Jana - Marked For Life (2024) s01e01 Episode Script
Episode 1
-I'll be there soon.
-Were you asleep?
No, of course not.
Can you come soon? Please hurry.
This party is just old men.
I'm on my way to the car, okay?
We're at GIN now,
we'll be there after 10.
-Sure.
-Cool. See you.
-Jojo?
-Yes?
-Is that you in there?
-Mm.
-Have you talked to Jana?
-Yes, she's on her way!
-The guests are here!
-Okay!
-Hurry up now!
-Yes.
-Where's Jana?
-She'll be here in a minute.
-Typical to come at the last minute.
-Jojo just talked to her.
Darling, don't forget to breathe.
No, that would be stupid.
Jana?
Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you.
Hi.
Are you here for Karl?
No. I thought you might be here.
I've tried getting in touch
with you
Have you changed your number?
I've emailed
I don't want to talk to you, okay?
I promise, this time it's something
you really need to see.
Your promises
mean nothing to me, Hans.
I understand you feel that way.
But there's a
There's a little girl
you need to meet.
What's going on out here?
Hey, Karl.
I just have to show Jana something.
You know, Hans? It's great you're
so engaged with vulnerable children.
But I'm retiring today.
I'd like to celebrate that
with my family and friends,
so if you'll excuse us
-Jana, please.
-That's enough!
We're not interested.
-Why are you so late?
-I'm not late!
You're the last to arrive.
Beck-Friis cancelled,
they got some stomach bug.
-Jojo! Hey, darling.
-They got something in Bali.
-Here you are.
-Not smart to eat salad in Asia.
-No
-Where did you get to?
Hans Juhlén was outside.
-Hans Juhlén?
-Yes.
That man's interest in damaged
young women doesn't seem healthy.
Damaged young women?
Come on, Jana. Are we going to
let this taint the whole evening?
-Let's celebrate Dad!
-Ah, white lilies!
Congratulations.
Or should I offer my condolences?
-Thank you.
-They're funeral flowers.
Please. Cheer up, smiles on faces!
That's it!
Okay. Now you say a few words.
-I've already greeted everyone.
-Jesus
Can you drive me downtown tonight?
Nice to see you back! We thought the
whole Berzelius family had left!
No.
My first focus is to confront
Jonas and Miriam
with the truth of their economy
which they've been blind to
for too long.
I don't think they have
any idea how bad it is
What the hell?
You have to shut that window
downstairs.
What?
The office.
I didn't open it.
Have you defrosted the chantarelles?
No.
Then we'll get pizza.
What?
Oh, come on,
we were going to make risotto!
-I'll go buy some pizza.
-No! Risotto!
We're getting pizza.
It's been a huge honour to work
for Sweden's best chief prosecutor.
The unbeatable statistics
speak for themselves.
-Flattery will get you far.
-Exactly.
Now it's time for other things,
Karl.
That is, rest.
I'm aware you don't know that word.
No, he doesn't.
Well, it means, and I quote:
"for a person or object to maintain
one position
in relation to other things."
That is to say,
to not have anything going on, Karl.
But what I want to say is,
thank you, Karl, and good luck,
and cheers and enjoy your freedom.
-Cheers!
-Thank you.
Now you think I'm done, but I'm not.
The riff-raff are probably
very pleased that you're retiring,
but they shouldn't celebrate yet.
We have something else
to announce tonight.
A little surprise.
I don't like surprises.
Well, you'll like this one.
The first thing I did
as your successor, Karl,
was to recruit Jana
as Aspirant Prosecutor.
What? Wow!
We need a Berzelius in the house!
That's simply how it is.
Wow!
Yes, uh
I think it's time for some food.
Come sit down.
How could you, in front of everyone,
without telling me?
-What were you thinking?
-I was gonna tell you myself.
You already have a job waiting
at Stockholm's best agency.
-But this will suit me much better.
-Please, there are
thousands of areas you could
-Am I interrupting?
-No.
-Can I introduce you to a colleague?
-Yes.
Alright. I'll see you on Monday,
but I thought it could be good
This is Peer Bruckner,
Jana Berzelius.
-Hi.
-Hi.
Maybe you already know one another?
Yes we do.
-We were notaries together.
-Oh, that's right. Yes, of course.
-Tord, can I have a word?
-Sure. See you.
-It's been a long time.
-Mm.
How's the running going?
-Are you still as committed?
-I run till I throw up.
It sounds intense.
I do BJJ.
Brazilian Jujitsu.
Blue belt now, actually.
It's a kind of wrestling.
A lot of body contact
But it's tough.
It's a pretty hard sport.
So you don't think it's for me,
then?
Of course it is.
You should come along sometime.
-If you
-I think I'll stick with running.
But I'm going out tomorrow morning.
