Roslund Hellström: Box 21 (2020–…): Season 1, Episode 3 - Episode #1.3 - full transcript

Where are Customer 17's things?

You have to tell him.
What if Janus comes?

-Get out of the car.
-Anni!

-Jochum Lang.
-Do you have anything on him?

-He got a contract.
-On whom?

His name is Sam Shirazi.

Maybe we should keep in touch.

So it doesn't end like it
usually does. What do you think?

Sam has an apartment at Lönnen.
Make sure Jochum finds out.

-What's that?
-Things I want you to buy.

-Lidia, who owns you?
-Nobody.



-Aren't you going to take him in?
-He hasn't done anything.

-You can't let him do something.
-You don't need to do this, Jochum.

My cousin's got work for me
in Australia.

Get down on the ground!

-Go to the wall!
-What are you doing?

Now!

Take the gun!

En garde!

It came? Let me see.

-What do you need a sword for?
-It's Astrid's foil.

She gave up basketball,
so she needs to do something else.

-Fencing?
-Yes.

She doesn't know yet.

How are you planning
to get her to go?



I guess I'll have to negotiate.

Negotiate?

Yes, I'm sure.

We found out a little while ago.

Karlberg called.

Jochum called Micke
and said he killed Sam.

God damn it, Ewert.

We could have prevented it.
What do we do?

Find out if Sam's sister saw them.
I'll question Jochum.

-Push "up"!
-What's going on? Hey?

-What are you doing?
-Calm down.

-What's going on?
-A young girl with a gun. My class!

-They're tied up.
-How many?

-Six.
-Where are they?

-In the morgue.
-Thanks. You can go up.

This is Mariana Hermansson.
We might have a hostage situation.

-We have to do something.
-What can we do?

We can't just sit here.

SOS 112, what's the emergency?

-I have taken people in hostage.
-Where are you?

-At hospital. In the morgue.
-What do you...

Don't come near. If you do, I start
to kill them. Do you understand?

Yes, it's understood. And I will put
you through to a police officer, OK?

I'm in contact
with the hostage taker.

Put her through.

Lidia...

Who is this?

It's me. Mariana.

My "big sister"?

-You've got my gun.
-Yeah.

-What are you planning to do?
-Get what I want.

What do you want?
Tell me and I will help you.

I will. But first I need to be sure
you won't do anything.

I give you my word.

Don't you try to get in. No one
touches this door. Understand?

I'll fix that.

Are you sure that we can't just solve
it right now before anyone gets hurt?

If I see the smallest move,
somebody's gonna get hurt.

I already promised you that.

You haven't told me
what it is that you want.

You'll see.

Please...

Lidia, I don't think
you want to do this.

You have no idea what I want.

Where is he?

-Who?
-You know who.

Sam Shirazi.

In Australia.

-He's on his way there.
-He's dead.

I know that you killed him.

You do?

I know what you're capable of.

Do you remember my wife,
Anni Grens?

I did my time for that.

Eight months.

For the lives of two people.

She was pregnant with our child.

Has she said what she wants?

We must keep away,
or she'll start killing hostages.

-We must get Tobias here.
-Yes.

Fencing is an exciting sport.

That no one my age does.

At your age, I was regional champion
It was a small region, but still.

The idea is to work out
what your opponent is thinking.

I'm busy enough
with my own thoughts.

-One more hour on your cell phone.
-For one hour of fencing?

-Yes.
-Come on.

When you get older, you'll say:
"At least he made me fence."

To my therapist, yes.

OK, I'll do it.
If I can turn out the lights at ten.

Nine-thirty.
Sleep deprivation lowers your IQ.

A quarter to,
or you can sell that thing online.

-OK.
-Good.

She's her father's daughter.

-Hi, Ewert.
-We have a hostage situation.

-Where?
-The morgue at Löwenströmska.

Get here fast.

Hi.

Chief negotiator Tobias Nordwall
just arrived at the hospital.

We are seeing an escalation
in the hostage situation

that we have been reporting from.

A number of medical students and
their teacher are being held hostage

by an unknown perpetrator.

