Trom (2022) s01e04 Episode Script

Defend, Conserve, Protect

1
Get out of here!
Get out of here, man!
-Take it easy.
-Get out of here, go!
Calm down.
If you just listen, I can explain.
Put the gun down, please.
Sonja contacted me
before she went missing.
Said she feared for her safety.
Someone was after her.
You're the one
who recovered her body.
Yes.
What are you doing here?
I'm her father.
I found this map in Sonja's house,
and this location was marked.
I came here to see what was going on.
No, I saw you with the police.
How do I know you're not working with
them and you're her father?
I am not. Let me show you
the message she sent me.
Lower the gun, please.
Hi, Hannis.
It's Sonja.
I have tried calling you
I am just trying to find out
what happened.
I have been thinking about
how to contact you for some time now.
Follow me.
It's okay.
So what can you tell me about Sonja?
How did she get involved
with you guys?
She came to us and wanted to
know more about the work we do here.
And she donated some money
and got more involved
with the mission.
Which is?
To stop the destruction
of the natural habitat.
Our ocean's ecosystem.
Sonja wanted to join us in fight
against industrial pollution,
destructive fishing, plastics
and other debris choking marine life.
She wanted to fight
for her daughter's future.
Your granddaughter.
So we take action to confront
and expose the profiteers
who try to ignore what's going on.
That's all very good.
It doesn't change the fact
that Sonja is now dead, does it?
Come here.
She'd had enough.
And now it's down to us
to make a difference.
To have her death
count for something.
That's why you are targeting Ragnar?
Yeah.
That was Sonja's idea.
And what was the plan?
We were meant to be having
this protest meeting out west.
I met with her the evening before
and she told me she was planning
on breaking in somewhere
to find evidence she needed
for that story she was working on
with that guy from KVF.
The guy who ended up in the hospital.
She tried to get me involved.
But we had enough on our plate
as it was, so
I turned her down.
That's why I thought she didn't show
up to the protest meeting that night.
I don't know why the police and media
keep saying they found her car there.
She wasn't there.
I didn't see her there.
And where was that meeting?
Here, I'll show you.
Right here.
This is where we held the meeting,
but there is no way she died there.
Why?
Well, it's not very likely.
If she died here, then her body
wouldn't have turned up in Tórshavn.
The tide couldn't have been a factor?
No, because then her body would
have to drift around this island.
Down this way through three fjords
and back towards the beach
during the whale hunt.
Wherever she died,
I don't think it was on this island.
You said she wanted
to break in somewhere?
Yeah, I think you should ask
her friend Jenny about that.
Sonja was going to get her help
to do it.
If Hannis has been to see Kirstin,
maybe he broke into Sonja's house.
Yeah, I will have Gísli
go talk to Sonja's neighbors again.
We have to work fast, we can
hold Bergur only a couple more hours.
Karla, Bergur just called a lawyer.
-When?
-Just now, a little while ago.
-Here, we might have found something.
-What is this?
It's not 100% yet, but it looks like
Páll's car might have been hacked.
How?
We noticed some irregularities
in the car's electronic control unit.
-Everything can be hacked these days.
-What exactly have you found?
Looks like car's monitoring system
and adaptive cruise control
were hacked.
And the automatic braking system
was disabled.
That could've been used
to force the car's acceleration.
Okay.
That explains why he appears to
suddenly speed up before the crash.
-Could Bergur have hacked it?
-We are trying to find out.
We are also checking
if Sonja's car was hacked.
-Okay, do we have anything else?
-Yes.
Bergur spent a few months in
Mjørkadalur prison on drug charges.
He spent some time in isolation,
which he doesn't cope with too well.
There's a lot. A long wrap sheet.
Theft, vandalism, break-in, arson
All before he gets into
Ragnar's rehabilitation program.
I was thinking,
we could use this to
-Put some pressure on him.
-Good, Gísli.
Next time, just give me summary.
