The Hunters (Jägarna)

Why did you kill her?

Why? Because she resisted.

She tried to tear herself free. She was fit. Had no choice.

But why did you take her away at all?

Was it intentional to kill Therese?

It was more than 15 years ago, I do not remember. But I do not think so.

No, I do not think you have forgotten this.

You were seen arguing earlier the same day.

"Quarrel"... We fussed a bit.

She was always on me since that thing with her dad.

Witnesses say she gave you an ear file.

Something you denied during the trial.

Do you have anything more to add about that today?

Wasn't it because you were offended by that ear file?

We know what happened when Therese's dad reprimanded you.

- I did not kill him. - No, he survived.

If we return to when you caught up with her -

And forced her out into the woods where we found the vest 100 m from the road.

Maybe a little longer.

What is going on there?

I'm trying to talk to her.

I wanted her to give a damn about me and what I was doing.

- But she screamed and hit. - So she hit you?

What are you doing then?

I'm chopping her.

- Because you feel offended? - For her to shut up.

- What are you chopping with? - A butcher knife.

Picture of fitting 23F is now displayed. Is this the knife you're talking about?

That's my knife, yes.

We'll be back to what you do to Therese after she dies -

But is this the knife you are seen cleaning

in your mother's kitchen that evening?

Yes.

But you also denied it during the trial.

Why have you changed?

- The truth must come out. - But why now?

Now I have clarity. I've seen the light.

Gumman?

Come on, old lady! Where did you go?

Not here...

But... there you were! Did you hide behind the tree?

Do you remember what this tree was called?

- Pine. - A pine! A really big pine.

Once upon a time, this big tree was smaller than you.

Can you imagine that?

And so me and my little brother took a lot of small talk-

And put them down in the ground like this. And so it has rained on them,,,

And so they grew and they grew and so it became this big.

All these pines are mine.

It's true. Shall we go home?

- Riding a horse. - Do you want to ride a horse?

- Then you have to count then. - One two Three!

Jump... Jump!

Jump!

Up there in the barn there were 24 window frames -

–Which the father put away after the renovation –68.

"Can be good to have at some point."

Always thought the old thief was stingy as hell-

But this time I have to give him the right. Because now they're sitting there.

Repainted and with new glass.

Cheers for that then, Erik. It has really become incredibly nice.

Yes, what should I do now?

Yes, I did not think so the first time you brought me here.

The roof was gone, it was only the walls and the chimney that stood here.

You, I was thinking about the forest. It would need to be thinned.

What are you saying? It is not difficult but it is good to be able to.

The idea is that this will be yours one day. What are you saying?

Avoid that fucking police car and get out into the fresh air.

That would be fun, but it's a little hard to squeeze in right now.

- Mom says the food is ready! - Then we come, old lady.

Talk to Ylva. She can give you a good price on the wood...

And then she puts her old men on thinning.

You're seen on the hunt.

More fun to do something together. So we can have a barbecue and have a pilsner.

Is the hunt canceled now? After all the fires and...

- Will never happen. - No...

But I have heard that not everyone comes to the premiere.

We have pretty good control of the fires right now.

Hello there! Long time no see.

Yes, it's good. It's hot as hell. Yes, even up here.

Be a little kind to him. I think he feels lonely.

- Maybe it's time for a new dog? - Yes maybe.

I think he needs some noise in the bin, me.

What the hell are you saying? Yes, it's absolutely fantastic.

I no longer work, but of course I can do it.

- When do you get up? - It takes a day to control this.

But then I get there.

I'm warning you, I'm getting older.

Sad, I do not. See you in a few days then.

We'll do that. It was fun to hear your voice again.

- Welcome up then. - Thanks.

Is it Grandma's little troll? Va?

- What was that about? –Joar Särn.

He has admitted.

- When did he do it? - Yesterday, I think.

But keep this to yourself. God, how well you've done.

- Did you work with that case? - Yes, I was the interrogator.

- You have really set the bar here. - How is he?

He's coming here so you'll probably meet him.

