Emma!

Both are children of the members of Törnblad. Is that just a coincidence?

I don't know.

This is looking better, Börje.

I think we need to do thorough readings before we do any test detonations.

I wish we had the time.

- Do you recognize this man? - No. Who is he?

You said you believed me! You said you did!

Hold on, Torn.

You killed my son.

- Pull the trigger. - Get out of here! Go to hell!

What will you do about Eva Thörnblad? It's too risky letting her run wild.

Emma!

- She's gone. It's my fault. - Stay there. I'm on my way.

Come on, Eva!

Hold on!

That's great. Let's talk. You're going to be fine. We'll make it.

Pressure, pressure, pressure! We'll make it, Eva!

- Why didn't you take her to a hospital? - There was no time.

- Where did she get this? - Not now. We need to stop the bleeding.

Give me a clean towel. Now. Come on.

Jesus... Quickly. Thank you.

Come on, Eva. Just hold on.

Hey, put your hand here. Put your hand here!

Thank you. Oh, shit. The bullet is still lodged in there. We need to get it out.

Sterilize a pair of forceps or something. Come on! Come on!

Oh, dear... Come on, Eva! Are you getting those forceps?

The demands are the same as before.

Leave the forest alone, and you'll get your children back.

We need to put an end to this.

I've got a hot trail. The longer we keep talking, the colder it gets.

Why did they take Emma? I rubbed her in!

- Are you completely sure? - I did as you said. Word for word.

Then someone helped them.

Are you sure this pungent liquid really works?

Their elaborate sense of smell can't handle it.

It knocks out their entire nervous system.

Well... then who's been helping them?

I wouldn't say "who," but "what."

Not all creatures are as sensitive.

And I've seen them working together before.

Come on. Hold on... Hold on.

Thank you. Hold.

Ready? One... two... three.

Son of a bitch!

There we go...

I can't feel her pulse. What the hell?

- Are you ready? - Yeah.

One... two... three.

Fuck... Fuck.

She's lost a lot of blood. Maybe it's too late.

Not an option. You know what we need to do.

- We can't make that choice for her. - She'll die otherwise. Go on, get it.

Get it!

You're going to make it. Come on... Come on.

Come on.

- After this, there's no turning back. - I know. Go.

Come on, Eva... You can do this.

Eva?

Please. Don't give up.

Save the Silverhöjd forest! Come to our meeting this afternoon!

Jeanette, hold up. Jeanette! Wait...

What do you want from me?

I've got nothing to say. Just leave me alone.

I heard what happened to your daughter. I'm so sorry.

You have to realize you can't go on like this.

Let me know if there's anything I can do.

You don't need to be a part of it.

Come to our meeting this afternoon!

Save the Silverhöjd forest!

The explosives are much too powerful.

No need to worry. My guys know what they're doing.

I don't think you see how serious this is.

One explosive in the wrong place could make everything collapse.

Just let me do some thorough readings before we do anything rash.

I appreciate your commitment, Börje, but there's no time.

Besides, I believe Holmström has done this before.

- Do bears shit in the woods? - See? No need to worry.

If it makes you feel better, you can check where we put the explosives.

There you go. Now you're one of us.

- This is insanity... - That'll be all. Thank you.

You go have a look.

- When will you be ready? - This afternoon.

Good. We'll keep clearing for the next detonation.

We need to keep it going, to find what we're looking for.

Got brandy to go with the coffee?

Wass!

Eva?

Eva?

How are you?

That's good.

It's good you got it out of your system.

Hi...

You scared me!

Nicklas, wait! Where have you been?

Honey? Please, open the door.

Did something happen?

I'm hungry.

Come on, let's go make some breakfast.

You can make the oatmeal.

No, you make it. It tastes better when you make it.

We've talked about this. You need to start cooking for yourself.

Mommy won't always be around.

Where are you going?

What if they come back for me?

They will never come back here again. You hear me?

- Let's go make something nice. - I'll be right there.

I don't get it...

I should be dead.

Did you see the shooter?

You didn't answer my question.

It's not an easy question to answer.

We had to give you something to help you heal.

There's something inside of you. A living thing.

A parasite... "Jordskott." It was the only way to save your life.

But it also means nothing will ever be the same again.

For better... or for worse.

Drink.

I know what you've given me. Don't touch me!

- Why save me if you're going to kill me? - It doesn't need to come to that.

As long as you keep nourishing it.

Josefine...

- Josefine is still at the estate! - Calm down!

Where... on the estate?

Upstairs.

You need to rest. I'll go to the estate. You stay here.

I'll get Josefine.

There, honey. It's okay.

Hi, Torn.

How are you?

Take a look at this.

Isn't that nice? And here you go.

- Oh, wow. - It's from everyone at the precinct.

It comes with a bottle of whisky, but that's for when you're all better.

So I guess I'll have a huge whisky this afternoon.

We almost lost you, Tom.

This is why there should be two cops at all interrogations

and why they're held in interrogation rooms.

- You broke two of our rules. - Yeah...

Do you remember what happened?

I provoked her... I was tired, impatient...

One second she was there, the next she was gone.

She...

- Did we find her? - No.

