Oderbruch (2024) s01e07 Episode Script
Narben
(Maggie) How's Adrian doing?
His father won't let me see him anymore.
But they said he's going to make it.
He'll probably never be able to walk again.
Where did you get these?
-From Powder Paul.
-Maybe there's another way to help your brother.
-This is the only way,
to get my father to leave Kai alone.
And what if your father
forces the issue?
Tonight, behind the house.
If everything stays quiet,
I'll flash the light
three times.
Then you can come back home
and we'll see each other
tomorrow at school.
But if you hear gunshots,
we're running away together.
I'll be there.
If you hear gunshots,
we're running away together.
(Intro music)
(Unintelligible Polish voices outside)
(Gun cocks)
(Polish) Hands up. Turn around slowly.
(German) We called you. Found a body.
We're search and rescue. Here. ID.
Okay.
(Woman) Junkie. Looks like suicide.
But probably nothing to do with Krewlow.
You said on the phone you'd send
a Polish police officer.
(Polish) Hello.
-Hello.
We're the Polish help
who called.
Are you the Polish commissioner?
-Where did the car come from?
A German colleague
of yours is already here.
Thank you.
What are you doing here?
Wait in the car. We'll talk soon.
What are you doing here?
I've been tracking Maggie's stops.
Put a GPS tracker in her car.
She was here?
-Mmhm.
Then she's involved.
Either you talk to me
or I'll take you to Goldhofer
and you can talk to him.
(Handy voice, Romanian) Do you know
anyone with the last name Conrady?
I'm trying to find
my family's ancestors
and I'm looking for
locals who were here
already around 1945
and can still remember
that time.
So, people
over 90 years old.
I've heard that before the war,
many people disappeared
without a trace here in Iacobeni.
Do you know anyone
with the last name Conrady?
Okay.
Does this man look familiar to him?
(Romanian) Do you know this man?
He's probably from Iacobeni
and is now as old as he is.
[Translated into Romanian]
That's what he looked like
when he lived here.
[Translated into Romanian]
[Soft Grumbling]
(Romanian)
I don't know this man.
Send them away with their photographs.
Does he recognize him?
And I don't want to talk anymore.
He doesn't know the man.
Sorry.
Thank you.
Kai Kring is alive.
Where's the case with his files?
-In the trunk.
You said Maggie made two stops in Poland?
-Mhm.
Where did she go after that?
Hello.
-Hello.
What's this about?
-Can I speak to your boss?
On vacation.
Won't be back for two weeks.
Have you seen this woman recently?
Yes.
-What did she want here?
She bought blood. A gallon.
She bought blood. Almost 4 liters.
Where did she go after that?
-The signal was lost then.
Follow me.
I want to show you something.
We both don't exactly
play by the rules.
Here. I worked on this in 2007.
"Homeless boy
in Warsaw disappeared."
Four years later, in Yeferem,
a tiny village in Siberia,
dozens of dead bodies were discovered.
In a cave.
I never would have found out about it,
if they hadn't found
this pacemaker
on one of the bodies.
Did it belong to the missing boy?
-Exactly.
The whole thing stuck with me.
How did a penniless child
end up in this cave, in Siberia?
So I took a vacation.
In Yeferem.
In the village, they told me
that there are supposed
to be people there
who feed on blood.
I had the same look on my face.
[Laughs] But then:
A girl in Guatemala
cut her arms.
Nothing
unusual.
The only problem was,
her blood was gone.
Gone, Roland. Just like the boy
in the cabin earlier.
And it continues:
1963 - Marung, India.
1995 - Jatuba, Brazil.
Mass graves of people and animals.
Always in remote regions.
1977 - Terrero, Mexico.
22 dead bodies found in the well
of Luis Acosta.
Called El Vampiro,
because he claimed,
to have drunk
the blood of the victims.
Was convicted and murdered in prison
by other inmates.
One of them testified
that he fought back
with superhuman strength.
I could go on like this for quite a while.
- Stanislaw
No need to thank me, because
Always random victims,
no modus operandi.
Most of the dead were
never identified.
Orphans, homeless people
people no one misses.
Just like in Krewlow.
None of it could ever
really be solved.
