No! Not this place!
Please! Please!
You asshole!
Kron!
I know you're here!
Let go of me, you lapdog!
Come and do it yourself, asshole!
You haven't changed.
In any way.
Nor have you. You may leave.
Where's Asker?
He froze to death under
the Western Bridge last winter.
Some people are lucky.
This is not the first time
I've faced death.
But that you should be the one.
A pathetic moron.
Oh, the irony!
How can you live with yourself?
- Murderer!
- You're one to talk.
- I was just following orders.
- Like a good soldier!
This will take a while.
- Don't worry. I'll help you.
- Hellemyr?
- Why do they want to kill you?
- To clean up.
- What do you mean?
- Our kind have a fatal disease.
They said we may have been infected
during the war.
So they started running tests on us,
like lab rats.
But something must have happened.
They're taking us out one by one.
Gunnar, Josef, Asker and me.
Kron!
Hellemyr is here!
Why me? Huh?
Why?
- I was only two years old!
- You were young, untainted.
- Not like Wennerbom and the others.
- Untainted? You ruined my life!
On the contrary. I saved your life.
But I didn't know at the time,
that you carry the disease.
Where's Wennerbom?
Is he in there?
Get her!
We have to leave.
- We have to get out of here!
- Go on.
The disease is hereditary. You got it
from your father and grandfather.
- It can't be cured, only suppressed.
- With the implant?
Yes, but it suppresses your hidden
abilities as well as the disease.
- But there is another way.
- Which is?
Adrenaline from one's own offspring.
Like a vaccine.
- Burn out your own child?
- Precisely!
- My father's trying to kill me.
- To save himself.
- Who is he?
- I don't know.
- Who?
- I don't know.
- Come on!
- You have the same birthmarks.
A large birthmark somewhere
on your body.
- Now!
- Like this?
That's the disease. Your legacy.
The mark of your father.
Svedberg!
- Huh?
- Anders Svedberg.
- He had one exactly like it.
- Who is he?
He was our lieutenant
in the Battle of the Somme in 1916.
- When we descended into hell.
- I have to find him.
- Come on!
- The Archives at Wittsätra.
All the Hidden are registered there.
You knew we weren't infected.
But you continued to experiment.
Year after year!
You sick bastard!
This will take a while
What the hell is this?
Wait! Eldh, are you okay?
Yeah
Do you know who
Anders Svedberg is?
- We have to get out of here.
- Grab the other side!
Come on!
Can you take her to hospital?
I have to go to Wittsätra Archives.
- Where is it?
- By the elevators. You can't miss it.
It's the only place
with 24-hour security.
Take good care of her.
I'll get someone. Hello?
Hello? I need help!
A woman is hurt!
I don't know who she is,
she was just lying there.
- What happened to her?
- No, I don't know.
She was lying in the street,
so I
Would you say that Abrahamsson
is a good cop?
- No.
- Yet she's rising through the ranks.
Abrahamsson is 39 years old.
She graduated at 25.
She's managed to achieve all this.
Less than two years on each post.
- That must be unusual.
- It is.
I ran a comparison of similar posts
around the country.
The youngest was 51 when he
reached her level. Look at this.
I'll be damned.
That's one hell of a leap.
Yes?
I'm on my way.
That was Tage. He found something.
I'll be right back.
Fine. I'll keep looking.
This is from the night after Valls.
Someone was in there
for three minutes without signing in.
- Does anyone else know about this?
- The guard.
But I requested all the footage.
She doesn't know
what I'm looking for.
Everything is here.
But it's strictly circumstantial.
It proves nothing.
So be careful who you tell.
Of course. Thank you.
I'm coming!
- Is this a good time?
- What the hell are you doing here?
I thought you'd like to see this.
- It'll have to wait until tomorrow.
- You don't have time to wait.
- What am I looking at?
- Obstruction of justice.
You stealing the Valls documents.
You're sabotaging this investigation.
You've completely lost it, Schiller.
I know you're dirty. You've got
five lives on your conscience.
A newborn, three colleagues
and a senior citizen.
Resign tomorrow morning.
- Are you done?
- Tomorrow morning, Susanne.
I think she bought it.
Just calm down. Huh?
No, I know that, but
What photos? Susanne, don't worry.
We'll work it out.
Good. I'll be in touch.
Don't do anything stupid.
- Problem?
- Yes.
Let's talk in the car.
Keep it short.
I have to get to Wittsätra.
I know.
That's why I wanted to meet.
Borg, I don't know
if I can trust you,
but I have no choice.
You can speak freely.
I have no secrets from Göte.
If Ninni gets her way,
and Candlemas is only for some,
it's the beginning of the end for us.
