"Request for Assistance A-15/99" "Hi." "Torben!" " Look who's here." " Back early?" "We had to give up." "We were always going to be troubled by a crafty killer." " And we just met one." " He's talking shit." " We got a full confession." " Bravo." "The case didn't get going till I arrived." " Impressive work as usual." " Cut out the praise, Ulf." " Torben's full of it." " Or deluded?" "Why not go polish your nails?" "Who'd fix up your mess then?" "Ulf!" "Where's that cheap bubbly?" "The soccer's on soon." " Your wife never sees you." " She loves me watching soccer." " Some marriage, Fischer!" " I agree." "See you." " Want a drink?" " I have an interrogation." "Now?" " Jesper Olesen's been busy." " Targeting our best people?" "He was offered heroin and asked for a sample." "The politicians want us to box his ears." " It may be more complicated." " Don't exaggerate." "She gets full marks for persistence as usual." "Yes, and for the best arse on the force." "Questioning of Detective Inspector Jesper Olesen 19:32, Thursday June 17" "I'm really sorry." "I forgot the time." "I ran into a soccer match." "Look here." "I've recorded the events." "I called your boss and he recommended I should do my own report." "Just check the grammar and I'll sign it." " So I get to catch the match." " Let's take it from the top." "Sit down." "It's June 17 at 19.33." "Present are DI Jesper Olesen and Deputy Detective Commissioner Ingrid Dahl." "I had an offer of 14 kilos and asked for a sample." "I called the unit who arrived and seized the lot." "I know I broke the rules by asking to see it and I'm complicit in a crime, blah, blah..." "But if I hadn't done it we wouldn't have found the shit." " Are we done?" " We'll be done when I say so." "Hey, Monty." " Back home, Torben?" " For now at least." "Come on, Monty." "During the 18 months you've worked as an agent we've made four seizures after your tip-offs." "I'm getting a medal?" "Who's your informant?" " They tell me it's Birko." " So why ask?" " So who's informing him?" " Why are we wasting our time?" "The unit says he's a big dealer so... when he tips you off you're getting rid of his competition." "In my time in the field we've seized more junk than ever." " We don't deal with criminals." " All the time, sweetie!" "It's quid pro quo, and now we know that Birko's the only one left." "Lately you've executed two raids." " Without finding anything!" " Change of luck." "One might suspect that he was tipped off." "Darling, I'm off to watch the football." "Weren't you recently in London with your girlfriend?" " Was it a good trip?" " Yes." "Fucking day and night." "Ever tried it?" "You flew business class and stayed at the Savoy." " So what?" " Here's your bank statement." "With big transfers from her account." " She's a generous girl." " She works in a store." "Her statement... shows big deposits from one of Birko's companies." "She consulted for them." "Bugger-all to do with me." "And you've never talked by phone to Birko?" " For the tape, please." " Yes, that's correct." "Please explain these telephone calls from your mobile to his." "Two dates, both after the unit decided to raid him." "He's your informant and you're his." "Plus which, he paid you for it." " Anything you want to add?" " Yes." "Up yours!" "Monty!" "Come here." "Were you visiting Torben?" "Did you miss him that much?" "UNIT ONE" "The public prosecutor told me." "I felt so small, ignorant that my own staff were investigating" "Episode 1" "I'd appreciate being told." "Beforehand!" " I tried." " Not to my satisfaction." "You were busy with the Haderslev case." "If we can't communicate between ourselves, what then?" "I agree." "And we can talk about it if..." "Ulf Thomsen." "Lysberg?" "What can I do for you?" "What are you saying?" "How?" "I'll come at once." "Ulf?" "What's happening?" "Home of the murder victim 23:10, Thursday June 17" " Hello, Ulf." " Hi." " Question everyone nearby." " It's being done." "Ulf." "They're not finished." "You can't come in." " You know who I am?" " Yes." " You can't come in yet." " Listen, Nielsen..." "Torben was my deputy and a friend for 25 years." "But take off your shoes." " Do we know who he is?" " Not yet." "Ulf, I'd like your help of course." "No need to ask." "You've got it." "Torben's own team will come up here." "What should we make of the other one?" "Meaning?" "I mean, I didn't know Torben as well as you did." "If those cryptic remarks allude to a homosexual motive, you can forget it." "What's wrong?" "Torben was killed at his home this evening." " No." " I must get the others." "We'll go up there at once." " Will you be in charge?" " I don't know." " It would make sense." " Kirsten, honestly..." "I'm sorry." "Darling!" "I'm very sorry." "Crime scene, 02:15, Friday June 18" "We've checked all the houses." "No one saw anything unusual." "Most were watching the match." " What did you ask?" "You are?" " Claus." "You asked if they'd seen anything unusual?" "Where did you train?" "They say what they saw." "We decide if it's unusual." "You know what you do now?" "You go back and ask them again." "I'll do it myself." "Thanks, Claus." "Remember to give me all reports before you leave." "Yes." "Postcard from your dad." "From the beach." " I'm ready." " I just tucked you in." " I can't be bothered sleeping." " You've been up all night." " Why were you up?" " I was marking essays." "I've now earned my holiday." "Anne from my class is also going to Norway."

