The Art of Telling Lies (2026) Movie Script
I have to go. I'm going to be late.
Have a good day.
Thanks. You too.
Tell the mayor, I'm on my
way to the press conference.
Any details he wants to add
Just let me know, before I go live.
How is it possible?
I get it.
I'll check when I get there. I'm on my way.
I can be your home.
So you buying me now?
No passion.
Buying me with passion.
Yes, I am.
You know me.
I mean, it's fun.
It's fun and all that, but shit.
First time going to Shazfert Palace.
- Yeah.
- This castle is well known in the area.
It belongs to a wealthy CEO. Right.
He owns a big media company.
Usually there's no one there
until there are big
parties with a lot of people.
Yesterday when I passed
by, I saw someone there.
Neighbors used to complain about the noise,
but they, they don't even care anymore.
I always wanna know what
happens in there. No chance.
I'll be invited.
Let me get your luggage,
My number's on the back.
Call me if you need a ride.
- Thank you.
- Bye.
Can I help you?
Excuse me. Do do you speak English?
- I said, can I help you?
- Yeah. I'm here to see Thomas.
I was supposed to meet
him later today. I'm a bit early.
My name's Esther.
- Right?
- Well, I tried calling,
but there's no service around here.
No, he's still hunting.
So there's a bar around.
If you wanna wait for
him, he'll be back tonight.
Or I could just wait inside.
Yeah, whatever. Go inside.
The master bedroom is upstairs
first on the right.
Excuse me.
What is your name again? Walter.
Look, I get it.
I guess you don't know
who I am and why I'm here,
but ever since you picked
me up from the airport,
you fucking ignored me.
And I don't appreciate that.
And by the way, I thought
I was invited to a castle.
This is not a fucking
castle. It looks like a sex pit.
Well, it is a castle. It's your castle.
It's your castle for this
weekend. Any other questions?
Yes. When do I start? And
where the hell do I keep my bag?
Well, I'll come and get you
and tell you when it's your turn.
And concerning your bag.
You just pass that door and walk upstairs.
And that's where you
put your little tiny bag.
Fuck.
Hi. You are - Sorry. Who are you?
Dr. Isaac Iminu.
Okay. And you're here for what? Exactly.
Lemme guess You are
one of the organizers, right?
Organizers. This is Thomas's place.
I, I don't know what you're talking about.
I, I think you're confused.
- I'm confused.
- Yes, you are. Look, I'm just here to,
I hope I didn't make you guys wait.
And.
Who are you?
I'm Malin. The reporter.
The reporter.
- Are you being interviewed?
- Seriously. You too?
After a minute to two, you'll
forget the camera is there.
Right!
Well, I'm not being interviewed, so please,
when Thomas gets here, just tell him I'm
waiting for him in my room.
Waiting. We stay here.
I just talked to Thomas
and he's on his way back
and he wants you to stay
here with all the others.
- Let me talk to him.
- Wait, wait. Who is Thomas?
Well just be patient. Okay.
- Why are you here?
- Well, I'm here
to promote my new book.
That sounds interesting. What is it about?
Oh, it's about the importance of patient
freedom, of choice.
See, this spiritual
process is what allows us
to expand our landscape as well
as our moral views of the world today.
But I'm absolutely convinced
that in a moment of need,
a doctor's assistant,
death should be a choice and not a law.
Oh, I mean, what do you do?
I work in politics.
Seriously.
So what do you do?
I work at a local TV
channel in Stockholm.
I know it's not the most high profile,
but No, not very high profile. N.
But I'm really happy for what I can get.
Good. Yeah.
Why did I go and look for Walter?
I mean, he doesn't know what we are here.
Fuck me. Here comes another one.
Yo, guys, how are we doing?
1:00 PM like you asked. No?
Man, there's, there's no WiFi in my room,
so like, if you want me
to post content, you're
gonna have to sort that out.
Great. And he's Irish.
I'm sorry. What? You
got a problem with that?
Oh, not at all. For a matter
of fact, welcome to the party.
I love your style.
- Thank you. What's your name?
- Noah
I'm Malin.
So you're, you're part of the crew.
No. Are you speaking tonight, Walter?
What the fuck is he talking?
Well, what, what do you mean?
I'm, I'm back here to greet my German fans.
Hang on a minute.
Well, are you all done?
Let's meet in the dining room
and I'll answer all your questions.
This is ridiculous.
Wow. Your eyes they are captivating.
Yeah. Guess what they're saying?
Yeah, don't mind her.
Well, it's just a bit unclear
on why we are here.
Let's go.
You too, Esther.
I love the energy in this room.
I guess now's not the
time to ask for a group selfie.
Are you like a film actress or something?
No. What makes you think that?
Just the way that you present yourself.
I take that as a compliment.
So you some kind of a
Instagram celebrity, huh?
Well, the term is influencer,
but yeah, 20 million
people would like to take so.
So tell me something. What kind
of a grown ass man like you
makes kids videos for a living?
A grown ass man that makes
a lot more money than you.
You are funny.
The real reason why
you've been invited here is
that each of you has been
caught in the middle of a scandal.
What are you talking about? Scandal?
How exciting - This guy. Serious.
- What the fuck?
- I'm outta here.
Oh, this just gets better.
Sit down.
I'm gonna go check on my doctor colleagues.
Open the fucking door.
It would be in your
best interest to see this.
Dr. Isaac Amanu, based in London, known
for his controversial preaching
of defending patients'
rights to end their life.
Although this practice
is still illegal in England,
he went on to perform it
knowing full well he would risk 14
years in prison per case.
The following recording if released,
could jeopardize his whole practice.
It's a practice I strongly believe in,
but I'm not sure I'm the
right person at this time for you
to speak to.
As you know, there's a lot of
controversy about my belief on
this subject matter, and
I prefer treating patients.
I followed from the very
beginning in this process.
But my colleagues told
me about your situation,
and I'm deeply sorry.
My wife thinks going
forward with the procedure,
is the the right thing to do here?
- That's Thomas' voice.
- Do you agree?
I can't even think about it right now.
I only called you doctor
because I wanted to
discuss the alternatives here.
I'm sure if your doctor
referred it to me, it's
because it is the right thing to do.
Where the fuck did you get this from?
How many patients have you
treated in this way so far?
So far eight.
Where the fuck did you get this from man?
This is a conversation
between a patient and a doctor.
This is illegal.
Malin Bergman,
Swedish journalist whose
daughter died in a terrible
accident, is well known
for her controversial story.
She's been accused of letting
her child drown while watching.
After the investigation,
she was found not guilty of all charges.
Evidence has now resurfaced
that if released could prove otherwise.
You should learn how to swim. Do you
hear what I'm saying. You swim ten laps.
Look at you.
You are so weak.
Than it's time to learn.
I don't know how to swim.
I can't swim.
Do you want to die?
Do you?
Swim! Swim! Swim!
Noah Byrne influencer,
based in Dublin, was invited
to a prestigious party
throughout the night.
He got involved in sexual
activities with underage girls.
The following video is proof
of this atrocity if released,
he will face social media alienation
and most properly serve time.
Oh fuck. Sorry. Sorry, man.
Come on. Come on. She's, she's fair game.
Trust me. Come on. She's all yours.
Get in man.
You won't regret it. Come on.
How old is she?
You'll find out.
Esther Sitali secretary
for the mayor of Rome,
married to a motivational coach
and secretly having an affair
with an also married CEO Thomas Lungqvist.
The following is a preview
of a private sex tape
that if leaked would
immediately end both their
marriage and career.
Stop that video now.
Are you gonna choke me?
I'm so fucking wet right
now. That's a private video.
That's personal.
Are you gonna put your hard cock inside me?
Turn it off.
And finally, Walter Mueller, pedophile
and business partner of Thomas Lungqvist
Walter is not only known
for his great business skills,
but also a private
organizer of luxurious parties
where his main focus is taking
advantage of underage girls.
Thank you for using AI text
to speech AI audio software.
You're fucking kidding me.
- What the fuck?
- I'm finished.
- You killed your daughter?
- HEY!
You touched underage girl.
Hey, fuck you man. I didn't
touch nobody. Fuck you.
You didn't touch? No. Shut
the fuck up. She's gonna fuck.
Fuck sake.
He's fucking dead.
- Fuck. What the fuck happened?
- Let's all calm down.
For fuck sake. We must do something.
I go to the neighbors.
You can't. It's a crime scene.
- What the fuck?
- Do you wanna go to jail?
- We can't call the police.
- No, you can't do that.
- We need to get outta here.
- We need to get out of there.
I need to get outta here.
What the fuck just happened?
We've just been blackmailed.
But then we need to call the police. Man.
- There's no service.
- - I mean, you told us you called.
Or spoke to Thomas earlier.
Fuck that? I'll just go into the
street and not find somebody.
- We can't do that.
- I've done nothing wrong.
He's right. We can't do that.
Whoever stole the videos must have copies.
We must do something.
Look at me. I need you to
come clean with me right now.
You've hanged out with Thomas
and this motherfucker right here.
- What's the deal?
- No,
I have met Walter once.
I've never met Thomas in my life.
