- Your brother shot himself. - No, he didn't!

- Did Roland Eklund call you? - It was a wrong call.

EPISODE 2

Yesterday it was reported-

that the Cold Case Group within the police-

has begun to examine the investigati on serial killer Klas Levén.

We've tried to get in touch with Temo Björkman-

who led the investigations, but the police's press department-

says that he is not available for any comments.

Peter... Peter!

You are to stop digging around in my murder investigation-

and go to the media and tell them that they've got this all wrong.

- You'll have to take this up with Ull - No.

Do as I say, and this doesn't have to get any nastier.

You're to back off. Get me?

Back off.

Hi.

What did you just say?

It has to be a mistake.

Are you quite sure?

OK. Yes, I understand.

No. There is no review of the Levén murders in progress.

The Cold Case Group is assisting us in a homicide investigation.

No, but carry on for the moment. Fine Come in.

- We need to talk. - Oh?

We've found DNA on the knife.

Did you get a match?

What is it? Whose DNA have you found?

I'm afraid today is going to be a little difficult-

but I can assist you with the viewing on Sunday.

Sure, I'll bring the brochure. Yes, exactly.

Listen, can I call you right back? Th

- What's up with you? - Sciatica.

It hit me in my lower back. Just like that.

- Rickard was playing with that. - Rickard?

Yes, Rickard. His doggie daycare just came to pick him up.

I was standing there sorting through file boxes, and it hit me...

File boxes? You were supposed to be going through the case files!

Have you been doing that?

- Where is Kajsa? - In some gutter somewhere, probably.

Has no one done what I've asked them to do? This isn't fucking high school

When I get back, you better be doing what I've asked you to do!

- Need some help? - No, no problem.

Sit down.

Freshteh found DNA on the knife.

Apart from the blood, the knife was totally clean.

But we found a small speck inside the handle assembly.

- Ah. Right... But did you get a...? - We got a match from the register.

And here things start to get a little

There's a 90% certainty this fits the DNA profile...

I can explain...

- ...of one Lars-Åke Wall. - What?

- What did you say? - What was the name?

Lars-Åke Wall.

The paedophile from Hallstavik who wa suspected for one of the Levén murder

And very possibly the one who stuck the knife in Roland Eklund.

Shouldn't you be the one doing this, Peter?

OK...

Lars-Åke Wall from Hallstavik. Convic for child pornography offences in the

He was the prime suspect in the murde of eight-year-old Fredrika Jensen.

Fredrika was raped and murdered in...

...a woodland area close to Wall's ho

He was just about to be charged, when all of a sudden Klas Levén showed up-

and confessed to the killing.

And now we've discovered Wall's DNA on the knife we found in Eklund.

Peter?

Ulla wants us to act as an extra reso in Temo's murder investigation-

our focus being to find Lars-Åke Wal

- So he's taken off? - Yes. He been missing for five years.

And now he shows up again, to stab Eklund to death-

and leave behind a note saying Levén is a liar? Why?

That is what we are going to try to find out.

I and Barbro will continue to work he I want you two to drive up to Hallsta

- No, no... No way. - Are you out of your mind?

Come in.

I want to know how you propose handling this.

Ann-Marie, good that you're here. Ann-Marie is our new Chief of Staff.

- Oh. Congratulations. - Thank you.

Stefan Kvarnholt. I don't know if you two have met?

Stefan is a Prosecutor. He worked on Levén investigations, among other thi

You've read the papers. Stefan is somewhat perturbed by what's in them.

Somewhat perturbed?

I want to know how we'll handle the lies that people are spreading.

It'll blow over, Stefan.

One of my best friends has been murdered-

and now the entire investigation is going down the tubes.

The police need to deny that there ar any ambiguities surrounding my verdic

and focus on catching this killer!

We can try to control the spin the media are putting on this-

but not dictate to the police from the top down. It's illegal.

Yes, hi there. Sorry I'm late.

Temo, tell them what you told me about this policeman.

Well, this guy the papers are writing about, his name is Peter Wendel-

and he's been off sick for three yea Mental health issues.

The bosses have moved him to the Cold Case Group-

so that he can't sabotage current homicide investigations.

Well, that was the idea, anyway.

Has anyone spoken with Lena?

No, she's off on some damned book tou She'll be back in a few days.

Well then, my friends... Don't worry. This is going to sort itself out.

