DR PRESENTS

- PREVIOUSLY - In a few days,

Christensen will take over Absalon Bank.

That's why they shut me up.

That's why they took Olga.

Either we're both finished,

or we stand together when Nova takes us over.

We announce the sale to Nova Bank tomorrow.

Be at the press conference.

- You'll let him continue? - To nail him for something worse.

- But we can stop him now, Mads. -Alf, he's going away for a long time.

Say goodbye to Lina for me. I'll be gone for a while.

- I can't do that. - Bimse, I've killed a girl.

Nicky, you can't run away.

- They're out there again. - I know.

It's been two weeks now.

Hey! What they hell do they want?

How the fuck should I know?

The number is unavailable. Please leave a message.

Dinner is almost ready. Will you set the table, honey?

- Are you listening? - I'm going out for a smoke.

- A cigarette? Now? - Yes.

Come here, sweetie.

Hey!

Hey!

Hey! What the fuck?

What the hell is wrong with you?

Have you lost your mind?

Fucking idiot!

FOLLOW THE MONEY

Why the hell does Christensen want that bank?

Maybe to drain its assets

and let them trickle down to his sub-groups and let Absalon die.

Or move its customers to Nova's crisis department. Who knows?

lt'll be interesting to see the quarterly report in a few weeks.

- Morning! - Morning!

- Breakfast in five. - Henriette?

Yes?

Can we put a wire-tap on Absalon?

The manager, board and Mr Christensen.

- We have to monitor them. - Later, Mads.

- Can we? - Of course.

If we have something concrete.

- That's what the wire-tap is for. - You know it doesn't work that way.

- Henriette! - I can't approve it.

A 16-year-old girl is dead. You are aware of that, aren't you?

I am.

The case went to Homicide.

See you in five.

Mads, give her a chance!

- Why? - She's doing her best.

She can't approve a wire-tap at the drop of a hat.

Shut up, Alf.

Go to your breakfast meeting.

- Where are you going? - I'm going to visit Absalon.

What? Why are you going to Absalon?

To get the mobile phone numbers of the management.

- So we can set up a wire-tap. - Even though your boss refused?

Welcome, everyone.

I am very pleased and somewhat proud

to present to the entire management the first stage of our expansion.

These documents are about Cr�dit Vert.

It's a French bank.

It's strong, progressive and based in Lyon.

In a short time, it will also be Absalon's first international branch.

So they've accepted our offer?

Yes.

Yes, the French are arriving tomorrow to sign the final documents.

I'd also like to thank you, Susanne, for your expert guidance.

And I'd like to thank Nova Bank.

Without you, I doubt that the purchasing process

would have gone as smoothly as it has.

It went surprisingly well.

Absalon Bank can't be taken over anymore.

Absalon Bank is a bank that takes over.

Well done, Simon.

Yes... indeed.

It all looks fine.

In light of your strategies, Cr�dit Vert is a good choice.

They are progressive and up-and-coming, as Simon said.

They'll benefit from the financial support we can give them through Nova.

So...

- Congratulations. - Thanks.

But the purchase isn't final yet.

No, but you usually get what you want, don't you?

You can't go in!

It's a management meeting.

- You two owe me an explanation. - Vibeke...

- Do we have an appointment? - No, but I need to talk to you.

I want to know what's going on.

Please sit down.

When did I turn into a bad customer?

- Who says so? - Don't play innocent.

This just arrived from the bank, so you must know something about it.

It's just too far out.

You'll be transferred to Nova's crisis department within a fortnight.

Charges will be trebled, and the interest rate rises by 14%.

That's insane!

What the hell?

I'll go bankrupt.

No, you won't.

Listen, she works here.

She fucking works here, Alf.

- Who works where? - Claudia Moreno.

She works at Absalon Bank.

- In which department? - Well...

I would know that if I had had the wire-tap.

- Who is she working with? - With Christensen.