Does she understand that?
Ninni understands most things.
Then talk some sense into her.
She doesn't listen to me anymore.
What makes you think
she'd listen to me?
I've seen how she favors you.
Not just anyone gets to officiate
at a council vote.
Maybe you'll end up
with Lilja's seat.
Without a pedigree? Hardly.
You have a part to play, Borg.
I just don't know what it is.
Ninni has lived through
two world wars.
She's seen what mankind does
to deviant minorities.
An open conflict is
out of the question.
- Then what does she want?
- I don't know. I can only guess.
Let's say the Blendings are
excluded from Candlemas.
They numb the pain with electricity,
but the hunger is too severe.
The moment the first human is taken,
Ninni can label all Blendings
as Outcomers.
From there, it's no big leap
to mass internment and burnouts.
You clearly understand more
than I do.
Talk to her, for all our sakes.
- Do you really think she
- Don't worry. Drive.
Here he is. Ek's new errand boy.
My family has been on the council
since the Communion was founded.
Do you really think our seat is open
for the likes of you?
It requires a vote of censure
and a unanimous decision.
Take these to the Archives
for scanning. Then destroy them.
You may have Ninni fooled,
but the rest of us see you
for what you are:
A well-groomed mutt.
You're nothing!
REBECCA, 25
MISSING WITHOUT A TRACE
Hi! I'm going to the Archives.
I should be on the list.
- You look angry. Are you angry?
- No.
- I'm looking for the Archives.
- I'm here.
- Are you the Archives?
- Yes, of course I am.
- I'm looking for someone.
- Take a seat then.
- I don't have time to play games.
- Sit down!
You're younger than me,
so you go first.
- I'm looking for Anders Svedberg.
- He doesn't exist.
He's my father.
- What's your name?
- Jonas. Hellemyr.
Viveca asked about you.
You didn't exist.
But now you do. Your turn.
My father was a lieutenant
during the war.
There are many wars. Your turn.
He was at the Battle of the Somme.
- There is no Anders Svedberg.
- Who else was at Somme?
Asker, Fensbo, Huzcko, Wennerbom,
Second Lieutenant Kron,
- Lieutenant Borg, Captain Anfell
- What?
- Private Asker, Fensbo, Huzcko
- What did you say after Wennerbom?
- Kron, Lieutenant Borg
- Borg?
- Eldh's boss?
- Lieutenant Jan Elias Borg.
Back to the office?
No, I have one more matter
to attend to.
You look like shit.
Please
Thanks.
Diplomatic plates
Get a picture of the car!
What the hell is she mixed up in?
- Hello.
- Hello.
Come in.
- Is this a bad time?
- No, not at all.
It sounded like you needed help.
Yeah, I know, I'm
Sorry if I sounded a bit upset
on the telephone. It's
It's Schiller. I don't know if
if I can control him any longer.
- You don't have to.
- What do you mean?
How long have we known each other?
I'll take care of it, Susanne.
Follow them.
I'll go talk to Abrahamsson.
Abrahamsson!
Hello?
Susanne?
Susanne?
Susanne?
Schiller here. I have an emergency!
Weak pulse, cloudy eyes.
No, she's not responding.
I don't know. Great, thanks.
Let's try this
Just swallow it.
There
There you are. That's it.
Good.
You're going to be fine.
- What do we do about her?
- Let her do her thing.
- Yeah?
- Tell me you didn't lose him.
No, I'm right outside his door.
He must have drugged Abrahamsson.
She has a pulse,
but she's unresponsive.
And her eyes are cloudy.
I called an ambulance.
- I'll be there as soon as I can.
- See you.
I know who you work for.
I'm going to see Borg.
You can't stop me.
Back off!
- She's patient.
- Good. She'll need to be.
- Why didn't you come yourself?
- Let him go.
- Answer me!
- Let Göte go if you want to talk.
Why send an assassin
if you want to burn me out?
- I don't know
- Cut it out.
I know who you are
My father.
I'm the father of many,
but not of you.
You were at Somme
during World War One.
You were in command.
Who told you that?
Wennerbom. Kron.
The Archives.
- Are they all lying?
- No.
I was at Somme. For two weeks.
Then I was sent home.
I wasn't made for the trenches.
Kron may have been there.
But I wasn't in command.
You are looking for someone else.
You've made a real mess
since you turned up.
Put many lives at risk.
Maybe Eldh was right.
Someone is using you
for other purposes.
I can help you.
On condition that you help me
when the time comes.
Here it is.
Lieutenant Anders Svedberg.
Adrian Savin?
"Death does not surprise
the wise man."
"He is always ready to go."
