"Account for the causes of the crisis
according to Thomas Pikory's..."

-Piketty's.
-Oh...

"Thomas Piketty's 'Capital'

vs Niels Sandøe and Thomas
Svaneborg's 'Other People's Money'."

-How long do you have?
-A week.

-One week to read all that?
-Yes.

You know what you could write?

The financial crisis was due to
greed, a mortal sin inherent in Man.

That's very poetic, Dad,
but not what they want.

-Esther says you're pumping iron.
-Just a bit of MMA.

Wicked, dude.

Aren't you a bit old for that?

There we go.
You can use the dishwasher again.

But you have to get
the pipework re-laid.

I don't know who did this,
but it's botched.

Right. If we were to fix all that...

Could the kitchen then be moved
and a bathroom installed upstairs?

Anything is possible.
When do you want to start?

-Something wrong?
-No.

We just don't know...
what we want yet.

-What do you think?
-You bought new clothes, right?

Yes, it's unlikely that Zeller would
wear the same clothes all the time.

-Jacqueline is paying, right?
-No, I took it from Esther's account.

You did what?

-We'll have 3.5 million soon.
-That depends on today.

I Googled Frank Zeller.

I got four hits
about a German biologist.

I see. But I did think of that.

Frank Zeller got a Russian hacker
to delete his digital identity.

-A Russian hacker?
-Yes. They're good at it.

He won't believe it.

How do you think Donald Trump
became president? Russian hackers.

Why delete his identity?
Is Zeller a pedophile?

-He wants to be president?
-You used to trust me.

But everything hinges on you
winning Mads Morell's trust.

-I can do it.
-Did you do research on him?

What schools did he go to?
What's his favorite music?

Mads has mandibular prognathism
with dentoalveolar compensation.

What?

His incisors are too close together.
But he didn't want braces.

-Did you look at his dental records?
-You manage Willadsen.

-I'll manage Morell.
-Okay.

-Frank Zeller?
-Yes.

Come.

Let me know if I have to hand
anything over to my lawyer, Birgitta.

Not at the moment.

We'll sign it at the UN City
in ten days. So don't worry.

I'm not worried.

It looks good.

Good. You draw up the contract,
and I'll see you at the UN City.

Sorry.

-Sorry.
-That's okay.

That's what we're here for.

Okay.

On your feet, Frank.

That Russian from Baltic Bio Lab,
how did you know it was a fake?

Because I have a client
who got the same call.

-Are you in pharmaceuticals?
-My client is.

-Who is that client?
-You ask too many questions.

Who is it?

I don't know you that well.
We can talk about it over lunch.

Fine. We'll have lunch.

You're supposed
to be Dorthe Graversen.

-Employed in a pharma company?
-Yes, before Willadsen worked there.

So who does he think he's meeting?

An author called Katrine.
I'm doing research for a crime novel

about the pharmaceutical industry.

It's a good resemblance.

Your thumb, please.

-Not now, Nina.
-It's Kaj.

-Hi, sweetie.
-Hello, this is Lucas's mother.

-Did anything happen?
-Kaj scratched Lucas!

-What's up with him?
-Can I call back?

-I am busy.
-But we need to talk about this.

Thanks. Bye.

Was Kaj in a fight? That's awful.

-Is it ready?
-Yes.

I just connect it to his phone,
right?

Come back here
after your meeting with Willadsen.

I can't. I have to go back to work
for a meeting.

You say you're a consultant.

-A coach?
-Isn't that a swear word nowadays?

I advise a select group of people.

-And who are they?
-Business people.

Who do what?
Tell you all their problems?

I know money. And I know
what money does to people.

-I'm not into values clarification--
-What's your first memory of money?

The first time you understood it.

Do you remember?

Okay... My father had a desk...

"My father."

I asked about your memory of money

and you say, "My father."

-Do people pay you for that?
-They pay big bucks.

Cheers.

-Allan, right? Hi.
-Yes.

Thanks for meeting me.
It's so kind of you.

Do you mind if I powder my nose?

-Not at all.
-Thanks.

Thanks so much.
Order some coffee for us.

I don't get any hits
when I Google you.

Mads, I don't tell many people this,
but I'll tell you.

I had a different life.
I was obsessed with money.

And I mean big-time.
VAT carousels, loan carousels,

tax havens, cars and boats.

I had a Sunseeker Predator 84
berthed in Cagnes-sur-Mer.

