Previously...

I read up on the previous owner. I found out he strangled two kids.

May I ask you something ? You need to help Hanne and me with a séance.

- Someone pounced on me. - Jessan's gone.

- Forget the hocus pocus. - I wish I'd never gone with you.

- Someone's placed an anonymous bid. - Let me go, for fuck's sake !

We've got to get them out of here.

Hanne had a little brother. He drowned.

- She's on medication. - It's sleep paralysis.

- Were you in our room ? - Why would I do that ?

It's an antipsychotic drug for schizophrenia.

- I know what the note says. - Kill or be killed.

Help...

Hello !

Stop it ! Let go ! Take the belt ! Let go of the belt !

- Help ! Lippi ! Lippi, help ! - What's going on ?

Get her legs, get her legs. Stop it ! Jessan, stop it !

Take the belt.

Tie her up.

- No, no, no. Everyone out ! - She needs a sedative.

Come on.

Come on. Let's go.

BLACK LAKE

But what shall we do ? Someone has to come and sort this out.

She's completely lost it.

- But I have to know roughly... - Does it hurt ?

- No, it's OK. - OK...

- I don't get what's wrong with her. - Look up.

I don't get what happened.

The closest patrol is 300 km away.

We'll have to wait until tomorrow.

What a great fucking séance. Really.

We should get some sleep. There's not so much we can do.

- Frank, you can stay with Lippi ? - Sure.

- I'll keep Jessan's key. Is that OK ? - Do that.

Hanne...

...the storm is affecting western Norway,

from Bergen down to Stavanger.

Bergen airport has cancelled 27 flights.

- I can't keep creeping around. - Shut up.

I can't keep creeping around any more.

- Lippi... - Shut up !

...out towards Trøndelag, that is, the area...

How fucking long can it take ?

Hanne.

Hanne.

Hanne.

Yes ?

Can you give me some water ? My throat's so dry.

OK. I'll be right back.

Water...

OK...

Thanks.

It wasn't me.

The voice in my dream told me to kill him, not me.

Now I know what "Gäädek Jäämit" means.

It means: Kill or be killed.

- I love Frank. - I know...

But when I was sitting there on top of him...

I really wanted to strangle him. I got a thrill from it.

Do you want some more water ? I'll get you some more water.

...how hard it is to get here. The nearest hospital is miles away.

- Hanne, listen to me. - Help !

- Help ! - Unlock the door ! Open up !

You'll die if you don't kill someone. That's the curse. Kill or be killed.

Open the door ! Hello ? Come on.

Get away before it's too late. Before he comes to you in a dream.

- Open the door ! - Before who... who comes ?

Hey, open the door !

Jessan... Please, open the door !

The police are on their way. Please, open the door !

- We'll have to keep guard. - What do you mean, "keep guard" ?

- We can't let her out of here. - No...

We'll have to... We'll have to take this and barricade the door.

What were you thinking, going in there alone ? What did you talk about ?

Mikkhel.

That's the curse. Kill or be killed.

If Jessan doesn't kill Frank, she'll die.

- OK, says who ? - Mikkhel.

Mikkhel ? Maybe she wrote it herself. It's written on their wall too.

Maybe so, but she didn't do this. It's someone drowning themselves.

Stop feeling guilty about Jacob. You see him everywhere.

This isn't Jacob. It's Helgesen. He drowned himself. I just found out.

Hanne, stop it. You sound just like yourself two years ago.

Forget two years ago. Come here.

- "M"... ? - Mikkhel. She made contact with him.

I think Jessan's psychotic. She's on antipsychotic medication.

Maybe Mikkhel is one of the children that was murdered.

Who were strangled by Helgesen, who drowned himself afterwards.

- She's on antipsychotic drugs... - I have to find out.

I have to find out if one of the children was called Mikkhel.

I have to find out and find out what he wants. He wants something.

- Are you drinking ? - What ? No...

Can I borrow the car ? I want to go for a drive.

No, you can't. I need it here in case something happens to Jessan.

- You've got Frank's car. - No, Osvald has that.

OK...

- Osvald, can I borrow the car keys ? - No...

- Why not ? - Lippi and I are going on a trip.

Can't you do that another time ? What I have to do is important.

- How's your eye ? Is it still red ? - I've got a fucking infection.

