THE ATTORNEY
- Are you sure you're up for this? - Yes.
Last year MarkInvest, under their CEO Ragnar Laudal, -
- carried out primary rock blastings near Överĺker at Tornedalen valley.
This caused the phenoxyl hydrate CA126 to leak into the water basin.
You were convicted of this at the Environment Court, were you not?
Yes.
Were you aware at the time that CA126 was harmful to humans?
There are strict rules for the handling of CA126.
- And these we have adhered to. - Because it can be harmful.
If handled incorrectly, yes. Like so many modern-day products.
You don't regard a leak into a water basin as incorrect handling?
Medical reports confirm that my client's illness is caused by CA126.
- He got it through the ground water. - We contest any connection ...
Still, it has harmed Sven Nilsson.
It's attacked his central nervous system leaving him partly paralyzed.
His prognosis is grim.
Nilsson's life is ruined ...
- We protest against that wording ... - What words would you use, then?
The trial against MarkInvest will continue tomorrow.
- Here comes their CEO now ... - No comment.
And the attorney, mr. Hansson. Any guess as to the outcome?
I won't speculate, but it would be an insult to our sense of justice -
- if a multinational corporation can dodge their responsibility.
- You'd better let me ... - Why?
Because you're you, and I'm not.
The incident took place in the basement of La Blanca.
Detective Sergeant Lena Klingström had been threatened by three men.
- Was she threatened with weapons? - One of them was about to rape her.
- Did they threaten her with weapons? - Not as far as I could see.
- So no weapons until you came? - I don't know since I wasn't there.
Had you drawn your weapon when you came? Why?
- Because I am a policeman. - You shot two of the men.
- Did anyone else open fire? - None of the men opened fire?
- I beat them to it. - Gunvald ..!
Didn't you provoke the situation by barging in with your weapon drawn?
You'll have to ask them that.
You have a long record of violations. Various threats, abuse, harassment.
- How come? - Some people don't like cops.
- Why do you get reported so often? - I'm efficient.
The police corps is trying to change the public attitude -
- to officers on external duty. We need people with the right attitude.
Officers who aren't easily provoked.
- Who are mentally stable. - Are you?
Or are you provoked by the slightest ...
- He'll do fine. - If he controls his temper.
- He will. He knows what's at stake. - What if they suspend him?
- We'll just have to replace him. - Gunvald?
- How do you replace Gunvald? - Like I would you. Put out an ad.
Stop it! We don't even know if he'll ...
Coffee break?
- How did it go? - I'm suspended from external duty.
- Until they come to a decision. - What does that mean?
He's going to help me fix coffee and put paper in the copier.
It'll be a blast, Gunvald.
Gunvald ...
I know what you did. If you hadn't, I wouldn't be here now.
If they give you any crap about it, they're in the wrong. Not you.
You can't imagine how grateful I am.
Okay ... Want me to fix you some coffee?
Hello.
I'm going to make my closing argument brief.
We've seen how MarkInvest are trying to rob a handicapped man -
- of his right to compensation for his suffering.
- Yes. - There's an express letter for you.
- From FedEx? - Yes.
- Any guess as to the outcome? - I won't speculate.
But a multinational corporation mustn't dodge their responsibility.
- How large is your claim? - We're talking several million.
- I think we'll beat them. - Oh, do you?
- He can't prove any connection ... - Yes, I just got a text message.
One of his international associates have found a document in Chile.
- For Hansson? - Exactly.
They bribed someone to talk. How will that go down at the trial?
- Did you go to see the Vasa? - Yes. It's big.
And to think it just sank. Well, there you are ...
- Your first time in Stockholm? - Yes.
- It went well today in court, huh? - Absolutely.
I've received a document proving Sven's case isn't the first.
- When did you get that? - Some hours ago. They'll be stunned.
We were so lucky to get you, Patrik. You're a regular pit bull.
- Cheers. - Thank you for believing in us.
Cheers.
Hi there, Martin. You're packed like a mule. Having a party?
- No. - Am I invited?
- Oh, and why not? - There's no party. I shop once a ...
- What's cooking? Sauteed pickles? - Broiled sausage.
Perfect with a bottle of vodka.
Let's splash some on the sausage. Make ourselves an Absolut Sausage.
