"We've got a 37 year old female named Birgitta Vésteinsdóttir." "She was last seen at Broadway on Saturday night." "Kristinn Grétarsson, her daughter's father." "Their daughter stayed at his place two nights ago." "Birgitta was supposed to pick her up yesterday but never came." "What was she doing there at Steinar's?" "Picking up some copies or something." "I don't know." "If you accept the offer" "Then it would be your first assignment to help us find a laptop." "I found this computer in the back seat of that Renault." "Does anyone back at the station know about this?" "No." " Good." "Why did you hand him the computer?" "I don't know." "He was offering me a job." "You have a job." "Yes, that's why I took backups." "What is this?" "The Icelandic national register, with information about many individuals." "All electronic transactions." "Credit cards..." "They've found her." "Let's go." "Found who?" " Birgitta." "They found the body." "Come on." "You and Guðni will go and find Kristinn and arrest him." "If he was going to hang himself, it further points to him killing Birgitta." "Few things are more talked about these days then copies sent to the media which presumably is from Birgitta Vésteinsdóttir's laptop, but she was found dead yesterday and presumed murdered." "What's most notable from the copies is information from a database which they maintain was compiled for the National Security Unit." "Birgitta was a computer analyst, and quite sought after as such." "The database was based on the national registry with added information about peoples consumer preferences, where and when a person shops, what he buys, who he calls, and what movies he rents out." "Former minister of foreign affairs, Jón Balvin Hannibalsson has inspected this data." "Jón Baldvin, what's your comment on this?" "This brings to light what this National Security Unit has been working on these last years." "It originally had an aura of espionage which people had had different opinions of severity." "It's understandable they're trying out something like this even in a small country such as ours." "I could for example find your social security number..." "Get your shoes on." "...by entering my online bank..." "Kid's, I'm listening." "...and look you up in the national registry." "But isn't this illegal?" " Yes, my word, it's highly illegal to gather informations about the citizens, personal information..." "Svenni?" "... this way..." "Svenni, I'm off with the kids." "... for a database..." "I'm sorry, don't you have to show up for work?" "Yes, I'm going later." "Get into the car." "I've got your bag." "Hold on." "Take your bag dear." " Yes." "Katrín." "Hi." " Hi." "Could you perhaps pick me up?" " Sure, no problem." "I'll pick you up, after I drop off the kids." "OK." "This is starting to resemble something the United States was trying to pass through their congress." "Put on your seatbelts kids." "It was a system with the abbreviation T.I.A." "which stood for "Total Information Awareness"." "but then changed to "Terrorist Information Awareness"." "fitting the terrorism paranoia consuming them after September 11th." "[BLACK ANGELS]" "Hello, dear." "How's the weather?" "Yes... yes." "Listen, is your mother there?" "Could I maybe have a word with her?" "What...?" "Really...?" "Why not?" "I see." "Is that so?" "Yes." "No, it will hopefully get solved soon." "Yes." "Yes, OK." "Send my regards." "Yes, bye dear." "This is slowly turning into some farce." "At least you can't say this didn't lead to anything." "Exactly." "Now I know for example what porn sites my husband surfs. and hornyporn.org." "Shit, you can see that also?" "Sure." "I didn't check you out." "No." "I never enter those kinds of web pages." "I can at least discover if you are lying." "Damn it." "It's not that bad, Björgvin." "We managed to stop the leak before anyone else got to it." "This was too much of a leak." "Leifur, and you know it." "This was a bloody screwup." "You must understand." "I had to do something." "I didn't expect the boy to take this option." "Do you realize what this means?" "The phone hasn't stopped ringing in the embassy all day." "The media asking me for comments." "What can I tell them?" "You don't have to tell them anything." "They've summoned me for questioning." "Who?" " The investigative department." "You're not going to show up for any interrogation, Björgvin." "The media will blow it out of proportion, and that alone will make you have to resign." "This is a murder case." "Do you think... he'll survive?" "It's hard to determine." "Well, let's turn to what matters most." "Steinar Ísfeld is lying unconscious in the infirmary." "Any new news of him?" "No." "I'll call them later." "We must put some pressure on Kristinn today." "He's sleeping off the chill, in his cell." "Me and Katrín will handle that." "He must be about to break soon." "It would be good if you and Árni would go talk to María