Rule no. 1: Make sure you know everything about those you visit.

Never spend more than 10 minutes there.

Every minute increases the chance of someone coming home unexpectedly.

Don't leave any DNA traces.

Don't waste time getting an expensive reproduction.

Even a simple forgery will take weeks to be discovered.

Sooner or later, one of two things is bound to happen.

You find a work of art so valuable that you never need to worry again.

Or you get caught.

Headhunters

My name is Roger brown. I'm 1.68 meters tall.

You don't need a shrink to realize that needs compensation.

For instance, my house is worth 30 million kroner.

I don't like it, and I can't afford it, but she loves it.

Please come. How often does one of your girlfriends open a gallery?

I told herl had inherited the money. But all I've inherited is bad genes.

This has been an intricate case.

For someone like me to get what he wants, only one thing matters:

Money. Lots of money.

But there is one thing Diana wants more than anything else.

Exactly the one thing I don't want to give her.

Isn't she cute? — real cute.

Diana strom—eliassen is one of those tall, smart beauties.

Those used to being loved. Those who take love for granted.

And there are plenty of men who would give her love.

Men taller than 1.68.

But soon my time will come. My opportunity. I can feel it.

Meanwhile, I play for high stakes. If you don't gamble, you don't win.

- — What are you doing tomorrow? - Why?

We're invited to a dinner.

We're invited to a dinner.

We are invited to a dinner? — yes. We're invited to a dinner.

Are you telling others about us? — there's someone I want you to meet.

This ends right here and now. — please don't...

No, no. You and me do not exist. — please stop it.

An impressive cv, lander. — thank you.

Yes, I believe I'm the right man for pathfinder.

What about life outside the job? — Is there such a thing?

You live here in Oslo, at skoyen, and are married to...?

Camilla. Been married nine years. Two kids. They are in school.

She holds a job? — yes.

At a downtown law firm. — downtown?

Who stays home if a child falls ill? — she does.

Don't they have a maid? — no.

Dog?

Allergic? — no.

How much is your reputation as leader worth?

My reputation? What do you mean?

This work by Julian opie is worth a quarter of a million.

Got any equally expensive art? — I do.

A munch lithograph. The brooch.

Could you estimate its value just by looking at it?

This one consists of a few circles and lines. It's monotone, no texture.

All that makes it worth a quarter of a million is the artist's reputation.

And the same thing goes for leaders? — exactly.

And that is why you will not land this job.

What? — my god, you applied for it yourself.

What else was I supposed to do? — get someone to tip us about you.

Pretend you didn't know about it when we contacted you.

- But... - — it's all a game, lander.

I want you to meet pathfinder's chairman and manager tomorrow.

Listen politely, then tell them that you're no longer interested.

I would seem unreliable. — no.

They would see you as ambitious. Someone who knows his own worth.

Lander, this is your opportunity. — opportunity?

Let me build your reputation.

And I promise you a position which quintuples your income in two years.

In two years? — in two years.

How can you promise this?

Because I have never given a client a recommendation he hasn't followed.

Never? — never.

But how? — the answer starts with an 'r'.

Reputation... — my entire career is based on it.

You have an interview with jeremias lander and pathfinder tomorrow at 12.

The information is in the file. —gmm.

Your wife is opening her gallery this weekend, and I wondered...

Could I attend? — are you invited?

Am I? — are you?

I got an invoice of 357,000 for redecoration at Kasper Hansen street.

Correct. — is that right?

I helped Diana with some expenses. Her gallery opens Friday.

You have to cut your expenses. You may go bankrupt.

I'm working on it.

I have to make you aware how serious this is.

You have overdrawn your account by hundreds of thousands.

There's a call coming in. I'll call you later.

We have a candidate. Jeremias lander, lives at skoyen.

Okay. Got him. When? — a meeting at alfa tomorrow at 12.

Nobody home? — no dog or maid. Wife works downtown.

See you in 20 minutes.

The handler in gothenburg wanted 50 percent.

Ove kjikerud charged 20% to disconnect the alarms, take the art

and bring it to Sweden.

