History
- He was recently acquitted in a public trial, as Teddy knows from his work.
- At the auction he stands, seizes the dagger at gunpoint and fires at the ceiling. Irti deflects his weapon; Teddy tries to tie his shoelaces and takes a kick in the face.
- He flees with Camille on his heels. She has already punctured a tire of his getaway car, which crashes and explodes.
- Vita escapes, but with a forgery: the real dagger is already in Camille’s purse. The police never determine who kept the relic.