You are the one that seems to know Thomas.
Oh, you really want to go down that road?
This motherfucker just
blew his fucking brains out.
And I just want to get
to the fucking bottom of it.
And you are telling me, you don't know?
Hey, do not touch that body.
Yeah, you, you know Thomas,
he's clearly hiding something from you.
"I don't care what you
think unless it is about me."
"I've never seen a greater
monster or miracle than myself."
"In the group, shoot the one who knew"
"I am not a victim of
emotional conflicts. I am human."
Hey, you got one of
those two. What's it say?
My passport gone missing. I think.
You don't think Walter would've taken it?
I dunno.
I'll go check. Are you coming?
Just gimme a five minute.
Hey man. Look,
I think that Walter might
have stolen my passport.
Well, we're in Walter's room.
You sure you didn't misplace it?
Yeah. No, man. It was, it was
on my desk and now it's not.
So someone must have
taken it. Have you got yours?
I found the landline. It's not working.
Now guys, I think maybe it's best if we
stick together from now on.
Well think. How well do you know Thomas?
I mean, it's his castle.
And how would they get hold
of your videos if he's not involved?
Well, how would he have your videos?
But it is his castle, right?
So he must have something to do with it.
Or he was hacked.
Why would he jeopardize
his career like that?
See, I don't know about
all that hacking stuff.
All I know Mr. Thomas illegally recorded my
conversation. I need to find him.
Oh yeah. And do what exactly?
Torture him till he tells
you what you want to hear.
Maybe.
Oh, maybe. Or maybe just
kill him just in case it was him.
Can you just stop it? Seriously, I just go
to the closest neighbor and
ask them to call the police.
We have done nothing wrong here.
Hello, miss reporter
in case you didn't
know, I'm not going to jail
and I don't think you
want to join me there.
What if he has more videos?
It can't be fucking Thomas. All right?
He doesn't have any videos.
Can you stop giving him
the benefit of the doubt?
- Can you just stop and mind your business?
- Excuse me.
If someone is playing
with my life, I have the right
to ask any question I want.
- Stop that.
- Are you fucking
videoing us?
Oh, it's such you're fucking crazy for you.
Fuck this. I'm done
with your bullshit guys.
Esther, what are you doing?
We should stick together.
Are you all right? You know you should.
You should drink a little water,
It will release the morning sickness.
Well, as a, as a mother,
you have a sixth sense about these things.
How do the two of you meet?
At a conference in Italy.
Is he the father?
What is that?
- - I don't know.
Where's Noah?
- Is he someone else's here?
- It's coming from upstairs.
Isaac. Go check.
Are you kidding me?
You go check.
Fuck that.
There's a letter.
Hi.
My name is Isaac.
I'm a doctor.
Can you hear me?
She is paralyzed.
What does this say?
By 6:00 PM you'll have
to completed your tasks.
Otherwise, your videos will be leaked
to all media platforms worldwide.
Oh my God,
thank you all for coming.
Do you know who invited us?
Do you know why we're here?
She clearly can't talk.
Where's the nurse?
I mean, someone must look after her.
Where you going?
Ain't you coming? Come on.
She can't hear us right
now. I mean, far away.
We can't trust her. We don't
know who she's, we need
to figure out what they want us to do.
I call bullshit.
It's gonna be a whole lot of
people going down if that video
and information gets out.
Question is, are you willing
to bet your life on that?
What did your letter say?
- How do you know I got one?
- I think everybody got one.
Where's Esther? What do your say?
Yeah, what did your
say - In the group shoot?
In the group shoot the one who knew.
What?
Guys, I thought the whole point of this was
that we all stick together from now on.
For fuck's sake. Is it the
girl? Is the girl doing this?
- Can't fake paralysis.
- How would you know?
You checked her for one second,
Guys!
What did you do in your room,
Guys?
What?
The tape?
It's different right? Listen,
Your part is missing.
I suggest you start to
explain what the fuck you've just done.
Thomas Lungqvist.
Has manipulated me for the past year
at events and parties.
He has often drugged me without my consent.
All of this, he has done
for his sexual pleasures.
I know I'm not the only one.
- Is that true?
- No.
It's not fucking true
instructions that I had to choose
between Thomas or you.
- We can't trust her.
- No shit.
Look how quickly she turns
against the guy that she loves.
- What?
- Let me get this straight.
If it's true that you
followed your instructions,
then whoever's in control
of the recording must have known in order
to take your part out and play it again.
Now, Esther, either you're lying to us or.
Oh, come on man. Look at
her. She knows something.
That's fucking clear, isn't it?
You hypocrites.
You know what guys? I've done my shit.
I can go, yeah,
- I can go.
- Oh fuck no you can't.
Noah, - Noah, Noah,
Stupid motherfucker.
Delete my video.
It's not me. Oh, no worries. It's not me.
Put the fucking gun down.
I swear. Delete the video.
I don't have the fucking video.
A car.
What is he doing?
Don't open the door.
If she's got nothing to hide,
she won't make show on her face.
- Can I help?
- Sorry to bother you.
I wasn't sure if you, we still there.
You lost your earring in my cab.
You really didn't need
to come the way back.
No worries. I just got a call that I have
to pick up another
client that is hours away.
So I was passing in
front of the castle anyway.
- Well, thanks.
- How's the party?
It's crazy.
You knew him - We all came
here with Walter except you.
She knows him.
See,
am I the only one with some
kind of logic around here?
If one of us leaves right
now, what guarantees us
that we would've done exactly
what they wanted us to do?
If we don't, it gets leaked.
If we run, it gets leaked.
How much time do we have?
We don't have that much time left.
And you pretty boy, come
on, put the gun down.
You look like an idiot.
Why did you just me, -
Noah, Noah, Noah, look at me.
Give me the gun, Isaac. Leave him alone.
This man here is pointing a gun at me,
and I'm the irrational one here.
I tell you what.
This how this is gonna go down
from now on, I'm running the show
until we figure out who's
doing what and why.
I put my trust in myself.
- Okay. Guys!
- By the way, my man, with your prints
and that gun, you have
just gone from accessory
to murder to second degree.
I don't know about you guys,
but I'm about to rip this castle bit
by bit because guess what?
I am not getting blackmailed
or extorted by anyone.
Good luck.
Like Isaac, I'm not going to prison.
Just put that gun down.
I know you're scared. Okay?
But you know, I don't have the videos.
Just put that come down.
Okay? Now let's think.
Okay, let's think together.
What did you letter say?
My sin is ever before me.
I dunno what that means.
It's from the bible,
it's a whole passage
about forgiveness.
Just think, put that gun down, alright?
Just think. Is there
anyone you need to forgive?
I think we should establish some sort
of communication so we can help each other.
So if you could blink one for yes
twice for no.
Do you understand me?
What is it? Is it for me?
I was looking for you.
Can I sit down?
Oh, that's nice.
Are you okay?
Yeah I'm alright?
Would you have shot him?
I don't believe we're born bad.
It's his life that changes us.
For years, people accuse
me of being unstable today.
I know who I am.
Do you know who you are?
She is able to respond by blinking.
Do you know this girl?
Her name's Elsa. She's Thomas's daughter.
- How old is she?
- I don't know.
About 17.
She's about the same
age as my daughter Sophia.
Look at her. Isaac, we
need to get her out of here.
We all need to get outta here.
What did you let her say?
I come here to this
fucking castle in the middle
of fucking nowhere and there's this huge
party going on, right?
But there's no one there to greet me.
Hmm?
I go in and no one seems
to know why I'm there
or who I am.
I see what fucking Walter is doing
and I freak out and I left.
What are you saying?
The girl upstairs in a wheelchair.
I'm pretty sure that that's
the fucking girl. Right?
I get the feeling Malin
and Noah have met before.
Why do you keep avoiding the question?
How does a high profile
individuals, such as you
get yourself mixed up
with this kind of guys.
Talking about it won't help us right now,
but you know what will, if you tell me
what your fucking
letter says,
look, I know how that fucking video looks,
but I didn't do nothing.
You have to believe
me. I didn't do anything.
I just went into that fucking room
so I could see what was going on.
And as soon as I knew
she was fucking underage,
I fucking left.
I fucking left.
Do you know who the fuck I am?
Well, you think it's
easy for me to take a live
of a young girl just because
I think it's the right medical
decision to do.
Do you know what it's like to
watch someone take their last breath.
The feeling in your heart that
it could be someone that you love?
Don't you fucking touch her?
I know that I'm selfish.
I know that all I give
a fuck about is money.
But I'm not the same as
that fucking man. I am not.
Into fucking underage fucking girls.
And I know, I fucking know
I should have fucking stayed.
Now you know who you are.
- Where are you going?
- I can't sit here all day.
But you know what you have to do.
Hello?
I'm sorry about before I,
I feel like we just came barging in.
You must be pretty startled.
Everybody's a little confused
at the moment, you know?
So I bet you're, I bet you're confused.
Look, I'm, I'm just gonna,
can I, can I join you?
Can I just pull that chair up?
You don't remember anything
do you about that night?
See, I, I know what I saw
and I know that I saw you
lying in there and I saw Walter
and.