What is this, 1500 pages?
At least 2000.
Excuse me.
Hi, I am here to see Jenny.
She's not here, I think
she's teaching at Glasir today.
-Glasir?
-The college.
Has something happened?
There was a guy from Sound Salmon
asking for her as well.
Who?
I didn't catch the name.
He just left.
-That guy?
-Yes.
Thanks.
Why am I still under suspicion?
For what?
You tried to evade our interview,
so we had to arrest you.
That is the reason
we are still sitting here.
An innocent person
usually doesn't run.
I am playing along here.
But I don't know what to tell you
that I haven't told you
100 times already.
Why did you run?
If you have nothing to hide,
just answer the question.
Maybe you get to leave.
You worked on two cars
that now play a central part
in the investigation
into a possible attempted murder.
And a suspicious death.
I don't know what happened to Sonja.
And I have nothing to do with it.
Whoever messed with her car
must've done it
before she brought it to the garage.
She came in saying someone had messed
with her car, loosened the bolts
I looked into it.
She was right.
When was this?
When did she bring in her car?
I don't know.
About two weeks ago, I think.
We also know Páll's car was hacked.
Do you know anything about that?
I'm not answering any more questions,
until I have spoken to my lawyer.
Excuse me, I'm looking for
the natural science lab?
It's on the sixth floor,
just up there.
Thanks.
Hi. I'm looking for Jenny.
Is she here?
Jenny called in sick today.
Do you know where she lives?
Yes, she lives out on Reyni,
but who are you?
I am working on some things
with Jenny,
I need to ask her something.
I've tried calling
but there's no answer.
Like I said she's not here today,
but maybe I can help you?
No, that's okay, thanks.
-I'm looking for Jenny. Is she here?
-No, she went to work early.
They said she called in sick.
Strange. It doesn't sound like her.
She never calls in sick.
Do you know
where she might have gone?
Usually, I'd guess
somewhere with Sonja
But
I don't know.
She travels all over the country
for work, so it could be anywhere.
Can you tell her I'm looking for her?
It's important.
My name is Hannis Martinsson.
Yes, okay.
Thank you.
1500 pages of reports about you
from the social authorities.
Time at various institutions,
moving between foster homes.
A lot of taxpayers' money
has been spent on you.
It must have been hard for you.
I know all about that.
I've had a hard time myself.
But then I got an education.
I became a police officer.
You have had a lot of opportunities
to make a better life for yourself.
You were previously caught
for possession of drugs.
You go to jail, get out, get into
Ragnar's rehabilitation program.
Why haven't you gotten smarter?
Why do you think
you're still sitting here?
We have strong evidence
connecting you to the case.
If you don't speak now,
it will be even worse for you,
when you stand in front of a judge.
I want to speak to my client alone.
I need to talk to you, now.
How the hell can he afford
someone like that?
I don't know,
but we can't deny him a lawyer.
I know Bergur is hiding something.
See if you can find anything else to
get us a warrant.
Yes.
I now have that lawyer
breathing down my neck.
Why is Bergur still interrogated?
We still have him for a few hours.
You have now had him
more than 48 hours in custody.
We cannot keep him more than 72 hours
without charging him or throwing him
in prison with a sentence.
-I know, but we suspect him of
-To have a suspicion is fine.
What do we actually have
to charge him with?
We just need a little more time.
Our time is up.
-Are you ready?
-Ready?
For the press conference.
Did you prepare?
I never got anything from you.
Of course, I'm ready.
Good, they'll be here any minute.
Sonja's death was caused by drowning.
There is nothing suggesting her death
was caused by a criminal act.
There is nothing to indicate
her death was anything other
than a tragic accident.
Sonja's death
was due to
a tragic accident.
I told them to wait
another 5 minutes.
Thank you.
Sonja's death was caused
by a tragic accident.
Welcome to our press conference.
Today, I will give you a short update
on the case of Sonja á Heyggi.