- She's working with Christensen. - With Christensen?

It's all happening right under our noses, Alf.

We'll talk to Henriette about it.

Yeah... you can forget that.

Mads? Mads?

- Claudia here. - Hi, it's Morten.

Your parole officer.

Fuck! Sorry, I forgot our meeting today.

It's the third meeting you've missed in two months.

- Your parole could be revoked. - Yes.

You have to comply with our rules.

Give me an appointment, and I'll be there.

- The day after tomorrow at 9am. - Yes, I'll be there.

Bye.

- Mum! - Hi, Bertram.

Hi, sweetie.

I was afraid you wouldn't be home, but you are.

Yes, but what are you doing here? Today isn't Friday.

- Surprised? - I'll say. Why didn't you call?

Sorry about that. Bertram wanted to surprise you.

OK. What are you doing here?

I'm here for work.

- Mum? - Yes?

- Can I play PlayStation? - Sure.

Come here.

Give me a hug.

Later, I want to hear all about school, OK?

- Come in! - Thanks. Thanks.

- So, are you working here now? - Yes.

I'm the legal consultant for a French bank

that is being purchased by a Danish one.

Cr�dit Vert.

- You're kidding! - No.

I was surprised to see who the buyer was.

Yes.

Are you sure you want to stay at a hotel?

You can sleep next to him.

- Are you sure? - Absolutely.

It would be more comfortable than the business hotel room I booked.

He fell asleep right away.

He couldn't sleep last night.

He misses you terribly.

Right.

We might not live in Paris forever.

Are you both thinking of coming home?

Yes, well...

Yes, it's possible.

It's not definite yet, but... yes.

- It would be fantastic if you did. - Yeah?

How about Simone? Is she ready to move back to Denmark?

I'm not sure that Simone is coming.

Are you splitting up?

Or what?

Hell if I know.

Has Amanda accepted that we're taking over Cr�dit Vert?

Yes, she has.

And I'm focusing on seeing this through to the end.

- It mustn't go wrong. - No, we'll get it done. Don't worry.

Your shareholders must be overjoyed about you being at the helm.

You're the perfect manager for your bank.

Thank you.

I imagine that your parents would be proud of you.

- Cheers. - Cheers.

The number is un...

Hey! What the hell is going on?

- What's that? - Two guys are blocking the entrance.

They won't move.

Hey!

Move it, or I'll call the police.

Fine.

This is Nicky Rasmussen.

I'd like to report a black Ford with plate number...

Right. Give me the keys.

- Will it be ready by Wednesday? - Yes, no problem.

Now what?

Do you think they'll leave us alone?

I don't know, Bimse.

Fucking Swede, man!

The people I talked to said

that Claudia Moreno has worked closely with Absalon's directors.

She opposed the takeover.

She could easily have colluded with Christensen

and worked against Absalon.

Yes, but doesn't that sound like a conspiracy theory, Mads?

You can't disprove it.

We have no idea what Claudia and Christensen talk about.

I knew it! We should have kept tabs on her.

Jon!

- Jon! - Mads?

What are you doing here?

What can I tell you? I'm taking a walk.

- Yeah, right. - Jon...

I need your help.

Can't it wait? I have parental leave. My kid is sick.

- Just one question. - Yeah?

Do you have any active wire-taps at the moment?

You're kidding.

I haven't seen you in 18 months, and that's what you ask me?

I know, Jon, but...

- Can you hold him? - Sure.

Ask the judge to hurry up.

- Yeah. - We can't do an illegal wire-tap.

Preben runs a tight ship after you fucked up all the time.

- Right. - But it's nice to see you again.

- Have you heard of the Olga case? - Yes.

She was found on a beach.

- What about it? - Jon, I know who's behind it.

- Well, I don't want to know. - Nova Bank. Knud Christensen.

- Holy shit! - It sounds crazy, but it's true.

And you know that a lot of evidence can disappear before we get a warrant.

