Gidseltagningen (2017) s01e06 Episode Script

1 This is Philip Nørgaard, from the PET Anti-Terrorism Unit.
The garage wall was covered with pictures of me.
It doesn't mean anything, focus on the 13 hostages down there.
It's been 5 days, someone could lose their head.
I need one of you for an interview and I don't want any trouble this time.
Let's not make it worse.
- I won't stay here waiting to die! They could raise the price or start killing hostages.
We need to regain control of the situation and bring her to our side.
Will you negotiate downwards? - I don't negotiate with them.
It's all a negotiation! Who do you know down there? - My father.
- Leon's your father? Will you attend the interview? It may help your father.
Will you say hello to Leon from his son? Leon has no sons, just 2 daughters.
- Daughters? Let us go or I kill this guy.
- Then I'll kill this guy.
Hello! Everybody, calm down! Joachim, you're a very brave man but you will die and take the others with you.
What Joachim did was really stupid.
No, Denise! The elevator is coming up! DAY 6 It's only a matter of time.
Bravo! Say hello to Leon from his son.
- Leon has no sons.
He's got one Jonas.
I've known Leon for 15 years, he only has two daughters.
Two daughters? - Yes, both grown up.
Hey! No more talking! Hi.
- Hi.
Did I wake you? - No, I was working.
I brought coffee.
Actually, I - I'll be very good.
I'll stay quiet in a corner.
Have you talked to someone? - What you mean? Have you talked about me? I don't You're hurting me! - Shut up and do as I say! Another victim of the hostage situation, yesterday, below Marmorkirken.
The body of 70 yrs old Bodil Petersen was sent to surface on the elevator.
Politics criticize how the police is managing the situation which has now been going on for 6 days.
The population is also expressing frustration.
They should be able to save them.
- They should just pay the money.
Social media too are filled with sympathy and frustration for a situation that just costed another life.
It could have gone worse.
- And how? We have one more dead hostage.
They might have killed all of them.
Even the Minister of Justice can't paint this as a victory.
We can't allow 3 men to hold the whole city hostage for days.
You talked about 12 hours, we're at the sixth day.
It's unacceptable.
I agree and the Government too.
The whole world is watching us, we gotta do something.
We'll give you anything you need, just close this case! That's exactly what we want but there are no simple solutions.
So what do you suggest? We have a technical priority: a videocamera down there.
This way, we'll be able to know who they are.
That's what we need now.
We should start negotiations.
- I thought you were against that.
We just cut their power to put pressure on them.
They may have a generator and emergency lights but they won't last long.
After Bodil's death, the fundraising had a strong increase.
What does this mean for us? - If they think the solution is near, they'll be more cooperative.
I think we'll hear from them soon.
I sincerely hope you're right.
You do it.
- I'll ask him what he's looking at.
Are you ok? - Yes.
What are you watching there? - My family.
May I? Very cute.
Happy birthday.
I saw your health card 50! - Yes.
We gotta celebrate.
- Don't tell the others.
Come on! We can arrange something - Ricco I'm serious.
Ok.
He's got one Jonas.
- I've known Tell me why are you doing this.
Where are we going? - Just get ready.
That was a donation? - Yes, I write back to each one of them.
Write back to the last ones then turn the computer off.
Hi, Louise.
We got your donation.
From: Naja Toft.
Subj: Thanks for the donation.
Jung, find me Philip.
- Ok.
This is Naja Toft.
Leave a message.
What is it? - Naja just thanked me for a donation I've never made.
Did you call her? - Yes, she hung up and now it's off.
Something's wrong.
Keep trying.
Cramer, it's me.
Send a car to Naja's house.
This is Naja Toft.
Leave a message.
Louise, come help me in the kitchen.
Louise, are you coming? Yes? - I need you here.
We sent a car at Naja's, she's with an unidentified man.
She's packing her bags and looks very nervous.
Something's definitely not right.
Something's happening.
We need a plan of action.
Naja's house has 2 floors.
If the man is alone, he can only control one.
We have a good visual on both sides.
There's two ways in: from the north and from the south.
We got a vantage point on the building in front and a camera on the garage roof.
I've been in that house, that's how it is: A cellar you enter from here.
Here's the kitchen, bathroom, stairs.
Bedroom and the studio she uses for the interviews.
Naja and the unknown man are there.
There might be others so be careful.
Backyard cleared.
Echo 1.
I'm at the O.
P.
Echo 1 in position.
- What do you see? Bedroom is empty.
No visual on the 1st floor.
Keep looking.
Over.