Six-thirty at the railway bridge.
Want to come?
Absolutely.
This is totally fucking absurd.
I do nothing but try to help you.
What the hell?
Talk to him.
-I'll try.
-Don't just try, talk to him now.
Okay?
Listen
This is important, okay?
We'll sort it out. Talk to him!
Let it go, Jana.
It'll pass.
I thought he'd be proud.
He is proud. I'm proud.
We're both proud.
But you know yourself
what a demanding career it is.
Yes.
How are you doing?
With sleep and everything.
-Good.
-I'm glad.
You'll be a fantastic prosecutor,
Jana, I know it.
You were going to drive me downtown,
the party's over.
No Are you leaving? We were going
to celebrate as a family now.
-What?
-Celebrate your birthday.
We celebrated Karl's retirement.
I know that.
But couldn't we
celebrate Jojo a bit?
Yeah, but my birthday's
in a week, Mum.
Yes
Goodness me Off with you!
-I'll do this.
-I'll help you.
No, that's not necessary.
Go on, have some fun.
Thank you for coming, bye!
Love you, bye!
Bye, love you!
Hey?
You did a great job.
Hey, what was that with Mum?
-What do you mean?
-She just seemed really weird.
She's got lots to do
and is really stressed.
It's not just stress.
She's been scattered before, but
it feels like something else now.
It felt really crazy.
And Dad
What the hell was up with him?
What's his problem?
Why was he so grumpy?
I didn't take the job
he organised for me.
God, Jana, forget him.
I think you're awesome, Jana.
I'm so proud of you.
Thanks.
He's just scared
you'll outshine him.
-Have fun.
-Thanks.
Wait, what's that?
-What?
-The white stuff on your phone.
It I baked canapés all day,
I guess it's flour.
-Who are you meeting?
-Stop acting like Mum.
-Thanks for the lift.
-Hey!
Hello?
Kerstin?
Kerstin?
Kerstin?
Kerstin?!
Kerstin!
Wake up!
I can't answer right now,
say something. Kisses!
Don't be such a pussy!
Shot, shot, shot!
Come on! I want to see! No, no, no!
Jojo?
Jesus. Come on, we're going home.
Good.
Wait, ow!
-You okay?
-Mm.
Wait, wait There.
Jana, you have to promise me.
What?
I have to live with you. I can't
deal with Mum and Dad anymore.
-So I have to live with you.
-Two weeks.
-If you behave.
-Yes, thank you!
Are you asleep?
-I thought you liked working out.
-I do
But we don't usually run much.
We have fights.
Okay.
Are you 12 or something?
No, that's what you say, right?
If you're a child.
It's not as easy as it looks.
-Okay.
-Come along sometime.
Then we can see who's grinning.
Or, who's laying on their back,
not grinning, begging for mercy.
Is that what you want?
People begging for mercy?
No.
Maybe a bit.
Why, what gets you off, then?
-Your phone's ringing.
-Oh.
Yes, Bruckner?
Oh.
When?
I'm on my way.
The head of the Migration Agency
was found dead.
Murdered at home.
Hans Juhlén?
Yes.
I saw him yesterday.
Yesterday?
He was at the party.
-Was he there?
-He didn't come in, he
He just came by
to say congratulations to Karl.
I've got to go there.
Can I come?
Sure.
Peer, great you could come so fast.
-This is Jana Berzelius.
-Hi.
-Amin.
-She's the new Aspirant Prosecutor.
-Do you have any theories?
-No.
But as head of the Migration Agency
he could have a number of enemies.
Lindgren's upstairs,
so check in with her.
Jana, are you coming?
Have you seen
a murder victim before?
No.
You never get used to it.
Severed artery in the armpit.
I assume you bleed out
quickly from that.
He was also strangled.
Do we have a murder weapon?
No, not yet.
-Any info on the perpetrator?
-No.
Was he home alone?
No, his wife was here.
She says she was asleep,
Henrik is with her now.
Hello?
What are you doing here?
My name is Jana,
from the Prosecution Authority.
Yeah, I know who you are.
Mia Bolander.
Have you touched anything?
No, but I was
looking at this window.
-Oh?
-Is Jana in here?
Yes, I saw this window, I think
someone might have gotten in here.
If you look closely,
there are tracks.
-Someone?
-It's very small.
Let Jana speak, it's great to have
an outsider with new perspectives,
who might see something new.
What's your theory?
Maybe a butler crawled through
the window and killed Juhlén?
What do you think?
If there are tracks,
they need investigating,
put a technician on it,
it could be something.
Okay.
Henrik is talking to the wife,
so I'll go check in.
It's better if you don't
run around by yourself.
Of course.
I understand that this is difficult.
And you don't need to answer
all our questions at once.
