Riders of Justice (2020) - full transcript
Markus, a deployed military man, has to go home to his teenage daughter, Mathilde, when his wife dies in a tragic train accident. It seems to be plain bad luck - but it turns out that it might have been a carefully orchestrated assassination, which his wife ended up being a random casualty of.
Tallinn, Estonia
Good evening.
My niece wants a bicycle
for Christmas.
It's pretty, but I don't like red.
Do you have it in blue?
- Do you want me to order one?
- Please can I have it?
Nothing is certain in life.
Christmas is a long time away.
Maybe you'll get it, maybe you won't.
I think I'll get it.
God willing.
We'll see...
Riders of Justice
It's Dad.
Hi, honey. Is everything okay?
Everything's okay.
Has Mathilde left yet?
No, her bike was stolen at
the station, so I'm driving her.
- But the car won't start.
- Dammit!
- Should I call back later then?
- No, she'll be late now anyway.
What's up?
They've asked me to stay.
For how long?
Three months.
So he's not coming home?
No.
Oh.
At least he won't be
sitting in the barn,
staring into space like a vegetable.
Come on, we'll walk to the train.
Put the phone away.
Let's go.
We'll take the day off.
So the algorithm
concluded unequivocally
that the lowest income group
drove Kia, Fiat and Hyundai.
The middle income group drove
the larger Toyota models,
while the top group predominantly
chose Mercedes, Tesla and Audi.
So how did it do this? Well...
- Let me stop you there, Otto.
- Yes.
How long have you and your "team"
spent on this algorithm?
Oh boy, it's difficult
to say exactly.
- 46 weeks.
- But we mainly did it at night.
So we've spent a year and a fortune
on an algorithm that can figure out
that poor people drive Kia
and the rich Mercedes?
But the interesting part is
that the algorithm itself found
and collocated 82,504 registration
certificates with tax returns
from 46 municipalities
to generate the statistical basis.
Are any of those correlations
of interest to us, Otto?
Sure, but that isn't the goal.
You have to think bigger.
This algorithm can, in theory, when
we've developed the computing power,
predict events before they happen.
Try and explain that to us.
Events such as?
All events are products
of a series of preceding events.
Because we often have
insufficient data,
we categorize events
as "coincidences".
But they aren't.
When an intoxicated driver
crashes a car during a blizzard
we don't call it a coincidence,
as we have precisely the data needed
to form a causal conclusion.
We often even call it obvious.
But imagine if the flaw was
discovered before it could occur...
What is "macrodactyly”?
It means clubfoot.
My aunt in the city of Horsens
suffers from it on both feet.
So, your algorithm has also examined
if there's a correlation
between having a clubfoot
and being hard of hearing?
- That's one of my favorite topics.
- Lennart, let me.
Here, the algorithm gathered 41,534
patient records from 1912 to 2020.
The earliest it found
was quite amusingly...
Was there a correlation,
then, between being clubfooted
and hard of hearing?
Correlation?
No, not at all.
- It was pretty.
- It really was.
Please, take my seat.
There's room for one.
There's no need. I'm fine.
By all means.
I need to stretch my legs.
- Thank you.
- You're welcome.
Mom?
Mom!
Good work, boys.
We'll meet up in the tent
for debriefing in five.
The police are examining
the crash site.
All train operations are suspended
until 6 A.M. tomorrow.
The police have ruled out terror
as everything points to an accident.
The accident happened at 3:31 P.M.
It seems part
of a parked freight train
collided with the oncoming train.
Mainly the right hand side
of the three front carriages
incurred damages.
The death toll is now at 11.
It has been confirmed
that biker gang member
Johan "Eagle” Ulrichsen
and his lawyer are among them.
The Eagle was set to testify against
his former gang, Riders of Justice,
including the leader of the gang,
Kurt "Tandem" Olesen.
The case in question is the high
profile Kaalund Street homicide case
in which four Turkish men
were murdered.
Are we going home now?
I don't know.
Not yet, I think.
People go through four phases,
the shock phase
in which you and Mathilde are now.
- The reaction phase...
- I'd like to see my wife.
- I strongly advise against that.
- I'd like to see her.
- You...
- Stop talking.
I want to see my wife.
I've worked with
probability calculation
and statistical data
for over 26 years
and there are too many indications
that this wasn't an accident.
Such as?
The probability of a key witness
in a gang-related homicide case
and his lawyer dying in an accident
13 days before he set is to testify
is, according to my calculations...
Let's see.
One to 234,287,121.
Too big of a number
for it to be ignored.
It is most unfortunate.
But nothing indicates
that it was anything other
than an accident.
The numbers do.
The numbers never lie.
But that would require someone in
the Riders of Justice knowing exactly
which carriage and what seat
the Eagle would be sitting in.
- It doesn't make any sense.
- Isn't your job to make sense of it?
All I'm saying is
it's too big of a number.
And we are very grateful for that.
We'll look into it.
Thank you for stopping by.
The problem we're left with is that
I also noticed
a suspicious looking man
getting off the train
right before the "accident".
Okay?
What was suspicious about him?
He got on the train with a Joe and
the Juice sandwich and a large juice,
but he only ate a small bite
and didn't drink any of the juice.
And he suddenly stood up
and threw the entire sandwich
and juice in the trash
and got off the train.
Right...
A Joe and the Juice sandwich costs
seven Euros and 37 cents.
Eight Euros 10
if it's with extra filling,
and a large juice costs seven Euros.
No one throws away
more than 14 Euros' worth
- of sandwich and juice like that.
- We'll look into it.
Thank you for your help,
Mr. Hoffmann.

Sirius thinking of you
You're sweet
- I'll come inside in just a sec.
- I want to go to school after all.
I don't think you should.
If you want to get outside a bit,
we can go for a run.
I want to go to school.
Have you stopped running?
- No.
- When did you last go for a run?
I don't know.
Then you aren't running
three times a week like we agreed.
- Mathilde, it's for your own sake...
- You're such a dick.
Mathilde.
Why don't I drive you then?
It wasn't an accident.
It was an assassination.
But I can't prove it.
But if you can hack into
Fitness World's server,
that might help.
Fitness World? The chain of gyms?
No, the stone masonry, Lennart.
Be nice to me or I'm not gonna help.
Sorry. But would you be able to?
A blind kid could do that
with their feet.
I've hacked their servers
lots of times.
You've hacked their servers
plenty of times?
- To get Emmenthaler free pilates.
- Emmenthaler does pilates?
Jeez! See how little
you know about your team!
Emmenthaler has been suffering
from back pains the past three years!
What do you expect to find
on their server?
The Eagle.
The Eagle worked out every day, which
indicates that he was methodical.
If we can prove that he also used
the same treadmill every day,
there are grounds to believe
that he would also pick
the same train seat
and then they would've known
where he'd be sitting.
- Okay.
- Thanks, Lennart.
I have to renew
my crossfit card anyway.
When miracles happen, we often
attribute a divine character to them.
However, when lightning strikes,
when a tragedy becomes reality
we have a hard time
assigning a return address
and thus, we refer to it
as coincidences.
Because how could a merciful god
ever be part of as cruel a tragedy
as the one, which tore your beloved
mother and wife, Emma, from you?
But if everything
is merely coincidences,
isn't the most natural reaction then
to feel that nothing matters?
Then where do we go
with all our sorrow,
all our anger,
all our fears and loneliness?
- What's up, sweetie?
- I can't sleep.
Try closing your eyes
and counting backwards from 500.
Why do you think mom died?
No good'll come
from talking about it.
You really think
it was a coincidence?
Yes. I'll walk you to your room.
But what if it wasn't a coincidence?
What else would it be?
I don't know.
- God?
- Stop it.
Forget about that priest. She didn't
understand half of her own nonsense.
Try to close your eyes and sleep,
sweetie.
Grandpa believed in God.
Sure, but he wasn't all that smart.
But didn't you when you were a kid?
I also believed in Santa.
But when you grow up
you have to be able to distinguish
between reality and fantasy.
The priest was certain that God had
a reason for why mom had to die.
- We just don't understand it.
- Dammit, listen to yourself.
It's the kind of stuff
crazy people say.
Sorry.
I just miss her so much.
And I can't stand the thought
that she's... all alone.
I understand.
But she's not alone.
She's nothing now. She's gone.
- It's so unfair.
- Yeah.
When people die,
they're gone for good, sweetie.
And you might as well learn that now.
For unless you also die
at a young age,
you will end up burying
most of the people you love.
And if you keep tormenting yourself
every single time with false hope
about souls and little angels
in the clouds, you'll go crazy.
Okay?
Now...
Close your eyes and sleep.
Count backwards from 500. It helps.
- Yes?
- Markus Hansen?
Good evening. My name is
Otto Hoffmann, and this is Lennart.
I was on the same train
as your wife and daughter.
Is your daughter okay?
- How did you get my address?
- That was easy.
I told Otto to call first,
but he insisted...
I was standing right next
to your wife and your daughter.
What do you want?
I think you have the right to know
that it wasn't an accident.
Do you know who the biker gang member
Johan "The Eagle” Ulrichsen is?
- May I...?
- Sure.
- I'll just move these...
- This sure is some barn.
It's disproportionately large
compared to the main building.
Do you know what year it was built?
No. What is all this?
These are status certificates
from The Eagle's doctor
medical records,
criminal record, bank information,
phone records and text messages.
Where did you get all this?
- Lennart is good at finding things.
- It's not illegal.
Or, well, it is illegal.
But not very.
The penalty matches that of building
a private wooden pier
without a permit.
Why wasn't it an accident?
Because the security material
from fitness world shows us
that he wasn't just a man of habit,
but that he suffered from OCD,
which his medicine card
also confirms.
He was on Citalopram and Diazepam,
which is given to OCD patients.
And his criminal record
shows six cases of assault
on various train lines.
Most recently in November this year
when he kicked a retired gardener
in the face
when he refused to give up his seat.
So we have
the massive statistical anomaly,
we know the Riders of Justice knew
that the Eagle, because of his OCD,
always sat
in the second carriage, row two.
And we also have him.
- Who is that?
- We don't know yet.
But he debarked quickly
at the station
where your wife and daughter got on,
mere seconds before the accident.
- But surely a lot of people did?
- Right.
But this guy threw out
a whole sandwich and a full juice.
The previous night, the same man was
at Østerport Station at 10:14 P.M.,
where there was free access
to the parked freight train,
which later hit the passenger train.
Have you told the police about this?
We can't exactly show them this.
But we've talked to the police
three times. They couldn't care less.
They just think we're a couple
of overly intelligent charlatans.
This guy is the key.
We just have to figure out who he is.
We're on it,
but it isn't easy right now.
We have considerable disagreements
with our facial recognition expert.
Can you resolve those disagreements
and find out who that man is?
We have to get Emmenthaler on board.
- We need him.
- No way!
Wasn't that a great barn, huh?
Just like the one we had
back home in Horsens.
Are you sure you want
to reverse here?
Yeah, there's lots of room.
Watch out for the rock.
The shock phase is very individual.
Some want care,
contact and conversation.
Others just want to be left alone,
and both ways are perfectly okay.
But we offer both of you cognitive
therapy, individually or together.
Thank you. I'll let you know
if that becomes necessary.
We can have both a child and an
adult psychologist visit you at home.
- I think that's a great idea.
- I don't want it.
- Why not?
- Often, you're not aware of the...
We're trying to get our lives back,
so we don't want people
running around.
Come along.
It's Dad again.
It's quarter past now, Mathilde.
Call me back in five minutes,
or I'm gonna go looking for you.
- Buster and Gustav were annoying.
