- You do not look anything like your father.
- Some people say that I do.
- Hmrn, people say all kinds of things.
Tell lies to try and connect,
to make you like them.
When did people stop being honest?
- What do you want'?
- Your only use to me was to find Natalie.
Mug.
(m giedm»
I have the French detective, a man who finds missing things,
looking for the money.
He will work quickly, he knows his family's in danger.
- Okay-
- I took this bag with me
when I went to see your father.
And used this
(tense music)
to separate him.
- You think he's gonna give the money to you
after you threatened his wife'?
He was a detective, he thinks like a detective,
he's just gonna pass the money straight to the police.
- None of this is your concern anymore.
- Baptiste trusts me.
I will stick by him.
If he finds the money, when he finds the money,
I will make sure that it comes back to you.
- You make me promises
when all you have done is to fail'?
- Just let me try.
Doesn't cost you anything to let me try, does it'?
Really'?
Please?
Wm begging ,
- Stop, you are embarrassing us both.
24 hours to bring baok what you took from me.
- Okay-
- If you fail,
then you will end up looking like your father.
- Yeah.
- [Constantin] You understand?
- Yeah.
- I've never talked about it.
Not with anyone.
There were so many times with close friends,
after a few drinks, that I, I wanted to, but uh,
I kept it with me.
- VVas I one of those people
you thought of telling the truth to
or did it never cross your mind'?
- I hated you, Julien.
I loved you and I wasn't enough for you.
And when I met Stefan, it was too late.
I was already pregnant.
He loved me.
He saved me.
Niels is helping you find this money.
You will be spending time with him.
You have to promise me, Julien, you will not tell him.
- VVell I, uh, it's not my place, I know that.
- [Martha] lvlm-hmm.
- Except, uh--
- Except what'?
- Doesn't everyone deserve to know who their father is'?
- It's not your secret to tell.
- But you know as vvell as I that secrets can be a poison.
- Not if they remain a secret, they don't.
- All I ask is that you consider saying something.
It's up to him to do with it what he pleases,
but the choice should be his to make, no'?
- Her strong sense that neither she nor any human being
deserved less than was given
did not blind her to the fact
that there were others receiving less
who had deserved much more.
And in being forced to class herself among the fortunate,
she did not cease to wonder
at the persistence of the unforeseen.
(door rattles loudly)
- How dare you'?
How dare you come here'?
(tense music)
How long have you been coming'?
- I just wanted to see him.
- Oh, and you think he's just sitting there
silently waiting for the next chapter?
Praying that his mistress will come back
to finish reading him a story'?
Do you think my husband has any idea
of what is going on around him'?
_ Qkay, I'm going.
- Yes, you should go.
You should be out there finding the people who did this.
The last person he needs reading to him like a little child
is the woman who put hirn in the chair in the first place.
(dramatic music)
(Genevieve sighs)
(phone ringing)
- Mr. Stratton, it's Officer Genevieve Taylor.
- [Edward] Oh yeah, what do you want from me now'?
- Mr. Stratton, it's important.
Tell me where you are, and I can come to you.
- [Edward] I really have no time for this.
- Yeah, but you're gonna want to hear what I have to say.
(Julien sighs)
(gram minim)»
(Niels sighs)
- Good afternoon.
- You okay'?
- Uh, yeah, sorry, I'm, I'm tired, that's all.
I promised urn, Edward Stratton
we would collect him on our way.
- I know I am here unofficially,
and the help you're offering Mr. Stratton
is your business but--
- You are concerned about bringing him along'?
- VVell, everything that's happened to him,
the stress he's under,
I mean he, he, he could be a liability.
- True, but I'd rather have hirn beside rne than on his own
wheat,
(tense music)
- He's a desperate man.
That's all I'm saying.
And desperate men are unpredictable.
- Yeah, so they are.
(( Mag)
- [Niels] So, where does the tulip farmer live'?
(dramatic music)
- What was so important?
- I need you to meet Constantin Baracu,
and I need you to wear a recording device.
- I told you on the phone, I'm on a deadline.
I have 24 hours, and unless I'm imagining the whole thing,
I thought we'd already been through this.
- Forensics have been to your house.
They've tested every corner of the place,
of your father's remains, but they found nothing.
No fingerprints, no DNA,
nothing that links it to Constantin.
But you, Edward, you are the best chance I've had
in a very fucking long time to get something on him.