Mia Bolander, investigator,
Violent Crimes Unit.
We've gone through Hans' phone
and found some threatening texts,
we have reason to believe he may
have been blackmailed for money.
-Do you know anything about that?
-No.
I just asked these questions,
I think Kerstin needs
He didn't mention anything to you?
No one threatening, or?
No, who would that be?
The texts are sent from a prepaid
phone, so it can't be traced.
No, he never mentioned anything.
This note, these numbers,
we found it in Hans' pants pocket.
Do you recognise them?
No.
If you really think about it,
have you seen them before?
I don't know.
Do you think these numbers could
relate to his work in some way?
-I don't know.
-No.
I don't know anything,
I just know he's gone.
Let's go.
Thank you.
Karl?
We need to talk.
Is Jojo gonna stay with you?
You could have called
and let us know.
Hans Juhlén has been murdered.
What are you saying?
His wife found him this morning
on the living room floor.
He'd been stabbed with a knife
and strangled.
Oh my God.
He wanted me to meet someone.
Did he say anything?
Any idea what it was about?
No. He only talked to you.
Pretty weird coincidence.
How many times has he come around
with things like that?
If you only knew how many
wild theories
he's asked us to investigate,
over the years.
I'm gonna ask to assist on the case.
You can't do that.
You've got a conflict of interest.
Minor conflict of interest at worst.
Hans was highly involved
in your adoption.
You've been in contact.
Nobody knows about that.
-How could you stay objective?
-I need to do this.
You're risking
the whole damn investigation!
Your career will be over
before it's started.
Jana!
You could have an amazing life
ahead of you.
In five years you'd be partner
at Sweden's best firm.
I know you would.
I'm sorry
that I always disappoint you.
Please, this isn't about me.
THE PROSECUTION AUTHORITY
NORRKÖPING
Thank you.
-Jana, welcome.
-Thank you.
-How does it feel?
-Good.
I heard you were at the crime scene.
That's right.
It's great that you're
showing initiative, Jana,
just let me know next time, okay?
Of course, but I'd love
to assist Peer on this case.
But I was thinking I'd put you
on a different case.
Why?
A murder case with a public
figure isn't a good first case.
Why not?
Peer requested someone
with more experience.
-Did you speak to Karl?
-No.
-He hasn't called?
-Oh, yeah, he does now and then.
We talk about all sorts of things,
being old colleagues, so
So, well just between you and me,
if Peer is fine with this,
I can approve it, okay?
Okay.
Berzelius, welcome to
the Prosecution Authority.
Get yourself settled, Jana,
show her around, Peer?
Here's something to start with,
get into it.
I'd really like to assist you
on the Juhlén case.
No, I don't think
that's a good idea,
but there will be
plenty of opportunities.
Or we'll discuss it over lunch?
-No, sorry, I've got training.
-Can I come?
Try having a fight.
Why can't I assist
on the Juhlén case?
You met the murder victim.
You understand why that's sensitive.
Is that the only reason?
What was Juhlén doing at your place?
He was congratulating Karl.
I spoke to him for like 10 seconds.
-Come on.
-I might not even need a second.
I'll work really hard.
Leave it. Hi, Micke.
Good job, stand up.
Right, let's do some sparring,
nice and easy, be careful, let's go.
-Let's do it, ready?
-Yeah.
Sorry, I couldn't resist.
You have to think
about your balance.
Let go, that's enough.
I said let go!
Let go!
What are you doing?
-Are you okay?
-Yeah.
-He was tapping.
-It's okay.
What fucking club are you from?
-I don't go to a club.
-You don't go to a club?
Okay, what belt do you have?
I have no belt, I
You don't have a belt?
Do you think I'm stupid?
-No
-Take it real easy now, understand?
-I don't know what happened.
-It's fine.
-I panicked, and I tried to
-Because you can't assist me?
Yeah, a little bit.
Well, maybe it's best you do then.
Really?
But you seeing Juhlén?
That stays between us.
Mm.
One more thing
if we're gonna work together.
Yeah?
I'd appreciate if you didn't subject
me to more humiliating pranks.
Pretend you're a beginner
and then do a show off move.
Honestly, I
I won't.
I'm sorry.
Does it hurt?
-Mia?
-I'm coming!
Yeah, okay.
We've mapped out Hans Juhlén's
last hours,
who he spent time with
and what he did.
Mia, can you?
Yes, he worked late,
bought food on his way home,
but his wife, Kerstin, hadn't
defrosted mushrooms for the risotto,
so he had to go buy pizza.
A totally normal Saturday night.
-Nothing else?
-Nothing else.
Other than the threatening texts?
Exactly.
Anything on the perpetrator?
Yeah, about five houses
from Juhlén's,
a private surveillance camera
caught these images.
I'm sorry, is that a child?
