03x02 - Clandestino

[bunniefuu]

[band playing]

La-la-la-la-la-la, ah!

One tiny suggestion.

Caviar mini-pizza. You remember?

The Russians?

No. I don't eat after 8. New regime.

Oh, come on. It's two minutes.

It's for charity.

No means no, remember?

And never means...

Just read from the note and try to smile.
And breathe.

Breathe and smile?

[music stops]

[applause]

Señoras y señores,

please welcome my brother and your host,

Señor Antoni Fuster.

Thank you all, er, for attending
our little charity function.

This, the third year of "Mallorca Loves,"

the Fuster family has always been honoured
to help those less fortunate.

I'll come with you.

There is nothing better than helping
everyone achieve their full potential.

We are on a journey to ensure that...

- Please.
- Mm-mm.

- Please.
- Go away.

[Antoni] And that's what "Mallorca Loves"
is all about.

Showing that we care.

[applause]

I don't know how you take it.
You run the entire business.

And then my husband just stands there
and takes all the credit.

It's tradition.
It's what my father would have wanted.

[applause]

And finally, thank you to our
esteemed mayor for all his support

over the past year. Pause for applause.
[laughter]

[applause]

- Max.
- Hm?

Mm.

[woman screams]

[distant commotion]

What happened?

It was him. That man. The mantero.

I'm a surgeon, let me have a look.

He attacked her.

[surgeon] Someone call an ambulance.

[Max] Stop! Call the police.

[dramatic music playing]

- [car horn honking]
- [man shouts in Spanish]

[woman speaking Spanish]

[Max] What the heck?

Max. Leg up.

Max.

Are you sure about this?

I guess you are.

I got this.

I'll, er, take the other way round, yeah?

[Miranda] Stop! Police!

[speaking Spanish]

[speaking Spanish]

[dramatic music continues]

[grunts]

Whoa!

[police siren wailing]

Suspect heading towards city centre.

Officers in pursuit. We need backup.
Especially me.

[tiles breaking]

[suspect grunting]

[panting]

No.

[sirens wailing in the distance]

♪ When the moonlight shines
Down on the sea ♪

♪ And you think that you've got
A shot at me ♪

♪ Better set me free ♪

♪ You gotta set me free ♪

♪ I surrender ♪

♪ I surrender ♪

[speaking Spanish]

Take as much time as you need.

Brandi wouldn't let go.
She shouted at him.

I tried to separate them,
then he pulled out a knife and...

So you touched him?

I scratched his face
to try and make him let go.

There may be some evidence we can use

so we're gonna need to take
some samples immediately.

Whatever it takes to find him.

We just went out for a cigarette.

No woman should die
for the contents of her handbag.

Felipe, please take my brother home.

Sí, señora.

- Unless you need to speak to him?
- [Max] No, no, no.

We can catch up with him later.

Where do you want me?

Follow me.

[Max] One phone.

Oh. Latest upgrade.

Car keys.

You know,
maybe we should be going electric.

I could suggest it to Inés.

Lose the BMW.

Finally.

Life before Instagram.

[Inés]
It's everywhere. Everywhere.

You know the Fuster family
are the richest on the island.

And that is a high bar.

Big donors to charity.

Brandi Fuster spent her entire life

campaigning for people who were
less fortunate than she was.

So, basically everyone?

Blake, you are intelligent.

I do my best.

So tell me, what am I about to say?

Find the person who did this
and arrest them?

Good. Good.

So, go!

Oh, can I just say, I also knew that.

[Max] So, our tactics are

to just walk around the city
and try and spot him.

[Miranda] No, Max.

[Max] Because I only have another, what,


No, we find the mantero and we ask them
to help us with our enquiry.

It's called good old-fashioned
police work.

You know they don't like police?

I've heard that a lot
of what they sell is...

It's counterfeit.

All we need is some information.

OK, you do it.

Yeah, I'll watch and learn.

OK.

[speaking Spanish]

[speaking French]

[speaking French]

Hmm...

