Commissioner Martin Beck and his eccentric partner Gunvald Larsson investigate murders in Stockholm, Sweden.

09x03 - Inferno

Post by bunniefuu »

So you hired Josef Eriksson to work for the Homicide Squad?

Correct

Just for the record, ysw're aware ®f the incident on 14 January...

...where Jesef Eriksson sought out special aigent Kent Larsson...

...who(then sustained serious injuries in an escalator fall?

Eriksson claims it was all an accident...

...Larsson insists he was pushed

Everything I know is in my report

And you stand by that report?

-One second
-Where are you going?

-What... Josef!
-Kent!

Hey. Johanna Thoren...

Ring a bell? No?

Yes, I stand by that report

You were at the scene?



Josef!

You saw what happened?

Indeed

saw everything

Kent Larsson slipped and fell

If you've fabricated a report in order to protect a colleague...

If you've fabricated a report in ©rdier to protect a colleague...

...you'd be guilty
®f serious misconduct

That's grounds for dismissal

Are we done?

-What if something goes wrong?
-It won't, trust me

-This is stupid
-Use this phone only

-And only answer to this number
-Mum...

Listen to me.
Once I sell it, we can leave

No one can touch us. He'll never hurt us again

It will be over soon. Hey, look at me

Take the phone. Take it!

-You know where to hide?
-But what if...

I'll deal with him

OK? Let's go

Stefan Spjut, aged 43

Shot in the head at close range while filling up his car

-So a drive-by sh**ting?
-Possibly

-How many shots?
-Several fired

Only one hit him

But one is all it takes

-Any witnesses?
-At least two

He was taking his kids to preschool

-Did they see anything?
-No. They were using their iPads

Jesus Christ...

What's wrong with this thing?

Hiya. Cheers

-Where is everyone?
-m*rder case at a petrol station

-Why didn't you call me?
-Come with me

-Morning
Take a seat

Who died?

Here's the deal...

...Internal Affairs are reopening their investigation...

...into the incident involving that Security Service agent

-What was his name?
-Kent Larsson

You're kidding me?

You're suspended until further notice

And you've been summoned for your first interview

But they've already carried out a full investigation into me...

...and that b*stard SAPO-Kent

was found innocent!

They must have something on you

If you gave false information...

..in relation to this incident, you need to...

Or there could be serious consequences

Now go home, Josef

OK, so "Service Station Slaying" is what the press are calling it

OK, so "Service Station Slaying is what the press are calling it

-What've we got?
-At least four shots fired

One hit Stefan Spjut in the head

So he was 43, a widower, clean record

Two kids, aged ten and six

Worked as a teacher

-Any eye witnesses?
-I spoke to 12 different people

Some saw shots fired from a car...

...but then it was out of the CCTV's range

Patrik Lundberg, however, a truck driver on his lunch break...

...is adamant
the sh**ter was on foot...

...and left the petrol station shortly before

A dark-haired woman in her 30s and a teenage girl



He overheard the pair "making plans"...

...and said the woman talked about "taking care" of some guy

What do we know about her?
-Not much

Paid cash, so there's no card to trace

Good-looking, the truck driver said

Or she would be it not for a scar covering "half her bloody face"

-A scar?
-I bet he's a real looker himself

OK, we need to locate this woman and find out why she was there

What about Josef?

I know you must have questions about Josef's suspension...

...but right now I can't say much

Surely you can tell us what's going on?

We'll await the inquiry's findings

-When will he be back?
-We don't know yet

Get in, Josef

I'm taking you out to lunch

Forget it

I have a feeling you're going to need my help

I've never liked you, Josef

-Feeling's mutual, Kias
-However... I've always respected you

This internal inquiry...

.Officially, it's Internal Affairs who've launched the investigation

But in reality, this is on SAPO's table



Well, how shall I put it...

The job comes with certain perks and quirks

Such as somefimes having the power...