- What if I say no'?
(Genevieve sighs)
- If you say no, I'll have you arrested.
- Arrested, what for'?
- The murder of Natalie Rose.
The girl you claimed to be your niece.
- She drowned.
Why would you even suggest that'?
- You lied to the police about who you were.
The two of you were involved in stealing
a serious amount of money from the Brigada Serbilu.
The case could be made.
- And no one would ever believe it, it's ridiculous.
- Maybe, but in the meantime I'll bring Baptiste in.
Take his statement about Natalie.
And while he's doing that,
you're deadline with Constantin expires.
- You wouldn't, you can't.
If he doesn't have that money--
- You help me, and I won't stop Julien Baptiste
trying to find what you're looking for.
Help me and then at least you get something.
(engine rumbling)
What do you say'?
- I say is it too early to have a bloody drink'?
- I am done pissing about here, Mr. Stratton.
Make a choice.
- Not really a choice, though, is it'?
- No, it's not.
(tense music)
Arrange a meeting, today.
I'll be in touch.
(patrons chattering)
- I can't come with you.
- She wishes to use you to get to them'?
- Yeah, seems like everywhere I go at the moment,
someone's trying to blackmail me.
You can find the money, right'?
I see you've got help.
- We'll find the money.
I have to, Edward.
Just promise rne you've told rne everything?
- Everything I've told you is the truth.
- Hmm.
Take care.
(dramatic music)
- [Niels] How are your family managing with all this'?
- Each day they are in that safe house,
I am reminded they are there because of me,
and will be there a great deal longer
if we do not find that money.
- We better find it then.
<( Fm)
- Mr. de Boer.
<( Fm)
- Do you speak English?
My name is Julien Baptiste.
- Detective Niels Horchner.
Can we come in'?
- Mr. de Been you you know why we are here.
Your grandson, you have him, yes'?
- He's in the other room, sleeping.
He is recovering from an operation.
Please don't take him away from me.
His father, my son,
made too many bad choices.
Natalie wanted me to take care of him.
She left rne a letter, she begged me.
- Oh, I can't read Dutch, sorry.
Mr. de Boer, tell us about the money.
- Hovv do you know about this'?
- She left it for the child?
- She buried it.
Can you imagine?
She didn't trust rne enough to leave it with me.
- Uh, Natalie buried the money.
So she, she intended to come back for it.
- VVell, she just wanted it to be somewhere safe
while she was waiting for Matty to get better.
- But then she died.
- Yes, and when she did,
her lawyer send me that letter she had prepared
in case of the worst.
It told me where I could find the money.
Except I'd found it already.
My dog Casper, he dug it up.
- Did she give you any instructions
what to do with the money?
- She wrote she needed it for something important,
something too dangerous to trust anyone with it.
But she said that if she died,
she didn't want the money to go to waste.
It was to be spent on Matty.
- Mr. de Boer, this was not her money to give.
A lot of people's lives are at stake.
We need it back.
What, what is it'?
(Herman panting)
- It's gone.
(tense music)
Oh, sweet Jesus.
= (Game hew'?
- VVell, it was there when I came back with the boy,
and then after I got him settled,
next morning, the car window was smashed and uh.
- And?
Look, it's important that you tell us everything
that happened since you came into contact with this money.
- Yes I, I took it with me when I went to get the boy.
And then I drove back.
I stopped only once.
That was it.
My car had broken down, so I bought a new car at the garage
by the service station on De Vanderkreig.
- Did uh, anybody there see the money
or see you take it out'?
- It was late.
I was very careful.
(tea kettle whistling)
And then I took the boy home.
Bram, he was there the next morning.
He does some odd jobs around the village,
he sometimes cleans my windows.
I was taking care of the boy,
and the money was in the trunk of my car.
He could have seen it.
- Uh, do, do you have a surname, Bram'?
=- Vflgwr.
=' mm u
=- mm Vflgwr.
- VVhafs up'?
Has the boiler packed up again'?
- I need to talk with you.
- What, what is it'?
- It's the truth.
- What do you mean'?
- I recently met with a man called Constantin,
someone I worked with here in Amsterdam
a very long time before I met you.
- VVhatever you're trying to say, just say it.
- I always knew.
From a young age, I,
I felt this body was not mine.
For a long time, I ignored it,
and it made me angry.
I was so angry.
Ivlaybe that's why I did the things I did.
