Wallander (2005–2013): Season 2, Episode 7 - Läckan - full transcript
The seemingly random murder of a jogger in woodland and the detonation of car bombs in central Ystad are but diversions to busy the police whilst a security van is robbed of 15 million ...
Hi.
Hello?
HENNING MANKELL'S WALLANDER SERIES
THE LEAK
Oh!
- Hi.
- Where are you off to?
To a party.
Is that so?
“The Association
of Senior Police Commissioners...
...hereby invites you
to its Annual General Meeting...
...to thank retiring members
for their services...
...and to welcome new members.
Buffet and dance
at the Ystad Saltsjobad Hotel.”
I didn't know
this was your sort of thing.
I've been doing it
for the past 30 years.
It's half tradition and half duty.
- Shall I help you?
- Please.
And today it's in Ystad...
.50 it wouldn't look that good
if 1 didn't turn up.
I've never thought of you as a man
of tradition and duty, exactly.
So who are you taking?
I wasn't planning
to torture anyone else.
You wouldn't be torturing me, exactly.
I'm doing nothing special today.
I mean,
these are really deadly boring affairs.
For an outsider, they're murderous.
Will there be champagne, perhaps?
I think so...
So, that makes you a failure,
does it?
All I'm saying is that
I don't want to still be in uniform...
...on the streets in 20 years.
What if everyone
thought like you do?
If everyone was so vain?
It's not the uniform per se
that's wrong.
Yes, it is. Too.
All right, it is actually quite ugly.
I agree.
But seriously...
Come on, seriously.
If everyone thought like you...
...the whole idea of the police force
would collapse, wouldn't it?
Someone must be able to cope
with working out in the real world...
-...on the streets.
- Right, and who's to thank them?
Take Svartman, for example.
How much does he earn?
That's not the point.
Wallander doesn't earn
a fortune either.
No, but a little more, at least.
He doesn't have to wear a uniform.
- What the...?
- Relax. It hardly shows.
Stop being such a goddamn pussy.
There, there.
Nice horse.
Easy now.
Oh, my God.
What's that?
There's someone lying
in the water!
Thank you.
Well...
This is one swinging party.
I think I'm going to need
another glass soon.
What?
Kurt!
- Long time no see!
- Hi.
Katarina, Sven,
dropped out of the police...
...these days in the private sector,
in the security industry.
Right.
This is my wife, Mette.
- Katarina.
- Mette.
- Kurt.
- Yes, that's right. Drop-out.
And I"m bloody glad I did,
let me tell you.
And I still get invited
to these little gatherings.
And Mette really felt like a party.
Are you sitting anywhere?
- We just arrived, so we...
- We thought we might...
Over there, perhaps?
You've got to be joking!
It's Monday Thursday.
Call Martinsson.
He'll have to go, he's on call...
Then someone ought
to let him know.
I can't get through to anyone.
Wallander, he's free.
I'm also free.
I've called Wallander on his mobile
and he's not answering either.
Isabelle and Pontus are out
on some course or something.
What shall I do, go there myself?
Sure...
You can take it on the way, can't you?
I'm going for a lamb dinner
at my mother-in-law's.
I've got my family in the car.
But sure.
I can pull over by a corpse
on the way to my mother-in-law's.
- No problem.
- Thanks.
You're the best in the world.
Tell that to my wife.
Cut it out now, Linda.
Here comes Dad.
We'll be at Gran's very soon now...
There.
- Daddy's here!
- Yep, Daddy's here!
We're just going to make
a short stop on the way.
A work thing...
What do you mean, “a work thing”?
You know. A work thing.
It'll just take a second.
No, I've never regretted it.
Good.
Being a policeman
is about as appreciated...
...as being a meter maid.
There's no one there to thank you
when you've done a good job.
And let's not mention the salary.
But there might be other reasons,
you know.
Yes.
Look around you.
How many would choose
to be a police officer...
...if they could choose again?
- Are you also in security?
- No. No, I've stopped working.
Sven earns such a good salary...
All I had left from my salary
was the tax.
Sven's also quitting soon.
We're planning to buy
a little place down south.
Move away for good.
Oh! Such plans!
It sounds wonderful.
Where are you thinking?
Don't know.
As long as it's hot.
That might be something for you?
Kurt?
You're a highly qualified
police officer...
...you could get any job
you liked in security.
I'll ask around.
And after a few years...
...you can take your wife
on one long nonstop holiday.
What?
Right. No.
You thought...
We're not married.
Colleagues.
And neighbours.
It's just today that I'm a “spouse.”
So you're not a police officer?
No, no.
I'm a public prosecutor.
OKAY
You can't park there!
Come back!
You can't just stop there!
What the hell's going on now?
Dad!
Patrik, come here!
We have two cars on fire
In central Ystad.
3701. We're on the E65
just west of Skurup.
Have you got the addresses?
The main square and the corner
of Hamngatan and Skansgatan.
- Is Wallander here yet?
- No.
Where the hell
is the fire brigade?
Martinsson.
What?
Another one?
We've got three cars on fire
in central Ystad.
- How was it?
- Kurt Wallander?
There's an Ebba
on the phone for you.
What the hell is it now?
Yes, hi...
Yes...
Listen, you don't have to shout.
OK, I'll be right over.
Calm down.
I"m on my way.
We have to go.
You too.
Sorry. There's nothing
I can do about it.
- Bye.
- We can meet again, can't we?
- Sure we can.
- Take Sven's card.
It's got our number on it.
OK;, thanks. Bye.
What's happened?
I'll tell you on the way.
- Strange to have to run off like that.
- Something's probably happened, I bet.
- What the...? Road works...
- What's all this? Road works?
Can you check it out?
- I'll go and have a look.
- There shouldn't be anything here.
- What the fuck's going on? Down!
- Down!
- Shit!
- Stay down.
What the hell was that?
It's a raid!
It's a raid, turn off!
0171.
We're on the E65
just west of Skurup...
...and have just witnessed
a raid on a security van.
3701.
Are you reading me?
Get the camera.
We must get some photos.
- You've got to get some photos.
- Stay where you are and wait for backup.
- What the f...?
-3701!
Stay where you are
and wait for backup.
Repeat. Stay where you are
and wait for backup.
All right, for fuck's sake.
Yes. Copy!
Where the hell are they?
They're leaving.
They're taking off.
What the hell are you doing?
They told us to wait for backup.
- Sure, but when will they be here?
- We can't just disobey orders!
So what the hell do you think
we should do?
Just let them go, or what?
They'll get away!
Don't be such a damn pussy, we said.
Come on, take it easy!
Take it easy.
Slow down!
Just calm down, for God's sake.
Pull yourself together.
Look out!
What the hell's he doing?
Slow down!
But they'll get away!
What the fuck's going on?
Reverse!
- What the...?
- Reverse!
And so the horses started to react to...
- Yes.
- Yes.
They got spooked
and started to play up...
Right.
- Come here, poppet.
- You have to stay in the car.
But Linda has to pee.
Yeah, yeah.
- So you got down from your horses?
- Yes.
And you went up to... and you touched
the corpse, or have you...?
Touched?
I mean, tried to feel
if it was alive or anything? No?
No.
Did you go up to it...
...and walk around
or did you keep a distance...
.50 to speak?
Yes, exactly.
Because that kind of thing
is good for me to be able...
...to tell our forensic team...
...who'll be examining the scene
of the crime later so I can tell them...
Axel, come here!
- ...so it's not been touched then...
- Don't go over there. Come here, I said.
No, not...
Come here at once!
Not over there!
Did you see anything else?
There were no other...
...no other person or anything?
No.
Can we go now?
Yes, just give me a moment.
Get into the car.
I'll be right there.
There, sweetheart.
Then I'll just take your names
and numbers.
- My name's Jonna.
- Jonna.
0739...
...88..
-88?