- They never talked to me before...
Mathilde! It's 10:30.
Why don't you answer your phone?
- Sorry. We went to the movies...
- You have to tell me that!
And you shouldn't be out at 10:30.
I'm allowed. Mom and I agreed on 11.
- Go home. Inside!
- Sure, but you don't have to shout.
- What was that?
- I'll go.
But using that tone with Mathilde
is not what she needs now.
What the fuck are you doing?
You're insane!
Sweetie, open the door. Come on.
Why don't you just kick it in,
you fucking psycho?!
Mathilde, I didn't mean to hit him
that hard.
I shouldn't have hit him.
Who is he?
Is he your boyfriend?
I don't know now that
you beat him up!
Yeah, that was kinda...
I didn't know he was your boyfriend.
No, because you were never around.
You don't know anything about me.
You don't know me at all!
Please open the door.
I've gone to bed.
Right...
Then sleep tight.
I'll see you tomorrow, okay?
We miss the first train
man offers mom seat
car breaks down
Bike stolen
- What do you want?
- It's Otto and Lennart.
I can see that. Go away.
Come on, Emmenthaler. We need you.
We're unraveling a murder case.
We've brought pizza.
I've got him.
Aharon Nahas Shadid, 38.
Works as a clinical
dental technician.
Nazlet Al Seman Al Kebli, 21,
Nazlet El Semman Al Haram,
Cairo, Egypt.
- Then it isn't him.
- Yes, it is.
He's the only match above the 99.12%
biometrical marker threshold limit.
Please stick to matches
with Danish addresses.
I'm telling you, there is no fucking
balls to match piss in Denmark.
What's the highest match percentage
you've got on a person in Denmark?
I haven't looked at that at all.
There's no one over
the 99.12% threshold.
But what if, for example,
we lowered the threshold
to 95% compatibility?
Sure, but it wouldn't make any sense.
To qualify for the Olympic high jump,
there's a minimum requirement...
I'm not gonna listen to that fucking
Olympics story a third time!
We get your point,
but we're asking you to change it
so that we don't just find people
in fucking South America and Africa.
We'll just fucking shit
call it a day here.
I won't stand for this cunt dick.
Take your pizza and get out!
You already ate it, you fat pig.
Take it easy... both of you.
Emmenthaler, listen.
Both photos of the man
were taken from a high angle,
so any match will be subject to
uncertainty no matter what, correct?
Sure, we don't have enough data
for a 100% match no matter what.
Exactly. So we're asking you to show
us what you've found in Denmark.
Okay, but it just doesn't
make any sense.
There's one right there at 95.84%.
Can we see him?
Please?
That's him.
That's the fucking guy.
I recognize him from the train.
Palle Olesen.
Look here.
Fuck.
Good morning, sweetie.
Are you hungry?
- I bought eggs and rye bread.
- I don't eat eggs.
Can't you spend less time
hiding all your empty cans
and empty the ashtray instead?
It's really gross.
What can I do
to make things right again?
Should I call him?
Talk to his parents and apologize?
He told his mom he fell, because
he doesn't believe in revenge.
I'm sorry.
He could've reported you to
the police. You gave him a black eye.
What if I made spaghetti bolognese?
We could all eat here and I could
meet him, apologize to him properly.
Spaghetti bolognese?
Do you think we are three years old?
So we'll get takeout.
Just tell me what you want.
Come on, Mathilde.
I'm doing my best here.
I'll ask him.
There's the barn, Emmenthaler.
Hi.
This is Emmenthaler.
Did you find out who he is?
Everyone has been eager
to see the barn,
so why don't we go
over there and talk?
His name is Palle Olesen, and this
is where it gets interesting.
He's a trained electrical engineer
specializing in train components.
He got off before the accident
and hung out
by the freight car the night before?
It gets even better.
He's the brother
of Kurt "Tandem" Olesen,
president of Riders of Justice.
The Eagle was testifying against him.
Shut up. He knows!
He's just processing it all...
So they're brothers.
We're all aware that we're on our way
to meet a psycho gang member, right?
His brother is a gang member.
He's an electrical engineer
specializing in train components.
Narcotics, assault, aggravated
assault, aggravated assault,
theft, complicity in manslaughter,
horse theft,
possession of a narcotic,
illegal possession of a firearm...
So an electrical engineer
specializing in trains,
- who moves in bad circles.
- And stole a horse.
And at some point he stole a horse,
but that doesn't make
him a gang member.
We'll see his reaction
when we mention the accident
and then go to the police.
- Go for a ride. He isn't ready yet.
- Hello, my name is Markus.
So what? He still isn't ready.
Go for a drive.
You don't understand. My wife
was on the train that crashed.
- So was he.
- I survived.
- We know that you were on it, too...
- What the fuck is this?
- We'd like to ask you...
- I think you should fuck off.
- Look...
- Shut the fuck up!
Do you want a bullet between
the eyes? Fuck off.
And take your three little piggies
with you. I said, fuck off!
Well, that's clarified, then.
Markus, no, no...
Fucking...
Is he dead?
Yes.
- Should I call the police?
- No. We can't do that.
- It was self-defense.
- No police. Let's get out of here.
If we don't report it, we at least
have to get rid of the body.
Forensic evidence brings down
the perpetrator
in 87.4% of all homicides.
Markus's DNA is all over him.
Emmenthaler, get in here and help.
- Now! Before someone sees you.
- We can't take him with us.
It's so outrageously illegal.
I want no part in that.
It was a mistake.
I shouldn't have done it.
I made a mistake.
Let's go.
He deserved it.
If you knew how many times
piss assholes like him
have been on my case.
You're not so tough now, huh?
Try bullying us now,
you fucking piss shit.
Who's a little piggy now,
you fucking cunt dick?
Emmenthaler, easy now.
- Cunt!
- Easy now.
Okay? Good.
- Let's get going.
- What about him?
We're not bringing a dead man.
Let me at least find some detergent
with DNA dissolving components.
Good idea. Something containing
sodium hydroxide or hydrogen nitrite.
- Benzyl sulfonamide would be best.
- Give the chemistry lesson a rest!
Go wait in the car. I'll handle it.
Have you killed someone before?
It certainly didn't look like
it was your first time.
I'm sure you've always worn
a uniform when you've done that.
Let's be quiet, Emmenthaler.
I know how you're feeling, Markus.
It might not be exactly the same,
but as a kid,
I loved playing the French horn.
How do you make that correspond to...
Let me finish!
Fucking interrupting all the time!
What I'm trying to say is:
I played in the Tivoli orchestra
in my red uniform
and black bear skin hat,
but when I turned 17, you weren't
allowed to be a part of it anymore.
Then you're on your own.
I tried playing a couple of times,
but...
It was as if it had been me
and the uniform playing together,
and I couldn't do it by myself.
Perhaps we should
listen to some music?
There.
- I'm not driving all the way up.
- Is he grabbing a cab?
I'm not reversing back out.
Last time I almost hit the fence.
Drive him to the house, fucking cunt.
Will you pay for the bodywork
if I hit anything?
- Hi. Sirius is here.
- Yeah.
Hi, Sirius. And I'm sorry.
No need to apologize.
It is a difficult time for you both.
Yup. Okay, good.
There's a clear correlation
between your job
and how you handle life crises.
A yoga instructor will meditate
their way out of the problems.
An athlete will implement
a competitive element
in a conflict solution model,
and so on.
And violence is part of your work
and everyday life, after all.
It's part of you, Dad, and
probably has been so for so long,
that it has become
the only solution strategy you know.
Do you understand
what we're trying to say?
I think so.
What if you're a baker?
How does a baker solve conflicts?
Naturally, the model doesn't apply
to all occupations.
Oh, it's that sort of model.
- What else did you guys do today?
- You need to get some help, Dad.
Have you talked to anyone?
- Sure.
- Who?
You. We talk.
Sirius meant a professional.
And, no, we don't.
Well, I think we do.
My mom is a psychologist
and available if you're...
Stop it, Mathilde.
- What do you want me to do?
- You need help, Dad.
Please let those
crisis psychologists come.
It would be good for both of us.
I can't do that, sweetie.
Not right now. I can't deal with it.
Today, the verdict was passed in the
case of the Kaalund Street killings.
Two members of the Riders of Justice
were sentenced to 16 years in prison,
while the president,
Kurt "Tandem" Olesen,
seen here leaving the court with his
right hand, Kenneth "Turbot" Jensen,
was acquitted on all charges.
Naturally, we are disappointed,
but without the Eagle's testimony,
we practically had nothing.
It couldn't be more unfortunate.
Kurt, a quick comment?
Today is a great day for my brothers
and me and for justice in general.
But is there much cause
for celebrating,
considering your brother's death?
My brother would have wanted us
to celebrate
that justice has prevailed.
So we will.
- Thank you all for coming.
- Why are we here?
I want you to find everything you can
on the Riders of Justice.
How many members, what crimes they've
been convicted and suspected of,
names, addresses, family relations,
where they hang out and so on.
Can it be done without anybody
being able to trace it?
We get that it's super easy for you.
It's super easy for me.
- What do you want all that for?
- I want to avenge my wife.
You want to kill them?
- I'm in!
- No.
Just get me close to them.
I'll do the rest.
- We want to do it all.
- We've discussed something similar.
It's a great idea. I'd like to help.
Me too!
We haven't talked about murder.
No, but you wanted
to drain their accounts
and sign them up
to lots of memberships.
There's a pretty big leap
from that to murder.
My point is we've discussed revenge.
If you consider
the deal we're entering,
Markus will be handling
the very illegal part of it.
Otto, it's a biker gang. We're not
bombing a kindergarten. We're in.
Look, we'll gather the information,
but we won't kill anyone.
- I knew it!
- You're such a poor leader.
That's how we'll do it, then. You get
the info, and I'll handle the rest.
- Call me if you need to, okay?
- Yes.
See you.
- Hi.
- Hi, sweetie. Home so soon?
It's Wednesday. School finishes
at two. What's going on?
That guy was on the train.
Him and mom talked.
That's right, so that's Otto.
Yes, he was on the train.
- What's going on, Dad?
- Well, he...
I'll tell you.
We've set up a confrontation
between your father and Otto.
Otto feels guilty about giving
your mother his seat on the train.
- It has proven very beneficial.
- Very, very beneficial.
Yeah, that's what
we're doing, Mathilde.
Oh Dad, thank you.
I was so hoping you'd let them come.
I also want to talk to them.
Right... to who?
The crisis psychologists.
- You are psychologists, right?
- Sure. That's exactly right.
Are you a child
or an adult psychologist?
Adult.
Dr. M.D., Ph.D. Lennart Horsens...
Horsenstownfarm.
Hi. And my colleague,
child psychologist Ulf Emmenthaler.
Ulf Emmenthaler.
Crisis child psychologist.
Hi. I'm somewhere in between.
What would you advise me to do?
From a therapeutic standpoint, you're
an adult. You should talk to me.
- Or maybe you should wait.
- No, that's why we're here.
It's good to break down
the initial barriers right away.
Come with me, Mathilde.
Lennart's brilliant.
He's seen more than 25 different
psychologists in 40 years.
He's in personal contact
with pretty much every diagnosis.
The other day, Sirius and I saw a dog
get run over. It bled and wailed.
Now you're afraid
of getting run over.
No...
It's just that I didn't feel sorry
for the dog, I didn't feel anything.
Perhaps it's because
you've just lost your mother...
I don't buy that because
my mom died and I'm grieving,
I don't have the emotional capacity
to feel for others.
That's not what I was going to say.
I was going to say
something completely different,
but it doesn't matter now.
