HENNING MANKELL'S WALLANDER SERIES
THE THIEF
Hi.
Would you like to contribute
to Ystad FC's new Astroturf field?
- Of course. Hi there, Elias.
- Hi.
Sure.
- How much are they?
-20 kronor each.
What do I win?
A trip to watch a league match in London.
- Two, then.
- OK.
- How many have you got there?
- I've got 24 left.
- I'll take them all.
- Oh, thanks!
- And you can keep the 20 change.
- Thanks! That's great!
- Thanks very much!
- Bye.
Dad, the door's open!
Fuck!
Anna, we've had a break-in.
Fuck!
The bastards!
Yes.
So you'll be here as soon as you can?
We all know what that means.
OK;, thanks.
Looks like you had a break-in.
I called the police.
Let's see if they turn up this time.
Hey!
Kurt!
- I just want to say thanks, or sorry, or...
- For what?
Elias told me you bought
all their raffle tickets.
Yes, yes.
- Are you sure it's OK?
- Of course.
You didn't just buy that many
because we know each other?
I mean even I, his mother,
haven't bought any yet.
I bought them because I love soccer...
...because I want to support the club...
...and because I've always dreamed
of watching an English league match.
- I see. Are you that much of a soccer fan?
- Yes.
Id like to go and watch Elias
when he's practicing and support him...
...but I never have the time.
He probably wouldn't want
his mom there either.
I can go along instead.
- Really?
- If I may.
Of course, sure.
If it's OK with you.
I dream of watching some soccer.
Have you seen anything?
Anything suspicious?
You too?
Is it bad?
- Cell phones, laptops, jewelry, everything.
- The same here. Fuck.
I feel like I've been raped.
At our place, they took Sara's big teddy.
- Really?
- Her teddy?
They turned her bedroom inside out.
A damn teddy.
I guess such people have kids too.
About damn time.
- Hi.
- Did we interrupt your coffee break?
- We came as quickly as we could.
- It's been more than an hour.
If it had been an ongoing break-in,
we'd naturally have come immediately.
It's the third and fourth in two weeks!
- Do you ever patrol here at night?
- Yes, we do. When we can, we do.
Let's be honest: you don't do shit.
Should we stand here discussing this,
or should we do our job?
- Two break-ins, right?
- That's right.
- Olle Sodergren?
- That's me.
Your house?
- Ralf Eriksson?
- That's me.
Cut that out.
Go upstairs and play instead.
They've taken the roasting thermometer,
the digital one!
What are they like?
A teddy bear and a roasting thermometer.
Yeah, it seems...
Camera, laptop...
...Grandma's jewelry.
Maybe you could sit down
in peace and quiet and write down...
No!
Aren't you going to take fingerprints
or DNA traces or anything?
Were you at home when it happened?
I just came back this morning.
The rest of my family's away.
Do you keep weapons in the house?
No, no.
I haven't got any weapons.
Their kind won't give up until they've
gone through every damn house in the area.
We'll have to set up a night-patrol rota.
And we should count up the hours
and bill the police for them.
Fuck!
If 1 could just get my hands
on these bastards!
- Shouldn't we leave that to the police?
- But they do nothing!
They do fuck all!
We're forced to pay tax...
...but that tax money,
those thieves have grabbed it for themselves...
...in the form of refugee support,
benefits and shit like that.
Olle!
- So we're on for tonight, OK?
- Right.
- By the crossing, at midnight.
- Yes, yes.
Sorry.
- Magdalena called, so...
- Is everything OK?
I wish I could say so, but...
It'll be all right. Come on.
- Where are you going?
- The car's ready.
- I just have to go and pick up some tools.
- Now?
Yes, now. I know it's late,
but I need them first thing in the morning.
- When will you be back?
- As soon as I can. Half an hour, tops.
Sarunia left her teddy in the car.
I'll bring it back with me.
So the training camp is in Falkenberg?
Yes, we're driving there.
- We've got the bastard.
- Are you sure?
Of course, I'm sure.
You can see for yourself.
- What should we do? Call the police?
- No fucking way are we calling the police!
Fuck, I've been looking forward
to this. Come on.
- Get him!
- Run!
Got you, you bastard!
That's enough!
Olle! Fucking hell, Olle, that's enough!
- Shit!
- Easy, easy.
- There's his car.
- Do you think he'll be all right?
He's lying there freezing to death!
Maybe we should call someone.
- He'll be fine.
- But it's cold.
Shut the fuck up!
Just chill.
What are you doing?
What are you doing now?
- What are you doing in his car?
- Looking for my stuff.
Check inside.
- Is this Elin's teddy?
- What?
There was a break-in.
Maybe he stole Elin's teddy.
Do you think Id buy a fucking
teddy bear like this for my kids?
- Well?
Well, then.
Let's forget it.
Come on.
Olle, come on.
I said come on!
Olle!
Home.
- Want a lift into town?
- No, thanks. I was thinking of walking.
- Aren't you fit!
- Yeah, healthy too.
Doctor's orders.
I got a step counter too so I can't cheat.
I take long detours to the recycling bins.
- OK. See you at the station, then.
- OK, see you. Bye, bye.
OK, if we can start with his name.
Jarek Kozyra.
Do you think you could write it down?
Thanks.
You don't think he's just gone home...
What are you saying?
I see you are married.
I see your ring.
If your wife didn't come home...
...if your wife didn't call...
- Well?
- Yes, yes.
Sorry, I was just...
- Of course, we'll look into it.
- Yes. Thanks.
How old is he?
I saw two vandalized bus stops
just on the way here.
Then we'll have to put cameras up.
That'll work.
Then they'll just go
and vandalize something else.
You don't mean...
...that we should waste resources
on some bus stops, do you?
Get rid of them.
- Morning.
- Morning.
OK. Report from last night.
The vandals have been having fun again.
Three bus stops destroyed...
...and a shop window smashed
along the pedestrian high street.
- All right.
- Three youths were seen running through town.
We know who they are.
Did they take anything
from the shop window?
- Mannequins.
- I see.
The rest of the bodies are down
by the recycling bins on Turbingatan.
From the mannequins, I mean.
Well, let's haul them in.
- You had something, Svartman.
- Yes.
A Polish woman was here this morning.
Her husband went missing last night.
One Jarek Kozyra, 32.
Left home in his car at midnight
and hasn't returned.
He's been missing for 9 hours.
They have two children,
a 6-year-old and a baby.
No pets?
What Svartman means, I presume...
...is that someone with small kids
doesn't just up and leave.
They're here from Poland
and working illegally.
What, so they should be less loving
and untrustworthier?
You mean “less trustworthy.”
You've got the license number.
Check the ferry crossings.
Why leave home at midnight?
The last ferry goes at 9:00.
- He went to pick up some tools.
- Where from?
I don't know.
Then go and ask his wife.
Isabelle and...
Maybe I could go.
I think she built up a little trust in me.
OK, then you can go...
...and probe her a little more
about their passports and 1D cards...
...and their relationship, finances, etc.
You know.
Raffle tickets?
To save the soccer club.
Support.
- Is it a boy?
- Yes.
- How old is he?
- Three months.
Let me get out of the way.
Do you know anyone who might know
where he went to get these tools?
- I'm hungry, Mom.
- Later. Be quiet.
There are a number of them
living in a house outside town...
- I'm hungry!
-...but I don't know exactly where.
But they might know
where he went to pick up the tools?
Yes, I think so.
- Tomasz! He was speaking to Tomasz!
- Tomasz.
'M hungry, Mommy.
There! Now eat!
Have you tried calling his cell?
His phone's at home,
and his wallet's at home...
...and his passport, everything!
Maybe I could take his phone
and wallet, if that's OK.
You don't have to, but it could help.
He took nothing with him!
What happened to Jarek?
What?
- What happened, Mommy?
- It's nothing.
It's nothing, sweetheart.
Everything will be fine.
Here.
- Buy some food.
- What? I have food.
I have a whole pantry full of food,
but I just can't bring myself to cook!
I cant do it!
I could throw together
some spaghetti bolognese.
Would you like that?
Spaghetti bolognese?
Hi. Tomasz?
You know, I worked out that
I put 20 hours a week into this club.
And whatdol get in return?
Some sneakers and a tracksuit.
What the...
I don't believe it!
Oh, what? Not again!
Look, I've got to go.
- Could you stay and wait for the police?
- Sure, I'll stay.
Well, Nyberg, found anything?
You bet.
One or two things.
Here you go. The boys' prints.
Check for a match immediately.
Id like to arrest them in school
in front of their mates.
That'll put an end to all this vandalism.
Nyberg, you realize we're tracking down
a few pranksters here, don't you?
- All crimes are the same to me.
- Yes.
- Bye.
- Bye.
It was this Tomasz
who told Jarek to come out here.
No, the owners aren't at home.
Aneighbor said they're away
while the house is being renovated.
Yes, around 20,000, I guess,
which the children had raised.
But they left the lunch vouchers
and the computer.
- Why didn't they take everything?
- I don't know.
It's your job to find that out, isn't it?
Someone's taken the money, anyway.
You'll have to take that up
with your insurance company, I guess.
- So you're just going to leave?
- There's not much we can do.
Dozens of people have access to this room...
...and our only lead is the broken window.
It takes more serious crimes than this
to warrant a forensic investigation.
That's just how it is.
No, no, she's with Grandma.
Sure, but Mom and I need to have
a little chat about some things first.
Look, Theo, can I call you back?
Good. Love you.
One, two, three, good-bye.
The cops are here,
so if we could come in and talk...
What? Here?
- Let's go inside to talk.
- Sure, sure.
Don't come in with your shoes on.
I've been cleaning.
We must get our stories straight
about yesterday.
You never know.
I checked out the house.
It doesn't look like he'd broken in.
Nothing was broken, not a thing.
But when it comes to the law...
...it doesn't matter if he's a damn pedophile.
We're in deep shit if we screw up now.
We must say the same thing,
give the exact same story.
And we can hardly say
we weren't out that night, can we?
It doesn't feel good to have to lie.
It's not about what feels good.
It's about what feels least bad.
I can't afford a fine,
let alone going to prison.
- Prison?
- Aggravated assault.
A guaranteed prison sentence.
This Tomasz said that the tools would be
in a plastic bag here in the hall.
A drill, some bits and some pliers.
Then he's obviously picked them up.
OK; I want you to tell me exactly where
you jokers have placed these things.
The mannequins.
We know it's you.
- Jesus.
- Hilarious.
It's Polish.
You can go now.
I thought I'd stay here,
if that's OK with you.
Why?
I like watching soccer.
Kurt speaking.
If you find a burned car
with its plates still on and no driver...