...to offer someone a helping hand

-But not for free, right?
-Nothing's free in life, Josef

La Surete de I'Etat, the Belgian intelligence service...

...need help locating an object

-You owe them a favour
-Yes, exactly

International intelligence is all about favours

Scratching each other's backs

Tell me... Why not use one of your own super agents?

Let's just say the matter requires...

...previous knowledge and connections in your former circles

-No way, I'm not...
-I'm not asking you to go undercover

But you know your way around

-Know what, just leave the bottle
-Sure

Looks like we II need it

I've seen
the new supporting evidence...

...Internal Affairs are leaning on

It's not looking good for you, Josef

You'll be charged

Aggravated as*ault

Maybe even attempted m*rder, if you're unlucky

Unless someone, hypothetically speaking of course...

...makes this new evidence go away

Understand what I'm saying?

A deciding factor in our initial inquiry...

...was a superior officer, Alexandra Beijer...

...©©rroborating your version of events

However, new evidence has emerged which contradicts you both

You understand what this means?

This inquiry is n® l®n§©r about you al®n©

You're taking Beijer down with you

Yes, Stefan Spjut. All transactions dating back three years

OK, forget about the scar

A woman in her 30s, shoulder-length, dark hair...

...13-year-old daughte

-Thanks. Bye
-How are you getting on?

I checked Spjut's finances. Nothing

-Jenny's trying to ID that woman -OK, thanks anyway. Bye

No

So we still don't-krTow who she is, or if she's even involved?

-Not yet, no
-A father-of-two was gunned down

Get a move on, will you!

Josef. Quelle surprise!

Want a drink?

No, just tell me what I'm looking for

Go on, you came all this way, you may as well come in

I'm cooking boeuf

If I could only ever have one more glass of whisky in life...

...I think I'd choose this brand

So what is it?

The Belgians suspect...

...a Botticelli painting missing for 30 years...

...is currently in Stockholm)

And not just any old rubbish...

...but orre of the world's most famous stolen masterpieces

Inspired by Dante's Inferno

The ninth circle of Hell

The very last one, and most horrific

Traitors, frozen into the ice

Judas and Brutus...

...chewed alive by Satan himself

Get the picture? Cheers

And you reckon I'm the man for the job, because...

A lot points to this painting falling into the hands of organised crime

Now it appears it's been st®len, or ended up in the wrong hands

The Belgians think it will leave Sweden in the next 24-3S hears

The Belgians think it will leave Sweden in the next 24-36 hours

Not enough time for our Security Service agents...

...to ev-e'e think about where to look for it

You, on the other hand...

...can handle this smoothly

And discretely

-Any idea who's stashing it?
-Some druggie

It's all in the file

"Julia Gradnik"

Find her, and chanees are good you'll find the painting, too

Then call y®ur hansiller on the number that's circled

You can phone me directly on the bottom number

It's a secure line

Ansi you guarantee they'll drop the case against me?

Yes, sure

Poof! Vanished

Or even better, classified

And what if I fail?

PAYSLIP, CLUB LA VIDA

So you can't rule out that the b*llet that k*lled Spjut...

...was fired from a passing car?

see. Thank you

-Working late?
-Just trying to stay on top of things

Tell me, Steinar...

What's in the future for you? If it was up to you

But...it's not

Who knows...

Looks like there'll be an opening in the squad soon

Is that so?

I'm fairly certain Internal Affairs will dismiss Josef

In hindsight, we probably shouldn't have hired him

And in hindsight...

...perhaps you should've made me lead investigator?

Yes

Perhaps

-I'd like a word with Julia
-Julia who?

Julia Gradnik

-Where can I find her?
-When will you people stop asking?

-Where can I find her?
^When will you people stop asking?

-Who's been asking for her?
-Listen, I don't know sh*t

SOON! LOVE, KARRO

A Coke, please

No free tables, eh?

Do you know where she is?

Easy, OK?