It was always sects, psychopaths,
serial killers, who knows.
Look here.
Notice anything?
That's Acosta's property.
That's exactly the symbol we're finding
everywhere here in the Oderbruch.
Whatever happened here,
it wasn't the first time.
It's happening worldwide.
For a long time.
Following the same pattern.
Okay. What about this?
Wait. What the survivor
painted weren't symbols.
Not even a symbol.
They were letters, overlapping.
I went to Möbius. Asked him
if Kai is the Little Hunter.
I saw it
in his eyes, Roland.
Kai is alive. Maggie found him.
She bought the blood for him.
For her brother.
Arthur Kring
started the murders.
His son continued.
Möbius is just a scapegoat.
Why are you telling me all this?
Because I can't prove it yet.
And because I know how it sounds.
I wanted to have Kai's grave
exhumed,
but Goldhofer
doesn't take me seriously.
He just wants
a confession from Möbius.
I need Kai.
And Maggie. Maggie knows where he is.
I could make you a collage
about UFOs.
Stanislaw, why do you think
I take you seriously?
I see that.
And because you're still here.
[Sniffling softly]
(Girl speaking Romanian)
(Romanian)
I don't speak Romanian.
(English) You must be a vampire.
You're the first person I see
when I have the early shift,
and the last to leave
when I have the late shift.
And all those vampire books
I'm Valea.
Simon.
Well, Simon, what are you doing here?
I just like vampire stories.
I want to find out
if anyone in my family is
related to one.
My father comes from Transylvania.
I'm creating a kind of family tree.
(German)
What are you still doing here?
You're supposed to be waiting for me outside.
-Sorry, I lost track of time.
This is Valea, she works here.
Nice to meet you.
Valea, this is my
mother.
Bye.
See you tomorrow.
(Typing on phone)
(Wahlton)
What's up?
Stanislaw, I
I don't believe what you believe.
But if it was Kai,
he'd have to go to the trapdoor every time
to dispose of bodies.
Paul probably saw him,
because he has a clear view
from a property,
of the trapdoor.
And you know who else
hung around there.
Wieczorek and Haskel. - I need to
speak to Wieczorek again.
Goldhofer won't let you
go to them again.
Goldhofer has to
follow the rules.
But I don't anymore.
- Roland, what are you planning?
Make sure
I can get to Wieczorek.
I need to bury my father.
Adrian! Sorry I'm late.
Do you have your suit? I'll help you.
Already done.
Papa!
Hey! How are you?
[Kiss]
[Toddler cries]
Hey.
[Whining child]
(Phone vibrates)
Leave us alone.
Excuse me?
Leave us alone.
Officially, I've only authorized you
to speak with him.
What you do in there
is solely your business.
You just need to be
aware of the consequences.
If you lie, we can't
use any of it in court.
And there will be
disciplinary proceedings.
Could cost you your job.
Are you sure?
A bit of an overreaction, don't you think?
Tell me, from here
you can't even see your kitchen.
But
from your kitchen, you can see
the whole field here.
How long have you been cooking there?
A few years?
And in all those years, you haven't seen anything?
Nothing struck you as odd?
We have nothing to do with meth,
haven't seen anything.
You can ask a thousand times.
[Raunt]
My father killed himself.
I heard. I'm sorry.
Thanks.
But I don't think it was suicide.
Why?
I don't know.
It's just not like him.
He wouldn't do something like that.
Would Haskel do something like that?
Why why Haskel?
What about Haskel?
What are you talking about Haskel for?
We found him.
In his cell this morning.
I don't believe it.
Wieczorek, something's going on here.
And I don't know what.
We have to get them,
before they get you.
Mmh?
Man, for that thing in your kitchen,
you'll get six months, a year,
if that.
Think about it.
I I don't believe it.
No?
Good.
No! Voit, Voit. Wait, please!
A guy with a dark green van.
I think it was an old T3,
my grandpa had one like that.
He loaded something in.
Man, we didn't think anything of it. - Okay.
What did the man look like?
I don't know.
It was so dark. So far away.
He was wearing work clothes.
And sometimes we saw
a guy, a young guy, with a small car.
He was unloading something.