"Read the paper." "What is it?" "Murdered with friend..." "Office of the chief of police 08:45, Friday June 18" " Who was the other man?" " Henning Ravn." "A doctor." "A bachelor who'd been staying at Torben's." " We don't know why." " And your opinion on that?" "It's absurd." "It reads as if they killed each other out of homosexual jealousy." "If that were the case one would have had to swallow the knife." "Any next of kin?" "What, then?" "Remember Bruno Gravesen?" "A convicted murderer of eight years ago." "Very violent." "Fatally so." "Torben cracked him." "He threatened to kill Torben when he got out." " He got out two weeks ago." " Interesting." "His girlfriend hasn't seen him." "We've got the whole machinery up and running." "Have you thought about Torben's successor?" "The most natural would be IP, his second-in-command." "As a stopgap till we find a younger man." "There's another possibility." " Your Special Cases chief." " Ingrid Dahl?" "Smoke?" "Thanks." "The public prosecutor praised her investigation of Olesen." " She's absolutely capable." " And you trained her." "But as chief of Homicide?" "No woman has ever had that job." "Don't misunderstand me, but..." "She'd be away from home a lot and she has small children." " He's eleven!" " If he gets the measles..." " Would we close shop?" " And she has a husband." "This is not the time for experiments." "She's worked in Homicide before and got top marks all round." "With all respect for macho habitual thinking" "I find it difficult to see how you can overlook her." "Right?" "It can't be true!" "People just don't disappear." "After all, this is Denmark." "Lean harder on the girlfriend." "I'm sure she knows where he is." "Fine." "Call me." "Okay." "Haven't you found Bruno yet?" "A pair of lovely boys, eh?" "The FBI Course in 1995." "Torben was the best." "I feared they'd keep him." "I'll spare you my sentimental chatter." " Who is she?" " That's Signe." " Torben's daughter." " I didn't know about her." "She moved to England." "Gaby's looking for her." "Well..." "I've come to a decision." "Would you consider leading the investigation?" "Acting chief of Homicide as of today." " Am I not making myself clear?" " Yes, absolutely." " What about IP?" " Meaning?" " Has he been told?" " Of course." " Is he in agreement?" " I didn't ask him." "I bypassed 300 men when I became commissioner." "I wasn't very popular." "You'll have to earn that first." "It's taxing." "Taxing on one's family life, on... holidays, public holidays, evenings..." "Better be prepared for that or say no." "Should I?" " What?" " I suspect that... you're trying to frighten me off." "That's precisely what I can't abide about you." " I'm sorry." " I'm being realistic." "I know the realities." " And I accept." " Fine." "You're expected in Hillerød." "And..." "How I vote on your final appointment depends totally on how you manage this." " Fair enough." " And I'll be properly informed?" " Yes, of course." " Fine." "That's all." "Go and find him for me." "Hi, Søren." "I want to tell you something." "I've been put in charge of the investigation." "It could cause us problems with the holiday." "We'll talk when I get home." "Bye, darling." "Hillerod Police Station 11:15, June 18" "Where do I find Unit One?" " What's it about?" " Down in the basement." "The basement?" " Are you lost?" " Hi, Fischer." " Yes." "What now?" " Here's the report." "We need three copies." "Can you find the time?" "Shall I show you to our luxurious rooms?" "But she's lied to us once." "What's Bruno doing in Jutland?" "This is it." " Impressive?" " Hi, Gaby." "He got the computers going in two hours." " Not like the shop in Haderslev." " That was Torben's style." " Hi, IP." " Hi, Ingrid." "Welcome." "Thanks." "Shall we start?" " We started last night." " Yes, of course." "Where are we with Bruno?" "His girlfriend has admitted he came to see her." " After he got out." " A fortnight ago?" "She doesn't know why he went to Jutland." "She got scared when she knew why we were looking for him." "That could be all she knows." " You think he's our man?" " Yes." "The best bet." "Motive - revenge." "Any other possibilities?" "Male prostitute?" " Is that a joke?" " It's a possibility." " Just drop it." " Two men living together..." " Stabbed." "One in his bed." " Torben..." "Yes." "Did you know him well?" "Did he say he had a friend staying?" "A divorcee, like Torben, whose house was being done up." "Know what he said in every new town?" " No." " He said..." ""New town, new pussy."" "But did you ever see him do anything about it?" "So take some men from the local squad and check every gay bar from here to Copenhagen." " Seriously?" " I want to know if Torben and Henning Ravn were known there." "Ingrid's right." "Of course it has to be checked." "I'm off to see LaCour." " You've worked with her before?" " Yes." "And now she's almost commissioner..." "Fast mover..." "What about moving a bit fast yourself?" "Crime Scene 14:35, Friday June 18" " Hi, LaCour." " Hello." "Got any ideas?" "None." "I've been over it again and again but I can't find any logic to all this." "You've been here all night?" "Forensics says Torben and Ravn sat here, watching TV." "Henning Ravn goes to bed." "Torben answers the door and brings the killer in here." "He's stabbed there at first." "He flees in here where he is stabbed twice." "Henning Ravn wakes up and comes in." "Thinking Torben was alone, the killer panics." "He stabs Henning who runs into the bedroom where the killer finishes him off." "But... would Torben have invited Bruno in here?" "Who had threatened his life?" "And be taken by surprise?" "Torben was very fit." "Tell me about him." "He was..." "He was one of the best cops I've ever known." "But he never invited me into his home." "Ingrid." "Yes." "Let me have it in writing very soon." "Thanks." "Forensics says both men had alcohol in their blood." "Torben and Ulf were drinking champagne." " How much did he drink?" " Enough to take a taxi." "He might have been a bit drunk, and tired after Haderslev." " Reason enough for sloppiness?" " Perhaps." "Torben was fixated that details were the key to the exact moment of the crime." " Follow that sequence..." " LaCour, you're exhausted." "Do me a favour." "Go home and sleep." "Oh, yes." "We found this." "It's Torben's." "His daughter's address is there." "She may have moved to Ireland." "The number's crossed out." "See what you can do." " That was Aalborg..." " Bruno?" "He used his mobile." "Two different signals." "A week ago..." "We'll check his acquaintances." "We have a confession." "He's upstairs." "The policeman called me." "When I arrived I saw there were two of them." "That was all right." "I told them it would cost a bit more." "They said it was okay." "I sucked one guy's dick while the other buggered me." "Afterwards they refused to pay and they threatened me." "And then?" "I..." "I shot them." "Victor..." "Why did you turn yourself in?" " They told me to." " Who did?" "The voices." "If you confessed, you'd be forgiven?" "Yes." "Fine, Victor." "You're forgiven." "Go home." "Thanks." "You're Ingrid?" "Chief Constable Hans Lysberg." "Welcome." "Please tell us if we can help with anything." "If you could keep the worst nutters at bay..." "We located some of Bruno's friends in Aalborg but they weren't home." "We're still watching them." "I've found Torben's daughter." "Will you, or shall I?" "Hello, is this Signe Rønne?" "You're talking to Ingrid Dahl from Unit One." "I'm a colleague of your dad's." "I've got some very sad news." "Hello?" "What's up?" "The phones are playing up." "Have them fixed!" "I'm in the middle of..." "Signe?" "Our phones are out of order." "Yes." "He's dead." "Last night." "Signe?" "Is someone with you?" "It's Torben's daughter." " Get any tempting offers?" " Of course." "A shame I was so damned tired." " How are things?" " Like shit." "Bruno?" "How did she take it?" " What did you find out?" " A waste of time." "No one in the gay bars knows Torben or Henning." "Henning was Signe's godfather, and straight." "She told me he was a real womaniser." "We're wasting time." "Nothing's happening." "What else?" " Ingrid?" "Any suggestions?" " Yes, get some sleep." " Like hell I will." " Good night, Fischer." " Let me just..." " We need you fresh tomorrow." " Yes, okay." "Good night." " Good night." "Drinks?" " Coffee, please." " IP?" " May I say something?" " Yes." "Fischer should have stayed." " But he was dog-tired." " He should have stayed." "None of us can sleep anyway." "Interpol's found Bruno." "In a prison in Rotterdam..." "He's not our man." "He's been there for a week." "Let's call it a day." " Thanks for today." " You're welcome." "IP..." "Thanks for your cooperation." " I know you had counted on..." " It's ten years too late." "You've always wanted the job, right?" " How did you know?" " I've kept an eye on you." " Would Torben have nailed this?" " It's only been 24 hours." "His last case took three weeks." "You're doing well." " Thanks for your support." " See you." "A toast to Denmark's first female chief of Homicide." "Only if I solve this case." "And that doesn't look like it." " Old Ulf is sweet on you." " It has nothing to do with him." "I'm sure the chief of police had some influence." "So you're happy with things?" "I want the job for my merits, not my sex." "I chose you because of your sex." "Is this about getting Dad's approval?" "Don't analyse me." "What about the holiday?" " It's off." "I've told Tobias." " What did he say?" " What do you think?" " It's okay, Mum." "You can't go away while a cop killer's free." "Come here." "I'm on the computer..." " Congratulations." " Thanks." " I was lucky with him." " May I say something here?" "What?" "You're very good at your work." "But?" "You're no good at reading your son's signals." " He was very upset about it." " He wasn't." "He has to be the big, grown-up son for his mum, right?" " Now you're upsetting me." " I don't mean to." " We were alone for a long time." " It's not that bad." " Should I back out at work?" " No, no." "Shouldn't I go on holiday with him?" "Yes." " I could take my daughter too." " Good idea." " You're so sweet." " No, I'm an egoist." "My hiking boots need to scale a mountain." "And that's okay with you?" " Taking what they dish out?" " You're probably right." "You won't even