...the chances are
that something's not right, yeah?
Yes.
- Can you see any tools?
-we'll have a look.
He asked if there are any tools inside.
- A drill and some pliers.
- No.
Nothing at all.
OK; that's enough.
Thank you!
- We'll go with two goals.
- Kick off!
Let's go.
You'll have to be goalie.
Anders is sick.
'M a friend of Elias's mother.
Elias?
Oh, him, the new boy.
- He's good.
- They all look good to me.
We're just trying to get
some discipline into them.
But of course it should be fun too.
Is that the new artificial turf?
Yes, that's right.
Opening on the 14th of March.
You're welcome to come.
There'll be a match,
some fun for the kids, a prize drawing.
Excuse me, I just have to...
OK that's all.
Well played.
See you next time, boys!
- Well played, Elias.
- Thanks.
So it hasn't been reported stolen.
- No, not reported.
- No.
It seems odd
to get rid of a car by torching it.
And most of all, you don't leave the plates on
when you dump a car in the woods.
No.
- See you tomorrow.
- Have a good one.
- Good night.
- Night-night.
It seems like a great club,
don't you think?
Yes.
Good leaders.
You can meet some really...
- Hello!
- Hello, sweetheart!
- How did it go?
- Well.
- Hi, hi.
- How did it go?
It went fine.
- Have you eaten?
- I'll get a bite on the way home.
Don't you want to join us?
- Need a hand?
- It's OK.
Yes, you can take the water over
if you want and open the wine, perhaps.
Hanna, can you bring in
a couple of wine glasses?
- The nice ones?
- Of course. We have guests here.
There. If you can just hand me
that carafe... Thanks, great.
- So, Kurt, if you sit next to Hanna...
- Thanks.
- There.
- Excellent.
Time for my special lasagne.
The only thing Mom
really knows how to make.
Lasagne. That's it.
It's all she can make.
Thanks.
- So, Kurt, if I can have your plate...
- Sure, of course.
There's quite a bit of chiliin it.
And Elias poured some in too.
It's good.
- You like hot food, I take it.
- Yes.
Hanna, can I have your plate?
He's been incredibly negative
ever since coming here.
In school too.
He's withdrawn and quiet, they say.
He doesn't want to get involved in anything.
I see.
So I suppose it"s more...
...that I've been on at him
to take up some activity...
.50 he can make new friends.
As I understand it, you were a famous,
successful defense lawyer...
...and then you moved here
and became a prosecutor.
Why?
Well...
Why do something like that?
Yes, why do something like that?
That's your business.
I wanted to get away.
I couldn't risk bumping
into Henrik in court all the time.
It wouldn't have worked.
Not professionally, not privately,
or in any other way.
So...
...decided to move,
and then this job came up.
I see.
No...
...don't think you do.
Do you know what?
I feel like a selfish villain...
...who snatched the kids
and fled with them here.
It's not easy explaining things to the kids.
I can't really tell them...
...that I wanted to move
to avoid seeing their dad.
- May 1?
- Yes.
I have to take this.
Kurt speaking.
I'll be right there.
Bye.
I"m sorry. Nyberg.
I have to...
Pity.
- A delicious dinner. Thank you.
- Thank you, Kurt.
Listen, if you win that trip in the raffle...
...you know who
to take with you to London.
Good, thanks.
Bye.
Oh, sorry, Jussi.
Come on.
Are you angry with me?
Kurtie's had some wine,
so we'll have to walk home.
Hi!
Have you cycled here?
Well, well!
No way am I leaving this
outside on the street.
It's all I've got left of my father's.
Well, how's it going?
I've been having a little look
at that cell phone...
...that Svartman wisely brought in.
It seems he's a keen photographer.
- What's that?
- I wondered that too.
So I imported it onto the computer, and...
It's a poor camera in poor light, but...
...she doesn't look that healthy.
Could it be another mannequin?
Just some stupid joke?
A joke or not... I don't know.
I think it looks like a person...
...who's dead.
Bring up that picture again.
- Can we see where it was taken?
- No, the phone is too old for that.
But these were the last four photos he took.
Before that, it's just family snapshots.
- A baby?
- Yes.
Then it's recent.
I see.
So we'll have to search every single place
this man has access to.
Yes?
What?
Greetings from Katarina.
Warrants to search Jarek's home
and the place where his friends live.
We'll search for whatever
we can link to this photo...
...and to all the recent break-ins.
This is a search warrant.
- But...
- It's OK, Maja. We'll be careful.
But he's not here. I promise!
Id like you to tell me
when these pictures were taken.
What?
Where did you get those from?
Just answer my question.
I've got no idea.
I was asleep.
Ask those guys
who were on patrol that night.
- On patrol?
- Yes.
Some of us wanted to do a little night patrolling
because of all the break-ins there have been here.
- Right, OK. Thanks.
- Thanks.
We just heard that some of the neighbors
around here operate a night patrol.
- Was anyone out that night?
- According to him, yes.
- Could he give any names?
- Yes.
Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself before.
Kurt Wallander, Ystad police.
Right, I see.
What happened?
I just have a few questions.
We're talking to everyone in the area.
- Come in.
- Thanks.
- Freshly painted?
- Yes.
Come on out, kids.
- Have you got a moment?
- Sure.
- You were out on patrol the other night.
- That's right.
- See anything special?
- No. Nothing.
Where did you go?
Around the houses?
Yes, exactly, but we saw nothing.
- Were you out all night?
- Yes.
- Until when?
-4:00, 4:30.
Is there no key to this?
- Do you have to shout?
- Yes, I do.
I'll go and ask her.
She says that Jarek has it.
- Oh, what...
- An envelope full of cash.
At least 20,000.
Ask the biddy if she knows
where it comes from.
Her name's Maja.
You're a social worker
in a policeman's body, you know.
Surgery might help.
- So there were three of you.
- Yes.
Me, and my neighbours Peter Andersson...
...and Olle Stdergren
who lives just across the road.
So it was you three who went out
on patrol the night before last.
Yes.
Did anything special happen?
No. Like what?
I have no idea.
It was calm.
You saw no car, no one walking a dog,
no sound that you heard...
No.
In fact, I don't think
I can remember anything.
Was it a clear night?
I can't remember.
- Did you hear any fireworks?
- Fireworks?
The boat club was celebrating some jubilee...
...the night before last with a firework display.
- Yes... maybe. It's possible.
- But you're not sure.
I think I remember some fireworks.
But only the bangs.
- What happened?
- Well, we're not quite sure.
You did almost nothing about the break-ins.
What's so important now?
We're inquiring into a missing person
and a suspected murder.
- When did you get back that night?
- I can't remember.
Yeah, you came home... It wasn't that late.
It was around 1:00 a.m., I think.
Really?
Right.
Thanks for your help.
- And I'll see you on Saturday.
- Saturday?
- Yes. The match.
- Of course.
Thank you.
Thanks.
Hi, Karin!
I hardly recognized you
without the white coat.
Can you come and look at this picture?
I can enlarge it like this,
but it doesn't make it much clearer.
- What do you want to know?
- Everything you can get from this picture.
- What did they ask you?
- I told them what we agreed on.
I just feel a bit uneasy about Olle.
Magdalena stayed with us
for a few days before she left.
He's been beating her and all that.
Shit.
Who'd have thought it?
By the way, do you recall
any fireworks that night?
- Fireworks?
- There was a firework display.
Here he comes.
- Olle!
- Coming.
Three men form a vigilante group
and go on patrol...
...on the same night
the Polish man disappears.
In the same place where the tools were.
And the tools had been picked up.
We know that from that... Tomas.
Tomasz.
That house the Poles are staying in is clean.
All they seem to do there is work,
sleep and shit. It's a total monastery there.
And the neighbours, Peter and Ralf,
were home before 1:00 a.m.
Their wives confirmed that.
And according to Jarek's wife,
he left home at 12:15.
If you're out hunting burglars,
why come home so early?
It sounds...
- Sure, but did you ask him?
- No.
I went with the fireworks thing,
so we'll see what that gives.
- What did you find at Jarek's place?
- An envelope containing 20,000.
It was locked away.
His wife knew nothing about the money.
Sorry, but what's the “firework thing”?
An interview trick.
You plant a false observation.
Yeah, so if someone else mentions
the fireworks that evening...
...we know they're fabricating their story.
- So there were no fireworks.
- Well done!
- This is my colleague.
- But what the hell?
Who wouldn't remember
a firework display? I know I would.
Don't be too sure.
Not if you're playing Monopoly
or killing someone...
...or getting a blow job.
- OK.
- Wait.
- Didn't he say he was out all night?
- Who?
- Olle said he was out all night.
- That's right. Till 4:00 or 5:00 a.m.
Hang on a second.
I'll just get this.
Kurt here.
Good.
Great.
The dog team's arrived.
Let's pull in Olle.
He's the only one with no alibi.
Pick him up in a patrol car...
...and I'll see him at the station.
Oh, Kurt, good.
I don't quite know what to do. I...
I mean, Elias has a match tonight
and I promised to give him a lift...
...but now something's come up,
so I don't know...
- Would you...
- Sure. Of course.
- Are you sure?
- Yes, yes.
Listen...
You couldn't take Hanna too, could you?
Well, yes, of course.
- You're an angel, you know that?
- OK.
Thanks, thanks.
Bye. I'll be in touch.
Well, well, well.
Your children are in safe hands...
.50 you can go and see them if necessary.
And I'd also like to say
that you're not being detained.
This is just an interview.
- So this is how you treat your witnesses?
- What do you mean?
Coming with a police car and picking me up
in front of the whole development.
I'll look into how you were brought in.
“Brought in”?
I'd have come voluntarily.
All you had to do was call, as you well know.
The time is 3:45.
Kurt Wallander commencing
the interview with Olle S6dergren...
...concerning the disappearance of Jarek Kozyra...
...on the night of the 16th of November.
Do you understand what I have just said?
I'll ask again.
Do you understand what I have just said?
Yes.
In a previous conversation...
...you said that you came home
between 4:00 and 5:00 a.m...
...on the 16th of November...
...after you and your neighbours
had patrolled your development.
- Did I say that?
- Yes.
But it's not true.
I came home just before 1:00 a.m.
I must have misunderstood the question.
How did you interpret the question then?
That...
...was asked when I went to sleep.
So you went to sleep at around 4:00 or 5:00?
I don't know.
I didn't look at the time
when I was dropping off.
- When did you get home?
- Just before 1:00 a.m.
- When did your shift start?
- About 11:30.
- Can anyone verify that?
- Yes, Ralf and Peter.
- I mean someone at home.
- My wife's away.
She's at her parents'.
- Since when?