Come on, move! You can still get out of this, nobody knows anything Are you ready? Just a couple of things from the bathroom.
I see them.
A man and Naja Toft.
- Roger, Echo 1.
Is the man armed? I see no weapons.
She got in the bathroom, he stands outside.
He's heading to the doorway, he's about to go outside.
Over.
Go.
1 and 2 moving.
Keep an eye on the possible entry point.
Echo 1.
Roger.
Over and out.
Hold 1 in position.
Let's go, dammit! Echo 1.
The door is clear.
If we're gone for long, I'm gonna need my contacts.
Echo1, 3 2 1 You can't spend your birthday sleeping.
- I'm not sleeping.
What was the plan? - What plan? How were you gonna celebrate? - I didn't organize anything.
Bullshit! Sure you did! Something spectacular, right? You filthy moneybags! Were you gonna take all your friends to Saint-Tropez? My wife planned a surprise party.
- Cool! If it was a surprise, how come you know about it? My younger daughter is no good at keeping secrets.
She had 80 people coming in, a bartender, waiters She had it all taken care of.
- Sounds like you got a good wife.
She's the best.
Then you don't deserve her.
- Let's say I got lucky.
What's that? A dreamcatcher.
- Hippie stuff? - That's right.
What does it do? - You hang it over your bed and it captures bad dreams.
Only nice dreams can pass through.
- Really? 100%.
Maybe I'll borrow it some time.
Have you ever heard him talking on the phone? Did you hear any names? Relatives or others? No, he never made any phone calls.
Is that his phone? - Yes, he was in contact with the kidnappers all the time.
What if they call him? - Are you ready? They know we got their man.
Call them once an hour.
What do we know about Jonas? - Looks like his name is Ben.
PET is checking his real identity.
We're ready.
You already met.
- Yes.
Naja will help us.
- Good.
This way we can coordinate the contacts with the kidnappers.
Yes, of course.
- Now I have to ask you to step outside.
Ok.
Hi.
Sorry for keeping you wait, we needed some things fixed.
Were you offered something? Coffee? I'll have it then.
So, Ben How did you end up in this mess? - I don't know what you're talking about.
We know you've been in contact with the kidnappers.
We know it from your phone.
If you pull the emergency brake, the train will stop at the next station.
It only stops between two stations if there's something on the tracks.
They didn't have time to set up a block.
So there's gotta be a fourth man who helped them from the start.
We think it was you.
- Fascinating theory.
But what do they need you for now? - No, no the question is: why am I here? I only slept with a journalist.
- She says you were holding her hostage.
She invited me in but you already know that.
The PET report.
- Thanks.
You had a brother, dead in the line of duty.
Jim.
We have three men in the subway acting like professional soldiers.
Plus a dead soldier, whose brother is helping them.
What do you and Jim have to do with the kidnappers? How did you meet? Perhaps you served together? It's ridiculous! You think there are Danish soldiers behind all this? It's one lead.
- Jim Hansen was in the K7 Unit.
Two were killed and other 4 are disabled.
But they're being cured.
- There's no pill for PTSD.
Many of them suffered things impossible to overcome.
I know it doesn't look good but this is the situation, I'm afraid.
Who's the other dead soldier? - Mark Hald, killed in the same ambush.
I find this very hard to believe.
Philip, what do you think? Do you know that platoon? - Not at all.
I'll talk to the commanding officer, they know their men well.
I'm coming too, we gotta find the rest of the K7.
Not a word to the press, it's the last thing we need now.
I agree.
What just happened? - What you mean? You were on another planet.
- I was there with you.
You know what I mean.
- I don't have the energy for one of your interrogatories.
If someone asks for me, I'll be right back.
I need all the material, including what's never been aired.
Someone knows something but won't talk and I don't know why.
I have a feeling there's something we're not seeing.
Ok.
Thanks.
39, put it down right.
30 and 30.
Someone called for the car today.
Did he leave his number? - Yes, I wrote it down.
Why are you selling it? - It's just too big.
I thought you liked it.
- Yes, but There's not enough space in the backseat and the girl here is growing.
It's you who has to like it, you spend all your time in the car.
Sammy? - Yes.
We're from the police, can we ask you a few questions? - Sure, let's get inside.
Do you mind if we record? - No problem, what is it about? You were captain in the K7, right? - Correct.
We have some questions about your men.
- Specifically what? We'd like to know about their conditions I mean, mentally.
Our Unit was hit hard, not everybody got out well.
Can you tell us about the ambush in which Jim Hansen and Mark Hald were killed.
Of course.