It looks like it is,
but this is likely the perpetrator,
so that would be strange.
Probably a short adult.
Yes, and these images are taken
shortly after Juhlén was killed.
-Is he wearing a mask?
-Yes, it looks like it.
We've shown this image
to all the neighbours,
but nobody recognises the person.
But considering the body size,
this person could have gotten in
through the basement window.
Masks and things,
have you looked into that?
Yeah, but we didn't
find anything useful.
Jana?
Jana?
Do you know what refugees he was
in contact with recently?
Yes, we're on it.
Good.
And as head of the Migration Agency
he obviously didn't know about
every asylum seeker,
but they know who he is.
But there is one girl who's case
he got more involved in,
in the last few weeks,
we're going to see her now.
How old is the girl?
We don't actually know.
They might know more about
the community home she's staying in.
I'll go with you.
If that's okay.
Yeah, of course.
It'll be fun.
It's toward Dagsberg,
so either follow in your car,
or I'll give you the address.
Right, I'll follow you.
Yeah.
Charming.
Is she going to come with us
all the time now?
EKGÅRDEN
Hans Juhlén was so good with her.
She didn't speak at all
when she got here.
He got her to open up a little,
he found out her name was Victoria.
We think she understands
some English.
Okay, but you don't know anything
else about what country she's from,
or potential parents?
No, most of our kids
came here alone.
We'd like to try, if that's okay?
Be gentle with her,
speak one at a time.
-Of course, should I?
-Yeah.
Victoria, we're from the police and
we want to ask you some questions.
Okay?
This man, Hans Juhlén
Do you recognise him?
I know he visits you.
Don't have too high hopes,
Hans could sit with her for hours
without her saying a word.
We need to know
what you talked about
Why do you think he was
so interested in her case?
-The way she arrived, maybe.
-Oh?
She showed up all wet
and really cold.
Apparently, she floated ashore,
like a little mermaid.
-Where did she come ashore?
-No one knows exactly,
but probably Bråviken.
It's very important
Jana.
I said one at a time.
Did he promise you something?
Did he promise
he was gonna find your family?
Your mum and dad?
Look, I'm gonna do everything
I can to find your family.
But you have to talk to me first.
Just tell me.
Look, I will help you,
but you have to talk to me.
-That's enough.
-Just tell me.
What the hell?
You can't give her
a bunch of false hopes like that.
What the hell are you doing, Jana?
Maybe she didn't handle it well,
but she made contact with her.
It must be lovely, being the
daughter of a chief prosecutor,
being able to behave
however the hell she wants.
She completely crossed the line.
Why do you hate Jana so much?
Is it because she's young, smart,
or because she's rich?
No, it's because she's given so much
because of her last name.
Okay
Well, anyway
Is it the aquarium guy?
Who?
What do you mean, who?
The reptile guy.
No, that's over. How can you not
write that on your profile?
That you have snakes?
No, that you have gross,
lethal snakes in your apartment.
I don't know,
do you write in your profile
that you like gross murders
and lethal criminals?
-Stop it.
-No, you should.
-Thanks for the tip, I'll do that.
-No, don't do that, it's
Right
How's it going for you?
With the dad sex?
Don't say dad sex, please,
it sounds
I don't know if you're ready
to move out
if you can't even
carry your own bags.
Hey, that psychologist
I saw when I was little?
Who was it?
-Please, Jana.
-Just tell me her name.
You were so unwell
when you worked through that.
What's her name?
-I don't remember.
-Yes, Monica Grankvist.
Such a good psychologist.
She's the one who helped you
sleep at night.
-She must have retired ages ago.
-Hello?
I'm moving out, why are you talking
about some old psychologist?
Yes, true, why are we
bickering about this?
You're not moving out, are you?
Yes, we've talked about this,
did you forget?
-No we haven't.
-Yes, we have, I've
-Please, stop it!
-Peer?
We've probably found
Juhlén's killer, dead unfortunately.
-Send the address?
-I'll wait for you there.
-I'm staying with Jana.
-I've told you this.
-Mum will have to drive you.
-What?
Did you see what he looked like?
Too dark.
-Hi.
-Hi.
-Have you been there?
-No.
He got into a car after.
Did you see the licence plate?
Did you see the licence plate?
-Shall we?
-Yeah.
Can you take over?
Thank you.
A child.
Between 10 and 12 years old,
I think.
Fucking hell.
He probably died quickly,
from a stab wound in his back.
And he has injuries all over
his body, but they're old,
you can see it on his wrists.
It's like he's been tortured.
Look at this.
It looks like someone's carved
something there. Scar tissue.
If it's gang-related there could be
others with similar symbols.
I'll send pictures
so you can check the archives.
Have you heard if anyone's looking
for a boy this age?
-No missing children.