Dís Sigurðardóttir" "Me and Árni?" "The buddies?" "Come on, you bum." "[MINISTRY OF JUSTICE]" "Hello." "Svavar." "Hello." "The damn media had to get their hands on this like so many other stuff." "Yes, I'm running an operation where many people with high moral standards work." "Yes, one was to expect internal struggles since Leifur took this path." "Damn it." "I'm forced to make a TV appearance tonight." "Didn't they call you?" " Yes." "I referred them to you." "Really?" "But you're also responsible." "Yes, but you're the highest ranking in the countries judicial system" "And unlike me, you knew what was going on." "I was kept in the dark and I'm not going to take responsibility for something that I had no control of." "The investigative department has summoned me in for questioning." "I won't be able to appear due to understandable circumstances" "If you have any questions regarding this case then you can ask them here and now." "I think I'll let that be." "Did you stab Steinar Ísfeld?" "Answer the question Kristinn." "Did you stab him?" "I hope he's dead." "That man ruined my life." "How did he do that?" "He started by taking Birgitta from me." "Then he killed her." " Did you stab him, Kristinn?" "Yes." "I stabbed him." "And I'm proud of it." "What about Birgitta?" "What about Birgitta?" "Did you kill her?" "No." "I didn't kill Birgitta." "I could never have hurt her." "I've nothing more to tell you." "Yes, you still have left to tell us what you did after you dropped Birgitta off at Broadway." "No." "I don't have that left to tell." "I went home." "Can someone verify that?" "I don't know." "Maybe Katla?" "She said she woke up." "Maybe she hadn't fallen asleep when I came." "Do you know what Birgitta ate the night she died?" "Ate?" "We had dinner together?" " Where?" "At my place before she left." "What did you have to eat?" "Pizza." "What kind of pizza did she have?" "Same as me." "A vegetarian pizza." "Did it have corn maize?" "Um, yes." "Why would Kristinn want to kill Steinar?" "I have no idea." "I've never seen that guy before." "I didn't even know they knew each other." "You could still have imagined they did?" "Yes, OK." "That guy had a kid with Birgitta." "That doesn't mean he had to know Steinar." "Did Steinar never mention Kristinn?" "I don't remember so." "We've got a warrant to take Steinar's computer in for examination." "Yes, his laptop is over there." "Why didn't you tell me your mother had dinner with you that night?" "Just because." "Did she have the same thing to eat as your daddy?" "Aha." "A vegetarian pizza with corn maize?" "Yes." "Were you awake when your daddy came home that night?" "Yes." "Do you know what time it was?" " No." "OK. here are his latest emails." "Here's a donation for 450.000 dollars." "Dollars?" "Let me see." "There's more here. see." "Can you see when these deposits are made?" "Yes." "They're all done just after midnight." "12:08. 12:10." "This is on Saturday night." "OK." "Katrín." " It's Geir." "I've got something for you." " What is that?" "We've got information from Steinar Ísfeld's security system." "Someone entered the building three minutes past midnight on Saturday." "Then exited 20 minutes later." "That must have been Birgitta." "Then someone entered 02:40." "02:40?" "Stayed for 10 minutes and then left again." "This is of course a case we take very seriously," "OK, thanks." "Bye." "...and obvious there has been... a breach of confidence between departments." "What was that about?" " Just a sec." "As the minister of justice, you must be accountable?" "Of course I carry some responsibility, but so do others." "I can for example testify that I had no idea about this current issue until it surfaced." "When you say "others", are you referring to officials like Svavar Sigurðsson?" "I don't want to name any names but certainly these individuals must have had some knowledge about what was going on there." "Should Svavar resign?" "I'm not going to comment as such at this moment." "God damn weasle." "If Birgitta got into Steinar's and transferred millions from his computer." "You could say he had a motive to kill her." "Witnesses say he has at Broadway the whole time." "That doesn't necessarily mean he didn't go anywhere." "Someone went to his place for 10 minutes." "Someone. who knew how to work the security system." "Yes." "Not many people to consider." "Does anyone know how the autopsy is going?" "I'll talk to Geir." "I was going to have him come along." "Where?" "We've got a search warrant for Steinar and Maria's place." "I'm going to put some pressure on her." "Do you guys want to come along?" "Wait, Stefán is back." "You don't have to keep pretending to be some superior here." "Guðni, follow the lady's orders." "Finally we got to know what this National Security Unit is for." "This is the department our honourable minister of justice had to urgently set up at the time." "And what do we discover?" "What