[cousin] I'm sorry, cousin.
Who the fuck was it?
Apparently, the guys from Los Soles cartel.
That's what the guys I talked to told me.
Why would they do this?
Do you remember what their negotiator said to you?
His bosses might have taken your request as an insult.
Around here, that's not enough to warrant this kind of a response,
but maybe where they come from.
- Any other news? - Yes.
What, damn it?
Those guys at your house,
apparently, they work for someone high-up in the cartel.
A bigwig. And he came here to clean up his whole business.
This guy got a name?
A description?
[cousin] That's all we know,
but his hit men are the deadliest in South America.
And he's raising a whole Flemish army here.
Saber, you have to go to Morocco.
Or anywhere, but you must leave.
I'm not going until I avenge Sofia.
- Saber. - And Coralie?
- You can't take on the cartel. - Did you talk to my wife?
Your ex-wife.
Yes, I spoke to her about Sofia.
She's at home waiting.
I want you to find that guy from the cartel.
Tell him I wanna meet up to negotiate.
That I'll give him Customs and all my contacts
if he'll agree to leave me alone.
And what's your goal for this move?
Set up a meeting so you can kill him?
Yeah, it's exactly that.
[man shouts in distance]
- You good? - I'm good.
- Let's see. - I said I'm fine.
[Mehdi panting]
I'm so tired.
I know. I know.
[Liana] I'm tired. I'm tired.
We got to get out of here, okay? Come on, get changed. Get changed.
[Liana sighs]
I swear on my mother, we don't leave until he pays for this.
I knew he'd be after us after the diamond heist.
- Who do you mean? - Chris!
Chris is dead. I killed him.
If-- if it's not him, is it the Djeblis?
No idea. But we can't stay here.
[exhales]
[panting]
Hey, hurry up.
Let's go. [sighs]
The bill, please.
Look at this.
[exhales] See that? Look.
[bell chimes]
- Okay. - [laughs]
- [cell phone ringing] - That's it.
- Can you pay, darling? - Mm-hmm.
What?
The same guys who killed the lawyer were at the port.
-They blew up the boat. - What?
- Where are you? - The trailer. We're leaving now.
- What about you? -All good. I moved the tickets up.
We're leaving now. How did they track you to the port?
[sighs] No idea.
The sooner you get to Italy, the sooner you'll be safe.
I'll call you when I find a buyer.
- Okay, okay. - Be careful.
You too. Be careful.
[officer] Police! Police! Show me your hands!
Get down! On your knees. On your knees!
Hands on your head!
Tony Graziani, you're now under arrest on the charge of murder.
- [wife] Let me go, okay? Let go of me! - [officer] Move it.
- Calm down, ma'am. - [wife] Don't touch my kids. Let go of me!
- [officer] I said don't move. Stop moving! - [wife] Let go of me! Agh!
What do we do about Nahel?
What do you mean?
If the Djeblis found us, it means they can find him too.
All the scams, we did them together. We're linked.
I'm not leaving without him. Let's go get him.
[sighs]
[door opens]
[baby babbling]
[Saber] I know what I'm asking isn't easy.
But you're the only one I can trust.
It's just for a few days. That's all.
[Coralie] We won't be in danger?
[Saber] You're safe here. No one knows this address.
[Coralie] What will you do in the meantime?
I don't wanna lie to you, Coralie.
[scoffs] Oh, yeah?
For years, you didn't have a problem with it.
I'll take her.
I'll take care of her.
I'm truly sorry for what I did to you.
[kisses]
Forgive me.
[in Spanish] Close the door. That's a lot of money.
[lock clicks]
[Almeida] I'm in charge of sorting out the port,
and you'll take care of these thugs. This one is done.
These two guys live in a squat with Mehdi Belhadj's partner.
Forget about him. He's left the country.
But this guy, Nahel, still lives in Brussels.
Valeria found his address.
Bring him to me.
But be careful.
If he's in touch with Belhadj and the girl,
they might be hiding out at his place.
Don't worry. We'll get them this time.
Keep underestimating the thieves,
and they'll be the ones who get you.
Find me this kid.
[in English] Yeah.

I guess you've changed.
You've been avoiding me since my brother talked to you.
You mean, like I'm scared of him?
