All language subtitles for 15. Monday November 17

We're putting out a search
for a hit-and-run driver

in a white station wagon.

- Do you think it was premeditated?
- Bremer was seen talking to Olav.

He had me confused with someone else.

He talked about the key to a flat.

Every month, 5,000 kroner extra
were transferred to his account.

I found out who approved
the money for Olav Christensen.

Bremer and the other leaders
are meeting.

I see no other recourse than to report
him to the Electoral Commission.

Obviously Bremer fiddled with...

Troels Hartmann, what's going on?

We have to find the driver.
The arrangement is new to everyone.

Is it OK if I go and stay at Dad's
for a couple of days?

This is Bengt Roslin.
Leave your name and number.

I don't know when
your plane lands tomorrow

but I'd like to see you.

First the Norwegian, then junior.
I hope your mother stays put.

It's important to find the killer
but not more than you and Theis.

Nothing is more important.

- When is Dad coming?
- A little later.

The others told me
that you are Birk Larsen.

- Where am I?
- The Holy Cross hostel.

She went outside to talk to someone.

All I know is that it was a white car.

As far as I know, I've been arrested
for driving a black car

so what the hell am I doing here?

I know what you did
that night in the cottage.

Rolled up towels under the door,
mattresses in front of the windows

newspapers in all the cracks
and an open gas oven.

The Electoral Commission has met.

The official decision
will be made tonight.

What did Troels do that weekend?

I have to get out of here by tonight.
I thought it was best to end it all.

Take him back to his cell.

A car left the parking structure
minutes before he was run over.

- Phillip Dessau.
- You want my car?

- What's going on?
- They're questioning me.

Has Lund put out a search
for Phillip Dessau's car?

His wife and children
are at Soro police station.

- The car doesn't have a scratch.
- Jesus Christ!

I only saw Dessau on the plane over
and then back again.

Do you still have the itinerary?

I'll go and check.

THE KILLING

Meyer here.

I'm on my way to Holck's house.
Has Lund called?

- No.
- It's been Holck all along.

He had an affair
with Nanna Birk Larsen.

He got the key to the flat.

The accounts show that Hartmann
authorised the money.

Holck doctored them.

His station wagon hasn't been seen
since the civil servant was run over.

- That doesn't prove anything.
- I gave Lund the address.

- Send the patrol cars out now.
- What about Hartmann?

Fuck Hartmann!

Listen to me.
We need to get to Lund now!

I'll send a car out.
Keep me posted.

SUNDAY 16 NOVEMBER
8:07PM

Jens Holck?

Holck?

Hello!

- Hello!
- Step away from the door.

- What do you want?
- To talk to my lawyer.

Well, you're not allowed.

Have a seat.

- Have you heard from my lawyer?
- I want to ask you about Jens Holck.

I've already told you
everything I know.

There's an important vote at...

- What time is it?
- Can Holck have doctored the books?

What books?

The accounts that show that
you authorised the money for Olav.

- You think Jens did it.
- Answer the question.

- Has he been acting strange?
- Strange? Hell if I know.

He's doesn't exactly
have winning manners.

She wasn't at the address I gave her.
The house was for sale.

- What about the town hall?
- No, I called.

Put out a search.

It's not the first time
we can't find her.

There's something very wrong.
If we don't move now, we're in trouble.

- Where is Holck currently living?
- What's going on?

If he's not at his address,
where could he be?

He was divorced recently.

He's staying with relatives.

- What relatives?
- I don't know. What's going on?

Hartmann says
he's staying with relatives.

- What relatives?
- I don't know. Find out.

If you think Holck did it,
why am I here?

- Take him back to his cell.
- The meeting is starting soon.

You know I didn't do it.
You know that for a fact.

Put out a search for Lund and her car.

I have my own company
that I started from scratch.

It took me five years.
I also have 30 employees

and a branch in Denmark
and production in Vietnam.

A turn in the election...

What do you do?

A nasty case.

The city council will vote
tonight on excluding Hartmann.

Hartmann has been charged
although sources say that...

Do you travel a lot?

