It's a long ride to the summerhouse,

so let's get some snacks for the trip.

So...

What milkshake flavor do you want?

-Strawberry. -Okay.

-Get one for Elliot, too? -Sure.

I forgot my card and my phone at home.

I'm really sorry.

So you can't pay? You filled the tank and got all this.

I know and I'm sorry, but I don't know what to do.

Can I pay tomorrow?

I'm afraid I can't allow that.

So what do you want me to do?

-I can't pay for it... -I'll pay.

It's fine...

No problem. And this too, please.

Yes.

-Thanks a lot. -No problem.

Have we met before?

At the restaurant.

-The restroom line, right. -Yes.

I remember now.

Give me your number and I'll pay you by phone.

My phone isn't set up for that. This one's on me.

Give me your address.

I'll stop by with the money.

45 Boelsmosevej.

But forget it. It's okay. This one's on me.

-Okay. -Yes.

Thanks.

-Have a nice day. -You too.

THOSE WHO KILL

Søren, photos.

Ready.

Listen up.

The shard from the stolen kayak came from Alice Ejbye's vase,

so we know the perp was in the house.

We believe his plan

was to merely watch Alice watching the video of Markus.

But something went wrong, so he killed her.

He staged the suicide and cleaned up after himself,

but he left the USB drive

to make us believe the video drove her to suicide.

So we're investigating the murders of Ricky Hansen and William Fjeldby,

and now also Alice Ejbye as victims of the same killer.

But the media can't get wind of that nor these.

We are convinced that this is our perp.

It was taken on the night the kayak was stolen.

We can't ID him from this, but we have his height and build.

Yes?

-Why not go public to find witnesses? -No. We don't have to.

We're a step ahead of him now.

Louise, what is his next move?

He loses control with Alice.

Committing an unplanned murder stresses him,

so that could cause him to cool down now.

He won't claim any more victims?

Probably not.

Might he go on the run?

Not unless he thinks we're onto him.

And that's precisely why we aren't publishing these photos.

He's going to act normal now.

He knows that if we suspect him,

his home and surroundings will be searched.

So he's going to get rid of any evidence,

perhaps scatter it around,

in public spaces.

He won't give us more to go on,

so let's look at the previous victims again.

How did he pick them?

Had they met before? Maybe they knew him?

POLICE

Hi, baby. I won't make it home for dinner.

But I promise to be home to tuck the boys in.

Bye.

If I didn't have Bo, I'd never be able to have this job.

How long have you been married?

Seventeen years in June.

We've known each other for so long it's almost embarrassing.

How long?

Since we were 15.

What?

We went to school together.

Impressive.

How about you and...?

David?

Yes, David. Is he coming this weekend?

No.

We...

We split up, so...

Because we've commandeered you?

Not at all. We wanted different things.

I've known that all along, so it's fine.

The USB drive he left at Alice's, have you traced it?

No, but it looks like a logo.

I've seen that pattern before.

SOLD

Doesn't this resemble Kasper Larsen's logo a lot?

Yes.

Could the perp be a client of his?

We need to talk to his sister.

Okay, thanks, Illona. So long.

Hey.

Well, she'll be home in an hour.

Okay. Let's meet there. I need to go pay back some money.

-To whom? -A guy who paid for my gas yesterday.

Okay, see you at Illona's.

Are you having fun?

Was Dad okay with you taking a few days off school?

Good.

Oh, I miss you so.

You must come and visit me soon.

Can't Dad come?

-Sure. -Liar! Dad told me about the divorce.

-You weren't supposed to know yet. -Why not?

-I'll explain when you get here. -I don't want to.

Johannes...

Come see, Johannes!

-Say bye-bye to the fish. -Look!

Dinner's landed.

It sure is big.

MOM

Now watch.

Hi, Leif.

I know it's a chain, but he can still make the decision.

He just wants it cheaper, but he still needs the deck boards.

Summer's coming.

Leif, I'll go see him tomorrow morning.

I have to run now. Bye.

-Hi. -Hi.

I just came by to settle this.

Okay.

You're welcome, but you didn't have to.

It's your money.

-Peter. -Louise.

-Hi. -Hi.

