Hey.

Hi. How are you?

Who is this?

Where?

OK.

You know, you are wasted on him.

And you're just wasted, Herman.

Yes. And you're just wasted, Herman.

Yes.

Yes. Well, I used to, um...

Well, I used to, um...

Ric. WOMAN: Mmm.

Ric. RIC: You look amazing.

RIC: You look amazing.

I'll be back in a minute, babe.

Hello?

What's so important?

Still not answering. You sure about this?

It's on our way. We have to do something.

It's on our way. No-one's answering.

No-one's answering.

PIET: Great.

Uh, sorry. We... we tried Lucienne, but...

Uh, sorry. Yep. I got it.

Yep. I got it.

Let's go.

CITRA: Try Hendrik.

Of course I'm a traveller.

Like I said, there's two of us on this horse.

Mate.

Quiet night, all in all.

Oh! Wah! Ahh!

Oh!

Hey!

- Duty calls. - Hey!

Duty calls. Whoa.

OK. Just give me a sec. Alright.

OK. Just give me a sec. You might want to wake your mate.

You might want to wake your mate.

Sorry. I can't remember her name.

No, nor can I.

- How much did we have? - A lot.

How much did we have? Mm-hm.

Mm-hm.

You alright? Always.

LUCIENNE: Do you want to take that?

Nope.

PIET: You don't want to take that?

Nope. Not just now.

Oh...

Victim is Ric van der Molden. Uh, 31.

Body discovered by his girlfriend, Zoe Waterman.

OK. There was a party, right?

Go upstairs. Talk to the guests. OK. There was a party, right?

Go upstairs. Talk to the guests. See if anyone knows anything.

Go upstairs. Talk to the guests. Right. Cause of death?

Right. Cause of death?

Extensive alcohol consumption

following a night out with you two.

Nah.

Hey.

Interesting woman, your friend, Astrid.

PIET: Astrid. HENDRIK: Yeah.

PIET: Astrid. Hand model, apparently. Fascinating.

Hand model, apparently. Fascinating.

Fascinating.

And this body here, please?

Well, technically, stabbing,

though that doesn't quite do this one justice.

Bruising on the entrance wound suggests

intense thrusting action right up to the hilt.

intense thrusting action Ask me about the depth of the wound.

Ask me about the depth of the wound.

How deep was the wound, Hendrik?

Well, funny you should ask. How deep was the wound, Hendrik?

Well, funny you should ask. Hard to be exact.

Depends on how far it came out the other side.

Went through him like a knife through butter.

Went through him PIET: Is that a technical term?

PIET: Is that a technical term?

I don't suppose there's a murder weapon, is there?

Oh, apart from the gaping wound, no.

But I'd hazard a guess - a stab, if you like -

it was withdrawn immediately after impact.

It being...? Well, Christ knows.

I'll tell you what it wasn't.

It wasn't a penknife or a street blade or even a carving knife.

Sword?

Now you're talking my language. That is always a bad sign.

Time of death? Now, that, I CAN help you with.

Between 5:30am and 5:42am.

Good. Impressive. Very, uh, specific.

HENDRIK: Well, on the one hand,

pathology is an exact and specific science.

And on the other? Eddie told me.

According to various guests,

5:30 is when the victim was seen According to various guests,

5:30 is when the victim was seen going outside to make a phone call.

5:42 is when his girlfriend found him down here.

They could, of course, all be lying through their teeth,

but it is consistent with the body temperature,

the developing rigor mortis and hypostasis.

LUCIENNE: Right. We'll see what his partner has to say, then, shall we?

Ric took a call,

said it wouldn't be a minute.

Did he say who the call was from?

Nope.

Was there any trouble at the party?

I mean, anyone acting strange? Was there any trouble at the party?

I mean, anyone acting strange? ZOE: No.

I mean, anyone acting strange? Nothing.

Nothing.

He...

..when he didn't come back, I went looking for him.

He was just lying there.

We'll need to notify next of kin.

Are his family local?

Uh, Rotterdam.

I can give you details.

Whose apartment is it? ZOE: Mine.

We were celebrating Ric's latest exhibition launch.

We were celebrating He's a...

He's a...

..curator at the culture museum.

We both work there.

His exhibition just opened.

Exhibition?

Colonialism and Restitution.

EDDIE: Did you see anything suspicious?

Well, the alcohol was running out, if that's what you mean.

It wasn't.

Well, it bloody was. I mean, I started necking empties.

Yeah, I mean it wasn't really the information I was looking for.

Yeah, I mean it wasn't really Uh...

Uh...

Alright.

Like I said, as soon as Ric van der Molden took his call,

I chatted with his girlfriend.

And then what?

I mingled, you know?

I'm a social butterfly.

I like to... flit.

With anyone in particular? Nope.

So, no-one can vouch for your exact whereabouts?

So, no-one can vouch No.

No.

Unless they were stalking me.

That would be fun, wouldn't it?

Can I see the body?

I just... I want to pay my respects.

How did he die? Strangled?

No? Gunshot?

Was it sudden?

You do know these are really odd questions, right?

You do know these are No, not really. No.

No, not really. No.

I mean, death is fascinating, don't you think?

It's the greatest leveller of them all.

So, how do you know Mr Van der Molden?

So, how do you know We're both in the museum game.

We're both in the museum game.

Although Ric likes to think he's a We're both in the museum game.

Although Ric likes to think he's a cut above, if you know what I mean.

Although Ric likes to think he's a But, no, I run my own, so...

But, no, I run my own, so...

..free tickets any time you want to...

Oh... ..come on by.

Your loss.

CITRA: We're taking names and info, but nothing concrete so far.

The basement isn't accessible from the outside,

so it must have been someone from the party.

But, then, what about the phone call?

Unless it was someone

from a different apartment in the same building.

from a different apartment Great.

Great.

Phone call implies whoever killed him Great.

Phone call implies whoever killed him probably wasn't at the party.

Get Tech on it. See if we can find out who made that call.

Talk to them all again. Check the cameras on the street and entrance.

Let's go to the museum. Alright.

And Zoe, how is she? As you'd expect.

And Zoe, how is she? Upset.

Upset.

It's just... just so...

Ric had such a brilliant mind.

He...

We gather there was a launch.

Our latest exhibition.

Ric's.

Interesting exhibition.

Timely.

I couldn't agree more.

Thankfully, the government has decided to step in

and return objects that this country commandeered

in our colonial past.

Yeah. Theft, some might say.

Not one to mince words, then?

Not his strong point, no.

And are all of these items going back?

Uh, no, not all of them.

In consultation, we're trying to strike a balance between

returning and maintaining them for our educational program.

returning and maintaining them Is anyone opposed to their return?

Is anyone opposed to their return?

Yes.

Ric.

Colonial history was his area.

So, when the board decided on this Colonial history was his area.

So, when the board decided on this exhibition, it was his to curate.

He was... less than happy

about seeing the collection being broken up.

Because he didn't agree with restitution?

The way he saw it,

if museums start giving things back that were taken centuries ago,

if museums start giving things back they'll be empty.

they'll be empty.

Well, that's not really the point, is it?

Well, that's not really I don't think so.

I don't think so.

And nor does the museum.

But Ric wasn't one for correcting the sins of the past.

But Ric wasn't one And Miss Waterman?

And Miss Waterman?

Totally different.

They hadn't been together long.

And, to be honest, I didn't get them.

Opposites attract, they say.

So, did Ric make a lot of enemies, then?

So, did Ric make Not enemies.

Not enemies.

Amsterdam is built on accepting alternate views, right?

Yep.

Sometimes.

The name reads "E. van der Molden".

Not 'R'. Why is that?

Ric's full name is Eric.

But everyone knew him as Ric.

OK. That was Tech.

Victim's last phone call made from an unregistered phone,

but they've traced the number to the NEMO.

but they've traced the number That's round the corner.

That's round the corner.

So, what are we waiting for? You.

What's your problem with his name? Ric, instead of Eric.

Worked on a case in Rotterdam almost 20 years ago.