[sighs]

Was that part of your plan, or...

[Roberto] Single stab wound
from below the xiphisternum

into the right ventricle.

Instantly fatal.

Whoever did this knew how to use a blade.

Any information on the weapon?

There is no evidence of serrations

where it glanced the rib cage,

and based on the size of the wound,

I would say
it's some kind of chef's knife.

Like those the manteros were selling.

What about DNA?

Ah! The results are on my iPad.

Oh. Big fan?

Professional research.

You know, she was an inspiring woman

although I would not expect you
to understand this.

Wow, that's a lot of research.

I'm surprised you even had time
for all the choppy-choppy.

I did get some very good samples
from underneath the witness' fingernail.

So that was, er, smart thinking.

Just more good old-fashioned police work.

Hmm?

There is no match on the database.

But if you find your suspect,

this evidence will tie him
to the crime one hundred percent.

So, now that I've done the choppy-choppy,

you can go finish the looky-findy. Hmm?

[Miranda mutters to herself]

[Spanish style music playing]

[Max] Guess if you're royalty,
you need a palace.

Please.

This way.

Señor Fuster was a wonderful man.

Very smart. Very strong.

His own way of thinking.

And Maria Fuster?

José's wife.

Her family have lived in this house
for generations.

There has been a Fuster on this land
ever since Columbus.

You said she was a Fuster.

So he took her name when they married?

Like I said, Señor José
always did things his own way.

A true original.

But it was still Antoni who inherited
the business, not Catalina?

Yeah, he was the eldest son.
This is tradition.

How long have you worked for the family?

I came here as a young woman, from Egypt.

Señor José employed me as a housekeeper.

When their mother died,
I helped look after the children.

Catalina is just like her father,
never stops. Hmm.

[speaking Spanish]

They threw him out of
the army and the family still help him.

You think he's grateful, huh?

And he let's you speak to him like that?

He has no choice. [laughs] He's my son.

[voices arguing in Spanish]

Señora. The police are here.

Please.

Everything OK?

I was just telling my brother
to let me look after him

and accept what's happened.

[Miranda] And you can't give us
any more information?

Anything you can think of may help.

I'm sorry.

I was panicking.

I just wanted to protect Brandi.

The sample you took? The DNA?

Can that help perhaps?

We were able to isolate enough
to have it tested

but we still need to match it
to a suspect.

I'm sorry, my brother is upset.

Have you made any progress?

Well, we're exploring
several promising leads, so, yeah.

Thank you, detective.

All we want is to see justice done.

[Max] All right. Yes, well,
thank you Nacho.

[sighs]

Nothing.

No CCTV, no witnesses, it's just like he,
[pops] disappeared.

Well, I guess if you're here illegally
you get good at hiding.

[sighs]

Old town market.

Local th*gs have beaten up
one of the manteros.

Possibly revenge
for Brandi Fuster's m*rder.

This situation is, is--
It's getting out of control.

You better get down there.

I don't talk to les flics.

Someone stabbed and k*lled a woman.

Now we've got all the evidence
we need to convict them.

I just need to find them.

You could have been k*lled.

All because of, what, one man.

One less immigrant to worry about. Right?

You were attacked because, yeah,
there are people on this island

who believe that every
street-seller is a criminal.

I don't.

So why are you protecting someone
who's giving everyone a bad name?

You don't owe him anything.

In fact, he almost cost you your life.

[pensive music playing]

I didn't talk to you.

Thank you.

[suspenseful music playing]

Hey. Remember the lookout?

Hola.

Hey, hey, hey, hey.

It's cool.

We just want to ask some questions.

I'm Max. This is Miranda.

What's your name?

Youseff.

But everyone calls me Flash!

Flash. I love it.

I think I need a nickname, right?

Max Power.

Or, er, the Winter Detective.

[clicks his tongue]

[sighs]

We're looking for a mantero.

About 5 foot 11. Tall, slim.

Apparently he lives close to here.

Possibly related to Spider-Man.