- Temo, how's the investigation going? - Good. We'll find him.

Good. Find Roland's killer and this will be old news.

Sounds good. I just want to be sure that we're on the same page here.

Of course! My name is also on these verdicts.

We have to trust that people can tell the difference between gossip and fac

Good. See you all soon.

- Bye. - Bye.

- Is this you? - Yes. I was just about to tell you...

This man, Peter, is my ex-husband.

We have a daughter together but we hardly ever see each other.

But you met this morning. Your stuff is still boxed up, right?

Just go back to where you were, and we'll forget this whole damned th

Markus... Easy now... Like I said, this is nothing.

We're a team. And we have a lot to get done-

before the meeting of Ministers.

How is the draft legislation coming on?

I have a number of points regarding the text I think we should discuss.

Excellent. Good, Well, then...

Ann-Marie, is there anything else we to discuss before we get stuck in?

- No. - Good.

Ann-Marie... Björn has a TV interview on Saturday. Can you come along?

- Yes, I'm sure I could manage that... - Great.

He's some piece of work, this Temo.

What he said about your ex-husband and his mental health. Was that corre

I thought Björn said we'd finished discussing that.

Yes. Sure, absolutely.

- Great. So you'll come along on Satur - Yes. 'Bye now.

Did you miss the turn-off?

- You can't be serious. - Sure, a double room, booked and paid

- But surely the booking can be change - I'm sorry. We're full up.

I assume you'll both want a key?

Kajsa, Jorma? Hi. Christina Svensson.

- You're late. - He took a wrong turn.

So, Fredrika, here we are again...

She was lying here, with her head thrust into the moss.

We found a watch underneath her body.

The wristband presumably broke when he ripped her jeans off.

When he was done, he hit her on the head with a rock...

...hit her repeatedly.

But she was already dead.

She'd suffocated while she was being raped.

Listen, get your coat, would you, and come with me?

- What? Me? - Yes. You see anyone else here?

You're joking? With my sciatica?

I want to check Eklund's apartment.

I don't see the connection between a lawyer and a paedophile in Hallstavik

Just so long as the two of them don't each other while they're up there.

What exactly is it Kajsa is supposed to have stolen?

According to Jorma, some money went missing from an apartment.

Two drug addicts had managed to kill each other.

According to Jorma there was a pile of money there one second-

and that it was gone the next.

- What does Internal Affairs say? - They're not done investigating.

It'll do them good to get away for a while. Don't you think?

I just have to take care of something Wait here.

Vera?

I'm sorry things turned out this way.

I can understand if you got scared yesterday, but...

I haven't gone mad.

Not this time.

Hi...

What I'm trying to say is that it's a good thing-

if you live with your Mum, just for a while.

Listen...

- I love you. - Go to hell!

Leave me alone!

Quiet, Evert.

- He's a lovely boy. - He's still young, that's all.

You don't work as a police any longer

No. Fredrika's murder was the last investigation I worked o

- Why? - I just lost belief in it all.

We found a watch at the murder scene.

The National Crime Lab in Linköping confirmed it belonged to Lars-Åke.

And when the Levén circus rolled into town-

they sent the watch to the Crime Lab in Stockholm for a second opinion.

And there they came to the same conclusion.

Then the Prosecutor went to his own watchmaker to get his opinion

What?

But the watchmaker couldn't say for s it belonged to Lars-Åke-

so they tore up both Crime Labs' rep

and presented only the watchmaker's as evidence in court.

That's insane.

Most people around here are convinced that Lars-Åke killed the girl.

But her parents have with time accept that Levén killed their daughter.

Up until now, at least.

Thanks.

Have you all lived here for long?

Oh, what now...? Fredrika must have been three.

So that makes it almost 20 years.

It's very nice around here...

What in hell are you two doing here?

Something has come up to make us want to take a closer look at Lars-Åke Wal

Our daughter's killer is in prison. If it's not him, who is it?

- Take it easy... - I want to say this!

For us, this is over and done with!

The police found the person who murdered our daughter.

He's confessed, for Christ's sake!

We gather you haven't always been so sure-

that it was Klas Levén who murdered Fredrika.

What made you think that he actually was guilty?

What the fuck kind of question is tha

Because he was convicted, of course. He was convicted for the murder.

What's gotten into you today, Evert?