You think you live in a clean environment, far away from factories.
- And then they pollute the water. - No environment is safe anymore.
Hi, Ulrika. This is Sven and Dagny Nilsson.
Sven is my client. Ulrika Lindén ...
- Are you alone? - I just came in for a nightcap.
- Do join us. - No, I don't want to intrude.
You aren't. Patrik could do with some young company.
Our train leaves in ... 40 minutes! My, we have to rush.
Haven't you got anything to drink?
No.
BUSINESS CARDS
Yes ... okay.
Well, maybe it's at his apartment.
We've applied for a lift, but the entire building is listed.
It's okay.
Nice place.
- A little champagne? - Why not?
Are you off work tomorrow?
No, tomorrow I'm pulling off a coup droit .
Meaning?
A fatal blow.
I'll go get the bubbly.
- Where's the bathroom? - In the back.
- Know what's so good about vodka? - No.
- You don't get drunk. - You don't?
I once drank an entire bottle on the balcony.
You were out of town. I sat out there crying.
Trying to remember how my brother died.
- Is he dead? - No, that's what I realized.
And I never would have, if I'd been drunk. See?
- No. - No? Okay. Let's have a refill.
Cheers.
- How do you feel about partitions? - Partitions?
I'm thinking about investing in a partition wall.
- Where? - That got you curious, huh?
I've got plans. A man needs to have plans.
Ideas, thoughts, visions. Haven't you got any plans?
- About partitions? - Or floor tiles, or what have you.
You could invest in ...
A stony path leading to the can. See? No, even better.
Line the path with empty bottles and tea lights.
- Haven't you got any imagination? - No.
Give me your name and address.
Help! He's going to kill me!
Beck.
The attorney?
- Can I ask her ... - No.
The call came in at 11.59 p.m. They found a dead man in the bed.
The woman in the bathroom was in a state of shock.
Presumably the man is Patrik Hansson.
The woman, one Ulrika Lindén, couldn't give much of an statement.
She said a man broke in and attacked them with a knife.
She managed to escape into the bathroom and call 911.
When the police came, the assailant had left and the front door was open.
- Forced entry? - No.
- Martin! - I'm sick and tired of reporters.
They're just doing their job, like us. He was a celebrity.
- Was he married? Where's his wife? - She lives in southern Stockholm.
I always paint at dawn when the light is untainted.
- How was he killed? - Stabbed.
- We're separated, but you know that. - Yes. But not divorced?
No, we've filed the divorce papers but it's dragging out.
- When did you see him last? - Many years ago.
We talked on the phone last weekend. Was he alone when he was killed?
Could you please stop painting?
- Should I react differently? - I just prefer talking face to face.
We just found your husband brutally murdered and that affects us.
Professionally.
It doesn't affect me much. It's worse for Magnus, I suppose.
- You have a child? - He's away at school in Switzerland.
- A sensitive young man. - Is he in Switzerland at the moment?
- How old is he? - 24.
I had him quite young, the poor thing.
I suppose I'll have to tell him, won't I?
The other neighbor is one Adam Niklas Bergström, 49.
- Currently employed at Atlas Copco. - Is that relevant?
- No. - But he's at Atlas Copco. Important.
Don't mind him, he's restless. Get me some paper clips, will you?
Hilarious, isn't she? Well, you look cheerful.
- You been making yourselves useful? - Oh yes.
Ulrika Lindén is still in the hospital. Asleep on sedatives.
She's physically unharmed. They'll call when she's fit to talk.
No sign of forced entry. Forensics will be in touch later.
The press has been all over us. TV, newspapers ...
They're going to give us hell.
Hansson had the MarkInvest case, right? Think there's a connection?
How the hell should I know?
Gunvald, sorry. I haven't slept ...
- Can I ..? - Sure.
A neighbor, Peter Holm, 27, came home by cab just after midnight -
- and saw a stranger running out of the building.
He was wearing dark clothes and a dark knitted cap, about 35.
- Holm reacted to him. - Why?
"Something told me there'd been a break-in," he said.
He gave a good description, -
- so I had this made based on Holm's description.
- He ran from the place at midnight? - Yes, around midnight.
Put it out. Good work, Oskar.
Check up on Hansson's last hours alive.
