THE SECRET WOMAN

2 YEARS LATER

BASED ON ANNA EKBERG'S DEN HEMMELIGE KVINDE

- Hey. - There's the Dane.

Good morning, Louise.

- Here you go. - Wow!

They're gorgeous.

Wow.

Is your mom feeling any better?

- A bit. - Right.

As soon as she's feeling well enough, bring her for cocoa at the café?

- Deal? - Deal.

Balder?

- Did we agree on 800? - Yes.

- Say hi to your mom. - Sure.

See you.

- Good morning. - Hi!

Right! Let's see what you've got.

Perfect!

What a stunner.

- Crab for today's special. - Yeah.

- Great. Thanks. - I'll pop them in the kitchen.

A COMPLETE GUIDE TO POLICE PROCEDURE

Good morning.

- Hi… - Did you have a late night?

Did I wake you?

- No, not at all. - Are you sure?

Yes.

Get any writing done? Or did you get distracted?

I don't know what to say.

- The pyramids again? - No.

No?

Much worse, I'm afraid. I did a deep dive into Mount Kailash.

It's a sacred mountain in Tibet, you know?

There are lots of stories about temporal distortions.

- I love my little nerd. - Thanks.

And then there are conspiracy theories…

We're now arriving at the island of Tysnes.

It's a small island with just 2,400 inhabitants,

but one with deep roots in Norse history.

Around the island, we will…

- Thanks. Great food. - Say hi at home.

- I will. - See you.

- Louise? - Yes?

That guy's been staring at you for a while.

I get it, because you're super beautiful.

- He's coming over. - Great.

Helene? It's me, Peter.

- We used to work together. - I'm sorry, but I'm not Helene.

- What do you mean? - My name's Louise.

That's me.

Louise Andersen.

- My apologies. - No, that's fine.

You must have a doppelgänger then.

Congratulations to Joachim and Louise. Cheers.

Here we go. Dinner's served!

Unfortunately, I have to give a speech.

We're engaged now. She said yes!

Luckily. Finally.

It's just a cheap ring.

We've been here for almost two years now,

and I've never felt more at home than I feel with you guys.

You're welcome.

Thanks.

Louise, you're a magical person.

Mystical. And magical.

But I just feel like I've spent so much of my life

just thinking about the stupid books I'm writing but never finish.

I always just do the research.

That was all I've managed. But that's all behind me now.

You give my life meaning.

Every single day.

I love you so much.

I love you.

Right! I'm going to propose a toast.

- To the two of you and to love. - Cheers!

- Who is that? - It's that guy again.

Who?

There was a Danish man today. He stared at Louise.

He thought I was someone he knew.

- Okay? - I don't really want to talk to him again.

Well, then he'll just have to leave.

- Yes? - Hi. I'd like to talk to Helene.

Sure, but there is nobody called Helene here, so…

Listen. I have something important to tell her.

It's about her past. Okay?

Sorry, but wrong number as they say in Danish…

Okay.

Really unpleasant.

- Yes. - You haven't seen him before?

I don't know.

I don't know if I've seen him before. I don't think so, but I…

Hey. What's going on?

Is your memory coming back?

I don't know. He just made me feel…

…scared.

If that man has somehow jolted your memory…

If you're beginning to remember, please just say and we'll talk about it.

Yes.

Thanks.

Let's go to sleep.

HAVE GONE TO THE MAINLAND.

I'LL CATCH THE LAST FERRY BACK THIS AFTERNOON. I LOVE YOU!

Louise, you're here because you have doubts about your identity.

That's right.

And a few years ago, you were found unconscious by the harbor?

Yes. Or no… They found me onboard a ship when it arrived at the harbor.

And you were seriously injured?

Yes. I'd hit my head and neck as well as hurt my arm and ribs.

And you did not recall how you ended up on the ship?

No.

I was hospitalized for a long time.

The doctors quickly ascertained that I suffered from amnesia.

How did they find out who you were?

I had a bag with me.

There were a few things and my ID in it. It proved who I was.

Louise Andersen?

Yes.

And Danish police readily accepted that you were Louise Andersen?

Yes, because I told them it was true.

I said I was Louise, and that I was remembering things again.

- And did you? - No. I had no idea who I was.

- Why didn't you say so? - That's hard to explain, but I…

I was scared.

I didn't know who I was, and I just wanted it to be true.

Did you look into it yourself?

I looked on the internet, but I didn't find anything.

- Nothing? - Louise Andersen is a common name.

Didn't the police contact your next of kin?

- I didn't have anyone. - You didn't have any relatives?

No. It turned out that I'd lived a rough life.

The police only found arrest records for prostitution in Copenhagen.

I've a feeling that I was on the run back then.

That's why I'm here now.

I'd like to know who I am and what happened.

All right.

Let's take a DNA test then.