- You've not had a dream or... ? - I don't know.

Don't you know ?

Please, Osvald, I promise I'll be quick.

OK ?

- Thanks. - Don't mention it.

Wasn't it your contacts ?

- What ? My contacts ? - Wasn't it your contacts rubbing ?

No, I got infected by Lippi when we were having sex.

He choke-fucked me. It was great.

OK...

Oy. What the fuck are you playing at ? Look at me when I'm talking to you.

I was in the closet for my entire school life. I don't want it back.

- So you're taking it out on me ? - Am I taking it out on you ?

- Is that a good way to say it ? - Will there ever be a good way ?

Either you say it, or I say it, or we just forget the whole thing.

- Has she said anything ? - No.

Anyway, the police are on their way.

I can take the last watch if you want.

Hello ? Two seconds.

- It's Erkki. - Hello ?

The police are on their way. Get dressed.

I understand. We'll be right there.

- Would you like some coffee ? - No. I've got your tape.

You can report me if you like, but I don't know how legal it is

for a retired cop to have evidence lying around at home.

- What do you want ? - I want to know about the family.

- I want to know their names. - Johansson.

Yes, I know that. I want to know what their first names were.

Tore Johansson. The family was called Johansson.

He worked for the municipality.

He gave permission to Helgesen for the renovation of the property.

And by way of thanks, he let him come up here with his family to go skiing.

That's not right. I'm looking for a child called Mikkhel.

Linda. They were called Linda and Sofie.

Linda and Sofie were their names. They were six and ten years old.

What about the father ? Was he called Mikkhel ?

Tore ! Tore Johansson. It was his family.

They all got strangled. They sat there holding hands.

Was that in a hotel room, then ?

In the cellar.

- Why is the investigation here ? - Helgesen. I'm looking for Helgesen.

But he drowned.

I took him round the scene of the crime.

We'd already found the bodies, but his cross-examination was so confused

that we had to check the details he gave.

He showed us where the bodies were found but he was so muddled.

He wondered why the bodies weren't there.

It was like he was afraid that he hadn't done it.

That he hadn't killed them.

- Where are they ? Where are they ? - What the fuck... ?

There was only one way down, we knew that.

But he got out via a ventilation duct and got hold of a car.

The estates manager's car.

- Whose car ? - The estates manager.

- Erkki. - Erkki...

We found the car later.

It was standing on the road over Svartsjödammen, but it was empty.

There were footprints leading from the car over the ice.

If he'd fallen into the water, his body would have got trapped.

But we never found the body.

- No, no, honey. - I just want to talk to Jessan...

- What's happened ? - The police forced the door...

They found Jessan inside.

It's as you say. No one's gone in or out. I'll have to take this with me.

You'll get it back, OK ?

Sure, take it...

We've got to strike while the iron's hot. Pile on the ghost stories.

- Scare the shit out of the girl. - I think she's scared enough.

Get on your scooter with your brother and piss off from our property.

You don't own it. Erkki's the manager here.

We're just helping him with a snow scooter.

Once I've bought this place, I'll buy your workshop and shut it down.

Think you're tough, eh ? Just wait until the police have gone.

- I want to go home. - No, let's go in and talk. Come on.

I understand that we're all upset and shocked about what's happened.

And if anyone wants to go home... of course.

But I'm staying. I have to, I've got to see this through.

My wish is that we all stay.

And that we support each other and stick together.

I'd like to feel that I had your support.

- Of course. I'm staying. - Thank you.

For how long ?

For the rest of the week if we get notification about the purchase.

OK. I'll stay.

I think it's sick to stay. It's sick.

Leaving now won't bring Jessan back.

I don't think Jessan would have wanted us to leave now.

Sure she would've.

That's what she said to me before she died. She said we had to leave.

She warned me.

She told me it was about killing people, otherwise you die yourself.

Now you've got a red eye, so you could be next.

No ! Jessan wasn't mentally ill.

- She made contact with Mikkhel. - Hanne, can't you sit down ?

- Who... What's Mikkhel ? - Mikkhel is a myling.

I thought he was one of the children that died, but he's not.

He's a myling. He's tried to contact us. He made contact. Stop it !

Just hang on a second, please. Frank.

