Falcon (2012) s01e03 Episode Script

Fear's inevitable.
Inevitable?
I fight the bull.
You fight the murderer with a gun.
That's what we do.
Two years of a bad marriage give me
no claim on what will always
be your father's house.
Now at least we can end it.
How long? You and the judge.
None of your business.
Everything is beginning to collide,
Consuelo - but not connect.
Are you sure you want to
sleep with a suspect?
Only this one.
Ladies and gentleman, Seville's
newest Torero.
I think my nephew is a target.
Rafa!
My condolences.
More than ever I'm convinced
the truth lies in the past.
The killer's got your father's
journals?
He stole them
from my father's studio.
"I killed him
because my son was not my son."
That is not true.
Just like the nudes.
You were created by my father!
We're brothers.
See what he made you do - Papa.
You were his five year old assassin.
Your whole life is a lie.
Rafa?
And why choose me
to hear your confession?
Not many survived me?
You did, Virgilio Guzman,
You just refused to die.
This is going to be dangerous -
do you understand?
There are powerful people who
want me to stay silent.
My name is Raphael Baena.
I know where the money came from
and who gave the orders,
and when I die I'll be going
straight to hell.
You should lock up.
I could have been anybody.
How can you carry on living here?
How can you bear it?
Manuela's been in touch with me.
Wanted me to recommend a good
lawyer. You destroyed the paintings.
By rights, they belonged to her.
And she's going to start legal
proceedings for this house.
Did you recommend someone to her?
Yes.
The only time you ever look even
vaguely interested in life is
when you're surrounded by corpses.
Am I the only person that
finds that disturbing?
Probably not.
I'm sure there's others.
You should meet and form a club.
Manuela is ill, Ines. Her health,
she's fragile. Don't encourage her.
Oh, now you're concerned
about Manuela's health?
Shame you didn't think about that
when you were destroying the family
name and reputation.
It was all lies. And you just had to
pursue the truth at all costs.
Was there something specific you
came here for?
I'm getting married.
Anything to say about that?
Anything at all?
I hope you'll be happy.
Bastard.
You wouldn't rather be transferred?
After everything?
Wherever I go, everyone will know.
Seville is my home.
But the personal distress.
Are you
Am I psychologically fit
for the rigorous demands of leading
a homicide department?
It's been some months. I wouldn't be
here if I wasn't ready.
Alright.
But I'll be watching.
I wouldn't expect anything less.
The integrity of the department
is paramount.
We need a storm.
Fucking heat.
This tastes like shit.
40 years in this job.
40 bastard years.
Where's the dignity?
Where's the respect?
They love you, Alberto.
How did it go with Lobo?
Good. Holed up in that bloody house,
climbing the walls. Not healthy.
What you need is work, so much work
you haven't got time to think.
Who did they get in?
Ramirez has been moulding your chair
to the shape of his own arse.
I think he reckoned he'd be
there for a little while yet.
Alright?
I will be.
Back into the snake pit with you,
then.
Go with god, my child.
Cristina.
How many times do
I have to tell you? Knock first.
May I come in?
(PHONE RINGS)
Homicide.
(RADIO) Raphael Baena, construction
magnate found dead at his house.
No sign of forced entry.
Looks like suicide.
Local police are in attendance.
Consuelo speaking.
Hello?
I saw him through the window.
He was just lying there.
Can I ask why you're here,
Senor Ortega?
Yes, Baena wrote to me.
I wanted to ask him about it.
And
What happened to his
face?
What had he done to himself?
His mouth?
I'm sorry.
No, it's alright.
We can talk later.
Make sure he gets home safe.
Was that Pablo Ortega outside?
He called it in.
My mum was crazy about him.
Saw all his movies. Even the
terrible ones.
His brother works for
Baena, doesn't he?
Ignacio Ortega works with Baena.
Financial Director, deputy CEO.
He's a power broker in his own
right.
I'd like a background check.
See if Baena had any military
training.
Military?
The only people I know this
obsessively neat are ex-military.
What do you think of this?
"Please be assured that no
matter what happens,
"provisions have been made for you
and your son.
"My money cannot buy you happiness,
"but it may buy you both some hope
and healing.
"Sincerely yours, Raphael Baena."
Does that mean Pablo's son Simon has
just become incredibly rich?
He's known to us. Narcotics. Theft.
But a multi-millionaire leaves him
money?
I'll put an alert out for him.
His father might know where he is.
Not according to the Scanner
magazines. They're estranged.
I don't read them. My mother does.
About Jose Luis
..you might not know this,
but his daughter's chemo
So if he seems a little tense
Thanks.
Why drink drain cleaner?
He was wearing a morphine pump.
There's a fridge full of Oramorph,
gun in every room.
