Original subtitles

They know your alibi is bogus.

Your lawyer says don't talk to the police.

- What did you do on 31st October? - My client refuses to comment.

Instead you should find the man who used his email, car and flat.

Olav Christensen has an alibi.

He's mixed up in this. Check him out.

On your pay slip it says an additional 5,000 is paid every month.

Where does it come from?

But Bengt is coming to teach on Monday

and then we'll talk. We'll work it out.

- Someone wants to talk to you. - He hasn't been to school all week.

- I'll talk to him. - / want to talk to you.

Are you still a suspect?

- Are you a suspect? - Did you email Nanna?

Fucking murderer!

Some people want you investigated by the Electoral Commission.

Do you have anything to do with the case?

No, I don't. Do you?

If they don't find him, you'll have to tell the truth.

We've been through that.

I wrote down what I want to say.

- What about your husband? - What about him?

- Witnesses should come fon/vard. - Waive the reward.

We'll get a bunch of useless statements from people who lie.

- I know what I'm doing. - Then sit down with us.

Do you have time?

The clothes go in plastic bags.

I'm going to pick up the boys now. And when I come back

I want you to be gone.

Check out Olav again.

He may not have used the flat himself.

- Maybe he lent it to someone. - Who?

I'll have to talk to him in person. Otherwise I'll spill the beans.

Who were you talking to?

If you've done something wrong, let's talk about it.

- We need to talk. - I'm busy.

I'm Olav. I've helped you.

- He said you needed the flat. - What flat?

- I gave him the key. - Who are you talking about?

- Hello? - Yes.

- We've found Olav. - Where'?

If you're near the town hall, you should be able to see him.

THE KILLING

We're putting out a search for a hit-and-run driver

in a white station wagon that hit and killed a pedestrian

behind the town hall. The make of car is unknown

but the lefi' side- view mirror is damaged as well as the from'.

Did you see the driver?

It looked like he hit him deliberately.

- What do you mean? - He should have seen him.

- Has the lord mayor arrived? - No.

Search Olav Christensen's office. Get his computer.

Question his colleagues in the department.

Check if any of the employees drive a white station wagon.

- Was it premeditated? - No skid marks.

The driver had time to react.

Maybe he picked his nose or was on the phone.

- Let's talk to the lord mayor. - We're supposed to get Hartmann.

The parking attendant saw Bremer talk to Olav in the basement.

They say he died immediately.

- They're sure it was Olav? - He's been identified.

Troels, you have to tell the police where you were that night.

- I don't have time now. - Is he dead?

- Yes. That's all I can say. - Now what?

- Morten overheard a conversation. - I know.

- Stop it! You have to tell us. - You're looking at his finances.

- We don't have time for this. - Hartmann risks getting the boot.

There will be more at stake if you keep bothering us.

Am I above suspicion? You're investigating him.

Is that what's going on? Is it?

The group wants to be informed. Lisbeth is in our office.

Come.

You had a meeting before his accident.

Not at all. He contacted me in the parking structure.

You didn't have a meeting?

No. I've never spoken to him before.

- He said he'd helped me. - With what?

I didn't understand him. He talked about the key to a flat.

- What flat? - I have no idea.

He misunderstood. He had me confused with someone else.

- What did he say about the flat? - Why is this a case for CID?

It wasn't a traffic accident.

- It was a hit-and-run driver. - You're on the Nanna case, right?

- And who are you? - My name is Phillip Dessau.

He's my press adviser. Is he right about this?

- We're trying to get a perspective. - Tell me what this is about.

Did he mention any names?

Not at all. He realised he'd made a mistake.

Every month, 5,000 kroner extra were transferred to his account.

No one can tell me what the money was for.

The lord mayor has nothing to do with this civil servant.

Someone gave the civil servant the idea that he worked for you.

Is that an accusation?

I'm trying to find a connection.

It's very difficult.

Does this affect our situation or Hartmann's?

It's too early to say.

Dessau will provide you with information.

