Roslund Hellström: Box 21 (2020–…): Season 1, Episode 6 - Episode #1.6 - full transcript

-Did Tobias know her?
-You think he paid for sex?

No.

The first thing he did
was showing me his police badge.

Even if he killed me, he would get
away with it, because he was the law.

She wouldn't hurt another police,

-unless he was corrupted!
-Stop saying that!

I have colleagues who met him
at the conference in Munich.

-He participated.
-In Munich?

Yes. He's on the list.

Put down...

I want you to apologize.
You screwed things up for me.



-Ovidiu!
-Alina!

Too many of my girls
have been forced to do what you do.

-Are there any witnesses?
-They said it was a car accident.

You should have taken care of
the dead boar.

Lucian is working in Sweden now.

In the restaurant business.
A business owner, like you.

And it's going well, as you can see.

Dad, can you take the car home?

-Really?
-Sure. I'll just take a walk.

-Hi, Lucian. Do you remember me?
-Should I?

Cosmina. I'm Mirela's little sister.

-You were...
-And now I'm this big.

And I want to leave.

-You shouldn't be in such a hurry.
-I don't have a choice here.



-You've helped others get jobs.
-You're not right for it.

-Why not? I can serve food...
-Go home.

Go home, Cosmina! And tell Mirela
that I... Just say hi.

I work hard, Lucian.
I'll go with you whenever you want.

Turn the camera off.
Put the gun down.

I can tell.

You won't do it.

Hello?

-Did it go well?
-Yes, it did.

OK. Did you get everything?

Yes.

Good. I have a new job for you.

-No.
-What do you mean?

-I'm not taking any more jobs.
-So you're actually retiring?

I'm dropping off the camera,
but that's it.

Right...

But I'm not at the garage right now,
so stop by this afternoon.

-OK.
-I'll get you a going-away present.

Bye.

Hi!

-Is she asleep?
-Yes.

-When she wakes up, you need to...
-Talk to her. I know.

-What exactly should I say?
-That doesn't really matter.

She needs to hear your voice.

Tell her about your trip.

Look, Sven...

I found out something in Romania
that I need to tell everyone.

I want a meeting at 11 a.m.

-It sounds serious.
-It is.

Hi, Astrid.

-Thank you for coming.
-Of course.

You're not bringing her in, are you?

-Does she know what we're doing?
-Yes.

I'll drop her off at practice later.

Are you ready?

-Do you want to be alone with him?
-I want you to be here.

Will you do it? Please.

Ewert...

-I can't stop thinking about it.
-About what?

Tell me.

The thing you asked me about.

If he had seen prostitutes.

Why did you ask me that?

Did something happen in Romania?

-I...
-Was he mixed up in something?

I can't tell you.

Not as long
as the investigation is ongoing.

That's what he would have said
as well.

Astrid wants to talk to you.
If that's OK.

-About what?
-I don't know.

Just talk to her a bit.

What did he look like?

He looked like your father.

-Tell me the truth.
-I am.

I read online that she blew herself
and Dad up into pieces.

-Astrid...
-It's true.

Why did she do it?

Your dad did his job.
He saved lots of people's lives.

Why didn't they die instead?

If you need help with...
I don't know,

getting to practice or the movies,

just call me. I'm here for you.

I'm not the one who needs
to go to the movies. Mom is.

Sorry I'm a bit late.

I want to update you
on the investigation of Lidia Amarei

and our colleague Tobias Nordwall.

As some of you know,
I've been to Bucharest.

I went there with Alina Lazariuc.

-Why?
-I arrested her.

-Where?
-At the station luggage lockers.

I questioned her,
but she wasn't going to say anything

unless I helped her
escape the country.

So I did, and she promised
to tell me everything she knew.

-Well...what did she tell you?
-We had a long conversation.

She identified the man
who abused Lidia

and controlled the organization
that she and Lidia were victims of.

She identified someone we all know.

Lucian Manea.

-Do we know where he is?
-No.

I'm afraid he could be involved
in Alina's death.

-Is Alina dead?
-After we went our separate ways...

she was the victim of a hit-and-run.

-My God...
-I assumed she was in danger here.

That's why I acted so quickly.

I should have realized that they
could get to her in Romania as well.

And "they" are
the trafficking organization?

-Did Alina mention them?
-No, she spoke only of Lucian.