Your real name is Helene Söderberg.

You disappeared from your family in Denmark just over two years ago.

Danish police have been looking for you ever since.

A lot of people have been looking for you.

And you're married.

You have a son.

I do?

- Hi. Joachim Bjørndal? Iben Rask. - Hi. Yes.

Could you repeat that please?

She had ID on her when they found her,

so the matter was not thoroughly investigated.

She also confirmed that she was Louise Andersen.

Where's Louise now then? Or is that not her name then?

No. Helene is here at the psychiatric ER.

You're welcome to see her, but it's important for me to say

that we are absolutely certain.

We did a DNA test.

We contacted Danish police, and they confirm it.

We've also just notified her Danish family.

She has a family?

I'm sorry. Sometimes, a shorter last name would have been handy.

- Mr. Söderberg? Sorry to interrupt. - Yes?

There's an important phone call for you.

Would you excuse me?

He'll be back in a minute.

Yes?

Yes?

- Did the police talk to you yet? - Yes, I think they told me everything, so…

It'll be all right.

I think Helene is a beautiful name, so…

We'll work it out.

I have to meet them.

Yeah.

I have a child.

I'm somebody's mom.

I have to go to Denmark and figure out what happened.

Of course.

I understand.

But I love you no matter what.

And we're getting married.

- There you go. Are you excited? - Yes, very!

You look nice.

Let me see you.

- Yes. - There you go.

Please be careful. Don't blame her.

She has been through quite the ordeal. She must be very confused.

We're here, Mrs. Söderberg.

Is that her?

Yes.

Looks like it.

Hi.

- Hi. - Welcome.

Do you want to say hi to Mom?

Alexander?

Let's say hi?

Don't you want to say hi? Come on?

- Alexander? - I'll go and get him.

Yes, well… This is my mother.

Yes. Caroline.

I'm so glad you're back home.

- Would you check on him please? - Sure.

He'll be okay.

And I am Edmund.

- I did figure that, yes. - This is all a bit awkward.

Well…

Do you want to go inside?

Sure. I'd love to.

Let me grab…

Thanks.

Here you go.

This is your childhood home. You grew up here with your dad.

That's you and your dad.

This is the piano room, where you rehearsed as a child.

And this was your dad's office.

- Do you recognize anything? - No, sorry. Not really.

No. Well, they warn us.

I'd hoped that once you saw Alexander and me,

something would fall into place…

The therapists say it may yet happen.

Let's hope so.

Thanks.

What happened when I disappeared?

Your dad died shortly before you disappeared.

He was very ill and deteriorated quite rapidly.

You… nursed him but it was quite the ordeal.

It was as if the death of your father unleashed a darkness in you.

You were medicated.

And I think you secretly stopped taking your pills.

So you felt increasingly worse.

Then you disappeared, and I spent months looking for you.

It never occurred to me to look abroad, which I'll regret for the rest of my life.

Helene, this is hard for me to say, but…

In the end, I was convinced that you had committed suicide.

You'd mentioned suicide.

I'm sorry it all got so heavy. I didn't mean to get into all that now.

No, it's fine… I asked.

I'm sorry.

Would it be okay if I went up to see him?

Of course. Up the stairs, first door on your right.

- Thanks. - Sure.

Alexander?

You don't remember me at all?

I will eventually.

Did you miss me?

Somewhere in here, I did.

But I'm here now.

And I'm not going away again.

Okay?

Alexander…

You never call me Alexander.

Then what do I call you?

You don't remember at all?

I'm trying.

Lovebug.

Lovebug.

Of course.

Iben Rask speaking.

Hello. This is Joachim. We met at the psychiatric ER.

Hello, Joachim.

- Hi. - How are you getting on?

I just think it's all a bit weird. Something's just not right.

Are you sure that's not the crime writer in you talking?

No, but… Have you looked up Helene Söderberg?

Yes, I have.

And what did you find?

- Well, I didn't find much. - Exactly. Nothing.

I've been at it for four hours. There's nothing.

No social media. Nothing. It's odd.

Well, I fundamentally agree with you.

And then there's this woman whose identity she assumed.

- The real Louise. Who and where is she? - That case is with the Danish police now.

Right, so…

Do you have a contact person for me there?

Sure.

Your grandmother will be up in a minute.

- Good night. - Good night.

Helene?

Is he asleep?

No.

But he let me read him a book.

Your mother will stay with him until he's asleep.

He's become a little…

anxious after you went missing.

This wine…

You like this one a lot. You used to, anyway.

I see.

- Cheers. - Cheers.

Nice, right?

How long have we been married?

I've probably been told, but it's all such a blur.

- Going on eight years. - Right.

And how did we meet?

I worked at your father's company and… Well, we both did.

And now it's our company.

We're both on the executive board.