I ran some investment firms with the
guys behind the Roskilde Bank crash.

And one day I got a call, and I knew
that it was time to get out.

-From the tax authorities?
-No, I was going to be a father.

It turned everything upside down.
Did I want to be like my father?

Who was never around
and only thought of money?

Come on. This crap isn't working.
Come on!

UPLOADING CALL LOG

Heidi? Who's little Heidi? My...

All the money I made
and all the deals I closed

were for one reason only.
To get my father's approval.

But why can't I Google you?

Right. We were talking about Google.

The thing was
that I had stepped on some toes.

I mean, really stepped on them,
and they were dead set on...

finding me.

So I paid a Russian hacker a fortune
to delete every trace of me.

All my codes, accounts, profiles,
digital fingerprints, cookies,

and to delete me from Google,
Facebook, CIA, NSA.

And Putin and whoever else is inside
our computers and phones.

That's why you can't find me.
I don't exist on the internet.

I did a Control-Alt-Delete.

Respect.

Yeah.

I put a whole life behind me.
Everything.

-Do you also use public transport?
-Crazy. I drive a Maserati.

I can't drive an SUV
like some loser from the suburbs.

Yes, two of those, please.

Nice jacket.

My husband should wear
something like that.

But he doesn't. Far from it.

As I wrote...

I'm writing a crime novel.

-Nordic noir.
-Yes.

I have decided that it takes place
in a pharmaceutical company.

Because I want to create a contrast
between killing and cures.

That field of tension
is super interesting.

But I don't know a thing
about pharmaceutical companies.

So I have thousands of questions.

Look at Manchester City.
They're not just into soccer.

They want to be multinational.
Soccer's version of Coca-Cola.

It's money from Abu Dhabi and China.

Holy shit.

One of my old clients is sitting
there. Dorthe. Beautiful girl.

She works in pharmaceuticals.

-With whom?
-What's their name?

Pentax? Zen?

Zentax Medical.

-You know them?
-Zentax took one of our patents.

-Sure, it's her?
-You don't easily forget Dorthe.

-What are you doing?
-Yes, what am I doing?

The guy opposite her.

-He's working in our company.
-Really? I'll be damned.

That's genius.

-You can use it.
-Yes.

Excellent. It really is.

-The lab technician altered...
-Yes.

-The drug, right?
-Yes.

-Yes. That's evil.
-Yes.

-Sorry.
-How is he?

-Your son. After his operation.
-He's doing fine.

It was just minor surgery.

He had ear tubes inserted.

Thanks very much for coming.

I'm sorry.

-Can we...?
-Yes.

What's going on?

Everything is up in the air.

Things are chaotic at home.

-I'm sorry if it's because of me.
-No, it's not.

-Okay. Good.
-It's...

My criminal past has come back
to haunt me.

-Excuse me?
-What?

Sorry. I don't know why I said that.

Berthelin, I'm here now.

-It won't happen again. I promise.
-Okay.

Hi, Mom.

-How are things at school?
-Good.

Is there something
you want to tell me?

Hey!

Not even about Lucas?

-Hi, champ. Did Jacqueline call?
-No.

Morell swallowed it
hook, line and sinker. And you?

It was fine. We'll talk later. Okay?

Yes, of course.

Look at me, sweetie.

Tell me the truth.
Did you scratch Lucas?

Then why did his mom say you did?

Because Lucas and Pelle
always play together.

And that upsets you?

And then you happened
to scratch him?

You mustn't scratch others.

You mustn't lie either.

Especially not to your mother.

It's against the law.

Thanks for coming on such short
notice. It's an unusual situation.

I assure you
that none of this is true.

-You never talked to Graversen?
-She said her name was Katrine.

She was writing about a lab
technician who was a murderer.

But you spoke confidentially with a
representative from our competition.

I would never betray InvoPharma.

This is the log of outgoing calls
from your phone.

Do you still claim
you've never spoken to her?

Here's a list of sent emails.

Top secret internal emails
that you forwarded to Zentax Medical.

This is a lie, Sif. It's all a lie.

I never made those calls
or sent those emails.

If you leave quietly, Allan,
we won't take it any further.

Mads?

Yes?

I'd like you to take over
and close the deal with UNHCR.

Lucas's mother posted something
on the school intranet.

"I hope that this description of the
episode makes it 'crystal clear'

that action must be taken."

And Pelle's parents
wrote a long thread.