To place him at tripolis was one of my smartest moves.

I was left with 80,000.80,000...

Not even enough for my next instalment on the house.

Something had to be done.

Nice to see you. Thanks for coming.

Looking real good. — not half the guests have arrived.

I don't have the time to greet... — it's absolutely fine.

Congratulations. Great exhibition. — thank you.

Something crazy happened today. I can't tell you now.

But I want you to meet him. — meet who?

This is my husband. Roger brown. — clas greve.

Clas just moved here from the Netherlands. — really?

Excuse me.

Are you on your way? No, a few kids just liven up the party.

What brings you to nonnay? Work? — I inherited my grandma's apartment.

She was nonnegian? — yes.

I just went into early retirement. I came here to redecorate the flat.

You retired? From what? — I was the ceo of a Dutch company.

We developed GPS technology.

Dutch? Not hote, by any chance? — exactly.

Weren't they just bought up by a large American company? Amtech?

You're in the business? — no.

- But why did you quit? - — I won't bore you with job chatter.

I'm in the recruitment business. You won't bore me.

Do you know pathfinder? — of course. Our competitors.

Small, but competent.

I'm sorry, I have to go. Enjoy your evening.

Clas... Pathfinder seeks a new manager.

Someone who can stand up against foreign takeovers.

How about a meeting? — sorry, Roger.

Then lunch. Monday at 12. We could talk about other things.

Art, redecoration, Polish handymen...

Could I have a pen? I'll write down the name of a good restaurant.

You're not used to being told "no", are you?

A farewell present for long and faithful service?

No, I stole it.

Goodbye. Give my regards to your charming wife.

This is my husband. — Roger brown.

Brede sperre, kripos. — we've seen you on TV.

He investigates the art burglaries. — not murder cases?

We focus all our resources on this. We're going to stop this.

Are you also in the art business? — no, I work as a headhunter.

In the recruitment business. Alfa.

One of the partners, then? — why do you say that?

I complimented your wife on her exclusive earrings.

She said they were a present from you. — yes.

The best of us get good bonus deals.

I wish we had those in my line of work as well.

Sperre? We're from vg. Could we have a photo?

Of course.

Roger? Are you coming?

Look at this. The calydonian boar hunt, by rubens.

Stolen by the Germans in antwerp in 1941.

It's been missing ever since. Do you know where it is?

No. — in clas greve's apartment.

What?

Clas' grandmother had a secret affair with a German officer during the war.

But he was arrested, and shot a few days later.

She was scared of being exposed. — and hid the painting?

That's not true.

But it's not genuine. — did the Germans want reproductions?

Why did he tell you? — he asked if I could evaluate it.

Or if I knew someone who could.

You think clas greve has a genuine rubens hanging in his apartment?

Here in Oslo? — yes.

I offered to contact an art museum, to have it moved as soon as possible.

Next week. You don't place a painting like this into a safe—deposit box.

How much do you think it's worth? — tens of millions. Maybe a hundred.

Do you know what I think? That you and I should celebrate.

Celebrate what?

That you opened your own gallery.

And the two of us. — thanks for supporting me, Roger.

Everything is going to be fine. — what do you mean?

That you and I should start thinking about the future.

Ove here. — we have a candidate.

Do you know what the time is? — clas greve. 25 Oscar street.

What, he is grave? — no, his name is greve.

Ove?

Ove? What's happening? — sorry. Natasha is here.

Come again? — meet me at the cabin tomorrow.

No, not tomorrow! It's Saturday. I've got her for the whole weekend.

This is a big deal, ove. We only have a couple of days.

One o'clock! — okay! Great!

You are so sweet. — good morning.

Listen... — yes?

What you said yesterday about the future...

Does it include the sound of tiny feet in these corridors?

Maybe. — don't give me maybe, Roger.

I told you that everything would be fine.

I want that conversation now. — but I have an important meeting.

Do you think I'm stupid? An important meeting?

Was it set up during the night?

I have to go. I'll call you later.

