Just get in here, Dennis.

Just get in here,
and we'll talk about it.

Are you listening?

Just come on in, damn it.

THE MARCO EFFECT

Hello!

We're at the border. Passport control
will now pass through the train.

We're at the Danish border.

Please have your passport
or ID ready for inspection.

Attention.
This is a passenger announcement.

We're at the border. Passport control
will now pass through the train.

Passport control.

We're at the Danish border
for passport control.

Please have your ID ready.

Open the door!

We're opening the door!

Piss off, you bastards!

- Come here.
- No! My dad's waiting for me!

- All right. I've got him.
- No!

I know...

I know...
Yes, I'm getting some sleep.

But I can't just sleep all the time.

So that's just...

What's did you say?
Oh, yes, six weeks.

Hello.

How long did we say?

- Six weeks.
- Six weeks. Exactly.

- As a baseline.
- Right. Because it might be longer.

- Or shorter.
- That's not what I meant.

What does your therapist say?

Not much.
He mostly asks questions.

- That's how it works.
- Yes, so I've heard.

- What does he ask you about?
- How I'm doing.

And how are you doing?

Terribly, but I'm going crazy
staying at home.

- That's why you want to come back?
- That's correct.

- So it's mostly for yourself?
- Who else?

I don't know. Maybe the public
whose lives we're protecting?

Oh, right.
Them too, of course.

So for their sake you want to return
after two weeks instead of six?

Six was the baseline.
But yes, please.

This is Jacobsen.
Yes.

Carl is back.
Yes, I know. But he is.

- Good morning.
- Good morning.

Good morning, Carl.

What's up?

We have a case. It's William Stark,
the guy who went missing.

They've apprehended a Romani boy
carrying a page from Stark's passport.

- It's one of Hardy's old cases.
- Right.

So it is.

It's been long since you've seen him?

Yeah...

Yeah, what's it been...
Four months.

- Why?
- I'm just curious.

Just wondering if you stay in touch.

Okay. Well, I do.

- I can come with you if you want?
- No. Just give me the case file.

Here we go.

- Bon Appetit.
- Thanks.

- Is this a bad time?
- No, not at all.

What do you want?

- You had the William Stark case, right?
- Why?

A Romani boy was found
with his passport.

- Where?
- On the train at the border.

Just sit down for God's sake.

- Did you quit smoking?
- Yes.

Damn.
I was hoping you'd brought me a smoke.

- Next time.
- It's all I thought about when I saw you.

- What does the boy say?
- I wanted to talk to you first.

Could you get me some water?

Thank you.

Yeah. Thanks.
That's enough. Thanks.

- What do you want to know?
- I don't bloody know.

It's all in here, but I don't know...

Stark was married. He was a father.
Had a good career. Was a swim coach.

One day a man informs the police
that his daughter broke down crying -

- because Stark had raped her
after swimming practice.

- Were any Roma involved?
- No, there weren't.

- Young boys or girls?
- The case was closed very quickly.

Stark's wife kept calling us. She was
furious and claimed he was innocent.

But we found a computer
with a lot of filth on it.

You might want to speak to his wife.

- Who closed the case?
- Jacobsen.

Two weeks after Stark disappeared.
He asked us to prioritise differently.

We didn't have anything to go by,
and Stark was missing.

We put out a warrant for his arrest
here and with INTERPOL. That was it.

- What about the rape victim?
- We talked to her briefly.

But the father shielded her
and asked us to stay away.

Would you like some coffee?

- Is it better than at the station?
- It's worse.

No, thank you then.

Child pornography...
What the hell is wrong with people?

You're bloody incredible.

No one in the whole country has seen
as much filth and depravity as you.

But you can't handle
a man in a wheelchair.

It's not just any man.
It's you, Hardy.

So...

It's all right, Carl.
You can leave.

It's all right.
Go catch the bad guys.

- I'll come by more often.
- Please don't.

I'll bring some smokes next time.

- Yes?
- It's Carl Mørck.

It's just straight ahead.

- Does he speak Danish?
- He doesn't speak at all.

But I'm convinced he understands me.

He's in here.

Good morning. I'm Assad.
This is my colleague, Carl.

We're with the police.

Do you like Coke?

Don't be scared.

Look here...

You had this passport on you...
Where did you get it?

This is the owner of the passport.
He's missing.

Do you recognise him?
Take a look.

Hey?

Take a look.

Did this man do something to you?

Can you tell us what he did to you?

Maybe just tell us your name
to begin with. Eh?

What's your name?

Do you have any family
here in Denmark?

Take a look at this man.
Did he do anything to you?