Involved a kid called Eric van der Molden.

Involved a kid What were you doing in Rotterdam?

What were you doing in Rotterdam?

Thought you got a nosebleed if you What were you doing in Rotterdam?

Thought you got a nosebleed if you so much as stepped out of Amsterdam.

Thought you got a nosebleed if you I was seconded there early on.

I was seconded there early on.

Not everyone's a fan of the exhibition, then.

Belong to the RAA, who promote the restitution of ancient artefacts.

Belong to the RAA, who promote the Alright. Check 'em out.

Alright. Check 'em out.

Triangulation of telephone masts

would indicate the phone was left somewhere around here.

Citra? Yeah.

Citra? Think I've got something.

Think I've got something.

Yeah. We found the phone.

OK.

Yeah. We're coming now.

PIET: Ric van der Molden.

Not particularly well-liked.

Opposed the repatriation of cultural artefacts.

Yeah, which the RAA lobby for.

Restorative justice.

CITRA: Restorative justice.

CITRA: Which is a right, not a choice.

LUCIENNE: Points out it's not just us.

LUCIENNE: Mentions the Elgin Marbles...

Mentions the Elgin Marbles...

..the Benin Bronzes.

CITRA: Cultural objects belong to the culture that created them,

CITRA: Cultural objects belong to not you.

not you.

There's an address. We'll check it out.

LUCIENNE: You OK? What is it?

It's... Van der Molden's family address.

It's... Van der Molden's It's Rotterdam.

It's Rotterdam.

He's the same Eric van der Molden I met 19 years ago.

He's the same Eric van der Molden LUCIENNE: And what was the case?

LUCIENNE: And what was the case?

Jasmijn Brahm.

You worked on that?

Yep. You worked on that?

Yep. EDDIE: What case?

Before your time, I guess. Yeah. Before mine too.

But I remember reading about it.

Uh, Jasmijn Brahm.

Teenager. She was 16.

LUCIENNE: Killed her two younger brothers in cold blood,

Carl and Jonas, 10 and 12.

Set fire to the house Carl and Jonas, 10 and 12.

Set fire to the house with them in it.

While she stood there and watched, as the fire took them.

General consensus being because she was the devil incarnate.

The newspapers went crazy. She was public enemy number one, alright.

So, who was Eric?

He was the kid next door.

The brothers were his best friends.

Um, he saw her do it.

His statement was a crucial part of putting her away.

I'm assuming they locked HER up and threw away the key?

No, she was put on various programs, different institutions.

She was released seven years ago.

She got a new name,

new life.

New suspect.

Mama!

Hey, Jan? It's Piet.

JAN: Piet? Van der Valk?

Yes, mate. The very same.

I know. Yes, mate. The very same.

I know. It's been a long time, hasn't it?

JAN: Too long. Look.

I was just wondering, uh, can we meet up for a coffee?

I was just wondering, uh, JAN: Sure. Any time, mate.

JAN: Sure. Any time, mate.

OK.

JAN: Yep. Yep. I might even pay for it.

JAN: Yep. Yep. Alright. I'll look forward to it.

Alright. I'll look forward to it.

Yep.

Yep.

PIET: Yeah. Good girl.

Good girl. How you doing?

Alright?

You look beautiful.

All good? JULIA: Yeah.

I was until you came in behaving weirdly. What do you want?

Oh, just to fill you in on a murder that happened this morning.

Piet, you never want to fill me in on any murder that happens,

not this morning, any other morning, afternoon or evening.

So, what's so different about this one?

Connection.

To Jasmijn Brahm.

The victim's the kid who lived next door,

Eric van der Molden.

Who gave evidence against her.

Coincidence? Don't know.

I need to know where she is.

Released under a new identity, last I heard.

Released under a new identity, Correct.

Correct.

But I need to know who as, and I need to speak to her.

You don't ask much, do you?

Well, needs must and all that.

I mean, if she's got a watertight alibi,

she's got nothing to worry about, has she?

This isn't gonna go down well with her handlers,

This isn't gonna let alone her legal team.

let alone her legal team.

I've got every confidence in you.

They'll argue it into the ground, but leave it with me.

They'll argue it into the ground, PIET: Oh, and, uh...

PIET: Oh, and, uh...

..I thought I might meet up with Jan.

If that's OK with you.

Would it make any difference if I said no?

No.

There you go, then.

EDDIE: You seem pretty up on restitution.

EDDIE: You think?

You think?

Is it 'cause it's close to your heart?

Maybe. Maybe not.

What do you mean?

Because I'm Indonesian, I have to have a take on it?

EDDIE: No, no, I'm not... not saying that.

I mean, it's... it's a hot issue, right?

Maybe you just...

Maybe you just... ..read a couple articles on it.

..read a couple articles on it.

Yeah.

Hello? EDDIE: We're looking for the RAA.

For the Restitution of Ancient Artefacts.

You've found her.

Is the RAA just you?

Me and my 17,506 followers.

Impressive. Thanks.

CITRA: And is that all you do?

Do you just police?

Uh... yeah.

Well, for your information,

Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, Well, for your information,

Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, I work in a hotel.

Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays, I repair bikes at a bike shop.

Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays, And Sunday?

And Sunday?

Campaigning.

EDDIE: Hm.

Like a bit of spray painting, do we?

You do know defacing public property is an offence?

CITRA: It is fair to assume you're the person

that graffitied and leafleted outside the culture museum?

that graffitied and leafleted Guilty as charged.

Guilty as charged.

Please arrest and charge me, as it will be so good for my profile.

EDDIE: That depends on the charge.

Ric van der Molden. You familiar with him?

The scuzzball with his fake exhibition? Yeah.

What's your problem with the exhibition?

It's a sham.

They're not really giving anything back, you know?

And behind the scenes, Van der Molden is resisting the whole thing.

On what grounds? Anything he can think of.

That... that museums in Indonesia aren't big enough to show them,

that the temperature there isn't right and they will be damaged,

that their educational value would be better served here.

How far would you go to fight for your cause?

How far would you go How far you got?

How far you got?

The man's racist!

He's also dead.

Stabbed, 5:30 this morning.

Where were you then?

Here. I was just updating my social media.

Here. I was just updating You can check it out if you want.

You can check it out if you want.

EDDIE: We will.

Be good if you could prove it, though.

Be good Can you?

Can you?

I am single.

I live here alone.

Can you prove where you were I live here alone.

Can you prove where you were at 5am this morning?

Piet.

Jan. You've aged well.

Jan. Oh!

Oh!

I think the ice-cream helps.

Gives the illusion of youth.

You should try it. You saying I look old?

Oh, there's a... little bit more grey in the beard.

Yeah. I can't seem to slow that down.

Yeah. It's good to see you.

It's good to see you.

Married with children, yeah?

You never were one for a private life.

You never were one Shame.

Shame.

Some things never change, though, eh?

No.

People keep killing people.

Which is why I'm here.

Jasmijn Brahm.

Do you know what happened to her, after her release?

She started a new life in Groningen, I hear.

She started a new life Reformed character, by all accounts.

Reformed character, by all accounts.

Why?

You remember the kid next door?

Eric van der Molden?

He's been killed.

You're going back nearly 20 years.

You seriously think she might be responsible?

I mean, his testimony was part of the reason she was convicted.

That and her confession,

and the fact that she was drunk

and was heard earlier in the day

telling her siblings she wanted to kill them.

She used her time behind bars wisely,

did an MA degree in theology,

then another in psychology, then a PhD, which was published.

then another in psychology, Guess what it was about?

Guess what it was about?

The treatment of juvenile offenders.

Takes one to know one, I guess.

You clearly followed her case.

JAN: I couldn't...

That case.

I couldn't ever... I couldn't ever shake it off.

I couldn't.

Oh, you know.

I can still smell her brothers' burnt bodies, even now.

It's with me even now.

You?

Yeah, um...

..I don't think you ever forget it.

JAN: I remember that.

I remember her lack of remorse.

You still think she was innocent?

I don't know.

You still think she's evil?

You can have all the degrees in the world.