Oh, yes. I know him.

I know everyone around here.

Well, can you take us to him?

[sighs]

All right.

Er...

[sighs]

[Flash] Better keep up.

You're crazy, man. Mané is the greatest.

And how do Germany
even get to play in the World Cup?

Hey, hey,
this is intruding on private grief.

They suck. All the white guys suck.

[yells]

[chuckles]

Eh, Cecile.

Aren't you too young for girls?

Aren't you too old to be single?

- Excuse me?
- Right?

She's just picky.

Are we close?

[Flash] Sure. This way.

[Miranda] Where's he gone?

Damn it.

Hey!

Hey!

Er, Miranda?

[speaking Spanish]

Hey, guys. [laughs nervously]

[Miranda] How are you doing?

[man speaking Spanish]

Palma Police.

We're looking for a suspect.

The Fuster m*rder.

Clearly not true crime fans.

Also, they don't seem
to respect the badge.

Max.

[speaking Spanish]

Yes, now would be the good time
to send in that backup, yeah.

Yes, yes, yes, sure.
Ten guys would be fine, yeah.

All right. Oh, oh, oh--

Is Crazy Pedro there?

Yes? All right, OK, thanks.

[sighs]

Your move.

[speaking Spanish]

[exhales]

Well, one day I really need to put
some batteries in this thing.

Honestly, I can't blame them
for protecting him.

What, even if he k*lled someone?

No one looks after them
so they have to do it themselves.

It's just... life.

Try telling that to Inés.

Hmm. So...

What do we know about the manteros?

Oh, goody. I love a pub quiz.

How many points for this?

They all sell on the street.

But where do they get it?

"It" being?

- Sunglasses, handbags--
- Sharp knives?

If you run any business,
you need a supply chain.

Supply and demand in perfect harmony.

You realise we're watching
capitalism in action?

Mm. For so long.

This is a waste of time.

Don't you know that
every time you say that,

something interesting
immediately turns up?

[upbeat music playing]

♪ Flash! Ah-ah! ♪

I told you.

We wait for him to stock up

then follow him all the way back
to our suspect.

Like Hansel and Gretel
and the breadcrumbs.

You’re just pissed off
that my plan worked.

Well, don't you think they'd not just
recognise us and run away? Again.

Or just have us beaten to a pulp?

Don't move.

[upbeat music continues]

Hey guys. Hola, hola, hola.

Erm, I need two glasses

and, er, these are good hats,
aren't they? Perfect.

What's he doing?

[upbeat music continues]

[suspenseful music playing]

Hey, run!

Wait! No!

Not again.

You're fast, but you're not that fast.

Sadio Cisse.

We have samples of DNA
from Catalina Fuster's fingernails.

It's a perfect match
and it places you at the scene.

I didn't k*ll her.

Then why run?

- You're smart, you work it out.
- [Max] Hey, hey.

I get it. You don’t trust the cops.

But it doesn't help your case.

Can I ask a question?

- No.
- Sure.

It's not procedure.

Yeah, but the more he talks, the better.

[whispers loudly]
He might incriminate himself.

Do I look crazy?

Not really. No, no.

So if I'm not so crazy,

why would I stab a woman
who I just tried to sell to?

Right in front of a witness?

Why would he do that?

Well, she insulted him and he was angry.

In the heat of the moment
we can all do stupid things.

[Max] Mm.

OK. Let me explain everything again.

I see a woman laying on the ground.

I go over to see if I can help this woman.

Lying there, she looked bad.

And this other white woman
goes crazy at me.

She starts screaming and scratching at me.

People are coming so I back off.

Then she started to say
that I attack her friend.

Hmm... his story makes sense,
I give him that.

I was there. I just didn't k*ll her.

Then who did?

Isn't that your job?

So the press have found out
we made an arrest.

I know, don't ask me how.

So I have the mayor on the phone

wanting to know when he can
make an announcement.

You have a DNA match, a motive,

and a credible witness.

Just no weapon.

