Darkness: Those Who Kill (2019–…): Season 3, Episode 6 - Afsnit 6 - full transcript

- Has anyone new moved in?
- No. Nobody has moved in.

I've been gone for four months.
There hasn't been anyone?

- Not anyone who's paid rent.
- Stop.

Don't you wanna know
why I came home? Huh?

Haven't you missed me at all?

I've missed you.

Stop it! Go downstairs to your room.
I need to work on this.

And don't slam the door.

Alberte Hvilsted, 27 years old,
spent the past four months in Herning -

- working as the carer of
Victor Bertelsen, who died on her shift.

She vacated her rented room the following
day and nobody knows where she is.



- Her phone is off.
- How did Victor die?

He suffocated
while suffering from pneumonia.

Victor had many physical disorders
and his lungs were impaired.

- Pneumonia could kill him.
- The motive could be financial.

She might have killed other victims.

That's why I invited Louise Bergstein
to profile the killer.

- We know you, Louise. Welcome.
- Thank you.

Female serial killers
usually fall into this one category.

Women from the healthcare sector
who kill their patients.

Many of these murders
may remain undetected -

- since their victims
by definition are sick or weakened.

- Why do they do it?
- There are three different types.

The ones driven by the excitement.

They're narcissistic
and love being the centre of attention.



Many suffer from hero syndrome
and get off on saving the victim.

The second type
wants no attention at all.

They kill in secret with nobody present.
The motive could be financial.

And it might start with a robbery,
but evolve into murder.

- But why?
- They like controlling other people.

- And the third?
- They're also financially driven.

But they mainly kill
to cover up their robberies.

Which group would Alberte belong to?

If the motive is financial,
it's group two or three.

Thank you, Louise.
What do you need?

I need help figuring out -

- Alberte's whereabouts
over the past years.

Have there been other suspicious deaths
amongst her patients?

Okay. You'll get two officers
in addition to you and Bertram.

And we'll recap
tomorrow night. Okay?

Great. Thank you.

LOST - THOSE WHO KILL

Since Victor Bertelsen
lived in a different district -

- Annie wants that district
to spend money on the investigation.

Thanks.

By the way,
thanks for giving me Maria's address.

- I know you took a great risk.
- That's fine.

- I visited her.
- Okay?

- How is she?
- She's doing well.

She's in law school
and temps at a law firm.

- Did you talk about Sebastian?
- A little.

She says she's moved on.

Are you just gonna sit there all day?

Go help in the store.

Okay.

Haven't you missed me at all?

- Hi!
- Bad time?

No, no.

What's up?

We tracked Alberte's cellphone
to her previous address in North Jutland.

There seems to be a pattern.

She leaves a couple of months
at a time to go work somewhere.

She lives at Breidablik.

- What?
- That co-living farm.

- Where Bjørn and Maria lived.
- Exactly.

They were there at the same time.
I just didn't see her there.

I went there looking for Bjørn -

- and to interview their leader,
Jon Simonsen.

Would you be willing to talk to Maria?

She might know something about Alberte.

Why does Alberte leave the farm?

- Yes, I can leave tomorrow.
- Or you can just call her.

I have to go to Copenhagen anyway.

Maria just can't know
that Alberte is a murder suspect.

- Yes... I know.
- But, I had to mention it.

They asked for you at dinner.

It's worth 200,000.

Maybe more.

We have to wait a few months.

But then we can sell it online.

There are buyers in the US.

What about the owner?

He won't notice it's missing.

And he won't report it stolen.

- Because...
- Right. I get it.

You did well.

You did miss me.

Hi, how can I help you?

- Is Maria Bech available?
- Yes, she's right there.

- Thanks.
- You're welcome.

- Hi.
- Hey.

What, uh, are you doing here?

I'd like to ask you a question.
As part of an investigation.

Okay.

It's about Alberte Hvilsted
from Breidablik.

- Can we go somewhere else to talk?
- Yes.

Let's go downstairs.

I work with Frederik Havgaard again.

Okay.

He's working on robbery cases
at different nursing homes.

It's possibly organized crime
and Alberte might be involved.

It's just a suspicion, but do you know
if she's stolen anything before?

When she was 19, she got a job -

- at a nursing home
pretty close to Breidablik.

They liked her a lot.

But suddenly she quit, and supposedly
she was fired for stealing jewelry.

Was there any proof?

No, but after that,
she travelled away for work.

Has she stolen anything
from other work places?

Yeah, maybe. I mean...

She lives by her own rules.

And she always wanted
to be the one in control.

Were you afraid of her?

A little.

She's five years older than me
so we didn't really hang out.

But she's... cold as ice.

She only cares
about herself and Jon.

- Jon?
- Jon Simonsen. He...

Uh...

Jon is one of the founders
of Breidablik.

Back then...