Then, then I realised that
I wanted to do something about it.
I wanted to change.
And I knew then that I had to leave my old life behind me.
I didn't want to do bad things any more.
- I don't understand.
- You need to know about this
because the people I worked with
are dangerous people, and, and now,
mm >
now they know who I am.
- What the fuck are you talking about'?
- I fell in love with you
after the operation.
And you fell in love with me and I,
I couldn't bring myself to tell you.
I didn't want to risk that look on your face right now.
“It
Deep down.
=- Y
- I'm sorry.
<( mm)
I'm still the same person that,
the woman you fell in love with.
- The woman'?
Thaw?
You just stay the fuck away from me, okay'?
You stay the fuck away.
(door slams)
mm >
(people chattering)
- I'm gonna need more officers.
- More'?
My detectives have other things to do
than catching Romanians?
This may be your war, but we're not your army.
- I'm coordinating five different countries at once.
When I leave this office, I spend my entire time
talking to chiefs of police in Belgium,
in France, in Romania, so if you need rne
to call your superiors and order you to help me, I can,
but I'd really rather not
spend more of my time on the phone.
- Hey, I didn't say no.
Do you make many friends with that attitude of yours'?
- I'm not here to make friends.
Edward Stratton's agreed to meet Constantin
and wear a listening device.
I just need more officers.
- I'll get you them.
- Martha.
When did you give up'?
- What do you mean'?
- When did you stop giving a shit'?
- I haven't given up.
= Right.
VVell, I hope your boss
was sitting far enough away from you in there
not to smell the barrel of vodka you've tucked away.
You should know better, brush your teeth at least.
(tense music)
(people chattering)
(dramatic music)
fimflfim MW,
(tense music)
- You have it'?
- No.
(dramatic music)
Please please
- You made me a promise, Mr. Stratton, hrnm'?
Have you forgotten'?
- I just--
- I own this place, you understand?
And if I ask them to clean your blood from the table,
it's done, and they're quick.
They've done it before.
- I will get it to you.
You think I want anyone else hurt
after what you did to my father?
- This is your jugular vein.
It would take 1 O minutes to die.
- Just wait,
(tense music)
please
You can trust me, Constantin.
I made you a promise and I'll keep it.
- Why is it that you think
you can waste my time, Mr. Stratton'?
- I'm not.
You're in charge here, I know that.
I just need you to know that you can trust me.
(dramatic music)
(people chattering)
So, how was that for you'?
- [Genevieve] What happened?
- You heard what happened.
- I heard what was said.
But I'm not a complete moron, despite what you might think.
- Your master plan wasn't working, okay'?
Someone like that was never just gonna magically open up
about the shit they've done just 'cause you want them to.
So, I wrote him a little note on a beer mat.
I told him you were listening to our conversation.
- Jesus Christ.
- I told him I could help him.
If he thinks I can update him on your investigation
or feed you false information, then I'm useful to him.
So, he said to call me when you weren't listening.
So, I meet him again, somewhere he feels safe,
maybe he open up, maybe you get what you want.
- So, you're trying to get a sociopathic gangster
to trust you, brilliant.
- I've given you what you want.
Now, let me meet up with Baptiste.
- Baptiste doesn't need your help, I do.
(Genevieve sighs)
And in the meantime, I need more officers.
I need a team with directional mics on standby,
so you don't have to wear a wire.
We have to be ready with surveillance
on whatever looation Constantin chooses.
- And in the meantime, what am I supposed to be doing'?
- We'll get you a, a new hotel room,
somewhere safe where you can get yourself together.
- Ah, you want to keep an eye on me.
- You look like you could use a rest, Edward.
- Yeah, rest, right, that'll fix everything.
Maybe a time cup of tea.
and then this whole nightmare will really be over, won't it'?
- What's this'?
- The Band, lvlusic from Big Pink.
You know, the band members they rented this big pink house
just after touring with Bob Dylan.
- No, no, I mean this strange shiny piece of plastic.
(Niels chuckles)
- I know where I am with a compact disc.
- Yeah, in the '90s.
- Careful or I'll tell your mother.
(Niels laughing)
We need to stop for petrol
if we're going to get to Mr. Vissefis house.
(tense music)
- I might use the bathroom.
(Julien sighs)
So, I'm coming back.
I'll make my excuses, I'll be back soon.
Just uh,
mam, a
Okay, yup, bYe-
- [Julien] It's your mother?
