The Candidate Page #2

you had gone. 'Cause I didn't.

I don't want to know anything!

If you don't say anything,

it neverhappened.

What did you do last night?

I saw a movie.

What did you see?

- The new Spielberg.

About what?

- Shut up.

It's vital!

- It's vital you get me a Coke.

It's okay.

Now, get lost.

Hi.

Where have you been?

I slept at the summer house.

I saw a film with Michael last night.

You saw a film?

Camilla?

There's a package for you.

Jonas?

Hello. You can't park here.

What?

- It's a clearway. You can't park here.

And don't forget the seat belt.

Hello,

Henrik Linde, please.

Five million?

Is that a problem?

I have to ask you

what the money is for.

We've found a house in Amalfi,

and the seller is a bit eccentric, so...

That's why we do it like this.

You know that's all your assets?

- I know that, Henrik.

Hello?

What will happen now?

What now?

What now!?

Where is it?

What?

- The money. Where is it?

I just gave it...

I just gave it to your...

The guy with the dog.

Who?

Listen, I just paid him.

He took the money and went that way.

Stop!

- He went that way a minute ago!

Your girlfriend has the DVD now.

- No! I just paid him.

Come back tomorrow.

Same time, same amount.

But I can't...

Or the DVD will be sent to the police.

Listen... Hey!

It's a bad idea. Really...

You can't go in there!

I couldn't...

I'll call you back.

Right...

It's alright.

What's happened?

- I need to borrow some money.

Of course. How much?

- Five million.

It's a lot of money,

but I'll pay you back, of course.

What's going on?

- It's... Camilla...

We've found a house in Amalfi.

The seller wants the money now,

and he wants cash.

I'll tell you what I can do...

I'll make some phone calls, and you'll

have a 7-digit job within a week...

I can promise you that.

- No, that's irrelevant, thank you.

I... we need the money now.

I'll figure it out...

Sorry to disturb you.

Jonas?

Martin tells me you're feeling bad.

I'm fine.

- It's a hard period.

Remember

that my door is always open.

Cheerup, lad.

Camilla?

Camilla?

Camilla!

Jonas?

- They're after me.

The ones who killed Dad.

- What? Come inside.

They're trying to frame me

for a murder. They want money.

They shot a film,

but it's not me in the film...

Hi, Jonas.

- Hi, Eva.

Good to see you.

- Same to you.

Are you okay? And Camilla?

- We're fine.

Come and have some coffee.

- Talk to you later. I just have to...

What was your deal with Kiehlert?

- What do you mean?

My father lost the case,

and they killed him.

Why wasn't that enough?

Why do they want me now?

Some things you don't want to know.

- Martin, stop it.

Kiehlert was charged

with the murder of a competitor.

The murderweapon was a syringe,

which was found in Kiehlert's car.

But without the syringe,

the DAhad no case.

Three days before the conviction,

the syringe disappeared mysteriously.

Kiehlert was facing an acquittal.

But then the syringe came back,

just before the DA's plea.

We found something,

when we emptied your dad's office.

Transactions.

Normally your dad took notes of

everything. Taped all conversations.

But there was nothing

on the Kiehlert case.

I think your dad paid a policeman off

and got the syringe.

But then he had second thoughts

and handed it over to the DA.

Your father was a good man, Jonas.

But he was put under pressure.

How much? How much

money was there in that account?

Five million.

Jonas Bechmann

from Krogsboel and Partners.

I have an appointment

with my client at 10.

What's the name of your client?

- Claes Kiehlert.

What do you want from me

to stop this?

What is it that you want?

Who do you work for?

You tell me something now!

There was a deal to get me acquitted.

The deal was not honoured.

Then your father died.

What do you want to know?

- What can I do to stop this.

People are like animals.

When they are threatened,

they react in one out of two ways.

Eitherthey run fortheirlives,

or they stop and fight.

I bet you're a runner, Bechmann.

So run.

Yes?

Take it easy now, pal.

- No! There she is! There she is!

No!

- Don't move!

Let me out. I want to talk to a lawyer.

Let me out.

Just take it easy, okay?

My name is Jonas Bechmann.

I'm a lawyer myself.

You have not read my rights. Take

these off, and let me call a lawyer.

You'll get a lawyer, don't worry.

Until then, take it easy.

You called Camilla. Leave

a message, and I'll call you back.

All in all we have three scenarios:

One about wills-

one about joint ownership,

and one about family responsibilities

Good.

That was all fortoday.

Stay where you are!

- Camilla...

Camilla.

- No...

It's not me on that DVD.

And the girl isn't dead.

Who is she?

She's nobody.

- Why did she take you home then?

She didn't.

- Right... It was a hotel!

Did you kill her?

- She's not dead. I saw her yesterday.

Then go to the police.

- I can't. I have to find them.

Find who, Jonas?

- The ones who killed my dad.

Now they're after me.

They made the film to blackmail me.

They're watching us.

- Jonas.

Don't go home!

Go to the summer house.

I'll pick you up in a couple of days.

Look...

Camilla?

What was her name? The girl

you danced with. Louise's friend?

Who?

- The girl you danced with.

Relax!

The police are looking for you.

Michael, I have to talk to her.

- Well, I definitely don't!

Hey, you look terrible, man!

What's going on?

- Think! Did she mention her name?

Hername is important!

- I think her name was Sarah.

Did she say

where she works?

In a clothes store.

- Where?

Come...

- Are you crazy?

I don't want to see her again...

It's embarrassing.

Do you realize

what she wanted me to do?

Hi.

- Hi.

What's up?

- We're closed.

Okay...

Well, I just wanted a word with you.

Right... It's not very convenient.

- Nice evening the other day...

Well, it wasn't really nice.

What do you want?

We're looking for your friend.

I don't know where she is.

- Have you got hernumber?

No.

You don't have her number?

- You have to leave.

Okay.

Bye.

- Bye.

She's lying.

- Who's the liar here?

Come on.

Let's go home.

- Stop that!

No, I don't want to.

Wouldn't you be sorry, if you

weren't invited to his birthday?

Where is she?

- I don't know.

Mummy?

- It's alright, we're only talking.

Tell me where she is.

- Listen, I don't know her.

She came up to me in the bar

and asked for a favour...

What does she do?

She's an escort girl.

- Where?

Elite Escort.

Mummy?

Come on, Freya. Let's go.

Go, Freya.

Good evening, and welcome.

- Thank you.

Thanks.

Please...

Stay put!

My boyfriend is in the cloakroom.

- No, he isn't.

You came to meet a client,

and that client is me.

What do you want?

- I want to know what's going on.

Welcome. Would you like

to start with champagne?

Yes, please.

Excuse me. The ladies' room?

- This way, please.

Tell me what happened!

- I will!

Let's go and sit down.

You spiked my drink, didn't you?

Didn't you!?

Yes, with a rape drug.