is it doing?" "It's spying on the nations citizens." "And how did we find out?" "By sheer coincidence." "Because this department is suddenly involved in a messy murder case." "And now one must ask:" "Does the minister of justice himself have blood on his hands in this case?" "You said Steinar was with you all night at Broadway?" "Do you stand by that?" "Will you please be careful with what you're checking out." "I live here you know." "This is my home." "You dare barge in here?" "It's intolerable." "I'm asking you to answer the question?" " What was the question again?" "Was Steinar with you all night at Broadway?" " Yes." "Yes, yes, yes!" "How many times do I have to tell you." "Steinar was with me there the whole time." "Is that too difficult?" "Look what I found?" "Soot on the shoes." "Bingo." "I have to ask you to join us at the station." "God damn it." "Because of some of Steinar's shoes?" "Did he mention your name on the radio?" "Björgvin?" "Yes." "That damn bastard." "That he should be a minister?" "He was even insinuating that I should resign." "He's not going to hear the end of this." "Will it be live?" "Yes." "What about Leifur?" "I don't know." "I just don't know." "Guys, you'll keep answering the damn reporters." "Where are you going?" "Good luck." "Go over it again." "I've told you everything I have to say." "How many times do I have to tell you." "I have no idea how he got soot on those shoes since Steini was at the party the whole time." "We have a strong suspicion you know something more." "But I know nothing more." "Why didn't you tell us about Steinar's and Birgitta's relationship?" "Because I thought it didn't make any difference" "That's not yours to judge." "So?" "Are you going to keep me here inside?" "If need be, yes." "I'm pregnant." "We will try to make you as comfortable as possible." "Yes." "Listen?" "Katrín is working." "Yes." "Yes." "That's just the way it is." "So." "I was wondering if you could babysit for me tonight?" "OK?" "Yes." "Now's fine." "...days of the Cold War, and concerns civil rights laws." "Welcome both of you," "Svavar and Björgvin." " Thank you." "Svavar, I'll start with you." "How long has this work been going on?" "I must admit." "I have no idea." "What do you mean?" "It's under your jurisdiction." "I had never heard this mentioned until last night when it surfaced." "But I do know that the honourable minister of justice sitting here has known of this for a long time, and I'm referring to a conversation we had this morning in his office." "What conversation?" " That's not correct Svavar, and you know it." "I've heard you in your interviews today Björgvin, where you've tried to drag my name into this, but the matters of the fact are..." " Listen to me." "Svavar." "Let him finish." "The matters of the fact are that I've never had any idea about what this National Security Unit does, since I've constantly been kept in the dark by you and others." "Björgvin, these are serious accusations..." " This is absurd." "You are assistant head chief of the capital area police department." "Excellent. thanks." "Yes." "Yes." "Yes, goodbye mom." "Yes, yeap." "Bye" "Well kids." "Grandma will babysit you tonight." "Hurray." "Svavar?" " Yes?" "It's good to clean the makeup from your face with this." "You don't want to go home all made up?" "I'm not going home." "I'm going back to the station, where I'm going to talk privately, with Leifur Jónsson" "He says he's directly under your supervision." "Couldn't it be that Steinar left the party and came right back?" "Yes, but then he must have gone home to change clothes." "He was all dirty." "People would have noticed had he suddenly shown up in new clothes." "We found five sets of identical suits in his closet." "Five sets?" "It fits the time frame." "He's in there for 10 minutes and then leaves." "Guðni, how long does it take you to change clothes?" "Two minutes." "OK, let's assume Steinar needs a little more time." "Let her in." "She's here." "I'll go get her." "Who's here?" "I don't know." "Thank you." "You've got some information regarding Birgitta Vésteinsdóttir." "Yes, I didn't think about it until just now, when I saw all the photos of her in the media, but I lent her my mobile at Broadway." "OK, what time do you think that was?" "It was maybe 12:30." "Can you see which number was dialled?" "I think it's here somewhere." "The number she dialled." "Yes." "There." "Here you go." "Is that it?" "861-1196." "Yes. that's it." "At 00:35 Saturday night." "I need to know." "who has the number 861-1196." "Thanks for the info." "OK, thank you very much." "But we need to keep the phone until tomorrow if you don't mind." "That woman I just spoke to, lent Birgitta her phone at 00:35 Saturday night." "And who do you think she called?" "I don't know." "Who?" "María Dís Sigurðardóttir" "Hello?" "Help!" "Is someone there?" "I need help." "Hello?" "Call an ambulance." "I'll come with