I don't know. You do?

Your judgment seems to

leave something to be desired.

- Take a little leave.

- Patrik can take it from here.

There's a visitor for you.

He says he has an appointment.

My wife recognized him. I was

especially glad I had my golf clubs back.

My whole bag was lost once.

She pointed at him and said:

"Isn't that the minister?"

- There he goes.

- 19:
17 pm, June 27.

- That could be anybody.

- She recognized the minister.

That still proves nothing.

- I'm sorry.

- Do I get paid for this?

It's a tip.

Not really how it works.

I have to go to work again.

Wait, put another stop.

Can I just take a closer look?

We're a private company...

So we can't reveal receipts

or reservations.

I know Christer Lundgren flew

with you that day. The Minister.

Then he has a duty to keep secret.

I don't have to tell you.

He's involved

in a police investigation.

This is very important information.

I request you to give it.

Your name won't be mentioned.

I'm trying to clear his name.

Right.

I'm sorry.

- Can I speak to the manager?

- Who's on vacation.

- Call him.

- He isn't reachable.

Why not?

Because he's on vacation.

I'm sorry, I can't help you.

So even though

you weren't really a suspect...

Yet you told the police

public money goes to strip clubs.

- What else could I say?

- Well.

But do you realize what this means?

What we should do now?

You are strong.

You can handle it. I'm sure.

What was he doing that Friday

night at the airport?

I have the

receipt from Studio Sex.

- Why is he using a private jet?

- A change of booking?

That someone else can

surely arrange for him.

I just know

that there's more to it.

There will be a

real explanation.

- Take what. From Belgium.

- No.

I think we should be cautious.

- Where we write about?

- That's my problem, not yours.

Sorry.

I thought you'd be happy.

At least that

was the intention.

- How are you?

- I'm a little stressed.

- And the children?

- With my mother.

Relax. They're happy there.

Who's staying here?

A friend of that girl.

A colleague of hers.

She was thrown out on the street.

- What girl?

- I was murdered in the park.

The stripper?

And her friend's staying here?

- A few days, until she finds something.

- Damn it, Annika.

- A porn star in our nursery?

- She works behind the bar.

True. And her friend was just killed.

You should have asked me.

- And where is she now?

- At work, I suppose.

But tonight

she sleeps here again?

I told you just had to ask.

Sorry.

- Is this private therapy or something?

- What?

Annika, I also read the newspapers.

I know she was mistreated.

You don't answer the phone.

And when I get home I find

your head's somewhere else.

Why do you always

want to save the world?

What! Because I care.

Because I don't want her killer

to go free. Is that wrong?

Well?

- No, there isn't anything wrong.

- Beautiful.

Come.

- Do you want a ride home?

- No, I'm staying around here.

Hi, girls.

About that Annika?

- How do you know her?

- From fitness training. Gym. Sorry.

Don't worry.

Come along.

I've something for you.

- I want to give you this.

- No.

I bought it for Josefin.

Now I want to give it to you.

I can't accept it.

I'm sorry.

I need you, Patricia.

I give so much to you.

I need you.

Stop. Hold on.

Stop. Don't.

The press will not attend funerals

out of respect for the family.

Evening Press didn't

want to be our guest,

but said they have

done nothing wrong.

What are we going to do today?

Or rather:
What we won't do?

Wait, I need...

- Annika, to the government building.

- I'm coming.

I'm on my way.

Patricia, with Annika.

I hope everything's okay with you.

Call me just when you hear this.

Here you go.

Christer Lundgren has resigned,

effective immediately.

It was his own decision,

and I have to respect that.

I remind you Christer Lundgren

isn't suspected of any crime.

He shouldn't

have gone to that nightclub...

But we all make mistakes.

We're all human.

Are there often

invited foreign guests?

Please, let's get

this affair behind us...

And focus

on the upcoming elections.

It's too bad if someone is used as

a scapegoat. He has a family.

Especially when it could be

prevented by his own initiative.

If it were up to me...

No one needs to find out.

That was all.

Copies sometimes simply get lost.

That's nobody's fault.

Damn.

In Afghanistan

the kidnapped Swedish

colonel was

unexpectedly released.

The press conference

was held at a hotel in Amman.

The villains are all, huh?

Thanks to our consistent preparation

and courage of the Colonel...

It's a victory for the government

and for our democratic values.

Al Qaeda issued a statement

about their American prisoners.

Millions added

to defence budget.

Christian Lundgren wasn't

at Studio Sex but in Oslo.

He flew there at 20:00 and went

back at half past four.

He can't have killed Josefin

or even saw her.

Compare the signatures to confirm.

That signature was forged.

I suspected he'd rather

not say where he was.

- Who signed it?

- A government official.

I wanted to know

what he did in Oslo,

but the track ends

at the airport.

It's like he imploded.

Then I remembered...

That several diplomats with ties

to Afghanistan were in Oslo also.

- And?

- And suddenly the Colonel is released.

What seemed

impossible up till now.

And then suddenly a

million increase in

the defence budget.

Isn't that strange?

Conveniently for the government,

right before the election.

So did Lundgren pay the Taliban

with weapons on behalf

of the Government?

He chartered a secret aircraft

in middle of the night.

- That wasn't a birthday party.

- Why Christer Lundgren?

An unknown,

but a good negotiator.

Weapons paid for with our tax

dollars, shipped to the Taliban.

This may be

an international scandal.

Exciting.

But we can't publish it.

- It's all speculation.

- Give me 24 hours.

You've done a lot work on it, but

I won't put my career at stake.

- Forget it.

- I can write what I want.

But I decide what we publish,

and now we have other issues.

- Annika Bengtzon, Evening Press.

- No comment.

I know you don't want to talk, but I

need Lundgren's comments.

I know he wasn't in Studio Sex

on the 27th, but in Oslo.

- Do you know what he was doing?

- No.

I'll tell you what I suspected.

It's over. Don't cry now.

What will happen to the children?

What have you done?

- Are you going to jail?

- Of course not.

No, I knew nothing

about the flight.

Even though I take your

theories seriously... no.

It doesn't surprise me really.

I never saw him as a murderer.

- He lied during police interrogations.

- Possibly.

But he's no longer of interest.

Arms trade isn't my area.

Not yet.

In addition, we already

know who killed Josefin.

Joachim abused and raped her

throughout their long relationship.

And then he killed her.

I knew it.

I've known all along.

But he has an

airtight alibi, as I said.
