"Hello." "Have we received more boxes?" "Yes." "Is it the same as before?" "Good!" "You've done a good job." "Is it good?" "Have you come a long way?" "This I like." "But we couldn't..." "Do you know what time it is?" "No, I do now." "Where have you been?" "Have you been to see her?" "Yikes, you look awful." "Switch on." "Can you help me?" "So this, I must to do anyway?" "Watch for the hair." "So..." "What is it?" "Nothing." "Hello." "Want to come over for a meal and a glass of wine?" "There was so much chicken, so..." "You, I sit a bit in the middle of something that I should finish." "I was thinking just a little while." "You will eat well at least?" "I don't think so." "It was a gamble." "The Board, or "boards" as we say in English and on the Internet." "Welcome." "Yes, yes." "Exactly." "Yes, I understand." "Sure." "Do you want to stay in the car?" "I'll go." "No, it's quiet." "Manfred Star, 41 years." "This evening's host." "He had a business dinner." "The guests are German customers." "We don't know if it was one of the guests..." "Here, I think someone was waiting for him." "So he sneaks up behind and cuts his throat." "He would take the call outside in order not to disrupt our guests." "After ten minutes I thought it was strange that he missing." "Then I went out to fetch him." "Do you know who he spoke with?" "No." "Had he any enemies?" "Nobody that I know." "How long have you been married?" "A long time." "Some things in our marriage might not be so pleasant." "I would appreciate it, if you handled it with a little discretion." "Holy shit, what a fucking day." "Mm." "Home and sleep." "How are you?" "Good." "It's alright, Pontus." "See you tomorrow, then." "Good night." "I checked Manfred Star's mobile." "He had frequent contact with a woman on the board." "Anna." "He left, or?" "Their marriage was probably not great." "No, I can sense that." "It is our expertise." "You'll check her out, then." "And maybe dinner another time, huh?" "Can you come in and shut the door?" "I'm the prosecutor and you're the investigator." "Right?" "Sure." "OK." "I'll check Anna, then." "She is in here." "You wait here." "Kurt Wallander." "Anna Kowalski." "You had a relationship with Manfred." "Did your husband know?" "Who is your husband?" "Jan Kowalski." "He works hard." "He is honest." "But something must not be good if you were unfaithful." "He drinks?" "He hurts you?" "He works here on the board?" "No, not anymore." "He works in construction in Stockholm." "Manfred helped him." "That must have suited Manfred." "He has you for himself." "Why does an employer have a relationship with an employee?" "Did you get any benefits... ?" "That I could understand." "This job isn't one you'd want for life?" "Did you get paid?" "A little money to send home to mom and dad?" "Or did he promise you a permanent work permit?" "I was in love with him, and he was in love with me." "Isabelle?" "You do not forget, huh?" "Debriefing." "Go ahead and get on." "To work Kurt Wallander?" "Yes." "Here is where he works, Kurt Wallander." "Anna..." "She's Polish, you know?" "She came and told me one thing that she did not dare tell you." "Her husband..." "He came to her on the day that Manfred was murdered." "He talked to Manfred about something." "Since then he's missing." "Did she say what they talked about?" "He wanted to come back to the Board." "He was drunk and aggressive as well." "He could be quite violent." "With your knowledge of Manfred..." "How would he handle that?" "In view of his relationship with Anna?" "I don't know." "Forgive me for asking, but you seem pretty indifferent to..." "That your husband had a relationship on the side." "We were married for 17 years, The last few years were just an act." "But we ran a business together, and we did alright." "And yourself?" "What?" "Well, I've also my needs." "Why didn't you divorce?" "We had no prenuptial agreement." "I'm the fourth generation on the Star Board." "I love my Musteri." "In a divorce I'd only get half." "That could force a sale of the Board." "You realize you just gave yourself a strong motive for murder?" "Yes, it is possible." "But it's obviously not me." "Catherine?" "We have a suspect in Manfred's murder." "Jan Kowalski." "A jealous drama." "His wife was having an affair with Manfred." "Where is he now?" "He disappeared on the murder date." "Search for him." "Yes." "Intermediate traumas of the variety you've been through don't differ significantly from other traumas." "In the sense that the subject himself may not see it as a trauma." "I don't repress that I've been shot." "But I'm alright." "It's just as