- Something to do with shipping? - Yes, shipping.

We're the fourth-largest shipping company in Scandinavia.

And what did I do?

You were the CFO. And you were brilliant. Very sharp.

- So, finance? - Yes.

- That's my educational background? - Yes.

I have a café on the island.

Business and accounting came easily to me.

There you go.

I don't run it alone. The café. I…

I run it with my boyfriend. Or rather, my fiancé.

Yes, I… know.

Joachim.

Yeah.

I see that you…

You're wearing his ring?

How do you feel about that?

I'm just pleased to have you home.

And I'm glad that Alexander has his mom back.

And we'll just figure out the rest as we go along, right?

- Right. - But…

There is something I'd like to show you. Bring your wine.

- Come along. - Okay.

We had this movie made for your birthday a few years ago.

It's the story of you.

HELENE AT 40

- Hi! - Hi.

I'm flying!

You grew up here with your father after your mother died.

She very sadly suffered from cancer when you were quite young.

But your father adored you and gave you everything you wanted.

You were completely inseparable.

And you and I, we met at the office.

And I…

I was completely intimidated by you. The boss's beautiful daughter.

But I won your heart.

We were madly in love. Nothing could come between us.

Feel it. He's kicking now. There.

And then we became a real family when Alexander came along.

We were so happy.

I've made up the bed for you in the main bedroom.

And I'll make up a guest room for Edmund.

Isn't that the most appropriate solution?

- Caroline? - Yes?

Thank you for taking such good care of Alexander.

But of course.

It's been my pleasure. He's such a lovely little boy.

Was I…

Was I a good mother?

You were just as you should be.

You loved him. You supported him.

I just don't understand how I could have forgotten him.

Or how you can forget giving birth to a child.

You never had any idea or inkling?

- Maybe a little. Sometimes. - Well, there you go.

Your mind was playing tricks on you, but your heart remembered him.

You mustn't blame yourself.

And you're here now.

Sleep tight.

Goodnight.

Hi.

Hey.

So? How is it going?

It's intense.

I can imagine.

But what's it like there?

Are they nice? Are they taking good care of you?

It's… really big here.

Grand.

And they're really nice.

Especially Alexander.

Right.

But have you found any answers or…

I suppose that was the reason you went to Denmark?

No. Right now I'm just trying to navigate it all.

We need to figure out what happened when you disappeared, right?

You ended up on a cargo ship. It's just absurd.

Joachim, I…

I'm going to need some time.

I can't handle any more right now. The rest will have to wait.

Okay?

Yes, of course.

I love you.

I love you.

I'll be in touch. Bye.

- Bye, grandma! - See you later.

Bye!

Hi, David.

Hi, Alexander.

Look, this is my mom.

- Hi, what's your name? - Hi, guys. I'm Helene.

- She came back two days ago. - Where was she?

Hi. Are these your friends?

- Have you been here before? - No, I haven't.

- I've been to Norway too. - Okay.

It's so beautiful.

Kids, time to get inside!

- See you. - See you later, lovebug. Have a nice day.

- See you. - Have a nice day, Mom!

Are you sure you're ready for this?

Yes. I'm hoping it will help me remember.

- Hi, Helene. Good to have you back. - Thanks.

- Good morning. - Good morning.

Hi, Helene. So good to see you again.

Thanks.

Beautiful flowers.

Is everything okay?

It's just… That man looks a lot like the one who recognized me in Norway.

Well, it is him. He works in our compliance department.

He was vacationing in Norway when he saw you.

Fortunately for us.

- Welcome back, Helene. - Thanks.

This is the last known photo of Louise Andersen.

We sent the same to the Norwegian police.

They identified her, so… Well, that was that.

Right, but who is she? Who is Louise Andersen?

We know very little about her. We know she worked as a prostitute.

We've registered her missing, but people in that world tend to disappear.

Do you think Helene and Louise look alike?

- There are similarities. - Yes?

Height, hair color, eye color.

But the officers responsible had no reason to suspect

that she wasn't who it said on her ID.

But then why didn't you search more for Helene Söderberg?

There weren't that many leads.

And we had reasons to believe that she committed suicide.

- What reasons? - A history of mental illness.

At the time of Helene's disappearance, she was suffering from severe psychosis.

Hello, Mrs. Söderberg.

- Edmund showed you to your old office? - Yes.

Ingrid.

- You really don't remember me? - No, sorry.

We'll just have to start over then.

Ingrid Jensen. I've been your secretary these last few years.

- And my father's secretary? - Yes.

That is, until he fell ill and you took over.

I'm so sorry,

but we were told to be careful when discussing the past with you.

You don't have to worry about that.

It's fine. I'm actually trying my best to retrieve my memories.

Well, then maybe…

Perhaps you should take a look at this.

It's an anniversary book celebrating the first ten years of the company.

