Nolwenn Gakou.
You seen the name of the guy?
Sébastien Brisset.
We need to speak to your son.
I can't help you, sorry.
What are you doing?
You're staying here.
You've lost perspective. You're too close to this.
How long before Mélanie's file is done?
-Two days. -Two days?
Do I prioritize Nolwenn's file?
-No. -Yes.
He makes no sense!
He's all over the place.
What have we done?
Parvana doesn't know who I am. Did you do something?
I brought her in.
Do whatever you need to do, but you get me my wife and son back.
Parvana? You can go back to your apartment.
The police won't bother you.
-Fuck! -Did it work?
Yeah. Everything went back to normal.
This is Éva.
Did you and Flo split up?
-I ruined Nathan and Florence's life. -I'll get them back together.
-Should we order? -Yeah.
Mélou, it's me. Where are you? Don't tell me you've gone running.
-What are you doing with that? -Can you teach me?
I'm scared. What am I to do?
Tell me the future is lousy.
You know what?
The future is lousy.
It's sort of true.
A tsunami in Japan nearly caused a second Chernobyl.
We had a global pandemic that killed several million people.
We had to wear masks. Stay shut up in our homes.
That's not the worst.
We've polluted the planet so much that soon it'll be 40°C in winter.
In Brest.
You're scaring me.
-But good stuff has happened too. -Yeah?
We were world champions again.
So, everything's good?
Everything's good.
-What? -Nothing.
Tell me. I know you.
No.
You think I look old?
Yeah. But it suits you.
Shit. What time is it?
I have to go. Ludo will be wondering where I am.
Won't he be asleep?
I remember sleeping so well back then.
You had to give me a shake to wake me up.
Like that's any different now?
I don't sleep so well since…
See you tomorrow? 1:00 p.m?
Maybe there's no point.
I only have another two days.
No reason why you should get off the hook. No getting out of this crappy future.
I promise.
Stop filming me! Get on with what you're supposed to be doing!
Right. What I'm supposed to do…
So that is Juliette's cot. Or, hold on…
Or Romeo's!
-We're not calling him Romeo. -Romeo's not bad.
-We're not calling him Romeo. -Anyway, it's going to be a girl.
Come.
Fuck.
She's really kicking!
Feel that? That's the kick of a professional soccer player.
Stop going on about soccer.
-Maybe I'll push a ball out of my tummy. -Yeah?
You're so beautiful.
Where have you been?
You scared me.
Nowhere. I went out for some air.
At midnight?
All alone, even though you've just been assaulted.
I couldn't sleep.
-I'm going to crash. I'm exhausted. -Do you realize I was worried?
What's the point of having a cellphone?
I didn't hear it. I'm sorry.
What were you doing on the beach?
You followed me?
You never talk to me anymore. What else am I supposed to do?
What do you want me to say?
You know I went out for some air.
I'm exhausted.
Z. LEVY CASE
RETRIEVING RESULTS
VICTIM ID: ZOÉ LEVY LUDOVIC BÉGUIN
DATE: 07/10/2025 TIME: 1:00 P.M.
DATE: 07/09/2025 TIME: 11:11 P.M.
DATE: 07/09/2025 TIME: 1:01 P.M.
You all right?
No, I don't agree.
She's 14 years old.
You don't spend the night when you're 14.
CAPTAIN DAD
No, Flo, I mean it.
What would we do if something happened to her?
She should think about her high school diploma,
about going shopping with her girlfriends!
Shopping!
About going to the movies, stuff like that.
It's not appropriate at her age.
We'll talk about this again tonight, with her, okay? I have to go.
Was that Florence?
No, it was your mom. Didn't I tell you? We're dating.
It's Romane. She's driving me crazy!
I was out with Flo.
She sneaked out and slept at her little idiot's house.
Can you believe it? Seriously…
Why are you smiling like an idiot?
It makes me laugh to see your face.
You'll see soon enough, wiseass.
CAPTAIN E. LE GOFF
MURDER AT THE QUIMPER POLICE STATION
A CAPTAIN WAS KILLED
YOUNG QUIMPER CAPTAIN BRUTALLY MURDERED
Hi, how are you?
