Two Black Russians.
[phone rings]
Yeah.
Well, he's also my son. I'll be seeing him too.
You're crazy, woman. I didn't touch my son.
Thor, don't let this ruin our night. Hey, come on.
I'm sorry, babe! That fucking woman.
I shouldn't have picked up.
That was Halla Olafsdottir speaking. The Weather Service is predicting
winds from the East, 18-28 meters per second.
The most extreme winds will be in the South.
They will not be as severe in the northern and eastern parts.
Some sleet and rain in the Southeast, but otherwise mainly dry weather.
The predicted temperature will be between zero and five degrees Celsius.
Hi.
-Do you have a minute to speak with me? -What? Yeah.
-Inside. It's pretty cold. -Sure.
-Were you at the gym? -The pool.
Must be lots of old people there... at this time of day, I bet.
Any space for you in there, huh?
[phone rings]
Kata, your phone.
Kata.
-Kata, you in there? -What, you miss me?
-No, well, actually this is about Kari. -What's the problem?
Well, I'm just worried he might be drinking.
Why do you think that?
I had some buddies of mine over for dinner.
Yeah.
So, I'm going to pour them cognac...
and I find the bottle is half gone. Somebody finished half of it.
Okay, that's odd.
You sure you didn't drink it yourself?
Nah, it wasn't like that.
And he's out at night with some friends I haven't met yet, just... meandering about.
He won't read books.
He's 16, making new friends in his first year.
You remember...
Hey, don't change the subject.
This is not about me, it's about Kari.
-Ugh, you're really such a square. -Square? I'm not square.
You might not have noticed it, but I can see how much he's changed.
-Sorry, what are you implying there? -That's not it.
-Oh, are you saying that I'm not there? -No, that's not what I'm saying.
-Of course not. -Really, Kata, don't take this so--
[blender whirring]
-Why do you have to be like that? -Sorry?
-This is ridiculous. This is your-- -I can't hear you.
[phone rings]
Work's calling.
-Can we talk to him? -Sure. Tonight, I'll talk to him.
No, no, can we talk to him?
Yeah. Let's meet here tonight.
I guess I'll lock up for you.
Hey! What the hell do you think you're doing?
What?
Can't you see it's closed off here?
Yeah, but I didn't know that--
-Well, what's the tape here for then? -What's going on?
You need to keep a better eye on your guys.
Don't let them wander into restricted areas.
They could be charged for contaminating a crime scene.
Yeah, but I was just--
She's screwing with you, Kiddi.
Can you comment at all? Was someone killed?
-I can't say anything, Selma. -Please. Come on, Kata!
Kata?
Toti, can you stand guard back there?
We have an ID?
No wallet, no ID. Ten stab wounds, at least.
Time of death?
Twenty-four hours ago, maybe. Hard to be exact with the cold.
-Is Miro still here? -Yeah, his flight's tonight.
Good. I won't wait two weeks for the autopsy.
Blood spatter indicates that the killer held him close while stabbing him.
-Oh my God, tell me about the eyes. -Yeah, pretty disturbing.
Was he homeless?
Likely, with needle marks on both arms.
Oh? Then we should know the guy.
Have you prepared your speech?
Huh?
The department head scheduled a briefing later.
Can we both focus?
[Kata] I know who this is.
Open up! Open the door! This is the police!
Open the door, or we'll break it down right now!
-Are you alone? Anyone else in here? -Leave me alone!
-Down on the bed! -No, no!
-Show me your hands! -Ow, let me go!
-Hands behind your back! -You're hurting me!
Give me your hands now!
-You're hurting me. I didn't do anything! -Calm down!
Ow! I didn't do anything!
-Is she armed? -No, she's not armed. She's clean.
Calm down!
Help! Can somebody help me?
Iris, Iris! Listen to me!
Listen to me. Iris, listen to me.
-Iris, wait, listen. -Help me.
What happened to Thor?
-Iris, what happened to Thor? -Help me!
Listen to me. What happened to Thor? Tell me the truth.
Iris?
This is useless. We have to bring her in.
Okay, turn around.
Come on.
Need any help with anything, let me know.
No, get some samples off her.
She needs to sleep it off before I can question her anyways.
Okay.
Hi.
Hi Kata.
So were you able to question the woman?
-Iris? -Yeah.
Nah, she wasn't in any condition for questioning.
-Do you think she did it? -I don't know.
You think there could be some kind of drug-related debt?
It could be. I'll find out soon enough.
And, Magnus, I really need some help.
There is so much security camera footage to go through.
-Helga and Erlingur will give you a hand. -Okay, great.
I don't have time. I've got my own case.
A 30-year-old skeleton can wait. This is a priority case.
But what about the pictures we released to the press?
The lighter and the necklace have to have been recognized by somebody.