Well, it's still enough to charge him.

So do it,

and as soon as you've done it,
you go and tell the family

we have the k*ller.

Ah, listen--

No, I want this case closed. OK?

Detectives. Come in.

I understand you have good news for us.

Thank you, Zahra.

So, you've charged this creature?

The suspect will remain in custody
until after the trial, yes.

- [clears throat]
- [Catalina] This is such a relief.

These past few days have been...

Well, it's impossible to describe.

Poor Antoni has hardly slept.

Can we talk to him again?

He's in bed.

The doctor came with some pills.

But I think it was the news
that you have found Brandi’s k*ller

that finally allowed him
to rest, you know?

This family is forever in your debt.

[mellow music playing]

Something’s still bugging me
about all this.

- Let me guess. You've got a hunch.
- [sighs]

Then pray silence for the professor
of human nature.

Sadio is right.

This crime makes no sense.

To k*ll someone,
right in front of a witness.

And for what?

A handbag.

[sucks teeth] Something here doesn't fit.

Or maybe you just don't want it
to be true?

Yeah. Yeah, maybe.

But still, it--

It feels like we're missing a motive here.

OK.

Hypothetically, if I go
with this theory,

what do we do next?

Ha-ha. You think the same as me.

Yes, I can tell.

Miranda Blake
and the Winter Detective

are in harmony at last.

You're changing, you know?

Last year you would laugh
one of my hunches off the pitch,

but now, we're just like
a real married couple.

Oof, OK, that's a lot to unpack.

Hard no to married couple,
real or otherwise.

And the Winter Detective?
We are never ever going there

no matter how many times you say it.

And finally, all I'm admitting to

is the possibility that we have
just charged an innocent man, OK?

But if you want this case to stay open,
we need to move. Fast.

Let's do this.

[Roberto] Every contact leaves a trace.

But that is all DNA--

DNA tells you.

The nature of that contact...?

So, Sadio's story could be true.

I know he was there,

but what he did?
With no weapon, it's impossible to say.

Find me the knife and I can help you.

OK. [speaking Spanish]

We could run
the crime scene search again.

Try and find the m*rder weapon.

I mean, it's a long shot. [sighs]

And if Inés found out we're still working
this case, then, well,

we'd find out if she went up to 11.

Amazing.

Every day, every hour,
just posting, posting, posting.

She lived her entire life online.

And this helps us how?

Because it's all right here.

On Brandi Fuster's phone.

Her entire digital footprint.

Every post, every WhatsApp, every TikTok.

The last five years.

If there's a motive for her m*rder,
it has to be in here.

All we need to do is find it.

[sighs]

[suspenseful music playing]

[whispers] Wake up.

The Winter Detective has the answer.

I told you
to never say that ever again.

Guess what?

We have a motive.

These are to her lawyer.

She was divorcing him.

Brandi was leaving Antoni.

Mrs. Fuster was a client, yes,
but I don't see how this is relevant.

[Miranda] She was m*rder*d--

During a street robbery.

I understand the police
have already charged someone?

[Max] Yes, that was us.

But we have some...

supplementary questions.

Maybe I should check with your Inspector?

Because I’ve had press
with fake IDs try things before.

Brandi asked you to help her, didn’t she?

You exchanged messages.

And she was searching divorce advice sites
three days before she got k*lled.

I can't comment.

She was also googling how to get out
of a prenuptial agreement.

Sort of paints a picture.

It's true. Brandi came to see me.

But she wanted advice
on a contract matter.

Some donors for her charitable trust
were trying to pull out of a commitment.

She wanted to sue them, that's all.

Nothing about any divorce.

And you have a record
of this conversation?

I can show you my written notes, yes.

But we don't record
our clients, detective.

For obvious reasons.

Do you believe her?

We can't prove that she's lying, Max.

And Inés isn't going to
wait for us to try.

Excuse me! Excuse me.

I saw you just now.

Can I talk to you?

But not here.

I knew it was her.