argue." "Should I have told Ulf "I want that job"?" "What an interesting change." " And resigned if he'd said no?" " Yes." "That's what they deserve." "What would we live off?" "Your bit roles at the theatre?" "A divorce?" " And you let a youngster..." " She's good." " You'd like a female boss." " I'm used to it from home." "...petrol station at 21.39..." " Good morning." " Morning." "What if we were wrong from the start?" "What if this is not about Torben but about Henning Ravn?" "Here's Torben's lounge room and the bedroom." "Torben was found here and Henning here." "We've assumed that Torben was killed before Henning." "What if Henning was killed before Torben and Henning was the target?" "Torben came home and was taken by surprise and stabbed." " Interesting, but impossible." " Why?" "Forensics has Torben drinking beer in the lounge." "I thought so, till I saw this." "Torben went to a petrol station to buy cigarettes at half-time." "He wasn't in the house for some 20 minutes." "Maybe Henning had a visitor." "Guess what genius wrote a report without telling us." "Relax." "No more killings!" " The motive?" " Don't know." " Henning's details?" " Single doctor, lots of women." "And Torben's daughter said Henning had a longer-term affair." " A local." " Ida Friis." "Ida Friis?" "I'll locate her." "Ingrid." "Hi, Lysberg." "We've arrested someone on another charge." "He has something of interest." "He'll only talk to the chief." "I know..." "But you should hear him out." " I wanted the chief." " That's me." "What have you got?" "Not with him present." " I know about the murders." " I'm listening." "Yes..." "But it will cost you." "I had some priors before they nabbed me." " Prisons piss me off." " That's the whole idea." "A cop with a sense of humour!" "I know who did it, why he did it and how he did it." "If so, you're obliged to tell us." " I know nothing." " We're in Denmark, not the US." "We don't do deals with criminals regarding reduced sentences." "Where were the corpses?" "One in the bedroom and the cop in the lounge." "I'll call you later." "Ida Friis committed suicide a fortnight ago." "I'm looking for her son." "The chief of police wants to see you!" " Did he have anything?" " He knows the murderer." "He knows who killed Torben?" " He wants a reduced sentence." " Out of the question." "We'll just have to talk to his family, friends..." " That could take weeks." " What, then?" "Cut a deal?" "I totally agree with Ingrid Dahl." "Yes, but we're talking about a police murder." "Helge, stop being so pedantic." "Think creatively for once." "Yes!" "Thank you." " The chief prosecutor..." " Not keen?" "He owes me some favours..." "Well..." "Have you settled in well?" "In the basement with faulty phones." "Have you heard my bright idea?" "I tried to sell it to Ulf once." " A mobile office." " Mobile office?" " May I?" " Please." "I would have told you that Torben left the house." "But... it slipped my mind." " I'm sorry." " This may cheer you up, then." "Henning Ravn's stuff." "Thanks." "He was storing his things here during the renovations." "We want to find his personal papers which are in here somewhere." "So... get going, eh?" "Have fun." "No need to cart equipment back and forth, you just take it along." "Yes?" "What's your decision?" "No, no." "I understand." "You can't bypass him." "Yes." "Thank you." "He'll okay it when the local prosecutor's sworn in." " He'll get him to call you." " Fine." "Want to grab some lunch with some female executives who meet occasionally?" "That's not me." "I just want to be a good cop." "We're holding a man who knows Torben's murderer?" "Allow me to have a little chat with him." "Stay here!" "Maybe you don't give a shit, but the rest of us do." " Don't touch him." " You know what he needs?" "Cool it!" " I don't believe this." " Ingrid Dahl here." "Great news." "Could you fax it to me?" "Thank you." "When charged, all you'll get is a suspended sentence." "No!" "It stays here." "What's said here stays between us." " Give me a name." " Dennis." " Dennis Friis." " Dennis Friis?" "Did his mum live with Henning Ravn?" "That's what this is all about." "After a gap of many years, Dennis ran into Henning." "He told him his mother had kicked the bucket." "And?" "Henning rubbished his mum and Dennis flipped out." "That same evening he went out there and..." " How do you know?" " We both work at the gym." "After the match I found Dennis spewing in the loo." "He spilled his guts to me, saying he'd killed two guys." "Dennis Friis?" "A word, please?" "About Henning?" "I read about it in the papers." "He stayed with you and your mum?" "It didn't work out." " Mum wasn't easy." " And him?" "He was okay." "I haven't seen him for years." "I'm sad he died." "For years?" "You live locally and didn't run into each other?" "No." " What are you doing?" " Trying to lift 300 kilos." " I work relief here." " And two days ago?" "Yes." "We were all watching the match." "You were?" "Don't waste our time." "At least ten people confirm Dennis was watching TV." " He left in the middle." " And no one saw him?" "I did." "I saw him from the bar." "I saw something was up." "When he got back he'd changed gear." " Is he lying to get off?" " I don't think so." "You saw the centre." "Could he have left unnoticed from the back?" " In theory." "Yes." " That's enough." " He has the motive." " Revenge?" "On the word of a criminal!" "Find the knife." "He changed at home." "Shall we pay him a visit?" " We won't get a warrant." " We could call when he's out." "Fine." "Let's get it over and done with." "Why not?" "Now we've started." "Look." "All these are from his mother's funeral." " Don't they go on the grave?" " Yes, but he's kept them." "Yes..." " Shall we start?" " Yes." "The chief of police tells me you went behind my back." " I thought you'd agree." " That's not the point." "The fact is, I wasn't told." " You also rehashed old stuff." " What?" "The mobile office." "All applications go through me, right?" "It just popped up." "I didn't apply for it." "That's how it was taken." " Yes?" " No murder weapon at Dennis's." "Hi, Ulf." "Wait..." " What search?" " Hardly a search..." " Without a search warrant?" " We had no choice." "Ingrid, I didn't hear this." "Forensics can identify the knife from metal traces they've found." "Ulf." "Now you can do this investigation a big favour." "How?" "Hillerød police may have found the murder weapon." "Ulf Thomsen is here with me." "Do you view this discovery as a definite breakthrough?" "No, it's too early to say." "We'll have to wait for Forensics." " They can work wonders." " Great, Ulf." "If Dennis doesn't go for the knife, he's not our man." "Surveillance of suspect 20:08, Saturday June 19" "Nothing's happening." " What if it isn't him?" " You saw the flowers." "Yes." "So he loves his mother, that doesn't make him a killer." "What if it isn't him?" "Ingrid's brilliant plan fails." " Your optimism is contagious." " I'm a realist." "We could be sitting here waiting while the real killer is dissolving the knife in acid." " That's funny." " Thanks." " Too late?" " I think they've left." "Then I've got the whole house to myself." "Oh, well..." ""Die Flle fhrt zur Klarheit." ""Lm Abgrund wohnt die Warheit."" "What's that?" "One of Torben's favourite quotes." "Schiller..." "I never understood it." "Only fullness leads to clarity." "The truth dwells in the abyss." "I get that, but what does it mean?" "First you look at the big picture, then you look into the human abyss." "Know what I'm looking at?" "A man in a bed-sitter jerking off." " It's been two hours." " He'll move." " Are you still seeing..." " Rasmus?" "Yes." "I can't handle cops." "That's all we meet." "And crooks." "The way we behave, we're one and the same." " What's that?" " Henning's personal papers." "That's what you wanted, eh?" "Tax returns, letters, insurance, receipts and all that." " Great." " He's on the move." " Is he going to training?" " At this hour?" "Fischer..." "You've been here before." "What's that?" "The toilet, I think." "Hell!" "He puked in the loo." "Oh, it's you!" "I thought it was a break-in." " Give me your hand." " I told you, I work here." " I'm cleaning." "At night." " The other hand!" "Dennis Friis..." "It's 23.31." "You're under arrest." "Hey, Fischer." "Interrogation of suspect 01 L35, Sunday June 20" "You don't have to talk for our benefit." "We've got your knife." "Forensics will find something." "You left oodles of tracks in your flat." "Your clothes, your shoes, a hair you lost..." "Do you want a cola?" "Yes." "I'll get it." "Dennis, you've just lost your mother." "Was it hard for you?" "We saw all the flowers from her funeral in your flat." "You ran into Henning in the street two days ago." "Was he happy to see you?" "You were very fond of Henning, weren't you?" "We found some letters you wrote to him." ""Dear Dad..." Is that what you called him?" "Or was that what he wanted?" ""When will you visit us?" "I miss you and so does Mum."" "You were 15 when you wrote that." "Here's another one." ""Dear Dad, I've bought two tickets to the soccer match." ""One is for you."" "Did he turn up?" "Or did you sit next to an empty seat during the match?" "When you met him, did you tell him your mother was dead?" "Was he sad?" "Or just indifferent?" " I can see why you got angry." " He said Mum..." "That my mum was a good screw, but crazy." "And that I hadn't looked after her." "He said I had let her down." "He let her down." "She'd been sick since he left her." "That was why she took those pills." "You wanted to tell him so you went there that night?" "Yes." "I just wanted to scare him." "But suddenly I'd stabbed him." "What then?" "I looked for something to stop the bleeding." "I wanted to help him." "But when I got back... he was hiding in the bedroom." "He was calling the police." "I stabbed him again." "Then the other one came home." "I didn't mean to." "He had nothing to do with it." " She's good." " Yes." "Torben wanted to get closer to the moment of the crime." "And the last thing he did was to step right into it." "Yes..." "Well..." " There's still time." " For what?" "Your family in Norway." "I have to write up the case." " I'll do that." " No way." "I worked with a chief for eight years who ruined his marriage because of the job." "I don't want a repeat of that."

