Mmm. Chief.
180
00:15:07,281 --> 00:15:10,521
MAIGRET: And I want witnesses from
the bars from which the dead man called.
181
00:15:10,521 --> 00:15:12,601
Think people are going
to recognise him from this?
182
00:15:12,601 --> 00:15:13,961
They might.
183
00:15:13,961 --> 00:15:16,241
Those bars were the Caves Du Beaujolais,
184
00:15:16,241 --> 00:15:19,201
the Canon de la Bastille
and the Jours Heuraux.
185
00:15:19,201 --> 00:15:20,681
And we believe
he tried to call the switchboard
186
00:15:20,681 --> 00:15:22,801
from the post office
in the Rue de Faubourg.
187
00:15:22,801 --> 00:15:24,401
People are creatures of habit,
188

so the same time of day
is when we'll get witnesses.
189
00:15:27,401 --> 00:15:30,681
His last suspected location
was the post office,
190
00:15:30,681 --> 00:15:32,361
three hours before he died.
191
00:15:33,161 --> 00:15:35,521
I want to know where he went after that,
192
00:15:35,521 --> 00:15:38,881
why the phone calls stopped
and where he ate.
193
00:15:39,401 --> 00:15:41,881
Well, he was killed
shortly after his last meal,
194
00:15:41,881 --> 00:15:45,561
which was creamed cod,
an apple and white wine to drink.
195
00:15:46,041 --> 00:15:49,961
So we should check the menus of all
the cafés and bistros, all of them.

He's not known to us.

Your registration number is 1808 AD38?
200
00:16:08,641 --> 00:16:12,281
Have we had any cream and blue Citroén's
reported missing in the last few days?
201
00:16:13,561 --> 00:16:15,081
CLERK: He asked for an envelope
and a stamp
202
00:16:15,081 --> 00:16:17,161
and I saw him post it before he left.
203
00:16:17,161 --> 00:16:18,561
Has the box been emptied since?
204
00:16:18,561 --> 00:16:22,361
CLERK: It's emptied every three hours.
He posted it after he made a phone call.

What have you got?
206
00:16:41,481 --> 00:16:43,801
I have a cream and blue Citroen
stolen eight days ago,
207
00:16:43,801 --> 00:16:47,161
but its registration doesn't tally.
So, it's not our car.
208

What do you do
when you get home, Janvier?
209
00:16:52,921 --> 00:16:55,441
- I give my wife a kiss.
- Hmm.
210

I get changed out of my suit jacket.

You think he went home
after calling you?
212
00:17:02,961 --> 00:17:06,561
That would explain why the jacket
and the trousers don't match.

- No.

He was killed indoors, without the coat,
and they faked it to look outdoors.

is speaking to me at last, Maigret.

In the arch of his shoe,
there's an odd sort of mud.

It's earth saturated with alcohol,
probably wine.

MADAME MAIGRET: And what are you
thinking about your dead man?
344
00:25:42,601 --> 00:25:46,801
I'm thinking about why he drank
a low-alcohol drink like Suze-Citron.
345
00:25:47,641 --> 00:25:48,601
And Why did he?
346
00:25:49,241 --> 00:25:52,521
People who drink it
tend not to go into a bar to drink
347
00:25:53,481 --> 00:25:56,481
but go in a professional capacity,
like a salesman,
348
00:25:56,481 --> 00:25:58,961
who spends his day being stood rounds.
349
00:25:58,961 --> 00:26:01,841
So you think he was
a commercial traveller of some kind?
350
00:26:01,841 --> 00:26:03,441
No, because of his shirt.
351
00:26:04,481 --> 00:26:06,721
- What was wrong with his shirt?
- It was white.
352
00:26:07,041 --> 00:26:09,001
It wasn't striped or coloured.
353
00:26:10,041 --> 00:26:12,961
And the cuffs were not
as worn as the rest of the shirt.
354
00:26:14,161 --> 00:26:15,641
What does that tell us?
355
00:26:16,201 --> 00:26:19,921
Perhaps he was someone who spent his
days with his shirt sleeves rolled up.
356
00:26:20,241 --> 00:26:22,961
Like a barman or a cafe owner.
357
00:26:23,681 --> 00:26:26,361
Maybe he had one of those
little bistros run by a married couple,
358
00:26:26,361 --> 00:26:28,641
where they only serve
one dish of the day.
359
00:26:28,641 --> 00:26:29,801
Yes.
360
00:26:29,801 --> 00:26:31,681
- Are you warm enough? Another blanket?
- No, thank you.
361
00:26:31,681 --> 00:26:33,841
I'll put some more coal on the stove.
362
00:26:33,841 --> 00:26:36,361
And I think I know
when he changed his plan.
363
00:26:36,361 --> 00:26:37,401
What plan?
364
00:26:38,161 --> 00:26:41,961
They pursued him from the racecourse
and that's when he tried to phone me.
365
00:26:42,921 --> 00:26:48,481
But after three attempts, he rang
somebody else from the post office.
366
00:26:49,561 --> 00:26:52,321
And then he went home, ate his supper
367
00:26:52,841 --> 00:26:55,321
and waited for
the second plan to unfold.
368
00:26:55,321 --> 00:26:56,561
What was it?
369
00:26:58,121 --> 00:26:59,241
I don't know.
370
00:27:02,121 --> 00:27:04,841
- If he went home and had supper...
- Yes?
371
00:27:05,561 --> 00:27:08,401
...then maybe he was expecting someone
who was going to help him.
372
00:27:08,401 --> 00:27:12,121
But that person didn't make it
until after his killers turned up.
373
00:27:12,841 --> 00:27:14,521
Because their car broke down.
374
00:27:15,241 --> 00:27:17,321
That's why the friend didn't make it.
375
00:27:20,241 --> 00:27:23,521
If his friend was in the car,
where would he dump his body?
376
00:27:26,281 --> 00:27:28,361

