Previously on Betrayal

What's wrong?
Something's wrong.

This business with Royackers.
- What about it?

You've been called to testify, right?

My lawyer says the Prosecution
sees him as their chief witness.

What shall we do about it?

This is a photo moment.

If they think they have something on him,
we've had it.

There'll be nothing left. For anyone.

He's with Steenhouwer half the time.

In some way or other, we must
get you to live on your own.

Move on?
For me, there's no moving on anymore.

You can, but I can't.

Your fault. Since you started...

...screwing around...
- Shut up.

You know I love you a lot, right?
- Is that so?

He's not answering his phone
and he left a weird note:

Don't worry, everything will be fine. Dad.

BETRAYAL

SPECIAL CONDITIONS

They'll fetch us shortly.

How are things at home?

Alright.

Hello, I'm Caya Middelburg.

Come this way.

I'm sorry you had to wait.

We were here two days ago too.
- Yes, so I heard.

Come through.

Sit down.

You phoned a few times too.

You're worried about your father.

He didn't come home all weekend.

No phone calls, no text messages,
nothing.

And you're the older sister?

Her father is my boyfriend.

Oh, and your name is?
- I've already given it.

One more time for me, please.
- Iris Hoegaarde.

My parents split up and she is...

It says in the report he left a note.

Dear kids, I'm confused right now
after all that's happened recently.

I need time to think.
Don't worry, I'll be back quite soon.

Everything will be fine, Dad.

'Don't worry.'
- I don't believe that.

I said so straightaway. As if he'd just go.

We were going to Paris for the weekend.
- He'd never do this.

And why not?

A suicide attempt.
That's quite something.

What was his reaction?

He thought it was terrible.
Even though they're no longer together.

Perhaps you should know that his wife...

...Marit's mother, is in jail
because she tried to murder me.

Murder you?

You understood it?
- Yes, I think so.

He's very sensitive.
- You can say that again.

But it's vital you remain consistent
and make him stick to the agreement.

Bj6rn, let's go.

Good luck.

Bye, Bjtorn.
- Bye.

So less gaming and find yourself a job.
Start looking on internet.

But I have a job, with you.
- And learn to cook.

I always cook with you.
- On your own, Bjorn.

The whole idea is for you to be
more independent. You're now...

Hey, what a surprise.
Last week it was your sister but she...

What?

How come?

If I can do anything...

Okay, take care.
- What's up?

Willem's disappeared.
- What?

So on Friday we'll go...

What?

Steenhouwer.

Did he feel responsible?

For the suicide?
- I asked Marit.

Maybe.

A bit, I guess.

A bit? You said:

My Dad said she couldn't see a way out,
and she had no future.

Because of his affair...

...with you.
- Yes.

That may be so, but...

This is a classic situation.
It happens far more than you think...

...that people go off the rails emotionally...
- Is this his handwriting?

Shouldn't we be discussing this?

Yes...

...I think so.

Why do you think it isn't?
- Because this can't be true.

It's impossible.

There was a note saying...

...he wanted to go away to think.

Dad's gone.
- Yes, I heard you.

When did it happen?

A few days ago now.

We didn't want to tell you straightaway.
- Are you kids eating properly?

Eating properly? Mum...
- Well, I know you.

You only eat pizzas and fried eggs.

Johan's retirement means
he'll be sorely missed at the office...

But it spells trouble for his wife, who,
after all these years will be saddled...

What?

I, um...
- I'm busy.

Me too.
- Fine, no need to bother each other then.

I just wanted to say I'm ready
to tackle some bigger cases again.

You don't say.
Quiet in the traffic violations department?

Too few people jumping red lights?

They're pleased with me. Ask them.
But I'm just a little overqualified.

Yes, you could be.
- As we're so understaffed, I thought...

...I'd just mention it.
- Thanks, duly noted.

Why not?

Keep trying, I must speak to him
before court.

Look.

Where?
- Where? Here.

They're building a business park.
- What's wrong with that?

Nothing, except the country has 40,000
already and half of them are empty.

An office is not a building anymore,
it's an investment project.

They must be built,
whether they're rented out or not.

Photograph the empty site, then the whole
building process about once a month.

Can you do that?
Or do you only do people?

While I get to grips with the zoning plan.

Have I offended you?

An empty site not good enough for you?
- No.

What's wrong then?

Nothing.
- Oh, okay.

You don't have to tell me.
- It's nothing.

Did you know...

...that suspicion is my core business?