I'm fine, thanks.
-Bruno? -Yeah?
A coffee, please.
Great. Thank you, Your Honor. Have a good day.
Hey! Do you believe in Santa Claus?
Ifrah gave us a warrant?
You heard? We've got a warrant.
Hey, Ludo!
You okay?
Yeah, I'm fine. I was…
going over the Ben Salem file.
Why wasn't she killed in the same way as the others? Here.
Zoé, Mélanie, Nolwenn.
The killer tried to pass his crime off as an accident or suicide.
Why not Yasmine?
We've been asking ourselves that.
Are we really sure it's the same guy?
It's the same fingerprints. What more do you need?
Yeah.
The file mentions a witness who saw Yasmine get into a car.
The witness says he saw boxing gloves on the package shelf of the car.
So, we've checked out all the boxing clubs?
You're worrying me, man. We spent all yesterday afternoon doing that.
Yes. We checked them out.
-Boss! You're back from Rennes? -I'd rather not be.
As I have to take care of everything myself!
Are you joining me in my office or are you waiting for an invitation?
Right. I'm listening.
Why don't we have a suspect yet?
Hold on, the judge took 36 hours to give us a warrant.
Is that an excuse, Leroy?
You have four victims! How many do you need! Six? Eight?
We're checking all the boxing clubs. We have DNA. We're making progress.
All right. Let's get those brain cells working, okay?
Ben Salem knew who he was. A witness saw her get into his car.
Zoé Levy had a date with him.
Nolwenn Gakou opened her front door to him.
What do you think that means?
That they knew him!
Shit, Orsat again.
Since he stopped working on the case, he's been all over it, somehow.
I'm meeting him in an hour.
Why not tell that moron
if he thinks we can solve the case in five days, he's watching too much TV?
Find the guy that links all the victims, and you'll have your man.
Go on.
Go on!
Hello?
He's a pain in the ass, I agree, but he has a point.
-I've been saying they knew the killer. -We have no proof!
The guy targeted them.
Apart from Mélanie, they were all in shitty relationships. He used that.
Nolwenn was getting beaten up. Zoé was going on a string of Tinder dates.
Yasmine was seeing a married man.
A married man?
Have we identified him?
I mean, seriously…
Have we identified him or not?
No, we haven't identified him yet. Try to uncover a 20-year-old affair.
So, they were all vulnerable girls, right?
The guy saw that. He tried to get close to them.
And he killed them.
Wait. No one knew this guy. No one ever crossed paths with him.
Even Zoé Levy's sister had never heard anything about him,
and they were close.
-Do you remember a shady guy around Mél? -No.
There you go!
-If they knew him, he wasn't anyone close. -Or Mélanie didn't tell you about him.
-I don't tell my boyfriend about guys. -I'll stop you right there.
She would have told me.
You sure?
You'd just had a baby. You were both working a lot.
-It might not have been easy. -What are you trying to get me to say?
That I didn't know my wife? That our relationship was shitty?
No, I didn't stay that.
There might have been someone who made a move. You didn't realize.
Kim. I knew Mélanie, okay?
If there was someone, she'd have told us.
Go fuck yourself.
Remind me. How many years did you spend studying psychology?
Shut up.
Here you are, Ms. Court Clerk. Your carriage has arrived.
You're gorgeous.
-Really? -Yeah. Have a good day.
Have a good day.
We had nothing to talk about.
Looking at each other.
I didn't want him to know I was looking at him!
Then we realized that we had loads in common.
It was romantic! We took a ride on his motorbike.
We watched the fireworks.
-I told him I loved him. -What?
Something's ringing.
-You have a cell phone? -It's Ludo. I'll call him back.
-Is everything okay? -I need to speak to the judge in private.
You take the next one.
I heard that you postponed your interviews.
I'm busy with a case.
The Mulhouse ring case.
Nothing's a secret around here.
I'm just helping a colleague.
Yes, of course.
It's weird because
I know Robert, the prosecutor in Mulhouse, well.
