that's who we'd like to see.

Right, then, folks,
who do we have here?

sat together in one of these stalls.

Not necessarily.

Two men together, no.

with a young man.

210
00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:38,320
It was before her show.
Her boyfriend? He wanted to be,

211

this boyfriend, Janvier. He is key.

All the girls get the benefit
of Fred's attention.

Apparently, she doesn't mind.

The girl came to us for protection.

She told us her name was Arlette.

But what she actually wanted

246

was for someone to keep her safe.

I was told she was very good.

348
00:27:05,740 --> 00:27:09,540
Was she one of your patients?
I have no idea... What about Oscar?

349
00:27:09,580 --> 00:27:14,060
Was he one of yours? Look,
I've never been to this rat club,

350

any of these people.

Hm. Him you do know.

It begins with a P.

356
00:27:35,060 --> 00:27:37,380
Where does he live? No idea.

357
00:27:37,420 --> 00:27:39,820
Never spoke to him.

358
00:27:44,700 --> 00:27:48,980
It's possible he has the room above
the Countess. But he's never there.

359
00:27:49,020 --> 00:27:52,980
He spends the nights with his
clients, wherever they want to go.

360

There isn't a room above
the Countess. Up in the loft.

She lets the boy use it.

between the Countess and Arlette.

00:29:06,660 --> 00:29:08,620
Did they have anything in common?

368

Why are we still talking
about Arlette?

369
00:29:10,580 --> 00:29:12,300
Why can't we find out
her real name?

370
00:29:12,340 --> 00:29:16,260
She didn't want us to know who
she was. Didn't want anyone to know.

371
00:29:16,300 --> 00:29:19,060
She didn't want Oscar to know
where she was.

372
00:29:19,100 --> 00:29:22,740
You're assuming Oscar and the
boyfriend are different people? No.

373
00:29:22,780 --> 00:29:27,100
I'm merely remembering that when
she cried out his name in her sleep,

374
00:29:27,140 --> 00:29:29,500
it wasn't with joy.

375
00:29:29,540 --> 00:29:31,940
She was terrified.

it actually makes things worse,

00:39:29,460 --> 00:39:32,900
because Oscar's carrying a wound

509
00:39:32,940 --> 00:39:37,100
and he'll want to find who did that
to him, because they've seen him.

510
00:39:38,860 --> 00:39:41,140
He's got another person to kill.

Right, Arlette was not Arlette,

onto that very quickly, please.

Not on her back.

517
00:40:06,100 --> 00:40:10,260
Some of the scars date back years
and look like cigarette burns.

518
00:40:10,300 --> 00:40:13,740
Who was doing that to her? And why?

519
00:40:15,580 --> 00:40:19,300
Where's Philippe? The gentleman
was in when I called round,

520
00:40:19,340 --> 00:40:23,140
but he promptly did a bunk out
the window, but he won't get far.

521
00:40:23,180 --> 00:40:26,260
He's a junky chasing a fix,
looking for trade.

522
00:40:26,300 --> 00:40:30,020
The one photo that we have got
of him, I've given to the uniforms.

523
00:40:30,060 --> 00:40:33,860

Well, you won't find him here.

You've found me now.

Ah. This is epic.
What is?

532
00:42:44,620 --> 00:42:47,540
This correspondence from Nice.

533
00:42:47,580 --> 00:42:49,580
Count to Countess.

534
00:42:49,620 --> 00:42:53,100
Elderly gentleman of rarefied taste
salutes his child bride.

535
00:42:53,140 --> 00:42:55,420
It's really very sweet.

536
00:42:55,460 --> 00:42:59,740
How did he die?
Ah. Well, not quite so romantic.

537
00:42:59,780 --> 00:43:04,460
The press reports say the Count fell
from the balcony, ten floors up.

538
00:43:04,500 --> 00:43:07,380
The coroner says:
a fit of dizziness.

539
00:43:07,420 --> 00:43:11,380
The world says: the old boy jumped.

540
00:43:11,420 --> 00:43:14,660
Why, if they were so happy?
Well, they started happy,

541
00:43:14,700 --> 00:43:19,460
but ended up in hell. The second
year of marriage he started on her.

542
00:43:19,500 --> 00:43:23,340
Nothing she could do was right.
Reading between the lines, I think

543
00:43:23,380 --> 00:43:26,140
he was a rather
nasty piece of work.

544
00:43:26,180 --> 00:43:30,340
And anyway, the note here
from the hotel manager

545
00:43:30,380 --> 00:43:34,140
of the St Simon suggests
that six months after the funeral

546
00:43:34,180 --> 00:43:38,060
she was broke.
Er, she cut and ran to Paris

547
00:43:38,100 --> 00:43:41,860
where she fell into bad company
and paid the price.

