- Who are you missing? Who is David?
- I'm sorry.

Tell me who it is!

- Bimse and I have no money.
- You have a pretty wife and a little boy.

- I'll make sure the Serbs keep away.
- How?

I thought we were avoiding bikers?

Our plan is to lay them off.

- Will you take care of it, Ulrik?
- So let me do it.

- I'll crush you.
- Don't do anything stupid.

I don't like your work.

Mia has written about all the big
business cases in the last 10 years.

I still think there's a wild story hiding there.

Energreen posted losses under Sander,
until Ulrik Skov came aboard.

Four years with losses.
They cooked the books.

- I don't know if I can do it.
- Of course you can.

It's us against them.

- BS Invest. Jan Johansen.
- Good evening.

I have a couple of questions
about Energreen.

- Yeah?
- It's from the Financial Gazette.

- Is it...?
- Yeah. Hermansen.

Mia Hermansen from the Financial Gazette.
I'm doing a background check.

- Hermansen?
- Yes. It's regarding Energreen...

- I have a question. Energreen.
- You called before.

Just listen. It's a simple question.

Hello?

Is someone there?

Okay. Fucking funny.
Games in the dark.

You should know I have pepper spray.
You really don't want this.

Are you Mia Hermansen?

- Yeah.
- You're writing an article about Energreen?

- Is it wise to answer, I wonder?
- Yes or no.

Yeah.

Read this.
There's a contact number, too.

Call and leave a message.
Then I'll call you back.

FRAUD, or
FOLLOW THE MONEY

Kids, you need to get up now!
We're late.

- What's going on?
- We're leaving now.

- Leaving?
- Yeah. We're going to Grandma's.

- Good morning. Are you ready?
- What's going on?

We're going to Grandma's today.

We agreed. A couple of days.

- Oh, yeah, that's right.
- Say goodbye to Dad.

- See you later, Dad.
- See you later.

See you later.

- We didn't discuss this.
- I tried to tell you a couple of times.

- You can't just ...
- You're not talking to me.

- What should I do?
- I don't know.

Don't spend time with that idiot.

I've tried to talk to you.
You don't say a word to me anymore.

- You're at work or in the office.
- Have I done something wrong?

- Is it strange that I'm upset?
- No. Not now, okay?

I'm going up to my mother's.
We can think about it.

I'll have the children call and say goodnight.

This is the second part of 'The Millionaire Club'.

You can ask questions of the top
Danish business people.

With us today is Alexander Sødergren,
CEO, Director of Energreen.

They've recently become a big player
in the production of energy.

It's sparked some rumors about an IPO.
Welcome, Sander Sødergren.

- Thanks. It's a pleasure.
- Let me ask a quick question:

- IPO. Yes or no?
- I'm in favor of openness.

The stock market is naturally a next step.

I think now is the right time.
So yes, we're on the way to the market.

A clear answer, and you heard it on
"The Millionaire Club".

We're putting the first listener through.
Welcome. Who do we have with us?

This is Mia Hermansen from the Financial Gazette.

Welcome, Mia. It's not often that
other financial journalists call in.

No. Alexander Sødergren, I have a question.

In connection with the IPO, a big
part of your expected revenue -

- is based on your research
and patent businesses. Correct?

- I can't disclose the patents we're working on.
- Weren't you all for openness?

- It's not the same thing. It would be stupid...
- Fine. Let me rephrase it.

Isn't it true that the place where
you do your research is in Poland?

We have a large staff of scientists
working for us in a lab in Poland. Correct.

Are you working on a project
on superconducting materials?

- I can't discuss that project.
- I've looked at the numbers.

I can see that the factory is assessed
at over half a billion kroner.

A half billion for a small business
in Poland. Isn't that a little much?

Mia, listen. I'd like to meet and talk to you
about an article for the Financial Gazette.

I'm not going to reveal deeply
confidential information over the radio.

- Good morning.
- Good morning.

What are you thinking?

- Mads ...
- I just need a moment.

We can't use that Sander and Ulrik
may have worked together once.

Just a moment.

We don't have any evidence that
they've inflated their accounts.

- Two seconds, Henriette. Okay?
- What's up?

Mads is developing a new overview.
It's the fourth time.

- Did you listen to the radio this morning?
- Yeah, I heard "The Voice".

- The Millionaire Club. Sødergren was on it.
- And?

He got caught with his pants down.
Do you remember Mia Hermansen?

- The one who slapped you.
- Mia from FG, yeah. She's onto something.

- She has something on Energreen.
- Let's talk to her.

No. I think I'm going to do it myself.

