There's nothing that we can't get through together.
I'm so sorry this is happening.
(exhales) FLORIAN: Everything that we have... You can come to me at any moment.
Florian Barby and Angelina Cuyper.
The Cuyper dynasty, the diamond family.
We know who they are.
Mum, Geraldine, died two months ago after an unsuccessful heart transplant.
They're launching a new range of diamonds in her memory.
Now, you might want to prepare yourselves.

HENDRIK: Aha!
Fingernail, if I'm not mistaken.

FLORIAN: Sorry to cut in, but I just rang Marielle, Angie's sister.
Someone left her a gift, too.
Commissaris Van der Valk.
What's going on now?
PIET: Yeah.
What did Marielle want?
FLORIAN: Nothing.
It's fine, just stay calm.
Calm?!
There's a chunk of a body there, and you want me to stay calm?!
Okay, on my way.
Your friend's right.
Calm's good.

Gonna need you.
HENDRIK: Well, tough.

Well, I don't know why, you see double most of the time.
Ooh, bit below the belt, Piet.
You stay here.
Phone Brad, get him to meet me.
I've already tried, no answer.
All right, well, try again till you get one.
LUCIENNE: Okay, so, torso and lower half.
There's no sign of a head?
Well, statistically, the killer would have kept the head, as a trophy or memento.
It's, um, a symbol of power, the ultimate act of possession.

Victim unknown.
MARIELLE: His name's Ahmet Baykam.
He's a diamond polisher at our factory.
Are you normally familiar with the genitalia of your employees?
It's a pre-condition of employment.
He has a mole on his groin?
Let's just say that I'm familiar with it.

Convenient.
BRAD: Uh, do you mind if I ask you some questions about your relationship with the deceased?
No.
I wouldn't call it a relationship.
More of a fling, you know?
Younger man.
Older woman.
I see.
PIET: Did you know he was dating your sister?
(chuckles): Everyone's dated Angelina.
I meant the other one, Marielle.
What about business rivals?
Feuds?
Competitors in a tough market.
These are changing times, full of geopolitical and economic uncertainty, but nothing to warrant this.
Changing times?
We're modernizing, expanding into new territories.
To be honest, we could do without this.
Well, I, I reckon Ahmet Baykam could, too.
We'll make sure the Baykams are well looked after.
Family is everything to us.
We've built our reputation on it.
It's why we're so respected.
If you're so respected, why would someone dump Mr. Baykam's head and shoulders in your cellar?
(exhales) ♪ ♪ Um, and how long did that last?
The sex?
Or how long we were seeing each other?
Few weeks, seeing him-- not the sex.
(chuckles) Ahmet was a hustler.
Trying to use me to get ahead in the company.
I see, is that, is that why you ended it?
Of course not.
Loved his ambition.
(sighs): I just, uh, got bored of him.
Definition of fling: a short period of enjoyment or wild behavior, yeah?
What's this?
It's the showpiece of a new range in my mother's memory.
I thought diamonds were more desirable when they were clear.
What's that in the middle?
My mother's heart.
When she agreed to the transplant, she decided to have the old heart reduced to ashes and placed inside a diamond.
"Waste not, want not."
One of her many sayings.
Putting her heart into her work.
Exactly.
So what happened to the new heart?
Her body rejected it, three weeks after the operation.
Who runs the company now?
I'm acting up, but nothing's formalized until the will is read tomorrow.
(door opens) Ah, finally.
Come here.

As you'd expect.
I've called Dr. Gruber to calm Angelina's nerves.
CORNELIS: Hm.

