Police are looking.
They need someone like you.

For what? The police
don't use psychologists.

They need a forensic profiler.

We don't have profilers
in this country.

You'll be the first.

We're moving you
wherever you're needed.

And you will be
needed everywhere.

Your work's
impressive, Micki.

The detectives don't
seem to like it.

Think I'm interfering.

Well, that's because
we chase ghosts.

This is what you do, isn't
it? You extract information.

My job requires that I
look at what he's done,

and I have to imagine
committing those crimes.

If I don't give myself over to
it completely, it doesn't work.

Alright, alright.

Hold onto yourself
when you go in there.

You're trying to
get under his skin,

but just make sure to
climb back up again.

Since I took this job, it
gets pretty noisy in my head.

It's only going to
get worse.

I know you're under
a lot of pressure.

There is a cost.

What you've described
seems to be a mild panic attack.

Your mind is trying
to tell you something.

That it might not be able
to process everything

that's being thrown at it.

Why did it take you
so long to catch me?

I was tired of killing.

But I could never have
stopped until you stopped me.

He was never going
to stop by himself.

It's down to us.

To me.

It's not your fault.
It is my fault.

There's just so many
dead women, I...

..I have to go deeper.

Excuse me, darling.

Baby!

OK! Ha!

Musa. How's it going?

Hey.

Tobias!

Tobias.

Oh!

Mama?

Mama!

Mama? Mama?

Mama?

Mama?

Mama? Mama?

Hi.

Hello, how are you doing?

Who died?

Our dreams.

Our pride.

Yeah.

Can I get a brandy
and coke, please?

Hey. Oh, hello.

How are you? Good. How are you?

Better than I was. How's Mark?

Oh, he's good.

Well, he's busy,
but aren't we all?

Yeah, no.

No, we're in a really
good place, I think.

Good, I'm glad.
It's good, Micki.

Yeah, you want to smoke? Mmm.

Please.

Thanks.

You look like shit.

Oh...thank you.

Are you getting enough sleep?

Sleep?

Yeah, I've heard
of that, I think.

Well, I have some
good news for you,

but it's nothing that's going
to guarantee you bed rest

in the foreseeable future.

Mm-hm?

Your course has been
approved, you can start.

Really? Yeah.

Funding for 20 officers
to be trained by you,

in profiling at the
Academy in Paarl.

The course starts
in three weeks.

Well, if you've
changed your mind...

No, no, no, no, no, no.

Oh, Brigadier.

I've never seen anybody so happy to
be served with a ton of new work.

Anyway, since you're in
the mood for more work,

here's a new shitstorm.

My favourite kind.

OK, um...I will
get right on this.

Thank you.

News.

I got the funding for my course.

Wow, Micki, that's great,
well done. Thank you.

I'm really hoping
you'll get involved.

I'd like that. And
we've got a new case.

Need to travel. I'm so
done with travelling.

I honestly don't know how you
keep up with where you are.

Must make your head spin.

Car numberplates.

So, I know where I am.

Good system.

So, what's the case?

Yeah, well...

Sharon
Jabavu, cause of death,

as you can see, gunshot
wound to the head.

It was a good shot,
it's accurate.

I read the dockets.

Five of the earlier victims were
shot above the left eyebrow.

Five people shot in the
left side of the chest.

Two in the right. Exactly.

Yeah, and he comes out
of nowhere every time.

It's like trying to catch
a fucking wisp of smoke.

No mutilation or other injuries?

No, not in the main,
but in this victim,

there was evidence
that she was raped.

Most likely post-mortem.

I've sent samples to the
lab for DNA analysis.

And the rapist, same
person as the killer?

We don't know. Interesting.

Well, what could it mean?

I don't know, but any change
in an established pattern

is important to note.

If the killer did rape
her, it could mean

he's taking more risks.

That could mean more mistakes.

Well, it's possible, yeah.

Let's hope so because we
have a town full of people

who are too petrified to go to
sleep because of this bastard.

Yep, this is Phoswa Village.

One of the shootings
happened here.

Everybody's just terrified.

He's killed 16 people
in under a year?

Yep, injured another 10.

You OK?

Ah, it's just my kid.

Waiting for the wife to
ring, give me an update.

Little guy is not doing well.

Can we get the survivors in?