I have a hot lead, Jon. I have to follow it.

Jesus Christ, Mads.

I promise never to ask you again.

- Liar. - Look.

Claudia Moreno.

OK. Give me a couple of hours.

- Great, Jon. Thanks. - Bye.

One sixth of our customers are being transferred to the crisis department

where they'll drown in charges and interest.

When were you going to tell me?

- That's not why they are transferred. - Then why?

Because they need the help of experts to get back on track.

Nova has those experts.

Simon, I've studied the statistics.

They show that one out of three companies transferred

go bankrupt within six months.

They obviously can't work miracles, Claudia.

I don't understand how could you do that without me.

It's not hard to understand. It's not your job anymore.

- But it would be prudent practise to... - No, prudent practise

is to tend to the interests of our business and our shareholders.

- I have a meeting to prepare. - You're ruining what we've built.

No, we're making it bigger. You two are impossible!

- We have to do something. - What can we do?

They're within their legal rights.

Why make it bigger if it's all shit?

How about...

How about the French bank? Could they help us?

Why would they? It has nothing to do with them.

The point of transferring Absalon's customers

to Nova's crisis department

must be to streamline Absalon before Cr�dit Vert is bought,

so it looks all neat and tidy.

Cr�dit Vert has high ideals.

They're loyal to their customers.

If they were to hear that Absalon wipes out its customers,

they might dig their heels in.

So we just call and tell them?

Or...

You want me to tell the manager of Cr�dit Vert to stop the sale?

No, just tell her what's going on at Absalon and leave it up to her.

What would be the point?

Cr�dit Vert could refuse to sell

as long as Nova puts Absalon's customers in their crisis department.

- That could save Absalon's customers. - Yes, but that's not my job.

No, and I know it's a big favour to ask of you.

My job is make the takeover go as smoothly as possible.

So it wouldn't be in my interest to speak against it.

I know. It's just...

- Here you go. - Thank you.

Right.

I'll just talk to them myself.

Claudia...

If this deal doesn't go through, I'm finished.

- You're finished? - Yes.

It can't go wrong. Don't you see?

No, I don't see at all. "Go wrong"? What are you talking about?

You see...

I had an idea.

I wanted to open a bureau that could facilitate cooperation

between French and Danish companies.

I oversold the idea to a law firm in Paris.

And they invested in it.

They invested heavily in it.

And you're liable for it?

- Yes. - For Christ's sake, Steen!

What were you thinking?

We have to let this deal go through, you know?

Milas!

Don't go too far away.

You're overprotective.

He could run out in the road.

The road is two kilometres away in that direction.

Those little legs will hardly take him further than the trees.

I'm glad you could leave work early.

I needed to get away.

If the weather improves, we could go on a picnic.

A picnic?

Yeah, a picnic. Not a good idea?

It sounds wonderful.

You haven't suggested something like that for ages.

I just felt like it.

Where's Milas?

I can't see him.

- Milas? - Relax. He's over here.

- Milas! - I'll go this way.

- He's... Milas? - Milas?

Milas!

Sweetie?

Milas!

Milas, where are you?

Milas!

Milas!

Milas!

Milas!

Milas!

Milas!

Milas!

Milas... For Christ's sake!

Hi, sweetie! Oh!

Don't run so fast, you little devil.

Thanks for finding him.

I didn't find him.

It was...

He's not here anymore.

- "He"? - Yes.

Sweetie.

What are you eating?

What's this?

Hey!

Honey!

I'm so glad you found him.

Hi, sweetie.

Don't run so far away.

Lina, we have to go home now.

- What? - Come. Now!

- Thank you. - What's going on?

What's up?

They got hold of Milas.

Of Milas?

They didn't harm him.

Where is he now?

I drove him and Lina to Lina's sister's. We have to do something.

- What the fuck do they want? - I don't know.

I called the Swede a thousand times. He doesn't answer.