A leopard doesn't change its spots.

PIET: A leopard doesn't change its spots.

PIET: She's been given a new identity.

I mean, presumably, she has a handler.

You got any idea who?

That kind of information's You got any idea who?

That kind of information's above my pay grade.

That kind of information's You'd need Julia for that one.

You'd need Julia for that one.

How is she?

Yeah, she's... she's good.

She's got a dog.

She said to say hello.

You never could lie, Piet.

Never.

What about you? Yeah.

That's my brood over there.

Eddie and Citra got anything? Yeah.

Johanna Kolen, the youth that runs the RAA,

admits to the graffiti and loathed Ric van der Molden.

They bringing her in? Keeping an eye.

Her alibi checks out.

She was on her phone at the time of the murder. Nowhere near the scene.

Could have had an accomplice. That's true.

We're not gonna rule her out.

Greetings, live people.

Greetings. What have you got?

Autopsy and analysis threw some clarity on the murder weapon.

Judging from the splinters left in the wound, hilt made of wood.

Blade? HENDRIK: Silver.

Blade? And very, very sharp.

And very, very sharp.

Not for shaving, that's for sure.

The sort of thing usually found

in a museum, perhaps.

PIET: Sorry to interrupt.

Didn't expect you to be in work today.

Didn't expect you Nor did I.

Nor did I.

And she shouldn't be.

I'll take her home as soon as she'll let me.

I'll take her home I'm fine. I just need to keep busy.

I'm fine. I just need to keep busy.

And my flat's the crime scene. Right?

Know who did it yet?

Name Johanna Kolen mean anything to you?

Name Johanna Kolen Sure.

Sure.

She's clearly not a fan of the exhibition.

Did she know Ric? Yes, they... had spoken.

Did she know Ric? Well, argued.

Well, argued.

I tried to make Ric see things from her point of view.

Why? Did she do this?

That's what Why? Did she do this?

That's what we're trying to find out.

That's what Johanna means well, and...

Johanna means well, and...

..the museum understands her cause, but...

PIET: Mm, whereas your boyfriend didn't.

Would Miss Kolen have had his phone number?

Would Miss Kolen ZOE: Yes, she had.

ZOE: Yes, she had.

Are there any swords in the exhibition?

WOMAN: No.

There was one

Ric desperately wanted to get but...

..couldn't - Ric desperately wanted to get but...

..couldn't - belonged to a famous warrior.

..couldn't - Because?

Because?

It's privately owned by a local collector, Max Langenburg.

Actually, he's, um, on the board of directors of the museum, but...

..he declined to lend it.

OK.

We'll, uh... we'll need his address.

If he's on the board of directors,

why wouldn't he lend it If he's on the board of directors,

why wouldn't he lend it to the museum?

why wouldn't he lend it Because it's his prize possession.

Because it's his prize possession.

It's from Indonesia. Its status and provenance are unique.

Which is, of course...

..why Ric wanted it, but...

How we gonna play this? Carefully.

Jasmijn Brahm's handler's agreed to meet, but there are conditions.

Yeah, well, I'm gonna be on my bestest behaviour.

Really?

Seen Jan? I did.

Was he well?

Oh, we didn't really get that far. We just talked about the case.

Oh, we didn't really get that far. He said to say hello.

He said to say hello.

Liar.

Miss Zuiderduin.

Nice to meet you, Chief Commissaris.

And Commissaris Van der Valk. Hey.

We're so grateful you agreed to meet.

It's not ideal.

So, confidentiality is paramount.

PIET: No, justice is paramount.

We can save ourselves a lot of time if you just tell us

where Jasmijn Brahm currently resides.

Here.

In Amsterdam.

So, what is Jasmijn Brahm doing in Amsterdam?

Getting on with the rest of her life.

Getting on with As is her freedom to do so.

As is her freedom to do so.

Unlike her brothers.

Well, you say it as it is, Commissaris. Don't hold back.

How long's she been here? ZUIDERDUIN: A few months.

Well, you know,

I'm not at liberty to say where in Amsterdam she is, right?

Well, I appreciate that, but I'm sure you don't need us to remind you

this is a murder inquiry.

The victim was Eric van der Molden. Do you know him?

It's part of my job to know what happened all those years ago.

I know the case inside out, so, yeah.

I know him. So, you know why it's relevant?

I mean, we have a list of suspects, one of which is Jasmijn Brahm.

I mean, we have a list of suspects, There is no way

There is no way

that Jasmijn, as you used to know her, committed that crime.

that Jasmijn, as you used to I...

I...

..I know her.

I know her movements. What, five o'clock in the morning?

I know what she did back then, and I know how she is now,

and where she's at.

It's my job to know and to protect her, so I'm...

..I'm sorry if I'm not comfortable sharing information.

And it's my job to find out who murdered Eric van der Molden,

so, I'm sorry, I don't care whether you're comfortable or not.

Piet! Well... listen.

I'll find out what I need to know, OK, one way or another.

I mean, someone on the force will know her.

They'll know who she is, where she is.

They'll know who she is, They always do.

They always do.

There was a Van der Valk on the original case, wasn't there?

Does it matter?

It does if it affects your objectivity.

JULIA: Uh, that's for me to decide.

Not you.

ZUIDERDUIN: Lauren Teuling.

Her name is Lauren Teuling.

She lives with her husband Her name is Lauren Teuling.

She lives with her husband and two small children.

Happy families.

I take it he knows?

She's... she's a different person. She's moved on.

She's a writer now, a journalist.

PIET: That's ironic.

Given how the press treated her.

She's not living in the past.

Are you?

No.

We need to talk to her, as soon as possible.

No.

I need to speak to her, and her husband.

And I can't guarantee anything, and, uh, if we do,

you need to behave by the book, right?

Of course.

No offence, but my question wasn't directed at you.

I love playing by the book, me.

Well, I'll let you know. I love playing by the book, me.

Well, I'll let you know. Great.

When? ZUIDERDUIN: When I let you know.

Alright. I'll be waiting for your call.

Thank you.

Where we at on the collector with the sword?

Where we at Max Langenburg? Happy to meet.

Max Langenburg? Happy to meet.

Alright. Max Langenburg? Happy to meet.

Alright. Let's head over there, with Hendrik.

Alright. LUCIENNE: And what about you?

LUCIENNE: And what about you?

Find out anything? PIET: Yeah.

Jasmijn Brahm, aka Lauren Teuling, married mother, living in Amsterdam.

Oh. Nice house.

PIET: Hey.

Commissaris Van der Valk. This is Inspector Hassell.

Hendrik here is our pathologist.

Pleasure to meet you.

What's a pathologist doing here? Has someone died?

Yeah. Ric van der Molden. MAX: I heard about that.

But that wasn't here. And I'm not sure what this has to do with me.

We just need to ask you a few questions.

Here you go. Let me get the door for you.

Very nice.

Quite a few bits and bobs.

Hendrik.

Do you mind if he takes a look?

As long as he's careful.

Oh!

You'll never know he's so much as Oh!

You'll never know he's so much as looked at it, let alone touched it.

You've been talking to MY exes again?

You've been talking LUCIENNE: Is the sword valuable?

LUCIENNE: Is the sword valuable?

Not so much in monetary terms,

because there's only a small group in the world who are interested,

but to that small group, yes, it's priceless.

but to that small group, yes, Because?

Because?

MAX: It belonged to Nyi Ageng Serang,

a female freedom fighter and guerilla leader,

a legendary figure among the Indonesian community.

I like her already. PIET: So do I.

When are we talking? 1750s to 1830s.

Her sword passed down through the generations.

But no longer in the community where it belongs.

But no longer in the community That can't be popular.

That can't be popular.

How did it make it onto the open market

if it was so meaningful to the community?

MAX: Where there's a will, there's a way.

MAX: Where there's a will, And, of course, money talks.

And, of course, money talks.

Oh. Of course it does.

We gather some people are concerned about the repatriation issue.

We gather some people are concerned Are you?

Are you?

MAX: Not top of my list.

I'm a collector. It's in the genes.