- Yes.
00:20:38,922 --> 00:20:40,549
.32,
Id like you to sit completely still.
- What are you going to do?
- I'm going to make a hole here...
...and then go in with a camera
to have a look around.
Don't move.
Now just shift a bit.
There.
Yes, that looks good.
It's all right.
It's all right, my friends.
It's all right.
It's a professional job.
Just the right amount
to blow up the doors.
And to judge by the tracks, they've
transferred the load to a transit van...
...and driven off towards the west.
We've set up roadblocks
in every direction.
But they've got a hell of a lead on us.
Twenty-five, 30 minutes.
I had those burning cars in my head.
Yes. Kurt here.
Yes.
Listen, can you speak up a bit?
OK. I'll be right there.
What is it?
Isabelle's crashed
and Pontus is missing.
Let's go.
Glad you could make it.
Can we go now?
OK, so you've got
your family with you? Cozy.
Yes. We're having dinner
at my mother-in-law's.
That was the idea, at least.
Yeah, off you go.
I'll take over here.
Hope it's nice.
Where's the body?
Over there,
on the other side of that hill.
- Bye.
- Bye.
- God, not a second too soon.
- I know, I'm sorry...
...but, Jesus, I can't just say
that we don't give a damn, can I?
Isabelle?
How are you?
Where's Pontus?
Check the car.
The car.
The camera.
The camera in the car.
It'll be all right.
Take it easy.
OK, we have to go now.
Nyberg?
- Yes?
- The camera.
Yes, that's it.
Shit.
They saw the raid.
And followed them.
- Is that the last picture?
- Yes.
It's the last picture.
All the bloody fires
have already been put out!
And I want all cars out
until we find Pontus!
Yes.
Good, thank you.
Good-bye.
Bloody idiots.
- Found anything else?
- Yes, but then I always do.
But there's nothing...
...to indicate that Pontus
was shot here, at least.
And you've tried his mobile?
Yes, five hundred times
in the past hour.
But no answer.
Nope...
But... call it again!
Call it again.
- Do it.
- What the...?
No!
Open up!
Help!
What the fuck?
Help!
Yes. Kurt here.
Yes.
How is he?
Is he on the way to the hospital?
Good. That's good.
Bye.
You big damn pussy.
I just wanted to give you these.
But first, a question.
What happened exactly?
Because I understand
you were given clear instructions...
...to stay put and wait for backup.
Or am I mistaken?
It was my fault.
They were leaving the scene,
weren't they, and I thought...
But you got an express order...
...to stay and wait for backup.
Or maybe you didn't hear it?
Yes, of course we heard it,
but we figured it'd take half an hour for...
Oh, right, so you heard it?
And you did the exact opposite.
Is that it?
Yes, but...
Don't you but me!
Don't you realize
what could've happened?
Damn kids.
What I actually
wanted to say was...
...that I'm very glad...
...that you're both OK.
- Thanks.
- Thanks.
Thanks.
Shall we take a walk?
Yes, come on, let's go for a walk.
Come on.
Do you know how much
they got their hands on?
15 million...
...according to SkandiGuard,
who were in charge...
...of the security team.
What about the murder?
- Do we know if they're linked?
- Not that we can see.
In that case, we'll conduct
two separate investigations.
The body was in a pretty bad way...
...according to Karin Linder.
He was shot in the head
by a high-velocity gun.
Svartman was the first on the scene,
maybe he knows more.
- Where is Svartman?
- He's off.
The fuck he is. We're running
two investigations simultaneously...
...and we're two men short.
Call Svartman!
As you know, Pontus also took
some pictures with his mobile camera.
This is Marko Lehtinen.
But what's interesting about him...
...is that he's the right-hand man
of this guy...
...who's called Leonard Belker.
He was doing eight years in Kumla...
...but then escaped
and is now on our wanted lists...
...but he's probably still active.
28 July 2002, in Mdrsta.
A heist worth 11 million.
- Svartman's on his way.
- Thank you.
Then, 25 August 2005 in Hallunda.
15 million.
And four days later in Akalla,
19 million.
- They're not exactly amateurs.
- No...
...but what's interesting about
Leonard Belker is how he operates.
He leaves nothing to chance.
His raids always come in pairs,
with a few days in between...
...and first he sets up something
spectacular to occupy the police.
And when things
are at their most chaotic, he strikes.
So we can expect another raid
in a couple of days?
I'd say we should be prepared
for that, yes.
Do you want a treat?
You're the nicest...
- Aren't you off today?
- Yes, I thought so.
Not to mention
what my wife thought.
- What?
- Nothing.
Grumpy old man.
What a grumpy old man, eh?
- But you're not a grumpy old man.
- Bye, Ebba. We'll be on the mobile.
- You're not a grumpy old man.
- Take care of Jussi.
The mobile?
I've heard that before.
- Hello.
- Why, Svartman! Hi there!
Right. Now.
This body in the river.
Where exactly was he found?
There. Eggelstad.
Yes, although
theoretically speaking...
...the scene of the murder
can lie some way upstream.
Can't you ask Linder
to get her skates on?
What if there's a link to the raid?
She'll be ready at lunchtime.
She...
She found something
at the scene.
A little thing.
- The perpetrator was a minor?
- Don't ask me.
But it seemed as if...
...an entire nursery school had been
running around there, she said.
She also said...
...that I should hand this over
to Svartman.
Wwhy, I...
And you can tell Linder
that I was off duty, actually.
What should I have done?
Locked the kids in?
Come on, look at this.
This is a huge setback for us.
Just last year
we put enormous resources...
-...into improving security.
- What did you do?
Well, we carried out a major analysis...
...of all our routines.
Here's a long list.
- But you can follow me.
- Good.
If there's anything else,
just come back and see me.
They're from the Ystad Police.
They just want to ask a few questions.
Yes. Of course.
- Kurt Wallander.
- Micke Sterner.
Martinsson.
As I understand it, you're in charge
of drawing up the transit schedules.
Yes. Though just
for southern Sweden.
Ystad, does that count
as southern Sweden?
- Look, if I'm to be completely honest...
- We're assuming that you are.
Well, this kind of thing shouldn't happen.
- And yet it does.
- Exactly.
It doesn't matter
how “secure” the system is.
There's always
a loophole somewhere.
Can you explain how you operate?
Yes.
Firstly, we always use three vans,
two of which are empty.
Then the schedule is encrypted
individually for each driver.
They don't even know themselves if
they're driving with empty boxes or not.
And you're responsible...
...for the encryption
for southern Sweden?
Let me tell you a story
from one of our competitors.
A few years ago, they were the victim
of a number of raids.
However they tried to improve
their routines...
...the gangs always knew
which transit was live.
It turned out in the end
that the leak was a cleaner.
Who knew the code?
The cleaner, an Indian...
...had studied
at the Royal Institute of Technology...
...and was an expert in encryption.
How can you protect yourself
against something like that?
As I understand it...
...you've increased your security
resources in the past year.
Yes, I've just been given
a new code lock...
...and we've had
this video surveillance installed.
OK.
Can we see the recordings
from the past month?
I don't think that'll be easy.
To be honest...
...don't think they keep these tapes
for a whole month afterwards.
Sorry.
If I"m not mistaken,
this should be the entire past month.
If you need to go further back in time,
just get in touch.
- Good. Thanks.
- Thanks.
Bye.
The bullet penetrated
the frontal bone...
passed through the left hemisphere
and cerebellum...
...and then exited
through the back of his head.
- How long has he been dead?
- A week...
...plus or minus a couple of days.
There's no water in the lungs...
.50 he was probably dead
before ending up in the water.
Can he have been murdered
somewhere else...
...dumped in the river
and the floated to Eggelstad?
Yes, that's very possible.
His identification
hasn't been easy...
...given that he's been in the water
a good while.