Check with the other departments if he had any known enemies.
Check out his acquaintances and get me a thorough profile of the wife.
And her son, Magnus. He lives in Switzerland. Find him.
Okay, that'll keep me busy till lunch.
- And you? - I'll check out his client list.
- Good. - And you?
I'll make plans ... for tomorrow.
Oljelund is ready.
Dead upon discovery. Multiple stab wounds to the back and neck.
I might as well get a tape recorder.
I say the same thing year after year. I might as well play a recording.
- How's the stomach? - Intact.
Not his, yours. You complained ...
The murder weapon is a small bladed knife, presumably a butterfly.
He died at the scene and had alcohol in his blood. Happy?
Martin.
My stomach.
- What if it really was? - His stomach?
You never know with these coroners.
- Christ, is this exhausting or what? - That's public service for you.
- How did get you along in Malmö? - Fine.
- But you didn't want to stay there? - No.
- Why not? - Coffee?
- Yes, but ... - Latte? Cappucino?
- Why ..? - Macchiato?
Plain.
Listen. "The Attorneys Association spokesperson is shocked."
"She calls him a superb attorney with a fantastic court presence ..."
- What? - Fantastic court presence. Bullshit.
- Didn't you like Hansson? - All attorneys are scumbags.
They help keep law and order.
Those hustlers get the scum out quicker than we can put them away.
- Well, then we haven't done our job. - You're naive, Bodil.
- Did you have fun at Oljelund's? - External duty.
Always a laugh. Come on.
Any news about him?
A witness saw a man answering to his description here at the ...
- We know where it is. Go on. - He disappeared that way.
A cab driver thinks he picked him up here at 0.20 a.m.
Where did he take him? Lidingö? Isn't that where MarkInvest is?
- What address did he go to? - Just downtown. He paid cash.
That man is very interesting. Any news about the wife?
I'm checking up on what delayed the divorce.
- What about the son, Magnus? - He lives outside Geneve.
But he's skiing in Verbier and hard to get in touch with.
- Try. And get a picture of him. - You think he ..?
He's the victim's son and part of the investigation. MarkInvest?
They can't afford to lose the case.
They'll suffer internationally and have to pay the plaintiff a bundle.
MarkInvest stands to win a great deal if the trial is called off.
- It can still go on. - The client may die before it ends.
And the case might be dropped. Hansson's client?
- I've asked him to come in. - I've traced Hansson's last hours.
After the trial he went to his office on ...
- We know. - He worked from 3.30 to 7.30 p.m.
Then he went to Restaurant Mantra on ... well.
There he had dinner with his client Sven Nilsson and his wife Dagny.
Then he went home.
And was killed in the middle of his midnight snack.
Gunvald and Bodil, check out possible threats, talk to the restaurant ...
Just a moment.
Homicide. Thank you.
- Ulrika Lindén is on her way up. - Come with me.
We met at a release party for some sunglasses some time ago -
- and went out a couple of times.
- Were you in a relationship? - I wouldn't go as far as that.
We liked each other but we weren't dating.
- It was my first time at his place. - So you didn't know him that well?
I don't know.
Then it's hard for you to say if he was under some kind of strain?
Yes ...
He was happy. The trial was going well.
He offered me ... We met at a restaurant called the Mantra.
- When did you leave? - Around 11. He invited me home.
- How did you get there? - We walked.
- Think anyone was following you? - No ...
What happened when you reached his place?
We ...
He offered me some champagne and we ...
- I know it's hard, but please ... - We wound up in the bedroom.
We undressed and got into bed when someone came in.
- Was the front door locked? - I have no idea.
I don't think so. Maybe it didn't shut properly.
Or the assailant had access to the key.
Can you describe the assailant?
He was ...
He had a hood over his face and was wearing dark clothes.
He attacked Patrik with a knife. I screamed and ran.
I locked myself in the bathroom and heard Patrik screaming.
Then it went quiet.
And then suddenly ...
He went after you.
He started attacking the door with the knife, banging and pulling.
- I got out my cell. - You had your cell in the bathroom?
- I left my purse in there before ... - And you called the police.
- When did he leave? - I don't know.
It went quiet and I just stayed on the phone until the police came.
You keep saying "he". Are you sure it was a man?
