Mom...

I want my mom.

THOSE WHO KILL

FIVE YEARS LATER

Hi, Alice.

I'm sorry!
Have you been waiting long?

No.

-Hi.
-Hi.

Hi.

-You haven't changed a bit.
-Not true, but thank you.

-I'm so happy you came.
-I'm glad you called.

Do you recognize anything?

A little.

No problems
with taking the time off?

No. They gave me
a couple of days off.

Have you got a husband?
Any children?

-I have a boyfriend. No children.
-Okay.

I don't mean to pry.

Well, actually I do.

Alice.

I just want to say
that I'm really sorry

I didn't get in touch
after Markus died.

I was living in the UK at the time...

I know.
There's no need to apologize.

No, I should apologize
for calling out of the blue...

but I really need your help.

Come.

This hasn't changed.

I'll show you to your room upstairs.

Johannes?

Did you finish your math homework?

-Want me to look at it?
-Nah.

Are you sure? Okay.

Lunch is a bit boring today. Sorry.

Wasn't Mom supposed
to come home yesterday?

She got held up.

There's a bit of chaos at work.

Can't someone else deal with it?

No one is as clever as your mom.

-You can FaceTime her, you know.
-Yeah, I tried.

This is Masja. Leave a message.

Hi, honey. It's me again.

Johannes is wondering
when you'll be home.

And... so am I, I guess.

So, call me when you get this.
Okay, take care.

As I said on the phone,

I hope you find something
the police overlooked.

I've collected some material for you.

I guess you could've googled
most of it.

Well, the police
haven't been very open.

-Especially with the media.
-Nor with the afflicted.

I hardly hear from them anymore.

Who's in charge of the investigation?

Karina Hørup.

She wasn't on the case
from the start,

but was put in charge
three months ago.

To no avail.

Why did you wait to call me?

I'm sick.

I have a brain tumor
that's inoperable.

They're saying three to four months.

Six months, if I'm lucky.

Louise. Don't pity me.

But I need to know who killed Markus.

POLICE

-Louise Bergstein?
-Yes.

-Karina Hørup.
-Hi.

-You know Alice Ejbye?
-She was friends with my parents.

What can I do for you?

Alice asked me
to look into the case.

Well, we can't stop her
from doing a private investigation.

I'm not here as a PI.
I'm here to offer my help.

We've consulted with experts
but with no result.

Is the investigation still going on?

Yes. We won't quit.
I hope Alice knows.

May I ask you some questions
about the victims?

Sure. Come with me.

-Markus Ejbye was the first victim?
-We assume as much.

The headlines said
he was assaulted at night?

Yes, around 1 a.m.
on his way home from work.

And Esben Quist, the second victim,
was that at night too?

Yes. He was on his way home
from a night out.

-Same cause of death?
-I can't disclose that.

But you assumed
the perpetrator was the same?

Yes, absolutely.

And Kasper Larsen, the third victim.

He was killed in March.
Same time of the day?

We don't know.

He left his workplace
in the afternoon

and was reported missing
next morning.

So, three young men aged 18-25.

-Did they know each other?
-No.

May I hear the conclusions
of the offender profile you had done?

Of course. We assume he's low-skilled
and that he's offended before.

He probably lives alone
or with an older family member...

and is under the influence
when he attacks.

It happens impulsively.

So, a disorganized type.

And his victim selection?

Apart from targeting young men,
it's random.

He didn't know the victims
prior to the offence.

Has any suspects fitted the profile?

I cannot divulge that.

Can I see the crime scene photos?

You're not on the case,
and you know the family, so no.

Please, call me
if you have more questions.

And say hi to Alice.

I knew she'd refuse to help you.

They already had a profile
of the offender.

Did it sound valid?

It's hard to say
with so little information.

-Where did Markus work?
-At a hotel in the city.

He was a dishwasher
in the restaurant.

He'd just got his high-school diploma

and took a gap year before college.

-Here you go.
-Thanks.

Before he was killed...

had he rejected someone
who was sexually attracted to him?

Did he ever mention feeling
followed or watched?

No, but the police did ask me

if it could be someone
who knew Markus.

I couldn't think of anyone.

And then
the other two murders happened.

And then they scrapped that theory.

The police think
the victims are random.

But you disagree?

No, I'm the one
who's pissed off the wrong people

for 25 years as a judge.

-Have you ever had threats?
-Yes.

But always just
about scratching my car and such.

Oh, and there was a break-in,
but he apparently lost his nerve

because nothing
was missing or vandalized.

When was that?

Some time...

before Markus died.

And you're sure nothing was taken?

Yes. No jewelry or anything.

If nothing was taken,
how do you know there was a break-in?

When I came home,
the backdoor was open.

And I could sense
someone had been here.

Things had been moved about a bit,
but that was all.