I'm not here to hurt you or Julia

But I need to find her.
Some people are looking for her...

...and I'm pretty sure y®u'll want me to find her first

Who's she running from? Leonie's dad?

Peter?

He's been locked up in a psych ward for the last ten years

OK, so who did she steal the painting from?

I don't know anything about a f*cking painting

All I know is that you'll never find her

She's gone

And she took Leonie with her

Without her passport?

One large sushi, please

Hello? Steinar Hovland, Homicide

Listen, there was a traffic accident in Flemingsberg last Monday

A Nissan Qashqai

That's right.
An elderly man was struck by a car

Did he say if the driver was female?

No. Two males? All right

Did he get a look at the plates?

Half? What...

Just give me what you've got



Right, so Steinar went through local police incident reports...

...and found a hit-and-run accident just minutes after the m*rder...

few miles from the-scene

An elderly male driver was rear-ended at a stop-sign...

...by two young men driving a...

Nissan Qashqai

-Have we got the reg numbers
-Half of it

But I eventually found that the car's registered to a company...

...called SB Trading and Transport

-I'm heading over to their office now
-Good

Yes, definitely. Listen, I need to...

Give Lena a call, she'll deal with it

OK? Perfect. Talk soon

Hello. My apologies

-Sebastian Bauer, CEO
-Steinar Hovland

What's this about?, Reckless driving by some of ouq guys?

Yes, a hit-and-run accident close to a crime scene

-I need details on all your drivers
-Certainly

I don't have the drivers' list here

Let me check with...

Lena, have you got a minute?

-This is...
-Steinar Hovland, Homicide

Pardon?

You're investigating a m*rder?

Yes, a man was shot in front of his two children

Christ...

Lena, make sure he gets whatever he needs

Sure, leave it to me

Hello

No, no one signed for that particular 'car on Monday morning

But we've got almost 150 drivers on our books...

...and Mondays can be a bit chaotic in the garage

Anything else, other than log-books and a staff list?

Do you have any female employees with a scar across one cheek?

No... No, we don't

-Thanks. Send that over, will you?
-Of course

Nice turn. Super job

You're doing great

Guys, I'll be right back. You keep skating

-Hiya. What are you doing here?
-I have some questions. Sit

-Not now. I'm with my kids
-Sit down!

-Where can I get a fake passport?
-What the hell did you do?

-Just answer me
-How the hell should I know?

-Then fjind out
-Now?

-Forget it, I have the kids
-Bring them

No @ay

No way

Adina and...

-Leo
-Right

Great that you get to see them grew up

-Is that a threat?
-No

Just a reminder. You'd be in prison if it wasn't for me

See your kids for two hours ev^ry other weekend

Man, you're really desperate

You didn't hear this from me. Get it?

No... Of course not

TR Print on Bergsvagen Road

Say "Hakan Sukur" at the door



Hakan Sukur

I'll take your photo, then you fill out a form with the name...

-Where are those forms, brother?
-On the table!

ID number, signature... You know. Let's do the photo first

This way. Follow me

Chin up

Sukur

And your signature. Good

Oh, and I'm collecting my wife and daughter's passports

-Are they ready?
-Are you ordering or collecting?

-Are they ready? you ordering or collecting?

-Since I'm here anyway
-Yours will be ready on Tuesday, man

Thanks

Look, I get that you can't hand over my wife's passport

Just tell me if it's ready, and I'll let her know

How about this, if they're ready, you take the money

Tell your wife both passports are ready

Can I get you anything else?

No, thanks, I'm good

-Your bill, maybe?
-No

Hang on, I'll take the bill now!

Who the hell nicked my ciggies?

Give 'em back!

Lousy b*stards!

Oil Give me my ciggies back!

Where'd they go to?

Driver, open the door! Let me off!

Come on! Let me off!

Well?

Come on

Your thermostat must be broken, it's like a sauna in there!

I'm terribly sorry, the heating's been playing up all day

Some rooms are freezing, others...