That on the night of the 8th of October,
734
00:56:23,801 --> 00:56:25,961
a man travelled from Paris

735
00:56:25,961 --> 00:56:28,001

736

A journey nobody makes.
737
00:56:32,961 --> 00:56:36,201
You think the café owner
was on that train?
738
00:56:36,201 --> 00:56:37,721
He had no reason to be.
739

But why weren't all four of them
on the train?
740
00:56:39,761 --> 00:56:42,841
Because they had a van.
I don't think the man in the fur coat

would want to travel with this lot,

01:06:15,601 --> 01:06:19,321
And those people from the rural east,
they are uneducated.
869
01:06:20,081 --> 01:06:23,441
Some are no better than peasants
from the Middle Ages.

No better than animals.
871
01:06:28,121 --> 01:06:30,761
I feel I need to point that out to you.
872
01:06:37,681 --> 01:06:39,321
If she's fit to move, Maigret,
873
01:06:39,321 --> 01:06:41,601
I want her transferred
this evening to La Santé.

Excuse me.
875
01:06:46,681 --> 01:06:49,241
- Whose are those flowers?
- Nobody's now.
876
01:06:49,241 --> 01:06:52,361
The lady in this room
went home a few minutes ago.
877
01:06:54,081 --> 01:06:56,721
Would you mind taking them to room 270?
878
01:06:58,241 --> 01:06:59,521
Of course.
879
01:07:00,641 --> 01:07:01,921
Thank you.
880
01:07:05,561 --> 01:07:06,641
Why?
881
01:07:08,841 --> 01:07:10,761
Because the room is cold.
882
01:07:11,521 --> 01:07:14,681
And because there's a woman
with a child in there.

01:08:57,601 --> 01:09:00,201
He saw your notice in the newspaper.

This is not a trap.

- Please, sit down.
- No.
904
01:09:47,521 --> 01:09:50,521
I knew Albert. I ate at his place.
905
01:09:50,521 --> 01:09:51,881
I knew him.
906
01:09:52,841 --> 01:09:55,321
- And on the day he died?
- He rang up.
907
01:09:56,601 --> 01:09:58,841
Said he'd been racing,
908
01:09:58,841 --> 01:10:02,001
said he'd realised
who the Picardie gang were.
909
01:10:02,001 --> 01:10:04,841
Said if we helped him, we might get
some money out of them.
910
01:10:05,001 --> 01:10:07,161
- Who's "we"?
- I'm not telling you that.
911
01:10:08,241 --> 01:10:09,761
But my mate does cars.
912
01:10:10,401 --> 01:10:12,121
Paint jobs. Ringers.
913
01:10:12,641 --> 01:10:13,721
Anyway,
914
01:10:13,921 --> 01:10:16,881
the car we used to get to Albert's place
broke down, didn't it?
915
01:10:16,881 --> 01:10:18,361
Pile of crap.
916
01:10:19,361 --> 01:10:21,721
And when we got there, he was dead.
917
01:10:24,201 --> 01:10:26,121
Thing is...
918
01:10:28,041 --> 01:10:30,081
The thing is I'm on parole.
919
01:10:31,081 --> 01:10:33,401
I've been inside eight
out of the last 1O years, Maigret.
920
01:10:34,321 --> 01:10:35,841
I ain't going back.
921
01:10:36,481 --> 01:10:38,881
And you'd been seen in a place
where a man was murdered.
922
01:10:39,121 --> 01:10:42,001
That neighbour woman saw me, yeah.
923
01:10:42,001 --> 01:10:44,521
I ain't going back inside. I can't.
924
01:10:44,521 --> 01:10:46,201
I understand.
925
01:10:48,001 --> 01:10:52,281
And police don't take much interest if
a gangster's found dead in the street.
926
01:10:52,281 --> 01:10:54,761
You don't sniff around that for long.
927
01:10:55,321 --> 01:10:57,761
So we dumped him
like it was an underworld hit,
928
01:10:58,801 --> 01:11:00,681
his face smashed in,
929
01:11:00,681 --> 01:11:03,561
like they do
so no one can trace the body.
930
01:11:04,201 --> 01:11:05,921
Then we got rid of the car.
931
01:11:06,921 --> 01:11:07,881
Mmm.

