MOUNTAIN RESCUE
[indistinct overlapping chatter]
[man 1] Was that the last one? Okay.
Go careful with that, okay?
-Careful.
-[man 2] Yeah, I know.
[music fades out]

[woman in distance] Alicia!
Alicia!
[man in distance] Alicia!

THE GLASS DOME
[door opens]
[door closes]
Did you come into my room last night?
The window was wide open.
Please don't come into my room
when I'm asleep.
[Valter] I haven't been in your room.
Perhaps the catch is broken.
Look what I found outside.
Two out in the garden,
and this one floundering on the doorstep.
-They must have eaten something bad.
-So, are you leaving them there?
No, it was just so you could see.
-Did you book a new flight?
-Not yet.
So, you could come with me
and help with Ann-Marie's grave?
I'm going out. To the search.
-You were out until 4:30 this morning.
-I know.
You should get some rest.
Have you eaten at all?
-[Lejla] No.
-Well, then have some food.
Is the place cordoned off
where they found Alicia's clothes?
I expect so.
I think I want to go and see it.
And do what?
Take a look at the place.
I want to see it.
You have to come with me
so they'll let me through.
We'll go by the grave on the way home.
[indistinct chatter]
[Aino] Can I get you anything at all?
A sandwich or something?
No, thank you.
Tomas!
[Tomas sighs]
I need to know what's happening.
[sighs]
-No one's allowed to talk about the inves…
-Why do you have Said?
Uh…
Said is the victim's next of kin.
-So, that's why he's being held.
-That's inhumane, isn't it?
So, he has to just sit in there
for hours on end after what happened?
I want to take him home now.
Hmm. But you can't.
Hmm. This is not what Valter would do.
He would never keep things from me.
-[Tomas] I think you should go home, hmm?
-Oh, no. I am staying.
[knocking at door]
This is for you.
Ah. Thanks.
They're saying the Internet's too slow.
What shall I do? I already rang Sören,
but he's with the search.
He won't be here till late this afternoon.
And, uh…
There's dead birds everywhere.
-We're getting calls about it.
-Wh… What is that?
I don't know who to report it to.
-The Environment Agency, or…
-Uh…
-Yes, or I don't know. Let me go and…
-Can I try one of those?
-Uh, yeah, for sure.
-Thanks.
[keypad beeping]
[door opens]
Sorry for the delay.
Ah, great. I see you got some coffee.
[Tomas] So, it's 9:22 am.
Let's, uh, continue our chat, yeah?
I have a question.
How long will this all take?
I want to be out there searching.
Mm. Of course.
I just had
a few more questions… about Louise.
How were things between you two?
Fine, were good.
Or what do you mean?
[Tomas] You seem very calm and collected
for someone who has just lost his wife.
But… What?
You were happy as a couple
and… you loved each other?
You and Louise?
Uh-huh.
There are several people
who told us that, um…
Well, that you two weren't getting along
at the memorial service.
-What can you say about that?
-[inhales, clicks tongue]
Yeah, well, uh…
She wasn't very happy…
'cause I was going to Stockholm.
I had to work.
And that was a very big thing for her.
And… we had a fight about it.
Did you fight often?
[sighs] A bit.
-About what?
-[sniffs]
I don't know.
General stuff. Normal things.
Why are you lying to me?
Wh… What do you mean?
Louise filed for divorce.
And only Louise signed the papers.
But there's a six-month waiting period
that runs out next week.
[tense music playing]
And what do you mean by that?
That this has something
to do with her killing herself, or what?
I don't get it.
She wasn't happy here.
She felt we should've moved to the city.
Obviously, she was angry with me for that.
So, she sent off that.
She'd do stuff like that sometimes.
So, you're telling us
Louise had filed for divorce before?
No.
But this time she did and…
um, she chose to go ahead?
Is that what you mean?
Yeah, I meant that.
[sighs] It certainly looks like
she wanted a divorce.
But you didn't.
And now Louise is dead,
Alicia's nowhere to be found.
It all seems very odd
when you're sat there lying to us.
I'm waiting for the autopsy report,
and we will treat your house
as a suspected crime scene.
[camera shutter clicks]
HAVE YOU SEEN ALICIA?
[pop music playing on radio]
With you by my side
I can do anything ♪
[Björn] What's all this? [chuckles]
-[Valter] Oh, hi there.
-[Björn] It's been a while.
-Good to see you.
-[Valter] Yes, it's been a while.
-[Björn] Yes, it has.
-[Valter] Yeah. How are you?
-[Björn] Good.
-[Valter] Yeah?
[Björn] Did they finally managed
to recruit you to the mine?
-[Valter] No.
-Okay.
Tomas wanted me to come down here
and, uh… take a look at the place, yeah.
Yeah, they just started.
It's awful. This is Lejla.
[Björn] Hi.
-[Valter] All right.
-Ah…
There you go. Go on.
Is there anything else, or is this it?