Someone said, "To travel is to live".

But they weren't talking
about business trips.

Let's go to your room.

Put it on my tab.

This is where I stay
when I'm in town. Come in.

Sorry.

I didn't know I'd be having guests.

Would you like a drink?
What would you like?

As a student I worked as a bartender
at the Grand Hotel in Oslo.

Gin and tonic.
No ice, no lemon.

I'm sorry. I thought we...

Is there something wrong?

Would you like another drink?

Take my clothes off.

Are you sure?
You seem a bit...

- You're sure you don't want to stay?
- Thanks for your help. I have to go.

You're welcome.

A long time ago
I lost everything I held dear.

How and why doesn't matter,
but that's what happened.

Life wasn't worth living.
And guilt made me do awful things.

I cursed my life.

But today I can see there was a plan
behind it. Here, you can keep it.

What seemed like the end
turned out to be a beginning.

God gives us hardship for a reason

although we don't understand
when we're up to our necks in shit.

Before I met my wife
and started a family

I did many things
that were wrong in life.

I hurt people
because I thought they deserved it.

It's a long time ago.

I just think that guy there
hasn't forgotten

so he only gave me a short break.

I'm sure there's something

that can give you
and your family hope.

There is

But I don't think it's very Christian.

Untie me.

We'll work it out.

I know you didn't mean
for this to happen.

We'll work it out.

All right?

They can trace me.

Some of the people from the town hall
went out that night.

We'd all had too much to drink.

The civil servant said I could
spend the night in the party's flat.

Hartmann must have just left.

The computer was on when I got there.

So I sent an email.

Just for fun.
That's how I met her.

The little whore.

I told the station where I was going.

They're on their way.

Do you have children?

These are mine.

My wife.

My ex-wife.

She says I won't be able
to see them very often.

I could never kill somebody.

But that civil servant
kept pressuring me.

It had cost me too much.

I know.

That's why you have to untie me
so we can talk properly about it.

- I'd like to.
- Yes.

But I can't.

I'm sure you understand.

Wait.

Listen to me.
The police are on their way.

They can trace my other mobile.
I have two.

You're lying.

You can check.
It's in my car.

It's either in the glove compartment
or my handbag.

OK.

Hold it, Holck!

Drop the gun!

Drop the gun, for Christ's sake!

Get down!

Drop the gun!

Drop the fucking gun!

Come on! On the ground!

Tell my wife...

How did you know where to go?

The same way Lund did.
I called his ex-wife.

There'll be an investigation.
You'll be informed.

The girl's parents have to be told.

Well done, Meyer.

- Get some sleep. OK?
- Yeah.

Make sure all your things are there.

Don't you owe me an explanation?

I can't comment right now.

You're free to go.

You have a minor concussion.
Go home and relax.

I'm fine.

We're not done yet.

If the stitches come undone,
you have to get new ones.

They said it was Jens Holck.
He had taken Sarah Lund prisoner.

- Who told you that?
- Your lawyer.

The charges were dropped.
You're cleared.

- Where's Rie?
- You are excluded from the election.

- Where is she?
- Bremer called a press conference.

He wants the vote made public.

Much to our regret, we have
to say goodbye to Troels Hartmann.

Never before has the city council
had to take such drastic steps.

But it was obvious
that something had to be done.

And the vote was unanimous.

Now that the air has been cleared...

HARTMANN RELEASED.
ON HIS WAY TO TOWN HALL

...we can get on
with politics and the election.

The other group leaders...

The other group leaders
and I have agreed

to lead the town out of the crisis

that the Hartmann case brought on.

And furthermore we'll fight for...

- What the hell is going on?
- Hartmann, when were you released?

- Are you still charged?
- No comment.

I can't comment on the case.

I know the police
will soon make a statement.

All I can say is that the case
is over as far as I'm concerned.

I'll be cleared.

You're not in the city council.

I'm sure the city council
will inform me of any decisions.

- So you're not out of the election?
- We have a lot to do right now.

I'm sorry.
We're very busy.

- Where is Rie?
- I don't know.

