Original subtitles

I'm sorry to tell you Martin's dead.

I just got the DNA result. Same perpetrator.

Okay, we have a double murder.

Klaus Munk Andersen?

- Was this boy on the train? - There was nobody.

You stop the train and throw him out?

- Let's stop. - Wait! Answer...

We're stopping.

The DNA confirms it's Klaus.

Have you ever been to Klaus's place?

No.

Your fingerprints are there.

Request for Assistance A-33/00

- Why did you invite LaCour? - He was giving a lecture.

- About? - Crime scenes.

Exactly! He's the field's leading expert.

If he wanted to commit a murder, would he leave a single clue?

They can hear you at the other end of the corridor!

- Ingrid's very dedicated. - What I am...

I'm furious to see LaCour brought in by uniformed officers.

It was an order from Copenhagen.

Your chief put in a request

for us to investigate the murder of Klaus Munk Andersen.

That's up to my chief, but aren't you compromised?

In my opinion, LaCour's innocent and we must find Klaus's killer.

We'll keep this to ourselves. I'll deal with the press. Right?

- Yes. - Got it.

- Where's LaCour? - In the conference room.

I know I can't talk to him but I can give him coffee, right?

You think it's me?

Fischer, you think I did it?

- I'm asking you. - Stop it.

Okay. Gaby! What about you?

My fingerprints were everywhere. Try playing detective.

Shut up!

You guys think it was me?

We'd like to be alone.

- Still can't remember anything? - No.

Listen...

Go to your car and drive to Copenhagen...

See the public prosecutor and tell him what you remember.

Then go home. Let's call it leave, okay?

Right.

I enter the room...

he's there...

I'm there...

I can feel him.

I can smell him. He stank of booze...

when he was strung up.

If it's not me, I don't get it.

Here you're innocent till proven guilty

despite what you feel.

When you see the prosecutor, tell him what you know,

not what you feel or smell.

I said you'd be there at 17.00 sharp.

Bye.

UNIT ONE

EPISODE 16

How are you?

What did the public prosecutor say?

It was just a formality.

He just began his investigation officially...

and told me I can't do shit.

- Why can't I remember? - You've been hit.

I remember nothing from before, not even being in the house.

Did something happen to you when you found that boy?

- Grim, right? - He could have been mine.

- Thomas, he couldn't. - Yes, he could.

I have a son... whom I've never seen.

We didn't agree over it, but...

I definitely didn't want a baby.

You have a son?

How old?

Almost ten.

There's no reason to punish yourself

by thinking you killed Klaus.

- Thomas... - Don't!

You could never have done it.

When you waved that gun at me, you controlled yourself.

That's what you did this time.

- Thomas... - Shut up, damn it!

Forensics, Copenhagen 07.53, Tuesday October 24

Mum, I'll take the bus.

Honey, you won't get away so easily.

I want some time with you. Back in five.

- Morning, Ingrid. - Hi, Jan. Is the report finished?

- Dorthe just brought it in. - Dorthe?

Hang on. I'll just say goodbye.

Thanks for last night, honey. It was lovely. See you tonight.

Okay? I'll make a dinner you'll never forget. Bye, honey.

I'm back.

Since when did you talk to yourself?

- Where did she go? - How odd.

- Really odd. - Jan!

Ingrid, how can one make you jealous?

- You almost did. - I did? Free tonight?

- Yes, but you're seeing Dorthe! - Stop it.

I'm off to Helsing�r. LaCour's really out of it.

I heard. But he's too professional to do something like this.

Look...

See this horizontal welt? That killed him.

Meaning?

He was probably strangled from behind while sitting in a chair.

- And the sloping welt... - Yes?

That happened when he was strung up.

You're sure he was already dead?

Yes, look at these blotches. The body had been stowed.

- For how long? - At least half an hour.

Time of death?

Between 05.00 and 08.00 on Monday.

LaCour dropped Helene off at 07.20.

How long to Klaus's place? Ten minutes?

Why wait by the body for half an hour?

Thought you were sure about him.

- Any alcohol in his blood? - He had a level of around 2.8.

- So he stank of booze? - Certainly.

- Oh, congratulations. - On what?

- Your birthday. - Thanks. It's tomorrow.

Hi, Tobias. Shouldn't you be at school?

- Yes. - I'll take you.

- I'm going to the court anyway. - No, he can go by train.

We were on our way.

Well, yes...

Aren't you off to Helsing�r?

Thanks, Jan.

How about goodbye?

- Take care. - Bye.

Crime scene, Helsing�r 08.43, Tuesday October 24

Thanks.

Are you sure?

Klaus made it easy for us.

He must have cleaned all Saturday.

- Doesn't look like it. - His family was here for dinner.

On Sunday?

A family dinner the day we questioned him?

Prearranged.

What about LaCour?