What are you so scared of? — nothing.

Dogs, and you when you're like this.

If you want us to be childless forever, I would like to know.

We'll have the conversation, but now I have an important meeting.

I've tried to talk now for 7 years. — and there'll be 7 more.

If you continue nagging this way!

I didn't mean that.

You will never give me a child.

How many millions are we talking about?

Maybe up to a hundred. — a hundred?!

This happens every time.

I've told you I don't like those things lying around.

You know I always carry weapons.

At home I've got weapons everywhere. Got a gun within reach in every room.

You should get one as well. Sooner or later they'll be coming.

We do it this way: You go to gothenburg and get a reproduction.

We need a good one. I have lunch with clas greve on Monday...

Ove?

Women...

Like I said before I was interrupted by a Russian prostitute...

During lunch on Monday I'll find out when the apartment is empty.

You go to Sweden immediately. Now. — okay.

Shit. No, I can't. I'm busy. — busy?

During the day? — as well.

Natasha's here. I'll make a new film with her.

I've arranged everything with the guys at work.

You're filming her? — I need something to watch.

I just activate the alarm, and the cameras start rolling.

She doesn't know you're filming? — no way.

And the tripolis guards are watching the two of you...?

The cameras are not directed towards the bed!

They see her undress, and a bit of fingering. That's it.

She's cut her hair. Looks nice.

The rest is private. Cool, eh?

The painting is removed in only a few days.

Do you realize how big this is? — she's here twice in six months.

You'll be left with millions.

With that kind of money you can buy her. For the rest of your life.

The one without scampi jelly, and dressing on the side.

That's fine. — thank you.

Will you settle in Oslo now, or will you commute?

Three and a half million, plus stock options.

I'm afraid you take things for granted. Remember you're a foreigner.

Nonnegian companies want...

I don't doubt that your methods will work on most people.

But we've been in this situation before.

You practically dribbled... — dribbled?

You drooled when we met at the gallery. And with good reason.

The problem was only that I was not interested in a job.

But redecoration is not that interesting in the long run.

So if it's okay with you, let's just drop the charade.

Okay. I surrender.

But I still need more data on you. — do you play squash?

Married? — divorced.

Children? — no.

Dog? — yes.

Still in Amsterdam. — In quarantine?

I'll fly down to get him tomorrow.

The GPS business is a tough one?

Your back. — oh. That's from the army.

The army? — I enlisted when I was 18.

After a few years I entered an elite unit which specialized...

In what? — tracking.

Tracking of...? — people.

Missing people. Fugitives.

And the technology came from hote? — exactly.

They produced microscopic transmitters.

I had improvement suggestions. So they recruited me.

Where did you get those scars? — Bolivia.

Were you tortured? — I was lucky. I got out in time.

Sounds like something from a film. — no, you've never seen this on film.

When can we meet with pathfinder? — any time.

When are you back? — the day after tomorrow.

Let's do it then.

Diana?

Out with clients. Home late. D.

No, Murphy. Come here.

This is Diana. I cannot answer the phone right now. Have a nice day.

You're so late.

I tried to call your mobile phone. — I must have left it at the gallery.

Anything urgent? — no.

I just wanted to hear your voice.

That's sweet. Come and sit down, this film just started.

I'm totally beat. I'm going to bed.

Okay.

We developed this gel containing hundreds of transmitters per millilitre.

It adheres to all materials, and is impossible to remove.

You mean trace.

The disadvantage is that trace is hypersensitive to dirt and mud.

I know this from my experience as a soldier.

When you're in, pardon my French, the asshole of the world...

Then you are dependent on your equipment.

Being introduced by brown is of great significance.

His recommendations are vital.

Just a moment.

Great meeting. Thanks a lot. — thank you so much.

When will you write the recommendation?

We have to make a decision first. — what was that?

There are other candidates. We have to consider the total picture.

Did we attend the same meeting?

They were ready to sign the contract here and now.

Well, then your chances are good.

Hi. You go to gothenburg tonight, ove.

The painting has to be traded for money, as quickly as possible.

