It's Tommy. It's all about Tommy.

Where the hell are you?

Everyone knows what happens to an informer.

- Six people d*ed because of you.

- Henrik was his contact.

- We have a match for Solveig's car.

- You have a strong motive for revenge.

I'm glad someone's avenging Tommy's death. They deserved it.

Is this gratitude? You just leave when you don't need me anymore.

He sh*t his father. He'd be in prison if it wasn't for me.

We got this phone from you. We just want to know who you took it from.

- It'll be good to get back to it.

- Only if you can handle it.

- Can't you talk to me?

- We want to talk to Henrik.

- I thought I heard something.

- Christoffer won't answer his phone.

- Something must have happened.

- Maybe his battery just ran out.

Why didn't he call before, then? Did he tell Astrid where he was going?

He went into the city, met some friends, lost track of time.

Tell him to touch base.

But he's 17. Old enough to be out one night.

Christoffer! What are you doing here so early?



- I'm borrowing Harriet's car.

- She never loans out her car.



- She did to me.

- Do you even have a license?

THE BRIDGE IV



- I didn't think you'd be here today.

- Why not?

Because Henrik was sh*t.

I don't think he wants me to visit.

Oh, okay.

What happened?

You were like Siamese twins.

Do you know how Henrik is?

He got a b*llet in the leg. It's nothing serious.

They didn't mean for him to die. You're the one that's going to die.



- Okay.

- Are you coming?



- Did she suffer?

- She was hanged.

She didn't break her neck. She was strangled. It can take time.

But it's nothing we want to know about.

Do you know why she was att*cked?

It's only people who betrayed Tommy. You were his best friend.

He called me.

Tommy called you?

He was going to meet with William somewhere.

I was going to wait for him if he needed to take off.

Does anyone know you betrayed Tommy?

I had such a sh*t conscience, so I...

... I told Tommy's mother at the funeral.



- I hoped she would forgive me.

- Forgive? Solveig Petersen?



- She said I deserved to burn in hell.

- Yeah, sounds like her.

Tommy had a lover. Did you know?

Is that her?

I don't know. I never met her.

Saga Norén, Malmo Police.



- Do you know Stephanie's last name?

- No, I never met her.

We just talked to Moyo.

He told you he didn't pick up Tommy the day he was m*rder*d.

Who did you tell? Stephanie?

You're a nut job, but you understand how bad that looks, right?

Be a sweetie and shut the door behind you.

What the hell were you thinking going to Ystad alone?

I wanted to check Moyo's alibi. I had no other way to know.

It was dumb to go alone. You acted impulsively, irresponsibly...

Yeah, it was dumb, but it wasn't dr*gs.

I didn't start again.

Okay. Good. I'll get someone to pick you up when you're ready.

Why do you feel that you m*rder*d Dan Brolund?

Doesn't she get it? If I said anything, Frank said

-



- that he wouldn't be able to help me anymore.

Frank? Frank Wahlgren?

Yes. He helped us.

But then he became a f*cking psycho

-



- talking about how ungrateful we were because we didn't want to live with him.



- Is it only Frank who lives there?

- No. Astrid, too.

His daughter.



- Does Astrid have a sister?

- No, but I think she did.

I heard her talking Danish by a grave.



- Do you remember the name on the grave?

- Anna.



- Is that Astrid?

- Maybe.



- Look at the photo. Is that Astrid?

- Maybe. I'm not sure.



- Oh. It's you.

- Lillian said you weren't at work.



- Exactly. I needed to sleep more.

- I need your help with something.



- Can you make her 8 years older?

- Yeah...

Hey there.



- You're here.

- Can't fool you.



- Are you sleeping together?

- What do you think?



- It looks like you're sleeping together.

- Then I guess we are.



- Can you make her 8 years older?

- Sure, but I don't have the things here.

Get dressed and we'll go.



- Where have you been?

- John's apartment in Sweden.

I'm going crazy with that lunatic Solveig.

She won't say who she told about Moyo.

She hasn't cooperated so far. Why would she now?

What are you doing?



- I'm looking into Frank Wahlgren.

- Why?



- I want to know more about his daughters.

- Who the f*ck is Frank Wahlgren?

Jonas, Saga. Niels Thormod showed up in another investigation.

Douglas Krabbe. He was reported missing.

When we looked at his phone, we found a lot of calls to you.

Okay. I hired him just after Margrethe's m*rder.



- Why?

- He's a private detective.

I hoped he could find out more than you could.



- Could he?

- He called...



- When?

- Night before last. He wanted to talk.



- Why?

- He wanted to meet.



- Where were you going to meet?

- Stop that, for f*ck's sake.

I'm going to tell you everything. Stop it.

At his office. I went there the day after.

And he wasn't there.

Are you done?