We were patrolling and we had fallen behind.
Who else was there beside Jim and Mark? - We were 35.
A small group got separated from the others.
Myself, Jim, Mark and other 4.
Andersen Andersen, Fischer, Berg and Ridder.
We were attacked and forced into some buildings.
Jim and myself into one, the rest into another.
We called for backup but there was no way to reach us.
- How long have you been stuck there? All day.
At one point there was a break so we could escape.
Me first, then Jim and Mark after him.
They both got hit by a grenade.
You saw it yourself? - Yes.
They were blown to pieces.
- How did the others take it? Not well.
Jim and Mark were the most experienced, everyone looked up at them.
The Captain doesn't believe there's someone from the K7 behind all this.
Did you contact all of them? - Clausen and his team are on it.
Where's Philip? - He's in a briefing.
I don't think the Captain is telling the truth.
- Ok.
He's lying.
- Why do you think that? His eyes, his body language, the phrase construction small things.
I need something a bit more solid than that.
- Yes.
What is he lying about? And why? - Yes.
I didn't get that impression I need the records on the soldiers from the K7.
Video or audio? - I wanna hear their voices.
Let's hear now from the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
I've been informed that an arrest has been made in relation with the hostages case.
The police best officers are at work and I'm sure that we will solve the situation.
It's all I have to say.
Come in.
Yes, Philip.
We were done anyway.
Have a seat.
I'm glad you came.
We don't want anyone to get hurt, we want this to be a partnership.
The price for the partnership is 4 million Instead of Amanda You go ahead, I'll catch up.
- Ok, bye.
Dad? Louise, what are you doing here? - What are YOU doing here? What? - What's going on? I'm having breakfast.
That's weird.
I come here just to stay out of the office.
- How long have you been here? Listen - Stop lying.
I'm not lying - Dad! The Company had to make cuts, they couldn't afford to keep me.
I already applied for a new job.
- So you've been lying to mom? I do it for her own good.
What you mean "her own good"? - You know how fragile she is.
Do we have to move? - No, we're not moving.
What if you can't find another job? - It's gonna be alright.
He was in the K7? I'm really sorry, my condolences.
Sorry to disturb you.
Thomas Harding committed suicide 6 months ago.
Anything on Ulrik Schou? Nothing.
- His parents? We're on it.
This is Michael Nielsen from the Copenhagen police.
We found Christian Linde, he's at work.
Can I speak with Martin Juhl Sørensen? No, we're not after you.
- Was he in the K7? I just wanted to know if he was present We can't find Tobias Lundgren.
No one has seen him in 14 days.
Have you searched the house? - We have no authorization.
What do we know about Tobias? Mentally unstable, has lost a case against the State to get the disability pension.
Lives alone, he was there when Jim and Mark got killed.
Ok.
- It could be our man.
The files are in the server, plenty of them.
- Thanks.
We're gonna talk to the soldiers from the K7.
Just bomb those idiots! - People know what's at stake.
understand how hard it is Come here, dammit! I think you should talk with your colleagues.
The chief said something about I need help! - Don't come back without an order! Dad! Mom! I have no brothers or sisters, my family is no big deal.
We want to work with the police, we don't want anyone to get hurt.
No brothers or sisters.
We don't want anyone to get hurt.
- Jim is like an irritating little brother to me.
Philip, there's something you should hear - I gotta talk to Simon and S.
P.
An irritating little brother, you beat him up but no one else can touch him.
Let's just do it.
'Cause today is Joachim's birthday, hoorah, hoorah, hoorah A nice present he'll get You promised not to tell anyone! - Come on you gotta celebrate.
There's nothing to celebrate! - Joachim listen Bodil's death is not your fault.
- You're kind to say that We're all grateful to you for having the guts to try.
Here a little present from all of us.
It's a dreamcatcher.
Thank you.
Happy birthday, Joachim.
It's gonna be fine.
Break it up! Break it up.
We tracked every soldier in that Unit.
Even the last one, Tobias Lundgren.
Where was he? - In a bar in Valby.
He's been drinking for 14 days.
- We hoped it was him.
Did you need me? - Here.
It's them.
- Pick up.
Hello? Who is this? This is Louise.
- Hello, Louise.
We've got your man, Ben.
- I know.
You don't care? We don't need him anymore, you can keep him.
He told us something interesting.
- I bet he did.
About his brother Jim.
I don't know anything about his brother, sorry.
We also spoke to Sammy.
- I don't know anything about him either, where is this going? Would you rather talk to Philip? Mark? Ok, put him on.