Hi. I have to talk to you.

Don't look me up this way, lotte. — please. Just two seconds.

I'm sorry if it's my fault you're feeling this way, but we have...

There's really nothing more to talk about.

Do you need money?

I miss you. I miss you so much.

Lotte...

Lotte... don't contact me again.

You look tired. — thank you.

Anything wrong? — no.

A lot to do at work? — quite a bit.

I had a meeting today with pathfinder and clas greve.

Did it work out fine? — no.

He won't get the job? — definitely not.

Tomorrow, I'll call all the other agencies.

I'll make sure he won't get a single job in nonnay.

Why is that?

By the way, did you find your mobile phone?

You said you lost your mobile phone. — yes, I did.

In the gallery? — yes.

Great. More wine? — yes, please.

Ove?

Ove...

Hi. — what are you doing here?

I saw you go down here, and you didn't come out.

I got worried. — about what?

Nothing.

Roger... — yes?

Have a nice day at work.

I love you.

Ove!

Ove, where do you live? — Natasha...

Forget Natasha. Where do you live? — Natasha...

Ove... ove!

Where do you...?

What happened in the garage, ove?

Did you see anyone?

Answer me.

Did you see what happened? Was there anyone there?

Natasha... — what?

What the hell is going on here? What the hell is going on?

Ove, what's the password?

The password for the alarm? — Natasha...

We have to deactivate the alarm. What's the password?

The password! — that's what I'm saying! Natasha!

With sh or sch?

Ove...

Ove, how is it going?

What happened? — you sat on a syringe in my car.

A syringe?

- — You were lucky. - Lucky?!

It must have hit your knee.

Will I die? — you didn't absorb all the poison.

Did you fuck up? — that's not what it's about!

I didn't get it.

Diana had an affair with clas greve. — that's no reason to kill you!

Call 113! — we don't want the police here!

Please, Roger. I need to get to a hospital.

Or else I'll die. — I'll get you some milk.

Milk neutralizes poison. That's what they'd do in hospital.

Bring me some milk!

Call them. — don't do anything stupid.

Then I do it myself.

Just calm down now...

Roger. I would like to talk to you.

Our main research was into the tracking of people.

Microscopic transmitters.

Hello. I'm just visiting the cabin.

I thought you were kjikerud. — no.

It's his car. — yes.

Aren't you some kind of businessman? — I was fired.

May I park the car inside the barn? — 500 per 24 hours.

500?

You could park for free by the roadside.

If you touch the tractor, I want compensation!

What a rush of people today! — I'm just visiting Roger brown.

That businessman? — yes.

What do you want from him? — we have an appointment.

It's none of my business, but...

He probably didn't invite you for coffee and cakes in the cabin.

In the cabin?

And since it's my property, maybe a slight compensation would be fair?

Search!

Hello?

Who are you?

Oh shit...

You're not supposed to be out of bed!

Did anyone ask for me? — no. Get back to bed.

Except for the police. — what?

They're waiting for you in the corridor.

I told them you should have your breakfast first.

Because if you manage to smash the larynx, you're a good fighter.

Ever heard about ko—daw—ying?

No wonder. Do you know how many martial arts there are?

3000. — 3000?

You've got wushu, martial arts from China...

Tahtib, Egyptian stick fighting...

That's him. He's running away!

Freeze! Freeze!

Sunded, I've got him!

Hi, my name is olav sunded, from kripos.

You're a suspect in the murder on the farmer sindre aa.

Come with us, kjikerud, and we'll go through the rest at the station.

Huh?

You are ove kjikerud?

Yes.

Where are we going? — to elverum, for questioning.

I hope you cooperate, so that I can go back to Oslo tomorrow.

Attention, all patrol cars. — In other words, both of them.

Bravo 3—0 here.

Egmon karlsen has reported his truck stolen.

Did karlsen sound sober? Over. — not exactly.

Call bamse pub. It's probably parked there.

Do you think?

Why did you kill the farmer? — I have no idea what you mean.

I'll prove it.

