SALZ ARCADES

PAGAN PEAK

Hello, Rainer.

Wolfgang... He had an accident.

What?

We don't know what happened.

Two workers from Göberl found him early this morning.

He's in hospital. He might have had a stroke.

He must have fallen from the deer stand.

He's not conscious yet, but...he's alive.

Are you OK?

Shall I take you there?

No, I'll drive there myself, Rainer.

Thanks.

I can't get through.

I'll try this number.

Let's go. Ten minutes. Briefing as usual.

Good morning to you too.

- Boss. - Mr. Winter, how are you?

Alright. Busy.

- Do you know a Svoboda? - Nope. Doesn't ring a bell.

He's a district attorney. He wants to subpoena you.

You're meant to have obstructed police investigations and withheld information.

That little asshole.

So you do know him?

How serious is this?

It's under control. The case is more important.

The hearing is next week. Make sure you go. I'll get you a lawyer.

Svoboda is known for taking a hard line. This isn't a joke.

I'll be in touch.

I didn't want to address this in front of everyone,

but I'm not happy with your Krampus Killer serial.

I'm working on the next article. We interviewed Joy's parents.

You're going overboard.

Nothing's happened for weeks, yet you report on it every day.

Most of it is speculation.

Click rates have doubled. Circulation is up. That's something nowadays.

You're giving the perpetrator too much of a platform in our paper.

And we know now that that is exactly what he wants.

Your articles read like a thriller series.

Yes. And a good one.

Half of Europe is interested in the story. We're covering it exclusively.

- Ad revenue's up, right? - It's not about that.

We're journalists. We don't fuel myths.

It's not a myth. He's working on something new.

I can sense it. He'll do it again.

You can be sure of that.

You mean more people will die?

What shall I do?

Shall I take it to another paper?

No.

Good.

Then let me get back to work.

Hello. Your card, please.

Thanks.

- In Bad Reichenhall, a woman was hit... - Sorry.

It was a hit and run. BMW series 3. Search is underway.

Anything else?

A forest ranger reported a van in the forest. Illegally parked.

It was odd, because the van had different plates.

Different numbers front and back.

- Almost looked stolen. - Almost?

They contacted the shopping center the van seemed to belong to,

but they're not missing any vehicles.

- What shopping center? - Salz Arcades. It's next to the airport.

Something for our Cyber Eye team. They cost enough.

- They can search the net. - I'll give them a call.

What about that car?

- What car? - The exploded car.

Forensics is on it. I'll check afterwards.

- OK. Anything else? - Yep. DNA results.

- Good morning, Mr. Winter. - Morning.

Have you seen Ellie? I can't get hold of her.

No.

She'll be in soon.

- Anything from the handwriting analysis? - No matches, I'm afraid.

Shit.

Then that's it with Dat.sec. I just spoke to the district attorney.

If there's no concrete evidence, focus on the current cases.

- We're on it. - Good.

Why is this van here?

Can't they see I need to unload?

You'll have to ask upstairs.

No, that new woman needs an hour to switch on her computer.

She's totally useless.

Bye. Ciao.

Oh, Dad. What have you been up to?

My colleague may well have read the statements already.

But I want to read them again. What's the problem?

It's 10am. Of course I'm in the office.

Bye.

The Cyber Eye guys found something. Keyword: Salz Arcades.

They checked current messages.

Recently, someone has disseminated notices

via various social networks and platforms.

In layman's terms?

The notices all have one topic:

huge Christmas sale at the Salz Arcades shopping center.

All the adverts come from counterfeit accounts.

OK.

They know nothing of it at Salz Arcades.

There are no sales till after Christmas. They don't know about any online ads.

They'd been wondering why it was so busy today.

Heller! Hang up! What about the car in the wood?

- What? - What did Forensics say?

Someone trying out homemade explosives. Hydrogen peroxide.

Call Stocker.

- Tell her to go to Salz Arcades. - What?

Call Stadlober. He's planning an attack with a van.

- Where? - Hold everything!

- Where? - Salz Arcades.

I don't give a shit. You need to evacuate the joint right now.

Immediately.

Sven, I know. I'm sorry.

I'm on my way.

What?

Where?

