Set in the gritty underbelly of Paris, Braquo is a hard-hitting police drama that showcases the lengths to which some officers will go to maintain justice in a corrupt world. The show's first episode, titled "Max," follows the members of a police squad as they resort to illegal tactics to avenge the death of one of their own.

The episode opens with a tense stand-off between the police and a group of heavily armed criminals. The operation goes awry when one of the officers, Max, is shot and killed. Shocked and grief-stricken, Max's colleagues quickly learn that the official version of events is a lie - Max was not killed by the criminals, but by a corrupt member of their own force.

Frustrated and furious, the detectives decide to take matters into their own hands. Led by the charismatic but volatile Eddy Caplan, the group begins a dangerous campaign of vigilante justice against those responsible for Max's death. Operating outside the law, they use any means necessary to track down and punish those involved - even if it means breaking the very rules they are sworn to uphold.

As the episode unfolds, tensions within the group begin to mount. Eddy's maverick style puts him at odds with his more cautious colleagues, and their mission quickly spirals out of control. The detectives find themselves embroiled in a deadly game of cat-and-mouse with their own superiors, and must fight to keep their operation under wraps before it's too late.

Despite the high stakes and dangerous consequences, the group remains steadfast in their pursuit of justice. They are willing to risk everything - their careers, their freedom, and even their lives - to avenge Max's death. As the episode draws to a close, the detectives are left to ponder the cost of their actions, and whether the end truly justifies the means.

With its intense action, complex characters, and powerful moral themes, Braquo is a gripping police drama that pulls no punches. "Max," the show's first episode, sets the stage for an epic journey into the heart of darkness, as its flawed heroes struggle to navigate a world where justice comes at a steep price.
