I was thinking about those old cases.

Foster homes and... the children who were sent there.

Can we do something about it?

It depends on what kind of violence we’re talking about.

It’s...

sexual violence.

The crimes were committed at Gullsondum. The foster home run by Anita’s grandmother.

- Were there just girls? - Yes, Mum only wanted girls.

Are you coming tomorrow evening

We’re going to the black beach to use a Ouija board.

Isn’t that something they do in horror movies?

Yes. And here.

I’m looking for a place. I won’t stay long.

You don’t need to search. You’ll get my house.

This is more than we discussed. I can’t put that much money into this.

I think I’ve found a way out of your financial troubles.

I don’t have any financial troubles. I just don’t want to sell the house.

I want a real hug. Come on.

Her mental health fluctuates.

She’s been very sick, tried to take her own life last year.

Grandma has disappeared. She’s done this before.

She’s been like this all day.

I walked around the house like 70 times,

I changed her diaper, there’s nothing wrong.

Anita!

- Hi. - Where are you?

At home.

What happened?

I just went out for a bit. I didn’t go far.

You just left her?

Yes...

Why didn’t you pick up the phone?

I don’t know. I just... It was only a second.

This is not okay, it’s not...

Yes, I know. Should I come and get her?

No, don’t come.

I’ll come right away.

No, don’t come here. I’ll come, just wait.

Okay...

- I’ll call you. I gotta go. - Okay, bye.

Tomas.

Tomas...

We've been looking for her all night.

- What? - We’ve been looking for her all night.

She said she was going her friend’s but she didn’t...

What’s the friend’s name?

- Ragnheidur, at Brakandi. - Thanks.

What’s going on?

She’s asleep. I don’t know where to start.

- Where’s Anita? - She had to rest.

I just...

Erla was crying, we went for a drive, I got the call and here I am.

Okay. What are we talking about?

It’s Tomas’ grandma. The one who came last night.

- And who is he? - Gabriel, her husband.

A truck driver found her. I’ve spoken to him. I’ll put her in the car.

I’ll talk to Tomas but this is ridiculous.

I know. I totally agree.

Tomas.

Tomas.

My heartfelt condolences, buddy.

Go to Frida. I’ll take over.

I think it’s best you go home, Tomas.

Let’s get you up. There we go, buddy.

- We have to get a tow truck... - We got this. Thanks.

You and Gabriel should go back to your place.

Why there?

You know how this works.

- It’s just a car crash. - You know the procedure.

- We have to look at every angle. - What?

Tomas. Go to your place.

- Please. - Go on.

I’ll call you. Okay?

What was that about?

- Lacerations on the neck. - What?

There are lacerations on her neck.

We need forensics from Reykjavik, the car must go to the station.

- Okay. What do I tell Tomas? - Nothing.

Let’s see what forensics say, get her to Reykjavik.

We have to talk to Gabriel.

Make the calls.

I’m sorry.

I’m sorry.

Don’t be sorry.

Are you angry?

No. Just tell me what happened.

Anita, what happened?

We have to discuss it. You have to tell me.

I was right outside.

I heard her the whole time.

I saw you come...

It was only for a moment.

All right.

Talk to me.

Talk to me, just tell me...

If you feel this way, if this happens again...

- It won’t. - Don’t leave. You just have to call me.

Yes. Okay.

Talk to me. Tell me.

- Yeah. - I’m here.

- I will. - Promise?

Yes. I promise.

Okay.

We’re done here?

- Yes. Thank you. - No problem at all.

You’ve got the county, right?

- What? - A county licence.

Yes, sure.

Okay. We might need some help.

We might call you. Is that okay?

Absolutely.

My brother can guard the beach, no problem.

- Okay. I’ll be in touch. - Yes.

- Hi. - Where are you?

I just stopped at Helena’s place.

Wait there until they come. They’ll be there soon.

No problem.

I’ll call Bardur, he has a county license.

Instead of Tomas?

Yes. He needs a break while we’re investigating the case.

He's too involved. Rules are rules.

I’ll hear from you later.

- Yes. - Bye.

Is Erla sleeping?

- Yes, she just fell asleep. - Yeah?

Everything going well?

Yep.

So...

Salomon’s estate has been finalised.

And, like we discussed, he named you as his sole beneficiary.

You have a right to a third of his estate.

I’ve told you, I don’t want his money.

Don’t make any drastic decisions, my dear.

