Original subtitles

Pernille Bjerre, 44, defense attorney

enters a restaurant at 6:49 p.m.

She orders two drinks, so she must have been waiting for somebody.

Three minutes later, she's shot in the head by a perp in a black hoodie.

He disappeared so fast

that witnesses only noticed the black hoodie.

So black hoodie, gunshot wound to the head.

Is it the same perp as Patrick's?

Ballistics are still investigating the cartridge found here.

But the same perp could have committed the two murders.

There are similarities

but also slight differences.

This killing is more focused.

He enters, shoots and exits. No returning to empty the clip.

-What does that mean? -Patrick's murder was personal.

If this is the same perp and motive

he's learned to control his hatred of the victim.

Frederik? It's Ballistics.

Thanks. Frederik Havgaard.

The markings on the cartridges are identical.

The same pistol was used on Patrick and Pernille.

THOSE WHO KILL

Ballistics show that Pernille and Patrick

were killed by the same pistol, so most likely the same perp.

Johannes Jespersen was in custody, so he's no longer a suspect.

-Jacob, share your info with us. -Gladly.

Pernille Bjerre represented several Legion-5 gangbangers

including Patrick Antonsen,

when he was accused of killing Lene Jespersen.

We need to know Pernille's movements

in the days before the murder. Okay?

Louise and I will question her colleagues.

Any changes in the profile?

No changes in the profile in your files. That's still valid.

The new question is:

Who kills a gangbanger and a defense attorney?

And why? What's the link?

LAWYER KILLED IN COPENHAGEN RESTAURANT

You can't hit people just because you think they're stupid!

-Good morning. What's up? -Move.

What's eating her?

My's teachers called a meeting with us because she hit two 5th graders.

Shall I talk to her or do you want to?

Would you? She won't listen to me.

Sure.

Hey.

Could you take them off, so we can talk?

Who are those two wimps?

You can tell me. Who did you hit?

Hasse and Tomas asked for it.

They tried to take off Anika's blouse.

-That was wrong of them. -She cried a lot.

-But they wouldn't stop. -And then you hit them?

You did the right thing.

I'm proud of you.

Come on. Let's go.

-Which way is it? -That way. I'll just text Karl back.

How is he?

Fine. Misses his dad. His dad misses him. You know what it's like.

-I told him about you. -Okay.

What?

I thought us being a couple wasn't a secret.

It isn't.

I just don't really know when to tell kids something like that.

You tell them when you're ready.

He's in Copenhagen. Will you have dinner with us?

Yes. Yes, I'd love to.

Yeah? Great.

I'll text him right away.

This is where we go in.

I remember when Pernille took Patrick Antonsen's case.

It got a lot of press coverage.

There were many gangbangers on Pernille's client list.

Was she interested in gang crime?

She thought everyone deserved a proper defense.

The socially or mentally disadvantaged

have a right to a proper defense, too.

Work was only about one thing for her. Justice.

What if her clients got a tough sentence?

How did they react towards her?

Everyone loved Pernille, even if they were convicted.

She saw them as people, not criminals.

Pernille was waiting for someone before she was shot.

Do you know who she was meeting?

A publisher.

-Was the publisher a client of hers? -No.

She signed a book contract.

-What was the book about? -She said she couldn't talk about it.

But it seemed to stress her out.

We'd like the name of the publisher.

Hi, Jacob. Aksel Bramsen has a publishing company called Barnaby.

Find out everything you can about him and call me back.

I found the address. It's about five minutes away.

The deadline is at three and we're sticking to that.

Well, just tell them. This way.

It's about Pernille Bjerre's death.

Her death is a huge loss in every way.

She was a good person

and gradually becoming a voice in the public debate.

What was her book about?

An exclusive insight into the gang environment.

She wanted to give the small fry a voice

and focus on the kingpins that the police never catch.

So she knew how gangs punish whistleblowers.

The idea was to root out their self-policing.

Our books are meant to initiate public debate.

Did Pernille ever consider her project dangerous?

She had a pseudonym and her sources were anonymized.

We took every precaution.