It's safe to tell us.
Perfectly safe.

Take a look at him.

Did you see him here in Denmark?

The Czech Republic? That's
where the train came from, right?

Did you see him in Denmark?

Was that a yes? Look at me.

Was that a yes? Hey.

Look at me.
I'm asking you a question.

How long ago did you see him?

This man was reported missing.
He's been gone for four years.

You need to help us figure out
what happened to him.

We know he's a bastard,
but you need to help us.

Tell us what you know.

He understands us just fine.

Don't you?

Jeanne. There are two gentlemen
from the police here to see you.

I cut two tenths of a second off my
50 metre in the first months with him.

- Is that a lot?
- Yes, it is.

Would you say you looked up to him?

Yes. He was nice,
and he was a good coach...

Just tell us how it all started.

Right...

It started when he asked me to stay
longer after my training sessions.

He wanted to give me massages.

He wanted me to take my clothes off.

I was only 13,
so I didn't know what to do.

That was how it started, but...

Then one day...

- Do you need details?
- No, we don't.

- Has he contacted you since?
- Excuse me?

- Has he contacted you since then?
- No.

- You haven't seen him since?
- Is he back?

- We're looking into it.
- I thought he was gone?

But... You don't think
he'll come looking for me?

- No, but we have to ask...
- It's our job.

I'd have told the police!
What the hell are you even doing here?

Thanks a lot.
This was just what I needed.

- That pissed her off.
- Yes, that went well.

- Hello?
- We're with the police.

William was very dedicated.

He did logistics for various NGOs,
like Doctors Without Borders.

He went to Sudan with the Red Cross...

- I'm boring you.
- Not at all.

- I'm sorry.
- Please continue.

He moved home after we met.

He struggled with his desk job.
He missed being out in the field.

But we were a family by then...

And he was a swimmer.
He taught several youth teams.

It sounds wrong to say this now,
but he really loved those kids.

- Could I use your bathroom?
- Of course. Second door on the right.

Anything happened
in the past four years?

Something you might not have
thought about at the time?

No, nothing at all.

And how does Thilde feel
about all this?

Do you figure skate?

- Dad didn't do those things.
- What did you say?

It's not true what they're saying.
My dad is the best dad ever.

All kids think that, you know.

Did you do all these drawings?

I didn't see any of it!
Not on the computer or anything.

Do you remember
when you last spoke to your dad?

You know that you need
to tell the truth to the police?

Right? You're not doing
anything wrong by speaking to me.

Do you remember when you last
spoke to him, and what he said?

Well...

I'll just take some photos
of your wall.

- I think my mum might get angry.
- I'll be quick.

What the hell are you doing?

- I think that's enough for now.
- We have a few more questions.

I've nothing else to say.
Please leave.

- Let's go, Carl.
- We've found some of William's things.

- What do you mean? What things?
- We can't say.

- But if he contacts you...
- Contacts us?

If he contacts you,
it's your duty to inform us.

Duty?
Don't come here and lecture me.

I've done nothing but try and
get hold of you these past two years.

"Duty?" You've failed to do yours.
Don't ruin our family again. Just go.

Yes, we'll go.
Apologies and thanks for your help.

Thank you, Thilde, you did great.
Come on, Carl.

I've just had two different
crying women on the phone.

They asked me if it's true
that William Stark has turned up.

- There's no basis for that.
- It's a theory.

Since when do we share our theories
with families and victims?

- Any other theories you want to share?
- The boy was abused. He killed Stark.

Where did you get that idea?
The boy hasn't said anything.

No, not yet.

Maybe the boy just found the passport?

Back then? Yes, of course
that's a possibility as well.

- Look, I get it, Carl.
- What?

Burying yourself in work
is often the only option.

But you have to do it properly.

If you don't,
I'll have to send you home again.

Are you saying
you don't want me on the case?

I'm saying I want you to behave.

This case landed on my desk,
so we're looking into it.

I get why those women are furious -

- when we closed the case after two
weeks. What the hell is that about?

Tell me why you were
in such a hurry to close the case?

Cut the crap, Carl.
What do you want me to tell you?

The truth for example.

- You know how it works.
- No. How does it work?

Don't play dumb.
What do you want?

To work in peace.
Why do you think I'm here at this hour?

- You can have two days.
- What can I possibly do with that?

If Stark is still an active paedophile
then it's not our case. You know that.

- Are you serious?
- Yes, Carl.

I'm also serious about you
attending your therapy sessions.

He told me you've never been.

Okay. Understood.

- I mean it, Carl.
- I got it!

- Otherwise I'll send you home.
- You've said that.

- I want to make sure you understand.
- I do!