But we didn't know what it was. -Sure.
And the night you found the bodies,
did you see anything?
-No! We were really just fishing.
Really.
I'm sorry.
What's going to happen to me now?
Voit man! What's going to happen to me now?
(Door closes)
What the hell is going on here,
damn it?
(Wieczorek calling softly)
(Roland and Goldhofer whispering)
Let me know if you hear from Maggie.
Man, Haskel.
It's okay. Your buddy's not dead.
You don't need to be afraid.
What kind of people are you,
dudes?!
What kind of fucking pigs are you?!
How can you treat people like this?!
(Echoes)
"Nature of all change,
the wolf tears the sheep."
"The drive of the strong
commands existence."
"One's hunger,
the other's eternal sleep."
[Loud, muffled coughing]
(Toilet flushing)
(Silent)
Takes a while to get used
to animal blood again.
Is there anything I can do to help?
Fresh blood.
With a different anticoagulant.
Citric acid works quite well.
What about blood bags
from the hospital?
It's difficult to get a hold of them.
And then it all starts again.
Once you've had human blood
It's hard to get off it.
(Knocking on door)
(Muffled) It's me, Titu.
Please come with me.
Wait. Wait here.
(Door opens)
(Romanian) You stay here.
[Speaking Romanian]
Why are you looking for this man?
I'm not looking for him at all.
I know where he is.
[Translating into Romanian]
But who he is,
I don't know exactly.
[Translating into Romanian]
He's my father.
[Translating]
[Speaking Romanian]
Give her your hand.
I won't say anything about him.
It's better if you don't know who he is.
She doesn't want to say anything about him.
Better not to know.
But maybe she can say his name?
[Translating into Romanian]
Nermin Breban.
He must have had a friend.
A companion.
[Translated into Romanian]
Maybe a Conrady?
[Translated into Romanian]
[Speaks Romanian]
No, Conrady?
Traian Golescu.
And this Traian Golescu, what did he look like?
[Translated into Romanian]
[Speaking Romanian]
You didn't see Trajan Dolescu
up close.
[Speaking Romanian]
Only once. In a photo in the newspaper.
[Speaking Romanian]
"Wehrmacht seeks deserter"
[Speaking Romanian]
When the Wehrmacht came
they were gone quickly.
Because they were supposed to go to war
and didn't want to.
Which newspaper and when?
[Translated into Romanian]
[Speaks Romanian]
Siebenbürgen Zeitung in 1940, uh, 3.
One, nine, four, three.
[Speaks Romanian]
Now he come here.
(Speaks Romanian)
Give her your hand.
(Ominous music)
(Romanian) You must protect her.
Forever.
You must protect her. Go!
You better leave now.
(English) Thank you for helping us
so late, Valea.
No problem.
We're currently archiving all of this.
Decades of unsorted newspapers,
manuscripts,
and all sorts of documents.
You might just find the newspaper
you're looking for here.
I need to show you something.
Can you tell me what she's saying?
(Recording, old woman, Romanian)
She says you have to protect her.
Forever.
I'll start back there.
Why would the woman say something like that?
What does that mean?
I don't know.
May I?
May I borrow this?
Thanks, that's all.
Here.
(English) Good morning.
Morning.
I just called
the Siebenbürgische Zeitung
and asked if they could help us with
this 1943 edition.
Turns out the newspaper
didn't exist until 1950.
It's possible
it was a different newspaper.
I wrote down the three newspapers
that existed in the region
at that time.
Can you call these newspapers
and ask if they can help?
-Sure.
[Sighs]
(Television playing in the next room)
(Anchor speaking Romanian)
Volkswagen T3
(English) Excuse me, what are they saying?
New information about a car.
Someone saw this van
at the crime scene.
(Anchor continues speaking Romanian)
(German) Pack your things.
We have to go. Back to Krewlow.
I'll explain in the car. Come on!
-(English) What What's going on?
(English) Can you keep looking?
Thank you so much for your help!
Thanks.
-I'll call you. (German) Let's go!
(Sound of a bolt being opened)
(English)
I am so terribly sorry.
This should never have happened.
Are you alright?
I'm Milei.
