One year and one month previously
It's me. It's been a while, Martin.
You're doing well, I hear.
You let August go, Jens. You're not going to hurt my son.
-Punish me. -I believe that's what I'm doing.
Stay seated.
Why? I need to know why.
Was it because she chose me?
You killed all those people because your wife left you?
It wasn't just my wife. I lost my son, my job, my friends.
Is that enough for you?
Where is he? Where is August?
He is no more.
You'll never know if he suffered.
If he was afraid. If he cried.
If it was a long, painful death.
You'll never have a body to bury or a grave to visit.
-Shut up. -You'll never know what happened.
You shut up! Shut up!
Martin! I found him. I found August.
-No, you haven't. -We found him.
In the garage on Engmosevej.
-August is alive? -Yes.
Can you honestly tell me that August is alive, Saga?
Is August really alive?
Saga!
EPISODE 1
It's leaving the fairway.
-Which one? -That one.
I communicated with them earlier.
Try channel 16.
Sending out DSC.
What the hell.
-What's the cargo? -I don't know.
No. They need to close the bridge.
No! She's heading right for the bridge.
-Saga Norén, Malmö County Police. -Kaj Linddahl, Coast Guard.
Hey!
Hey.
Hey! Hey.
Can you hear me? Do you understand me? Do you speak Swedish?
I'm Saga Norén from Malmö County Police. What's happened here?
Hey!
-Were you able to ID them? -They had nothing on them.
-You did great. -I could always do better.
-Did that ship run aground? -I don't know.
-You've got that math test today? -Yes.
Why are you sailing in the morning when you're so busy?
I don't have any classes this morning.
-As long as you can cope. -I can cope.
-Or am I missing something? -No.
Right, that's what I thought.
He's not British, he pronounced "Åbo" like a Dane.
Where were they when you communicated?
Up here. Southwards. She was coming in from Halmstad.
So they abandoned ship at some point after?
Probably in a smaller vessel. They don't register on our screen.
So you really can't help us at all?
Thank you.
-Saga? What's the story with the boat? -Ship. It was a ship.
Maritime law defines ships as 40-by-13-foot vessels and above.
-What'd you find on theship? -Five people chained below deck.
How did the crew explain that?
There was no crew. The ship was abandoned.
John, get me a list of missing people, ages 17-25.
-How far back? -Three months.
-Make it chronological, with pictures. -Done.
Beate! Can't you pair me up with someone else for our group project?
-Why? -Because Christian is no good.
We will get a 12, but I'll have done all the work.
-I'm sure Christian will help. -With what?
Pair me up with someone who's on my level.
-No. -Why not?
I'm actually capable of evaluating your individual contributions.
-He can learn from you. -Making sure he learns is your job.
What's hard? Get the overtime from last quarter...
-I know who were on that ship... -I'm in the middle of something.
-We'll do this later. -I know who were on that ship.
Victor Bergström. Likely disappeared in Helsingør with two friends
his Danish girlfriend and her friend.
One friend, Fredrik Lundblad, was reported missing Saturday.
Svante Källén could not be located for questioning in Lundblad's disappearance.
No one's seen them since Friday.
The Danish girlfriend and her friend were on the ship?
-A lot would point to that. -Great. I'll inform the next of kin.
I'll go to Copenhagen for more info on the girls.
-Why? -To prepare before I question them.
Shouldn't you let it go? Five kids went missing. Now they're found.
Kidnapped, more likely, and chained to a ship set to run aground.
They're not just "found."
-I'm here for Martin Rohde. -That's his boss, right there.
-Saga! It's been a long time. -Yes, it's been 13 months.
-It's good to see you again. -I was here for Martin.
Right, so I heard. Follow me.
-When did you two last see each other? -At August's funeral.
-You haven't seen each other since? -No.
What is it about?
A ship ran aground with five people in chains.
Two were possibly Danish, possibly reported missing.
-Missing people isn't Martin's desk. -They were likely kidnapped.
They've not been questioned yet. I'd like to see any files.
-I can get someone else to help you. -Why not Martin?
-He's assigned to other duties. -What duties?
He's on the group coordinating police efforts for the EU summit.