Good.

Maybe you should start smoking again?

That's the smartest thing
you've said so far.

Hey! Stop! Stop!

Stop! No!

Stop!

Stop!

Stop! Hey!

Good morning.

Could you make some coffee?

Open your eyes. It's right there.

The others will be here in ten.

- Why did he close it?
- He asked Hardy to reprioritise.

What does Jacobsen think
about us working on it now?

I spoke with him and we have
his full support to pursue it -

- due to the new leads
with the boy and the passport...

Okay.

- Let's find all we have on Stark.
- We've been through it all.

Stark was charged,
the evidence was solid.

But I did find something else.
A Swedish journalist. Thor Samuelsen.

He wrote a blog which speculated
that Stark might have been taken out.

It's kind of a conspiracy theory.

According to him...

At the time of his disappearance,
Stark had recently returned from Africa.

He was investigating missing funds
from development aid projects.

And I think there's something there,
because we have his phone statements here.

He called the Foreign Office
17 times before he went home.

That was a week before
he went missing.

I think we should talk
to this journalist. We may as well.

All right. But set up a meeting with
Stark's boss at the Foreign Office.

Carl Mørck speaking.

Bloody hell. We're on our way.

- What's going on?
- The kid ran away.

He jumped out the window.
What a bunch of amateurs.

- Good morning.
- Hello, Mona.

- Did you get anything out of him?
- Not a word.

I've some drawings done by a young girl.
We're looking for her dad.

Could you help me figure out
if she's been sexually abused?

- Let me show you.
- Right now?

The boy might be involved.
It doesn't have to be now.

I can just send them to you.
What's your phone number?

- Well...
- Or your e-mail address?

Here's a card with all my information.

- Mona Ibsen?
- Yes.

That's a nice name.
Assad, we're done here.

- You'll hear from me.
- All right.

Bye.

- Are you hitting on her?
- What?

- Are you coming on to her?
- No.

Just a little bit?

- Let's put out a full alert for him.
- Yeah.

Let's go. And put that inside.

Come on. Quickly now.

Put it down!

You stay here
and load this up, little brother.

I'm not coming with you today?

Am I not making myself clear?
Just finish loading!

Dad?

Marco.

Dad!

Marco, what are you doing here?
Does your mum know you're in Denmark?

Does she?

...Mum is dead.

Is that true?

Oh my God.
My little boy...

I want to stay with you.

Marco, I'm sorry mum's dead,
but you can't stay here.

I'm really sorry,
but it's not possible.

If Zola finds out
that you're back in Denmark...

- I know where we could go.
- Are you crazy?

Zola will kill you.
And he'll kill me, too.

But I'm not scared of him anymore.

- I'll come get you tonight.
- Run off.

I'll come back
and get you tonight, okay?

My little boy.

- Marco...
- I'll come get you tonight.

Don't be scared, Dad.
Okay?

Thank you, Anna.
Welcome to the Foreign Office.

- I'm René Eriksen.
- Carl Mørck.

Sorry for the wait.
How can I help?

William Stark.

Right. A horrible story.

Have a seat.
How can I help you?

- When did you last speak to him?
- The day before he went missing.

He was sitting right there.
May I ask why you're revisiting this?

We're still looking for him, obviously.

Of course. All I can say is that
he was very competent and well-liked.

All those other things...
I don't understand that at all.

For years, I hoped
it would turn out to be a lie.

- Why would it be a lie?
- I just mean it was a tragic surprise.

- What did you talk about last time?
- It was about work.

He was investigating a case of fraud?

- Is something wrong?
- I just wonder how you know that.

- So he wasn't investigating fraud?
- Yes, he was.

Our work isn't easy.
We can't control everything.

All it takes is a few bad apples
and money starts to disappear.

It's a shame, but what can I say?

But you never found any of these...
Bad apples?

We did. After William disappeared,
we hired someone else -

- and he did find proof of fraud.

- But it had all been handled locally.
- Can you elaborate?

Typical cases of corruption, bribery
and contractors pocketing the funds.

We're dealing with a different set
of morals than the one we have here.

Do you have the name
of the new man?

Of course. Teis Snap. I have his
report, too, if you'd like to see it.

- Yes, please.
- I'll have my secretary find it.

It wasn't written for laymen,
but you might find it helpful.

Teis Snap?

I met Stark a few times earlier on.

- But you took over his case?
- Yes, among other things.

- How did you investigate Cameroun?
- Isn't that the report?

- I can't be bothered to read it.
- You should. It's well-written.

- Could you summarise?
- Like I said, it's a rather bad time.

- We're okay with that.
- Well...