You can ask
a few questions afterwards,
but I cannot talk about any specific
details of our investigation.
Due to the mysterious circumstances
surrounding the disappearance
and the discovery of the dead body,
we have performed an autopsy.
The Faroese chief medical officer
and a Danish police pathologist
concluded that the cause of death
was drowning.
Both confirmed that the time of death
was up to 24 hours
before the body was found.
Based on the injuries
on Sonja's body,
we find it likely that she fell
from a great height,
has been injured in the fall
and then drowned.
We cannot rule out
a possible suicide.
Or a tragic accident.
But we are still following up
on all potential leads in the case.
That is all the information
I can give you today. Any questions?
Yes, you up front.
What is the other evidence
you base this evaluation on?
We have found the car Sonja drove
as well as her mobile phone
and a piece of clothing near where
a G.O.S. protest meeting was held
on the night of Sonja's
disappearance.
She was to give a speech there.
It gives us some knowledge
of her last movements.
But the body was found in Sandagerð.
Yes.
Like I said, it is still unclear
where Sonja fell and drowned.
Anna, yes.
Sources say you've had a suspect in
custody who has since been released.
-Is this something you can confirm?
-Yes, I can confirm that.
Can you say anything else about that?
I cannot answer questions about
the specifics of our investigation.
Yes?
Why haven't you asked
the Danish police for help yet?
We work with the Danish police,
but there are things
we know a bit more about here.
Of course, we co-operate
with our friends on the "flat land."
Good, thank you for today.
What evidence do you have
that Sonja's death was not a murder?
And that she might've
committed suicide?
It is known
that she received threats.
We are aware of the debate that this
case has created on social media
and of the uncertainty it has caused
in our small community,
but I can once more
make it very clear
that the police has not found
any clear evidence
to indicate that Sonja's death
was caused by
a criminal action.
We find it very likely that Sonja's
death was a tragic accident.
And that is all for today, thank you.
-You are wrong.
-Out of my way.
Sonja was afraid of someone.
The evidence speaks for itself.
Unlike you journalists,
the police can't just invent a story
that fits our agenda.
Someone was after her.
-This is Hannis.
-Hi Hannis, this is Kirstin.
Hi.
How is he?
I don't know really. He was fine
when he woke up.
I told him everything
that's happened.
-He wanted to talk to the police.
-About what?
He said it wasn't an accident.
Then when the police showed up,
he was completely different.
He didn't want to talk.
Then I told him about you.
Does he know about Sonja?
No, I don't want to stress him more
right now.
Hi sweetheart, Hannis is here.
Hannis?
Hannis Martinsson.
I'm a journalist.
Páll, he told me he knows you.
What do you want?
Sonja contacted me.
She said you were working together
to expose Ragnar and his companies,
some corruption
I'm not working on anything.
I am here to help you, Páll.
What happened to you
and Sonja's death are connected.
-Sonja is dead?
-Hey, no
-Is Sonja dead?
-We're not talking about this now.
Get out.
-Do you know where Arni is?
-Out!
Do you know where Arni is?
Wait!
What happened to Sonja?
She drowned.
Washed up on the beach.
That's the official story.
He left the country.
He said he wanted to protect
his family.
Do you know where he is now?
In Iceland.
-Do you know where exactly?
-No.
Hey, what are you doing here?
Hannis?
Rannvá?
-It's been a long time.
-You can say that again.
-You work here now?
-I am the chief medical officer.
So you examined Sonja's body?
-Sonja á Heyggi?
-Yes.
Yes, I performed the initial external
examination of the body. Why?
Can I see the autopsy report?
I can't show you any details,
those are confidential.
I can only tell you what the police
has made public.
The cause of death was drowning.
Sonja is my daughter.
Yeah
I didn't see
any biological father registered.
I know, it is news to me too.
I have only known for about a week.
Is it possible to
You need to bring a confirmation
from her mother.