I'll report the issue right away

-You're in room...
-207

-Thanks for letting us know
-Sure

-Yes?
-I've located Julia Gradnik

So why the f*ck are you calling me?

your case handler know

Sure, when I have proof that my little problem is taken care of

It's Friday night. These things take time

You'll have to take my word for it

Your choice, I guess.
I could end up losing her

Send me proof, and I'll call my handler and secure the painting

Give me five minutes

The address is 8 Hollandargatan, room 207

I'm going in to secure the painting

I'm here to fix the thermostat!

May I come in?

-Calm the f*ck down!
-Let me go!

Put the knife down! Put it down!

Hello there, Martin! Listen...

I wanted to ask you something

Look at this

-Anyone shred your boxers lately?
-No...

No? I bet it's that old bag on the second floor!

And a T-shirt of mine met its demise only last week

I'm telling you, it's like a w*r zone down there

-In the...laundry room?
-You can't trust anyone these days!

I'll strangle her with the mangling sheet!





-What the f*ck's going on? - What?

-Your plan was to k*ll her all along
-Josef, what are you on about?

-What happened?
-Julia Gradnik's dead!

You told me to find her, and now she's been f*cking m*rder*d!

Where are you?

Where are you, Josef?

I'll come and pick you up

Female victim, in her 30s

An "Anna Simovic" booked the room, but the name's probably fake

Stabbed to death.
The m*rder weapon is missing

-This happened during the night?
-Yes

-Who reported it?
-An anonymous caller

-Any surveillance cameras?
-We're workin^on i’t

There's something yo^need to see

Thanks

What's up, man?

You all right?

You looking to score tonight? Speed? Coke?

-You deaf, or what?
-Give me the cash, man

Hello

Hello

One Step's coming through on the inside...

...and Split Vision's found a gap...

Go on

Bollocks!

MUM, PICK UP!!!

What's going on?
Why don't you answer my calls?

Is this... Is this Leonie?

Is Mum there?

Put Mum on the phone

-Listen...
-Put Mum on!

Listen, Leonie.
You need to get to safety, OK?

Hide somewhere

-Hello?
-Where's my mum?

Who is your mum hiding from?

Hello?

-What's going on?
-Close the door behind you

Take a seat

Ayda, show them the CCTV footage

Right. Around 9:45 on the night of the m*rder, Julia Gradnik...

..which is the victim's real name, enters her hotel room

And 16 minutes later... a man knocks on her door

What the hell...

What the f*ck...

f*cking hell

-Time of death?
-Forensics don't know yet

But no one else enters or leaves the hotel room...

...until just after 2am

Josef has switched his phone off and he's not in his flat

So our main priority now is to find him

And as of now, I'm taking over this investigation

Surely this is my responsibility as lead investigator?

You're too close, Alex.
And we need you on the ground

So, what do we know about the victim?

Julia Gradnik, 36 years old

Divorced, lives in Flemingsberg with her 13-year-old daughter, Leonie

-Was her daughter notified?
-No

-And the father?
-In a psychiatric clinic

Are we positive Julia was the woman spotted at the petrol station?

I'll have the witnesses ID her

One thing is crucial...

Forget everything you think you know about Josef

He goes into a room, attacks a woman, she gets k*lled...

...and he then leaves the room wearing a bandage on his hand

The question is what is it we don't know

What is he actually capable of?

Not that many typical stab wounds, as you can see

see quite a few
—-YesT-sure----

-I see quite a few
-Yes, sure

But the majority are defensive wounds, only one was fatal

Her carotid artery was severed

-So her k*ller was a pro?
-By the looks of it, yes

-When did she die?
-Around midnight or shortly after

-Any sexual violence?
-None

-Was she awake during the attack?
-All evidence points to it

-Was she awake during, the attack?
-All evidence feints to it

Sh© was fully dr©®s©«l and pr© to ably saw h©r attacker @©iwng

She was fully dressed and probably saw her attacker coming

She put up a good fight, considering one arm was restrained

-Sorry? What?
-She was handcuffed

-You didn't know?
-No

The forensics team didn't point it out at the crime scene?

