Polisse Page #9

Synopsis: The daily grind for the cops of the Police Department's Juvenile Protection Unit - taking in child molesters, busting underage pickpockets and chewing over relationship issues at lunch; interrogating abusive parents, taking statements from children, confronting the excesses of teen sexuality, enjoying solidarity with colleagues and laughing uncontrollably at the most unthinkable moments. Knowing the worst exists and living with it. How do these cops balance their private lives and the reality they confront every working day? Fred, the group's hypersensitive wild card, is going to have a hard time facing the scrutiny of Melissa, a photographer on a Ministry of the Interior assignment to document the unit.

I miss my family.

I miss my children. Can't you see that?

It's because of her,

making me see him like a...

I love him.

Maybe that pisses you off

because you love no one.

You're all shriveled up.

No cock could ever get inside you!

You're a piece of sh*t!

You don't seem

in control of your faculties.

Don't f***ing start on that.

Just don't start telling me what to do.

Your husband's gone.

He should've gone long ago!

I feel sorry for him.

All these years with you.

And you making yourself puke?

You think nobody knows?

We all know, you puke all day long.

It's over, got it? Over!

Stop trying to run my life!

I'll file a report.

What do you expect?

Want me to type it?

What the hell's going on?

We can hear you downstairs!

I don't care!

What's the problem?

Sounds like ego issues.

Sure, the ego is dignity.

You've got no ego? Ego means

I can look at myself in the mirror.

I leave my ego problems at home.

Not ego problems, one ego problem!

Be quiet when I'm talking!

Shut up now.

We'll split you up in September.

For now, button it!

Don't talk to me like I'm stupid.

I don't give a sh*t!

l can leave!

Leave.

Do us all a favor!

Start with a piked somersault.

Let's go.

Reach for the mat.

That's why you fell.

Next!

Nice but concentrate on keeping it tight,

to finish it off.

Let's keep going.

Very nice.

Solal, your turn.

Come on, Solal.

What are you waiting for?

Leave him, it's okay.

If you're nervous, don't jump.

Keep it coming.

Limited, but nicely done.

Who's next?

Good. That's called a tuck jump.

Solal?

I'm really so sorry.

I'd like to apologize to him.

I hope he gets over it.

I never wanted to hurt him.

You realize now that you did?

Yes.

You didn't think about it then, but now?

We had a relationship

that was like love.

I need you to sign the statement,

the bottom of each page.

Where'll he go now?

Will he be okay?

He'll receive help.

He'll be well looked after.

I know other places

where he can still do gymnastics.

It's important for him.

Will he

go to jail because of me?

No.

He'll go to jail for What he did.

He did it to you,

but you're not to blame. He's sick.

Your teacher has a disease, you see,

called pedophilia.

He's called a pedophile.

Have you heard that word before?

At school maybe?

It's a disease some adults have,

which means

that they do things to children

they have no right to do.

We're here to catch and punish them.

Why isn't he...

Why's he going to prison and not just...

Why isn't he going to a hospital?

When someone breaks the law like that,

they go to prison.

It's a punishment

that serves a purpose.

Then, maybe he'll be able

to do gym again one day,

and not hurt any more children,

you see?

I feel a bit sad.

Why are you sad?

I liked him.

He was nice to me.

Morning, everybody.

What a reception!

Nice to hear you speak as one.

I hope you enjoyed the vacation.

I see some people

have been in the sun, and others...

less so.

I hope school started okay

for your kids...

I'll start with the new appointments

and departures.

Lt. Desgranges has moved on

to the Vice Squad, as anticipated.

He'll be replaced by Lt. Gron.

Capt. Beck has joined the Fraud Squad

and Lt. Iris Langlois transfers

to replace him as section chief.

Congratulations.

Now, I'd like to talk about my plans

to restructure,

as everybody expected,

the Internet Section.

I believe that investing resources there

will help us

smoke out more pedophiles.

The pedophile at the school gates

is long gone...

Can I open a window? I'm hot.

You make it sound

like fieldwork's bullshit.