Yes, I'm pretty sure.
It all happened so fast.
Hello, it's Gunvald.
Simone, my niece, keeps going on and on about Vilhelm.
Apparently they had a great time.
- Didn't you notice? - Sure.
I have to look after her today during my lunch break.
I was wondering ... if the two of you have any plans.
- We're on our way to Skĺnegläntan. - Where's that at?
- The park. - Okay, I'll see you there. Bye.
You're going to talk to Gunvald Larsson. Right this way.
He was such a nice man.
He'd been a great help to us.
He came to see us in Överĺkar.
He was so dedicated and really tried to help us with this awful ...
And then he gets murdered.
- You had dinner at the Mantra. - Yes.
- How long did you stay? - We had to catch a train at 10.30.
We're staying with relatives here. I suppose we left just before 10.
Hansson apparently met a woman at the Mantra. Did you see ..?
Yes, I think her name was Ulrika.
They seemed to know each other and we were just leaving, so ...
Did anyone else approach Hansson while you were there?
- No. - Nothing out of the ordinary?
- That character. - Character?
Someone was standing on the other side of the street when we left.
He was looking at the restaurant and when he saw me looking, -
- he turned and left.
- Left? Where to? - I don't know. We were in a hurry.
So I didn't look. But he acted strange.
- Could you identify him? - You ask a lot of questions.
- I'm afraid I have to. - No.
He was wearing a dark cap of some sorts.
It might have been a knitted one.
Did he look like this?
Yes, maybe.
- Where's Martin? - Hansson's office.
- Going out? But you're on desk duty. - You're not my watchdog, okay?
Tell Oberg I'm harassing shoplifters.
Touchy today, are we?
- What does it mean? - I'm suspended from external duty.
So what do you call this?
- This happens to you a lot, huh? - What?
- Trouble. - Hell, no. Did Martin tell you that?
- But isn't it true? - No, it isn't.
Did I offend you?
No, but I'm sick and tired of people judging me without knowing me.
- Well, it isn't easy. - What?
Getting to know you. You're not the most talkative guy I've ever met.
No?
Whenever it gets personal, you change the subject -
- or ... you leave. Are you leaving now?
- Do you know "Mr. Bean"? - Yeah, that British ...
- Dumb, stupid guy. Hilarious. - Do I remind you of him?
Maybe just a little.
The dumb, the stupid or the hilarious part?
Take your pick.
Saturday ... I'm going to the movies. Want to come?
- The movies? - Yeah, got something better to do?
- I'll have to check with work ... - I said "better".
Can't you take a few hours off without Dad going through the roof?
Or are you on desk duty in your spare time, as well?
- No, but ... Vilhelm? - Ever heard of babysitters?
- Okay. - Yeah?
- Had he been threatened in any way? - No.
- You'd know if that was the case? - We worked closely together, so yes.
I'm going to make my closing argument brief.
We've seen how MarkInvest are trying to rob a handicapped man -
- of his rightful compensation for his suffering.
- Yes. - There's an express letter for you.
- From FedEx? - Yes.
- Is that it? - Who knows? Maybe he's practising.
It's a disgrace how MarkInvest try to dodge their responsibility -
- by denying the connection between the leak and my client's suffering.
A connection they were aware of.
Yesterday afternoon I received this document proving -
- that MarkInvest knew what could happen to my client.
- Yes, he got a letter. - At what time?
- When he came back from the trial. - We haven't found it.
- Do you know where it is? - Do you know what it was about?
- Who was it from? - I don't know.
- Could he have left it here? - I don't know. I left when it came.
- I had a mammography appointment. - Did he take home it with him?
Maybe. He sometimes took ...
- What's wrong? - When I came in this morning ...
The doormat always slides in when you open the door.
We always put it back in place. But this morning it wasn't in place.
It's very strange.
Because Hansson would have put it back?
So someone else must have been here without pushing back the mat?
What if MarkInvest knew he was going to use that document?
If they knew, they'd know it would be a bombshell.
Hansson made that clear on the tape. Maybe they wanted to prevent that.
- So they committed a break-in? - Or murder. They went to the office.
Then they went home and found him in bed with a woman, and it exploded.
- Maybe ... It's been 40 hours. - What?