The hostages are held in the morgue
at Löwenströmska Hospital.

This is police inspector
Gunnar Ledin.

We have searched...

You're not allowed to smoke here.
Lucian told you.

Is something wrong?

Is there a problem?

-How many?
-Six.

Five students
and their anatomy professor.

They were having a lecture
when she arrived.

SWAT is in position.

-But they can't approach.
-Lidia was very clear about that.

-Lidia?
-Lidia Amarei, from the apartment.

-The Romanian covered in blood?
-Yes.

How could she take hostages?

With my gun.

I thought her heart had stopped.
She couldn't even stand up.

-Has she made any demands?
-That we keep our distance.

Has she done
anything like this before?

No idea.

Does she have a criminal record?
Political or religious connections?

-We don't have much.
-You must have investigated her.

Not enough.

Show me which phone I should use.

Thanks.

Stand up.

-Do you want me to help you?
-Easy, Klara!

-You're bleeding.
-Shut up!

But I just want to help you.
We're doctors!

You want to help me?

Do as I say. OK?

Go to that room.

Look, they're rich kids and doctors.
You can get a lot of money for them.

But me, I'm nothing.

I could give you some advice.
You know, as it happens,

-I'm also an old kidnapper.
-Shut up.

I talk when I'm nervous.
Either release me or hear me talking.

-Or I can kill you.
-You can't. You know, I'm like a cat.

-I have seven lives.
-They've got nine lives.

You see? You already like me.
So, why don't you release me?

Hi.

My name is Tobias Nordwall.
I work as a negotiator.

You come to me and we talk.

If you do that, I release them all.

-You want me to replace the hostage?
-Y es. You have 20 minutes.

-Lidia...
-No, don't try to buy time.

My time is not for sale. No more.

Do as I say...

or I will kill one of them.

We have to stay calm.

In 20 minutes,
one of us will be dead.

How are we supposed to keep calm?

What does she gain
by exchanging the hostages for you?

She gets rid of them.

-People she doesn't want to hurt.
-Then it's all empty threats.

We don't know that.
What if she shoots someone?

-We have to assume she's serious.
-Exactly.

We can't underestimate her.

When I talked to her, I felt it.

She thinks several steps ahead.
She has a plan.

If the exchange is part of a plan,
we can't accept it.

How long do we have left?

Fourteen minutes.

You're the highest ranking
officer here.

-Call her again.
-And say what?

That she has to give us more
before we do as she says.

Try again.

-Ewert? Farima Shirazi is here.
-Who?

Sam's sister.

Can you deal with it?

When she opens the door,
we all get up and overpower her.

How? By biting her?

-Klara is right.
-What should we do, then?

Just sit here
and wait for one of us to die?

We have to assume
it's just a strategic threat.

You can't threaten to kill someone
and then not.

That makes you a wimp.

But this will all go swimmingly.

Which parameters
bring you to that conclusion?

As long as you're with me,
the parameters are on your side.

Trust me, I know.

He came to see me before surgery.

Have you seen
or heard from him since then?

No. Has something happened?

We're not sure.

I thought he was just
making things up, as usual.

No! Please don't hurt her!

One man, come.

-Take her. She tried to hurt you.
-I said one man.

It's like "Paradise Hotel."

Sorry.

-It has to be you.
-Me?

-Why do you say that?
-He's the oldest.

-I have kids.
-I want to have kids.

Come on!

OK, I'll do it.

My sister is a doctor too.
People like her and you are needed.

You're also needed. We're all needed.

Still nothing.

Time's up.

This is a message
from the other side.

If you want to see
this gorgeous face again,

please do as she says.

I think this girl is serious.

Was that him? Sam Shirazi?

-Did you know that he was here?
-No.

Please, don't shoot me in the face.

Please.

-What's happening over there?
-It sounded like gunfire.

-Should we hold?
-Yes, hold.

Something is going on by the door.

It looks like a body.

Check for signs of life.

A bomb! Retreat!

Go down there
and see if you can help.

That's Sam's sweater.

Hold on, Farima!