It's better if I do it myself.
See you in a bit.

- The Financial Gazette is persistent. We...
- The people from Core Invest are here.

- We need five minutes.
- They're waiting.

- Five minutes!
- Yeah.

I spoke to the journalist again.
She's thinking about writing -

- that our patent investments
are based on a thin assessment -

- and that the factory is overvalued.

We can certainly handle a single contrary article.

We've done it before.
We go out and talk about the Law of Jante.

She will raise doubts about
our concrete research.

- But that's so technical.
- We're going to the market in 14 days.

That could damage the IPO,
no matter if she's right or wrong.

- But if you, Sander, go out ...
- Just be quiet, Ulrik.

If 20% of our potential investors get
cold feet, we go to market at 80%.

Then we are no longer a success story.
They move onto the next, and so we ...

- Should we wait on the IPO? A few months?
- There are three London investors outside.

We can't. It will seem strange,
like we have something to hide.

Yeah, but we have nothing to hide.

We need that capital injection
that the IPO will give us -

- to complete the superconductor research.
Without it we won't reach the target.

Like Christensen says, even if the
journalist isn't right -

- she could end up looking right
just because she cried out.

- So we're going to try to ride out the storm.
- I'll try to stop the journalist's article.

Excellent.

This way.

Tobias?

- Claudia?
- Hi.

- It's good to see you.
- Likewise.

- You look nice.
- Thanks.

No, you're kidding!
I knew it would happen.

But I didn't think it would
happen so quickly.

- I think they're getting impatient.
- That's okay. I'm their boss.

You're their boss? Okay.

But you're right. We should go in.

- We should get together while I'm home.
- I'll see what I can do.

Boys, I want you to meet Erik.

Erik is going to be our accountant.

Let me start by saying congratulations.
You're the owners of your own auto shop.

- I don't understand.
- Me neither.

Tomorrow we'll exchange the money.
We'll have 15 million kroner in cash.

We're going to launder it.
Erik.

Jan says that you've agreed
to share them in three equal piles.

So you have 5 million each. But if
you want to buy more than an ice cream -

- without being taxed on it,
then you need to launder the money.

What we do is have you
start your own place.

We could call it Bimse's Dented Cars.

It doesn't start off so good, but after a
while you sell a bunch of used vans.

You begin to sell more cars.
The money begins to pour in.

In ten years, you might have made
a profit of 18 million.

So 9 are paid out to the three owners:
Jan, Nicky, Bimse.

Three each. Totally clean money.

- So we get the first money in ten years?
- No.

- You get some every month.
- Then we'll pay taxes on it.

Not much, but there won't be any questions.

- How much do we get?
- Hey, Nicky!

I have a right to know what's happening
with the money we found. Don't I?

- Good. So how much do we get?
- 200,000 in cash per year.

16,500 a month. In your pocket.

Great.

That's what we'll do, then.

- What do you think about the money?
- I really don't know, man.

First we had 2 million euros.
Now we have 16,000 kroner a month.

- It's not the same thing.
- No.

There's not a lot of pussy in that.

Hi.

Hi.

Am I under arrest, Mr. Officer?

- Am I disturbing you?
- You're interrupting my healthy lunch.

I heard you talked with Sødergren
on The Millionaire Club this morning.

No comments. Zero.
I'm in the middle of an article.

I have sources I need to protect.
You'll have to wait and read the paper.

I want to hear about the factory in Poland.
Is there something on it?

- Why?
- Because that ...

We've been hitting our heads against
the wall for several months now.

We were close to catching them
for insider trading and manipulation.

We know that they're inflating their
accounts for the IPO. We've seen evidence.

- I need something more.
- Yeah?

Some dinner. Maybe a drink after?

I've been thinking about you.

- You missed me, too.
- Yeah.

I've missed you, too.

Good.

Tell me about that insider trading case.

Two of their traders did front running.
Energreen reached them first.

They fired them and sent them to Brazil.

They got a lot of cash to keep quiet.

I'll tell you more about the factory
if you tell me more about that case.

- You'll get it.
- There's a copy of my material.

- How did you find out about this?
- I had a contact at the factory.

His name is in the papers.
I've researched further since then.

- Thanks.
- You're welcome.

See you tomorrow.

Mia's article is about this factory
in an industrial area of Poland.

There are over 50 scientists employed
and 200 lab technicians. Possibly others.

They're working on one thing.
Patents for superconducting materials.

Those are materials that can
transport energy without loss.

Whoever finds a superconductor
that doesn't need to be frozen -

- and works at ordinary temperatures
will be become big.

- How big?
- I don't know. Shell.