Yeah, but what I'm trying to say is
that I'm sorry.
I should have helped you and I didn't.
I don't really know what's happening,
but I'm gonna help you.
I'm gonna make it up to
you and that's a promise.
I'm gonna get us outta
whateve the fuck this situation is.
Okay?
Do you wanna take a selfie?
Yeah, you do. I think that's
the best thing to do, right?
Let's have a look here. Okay.
Me and you the dream team.
Okay, now fuck that. It's my bad side.
Like, that's better. Okay.
3, 2, 1, smile.
There we go.
Okay, look at us.
It's a good picture.
I'm going to see what I can figure
out and I'm gonna be back to help you.
Okay?
- What are you doing?
- You need to leave.
You need to leave now.
You don't wanna see this.
Why you a gun in your hands?
You don't wanna see this?
The less, you know it's better.
- I need to do this.
-Come down.
Stop pointing the fucking gun at me.
I'm not fucking calm. I
don't want you to see this.
- Guys!
- Shut up.
Why did you do that?
- Why did you do that?
- Listen to me.
LEAVE! Well you better watch this.
You know, I would never hurt you, right?
I would never hurt
you. I just had to do this.
It's my letter. It's my letter. It's okay.
It's okay.
I'm really kind. They would,
they've taken everything from me.
You understand?
Shit. He's the one who knew.
Yours is the only one left.
Do you hear that guys?
His part is the only one left.
Hey, I'm - Just gonna take
you somewhere safe, okay?
Does this work okay? It's
all gonna be fine, I promise.
Fuck.
There must be a lift or something.
I'll be right back, okay?
Thinking about expanding
my company to this region,
You know, showing feelings has never been a
natural thing to me.
So just, just bare with me.
No matter what happens between you
and I'm leaving her.
She's not my life anymore.
I've done enough for her. And.
I want you to meet my daughter, Elsa.
No pressure. Of course,
I like where this is going.
What do you think?
What do you think?
She had a panic then
boy, is she tied up guys?
She was acting irrational. You
are going too far. She's out cold.
I need to do this. Okay, fine. Calm down.
What's in the fucking box?
Calm down.
Okay, fine, fine. What do
you need to do? Let me do this.
I need to do the
She's in the fucking box.
You've done your part.
Stop. Stop fighting. Fuck off.
I need to do this.
He can't kill her.
Just untie her.
You okay?
Isaac, you can't do
this without her parents'
consent. This is murderer.
But the girl, - it's her choice.
You're a fucking murderer,
Isaac. You can't do this.
I'm a murderer. Let me refresh your memory
before you blacked out.
It's, we, I am not doing this alone.
Because each and every
one of you is part of this.
Yeah, you all had it easy.
You're sweet, easy tasks,
and you don't pride yourself
with being so courageous.
We didn't want exactly shooting a dead man.
Get the fuck outta here.
I have to take the life
of an innocent child.
Isaac you'll go to jail.
I don't give a fuck about going to prison.
It's about my reputation.
Because where I come
from as a black man who has
to work three times as hard as every one
of you motherfuckers to
build the world I'm standing on,
I am not about to lose it all.
'Cause this is bigger and every one of us.
So please, please
just let me carry out my task.
I just want to get the
fuck outta this shit hole.
We are not killing her. We
need to know that she really.
Hundred percent really wants it.
Oh my God. You all lost your
fucking mind. She can't talk.
Elsa. I think there's been a little
bit of a confusion here.
I'm real sorry about that.
So, to reestablish our
line of communication,
I would need you to blink once
for yes, twice.
For no,
Wait, wait.
Do that again. Do it again.
Once for Yes.
- Was that a yes?
- You can't do that to her.
No one's encouraging
you to do this, right?
Cause you have a choice?
Choice? You do have a choice.
So we begin, okay?
There are some medical terms
and conditions that we have to go through
and I need to ask you if this
is what you really want to do.
Because if I inject those three doses
in you, I can't stop it.
I can't reverse it. Are you
sure this is what you want?
Okay,
Let us begin.
You sure that this is what you want?
This is what's gonna happen Elsa.
After the first dose, you'll
be hit with antic shock,
which will make you
feel completely relaxed.
The second dose will make
you fall into a deep coma.
The third dose, all
of your neuromuscular
activities will be blocked.
You will start breathing
and eventually your
heart will start beating.
What if we just done.
In the end, this is what you wanted.
Well, I'm gonna pack my suitcase.
You should all do the same.
I'm gonna go ahead and
get rid of the medical supplies.
What about the girl? We
can't just leave her here.
- Who is the girl to you? Malin?
- Excuse me?
I found these in your suitcase.
Are they for her?
The fuck? Yes they are.
I don't recall giving you permission.
To search my room.
You're the one behind this.
Am I? Guilt is a funny
way of showing itself. No.
Malin, look at me.
What is your involvement in all of this?
I'm still curious. Where
is your man, Thomas?
Is he coming?
No?
You all blame me.
And you know that he's
responsible for all of this.
Malin. Answer the question.
She's your daughter.
You're Thomas, ex-wife.
Hello everyone.
If I can just ask for everyone's attention.
Thank you for being here tonight.
Family.
Friends.
Colleagues.
I want to congratulate my wife,
Whom we welcome as our new news anchor.
All her life, she has been fighting
to find her own voice,
without fully reaching it.
And Malin has never given
up on her journalist dreams.
So I am happy that I can
help you reach your goals
and let you shine on your own.
And I think I speak for all of us here.
We are proud of you, and
think you deserve a real chance.
Cheers.
Thank you Thomas.
For believing in me.
That you, that you
finally, give me this chance
to be part of your network, your baby.
I hope I will be able to
live up to your expectations.
And as you all know
journalism is my biggest
passion, It's part of me.
To tell the truth,
enlighten important subject.
It has always been a part of my DNA.
Well. Give me the chance, and here I am.
Thank you.
So much fun.
Yo guys!
How are you doing? Look...
Guys, I just had to do this video because.
You've been with me
through all the ups and down.
And I love you for that.
Where ever you are.
All around the world, you
know guys where my heart is.
It's with you guys.
And honestly I...
I told you we are having a
party. Go back to your room.
But can I just get something to
drink. Calm down for fuck sake.
Excuse me, what did you say?
No, look at you.
Now you go up, and put something
on. We have guests. Go up to your room.
Mama, no one here cares about your party.
Everyone is just here to kiss dad's ass.
And go up to your room.
She's such a pain Sometimes.
Every mom is no. You want a beer?
Yeah.
So how is school?
- Yeah, it's okay.
- Are you having fun?
Any boys are giving you any trouble?
Not. Not really. No.
Come on, be honest.
I know what boys are
like here. Here your beer.
And don't tell your mom.
Well know that the other
broadcaster will come
to get your wife.
You gave her the spotlight.
And trust me, every
journalist dreams of it.
It's not on my concern.
She's old enough to fight her own battles.
Excuse me.
Sorry for being late.
How are you sweetie?
How fun you're here.
Welcome.
Thanks.
Even if you are two hours late.
No one arrives early at a party.
Congratulation.
Wow. Hey, you little party in here.
You're leaving me downstairs
having to deal with your wife.
You owe me one. Could have
done something way more fun
instead of being stuck here, Eh baby.
She needs distraction to
occupy her mind.
And I get the freedom that I need.
That sounds like a jail sentence.
I'm traveling next week. Oh,
You met someone new, huh?
Does your wife knows about her?
Are there more people coming?
Thought it would be a bit more.. Festive...
If I would have organized this party
It would have been.
I wish I would have been given the
same chance, as you have, when I started.
It is an incredible nice
gift he has given you.
I am just saying you have
taken advantage of the situation.
You're smart.
I should have done the same, but I,
I have always respected my integrity
I want to make my own fortune,
but hey, we are all different.
The only thing that matters Is the result.
Seriously, I am so happy for you.
Sure, you are.
Elsa?
Elsa?
My love, forgive me.
Forgive me for yelling. I did not mean it
My love, come down,
and talk to to me later.
I will be downstairs.
What?
Nothing.
Be a little happy. This party is for you.
I am happy.
Good.
Have you seen Valter?
No.
By the way, next week,
I am going to Germany.
It is the board's yearly hunt.
I am not quit sure when I will be back.
Why?
You do not even like
to kill animals anymore.
But perhaps there are other
ways to amuse yourself?
Yes.
Well someone needs to pay
for all of this. And it is not you
You should be a bit more
grateful for this chance.
No one wants to be here,
yet they are nonetheless.
Where were you? We've been looking for you.
I was smoking outside. Hey baby.
- Hey you!
- Did I miss anything? She drunk already?
- Yeah, she's getting there.
- Okay, Malin, let it go.
She's such a mess.
You are all free to leave
as long as you do. As I say.
If not, I will destroy you
and I will release all information
I have on each one of you.
Isaac. Elsa needed your help,
but you didn't allow
her to have that dignity.
Now, instead you thought about
yourself and your reputation.
Or do you have done the same
thing if it was your daughter?
No. You go back
to your life in London and if
you even think about revenge,
Thomas was against you
ending her life,
why didn't you respect his decision?