[lighter clicks]
That's what you're saying?
[cell phone vibrates]
Who's that? Hmm.
- He's not answering. - [Nahel's voice] It's Nahel. Over to you.
Nahel, call me back. I'm coming to your place.
He wants me to stay away from you. I get it.
Weren't you giving this to the lawyer?
Those guys on the docks, they... they killed her.
Look, I'm sorry. I should have told you sooner.
[Liana] Yeah, you should have told me sooner.
[Nahel's voice] Hey, it's Nahel. Over to you.
If I kissed you and he showed up, what would you do?
He'd have to stay out of my way. It's not my fault his sister likes me.
[chuckles] You think I like you?
Yeah.
[hip-hop music playing]
[chattering]
- I gotta go. I'm late. - I'll walk you.

- Yo, bro! You looking for something? - [man] Hey!
What's going on? Huh?
[man 3] Huh? What are you doing, bro?
- Hey, you hear that? What do you want? - You deaf?
[in Spanish] Hey, easy.
- [man in English] What "tranquilo"? - Don't talk to us like that.
What the fuck's wrong with you?
[in Spanish] Chill out.
[man 3 in English] What the fuck are you talking about?
[in Spanish] How about this?
[in English] Put that away!
[in Spanish] Now what you gonna do?
- [man in English] Hey, put that away! - [shouting]

Let's go. Open the door!

Come on, quick!
[tires screech]
[gasps] You all right?
[Nahel grunting] Yeah.
[panting]
Stop.
[exhales] The hell are you doing?
[Liana] Hurry up, drive!
[tires screech]
[Almeida] So, I understand Saber sent you to negotiate with me.
Yes, that's right.
You must be very close for him to trust you with something like that.
[cousin] My father is his mother's cousin.
Ah, I see.
Blood ties are very important.
So he's proposing to "offer me" his crooked Customs men
if I accept to let him live?
That's all he wants. Nothing more.
Okay. [inhales]
All right, well, I'll tell you what I think.
If he really wanted to negotiate,
he would have sent his lawyer, but he sent you.
The only reason that Saber would like to meet with me is to kill me.
- No. - Shh!
Let me finish, please.
Saber wants to avenge his cousin.
And that's something that I can respect.
But what I respect even more
is you taking the risk to come to me, to help him.
That shows me you have two qualities that are very rare around here.
Courage and ambition.
So now, tell me, which is it that you want?
To die for Saber or to work for me?
[cell phone vibrates]
Yeah.
He agreed to meet you.
But it'll be complicated.
He's got his henchmen with him all the time.
That's good. We'll kill them too.
Then I have an idea. Can we meet tonight?
Come to my hotel.
No one will work for you, Saber.
They're afraid of the Los Soles cartel.
I can't even find guys for security.
Relax, they'll show.
They're not coming back, Saber.
And you know what?
The guys kissing your ring yesterday,
they'll all turn on you if the cartel tells them to.
So take your family and go to Morocco. It's the best thing you can do.
Take care of yourself.
August 12, '75, in Lecce, Italy.

I said I was born in Italy.
[officer] Height?
Six feet, two inches. [sighs]
Come in.
- Papa! - My sweet.
- Papa! - Come back here, sweetie.
It's okay. Don't worry. Take care of her, honey, okay?
It's gonna be okay. Let go of me!
[officer] Sit back down.
Fucking cop tricks, huh?
- [loud bang] - [officer] Sit down.
You think this is all new to me? Hmm?
Do I look like an idiot to you?
- Don't worry. We'll take care of them. - You better. You better.
Know him?
[laughs]
No way. Let me explain.
I like to smoke some hash. I admit it.
And this guy's my dealer. That's why I hang out with him.
In that coke lab you raided, we found your blood and his.
You're in just as deep.
But if you help us find him,
I will personally erase everything we have on your wife.
On my wife?
Well, you can shove everything you have on my wife up your ass,
'cause you have nothing on my wife.
For the wire on you and her, that's true.
But she talked quite a bit with your brother's wife.
We know Chris de Witt killed your brother,
because your wife told your sister-in-law on the phone.
We have no evidence yet, but we know that you stole the diamonds
and killed him for it.
So we worked it out with the prosecutor on the case.