"We got a lot of applications from the best people." "And when it came to the final decision, you were in the top three." "I suggested you as most suitable..." "But someone was better." "Maybe so, but... you got the job." " Congratulations, Ingrid." " Thanks." " Congratulations." " Thanks." "Ingrid, it was a risk appointing you, the first female chief of Homicide." "You're well known abroad as an internal investigator." "It's not going to be easy." "I suggest you be humble in the job." "And cooperate." "I'll present you to the chief." "She wants to congratulate you." " Okay." " Well..." "Talking of luck..." "In return, I managed to get us a rise in our bonus." " A good rise." "For everyone." " Okay." "Ulf, what do you mean by "in return"?" "I had several meetings with the chief of police." "So she upped the budget in return for me being chief of Homicide." " Not in so many words." " Really?" "Absolutely not." "Good, then." "Why is she always so stubborn?" "Local Pub, Horsens 21:11, Friday November 12" "We're still waiting." "What's going on?" "Remove the empties." "Jesus Christ!" "Hello?" "Hi." "Hang on." " Dad..." " Yes, my dear." "Phone." "Johnny here." "Why in the woods?" "Okay." "See you." "Have to go." "Can't it wait?" "Shut up!" " Dad..." " Yes." " Can I have another cola?" " No more." "Sure, my dear." " You've been drinking." " Just shut up." "Boller State Forest, Horsens 00:37, Saturday November 13" "UNIT ONE" "EPISODE 2" " Yes?" " It's Ulf." "Hang on." "Ingrid." "A homicide... in Horsens." "They need our assistance." "Okay." "I'll brief you later today." " Tell me now." " Why?" "I want to leave before the local chief messes it all up." "I didn't hear that." "Andersen sends his regards." "He looks forward to your cooperation." "Understood?" " Where are Fischer and LaCour?" " Is Mum leaving?" " That's right." " Great." "Let's go, then." " We can't." " She won't let us?" "Yes." "Yes." "Yes." "See you." "He doesn't like me, Søren." " That's why you got the job." " But he wants me to fail." " You won't." " Won't I?" "Hey." "When it really counts, no one's better than you." "Silly you!" "Does Tobias know I'm leaving?" "And he's upset?" " Want me to call his dad?" " I suggested fishing." " No way." " Come on..." "It's too cold to go fishing." " Please answer it..." " It's for you." " IP." " Hi!" "We're off to Horsens." "An assassination." " Five shots from a 12-gauge." " Reloaded three times!" "The forensic team's there." "Ulf said the locals have a theory..." "Hold on." "Okay." "Go fishing, then." "You guys!" "Sorry." "I'll leave soon." "Bye." "Why don't you come too?" "We could stay at a hotel." "And what am I going to do while you work till midnight?" " What about clean shirts?" " I'll buy some there." " And the mobile office, Gaby." " Sure." "It needs a clean." "It's in a state." " The new driver?" " I have his number." " Excellent." " Okay." "See you." "It's Gaby from Unit One." "Could you..." "I have to leave now." "Hey..." "Want to meet up again?" "See you." "He was sweet... and lovely." " So many are." " It's not serious, then?" "Does Søren get jealous when you go?" " No." " What if you did something?" " Never." " But if you did..." "What would he do if you went with someone?" "He'd consider it my problem and ask me to leave." "Exactly." "He'd ask you to leave pronto." "That's what women like to hear..." " Hey..." " Awake?" " Can't sleep for your chatter." " Grouch." "Well, some idiot just ruined my weekend." "Horsens Police Station 11:05, Saturday November 13" "This is bar owner John Poulsen." "Well known to the police, with a long criminal record." "The shot to the heart was probably fatal." "But he was repeatedly shot..." "from close range." " Any theories?" " Yes." "John Poulsen owned a local pub where you can buy most things including speed, in competition with a biker gang." "And the gang leader," "Grue, he threatened Poulsen a few times." " But..." " It's not business." "It's emotional." "It's too violent." "Jealousy, revenge, hate." "But it's not business." "It's too messy." "This killing isn't professional, it's personal." "Let's focus on the Poulsen family." "Hi." " Hi, Lund." " Well, case almost solved?" "The bikers?" "Not our main lead." "Let's get going." " Mind if I start?" " Okay." " Fischer and LaCour?" " On the way." "Just one more day..." " We didn't get that." " No, unfortunately we didn't." "We would have nailed him." "Just half a day more..." " Should I ask Ingrid?" " Why?" "So you can get back on the case." "No way, I'm not going back now." "Maybe you want to go back?" "Why?" "The redhead." " Who?" " You know who." " Oh, her..." " When did you last get laid?" " Shut up." " Before or after 1980?" "We receive the report at 23.18." "That's the closest time we've got." "Four minutes later, the first police car arrives." "When the ambulance gets there they look at him and say "Get a hearse instead."" "Soon after, Mr Lundgaard is kind enough to disturb me at the mayor's party..." "Excuse me, but it's already in the report." "True." "But the forensic team deserves credit." "Well done." "Morning." "LaCour's responsibility is the crime scene and forensics." "Fischer deals with the victim and family." " IP..." " The rest." "The reports, all of them, are handed to Gaby." "Why not arrest Grue?" " On what grounds?" " He threatened the deceased." "There are other possibilities." "Next meeting at 8 a.m." "It's Sunday today..." "I know." " Why are you so certain?" " I just am." "He'd have handed you the case if you'd waited." "No time." "Andersen used to be a good cop." "But now he's old." " Dinner at the mayor's!" " Learn this." "You don't advance by trampling on other people." "Okay." "Apologise on my behalf and say I'm an ambitious bitch." "Come on, IP..." "Isn't it all about three things?" "Cooperation, cooperation, cooperation." " You're right." " Of course." "You are an ambitious bitch!" "Right on time." " Isn't that Johnny Olsen?" " Apparently." "Look, it's the real Johnny Olsen." "You're right." "Is this your first trip?" "Yes, got the truck last week." " So now you're a truck driver?" " That's right." " Hi." " Allow me." "Thanks." " You left the message?" " Yes." "I'm impressed." "It's really clean." "It needed it." "Sorry for the delay." "I'll call for you to pick it up later." "Plenty of time." " I didn't introduce myself." " No need." "Okay." "I have to say, this mobile office really surprises me." " Why not introduce him?" " Come on..." "It's Johnny Olsen." "It can't be all work." "IP..." "Ever been jealous?" " Still grumpy!" " I'm not." "Søren and I went to a party once and he started dancing with a woman from work..." "I could have killed her." "Exactly." "You do crazy things when you get like that." "Look." "An old, alcoholic pub owner." "Married to a lovely lady." "A guy moves into the basement." "A real hunk." " No." " She might think so." "Three months later she becomes pregnant." "Okay." "Then he's jailed for violence..." "Once released, he moves back and works as a bodyguard for the deceased." "A young man lives with a young woman... married to an old drunk." "Maybe they wanted to get rid of the bastard?" " See what I mean?" " Yes." " And the bikers?" " They'll have to wait." "LaCour is at the crime scene." "I'll interview the bodyguard and the "grieving" widow." "It's going to be tough." "And it takes time." "We need to talk to Kim too." "Is he here?" "Check out the basement." "That's where he lives." "You worked at the pub last night." " And someone phoned John?" " I don't know who called." "How old is your daughter Camilla?" " Nine." " Was she there too?" " I'd like to talk to Camilla." " Why?" "She might know who called." "She's at my dad's." "I don't want her to see me like this." "Kim, you went to Ärhus last night." "He was killed because they knew you were out of town." "I guess so." " So who are they?" " I've no idea." "You protect him." "He's killed on your first day off." "He was afraid of someone." "Who was it?" "Are you afraid too?" "I'm not afraid of anything." "Okay." " Did you hurt yourself?" " It's nothing..." "Nikolaj hit me when I tried to put on his shoes." " How old is he?" " One." "How were things between you and John?" "Good." "You're not telling me the truth about the scratch." "John hit you, right?" "But..." "I forgot to pay the GST." "We had to pay a big fine." "He was okay." "He looked after me." "What's going to happen now?" "This is soundproof." " Been living here long?" " Three months." " Plus a few years ago too." " Before going to jail..." " What did you do in Ärhus?" " I met a friend." " Name?" " Jeppe." "It was his birthday." "Any other witnesses in Ärhus?" "His mum and stepfather." "They held the party." "We got pissed." "Jeppe got into a fight with his stepfather..." "Always happens." "The cops came." "But I'd passed out by then." "Nothing came of it." "No reports, I believe." "I'll bet." "Kim..." "Do you "look after" her sometimes?" "She's a hot woman." "Are you saying, the day after he was killed," "I'm fucking my best mate's wife?" "It wasn't my intention." "I don't care about their personal problems." "Could be him." "I'd say they're in a relationship." "Maybe." "But she seems to be really grieving." " Having second thoughts?" " No." "Maybe she's just pretending to mourn." "I get out..." "Crime Scene 14:33, Saturday 13 November" "I move away from the car..." "Does he always talk to himself?" "No..." "Then I can't get to this point." "I move..." "I move... to this spot!" "No, I would have been hit." "Instead I move to this spot." "Poulsen gets out and leaves the door open." "Then he moves... to that spot." "And then the shots." "I want to get away, but I move to that spot first." "Otherwise I can't get to that spot." "I see he's dead." "And then I run." "Trainers." "Gumboots." "Size 11 - 12." "Trainers." "Gumboots." "Trainers." "It's LaCour..." "Please bring some tape." "You saw Kim last night." "Where?" " In Sønderbrogade." " What time?" " About 10, 10.30 p.m." " Okay." "I'd just dropped off a passenger and then I saw Kim." "He looked as if he needed a taxi." "I hoped he wouldn't pick me." "I didn't want to drive a psycho." "You don't like Kim?" "As bodyguards, Kim and Jeppe believe they own the whole city." "What kind of shoes was he wearing?" "Trainers?" "I think so." " IP." " Yes?" "Ärhus called." "The police visited Jeppe's mum last night." "Both Kim and Jeppe were there at the time of the killing." "Damn." "Ingrid is not going to be happy." "Waste of time." "You don't like Kim." "So you want to get him in trouble." " It was Kim." " Impossible." "The police saw him... in Ärhus!" "Located 50 kilometres from here." "He couldn't drive to Horsens in five minutes." " Yesterday?" " Or the day before." "It looks like a conspiracy." "Two people." ""Trainers" is the person that Poulsen picks up." ""Trainers" leaves the car first." "He knows that "Gumboots" is hiding in the forest." ""Gumboots" shoots Poulsen." "Then they both run to this spot, where a boat is waiting for them." "Excellent." "The mobile office." " Ingrid's idea?" " Yes." "Not bad." "Got a few things that might be of interest to you guys." "Apparently Grue was set to collect a gambling debt... 300,000 that Poulsen didn't want to pay." "Grue is known to be a violent loan shark." "Grue and his gang are located... here." "The crime scene is here." "Nobody saw a car leaving the crime scene." "It's possible they had a boat waiting here, motored to this spot, and had a car waiting here." "Last night witnesses saw an old blue Opel Record leaving at great speed in the direction of Nebel." "Apparently Grue owns a similar blue car." "Interesting." "Though the lady might not like this..." "I still believe you need to put Grue's photo up here." " Am I interrupting?" " No." "I got the local newspaper." "It's on the front page." "Thanks." "I guess... the guy who was killed owned this pub?" " Anything else?" " Sorry, no." "Wasn't that..." "Sure." "These are the shell cases." "Off to Ballistics." " Okay." " And..." "A gift from the forensic team." ""Trainers" may have left blood traces in the car." " We'll get the DNA profile?" " Sure." " Hi, IP." " Bad news." "Kim has an alibi." "Plus, Andersen's got some new leads." "Poulsen was stupid enough to owe Grue 300,000 kroner." "And Grue has a blue car, like the one witnesses saw." " Maybe they used a boat." " True." "LaCour found tracks." " Should have got him sooner." " Get Fischer to do it." " Get some local backup too." " Okay." "Hey." "I want Grue." "If you could deliver the invitation." "Kim's got a good alibi." "Really?" "Andersen believes Grue had a strong motive." "A 300,000 kroner gambling debt." "It's strange." "I've never been so sure before... that it's personal." "The new truck driver..." " Isn't it Johnny Olsen?" " Right." "Who is Johnny Olsen?" " Johnny Olsen?" " Yes." "Biker clubhouse, Nebel 15:33, Saturday November 13" "Grue, it's the police." "Come on out!" "Okay, break down the gate." "Gaby." " Did you look at the report?" " Yes." ""Car dealer Nielsen drives home his son's girlfriend..."" "Why drive through the forest at that hour?" " You're right." " Check out the database." "You should have seized him this morning, but she refused." "Women in the police force are fine, but not as chiefs." "You're an old fogy, Lundgaard." "Really?" "It's a female conspiracy." "First a chief of police, then a chief of Homicide." "Appointed by a female!" "How long will she last?" "Six months?" "Thanks." "Grue's escaped." "We'd better start a search." "Any other ideas?" "Make a decision!" "Are we going after Grue..." "I don't have enough." "I still need to match the murder weapon." "Plus interview the daughter." "LaCour could talk to her." "Okay." "Ingrid, we have some info on the car dealer." "Take a look." "Interesting." "He might not be a "decent" family man after all." "Bloody hell!" "This one's mine." "What about Grue?" "You search for him." "Interview of first witness 15:49, Saturday November 13" "I tried to talk to your son's girl." "She's still in shock." "Obviously." "Why make a detour via the forest?" "We were just chatting away, and suddenly I realised we were driving towards the beach." "Hardly a detour." "Why the need to pee so soon after leaving?" "My thoughts, exactly." "Women!" "Sorry." " So she was squatting there..." " She went behind a tree." "Excuse me, it's in the report." "Why don't you read it again?" "What happened to your lips?" "Young girls..." "They found me not guilty." "Not guilty!" "Wonderful luck." " 1975." " I was only 19." " Dad, it's almost sold." " Good work." "Why didn't you drive her home?" "We decided he'd had too much to drink, so..." "You decided." "Maybe." "Your customers are waiting." "I guess the interview's over." "Listen carefully, you have two choices." "We talk now or I'll have a chat to your son." "Either way, I want to know what happened in the car." "We found a boat at the fjord." " Might be the one they used." " Good." "The time of murder's been moved back 40 minutes." "Ingrid suspected the car dealer wasn't telling the truth." "He stopped and tried to get into the girl's pants." "The old pig." "She hears the shooting and runs away in panic." "He wastes time ensuring she won't tell the son." "Then he realises someone's been shot." " Then he dials 000." " Okay." "The time of murder has moved to 22.35." "Check if Kim could have made it from Ärhus." "Cool, she'll never quit." "I'm on my way." " Talk to Jeppe too." " Will do." "We're leaving now." "We're going to Ärhus." "Fast!" "Start timing." "The time of murder has been moved by 40 minutes." "The car dealer jumped the girl." "They heard the shots, he panicked and wanted her to lie..." "Damn!" "Find my blue flashing light." "Hi." "I'm on my way to Ärhus to check on Kim's timing but I have a local cop following us." "We're at... fuck!" "Turn it on!" "Just add ten seconds and we should be fine." "Smoke?" "Interview of daughter 16:30, Saturday November 13" "Hi." " Is it yours?" " Yes." "It's very cute." " What's its name?" " Bear." " Who gave it to you?" " My grandfather." "Let's talk about your dad." "He's dead." "Right." "You were at the pub last night?" "Someone called your dad." "Who picked up the phone?" "I did." "Was it a man or a woman?" "A man." "Did you recognise the voice?" "Try to remember." " Who are you?" " Hello." "LaCour." "Unit One." "You should have asked me first." " Nobody answered." " I was asleep." "I need to talk to you too." "Where were you last night?" "Here." "Watching TV." " Any witnesses?" " No." "How was your relationship with your son-in-law?" "He was much older than her." "Jeanette always managed to meet the wrong men." " What do you shoot them with?" " What?" "The ducks." " I've got a licence." " Okay." "Could I have a look at the gun?" "Okay." "Could I also borrow your gumboots?" "I brought Danish pastry." "Thanks." " I've good news and bad news." " Good news first." "Kim could have made the drive." "Then I still think Kim is "Trainers"." "And I'm guessing his old mate Jeppe fits "Gumboots"." "The bad news." "They can't find Jeppe, but they've found his folks." " Okay." " Now the really bad news." "This is yesterday's pastry." "Interview regarding Kin's Alibi, Arhus 16:45, Saturday November 13" "And then Kim and Jeppe arrived at 6 o'clock for dinner." "We should have started at 6, but it became... thanks." "Later." "It was 7." "You were pissed again." "You made me nervous." "I'm always nervous when Jeppe visits." "They always get into a fight." " They stayed all night?" " Yes." "Well, they borrowed our car." " My car." " His." "They wanted to get some more booze." "10 o'clock, I think." " How long were they gone?" " 15 to 30 minutes." " Are you sure?" " I'm sure..." " You're sure it wasn't longer?" " Yes." " Did you doze off?" " She didn't sleep." " She was just drinking." " I was nervous." " It was my fault?" " No." "He started it." "He wanted to fight." "And then when they returned..." "They got into a fight and then the cops came." "At 23.20?" "Yes." "Just wondering..." "Is your car an Opel Record?" " Blue?" " How did you know?" "We'd like to talk to Jeppe." "Where is he now?" "Gran Canaria in Spain." "They came for dinner, before driving to the airport." "Thanks, Fischer." "See you." "Jeppe is in Gran Canaria." "Check his travel agency." "And when he got a return ticket." "Another thing." "They didn't stay all night." "They went for a drive in Jeppe's stepdad's car." " Okay." " A blue Record!" "What?" "Grue drives a blue Record." "Kim and Jeppe borrowed one." "That's funny." "The score is one all!" " A beer, please." " Sure." " Johnny Olsen, right?" " Right." "It's on me." "Johnny Olsen, Danish international!" "Just after the Championship Cup." " How many games?" " 37." "And then..." "I remember, bad injury." "Not too good, right?" "A lot of things happened here!" "It's big news." "The owner was killed last night." "These guys..." "The "grieving" widow and Kim, the bodyguard." "They've had fun for years." "Fischer?" ""Call Signe." Any idea who wrote this?" " The redhead." " You gave her my number?" "She asked."