He says he's never heard of this ring.
You should be careful, you know.
Reputations are… fragile.
I'm saying this…
to help you.
Have a good day, Your Honor.
Coffee?
Don't worry about Kim. You know what she's like.
She's right.
Mélanie must have known her killer.
She must have.
Maybe we all knew him.
He was right under my nose, damn it! I knew it wasn't an accident.
I should never have listened to you.
We couldn't have known, Ludo.
What could we have done?
We had nothing.
I didn't even notice anything. Neither did Flo!
She worked with her all day long.
We all missed it.
If you and Flo hadn't been there…
I don't know what I'd have done.
Thank you, buddy.
Come here. Come on.
Thank you.
It's true that at one point, mi casa had kind of become tu casa.
-Shut up! -But it's true, seriously!
-Aren't we having lunch together? -No. I have plans. See you in a bit.
-Is Mélou not here? -She left. You didn't run into her?
No. Know where she went?
To the beach, I guess.
Hey! Want to have lunch with me? I'm free.
-If you'd like. -Yes.
-Has she been ditching you like this? -For the last week.
I don't know what's up with her. I'm worried.
Since she started on this ring killer case,
she's rescheduling interviews.
I'm ready. Shall we go?
-Let's go. -I'm so hungry.
USER: AGATHE BURTIN LOCATION: CORSEN BEACH
She fell off that cliff?
Here we go, about time!
Have you seen the time?
There will be water everywhere! Let's get to work!
Unbelievable…
What's so interesting here?
Zone C.
Agathe, it's Ludo. I need to use the room.
What were you doing?
You told me there was a glitch in Zoé Levy's VR.
So I went to check if there was a glitch. Or not.
Just in case the files were corrupted.
And? You didn't see anything?
There was a glitch to begin with. There's no glitch now. It's working fine.
So, why do you need to keep going back so often?
Because… I don't want to miss anything.
That's all.
And I'd like to check out Mélanie's VR. I guess it's not ready yet.
No. I only have two hands.
Can I have the glasses?
Don't miss your 1:00 p.m. session.
-Did you see someone before I arrived? -No. Why?
My technician's starting to ask questions. I'm really worried they'll stop me from…
We're making progress.
We think that your killer is close to you. That it's someone you know.
Think. Has anyone around you been behaving weirdly lately?
It could be a friend, a colleague. Someone you see a lot of.
-No. -Mélou, there must be someone.
-Who are you thinking of? -I'm not thinking.
-There's Orsat. -Orsat, the prosecutor?
He's been hassling me to have lunch. He cornered me in the elevator.
You never mentioned it.
Guys hit on girls. I don't always tell you.
It doesn't make him a serial killer.
He must have known Yasmine. She was a captain in Quimper.
Who?
I told you about her.
My boss, the one who replaced Le Goff, remember?
This morning, when I arrived at the station,
Yasmine was on the victims board.
She was killed in 2001.
At least, as things stand, she was killed in 2001.
Same ring. Same killer.
Orsat fits the bill.
What do I do? I run into him all the time.
Leave it to me. If it's him, we'll get him.
I promise. Meet you here at 11:00 p.m.
Wait. I'm going to tell Ludo. My Ludo.
-No. -He knows something's up. He followed me.
Don't do that. We mustn't tell anyone. Neither of us.
No one would believe us anyway.
We don't know what's going to happen.
-We need to keep talking. -I can't keep doing this alone.
You're not alone, Mélou.
Bruno?
Hey, Tintin!
-A coffee, Commander? -No.
Go onto Mercure and get Zoé Levy's phone records,
ingoing and outgoing calls, and compare them to Nolwenn's.
-Now. -Right away, Commander.
2:00 to 3:00 p.m.?
No problem, I'll call back. Thanks.
-I think I have a lead. -Found it in the VR?
I apologize.
I've been thinking. You're right. Mélanie knew her killer.
I think it's Orsat.
Orsat, the prosecutor?
They worked together.
They saw each other every day. It turns out that Mélanie told me…
What I mean to say is he…
I know they were close.
