- Think about it until tonight.
- OK.
It's too risky, someone might recognize him.
- He's changed his appearance.
- We have to assume so.
Bjorn recognized him, but only the eyes.
Look for something to do with plastic surgeons after the staged suicide.
- Anything in particular? - Deaths and missing persons.
- Hi, everybody.
Hi, Saga.
- I thought you'd sleep at my place.
- I was allowed to sleep at home.
- Right.

- He slept on my camp bed.
- Now you all know.
- Why was Jens's wife out driving? - Mikaela.
Her name was Mikaela.
- Why was Mikaela on the bridge? - She was going to see her parents.
At 2 a.
m.
midweek? What a strange time to visit your parents with a 7-year-old.
THE BRIDGE Can you look after the children a while? - When? - Around 11 o'clock.
- Why aren't they in school? - They're off.
We're going to the zoo.
- What are you doing first? - I have a meeting here.
- I thought you were on sick leave.
- We're just preparing a presentation.
I don't want the children to disturb.
- Can you take them out? - No, I'm going to town.
It's difficult to move in with me, you don't see much of Martin.
So I've not asked anything of you.
You use our home as a hotel.
But now I need your help.
What is so important you can't help me? I've got a job interview.
A job interview? About a job? Yes, so that I can pay the hotel bill.
OK.
I'll work something out.
- The job's a good thing.
Good luck.
- Thanks.
- Think aloud.
- You and Jens were friends.
- That's why he didn't shoot you.
- Probably.
Is your relationship relevant to the investigation? I don't know.
Jens was a good police officer.
He was a good person.
He wanted to change the world.
- This is different.
- That night on the bridge - She wasn't going to her parents.
- Where was she going? They said that her friend Josefin Samuelsson might know.
- Mikaela was on her way to see her.
- Yes.
- Why was Mikaela on her way? - She and Jens had a row.
She asked if she and Rasmus could sleep over.
- What was the row about? - She wanted a divorce.
She'd met someone else.
Jens went furious and didn't want to see her again.
She didn't dare to stay.
She was coming here with Rasmus.
- Did she tell you who she'd met? - No.
- Did she tell Jens? - No, only that she'd met someone.
- Are you sure? - Yes.
I asked her if she ought to warn him against Jens.
- But Jens didn't know who he was.
- Did she say anything else? - Excuse me.
- No, we were going to see each other.
Why are you asking about this now? They were mentioned as part of an investigation.
- Jens is dead, he committed suicide.
- Yes, we know.
Martin? Why did you leave? The man that Mikaela met It was me.
I wasn't married.
It was long before I met Mette.
Susanne and I were divorced.
She and Julie left me.
Mikaela was having a hard time.
- You weren't married, but she was.
- Yes.
- With your best friend and colleague.
- Can we keep this to ourselves? I don't want the rest of the team to know.
If it affects the investigation, they have to be told.
- Did you know that she'd tell him? - No.
It must have been hard to see him.
Could you have remained colleagues- -if you and his wife had become a couple? Maybe you didn't plan to.
I certainly didn't plan to cause her death.
- You didn't.
- Yes.
She chose to tell him.
He became angry.
Without me there would have been nothing to tell.
Without a bridge she wouldn't have crashed.
- You can't think like that.
- No, but I do.
- Let's go.
- OK.
- Have you got anything? - Well It's cost a lot to do these things.
We looked for properties and transactions.
We checked unsolved robberies and break-ins.
It's brought us nowhere so far.
Do your colleagues know that Jens is alive? - Yes, a few chosen by Lillian.
- What did the friend say? Mikaela told Jens that she was leaving him.
She was scared to stay.
- Why did she leave? - She'd met someone.
Do we know whom? No.
She didn't know, nor did Jens.
- And it doesn't really matter.
- OK.
Saga? Karl-Erik Hermansson was a plastic surgeon.
He died in a car accident.
His practice was close to Triangeln.
- Did he have any colleagues? - A nurse called Elsa Dahlberg.
- Saga, you're doing a good job.
- Yes.
If this leads to anything You're good.
Andif anyone's going to catch him, it'll be you.
- Yes, I think so as well.
- Yes.
- Do you ever praise the others? - No.
- Why not? - I just tell them what to do.
- They're good.
- Yes, that's their job.
- Don't you want praise? - No, that's not necessary.
- Do you think it's important? - Yes, very.
Most people do.
- Do you want me to sing your praise? - Sure.
- What do you want me to say? - It doesn't work like that.
That's like telling someone to say "I love you".
It has to be spontaneous.
Did you miss me yesterday? When I didn't show up in the evening? Yes, a little.
Karl-Erik They said that he killed himself, but I never believed that.