you." "Damn it." "I was driving the legal limit, guys." "Leifur Jónsson?" " Yes." "We've been asked to escort you to questioning in Reykjavík." "Please step out of the car." "What's this bloody nonsense?" "You can't just arrest people as you see fit?" "Someone pressed charges to civil rights, and I'm bound to follow that." "Those charges weren't on your desk yesterday." "No, it came this morning." "Which means you had no right to arrest that man." "To summon him for questioning, yes." "And to prevent him from leaving the country." "Those charges also apply to you." "I can testify in court that I knew nothing about this case." "That something you can't do." "Unless you start lying like on TV yesterday." "You won't get away with it this time." "She gave birth 04:30 this morning." "How many weeks pregnant was she?" "37." " And the baby's OK?" "It was a boy." "I want to ask you, not to take too long." "No no, we just have a few questions." "Hi." " Hi." "I'm glad to hear everything went well and the boy is OK." "We won't disturb you long, but we need answers to a few questions." "Could you take the baby outside in the mean time?" "Thanks." "We found this phone yesterday." "A call was placed to you, 00:25 Saturday night." "You were located at Broadway at that time." "Could I get a little peace." "Is there no limit?" "What did Birgitta want with you?" "She called me and asked me to come into the alley." "Yes?" "Just take your time." "Is it OK I record this?" "It's 10:13." "Thursday, May 14th." "We talking with María Dís Sigurðardóttir." "Present are Katrín Reynisdóttir and Árni Eysteinsson." "Birgitta called?" "And then what?" "She asked me to come into the alley." "Who?" " Birgitta." "Birgitta Vésteinsdóttir" " Yes." "And then what?" "And I did so." "That's when I saw her." "where she had wrapped herself around Steinar." "María." "María." "Let's not lose our temper." "I just couldn't control myself." "What did you do?" "I had the award in my hand, and I hit her in the head." "María." "María." "Come here." "What have I done?" "Just go back inside." "Is she dead?" "I think so." "María, listen to me." "What should I do?" "I'll handle this." " OK." "Go back inside." "I'll take this." "I'll handle this." "Go back inside." "pretend like nothings wrong," "If someone asks for me, say I'm in the bathroom or something." "Don't say I'm gone." "OK?" "Go back inside." "And did you go back inside?" "Yes." "And Steinar drove off with Birgitta?" "Yes." "I killed her." "I didn't mean to." "I just..." "I just couldn't handle this." "Poor girl, that all I can say." "Yes." "What do you think Guðni?" "Is everything all clear now?" "It's all there." "Open and shut case." "The results from the autopsy are in." "Birgitta drowned." "Jesus." " He drowned her." "That's not for sure." "Maybe Steinar didn't know she was alive when he threw her in." "What difference does that make?" "It makes all the difference in this case." "Unintentional manslaughter or a cold blooded murder." "Shouldn't I just try to wake up the bastard?" "No, we'll do it by the book." "Stefán." "It's OK." "It's just a small pain." "Stefán, are you taking your medication?" "Árni." "What do you mean?" "It will pass." " Steinar is awake." "Go and talk to him." "What was that all about with Stefán?" "It's just the pressure." "He'll push through." "Hi." "We need to talk to Steinar." " Unfortunately, that's impossible." "María is in there, along with a police woman and a new born baby." "Would you please..." "How do you do?" " What are you doing here?" "Hello Steinar." "I'm Katrín. from the police investigative department." "I'm sorry, this isn't a good time." "The patient needs some rest." "Just a few questions." "Be quick." "In private." "I think he's hungry." "Then don't you want to breastfeed him?" "You're not going to regret this Svavar." "I'll give him some special treatment." "You just do what has to be done, my friend." "My pleasure." "Hello." "Leifur." "How do you like your cell?" "I have exactly nothing to say to you." "I'm afraid you won't get away with that for long, my boy." "Why did you go with Birgitta into the alley?" "She wanted to say a few word to me." "She's been all messed up since she quit the company." "She was insisting she owned a part of the marketing prize I just won." "You could never have done this without me." "No." " What?" "You had nothing to do with that idea." "No, exactly." "But that doesn't matter since I own the software." "I own the rights." "I own the company." "You've gotten your payment." "I know Maria wasn't going to going to kill her." "She just snapped when she saw me and Birgitta together." "I don't know why she suddenly appeared there." "She saw us and..." "I sent María back inside and... drove away with Birgitta." "In her car?" "Why her car?" "She had they keys in her purse." "You were probably going to take her somewhere else than the emergency room since you took her car." "I