Yeah.
He must've known Yasmine. She worked in Quimper. Brest was her local court.
That's two out of four victims who were in his circle.
That's a little circumstantial.
Hold on. He was the one who insisted we file Zoé Levy's death as a suicide.
Nathan, it's the first time in our career that a prosecutor hasn't busted our balls
about carrying out every possible check before closing the case.
Look.
The N + Z on the beach.
Orsat's first name? Nicolas.
And you don't find it strange
that he's calling Le Goff every half hour to see how the investigation's going,
even though he's not on the case anymore?
Seriously, Nathan! Fuck!
Yeah, right.
Kim?
He has the right profile, right?
In terms of ego, he's got it.
The kind of guy who can't stand failure, particularly rejection by a woman.
But from that to a murder suspect?
He's playing tennis with the prefect at 2:00 p.m.
If we leave now, we might be able to check his alibi for Zoé Levy.
How?
By stealing his phone.
-If we mess this up, we'll get suspended. -Don't worry. He knows what he's doing.
That's not how it looks to me. Ludo's a mess right now.
The state of him earlier?
It was like he'd forgotten everything.
He's not eating or sleeping. He's obsessed.
Hey, listen. Mél was his wife.
How would you handle it? What would you do in his shoes?
Agathe told me that he keeps logging into Levy's VR.
Sometimes in the middle of the night.
Is that normal?
-He's on the move. Do you read me? -We read you.
Hello.
He has his tennis racket. We're good. I'll get him.
Ludo?
-How's it going, Flo? -Good.
Nathan told me about Mélanie. It's terrible.
Yeah. Sorry, I'm in a bit of a rush.
But are you okay? Is Juju holding up?
Everything's fine.
Tell me, how well do you know Orsat, the prosecutor?
Not that well. I see him in the corridors. Why?
No reason. He seems to be popular.
Well, that's Orsat for you. He's a playboy.
But he makes sure not to cross the line.
Yeah?
He had a thing with Yasmine Ben Salem, right?
You know, one of the victims in our case.
I don't know about Orsat and Yasmine. She was more into Nathan.
What?
Into Nathan?
They knew one another?
They worked on a case together for a while.
He'd always call her.
I thought he'd sleep with her. I was supposedly paranoid…
Anyway, she was into him. It was obvious.
I didn't know. I'm sorry.
-Sorry, I have to go. -Okay.
Ludo! What are you doing? He's leaving!
Follow him. I'll go search his office.
What? No. You're kidding!
Ludo, you--
He knows what he's doing?
-Hello. -Hello.
Commander Béguin?
Good afternoon, Mrs. Prigent. How are you?
Fine, thanks. If you're here for the prosecutor, he's gone out.
Really? Shit.
Because the boss left his glasses behind this morning.
As I've just come from Judge Ifrah's office,
I thought I could…
Come in. Let's have a look.
-Do you know where he left them? -No. No idea.
Your wife's case is really important for the prosecutor.
I think he knew her well.
Excuse me a moment. I'll be right back.
Yes, sir? Hello.
I was expecting your call.
THE BREST MURDERER HAS BEEN AT LARGE FOR 27 YEARS
RETURN TRAIN JOURNEY RENNES - BREST 19:23
Okay. Thanks very much. Bye.
So, did you find the--
No. I didn't find… I…
No, he must have left them someplace else.
Tell me.
Did it go well in Rennes?
On July 6, his talk to the college students.
Very well.
The students wouldn't let him go.
They took him to dinner. He even stayed a day longer than planned.
Yeah.
-Have a good day. Bye. -Have a good day, Commander Béguin.
Forget it. It's over.
Dammit, what were you doing? What are you talking about?
Orsat has an alibi for Zoé Levy.
It wasn't him. Check your phones.
ON JULY 6, PROSECUTOR ORSAT SPOKE TO RECENT GRADUATES AT RENNES UNIVERSITY
See you at the station.
Okay, I'll talk to him.
-I'm going up. See you. -See you in a bit.
Dude, this is starting to be too much, seriously.
