"The driver's name is John Lynge." "Let's get him." "Stop!" "Will he make it?" "He was in the hospital." "If he has an alibi, I want to know." "The press will think we hired a killer." "Have you withheld information due to the election?" "It's from the police or us." "If I can access the log files..." " People's e-mails?" " His innocence was just confirmed." " We'll release it ourselves." " Please wait." "No deal." " It makes a difference if I wait?" " It does." "We should go away for a few days." "The police are always here." "The boys see Nanna in the papers." "They're doing more tests." "She's with God now." "What do I care?" "I don't give a shit." "She's supposed to be with me." "You wanted her." "You raped her." " I loved her." " Are you involved?" "No." "What happened to my daughter?" "It can't be worse than what I imagine." "She wasn't dead." "She was alone in the trunk." "Alone and waiting." "I want him to be found, Theis." "I made the decision for you." "Troels, it was Morten." "Who got angry and said you mustn't be there?" "Was he the one?" " Meyer here." " Are you at the school?" "Go to the cellar." " Are you there?" " Yes." "Chill." "Find the door to the boiler room." "Tell me what's in there." "You'd better get here now." "THE KILLING" "I can't say." "Maybe all night." "No ice hockey." "If you don't take Swedish, you'll fall behind." "Granny will help you." "Good." "See you." "Bye." " Who lit candles?" " Damned if I know." "Are you coming to the cellar?" "There's blood on the mattress, table and floor." "And spots." "If we're lucky, they're semen." "We found hair." "Even on the witch's hat that Nanna wore." " Who had access?" " There's a ton of fingerprints." "You can get in from the bike cellar with a key." "Or from the school." " And drugs." " Plenty." "Joints everywhere." "And traces of amphetamine and coke." "What is the room used for?" "Storing tables and chairs." "Books and the like." "I wasn't aware that the pupils had access to the boiler room." " But they do." " What have you found?" "Does the student council have access?" "They planned the party." "It should have been locked." "Is that where Nanna was?" "What about him?" "Jeppe is student council president." " What about him?" " He's a top pupil." "He shares an apartment with Oliver." "Is Oliver a good pupil?" " They come from good families." " Unlike the mover's daughter." "I didn't say that." " We aren't prejudiced." " Neither are we." "Thanks very much for your help." "Hi." "Have a seat." " Why am I here?" " It's just routine." "I have a physics report to do." "Sit down." "You met a man in the cellar on Friday." "He had campaign material." "Why didn't you say so?" "You knew we were looking for a driver." "How could I know he was a driver?" "The driver lost his car keys." "Did you happen to see them?" "No." "Am I here because of some missing keys?" "What were you doing in the cellar?" "Fetching things for the bar." "We found a room where a party was apparently held." "Do you know anything about it?" "The party organisers had a room for beer and soda." "Is that the one?" "There's blood." "And traces of drugs." " I wouldn't know." " We found Nanna's hat." "Do you know if she was there?" "No idea." "I got the last kegs at around nine." " I didn't see anyone there." " You're sure you weren't there later?" "I'm sure." "No one saw you after 9:30." "Do you remember what you did?" "The disco ball blew the fuses." "I used the last one, so I went to buy more." " When did you get back?" " I biked far to get the right ones." "The fuses." "When I got back, Oliver was asleep in a classroom." "He had had too much to drink." "I walked him home, and we got there just before midnight." "That was early." "I was going hunting the next day." " Hunting?" " At Sonderris Estate." "Our hunting club held a big event." "I spent the night there." "I wish I could be of more help, but that's all I know." "Fine." "Then you won't object to a blood sample and fingerprints." "It's just routine." "Otherwise I have to arrest you to get them." "I'd like to see my lawyer." "I refuse to say anymore now." "I checked up on Oliver." "On Saturday he worked in a café." "Then he and a female colleague got drunk and went to his parents' house." "Thanks." "He and the girl hung out there till Monday." " Didn't you get me one?" " Isn't Swedish sausage all you eat?" " What was their motive?" " It doesn't matter." "They're lying." "They don't have an alibi." "Mull it over." "I'll talk to Oliver and give you a call." " Didn't he ask for a lawyer?" " He has that right if he's charged." " But not as a witness." " Meyer, stop." "I want cheek scrapes and blood samples." " We arrest them now." " The lawyers won't be here for hours." "We have the apartment, e-mails and phone records to check." "And find the girl Oliver claims