Thierry.

We'll show it at the Hotel. It's the only way

to know if he spent the night with the girl.

You forget something. If it's him

it means he has an alibi for the hold-up.

The lady boss at the Hotel

saw him leaving his room at 2:00 PM.

If he's man enough to beat up

4 men in a police van

he could have easily jumped

from the hotel room,

commit the hold-up at 9

and come back the same way

to be pampered by the girl when she awakened.

And kill her at 2:30?

For a guy who just got out of jail

I think his day is a little too busy.

- What about the gypsy?

- We're on the hunt.

I'm going to investigate the bar

where Mimi had an appointment.

- What bar?

- At Napo's on Rue Pigalle.

Rue Pigalle again? It's the same

or they all have the same name these days?

It's the same.

That's not too soon.

Give me Mr Gabriel.

Well, I'll call back.

No I'll call back.

Hello?

- Mr Gabriel will be here anytime soon.

- Good. Tell him to wait for Jo.

It's very important. I'm coming.

Hold a sec brigadier. Dad...

- I'm listening.

- I'm listening.

A car accident in Montfort L'Amaury.

- Two dead guys.

- Not my department.

- Hang up.

- An odd detail...

- Ignition key was on the trunk.

- That's funny.

- Pockets full of bills.

- Lottery or railway bills?

Lottery or railway bills?

Bank bills.

Names of the deceased, please?

Paul Garnier.

Raymond Garcia.

Car registered to Gabriel Fracasse.

- Sorry, Farkas.

- Ask him to wait.

- Wait.

- Call me Odile and Thierry.

- Inspectors Odile and Thierry

to the big office, please. - Alright.

It's a new method? Your feet hurt?

Not yet. I save myself.

If you went for them you'd have

told them everything on the way.

Now I have to do it.

- I hate to repeat what I know.

- But I can tell them, dad.

"But I can tell them, dad."

Do it but I don't want to hear you.

I have to think.

I can't concentrate. I'm asking myself what

you tell them and it gets on my nerves.

Well, I understood.

This accident is the

second act of the hold-up.

Only one way to know. To check the

numbers of the bank bills. Thierry.

Take the fingerprints guys with you.

I'm sending someone to the owner

of the car. Of two things...

- Either it was stolen from him...

- Or it wasn't.

Hang on, he's just coming.

It's for you, Mr Gabriel.

Napo? You feel better?

Me I'm in great shape.

Alright...

Shut up. What's wrong with you?

Cops came here. You still got some gold?

It will be your loss soon.

- Go see Raton immediately.

- At this hour it won't be easy.

Paul and Raymond took my car.

OK, I call you as soon as I get rid of it.

This time you stay here.

Gabriel!

Sh*t!

Unbelievable! We really have

the same schedule.

- Mr Farkas?

- Yes.

Police. We have a few questions for you.

I'm listening.

If it doesn't bother you

we could go to our office.

Tell me at least what it's all about.

We found two dead men in your car.

It's a good matter for a conversation.

I'll leave this suitcase at home

and I'll follow you.

Mr Farkas...

Why wouldn't you come

with your suitcase?

Sorry gentlemen, I'm looking for the street...

You're not very polite, gentlemen.

Gabriel!

Hey Gabriel!

He turned to the left.

To the right!

To the right now!

It's not a dead end street.

It continues on the left.

Don't freak out!

Don't stay with your car!

Hurry up, Gabriel. Get inside.

What are you doing here?

He's dead.

Thanks for the help, man.

But it could have cost you

your life.

Where're you going? Murderer!

- Nothing new at the "Petit Pig".

- Here either.

- And the bar's owner?

- He didn't return yet.

That's enough now!

- You know him?

- Not at all.

- Just go away quietly.

- No kidding!

Same thing.

Jo...

No, Simon didn't return.

Tell him that I've already found 3 guys.

I only miss one.

And I know him this time.

But I can't do anything...

because it's also one of my pals like...

like Simon.

If I don't do anything

the cops will keep Simon in jail.

So you will tell Simon when he's back

that he sends me oranges

at the usual address.

You're giving yourself up?

Yes, my little lady.

Heroically!

They miss one man.

It will be me.

And now...

you're going to do something for me.

Yes, Jo.

I'm going to leave a message to

a girl asking her to call you.

You'll explain everything to her.

Handwriting is not my strong point.

Her name is Mimi.

Well...

So long, Adeline.

Please let me drink alone.

That's enough.

- Bartender, I want to pay.

- Don't be so nervous, my little lady.

- Leave me alone!

- Don't be afraid.

- You don't know him either?

- No.

- Tell him.

- No, you tell him.

Well, this guy is our buddy.

Well, your buddy will be

much better outside.

But we say he will

be much better inside.

It's annoying. We don't agree.

- What do we do now?

- Well, we could dance.

Hello, Police?

Come quickly. 15 Madeleine Boulevard.

What happens when I'm not here?

They bother me and I'm bored.

Really?

No, I'm joking.

It's the first time I've come here.

I left the movie I was thirsty.

Movies?

- And I'm still thirsty since I

couldn't drink. - It's funny...

I forgot to eat since yesterday morning.

But you don't give a sh*t...

You're old enough to

know when you have to eat.

Well, I still have an errand to do.

- So long, little lady.

- So long.

Come on, Sticky.

We don't have all night.

Alright, thank you.

The doc report says no traces of injury

dating from this morning on Farkas.

Only fresh injury.

- Well, alright.

- Yes?

It's Thierry, dad.

He says that the bills...

in the car that crashed in the tree...

Come on, Junior, talk faster.

Your suspense gets on my nerves.

- The bills are those of the hold-up.

- One of the two men is hurt?

Of course, dad,

since they're both dead.

Junior, you're silly again.

Yes, sorry, dad.

Any gunshot wound?

No gunshot wound.

So it's the fourth idiot

who has been hurt this morning.

Mister Jowett.

Hotel Wagram. Place de l'Etoile.

Mister Jowett traveled a lot today.

Another little flag here...

in Montfort L'Amaury.

Guess who the fingerprints belong to

that we found on the car

that crashed into the tree in Montfort?

To Jowett.

- I already told him. - Jo, you

spoiled my effect. I don't like that.

Imagine that this wild-eyed Mister

Jowett must be hurt since this morning.

It doesn't seem to take off his stamina.

An hold-up in the morning.

A murder after lunch.

A car accident from 5 to 7.

And an escape at four against one.

Yep.

Did we show his picture to

the lady boss of Hotel Wagram?

Not yet. I went to the record dept

to yell at them.

They lost his mugshot.

Since this morning everyone

wants his mugshot

so it probably got lost on the way

from one dept. to another.

If in two minutes Odile

doesn't get this mugshot...

You see my point, Junior?

Send the message.

- For the first time he hurries!

- Jowett's mugshot.

Always the same.

You must yell to be heard.

His record was at the photo lab.

They were making prints.
