Episode 3

1
Who is it that wants to hurt me?
Why start digging up the past?
What about Bianca and her feelings,
who's thinking about that?
And who would it help?
It won't make any difference to Armande.
She's dead.
That bodyguard we had
that time in Antwerp
What was his name?
Theo.
Yes, you mean Theo Janke.
- Whatever happened to him?
He's still on the books.
- I need to talk to him.
OK.
Get me Theo Janke.
Now.
Everything OK, son?
- Fine, sir.
That's how it should be.
My God, you scared me.
- That door is getting on my nerves.
We have to oil it.
I can hear your mom is home.
Theo
I bet tomorrow she'll say
she didn't sleep a wink all night.
I've found the coolest shoes online.
Have you?
- May I?
OK.
- You're the best!
OK, I have to do something.
- OK.
Hi.
- Are you still in bed?
No.
- I'm sorry if I woke you up.
I hope it's important.
Natascha, what do you want?
Maria's credit card has been used
after she was killed. Last night online.
Five pairs of high-heeled shoes,
size 36, quite expensive.
Delivery address Theo Janke. That
truck driver from the service station.
I've just emailed you the details.
What do we do?
I'll call you back.
Good morning.
Hi.
- Hi. Can we talk?
Yeah, of course, yeah
What time is it?
I couldn't sleep. It just keeps running
around in circles in my head.
Look. These three girls
They all witnessed Loukauskis murdering
Armande, 6 years ago.
So, logically, he should be the one
who ordered their killings,
because they started talking
to Jean-Louis.
But we can't use the video testimony
because they are all dead.
But I just don't buy it. The man is
hungry for public respectability,
his daughter is about to marry into
German nobility with a huge wedding.
Sorry, you wanted to
- Yeah.
It's about Theo Janke. That guy.
He turned himself in to the police
after Maria's murder
because he knew we'd find his DNA
in her condom bin.
I've just found out that he also stole
Maria's credit card.
So?
- So it matters.
Because I asked him if he went back
to the trailer later
and he categorically answered no.
In that interview we've got on film,
the one Jean-Louis made with Maria
Yeah, yeah, let me find it. It's
This one, you mean?
- Yeah.
There it is.
He lied. He came back
after Jean-Louis had left.
And he stole her credit card.
Hi.
Hello, Jackie.
- Listen
Arrest Theo Janke for
the murder of Maria Schmidt-Gabler.
OK, we'll go and bring him in.
Theo!
Theo!
Just a moment.
- No, now!
You stole Maria's credit card?
I told you, it really pisses me off
when you go through my stuff.
Can't you think with your brain
instead of your cock for once?
Maria didn't pay. That's my security.
Do I look like a goddamn charity?
- Maria is Iris Gabler's daughter.
Yes, so?
- She's also a dead hooker.
The pigs will keep pestering us.
I'll simply cut it up, OK?
- It's too late.
Hey. Easy!
- I found the card by madam's computer.
What was it doing there?
There were these extremely cool shoes
with very high heels.
You bought the shoes
with this card?
Yes, but only five pairs.
You said it was OK.
You gave her permission to do so?
Theo!
You're not taking my car.
Give me the key!
Are you serious?
- I'm going to the market.
Are you out of your mind?
- Give it to me!
Fuck you, cunt!
- You too.
Hello. Would you like a snack
or something to drink?
Yes, coffee, please.
Any news on Theo Janke?
- No, not yet.
Good morning, madam.
You would think that journalists today
are all stupid and illiterate.
How can someone be a sex addict and
a serial killer and still be innocent?
Will you be eating at home today, madam?
Yes.
Bye, madam.
Bye.
This is the voicemail of
Examining Magistrate Stéphane Pernel.
Please leave your message
and I will call you back. Thank you.
This is Alicia Verbeek, again.
I've been trying to get hold of you.
Could you please call me back?
Thank you.
Sorry. It's just
I'm trying to reach my boss.
My boss led the investigation into
Armande's murder, six years ago.
I don't know what to believe. There are
things happening, strange coincidences,
like delays or the forensic reports
that went missing,
the ones I spoke to you about,
that completely exonerated Jean-Louis.
And, at first, I put it down
to incompetence
then I saw this.
The Film Festival in Cannes,
my boss and Loukauskis.
And his ex-wife, Dahlia.
That's a serious accusation, Alicia.
- But it makes sense.
What do I do if my boss was bought
and paid for by Loukauskis?
If she deleted the report,
wouldn't it show up in the files?