Stark investigated a lot down there,
and he was somewhat paranoid.

That was sort of his world-view.
You probably recognise it.

Makes sense if you're scared
to be caught touching your students.

Or when you have several hard drives
full of children being...

I'm sorry. I just don't have
a lot of sympathy for people like that.

It's commendable
that you're still looking for him.

The short version: Money was missing,
Stark asked a lot of questions.

Then he went missing. I took over and
concluded that the locals had done it.

Teis? We need you.

Any more questions? Otherwise maybe
you could bother to read the report.

Come on.

If you'll turn over your hand,
I'll insert the needle.

There.

- Sleep well.
- See you tomorrow.

I saw your speech.

Did you practice?

Most people write and rewrite their
speeches, but never practice speaking.

Look at me when I'm talking to you!

- You don't like being here, do you?
- No.

I heard you had a visit
from the police earlier?

- Yes, I did.
- What did they want?

Just routine. The two new people
on the case are groping in the dark.

- So there's no need to worry?
- No.

Good. I shouldn't have to tell you
that if this gets out now...

It won't. They only know
what I want them to know.

Good. I'll be back on my feet soon.
Then I'll clean up your mess.

My mess?

When you reach my age, your legacy
matters more than you can imagine.

Yes, of course. But like I said,
you don't have to worry...

- You keep saying that!
- Meaning?

You're careless!

You're useless
and you always have been.

Can I even count on you?
Can I, Teis?

Haven't you always, Jens?

We're in here.

Hello and welcome. I'm Rose.
We spoke on the phone.

- Hello.
- Carl? Are you coming?

- Are you reopening the case?
- What case?

- The hospital in Maroua.
- Sit down. Start from the beginning.

It just never stops.
It just goes on and on.

They're completely shameless!
It's all a damn fraud!

It's about hundreds of thousands of
people not getting the help they need.

- Calm down for a second...
- It's all in here! Just read it.

- Do you take milk in your coffee?
- No, thank you.

Sit down and give us the short version.

Wait, that's not how it works...
You have to go into this in depth.

Let's just try.
Start from the beginning.

Okay...

So, five years ago a hospital was going
to be built in northern Cameroun.

Denmark was very much involved
and had put up millions.

Pictures were sent out
showing what they were building.

But if you pointed the camera three
metres to the left there was nothing.

The hospital was never built. It was
just a front. The money disappeared.

- Did you tell people?
- Of course!

- Where did the money go?
- I never found out.

Corruption, embezzlement,
locals who didn't deliver or worse:

People from the donating countries
committed fraud.

Setting up straw companies in the
country that landed the contract, etc.

I know these are just numbers to you
and to many other people.

Thousands of children are dead
because of this fraud -

- and no one does
a damn thing about it.

And do you know
what the worst part is?

That this filth is still happening.

They've just moved on
to other countries.

- Where does William Stark fit in?
- Stark was all right.

He was onto them, just like me.
Until he went missing.

I've read up on you. Two years ago,
you believed the Danish Prime Minister -

- ordered a hit
on a Turkish diplomat.

I stand by that.

But you were taken to court
and had to retract it.

- Yes.
- So why should we believe this?

- Why didn't you tell anyone?
- Why didn't I?

I've told it many times!
To the ministry, the police...

- You've told the police?
- Yes. You've never heard about this?

No, of course you haven't.

- That makes sense.
- What does?

All development aid fraud is kept
secret, which is understandable.

If people lose faith in where their
money ends up, they stop donating.

And this money is needed.

When DanChurchAid
comes knocking, you want to know -

- that your money isn't just funding
some criminal's swimming pool.

Why are you packing up?

- When did you last talk to your son?
- My son?

I'll tell you then. You talked
to him today. He came here, didn't he?

How long has he been in Denmark?

I don't know.
His mum died, so he came up here.

Why are you lying to me then?

Don't you think I've missed him, too?
I just need to talk to him to be sure.

And you're certain he'll be here?

He'll be here.
We've arranged to leave together.

- Take a look.
- What's going on?

Your son was apprehended
by the police, and now he's run off.

My son won't tell them anything.

Samuel, get the boys and find him now,
before he stirs up more shit.

If the boy fucks up,
I'll kill you both.

Keep that in mind.

Zola, he'd never tell them anything.
I promise. He's a good boy.

Get here now!

Hey, Marco! No need to run.
We're friends, aren't we?

Stop.

Stop.

Stop!

Hey! Marco!
Get him! Fuck!

- Get him!
- Marco, stop!

I'll kill you,
if he gets away.

Stop!

- Marco, stop!
- Stop!

Stop!

