How It All Goes Down
- Collet radios Fache to tell him he thinks Langdon just committed suicide by jumping out the window.
- Then he radios to report that now he's moving, so he must be alive, and in a car.
- Fache looks out the same window from which he jumped, and sees a large delivery truck that must have been stopped under the window at a red light only moments before.
- Collet immediately pulls his men from the Louvre perimeter to follow that truck.
- Fache calls for his car. He wants to be there when they get the truck. And he's satisfied, because Langdon has just confirmed his guilt by running. Case closed.
- But trick's on Fache: Langdon and Sophie never left the Louvre. They're hiding in the dark Grand Gallery.
- Sophie'd pressed Langdon's tracking dot into a bar of soap, smashed the window with the garbage can, and then thrown the soap onto the tarp of the truck stopped below them.
- Langdon decides that Sophie is way smarter than he is, so he's okay with her calling the shots.