[Björn] No, that's it.
Is she allowed
to be walking around in there?
[Valter] Yeah. I'll keep an eye on her.
-[Björn] Right. Go careful.
-Okay? Yeah.
They're sending a message here.
Someone is saying, "I have
complete control of this situation".
Someone has chosen Alicia, targeted her.
And really want the police to know that.
[Valter] Tomas needs to hear this.
[heartbeat pulses]
[sharp distortion]
[mobile phone vibrates]
NATIONAL BOARD OF FORENSIC MEDICINE
[gloomy music playing]
[Valter] I'm just going
to have a quick chat with…
[sighs]
[door closes]
Thank you.
Thanks for calling.
I could have stayed there
all day if you hadn't.
[Valter] Haven't they told you anything?
No, and… they've still got Said.
-[Lejla] Kristina.
-Yes?
So, um…
Alicia…
Um, is there anyone outside of her family
who Alicia's had contact with?
Anyone she talked about
or mentioned in any way?
-[Kristina] Uh…
-Anyone who comes to mind.
Someone that's been kind to her
or given her attention in any way?
[Kristina sighs]
[woman] That builder, maybe?
[Valter] What builder?
They had workmen in last autumn
to repair part of the roof, and…
one of Daniela's guys
was very fond of Alicia, wasn't he?
-But fond of her how, exactly?
-He just… was very happy with her.
Mm-hmm.
Mm.
I saw them together a few times
when I was over there.
And they were filming
some videos on his phone.
What were they filming?
Do you think he was filming her?
[exhales] I've no idea.
[tense music rises]
[dial tone beeps]
[sighs] Great.
Jorun's not answering either.
Someone should answer,
shouldn't they? Huh?
I mean, it's a bloody police station.
Maybe can't you and I go
and talk to that builder?
[Valter] It's not a very nice place.
[Lejla] We might be running out of time.
Mm.
[serious string music playing]
WELCOME TO GRANÅS COTTAGES
[Valter] Daniela?
[dog barking]
[Valter] Hi, Dani.
How are things?
We wanted to talk
to one of your men working here.
He did a job a while ago
at Said and Louise Kamran's place.
And why do you want to talk to him?
You've retired, haven't you?
Well, I help out from time to time,
you know? Just a little side gig.
It's a chance to earn good money, as long
as no one starts digging around, right?
[Daniela sighs] Oh.
Another one.
For Christ's sake.
[indistinct chatter]
Where is Maksim?
[knocking at door]
[Daniela] Maksim!
-[kicks door]
-Maksim!
They want to talk to you.
No.
Yes.
Asked you for a job.
[Lejla] Hi.
[door closes]
What do you want?
You know the language, then?
A little.
So, uh…
Uh, you worked before
at Louise and Said's house?
Yeah, sometimes.
Do you know about what happened?
Louise is dead.
And their daughter is missing.
Do you understand me?
I know that.
[Lejla] Okay.
-Police?
-[Lejla] No, but close friends.
Do you like Alicia?
Yeah.
Did you film her?
Uh…
No problem.
If you did film Alicia,
then I want to see those videos.
Now.
[ominous music rises]
[pocket unzips]
Mirtel.
My daughter.
Hi, Alicia. That's a nice name.
-In my free time, I like to…
-I told Alicia…
Also ten years old.
They send funny videos.
-[upbeat music plays from phone]
-I help.
Please. Please, uh…
Don't tell, please.
[upbeat, fun music continues]
[tense music rises]
Is that Said?
In the car.
-[sighs]
-You know them?
No. The other one, um…
I don't know name. Uh…
With Louise… when she's on her own.
-[Lejla] What did he look like?
-[Maksim] Never seen up close.
-[Lejla] Was he there often?
-[Maksim] Yes, often.
Said was at work.
I did nothing.
Only working. Please, no problem.
[tense music fades]
I'd like to welcome you
to this press conference.
I'm Tomas Ness,
the police inspector here in Granås.
Uh, and I am also leading
the ongoing investigation
into the disappearance of Alicia Kamran.
Uh, let's start by
taking questions right away.
[man] Do you see any link between
what's happening now
and the Lejla Ness case 22 years ago?
Uh, no.
Lejla Ness went missing
in Stockholm, not in Granås.
[woman] But your line of enquiry is
that Alicia Kamran has been abducted
against her will?
[Tomas] Yes, that is our line of enquiry.
How will we explain it to Tomas,
do you think?
That's why we want to take
this opportunity to make an appeal.
Contact the police immediately
if you see Alicia
or anything that may be related…
You heard that.
-Tomas is asking for help.
-Yeah. [laughs]
We have set up a hotline.
My colleague over there has a note
of the number that you can call.
Uh, thank you.
[both chuckle]
[Lejla] Look! Look at the hand there.
It looks like a kiss.
Yeah, but what… what use is this to me?
[Lejla] Louise was seeing someone.
You can't quite see
who it is on the image now.
