Episode 6

1
They took my child! Do you understand?
They took Matei.
I don't have time to get arrested.
I can't stay here! Please!
You have to help me! Please!
Vasile, you know me!
No!
Lars will come at ten o'clock.
Bring the car around.
We'll make a stop on the way.
Yes, Boss.
Listen.
Did you lose something?
I thought I left it here somewhere.
Well, don't leave it here.
Get out of here!
Are you done?
Halfway there. Almost halfway.
Hurry up already!
We're going to miss the exchange.
Maybe it's for the best.
A lot of people died
for our cause, don't you think?
Luca, Florin, Bolt Nut…
Hold on! Now you're thinking
about their dead too?
In war, when their people die,
you rejoice.
War?
Is this a war to you?
What do you think this is? A game?
It's war.
And for you, the stakes are high.
You need to fight to get your life back.
To clear your name.
Who cares about my name?
The children I never had
'cause I've been busy playing vigilante?
I'm so stupid.
Even more for following you.
Wait here.
We're screwed.
I need to warn you--
Show me!
Leave us.
They're going to pay.
All of them.
Come on.
Listen to what I'm going to say.
Maybe you change your mind.
How nice.
Mr. Prosecutor.
So?
Did you find Luca's killer?
Did you arrest her?
If not, I could tell you her name.
No need for that. I know it.
Camelia Serbu.
How convenient. The girlfriend did it.
Most cases are the same, Miss.
Murderers have killed for the same reason
since the world begun.
My work gets boring sometimes.
Right?
Well, let's shake you out of that boredom.
Do you know what my job is?
Yes. Something in IT.
Something in IT.
I recently stumbled across a computer.
A really old one, but a piece of art.
You know what I found on it?
Lists.
With people. And the amounts of money
that those people received.
Look… See?
Money is one of those reasons
that people have killed for
ever since the world begun.
And your name was on those lists.
If you want to act crazy, I don't have
the time nor the patience for this shit.
The money is from Nicolae Tănase.
Lots of payments.
Paid over many years.
All right.
I get it now.
You're not acting crazy.
You really are crazy.
This explains a lot.
Your babbling is going
to amuse the judges.
- If I were you, I'd be careful.
- Wait, I'm not done.
- Last night you were at Tănase's.
- You're insane!
I saw you. On the CCTV at Tănase's villa,
where my son is hostage. Did you know?
Bribery is one thing.
But kidnapping children?
Good luck at your trial, Miss.
Excuse me, can I speak to you?
- This thing with the child--
- The woman is crazy. Go figure!
Luca seemed like a sane guy. But her?
What did he see in her?
She says her child is missing.
We should call the school--
Wait! Let's make this clear.
Nothing she said makes sense. She's crazy.
Good.
Call me if she starts making sense.
The child has a grandmother.
He is taken care of. He's fine.
Matei is not with my mom.
They beat her and put her in a hospital.
You can check. He's not at home.
He's not at school. Check everything.
I'm begging you! I'm not crazy.
How can I check that?
I'm running out of time! Help me!
- There's no more time.
- Shut up!
I believe you. Do exactly as I say.
EXI
- Yes.
- Serbu has escaped.
- What?
- She hit Coman and ran away.
I was just there.
- What do we do?
- Put an APB on her. Now!
Good news, I hope.
We had Camelia Serbu locked up.
She escaped.
Good thing, you idiot.
She's supposed to be meeting me.
Without her, I'm locked out
of ten million euros!
I'll help. Be careful with the boy.
You mind your own business.
Let that woman get to my place.
Fucking asshole.
How come you always find a way out, doll?
One of my many talents. Go ahead.
- Ten o'clock, Royal Ballroom. You know it?
- Yes, I do.
Listen to me! When you find
Camelia Serbu, you let me know.
You do not engage her
without my say so. Understood?
Understood, then?
Bring him here.
I heard
something… about Crisi.
Who's Crisi?
Crisi
was my daughter.
The one that I could really trust.
And the one
that was killed…
by your mother.
You knew about this, yes?
And you said nothing.
I had to find out
from a piece of shit cop?
They're here.
Take him away.
Where the hell is that slut?
Hello. Tunari, please.
As fast as you can.
All cars, be advised. Camelia Serbu
is in a taxi, heading for Tunari.
Wait.
Something happened.
Wait!
Now. Go!
Go!
You check it, Dracu. You know this stuff.
Can't get enough of it, right?
Golescu just put an APB out
on Luca's fiancée.
Every cop in town is looking for her.
Hello.
Cami went to meet Tănase on her own
to give him the money for the deal.
Any idea where they could meet?
She was seen in Tunari.
- Tunari.
- His ballroom is there.