We can't keep doing shit like this.
You're too involved.
How about I take the lead?
Are you trying to take me off the case?
No, what are you talking about? It's just that…
Forget it. Bruno called.
He checked Zoé Levy's phone records. An unknown number called her eight times.
Same for Nolwenn. With a prepaid phone every time.
-Great. -Yeah.
We're getting closer.
We'll get the bastard!
Yeah.
Did you know Yasmine?
No.
Why do you ask?
You never had anything to do with her?
Of course I'm sure! If I knew her, I'd have recognized her.
Did you know Zoé Levy?
No? Right.
-Yeah, Agathe? -Ludo, Mélanie's file is ready.
Rewind.
Capture.
BRITTANY'S LARGEST COCAINE HAUL MADE BY THE BREST POLICE
SUMMARY REPORT CONCLUSION
July 19, Nathan Leroy, duty commander.
With the information gathered, the results from the experts,
there was no evidence to confirm a murder or a suicide.
It was most likely an accident.
NAME AND SIGNATURE OF COMMANDER IN CHARGE
SURF LESSONS REGISTRATION FORM CONTACT: MR. MALAPERT
Mr. Malapert? Commander Béguin, from the Brest police. Sorry to call late.
I need further information about your Breizh Trip surf club.
No, it's not in connection with Nolwenn Gakou.
I'd like to know whether a Nathan Leroy attended your club.
You might need to go back a few years.
Are you able to check?
I'll wait.
Are you sure?
In 2020?
Okay, I'll call you back. Thanks.
-What's this? Mélou? -Hold on.
What are you doing?
What's this?
You bought all this?
-Is this to do with the assault? -Yes.
-I have to go. I only need an hour. -What's with the alarm?
Why have you got an alarm to go out?
What are you doing on that beach?
I know you go there at lunchtime too.
You wouldn't understand.
Try.
Try to explain it to me.
-Are you seeing someone else? -No, nothing like that.
So, what is it?
Talk to me. I'm here, damn it!
I don't know what to do anymore.
I've been told I'm going to die in two days.
What?
Who told you that? Did someone threaten you, is that it?
Who? It's--
-The guy who assaulted you? Brisset? -No.
Who, then?
You.
It happened eight days ago.
You appeared in front of me. You were 52 years old.
We could see and talk to each other. Me in '98, you in 2025.
-You told me I was going to be killed. -Mélou.
I didn't believe it at first.
I thought it was nonsense, that you were playing some lame prank.
But it really was you!
You had proof. Pictures of me dead on the beach!
You have to believe me.
You do realize that's completely crazy?
Is Mbappé going to win the Ballon D'Or? Jonathan thinks it's going to be Haaland.
-Who do you think is the best? -I don't know, Sam.
I've really thought about it. I have loads of reasons.
He's really nice, really handsome, and he's really good.
He looks awesome, and he scores really cool goals.
There's no way he won't get it after his last goal.
It was almost as nice as Nora's.
Dad? How many goals do you think I'll score in my game tomorrow?*
I can't take you to the game tomorrow.
Why? You promised! We're supposed to take Clément!
We'll ask Clément's dad.
He's working! It was meant to be you!
I'm working too! What do you think I do all day?
It's no big deal if you miss a game for once in your life. It won't kill you.
I'd interest you more if I was dead.
You realize what you're saying?
You're a dick!
I'm sorry. Sam, I'm--
Have you gone crazy?
What's your problem?
I don't know what got into me. Sam!
Sam!
Shit.
Sorry. I have to go. We'll talk about it later.
Are you kidding?
I can't right now. It's my case. I really have to go.
No. You're not running away. I know this isn't just about your case.
Darling, please.
You're going nowhere until I understand what's going on.
So, the day we met at the police station, that was her.
She was the one who called me in.
We can still save her.
Let's say I believe you.
Let's say all this crazy vortex stuff is real.
You must understand that you can't save her.
Because if all this is true,
what would happen if you succeeded?
If you actually save her?
Everything would be different.
Everything.
Of course I've thought of all that.