Okay.

AKSEL SÖDERBERG FOUNDER

I've brought you a little of everything. Annual and quarterly accounts.

All of it is just for information.

To ease you back into it.

- Those first pages are… - The management report.

Exactly.

So, you do recall some details?

Yes.

Hi. Would you find all articles featuring these keywords for me?

Of course.

- Nothing? - No, there are no results.

Hard copies of articles?

Let me see what I can find.

- Sure. - Thank you so much.

Come here, you!

Gotcha!

Alexander!

- Ready, Dad? - We're ready.

- Ready? - Yes.

You got it? I've got it.

We got him!

- You got him! - We beat you, Dad!

- We got him. - Right!

Watch out!

Yes!

Well done.

- Just a moment! - High five! All right.

Sorry, I have to take this.

No, Dad…

Hello? Right…

Your shoelaces are untied.

You're good at tennis.

Thanks.

- Are you still mad at Dad? - What do you mean?

You were yelling at him. Before you disappeared.

- You remember that? - Yes.

It was at night.

Sometimes grown-ups argue.

It doesn't mean it's anything serious.

I think you were arguing about me.

No, none of this is your fault.

Understand?

Okay.

- Can I taste it? - Go ahead.

- Delicious, right? - Yeah.

I made you this on our very first date.

I've missed you.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

- I didn't mean to… - No, no, it's okay.

You're not ready. It's fine.

Please know…

Helene? Is everything okay?

Yes.

Let's get you to bed.

My father was up here, wasn't he?

When he got ill, we moved him to the tower room.

For the forest view.

You said it soothed him.

Do you know if…

Did he tell me anything at the end?

- I mean, right before he died? - No, I don't, my dear.

I didn't know your father that well.

SUSPICIOUS DEATH DIED IN HIS OWN HOME

- Where did you get these? - At the Royal Danish Library.

Everything digital has been erased, which is very strange in itself.

I had to dig up newspapers and make copies.

Yes. And how can I help?

I wanted to ask if you ever looked into that?

Which part?

The part with Helene's father. How he died.

It says here. He was found dead at home.

We looked into it but ruled it an accident.

- There is nothing more to it. - Well, I have more…

Louise… Helene was found on a ship.

That ship.

Did any of you look into how she got on board?

You mean how she got on board a Norwegian ship several years ago?

- I mean… How would I know? - No, I understand that, but I…

I know something is wrong!

Do you understand? You have to help me.

My best guess is she just boarded from some harbor.

If I were you, I'd locate the ship's log and then you can check its route.

There's nothing else we can do.

Ten, thirty…

What about that one?

Alexander, we need to go. Go get ready?

Okay.

Good morning.

I'll get him ready.

Your mother seems so caring.

I'm glad she was here for Alexander while I was gone.

Yes.

By the way… I was thinking…

When we spoke about my father… You didn't tell me how he died.

You and Alexander were alone in the house that day.

And no one really knows what happened.

But your father must have been trying to leave his room when he… fell.

Fell down the stairs.

- And I was the one who found him dead? - Yes.

I've been withholding the details as it was terribly traumatizing for you.

Helene… I don't want you to disappear into the darkness again.

1974 - EMPLOYEES AT THE WILDERS STREET OFFICES

Ingrid, do you know why there are pages missing?

No, I don't.

I think I have a copy at home from when I first started.

I could check for those missing pages?

That would be great. Thank you.

- Ingrid? - Yes?

What was I doing in the days before I disappeared?

I think it's best that you talk with your husband about that time.

I would just really like to hear your perception of what happened.

I only know what you told me yourself.

Yes?

In the weeks before your father's passing, he wanted to tell you something.

On his deathbed.

He drifted in and out of consciousness and kept forgetting what he'd said.

You never did get it all out of him before he died.

In the last days before your disappearance…

you were completely consumed by it.

How? What was I doing?

You were convinced that he'd been trying to warn you.

About something you needed to know before he died

and you took over the company.

Then, after he died you started combing through everything.

All of our contracts, transactions, clients, routes. Everything.

You became more and more… I hate to tell you, but…

It seemed sort of manic.

You worked 24/7.

What did Edmund do?

Well, he…

He tried to ease your mind.

Assure you that nothing was wrong.

Then that's why I disappeared.

I'm sorry?

Because I discovered something. Not because my father's death broke me.

I can only tell you what I observed.

I'd like to know exactly what I was doing before I disappeared.

- What I was working on and who I met with. - Right.

- I'll have to dig up your old calendar. - Thanks.

But I do remember one thing. You last meeting was with the bank.

I remember it was very important to you.

I remember finding it curious that you weren't meeting with our regular branch.

Okay.

Could you get me the name of the bank? And my calendar?

Of course.

Mrs. Söderberg.

It's been a while.