-Okay.
-Interpol?
-We're on it.
-Were you asleep?
No, of course not.
Can you come soon? Please hurry.
This party is just old men.
I'm on my way to the car, okay?
We're at GIN now,
we'll be there after 10.
-Sure.
-Cool. See you.
-Jojo?
-Yes?
-Is that you in there?
-Mm.
-Have you talked to Jana?
-Yes, she's on her way!
-The guests are here!
-Okay!
-Hurry up now!
-Yes.
-Where's Jana?
-She'll be here in a minute.
-Typical to come at the last minute.
-Jojo just talked to her.
Darling, don't forget to breathe.
No, that would be stupid.
Jana?
Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you.
Hi.
Are you here for Karl?
No. I thought you might be here.
I've tried getting in touch
with you
Have you changed your number?
I've emailed
I don't want to talk to you, okay?
I promise, this time it's something
you really need to see.
Your promises
mean nothing to me, Hans.
I understand you feel that way.
But there's a
There's a little girl
you need to meet.
What's going on out here?
Hey, Karl.
I just have to show Jana something.
You know, Hans? It's great you're
so engaged with vulnerable children.
But I'm retiring today.
I'd like to celebrate that
with my family and friends,
so if you'll excuse us
-Jana, please.
-That's enough!
We're not interested.
-Why are you so late?
-I'm not late!
You're the last to arrive.
Beck-Friis cancelled,
they got some stomach bug.
-Jojo! Hey, darling.
-They got something in Bali.
-Here you are.
-Not smart to eat salad in Asia.
-No
-Where did you get to?
Hans Juhlén was outside.
-Hans Juhlén?
-Yes.
That man's interest in damaged
young women doesn't seem healthy.
Damaged young women?
Come on, Jana. Are we going to
let this taint the whole evening?
-Let's celebrate Dad!
-Ah, white lilies!
Congratulations.
Or should I offer my condolences?
-Thank you.
-They're funeral flowers.
Please. Cheer up, smiles on faces!
That's it!
Okay. Now you say a few words.
-I've already greeted everyone.
-Jesus
Can you drive me downtown tonight?
Nice to see you back! We thought the
whole Berzelius family had left!
No.
My first focus is to confront
Jonas and Miriam
with the truth of their economy
which they've been blind to
for too long.
I don't think they have
any idea how bad it is
What the hell?
You have to shut that window
downstairs.
What?
The office.
I didn't open it.
Have you defrosted the chantarelles?
No.
Then we'll get pizza.
What?
Oh, come on,
we were going to make risotto!
-I'll go buy some pizza.
-No! Risotto!
We're getting pizza.
It's been a huge honour to work
for Sweden's best chief prosecutor.
The unbeatable statistics
speak for themselves.
-Flattery will get you far.
-Exactly.
Now it's time for other things,
Karl.
That is, rest.
I'm aware you don't know that word.
No, he doesn't.
Well, it means, and I quote:
"for a person or object to maintain
one position
in relation to other things."
That is to say,
to not have anything going on, Karl.
But what I want to say is,
thank you, Karl, and good luck,
and cheers and enjoy your freedom.
-Cheers!
-Thank you.
Now you think I'm done, but I'm not.
The riff-raff are probably
very pleased that you're retiring,
but they shouldn't celebrate yet.
We have something else
to announce tonight.
A little surprise.
I don't like surprises.
Well, you'll like this one.
The first thing I did
as your successor, Karl,
was to recruit Jana
as Aspirant Prosecutor.
What? Wow!
We need a Berzelius in the house!
That's simply how it is.
Wow!
Yes, uh
I think it's time for some food.
Come sit down.
How could you, in front of everyone,
without telling me?
-What were you thinking?
-I was gonna tell you myself.
You already have a job waiting
at Stockholm's best agency.
-But this will suit me much better.
-Please, there are
thousands of areas you could
-Am I interrupting?
-No.
-Can I introduce you to a colleague?
-Yes.
Alright. I'll see you on Monday,
but I thought it could be good
This is Peer Bruckner,
Jana Berzelius.
-Hi.
-Hi.
Maybe you already know one another?
Yes we do.
-We were notaries together.
-Oh, that's right. Yes, of course.
-Tord, can I have a word?
-Sure. See you.
-It's been a long time.
-Mm.
How's the running going?
-Are you still as committed?
-I run till I throw up.
It sounds intense.
I do BJJ.
Brazilian Jujitsu.
Blue belt now, actually.
It's a kind of wrestling.
A lot of body contact
But it's tough.
It's a pretty hard sport.
So you don't think it's for me,
then?
Of course it is.
You should come along sometime.
-If you
-I think I'll stick with running.
But I'm going out tomorrow morning.
Six-thirty at the railway bridge.
Want to come?