I'm their family psychotherapist.
And why does the family need a psychotherapist?
To help us deal with our wealth.
♪ ♪ LUCIENNE: Thank you.
Thank you.
(Sniffer whining) JULIA: Ah!
Don't even think about it.
BRAD: I'll check out the, uh, psychotherapa-wotsit.
Perhaps he can help me come to terms with my salary.
I've definitely got issues.
JULIA: You certainly get more than your fair share of free pastries.
CLIFF: You can always talk to me over a beer.
BRAD: Ah, fair point.
PIET: What's the deal with Marielle Cuyper and the victim?
BRAD: Oh, um, purely transactional.
He's using her to climb the company ladder, and she just wanted to climb all over him.
Dumped him as soon as she got bored.
Jealous lover?
Is Marielle Cuyper married?
CLIFF: No, divorced.
That marriage was a disaster from the start.
Husband ran off with a dancer.
PIET: The Cuypers will want to keep this out of the press, presumably.
JULIA: Well, they can try.
But it's not our problem.
You not a fan?
I've never been a diamond type of a girl.
I liked Geraldine, though, you know?
Woman in a man's world and all that.
She have a husband?
No, he died way back.
Just after Angelina was born.
And Geraldine responded by obsessively plowing her heart and soul into the company.
(phone vibrates) Didn't you say you asked Cornelis Cuyper if they had any enemies?
PIET: I did.
None that he knows of.
Seems odd.
Here's one, Jacob Prins, Cuyper's chief buyer, was with the company for more than 40 years.
But sacked two months ago, lodged a complaint for unfair dismissal.
PIET: All right, let's check him out.
Wasn't happy about the direction that the company was moving in, apparently.
There's new markets in Singapore and Russia.
The smart money is that they're gearing up to sell to the highest bidder.
No overdrafts, presumably.
Mansions in Greece, Nice, and the Bahamas.
A fleet of helicopters.
They use them like we use taxis, even got their own helipad.
Geraldine was worth 13 billion when she died.
BRAD: Whoo!
But was she happy?
Not when her transplant didn't take.
Some things money can't buy.
Will's being read tomorrow.
LUCIENNE: Don't you think it's odd?
We've got three rich people living in high-end properties, but security cameras were avoided or disabled.
It's implying intricate planning.
Or insider knowledge.
Right, check with employees, security cameras for the last few days.
Have we got a phone and address for the victim?
Ahmet Baykam, he lives in the North.
He didn't have a phone on him, but we're checking records.
Baykam?
Why do I know that name?
Next of kin been informed?
LUCIENNE: Not yet.
Right, who wants to break the news?
(softly): I'm not doing it.
Looks like it's you, Piet.
Hey!
Great.
Can I have a word later?
Yeah, sure.
JOB: Don't touch my pastry!
Oh, Piet!
NAZ: Five... four... three... two... one, and rest.
Thank you for today.
♪ ♪ You following me?
(pocket unzips) No.
I'm looking for 101, Ahmet Baykam.
He lives with me.
I'm his sister, Naz.
Is there somewhere we can go?
I've got some bad news.
(sighs) You're not very good at the bad news stuff, are you?
PIET: It's not my strong point, no.
I'm better at arresting people.
I told Ahmet not to work there.
Because?
It was never his world.
Polishing diamonds like the Big I Am.
Bragging about it.
Could that've got him into trouble?
What do you think?
Ahmet was impressed by all that glitz and glamour.
His job was anything but.
I got the impression he thought he could climb the company ladder.
Didn't get very far, did he?
How was he killed?
Are you sure you want to know?
I need to.
He was killed by a blow to the head.
Body was cut into sections, dumped at the doors of the Cuyper siblings.
(footsteps approaching) (exhales) Yusuf Baykam-- it's been a while.
Not long enough.
What do you want with my sister?
Diamond's new.
How do you two know each other?
He's the reason I went to prison.
PIET: Well, that and the fact you beat someone to a pulp.
NAZ: Hey!
Not now.
Someone has killed Ahmet, cut him into pieces.
PIET: This might not be the time, but was Ahmet involved in your line of work?
I don't know what you're talking about.
Victim's brother, Yusuf, low-level gangster.
Guess this could be gang-related.
Let's get the guys to check him out.
On it.
PIET: Right, what we got on that fingernail?
Sent to the lab.
But if you want answers from it, you're gonna have to swab the family, their whole workforce, and anyone else who came into contact with the victim.
Okay, we'll do our best.
Right, the corpse.
Quite a puzzle, hm.
Easy bit first: time of death between 7:00 and 10:00.
Blunt trauma to the head.
The slicing into three was done postmortem.
There's no vital reaction.
There's actually a couple of bits missing.
But, uh, ask me what he was cut into pieces with.
PIET: I mean, you could just tell us, save us the time.
(chuckles): To be honest, I've no idea.
Well, I say I have no idea.
At first, it, it seemed like he was sliced by thin air.
There's no tool marks, no fragments, no traces, nada, jack diddly.
And then, oh, then I realized... Water.
He was sliced into three by water!
A jet fired at intense pressure from one of these.
A waterjet cutter.
Occasionally used in the jewelry industry.
(knocks) JULIA: Yep.
(door shuts) She looks happy.
She's in a sugar-induced coma, and if you do that to her again, I'll have you transferred abroad.
She all right, generally?
JULIA: Well, no, she chews the curtains, barks at birds, and keeps sniffing out my neighbor's marijuana.
How can I help?
What didn't you tell me about Job?
What you don't need to know.
You have to trust me on this one.
You never kept something from me before.
Like I said, trust me, Piet.
VITO: Amsterdam!
City of Diamonds!