May I see Markus's room?

I've hardly been in here
since it happened.

None of Markus's things
were missing?

No, I don't think so.

Is that Markus?

Yes. From the graduation celebration.

-Markus was the valedictorian?
-Yes.

He loved that hat.

I don't understand.

What's wrong?

His graduation hat is gone.

Maybe the police took it.

No, they only took his computer.

I know it was up there.

Peter.

Your wife is here.

Thanks.

I don't think it's sustainable
that I keep commuting to Singapore.

-I'm more there than home.
-Yeah, I know.

So, what are your thoughts?
Getting your job back here in Odense?

No. They offered me a promotion.

As the head of the new branch.

But that requires
that I move there for some time.

Okay... for how long?

Two years to begin with.

Okay, well then...

Johannes and I will manage
on our own for a while...

and join you after summer vacation.

We need to rent out the house.

Right...

I don't think you should come.

You don't?

Peter...

Isn't it for the best considering
how we've been these past few years?

What is this?

Is it Nigel...?

No. He's my boss.
We've been through this.

I know.

You'll keep the house, of course.

What?

Masja, the house was your dream,
it wasn't mine.

At the time I thought
it was right for us.

Masja...

I moved here, I took this job

so that you could have
your dream house.

I've been holding everything together
while you've been chasing a career.

I think we should tell
Johannes together.

Tonight.

Peter...

-Louise?
-Hi.

-Hi.
-Do you have a minute?

Come in.

This is my husband, Bo.

Jonathan and Albert
and the screen junkie is Cecilie.

What's up?

Alice Ejbye had a break-in
some time before the murder

and now she says
Markus's graduation hat was stolen.

Okay. And it hasn't just gone
missing?

No. Alice is positive.

Were there break-ins
at the other victims' houses?

Not as far as I know.

Do you think the killer broke in?

Maybe.

Come to the precinct tomorrow.
I'll talk to the other families.

Will you talk to them in person?

If so, may I join you?

I can find the families myself,

I just thought
it was better to go through you.

Tomorrow at 10 a.m. at the precinct.

Thank you.

Coach says that I'll start in

as the right fullback
in our next game.

Awesome, good job.

Hey, do you know
that I played right fullback, too?

Yeah. You've told me
a million times.

Oh, have I?

Well, I was brilliant, so...

Johannes, I have to go
to Copenhagen tonight.

I'm off to London crazy-early.

I have a few meetings there
and then...

I go back to Singapore.

-You haven't even been home one day.
-I know.

And I'm really sorry.

But...

it's because I have a new job
out there now.

As an executive.

And that means I have to move
to Singapore for a while.

For how long?

A year, maybe two.

So will we move, too?

No, you and Dad will stay here.

You have your school
and your friends

and Dad has his work.

I'll come home on visits
as often as I can.

On school breaks,
you can come visit me.

And you know what.

There's a pool where I live...

-Are you getting a divorce?
-No.

Mom's just gonna live there
for a while,

and then she'll come back home.

At some point he needs to know.

Yes...

I think we should wait for a day
when you're not heading out the door.

Yes.

And it'll give you a chance
to change your mind.

Yes.

But I won't.

It's okay so far, so we'll see.

It's been over 20 years, so...

David, can we talk tomorrow?

Yes. Sleep well. Bye.

-I can do that.
-Nope! 'Cause I will.

This reminds me so much
of when you were little.

I remember that painting
from when I was little.

I had this ritual to count
all the ships before falling asleep.

I have many good memories
from those days.

-You and Mom drinking red wine.
-Oh, yes.

Mom felt safe here.

I'm sorry that I didn't come
to your mom's funeral.

But your dad and I...

The summer you spent here...

it wasn't the first time
she left your dad.

But it was the first time
she brought you.

And she promised me
that this time she meant it.

But after two months
she went back to him as always.

I tried to hold onto
our friendship for years...

but it got increasingly difficult.

I had a hard time accepting
that she would live with an abuser.

But I should have held onto you.

One way or another.

Did somebody break in
when Esben was home?

Yes.

That's right.
Between Christmas and New Year's.

-What was stolen?
-One of those.

Esben won them in Esports.

Why didn't you tell us?

My husband didn't think
it was a break-in.

But you still think someone was here?

Yes. At night,
while we were asleep.

Thank you.

Ilona, did somebody break in,
before Kasper was killed?

Yes. But I'm not sure.

I think it was about two weeks before
while we were at work.

The kitchen window was open
when I got home.

I never open that window.

And you never reported it?

All three victims had had break-ins
before they were killed.

So...

You were right.

The perpetrator selected
his victims ahead of time.

Does that mean our profile is wrong?

Maybe.

-Can you make a new one?
-Sure.

Do you need photos? Autopsy reports?

Whatever you've got.

This is Louise.