Your Mercedes was parked in sindre aa's barn.

And you ditched his tractor. — I've never heard that name.

Witnesses saw you... — no truck outside the bamse pub.

I've got more urgent matters now. — we've got witnesses.

Check behind kiwi.

We have several witnesses... — damn, there it is!

Call egmon. I see his truck. Probably his son stole it again. Over.

What are you doing, brugd?

Like I said, kjikerud. We have plenty of evidence.

And you still deny everything.

So start feeding me details, because you lost me completely.

Aa's neighbour found you in the ditch beside the tractor.

We developed this gel containing hundreds of transmitters per millilitre.

It adheres to all materials, and is impossible to remove.

I love you.

The same one. The same one.

We have to get out. — no, we don't.

He will kill us all. — relax.

He's rubbed transmitters into my hair! — your hair?

We have to get out!

He'll kill me. He rubbed transmitters into my hair!

He'll kill me! — calm down!

We have to get out!

Hi, this is Diana.

Hello?

Hello? Roger, is that you?

After this, we'll go to forensic.

And then we'll have a look at kjikerud's house.

"Hi, I'm a single girl from gjovik. You're nonnay's sexiest policeman."

"And the best. Would you like to meet me? I agree to most everything."

What the hell happened here?

Lotte, wait.

What do you want? — I need help.

Please. — what happened?

I don't mean to involve you in this. — In what?

When they ask, don't lie. Just tell them I was here.

Tell them I forced my way in.

What has happened?

Wait here. I'll get something to rinse it with.

Got some scissors?

Lotte, who are you contacting?

Give me that phone! — stop it.

"Roger is alive. He is in my flat." — it's not what you think...

What's happening? — I don't know!

What's happening? — I don't know!

It's not my fault! — what's going on?!

Please... — what does greve want from me?

It's the pathfinderjob. — you don't kill people for a job!

It's about billions.

They worked on this for months. Ever since pathfinder sought a new ceo.

Who are "they"? Who are "they"? — clas.

He still works for hote. — what?

What?! — they have massive economic problems.

Amtech demands that hote provide them with pathfinders' technology.

This was clas' assignment. — are you all insane?

I was to get to know you, then introduce you to him.

But he had to change plans, since you didn't want to see me anymore.

He had to find a way to meet you.

His grandmother had an old reproduction of a rubens painting.

He made up a wild story that she had gotten it from a German officer.

He told Diana the story, and she believed him.

Then he met you.

The only thing I've done is to rub transmitters into your hair.

Did you do that?

Did you smear that shit into my hair?!

And Diana? — what?

Is Diana involved? — I think so.

You think so? — I didn't want this to happen!

I just want to get away from him. Please help me.

May I have a glass of water?

Lotte! Lotte!

The suspect died in the accident, with three of the four policemen.

The last police officer is still missing.

Military divers are now searching along the river.

Diana.

Roger?

What happened to...

You?

Don't look at me that way.

I know why you left. There's nothing more between clas and me.

I tried to tell you in the garage, but I couldn't.

What do you know about...? — I have to tell you this now.

I didn't want it to happen. But you hurt me.

He was so easy to talk to, and I just...

I couldn't stand it anymore.

But it was wrong. And I'm so ashamed.

Because you are the one I want.

If you really think we shouldn't have children, we don't need to.

I'm willing to do anything.

You really love me?

You must never doubt that. Promise me.

And you didn't know anything. — about what?

You didn't know anything.

Oh my god. What has happened?

Come here.

Dog bites are very serious, Roger. You have to see a doctor.

It's not that convenient right now.

Hold this.

What are you planning to do? — I don't know.

They'll soon find out who died in the accident.

I have to remove evidence.

And then?

I have to get away from here. Make a new start.

Maybe you and I could...

I can wait a while before I report it stolen.

I have to clean these too.

Did you love her?

How could you be so goddamn stupid?

Steal works of art, to buy things I don't need?

Who do you think I am?

You have asked me what I'm scared of.

And I've been scared since I first met you.

I've been scared that you would leave me.