Without sleep. Maybe we'll think better in the morning.
I thought I was thinking just fine.
- Who's leaning on you? - I've just received a few calls.
- And they want us to deny ... - MarkInvest's involvement in this.
Rumor has it Hansson's death is connected to the trial ...
I thought we didn't give a damn about rumors in this department.
This murderer could be anyone, including the CEO of MarkInvest.
If that gives them the runs, it's their problem, not ours.
- Mine. - Fix it. That's your job, isn't it?
Excuse me?
I'm sorry. A document incriminating MarkInvest is missing -
- possibly as a result of a break-in at Hansson's office. So I can't ...
Gunvald, come here.
Why aren't you here, when you're on desk duty?
- I couldn't reach you yesterday. - Did the office rat squeal?
How do you stand it?
The Nilssons saw a man outside the Mantra at around 10 p.m.
A man resembling our photofit guy.
Ulrika Lindén and Hansson were still at the restaurant.
Nilsson said the man acted strange.
- In what way? - Damned if I know. Strange.
If we assume he followed Hansson home and left again at midnight, -
- he must have gone there for a purpose, possibly murder.
- On whose behalf? - MarkInvest's.
Or Helen Hansson's. She was suing him for "unfair division of assets".
What the hell does that mean?
Hansson used his legal know-how to leave her with zero after a divorce.
But if her husband died, she and their son would inherit everything.
- You think she hired an assassin? - It's been done before.
- Yes. Check her phone records. - Have you got in touch with the son?
- And Hansson's computer? - I'll get to work on it.
- Were you afraid of losing the case? - No.
We sympathize with Sven Nilsson, but the trial against us was ludicrous.
You don't think your leak could cause Nilsson's illness?
But Hansson did, and he could prove it. Didn't you know?
- Know what? - His document proved you a liar.
You deal in fake documents? I thought you were investigating a murder.
We are, and you're involved whether you like it or not.
- Do you know this man? - No.
- He's not connected to the company? - No.
Come back in. The police are on their way.
Stop! Police!
Stop!
Send backup now!
Stop!
Police! Stop!
Oskar!
I'm gonna blow his head off! Get lost!
I'm gonna shoot! Get out!
Oskar ...
- Any news from the hospital? - He's just got a slight concussion.
- Was it the same guy? - The neighbor says maybe.
But he pulled a hood over his face. Damn, this could've gone very wrong.
- And Hansson's apartment? - He's torn the place apart.
- To find that document? - It that was what he was after.
- The question is, did he find it? - Exactly.
Most of Hansson's calls seem okay.
He made a lot of calls to a cell belonging to his son in Switzerland.
Did the calls go through? Great, now we've got a missing cell, too!
But here are the calls his wife made on the day of the murder.
- Interesting, huh? - Very.
Get her down here first thing in the morning.
You behaved like an amateur today. That won't do with guys like that.
I've had my share of assholes through the years.
They look big and strong with their biceps and their tattoos.
- But know what their weakness is? - No.
They think everyone's afraid of them. Get it?
I think so.
Only two things work in those situations. Violence ...
- And? - Violence.
Is that how you end up on desk duty?
- Why did you want a divorce? - lrreconcilable differences.
- Was it a mutual decision? - Yes.
But you weren't aware of his "unfair division of assets" then?
- No. - So you sued him for your share.
But now you don't need to. You're going to inherit a fortune.
- Have you got keys to his apartment? - Yes.
- Where are they? - On my keychain.
- May we see them? - Do you suspect me?
- Should we? - I don't think so.
You said you'd been at home on the night of the murder.
- Yes. - Why are you lying?
- I never lie. - Everybody does.
At 11.35 on the night of the murder you ordered a cab.
It drove you to Nybroplan. Why are you lying?
Right. Where did you go after Nybroplan?
- Interesting, huh? - Very.
- Where was she that night? - First she lied.
Then she claimed she'd been at an S/M club and was ashamed to tell.
- Was that a lie too? - I don't know. She's pretty kinky.
- Check with the club. And the son? - The Swiss are looking for him.
Look, he was seen outside the Mantra and leaving Hansson's building.
- He came back and attacked Oskar. - If it was the same guy.
Maybe he was after what he missed the first time, when Ulrika freaked.