It's his ballroom. We're going there.
Ion, we don't stand a chance on our own.
But we would, with your guys.
- I really don't know how this happened--
- How a prisoner got away from you?
I'm not surprised.
I saw your last evaluations.
They don't look so good.
Maybe I should send you
to a psych evaluation.
You know I'm fine.
You need to prove that you're fine.
You're either with me or against me.
Got that?
All units, concerning Camelia Serbu,
a wanted fugitive.
She has been seen near Royal Ballroom.
That's Tănase's ballroom.
Tell them to keep their distance
and stay put until I get there.
Please, I'm running late.
Can we hurry up a little?
Thank you.
Daddy.
Do you think I don't know
what you two are up to?
You're no daughter of mine.
Are you crazy?
You snake.
Stop here, across the road.
Welcome, doll.
I've got the key.
I need to see my boy now.
Are you ready?
Okay, stop it.
You can hug later. I want my money.
I'm going to need a laptop.
- How long will this take?
- Just a second.
What the hell are you doing?
Just wait a second!
Okay.
Done.
The crypto is back in your account.
Log in and check.
Pay the guy.
Did you call for backup?
Tell them not to storm in.
There's a lot of armed people.
Matei is in there.
Go outside and tell them to wait.
Right…
We're leaving.
- Hold on.
- No.
You got your money. That was the deal.
Until I found out you killed my daughter.
You killed my boyfriend.
You took my son. I'd say we're even.
That's not how it works.
Yes, it is.
Check your account. Come on.
When you logged into your wallet,
I got access to your accounts.
Empty again.
No sirens, boys.
First of all, what's going on here?
Second, what are you doing here?
Tănase, Tili, his daughter
and Dracu, his right hand, are inside.
Camelia too. I think she's in danger.
She's a suspect that fled from lockup.
We sit tight.
Until we know what's going on,
we can't risk civilian lives.
They're armed.
We have to go in. There's a child!
I said we wait.
Don't worry. You'll get your money
as soon as we leave this place.
You fucking slut!
Hold on. Let me get this straight.
What are you so worked up for?
Me?
Or those eight million euros?
Don't you dare point that gun at me!
I'm tired of always being second best.
Crisi is gone.
You're stuck with me.
Deal with it.
Shoot her.
Shoot her!
You piece of shit.
I made you.
I raised you.
I raised you as my own.
This is how you repay me?
I told them not to come.
How the fuck did the cops get here?
Give me the gun.
Gunshots. Go in! Go!
- Stop!
- Police!
- Matei!
- Freeze!
They took my child!
- Mom!
- Police! Freeze!
Stop! On the ground!
Gun! On the ground!
On the floor!
Face down!
Stop this goddamn chaos!
I told you I'd be the end of you.
Who the hell are you?
- Get him a doctor!
- Go after Tili Tănase!
- She took Matei! Go after her!
- Get them out!
Move!
Help! I'm back here. Help me!
You think he's--
- I fucking hope so!
- Help!
Really? You're sad now?
He had a bullet with his name on it.
It's his fault
that bullet came from my gun.
The king is dead.
Long live the queen.
You think I can't handle the business?
- Well…
- Well, what?
That's a job for a man.
A job for a man, you say?
- You think I can't handle it?
- No.
Yes!
See?
I just need to get that eight million
back from that slut.
You're gonna hear things about me.
The cops are going to say
that I lied to you.
That I'm not a cop anymore.
- But that's because I was framed--
- I…
I don't care.
Please, believe me, I'm on your side.
We're going to find Matei.
So you ran
a completely unauthorized operation.
With a man fired from the force.
It woudln't work otherwise.
Roman was always a good cop.
Honest. Wouldn't take bribes…
Tănase has men everywhere.
Even in the Police.
That's a very serious accusation,
Mr. Prosecutor.
Sorry, former Prosecutor.
- You knew about this?
- We told the Superintendent yesterday.
We only found out today
that you're involved.
Given the situation
and the fact that we didn't know
who to trust inside,
I chose to act alone.
We're in a hierarchy here,
Superintendent Tatu.
- You should have told me.
- Indeed. I'm sorry.
But in the end,
we got our hands
on drugs worth a few million euros.
I'd say that's not bad, right?
And you say Tănase has cops
on his payroll?
Do you have names?
All the names are on a list
on Bank's old laptop.
The list is gone.
We checked. No files, nothing.
We got him not only on corruption.
Roman recovered material evidence
that ties Tănase
to a murder case.
His DNA on a dead body.
He's not getting away.
- How long have you been after him?
- A long time.
Since he ordered the assassination
of my good friend.
Doru Serbu.
Camelia Serbu's father?
So 2013. You pushed on since then
just to prove a point?
