Acquitted (Frikjent)

Do you ever feel homesick? It's been 20 years. Things are different now.

Eva.

You have no right to be here in Lifjord.

Karine had no boundaries, and you knew it. Did you have a row?

I heard it in your voice. You were completely out of it.

63-year-old male with gunshot injury in his chest and arm.

Considerable haemorrhage. High pulse.

Shot at close range with a shotgun. Possible suicide attempt.

Copy that. We're approximately four minutes away.

Copy that. We leave in one minute. I will give continuous updates.

I'm sorry. Oh my God, I'm so sorry.

It's fine.

It's over now.

Come on.

Come on.

Go right in. The door's open.

Come on.

-Go in, have a look. -What's that?

-A doormat that I bought for us. -Where's my old one?

Mum, it was completely rotten. Come in and take a look.

Come on in.

I want to go home.

Mum, we've been through this. You're anxious living alone.

It's better that you live here with me.

Look how nice it is.

-Where's my couch? -In the garage.

-I want my couch. -Okay.

I can get your couch. No problem.

-And my telephone table. -Telephone table?

Yes, where else would I make phone calls?

Okay. I can get your telephone table. No problem.

-Erik... -Erik's in Chamonix. You know that.

-But he will be back. -Yes, of course.

He'll probably come back. But right now, it's just you and I.

Yes.

They're going to wake him today.

They're saying that we should talk to him.

I don't know what to say.

No...

-What is there to say? -It would be better if he just died.

Hey...

-Am I horrible for saying that? -No.

-Have you been able to reach Helene? -She's not taking my calls.

-She needs to know soon. -Should I send her a text-

-about her grandfather admitting to killing her aunt-

-before trying to blow his head off? Have a safe trip home.

No, relax. But...

-Do you want me to do it? -Would you?

Of course I would, Lars. I'll see you later.

I need to go to work. What a nightmare.

Take one step at a time. It'll be fine.

I'll see you when you get home. Bye.

Sahir?

The public prosecutor in the flesh.

-That's not every day I see. -It's a serious case.

-Do you want help with your suitcase? -I'm fine.

This way.

He just woke up. We haven't talked to him yet.

Eva, his wife, is still not in a mental state to be questioned.

-No? -As you can imagine, it was a shock.

Her husband admitted to murdering their daughter.

Yes, but shouldn't we...

Here's our regular. I'd be sick of him if he didn't bring me coffee.

-Here you go. -Thanks. And in my Forest mug.

You're the boyfriend? In the Karine case?

Amina Sahir, the public prosecutor.

-Will you be prosecutor in court? -Yes, if it goes to court.

If? He's confessed. What's...

Confessed is a bit of a stretch. Let's hear him out.

Okay. What will you do if he doesn't talk?

Then we have no confession.

-Well, we have... -I was there. Eva was there.

-Do you think we're lying? -That's not what I'm saying.

Then what are you saying?

Follow me. Your office is over here.

William.

William.

-Eva? -She's not here.

Water.

-Where am I? -In the hospital.

Why?

You tried to kill yourself.

William?

William?

-He's completely out of it. -He's suffered extensive injuries.

-He doesn't remember? -Come over here.

A couple of shotgun pellets pierced the hippocampus,-

-the part of the brain where short-term memories are stored.

If that's what's caused this injury, the memories are gone.

-Forever? -Yes.

We just have to wait and see. Plain and simple.

-Here you go. -Memory loss. Just what we needed.

Don't cross your bridges before you come to them. It'll be all right.

What if he's just faking it? It wouldn't surprise me.

We'll find out when we interrogate him.

-He will not get away with it. -No.

There's Rasmus.

-Where's Lars? -He's supposed to be here.

Hi. Can you all hear me?

If you could all come a little bit closer...

As many of you probably have heard,-

-PWG decided to restructure the company last week.

-A strategic reorganisation. -What does that entail, exactly?

Primarily that they are going to move the production to Shanghai.

Are they closing down the factory? Is that what you're saying?

The council has been very adamant...

Will we lose our jobs? That's what we want to know.

-We're still in dialogue with... -Come Monday, will we have a job?

-No, not on Monday. -What are we to do?

Lars was supposed to be here.

But on behalf of the board, I would like to thank you for your hard work.

We had planned to hand out wine bottles.

This is your bloody fault, Rasmus.

Don't let emotions get the better of you.

-You told us to sell out! -Yes!

Aksel Nilsen guaranteed local production for two years.

Why not admit it? Askel Nilsen fucked you over!

-They're all judases. -I'm not listening any more to this.

-Have you talked to him? -No, I don't want to see him.

It's insane. Do you really think he did it?

-It was the pictures. -What pictures?

Of Karine. With her clothes off.

William went ballistic.

He screamed obscenities about her. He called her a whore.

Even worse things. I've never seen him that angry.

Then he left to go look for her.

Oh my God. If I had stopped him, she would still be alive.

Mum, it's not your fault.

Do you remember? How furious he could be with her.

-Maybe, but... -She was growing up-

-and he probably thought he was losing her. He hated that.

And the state he was in when he came home...

He had this look.

Oh my God.

A gas station and an intersection. Wasn't that what you said?

In a year, there will be nothing left but a gas station-

-and an intersection. You were right. Congrats.

-I'm just as disappointed. -Yeah?

-Wasn't this what you wanted? -I've tried to help out, Rasmus.

Do you know what I think? I think you planned it this way.

-What are you saying? -People are pissed.

If you know what's good for you, go back to where you came from.

Hi.

We should do that interview soon.

-Get the formalities out of the way. -Of course.

How am I supposed to deal with this?

Oh my God, Finn. What am I to do?

I can't get enough air. I can't breathe.

It's okay, Eva. We don't have to do this right now.

-Hi, it's Finn. -It's Amina.

I have the results from the evidence technicians.

There's something we need to discuss.

I'm on my way.

A little further to the left. That's fine.

It's okay.

It looks lovely.

You should have shot him. William.

He's dangerous.

They would have done it in America.

They would have given him the electric chair or a lethal injection.

They do that. With poison. They would have done that in the U.S.

Hi.