Where is she, Morten?

I had to tell her the whole story.

Where you were that night
and what happened.

There was no way round it.

She has all kinds of wild ideas.

I'm sure she'll understand.

Right now we have to get a handle
on the practical side.

Shall I pick up some food?
Then we'll make a schedule of...

I'd like to be alone for a while.

Where is she?

I found a number on her mobile.

Is this it?

I didn't do anything. She wanted to.
And suddenly she went berserk.

I didn't know she was married.

Piss off.

Get dressed.

Where are your shoes?

I tried to call you.
The police called.

They found the killer.

Do you understand what I'm saying?
They caught him, and he's dead.

He's dead.

Charlotte took the boys
to your parents'.

Do you know where Theis is?

Say something, for fuck's sake!

One day we all went to the beach

and I wanted to teach
Nanna how to swim.

We stood out in the sea, she and I.

I told her that first
she had to learn to float.

She was scared. But I told
her I would hold on to her.

No matter what,
I would always hold her.

The scene took place
at an abandoned factory.

Holck was shot in self-defence
after having threatened an officer.

Jens Holck was killed
this evening by one of our officers.

Evidence points

to Holck being the perpetrator
we've looked for.

- You had charged Hartmann.
- We had our eye on the town hall.

Unfortunately, Holck couldn't
be apprehended in any other way.

Do you feel guilty?

No.

Are you frightened?

You will have a reaction.

That's not the problem.

What is it?

I know what I said
about the perpetrator's profile.

That there could be more victims.

But if Holck is the perpetrator,
it's not very likely.

Then I was wrong.

I never said
I was as clever as you are.

Be glad that it's over now.

Come to bed.

DAY 15

The decision to exclude Troels
has been revoked this morning.

We have to explain to the voters
that Troels is innocent.

We know that, and so do the police

but the voters have to understand.

Many of our financial supporters
have backed out.

And without money there's no campaign.

So it's crucial
to get them back into the fold.

Our plans for a broad alliance

have been blown to smithereens,
but that is still our ultimate goal.

So it's important
to get back on track.

Is this at all possible with only
a few days till the election?

To be quite honest, we don't know.

It's clear that this case
will haunt us for a long time.

And the election

we had dreamed about
seems very far away.

So the situation
is definitely different.

Although time is against us,
I think we should give it our all

and see if we can make the best of it.

Finally I'd like to take the time
to thank you all for your support.

Without it I could never have
gotten through that difficult time.

So thank you.

- Get cracking.
- I'll see you out there.

Have you talked to Rie?
There are so many things...

I know. I've left
about a thousand messages.

Sorry to interrupt.
I just came by...

...to say welcome back.

Thanks.

Imagine him being out on a limb.
I don't understand.

We have just been in Latvia together.

He was a bit down in the mouth

but I thought it was
because of the divorce.

I had no idea
he had so much on his conscience.

Troels...

...I'm very sorry
that I was mistaken.

Believe me, I thought I was doing
the right thing in the situation.

And I'm sorry if I accused you
of things in the heat of the moment.

Don't give it a thought.
Now it's important to look forward.

This has changed the election.

- Have you spoken to the others?
- Yes.

We all agree that we have
to turn the public feeling around.

The voters think
that chaos reigns here.

Our most crucial task
is to win the voters' confidence.

That's the legacy Jens Holck gave us.

But I don't know
what your position is.

- What's the plan?
- Tonight we hold a press conference.

I'll say something about
all the parties working together

to clean up the mess after Holck.

We have buried the hatchet

and hope to win back the respect
and confidence of the voters.

So it's a truce
that will cancel the election.

Do you have a better suggestion?

I would have preferred
to see the campaign through

but as things are...

I actually think
it's best to follow my advice.

Remember that
we do have a responsibility.

Can I count on you tonight?

- Yes, of course.
- Good.

I'll let you know about the time.

Items were charged
to Holck's bank account.

They were gifts for Nanna.

Among other things, the boots

and most likely the necklace
with the black heart

that she had in her hand
when we found her.