I'm afraid I'm like my dad.
I'm sad every morning,
don't care about anything.
I don't want to do anything.
Well, of course you resemble
your dad. You have his genes.
And if I have kids,
they'll have those genes,
and won't give a damn about
anyone else and be cold and violent.
- You can't say that for sure.
- Statistically, they will.
Statistically, you could drown
in a puddle.
But you're not afraid of that.
Only good thing is
after all this crap,
it's unlikely more
is going to happen.
That's not how statistics work.
A lot of awful things can
still happen in your life.
They probably will.
But there will also be good things.
That's what we should focus on now.
Do you remember the first time
you saw something truly horrific?
Like on TV?
Yes. We once saw footage
from Auschwitz in school.
- There were dead bodies in piles.
- Oh, yes.
- Did that make you sad?
- Yes.
Or more scared at least.
But then I wasn't that big back then.
Or, you know, I was big,
but I wasn't that old, I mean.
RESEMBLES DAD
FEARS BEING CHUBBY
I wouldn't be too worried. If there's
one thing I learned back in Horsens,
it's that people tend
to stop reacting emotionally
when faced with repetition.
We don't laugh at the same joke
for the third time.
At some point, we stop crying
when we're abused
again and again and again,
by your dad and uncles,
out in a barn, for instance.
My point is that emotions arise
when we are surprised or stimulated.
And there's death and mutilation
every day on YouTube and TV,
which is why you don't feel anything.
- You really think it's just that?
- Absolutely. You're not dead inside.
But you're chubby.
- What?
- You're a chubby little salami.
Does he speak Danish?
Do you speak Danish?
- What did you tell the police?
- Nothing.
I see nothing, hear nothing.
- I'm like a little potato.
- See this?
Maybe it'll jog your memory.
Do you remember your name?
Bodashka lytvynenko.
Yeah, that's not gonna work.
You're Jens Ole.
It's easier for us to remember.
Much easier for everyone. Thank you.
Thank you for new name.
You're welcome.
If you don't start remembering,
I'll break your little
faggot fingers.
The last thing you'll hear
is this one saying bang!
I only saw one man.
He was dressed well,
handsome man.
Looks like the guitarist from
the rock band Queen.
But then I hear them
shouting one name.
One name. Anal thaler.
- Anal thaler?
- No, no.
Anal thaler. Like cheese sandwich.
They yelled it many times.
Ellemtaner?
Or... Emmentaler.
Emmentaler.
That's it.
- Want a hand with the wires?
- No, I'll connect them myself.
Step away from the wires! Step away!
Step away.
Sorry.
But if anything can get
my blood boiling,
it's monitors with bad resolution.
Look at Lennart's shitty resolution.
My eyes are going to hurt.
You're still very close to the wires,
please step away.
Step away from the wires!
Okay, one more. A big sip.
One more.
You can do better.
What are you doing?
Drinking coke upside down.
Impossible!
- Lennart, Otto, come with me.
- Not during a session.
And now ice cream. Knock yourself
out. Eat loads of ice cream.
- Mathilde, don't eat that junk.
- Don't listen to him. Eat. Eat!
- Outside, now.
- You're not at work.
Don't bark orders.
- Lennart knows what he's doing.
- Spit out that junk.
Now is the time to stand your ground.
Go on!
Dad...
I'm not afraid of being fat.
And I'm done trying
to look like a... starved sled dog
just because you're afraid of
having an overweight daughter.
Classic cognitive therapy.
Lennart does not use
gradual exposure but flooding.
Mathilde faces her demons.
Like putting a patient
with vertigo on a skyscraper.
- Do you work on a Core i9?
- I most certainly do.
Piss moron! How can I track anything
on such a small cunt processor?
Someone has to go get my servers
and my monitors right now.
Or I'll never get started
on this fucking piss shit.
Tiny shitty fuck computer.
I won't listen to that arrogant diva!
How dare you, you fat pig?!
As if your equipment is so superior!
I'm not hauling that trailer around!
Pussy monitors!
What's going on, Dad?
It's MBT, isn't it?
Well spotted, Sirius.
MBT is just what it is.
- What's MBT?
- We'll get to that later.
We have to get some stuff
at Emmenthaler's place.
- Yup.
- Mentalization based therapy.
You do role play and simulations
to provoke an emotional response.
- That's a simplified explanation...
- Lennart!
Now listen up!
Something's completely off.
It works. Look.
Your dad's interacting.
Never mind the method.
It's the results that matter.
He's acting weirder than ever before.
What are they doing
with that computer in the barn?
Don't say another word to her
or do anything else. Is that clear?
She's afraid of gaining weight
because you're constantly
on her case.
- We're just helping her.
- She doesn't need help.
I've had over 4,000 hours of therapy,
so I think I know
more about it than you.
Do you feel like those 4,000 hours
have helped?
Says the man who snaps people's necks
but is afraid of a bit of Coca-Cola
and ice cream.
You need help, Markus. And there's
nothing embarrassing about that.
What's important now is that
you too start working on yourself.
- Why can't she believe in God?
- Stop.
She's trying to make sense of it all.
She misses her mother.
- I said stop.
- Maybe, but that's not how it works.
Once you agree to active therapy,
you can't just stop when it hurts.
I'm going to beat
the living daylights out of you both
if you don't stop now.
Not another word.
No, let me tell you an educational...
- No! I'm sorry.
- What are you doing?
- No, no, no!
- Hey, don't do that.
- Please don't.
- Stop that!
I'll be good, I promise.
No, no, no!
Don't do it. No.
Sorry! Sorry!
For fuck's sake.
- I...
- We don't have to talk about it.
- I'm not from Horsens.
Stop talking.
I don't want to hear it.
I've always lied about it.
I'm from Randers.
Is that them?
Let me see... it might be this one.
- Look at them. Is that them?
- Yes, that's him.
Get down!
No! Don't kill him!
Don't kill him.
He's seen us.
We'll take him with us.
- Are you going to kill me?
- Nobody's killing anyone here.
- Relax. What's your name?
- Bodashka lytvynenko.
Many call me Jens Ole,
and you can, too,
as much as you like.
No, why would we? We'll call you...
That thing you said first.
Do you have a cell phone?
If they know who I am,
I can't go back home.
You'll have to stay here for now.
- Shouldn't we all stay here tonight?
- Yes.
We also need to get some weapons
so we can defend ourselves.
Can you do the job
with Lennart's gear?
Yes. But it won't be pleasurable
with those monitors.
It's madness to not give us weapons
now and teach us how to shoot.
No weapons!
So I have to destroy my eyes
in a freezing fucking barn,
trying to find a huge amount of data
on a tiny, crap computer.
If I can't get my own
piece of revenge,
I'm not sure I want to be part of it.
All of this screams revenge.
I'm not lifting a finger
if I don't get weapons training
right here and now.
Okay... get the equipment up
and running, then I'll train you.
Find everything you can on all
the gang members, and focus on Kurt.
Okay. Let's just shoot some birds
for starters.
Or a fox. Can't we just shoot
one fox each and that's it?
- Yes. Just get to work.
- What about Bodashka?
My mom paid our au pair extra,
because she thought
the wage was way too low.
But that depends on how much
Bodashka will be working here.
Just the usual, I guess.
Thirty-seven hours, right, Markus?
Thirty hours per week is
the maximum for au pairs.
Thirty-seven hours
is very fine for me.
How much did you work
at the last place?
It was different.
Ten to twelve hours every day.
People are assholes.
- And how much did they pay you?
- Well...
I earned about
12,000 Euros per month,
but I only kept 250.
We'll say 30 hours, and if it ends up
being more, we'll pay extra.
- Won't you stay, Dad?
- Let him go, Mathilde.
It's important
that he's allowed to withdraw.
- Do you play chess, Mathilde?
- No.
But we can play Star of Africa.
We've played that a lot.
I had a colleague
who was called Star of Africa.
He was strangled New Year's Eve
by a regular client.
- Lennart?
- Yes.
Do you want to fuck me
in my ass before you go to sleep?
No.
No, thank you.
We have a long day
ahead of us tomorrow.
Thanks, but no thanks.
Okay. Good night.
Good night.
Lennart?
Thank you for saving me.
And thank you
for not fucking me in my ass.
Don't mention it.
Sleep tight, buddy.
- Good night, Emmenthaler.
- Good night, Otto.
Hi. Where's my Dad?
He's at morning therapy.
- In the barn?
- Yes.
Well, tell him I said hi
and have a nice day.
You're missing a button here.
I'll sew it tonight.
Wait.
There.
You're very, very beautiful.
- Don't forget lunch.
- Thanks.
- Have a nice school day.
- Thanks, bye.
Kurt "Tandem" Olesen.
Death sentence.
Kenneth "Turbot" Jensen.
Death sentence.
Noah "Monkey" Frandsen.
Death sentence.
Wouldn't it be easier to name
the ones not sentenced to death?
Anker Trier, Tim "Thrasher" Petersen
and Vitus "Porky" Clausen
are off the hook.
They all have small children.
Aren't we being too harsh?
That's 22 killings.
They tried to kill us.
They know who we are
and won't stop unless we kill them.
So now we're doing it
like we agreed on.
The moment they realize
they're under attack,
it'll be harder to get to Kurt.
It already is. He's never alone,
he's always got 10 men around him.
How about killing one of them
and making it look like an accident,
and then whack the rest
at the funeral?
There'll be women and children
at a funeral. We can't do that.
- What about their clubhouse?
- Lennart.
Move!
Even though the resolution
on these monitors is really poor,
you can make out how the clubhouse
is under constant surveillance
by the police and Danish
intelligence. It's impossible.
But I know where they are 24/7
and I'm tracking their cell phones
and emails.
We'll wait for a chance to get Kurt
when there's only
five or six men around him.
If it's bigger than that,
we can help out.
Especially after the extensive
weapons training we were promised.
The M10 is an old model.
It is made up of a lower receiver,
buffer and spring,
upper receiver and barrel, optical
sight, bolt carrier, firing pin,
cocking handle and magazine.
Start by putting
the buffer into the spring.
- I can't get it in.
- It's not as easy for you.
Put the spring
into the lower receiver.
Done!
You were drafted?
I wasn't. Look at me.
- How did you do that so fast?
- Well, it's got so few components.
- It was kind of self-explanatory.
- That's insane.
Can you do it again?
I just like assembling things.
Done! Second place.
I don't get this. When exactly
will we need to assemble a rifle?
Our lives could possibly
depend on it. But it's really nice.
What's it called?
It's called fuck you, Emmenthaler.
If I wanted to assemble stuff,
I'd have gone to Ikea.
My police source says the Ukrainian
fag's phone was found at exit 51.
We should just focus our energy
around exit 51.
Focus?
Find the Ukrainian and we find them.
Ulf Emmenthaler has two buddies.
They were all fired two weeks ago.
Lennart Gerner Nielsen
and this guy, Otto Hoffmann.
Otto Hoffmann has a retard arm.
Don't you think
they'll be a bit easier to find
than sitting near exit 51 waiting
for a Ukrainian fag to drive by,
- huh, Kenneth?
- Sure.
Then find that retard arm for me.
Check this out.
This is just like pizza
and then again not quite.
- Is that too much?
- Still too much.
- The queen is the strongest, right?
- Numerically, yes.
But strategically, it's the pawn.
But it differs from game to game, all
pieces can prove to be the strongest.
Chess is the only game in the world
where chance and luck
aren't a factor.
There are no dice, no jokers
or hidden elements.
Everything is right in front of us
and it is purely your own actions
that determine the result.
Here are some snacks for you.
- Will you take a photo of us?