to have been with all weekend." "Sarah Lund." "I can't take your call right now." "Leave your name and number, and I'll get back to you." ""Faith moves mountains and Dad moves the rest."" " Are they asleep?" " Yes." " I know you're angry with me." " No." "I just thought it was a good idea to get away." "I still do." "We agreed that..." "That we should think of the boys first." "I can't be in the boonies and not know what's going on." "They'll have to tell us something." " Yes, well..." " Hello." "I thought you might be hungry." "So..." "I got a calzone for myself and a capriciosa for you, Pernille." "And a pepperoni and pineapple for you." "And a beef one for the boys." "They can have it for lunch tomorrow, so..." "I'll fix the dishwasher tomorrow, so it'll last till you move into the house." "What house?" "The one in Humleby." "It was supposed to be a surprise..." "That was before." " What do you have on the boys?" " Nothing until the results get in." "The hearing is later today." "The DNA register gave us top priority." " You realise who their parents are." " You don't care about that." " I care about this department." " I won't make trouble." " Hartmann wants a meeting." " What about?" " It sounded important." " Later." "We're off to the apartment." "What did we just talk about?" " We have an apartment to search." " I'll do it and keep you posted." "Thanks, Meyer." "That's that." "Give Hartmann a call." "Morten just left." "It can't be him." "I've known him for 20 years." " Why would he help Bremer?" " He e-mailed the reporter." "But we don't know what he wrote." "It could be completely innocent." "Sure, but not likely." "What the hell am I to do?" "Was what you did even legal?" "Hartmann." "Hi, Lund." "Thanks for calling." "Can we meet?" "No, not here." "How about?" "Frederiksholm Canal." "The Canal Café?" "Okay." "See you." "The alliance is the most important." "When's the deadline?" "6 p.m. Tomorrow." "Kirsten will get the proposal soon." "We only yield on the environment." "Otherwise we'd be in their party." " You're leaving?" " Yes." "I'll call you." " Hello." " Hello." " Thanks for coming." " No problem." " How are the girl's parents?" " Is that why I'm here?" "No." "I have a press conference tomorrow." " I want to say the right things." " Say what you like." "There have been many surprises." "Will there be more?" " Not that I know of." " Can I say there's no link to us?" "I suppose so." "If you believe it's true." "Hartmann, your table is ready." " Is that all?" " Perhaps I was too judgmental." "Things have happened in my support base..." "Could I order one of those?" ""One of the street lamps in the parking lot" ""outside shines dimly through the opening."" ""Look, he says proudly and shines his flashlight"" ""on a big bag ofjujyfruits."" " What's that?" " Jujyfruits?" "Maybe juicy fruits." " That's your mum." "She knows." " Don't count on it." " Hello." " Bengt!" "Come in." "I got off early, so I made the flight." "Hi, Mark." " Hello." " All right?" "I have a gift for you." "There you go." "I hope it's okay." "I'm only staying for one night." " Then I have to be in Stockholm." " It's nice to see you." " You two can have my bed." " Sigtuna hockey club's official shirt." "And this is for you." " Thank you." " Where is Sarah?" "Let's say someone gets hold of information that a certain employee has sent a certain e-mail." " It sounds like someone screwed up." " Hypothetically speaking." "Of course." "Without a clause allowing the employer access to them the information is useless." "The person who found this e-mail could be prosecuted." "Hypothetically, of course." "There's something on your lip." "Thanks." "I would recommend a little talk with the person." "Bill, please!" "Do you believe in fate?" "Until a few days ago everything was fine." "Then a young woman is killed, and suddenly everything changes." "I believe we control our own lives." "What's yours like?" " It's none of my business." " I have a good life." "I'm about to move to Sweden with my son." "My boyfriend lives outside Stockholm." " How old is your son?" " 12." " How about you?" " I'm a bit older than that." "No." "We didn't get that far." "My wife died two years ago." "I spend most of my time working, but now I've met someone." " So it might not be too late." " The woman from your office." "Rie." "Can you see the contents of my pockets as well?" "Hello?" "Hi, darling." "Can I call you back?" "Really?" "Why didn't you tell me?" "I'll hurry home." "That's great." "You too." "See you." "My boyfriend just arrived from Stockholm." "Thanks for coming." "No, I'll get that." "Thanks for dinner." "Don't let the taxpayers foot the bill." " Hello?" " Meyer, it's me." "What did you find?" "Not much." "The technicians took their computer and some samples." "Did anything in the