serious even if you survive." "How is it with you?" "Well..." "Hello." "How did it go?" "I don't know how to talk about it." "I don't think about it." "What about us are?" "I think about it." "5-84 at Singles Cottage road." "Hire car Singles Cottage road 17th." "2-4-50, we'll take it." "End." "Come on." "Hi." "It is in there." "Are you here?" "Yes, that's me." "You can wait out that long." "Do you have gloves?" "You can take mine." "Jan Kowalski." "Call Kurt." "Yes, it was Manfred blood." "Found the murder weapon?" "No." "There's no blood on his clothes?" "Very little." "What do you think?" "He had a motive." "Suicide was the only way out." "Hello." "Hello." "Dinner?" "Right." "I also decided not to stay at home." "How's it going?" "I'm not in service right now." "You do not know where he is?" "It is a bit difficult to think of something else." "Jan Kowalski is dead.-What?" "How?" "But he may be the culprit?" "I can not answer." "Do you like your job?" "Yes, very." "Don't you get jaded by all the blood and misery?" "Yes, you're good at what you do." "How do you know?" "I have read up on you a bit." "I'll go back to..." "Did you have fun yesterday?" "Save dinner with Claire Star until the investigation is complete." "I saw you at the restaurant." "She was there with some others." "In addition, the investigation is complete." "The criminal proceedings are at your table." "What the hell... ?" "That's burglary!" "Stefan." "Speak after the beep." "Stefan, it's mom." "We are at the store." "There have been break-ins." "Benjamin?" "Benjamin?" "Benjamin!" "Benjamin!" "Hello." "The victim's name:" "Benjamin Wilkes." "There are two things." "This was done with great determination." "Long knife." "The first blow went straight through the body." "The other  Literally tore out the throat." "It's quite similar to the former." "Could it be the same killer?" "Yes..." "It is not impossible." "Could someone have copied the first murder by by pure chance?" "I don't believe in chance." "Stefan Wilkes?" "Stefan?" "Where's Mom?" "In Hospital." "She is in shock." "We can drive you there if you want." "I did not get hold of her." "I did not arrive." "Why the hell did I not go there?" "She just said something about a burglary." "I wanted to finish here first." "I stood in the middle of a mass..." "You think their was somebody who was waiting?" "There were no rough sleepers who broke into and became frightened?" "Not that we can see." "Do you know someone who did not like your dad?" "It can be something old." "What the hell is this?" "First Manfred, now dad." "Manfred Star?" "Did you know him?" "He was here sometimes." "He knew my father." "According to Nyberg, it's not the same knife, but the murderer may well be the same." "We have blood and shoe prints of Jan, so he probably murdered Mr." "It is possible that there is a connection between the murder" "But so far I think we are investigating this." "Wilkes was a psychologist before he opened the restaurant with his son." "Oh, yeah..." "He knew the family Star." "Claire Star?" "Thank you." "It can not be a coincidence." "What if I stand in line?" "What was your relationship to Benjamin Wilkes?" "Yes..." "He was an old friend of my father." "One among many." "He was here during a period when it was not around." "We had to cancel quite a lot... ." "Then people felt bad, and Benjamin took care of some of them." "Just how involved were you in this with the redundancies?" "It was Manfred who did it." "But people were disappointed in me." "I've known many of them since I was a child." "Do I get the names of those who had to go?" "Course." "Thank you." "And if we judge that there is a threat and you will get protection." "Here is a list of redundant from the Board." "Check the criminal record." "Probing for you all in the murder of Brad?" "How closely did you watch Claire Star?" "Enough." "I do not think so." "She has motive, have you forgotten that?" "What is it I have missed?" "What you seem irritated." "I'm not annoyed." "What did I miss?" "Have you read the report of Nyberg Kowalski's suicide?" "No." "I have not had time." "Why not then, if I may ask?" "He stands on a chair and hangs himself." "Had he planned it before he killed Manfred, or not?" "What does it..." "Is it a suicide?" "Here." "Egon Dalberg." "He harassed the board after he was let go." "In the end he got a restraining order." "We look up to him." "And Ylva Gustafson." "She sued the Board several times at the European Court." "Wallander might check." "Take the list." "I show the floor late." "Let's begin with the first floor." "Here's Hall of Knights." "We have