One of the school's sponsors.
Please, come with me.
Please
I can't even begin to say
how sorry I am about all of this.
The director and the entire team
have been fired.
Something like this will never happen again,
I promise you.
The truth is,
if we report them,
the school will be closed.
But this is your home
and the home of all your classmates.
We don't want to send you
back out onto the streets.
To protect the school,
I ask you
to leave the police to us.
We're hiring new staff,
and hopefully soon
everything will be back to normal.
I'm just worried about this letter
from a former student.
Katia Czernik?
Mhm. Yes.
It was Katia who first brought it to our
attention in the first place.
But some of her fears turned out to be untrue
and we dismissed them.
That was a mistake.
She was scared, and we should have
taken her more seriously.
So is Katia okay?
Yes.
She lives in London.
I'm sorry.
(Highway noise)
[Coughing]
(Maggie) What I'm about to tell you
is, um hard to grasp,
so just believe it
and don't ask any questions, okay?
Okay
Kai became a father,
shortly before his death.
And I found his son.
He's sitting outside in the car.
He's not doing well.
I'm taking care of him.
He's a drug addict.
And I don't want my parents
to know anything about himNot yet.
Or Roland either.
Do you think you could look after him?
Just for a few days.
Sure.
No one can see him, really.
-Well, you better get him inside then.
Thanks.
This is Simon.
Hi Simon.
Yeahso
Your room will be upstairs.
I still need to put fresh sheets
on the bed and everything,
but we'll manage.
No matter what happens,
don't let him out.
Okay.
-Have you heard anything from Marek?
Call me if anything happens.
I will.
(Tracking device beeping)
Maggie, time's up. Stanislaw knows everything.
That Kai is still alive and that you found him.
No matter what you do, it's over now. You hear me?
I did what I could to help you.
But I can't anymore, they're onto me!
I'll show you where the olive green van is parked.
Tell me where and I'll pass it on to my colleagues.
Tell them I had a gun on you and you had no choice.
Get out. Or come with me.
(Places gun in glove compartment and closes it)
(Hits dashboard)
(Fire crackling)
The van was parked right here.
Maggie
(Milei) Can I help you?
This is a private school.
Do you have permission
to be here?
Sorry. Hello.
We're looking for an
olive-green van.
Witnesses saw it this morning
in this garage.
As you can see,
the garage isn't in use.
There must be some mistake.
Could I speak with the principal
or the janitor?
The principal isn't here.
We've been missing a janitor for months.
We're looking for a new one,
but it's hard to find
good people.
You run the building alone?
-The students are happy to help. - Aha.
Yes, thank you. Goodbye.
Have a nice day.
That's bullshit.
I've seen him before,
with the press.
I know him too. Shit,
Maggie, I can't do anything here.
I'll pass this on and then
they'll check everything.
They won't find anything.
It's all burned or gone.
Hi.
You're here because something's
not right with the school, is it?
Can I borrow your phone for a second?
I need to check my emails
and show you something.
It might be nothing,
but I found this letter
from a former student.
Katia Czernik.
Just wanted to know
if she's okay.
She writes that many students
have simply disappeared.
Supposedly with a scholarship
to study abroad.
When Katia asked
too many questions,
they locked her up
and threatened her.
Why do you think what Katia
wrote here is true?
They locked me up too.
-Why?
Because I was eavesdropping.
There were meetings, at night.
With strange people.
-What kind of people?
Couldn't really see anyone.
There was one with a black hat.
He had three fingers on one hand.
Katia writes that this man
always picks up our blood donations.
She writes something like that in her letter.
They took blood from you at this school?
All students have to donate blood.
Every month. For hospitals.
-Who owns the school?
That's why I wanted to talk to you.
The man you were asking about
Marek Gorski?
I don't know him.
But in the letter it says,
that Marek Gorski
is responsible for the school.
Katia was afraid of him.
She called him "Krwiopijca"
Blood-sucker.
Katia now lives in London.
Maybe you can find her
and ask her yourself
and then tell me
if she's doing okay?
Thank you.
You shouldn't go back there.
-It's okay. I can handle it.
I know where we can find Marek
and the man with the three fingers.