girl's room indicate who she was meeting?" " Can't it wait till tomorrow?" " She must have had a date." "We assume it was Oliver, but you wouldn't let me talk to him." " Hello?" " You just woke everybody up." " Have the parents recalled anything?" " I'll ask them tomorrow." "A detective told the mother that the girl drowned in the trunk." "You don't have to go." "I'll talk to her parents." "DAY 4" "THURSDAY 6 NOVEMBER 9:15 A.M." " I can take a taxi." " No, I'll drive you." "My mother offered to come on Friday and help with the housewarming." "No need." "I cancelled it." "It's better to wait till your case is solved." "I don't have to solve it." "We're coming on Saturday." "I'm not inviting lots of people for you not to turn up." "Of course I'll turn up." "I'm looking forward to seeing your parents." "And Ole and Missan and Janne and Panne, Hasse, Basse and Lasse..." " Bosse is coming instead of Basse." " Good." "Okay." "Do you mean that?" " Do you believe in fate?" " Why do you ask?" "I don't know." "Do you?" "People use it as an excuse not to take responsibility." " So you don't believe in it?" " We control our own lives." "POEMS FOR MY LOVE" "My wife's home." "Please be careful what you tell her." "I'm sorry he told you." "The detective in question has been transferred, so you won't see him anymore." " Well, that's that." " I want to know the truth." "I want to know what happened." "No one's seen Nanna since the party." "She was probably driven away in the stolen car we found her in." "She was raped." "And she was beaten." "Presumably because she fought back." " In the woods?" " Yes." "We believe so." "It's also possible that she was held captive somewhere else first." " Why did she say she'd be at Lisa's?" " We're trying to figure that out." "Have you recalled anything else?" " She'd tell me if something was up." " When did she stop seeing Oliver?" " Is he involved?" " I'm only gathering information." "Six months." "He was her first real boyfriend." "Was she upset when it ended?" "No, but he was." "She..." "She didn't answer the phone when he called." "She always told me if there was something wrong." "Right, Theis?" "Excuse me." "Lund here." "I'll be right there." "I have to leave now." "By the way, I saw a pair of boots in Nanna's room." "Very expensive." " I don't know..." " Did you give them to her?" " Why do you ask?" " No reason." "I ask questions." "Most of them are irrelevant." "You've violated practically every right of my client." " It's because you can't tell time." " Meyer..." "My clients weren't allowed to sleep and were questioned without a lawyer." " There will be consequences..." " Sit down in there for a moment." "I forgot that the jail was full." "I drove around and dropped him off here at 5." " Did you question him?" " Have you seen his e-mails?" " He called her 56 times in one week." " Questioning without a lawyer?" "The lawyer was supposed to be here at 7, but didn't come till 9." "I couldn't throw the boy in a cell." "We just had breakfast together." "We had problems placing the suspects last night." "The lawyer was two hours late." "One of the suspects had breakfast." " Breakfast?" " He thought it was an interrogation." " Perhaps Meyer should explain." " Lund's description is accurate." "Write that in a report." "And bring it personally to my office." "After the hearing." "Well, that went well." "Coffee?" "It's been a turbulent time, but I've worked closely with the police." "The car was stolen, so our office is no longer involved." "But our thoughts and sympathy go to the girl's parents." " Is the driver a suspect?" " No, not anymore." " Also according to the police?" " Unfortunately we were involved." "But we have nothing to do with it." "Ask the police any further questions." "Has it affected your relationship with the Centre Party?" "Local politics are rarely as dramatic as the tabloids believe." "Thank you." " Is an alliance being negotiated?" " The deadline is tonight." "We'll see." " Is Bremer wooing Kirsten Eller?" " He is." "Personally I think he's a bit old for her." "Thank you." "Eller was interested." " When's the meeting?" " This afternoon." "It's a mere formality." "Let's get a sandwich on the way." "I missed you last night." "I know I shouldn't have deceived you." " But a solution had to be found." " Is that an apology?" " Stop it." "You know it was necessary." " No, actually I don't." "What you did was illegal." "We can't use the information anyway." "He's my friend." "He would never do that." "I'll talk to him tonight." "Here's a draft of your speech." "You can announce it with Eller." " We'll look at it in the car." " Maybe Morten should go instead." " Then you could talk about it." " It's only the points we agreed on." "Fine." "Meanwhile I'll hold the fort." " Let's go then." " Fine." "Jeppe Hald