00:00Three years.
00:02Seventeen forgeries.
00:06An iris.
00:08On the back of every single one.
00:11A signature.
00:13Left only for me.
00:22And now,
00:24he's asking to meet.
00:27I won't let him get away.
00:46I won't let him get away.
00:56I won't let him get away.
01:00Mope paint 250 water lilies.
01:04Which one is real?
01:16You came.
01:21Three years.
01:29You're the first person
01:30who saw the iris
01:31and didn't run.
01:32You walked towards it.
01:35Sebastian Bell.
01:36That's not my real name.
01:47Good evening, Agent Gray.
01:52The man you just arrested
01:55is our missing property.
02:00Your heart is racing.
02:02Shut up.
02:04Is it the gunfire
02:06or is it me?
02:11They're not here to kill me.
02:13They're here to collect me.
02:17I did a job for them
02:19when I was eighteen.
02:20A forgery.
02:21Then I ran.
02:22They've been looking for me ten years.
02:27You can hand me over to them.
02:29Or...
02:38Run.
02:40Run.
02:55Run.
03:05What's so funny?
03:08An FBI agent just took off my handcuffs.
03:17You're my accomplice now.
03:20I'm keeping you for interrogation.
03:22Then why haven't you put them back on?
03:34Don't you?
03:41Who are you?
04:11You asked me in the museum why I paint an iris on every forgery.
04:19Why?
04:20Alan Gray, your father. I saw his obituary in the newspaper. There was an iris on his windowsill. In the
04:28photograph. He was framed. I knew it.
04:33I painted 17 forgeries. Every one with that flower on the back. I wanted you to find me.
04:38You were painting me before I ever started chasing you?
04:43Who are you, Sebastian Bell?
04:45Sebastian Bell died of pneumonia when he was six years old.
04:51I stole his name. I'm a forger.
05:00What's your real name?
05:03I don't have one.
05:07I was abandoned. Left at the back door of an orphanage in France.
05:12No blanket. No note. Nothing.
05:16The registry says, unnamed. No 17. The nuns called me Little Seventeen.
05:21Then I stole an identity. A boy who died of pneumonia. Six years old. His name was Sebastian Bell.
05:27You stole a dead child's name.
05:29Yes.
05:30I've been living his life for 22 years. School. Housing. Forgeries. All under his name. I forged Vermeer, Rembrandt, Van
05:38Gogh.
05:38Every signature. Someone else's name.
05:41I forged a hundred paintings. And one life. My own.
05:47So, aren't you going to oppress me? Identity theft is a crime.
05:51The organization. Why are they after you?
05:54Because of my teacher. He's the one who forged it.
05:58The Rembrandt they used to frame your father.
06:12Jean-Pierre Moreau. The finest painting restorer in Europe.
06:16He could restore a Michelangelo with his bare hands.
06:19He adopted me when I was 14.
06:23That was the first time I ever had a home.
06:26I had it for one year.
06:28They took me. Told Mora, forge the Rembrandt or you'll never see the boy again.
06:32He did it. But he hid something in the paint layer.
06:34A record of their finish the job. We could walk away.
06:36They didn't kill him. They bought a psychiatrist.
06:39Faked a diagnosis. Ten years.
06:40He makes restoration gestures at an empty wall.
06:43No one believes him. No one listens.
06:45After I escaped, I started forging paintings.
06:47An iris on everyone. I was waiting.
06:49Waiting for what?
06:50For you to see it. For you to find me.
06:52Your father was destroyed by them. So was my teacher.
06:54You were the only person who would believe it.
06:55The organization. Tell me everything you know.
07:01Hello.
07:37I know him. Core member of the organization.
07:43I used to forge auction invitations for him.
07:46He likes to show off private auctions every year.
07:49Members only.
07:56Wentworth has an auction next Friday.
08:02We need two invitations.
08:04I can request an undercover operation.
08:17Forging invitations is easier than forging Rembrandt.
08:50We look like a wedding cake.
08:52Shut up.
09:08That jade disk, it's rumored to contain encrypted data.
09:16Starting at 50,000...
09:28Too risky.
09:29They'll mark you.