Sorry, but you know as well as we do that Jessan wasn't well.

The police say that it was suicide. That she killed herself.

So please, can't we drop this ghost stuff now ?

Excuse me.

Sorry for interrupting but it's possible that a storm's on its way.

I can't promise that I can heat up the entire building for you.

The best thing might be for you to drive back to Stockholm.

Isn't this a fucking bad time for you to stick your oar in ?

You're a liar. You've been here for 20 years, you know what's going on !

Can't you tell them what's happening ? What's in the cellar ?

You want us to leave, right ? Isn't that so ?

You're looking to buy the property yourself.

I've spoken to my lawyer. This is the fucking clown who placed the bid.

The seller didn't accept the bid. Did you think you could afford it ?

Which is why you've been doing that scary stuff. You've scared them.

Because you want us to leave. There's no storm on its way.

It's going to get cold, and there's a big fucking difference, right ?

- It's up to Frank if we stay. - Of course we're staying.

It's up to you, Frank. You call the shots around here.

This is what we'll do. You decide.

Do you want us to stay and see this through, or do you want to go home ?

We're staying, yeah ? And doing this.

- Frank thinks we should stay. - Hanne...

...but we stay and carry on as normal, I reckon.

Sure, what happened to her is terrible but she... She wasn't well.

So... Have you seen the clip I sent ?

I think it'll be bloody great. But now's the time to strike.

- Here. - Thanks.

It's sometimes good to speak your mind.

I've never felt for anyone the way I felt for Jessan.

She was so fucking lovely.

I think I loved her.

I don't want...

Hanne ? Hanne ?

Hi...

Hi...

Erkki says that a storm's on its way.

He says we should leave. What do you think ?

You should go.

What's going on between you and Jostein ?

Nothing.

You can't throw away what you have with Johan.

I know he treats you bad at times, but he'll grow out of it.

Hanne, he worships you. He'd do anything...

He can give you the world. He can give you a family.

What kind of future do you see with Jostein ?

That feeling of being in love lasts 18 months.

Then the brain chemistry goes back to exactly what it was.

What will you do then ? Find someone new ?

Find someone new again...

However long you search you'll never find what you're looking for.

You won't get Jacob back. I also think of him.

You've got to put it behind you. You've got to stop feeling guilty.

You've got to be grateful for the life you've got.

I know...

But I'm at least living my life.

Look at you...

You just run around pointing fingers.

You know who's sick, you know who does wrong.

You know everything.

How are you feeling, inside ?

If anyone's not living their life it's you.

Come on, Hanne. I'm trying.

I'm really trying. Lars and I...

I fell pregnant...

...but I lost the baby.

That gave him an excuse to leave at last.

- I had no idea. - I didn't tell you.

If the baby had been...

It doesn't matter if it had been healthy or sick,

I'd have loved it more than anything.

I know. I had no idea...

I love you, Hanne.

I just want you to be happy.

For the past two years... You and him, there's a radiance about you.

You've never been so balanced or calm as since you met him.

But being calm isn't the same thing as living your life.

I want to live my life to the full.

Come here...

Osvald. Time to celebrate.

- Hiya. - Hi.

So, you've bought this place.

- I just heard. - Exactly.

I was thinking I might offer my services as a janitor.

I know this place inside out. So... what do you say ?

Oh... Well...

No.

You can have some champagne, and we can drink a toast, you and me.

- Here. - Yes...

Well, then...

- Well... You're in charge now. - Exactly.

Bye.

Well, good morning. Here. Let's drink a toast.

No ? OK.

What ?

You said you knew nothing about the family. Why did you lie ?

I didn't want to cause you unnecessary alarm.

I'm a man of manners.

So tell me if anyone called Mikkhel ever lived here.

- No one's lived here for 20 years. - Wasn't it a sanatorium before that ?

Maybe there was someone called Mikkhel then.

I don't know. I was taken on by Helgesen when he started renovating.

What happened before Helgesen came I don't know.

- Mikkhel ? - Yes.

It's a common name.

Next week...

- We can't find Osvald. - Osvald !

- I'll show you that we mean business. - I'll sort it out.

It 32 degrees below zero out there. They'll have to leave soon.

Do you realise how much money we can make ?

You weren't thinking of running away, were you ?

Stop !
