Fortier (2001) s03e08 Episode Script

What are you doing here? - What are you doing here? - l start at 6:00 a.
m.
You only start at 8:00 a.
m.
l'm thinking of Linda Bedard.
l'm sure she's still alive.
Just wait.
Wait until you see what l found.
l went over them one by one.
This letter's from Luke.
Her dad calls him ''the little punk.
'' lt reads: ''Dear Pascale, ''l love you a lot, ''There's a song in my head, ''and butterflies in my stomach when l think of you.
'' We already knew that.
Hold on.
''Pascale, ''my beautiful flower, l'd love you if you liked.
'' ''lf you liked.
'' Grammar mistake.
Anyway ''Give me a chance.
''l know you prefer Luke, but l count too.
'' Signed ''Sebastian.
'' That's it for the kids.
Here's Rouleau's CV.
He started out as a regular cop in the '80s Bachelor, no kids.
Solitary type, but always dates young women.
Secretaries, interns, waitresses.
He may have slept with Linda Bedard.
lt's possible.
She's a 20-year-old masseuse Anne We've been here for hours.
We're watching, nothing's happening.
Massage parlors don't open at 4:00 a.
m.
We should've told Johnson that.
Wake him up.
You call him.
- Don't feel like it.
- Your idea.
You agreed.
We're breaking an unwritten rule here.
lt's damn serious.
Boss doesn't know we're staking out one of Rouleau's ex-cops.
Losing your nerve? lt's not that.
Look.
What time is it? At 10:00 a.
m.
, you'll go in.
Where? ln there? - He doesn't know you.
- Doesn't know my face, but The only woman who's touched me in 20 years is Rita.
They know me.
Go, or we're wasting our time.
Cripes.
What are we doing? We may solve this if you tell me something new.
lt's up to you.
lf you give me your gun, it'll really be up to me.
You just made your first big mistake.
You're really taking a weight off my shoulders.
lf there's one boss too many, you're it.
l surprised an intruder, he reacted, l shot him.
End of story.
And waited seven hours to report it? Who'd believe you? Shock.
My team knew l was coming here.
You didn't tell your team.
You wouldn't tell anyone.
Not in this situation.
This kind of thing stays between squad bosses.
There's everything to lose, if you're not sure.
But here and now, you can't be sure.
lf you were, you'd say all you know.
l didn't tell them l was doing a search.
l said l was going to have a beer with you.
Women are dying all around you.
Linda Bedard ring a bell? Why? ls she dead? You must think l'm an idiot.
That's the best lead you can come up with? Me? Those loonies you deal with are getting to you.
The simplest theory is always the most likely.
Unless you have another to propose l'm helping you.
You're helping me.
l do know Linda.
l don't deny it.
l'm not the only one.
She has other clients.
Pascale Dubé's party was just down the street.
So? You never talk to your neighbors' kids? Renée Desmarais? Nathalie Crete? Lynn Rousseau? All coincidences? So you're about to charge me.
lt's a big gamble, Johnson.
You're risking your life.
You took off without a word.
l called you.
When you take off like that, l don't know what you're thinking.
l wanted to see the woods again.
Any idea what you're looking for? Sebastian's letter.
What? Teenage love What about it? Let's go back to their hangout, the bowling alley.
We were working on Rouleau.
Sebastian was in love with Pascale, but never said so.
Pascale's parents don't know.
That bothers me.
Gertrude.
Gertrude That's a pretty name.
Been working here long? Four years.
Four years Does it pay all right? - Depends on the client.
- Oh, yeah? - The boss doesn't pay you? - Sure, but Oh, my goodness - What? - You're all in knots.
Knots? First guy l've seen with knots in his butt.
l'm not used to getting massages.
lt takes at least 10 times before you feel anything.
l feel it, all right.
After about 10 times, l can get an idea.
l mean, l get to know your body, then l can make it real good.
l'm the kind of guy who - You should shut up and relax.
- Sure.
l just like to talk while you massage me.
A friend of mine brought me here.
His girl was What's her name again? A little brunette - Andrea? - That's not it Oh, Cristina She doesn't work here anymore.
Really They'll be looking for me by now.
ls it your day off? They'll be looking for you, too.
You came by the SAS to talk to me.
So talk.
- l didn't say to come here.
- l'm here now.
lt's more private.
Why did you want to talk to Fortier? l hope you aren't starting that again.
Are you nuts? Your friends What are they like? - Who? - Whoever.
- Luke? - Okay, Luke.
He's l mean, he was Pascale's boyfriend.
But it wasn't really going well.
How do you mean? She wanted to take it slow, but he didn't.
Luke wanted sex, but she didn't? - Something like that.
- Okay.
As for Sebastian What about him? He doesn't talk much.
No girlfriend But we like him.
He's cool.
Here he comes.
l'll take over.
Hi.
lt's good old-fashioned rape.
The girls were killed by a sadist who raped them first.
So? Penetration.
No DNA.
A clean job.
Even more than Pascale Dubé.
Fortier's right.
Pascale's different from the three girls.
l'll send the report.
You really liked Pascale.
Am l wrong? Yes.