I'd do anything to make this stop, but I can't if I can't get hold of him.

- No. How about going to his house? - I've been there. He's gone.

I will find him.

And what will you do when you do?

I don't know.

Do you still have the pistol?

Are you going to work all night?

No, I hope not.

Aren't you coming to bed?

Yes.

Is Alf coming to dinner tomorrow?

I didn't write it down. Is it tomorrow?

- Mads? - Yes, I think so.

Is he allergic to anything?

- What? - Is Alf allergic to anything?

He's a vegetarian.

Holy shit! She's making a call.

Just a minute.

-Amanda here. - Hi, it's Claudia.

- I'll be late tomorrow. - OK.

I have a meeting with my parole officer.

- Fine. See you, Claudia. - Bye.

Hello. Mads Justesen.

- I'm from the fraud squad. - The fraud squad?

Have you had meetings with Claudia Moreno?

Yes. She's just left.

Can you tell me what were the meetings about?

Yes, if you can tell me why do you need to know.

I'm afraid I can't say.

Then I can't help you. It's confidential.

Excuse me.

Are you protecting her?

Claudia Moreno was convicted of fraud.

She's working with the man she committed fraud with.

That isn't a crime.

No, but you're protecting a convict.

If she commits fraud again, which I strongly suspect,

I'll have to mention your name to my boss. Have a good one.

What do you want to know?

If she's in any way violated the conditions of her parole.

Well,

she missed a few meetings.

- She failed to come to meetings? - Yes.

- Hi. - Hi.

I talked to Steen yesterday.

He won't do it.

- He won't? - No.

He's afraid the deal will fall through.

We don't want it to fall through.

They just have to look out for our customers.

- Did you explain that to him? - Yes, but he refuses.

It will benefit everyone.

He won't budge.

Maybe we should just bypass Steen.

C�lestine Allard is here now.

Cr�dit Vert's director?

We'll never get her alone in a room. Simon wouldn't risk it.

You speak French, right?

C�lestine Allard?

Yes.

Do you know who you are selling your bank to?

Who are you?

Claudia Moreno.

Legal consultant to Amanda Absalonsen.

Amanda? Is she here?

I'm here on her behalf.

In the ladies' room?

You know Absalon.

Yes, we have just agreed to be under their wing.

What if I told you that Absalon isn't as it appears?

One sixth of our customers are being moved to a department

that will drown them in exorbitant charges and interest.

Why?

Because the bank doesn't focus on the good of the customer.

Only on that of the shareholders.

What can I say?

- Some banks are like that. - But you aren't.

I've read about you.

I know the history of your bank. You have high principles.

What do you want me to do?

Slow down the sale.

Don't annul it, but get Absalon to reconsider those things.

No way. There is too much money at stake.

Much too much.

I can't run that risk.

And your principles?

You'll have to excuse me.

Claudia...

What do you want?

Can I have a word?

No, I'm not really in the mood.

I think you are.

I talked to your parole officer.

He said you have trouble honouring the obligations of your parole.

I don't know what you're on about. I don't have time for this.

You have a choice.

Either go back to prison and serve the rest of your time

or come with me to the fraud squad right now.

What the hell do you want?

The choice is simple. What's it to be?

So you want us to believe

that you're not working for your old boss, Christensen?

Like I said, I'm working against him.

I'd like to help, but I don't have access to him or Nova Bank.

Right.

- Your bank is purchasing Cr�dit Vert. - Yes.

Do you know the details of the purchase?

It's causing problems for some customers.

- Can you get them or not? - Get what?

- The details of the purchase. - I don't know. Why?

Wouldn't it be easier if I called the prison service?

Mads...

Do you have any idea what it cost me to serve 18 months?

Huh?

And yet you think I'm doing the same thing now that I've been released,

while all eyes are on me. How stupid do you think I am?

I don't think you're dumb. I think you're greedy.