(Screwing sounds)
(Sound from outside)
(Continues screwing)
I just want to talk.
About Marek Gorski.
[Groans]
Where is he?
I don't know anything about Marek.
(Stutters)
He used to help
with the harvest.
That's all. I
We haven't had anything to do with this in a long time. -Show your hands.
Take them off.
[Breathing shakily]
[Sighs]
Where are your brothers?
Please, my brothers don't know anything about this.
II never told anyone anything.
I never told anyone anything at all.
Like I promised. Not even my family!
Please.
[Sobbing]
What did you promise someone?
Your father
I'm supposed to take it to the grave, otherwise he'll kill my whole family.
But I never told anyone anything. Never.
What are you supposed to take to the grave?
UmWhat you did.
Me?
What did I do?
What did I do?
WhenWhen I pushed Kai into the barbed wire, then
I I never told anyone about it.
What are you talking about?
That you hit me.
With your bare fist.
(Rumbling)
His father won't let me see him anymore.
But they said he's going to make it.
He'll probably never be able to walk again.
Where did you get these?
-From Powder Paul.
-Maybe there's another way to help your brother.
-This is the only way,
to get my father to leave Kai alone.
And what if your father
forces the issue?
Tonight, behind the house.
If everything stays quiet,
I'll flash the light

Then you can come back home
and we'll see each other
tomorrow at school.

- Roland, what are you planning?
Make sure
I can get to Wieczorek.
I need to bury my father.
Adrian! Sorry I'm late.
Do you have your suit? I'll help you.
Already done.
Papa!
Hey! How are you?
[Kiss]
[Toddler cries]
Hey.
[Whining child]
(Phone vibrates)
Leave us alone.
Excuse me?
Leave us alone.
Officially, I've only authorized you
to speak with him.
What you do in there
is solely your business.
You just need to be
aware of the consequences.
If you lie, we can't
use any of it in court.
And there will be
disciplinary proceedings.
Could cost you your job.
Are you sure?
A bit of an overreaction, don't you think?
Tell me, from here
you can't even see your kitchen.
But
from your kitchen, you can see
the whole field here.
How long have you been cooking there?
A few years?
And in all those years, you haven't seen anything?
Nothing struck you as odd?
We have nothing to do with meth,
haven't seen anything.
You can ask a thousand times.
[Raunt]
My father killed himself.
I heard. I'm sorry.
Thanks.
But I don't think it was suicide.
Why?
I don't know.
It's just not like him.
He wouldn't do something like that.
Would Haskel do something like that?
Why why Haskel?
What about Haskel?
What are you talking about Haskel for?
We found him.
In his cell this morning.
I don't believe it.
Wieczorek, something's going on here.
And I don't know what.
We have to get them,
before they get you.
Mmh?
Man, for that thing in your kitchen,
you'll get six months, a year,
if that.
Think about it.
I I don't believe it.
No?
Good.
No! Voit, Voit. Wait, please!
A guy with a dark green van.
I think it was an old T3,
my grandpa had one like that.
He loaded something in.
Man, we didn't think anything of it. - Okay.
What did the man look like?
I don't know.
It was so dark. So far away.
He was wearing work clothes.
And sometimes we saw
a guy, a young guy, with a small car.
He was unloading something.
But we didn't know what it was. -Sure.
And the night you found the bodies,
did you see anything?
-No! We were really just fishing.
Really.
I'm sorry.
What's going to happen to me now?
Voit man! What's going to happen to me now?
(Door closes)
What the hell is going on here,
damn it?
(Wieczorek calling softly)
(Roland and Goldhofer whispering)
Let me know if you hear from Maggie.
Man, Haskel.
It's okay. Your buddy's not dead.
You don't need to be afraid.
What kind of people are you,
dudes?!
What kind of fucking pigs are you?!
How can you treat people like this?!
(Echoes)
"Nature of all change,
the wolf tears the sheep."
"The drive of the strong
commands existence."
"One's hunger,
the other's eternal sleep."
[Loud, muffled coughing]
(Toilet flushing)
(Silent)
Takes a while to get used
to animal blood again.
Is there anything I can do to help?
Fresh blood.
With a different anticoagulant.