Tell me the truth.
What happened after the party? This product is lemon-scented.
Like on Pascale's stomach.
lt wasn't me.
Who was it? Who was it? Okay.
Come on.
l didn't think he that he wanted to kill her? Who do you mean? Luke.
Two people work with this product.
You and Gabrielle.
How did this product get on her body if Luke killed her? Pascale left the party alone.
Luke followed her.
You followed Luke.
- He just wanted to have fun.
- You saw him jump her? He took her into a corner.
They started making out, but he was rough with her.
She didn't want to.
She fought him.
Go on.
Then what happened? l don't know why He freaked out.
He squeezed her neck.
Then it was like lt's like he didn't know that He took off.
Pascale was She was asleep.
No, Sebastian.
You know she wasn't asleep.
You felt a strong desire.
You couldn't resist doing what you'd been dreaming of.
Afterwards when you realized she wasn't asleep, you panicked and took her into the woods.
Tell me just one thing Did you see anyone else that night? Will l go to jail? l don't know.
You, l doubt it, but Luke probably.
Did you see anyone? lt's important.
lf you're scared, l'll keep it a secret.
Did you see anyone in the woods that night? l saw a man, but it was dark.
Did you reach the guys? No answer.
l advised Central.
And the boss? His wife's looking for him.
He didn't come home.
Right Okay.
lt was Luke who murdered Pascale.
Forensics just called.
lt was a sadist for the other girls.
And we don't know where Johnson is.
Even his wife doesn't know.
You deal with Luke.
l recognized you.
Answer the question.
Where's Cristina? They're masseuses, not slaves.
They're free to leave anytime.
Funny, she left just after my visit.
You're on thin ice.
With all the cops who come here for freebies Go on We might have some questions to ask you.
You operate under Rouleau's protection? This isn't your mandate, guys.
Gertrude's right.
You'll be embarrassing a lot of people.
What's our mandate? Nutcases.
Exactly.
So give us a tour.
Looks like the end of the Lynn.
Move it.
l've been wondering about Fortier for three years.
The answer was working with me.
You shouldn't do that.
You'll get shot.
Poodle's guys are probably here.
Today's the day.
lt's up to you.
- You know it wasn't me.
- lt was you.
You know it, and l know it.
Here to replace Johnson? There's some things you can't do in my place.
Take his place.
l've nothing to lose.
Neither do l.
- l'm not leaving.
- You have no say.
You'll have to kill me, then it's all over.
Just go.
So she told you.
You can't always believe what women say.
Especially if they're crazy.
Who'll tell him? You or me? Cute, isn't she? At 20, she was even better.
Gorgeous blonde hair, pretty green eyes Naive, but a bit of a tease.
She wants it, but she likes to be dominated to have fun.
Shut up.
lt's too much for you You're too sensitive.
You've got no balls.
She came to me, didn't she? Now leave.
l'll count to three.
Three! Move it! You play hockey? - With the old downtown guys.
- Of course Always good to stay in shape.
Don't know where Linda Bedard is? l guess she left without saying goodbye, too? That's not nice of them.
Rouleau ls he one of your old buddies? He comes here often? Once in a while.
To check out the staff? Nothing better to do? Don't move.
Stay there.
Where's Linda Bedard? You find girls for Rouleau? l don't give a damn that you're a cop.
We're taking him in.
Move it, baby.
Johnson.
Get me Lefebvre.
l didn't think it would happen this way.
You never tried to talk to me.
Thought you'd given up.
Given up Sure Get down.
We all make mistakes when we're young.
l don't know what that means.
You never made any? You took my youth from me.
You stole it.
You killed me, took what was most precious to me.
Your virginity? The desire to live.
Since you touched my life, all l want is revenge.
lt's worse than that.
l am that revenge.
lt's my only purpose.
l hear otherwise.
They say you're good.
l wasn't good.
l was waiting for you.
So you've got me.
What now? Tell me where you put Linda Bedard.
All that's left for me to do is to kill you, then kill myself.
l've nothing left to lose.
True.
Yes Yes Fine.
One moment.
l'll be right back.
The room's free.
And Johnson We don't know where he is.
Seen him? Up that way.
We're going to have a talk.
What about Fortier? No news either.
Parent lost her.
l don't appreciate being the last to know.
You don't investigate a colleague without advising me.
l'm going back in.
- This stays between bosses.
- You know the game.
No reporters.
We keep this between us.
But l'm not leaving Fortier alone with him.
Oh, yes you are lt's her choice and it's her job.
And it's good therapy after Washington.
l don't know what you're up to.
You're inexperienced.
City police isn't like the Feds.
You don't know the ropes.
l don't know the ropes, but l'm your boss because l can judge men.
ln the present circumstances, which you created, the best man to avoid a catastrophe is a woman.
Ever screw a dead woman? What were looking for at the party? Fresh game? We could come out of this alive.
lt's up to you.
Let's clarify exactly what happened.
For who? l never touched Pascale Dubé.
l know.
lt's not your style.
You like your girls alive.
You want to see the fear in their eyes.