- No, no, no, no, uh, the office.
They, they want me back.
No day off for me, it seems so.
I just get here and they--
- It has to be now'?
- Yeah, yeah.
That's what they say.
I'm urn, I'm really sorry, Julien.
I can get a local police car to drive me,
YOU can GETTY OH.

Ivlay I come in'?
- Uh, it's a mess in here, so.
- Urn, did you see a black canvas bags in Mr. de Boefis car
when you were there?
- No.
- No'?
It was in the trunk of his car.
You didn't happen to notice it'?
- I said, no.
- Mr. Visser, what was inside this bag
was not the windfall you may think it to be.
It's the property of a very dangerous group of people,
and believe rne when I say
it's not in your interest to lie to me.
- I'm busy, I can't.
(phone ringing)
- Julien'?
- I found Herman de Boer.
He had the money, but it was taken from him.
- [Edward] Oh Jesus, it's never-ending.
- The man who I think has the money
has a hidden door inside his house with two padlooks on.
These are not the usual actions
of someone with nothing to hide.
- I could make it up there.
Can we get into his house'?
- Oh but Edward, I cannot be sure of this.
- VVell, just tell me where you are.
(gentle music) (people chattering)
- [Officer] Mr. Stratton, I'm sorry,
but it isn't safe
- It's all right. - for you to leave this hotel.
- [Edward] It's all right, I just
need to see someone. - You need to get inside.
- Get off me!
Liaison Officer Genevieve Taylor
asked you to do this, right'?
- It's for your own safety, sir.
- Is it'? Bollocks.
It's for her benefit, not mine.
- We need to ask you to return to your room, sir.
- All right. - Now.
- All right.
(phone ringing)
- Greg'?
- [VVoman] Is this Kim Vogel'?
- Sorry, yes, it is.
- [VVoman] I've heard you help girls
who want to set up on their own.
A friend of mine was telling me about you.
- I do.
Are you based in Amsterdam?

((5% QJPQQJQJTFWQJ)
(people chattering)
(loud knocking)
- Has he called?
- No, I was supposed to get in touch with him.
- And have you'?
- No because I'm capable of following basic instructions.
I'm only supposed to call him when he told me to.
- I'm sorry, it's just, when we do this,
we want to get it right, that's all.
- How hang are you gonna keep me here'?
I met your friends downstairs.
They vvere kind enough to redirect rne back in here.
- Like I said, we want to get it right, and that takes time.
You make it sound
like we've put you in prison, Mr. Stratton.
Not many prisons have a five-star spa.
- Never have been one for spas.
- You're missing out.
- I've done everything you asked rne to, haven't I'?
I just need to be where Baptiste is
because I have less than a day.
- You're here for your own safety.
- Oh, don't give me that shit.
- It's true.
You're the one that told Constantin
you're working with Europol.
Do you really think
you oan just walk around with impunity anymore?
Ivlaybe he'll take you up on your offer.
Ivlaybe he'll agree to meet you and use you
and try to get information.
Or maybe he'll do what he usually does
when he's confronted with a problem
and just kill you where you stand.
- What are you doing here'?
What is it about this case that makes you like this'?
- You know what these people do.
- It's more than that though, isn't it'?
(tense music)
None of this is real.
None of this is actually happening, is it'?
- We are here to protect you.
- Hmrn, and what about Clare?
- I'm speaking with Scotland Yard.
Your ex-vvife will be safe.
- Speaking with them, what's that meant to mean'?
- I spend half my time wading through bureaucratic crap
trying to get things done.
Getting a 24-hour protective detail is expensive
and it takes time to sign-off.
But I will, I'm very persistent.
- I've noticed.
Do you want to have a drink from your expensive mini bar'?
(Genevieve chuckles)
- It's gonna be okay, Edward.
We're gonna make sure these fuckers
can't hurt anyone ever again.
- And just like that, all their problems were solved.
- The team won't be ready till tomorrow.
We'll ask you to make contact at six.
I'll be back before then.
- What am I gonna do until then'?
- Like I said, there is a spa.
I'm guessing you haven't take a breath
since you took the money from that van.
Honestly, it would do you good to unwind.
- Right, might I'll get my nails done.
- I will see you in the morning.
- See you.

Promise me you will be careful.
- [Celia] I will.

- Get out!
Get out!
- You have nothing to fear from me.