His fingerprints
weren't on our records...
...and I've sent his dental prints
for analysis...
-...but that takes time, as you know.
- I understand.
He was a fit man, around 55.
That's all I can say.
Anything else?
This was in his pocket.
Bye.
How's it going?
- Found anything?
- No, nothing.
It's pretty much just him all the time.
Not a single visit in two weeks.
No...
- What is he up to?
- Working.
Can't you play it
at normal speed?
Shit, that's online poker.
What the hell...?
I thought he was working.
- How long's he been doing that?
- Pretty much the whole time.
Is he a compulsive gambler?
With gambling debts?
That gives him
one damn good motive.
We can hardly arrest him
on suspicion of gambling.
No, but he's the only one...
...who knows the transit schedules
before they're encrypted.
And if he's got gambling debts...
...it's not unreasonable to suppose...
...that he's open to all kinds
of suggestion.
I say we wait and see
until we've got more on him.
Look...
Look at this, that came today.
Sven and Mette aren't the only ones
with overseas plans.
I got this today
from an old colleague.
He and his wife
have resigned their jobs...
...and are planning to move down
to the south of France. Read it yourself.
“Provence, two kilometers
from the sea.”
What a house!
How the hell can anyone afford
this kind of thing?
The private sector.
Went over to corporate law.
Earned a packet.
Maybe you should change jobs?
You know, the last time
I spoke to him...
...he'd been defending
some big building company...
...that had used a screed...
...that had given every single tenant
breathing problems, especially the kids.
Everyone had gotten asthma
and bronchitis and God knows what.
A clear conscience
makes the best pillow.
Yes. May they toss and turn
in insomnia for eternity.
Yes, but at least
they've got a fantastic house.
Yes.
400 disgustingly
fantastic square meters.
But look, can't you take up Sven's
suggestion about the security industry?
Then you can buy a house
and invite me down.
- See you.
- Yeah, see you.
- Svartman?
- Yes.
I've got a woman here who's called
five times about some car...
...that's apparently been abandoned
on her land.
- Would you be able to...
- But I'm on my lunch break.
Please?
You can get something
on the way, can't you?
Thanks.
- You're the...
- Best in the world, I know.
Shit...
Hi. Johan Svartman,
Ystad Police.
Christina Tham.
Yes, this is my land that you're
standing there spilling things on.
Here it is.
- Nice...
- Nice?
It's hideous.
Are you going to remove it now?
Now?
I made myself very clear on the phone.
I demand that this heap of junk
is moved off my land today.
I'm not sure that's possible...
It's not only possible,
it's exactly what's going to happen.
Would you like to talk to my lawyer?
What was your name?
Svartenbrandt?
No, Svartman.
SECURITY REGULATION
PURPOSE AND STRUCTURE
Sven...
Yes? Kurt here.
Hi, Svartman.
Then you'll have to ask her
to call the council.
All you have to do
is explain to her politely...
...that she can stick her lawyer...
A Volvo Amazon?
Have you checked
the registration number?
No, I haven't had time.
Ifit's your car, I suggest
that you drive it away.
Listen, this car is going nowhere
until I say so.
You can go now.
We'll be in touch.
The guy who was shot
had these keys.
Contact Nyberg
and the vehicle registration office.
The car's registered
to Harald Claesson...
...Guresgrand 1 A.
Good.
Let's check it out.
Kurt?
Come here.
See? He's marked out
a route on this map.
The cross there.
That's where we found the Amazon...
Say that he was out here orienteering...
...and then something happened here...
He gets shot,
his body's dumped in the water...
...and it floats down here
and ends up in Eggelstad...
...where we found it.
The question is,
what happened along the way?
Yes. I could go over and check it out.
It's good
that you suggested that yourself.
But you know,
that'll take a whole day.
A day in the woods
is just what I need.
But I'm talking work now, OK?
No damn picnic.
No, no, of course not.
This is work, this is.
- Good.
- Yes.
That's that, then.
Oh, my!
Hi, there!
There. Come in.
- She can smell dog on me, right?
- Yes.
- Is Sven at home?
- Yes, come in.
He's in the sauna.
I'll give him a shout.
You're doing all right,
I can see that.
Yes, I can't complain.
Really, I can't.
But it wasn't because of the money
that I quit the force.
But of course, the money doesn't hurt,
once it starts rolling in.
No, it was the time thing.
How does the saying go?
“He whose time is his own
is truly rich.”
And yours is?
Yes. These days.
I hardly ever work late.
In the force,
I was working the whole time.
Evenings, weekends, constantly.
Sure. I know, I know.
My marriage hit the rocks,
and it was my fault.
And there I was...
...in the end, without a shred
of my life left except for my job.
That's a mistake I won't make again.
Not with Mette.
No.
I've been given another chance.
She deserves all I can give her.
And you?
Haven't you thought
about getting married again?
Yes... The idea strikes me, sometimes.
You were the one...
...who carried out the security analyses
at SkandiGuard, right?
That's right.
A year ago.
We're looking a little more closely
at them now...
...in connection with the raid
on the security van.
Right, yes, of course.
It was their van.
I helped them and went through
their internal procedures.
Well, if there's a loophole,
there's often...
Did you come into contact then
with Micke Sterner?
Sure, I did.
He kept himself to himself...
...but seemed serious,
as far as I could tell.
- Why? You don't think that he...
- No, no, we don't think anything.
Yet.
Oh, here comes Mette.
Come here.
Come and say hello, come on!
Come, can I say hello?
I think she thinks I smell of dog,
is that so?
Did you have a good hand?
I"m sorry?
I mean, it must be hard to fold
when you've got a good hand, right?
- I don't see what you're getting at.
- No?
Do the words “poker” and
“compulsive gambler” ring any bells?
I'm no addict.
Have you got gambling debts?
No, I haven't.
On the contrary,
if you must know.
Poker gives me a steady income.
I'm reckoning on quitting this job
within the year...
...to become a full-time
professional poker player.
You can have a look
at my bank accounts if you want.
I've got no secrets.
I see.
No gambling debts.
He makes more playing poker
than we three earn combined.
Maybe that's what
we should be doing, then. Poker.
Emigrate south and just live.
What are you talking about?
- Nothing, it's...
- No, nothing.
OK, back to square one.
Hi, Nyberg.
- Hi.
- How's it going?
All right.
The lab has sent its report...
...on that explosive that blew up
the security van.
Nothing sensational there.
Detonator, remote-controlled, and...
...yes, at a signal.
Is it the kind that was used
for the previous raids?
Yes, but that doesn't necessarily
mean anything.
The army uses this plastic explosive.
It's easy to get a hold of.
But, you know,
there was something odd...
...the amount of explosive
and the primer.
It was horribly similar.
Thanks.
Thank you.
What would you do if you had
an unlimited amount of money...
...during your holiday?
Purely hypothetically, that is?
I don't know,
I'd probably do what I always do.
Two weeks on Iceland,
aweek's dig and a week's fishing.
It costs a fortune, but...
But if they called and said you could
stay as long as you wanted...
...because you'd gotten an inheritance
from an unknown aunt in America...
...what would you do then?
I'd go home
after my fortnight on Iceland...
...and do what I like doing best: my job.
Why?
No, it's just that I met
an old colleague from before...
...and he's got a lot of money...
...and he was going to retire early
and do diddly-squat for the rest of his life.
Sounds awful.
Did he inherit it?
- No. He earned it.
- I see.
Well, he can't have been
a policeman, anyway.
No, you can say that again.
I'll call you
when I've got a spare minute.
Later. Yes, good.
I"m lost.
Weren't you given an order
to go home and rest?
It wasn't an order, exactly.
A doctor's order, more like.
There's a difference.
Call it what the hell you like.
You were ordered to go home and rest.
Yes, I know.
But we just wanted
to check something.
Those cars bombs
down on the square.