But I thought you might be able to get…
Come on. You two can't go out
on your own like that.
Yeah?
You're making things
very difficult for me.
You went to see Björn. You said I was
the one who sent you there.
And then Kristina.
And now you've apparently been
to see Daniela too.
Yes. And I tried ringing
both you and Jorun.
We were interviewing.
-[Valter sighs]
-This is my job.
Ah, well, sorry if I've put my foot in it
and made you look stupid, but…
I've been in the police force
for 40 years.
And now I'm bringing you
what I think is some key information.
-Could be crucial.
-And don't I get to decide what's crucial?
[Valter] I'd bloody well say it's crucial
if Louise had a lover!
A child has been kidnapped,
and you've been given some information.
So, you can just take this information.
It doesn't matter where it comes from.
Just send that video now. [sighs]
Do it!
Hi.
[sighs deeply]
You know that to get close to a child,
abusers often get contact
through the parents.
-I know that.
-[Lejla] Mm.
But it's also often parents
who are behind the abduction
of their children.
Yes. In fights for custody.
Or if they're trying to shield the child.
But to put the kid's clothes on display
like they were a trophy?
[sighs]
Lejla, I understand
that this is upsetting for you.
You're naturally finding parallels
between Alicia and what happened to you.
But…
Louise was murdered.
That's been confirmed now.
There was a puncture wound
from a needle on her neck.
She was drugged
and lacerations were then administered,
external signs of abuse from what
was probably a violent assault.
There's another thing you don't know,
which is that Louise wanted
to divorce Said.
But he attempted to hide that.
Therefore, he's been lying.
And if we now assume
that she was seeing someone else,
there's an even stronger motive.
Then there's a witness
who saw Said on his way home
after the memorial service,
so he didn't drive
straight to Stockholm like he said.
When you got there, the door was open.
So, either the perpetrator was let in,
or he had a key.
And what Said did in Stockholm, well…
[sighs] …that's a good question.
The phone tracking isn't back yet.
But I will contact the prosecutor, so…
That's what I've been doing
while you two were investigating.
[rock music playing on radio]
[Valter] How are you doing?
I… I don't really know.
When they pour sauce everywhere,
I… I don't like it.
Order something else if you want.
Hmm?
Hmm.
What?
I'm not feeling very well.
Ah.
Do you think it's Said…
who did this?
I have no idea.
He seems to have lied quite a bit.
But if it is him,
he's gone and put Alicia's clothes
right at the entrance to his own mine.
[breathes deeply]
Do you want to go home now,
or can I get myself a coffee?
I'll get one to take away.
-Hey.
-Oh, wow. Hi.
We meet again, at a coffee station.
-[Lejla] Mm.
-[laughs]
They don't have any soup, though.
And how are you doing?
Yeah, well, uh…
[sighs] How are you doing?
Uh, it is… what it is.
Yeah, well, I'm alive.
[Lejla] Mm.
Uh… Um…
I heard, um,
that they're still holding the dad.
-Uh…
-Oh, I'm sorry if I…
I get a bit nerdy with these things,
a bit overly interested.
Uh, so I'm perfectly aware who you are.
I follow your account… on profiling.
And I've read all about your case.
-Oh, okay.
-I know, it's horrible.
But, uh, like I said,
I still can't help finding it
a little bit fascinating.
[sighs]
Oh, forgive me, I never… I'm Martin.
Hi. Lejla.
-Hi.
-Hi.
Well, I just think you're incredible.
Your life in San Diego,
that's, like, my absolute dream life.
-[Lejla chuckles awkwardly]
-Sorry.
But you're… not going out again today?
-Uh, no. No, I don't think so.
-Okay, right.
So, well, uh,
we're going to be heading out soon, so…
-Okay.
-But, uh…
We… Maybe we'll run into each other again
or even meet in the coffee queue.
-Take care.
-Yeah, somewhere. Okay.
[Martin] Hi, there.
[Tomas sighs]
[keypad beeping]
Said, I have orders to detain you
on suspicion of murder.
For having, on March 5th in Granås,
taken the plaintiff Louise Kamran's life.
You are also suspected of kidnapping,
on March 5th in Granås,
having abducted the plaintiff,
Alicia Kamran, opposing her will.
-What murder? What's going on?
-[Tomas] Stand up.
-[Jorun] Come along now.
-Do as she says.
Come with us, Said.
Wait, you've got to explain.
What's happened? What murder?
-You're coming with us.
-What's going on? Explain.
-Calm down now.
-You have to say what's happened.
You're coming with me.
Explain what you mean to me!
Stop! [groans]
[Tomas grunts]
[Tomas] You'll do as I say.
Do you understand?
[both grunt]
Do you understand?
-[Said groans]
-Do you hear me?
Do you understand?!
-[Jorun] Tomas, calm down.
-[both grunt]
[Tomas breathes heavily]
[Tomas panting]
[sighs deeply]
[door slams, echoes]
[heartbeat pulses]
[echoing] Hi.
