Quicksand (2019) s01e04 Episode Script
The Reconstruction
I am very displeased with the amount of time this has taken.
We weren't allowed in while school was still in session.
You made my client sit in custody with full restrictions for seven months.
The preliminary investigation will be over soon.
Try to remember where Amanda was when you and Sebastian entered the classroom.
We're doing the crime scene reconstruction over the holidays.
You're welcome to come with us.
[Peder.]
I'd like to talk about this with my client in private first, please.
What would that mean? We'll repeat the whole course of events on site.
In the school? Yes, but you don't have to participate.
I would advise you not to go.
Some people find they can remember better when they're there.
[Maja.]
I clearly remember walking down the hallway.
After that, I remember nothing.
No, I don't want to.
[sighs.]
[Jeanette.]
Look at the floor plan and put an X where you think Amanda was standing.
[multiple gunshots.]
[Peder clears his throat.]
I didn't know they were going to bring up the reconstruction, but I'm glad you said no.
You said I shouldn't.
Yes, because you've been subjected to enough psychological stress.
And besides, we'll be done soon.
What's the longest sentence I could face? The prosecutor will ask for 14 years.
But if I take part in the reconstruction, it might help me remember the details.
Jeanette is constantly asking what happened, but my mind is blank.
I keep trying to remember, but it doesn't help.
Everything went so fast.
I didn't grasp what was going on.
Maja, you shouldn't subject yourself to a reconstruction, not this late in the preliminary investigation.
You have no way of knowing what you might say.
You don't know how you're going to react, or how it will affect you.
There's even the risk that it could exacerbate your, and our, situation.
And we don't want to help the prosecutor.
Can we agree on that? Good.
All that's left for me now is to wish you a merry Christmas.
- Merry Christmas.
- Thank you.
Bye.
[man.]
Amanda.
Michael, where did you go? There you are.
And then we have Samir.
Good job.
Morgan Sebastian, where is he? Anyone know? He's sick, isn't he? - Sebastian is sick.
- Huh? Right.
Of course.
Okay.
Here you go, young man.
And last but not least, Maja.
Okay.
Well done.
Don't get too comfortable.
See you again in a week.
You don't get more points by staring at it.
Hi.
- What did you get? - You first.
- I asked first.
- You have to answer first.
She got one wrong, okay? What did you get? I missed half a point.
- No, no, wait.
Half a point off? - Yeah? No! What now? Your future is ruined.
Have you talked to Christer? You should see if you can get hold of Sibbe's test.
- You're going there now, right? - [Maja.]
Mm.
Yeah.
It's like the first test he's taken all semester.
It's really crucial he gets it.
Who knows, he might have passed it.
And if he did, it's really - Really crucial that he gets it.
I know.
- Okay? Good - Kisses, see you later.
- Bye.
Christer? Listen, Sebastian's test, could I have it? I'm heading to his place.
- I think it's best that I give it to him.
- But I'm going to his place right now.
How's it going? - Is everything okay? - Mm.
Just fine.
Absolutely.
How come? Maja you're good at taking responsibility.
But not everything is your responsibility.
I'm in a bit of a hurry.
Thank you.
Come on.
[bottles clinking.]
Here's the test from Christer.
So, are you coming along? - Where to? - To South Africa.
- Isn't it a little late for - Fuck no.
The plane is leaving in a few hours.
Well, I can't go.
It's Lina's birthday.
We're celebrating at my grandfather's.
- Fucking shit! - What is it? I need ice.
It has to be crushed.
- Yeah, but couldn't you - Otherwise it tastes like fucking shit.
- And your parents, still going to London? - What? Well, didn't you say so? For fall break? No, just for the weekend.
We're going to my grandfather's on Monday.
So, you can come with me to South Africa.
We'll stay until Monday.
Then I'll come back with you.
Your grandpa likes me.
I'm sure your dad would be really glad.
Besides, your brother is going Hey, what are you doing?! Put the lid on.
- I'm just saying your bro - [loud blending.]
- But, Sebastian, I'm just trying - [loud blending.]
Maja.
- What's Doris in here for? - Who? - The one in the yard.
- Her name isn't Doris.
I figured as much.
But I have to call her something.
I can't talk about the other inmates with you.