So what will the police do now?

They'll grudgingly check to see
if it's really his handwriting.

But what...

...if he really wanted to get away
for a while?

We were going to Paris,
I was already at the station.

It's as if she's glad he's disappeared.

Don't cry.

I'm not crying.

I phoned grandpa. Guess what he said?

He'll always be there for us.
- That's so cool.

Hungry?

The stupid cow only went on
about 'missing persons protocols'.

Maybe she's right.
- Would Dad abandon us?

How can you say that?
- You heard what he said to me, right?

He was really upset. Afterwards.
- Yes, that's what I mean.

I don't follow you.
- He's messed up big time...

...and that's why...

Anyway, I have bring the police
some stuff.

Mike. Over here.

What's up?
- Is this the same handwriting?

If you want to know for sure,
let the experts have a look at it.

Sorry, but why are you here?

Do you mind if I...
- He's my dad, right?

Officially, you have nothing to do with him.

We'll keep you informed.

Sorry, but I'm going with you.
- If I say you can't...

Marco, chill.

This is definitely
Mr Steenhouwer's writing.

It can't be.

I understand your concerns, honestly.
Read the whole report, if you like.

Again, I can assure you
this happens a lot.

And in most cases, the person gets
in touch again after a while.

If we all say this is totally out of character,
and he'd never do this.

We don't know that.
Speak for yourself.

Don't worry.

I'd like to wait for a few days.

If he hasn't got in touch by the end
of the week, come back.

First, I'm very sorry about what happened
but as your lawyer it is my duty...

...to tell you that you may now be eligible
for 'temporary release'.

Why?
- You've been diagnosed...

...as severely depressed,
and this prison isn't suited to that.

And worse, the children
are home alone and not cared for.

So we can argue
that you're unfit for detention.

I've talked to the prison doctor.
- And?

I'll see what I can do for you.

I'll ask for priority,
due to the urgency of the case.

Portrait exhibition by Iris Hoegaarde

Businessman dead in canal

Woman gunned down in court
Suspect: Els C.

Caya Middelburg here.

Careful, careful, you'll lose your fingers.

And cut the pieces finer.
- Why not do it yourself then?

What was our agreement?
- Yes, yes.

Did you check the internet for nice jobs?
- A bit.

And?

I've spoken to all my contacts
and no one's seen or heard anything.

Willem just goes off.
What's the guy up to?

I'm off home. See you tomorrow.
- I'll see you out.

Jesus.
- Sorry, don't be startled.

You're here all day?
- Yes, someone must answer the phone...

...and talk to clients.

Can I ask you something?
- I have a bus to catch.

But you can walk with me.

What are you doing?

Why?
- Have you seen anything worthwhile?

I'll say it once more.
Stop this eternal gaming.

You do the groceries and cook.
This evening we'll find a job on internet.

Okay, we'll do it another way.

I just got it.

Dad.

Damn it, Dad.

No.

I fancy cauliflower this evening.
See you later.

You probably know Willem better
than me. This isn't like him.

What?

In the 10-odd years
I've worked for him I've seen it all:

The difficult start, the Couwenberg days,
that awful fuss with the trial.

And whatever you think of what he did
for that man, he was kind of happy.

With Elsie and the kids.
Until you suddenly came along.

It was great for you two, but both Marit
and Marco must redo this school year.

And Elsie lost her restaurant
and is in prison.

Yes, and why is that?

Everyone's trying to convince me
Willem feels guilty but he's not like that.

Have you noticed
how he looked recently?

As long as I've known him...

...Willem has always had a spot
no one can reach.

That no one can reach, if you ask me.
I don't know.

Sorry, I have to go.

All the best.

What?

What's his name?

Royackers.
- That's the councillor.

One of his party's crown princes.

Yes, I know him.

It gives me great pleasure to finally lay
this foundation stone for The Magnesium.

With my good friend Mr Couwenberg.

Huub, shall we?

Are you okay?

It's The Magnesium.

Built by Couwenberg.
- With a couple of municipal services.

Property developers can't wait
to tender for a project like that.

Each tender is better than the last.

There were at least three, let me check...

...that were between 15 and 40 million
euros cheaper...

...but quality-wise just as good.

Even so, Royackers chose Couwenberg.

Despite an office screening warning us
of Couwenberg's reputation.

He put it all aside, then rushed it
through the council meeting.

Hang on.

Yes, it was more expensive
but the council gives top priority...

...to ecological and sustainable building.
This project certainly complies with that.