Citric acid works quite well.
What about blood bags
from the hospital?
It's difficult to get a hold of them.
And then it all starts again.
Once you've had human blood
It's hard to get off it.
(Knocking on door)
(Muffled) It's me, Titu.
Please come with me.
Wait. Wait here.
(Door opens)
(Romanian) You stay here.
[Speaking Romanian]
Why are you looking for this man?
I'm not looking for him at all.
I know where he is.
[Translating into Romanian]
But who he is,
I don't know exactly.
[Translating into Romanian]
He's my father.
[Translating]
[Speaking Romanian]
Give her your hand.
I won't say anything about him.
It's better if you don't know who he is.
She doesn't want to say anything about him.
Better not to know.
But maybe she can say his name?
[Translating into Romanian]
Nermin Breban.
He must have had a friend.
A companion.
[Translated into Romanian]
Maybe a Conrady?
[Translated into Romanian]
[Speaks Romanian]
No, Conrady?
Traian Golescu.
And this Traian Golescu, what did he look like?
[Translated into Romanian]
[Speaking Romanian]
You didn't see Trajan Dolescu
up close.
[Speaking Romanian]
Only once. In a photo in the newspaper.
[Speaking Romanian]
"Wehrmacht seeks deserter"
[Speaking Romanian]
When the Wehrmacht came
they were gone quickly.
Because they were supposed to go to war
and didn't want to.
Which newspaper and when?
[Translated into Romanian]
[Speaks Romanian]
Siebenbürgen Zeitung in 1940, uh, 3.
One, nine, four, three.
[Speaks Romanian]
Now he come here.
(Speaks Romanian)
Give her your hand.
(Ominous music)
(Romanian) You must protect her.
Forever.
You must protect her. Go!
You better leave now.
(English) Thank you for helping us
so late, Valea.
No problem.
We're currently archiving all of this.
Decades of unsorted newspapers,
manuscripts,
and all sorts of documents.
You might just find the newspaper
you're looking for here.
I need to show you something.
Can you tell me what she's saying?
(Recording, old woman, Romanian)
She says you have to protect her.
Forever.
I'll start back there.
Why would the woman say something like that?
What does that mean?
I don't know.
May I?
May I borrow this?
Thanks, that's all.
Here.
(English) Good morning.
Morning.
I just called
the Siebenbürgische Zeitung
and asked if they could help us with
this 1943 edition.
Turns out the newspaper
didn't exist until 1950.
It's possible
it was a different newspaper.
I wrote down the three newspapers
that existed in the region
at that time.
Can you call these newspapers
and ask if they can help?
-Sure.
[Sighs]
(Television playing in the next room)
(Anchor speaking Romanian)
Volkswagen T3
(English) Excuse me, what are they saying?
New information about a car.
Someone saw this van
at the crime scene.
(Anchor continues speaking Romanian)
(German) Pack your things.
We have to go. Back to Krewlow.
I'll explain in the car. Come on!
-(English) What What's going on?
(English) Can you keep looking?
Thank you so much for your help!
Thanks.
-I'll call you. (German) Let's go!
(Sound of a bolt being opened)
(English)
I am so terribly sorry.
This should never have happened.
Are you alright?
I'm Milei.
One of the school's sponsors.
Please, come with me.
Please
I can't even begin to say
how sorry I am about all of this.
The director and the entire team
have been fired.
Something like this will never happen again,
I promise you.
The truth is,
if we report them,
the school will be closed.
But this is your home
and the home of all your classmates.
We don't want to send you
back out onto the streets.
To protect the school,
I ask you
to leave the police to us.
We're hiring new staff,
and hopefully soon
everything will be back to normal.
I'm just worried about this letter
from a former student.
Katia Czernik?
Mhm. Yes.
It was Katia who first brought it to our
attention in the first place.
But some of her fears turned out to be untrue
and we dismissed them.
That was a mistake.
She was scared, and we should have
taken her more seriously.
So is Katia okay?
Yes.
She lives in London.
I'm sorry.
(Highway noise)
[Coughing]
(Maggie) What I'm about to tell you
is, um hard to grasp,
so just believe it
and don't ask any questions, okay?