Yes.

What did you do when he wasn't there?

I tried to contact him. He didn't pick up.



- Do you think something happened to him?

- We need the material he gave you. Now.

Of course.



- Thanks.

- You're welcome.

Douglas Krabbe must have gotten some of this from the police.



- Are you sure?

- Yes.

It's not just the press we're leaking to.

That's not good.

I'll call Forensics. From now on, we'll consider this a crime scene.

Check Krabbe's computer and find everything related to Margrethe Thormod.



- How's it going with the photo?

- I did the best I could.



- Send it to me and to Linn.

- Okay.



- Is this Astrid?

- Yes.

Christoffer?

What the hell!

I know where Astrid is. I'm positive.

You found her? Where? Where is she?

At Frank Wahlgren's, the man we questioned about Brolund's disappearance.

And Anna? Where is Anna?

According to the information I have, she's dead.



- But Astrid's alive?

- Yes.

A team is on the way if you want to come along.

Are you busy? Trying to minimize the damage?



- I don't have time for you now, okay?

- Your little protégé stole Harriet's car.

It'll be hard to save them now.



- When? When did he take it?

- Early this morning.

I said they didn't belong here.

And you don't, either.

f*ck!



- Did he k*ll Alice?

- I don't know.

But Anna, she's dead?

There's a gravestone with the name Anna on it. I don't know any more.

What about Astrid? Is she okay?

I've already told you everything I know.

Asking more won't help.

Okay.

Oh, it's you.

I'm calling the police now.



- No, you're not.

- He's been gone too long, Frank.

Give me the phone.

Everything's going to hell, and it's all your fault.

Where are you going now?

I'm going to look for my child.

You're so f*cking ungrateful!

I've done f*cking everything.

What do I get? Nothing! Not sh*t! Damn you.

You're all the same. "Hi, Frank. You're the best, Frank."



- "You're so f*cking nice, Frank!"

- Frank!

Of course everything's fine! You sit in that f*cking house and look down on us.

But you don't know sh*t, Harriet!

You know what? It's over! We're not together anymore.

Take your f*cking brat and get lost. Your ungrateful little snot.

I don't need you! Understand?

Dammit! You sh*t!

Astrid?

Two people are in the house.



- And Astrid is one?

- Her and Frank.



- Frank seems unstable.

- Weapons?

He has a license for three g*ns.

What do we do? Go in or no?

If he's armed, It might be best to negotiate.

Or not.

We go in.

Sit here.

They're going to take everything from me.

What do you mean? Who?

I love you like you were my own. I always have.

It could have been different.



- Frank?

- Your mother...

She wanted to leave after all I did for her.



- They d*ed in a plane crash.

- But it's over now.

Sorry, Astrid. I wish there was another way.

Astrid!

In!

Astrid!

Incredible, Saga! Incredible!

Good, but I missed part of the case. Can I get a report?

Forensics didn't find anything at Nicole and Tobias' or Solveig's camper.

But the camper was in Sweden when Patrik and Leonora were k*lled.

But Solveig was here when Moyo's wife was hanged and Henrik was sh*t.

Moyo told only her that he betrayed Tommy.

She won't say if she told anyone unless we waterboard her.

We can't keep them any longer. We need to let Solveig and Nicole go.

We went through Krabbe's computer. He was very interested in Silas Tuksen.

Tuksen? The treehugger from the gay bar?

It isn't clear why he was interested in Tuksen

-



- but there's a document with his name and Margrethe's and William's.

Okay. See if you can find more on Silas Tuksen.



- I can just take the train.

- Jump in.

This is the last time we talk about my brother.

How long were you together?

It was one time, and we were piss drunk.



- It was at that party...

- One time?

Yeah.

Sonny is my son, and you're my wife.

Everyone makes mistakes. We're going home now.

Hi, sweetie.



- Hi, Grandma.

- I need to borrow your computer.



- The library was closed.

- What's happened?



- Were you at the police station?

- Yeah. They're going to hear about it.

Do you really think someone in the family has someone to do with all this?

Yeah. They're idiots.

What did you say? What did they ask you about?

I said nothing. You won't, either.



- What would I say?

- No, exactly.

Roll over and make some coffee for Grandma. And some sandwiches!

Those idiots didn't give me anything to eat. They'll hear about that, too.



- They sure will!

- They sure will, yeah.



- I found Henrik's daughter.

- Congrats.



- How does it feel?

- Good. I did well not to give up.

Do you always do the right thing?

Yes, but it's often wrong, too, when I do the right thing.

How so?

Like with my parents, Jennifer, Pernille, Martin, Emil.

Have you ever tried not doing the right thing?

Disregarding what you know and going with your gut feeling?

I'm police.

Do you need to be that around the clock?

Yes. I do.