A choice for one of the other options
may be penny wise...

...but both environmentally,
and in the long-term financially...

...it's pound foolish.

Within six months
the first overruns occurred.

'Approximate estimates'
is the magic term.

Ultimately, The Magnesium
went over budget by 120 million euros.

Remarkably, Royackers
survived all the storms, but...

...he hadn't reckoned
with one of his civil servants.

I have just given an official statement.

Well, I found certain constructions
in the accounts...

...about which I cannot keep silent.

For further details ask the Prosecution...

...who'll be making an official statement.
So this is all for now.

Thank you.
- A whistleblower.

The Prosecution had a case
and Royackers was the patsy.

Yes, I read about it.

Didn't he...? How did it go again?
A few months later...

No, no, I won't do that. No comment.

No, I have no comment to make
except to retract my statement.

Yes, thank you.

The Prosecution looked stupid.

They either had to drop everything
or come up with evidence.

Rumour has it that someone thought
that Willem Steenhouwer...

...may have a few bones
to pick with his former client.

In what way?
- They want him to testify.

But he can't testify against his own client?
Even if he doesn't work for him.

That's true, but...
Didn't he ever mention it?

Was he put under pressure,
or something?

Are you sure?
- Yes, of course.

No judge will want wait for a witness
that's just disappeared.

That means?
- A total blow for the Prosecution.

First the whistleblower retracts, then
they promise a witness they can't present.

It's an embarrassing situation.

They'll go back to their kennel
to lick their wounds.

And it will never ever ever
be brought up again.

The way it all happened is bizarre.

Yes, it's upsetting for your family.

Is there any news about him yet?

Catch you later.

Good afternoon.

Please sit down.

Mrs Couwenberg,
we've considered a few facts.

You're almost halfway
through your sentence.

All your reports are positive,
your conduct is exemplary.

However, there are concerns
about your general mental state.

Your lawyer argues
that you are unfit for detention.

He put forward the special circumstances
at home too, which we won't discuss here.

For us, your home situation
is irrelevant.

But we consider your suicide attempt
as a very serious matter.

For us, a prison transfer with intensive
psychiatric supervision is one option.

However, the prison doctor has huge
doubts about its efficacy.

Therefore we have decided as follows:

We consider you temporarily
unfit for detention.

You will be released temporarily
for a maximum of one month...

...under the strict supervision
of a probation officer.

This means you can serve
your sentence at home for one month.

Under special conditions.

Special conditions?

An electronic ankle bracelet
with location prohibitions.

You may go out
between 8 a.m. and 10 p.m.

You may not leave the country.
You will undergo psychological treatment.

And you may not go within a 3-km radius
of your victim's home.

Mrs Hoegaarde.
- I have new information.

Willem may have wanted to testify
in a fraud case.

What case?
- Against Royackers, the councillor.

Shouldn't you be writing this down?
- Whom is he testifying against?

His former client, Couwenberg.
- That's impossible.

A lawyer has legal advice privilege,
so no lawyer can testify.

Yes I know, but perhaps
it has something to do with it.

He was summoned.

I'll take a look.
I'll call you if I find something.

A ram raid in east.

Know anything about
the Royackers case?

No, only what I read in the newspapers.
Bribery, right?

Will you deal with this?

I have to study, man.
And Mum's home soon.

What's so urgent?
- A safe.

It's a game: how do you crack a safe?

Heard of it?
- No.

Ever play poker?

Do you have any idea?

There are 12 numbers.
- Yes, it says so here.

It's not that complicated,
if you can remember them.

Most people use their own
date of birth or their kids'.

But that's not 12 numbers.
- No, so it's tricky...

...as then it's either two birth dates
or extra numbers.

1, 2, 3 or whatever.

This is not a game, Bj6rn.

What's this about?

I'll tell you sometime.

Bye.

They never had any proof
against Couwenberg, right?

Do you think he might have done
something bad?

I don't know.

The police won't damn well do anything.

Do you know anyone in the police?

Or in the Justice Department?

The longer they wait the colder the trail,
they say.

Hey, Carolien.
Great of you to come so quickly.

No problem, I have to study
for my exams anyway.

Mum is going to see Dad.
But she's not going to make up.

I won't be late.

If you won't look on those sites,
then I have an idea.

About what?
- Work.

Hello, son.

It's fantastic about your mum.
- Grandpa.

Hi, Marco.

It's mainly the smell.

You sit in a cell and all the time
you're thinking of home.