Magnus, we have to follow up on this.
If something new comes up, we'll follow up on it.
But in the meantime, you'll help her.
[Magnus] Helga, can I have a word with you?
Hi.
Hey, get everything we have on Thor Ingimarsson for me.
Is that the deceased?
-Yeah, he's got a criminal record. -Yeah, I'm on--
Wait, wait, wait!
And when you're done,
you can go through all the CCTV footage from around the harbor
Ugh, Kata.
[phone rings]
-[man's voice] Hello. -[Kata] Hi, can you talk?
-What, now? -Have you heard about the murder?
-Yeah, fuck. -Meet me at the burger joint.
Yeah, okay.
Hey, champ.
Hey.
Nice.
-That a new jacket? -This thing? Vintage.
Dress for success, you know?
What do you know about Thor?
Where did he get the money? Selling or what?
Thor is an asshole. Or, know you, he was an asshole.
It depends on how you look at it.
Is it true he got stabbed 50 times?
-Was he in debt? -No.
You know, he was just some old nobody.
That's why it's fucking weird.
You know, a bit creepy. Don't work for shit.
Dealt a little back in the day.
Big shot.
Barely anything, you know.
But now, recently, thing's just went, bang!
He's living like a fucking king. That money stank like shit, big time.
-Had he been dealing again? -No, hardly. He was too lazy for that.
Big asshole, like I said.
I mean his ex could tell you all about the kind of shithead the guy was.
Hm, okay.
-I can't really say that it's a surprise. -Oh? Did you keep up contact with Thor?
I called him yesterday evening
and told him never to come near our son again.
When we saw each other last, he was so... messed up.
What's wrong with you?!
He used some shit Thor had laying around.
Disgusting asshole.
-Would anyone want to hurt him? -All he had were enemies.
Where were you last night?
If I had wanted to kill him, I would have, right?
Who knows, maybe I would have done it if it wasn't for my boy Fannar.
When's the funeral?
Autopsy is first. Does it matter?
I expect that'll fall on me.
[heavy metal music playing loudly]
What's up?
-How are you doing? -I'm good.
Anything new on the skeleton?
Yeah, we know it was a 12- to 16-year-old boy now.
-Ugh. -Yeah.
And what can you tell me about our new friend here?
Him? He's dead. [they laugh]
So, alcohol, amphetamines and cocaine in his blood.
Ten knife wounds, seven on the front with three behind.
And this one right here went through the artery.
-And the knife? -Long and narrow, around 15 centimeters.
-Crime of passion? -Yeah, it looks that way.
Could a woman have done it?
No, I don't think so. You'd need a lot of force to inflict wounds this deep.
An adrenaline rush?
I guess... But I'm 100% sure that the killer is a male.
Help me, just grab him and help me.
-Huh? -Just give me a hand.
The wound is high on the back, meaning the knife was held like this.
This is a vertical stab wound, meaning they had to be his height or taller.
-Can I let go now then? -Yeah, of course.
The wounds over here are deeper, so they came first.
-How about the eyes? -Yeah, those eyes.
That is something I've never seen. I mean, very, very unusual.
-Done before or after he died? -After, a straight cut across the eyes.
Why not run? Why take the risk of staying?
I haven't the slightest idea.
Hey, I heard somewhere they're going to put you in charge of the CID tonight.
That true?
Miro, I can't discuss that now.
Hey, I'm just happy for you.
Thanks.
Yes?
Mom, you have a key. I'm at work.
I thought that someone would be here to meet me.
I'm busy.
I can't reach Kari, so--
-Kata. -Kari is out somewhere.
The footage came in just now.
Okay. Hey, mom, I have to go. Bye.
[Kata] Mhm.
[Erlingur] And then we've also got this angle here. You can see them right there.
And here's the third.
This is still a bit farther east from the spot where Thor was murdered.
Any cameras that saw the harbor better?
-[female voice] Kata. -Yeah?
-Iris is ready for interrogation. -Okay, thank you.
There have to be some more cameras there.
Let's see if one of these businesses has one.
-Check it out. -On it.
Okay.
Give me your hands.
Did you know that if you were to stab someone like that
that would leave quite a few deep marks on your hands.
Iris, I know you didn't do this.
But I don't know if you were an accessory or not.
-Accessory? -Like we discussed.
You'd get six years.
Plus the two more years on top for tampering with the body of course.
Tampering with the body?
Why did you take the wallet?
-What wallet? -Don't lie to me. Why did you take it?
Uh...
I can't.
Well, last night I saw a man... following us.
I told Thor, but he... He wouldn't listen to me.
And so he pushed me, so I ran home.
When I got back, he had already been killed.
What did he look like, the man who was following you?
-I don't know. -You don't know?
I don't know.