Did you know the biggest diamond in the universe is the core of a planet, and weighs 2,000 trillion tons?
Or that a candle flame contains millions of tiny diamonds?
(continues in distance) Were you asking Dahlman about Job?
No.
Now you're lying, as well.
(sighs) Must be contagious.
VITO: My name is Vito, and I will see you later to show you some dazzling diamonds-- enjoy!
Florian Barby checks out, by the way.
Well-respected psychotherapist, ran a thriving practice before he joined the Cuypers.
Nice gig.
Pays well, presumably.
Yeah, until something like this turns up.
I mean, someone slices Ahmet Baykam into three and delivers him to his employers.
How do you unpick that?
Strange behavior.
It's no stranger than having your heart locked inside a diamond forever.
Oh, I don't know.
I think that one rather appeals to me.
Well, you say that.
We both know your heart's been opening up a bit recently.
Do you think so?
Maybe I should take a look at that.
Don't-- it's a good thing.
It's about time.
Beautiful.
CHAIM: As was your mother.
You sure going ahead with this launch is a good idea?
Yes.
Mum would've insisted.
(door opens) LUCIENNE: Thanks.
So, this is the star of the show.
PIET: You don't look too happy about it.
Mind you, a body chopped in three has that effect, I guess.
It kind of takes the shine off of things.
Not how I imagined today starting.
Aside from the personal connection to your mother, is the diamond itself valuable?
Yes.
Given its color and clarity, 201 carats.
Only the best for Mum.
Why didn't you tell me Jacob Prins lodged a complaint for unfair dismissal?
Because I didn't think it was relevant.
But he's clearly unhappy with you guys at the minute.
CORNELIS: We parted on bad terms, but he's a civilized man.
Well, we'll need to speak to Mr. Prins all the same.
As part of his severance package, we bought him a gem store near Dam Square.
Do you use waterjet cutters here?
No, it's all lasers now.
We used to use them for engraving jewelry, but we use a new technique now.
The process has changed, techniques have advanced.
We're gonna need DNA samples of you, your family, your employees, and we need a word with Mr. Baykam's colleagues.
Of course.
I'll get Vito to take you up to the workshop.
VITO: Ahmed wasn't exactly a team player.
Did that create tension?
Not with me.
I thought he was a breath of fresh air, but... Not everyone did.
This is where Ahmet worked, with the legend that is Chaim, who's been here since the 15th century.
Less of the cheek, please.
These guys are here about Ahmet.
We got the impression he liked the high life.
How was he about being stuck in here?
It wasn't what he imagined at all.
That's why he went for Jacob's old job as a buyer.
PIET: Did he get it?
CHAIM: Indeed, he did.
It was announced just the other day.
We gather Mr. Prins wasn't happy about losing his job.
Maybe he took his frustration out on his successor.
Jacob's no murderer.
Yeah, so people keep saying.
Jacob was old-school.
He believed the company was betraying its roots.
And was it?
I think so.
Geraldine's illness made her too weak to resist and retain control.
What was Geraldine like as a mother?
Not a natural.
That's why she hired Florian.
Throw money at the problem.
PIET: You designed the 0708, right?
In as much as it had anything to do with me.
Geraldine always said, "Cleaving a diamond is like bringing a new life "into the world.
"We don't fashion it, "we release it.
"The diamond has been there for millennia, waiting."
Presumably, you saw Ahmet Baykam yesterday.
How was he?
In great form.
He was going on a date to celebrate his promotion.
Who with?
I've no idea who with-- he wouldn't say.
Left just before 7:00.
There's not much room, is there?
Any personal space?
VITO: We have lockers.
I'll show you.
♪ ♪ Cell 23.
Near Dam Square, right?
Yeah.
Was that his date last night?
Could be.
PIET: I'll check it out.
You pay Jacob Prins a visit.
(bicycle bell rings) YUSUF: All right, Mr. Prins.
Yusuf Baykam-- Ahmet's brother?
Who wants to know?
LUCIENNE: What are you doing here?
I want another one of these.
Not a crime, is it?
Don't leave on my account.
It will keep.
(bicycle bell rings) ♪ ♪ (pocket unzips) Commissaris Van der Valk.
Were you working last night?
And every other night, unfortunately.
You see this man by any chance?
Can't say I did.
No?
Take another look.
7:30, that's peak, right?
You have to book a table at that time.
Absolutely.
Ah, well, maybe there's a booking under his name, Ahmet Baykam.
Baykam?
LUCIENNE: Yusuf Baykam wants another diamond?
And the real reason he's here?
He wants to know what happened to his brother, he knows that I fell out with the Cuypers.
Figured I might be able to dish the dirt.
Hm, did you?
No.
Or maybe, like us, he's wondering how you felt about his brother getting your old job.
I didn't know he had.
I gather you weren't happy about the direction the company was going in.
Correct.
As soon as Geraldine became ill, Marielle and Cornelis started taking over.
Who do you think will inherit the company?
Hopefully not Marielle-- she's harder than a cut diamond.
None of her mother's class, beauty, or dignity.
Geraldine shouldn't have died.
Excuse me?
They let her recuperate at the family retreat in Greece.
She should never have traveled, and I accused them of effectively killing her.
I guess that would annoy them.
She was way too far from the nearest hospital.
But presumably doctors allowed the trip.
Of course, Doc Gruber and his medical team went with her.
But he's on the payroll, he does as he's told.
And Florian was there, but he's an employee, too.
Hm.
Would you say you're bitter?
(inhales) Cuypers was my life.
This is not the same.
Where were you last night?
I was at the opera.
"Rigoletto."