If he wanted to end it all, he had
plenty of options. Why drain cleaner?
He's full of shit?
Falcon.
Judge Calderon.
Jose Luis, if you could ask
the technicians to come in here,
I want to get inside this
panic room.
Raphael Baena, King of Concrete.
And amateur butcher.
Of all the things I expected to
find in his house, this wasn't it.
Did you know he had cancer?
First I'd heard. I'm not surprised
they kept it quiet.
Cancer doesn't play well with
the shareholders.
Nor does suicide.
Someone else was here.
Based on what?
The spattering of the drain cleaner.
It's all too artistic.
Too much like suicide.
Let's wait on forensics,
but I hope you're wrong.
Murder plays even less well
with the shareholders.
The last thing Seville needs is
for Baena construction to go down.
I'm not wrong.
Can you give us a moment?
Thank you.
I don't want you to hear this from
anyone else but I proposed to Ines.
She said yes.
I hope you'll both be very happy.
We're having a party to
announce it officially.
If you would like to
I'm probably going to be busy.
Yes. Of course.
Has Ignacio Ortega been
informed yet? No, not yet.
You do realise the press is going to
be all over this, don't you?
Are you sure this is right for?
It would have been right at the time.
I didn't ask for time off.
I was told.
Ines's mother is coming to the
party. I've not met her before.
Any advice? Don't mention my name.
Ignacio Ortega's office please?
Fifth floor. Thank you.
Poor Raphael.
I can hardly believe it.
Who found him?
Your brother. My brother?
What was he doing there?
I believe Raphael Baena had
written to him.
Written? Yes.
Your brother had tried to call you,
but you didn't answer your phone.
I was preparing for a meeting,
investors
it was an important day for Raphael
and me.
We'll need to examine Senor Baena's
office, his computer hard drive
Whatever you need. I have to go
to speak with the board.
Raphael's death is a shock to us
all.
Do you know where your nephew
might be found?
My nephew?
I'd like to speak with him.
I'm afraid I don't.
Despite the best will in the world,
despite the best intentions,
Simon is lost to us.
I'll call you back when I know more.
My boss. Letting him
know what's happened.
Want to know what's going on in a
company, ask the receptionists.
They know everything.
Madeleine Flowers.
And you are Javier Falcon.
Homicide. Which makes me
very nervous.
Why should that make you nervous?
The company that I represent has
a major investment here.
I've just flown from New York,
and I was supposed to meet with
Raphael Baena, but instead
I am talking with a homicide cop.
We attend all cases of sudden death.
Yeah, well the words sudden
and death are not making me
any less nervous.
What were you expecting to discuss
with Raphael Baena?
I meet with him,
take the temperature of the company,
analyse any potential risk to us
and the shareholders.
Did you know him?
No.
Is this illness the cause of death?
I can't answer that until we've had
the pathologist's report.
My card. Just in case you need to
get hold of me.
May I have yours? Sure.
Yeah, I know. I know.
He doesn't like the heat.
Eh, do you, Pavarotti?
Ah, yes, my son, Simon.
Before it all went
wrong.
You won't remember me,
but I used to come to
parties at your father's house.
Little Javier. Such a serious boy.
Serious eyes.
Your father used to say that
when you looked at people,
it was like you were
weighing their soul.
Well, long time ago.
When we were kings.
Were you close to Raphael Baena?
No. Not at all.
Why do you think
he wrote you that letter?
That's what I wanted to ask him.
I thought he might have
some news of Simon.
What was meant by hope and healing?
Simon has problems.
Drugs.
He's been in and out of prison
Did Raphael Baena know this?
Very little about my life
has been private.
It's embarrassing for Ignacio
but he's never turned away from me.
He pays for this place,
gives me an allowance.
He's always been there to pick
up the pieces.
And Simon? Your brother said
he was lost to you both.
I think he's here.
Somewhere in Seville.
He hates me.
Why do you say that?
His mother overdosed.
I wasn't faithful, I wasn't
..discreet.
And when she was gone,
I couldn't bear to be in the same
room as my own son.
He looked so much like her.
Ignacio and his wife raised him
as their own. He loved them.
I keep expecting the call to tell me
he's dead.
I don't know.
Listen to me, I might as well
be in the confessional.
If you find Simon,
you will let me know? Of course.
I came as soon as I could.
This must be a shock.
No, no I'm alright. No, I'm
I was just saying to
the inspector here we knew him
as a young boy, remember?
No, I'm afraid I don't but But
then Pablo always had the good
memory out of the two of us.
Raphael wrote you a letter?
What did it say?
There's nothing unusual on Baena's
mobile or landline -
calls to his oncologist,
between himself and Ignacio Ortega,
a call to a restaurant
Home and office computers?
Office computer wasn't tampered
with,
but the home computer was wiped.