It was not his decision to make.
You really want to go down there with me.
Do you realize what you've done here?
There are cameras in
every corner of the castle.
You know what, I've gotta give it to you.
You're good. You got me.
There's something else you forgot.
You forgot to dig real deep
because down there there is a lion.
So until we meet again,
Good evening.
Do you have any comments
on the charges against you?
I have nothing to say. Can
you just leave. Just leave.
How does it feel to
responsible for your daughter's
I love her. Can you just leave
No mother should have to go through this.
Shame.
I am really sorry, but I
must share this with you.
But we detected drug residues in her blood.
That explains her dizziness.
But then when she fell into the
water, her spinal cord was injured.
Which led to her current syndrome.
It is called Locked in syndrome.
What is that?
It is a rare condition.
As a result she became
completely paralyzed.
She will never be able to speak, or walk.
Her only means of communication will
be through the movements of her eyes.
As of now, there is no cure.
I have a colleague in London,
who works with patients with
severe irreversible diagnosis.
What, what does that mean?
There is one more thing you need to know.
We discovered evidence of abuse.
Therefore we requested a
gynecologist to examine her.
And sperm was discovered in her vagina.
She seems to have been
raped during her drugging.
The police must therefore be aware
of what occurred, and investigate.
Thank you for helping me today.
I am certain Noah
thought you were beautiful.
Are you happy that you
finally got to meet him?
Now it is time to say goodbye.
I don't know if I'm ready.
I love you.
I have always been useless at saying it.
I should never have allowed
Valter to get close to you.
Then you should not be sitting here.
I promised you to fix it,
right? I did promise you.
I wish.
I could give anything
to see you grow old.
To fall in love.
To become a mother.
Are you ready?
You're strong.
You're so strong.
And I'm here.
The whole time.
When it happens.
I'm here with you.
Even if I don't say anything...
I am with you.
I love you.
You can do this. Focus.
I don't enjoy doing this
to you, but I have to.
Do you know who paid for you to come here?
Walter did. The money
came from his account.
And now I have a video of
you with my daughter just
before she was murdered.
Do you know what that
makes you? So option one,
you go back home and
you tell the police everything.
I will then leak everything I have on you
and you will lose your
followers, your sponsors,
your so-called work or will be gone.
I don't want to do that.
You're a good person.
You're not like them. Do you know.
Do you know what my
daughter's last wish was?
It was to meet you.
You made her so happy just before she died
and now you have to delete
the video of Esther and me.
And then I promise you
that nothing bad is gonna happen to you.
Sign the divorce papers and move on.
Every time I see her,
I see you.
Standing there drunk and ice cold
Watching her drowning,
without moving a finger.
I think a part of you wanted her to drown.
Stop saying that everything is my fault.
It is not me
who is still working with the
man who raped our daughter.
You made sure
that the investigation
against him was dropped
So you could save your
company from the scandal.
That was more important
than your daughter's life,
so stop thinking you are better
than me, you fucking hypocrite.
Valter did not touch her.
She got drugs from someone
in school. That's what happened.
You can refuse to sign all papers,
but that won't change a thing.
I want you to move out of here.
And regarding your work, I want you to
have nothing to do with my company anymore.
I will officially announce your departure.
It is best for me, and best for my company.
You will ruin me.
Don't try to fight me.
I will not hesitate to
release all the videos
I have from our surveillance cameras.
All the screaming.
The non stop fighting.
Everyone will see what a
fucking worthless mother you are.
You may be the one who
brought her to this world,
but I was the only one who loved her.
I will get full custody.
And you should be grateful for
the fucking money you will get.
Because you do not deserve any of it.
And when this divorce is finalized
I never want to see you,
or hear from you, ever again.
Get up!
Thomas never told me
that Esther would be here.
- I invited her.
- Why would you do that?
Well, did you make sure
the nurse is not coming back?
I did. What's your
master plan with all of this?
You make everyone sit
down at the dining table
and then you play the video on this iPad.
- What's on it?
- Do you need to know?
It doesn't matter. I did
everything you told me to do.
I brought them here. So now we're even.
Just give me that fucking DNA report.
What the fuck is that for - It's
for you Fucking shoot yourself.
You're insane. You know
that. I'm not doing anything
until I see that those
documents really exist.
I'm done with your shit. No
wonder he cheated on you
I would've done the same.
- Do you wanna do this?
- What.
Do you wanna do this?
- What?
- Picture this?
Tomorrow morning the police
will be knocking on your door.
Your family will get to
know who you really are.
The look on the faces, the horror,
your DNA, where was it again?
A rapist like you, they
don't survive in prison.
And now you probably wanna
take that gun and shoot me.
But you know what? That's too late. You do.
As I say, I'll be silent.
Your family will never know the truth.
Your wife and children,
might have a normal life.
You're fucking evil. And
I'm fucking taking you down.
Am I clear? There's no way out.
That's your only fucking way out.
How sad are you?
The only times he ever
mentioned you was to say
how cold-hearted you were.
I can see why. I didn't
do anything to deserve this.
You were dating a guy who
threw parties with pedophiles
and I'm the sad one.
Do you know how many sex
tapes? I found on his phone.
Did you guys do anything but fucking?
To him, you are nothing but a distraction.
He doesn't care about
you or your pregnancy.
No. If you choose to keep it,
you will have to raise it on your own.
Cause Thomas is going to prison.
And if you try to stop
me, your career is over
and your child will forever
be ashamed of its mother.
Oh my god, when I heard what had happened
I wanted to contact you immediately.
I am so happy you are doing this interview.
I believe your story will help people
to understand what really happened.
I hope so.
- Your place is in demand.
- What do you mean?
Oh, well, I drove a woman this morning.
She said she was spending
the weekend at your place.
Thomas!
What are you talking about?
I'm quiet.
Walter!
Walter.
Hello.
Hello.
Valter Muller's
positive match with Elsa Lundqvist.
Is it in place now? Good.
Are you ready?
So Malin, where do we start?
You've had a crazy journey.
Yes you can say that.
And thank you for inviting
us to your beautiful home.
What is this?
It's proof..
See, he he lied you. I
know it hurts. I know it hurts.
But he lied to me too and
he destroyed my life as he'll
destroy yours.
I think it's fair to say
that many people have misjudged you.
Including myself.
And for that I would like
to begin with an apology.
Thanks.
So what happened?
This can't be true.
He loves his daughter.
He loves his daughter.
He wanted me to meet her.
He wanted me to meet her.
He wanted me to sell.
You're lying. You're fake.
They're fucking fake. You're lying to me.
No, I'm not lying to me.
After Elsa's accident, Thomas
couldn't accept Elsa's condition
And he blamed it all on me.
Listen, there's the proof.
Do you see the proof? Do you see the proof.
He's gonna come any minute.
Be quiet. Stop talking.
For our audience who are unaware.
I just want to say, that Thomas, your
ex-husband, he was the CEO of this network
But after the accusations
against him, he has
now been dismissed,
and is under investigation.
Elsa wake up.
Elsa blink!
Wake up!
Elsa, blink for papa!
Blink!
His reputation, his success, and his money
For him, those are the only things
that matter, everything else is a threat.
He said in public that you
were responsible for her accident.
He has talked about your
obsession with your career.
How does that make you feel?
Thomas best weapon was to
bring me down, mentally abuse me.
One thing that is surprising in all this
Is that we, who knew,
your ex-husband I mean
He does not seem to
be like you describe him.
Just the thought of, it is shocking.
Thomas can charm anyone.
He had a love affair with another woman.
I don't think, he even
knew she was pregnant.
Thomas had problems, but I
would never think he's a murderer.
What can you tell us
about the other victim?
He was a colleague to
my husband, ex-husband.
I don't really know more about him.
But why did you keep quiet about
everything you knew about Thomas?
Because I was protecting my daughter.
I felt I did not have any other choice.
Can you tell us about your daughter?
That pain I feel...
It is something I would
not wish on my worst enemy.
She was
Brave
Wonderful
Helpless
My everything.
We are here for you.
Meanwhile I want you
to know, that this station
All of us love you, and we think
you are an amazing journalist.
Now, take the time you
need, and when you are ready
we can't wait to have you back on the air.
To watch you do what you do best.
Ok, we're done here.
Very nice. Well done. Thank
you for doing this interview.
If you can just .. Just take it off.
Now I am in a hurry. Are you
finished? The one on the back as well.
Yo, yo. Yo, yo, yo. Hello guys.
I know I have been absent for a while.
I just need a little bit of time
to get away from social media
and think about a few things, okay?
But in actual fact, I have
been traveling around Europe
and there I met this
incredible woman called.
Marlin Lungqvist.
Marlin was a renowned Swedish
reporter whose life was turned
upside down by her ex-husband
and media mogul Thomas Lungqvist.
Meeting Marlin was
enlightened to say the least,
suddenly changed my perspective on a few
things she taught me.
And not everybody is who they say they are.
And you've gotta keep a keen eye on things
that aren't what they seem.
I dedicate this to Marlin Lungqvist,
who at the very least,
knows exactly who she is.
My number's on the back.
Call me if you need a ride.