If you sign that document and you help me find Belhadj,
we'll drop the accomplice charge against your wife.
But if you refuse, she goes away for ten years.
Tony, don't let your wife go to jail because of you.
- [knock on door] - [Liana] Kelly!
[knocks]
What do you want?
[Liana] Open up, please. I need your help.
I don't wanna see you.
[Liana] Kelly, stop. Please, it's urgent.
- [grunts] Come on! - [Kelly] What the hell is this?
- [Nahel grunting] - [Mehdi] Come here.
[grunting]
Sit here. Easy, easy.
- [Nahel grunting] - [Mehdi exhales]
- [panting] - Just breathe.
Fucking breathe.
[Nahel groans]
[Liana] Breathe.
[Nahel grunts]
[Liana] Breathe.
[Nahel exhales]
Take care of him. I'll take care of the Djeblis.
You want some water?
No, I'm fine.
- [Liana] Sure? - I'm fine.
- Wanna take off your shoes? - I'm fine. I'm fine. [panting]
[packaging crinkling]
You need help, Kelly?
Can you leave me alone? I need to concentrate.
[packaging rips]
[grunting]
Here.
[Nahel grunting]
[panting]
[sighs] Holy shit.
Don't move. Be right back.
I'm going to the pharmacy to get what we need.
[panting]
[muffled hip-hop music playing]
- [cousin] You good, bro? - Yeah, you?
Be right there.
[hip-hop music continues playing]
You alone?
Yeah.
Let's eat downstairs. Then I'll bounce.
Hang on. I'll grab the keys.
[gun cocks]
Sorry, cousin.
[door opens, closes]
[cell phone vibrating]
[sighs]
It's done. I took care of him.
[Almeida] Hold on to this phone.
Our people working in Antwerp are going to call you.
And hold on to that ambition. We need people with that quality.
[taps phone]
[sighs]
[panting]
[continues panting]
[Kelly] I stitched up his wound. He just fell asleep.
Does he need a doctor or...
Well, if it stays clean, I can tend to him.
But if it gets infected, he'll need someone.
Okay.
Can I ask you what happened to him?
It's better you don't know.
Why didn't you stay with me last night?
Kelly, I'm on the run. Don't you get that?
And if you weren't, would you have stayed with me?
[sighs]
You know what? You take the couch.
I'm gonna rest at the pharmacy.
Hey, I'm gonna do everything I can for your friend, okay?
'Cause unlike you, I care about people.
But after that, I'm done with you.

Madame Commissioner.
Mr. Prosecutor.
So, you wanted to see me?
Since I arrived, I've been stuck in my country's embassy.
You should get out.
I don't think that your superiors asked me to come here for tourism.
Oh, but no one asked you to come here. You volunteered to come.
That's true.
I know enough about South American traffickers.
You can save your energy and your theoretical knowledge.
And what makes you think that my knowledge is all theoretical?
That I don't know things that could help you on a practical level?
Go ahead, I'm listening.
I heard that you're looking for a thief.
Mehdi Belhadj.
Yeah, so?
[inhales] Mehdi Belhadj works for Los Soles.
The cartel bosses asked him to kill Chris de Witt.
What's your source?
My informants. Some men in Los Soles.
Either your informants are wrong or trying to play you.
[chuckles] And what makes you so sure of that?
Mehdi Belhadj most likely killed Chris de Witt,
but not for the cartel. It was to avenge his family.
Laurence. Can I call you Laurence?
No. Commissioner Herman.
The cartel is already here.
If they start using your most dangerous thieves,
you'll soon become familiar with the terror they inflict in my country.
Let me help you.
Tell me what you know about Mehdi Belhadj.
I'll give you all the information I have on him,
when you give me proof he works for the cartel.
Meanwhile, I really recommend you get out and see the city.
The cathedral is stunning.
I advise you, Commissioner, to change your coffee.
The coffee of Venezuela is much better.
[cell phone chimes]
[engine turns over]
[elevator bell dings]
[doors open, close]
[Saber] Virgile?
Why'd you call me?
[gun cocks]
Put your gun down.
[gun cocks]
Turn around.
Who sent those guys to kill me? Was it you, or did your cousin do it?
She's dead.
Sofia's dead.
