(tense music) - [Officer] Well, well, the great detective.
- I'm Chief Inspector Maigret.
- I'm under pressure.
I need a result.
- Mathilde tells me you can't be bullied.
- Wanna turn a 10-year sentence into 30?
- Don't you judge me.
- My job is to understand, not judge.
- I'm doing detective work for you.
- [Maigret] I believe bad things were done here.
You once said I had peace to make.
Maybe this is how I do it.
- [Boss] I've often felt that he takes too many risks.
- You're planning a dangerous game, boss.
- I could be wrong.
I've been wrong before.
Go.
- One day, he's gonna make a mistake and... - Maigret, you are rolling the dice.
- Do you want to lose your job?
- I want to do my job.
A French citizen was murdered.
I know how, where, when, and I'm close to knowing by who!
- [Chess Player] Curious policeman.
- That's right.
Checkmate.
