Something happened in the forest
last summer.
A crime.
No!
I'll help you.
- Don't die.
- Stay with me.
Don't die.
- Don't die.
- Just stay with me.
Don't die.
He was so small and lovely...
William?
William?
Don't die!
Don't die!
ALL THAT MATTERS IS PAS I don't know what to do with her.
Is she a murderer?
Or is she a victim?
They lived in this cabin.
This is where I met them
the first time.
began long before.
She says she was the kind of girl
who lived in her own world.
In her own house.
She educated herself by reading
magazines she had found at the dump.
So in that sense
she felt ready to take on life.
she hadn't met those two brothers?
William and Ruud.
Two boys,
recently arrived from Sweden.
Hi.
Hi.
She says it was love at first sight.
With that love,
the two brothers lost each other.
Hello?
Do not go gentle
into that good night
Grave men, near death,
who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors
and be gay
Rage, rage
against the dying of the light
And you, my father,
there on the sad height
Curse, bless me now
with your fierce tears, I pray
Do not go gentle
into that good night
Rage, rage
against the dying of the light
What is this poem about? Yes?
I know he wrote it
when his father died.
It's about rebelling,
fighting against death.
"Don't go gentle
into that good night."
- To fight. Refuse to give in.
- Good.
Could it be about rebelling
in general?
Sure. Why do you say that?
I don't know.
It is a strong appeal to fight.
But he describes
the night as "good," -
- even though he encourages us
to "not go gently" into it.
Let's listen to it again.
Hi. Do you have a moment?
He says it can't wait.
- And it isn't Espen?
- No.
There you are.
I should have called.
But it was all kind of...
On impulse, so...
I just got off a 17-hour flight.
How about you?
Are you doing all right?
Yes.
- I'm going to the cabin...
- I have a new family.
- Kids?
- I'm a stepmother to two girls.
- Come with me.
- Why have you come here now?
I witnessed the tsunami.
And I have forgiven myself.
It's too late.
It's good to see you.
- Do you think I look bad?
- You look worn out.
I saw you on Facebook.
But wanted to see you face to face.
I have a dentist appointment.
I met William today.
He's back.
Where did you meet him?
- He showed up at school.
- What did he want?
Are you leaving us?
It's nice to hear your footsteps.
I almost didn't see you.
I bought a car.
- Still lots of salt?
- Yeah.
- And crazy amounts of ketchup?
- Yeah.
Welcome back.
Cheers.
Can I touch you?
And tomorrow,
I'll go into the forest -
- and we'll pretend to be children
pretending to be children.
And I'll be your mirror.
Because no one loves you like I do.
And no one kisses you like I do.
Returning to life.
Hello, can you hear me?
Hey!
She speaks of a boy -
- who looked at the others
without being allowed to take part.
And that even back then
they feared him.
What is our connection to evil?
The two dead men and near-dead woman
have not yet been identified.
The kayaker
who happened upon them -
- says he didn't see the woman,
or he would never have left her.
So you knew both of the deceased?
Would you like something to drink?
Yes.
Hi.
- I killed a goat.
- Whose is it?
I was up at the farm.
Did he give it to you?
I'll pay him the next time I see him.
- How is he now?
But I haven't met him.
Poor little thing.
- OK. Are you ready?
- Yes.
I just wanted to say -
- that I took one of your goats
this morning.
So I... wanted to pay for it.
I didn't recognize you.
- You aren't that pretty anymore.
- I know.
We just wanted to let you know
we're here, and pay you.
He received two blows with a heavy
object. And a bird has nibbled here.
I've seen him before,
but didn't recognize him.
It took him a while to die.
We found soil in his mouth.
Most likely placed there by someone.
But the cause of death
This one lost a lot of blood.
The knife cut his femoral artery.
- They don't look much like brothers.
- But they are brothers.
She says he noticed her
when she was 14.
And that what happened afterward
was her own fault.
Stop!
She says that when you are 14,
you long for what causes pain.
I want to show you something.
Get in.
It doesn't matter that it's raining.
The mother bird keeps the eggs dry.
Can I have one?
If I get a kiss.
Stop!
Take your pants off.
I can fix this place up for you.
Say it in Norwegian.
- You can only learn one language.
- So what?
We can run away, if you want.
Just me and you.
I love you.
I love you.
- Why are you speaking Swedish?
- I don't know.
Give me a kiss.
Take your pants off.
And that.
There's a dead one in there.
Ragnhild?
Ragnhild, come take a look at this.
It must be here somewhere.
What is this?
We found something.
Send backup and an ambulance.
My God!
- So this is where you were hiding?
Hi.
- Hi.
- Hi.
- Want me to open the curtains?
- Yes, please.
We found the child again, hidden
at a farm. Does that make any sense?
Did he kill it?
He? Who do you mean?
Southern Norway
has been through a warm spell...
Now it's good, this placement.
So when you have commercial breaks,
you can watch it all here.
That's good.
It looks like ultrasound.
My wife is pregnant.
It looks like this.
Refugees escaped from
the reception center every week.
As police,
there isn't much we can do.
Tell me if they make any trouble.
I will find jobs for them all.
He must have taken the baby
from outside the reception center.
How does it go again?
Hi!
So pretty.
Let's put on your little socks.
There. So you don't get cold.
Look how pretty you are now.
So pretty.
Come here.
What do you want?
So... We'll let you know.
Thank you.
He gave her the baby.
And then told me where to find it.
- Hi.
- What did they say?
I didn't report it.
She became pregnant with William.
Ruud! I have to borrow your car!
Ruud!
You have to let me borrow your car!
Ruud, Janne is in labor.
Lend me your car!
She needs to get to the hospital!
Ruud!
They drove around for a few days.
The two of them
and the newborn boy.
He checked into various motels.
She was ill,
and was feeling unwell.
On the fourth day,
she managed to escape from him.
Are you all right?
Are you all right?
Later they lost that child.
Janne?
- You realize we can't keep her?
- Yes.
- You do realize that?
- I do.
You're telling me you saw him
and some Chinese woman.
I read that in China they leave
the baby girls in the forest.
- Isn't that so?
- We aren't in China now.
Christ!
Look at him.
So the child was placed in the river
near the cabin?
Yes, she was.
And you didn't bring her here