Big enough that they're panicking
that someone might steal it.

In the last few years, 0.5 billion have
been written off in expenses -

- without a single breakthrough.
They're saying it's around the corner.

No one knows what's going on in there.
It's hermetically sealed.

They're increasing the value more and
more. It's worth almost 0.25 billion now.

- They bought it for 20 million.
- Mia had a contact, you said?

Yeah, she has current figures
from a scientist down there. Dr. Belau.

She's hasn't been able to reach him
for the last 6 months.

He still works at the factory,
but he won't talk to her.

- Why is she writing the article now?
- What?

- If she hasn't talked to him.
- I don't know.

- She's talked to him, then.
- Why the hell would she lie about it?

What are you saying?

I think we should go down there.
We might find Dr. Belau.

- I doubt we have enough for a warrant.
- So we'll do it without one.

So we're going to go to Poland and
do police work without permission?

- It could be a little vacation.
- No. We can't do that.

It should be incredibly beautiful
down there in October.

I can cover for you a couple of days,
but I haven't heard anything. Understood?

Understood.

Mads. Mads?

- This is a loose thread.
- Come on.

Isn't this just a bad excuse to get away?

If you don't want to come along,
I'll go myself. Come on.

- Is he sleeping?
- Mmhmm. Congrats.

- Congrats?
- My dad told me everything.

- What?
- That you're going to have your own shop.

Oh, yeah, yeah. It ...

You are so clever.

I'm so proud of you. Come here.

Do you think we'll get rich now?
Can we afford to move?

- Do you always work so late?
- Tobias.

Thanks.

- Enjoy.
- Thanks.

It's a cliché, but I've missed it.

A beef patty with fried onions and potatoes.

- Skål.
- Skål.

- How's the lawyer husband doing?
- Steen?

Well, I think.

We divorced two years ago. He found
a new wife who has two older children.

- No kidding. How is that?
- It's ...

I don't know.

Before, I felt so lucky.
I wasn't like my uncool girlfriends.

I had a nice man and a handsome son.

Now I can only concentrate on work.

Maybe I'll get number two at some point,
but otherwise I'm doing well.

But now, two years later ...
I don't know that much.

- How old is he?
- He's seven. Going into the first class.

- Now he's moving to Paris.
- With his father?

But how's it going with you?
Are you doing well?

Yeah ...

- I've also been married.
- Okay.

And also had a child.

No ...

That's Ashley. She's three years old.
Her mother is English.

- She's so pretty, Tobias.
- That she is. Yeah.

I don't know much, either.

I've also been divorced.

Mads ...

- Mads, wake up.
- What's going on?

- We're there.
- Okay.

- Is the factory in this area?
- Yeah. A couple kilometers away.

But there's a hotel over here.

- Hey. Can't we just have a little one?
- Now?

No, I think I'm too tired, Mads.

- Alf, come on. We'll just have a little one.
- It's late.

You slept the whole way.
No, it's late.

I can't sleep now.
I'm going out to get some air.

We're leaving early in the morning
at 9:00 to see Dr. Belau, right?

- 9:00.
- Yeah.

- Tobias?
- Yeah.

- I need to go now.
- Okay.

What do you have?

The Financial Gazette was involved in
the opening of the factory in Poland.

We had invited a bunch of papers,
and they saw Mia Hermansen there.

All the journalists were asked
to sign one of these.

An NDA saying that everything
they saw at the factory was confidential.

- And we can use it?
- Yeah. The FG can't write anything.

It's there in black and white.

This is good.
What do we do now?

I think I'll take it to the paper now
and talk to them.

- That's good work, Claudia.
- Thanks.

- Did something happen?
- Happen?

You just seem like ...
Did you get a haircut?

- No.
- There's something.

That was all I wanted to talk to you about.

Claudia?

See you later, right?

Is everything under control?

We found out that the Financial Gazette
signed a confidentiality agreement with us.

And?

We can sue them if they keep it up.

I don't think it's enough.

I don't think that will stop that article.

Let Claudia do her job, eh?

I wonder if we can't find a solution
that doesn't involve you?

This is a written non-disclosure agreement
from Energreen's business in Poland.

This is your coworker's signature on the
same agreement, dated 2013-03-29.

This is it with the fine print. And this is
what you should be worried about.

"In the event of a violation of
the agreement on any medium -

- Energreen has the right to full
compensation for lost revenue."

You're aware that we're a newspaper.
You can't just threaten us ...

It could be difficult for us to assess
possible revenue and future revenue -

- but an estimate would be between
100 million kroner and 1 billion.

