"PREVIOUSLY ON ANNA PIHL" "I've been with someone else." " Martin and I broke up." " No." "I don't know how to tell Mikkel." " Mikkel." " No." " I have sweets." " You can't lie." "Don't you have to do your hair for the school party?" " What have you done?" " Some had too much to drink." " We found pills, too." " Did you take pills?" "It's the negotiator." " You think you can kill people." " Look at yourself." " Isn't it a bit early?" " It's Mads' birthday in prison." " Congratulations, Mads." " Dad's gift to everybody." "Would you like these?" "Thanks." " How can you serve at home?" " You can serve with your family." " Won't we accept such an offer?" " No, don't..." " You're kidding." " Just until he gets his own flat." "You can't save everyone." " Rich, huh?" " Software and property." "He's worth two billion." "The hostage is an only child?" " Who'll make the first contact?" " I will." "We have to get in as soon as possible and calm things down." "We're from Andersen's Cleaning." " It must be a mistake." " We're negotiators from the police." " Mark Engberg." " Anna Pihl." "You can't be here." "Thanks." "I've asked for a briefing because of a potentially serious case." "Alexander Borch Vestergaard took the train after school." "He cycles towards his home." "The kidnappers probably stop him." "At 4.00 p.m. Henrik Borch Vestergaard gets a call from Alexander's phone." "A man says Alexander will be killed if they go to the police." "Their lawyer suggests they go to the police but they won't." "The lawyer calls us, and the negotiators have visited the parents." "But without success." "Anna will try again this afternoon." "We're disguised in case the house is under surveillance." "The kidnappers will probably demand a large ransom for Alexander." "Everything depends on establishing a dialogue with the parents." " Pihl is working as a negotiator." " I want to be a negotiator, too." "We have a warning about some new pills." "Claus?" "Thanks." "It's these pale green devils." "They look innocent, but are extremely dangerous." "They're called Kamikaze." "They're strongly stimulating the central nervous system." "You're not influenced by alcohol when you take them." "Pass them on." " Alcohol poisoning is a big risk." " What happens?" "They can drink heavily, but when the pills wear off   the body can't take the alcohol." "Several have been stomach pumped,   and a 16-year-old boy was revived Friday." " He'd drunk a bottle of vodka." " Insane." " Who sells this stuff?" " All sorts of people." "They give away the first pill in the clubs." " They sell them at schools, too." " Which schools?" "We've seized pills at Sjællandsgade School, " " Jagtvejen School, Bellahoj School and Kirkebjerg School." "My kids go to Kirkebjerg School." "If you run into the pills or hear something, let us know." "That's all." "Let's roll." "Claus?" "Did you get the dealers at Kirkebjerg School?" "We don't know who's dealing where." "They're selling this crap all over,   so they have to learn to stay away from it." "I just wanted to check if you're picking up Mikkel." "That was the plan." "Is something wrong?" "No, I just..." "Take care of him and say hi." " Okay." "Bye." " Bye." " It's late." " I'm sorry, it's due to illness." " Who's the sender?" " Copenhagen Police Department." "We want to help you find Alexander." "I know you're afraid." "You'll set the pace, but we'd like to talk to you." "I've just received a new message." "Come in half an hour." " No police cars or uniforms." " Thanks." "My wife will be here in an hour." "She's seeing her psychologist." "If we know how they contact you, we can try to trace the calls." "Exactly." "Look at this." "Alexander is a delicate boy." " Did they write anything?" " They're demanding 20 million kroner." "If we contact the police, he'll die." " 20 million?" " I'm surprised it isn't more." " They must know what we're worth." " Exactly." "That doesn't necessarily mean it's their final demand." "Would it be possible to see Alexander's room?" "Yes." "Upstairs to the right." " Can I see this?" " Of course." " You received it on your mobile?" " Yes." "We understand your fear and we'll stay in the background." "Your home phones and mobiles will be tapped." "Can you tell us about Alexander?" " Alexander is a fragile boy." " I don't know about that." "He's doing fine." " These years are difficult." " In what way?" "He can be defiant and emotional." " That's normal for that age." " I don't recognize this at all." "Does he have new friends or go new places?" "No." "I think he has nice friends." "They like role-playing in the forest." "Then he's completely different to how he is in school." "How?" "In school he's quieter." "How will this help the police?" "We're just trying to help him." "I have to ask, and it may be unpleasant,   but could Alexander have planned this himself?" "I don't understand." "Sometimes