I'll get you the contracts,

and then you leave me alone. You got that?

Hi.

What's up?

Are you OK?

What's going on? Nicky?

Come with me. Now!

Take the passenger side.

- Lie still. - Nicky!

Hey!

Fuck it!

All right.

Where is he?

Where is who?

The Swede.

Where is the Swede?

I don't know which fucking Swede you're talking about.

- I don't know any Swedes. - Do it.

Where is the Swede?

I don't know a damn thing about it.

For fuck's sake, I know don't a damn thing.

Again.

Do it.

What if he doesn't know where he is?

We won't stop until you tell us where he is.

You could die. Understand?

Do you?

I don't know a damn thing.

I don't know a damn thing.

Really?

Don't you?

Nicky!

Nicky, that's enough! Nicky!

Nicky... Nicky!

It fell off. I'll put it back on.

Stop!

I'm meeting him. I'm meeting him.

I'm meeting him. I'll tell you where.

I'll tell you where.

- That was delicious, Kristina. - Thank you.

It was just a curry.

I didn't know what else to make without meat.

Without meat?

- You're a vegetarian, aren't you? - No, I'm not.

Not at all.

- Did you tell her I was? - What?

- Did you tell her I was? - No, I didn't. Did I?

- Honestly! - It must be a misunderstanding.

I'm glad you know me so well, Mads.

It's too bad the kids aren't here.

We hardly see them anymore.

Esther loves her continuation school.

Albert is always at football practise or at a friend's.

You'll have to make do with us.

Then it's good there's a baby on the way.

How about some dessert?

I love meat, but this was delicious, Kristina.

And you both look happy.

I'll take the documents now,

and we'll get the rest translated into French tomorrow.

Good.

Talk to you later. Bye.

You know where your father is, don't you?

Show me.

- Hi. - Hi.

- Is he asleep? - Yes.

Good.

What the hell are you thinking?

- What do you mean? - I asked you not to stop the deal.

I begged you not to, and you went behind my back.

- Steen, it's my job. - I know that, but this is about me.

I'm standing on the edge, and you're pushing me over it.

- I don't want to push you... - Listen to me.

I'll spend the night at a hotel.

- We can talk tomorrow. - Come on!

No, I don't want to do this.

- Come in. - Hi.

I'm sorry, but I can't get hold of the contracts.

And you want us to believe you?

What do you want me to do? I tried. I don't have access to them.

You're covering for Christensen.

Listen, Claudia.

We know a thing or two.

Nova Bank's crisis department is a swindle.

It's a scam that Christensen set up to drive companies into bankruptcy.

He uses straw men to buy them dirt cheap.

It's a money machine. A wheel of death.

You're kidding!

No, it's very true.

We know he's behind it, but we can't prove it.

We need to know if he'll do the same thing to Absalon's customers.

Are you going to let him drive our customers into the ground?

No, we need to get proof.

We can only follow the money. That's our only option.

That's why we need your help.

That's the way it is.

You'll be hearing from us.

Thanks for coming.

Excuse me...

Would you mind telling me what's going on right now?

You passed on confidential information about our investigation

to someone who worked with the people who killed Olga.

What if she's the one who can help us nail them?

- Can't you see that she's lying? - I can see that you believe it.

I have a different opinion.

A-ha!

What if you're wrong, Alf?

Yes, what if I am?

Are you talking to the police?

Yes.

They don't give me any choice.

OK.

I want what you want.

And so do the police. They want to end it.

- The wheel of death? - Yes.

- What's their plan? - They're forcing me to cooperate.

They think I work for Knud Christensen.

Why don't you?

What do you mean?

Why not work for Knud Christensen?

Christensen here.

It's Claudia Moreno.

I'd like to meet as soon as possible.

I see. Yes.

I'm having lunch in two hours.

70 Amager Boulevard.

I'll give you 20 minutes of my time.

Alf!