548
00:43:41,900 --> 00:43:45,100
Do we think that the Count
might've been pushed?

549
00:43:45,140 --> 00:43:48,540
That is not suggested
in these documents.

550

Yes.

00:44:09,060 --> 00:44:11,460
Well, they wouldn't have.

557
00:44:11,500 --> 00:44:15,660
Why's that? Because
she wasn't that sort of girl.

I only met her three times,

but that can be enough, can't it?

575
00:45:27,260 --> 00:45:29,260
Yes, that can be enough.

576

The first time we met
it was professional, you know?

577
00:45:33,060 --> 00:45:36,180
I was just a punter,
buying the Champagne.

578

the last time..

580

we connected.

581
00:45:45,540 --> 00:45:49,340
We really connected.
What did you talk about?

582
00:45:50,380 --> 00:45:52,740
Arlette didn't want
to talk about herself.

583
00:45:53,980 --> 00:45:57,380
She said,
"Just like me as I am now."

584
00:45:58,460 --> 00:46:01,460
I told her I'd have liked her
as she was then,

585
00:46:02,740 --> 00:46:06,620
but she said, "No, you wouldn't."

586
00:46:10,220 --> 00:46:13,340
She was, um, born in a town
called Lisieux.

587

Her aunt makes frocks,

588
00:46:16,460 --> 00:46:19,940
I think. She said nothing
about life at the club?

589
00:46:23,620 --> 00:46:27,500
Only that Alfonsi's wife
had been kind to her.

590

(SNIFFLES) She was kind
to all the girls.

You were there last night
with Arlette?

Earlier in the evening I was, but
I couldn't stay for her first set,

593
00:46:41,500 --> 00:46:46,300
so she must've gone straight from
the club to the Quai. To you.

have been an Oscar? (SNIFFLES)

mean anything to you?

Anything else
in that last conversation? Think.

599
00:47:09,260 --> 00:47:11,940
Arlette had this brooch.

600
00:47:11,980 --> 00:47:15,300
It was an emerald, very classy.

601
00:47:15,340 --> 00:47:20,340

She said, "It was given me,

was how to sew.

Oh, I didn't. But I do now.

686
00:53:50,020 --> 00:53:53,140
So that's your problem, isn't it?

687
00:53:54,180 --> 00:53:56,660
He killed her,

688
00:53:58,220 --> 00:54:00,700
but he didn't quite kill you.

689
00:54:01,900 --> 00:54:03,980
And now you're scared.

690
00:54:04,020 --> 00:54:06,220
I'd like a lawyer, please.

691
00:54:06,260 --> 00:54:10,420
I'm sure you would. You probably know
a few lawyers, in your line of work.

692
00:54:10,460 --> 00:54:13,540
But I wouldn't rely
on these professional people

693
00:54:13,580 --> 00:54:15,860
to rally to your cause.

694
00:54:15,900 --> 00:54:20,340
Take Dr Bloch, for instance.
He gave you up

695
00:54:20,380 --> 00:54:22,260
like that. (CLICK)

"Give me morphine."

702
00:54:42,260 --> 00:54:44,340
Well, I can't,

703
00:54:44,380 --> 00:54:48,260
but what I can do
is to set you free.

704
00:54:49,460 --> 00:54:53,460
Tell me what I need to know,
Philippe, and you can leave

705
00:54:53,500 --> 00:54:57,140

someone else to terrorise.

working at the hotel St Simon.
That's going back a bit.

01:00:48,980 --> 01:00:53,900
Indeed. I need information about some
people who were permanent residents:

794

the Count and Countess von Farnheim.

He did.

01:01:05,580 --> 01:01:10,140
She ran off somewhere.
She came here, in fact. To Paris.

798
01:01:10,180 --> 01:01:12,980
Did she? I never knew that.

We're trying to trace Oscar and are

I was hoping you may be able to give
me a physical description of him.

now and then, but I put up with it,

and I do the job by sonar.

Yeah. Like they have in submarines.

by his voice? I did.

arguing in the market the other day.

Would it worry you if it were?

yes. What did he do to her?

821

He turned her into a whore.

At the St Simon it was Oscar.
He was well-placed, you see.

01:02:55,340 --> 01:02:59,220
He'd drive the hotel Bentley to
the station to collect the guest.

you can get me a girl."

Goodness knows what he wants.

to be very, very careful.

wherever you go we will go.