- Last Saturday.
We had a fight, and she left.
- See. And the children?
- They were with my parents.
So you were alone.
We're getting a divorce,
so things aren't so easy right now.
Sorry to hear it.
During this hour and a half
that you were on patrol...
...what happened exactly?
Nothing much happened.
I mean, where did you go,
what did you talk about...
...what did you see,
what was the weather like?
Every little detail could be useful.
Yes.
There were fireworks.
We noticed that.
I see.
It was...
We didn't see them.
We heard... We heard them.
Was that the first thing
that happened when you left home?
No, it was later.
We met, and then we split up.
But you said “we” heard fireworks.
Yes.
I guess the others heard them too.
So you split up
and then rejoined each other...
...or what?
We...we...
We met up again and then went home.
And you talked
about the fireworks that you'd heard.
Yes, I suppose that we must have.
We must have mentioned it to each other.
Your patrol didn't last that long.
That seems strange to me. I mean,
burglars don't go to bed at 1:00 a.m.
- Would you like some coffee?
- No, I'm fine, thanks. I'm fine.
I'll go and have one.
Here we've got a bunch of spy cameras...
...which we control with this joystick.
So if we move it to the side,
we can see the whole parking lot.
Look. Here come two chicks.
Let's follow them.
They found the tools.
Nyberg's there.
This would have been so much easier...
...if those two other neighbors
didn't have such a watertight alibi.
If they suspected a burglar and beat him up...
...hid the body and the car...
...they wouldn't have had the time.
And then this other body.
What the hell's that all about?
What if their wives are lying?
Nyberg here.
A couple of hundred meters
from the development...
...in a little patch of trees.
Yes.
Good. Cordon off the area and bring it in
at once, and we'll put a watch on it.
Bye.
That was Nyberg.
He found traces of a scuffle
and leaves with blood on them.
-“Scuffle”?
- That's how he speaks.
Fight, in other words.
We've checked out this story
about the fireworks...
...and there weren't any that night.
We know that now.
This is starting to try my patience, Olle...
...and I don't know where
you think all this will get you...
...but it all seems so crazy.
You're there to scare away burglars
and call the whole thing off at 1:00 a.m.?
None of you seem simpleminded,
least of all you.
You're a doctor.
Are you just as careless then?
We saw a burglar.
You saw a burglar?
We saw a man who broke into a house
and we scared him off.
That's all.
He saw us, ran off,
and we considered the job done.
Why haven't you told us this before?
None of you has said anything.
It was a low-life bastard...
...who's been terrorizing us
with break-ins since the early summer...
...and what resources are you putting into it?
Fuck all!
But when a criminal suffers,
boy, do you kick ass!
He wasn't a criminal.
It was no break-in.
He was a workman who was
at your development to pick up some tools.
- In the middle of the night.
- Apparently.
And now I'd like to know exactly...
...how this man has suffered.
We grabbed him,
tried to hold him down.
We tried to hold him,
50 you could come and arrest him.
But he went for us,
and so we started to beat him.
Quite badly.
But we left him there.
He wasn't dead.
He was damn well far from dead.
We hit him, but we didn't kill him.
We left him there and went away.
And that's all I have to say about it.
Interview concluded.
- Are you going to lock me up now?
- No, you're free to go.
You can go home,
but you mustn't leave the area.
Hi. I came as quickly as I could.
- You had something to show me?
- Yes. In the basement.
Come.
This.
I don't know what this is.
None of it is ours.
Well, well, well.
They certainly had things to discuss.
Well, I've had a little look...
Hey, now we're starting to see something.
- I had to work on it, too.
- I can see that.
So it's a woman...
...anywhere between 30 and 45,
perhaps older...
...but no younger than 30.
Mousy hair, looks highlighted.
I can't say much about the cause of death...
...but there are marks on her throat.
If she's dead, the killer took care of her
immediately after death...
...which means he must have
planned the murder...
...and wrapped her up in plastic immediately.
That's all I can say without a body.
You say she's dead.
Can we be certain that she's dead?
All l can say is that she looks dead.
One's missing and one looks dead.
What about the plastic?
Could it be the kind of plastic sheeting
you use when you're painting?
Yes, that's very possible.
I have to go to a game, I'm afraid.
Can I take these pictures
and return them tomorrow?
I'll see you then.
Thanks.
What else could I have done?
Those fireworks you mentioned...
There were no fireworks that night.
There were no damn fireworks!
- And so it all came pouring out, right?
- What could I have said?
You could have said any fucking thing,
you stupid fucking moron!
- OK, calm down.
- What else did you say?
That you stood watching
while we beat him up?
That you tried to get us to stop?
Is that it?
I just told them how it was.
You know, I think you're lying.
As I recall, you laid into him,
you fucking psycho!
- I said “we”, nothing else.
- It was you!
- Yeah, you completely lost it.
- We all lost it that night, right?
You're the only one of us
who's beaten his wife.
- What...
- And that'll get out. You can count on that.
Everyone around here knows about it.
I've never “beaten” Magdalena.
OK. Get out of my car.
Now get out of my car.
You make me sick.
Can you get out of my car?
Hear me?
Get out of the car, now!
I can't stand that asshole.
He makes my flesh crawl.
OK, we'll tell them that
we've been trying to cover up for him.
He flipped out
and beat the shit out of the guy...
...and then we stopped him.
Sure, good.
That's settled then.
OK, bye.
Hi.
Sorry we're late.
I've just spoken to the other team
and have some bad and some good news.
- Which would you like to hear first?
- The bad news.
The bad news is that the match is off.
But the good news is that...
...we won the match!
Can't we play the parents instead?
Well, parents, what do you say?
Should we thrash the boys?
I said, should we thrash the boys?
- Come on!
- Let's do it!
- Aren't you playing?
- No, it's parents against the boys.
- But you said you played in division 2.
- Yeah, but that was ages ago.
Forget it, then.
Hey, Elias...
I'm in.
What the hell?
- Your dad's shit, isn't he?
- He's not my dad.
Hell.
I'll pay for this tomorrow.
Me and Peter,
we've got something to tell you.
About that evening.
It wasn't at all like Olle said it was.
Me and Peter didn't beat up that guy.
It was Olle.
We finally pulled him off
and we were trying to help him.
He's had it tough at home,
with his family and...
- It was really stupid of us.
- I understand.
Come over to the station tomorrow,
and we can take your statement then.
Tomorrow? Both of us?
By the way, Ralf...
...when you redecorated,
what did you cover the floor with?
- Plastic or normal paper?
- Plastic.
OK. Thanks.
- Hi.
- It's Janne.
Have you finished watching soccer?
I haven't been watching soccer.
I've been playing it.
- Really?
- Yes. What do you want?
We've been at Jarek's place.
And his basement is full of stolen goods.
- Shit.
- You said it. Bye.
Good night, Theo.
Mommy will be here soon.
- It'd be nice to get some grub now, right?
- Yeah.
I can understand that.
- Hi, Dad!
- Hi, Elias, hi! How did it go?
- We won!
- That's great!
- Did you play too?
- They made me be the ref.
My legs really ache.
We played the parents,
and he scored an own goal.
- Who's he?
- Oh, dear.
- Have you sprained your ankle?
- It's OK.
- Hi, sweetheart. How did it go?
- Fine.
Hi!
- You're Kurt, right?
- Yes.
- I'm Henrik. I"m the father of...
- Elias.
That's right. I heard that
you joined in the game.
- Gave it your all, I see!
- Yeah.
- I should go home and clean up.
- can see why.
I just want to thank you
for doing this for Elias.
It's been ages since I saw him so happy.
- Good.
- Thanks.
- I saw that the lights were on.
- Comein.
I just want to say that...
...I should have told you
that Henrik was here.
That I... Now it feels
as if I'm trying to hide something.
I don't know.
Anyway, I'm not. I...
We just needed time to talk
without the kids...
...without one of us hanging up.
I mean, he's staying at a hotel.
He's going back tomorrow.
- Can I offer you something? A glass of wine?
- No, thanks.
I should get back to the kids.
Maybe one glass, then.
Sit down.
I was just sitting here working.
We do nothing else, do we?
You're not the type
to take work home, are you?
- No, definitely not.
- No, I can see that!
So did you resolve anything,
you and your ex-husband?
No.
It was pointless.
It's actually the first time
we've met since...
It feels really weird.
Really weird.
It does.
- Look, let's talk about something else, OK?
- Sure.
Tell me. How did it go
with that Pole, for example?
How did the house search go?
They found a load of money
that his wife couldn't account for.
And tons of stolen goods.
What was his name,
that man you interviewed, Olle...
Sodergren.
Does he live on the Akka development?
Yes, that's right.
On Nils Holgerssons Vag.
Then it was his wife I met, Magdalena.
Isn't that her name?
Exactly. Apparently
they're getting divorced.
In that case, I met her at the refuge.
He'd assaulted her.
- Really? Badly?
- Yes.
And visibly.
She didn't want to file a report, of course.
She just said she was planning to leave him.
Would you recognize her again
if you saw her?
I don't know.
Yes.
What?
- It might well be her.
- Might be.
- But you can't say for certain.
- No.
It has to be her.
I want...
I want to know about my kids!
Have you taken them...
Jesus Christ, is it too much
to ask to know where they are?
I've spoken to Magdalena's mother.
She hasn't seen Magdalena for weeks.
I don't want to be a killjoy...
...but we're talking about two murders,
and we haven't found a single body.
What are you talking about?
You yourself have just identified
the body as Olle's wife.
I have to see this from the defense's view...
...and all I can say is that I see
a strange picture of a woman we can't find.
- Taken by a criminal.
- Whom we also can't find.
We'll have to see what
the forensic investigation turns up.
And the questioning of Olle Stdergren.
He's yours. Six hours.
Hello.
I'm Asa Ljungberg.
Svartman?
I want you to put out a search
for Magdalena Stdergren's car.
Get a list of
and talk to all her friends...
...and colleagues and relatives and...
By the way, where did she work?
She was in charge of the display windows
at the Ahlens department store.
She was in charge
of those mannequins that you...
Yeah, right.
Now that's a bit weird.
Isn't it?
What is it my client's actually suspected of?
He already told you all he knows
about this man's disappearance.
The time is 10:45.
Kurt Wallander commences interview
with Olle Stdergren.
Also present, defense lawyer Asa Ljungberg.
Olle, you said before...
...that your wife went to her mother's
on the 11th of November.
- Is that the case?
- Yes.
This is the missing Jarek Kozyra's cell phone...
...which has a built-in camera...
...and it's clearly been used.
Now I want you to look at this picture...
...and tell me what you see.
- Take your time. Look carefully.
