The Snowman
1
Mom, Mom! Uncle Jonas is here!
No, it's not Tuesday today.
But it is. He's here.
So, after the Germans surrendered,
when did our King return to
Norway from exile?
Um...
June 7th, 1945.
And on what date did the
Norwegian parliament
hold its first election
after the war?
- Um, July 6...
- Don't guess.
Eh...
August the...
On what date...
did the Norwegian parliament
hold its first election since the war?
Uh... August...
August 12th, 1945.
You have to help him more.
I'm going to tell your wife
that he's your son.
And then, she can tell
the rest of your family.
Then you'll never see me again.
Stop! Please!
Wait!
- No!
- Jonas!
No! Jonas!
No!
Jonas!
Mom!
Mom?
Mom, come on!
Mom, come on!
Open the door!
Mom, come on!
Open the door!
Mom!
Mom!
No!
Don't leave me!
No!
Sh*t.
Good morning.
F***!
Harry Hole?
Hello.
Dry rot throughout
the whole building.
And I'm afraid we found
some mold behind the walls.
Aspergillus.
Toxic and pathogenic.
Your landlord let me in
to spray the apartment.
I'm gonna have to
And this is above your bed.
Jesus Christ.
that you could stay?
The air in here is so bad
you're actually killing
your house plants.
I'm not disturbing you, am I?
You are familiar with
Emanuel Vigeland?
The brothers' work was most
likely influenced by their father...
who turned to drink...
had an illegitimate child
with younger woman...
What a tragedy.
Yeah, I didn't know that about him.
You can clearly see
in each artist's case...
love perverted and betrayed.
The good news is that with this
new version of the EVISYNC...
from version 3.6 to version 4.0...
allows you to manually push
the data back to the server...
using the cellular network.
The EVISYNC will automatically
upload all the new data...
here every 12 hours.
We've also done some work
on the fingerprint scanning software.
So, you will notice
a significantly faster
opening time after
scanning your fingerprint.
But please make sure
that your fingerprint scans
are done cleanly
and clearly from the start.
If you are experiencing
this is probably because
your fingerprints
were scanned incorrectly
from the start.
That must be nearly a whole
week of mail this time.
Did I miss anything
while I was away?
My uncle died.
Close, were you?
formally requested in writing.
Doesn't matter who you are.
Backdate it.
But I can't keep covering for you.
I'm dealing with it.
I need a case to work on.
I apologize for Oslo's
low murder rate.
Let's uh...
stick to the uncle story.
I didn't forget Oleg's birthday.
I got him concert tickets.
What did you do?
We took him for a pizza.
Oleg misses you.
He doesn't get along
very well with Mathias.
What about you?
He wants to meet his real father.
I don't think he's ready for that.
Thank you for
walking me back home.
See you at the game.
Tell Oleg...
Hi.
The snowman.
Snowman.
I'll take a picture.
He's beautiful, honey.
Mommy!
Hi.
Hello.
- May I borrow your scarf?
- You want my scarf?
I told you
I had to leave by 8:00.
And I told you that
I had to help one of my students.
No, thanks.
It's the smoking room.
Yeah, but it's the only place
I can concentrate, so.
I'm um, I'm Katrine Bratt.
Harry Hole.
I know who you are. We um...
We actually studied
your cases at the academy.
I didn't know
they date back that far.
Yeah, you're up there
with the legends, so.
I don't know who you are.
No, I'm new. I um...
I transferred from Bergen.
Actually, they put me in your office.
Okay. Bye.
Mom?
Mommy?
Mommy?
Okay, where can I drop you?
I'm on a call.
It's okay. I'm in no hurry.
So, why don't you have a car?
I don't have a license.
Missing persons.
Yeah, it's a woman.
The uh, call just came in.
So, this machine
is called an EVISYNC...
I will record you, so there's
a little camera on the other side.
- Well aware of it.
- Right.
Would you like to
walk me through what happened?
W-well, I saw Josephine
in the garden in her pajamas...
and uh, I thought, what is
she doing out in this cold?
So I came over to check.
And she said
she couldn't find her mother.
I tried calling the father, but
apparently, he's away on business.
How long has she been missing?
Two days.
She said she was going to visit her
friend and she never came back.
Why did you come to me?
I've been suspended.
'Cause you're a friend.
And you're a great detective.
But I don't want anyone
knowing about this just yet.
Not yet. I don't
want to go to the police.
Can you tell me...
Was your wife seeing anyone?
I uh, checked her credit card bills.
She'd been to see
a pregnancy doctor.
Well, uh, that's
great news, Frederik.
We haven't shared a bed
in three years.
This is Birte Becker.
Please leave a message.
This is Birte Becker.
Please leave a message.
This is Birte Becker.
Hello, Mr. Donkey.
Can I sit down?
It's a nice place
you've got here, Mr. Donkey.
Did you do this by yourself?
My mom helped me.
Was she in a good mood
when she got home?
Mm-hmm.
And what about your dad?
He was grumpy again
'cause mommy was late.
Did she call
to say she'd be late?
My dad doesn't want me
to have a phone.
She didn't phone the house?
Is he grumpy often?
Has your mother been upset lately?
When your father's been grumpy?
Have you ever seen her cry?
No.
But I saw Daddy cry.
When?
A few nights ago.
He saw me too.
What did he do?
Locked himself in the bathroom.
Where was Mommy
hen he was crying?
She'd gone out
Oh, sh*t.
Yes, is this Filip Becker?
Uh, yeah, I'm gonna
have to call you back.
He cried last week.
Why did you build
I didn't build the snowman.
This is Birte Becker.
Please leave a message.
You want a coffee or something?
No.
Look, you're not gonna
try and sleep with me, are you?
No.
Okay, good.
She'll show up.
She's having an affair.
She left her coat and
her handbag in the house.
And the front door was open.
Even if you're having an affair,
you do not leave
your child like that.
And Harry, she's not the only one.
Look, this is Hege Dahl.
Missing two weeks. Similar age.
Young children.
Unhappy marriage.
Talk to the husband.
411 to dispatch.
Dispatch, do you receive?
- Go ahead, 411.
- Now, I'm in Mount Ulriken.
It looks like a homicide.
Uh, adult female.
It's hard to see from here but,
uh, there's a lot of blood.
A group of school
children found her.
I've got a problem.
Rafto just showed up.
What the hell's he doing there?
He's been suspended.
Yeah, try telling him that.
We sent the kids
down with their teacher.
Make sure there's a
care officer to meet them.
And someone to deal