[distorted ringing]
[Louise] Come here.
[sharp distortion]
[light buzzes and snaps on]
[Louise] Come here.
[heartbeat pulses]
[heartbeat fades]
[knocking at door]
Mm?
[Valter] There's a memorial service
for Louise at church. Are you coming?
I think you'll really regret it
if you don't come to it.
[Lejla] Mm.
[poignant music playing]
[indistinct chattering]
[woman] I heard the police have
been questioning Said.
-[woman 2] Is he a suspect?
-[woman 3] Whatever has happened?
[chatter continues indistinctly]
[man 1] I never really liked
the father very much.
[woman 4 whispers] It's all very strange.
[woman 5] Let's just hope
that they find the girl alive and well.
[hushed chatter continues]
[young Lejla grunts]
[Lejla sobs]
[young Lejla breathes heavily]
[young Lejla screams]
[tense music playing]
[panting, grunts]
[screams]
[breathing heavily]
[woman 1] Hey, sweetheart!l
What's happened? Oh, dear me! Oh!
[woman 2] Oh my goodness.
What shall we do? Has she been hurt?
[woman 1] We have to get help.
-Where did she come from?
-Let's take her to the police station.
[car engine rumbles]
[sighs]
[door slams]
[computer mouse clicks]
INTERVIEW
[Valter] It's so good
that we got to talk to you, Lejla.
[exhales deeply]
Does it feel better now?
[young Lejla] Mm.
[Valter] Now,
I need to ask you some questions.
You just answer if you can,
and only if you want to.
[young Lejla] Mm.
[Valter] That place you talked about,
would you be able to describe
what it looked like inside?
What if you tried to look out?
What did you see then?
Black.
-What was that?
-Black. It was black.
It was so dark.
It was like a big fish tank.
[sighs]
[Valter] Is that you in green
in the middle?
[young Lejla] Mm-hmm.
[Valter] The other three, who are they?
[young Lejla]
The ones who were there before.
[Valter] How do you know that
there were three children before you?
[young Lejla] You could see it
on pictures they had drawn.
[Valter] Mmm.
Did you meet any of them?
No, they were gone.
[sinister music rises]
[Valter] And what have you drawn
underneath there?
Pussy.
This naughty doll that Ecki gave me.
[Valter] Did Ecki used to give you things?
He used to.
When I read to him.
[young Lejla] We were standing there and…
[Valter] Why did you call him Ecki?
[light snaps on]
[young Lejla] The light made that sound
when it was switched on.
[Valter] Did you cut your hair yourself?
[young Lejla] No, it was Ecki who cut it.
When I was going to die.
[light snaps off]
[screams]
Just stop!
[sombre music plays]
No, stop!
-[Valter shushes]
-Stop it!
-[Valter] Come on. Come on. Come here.
-No!
Get off.
[sobs]
-[Valter] It's all okay. It's all right.
-[doorbell rings]
[mouse clicks]
[music fades]
[sighs]
-Hi.
-Hi.
Can we have a chat, Lejla?
Yes.
[Tomas exhales]
[door opens]
[Valter] Hello!
Hup!
Right.
What's the matter?
Um…
Well, there was something…
That, um… That video clip that you, uh…
-[Valter] Yes?
-…gave me.
That's, uh…
I know…
It's, um, me and Louise in the video.
[serious music plays]
[Valter] So, what you're saying now
is that you and Louise…
Yeah.
[Valter] How long has that been going on?
Um… since September.
And you're telling us now?
Yeah.
Louise was getting divorced,
and we were together.
Um, that's not illegal.
-[music fades]
-But you're investigating her murder.
When you were in a relationship
with the victim.
Yeah. No. Yeah.
[Valter] That is just
beyond belief, Tomas.
And you were gonna
keep that under the radar?
I was involved with Louise
who was divorcing her husband.
And then suddenly this, uh…
[sighs] …extreme situation happened,
which I, as a professional, I am, uh…
handling that as delicately as possible.
You fail to see
that you're covering up information
at the same time
you were questioning Said?
Huh?
You have to report it yourself.
-No.
-And if you don't, then it'll be my duty.
You don't have to do a damn thing,
'cause you're retired.
[Tomas sighs]
I can handle this. There's nothing
that can be traced back to me.
Louise's mobile hasn't been found.
All I'm doing is asking you two
to keep this information to yourselves.
I'd be grateful to you both
if you could do that for me.
You know that…
You know that I'm the only one here
qualified for a case like this.
[Valter] But you're not doing your job,
are you?
[scoffs]
I don't know.
How on earth was I so stupid
to get you to come back here
to succeed me?
Why did I do that?
[sighs]
Our old man was right.
You can't be trusted.
You're crazy.
[door slams]
[Tomas] Do you want a whisky?
Uh, no.
[sighs]
[sighs]
Are you still taking those mushrooms?
Yeah.
Every day?
