Maybe.

Fine. We'll do a handwriting test.

And if the writing on this note

matches any of you,

I'll open a harassment protocol.

And if I find out

you've laid a hand on Nico,

I'll expel the three of you.

Is that clear?

What does the note say?

That if I go to the 24-hour store

on my birthday, I'll die.

- Jon?

- Jon Zrate.

- How are you?

- Nice to meet you.

- Come in.

- Yes.

I made some copies.

Thank you.

See? In 1976 there was no store,

just the pumps and an office.

The official car was here, filling up.

The general was in the back,

reading the paper.

I was with the general's escort

cleaning the windshield.

A beautiful black Dodge.

Then I heard the sound

of a motorbike approaching.

With two men.

Suddenly, the passenger

pulled out a machine-gun.

It all happened so fast.

The escort jumped on me

and covered me with his body.

Meanwhile, the terrorist shot at the car.

When the magazine was empty...

he yelled, "Long live ETA,"

got on the bike and they left.

I tried to move, but I couldn't.

The escort's body was on top of me.

He was dead.

The general was shot several times,

but he was luckier and survived.

I went to the funeral.

I'll never forget it.

The escort's mother came over...

and made me promise

to make the most of my life

so that her son's death

was not in vain.

I'm not a genius or a scientist

or anything, but...

what I make from this business

allows me

to finance some soup kitchens

and some summer camps

for underprivileged kids.

I think I kept my promise.

Why do you want to know all this?

The person who was shot

is my best friend.

I'm sorry.

Don't you think it's strange?

What?

That there were two shootings

in the same place.

In both, five people were present.

In both, a 10-year-old boy.

Yes, it's strange.

PASSIONATE CRIME DURING THE SALE

Because in 1955,

there was a murder there.

And it happened on April 12.

SEE YOU IN THE LOCKER ROOM

IN THE GYM, IT'S IMPORTAN Sara?

You thought you'd scored, huh?

You made up that sh*t to f*** us over.

I didn't make up anything.

- You wrote it yourself!

- I didn't!

We could get expelled

because of you, d*ckhead!

Take off your clothes.

Take off your clothes

or I'll beat your f***ing head in!

Strip!

Smile.

Listen to me.

F*** us over again,

and we'll post this photo online.

Got it?

Do you want to see the picture?

How come you have a picture?

Nico, what's up?

He looks terrible.

I've got a picture, guys.

Let's see it. Why do you have it?

JON ZRATE,

WINNER OF THE MATH OLYMPICS

Hello, this is Jon Zrate.

Leave a message. Thanks.

Mr. Zrate, this is Social Services.

The renewal of your temporary leave

is up for revision.

We need to do a complete check-up

to reauthorize it.

Hello?

Yes, I'm coming down.

LOOK FOR A PATTERN

- What's wrong?

- Nothing.

How old do you think the Russian is

from the 24-hour store?

Forty... 42.

Forty or 42?

I don't know, 42.

Forty.

How long have they been now?

David was taking me

to Paris this weekend.

He left the computer on

and I saw the tickets.

He's not good at keeping secrets.

Right.

He told you everything, huh?

- Right after I got out of the hospital.

- Jon, those were six tough months.

These things happen.

I was in for a long time,

you two spent a lot of time together.

- They've finished.

- And?

The surgeon says it went well.

We have to wait

and see how he progresses.

- Let's grab something to eat.

- Yes.

We've caught the man who did it.

Aren't you happy?

Yes, of course.

Sure, but if he's a minor

and gets away with it...

No, he's not a minor. That's for sure.

He's around 20.

Twenty-one, he's 21.

What I'm going to tell you

may sound strange, but listen, okay?

I've been looking into some things.

Look,

the night David was shot,

there were five people:

the owner, who is 53,

a 10-year-old boy,

David, who is 32, the Russian, 42,

and since we don't know

the assailant's age, a question mark.

Right, on April 12, 1976,

this same place was attacked.

There were also five people present:

a general, 53, his escort, 21,

a 10-year-old boy,

a terrorist, 42,

and the other terrorist was 32 exactly.

Do you see the sequence?

- That's insane.

- If you think that is, check this out.

In 1955, in the same place,

there was another shooting.

- Also on April 12.

- At the gas station?

But in 1955, it was an inn.

It was a crime of passion.

Apparently, the owner had a lover,

and when she wanted to break up with him,

he went crazy

and showed up with a shotgun.

At the time, the man was exactly 53,

the woman, 42.

A nephew who worked at the inn, 21.

A customer having a glass

of wine there, 32.

Who else was there?

The woman's son, who was, of course, 10

That's why I say that David's killer

has to be exactly 21,

because the numerical sequence is perfect.

Amazing!

Jon, people don't die because of math.

- This makes no sense.

- Yes, it does, Andrea. Here's the proof,

numbers don't lie. Three times,

and every time a person dies. It's math!

David's not dead, damn it!

I'm sorry. Forgive me.

It's true.

It was a stupid idea.

Jon,

David was shot on April 2, not 12.

That's true.

Where'd you get that date from?

You're saying I'm making it up?

I'm not saying anything. You tell me.

April 12 is your birthday.

And?

- Have you stopped taking your meds?

- I can't take them.

They make my head fuzzy

and I need to be lucid.

But you can't stop taking your pills.

Does your doctor know?

I'm going to the bathroom.

Twenty-one-fifty, please.

I don't give a f*** about your family.

You're not going to any birthday!

You know I was excited about it.

- You're staying at home.

- Why?

You're going home

to look after your kids!

Please, not here.

Please.

You're not going anywhere

with your slutty cousin.

Relax. I'll take care of it.

- Sir, you have to leave the store.

- Don't touch me, fat-ass!

- Sit down.

- No, thanks.

We've spoken to the three boys

we think might've written the note.

- They deny it all.

- What else would they say?

We did a handwriting test on them

and the writing on the note

doesn't match any of them.

Look, see it for yourself.

HANDWRITING EXPERT REPOR But someone had to write it, right?

According to the test,

it's an adult's handwriting.

Luca, I don't want to pry,

but I think it's my duty to tell you.

Maybe this matter is related

to your family situation.

I don't understand.

We know that your ex-husband

has a restraining order.

We've dealt with this kind of thing before

and maybe Nico's father is involved.

This is too much.

Luca, listen, please.

The note mentions his birthday.

Maybe he wants to be with him.

- I'm reporting this to the police.

- Luca, please.

I'm sorry if I offended you,

but we can't rule out the possibility.

All you care about is your f***ing record

and this f***ing school.

I care about my students.

Then keep them away from him,

f***ing do something!

They won't touch your son again.