- Good to see you again. - Likewise.

How can we help you today?

Last time I was here…

What did we talk about?

You mean when you set up your safe-deposit box?

Yes. Exactly.

What was our agreement back then?

We didn't have an agreement as such. You just set up a safe-deposit box.

Without you husband's knowledge.

Yes, exactly.

PRENUPTIAL AGREEMENT

Yes, Ingrid?

- I found your old calendar. - Yes?

Before you disappeared, you had a meeting with Elisabeth Fauerskov.

- Does that ring a bell? - No, who is she?

She was the CEO of one of our subcontractors. JM Shipping.

- And I believe she knew your husband. - Okay?

- I'll send you her number now. - Okay. Thank you. Bye.

- Bye. - Bye.

- Elisabeth Fauerskov. - Hi, Elisabeth. This is Helene Söderberg.

I wanted to ask…

I don't want to talk to you. Don't contact me.

SHIPPING ROUTE INFO

FYKSESUND BRIDGE

Charlie's not my dad…

Hi, I'm not available right now. Please leave a message.

Hi, it's me.

You can have all the time you need,

but I've found something very important that you really need to hear.

Call me as soon as you can.

- Thanks. - Cheers.

Cheers.

You wanted to talk about something?

Yes.

Were we getting a divorce?

Excuse me?

Before I went missing… Were we considering a divorce?

- What makes you think that? - I just got a feeling… A sort of memory.

A memory?

Yes.

Okay? Well, that's interesting.

- Were we getting a divorce then? - No!

No?

- Okay. - Hell no.

Who is Elisabeth Fauerskov?

She was the CEO of one of our subcontractors.

- Do you know her personally? - Yes. We went to school together.

Do you know why she won't talk to me then?

Now you've lost me.

She was one of the last people I spoke to before disappearing.

I tried calling her today. She wouldn't talk to me and just hung up.

There's a simple explanation for this.

We stopped working with them because they broke a non-compete clause,

so she's legally prevented from speaking with you.

I see.

My love…

Please don't let yourself get involved in all that again.

You lose yourself in a web of delusions leading nowhere.

- What? - You're very upset.

I'm not upset at all.

Were we arguing about her?

Alexander told me we were arguing before I disappeared…

Maybe we argued about her? Was there something going on?

You're imagining things. I mean, you sound paranoid.

- I'm just asking questions… - Okay.

I've tried telling you this as gently as possible, but I'll try again.

You are unwell.

What do you mean by that?

You suffer from some sort of personality disorder or schizophrenia.

The doctors think it might have been something dormant

awakened by your father's death.

Listen, I am not schizophrenic.

- But… - No!

- Then how do you explain it? - Explain what?

Helene, you left your family.

You went to Norway.

Assumed a new name.

- Started a completely new life. - Yes, I suffered from amnesia!

From when you hit your head.

- Yes. - Yes.

And then you woke up on a ship?

- Do you hear yourself? - Yes.

Those are not the actions of a sane person, are they?

- I'm not feeling well. I need some air. - Yes. Sit down. Try to…

- Let me go out. - Calm down.

- No, I just want some fresh air! - Sit down…

I want some fresh air! Will you please…

That's enough!

That's enough.

I won't let you…

destroy this family again.

There, there.

Let's go upstairs. You need to get a bit of rest.

- Hi. - Hello.

- I'm Joachim. - Joachim?

Yes. I assume you know who I am?

- Yes, I do. - Right…

I just wanted to talk to Helene.

She's sleeping. Sorry.

- Okay. She's sleeping now? - Yes. It's been a rough couple of days.

Yes, I can imagine…

So if you want to talk to her, you'll have to come back another time.

- I'll be back to talk to her tomorrow. - You know what? That might be too soon.

I'll have her get back to you as soon as possible.

But Joachim…

Since you're here there's actually something I'd like to discuss.

Do you have a minute?

- Sure. - Come on in.

This is my mother, Caroline.

Good evening.

Let's go in here.

Joachim…

- That's for her? Whatever that is? - Yes.

Yes. I've been trying to…

- To get an overview on all of this. - Yes. Of course.

- Shall we take a look at it together? - No, I'd like to speak with her…

Joachim…

Do you have any questions for me?

Since you're trying to get an… overview, as you call it.

I was wondering why you didn't go public with her disappearance.

That seems strange.

We were convinced that Helene had taken her own life.

And I didn't want that dragged through the press.

Especially considering Alexander, Helene's son.

- Okay. Then what about her father? - What about him?

- You also kept his death very quiet. - Yes, that's correct.

It was an unworthy death for a man of his caliber.

It really was, so we kept that quiet.

It's just… fascinating.

Fascinating?

How do you do it?

There are no search results.

It's like the whole family doesn't exist

Right, well… There's an explanation for that as well.