He came in here.

His prints are here.

Forensics think Klaus was strangled in that chair.

- What with? - We don't know yet.

And here... LaCour left a lot of prints.

It can't be true.

- There has to be a third person. - There was.

What?

In the bedroom is evidence of another man.

- When? - Sunday night.

Okay. He was with a man the night he was killed?

- Did he leave any DNA? - Without doubt.

The sheets will be examined and we found prints on a bottle.

Why not say so before?

Because...

Only LaCour's prints were on the cable

Klaus was strung up on.

- What makes people kill? - Usually the deadly sins.

Jealousy, money, sex...

No, I mean actually doing it, not just wanting to.

- Think LaCour did it? - If he did, couldn't we all?

- I could. - I couldn't.

Could what, Johnny?

If somebody touched my boys... I could kill.

You could?

Yes, I'm just saying I understand if LaCour felt that way.

So you think he did it?

- I don't know. - Stick to what you do know.

Right?

- He knows this is under wraps? - He does.

- What the hell's he doing here? - Fischer!

See you when I get back.

Bye.

Me too. Yes, drive safely.

- Bye. - "Me too."

If we're done with our private lives, may we start?

- You checked the phone record? - It seems desperate.

Klaus rang the same number repeatedly for two hours

on Sunday night.

He got through at 02.12 and spoke for three minutes.

- Whose number is it? - We don't know.

It's an unregistered mobile.

- Haven't you called the number? - I did. Nobody answered.

We take his DNA, he knows it's over

and there's one person he must talk to.

- Would his sister know? - I'll check.

She works for her husband.

- Okay. And the '8F' garbage bag? - Fischer, check the dump.

- What am I looking for? - A green bag with yellow ties.

- Containing? - We don't know.

Klaus could have hidden something.

Interview of sister and brother-in-law 10.14, Tuesday October 24

We're spring-cleaning.

This phone number... Ring any bells?

No. Should it?

No. It's a person your brother tried to reach the night he died.

Klaus's friends weren't our friends.

- IP J�rgensen, Unit One. - Ulrik Gregersen.

Sorry to disturb you again.

I quite understand.

The night you had dinner with Klaus...

Was he expecting anyone else?

No, certainly not.

He was quite intoxicated.

Intoxicated? He was totally pissed.

This number... Do you know it?

Karin's right. He was pissed.

- He really had another visitor? - Yes.

A man? And they were together?

I know who.

Sonny... the young gigolo.

- Honey, we don't really know. - He was obsessed with him.

Sonny? No other name?

Just Sonny. That's his... stage name.

Klaus said he'd been interviewed and that you took his DNA.

Yes.

- Did he kill those boys? - We don't know yet.

You went to arrest him yesterday.

The worst thing is, I really thought I knew him.

This is it.

He logged everything meticulously.

Here...

"17 May 1998... 13.42 to 14.03. Had a beer in the garden.

"17.06 to 17.34. Went shopping.

"18.02 to 18.24. Had pork sausages for dinner."

- When did he pee? - "Train on time."

It's all here.

"28 September 1998.

"15.43. He wouldn't. His name was Lasse."

"15 October 2000.

"Martin cried. Wanted to tell his dad."

"Grabbed his throat."

Because they resisted... he killed them.

But here's one who didn't resist. It's way back in 92.

Here.

"He will be invaluable."

Sonny! Is he the one he rang all night?

Could be. He met Sonny when Sonny was ten.

First, he used him himself

then trained him up and rented him out to other men.

Look at this..."August 94". It's like a household account.

It's grotesque... Poul, Bjarne Q, Flemming,

The Snake, Henning, The Snake.

The Snake is interesting. He pays 1000 more each time.

This has been going on since Sonny was twelve.

In public baths, rest stops, all sorts of places.

- We only have first names? - Yes.

The Snake... What was he allowed to do?

I can't bear to think.

Bjarne Q... There's a Bjarne Quist.

A paedophile.

- Where does he live? - Here in Helsing�r.

Bjarne Quist wasn't home.

A neighbour said he goes to the baths every day so here I am.

Should I wait for him?

Good.

Hi.

Aren't you cold?

- Sitting here? - Yes.

- Warm, huh? - Yes.

Nice trunks.

Hello!

Hey, you!

There's no access through here. You must...

It's regulations.

- Okay? - Thanks.

- What's your name? - August.

- You alone? - I'm with my brother.

- Could you go back to him? - Yes.

Would you like to talk to me also?

Yes? If you'd dress and get your thingy down,

we'll go and talk somewhere.

I take Helene to the platform...

I see the train leave... from the station.

Suddenly I start thinking, what if he takes off?

I drive to his place...

There you go. He's all yours.

- What the hell's going on? - Yes, exactly.

Hi, IP. His alibi checks out.

He was in Thailand until yesterday.