- Sure. Go sit on the sofa.
Yeah.
- Can I make a video?
- Like this?
- We're rolling.
- Let me just put this guy...
- Is that...
- It's fine.
It looks like Noller and a group
of 7 members are meeting tonight
at a restaurant, Antorini.
It's near the docks.
The Turbot confirms that Kurt will be
there at 7 P.M. Noller's treat.
There's gonna be 12 of them.
Can you handle that many?
Otherwise, I can come with you.
Lennart and Otto also hit
quite a lot out in the forest.
We could get them
when they leave the restaurant.
Capture them in crossfire
here and there.
We won't get a better chance, Markus.
You're coming with me.
Neutrons are slightly heavier
than protons.
Had it been the other way around,
atoms wouldn't have existed.
And without atoms,
no life, no nothing.
- Let's go, Lennart.
- Right... where are we going?
I'll explain in the car.
Can't it wait?
Mathilde baked a cake.
Emmenthaler, now!
Evening therapy session for all.
Come along. You owe it to the team!
Dad, you can't grab him like that.
- What the hell are you doing?
- Why must you always...
Shut up, Mathilde!
Stay out of it! Let's go!
Markus, you can't speak to your
daughter like that. What's this?
- Weapons? What are you up to?
- Markus will explain in the car.
Lennart, hurry up!
What do we need weapons for?
Isn't it too dark to shoot now?
- We're not shooting anything.
- We're doing a crossfire. Be quiet.
This is crazy. Killing more people
will only get you shot or jailed.
Don't you give a damn about Mathilde?
Shut the fuck up.
- Otto, I wouldn't go there...
- It won't bring your wife back.
I'll stop the car
and break your nose.
Let's get this over with as a team.
So we can go home
and eat banana cake.
Precisely.
All I'm saying is she's dead...
- Won't we lack crossfire now?
- What the hell is his problem?
He's got plenty.
Right now it's probably that he's
lying unconscious in a bike Lane.
His own daughter died in a car crash
so he can be a bit touchy
when it comes
to father-daughter relationships.
Don't feel bad, it was years ago.
He drove into a tree.
That's also how he got the limp arm.
It was January 12, 2002.
He had a BAC of 0.092 and had
his driver's license suspended.
Got a fine of 7,200 dollars.
You also hack your friends' files?
No, no.
Otto told us.
He mentioned it a few times anyway.
And then we just read up
on the details.
He has a picture out in his home
of his wife and daughter.
You're basically asking for it,
flashing your private life like that.
Get ready.
- No, Lennart, you're staying here.
- Lennart isn't coming?
Who are those biker girls?
I don't believe it!
I thought you said they'd be alone.
That's what they wrote.
Someone must have brought ladies.
- Let's get back to the banana cake.
- Hang on.
You stay here.
Where's he going?
What the fuck are you doing, man?
Fuck, man!
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I couldn't.
I'm not good at that stuff.
You're good at it. I'm not.
It's okay.
No, it's not.
They're dead now. He's dead.
It isn't easy killing another man.
Especially not the first time.
No, no, no. I can't...
I don't want to be part of
it anymore, never again.
You won't have to. But try
to focus on why we're doing it.
Why are we doing it exactly?
What if the guy lying there didn't
have anything to do with...
Shut up! He did! They all did.
Think of what they've done.
Think of
all the lives they've destroyed.
Oh, dear God.
Should l... Emmenthaler?
Should I turn on the radio?
Would you like that?
Listen to some quiet radio?
There...
- Dad.
- Not now, honey. We're working.
It's just because you mentioned
that Otto guy with the retard arm.
- Like this?
- Yes.
- Who's Sirius Zen?
- Just some fag I'm following.
Don't know him.
He makes good recipes.
- Good morning.
- Good morning, sweetie.
Good morning.
What happened to you, Otto?
Did you do that?
You're sick.
It's fucking you who should be dead
and not mom!
Hi. I just came to say
your dad didn't do it. I fell.
Don't lie.
You really suck at it.
- You all do.
- Don't be angry with your dad.
Perhaps he doesn't always
do the right thing, but he's trying.
He really sucks at trying then.
That's fair. But he's not well.
No, I know.
Are those the events
leading up to the accident?
And it began with your bicycle
being stolen?
Yes, because if my bike hadn't been
stolen, it never would've happened.
My mom wouldn't have had to drive me,
and then it wouldn't have mattered
that the car couldn't start,
and we wouldn't have gone by train.
How does your dad calling
affect it all?
He said he wasn't coming home.
My mom got so disappointed
that she suggested a skip day
and that we go to the city.
You do know that each
of these incidents
has its own individual
course of events?
What do you mean?
I was fired, for example. So I took
an earlier train than usual.
But you must go all the way back
to when I learned
to offer my seat to a woman.
Track down the man
who taught me that.
And he has his own course of events.
All your incidents will have
their own threads
intertwining with other events
and other people's lives, not into
infinity but in a very big equation.
Not even the most powerful computers
in the world would currently be able
to process all your data,
and even though you're a bright girl
your human brain will never process
just a fraction
of that amount of data
and you will therefore never
be able to draw a useful conclusion.
It'll never, ever make sense.
It's a waste of time.
I know.
I've gone over it all a million times
to uncover some reason.
But there isn't any.
Yes, that's just it.
There's a centillion reasons.
But they won't help you.
I sometimes dream about
finding the guy who stole my bicycle.
I see him riding off on my bike,
and then I run after him
and catch him.
But I also realize that it isn't
his fault. It's nobody's fault.
It's just easier when
there's someone you can...
Get mad at.
Yes.
My mother had seven children,
but the youngest were hungry
and thin like matchstick.
We freeze when winter comes.
So my mother sells a child.
Then Palle took me to Germany.
He rented me out...
I am like city bike
that everyone can come and ride on.
But then we go home on vacation
and I meet you.
We came home just three days
before you kill him dead and save me.
That can't be right. Palle was
on the train the week before.
No, no train. We fly home.
But not three days before?
You must've been home
from Germany before that?
No... we landed Monday
and you all kill him Thursday.
I just have to check something.
Did I say something wrong?
Oh no.
No, no, no!
Oh no!
I'm home.
My beautiful children.
The country is beautiful
and green and flat like a fetir.
But the food was
the biggest disappointment.
- Dad had the worst sandwich ever.
- Worse than Grandma's?
The tuna was old and wet,
the bread was dry like desert sand
and I got a juice
that tasted like camel droppings.
I had to throw it all into the trash
and get McDonald's.
It was only off by 3.28%.
It's improbable anyone would look
that much like Kurt Olesen's brother.
I told you. The biometric threshold
hadn't been met.
- You just wanted it to be true.
- No, I didn't.
He was a trained electrical engineer
specializing in train components.
Statistically,
it's nearly impossible.
But it was just a coincidence.
You invented it, Otto.
You said you recognized him
from the train.
I thought I did.
I must have been too fixated on...
So it was just an accident.
I'm sorry, Markus.
Who was it, then?
What?
If it wasn't him, who is it then?
Who is it?!
You told me it wasn't an accident.
But it is him.
It is him.
It is him.
- Markus... Markus...
- It is...
Markus.
Breathe. Nice and easy.
What's going on? What's going on?
- Nice and easy, that's it.
- I'm scared.
- What's that?
- I'm scared.
I understand.
I understand very well.
Look me in the eyes.
She's dead. She's gone.
Yes, she's dead.
Breathe now. Come here.
Come here. There...
There is old Ukrainian legend
about coincidences.
It is about Liubava Vasilkovna
from Vitebsk
a beautiful princess
who was hunting bear
the morning after the first full moon
of the spring.
A huge bear attacks her
and bites her finger off
with her beloved diamond ring on it.
Very sad for her.
But then exactly 10 years later
the morning after
the first full moon of the spring
in the same dense forest,
in the same place
she goes hunting again.
And now she shoots a big, old bear.
And when they open
the bear's stomach,
there was no ring inside.
Nothing.
Okay.
Well...
Now it'll be really exciting to see
if the water starts boiling soon.
Why did you come here, Otto?
Because the police wouldn't help.
Or I think I came
because we traded seats.
Because I was the one
who should have died.
Then I saw Mathilde at the hospital
and she looked so helpless.
Lennart and Emmenthaler,
they just tagged along?
They don't have many friends.
I sometimes think people
with problems band together.
Just like fat people, so they look
less fat when they're all together.
It makes it easier to live with.
You also have some things
you need to learn to live with.
I don't know that I've got things
I need to learn to live with.
You have to learn to live
with the death of your wife.
Why?
You need to get proper help.
Nothing helps.
Nothing matters anymore.
Yes, but...
You have Mathilde.
And we never should've had her.
Before she came,
I at least still believed that
once we had kids,
everything would make sense.
You have a responsibility
toward your daughter.
Sure. You were so fucking responsible
around your daughter.
No.
I wasn't.
Because I was an idiot.
I only thought about myself.
But not a day goes by
that I don't wish...
That I could get
just one more chance...
To find her hairbrush for her or...
Discuss if she could have a dog.
Or get fed up with her
for leaving the milk out.
I haven't got anything
to be proud of.
But you do.
I look at you and Mathilde
and I wish I was you.
Maybe nothing matters anymore
but nothing does if you haven't
got a relationship with it.
You don't know Mathilde.
That's why you don't understand her.
You'll just have to accept that
it takes time before it makes sense.
It takes time.
But you have time.
So use it.
I'm sorry if I got angry
and raised my voice.
It's okay.
And I'm sorry about...
The nose thing.
- Hi.
- Sirius.
- Is that you?
- Yes.
No, that means "call you later”.
- Give me your hand.
- No!
Listen up. I'm gonna break
one of your fingers now
and then you'll tell me where
you took this video of Otto Hoffmann.
- Where, when...
- I'll tell you!
Don't break my finger.
It's two now,
because you interrupted me.
Please don't.
What do you want to know?
Now it's three,
because you're a snitch.
And you just made it four,
because you're a crybaby.
It's just a finger.
That's very much to the point.
It's a really good paper, Mathilde.
You could perhaps soften it a bit.
Run to your room
and hide under your bed.
No matter what,
just stay there, okay!?
Roll over!
- Is anyone hit?
- I got hit in the foot.
My shoulder... my side.
I am unhit.
- I'm unhit, too.
- Emmenthaler, get down.
I managed to dodge the bullet.
Pretty amazing actually.
Lennart, I need help. Come here.
The bag with the M10s is at
the foot of the stairs.
You're faster than me, go.
Do you see it?
- Why did you take them all apart?
- Never mind, throw them to me.
Hi there.
Soldier boy!
Come out into the light.
Soldier boy, come out into the light.
Come out into the light
or I'll fucking blow her head off.
On your knees and lose that shit.
And the one in your panties.
Let's take out the old fart.
This really sucks.
What the hell did we ever do to you?
Don't be scared, sweetie.
Everything will be okay.
There...
I'll call an ambulance.
Don't be scared.
Does it hurt?
No.
I'm just really cold.
They're coming now, Dad.
They're coming.
I should have listened to you.
I think I need help.
I'm sorry.
Dad...
They're coming any minute now.
Just keep talking.
I'm sorry.
Dad...
What is this?
- Chess. Thanks a lot, Mathilde.
- You're welcome.
I really like it.
It's Otto's turn to choose a present.
Let's see what we've got here.
This one. Oh boy.
To Emmenthaler
from Markus and Mathilde.
Wow.
What the hell is that?
It's a French horn.
Can you do magic on that,
Emmenthaler?
I don't think so.
- What do you want me to play?
- Who gives a fuck?
