" Icelandic." "Do you come from there?" "A long time ago." "There's a gun in the transit lounge." "We don't know who has it." " It belongs to a dead cop." " Who?" "Kenneth from our station."

" Now to the High Court." " Not Sandberg." " Why?" " No request was filed to hold him." "The man's in a taxi on his way to his private jet." "What a stinker, Marie!"

"Alpha and Bravo get in position." "Await orders." "Alpha 1 received." "We're ready to move in." "Let me have another look." " It's their behaviour." " Did you hear?" " Show me the bit where they're sitting." " Decide now!" " Drinking beer?" " So what?" " Holy warriors don't drink." " Your point?" "The purser?" "He says all is calm on board." "They're not moving." "Neither do we." " What are you doing?" " Cool it." " Don't!" " I haven't seen you for a while, sweetie." "Get in." "Get in, I said!" "You arsehole." "You nearly broke my arm." " Did it hurt?" " Don't make it look so real, for my sake." " Aren't you suspended?" " On holidays." " Why the handcuffs?" " Talk, Bassem and Ibrahim." " What, for example?" " Jihad." "They wouldn't know what it means." "Shit!" "Fuck." "Are you waiting for them to open fire?" " They will if you go in now." " What, then?" " We wait." " For what?" " Should we ask the commissioner?" " No." "I have to answer this." "Hallgrim..." "She gave up when she heard you weren't coming." "Gunnar carried her in from the car." "She was so tired." "She asked..." ""Where is my little boy?"" "I said you would be here later." "Then she gave up and died." " Is Gunnar with you?" " He's sitting by her." "All her wrinkles have gone." "What's up?" "Grandma asks when you're coming." "Tell her I'll be as quick as I can." "You don't even sound sad." "Johanna..." "My mother." "Just let me..." "Just a second." " Nazim?" " Someone's tricked those two guys." "I knew it." "Yesterday they were minor crims." "Today they're off to Lanzarote." "A man at the airport gave them a parcel to deliver." " Who?" " Do you know who?" "No." "They had to deliver it to a man down there and then take the week off." " I need you here now." " Understood." "Hallgrim..." " Are you okay?" " No." "See you." " Is someone with Maja?" " What did they say?" "Everything." "She's sitting... out there." "Is someone with her and sitting with her?" "We're talking to the hostess." "They're looking after her." " Where are they sitting?" " In 7 A and 7B." "They're sitting next to Maja." "I convinced her to go on her own." "She's safe and knows nothing." "When we went to Crete she was scared of flying." "Frida..." "We have a crisis psychologist I want you to see." " No, I don't need that." " Yes, you do." "I want you to be ready when I bring Maja out." "Michael told us what happened." "No one would take offence if you went home." "We all think you should go home." "How did the killer access the transit hall?" "What's this about?" "He's duped the two guys on board and he's duping us." " Is Nazim's informant reliable?" " Yes." "Okay, we only need six men, then." "In here, here and here." " If they start shooting?" " Aren't they innocent?" "They know hijacking means life." "What if they panic?" " One man will do." " How?" " He disarms them in the cabin." " How does he get in?" " Through the cargo hold." " Okay, I've got the right man." " Mike me up." "You stand by." " No way." " There's a little girl..." " Whom you know." " I'll get ready." " I won't accept it." "You'll have to." "Everything's ready and he snatches it away right under my nose." "He arrived from St Petersburg at 7.40 this morning." "He knows full well he's being taped." "Like when he put the gun in the bag." "He wants us to see him." "I didn't think you wanted anything." " They knew each other." " Who?" " Kenneth knew his killer." " You're so clever." "Here are Kenneth's footprints on the floor." "And his fingerprints on the wall." "His murderer stood over here." "Completely relaxed, as if chatting." "Oh." "I suppose you know for how long, too." "Enough time to smoke a fag." "Under Kenneth's shoe... we found a cigarette butt similar to the one we found here." "They're Russian cigarettes." "Shouldn't you have the prints checked?" "Already done." " When?" " While you were out for coffee." "Leave the door open tonight in case Fie's cough gets worse." "You don't trust me, do you?" " Michael." " Nazim." "Hallgrim wants you on the apron." "Nazim?" "I thought you were under suspension." "Hallgrim suspended it." " He's got no authority." " Talk to him." "Where is Hallgrimsson?" " Ask the police." " I am." "I think he means Lars." " Lars, what's Hallgrimsson doing here?" " I can't tell you." " Nazim's suspended." " Oh?" "I want those two guards back." "They were