Look, I'm sorry.

Why all these questions? What's all this got to do with Ric?

Because he was killed with a sword very much like this one.

Well, I assure you, that sword hasn't left this house

Well, I assure you, since I bought it.

since I bought it.

Could it have been taken by anyone without your knowing?

Impossible. I have security.

OK. We'll need to check.

Are there any other swords like that in circulation?

Are there any other swords like that MAX: None that belonged to her.

MAX: None that belonged to her.

That's why it's unique.

Why didn't you lend it to the museum for the exhibition?

I didn't buy it to share it. I bought it to have it.

I didn't buy it to share it. PIET: Very giving of you.

PIET: Very giving of you.

How did Mr Van der Molden feel PIET: Very giving of you.

How did Mr Van der Molden feel about that?

How did Mr Van der Molden feel MAX: Frustrated, angry.

MAX: Frustrated, angry.

How'd that make you feel?

Equally frustrated and angry.

But not enough to kill him.

Is that right?

Well, there's definitely traces of blood on this sword.

MAX: Of course there is!

She was a fierce warrior. She killed many soldiers.

Well, I'll have to check with the lab, and I'm no expert...

Well, I'll have to check Actually, I am.

Actually, I am.

..but my hunch is saying

that blood is barely a day old,

let alone 250 years.

Well...

If confirmed, that kind of changes things.

Don't you think?

Welcome to the dark world of crime.

As if the world needed this.

Oh, I don't know. As if the world needed this.

Oh, I don't know. I'm quite looking forward to it.

You're weird. Don't judge, chess boy.

I'm not the one who sits around all day, playing with his bishop.

I'm not the one who sits around

This is weird. CITRA: Yeah.

Oh, hey.

Ah!

Open daily, 365.

This... this is my collection. Hmm?

Little hobby, if you will.

I take it you know about Ric's past and his connection to Jasmijn Brahm?

I know everything there is to know about that case.

I know everything there is to know Oh. Is that how you got to know him?

Oh. Is that how you got to know him?

You heard about what happened Oh. Is that how you got to know him?

You heard about what happened and just had to make contact?

You heard about what happened

The total opposite.

No, Ric came to ME.

Ric sought ME out.

I mean... Ric loved it here.

Really? Why?

Because he was fascinated with evil.

MAN: I don't see why we have to agree to anything.

We're meant to be anonymous. You are meant to protect us.

That's the whole point.

I can say no.

That's your right.

Well, there you go. Say no.

But then they might want to pursue it independently,

which could get messier.

ZUIDERDUIN:

ZUIDERDUIN: At least if we say yes, if we agree,

then we can control the process.

I've got nothing to hide.

OK.

LUCIENNE: According to Citra,

Ric van der Molden was obsessed with evil AND Jasmijn Brahm.

Ric van der Molden was obsessed That doesn't surprise me.

That doesn't surprise me.

She had that effect on people.

I know you and Jan found the bodies.

I checked.

Don't know how you shake off that image.

ZUIDERDUIN: Commissaris Van der Valk.

This is Inspector Hassell.

Thank you for agreeing to talk to us.

I know you didn't have to.

You want to talk to me about Eric?

PIET: Yeah.

Where were you first thing this morning, between 5am and 6am?

Uh, I was at home.

I have two children.

They tend to be up early.

My husband can vouch for me.

When did you last see Mr Van der Molden?

I mean, was it 19 years ago or more recently?

I mean, was it 19 years ago Well, he wrote to me in prison.

Well, he wrote to me in prison.

He said he... wanted to know why I did it.

He said that he needed closure.

And you replied to his letter?

Yeah, I did, but it was only much later that I found out

Yeah, I did, but it was that he never received my letter.

that he never received my letter.

It was intercepted.

You, um... you worked the case, right?

Hanna mentioned it.

I did, yeah.

And did you think I was evil?

It doesn't matter what I think.

I'm only interested in now.

Well, we've got that in common I'm only interested in now.

Well, we've got that in common at least.

Well, we've got that in common OK. Is that everything?

OK. Is that everything?

You wanted to meet. Now you've met.

So, can she go?

How would we make contact moving forward?

Why would you need to? JASMIJN: It's fine. I don't mind.

Why would you need to? I'm happy to help.

I'm happy to help.

Alright. Through me.

No-one else. OK?

You got them?

Yep.

Let's go.

Did you work on the Jasmijn Brahm case as well?

Did you work on Not directly.

Not directly.

I knew... of it.

It was a pretty important case for Piet, right?

Yeah.

It sort of came to define him.

It was the first time he went against the grain.

It was the first time But not the last.

But not the last.

Well, a lot of people wanted But not the last.

Well, a lot of people wanted to reinstate the death penalty

Well, a lot of people wanted for Jasmijn Brahm.

for Jasmijn Brahm.

And did Piet? No. Yeah, but it was a strange case.

No-one could square why she did what she did,

killed her siblings in cold blood.

Hey. PIET: OK.

Records confirm 16-year-old Jasmijn Brahm drank a lot.

She had blackouts and a history of abuse.

She had blackouts Don't we all?

Don't we all?

LUCIENNE: Well, according to Eric, Ric,

she got angry because her brothers smashed her bird's egg collection.

Bit of an overreaction, right? LUCIENNE: I don't know.

It says here the neighbours heard her threatening them,

went and got drunk before dousing the house in petrol.

CLIFF: Yeah, and there was something about

her using the brothers' favourite toy to start the fire.

After that, she locked them in.

Oh, Ric also claimed that she was laughing

Oh, Ric also claimed as her brothers screamed,

as her brothers screamed,

with the house burning around them.

JULIA: Well, in the public's mind, with the house burning around them.

JULIA: Well, in the public's mind, his statement convinced everyone.

JULIA: Well, in the public's mind, But he was 12 years old at the time.

But he was 12 years old at the time.

EDDIE: Surely they must have had more.

EDDIE: Yeah, her DNA was everywhere.

Yeah, her DNA was everywhere.

I mean, it would be. She lived there.

So, more emphasis was put on her confession.

I mean, she...

..didn't deny it.

She couldn't remember it, ..didn't deny it.

She couldn't remember it, but she never said she didn't do it.

LUCIENNE: What happened to Ric van der Molden afterwards?

That's what we need to find out - what happened after,

where he went, what he did, who with - the lot.

Max Langenburg, crossed swords with him, literally.

Max Langenburg, But is that enough of a motive?

But is that enough of a motive?

I don't know yet.

Likewise with the grim reaper, Herman Zaal. Let's dig.

See if we can figure out why someone would want Eric dead.

How'd you get on with that address?

Found it.

JAN: Piet.

I need you to meet me at the Hortus.

Soon as you can, yeah?

It's important.

Care to share?

Not at the moment.

You can fill me in on the way.

Jan, it's me.

Piet, look. I need to talk this thing through with you.

Piet, look. I need to talk The more I dig, the more it stinks.

The more I dig, the more it stinks.

I think someone's after me.

Jan? It's Julia.

Where exactly are you? Who's after you?

Julie?

Julie, Christ. It's been a long time.

Julie, Christ. JULIA: I know. Hasn't it?

JULIA: I know. Hasn't it?

But let's not think about that JULIA: I know. Hasn't it?

But let's not think about that right now.

Hey! What?

Jan, are you still there?

JAN: Wait.

Jan, are you still there? Are you alright? Can you hear me?

Jan, are you still there? We're on our way.

We're on our way.

PIET: Jan?

JULIA: Piet, over here.

Jan.

Jan? Hey, mate.

It's Piet.

We're here, mate. We're here. We're here for you, mate.

It's OK. It's Julia.

It's gonna be OK. Just hang in there.

PIET: Commissaris Van der Valk... Julia.

..botanical garden as fast as you can.

You alright? What?

Let's just get you sorted. Don't worry about me.

Let's just get you sorted. Who did this to you?

Who did this to you?

Tell us.

You look after her.

PIET: I'll call you back.

I'm so sorry.

I'm so sorry.

Alright.

