Outlier (2020) s01e04 Episode Script

1
Hei.
We've found Tina.
At Moholt Farm.
Was she murdered?
It would appear that's the case.
What happens now?
There will be a municipal funeral.
The police are also continuing
the investigation.
Continuing?
They never started, did they?
I've been thinking a lot
about Tina since you were here.
It's as if she never existed.
Does no one else remember her?
Is no one else wondering where she is?
Can a person just be forgotten?
She won't be forgotten.
I'll make sure of that.
The fact that she died Was killed.
It won't be in vain, so that
it doesn't happen again to anyone else.
That the police never again ignore tips.
We're gonna find that bastard.
I promise you that.
That was quite some speech.
-Well, you weren't saying anything.
-You don't need to trample on the police
-No?
-And you can't say that we'll find him.
-You can't promise that.
-You don't think we'll find him?
Tina and Sofie were killed
using two very different methods
Tina was subjected to severe violence,
while Sofie barely had
any defensive injuries.
You can't be certain that
it's the same perpetrator.
The pathologist was in doubt.
In doubt, yes.
He never concluded.
There are over ten years
between the cases, Maja.
That's what makes it interesting!
A perpetrator is not static.
Everything develops.
He's not the same as
he was fifteen years ago.
He develops over time.
Learns from his mistakes.
Practices, improves.
-You talk about it like it's a sport.
-It is a sport. For him.
No, come on, Maja. With that logic,
you could connect absolutely every case.
You're constantly blocking me! Your
basically think in a non-creative way.
Okay.
Okay.
If you can just put your fucking
scepticism to the side for a moment.
What are the similarities
between the two cases?
-And don't block.
-I'm not blocking!
So say what's on your mind then!
And be constructive.
I don't need you to hold me back.
I can see there's something.
Out with it.
There's just one thing
I don't understand.
-Yes.
-It's to do with the transport.
If, and I say if, it is the same guy,
he picks up the victims one place
then transports them to another place
to kill them. Why?
Tina walks along the road here,
and was found here.
Here are the high plains.
And here's the caravan park
where Sofie was found.
So a kidnapping on the high plains
ends with a murder down here.
A serial offender usually operates
within a specific area.
A kind of territory.
So this here is his territory.
Which is bigger than we first estimated.
Which means we need more data.
Erik, can you contact all the police
stations we've not already spoken to?
We need access to the archives from
all the districts he moves through.
Johan's going to go crazy.
No, I'm not blocking.
I'll fix it.
Erik's right.
It's really strange to do it that way.
What?
Here's where Sofie was picked up.
And here's the caravan.
We know that Sofie was
killed in the caravan.
It's four hours by car from where
she was picked up.
It's pretty strange
when you think about it.
Yeah.
What are you thinking?
It's way too high risk.
I mean, if I was a
-Murderer.
-Yeah.
Look, I drive here, right?
And then I see Sofie here.
It must be difficult to get a
woman in the car.
Then drive for several hours without
anyone seeing anything,
without anything unexpected happening
all the way down to a fucking
campsite and then kill her there.
Why the hell not just take her
over here to just
Take her there,
kill her and then disappear?
I have an idea. We're going to
get inside his head.
We set the starting point
where he picked up Sofie.
And we drive south from
there toward the campsite.
I want to see the route
he drove himself.
You drive up.
You see a girl along the road.
Maybe she's hitchhiking?
Or maybe she just turned around.
Maybe he knew her?
Maybe you know her.
Do you know her?
Think like him.
-I dont know.
-What do you think?
Choose.
What's your gut telling you?
It was random.
She turned around when he drove up.
When I drove up.
So I slow down, roll down the window
and then I ask if she wants a lift.
-And then?
-Then she gets in.
-Are you turned on?
-No, fuck!
Think like him. Are you turned on?
A bit excited?
No?
You've stopped the car,
you've seen a girl
walking along the road.
You've slowed down, you've rolled
down the windows.
What now?
Don't know?
Maybe something happens?
Don't ask me.
You're the man here.
How do you think?
I thought that men think about fucking
everything that moves.
Yeah, but damn,
I couldn't kill a girl for it.
But let's say it was legal.
Let's say all your friends do it.
Let's say it's the Stone Age,
and it's completely normal to fuck woman
and then kill them afterwards.
Fuck, be honest! I've read
thousands of interviews with killers.
It starts with them being surprised
by a thought.
Eventually,
that thought becomes compulsive.