Did you know the names of her sources?

As her publisher, we talked content.

But on the whole, we let authors do the writing.

Then we proofread and create covers that sell books.

Three days ago, Patrick Antonsen from Legion-5 was shot dead.

Pernille represented him. Was he in the book?

I didn't know she represented him. We didn't talk about ongoing cases.

He was killed and she didn't tell you?

We had planned to meet last night.

Perhaps she would have told me.

I had to cancel because my daughter was sick.

Did Pernille call you after Patrick was killed?

She might have. I get lots of calls. I rarely pick up.

Authors constantly call me.

Let me see ...

Yes, she did call me three days ago.

Did she leave a message?

Yes, she did.

-Shall we hear it? -Please.

Pick up! Patrick Antonsen, the gangbanger who was just shot

was to provide the name of a killer for my book.

I'm afraid this could be dangerous.

So call me. Now.

POLICE

Patrick was also a source,

planning to reveal a killer in Pernille's book.

That's our motive.

That jibes with what we found on her computer.

They wrote e-mails while he was inside

and she was going to interview him.

That's consistent with his leaving the gang.

But who did he seek out besides Pernille?

He must've told someone. Maybe a girlfriend.

Not Amalie. Patrick kept a lot of secrets from her.

Could he have told his parents? Did they indicate that?

Not at all. They hardly said a word.

Let's talk to them again.

Pernille Bjerre was probably murdered

because Patrick told her about a killer.

So if Patrick indicated that he knew about a murder

we need to know.

Patrick never talked about Legion-5.

He knew we hated it.

Even the smallest detail can be of help.

Do you remember the night he went to his first party at Legion-5?

You were upset

because he wouldn't tell you where, but you knew it was a gang party.

That night two young boys were shot

outside a video arcade in the Northwest.

As soon as I read about it

I knew that Patrick and his new friends were involved.

I drove over there.

Of course there was nothing to see.

When I came home, Patrick was sitting in the kitchen.

Eating toasted buns ...

... and pretending he hadn't heard about the shooting.

But it was in every online paper.

So you thought he knew about it?

He certainly didn't tell us the whole truth about that night.

Patrick's dad was right about the unsolved double murder.

Two gangbangers were shot three years ago. It was before my time.

-Who were the victims? -These guys.

Nabil Salim.

And Arman Mirza.

Both in their early 20s and members of the BGF gang.

Were they at war with Legion-5 then?

The double murder concluded a long feud between the two gangs.

How?

The double murder was payback for an attempted hit on Robin Smith.

BGF was behind it.

Everyone thought it would start a revenge cycle

but BGF turned the other cheek and peace was negotiated.

-Where were they shot? -In the head.

Just as brutal as in your cases.

The perp disappeared in a car whose driver was never found either.

Could it have been our perp?

I don't know, but the perp and the M.O. appear similar.

It makes no sense for the perp to shoot rival gangbangers.

Patrick was Legion-5 and the boys were BGF.

Off hand, the two incidents serve different purposes.

The double murder was part of gang warfare and payback for Robin Smith.

The two new murders serve a more preventive purpose.

Patrick and Pernille died

because they could bust the perp for double murder.

So it could be the same perp.

Of course My mustn't play policeman. I understand. I'll talk to her.

I'm afraid that's not enough. It's not the first time My's in trouble.

She's become more outward reacting

so now we'll involve the school psychologist.

-No, there's nothing wrong with My. -She has a violent temper.

I talked to My.

She said Hasse and Tomas tried to pull off Anika's blouse.

I know that's what My says.

But you don't believe her?

-No. -She said she asked for help.

But you wanted your coffee break first, so she helped Anika.

She defended someone weaker than her. I think you should praise her.

Regardless of her trying to help a friend, we don't condone hitting.

But you do. As long as it's the boys, it's fine.

But when my daughter defends a friend, it's a problem.

Thank you. We won't get any further.

I'll talk to the boys' parents and I hope it will solve the problem.

I hope so. The girls should be able to play in peace.

Please call me next time, before involving a psychologist.

