[seagulls squawking]

[waves rolling softly]

- [man] Hi, Rami!
- [Rami] Hey there!

[squawking and waves continue]

[ominous music playing]

[birds squawking]

- [man] Speak! Speak!
- [Tarek] Where is she?

- [bird squeals]
- [screams silently]

[silent scream continues]

- [electricity buzzing]
- [Rami screams]

Goddammit! Speak!

- Stop.
- [Rami sighs]

[muffled hip-hop music
playing in background]

- [sighs]
- Where is she?

You think their loyalty's for sale?

I know Marseille.

In Marseille,

there's only traitors.

Where is she?

They say "merci,"
then they f*ck you in the ass.

So then, what?

Let'em come.

To them, you're just a little
German fucker who can't speak Arabic.

[Tarek] Sharif!

- [electricity buzzes]
- [Rami screams]

- [screaming stops]
- [coin falls, rattles]

[bell rings]

[bell rings rapidly]

[Charly in French] Bonjour.

[in English] Were you here all night?

It's possible.

Something went down here.

Something always goes down here.

[suspenseful music playing]

My wife and my son were in their room.

[clears throat]

[Charly] Then, a man came
and wanted to take them away.

Did you see anything at all?

He wanted to take them away.

But they ended up taking him instead.

What the hell are you saying?

Your guy...

They dragged your guy out of here.

Who did it?

Who?

[suspenseful music continues]

The Algerians.

Do you know who they are?

The man's name is Sharif.

He deals downtown,

but he lives up in the North Quarter.

They all live up there.

[suspenseful music continues]

[dramatic music intensifies]

Now what?

Now we gotta get Rami free.

Find out where my family is
and what the hell's going on here.

Well, how are you gonna do that?

- [man] It's fine.
- [man 2] Understand what I'm saying?

Come on.

[ship horn blows]

And the guy we're looking for,
you were both in prison here in Marseille?

Yeah.

His name is Casper.

I'm sure he'll be here soon.

And what business is Casper in?

What do you mean?

He's a criminal.

Alright, let's do this.

- [hip-hop music playing]
- [men chatter]

[man] Yo, Papa!

[man] Papa!

[music and chattering continue]

[man] Papa!

[Joseph] This Casper guy
is a friend of yours?

[Charly] I never said that.

- [man 1] Got any more?
- [man 2] Those, and more over there.

[man 2] These are the best in Marseille.

[dramatic music playing]

[grunts]

I wanna pay my debts.

[dramatic music continues]

[music ends]

[laughing]

[laughing]

This is Joseph.

Hi, Joseph. [laughs]

Hey!

[Charly laughs]

m*therf*cker.

[both laugh]

- [seagulls squawking]
- [man 3] Bring that rope when you're done.

Look, man, I'm done with that dude.

But it's your lucky day.

I hate Sharif.

It's not free, though.
Despite that. [sniffs]

I can't pay you.

For me, it's personal,
but without money, you won't get far.

- Gimme the coin.
- What for?

Gimme the damn coin.

This is extremely valuable.

Three million euros.

[suspenseful music playing]

[Casper] I'm not a collector.

[music continues]

[Joseph] Charly.

- What are you doing?
- You gotta tell me when you need money.

My cut.

[laughing]

[all laughing]

[dramatic music continues]

NORTH QUARTER - MARSEILLE

[music ends]

[motorcycle revving]

[French hip-hop music playing]

[muffled music continues]

[man] Right here.

I said I'm here!

Hey, Jamal!

Do you believe Rami?

That he doesn't know where the woman is?

Doesn't matter.

Man, I'm telling you, Tarek,
if the Corsicans have them,

they belong to them now,
and it's game over. Done. Sorry.

Sharif, you don't understand.

I don't only need the German.

I need his whole family.

[laughs]

You need a brain.

Do you want them to
cut you into little pieces? Huh?

Don't mess with the Corsicans
here in Marseille.

You hear me?

Idiot!

[Tarek] Shh...

[door opens]

- [door closes]
- [Tarek] Stop wasting my time.

[suspenseful music playing]

Answer!

- Sharif!
- Okay.

- [Tarek] Sharif!
- I need a telephone.

- Telephone.
- [Tarek] Ready to talk?

- [sighs]
- [Tarek] Yeah?

Just give me a phone.

You've got one chance.

[tense music playing]

- [man 1] We got incoming. Hey, hey!
- [man 2] What's up, man?

[man 3] Hey, what's up? Go ahead, man.

[men chattering]

[motorcycle engine revving]

[tense music continues]

[music ends]

[hip-hop music playing in background]

[engine turns off]

[Joseph] Well?

- All good, man? Perfect.
- [man] Yeah.

[Charly] There are people everywhere.

- Is that really typical?
- They must have a VIP in there somewhere.

How are we gonna figure out
where the f*ck he is?

It's 500,000 square feet.

Joseph could go in
and pretend to be a plumber.

- What do you mean, man?
- They'd buy it, he looks like Super Mario.

[laughs]

[Casper and men laugh]

[man] "Super Mario," ha, ha, ha.

[man 2] Super Mario!

Aren't you quite the comedian,
this Casper, huh? f*ck you.

[cell phone ringing]

[ringing continues]

- Rami.
- He's likely not alone.

- [ringing continues]
- [ominous music playing]

- [phone beeps]
- Rami?