- It's Magdalena.
Your wife?
Olle, you're suspected of the murder
of Magdalena StGdergren...
...and Jarek Kozyra.
These are new allegations...
...and I demand to see the material
that you have on the case...
...before Olle answers any further questions.
Understand?
Id like a private word with my client...
...and I want access
to the investigation report.
- Now!
- Go ahead.
Defend him tooth and nail.
The timeis 10:50.
Interview terminated.
We'll break for half an hour.
Olle, can I have the phone?
Kurt...
...you know that she can report you for that.
If he's innocent and didn't know
that his wife was dead...
He knew.
The photo I showed him wasn't his wife,
strangled and wrapped up.
It was a mannequin
wrapped in plastic sheeting.
He said it was her because he knew
what picture was on the phone.
He knows his wife is dead.
He knew exactly what he'd see.
'M taking a walk.
Kurt!
They found Magdalena's car
in central Malma.
The parking fee was paid for 24 hours
using a card, her card...
.50 I checked all her transactions...
...and that was the last time
it was used, to pay for the parking lot.
12:05am.
But a withdrawal of 1,500 was made
here in Ystad an hour earlier.
- But no larger withdrawal?
- No.
Good.
He's no fool.
He wouldn't use his own money for blackmail.
And Magdalena's job?
Did you speak to them there?
Yes. Everyone's baffled.
She'd taken sick leave.
She reported in sick by text message.
And who do you think did that?
- Maybe him, Olle.
- Good work, Svartman. Good work.
So he must have driven her car
to Malmd and left it there.
There are no trains back to Ystad that late,
so he must have taken a taxi.
Check with all the taxi companies...
...and see if the ATM
was covered by a CCTV camera.
- Understood?
- Yes.
- Good. Bye.
- Bye.
- Nyberg.
- The clothes.
Check to see if there are any muddy boots.
Everything's newly washed
and clean and tidy.
There are some overalls in the shed...
...and a pair of boots
with drainage sand on them.
And some spades that
have been used for gardening here.
Is the garden freshly dug?
Yes, the lawn's just recently been laid.
You can lift it up.
It's the kind that you roll out.
- Roll out?
- Yes, roll out.
We're rolling up the whole damn lawn!
My client categorically denies
having any connection...
...with the murders of either
Jarek Kozyra or his wife...
...and he's also in shock after seeing
that photo that you showed him.
Can't you see that he's terribly worried
about what might have happened to his wife?
And then you come along
and show him a picture of...
Well, I can't be sure of what.
Olle, can you say with certainty
that it was your wife you saw?
Hang on a second.
Who's leading this interview, you or me?
Answer!
I don't know.
I"m just so worried.
- You were in the middle of a divorce, weren't you?
- She's the mother of my children!
Your wife never visited her mother,
isn't that so?
I want this interview terminated this instant!
If this man wasn't a doctor and a Swedish
citizen with a name like Stdergren...
...it'd be a very different story.
That guy is guilty, he's a murderer,
and you let him off the hook! Jesus Christ!
We have no bodies,
let alone a weapon...
...and as for the motive,
I'm not sure your assumptions really...
Come in.
Excuse me.
I checked the taxi companies...
...and there was no call out
from Malmo to Ystad that night.
Unfortunately.
And the ATM wasn't monitored.
We checked Sodergren's phones,
both his cell phone and landline...
...and he's called his wife 167 times
since she disappeared.
167 times, Kurt.
Come on, we should widen our radar here.
Look, Christ, it's obvious
that the man is no idiot.
He doesn't touch her money.
He gets back from Malmo some other way.
He calls her phone feverishly.
The forensic examination
of his house turned up zero.
- Zero, Kurt.
- They're packing up as we speak.
We're looking
at a huge compensation claim.
Look, your blackmail theory doesn't work.
That 20,000,
where did he get that from?
He's got money,
but hasn't withdrawn any.
Setting aside all this legal shit...
...do you seriously think it's not him?
Seriously?
Katarina, hand on heart...
...can you look me in the eye
and say it's not him?
Yes.
- Look...
- Good, but I don't believe you.
We can't put more resources into this.
Until something else turns up,
we've got two missing persons.
Then I quit.
With immediate effect.
I'm taking my remaining vacation
and going home for good.
- Come on, Kurt.
- Off you go, Martinsson.
Now's your chance.
And tell Elias that I'll pick him up
on Sunday for the opening.
Oh, what...
Wait inside,
and I'll be right back.
Hi.
Daniel Fridén, £vening Post.
Is this your...?
Hang on.
Is this your house?
What happened?
Have you anything to say?
You can call me.
Here, take my card.
No, no, I can...
I can talk.
The thing is that my wife's missing...
...and I've been unfairly accused of her murder.
- I know.
- It's a total violation of my rights.
As you can see.
- Why did they dig up your garden like this?
- just want my w...
'm sorry. I just want my wife to be
found again alive, and I know she's alive.
- Really?
- And I want...
Can you write that if anyone's
seen something, if anyone's...
...anything, they're to call you immediately.
- Sure. A tip-off.
- Would you mind if I...
Sure. Can you print a picture
of Magdalena too?
- Of course. Magdalena...
- Stidergren.
This is total nightmare.
But I have to be strong
for the children's sake.
- You'll have to excuse me.
- OK.
Good luck, now.
Yes! Bravo!
Well done!
Come here, boy. Come.
Ralf!
Come and look at this.
Jesus Christ.
Now listen, you just
get the hell out of here. Hear me?
This is harassment, for fuck's sake!
We policemen are like criminals.
We always return
to the scene of the crime.
Bastard!
Didn't you hear me?
Fuck off out of here, you bastard,
or I'll fucking kill you. Hear me?
- Me, too?
- Fucking bastard!
Jesus, calm down!
Get back inside!
Bastard!
Olle! Stop it!
Who do you think you are?
Sorry.
Things haven't been easy for him.
Are you the sheriff around here?
Go away.
We just want peace and quiet.
- Leave us in peace!
- Come on, Olle. Get back inside.
Come on, Jussi.
Kurt, can you stop a second?
I want a word with you.
Kurt, stop, please.
- What do you think you're doing?
- I'm taking a walk.
Almost 10,000 steps.
Olle Stdergren just called and said
you were standing there staring at his house.
That's right.
I did take that detour.
Really? You know that's
called stalking, persecution.
I might have to issue a restraining order.
It's embarrassing, Kurt.
That's what it is.
Right now, I feel like
you're the one stalking me.
Jesus Christ, you're being so childish!
Welcome, one and all!
Alll can say is at last...
...we're standing here with our new field.
We've fund-raised and hassled
and nagged the council...
...and now it's here, under my feet.
Thanks, once again, to all of you...
...who've put soccer
back on the map in Ystad again.
Thanks.
Time for kickoff!
- It'll be fun for you to play on this field, right?
- Yeah, if I get on the team.
What?
Come on, you're good.
Of course you'll get on the team.
What do you know?
Is there something wrong with the turf?
Yes, the Poles have been careless.
- The whole place is a fuck-up.
- Really?
We should've had a stand over there...
...but we couldn't afford it after the break-in.
What break-in?
There was a break-in here recently.
Our entire cashbox was emptied.
And what did you do?
Came and looked. That's all.
- Was it two young officers that came?
- Yes.
- How much cash was in it?
-20,000.
The kids had worked hard for that.
Look!
Are you blind?
OK;, thanks.
- There's a loose bit here.
- Loose?
Why didn't you tell me
that there was a break-in here?
Because it was just a normal break-in.
- Their funds were stolen.
- But nothing else...
Shut up, get out onto the field
and tell them to hold off the game.
- Katarina?
- Katarina, it's Kurt.
Now I want you to listen to me,
because this is damn important.
I"m at the opening, and I want you
to issue an emergency warrant.
We have to remove the turf.
Tear up the new turf?
You heard right, yes.
We have to remove the turf.
Come on, get a grip, Kurt.
No, it's not enough
that you feel certain, Kurt.
No.
Martinsson, get Svartman
and come down to the soccer field.
We have to call off the game.
Tell the guys to sit over there.
Go and sit over there.
What's going on?
I can't explain why right now,
we just have to call off the game.
Everyone, we have to stop
the game for a while.
Meanwhile...
we'll have the prize drawing.
Great prizes to be won.
A match in England, a trip.
Ten minutes!
You want to call off the match...
...and remove the lawn because
it was laid by people working illegally?
I want the turf removed!
Removed!
- I thought you quit.
- I want it removed!
Look at Olle Stdergren.
Sodergren!
Olle Stdergren!
Stop him!
- Bring him back to the field.
- Not there. Not there.
Do you want to interrogate
Olle Stdergren, or should 1?
I think I'll pass.
Svartman, go and tell Jarek's wife
that we've found him.
See you around.
Stop it!
Let me go!
I must talk to my children!
My children!
They're my children.
I've got to talk...
Hi!
Daddy will be coming back soon.
Be good now.
OK, Theo?
Stay here. Promise me, OK?
- Will you be returning now?
- Yes, of course.
- I was right.
- And the rest of us were all wrong.
- Does it feel good?
- Yes.
And then you go
and win that trip to London too.
Congratulations.
You're going to go pop in a minute!
Magdalena's death, it was an accident.
I spoke to Olle.
He said she was going to leave him.
They had a huge fight on the stairs,
and they stood fighting over her suitcase.
Then a handle broke...
...and she fell down the stairs
and broke her neck.
- How do you know it's true?
- No, I don't know...
...but we're examining the stairs
and the suitcase now.
He then hid her in the basement.
He knew he'd be suspected
of throwing her down the stairs.
He did it “for the children's sake.”
He'd have lost them anyway
when he was discovered.
I know, but he panicked
and thought he'd get away with it.
Then Jarek broke in and discovered
the body in the basement.
Why did he have to die?
He got his 20,000.
He wanted more.
So when Olle and his neighbors beat him up...
...Olle returned and finished
the job with a stone.
What"ll happen to the Kids?
There's an aunt in Boras.
That's far away, for little children.
No parents, torn away
from their home like that.
It's terrible.
I thought I'd head home to walk Jussi.
5,000 steps.
- Want a lift in tomorrow?
- No, thanks.
I have my step counter.
Look, thanks.
And that trip to London I won was for two.
And if I remember correctly...
...made a promise of company
to a certain someone.
Kurt, I'm not the slightest bit
interested in soccer.
I"m also finding it hard
to picture myself watching a match...
...without imagining bodies under the turf.
But there are other things to do in London.
I'd love to, but I...
The children...
Ask Henrik. He can come and spend
the weekend with them, can't he?
And you think he'd want to?
OK.
Thanks.