But if I guess it, you'll tell me if I'm right? [chuckles.]
She's too old to have had a postpartum psychosis and murdered her newborn baby.
What are you talking about? She probably worked at a brothel with eastern European girls, selling 12-year-olds to revolting pedophiles Hey.
That's enough.
What did you call her again? Doris? [Maja.]
Mm-hmm.
How would you like it if I talked about you like that to her? She doesn't have to guess what I did.
Everyone knows already.
- Are those Christmas presents? - From your mom.
This is from me.
It's not Christmas Eve.
It's my last shift before Christmas.
When are you coming back? After New Year's.
Hey It's going to be all right.
Okay? Here.
There's a Roma woman who sells these at my subway stop.
Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas.
[Lina.]
But I want to stay with you.
Now, now, you're coming home again in two days.
That's not long at all.
And you know what's happening then? No.
It's your birthday! Oh, right! The taxi is here.
Are you coming? Only if Maja comes along.
One day, when you're as old as Maja, you won't feel like going to London with your parents either.
Come on now.
So, goodbye! And, Maja, no parties while we're gone, okay? No, I promise.
We have to hurry.
Daddy is already sitting in the car.
He's going to be afraid that we'll be late for our flight.
Come on.
[door opens and closes.]
[doorbell ringing.]
Hi.
Come in.
Thanks.
Um, I'll be right back.
I just need to put something on.
[laughs.]
[Samir sniveling.]
- At least pretend you enjoy being here.
- Stop it, I feel great.
It's just It's a physical reaction.
Your eyes tear up when you chop onions.
Aha, if you say so.
You try it! You got the easy job of chopping the chilis.
Okay, how many Scovilles? In the chili? - In the chili.
- [both laughing.]
How many Scovilles in I have no idea.
What do you think? The highest found in nature is two million.
I hope they aren't that hot, because I'd never survive that.
Then try this.
So, how many Scovilles? Like two, maybe.
Up there, really.
No, it wasn't that - [cell phone ringing.]
- But it will be good.
Um Hey, I'm just going to take this.
But you can start frying the onions.
I'll be right back.
[incoming message tone.]
[romantic ambient music.]
Are you okay? I'm glad that you're here.
You can stay over if you want.
[cell phone vibrating.]
[cell phone vibrating.]
My parents won't be home until tomorrow.
This is not going to work.
But it's over.
Yeah? Does he know that? Well I'm going to tell him tomorrow, when he comes home.
But wait! Samir.
[car door opens.]
Uh, hi Hey.
How can you do this to Sebastian? It's nothing, okay? It's just It's just what? Just don't say anything to Sebastian.
What the fuck are you doing? How long has this been going on? What the hell is wrong with you? - But you know how Sebastian is.
- If Sibbe has a problem, you help him.
- Do you think I haven't tried? - By fucking Samir? - [scoffs.]
- You're just taking advantage of Sibbe.
Back off.
You're not the one to talk about taking advantage of Sebastian.
You specialize in that.
You're just like all the others.
Why don't you just shove off? - [car door closes.]
- [engine starts.]
[ringing tone on phone.]
[Sebastian.]
Hello? Hey.
Um Hey.
Why aren't you using FaceTime? There's something I need to tell you.
- Hang on, I'll switch to FaceTime.
- No, please don't do that, I'm Hey! Hey.
Um - Listen, we have to talk.
- That's what you said.
Why are you looking so serious? What's wrong? I can't be with you anymore.
Okay.
- Anything else? - No.
Well, I have to go now.
See you.
- See you - [disconnected tone.]
[sighs.]
[ringing tone on phone.]
[alarm buzzing loudly.]
[cell door opens outside.]
[rushing footsteps and indistinct speech.]
[alarm continues to buzz loudly.]
Hello, what's happening? - [cell door closes outside.]
- [alarm stops.]
- Where is Doris? - Who? The one that goes out after me.
Aha She's not here.
Was she released? Not exactly.
I don't understand.
Has she been transferred somewhere else? Is she dead? What is it? I want to make a phone call.
[Peder.]
Hi, Maja.
Merry Christmas, by the way.
- Hello? Maja, are you there? - Mm.
Listen, I've been thinking.
Uh-huh, I'm listening.
This reconstruction If I go along, will you be there too? Yes, of course.