There had to be tons
of witnesses, right?
Yes, but we talked to all those
we got a hold of.
Sure, but we figured someone
might have filmed them...
...and posted the films on the net.
Right, of course.
But, sure...
...go ahead, check it out, then.
And then go home
and get some rest.
- Beautiful, isn't it?
- What are they doing here?
Lame and crippled, they drag
themselves over here to work.
I think that's beautiful.
Sure, but they're on sick leave.
What if the union finds out?
What, the union?
What the hell have they got to do
with this? They're trainees.
- I can check it out, if you like.
- No... don't bother.
Wait, wait.
Look.
That guy.
Everyone's looking at the fire,
but he's heading away from it.
That's a... hang on...
...that's a Vespa Elite, an old one.
God, you're on the ball!
How come?
My dad had one of those
when I was a kid.
Check it out.
- Elite, with a “e” at the end.
- I know.
The Skane Scooter Club.
What do you reckon?
Could he be a member?
Yes.
There's the list of members.
Download it.
DOWNLOADING LIST OF MEMBERS
What were you doing between
1:00 and 3:00 p.m. last Thursday?
Me and the girlfriend were having
Easter lunch with her sister.
So you weren't out
with the Vespa at all?
No. I haven't got going
for the season yet.
No. Can I have her name and phone
number, your sister's that is?
Yeah. Sure.
- Did he have an alibi?
- Easter dinner.
- So...
- How many is that left?
Eight, if we stick to Ystad...
...but if we're to cover
the whole of Skane...
And that's what we'll do.
If necessary.
- Really? Will we now?
- Yes.
- I see.
- Hey, don't be such a pussy.
Hello?
Hi. Pontus Hdijer,
Ystad Police.
That Vespa out there,
is it your Vespa?
- What's this about?
- It's about a car bomb in town.
Right, read something about that
in the paper.
I'll need to know
what you were doing...
...last Thursday
between 1:00 and 3:00 p.m.?
Well, I wasn't torching a car, at least...
No, me and the wife...
...were at my parents' place
in Simrishamn having dinner.
Can I have their names
and phone number?
Helge and Birgitta Karlsson.
0414-121232.
Hey, that helmet, is it...
Freeze!
Don't move!
We have witnesses who saw you
step out of a dark blue Ford Fiesta...
...down at the main square
just before it burst into flames.
Shall I interpret your silence
as you refusing to cooperate?
You can interpret it
how you fucking like.
Al did was drive a car to the square.
And after that?
I got out of the car and left.
After you'd set fire to it?
Look, I had no idea that they
were going to blow up the car.
“They"?
Who are “they”?
I almost got fucking killed myself.
Who are “they”?
He doesn't know a goddamn thing.
All he says...
...is that he got 12,000 kronor
for driving a car to the square...
...from some contact
who he doesn't know.
That's how they work. Different cells,
completely isolated from each other.
We've got to have something
more to go on, haven't we?
Anything?
INVOICE
Martinsson?
Yes?
All this with InterSafe
and SkandiGuard...
...what do you think InterSafe bills...
...for all the work they do
for SkandiGuard?
You know,
security analyses and reports...
...and monitoring, CCTV,
code locks and all the rest of it?
A hundred and fifty thousand.
Two hundred. At least.
12:30 today, at the latest.
Shit.
Is Sven at home?
No, I'm afraid not.
I've no idea where he is...
I need to talk to him...
-...but he's not answering his mobile.
- see.
Is it important?
Yes.
I'll ask him to call
as soon as I hear from him.
- Could you?
- Of course.
It's important.
How are you feeling?
I've got such a headache,
I'll call him later.
Shall I get you a headache pill?
Yes, would you?
Hello?
Hello, it's Svartman.
It's Svartman.
Yes. I've been shot.
Svartman's found their hideout.
Come on!
Good.
They've got their headquarters
in here.
They shot at me.
Anything?
Yes, I've found a SIM card here.
It's totally empty apart
from this encrypted message.
DJ43AB.
That's something for Nyberg.
Yes?
But it's...
It's only half the money.
What the...?
It's not what we agreed.
Look, I'm supplying no information
until I have all the money.
What?
I have looked in the envelope.
What the...?
You have one new voice mail.
Hi. Kurt Wallander here.
Look, can you come up to the station?
I'd like to ask you a few questions.
As soon as you can, if possible.
Thanks, bye.
OK, so imagine that each letter...
...has a number in this alphabet.
I mean, A is, for example, 1,
B 2 and so on.
You can then apply plus one.
That makes AB
and B becomes C.
Then comes the hard bit...
...and I've left that for this machine
to try to solve.
It'll have to stand here...
...number crunching for a few hours
and then we"ll see if anything happens.
- Coffee?
- You bet.
I'll just take this call
and I'll be right with you.
Yes? Kurt speaking.
Are you outside now?
Good. Bye.
So, I'd just like to...
How are you?
Fine...
Well...
Id just like to ask you
a few questions...
...about SkandiGuard.
I love Mette.
And...
She was looking
for some peace of mind...
...after all the shit
she'd been through.
And in two years
I could give her that.
Now I've thrown her back
into insecurity.
It's so damn stupid.
You mustn't think
that she's in on this.
It's just me.
And I'm prepared
to take my punishment.
So you're the leak?
They contacted me.
Just when I'd met Mette...
Just as if they'd worked it all out...
At first I refused point blank.
Then...
Then the firm wasn't going
as well as I'd hoped.
And...
...they just kept on at me...
...and then here we are.
Good.
What do you know
about the next raid?
6718, we're in position.
Unit 1, in position.
Get ready to move in.
Well, well.
You'd better be right.
Jesus, yeah, it's right.
It's right.
Nyberg here.
Two figures
have just gotten off a bus.
Shall I send them away?
No, let them go.
The security van's on its way.
- Is it on its own?
- No, there's a bus there too.
The raid's under way.
- Go! Go!
- We're coming.
Everyone ready?
All units in position?
- What are you doing?
- Get out of here!
Go!
Hit the ground!
Get down!
Don't move!
Where the hell is he?
Kurt! The van's empty.
Shit!
Damn.
No, Molly...
Come here. There.
There, there.
You stay here.
What the hell's he playing at?
Out of the van!
Step on it!
Get out of the van!
That's it.
The radio.
Throw the radio into the van.
Be quick about it.
Mobiles.
Right.
Now get lost.
Get lost, I said!
Quickly!
Look...
...here we have the live one.
- Can we see its location?
- Yes, if the GPS is on.
It's brand-new.
There.
The coast road.
The harbour.
We have to leave.
- What have you got on?
- Hurry up.
Come on.
I'll take your bags.
- What are you doing?
- Come on. I said, come on.
Sven!
What are you doing?
We can talk later.
We'll have all the time
in the world then.
Mette?
Go away!
Sven!
Put down the gun!
Get out of here!
She's going to die.
I'm going to shoot now.
- No!
- I'll shoot!
No! No one shoots.
No one.
No one shoots.
Can't you just leave us be?
You know we can't just leave.
They have to take care of Mette.
I'll take care of Mette!
I'll take care of Mette!
Martinsson.
OK;, thanks.
They've just found
the security van.
Blown up and emptied.
He almost made me feel as if I was
the one who'd made the wrong choice.
Come on.
Have you heard any news of Belker?
Not a thing.
He probably made his way
to Germany or Poland by boat.
Interpol's onto it,
so we'll see what they can turn up.
God, they're so good together!
How long have you got her for?
Until Monday, as far as we know.
That's when Mette will be discharged.
Do you really believe
she didn't know anything?
I don't know.
She probably felt
that something wasn't right...
...but maybe she didn't do
anything about it...
...because the money was rolling in.
SO we can guess
that it's all over, then?
Yep...
...and so that's the end
of that dream.
Move abroad and quit working.
