-[indistinct chatter] -[telephone ringing]

[Reimer] Carin, go and talk to him now.

Wait, no, you don't understand.

-Oh, right. -Uh…

[whispers] Let's talk outside.

[door opens]

Constable Eriksson.

Can you come in a second?

Uh…

-[Rossi] Shall we go? -Ah. Yes, definitely. Let's go.

[Svärd] Since you're our very own cover girl,

you'll be coming along with me to HQ tomorrow.

There's to be a final evaluation of the experiment before their decision.

Oh, I don't think… I don't think I should do it.

-I don't think I'm the right choice… -Well, I think you should.

As does Berg. So that's that.

There's surely someone who…

In case I wasn't clear, this isn't a request, it's an order.

Tomorrow, at three o'clock.

Very good.

THE NEW FORCE

[Reimer] So you're saying is that Svärd is implicated in Monica's death?

Yes, it's either him or it's Jack.

But knowing her doesn't constitute a crime, does it?

Yes, but there's something not right.

She leaves his number at that clinic, and then she dies.

And suddenly, Svärd just closes the case.

Svärd? It wasn't Fischer?

No, it wasn't.

You have to help me.

[Wallin] Feeling all better now?

I was worried yesterday when you didn't show up.

That man, what did you all do afterwards?

Ah. Forget that. There's no need for you to worry.

It's just that I'd really like to know what you…

[claps hands] Ah! There she is!

[Wallin] You see? I told you she wouldn't back out.

When are we going out again… "training"?

-[Wallin] Soon, I'm sure. -Yes, good. See ya… Champ!

[Lund, Andersson laughing]

You're one of us now.

SOLVEIG'S SALON

♪ And I don't need nobody to tell… ♪

[doorbell rings]

-[Carin] Good day. -Hi.

Good day.

Can we help you, constables?

We'd like to take a look around the salon.

-You can look around all you want to. -Thank you.

[Carin sighs]

[Carin] There was a load of equipment here before.

[hairdresser] I'm sorry, constable, but this is just our office.

Can you open this door?

Unfortunately, we don't have the key for it. Sorry.

[Reimer] Open the door.

Open the door now, or I'll do it.

[rattling]

[unlocking door]

[ominous music playing]

Are you happy now? I think a medal from the king is in order.

Hmm?

-We need someone to take over here. -Henriksson. Here.

[Carin] Do you really think it was necessary to bring them in?

[Reimer] Well, they are called "illegal" abortions, aren't they?

Let's go and talk to the Detective Inspector.

Hm… No, look, we can't just pass the investigation over to Fischer.

He doesn't listen. He doesn't care.

All the abortionists are just the tip of the iceberg here.

Is there no-one else? What about Oscar?

What, Constable Eriksson, don't you understand?

Everyone here is part of a system.

Everyone here has their own role in it.

It doesn't matter if Fischer cares or not, he's still Detective Inspector. Come on.

-[man] This was just… -[Fischer] …a complete disaster!

[man laughing] Yes!

[Fischer] What is it?

Constable Eriksson has uncovered an illegal abortion clinic.

After we've interviewed the detainees, I'm sure we'll find out who's behind it.

Write a report, and we'll deal with it when we can.

Of course, um…

Can we speak a little in private… just us?

-It's… It's quite urgent. -[Fischer sighs]

Book…

[Fischer groans]

[Reimer] This is some kind of client register.

-Okay. -Svärd's telephone phone number's in it.

It seems there is a connection between him and the girl we found in the water.

Good, Constable.

Thank you.

-[Fischer] Have a good evening. -You too.

["Hurracan" by The Blind Shake playing]

POLICE

[typewriter keys clacking]

[music stops]

[Wallin] Beer tonight?

Uh, I, uh…

You see, there are a lot of people that I'd like you to meet.

Oh? Really, who's that?

Uh, well, they are a little higher up the chain, you know?

You don't think it's just Lund, Andersson and myself

who want to change things? There's much to discuss.

Unfortunately, I can't. I told Siv we'd do something tonight.

Isn't that true?

Sure.

Then I hope that… that you ladies have a lovely evening.

Thank you.

We'll talk about all that another time. So, I'll see you tomorrow then.

Wait here while I get changed.

[sombre music playing]

[door creaks, closes]

What is it?

I've done something awful.

-[knocking on door] -[Oscar] Can I come in?

Siv?

[Oscar] What's going on?

[Siv] Get out of here.

-Can you come out then? -No, I can't do that.

[Siv] I don't want to talk to you.