Thanks. Have a good day.

-Gunnar speaking. -Hi. It's Louise ... Bergstein.

Great to hear from you. I hear you have another murder.

Yes, we do. Frederik wants me on the case on a permanent basis

so I was wondering, and feel free to refuse

if you'd like to take over my class. It's just one day a week.

That should be doable. Come over now, and we'll talk.

Hey.

I thought we were going home together.

-I have to go see Gunnar. -Right now?

Yes, if he's to take my class tomorrow,

we have to go through the lesson plan.

But we agreed you were gonna meet Karl tonight.

-I looked forward to it. -Yes, so did I. But I don't ...

Can't you have dinner and I'll come later?

Some other time. No pressure. We'll figure it out.

I guess if I leave now, right now, I can do both.

-Alright? -Are you sure?

Yes, I'm sure.

Right.

Then hurry.

Go!

-Hello? -Hi, it's Louise.

Come on in.

-Hi. -Sorry to come barging in like this.

-Gunnar told me you were coming. -I'm Louise.

He's taking my class at the academy.

Lena Nymark.

-Let me hold your bag. -Thank you.

Gunnar just got back from the station.

He's back at the computer again.

I know what that's like. May I hang it up? Thanks.

-Here. It's the door on the right. -Thanks very much.

-Here. -Thanks.

-I already have these. -Naturally. You have everything.

More than the academy has.

-May I? -Sure.

-A first edition. -I found it in a New York bookstore.

Take a look.

You met them?

They held a seminar for the FBI many years ago.

My students have no idea how over-qualified their sub is.

But you'll be back soon. Isn't the investigation progressing?

Yes, we've had a little breakthrough.

You'll close the case before you know it.

Our theory is that the new victims were killed because they could reveal

the identity of a previous perp who killed two gangbangers

three years ago.

It sounds like you found the motive. Are you sure it's the same perp?

All four are similar. A head shot that looks like an execution.

None of them were displayed or manipulated.

So if you find the gangbangers' killer, you can close the case.

Perhaps. The file on the old case is a bit lacking.

Not all colleagues are clever. Thanks to your profiling

the girls who were trapped in a basement were found.

Have you read up on me?

Can't help it. It goes with the turf.

It's nice to have you here. Shall we look at that lesson plan?

That was fun!

Damn, you were good.

I went to lots of those at My's age.

It's always same shit.

Hi, sweetie. Are you alright?

-Was Silva very angry? -No, Kim talked to her. It's fine.

-What's that? -A man came by with it for Kim.

You'll have no more trouble with Hasse and Tomas now.

Who sends you gifts?

-It's a mistake. -The card says "Kim".

GOOD JOB

Who's Robin?

Robin? He's the one from the cottage.

-Go upstairs. -Can't we open the chocolate?

It's not for us. Go on up. I'll be there in a minute.

Upstairs.

Robin from Legion-5?

I have nothing to do with those losers anymore.

So who was this Robin at the cottage?

There wasn't anyone.

-Why does Robin send you gifts? -I don't know.

You promised that you'd avoid them.

Then let's throw it out.

I've done this before. Don't lie!

Why punish me when your ex was a dick?

You're lying!

Forget the basket. Let's watch a movie.

Out.

-Are you kidding? -Out.

Out!

-Fuck off! -Do I have to go ...

-Out! -Melissa!

Stop. Stop.

-Stop, Karl. -I'll beat you, Dad.

Yes!

Hey, Frederik?

Hey.

-Coffee? -No thanks.

Okay.

Don't make a date and then not turn up.

We were waiting for you.

I texted you. I was so tired.

Okay. If you're not ready to meet Karl, say so.

It's not because of Karl.

Then what? Is it us? Is that why we're running around hiding?

No, Frederik. It's because we're at work now.

I'm just trying to be professional.

Then let's be professional.

So I'll be professional and go to the briefing.

The investigation of the two BGFs was shelved

when the gangs made peace.

Okay. But something must put us on track of the perp. Like what?

I reread the report late last night.

The regulars at the bar next to the arcade were never questioned.

