I was told to get you into the room,
until you passed out.
Here you go.
Enjoy yourselves.
They took your clothes off...
And then they shot the film.
Who are "they"?
They booked me through the agency.
I was to meet them outside the hotel
yesterday, but they didn't show up.
Now I have an address, where
I can pick up the money, when...
When what?
When it's over.
When will it be over?
Get up!
You can't imagine what they'll do.
- I don't care.
We're not going to the police.
What's the address?
- Please don't.
The address!
- Islands Brygge.
Why didn't you just pay them?
- I did.
They'll kill her. She did what you told
her.
What are you talking about?
- Just pay them.
Camilla!
Camilla!
Camilla, don't worry.
Drop it!
The money.
Where is it?
In the car.
The key is in the ignition.
Camilla?
Dig!
Let her go.
- Dig!
Don't.
Keep her out of this.
I'm the one you want.
Please don't...
Leave her alone!
No!
No!
POLICE:
POLICE:
Camilla...
- She was worried and called me.
She said you might be here.
These were the ones
who blackmailed me.
I can help you out of this mess.
But you have to let me handle it.
Yes...
Thanks a lot.
The two cops... One year ago
they worked in the evidence room.
They did it.
They gave the syringe to my Dad
and expected it to disappear.
And then it turned up in court.
If my Dad had told about them,
they would go to jail.
Go home and get some sleep, Jonas.
I'll take care of it tomorrow.
Martin told me everything.
They shot each other.
Yes.
No.
I did it.
I thought...
I shot both of them.
I did it.
What do we do now?
I'll go home and call Martin.
Then I give myself up.
Help me, for God's sake!
I found them, Martin.
In yourboathouse.
It was all done foryou, Jonas.
Otherwise you'd never
have moved on.
I just wanted to help you along.
Your phone's ringing.
Who was it?
- Just someone from the office.
When did you last get some sleep?
Ayear ago.
It's ringing again.
I found it. You'd packed it away
with the rest ofhis stuff.
You've got his phone,
and so what?
You said it yourself.
My Dad recorded
all important conversations.
Peterspeaking.
I'm on my way in.
- I found the syringe, Martin.
- What did you find?
The syringe that disappeared
from the evidence room.
That syringe, Martin.
It's a bad connection.
Stay where you are. I'm coming...
How did it end up at your office?
How the hell did you manage that?
I'll make sure the DAgets it back.
Then we'll see.
And afterwards I report it all
to the police.
Do you understand
what I'm saying, Martin?
I couldn't find a parking lot.
Are you ready?
Hi, Martin.
What do you want from me?
The truth.
He was going to take everything
from me. My family...
killed both of us, if I hadn't...
So it was you.
You were the driver of that car!
You forced him off the road.
And you left Louise in that hotel room.
You cleaned up the place.
You manipulated evidence.
You devised alibis. You lied
to Camilla and paid the money-
instead of going to the police.
Then came threats, assault and theft.
Until you finally shot two men, because
they would take everything from you.
The two of us are the same.
It was all a lie.
- But the truth foryou.
Yes...
I forced him off the road.
I had no choice.
What was the idea?
- You were too close to the truth.
I had to think of something.
If only you'd gone home
as I'd told you.
Then the people in the boat house
had left, yourmoney had been found.
And you would have been okay.
I would have been okay?
What do you want?
you'd have done it by now.
we'd have been at a police station.
So what do you want, Jonas?
You want to win
like you always did.
Your new office key.
You're insane.
- You work for yourself, not forme.
You'll be a partner.
You get the most prestigious defense
counsel position in Copenhagen.
Cases, connections, possibilities you
won't even get close to elsewhere.
Your five million will be
in your account tomorrow.
and then what?
I'll deny everything. The phone talk
is only circumstantial evidence-
of bribery
that you'll never win in court.
You have nothing.
You can take it or leave it.
Nothing will bring your fatherback.
Sit down.
Jorgen...
I saw you last, but Martin told me -
that it was all about
some family affairs.
You can say that.
On behalf of the board I'm pleased
to welcome you in our small family.
The contract is on the desk.
By the way, there's one more thing...
Martin,
I'd like to thank you for this...
What do you want from me?
The truth.
He was going to take everything
from me. My family...
killed both of us, if I hadn't...
So it was you.
You were the driverof that car!
You forced him off the road.
Yes...
I forced him off the road.
I had no choice.
You can leave yourkeys
and ID-card on your desk.
Jorgen...
- You may keep the phone.
I suggest you use it
to contact your lawyer.