Damn it...

Fuck, man!

Carl?
Carl, wait a second!

Rose just sent this.
Take a look.

That looks like our boy, doesn't it?
This is Ingerslev Road.

So this is where you're hiding!

Hey, wait!

Hey, kid!
I'm so happy to see you!

You ratted us out!
What did you tell them?

- Zola! Let go!
- Take it easy!

Tell me truth or I'm letting go!

Who did you talk to?
Did you tell the police anything?

You've ratted me out! You little shit...
I'll throw you over the side!

- I didn't, Zola!
- I'm letting go!

Stop! Come on, Assad.

- Talk!
- Let go! I haven't done anything!

The little bastard bit me!
Cover the other way!

Come back!

I have to catch you.

Hey, boy...
I said I was happy to see you.

Don't be stupid.
We're family.

I won't hurt you.
I promise. Don't be afraid.

Hey!

Stop! Stay there!
I won't hurt you.

Don't jump!

We're here to help you.
Don't do it.

Don't be stupid!

Stop, police!
Assad, there's one on the top floor!

Assad! Hey!

Hey?

Stop! Police!
Drop your weapon.

Drop your weapon!

Put down your weapon.

Turn around.

Get down! Lie down face-first.
I said lie down!

Come on.

- Take good care of him.
- We will.

- How are you?
- Where are they taking him?

- Hvidovre Hospital.
- Let's go talk to him.

- He's unconscious.
- They'll have to wake him up.

- He won't run off.
- I need to speak to the brat.

Carl, you'll have a chance
to speak to him when he wakes up.

- Hello.
- I need to speak to him alone.

- He's badly injured.
- Am I not making myself clear?

It's all right, Mona.

This man...

Look at me when I'm talking to you.
Look at him.

I know you know him.

Who were those people?
They're after you, aren't they?

They attacked me, too.
Understand? It's not a joke anymore.

- Look at me, damn it!
- Carl...

Hey! Look at me.

I'm trying to help you.
Do you understand, you little shit?

Take it easy.

You can't run away.
There are police outside.

You'd better bloody talk to me.

Say something!
I'm tired of your shit!

Get lost!
I won't talk to you!

- Let's go.
- You bastard! Piss off!

- Carl, we're leaving.
- Get out! Out!

Get out of here, you bastard!
Piss off, you bastard!

Get lost!

Ow, my back...
What is it now?

Did that seem fair to you?
He's just a boy. He didn't attack you.

Is it fair that he isn't talking,
and that we're being attacked?

No, but you can't
talk to him like that.

- We got a reaction.
- One you could use?

Yes.

Mona? Can we talk?

I don't know.
Can we?

- You can't treat the boy like that.
- Can you get in for a minute?

I want to apologise
for what happened up there.

I was out of line.

I have no right
to speak to you like that.

So I'd like to apologise for that.

I...

It's a side of me that isn't very
attractive or useful. I know that.

So I just want to apologise.
It won't happen again.

Okay. It's all right.

But I also want you to know that
I really am trying to help the kid.

Believe it or not. If we hadn't gone
to that building site, he'd have died.

I was attacked as well.
This isn't to excuse how I behaved.

As I said, I was out of line.

And I want to apologise for that.

I overreacted. You're doing
good work up there. I know that.

You're a very professional individual.

So...

I'm very sorry, Mona.

Apology accepted.

Thanks.

Thank you. So, yeah...

See you.

Mona? About those drawings...

I haven't looked at them yet.
But I will.

Thank you.
And I'm sorry.

It's bloody unacceptable.
It really is.

You're no good, Carl.
No good.

- We're off to talk to Jeanne again.
- Why?

Her dad received some
rather strange, large sums -

- shortly after he reported the rape.

- Why not talk to the dad?
- He died two years ago in a car crash.

- Does that seem odd?
- A bit.

- We need to look into that, too.
- All right. Go talk to her.

- Let's not open with the money issue.
- Sure, sure.

It's in there.

Jeanne? It's the police.

Jeanne?

Jeanne? It's the police.

Jeanne?

Jeanne?

Assad.

What did you get yourself into?

They're taking her away now.

It's too early to say,
but it looks like suicide.

Yeah. Talk to you later, Carl.

- Let's go, Rose.
- Yeah.

- What did he say?
- What do you want me to say?

You know him.

- That wasn't a suicide, Assad.
- Let's wait for the forensics.

The cub's chances of survival
are much better now.

Only a handful of animals
can survive this far south.

There is sea ice
at the edge of the continent.

But also other challenges.

- Gordon?
- Yeah?

- I need to print something.
- Okay. Just send it over.