-Karlberg must have lied to you.
-Or Jochum lied to him.

It's our fault he died!

How could we know
that he'd end up a hostage?

He wouldn't have been down there
if we'd done our job!

Lidia?

Now you have ten minutes
to make the right decision.

I release three hostages.
You come in, I release the rest.

-So you found him?
-Yes.

Pieces of him, at least.

According to the police,
the hostage situation has escalated.

We have reports of an explosion
in the morgue.

At least one person
is feared to be dead.

Shit!

That was our on-site reporter,
Camilla Andersson.

We will continue
our coverage of the...

-Alex.
-For Christ's sake! You scared me!

Sorry. I didn't mean to scare you.

-Why are you here?
-To see you.

OK, now you've seen me.

Nice place you've got.
Is it doing well?

Have you been spying on me?

No... Maybe a little bit.

-I wanted to see how you were.
-I'm fine.

And that's how I like it, so goodbye.

Alex, I'm not that good with words...

Don't say anything, then.

-Can't we go for a cup of coffee?
-Is that all you have to say?

"Go for a cup of coffee"?

Yes, for starters.

And I'm sure there's so much more.

If you've been spying on me,
you should know that you're screwed.

-What do you mean?
-Rafael.

-Have you met someone?
-Yes.

-We live together.
-I see.

I'm happy for you.

You look really happy.

But, you know...

Can't we go for a coffee anyway?

-If it's OK with Rafael.
-I'm sure he's fine with it.

But I'm not.

Tell the people upstairs
to be ready for the hostages.

Tobias, hold on.

Would she really shoot someone
and blow up the body

just to exchange
the hostages for you?

Apparently, yes.

-But why?
-That's what we're going to find out.

Whatever the reason,
she's made sure we're listening.

We wouldn't have if she hadn't
given us proof that she's serious.

Ewert...

We called her bluff, and she won.

Won?

She'll do life
for first-degree murder.

She probably factored that in.
We don't have any alternatives.

Unless we stand here waiting
while she kills another person.

Lidia?

I'll come to you.

Damn weather.

-It's impossible to look good.
-Yeah.

Give me two seconds.

Let's test the sound.

I'm going to ask for
more hazard pay.

Sounds good.

-Hi, honey.
-Hi. How's it going?

Do you remember the poor girl
that got beat up?

Don't worry, but she's the one
who's taken hostages.

I have to go in.

-You?
-I know, honey.

Tell Astrid that I'll take her
to fencing next time.

OK.

I love you.

I love you, too.

-Is Dad not coming?
-He'll be a bit late today.

-Be careful.
-Always.

I'll go over, show myself,
she'll release them, and I'll go in.

You don't intervene,
except on my orders.

Understood.
In position. Team Two, with me.

Three hostages are on their way out.

Hold on. That's Sam.

OK, get out.

Four, I repeat,
four more hostages are leaving.

-That makes seven released.
-Yes. Six hostages, plus Sam.

Tobias, she dressed up a corpse
and blew it up.

Lidia, can I call you that?

You don't want to hurt anyone.

In fact, I know
you haven't hurt anyone.

And that's good.

I know what you've been through,
and I'm sorry for that.

Let me know what I can do
to make it up to you.

Can your colleagues see me?

-Yes.
-And hear you?

Did you understand
what I just told you?

You can be compensated by me.

You haven't done anything
that can't be reversed.

-Do you understand "reverse"?
-Yes. Do you?

Isn't she looking strangely at him?

So tell me...
what do you want from me?

-You don't know that?
-No. You have to tell me.

What the hell is she saying?

Call for an interpreter.

Tobias, we're bringing in
an interpreter.

-Tobias?
-We lost the link!

-Can you see anything?
-No, nothing.

And now?

-Do you see what's going on?
-Hold on...

-We detect no sound or movement.
-Go in, then.

Our instructions are
not to intervene.

I'm telling you to!

You won't get away with this.

Please, Lidia. I have a daughter.

We can't go in.
The negotiator must...

-We can't reach him!
-Ewert!

Please, Lidia...