These ligature marks clearly indicate...

...that she was handcuffed when she died...

...and for several hours post-mortem

Her arm was likely tied to the bed frame...

...during the stabbing

That's why she only had defensive injuries on one arm

As well as on her legs... and soles of her feet

-She kicked her attacker?
-Yes

Without speculating too much, I think we can surmise...

...she curled up by the headboard

-State crime lab
-Take it

That scar on her face...

I'd say it's about a month old

Clumsy patch-up job

-She didn't have an easy life
-No, that's for sure

The truck driver identified Julia and Leonie...

...as the pair from the petrol station

Julia was likely the intended target

Maybe she was meeting someone

And Stefan Spjut was just in the wrong place at the wrong time

-Did you pull up her phone records?
-Yes. Her last call went to us

Say that again?

Well, to our switchboard.
We don't know who she spoke to

She could have called Josef, to arrange a meeting

But... I mean, we work with him. Surely we'd smell a rat?

He could be a sociopath, narcissist or psychopath for all we know

-Can we please stick to the facts?
-Isn't it obvious?

-What exactly?
-That Josef's corrupt

-Ever since his infiltrator days
-We don't know that

He suffers quite severely with hallucinations and delusions

-You've told him about Julia?
-Yes, but whether he understands...

-Has he had any day releases lately?
-No, no, no

Peter? You have a visitor

He's a police officer. Here

Here you go

Hi. My name's Josef

-I'm here about your ex-wife, Julia
-She's innocent

-B-b-believe me
-Exactly

I just need to know if anyone would want to hurt her?

I'm a bit worried about her and Leonie

No one touches Leonie, I'll k*ll them!

For f*ck's sake!

-Shut up!
-All right, all right...

Just take it easy

Sit back down. I want to help you

Calm down

OK? All right?

I'm here to help

But I need to know who's trying to hurt them

How do I know you're not working for him?

What?

-Who?
Give me a break

You know, you know...

OK, just tell me who he is

Peter...
Or I can't help Julia and Leonie

And why should I trust you?

Why come here and ask you, if I was working for him?

-Hello
-Hovland. For Peter Bdrjesson

Peter, tell me his name!

More visitors?
Your colleague's with him now

Tell me, dammit!

-Colleague?
-Yes, a Josef something

The Red...

...Red Knight

-He's in there now?
-Yes, down the hall

That way, to your right

-He grabbed my key card!
-Josef!

Josef!

Josef!

Move

Police!

Get out of the way!

Stop! Stop!

Josef! Stop! Stop, or I'll sh**t!

swear I'll do it!

Hands above your head!

Put your hands up!

Get down on your knees!

Get down!



Due to recent events, we're issuing a nationwide alert...

...for a 39-year-old male believed to be in the Stockholm area

The man is a suspect in the m*rder of Julia Gradnik

The suspect is reportedly a serving policeman. Is that correct?

Yes, it is correct that he's a former member of the force

Hello?

Josef, is that you?

What the hell did you do?

Listen to me, Alex. I didn't do it

You need to come in right now

-You have to...
-Listen to me. Listen

Freden promised to drop this damn case against me...

...in exchange
for finding Julia Gradnik...

..and some painting she stole

-I went to the bathroom and...
-She was handcuffed to the bed!

SAPO never came, I had to take a piss!

What else could I do?

So I went to the loo, and then..

I don't know what happened after that. I swear to God, Alex

-/ didn't do it
-So why didn't they k*ll you?

-/ don't know...
-Well?

All I know, is that whoever Julia swiped that painting from...

...is behind this whole thing

The painting was in the room, and when I woke up, it was gone

Please, Josef, I'm begging you, just come in to the station

Let's work this out before it gets worse

'm screwed! Get it?