- Thank you.
- Bye.
Have a good day.
Thanks. You too.
Tell the mayor, I'm on my
way to the press conference.
Any details he wants to add
Just let me know, before I go live.
How is it possible?
I get it.
I'll check when I get there. I'm on my way.
I can be your home.
So you buying me now?
No passion.
Buying me with passion.
Yes, I am.
You know me.
I mean, it's fun.
It's fun and all that, but shit.
First time going to Shazfert Palace.
- Yeah.
- This castle is well known in the area.
It belongs to a wealthy CEO. Right.
He owns a big media company.
Usually there's no one there
until there are big
parties with a lot of people.
Yesterday when I passed
by, I saw someone there.
Neighbors used to complain about the noise,
but they, they don't even care anymore.
I always wanna know what
happens in there. No chance.
I'll be invited.
Let me get your luggage,
My number's on the back.
Call me if you need a ride.
- Thank you.
- Bye.
Can I help you?
Excuse me. Do do you speak English?
- I said, can I help you?
- Yeah. I'm here to see Thomas.
I was supposed to meet
him later today. I'm a bit early.
My name's Esther.
- Right?
- Well, I tried calling,
but there's no service around here.
No, he's still hunting.
So there's a bar around.
If you wanna wait for
him, he'll be back tonight.
Or I could just wait inside.
Yeah, whatever. Go inside.
The master bedroom is upstairs
first on the right.
Excuse me.
What is your name again? Walter.
Look, I get it.
I guess you don't know
who I am and why I'm here,
but ever since you picked
me up from the airport,
you fucking ignored me.
And I don't appreciate that.
And by the way, I thought
I was invited to a castle.
This is not a fucking
castle. It looks like a sex pit.
Well, it is a castle. It's your castle.
It's your castle for this
weekend. Any other questions?
Yes. When do I start? And
where the hell do I keep my bag?
Well, I'll come and get you
and tell you when it's your turn.
And concerning your bag.
You just pass that door and walk upstairs.
And that's where you
put your little tiny bag.
Fuck.
Hi. You are - Sorry. Who are you?
Dr. Isaac Iminu.
Okay. And you're here for what? Exactly.
Lemme guess You are
one of the organizers, right?
Organizers. This is Thomas's place.
I, I don't know what you're talking about.
I, I think you're confused.
- I'm confused.
- Yes, you are. Look, I'm just here to,
I hope I didn't make you guys wait.
And.
Who are you?
I'm Malin. The reporter.
The reporter.
- Are you being interviewed?
- Seriously. You too?
After a minute to two, you'll
forget the camera is there.
Right!
Well, I'm not being interviewed, so please,
when Thomas gets here, just tell him I'm
waiting for him in my room.
Waiting. We stay here.
I just talked to Thomas
and he's on his way back
and he wants you to stay
here with all the others.
- Let me talk to him.
- Wait, wait. Who is Thomas?
Well just be patient. Okay.
- Why are you here?
- Well, I'm here
to promote my new book.
That sounds interesting. What is it about?
Oh, it's about the importance of patient
freedom, of choice.
See, this spiritual
process is what allows us
to expand our landscape as well
as our moral views of the world today.
But I'm absolutely convinced
that in a moment of need,
a doctor's assistant,
death should be a choice and not a law.
Oh, I mean, what do you do?
I work in politics.
Seriously.
So what do you do?
I work at a local TV
channel in Stockholm.
I know it's not the most high profile,
but No, not very high profile. N.
But I'm really happy for what I can get.
Good. Yeah.
Why did I go and look for Walter?
I mean, he doesn't know what we are here.
Fuck me. Here comes another one.
Yo, guys, how are we doing?
1:00 PM like you asked. No?
Man, there's, there's no WiFi in my room,
so like, if you want me
to post content, you're
gonna have to sort that out.
Great. And he's Irish.
I'm sorry. What? You
got a problem with that?
Oh, not at all. For a matter
of fact, welcome to the party.
I love your style.
- Thank you. What's your name?
- Noah
I'm Malin.
So you're, you're part of the crew.
No. Are you speaking tonight, Walter?
What the fuck is he talking?
Well, what, what do you mean?
I'm, I'm back here to greet my German fans.
Hang on a minute.
Well, are you all done?
Let's meet in the dining room
and I'll answer all your questions.
This is ridiculous.
Wow. Your eyes they are captivating.
Yeah. Guess what they're saying?
Yeah, don't mind her.
Well, it's just a bit unclear
on why we are here.
Let's go.
You too, Esther.
I love the energy in this room.
I guess now's not the
time to ask for a group selfie.
Are you like a film actress or something?
No. What makes you think that?
Just the way that you present yourself.
I take that as a compliment.
So you some kind of a
Instagram celebrity, huh?
Well, the term is influencer,
but yeah, 20 million
people would like to take so.
So tell me something. What kind
of a grown ass man like you
makes kids videos for a living?
A grown ass man that makes
a lot more money than you.
You are funny.
The real reason why
you've been invited here is
that each of you has been
caught in the middle of a scandal.
What are you talking about? Scandal?
How exciting - This guy. Serious.
- What the fuck?
- I'm outta here.
Oh, this just gets better.
Sit down.
I'm gonna go check on my doctor colleagues.
Open the fucking door.
It would be in your
best interest to see this.
Dr. Isaac Amanu, based in London, known
for his controversial preaching
of defending patients'
rights to end their life.
Although this practice
is still illegal in England,
he went on to perform it
knowing full well he would risk 14
years in prison per case.
The following recording if released,
could jeopardize his whole practice.
It's a practice I strongly believe in,
but I'm not sure I'm the
right person at this time for you
to speak to.
As you know, there's a lot of
controversy about my belief on
this subject matter, and
I prefer treating patients.
I followed from the very
beginning in this process.
But my colleagues told
me about your situation,
and I'm deeply sorry.
My wife thinks going
forward with the procedure,
is the the right thing to do here?
- That's Thomas' voice.
- Do you agree?
I can't even think about it right now.
I only called you doctor
because I wanted to
discuss the alternatives here.
I'm sure if your doctor
referred it to me, it's
because it is the right thing to do.
Where the fuck did you get this from?
How many patients have you
treated in this way so far?
So far eight.
Where the fuck did you get this from man?
This is a conversation
between a patient and a doctor.
This is illegal.
Malin Bergman,
Swedish journalist whose
daughter died in a terrible
accident, is well known
for her controversial story.
She's been accused of letting
her child drown while watching.
After the investigation,
she was found not guilty of all charges.
Evidence has now resurfaced
that if released could prove otherwise.
You should learn how to swim. Do you
hear what I'm saying. You swim ten laps.
Look at you.
You are so weak.
Than it's time to learn.
I don't know how to swim.
I can't swim.
Do you want to die?
Do you?
Swim! Swim! Swim!
Noah Byrne influencer,
based in Dublin, was invited
to a prestigious party
throughout the night.
He got involved in sexual
activities with underage girls.
The following video is proof
of this atrocity if released,
he will face social media alienation
and most properly serve time.
Oh fuck. Sorry. Sorry, man.
Come on. Come on. She's, she's fair game.
Trust me. Come on. She's all yours.
Get in man.
You won't regret it. Come on.
How old is she?
You'll find out.
Esther Sitali secretary
for the mayor of Rome,
married to a motivational coach
and secretly having an affair
with an also married CEO Thomas Lungqvist.
The following is a preview
of a private sex tape
that if leaked would
immediately end both their
marriage and career.
Stop that video now.
Are you gonna choke me?
I'm so fucking wet right
now. That's a private video.
That's personal.
Are you gonna put your hard cock inside me?
Turn it off.
And finally, Walter Mueller, pedophile
and business partner of Thomas Lungqvist
Walter is not only known
for his great business skills,
but also a private
organizer of luxurious parties
where his main focus is taking
advantage of underage girls.
Thank you for using AI text
to speech AI audio software.
You're fucking kidding me.
- What the fuck?
- I'm finished.
- You killed your daughter?
- HEY!
You touched underage girl.
Hey, fuck you man. I didn't
touch nobody. Fuck you.
You didn't touch? No. Shut
the fuck up. She's gonna fuck.
Fuck sake.
He's fucking dead.
- Fuck. What the fuck happened?
- Let's all calm down.
For fuck sake. We must do something.
I go to the neighbors.
You can't. It's a crime scene.
- What the fuck?
- Do you wanna go to jail?
- We can't call the police.
- No, you can't do that.
- We need to get outta here.
- We need to get out of there.
I need to get outta here.
What the fuck just happened?
We've just been blackmailed.
But then we need to call the police. Man.
- There's no service.
- - I mean, you told us you called.
Or spoke to Thomas earlier.
Fuck that? I'll just go into the
street and not find somebody.
- We can't do that.
- I've done nothing wrong.
He's right. We can't do that.
Whoever stole the videos must have copies.
We must do something.
Look at me. I need you to
come clean with me right now.
You've hanged out with Thomas
and this motherfucker right here.
- What's the deal?
- No,
I have met Walter once.
I've never met Thomas in my life.
You are the one that seems to know Thomas.