-Yeah, every day.
-Does it work?
You don't get addicted to it?
I do what works best for me, you know?
Mm.
Does anybody else know about you two?
No.
Hmm.
[alarm blares outside]

THE GLASS DOME
[door opens]
[door closes]
Did you come into my room last night?
The window was wide open.
Please don't come into my room
when I'm asleep.
[Valter] I haven't been in your room.
Perhaps the catch is broken.
Look what I found outside.
Two out in the garden,
and this one floundering on the doorstep.
-They must have eaten something bad.
-So, are you leaving them there?
No, it was just so you could see.
-Did you book a new flight?
-Not yet.
So, you could come with me
and help with Ann-Marie's grave?
I'm going out. To the search.
-You were out until 4:30 this morning.
-I know.
You should get some rest.
Have you eaten at all?
-[Lejla] No.
-Well, then have some food.
Is the place cordoned off
where they found Alicia's clothes?
I expect so.
I think I want to go and see it.
And do what?
Take a look at the place.
I want to see it.
You have to come with me
so they'll let me through.
We'll go by the grave on the way home.
[indistinct chatter]
[Aino] Can I get you anything at all?
A sandwich or something?
No, thank you.
Tomas!
[Tomas sighs]
I need to know what's happening.
[sighs]
-No one's allowed to talk about the inves…
-Why do you have Said?
Uh…
Said is the victim's next of kin.
-So, that's why he's being held.
-That's inhumane, isn't it?
So, he has to just sit in there
for hours on end after what happened?
I want to take him home now.
Hmm. But you can't.
Hmm. This is not what Valter would do.
He would never keep things from me.
-[Tomas] I think you should go home, hmm?
-Oh, no. I am staying.
[knocking at door]
This is for you.
Ah. Thanks.
They're saying the Internet's too slow.
What shall I do? I already rang Sören,
but he's with the search.
He won't be here till late this afternoon.
And, uh…
There's dead birds everywhere.
-We're getting calls about it.
-Wh… What is that?
I don't know who to report it to.
-The Environment Agency, or…
-Uh…
-Yes, or I don't know. Let me go and…
-Can I try one of those?
-Uh, yeah, for sure.
-Thanks.
[keypad beeping]
[door opens]
Sorry for the delay.
Ah, great. I see you got some coffee.
[Tomas] So, it's 9:22 am.
Let's, uh, continue our chat, yeah?
I have a question.
How long will this all take?
I want to be out there searching.
Mm. Of course.
I just had
a few more questions… about Louise.
How were things between you two?
Fine, were good.
Or what do you mean?
[Tomas] You seem very calm and collected
for someone who has just lost his wife.
But… What?
You were happy as a couple
and… you loved each other?
You and Louise?
Uh-huh.
There are several people
who told us that, um…
Well, that you two weren't getting along
at the memorial service.
-What can you say about that?
-[inhales, clicks tongue]
Yeah, well, uh…
She wasn't very happy…
'cause I was going to Stockholm.
I had to work.
And that was a very big thing for her.
And… we had a fight about it.
Did you fight often?
[sighs] A bit.
-About what?
-[sniffs]
I don't know.
General stuff. Normal things.
Why are you lying to me?
Wh… What do you mean?
Louise filed for divorce.
And only Louise signed the papers.
But there's a six-month waiting period
that runs out next week.
[tense music playing]
And what do you mean by that?
That this has something
to do with her killing herself, or what?
I don't get it.
She wasn't happy here.
She felt we should've moved to the city.
Obviously, she was angry with me for that.
So, she sent off that.
She'd do stuff like that sometimes.
So, you're telling us
Louise had filed for divorce before?
No.
But this time she did and…
um, she chose to go ahead?
Is that what you mean?
Yeah, I meant that.
[sighs] It certainly looks like
she wanted a divorce.
But you didn't.
And now Louise is dead,
Alicia's nowhere to be found.
It all seems very odd
when you're sat there lying to us.
I'm waiting for the autopsy report,
and we will treat your house
as a suspected crime scene.
[camera shutter clicks]
HAVE YOU SEEN ALICIA?
[pop music playing on radio]
With you by my side
I can do anything ♪
[Björn] What's all this? [chuckles]
-[Valter] Oh, hi there.
-[Björn] It's been a while.
-Good to see you.
-[Valter] Yes, it's been a while.
-[Björn] Yes, it has.
-[Valter] Yeah. How are you?
-[Björn] Good.
-[Valter] Yeah?
[Björn] Did they finally managed
to recruit you to the mine?
-[Valter] No.
-Okay.
Tomas wanted me to come down here
and, uh… take a look at the place, yeah.
Yeah, they just started.
It's awful. This is Lejla.
[Björn] Hi.
-[Valter] All right.
-Ah…
There you go. Go on.
Is there anything else, or is this it?
[Björn] No, that's it.
Is she allowed
to be walking around in there?
[Valter] Yeah. I'll keep an eye on her.