Keep me informed on a regular basis. Thank you.

After the mother's appeal

several witnesses have come fon/vard in the Nanna case.

The police have searched the Liberals' office

and Troels Hartmann's home.

Hartmann has been questioned, and it's been such a strain that...

I've agreed to meet the sexton at the grave.

- What about Mum and Dad? - It'll just be us.

And Theis?

I understand that you're angry, but you have to talk to him.

Obviously he shouldn't have packed her things, but...

But what?

He didn't do it to upset you.

At some point in time, you have to move on.

It's important to find the killer

but not more important than you and Theis.

You don't understand. You just don't get it.

Nothing is more important. Not even me and Theis.

If you had told me what Nanna was up to...

...then maybe I could have...

I can't trust the two of you.

I just can't.

Anton and Emil. Dinner!

No. He turned the phone off.

Talk to people, but don't start any rumours.

Let me know.

I'll take a drive around.

- What did he say when you saw him? - Nothing.

- He must have said something. - Nothing.

I was watching TV when he rang the doorbell.

He mumbled something about it all being his fault.

And you let him go?

How could I know he'd been chewed out over here?

Does he know that the urn will be buried tomorrow?

Yes, I guess so.

We trust you, but they say you won't talk to the police.

- I have talked to them. - But won't say where you were?

- I have everything under control. - You're our candidate, Troels.

- The group has a right to know. - Tell them we can meet tomorrow.

There's a meeting about your candidacy tonight.

The police have questioned several civil servants today

- They're searching Olav's office. - Are they sure he did it?

- He's received some extra money. - The investigation is progressing.

- But it's not official? - No, but Bremer knows.

- The police have talked to him. - The meeting's started.

Bremer and the other leaders are meeting.

He knows I'm not a suspect.

But as long as it isn't official

he can take advantage of the situation.

What's going on?

Tell the police where you were.

I have always respected Troels Hartmann

as a hard-working and clever politician.

But the evidence is against him

and he seems unable to give a credible explanation.

Therefore, I see no other recourse

than to vote for Troels Hartmann coming before the Electoral Commission.

- But he hasn't been charged. - We all know Troels.

I think I've known Hartmann longer than any of you.

I understand how you feel.

Specially because you were about to enter into an alliance with him.

It's our duty to maintain the public's confidence in the political system.

We must ask ourselves how long our credibility can withstand

that such a prominent member of our assembly

is questioned daily as a suspect in a murder case?

Sorry to interrupt

It has slipped the chairman's mind

that the police are investigating the case here at the town hall.

If I can shed some light, I'll be more than willing.

What do you say to that?

- The floor is yours. - Thank you.

I know you're worried about any damage the case may have caused.

We've been discredited.

But reporting me to the Electoral Commission doesn't solve anything.

I have nothing to do with the case.

Fax it over here at once.

It'll soon be proven.

The police are searching

the civil servants' office as we speak.

I'll pick up Mark after the party and talk to him.

See you. Bye.

What?

Several of Olav's colleagues noticed that he was distracted.

He seemed nervous and often made calls in private.

What about the money?

No one knows. And not what he did in return either.

We have traced the call that Morten Weber overheard.

A call was made from a phone in the library.

We don't know who made the call?

- They've had many conversations. - The number was often called.

Check the phones in the library for evidence and question the personnel.

I think I've found what you were looking for.

I worked my way backwards in the accounts and stumbled on...

The money wasn't directly approved by the finance committee.

I found out who approved the money for Olav Christensen.

Someone in the town hall

has bought Olav's services and silence

with the help of funds paid by pay office.

You neglected to inform the city council

so you could dispose of me. That is not going to happen.

We've traced the money Olav Christensen has received.

It's true that the money was paid by the pay office

but it was in connection with environmental reports

made for the Copenhagen schools.

The money was paid for consultancy services

from the mayor of school's budget.

Why would we pay a civil servant

who works in administration to read environmental reports?

Your office appointed Olav Christensen for the job

because he used to work for Environmental Management.