Okay
Kai became a father,
shortly before his death.
And I found his son.
He's sitting outside in the car.
He's not doing well.
I'm taking care of him.
He's a drug addict.
And I don't want my parents
to know anything about himNot yet.
Or Roland either.
Do you think you could look after him?
Just for a few days.
Sure.
No one can see him, really.
-Well, you better get him inside then.
Thanks.
This is Simon.
Hi Simon.
Yeahso
Your room will be upstairs.
I still need to put fresh sheets
on the bed and everything,
but we'll manage.
No matter what happens,
don't let him out.
Okay.
-Have you heard anything from Marek?
Call me if anything happens.
I will.
(Tracking device beeping)
Maggie, time's up. Stanislaw knows everything.
That Kai is still alive and that you found him.
No matter what you do, it's over now. You hear me?
I did what I could to help you.
But I can't anymore, they're onto me!
I'll show you where the olive green van is parked.
Tell me where and I'll pass it on to my colleagues.
Tell them I had a gun on you and you had no choice.
Get out. Or come with me.
(Places gun in glove compartment and closes it)
(Hits dashboard)
(Fire crackling)
The van was parked right here.
Maggie
(Milei) Can I help you?
This is a private school.
Do you have permission
to be here?
Sorry. Hello.
We're looking for an
olive-green van.
Witnesses saw it this morning
in this garage.
As you can see,
the garage isn't in use.
There must be some mistake.
Could I speak with the principal
or the janitor?
The principal isn't here.
We've been missing a janitor for months.
We're looking for a new one,
but it's hard to find
good people.
You run the building alone?
-The students are happy to help. - Aha.
Yes, thank you. Goodbye.
Have a nice day.
That's bullshit.
I've seen him before,
with the press.
I know him too. Shit,
Maggie, I can't do anything here.
I'll pass this on and then
they'll check everything.
They won't find anything.
It's all burned or gone.
Hi.
You're here because something's
not right with the school, is it?
Can I borrow your phone for a second?
I need to check my emails
and show you something.
It might be nothing,
but I found this letter
from a former student.
Katia Czernik.
Just wanted to know
if she's okay.
She writes that many students
have simply disappeared.
Supposedly with a scholarship
to study abroad.
When Katia asked
too many questions,
they locked her up
and threatened her.
Why do you think what Katia
wrote here is true?
They locked me up too.
-Why?
Because I was eavesdropping.
There were meetings, at night.
With strange people.
-What kind of people?
Couldn't really see anyone.
There was one with a black hat.
He had three fingers on one hand.
Katia writes that this man
always picks up our blood donations.
She writes something like that in her letter.
They took blood from you at this school?
All students have to donate blood.
Every month. For hospitals.
-Who owns the school?
That's why I wanted to talk to you.
The man you were asking about
Marek Gorski?
I don't know him.
But in the letter it says,
that Marek Gorski
is responsible for the school.
Katia was afraid of him.
She called him "Krwiopijca"
Blood-sucker.
Katia now lives in London.
Maybe you can find her
and ask her yourself
and then tell me
if she's doing okay?
Thank you.
You shouldn't go back there.
-It's okay. I can handle it.
I know where we can find Marek
and the man with the three fingers.
(Screwing sounds)
(Sound from outside)
(Continues screwing)
I just want to talk.
About Marek Gorski.
[Groans]
Where is he?
I don't know anything about Marek.
(Stutters)
He used to help
with the harvest.
That's all. I
We haven't had anything to do with this in a long time. -Show your hands.
Take them off.
[Breathing shakily]
[Sighs]
Where are your brothers?
Please, my brothers don't know anything about this.
II never told anyone anything.
I never told anyone anything at all.
Like I promised. Not even my family!
Please.
[Sobbing]
What did you promise someone?
Your father
I'm supposed to take it to the grave, otherwise he'll kill my whole family.
But I never told anyone anything. Never.
What are you supposed to take to the grave?
UmWhat you did.
Me?
What did I do?
What did I do?
WhenWhen I pushed Kai into the barbed wire, then
I I never told anyone about it.
What are you talking about?
That you hit me.
With your bare fist.
(Rumbling)