-[Björn] Right. Go careful.
-Okay? Yeah.
They're sending a message here.
Someone is saying, "I have
complete control of this situation".
Someone has chosen Alicia, targeted her.
And really want the police to know that.
[Valter] Tomas needs to hear this.
[heartbeat pulses]
[sharp distortion]
[mobile phone vibrates]
NATIONAL BOARD OF FORENSIC MEDICINE
[gloomy music playing]
[Valter] I'm just going
to have a quick chat with…
[sighs]
[door closes]
Thank you.
Thanks for calling.
I could have stayed there
all day if you hadn't.
[Valter] Haven't they told you anything?
No, and… they've still got Said.
-[Lejla] Kristina.
-Yes?
So, um…
Alicia…
Um, is there anyone outside of her family
who Alicia's had contact with?
Anyone she talked about
or mentioned in any way?
-[Kristina] Uh…
-Anyone who comes to mind.
Someone that's been kind to her
or given her attention in any way?
[Kristina sighs]
[woman] That builder, maybe?
[Valter] What builder?
They had workmen in last autumn
to repair part of the roof, and…
one of Daniela's guys
was very fond of Alicia, wasn't he?
-But fond of her how, exactly?
-He just… was very happy with her.
Mm-hmm.
Mm.
I saw them together a few times
when I was over there.
And they were filming
some videos on his phone.
What were they filming?
Do you think he was filming her?
[exhales] I've no idea.
[tense music rises]
[dial tone beeps]
[sighs] Great.
Jorun's not answering either.
Someone should answer,
shouldn't they? Huh?
I mean, it's a bloody police station.
Maybe can't you and I go
and talk to that builder?
[Valter] It's not a very nice place.
[Lejla] We might be running out of time.
Mm.
[serious string music playing]
WELCOME TO GRANÅS COTTAGES
[Valter] Daniela?
[dog barking]
[Valter] Hi, Dani.
How are things?
We wanted to talk
to one of your men working here.
He did a job a while ago
at Said and Louise Kamran's place.
And why do you want to talk to him?
You've retired, haven't you?
Well, I help out from time to time,
you know? Just a little side gig.
It's a chance to earn good money, as long
as no one starts digging around, right?
[Daniela sighs] Oh.
Another one.
For Christ's sake.
[indistinct chatter]
Where is Maksim?
[knocking at door]
[Daniela] Maksim!
-[kicks door]
-Maksim!
They want to talk to you.
No.
Yes.
Asked you for a job.
[Lejla] Hi.
[door closes]
What do you want?
You know the language, then?
A little.
So, uh…
Uh, you worked before
at Louise and Said's house?
Yeah, sometimes.
Do you know about what happened?
Louise is dead.
And their daughter is missing.
Do you understand me?
I know that.
[Lejla] Okay.
-Police?
-[Lejla] No, but close friends.
Do you like Alicia?
Yeah.
Did you film her?
Uh…
No problem.
If you did film Alicia,
then I want to see those videos.
Now.
[ominous music rises]
[pocket unzips]
Mirtel.
My daughter.
Hi, Alicia. That's a nice name.
-In my free time, I like to…
-I told Alicia…
Also ten years old.
They send funny videos.
-[upbeat music plays from phone]
-I help.
Please. Please, uh…
Don't tell, please.
[upbeat, fun music continues]
[tense music rises]
Is that Said?
In the car.
-[sighs]
-You know them?
No. The other one, um…
I don't know name. Uh…
With Louise… when she's on her own.
-[Lejla] What did he look like?
-[Maksim] Never seen up close.
-[Lejla] Was he there often?
-[Maksim] Yes, often.
Said was at work.
I did nothing.
Only working. Please, no problem.
[tense music fades]
I'd like to welcome you
to this press conference.
I'm Tomas Ness,
the police inspector here in Granås.
Uh, and I am also leading
the ongoing investigation
into the disappearance of Alicia Kamran.
Uh, let's start by
taking questions right away.
[man] Do you see any link between
what's happening now
and the Lejla Ness case 22 years ago?
Uh, no.
Lejla Ness went missing
in Stockholm, not in Granås.
[woman] But your line of enquiry is
that Alicia Kamran has been abducted
against her will?
[Tomas] Yes, that is our line of enquiry.
How will we explain it to Tomas,
do you think?
That's why we want to take
this opportunity to make an appeal.
Contact the police immediately
if you see Alicia
or anything that may be related…
You heard that.
-Tomas is asking for help.
-Yeah. [laughs]
We have set up a hotline.
My colleague over there has a note
of the number that you can call.
Uh, thank you.
[both chuckle]
[Lejla] Look! Look at the hand there.
It looks like a kiss.
Yeah, but what… what use is this to me?
[Lejla] Louise was seeing someone.
You can't quite see
who it is on the image now.
But I thought you might be able to get…
Come on. You two can't go out
on your own like that.
Yeah?
You're making things
very difficult for me.