Everybody's had the thought, but
So follow that thought!
Imagine that something has gone
fundamentally wrong in your mind.
That you discover that you get
rock hard from killing girls.
I don't know why it's
like that, but it is.
And now you have a girl in the car.
You have power.
This is what you've been longing for.
Now you have the opportunity.
You've got her in the car,
and then
I would start driving.
Good!
We'll find out why you
drive hours from here
to get to the caravan park.
You're just like any other man,
except that you're not content
with just grabbing her tits
or fucking her in a cheap motel.
You want something more.
That's all you want.
You want to kill.
Can you stop the car?
You've driven way past my village.
I'm starting to wonder
where you're going.
I'm starting to get anxious.
So what do you do now?
Maybe I ask if she wants to go to
a party with me, or something?
-Because?
-Some girls are like that.
How's that?
Some girls, you know,
are just up for it.
They're up for it?
You know what I mean.
We're in Finland.
I'll go in and get some food.
You stay here.
I'll get stuff for you.
Good, Dan Robin.
-Hi.
-Hi.
Are there any buses
that go through here?
Yes. The bus to Muonio stops here.
I saw that you have a surveillance
camera over there.
Have the police been and looked at it?
Not that I know of.
Are you from the police?
No.
Do you know if you keep the footage
for long?
I've no idea whether there's an
archive or something.
Thank you. Bye.
I told you to stay in the car,
for fuck sake.
You're easy to escape from.
Are you angry?
Where's this party you talked about?
We're driving on the main road
now, right?
Yes.
Would you do that
if you kidnapped a woman?
Isn't there a pretty big risk
of being seen?
Yeah.
I think I would take
one of the small roads instead.
Then lets do that.
I reckon it's about now I would
start tying you up.
To gain control?
Mhm.
Is it best to lie down in the back
seat or in the trunk?
Or have me here, but under control?
The trunk.
He's choking her, right?
Mhm.
If he's trained, then he knows that it's
quite effective.
She loses consciousness.
No, now you have to stop. I'm an adult.
You have to stop ordering me around.
I'm in Nerbygd.
To find out what happened to Sofie.
No.
No. I don't know when I'll be back.
I have to be able to be on my own, Dad.
Can you please trust me for once?
Yes.
Yes.
Fucking hell, it's a thousand
bloody degrees in here.
You wouldn't drive in here without being
completely sure that it's safe.
He knows the place.
He knows who the owner is.
-Do you have the keys?
-Yes.
If he knows the place,
and the caravan
then he's been here before.
Repeatedly.
And planned and prepared.
We know the woman who runs the caravan
park has called the police before.
Should I try to find here her?
We have tradesman's bills here with
attachments for the last three years.
We have full-timeguests
all regular guests.
we have a copy of IDs, driver's licenses
and birth and social security numbers.
So we have every fucking thing we need.
Hi.
So I've got access to cases
from the other police districts.
I've also organised them
geographically on our axis.
And a couple of cases outside the
scope to be on the safe side.
There's something
interesting here. A rape
A report about a voyeur
who wasn't arrested.
Someone who has reported repeated
burglaries in the garage
There is also serious
violence in a pub
Don't know, but it may be relevant?
He's local.
He knows the campsite and
the small roads.
I think we cross-check all
the information we have.
We check the Tina case against
everything we have in the Sofie case
against what you think is
relevant here, Erik.
Plus what we have from the
caravan park.
Be meticulouse.
Shit, it's Johan.
Yes, hello?
-Hi.
-Hi.
Have you been to Finland?
Yeah.
What the fuck were you doing there?
We drove the route of the perpetrator?
-And stopped at a motel at the border?
-Yes.
What? Have we been reported?
Yes, the receptionist rang the Finnish
police and reported the incident.
And the Finnish police rang the
central board of the Norwegian police.
And then they called me
and questioned what the hell you
and your people were doing.
Yes, and now they know.
What's the problem?
-You're so fucking naive.
-Do you not want to solve the case?
All police districts have cases
they have to drop.
Every police district
in the entire world, Maja.
Everyone knows that you can't go
into depth for everything.
You're not looking at
the whole picture, Maja.
We're under enormous pressure here.
So then you can safely
deprioritise women.
Or?
Erik?
What kind of access do we have
to cases in Finland and Sweden?
No, it’s alright. But it’s like
being in a two-front war.
You know, always stepping
on someone’s toes.