That won't happen.
She's going to leave me on the 17th.
The day of her death. She promised.
But even if she leaves you,
I fell in love with someone who had lost the person they loved. Like me!
Who's to say things would be the same between us?
That we'd definitely fall in love?
You're not yourself anymore.
You can't go back there.
You can't go back there!
I think I know who it is.
The one who's going to kill her.
I just have to warn her. I can't leave her.
What?
You're still in love with her.
No. Not at all. You're the one I love.
So stay, then.
No, I can't do that.
I can't do that. I'd never forgive myself.
If you go, I'll leave with Sam.
I can't let her die.
Not again.
Hey, Forrest!
What are you doing here? Where's Juliette?
I asked the neighbor to look after her.
So, this is where it happens?
Is he here now?
No. He isn't here yet. Anyway, I'm not sure you'd be able to see him.
Stop looking at me like that.
If you don't believe me, too bad, but it's true.
How do you think I knew about your smokes?
True, that surprised me at the time.
Mélou, please, don't get mad, okay?
But is it possible that because of your insomnia,
you hallucinated? That can happen--
I know what's going to happen to Juliette!
She's going to be a doctor. And you're going to build a new life.
Right, okay. Mélou, stop! Okay!
You're talking to a guy from the future,
and you're the only one on the planet who can talk to him?
Put yourself in my shoes, damn it!
Listen. I'm begging you. Please.
I'm just asking for one thing.
I'd like you to get some help.
This happens to plenty of people. It's okay to lose the plot.
We'll book an appointment. Just one session. So you can tell--
OPEN FILE
Mélanie!
Zone A.
I'm sorry, it's late. Are you busy?
Here.
Hey. Go easy.
If you puke, I warn you, I won't hold your hair like in high school.
That was ten years ago. And I had a stomach bug.
A stomach bug. Sure.
So, what's going on? Trouble at work?
Or with Ludo? What is it?
-I'm scared of dying. -No.
Hold on, don't tell me this is still about your psychic?
Because I can go smash her face in.
Seriously, I'll do it.
I mean, that depends. Is she, like, burly?
Too burly for you.
Okay, right. Forget what I said.
Have you ever thought about life when you're gone?
No.
I don't want to think about stuff like that.
I can't stop myself.
You know the worst part?
I almost wish Ludo and Juliette would never get over my death.
That's awful, isn't it?
I'm scared I'll be forgotten!
That's not going to happen.
I know it.
Do you know how I know it?
Because if you die, then I'll never get over it.
For at least the first couple of weeks. It'd be awful. Seriously.
But after that, I'll be great.
Sorry, I don't know, it's… Fuck.
Don't worry, it's fine.
-I shouldn't have. -No. Don't worry.
-No problem. -It's late. I'm going to head home.
What is it?
I don't know. I'll go see.
What are you doing here? You seen the time?
I have something to ask you.
-It couldn't wait until the morning? -No.
I really need to know whether or not you knew Yasmine Ben Salem.
You're going round in circles. Is this why you're ringing at 2:00 a.m.?
You had an affair with her in 2001.
Ludo, listen, don't mess about, okay?
That was a long time ago.
Things weren't great with Flo then.
Please don't say anything. If she finds out, it'll be trouble.
Do you think I give a damn about your flings?
Why didn't you say that you'd slept with one of the victims?
It had nothing to do with the case.
I was in Mélanie's VR.
You were completely careless at the crime scene.
You weren't even wearing gloves.
Stop it, damn it. No one wore gloves back then.
-Yeah. -Not even you.
But you immediately concluded it was an accident.
You didn't think there might be another lead.
You don't think that keeps me up at night?
Why come talk to me about this now?
Where were you the night Zoé Levy died?
-You can't be serious. -You box, Nathan.
You went to the same surf club as Nolwenn.
You slept with Yasmine. You knew Mélanie.
Where were you the night Zoé Levy died?
Mél!
What are you doing here? Get in, I'll take you home.
Thanks, I'd rather walk.
Have you seen the weather? Get in.
I need some time alone.
Whatever you want.