- What?
- Just send it to me.

I don't bloody know...
I just need to print this.

- Here... Not this.
- That guy?

No. Thilde's drawings.
They're in here.

- Perfect. Just send them to me.
- Nothing happens when I click on it.

- Try double clicking.
- Oh, right.

- All of them?
- Yes.

- What are we looking for?
- I'll be damned if I know.

What the hell
is all this supposed to be?

William Stark and Malene...
How many kids did they have?

One, I think. Thilde.

Thilde...

- None that died? No miscarriages?
- None that are registered.

Because...

Mum, dad and Thilde...
And one more. That makes four.

Thilde, dad and mum,
and one extra next to Thilde.

Dad, mum and Thilde.
And an extra little person here.

Dad, mum and Thilde.
And one more. Four.

Hello, Malene.
I'm sorry about...

Hello, Malene.
I'm sorry about last time.

It was rude of me
to take those pictures.

I should have asked for permission.
Yes...

We apprehended him on the train.
He had a page from William's passport.

It might just be
a strange coincidence -

- but I don't think
William was a paedophile.

Something else is going on here.

- But I need your help.
- Of course.

Look, Thilde. I took some copies
of your nice drawings.

I have some questions for you.

This is you, your mum and dad.
And here and here as well.

But who is this person
who is also in all of the drawings?

- It's a boy.
- Yes, that's what I thought, too.

Could it be the boy in this photo?

- Look closely. Could it be him?
- Yes, maybe.

Thilde? Is this the boy
you used to see on the stairs?

He brought the necklace
that Dad had showed you?

Excuse me? What necklace?

My dad showed me
that exact necklace on FaceTime.

- It was a present for me.
- She says William bought it in Africa.

This boy gave you a necklace
out on the stairs?

Which your dad had showed you
on FaceTime?

- Do you still have the necklace?
- Yes.

I thought she had made it up
because she missed William...

- The boy gave you this necklace?
- Yes.

- Can you help me out tomorrow?
- Yes.

- Do you still figure skate?
- Yes, I do.

Have a seat.

Will you tell me your name?

That girl...

Do you remember her?

This necklace...

You gave this to her, didn't you?

Marco.

Marco?

You knew what had happened
to her dad, didn't you?

And that's why you're running?

You saw something
you weren't meant to see.

Is he dead?

Marco, I could really use your help.

Do you remember
when you last saw him?

Do you think you could help me
find out where?

Yeah?

Is there something here?

Can you point the light this way?

We need the dogs over here.

This is useless.
We won't find anything.

Can I get some light over here?

The police believe
it to be William Stark -

- a public servant gone missing
following paedophilia charges.

Jacobsen, what led you
to the discovery of Stark's remains?

We can't comment any further.

William Stark... Someone ordered
and paid to have him murdered.

So far, so good.
But who?

This man.

- Why?
- Why not?

- What's his motive?
- Cut the crap. You sensed it, too.

He was lying.
And sweating like a pig.

- That's not enough.
- Marco identified this man. Zola.

He beat Stark until
he couldn't move anymore.

But he can't be the brains
behind the operation.

It goes further up.
Like our conspiracy theorist said.

- I say we bring him in.
- Let's do it.

Is it hot in here?

I admire people who spend their lives
helping the less fortunate.

I'm impressed
that you're involved in so much stuff.

Schools, hospitals, irrigation systems
and probably lots more.

Doesn't it feel good?

Aren't you even a little bit
proud of yourself?

I would be.

Our work can feel a bit meaningless
in the greater scheme of things.

Interviewing Teis Snap on the 3rd
of February. The time is 1:28 PM.

Present are Sergeant H. Assad
and Detective Carl Mørck.

What are you charging me with?
I understand this is an arrest?

- We'll get to that.
- You must be crazy.

- My lawyer is on his way.
- Yes, we know.

But we can talk until he gets here.

How much money is channelled
into Africa though this conference?

I don't know. Many millions.

Yes, that's what we figured.
Millions.

But maybe you can explain
something to me.

Stark goes to Africa to investigate
the disappearance of some funds.

Then he comes home and is killed.

Why? Because he's a paedophile?

No one believes that.

- Where are you going with this?
- I'll tell you.

We think you made up the paedophilia
story and had Stark killed.

- You're insane.
- You're not the first to tell us that.

How did you know
about Stark's hard drives?

How did you know that the photos
were on external hard drives?

"Several hard drives."
That's what you said.

I don't know.
I must have read it somewhere.

That's what we thought,
so we checked what had been written.

The location of those photos
was not made public.

Well, what do want me to say?

Where else would they be?
Is this why you brought me in?