Just any old song.
But what?
Just play something random.
I'll be damned if I'm listening
to that on Christmas Eve!
Easy now. Breathe.
You're in uniform
in the Tivoli Gardens.
- We're on the lawn.
- Yes.
There. I know you can do it.
Riders of Justice
Riders of Justice
Good evening.
My niece wants a bicycle
for Christmas.
It's pretty, but I don't like red.
Do you have it in blue?
- Do you want me to order one?
- Please can I have it?
Nothing is certain in life.
Christmas is a long time away.
Maybe you'll get it, maybe you won't.
I think I'll get it.
God willing.
We'll see...
Riders of Justice
It's Dad.
Hi, honey. Is everything okay?
Everything's okay.
Has Mathilde left yet?
No, her bike was stolen at
the station, so I'm driving her.
- But the car won't start.
- Dammit!
- Should I call back later then?
- No, she'll be late now anyway.
What's up?
They've asked me to stay.
For how long?
Three months.
So he's not coming home?
No.
Oh.
At least he won't be
sitting in the barn,
staring into space like a vegetable.
Come on, we'll walk to the train.
Put the phone away.
Let's go.
We'll take the day off.
So the algorithm
concluded unequivocally
that the lowest income group
drove Kia, Fiat and Hyundai.
The middle income group drove
the larger Toyota models,
while the top group predominantly
chose Mercedes, Tesla and Audi.
So how did it do this? Well...
- Let me stop you there, Otto.
- Yes.
How long have you and your "team"
spent on this algorithm?
Oh boy, it's difficult
to say exactly.
- 46 weeks.
- But we mainly did it at night.
So we've spent a year and a fortune
on an algorithm that can figure out
that poor people drive Kia
and the rich Mercedes?
But the interesting part is
that the algorithm itself found
and collocated 82,504 registration
certificates with tax returns
from 46 municipalities
to generate the statistical basis.
Are any of those correlations
of interest to us, Otto?
Sure, but that isn't the goal.
You have to think bigger.
This algorithm can, in theory, when
we've developed the computing power,
predict events before they happen.
Try and explain that to us.
Events such as?
All events are products
of a series of preceding events.
Because we often have
insufficient data,
we categorize events
as "coincidences".
But they aren't.
When an intoxicated driver
crashes a car during a blizzard
we don't call it a coincidence,
as we have precisely the data needed
to form a causal conclusion.
We often even call it obvious.
But imagine if the flaw was
discovered before it could occur...
What is "macrodactyly”?
It means clubfoot.
My aunt in the city of Horsens
suffers from it on both feet.
So, your algorithm has also examined
if there's a correlation
between having a clubfoot
and being hard of hearing?
- That's one of my favorite topics.
- Lennart, let me.
Here, the algorithm gathered 41,534
patient records from 1912 to 2020.
The earliest it found
was quite amusingly...
Was there a correlation,
then, between being clubfooted
and hard of hearing?
Correlation?
No, not at all.
- It was pretty.
- It really was.
Please, take my seat.
There's room for one.
There's no need. I'm fine.
By all means.
I need to stretch my legs.
- Thank you.
- You're welcome.
Mom?
Mom!
Good work, boys.
We'll meet up in the tent
for debriefing in five.
The police are examining
the crash site.
All train operations are suspended
until 6 A.M. tomorrow.
The police have ruled out terror
as everything points to an accident.
The accident happened at 3:31 P.M.
It seems part
of a parked freight train
collided with the oncoming train.
Mainly the right hand side
of the three front carriages
incurred damages.
The death toll is now at 11.
It has been confirmed
that biker gang member
Johan "Eagle” Ulrichsen
and his lawyer are among them.
The Eagle was set to testify against
his former gang, Riders of Justice,
including the leader of the gang,
Kurt "Tandem" Olesen.
The case in question is the high
profile Kaalund Street homicide case
in which four Turkish men
were murdered.
Are we going home now?
I don't know.
Not yet, I think.
People go through four phases,
the shock phase
in which you and Mathilde are now.
- The reaction phase...
- I'd like to see my wife.
- I strongly advise against that.
- I'd like to see her.
- You...
- Stop talking.
I want to see my wife.
I've worked with
probability calculation
and statistical data
for over 26 years
and there are too many indications
that this wasn't an accident.
Such as?
The probability of a key witness
in a gang-related homicide case
and his lawyer dying in an accident
13 days before he set is to testify
is, according to my calculations...
Let's see.
One to 234,287,121.
Too big of a number
for it to be ignored.
It is most unfortunate.
But nothing indicates
that it was anything other
than an accident.
The numbers do.
The numbers never lie.
But that would require someone in
the Riders of Justice knowing exactly
which carriage and what seat
the Eagle would be sitting in.
- It doesn't make any sense.
- Isn't your job to make sense of it?
All I'm saying is
it's too big of a number.
And we are very grateful for that.
We'll look into it.
Thank you for stopping by.
The problem we're left with is that
I also noticed
a suspicious looking man
getting off the train
right before the "accident".
Okay?
What was suspicious about him?
He got on the train with a Joe and
the Juice sandwich and a large juice,
but he only ate a small bite
and didn't drink any of the juice.
And he suddenly stood up
and threw the entire sandwich
and juice in the trash
and got off the train.
Right...
A Joe and the Juice sandwich costs
seven Euros and 37 cents.
Eight Euros 10
if it's with extra filling,
and a large juice costs seven Euros.
No one throws away
more than 14 Euros' worth
- of sandwich and juice like that.
- We'll look into it.
Thank you for your help,
Mr. Hoffmann.
Car breaks down
Dad calls
take the long way around
Sirius thinking of you
You're sweet
- I'll come inside in just a sec.
- I want to go to school after all.
I don't think you should.
If you want to get outside a bit,
we can go for a run.
I want to go to school.
Have you stopped running?
- No.
- When did you last go for a run?
I don't know.
Then you aren't running
three times a week like we agreed.
- Mathilde, it's for your own sake...
- You're such a dick.
Mathilde.
Why don't I drive you then?
It wasn't an accident.
It was an assassination.
But I can't prove it.
But if you can hack into
Fitness World's server,
that might help.
Fitness World? The chain of gyms?
No, the stone masonry, Lennart.
Be nice to me or I'm not gonna help.
Sorry. But would you be able to?
A blind kid could do that
with their feet.
I've hacked their servers
lots of times.
You've hacked their servers
plenty of times?
- To get Emmenthaler free pilates.
- Emmenthaler does pilates?
Jeez! See how little
you know about your team!
Emmenthaler has been suffering
from back pains the past three years!
What do you expect to find
on their server?
The Eagle.
The Eagle worked out every day, which
indicates that he was methodical.
If we can prove that he also used
the same treadmill every day,
there are grounds to believe
that he would also pick
the same train seat
and then they would've known
where he'd be sitting.
- Okay.
- Thanks, Lennart.
I have to renew
my crossfit card anyway.
When miracles happen, we often
attribute a divine character to them.
However, when lightning strikes,
when a tragedy becomes reality
we have a hard time
assigning a return address
and thus, we refer to it
as coincidences.
Because how could a merciful god
ever be part of as cruel a tragedy
as the one, which tore your beloved
mother and wife, Emma, from you?
But if everything
is merely coincidences,
isn't the most natural reaction then
to feel that nothing matters?
Then where do we go
with all our sorrow,
all our anger,
all our fears and loneliness?
- What's up, sweetie?
- I can't sleep.
Try closing your eyes
and counting backwards from 500.
Why do you think mom died?
No good'll come
from talking about it.
You really think
it was a coincidence?
Yes. I'll walk you to your room.
But what if it wasn't a coincidence?
What else would it be?
I don't know.
- God?
- Stop it.
Forget about that priest. She didn't
understand half of her own nonsense.
Try to close your eyes and sleep,
sweetie.
Grandpa believed in God.
Sure, but he wasn't all that smart.
But didn't you when you were a kid?
I also believed in Santa.
But when you grow up
you have to be able to distinguish
between reality and fantasy.
The priest was certain that God had
a reason for why mom had to die.
- We just don't understand it.
- Dammit, listen to yourself.
It's the kind of stuff
crazy people say.
Sorry.
I just miss her so much.
And I can't stand the thought
that she's... all alone.
I understand.
But she's not alone.
She's nothing now. She's gone.
- It's so unfair.
- Yeah.
When people die,
they're gone for good, sweetie.
And you might as well learn that now.
For unless you also die
at a young age,
you will end up burying
most of the people you love.
And if you keep tormenting yourself
every single time with false hope
about souls and little angels
in the clouds, you'll go crazy.
Okay?
Now...
Close your eyes and sleep.
Count backwards from 500. It helps.
- Yes?
- Markus Hansen?
Good evening. My name is
Otto Hoffmann, and this is Lennart.
I was on the same train
as your wife and daughter.
Is your daughter okay?
- How did you get my address?
- That was easy.
I told Otto to call first,
but he insisted...
I was standing right next
to your wife and your daughter.
What do you want?
I think you have the right to know
that it wasn't an accident.
Do you know who the biker gang member
Johan "The Eagle” Ulrichsen is?
- May I...?
- Sure.
- I'll just move these...
- This sure is some barn.
It's disproportionately large
compared to the main building.
Do you know what year it was built?
No. What is all this?
These are status certificates
from The Eagle's doctor
medical records,
criminal record, bank information,
phone records and text messages.
Where did you get all this?
- Lennart is good at finding things.
- It's not illegal.
Or, well, it is illegal.
But not very.
The penalty matches that of building
a private wooden pier
without a permit.
Why wasn't it an accident?
Because the security material
from fitness world shows us
that he wasn't just a man of habit,
but that he suffered from OCD,
which his medicine card
also confirms.
He was on Citalopram and Diazepam,
which is given to OCD patients.
And his criminal record
shows six cases of assault
on various train lines.
Most recently in November this year
when he kicked a retired gardener
in the face
when he refused to give up his seat.
So we have
the massive statistical anomaly,
we know the Riders of Justice knew
that the Eagle, because of his OCD,
always sat
in the second carriage, row two.
And we also have him.
- Who is that?
- We don't know yet.
But he debarked quickly
at the station
where your wife and daughter got on,
mere seconds before the accident.
- But surely a lot of people did?
- Right.
But this guy threw out
a whole sandwich and a full juice.
The previous night, the same man was
at Østerport Station at 10:14 P.M.,
where there was free access
to the parked freight train,
which later hit the passenger train.
Have you told the police about this?
We can't exactly show them this.
But we've talked to the police
three times. They couldn't care less.
They just think we're a couple
of overly intelligent charlatans.
This guy is the key.
We just have to figure out who he is.
We're on it,
but it isn't easy right now.
We have considerable disagreements
with our facial recognition expert.
Can you resolve those disagreements
and find out who that man is?
We have to get Emmenthaler on board.
- We need him.
- No way!
Wasn't that a great barn, huh?
Just like the one we had
back home in Horsens.
Are you sure you want
to reverse here?
Yeah, there's lots of room.
Watch out for the rock.
The shock phase is very individual.
Some want care,
contact and conversation.
Others just want to be left alone,
and both ways are perfectly okay.
But we offer both of you cognitive
therapy, individually or together.
Thank you. I'll let you know
if that becomes necessary.
We can have both a child and an
adult psychologist visit you at home.
- I think that's a great idea.
- I don't want it.
- Why not?
- Often, you're not aware of the...
We're trying to get our lives back,
so we don't want people
running around.
Come along.
It's Dad again.
It's quarter past now, Mathilde.
Call me back in five minutes,
or I'm gonna go looking for you.