Try to find a situation where you can ignore what's right

-



- and do what feels right.

It's the same thing.

It doesn't need to be.

There are situations where you can let yourself be a little more selfish.

Like what, for example?

You're going to find out.

I'm here. I'm here.

Frank said you were dead.

I'd forgotten you.

It doesn't matter.

Is Mom dead?

Yeah.

Do you want to speak Danish? I heard that you can.

It doesn't matter.

You can talk whenever you want to.

Hi.

She's healthy physically. No diseases or infections. Everything seems fine.

Good.

But how she really is we don't know.

I'll talk to our psychologist and come back tomorrow.

Thank you. Because you never gave up.

How is she?

Physically okay. He didn't mistreat her.

She lived with him longer than with you.

Yeah, I know.

After so long, the victim forms a strong bond with the captor.

I know it will be hard.

Can we not talk about it right now?

Can I update you on the case?

No, you don't need to do that right now.



- I need to get back.

- But...

Is it okay between us?

Yeah. Everything's good between us.

Good.



- What did she say?

- Who, the doctor?

She said everything looks really good.



- And then I met Saga.

- Who is Saga?

Saga's my friend. My best friend.

Do you have friends?

In the city there. Someone you want to see?

I like Christoffer.

But mostly I dressed up and pretended I was someone else.

Hi.



- Thanks. That was really nice.

- Yeah.

It's not that late. We could stay out.

No, we can't.

I was just thinking a beer, or...

I don't want anyone to think you mean anything to me.

Wow. That's one of the worst rejections I've ever gotten.

It's a long story, but it's about our investigation.

There's someone taking revenge on people by k*lling the people closest to them.



- I'm one of those people.

- Okay.

That's why we can't drink any beer. Not until we've found the k*ller, anyway.

I'll take that as a promise.

Thanks for tonight.

Hi. Lillian Larsen Pettersson?



- Yeah, that's me.

- They're for you. Here you are.



- Enjoy.

- Thanks. Bye.

Lillian?



- Hans.

- What?

It's Hans.

Okay, everyone. Can I have your attention a moment?

As you know, Lillian had a tragedy yesterday. She'll be away a while.

Jonas Mandrup will be taking over, and I can't stress enough how important

-



- it is to solve this case now. Good luck.

Yeah, okay. You heard the boss. Let's go. What do we know about last night?

Forensics has it as the highest priority.

The head was Hans Pettersson's. There was no evidence. No fingerprints.



- Do we know who sent it?

- A man, they think.

I have a possible motive for Silas Tuksen. He had a brother, Jakob Tuksen.

He was in the criminal network KG.

He d*ed in the att*ck that Tommy told the Danish police about and they ignored.

Silas may not be getting revenge for Tommy, but those who let it happen.

Niels, William, Vibeke.

But Richard Dahlqvist? He wrote about it, but what did he do wrong?

I don't know. It's unclear.

Okay. Let's bring the gay guy in and send a photo of him to the courier.

Saga, where are you going?



- I'm going to work.

- Okay, but you need to do it here.

sh**ting's the only thing left on the list and we can't protect you if you go.

I can't work well here. This is important to me.

More important than living?

I don't know.

Okay, then vest on at all times. Full attention!



- And let us know where you are.

- Okay.

No, wait here. I'm coming with you. I'm coming.



- Silas isn't here.

- I thought he was here all the time.



- He's been away a while.

- How long?



- Three, four days.

- If he's not here, is he at home, or?

I just work here.

Are you sure about that?

Do you know if he's having sex with anyone?



- Like I said, I just work here.

- Does he have an office?

Yeah, but I'm not sure it's okay to show you.

Where is it?

Hi, Julie. Hi, Ida.

Now, listen. I've gone through your case

-



- and there's some holes you need to help me fill.

You've lived on the street since your mother d*ed.

More or less.

And you don't want to go back to your stepfather.

Do you want to tell me why?

He was too interested.

Listen. You're not going to be sent back to your stepfather.



- Are you sure?

- Yes.

Positive. Because he and your mother weren't married

-



- and he didn't adopt you. So that's completely ruled out.

But I'll find a really good foster family for you.

Can't we just live with you?

No, that's unfortunately not a possibility.

But I promise to find you something really good.



- Didn't you want to go to the movies?

- Yeah.

Can you find a film you want to see? But nothing too scary.

Bye for now.



- Did you bring Silas in?

- No.

The courier couldn't confirm if he brought in the basket.

It feels so strange. All that with Hans.

He hired me when I'd just moved to Malmo.

Do you know that?

No.

It was 15 years ago.

Saga, take care of yourself, okay?

So nothing happens to you.

I like you.

I like working with you.

Thanks.

I like working with you, too. You're effective and competent.



- Thanks.