Sorry, nothing.
Right, let me look.
(exhaling through teeth) There's a Cuyper down here.
Which one?

No way-- Angie.
She stuck around for about half an hour, necking it, until she realized her date wasn't coming and she flounced out.
Okay, thanks for all your help.
(phone vibrating) (phone stops) (chuckles) How you getting on with Ahmet Baykam's phone?
Last call was from a pre-paid number.
There's no definite way of tracing it.
Whoa, here's something.
Victim's brother Yusuf was arrested recently following an altercation with his now-dead brother.
♪ ♪ (car doors closing, engine starts) (exhales) Are you here to offer fake condolences, as well?
We're looking for your brother Yusuf, actually.
Do you know where he is?
Not here.
I'm not my brother's keeper, all right?
Sadly.
How did Yusuf get on with Ahmet?
Only we've heard they had a fight.
And?
You got any siblings?
One of eight, me, yeah.
Fashionably called a blended family.
Dad married three times.
Let's just say first up, best dressed.
Explains a lot.
Then you know all about petty squabbles and fistfights, yeah?
Never landed us in trouble with the police, though.
And none of us ever went to prison for assault.
So, Yusuf has history with his brother, you automatically think he killed him?
I'm just asking.
They rowed.
What of it?
Yusuf wasn't a fan of Ahmet working for the Cuypers, but he wouldn't kill his own brother.
We're all trying to get out of this dump.
Make something of ourselves-- I do this, Ahmet tried Cuypers.
And Yusuf?
Is his own man.
JOB: The Cuypers offering their condolences, was that the only reason they were here?
That and to buy our silence.
A generous settlement for Ahmet.
Mention of getting me my own gym, even.
Mm... On the understanding we don't talk to the press, of course.
Did you accept?
Did I, hell!
Unlike Ahmet, I can't be bought.
(hitting bag) Hi.
Duty calls.
(door intercom beeps) ANGELINA (over speaker): Yeah?
Hey, Angie, are you decent?
ANGELINA: Never!
You got company.
ANGELINA: I'll be right down.