- Buster and Gustav were annoying.
- They never talked to me before...
Mathilde! It's 10:30.
Why don't you answer your phone?
- Sorry. We went to the movies...
- You have to tell me that!
And you shouldn't be out at 10:30.
I'm allowed. Mom and I agreed on 11.
- Go home. Inside!
- Sure, but you don't have to shout.
- What was that?
- I'll go.
But using that tone with Mathilde
is not what she needs now.
What the fuck are you doing?
You're insane!
Sweetie, open the door. Come on.
Why don't you just kick it in,
you fucking psycho?!
Mathilde, I didn't mean to hit him
that hard.
I shouldn't have hit him.
Who is he?
Is he your boyfriend?
I don't know now that
you beat him up!
Yeah, that was kinda...
I didn't know he was your boyfriend.
No, because you were never around.
You don't know anything about me.
You don't know me at all!
Please open the door.
I've gone to bed.
Right...
Then sleep tight.
I'll see you tomorrow, okay?
We miss the first train
man offers mom seat
car breaks down
Bike stolen
- What do you want?
- It's Otto and Lennart.
I can see that. Go away.
Come on, Emmenthaler. We need you.
We're unraveling a murder case.
We've brought pizza.
I've got him.
Aharon Nahas Shadid, 38.
Works as a clinical
dental technician.
Nazlet Al Seman Al Kebli, 21,
Nazlet El Semman Al Haram,
Cairo, Egypt.
- Then it isn't him.
- Yes, it is.
He's the only match above the 99.12%
biometrical marker threshold limit.
Please stick to matches
with Danish addresses.
I'm telling you, there is no fucking
balls to match piss in Denmark.
What's the highest match percentage
you've got on a person in Denmark?
I haven't looked at that at all.
There's no one over
the 99.12% threshold.
But what if, for example,
we lowered the threshold
to 95% compatibility?
Sure, but it wouldn't make any sense.
To qualify for the Olympic high jump,
there's a minimum requirement...
I'm not gonna listen to that fucking
Olympics story a third time!
We get your point,
but we're asking you to change it
so that we don't just find people
in fucking South America and Africa.
We'll just fucking shit
call it a day here.
I won't stand for this cunt dick.
Take your pizza and get out!
You already ate it, you fat pig.
Take it easy... both of you.
Emmenthaler, listen.
Both photos of the man
were taken from a high angle,
so any match will be subject to
uncertainty no matter what, correct?
Sure, we don't have enough data
for a 100% match no matter what.
Exactly. So we're asking you to show
us what you've found in Denmark.
Okay, but it just doesn't
make any sense.
There's one right there at 95.84%.
Can we see him?
Please?
That's him.
That's the fucking guy.
I recognize him from the train.
Palle Olesen.
Look here.
Fuck.
Good morning, sweetie.
Are you hungry?
- I bought eggs and rye bread.
- I don't eat eggs.
Can't you spend less time
hiding all your empty cans
and empty the ashtray instead?
It's really gross.
What can I do
to make things right again?
Should I call him?
Talk to his parents and apologize?
He told his mom he fell, because
he doesn't believe in revenge.
I'm sorry.
He could've reported you to
the police. You gave him a black eye.
What if I made spaghetti bolognese?
We could all eat here and I could
meet him, apologize to him properly.
Spaghetti bolognese?
Do you think we are three years old?
So we'll get takeout.
Just tell me what you want.
Come on, Mathilde.
I'm doing my best here.
I'll ask him.
There's the barn, Emmenthaler.
Hi.
This is Emmenthaler.
Did you find out who he is?
Everyone has been eager
to see the barn,
so why don't we go
over there and talk?
His name is Palle Olesen, and this
is where it gets interesting.
He's a trained electrical engineer
specializing in train components.
He got off before the accident
and hung out
by the freight car the night before?
It gets even better.
He's the brother
of Kurt "Tandem" Olesen,
president of Riders of Justice.
The Eagle was testifying against him.
Shut up. He knows!
He's just processing it all...
So they're brothers.
We're all aware that we're on our way
to meet a psycho gang member, right?
His brother is a gang member.
He's an electrical engineer
specializing in train components.
Narcotics, assault, aggravated
assault, aggravated assault,
theft, complicity in manslaughter,
horse theft,
possession of a narcotic,
illegal possession of a firearm...
So an electrical engineer
specializing in trains,
- who moves in bad circles.
- And stole a horse.
And at some point he stole a horse,
but that doesn't make
him a gang member.
We'll see his reaction
when we mention the accident
and then go to the police.
- Go for a ride. He isn't ready yet.
- Hello, my name is Markus.
So what? He still isn't ready.
Go for a drive.
You don't understand. My wife
was on the train that crashed.
- So was he.
- I survived.
- We know that you were on it, too...
- What the fuck is this?
- We'd like to ask you...
- I think you should fuck off.
- Look...
- Shut the fuck up!
Do you want a bullet between
the eyes? Fuck off.
And take your three little piggies
with you. I said, fuck off!
Well, that's clarified, then.
Markus, no, no...
Fucking...
Is he dead?
Yes.
- Should I call the police?
- No. We can't do that.
- It was self-defense.
- No police. Let's get out of here.
If we don't report it, we at least
have to get rid of the body.
Forensic evidence brings down
the perpetrator
in 87.4% of all homicides.
Markus's DNA is all over him.
Emmenthaler, get in here and help.
- Now! Before someone sees you.
- We can't take him with us.
It's so outrageously illegal.
I want no part in that.
It was a mistake.
I shouldn't have done it.
I made a mistake.
Let's go.
He deserved it.
If you knew how many times
piss assholes like him
have been on my case.
You're not so tough now, huh?
Try bullying us now,
you fucking piss shit.
Who's a little piggy now,
you fucking cunt dick?
Emmenthaler, easy now.
- Cunt!
- Easy now.
Okay? Good.
- Let's get going.
- What about him?
We're not bringing a dead man.
Let me at least find some detergent
with DNA dissolving components.
Good idea. Something containing
sodium hydroxide or hydrogen nitrite.
- Benzyl sulfonamide would be best.
- Give the chemistry lesson a rest!
Go wait in the car. I'll handle it.
Have you killed someone before?
It certainly didn't look like
it was your first time.
I'm sure you've always worn
a uniform when you've done that.
Let's be quiet, Emmenthaler.
I know how you're feeling, Markus.
It might not be exactly the same,
but as a kid,
I loved playing the French horn.
How do you make that correspond to...
Let me finish!
Fucking interrupting all the time!
What I'm trying to say is:
I played in the Tivoli orchestra
in my red uniform
and black bear skin hat,
but when I turned 17, you weren't
allowed to be a part of it anymore.
Then you're on your own.
I tried playing a couple of times,
but...
It was as if it had been me
and the uniform playing together,
and I couldn't do it by myself.
Perhaps we should
listen to some music?
There.
- I'm not driving all the way up.
- Is he grabbing a cab?
I'm not reversing back out.
Last time I almost hit the fence.
Drive him to the house, fucking cunt.
Will you pay for the bodywork
if I hit anything?
- Hi. Sirius is here.
- Yeah.
Hi, Sirius. And I'm sorry.
No need to apologize.
It is a difficult time for you both.
Yup. Okay, good.
There's a clear correlation
between your job
and how you handle life crises.
A yoga instructor will meditate
their way out of the problems.
An athlete will implement
a competitive element
in a conflict solution model,
and so on.
And violence is part of your work
and everyday life, after all.
It's part of you, Dad, and
probably has been so for so long,
that it has become
the only solution strategy you know.
Do you understand
what we're trying to say?
I think so.
What if you're a baker?
How does a baker solve conflicts?
Naturally, the model doesn't apply
to all occupations.
Oh, it's that sort of model.
- What else did you guys do today?
- You need to get some help, Dad.
Have you talked to anyone?
- Sure.
- Who?
You. We talk.
Sirius meant a professional.
And, no, we don't.
Well, I think we do.
My mom is a psychologist
and available if you're...
Stop it, Mathilde.
- What do you want me to do?
- You need help, Dad.
Please let those
crisis psychologists come.
It would be good for both of us.
I can't do that, sweetie.
Not right now. I can't deal with it.
Today, the verdict was passed in the
case of the Kaalund Street killings.
Two members of the Riders of Justice
were sentenced to 16 years in prison,
while the president,
Kurt "Tandem" Olesen,
seen here leaving the court with his
right hand, Kenneth "Turbot" Jensen,
was acquitted on all charges.
Naturally, we are disappointed,
but without the Eagle's testimony,
we practically had nothing.
It couldn't be more unfortunate.
Kurt, a quick comment?
Today is a great day for my brothers
and me and for justice in general.
But is there much cause
for celebrating,
considering your brother's death?
My brother would have wanted us
to celebrate
that justice has prevailed.
So we will.
- Thank you all for coming.
- Why are we here?
I want you to find everything you can
on the Riders of Justice.
How many members, what crimes they've
been convicted and suspected of,
names, addresses, family relations,
where they hang out and so on.
Can it be done without anybody
being able to trace it?
We get that it's super easy for you.
It's super easy for me.
- What do you want all that for?
- I want to avenge my wife.
You want to kill them?
- I'm in!
- No.
Just get me close to them.
I'll do the rest.
- We want to do it all.
- We've discussed something similar.
It's a great idea. I'd like to help.
Me too!
We haven't talked about murder.
No, but you wanted
to drain their accounts
and sign them up
to lots of memberships.
There's a pretty big leap
from that to murder.
My point is we've discussed revenge.
If you consider
the deal we're entering,
Markus will be handling
the very illegal part of it.
Otto, it's a biker gang. We're not
bombing a kindergarten. We're in.
Look, we'll gather the information,
but we won't kill anyone.
- I knew it!
- You're such a poor leader.
That's how we'll do it, then. You get
the info, and I'll handle the rest.
- Call me if you need to, okay?
- Yes.
See you.
- Hi.
- Hi, sweetie. Home so soon?
It's Wednesday. School finishes
at two. What's going on?
That guy was on the train.
Him and mom talked.
That's right, so that's Otto.
Yes, he was on the train.
- What's going on, Dad?
- Well, he...
I'll tell you.
We've set up a confrontation
between your father and Otto.
Otto feels guilty about giving
your mother his seat on the train.
- It has proven very beneficial.
- Very, very beneficial.
Yeah, that's what
we're doing, Mathilde.
Oh Dad, thank you.
I was so hoping you'd let them come.
I also want to talk to them.
Right... to who?
The crisis psychologists.
- You are psychologists, right?
- Sure. That's exactly right.
Are you a child
or an adult psychologist?
Adult.
Dr. M.D., Ph.D. Lennart Horsens...
Horsenstownfarm.
Hi. And my colleague,
child psychologist Ulf Emmenthaler.
Ulf Emmenthaler.
Crisis child psychologist.
Hi. I'm somewhere in between.
What would you advise me to do?
From a therapeutic standpoint, you're
an adult. You should talk to me.
- Or maybe you should wait.
- No, that's why we're here.
It's good to break down
the initial barriers right away.
Come with me, Mathilde.
Lennart's brilliant.
He's seen more than 25 different
psychologists in 40 years.
He's in personal contact
with pretty much every diagnosis.
The other day, Sirius and I saw a dog
get run over. It bled and wailed.
Now you're afraid
of getting run over.
No...
It's just that I didn't feel sorry
for the dog, I didn't feel anything.
Perhaps it's because
you've just lost your mother...
I don't buy that because
my mom died and I'm grieving,
I don't have the emotional capacity
to feel for others.
That's not what I was going to say.
I was going to say
something completely different,
but it doesn't matter now.
