SqueaI!
SqueaI Iike a pig!
The poIice have many ways to find out if something's fishy.
Remember the house that burned down in Angby?
A house that burned to the ground.
They found someone in there. Dead, of course.
In that case we knew it was arson
because the person had been murdered.
How couId we know that?
Yes?
Because there wasn't any smoke in the Iungs.
That's correct.
How did you figure it out?
I read a Iot.
What kind of books, l wonder?
Newspapers and things Iike that.
And now we can taIk a IittIe about drugs.
What kinds are the most common...
Oskar!
What are you staring at? Huh?
You staring at me?
You better stop.
Good job, pig!
On the coast, just a few degrees beIow zero.
Eastern SveaIand-- cIear tonight...
intermittent snow fIurries...
temperatures ranging from 20-32 degrees...
Excuse me...?
What time is it?
I don't have a watch.
What's that?
It's caIIed HaIotan.
Ricky!
Get Iost!
Ricky?
Darned dog!
Ricky!
What are you Iooking at?
Huh?
Looking at me?
You better quit.
What's wrong with you?
Are you scared?
SqueaI then!
SqueaI!
What are you doing?
Nothing.
- What are you doing? - Nothing.
- Do you Iive here? - Yes...
I Iive here.
Okay. Where do you Iive?
Next to you.
How do you know where l live?
I can't be friends with you.
Just so you know.
Why?
That's just how it is.
Do you think I want to be friends with you?
I've toId you you have to heIp me!
Do I have to do it myseIf?
Say something!
Sorry.
So no one knows why this boy was murdered.
l understand that many of you are scared,
but the counseIor wiII be here aII day.
You can talk to her whenever you want.
Does anyone have any questions?
If we meet the murderer, can we murder him?
Conny, that was unnecessary.
Oskar!
You wiII go straight home after schooI!
And you're not to Ieave the yard until l come home.
But it was in VaIIingby.
So you think someone who murders children
can't take the subway?
Or waIk a kiIometer?
Yes, that wouId be best...
He's going to his father's next week...

Are you saying there aren't any Russians?
Of course there are Russians.
Never seen him before.

Mom?

Aren't you going to watch the rest?
No, it wasn't any good.
Stay in the yard, then, okay?

But, Iike, when were you born?
Your parents-- they have to know.
You never get any presents?

You can have this if you want.

"He sIipped in and out among the tree shadows.
He ran quickly and quietly and was carefuI to avoid the Iight.
Soon they returned to watch the gate,

Some kids in my cIass.
Where do you go to schooI, anyway?
Oskar, Iisten.
You have to fight back.
You've never hit them back...

Start hitting back now--

There are three of them.
Then you have to hit even harder!
Hit back harder than you dare.
Then they'II stop.
- But if they-- - Then I'II heIp you.
I can.
Come.
Move over.
Short, short...
S-s-s...
Ooh-hh...

How did you end up there?
I'm trapped.
...poIice have not been abIe to confirm the identity
of the man who was apprehended Iast night
on suspicion of murder and attempted murder
in Vallingby, in western StockhoIm.
Identification was difficuIt
because the man injured himseIf severely before his arrest.
In sports...
Just go in.
Yes?
Sorry.
I'm Iooking for my dad.
Is he here?
What's his name?
He's sick.
The poIice took him.
Where couId he be?
Then he's on LeveI 7.
But you can't just go in there.
- I can caII-- - No.
It's not necessary.
You poor thing.
Can I come in?
Wake up, Virginia.
- A kid! - What goddamn kid?
Why the heII wouId a kid want to kill Jocke?
I don't know.
Jocke was the kindest person I know.
I'II rip that damned kid to shreds.
Oskar!
Can I come in?
Don't Iook.
But say I can come in.
Come in.
CIose your eyes.
How did you get here?

"BuIIeri, buIIeri bock
How many fingers am I tapping you with?"
EIi...

With what?
I mean...

Oskar, I'm not a girI.
No?
Do l have a chance with you?
Can't we just be Iike this?
Yes.
Do you do something special then?
No.
Is everything Iike usuaI?
Yes.

Then we're together.
- ReaIIy? - Yes.
Good.

We're not aIIowed to be here, reaIIy.
This ceIIar is the best pIace. We can do whatever we want.
You know, today...
they tried to throw me into a hole in the ice...
Oskar--
But I had a stick,
and I hit Conny in the head
so he had to go to the hospitaI.
Oskar...?
Huh?
Hooray!
What were we going to do?
We're going to mix.
It doesn't hurt at aII.
All you have to do is prick your finger.
Eli?
EIi?
Go!
Get out of here!
Damn it, they had to saw through that ice.
What the hell are you worrying about?
Interrogation, and stuff.
Interrogation!
Maybe they'll put me in one of those rooms...
and shine a Iight on me--
- Jocke and I, we were this cIose-- - l'm sorry, l can't do it.
ln fact...
it is actuaIIy a duty to testify.
HeII.
I have nothing Ieft...
now that he's gone.
- But Lacke-- - Stop that shit!
Don't give me your goddamn "Lacke, Lacke."
You don't understand shit.
You're coId, fucking ice coId!

It went wrong, you see.
l had figured it out so it wouId be perfect.
Maybe there was something wrong with the set square,
or the ruIer, or...
Nothing to be scared of, kitty.
And it was more and more wrong.
And now I waIk around and it feeIs Iike--
AwfuI Iot of traffic this evening!

To earn money?
Um-hmm.
But you can have money from me.

Take it if you want.
You've stoIen it!
As soon as they're dead, right?

Different peopIe.
I want to go home now.
If I may.
Dad's stamp coIIection. His whole life.
One stamp...
80,000.
80 big ones!
Sometimes I tried to be interested. l said, "l won't tell."
He just said, "No, there are others. Thank you very much."
There isn't a prettier pIace.
Larks, potatoes--
Lacke, you have to heIp me!
Of course.

To get even.
Right?
Yes.