No, a fivesome-- even better.
Doc Gruber's here, too.
That's practically an orgy.
♪ ♪ You okay?
ANGELINA: Oh, nothing that the Doc's happy pills won't sort.
Isn't that right, Doc?
Angelina needs rest.
She's still grieving.
I'd rather she didn't answer too many questions, if that's all right.
This won't take long.
I'll let myself out.
Actually, can I have a word?
Yeah.
No launch for you, please.
I'll ring later.
Yay!
I'll be here.
Or hereabouts, who knows?
There'll be fizz at the launch, right?
(sighs) We've identified the body.
ANGELINA: I heard-- Ahmet.
Who you were meant to be meeting at Cell 23 last night.
Only he didn't turn up.
What'd you do when you left the bar?
I rang Florian.
He helped me drown my sorrows.
What time was that?
FLORIAN: About 10:30.
So, what were you doing between 7:00 and 10:30?
Not sure, really.
I don't take rejection well.
If you know what I mean.
(bell ringing) Geraldine Cuyper's death, could it have been avoided?
No, no.
Her body rejected the donor heart.
It's a risk with any transplant.
But if she'd have been here rather than Greece... Huh.
Could she have been saved?
(chuckles): Have you been talking to Jacob?
No, no.
The rejection of the donor heart triggered a massive stroke.
She died almost instantaneously.
I take it we can access the death certificate and all the appropriate documentation for the return of her body to the country.
Yes, of course-- is that all?
(car door closes) Cuypers often sleep with their employees?
ANGELINA (chuckles): We're the Cuypers.
We do what we want.
What's it to you, anyway?
PIET: Oh, it's a pattern.
Ahmet Baykam was also sleeping with your sister.
You didn't know.
But you did.
ANGELINA: What?
Why didn't you tell me?
Marielle told me in confidence.
(sighs) PIET: Keeper of the secrets, huh?
If necessary.
Yeah, Ahmet tried to use his liaison with Marielle to further his position in the company.
Did he do the same thing with you?
(chuckles) Well, I guess he did, yeah.
In what way?
Did you swing it for him to get Jacob Prins' old job?
I might have put in a word.
And who should have got the job, if you hadn't "put in a word"?
ANGELINA: The one that Ahmet couldn't stand.
PIET: A name might be useful.
(Angelina sighs) The one who does all the talks, Vito Vinke.
Vito Vinke, passed over for promotion in favor of Ahmet Baykam.
JOB: So maybe he kills him and dumps him at the Cuypers' in revenge.
The cameras at the houses pick him up, or anyone else?
No, tech went back a couple of weeks.
There's nothing out of the ordinary.
All right, victim's movements on the night.
What do we know?
LUCIENNE: Left the diamond factory at 7:00, but never made it to his 7:30 date with Angelina Cuyper at Cell 23.
This is the most direct route from the factory to the restaurant.
All right, let's check shops, streets, cafes along the way.
See if we can find Baykam or his killer on camera.
Other suspects?
Yeah, former employee Jacob Prins has an ax to grind with the Cuypers.
Was close to Geraldine and convinced she was being pushed out.
Claims he was at the opera last night.
Online booking confirms that he bought a ticket, but that doesn't mean that he went.
Victim also has a history with his own brother, Yusuf Baykam.
LUCIENNE: Yeah, who was hanging out at Jacob Prins' place earlier.
Angelina Cuyper.
I don't imagine she liked being stood up.
Hell hath no fury and all that.
PIET: Possible.
She can't fully account for her movements at the time of Baykam's death.
What about Florian Barby, the psychotherapist?
Well, maybe you should have a word.
JULIA: Oh, Piet seeing a psychotherapist?
Music to my ears.
(exhales) (knock at door) It's a nice office.
Do all your clients give you somewhere to work?
Yes, in that the Cuypers are my only clients.
A job for life?
Not at all.
We took it a year at a time, but Geraldine was keen on an exclusive commitment.
Oh, so the Cuypers own you.
They hire me.
Well, this allows me the freedom to write papers and articles.
They're good employers.
Jacob Prins might disagree.
Jacob's mistake was that he thought he was indispensable.
He failed to see that change was happening and went off at the deep end.
In what way?
Well, he kicked off.
With lawyers, in the press.
Kept coming round here and mouthing off.
Where were you last night before Angelina called you?
Well, if you must know, I attended an online seminar given by an associate of mine: "Family Matters: True or False?"
Angelina-- is that work or social thing?
I go when and where the family need me.
Angelina's not normally quite this volatile.
But she took her mother's death very badly.
All she's ever wanted was her mother's approval, and the chance to shine.
Do you sleep with her?
No.
Was she upset about being stood up?
(chuckles) I'm bound by confidentiality.
Oh.
Can you talk about Mum, then?
What was she like?
Passionate about diamonds.
They were her life.
What, over and above her family?
She put the company first.
Why is Cornelis acting up, ahead of Marielle?
Because he was always willing to put the firm first.
Dutiful and obedient.
Where both sisters were rebellious.
(magazine drops) Do you sleep with him?
Why the interest in my sex life?
Did Ahmet Baykam?
(inhales) I'll take that as a yes.
And yet Cornelis, he didn't mention that to me when I was down in the cellar with his former lover's head.
Cornelis isn't open about his sexuality.
Which is his freedom.
Was Ahmet using him, as well?
Cornelis upset about that?
Not enough to kill someone.
And anyway, why would he deliver part of the body to himself?
Good way of deflecting attention.
Bit extreme, isn't it?
You tell me.
I mean, you're the expert.
In your professional opinion, what kind of person chops a body into three sections, and then dumps them on individual doorsteps?
Well, it's deliberate.
Vengeful.
There's an arrogance to it.
(chuckles) So logically, this is the street that Ahmet Baykam would have taken to get to Cell 23.
All right, you take that side of the street, I'll take this.
First one to get him on security footage buys the beers.
I'm not a gambling man, really.
Yeah, no fun, either.
And for the record, I only back certainties.

