And he was one of them.

- Apparently.

- So, now we have an identification.

Run with it, Ann-Britt.

Check the prints

on the Bible, Martinson.

Contact lnterpol straight away.

Good...

- You mentioned traffic cops?

- l was in a hurry to get here.

And they got me with the speed gun.

This gung-ho girl, a real pain.

Was she a blonde?

- Have you found a place yet?

- No, l'll stay in a hotel.

- So what do you think?

- About the case?

Well, we're dealing with a psychopath

who has a thing for swans.

- An innocent woman sees...

- Kurt? lt's those army people again.

- Another break-in?

- l'm afraid so.

- How much did you use?

- What?

- How much?

- Two.

- Two hundred kilos?

- No, two kilos.

Christ...

And you managed

to lose tons of this stuff...

And no alarm went off?

Two tons... What the hell

do you need two tons of it for?

- Well?

- To blow up Ystad's harbour.

- The harbour?

- Yes, if there's a war.

So the enemy can't land there.

Hello...

Anna, is that you?

Hi, it's me. I just wondered if

you had come back yet.

It's me again. I'm getting worried.

Call me.

Anna, promise me you'll call

as soon as you hear this.

- Pregnant? Great, who's the guy?

- l don't know.

- l only found the test.

- She hasn't said a thing...

Maybe she's not going to keep it.

She hasn't talked about it.

She doesn't say anything these days.

She's been acting

bloody strange lately.

l don't know...

she's stranger than usual.

lt's like l don't know her anymore.

You saw the way she was at the beach.

She's so damn judgmental.

l was really hurt.

Who the hell could the father be?

- Who did she screw?

- Yeah, who did Anna screw?

Linda!

- Are you out riding your bike?

- l'm on my way home.

- l tried to get hold of you.

- l was at Myran's place.

Myran, that's a funny name.

- Weren't you having a meal?

- l'll do a runner.

- lt's all right, l'm a regular.

- l see...

How's your relationship

with the bottle?

We broke up.

- Have you stopped drinking?

- For the time being.

- Why?

- lsn't that a good thing?

- Are you ill?

- No, and l don't intend to be.

You had a check-up and now you've

stopped drinking. What's wrong?

- l'm a cold fish.

- Stop it...

- Have you been worried?

- Yes, is that so strange?

l guess not...

Well, yes. lt's unusual

that you're concerned about me.

Really? You've been

a police officer for 30 years now.

And your daughter never knew

if you'd come home at night.

Or if you would end up

with a great big hole in your head.

So don't act surprised

when your kid says she's worried.

- You're a strange man.

- ls that the way you saw things?

- That's how cops' kids think.

- You decided to become a cop.

- l don't have any kids.

- You might, one day...

- Then l'll quit.

- Good cops can't quit.

They allow themselves

to be ground down

without doing a thing to stop it.

- Why is that?

- The job absorbs you.

You don't even notice that you're

losing your wife and child.

Then all you have left is your badge.

You're nothing

without that damn badge.

- You cling to it.

- Why does that have to happen to me?

Because you're like me.

You and l are so bloody alike!

You're not

the only one who's worried.

But you learn to block it out.

lt's always there, though.

You worry about...

...losing the best thing

in your life.

- That you won't be around.

- You are...

You're in the same place

you always were.

lt took me years to realize

that l had to come here...

...if we were going

to have a relationship or not.

- So you came here.

- That's right, l'm here.

Good night, Dad.

- Who is she?

- Malin Krantz, the sexton says.

- What was her line of work?

- She was a local doctor.

Okay... Thank you.

Malin Krantz was a gynaecologist.

Her specialty was abortions.

This is a ritual killing.

- Who would do such a thing, and why?

- Fanatical anti-abortionists.

Check out the churches in

the neighbourhood, every last creed.

- Could that Bible be a clue?

- Sure. - What about the translation?

lt should be ready,

l'll have someone go get it.

Here it is.

Linda?

We have to finish

cordoning off the area.

""Only the Lord may give life

and only the Lord may take a life.""

""Anyone attempting

to take the Lord's place,

will be subjected

to the flaming wrath of God.""

""The flaming wrath of God""...

""And the children

to whom the Lord has not given life

will drown in the Flood.""

- ""J. Jones.""

- J. Jones? Let me have a look.

What if it's Jim Jones?

The leader of Jonestown.

mass suicide in Guyana in the 70s.

lt says ""The People's Temple""

in this Bible, that was his cult.

This just gets better and better...

Don't you think l've called my faith

into question as well?

l've been plagued by doubt

countless times,

but every time l reach the conclusion

that this is the only way.

This is only the beginning.

We have greater missions

to undertake.

We must be steadfast.

We must not falter.

You must never

display signs of weakness.

l know you share our convictions,

and this is the only way.

We must shoulder our responsibilities

towards our fellow man.

l would never lead you astray.

Dear Lord,

you have appointed us

to perform these deeds.

Give Anna the courage and

the strength to carry out her duties.

Allow us to purify your church.

Give us the strength to vanquish the

sinful ways present in Your house.

Give us the strength

to level Your house to the ground.

This Saturday, at Valleberga church,

Andr and Santiago will be wed.

This is the first same-sex marriage

performed by the Church of Sweden.

Hello, Stefan here.

Well, hello, Fanny.

How are you?

Are you coming to see me?

ls that what your mother says?

Could you put her on?

You can't tell her she can visit me

without talking to me first.

l don't have anywhere to stay.

Of course l want to see her,

but l'm staying at a bloody hotel...

Hello?

Why do those damn fags

have to be in our church?

- You never go to church.

- And l damn well never will.

Kurt, could you step into my office?

Hi...

- How's it going?

- l honestly don't know.

- Want some backup from the beat?

- They're working the gay wedding.

- l was thinking of Linda.

- Forget it.

She's smart, she knows the details,

and she's willing.

l'm aware

that she lacks experience...

- You heard me.

- And you heard me.

She's not only your daughter,

she's a police officer.

l refuse to involve her in a case

that gets more and more twisted.

- You're shutting her out.

- Now listen to me!

You've got to see this.

- You too, Lisa.

- What is it?

- You'd better see for yourself.

- Are Kurt and Lisa here?

- l'm busy.

What's up?

""The flaming wrath of God""...

Only the Lord can give life.

And only the Lord can take a life.

Anyone attempting

to take the Lord's place,

will be subjected

to the flaming wrath of God.

ls this on the lnternet?

Can anyone watch this?