It's incredible
that he took such risks.
He must have realized
he'd be discovered.
He was in love, Kurt.
Not everyone's passionate
about their work.
.
Hello?
HENNING MANKELL'S WALLANDER SERIES
THE LEAK
Oh!
- Hi.
- Where are you off to?
To a party.
Is that so?
“The Association
of Senior Police Commissioners...
...hereby invites you
to its Annual General Meeting...
...to thank retiring members
for their services...
...and to welcome new members.
Buffet and dance
at the Ystad Saltsjobad Hotel.”
I didn't know
this was your sort of thing.
I've been doing it
for the past 30 years.
It's half tradition and half duty.
- Shall I help you?
- Please.
And today it's in Ystad...
.50 it wouldn't look that good
if 1 didn't turn up.
I've never thought of you as a man
of tradition and duty, exactly.
So who are you taking?
I wasn't planning
to torture anyone else.
You wouldn't be torturing me, exactly.
I'm doing nothing special today.
I mean,
these are really deadly boring affairs.
For an outsider, they're murderous.
Will there be champagne, perhaps?
I think so...
So, that makes you a failure,
does it?
All I'm saying is that
I don't want to still be in uniform...
...on the streets in 20 years.
What if everyone
thought like you do?
If everyone was so vain?
It's not the uniform per se
that's wrong.
Yes, it is. Too.
All right, it is actually quite ugly.
I agree.
But seriously...
Come on, seriously.
If everyone thought like you...
...the whole idea of the police force
would collapse, wouldn't it?
Someone must be able to cope
with working out in the real world...
-...on the streets.
- Right, and who's to thank them?
Take Svartman, for example.
How much does he earn?
That's not the point.
Wallander doesn't earn
a fortune either.
No, but a little more, at least.
He doesn't have to wear a uniform.
- What the...?
- Relax. It hardly shows.
Stop being such a goddamn pussy.
There, there.
Nice horse.
Easy now.
Oh, my God.
What's that?
There's someone lying
in the water!
Thank you.
Well...
This is one swinging party.
I think I'm going to need
another glass soon.
What?
Kurt!
- Long time no see!
- Hi.
Katarina, Sven,
dropped out of the police...
...these days in the private sector,
in the security industry.
Right.
This is my wife, Mette.
- Katarina.
- Mette.
- Kurt.
- Yes, that's right. Drop-out.
And I"m bloody glad I did,
let me tell you.
And I still get invited
to these little gatherings.
And Mette really felt like a party.
Are you sitting anywhere?
- We just arrived, so we...
- We thought we might...
Over there, perhaps?
You've got to be joking!
It's Monday Thursday.
Call Martinsson.
He'll have to go, he's on call...
Then someone ought
to let him know.
I can't get through to anyone.
Wallander, he's free.
I'm also free.
I've called Wallander on his mobile
and he's not answering either.
Isabelle and Pontus are out
on some course or something.
What shall I do, go there myself?
Sure...
You can take it on the way, can't you?
I'm going for a lamb dinner
at my mother-in-law's.
I've got my family in the car.
But sure.
I can pull over by a corpse
on the way to my mother-in-law's.
- No problem.
- Thanks.
You're the best in the world.
Tell that to my wife.
Cut it out now, Linda.
Here comes Dad.
We'll be at Gran's very soon now...
There.
- Daddy's here!
- Yep, Daddy's here!
We're just going to make
a short stop on the way.
A work thing...
What do you mean, “a work thing”?
You know. A work thing.
It'll just take a second.
No, I've never regretted it.
Good.
Being a policeman
is about as appreciated...
...as being a meter maid.
There's no one there to thank you
when you've done a good job.
And let's not mention the salary.
But there might be other reasons,
you know.
Yes.
Look around you.
How many would choose
to be a police officer...
...if they could choose again?
- Are you also in security?
- No. No, I've stopped working.
Sven earns such a good salary...
All I had left from my salary
was the tax.
Sven's also quitting soon.
We're planning to buy
a little place down south.
Move away for good.
Oh! Such plans!
It sounds wonderful.
Where are you thinking?
Don't know.
As long as it's hot.
That might be something for you?
Kurt?
You're a highly qualified
police officer...
...you could get any job
you liked in security.
I'll ask around.
And after a few years...
...you can take your wife
on one long nonstop holiday.
What?
Right. No.
You thought...
We're not married.
Colleagues.
And neighbours.
It's just today that I'm a “spouse.”
So you're not a police officer?
No, no.
I'm a public prosecutor.
OKAY
You can't park there!
Come back!
You can't just stop there!
What the hell's going on now?
Dad!
Patrik, come here!
We have two cars on fire
In central Ystad.
3701. We're on the E65
just west of Skurup.
Have you got the addresses?
The main square and the corner
of Hamngatan and Skansgatan.
- Is Wallander here yet?
- No.
Where the hell
is the fire brigade?
Martinsson.
What?
Another one?
We've got three cars on fire
in central Ystad.
- How was it?
- Kurt Wallander?
There's an Ebba
on the phone for you.
What the hell is it now?
Yes, hi...
Yes...
Listen, you don't have to shout.
OK, I'll be right over.
Calm down.
I"m on my way.
We have to go.
You too.
Sorry. There's nothing
I can do about it.
- Bye.
- We can meet again, can't we?
- Sure we can.
- Take Sven's card.
It's got our number on it.
OK;, thanks. Bye.
What's happened?
I'll tell you on the way.
- Strange to have to run off like that.
- Something's probably happened, I bet.
- What the...? Road works...
- What's all this? Road works?
Can you check it out?
- I'll go and have a look.
- There shouldn't be anything here.
- What the fuck's going on? Down!
- Down!
- Shit!
- Stay down.
What the hell was that?
It's a raid!
It's a raid, turn off!
0171.
We're on the E65
just west of Skurup...
...and have just witnessed
a raid on a security van.
3701.
Are you reading me?
Get the camera.
We must get some photos.
- You've got to get some photos.
- Stay where you are and wait for backup.
- What the f...?
-3701!
Stay where you are
and wait for backup.
Repeat. Stay where you are
and wait for backup.
All right, for fuck's sake.
Yes. Copy!
Where the hell are they?
They're leaving.
They're taking off.
What the hell are you doing?
They told us to wait for backup.
- Sure, but when will they be here?
- We can't just disobey orders!
So what the hell do you think
we should do?
Just let them go, or what?
They'll get away!
Don't be such a damn pussy, we said.
Come on, take it easy!
Take it easy.
Slow down!
Just calm down, for God's sake.
Pull yourself together.
Look out!
What the hell's he doing?
Slow down!
But they'll get away!
What the fuck's going on?
Reverse!
- What the...?
- Reverse!
And so the horses started to react to...
- Yes.
- Yes.
They got spooked
and started to play up...
Right.
- Come here, poppet.
- You have to stay in the car.
But Linda has to pee.
Yeah, yeah.
- So you got down from your horses?
- Yes.
And you went up to... and you touched
the corpse, or have you...?
Touched?
I mean, tried to feel
if it was alive or anything? No?
No.
Did you go up to it...
...and walk around
or did you keep a distance...
.50 to speak?
Yes, exactly.
Because that kind of thing
is good for me to be able...
...to tell our forensic team...
...who'll be examining the scene
of the crime later so I can tell them...
Axel, come here!
- ...so it's not been touched then...
- Don't go over there. Come here, I said.
No, not...
Come here at once!
Not over there!
Did you see anything else?
There were no other...
...no other person or anything?
No.
Can we go now?
Yes, just give me a moment.
Get into the car.
I'll be right there.
There, sweetheart.
Then I'll just take your names
and numbers.
- My name's Jonna.
- Jonna.
0739...
...88..
-88?
- Yes.
00:20:38,922 --> 00:20:40,549
.32,
Id like you to sit completely still.
- What are you going to do?