I'll be in touch. Alright.

I'll be in touch.

Who was that?

It was Sara.

Jan's wife.

He also had three teenage kids.

So, anything we need to know?

OK.

The victim is Jan Kappel.

He's a former police officer.

Was a friend of ours. He's a former police officer.

Was a friend of ours.

He was my senior officer

He was my senior officer on the Jasmijn Brahm case.

on the Jasmijn Brahm case.

Said he wanted to meet.

He said, uh...

..well, he said someone was after him.

Another person connected to that case?

Another person Can't be a coincidence.

Can't be a coincidence.

I never thought it was.

Well, cause of death appears to be blunt trauma

and multiple injuries I never thought it was.

Well, cause of death appears to be blunt trauma and multiple injuries

on account of his descent from up there, presumably.

on account of his descent from up there, presumably. I

can check there's nothing else at the post-mortem, but...

I can check there's nothing else at the post-mortem, but...

..question is, did he fall or...

..was he pushed?

So, that errand you ran and, uh, that address you mentioned,

was that Lauren Teuling, by any chance?

Yep.

So, you followed her home,

even though we said So, you followed her home,

even though we said we'd do it by the book?

Good.

Get round there first thing and turn the screw.

Get round there first thing Of course.

Of course.

Do you want a lift home?

Oh, no, no. Honestly, it's no need. Um...

Do you know what? I think I'll, uh... I'll... I'll take a walk.

Um, there's no point in beating about the bush,

'cause you're going to have to find out soon anyway,

but Jan and I were married.

But it was a long time ago.

But at least he, uh...

..introduced me to Piet.

Sorry to interrupt.

But you might want to pay our collector friend, Mr Langenburg,

another visit.

Update on the sword.

The only prints on it are his.

And the blood?

Ric van der Molden.

It was, indeed, the murder weapon.

Morning, Mr Langenburg.

Morning.

LUCIENNE: We need to speak to you.

At the station.

Really?

Yeah. Really.

Johanna Kolen has over 17,000 followers.

But you know what I don't get?

Connection between Indonesian artefacts and Jasmijn Brahm.

Connection between Indonesian Yeah.

Yeah.

Coming?

Uh, yeah.

They're not exactly gonna be welcoming us with open arms,

They're not exactly gonna be are they?

are they?

They rarely are. But no.

Why? Is that a problem?

No. Um, I'm just curious.

Not met a murderer before, like, a real one.

Well, you've arrested some.

Yeah, but it's not quite the same as knocking on the door

Yeah, but it's not quite the same and having a chat, though, is it?

and having a chat, though, is it?

Maybe now's the time to say something to make me feel at ease?

Maybe now's the time to say OK. Yeah.

OK. Yeah.

Uh...

..you've probably met dozens of murderers.

You just didn't know it.

I might be one.

That helps. Good.

That helps. There you go.

There you go.

You got this.

Hey.

We need to talk to your wife about Hey.

We need to talk to your wife about the death of Eric van der Molden.

We need to talk to your wife about No. You shouldn't be here.

No. You shouldn't be here.

Go away.

You are not meant to be here.

Go. You are not meant to be here.

Go. It wasn't the plan. But plans change.

Go. Someone else has been killed,

Someone else has been killed,

also connected to your wife's past, so, if you don't mind.

She's giving the kids their breakfast, for Christ's sake!

PIET: You really...

..don't want to do that.

I mean, we'll just have to kick it in. We'd have to arrest her.

I mean, we'll just have to Be very upsetting for the kids.

Be very upsetting for the kids.

'Cause you probably Be very upsetting for the kids.

'Cause you probably wouldn't want that either, would you?

MAX: Your pathologist must be mistaken.

MAX: Your pathologist And with the best will in the world,

And with the best will in the world,

he didn't exactly strike me And with the best will in the world,

he didn't exactly strike me as infallible.

he didn't exactly strike me Well, you're wrong.

Well, you're wrong.

Our pathologist may be many things,

but forensically inaccurate is not one of them.

but forensically inaccurate Then how do you explain

Then how do you explain

how the sword left my house Then how do you explain

how the sword left my house without me knowing,

was used to kill someone and then returned?

We were hoping you would explain that, actually.

We were hoping Anyone else have access to the house?

Anyone else have access to the house?

Friends, families?

Cleaners?

I'm a solitary beast. I prefer objects to people.

Not surprisingly, given all this.

EDDIE: And what about security?

I mean, this collection...

..must be worth quite a lot of money.

I see you've got cameras.

So that I'd know if someone had broken in and taken anything.

LUCIENNE: We'll need access to all your surveillance footage.

You're welcome to it.

Where were you yesterday morning between five and six?

Where were you yesterday morning At home, asleep.

At home, asleep.

And last night, about 10 o'clock?

At home, awake.

Does the name Jan Kappel mean anything to you?

Does the name Jan Kappel Never heard of him. Why?

Never heard of him. Why?

You do realise...

..this is absurd, right?

Do you know how much I paid for that sword?

Do you really think I would use it to kill someone?

Oh, I don't see why not.

We know you had a very public disagreement

We know you had with Ric van der Molden over...

with Ric van der Molden over...

..that very object and others.

EDDIE: Yeah, we checked his emails.

Quite a row you two had. LUCIENNE: Mm.

At one point, Mr Van der Molden said if you didn't lend him your sword,

At one point, Mr Van der Molden said he would go public with

he would go public with

the somewhat dodgy provenance he would go public with

the somewhat dodgy provenance of most of your collection.

Of course I know who Jan Kappel is.

PIET: Was.

Had he been in touch with you PIET: Was.

Had he been in touch with you recently?

No! Of course not.

How could he? Our identities have been protected.

Well, our presence here this morning

is proof that system isn't watertight.

is proof So, the truth?

So, the truth?

Jan tracked us down and let it be known that he knew where we were.

He said it was just a precaution.

That must have been annoying for you.

I mean, wanting to start over, a new life with your family.

I mean, wanting to start over, It wasn't ideal.

It wasn't ideal.

No.

PIET: Has anyone else been in touch?

Eric van der Molden, for example?

We gather he was Eric van der Molden, for example?

We gather he was somewhat fascinated by you.

We gather he was Did he track you down, too?

Did he track you down, too?

That weirdo, Zaal, did.

Herman Zaal? MAN: Yes.

Like you said, the system isn't watertight.

Like you said, He paid someone for the information.

He paid someone for the information.

Couldn't resist.

He told Eric and Eric contacted me.

And you saw him?

Um, surely that's against the rules And you saw him?

Um, surely that's against the rules of your release.

I'm just trying to do right by people.

Or right wrongs.

Eric wrote to me a few times.

I think it was his way of processing...

I think it was his way ..everything.

..everything.

And...

..well, when he got in touch through Zaal, I agreed to meet.

I was curious. MAN: I wasn't happy about it.

Did your handler know? JASMIJN: Oh, eventually.

Did your handler know? But it was my call.

But it was my call.

Otherwise freedom...

..doesn't really feel that free at all.

When you were in prison, you studied a lot, right?

When you were in prison, I had a lot of time on my hands.

I had a lot of time on my hands.

Anything to do with Indonesia?

Restitution? The RAA?

No.

Did anyone ever tell you that it's rude to stare?

Just you.

How'd you get on with the collector?

Guilty if you ask me.

PIET: Oh. Very balanced.

Think about it.

Murder weapon is in his possession.

He fell out with the first victim, and he can't meaningfully account

for his whereabouts at the time of the murders.

Yeah, the problem is, why would he have an issue with Jan Kappel?

There's no known connection between them.

Alright. Hold off arresting him till we find one.

Alright. Hold off arresting him Keep watching him, though.

Keep watching him, though.

How was Jasmijn Brahm? Or Lauren Teuling, as she's now called?

CITRA: Interesting.

Composed.

Quite direct but seemingly open and honest.

Apart from us, three other people tracked her down.

Oh. So much for anonymity. Who?

Both victims.

Oh, Jan?

Jan contacted her?

I mean, we always knew Jan contacted her?