I couldn't believe it,
I follow her on Instagram,

but everyone knew Brandi.

She was really inspiring.

You said you had some information for us?

[exhales] Brandi was terrified.

She wanted out of her marriage.

And you know this how?

The way she was speaking,
her body language. She was shaking.

Brandi made Veronica promise
not to say anything.

Veronica tried to reassure her, but...

when she left the office,
she was almost in tears.

I was going to ask for a selfie, but...

I mean, it didn't seem appropriate.

Ay! Sorry, I have to go.

I only get 30 minutes for lunch.

I really hope you catch the person
who did this.

Brandi didn't deserve to die
for a handbag.

Gracias.

How many handbags
do you think Brandi Fuster owned?

More than one.

Less than a million. Probably.

But the divorce theory is back on.

Prenup or no prenup.

She’s going to take Antoni
for his fortune.

Why not just let him have it?

You have spare keys,
you can buy a new phone.

Why die for it?

Unless you knew there was something inside
that couldn't be replaced?

[suspenseful music playing]

Oh, that's Zahra.

She's hot.

The weather. She looks hot.

Hmm...

[Miranda] What's that?

"July 1979, Malaga."

That's José Fuster.

Oh...

"October, 1979, Palma."

Oh, that's José again.

With the same man.

Wait.

Here. See.

There. That's him.

Guiseppe Penino.

[Miranda] Why is José Fuster
being photographed with a mafia boss?

What's the link?

Well, I know a man who might know.

That's if he'll talk to me.

[man] I remember.

There were rumours, that's all.

Fuster had connections of course,
but no one could prove anything.

So they just ignored it?

Well, he was a generous man, you know?

Big donations to every cause.

Back then Mallorca was not a rich place.

People on the island got what they needed.

And conveniently forgot
where the money came from.

Hmm...

We should check the records.

All the way back.
There could be something.

Gracias, Joan.

Erm... have you spoken to Carmen?

Of course, I'm her father.

She's doing well. Very well.

Good.

Well, erm, thank you for this.

[Miranda] Max!

[Miranda] OK,
we found this in the archive.

Back in the late '70s,
José Carlos worked for the Camorra.

Italian mafia.

Penino was the boss,
Carlos was his number two.

Drugs, protection,
but mainly human trafficking.

When Penino was k*lled in a mob feud
Carlos knew he needed to get out fast.

So he fled to Mallorca with his money

and he married into a local family.

The Fusters.

The Fuster family were kaput.

Not a penny to their name.

But she had history. Lots of it.

So José took Maria Fuster's name
and effectively disappeared.

Then he used the dirty money
to start a new business,

and from the start
they gave to all these good causes,

trying to look whiter than white.

[Max] But Brandi must have
discovered the truth.

The entire Fuster fortune was built
from profits from human trafficking

and she was part of it.

That's why she went to the lawyer.

She was going to leave Antoni
and reveal the truth.

But what she didn't realise was the family
had even more influence

than she suspected.

So Veronica Luis, the lawyer,
told Antoni exactly what was happening.

And so he hired a mantero
to have his wife k*lled

and make it look like a street robbery.

While he was in the middle of a speech
for the family charity.

It's the perfect alibi. [pops]

That's a-- That's a wonderful story.

Really interesting.

But can you prove any of it?

I see. And, unless I'm missing something,

according to your theory,

we still have the k*ller
in our cells, right?

Charge the mantero with m*rder.

[sighs]

OK. Catalina claims to be
the only witness

but what if someone else saw something?

We asked for statements, Max.

No one else at the party came forward.

Maybe we're asking the wrong people.

Hey. Remember us?

Oh, no-- It's OK.

It's OK, we just want to talk to you.

It's about your brother. Sadio.

Listen, Flash. We know he didn't do this.

Sadio and I were always the last to leave.

Hard worker, hmm.

How are you eating?

We'd saved a little.

I'm selling now. Don't worry about me.

We know you were watching.

Did you see anything at all, Flash?