- You're in my house.
What do you want'?
VVho, who are you'?
- L, I told you, I'm Julien Baptiste.
I'm a detective.
I work with the police in Amsterdam.
I'm, I'm not here for this.
I'm here because Herman de Boer
had a large amount of money stolen from him.
That bag I told you about earlier,
there was a million euros in cash inside.
- L, I took nothing!
- Perhaps it's true, you took nothing.
But perhaps you saw something.
- How dare you'?
Breaking into my house.
I should call the police.
- Yes, call them, please.
You can explain to them how you spend your time
watching the private lives of half this town.
That's what this is, isn't it'?
You use your job to watch people, don't you'?
They let you into their homes,
you work away in the background.
They forget you're even a person.
And when their back are turned,
you plant eyes in their ceilings, ears in their walls.
- You're the one, you broke into my house, I--
- Believe me, Mr. Visser,
the police will not care when they see this.
It will not end well for you.
(mm )
- I, I don't know anything about this.
I don't, I don't know what you are talking about I swear.
I mean, the cameras, sure,
but I don't know anything about any money.
I swear.
- Mr. Visser, these uh,
these screens, these cameras,
they are all over the village, are they'?
- It's, it's curiosity, you understand?
L, I, I'm not some kind of a pervert.
- Okay-
Do you have any near the garage,
the service station down the road.
- L, I don't know, I.
- Mr. Visser, do not make this any worse for you
than it already is.
- Okay, I'll look.
Ivlake yourself a coffee or something.
(gentle music)
Mm, n
- Yes.
This is uh, the garage by the service station?
- Mm-hmm.
The, garage uh, restrooms.
I'm not a pervert.
- Okay-
But do you have any other cameras at this garage?
This is the only place Mr. de Boer stopped.
If anyone else found out about that money,
it would have happened here.
- Only the restrooms.
- Play it.
- Okay-
This is around nine.
As you can see, there is no one until.
(speaking in foreign language)
(man laughing)
- What is he saying?
- He's saying urn, they should book a holiday, quit work.
It's his brother he is talking to, I think.
He says he has never seen so much money in his life.
- We have our man.
- VVho Jasper?
- Do you know him'?
- I know everyone in the village.
That's Jasper Staverman, our dentist.
He gave me a root canal last year.
Horrible business.
- I am grateful for your help.
And in return, Mr. Visser,
I will give you the chance to destroy all of this.
- You, you won't call the police?
- Try to make a life of your own,
so you need not find refuge in the lives of others.
I still have connections I think.
These people will come and check on you.
And uh, if anything of this remains,
you will be sent to prison
where you can watch only what goes on

- I will, I will, thank you, I will.

(people chattering)
- Julien.
- Hi, I'm sorry to disturb.
I need to find someone.
Licence plate, credit cards.
- You've found what you've been looking for'?
- Almost.
I believe this man, Jasper Staverman, has it.
He's a dentist in the village of Gijsen.
- You ever get tired of being so right all the time, Julien'?
- You are angry with me'?
- You had no right, no right to lecture me.
(Julien sighs)
(Julien chuckles)
- I was not.
- We keep things from the people vve love all the time,
don't we, to protect them'?
- He's your son, he loves you.
And he will love you, whatever you decide to tell him.
- Okay, I'll get one of my detectives
to call you about Jasper Staverman.

- Hey, I'm busy.
- Ironic, this is the word.
Your car is fitted with a (BPS tracker
to protect you from theft,
and yet it leads me right to you, a thief.
- What do you want'?
- Mr. Staverman, you need to stop spending that money.
(speaking in foreign language)
- So, who the hell are you'?
- You saw Herman de Boer moving that money
outside the garage.
And when he got home, when he was inside his house,
fit.
(Jasper laughs)
- This is ridiculous.
- You think your friend de Boer carries a million in cash
in the back of his car'?
You think that money belongs to him'?
- Hey, answer my question, who the hell are you'?
- The real owners are very dangerous people, Mr. Staverman.
(tense music)
Their name is the Brigada Serbilu.
They have no cornpunction for who they hurt
and who they kill.
People are commodities.
Human life means nothing to them,
ones they buy and sell and dispose of
without any second thought.
So uh, your choice right now is simple.
You can hand me the money and go back to your quiet life
attending the teeth of Gijsen
or I leave and I tell the Brigada Serbilu your name.
I tell them you have their money.