Why?

That's before my time, but we could do that now.

Yes, we will.

Coming, Jacob?

Sure I remember the night those two were whacked outside the arcade.

-But you weren't questioned? -You said you'd call, but never did.

Did you know the victims?

-Do I look like a gangbanger? -No.

Did you see anyone fleeing the area?

-I heard a car. -Driving away.

-But you didn't see it. -The door was closed.

You must've talked about who did it.

Yes.

But you won't tell us about it?

Well ...

A while ago, some guy said he knew the driver.

Of the getaway car?

Did the guest name the person?

He called him Long Jimmy.

-It sounds like a cartoon name. -That's why I remember it.

Long Jimmy must know who shot them.

Yes, I'll talk to Møller.

Piss off! I'm taking My to school. You can't be here.

-I can't hear you. -Did you sleep in the car?

-Let me out, so we can talk. -There's nothing to talk about.

I know I lied. I'm sorry.

Are you back in Legion-5?

No. Robin found me in the cottage.

I owed him a favor, so I had to go to fucking Copenhagen.

But it's all over now. Robin won't bother us again, honey.

It's just me, you and My.

She doesn't understand what's going on. She's only nine.

What did you tell her?

That you were working.

-So you lied to protect her. -Not the same.

It is. We protect the ones we love.

We might have the name of the driver from the double murder. Møller?

It could be Jimmy Sørensen, aka Long Jimmy.

He's known to us and a Legion-5 hang-around.

He was in Afghanistan and doesn't have a criminal record.

Thanks. Jacob?

I came across the name Jimmy before.

Then I reread Pernille's notes and she wrote that they had met.

Jimmy Sørensen could be one of her sources.

Patrick was killed because he tipped Pernille off.

The same can happen to Jimmy. What did you find out?

Jimmy has a bedsit, but the neighbors never see him.

He got a fine for selling methadone at Ryparken Station a month ago.

-That's the latest. -Thanks.

Set up a surveillance team.

-What's up? -Jimmy is here.

-Where? -In the glassed-in area.

-I'll go talk to him. -We're ready if you need us.

Are you Jimmy?

-Depends. -New customer.

Okay. What do you need?

Methadone.

-You don't use methadone. -No, it's for my father.

Okay.

-How much do you need? -Ten pills or whatever you've got.

Move!

Stop!

Stop!

Stop! Police!

No, no!

Just go!

-Stop! -Just go!

-Stop! -Don't stop. He's psycho.

-Go! -Open!

Police. Remain seated. Jimmy, it's over.

You can't get away. Let me see your hands.

Let me see your hands. Raise them.

Thanks.

-I heard that Jimmy roughed you up. -Yes.

But he's here now.

-Are you okay? -Yes. Thanks.

Will you help me with the interview?

I thought you'd prefer Jacob.

He doesn't have your mental insight.

Is that right?

Of course. Yes.

Here.

Let's go in.

-What am I in for? -Possession of euphoriants.

And selling prescription drugs. Here.

Eat it.

This is Louise Bergstein, my colleague and a psychologist.

What were you doing on 23 March 2021?

What does that have to do with my meds?

Just tell me.

-My memory isn't good. -I'll help you.

Nabil Salim and Arman Mirza

were killed outside an arcade in the Northwest.

-Does that jog your memory? -I don't know them.

I know that you only drove the car.

We want the name of the passenger.

It couldn't be me. I don't have a license.

This says you got your license at 18. And you got PTSD in Afghanistan.

I think we can help each other. Okay?

We just need that name.

Who were you driving that evening?

-I can't say anything. -Can't you?

Jimmy, we just want to help you.

I understand

that you're trying to cover for your friend. You seem trustworthy.

But your friend isn't.

He already killed two people who knew about the murders.

As long as he's at large

you might be next.

Don't you see? Your friend will come for you if we don't stop him.

Jimmy, tell us his name.

-Will you protect me? -Yes. If you tell us his name.

Do you promise?

Jimmy, I think you should tell us.

His name is Kim.

Kim what?

Kim Jensen.