Oh, you really want to go down that road?
This motherfucker just
blew his fucking brains out.
And I just want to get
to the fucking bottom of it.
And you are telling me, you don't know?
Hey, do not touch that body.
Yeah, you, you know Thomas,
he's clearly hiding something from you.
"I don't care what you
think unless it is about me."
"I've never seen a greater
monster or miracle than myself."
"In the group, shoot the one who knew"
"I am not a victim of
emotional conflicts. I am human."
Hey, you got one of
those two. What's it say?
My passport gone missing. I think.
You don't think Walter would've taken it?
I dunno.
I'll go check. Are you coming?
Just gimme a five minute.
Hey man. Look,
I think that Walter might
have stolen my passport.
Well, we're in Walter's room.
You sure you didn't misplace it?
Yeah. No, man. It was, it was
on my desk and now it's not.
So someone must have
taken it. Have you got yours?
I found the landline. It's not working.
Now guys, I think maybe it's best if we
stick together from now on.
Well think. How well do you know Thomas?
I mean, it's his castle.
And how would they get hold
of your videos if he's not involved?
Well, how would he have your videos?
But it is his castle, right?
So he must have something to do with it.
Or he was hacked.
Why would he jeopardize
his career like that?
See, I don't know about
all that hacking stuff.
All I know Mr. Thomas illegally recorded my
conversation. I need to find him.
Oh yeah. And do what exactly?
Torture him till he tells
you what you want to hear.
Maybe.
Oh, maybe. Or maybe just
kill him just in case it was him.
Can you just stop it? Seriously, I just go
to the closest neighbor and
ask them to call the police.
We have done nothing wrong here.
Hello, miss reporter
in case you didn't
know, I'm not going to jail
and I don't think you
want to join me there.
What if he has more videos?
It can't be fucking Thomas. All right?
He doesn't have any videos.
Can you stop giving him
the benefit of the doubt?
- Can you just stop and mind your business?
- Excuse me.
If someone is playing
with my life, I have the right
to ask any question I want.
- Stop that.
- Are you fucking
videoing us?
Oh, it's such you're fucking crazy for you.
Fuck this. I'm done
with your bullshit guys.
Esther, what are you doing?
We should stick together.
Are you all right? You know you should.
You should drink a little water,
It will release the morning sickness.
Well, as a, as a mother,
you have a sixth sense about these things.
How do the two of you meet?
At a conference in Italy.
Is he the father?
What is that?
- - I don't know.
Where's Noah?
- Is he someone else's here?
- It's coming from upstairs.
Isaac. Go check.
Are you kidding me?
You go check.
Fuck that.
There's a letter.
Hi.
My name is Isaac.
I'm a doctor.
Can you hear me?
She is paralyzed.
What does this say?
By 6:00 PM you'll have
to completed your tasks.
Otherwise, your videos will be leaked
to all media platforms worldwide.
Oh my God,
thank you all for coming.
Do you know who invited us?
Do you know why we're here?
She clearly can't talk.
Where's the nurse?
I mean, someone must look after her.
Where you going?
Ain't you coming? Come on.
She can't hear us right
now. I mean, far away.
We can't trust her. We don't
know who she's, we need
to figure out what they want us to do.
I call bullshit.
It's gonna be a whole lot of
people going down if that video
and information gets out.
Question is, are you willing
to bet your life on that?
What did your letter say?
- How do you know I got one?
- I think everybody got one.
Where's Esther? What do your say?
Yeah, what did your
say - In the group shoot?
In the group shoot the one who knew.
What?
Guys, I thought the whole point of this was
that we all stick together from now on.
For fuck's sake. Is it the
girl? Is the girl doing this?
- Can't fake paralysis.
- How would you know?
You checked her for one second,
Guys!
What did you do in your room,
Guys?
What?
The tape?
It's different right? Listen,
Your part is missing.
I suggest you start to
explain what the fuck you've just done.
Thomas Lungqvist.
Has manipulated me for the past year
at events and parties.
He has often drugged me without my consent.
All of this, he has done
for his sexual pleasures.
I know I'm not the only one.
- Is that true?
- No.
It's not fucking true
instructions that I had to choose
between Thomas or you.
- We can't trust her.
- No shit.
Look how quickly she turns
against the guy that she loves.
- What?
- Let me get this straight.
If it's true that you
followed your instructions,
then whoever's in control
of the recording must have known in order
to take your part out and play it again.
Now, Esther, either you're lying to us or.
Oh, come on man. Look at
her. She knows something.
That's fucking clear, isn't it?
You hypocrites.
You know what guys? I've done my shit.
I can go, yeah,
- I can go.
- Oh fuck no you can't.
Noah, - Noah, Noah,
Stupid motherfucker.
Delete my video.
It's not me. Oh, no worries. It's not me.
Put the fucking gun down.
I swear. Delete the video.
I don't have the fucking video.
A car.
What is he doing?
Don't open the door.
If she's got nothing to hide,
she won't make show on her face.
- Can I help?
- Sorry to bother you.
I wasn't sure if you, we still there.
You lost your earring in my cab.
You really didn't need
to come the way back.
No worries. I just got a call that I have
to pick up another
client that is hours away.
So I was passing in
front of the castle anyway.
- Well, thanks.
- How's the party?
It's crazy.
You knew him - We all came
here with Walter except you.
She knows him.
See,
am I the only one with some
kind of logic around here?
If one of us leaves right
now, what guarantees us
that we would've done exactly
what they wanted us to do?
If we don't, it gets leaked.
If we run, it gets leaked.
How much time do we have?
We don't have that much time left.
And you pretty boy, come
on, put the gun down.
You look like an idiot.
Why did you just me, -
Noah, Noah, Noah, look at me.
Give me the gun, Isaac. Leave him alone.
This man here is pointing a gun at me,
and I'm the irrational one here.
I tell you what.
This how this is gonna go down
from now on, I'm running the show
until we figure out who's
doing what and why.
I put my trust in myself.
- Okay. Guys!
- By the way, my man, with your prints
and that gun, you have
just gone from accessory
to murder to second degree.
I don't know about you guys,
but I'm about to rip this castle bit
by bit because guess what?
I am not getting blackmailed
or extorted by anyone.
Good luck.
Like Isaac, I'm not going to prison.
Just put that gun down.
I know you're scared. Okay?
But you know, I don't have the videos.
Just put that come down.
Okay? Now let's think.
Okay, let's think together.
What did you letter say?
My sin is ever before me.
I dunno what that means.
It's from the bible,
it's a whole passage
about forgiveness.
Just think, put that gun down, alright?
Just think. Is there
anyone you need to forgive?
I think we should establish some sort
of communication so we can help each other.
So if you could blink one for yes
twice for no.
Do you understand me?
What is it? Is it for me?
I was looking for you.
Can I sit down?
Oh, that's nice.
Are you okay?
Yeah I'm alright?
Would you have shot him?
I don't believe we're born bad.
It's his life that changes us.
For years, people accuse
me of being unstable today.
I know who I am.
Do you know who you are?
She is able to respond by blinking.
Do you know this girl?
Her name's Elsa. She's Thomas's daughter.
- How old is she?
- I don't know.
About 17.
She's about the same
age as my daughter Sophia.
Look at her. Isaac, we
need to get her out of here.
We all need to get outta here.
What did you let her say?
I come here to this
fucking castle in the middle
of fucking nowhere and there's this huge
party going on, right?
But there's no one there to greet me.
Hmm?
I go in and no one seems
to know why I'm there
or who I am.
I see what fucking Walter is doing
and I freak out and I left.
What are you saying?
The girl upstairs in a wheelchair.
I'm pretty sure that that's
the fucking girl. Right?
I get the feeling Malin
and Noah have met before.
Why do you keep avoiding the question?
How does a high profile
individuals, such as you
get yourself mixed up
with this kind of guys.
Talking about it won't help us right now,
but you know what will, if you tell me
what your fucking
letter says,
look, I know how that fucking video looks,
but I didn't do nothing.
You have to believe
me. I didn't do anything.
I just went into that fucking room
so I could see what was going on.
And as soon as I knew
she was fucking underage,
I fucking left.
I fucking left.
Do you know who the fuck I am?
Well, you think it's
easy for me to take a live
of a young girl just because
I think it's the right medical
decision to do.
Do you know what it's like to
watch someone take their last breath.
The feeling in your heart that
it could be someone that you love?
Don't you fucking touch her?
I know that I'm selfish.
I know that all I give
a fuck about is money.
But I'm not the same as
that fucking man. I am not.
Into fucking underage fucking girls.
And I know, I fucking know
I should have fucking stayed.
Now you know who you are.
- Where are you going?
- I can't sit here all day.
But you know what you have to do.
Hello?
I'm sorry about before I,
I feel like we just came barging in.
You must be pretty startled.
Everybody's a little confused
at the moment, you know?
So I bet you're, I bet you're confused.
Look, I'm, I'm just gonna,
can I, can I join you?
Can I just pull that chair up?
You don't remember anything
do you about that night?
See, I, I know what I saw
and I know that I saw you
lying in there and I saw Walter
and.
Yeah, but what I'm trying to say is
that I'm sorry.