You went to see Björn. You said I was
the one who sent you there.
And then Kristina.
And now you've apparently been
to see Daniela too.
Yes. And I tried ringing
both you and Jorun.
We were interviewing.
-[Valter sighs]
-This is my job.
Ah, well, sorry if I've put my foot in it
and made you look stupid, but…
I've been in the police force
for 40 years.
And now I'm bringing you
what I think is some key information.
-Could be crucial.
-And don't I get to decide what's crucial?
[Valter] I'd bloody well say it's crucial
if Louise had a lover!
A child has been kidnapped,
and you've been given some information.
So, you can just take this information.
It doesn't matter where it comes from.
Just send that video now. [sighs]
Do it!
Hi.
[sighs deeply]
You know that to get close to a child,
abusers often get contact
through the parents.
-I know that.
-[Lejla] Mm.
But it's also often parents
who are behind the abduction
of their children.
Yes. In fights for custody.
Or if they're trying to shield the child.
But to put the kid's clothes on display
like they were a trophy?
[sighs]
Lejla, I understand
that this is upsetting for you.
You're naturally finding parallels
between Alicia and what happened to you.
But…
Louise was murdered.
That's been confirmed now.
There was a puncture wound
from a needle on her neck.
She was drugged
and lacerations were then administered,
external signs of abuse from what
was probably a violent assault.
There's another thing you don't know,
which is that Louise wanted
to divorce Said.
But he attempted to hide that.
Therefore, he's been lying.
And if we now assume
that she was seeing someone else,
there's an even stronger motive.
Then there's a witness
who saw Said on his way home
after the memorial service,
so he didn't drive
straight to Stockholm like he said.
When you got there, the door was open.
So, either the perpetrator was let in,
or he had a key.
And what Said did in Stockholm, well…
[sighs] …that's a good question.
The phone tracking isn't back yet.
But I will contact the prosecutor, so…
That's what I've been doing
while you two were investigating.
[rock music playing on radio]
[Valter] How are you doing?
I… I don't really know.
When they pour sauce everywhere,
I… I don't like it.
Order something else if you want.
Hmm?
Hmm.
What?
I'm not feeling very well.
Ah.
Do you think it's Said…
who did this?
I have no idea.
He seems to have lied quite a bit.
But if it is him,
he's gone and put Alicia's clothes
right at the entrance to his own mine.
[breathes deeply]
Do you want to go home now,
or can I get myself a coffee?
I'll get one to take away.
-Hey.
-Oh, wow. Hi.
We meet again, at a coffee station.
-[Lejla] Mm.
-[laughs]
They don't have any soup, though.
And how are you doing?
Yeah, well, uh…
[sighs] How are you doing?
Uh, it is… what it is.
Yeah, well, I'm alive.
[Lejla] Mm.
Uh… Um…
I heard, um,
that they're still holding the dad.
-Uh…
-Oh, I'm sorry if I…
I get a bit nerdy with these things,
a bit overly interested.
Uh, so I'm perfectly aware who you are.
I follow your account… on profiling.
And I've read all about your case.
-Oh, okay.
-I know, it's horrible.
But, uh, like I said,
I still can't help finding it
a little bit fascinating.
[sighs]
Oh, forgive me, I never… I'm Martin.
Hi. Lejla.
-Hi.
-Hi.
Well, I just think you're incredible.
Your life in San Diego,
that's, like, my absolute dream life.
-[Lejla chuckles awkwardly]
-Sorry.
But you're… not going out again today?
-Uh, no. No, I don't think so.
-Okay, right.
So, well, uh,
we're going to be heading out soon, so…
-Okay.
-But, uh…
We… Maybe we'll run into each other again
or even meet in the coffee queue.
-Take care.
-Yeah, somewhere. Okay.
[Martin] Hi, there.
[Tomas sighs]
[keypad beeping]
Said, I have orders to detain you
on suspicion of murder.
For having, on March 5th in Granås,
taken the plaintiff Louise Kamran's life.
You are also suspected of kidnapping,
on March 5th in Granås,
having abducted the plaintiff,
Alicia Kamran, opposing her will.
-What murder? What's going on?
-[Tomas] Stand up.
-[Jorun] Come along now.
-Do as she says.
Come with us, Said.
Wait, you've got to explain.
What's happened? What murder?
-You're coming with us.
-What's going on? Explain.
-Calm down now.
-You have to say what's happened.
You're coming with me.
Explain what you mean to me!
Stop! [groans]
[Tomas grunts]
[Tomas] You'll do as I say.
Do you understand?
[both grunt]
Do you understand?
-[Said groans]
-Do you hear me?
Do you understand?!
-[Jorun] Tomas, calm down.
-[both grunt]
[Tomas breathes heavily]
[Tomas panting]
[sighs deeply]
[door slams, echoes]
[heartbeat pulses]
[echoing] Hi.
[distorted ringing]
[Louise] Come here.