Nice car.

Thanks.

-Well, have a nice day. -You too.

Oh, and thanks.

You're welcome.

I was lucky to get off early today.

Where do you work?

At the drugstore.

What did you want to ask me about?

Do you recognize this?

Sure.

Kasper had them made for his company.

Do you know how many he had made?

No. A lot.

-Who got a USB drive? -His clients.

Why do you ask?

We found this during the investigation.

How long did Kasper have his company?

For about two years.

Have you kept his sales contracts or anything like that?

If there's anything left from the company, it's in here.

I can stop by tomorrow and help you put everything back.

It's fine.

You don't need to.

I'd like to.

I'd like to know more about Kasper.

Why?

I want to understand why the assailant chose him.

Where they might have met.

You probably knew Kasper best.

I'm free tomorrow, so fine.

Louise.

-Come here for a second. -Yes.

Look at this.

His particulars of sale and contracts.

We have the buyers' names.

We'll bring them downtown and see which ones match our profile.

Maybe we're lucky enough to find him among them.

Last name?

-Meyer. -Meyer.

-Is it new? -Yes.

We need more coffee.

-What? -Let's make some coffee.

Yes.

Yes.

Peter, why did you tell him about the divorce?

We agreed to wait...

MOM LOST CALL

POLICE

We've eliminated anyone over 55.

And anyone living abroad or far from Funen.

How far?

A two-hour drive.

So Northern Jutland and Bornholm? How many does that leave?

Twenty-four buyers and sellers may have been gifted a USB drive.

Good. Find out more about them.

Do they have any priors, any arrests?

And we need photos

to eliminate those that don't match the build of the guy on the photo.

Yes. Super.

Okay.

Kasper started his company at 23.

People thought he was crazy. But he did well.

So I heard.

-Did you hear he was a show-off, too? -Was he?

Kasper liked to flaunt his success.

There's nothing wrong in that, is there?

No.

Did he have any conflicts with any of his clients?

No, not as far as I know.

Does the USB drive make you think it might be one of his clients?

Where did you find it?

You can't disclose that.

No.

That's okay.

Maybe I should sell all this.

I've been sleeping on the couch for five years.

Maybe it's time to move back into my bedroom.

I feel like going out.

Wanna come?

Just one glass of wine?

Did you meet with William Fjeldby?

-I met with Fjeldby Development, yes. -But you met the son who got killed.

-Did you tell the police? -Sure.

I don't think I'm a suspect.

I'm sure they're gonna nail him. My cousin is with Odense PD.

-But isn't he a motorcycle cop? -He's still in the know.

He says they hired a great profiler.

Profiler?

Yes, an expert at figuring out how old the killer is,

where he lives and all that.

And all that?

Pull the other one, Leon.

I'm serious.

My cousin says they're breathing down his neck.

-Hi. -Hi.

Yes.

Why don't you pick up? We have to talk about Johannes.

-I gotta go. -Hello! Are you blind or what? Hello!

I'm waiting for that space and then you just back in!

Didn't you see me waiting? You're on your fucking phone!

-I didn't see you. -Fucking Norwegian ape!

-Move your car, man! -You want me to move it?

-Yes. -Move yours first.

What are you...?

-Do you go out a lot? -No.

I used to on weekends. Trying to find the man of my dreams.

I was sure I'd be married

with at least one kid before I turned 30.

I also thought I'd be in publishing and not at a drugstore, so...

-Publishing? -I studied literature.

But when Kasper died,

reading old books just seemed so meaningless.

So I dropped out.

I'm holding Kasper's memorial service tomorrow.

-Oh, where? -In the forest where he was found.

Yes. The first year, several hundred came.

Now... not so many.

Hi. Excuse me.

Don't you work at the drugstore?

Yes.

You found a gift for my mom. She loved it.

Oh, that's great.

I'm Theis.

Hi. Illona. This is Louise.

Hi. Louise.

I'd like to buy you a drink to thank you.

What are you drinking?

Red wine.

Red wine?

Cool.

Hey, you stole my parking space.

Well, not so cocky now, huh?

-Come on. -Come on what?

-Come here, man! -Calm down. Calm down!