I have 1,200 people waiting for me.

Bloody hell...

- Hello.
- Rose, we need to talk to Carl.

- He's doing an interrogation.
- Yes, but where?

I'll look up the room charts...

- Now! Let's go!
- Okay. Let's find him. Hello.

All right...
Quickly now.

Listen, Teis. We're going to get
to the bottom of this.

And once we do, you're finished.
As in completely finished.

No more DanAid, no more anything.

But right now you have a chance to do
the right thing and help yourself.

You have three kids and a wife,
don't you?

A good family life.
If I were you, I'd think about them.

All right. Let's stop now
and wait for my lawyer.

How did the fraud begin?

Look at this man.
Look at him. You know him.

You can't believe
that Zola will protect you?

He'll kill without blinking.
And you're next.

Tell us how you knew where Stark
was keeping those photos?

How did you know?

Is anyone else involved
other than you?

- I...
- Come on. Hey! Sit down.

- We know everything anyway.
- Come on, Teis!

Hello?

No...

- Oh, I'm sorry. Where can he be?
- Come on.

Did you meet him?
Where did you meet him?

Did you hire him to kill Stark?

Come on!

Did you have him kill Stark?
Come on, Teis!

Carl?

Did you hire him to kill Stark?

What did Stark know?
Tell us!

You're done here. Sorry for the
inconvenience. Come with me.

Those people are completely insane.

I'd like to see you in my office.

I stalled for as long as I could.

Shit.

- We have him. We do.
- You don't have shit.

- I'm forced to send you home.
- You're not serious?

- Indefinitely.
- What are you talking about?

Letting you come back to work
was a mistake.

Shut up and give me
half an hour more with him.

Stop it, Carl.
You don't have shit!

Where the hell is the evidence?
You're completely out of line.

You can't arrest a public servant
without evidence!

Don't touch me.

I'll need you to hand over
all your things. You know the drill.

And go see the bloody therapist.

I've spent my whole life on what?
Nothing at all.

No one gets it.

No one understands shit.

How things work...
We had him!

You don't want to see it, Jacobsen...
How hard can it be?

Rewind and look at it.
He...

If that's not a confession...

That department is nothing without me.

- Carl?
- Hi, Rose. I know it's late.

- I just had a thought.
- No worries.

The forest area where Stark's body
was found... Who owns it?

- The area belongs to... Two seconds.
- Yeah?

Tranfeldt Estate.
I think it's behind the forest.

- Who owns the estate?
- Karrebӕk Group International.

It's an international
construction and property company.

The founder and board director
is called Jens Brage-Schmidt.

It looks like he's lived on the estate
for many years. Since the 80s.

Thanks, Rose.
Sorry again. Goodnight.

BUSINESS PARTNERS

HOSPITAL, NIGERIA & TOGO

Assad! I've figured it out.

- Quit it, Carl.
- I've figured it out. Listen!

- Stop it. Go home and sleep.
- Just listen to me! This man...

Go home. You're on leave.
I'm on a short leash. Leave it.

Listen! This is Brage-Schmidt.

He owns the company
building the hospitals in Africa.

He also owns the area
where Stark's body was found.

It gets better.
Our friend Teis Snap -

- has worked
with Brage-Schmidt for 10 years.

He was his right hand until he switched
from NGO work to the Foreign Office.

The kingpin. The middle man.
The henchman.

A lot of money.

And then this boy.

- The boy who saw it all happen.
- Right. Okay?

I assume you haven't told Jacobsen?

No, because I'm hysterical
and on sick leave and unpredictable.

- So what do you want to do?
- Let's go see Brage-Schmidt.

- Right?
- Okay. Let's do it.

- Teis?
- Sorry to come barging in.

That's all right.

- Is it under control?
- Yes, I should think so.

- No loose ends?
- No, it's just as you asked.

No tell-tales left.

Do you remember this?

The clinics in Uganda.

The first project you were involved in.

I really believed in it back then.

Is that how you want to play it now?
Nostalgia, remorse, guilt and all that?

You're young. I don't expect you to
understand what it's like to look back.

Spare me the bullshit.
You got exactly what you wanted.

I never meant for it to come to this.

No.
Do you mind if I have a brandy?

I'm sorry, Jens.

Idiot!

He starts talking about Africa, and...

...the good old days.

What a fucking idiot.
Could you help me with these?

- You should show more respect.
- What are you talking about?

Everything he has created
and done for Denmark.

And for Africa.
Schools, wells, hospitals.

- Regardless of what came after.
- Oh, please.

There's no reason not to maintain
a small degree of decency.