Nice footwork!
See you.
THE THIEF
Hi.
Would you like to contribute
to Ystad FC's new Astroturf field?
- Of course. Hi there, Elias.
- Hi.
Sure.
- How much are they?
-20 kronor each.
What do I win?
A trip to watch a league match in London.
- Two, then.
- OK.
- How many have you got there?
- I've got 24 left.
- I'll take them all.
- Oh, thanks!
- And you can keep the 20 change.
- Thanks! That's great!
- Thanks very much!
- Bye.
Dad, the door's open!
Fuck!
Anna, we've had a break-in.
Fuck!
The bastards!
Yes.
So you'll be here as soon as you can?
We all know what that means.
OK;, thanks.
Looks like you had a break-in.
I called the police.
Let's see if they turn up this time.
Hey!
Kurt!
- I just want to say thanks, or sorry, or...
- For what?
Elias told me you bought
all their raffle tickets.
Yes, yes.
- Are you sure it's OK?
- Of course.
You didn't just buy that many
because we know each other?
I mean even I, his mother,
haven't bought any yet.
I bought them because I love soccer...
...because I want to support the club...
...and because I've always dreamed
of watching an English league match.
- I see. Are you that much of a soccer fan?
- Yes.
Id like to go and watch Elias
when he's practicing and support him...
...but I never have the time.
He probably wouldn't want
his mom there either.
I can go along instead.
- Really?
- If I may.
Of course, sure.
If it's OK with you.
I dream of watching some soccer.
Have you seen anything?
Anything suspicious?
You too?
Is it bad?
- Cell phones, laptops, jewelry, everything.
- The same here. Fuck.
I feel like I've been raped.
At our place, they took Sara's big teddy.
- Really?
- Her teddy?
They turned her bedroom inside out.
A damn teddy.
I guess such people have kids too.
About damn time.
- Hi.
- Did we interrupt your coffee break?
- We came as quickly as we could.
- It's been more than an hour.
If it had been an ongoing break-in,
we'd naturally have come immediately.
It's the third and fourth in two weeks!
- Do you ever patrol here at night?
- Yes, we do. When we can, we do.
Let's be honest: you don't do shit.
Should we stand here discussing this,
or should we do our job?
- Two break-ins, right?
- That's right.
- Olle Sodergren?
- That's me.
Your house?
- Ralf Eriksson?
- That's me.
Cut that out.
Go upstairs and play instead.
They've taken the roasting thermometer,
the digital one!
What are they like?
A teddy bear and a roasting thermometer.
Yeah, it seems...
Camera, laptop...
...Grandma's jewelry.
Maybe you could sit down
in peace and quiet and write down...
No!
Aren't you going to take fingerprints
or DNA traces or anything?
Were you at home when it happened?
I just came back this morning.
The rest of my family's away.
Do you keep weapons in the house?
No, no.
I haven't got any weapons.
Their kind won't give up until they've
gone through every damn house in the area.
We'll have to set up a night-patrol rota.
And we should count up the hours
and bill the police for them.
Fuck!
If 1 could just get my hands
on these bastards!
- Shouldn't we leave that to the police?
- But they do nothing!
They do fuck all!
We're forced to pay tax...
...but that tax money,
those thieves have grabbed it for themselves...
...in the form of refugee support,
benefits and shit like that.
Olle!
- So we're on for tonight, OK?
- Right.
- By the crossing, at midnight.
- Yes, yes.
Sorry.
- Magdalena called, so...
- Is everything OK?
I wish I could say so, but...
It'll be all right. Come on.
- Where are you going?
- The car's ready.
- I just have to go and pick up some tools.
- Now?
Yes, now. I know it's late,
but I need them first thing in the morning.
- When will you be back?
- As soon as I can. Half an hour, tops.
Sarunia left her teddy in the car.
I'll bring it back with me.
So the training camp is in Falkenberg?
Yes, we're driving there.
- We've got the bastard.
- Are you sure?
Of course, I'm sure.
You can see for yourself.
- What should we do? Call the police?
- No fucking way are we calling the police!
Fuck, I've been looking forward
to this. Come on.
- Get him!
- Run!
Got you, you bastard!
That's enough!
Olle! Fucking hell, Olle, that's enough!
- Shit!
- Easy, easy.
- There's his car.
- Do you think he'll be all right?
He's lying there freezing to death!
Maybe we should call someone.
- He'll be fine.
- But it's cold.
Shut the fuck up!
Just chill.
What are you doing?
What are you doing now?
- What are you doing in his car?
- Looking for my stuff.
Check inside.
- Is this Elin's teddy?
- What?
There was a break-in.
Maybe he stole Elin's teddy.
Do you think Id buy a fucking
teddy bear like this for my kids?
- Well?
Well, then.
Let's forget it.
Come on.
Olle, come on.
I said come on!
Olle!
Home.
- Want a lift into town?
- No, thanks. I was thinking of walking.
- Aren't you fit!
- Yeah, healthy too.
Doctor's orders.
I got a step counter too so I can't cheat.
I take long detours to the recycling bins.
- OK. See you at the station, then.
- OK, see you. Bye, bye.
OK, if we can start with his name.
Jarek Kozyra.
Do you think you could write it down?
Thanks.
You don't think he's just gone home...
What are you saying?
I see you are married.
I see your ring.
If your wife didn't come home...
...if your wife didn't call...
- Well?
- Yes, yes.
Sorry, I was just...
- Of course, we'll look into it.
- Yes. Thanks.
How old is he?
I saw two vandalized bus stops
just on the way here.
Then we'll have to put cameras up.
That'll work.
Then they'll just go
and vandalize something else.
You don't mean...
...that we should waste resources
on some bus stops, do you?
Get rid of them.
- Morning.
- Morning.
OK. Report from last night.
The vandals have been having fun again.
Three bus stops destroyed...
...and a shop window smashed
along the pedestrian high street.
- All right.
- Three youths were seen running through town.
We know who they are.
Did they take anything
from the shop window?
- Mannequins.
- I see.
The rest of the bodies are down
by the recycling bins on Turbingatan.
From the mannequins, I mean.
Well, let's haul them in.
- You had something, Svartman.
- Yes.
A Polish woman was here this morning.
Her husband went missing last night.
One Jarek Kozyra, 32.
Left home in his car at midnight
and hasn't returned.
He's been missing for 9 hours.
They have two children,
a 6-year-old and a baby.
No pets?
What Svartman means, I presume...
...is that someone with small kids
doesn't just up and leave.
They're here from Poland
and working illegally.
What, so they should be less loving
and untrustworthier?
You mean “less trustworthy.”
You've got the license number.
Check the ferry crossings.
Why leave home at midnight?
The last ferry goes at 9:00.
- He went to pick up some tools.
- Where from?
I don't know.
Then go and ask his wife.
Isabelle and...
Maybe I could go.
I think she built up a little trust in me.
OK, then you can go...
...and probe her a little more
about their passports and 1D cards...
...and their relationship, finances, etc.
You know.
Raffle tickets?
To save the soccer club.
Support.
- Is it a boy?
- Yes.
- How old is he?
- Three months.
Let me get out of the way.
Do you know anyone who might know
where he went to get these tools?
- I'm hungry, Mom.
- Later. Be quiet.
There are a number of them
living in a house outside town...
- I'm hungry!
-...but I don't know exactly where.
But they might know
where he went to pick up the tools?
Yes, I think so.
- Tomasz! He was speaking to Tomasz!
- Tomasz.
'M hungry, Mommy.
There! Now eat!
Have you tried calling his cell?
His phone's at home,
and his wallet's at home...
...and his passport, everything!
Maybe I could take his phone
and wallet, if that's OK.
You don't have to, but it could help.
He took nothing with him!
What happened to Jarek?
What?
- What happened, Mommy?
- It's nothing.
It's nothing, sweetheart.
Everything will be fine.
Here.
- Buy some food.
- What? I have food.
I have a whole pantry full of food,
but I just can't bring myself to cook!
I cant do it!
I could throw together
some spaghetti bolognese.
Would you like that?
Spaghetti bolognese?
Hi. Tomasz?
You know, I worked out that
I put 20 hours a week into this club.
And whatdol get in return?
Some sneakers and a tracksuit.
What the...
I don't believe it!
Oh, what? Not again!
Look, I've got to go.
- Could you stay and wait for the police?
- Sure, I'll stay.
Well, Nyberg, found anything?
You bet.
One or two things.
Here you go. The boys' prints.
Check for a match immediately.
Id like to arrest them in school
in front of their mates.
That'll put an end to all this vandalism.
Nyberg, you realize we're tracking down
a few pranksters here, don't you?
- All crimes are the same to me.
- Yes.
- Bye.
- Bye.
It was this Tomasz
who told Jarek to come out here.
No, the owners aren't at home.
Aneighbor said they're away
while the house is being renovated.
Yes, around 20,000, I guess,
which the children had raised.
But they left the lunch vouchers
and the computer.
- Why didn't they take everything?
- I don't know.
It's your job to find that out, isn't it?
Someone's taken the money, anyway.
You'll have to take that up
with your insurance company, I guess.
- So you're just going to leave?
- There's not much we can do.
Dozens of people have access to this room...
...and our only lead is the broken window.
It takes more serious crimes than this
to warrant a forensic investigation.
That's just how it is.
No, no, she's with Grandma.
Sure, but Mom and I need to have
a little chat about some things first.
Look, Theo, can I call you back?
Good. Love you.
One, two, three, good-bye.
The cops are here,
so if we could come in and talk...
What? Here?
- Let's go inside to talk.
- Sure, sure.
Don't come in with your shoes on.
I've been cleaning.
We must get our stories straight
about yesterday.
You never know.
I checked out the house.
It doesn't look like he'd broken in.
Nothing was broken, not a thing.
But when it comes to the law...
...it doesn't matter if he's a damn pedophile.
We're in deep shit if we screw up now.
We must say the same thing,
give the exact same story.
And we can hardly say
we weren't out that night, can we?
It doesn't feel good to have to lie.
It's not about what feels good.
It's about what feels least bad.
I can't afford a fine,
let alone going to prison.
- Prison?
- Aggravated assault.
A guaranteed prison sentence.
This Tomasz said that the tools would be
in a plastic bag here in the hall.
A drill, some bits and some pliers.
Then he's obviously picked them up.
OK; I want you to tell me exactly where
you jokers have placed these things.
The mannequins.
We know it's you.
- Jesus.
- Hilarious.
It's Polish.
You can go now.
I thought I'd stay here,
if that's OK with you.
Why?
I like watching soccer.
Kurt speaking.
If you find a burned car
with its plates still on and no driver...
...the chances are
that something's not right, yeah?