Scared that we would have a child which you would love more than me.

And I've been scared that you would see me as I really am.

And hate it.

I have to meet you. Diana.

I'm sorry about this, greve. — It's quite all right.

Roger brown is on an unexpected journey abroad.

Sounds exciting. — to save an important contract.

But you're in safe hands now. There are only formalities left.

So it won't take very long.

We were supposed to change a fan in b4.

We've been in and out the whole day, but this card doesn't work.

Forensic institute

Thank you.

Hello, guys. — hi.

Sorry, we're a bit behind here.

A lady just got in who's been lying dead on heating cables for two weeks.

Any thoughts on this? — typical car accident injuries.

The cause of death is internal haemorrhages.

Where are the peanuts? It says here there was a bag of peanuts.

Well, I didn't eat them.

Has anyone unauthorized been here? — to steal a bag of peanuts?

Who's that?

What the hell is going on here, Roger?

Are you removing evidence? Think you'll get out of this?

What the hell?

So you realized the transmitters were in your hair?

And that it was lotte...?

That's why you killed her? — does it feel like a loss?

I'll give you a choice. — lotte's death?

If you tell me what's going on, I'll shoot you in the head.

If not, a bullet in your stomach. — don't you feel anything?

What do you want to know?

I'd like to know if people like you really exist.

People like me? — yes.

People who are not capable of love. Who are without empathy.

Empathy? — yes.

If you want the answer, just look in the mirror.

Yes.

I'm not like you. — you're not?

I have loved someone. — you have loved someone? Diana?

You have loved her? I'm afraid I have bad news for you.

She tells me she longs for me. She wants me.

And I'm only human.

Have you ever loved anyone? Except for your dead dog?

I haven't got time for this, Roger. I'm meeting Diana tonight.

You went and got the hair? You knew I'd be coming for you. Why?

A shot in the stomach means a slow death. You'll beg me to kill you.

So I ask you for the last time: Why am I here?

What are you smiling at? Why am I here?

Hold it right there!

Do you know why I was smiling, clas?

Because you just proved that Diana loves me.

She didn't come to you because she wanted you.

She came to change the cartridges in your pistol.

She exchanged the bullets in your gun for blank cartridges.

Or what do you call them in Danish? Blanks?

What are you talking about? — she hates you.

She wants you to die.

But I will give you one chance.

I have no idea how many bullets Diana managed to switch.

This is not like you, clas...

Is it over?

Yes.

I may not know myself, but I know others. And that's what I gambled on.

Welcome to this press conference, led by the Oslo police and kripos.

I had prepared well.

The police would find the pistol from the crash on kjikerud's night table.

This pistol also killed lotte madsen, whom the press called greve's lover.

How the "art burglars" ove kjikerud and clas greve killed each other...

Was watched by the whole world on the Internet.

The police would find that the pistol greve fired,

was identical to the one that killed ove.

He should never have picked up that gun.

We are pleased to present a breakthrough in the case.

But even though I had done everything right,

there was one thing I could not change.

Ove was already dead when I shot greve.

But brede sperre is nonnay's most renowned investigator.

Unsolved cases is not his style. Especially after vg called him:

"The man who makes nonnay sleep well at night."

Because he is competent? Obviously.

But mainly because he knows what it takes to get ahead in this world.

And what would that be?

As you know, the investigation was both long and difficult.

The answer starts with an 'r'.

Reputation.

It gets you on TV, and provides you with sms's from unknown women.

We think they celebrated the theft, and that it got out of control.

They end up torturing a dog... And killing the farmer.

That's correct.

For sale

have a nice day. Both of you.

We are ready. — send in the candidate in one minute.

Ferdinand... thank you.

Hi. I'm sorry. Please sit down.

I asked you to come here because we are at the end of

a long and dramatic hunt for pathfinder's new leader.

In the last round, he could not leave his position.

Without promising too much, I think I have persuaded him.

Please welcome... jeremias lander.

Nice to see you again.

My name is Roger brown. I am I.68 meters tall.

And you know what? That's more than enough.