- Bye! - Hi then, old lady.

Karin? Would you consider taking Leah tomorrow?

No, I have a shift tomorrow, but you're free.

I promised to go to Therese's family and warn them.

But that's the job of the police, isn't it?

We got pretty close to each other during the trial -

So it feels right that it is I who gives them an end.

I've been living with this shit for 15 years.

I want to get this out of the world.

When I see you and Leah and you've built all this -

So it feels like you have found home.

I'll talk to the family, I'll not take up employment again.

- I take care of the little old woman. - Thank you, you are a gem.

Thanks for today.

Lundin! Take four men up to the intersection now!

It has broken through the fire street! So you have to work now!

Jallo! Do you stand for another half hour? Good!

What does this mean?

Särn will be transported here from the prison in Kumla.

Then he is taken to the area where he said Therese is lying.

Will we be able to bury her?

I do not think that extensive research will be required -

So you should probably be able to bury her in a couple of weeks.

Then there's one more thing I need to discuss with you.

This is going to come out.

You can probably count on the media to get in touch.

And unfortunately, just like last time, it will be written, speculated -

And my advice is the same: Do not talk to anyone.

Not until this is over.

Will we ever know what happened?

I really hope so, Lennart.

I just want to know what he did to my little girl.

There is no point in speculating about that now.

Hey... Huh?

Erik. I just want to say thank you. That you came out here, it was...

- It was damn nice of you. - Thank you.

You know, without you, they would never have solved this.

Well... I was just a small part.

Those clappers had been going on for several weeks, nothing happened.

Then you came and Gunilla told the truth.

It's not just me.

There were many pieces of the puzzle that would fall into place there.

My memory from when we were little was that my mother laughed all the time.

And now you have not seen her smile in 15 years like that.

Do you still think your brother is innocent?

- Hello! - Hello! Hey!

What a surprise.

100 hectares of fine forest land, which means that you are one of the better ones.

Yes. And what does it mean in one like this...

- Den? - Gosh...

This means that you are invited to the fine hunting team.

Congratulations then. What fun to see that you have found your place.

I never thought you would drop the badge.

No, but I thrive here and I have family here.

- Married? - No, it's my nephew's family.

- And you? - No no.

But why are you doing this?

I thought you had put this shit behind you.

Maybe I should become a justice.

My name is on a shortlist at the top of the ministry.

I think maybe Särn's recognition can give some good publicity.

Can not hurt to give this a nice ending.

- Cheers for that. - Bowl.

Come on. Here.

Here.

- Is this now? - Four days ago. Listen.

Sounds almost like the devil has become religious.

- Would not believe it. –Joar Särn.

I remember hating every second in that interrogation room.

Thanks to you I got him convicted.

Yes, but in any case, this feels like a relief.

- Were you always convinced? - About Särn? Absolutely.

- Weren't you there? - Yes, yes.

It just annoys me that I never got a recognition.

And that you never found the body.

Starting tomorrow, you will be able to release it.

It would not be so stupid to be allowed out tomorrow.

Get involved and end this.

You got his mother to point him out. He hates you.

We should not risk him changing again.

You get this with you instead. You can not get better.

- Hello. Peter Bäckström. –Nikki Thompson.

Hi. Sergio. We talked on the phone.

Bäckström?

You know, you're a lonely man.

I never think I've heard Erik praise a colleague before.

He saved my life once.

Small but nibbling good, stubborn as sin and never gives up.

Then I see the kinship. You shot dead a bully in the service a few years ago.

- Yes that is correct. - We go through tomorrow quickly.

You bring with you Peter and another colleague.

I wish I could follow but I will meet important people.

- The fine hunting team. - It sounds a bit silly.

But I'm new here. It's about politics, quite simply.

I get it.

So Peter will be operations manager. - Go ahead, Peter.

Särn has indicated that the body is located somewhere in this area.

It will be easiest if we drive here and then we take the rest on foot.

Shouldn't you go to bed?

It did not start with Särn being on Therese.

He was with his father long before. Lennart, cross-country skiing coach.