And her permission
to see the details of the autopsy.
This is Hannis. Where are you?
I'll meet you there.
So do you believe
what the police is now saying?
Was this really just an accident?
Yes, I think we need to trust
that the police does have all
the evidence to back up their claims.
And I think we need to bear in mind
that it's not uncommon
that people fall down
the mountains in the Faroes.
It is not unheard of.
What do you want?
I need to see
Sonja's autopsy report.
I think the police is withholding
information about her death.
-Why would they do that?
-I don't know.
-Something just doesn't add up.
-She drowned.
That's what the police said.
And the chief medical officer.
And the Danish pathologist.
I know.
I can't deal with this.
Can't you let it rest?
Can you just do me that favor?
Just so I can get it clarified?
Don't you want to know what happened?
She drowned, Hannis.
She is also my daughter.
Gísli!
-Yes?
-What did Sonja's neighbors say?
You went to interview
Sonja's neighbors, right?
-Oh no.
-Why not?
I've been following up on calls we're
getting after Ragnar's reward offer.
What do you mean?
No one has had time for anything
other than answering the phone today.
Didn't Anita ask you to go talk
to Sonja's neighbors?
Yes, but I just thought
to get all this sorted first.
Gísli, you do what I tell you.
That is your job. Okay?
You'll just have to let those phones
keep ringing.
Yes, of course. Sorry.
-Hi.
-Hi.
-Is everything okay?
-Yeah, sure.
When is it you're going
on maternity leave?
In about a month, why?
No, I'm just asking.
Are you worried about working alone
with Karla?
No.
-Yes, you are.
-Okay, maybe just a little.
-It will be fine, Gísli.
-Yeah
Ragnar! Hold on!
What are you doing here?
Why are you interfering
with my investigation?
Excuse me?
We're flooded with calls from locals
with all kinds of information
we have to follow up on.
It takes up all our time
and our resources.
Next time you want to help,
you come to me first.
This is my investigation, not yours.
What is going on here?
We have leads we want to investigate,
but we can't because Gisli and Anita
are on the phone all day.
All because you let Ragnar
run around, playing the holy man.
This isn't a sheep that was run over,
or a drunk sailing out into the fog,
but our biggest case ever
on the Faroe Islands.
It's your responsibility that I have
a department I can run efficiently.
Thank you for today.
Take the rest of the day off.
Are you alright, dear?
Yes, I'm fine.
Magga has been trying to reach you.
She says you're not answering.
I am getting Gunnar.
He needs to go to the fitting.
Let me do it.
I know better than you
how it's supposed to fit.
I just need a few minutes.
Right, Karla?
Karla?
Sorry
I remember
when we fitted your clothes.
That's when you became one of us.
I couldn't believe it.
When I was waiting in church,
I looked fantastic in your clothes.
This pattern is so beautiful.
Yes, really beautiful, huh?
If you take good care
of your Faroese suit,
it will last your whole life,
longer even.
You can use it for so much more
than a graduation.
You can wear it for Ólavsøka,
go to Faroese dances,
wear it as you stand as godfather
in church, go to weddings.
There is so much you can use it for.
Maybe you want to get married in it.
You just need to be careful
not to get a fatty winter tire
around your waist before then.
You know,
you can always talk to me
You can tell me everything, right?
Anything.
I will always be there for you.
I hope you know that. No matter what.
Okay.
Shall we go?
Wait.
How did you know Sonja?
-I met her a few times.
-When?
I don't know.
She had a presentation at Glasir.
I met her on a night out.
We spoke about Guardians of the Sea.
-Why?
-Why?
Because it's interesting.
She was interesting.
Did she want you to become
a member of the Guardians?
She tried.
-And?
-I said no.
They always cause you trouble, so
What is this?
I don't know.
I've never seen it before.
I found it in your jacket.
-My jacket?
-Yes.
It's not mine.
-I've never seen it before.
-Not on Sonja either?