But it's an investigation
you have to carry out yourself.
You couldn't entrust it to anyone else
in the department.
I know.
Have you ever mentioned Max
to your boss?
My undercover agent.
No.
- Not even by accident?
No, of course not.
- Are you sure?
I wouldn't worry. She's cool.
There are only four people on the BKA
who know Max's real identity.
I've been his contact person so far,
but that won't work anymore
now that I'm also this close
to Loukauskis.
Yeah, yeah, obviously.
Could I persuade you to be
his temporary contact person?
Of course.
- Good.
If Max wants to get in touch,
he'll call or text,
asking whether you still have 400 cars
available for sale in Russia.
You confirm that you do and then
he'll suggest a time and place.
OK.
That's the scam Loukauskis believes
Max makes his money with,
skimming VAT off fictitious deals
with countries outside the EU.
Jackie, it says "go to gate" for Berlin.
Hello?
No, that's out of the question.
No, can we talk about it
when I get home?
I'm in Salzburg and my flight is
about to leave OK.
Have you ever had a dog?
- Me? Yeah.
A, what's it called, a street dog.
Yeah, a mongrel.
A really nice one.
She actually took better care of me
and my sister than my mother did.
And then she died of cancer.
- Your mother?
The dog.
- OK
Why do you ask?
It's my daughter Lilli's
seventh birthday tomorrow.
And the only thing she really wants
is a dog.
What does your husband say?
That I'm the boss.
- You have a daughter who's seven?
Yeah.
- Seven years old
That's a big day.
- Yeah, it is. So, guys, see you.
Yeah, bye.
- Bye.
Have a safe flight.
- Yeah, thank you.
Have you worked together before?
Yeah, yeah.
Many years ago in New York.
CAN YOU COME ONLINE?
Frank wants to come online.
- OK.
Hi, Frank.
Is there any news?
There certainly isn't any news from Mrs
Pernel. She has missed two appointments.
That's not her style.
- Definitely isn't.
And Kit is analyzing the hard drive
of Jean-Louis's computer.
Hi, Kit.
- Hi.
What happened to your eye?
I came off my bicycle
and got the handlebar right in my eye.
It looks worse than it is.
OK, so it all begins in Berlin.
An hour after Jean-Louis visits Maria
in the trailer,
his computer is tracked and after that
he was followed all the way to Antwerp.
Greta is killed less than one hour
after Jean-Louis shared the information
with his computer.
Yeah, and the same thing happens
in Copenhagen
and on the whole trip down to Austria,
they follow along the whole way.
OK, thank you.
Have you arrested Theo Janke?
- No.
What do you mean, no?
- He was no longer there.
But I think I now know
why he lied to you
when he said
he didn't go back to see Maria.
He didn't want to admit
he was her pimp.
He has three other girls working
for him. Each one in their own trailer.
Corinna, Ebele, Hilde,
they are hanging up here.
Hanging up?
- Yes. Photos on the wall.
Every night he collects the money
the girls have earned.
He did it last Thursday too.
Maria, 362 euros.
It was a good day, 16 clients.
And he was also her dealer.
She owed him 5,000 euros, maybe
that was why he took her credit card.
Why would he kill her
before she has paid her debt?
What are we doing here?
It's possible it wasn't him.
Do we proceed with the arrest warrant?
What else have you found?
250 grams of cocaine,
a 9 machine gun,
but it's not the murder weapon,
ammunition, and quite a lot of money.
How did he get back to Maria's?
You checked that he delivered
the truck to the hauler.
The tachometer.
- Yes. He and the wife have a small van,
she does catering,
maybe as a way of laundering money.
When he has no time, she collects
the money from the girls,
according to his accounts.
What does his wife say?
- Nothing at all.
Bring her in. As for the car, this van,
take the whole thing apart.
OK.
Natascha? We found this.
- Thanks.
I don't like this.
Your boss?
- Yeah.
Now she has also missed a very important
meeting at the Ministry of Justice.
You can let me out here,
it'll be faster.
OK.
Thank you.
See you later, bye.
Good luck.
Bambi, in your basket. Go on!
I'll drive.
Will you be OK by yourself?
- Yes.
Shall I leave the door open?
- No, it's OK.
It's OK, it's OK.
Sorry. Just breathe. Are you OK?
I'm here.
I'm here.
Thanks.
We gave him something to calm him down.
You won't be able to speak to him now.
Can you give him this
when he wakes up, please?
If I were you, I'd come back tomorrow.
- I'll wait.
Bambi, you're not coming.