09:32We're already accomplices.
09:34What's one more risk?
09:36That's...
09:47Congratulations.
09:54The seller would like to meet you in person.
09:59They're already watching.
10:03Lead the way.
10:24You're Joshua Wentworth.
10:27Among other things.
10:30I attended your father's funeral.
10:35I stood in the back.
10:37You were at the front.
10:38You didn't cry once.
10:41How old were you?
10:4322?
10:45And you?
10:47Your teacher is still waiting for a visit.
10:50Shall I arrange it?
10:53Alan Gray's son.
10:55And Jean-Pierre Moray's little monster.
10:57The two of you together.
10:58How delightful.
10:59The delight won't last.
11:15They don't break the law.
11:17They manipulate it.
11:21You know what they're best at?
11:24Not killing.
11:26Making you kill yourself.
11:28Your father.
11:30They made him into a traitor who sold his own museum.
11:33He walked into his office and never walked out.
11:37My teacher.
11:38They made him into a madman.
11:39He's been restoring an empty wall for ten years.
11:42They don't have to pull a trigger.
11:43They just make the truth disappear.
11:45And the person with it.
11:48Then we make the truth come back.
12:16It's just for the fact that he's pushing for them.
12:19My mother keeps asking them to fix it.
12:19I don't need toans..
12:24The sea is going on.
12:54Mr. Murray suffers from severe paranoid delusions. He believes he was a painting restorer. He believes he was persecuted. Classic
13:01paranoid schizophrenia.
13:03He's not delusional. He was persecuted. Of course. Many families say that.
13:10Who pays for his treatment?
13:25An anonymous benefactor. Very generous. Ten years of payments.
13:32Are you medicating him? Necessary treatment.
13:37What medication?
13:47Revealed in the awful way.
13:48You can't wait until you leave.
13:48You will come back to your mind.
13:48I'm walking inside.
13:48You and the sea are dying.
13:48What, what, what, what, what.
13:52You're dying.
13:54I'm walking inside the sea, right?
13:55I'm walking inside the sea.
13:55You're dead, man.
14:01I'm walking inside the sea.
14:03What you're away.
14:04I'm walking inside.
14:24Your teacher forged the Rembrandt, the one they used to frame my father.
14:33Did you know?
14:38Not when it happened. I was fifteen. I didn't even know what they were making him do.
14:44I found out a year later. By then he was already in that place.
14:48I ran. I could have told someone. But who would believe a kid with no name?
14:55Every painting I forged. Every iris. I was trying to send you a message I didn't have words for.
15:02You were painting me before I even started chasing you.
15:09I didn't have words saying he kept me together.
15:12Anyway.
15:38I've forged for matter.
15:40Rembrandt.
15:41Van Gogh.
15:42Every signature.
15:44Someone else's name.
15:46I don't know how to paint my own.
16:01It doesn't have an original.
16:03I don't know how to paint my own.
16:04I feel it.
16:25My name isこちら.
16:41You needed to see him, I'll wait in the car.
16:43You needed to see him, I'll wait in the car.
17:29You needed to see him, I'll wait in the car.
17:47Then I'll take it.
17:59You painted better than the ones inside.
18:23The teacher is me.
18:53Zurich, he held on to this for ten years, ten years in that room, and he still remembered.
19:15He put this here before they took him, before he forgot everything.
19:18I found these account numbers hidden hidden in the rich electors.
19:22Every transaction, every member forge, hid them, I don't know where the painting is now.
19:27But here is the record.
19:28Alan Gray was innocent.
19:30He kept it because someday, someone would come looking.
19:34He knew my father was innocent.
19:37Before he died, he knew.
19:42And he kept this.
20:09He kept it.
20:37He kept it.
20:38He kept it, as long as he had hearts gotten.
21:09The data from Moray's disk. It's enough. We can bring them down.
21:16Good. That means it's almost over.
21:20When this is done, I want something.
21:25A name. A real one.
21:28One that someone actually thought about. Not stolen. Not borrowed.
21:33Mine.
21:36Okay.
21:42I'll give you one. A real one.
21:57The Bureau. Someone filed a report.
