"Before you became a Nazi." "Before you showered me with counterfeit dollars." "Now you belong to me." "Do you understand?" "Let's put him in the back." " Well, how was the New Year otherwise?" " Fine." "It was fun." "But it was a little late." "Theatre People, you know." "You weren't at Helga Krogs'." "No." "I was with Bjarne." "Do you think that, you're a good actress?" "I think that I have talent for it." "You know, Lisbeth, it requires concentration and willpower  to be good at what you want." " It requires hardships." "Sacrifice." "No?" " Yes." "We are dreaming of seeing you at the Royal Theatre." "In major roles." "Nora and Phèdre and Hedda Gabler." "A real actress." "Not a frivolous little girl." "Do you have it in you?"

"Workmen, housewives." " A gas station?" " And what do they want?" "Petrol." "Then I'll be on a bypass and sell petrol and strike up a chat." " Forget this shit." " Do not you think ... it's deep enough?" "The carpet too." "It can be traced." "You can't be serious." "You could have said it before." "It was easier to pull it off up here." "It's you who should know these things." " What the hell are you doing?" " Hjalmar doesn't trust you." "Take one end." "We must get the rug off." " We have to cover it!" " He doesn't trust you." " You're a Nazi." "Like Svenne." " So shoot dammit." "The only thing I'm trying to get is somewhere to play my music." " Down on your knees." " Arthur, dammit, we're friends." "Down on your knees!" "Down!" " Now." "Say goodbye, Ole." " No." " I don't want to die." " You don't want to die?" ""I don't want to die." "You don't want to die?" "No!" " I can protect you from Hjalmar." " Yes!" "I can protect you." "If you do as I say." " Say: "I agree."" " I'm with you!" "I agree!" "I'm going to let you live." "And you owe me a favour." "It is Arthur with a message for Zemich."

"Excuse me, Mr." "I think you should know that there is someone in your room." "I ... thought it was someone else." "Who?" "I haven't had a good day." "I'm just tired." " What the hell happened?" " Nothing." " You look like shit." " Shut up." " I need your help now." " I can't fucking help anyone." "I need some information about Hjalmar." "Forget it." "I'm off." "I'm done with Copenhagen." " Travelling?" "Where are you going?" " I just need to get out of here." "Fine." "So go." "What should I tell mom?" "She has waited for 10 years." "Is this the thanks?" "What about me?" "You, Bjarne?" "You'll manage." "The little model pupil." "Everyone cheered when you opened your little mouth." ""No, look, he's talking." "He's got grades."" "Me?" "I am 5 years older than you." "Do you understand?" "I've never been able to take as much as one right step." "Hjalmar cut Svenne's throat." "I've just been out and buried him." " Fuck it, Ole." " If it comes out ..." "There will be 20 men who'll claim it was me." "I don't want see it on the front page tomorrow." "Understand?" "It doesn't look like it." "I just got fired." " Why?" " Now try to listen." "I'll take out Hjalmar, life gets easier for you." ""We" won't take out anyone." " All right, forget it." " What is this information?" "Something that is palpable." "Lisbeth's father is involved but can't I write about it." "But he has a subordinate, Ramsing who is up to his neck." " I know him." "The fat pig." " Give me something on him." "Public prosecutor Dam Jensen?" "Sergeant Walter." "I've applied for your department." "We appreciated your information about the Crisis squad." "We got a tip-off over the phone." "The location of the site was accurate." " His name is Sven." "Svenne Christoffersen." " Said the man on the phone?" "Yes." "And it was Hjalmar, who killed him." "Those who say you can't buy happiness, are lying." "You are Svend Aage Hjalmar, I suppose." "Public Prosecutor Dam Jensen." "And this is Sergeant Walther." " G'day." " Hello." " How can I be of service?" " Do you know Svenne Christoffersen?" "Yes, he works for me." "Well, what has he done now?" " What should he have done?" " You're from the police, so." "Should'nt we call a spade a spade?" "Yes." "What what are you saying, Walther?" "Should we call a spade a spade?" "Yes." " But what is it with Svenne?" " You'll hear more from us." "Gordan is here." "My dear Dam Jensen, I come to invite you to a dinner." " The Minister of Justice is coming." " I've had the pleasure once." "I think you would be on very good terms with each other." " What can I do for you?" " Svenne Christoffersen." " Rumour has it he was found dead." " That's right." "I'm a little curious." "Are there any suspects?" " Svend Aage Hjalmar." " Hjalmar?" "Interesting." " What are these rumours?" " They spread like wildfire." ""Listen to the rumours, but use your judgement."" "A tip from an old fox." "The case has been blacked out." "That's why I ask." "Hjalmar knows of course." "Well, I should not take more of your time." "Could I see the report?" "Informally, of course." "Sorry." "I have been appointed to lead an inquiry." "But don't mention it to anyone." "Then I'll know it comes from you." "Well, we'll see you on Kitty's birthday." "So he jumped in." " Hello?" " It is Ole." "How are you?" " Who is it?" " Ole." " It's Bjarne." " I have some information." "Say he should call more often." " I was to say ..." " Billy from the Kronborg." "The boy is a male hooker." " He involved with Ramsing." " Sergeant Ramsing?" "Vissing, listen here." "Billy." "Male hooker. 