I'm afraid I'm like my dad.
I'm sad every morning,
don't care about anything.
I don't want to do anything.
Well, of course you resemble
your dad. You have his genes.
And if I have kids,
they'll have those genes,
and won't give a damn about
anyone else and be cold and violent.
- You can't say that for sure.
- Statistically, they will.
Statistically, you could drown
in a puddle.
But you're not afraid of that.
Only good thing is
after all this crap,
it's unlikely more
is going to happen.
That's not how statistics work.
A lot of awful things can
still happen in your life.
They probably will.
But there will also be good things.
That's what we should focus on now.
Do you remember the first time
you saw something truly horrific?
Like on TV?
Yes. We once saw footage
from Auschwitz in school.
- There were dead bodies in piles.
- Oh, yes.
- Did that make you sad?
- Yes.
Or more scared at least.
But then I wasn't that big back then.
Or, you know, I was big,
but I wasn't that old, I mean.
RESEMBLES DAD
FEARS BEING CHUBBY
I wouldn't be too worried. If there's
one thing I learned back in Horsens,
it's that people tend
to stop reacting emotionally
when faced with repetition.
We don't laugh at the same joke
for the third time.
At some point, we stop crying
when we're abused
again and again and again,
by your dad and uncles,
out in a barn, for instance.
My point is that emotions arise
when we are surprised or stimulated.
And there's death and mutilation
every day on YouTube and TV,
which is why you don't feel anything.
- You really think it's just that?
- Absolutely. You're not dead inside.
But you're chubby.
- What?
- You're a chubby little salami.
Does he speak Danish?
Do you speak Danish?
- What did you tell the police?
- Nothing.
I see nothing, hear nothing.
- I'm like a little potato.
- See this?
Maybe it'll jog your memory.
Do you remember your name?
Bodashka lytvynenko.
Yeah, that's not gonna work.
You're Jens Ole.
It's easier for us to remember.
Much easier for everyone. Thank you.
Thank you for new name.
You're welcome.
If you don't start remembering,
I'll break your little
faggot fingers.
The last thing you'll hear
is this one saying bang!
I only saw one man.
He was dressed well,
handsome man.
Looks like the guitarist from
the rock band Queen.
But then I hear them
shouting one name.
One name. Anal thaler.
- Anal thaler?
- No, no.
Anal thaler. Like cheese sandwich.
They yelled it many times.
Ellemtaner?
Or... Emmentaler.
Emmentaler.
That's it.
- Want a hand with the wires?
- No, I'll connect them myself.
Step away from the wires! Step away!
Step away.
Sorry.
But if anything can get
my blood boiling,
it's monitors with bad resolution.
Look at Lennart's shitty resolution.
My eyes are going to hurt.
You're still very close to the wires,
please step away.
Step away from the wires!
Okay, one more. A big sip.
One more.
You can do better.
What are you doing?
Drinking coke upside down.
Impossible!
- Lennart, Otto, come with me.
- Not during a session.
And now ice cream. Knock yourself
out. Eat loads of ice cream.
- Mathilde, don't eat that junk.
- Don't listen to him. Eat. Eat!
- Outside, now.
- You're not at work.
Don't bark orders.
- Lennart knows what he's doing.
- Spit out that junk.
Now is the time to stand your ground.
Go on!
Dad...
I'm not afraid of being fat.
And I'm done trying
to look like a... starved sled dog
just because you're afraid of
having an overweight daughter.
Classic cognitive therapy.
Lennart does not use
gradual exposure but flooding.
Mathilde faces her demons.
Like putting a patient
with vertigo on a skyscraper.
- Do you work on a Core i9?
- I most certainly do.
Piss moron! How can I track anything
on such a small cunt processor?
Someone has to go get my servers
and my monitors right now.
Or I'll never get started
on this fucking piss shit.
Tiny shitty fuck computer.
I won't listen to that arrogant diva!
How dare you, you fat pig?!
As if your equipment is so superior!
I'm not hauling that trailer around!
Pussy monitors!
What's going on, Dad?
It's MBT, isn't it?
Well spotted, Sirius.
MBT is just what it is.
- What's MBT?
- We'll get to that later.
We have to get some stuff
at Emmenthaler's place.
- Yup.
- Mentalization based therapy.
You do role play and simulations
to provoke an emotional response.
- That's a simplified explanation...
- Lennart!
Now listen up!
Something's completely off.
It works. Look.
Your dad's interacting.
Never mind the method.
It's the results that matter.
He's acting weirder than ever before.
What are they doing
with that computer in the barn?
Don't say another word to her
or do anything else. Is that clear?
She's afraid of gaining weight
because you're constantly
on her case.
- We're just helping her.
- She doesn't need help.
I've had over 4,000 hours of therapy,
so I think I know
more about it than you.
Do you feel like those 4,000 hours
have helped?
Says the man who snaps people's necks
but is afraid of a bit of Coca-Cola
and ice cream.
You need help, Markus. And there's
nothing embarrassing about that.
What's important now is that
you too start working on yourself.
- Why can't she believe in God?
- Stop.
She's trying to make sense of it all.
She misses her mother.
- I said stop.
- Maybe, but that's not how it works.
Once you agree to active therapy,
you can't just stop when it hurts.
I'm going to beat
the living daylights out of you both
if you don't stop now.
Not another word.
No, let me tell you an educational...
- No! I'm sorry.
- What are you doing?
- No, no, no!
- Hey, don't do that.
- Please don't.
- Stop that!
I'll be good, I promise.
No, no, no!
Don't do it. No.
Sorry! Sorry!
For fuck's sake.
- I...
- We don't have to talk about it.
- I'm not from Horsens.
Stop talking.
I don't want to hear it.
I've always lied about it.
I'm from Randers.
Is that them?
Let me see... it might be this one.
- Look at them. Is that them?
- Yes, that's him.
Get down!
No! Don't kill him!
Don't kill him.
He's seen us.
We'll take him with us.
- Are you going to kill me?
- Nobody's killing anyone here.
- Relax. What's your name?
- Bodashka lytvynenko.
Many call me Jens Ole,
and you can, too,
as much as you like.
No, why would we? We'll call you...
That thing you said first.
Do you have a cell phone?
If they know who I am,
I can't go back home.
You'll have to stay here for now.
- Shouldn't we all stay here tonight?
- Yes.
We also need to get some weapons
so we can defend ourselves.
Can you do the job
with Lennart's gear?
Yes. But it won't be pleasurable
with those monitors.
It's madness to not give us weapons
now and teach us how to shoot.
No weapons!
So I have to destroy my eyes
in a freezing fucking barn,
trying to find a huge amount of data
on a tiny, crap computer.
If I can't get my own
piece of revenge,
I'm not sure I want to be part of it.
All of this screams revenge.
I'm not lifting a finger
if I don't get weapons training
right here and now.
Okay... get the equipment up
and running, then I'll train you.
Find everything you can on all
the gang members, and focus on Kurt.
Okay. Let's just shoot some birds
for starters.
Or a fox. Can't we just shoot
one fox each and that's it?
- Yes. Just get to work.
- What about Bodashka?
My mom paid our au pair extra,
because she thought
the wage was way too low.
But that depends on how much
Bodashka will be working here.
Just the usual, I guess.
Thirty-seven hours, right, Markus?
Thirty hours per week is
the maximum for au pairs.
Thirty-seven hours
is very fine for me.
How much did you work
at the last place?
It was different.
Ten to twelve hours every day.
People are assholes.
- And how much did they pay you?
- Well...
I earned about
12,000 Euros per month,
but I only kept 250.
We'll say 30 hours, and if it ends up
being more, we'll pay extra.
- Won't you stay, Dad?
- Let him go, Mathilde.
It's important
that he's allowed to withdraw.
- Do you play chess, Mathilde?
- No.
But we can play Star of Africa.
We've played that a lot.
I had a colleague
who was called Star of Africa.
He was strangled New Year's Eve
by a regular client.
- Lennart?
- Yes.
Do you want to fuck me
in my ass before you go to sleep?
No.
No, thank you.
We have a long day
ahead of us tomorrow.
Thanks, but no thanks.
Okay. Good night.
Good night.
Lennart?
Thank you for saving me.
And thank you
for not fucking me in my ass.
Don't mention it.
Sleep tight, buddy.
- Good night, Emmenthaler.
- Good night, Otto.
Hi. Where's my Dad?
He's at morning therapy.
- In the barn?
- Yes.
Well, tell him I said hi
and have a nice day.
You're missing a button here.
I'll sew it tonight.
Wait.
There.
You're very, very beautiful.
- Don't forget lunch.
- Thanks.
- Have a nice school day.
- Thanks, bye.
Kurt "Tandem" Olesen.
Death sentence.
Kenneth "Turbot" Jensen.
Death sentence.
Noah "Monkey" Frandsen.
Death sentence.
Wouldn't it be easier to name
the ones not sentenced to death?
Anker Trier, Tim "Thrasher" Petersen
and Vitus "Porky" Clausen
are off the hook.
They all have small children.
Aren't we being too harsh?
That's 22 killings.
They tried to kill us.
They know who we are
and won't stop unless we kill them.
So now we're doing it
like we agreed on.
The moment they realize
they're under attack,
it'll be harder to get to Kurt.
It already is. He's never alone,
he's always got 10 men around him.
How about killing one of them
and making it look like an accident,
and then whack the rest
at the funeral?
There'll be women and children
at a funeral. We can't do that.
- What about their clubhouse?
- Lennart.
Move!
Even though the resolution
on these monitors is really poor,
you can make out how the clubhouse
is under constant surveillance
by the police and Danish
intelligence. It's impossible.
But I know where they are 24/7
and I'm tracking their cell phones
and emails.
We'll wait for a chance to get Kurt
when there's only
five or six men around him.
If it's bigger than that,
we can help out.
Especially after the extensive
weapons training we were promised.
The M10 is an old model.
It is made up of a lower receiver,
buffer and spring,
upper receiver and barrel, optical
sight, bolt carrier, firing pin,
cocking handle and magazine.
Start by putting
the buffer into the spring.
- I can't get it in.
- It's not as easy for you.
Put the spring
into the lower receiver.
Done!
You were drafted?
I wasn't. Look at me.
- How did you do that so fast?
- Well, it's got so few components.
- It was kind of self-explanatory.
- That's insane.
Can you do it again?
I just like assembling things.
Done! Second place.
I don't get this. When exactly
will we need to assemble a rifle?
Our lives could possibly
depend on it. But it's really nice.
What's it called?
It's called fuck you, Emmenthaler.
If I wanted to assemble stuff,
I'd have gone to Ikea.
My police source says the Ukrainian
fag's phone was found at exit 51.
We should just focus our energy
around exit 51.
Focus?
Find the Ukrainian and we find them.
Ulf Emmenthaler has two buddies.
They were all fired two weeks ago.
Lennart Gerner Nielsen
and this guy, Otto Hoffmann.
Otto Hoffmann has a retard arm.
Don't you think
they'll be a bit easier to find
than sitting near exit 51 waiting
for a Ukrainian fag to drive by,
- huh, Kenneth?
- Sure.
Then find that retard arm for me.
Check this out.
This is just like pizza
and then again not quite.
- Is that too much?
- Still too much.
- The queen is the strongest, right?
- Numerically, yes.
But strategically, it's the pawn.
But it differs from game to game, all
pieces can prove to be the strongest.
Chess is the only game in the world
where chance and luck
aren't a factor.
There are no dice, no jokers
or hidden elements.
Everything is right in front of us
and it is purely your own actions
that determine the result.
Here are some snacks for you.