I should have helped you and I didn't.
I don't really know what's happening,
but I'm gonna help you.
I'm gonna make it up to
you and that's a promise.
I'm gonna get us outta
whateve the fuck this situation is.
Okay?
Do you wanna take a selfie?
Yeah, you do. I think that's
the best thing to do, right?
Let's have a look here. Okay.
Me and you the dream team.
Okay, now fuck that. It's my bad side.
Like, that's better. Okay.
3, 2, 1, smile.
There we go.
Okay, look at us.
It's a good picture.
I'm going to see what I can figure
out and I'm gonna be back to help you.
Okay?
- What are you doing?
- You need to leave.
You need to leave now.
You don't wanna see this.
Why you a gun in your hands?
You don't wanna see this?
The less, you know it's better.
- I need to do this.
-Come down.
Stop pointing the fucking gun at me.
I'm not fucking calm. I
don't want you to see this.
- Guys!
- Shut up.
Why did you do that?
- Why did you do that?
- Listen to me.
LEAVE! Well you better watch this.
You know, I would never hurt you, right?
I would never hurt
you. I just had to do this.
It's my letter. It's my letter. It's okay.
It's okay.
I'm really kind. They would,
they've taken everything from me.
You understand?
Shit. He's the one who knew.
Yours is the only one left.
Do you hear that guys?
His part is the only one left.
Hey, I'm - Just gonna take
you somewhere safe, okay?
Does this work okay? It's
all gonna be fine, I promise.
Fuck.
There must be a lift or something.
I'll be right back, okay?
Thinking about expanding
my company to this region,
You know, showing feelings has never been a
natural thing to me.
So just, just bare with me.
No matter what happens between you
and I'm leaving her.
She's not my life anymore.
I've done enough for her. And.
I want you to meet my daughter, Elsa.
No pressure. Of course,
I like where this is going.
What do you think?
What do you think?
She had a panic then
boy, is she tied up guys?
She was acting irrational. You
are going too far. She's out cold.
I need to do this. Okay, fine. Calm down.
What's in the fucking box?
Calm down.
Okay, fine, fine. What do
you need to do? Let me do this.
I need to do the
She's in the fucking box.
You've done your part.
Stop. Stop fighting. Fuck off.
I need to do this.
He can't kill her.
Just untie her.
You okay?
Isaac, you can't do
this without her parents'
consent. This is murderer.
But the girl, - it's her choice.
You're a fucking murderer,
Isaac. You can't do this.
I'm a murderer. Let me refresh your memory
before you blacked out.
It's, we, I am not doing this alone.
Because each and every
one of you is part of this.
Yeah, you all had it easy.
You're sweet, easy tasks,
and you don't pride yourself
with being so courageous.
We didn't want exactly shooting a dead man.
Get the fuck outta here.
I have to take the life
of an innocent child.
Isaac you'll go to jail.
I don't give a fuck about going to prison.
It's about my reputation.
Because where I come
from as a black man who has
to work three times as hard as every one
of you motherfuckers to
build the world I'm standing on,
I am not about to lose it all.
'Cause this is bigger and every one of us.
So please, please
just let me carry out my task.
I just want to get the
fuck outta this shit hole.
We are not killing her. We
need to know that she really.
Hundred percent really wants it.
Oh my God. You all lost your
fucking mind. She can't talk.
Elsa. I think there's been a little
bit of a confusion here.
I'm real sorry about that.
So, to reestablish our
line of communication,
I would need you to blink once
for yes, twice.
For no,
Wait, wait.
Do that again. Do it again.
Once for Yes.
- Was that a yes?
- You can't do that to her.
No one's encouraging
you to do this, right?
Cause you have a choice?
Choice? You do have a choice.
So we begin, okay?
There are some medical terms
and conditions that we have to go through
and I need to ask you if this
is what you really want to do.
Because if I inject those three doses
in you, I can't stop it.
I can't reverse it. Are you
sure this is what you want?
Okay,
Let us begin.
You sure that this is what you want?
This is what's gonna happen Elsa.
After the first dose, you'll
be hit with antic shock,
which will make you
feel completely relaxed.
The second dose will make
you fall into a deep coma.
The third dose, all
of your neuromuscular
activities will be blocked.
You will start breathing
and eventually your
heart will start beating.
What if we just done.
In the end, this is what you wanted.
Well, I'm gonna pack my suitcase.
You should all do the same.
I'm gonna go ahead and
get rid of the medical supplies.
What about the girl? We
can't just leave her here.
- Who is the girl to you? Malin?
- Excuse me?
I found these in your suitcase.
Are they for her?
The fuck? Yes they are.
I don't recall giving you permission.
To search my room.
You're the one behind this.
Am I? Guilt is a funny
way of showing itself. No.
Malin, look at me.
What is your involvement in all of this?
I'm still curious. Where
is your man, Thomas?
Is he coming?
No?
You all blame me.
And you know that he's
responsible for all of this.
Malin. Answer the question.
She's your daughter.
You're Thomas, ex-wife.
Hello everyone.
If I can just ask for everyone's attention.
Thank you for being here tonight.
Family.
Friends.
Colleagues.
I want to congratulate my wife,
Whom we welcome as our new news anchor.
All her life, she has been fighting
to find her own voice,
without fully reaching it.
And Malin has never given
up on her journalist dreams.
So I am happy that I can
help you reach your goals
and let you shine on your own.
And I think I speak for all of us here.
We are proud of you, and
think you deserve a real chance.
Cheers.
Thank you Thomas.
For believing in me.
That you, that you
finally, give me this chance
to be part of your network, your baby.
I hope I will be able to
live up to your expectations.
And as you all know
journalism is my biggest
passion, It's part of me.
To tell the truth,
enlighten important subject.
It has always been a part of my DNA.
Well. Give me the chance, and here I am.
Thank you.
So much fun.
Yo guys!
How are you doing? Look...
Guys, I just had to do this video because.
You've been with me
through all the ups and down.
And I love you for that.
Where ever you are.
All around the world, you
know guys where my heart is.
It's with you guys.
And honestly I...
I told you we are having a
party. Go back to your room.
But can I just get something to
drink. Calm down for fuck sake.
Excuse me, what did you say?
No, look at you.
Now you go up, and put something
on. We have guests. Go up to your room.
Mama, no one here cares about your party.
Everyone is just here to kiss dad's ass.
And go up to your room.
She's such a pain Sometimes.
Every mom is no. You want a beer?
Yeah.
So how is school?
- Yeah, it's okay.
- Are you having fun?
Any boys are giving you any trouble?
Not. Not really. No.
Come on, be honest.
I know what boys are
like here. Here your beer.
And don't tell your mom.
Well know that the other
broadcaster will come
to get your wife.
You gave her the spotlight.
And trust me, every
journalist dreams of it.
It's not on my concern.
She's old enough to fight her own battles.
Excuse me.
Sorry for being late.
How are you sweetie?
How fun you're here.
Welcome.
Thanks.
Even if you are two hours late.
No one arrives early at a party.
Congratulation.
Wow. Hey, you little party in here.
You're leaving me downstairs
having to deal with your wife.
You owe me one. Could have
done something way more fun
instead of being stuck here, Eh baby.
She needs distraction to
occupy her mind.
And I get the freedom that I need.
That sounds like a jail sentence.
I'm traveling next week. Oh,
You met someone new, huh?
Does your wife knows about her?
Are there more people coming?
Thought it would be a bit more.. Festive...
If I would have organized this party
It would have been.
I wish I would have been given the
same chance, as you have, when I started.
It is an incredible nice
gift he has given you.
I am just saying you have
taken advantage of the situation.
You're smart.
I should have done the same, but I,
I have always respected my integrity
I want to make my own fortune,
but hey, we are all different.
The only thing that matters Is the result.
Seriously, I am so happy for you.
Sure, you are.
Elsa?
Elsa?
My love, forgive me.
Forgive me for yelling. I did not mean it
My love, come down,
and talk to to me later.
I will be downstairs.
What?
Nothing.
Be a little happy. This party is for you.
I am happy.
Good.
Have you seen Valter?
No.
By the way, next week,
I am going to Germany.
It is the board's yearly hunt.
I am not quit sure when I will be back.
Why?
You do not even like
to kill animals anymore.
But perhaps there are other
ways to amuse yourself?
Yes.
Well someone needs to pay
for all of this. And it is not you
You should be a bit more
grateful for this chance.
No one wants to be here,
yet they are nonetheless.
Where were you? We've been looking for you.
I was smoking outside. Hey baby.
- Hey you!
- Did I miss anything? She drunk already?
- Yeah, she's getting there.
- Okay, Malin, let it go.
She's such a mess.
You are all free to leave
as long as you do. As I say.
If not, I will destroy you
and I will release all information
I have on each one of you.
Isaac. Elsa needed your help,
but you didn't allow
her to have that dignity.
Now, instead you thought about
yourself and your reputation.
Or do you have done the same
thing if it was your daughter?
No. You go back
to your life in London and if
you even think about revenge,
Thomas was against you
ending her life,
why didn't you respect his decision?
It was not his decision to make.