But he gave me Sonny's real name and address.

It's Cliff Jensen. He lives with his mother.

She runs a brothel by the docks.

Should I pick him up now?

Crime scene 14.43, Tuesday October 24

DNA says Klaus killed those boys.

You promised...

Frankly, sometimes a story is too good to suppress.

Just a sec!

- You shouldn't be here. - I need to check a few things.

Aren't you on leave?

You should get in your car and go back to Copenhagen.

In return, I'll forget you were ever here.

- Why's LaCour not allowed in? - No comment.

I've had a secret crush on you for ages. Want that to change?

Stop it.

October 24, it's 16.15.

Interrogation of Cliff Jensen, aka Sonny,

regarding the murder of Klaus Munk Andersen.

- What do you call yourself? - Call me Sonny.

Okay, Sonny.

We found Klaus's diaries

and it says "Sonny" on almost every page.

It's written here that he met you on the train to Odense

just before Christmas Eve in 1992.

Who were you visiting in Odense?

Nobody.

I went back and forth.

- Why? - Mum had clients.

You were ten.

Did Klaus invite you home for Christmas?

- Did he call you "Sonny"? - You needed a father?

Come off it.

He wrote that you were almost like a son to him.

But you weren't his son.

In a way.

A father wouldn't let strangers touch his son.

Think not?

The last thing Klaus wrote before he died was...

It's here... at 02.12. "Sonny's on his way."

Is that right? Did you go?

We found your prints on a bottle in the bedroom.

Okay, I was there.

- For how long? - Half an hour.

- Are you sure? - Yes.

- Why did you go there? - He needed me.

I don't get it. Was half an hour long enough

to drink Coke, fuck him and kill him?

I didn't kill him.

Want to know how Klaus described your first meeting?

"He just loves it. He will be invaluable."

- He gave you lots of presents? - Yes.

No wonder, when you think of the money he made out of you.

Want to know how much?

He made 765,342 kroner.

- That's a lie. - No. It's actually written here.

If he wasn't dead, I'd kill him.

All the men on this list have committed a criminal offence.

Want them to go free?

No? Then help me.

Who are they? Poul, Flemming, Henning...

- I don't know. - That can't be true.

The Snake... Why does he pay so much more?

You've been with him lots of times. Who is he?

I don't know.

I'd be blindfolded when he came.

Not very nice.

I'll tell you what's nice... being left in peace.

You will be, but first

admit you were with Klaus and that you killed him.

Everyone will understand.

When did he die?

Monday, between 5 and 8 a.m.

I was doing my Lady Diana show in Christiania.

And afterwards?

- I left with Hillary. - Hillary?

Her other name?

John Jensen.

It's 16.21. Interrogation terminated.

Not nice, is it?

Listen, no kid wants to do it with adults.

No.

Sorry, I needed some fresh air.

I wept too at the start of my pregnancy.

- I'll work tonight. - Fine.

Okay. There were at least 200 fags

bawling their eyes out at Sonny's show.

After the show he scored Hillary, aka John Jensen,

who confirms "serving Sonny a sumptuous breakfast in bed".

Well, it looks like there's only one option left.

- You'll never do that again? - No.

Ouch! That hurt!

One all.

I thought maybe you'd like to look over the case.

I was never here and you're in Copenhagen, okay?

Right.

Gaby?

Gaby, are you there?

- Why lock the bloody door? - Why not bring a bloody key?

Why scare the hell out of me?

Hold your horses! I couldn't sleep.

I've got LaCour on the brain. Are you okay?

Hey! I scared you, huh? Sorry, sorry.

- All right? - Yes.

- By the way, Ida says hi. - Okay.

I spoke to someone in Odense.

This may be a shot in the dark, but...

I tried to come up with faces for names in the diary.

The guy in the middle could be Leif.

Convicted for paedophilia in Odense and Helsing�r.

Right.

- Did she say anything else? - No.

- Ever have doubts... - About what?

When... you and Mille were getting married?

I guess not. She was pregnant and...

Why? Having doubts?

I don't know.

- Weren't you in Stockholm? - Yes. I just flew in.

I'm going back tomorrow.

Why?

I missed my girl.

Could you bugger off so I can do some work?

Yes, sure.

- Can I ask something? - Yes.

Why are you always so rude to me?

- What? - Can't you hear yourself?

If you'd just say

"Nice seeing you, Johnny. I'm busy, so please go."

It would make me so happy.

- Isn't that what I said? - Think about it.

Isn't that what I said? That's what I said.

Long time, huh?

Too long.

Are you hungry?

- You like sushi? - What?

Shall I order some sushi?

You... could wait a bit.

- Midnight snack? - Not for me.

How did it go tonight?

It was fantastic, absolutely fantastic!

It must be the pill you're forcing down my throat.

I won't take it again! I dried.