- She's safe.

I think it's from him.

a betting ticket but it's for a train.

take them all to the racetrack?

- Get your coat.
- Why? I'm not leaving!
963

Because there's a race meeting today
and he knows we're closing in.

for casual work at Citroén.

01:19:51,761 --> 01:19:53,601
He is like many men,
1040
01:19:53,601 --> 01:19:56,441
some who commit crimes
and some who don't.
1041
01:19:57,361 --> 01:20:00,401
He lived a life where other people
were not people.
1042
01:20:01,761 --> 01:20:03,561
They were just things.
1043
01:20:04,841 --> 01:20:06,601
(KNOCK AT DOOR)
1044
01:20:10,441 --> 01:20:14,041
And this is the file
that contains details
1045
01:20:14,721 --> 01:20:17,721
of what your boyfriend
and his accomplices did
1046
01:20:19,561 --> 01:20:22,321
in order to steal the things
that you're wearing.
1047
01:20:31,201 --> 01:20:34,121
You'll be seeing more of me
over the next few weeks, Maigret.
1048
01:20:34,121 --> 01:20:35,361
Indeed.
1049
01:20:35,601 --> 01:20:37,521
The Station Masters
from Goderville and Moucher
1050
01:20:37,521 --> 01:20:39,561
are on their way to identify Tonnelier.
1051
01:20:39,561 --> 01:20:41,641
Then we'll be transferring him.
1052
01:20:42,281 --> 01:20:43,601
Did she know anything?
1053
01:20:45,361 --> 01:20:47,521
- No.
- Right.
1054
01:21:28,881 --> 01:21:33,441
Were you there when they killed the man
who recognised you at the racetrack?
1055
01:21:35,361 --> 01:21:38,641
It puzzled me how he'd got hold
of your train ticket.
1056
01:21:41,481 --> 01:21:44,241
But I think it was because
he was a compulsive gambler
1057
01:21:45,201 --> 01:21:47,801
who'd check the floor for winning slips
1058
01:21:48,961 --> 01:21:51,441
that had been discarded by accident.
1059
01:21:53,121 --> 01:21:57,121
The papers that morning
were full of stories of a suspect
1060
01:21:57,121 --> 01:22:00,561
who had taken an unusual
train journey to Goderville.
1061
01:22:02,921 --> 01:22:06,481
And when your victim
checked what you had dropped,
1062
01:22:08,761 --> 01:22:12,841
he recognised the train ticket
and realised who you were.
1063
01:22:15,001 --> 01:22:16,521
Is that right?
1064
01:22:18,801 --> 01:22:20,201
He was a nothing.
1065
01:22:22,281 --> 01:22:23,921
A little man.
1066
01:22:23,921 --> 01:22:26,641
Placing little bets
for little winnings.
1067
01:22:28,001 --> 01:22:31,001
I saw him pick up the ticket
and look at me.
1068
01:22:31,001 --> 01:22:34,321
And so I set the animal on him.
1069
01:22:37,761 --> 01:22:41,601
I want you to know
that his name was Albert Rochain
1070
01:22:43,041 --> 01:22:44,921
and that he had a wife
1071
01:22:45,601 --> 01:22:48,161
and that they were trying
to start a family.
1072
01:22:49,241 --> 01:22:52,321
And for all his
little bets and little winnings,
1073
01:22:54,241 --> 01:22:56,801
his life was more successful than yours
1074
01:22:58,001 --> 01:23:01,761
because he didn't end up
like an animal in a cage,
1075
01:23:03,201 --> 01:23:05,041
despised by everyone,
1076
01:23:06,521 --> 01:23:08,481
with nothing to look forward to
1077
01:23:09,841 --> 01:23:11,681
except his execution.
1078
01:23:51,601 --> 01:23:53,881
I'm sorry. I just had to finish up.
1079