children do this kind of thing to get some attention." " That doesn't have to be the case." " We're looking at all possibilities." "No!" "This is a case for you, but it's our son." "Excuse me." "We'll wait for five minutes." "This is where you're hiding with your secret papers." "What are you doing?" " It's secret." "I can't tell." " No." "It's a kidnapping of a 14-year-old boy." " I didn't think they did that here." " We're certainly very bad at it." "The mother threw us out when we suggested the boy had planned it." "I wouldn't be surprised." "14-year-olds are crazy." "Tobias is unbelievably annoying." "If he's out, I'm scared." "If he's home, he's so annoying I feel like throwing him out." " Can you come for Mikkel's birthday?" " Yes." "Cille is looking forward to it." "This was in Martin's office." "Ole wanted you to look at it, even though I said you wouldn't." " I can just throw it out." " Let me see." "Station Bellahoj." " Have you heard from Martin?" " No." "I didn't expect to, either." " What does Mikkel say?" " He misses him, too." "But he pretends to be brave." "I can't stand it." " What does he want?" " Only a magic set, which I've bought." "Well, he can have a pony." " He'd like that." " It's going to be in your room." " See you." " Bye." ""The right cheek was swollen like a bun that..."" ""The right cheek was swollen like a bun that had risen too long."" " You already read that." " Yes, I know." "Go to sleep now so you're ready for your birthday tomorrow." "Will I get the magic set?" " What are you talking about?" " The magic set." "I have no idea what you're talking about." "We'll see." "But you have to sleep now." "I'll turn out the light." " The door has to be ajar." " Yes, I promise." "See you tomorrow morning." "Good morning." "I've invited Anders Lauge, Chief Inspector, Intelligence." "There may be international connections to the case." "The Borchs have interests abroad and someone may wish to harm them." "This is the new leader of the SWAT team, Per Willemoes." "The kidnappers only communicate by text from Alexander's mobile." "They know they can be traced because they turn the phone off." " They may be professional." " How is the communication?" "Good with the father, but the mother won't talk to us." " Anna has the best contact." " You'll deal with sensitive matters." " Who could have done it?" " We're not used to cases like this." " We're looking at all possibilities." " The boy may have done it himself." "Lack of care and need of attention." "We know these cases from abroad." " But the father isn't the type." " The mother is very conservative." "One parent failing is enough." "They both refused to believe that Alexander had planned it." "If the boy did it, it would be nice to have it cleared up." "Yes." "It's Henrik Borch." "This is Anna Pihl." " They received a new message." " Get them in here." "We'll come get you." "Can I please go home?" "Can I please go home now?" ""Have the money ready in 200 euro notes." "Alexander's life depends on your cooperation."" "We've asked the bank to get the money ready." " You want to pay?" " The only thing we want is to have Xander back." "So we'd like to ask you not to do anything at all." "Our only aim is to get your son back unharmed." "But we have to rule out some possibilities." "Anna." "I know you're very affected by the situation,   and you've been asked this earlier, but both films only show Alexander, and have been taken with his phone." "He didn't do it himself." "He wouldn't do that." "No." "Technically..." "Alexander couldn't write those messages." " Sometimes you're surprised..." " Listen to me!" "Xander can't write messages like that." "He's extremely dyslexic." "He can't even write his own name." "I knew it was a mistake to involve the police, and it ends right now." "I told you." "They answered!" " Don't get emotional." " Was that necessary?" " You're not their psychologist." " I know that." "She's all right." "Hi." "Hi, honey." " Hi, honey." " Could you please knock?" "That party last week, when Claes was stomach pumped." " Do you know if he'd taken anything?" " I have no idea." "Have you heard about some pale green pills called Kamikaze?" " Have you ever taken anything?" " No, mum, I haven't." " Where did Claes get that pill?" " He probably got it for free." " Stop." " You're not on duty." " Those pills are really dangerous." " They all are." "This is serious." "A boy almost died from it." " Tell me where Claes got the pills." " A guy called Jimmy with a red cap." "Okay." "Does he go to your school?" "He comes to the parties." "Sometimes he's just outside." "He stands outside and deals?" " Yes." " On weekdays?" "Jesus Christ." " Can I play now?" " Yes, you can." "We're going to Mikkel's birthday in a minute." "Do I have to?" "Can't I stay at home?" "Is it a bit too childish?" "Okay." "You can stay home with