I spoke to our colleagues over there
who told me about Lidia.

They explained why
she blew herself and Tobias up.

Lidia's father was a police officer
who was shot by other officers.

-That might have caused her...
-To hate police officers.

Could that really explain
why she prepared a bomb

and took hostages?
Just to blow up a police officer?

We might never know the real reason.

-Why didn't you tell us?
-He's telling us now.

You decided to take Alina out of
the country. Why didn't you tell us?

-I wanted her to trust me.
-We should have helped you.

Yes, you're right.

What'll happen now?

I'll stay in touch with the Romanian
police who are looking for Lucian,

but that's it.

-You want to close the investigation?
-We have no other suspects.

The hostage incident
has been cleared up.

I'll write a full report
for all of you to read,

but we need to focus
on other investigations.

Easy for you to say!

Sven? Have you found out
any more about Sam Shirazi?

No.

-Should we talk to his sister again?
-No, she's told us all she knows.

I'll check with Karlberg
at the casino.

Ewert?

-What's up?
-We can talk about it another time.

-Are you sure?
-Yes.

Right.

My coat.

-Not now. Micke is waiting.
-Good. Ask him where Sam is.

-I don't know anything.
-You told Micke that Sam is alive.

Are you blaming me? You gave
Jochum the address for Lönnen.

You started all this. If something
happened to Sam, it's on you.

-What happened?
-I don't know.

Bullshit. Tell me, or I'll tell Micke
about your gambling.

Here, I'll call him.
I'm tired of running your errands.

That's exactly
what he's going to find out about.

Jochum was given a camera

to record the killing.

-So it happened?
-I don't know.

-Is Sam dead?
-I don't know.

Get in touch as soon as you know.

-Hi. I'm looking for Ewert Grens.
-Ewert Grens? Yes, he's over here.

-Are you Klara?
-Yes.

-One of the hostages?
-That's right.

-He's not here. I'll have him call.
-I might as well give it to you.

I got this back yesterday.
I usually record the lectures.

Just before she came in with the gun,
I had turned my phone on.

I just noticed that I recorded
everything that happened.

Thank you.

Lidia, can I call you that?

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

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

You understand the word "reverse"?

Yes. Do you?

Tell me...
what do you want from me?

I want to ruin your life
like you ruined mine.

-And now?
-You can't escape this.

"You can't escape this."

"Escape?"

"The truth...about you."

That you abused,
degraded and sold me.

"Tell the ones listening

that all I was good for
was a fucking blowjob."

Anything for the client.
Vodka wasn't enough.

Cocaine and amphetamines
made me fuckable.

Heroin put me to sleep.

Tell them,
or I'll blow your head off!

Turn the mic on and let them hear it.

That you were going to kill me
after I got a luggage locker.

Tell them that you're a monster
in disguise. Or you'll die!

Tell them!

I'm sorry, Lidia.

"I'm sorry, Lidia."

Sorry, Lidia.

Are you sure she said
"luggage locker"?

Yes, that's right.

There she is.

Here. I've got a job for you.
Wrap that up in plastic.

-What?
-Jochum is retiring.

-Yes. Ewert.
-Hi, I'm here. Will you let me in?

-What are you doing here?
-I need to talk to you.

You didn't miss anything?
Make sure it's tight.

-This tape is hopeless!
-Come on. Jochum will be here soon.

-Isn't this enough?
-What the fuck do you think?

You need to cover the floor as well.

I'll lure him over
and shoot him in the head.

He'll be standing here...
Pow, pow, and he goes over.

We won't need to clean afterwards.

But he might refuse to come in
once he sees how nice it is.

"You won't get away with this."

"The truth."

-What's that?
-It's Tobias.

He's speaking Romanian with Lidia.
Did you know he could speak that?

He knew several languages.
It was part of his training.

The entire conversation in the morgue
was recorded.

It's all in here.

What he did to her and other women.

How he degraded,
abused and sold them.

-You knew this, didn't you?
-Let me finish reading.

-Who did Alina identify?
-I already told you.

Yes, but you lied.

Don't you get it?
I'm giving you a chance.

If you don't take it, you're involved
or trying to protect a friend.

-Are you insane?
-No.

I'm just disappointed.

Don't you know what they were forced
to do? All this abuse.

And he made money from it.