Ellie, he's planning an attack. Salz Arcades. A bomb probably.

A bomb? That doesn't fit his pattern.

He's escalated in some way every time.

He wants attention. To be all over the front pages.

Don't cause panic whatever you do.

Make sure people leave the building calmly.

No, we're not sure... but we can't take the risk.

My people are on their way.

- I'm at the industrial area. You? - Highway from Berchtesgaden.

I'm nearly there. What's wrong? Why am I not getting any info?

Has the joint been evacuated or not?

Come on, come on. Drive.

Drive!

The legs were oddly twisted.

His eyes...

I thought he was looking at me.

His mouth was open as if he'd wanted to...

say something, but ran out of time.

His jacket was covered in blood. His hands were burnt.

His hair...

He was small.

And then I had to tell his father.

He didn't react at all.

He looked at me.

He didn't believe me.

He's here.

Ellie!

It's Winter. I need back-up.

I'm following a suspect. By the river behind the shopping center.

Hey, asshole!

Shit.

Hello.

I waited to have dinner.

I made food.

Thanks.

I'm not hungry.

Warm it later, then.

TERROR IN AUSTRIA

DOZENS OF PEOPLE INJURED IN BOMB ATTACK

God.

Did that happen here?

DEAD CHILD IN BOMB ATTACK

A child died?

BOMB ATTACK DEAD CHILD CARRIED FROM RUINS

It could have been a lot worse.

A lot worse.

It isn't that bad.

- One death isn't much. - But it's awful.

Of course it's awful. Life is awful.

Innocent children die every day.

Don't you find it interesting how everyone sits up and listens?

All news channels are reporting it and suddenly people are listening.

Milica, millions of people will see that.

This will be seen around the world.

This will be seen around the whole world.

But you're right.

Of course it's awful.

It's scary.

But you're safe here.

You don't need to be scared. Not you.

I need to do a bit of work.

And?

Nothing.

They've combed the entire wood.

Road blocks are still up. No luck.

We've got those politicians where we want them now. We need to act quickly.

Heller put this together.

People who've bought chemical fertilizer in recent months in the area.

For that amount, you normally need a trading license and ID.

And he died four years ago in an old people's home in Linz.

It's got to be him.

He's a ghost.

- He leaves no trace. - He's no ghost.

He's made of flesh and blood like you and I.

I looked into his eyes. I smelt him, the bastard.

We'll get him. I swear we'll get him.

...our people are on the streets 24 hours a day, and you come here...

Firstly, we want to express our deepest sympathy to those affected.

Thanks to our German colleagues for their support.

Today, we will only give you information that we can confirm with certainty.

Will there be political consequences?

There will certainly be consequences on both sides.

These are truly awful pictures we're seeing here.

Coming to us live, independent journalist, Charles Turek.

- Mr. Turek, thank you for talking to us. - My pleasure.

Elections tomorrow. As a candidate, how do you view the attack?

How can you talk about politics at such an awful time?

How can you?

For everyone involved, for those who helped too, and our officers,

it was a dramatic sight.

I'll answer you here and now, but not as a candidate, as a human being.

We're currently following up numerous leads,

but cannot reveal any information for tactical investigation reasons.

So you think the Krampus Killer

is more than a crazy person with a mask?

Definitely. He is a dangerous political activist,

who has a goal and will shy away from nothing to achieve it.

I am deeply...deeply appalled.

My thoughts are with everyone out there.

Both German and Austrian police

are putting maximum resources into finding the perp.

Where did the perp get the components to build a bomb like that

with such power?

The car bomb was a homemade explosive device.

We can't reveal any further details.

My question is for the two detectives, Ms. Stocker and Mr. Winter.

Can you explain why you still have no concrete leads

as to the perp's identity after such a long time?

You can be certain that my detectives

led by Ms. Stocker and on the Austrian side Mr. Winter

have done everything humanly possible...

Perhaps they are simply

out of their depth with a sophisticated political perp like this.

He's a terrorist. You seem unequal to the job...

As already stated, we are examining...

You're talking about things you don't understand.

Because you're keeping us in the dark.

I'll tell you something then, so you don't have to keep making stuff up.

Please do.