-Don't they work out of here? -Yes, but...
Saga, it's been a long road for Martin to get to this point. It's taken time.
I honestly don't know how he'll respond to seeing you again.
I've gone over the reports of our last case.
There were alternate courses of actions. The outcome would've been the same.
No one blames you. Neither does Martin.
Then why can't I see him?
That's his office. That door, right there.
-Goddamn it, it's been ages! -Yes. One year and one month.
Right... You want to step outside?
It's great seeing you! What brings you here?
A kidnapping. Two Danish females should be reported missing.
Got their names? Sure, we'll help you with that. Come on.
-It's great seeing you! -Right, you said so.
Right... This way.
Maria Holst and Vibecce Nielsen.
-I could have emailed them. -Emailed what?
This information.
Yes, but I wanted to come here.
-To see me? -Yes.
Why didn't you come sooner?
I didn't have a case that involved Denmark.
A bouncer at Mainstreet saw them leave at 03.45.
-Do you know the place? -Mainstreet?
-In Helsingør? -No.
They left along with four men...
Only three men were reported missing and found chained on that ship.
Saga Norén, Malmö County Police.
When? Good. Thanks.
Maria Holst has died. This is now a homicide investigation.
-How'd it go with Saga? -I thought it went OK.
She's waiting in the car.
-For you? -Yes.
She wants me to go with her to Helsingør.
-Is that OK? -I don't know. Is it?
It think it's a good idea, Martin.
OK.
-So how are things? -Good.
-You working a lot? -Yes.
-You're completely yourself. -Yes.
You've gone gray.
No, Saga, I've gone silver.
We haven't seen each other in a year.
Don't you have anything to tell me? Anything to catch me up on?
I don't live with Mette anymore.
-So you're divorced? -No, separated.
-Did you cheat on her again? -No.
I'm just no good to Mette and the kids anymore.
But we had twins, did you know? Sanne and Simon.
Oh?
I'm living with a guy named Jakob Sandberg.
-The guy with the flowers? -No, that was Anton.
Where and when did you meet?
In a bar, a little over seven months ago.
-And now you're living together? -Yes.
-Full time? -Yes. Since last Wednesday.
-And how's that going? -Good.
Great. Now I know...
Christian Fischer? Martin Rohde, Copenhagen Police.
This is Saga Norén from Malmö. We'd like to talk about Vibecce Nielsen.
According to your statement, you saw her leave this establishment at 3.45 a.m.
You stated she and a friend left here with four men.
Are these three of them?
No idea. You know how crowded this place gets?
The sign by the door says maximum capacity allowed is 950.
Exactly. And this place is usually packed on weekends, so...
-But her you recall? -Yes, what was her name? Vibecce?
She and I happened to be out for a smoke.
We talked a little. I think she was into me.
-Because she talked to you? -Because of thewayshe talked to me.
-But you don't recall any of the guys? -Sorry, I don't pay attention to guys.
-Any camera surveillance of the door? -No.
-What about inside? -There are no cameras anywhere.
There's a cam right there.
-Another one there. -Police cameras.
I'll have Barbara check it out.
No, I'll put John on it. It's important.
OK.
Hey. Check this out.
What are you gonna show me now?
-Let me see. -What's this?
-I put it on YouTube. -You tagged a wall? You'll get 5 hits.
-You couldn't do it. -Of course I can.
-Give it back. -Let me check out your apps.
-You guys watched Barcelona last night? -Messi was awesome.
Right, you don't have any TV channels.
-Let's go. -Wait, I'll get my jacket.
Hey, wait up!
Hey! What did you take off for?
-Couldn't you wait? My cell phone. -What about it?
-You took it. -No, I didn't.
-Come on... -You left it on the bench.
-Cut it out. -It's true. Maybe someone grabbed it.
What's up?
Do you ever think about what happened here last year?
No, not anymore. But you do?
Yes. You can just shut that out?
I only think about what I want to think about.
Lucky you.
-Hey... -Hello.
Saga tells me you're back. Weren't you moving?
Yes, to be closer to my grandkids. But then my son got a job down here.
-That's great. -Yes. And how are you?
It is what it is. But otherwise, I'm actually good.