I didn't know where I was. I tripped over my feet.

- Kirsten, stop it! - I thought I'd bloody die.

Must you drink in front of me?

Antabuse! Try it. It's really good.

If you run out, there are more bottles behind the books!

Staffan?

Staffan...

I felt safer being only three years older than you. Today it's four.

You can't tell.

You look older.

Oh, you're so sweet!

- Happy birthday. - Thanks.

When are you off to Copenhagen?

10 o'clock.

What are you lecturing on?

Paedophilia.

It's probably not a case for Unit One.

It was solved by Euripides in 428 BC.

It's about...

a woman with red hair...

- You idiot! - In her prime...

who falls in love with someone too young for her.

Right.

Even younger than me... All of 14... Hippolytus.

He didn't like making love to an old woman.

- It cost him his life. - Bloody hell!

But it ended happily.

- He was revived by Asclepius. - Who?

The god of medicine. The one with the rod.

With the big, long snake...

that twisted itself around the rod four times and into a knot.

- What was it again? - A snake.

A snake?

PAEDOPHILE KILLED B y COP

- What the hell? - I spoke to the police.

They're obsessed with knowing who The Snake is.

But I was blindfolded. Remember?

But... of course, it could have slid down.

So a policeman killed Klaus?

You are happy to see me!

Come on.

Good morning.

- Could "snake" mean "doctor"? - Happy birthday.

Thanks.

- I can't believe I'm 39. - I think you look great.

- Think so? - Yes. Had a good night?

They're lovely. What do you mean?

- Fischer said you slept up here. - Oh?

When did you talk to him?

This morning. He was here all night looking through reports.

He may have found something.

They found a paper at Klaus's place

which he didn't subscribe to.

Fischer took it to Forensics to check for prints.

We have four sets of prints... They belong to LaCour, Sonny,

Klaus's sister, and her husband the doctor.

THE SNAKE?

- Anything on Ulrik Gregersen? - No.

Seen this?

It's all there. LaCour's amnesia, the prosecutor's investigation.

Trine wrote it.

- Did you talk to her? - Get serious!

It wasn't Ulf either. He's just as furious.

IP, Unit One. Can I talk to Trine?

Find her!

Gaby, did you... Damn it!

What the hell is this? It looks like a chapel!

Where's that bitch?

Good morning, Trine.

Great story! Where did you get it?

Don't start. I don't believe you.

Tell me your source or never get a story from us again.

What's up?

It doesn't fit anywhere.

No cigarettes.

That's obvious.

They were drinking and smoking.

He threw the cigarettes out after I left.

I enter the living room...

- I just ran away. - It's all right.

Maybe we should go and talk to this guy.

- Thomas, you're on leave. - Yes, of course.

Listen... You take the sister, I'll take the man.

But... I can't.

- How long have you known? - Since Sunday.

It was a horrible evening... with Klaus.

He could be vicious when he was drunk.

He told me what he and Ulrik did with those boys.

Ulrik tried to stop him.

But... Klaus threatened to drag him down with him.

We went home.

I couldn't stand him being near me.

He forced me to have sex.

But he couldn't. He never could.

He became violent so I had to break away.

And then...

he started to cry...

like a small child...

when I hit him.

He said he'd... killed his little brother.

Killed his little brother?

Yes. He dropped him while taking him to his mother.

- How old was he? - His brother? Two months.

- No. Ulrik. - Six years old.

She never forgave him.

She never spoke to him again.

Karin, I have to call the police.

On Monday I woke up at 6. He was leaving to buy a paper

to see if there was something about Klaus.

He came back at 8.

Okay. Thanks, Helene.

Ulrik's at a garbage dump west of the city.

Call Fischer. He must be near there.

It's Sonny. I cut him up. He was putting pressure on me.

Ulrik!

No, don't do that.

- Why not? - It's Sonny.

You okay?

Yes.

What's the reason for you being here?

I don't know. I suddenly remembered.

You didn't think to inform Ingrid? It was better to risk your life?

Bloody hell, LaCour!

The right hand must know what the left hand is doing!

Tomorrow you'll go to Horsens...

Those ram-raids.

- So I'm out of Homicide? - You need time to recuperate.

And tell your girlfriend

she's to stay within the Holb�k police district in future.

Thanks for your help.

And we thank you...

for the nice headline in the paper.

- What? - It's with the prosecutor.

- You're joking! I'm retiring. - Joking?

Was it funny seeing yourself on the front page?

We'll talk later. Come on.

What if the redhead had found someone

only four years younger?

Would it have ended happily?

Yes, same here. Bye.

Thanks, Tobias.

Thanks.

It's great.

Like sushi?

Ulrik Gregersen was sentenced to life imprisonment for the murder of Klaus Munk Andersen and Cliff "Sonny" Jensen and for mutilating a corpse.
