- Thomas Skepphult for Philip Ceder.

One moment, please.

Thomas.

- Is Philip Ceder there?

- I'm back to settle old debts.

- Who am I speaking to?

- Don't you recognize my voice?

No.

Can I please speak to Philip Ceder?

- That may present a problem.

- Is this a bad joke? Who are you?

Thomas, Thomas, Thomas.

First Caesar Batanga

and then me and now Wilhelm.

That wasn't very bright, now was it?

Hello?

- Are you still there?

- Who is this?

I've followed you through the years.

You're getting better. Quite impressive.

It was a mistake to take her last name.

You found it sounded better, I'm sure.

But you must know

that you can't outrun yourself.

I know what kind of man you are.

Like I said,

it's time to settle old debts.

I'm standing outside

Nova Investment.

Sources tell us the police have arrested

Rahmberg's partner, Thomas Skepphult.

We have no confirmation if he is

a suspect in Rahmberg's murder...

This is absurd.

Don't you think you should

come stay with me for a while?

- Why?

- You can see for yourself.

You have contacts in the police

department. Tell them it's a mistake.

- I've spoken to them.

- And?

They said they'd never do all this if

they believed Thomas was innocent.

- And what did you say?

- If you had only listened to me.

They've found conclusive evidence.

- Anna?

- I want you to leave now.

I want you to know that I

will always be there for you and Ebba.

Always.

My client was redirected

when he tried to call me today.

He talked to a person

who my client believes killed Rahmberg.

- My client was also threatened.

- Threatened? How?

Essentially, this man said

that my client is next.

- Who were you redirected to?

- He claimed to be Morgan Nordenstrle.

- Why would someone want to claim that?

- I don't know.

Why can't it be Nordenstrle?

Because he's dead,

he killed himself.

I think you should check out this call.

Are we done?

We found a crowbar missing

from the tools in the garage.

It was just like the one

used in the murder.

Anything else?

The prosecutor wants him arrested

for the murder of Wilhelm Rahmberg.

Shouldn't you

check out the call first?

The fingerprints on the crowbar

belong to your client.

It could have been stolen

and planted on the scene.

My client is innocent. He will make

himself available to the police.

We're talking about his friend...

It's time for your arraignment.

And you have a call from your lawyer.

Right here.

- Hi, Philip.

- Your beautiful wife looks a bit tired.

Who was the man whose head

you blew away?

Do you approve of her smoking?

I remember you as a clean living sort.

- What do you want?

- Access codes for the offshore account.

- What offshore account?

- You know.

The one you have

at least 75 million in.

Charming girl, that Ebba. She's

advanced for her age, very talkative.

- She mentioned a magical heart.

- You're sick.

What's my guarantee

you won't hurt my family?

Guarantee? Since when did that word

hold any meaning for you?

The access codes, please.

- I don't have them on me.

- You have an hour.

- Then the guarantee runs out.

- What are you saying?

- One hour.

- What will happen then?

- There's no one there.

- I have to call...

- We're leaving.

- I have to call my wife.

- Take it easy.

- I have to call my wife!

What are you doing?

I have to call my wife.

Listen to me,

I really have to call my wife.

Can you just be quiet?

Wait here. Wait.

- How much to let me use the phone?

- Shut up. Okay?

What the hell are you doing?!

Damn!

ENTER PIN CODE:

Hey!

Do you have a phone I can borrow?

I need a phone.

Stop! Grab him!

Stop that man!

- Did you hear?

- What?

- Thomas Skepphult escaped.

- What the hell are you saying?

Dammit!

It's not my fault.

- Where's the damn kid?

- It's happening.

- What does that mean? Where is she?

- They'll be there soon.

He can't find the place. What is he

supposed to do, call the cops?

I promised you I'd take care of this.

I've done it before, right?

I'm sorry, Ahmed.

I'm sorry, I didn't mean it.

I was hasty.

I don't want you to think me unfair.

Come on, hit me and we're even.

- This isn't business.

- Hit me.

Not until you've paid me.

Pay you?

Just get the damn kid.

I can't sing anymore,

I'm getting hoarse.

- Hello.

- Hi. Is your husband here?

He's escaped and we were wondering

if we could come in?

- Has your husband contacted you?

- No.

- Why would he escape?

- I have no idea.

- He says he didn't kill Rahmberg.

- Of course he didn't.

Who do you think might help him?

- Is he going to flee the country?

- Flee?

How long did you say

he'd known Wilhelm?

I didn't. 15-16 years.

Do you know if they met before

or after Thomas's jail time?

I don't know.

Please call me

if he contacts you.

I checked out Nordenstrle.

Turns out his mother

identified the body.

- Why does Skepphult claim he's alive?

- He's lying. I know the type.

It's always about money.

We have to dig deeper into his affairs.

- Anna.

- Why aren't you answering?

- Meet me in the street with Ebba.

- What are you doing?

- Just do what I say!

- Why did you escape?

Just do what I tell you!

Meet me in the street!

I forgot my magic heart!

Anna!

- Yes?

- Take your car to the office. Now!

Okay.

Fabian von Klercking.

Where are you? What's going on?

I'm on the boat.

Listen, can you help me?

- Fabian?

- Yes, of course. With what?

Anna and Ebba are on their way,

can you take care of them?

A man called Preben Smed...

A Dane called Preben Smed...

He'll be there in three hours to take

care of my family until this is over.

Philip told me about that

wrong connection. Is it true?

Of course! Listen, the only important

thing is that you take care of them.

I promise. Hey...

- Do you want me to check it out for you?

- I'd appreciate it if you could.

- Take care.

- Fabian? Thanks.

No problem.

The family got away.

I just don't understand it, Thomas...

You look like hell.

You're gray.

- How are they?

- They're fine.

Thanks for helping out,

I really need it right now.

You know it's going to cost you.

One million per week.

- Do you have that kind of money?

- Yes. Anna will have to get it for you.

- Great.

- But she doesn't know where it is.

I wrote down the name

and address of the bank here.

What are you going to do?

I don't know. What can I do? I'll

go to the police, explain everything.

- Do you want me to take you?

- What do you mean?

- Want me to drive you?

- What does that mean?

- The police doesn't believe you?

- Not yet.

They're never going to believe you.

They won't look for Morgan, he's dead.

They think you've killed your partner.

Don't you understand?

You'll just sit there and wait

for the police to find something.

It'll cost you a million a week,

for how long? One week? Two, three?

- You hit a police officer.

- I get it. What can I do?

- Let me take care of it.

- What would you do?

- Do you have any leads?

- I don't even know what's happening.