- I'm going to make a hole here...
...and then go in with a camera
to have a look around.
Don't move.
Now just shift a bit.
There.
Yes, that looks good.
It's all right.
It's all right, my friends.
It's all right.
It's a professional job.
Just the right amount
to blow up the doors.
And to judge by the tracks, they've
transferred the load to a transit van...
...and driven off towards the west.
We've set up roadblocks
in every direction.
But they've got a hell of a lead on us.
Twenty-five, 30 minutes.
I had those burning cars in my head.
Yes. Kurt here.
Yes.
Listen, can you speak up a bit?
OK. I'll be right there.
What is it?
Isabelle's crashed
and Pontus is missing.
Let's go.
Glad you could make it.
Can we go now?
OK, so you've got
your family with you? Cozy.
Yes. We're having dinner
at my mother-in-law's.
That was the idea, at least.
Yeah, off you go.
I'll take over here.
Hope it's nice.
Where's the body?
Over there,
on the other side of that hill.
- Bye.
- Bye.
- God, not a second too soon.
- I know, I'm sorry...
...but, Jesus, I can't just say
that we don't give a damn, can I?
Isabelle?
How are you?
Where's Pontus?
Check the car.
The car.
The camera.
The camera in the car.
It'll be all right.
Take it easy.
OK, we have to go now.
Nyberg?
- Yes?
- The camera.
Yes, that's it.
Shit.
They saw the raid.
And followed them.
- Is that the last picture?
- Yes.
It's the last picture.
All the bloody fires
have already been put out!
And I want all cars out
until we find Pontus!
Yes.
Good, thank you.
Good-bye.
Bloody idiots.
- Found anything else?
- Yes, but then I always do.
But there's nothing...
...to indicate that Pontus
was shot here, at least.
And you've tried his mobile?
Yes, five hundred times
in the past hour.
But no answer.
Nope...
But... call it again!
Call it again.
- Do it.
- What the...?
No!
Open up!
Help!
What the fuck?
Help!
Yes. Kurt here.
Yes.
How is he?
Is he on the way to the hospital?
Good. That's good.
Bye.
You big damn pussy.
I just wanted to give you these.
But first, a question.
What happened exactly?
Because I understand
you were given clear instructions...
...to stay put and wait for backup.
Or am I mistaken?
It was my fault.
They were leaving the scene,
weren't they, and I thought...
But you got an express order...
...to stay and wait for backup.
Or maybe you didn't hear it?
Yes, of course we heard it,
but we figured it'd take half an hour for...
Oh, right, so you heard it?
And you did the exact opposite.
Is that it?
Yes, but...
Don't you but me!
Don't you realize
what could've happened?
Damn kids.
What I actually
wanted to say was...
...that I'm very glad...
...that you're both OK.
- Thanks.
- Thanks.
Thanks.
Shall we take a walk?
Yes, come on, let's go for a walk.
Come on.
Do you know how much
they got their hands on?
15 million...
...according to SkandiGuard,
who were in charge...
...of the security team.
What about the murder?
- Do we know if they're linked?
- Not that we can see.
In that case, we'll conduct
two separate investigations.
The body was in a pretty bad way...
...according to Karin Linder.
He was shot in the head
by a high-velocity gun.
Svartman was the first on the scene,
maybe he knows more.
- Where is Svartman?
- He's off.
The fuck he is. We're running
two investigations simultaneously...
...and we're two men short.
Call Svartman!
As you know, Pontus also took
some pictures with his mobile camera.
This is Marko Lehtinen.
But what's interesting about him...
...is that he's the right-hand man
of this guy...
...who's called Leonard Belker.
He was doing eight years in Kumla...
...but then escaped
and is now on our wanted lists...
...but he's probably still active.
28 July 2002, in Mdrsta.
A heist worth 11 million.
- Svartman's on his way.
- Thank you.
Then, 25 August 2005 in Hallunda.
15 million.
And four days later in Akalla,
19 million.
- They're not exactly amateurs.
- No...
...but what's interesting about
Leonard Belker is how he operates.
He leaves nothing to chance.
His raids always come in pairs,
with a few days in between...
...and first he sets up something
spectacular to occupy the police.
And when things
are at their most chaotic, he strikes.
So we can expect another raid
in a couple of days?
I'd say we should be prepared
for that, yes.
Do you want a treat?
You're the nicest...
- Aren't you off today?
- Yes, I thought so.
Not to mention
what my wife thought.
- What?
- Nothing.
Grumpy old man.
What a grumpy old man, eh?
- But you're not a grumpy old man.
- Bye, Ebba. We'll be on the mobile.
- You're not a grumpy old man.
- Take care of Jussi.
The mobile?
I've heard that before.
- Hello.
- Why, Svartman! Hi there!
Right. Now.
This body in the river.
Where exactly was he found?
There. Eggelstad.
Yes, although
theoretically speaking...
...the scene of the murder
can lie some way upstream.
Can't you ask Linder
to get her skates on?
What if there's a link to the raid?
She'll be ready at lunchtime.
She...
She found something
at the scene.
A little thing.
- The perpetrator was a minor?
- Don't ask me.
But it seemed as if...
...an entire nursery school had been
running around there, she said.
She also said...
...that I should hand this over
to Svartman.
Wwhy, I...
And you can tell Linder
that I was off duty, actually.
What should I have done?
Locked the kids in?
Come on, look at this.
This is a huge setback for us.
Just last year
we put enormous resources...
-...into improving security.
- What did you do?
Well, we carried out a major analysis...
...of all our routines.
Here's a long list.
- But you can follow me.
- Good.
If there's anything else,
just come back and see me.
They're from the Ystad Police.
They just want to ask a few questions.
Yes. Of course.
- Kurt Wallander.
- Micke Sterner.
Martinsson.
As I understand it, you're in charge
of drawing up the transit schedules.
Yes. Though just
for southern Sweden.
Ystad, does that count
as southern Sweden?
- Look, if I'm to be completely honest...
- We're assuming that you are.
Well, this kind of thing shouldn't happen.
- And yet it does.
- Exactly.
It doesn't matter
how “secure” the system is.
There's always
a loophole somewhere.
Can you explain how you operate?
Yes.
Firstly, we always use three vans,
two of which are empty.
Then the schedule is encrypted
individually for each driver.
They don't even know themselves if
they're driving with empty boxes or not.
And you're responsible...
...for the encryption
for southern Sweden?
Let me tell you a story
from one of our competitors.
A few years ago, they were the victim
of a number of raids.
However they tried to improve
their routines...
...the gangs always knew
which transit was live.
It turned out in the end
that the leak was a cleaner.
Who knew the code?
The cleaner, an Indian...
...had studied
at the Royal Institute of Technology...
...and was an expert in encryption.
How can you protect yourself
against something like that?
As I understand it...
...you've increased your security
resources in the past year.
Yes, I've just been given
a new code lock...
...and we've had
this video surveillance installed.
OK.
Can we see the recordings
from the past month?
I don't think that'll be easy.
To be honest...
...don't think they keep these tapes
for a whole month afterwards.
Sorry.
If I"m not mistaken,
this should be the entire past month.
If you need to go further back in time,
just get in touch.
- Good. Thanks.
- Thanks.
Bye.
The bullet penetrated
the frontal bone...
passed through the left hemisphere
and cerebellum...
...and then exited
through the back of his head.
- How long has he been dead?
- A week...
...plus or minus a couple of days.
There's no water in the lungs...
.50 he was probably dead
before ending up in the water.
Can he have been murdered
somewhere else...
...dumped in the river
and the floated to Eggelstad?
Yes, that's very possible.
His identification
hasn't been easy...
...given that he's been in the water
a good while.
His fingerprints
weren't on our records...
...and I've sent his dental prints
for analysis...
-...but that takes time, as you know.
- I understand.