pulled off." " Which plane?" " Sandberg's." " You want them off?" " No, they stay." " There may be drugs on board." " An anonymous tip." " I'll try." " Not good enough." "I haven't had time to remove them, okay?" "Tell Sandberg." "And the drug squad and the dogs." " You can do that quicker." " Yes, if I had time." "Why do today what you can put off till tomorrow?" " Is Sandberg's mum alive?" " In a nursing home." "Sure?" "I read the death notices to make sure I'm still alive." "Willkommen, bienvenue." "Welcome." "Beautiful Marie." "And Frandsen, you old crook." " I'm so happy to see you." " We missed you too." "Please tell the two sweet guys that the judge revoked my arrest so I can leave." "I don't want to drive over their tiny feet." "Stay here and face the music." "Waste of public money and my time." "Keep roaming about." "but the trap will spring some time." "Will it?" "The judge just set me free." "We've appealed to the High Court." "By then I'll have left the country" ""where the beech tree reflects itself in the blue sea"." "What about your mother?" "Mightn't she need you here?" "You didn't cook that up." "That must be Frandsen." "Am I right or am I right?" "Please ask your colleagues very nicely to leave." "I'm overdue in London." "No." "They'll ensure we can search the plane." "We got a tip about heroin." "You can't." "Yes." "Our sniffer dogs are in Jutland." "They won't arrive till tomorrow." "When you're in court." "You burnt-out moron." "Still fucking your way up the system, eh?" "He took that well." "Alpha 1, I'm going in now." " How are you armed?" " It's not necessary." "The man's mad." " "You've been tricked."" " You've been tricked." " "I'm helping you."" " I'm helping you." " Want me to go with you?" " No." "Okay, Michael." "I'll meet you outside." " Don't be afraid." " Hallgrim, I want to get off." "You've been tricked." "I'm helping you." " Give him the gun." " The gun." "I'm not armed." "I'll help you." "Give me the gun." " Give it to him." " I'll help, Bassem." "Give it to him!" "Don't be afraid, Bassem." " Give him the gun." " Give me the gun." "I'm not armed." "Please, come with me." "There's been a mistake." "You're on the wrong flight." "It's our mistake." "Please follow me." "Holsoe, we're coming out." "Hi, Maja." "My darling." " What's the date?" " The 12th." " And no maintenance?" " I pay when they're with me." "I thought the bank made a mistake." "It's the kids." " Aren't you taking them?" " You cancelled that." "Hi, Fie Mouse, it's Mum." "No, you're not going to Dad's." " Get out." " Sergei?" "Why are you here?" "Luka!" "Are you crazy?" " What's this?" " It had to be done." "And something else." "Kenneth knew his murderer." "Knew him?" "Here's the toilet." "The body was there." "We found his footprints and handprints here." "Over here stood our friend." "Mr What's-his-name." "He was totally relaxed." "They were chatting and smoking." "We found Russian cigarette butts." " You forgot the most important thing." " What?" "Kenneth's keys and his car are gone." "Put out an all-points." " Hallgrimsson?" " Yes." "You've called in Nazim Talawi..." "Frandsen, you know the Russian mafia." "What about him?" "Nazim's suspended." "Sergei Varsjinskij, old KGB man." "Is he with Sandberg?" " Sandberg's in with the Russian mafia?" " Sure is." " The bridge?" " I don't know." "You don't know?" "Check if it's closed." "Are the police transferring this case to you?" "Yes." " My application." " Oh, really?" "You come crashing in here like some cowboy..." "I want to know what warranted killing four people." " Your anger won't help." " Do I get the job?" " If you're sure." " Why else would I be here?" " I'm sorry about your mother." " Thank you." " When did she die?" " This morning." " I'm really sorry." " Thanks." " You think the airport was a disaster?" " Wasn't it?" "It could have been worse." "The words Muslim and jihad create panic." "Holsoe was ready to go." "If not for you." "he'd have shot the cabin to pieces." "It's me." "How are you coping?" "Better." "We've been singing for Mum and we dressed her nicely." " She looks beautiful." " That's good." " I'll be there as soon as I can." " No, there's no need." " But come to the funeral." " Are you sure?" "Yes." "Yes." " Johanna?" " Yes." "Give my regards." "See you." " It's a beautiful language." " Yes." " Do you go home often?" " Not for 20 years." " Okay." " That's the way it is." "Want to know what was on the plane?" "Luka Ivanovitsj Budanov." "Russia's richest man." "He's wanted for killing Russia's Justice Minister." "They crossed the bridge to Sweden half an hour ago." " When do you start?" " Now, as a matter of fact." " Shall we get ourselves to Sweden?" " Yes."