Claudia Moreno is meeting Knud Christensen in two hours.

Let's bug that meeting.

On what grounds?

What do you mean? They worked together at Energreen.

He just bought the bank that Claudia happens to work at.

They're meeting in secret.

I know we have to keep an eye on them.

We need to know what they talk about.

How would you manage that?

You have to write a report first. I need a warrant from a judge,

and then we need to install a microphone.

We'll send a plain-clothes officer in with a directional mike.

- OK. Go. I'll push for a judge. - That's great, Henriette.

What are you doing here?

Leave me and my family alone, OK?

It ends now.

Come here.

Hey!

You found me. Well done.

I had great expectations of you, Nicky.

Plans. Perhaps they were too big.

And now I don't know what to do with you anymore.

What do you think I should do?

You should leave me and my family alone.

OK. Yes.

Perhaps I should.

But I don't know if I can, Nicky.

I'm tired.

I'm old, Nicky.

And all this...

Cops and robbers...

I have no taste for it anymore.

I have no taste for it anymore!

A new man should have the job. Understand?

I had hoped it would be you.

You have a fucking funny way of showing it.

Yes, it is damn funny.

But when you come here in this way, and I see you...

You have what it takes, Nicky.

Think about it!

This is your chance. Don't you see?

This is your big chance to get everything you've ever dreamed of.

To get the respect you're entitled to, don't you see?

But naturally, you can just kill me.

Put an end to it all.

Go back to your little life, your little garage.

You can spend the rest of your life serving other people.

And take orders like a pathetic dog.

What do you think your son will say to that?

Will your son be proud of his father?

Nicky...

Come on now.

You know that what I'm saying is the truth.

I know you, Nicky.

I know you.

Nicky...

Nicky...

Come on now.

I'm sorry. I was hungry, so I couldn't wait.

It's fine. I didn't come for the food.

What can I do for you?

The police are onto the manoeuvres you started

in Nova's crisis department.

Excuse me?

Don't say that you know nothing about it.

I have information you can use at your discretion.

The police know what you're doing.

I have a source.

Why haven't they acted on it?

They're waiting.

They don't have enough proof.

But if I were you,

I'd close down the crisis department immediately.

So they can't find anything.

I knew it, man. Jesus Christ!

- What do you get out of this? - Two things.

We have to put the past behind us, now that we'll be in the same building.

And I want to protect Absalon's customers

who were being transferred to your crisis department.

It would be stupid to do that now, wouldn't it?

So you're not doing this for my sake alone?

No, I'm not.

You're full of surprises.

Thank you.

I mean it.

Right.

Enjoy your meal.

Thanks.

I told you, didn't I?

I told you.

What the hell is wrong with you?

You gave her a chance to stab us in the back, and she did.

OK... It's all gone down shit creek.

- Everything we need is gone, man! - Mads...

- We have nothing. - I don't know...

No, you don't know.

You don't know shit because you're terrified of doing something wrong.

You'll end up being incapable of action.

You're so careful.

You believe in the rules and that you can trust criminals.

You're said to be brilliant, but sometimes it's as if...

as if you're dumber than a bag of hammers.

OK.

You're angry. That's fine, Mads.

I understand.

But you know what?

- Don't get on your high horse. - What I said is true.

No way, man!

That's what you think.

You're so full of it and how you think the world works.

That's the problem.

You forget everyone else.

I'm so fucking tired of cleaning up all your shit all the time!

It's Moreno.

It's Claudia.

What do you want?

I just met with Christensen.

- OK. - I had to give him something,

so I said that you know about the crisis department.

Why are you telling us this?

Because you now have a trusted person close to Christensen.

I want to take him down, so I'll find something for you.

I know this isn't how you'd do it, but this is better.

So... talk to you later, Mads.

- That was unexpected, wasn't it? - Yes.

Oh, sorry. I've taken your seat.

Nicky...

Are you sure about this?

- Yes. - OK.