I mean, we always knew the case affected him deeply.

Oh, yeah. He had PTSD for years. But he... you know, he got help.

This is way out of line for him.

Who else contacted her?

A crime museum owner and all-round death freak, Herman Zaal.

He bought the information, passed it on to van der Molden.

Chief?

LUCIENNE: Eric van der Molden wanted

some kind of closure, I guess.

What about the husband? What do we know about him?

Well, he wasn't happy to see us, but...

..neither would I be, if I had that lot tracking me down.

..neither would I be, Let's get everything on him.

Let's get everything on him.

Keep an eye on Zaal as well, as suspect.

CITRA: Or potential next victim.

Like anyone else that went near this case.

Like anyone else I want to see Zoe Waterman again.

I want to see Zoe Waterman again.

And where we at on the CCTV of the couple seen leaving?

They live the floor below Zoe Waterman.

Leaving for their morning run, apparently.

Health freaks? LUCIENNE: No.

Health freaks? More that the party kept them awake,

More that the party kept them awake,

so they thought More that the party kept them awake,

so they thought they'd get out of there.

Although they did mention someone in the apartment next to them,

Although they did mention someone for holiday rent.

for holiday rent.

OK. Find out who.

Better still...

..get the keys.

I need you in my office first.

We've got a visitor.

Oh. What the hell do you think you're doing?

How dare you? How dare you go and see Lauren?

That's an infringement of your powers, and you know it.

I should report you.

PIET: Yeah, well, it was me that disobeyed orders,

but I wouldn't go pointing the finger if I were you.

but I wouldn't go pointing the finger Meaning what exactly?

Meaning what exactly?

You're meant to be in charge of Meaning what exactly?

You're meant to be in charge of keeping her identity secret.

Three people at least have breached that.

Three people at least I mean, maybe we should report you.

I mean, maybe we should report you.

Well, Kappel, just like you guys, abused his position.

Jan Kappel was an experienced professional.

Jan Kappel Really?

Really?

Maybe it was him that sold the information to Zaal.

He wouldn't do that.

PIET: And what about Eric van der Molden?

I mean, not only did he have access to Jasmijn...

I mean, not only did he have access HANNA: Lauren.

HANNA: Lauren.

PIET: Whatever.

..she agreed to meet him.

Can you just imagine what it's like for her?

Can you just imagine She didn't know what she was doing.

She didn't know what she was doing.

She broke the terms of her release. She didn't know what she was doing.

She broke the terms of her release. I mean, that's deceitful.

She broke the terms of her release. Did you report her?

Did you report her?

Of course I did. And she's... she won't do it again.

JULIA: Yeah, well, try and look at it from our point of view.

We have two dead bodies,

both known to Jasmijn... Lauren,

and both linked to her case.

Both made contact with her.

I mean, how do we even know that she's rehabilitated?

Because I know Lauren.

I'm not even sure she was guilty.

In fact, I think she was innocent.

JULIA: Innocent? Yeah.

OK, so, the testimony of the 12-year-old boy could be flawed,

but there were forensics AND a confession.

And more to the point, if she was guilty and isn't rehabilitated,

she might kill again. She won't.

And if she's innocent, did time for a crime she didn't commit,

I don't know, she might have revenge on her mind.

I don't know, She's not a killer.

She's not a killer.

Tell us about the husband, then. JULIA: Oh.

No. PIET: Come on. Give us something.

No. No. 'Cause I don't have to.

No. 'Cause I don't have to.

And that's not why I'm here.

I am here

to tell you that if you I am here

to tell you that if you approach either of them again

to tell you that if you without my permission

without my permission

or without me being there...

..then I will report you.

Understood.

Oh, we could get into very deep water on this.

I know. No change there, then.

HENDRIK: Hey, w...?

What, am I doing your paperwork as well now?

What, am I doing your paperwork CITRA: Not exactly.

CITRA: Not exactly.

Early Christmas presents from Piet.

This is all the forensics on the original Jasmijn Brahm case.

Yeah, well, you can tell Piet to...

Vincent Teuling's a grief counsellor.

Really?

Wonder how they met. How her past came up.

Wonder how they met. It's not your typical pillow talk.

It's not your typical pillow talk.

Wonder how he was able to deal with it.

Well, maybe he hasn't.

Go for it.

Go for it.

Thanks.

It's the apartment owner.

Person staying on the second floor yesterday,

but for one night only, gone now, name of Kroesen.

Right. Got the keys? Nope.

But we've got a code to get in.

Let's do it. Mm-hm.

Is it worth getting Forensics to do a sweep?

When we checked out the CCTV of people leaving,

not just at the time of the murder, all day,

we saw the partygoers leave, we saw the other couple leave,

but we didn't see anyone else.

Yeah.

Whereas this apartment has access to a back way out.

Whereas this apartment has access Exactly.

Exactly.

Hey.

Sorry to ruin the mood, but, uh, we need a word.

So, you two are close, then?

Is there a problem with that? Not at all. Unless it's relevant.

Is there a problem with that? PIET: Did Ric know?

PIET: Did Ric know?

No!

No. It's a recent thing.

Things haven't been...

..weren't great between me and Ric.

I was going to tell him.

No need now.

His death has seen to that.

The apartment next door, I don't suppose

you saw who was staying there yesterday?

No.

What about Jasmijn Brahm?

Do you know her? ZOE: Of her.

Do you know her? I'm familiar with the case.

I'm familiar with the case.

Ric mentioned it.

Did he mention he'd seen her?

Oh, from the look on your face, he didn't.

Oh, from the look on your face, Yeah, Ric's friend, Herman Zaal,

Yeah, Ric's friend, Herman Zaal,

tracked her down.

Ric was deeply disturbed.

He was...

..dark.

He had blind spots. PIET: Such as?

ZOE: There were nightmares.

And anything connected with...

..emotion.

Couldn't really feel for people.

That's why he had no time for the repatriation.

That's why he had no time "What's done is done," he would say.

"What's done is done," he would say.

"What's done is done."

Do you think that applied to Jasmijn Brahm?

Do you think that applied I don't know.

I don't know.

He couldn't get her out of his head.

He...

..he just couldn't let it go.

Did he ever tell you -

I mean, first-hand -

what he saw?

We didn't talk about it.

LUCIENNE: Did he blame Jasmijn?

Was he angry with her?

He...

..tried to understand her.

It's not just that the boys, ..tried to understand her.

It's not just that the boys, her brothers, were his friends.

It's not just that the boys, She was, too.

She was, too.

He looked up to her.

WOMAN: He wasn't the most...

..sensitive.

He could get aggressive.

I'm sorry, but...

..can you be more specific?

He liked aggressive sex.

He liked to be in control and he liked to inflict pain.

He liked to be in control PIET: OK, but...

PIET: OK, but...

..I mean, PIET: OK, but...

..I mean, what exactly gave him a thrill?

Cruelty.

Was Ric van der Molden into cruelty

because he witnessed the ultimate act of it?

because he witnessed Oh, who knows?

Oh, who knows?

What about those two?

They're into each other.

Ric inflicted pain on Zoe.

Maybe she'd had enough.

New girl on the block intervenes. He's not gonna hurt her anymore.

Yeah, but where does Jan fit into that?

Well, we now know he was obsessed with the case.

Maybe he got in touch with Ric van der Molden, too.

Maybe he got in touch Or he discovered something new.

Or he discovered something new.

Do you know this man?

No. Why? Is he dead?

Yes. As a matter of fact, he is.

Hmm.

Can I get some copies of that photo, please,

and, ideally, some additional ones of the crime scene?

How was he killed? Uh, no. You cannot.

Uh, we know that Ric saw Jasmijn Brahm.

Uh, we know Why? What did he want?

Why? What did he want?

To meet her face to face.

Fascinating, right? Look.

Two people who've made contact with Jasmijn Brahm are now dead.

Two people who've made contact Oi.

Oi.

You made contact with her, too.

Meaning I'm next?

That would be fun, wouldn't it?

I could be an exhibit in my own museum.

