Leo?

Hi, it's Leo. I'm probably busy.
Leave a message.

- Hey.
- It's Emma.

I'm just sending that file
to that guy at VG.

Did Leo come home
before you left yesterday?

- No.
- You didn't see him along the way?

- No. What's up?
- Leo didn't come home last night.

- He hasn't been home all night?
- No.

Did you call Asbjørn?

I don't exactly trust him when
it comes to missing children.

Asbjørn's on his way to Kathinka.

Hi, Kathinka.

We have found something.

I was just wondering if you could...

take a look at it.

Well...

"DB" is written
with a marker inside.

Well...

I'll have them start searching
the river where it was found.

So you think he was attacked
and then taken by the current?

We'll have it examined,
and we'll see if these tears...

were caused by a predator.

You mean wolf.
Is there a hunting permit yet?

No, but it should be
issued any minute.

That's not Daniel's boot.

He wouldn't have put
his initials in it.

But...

maybe he did it without
you knowing about it.

Leo is missing.

Hm?

He's been gone all night.

Right...

I was just thinking that you

have to be extra careful
walking home from school.

Especially if you take
the shortcut through the woods.

Yes...

But...

Leo's mom doesn't believe it.
And she's a scientist.

She says that Daniel is too big.

Sure...

But just in case. You never know.

You can never be
one hundred percent sure.

But really,
it's worse if it's not a wolf.

Because then somebody did it.

Your cell is fully charged
so I can reach you?

- Yup.
- Good.

Besides, Adrian will probably
pick me up at school.

So what's the deal with
him driving you around?

He's being nice.

Besides, it wasn't my decision
to move to the middle of nowhere.

Which means you're always a billion
miles from anywhere you need to go.

You know that he's
probably in love with you.

- Wow!
- Yes.

Okay.

Not every boy who's nice to you
really just want to sleep with you.

No, but just be careful
not to toy with his emotions.

Mom, just stop it.

It's Adrian.

- How old is he?
- Twenty-one.

- So just forget it.
- You're 16.

Can you...? Seriously!
We're friends!

End of discussion.

Just be careful.

There's just so much
going on these days...

Could you not? End of... No.

Where did you last see him?

At home. Or... at Marius' place.

And then?

I left and he wasn't there
when I came home in the evening.

When did you last see him?

We had breakfast.

Yesterday morning.

Where was he all day yesterday?
And who was he with?

I... There's been a lot
going on lately, so...

I got home a bit late.

I just thought he'd gone to bed.

But you're not sure? He could've
been gone since yesterday morning?

Mm-hm. Uh...

Did he bring his phone?

- Yes.
- Tuva.

Contact NKOM and FSI
so we can trace it.

Could he have gone home to Oslo?

How?

Red Cross and
the Home Guard are still here.

I have to go look for him.

Should I go to Marius' place
in case he comes back?

Yes, would you do that?

Of course.

We'll get his cell data
in a few hours.

- We'll wait for the permit, right?
- Yes, we will.

- We will?
- Mm-hm.

But just you wait.

You'll see
that the wolf took him too.

I told Daniel that his fascination
with wolves was unhealthy.

Why didn't you ask Emma
to look at the boot?

The poor thing was so upset.

Let's just hope we find Leo
safe and sound.

Is it strange that Kathinka was so
sure Daniel didn't mark his boot?

It is.

This is hard for her.

It'll be interesting to see
what SNO says.

There can't possibly be
any doubt any more.

We'll just have to find Daniel.

So that the family
will have a grave to visit.

Excuse me, have you seen this boy?

No, I haven't seen him.

Are you Ret*rded?

What? Mom told me
to get rid of them.

Get rid of them, not sh**t them
to splinters all over the lawn.

No... I shouldn't...

f*ck, Eberhardt will be here in
an hour, and you go total hillbilly.

Clean it up!

- Hello!
- I will.

Did you ask Adrian to get rid
of those garden gnomes?

- Yes.
- He shot them with an air g*n.

f*cking unbelievable.

Nice of you to take the day off.

This could count as work.

Helping create jobs in the town.

- Asbjørn called today.
- Okay.

You won't believe it.

Marius' grandson also disappeared.

- Are you kidding?
- No.

Nobody wants to invest in a town
where children keep disappearing.

- You need to fix this, Mom.
- What do you want me to do?