dad, then." " I'll just take Cille." " Thanks." "Hi." "Is there a birthday boy who wants a present?" "Hi." " Congratulations." " Magic set, magic set, magic set!" " You don't know if that's it." " No." " Hey." " Hi." " What a mess." " You've started working late." "I said, you've started working late." "I'm busy, but maybe that's good." "Then I don't think of Martin." "It's dangerous to become dependent on your job." "Yes, you should know." "I hear you're going to meetings with the big shots." " Hey." "Is it the right one?" " Yes." " Okay." "Is Jan here?" " No, he's getting custard." "When will Signe come?" "She had a meeting with her thesis supervisor." " Cool." "The coin which disappears." " Is that a trick?" "Her thesis supervisor?" "When is Mads starting to serve here?" "Next week, and you're changing the subject." " Did you quarrel?" " Is this an interrogation?" "Yes, it is." "She's met someone else." "I've been away a lot with the book." "He's called Theo and plays the bass." "She met him at a concert." "It just went "ding", she said." "Hell, Anna, I'm 32 years older than her." "It was doomed to fail." "We knew that." "But you miss her." "Welcome to the club." "Ding." "it's Mikkel's birthday today is the day it's Mikkel's birthday today is the day listen how we'll all..." "I've had my turn." "...how Peter's going to play listen how Peter's going to play" " Your ex is a great dancer." " You're great." " Want to see a magic trick?" " Magic!" "I need 20 kroner." " Be careful." "It's my last one." " Rich Granddad." "Here you are." "Abrakadabra, now the coin is gone." " What?" " Fuck!" "No, Cille, don't." "We've talked about it." "Drop that tone." " Are the buns still in the oven, Jan?" " Fuck!" "Sorry!" " Who is it?" "Did you invite anyone?" " Is it your girlfriend?" "Hi." "Hello." " Do you have a minute?" " Yes." "It's my son's birthday." " Maybe we can do it..." " Fine." "Yes?" "In my family we handle things ourselves." "I don't know if you can understand that." "Just remember that the police have a lot of good people." "The money doesn't matter." "So I'd like to ask you..." "If it were your son would you involve the police at all?" "I'd wish that the people who'd kidnapped him were put on trial." "And if it could cost him his life?" " If you tell us..." " Would you?" "No." "Nothing's worth that." "If you ask the police only to observe, we'll do it." "Do you promise?" "Yes." "My husband said you're trustworthy." "He could sense it." "Do you promise to let us know when they contact you again?" "Yes." " Mum, you have to see a trick." " Yes, in a minute." " Congratulations." " Thanks." "I made a coin disappear." "I'm really excited about seeing it." "I'll be right there." "What a cute boy." " Okay." "Thanks." " You're welcome." "Bye." "He certainly took his time." "He's completely strung out." "He also made 120 kroner in coins disappear." " Are you leaving?" " Yes." "I've had such a pleasant time." "Thanks for helping." " Bye, Peter." " Thanks." "Well..." "I'm sorry about Martin." " Yes, it was really bad, but..." " Well..." " Gry and I are having problems, too." " Okay." "Yes." "By the way, I almost forgot." "Mikala and Cille said bye and thanks for a very pleasant evening." " Thanks for a very pleasant evening." " Thank you." " It was great you were here." " Yes, it was great." "What the hell are you doing?" "I don't really know." "I guess I became a bit nostalgic." "Sorry." " See you, Jan." " Bye." " They've all left." " Great to have children together." "Tell me about it." "Therese and I have quarrelled about our daughter's name." "She wants to call her Vega." "I'm not naming her after a music venue." " Jan..." " What would be next?" "Crazy Daisy?" "Crazy Daisy Bottger." "Thousands of people would come by." ""I thought this was Crazy Daisy."" " Drunk people all over." " Mikkel's asleep." " Anna." " It's from the hospital." "Your dad's been admitted." "Dad..." " What happened?" " A declaration of love from a fan." "The idiot gets my autograph and knocks me down as I'm getting in the car." "What's going on?" "Why didn't you call?" " I only just heard." " I wasn't dying." "You'll never stop pretending to be brave." "I've been calling Signe all night to make her come." "Pathetic, huh?" " I don't know." "Did she come?" " No, she's probably with Theo." "Did you report it?" "It's assault, dad." "They'll never find him." "They'll send some greenhorn who'll teach me   about the risk of appearing on TV." "Dad..." "Go to work." "There's no reason to spend time on an old fool like me." "Well, maybe you say so." " I love you." " Go on." " Where are you going?" " Just a minute." " Yes?" " Hi, Claus." "I think I know who's pushing on Kirkebjerg School." " Do you have a name?" " Jimmy." "He wears a red cap." "We know him." "A real bastard." " But he never carries anything." " That can't be right." "I mean