The Condemned Part 2
Are you still following her?
-I'm interested in her. -So, you follow her still.
-She's my daughter. -But she doesn't know, right?
-No. -And she has a father.
Yes.
If you're realistic, Sebastian...
You know how she will react, right?
-Maybe I need her. -Maybe.
That's something new.
That makes me vulnerable.
I used to feel nothing.
But now it's not just about you and your life.
This is someone who also has needs.
A young woman whose life you are likely to spoil.
A miracle you still have your license.
You must be handled too gently, too many do that.
But not you.
I see it like this:
You lost your daughter in a tsunami.
Before you go to make new plans, you must first accept it.
Say goodbye to her and forgive yourself that you weren't able to save her.
I'll try, Agnes.
It's just...
for the first time since then my life has any meaning at all.
Doesn't Vanja give meaning to your life.
-No. -She already has a father?
I also have a weekly group sessions.
I can ask if you can sit in few times.
-Are you serious? -It would do you good.
Me, in group therapy?
For various reasons, some people find it difficult to move forward.
-Did you know that already? -Known and boring.
Last week I said I'll finally clean out the garage...
to park the car again.
But doing the dishes and waste disposal, I think is an impossible thing.
The lack of energy is a symptom your depression.
That's not surprising.
How are the pills?
I don't like to swallow pills.
But if you are going there you have to take them anyway.
I can have a say about it.
It's like everything stops.
Consider yourself. Accept this is part of the depression.
Accept it.
Hello.
Thank you.
-My name is Sebastian. -I know.
-Agnes introduced you. I'm Anette. -Hello.
-You haven't said much. -No, I'm better at listening.
-You looked bored. -Touche.
I must work on that.
How long have you been here suffering?
Approximately half a year.
I lost my job, got divorced...
my son met the love of his life and went to Canada.
And why are you here? Agnes thought this could be something for me.
Why? What happened to you?
Although there is still nothing.
-In our relationship. -No?
But maybe it will come.
-Do you want to restyle me? -A little.
Do you mind?
-People don't come here to restyle anyone. -Fine.
I have less competition.
Sorry. If you think I'm going too far, I just leave you alone.
No, it's okay.
-And if this is the third victim? -We'll have it later on.
-Is this the third victim? -Let me consider. No, no comment.
What do you know? Katarina Granlund, 45 years.
She was recovering after surgery.
Her husband found her. He's sitting in the kitchen.
-She's lying in the bedroom. -What's his name?
-Richard Granlund. -Thank you.
What is your name?
Bergman.
As the director.
My name Wilen.
What do you do?
I'm trying to sleep.
No, what do you do?
I am now only concerned with falling asleep.
That is Skutte.
Good night, Skutte.
-The same MO? -Looks that way.
How long has she been dead?
Hard to say. The legs aren't stiff, but there is no autolysis.
They truly do get spots. So I guess between 5 and 10 hours ago.
Her husband went to work at about 8 o'clock this morning.
This is the third. Unfortunately...
-Sorry I'm late. Physiotherapy. -How's your shoulder?
Fine. Things are getting better. Is this what I think it is?
Victim number three. Tied up, raped and murdered.
-Same killer? -Absolutely.
Look for a link. Look for the victims having something in common.
He can have found it on Facebook or something like that.
Sure, but with luck there's a link.
We can use a fluke.
He needs to get going.
I know, but we found a third one tonight.
We work so late.
That's right.
No, I can sleep for a few hours on the desk.
Good night. I love you too.
How's Micke?
-You shouldn't ask. -I'm curious.
No, you're not.
-That's why we're here, huh? -No.
It's about time. I have an appointment, but hopefully you'll have time for me.
-But don't tell where you've been. -I hardly know you.
-Would you like more coffee? -No, I need to work.
-I can't just give you work. -Sure can. You said you need me.
-But I don't need you. -Cut it out.
Here we also have what we had in Västerköping.
-Torkel, we have... -Hello.
Nice to see you. How are you?
-Billy is there. We're waiting for you. -Is Ursula there already?
-She has the autopsy report. -Give me two minutes.
Autopsy Report. Torkel...
I got to go. You'll figure it out, huh?
-I met Vanja today. -Really? What did she say?
-What are you doing here? -The deal was no contact.
-I was looking for work. -Does it have to be investigation?
Hey, I want to work.
I need to bring more structure into my life.
-Exactly, like group therapy. -I told you it wasn't for me.
People who are broken down because their dogs died.
And because the house burned down with the dogs in it.
-I'm not going there tonight. -Really?
You don't want to try it again?
I slept last night with Anette.
That was wrong.
It was nice.
Soon she going to pose questions and expect more .
Sebastian...
The woman has struggled six months in therapy.
By your behavior she won't really feel any better.
I told you it was wrong. -It was not wrong.
You're sorry and now you just want to avoid her.
That's the plan. Usually it works.
Yes, it's been a while.
I've been working on a lecture and I want to tour the country with it.
Remember that?
I'll give you my number if something happens.
Is that so?
That is unfortunate for you. Good day.
... The murders are related to each other.
Torkel Höglund from the National Police was unwilling to comment.
But according to our sources in the police the MO was the same as in Husby...
and the murder was identical the other two.
It would be the third wife murder in three weeks.
Is it true? Is it a serial killer?
-Join me there. -We can't, Sebastian.
I don't need to be part of the team. Hire me as a consultant. Whatever you want.
Good, I was problematic last time.
But it's about a serial killer. It is negligent not to involve me.
Torkel, give me another chance. I need it.
-Good morning. -Tomorrow.
No, damn it.
Our suspicions are confirmed, there is a serial killer.
And Sebastian Bergman is back.
Hello, may I...
Good day.
Too bad the victims are women, otherwise you would be able to comfort the widows.
We need to talk about what happened in Västerköping.
Maria Lie in Enskede. Single.
A friend got concerned when she didn't answer and didn't show up at work.
Tied with nylon stockings on her belly in bed. Raped.
Both carotid arteries and her trachea cut with a sharp knife.
No sign of forced entry, but she tried to fight back.
There were no other traces except for some pubic hairs and semen.
Jeanette Jansson-Nyberg, in Nynäshamn.
Her husband and son came home from a soccer tournament and found her so.
Jeanette posted on her blog she would be alone all weekend.
And I quote: "It would be easy to do." End quote.
The murderer may have known he could attack.
-Did the other victim also posted on a blog? -No, but she was on Facebook.
She had "isolated" is checked off for relationships.
We found footprints on the garden stairs.
That didn't match her husband or son.
The semen is from the same person as Jansson-Nyberg.
And this is the last: Katarina Granlund.
Data on the recent murder isn't yet ready.
But the MO is the same. The same nightgown.
-Can it be Hinde? -No, he's still in custody.
-A copycat? -Possibly.
-Hinde? That sounds familiar. -Edward Hinde is a serial killer.
Sebastian became famous because of him and even wrote a book about him.
Two books actually.
I must see the crime scene. In any case, the most recent.
We have searched thoroughly. If you want to know something, just ask.
If it really is a copycat, then you've missed something.
-What then? -Let me see the crime scene.
Vanja, take him to Husby.
-Must I? -Yes.
-Are you a masochist? -What?
-Well? -No.
Why are you back?
Why do you insist on people you don't like?
-Billy allowed me. -He doesn't show how he feels.