Yes.
- Can you see any tools?
-we'll have a look.
He asked if there are any tools inside.
- A drill and some pliers.
- No.
Nothing at all.
OK; that's enough.
Thank you!
- We'll go with two goals.
- Kick off!
Let's go.
You'll have to be goalie.
Anders is sick.
'M a friend of Elias's mother.
Elias?
Oh, him, the new boy.
- He's good.
- They all look good to me.
We're just trying to get
some discipline into them.
But of course it should be fun too.
Is that the new artificial turf?
Yes, that's right.
Opening on the 14th of March.
You're welcome to come.
There'll be a match,
some fun for the kids, a prize drawing.
Excuse me, I just have to...
OK that's all.
Well played.
See you next time, boys!
- Well played, Elias.
- Thanks.
So it hasn't been reported stolen.
- No, not reported.
- No.
It seems odd
to get rid of a car by torching it.
And most of all, you don't leave the plates on
when you dump a car in the woods.
No.
- See you tomorrow.
- Have a good one.
- Good night.
- Night-night.
It seems like a great club,
don't you think?
Yes.
Good leaders.
You can meet some really...
- Hello!
- Hello, sweetheart!
- How did it go?
- Well.
- Hi, hi.
- How did it go?
It went fine.
- Have you eaten?
- I'll get a bite on the way home.
Don't you want to join us?
- Need a hand?
- It's OK.
Yes, you can take the water over
if you want and open the wine, perhaps.
Hanna, can you bring in
a couple of wine glasses?
- The nice ones?
- Of course. We have guests here.
There. If you can just hand me
that carafe... Thanks, great.
- So, Kurt, if you sit next to Hanna...
- Thanks.
- There.
- Excellent.
Time for my special lasagne.
The only thing Mom
really knows how to make.
Lasagne. That's it.
It's all she can make.
Thanks.
- So, Kurt, if I can have your plate...
- Sure, of course.
There's quite a bit of chiliin it.
And Elias poured some in too.
It's good.
- You like hot food, I take it.
- Yes.
Hanna, can I have your plate?
He's been incredibly negative
ever since coming here.
In school too.
He's withdrawn and quiet, they say.
He doesn't want to get involved in anything.
I see.
So I suppose it"s more...
...that I've been on at him
to take up some activity...
.50 he can make new friends.
As I understand it, you were a famous,
successful defense lawyer...
...and then you moved here
and became a prosecutor.
Why?
Well...
Why do something like that?
Yes, why do something like that?
That's your business.
I wanted to get away.
I couldn't risk bumping
into Henrik in court all the time.
It wouldn't have worked.
Not professionally, not privately,
or in any other way.
So...
...decided to move,
and then this job came up.
I see.
No...
...don't think you do.
Do you know what?
I feel like a selfish villain...
...who snatched the kids
and fled with them here.
It's not easy explaining things to the kids.
I can't really tell them...
...that I wanted to move
to avoid seeing their dad.
- May 1?
- Yes.
I have to take this.
Kurt speaking.
I'll be right there.
Bye.
I"m sorry. Nyberg.
I have to...
Pity.
- A delicious dinner. Thank you.
- Thank you, Kurt.
Listen, if you win that trip in the raffle...
...you know who
to take with you to London.
Good, thanks.
Bye.
Oh, sorry, Jussi.
Come on.
Are you angry with me?
Kurtie's had some wine,
so we'll have to walk home.
Hi!
Have you cycled here?
Well, well!
No way am I leaving this
outside on the street.
It's all I've got left of my father's.
Well, how's it going?
I've been having a little look
at that cell phone...
...that Svartman wisely brought in.
It seems he's a keen photographer.
- What's that?
- I wondered that too.
So I imported it onto the computer, and...
It's a poor camera in poor light, but...
...she doesn't look that healthy.
Could it be another mannequin?
Just some stupid joke?
A joke or not... I don't know.
I think it looks like a person...
...who's dead.
Bring up that picture again.
- Can we see where it was taken?
- No, the phone is too old for that.
But these were the last four photos he took.
Before that, it's just family snapshots.
- A baby?
- Yes.
Then it's recent.
I see.
So we'll have to search every single place
this man has access to.
Yes?
What?
Greetings from Katarina.
Warrants to search Jarek's home
and the place where his friends live.
We'll search for whatever
we can link to this photo...
...and to all the recent break-ins.
This is a search warrant.
- But...
- It's OK, Maja. We'll be careful.
But he's not here. I promise!
Id like you to tell me
when these pictures were taken.
What?
Where did you get those from?
Just answer my question.
I've got no idea.
I was asleep.
Ask those guys
who were on patrol that night.
- On patrol?
- Yes.
Some of us wanted to do a little night patrolling
because of all the break-ins there have been here.
- Right, OK. Thanks.
- Thanks.
We just heard that some of the neighbors
around here operate a night patrol.
- Was anyone out that night?
- According to him, yes.
- Could he give any names?
- Yes.
Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself before.
Kurt Wallander, Ystad police.
Right, I see.
What happened?
I just have a few questions.
We're talking to everyone in the area.
- Come in.
- Thanks.
- Freshly painted?
- Yes.
Come on out, kids.
- Have you got a moment?
- Sure.
- You were out on patrol the other night.
- That's right.
- See anything special?
- No. Nothing.
Where did you go?
Around the houses?
Yes, exactly, but we saw nothing.
- Were you out all night?
- Yes.
- Until when?
-4:00, 4:30.
Is there no key to this?
- Do you have to shout?
- Yes, I do.
I'll go and ask her.
She says that Jarek has it.
- Oh, what...
- An envelope full of cash.
At least 20,000.
Ask the biddy if she knows
where it comes from.
Her name's Maja.
You're a social worker
in a policeman's body, you know.
Surgery might help.
- So there were three of you.
- Yes.
Me, and my neighbours Peter Andersson...
...and Olle Stdergren
who lives just across the road.
So it was you three who went out
on patrol the night before last.
Yes.
Did anything special happen?
No. Like what?
I have no idea.
It was calm.
You saw no car, no one walking a dog,
no sound that you heard...
No.
In fact, I don't think
I can remember anything.
Was it a clear night?
I can't remember.
- Did you hear any fireworks?
- Fireworks?
The boat club was celebrating some jubilee...
...the night before last with a firework display.
- Yes... maybe. It's possible.
- But you're not sure.
I think I remember some fireworks.
But only the bangs.
- What happened?
- Well, we're not quite sure.
You did almost nothing about the break-ins.
What's so important now?
We're inquiring into a missing person
and a suspected murder.
- When did you get back that night?
- I can't remember.
Yeah, you came home... It wasn't that late.
It was around 1:00 a.m., I think.
Really?
Right.
Thanks for your help.
- And I'll see you on Saturday.
- Saturday?
- Yes. The match.
- Of course.
Thank you.
Thanks.
Hi, Karin!
I hardly recognized you
without the white coat.
Can you come and look at this picture?
I can enlarge it like this,
but it doesn't make it much clearer.
- What do you want to know?
- Everything you can get from this picture.
- What did they ask you?
- I told them what we agreed on.
I just feel a bit uneasy about Olle.
Magdalena stayed with us
for a few days before she left.
He's been beating her and all that.
Shit.
Who'd have thought it?
By the way, do you recall
any fireworks that night?
- Fireworks?
- There was a firework display.
Here he comes.
- Olle!
- Coming.
Three men form a vigilante group
and go on patrol...
...on the same night
the Polish man disappears.
In the same place where the tools were.
And the tools had been picked up.
We know that from that... Tomas.
Tomasz.
That house the Poles are staying in is clean.
All they seem to do there is work,
sleep and shit. It's a total monastery there.
And the neighbours, Peter and Ralf,
were home before 1:00 a.m.
Their wives confirmed that.
And according to Jarek's wife,
he left home at 12:15.
If you're out hunting burglars,
why come home so early?
It sounds...
- Sure, but did you ask him?
- No.
I went with the fireworks thing,
so we'll see what that gives.
- What did you find at Jarek's place?
- An envelope containing 20,000.
It was locked away.
His wife knew nothing about the money.
Sorry, but what's the “firework thing”?
An interview trick.
You plant a false observation.
Yeah, so if someone else mentions
the fireworks that evening...
...we know they're fabricating their story.
- So there were no fireworks.
- Well done!
- This is my colleague.
- But what the hell?
Who wouldn't remember
a firework display? I know I would.
Don't be too sure.
Not if you're playing Monopoly
or killing someone...
...or getting a blow job.
- OK.
- Wait.
- Didn't he say he was out all night?
- Who?
- Olle said he was out all night.
- That's right. Till 4:00 or 5:00 a.m.
Hang on a second.
I'll just get this.
Kurt here.
Good.
Great.
The dog team's arrived.
Let's pull in Olle.
He's the only one with no alibi.
Pick him up in a patrol car...
...and I'll see him at the station.
Oh, Kurt, good.
I don't quite know what to do. I...
I mean, Elias has a match tonight
and I promised to give him a lift...
...but now something's come up,
so I don't know...
- Would you...
- Sure. Of course.
- Are you sure?
- Yes, yes.
Listen...
You couldn't take Hanna too, could you?
Well, yes, of course.
- You're an angel, you know that?
- OK.
Thanks, thanks.
Bye. I'll be in touch.
Well, well, well.
Your children are in safe hands...
.50 you can go and see them if necessary.
And I'd also like to say
that you're not being detained.
This is just an interview.
- So this is how you treat your witnesses?
- What do you mean?
Coming with a police car and picking me up
in front of the whole development.
I'll look into how you were brought in.
“Brought in”?
I'd have come voluntarily.
All you had to do was call, as you well know.
The time is 3:45.
Kurt Wallander commencing
the interview with Olle S6dergren...
...concerning the disappearance of Jarek Kozyra...
...on the night of the 16th of November.
Do you understand what I have just said?
I'll ask again.
Do you understand what I have just said?
Yes.
In a previous conversation...
...you said that you came home
between 4:00 and 5:00 a.m...
...on the 16th of November...
...after you and your neighbours
had patrolled your development.
- Did I say that?
- Yes.
But it's not true.
I came home just before 1:00 a.m.
I must have misunderstood the question.
How did you interpret the question then?
That...
...was asked when I went to sleep.
So you went to sleep at around 4:00 or 5:00?
I don't know.
I didn't look at the time
when I was dropping off.
- When did you get home?
- Just before 1:00 a.m.
- When did your shift start?
- About 11:30.
- Can anyone verify that?
- Yes, Ralf and Peter.
- I mean someone at home.
- My wife's away.
She's at her parents'.
- Since when?
- Last Saturday.