- Eklund's live-in partner left first. - God, you frightened me!

She wheeled her bike out the back way

but the car was parked in front of the building.

Oh. I see...

How could the killer know she wouldn't come down to the car?

- She took her bike, you said. - Yes. But how could he know that?

After all, she wheeled the bike out the back way.

Maybe there were two of them. Maybe Wall had help.

When she picked up her bicycle helmet he saw her do it.

Look at the window on the top floor.

Pretend as if I'm still there.

Peter, I don't know what to say.

It doesn't matter. Just say something so it looks like you're talking to me

Pretend you're doing a house search.

I've never done a house search.

I don't like this, Peter. I want you to come back.

It'll be fine. I'll call for back-up.

Peter?

Do you see anything?

No, it looks empty.

I'm waiting for back-up.

- Do you see anything? - No.

- Wait. Something just happened. - What do you mean?

I'm not sure. It looks like a glow in there, or light came on, or something

Fucking hell... Barbro, call the fire brigade.

- I'm going in. - Wait!

Peter, wait!

Aw. Goddammit...

Peter!

- Get up. - What...?

Hiya. Have you heard anything?

What? You said they were going to drop the investigation.

OK...

Do your job. Do it. I'm telling you, I'm innocent.

A glass of white wine, please.

- You can charge it to Room 17. - Room 17.

How much is it?

How much is the apartment?

The guide price is 11 million kronor.

- 11 million... - Mm.

That's too much for me!

We can take a look at another.

Cheers.

Thanks.

So you went into the apartment by yourself?

Despite the fact you believed the killer was in there, right?

Then you were knocked down, so you can't give us any kind of description

And neither can you, despite the fact that you encountered him in the stair

So, can you explain this?

What am I supposed to explain?

- Well, where was it taken? - I can't be sure.

No...

Let go.

What the hell are you doing?

Here. Take them.

- Hallo? - Hi.

Can you set your alarm clock for tomorrow? I have to leave early.

- Hi. - Hi.

Dad was here today. He was standing in the stairwell, yel

What?

- So what did he want? - Tell me hasn't gone nuts again.

It's just like last time.

Your Dad is not well. That's just the way it is.

Christ, I hate him.

Why can't he just be normal?

Dad has to... you know, accept that his brother took his own life.

When he decides to do that, then...

Everything will be a lot better.

Come here.

I'd like to sit here and spend a cozy evening with you...

It's OK. You go and work.

Yes.

Wake me up when you're leaving. I have to get up early as well.

- OK. - Good night.

Sleep well.

Peter. Aren't you asleep yet?

Hallo?

- Peter? - Hallo?

Hallo?

- You... impressed me today. - What did you say?

You impressed me today.

You mustn't listen to Temo.

Peter, have you been drinking?

No.

Do you know if I left my stress ball at the office?

Peter, go to bed. We have a long day tomorrow.

Hallo? Vera? What are you doing here?

I'm going to live here. You're my Dad you can't make me stay away!

But what are you up to?

It's time to let him go, and focus on the living instead!

But you can't... No!

Shit...

No! Enough of this shit from these people, already!

- Hi. - Hi.

Uh... come in.

- What... what do you want? - I just wanted to hear how you're doi

- Hi there, Vera. - Hi.

- Coffee? - Please.

Have you been burning something, you two?

- Dad? - Yes?

- Dad? - Yes?

...Wendel claims all convictions against Levén could be wrongful.

Eight separate court judgements show that Levén is guilty of eight murders

Murders to which he himself has confessed.

That a lone policeman should consider knows better than myself as Prosecuto

and eight courts, and the country's Justice Minister, is laughable!

Apart from that, I have no further comments to make.

Yes?

Hi, Peter! I'm impressed that you managed to find the apartment.

Tell me what this is all about, Lars-

Nothing in particular. I just wanted to check up on you.

I hope I didn't hurt you too much.

No problem. You don't have to worry about me.

That's good, Peter. You won't let me down.

Can't we meet and discuss this over a cup of coffee or something?

Hello, Ulla. Has Peter told you about the knife ye

Peter?

I'll pick her up on the way back... - Hey, wait!

What are you doing? Let go of that!

- Hey! Where did you go? - Are you crazy? You fucking madman!

Peter...

Peter. Peter...

Peter!

Peter...

It's alright, Peter. You won't let me down.