Absolutely.
This is totally fucking absurd.
I do nothing but try to help you.
What the hell?
Talk to him.
-I'll try.
-Don't just try, talk to him now.
Okay?
Listen
This is important, okay?
We'll sort it out. Talk to him!
Let it go, Jana.
It'll pass.
I thought he'd be proud.
He is proud. I'm proud.
We're both proud.
But you know yourself
what a demanding career it is.
Yes.
How are you doing?
With sleep and everything.
-Good.
-I'm glad.
You'll be a fantastic prosecutor,
Jana, I know it.
You were going to drive me downtown,
the party's over.
No Are you leaving? We were going
to celebrate as a family now.
-What?
-Celebrate your birthday.
We celebrated Karl's retirement.
I know that.
But couldn't we
celebrate Jojo a bit?
Yeah, but my birthday's
in a week, Mum.
Yes
Goodness me Off with you!
-I'll do this.
-I'll help you.
No, that's not necessary.
Go on, have some fun.
Thank you for coming, bye!
Love you, bye!
Bye, love you!
Hey?
You did a great job.
Hey, what was that with Mum?
-What do you mean?
-She just seemed really weird.
She's got lots to do
and is really stressed.
It's not just stress.
She's been scattered before, but
it feels like something else now.
It felt really crazy.
And Dad
What the hell was up with him?
What's his problem?
Why was he so grumpy?
I didn't take the job
he organised for me.
God, Jana, forget him.
I think you're awesome, Jana.
I'm so proud of you.
Thanks.
He's just scared
you'll outshine him.
-Have fun.
-Thanks.
Wait, what's that?
-What?
-The white stuff on your phone.
It I baked canapés all day,
I guess it's flour.
-Who are you meeting?
-Stop acting like Mum.
-Thanks for the lift.
-Hey!
Hello?
Kerstin?
Kerstin?
Kerstin?
Kerstin?!
Kerstin!
Wake up!
I can't answer right now,
say something. Kisses!
Don't be such a pussy!
Shot, shot, shot!
Come on! I want to see! No, no, no!
Jojo?
Jesus. Come on, we're going home.
Good.
Wait, ow!
-You okay?
-Mm.
Wait, wait There.
Jana, you have to promise me.
What?
I have to live with you. I can't
deal with Mum and Dad anymore.
-So I have to live with you.
-Two weeks.
-If you behave.
-Yes, thank you!
Are you asleep?
-I thought you liked working out.
-I do
But we don't usually run much.
We have fights.
Okay.
Are you 12 or something?
No, that's what you say, right?
If you're a child.
It's not as easy as it looks.
-Okay.
-Come along sometime.
Then we can see who's grinning.
Or, who's laying on their back,
not grinning, begging for mercy.
Is that what you want?
People begging for mercy?
No.
Maybe a bit.
Why, what gets you off, then?
-Your phone's ringing.
-Oh.
Yes, Bruckner?
Oh.
When?
I'm on my way.
The head of the Migration Agency
was found dead.
Murdered at home.
Hans Juhlén?
Yes.
I saw him yesterday.
Yesterday?
He was at the party.
-Was he there?
-He didn't come in, he
He just came by
to say congratulations to Karl.
I've got to go there.
Can I come?
Sure.
Peer, great you could come so fast.
-This is Jana Berzelius.
-Hi.
-Amin.
-She's the new Aspirant Prosecutor.
-Do you have any theories?
-No.
But as head of the Migration Agency
he could have a number of enemies.
Lindgren's upstairs,
so check in with her.
Jana, are you coming?
Have you seen
a murder victim before?
No.
You never get used to it.
Severed artery in the armpit.
I assume you bleed out
quickly from that.
He was also strangled.
Do we have a murder weapon?
No, not yet.
-Any info on the perpetrator?
-No.
Was he home alone?
No, his wife was here.
She says she was asleep,
Henrik is with her now.
Hello?
What are you doing here?
My name is Jana,
from the Prosecution Authority.
Yeah, I know who you are.
Mia Bolander.
Have you touched anything?
No, but I was
looking at this window.
-Oh?
-Is Jana in here?
Yes, I saw this window, I think
someone might have gotten in here.
If you look closely,
there are tracks.
-Someone?
-It's very small.
Let Jana speak, it's great to have
an outsider with new perspectives,
who might see something new.
What's your theory?
Maybe a butler crawled through
the window and killed Juhlén?
What do you think?
If there are tracks,
they need investigating,
put a technician on it,
it could be something.
Okay.
Henrik is talking to the wife,
so I'll go check in.
It's better if you don't
run around by yourself.
Of course.
I understand that this is difficult.
And you don't need to answer
all our questions at once.
Mia Bolander, investigator,
Violent Crimes Unit.