"There has to be 'at the very least'
a minimum of decent behavior

and civility among the children."

Did they write all that
because Kaj scratched Pelle?

Lucas.

I know a Russian hacker who can
make Lucas's mother disappear.

You have three new matches
on Tinder.

Oh, that's...

Jacqueline thought that I-- No,
Zeller should have a Tinder profile.

You wrote back to them.

-How's your assignment going?
-Fine.

Oh, I have this...

A friend from college has worked with
financial cases. I thought--

I'm not talking to your friend.

How did we go wrong
with those kids?

By lying to them for 17 years, maybe.

I think it's because of us.

-Us?
-Yes! They can sense the turmoil.

That's just ridiculous.

-"Auto", "Eco". Hm...
-Erik.

"Eco", "Auto", "Quick", which one?

Erik, can we focus on this?
Erik, please.

-What do you want?
-We have to talk about this.

-What do you want to talk about?
-Awesome attitude!

You think the kids are the problem?
It's not the kids!

I'm not saying it is!

-Our problem is the guy at your work.
-No, it's not Berthelin.

-It is.
-It's you and me!

Popular guy.

Hi, Jacqueline.

Yes. Sure

I'll be right there. Okay, bye.

Right. See you.

Willadsen has been sacked, so now
we can proceed with Mads Morell.

-Are you listening?
-Yes.

Don't forget the ring.

-How are things in the suburbs?
-Fine.

Check this out.

Mads is in there now.

We have to make him believe
the agreement with UNHCR is at risk.

What?

Stay here.

Just say when you've had enough.

What the hell? Hi, Mads!

-Are you stalking me?
-I have to thank you.

-For what?
-Dorthe Graversen. Zentax Medical.

-What about her?
-I don't know where to start.

Hi.

No more talk about work.
This is Kirstine.

-Hi, Frank.
-Kirstine.

What's this project good for anyway?
"Why was there a financial crisis?"

-That's not the best attitude.
-Yes, for you.

This assignment counts double.

So you just have to
pull yourself together.

It's as if you and the teachers,
politicians and all of society

just want to push us to the point
when we start cutting ourselves.

Sweetie, no. Look at me and Dad.

If Dad had had a higher education
a lot of things would be different.

Life doesn't always turn out
as we think.

Pay attention, would you?
We are having a conversation.

Turn it off.

I'd better get back to it then.

-Esther...
-Mom, please leave.

Okay.

Frank, there are loads of goodies
right here.

Hey! What are you doing?

-That one?
-No.

-What about her?
-No.

-She's hot.
-Hey, you got a match. "Pia 99."

-Show me.
-Give her a yes.

There. It says she's nearby.

-Why don't I tell her to come over?
-I haven't even seen her.

Done.

-I didn't see her.
-A bottle of Moët.

ERIK'S IPHONE
LESS THAN A MINUTE AGO

Thank you! Cheers!

-Hi! Are you Frank?
-Yes.

-Are you Pia? Hi.
-Yes.

-Nice to meet you.
-Great that you could make it.

-Won't you sit down?
-Thanks.

This is Mads, we work out together.

-Mads is a director.
-No. I'm a Project Vice President.

At a big pharmaceutical company,
InvoPharma.

-Did you say InvoPharma?
-Yes, correct.

That rings a bell.
You collaborate with the UN?

Yeah, well... UNHCR.

You see, I work as an interpreter.

At the UN in Geneva, the UN HQ.

An interpreter.

I have something for you
to interpret.

You're a bit fresh, mister!

I'll go get a cloth or something.

Sorry!

It's just champagne.

I'll just ask straight out. When you
negotiate contracts with the UN,

have you been in situations
where they...

No, never mind.
We won't talk about that now.

Are you two together?

Oh, I'm sorry!
I tend to be a bit too outspoken.

Situations such as?

It's all just rotten to the core,
that whole system.

I don't want to talk about it.
We're off the clock!

-Let's just drink champagne!
-What's rotten?

Hey!
I found something to... dab you with.

You have my permission to dab.
Dab away.

And I got us the upstairs lounge.
Come!

Come!

Pia, tell me about the...

Some just don't play by the rules.
There are the official agreements

and the other ones. If you have
money, you can buy them.

Regardless of requirements.
I'm not supposed to talk about this!

So there's bribery in the UN?

-Including in the UNHCR?
-Yes.

-Also here in Copenhagen?
-I'm just an interpreter.