The four people in the hospital have come to.
Apparently it's hard to talk to them.
-Why did Maria die? -We're waiting on the autopsy.
Faxborg was moored in Halmstad.
She was likely stolen last night. No cams, no witnesses.
-Who owns the boat they were found on? -The ship.
-Huh? -Faxborg is a ship.
It measures over 40 by 13 feet - a ship in maritime law terms, not a boat.
-Is the terminology relevant? -Could be.
-Is it relevant right now, though? -No.
-OK, then. Who owns the boat? -Marcus Stenberg. He lives in Ystad.
Martin? What are you assigned to? Should you be working on this?
I'm on the group coordinating police efforts for the EU summit.
So yeah, I'm sure they can make do without me.
-But you weren't referring to that? -Well, in part.
-I'd like to be in on this. -I'll just double-check with Lillian.
You do that.
She was supposed to stay moored another week, so no one was there.
-How many people knew it was empty? -The crew, my office staff...
The Halmstad harbor staff...
The smoke makes them think there's a fire. It soothes them.
-Is it easy to steal such a big boat? -It's meant to be locked.
I haven't seen it in a while, so I don't know how they did it.
-How many does it take to sail it? -To drive it, technically just one.
-And in actuality? -One, if you know what you're doing.
But to start her up and push off, I'd say at least a couple of people.
It's my wife. Sorry, I need to... Marcus Stenberg.
Do you like bees?
-I don't know, I never think about bees. -You should.
Albert Einstein said, with no bees, mankind would be gone in four years.
With no oxygen, mankind would be gone in four minutes.
-But I don't go around liking air. -No, right...
Sorry, that was my wife. Can we do this another time?
Do you know any of these people?
No, sorry.
Why would anyone steal your ship, chain five people and run it aground?
I have no idea, but I really need to...
Why don't you take my card? This is for the office.
They've got crew lists. Talk to Linda. She'll get you what you need.
-He lied about the phone call. -What do you mean?
-That wasn't his wife. -Where do you get that?
When you see Mette is calling, if she still calls you...
...you don't state your full name.
-Did you find your phone? -No. Why?
-You just sent out a text. -What are you talking about? Let me see.
What the fuck?
I WANT TO HAVE SEX WITH AMANDA R IN 7C
Here's your phone.
-How many did you send it to? -All your contacts.
Come on! It was just a joke.
See you tomorrow, loser.
I thought they had come to?
It's all relative. They're still weak and disoriented.
-Why? -They've been dehydrated, freezing...
We found traces of lysergic acid in their blood.
-Precursor for LSD? -We don't know what they ingested.
Some type of drug, combined with external factors.
She mentioned flashing lights, loud noises... It's pretty incoherent.
We have to see them.
Fredrik Lundblad is still pretty much unconscious.
Svante Källén's temperature is skyrocketing.
So we'll talk to the other two.
I'm Saga Norén from Malmö County Police.
Can you tell me what happened?
Vibecce, can you tell me what happened?
Lights...
...flashing...
OK, lights flashing. Try again.
A fox...and...
A fox...? A fox...?
Saga, that's enough.
You left Mainstreet with someone. You recall who?
-Maria... -No. It was a man.
-Where is Maria? -She's doing great.
-Maria is doing just great. -Yes, she's next door. She says hi.
Mainstreet, Victor. Who did you leave with?
It's flashing...
Yes? It's flashing?
Come on! There's got to be more. Where have you been?
What's happened?
All right, that's enough. Thank you.
-We didn't get a lot out of them. -No.
They go in and out of consciousness, no recollections...
Flashing lights? You'd think they were abducted by aliens.
What's that? I'm getting some coffee. What's that?
You made a joke, right? About the aliens?
Yes, I did. But you didn't find it funny.
-You could tell? -Yes.
-Damn, it's nice working with you again. -Yes. It's nice working with you, too.
-I'm not being nice. I mean it. -So do I.
You treat me like you always do. I really appreciate that.
How else would I treat you?
Not a lot of people are capable of it. Not after what happened with August.
It's thanks to you we're standing here today.
If you hadn't shot me, I'd have killed Jens on the bridge.
Yes, I know.