[Rami] Hey, Charly. You alright?
Are you in Marseille yet?


I've been trying to reach you.

[ominous music continues]

- I was at the bar. I was very busy.
- Okay. Where is Samira?

- Do you know where Samira is at?
- She is safe.

Yeah, come to my flat
and then, um, we'll go to her.

Your address is still the same, right?
Rue Cotignac?


Yeah, 78, first floor.

About how much time do you need?

I'm gonna be a while.

I've, uh... I've got
a few problems here, you know?

I'll give you a call
just before I get there, Rami.

Okay.

[suspenseful music playing]

Wasn't so hard?

Sharif, send some of your guys
to that address. Now.

You are aware that's a trap, right?

There's also plastic on the floor
at 78 "Cognac" or whatever.

I know where he lives.
That's not his address.

He doesn't live on 78.

That was a code.

Yeah, but the 78th floor
makes no sense at all.

[Charly] He meant
the seventh or eighth floor.

I gotta find a way in there.

Casper, distract them.

[hip-hop music continues]

[music ends]

- [birds squawking]
- [waves crashing]

- [Jonas] I can throw higher, wait.
- Show me.

[Jonas] Watch out.

[Jonas grunts]

[Samira] Whoa!

Oh, that went really, really far!

Continue, [in French] joue.

[in English]
There's plenty of pebbles here.

[speaking French]

[speaking French]

[man in English]
They don't speak French, Madame.

[in English] Well...

Have you heard from Rami?

- Negative.
- Hmm.

First, he makes us take hostages,
then disappears.

I should never have put any of my trust
in that vile, little worm.

And you, [in French] petit bonhomme,

[in English] I'm sure we have
a football somewhere and a place to play.

Or maybe you want to swim?

We're not here to have fun.

We want to leave.

Hmm.

Maybe later.

But you must be hungry.

[suspenseful music playing]

I'm going to make you a sandwich myself,
and then I will show you the house.

And your room.

[suspenseful music continues]

[man] I don't want to hear another word,
you're suspended until further notice.

- Now get out and shut the door behind you!
- Thanks.

- Well?
- [Nina sighs]

The commission started an investigation.
For now, I'm suspended.

[Robert] sh*t.

But you were right about taking action,

and this stupid commission
will come to the same conclusion.

- Yeah, we'll see.
- Yeah.

One dead Russian, two missing Bachofners.

- You may have prevented something worse.
- Yeah, well.

Thanks, Robert.

I better get going.

Where are you going?

- Marseille.
- [Robert] Nina.

Don't make me ask if you're doing this

because you think
the stupid coin's in Marseille.

Please, Nina.

Don't do this.

[Nina] I'll text you.

[ominous music playing]

Nina?

You know, doing this
won't bring him back to life again.

[tense music intensifies]

f*ck!

[tense music continues]

Kevan, what's going on?

What the f*ck are you doing?

What's going on with you?
You trying to f*ck with me or what?

You gotta put out the fire.
I don't wanna see anyone out here.

- What is this? A w*r?
- Yes, it is w*r! Are you stupid or what?

[man] Alright, alright.

Use your brain, bro!

[men chattering]

The hell is happening, bro?

What's wrong with you?

- Didn't you hear what he said? Move it!
- [man] Chill out!

[Kevan] Inside, now! Now! Move it!

f*cking assh*le!

f*ck!

[Kevan] Move it, m*therf*cker!

Move, move!

Here we go, here we go.

Yeah, just a little bit, maybe.
Little more. Bottoms up!

[snorts loudly]

[man] Right there, right there.

[engine turns off]

[car door opens]

[ominous music playing]

[Kevan] Hey, old man!

Huh?

Are you playing with me, bro?

- Watch it.
- [Kevan] Motherfurcker,

this guy's playing games right now!

Who are you? Tell me!

[ominous music continues]

[Kevan] What? What? What? What?

What? You wanna play games with me, bro?

Hey! Hassan!

Brother.

Peace be with you.

I'm glad you're here.

Enough, enough. He's family.

Go f*ck yourself.

Come, come, brother. Come, this way.

- How are you? How was the drive?
- [Hassan] It was good. Thanks.

[music continues]

An old man.

It was just a pathetic old man
who orchestrated the whole thing.

But he did have some final words.

Where's the German? Hmm?

[music intensifies]

He can't come. I've mentioned Charly.
You, however, they cannot see.

- You're invisible.
- I am not invisible,

- and if you want, I can prove it.
- Listen to me.

Where we're headed now,
there's some serious sh*t waiting for us.

You'll need to stay here
and save us from that sh*t.

Do you understand?
They don't know you exist.

And what do you want me to do?
How will you let me know?

What if they take your phone
away from you?

[suspenseful music playing]

Rami, give me your cell phone.

[suspenseful music continues]

Are you in much pain?

Everywhere.

Do you recall
when I asked you for a favor?

I thought my family would be safe here.

That you'd be my savior.

[music continues]

It's the other way around,
Charly, as always.

You're my savior.

Enough, enough. Let's go.

Follow me!

Follow me now.

[music ends]

You're amazing.

Driving here all night.
I'm glad you're safe.

But you know what?

It was exactly the right thing to do.

Well, let's pick out a car
because I have to go back to the harbor.

- Joseph?
- Yeah?

Forgive me.