- That would rule out Helen Hansson. - But not MarkInvest.
Come here.
Hansson's picture file. It took me a while to hack in. Look.
- Hansson and his associates. - A bunch of crooks.
- Who is that? - A Yugoslav, "The Gangster King".
The guy on the left is a convicted cop killer.
- Repulsive. - All attorneys consort with scum.
Hansson has been a good attorney to Sven Nilsson and other victims.
- So it's okay to befriend criminals? - Stop it!
Hansson lived on the edge like many other attorneys. But is it relevant?
Apart from MarkInvest and the wife, -
- maybe we should look for someone with completely different motives.
Check his case records -
- to find any connections to the underworld and what have you.
I'll be back in an hour ... and a half.
You should do this more often. Buy me lunch.
- I guess you have a hidden agenda. - I just wanted to see my dad.
- Much obliged. - And I need a babysitter.
I see. I guess I should feel sorry for myself now.
- But I won't. - Babysit?
Feel sorry for myself. I don't mind being used during lunch.
Let the whole world use me. I don't mind.
- Didn't you sleep well last night? - Because I'm in a generous mood?
You're being a bit impertinent, dear. That means rude.
I'd love to babysit my beloved grandson.
I just wish I had the time to go to the movies.
- Why don't you have the time? - Because I have to babysit.
This case I recall. Beatrice Lindqvist, middleaged, -
- went dancing and went home with a guy.
He then proceeded to rape and abuse her the next 24 hours.
- Hansson got the scumbag off. - Yeah, fantastic court presence.
- How are you doing? - Fine.
- You should be at home. - I want to help.
We filled our macho quota already. He's right there.
Go home and nurse your head.
- Hi. - Hello there. Go home.
Hansson called Hall Prison.
I've crosschecked the inmates with Hansson's client list.
- He defended one Viggo Andersson. - I'll call Martin.
You hid it in the air duct.
I know you have cells hidden all over the prison, and I don't give a shit.
But this specific one is connected to Patrik Hansson.
The murdered attorney, you know?
We haven't yet solved the murder, so this cell is of great interest to us.
And so is the owner. You.
Well, I was here when he died, so what's with the cell phone?
Ever heard of instigation to murder?
Asking someone to carry out a murder of your behalf, maybe using a cell.
Instigation could give you two to four years ... extra.
How did you get that cell?
He gave it to me ... Patrik.
Did he smuggle in a cell for you? Why?
To show he cared. He knew I felt bad because I'm innocent.
Innocent? Didn't you commit a smash and grab robbery?
No, that was my buddy.
I was in the car but had no idea what he was up to.
He drove through the jeweller's window, whacked the owner, -
- and fled with the goods, and you sat there completely in the dark?
Exactly.
- Rotten luck. - You could say that.
- What happened to your buddy? - He fled the country.
And his name is ..?
Shut up!
- Hansson gave it to him? - Yes, check all calls, in and out.
And find out the name of his buddy.
Klingström.
When?
We've been to your apartment.
We think he was looking for something. Any idea what?
He said something about Patrik hiding something for him.
Did he mention a document?
No ... But Patrik never asked me to hide anything.
Here he is.
- His buddy? - Magnus Werton, robbery suspect.
- Got a picture? - Yes.
That's him!
That's him. You never checked?
Damn it! I shouldn't miss something like that. It's misconduct.
- Margareta's going to go ... - Screw that. Send it to Martin.
- That's him. - Sure?
- Did he attack you and Patrik, too? - I don't know.
Magnus Werton, your thieving buddy.
He broke into the home of a woman connected to Patrik Hansson.
He searched her apartment and attacked her, so he's up the creek.
We think he broke into Hansson's apartment, too, and searched it.
The goods from the jeweller robbery have never been recovered.
There were a lot of precious stones. Is that what he's looking for?
Is it?
- Are you sure we'll find something? - No.
Why would Hansson hide the goods?
Because he consorts with criminals.
- Consorts? - He hung out with the scum.
They're ringing in the weekend.
The church bells. I grew up nearby.
36 strokes ring in the weekend. I know.
Hey, there's something in here.
Does Magnus Werton match the photofit?
So we had the potential perpetrator in our records, but didn't check?
- Who didn't check it? - Me.