- Will you take a photo of us?
- Sure. Go sit on the sofa.
Yeah.
- Can I make a video?
- Like this?
- We're rolling.
- Let me just put this guy...
- Is that...
- It's fine.
It looks like Noller and a group
of 7 members are meeting tonight
at a restaurant, Antorini.
It's near the docks.
The Turbot confirms that Kurt will be
there at 7 P.M. Noller's treat.
There's gonna be 12 of them.
Can you handle that many?
Otherwise, I can come with you.
Lennart and Otto also hit
quite a lot out in the forest.
We could get them
when they leave the restaurant.
Capture them in crossfire
here and there.
We won't get a better chance, Markus.
You're coming with me.
Neutrons are slightly heavier
than protons.
Had it been the other way around,
atoms wouldn't have existed.
And without atoms,
no life, no nothing.
- Let's go, Lennart.
- Right... where are we going?
I'll explain in the car.
Can't it wait?
Mathilde baked a cake.
Emmenthaler, now!
Evening therapy session for all.
Come along. You owe it to the team!
Dad, you can't grab him like that.
- What the hell are you doing?
- Why must you always...
Shut up, Mathilde!
Stay out of it! Let's go!
Markus, you can't speak to your
daughter like that. What's this?
- Weapons? What are you up to?
- Markus will explain in the car.
Lennart, hurry up!
What do we need weapons for?
Isn't it too dark to shoot now?
- We're not shooting anything.
- We're doing a crossfire. Be quiet.
This is crazy. Killing more people
will only get you shot or jailed.
Don't you give a damn about Mathilde?
Shut the fuck up.
- Otto, I wouldn't go there...
- It won't bring your wife back.
I'll stop the car
and break your nose.
Let's get this over with as a team.
So we can go home
and eat banana cake.
Precisely.
All I'm saying is she's dead...
- Won't we lack crossfire now?
- What the hell is his problem?
He's got plenty.
Right now it's probably that he's
lying unconscious in a bike Lane.
His own daughter died in a car crash
so he can be a bit touchy
when it comes
to father-daughter relationships.
Don't feel bad, it was years ago.
He drove into a tree.
That's also how he got the limp arm.
It was January 12, 2002.
He had a BAC of 0.092 and had
his driver's license suspended.
Got a fine of 7,200 dollars.
You also hack your friends' files?
No, no.
Otto told us.
He mentioned it a few times anyway.
And then we just read up
on the details.
He has a picture out in his home
of his wife and daughter.
You're basically asking for it,
flashing your private life like that.
Get ready.
- No, Lennart, you're staying here.
- Lennart isn't coming?
Who are those biker girls?
I don't believe it!
I thought you said they'd be alone.
That's what they wrote.
Someone must have brought ladies.
- Let's get back to the banana cake.
- Hang on.
You stay here.
Where's he going?
What the fuck are you doing, man?
Fuck, man!
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I couldn't.
I'm not good at that stuff.
You're good at it. I'm not.
It's okay.
No, it's not.
They're dead now. He's dead.
It isn't easy killing another man.
Especially not the first time.
No, no, no. I can't...
I don't want to be part of
it anymore, never again.
You won't have to. But try
to focus on why we're doing it.
Why are we doing it exactly?
What if the guy lying there didn't
have anything to do with...
Shut up! He did! They all did.
Think of what they've done.
Think of
all the lives they've destroyed.
Oh, dear God.
Should l... Emmenthaler?
Should I turn on the radio?
Would you like that?
Listen to some quiet radio?
There...
- Dad.
- Not now, honey. We're working.
It's just because you mentioned
that Otto guy with the retard arm.
- Like this?
- Yes.
- Who's Sirius Zen?
- Just some fag I'm following.
Don't know him.
He makes good recipes.
- Good morning.
- Good morning, sweetie.
Good morning.
What happened to you, Otto?
Did you do that?
You're sick.
It's fucking you who should be dead
and not mom!
Hi. I just came to say
your dad didn't do it. I fell.
Don't lie.
You really suck at it.
- You all do.
- Don't be angry with your dad.
Perhaps he doesn't always
do the right thing, but he's trying.
He really sucks at trying then.
That's fair. But he's not well.
No, I know.
Are those the events
leading up to the accident?
And it began with your bicycle
being stolen?
Yes, because if my bike hadn't been
stolen, it never would've happened.
My mom wouldn't have had to drive me,
and then it wouldn't have mattered
that the car couldn't start,
and we wouldn't have gone by train.
How does your dad calling
affect it all?
He said he wasn't coming home.
My mom got so disappointed
that she suggested a skip day
and that we go to the city.
You do know that each
of these incidents
has its own individual
course of events?
What do you mean?
I was fired, for example. So I took
an earlier train than usual.
But you must go all the way back
to when I learned
to offer my seat to a woman.
Track down the man
who taught me that.
And he has his own course of events.
All your incidents will have
their own threads
intertwining with other events
and other people's lives, not into
infinity but in a very big equation.
Not even the most powerful computers
in the world would currently be able
to process all your data,
and even though you're a bright girl
your human brain will never process
just a fraction
of that amount of data
and you will therefore never
be able to draw a useful conclusion.
It'll never, ever make sense.
It's a waste of time.
I know.
I've gone over it all a million times
to uncover some reason.
But there isn't any.
Yes, that's just it.
There's a centillion reasons.
But they won't help you.
I sometimes dream about
finding the guy who stole my bicycle.
I see him riding off on my bike,
and then I run after him
and catch him.
But I also realize that it isn't
his fault. It's nobody's fault.
It's just easier when
there's someone you can...
Get mad at.
Yes.
My mother had seven children,
but the youngest were hungry
and thin like matchstick.
We freeze when winter comes.
So my mother sells a child.
Then Palle took me to Germany.
He rented me out...
I am like city bike
that everyone can come and ride on.
But then we go home on vacation
and I meet you.
We came home just three days
before you kill him dead and save me.
That can't be right. Palle was
on the train the week before.
No, no train. We fly home.
But not three days before?
You must've been home
from Germany before that?
No... we landed Monday
and you all kill him Thursday.
I just have to check something.
Did I say something wrong?
Oh no.
No, no, no!
Oh no!
I'm home.
My beautiful children.
The country is beautiful
and green and flat like a fetir.
But the food was
the biggest disappointment.
- Dad had the worst sandwich ever.
- Worse than Grandma's?
The tuna was old and wet,
the bread was dry like desert sand
and I got a juice
that tasted like camel droppings.
I had to throw it all into the trash
and get McDonald's.
It was only off by 3.28%.
It's improbable anyone would look
that much like Kurt Olesen's brother.
I told you. The biometric threshold
hadn't been met.
- You just wanted it to be true.
- No, I didn't.
He was a trained electrical engineer
specializing in train components.
Statistically,
it's nearly impossible.
But it was just a coincidence.
You invented it, Otto.
You said you recognized him
from the train.
I thought I did.
I must have been too fixated on...
So it was just an accident.
I'm sorry, Markus.
Who was it, then?
What?
If it wasn't him, who is it then?
Who is it?!
You told me it wasn't an accident.
But it is him.
It is him.
It is him.
- Markus... Markus...
- It is...
Markus.
Breathe. Nice and easy.
What's going on? What's going on?
- Nice and easy, that's it.
- I'm scared.
- What's that?
- I'm scared.
I understand.
I understand very well.
Look me in the eyes.
She's dead. She's gone.
Yes, she's dead.
Breathe now. Come here.
Come here. There...
There is old Ukrainian legend
about coincidences.
It is about Liubava Vasilkovna
from Vitebsk
a beautiful princess
who was hunting bear
the morning after the first full moon
of the spring.
A huge bear attacks her
and bites her finger off
with her beloved diamond ring on it.
Very sad for her.
But then exactly 10 years later
the morning after
the first full moon of the spring
in the same dense forest,
in the same place
she goes hunting again.
And now she shoots a big, old bear.
And when they open
the bear's stomach,
there was no ring inside.
Nothing.
Okay.
Well...
Now it'll be really exciting to see
if the water starts boiling soon.
Why did you come here, Otto?
Because the police wouldn't help.
Or I think I came
because we traded seats.
Because I was the one
who should have died.
Then I saw Mathilde at the hospital
and she looked so helpless.
Lennart and Emmenthaler,
they just tagged along?
They don't have many friends.
I sometimes think people
with problems band together.
Just like fat people, so they look
less fat when they're all together.
It makes it easier to live with.
You also have some things
you need to learn to live with.
I don't know that I've got things
I need to learn to live with.
You have to learn to live
with the death of your wife.
Why?
You need to get proper help.
Nothing helps.
Nothing matters anymore.
Yes, but...
You have Mathilde.
And we never should've had her.
Before she came,
I at least still believed that
once we had kids,
everything would make sense.
You have a responsibility
toward your daughter.
Sure. You were so fucking responsible
around your daughter.
No.
I wasn't.
Because I was an idiot.
I only thought about myself.
But not a day goes by
that I don't wish...
That I could get
just one more chance...
To find her hairbrush for her or...
Discuss if she could have a dog.
Or get fed up with her
for leaving the milk out.
I haven't got anything
to be proud of.
But you do.
I look at you and Mathilde
and I wish I was you.
Maybe nothing matters anymore
but nothing does if you haven't
got a relationship with it.
You don't know Mathilde.
That's why you don't understand her.
You'll just have to accept that
it takes time before it makes sense.
It takes time.
But you have time.
So use it.
I'm sorry if I got angry
and raised my voice.
It's okay.
And I'm sorry about...
The nose thing.
- Hi.
- Sirius.
- Is that you?
- Yes.
No, that means "call you later”.
- Give me your hand.
- No!
Listen up. I'm gonna break
one of your fingers now
and then you'll tell me where
you took this video of Otto Hoffmann.
- Where, when...
- I'll tell you!
Don't break my finger.
It's two now,
because you interrupted me.
Please don't.
What do you want to know?
Now it's three,
because you're a snitch.
And you just made it four,
because you're a crybaby.
It's just a finger.
That's very much to the point.
It's a really good paper, Mathilde.
You could perhaps soften it a bit.
Run to your room
and hide under your bed.
No matter what,
just stay there, okay!?
Roll over!
- Is anyone hit?
- I got hit in the foot.
My shoulder... my side.
I am unhit.
- I'm unhit, too.
- Emmenthaler, get down.
I managed to dodge the bullet.
Pretty amazing actually.
Lennart, I need help. Come here.
The bag with the M10s is at
the foot of the stairs.
You're faster than me, go.
Do you see it?
- Why did you take them all apart?
- Never mind, throw them to me.
Hi there.
Soldier boy!
Come out into the light.
Soldier boy, come out into the light.
Come out into the light
or I'll fucking blow her head off.
On your knees and lose that shit.
And the one in your panties.
Let's take out the old fart.
This really sucks.
What the hell did we ever do to you?
Don't be scared, sweetie.
Everything will be okay.
There...
I'll call an ambulance.
Don't be scared.
Does it hurt?
No.
I'm just really cold.
They're coming now, Dad.
They're coming.
I should have listened to you.
I think I need help.
I'm sorry.
Dad...

I'm sorry.
Dad...

- Chess. Thanks a lot, Mathilde.
- You're welcome.
I really like it.

Can you do magic on that,
Emmenthaler?
I don't think so.
- What do you want me to play?
- Who gives a fuck?
Just any old song.
But what?
Just play something random.
I'll be damned if I'm listening

Easy now. Breathe.
You're in uniform
in the Tivoli Gardens.
- We're on the lawn.
- Yes.
There. I know you can do it.