He was a fit man, around 55.
That's all I can say.
Anything else?
This was in his pocket.
Bye.
How's it going?
- Found anything?
- No, nothing.
It's pretty much just him all the time.
Not a single visit in two weeks.
No...
- What is he up to?
- Working.
Can't you play it
at normal speed?
Shit, that's online poker.
What the hell...?
I thought he was working.
- How long's he been doing that?
- Pretty much the whole time.
Is he a compulsive gambler?
With gambling debts?
That gives him
one damn good motive.
We can hardly arrest him
on suspicion of gambling.
No, but he's the only one...
...who knows the transit schedules
before they're encrypted.
And if he's got gambling debts...
...it's not unreasonable to suppose...
...that he's open to all kinds
of suggestion.
I say we wait and see
until we've got more on him.
Look...
Look at this, that came today.
Sven and Mette aren't the only ones
with overseas plans.
I got this today
from an old colleague.
He and his wife
have resigned their jobs...
...and are planning to move down
to the south of France. Read it yourself.
“Provence, two kilometers
from the sea.”
What a house!
How the hell can anyone afford
this kind of thing?
The private sector.
Went over to corporate law.
Earned a packet.
Maybe you should change jobs?
You know, the last time
I spoke to him...
...he'd been defending
some big building company...
...that had used a screed...
...that had given every single tenant
breathing problems, especially the kids.
Everyone had gotten asthma
and bronchitis and God knows what.
A clear conscience
makes the best pillow.
Yes. May they toss and turn
in insomnia for eternity.
Yes, but at least
they've got a fantastic house.
Yes.
400 disgustingly
fantastic square meters.
But look, can't you take up Sven's
suggestion about the security industry?
Then you can buy a house
and invite me down.
- See you.
- Yeah, see you.
- Svartman?
- Yes.
I've got a woman here who's called
five times about some car...
...that's apparently been abandoned
on her land.
- Would you be able to...
- But I'm on my lunch break.
Please?
You can get something
on the way, can't you?
Thanks.
- You're the...
- Best in the world, I know.
Shit...
Hi. Johan Svartman,
Ystad Police.
Christina Tham.
Yes, this is my land that you're
standing there spilling things on.
Here it is.
- Nice...
- Nice?
It's hideous.
Are you going to remove it now?
Now?
I made myself very clear on the phone.
I demand that this heap of junk
is moved off my land today.
I'm not sure that's possible...
It's not only possible,
it's exactly what's going to happen.
Would you like to talk to my lawyer?
What was your name?
Svartenbrandt?
No, Svartman.
SECURITY REGULATION
PURPOSE AND STRUCTURE
Sven...
Yes? Kurt here.
Hi, Svartman.
Then you'll have to ask her
to call the council.
All you have to do
is explain to her politely...
...that she can stick her lawyer...
A Volvo Amazon?
Have you checked
the registration number?
No, I haven't had time.
Ifit's your car, I suggest
that you drive it away.
Listen, this car is going nowhere
until I say so.
You can go now.
We'll be in touch.
The guy who was shot
had these keys.
Contact Nyberg
and the vehicle registration office.
The car's registered
to Harald Claesson...
...Guresgrand 1 A.
Good.
Let's check it out.
Kurt?
Come here.
See? He's marked out
a route on this map.
The cross there.
That's where we found the Amazon...
Say that he was out here orienteering...
...and then something happened here...
He gets shot,
his body's dumped in the water...
...and it floats down here
and ends up in Eggelstad...
...where we found it.
The question is,
what happened along the way?
Yes. I could go over and check it out.
It's good
that you suggested that yourself.
But you know,
that'll take a whole day.
A day in the woods
is just what I need.
But I'm talking work now, OK?
No damn picnic.
No, no, of course not.
This is work, this is.
- Good.
- Yes.
That's that, then.
Oh, my!
Hi, there!
There. Come in.
- She can smell dog on me, right?
- Yes.
- Is Sven at home?
- Yes, come in.
He's in the sauna.
I'll give him a shout.
You're doing all right,
I can see that.
Yes, I can't complain.
Really, I can't.
But it wasn't because of the money
that I quit the force.
But of course, the money doesn't hurt,
once it starts rolling in.
No, it was the time thing.
How does the saying go?
“He whose time is his own
is truly rich.”
And yours is?
Yes. These days.
I hardly ever work late.
In the force,
I was working the whole time.
Evenings, weekends, constantly.
Sure. I know, I know.
My marriage hit the rocks,
and it was my fault.
And there I was...
...in the end, without a shred
of my life left except for my job.
That's a mistake I won't make again.
Not with Mette.
No.
I've been given another chance.
She deserves all I can give her.
And you?
Haven't you thought
about getting married again?
Yes... The idea strikes me, sometimes.
You were the one...
...who carried out the security analyses
at SkandiGuard, right?
That's right.
A year ago.
We're looking a little more closely
at them now...
...in connection with the raid
on the security van.
Right, yes, of course.
It was their van.
I helped them and went through
their internal procedures.
Well, if there's a loophole,
there's often...
Did you come into contact then
with Micke Sterner?
Sure, I did.
He kept himself to himself...
...but seemed serious,
as far as I could tell.
- Why? You don't think that he...
- No, no, we don't think anything.
Yet.
Oh, here comes Mette.
Come here.
Come and say hello, come on!
Come, can I say hello?
I think she thinks I smell of dog,
is that so?
Did you have a good hand?
I"m sorry?
I mean, it must be hard to fold
when you've got a good hand, right?
- I don't see what you're getting at.
- No?
Do the words “poker” and
“compulsive gambler” ring any bells?
I'm no addict.
Have you got gambling debts?
No, I haven't.
On the contrary,
if you must know.
Poker gives me a steady income.
I'm reckoning on quitting this job
within the year...
...to become a full-time
professional poker player.
You can have a look
at my bank accounts if you want.
I've got no secrets.
I see.
No gambling debts.
He makes more playing poker
than we three earn combined.
Maybe that's what
we should be doing, then. Poker.
Emigrate south and just live.
What are you talking about?
- Nothing, it's...
- No, nothing.
OK, back to square one.
Hi, Nyberg.
- Hi.
- How's it going?
All right.
The lab has sent its report...
...on that explosive that blew up
the security van.
Nothing sensational there.
Detonator, remote-controlled, and...
...yes, at a signal.
Is it the kind that was used
for the previous raids?
Yes, but that doesn't necessarily
mean anything.
The army uses this plastic explosive.
It's easy to get a hold of.
But, you know,
there was something odd...
...the amount of explosive
and the primer.
It was horribly similar.
Thanks.
Thank you.
What would you do if you had
an unlimited amount of money...
...during your holiday?
Purely hypothetically, that is?
I don't know,
I'd probably do what I always do.
Two weeks on Iceland,
aweek's dig and a week's fishing.
It costs a fortune, but...
But if they called and said you could
stay as long as you wanted...
...because you'd gotten an inheritance
from an unknown aunt in America...
...what would you do then?
I'd go home
after my fortnight on Iceland...
...and do what I like doing best: my job.
Why?
No, it's just that I met
an old colleague from before...
...and he's got a lot of money...
...and he was going to retire early
and do diddly-squat for the rest of his life.
Sounds awful.
Did he inherit it?
- No. He earned it.
- I see.
Well, he can't have been
a policeman, anyway.
No, you can say that again.
I'll call you
when I've got a spare minute.
Later. Yes, good.
I"m lost.
Weren't you given an order
to go home and rest?
It wasn't an order, exactly.
A doctor's order, more like.
There's a difference.
Call it what the hell you like.
You were ordered to go home and rest.
Yes, I know.
But we just wanted
to check something.
Those cars bombs
down on the square.
There had to be tons
of witnesses, right?
Yes, but we talked to all those
we got a hold of.
Sure, but we figured someone
might have filmed them...