We have about 3000 subscribers.
You won't get much from suing us.

The Financial Gazette may think
this is funny, but we don't.

We're facing a breakthrough that will make
Energreen a big player in the market.

That will ensure better and cleaner energy
not only for Denmark, but the whole world.

Exactly. So why not tell us about your progress?

Why has the factory been closed for
several years? That's what the article asks.

We're in a race with this research,
and there can only be one winner.

Our competitors should not be
looking over our shoulder.

Print that article and you are finished.

Hi, it's me.
The article was stopped. See you later.

Open the bag.

Let me see again.
Nicky, pull 25 large for the commission.

- Is the guy taking the money a biker?
- How much is left, then?

- Why can't you call a spade a spade?
- Bimse, shut your ass!

There are 2 million minus 25 and
10 we used. The rest is there.

Take it to this address and deliver it
to a guy named Kalle.

- And he'll exchange it?
- Yeah.

Why couldn't we just deliver
the money to their place?

- Where?
- The fucking biker fortress.

- To call it that is fucking stupid.
- Why?

They call it a fortress because they
put a fence around an ugly house.

Are they role-playing?

You can try asking them.
They're coming.

Let's do this.

Which of you is Jan's boy?

I'm his son-in-law.

- And what's your name?
- Nicky.

- Bimse.
- The money.

It's fine. I'll call Jan when it's sorted.

Is that it?

Did you want a receipt?

- No, I just thought maybe ...
- Just what?

Listen, little man. I'm doing you a favor.
Get going.

That was all of our money.

It's gone now.

Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!
Fucking shit!

- You look like hell, Mads.
- Thanks.

- Didn't you sleep?
- Sure.

A little.

- Kristina took the kids.
- What? Did she move?

No. A couple days. She wants me
to think about what's going to happen.

- Good. Then there's still hope.
- I haven't been an idiot.

Right? She has.

Let's drive. Come on.

It should be right here.

Is he not the source?

Did your girlfriend lie, or what?

We need to go there.
Out to the factory.

- This is Alexander.
- It's me. I have some bad news.

It's Mia. She decided to publish
the article on her blog.

The paper tried to stop her,
but she doesn't care.

- What now?
- I'm going out to her now.

If she goes after us in this way,
then she'll destroy her career.

- Call when you've talked to her.
- Yeah, I will. Bye.

- Tobias speaking.
- Hi, Tobias.

- Sorry. This is my 'international phone'.
- It sounded very 'international'.

- Thanks for yesterday.
- Thank you.

I'm really, really sorry, but I can't see
you tonight. A problem came up at work.

I hope it's not anything that could
hurt our investments ... Hello?

- Of course it won't affect our investments.
- Claudia, relax. It was a joke.

- Oh, okay.
- Can we meet tomorrow, then?

- I'm flying in the afternoon.
- I have Bertram tomorrow.

We're going to an aquarium
if you like fish ...

- I love fish. Is he against it?
- No, I don't think so.

Mia Hermansen?

Yeah?

Hi. Claudia Moreno.

- I've heard about you.
- Oh yeah?

Not many people can make my boss afraid.
You must be clever. Well done.

- That wasn't to frighten you.
- Wasn't it?

I have something you should see about our
project. It's important you understand...

It's important I understand that it can save
the Danish economy and the world.

- Wait ...
- No. I've heard it again and again.

Never a damn thing that's concrete
because it's hot air.

- I can assure you ...
- Have you looked in the mirror?

People saving the world don't go around
in Chloé shoes and with designer bags.

I'm not stopping anything for your sake.
Can I give you some good advice?

Go home and look in the mirror.

If this is revealed as a scam,
you'll go down with it.

You have a little boy, right?
Should he see his mother in prison?

What are they doing in there so late?

They're changing their lab equipment, maybe.

- I'm going to take a look.
- Mads. Mads!

- We won't get anything out of this.
- What are they doing?

- I don't know. Let's go before they see us.
- No. I just want to look. Wait a second.

We have no jurisdiction here.
If they notice us, we'll destroy everything.

It's 11:00 at night. It seems strange.
Look at those boxes.

- Hey!
- Okay. We're leaving. Come on.

Mads, come on. Now.

You are a fucking idiot, Mads.
You wanted to fight a guard.

Was that why you wanted to come to Poland?

So you could smash our case and my career?

I said sorry.
I just reacted, okay?

- Mads ...
- Yeah.

Don't think about your marriage
through a bottle.

- You ordered the first ones, right?
- No, I didn't.

I should have been out with Mia tonight.

Alf, listen. She's not going anywhere. Right?