We've had it erased. A department in the company handles that.

But why?

We don't think the tragedies of the Söderberg family concern the public.

Joachim, I understand that this is hard for you.

You've lost someone you loved.

I can only tell you that unfortunately, and often against her will,

Helene ends up hurting people.

That's why I have a proposal.

Joachim…

I gather you had a café together?

Which is now closed? Because you can't run it yourself.

I've been told you've been working on a book for a few years?

I'm not sure what that has to do with anything.

Joachim, to speak plainly, I just want to help you out financially.

So I've drafted an agreement.

Which, financially speaking, is quite lucrative for you.

NDA

We'd like to ensure that the disappearance and the tragedy of our family

do not feature in a novel or a book or any kind of colorful narrative.

You and I have both been through some tragic events.

But this has hurt Alexander most of all. I've tried to shield him.

I intend to continue doing so.

You can keep your money. I'm leaving.

Tell me… Are you a bit intoxicated?

- Would you like to sit down a bit? - No, I'm not intoxicated.

You haven't had a drink?

- No. - Okay.

I'm not judging you.

It would be more than understandable if you've needed a drink or two.

Well, I haven't. I haven't needed anything.

- Okay. - Yes.

Bye.

- You'll see yourself out? - Yes.

Joachim…

Helene, what's wrong?

Helene, come with me, darling.

Let's get you back to bed.

What was that?

Edmund.

Edmund…

I know how he can be.

But do you know what?

When you disappeared… I've never seen him so devastated.

He loves you so much. You and Alexander are everything to him.

I'm not available right now. Please leave a message.

Come here!

Elisabeth?

INBOX - ELISABETH

I'VE CALLED SEVERAL TIMES. IT'S IMPORTANT. CALL ME, ELISABETH

Good morning.

Good morning.

Okay, so you'll start. And no peeking.

Coffee.

I need to take a call, then we'll go.

It's your turn.

- What am I drawing? - The body. Starting on the lines.

Okay.

Now it's your turn.

And it's done.

Okay.

Have a great day, okay?

And hey, I love you. You are the best thing in my life.

What is it?

That's what you said right before you disappeared.

Listen, I'm not going to disappear again.

Okay?

I'm never going to leave you again. I promise.

Never.

Come here.

- See you later. - See you.

Off you go.

- See you, Mom. - Have a nice day.

Bye.

DYSSEGÅRD SCHOOL

What's he doing here?

I don't think you should talk to him.

You'll make it worse. Please look after yourself.

I will.

But he won't go away until I've said goodbye to him.

I promise I'll end things with him, for the sake of our family.

Go ahead and unlock it.

Hi. I've been trying to reach you.

I stopped by yesterday. Did he tell you? There's so much you need to see.

- So much that doesn't make any sense… - Joachim, stop. Stop!

- We can't talk here. - Are you scared of him?

If he's hurt you in any way, I swear to God I'll crush--

No, no. Stop.

He needs to believe we won't see each other.

Okay?

Trust me.

I'm staying here.

If you can make it there, we can talk.

Right.

- We have to say goodbye now. - Okay.

You're right. Things don't add up, but I'm figuring it out, okay?

I love you.

I love you.

Right.

- See you. - I'll see you then. Bye.

Elisabeth, I need you to talk to me. I'm not angry with you.

Angry?

If you and Edmund are having an affair and he fired you…

I have no clue, but I just want to ask you something.

What are you talking about? Of course we're not having an affair.

Then why won't you talk to me?

Because you people forced me to sign a bloody NDA!

- Wait… I'm sorry. Stop. Who did? - You know damn well.

- Your husband. - Okay…

Look, no matter what, I promise that you can talk to me.

I've heard that before.

- You don't do anything! - What are you talking about?

If you and I have spoken, I don't remember it.

I don't remember!

You contacted me a little over two years ago.

I told you I'd discovered one of our ships was being used to commit crimes.

Serious stuff.

Human trafficking. Buying and selling women.

Using your shipping containers.

Okay.

How did you find out about it?

I received e-mails from a woman claiming to have evidence.

Photos from inside the containers. Shipping routes.

Schedules.

She told me this was systematic

and required the approval of higher-ups in the company.

She said she was working with the women and wanted to meet.

She gave me an address.

But before we could meet up, you contacted me.

You said you would take it from there.

Did I meet with her?

I don't know. I never heard from you again.

And frankly, I kind of suspected that…

That perhaps you were behind it all. How would I know?

I tried contacting Edmund several times. I was completely shut down.

Our contract was cancelled. I was fired and forced to sign an NDA.

One of Edmund's employees threatened me with all sorts.

I'm a single mother of two children. I couldn't afford the risk.

Then it's still happening.

Yes. I assume it is.

- Do you have the address of your contact? - Yes.

She told me to go here.