We had a fight, and she left.
- See. And the children?
- They were with my parents.
So you were alone.
We're getting a divorce,
so things aren't so easy right now.
Sorry to hear it.
During this hour and a half
that you were on patrol...
...what happened exactly?
Nothing much happened.
I mean, where did you go,
what did you talk about...
...what did you see,
what was the weather like?
Every little detail could be useful.
Yes.
There were fireworks.
We noticed that.
I see.
It was...
We didn't see them.
We heard... We heard them.
Was that the first thing
that happened when you left home?
No, it was later.
We met, and then we split up.
But you said “we” heard fireworks.
Yes.
I guess the others heard them too.
So you split up
and then rejoined each other...
...or what?
We...we...
We met up again and then went home.
And you talked
about the fireworks that you'd heard.
Yes, I suppose that we must have.
We must have mentioned it to each other.
Your patrol didn't last that long.
That seems strange to me. I mean,
burglars don't go to bed at 1:00 a.m.
- Would you like some coffee?
- No, I'm fine, thanks. I'm fine.
I'll go and have one.
Here we've got a bunch of spy cameras...
...which we control with this joystick.
So if we move it to the side,
we can see the whole parking lot.
Look. Here come two chicks.
Let's follow them.
They found the tools.
Nyberg's there.
This would have been so much easier...
...if those two other neighbors
didn't have such a watertight alibi.
If they suspected a burglar and beat him up...
...hid the body and the car...
...they wouldn't have had the time.
And then this other body.
What the hell's that all about?
What if their wives are lying?
Nyberg here.
A couple of hundred meters
from the development...
...in a little patch of trees.
Yes.
Good. Cordon off the area and bring it in
at once, and we'll put a watch on it.
Bye.
That was Nyberg.
He found traces of a scuffle
and leaves with blood on them.
-“Scuffle”?
- That's how he speaks.
Fight, in other words.
We've checked out this story
about the fireworks...
...and there weren't any that night.
We know that now.
This is starting to try my patience, Olle...
...and I don't know where
you think all this will get you...
...but it all seems so crazy.
You're there to scare away burglars
and call the whole thing off at 1:00 a.m.?
None of you seem simpleminded,
least of all you.
You're a doctor.
Are you just as careless then?
We saw a burglar.
You saw a burglar?
We saw a man who broke into a house
and we scared him off.
That's all.
He saw us, ran off,
and we considered the job done.
Why haven't you told us this before?
None of you has said anything.
It was a low-life bastard...
...who's been terrorizing us
with break-ins since the early summer...
...and what resources are you putting into it?
Fuck all!
But when a criminal suffers,
boy, do you kick ass!
He wasn't a criminal.
It was no break-in.
He was a workman who was
at your development to pick up some tools.
- In the middle of the night.
- Apparently.
And now I'd like to know exactly...
...how this man has suffered.
We grabbed him,
tried to hold him down.
We tried to hold him,
50 you could come and arrest him.
But he went for us,
and so we started to beat him.
Quite badly.
But we left him there.
He wasn't dead.
He was damn well far from dead.
We hit him, but we didn't kill him.
We left him there and went away.
And that's all I have to say about it.
Interview concluded.
- Are you going to lock me up now?
- No, you're free to go.
You can go home,
but you mustn't leave the area.
Hi. I came as quickly as I could.
- You had something to show me?
- Yes. In the basement.
Come.
This.
I don't know what this is.
None of it is ours.
Well, well, well.
They certainly had things to discuss.
Well, I've had a little look...
Hey, now we're starting to see something.
- I had to work on it, too.
- I can see that.
So it's a woman...
...anywhere between 30 and 45,
perhaps older...
...but no younger than 30.
Mousy hair, looks highlighted.
I can't say much about the cause of death...
...but there are marks on her throat.
If she's dead, the killer took care of her
immediately after death...
...which means he must have
planned the murder...
...and wrapped her up in plastic immediately.
That's all I can say without a body.
You say she's dead.
Can we be certain that she's dead?
All l can say is that she looks dead.
One's missing and one looks dead.
What about the plastic?
Could it be the kind of plastic sheeting
you use when you're painting?
Yes, that's very possible.
I have to go to a game, I'm afraid.
Can I take these pictures
and return them tomorrow?
I'll see you then.
Thanks.
What else could I have done?
Those fireworks you mentioned...
There were no fireworks that night.
There were no damn fireworks!
- And so it all came pouring out, right?
- What could I have said?
You could have said any fucking thing,
you stupid fucking moron!
- OK, calm down.
- What else did you say?
That you stood watching
while we beat him up?
That you tried to get us to stop?
Is that it?
I just told them how it was.
You know, I think you're lying.
As I recall, you laid into him,
you fucking psycho!
- I said “we”, nothing else.
- It was you!
- Yeah, you completely lost it.
- We all lost it that night, right?
You're the only one of us
who's beaten his wife.
- What...
- And that'll get out. You can count on that.
Everyone around here knows about it.
I've never “beaten” Magdalena.
OK. Get out of my car.
Now get out of my car.
You make me sick.
Can you get out of my car?
Hear me?
Get out of the car, now!
I can't stand that asshole.
He makes my flesh crawl.
OK, we'll tell them that
we've been trying to cover up for him.
He flipped out
and beat the shit out of the guy...
...and then we stopped him.
Sure, good.
That's settled then.
OK, bye.
Hi.
Sorry we're late.
I've just spoken to the other team
and have some bad and some good news.
- Which would you like to hear first?
- The bad news.
The bad news is that the match is off.
But the good news is that...
...we won the match!
Can't we play the parents instead?
Well, parents, what do you say?
Should we thrash the boys?
I said, should we thrash the boys?
- Come on!
- Let's do it!
- Aren't you playing?
- No, it's parents against the boys.
- But you said you played in division 2.
- Yeah, but that was ages ago.
Forget it, then.
Hey, Elias...
I'm in.
What the hell?
- Your dad's shit, isn't he?
- He's not my dad.
Hell.
I'll pay for this tomorrow.
Me and Peter,
we've got something to tell you.
About that evening.
It wasn't at all like Olle said it was.
Me and Peter didn't beat up that guy.
It was Olle.
We finally pulled him off
and we were trying to help him.
He's had it tough at home,
with his family and...
- It was really stupid of us.
- I understand.
Come over to the station tomorrow,
and we can take your statement then.
Tomorrow? Both of us?
By the way, Ralf...
...when you redecorated,
what did you cover the floor with?
- Plastic or normal paper?
- Plastic.
OK. Thanks.
- Hi.
- It's Janne.
Have you finished watching soccer?
I haven't been watching soccer.
I've been playing it.
- Really?
- Yes. What do you want?
We've been at Jarek's place.
And his basement is full of stolen goods.
- Shit.
- You said it. Bye.
Good night, Theo.
Mommy will be here soon.
- It'd be nice to get some grub now, right?
- Yeah.
I can understand that.
- Hi, Dad!
- Hi, Elias, hi! How did it go?
- We won!
- That's great!
- Did you play too?
- They made me be the ref.
My legs really ache.
We played the parents,
and he scored an own goal.
- Who's he?
- Oh, dear.
- Have you sprained your ankle?
- It's OK.
- Hi, sweetheart. How did it go?
- Fine.
Hi!
- You're Kurt, right?
- Yes.
- I'm Henrik. I"m the father of...
- Elias.
That's right. I heard that
you joined in the game.
- Gave it your all, I see!
- Yeah.
- I should go home and clean up.
- can see why.
I just want to thank you
for doing this for Elias.
It's been ages since I saw him so happy.
- Good.
- Thanks.
- I saw that the lights were on.
- Comein.
I just want to say that...
...I should have told you
that Henrik was here.
That I... Now it feels
as if I'm trying to hide something.
I don't know.
Anyway, I'm not. I...
We just needed time to talk
without the kids...
...without one of us hanging up.
I mean, he's staying at a hotel.
He's going back tomorrow.
- Can I offer you something? A glass of wine?
- No, thanks.
I should get back to the kids.
Maybe one glass, then.
Sit down.
I was just sitting here working.
We do nothing else, do we?
You're not the type
to take work home, are you?
- No, definitely not.
- No, I can see that!
So did you resolve anything,
you and your ex-husband?
No.
It was pointless.
It's actually the first time
we've met since...
It feels really weird.
Really weird.
It does.
- Look, let's talk about something else, OK?
- Sure.
Tell me. How did it go
with that Pole, for example?
How did the house search go?
They found a load of money
that his wife couldn't account for.
And tons of stolen goods.
What was his name,
that man you interviewed, Olle...
Sodergren.
Does he live on the Akka development?
Yes, that's right.
On Nils Holgerssons Vag.
Then it was his wife I met, Magdalena.
Isn't that her name?
Exactly. Apparently
they're getting divorced.
In that case, I met her at the refuge.
He'd assaulted her.
- Really? Badly?
- Yes.
And visibly.
She didn't want to file a report, of course.
She just said she was planning to leave him.
Would you recognize her again
if you saw her?
I don't know.
Yes.
What?
- It might well be her.
- Might be.
- But you can't say for certain.
- No.
It has to be her.
I want...
I want to know about my kids!
Have you taken them...
Jesus Christ, is it too much
to ask to know where they are?
I've spoken to Magdalena's mother.
She hasn't seen Magdalena for weeks.
I don't want to be a killjoy...
...but we're talking about two murders,
and we haven't found a single body.
What are you talking about?
You yourself have just identified
the body as Olle's wife.
I have to see this from the defense's view...
...and all I can say is that I see
a strange picture of a woman we can't find.
- Taken by a criminal.
- Whom we also can't find.
We'll have to see what
the forensic investigation turns up.
And the questioning of Olle Stdergren.
He's yours. Six hours.
Hello.
I'm Asa Ljungberg.
Svartman?
I want you to put out a search
for Magdalena Stdergren's car.
Get a list of
and talk to all her friends...
...and colleagues and relatives and...
By the way, where did she work?
She was in charge of the display windows
at the Ahlens department store.
She was in charge
of those mannequins that you...
Yeah, right.
Now that's a bit weird.
Isn't it?
What is it my client's actually suspected of?
He already told you all he knows
about this man's disappearance.
The time is 10:45.
Kurt Wallander commences interview
with Olle Stdergren.
Also present, defense lawyer Asa Ljungberg.
Olle, you said before...
...that your wife went to her mother's
on the 11th of November.
- Is that the case?
- Yes.
This is the missing Jarek Kozyra's cell phone...
...which has a built-in camera...
...and it's clearly been used.
Now I want you to look at this picture...
...and tell me what you see.
- Take your time. Look carefully.
- It's Magdalena.