wasn't thinking clearly." "I swear, the first thing that I thought after María hit her. was to call 112." "Then I decided..." "I decided it would be faster to get her in the car and drive her myself, to the ER." "When I put her in the back seat, I saw it." "I saw she was dead." "Then something just snapped in my mind." "What did you do then?" "At first I was just going to leave her somewhere where she would be found quickly." "Just somewhere away from Broadway, you understand." "Then I wanted to go further." "Just somewhere out of town." "I was half way through the tunnel when I remembered the toll booth on the other end." "That's when I saw the refinery." "When I saw the door was unlocked." "I decided to get rid of here right there." "What did you do next?" "Went back to Broadway." "Directly?" "No, I went home to change clothes." "Can I maybe ask what you ate?" "What I ate?" "When?" "That night Birgitta died." "Me and María went out to dinner." " Where?" "Some seafood place." "Sjávarkjallarinn." "What did you eat?" "Just some combo." "Did it contain corn maize?" "No." "The autopsy revealed that Birgitta drowned." "Drowned?" "No." "That can't be." "That can't be." "I was sure María had that Birgitta was dead." "The recorder is still rolling." "Someone threw up, by the refinery." "Someone who had eaten corn maize." "We first though it was the person who threw her in. but now we know that it was Birgitta who threw up." "She had eaten corn maize." "I've said all that I have to say." "Steinar?" "You know it's best for you to confess right now." "I was coughing blood." " Yes." "I think we should say that enough." "I'm sorry." "I'm sorry, but we're in a delicate position in the interrogation." "We're also in a delicate situation." "This is the infirmary." "We can only allow minimal provocation." "The patient is still in critical condition." "Yes." "Yes." "OK." "I'll be there." "I'm going to the hospital." "You called and here I am." "Are you the one obstructing justice?" "No, I'm protecting a patient in critical condition." "We're just going to talk to him again." " That's unrecommended." "You must understand that man is in..." " That man is a murderer." "He's just moments from confessing." "Try to show this some understanding." "It is our duty here to stand watch..." " Steinar Ísfeld didn't show his ex-girlfriend much understanding when he drowned her." "Continue." "Then what did you do?" "When I had gotten her to the edge," "I heard her cough." "She opened her eyes." "And threw up." "I didn't think about that." "At first I was just going to take her back to the car." "Then I just saw this garbage." "I remembered what I thought in the car, on my way out of town." "this feeling of freedom, to be rid of her." "rid of all her damn trouble." "There she was, crawling around like some insect." "I just had to throw her in there." "The time is 15:20." "The interrogation is over." "Are you done?" "Yes." "María, I have to talk to you." "I got to tell you something." "Could we use the sitting room?" "No." "Can't you just tell me right here." "What's going on here." "I still miss him." "Yes, you knew each other of course." "We were very close friends and coworkers." "You have at least one thing in common." "Really, what?" "He always had his resignation papers in his back pocket." "Well." "You'll handle this now." "Katrín will take over and I won't be back for two weeks." "Are you so sure about that?" "I can promise that." "Goodbye." "Just imagine that guy, having his pregnant wife thinking she's a murderer." "What a lowlife." "God damn it." "you're maybe not so hopeless after all, Katla." "Wow, a compliment." "A genius, that's what you are." "I'm not thinking about getting a car any more." "Árni, you can get a ride with me anytime." "Anytime?" "You on the other hand, are a total waste of space." "Thanks Guðni, you're great." "Well excuse me, but what are you doing here." "Who's at home babysitting?" "Mom." " Yes, of course." "Doesn't she just want to adopt our kids?" "Listen girlfriend?" " Yes, friend." "What?" "I didn't know where you were." "At work, like always." "Guys, I'm going home." "I'm not drinking." "I'm driving." "Then come home with me." "I'm the guys designated driver tonight." "See you." "Bring a double whiskey for the boy." "He's mending a broken heart." "Turn up the TV." "... minister of justice is not going to resign." "He commented on it at the press conference which was held at the ministry of justice a few moments ago." "Don't you also have some political accountability?" "I can't be accountable for everything my subordinates chose to do." "What a scumbag." "Leaves Leifur behind in the dirt." "dump everything on the little guy, that's what they do these lousy politicians." "Let's get drunk." "Cheers." " Cheers." "That's all for now." "I have nothing further to comment." "I thank you for coming down here." "Thank you." "Who the bloody hell cares?"