Yeah, I know you warned me.
Here?
Come here now?
No, I don't think that’s a good idea.
Because
Someone’s coming. I’ve got to hang up.
Love you. Bye.
Yes?
I’ve had a call from Reiska.
-Who is?
-A contact from Finland.
So you contacted the police in Finland?
Yes, I thought after Johan's outburst
that it might be better to use
the informal channels.
So I called Sweden, and Finland.
Reiska sent me this.
Oh fuck!
Abduction. Suffocation.
Hardly any injuries to the victim.
The police classify it as an almost
professionally committed murder.
-Who was she?
-A girl from Lithuania.
A summer worker
who worked off the books.
The farmer didn't report her missing
because he didn’t want the police
looking into his economy.
But There’s more.
Here.
It’s him! It’s the fucking bastard
we’re looking for.
He’s someone that people know.
Trust.
He operates under the radar.
A classic example of he was so quiet,
he was so kind, he was one of us.
What kind of profession travels across
the border, almost invisible?
-The military?
-Transport.
Maybe he has business over the border.
Johan?
We now have a total
of twenty-seven cases.
From Sweden, Finland, and Norway.
First you cross the border into Finland.
Even though I asked you
to tread carefully.
And then you get me to fucking contact
the police in Sweden?
You know what? Strictly speaking,
it was actually your Deputy,
Erik, who did it.
You know what, Maja?
That's it.
It's over.
Over?
In fact, I'm pretty relieved.
This case has grown out of control.
We can't handle it ourselves anymore.
What are you trying to say, Johan?
I'm taking you off
the investigation team.
If you’d done what I said
and followed the rules
then this would still
have been your case.
If I'd followed the rules there
wouldn't be a fucking case
and you know it!
Johan, I have to keep
working on this case!
Because?
Because this is my case.
No.
She’s manic.
She just reels off more and more shit.
She never stops.
I hope I never see her here again.
Fuck sake.
Cunt. Fuck.
Everyone's following
what we're doing now.
The Sofie case.
The Tina case.
In Sweden. Finland.
Fuck, it wreaks of unprofessionalism.
I should never have let that fucking
Maja Angell start messing around.
All this shit will soon be moved to
Tromsø or to Vatsø
or wherever the fuck they want.
And with the results we have to show
this office won't exist for much longer,
I can guarantee you that.
It's not the end, just because one
of us will have to move.
Exactly.
You can continue your career.
Take over my job. Climb.
We don't even have money to
buy pens anymore.
And then all these
cases are thrown at us
and all these cunts and know-it-alls
will come and show us
how to do our jobs.
Oh well.
-Oh well?
-I'm not doing this.
This has gone
way beyond idefensible now.
Yes, you can go and call
the special unit then.
You could have been a good
whistleblower, Erik.
Look at you sitting there
making a fool out of yourself.
You're making a fool out of your self,
and you're making a fool of
everyone around you.
Sort yourself out, Johan.
Pull your self together and man up.
I'm so sick of your whining.
-What do you think I should do then?
-Ask for help.
Help? What a great idea.
Thank you.
What was the helpline number again?
Fuck. Special forces, Johan!
It's been four years since
we asked for assistance.
This is not about reforms.
It's just about you.
-You and your fucking pride.
-Exactly.
I'm not having any cunts from
Bærum coming here
with their briefcases and white overalls
and emptying our resources.
You think special forces is free?
You think that?
But what’s the fucking plan then?
Hello?
Hello?
Yes.
I have some information about Sofie.
Sofie?
The girl who was killed in the area.
What kind of information do you have?
Did you know her?
Barely.
She was a couple of years older than me.
But I think I know why
she left the village.
Is it Maja who asked you
to come here?
Maja?
Maja Angell.
Just leave it.
Just bullshit from her
Sofie's little sister talked
about a hotel.
That she got a job there.
Uh-huh?
Yeah, so something
must have happened there.
What sort of job?
A maid.
I also worked there.
Was that where you met?
No, I worked there later.
Okay
Listen, can you not
just take this and
If you can just go to our website,
you'll find my email address there.
Send me an email,
so I can take a look at it tomorrow.
Or
Yes, someone will contact you if there's
anything else we're wondering about.
Several of the maids at that hotel,
They left and went off
with the male guests.
Fuck.
You're just reaffirming all
my prejudices about the police.
What was it you said her name was?
Maja?
Angell.
Hi.
You really shouldn't be here now,
should you?