That can't be right.

It's a mistake.

I didn't do that. Of course I didn't.

The material has been manipulated. Jens, you know I wouldn't do that.

Obviously someone has fiddled with.

Troels Hartmann. Is he under arrest?

Are you a suspect?

Hartmann? Hartmann?

Piss off!

Shall we get it over with?

If you want a life in politics, you'll vote as I do.

If you're smart, you'll get the rest of your alliance to do the same.

Let's go.

732.25 kroner.

And 20 euros.

Master and Visa cards.

Please remove your jacket and place it on the chair.

And your tie. Please remove your tie.

Thank you. Place your shoes on the table, please.

Thank you.

Lift your arms, please. I have to search you.

He approved the money for the civil servant.

It's a bit complicated, but that seems to be the case.

Good. Send it to the prosecutor right away.

- Has he commented? - No, not even on the charges.

He has food for thought.

We have to find the hit-and-run driver.

Just concentrate on the burden of proof against Hartmann.

No one in Hartmann's department has heard of the arrangement.

- Hartmann tried to fire the man. - Exactly.

- I'd like to investigate it. - Everything points to him.

Perhaps you're not objective when it comes to Hartmann.

What the hell does that mean?

- Call me if there's any news. - Maybe we should give it a chance.

When Lund gets an idea, there's usually some truth in it.

Don't trip yourself up.

You found out that Hartmann doesn't have an alibi.

It's time to take credit for your own work.

The car is damaged.

Call the repair shops and let me know.

- Lund? - I have to leave now.

- You have to listen to me. - Talk to Jan Meyer.

He didn't kill that girl. It's absurd.

- So he should tell us where he was. - His honour won't allow it.

Then good luck with the judge.

- Let me talk to him. - No way.

He's about to be excluded from the election.

Do you think this is a joke?

If you know where he was, I think you should tell me.

Tomorrow there'II be a preliminary hearing in Hartmann's case.

He is charged with the murder of 19-year-old Nanna Birk Larsen.

Based on this, the city council has decided

to report Hartmann to the Electoral Commission.

This is tantamount to stopping Hartmann's candidacy...

Does it have to be so loud?

Was the party fun?

It was OK

I know you haven't been to school all week.

I understand that's it weird to go back after having said goodbye.

And I know it's been confusing, but you can't skip school.

I won't have it.

Do you understand?

Is it OK if I go and stay at Dad's for a couple of days?

When did you discuss this?

- Is it OK? - No, it's not at all OK.

Why not? I just spend all my time with Grandma.

You know what he's like. He forgets your appointments.

You know how upset you get over it.

They just moved here. Their things aren't in order yet.

Where were you all week?

There's more order at their house. They have a room ready for me.

That may be, but it's not going to happen.

I know I've been busy, but...

Nothing has changed.

Everything is still the same.

Everything is not the same, and you damn well know it.

This is Bengt Roslin. Leave your name and number.

Hi, it's me.

It's Saturday.

I don't know when your plane lands tomorrow.

...but I'd like to see you.

Or it can wait till your class is over on Monday or...

I'm sorry that...

I understand if...

I just want to see you and talk to you.

If you have time...

Please call me and tell me when we can meet.

Bye

Hello? Is that you, Bengt?

Hello?

Who is this?

DAY 14

SUNDAY 16 NOVEMBER 9:08AM

Here he comes.

See you.

- Is he moving out? - Just for a few days.

First the Norwegian, then junior. I hope your mother stays put.

Anyway...

- Any news about the car? - No.

We have to check the town hall parking structure.

Brix found this. Information on a property.

Hartmann has a cottage he didn't tell us about.

- Brix is there. Do you want to come? - Yes.

Hartmann inherited it from his wife.

People say he's hardly been here since.

On the weekend Nanna disappeared

two neighbours saw a black car in the driveway Saturday morning.

The description fits the campaign car she was found in.

- Has anyone seen him? - No.

But his prints are fresh.

