Nobody helped me.

I've had enough of your games!

How did you get the bomb?

Answer me!

I found it in my apartment

after my husband died.

I suppose... someone he...

Were there really two children?

And their father!

And a fifty-year-old woman!

What's going on?

It's not the area.

Just this building.

Go and see what's going on.

Aren't there

any emergency lights?

- Your pocket.

- There should be.

- What's going on?

- I don't know, Maggiore.

Oh, good.

I put my hands

under the dryer...

and the fuse blew.

That will do for today.

Take her to her cell.

The letters aren't a problem.

We destroyed them before

she even brought them up.

What's next?

I'm keeping an eye on her.

They still think

she's just a fanatic.

Good.

Are we safe?

For now.

But it would be better

if something happened to her.

I spoke with my brother.

He's 11 years old...

and he's one of your pupils.

He told me that

he likes you the most...

of all the teachers.

He told me that

you are a good person.

I believe that.

That's why I want to help you.

If you agree,

please record that you agree...

and leave the tape

under the table...

in the interrogation room.

There is a small shelf

under the tabletop.

- What was that?

- It's a tape recorder.

- I can't understand anything!

- Wait a minute.

Let's try this.

I'm the one

who translates for you.

I was there when

the doctor treated you.

You squeezed

my fingers tightly.

I agree.

Thursday, around 10:00,

you'll have a stomachache.

You'll go to the bathroom...

and return

after several minutes.

If you find what

I left for you there...

signal to me.

Then, around 11:
00,

you'll feel ill again.

You'll return to the bathroom.

You'll hear the telephone

ringing in the hallway...

and it will stop ringing...

because the guard will have

picked up the receiver.

That's when

you leave the bathroom.

You will get into the elevator

and go down to the garage.

From there you can go up

half a flight of stairs.

You will leave the building

through a small door...

that opens

onto the rear courtyard.

Then you will go down

a path...

that leads around

the enclosure, into the street.

Throw your sweater

into the rubbish bin...

and head straight

for the train station.

I'll drive there in a car

in the evening...

and pick you up

at the rear entrance.

And then we'll think

of what to do next.

Because I believe

there will be something...

And that it will be beautiful.

Perfect.

- Now erase everything.

- What?

You heard me. Erase everything.

You're going to let them escape?

It's not a good idea

trying to escape from custody.

You put your life at stake.

I doubt she'd make it

past that back exit alive.

Aren't you afraid?

Yes, I'm afraid.

Are you feeling any better?

I found a bag...

a note and a key...

in the toilet.

What did she say?

In the bathroom,

I found a bag...

a note...

and a key.

When?

A week ago.

In the bag...

was a syringe

and the test results

from an HIV clinic.

The note had just three words...

"Throw me out with the trash."

The key opened the door

to the school glasshouse.

One of my pupils... Kara...

She'd been hanging there

for three days.

"Throw me out with the trash."

Her parents had to read that.

The carabinieri came...

Said there was

nothing for them to do.

So last Tuesday...

I went to her funeral

in the morning...

and...

in the afternoon

I went to Vendice's office.

With the bomb.

Miss?

Miss?

Please...

Escort her to the toilet.

Police headquarters.

Can I help you?

Extension 354, please.

Hello?

This is the Lippi-

Cardio-Vascular Center.

May I speak to Mr. Cassande?

Speaking.

I'll connect you

with the doctor.

Please hang on.

It may take a few moments.

Hello?

Hello?

Your Honor...

Look!

- What's wrong?

- Isn't that her?

Yes, it is.

How is that possible?

Hurry! To the main entrance!

- Where are you?

- At the back exit.

No! She's escaping

from the main gate!

Damn it!

Hey, you! Come out!

Excuse me.

Hurry! Come on, hurry up!

Check the railway station!

The translator!

Find the translator!

Why did you change the plan?

My father always said that

at the right moment...

you have to do what

nobody expects.

How did you know about

this attic?

I spent days here

when I was a child.

This was my hiding place.

My father was the chief

of the carabinieri for Torin.

Do you know why I said I agree?

Do you know

why I want to escape?

I don't want

to escape punishment.

I've killed

four innocent people...

and I want to answer for that.

But before I do...

I want to kill him.

That's the only reason

I agreed to escape.

- Ulcom Electronics.

- Good evening.

Could I please

speak to Mr. Vendice?

Who's speaking?

I have an urgent message

from Maggiore Pini.

Mr. Vendice isn't in

at the moment.

Would you like to leave

a message?

Yes, please tell him to call...

Maggiore Pini at his office

as soon as possible.

I repeat, his office.

It's important.

Yes?

Vittorio?

The Maggiore had to step out

for a moment.

- Mr. Vendice?

- Yes.

The Maggiore wants to see you

as soon as possible.

Now? Where?

Here, in his office.

I'll be there.

Did you catch her?

Yes. She was badly wounded.

I know it's late,

but I have to go there.

It's really important.

Don't wait up for me.

I'll wake you when I get back.

I know, I know. Listen...

I'll see you later, OK?

Do you remember me?

Yes.

You were sleeping beside me.

It's there.

If you're not even safe

in a police station...

Do they think it was the woman

who put the bomb in his office?

Who else? Women like her...

I'd like to strap a bomb

to her myself.

But how did she escape?

- Someone must have helped her.

- Well, I'm still in shock.

Is there insurance

for something like that?

I don't know.

What a nice dress.

Where'd you get it?

It's nice, isn't it?

I got it at...

My aunt owns this perfume shop.

- Oh, a perfume shop.

- Yes.

You left the water running

this morning!

I'll never forget that face.

It'll haunt me

for the rest of my life.

Didn't look like a face

anymore.

Like the stuff I buy

at the butcher's for the dog.

Only... with a suit attached.

You've got a way

of saying things!

I have to go

to the butcher's today.

What do you mean,

with a suit attached?

- So, the dress is nice?

- Yes.

Right.

So when you

leave the station...

there's a bar at the corner...

Who was that?

They were cleaning women.

One of them found the body

this morning.

She said she'll remember it

for the rest of her life.

What about you?

We're going to have

to leave this place.

The investigation

into last night's murder...

of Marco Vendice

is now focusing on...

the English woman

Philippa Paccard...

who had been arrested

for the recent bomb attack...

of Ulcom Electronics.

Ms. Paccard...

who escaped from police custody

before the murder...

had stated that Mr. Vendice...

was the intended victim

of that bomb.

Ms. Paccard's former husband