What have I done?

[Siv] I saw you.

With her.

With your family.

Siv, I can go if you need to be alone.

No, you don't need to go, we have nothing to talk about.

[Siv] Right?

[melancholic music playing]

[inhales deeply, clears throat]

[melancholic music fades]

[indistinct chatter]

[footsteps approach]

[indistinct chatter]

[chatter continues]

H… hi.

[women continue chatting]

[man] Hi.

-[Arne] Hi. -Hi.

-[Carin] Uh, we haven't met. Hi. -Hi.

-Carin. -Filippa.

Hi.

Uh, I've heard a lot about you… Filippa.

Oh, uh, the same.

Uh, can we… Can we talk in private, for a second?

Oh right, sure. Sure.

We can go up.

-Nice to meet you. -[Filippa] You too.

[woman] Goodbye.

She seems nice.

Filippa.

I should've mentioned that we're still in study group.

There was never a good moment.

No, I know what you mean.

My job, um… didn't turn out like I wanted.

I'll be quitting… the police.

I really thought I could do some good, but…

It's not worth it.

I don't want to lose you.

I want to be with you.

Can you forgive me?

Do you want that?

Yes, I do want that.

But you owe me a dinner.

What?

Gondolen. Do you know how hard it is to get a reservation?

I've missed you, Carin.

[projector whirring]

-[knocking on door] -[door opens, closes]

Are you busy?

Yes, I'm going up to management tomorrow to defend our female police force.

Something I suspect you don't care about one bit.

[laughs] Correct.

I've a lead on some illegal abortionists,

and I've come across an interesting telephone book.

-Mm-hmm. -In which I found your number.

-[laughs] I don't think so. -It couldn't be right, surely.

I called it to check. I was so curious.

And one of your daughters answered. Katarina.

And what's even stranger…

The girl that put you as a contact…

She was the one we pulled out of the canal.

You know, the girl that worked for Jack Hellman.

That case you made us close.

Isn't that just an incredible coincidence?

Hm? For a potential Police Commissioner.

I won't do any more digging here… into this "coincidence."

But I would like you to remember this story.

And how you owe me a little favour.

Good luck with the evaluation, Gunnar.

[door opens]

[door closes]

[water dripping]

[keys jangling]

[door opens]

-Can I go now? -[chuckles] I'll let you go.

If you let go of me.

Do you think you're in a position to make such a...

[grunts]

Yes, I do.

[groans]

Now shut up, you idiot!

Or else I am gonna make you disappear, for good.

Get it?

That's good.

Then I'll call the prosecutor.

And tell him we don't have enough evidence to hold you.

And I hope you are very grateful.

[upbeat instrumental music playing]

[Carin] No. [laughing]

[music fades]

[breathing heavily]

[intense instrumental music playing]

-[lighter clicks] -[music stops]

Siv. Wait.

Will you hear me out?

[door closes]

I didn't mean for you to find out this way.

No, I wasn't supposed to find out about it at all.

-Wasn't that the plan? -No, no, there wasn't a plan.

So you spent the night accidentally with me?

No.

Yes… I have a wife.

What's her name?

[under breath] Fuck…

Her name's Märta.

And how long have you been together?

Uh, eight years.

[exhales]

Why did you lie to me?

Siv, I…

I've never felt anything as strongly…

As deeply as this.

Than when I'm with you.

And that's all.

I think I love you.

Well, simply leave her then.

I can't simply leave her.

My family would just…

I don't know what to do.

[scoffs]

Yes, you can think it's silly, but I can't think that.

It's easy for you, you don't have a family or…

[gasps]

I didn't mean…

-Hi. -Hi.

-Are you all right? -Uh…

[exhales] I had to leave work.

But I thought they were letting you stay behind your desk?

Mm, I thought so too,

but they said that I can't perform my duties because I'm expecting.

But that's simply not true.

Well, look, you know how traditional the men are. What can I do?

[Elisabeth sniffs]

[knocks on door]

These are some very serious accusations.

Yes, I'm aware of that.

So, Wallin and his comrades have organised some sort of subversive group?

Yes. He hasn't told me everything, but, uh… that's my understanding.

Unfortunately that isn't enough to be rid of him.

But you'll be pleased to know that it's… nearly done.

You'll get a new partner.

I have another idea.

That I will continue patrolling with Wallin.

I'll gather more information.

And we'll have a case to really be rid of him.

And you are aware of how dangerous it could get for you?

-Yes, I know. -You still want to do it?

Yes. Or someone must do it.