-How can you cover up...?
-I'm not.

You just gave me these documents.
They're not proof of anything.

Don't say that. How can you ignore
what she's saying?

Lidia is accusing him.
She's pointing a gun at him.

What was he supposed to do?
He's choosing to comply.

-He's asking forgiveness.
-To save his own life.

He's being compliant because
she's threatening to kill him.

What was in Box 21?

I just saw with my own eyes how
you arrested Alina at the station.

And you cleared out the locker.

You reacted to something in it.

-What was it?
-There was lots of stuff. All hers.

You know...ever since I started at
the department, I looked up to you.

When I saw this, I thought
there must be an explanation.

Ewert Grens would never do
anything like this. Never.

But I was wrong.

-Give them back.
-What are you going to do?

I'm going to do what's right.
What I can live with.

-Ewert.
-Jochum is on his way here.

-Micke is going to kill him.
-I'm coming.

Right...
Did you bring the masterpiece?

I can tell. You won't do it.
Put down...

Is this a trick? Is it real blood?
Or maybe an animation?

They do that in movies.

-No.
-No?

Can I trust you? Last time
you were here, you lied to my face.

How can I trust your "no"?

Answer me!

-I don't know what to say.
-You don't need to say anything.

I can tell by looking at you.
You're loyal.

Karlberg! Lock this up.

Nicely filmed.

Social realism.

Maybe you should work in film
after your retirement.

How's it going, Karlberg?
Is "suck my dick 63" not working?

Oh, I changed the code. The new one
is only given to those who are loyal.

Are you, Karlberg?

Loyal.

Because that's not what I've heard.

OK. I'll keep watch
outside the building. Thanks.

SWAT is coming.

Look how nice Karlberg made it.
He thought it was for you.

Don't you think I know
that you gamble away my money?

He's told the cops about you,
Jochum.

How did they know
you were going to kill Sam?

How did our accountant find out
that you spared Sam?

He's been talking to Ewert Grens.

-I've done my part for you.
-What have you done for me?

-I got you your revenge.
-What?

I killed Sam.
Because he killed your sister.

Do you think I wanted to avenge
my junkie sister? Are you kidding me?

She didn't mean shit to me.

-So I didn't need to kill Sam?
-Yes, you did.

It's like taking out stinky trash.
He was trash, just like my sister.

And like that rat over there.

No, Jochum... I don't want to die.

No!

I don't want to die!

I liked Sam.

-It didn't have to end like this.
-I get it, Jochum.

-He wanted a different ending.
-Yes...

Police!

-Who's there?
-Jochum Lang.

Ewert...

I'm so fucking...sorry.

About your wife. And your child.

You shouldn't have sold bad drugs
to Micke's sister.

-I know.
-You're going to pay for it.

It doesn't have to be that way.

I don't need to pay for it
like that.

-There has to be another way.
-Shut up.

-Or what?
-I said, shut up.

Turn the camera off.

Put the gun down.

I can tell. You won't do it.

Put down...

It didn't need to happen.

None of this did.

Alina told me that he always
took it off before a rape.

After he abused Lidia, he forgot it.

Alina kept it in Box 21.

It was such a big shock.

I was going to tell you everything.

But Lena and Astrid...
I couldn't do it.

I just couldn't.

But you can.

Hey, Ewert...

He was scum. But you're not.

Hi, honey.

How are you?

I'm making breakfast.

What about some scrambled eggs?

With no milk and lots of tabasco,
like you used to make them.

What do you think?

Will you come with me
and keep me company?

Are you comfortable?

Should we listen to some music?

Yes, I can put Siw on. For you.

But you know what I think about her.

-Do you need some help?
-Yes, please.

Hi, Anni.

How are you?

-I'm thinking about quitting.
-Quitting?

I'm not really made for this.
I've made so many mistakes.

All this with Sam...

I'll never be like you and Mariana.
Or like Tobias.

That's why you're the best one of us.

He's ruined so many lives.

I won't let him ruin theirs.

It's OK to be nervous.

-Just don't hit first.
-Think first, then hit. I know.

-You need to start off right.
-I know.

-Who are we meeting?
-Your new employer: Janus.

-Is he on the ferry?
-Yes.

He wants you to feel welcome and
prepared for what awaits in Sweden.

Go on in. I'll wait here.

Welcome, Cosmina.