There are coffee and doughnuts there.
You probably didn't have breakfast.
Morning, Gunther.
- Morning.
How is it going?
The car was professionally cleaned.
Particularly on the inside.
That means you can check it
particularly well.
Who picked it up from the car wash?
- Hold on.
Even the windshield has been wiped off
on the inside. But I have struck gold.
Here
And here.
Theo Janke.
Don't look like that.
It doesn't mean anything.
Those brushes in car washes
can't get in everywhere.
Especially not behind an inwards facing
door handle where fingertips touch it.
Theo Janke again.
And then this here.
This could be brain tissue. Could be
And it could mean
that he shot her first,
as traces of gunpowder have been found
in the fingerprints. Then he got this.
It was in the back of the car.
Also cleaned.
Probably in Maria's trailer.
We found small bone fragments in the
wastewater tank under the kitchen sink.
When will you know
if that tissue is brain tissue?
By the end of the day.
Fine.
Thanks in advance.
You're crazy, bothering her now.
How well do you know her?
- What kind of a question is that?
I don't know her.
Turn left here. Here.
See? She just took a day off.
- I just need to talk to her a moment.
What about?
- You stay here.
Hello, my name is Alicia Verbeek.
Is Mrs Pernel home?
No, she has gone to Antwerp.
To her work.
Are you sure? I can see her coat.
- Can you?
Her fur coat.
She only wears that when
Frank, what's going on?
- Hello, Edith.
I don't understand.
Her boots are also gone.
She never takes them to the city,
she only wears those when walking Bambi.
Could I use the leash? Bambi, you say?
- Yes.
Bambi, come here.
Have you got a scarf?
Something of hers, something that
smells of her? Bambi, come here.
Look. Smell this, smell this!
Come on.
Calm down, calm down.
Call an ambulance!
Well, it's bad but she's alive so
They'll have to find out what she took
first and then what the antidote is.
Did she have a letter on her?
No.
Do you know, if I worked
for the State Security
with someone as high ranking
as Mrs Pernel,
I'd probably clean up the house
before letting in the regular police.
She's waking up, Harald
I mean the dog. I have to go, bye.
And now?
Well, we will call you
as soon as we have more news.
The vet is bringing Bambi back. We had
to give him something to calm him down.
Maybe you could get him something nice
to eat for when he wakes up.
Yes, OK.
Gemma Jonker. State Security.
Gemma Jonker. State Security.
Alicia Verbeek, Inspector, Homicide.
I found these.
Will you call the hospital or shall I?
They need to know how to treat her.
We will.
- OK, great. I can do it too. No?
No. Thank you.
- OK, perfect. Bye.
Bambi!
Harald Bjørn, Danish police.
Thank you.
Would you mind?
Honestly, what was your plan?
Plan?
Interviewing Maria, Greta and Vaida.
I thought that was obvious.
- Not quite.
I wanted to give my material
to the police
in exchange for witness protection
for the girls.
And yes, I managed to talk them
into being witnesses.
But why now? Why not years ago,
when it all happened?
I'm dying.
I have cancer.
What went through your head when you saw
Theo Janke come out of Maria's trailer?
How do you know I saw him?
He saw you.
I guess he did.
Janke was Loukauskis' bodyguard
at the time.
He supplied all of us
with coke, amphetamine
He could get anything.
- Really?
I'm writing a book about Loukauskis.
He was so open, you know
And I was impressed by the guy.
The poor little boy from Vilnius who now
owned the largest yacht in the harbor.
I followed him closely.
I got to know him.
His business.
If he found out
the girls were going to testify,
I'm not surprised he had them killed.
But the method
the perverse, meticulous
repetition
That's not Loukauskis.
- Who then?
Someone who wants to hurt him
and help him as well.
Hurt him by opening up the old case
and help him by making sure
the girls can't testify.
Janke?
No.
He doesn't have the guts.
- He's wanted for Maria's murder.
When I saw Janke that night
coming out of the trailer,
I should have just gotten
the fuck out of there.
But I couldn't stop myself, I had
finally found Marie, Greta, Vaida.
I'm sorry. I think he needs to rest now.
Thank you.
Your phone is ringing.
You just called.
OK. Text me the address.
Two things, God.
Don't let me die
without absolution.
Let me know who's out to kill me.
Hello. Good to see you.
- Good to see you.
Does he make you nervous?
How many people are invited
to the wedding?
Any news about Janke?
- Yes, I think I know where he's hiding.
What are you waiting for?