Introduce a curfew?

I picked it up.
Where should I put it?

Try the garbage can.

Yeah...

Try to get it all in.

No, Adrian...

Yes. There.

Can I borrow the car later?

Yes. Will you be gone long?

- A couple of hours maybe.
- Sure. I won't be needing it.

It's all fuelled up,
so just go for a drive.

Thanks. You're the best, Mom.

It's like having a five-year-old.

A five-year-old
with a driving license.

Excuse me,
could I ask you something?

Have you seen Leo?
He looks like this.

- No.
- Have you seen him?

Excuse me,
have you seen this boy?

Excuse me, have you seen him?
His name is Leo.

- Sorry.
- Have you seen him? His name is Leo.

No.

- Hello?
- Did you hear that they found

Daniel's torn boot in the river?

We just have to prepare ourselves
for this being a wolf.

I checked the GPS.

They've been
extremely close to town.

- Look at it yourself.
- That's just not right.

How are you guys doing?

When are you coming home?
How is Leo doing?

I'm thinking about you.

I'll call you back later.

Hey. How are things going
with your new boyfriend?

Take good care of him so he doesn't
disappear too. That would be sad.

Heard his mom is a wolf scientist.
Dangerous occupation.

Can't you just shut your mouth?

That's cool. I'll shut my mouth
completely. Bye, babe!

I'm probably busy.
Leave a message.

Hello. I just wanted to see
how you're doing.

But...

Just call me when you get this.

What are you doing, Knut Ove?

Nothing.

I just thought I saw
some wolf droppings here.

That's extremely risky, you know.

What if a dog, or worse, a child,
gets caught in that?

Are you going to cry?

Is it your stepson that's missing?

Any news?

What's that?

A program that shows
the wolves' movements.

I just have to check
if they're close to town right now.

Are they?

It looks like the she-wolf
has moved eastward.

So, they're further away?

At least the she-wolf.
She's the one we're tracking.

The others, I don't know.

But that's a good sign.

Can you see where it was
when Daniel disappeared?

- I already did.
- Oh?

It's correct that the wolf has been
closer to town than usual.

But... that's not what happened.

But what about his jacket and boot?

I don't understand.

This is a horrible thing
to say, but...

sometimes I almost wish
that the wolf did take him.

So that I would know.

I have to show you something.

What was that?

His cell is turned off but it was
last connected to this cell tower.

The closest cell towers
are there and there.

That gives us a search area of about
four to five square kilometres.

Then he's in the woods somewhere.
He's not gone back home to Oslo.

Damn it, we have to put
together a search party again.

- Isn't this a lot in a short time?
- Hm?

I just feel like it must
be connected somehow.

It's human nature to try
to find a connection.

Try to make a system of things.

But the truth is there's a lot of
evil and misery in the world.

It's Asbjørn.

Okay. He posted it on his profile?

When was this?

We know where he is any minute now.

We'll call you as soon as
we know more.

What the hell is wrong
with people around here?

Was it Stian Gutu?

Yes, some f*cking idiot called Stian
and two of his buddies.

Stop it!

You posted that picture.

Someone confirmed
that it's your bag on the picture.

- Who said that?
- Don't you worry about that.

You know where the kid is,
and you're going to tell us!

Well, okay.

Okay.

You stay here until you tell us.

With six hunting cabins,
each sleeps six people,

and about three months
of deer hunting season.

We're looking at 10,000 per day
for lodging and hunting rights.

Food and beverages are not included,

so we're talking about
20 million in sales revenue.

And that's with estimating occupancy
of 60%, which is very low.

Hunting licences sell out fast here.

If you also include
rabbit and wood grouse,

you could expand the season.

And in addition to the rights
we have as land owners,

we could sell hunting licenses for
grouse hunting at Ringebufjellet.

Take a small cut
and use the lodge as a base.

The access to game
might become even better now.

Based on the recent events.

I'm guessing this will be a death
sentence for the wolves in the area.

Well...

It's has a very...

positive impact, I suppose.
In spite of...

this tragic event.

Well, it's not good publicity
for Østbygda.

But... We can hope things
settle down eventually.

You know...

time heals all wounds.

This is a robust community,
so I think that...

I think everything will return to
normal. I'm quite sure of that.

You're in politics, Anne.
You're well versed in these things.