spent Saturday night on the estate." "Nothing unusual." "But he called Oliver several times." " What about Oliver's girl?" " She said he was worried, depressed." " We need hard evidence." " The prints from the boiler room." " Half the school was down there." " So?" " What about DNA?" " We're waiting for forensics." " Ready?" " What are you doing?" " Interrogating." " No." "You can come in, but I'm interrogating." " Hello." " I'm not talking to him!" " Take it easy." "I'm here." " Sorry about the misunderstanding." "Just a few questions, and we'll leave you alone." "Nanna told her parents she'd be at Lisa's." " Was she meeting you?" " No." "Do you know who it was?" "No." "Did you give her these boots?" "No." "Okay." "What were you so angry about when you threw a chair?" "My client reserves the right not to answer." "I'm trying to help you." " She said she'd met someone else." " Enough." " Did she say who?" " My client had a rough night." " Nothing further." " Anything else?" "I asked if she'd come to the cellar to talk." " But she wouldn't." " What did you do then?" "I called her a bunch of names." "Fucked up names." "That was the last time I saw her." "Thanks." " That's it." " About time, too." "The girl had a date." "She had expensive boots no one knew about." "Couldn't Oliver have bought them?" "And the date was with him?" "Something's wrong." "Don't smoke in here." "Let me tell you what's wrong." "You've been here for ages." "You're leaving, but you think you're irreplaceable." "You can't accept that I have your job now." "That's what's wrong." "Forensics called." "The samples from the boiler room were contaminated." "There won't be a DNA profile ready for you today." "Okay." "We'll go back to the boys' apartment." " We were there all night." " But we didn't do our job." "So back we go." "Call the medical examiner." "That's much, much better." "It may be good enough for McDonald's or a steakhouse." "But not for my son's wedding." "It's not enough just to cook." "It has to be art." "Look at me!" "I heard about your daughter." "My condolences." "What can I do for you?" "I'd like to keep the apartment, Karim." "We can't move now." "I can't do that to my family." "What do you want from me?" "I heard you wanted it." "And that the landlord does as you say." "I'm willing to double the rent." "You've always ignored me." "Never said hello on the street." "There's a reason for that." "Okay." "Theis." "Tell your wife you can keep the place for as long as you like." "Jeppe and Oliver are being questioned." "That's all I know." " What should I tell the class?" " Nothing." "We don't know anything." "Lisa..." "Was Nanna upset about something?" " Was Oliver involved?" " No." "Then why do the police keep asking about him?" "I don't know." "You went to party together." "Did she say anything?" "Was she different in any way?" "No, she didn't say anything." "She was her normal self." "Why did she say she was staying with you?" "I don't get that either." "You're friends." "She would have told you her plans." " She would have said..." " Pernille, I really don't know." "She didn't tell me anything." "Honestly she didn't." " Was she angry?" "Was she mad at me?" " I don't know." "It's important." "You have to tell me." " She didn't say anything." " No matter what." "She didn't." "But she wasn't mad at you." "She really wasn't." " I'm sorry." " It's all right." "It's okay." "I'll take care of it." "Are you okay?" " It has to be sold." " Yes, of course." "If they don't buy it back, that's okay." "I don't need to make a profit." " I understand." " I haven't finished it." " The materials are included." " It's a lovely house." "There's nothing wrong in waiting a few months." "No, it has to be now." " Is that a problem for you?" " No." "Of course not." "There's a problem with the cellar." "The insurance assessor found dry rot." " The insurance must cover that." " No." "It even covers things not mentioned in the condition report." "No." "Only the owners' association's insurance applies." "You don't have insurance for dry rot." "It says so right there." "I'm sorry, but if you sell now, you'll lose a lot of money." "You have my number." "There's a taxi waiting for you." "Thanks for coming." "Call if you need me." " What colour do I have?" " Yellow." "Here I come!" "Red!" " Troels, the press has left." " These are tomorrow's voters." "You should taste the cake." " It's good." "Have a piece." " No thanks." " Go on." " No." " I haven't touched sugar for years." " Self-righteous prig." "Have you thought about what happened the other day?" "The reporter?" "And how he knew it was our car?" "Do you think someone in the office leaked it?" " Do you?" " The thought crossed my mind." "But I can't imagine who." "I have every confidence in all our employees." "Troels speaking." "What?" "I'll