01:23:55,441 --> 01:23:57,321
My wife, Louise.
1080
01:23:57,321 --> 01:23:59,081
- Hello.
- Please.
1081
01:24:07,961 --> 01:24:10,121
When is your husband's funeral?
1082
01:24:10,121 --> 01:24:11,361
Tomorrow.
1083
01:24:12,161 --> 01:24:15,401
We'd very much like to come
and pay our respects.
1084
01:24:15,401 --> 01:24:17,081
He'd like that. Thank you.
1085
01:24:22,321 --> 01:24:24,041
I'm sorry about what happened to Albert.
1086
01:24:24,281 --> 01:24:25,961
He was a good man.
1087
01:24:27,641 --> 01:24:29,601
And happy, you know?
1088
01:24:32,481 --> 01:24:35,121
He was always singing, Chief Inspector.
1089
01:24:38,281 --> 01:24:41,281
He always wanted everyone to be happy.
1090
01:24:41,281 --> 01:24:45,921
That's why he was good at running
this place and working in bars.
1091
01:24:50,321 --> 01:24:52,401
And he was good to me.
1092
01:24:53,401 --> 01:24:54,921
I'm sure he was.
1093
01:24:56,721 --> 01:24:59,081
I knew I was lucky when I found him.
1094
01:25:00,001 --> 01:25:02,601
- Will you keep the bistro on?
- Absolutely.
1095
01:25:03,481 --> 01:25:04,561
For him.
1096
01:25:07,561 --> 01:25:09,481
We talked of
filling the house with children.
1097
01:25:09,481 --> 01:25:10,761
I know.
1098
01:25:11,521 --> 01:25:14,241
But we weren't so lucky there.
1099
01:25:15,361 --> 01:25:17,481
Supposing you were able
to adopt a child?
1100
01:25:20,441 --> 01:25:24,561
Well, do you think that I might?
That they'd allow me?
1101
01:25:25,401 --> 01:25:27,281
Would that be possible?
1102
01:25:28,521 --> 01:25:31,561
I know of one who is facing
a life in an orphanage.
1103
01:25:31,561 --> 01:25:33,561
- A baby?
- Yes.
1104
01:25:35,001 --> 01:25:38,201
One that very soon will lose its mother.
1105
01:25:40,281 --> 01:25:41,681
(BREATHES SHAKILY)
1106
01:25:43,561 --> 01:25:46,281
Maybe some good can come of this, Nina.
1107
01:25:51,721 --> 01:25:53,361
It's not its fault
1108
01:25:54,801 --> 01:25:57,761
-who its parents are, is it?
- No, it isn't.
1109
01:26:02,601 --> 01:26:05,361
Do you think it would be possible?
1110
01:26:05,361 --> 01:26:07,841
Let's see. I can ask.
1111
01:26:11,121 --> 01:26:13,321
My husband would like it
1112
01:26:14,041 --> 01:26:16,361
if I was here with a child.
1113
01:26:19,241 --> 01:26:20,641
Mmm.
1114
01:26:27,281 --> 01:26:28,521
Goodbye.
1115
01:26:29,761 --> 01:26:30,921
Goodbye, Nina.
1116
01:26:37,481 --> 01:26:38,961
Goodbye and good luck.
1117
01:26:41,321 --> 01:26:44,001
When Albert rang me,
he said that you and I had met.
1118
01:26:44,481 --> 01:26:46,721
- Yes.
- When?
1119
01:26:47,841 --> 01:26:50,801
Ten years ago.
I was working at a hotel in Dieppe.
1120
01:26:51,281 --> 01:26:53,361
You were on holiday there.
1121
01:26:54,321 --> 01:26:58,121
All the guests were watching you,
secretly talking about you.
1122
01:27:00,641 --> 01:27:03,801
I took up some service
for you both one afternoon.
1123
01:27:04,201 --> 01:27:05,321
Ah...
1124
01:27:05,321 --> 01:27:07,801
Albert was very taken that I'd met you.
1125
01:27:13,521 --> 01:27:16,161
Would you ask about the baby for me?
1126
01:27:17,441 --> 01:27:20,081
- Yes, of course.
- Thank you.
1127
01:27:40,281 --> 01:27:42,281