Yes. And to neutralize him.
Well, you did neutralize him.
He's in the hospital
with a hole in his chest.
- And a busted kidney too.
- It could have been worse.
I, for one, wouldn't have shed a tear.
And the missing child?
If we find Tili Tănase, we find the child.
And I really don't think
we should arrest Cami now,
when her boy has been taken.
I'll think about it.
You may go.
- What do I do?
- Let them go. I'll handle them.
Mr. Prosecutor.
Whether my father lives or dies,
he's not coming home. Got it?
- And we carry on as before?
- We carry on as before.
They're releasing us?
How did you do it?
Let's just say
I can still pull a few strings.
Thanks. So you pulled some strings.
Now what?
We'll just magically forget
you've lied to my mother and I for years?
I just wanted to right a wrong.
The death of my friend. Your father.
Come on. Let's go.
Just a second, please. You need
to sign here and on the next page.
What are you doing to find my son?
Every cop is looking for Tili Tănase.
Really? Why don't you call her?
You have her number, right?
Come on, before he changes his mind.
MUNICIPAL POLICE
Wait.
Wait a second.
What now?
You go see my mother.
Check on her.
She deserves to know the truth, right?
We'll meet you there.
We'll go by my place.
I need clean clothes.
Okay. Well, take my car then.
I'll be all right.
Change of plans.
THE BOY FOR MY 8 MILLION.
JUST YOU AND BONES.
No matter what happens, Matei gets away.
If you have to choose, you choose him!
- Is that clear?
- Yes.
Is that clear?
Yes!
Check the glove compartment.
They're waiting with open gates.
Come on.
Where's my boy?
Mom?
Mom!
Where's my money?
Log into your wallet.
It's okay. I'm not leaving without you.
Enough.
I'll transfer it back.
But first, he leaves with Matei.
It's the only way.
There's another way.
I can cut your son to pieces
in front of you
until you give me my money back.
And you, drop the gun.
Drop it!
Kick it away.
What will it be?
Are you giving me my money,
or do I start counting down
on your son's fingers?
I don't understand
why you keep that pointed at me.
If I die, you won't see that money again.
Just like I won't see Luca again.
Just like you won't see your sister again.
- Do you want to know how she died?
- No, thank you.
Not interested?
Yeah.
I guess you wanted her gone.
You know what?
Fuck that money!
I'll blow your head off. I'm done.
Wait a second!
Mom!
Matei, run!
Kill the boy!
Not her!
Give me my money.
I will.
Right away.
There was something else on that laptop.
Your father's bribe list.
Very important people.
Politicians, cops.
If I don't log into the account every day,
that list goes to Europol.
So as long as I live,
these people can sleep well at night,
and so can you.
Go on.
Get your money back.
I don't care what you do
from now on, but we're done.
You have eight million reasons
to leave me alone.
I'm leaving you alone.
Matei. Baby!
Come on, we're home. Come on.
- Let's go to a hospital. Please.
- No. I can handle it.
I can handle it.
Stay with Matei. I'll go alone.
- Promise?
- Promise.
Come on, baby.
Mom, who was that mean girl?
My dear…
That girl had very big problems.
When they have big problems,
some people become mean.
We're never going to see her again.
She's out of our lives for good.
I miss Luca.
I miss Luca too. Very much.
But we have each other.
I have you, and you have me.
And we'll be just fine.
We'll just take it one step at a time.
ONE WEEK LATER
MUNICIPAL POLICE BUCHARES
Good afternoon.
Thank you all for coming here today,
when we announce a major step forward
in our fight against organized crime.
Here's how things are now.
Unfortunately,
you'll have to go to prison.
You can name people in court,
tell them how you managed
to corrupt the system.
But you'll end up in prison anyway.
You piece of shit.
Wouldn't it be better there?
I'll get you a new kidney too.
It's better than dying in the showers
with a shiv in your guts.
This decisive victory is the result
of many months of hard work.
It was achieved through the concerted
efforts of multiple state institutions.
- What's that?
- A small present.
In case you decide
you want your dad locked up for good.
This complex operation that involved
undercover policemen and special forces
led to the complete annihilation
of a dangerous organized crime group.
You're under arrest
for suspicion of conspiracy,
attempted obstruction of justice
and illegal use of police forces.
Tatu, you're really lucky
that there wasn't a bloodbath.
You've endangered civilians and agents
by disobeying orders, ignoring procedure.
We're starting a criminal investigation.
You are suspended effective immediately.
- Take him!
- Is it a joke?
Come on.
I'm your Superintendent!
What are you doing?
I would also like to thank those who,
through their professional ethics,
courage and commitment, have played
a part in the success of this operation.
Thank you very much. Have a good day.
