Episode 4
Thanks, that was nice of you. Go ahead.
You've sexted...with over 50 women this month.
And if we go back to last year, we're talking thousands of contacts.
Yes, there are...
a lot of women who like sex.
That girl you took to the hotel...
- She was only fourteen years old. - No, she said she was eighteen.
How many more of your sexual contacts have been underage?
Wait a minute. What others are you referring to?
None, of course.
That's illegal.
Like purchasing sex?
It's not a matter of purchasing
when two people who enjoy sex meet and have a good time together.
Ow. Ow!
It hurts! Ow!
Well, I'll have you know there are lots of people who...
like it rough.
I figured if I could scrape together a few thousand, I could take off.
- And go where? - Someplace warm.
I went to Mallorca with my last foster family.
Everything will be all right, Emelie.
Right now, we're just glad the police found you.
- Hi. Stella. - Hello.
So...my name is Anne Stokke-Larsen.
I'm from social services.
But where was the film recorded?
Well, like I said...
I don't know.
This is insane!
Caijsa Bergholm stepping in as interrogator at 10:36 AM.
I'd like to start off by saying thank you.
I'd never have become a cop if it hadn't been for you.
Oh?
You implemented gender quotas at the police academy.
That's how I got in.
My grades wouldn't have been enough otherwise...
but you introduced a system of extra merit scores for women.
So, thanks. You've done a lot for women, and not just on the force.
I respect that.
Er, okay. Great.
- What's this? - How does this relate to my client?
This is Nicole Hauglund.
She disappeared in April 2005.
The film of your client and Nicole is the last sign of life we have of her.
Stop. We need to take a break.
Are you saying that I killed her?
Is that it? Is that what you mean?
Surely you know it's totally...
- It's totally... - Totally...?
We had sex. Completely consensual. She liked it rough.
But that I supposedly killed her...
Never.
Can we go even further back?
Is that so?
There's a policewoman in the bathroom going through our dirty laundry!
I'll get back to you. Bye.
I'm sorry that we have to do this.
A withdrawal was made from your savings account in 2005.
250,000 Kronor. Do you remember why?
- Ludvig made a bad deal. - What deal?
I don't know. Mutual funds, I think.
What do you think will happen to Ludvig now?
Will he be able to keep his job?
The gun cabinet in your bedroom. Is there a key to it?
Yes.
Do you recognize this man?
Yes. It's Berg, the policeman who died.
- Did you know him? - Yes...we'd met.
- Where? - At work?
When was the last time you saw him?
I don't know. You're always running into people in the building.
And you've also spoken on the phone.
Twice on September 28th, and again on October 3rd.
Yes, that sounds about right.
- What did he want? - I don't remember.
Nothing at all?
I'd imagine he wanted advice about something.
- Did he get it? - I suppose so.
Could I get another glass of milk?
Or maybe a cup of coffee?
- Sure thing. - Thanks.
- As soon as you start talking. - What is it you want me to tell you?
- Well, what? - Here's what I think.
Conny blackmailed you...
using the film of you and Nicole.
But you'd already paid once in 2005 and didn't want to do it again.
So, you ran him over with the car.
You took him to a field where you tortured him...
to make sure that you'd gotten all the copies of the video.
Then you shot him dead...
took his keys, and went to the apartment and cleaned up.
The next day, you went back to keep an eye on the police investigation,
and double-check that you hadn't missed anything.
Seriously, what is this?
Peter saw you take the USB stick from Conny's apartment.
What were you doing the night Conny was murdered?
We know you weren't at home.
I was with a woman.
Let me guess, you don't have her contact information?
Conny had the film of you and Nicole.
And Veronica saw you and Conny argue the day before he was shot
with the same type of rifle we found in your gun cabinet.
Okay...
Conny...was blackmailing me.
Because of the film. That much you've got right.
But Conny was...a lush.
A drunk.
He accidentally sent a text message to me from the wrong phone.
When I found out that it was him...
I went to see him and told him to go to hell.
That's when Veronica saw me.
Later, when I heard what had happened to him,
I went to his apartment to look for the film. Which I found.
And which you've now obviously gotten your hands on.
I had nothing to do with his death.
What a great explanation.
And it's the truth.
I'm sitting here falsely accused of murder, having been blackmailed.
If anyone's a victim here, it's me.
Maybe we should talk a bit about Urban as well?
- Excuse me? - Urban who?
Urban Wendel, my brother.
The first person you murdered.
What kind of fucking amateurs are you?
Sorry, sorry.
No, but...
Could I have a cup of coffee?
Thanks.
That'd be nice.
Peter!
Jenny Eklund? This is Barbro and my name is Peter, Peter Wendel.
We'd like a word about Conny Berg, who you had contact with...
Peter Wendel? Are you related to Urban Wendel?
Yes, he was my brother.
Come in.
Simon, go to your room.
I...used to work on Malmskillnadsgatan.
Before.
That's when I got to know your brother.
He wasn't like the other cops we had to deal with.
- How do you know Conny? - Same place.
He called out of the blue a week ago,
asking if I recognized a john from back then.
A john? What john?
A cop.
Why did Conny want to talk to you about him?
So, you're...saying Ludde did that to you?
When was this?
2012.
Would you be willing to testify against him?
No.
I've managed to put it behind me.
And I have my son. He doesn't know anything about my previous life.
I see...well, thanks for coming down anyway.
Jenny...
When Conny talked to you, did he mention my brother?
No. Why would he have done?
Peter, I don't know how long we can hold Ludde. We need more on him.
- Why are we going back there now? - Because I haven't been there.
So, the car stopped down there?
Yes. And he ran up here before he was shot.
Oh.
Coming?
Yeah.
Ow! Stop! It hurts!
Okay, thanks, Jorma. Bye.