He transferred money
to the civil servant's account

in appreciation for access
to Hartmann's flat.

We've also matched his prints
to ones found in the flat.

- What about these photos?
- They were found at Holck's place.

It's a picture of him
and Nanna Birk Larsen.

Taken during their affair.

- What does his ex-wife say?
- She confirmed his infidelity.

She doesn't know who he was with

but she says
that he was obsessed with her.

What do we know about
his movements on the 31 st?

He was at the poster party,
and Nanna went to the town hall later.

Probably to pick up the key,
so she could let herself in the flat.

Was he seen that weekend?

No. His ex was away with the kids.
No one has seen or talked to him.

And the car we found at Holck's?

Forensics confirms it was the car
that hit the civil servant.

What do you think?

I think it's a good case.

- What happens now?
- Not much.

I think Bengt and Mark and I
will gather the pieces and move on.

- What about you?
- Me?

There'll probably be an investigation
of the shooting.

It's a matter of form.

Why the hell didn't that idiot
just drop the gun?

I told him to.

- What the hell could I do?
- You didn't have any choice.

And I'm glad you did it.

So now what?
The case is closed, right?

- What do you mean?
- I don't know you very well.

But I can tell
you're still thinking...

I'm just tired.

I talked to the legal department.
They say there's ample evidence.

The case is closed.

Will you talk to the girl's parents?

Of course. No problem.

- What about Sweden? Any news?
- No. I'll call the station.

I've ordered a glass
of the strong stuff to celebrate.

I'm coming.

I don't give a shit
about your deadline.

Our customers can't get through
because we're hounded by reporters.

- Have you heard from Theis?
- He's on his way from the house.

Vagn, we don't have
to tell Theis about yesterday.

- We could keep it between us.
- You want me to lie?

- Hi.
- Hi.

Did you hear that they found him?
The police will be here in an hour.

- Where is she?
- Where the hell do you think?

She's where you should be.
What the hell's wrong with you?

You didn't come to the cemetery.
We ran around looking for you.

We were there with Pernille
and the boys.

What the fuck? You idiot!

You've completely lost it!

Everything's going to hell
in a hand basket.

And I won't have it!

What's happened?

I want you to tell me
what has happened.

I was over at the house.

It doesn't look too bad.

We're further...

...than we thought.

They say he's dead.

- Theis, I...
- It doesn't matter.

It doesn't matter.

I've missed you.

If you agree to the meeting,
you've given up.

We don't have any choice.
People don't want to hear about CO2.

So now it's fine
that Bremer stays in office.

No, it isn't.
But perhaps I'm not the right man.

You found me in the cottage.
Did I look like a top candidate then?

I don't know. But I know
you're not afraid of anything.

- Where were you?
- At a friend's house.

I'm sorry that
I didn't tell you about it.

Yes. Why didn't you?

Three days later
you wanted to move in with me.

And I meant it. It was
my first thought when I woke up.

- Yes, but why didn't you tell me?
- Because...

I still don't know why I did it.

It was stupid.

You could tell Morten, but not me?

Sometimes I'm in doubt
about what the hell you want.

I'm the one pressing
for a flat and children.

So now it's my fault?

- No, I didn't say that.
- Yes, you did.

I don't care anyway.

Rie, I'd like to try
to explain it to you.

Troels, it's over.

But we're still in the campaign.
I have a big stake in that.

- Did you agree to a truce?
- Yes, but fuck that.

Say no to the truce.
Don't go to the press conference.

I'll get an appointment
with someone who has information.

Jorgen Hauge?

My name is Sarah Lund. CID.

I'd like to talk to you
about your daughter Mette.

- Why?
- It won't take long.

It's 15 years ago.

She disappeared on 7th November.
It was a Wednesday.

On the way home from handball.

We called the police.
They searched for her.

Two, three weeks later,
only two officers were on the case.

They never found her.

So we buried a casket without a body.

Might she have committed suicide?

She had been depressed.

Did she leave a note?

No.

Did she have a boyfriend?

- Not that we knew of.
- Was she seeing someone?

I don't recall.
It's a long time ago.