It’s quite a lot of money.

Enough to buy your uncle out of your grandma’s.

And more.

And if I refuse... can’t the victims get it?

We found a cousin of Salomon’s mother.

His name is also Salomon.

He’ll get two thirds.

And if you refuse, trust me, he’ll take it all.

Think about it before you make a decision.

Then you can say yes or no.

Okay?

“It was self-defence. Nothing else.”

- Hi. - Hi.

- How are you? - I’m good.

- Are you sure? - Yeah, I’m fine.

All right. This is her home?

Yep, that’s it.

And the car is at the station?

Yes, the car’s at the station.

And they took Helena... took the body... to Reykjavik.

, my love.

Who’s this?

Who’s this?

Is it Erla?

Yes, little mouse.

Forensic experts have arrived to look at the car

so it shouldn’t be much longer.

But why can’t I go home?

It’s procedure.

Especially as she’s tried to end her life before.

Do you think she drove off the road on purpose?

We don’t know.

We’re still investigating, we’ll know more soon.

I understand.

You can go home once we’ve checked everything.

I know it’s difficult but we have to be thorough.

- Anita? Hi, I’m Jonna. - Oh, of course, hi.

Hi, I’m Anita.

Can I?

Sure.

All right, okay, I’ll change real quick.

She’s not always like this.

Is she calming down?

Thanks, we’ll let you know when you can go home.

We recommend this grief pamphlet but feel free to call.

- See you. - Hang on, Tomas. Take one.

I think it’s best you stay with your grandfather today.

Take as much time off as you need. We’ll be fine.

Okay.

- I’ll call you if there’s anything. - See you tomorrow.

I’m in love with your curls. Are they natural?

Really? But like, were you born with curls?

Both my parents have red hair but I have dark hair and curls.

- I just met Erla for the first time. - Your stepsister?

- Disa, my half-sister. - Yeah, half.

Same shit. You’re going to babysit her?

- Yeah. - I could never... babysit.

- Do you have to change her diapers?

- Are you excited? - Yeah.

- Hi. - Hi.

How did it go?

Just a normal home.

Painkillers and psychiatric drugs in her name, nothing else.

Makes sense. She had a history of mental health problems.

It’d be great if you could finish the car today.

- Yeah. - There was one room...

- Okay. - It was a bit... dark.

A master bedroom, but not their room.

It was untouched, like nobody had been in there for years.

There was a wedding picture of her and Tomas’ grandfather.

It was uncomfortable. Just kind of eerie.

Do you want me to call a medium? Ghostbusters? An ice-cream truck?

Is the body on Bogi’s table?

Yes, it’s a priority.

How did it go with Gabriel?

Well, but we have to check out this Ragnheidur.

He says Helena was visiting her two nights in a row.

Two nights ago she came to me.

She could’ve gone there afterwards, but this Ragnheidur says no one came.

- According to Gabriel? - Yes, he said Ragnheidur said... yeah.

- All right. I’ll speak with Ragnheidur. - Okay.

When did you last see her?

Here at home.

And how was she?

Very good. Upbeat.

I don’t get why it’s being investigated as a suicide.

Let me. Come here my little darling.

But you don’t summon forensics if that’s the case.

There must be something else.

Yes. It’s very strange.

It has to be an accident. Who’d kill themselves this way

I don’t know anything.

But I wanted to discuss something else.

Gusti has asked Bardur and I to fill in for you while you’re...

No, you don’t have to. I’ll be there.

Tomas, it’s not...

It’s better for me as well.

I’ve been pressuring him to let me get back to work.

You have to rest and I have to get out of the house.

It’s not easy being with a demanding child all day.

Who will take care of Erla?

- Gusti’s daughter will. - He has another daughter?

Yes. And a son.

Right.

Yeah.

You’ll talk to Frida for me?

Of course. I’ll let you know if I hear anything.

If you were a guy you’d be such a pervert.

I wasn’t...

I'm kidding. Relax. I want people to notice.

- Notice what? - My breasts.

Breasts are so basic. You need a personality to get attention.

And I’ve got a great personality.

Just what a person with no personality would say.

Because you’re such a charmer, pizza guy?

- Coming tonight? - Yes.

Okay. I’ll pick you up at nine at Di'sa’s.

You don’t need to listen to Baldvin, you know.

You’ve got great breasts and a great personality as well.

Yeah, I know.

The seat’s in a very unusual position.