But we're putting out an APB now.

The National Bureau takes over. Wass will handle your open cases.

- You take the time you need. - I'm fine. I can come back to work.

No one is unaffected by something like this.

You might need to see someone.

I just need to see Esmeralda in an interrogation room.

You're not going back to active duty

before you've passed a physical and a psych evaluation.

- I can't just let this go. - It's not up for debate, Tom.

You'll do as I say.

Get better. And I'll see you soon. Bye.

Hell no.

- What's the matter? - I need my clothes.

Now, please.

I'll be damned.

I wouldn't go any closer if I were you.

He's hungry, and he's not a picky eater.

What... is this thing?

He needs to feed.

We can't lose hope, Thomas. We have to believe we'll get them back home again.

Otherwise I don't know how I'll manage.

I don't understand how Borén can remain so cool.

- Doesn't he realize what he's doing? - No...

While he's got the majority vote, there's nothing we can do.

We can't go to the police.

They'd put us in a padded cell for the rest of our lives.

I feel so damn powerless.

If only there was some other way to stop the detonations.

SAVE THE SILVERHÖJD FOREST

- Do you know what that is? - No.

Do you?

It's an agreement between Thörnblad and the forest.

Where did you find it?

In a secret room at the estate.

Inside a book.

Your forefather Adolf Fredrik's book.

- Did you read it? - No, just a few pages.

This agreement is the reason all of this is happening?

But how?

As you'll realize by now, the Silverhöjd forest contains many secrets.

There lives a people who are almost like us.

350 years ago, Adolf Fredrik Thörnblad signed an agreement with them.

Peace was ensured with his promise to keep the North Woods untouched.

Your father had made an enemy of the forest.

But your father Johan wanted to restore the Thörnblad name to greatness.

He became obsessed with the rumors of all the riches.

I tried to warn him, but he refused to listen to a crazy old lady.

So he started clearing the North Woods?

He did something much worse.

1978, Thörnblad Cellulosa used a lethal toxin on the North Woods.

I was expecting the worst.

But nothing could prepare me for what I saw.

The toxin killed all living things.

Vegetation, animals... and those underground.

How many died?

There is only one of them left.

Through a miracle I found him

before someone else did.

They scoured the forest to get rid of all the evidence.

The agreement had been left in the bundle for someone to find.

So I took care of it, and I took care of him.

He was far gone, but I nursed him back to life.

I brought him up like any other boy.

I named him Muns.

It means "life" in their tongue.

After what my father did, why didn't he just kill him?

He's not out for revenge.

Justice to Muns would mean reinstating the agreement your father broke.

What about Emma?

- Will he hurt her in any way? - My Muns is no monster.

Drink.

You're not helping Josefine by not drinking.

Yes... It's one of the side effects. It gives you more strength.

You'll get used to it.

What poisoned the water in 1978 was the use of illegal chemicals

by Thörnblad to defoliate the forest.

What's going on now is something else entirely.

For us to actually do something, we need proof.

Get out of here!

I've got something important to say.

You all know who I am.

I'm not here to excuse myself or Thörnblad Cellulose.

I'm here for highly personal reasons.

You don't get to make decisions like that.

What was I supposed to do? Just let her die?

Considering the risks, it might have been preferable.

Considering her background, she might be an asset.

She is a Thörnblad, after all. Tied to our cause by blood. OK?

So you want to tell her?

I'll wait until this blows over.

Right now she doesn't need more things to process.

If this becomes a problem, it's your job to make it go away.

Josefine...

- Where is Josefine? - Josefine wasn't up at the estate.

I can't determine whether she left on her own or if she was taken.

- She'd never go off. Muns must have... - You can't leave. Not right now!

If your shooter learns you're alive, what's gonna happen?

You're not strong enough yet.

- I can't just let her hurt her... - No, I understand.

And we will find Josefine. I promise you.

Ylva... I need to get down to the station.

I found a casing at the estate. I need to look into it.

Promise me you'll rest up.

Take care of her.

Move! Let us through. We've got a job to do.

Come on, Annika. It's no use. The law is on our side.

Even if the law is on your side, Åke, it doesn't make it right.

- Go home, you freaking hippies! - Calm down, Lelle.

- Don't make me call the cops. - We're not moving.

Åke, wait!

Jeanette? Thomas?

- Are you with them? - We can't do this.

The consequences will be disastrous. Please, Åke! You have to trust me!

- Does Borén know about this? - No.

I can't just turn around without telling him.

He'll never shut this down. I beg you, Åke. Trust us!

- I'm sorry. - Åke, for Christ's sake!

Save our forest! Save our forest! Save our forest!

Save our forest! Save our forest! Save our forest!

- Look who it is! - Hello, Torn!

- How are you, Tom? Nice to see you. - Hey. I'm fine.

- How are you? - Oh, I'm fine.

Yes, yes.

Hello! Hey!

- What the hell Tom?! - Break it up!

Sit down. Are you OK?

- How are you? - I need to check Esmeralda's interview.

- What? - Esmeralda's interview. I need to...

Viktoria, could you please get me the camcorder from the interview?

Thanks. Come. Hey...

