luckily, my forum hosts a playlist
dedicated to identifying sounds.
A Canadian sleuth recognized it.
His Russian grandmother used to sing it.
She came from a small village in Siberia.
Bolsher Bolsho No, that's not it.
Bolchyrek? Ugh! Anyway
The name rang a bell for one of my sleuths
who works for the FRIS. Not the FRIZZ.
The Federation for Research
and Information on Sectarianism.
It's a Swiss thing.
She remembered that back in the '80s,
a shamanic religious community
set up camp in the mountains
near Barboz Barbousy? [screams]
Anyway, we searched
the Russian TV archives and found this.
[in Russian] He kidnapped my son!
[Ida, in English] I'll translate.
This woman's husband is Vassili Derevko.
He was a fanatic
who dragged her and their son, Mani,
to this shamanic community
in Siberia, except one day,
he decided the group
wasn't radical enough, so he disappeared.
And the poor woman
had no idea where he or her son went.
Except we know that they went to France
to join up with,
you guessed it, the Écrins.
So then Caleb had a 13th disciple,
Vassili Derevko.
[Jaro sighs]
So you figure that this 13th disciple
killed Roxane Vial back then
and has come back to kill Emma Marçais?
[Ida] Yeah. And he kidnapped my dad.
You have to admit,
it's possible he never left
and has been practicing
rituals here for years.
This region has
a lot of mysterious disappearances, right?
- Did you tell her about that?
- What? No, of course not.
That's a pretty convenient story for you.
[Roméo] Gio, come on. Give him a break.
Monnier recognized Derevko.
What do you want?
There's a crazy Russian fanatic
out there, trying to kill us,
and the clock's ticking.
This is all just speculation
you found online. Sorry.
We need to verify everything,
and there are still plenty of gray areas
- We don't even know what happened to Mani.
- [Ida] Yes, we do.
He spent a few years at home
but ran away at 15.
Lived on the street,
had mental health issues,
and froze to death in 2006.
There. Not so bad
for info found online, right?
Well, from now on,
you three let the police do their jobs.
[sighs]
I'll do some digging
and send Derevko's description.
In the meantime, I don't wanna see you.
If I do, I'll arrest you
for obstruction of justice.
- [gasps] I love her.
- [scoffs]
- Hey, what happened to you yesterday?
- [coughs]
Nothing. I breathed in too much smoke,
like I said.
But why didn't they put you
on hyperbaric oxygen therapy
or a ventilator?
Wow. You should have finished med school.
Ow. Okay, let's take a photo.
What? Uh, hold on.
You really want to immortalize this?
[scoffs] We can't sit around and wait
for Derevko to strike again, right?
We'll make him come to us.
- He just needs to know where we are.
- What?
Duck face!
LÉVIONNA FESTIVAL, HERE WE COME!
- [excited chatter]
- [upbeat percussion music playing]
- What? You're supposed to be on du Four.
- Denis was attacked.
- What?
- He's not hurt. His nurse is in a coma.
- What happened?
- [sighs] I'm not sure.
He identified his attacker,
and I've put out an APB.
I don't believe this.
And what about Jaro Gatsi?
I spoke to him,
but I think we're mistaken.
Gio, his DNA is on the body.
- [sighs]
- [son] Daddy! Mommy!
- [Erwan] Having fun, champ?
- [Gio] Hey! You good? Hi!
[music ends]
- [bell tolling]
- [crowd exclaims]
[crowd cheering]
One, two
Good people of Lévionna,
welcome to the festival!
[crowd cheers]
I won't be long.
I just wanna thank you all
for being here today.
[crowd cheers]
- [Roméo] Where did Ida go?
- [mayor] I have to thank the sponsors
I don't know, but we have to find Derevko.
- Let's split up.
- Okay.
And a huge thank you
to our corporate sponsor, Arcacia.
[crowd booing]
Who contributed financing
for a portion of the festival,
and who are helping transform
the town's image.
[jeering continues]
And so now, it's time to celebrate!
[crowd continues cheering]
- [pop music playing]
- Thank you.
Pardon me. Sorry.
[ominous music playing]
You got a problem?
I don't know. Why don't you tell me, huh?
- Sorry. I'm a little on edge.
- Yeah, I can see that.
Is it because of your new best friend?
The guy accused of killing
the girl they found in the lake?
Pfft. That's bullshit.
We're trying to find the guy who did it.
Oh, okay. You're a detective now.
Hey, just because I'm not a doctor
doesn't mean
that I'm some redneck idiot, okay?
Roméo, I never said that.
I don't want you getting hurt. That's all.
And why do you suddenly care? Huh?
Look, I don't know.
I guess I just care about you.
Why'd you ignore me since coming back?
Look, I'm not ignoring you.
It's just that things
at the hospital are busy now.
- That's all.
- [Roméo] Oh shit.
Uh, listen. I have to go,
but, uh, we'll talk later.
[suspenseful music playing]
[Roméo] Excuse me.
- Your costume's amazing.
- [Malia] Daddy!
Honey, what are you doing here?
Look who I found waiting for you
at the front door.
Hi, Jaro.
Clearly, we need to figure things out.
Since she's calling you
behind my back, we should talk.
Yeah, but why didn't you call me first?
It was a spur-of-the-moment thing.
We were visiting my folks in Lyon,
and I thought we'd swing by.
- Aren't you happy to see your daughter?
- Obviously, I'm happy, Anaïs.
It's just not a great time right now.
Jaro, I saw him. He's here.
What's going on?
Marie, take them back to the farm.
Right away.
- All right.
- [Malia] No! I wanna stay with you!
I'm so sorry, baby. But it's not possible.
Jaro, what are you doing?
I can't explain right now.
But you can't stay. It's too dangerous.
Dangerous?
You got yourself
in another mess, didn't you?
I don't even wanna know.
Come on, Malia. We're leaving.
[Malia] Daddy! I don't wanna go.
[somber music playing]
[Jaro] We need to find Ida.

- The mayor is complicit!
ELIAS DESERVES THE TRUTH
He's bribed while they poison us!
[man] Sellouts!
[Vincent] The police
and the mayor, they're all corrupt!
They're lying to us!
They're lying to all of us!
We're just lab rats to them!
We have to act before it's too late!
For our families! For our children!

Gio, Sofiane, we have to stop this.