Before it was wiped Baena copied
a file from an email,
a large file,
probably onto a memory stick
Who did the file come from?
All I've got is the sender name -
nine circles.
A bit more time
and we should be able to get
the location of the sender
from the IP address.
What's on the file?
There's no way of knowing.
We need the memory stick for that.
Someone who commits suicide knows
what's going to happen.
So does someone in the advanced
stages of a terminal illness,
they know they're going to die.
So this, no matter what happens,
he's writing about something else.
I need to take this.
I'm running a background check.
I'll follow up on the restaurant.
No, no, I'll do that.
Raphael ate here regularly.
Always the same table - quiet, at
the back, out of the way.
He liked rich food that he
couldn't eat.
Not since he got so ill.
I thought his illness was
a closely guarded secret.
Men tell me things
they wouldn't tell anyone else.
Most men tell me things.
It was you earlier, wasn't it,
Javier?
Did you put the phone down
because you didn't want to talk or
because you did?
These past months
..it's not that I didn't want to
I just couldn't
Thank you.
Falcon, Falcon! Falcon!
How did Baena die?
Was it a glass of milk
like your mother?
I'm taking you off this.
Ramirez will work to Calderon. Why?
This tottering goat-fucker here is
as much for you as they are Baena.
We don't want your recent history
raked over again
Everything's been said.
They can rake up all they want,
I've got work to do.
Maybe you should
think about your sister.
Can she take these bastards
door-stepping her again?
Right. It's for the best.
Javier? Called in by someone
walking their dog. Expo site.
Probably a dead tramp.
(RADIO) Simon Ortega apprehended.
Bringing him
into the station for questioning.
Where's my shopping? It's got to
go in the fridge.
The meat. It's got to go in the
fridge.
It'll spoil.
It's got to go in the fridge.
Put his shopping in the fridge.
Go on - do as he asks.
I can't be here right now.
Not right now.
I've got stuff to do.
Important stuff.
If you can let me go, I swear, I
swear on my life, I'll come back
later.
Alright, just give us a minute.
What important stuff do you have to
do, Simon?
I don't even know what I've done!
That's alright, it's alright.
I just want to ask a few questions
and the sooner you can answer them
Ask me, cos I have to get out of
here. Did you know Raphael Baena?
He left you a lot of money.
Can I have a word with you
outside for a moment?
This isn't your case. It's mine.
And I'm the one who'll be
talking to him. OK?
Then I'd like to be present when you
do. It's not your case!
And I won't be questioning him
just yet because he's used.
Wait until he's tearing chunks out
of himself and he'll tell me
whatever I want.
Jose Luis, he had 1,700 Euros
hidden in his shoes.
He's probably dealing.
Or somebody,
maybe Raphael Baena, gave it to him.
The notes are fresh, they're new -
examine the evidence before you
jump to conclusions.
It's not your case, it's mine!
Get back to your dead tramp.
You can't keep me here.
Tell me what I've done.
I just want to see my son!
Tell me what I've done, hmm?
You can't keep me here!
Tell me what I've done.
Simon
Where have you been?
Fuck off, Dad.
Look. They said you had lots of
money on you?
Just fuck off. Fuck off, Dad! Get
the fuck away from me!
Look, I'm just trying to help
I'm only
Yeah he's alive at least.
That's something.
Yes. He's going to be here for a
while. So if you'll come back
No, no, no. I'm not going anywhere.
I'm going to wait for my son.
If you need anything.
Alicia.
Hi.
Poor bastard took some beating.
What's this?
It was inside his shirt.
Your man wasn't itinerant,
because in my experience,
homeless people don't tend to
have their clothes laundered.
OK, contusion to right
side of the face.
There's an impression of knuckles,
I'm saying left handed killer.
Tongue removed at the root, whilst
victim was still alive.
ID? No finger prints, nothing.
Dental - forget it. He wore a
combination of dentures and crowns.
Interesting fact - his teeth didn't
fall out, they were pulled out.
Like these.
He's been tortured.
Or he had a shit manicurist.
How old are these scars?
Not recent, between 30
and 40 years I'd put it?
What did you find
out on Raphael Baena?
Have you been told not to talk
with me, Alicia?
It's not your case, Javier.
Leave it at that.
Alright.
Thank you.
12, 13 years old,
if that. No name, no ID.
She's number seven this year,
unidentified kids murdered
and dumped,
that I've had to sign off on.
And they're the ones that
have been found.
I pledged my whole life to putting
a stop to this shit and now
I can retire, safe in the knowledge
that I've done absolutely fuck all.
Remember all that time
I spent in Marbella?
Working a tip off on trafficking
juveniles?
I got the lead from a gang member
right here in lovely Seville.