Hard to humiliate a dead woman.
lt's the end of your career as a shrink.
l don't have your education, but my experience tells me when you mix work and your private life, it's the beginning of the end.
You're a sadist, Rouleau.
lf l'm a sadist, you're taking a big risk.
Nothing left to lose.
Take off your clothes.
Take off your clothes.
Look me in the eye.
l'll undress, give you the upper hand.
l'll be vulnerable, like l was back then.
But you won't see me afraid, not for a second.
You won't be in charge You'll have to kill me to get off, because you won't see fear in my eyes.
l guarantee it.
Where is Linda Bedard? l don't know.
Cristina? l don't know.
Which cops are in your club? You're screwing up big time.
No one here gets blow jobs from your girls.
We might all be nuts, but we don't keep company with dirty cops.
Want to hear a good one? We're picking up Rouleau.
You might not talk about him, but you bet he'll talk about you.
The girls might make passes, but l don't force them to.
They do it when they feel like it.
lf the client pays, it's his problem.
Give up.
You won't get what you want.
You turn me on.
l don't turn you on.
Guys like you, sadistic rapists, get excited under certain conditions.
Conditions that don't exist here.
l told you, you won't get them from me.
Wanna bet? l bet you won't leave here alive.
Either you kill me, or l'll be spitting on your grave.
- A few times.
- That's not what l asked.
Did you introduce Linda to Rouleau? lt didn't happen like that.
Rouleau came by.
l didn't introduce them.
They met.
Did Rouleau know Cristina? He might've seen her a few times.
Cristina Did she see him? What should l say? - That they were screwing? - Sure, while you're at it.
They'd started to.
Would you know her phone number? Address? Maybe she's back from vacation.
Hope so, for your sake.
lt's at the parlor.
Ever heard of Renée Desmarais? Nathalie Crete doesn't ring a bell? Lynn Rousseau doesn't either? lf you say no, that's fine.
You know the routine.
Just don't piss me off.
Rouleau talked to me about girls a few times.
What did he say? Look, guys Rouleau's business He'll probably screw me, but l Will you sign a statement? Depends on you.
We can be understanding, if you are.
He didn't say anything specific, but the way he talked about the girls He had a strange attitude.
Strange enough to kidnap girls, then kill them? Let's say l wouldn't let him date my daughter.
You have just one weakness.
You haven't many weaknesses, but l have a major advantage: You're more scared of dying than l am.
l'm not afraid of dying.
You are.
And that is the most perfect paradox between victim and attacker.
The pain you caused, hardened me.
l've become stronger than you.
Now, as a result, your fate is in my hands.
No it isn't.
Yes because l can help you.
l'd find it funny too, if l were you.
A girl who was raped You could've reported it.
Report a cop? No one would've believed me.
Girls raped by criminals are hard enough to protect.
You took advantage of that.
Treated yourself.
Justice always prevails.
We should hope so.
Until an opportunity like this comes along.
You didn't think l'd come.
Admit it.
You didn't think l'd switch with Johnson.
Know what the problem is with other girls like me? They're not all as crazy as l am.
Because you have to be crazy Yes You have to be crazy to confront a guy like you.
But it's the only way out, the only way to get even.
You'll get even.
You'll have me charged with murder.
lt wasn't me.
What are you asking? You want to make a deal? ls that it? l didn't kill Pascale Dubé or the other girls.
My only crime was you.
But you don't want to believe me.
You want to get even for what happened.
You didn't just rape me.
You broke me.
You took away my pleasure, my desire to love and be loved.
You did all that in one fell swoop.
You think l'd make a deal with you now? l'm not asking you to.
But if you don't, you'll never get back what l took from you.
Never.
You can't really believe it was me.
lt's impossible.
One murder solved.
Two murderers.
Fortier was right.
ln three minutes, my guys go in.
Make up your mind.
Yes or no? You're acting like a bad cop in a B-movie.
You give me no other choice.
l'm the one who's going in.
You'll do as l say.
- l'm not letting her die.
- Neither am l.
l didn't hire Rouleau, or you either.
But l promise you: Whether she lives or dies, l'm cleaning house, starting with you, Johnson.
On what date? A year ago.
Any girls before that? Don't think so.
Why one year ago? Ask him.
l don't know.
Linda Bedard's body.
lt wasn't with the others.
That either, l He doesn't tell me everything.
Can l go? Stay in touch.
Right.
lt's a deal.
Twenty-four hours.
l want you here tomorrow morning.
Right.
l'll be here.
They say even killers have mothers.
l don't think rapists do.
l was drunk.
Problem is, you sobered up, but l still bear the scars, on my body and in my head.
l have the evidence.
You knew the victims, and Sebastian saw you digging.
He saw me? Yes.
Pascale Dubé lt was him.
Him and another kid.
When Sebastian dragged Pascale's body into the woods, you were digging Linda's grave.
You saw each other.
Until l made him spit it out, it was your secret.
He may have seen me that night, but not there.
And l wasn't digging.
What difference does it make? What difference does it make? You were in the neighborhood that night.
You knew the three dead girls.
And there's me.
lt's not going very well for you this time.
lt's not going well.
l won't save you your job as a cop.
That's for sure.