There's also a newspaper

from Friday, 31st October.

Also with his prints on it.

It was taped over the broken window.

- Why didn't he use his key? - He mustn't have had it on him.

He needed an isolated place.

He thought of the cottage.

He didn't have the key, so he broke the window.

Then he covered the windows, so no one could look in.

The utility room has a cement floor.

That's where she was left tied up.

I'll talk to the judge on duty.

Let me know when you find hard evidence.

- Can I count on you? - Of course.

Forensics didn't mention gas.

If you covered the windows, so no one knew you were here

would you park your car in plain sight?

No.

We'll check out the hit-and-run driver.

- What do we tell Brix? - He's talking to the judge.

This is Charlotte.

One moment.

It's the undertaker.

Tell him I'm on my way.

Bring the cart and the new slings.

And don't lose them.

- Have you heard from him? - No.

So you don't know...

There's an office job from Brondby to Enigheden.

I sent Franz and Rudi there.

Maybe you should call him.

I'm glad you're taking care of the business. See you later.

I think he's... I'll try to get a hold of him.

Hi. I was told your sister is here.

- Why do you want to know? - I have a few questions.

How sure are you that it's Hartmann?

I can't talk about it.

The reward helped. Didn't it?

I don't know yet.

I've told you everything.

You're the only one who has heard about the affair.

- What about Hartmann? - What happened over the summer?

It could be details that seem inconsequential.

I've read the emails they sent from your nightclub's dating site.

I don't work there anymore.

He wants to see her, but her answers become more and more sporadic.

Did she say it was over?

No, but I could tell that the relationship was cooling off.

- Did he see her at the nightclub? - No.

What about the first weekend in August?

On the Friday he writes that he's leaving the next day.

He's desperate to see her.

He called her from a phone we can't trace.

I remember that day. We had a VIP arrangement.

I remember something.

I asked her to put her phone on silent because she got so many messages.

- Did she say who they were from? - No. And she didn't answer them.

At one point, she asked me to take her orders

because she had to talk to someone outside.

- Did you see who she met? - She went over to a car.

- What kind of car? - I don't know.

- Was it a sedan? A station wagon? - Possibly.

- Did you see the driver? - No.

Did you notice the make? Any distinctive features?

Nothing at all. Are you sure?

It was white.

The Secretariat asked us to vacate the premises.

We have to be out of here tomorrow morning.

It won't be decided until tonight.

Don't you get it? He's in custody.

The Electoral Commission has met.

The lawyer is going to talk to him. We'll find a solution.

As long as Troels won't talk, there is no solution.

Can't you pull some strings? What about your father?

He must have connections.

Tell me what happened. What did Troels do that weekend?

I don't know.

When I called to say Troels was gone, you were cool and calm.

You calmed me down and said he was drinking.

You weren't worried because you knew where he was.

What was he doing?

I promised him never to tell anyone about it.

What's the big secret? Was he with another woman?

No, of course not.

Was it about his wife?

Answer me. It was their anniversary.

What did he do?

You have a visitor.

Your shoes.

Sit down.

I need your help.

The night in the flat.

Did you notice a white station wagon?

Was it in the courtyard when you left the flat?

Or in the street?

Does anyone at the town hall drive a white station wagon?

As far as I know, I've been arrested for driving a black one.

If you're looking for a white one, what the hell am I doing here?

You can thank yourself for your imprisonment.

I know what you did that night in the cottage.

Rolled up towels under the door, mattresses in front of the windows,

newspapers in all the cracks and an open gas oven.

Maybe you were interrupted. Maybe you chickened out.

I just need your help to move on.

- You don't know shit. - Don't I?

It was your anniversary. Your diary revealed the rest.

The doctors advised your wife to take the treatment.

She refused. She was pregnant, and it would harm the baby.

I think you feel guilty. And I think you gave up that night.

And that frightens you so much

that you'd rather stick to your story than admit it.

So now you're here.

Will you help me?

You don't really have much to lose.