I bought tickets to the Royal Danish
Theater. Now there are two empty seats.

Did you say where you were going?

What do you think?

You lied a little.
She lied a little.

Things are looking up, no?

Let's go home and sleep.

- Alf!
- Where the fuck have you been, man?

- What do you think of this?
- What is it?

It's an access card to the factory.
Now we can go in there.

- That's fucking risky.
- Do you have a better idea?

No.

- Hey.
- Hi.

- What did she say?
- That we're crooks.

Can I offer you anything?
A glass of wine?

Yeah, thanks.

I have one proposal left for what we can do.

- What's that?
- What if we hire her?

- If we hire her?
- Yeah, as a press coordinator.

- Make her part of the team.
- You think it will work?

I don't know. We need to try.
I can go out to her again tomorrow.

Fine. Do that.

- It's cozy.
- Thanks.

It's funny that you and Tobias
know each other from the old days.

- Is that funny?
- Yeah. No ...

- How did you know that?
- He told me.

- Not to pry.
- No, no. It's fine. It's okay.

- How long were you together?
- A year.

I'd just gotten into law when
we met each other.

He seems like a nice guy.
He does.

- He is.
- You should put in a good word for us.

Let me know when you've talked to Mia.

Yeah.

Yeah?

- Do you have five minutes?
- I have clients.

With the lights off?

- What's up?
- About the money we found ...

Yeah?

There was also this.
With a bunch of numbers on it.

- What kinds of numbers?
- Like for some accounts.

Large amounts. Many millions.

- Why didn't you say before?
- I don't know.

I think someone's looking for
this information and they'll pay for it.

What about your father-in-law?

- This is without my father-in-law.
- I'll keep that.

So we have an agreement?

What the hell ...

That's too damn weird.

What do we do?

- What do we do?
- Yeah.

We go home.

See you on Friday, Sweetie.
Have fun at the aquarium.

- See you later, Dad.
- That we will, Sweetie.

- Don't start playing. We leave in five mins.
- I need my pirate sword.

Next week there's an orientation day
at the new school in Paris. Wednesday.

- It would be good if he went.
- Yeah, of course he can.

- We'll fly home the same night.
- That's fine.

- How often can you see him?
- Just as often as now.

Steen's looking for an apartment
for me there, so I can be there.

He can come home here, too.
The distance is just psychological.

I need to get used to it.

Listen. He's a real fantastic kid.

If you doubt that you can do without him,
you should do something about it.

- Sorry. I don't want to meddle.
- It's okay.

It's good that you're meddling.

I need to go if I'm going to catch my flight.

- I'll try to come next weekend.
- Bertram.

Can you come say goodbye to Tobias?

See you later, Pirate.

I'll call you.

[Dear Steen, we need to talk
about Paris again.]

Ah! Where are they, those sharks?

Hi.

- Kristina?
- We couldn't stay at my mother's.

- Where are the kids?
- Esther's at a friend's house.

- Albert is at hockey.
- Okay.

That's good, because ...

I thought we could talk a little.

I've been very angry, and when
I thought about you and him -

- I became furious.
It came as a huge shock.

I still don't understand how you could
do that. How you could ...

So ...

But when I think about what we have,
Kristina. Us two.

All four of us.

It's too important.

It's the only thing that means anything to me.

All that shouldn't be crushed by anger.
If I feel cheated -

- then that's how it will be.
So I've made a decision.

I'm packing the anger away.

- Mads, I ...
- Can I just finish talking?

I've thought this through.
I won't suppress the anger.

I'm going to forgive you.

So that's what I'm doing.
So we can forget all about this.

- I forgive you.
- Mads, Mads ...

- I need to tell you something.
- Yeah, of course.

I also thought a good deal
while I was at my mother's.

It's a very, very difficult decision.

I don't think that what you're
suggesting is the right solution.

- Even if it's very nice of you.
- What do you mean?

I don't think we should
be together anymore.

Alf, I'm sorry. I found your address online.

Oh, this isn't a good time, Mads.
I'm having guests. Mia's coming.

Of course, yeah.
I just don't know where I should go.

- Can't you go home?
- It's not my home anymore.

- Didn't you talk to Kristina?
- She thinks we should separate.

That doctor she met clearly got her
to feel like herself again.

And I don't fucking know what that is.

- I don't know what to say, Mads.
- I don't know, either.

I thought I was the one who
was thinking about it.

I have no idea what I should do.

- Come in. I'll write to Mia.
- Okay.

- When is she coming, Mom?
- I don't know, Honey. Soon, hopefully.

There she is. I'll be back in two minutes, okay?

Mia?