But it doesn't have to be you.

No…

I must do it.

[inhales deeply]

Well, this will have to stay a secret for now.

-Yes. -Yes.

-Until we know more. -'Course.

It can't be just another loose accusation from the skirt police.

Everyone knows by now you can't trust them.

[soft chuckle]

-Good. -Good.

["Good Cop? Bad Cop?" [by Arre! Arre! playing]

[whistle blows]

-[Rossi] Should we bring them in? -What?

Just joking about.

I heard that they're going to make a decision any time now.

About all of you.

What do you think they'll decide?

What are you playing at?

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry about the pictures.

I didn't mean to upset you.

So the problem's how I reacted?

No.

[exhales]

It was too much for me with the others always laughing at me.

They always come after me.

[breaths deeply]

When you women started, I thought it was gonna be…

Different, that they'd leave me alone.

But then, when you also laughed at me…

That was when I did something I regret.

I'm really very sorry about that, Siv.

It's just not who I am, you know.

I'm sorry too, Rossi.

I didn't mean to hurt you.

Shall we perhaps decide not to be part of all that?

Even if the others are doing it.

I hope you get to stay, you know?

You're really good at this job.

I hope so as well.

[soft chuckle]

[sighs]

[Wallin] Did you have a nice evening?

Uh, yes, it was… it was okay.

What did you do?

-Went to the pictures. -And you saw?

Uh, I don't… I think it was…

[Wallin groans]

[Wallin] Now.

You better not talk about us. And what we do.

Uh. No, of course not.

-You're certain? -Oh, yes, definitely… not at all.

And I've been thinking about what you said,

about those higher up the chain, and meeting them.

Oh?

I think I'm ready for that now.

-You think so? -Yes, that's right…

Hm.

I would say we need to relax.

Hm? Your time will come.

-Yes. -It's coming.

[keys jangling]

In you go.

[door closes]

[Oscar] And are you sure you don't want a lawyer present?

I've done nothing wrong.

-It's you who should be ashamed. -I should be ashamed?

Do you know how many women lose their lives

because no one wants to help them?

-I'm just obeying the law. -The law is the problem.

[Carin] What will happen to the abortionist?

[Reimer] Prison, probably.

And Svärd?

I've no idea.

And we don't even know what he's done yet.

-[Carin] It's just not fair. -We've done what we can.

-Now the others take over. -[exhales deeply]

You can't change the system on your own, you know.

Leave this alone.

[exhales]

[knocking on door]

[Fischer growls]

I was wondering how it's going.

Um… [quietly] have you spoken to Svärd?

We're not doing that.

-But, why not? -I looked into it. It led nowhere.

How can you have looked into it properly when you haven't spoken to him?

Please, Miss, I am not obliged to inform you about our process.

Besides, you and I have an agreement

that you would never set foot in here again.

WANTED

And your son. What's he do for you then?

He doesn't take part, he follows my orders.

[Oscar] And what do you tell him?

[knocking on door]

Yes?

-[Carin] Fischer needs to talk to you. -I'm in the middle of something here.

Well, apparently it can't wait. He told me to keep an eye on her.

[Carin] Just like you, I'm trying to do what's right.

Which is to find out about what happened to her.

She was found dead.

And nobody here cares.

The second someone comes in here, it'll be too late.

Nobody will be held to account.

-What happened to her? -[exhales]

[woman] She was in bad shape.

I wasn't happy to do the procedure, but she insisted. Said she was desperate.

So you did the abortion?

[woman] After a few days, she came back.

Something wasn't right.

So, what did you do?

I did everything I could. But she needed a hospital.

So I helped her make a call, and then…

He came to collect her.

Um… Was it one of these men?

-[Carin] Thank you. -[door opens]

What do you think you're doing? Fischer didn't want me.

Oh? That's what he said to me.

Maybe he just wanted to mess me around.

Say hi to Märta!

[poignant music playing]

-Are you ready now? -Well, I…

[Svärd] The evaluation.

NATIONAL POLICE AGENCY

[tense music playing]

We're ready for you.

[tense music fades]

So, evaluation of the female police force in the Klara Police District.

District Chief Svärd.

The reason for the experiment was to, uh… increase personnel numbers.

[man] Hm.

[Svärd] But also, I was personally convinced

that it would have a positive impact on the entire force.

Right. How have you experienced your initial time here, Miss?

Hm…

District Chief Svärd had a relationship with a prostitute.

That woman was later found dead, then he closed the case.