I could be an exhibit I wouldn't joke about it.

I wouldn't joke about it.

EDDIE: Why did you track her down?

Why do you think?

I mean, this place is fine, but...

..it's sort of full of the dead.

Is that not the point?

It's not the same as a real living, breathing murderer.

It's not the same as Is it?

Is it?

Look, I... I just wanted to say that I'd met one,

maybe take some pictures,

some memorabilia, a couple of anecdotes.

some memorabilia, And did you?

And did you?

No. Her and her husband rejected my request.

They threatened to, uh, hospitalise me

They threatened to, uh, if I didn't stay away.

if I didn't stay away.

OK. I see you joined the RAA.

Wasn't even sure you liked her.

I joined nine months ago.

I just didn't make a song and dance about it.

Hey.

Take a look at this.

Max Langenburg's Take a look at this.

Max Langenburg's coverage of the sword.

Max Langenburg's It disappears for over two hours,

It disappears for over two hours,

during which time Ric van der Molden was killed.

Langenburg could have disabled the security himself.

LUCIENNE: Yeah.

Or whoever took the sword disabled the footage LUCIENNE: Yeah.

Or whoever took the sword disabled the footage

Or whoever took the sword because they knew we'd be looking.

because they knew we'd be looking.

Langenburg claims not to have heard anything.

Maybe he slept through it?

Get Forensics down there.

How was Mr Crime Museum?

CITRA: Interesting.

In a weird kind of way. EDDIE: Yeah.

Nightmare. Literally. Gave me the creeps.

Nightmare. Literally. PIET: What did you get?

PIET: What did you get?

Nothing, just that Vincent Teuling threatened violence on Herman Zaal

Nothing, just that Vincent Teuling if he ever came near his wife again.

if he ever came near his wife again.

Hey, um, might have found something.

Did Lauren Teuling say she knew anything about restitution?

CITRA: No. The opposite. She denied it. Why?

EDDIE: She follows the RAA too.

She lied.

CITRA: Again.

Lauren Teuling. How do you know her?

She's been to a couple of meetings Lauren Teuling. How do you know her?

She's been to a couple of meetings we've had.

She's been a great support, really.

Encouraging me, teaching me.

She's very clever.

I don't doubt that.

It's Forensics. They drew a blank on the apartment.

Although they did think there were signs

someone had wiped the place clean.

Professional job.

What about the collector's house?

What about the collector's house?

Well, officers have already searched the premises. Nothing so far.

Timing never was Lena's strong point.

No, you should really call her back, you know.

No, you should really Yeah. I mean, it's not like I'm busy.

Yeah. I mean, it's not like I'm busy.

I told you we should never have agreed to meet them.

We had little choice. Well, we had some!

We just didn't take it.

Hi. Hi.

We'd like to talk to Lauren alone, if that's alright.

We'd like to talk to Lauren alone, It's not.

It's not.

I didn't mean without you. I meant without him.

I didn't mean without you. What if I'm not happy about that?

What if I'm not happy about that?

LUCIENNE: You can off-load to me.

I want to talk to you anyway.

PIET: Shall we?

You said you didn't know anything about restitution.

But you follow Johanna Kolen, who's all about that.

Am I not allowed to support a worthy cause, even?

My ancestors were plantation owners in North Sumatra.

It's never sat well with me.

Still...

You lied. Why?

I didn't want Johanna sucked into any of this.

I didn't want Johanna Because?

Because?

Because she's an innocent.

What, the person you could have been?

HANNA: Not for 14 years in prison.

Isolation. Vilification. Hatred.

What about before prison?

It really doesn't matter about me.

Well, I think this case proves it does.

Well, I think this case proves I believe in the idea of redemption.

I believe in the idea of redemption.

A country giving back what it stole.

It's never too late.

What if you can't give back what was stolen?

I just want you all to go away.

What about Ric van der Molden and Jan Kappel?

Wanted them to go away? Yes.

I've loved Lauren since the day we met.

I've loved Lauren We deserve our happy ever after.

We deserve our happy ever after.

CITRA: What exactly has Lauren been teaching you?

CITRA: What exactly Um...

Um...

..she thinks I need to learn Um...

..she thinks I need to learn a bit more patience.

..she thinks I need to learn I can be a bit hot-headed sometimes.

I can be a bit hot-headed sometimes.

Can't we all?

No.

Sorry. Yep.

She just seems to know what it's like

to have lost your soul, you know?

Are you saying she's soulless? JOHANNA: No!

No, not her, the museums.

That's what they do. They steal the souls of ancient cultures, right?

She just gets that.

And... how do you think she gets that?

And... how do you think I don't know.

I don't know.

EDDIE: We need to go.

CITRA: OK.

Lauren lived around the corner.

I saw her around.

Always on her own.

I was unhappy, single.

I introduced myself and...

..never left. Love at first sight.

Simple as that.

And then you were together?

No. No.

She kept trying to end it, dozens of times.

I couldn't understand it because we were so good.

And then she told you?

And then she told you? Yes.

Yes.

Thought it would see me off once and for all.

Thought it would see me off And it did,

And it did,

for about three months.

Then what changed?

I figured everyone deserves a second chance.

Lauren and I got married.

We had kids.

We were both happy for the first time in our lives.

And then...

..then they all started contacting her,

..then they all started first Kappel, then Zaal, then Eric.

first Kappel, then Zaal, then Eric.

I'd happily hospitalise them all if I had met them.

You must be pleased that two of them are dead, then.

I just didn't want them bothering us.

Is that so much to ask?

Excuse me a minute.

Yep? EDDIE: Yeah.

It's about Vincent Teuling. LUCIENNE: OK.

It's about Vincent Teuling. EDDIE: He's lying.

EDDIE: He's lying.

He fell out with the first victim, and he can't meaningfully account

for his whereabouts at the time of the murders.

Thanks.

Leave that with me.

LUCIENNE: Van der Molden was his patient.

You said you didn't meet Lauren's unwanted visitors. That right?

You said you didn't meet Lauren's VINCENT: Mm-hm.

VINCENT: Mm-hm.

LUCIENNE: Strange, that.

We checked your client list.

You were We checked your client list.

You were Ric van der Molden's counsellor.

PIET: Why didn't you tell us that?

Patient confidentiality.

Patient confidentiality. PIET: Oh, that's alright.

The dead don't need patient confidentiality.

I'm taking it that was not a coincidence.

I'm taking it No.

No.

I sought him out.

I knew he tried to contact Lauren.

I wanted to know if he was a threat.

Like they say, know your enemy.

Yeah.

Well, he's now a dead enemy.

Let me get this straight - you asked a complete stranger

Let me get this straight - if they needed grief counselling?

if they needed grief counselling?

Aren't they meant to come to you?

I said I knew of the case

and was studying it for a paper I was writing.

and was studying it One thing led to another.

One thing led to another.

He needed help. One thing led to another.

He needed help. I needed to know if he was safe.

Was he? I don't think so, no.

I think he was a deeply traumatised and troubled human being.

You like squirrelling your way into people's lives, don't you?

You like squirrelling your way Lauren is my priority.

Lauren is my priority.

I'd do anything to protect her. PIET: Yeah.

I'd do anything to protect her. That's what worries us.

That's what worries us.

JULIA: What you reading?

Oh, Hanna Zuiderduin's latest report on Lauren Teuling.

LUCIENNE: And Hanna Zuiderduin's file.

LUCIENNE: Yeah. Now, she's interesting.

Yeah. Now, she's interesting.

Used to be married to a police officer.

Used to be married Where's Hendrik?

Where's Hendrik?

Still locked away.

So, what do you two think?

I'm not sure.

Ric van der Molden lost his two best friends.

Ric van der Molden So?

So?

People lose people close to them and cope.

I lost my parents.

Oh, come on.

You'll have checked me out alright.

Thing is, um,

you feel fine most of the time.

But you... you don't know

if that's because you've dealt with it or, um...

if that's because ..you've buried it.

..you've buried it.

It's, um...

..it's the same with, um, Ric and Lauren.