Nothing is normal in this damn town.

Poor Gusti, winding up here.

- Do you pity him? - Yes.

I don’t at all.

Well, he broke rule number one.

Don’t fuck your colleagues.

And somehow everyone still does.

I’m going to take a shower and then have a drink.

Sounds good.

She hanged herself. Cause of death is asphyxiation.

At midnight. I just spoke with Bogi.

Right. So... I’m going to the bar.

I wanted to discuss Helena with you.

Yes, what about her?

She was found dead this morning.

In her car.

It was just west of here.

My condolences.

What happened?

She seems to have lost control of her car.

She visited you the other night, right?

No.

No, I haven’t seen her since last week.

Oh? Why did you meet last week?

Nothing special, she just dropped by for coffee.

How... Sorry, is it okay if I ask you more questions?

Okay. What kind of state was she in?

Just... normal.

She was always worried.

Was she worried about something specific?

No.

She was going on a long vacation with Gabriel.

She was anxious about the flight, so...

Look...

You were both at Gullsondum, right? The foster home.

Yes.

Okay.

Can you tell me about it?

Why?

Because I got a tip...

anonymous...

that things weren’t okay at the home and...

I wondered if you could tell me about it.

Does this have anything to do with Helena’s death?

I don’t know.

Honestly, I don’t know. I just thought...

you could tell me how you were treated.

Or how you felt there.

I have to ask you to go now.

I just need to be alone.

Yes.

I’m sorry that I upset you.

But I want to be able to contact you again.

I think we should finish this conversation.

Yes. But I have to ask you to go now.

Thank you, Ragnheidur.

- Hello. - Audur?

Is this Ragnheidur? What's up sweetie?

Helena is dead.

What? What do you mean?

- Ragnheidur? - Can you come?

Hello?

Hi.

Hi, sweetheart.

- You look great. - Thanks.

I’ll take her for a minute? Can I take her?

Do you want to go to Mummy Frida?

Einar and Eva called. I’m going to meet them at the bar.

Okay, great. I love it.

Okay.

I really love it but I haven’t slept for 48 hours.

Maybe you can wake me before...

No, no, I already spoke to Gusti. He’ll take her overnight.

Okay. Great. Great!

I’ll finish getting ready and then I’ll take her, okay?

- And hello. - Hi. Amazing.

- Jonna will come tomorrow. - Right.

And I’m coming to work this week.

- What? - Gusti asked me to work with Bardur.

Okay, great.

Did you book a psychologist’s appointment?

No, I’m working on it.

Okay. Jonna is coming so you can focus on yourself.

Yes, I know.

I am doing something for myself.

Erla’s dad is going to take her.

And I’m getting ready to go out and meet people.

I love you.

Wake me when you come home?

I love you too.

- Hi. - Hey, I’m just checking in.

Have you talked to Frida?

Just when she came home. Nothing.

I’m meeting Einar and Eva at the bar.

I’ll come with you.

- To the bar? - Yes.

Are you sure?

Yes, I’m sure. Heida is asleep and I don’t have anything to do.

Okay. I’ll meet you there.

- Okay, see you in a bit. - Bye.

- Hi. - Hi.

Wow.

You look great. That’s good to see!

- Thanks. - No problem. Is she asleep?

Yes, she may wake up when you take her in.

Good, I’ve just prepared a bottle.

Good. Do you have enough for tomorrow?

Yes, I do.

- Okay. Going out? That’ll be great.

No, I don’t know.

I met Jonna today.

Yeah, she told me.

She’s a really great girl.

- Yeah, she’s all right. - Is she home?

No, she’s... I don’t know where with some friends.

- I don’t know. - She was with some girl at the pool.

She’s quick off the mark.

So, I’ll talk to you later.

- Yes. Have fun. - Thank you. Bye.

Bye.

Well, my dears. Everything good?

I’d go bankrupt if you public officials didn’t drink so much.

- One more round, please. - For the young ones.

- Take care, Einar. - Someone needs a clear head tomorrow.

- You’re such a chicken. - More like a grandfather.

- Good night. - Night.

Cheers to you guys.

It’s kind of nice hanging out here with you.

No offense, Tomas, I know the reason I’m here is not nice.

When are you leaving?

- Probably tomorrow morning. - So I can take the car?

Of course not. It’s evidence until a conclusion is reached.

- Like, if it was an accident? - No, like, where she hanged herself.

- Hanged herself? - Sorry, who?