Look at me!

Do you know what you are? You're a fucking loser, got it?

Yes.

Get up. Stand up when I'm talking to you.

Let me just get my coat.

-Sure you don't want to come? -I'll pass. I've got some work to do.

I'll be glad to help with the furniture.

It all has to go.

Kasper bought it for his new house. I haven't got room.

Hey, you asked if Kasper was at odds with anyone.

He had some problems with the guy who sold him his own house.

What kind of problems?

He said Kasper cheated him.

He called Kasper several times and threatened him.

Okay. What was his name?

He was an uncouth army guy.

Ørslev, I think.

-Ørslev? -Yes.

Thanks. Have fun, you two.

-See you. -Yes.

-Bye. -Bye.

-Karina, I just talked to Illona. -Yes.

Kasper had a conflict with a guy called Ørslev.

Okay. I'm gonna put you on speakerphone.

Okay, carry on.

Ørslev sold his house to Kasper, but then they fell out.

Ørslev threatened Kasper.

Thanks, Louise.

-You're welcome. See you tomorrow. -Yes.

Check up on Ørslev,

and we'll pay him a visit first thing tomorrow.

Got it.

-Hi. -Hi... again.

You're alone?

Yes... or no. I was with a friend.

But she got a better offer.

-How about you? -Well, I...

I suddenly got a night off. My son's away for the weekend.

-With his mom? -No, a friend.

Johannes's mom and I are divorced.

She's been out of the picture for a couple of years.

Okay.

-Do you live around here? -I work in Odense, yes.

Okay.

-What do you do? -I'm a psychologist.

-Okay, great. -Yes.

Would you like a refill?

Sure.

So I'm rushing down the hill on the sled as fast as I can.

My dad's right behind me.

-Then I reach the one difficult turn. -There's only one?

This one is really tough. I veer off.

I crash into a tree,

and get my fingers stuck between the sled and the tree,

and I break them.

It's a fun story, but it dragged out.

-It was quite long. And not so funny. -Gotta cut to the punch line. Got it.

Do you miss it?

What?

The snow you mean? Because all Norwegians love snow?

-Yes. -Okay.

I do miss the Norwegian winters.

But...

I...

I gotta go.

Okay.

-But I've had a really nice time. -Me too.

Get home safely. Thanks for the wine.

My pleasure.

-Bye. -See you.

Yes.

-Just one more drink. -No, I don't think so.

-I think you should go. -Bye.

What's up, ladies?

Let's party!

So long. Now piss off.

Hey.

Kasper Larsen bought the house four months before he was murdered

from a Niels Ørslev Jensen.

Divorced, no kids.

-When did he get divorced? -Six years ago.

Six months later, he sells his house to Kasper Larsen.

He left the army 11 months ago.

Perhaps he was discharged. That might be a stressor.

-A divorce could be too. -Yes.

We have this.

His build and height match the guy on the CCTV photo.

Physically superior and a profile match.

Karina Hørup, Funen PD.

May we come in?

Sure, come in.

-When were you injured? -Eighteen months ago.

A soldier for 20 years without getting a scratch,

and I get run down.

-I'm sorry to hear that. -Well, that's life.

You sold your house to Kasper Larsen five years ago.

His sister says you had a conflict.

Thanks.

Kasper Larsen was an idiot.

How do you mean?

I sold my house to him.

A month later, he came back demanding a discount.

He said I'd suppressed some defects from him.

It was a load of bullshit.

But he was unscrupulous. That's how he got the house, too.

How?

I intended to sell, but hadn't done anything about it.

Then a buyer approached me.

We agreed to get a realtor to appraise the house.

And that was Kasper Larsen?

Yes. He only came to do the appraisal.

But then he fell for the house

and lied about the other buyer having withdrawn.

The other buyer was furious at being cheated.

-Who was the other buyer? -Masja something.

-Was she buying it alone? -I don't know.

I think I've still got her number.

Death is but a step onwards. Up through the pain, up high.

God has prepared such grandeur for us.

Our spirit and heart will never die.

Those whose eyes so clearly saw

the shape of the soul without any flaw.

The soul that lives on forever once this Earth and the stars wither.