He would disappear and appear again and again.
But he was... all dressed in dark clothes.
Sorry, I feel sick.
Do you have Diazepam or something? I think I'm really gonna...
[Iris cries]
-What's that smell? -She threw up all over me, goddamn it.
-Stop whining and take your shirt off. -What, here?
-Yeah, right now. -Here, you pull then.
Pull.
There we go.
Jesus.
Come out now. I'm dressed.
Was there anyone in the tapes that could have been following Iris and Thor?
-No... What stinks? -It doesn't matter.
Iris said that they were being followed. Can we go through it some more?
I mean, we went through all of this before. There's nothing new.
Look, this angle here, the one closest to the harbor.
Here we see Iris looking over her shoulder.
Right there, just before she leaves.
-And it might even be possible to... -Sure, but--
...enhance the reverse angle that we have of them over here.
I could swear that she looks back.
Look at this. Here they come now, Iris and Thor.
Right there, if we stop it here, look...
She's looking back there. There's something behind them.
Yeah.
-[Erlingur] Let's see. -[Kata] You're right, she's looking back.
[Erlingur] Okay, then she leaves, like we saw in the other one.
Right there! Someone comes walking.
-[Kata] Enhance that. -[Erlingur] Yeah, hold on.
[Erlingur] This guy could be the man who Iris said followed them.
-Yeah, but this image is just useless. -No, it tells us that Iris isn't lying.
Someone was following them.
[clapping]
[Male voice] Everyone.
Good evening, everyone.
I know it's somewhat unusual for the national police commissioner
to come all the way down to CID.
But I actually worked here back when this was still called RLR.
And um, that was then...
Um, Criminal Investigations has been without a chief for a while now.
Uh... And our commissioner, Magnus, has led all of you...
in the meantime.
Now we come to an important point.
Well, without further ado, Magnus will take things over right now.
Magnus, here you go.
Are you ready for your speech?
[Magnus] Thank you for that, Vilhjalmur.
Well, as you all know, I'm not one to give these long speeches,
so I suppose I'll get right to the point.
Please allow me to introduce the new head of Criminal Investigations.
Helga, would you come up here?
Helga began her career working in the Airport Commission in Keflavik's office.
And has for the last ten years worked in Narcotics
and done amazing work over there.
Congratulations, Helga.
Thank you.
Can I have a word?
What are you thinking?
-Come again? -Come again?!
She's only been here a few weeks. She has no idea.
She's the best choice at the moment.
The best choice?
-How do you think this looks? -How this looks?
Yeah, it's not even subtle. I'm being snubbed, and you know it, Magnus.
I've been here for more than ten years.
I have way more experience than...
-Okay, is it... is this politics? -Kata, don't act like that.
-It's not about politics at all. -Bullshit!
It's Vilhjalmur just promoting his own allies.
That's how he got promoted to commissioner, too, and you know it!
It's over and done with. You're next in line.
You okay?
-Couldn't get a better image? -Well, I'm still working on it.
So, uh... Egill called.
-He sounded pissed. -Oh, shit.
-Hi, honey. -Hi.
-Look what I brought! -Thank you, dear. Thanks.
-How are you feeling? -Uh, you know, I've felt better.
Sorry I'm so late. I thought I'd never get out.
-Are they still changing things around? -Yeah, now it's gonna be a hotel.
How original.
-What are we watching? -Don't change it! I was watching.
In that case, I'm gonna eat.
[Kata] Hi. I'm sorry.
-They've been here for ages! -They?
Yes, Berglind came with. I couldn't just shut the door on her.
I tried calling you. I mean, I've been stuck with them.
Mom, calm down.
Okay. Promise me you'll control yourself.
[Egill and Berglind laughing]
-Hi. -[Egill] Hi
-Sorry I'm so late. -It's okay. It's alright.
We've just been enjoying Svava's wonderful cake here.
-Well, welcome. -Thanks.
-I thought we were talking to Kari? -Yes, we are. We're in this together.
-Is something wrong? -Where's Kari?
-His room, right now. -Okay, I guess I'll go get him.
Okay, wait. Fuck, fuck. Okay, wait...
Now, go, go! Okay, wait. Yeah, he's on your right!
Wait, okay. Shoot, shoot!
He's over there! Right there!
-Kari, I just need to talk to you. -Please let me finish this.
-It'll be one minute. -Now.
Down there. Shoot him, shoot him. Fuck. Get over there. Yeah, wait.
Yeah, yeah. Okay, good job! Fuck. Okay, shoot, shoot!
Yeah, I'm dead. Hold on.
Okay, hold on. I have to go talk to my mom.
Okay.
-Everything okay? -Hm?
-Are you good? -Yeah.
Are you sure?
-Dude. -Hm?
You have a closet.