I have to translate all the mess.

Yes.

-I'm leaving.
-What?

-Have they left?
-Yes.

Jesus, I think he bought it.

You're drunk.

Uh, yeah,
I kinda had to play the part.

Tomorrow we must turn these
rumors into reality for him, okay?

We should leave together.

Whoa, I must have the wrong house.

My home can't possibly be this ugly.

I'm not interrupting something, am I?

-Hi. Hello.
-Hello.

My name is Frank Zeller.

-And what is your name?
-Nina.

-Do you come here often, Nina?
-Yes, too often.

-Are you all alone?
-No, I'm married.

Ah, what a lucky bastard.
He's a lucky man.

Fuck! What was that?

Do you have a train in the yard?

-Kaj is sleeping. Quiet, quiet.
-Incredible.

All this, Nina...

Mom, dad, kids, a house...

Do you think it's working?

For your information,
we replaced the entire phone system.

Have you noted down the number?

Excellent. Goodbye.

UNHCR just called. They've moved
your meeting with Birgitta Engdahl.

-Is there a new date?
-No.

If there isn't a new date,
that means they've cancelled it.

Yes,
but they didn't mention a new date.

You can call them.

They have a new system,
so now it's this number.

-Get me some aspirin or something.
-I don't have any.

We're a pharma company! We must
have something for my headache!

Come on, Heidi.

Dad? It says on the school intranet
that I'm a violent psychopath.

Good for you,
that means they respect you.

Okay?

Where were you last night?

Peter is feeling like crap
these days, so I wanted to be...

there for him.

You're a good friend.

-Violent psychopath?
-It says so on the school intra.

Welcome to UNHCR.

If you know the extension number of
the person you wish to reach...

-Birgitta Engdahl.
-Mads Morell from InvoPharma.

What can I do for you, Mads Morell?

I hear you've moved our meeting, so
I'm calling to arrange a new date.

I usually talk to Allan Willadsen.

Yes, but he's on leave,
so you're talking to me now.

I just wanted to know
when we can sign the agreement.

Hello? Do you understand Danish?

Yes. I understand Danish very well.

When can we sign the documents?

I have no wish to waste your time.

I am unable to offer you
the contract just yet.

What are you saying? Why not?

We've received a very interesting
offer that we can't reject.

Unless...

No, no. We're past the point
where you consider anyone else.

I can tell how things work with you.

There's no reason to shout.

-I won't stand for this!
-Use your brain.

Listen, Birgitta Engdahl...
You can't do this!

Calm down.

No!

No! Fuck...

Dad!

Make it quick.
I'm giving Beate a lift.

Did Willadsen ever mention...

certain incidents
with Birgitta Engdahl?

-What incidents?
-Did she demand something?

You're on top of this, right?
The sale is on the line here.

There are a couple of details,
but of course it's right on track.

Say hi to Beate for me.

-Frank Zeller.
-It's Mads.

Hi, Mads.
What a great night last night.

-I need to talk to Pia.
-Okay.

Hi, Mads.

It was great to meet you last night.

So, what do you make of it, Pia?
What is going on?

That's just what they do.
It's exactly as I've heard.

Do you know anything
about that woman, Birgitta Engdahl?

Is she at the UN
here in Copenhagen?

I can't imagine she'd be involved
in anything like that.

She's putting the squeeze on me.

Seriously, Mads,
you should go to the police.

I just want to tell my father
to lawyer up and go after her.

Of course.
It's the right thing to do.

But it takes about 2-3 years for
a case like that to run its course.

Everything comes to a halt, but I
expect you've got the means for that.

Fuck...

Hey, buddy... what?

Is it a big contract or...?

-Do you know Alliance Capital?
-Yes.

They're in the process of buying us
for 2 billion.

Okay...

They'll only go through with the deal
if the UNHCR contract is secured.

She's giving it to someone else,
I just know it.

And we've fired the guy
who handled the negotiations.

It's on my head now.

-I can't blow this deal.
-You won't. Mads, breathe.

You know what you'll do?
Go along with it.

Those that get to host the Olympics,
don't have the biggest stadiums.

They pay the right people
the right amount at the right time.

It's the name of the game.
Listen to what I'm telling you.

-Meet with... what's her name?
-Birgitta Engdahl.

Find out what the others offered,
and go higher.

Isn't that how this is done?

Hey! No one needs to know.

Not even daddy.

-You have to get that contract.
-Yes.