Anyone who was either shot
by him or saw him shoot.

See if there's any
kind of pattern.

Well, we have the
witness statements.

Yeah, but I need to
hear it for myself.

I need to get a
proper sense of him.

OK, I'll fix it up.

This is Rob, hey?

Can you round up the witnesses
for Dr Pistorius to re-interview?

Yep. Yep, that's what I said.

Thanks, cheers.

This is one of our recent scenes
that happened a few weeks ago.

One of three shootings
in one night.

You can go in. No...no-one
else lives here.

The victim lived alone?

Yes. Oupa Luvuno.

He was shot in the chest,
sometime during the night.

Eye witness saw the shooter
eating porridge outside

after the shots were heard.

Took his life...

..then took his dinner.

He was wearing a
balaclava again.

Other witnesses confirmed it.

Where next?

Uh, this way.

So, he's stealing
from his victims.

But those thefts feel
opportunistic, kind of hit-and-run.

Killing is the focus.

What he takes is by the by.

It's been months.

We've made arrests, done ID
parades, but still, just...

..we're nowhere.

Kingsley Nyase was the
night watchman here.

He was shot dead after...

..a break-in during the night,
in the right side of the chest.

Two more a few nights
later, in Phoswa Village.

Isaac Bekwa, shot on the
left side of the chest.

Anonymous caller rang it in.

Rebecca Mbili.

Fezeka Ngalonde.

Bhekani Thomoyi.

Winston Rhabani, I mean...

Sorry, sorry.

Hey!

This is where Sharon
Jabavu was killed.

She ran a shebeen
out of her house.

That's Khanyiso, her daughter.

I tried talking to
her before, but...

..poor girl is very shy
and she's very scared.

That's one of the
survivors, Mlungisi Gwala.

I can talk to him while
you're with Khanyiso.

I think a one-on-one with
her would be better, yeah?

Yeah. Alright?

Yeah.

In the back.

Hi, Khanyiso.

I'm Micki.

I try and understand how and
why people behave as they do.

I'm going to use what I know to try
and find out who shot your mother.

Will you talk to me?

See if you can help me do that?

Yes. OK.

OK, let's come through here.

He didn't walk, but marched.

Confident.

Like...like he owned the place.

Angry.

Very angry.

He didn't speak.

He shot.

Doesn't matter.

You having nightmares?

Every night.

When I do...

Nothing could touch
him, Mlungisi. Mmm.

Nothing.

Not anymore, hey?

No.

That Mlungisi is gone now.

He's gone.

Are you going to catch
the guy who did all this?

And this?

For months now!

Do more than trying!

I'm scared he's going
to come back for me.

I know.

I want to catch him,

to make sure he can't come back

and he can't keep doing this.

We need to stop him.

Do you think you could do
something to help me do that?

What?

Can you show me
exactly what you saw?

Your aunty will be there.

It can help you remember.

Can help you remember things
that help us catch him.

I'll do it.

You are so brave.

I'm scared.

You can be both.

I'd say anyone who's brave
without being scared is a liar.

OK, so, we're calling
him the Saloon Killer.

This isn't like any
case I've worked before.

Yeah, well, it's not like
anyone we've seen either.

He's in and out fast,
appears out of nowhere.

There doesn't seem
to be any pattern.

Yeah. My bloody nerves are shot.

I mean, I keep thinking
about when we're going to get

the next phone call.

How many more bodies are we
going to find on the roadside

before we catch this killer?

Well, killers reveal who they are
through the choices they make -

how they kill, what
they do to the bodies,

the victims they choose.

But this case?

No, he's not giving
anything away.

Now you know why we haven't
gotten anywhere in nine months.

This is where you've been
running the investigation from?

Yeah.

OK, that is not
going to work at all.

Sorry, Rob, I've got those
dockets you asked for.

Oh, thanks, man. Uh,
just put it on my desk.

Tell me about the arrests
you've already made.

First one is Musa Zungu.

Multiple witnesses put him
at the scene of the shooting

in the shebeen.

He's one of the first, but
while he was in custody...

..that happened,
another shooting.

OK, so he can't be
the shebeen shooter?

No, but he could be
connected somehow.

Philani Ludgonga, did you
get anything from that one?

Couple of bits of
things here and there,

but it didn't really
lead anywhere.