Well, surely with everything that's happened, they need you more than ever.
I think it's time to move on.
♪ ♪ Do you think he's telling the truth?
No idea.
But the online seminar he attended, check whether he was there by computer or phone.
I'll catch you up.
(footsteps approaching) Working late?
You know, I reckon you're the eyes and ears around here.
I keep my head down and nose out.
♪ ♪ Geraldine Cuyper.
Were you fond of her?
Very.
Must have been emotional, then, working on a diamond in her memory, the ashes of her heart.
It was.
That's a nice ring.
Is it new?
Fairly.
In the photographs downstairs, your hands are bare.
Now this.
That's a mourning ring if I'm not mistaken, where people keep a token of someone who's passed.
Yes.
I put the ashes of Geraldine's old heart into the 0708.
And there was some left over.
Forgive me.
Oh, there's nothing to forgive.
Although...
I am going to have to borrow your ring.
A ring, for you.
I didn't know you cared.
I don't.
But I might, if you rush it through for me.
PIET: Progress!
BRAD: Uh, yeah, no... Maybe, um... You?
Say no, please say no.
Going through an inventory of the Cuypers' assets dating back... Florian Barby attended the seminar by phone, not computer.
Why does that matter?
He could have been anywhere at the time-- turns his phone on, joins the seminar, doesn't mean he attended.
It's a smart alibi, maybe.
He's also the sole director of Sunset Holdings, so he bought the island.
I mean, that doesn't make any sense.
I don't know, I think it might.
JOB: Boom!
Back in the '90s, the Cuypers owned a manufacturing warehouse here, very close to where Ahmet Baykam received his call.
Maybe that's where he went.
♪ ♪ Disinfectant.
Yeah, it's a clean-up job.
(blows out softly) (Brad whistles softly) ♪ ♪ I think we just found where Ahmet Baykam was killed.