And her killers are the same men who went after you.
What do you mean?
You know the Los Soles cartel?
Venezuelans. 70% of the product coming through Antwerp is theirs.
Chris worked for them.
When you killed him, you wounded the boss' son.
How's your cousin involved?
They asked us to replace Chris.
When we refused, they killed Sofia.
Now they're after me too.
Who are they?
One of the largest cartels in South America.
The guy who came to kill us is restructuring the operation.
Anywhere you go, they'll find you.
Without a war, we'll never have peace.
You can't wage war on a cartel.
Fine, wait for them to find you.
Because that's what will happen.
[door opens, closes]
[exhales]
[Laurence] Tony, make a decision.
[sighs]
- [inhales, clears throat] - [line ringing]
[Tony exhales]
[cell phone vibrates]
[exhales]
Hello.
Yeah, it's me.
You gone yet?
No, I'm still in Brussels.
What about you? You left?
Uh, not yet. I got a loose end I gotta tie up.
Something wrong?
No, I, uh, found somebody that we can use for the diamonds.
Who is it?
You don't know him, but he's good.
In any case, we have to get rid of it quickly.
How soon can you get there?
[Tony] Tonight at eight.
All right, Royal subway station good for you?
Yeah, it's perfect.
-Later. - See you.
What you're doing is for your family. You shouldn't feel guilty.
[exhales]
- Where's your girlfriend? - Downstairs at the pharmacy.
[Mehdi] What did she say about Nahel?
- It's serious. He can't be moved. - [water runs]
And you? What about the Djeblis?
It's not the Djeblis after us. It's a cartel.
What do you mean?
You know the guy I wounded when we stole the diamonds?
- His father is a cartel boss. - Like in Narcos?
Exactly. [exhales]
Tony hooked us up for diamonds. We sell them, and we split.
And what about Nahel?
[gulps] Bring him.
No, no way. I don't want that life for him.
- Liana. - No, you can go, but I'm staying.
I'm not going without you.
I thought of something.
[sighs] This is the phone I took from the guy at Nahel's place.
If we can unlock it, we can figure out who he was working for.
[exhales]
What do you think?
I know someone who can unlock it.
Okay, let's try.
All right.
[Dounia] Let me explain. To get the data off someone's phone,
there's no point in trying to unlock it.
'Cause one dodgy app,
and it'll automatically wipe the whole system.
So instead, you have to transfer the data by copying it.
TRANSFERRING DATA DON'T DISCONNECT THE PHONES
Okay.
There you are.
You messed up the other day though.
I mean, if you wanna hook up, fine, but don't do it in the kids' room.
[chuckles]
TRANSFER COMPLETE
There. It's finished.
It's all on here. The code is four zeros. Cool?
- Perfect. - [Mehdi] Let me see.
Let's check the last GPS addresses.
The hospital. Four times this week.
They must be visiting the guy I wounded.
Can we talk for a minute?
[sighs]
- I'll wait at the hospital alone. - No.
[Mehdi exhales]
I was the one who wounded him, so I'll deal with it alone.
And if it goes wrong, how do I help you?
Don't worry. You're not getting rid of me that easily.
Here. You should hold on to the diamonds.
What is this, my inheritance?
[Mehdi] I expect to get my share when I come back.
[door opens, closes]
[in Spanish] I told your dad you were awake.
You gave us quite the scare.
I'll take care of business while you recover.
Rest up.
We'll have time to talk when you're better.
[siren wailing]
[man laughing]
Easy.
[in English] Why are you here?
It was me who killed Chris
and wounded the guy you're visiting here.
I'm the one responsible. No one else.
Are you asking me to kill you?
I'm asking you to tell me what you want. Whatever it is, I'll do it.
In exchange, you forget me.
[Almeida] My boss wants your head.
Don't worry. I won't have you killed here in front of me.
But know that my men will find you.
You and anyone you're protecting.
[line rings]
- [Liana] Where are you? - I just met the people who are after us.
- And? - They won't leave us alone.
Damn it!
[Mehdi] We have to find a way to make them.
I'm meeting Tony at the Royal subway station.
Get the diamonds and meet us there.
- When? - At eight.
Okay, I'm coming.
[door opens, closes]
[sighs]
[cell phone chimes]