You have to help me find out who Julia was afraid of

All right

OK

OK?

Thanks

Let's roll

-You coming?
-No, I...

Fhia©

-Are you the manager?
-Yes, I own the place

I need your help

Go to his room, say you're the cleaner and unlock the door

-But...we don't have a cleaner
-Then make something up. Anything

Like what?

Tell him there's a water leak. Whatever. Then unlock the door

Oh, so I won't wait for him to open? I'll just go in?

No. You unlock the door

Keep talking, and open the door. Understood?

-So, I talk and lock and...
-Understood?

Call him on three. One, two, three...

Hang on, hang on

-Don't I need a bulletproof vest?
-No

Talk!

Police

Clear!

Bathroom's clear

f*ck!

You there, what are you doing?

Hey! Stop!

Stop!

Stop

Hi. Just this, thanks

Cash or card?

Mind if I ask how long you keep your CCTV footage for?

-I don't know. But I can find out
-Thank you

Mira, do you have a minute?

-Can I smoke in here?
-No, only in the movies, I'm afraid

But I'll get you some coffee

We like our coffee here, although the quality's not great

/ guess we're used to it

Karolina, we'd like to talk to you about Julia Gradnik

Your pals at La Vida...

They all say you were Julia's only friend there

Yet you won't answer the door to police officers...

...or answer your phone

Sorry, but... Is that so strange?

One of your guys k*lled her, right?

Josef?

He came to see me, too

Said he needed to find her

And the crazy thing is...

...that I...felt relieved

I figured that meant her plan was working out

What plan?

Leonie and her were going to disappear

All she needed was a bit of cash, then they'd head to Croatia

Julia had some relatives there who'd offered them a house to rent

Near the coast, right across from Italy

Where's Leonie?

Don't know

Who was Julia afraid of?

-Was it Josef?
-What does it matter now?

-It matters a great deal
-She's dead

Karolina...

think you're scared

And for a damn good reason

But I need a name in order to help you out

Are you charging me with something? Or can I go now?

Well?

-/ can't take this f*cking sh*t
-All right, all right

-Can I leave?
-Sure. No problem

'll be in touch. OK?

-Hello
-Hi

Mind if I come in?

-I was just going to bed
-I think Leonie's here

Karolina, please

She's in danger

If anything happens to her, it'll be on your hands

Let me help you both

There's milk and sugar if you want
-I'm fine

I know... you're trying to protect Leonie...

..but if you're hiding something...

...you're only protecting Julia's K*llers

Julia...

...she met this guy at the club

You know, the type with a big house, wife and kids...

He swore he'd leave his wife for her

Even if that was all lies...

...he would've probably just dumped her when he got bored if...

If she hadn't...

What?

If she hadn't found out what he was up to

How he really made his millions

If she'd only kept her mouth shut and just...

...got the hell out, but instead she...

...threatened him, saying she'd expose everything

That's when he sent those f*cking scumbags after her

They turned up in the middle of the night

Sliced her face with a...

You must've seen her scar

Julia knew she and Leonie had to disappear

And she..

She knew where he kept those valuable paintings

She figured that if she sold one, she'd have enough cash to get away

She knew too much

So they k*lled her

He's some kind of drug lord

Tell me who he is, and I promise we'll put him away

...to keep you and Leonie safe

But in return, you have to tell me his name

BIG WIN FOR BAUER
Market gains f®r th© Th© R©sl Knight

THE RED KNIGHT SEBASTIAN BAUER

Alex, I've got something

Same here. Take a seat

CCTV footage from about 11:30pm on the night of the m*rder

This window over here belongs to Julia Gradnik's room

As you can see, the light's on

Holy sh*t...

So we now know for certain that Josef wasn't alone with Julia

Why the hell was he there?

We believe he was working for SAPO

At least he thought he was

I've also spoken to the hotel's security manager...