[dramatic music playing]

[stumbles] I don't know what she's going on about. [nervous chuckle]

I don't understand. Have you gone mad, young lady?

I have a witness able to identify the District Chief.

He was the last person to see the prostitute whilst she was alive.

Did you and this prostitute have a relationship?

[Svärd] She, uh, she sought me out a few months back.

I tried to help her.

[poignant music playing]

I tried.

-[Svärd] We're almost there. -[woman groaning]

[Svärd] They'll take care of you at hospital.

[shakily] Will you…

Will you come with me inside?

Of course.

[breathing shakily] Everyone will know that…

That I'm your daughter.

[sobbing]

[Svärd] It doesn't matter.

Thanks, Daddy.

[breathing shakily]

[breathing trails off]

Everything's gonna be okay, Monica, you hear me?

You hear me, Monica?

Monica?

Monica?

[dramatic music playing]

[gasps]

[loud, heavy breathing]

[sobs]

[Svärd sobbing quietly]

[dramatic music fades]

[Carin] What will happen to Svärd?

[Thulin] The real question is what will happen to the experiment?

We're open to an extension.

Under certain conditions.

What are the conditions?

If you keep quiet,

then a new intake will arrive later in the year.

If you talk,

then we'll shut down the experiment with immediate effect.

Is this how it works?

Hm. I'm just laying it out for you.

Otherwise, you can always go back to the pots and pans.

But you should know, we take good care of our own around here.

It's all up to you.

[Carin chuckles]

-Have you done all this for me? -[Carin chuckles] Maybe I did.

-It's lovely. Thank you. -[chuckles]

[mellow music playing on radio]

I was thinking that…

I want to have a family with you.

[both chuckle]

A home.

You'll come live with me.

-Mm-hmm. -Well, could be a bit small.

If we become three. [gulps]

[both chuckle]

But we can live there until we find somewhere bigger.

Mm.

[chuckles]

-I should have left it in longer. -No, it looks delicious.

-Hm. I don't know. -It does.

-Here. -Thank you.

I think that we… we can wait, um…

A little bit before children.

Why's that?

I'm staying with the police.

[exhales]

-You were quitting. -I know, but some things have changed.

You said though.

Yes, but things didn't turn out that way. So…

-Like what? -[exhales]

I'm sorry, it's confidential.

Arne, look, I can…

Swap the evening shifts,

maybe the weekends…

In the future.

We'll have time together, I promise.

Can't I work until we have children?

This won't work.

What do you mean?

This.

You say one thing and then do something else.

I can't trust you.

Oh, of course you can.

But Arne, you knew I was going to join the police when we met.

I never realised our love would be second.

Please, don't go.

Arne, please…

Take care, Carin.

-[footsteps retreating] -[door opens]

[footsteps approaching]

-[curtain draws] -I thought you might want tea.

Here.

[Carin] I'm okay.

Stop staring.

Oh. But we care about you.

[Siv] Get dressed.

I want to know if we still have a job.

Go ahead. I'll come later.

-Really? -[Carin] Yes.

[closes curtain]

[door opens]

[door closes]

[telephone rings]

Hello, Eriksson.

-[man on phone] Is that Carin Eriksson? -Yes.

Hi, I'm calling from the Outpatient Clinic.

You came in recently for some tests. We've just had the results come in.

All right.

Congratulations!

-Hello? -[Carin mumbles]

What do you mean, "congratulations"?

Well, you are pregnant.

[tense music playing]

[breathes deeply]

[man on phone] Hello?

[tense music builds]

[man] This spring, 14 women began their duty here on the streets of Klara.

An experiment that has now been evaluated.

I know that there are people in here who have been working against you,

who believe that this job isn't for people like you.

But they've been proved wrong.

Therefore, management has decided…

[woman coughing]

…for the force to continue with women in its ranks.

-[man] What? -[women exclaiming, clapping]

-[hushed chatter] -[Siv] We did it.

Aren't you glad?

Uh, 'course.

[Svärd clears throat] But, I won't personally be here

when the new ladies come in.

I've been given other assignments.

[Svärd clears throat]

So from today, we have a new District Chief.

[surprised gasps]

[indistinct chatter]

Damn right.

[Fischer] As you'll soon begin to notice,

I believe in… a very different style of leadership than my predecessor.

A bit more… traditional.

So, what are you waiting for?

Get on with your work.

I don't understand. What's happened to Svärd?

How the hell can they switch him with Fischer?

What happened in that meeting?

Wh… You heard what he said.

We've a job to do.