And he and Alberte are together.

Or I don't know if they still are.

I haven't talked to anyone
over there in three years.

- Hi, sweetie!
- Hi!

- Did you have a meeting?
- No, Louise just came by.

- This is my boyfriend, Ulrik.
- Sorry, hi.

Louise.

- How do you know each other?
- From Singapore.

Okay.

Louise was our au pair.

Oh, nice!

- And you haven't seen each other since?
- No, we haven't.

I just wanted to say hi.

Well, I gotta go.

See you later.
It was nice meeting you.

- Singapore?
- Yes.

I lived there with my parents
who died in an accident when I was 18.

And I have no siblings.

- That's what you told him?
- I've told everyone that.

- It's better that way.
- Why can't he know about you?

I'm no longer that person.

I know things have changed
and you seem happy -

- but your past will always
be part of who you are.

Just like Sebastian is.

Sebastian is dead.

He is.

- Bye.
- No, Maria!

Don't contact me again.

Put that out. Or go outside.

Who's that?

That's Patricia.
She moved in two months ago.

- Where does she live?
- Can you take this?

- Where?
- In the railroad car.

Who is Patricia?

She moved here a few months ago.

- She lives in the railroad car?
- Yes, she can't afford rent.

Oh, why not?

She quit her job
to get away from her boyfriend.

So she doesn't pay rent at all?

Can we agree that Breidablik
needs people who pay rent with money?

Not a fucking freeloader like that.

I decide what Breidablik needs.

You should go to your room
until you know how to behave.

- Hi.
- Hi.

It's a shame it looks like that.
The owner died a while back.

And I guess
the new owners don't care.

Yeah, sailing was more
my Dad's kinda thing.

Are you Klaus's daughter?

I'm so sorry.

I had no idea Klaus had any children.

- Lasse.
- Louise.

But you're right. I've neglected it.
And I should probably sell it.

- Maybe I can help you find a buyer.
- That'd be great.

I talked with your dad quite a lot.
When he was on the boat.

But he never sailed out.
He just didn't have the strength.

Damn disease.

- My Dad died of a heart attack.
- Right, but he also had cancer.

Always in and out of the hospital.

He knew what was coming.

But... You didn't know that?

Lasse?

Just leave your number
in the club house on your way out.

- Thanks.
- Then we'll find you a buyer.

POLICE

Alberte is dating one of the founders
of the co-living farm. Jon Simonsen.

- What else did Maria say?
- That she's ruthless.

She was fired from a local nursing home
because she had stolen jewelry.

We talked to her previous colleagues.
They suspect her of robbery.

Jewelry and some petty cash.

When they reported it
she had left already.

So why does she suddenly
steal such a large sum?

And why kill for it?

Maybe she's the type
who starts getting off on it.

The more likely scenario is
that she didn't plan the murder -

- but got tempted to sell the car
when Dagmar died.

And that's all you can prove.

Is there a financial motive
connected to Victor Bertelsen?

- No, there's not.
- Right. Okay.

And that murder
isn't in our district anyway.

I can't use our manpower on that.

What if we call her for an interview?
Would she confess under pressure?

No, I don't think so.
On the contrary. She'll continue.

She knows we have no evidence.

You can press charges
for the car robbery. That's it.

What if I get the northern district
to take over the investigation?

Why?

To follow the money. Find the motive.
Why did she start killing?

A couple of days.
Just a couple of days.

I expect you both back by Monday.

Yes. Promise.

CO-LIVING AT BREIDABLIK

Good morning.

Who are you?

I'm Alberte.

You were at the store yesterday.

I live in the main house.

With Jon.

Why haven't I seen you before?

I was travelling.

But now I'm home.

I'm going deer hunting.

It's illegal.
But they're trespassing.

So we can do as we please.

They weren't invited.

Would you mind leaving?

Jon told me you had problems
with your ex. Did he hit you?

- No.
- Then what?

He, uh, didn't want it to be over.

I hate it when people don't get that.

But... don't you think
he gets it by now?

Jens Bjerg. Welcome.

- Please, have a seat.
- Thanks.

So, you're in Jutland now?

- That's great.
- Well, so far with limited success.

Just transfer up here.

Bertram is in Herning
looking into Victor Bertelsen.

Has she stolen from patients before?

She stole 80,000 last year.
So we need to check her finances.

- And Breidablik's.
- Right.

What do you know about the farm?

The co-living space was founded in 2002
by Jon Simonsen and four friends.

According to their website.

But there's nothing
about current ownership.

Jon Simonsen cooperated three years ago.
Should we talk to him?

No. Because Alberte is his girlfriend.

What's the alternative?

I could talk to him.
He doesn't know me.

I know it's not procedure.

But maybe he'll talk about Alberte.

Not a bad idea.