..it's the same with, um, What do you think?

What do you think?

Me?

I don't know about loss, but...

..I believe in forgiveness and redemption.

Everything I know about the case tells me Lauren is guilty, but...

..I don't know, I...

..think maybe it's not her killing now.

And I think...

..but I think maybe she didn't do it back then either.

That's what Piet thought.

LUCIENNE: What, that she was innocent?

Yep.

I disagreed with the court of public opinion.

I disagreed with It seems I was wrong.

It seems I was wrong.

Can't argue with a confession.

Well, actually...

..you can.

False confession syndrome.

Three types.

People who want Three types.

People who want their 15 minutes of fame.

People who confess under pressure to get the police off their back.

Vulnerable people -

genuinely, but wrongly, believe they did it.

They internalise the guilt

and accept the version of events they're presented with.

and accept the version of events I mean...

I mean...

..we know she had blackouts.

So, do you think she was innocent?

I don't know.

But if she didn't kill her brothers, who did?

Sorry to, uh, interrupt.

Uh...

..I went to the boat,

but you weren't there, so I...

..figured you...

..might be here.

I'm here.

I'm... really sorry.

We're, uh, busy.

Oh, so, now's...

..not a good time?

OK. Sorry.

I know I lied.

And I know I hurt you.

I didn't mean to. I...

..I regret that.

And if you...

..could see it in you to... to...

..um, at least...

..let me try to explain,

I, uh...

..uh...

..I'd like to think we...

..could at least be...

..friends?

I don't really do friends.

I mean...

..I mean, a...

..part from this lot.

Lena, now's...

..really not a good time.

Oh.

Yeah.

OK.

OK. Sorry.

Right.

Let's fight fire...

..with fire.

You coming or what? Yeah.

HERMAN: Yeah. OK! OK!

How you doing?

Hi.

We're just trying to summon Jasmijn Brahm's...

..brothers.

If that fails, we'll try Al Capone or Vlad the Impaler.

If that fails, we'll try CITRA: You don't give up, do you?

CITRA: You don't give up, do you?

I gather you want to meet a real murderer.

News spreads.

Why? Have you got one?

Possibly. Yeah.

I mean, I'd have asked you to help me...

I mean, ..catch them, but, uh...

..catch them, but, uh...

Hey. No, no, no. What? What? What?

Oh, it's... it's way too risky.

Risk is my middle name.

OK, well, it's Christopher, but, please.

OK, well, it's Christopher, Listen to me.

Listen to me.

We'll have to take Listen to me.

We'll have to take a lot of precautions.

We'll have to take We'll have to get you kitted out.

We'll have to get you kitted out.

I'm not joking.

This is life-or-death.

Count me in.

You've really talked me into this.

I'll be in touch.

Hi, Jasmijn. It's Herman Zaal here.

Don't hang up. I'll go to the press.

Yeah, we did a ouija board last night. Your brothers came through.

Yeah, we did a ouija board last They're not happy.

They're not happy.

Haarlemmerpoort.

There's a bench. You can't miss it.

Why don't you come and say hello this time,

Why don't you come on your own?

on your own?

Done.

Good.

OK. You two, find cover.

Out of sight but close enough to step in if needs be.

We're staying here, are we?

PIET: I'm not. We're staying here, are we?

PIET: I'm not. I've got an errand to run.

PIET: I'm not. Right, stay here,

Right, stay here,

within striking range, case it kicks off.

Why me? Because you're the best shot.

Right? The killer hasn't seen you yet.

Right? Chill out. I'm coming back.

Chill out. I'm coming back.

PIET: Yep. Piet.

When are you gonna give me a problem I can't solve?

You see, the DNA wasn't such a thing then,

not least because Jasmijn lived in the house and confessed.

And as a result, no-one,

and that's no-one,

checked the fibres on the boys' hobbyhorse.

The one the killer used to light the petrol.

No-one, that is...

..until me.

Is Lauren in?

WOMAN: OK, I'm here. What do you want?

Just to talk.

WOMAN: OK. Fire away.

JASMIJN: Stop it.

I don't want any more of this.

PIET: Herman Zaal, meet Jasmijn Brahm.

PIET: Herman Zaal, Jasmijn Brahm, meet Herman Zaal.

Jasmijn Brahm, meet Herman Zaal.

Now, move. What? What?

Let's go.

PIET: You intercepted the call.

You got here first.

You planned to silence Herman You got here first.

You planned to silence Herman like you did Ric and Jan.

Got no sword this time?

JASMIJN: Hanna?

Hanna, why are you doing this?

Do not move!

Go.

Move!

Stay here with him.

JASMIJN: Hanna. Please, stop it. No, no, no. Come.

JASMIJN: Hanna. Please, stop it. JASMIJN: Let me go, please.

JASMIJN: Let me go, please.

OK. It's OK.

It's not a toy, is it?

You're not gonna use it on Jasmijn, are you?

You did all this to protect her.

I mean, you might take me out, but then...

I mean, you might ..my team will take you out, so...

..my team will take you out, so...

..what's the point?

Exactly.

What is the point, when everyone's corrupt,

What is the point, when all the systems fail?

when all the systems fail?

Your justice? There's no such thing.

You didn't report Jasmijn

when she met up with Ric.

You said you did, but you didn't.

You just upped the surveillance on Lauren and listened in even more.

And that's what Jan Kappel found out, isn't it?

I don't understand.

It's OK. Took me a while.

Breaking into Max Langenburg's,

not leaving a trace.

Same with the rented apartment.

It's very professional.

Did you learn that from your partner?

He was killed, wasn't he?

Well, I say killed.

He committed suicide.

With this gun.

After he was wrongly accused

and blamed of something that he didn't do.

Still, what's that got to do with me?

Because you were wronged!

Even more so.

You thought Jasmijn was innocent.

But you are, aren't you?

Ric van der Molden,

aged 12, he set fire to the house.

Fibres from the hobbyhorse...

..they don't have your DNA on them.

But they do have Ric's.

No-one checked.

Did you know it was Ric?

Is that why you took him out?

He was...

..almost bragging about it.

And that was your justice?

You take out Ric, Jan?

I mean, he was a...

..he was a good man.

Who was getting too close!

I want this to stop. Yes, so do I, and it can now.

I want this to stop. Because you were wronged, OK?

Because you were wronged, OK?

I was wronged.

PIET: That doesn't justify I was wronged.

PIET: That doesn't justify killing other people.

I was righting a wrong! No, you weren't!

You weren't. You weren't. I killed my brothers. No-one else.

You weren't. You weren't. But he, uh...

But he, uh...

The forensics. He just said.

They were wrong.

I still don't know why, or where it came from,

I still don't know why, but I have to live with that.

but I have to live with that.

Carl and Jonas...

..they deserve better.

Not me.

I am grateful for a second chance at life, but...

..I don't deserve it.

But...

Oh!

It's over.

Thank you.

I should thank YOU.

It was pretty heroic, what you did back there.

Admitting guilt? Yeah.

Admitting guilt? Given that you were lying.

Given that you were lying.

It distracted Hanna.

It's not the truth, though, is it?

Well, I... I don't think I'll ever know for sure.

Well, I... I don't think I have no memory of it.

I have no memory of it.

Listen.

The forensics are right.

Don't you want to clear your name?

It won't change anything.

It won't bring Carl and Jonas back.

And Ric got what he had coming.

Restorative justice.

Restitution.

Um...

..I lied about something else too.

Yeah?

I did remember you from the case.

Because I could see that you were at least open to the possibility

Because I could see that you were that I was innocent.

that I was innocent.

You didn't judge.

And I thank you for that.

If I'd fought harder for you back then...

But I wouldn't have had my second chance.

But I wouldn't have had And second chances are good.

And second chances are good.

Are they?

I wouldn't have Vincent and the kids.

I wouldn't have found happiness.

I hope you find that, too.

JASMIJN: Come on.

You won't be seeing me again.

No offence, but good.

You know, I envy you.

Your happiness.

You've earnt it.

Haven't you?

Not yet.

No.
