no way they can trace me. Don't worry.

But the problem is I don't have any

sulphuric acid.

I must admit.. I don't know where

to get it.

I know where to find it. My cousin is an

ironworker. Let's just jack his supply.

Perfect.

But apart from that, what about the target?

Should we choose them ourselves?

No, we'll soon find out. I'll go see them

as soon as we're ready.

Are they in Paris?

Yes.

Do you think we will be able to

meet them someday?

One conctact per cell Sidi.

That's the rule.

What do we do next if something

happens to you?

Don't worry, they know who you are.

They'll know who to contact if needed.

In the meanwhile, we need a great deal

of fertilizer.

That's no problem.

Get back to work, brothers.

Sidi?

Back to work!

Okay boss.

What's missing?

One phone for calling and one

for triggering the detonator.

Whatever, a gas cylinder, some nails.

What are you doing here?!

Keep a watch.

Okay, okay.

How do you do?

Yeah.

Christophe?

Yeah?

Christophe?

Youssef!!

Who cares, come on!

Hassan?

It's the cops!

You stay put.

Wait!

Come on!

Let's move.

Hit him that motherf***er!

Hit him!!

What have you done?

What have you done?

Sam, we need to pull over.

Sam! We need to pull over.

Drop me off at my mother's.

Take me to my mother's.

No, we're taking you to hospital,

my brother.

Don't worry, huh Hassan?

We can't take that risk.

Allahu akbar.

Thanks.

Tonight was tense, wasn't it?

You weren't suppose to step in.

You did nothing wrong.

You triggered an alarm.

Sidi is dead.

It's a "mirror programm".

We need you to install it.

It will provide us access

to their computers.

You do that and I plead your case.

That way they will leave you alone.

I swear... I want a lots of children.

5 sons and 2 daughters

Now I just have to find women who'll

make them.

But I'm sure that fate will help me

inshallah.

Are you right or left-handed?

Right-handed.

Put your left leg

in front of you.

Go ahead Sidi.

Muhammed Ali.

Sidi come on! He's driven!

Good! Dance like the bee and the

butterfly.

That's it black boy. I like it.

Come on Sidi.

That's right, show them who's Ali!

Where's your cross-counter!?

Your guard!

Why did you do that?

What?

Why didn't you run over that bastard?

The cop that killed Sidi..

Why didn't you do it?

I don't know, I wasn't thinking.

I just tried to get us out of there.

But the easy way was to drive straight.

You avoided him, why?

I would have smashed him without thinking.

Leave him.

If it wasn't for him

we couldn't have gotten away.

So give him a break!

That's no excuse.

You had the opportunity to smoke

that f***er. Sidi wouldn't have died.

But no, you didn't do that!

What did they decide?

We keep going.

We're all shaken, that's normal.

We lost a friend.

But it shouldn't make any difference.

He was still a kid, poor him.

We're at war.

Some must die.

And they go straight to heaven.

He wanted to die like a soldier.

And he died like a dog.

Driss...

You're blaspheming, he died a hero.

He's a martyr.

Maybe, but Driss is right. Our struggle

You shut up, don't talk to me!

I don't trust you anymore.

All because I didn't crush that cop?

No, because I never could stand you.

Pfff, you're a drag.

Shut the f*** up you yuppie!

It will happen on the Champs-lyses.

When?

In seven days. Saturday.

During rush hour.

That's not all.

Several cells will take action

simultaneously throughout the territory.

Our deed will be the first of many.

A wave of attacks will shake up

all of France.

And we got chosen to give the signal.

It's a great honour.

The one with the intel was formed

in Pakistan.

He'll never speak in interrogation.

He's very wary.

We're bound to give up, this is not

the right way.

He's also ignoring the other cells.

We need the head.

We tried everything. Only the reporter

can help us now.

Just give us 2 days.

Well, he wants to stop for now

but believe me it won't happen.

I'll let you know anyway.

You told me that if I installed

the program, you'll leave me alone.

The situation has changed.

Sam :
I don't f***ing care

Okay, let me be clear, we had all of our

teams on the case...We got nothing.

You remain the only source of information.

And if we bust the cell now, we could not

prevent other attacks.

You have 2 days to find out who's

giving orders.

Yeah.

But I'm stopping! Besides Sidi

is getting suspicious.

No.

No.

I am stopping.

Too bad.

You said it.

Too bad I wish I was a muslim to find

arguments to convince you.

But that's not the case.

Good "cop" way of doing things, huh?

Good way of good cop, indeed.

Believer, non-believer, that's no more

the issue, huh?

But I wonder how you will cope when sitting

in front of the TV

learning the number of casualties

alone with your conscience.

Hello, you've reached Laurent Pelletier.

Leave a message. Thanks

Good morning.

I have a meeting with Hassan.

He's not here.

It's time for his lesson.

He'll be here soon then. He's never late.

Can I wait inside?

In the living room.

Sam :
Of course.

Let's push, here it is.

So?

Too small.

No worries sir. I'll fetch you

the next half size up.

I'll be right back.

What the hell you doing here?

Are you crazy?

I need to talk to you.

What are you doing?

Hassan and you, what are you doing?

What do you mean?

Last night when he got home, he was

covered in blood.

He said it was a traffic accident.

I didn't believe him.

Where was he?

Where is he when he's out with you?

Since he got back from Mecca, I don't

know him anymore.

Since he got back from Mecca?

Yes.

He doesn't want me to go outside

even wearing a Niqab.

He's out every night without

telling me where he's going.

What's happening?

Tell me what's happening.

Otherwise I'll tell him you went

through his stuff.

I need help.

Your husband's lying to you.

What are you doing here?

Your wife answered the door.

Zora?

Why did you let him in?

You had an appointement.

I was not here. You don't answer

the door when I'm not here.

I was the one who insisted.

I'm sorry.

We got a problem.

Go ahead. Tell them.

We need to change our target.

It's not up to you.

I don't claim to choose anything.

I'm just telling you we have to ask them

to change the target.

What is it you don't get?

We received an order.

I can't.

You said yourself we're not barbarians

rather soldiers.

To me, we should whack French

representatives, that's our true ennemies.

We blow up a police station, barracks,

a ministry, whatever you want.

But not that.

No women nor chilren.

I won't kill innocent people.

Wait, do you think they care that

our children in Palestine are killed?

Our children? What are you talking about

you're a Breton.

F***, shut up.

You're reacting as such because you

don't know who are giving us orders.

Maybe it'll be good if they speak to us

and explain us their choice.

We're at war.

In every war, there are

civilian casualties, you okay with that?

Our war is holy. You should respect