" IP." " Don't know." " Gaby?" " Kim and a mate." "I agree." "And the mate is Jeppe." " Ditto." " Details?" "Kim and Jeanette are lovers." "Poulsen wasn't nice to her." "They could easily have made the drive." "His mum was too pissed to remember." "I agree, Poulsen wasn't nice." "He wouldn't go to the woods with a stranger." "Let's get Kim." "Arrest him?" "Charge him?" " Yes!" " That's too early." " We need more proof." " I want his blood sample." " What about Andersen's theory?" " I don't care." "Fine, but isn't it a bit risky making an arrest on the first day?" "It's not." "You could have been huge, like Elkj'r." "You'd have been rich then." " One more?" " Sure." "The time is 19.07." "You're under arrest." "Jeanette, did you kiss him goodbye?" "You won't see him for years." "Where are you going?" "Interrogation of Kim Boager Hansen." "Charged with killing John Poulsen." "The time is 21.30 on 13 November 1999." "Present, Chief of Homicide Ingrid Dahl." "You tried to escape." " Why?" " I'm always chief suspect." "It isn't you, then?" "No." "Did you get the scratch stealing the weapon?" "No, I got it from..." "Some guys at the pub got pissed." " Where were you Friday?" " I've told you." " At Jeppe's mum's." " All night?" "Yes." "She says you borrowed their car." "True." "It was Jeppe's birthday and we went to buy more booze." " How long were you gone?" " 15 minutes." "I don't think you went for booze." "I think you went to Horsens." "You took Poulsen to the forest and Jeppe was waiting for him." "I don't care what you think." "You're too busy guessing." "Don't guess." "Get the guy who killed my best mate." "Was Poulsen your best mate?" "Is that why you stayed there?" "He wanted me to scare people." "I'm very good at that!" "You met Jeppe at the children's home?" "Apparently you saved his life." "No." "Guys tried throwing him out the window." "I was angry." "I guess your best mate is Jeppe, then." "Was John a good dad?" " None of my business." " Why didn't he want the boy?" " It's not my business." " But why?" "Isn't he a sweet kid?" "How did you feel when John was beating her?" "I have my rights." "I don't have to say any more." "The time is 21.41." "Interrogation terminated." "Kim, one more thing." " We need a blood sample." " What for?" "That's for you to work out." "Good night." " I miss you." " I miss you too." "Sorry about this weekend." " How is Tobias?" " Asleep, we leave early." "And the forecast is fine." "Hey..." "What's going on?" "Gry is checking out a dress of yours." " Which one?" " The pink one." " Your daughter is in love." " What's his name?" "Dad!" "Gaby's here." " I love you." " I love you too." "And you've been together for six years?" "It's not always like this." "But right now it is." "Let's go for a drink." " Come on." " Sorry." "Tell me?" "I was nine too when my dad died." "He was in the police force too?" "Yes." "And my grandad and uncle also." "Would you prefer a man as your boss?" "Johnny Olsen, why did you go to the pub?" " Just happened to..." " It's not on." "We investigate." "You drive the truck." " What's with your eye?" " A fight at the pub." "Let me have a look at it." "Don't worry." "Poulsen wasn't sure if he was the boy's father." "Everyone at the pub knows that Kim's the father." "Good night." "Where were we?" "If you'd prefer a man as boss?" "I couldn't tell the difference." "Sleep well." "Morning." "Was it a late night?" "No, not too late." " Any male candidates?" " No." "Ingrid here." "Okay." " Well?" " Andersen called Ulf." "Horsen Police Station 07:30, Sunday November 14" "Hi." "Can I still stay at the hotel?" "Of course." " I ran into Ulf at the cinema." " Ulf, at the cinema?" "I ran into him just as I was leaving." " Aren't you happy to see me?" " I am." "I'll book a room at the Jørgensen." " Lucky you could come with Ulf." " Yes." "Please meet our deputy chief constable." "She doesn't agree with the evidence." " We have a problem." " Ingrid, right?" "She wasn't my idea." "There you are." "Could we two have a moment?" "You're not handling this case well." "Don't forget, you're representing Unit One." "You work with the local police, not against them." " That is my goal." " Really?" "Why did you make an arrest when Andersen was against it?" "Jeppe escaped to Spain." "Kim might have done the same." "Only if he had a guilty conscience." "I've heard about your indictment." "It's very shaky." "You haven't heard everything." "Two days before the killing, a 12-gauge shotgun was stolen from this house in Hansted." "Nothing else was stolen from the house." "Blood traces were left from a broken window." "The owners had been foster-parents to..." "Kim Boager Hansen." "The same day, a local officer in Hansted booked a speeding car." "Driving the car was Kim Boager Hansen." "Also in the car was his mate Jeppe." "The officer noted a scratch on Kim's arm." "They have a relationship and he could be her boy's father." "Kim's got a financial and emotional motive for killing Poulsen." ""Undoubted." "Could be..."" "The judge won't release Kim until we've got his DNA profile and checked if he stole the weapon." "And if it's Kim's blood in the car." "I'll do my best." "Then it was correct of me to pay a visit." " The judge granted 72 hours?" " No comment." " You moved too early?" " No comment." "Excuse me." "TV." "Coffee machine." "Microwave." "Fridge." "When I'm tired, a bunk bed." "Okay." "Also a bunk bed here." "Maybe I should sell my house." "Got it all." "What else do I need?" " How is your eye?" " Fine." "Do you always get into fights?" "Do you always ask silly questions?" "Just give him his dummy." "And a kiss from me." "Two days." "Maybe three." " Any news?" " Hang on." " I'll call later." " Thanks." "We might get the DNA result today." "When we get the result, I'll shout us all dinner." " And a beer." " Me too." "Ingrid, I'm sorry to tell you." "Your local hospital called." "There's been an accident." "Tobias?" "It's your husband." "He's been hit by a car." "But if he's out of theatre, I want to know what happened." "Thank you." "The blood from the house and from the car match." "But the DNA doesn't match Kim Boager Hansen." "Shouldn't we inform Andersen?" "Well, now they'll crucify her." "Hi, honey." "I'm sorry." "Why can't I ever leave you on your own?" "It's okay." "To be continued..." "I suggested you'd be most suitable." " But someone was better." " Maybe so, but... you got the job." " He dislikes me." " That's why you got the job." "Why not come too?" "We could stay at a hotel." "And what am I going to do while you work?" "Well, case almost solved?" "The bikers?" "Not our main lead." " When did you last get laid?" " Shut up." "Before 1980?" " Isn't that Johnny Olsen?" " You're right." " Why not introduce him?" " Come on, it's Johnny Olsen." "An old, alcoholic pub owner married to a lovely lady." "A guy moves into the basement." "A real hunk." "Three months later she falls pregnant." "Can I still stay at the hotel?" "Of course." ""Call Signe." Any idea who sent this?" " The redhead." " You gave her my number?" "Kim could have made the drive." "Why not arrest Grue?" "He threatened the deceased." "There are other possibilities." "Do you always get into fights?" "Do you always ask silly questions?" "It's 19.07." "You're under arrest." " I'm always chief suspect." " It isn't you, then?" "No." " We have a problem." " Ingrid, right?" "You're not handling this case well." "Don't forget, you're representing Unit One." "Your husband..." "He's been hit by a car." "If he's out of theatre, tell me what happened." "The DNA profile doesn't match Kim Boager Hansen." "They'll crucify her." "Request for Assistance A-21/99" "Johnny Olsen." ""Golden Johnny."" "Do you think he hangs around because of Gaby?" " Yes, she does seem to like him." " I guess she does." "Jealous?" "No, I think he's a hunk but I'm not in love with him." "Well, he doesn't seem your type anyway." " It's pussy night tonight!" " I have to see my old man." " To show him the insignia?" " He'll be the first to see it." " We should have dumped it." " Shut up." "Way to go!" "Shit!" "What the hell?" "Did you wet yourself?" "Fischer." "Respect!" "A 12-gauge shotgun." "Grue Gorm Larsen, you're under arrest." "UNIT ONE" "Episode 3" "I want you to stay in for another 24 hours." "Your left pupil is sluggish." " I can't stay." " You're seriously concussed."