He was found with his tongue cut
out. The leads folded,
I spent six weeks chasing ghosts.
Left handed cut?
Left handed cut.
Not a trace of forensics on the body
but I liked Guillermo Molina for it.
The name's familiar.
Oh, you name it, he runs it.
Guns and drugs.
Fascist and proud of it.
An outstanding bag of shit.
Thug for hire.
You have a look at him.
Guillermo Molina?
Can I help you?
Nice neighbourhood.
It is isn't it? It's clean.
Peaceful. White.
Got us to thank for that.
Left to you lot, this place would be
crawling with filth.
You're left handed.
That a crime now, is it?
No, but it's distinctive.
Hey. Shame about your nephew.
Had the makings of a good torero.
You know my ticket was 100 euro
that day?
Don't worry, wasn't
completely wasted.
I went to see a death
and I saw one.
May I speak with your manager?
Can I help?
It won't take long.
Can we turn this up, please?
Thank you for your attention.
Now, I can confirm that
Raphael Baena, CEO
and founder of Baena Construction,
has been found dead in his house.
At this point in time
we can't speculate as to the precise
nature of his death, but there
is no evidence of foul play and
everything points to natural causes.
Thank you.
The names of every male guest who
had their clothes
laundered by housekeeping
in the last two weeks.
Which are kept down here.
Virgilio Guzman.
Nine circles.
I'm sorry?
Dante was led through the nine
circles of hell by Virgil.
I don't follow
You've a guest by the name
of Virgilio Guzman.
I'd like to see
his room and a copy of his passport.
There it is.
He was Chilean.
You'll be discreet, won't you,
Inspector? We have a reputation.
You saw the press conference then?
Was the file retrieved
from Baena's hard drive?
Apparently it's not
a priority any more.
And what did you
get from the background check
to his military training?
Cristina,
what are you not telling me?
Raphael Baena had no military
training.
Raphael Baena died in a hospital
in Toledo from diabetes
on the 31st August, 1984.
But you're not supposed to
know that.
Baena Constructions - the gold
standard international
company built from nothing.
A company that will lead Spain out
of the recession and will
continue
Get out, Javier!
These scars on Baena's face,
plastic surgery, yes?
Just nod or shake your head Alicia,
that way you're not talking to me.
Recent?
Ten years ago?
20? 30?
But the other body, those
scars are older, yes? 40 years.
They might be.
His name was Virgilio Guzman.
He was Chilean.
There was a military coup in Chile 40
years ago. September 11, 1973.
General Pinochet's regime of rape,
torture and murder.
If you were involved in that,
wouldn't you want to change your
face?
This isn't Raphael Baena.
So who was he?
Who told you not to talk to me,
Alicia?
How far up does this go?
Just get out.
The bodies are connected!
Raphael Baena and Virgilio Guzman
were silenced by the same killer.
But you knew that already,
didn't you, Commissioner?
Virgilio Guzman, nine circles. Baena
was emailed from that address seconds
before he died. Why? Who told you to
lie?
What did you just accuse me of?
I'm accusing you of covering up
a double homicide.
What's Baena's real identity?
Who are you protecting?
Someone's pulling your strings. Who
is it? OK. Perhaps we should
Is this what the
Chief Commissioner gets to do?
Bury a few bodies for his friends?
I'm suspending you with
immediate effect.
You will be called to
a disciplinary hearing.
If I get my way,
you will be handing out parking
tickets at the arse end of nowhere
for the rest of your fucking life!
Yeah, fuck you.
(TYRES SCREECH)
Rafa?
(KNOCK ON DOOR)
Who is it?
It's Consuelo.
Hi.
Hello.
Oh my god! What happened?
You should go to the police.
I am the police.
You were the police.
The judge came to my restaurant.
I overheard him telling Ines.
That's why I came.
And what did Calderon have to say?
He was defending you.
I'm not on trial.
Oh, yes you are.
You are your very own judge,
jury and executioner.
I'm going to tell you something
I would have told you a long time
ago if you'd let me.
What?
You are not to blame.
Rafa, the lies your father told,
your mother's death
it's not your fault.
I've hurt my sister.
I've taken everything from her.
You just told the truth. Someone had
to, after all these years.
But Manuela is grieving
and so are you.
You'll have a scar.
There are three people in my life
I care about. Two are my sons.
Take a wild guess who the
other one is.
My number. Use it.
There are other lives besides the
one you are trying so hard to lose.
I think Raphael Baena's death is
suspicious and so do you.
It doesn't matter what I think,
it's not my investigation.
Javier, what are you doing here?
I have to work.
(GUNFIRE)
Javier, I can't let you do this.
Simon. No!
It's the same killer.
He's not working alone.
You're talking about serious
conspiracy here, corruption.
You better be right about this.
I'm certain of it.