- Why not? - We worked together for 11 years.
I would have known if he was planning suicide.
No, many that commit suicide don't display suicidal tendencies.
And then there was that fire.
Something wasn't right.
- What fire? - At the practice, after his death.
- The entire house nearly burnt down.
- Was he one of your patients? Yes, yes Jens something.
Danish.
I wouldn't have been surprised if he'd committed suicide.
- Why not? - Such extensive changes indicate problems beyond your appearance.
- What did he have done? - The hairline, the nose the mouth, the teeth, changes to the bone structure.
But he became really handsome.
Karl-Erik was good at his job.
Do you have any medical records? There were medical records and computer back-ups.
It was in the same room as the fire.
Can you describe him if we bring in a sketch artist? - I think I've got a photo of him.
- Of him? After the operation? I kept paper copies of some of my patients' records.
I worked from home at times, my husband was ill.
- So you might have some here? - Yes, in the attic.
- Do you know where you put them? - In a box.
- Is it marked? - I can't remember.
It should be a bit further in.
- How far in? - A bit further that way.
It might be next to a typewriter.
There it is.
It's marked "office".
- Is it marked "office"? - Yes, that's it.
There.
- Hi.
- Sorry I'm late.
- Flowers to make you feel better.
- Thank you.
Come in.
This is what he looks like now.
- What do we do? - I'm trying to find his name.
Should we distribute the picture? He doesn't know that his appearance is known.
If no one but us know, he won't be recognized.
None of us will run into him.
To catch him everyone must know.
- He'll find out and go into hiding.
- If there's a leak.
He somehow receives info we distribute.
We'll keep it to ourselves for a while.
- For how long? - We'll distribute it in the morning.
A nationwide alert in both countries and Europol and Interpol.
- Martin? I don't like lying to Hans.
- What have you lied about? I haven't mentioned your affair with Mikaela.
You just haven't told him.
That's not a lie.
To not tell the truth is the definition of lying.
- Has he asked you? - No.
- Did he ask if you're hiding info? - No.
- Then you haven't lied.
- He'll find out sooner or later.
Say that you knew, but that it wasn't relevant.
I'd be lying.
- Is it relevant? - Not so far.
- What a nice house.
- Thanks, we like it here.
- What does your husband do? - He's a policeman.
How exciting.
What kind of crime does he work with? He's an investigator.
He's working on the killer from the bridge, or T.
T.
- Or whatever you call that madman.
- He has his hands full then.
- They seem unable to catch him.
- No, they're closer than we think.
- Mum, when are we leaving? - Later, if I'm up to it.
- You promised.
- That was before I fell ill.
- You manage to work.
- If you disturb me, it takes longer.
- Then I'll be more tired.
OK? - Ok, then - Where are you going? - To the zoo.
I'll bribe them with a film and sweets instead.
- The zoo sounds more fun.
- That's what they think.
- Do you want me to join you? - No, I'll manage.
I'm sure you will, but I can help out.
- If you want me to.
- No, that won't be necessary.
I haven't been there for ages, it'd be fun.
Well, thank you.
That's nice.
Thanks for coming, we'll get back to you.
"Thank you for your interest.
The position has been filled.
" - Excuse me? - If you need help with the wording.

- Knock it off.
- We haven't.

Someone must have been pulling your leg.

I don't know.
I thought it was you.
Yes, well We met anyway, as it turned out.

I want you to know this before the others.
I asked for a transfer.
- Yes, to Gothenburg.
- It's going to happen.
- When? - I want to finish this first.
- And they have to find a successor.
- How long does that take? I don't know, maybe a month.
- Do you know who it'll be? - No.
You'll be fine, you're a wonderful police officer.
- Not everyone thinks so.
- Then they're wrong.
All aren't as understanding as you are.
- I just wanted you to know.
- Thanks.

I have had.
A son.

You need an outlet for your anger.
I work on it every day.
- I don't know what I'd do.
- No.
- What about your wife? Was she? - She'd met someone else.
She wanted a divorce.
I lost her even before the accident.

I'd like to report some strange sounds.
A woman and some children are screaming.
- You write a lot about me.
- Yes, maybe - MILF.
- Yes.
It was just a joke.
- It means - I know, but I don't have children.
Did it matter that I mentioned Anja? He didn't know that we were looking for her.
It was my fault that she died.
We shouldn't have spoken about her.
It was unprofessional.

Isn't that typical? Just when things are getting better Frida made me or the guy I thought was Frida He made me see my father in a new light.