...who sent me the CCTV video from the top floor

These two men checked into the room above Julia's...

...27 minutes
after Josef entered her room

They used a fake name and paid in cash

The hotel had logged the phone number used to make the reservation

Sebastian Bauer

Close

The phone's registered to a subsidiary...

...of SB Trading and Transport, owned by Bauer

-How did you know?
-Julia stole the painting from Bauer

And according to Karolina, SB Trading is a front for a cartel...

...dealing in drugs and trafficking

Julia threatened to blow it wide open

Jenny, get a unit to pick up Bauer and those two guys

Right away

The question now is...

Where's Josef?

Hello there, Kias

Sit down

What the hell is this?

Sit down

What do you think you're doing?

You'll never get away with this

So what?

-You're f*cked, Josef
-Yes

And that's your biggest problem right now

What does it matter?

One m*rder or two...

-You're not a k*ller
-No

Not yet

I don't know any more than you

-Let's play a game -Josef, please...

Best of all is
that the rules are dead simple...

Christ...

Tell the truth...and you win

But...if you lie...

...you lose

-We have all night
-Josef...

She wasn't supposed to...

I didn't know...

I was just helping a contact locate the painting

The painting! The pai...

You mean that one?

You got to keep it as a thank you

Wow..

Why don't we put it up? Eh?

Josef, I know you think...

...the world's black or white, good or evil

But you have to f*cking understand...

Tell me about Julia Gradnik

There's nothing to tell. I don't know her

But it seems she robbed the wrong people

A painting?

Julia Gradnik is dead

-Because of you, Kias
-Guess what most people die from?

Their own choices

In my line of work...

Our line of work, Josef

...you need to make alliances. Right?

One must be willing to compromise

Why do you reckon Stockholm, unlike other major cities...

...haven't seen any gangland feuds over the last decade?

Why do you think that is?



umb luck?

Are we just on a good run?

Sure, we have teens in the suburbs sh**ting each other over gold watches

But overall, in terms of organised crime...

...the last 10 years have been quiet...

...and that's the result of a deliberate strategy

As long as drugs are ill*gal, the ill*gal drug trade will thrive

Nothing strange about that

And instead of gangs fighting for control...

...I've chosen to create stability

So long as the top dogs stay on the streets...

...no power void will ever emerge for rival factions to fight over

You've colluded with the cartels

We share some common ground

And an interest in not destabilising the market

So Bauer walks free

Bauer? Christ, Josef!

Bauer... Come on

Bauer is a small-time dealer

That's what they want you to think. sh*t...

If people only knew how many lives I've saved with this strategy!

The money I've saved them in taxes. The public ought to thank me!

Fine, I'll say it

Say what?

"Thanks"

...the money I've saved them in taxes

That'll never hold up in court

No, but I reckon the press will love it

You'll become one of those pariahs people spit at in the street

-Hi. Alex Beijer, extension 2224
-OK...

Tell her it's Josef Eriksson

Josef!

Show me your hands

-Hands up!
-Get her on the phone

-Sure, calm down
-Hands up!

-You can see my hands -Hands up, Josef. You know the drill

-You can see my hands
-Put your hands up, come on!

-Get down on your knees
-No way

-On your knees!
-Never!

-Get down!
-No! I won't do it!

Get down on the ground!

Put your weapons down -But he...

Do it now!

Bauer?

Come on!

Bauer is a small-time dealer.
That's what they want you to think

sh*t, if people only knew...

...how many lives I've saved with this strategy

The money I've saved them in taxes. The public ought to thank me!

-Fine, I'll say it -Say what?

"Thanks"

I'll send a unit to pick Freden up

Freden? We're arresting Kias Freden?

Yes

His confession will be enough to have him dismissed...

..and hopefully even charged

The painting will tie Bauer to Julia's m*rder

Although, he'll most likely get off on conspiracy to m*rder

But if Julia was right about Bauer...

...I'm sure we'll be able to put him out of business for good