Well...

This is a poem by Hans Christian Andersen

that I first heard when Kasper and I were about six.

It scared me then, but...

now it gives me comfort.

The notion

that our hearts and spirits never die.

Thanks for coming today

and for still wanting to meet to remember Kasper.

Does anyone want to say a few words?

No, well... that's that, then.

Thanks for coming.

You didn't have to come.

I wanted to.

It was lovely.

-How did it go with Theis? -Fine.

Are you going to see him again?

I don't know if I'm allowed.

What do you mean?

To get on with my life

although the killer hasn't been found.

But I can't keep waiting.

This is the last memorial service.

Illona.

Do you need a ride?

Yes, please.

-I'm glad you came. -Of course.

-Want to go for a coffee? -Good idea.

What are you doing?

It's your mom.

Aren't you gonna answer?

No.

Are you going to move to Singapore after the divorce?

-Would you rather live with your dad? -I don't know.

Sometimes he takes off in the middle of the night.

He's gone for hours.

-What? -He's got a girlfriend.

No.

He fucks her while you're asleep.

Hey! I'm gonna get you!

Let's get my dad!

-Hi. -Hi. Nice to see you again.

You too.

Would you like a lift?

When you put on running gear,

it's because you intend to go running.

You don't look so happy about it.

I wasn't counting on rain.

I'd be glad to give you a lift.

Sure?

Okay, great.

Have you lived here long?

Some years now. I bought it with my ex.

Five years, I think.

Did you get your son back?

No, tomorrow.

Johannes...

Well...

What?

Sometimes I'm not sure how he's coping with the divorce.

Look, we don't know each other that well.

Sorry.

I'm used to it.

Okay, then.

You always try to avoid the pitfalls

that your parents fell into, and then...

Then you do precisely that.

Right.

-Your parents got divorced as well? -Yes. When I was 14.

My little brother stayed with our dad,

and I stayed with our mom and her new boyfriend

until I moved out two years later.

-To live with your dad? -No. He lived in America.

I got my own place.

-Do you work with children? -No.

But I do youth group therapy.

Okay. Perfect. Johannes just turned 13.

Bringing up a teenager. Honestly, I haven't got a clue.

Well, there isn't any manual. You just do your best.

If he rolls his eyes at you, you're okay.

Great. He does that all the time.

-Then you can relax. -Okay.

Fine.

Look...

Would you like to come over tonight? I'll cook up a meal.

I... I have other plans. Unfortunately.

Okay.

Great.

-But thanks for the ride. -My pleasure.

You live in Singapore?

Well, thanks anyway. Bye.

Masja Zelinsky intended to buy the house alone.

Okay. So there's no man involved?

No, and she lives abroad.

That was a dead end.

Yes, but we've still got Kasper's clients.

I have a hunch that our guy is one of these 13.

Yes.

He got a USB drive five years ago and forgot where he got it.

-Our luck. -Yes.

-Do they all live in Funen? -All but one.

He lives in Fredericia.

The oldest is 49 and the youngest is 27.

Seven of them have families or partners.

Five live alone.

Find out more.

What car do they drive?

Were they in the country at the time of the murders?

Any recent divorces or firings?

-Surveillance? -Not yet.

We need to eliminate more.

-Hi. -Hi, baby.

Are the boys asleep?

Yes. We had pizza and watched a movie.

Oh, that sounds nice.

-And how about Cecilie? -She's at Nanna's.

She'll be back by 10:00.

Do you want me to go pick her up?

No, it's okay.

-Hi. -Hi.

Is it too late?

No, of course not.

Is this Johannes?

No, the picture came with the frame.

No idea who that kid is.

No, that's seven years and 50 centimeters ago.

Is there anyone who isn't supposed to know you're here?

No. Not any longer.

But it's not so long ago?

Sorry, none of my business.

It's okay.

It was stupid.

Or I was stupid.

I knew that he...

He wanted all this, too. A house and kids and...

I'm not sure I want that.

I didn't want it either.

Not really. Johannes wasn't planned.

But now I can't imagine life without him, of course.

But it wasn't what I had envisioned.

Is that so abnormal?