I'll call if I need more. Great. Thank you.

Here's the list of the white cars that park regularly under the town hall.

Data from the toll bar confirms that a car left the structure

right after Olav had talked to the lord mayor.

- Which one? - Second from the bottom.

Phillip Dessau. He's the lord mayor's adviser.

He was late yesterday when we talked to Bremer.

- What do we know about him? - A wife and two kids.

- He's the lord mayor's right-hand man. - And the car?

It hasn't been in the parking structure since.

He came to work in his wife's car today.

Would you like to lower the urn?

Is it Nanna?

Yes. She's ashes now.

Why?

So it's easier to get to heaven.

- Isn't that true? - Yes.

- When is Dad coming? - A little later.

Why not now?

- What's that? - The wreath arrived this morning.

- From whom? - There wasn't a card.

It's lovely.

- You must know where it came from. - Place these down by the urn.

Well done

Take it away.

I don't want this plot. There must be another one.

You chose this one.

I don't want to bury her here. Find another place.

This spot is lovely.

We all agreed that this was the perfect spot.

I don't want the wreath or this plot.

- There's nothing I can do. - I can't see the problem.

It wasn't a problem before.

If you want another plot, you'll have to talk to the office.

- Have you found him? - No. No one has seen him.

A wreath arrived without a name. She's getting ideas.

Rudi and I and the boys bought a wreath. Is this it?

I didn't know what to write, so I just asked them to deliver it.

When is Dad coming?

What the hell? You fag.

What the fuck are you doing?

Fucking idiot!

There he is!

Hold him.

What the fuck?

Fuck you, man.

_ Hey! What are you doing? - Let's g0!

Are you OK?

- Want me to call the police? - No.

The evidence is circumstantial.

The judge won't extend your custody.

But if they find evidence in your cottage, you'll have to stay.

The more you tell me, the more I can help you.

Do you understand?

I'll come back tomorrow. Let me know if you want to talk.

What's going on at the town hall? What's going on?

The Electoral Commission complied with Bremer's wishes

- and made their final decision. - Final? Are you sure about that?

It will be officially passed by the city council tonight.

- What time? - I'd rather talk about your defence.

Can you get me a copy of the statute?

I need to know something about the Electoral Commission.

Get Brix. Say I'm ready to talk about what I did that weekend.

- Let's talk about it. - I don't have time.

Contact the prosecutor

and make sure the police drop the charges before nightfall.

The earliest you'll get out is Wednesday.

Just do as I say Give this to Morten.

I can't.

All it says is that he should tell the truth.

I have to get out of here by tonight.

Please help me.

The Electoral Commission will approve the decision at 8:30pm.

Hang on a minute.

- The lord mayor isn't here. - We'd like your help.

- Could you come back tomorrow? - It's about Hartmann.

It'll only take five minutes.

I'll call you back in five minutes.

- What can I do for you? - Just a few questions.

Before the poster party, there was a gathering in Hartmann's office.

- Were you there? - Yes.

Did you see him at the party?

No. I had work to do.

- But you were in the town hall? - Why do you ask?

- Perhaps you saw him. - No. I was in my office all night.

Your meeting with Hartmann on the first weekend of August...

What?

Hartmann says you met that weekend.

I didn't meet Hartmann.

- Are you sure? - Absolutely. Is that what he said?

- Yes, he said so. - The first weekend of August?

No, I was in Latvia with the lord mayor.

- We left on Saturday morning. - Interesting.

- Is that all? - Yes... Just one more thing.

- Can we have your car checked? - What?

Hartmann says he got the key to your car by mistake.

He didn't realise it until he left the parking structure.

He says he drove my car?

That's what he says.

We're in doubt, but we want to be sure.

You want my car?

Obviously you'll get a loan car in the meantime.

- It isn't here. - Then where is it?

Why do you need my car?

It's just routine. We want to...

- What's going on? - They're questioning me.

Not at all. We have some questions about Hartmann's movements.