-Hey! Please, come! -What's going on?
-Hurry! He's taken her. -Who?
What's going on here?
Victor! Let her go. Hey, take it easy!
Be calm, Victor. Be calm, and we'll handle this nice and easy.
Hostage situation at hospital. Ward 76. Send backup.
-But first, let Anne-Louise go. -No...
Let Anne-Louise go!
Get them out of here.
Victor! Can you hear me?
Let Anne-Louise go, and we'll talk, nice and easy.
-Put away the scissors. -No.
-What do you want? -I want out of here.
OK, you'll get out. Just let Anne-Louise go.
-Let her go! -No... No.
I want out of here!
I'll put these on. And the two of us will get out of here.
-OK? -What are you doing?
I'm cuffed. I'm coming in. You'll let her go and take me instead.
I'm coming in. Look, it's me, Martin. I'm coming in now.
-You'll let her go and take me. -No.
-Let her go! You want to see Maria? -Yes...
Let her go, and you'll get to see Maria. Let her go! Let her go!
Let her go, and you'll get to see Maria. Let Anne-Louise go now!
-Turn around! -Do you know what happened to Maria?
-No. -Well, she's dead.
So fucking sorry!
-He traded places with the hostage? -I couldn't stop him.
You don't have to work with him if you don't want to.
-What did Hans say? -That I don't need to work with you.
-Why did you do that? -Because it was a great idea, Saga.
-No, it was bad idea. It was dangerous. -I'm better trained for it than her.
Not with your hands cuffed behind your back.
Well, it turned out OK, so...
You want a ride home?
No, thanks, that's OK. I think I'll take the train.
Say hi to Jakob for me.
-He doesn't know who you are. -Say hi anyway.
-Axel. -Hi, Daddy. It's me.
-Hi, honey. You on your way home? -Not quite.
Why not?
Tina wanted me to go to the stables with her.
After sailing, going to school, and working?
Just a couple of hours. Tina and I haven't hung out in a while.
-OK. See you at eleven? -Yes. Bye, Daddy.
This morning, the ship Faxborg ran into the Öresund Bridge.
The Maritime Administration lost contact as she ran aground.
Neither captain nor crew were anywhere to be found onboard.
Below deck, the Coast Guard found five exhausted teenagers.
They've now been admitted to the University Hospital in Malmö.
The police won't disclose any more details.
Hi? I didn't think you could make it tonight.
I'm at the stables with Tina.
-You're not very talkative. -No.
You don't think it's helping?
You know it takes time. It's a process.
I worked with Saga today.
-Saga Norén? -Yes.
Right. And how did that make you feel?
It felt like those hours did more good than this whole year with you.
Good. Then you should keep doing it.
And I will. But you and I, we're done.
OK.
For the evening. I'll see you next week.
He's struggling with the aftermath, no doubt.
But he'd never let anything happen to Saga or anyone else.
He won't let anything happen to anyone but himself.
Hi... What are you doing here? Nikolaj! Your father is here!
-And the others? -The babies are asleep.
Carl and Johanne are at tennis. I'm picking them up.
Hi!
-How you doing, champ? -Good. I'm cooking with Anna-Dea.
-What are you making? -Spaghetti.
-Hi, Martin. You staying for dinner? -Not tonight.
-I just need a word with Mette. -OK. Come on, Nikolaj.
-Bye, champ! -Bye!
I'm not coming tomorrow. I won't do the couples therapy anymore.
How am I supposed to take that? You don't believe in us?
-You know I do! -But you don't want to work at it?
No, not this way. I'm not going back to my own therapist, either.
-Why? It's helping. I've seen it myself. -No, because it's all a lie.
I've only learned to lie, to myself and to others.
But inside, nothing's happening. And I want to move forward.
And how are we supposed to move forward?
Lillian is letting me work with Saga again.
I'm back working homicide.
-Will you please wait for me? -Goddamn it, Martin.
-I've waited longer than most would've. -I know that.
Hello!
-How was your day? -Good. What are you doing?
I'm unpacking.
-But I don't want those there. -Well, where do you want them?
You could keep them in the box.
So we're going to live together, but only among your stuff?
No. Keep going.