it." "We've checked him." "He gets the drugs in small amounts." "We'll never bust him." "My son was at a school party where a friend got a pill off Jimmy." " Did they drink?" " Not much, according to Tobias." " That won't hold in court." " Then find something which will." "We don't have people to cover a little street dealer like him." "I'll put in your information but I can't promise anything." "That's not good enough." "What am I supposed to tell the other parents?" "That they should enter politics." "It's a question of resources." "Yes?" " Hey." "There's briefing now." " That's right." " Eva?" " Yes." "My dad was attacked yesterday and is in the hospital." "It's not serious but do you have time to talk to him?" "He's afraid they'll send some student constable." "He's quite the prima donna." " I'll talk to him." " Thanks." "The hand over..." "What's this?" "The big shots run the show now." "Is this our fifth time at Kirkebjerg School?" "Are we here because you're a mum or a constable?" "The police have to stop pushers." "You can't do private patrols." "If someone is dealing drugs to kids, the police have to stop it, right?" " Are you a constable or what?" " Does he wear a red cap?" "That might be him." "Hey, you with the red cap." "Are you Jimmy?" " I want to talk to you." " Is it illegal to walk the streets?" " It depends on what you carry." " What are you talking about?" "Someone's selling pills here." "He looks just like you." "I don't know anything." "Then you won't mind emptying your pockets." " What was that?" " Calm down." "He threw something into the sewer." "No, I didn't." "Do you want me to report you?" "Go on." "I know who you are." "You're Tobias' mum, right?" "If I see you at this school again, you'll go to the station!" "And then what?" "What are you going to do?" "Say hi to him." "Don't do that." "And don't tell me to calm down." "It's now. 25 minutes ago, Henrik Borch got this message:" "Three million in 200 euro notes in a yellow North Face sports bag." "He has to stand in front of Svanemollen Station at 12.30 p.m." "Alexander will die, if the instructions aren't followed." "The hand over will take place here." "We need surveillance here   and a SWAT team here and here." "Excuse me." "Aren't we only observing?" "Yes, but when we believe   that the kidnappers will use 20 million to finance terror in Europe,   we won't let them get away." "We might gain some time by stating that it takes time to get the money." "We knew the amount yesterday." "The parents are panicking." "We risk losing contact." "I agree." "Let's stick to the schedule and do what they say." "But someone from the SWAT team has to hand over the money." "Yes." "I'll try to persuade them." "I trust your persuasive powers." "We'll leave in five minutes, and our guy will hand over the money." " But he doesn't look like Henrik?" " They'll only focus on the money." "This won't work." "We won't agree to this." " Let's stick to the plan." " I want to hand over the money." "Alexander has to recognize me." " That's a bad idea." " That's how it's going to be." "Just a minute." " Does he know what we've arranged?" " No, and I can't tell him, can I?" "Am I going to get him ready?" "We have two minutes." "Yes, do that." "Let's get you ready." "No patrols at Svanemǿllen Station when the hand over takes place." "I repeat:" "No patrols at Svanemǿllen Station." "Go stand at the mailbox." "We have people around you." "Hey?" " Breathe." " Yes." "No matter what happens, do what they say." " Focus on getting Alexander." " Okay." "It's time to go." " What's going on?" " We have to go to Amager Beach Park." "Mark, they've changed the place to Amager Beach Park." "A black Volvo driving towards Amager Beach Park can't be stopped." "We're on Center Boulevard heading towards Amager Beach Park." "Roger." "A patrol car is on its way." "Over and out." " Fuck." " What is it?" " Give us the money!" " Where's Alexander?" " Give us the money!" " Where's Alexander?" " Dad!" " Xander!" " Dad!" " We'll get you home!" "Give us the money or you won't get Alexander!" "Come on!" "Give me the money!" "Closer!" "Closer!" "Come on!" " Fuck, it's the police!" " They tricked us!" "There's a patrol car behind us." "Get rid of it." "Damn it!" "There's a patrol car behind us." "What the hell are they doing?" " It's them." " Just talk to them." "No pressure." " Henrik Borch." " Are you with the police?" " Yes." " I want to talk to them now." " Anna Pihl, negotiator." " Borch was supposed to be alone." "We got rid of the police car." "We want to cooperate, okay?" "Follow us." "If we see more police, we'll kill Alexander." "Where are they going?" " They're heading towards Sweden." " Damn it." "It's Anna." "The target is heading towards Sweden and we're following." "What's the plan, Anna?" "TO BE CONTINUED" "Subtitles:" "Louise Munk Alminde Scandinavian Text Service 2010"