I think it's a bit late for that!
What the hell is wrong with you?

Do you think this is a joke? You
both knew what you were getting into.

There are only actions
and consequences.

No noble thoughts or intentions.
He saw an opportunity and took it.

Just like us. He probably
didn't think it would end like this.

But if you have sticky fingers
you just might have to face the music.

So please stop talking about
decency and Denmark and all that shit.

And now, pretty please,
help me with this, thank you kindly!

You're right, I was wrong.

Teis... There were some problems
with the passports.

- No, there weren't.
- I did everything I could.

- What kind of problems?
- Logistical.

- Do you mind explaining that to me?
- You can take a look for yourself.

There you are.

- One passport? You're not going?
- Goodbye, Teis.

- Zola, what are you doing?
- You're going to Kill her.

Throw her in the car!

Come on, hurry.

Come on.

Assad, I want you to know that
I'm grateful that you're coming with me.

Brage-Schmidt must be involved.
It can't be a coincidence.

Right...

What the fuck?
Turn off the high beams, moron!

William Stark was found in his forest.
Call me crazy if it's not connected.

- Could you call Jacobsen?
- What should I tell him?

Tell it like it is.

- Yes?
- Rose, you're on speaker.

I've looked at the surveillance tapes,
and it was Zola. They took Marco.

- Bloody hell.
- Yes, it's not good.

- What about Mona?
- It's really bad.

- Will she live?
- I don't know, Carl.

- Where are you?
- Ten minutes away. Where are you?

- We're trying to cut them off.
- See you soon.

Shit. Fucking police.

Shit.

Bastards.

Shit! You've fucked up...

- We need to get out of here!
- Forget it! Stay put!

Calm down and turn the engine off.
Exit the vehicle. Put the weapon down.

Stop the engine.
Exit your vehicle!

Exit your vehicle!

- Let's go!
- No one gets out!

You can go.
But nobody else.

Dad! Get an ambulance!

Don't shoot! I surrender!

- Come here. Down!
- Stop!

Carl? In the forest. Now!

Aim for the tyres!

- Dad!
- Shit!

Let me go!

Help. Help!

We need an ambulance
and some backup right now.

Marco?

- Hey...
- Drop the gun!

Okay. Take it easy.

Listen, Zola,
I know you didn't mean to kill Stark.

You were hired to threaten him,
and things got out of hand.

That's what happened, right?
Just like now?

But now you have me, so let the boy go.

Let him go.
The others are on their way.

They probably have you
in their sights.

If you have me,
they won't shoot. I promise.

You know
they don't care about gypsies.

But they take
really good care of policemen.

Let the boy go.

Let the boy go.
Let him go.

Okay.
Get lost, Marco. Go!

Dad! Dad.

Thank you.

- I'm not stupid, okay?
- No one thinks you are.

- I didn't do it!
- I know. It was an accident.

Drop the gun, or I'll shoot!

- I'll count to three!
- Drop it, Assad.

Drop it, Assad!

Drop it, Assad!

One, two...

Are you okay?

Are you mental?

Don't ever do that again.

We're looking
for Teis Snap nationwide.

We need to retract
all paedophilia charges against Stark.

- All charges will be dropped.
- No, we need a proper press release.

- That family shouldn't be tainted.
- Of course not.

- Hey?
- Yes?

Marco and his dad...
Can we do anything for them?

I'll see what I can do.
See you Monday.

The remains of DanAid's Teis Snap
were found last night.

- You look like her.
- He was found at Brage-Schmidt's.

You have the same haircut.

Snap is believed to have set the fire
and then perished in the flames.

Snap is suspected of taking part
in at least two more killings.

One being that of William Stark.

It's an awful story.

All I can say is that
he was very competent and well-liked.

All those other things...
I don't understand that at all.

It was a tragic surprise for all of us.
You'll have to excuse me now.

The killings are believed to be
connected to a major case of fraud -

- which Snap is believed to be behind.
We've tried to get a comment from...

Gordon? It's Carl. I have a question.

- Are our cars equipped with cameras?
- Let me check yours. Two seconds.

You're driving an Audi A4 from 2009...
Yes, it should have a camera.

- I have a camera in my car?
- Yes, it's on the rear-view mirror.

There should be a box
in the boot with the hard drive in it.

Oh yeah, I know that.

- Call me if you're having trouble.
- Thank you.

I just have a few comments...

DETECTIVE CARL MØRCK
IS WAITING FOR YOU

Well, er...
You'll have to excuse me.

Watch your head.

It was the locals
that did it after all.

- Here.
- Thanks, Dad.

Look at that waterfall over there.

We're almost home.