It's cool, I'm... fine.

LINUS: MEET ME AT THE SCHOOL TONIGHT?

ESME: OK

Has anyone seen the tape that was in this camcorder?

Viktoria! Where's the tape? It's empty.

I don't know, Tom. It wasn't in the camcorder.

Nobody has seen the tape that was here?

No one?

It's pretty fucking strange for things to just disappear on their own!

Someone must have taken the tape! Did it grow legs and walk out?

- What the hell is going on around here? - Tom. Let's go.

What the hell was that?

It must be here somewhere.

You're sure there was a tape in the camcorder?

You didn't forget it somewhere?

No, I don't know... I don't know anymore.

- Go home, Tom. - No, I'll be fine.

No, you won't be.

I can't go home and sit on my ass with everything that's going on.

Well, sit on your ass here, then. Go over the case again.

- A desk job? - Call it whatever you want.

Relax! I've got your food right here.

What are you guys doing here?

The neighbors called, Frank. You can't fire your gun here.

Why not? I'm on my property.

Go find the bitch that killed my son instead of harassing me.

Calm down. Put the gun down so we can talk.

What, are you stupid? Don't you fucking tell me to calm down!

Go find her instead, and fucking execute her!

- That's all she deserves! - Frank! Put the gun down now!

What the hell is going on?

Jörgen! I found her. I fucking had her.

But she got away. By the old gravel pit.

She ran north into the woods. Find her, Jörgen. Get her!

- Do it for your brother! - Get down! Calm down!

Do it. Do it.

Josefine.

I don't want them to take me.

Where are you mommy?

I don't want them to take me.

Josefine!

What were you doing outside? You're not ready.

Help me out. Come on.

Why are you occupying the forest?

We look very seriously upon exploitation of protected woodlands.

It could taint our drinking water, which would affect everyone around here.

There are very few virgin forests left.

Especially around here, forests are mostly for logging purposes.

What do you want to tell Thörnblad?

Not to do this, because the consequences would be devastating for everyone.

What will you do in order to succeed?

Occupy this forest until they give in. That's what we're hoping.

What do you think should be done?

I think there should be a thorough study before they do anything

to make sure there are no negative effects.

- You think something bad could happen? - It will happen.

Don't do anything rash, Borén. We need to be able to talk about this.

Out of the way.

You need to call it off, Gustaf. We have no idea...

Stop this nonsense. You'll only make it worse for yourselves and your children.

- Don't you see that? Come here... - Don't you touch me! No, I said!

Gustaf, don't do it. There's still time.

You, I'll talk to later. Remember that.

How could you?!

You'll know when it's time to drink.

If the parasite starts feeding on you, it's bad.

- How bad? - The parasite takes over.

And you stop being human.

- There has to be a way to get rid of it. - Killing one thing will kill the other.

- How many people have had it? - Maybe half a dozen.

How did they get it?

Some through sheer bad luck.

Some were forced. Some got it voluntarily.

- How could someone want it voluntarily? - It heightens your senses.

Makes you aware of things you weren't aware of before.

You'll see what I mean.

Josefine... She's really far gone, isn't she?

I'm going to need those.

- What? - Those.

The cotton balls. I'm going to need them.

You're the one, aren't you? The one the cops are looking for?

Don't believe everything you see on TV.

- Why do you need them? - To find the person whose blood that is.

Esmeralda?

Seek. Seek!

What are you going to do with her'? I want to help you.

We've got a problem. Thörnblad just carried out a detonation in the woods.

If they keep going, Muns won't release the children.

We must be able to stop them.

Jeanette Eriksson and Thomas Leander tried.

They were arrested along with several protesters.

Can we get in touch with Muns?

Fly to Muns with the message.

Hurry. It's urgent.

Go on, Vordur! Fly!

Sit down.

Eva? It's time.

Cheers.

Cheers...

SCHOOL

I told you the school is empty during breaks.

Here you go. I brought you some things.

Thank you.

And this.

- I'm so freaking hungry. - I bet it's gone cold.

I don't care.

This is for you.

Thank you.

Let me start by saying this accident is of course very regrettable.

Any injured parties will naturally be offered due compensation.

We'll take extra care to prevent this from happening going forward.

Two of your board members, Jeanette Eriksson and Thomas Leander

were arrested by police earlier today. Any comments on that?

No parent should ever have to suffer through the hell of losing a child.

No one at Thörnblad, including myself, blames them for their actions.

I only wish they would have chosen a different outlet for their pain.

Linus?

It's not funny!

Cuba, come here!

People like you make me sick.

Hiding in plain sight among us, thinking we can't see you.

But I know what you are, you monster.

I want to know where the children are.

You know who took them.

Don't lie!

It's my job to rid the world of monsters like you.

You attack innocent people... Children!

You shouldn't be here.

Where are the children? Answer me!

What the hell... Stop! Stop!

Cuba?

Cuba?! No! No!

It's okay, Cuba. I've got you.

What the hell are you doing here?! Stop! I said, stop!

What the hell?!

"...a disease..."

"...the likes of which not even the doctors..."

"...had seen before."

"At first, we believed it to be the plague..."