[sharp distortion]
[light buzzes and snaps on]
[Louise] Come here.
[heartbeat pulses]
[heartbeat fades]
[knocking at door]
Mm?
[Valter] There's a memorial service
for Louise at church. Are you coming?
I think you'll really regret it
if you don't come to it.
[Lejla] Mm.
[poignant music playing]
[indistinct chattering]
[woman] I heard the police have
been questioning Said.
-[woman 2] Is he a suspect?
-[woman 3] Whatever has happened?
[chatter continues indistinctly]
[man 1] I never really liked
the father very much.
[woman 4 whispers] It's all very strange.
[woman 5] Let's just hope
that they find the girl alive and well.
[hushed chatter continues]
[young Lejla grunts]
[Lejla sobs]
[young Lejla breathes heavily]
[young Lejla screams]
[tense music playing]
[panting, grunts]
[screams]
[breathing heavily]
[woman 1] Hey, sweetheart!l
What's happened? Oh, dear me! Oh!
[woman 2] Oh my goodness.
What shall we do? Has she been hurt?
[woman 1] We have to get help.
-Where did she come from?
-Let's take her to the police station.
[car engine rumbles]

INTERVIEW
[Valter] It's so good
that we got to talk to you, Lejla.
[exhales deeply]
Does it feel better now?
[young Lejla] Mm.
[Valter] Now,
I need to ask you some questions.
You just answer if you can,
and only if you want to.
[young Lejla] Mm.
[Valter] That place you talked about,
would you be able to describe
what it looked like inside?
What if you tried to look out?
What did you see then?
Black.
-What was that?
-Black. It was black.
It was so dark.
It was like a big fish tank.
[sighs]
[Valter] Is that you in green
in the middle?
[young Lejla] Mm-hmm.
[Valter] The other three, who are they?
[young Lejla]
The ones who were there before.
[Valter] How do you know that
there were three children before you?
[young Lejla] You could see it
on pictures they had drawn.
[Valter] Mmm.
Did you meet any of them?
No, they were gone.
[sinister music rises]
[Valter] And what have you drawn
underneath there?
Pussy.
This naughty doll that Ecki gave me.
[Valter] Did Ecki used to give you things?
He used to.
When I read to him.
[young Lejla] We were standing there and…
[Valter] Why did you call him Ecki?
[light snaps on]
[young Lejla] The light made that sound
when it was switched on.
[Valter] Did you cut your hair yourself?
[young Lejla] No, it was Ecki who cut it.
When I was going to die.
[light snaps off]
[screams]
Just stop!
[sombre music plays]
No, stop!
-[Valter shushes]
-Stop it!
-[Valter] Come on. Come on. Come here.
-No!
Get off.
[sobs]
-[Valter] It's all okay. It's all right.
-[doorbell rings]
[mouse clicks]
[music fades]
[sighs]
-Hi.
-Hi.
Can we have a chat, Lejla?
Yes.
[Tomas exhales]
[door opens]
[Valter] Hello!
Hup!
Right.
What's the matter?
Um…
Well, there was something…
That, um… That video clip that you, uh…
-[Valter] Yes?
-…gave me.
That's, uh…
I know…
It's, um, me and Louise in the video.
[serious music plays]
[Valter] So, what you're saying now
is that you and Louise…
Yeah.
[Valter] How long has that been going on?
Um… since September.
And you're telling us now?
Yeah.
Louise was getting divorced,
and we were together.
Um, that's not illegal.
-[music fades]
-But you're investigating her murder.
When you were in a relationship
with the victim.
Yeah. No. Yeah.
[Valter] That is just
beyond belief, Tomas.
And you were gonna
keep that under the radar?
I was involved with Louise
who was divorcing her husband.
And then suddenly this, uh…
[sighs] …extreme situation happened,
which I, as a professional, I am, uh…
handling that as delicately as possible.
You fail to see
that you're covering up information
at the same time
you were questioning Said?
Huh?
You have to report it yourself.
-No.
-And if you don't, then it'll be my duty.
You don't have to do a damn thing,
'cause you're retired.
[Tomas sighs]
I can handle this. There's nothing
that can be traced back to me.
Louise's mobile hasn't been found.
All I'm doing is asking you two
to keep this information to yourselves.
I'd be grateful to you both
if you could do that for me.
You know that…
You know that I'm the only one here
qualified for a case like this.
[Valter] But you're not doing your job,
are you?
[scoffs]
I don't know.
How on earth was I so stupid
to get you to come back here
to succeed me?
Why did I do that?
[sighs]
Our old man was right.
You can't be trusted.
You're crazy.
[door slams]
[Tomas] Do you want a whisky?
Uh, no.
[sighs]
[sighs]
Are you still taking those mushrooms?
Yeah.
Every day?
-Yeah, every day.
-Does it work?
You don't get addicted to it?
I do what works best for me, you know?
Mm.
Does anybody else know about you two?
No.
Hmm.