"Interrogation of Grue Larsen." "15 November 1999." "DI LaCour present." " Was your shotgun used?" " Yes." "That's how you got your insignia?" "You told that guy to do the hold-up?" "Yes." "Why?" "He didn't know the code?" "Or was it a debt?" " Did he owe money?" " Yes." "Who did he owe money to?" "Grue's shotgun isn't the murder weapon." "Grue, who was it?" "You have to give me a name." "If you don't start talking you're being kept in custody." "No saying goodbye to your dad." "Fair enough." "Fine." "Grue's interrogation terminated." "15 November 1999." " Leo." " Again?"

" That's how we are." " I saw you talking to Jan." " Sitting next to a doctor means a free consultation or he'll be disappointed." "You mentioned your headaches?" " What did he say?" " The usual." "Talk to your doctor." " And this time you'll do it?" " Yes, I will." "They think they've found the car that hit me." "It wasn't reported stolen." "The owner was away." "I don't care any more."

" No." " What did you do then?" "You weren't here or you'd have known she wasn't at home." "Right..." "Where were you?" "I..." "Try telling the truth and save us both time." " I was with another..." " Woman?" " Yes." " When did you leave her?" "Saturday morning." "Your wife knew?" "Does this woman have a name?" "Did you really play for Denmark?" "Can I have your autograph?" "Look." " What's your name?" " Christoffer." "She's my sister." "My son's a Christoffer." "Great name." " You are?" " Line." " Want one?" " No." "Mum!" " That's great." "Come on." " He played for Denmark." "Come on." "We knew the dead woman." "Leaving?" "Yes." "I found out that my kids are at their grandma's." "She's stupid taking the boys away without your consent." "I got advice from a lawyer." "If she does that, the courts are likely to award you full custody." "You might want to tell her that." "You know what you are?" "Lovely..." "I might be back tonight." "Nøddebo School 16.11, Sunday March 5" "I've known her a long time." "We were high school friends." "We both studied theology." "I quit it for teaching." "And coincidently the year I became head here she was appointed parish priest." "So you were very close?" "Yes..." "Absolutely." "Barring my wife, she was the person I valued most." "Maria!" " This is my wife." " Fischer, Homicide." "We're both devastated over what's happened." "I was out of town with the kids when Maria called me." "We thought of cancelling the carnival but Eva wouldn't have wanted that." "Right, love?" "Okay." "Yes." "I'll do that." "I'll call you." "Great." " Can you come to my office?" " Why?" "We can talk in front of your husband." "I don't care." " Let's say 10 o'clock?" " Yes." " Bye." " Bye." "What did he want?" "They know." "The whole town knows." "You must realise this isn't easy for me either." ""...unseemly." ""Seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked." ""Thinketh no evil." ""Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth."" "I'm Jens Olesen." " I'm the verger." " I figured that." "Thomas LaCour, Homicide." "What a voice she had!" "The priest." "And then that text of St Paul's... that she loved more than anything." " You wanted to see me?" " You were in Hillerød Friday?" " Returning by bus at 22.30?" " Yes." " You saw a light on over here." " I assumed she'd forgotten it." "So I switched it off." " Where's the switch?" " In the porch." " Did you try the church door?" " Yes, it was locked." "While she was lying in here..." "Jens..." "What do you think happened?" "That's obvious to anyone." "It was his work!" " Could you show me the switch?" " Yes." "Did you see anything else Friday evening?" "A man left the church." " You knew him?" " He didn't stop." "He didn't see me." "The priest's husband." "Why didn't he say before?" "Confusion, he says." "Four witnesses on the 22.34 bus from Hillerød independently say they saw Jørgen Eriksen walk from the church to the vicarage." "Excuse me." "But this may be important." "My neighbour, who's in insurance, tells me the Eriksens had mutual life insurance." "Jørgen's rich." "He'll get almost two million with the death of his wife." "What are we waiting for?" "He's a liar." " He needs to explain himself." " Tomorrow." " He'll tell more lies then." " He's just lost his wife." " We're not social workers." " We don't have enough on him." "In my day that would have justified a warrant." "I want to talk to his girlfriend." "If he absconds or suicides, who's responsible?" " I am." " You?" "Wouldn't it be wise to check with Ulf first?" "No." "Thanks for now." "Gaby?" " Coming?" " I've got some work to do." "I've booked a room at the inn for tonight." "Okay." "Bye-bye." " Why don't we take him?" " Just go home to your wife." "Aren't we in a good mood!" "Riddle solved." "Boysen, the genius." "Ingrid and Søren here." "Leave a message." "It's me." "Where are you all?" "Could you get Tobias's skis down from the attic?" " Hi, where were you?" " Oh, I was just..." " Where are Gry and Tobias?" " Gry's with her mum and Tobias is picking up a game from a friend." "I can't remember who." " You sound strange." " I don't feel good." " Is it that headache?" " I'm fine." "There's a virus going around." " Sure?" " Yes." "I'm off to Forensics." "Boysen's solved our locked room riddle." "Fine, darling." "Bye for now." "So?" "An American colleague of mine is in no doubt." "Have you ever chopped off a hen's head?" "No, but I've seen them run around headless." "Exactly." "Its reflexes say "flight"" "long after it's clinically dead." "That's got nothing to do with this." "And yet." "You saw her cranium?" "Yes." " The fractures caused a rupture." " Meaning?" "No hole, and she'd have died instantly." "The brain's of an exact size." "The skull has limited space." "So if the brain swells following a blow, the pressure rises, the blood supply stops and it's curtains." "But here... the blood escaped." " I'll get her and show you." " No, I follow." "It might have given her..." "30 seconds." "The killer runs." "Her last thought is to lock the murderer out." "She locks the door, staggers back, collapses..." " And dies." " Okay." "Any ideas?" " Do you know who did it?" " No." "Come for a bite and some more ideas." " You never give up." " So what?" "I'm spoken for." "I'm sending Tobias off to Norway tomorrow morning." "How can you leave after all I've done for you?" " One beer?" " Okay." "One beer." "It's like a magic trick." "Do you know what I mean?" "When you know it, you think "Was that really all it was?"" "Like with this locked room." "A bit like "Oh!"" "The question now is, who was she locking out?" "Are you asleep?" "Nøddebo 07.45, Monday March 6" "Good morning." " Johnny's not back?" " Why should he be?" "He'll come when I ask him to fetch the office." "Why did I think he'd be back last night?" "Who knows?" " Did Tobias get off okay?" " Oh..." "I could kick myself." "The last thing I said was" ""No black pistes." That's all he'll think about now." "I won't have a moment's peace." "Morning." "Hillerød Police Station had problems last night." "The chief constable told me." "We've got to manage on our own." "As long as that man..." "Vindfeldt..." "Good morning." "I've solved the riddle of the locked room." "I spent all last night talking to my good friend Uffe." "He's a consultant physician at the hospital and now..." "Yes..." "Now!" "Here comes the shock." "It was the priest herself who locked that door." ""But how can that be?"" " You all ask." "Right?" " Yes?" "How?" "Because she had a hole in her skull through which the blood seeped." "That extended her life by 30 seconds." "Enough time for her to lock the door." " Of course." " Sure." "The spade in the shed may be the murder weapon." "There are no stains." "All tools were carefully cleaned." "That doesn't help us." "Anyone can get in there." "Have you..." "Have you picked Jørgen up?" " No." " No?" "Not that I want to interfere." "There's nothing more annoying than an ex-cop, but..." "There's a little bell ringing up here." "When I passed the vicarage the curtains were still closed." "You can say many things about Jørgen but he's always been a morning person." "Hello." "I'll..." "I'll pop in a bit later." "This way, please." "Eriksen says he was with you Friday night." " Is Jørgen a suspect?" " No." "Why does it matter where he was?" "First he told the police he was with his wife." "But when told she was killed Friday evening he said he'd been with you." "If you can confirm that we can clear that one up." "He was with me." "Do you mind telling me what you did?" "Guess." " You're having an affair?" " It means nothing." " "Means nothing"?" " It was purely sexual." " Did Jørgen feel the same way?" " Yes." "We agreed." "As long as we didn't hurt anyone it was nobody's business." "How long has it been going on?" "What?" "I've told you he was with me, isn't that enough?" "Yes." " When did he arrive?" " Around 8." " When did he leave?" " The next morning... at 9.30." "And you were together all the time?" " I can't quite hear you." " Yes, we were." "So his wife knew of the affair since he spent all night with you?" "Yes." "And your husband?" "I told him last night after what had happened." " How did he take it?" " He was upset, of course." "But... we're adults, aren't we?" "Before your husband left with your children," "Friday evening, what did you talk about?" " How's it going?" " I don't remember." "Splendid." "Three lies so far." "Two witnesses heard arguments and said he left very angry." "Why so angry?" "Jørgen didn't leave you but five people saw him at the church?" "Maria!" "This is serious." "It's a murder investigation." "That thing... about it meaning nothing..." "Perhaps it did?" "Was that what you argued about?" "You told him you wanted a divorce?" "Yes." "And Jørgen went to the church to tell his wife the same thing?" "Yes." "For how long was he gone?" "Half an hour." "How was he when he returned?" "Distraught..." "It had been hard for him to tell her." "It had been a shock for her." "She suffered... from arthritis." "She couldn't have coped on her own." "I woke up that night." "He was crying." "He said it would have been more humane..." "To kill her?" "Could he have done it?" "Could he have killed her?" "I don't know." "I don't." "I saw the famous play Nøddebo Parsonage every year." " Have you seen it?" " Yes, but once was enough." ""When's Christmas?" It's asked." ""When the students arrive." Well, we're here." "Deceased's home 09.44, Monday March 6" "It's the police." "Please open the door." "It's the police." "Anyone at home?" " IP!" " He stinks like hell." "What a binge!" "I don't have to talk to the police." "I don't." "But I want to talk to you." "I'd like to tell you the whole thing." "She was not meant to..." "She wasn't meant to..." " Allan Fischer." " Jørgen Eriksen." " And you're okay to talk?" " Yes." "Hang your coat up, sit down and there's a pick-me-up." "Interrogation at 14.30 on March 6 of Jørgen Eriksen." "You're not obliged to say anything." "Right." "Where were you Friday night?" "With a friend." "That friend, Maria Lange, says you left at 22.00." "Five people saw you at the church at 22.30." "Shall we start from there?" "Right so far?" "Yes." "What did you do at the church?" " I told Eva." " What did you tell her?" "I told her the truth, that I wanted a divorce." "Was she surprised?" "Yes." "How did she react?" "She became upset." "Very upset." " Did she cry?" " Yes." " Did you comfort her?" " Yes." "But she..." " She misunderstood." " How?" "She became..." " She became amorous." " And then what?" "I..." " I pulled myself away." " And what then?" "She became furious." " She drove me out." " Out of the church?" "Yes." " And that was it?" " Yes." " Two million's a lot of money." " What?" " Two million's a lot of money." " What are you talking about?" "I'll make myself clear." "Your life insurance!" "We don't have any." "We've checked it out." "Look here." "That signature!" "That's yours, right?" "16 March 1999." "I thought it was an ordinary household policy." "That's hard to believe." "Your wife's ill, close to 50 and this is not cheap." "A financial drain." "Eva was in charge of all that." "She took it out for me." "Yes." "Let's hear what really happened in that church." "More reports." "How's it going?" "He's tough." "It's been three hours." "Look at these." "These are dated March 1." "You remember?" "Five days ago." "Paid by you at the post office." "Look at this." "Oops!" "There's the life insurance." "Eva asked me to pay it." "And the amount didn't surprise you?" "No." "Jørgen, this is a lot of money." "Ingrid's phone." "Gaby here." "Gry?" "Just a moment." "It's Gry." " Yes?" " I'm at the hospital." " It's Dad." " What's up with him?" " He's having brain surgery." " What?" "He fainted in the kitchen and..." "I called an ambulance." " He's being operated on." " I'm on my way." "It's Søren." "He's in surgery." "I'll have to go." "I'll drive." " I'll drive myself." " Don't argue." "Niels!" "He had complications but he'll make it." " What is this?" " He was unconscious." "We found a blood clot." "If we hadn't operated he would have died." " How long has he had it?" " Since the accident." "The blow caused a blood vessel to leak." "Why didn't you find it before?" "He refused to stay in for observation." "But we may not have found it anyway." "We can thank Gry for acting so promptly." " I'll phone later." " Thanks, IP." "We needed a new headmistress." "It was a choice between Mrs Møller or Miss Smith." "Mrs Møller was best qualified and had better connections." "But Miss Smith was someone any school would appreciate." "You remembered?" "I'll get you a glass." "I didn't want her to listen on her own." " She's magnificent." " Søren's in hospital." " What?" " He'll pull through." "There's a sofa if you want to lie down." "Good idea." "I'll call you when he wakes." " You promise?" " Yes." "Ingrid here." "The grocer says..." "On her way to the church Pastor Eriksen bought batteries for her dictaphone." "She asked him to change them but he had a customer so he didn't." "Ask Jørgen Eriksen if he changed the batteries." "You say she got furious." "She must have hit you, eh?" " She didn't." " Think about it, man." "She hit you, you hit back." "Too hard..." "She fell and you thought "Oh, well..." ""I might as well finish her off."" "Jørgen?" "Did you put new batteries in your wife's dictaphone?" "No." "It was the first thing she asked when I got to the church." "If I could help her change the batteries." "But we forgot about it when we started talking." "It's 21.48." "Interview terminated." "You may leave." "But stay in Nøddebo." "Cheerio." "So what's going on here?" " Ingrid's idea." "The batteries." " Yes?" "For the dictaphone." "She bought them on her way." " Her hands were arthritic." " So?" "Jørgen left the church at 22.30." "By 23.30 she was dead." "Someone else changed the batteries." "I have to leave." "Well..." "Jens Olesen, verger." "Mean anything?" "The verger?" " Get him." " Fischer's on it." " Out..." " Did you hear him?" "Yes." " Is that Ingrid?" "Let me talk." " Yes." "It's me." "He wasn't there." "I checked with Vindfeldt." "He might be with his mum at a nursing home."