Your wife?
Olle, you're suspected of the murder
of Magdalena StGdergren...
...and Jarek Kozyra.
These are new allegations...
...and I demand to see the material
that you have on the case...
...before Olle answers any further questions.
Understand?
Id like a private word with my client...
...and I want access
to the investigation report.
- Now!
- Go ahead.
Defend him tooth and nail.
The timeis 10:50.
Interview terminated.
We'll break for half an hour.
Olle, can I have the phone?
Kurt...
...you know that she can report you for that.
If he's innocent and didn't know
that his wife was dead...
He knew.
The photo I showed him wasn't his wife,
strangled and wrapped up.
It was a mannequin
wrapped in plastic sheeting.
He said it was her because he knew
what picture was on the phone.
He knows his wife is dead.
He knew exactly what he'd see.
'M taking a walk.
Kurt!
They found Magdalena's car
in central Malma.
The parking fee was paid for 24 hours
using a card, her card...
.50 I checked all her transactions...
...and that was the last time
it was used, to pay for the parking lot.
12:05am.
But a withdrawal of 1,500 was made
here in Ystad an hour earlier.
- But no larger withdrawal?
- No.
Good.
He's no fool.
He wouldn't use his own money for blackmail.
And Magdalena's job?
Did you speak to them there?
Yes. Everyone's baffled.
She'd taken sick leave.
She reported in sick by text message.
And who do you think did that?
- Maybe him, Olle.
- Good work, Svartman. Good work.
So he must have driven her car
to Malmd and left it there.
There are no trains back to Ystad that late,
so he must have taken a taxi.
Check with all the taxi companies...
...and see if the ATM
was covered by a CCTV camera.
- Understood?
- Yes.
- Good. Bye.
- Bye.
- Nyberg.
- The clothes.
Check to see if there are any muddy boots.
Everything's newly washed
and clean and tidy.
There are some overalls in the shed...
...and a pair of boots
with drainage sand on them.
And some spades that
have been used for gardening here.
Is the garden freshly dug?
Yes, the lawn's just recently been laid.
You can lift it up.
It's the kind that you roll out.
- Roll out?
- Yes, roll out.
We're rolling up the whole damn lawn!
My client categorically denies
having any connection...
...with the murders of either
Jarek Kozyra or his wife...
...and he's also in shock after seeing
that photo that you showed him.
Can't you see that he's terribly worried
about what might have happened to his wife?
And then you come along
and show him a picture of...
Well, I can't be sure of what.
Olle, can you say with certainty
that it was your wife you saw?
Hang on a second.
Who's leading this interview, you or me?
Answer!
I don't know.
I"m just so worried.
- You were in the middle of a divorce, weren't you?
- She's the mother of my children!
Your wife never visited her mother,
isn't that so?
I want this interview terminated this instant!
If this man wasn't a doctor and a Swedish
citizen with a name like Stdergren...
...it'd be a very different story.
That guy is guilty, he's a murderer,
and you let him off the hook! Jesus Christ!
We have no bodies,
let alone a weapon...
...and as for the motive,
I'm not sure your assumptions really...
Come in.
Excuse me.
I checked the taxi companies...
...and there was no call out
from Malmo to Ystad that night.
Unfortunately.
And the ATM wasn't monitored.
We checked Sodergren's phones,
both his cell phone and landline...
...and he's called his wife 167 times
since she disappeared.
167 times, Kurt.
Come on, we should widen our radar here.
Look, Christ, it's obvious
that the man is no idiot.
He doesn't touch her money.
He gets back from Malmo some other way.
He calls her phone feverishly.
The forensic examination
of his house turned up zero.
- Zero, Kurt.
- They're packing up as we speak.
We're looking
at a huge compensation claim.
Look, your blackmail theory doesn't work.
That 20,000,
where did he get that from?
He's got money,
but hasn't withdrawn any.
Setting aside all this legal shit...
...do you seriously think it's not him?
Seriously?
Katarina, hand on heart...
...can you look me in the eye
and say it's not him?
Yes.
- Look...
- Good, but I don't believe you.
We can't put more resources into this.
Until something else turns up,
we've got two missing persons.
Then I quit.
With immediate effect.
I'm taking my remaining vacation
and going home for good.
- Come on, Kurt.
- Off you go, Martinsson.
Now's your chance.
And tell Elias that I'll pick him up
on Sunday for the opening.
Oh, what...
Wait inside,
and I'll be right back.
Hi.
Daniel Fridén, £vening Post.
Is this your...?
Hang on.
Is this your house?
What happened?
Have you anything to say?
You can call me.
Here, take my card.
No, no, I can...
I can talk.
The thing is that my wife's missing...
...and I've been unfairly accused of her murder.
- I know.
- It's a total violation of my rights.
As you can see.
- Why did they dig up your garden like this?
- just want my w...
'm sorry. I just want my wife to be
found again alive, and I know she's alive.
- Really?
- And I want...
Can you write that if anyone's
seen something, if anyone's...
...anything, they're to call you immediately.
- Sure. A tip-off.
- Would you mind if I...
Sure. Can you print a picture
of Magdalena too?
- Of course. Magdalena...
- Stidergren.
This is total nightmare.
But I have to be strong
for the children's sake.
- You'll have to excuse me.
- OK.
Good luck, now.
Yes! Bravo!
Well done!
Come here, boy. Come.
Ralf!
Come and look at this.
Jesus Christ.
Now listen, you just
get the hell out of here. Hear me?
This is harassment, for fuck's sake!
We policemen are like criminals.
We always return
to the scene of the crime.
Bastard!
Didn't you hear me?
Fuck off out of here, you bastard,
or I'll fucking kill you. Hear me?
- Me, too?
- Fucking bastard!
Jesus, calm down!
Get back inside!
Bastard!
Olle! Stop it!
Who do you think you are?
Sorry.
Things haven't been easy for him.
Are you the sheriff around here?
Go away.
We just want peace and quiet.
- Leave us in peace!
- Come on, Olle. Get back inside.
Come on, Jussi.
Kurt, can you stop a second?
I want a word with you.
Kurt, stop, please.
- What do you think you're doing?
- I'm taking a walk.
Almost 10,000 steps.
Olle Stdergren just called and said
you were standing there staring at his house.
That's right.
I did take that detour.
Really? You know that's
called stalking, persecution.
I might have to issue a restraining order.
It's embarrassing, Kurt.
That's what it is.
Right now, I feel like
you're the one stalking me.
Jesus Christ, you're being so childish!
Welcome, one and all!
Alll can say is at last...
...we're standing here with our new field.
We've fund-raised and hassled
and nagged the council...
...and now it's here, under my feet.
Thanks, once again, to all of you...
...who've put soccer
back on the map in Ystad again.
Thanks.
Time for kickoff!
- It'll be fun for you to play on this field, right?
- Yeah, if I get on the team.
What?
Come on, you're good.
Of course you'll get on the team.
What do you know?
Is there something wrong with the turf?
Yes, the Poles have been careless.
- The whole place is a fuck-up.
- Really?
We should've had a stand over there...
...but we couldn't afford it after the break-in.
What break-in?
There was a break-in here recently.
Our entire cashbox was emptied.
And what did you do?
Came and looked. That's all.
- Was it two young officers that came?
- Yes.
- How much cash was in it?
-20,000.
The kids had worked hard for that.
Look!
Are you blind?
OK;, thanks.
- There's a loose bit here.
- Loose?
Why didn't you tell me
that there was a break-in here?
Because it was just a normal break-in.
- Their funds were stolen.
- But nothing else...
Shut up, get out onto the field
and tell them to hold off the game.
- Katarina?
- Katarina, it's Kurt.
Now I want you to listen to me,
because this is damn important.
I"m at the opening, and I want you
to issue an emergency warrant.
We have to remove the turf.
Tear up the new turf?
You heard right, yes.
We have to remove the turf.
Come on, get a grip, Kurt.
No, it's not enough
that you feel certain, Kurt.
No.
Martinsson, get Svartman
and come down to the soccer field.
We have to call off the game.
Tell the guys to sit over there.
Go and sit over there.
What's going on?
I can't explain why right now,
we just have to call off the game.
Everyone, we have to stop
the game for a while.
Meanwhile...
we'll have the prize drawing.
Great prizes to be won.
A match in England, a trip.
Ten minutes!
You want to call off the match...
...and remove the lawn because
it was laid by people working illegally?
I want the turf removed!
Removed!
- I thought you quit.
- I want it removed!
Look at Olle Stdergren.
Sodergren!
Olle Stdergren!
Stop him!
- Bring him back to the field.
- Not there. Not there.
Do you want to interrogate
Olle Stdergren, or should 1?
I think I'll pass.
Svartman, go and tell Jarek's wife
that we've found him.
See you around.
Stop it!
Let me go!
I must talk to my children!
My children!
They're my children.
I've got to talk...
Hi!
Daddy will be coming back soon.
Be good now.
OK, Theo?
Stay here. Promise me, OK?
- Will you be returning now?
- Yes, of course.
- I was right.
- And the rest of us were all wrong.
- Does it feel good?
- Yes.
And then you go
and win that trip to London too.
Congratulations.
You're going to go pop in a minute!
Magdalena's death, it was an accident.
I spoke to Olle.
He said she was going to leave him.
They had a huge fight on the stairs,
and they stood fighting over her suitcase.
Then a handle broke...
...and she fell down the stairs
and broke her neck.
- How do you know it's true?
- No, I don't know...
...but we're examining the stairs
and the suitcase now.
He then hid her in the basement.
He knew he'd be suspected
of throwing her down the stairs.
He did it “for the children's sake.”
He'd have lost them anyway
when he was discovered.
I know, but he panicked
and thought he'd get away with it.
Then Jarek broke in and discovered
the body in the basement.
Why did he have to die?
He got his 20,000.
He wanted more.
So when Olle and his neighbors beat him up...
...Olle returned and finished
the job with a stone.
What"ll happen to the Kids?
There's an aunt in Boras.
That's far away, for little children.
No parents, torn away
from their home like that.
It's terrible.
I thought I'd head home to walk Jussi.
5,000 steps.
- Want a lift in tomorrow?
- No, thanks.
I have my step counter.
Look, thanks.
And that trip to London I won was for two.
And if I remember correctly...
...made a promise of company
to a certain someone.
Kurt, I'm not the slightest bit
interested in soccer.
I"m also finding it hard
to picture myself watching a match...
...without imagining bodies under the turf.
But there are other things to do in London.
I'd love to, but I...
The children...
Ask Henrik. He can come and spend
the weekend with them, can't he?
And you think he'd want to?
OK.
Thanks.
Nice footwork!
See you.