-Are you working tonight? -No.
-You want to do something? -What?
Your call.
OK.
By the way, Martin says hi. He's a Danish colleague.
OK...
-You're thinking about himnow? -Yes.
-During sex? -Not during. After.
You think of other people during sex?
No... No! Do you?
No. Never.
OK... Good.
Ciao, bello.How's it going?
I'm good. Any mail for me?
No, I'm afraid not.
-What are you doing? -I'm reading.
"Relationship Skills"? "Emotions in Social Relations."
"Codes for a Better Relationship." Where did you get these?
The library. There've got a ton.
Why are you reading them?
-I want to get good at this. -At what? Living together?
At having a relationship.
Youaregood at it.
-How could I be? -I don't know, but you are.
This is the first I read, and I have no prior experience.
Come back to bed.
Listen to this...
-You're here early. -I'm waiting for you.
I...decided to stop going to therapy.
-Niels hasn't said anything. -He doesn't think it's up to me.
-It's not. We have an agreement. -But I know what I want instead.
-See Jens in prison. -Out of the question.
You know I haven't lived with my family for a year. Mette has a nanny to cope.
Something needs to happen now with us. With me. And it's not.
You've just begun a homicide case. One thing at a time?
I need to see that he's in there. Behind bars. Locked up.
-You know he is. -It's not enough.
I'll talk to Niels.
-He'll have to OK it, or no go. -Sure, that's fine.
None of their relatives knows why they would've gone missing.
Marcus Stenberg. Seems squeaky-clean. Check it out for yourselves.
So there's no connection between him and the victims?
-None that I could find. -Put a tail on him anyway.
-You got the footage? -Waiting for the Danes to send it.
-Did you say it was important? -Yes.
-Martin here.-I've spoken to Niels.
He'll be with you, every time, at all times.
We'll do continuous assessments and you'll do as he says.
-I get to see him? -At 2 p.m.
-Did he make any demands? -No.
According to the warden, he said yes right away.
2 p.m. Niels will meet you there.
-I've been allowed to see Jens. -Jens, who killed your son?
-Yes. -What for?
Sometimes, it could be a good thing for victims and perpetrators to meet.
Not with murder. Studies show it only works...
...if the perpetrator will admit any guilt.
-Jens won't do that. -No, maybe not.
Right. So why are you going to see him?
Because I keep seeing him - everywhere. He's in here.
-You understand? -No.
I need to see he's human. You understand?
No. That's a bad idea.
I need to go now.
I mean it. Really, it's a bad idea.
-What did you want us to check out? -Hold this.
-What's the deal? -Hold up. You record this.
Here.
What the hell are you doing?
Shit...
Put it out! Put it out! Help me!
Put it out, Albin!
-Put it out! -I can't get the pin!
-Just spray him! -It's not working.
The pin is stuck!
Stop filming and help out!
Excuse me! Linus Svensson? I'm Niklas, his brother.
-Right... So there are no parents? -No, it's just us. How's he doing?
It's a large area, 18 percent. But mostly first or second-degree.
-And that's good? -It'll hurt for a while.
He'll need to look after it, but he'll make a full recovery without surgery.
Let me show you where he is.
Sorry.
-You've got a visitor, Saga. -Hi.
Saga Norén, Malmö County Police.
Axel Möllberg. I've got some footage for you.
-What time was this? -Around 8.30 a.m.
You saw if it headed for Denmark or Sweden?
-No, I kept on shooting my daughter. -That's a shame. John!
-Saga... -I need to show John some footage.
-You need to come with me. -No, I need to...
Now! You need to come with me now.
Ready to go in?
You know he's looking forward to seeing you?
I'm doing this because it's something you want, and believe in.
-But are you sure? -Yes, I want to see him.
-I'm busy, Saga.-Go to the hospital.
-Two more have died. -We'll talk later.
No, you need to be admitted. They died from a serious form of pneumonic plague.
-What are you saying? -Pneumonia caused by plague bacteria.
We're to be quarantined.
I've been with Mette and the kids. The plague?
Pneumonic plague. It's non-existent here so they were likely purposely infected.
Someone's trying to cause an outbreak of pneumonic plague.