You really want to go down there with me.
Do you realize what you've done here?
There are cameras in
every corner of the castle.
You know what, I've gotta give it to you.
You're good. You got me.
There's something else you forgot.
You forgot to dig real deep
because down there there is a lion.
So until we meet again,
Good evening.
Do you have any comments
on the charges against you?
I have nothing to say. Can
you just leave. Just leave.
How does it feel to
responsible for your daughter's
I love her. Can you just leave
No mother should have to go through this.
Shame.
I am really sorry, but I
must share this with you.
But we detected drug residues in her blood.
That explains her dizziness.
But then when she fell into the
water, her spinal cord was injured.
Which led to her current syndrome.
It is called Locked in syndrome.
What is that?
It is a rare condition.
As a result she became
completely paralyzed.
She will never be able to speak, or walk.
Her only means of communication will
be through the movements of her eyes.
As of now, there is no cure.
I have a colleague in London,
who works with patients with
severe irreversible diagnosis.
What, what does that mean?
There is one more thing you need to know.
We discovered evidence of abuse.
Therefore we requested a
gynecologist to examine her.
And sperm was discovered in her vagina.
She seems to have been
raped during her drugging.
The police must therefore be aware
of what occurred, and investigate.
Thank you for helping me today.
I am certain Noah
thought you were beautiful.
Are you happy that you
finally got to meet him?
Now it is time to say goodbye.
I don't know if I'm ready.
I love you.
I have always been useless at saying it.
I should never have allowed
Valter to get close to you.
Then you should not be sitting here.
I promised you to fix it,
right? I did promise you.
I wish.
I could give anything
to see you grow old.
To fall in love.
To become a mother.
Are you ready?
You're strong.
You're so strong.
And I'm here.
The whole time.
When it happens.
I'm here with you.
Even if I don't say anything...
I am with you.
I love you.
You can do this. Focus.
I don't enjoy doing this
to you, but I have to.
Do you know who paid for you to come here?
Walter did. The money
came from his account.
And now I have a video of
you with my daughter just
before she was murdered.
Do you know what that
makes you? So option one,
you go back home and
you tell the police everything.
I will then leak everything I have on you
and you will lose your
followers, your sponsors,
your so-called work or will be gone.
I don't want to do that.
You're a good person.
You're not like them. Do you know.
Do you know what my
daughter's last wish was?
It was to meet you.
You made her so happy just before she died
and now you have to delete
the video of Esther and me.
And then I promise you
that nothing bad is gonna happen to you.
Sign the divorce papers and move on.
Every time I see her,
I see you.
Standing there drunk and ice cold
Watching her drowning,
without moving a finger.
I think a part of you wanted her to drown.
Stop saying that everything is my fault.
It is not me
who is still working with the
man who raped our daughter.
You made sure
that the investigation
against him was dropped
So you could save your
company from the scandal.
That was more important
than your daughter's life,
so stop thinking you are better
than me, you fucking hypocrite.
Valter did not touch her.
She got drugs from someone
in school. That's what happened.
You can refuse to sign all papers,
but that won't change a thing.
I want you to move out of here.
And regarding your work, I want you to
have nothing to do with my company anymore.
I will officially announce your departure.
It is best for me, and best for my company.
You will ruin me.
Don't try to fight me.
I will not hesitate to
release all the videos
I have from our surveillance cameras.
All the screaming.
The non stop fighting.
Everyone will see what a
fucking worthless mother you are.
You may be the one who
brought her to this world,
but I was the only one who loved her.
I will get full custody.
And you should be grateful for
the fucking money you will get.
Because you do not deserve any of it.
And when this divorce is finalized
I never want to see you,
or hear from you, ever again.
Get up!
Thomas never told me
that Esther would be here.
- I invited her.
- Why would you do that?
Well, did you make sure
the nurse is not coming back?
I did. What's your
master plan with all of this?
You make everyone sit
down at the dining table
and then you play the video on this iPad.
- What's on it?
- Do you need to know?
It doesn't matter. I did
everything you told me to do.
I brought them here. So now we're even.
Just give me that fucking DNA report.
What the fuck is that for - It's
for you Fucking shoot yourself.
You're insane. You know
that. I'm not doing anything
until I see that those
documents really exist.
I'm done with your shit. No
wonder he cheated on you
I would've done the same.
- Do you wanna do this?
- What.
Do you wanna do this?
- What?
- Picture this?
Tomorrow morning the police
will be knocking on your door.
Your family will get to
know who you really are.
The look on the faces, the horror,
your DNA, where was it again?
A rapist like you, they
don't survive in prison.
And now you probably wanna
take that gun and shoot me.
But you know what? That's too late. You do.
As I say, I'll be silent.
Your family will never know the truth.
Your wife and children,
might have a normal life.
You're fucking evil. And
I'm fucking taking you down.
Am I clear? There's no way out.
That's your only fucking way out.
How sad are you?
The only times he ever
mentioned you was to say
how cold-hearted you were.
I can see why. I didn't
do anything to deserve this.
You were dating a guy who
threw parties with pedophiles
and I'm the sad one.
Do you know how many sex
tapes? I found on his phone.
Did you guys do anything but fucking?
To him, you are nothing but a distraction.
He doesn't care about
you or your pregnancy.
No. If you choose to keep it,
you will have to raise it on your own.
Cause Thomas is going to prison.
And if you try to stop
me, your career is over
and your child will forever
be ashamed of its mother.
Oh my god, when I heard what had happened
I wanted to contact you immediately.
I am so happy you are doing this interview.
I believe your story will help people
to understand what really happened.
I hope so.
- Your place is in demand.
- What do you mean?
Oh, well, I drove a woman this morning.
She said she was spending
the weekend at your place.
Thomas!
What are you talking about?
I'm quiet.
Walter!
Walter.
Hello.
Hello.
Valter Muller's
positive match with Elsa Lundqvist.
Is it in place now? Good.
Are you ready?
So Malin, where do we start?
You've had a crazy journey.
Yes you can say that.
And thank you for inviting
us to your beautiful home.
What is this?
It's proof..
See, he he lied you. I
know it hurts. I know it hurts.
But he lied to me too and
he destroyed my life as he'll
destroy yours.
I think it's fair to say
that many people have misjudged you.
Including myself.
And for that I would like
to begin with an apology.
Thanks.
So what happened?
This can't be true.
He loves his daughter.
He loves his daughter.
He wanted me to meet her.
He wanted me to meet her.
He wanted me to sell.
You're lying. You're fake.
They're fucking fake. You're lying to me.
No, I'm not lying to me.
After Elsa's accident, Thomas
couldn't accept Elsa's condition
And he blamed it all on me.
Listen, there's the proof.
Do you see the proof? Do you see the proof.
He's gonna come any minute.
Be quiet. Stop talking.
For our audience who are unaware.
I just want to say, that Thomas, your
ex-husband, he was the CEO of this network
But after the accusations
against him, he has
now been dismissed,
and is under investigation.
Elsa wake up.
Elsa blink!
Wake up!
Elsa, blink for papa!
Blink!
His reputation, his success, and his money
For him, those are the only things
that matter, everything else is a threat.
He said in public that you
were responsible for her accident.
He has talked about your
obsession with your career.
How does that make you feel?
Thomas best weapon was to
bring me down, mentally abuse me.
One thing that is surprising in all this
Is that we, who knew,
your ex-husband I mean
He does not seem to
be like you describe him.
Just the thought of, it is shocking.
Thomas can charm anyone.
He had a love affair with another woman.
I don't think, he even
knew she was pregnant.
Thomas had problems, but I
would never think he's a murderer.
What can you tell us
about the other victim?
He was a colleague to
my husband, ex-husband.
I don't really know more about him.
But why did you keep quiet about
everything you knew about Thomas?
Because I was protecting my daughter.
I felt I did not have any other choice.
Can you tell us about your daughter?
That pain I feel...
It is something I would
not wish on my worst enemy.
She was
Brave
Wonderful
Helpless
My everything.
We are here for you.
Meanwhile I want you
to know, that this station
All of us love you, and we think
you are an amazing journalist.
Now, take the time you
need, and when you are ready
we can't wait to have you back on the air.
To watch you do what you do best.
Ok, we're done here.
Very nice. Well done. Thank
you for doing this interview.
If you can just .. Just take it off.
Now I am in a hurry. Are you
finished? The one on the back as well.
Yo, yo. Yo, yo, yo. Hello guys.
I know I have been absent for a while.
I just need a little bit of time
to get away from social media
and think about a few things, okay?
But in actual fact, I have
been traveling around Europe
and there I met this
incredible woman called.
Marlin Lungqvist.
Marlin was a renowned Swedish
reporter whose life was turned
upside down by her ex-husband
and media mogul Thomas Lungqvist.
Meeting Marlin was
enlightened to say the least,
suddenly changed my perspective on a few
things she taught me.
And not everybody is who they say they are.
And you've gotta keep a keen eye on things
that aren't what they seem.
I dedicate this to Marlin Lungqvist,
who at the very least,
knows exactly who she is.
My number's on the back.
Call me if you need a ride.
- Thank you.
- Bye.