When I was young,

neo-nazis and anti-racists
clashed in Brumunddal.

And I think that the name Brumunddal
remains tainted for a lot of people.

Well, that's something
entirely different.

Neo-Nazism and being against
predators isn't exactly the same.

Many people feel that predators
like wolves enriches our nature.

And they believe that Norway's
fauna will be lacking without it.

But they are probably
not trying to farm sheep.

And people who have dogs
and kids running around...

Maybe you'd want to look at the
architectural drawings I had made?

He's been standing out there
all night.

What if something happens to him?

What if he freezes to death?

- We have to find him.
- I don't know where he is.

I didn't do it.

If you tell us, we'll make sure
you get a lesser punishment.

- You know that?
- I'm too young to be prosecuted.

What have you done with my son?
Where did you take him?

- Where is he?
- Calm down.

Take it easy. You can't do that.

If something happened to Leo, I'll
cut your head off with a dull knife!

Where is he?

You can't do that!

I understand that this is difficult,
but you can't threaten kids.

We'll take care of this.

- Okay?
- Take care of it? Are you kidding?

You're not taking care of sh*t!
Daniel, Dad...

You're just floundering...

You're f*cking amateurs!

We used to farm sheep.
But it was hard to make a profit.

It wasn't worthwhile.

I think this looks promising.

- Yes.
- I'll consult the board,

but it will be my recommendation
that we invest in this project.

That's great. Very good to hear.

Let's hope things
calm down a bit around here.

- I'm sure they will.
- Okay.

- Talk to you later.
- Sure. Drive safely.

The number you dialled is not...

Are you okay?

Yes.

What are you doing
after junior high?

- What's that got to do with this?
- I'm just curious.

- Carpentry.
- You want to be a carpenter?

I want to build log houses.

What's so great about that?

I've always liked construction sets.

We'll see if you'll
get a job easily.

If anyone wants to hire you.

It's one thing to tie
someone to a tree...

It's not good.

But what if
something happens to him?

What do you think
people will think of you then?

Being too young to be prosecuted
doesn't stop the rumours.

Quite the opposite.

I went to school with this boy
in Gjøvik, where I'm from.

He was a normal boy.

He probably could've been
successful in a lot of things.

But then something happened
that changed everything.

There was this woman
in his neighbourhood.

She was different.
There were a lot of nasty rumours.

Those rumours that people spread
about a certain type of women.

The kind of woman
that people looked down on.

And laughed at.

And the boy laughed at her
with his friends.

Called her names and stuff.

And one day, he finds out
that the woman...

is in a relationship
with his father.

The woman had a dog.

A big, nice Golden Retriever.

One day, the dog was found
in the woods.

Someone had beaten it
to death with rock.

That boy was also
too young to be prosecuted.

But that incident was...

so serious that he was put in
the Child Welfare Service's custody.

Spent his teenage years
at an institution...

in a different town.

Lost contact with
all his friends and family.

I saw him
when I went home for Christmas.

I don't know what makes you
so full of mischief, Stian.

Leo!

Leo!

Leo!

Leo!

- How are you doing? Are you hurt?
- Are you there?

I'm thirsty.

Do we have any water?

They're playing a game of dare.

They... Well, they...

They're messing around in the woods,
trying to bait the wolf.

Dare each other to stay out the
longest at night. Stuff like that.

Jesus. That makes no sense.

The wolf is shy.
It will just withdraw.

Yeah, but they put out ground beef.

Hm?

That could make the wolf dangerous.
It gets partly domesticated.

It stops fearing us.

I'm sorry I didn't say
anything about Grandpa.

I just couldn't do it.

Yeah.

It...

must have been...

horrible.

I've thought about it.

I think perhaps it's best
if we go home to Oslo now.

Seems like everyone's decided
that the wolf took Daniel anyway.

I don't know what else I can do.

What do you think?

Hm?

Let's just go home.

- Kids can be horrible to each other.
- Yeah.

The question is, was Stian involved
in Daniel's disappearance?

No...

We just have to face the fact
that it really was the wolf.

Have you become a wolf idealist now?

- I didn't see that coming.
- No...

Regardless, nothing raises
the temperature like wolves.

It's always been that way.

- Bye.
- Bye.

f*cking pervert.

What the f*ck?

Oh, sh*t.