- I think this is where she worked. - Okay.

Promise me you'll be very careful if you start unraveling all of this.

I will.

What was the name of your contact?

Louise.

Louise Andersen.

- Hello. - Hi.

How can I help you?

I'm looking for Louise.

She's available in a minute. Go ahead.

- Louise? - Close. My name is Lulu.

Do you want something to drink? Champagne?

I'm looking for someone called Louise. She worked here two years ago.

Order the champagne.

Right. A bottle of champagne, please.

You're looking for Louise?

Just drink it.

Pretend you're a regular customer.

So, what do you want with her?

Did you know her?

Yes.

- We were colleagues. - Do you know where she is?

No, I haven't seen her in two to three years.

What happened to her?

One night after work she just said she wasn't coming back.

Why? Did she give an explanation?

She was scared.

But I don't know why.

Did she ever tell you that she knew about women having been trafficked here?

We all bloody do. Like half the girls in here at least.

Here's some advice.

Be very careful asking questions like that.

One last thing.

Do you know where she went?

She said she was leaving the country.

Something about Norway.

No!

Where am I?

You're awake.

No. Relax. Take it easy.

Take it slow.

Helene, do you remember how we discussed your medication?

Here you go.

Take two.

I'll need you to open your mouth.

Helene, I know every trick in the book.

Good.

I'm sorry about this.

I'm afraid it's necessary.

Try and relax, okay?

Where's Alexander?

He shouldn't see you like this.

What did you tell him?

I told it to him like it is.

That you're not well and need rest, and he understands that.

He knows you're sick.

- I want to go home now. - Yes.

- I want to be with Alexander. - Yes. I understand.

It'll all happen. We just need to sort some paperwork first.

APPOINTMENT OF GUARDIANSHIP

You're going for incompetency?

I want to help you.

You need the best care and treatment.

Helene…

You're not listening.

I'm trying to take care of you, okay?

I can't have you running away again.

I've found out what my father wanted to warn me about.

I also know who Louise is.

- You won't get away with this. - Oh, my love…

You're imagining things.

Things that aren't even real.

The pills will start working soon.

I've packed some things to last you a few days.

You need to relax.

I'll leave the papers here, and you can sign them when you're ready.

I love you.

I hope you'll be yourself again soon.

Hello!

Hello!

Let me out! I need to see my son!

We fled together.

Helene!

Helene!

He's found us.

There's a ship.

I think we can make it if we jump.

Are you stark raving mad?

Damn it!

Come here!

They're looking for me.

Could they have this address?

- No. - Okay.

He has Alexander.

- I have to get him out of there. - We'll figure it out.

I knew her.

- Louise Andersen. I met her. - Okay?

We were in contact,

and she had evidence that Edmund was using the company for trafficking.

Start from the beginning so I'm sure I understand.

She fled to Norway.

- Louise? - Right. And I followed her, and…

- We were on a bridge, and I-- - There was a bridge?

It this it?

I've been trying to figure out how you ended up on that ship.

If you didn't board it the regular way, I thought that you might have jumped.

Taking shipping routes and height into account,

this was the only place it could have happened.

Give me your bag and run.

I'll stay and talk to him.

- What? You can't! - You've done enough.

Give me your bag.

Run. Now!

Stop!

Stop!

Helene!

Helene…

Don't.

Helene…

Please don't.

Don't.

It was Edmund.

He killed Louise.

I saw it and then I jumped.

She gave me something.

I'll be damned.

- I hid it well. - A little too well.

Hi.

Helene?

I need your help.

I found one.

What are we expecting to find?

Evidence of some kind.

I see.

Oh my God.

What is this?

Trafficking.

SÖDERBERG SHIPPING

Those are our containers.

Edmund has been using my father's company for it.

- Then that Elisabeth was right. - Yes.

And then Edmund tried to get rid of the evidence.

What is it?

That ship…

We've worked with the company that owns that ship for a long time.

Even before Edmund joined the company.

How long?

For over 50 years.

Are these the pages torn from my book at the office?

Yes, I believe so.

You need to understand that JM Shipping…

Your father managed some of the partners himself.

He didn't want me involved.

CEO OF J. M. SHIPPING A/S

LIFELONG COOPERATION

Edmund is probably involved as well. A lot is pointing to that, but…

This started long before he came to the company. No doubt about it.

So my father started all of this?

Yes.

Then that's what he wanted. He wanted to…

confess at the very end and he wanted to warn me.

Edmund, he…

Hey… What's next?

- I have to protect Alexander. - We have to consider our next move.

I have to confront Edmund.

- He's a dangerous man. - He can't hurt me now. I have evidence.

We'll take it to the police, show them, and keep a cool head.

We can't wait for the police to investigate.

He's got lots of lawyers, and can talk his way out of everything.

And you're right.