"You're not obliged to say anything." "Jens, don't forget my little gift." "What do you want now?" " Is she talking to you?" " No." "When did you leave on Friday?" "On the 6 o'clock bus." "How come your fingerprints are on the batteries?" "They were bought at 8 p.m." "You went to the church after Hillerød?" "Yes." " And changed the batteries?" " She was alive then." "Why didn't you say this before?" "You might have suspected me." "Jens..." " That girl..." " Pia?" "Yes." "Pia." " Do you see her often?" " She's my girlfriend." "She's ill." "So she needs money." "Have you told your mum about her?" "No." " But she knows." " No, she doesn't!" "Yes." "She told us we'd find you at Pia's." "Then it was all unnecessary." "Killing Eva?" "Was it because of Pia you killed her?" "Yes." "Why?" "I was on my way to the church to tell the priest something." "I heard the Eriksens arguing." "I waited for him to leave." "Tell her what?" "That I'd embezzled money from the church funds." "Pia's very ill, so..." "she needs a lot of money." "So..." "So when the priest... asked me to change the batteries..." "I told her what I'd done and... that I would pay it back." "I've never seen her so inflexible." "She said she'd tell the whole parish council." "And my mum too." "So you got the spade?" "She always talked about..." "Iove... suffering all." "A devil got into me." "I was really angry." "Sorry." "Well done." "See you." "We got a full confession." "Ingrid." " It didn't work."

" How long will his heart beat?" " Twelve hours at the most." "Your decision can wait." "If I were to follow Søren's wishes..." "He'd want to help others." "We'd like to be alone now." "Oh, no." "Gry." "Is he awake?" "No, he's not awake." "And he'll never wake up." "What?" "Your father's dead." "No." "There, there." "Come here." "Shall I call your mother?" " You all did a great job."

" Two or three times." " Alone?" " Yes, alone." " Is it a sin to visit a colleague?" " No." "Unless that colleague disappears without a trace." "Got a girlfriend?" "That's none of the police's business." "You left the party in Skipper's red car?" "Yes?" " Why didn't you say so earlier?" " It wasn't important." "We were looking for a red car but you didn't think it was important?" "I wasn't out there." " Why did you take the car?" " To visit friends on Sunday." "You went straight home Saturday?" "I'd like an answer." "I went straight home Saturday night." "Police reconstruction 20.50, Saturday March 25" "Good evening." "Thanks for coming." "Gaby Andreasen..." "Alice and Tom Petersen." "I know this is unpleasant, but we must get it right." "Gaby goes with you and sits where Ulla was sitting." "Drop her at the same spot." " Can you manage?" " Of course." "I'll sit in the other car." "See if you recognise it." "In the back on the other side." " You and Ulla left the party." " What?" "According to Bodil you were gone for half an hour." " We needed some fresh air." " Were you drunk?" "No." "A bit." "You dance all night, then you go out for some air." "Am I wrong in presuming you wanted to kiss her?" "It wasn't like that at all." "You were dancing close, she was happy, egging you on..." " Did you make a date for later?" " No, I wasn't out there." "Perhaps without her knowledge?" "You sat in the car working yourself up?" "No." "Cut the lights when her parents showed?" "You watched her walk down the road." "You called to her." "She climbed into the car." "But she got cold feet." "She's married with kids and you think "What the hell?" ""She's been coming on all night and now she plays chaste."" "Things happen quickly." "It's not your fault." "That's not the car." "When she got out of the car..." "I turned and looked back at her." "But I couldn't see her for the waiting car." "I could this time." "I saw Gaby over the roof of the car." "It was a much bigger car." " You get lots of pussy, eh?" " Please stop." " Did you fuck her first or..." " Stop!" "You've fucked all the others and now you wanted her." "But she wouldn't play ball." "It's damned annoying and you got angry, eh?" "I was with a guy that evening." "I'm gay, damn you." "Happy now?" "Negative ID on the car." "Well, isn't this going well?" "It's 21.45." "Interrogation terminated." "We're finished." "You can go." "Sorry for the inconvenience." "You sit there and abuse me and then you just say "sorry"." "It's my job." " You were hard on him." " I know." " But he provoked me." " Is it because he's gay?" " What?" " You're homophobic." "I'm not." "You suppress it without knowing it." "I don't like Jewish comics." "Am I anti-Semitic?" "You pay 100 kroner less for shoes here." " What do you want them for?" " Running." " You can't run." " Hi." "Is this a bad time?" "I went to see Ingrid." "She's in a bad state." " You saw Ingrid?" " She's worse than this morning." "You saw her this morning, too?" "I'm sorry, IP." "She feels like shit." "I wasn't to tell." "I've been asking every day and you said nothing!" " What's wrong with her?" " I was helping her and... one of your colleagues came." "Madsen..." "He's investigating Søren's accident." " Yes." " I'll go and see her." "Fischer, do you want to see Mille?" "Too late." " Sure?" " Quite sure." " Why don't you go with him?" " Because it's too late now." "Typical Ulf." "He gives you leave, but does he give us extra staff?" "So four people do the work of five." "You're sweet, IP." "But you're too transparent." "They took a video of the birthday party." "A typical Danish girl with friends and family, mother to two lovely kids." "I'll leave it here." "Perhaps you'd look at it?" "What about Madsen?" "What did he want?" "They found the guy who ran Søren down." "At first he admitted it." "But later on he withdrew his confession." "He'll be released tomorrow." "No forensic evidence." "How can I tell Tobias that a guilty man walks?" "No..." " Here." " Thanks." "He'll find it hard to understand." "Hi, I'm home." "Hello!" "Kirsten?" "I thought you were staying in Roskilde." " I had to see Ingrid." " How is she?" " Feeling bad." " Of course she is." "You've got shoes on." "Get me some cigarettes." " I thought you'd quit." " I've started up again." "A bit." " Please?" " Okay." "I'll just go to the toilet." " Yes?" " IP's back." " Are you expecting visitors?" " No." " There's a tray in the kitchen." " I was hoping I'd see you." "Who is it?" "Ulf." " I thought so." " It's not what you think." "Really?" "He's constantly ringing to talk." "He's lonely." "And afraid of his coming retirement." "Please!" "I'm glad you came back so I could get rid of him." " Did you cancel Ulf?" " Yes, while you were out." "Call him back." "Tell him the coast is clear." "I'll find a hotel room." "Tårnby Police Station 08.50, Sunday March 26" " Hi, Madsen." " Aren't you in Roskilde?" "Officially." "Where's the driver?" " Outside." " I'd like to see him." " While you're not here?" " Exactly." "What's going on?" "I'm being let out in an hour." "I knew the guy you hit." "I nabbed his radio but that's it." "Sadly for you he was married to a woman I value a lot." "But I couldn't care less about you." "As if I care." "These new guns we've got are a bit peculiar." "There's no manual safety catch." "Not even a click." "Or any resistance." "Only a silent transition." "Look, I'm cocking it." "And the next thing... oops!" " You're splattered on the wall." " You're insane." "I'll claim self-defence." "You grabbed me, took the gun and it discharged." "It's a pity, but they'll believe me." "Got anything to say?" "It was me." "I didn't mean to hit him, but he was just standing there!" "If you pull a fast one, remember I'm out there." "I have no chance of forgetting you because I work with that woman." "Every day I have to look at her and see how unhappy she is." " Do you understand me?" " Yes." "Madsen!" "It was me." "But it wasn't deliberate." "Who was that crazy geezer?" "Who?" "Søndergaard, you can't do this to me." "I said "a car"." " Would it pass an inspection?" " It's seen better times." " Yes, before the war." " This is emergency stock." "Are you calling me an emergency?" " You've been busy." " I checked all the red cars." "A red van has been seen." "Sunday morning at 3." "Here!" " Three kilometres away." " Dutch numberplates..." " Spotted all over the place." " And the driver?" "Two..." "A man and a younger woman." " Could the woman be Ulla?" " It's possible." "These police have a problem with cars." "Where is it?" " When was it last seen?" " Yesterday." "South of town." "Amazing." " That's enough." "Enough!" " I'll get another one." " Hi, there." " How are things?" " Just a moment, darling." " I can't hear." "I've had an idea." " Do you still want to travel?" " Of course." "Victor and I could come with you to New York." " We could stay with Helene." " Is that wise?" "Listen, darling, I'll ring you later." "Please open the door." "It's the police." "IP here." "Thanks." "What's the local force doing?" "Fischer spotted the couple in the red van." " And the girl?" " Definitely not Ulla." " Ingrid?" " Hi." "Good to see you." "Welcome back." " You left this." " Nice of you to return it." "I've watched it back and forth five times." "It looks like any other party video but it's much more." "It looks as if the camera was passed around." "When the husband Bjørn is out of view and he's filming what's he looking at?" "Bjørn filmed 14 minutes of his wife dancing with another man." "This is a portrait of a very jealous husband." "Jealous enough to kill her?" "Ulla may very well have got home that night and Bjørn was waiting for her." "Are you saying she walked home in stockinged feet?" "She took her shoes off." "She'd been dancing all night and wanted a warm footbath." "Good grief!" "Oh, well." "I need to break them in first." " Any news of Ulla?" " No, I'm afraid not." "What now?" "I'd like to introduce myself." "Ingrid Dahl..." "I've been away but I'm back in charge now." "Yesterday it was someone else." "I hope you keep tabs." "Lovely plot." " Did you fix it up?" " Yes." "Together with Ulla." "May I have a look around?" "Go right ahead." "I have a few questions." "Yes." "Since my report, I've answered questions from four different officers." "It's about your report." "You thought Ulla was at your in-laws' but found out she was dropped off late at night?" "Yes." " Then you called the police?" " Yes." " That's my problem." " Why?" " She wasn't back home." " No, but had it been me" "I'd have been afraid something had happened on the way." " That she was lying out there." " I went out looking." "Later." "Bath salts." "She goes over here." "Facing forwards." "Like this." "He could have come in without her noticing." "She'd danced with Maurice." "Did you call him?" "No." "You didn't think she might be at his place?" "With him?" "She's not like that." "Neither was my husband." "But if he vanished after dancing all night with a woman" "I'd call her before the police." " But you didn't do that?" " No." "Because you knew where she was?" "What are you implying?" " That I'm involved?" " Am I implying that?" "I thought I was saying it straight out." " Are you from the police?" " Yes, I am." " What are you doing?" " You found your way?" "If you have no more questions I'd like to tend to my kids." " Your colleague's waiting." " Yes." "Come on, darling." "We'll see what Magnus is up to."