17 years old." "The Café Kronborg brothel." "Ramsing gets paid for his services" " With sex with Billy." "Who is behind this?" "Hjalmar." "Do you know what's the best?" "Billy wants to talk to us." "The source is anonymous." " Doesn't that give you second thoughts?" " Not if the story is good enough." "Where do you know this from?" "Your brother?" "Lisbeth Gordan?" "Or a document you happen to have stolen?" "How many people are you going to destroy?" "Nobody." "I will reveal all this mess." "Fine." "Just keep believing in the system then." "Let Hjalmar kill, Ramsing abuse youngsters and..." "I forbid you to move on this." "The case is closed." "Otherwise, I'll make sure that you are ..." "I will what?" "Get fired?" "Fine." "Fine." "What are you doing?" "You can end up in jail for this." "...you must get away quickly." "There will be someone coming to interview you." " You've had your chance." " Hello?" "Billy?" " I'm leaving now." " You've never been here." "... away from you!" " Would you really like to know?" " We could go to Jylland." "I have my friends here." " Is it Ramsing you're talking about?" " I earn my money here." "Will you let the journalist ask questions?" " Those people are dangerous." " Arthur looks after me." " What did Arthur promise you?" " It's none of your business!" "You've had your chance." "Go." "Find someone else to be a father for." "Jesper ..." "I..." "You're a stranger to me." "You could fuck my ass for 20." "I have customers." "Vissing ..." "Come in." "Haven't I seen you before?" "You look so cute." " How would you like it?" " I'm only here to talk." " First time, huh?" " I mean it." "It costs 20 for whatever." "Sit." " What's your name?" " Billy." " No, your name is Jesper Vissing." " My name is Billy." " It's you who know Ramsing?" " Well, it's you." "Arthur said there would be one." "It's Ramsing." "First, I suck and ..." "You're sure it's the same Ramsing?" " He gets it for taking care of the police." " Who gives?" "Hjalmar." "It is his business." "Want to smoke?" " It takes the edge off." " No, but thank you." " What's your name?" " Bjarne." "Don't be shy, Bjarne." " Where's your mother, Jesper?" " Billy." "Not Jesper." " She took too much." " Too much what?" "My mother fucked all of Nyhavn." "My dad went away when I was born." "Then he suddenly showed up." "And we were supposed be family." " Was it in 47?" " I should "go to school."" "Why should I?" "Then I couldn't make any money." "No..." "Who would look after me?" "Arthur takes care of me here." " Did Arthur ask you to talk to me?" " Daddy." "My sugar daddy." "Was it you who called Dam Jensen about Svenne?" "Was it you who called Dam Jensen about Svenne?" "Was it?" "Come on." "Was it you who called Dam Jensen about Svenne?" "Wait." "You or Arthur?" "You or Arthur?" "You want to convince me that it was Arthur?" "Hjalmar's right hand man?" "Why would I believe a little Nazi like you?" "His ... ribs." "What was wrong with his ribs?" " Come on!" " He'd broken them." "He was hurt." "He couldn't even lift." "Arthur had sore ribs?" "Is that what you're saying?" " He called from a phone booth." " Hjalmar kicked the knife attacker." "He is full of bullshit." "He's lying!" "It was Arthur Næslund." "It was a little hard to explain what I needed the '47 volume for." "One more thing." "You and your brother, you keep away from my daughter." "Ole?" " Turn off the lights." " For fucks sake!" " What happened?" " Nothing." "Does it look like it?" "I was interviewed by Lisbeth's father." "I was to say hello." " What did he want?" "He wanted to know who had gossiped to police about Svenne's murder." "You know, I have a front page for you tomorrow." "Come here." "See it here for yourself." ""Nazi helping brother."" "That's what I always will be." "The Nazi Ole Madsen." "I'm want to get away from here." "Good evening, Mr Police Commissioner." "Sit down." "Well, did you find the knife- attacking pig?" " Yes." "We found him." " It's a damn shitty story." " It wasn't Ole Madsen." " Of course it was." "No." "It was Arthur." "When it failed, he shifted the blame onto Svenne." " He tried to kill you." " Arthur was a resistance fighter." "It's irrelevant, what everyone was." "The bottom line is that you've made a mistake." "The bastard!" "I'll kill him!" "Where is he?" "Get out!" " Find him, the bastard!" " I can't." " He disappeared without a trace." " Then find him." "I've tried, but it's impossible." "Zemich apparently has other plans." "You've made a mistake, and you must pay for it." "Now you can choose." "Dam Jensen, do you know who's on his way?" " Hello, gentlemen." " What can I do for you?" "Yes, I would like to get something off my mind." "This is my lawyer." "The time is 07:46." "You are under arrest." "Go ahead take a seat." ""It must be communicated to you that  car dealer, Svend Aage Hjalmar is alleged  to be involved in the illegal importation of goods and bribery of officials.""