Søren and Torben have been
on the case from the beginning.

-Søren Dedenroth.
-Louise Bergstein.

-Torben Vissinge.
-Louise.

Nice catch with the break-ins.
It sucks for us that we missed it.

Our theory was that the victims
didn't know the perpetrator.

-Do you take milk?
-No, thank you.

We've gathered some stuff for you.
Autopsy reports and photos.

-We can go over it together.
-Yes.

The first victim was Markus Ejbye.

Should we skip him?
I understand you know his mother.

It's fine. I never met Markus.

Okay.

-He died by strangulation?
-Yes, with a rope.

That goes for all three victims.
And stab wounds across the body.

Inflicted prior to death.

-Any traces of sexual assault?
-No, unfortunately not.

I mean...

because then we don't have
the perpetrator's DNA.

But we do assume
that the motive is somehow sexual.

Markus Ejbye frequented
a gay bar in Odense.

Okay. What about Esben and Kasper?

Their families say
they were straight.

Any thoughts?

It could be sexual, but I have
to read the reports thoroughly.

And I need to see the crime scenes.

Please knock.

Sorry. But it's 10 p.m.
and you should go to sleep.

I'm going to the workshop to run
for an hour or so.

Okay?

You can sleep in my bed, if you want.

-Nah, I'd rather sleep here.
-Okay. Turn that thing off.

Good night.

This is where Markus Ejbye was found.

There had been no attempt
to hide him.

-Did you find his clothes?
-No.

There were very few physical leads.

Esben Quist was found right up there.

He was visible from the path,

so he was found
relatively quickly, too.

-And Kasper Larsen?
-About a kilometer from here.

He was better hidden
than the first two.

We don't get why the perpetrator
suddenly changes his MO.

Maybe he was worried

about the police's reaction
to another body.

Or maybe he didn't want anyone else
to know Kasper's whereabouts.

Why would that suddenly matter?

Kasper was the latest victim.

Maybe the perpetrator knew
he'd be the last.

I didn't think
serial killers could stop.

Some can.

Those who are
in control of themselves.

Okay.

I think you're dealing
with a...

perpetrator who harbors a
tremendous anger against his victims.

His basic motive is sexual,
as we've established

but sex with the victims
doesn't satisfy him.

Inflicting pain
and seeing their fear does.

He knows the area.
Probably lives in Funen.

But I don't think the crime scene
is significant.

He may have chosen the woods

because he can be alone
with the victims.

The crime scenes point toward
the disorganized type

because he didn't try
to hide the bodies.

That's in line with your theory.

But weapons and the victims' clothes
had been removed,

and we have no DNA so he took
great pains not to leave any leads.

I don't think he just randomly
left two of the victims in the open.

It might be his way of prolonging
the humiliation of the victims.

His victim selection
doesn't seem impulsive

and nor does his MO.

He's in control.

But five years ago,
before the first killing

I think he'd been exposed
to a stressful experience.

Something that made him feel
he was losing control.

And that made him escalate things
and go from fantasizing to killing.

I believe he could be
high-functioning socially

and have a family and a job.

But beneath his normality,

he fantasizes
about hurting young men.

And his surroundings probably
have no idea.

That's quite a different type
than what we've been looking for.

Maybe you've spoken to him already
because he knew one of the victims.

In these types of cases,

the perpetrator usually knows
the first victim.

Markus Ejbye.

Markus was the valedictorian.

Maybe that's how
the perp spotted him.

In the papers?

Yes, or at the celebration.

Check out all male relatives
of the graduates.

Everyone in the hall.

Right.

Thanks, Louise.

-Is that one correct?
-Yes.

Where were you last night?

I told you. I was on the treadmill.

You didn't come back upstairs
until 3 a.m. or so...

I went to get a glass of water.
That's probably what you heard.

How did it go?

Well. I hope I can help them.

-I miss you.
-I miss you, too.

-Talk to you later.
-Yes. Bye.

Louise?

Thank you for all your help.

We'll assign more men
to the case now.

I'm happy to hear that.

Our theory so far has been
that the perpetrator stopped

because he either moved away
or was put in prison

for something else.

Today you said
he might have decided to stop.

So he could still
be living around here?

Yes, absolutely.

Okay.

Louise, could you stay on?

I got financing for two months,

if you'd like to stay
as a consultant.

Okay.

-See you tomorrow.
-See you tomorrow.

Oh! Hi...

-I must've dozed off.
-Shouldn't you head off to bed?

No, I'm not going to sleep.
It's so lovely to have you here.

Come sit.

-How did it go?
-It went well.

They've decided to reallocate
more manpower to the case.

Really?

And Karina Hørup offered me to stay

as consultant on the case
for a few months.

But weren't you
going back to Copenhagen?

Yes. But now it would seem I'm not.

Sleep tight. Bye.