We've got airports and borders covered.
What about helicopters?
There's a helipad on Java Island.
Yeah?
HENDRIK (on phone): We've got a match.
Contents of the ring-- minute traces of DNA.
100% perfect match for the fingernail.
(engines starting) (sirens wailing) Hi, you.
Sorry I'm not there.
In fact, I'm sorry I've never been there for you.
I regret that now.
I've recorded this just in case I die.
I want to start by talking about diamonds.
Of course, first and foremost, diamonds are a girl's best friend.
They are also the hardest material on Earth.
They all have a weak spot-- we all do.
Which makes us unique.
The question is, what about you?
Are you strong?
Have you got what it takes?
I hope so.
Because the company is yours now.
I've transferred it into your name.
Your heart is in the right place.
That's all that matters.
(sirens wailing) ♪ ♪ (siren wailing) ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ (exhales) You going somewhere?
Koh-I-Noor, maybe?
(fires) No!
What are you doing?
Are you mad?
Tell me about Ahmet.
Okay, all right.
I told him, I told him to back off.
But he started digging.
He followed me to the warehouse, he tried to blackmail me.
About what?
Who else was at the warehouse?
Who's in the car?
No one.
Really?
(gun fires) No, don't!
So you killed him.
And you sliced him into three.
An arrogant, vengeful act, you said.
But it wasn't, was it?
It was just to point the finger at Jacob Prins.
Were you in the house when he ranted at the camera?
Did you hear every word?
(fires) No, wait, wait!
I am waiting.
FLORIAN: Okay.
Jacob heard about the sale of Koh-I-Noor.
He traced it back to me.
He started asking awkward questions.
♪ ♪ It's your turn.
(car door opens) ♪ ♪ (car door closes) Enjoy.
The company is mine now.
So...
Things are about to change.
Not dead, then?
Far from it.
My heart is stronger now than it's ever been.
Yours?
A bit broken, but still beating.
Hmm... Ahmet's death was not Florian's fault.
Ahmet became aggressive and attacked him.
I tried to stop him, but he pushed me away.
So I grabbed a brick, and I killed him.
Florian was just covering for me.
Same when Doc started panicking.
(exhales) FLORIAN: I found love.
And I'd do anything to protect it.
Oh, darling.
Which is why you took the diamond.
So we couldn't link its contents to the fingernail, which you saw us find.
But why?
Why fake your death?
You could have just gone.
Oh, no.
The family, the business.
Alive, they would have come knocking always.
Dead, they couldn't.
Have you ever been truly in love?
Believe me, you have to grab your chance of happiness with both your hands.
Or what's the point?
(sighs) Next life, maybe?
Yeah, yeah, that's right, yeah.
Great, all right.
♪ ♪ How did you know?
A few things.
But mainly... "You can fake anything if you got 13 billion big ones in the bank."
Even your own death.
Nice one, Brad, you cracked it.
I did?
Yeah, I knew that.