"Driven by a Dutch photographer, with a female model." "They told me they'd talked to Ulla." "They take photographs and sell hash." "They're not squeaky-clean and Saturday they got lost." "They saw Ulla and she helped them." " Guess what else." " What?" "They saw Ulla walk back to the house and go in." "Perfect." " 3811." "Whose number is that?" " Her girlfriend Bodil." " His own number is not there." " Any luck?" "We've got his mobile calls from Sunday before noon while he was tidying up." "He made lots of calls to family and friends." "Probably to check on Ulla." " But..." " His number's not there." "He doesn't call home." "Not once." "Why didn't he call to check if Ulla was there?" "Because he knew she wasn't." "Not bad." "My next question..." " You know the area?" " Intimately." "Where would you dump a body?" "You're here!" "Your kids are asleep and you've got... a maximum of half an hour." "Thanks." "Out by the weir." "They've found a body." "It may be her." "A woman in a plastic bag." "Yes." "He could have done it in half an hour." "It's Ulla." "Strangled with her own stocking." "We'll pick him up." "I've been lucky on this case." "First it was Azoulay, then I get a Ford Escort instead of a car and now I'm a passenger." " Are you okay?" " His car's gone." "I'm afraid something's wrong with my son-in-law." "I spoke to him half an hour ago." "He sounded incoherent." "He said you'd been here." "Tom." "We agreed I'd look after the kids, but they're gone." " I searched the house." " Tom..." "We've found Ulla." "Yes." "She's dead." "Yes." "Yes." "That piece of information..." "I'd expected it." "So that was what you talked to him about." "No wonder he appeared so confused." "He doesn't know." "Why did you come, then?" "You think he did it." "He's got the children." "Where could they have gone?" "A special place?" "Here." "Share it with Magnus." "I love wine gums." "Here." "What are you doing, Dad?" "P12, P12." "We need assistance in Boserup Forest." "Meet us at Blsbakke Street and..." "Boserup." "What are we doing?" "Dad?" "Daddy, listen to me." "We'll just sit here." "Dad, what are you waiting for?" "There!" " Stop!" " Open up." "Open up!" "Stay there." "Come to Grandad." "Come here." " I'm sorry, Tom." " Come on, boy." "The way... she hung around his neck." "She'd been with him." "I was sure she'd been with him." "When she eventually got home..." "She took her stockings off." "She..." "She thought I was being silly." "She had her back turned." "I took her stockings and..." "The bag was in the garage." "Can you give me a lift?" "No, I can't." "I'm going to Køge." "I see." "I thought you'd moved out." "I promised Mette I'd help her with some accounts." "She's not going to England?" "No, she realised it wasn't on." "I haven't seen the boys for a whole week." " But I could drop you off." " No, I'll work something out." "I could drop by later." "Why?" "To check the shelves." "We've moved back home." "It's not up for discussion." " I don't need to cook, then?" " Have you ever?" " Hi, Mum." " Tobias." "Hi, darling." "It's great to have you two back." "It's great you're back at work." "I wouldn't mind a normal job in any old boring police station." " Drop Homicide?" " And always be home?" " So we could be together." " You're too cool for that." " You're the coolest mum ever." " Yes." "Bjørn Englund later withdrew his confession." "Bjørn Englund later withdrew his confession." "He was charged with his wife's murder and the attempted murder of his children."

"And Flemming was there." " Was that fear or intuition?" " Fear is of no use." "I saw these images of Mille being in danger." "Your conscience was punishing you for neglecting your family." "But it was your intuition that made you go home." "Oh." "Okay." " Good morning." " Did you write the report?" "No, I'm not a machine." "Listen." "Yesterday I was on holidays when my wife was attacked." "And I have a small criminal case on." " We all have our crosses." " In triplicate?" "I didn't say that." "I just want it today."

"There are lots of calls to the anonymous caller's phone." "I called it." "It's on, but there's no answer." "Maybe your number has to be recognised before they answer?" " That's possible." " Sorry for butting in." "I talked to someone yesterday who said... the murdered woman Ditte had a boyfriend before that guy Flemming." " And?" " A guy called Noller." "Dead jealous of Flemming and Ditte." " Noller?" " Jens Arnold Jørgensen." "Scum." " That sounds right." " Where did you get your info?" " Around town." " Be a bit more specific." "A girlfriend of Ditte's." " Does she have a name?" " Susie." "She works in a pub." " She couldn't get..." " Sucking Susie." " That's what they call her." " And did she, Johnny?" " Fischer!" " Yes." " Go and talk to Susie." " I'll talk to Susie." "What was it she couldn't get?" "That woman..." "Susie?" "Why Noller would visit Flemming and Ditte at the cottage." "Him being so jealous."

"He's been kicked while lying on his stomach with his hands behind him, handcuffed." "Flemming's lawyer is ready to go public." "I told him about the knife threat and that he resisted arrest." "He couldn't care less." "Regretfully he's right." "It doesn't change the fact he was kicked after the arrest." " We don't know that for sure." " I see." "That's your view?" "I've asked Fischer for his version." " I'll decide then." " That's not enough." "I had to assure the lawyer of a full inquiry." "And as such, I've had to inform Ulf." "He's on his way." "I'm really sorry." "For Fischer too." "Interview of witness 09.50, Friday April 7" "Ditte loved Flemming." "She was a bit wild Grab these." "She wanted action when she was drinking and smoking." "Things really got moving." "You'd know, wouldn't you?" "There!" "Sweet dreams." "See you later." "She liked Flemming's lawlessness." "He wasn't dull." "He was off his head." "It must have been dull out there alone." "They played mum and dad." "She was pregnant." "She asked him to serve his time so they could be a family." "But he was afraid to do that." " Why?" " He feared she wouldn't wait." "And wouldn't she have?" "Ditte had ants in her pants and he knew it." " What's with this Noller guy?" " Noller?" "He's a psychopath." "Ditte's ex." "He flipped when she left him." "Flipped?" "How so?" "He went out of control." "So why would he visit them at the cottage?" "Maybe he was no longer jealous because he had a new girlfriend?" " Hadn't he?" " Yeah." " What's her name?" " Her name's Karen." "She's ancient." "40 at least." " She works at the hospital?" " I don't know." "Where do I find Noller?"

"That... that psychopath threatened me with a knife and that you had to kick him to the floor." " Mille, it wasn't necessary." " Yes, it was." "The problem is, he didn't believe me."

"He described in gory detail how he'd killed her." "He asked Noller to help him move the body." "Noller flipped out completely." "You see, Noller's not..." "He's not well." "No one's ever looked after him." "But you did." "Yes." "He gave you a mobile to run your business." "I've never made money on it." "He got it into his head that he'd killed Ditte." "We found her on the beach, not in the garden." "That's what I said." "We didn't find her there." "We found her in the bathroom." "I don't think you were in the house at the time."