-Is that Sonja's?
-Yes.
-I don't know why it's in my jacket.
-Stop lying.
-Why are you lying to me?
-I don't know how it ended up there.
-I am not lying!
-Don't lie to me!
Why are you always
going through my things?
Why can't you leave my things alone?
Have you thought about
what you're going to do now?
Not at all.
I mean
I'm glad I have Turið
and that I can take care of her.
But I also worry about her.
You are welcome to move in here
for the time being.
Move in here?
As guests.
I meant what I said.
You were there for me.
When Guðrun died.
Now, I can be here for you.
I think it would be best for you
and Turið, that you feel safe.
That you don't lose
your everyday lives.
Turið can continue as normal
in school.
With her friends.
And there will be the two of us
to support her emotionally
and if she needs to let off
some steam.
I am
I don't know.
I appreciate the offer.
It's not that
I won't take no for an answer.
What are you doing here?
I just came by for a quick chat.
I have an update for you.
Okay.
Dinner's almost ready, I invited her
but she said she wasn't hungry.
I already ate three dinners today.
But this will only take five minutes.
I know you're not happy about
the calls we are receiving now after
Ragnar offered that reward,
but today I got a tip about Bergur.
A mother called, claiming that Bergur
sold drugs to two young girls.
Teenagers.
They both ended up in the hospital.
They are fine now.
They confirmed it.
They got the drugs from Bergur.
Then we have enough for a new arrest.
And search warrant.
Yes.
We'll get access to Gunnar's phone,
residence, bank information
Everything.
You mean Bergur's.
-What did I say?
-You said Gunnar.
Sorry, of course. Bergur.
Is everything okay?
Yes, everything's fine.
I must apologize for my little
outburst towards Ragnar
earlier today.
Between the two of us,
Óðin is in his pocket.
I can't take it.
But now, we can move on Bergur
and maybe solve the case.
-That was good, Anita.
-Yes
Hannis. I got your message.
I've tried to remember
everything Sonja told me.
She got me to help her.
-To break into Ragnar's companies.
-Yes.
She asked about all kinds of things.
Security cameras, alarm systems
She said she wanted to investigate
the environmental impact
of Ragnar's companies.
I never thought
it would come to this.
Stewart must have gotten her
to take it one step further.
-Stewart said it was Sonja's idea.
-He says a lot.
I remember she told me about a test
they had planned together.
Something they could try out here,
and then repeat elsewhere.
Norway, Iceland
Create an environmental scandal.
Which they afterwards could blame
on the whole fishing industry?
Was that the idea?
Where and when was the last time
you saw Sonja?
In Ragnar's main office building.
I was showing her the place.
-The main office? Where is that?
-They have a building by Argir.
It's the main office
for all his companies.
Iktus, Sound Salmon, Norðskip.
And the police
don't know anything about this?
No.
I was afraid.
That Ragnar would find out.
Aurora called me.
The autopsy report
The latest results from Denmark
are also in there.
-Thank you.
-Good night.
-What's that?
-Sonja's autopsy report.
Is everything okay
between the two of you?
Yes, everything's fine.
Nice of you to cook dinner.
Gunnar, did you tell your mother
about your new job?
I was offered a job.
Where?
Norðskip.
-You're going out sailing?
-Yes.
A real man, making his own money now.
Ragnar í Rong isn't the worst role
model when it comes to making money.
So that's the plan.
Karla.
Karla, look at me.
Karla, look at me.
What is going on here?
No, it's probably Anita who's back.
What are you doing here?
Why are you withholding information
about Sonja's death?
Wounds did not bleed or bruise
due to lack of blood circulation.
The severe injuries to her head
and body happened after her death.
It's likely she was
thrown off a cliff after her death.
You didn't mention that
to the press?
Where did you get that?
-I am her father!
-I know this is personal for you.
We are doing everything we can
Sonja didn't trust the police.
I understand why.
You won't get away with this!