Yeah, what was your working
theory on the shooter?

The working theory?

Well, to be honest, we just kind of
chased the evidence as it came in.

You can tell.

Oh, come on, man,
that's not fair.

Sorry, but you said it yourself.

You're nowhere.

There's no thinking,
no system...

Oh, listen to me.

We're not just a bunch
of small-town idiots.

We're underfunded.

Nobody gives a shit.

And these shootings
just keep coming.

What the fuck do
you want us to do?

Shit, it's like a massacre.

Rob?

Rob, he's still alive. Rob?

Hey, get a medic, get
a medic. No, no, no.

Quick, go! His pulse
is fading a bit.

It's there.

Did you see him?

Dammit!

He could be anywhere.

We need all the additional
information we can get.

Agreed. I'm on it.

Don't tell me you've
got another one.

I always call with
the good news, right?

Oh, man. How many?

Six women, one
child. In Empangeni.

Suspects?

Right now, they just want to know
if we think it's the same killer.

Sorry, Micki.

No.

No, it's fine.

You go, keep me posted, and
let me know if you need help.

It's OK. Come through.

Your mother was shot.

She was on the ground.

She was...

..dead.

What else could you see?

Was the room empty?

No.

Was there a man inside?

Yes. OK.

OK, come sit here.

Then what happened, Khanyiso?

This other man came back in.

And did you recognise
this other man?

I think so.

He came here to drink sometimes.

The tall man told him they'd found
someone else he wanted to kill.

I thought he meant me.

Did he shoot anyone?

No, he took me outside.

Told me to get away.

And what did you do?

I stayed outside.

I was scared.

There was a sound
coming from inside.

I didn't know what it was.

They were in there with my mama.

I thought they might
be burying her.

I wanted to see her.

He was grunting on
top of her like a pig.

Oh, my darling.

It is not your fault.

None of it.

Look at me, sweetheart.

You did nothing wrong.

You understand that?

Well...

..seems Musa was
telling the truth.

But he was the one who had
sex with Sharon's body.

So, not a serial
killer, a necrophiliac.

Is there any connection
between him and the shooter?

No, not yet.

The shooter let him go, and
then he hung around and...

..he raped a dead woman.

How do you even function,
this shit every day?

How do you?

Hmm.

I need to get back, start
work on the profile.

Well, if you need anything...

Yeah. Give me a shout.

Oh, such a tune, huh?

Mmm.

Look, when we get back, can you just
get in the rest of the witnesses

and just organise a
room for the interviews?

Yeah.

Hi. Oh.

Hi. Are you working late?

Oh, as usual.

I'm staring at the abyss.

Hoping the darkness will
give me some kind of answer.

OK.

Sorry.

Is that too much?

No. No, no, no.
You can talk to me.

Have you not figured out
the profile yet or...?

No. I can't seem to get
a handle on this one.

It's like a...

..a shadow flitting
between trees.

Like a shadow? Mmm.

Always moving.

Nothing to catch hold of.

How are you going
to move it forward?

Same as usual.

Get under his skin. Just...

..just, this time,
it just feels harder.

Maybe that's your
mind telling you

to stop thinking
like a serial killer.

Hmm. Unfortunately, that
is literally my job.

Well, I wish I could
be more useful,

but my skills don't exactly
extend to this, so...

That's a good thing.

No, I'll figure it out.

I always seem to.

See you in Cape Town.

Night, Mark. Night.

So, you don't know
this guy, hey?

Never met him before?

Hmm?

That's what you reckon.
It's just a coincidence?

Oh, what, so you just go around

raping a lot of dead
women then, hey?

No.

Shit, you know, it's
funny that you say

you don't know the
man who shot everyone.

For some reason, he spared you.

And then, he let you
have a go at her instead.

Look here, Detective...

Well, the evidence
says different.

The evidence says you
raped Sharon Jabavu.

So, why did he let you live?

How would I know?

Listen, man, we
know you know her.

You're going to trial for rape,
and you're going to be convicted.

So, the best shot
you've got is to tell us

who the fucking shooter is.

And then, maybe, they're going
to take it easy on you, OK?

Her daughter says
you let her go.

What, you didn't want to rape
her mother in front of her?

You've got some
sort of ethics now?