- You're welcome.

The excavator in the cemetery. I know where it comes from.



- Silas Tuksen.

- We'll put out a warrant for him.

I want to know everything about him and that car, okay?

I thought you said we were going home.

This is home.

It's exactly like it was when you disappeared.

I just waited for you to come back.

I never gave up.

She was sick.

She had a stomachache.

We waited because...

Dad didn't like being at the hospital.

But she got worse.

And then...

Then she d*ed.



- I can't allow that.

- Yes, you can.

You're not here as a police officer.

He has nothing to do with your case at this point.

No one needs to know that.



- I know.

- Linn, it's 8 years.

He had them for 8 years. He probably k*lled my wife.



- And he let one of my children die.

- That's exactly why.

Do you have children?

I did.

I got Astrid back.

I got her back, but she's still his.

If I'm going to have a chance

-



- you need to help me get him out of my system.

Linn, she's at my house.

But she's not back.

I need to get her back completely. Understand?

What happened?



- What happened when?

- When you took my family.

I didn't take them. They followed me willingly.

Henrik!

What happened?

I'd heard about you. Both of you, rather. That it was bad at home.

So I suggested a trip.

Later that night, she wanted to go home

-



- but I thought she should stay so you could miss them a little.

But she refused to stay and...

It got heated.

She fell...badly.

I said to the girls that Alice went back to Copenhagen to talk to you.

That they could stay with me and you'd get them later.

Later, I said that both of you were in a plane crash.

It was never my plan for the girls to be mine.

They weren't, either.

They were never yours.

That's up for debate.

Anna.

I'd decided to bring her to the hospital

-



- when she...

It happened so fast.

I've wished every day since that I'd handled it differently.

I never hurt them. Never.

They had it good with me. Ask Astrid.

Tell me about them. Tell me what I missed.



- You missed 8 years.

- Yeah. But you're not going anywhere.

Saga Norén, Malmo Police. He's from Forensics in Lund.



- Yeah. What can I help you with?

- You got in a head tonight.



- This morning. We're here to pick it up.

- It's part of a m*rder investigation.

The person has been buried for almost two years.

I did the forensic examination when he d*ed.

There's a clear advantage for the same doctor to do both examinations.

Yeah, but I need to clear it with the lead investigator.

She sent this.

I have everything needed for transport in the car.

Yeah, okay.

You can still back out.



- Take it with you.

- Do you want that?



- No.

- Good.



- So Jonas has my job now?

- Yes, temporarily.

Thanks. I can't go into the kitchen.



- Do you really want to be here, then?

- Where else would I go?

I took the head from Forensics

-



- and put it back in the grave and closed it up.



- Wasn't it still evidence?

- Forensics was finished with it.

But I forged your signature on a document to get it out.

For police, it was wrong, but it felt right

-



- that the head should be with the body.

Thanks.

I have to go.

Goodbye.

Why do you think Tuksen is here?

He drove around in the open. Last time, he was on the way here

-



- and he never drove out.

Clear!

What the hell...

There.



- What is it?

- It's duck.

Duck breast.

We never got that at home.

It used to be your favorite dish.

It looks good.

Just eat. I'll see who it is.

Hi.

I wanted to bring you to the meeting.



- I'm not coming.

- Yes you are.

I could see it on you the last time I saw you.

No, no. I stopped.

I had a relapse, but I stopped again.

My daughter is here.



- Your daughter?

- Yeah. Astrid.



- That's great. Congrats.

- Thanks.



- That's fantastic, man.

- Yeah.

I'll get going, then.

I'll see you at some point, huh?



- Yeah.

- I'll come. Later.

I think you've had enough coffee and tea today.

Yeah, I have.



- This is much better.

- Thanks.

I checked Jonas' phones.

He called a prepaid number several times, and each time, case details were leaked.



- Did you call the number?

- Someone said hello...

...but as soon as I started to talk, the call dropped. It's been off since.



- That bastard.

- It's only circumstantial evidence.

He has your job. You know that, right?

Yeah.

But he won't have it much longer.

This is my friend. She's coming, too.

Hey. I'm Susanne. What are your names?



- Julie and Ida.

- Did you decide what we're seeing?



- I was allowed to decide.

- Hop in.

Before we're late.



- When were you at the movies last?

- A long time ago.



- With our mother.

- What did you see?

I can't remember. An animated movie?



- Can you remember?

- No, not really.

Sorry. That's my bag. You can throw it in the back.

Are you okay?

Yeah. Yeah.

I really don't feel good. Can we pull over?

- She gets car sick easily.

- Two seconds. I'm pulling over here.

- Is she okay?

- Yeah, we'll handle it.

- Are you ready?

- I thought we were going after the movie.

No. We're going now.

Hey! Stop!