Yeah, it's still a work in progress, you know what I'm saying?
-Dad is here. -Yeah, I know.
-And his lady friend. -Oh...
Okay.
-We want to have a little chat with you. -What did I do wrong?
We just want to speak to you. Come on now. Let's go.
Why? Come on.
Let's go.
[loud thud]
What was that?
What?
Go on and check it out. Huh?
Go check it out!
Omar?
[sounds of struggle]
Omar?
[screaming]
Omar?!
Omar!
[screaming]
Omar.
Kari, my boy.
When I was a young man, right about your age,
me and my buddies would go out partying.
And, you know, it would be fun and all.
But I never let my buddies drag me
into anything I might regret, looking back.
That making sense to you?
-You know, feeling pressured-- -Your dad thinks you could be drinking.
Oh, no.
You can tell us. We just want to hear the truth here.
Well, no, I haven't started drinking. Why would you think that?
Half a bottle of our cognac has gone missing.
Ugh, why would I want that gross old cognac?
It wasn't "gross cognac," it was amazing cognac.
-Hm? -Okay, no.
And what about the party you went to that day?
It was the school dance, not some party.
Okay, well, and you weren't you drinking at the dance?
No, at the door they made us take breathalyzer tests.
Your new friends? Is there any way that they could--
[phone rings]
What? Is it work?
Yeah, I gotta go. Grandma is staying with us.
Okay.
-Sorry. Bye. -Bye. Am I done here? Can I go now?
-Yeah, and we'll have more to talk about. -Okay.
So you live here?
No, I'm here temporarily. Found mold growing in my house.
-Can you tell us anything? -Do you know what's going on?
I can't say anything right now.
-Katrin, can I speak to you? -I'll talk to you later.
Don't take me away, please! Omar!
I have to go back! I want to see him!
Why the blanket?
Oh, his wife.
She just had an operation, was stuck in bed for it all.
-No. -Yeah.
-So, who's the body? -Omar Karlsson.
-The investor? -Yeah.
-They broke in? -No, there's no sign of that.
More likely he had come in through the front door.
Here, check this out.
No.
Yeah.
-Katrin -Yeah.
Magnus wants a word.
Hey.
-Is it the same killer? -Yeah, I think so.
Magnus.
-Magnus? -Sorry.
Listen to me. We keep this quiet for the moment.
Two murders, identical, within 24 hours.
We must release something. Now the media already knows about it.
Helga is going to draft a statement.
Something like, uh, some robbery that got out of hand.
-Wait, since when do we lie to the media? -Just do what I tell you, Kata.
Not a word about connections between murders.
We must be in control over what is public.
But, Magnus--
If not, the situation could escalate into total anarchy.
We have to go down to the station.
The national police commissioner has called for a press conference.
Kata.
Yes?
It has been decided that we are to to seek assistance from outside sources.
-Outside? -Yeah, Oslo.
-Yeah, isn't that a little drastic? -As you know, we are a bit undermanned.
I mean it doesn't hurt to have a little help.
Kata, this has nothing to do with you.
We trust you completely with this case.
I'm sure.
But, I'll have supervision over it until the investigation is concluded.
Anything else?
-No, not for now. -Bye.
[Magnus] Good evening, and thank you all for being here on such short notice.
The police are currently investigating two murders.
A very short time passed between these two murders.
Detective Katrin Gunnarsdottir has been leading the investigation
and will take your questions. Go ahead.
-Do you have any suspects? -We are unable to answer that right now.
Yes.
Is there any connection between the victims?
Unfortunately, we can't give out that information.
Is it true that foreign assistance has been requested?
Yes, there is a detective from Norway who is currently on route to Iceland.
He will assist us with the case.
Why at this stage of the investigation are you seeking help for this?
It is--
So are the Icelandic police not equipped for this case?
No, I'm not sure I'd say that, but--
As you know, the Icelandic police force has a long history of collaboration
with the Norwegian force, both here and in Norway, on a number of important cases.
Do you think this is a serial murderer?
Is that the reason for this new collaboration?
As I was trying to say earlier, right now I'm not--
So you're denying that this is the work of a serial killer?
-Selma, right now we're not going to-- -What about the victims' eyes?
Do you know why they were cut like that? Is the killer marking them?
Will there be more?
That concludes what we had for today. Thank you all for coming.
Anything you want the general public to know?
All relevant facts were in the statement read earlier.
That is all. Thank you.
Who are you protecting? The interests of the investigation?
We haven't received any information about the victims.
Are the victims connected in any way?
What's this serial killer I'm reading about in the news?
Helga?
I talked to Selma and Helgi, who work at RUV,
and they refused to name any of their sources.
[Vilhjalmur] This is bullshit! Goddamn idiots!
Don't these people understand they're tampering with a police investigation?!