We've gone through Hans' phone
and found some threatening texts,
we have reason to believe he may
have been blackmailed for money.
-Do you know anything about that?
-No.
I just asked these questions,
I think Kerstin needs
He didn't mention anything to you?
No one threatening, or?
No, who would that be?
The texts are sent from a prepaid
phone, so it can't be traced.
No, he never mentioned anything.
This note, these numbers,
we found it in Hans' pants pocket.
Do you recognise them?
No.
If you really think about it,
have you seen them before?
I don't know.
Do you think these numbers could
relate to his work in some way?
-I don't know.
-No.
I don't know anything,
I just know he's gone.
Let's go.
Thank you.
Karl?
We need to talk.
Is Jojo gonna stay with you?
You could have called
and let us know.
Hans Juhlén has been murdered.
What are you saying?
His wife found him this morning
on the living room floor.
He'd been stabbed with a knife
and strangled.
Oh my God.
He wanted me to meet someone.
Did he say anything?
Any idea what it was about?
No. He only talked to you.
Pretty weird coincidence.
How many times has he come around
with things like that?
If you only knew how many
wild theories
he's asked us to investigate,
over the years.
I'm gonna ask to assist on the case.
You can't do that.
You've got a conflict of interest.
Minor conflict of interest at worst.
Hans was highly involved
in your adoption.
You've been in contact.
Nobody knows about that.
-How could you stay objective?
-I need to do this.
You're risking
the whole damn investigation!
Your career will be over
before it's started.
Jana!
You could have an amazing life
ahead of you.
In five years you'd be partner
at Sweden's best firm.
I know you would.
I'm sorry
that I always disappoint you.
Please, this isn't about me.
THE PROSECUTION AUTHORITY
NORRKÖPING
Thank you.
-Jana, welcome.
-Thank you.
-How does it feel?
-Good.
I heard you were at the crime scene.
That's right.
It's great that you're
showing initiative, Jana,
just let me know next time, okay?
Of course, but I'd love
to assist Peer on this case.
But I was thinking I'd put you
on a different case.
Why?
A murder case with a public
figure isn't a good first case.
Why not?
Peer requested someone
with more experience.
-Did you speak to Karl?
-No.
-He hasn't called?
-Oh, yeah, he does now and then.
We talk about all sorts of things,
being old colleagues, so
So, well just between you and me,
if Peer is fine with this,
I can approve it, okay?
Okay.
Berzelius, welcome to
the Prosecution Authority.
Get yourself settled, Jana,
show her around, Peer?
Here's something to start with,
get into it.
I'd really like to assist you
on the Juhlén case.
No, I don't think
that's a good idea,
but there will be
plenty of opportunities.
Or we'll discuss it over lunch?
-No, sorry, I've got training.
-Can I come?
Try having a fight.
Why can't I assist
on the Juhlén case?
You met the murder victim.
You understand why that's sensitive.
Is that the only reason?
What was Juhlén doing at your place?
He was congratulating Karl.
I spoke to him for like 10 seconds.
-Come on.
-I might not even need a second.
I'll work really hard.
Leave it. Hi, Micke.
Good job, stand up.
Right, let's do some sparring,
nice and easy, be careful, let's go.
-Let's do it, ready?
-Yeah.
Sorry, I couldn't resist.
You have to think
about your balance.
Let go, that's enough.
I said let go!
Let go!
What are you doing?
-Are you okay?
-Yeah.
-He was tapping.
-It's okay.
What fucking club are you from?
-I don't go to a club.
-You don't go to a club?
Okay, what belt do you have?
I have no belt, I
You don't have a belt?
Do you think I'm stupid?
-No
-Take it real easy now, understand?
-I don't know what happened.
-It's fine.
-I panicked, and I tried to
-Because you can't assist me?
Yeah, a little bit.
Well, maybe it's best you do then.
Really?
But you seeing Juhlén?
That stays between us.
Mm.
One more thing
if we're gonna work together.
Yeah?
I'd appreciate if you didn't subject
me to more humiliating pranks.
Pretend you're a beginner
and then do a show off move.
Honestly, I
I won't.
I'm sorry.
Does it hurt?
-Mia?
-I'm coming!
Yeah, okay.
We've mapped out Hans Juhlén's
last hours,
who he spent time with
and what he did.
Mia, can you?
Yes, he worked late,
bought food on his way home,
but his wife, Kerstin, hadn't
defrosted mushrooms for the risotto,
so he had to go buy pizza.
A totally normal Saturday night.
-Nothing else?
-Nothing else.
Other than the threatening texts?
Exactly.
Anything on the perpetrator?
Yeah, about five houses
from Juhlén's,
a private surveillance camera
caught these images.
I'm sorry, is that a child?
It looks like it is,
but this is likely the perpetrator,
so that would be strange.