be right there." " Where is she?" " She'll call in a minute." " You said it was a formality." " Bremer made a new offer." " She can go fuck herself." " This is politics." " She can't lead us by the nose." " Let her talk and then say..." "We can compromise on integration..." "Thanks, Morten." "Give us a minute." "Troels..." "You have to be calm now." "Hello, Kirsten." "Just a second." "We're on our way in..." "Pay lip service to her." "Hey!" "We've worked on this for five months." "Okay?" "Are you calm?" "Hello, Kirsten." "So I heard." "That's the way it goes." "There's no point in getting upset about it." "Just tell it like it is." "It just wasn't meant to be." "There is no alliance." "I have to go now." "I'll call you soon." "Take care." "I was calm." "Damn it!" " Has all that work gone to waste?" " Call a group meeting." " Write a press release." " The alliance is our strategy." "Write that we're stronger alone." "We don't compromise, etc." "Call her up." "Later we'll say she negotiated with two parties." "Everyone must know she gave us a raw deal." "Let's get going." " Listen to Rie..." " What about parliament?" " Was this your advice?" " No, but let's move on." "This is politics." " Look who's talking." " Rie." " The compromise was thanks to me." " Thanks to you we're in this mess." "What?" "What do you mean?" "You think I leaked the story to the reporter." " No one is saying that." " Of course." "That's why you acted so strange." "You were questioning me!" " We know you sent that e-mail." " Is that a fact?" "Really?" "Show me what I sent." "Go on." "Show me." "It isn't necessary." "Stop it." "Tuesday, Wednesday..." "Here it is." "It wasn't me." "I never wrote that." "Someone must have..." "Do you remember the card she drew?" "For your 40th birthday?" "About growing up surrounded by your warmth?" " We must remember the flowers." " It's taken care of." "Charlotte talked to the undertaker." "She was never in doubt about our love for her." "You've always been a good mother." "Too bad about the samples, but we'll get new ones." " You had something to show me?" " Aren't you off to Sweden?" " I'm leaving Saturday." " We have a cider press there." "We've been mixing Belle De Boskoop, Bramley and Filippa all week." "We made our own apple salad with a Camembert dressing." " I'll give you the recipe." " Lovely." "I studied Clausen's report." "It's a very interesting case." "The blood in her hair clotted long before she hit the water." "There's bruising on the arms and legs, but on her right side." "Come here." "We've been through this." "Abrasions." "No." "Feel her skin." "There's redness around the wound." "If the body's in water, it disappears but it re-emerges after a few days." "They're bedsores." "The girl lay on a rough surface." "Perhaps a cement floor." "The cellar floor is cement." " How long?" " About 15-20 hours." " The sores are much older." " 15-20 hours?" "The cracked scabs on mucous membranes indicate many rapes." "With several hours between them." "But there's no DNA." "The rapist used a condom." "There's nothing under her nails or anywhere else." "Because of the water." "I thought so." "But she was in the trunk." "Look at her hands." "Someone cleaned and cut her nails." "And bathed her before she went to the woods." "Young people learn a lot in school." "But that's not part of the curriculum." "There are traces of ether in her liver and lungs." "She was drugged." "Perhaps several times." "He knew what he was doing." "I wouldn't be surprised if you found he'd done it before." "I'm sorry but the arrest is not unwarranted." " That's up to the judge." " Birk Larsen Movers." "We're closed, but leave a message and we'll call you." "This is Sarah Lund, CID." "We'd like to pick up Nanna's boots." "Please don't touch them." "Call me when you've got this message." " We've just come from the airport." " I'm glad you're here." "Why would I do something like that?" "You know me." "Let's talk later." "You should go home now." " This is my life." " It's mine as well." " Do you have a minute?" " Not really." "I'm leaving." " What is it?" " That was some trick you played." " No trick." " I hope not." "I said no to Bremer." "Don't think it was an easy decision." "You're right about innovation." "I hope you can live up to that." "What about your group?" "They do as I say." "You're hard to handle." "Hi." "I have some financial statements from administration." "Where do you want them?" "Did you release them?" "We'll need them back." "I don't think they did it." "I'm sure they did." " What are you doing?" " Take a look at this." " Where did you get this?" " Jeppe Hald's room." "He recorded it on his cell phone and saved in on a memory card." "Here we go." "It's show time." "I'll bring them in again." "Yes, we believe in it..." "Thanks for coming."