22:00I'm under internal investigation. I have to be back in New York in 24 hours.
22:12If you go in there, they'll suspend you and I'll be unprotected. If you don't go in, you lose your
22:16badge.
22:19I know.
22:22Then I'll make it easy.
22:25What are you doing?
22:26My name is Sebastian Bell. No, that's not true. I don't have a name. I'm the forger you've been chasing
22:32for three years. I'm Knox.
22:34And I coerced Agent Gray into all of this. He was trying to stop me.
22:38No!
22:40You have the evidence. The disk. The letter.
22:43You can take them down without me.
22:46But you can't do that if they take your badge.
22:49I don't care about the badge!
22:54I know you don't.
22:56But you care about your father.
22:57And you care about the truth.
22:59So let me do this.
23:40Elliot, this disk has everything. Every transaction. Every name. It can clear your father.
23:44I wanted to give it to you in person. But in case I can't, here it is.
23:47I started painting these the day I found out who you were.
23:49You were 25. I was 21.
23:51I've been waiting for you to find me for seven years.
23:53Don't stop now.
24:00I won't.
24:05Agent Gray, you are accused of aiding a known fugitive, tampering with evidence, unauthorized undercover operations.
24:12How do you respond?
24:18I plead guilty to all of it.
24:20But before you take my badge, you should see this.
24:29Oh!
24:32This is the Collectors, a transnational antiquities-traffling network.
24:36They framed father ten years ago.
24:38They imprisoned an innocent man in a psychotic hospital for a decade.
24:42This evidence was preserved by Jean-Pierre Moray and delivered to you by Sebastian Bell.
24:47And what about you?
24:50I broke every rule. I would do it again.
24:53This badge, I wore it for ten years.
24:57My only regret is not breaking the rule sooner.
25:08You look good without the suit.
25:15I'm going to get you out.
25:16No rush.
25:18I'm safe in here.
25:19The Collectors can't touch me.
25:20You go out there and put them away.
25:22Take down Wenford.
25:23Clear your father.
25:24Free my teacher.
25:25And then?
25:27And then you come get me.
25:28With the thing you promised.
25:43I will.
26:09This isn't a story about crime.
26:11It's a story about a truth that waited ten years to be heard.
26:14My father, Alan Gray, was innocent.
26:16Jean-Pierre Moray was not insane.
26:17And the man who made all of this possible, he doesn't have a name.
26:20But he gave me back my father's.
26:30The delight didn't last.
26:33The delight didn't last.
26:37The delight didn't last.
26:54The delight didn't last.
26:56The delight didn't last.
27:17Dad, Agent Gray, the review board has cleared you of all charges.
27:23Your badge.
27:25You earned it back.
27:30But I have somewhere else to go first.
27:48Forgery.
27:50Deception of federal agents.
27:52Obstruction of justice.
27:5417 confirmed counts.
28:00Does the defense wish to call any witnesses?
28:05The prosecution calls Elliot Gray as a character witness for the defendant.
28:17He forged 17 paintings.
28:20He also assisted the FBI in exposing a transnational trafficking network that operated for over half a century.
28:25He saved a man's name.
28:27No.
28:28Two men's names.
28:33He turned himself in to protect an FBS degustation.
28:36He has no birth certificate.
28:37No legal identity.
28:38He's never owned his own name.
28:40And he still did all of this.
28:43Mr. Gray, that is not a legal argument.
28:46No.
28:46It's a human one.
28:48Two years imprisonment.
28:50Suspended sentence.
28:51Community service.
28:53Community service.
28:54Assisting the FBI art crime team with authenticity detection.
29:05You promised me something.
29:12I took part of my name.
29:15Elliot.
29:15Elliot.
29:16Elian.
29:18It means you're not alone anymore.
29:20It's yours.
29:22If you want it.
29:26So this is what a real name feels like.
29:32Helen.
29:34Is it a genuine or a forgery?
29:36Genuine.
29:37Your first one.
30:06Excuse me.
30:07Are these all genuine?
30:10Genuine.
30:32A forgery is copying some someone else's answer.
30:36The genuine thing is.
30:38When you look at me.
30:41I finally dare to ask who I am.