You imagine things,
but when you come in...

...it's mainly the smell.

It's my new wedding ring,
but a bit different.

I never wanted to see you again, Dad.

And I meant it.

After everything you did to me.

Elsie, do you remember me
coming to see you?

We visited you in hospital
after it had just happened.

'Course I do.

You were there.

My little brother and father.
Despite everything.

And that's how it should be.

It's just like these two here.

They still have their Mum.

I never had that, right Dad?

But now their Dad has walked out.

May I come in?

Come through.

Sorry, I've been a bit busy.
- Doesn't matter.

Would you like a drink?
- Water.

Well, tell me.

To what do I have the honour?

Have you already heard?
- What?

Willem's disappeared.

What Willem?

You okay, Mum?
- Yes sure, why wouldn't I be?

Shall I come and sleep with you tonight?
- No, dope. Sleep in your own bed.

What did you say?

Did I really hear you right?

Tell me it's a joke, Iris.

I realise it's weird.
I know you hate me.

I would never ever ever dare ask you...
Please.

Must I get down on my knees?
- Iris, stop it.

The police won't do anything.
Who knows what they've done to him?

And now I can help you find
your mafia mate?

If I had any other option,
I wouldn't be here.

You're right there with the police.

Dear Iris, here's what I think.

Namely...

...that you can go to ever-burning hell.

You again?

Steenhouwer.

Is it a good idea to mention him?
- He's a vital witness...

...against Royackers, right?

So what?

I messed up the last time.

Yes, mea maxima culpa.
And I'll say it another 20 times if you like.

Sounds good.
- I heard he's vanished.

He's hard to reach, I heard.
But he'll turn up.

But without Steenhouwer
you've barely got a case.

No one's said that.
- Now De Ruiter works for the other side...

...there's only one person here
who knows every micrometre...

...of the Couwenberg file by heart.

And he's standing right here.

It's handy, I reckon.

I'd say: Make the most of it.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Sorry, I just forgot.
It's the first time.

I'll be more careful next time. Bye.

So you're here already?
- Hey, honey.

Hi, Dad.
- I'm out for a drive, just to get out.

How do you feel?

Sometimes good, sometimes not so good.

Bj6rn, will you get some coffee?

It's ages since I've been here.

Jesus, fancy you being here.
I can't get over it.

Me neither.

Dad?
- Yes, sweetie.

How do you think Willem is?

If only we knew.

Just a moment. Caya?

It's Mrs Hoegaarde again. Want to take it?

Give it here.

Van Loon, CID.
I work with Mrs Middelburg.

Isn't she there? She knows all about it.

No, she's busy. But I know the file
so how can I help?

Nothing adds up, but it's also weird
he left his kids a note but not me.

Thank you for calling.
I'll pass on the message.

Thank you.
- Bye.

Pepfin?

You can assist in the Royackers case.

You provide your expertise
on Couwenberg but nothing else.

If I hear good things about you,
we'll talk again.

Why not tell me right away, idiot?
- I just want to game.

Yeah, sure you do.
- This is so unfair.

Where's grandpa?
If he finds out I'm helping you.

He's just left and he won't be back
for a while.

So we're going to crack his safe?

You said dates of birth.
- Jesus, I was just guessing.

You're sure he won't just walk in?
- No, he'll be away for a while, he said.

Honestly. Look.

This is mum's date of birth, and dad's.

And your mum's and mine.

As if I have to know the capital of Drenthe.
- Well, it could be useful.

When would anyone
want to go to Drenthe?

Well, they have megalithic graves there.
It's great.

It's boring.

Jesus, it's so simple.
- What was it then?

What do you think?
- Say it.

Marit and me consecutively.
- But you're twins.

Yes, 181295 twice.

Where are you going?
- To game.

I know the code now.
I'll put it back in a minute.

Darling, I'm so sorry for what I've done
to you but I'm afraid you must forget me.

I loved you, god only knows how much.
But I must admit it's over.

Something's happened which I can't,
or won't, deny any longer.

All the best, Willem.

The doctor, one of those whiz kids,
and some young guy.

That's all I want to know.

Joachim...
- Yes?

Thanks for everything.
- Don't be silly.

You wrote it's very probably
a relationship issue.

Yes. And the Prosecution's
nowhere without this witness?

Yes, definitely.

It's over, you said. The Prosecution
won't dare do anything again.

I received a blank envelope
with no name, nothing.

Who put it in my letterbox?

Go back to prison where you belong.