This man is not a terrorist. He has no political or religious motive.

He's a sadist and a narcissist.

He has created a ludicrous mental construct

in order to justify his sadism.

He plays the part of a critic of our society

and kills innocent children.

So don't make him out to be more than he is

just because he chose you as his personal biographer.

He is nothing more than a cruel coward who's not worth writing about.

He is nothing more than a cruel coward who's not worth...

He is nothing more than a cruel coward...

He is nothing more than a cruel coward...

Have you completely lost it?

- Why are you drinking water? - I'm busy. What do you want?

- We had a deal. - Believe it or not, this is personal.

A thug like you is always on duty.

Califati heard about the subpoena.

Vienna district attorney's office. What do they want with you?

You got a new spy, then?

Yeah.

Not half as nice as you.

Nothing to worry about, tell him.

Don't fuck us around, Falke.

You know he doesn't like things to get complicated.

He won't spare an officer of the law like you.

Everything's fine, buddy.

Fine. Exactly.

You look like it is.

I messed up at the press conference. That was a mistake.

Why didn't you tell me about your dad?

PRIVATE AND CONFIDENTIAL PART 1

What do you say when you come to me?

I moved out yesterday. I'm sleeping at the office.

You can always sleep here.

PRIVATE AND CONFIDENTIAL PART 2

LAST NIGHT WAS WONDERFUL! EVERY MINUTE!

I LOVE YOU! WHEN THIS MADNESS IS OVER...

I LOVE YOU!

I've been hiding for too long.

What did you say?

I need to go home.

I need to get in touch with my mom.

I understand.

But to be honest, I don't think it's a good time.

I've seen the news.

It's dangerous out there. Police everywhere.

I have to try.

Of course you can go. You're not a prisoner here.

I just mean...

The police are combing the area. There are road blocks.

They're checking everyone.

But not women, right?

The murderer is a man they said.

Listen...

I'm prepared to protect you from everyone out there.

Especially when the world's gone mad.

You must try the bacon. Really.

Ms. Stocker, will you make a statement?

Were you with your boss at the time of the attack?

Nothing on the search for the perp.

No one's recognized him yet, but...

the van.

He bought it online. Paid for from a bitcoin account.

He had the key sent to a post office box.

The PO box is under a false name.

That's probably where he had his stuff sent.

SEX SCANDAL DURING ONGOING INVESTIGATION

Weapons, chemicals, poison.

What's wrong?

LOVE AFFAIR INSTEAD OF MAN HUNT HARSH CRITICISM FOR THE POLICE

Shit.

Just for the record, he didn't get that from me.

Hey, forget that shit.

At the end of the day, no one cares. The main thing is we get him.

We need to focus.

No one will be interested in that tomorrow.

Tomorrow is the fourth advent day.

So?

Hey, don't abandon me now.

Giving up is not an option. Pull yourself together. I need you.

BOMB ATTACK IN SALZBURG SHOPPING CENTER

Good morning.

You're shaking.

Are you cold?

Just my hands.

I'll make a fire.

Put something warm on. I'll make breakfast.

Yes, thanks.

Time to light the last advent candle tomorrow.

Sit down, won't you?

Listen.

I've been thinking.

I've decided I'll help you to find a job.

And a residence permit.

Everything you need to live and work in Germany.

Really?

Why would you do that?

I like having you here.

You have a positive effect on my work.

I've made huge progress since you've been here.

We're a good team.

Thanks.

That's nice of you.

But I need to call my mom and tell her.

I don't have reception here.

Yes.

The reception up here is dreadful.

Then I'll have to go to the village to call my mom, so...

I want to show you something.

Come on.

This way. Come on.

Look.

I've made preparations.

We can live completely independently when the time comes.

You and me. If you want.

Water filters.

Protective suits. Gas masks.

Come on, let's try them on.

You see.

Fits like a glove.

Careful.

Thanks...

Thanks for...protecting me.

Of course. Goes without saying.

Police emergency service. How can I help?

- Please... - Hello. Can you hear me? Hello?

It's the Krampus murderer.

- What are you talking about? - He wants to kill me.

- Can you tell me where you are? - I don't know where I am.

Please...

Hello?

No.

No. Please.