He's dangerous, so I have to get Alexander to safety.

"…leave the road

and go into the woods alone when my mother has told me not to."

- Grandma? - Yes?

When is Mom coming home?

I'm sure she'll be home again soon.

Don't worry, sweetheart.

Sleep tight.

- Good night. - Good night.

We'll get her home.

I'm going to bed.

If I'm not back in ten minutes, come find me.

Be careful.

It's wonderful to have you home again. Would you like a glass of wine?

I've found out what you and my father were doing.

I have the necessary evidence.

It's hidden in a safe place.

I want Alexander.

Let me take him, and I won't show it to anyone.

But you have to let me go and not follow us.

You don't understand what this is about at all.

I can't let you go.

I'll never allow you to disappear from me again.

Allow me to…

You let me disappear.

And made sure I was found again.

Okay.

Perhaps it's better if I explain all of this to you.

But then I think you'll want to stay with me.

You're right.

You discovered the company's involvement in trafficking two years ago.

I tried to stop you. I really did, but I didn't manage in time.

You got away.

At first, I thought you died in Norway.

But then I discovered you had started a whole new life.

I had a hard time believing the story about amnesia and…

But it turned out to be true.

Or was it?

Did you keep tabs on me?

I did.

Of course I did.

It became almost like an obsession.

At the same time it pained me

to see you

with another man.

It wasn't easy for me to see you living a life without me.

But I tolerated it.

Until I couldn't anymore.

I couldn't live with your engagement to another man.

So I had to bring you home again.

Helene…

You are mine.

We belong together.

It was risky bringing you home.

I had to gamble that you wouldn't regain all your memories

which was of course naïve.

You let our son live without his mother for two years.

But I did let you live, didn't I?

What about Louise?

You didn't let her live. You killed her.

- She got in the way of our love. - You're insane.

I love you.

I love you more than anything else in the world.

I'm going to get Alexander now.

And then you'll let us go.

- No. - Yes, you will.

- No. - Yes, because I have evidence!

It mainly implicates your father, and he's not here to defend himself.

So the company will be held to account.

And the company, my love… That's you and me.

- Hi, Ingrid. - Hi.

Quick question.

That book you showed us with old employees?

- Yes? - There's a photo from 1976.

There's a blonde woman. I'm sure I've seen her somewhere.

If you go to the police, I'll drag you down with me.

So how about we just sort this out as a family?

- Stay away! - Keep it down. Alexander's sleeping.

That woman on the left. That's Caroline, Edmund's mother.

Mother, will you take care of this?

Was she employed with the company?

Yes. She was my predecessor as Aksel Söderberg' s secretary.

…can't treat me like this!

- I'm talking to you! - Let go!

You can't treat me like this.

Stop this! Caroline!

It was you.

You were here, when I was little.

Upstairs so she doesn't wake Alexander.

- Put her on the bed. - Easy now.

Let me go!

Take it easy.

Take it easy.

Why were you here? You were arguing, but you didn't know him.

Helene, your father was a terrible person.

- What are you talking about? - For 8 years, I did everything for him.

I loved him. Worshiped him.

He said he loved me too.

He said we would get married.

But as soon as he met your mother,

he ended our relationship and cast me aside.

I wasn't good enough.

Dispatch Center.

Hi. I think I need some help here.

- Yes. How can I help? - Send the police to Lindenvej 12.

Yes, of course. Can you tell me what this is about?

But he underestimated mother.

He underestimated how she knew his secrets.

I had to make sure Edmund had a future at Söderberg.

We deserved it.

- So I forced Aksel to hire Edmund. - You must believe me. Our love…

It was always real.

You're insane!

- I told you she'd react like this. - She just needs more time.

You saw what happened the last time you let her live.

She must die, just like her father.

Otherwise, everything we've fought for is ruined.

Dad?

You killed my father so he couldn't tell me the truth?

It's very convenient to suddenly grow a conscience on your deathbed, isn't it?

Finish it this time.

I'll sort her out.

No, Edmund!

You insisted on getting her home,

and I let you, but it didn't work, so this ends here!

Mother!

It's not your call.

You're pathetic.

This is pathetic. She doesn't want you! Don't you see?

I'll do it myself.

Mother, stop!

Stop! Not like this!

She's still Alexander's mother! Stop!

No. Mother.

No.

Mother.

Mother!

No, no.

POLICE

- Do you see that white house over there? - Yes.

With the swimming dock? That's where we're going.

- Can we go swimming? - Sure, if you'd like to.

Okay, throw it to me. Throw it.

Okay, again! Like that.

Throw it to me.

If you throw it to me, then I'll swim over here,

swim under, and then back to you.

- Are you ready? Here it comes. - Yes!

No, too far!

Mom, this place is amazing.

You've always loved swimming.

- Are you starting to remember things? - A few things.