What do you mean, hanged herself? Eva, what are you talking about?

Oh, shit. I’m not... I can't say anything right now.

What are you talking about, Eva? Hanged herself?

We don’t know anything, Tomas. The case is being investigated.

- I thought you knew. - We didn’t.

So Helena hanged herself and someone moved her to her car?

I’m too drunk to discuss this.

I don’t give a fuck if you’re drunk. Answer us.

Answer us!

Tomas.

Okay, all we know is that she hanged herself.

She hanged herself and someone moved her?

I’ll...

- I thought... - I’ll be back. Tomas.

Tomas. Tomas!

Sorry, this is horrible. I didn’t think...

- They think Gabriel did it. - No.

- I have to tell him. - Tomas, no...

You’re not supposed to know any of this.

Let them investigate. They’ll find out who did it.

We know it wasn’t Gabriel.

Nobody tells me anything. I can’t do this anymore.

I get it. I know.

How can you still live here after everything...

Everything that happened to you?

How do you do it, Anita?

I just...

wake

- You just wake up? - Yes.

Okay. I’m going home.

Tomas. Let me know...

Is he okay?

No. You know...

If I only had known... Sorry. I had no idea.

No, it’s okay, understand why he can’t know about it.

I should have known.

But why can’t I know about it?

Fuck knows. I don’t know. Whatever. Cheers.

Why are you still here? Why haven’t you moved back to the city?

Everyone’s forgotten what happened with Gusti.

Eva, we have a child together. And she’s here.

But isn’t his family in Reykjavik?

Why can’t you raise her there?

Because my family is here.

Right. Okay.

Can I ask you one thing?

I was at Salomon’s autopsy.

Was it really self-defence?

I mean, it was straight to the heart.

The wound shows he was right in front of the gun.

He grabbed the barrel, he was that close.

- And pointed - Yes. it to his heart?

There are no prints on the barrel.

He was very dangerous.

He was unarmed.

But very unstable.

Anita, look at me. Look at me.

Come on, it doesn’t fit.

What are you trying to say

I’m just asking you, just asking.

Woman to woman. Not as a cop.

Was it self-defence?

As opposed to what? An execution?

Yes.

You weren’t there.

You don’t know what you’re talking about.

No. That is true.

That’s him. That’s the guy.

- Salomon Holluson. - Guys, hurry.

- Get it. - Right now?

Yeah, just take it.

- Now. - Calm down.

- Hang on. - I’ll do it, move.

- No, I got it. - Then do it.

Come on, just pull it up.

Just wait.

Man, move.

- Yes! - Well done!

Stop it. Hurry up.

It was just a joke, chill.

- Ew, take another one. - But I look good in this one.

- That’s a cute one. - You’re not going to post it.

- Relax. - I look better in this one.

- No. - Yes.

- Just delete that one. - You’ll never be happy with the photo.

- Shut up. - Shut up yourself.

Is there a spirit among us?

Is Salomon’s spirit among us?

- Hey! Put your finger back. - Why?

- Otherwise the spirit will get out. - Do as he says.

We have to end the ceremony. Put it back.

Now...

Was your murder self-defence?

Guys, come on.

Are you calling my dad a murderer?

- Is there something wrong with you? - Are you stupid?

- Jonna... - You don’t have to be a bitch.

- Baldvin. - Say that again.

- Bitch. - This is bullshit.

- Jonna, chill. - Let her leave.

- What the hell is happening? - Oh, my God.

Hi.

Hello, my love.

Are you okay?

Listen...

How did Salomon die?

Why do you ask?

Did you kill him or... I mean, it was self-defence right?

Salomon was a very sick individual

and yes, it was self-defence, I promise.

Why? Did someone say something?

- Gusti. - Jesus Christ.

Gusti, I’m going to... I’m going to take Erla home.

- No, she just fell asleep. - She should sleep at home.

- You’re in no condition to take her. - What? I’m fine.

Okay, but she just fell asleep. Let’s let her sleep.

I’ll drive you home. The weather is horrible.

Jonna, look after Erla.

I’m already in my jacket. It’s no problem.

- Thank you. - No problem.

Do you sometimes regret it?

No, I don’t regret anything. It gave us Erla.

- Can you turn on the light? - Let me.

Babe, your breath stinks.

Are you a bit drunk?

No.

I want to sleep.

I’m sorry.

It’s okay.

I’m sorry.