- Alberte is playing hooky.
- Is she now?

Simon saw her leave
with the rifle this morning.

She was at the railroad car.

- And now Patricia has left.
- She left?

Well, she said goodbye earlier.

Alberte had asked her to leave.

Or... gave the order.

Do something.
She's out of control.

I'll talk to her.

I'll talk to her!

I promise.

Here you go.

That's 35, please.

Thank you.

Hi. These are really nice.
Did you grow them?

Yes. Not these ones, though.
But they're delicious.

Just peel them and steam them.
That's all.

There.

Is it possible to talk
to Jon Simonsen?

Yes, he's out back. Just walk that way.

Right. Thanks a lot.

- Jon Simonsen?
- Yes. Do I know you?

No, I got your name from the website.
Louise.

- How can I help you?
- Well...

My boyfriend and I are thinking about
moving to the country.

Yeah?

- This sounds really stupid.
- No, not at all.

It was always my dream.

But it's overwhelming to do it
just the two of us -

- so we're considering joining
an established community.

- Do you have any children?
- No.

Where's your boyfriend hiding?
Afraid to show himself?

- He stayed back home in Kolding.
- Okay.

You drove up here on your own?

- You don't mind moving this far away?
- No, not at all.

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

That's exciting.

- Do you want a tour?
- Yeah.

Alberte sold the car
for 80,000 on March 7th.

Then she bought a horse
from Breidablik for that exact amount.

- A horse?
- Yes.

They have no horses.
But she paid Breidablik.

You mean Jon Simonsen.
It's one and the same.

Breidablik is a company
owned solely by Jon Simonsen.

- But they're co-living.
- Well, he has tenants.

Everything belongs to Jon.

We were five friends
buying the farm together.

None of us were from around here.
But here we got the most for our money.

It's crazy that 20 years
have passed so fast.

Everything was falling apart back then.

The main house was very neglected.

In the beginning we used
some old houses as living quarters.

We have stables there now.

We knew nothing about farming.
It's a miracle we managed to survive.

- It was hard work?
- Yes. But our passion got us through.

And the dream to build this place.

A farm based on sustainability
and a community welcoming all people.

We wanted to improve the world.

- Did you succeed?
- Well, we're still here.

Although you have jobs outside,
you'd have work duties here, okay?

- Yeah.
- Great.

We have our own apartments,
but we eat together five nights a week.

And we have farm meetings,
activities and all sorts of fun things.

Belonging to a commune appeals to me.

I sense
this is mostly your dream.

Maybe it is.

I've met many people
who dream about this.

Usually it's not about
where they want to go -

- but what they want to leave behind.

So...

- How long have you been together?
- Three years.

Are you sure you're looking
for a place for both of you?

- Is it that obvious?
- Yes.

- Hi.
- Hi.

Wanna stay for dinner?
You can meet the others.

I'd love to.
But I need to get home.

My boyfriend doesn't know I'm here.

Ah. Right.

- I'll be in touch.
- Cool.

- Thanks for the tour!
- Anytime.

You can move in fast if you need to.

He won't need to know.

- Okay?
- Okay.

Good.

- Drive carefully.
- Thanks.

- Hey, babe.
- Hi!

- I got it all!
- The gluten-free bread for Silje?

- Everything.
- Perfect.

And... I know you don't approve...

- How about wine?
- Yeah, but...

- Tobias and I like these.
- Are they getting serious?

- He and Silje?
- Yeah.

I think so.

Don't you want
to invite someone for tomorrow?

- Maybe someone from school?
- No.

- How about some old friends?
- No.

- How about Louise?
- She's not a friend.

And... she lives in Jutland.
It's inconvenient.

- But you gotta have someone.
- I don't, Ulrik!

Not in Copenhagen.

I apologize for being a leach
on your old friends.

He showed me around.
He seems determined.

The co-living is a fraud.
He's the sole owner.

And his economy is bad.

Breidablik has been in the red
for the past three years.

And the residents have dropped
from 35 to 22, lowering his rent income.

- Hi. Bertram Beier.
- Hi. Jens. Welcome.

I got it. Alberte's motive.
Victor Bertelsen collected stamps.

- Stamps?
- Yes, on a high level.

He traded online. Two weeks ago
he made a huge investment. This...

- It's worth 27,000 dollars.
- That?

Yes. It was shipped to his home address,
and it arrived five days ago.

So it should be in his safe.

But it's not. I searched his home
and only found the box.

- Not the stamp.
- Because Alberte took it?

Probably.

Jon said I could move in anytime.
I could go there tonight.

Jon would know if Alberte stole it.
Maybe he even asked her to get money.

That would explain why she's suddenly
stealing those big amounts.

It's worth a try.

Should I just not care about it?
Huh?

Should I?

You take in these fucking whores
when I'm gone.

I can't.
