The Prey Page #4

Synopsis: Bank-robber Franck Adrien is serving a prison sentence after robbing a national bank. Before he was caught he managed to hide the money but now it's not just the police who are looking for the money. His cell-mate is Jean-Louis Maurel, an alleged rapist/child molester who claims his innocence. When the court finds Maurel not guilty, Maurel promises to look after Franck's family when he gets out. But one day, a man called Manuel Carrega tells Franck that Maurel is a suspected serial killer and that Franck's family is in danger. Franck escapes from prison and police officer Claire Linné and her team take up the chase.

If Lucciani finds out...

Give me the address.

Maurel rented a house

in the Alpes-Maritimes

He pays through a Swiss bank

in Lausanne

Are you going to give me

the address?

You're not planning on

going there?

I'm very late.

Jean-Jacques, I know.

I'll get the ball rolling.

Let's go!

Everybody hungry?

I told him.

That's him for sure.

He strangled those girls?

A woman has a daughter

who disappeared yesterday.

Girl aged 16.

That's her.

See you soon.

Next time at our place.

Return match.

Take care.

Jean-Louis Maurel?

That's me.

Claire Linn,

I'm looking for Franck Adrien.

That's someone

I'd rather forget.

May I come in?

Certainly.

This is my wife,

Christine.

My little sweetie-pie.

It's Daddy.

I think I've told you everything.

He hasn't been

in touch with you?

If he had, I would've

called the police.

I was the victim

of a judicial mistake.

I wouldn't want to

help a criminal.

Is it true what

was reported?

The enquiry's underway,

madame.

Look carefully.

Is this the man that was at

the supermarket.

I don't think so.

What is it

I'm fed up, Alex.

Claire...

Claire inquired about

Jean-Louis Maurel.

Woman's intuition?

Maurel lives 20km from here.

What?

She's gone there.

Call her.

She's not contactable.

Should we go there?

I wish I could've

been more help.

Don't hesitate to call.

Will do.

So happy

to see you here.

I've missed you.

How did you find

our little nest?

It's cosy.

Thanks to you, Franck.

I'll never be able to

thank you enough.

You're my guardian angel.

He's got Amlie.

Trust me...he'll give her

back to us.

You know, Franck,

nobody understands

what I'm looking for.

Nobody.

Nobody.

Filthy scum!

It's all over, now.

We're all back together.

The whole family.

Not in front of her.

Drop your gun!

I said

drop your gun!

He's here...I've got him.

He wanted to kill us!

Don't move!

Jean-Louis!

Jean-Louis!

Get him!

he's got Amlie!

The cop?

I'll fix that.

Stop here.

You go on,

I'll take a look.

Would you like to walk on ahead, Amlie?

Don't go near the edge.

Stay close to Daddy.

You OK, Franck?

Maurel.

Maurel!

Don't move.

Drop your gun!

I've got the fugitive.

He's down there.

Maurel!

Help's coming.

Franck.

it's all over,

Amlie's safe.

Cri de douleur

There's extenuating circumstances.

Trust me.

I can't trust anyone.

It'll be the last time.

Who fired? You bastard!

It came from over there!

Drop it you bastard!

Drop your gun!

Don't move!

Raise your hands.

In the air!

Don't move!

take it easy.

Look along here.

That's it, thanks.

I'm here.

You OK?

Yes, thanks.

We've got Maurel.

Adrien's body must have gone further.

We'll find it.

You know, Claire...

No better.

Maurel's wife's

spilled the beans.

He was doing all the killing

and raping. Not Adrien.

She's admitted 8 murders,

but there's others.

Without Adrien,

there would have been more.

Go and tell him.

And say what?

I lack your woman's

intuition.

Thank you, Claire.

I tried to aim

for once

Three months later

She's solitary,

but she's hanging in there.

She's working better

with the speech therapist.

She's happy

when you come to see her.

You told me to tell you

about any mail.

She got a letter.

I have a photocopy.

From Morocco?

Just this, no words?

No, since she got the letter,

she's seemed happier.

Do you know who it's from?

Papa.
