History Recap / LupinPart1Chapter3

* VoiceChangeling: While conducting his interrogation, Assane uses a voice modifier in an attempt to conceal his identity from Dumont.

* TheCuckoolanderWasRight: Turns out Arsène Lupin fanboy Guédira was entirely correct about Dumont's location, despite Laugier and Belkacem ridiculing him for it.

When he wakes up, Dumont is horrified to discover that he has been kidnapped and is handcuffed to a chair. In an adjacent room, Assane begins interrogating him over a loudspeaker about his initial investigation into the disappearance of the queen's necklace, accusing him of colluding with Hubert Pellegrini to [[{{Frameup}} frame]] Babakar. Dumont desperately claims that the work he did was completely clean and above-board, asserting that he legitimately believed that Babakar was guilty. The interrogation goes awry when a furious Assane accidentally reveals that he is Babakar's son. He leaves shortly before the police arrive on the scene and rescue Dumont, who states that he does not know the identity of his kidnapper.

The interrogation ultimately ends when an enraged Assane accidentally reveals that he is Babakar's son. He leaves shortly before the police arrive on the scene and rescue Dumont, who does not give Assane's name to his subordinates.

{{Flashback}} scenes reveal that in 1995, Dumont found evidence that firmly ruled Babakar out of having stolen the necklace. Hubert Pellegrini, on the other hand, had had its insurance policy increased shortly before it went missing. Putting two and two together, Dumont realized that Hubert was intending to commit insurance fraud while setting Babakar up as the FallGuy; however, when he confronted Hubert, the powerful businessman made vague threats against Dumont's wife while asserting that he'd get off scot-free as a result of his friendship with Dumont's superiors. Ultimately, Dumont agreed to comply with Hubert's plan to imprison Babakar.

Armed with Anne Pellegrini's allegations about Dumont, now the commissioner of Paris' police force, Assane bugs his house and makes plans to kidnap and interrogate him while he's attending a meeting at one of Paris' town halls. Dressed as an IT worker, Assane enters the room where Dumont is having his meeting and loudly claims that there is an issue surrounding the presence of porn on Dumont's work computer. Mortified, Dumont leaves the meeting and allows Assane to lead him into a deserted corridor; there, Assane knocks him unconscious and brings him to a cellar underneath the town hall.

* OpenMouthInsertFoot: Frustrated that Dumont is refusing to give him the information that he wants, Assane loses his cool and yells about "my father," instantly revealing who he is.

* BottleEpisode: A large proportion of this episode takes place in Assane's interrogation room in the basement of one of Paris' town halls.

* NotSoDifferentRemark: In order to get on Assane's good side, Dumont tries to claim this about himself and Babakar (i.e. both did questionable and illegal things for the sake of their children).

* MoodWhiplash: Assane briefly pauses his interrogation with Dumont to have a very personal and emotional phone conversation with Claire about the state of his relationship with their son, and her worries about him. She also [[LivingLieDetector easily deduces that he's up to no good]] and pleads with him to fill her in on what's actually going on, but he doggedly [[LockedOutOfTheLoop refuses to do so.]]