Was there something
that puzzled you back then?

Yes.

The whole thing.

Yes, well...
Thank you very much.

Sorry to trouble you.

Why are you here twice
in one week after 15 years?

What do you mean by twice in one week?

An officer called
and asked the same questions.

What was his name?

He was difficult to understand.

I wrote his name down.

It's probably in the living room.

Where did she get that necklace?

She bought it or was given it.

- Who gave it to her?
- I don't know. Why?

Do you know where it is now?

I don't think we ever found it.
Why do you ask?

Do you mind if I take it with me?

They met through an Internet portal

and had an affair for quite some time.

He used Hartmann's identity,
and that confused us at first.

But then we figured out
the connection.

Why did he do it?

Most likely he was in love with her.

She was the one who broke it off.

He convinced her to meet him
one last time in the party's flat.

How did he die?

He...

He threatened the life of a colleague.

So we had no alternative
than to shoot him.

- Did he say anything?
- No, he didn't.

- And you're sure it's him?
- Yes.

We'd like...

...to have Nanna's things back
as soon as possible.

Of course.

By the way, Sarah Lund

isn't on the case anymore.

Call me if there's something you need.

Thank you.

Right. Goodbye.

Where is he?
And who is our secret guest?

Gert Stokke. He's the head
of Holck's department.

Holck's department?

Why would I want to talk
to someone from Holck's department?

- Thank you for coming.
- I hope this is in confidence.

And you do realise the risk
I'm taking?

Yes, of course.

I've worked here since October 1984.

But I've never...

Three years ago, I was appointed
head of Holck's department.

And therefore I've had access
to all accounts and budgets.

It's a very important job
that is under appreciated.

Tell us about Holck.

During the summer I noticed
that he had changed.

He had always been very conscientious

but then he let things slide.

At one point, he took a day off
because his child was sick.

Later, his wife called
and asked about him.

- Then one has one's own ideas...
- About him having an affair.

- It was no business of mine.
- I haven't heard anything new.

If that's all,
I have a press conference soon.

You knew that Holck had an affair
and that he had used our flat.

I wasn't sure about it.

I had heard about it a few times.

Once I wanted to send him
some papers and he said

that I should send them
by taxi to Store Kongensgade.

He could've had a meeting with you.

You knew he used our flat?

Do you know
what you could have spared me?

- Why the hell didn't you say so?
- I told Bremer.

I requested a meeting
with the lord mayor.

I said he would take care of it.

He would talk to Holck about it.

He didn't think I should say anything.

And when did this take place?

Several months ago.

I thought the lord mayor
had things under control.

Bremer wants everyone to meet.
What should I tell him?

- How is she?
- She needs rest.

As soon as we get away from here,
things will be fine.

I need to have the place to myself.
We have to move on.

- Hi, darling.
- Hi.

I need to talk to Bengt.

Now? I just got your mother
to help me.

Fine.

You talked to the father
of one of the missing women.

Sarah...

Your boss, Brix, called me
three or four days ago.

He had heard about my theory
about the perpetrator.

I told him what I thought,
but he brushed it aside

in a very arrogant way.
That irritated me.

I wanted to prove I was right,
and so I called the father.

So what did you find out?

What did you find out?

Last night you told me you were wrong.
No connection to old cases.

But you went there. Didn't you?

And you saw this.

It might be a fluke.
There are thousands of those necklaces.

Sarah...

I love you

- I don't think you should deal with...
- What did you do afterwards?

I took some notes
and gave them to Brix.

To Brix.

We weren't on speaking terms.
I was angry with you.

Sarah, please...

- What should we do now?
- We could go for a meal.

No, I'd rather just go home.

- Can't we go out to eat?
- Dad wants to go home.

Do we have any food at home?

Big steaks and soft ice
and candy and coke?

No, I don't think we do.

- Then we'd better go out to eat.
- Yes!

Let's go.

I have to talk to someone first.
I'll be right back.

I just need to have a word.

What's up?

I'm not sure.

- You're bleeding.
- Let's go back to the canal.

I think there's more out there.