Is that why you questioned the attendant about Dessau's car?

If you want more information, have your boss contact my lawyer.

He'll contact him tomorrow. Thank you for coming.

What the hell was that about?

A white station wagon with plate number YJ 23585.

The car needs to be investigated for forensic evidence.

If he called Nanna 21 times from Latvia

someone must have noticed.

There were ten people who went with them to Latvia.

Seven of them were businessmen.

Anyone that wasn't from Bremer's camp?

Just the one. Jens Holck from the Moderates.

Get the address.

Jens Holck.

I see you're awake.

I'll turn the light on.

How are you feeling?

Where are my things?

You were assaulted.

- Possibly robbed. - Where am I?

The Holy Cross hostel.

You were lying in the doorway in Skydebanegade.

You didn't want to go to the hospital or call home

so we brought you here.

You spoke of your daughter.

The others told me that you are Birk Larsen.

You can spend the night here.

I'll get you some soup.

No. I can't stay here.

It seems to be just what you need.

- Perhaps we can help you. - No.

Neither you nor he can help me.

I'll get you some soup.

- What would you like for dinner? - I don't know.

- Dad's big pancakes and jam. - OK.

Then we need milk and eggs.

- Can you watch the boys? - Sure. Why?

You go to your aunt's house and have pancakes. OK?

Aren't you coming?

No.

Let me off here.

Let's go home. I'm sure Vagn has found Theis.

Let me off here, please.

I asked you to let me off!

It had been under way for a while.

Then it was poster day

and the election was on.

So I went to the flat to write the speech I was to give.

And suddenly it hit me.

I missed her...

...and started doubting myself...

...and if I was worthy of all this.

All this rubbish.

- And then I got drunk. - Because it was your anniversary?

I left the flat after two, three hours to go over to Rie's.

But then I couldn't.

So I hailed a cab and drove to the cottage.

She loved that place. It was hers.

I didn't have a key, so I had to smash the window.

You say you were alone there.

I was alone.

And I don't know how or why...

I still don't know.

Maybe because I was drunk and stupid and pitiful.

But suddenly the thought struck me...

...that it was best if I ended it all in our cottage.

So I turned on the gas and laid down and waited.

Got a minute?

When I woke up the next morning, the door had blown open.

I was sure that I had closed it.

It was as if she had interfered. "I won't have any of that".

Morten came and found me...

...and drove me back to the house

where I stayed until I went to the conference centre.

Morten Weber corroborated the story to me.

You haven't told us this because you're in an election.

And you were worried about your reputation.

So far, everything I've told you has been in the media.

How would you feel about voting for a man

who might kick the bucket at any time?

Furthermore it was in deference to my girlfriend, Rie,

whom I had hoped to keep out of it.

Can you imagine what she'd say to what I've done?

Yes. Of course I can.

That's the way it goes.

- Take him back to his cell. - I've told you the truth.

Morten Weber confirms his story.

I'm sure he does. He can be charged as an accomplice.

Listen.

I have to get out of here.

I have to get out now.

Have him call Morten Weber. OK?

Is that from forensics?

Give me hard evidence that Nanna Birk Larsen was in that cottage.

Not one strand of hair.

There was blood in the utility room.

Yes. Fish blood.

Brix here. No, I haven't. Why?

I understand.

Thank you.

Has Lund put out a search for Phillip Dessau's car?

We believe he's hiding it to cover his tracks.

He's probably the hit-and-run driver.

His wife and children are at Soro police station.

They were stopped. The car doesn't have a scratch.

That can't be true.

Where is Lund?

Jesus Christ!

I was invited because of my family's experience with Eastern Europe.

I only saw Dessau on the plane over and then back again.

- Did he keep to himself? - We went our separate ways.

Bremer and Dessau stayed in Riga, and the rest of us went to Saldus.

- Did Dessau make many calls? - I don't remember.

I have to go now. I have an important meeting.

Do you still have the itinerary?

Hotels and the like. It would be a big help.

I'll go and check.