Talking to us
is your brother's only chance.

Otherwise, he's going to prison
for a very long time.

I was watching. It was empty.

But there was one man.

[Max] Can you describe him?

He was big.

Like he worked out.
He was wearing a grey suit.

Short hair at the back and sides.

Psst. Flash.

Let's go.

[Catalina] Brandi!

Brandi.

Go home. Now.

[Catalina] Help!

Help. Help me, please.

Sadio said that as soon as
he went to help,

the woman started screaming
and scratching at his face so he ran.

If you saw who k*lled her,
why didn’t you tell us at the time?

No one would have believed us.

That's why we hide.

Not because we are guilty.

We hide because we are innocent.

[Max sighs] OK, here's the theory.

Antoni pays Felipe to k*ll his wife.

He has the perfect alibi.

But there's still one thing
that doesn't fit.

Catalina.

She still insists
a mantero was responsible.

She doesn't smoke.

OK.

Do you remember when we went to the house?

Zahra was telling Felipe off for smoking
because Catalina hated it.

[speaking Spanish]

She told us that she and Brandi
went out for a cigarette that evening.

And do you remember the argument?

[arguing in Spanish]

[Miranda] Catalina was saying
somebody had to take care of the family.

That's what they were arguing about.

Antoni had just found out what she'd done.

So Catalina goes with Brandi.
Felipe's waiting.

She knows that the mantero's there.

This way she's the only eyewitness.

[Miranda] And it would always be her word
against a mantero.

And who are they going to believe?
Mallorcan royalty or an ill*gal immigrant?

Try and put Flash on the stand,
their lawyers will destroy him.

Roberto told us we needed a weapon.

So why don't we find it?

[suspenseful music playing]

You sure about this?

If it doesn't work...

But then an innocent man goes to prison
for the rest of his life, Max, so, yeah,

I'm sure. Are you?

Of course.

[Miranda] The only missing link from
the chain of evidence

was the m*rder weapon.

If Sadio Cisse's DNA was on the knife

then there'd be no doubt
that he was Brandi's k*ller.

We looked for it at the scene
but we couldn't find it.

But then we cast the net further afield.

Literally. Last night
we searched the harbour.

And... we caught something.

[Miranda] Of course we've had it analysed.
There's DNA on the knife.

Blood from Brandi on the blade,

but also some trace evidence
on the handle.

And we matched it to the army records
of Felipe Cubo.

Felipe.

See! You didn't take care of anything.

Shut up you fool.

I told you. You're insane.

[dramatic music playing]

I've got this.

[dramatic music continues]

Felipe Cubo. I'm arresting you

for the m*rder of Brandi Fuster.

[Inés] So, this...?

Is just another kitchen knife
sold by a mantero.

But now we know where the real one is,

it's just a matter of time
before we find it.

And put Catalina Fuster behind bars
for conspiracy to m*rder.

Ah! Just for the record,

if this had gone wrong,

I would have fired you both.

Mm.

- Understood.
- Yep. You would have had no choice.

Yes.

Thank you.

Hey.

[chuckles]

You take good care of yourself, OK?

And I don't want to see you
on any more rooftops, yeah?

Have to catch me first.

[laughs]

Yeah.

- There you go.
- Ooh.

- Gracias.
- Mm.

[Max sighs]

Can you tell her you were joking?

About what?

Replacing her with an electric car.

- [chuckles]
- She's very sensitive.

- Seriously?
- Seriously.

I'm very sorry.

Louder.

She's old.

[in loud voice] I'm very sorry.

There. I told you.

You know, I really think
we’re a great team.

The perfect match.

Thanks, Max.

- I do too.
- I was talking to the car.

[Max] Next time
on the Mallorca Files...

Wow.

[man] Ramon Silva is Europe's most
notorious and successful con man.

People who get too close to him
tend to, to disappear.

[man] You two are going to be
his next victims.

I got a new job. It's in Madrid.

I think you need to kiss me.

Not a lot of brains.

Don't worry, me too.