- So I can get away with it.
What do you think?
Sorry.
I've got to warn you. Your ex is here.
What are you doing here?
Visiting the church
our daughter is getting married in.
Then take a good look around.
You're not coming to the wedding.
I'm sure you can afford an extra person.
- Don't you get it?
Your daughter doesn't want to see you.
Especially not at her wedding!
Yes?
I wondered if you still had
400 cars for sale in Russia.
Yes, I do.
Can you make it to Berlin tonight?
I think that could be arranged, yes.
I'll text you the info.
He was fumbling with my phone earlier.
- Was he?
There's something about him
I want to check out.
Listen, sweetie,
I have to go to Berlin tonight.
OK.
Are you sure?
- Yes, of course. I'll see you tomorrow.
Are you going to a hotel
or will you stay with your colleague?
My colleague?
- Yes, that Jackie.
If you were going
to work till late.
I don't think so.
Why would I?
Enjoy it.
I don't know.
- Liv, why would I?
Right, why would you?
- Liv?
OK. I'll see you tomorrow.
- Liv?
Bye.
Harald speaking.
- Hi, Harald. This is Alicia.
I can't stop thinking about Pernel.
Did I push her too far?
Don't think like that.
It's not your fault, is it?
She's going to make it.
They pumped out her stomach.
Yeah, well, that's good. Isn't it?
I'd like to go through her letter with
you, there's some information in there.
Can we maybe meet up later?
I'm going to make a quick stop at
my mother's now, but maybe afterwards.
I'm flying to Berlin in a couple of
hours, but yeah, yeah, sure.
You know, you've probably just made
a great career move.
How come?
Mrs Pernel will certainly
always be in your debt.
Why's that?
Because you made sure the State Security
didn't get to the letter first.
What do you mean, Harald?
I'm going to have to call you back, OK?
Fi? Are you OK?
Hi.
- I've bought the two of you some food.
Now don't get angry, OK?
Don't get angry.
I've had enough of this.
Come on, Alicia. It's not that bad.
- It is bad.
Mom! She's leaving! Alicia is leaving!
Yes! I'm leaving!
I'm running away from the two of you.
I am sick I'm sick.
I'm not kidding. I'm going to die.
Alicia
I'll ask you again. Did you go back
to Maria's trailer afterwards?
Of course I didn't go back.
Are you quite certain?
- Yes.
Besides, she wasn't exactly one of
those girls that made you want more.
Take a look.
Besides, she wasn't exactly one of
those girls that made you want more.
Look at his eyes.
He is sad.
I don't think he killed her.
I just wanted to say
I've finished for the day.
And?
- It was brain tissue. Maria's.
Then it's him.
Thank you, have a nice evening.
Hi, it's Jackie. I need a public
defender. Yes, right away. Thanks.
Come on, get some sleep.
You love me, don't you?
- Come on.
It can't go on like this.
Tomorrow.
Promise?
OK.
I'll take half a day off tomorrow and
we'll go to the doctor together. OK?
Come on.
You have to get some sleep. OK? Right.
- Yeah.
Watch out.
I promise.
Tomorrow.
Hey, move it.
Don't touch me!
Thanks.
Please sit down.
Who says I want to talk to you?
- I do.
You look nice like that. Sit down!
Your public defender, Dr. Nemetz.
These complete idiots claim
Theo killed Maria Gabler.
Why?
- Because she infected him with HIV.
And me too.
- Maria wasn't HIV positive.
Then why would he have killed her?
- Yes, why?
She was making good money for you.
Where is he?
I have no idea.
But I recently bought a flat for Lulu.
Theo?
- What the hell were you thinking?
What's the matter with you?
- Sorry.
You need your medication.
What if someone followed you?
- Chill. No one did.
And
Two joints.
I killed her.
Who?
Maria.
I don't want to know.
- You have to.
I need to tell someone about it.
She's running on a loop up here.
I had no choice.
I had to call Bruno and tell him
this fucking journalist had found her.
Bruno threatened me. He said
if I didn't do it, you'd be next.
You have no idea what bastards they are.
They trade in human beings, for real.
You would just disappear.
- I don't want to know!
It's the crying
I can't get out of my head.
Dammit! Dammit!
Lulu!
Janke, I can hear you.
Why did you throw Lulu down the stairs?
I didn't. She fell.
Don't worry, she's going to make it.
Look, I'm sorry. It was the card.
Lulu accidentally took it to
to buy some
Well, I mean I gave her permission,
but but not with that card.
Bruno?
Police!
