from Paris to Lisbon, and his associates deliver the drugs to him in Bordeaux, so Edouard makes arrangements for Mathieu to be picked up in Bayonne. However, Simon's crew have bought a helicopter, which Louis hovers over the moving train once it is out in the country. Paul lowers Simon onto the roof, and Simon breaks into Mathieu's cabin, knocks Mathieu out, and steals the drugs. Furious that the drugs were not recovered, Edouard berates Gaby and slaps her around for supposedly giving him bad information. When Morand brings him the news that Marc had a criminal record, so investigators were able to learn his real name, Edouard recognizes it as that of an associate of Louis, who is a known associate of Simon. He calls Simon, who is not available, and then calls his chief to ask if Marc's name can be kept out of the news, but the chief says he is too late. Edouard arrests Louis at a restaurant and brings him to the precinct, where he somehow (likely using some form of torture) manages to get the seemingly-indomitable man to name Simon and Paul. He goes to Simon's club alone and asks Simon if he knows Marc, Paul, or Louis, which Simon denies, and then lets Simon know Louis talked before leaving. Simon calls to warn Paul, but Edouard and some of his men arrive outside his building as they talk. While the police burst into Paul's apartment and past his wife, he gets a gun, and Edouard lets him shoot himself in the head. Simon takes the drugs and hides out in a hotel, but, when he calls Cathy to pick him up, the police trace the call. As he walks to her car, Edouard, gun drawn, calls his name and tells him not to move. He approaches Edouard and reaches into his overcoat, so Edouard shoots. When no gun is found on Simon's body, Morand asks why Edouard shot so quickly, and Edouard says he was not sure Simon was going to kill himself. Edouard and Cathy exchange a look before he and Morand go off to work on another case. Their car phone rings, but they do not answer.