The video of Nicole and Ludde was recorded over another film.
Another couple having sex.
- In the same apartment? - Yes. Same bed, same wallpaper.
Just one more thing before we take a break.
Where is the apartment where the film was recorded?
I've already told you I don't know. In Stockholm.
South side, north side, who knows? And she's not the only one that...
That you've tortured?
Not getting anywhere with Ludde?
Where are you going?
What if what Ludde says is true?
- What do you mean? - Maybe he didn't beat her to death.
We don't even have a motive.
You know what? You can wait here.
Yeah, but...
I have to be allowed to voice a thought.
MATERNAL HEALTH CARE
Shit.
All I'm saying is the video isn't enough.
It's circumstantial evidence, but it doesn't tie him to the crime.
You talk about motive.
Did it occur to you that what's in the video might be the motive?
He enjoyed hurting her.
Maybe he accidentally killed her.
Or he got off on that, too.
Exactly. That's what I mean.
We don't know.
But everything points to Nicole selling sex.
Maybe you didn't know her as well as you think.
No, you think you know someone, but you can be dead wrong.
Caijsa! Nice to see you. Hi.
And you must be the father. Ritva, hi. Welcome.
- Have a seat. - I can wait in the car.
- How are you? Are you still as tired? - I feel a bit better, actually.
And little Kerstin? Is she still as active?
Kerstin? Is that her name?
Yes.
It sounds a bit like an old lady, doesn't it?
My mother's name was Kerstin.
Let's start by having a listen, shall we?
Let's see if anyone's home.
Is that Kerstin?
Wow!
Wow.
Here. Everything we found in Conny's apartment.
I don't know...
What's that?
- You mean the long, thin one? - It looks like the key to a safe.
There was no safe in Conny's apartment.
Then maybe it's on the boat.
- The boat? - Yeah.
Why else would you get a bill from a Marina if you don't have a berth?
Draget's Marina
- What will happen to Emelie now? - First off, she'll return to Vilan.
- But she's terrified of that place. - There's nothing else available.
We can try to arrange a transfer, but it'll take at least a few months.
Now what?
Can you open up there?
Be careful.
- Do you have a flashlight? - No!
What?
Wait, I've got one.
- Someone's been here recently. - What?
Come on, search the place.
Don't look at me that way!
- Turn that off! - I'm trying!
Peter...
Good. Keep hold of it.
Can you find a chisel or something? I need to open this hatch.
- A spoon or fork, something sharp... - Here. Maybe this will work.
Where are you going?
Are you going to Vilan?
You can't! You can't leave me there!
It's just temporary. In a few weeks maybe...
A few weeks? I'll be fucking dead in a few weeks!
I'm sorry, Emelie, but the staff...
The staff? They totally suck!
I told you, they don't give a damn about us! Why won't you listen?
There's nothing I can do.
There is nowhere else.
Hi, Kicki? Stella Olofsson here.
I was driving Emelie back to you,
but I stopped at a red light and she jumped out and ran off.
Can you notify the police?
It's only for a few days.
- And she's wearing my clothes? - Yes, hers were dirty.
But Vera is supposed to be staying the night.
Hi, Emelie!
You can't tell anyone she's here.
Mom, this is crazy!
You can't just drag her home like a lost puppy!
We have room, and it's just for a few days.
- What do you think Ante will say? - Not so loud!
I don't care if she hears me! It's my home and I can say what I think!
Knock it off!
Emelie, can you go to Jasmine's room?
Hi. Is this a bad time? It sounded like you were arguing.
No, it was just Jasmine.
Listen, I need to know if a certain Nicole Hauglund
appears in your records at MIKA.
I can't do that. Our records are confidential.
Yeah, I know, but it's about the murder of a young woman.
You'll have to go through the normal channels, Caijsa. File a request...
- We don't have time. - You'll just have to make time.
Goodbye.
- Did you say Hauglund? - Yes.
Nicole Hauglund.
She was here three times between 2002 and 2005.
Okay...
She started prostituting herself after moving away from home.
The final entry...
She came in with genital injuries and covered in bruises and cuts.
She was told to go to the hospital, but refused.
- When was this? - The morning of April 18th, 2005.
What?
The day after the film was recorded.
Nicole came here after she was assaulted by Ludde.
If the date in the journal is correct, Ludde didn't kill Nicole.
He went abroad on the 18th.
- Hello! - Hello.
Come see.
I know I shouldn't, but I couldn't help myself.
Isn't it weird how just because things are small,
they instantly become cute?
Hang on...
They're so adorable!
Oh, I spoke to Karl today about parental leave just so he's prepared.
I said I wanted at least ten months, since adopted babies can...
I'm having a baby.
I know! Did you just realize that?
No, I mean I'm having a biological child.
The baby in Caijsa's belly...it's mine.
- What, you...? - It just happened.
It was only the one time.
When we were working in Hallstavik.
I was asleep at the hotel and she came in...
She was as drunk as hell.
It's crazy.
And I'm so fucking sorry it happened.
I had no idea she was pregnant.
I have absolutely no feelings for her. And I never did.
What is it?
What?
Does she know what she's having?
A girl.
Kerstin.
Quite the business venture.
Film them and then blackmail them.
Oh, well...
- Try this one. - Who is it?
"Bengt".
Can I get a ride with you? I don't have the car today.
No? Yeah, sure. I'll just go get...
Peter!
Yeah?
Will you be long? I think Stella has dinner ready.
No...no, we can go.
Do you think he wanted to get caught?
- Who? - Ludde. He was so sloppy.
All the girls he was in contact with.
Someone was bound to recognize him sooner or later.
Yeah, maybe so.
Thanks for the ride.
Sure.
Well...I'll see you tomorrow.
Sure thing.
Bye.