I didn't want him to kill her.

Right.

You saved her life.

You did one good thing.

Now do another.

I don't know that guy,
and I've never met him.

Most of the victims...

..were shot above the
left or the right eye.

But some of them
suffered chest wounds.

Thanks.

I see.

Jeez, man, are you alright?

Is your kid keeping you up. Yep.

The kid. This case. It's rough.

Yeah, I get it, man.

Listen, man, I think this guy
is, like, a pretty good shot.

I mean, some of these victims
he was really close to but...

..some were pretty
far away, man.

I think he must be sniping.

Well, Micki thinks he's
had military training.

I've got witness statements
that put him in army clothing.

Balaclava, blue.

There's some
informer interviews.

Ta.

Anything good? Yeah,
a couple of brothers.

Said they've got a load
of guns in their shack.

I can't see this guy
keeping his gun at home.

It's like an
extension of himself.

He's going to keep
it somewhere safe.

It's precious.

Micki, these okes live
in Phoswa Village, OK?

Near the tavern and
near the shebeen.

And we...I mean, we've
got a photograph.

It's of their shack.

It's a pretty rough area. I mean,
it'd be a great place to hide out.

Yeah, but where he stole,
it's practical items.

Batteries, tinned food -

the kind of thing you'd
need to survive off-grid.

I'm sure he's got
somewhere out of town,

somewhere in the forest.

Can we get a team on it, please?

Sure, yeah, we'll...we'll...

..we'll take a look.

But...

..keep your eyes on
the brothers, OK?

I'm on it.

OK, so...

OK.

OK, um...

Well, I think our killer has
been trained as a sniper.

Yeah, he was rejected by his parents
when young, causing distrust.

He suffers from a paranoid
personality disorder.

When he was young, he'd had
hiding places in the forest.

Somewhere where he could have
been the hero of his own dreams.

And then, the army is the
perfect setting for his fantasy.

Yeah.

But, no...but he is discharged
and develops a grudge,

and civilians become
the enemy force.

Yeah.

Yeah, so the only way he can
restore his power is by killing.

That's it, yeah.

This is a man who wants and
needs to command respect.

When he doesn't get it, or when
something triggers his anger,

that's when he goes out
looking for victims.

Maybe there's been
a problem at work,

or maybe he's been
disrespected by a girl.

He's likely to be impotent.

The rifle is a
substitution for his penis,

a phallic extension which
could cause conflict, anger.

Hey. Wait, wait, wait.
How does this help us?

It will.

We need to understand
how he thinks.

So far, your investigation has
been all over the fucking shop.

There is no clear victimology.

He's killed both men and women,
some he's shot at a distance.

Oh, and note the common factor
is his use of a Saloon .22 rifle.

Some he's stolen from,
some he's killed at home,

some in the street.

This all fits with his
attacks being anger-motivated.

Something happens - he reacts.

He lives somewhere
in Phoswa Village.

He's killing on home ground.

Again, he's reacting to anger.

He's not travelling long
distances to find his victims.

I mean, this...I mean,
this sounds totally random.

I mean, how are we supposed
to build a case with this?

Well, it's not entirely random.

He's killing black adult
civilians who he sees as the enemy

and who represent the
parents who rejected him.

We are already
looking in Phoswa.

What more can we do?

I think the forest is an important
place for him in some way.

I'm not sure how.

Maybe he keeps his
weapon buried there,

or maybe he has some sort
of hide-out in the trees,

but I think it's
where he feels safe.

You say we go around and ask
people where do they feel safe?

We need something
concrete we can act on.

He's a good shot.
Trained, most likely.

That's great. I mean, that's
something we can work with, right?

Thank you.

The balaclava, the
uniforms he wears,

he's either in the
army now or has been.

Defence force, SWAPO,
uMkhonto we Sizwe even.

We should be looking at all
members and former members

living in the area,

especially anyone
who's been discharged.

And search the forest, please.

Alright.

You've heard the
doctor. Let's get to it.

I'll be praying you
find him while I'm gone.

Well, I'll do my best.

I hope your course
goes well, Micki.

Oh.

Thank you.

Cheers, Micki. Yeah, cheers.

Let's go.

Just as soon as we get this case
wrapped up, it will, I promise.

There's always another case,
Micki. I can't live like this.