I'm used to external service and haven't got the routines down yet.
So what's your hypothesis?
Werton and Viggo rob a jeweller's.
Werton flees, Viggo is convicted, but hides the goods beforehand.
Hansson represents him and somehow offers to hide ...
- Hansson? - He moved in many circles.
- Werton goes looking for the goods. - He wants his piece of the action.
We think he followed Hansson and Ulrika from the restaurant.
- He broke in and forced Hansson ... - Why would he do that?
He knew Hansson was with a woman. He followed them home.
- Isn't that crazy? - All crooks are crazy.
Maybe he was already there when Hansson and Lindén came home.
Yes. Anyway, they fight and he kills Hansson.
But he runs when Ulrika calls the police.
Some days later he breaks in again in vain, -
- so he thinks maybe Ulrika has the goods and breaks into her place.
Is that all you've got? It won't stand up in court, Martin.
Any second-rate prosecutor could take it apart.
We can rule out Helen and the son. Helen Hansson was at the S/M club.
- And the son is in Switzerland. - They could have hired someone.
No, we're overlooking something.
Take a break for a couple of hours, then we'll go over the whole thing.
- Why not now? - I have to babysit.
- You? - Yes. lnger's going to the movies.
- Let's go eat lunch. - No, I'm going to ... do something.
- Pool. - Pool?
Come on.
See you later, Oskar.
- I'm glad it was you. - Who got the job?
So you could pool hustle me? You should be nice to the new kid.
Okay, I'll give you a break.
What was it like in Malmö?
Great ... It really was.
Lots of new friends, a change of scenery and all that.
So why did you come back here?
Did something happen or ..?
Yes.
- I was involved in a ... - You don't have to.
No. I won't.
- I hope you won't tell anyone. - Of course not. Does Martin know?
No. He doesn't know anything.
What it is?
- The bells. - What?
The bells!
What bells?
- Who's babysitting? - Dad.
- Vilhelm? - Yes, he thinks it's a privilege.
- And where are we going? - The movies.
But I said I wanted us to ..
- Now what? - Christ! Get Dad to send a car.
I'll call you.
Hi. I've got an emergency.
- Can Vilhelm stay here for an hour? - Sure.
What else are neighbors for? Come on in.
- Perfect. I just rented a movie. - Great. Thanks.
"The Chainsaw Massacre", I think it's called.
- I'm pulling your leg, Martin! - Okay, bye.
"Pulp Fiction"!
- Take it easy. - You're on desk duty, goddammit!
- Should I have called Oskar? - Yes ... no. Why was lnger there?
- I bumped into her at the cinema. - Were you going to the movies, too?
- No, we just bumped into each other! - Why are you so upset?
- Can I question him now? Alone. - Sure.
Help!
- Did you hear that? - Yes.
Nothing out of the ordinary. No connection to Hansson's cases.
Parents divorced, the mother's name is Beatrice Lindqvist.
Beatrice Lindqvist? When was she born?
- 63. - Maybe it's her.
- But you know Viggo Andersson? - No.
He's serving time for a robbery the two of you committed.
- He committed it. - You weren't there?
Why did you break into Ulrika Lindén's apartment?
- Why did you beat her up? - Are you always so full of shit?
- How does a shit like you get by? - He freelances.
- As? - A male model.
Great, because I want you to try this on.
This was worn by the guy who beat up Lindén in her apartment.
Get up. Is the little model shy? Let's just try it on.
- Let's see. - There aren't any holes ...
Christ, I'm sorry. You walked straight into the wall.
Get it off. It's dangerous. My God, what a blow.
Take this, you're bleeding.
- Christ! - Yeah, the walls are really hard.
Creepy.
Ulrika Lindén has identified you. She saw your face.
We're you looking for the stolen goods?
- I can't hear you. - Yes.
Come again?
- Yes. - Thank you.
Did you break into Hansson's apartment before that? Here.
- We'd better ... - Yes! Goddammit!
- I didn't quite hear you. - Yes.
How did you know the goods were at Hansson's place?
I called Viggo. He'd deposited the goods at Hansson's.
Deposited? My, my.
Hansson would get a share when Viggo got out and collected the shit.
- Charming. Did you kill Hansson? - Who?