...and posted the films on the net.
Right, of course.
But, sure...
...go ahead, check it out, then.
And then go home
and get some rest.
- Beautiful, isn't it?
- What are they doing here?
Lame and crippled, they drag
themselves over here to work.
I think that's beautiful.
Sure, but they're on sick leave.
What if the union finds out?
What, the union?
What the hell have they got to do
with this? They're trainees.
- I can check it out, if you like.
- No... don't bother.
Wait, wait.
Look.
That guy.
Everyone's looking at the fire,
but he's heading away from it.
That's a... hang on...
...that's a Vespa Elite, an old one.
God, you're on the ball!
How come?
My dad had one of those
when I was a kid.
Check it out.
- Elite, with a “e” at the end.
- I know.
The Skane Scooter Club.
What do you reckon?
Could he be a member?
Yes.
There's the list of members.
Download it.
DOWNLOADING LIST OF MEMBERS
What were you doing between
1:00 and 3:00 p.m. last Thursday?
Me and the girlfriend were having
Easter lunch with her sister.
So you weren't out
with the Vespa at all?
No. I haven't got going
for the season yet.
No. Can I have her name and phone
number, your sister's that is?
Yeah. Sure.
- Did he have an alibi?
- Easter dinner.
- So...
- How many is that left?
Eight, if we stick to Ystad...
...but if we're to cover
the whole of Skane...
And that's what we'll do.
If necessary.
- Really? Will we now?
- Yes.
- I see.
- Hey, don't be such a pussy.
Hello?
Hi. Pontus Hdijer,
Ystad Police.
That Vespa out there,
is it your Vespa?
- What's this about?
- It's about a car bomb in town.
Right, read something about that
in the paper.
I'll need to know
what you were doing...
...last Thursday
between 1:00 and 3:00 p.m.?
Well, I wasn't torching a car, at least...
No, me and the wife...
...were at my parents' place
in Simrishamn having dinner.
Can I have their names
and phone number?
Helge and Birgitta Karlsson.
0414-121232.
Hey, that helmet, is it...
Freeze!
Don't move!
We have witnesses who saw you
step out of a dark blue Ford Fiesta...
...down at the main square
just before it burst into flames.
Shall I interpret your silence
as you refusing to cooperate?
You can interpret it
how you fucking like.
Al did was drive a car to the square.
And after that?
I got out of the car and left.
After you'd set fire to it?
Look, I had no idea that they
were going to blow up the car.
“They"?
Who are “they”?
I almost got fucking killed myself.
Who are “they”?
He doesn't know a goddamn thing.
All he says...
...is that he got 12,000 kronor
for driving a car to the square...
...from some contact
who he doesn't know.
That's how they work. Different cells,
completely isolated from each other.
We've got to have something
more to go on, haven't we?
Anything?
INVOICE
Martinsson?
Yes?
All this with InterSafe
and SkandiGuard...
...what do you think InterSafe bills...
...for all the work they do
for SkandiGuard?
You know,
security analyses and reports...
...and monitoring, CCTV,
code locks and all the rest of it?
A hundred and fifty thousand.
Two hundred. At least.
12:30 today, at the latest.
Shit.
Is Sven at home?
No, I'm afraid not.
I've no idea where he is...
I need to talk to him...
-...but he's not answering his mobile.
- see.
Is it important?
Yes.
I'll ask him to call
as soon as I hear from him.
- Could you?
- Of course.
It's important.
How are you feeling?
I've got such a headache,
I'll call him later.
Shall I get you a headache pill?
Yes, would you?
Hello?
Hello, it's Svartman.
It's Svartman.
Yes. I've been shot.
Svartman's found their hideout.
Come on!
Good.
They've got their headquarters
in here.
They shot at me.
Anything?
Yes, I've found a SIM card here.
It's totally empty apart
from this encrypted message.
DJ43AB.
That's something for Nyberg.
Yes?
But it's...
It's only half the money.
What the...?
It's not what we agreed.
Look, I'm supplying no information
until I have all the money.
What?
I have looked in the envelope.
What the...?
You have one new voice mail.
Hi. Kurt Wallander here.
Look, can you come up to the station?
I'd like to ask you a few questions.
As soon as you can, if possible.
Thanks, bye.
OK, so imagine that each letter...
...has a number in this alphabet.
I mean, A is, for example, 1,
B 2 and so on.
You can then apply plus one.
That makes AB
and B becomes C.
Then comes the hard bit...
...and I've left that for this machine
to try to solve.
It'll have to stand here...
...number crunching for a few hours
and then we"ll see if anything happens.
- Coffee?
- You bet.
I'll just take this call
and I'll be right with you.
Yes? Kurt speaking.
Are you outside now?
Good. Bye.
So, I'd just like to...
How are you?
Fine...
Well...
Id just like to ask you
a few questions...
...about SkandiGuard.
I love Mette.
And...
She was looking
for some peace of mind...
...after all the shit
she'd been through.
And in two years
I could give her that.
Now I've thrown her back
into insecurity.
It's so damn stupid.
You mustn't think
that she's in on this.
It's just me.
And I'm prepared
to take my punishment.
So you're the leak?
They contacted me.
Just when I'd met Mette...
Just as if they'd worked it all out...
At first I refused point blank.
Then...
Then the firm wasn't going
as well as I'd hoped.
And...
...they just kept on at me...
...and then here we are.
Good.
What do you know
about the next raid?
6718, we're in position.
Unit 1, in position.
Get ready to move in.
Well, well.
You'd better be right.
Jesus, yeah, it's right.
It's right.
Nyberg here.
Two figures
have just gotten off a bus.
Shall I send them away?
No, let them go.
The security van's on its way.
- Is it on its own?
- No, there's a bus there too.
The raid's under way.
- Go! Go!
- We're coming.
Everyone ready?
All units in position?
- What are you doing?
- Get out of here!
Go!
Hit the ground!
Get down!
Don't move!
Where the hell is he?
Kurt! The van's empty.
Shit!
Damn.
No, Molly...
Come here. There.
There, there.
You stay here.
What the hell's he playing at?
Out of the van!
Step on it!
Get out of the van!
That's it.
The radio.
Throw the radio into the van.
Be quick about it.
Mobiles.
Right.
Now get lost.
Get lost, I said!
Quickly!
Look...
...here we have the live one.
- Can we see its location?
- Yes, if the GPS is on.
It's brand-new.
There.
The coast road.
The harbour.
We have to leave.
- What have you got on?
- Hurry up.
Come on.
I'll take your bags.
- What are you doing?
- Come on. I said, come on.
Sven!
What are you doing?
We can talk later.
We'll have all the time
in the world then.
Mette?
Go away!
Sven!
Put down the gun!
Get out of here!
She's going to die.
I'm going to shoot now.
- No!
- I'll shoot!
No! No one shoots.
No one.
No one shoots.
Can't you just leave us be?
You know we can't just leave.
They have to take care of Mette.
I'll take care of Mette!
I'll take care of Mette!
Martinsson.
OK;, thanks.
They've just found
the security van.
Blown up and emptied.
He almost made me feel as if I was
the one who'd made the wrong choice.
Come on.
Have you heard any news of Belker?
Not a thing.
He probably made his way
to Germany or Poland by boat.
Interpol's onto it,
so we'll see what they can turn up.
God, they're so good together!
How long have you got her for?
Until Monday, as far as we know.
That's when Mette will be discharged.
Do you really believe
she didn't know anything?
I don't know.
She probably felt
that something wasn't right...
...but maybe she didn't do
anything about it...
...because the money was rolling in.
SO we can guess
that it's all over, then?
Yep...
...and so that's the end
of that dream.
Move abroad and quit working.
It's incredible
that he took such risks.
He must have realized
he'd be discovered.
He was in love, Kurt.
Not everyone's passionate
about their work.