a man on site around the clock." "It feels good." "But you keep you away when it will be customers?" "Yes, absolutely." "Fine." "Exactly where is the bedroom." "Hello." "We would like to talk to Egon Dalberg." "Is he here?" "He grew up there." "He worked on the board that he was 14 years" "Right up until all that happened a year ago." "He never recovered." "He continued to go to work." "You have probably heard." "He tried to convince himself that well the whole thing was  some kind of mistake." "Then he was just there..." "He drank himself to death." "Thanks." "I beg your pardon!" "There's no danger." "Was he depressed?" "No, he was ashamed." "He thought he was worthless, with all these Poles abount." "Anyway, he is gone." "When did he die?" "About three months ago." "Do you know Benjamin Wilkes?" "The psychologist those laid-off got to talk to." "Well..." "Egon went there a few times." "Claire paid." "She had a bad conscience." "They'd known each other forever." "Sorry." "He has been murdered." "It was certainly not Egon." "No." "Can I buy you a cup of coffee?" "It's just freshly brewed." "We have to go." "And noise is in the oven." "Thank you for your help." "Please, stay a while." "Another time, perhaps." "Thank you." "The rope Manfred used." "Is it new?" "Yes, in all cases, unused." "It was cut here." "Where are the rest?" "I do not know." "But if he tied it, wouldn't there be fibers on his hands?" "Yes, but there's none." "If he'd put up the rope after the murder, we would've found blood on it." "He may have washed his hands." "So he attached the rope, drunk, went to the Board and killed Manfred." "Then he came back and hung himself." "Yes..." "Hi." "Is that dinner again?" "I will not harass you anymore." "You were interested in what Nyberg thinks about this." "He claims that" "Kowalski planned his suicide before he murdered Manfred." "You seem very unsure it." "If Jan was jealous, and he is prepared to kill himself" "Why, did he leave nothing behind?" "No note?" "Yes, but..." "murders were carried out in the same way." "We know that similar murders might not be connected." "The victims knew each other, and what they have in common is the board." "There must be some link." "Somebody has other than a quarrel with it." "But we continue to look up those that were made redundant." "Can you tell me what happened when you left the board?" "They discovered that Poles were cheaper." "Or" "What did you do?" "Financial Manager." "So when did you know?" "I saw everything." "They didn't need to dismiss us." "If Manfred's habits weren't so expensive." "Like luxury trips to Paris." "Mauritius." "Spoiling his little girlfriends with expensive gifts." "The books were a joke." "I brought it up with Claire." "Did you shoot yourself with that." "Then I got fired." "Then we all got it." "Some had worked there all their lives." "Who the hell takes responsibility for them?" "Then we get treated like psychos!" "But they hired a psychologist... ?" "Claire hired someone you could talk to-!" "To find out if we thought of harassing them!" "Did you do that, then?" "You went to the psychologist Benjamin Wilkes?" "Why are you interested, then?" "He was murdered yesterday morning." "My God..." "If I had wanted to kill somebody" "I'd have taken the lives of Claire and Manfred a long time ago!" "That psychologist was a sad type, he did their dirty work!" "We must ask these questions, it's nothing personal." "I want them to be accountable." "Is that so damn hard?" "I may not be on top here, but what the hell..." "Here!" "Labour Court, EU court." "Rejected, rejected, denial!" "Read it yourself." "Do it!" "What did you do yesterday?" "I'll tell you all about it." "I took care of all bills that I can't pay!" "Do you know who might be behind it?" "No." "If we have more questions, you'll hear from us." "Sure, whatever." "You must take care of yourself." "I was going to take something to drink." "You want something?" "A glass of wine?" "No." "I can't." "But coffee or something." "There is somebody in the basement!" "Wait here." "They unscrewed it the whole way." "Now we have three cars out there." "With dogs." "This is barely three feet?" "It was dark!" "Then he took hold of me." "I don't know if it was a he." "Do you have?" "You know how to get rid of that?" "Holy shit, I'm so damn tired." "Are you going home, right?" "Yes." "What about you?" "Mm." "You'll take a taxi or walk?" "I'll walk." "Which way are you heading..." "Or you're going there." "Thank you for tonight." "Thanks." "It was fun." "Mm." "Sleep well, then." "Bye." "Good night." "See you tomorrow." "Yes, we will."