Hansson and Lindén. Did you follow them home and kill him?
No.
Christ, I didn't kill Hansson! It wasn't me.
- He's confessed to the break-ins. - The fucker headbutted me.
He walked straight into the wall. Pathetic.
- What about the murder? - He denies it. You have a go.
Martin ...
I want you to listen to something.
Another nail in your coffin.
- If lnternal Affairs hear about ... - Why should they?
- They read our reports. - Then keep me out of your reports.
Want me to commit misconduct to protect a cop accused of misconduct?
- Who do you think I am? - I'll write the report.
- And? - You never need to see it.
What will you write?
I'll brief you, leaving out any unnecessary details.
I see.
Thank you.
Help! He's going to kill me!
Help! Help me!
Help!
- Good. Hi, how are you? - So-so.
We've found the man who left Hansson's building.
It was the same guy who attacked you.
In order to tie him to the murder, we have to re-enact the crime.
Are you up for that?
Good.
I jumped out on that side ...
And he ...
And then you ran into the bathroom.
I locked the door and then he came after me.
Let's go inside.
What happened in here?
I found my purse and called ... No, I got out my cell.
He started banging on the door. That's when I called.
- Where were you? - I sat over by the wall.
Come on.
- That is a problem. - What?
- The church bells. Hear them? - Sure. What about them?
On the tape of your emergency call you can hear the bells.
They're striking twelve.
But just now, we couldn't hear them through the closed bathroom door.
And that was where you called from. How do you explain that?
I don't know. Maybe the sound carries better at night.
No, we've already checked.
- I don't think you shut the door. - But he ...
He came after me. I locked the door and he banged on it.
- Isn't that on the tape? - Oh yes. The banging's on the tape.
But we think it was you.
- What really happened, Ulrika? - I've already told you.
And how is Beatrice?
Lindqvist. Your mother.
- She's dead. - How did she die?
Patrik killed her.
My parents were divorced and my Mom would go out dancing.
One night she went with a guy back to his place.
He held her prisoner and raped her all night and all day.
- We know the case. - The case?
Then you know what happened at the trial, too?
Hansson got the guy acquitted.
He smeared my mom in front of everybody.
He claimed she was dressed provocatively.
"Like a cheap whore," he said. He called her promiscuous.
Mom had to listen to that bastard humiliate her.
He said she went home with him voluntarily.
She stayed there of her own accord and only had herself to blame.
- And Mom ... - The jury went with Hansson.
Mom never got over it.
She went in and out of the psychiatric ward. I struggled to ...
... to help her get better so we could move on.
Finally she couldn't stand it anymore.
She said goodbye on my ... answering machine.
She was ...
I traced the rapist, but he had died of a heart attack.
He got off cheap.
What made you seek out Hansson?
We happened to be invited to the same party.
I saw him waltzing round acting the celebrity.
The girls were all over him.
Then he hit on me and I just wanted to puke.
But I kept it together.
That night I thought I'd take him to see Mom's grave some day.
To make him see what he'd done.
But ... I changed my mind.
And decided to kill him?
I don't regret a thing. Patrik Hansson was a bastard.
He just did his job. An attorney has to get his clients off the hook.
- A pillar of society, right, Bodil? - He acted like a ...
- Whose is that? - Hansson's. It's the document.
- Where did you find it? - At Werton's. He must have taken it.
Gunvald. I just got a mail from lnternal Affairs.
- I'm sorry. - Damn!
You got off again.
Come along for a moment.
Violence ... and violence.
- Right, Gunvald? - I have to go and ...
If you're going to buy a cake, get one with marzipan roses.
COURT HOUSE
- What will happen now? - The trial will continue.
- And? - And we're going to win.
Thanks to mr. Hansson, we can prove MarkInvest has been lying all along.
A similar incident seven years ago in Chile claimed five victims.
- But they just hushed it up. - So they've been lying?
Yes. We're going to win this.
- For Ville. - Ville?
- The kid. I got it today. - For Vilhelm?
- Hell no, for myself. - Yourself? A cartoon?
Computer animated, gramps. It's a scream.
- Do you want it? - Sure.
How about a little quid pro quo? Are you alone?
- No. - Is it that broad from downstairs?
- Oh, come on! - Well, then ...
Won't you come in?