Probably a short adult.
Yes, and these images are taken
shortly after Juhlén was killed.
-Is he wearing a mask?
-Yes, it looks like it.
We've shown this image
to all the neighbours,
but nobody recognises the person.
But considering the body size,
this person could have gotten in
through the basement window.
Masks and things,
have you looked into that?
Yeah, but we didn't
find anything useful.
Jana?
Jana?
Do you know what refugees he was
in contact with recently?
Yes, we're on it.
Good.
And as head of the Migration Agency
he obviously didn't know about
every asylum seeker,
but they know who he is.
But there is one girl who's case
he got more involved in,
in the last few weeks,
we're going to see her now.
How old is the girl?
We don't actually know.
They might know more about
the community home she's staying in.
I'll go with you.
If that's okay.
Yeah, of course.
It'll be fun.
It's toward Dagsberg,
so either follow in your car,
or I'll give you the address.
Right, I'll follow you.
Yeah.
Charming.
Is she going to come with us
all the time now?
EKGÅRDEN
Hans Juhlén was so good with her.
She didn't speak at all
when she got here.
He got her to open up a little,
he found out her name was Victoria.
We think she understands
some English.
Okay, but you don't know anything
else about what country she's from,
or potential parents?
No, most of our kids
came here alone.
We'd like to try, if that's okay?
Be gentle with her,
speak one at a time.
-Of course, should I?
-Yeah.
Victoria, we're from the police and
we want to ask you some questions.
Okay?
This man, Hans Juhlén
Do you recognise him?
I know he visits you.
Don't have too high hopes,
Hans could sit with her for hours
without her saying a word.
We need to know
what you talked about
Why do you think he was
so interested in her case?
-The way she arrived, maybe.
-Oh?
She showed up all wet
and really cold.
Apparently, she floated ashore,
like a little mermaid.
-Where did she come ashore?
-No one knows exactly,
but probably Bråviken.
It's very important
Jana.
I said one at a time.
Did he promise you something?
Did he promise
he was gonna find your family?
Your mum and dad?
Look, I'm gonna do everything
I can to find your family.
But you have to talk to me first.
Just tell me.
Look, I will help you,
but you have to talk to me.
-That's enough.
-Just tell me.
What the hell?
You can't give her
a bunch of false hopes like that.
What the hell are you doing, Jana?
Maybe she didn't handle it well,
but she made contact with her.
It must be lovely, being the
daughter of a chief prosecutor,
being able to behave
however the hell she wants.
She completely crossed the line.
Why do you hate Jana so much?
Is it because she's young, smart,
or because she's rich?
No, it's because she's given so much
because of her last name.
Okay
Well, anyway
Is it the aquarium guy?
Who?
What do you mean, who?
The reptile guy.
No, that's over. How can you not
write that on your profile?
That you have snakes?
No, that you have gross,
lethal snakes in your apartment.
I don't know,
do you write in your profile
that you like gross murders
and lethal criminals?
-Stop it.
-No, you should.
-Thanks for the tip, I'll do that.
-No, don't do that, it's
Right
How's it going for you?
With the dad sex?
Don't say dad sex, please,
it sounds
I don't know if you're ready
to move out
if you can't even
carry your own bags.
Hey, that psychologist
I saw when I was little?
Who was it?
-Please, Jana.
-Just tell me her name.
You were so unwell
when you worked through that.
What's her name?
-I don't remember.
-Yes, Monica Grankvist.
Such a good psychologist.
She's the one who helped you
sleep at night.
-She must have retired ages ago.
-Hello?
I'm moving out, why are you talking
about some old psychologist?
Yes, true, why are we
bickering about this?
You're not moving out, are you?
Yes, we've talked about this,
did you forget?
-No we haven't.
-Yes, we have, I've
-Please, stop it!
-Peer?
We've probably found
Juhlén's killer, dead unfortunately.
-Send the address?
-I'll wait for you there.
-I'm staying with Jana.
-I've told you this.
-Mum will have to drive you.
-What?
Did you see what he looked like?
Too dark.
-Hi.
-Hi.
-Have you been there?
-No.
He got into a car after.
Did you see the licence plate?
Did you see the licence plate?
-Shall we?
-Yeah.
Can you take over?
Thank you.
A child.
Between 10 and 12 years old,
I think.
Fucking hell.
He probably died quickly,
from a stab wound in his back.
And he has injuries all over
his body, but they're old,
you can see it on his wrists.
It's like he's been tortured.
Look at this.
It looks like someone's carved
something there. Scar tissue.
If it's gang-related there could be
others with similar symbols.
I'll send pictures
so you can check the archives.
Have you heard if anyone's looking
for a boy this age?
-No missing children.
-Okay.
-Interpol?
-We're on it.