Naturally I'll be there.
But I must warn you, participating in the reconstruction could hurt our defense.
- It could mess things up.
- It's already messy.
It won't get less messy with me locked up in here.
Mm.
Why do you want to subject yourself to this? I just want to understand what happened.
For my own sake.
Hi.
Um, I'm Maja.
I'm in Samir's class.
Is he home? Come on in.
[in Arabic.]
Samir! Someone's here to see you.
- [in Swedish.]
Come on in.
- Mm.
Samir? - [in Arabic.]
Where is he? - [woman.]
Why? - [man.]
Someone's here to see him.
- [woman.]
Who? Probably someone from his class.
You go talk with her.
- [in Swedish.]
Hi! - Hi! - Would you like something to drink? - No, thanks.
- There's tea, water, soda - Thank you, I'm fine.
What are you doing here? I have something to talk to Samir about.
Okay.
Samir! Samir.
- What are you doing here? - Hey - Don't be so unpleasant, she just - All right, shut up.
What is she going to think about us here in the slums if you - Shut your face! Come on.
- Hey! I was just kidding.
What's your problem? [in Arabic.]
 Samir? You're sure you don't want anything? [Samir in Swedish.]
No, we're going out for a minute.
Are you coming, Maja? - You can't just show up like this, Maja.
- I tried to call, but you didn't answer.
So you just hop on the subway and come over? Yes.
You don't belong here.
But I broke up with Sebastian.
Hello! Yeah, but when he comes home? - What will happen then? - I told you already, it's over.
But we are nothing, Maja.
Wasn't that the way you put it? - I didn't mean it that way.
- No? How did you mean it, then? Well I think you should go home.
Come on, I'll walk with you.
[train announcement.]
Watch out for the doors.
Doors closing.
- Hi, Maja.
- Hey.
[ominous music.]
Maja.
I've asked Per to film the reconstruction, so we have our own documentation.
That means there will be three cameras on site.
I'm not sure this will be easy for you.
Remember, it's okay to ask for a break.
It's also okay to call it off entirely if you want.
Do you understand? - Hi.
- Hi.
- Hi.
- Hi.
[Lena.]
Hi, Maja.
The custodian is turning on the power.
The lights will be on soon.
Just a minute.
- There.
- [Jeanette.]
Ah, yes.
Well So, here we are.
We are at Djursholm Public High School to carry out a reconstruction of the crime scene in case number K482620-2018.
Now, you will be leading us through this, and showing and telling what happened, step by step, from when you and Sebastian came into the school, until the police arrived on the scene.
I'd like to introduce you to Andreas, who is standing in for Sebastian.
So Let's begin with you coming in.
- Yeah.
We came in from here.
- Through the main entrance? Anything else we need to know about that? Do you have anything with you? We have two bags.
Two bags.
Okay.
Do we have those bags? Thanks.
Also, don't hesitate to speak up if anything feels wrong in any way.
Hm, Sebastian was on the other side of me.
Then we walked towards the lockers.
Sebastian was in front.
[Andreas.]
Okay [man.]
Hey, Sebastian.
- Hey, Sebastian.
- Hey.
YOU SICK FUCK! - Open the locker.
- [Jeanette.]
Who opens the locker? [Maja.]
I do.
[Jeanette.]
Do we have a key? FUCKING BITCH! And now? Which bag do you put in the locker? Which of you is carrying the bag with the explosives? I don't understand how she could choose a bag with specific contents.
- She didn't know.
- Put the bag in there.
Who is carrying the bag that you put in the locker? I am carrying it.
Um, and I put it there, in the locker.
- [Jeanette.]
And then? - Um, then we walk towards the classroom.
Sebastian is in front.
Hey, Maja.
[Jeanette.]
And what happens when you arrive at the classroom? Um, the door was open.
[Jeanette.]
There.
Who goes in first? Um, Sebastian.
- [Jeanette.]
What happens next? - Maja, close the door, please.
Um I close the door.
[Jeanette.]
Go ahead.
[breathing heavily.]
[Jeanette.]
Sebastian goes in first, then you follow him.
Where do you end up? Uh here.
Right here.
[Jeanette.]
And then? He pulls a weapon out of the bag and starts shooting.
[Andreas.]
Um, do I put the bag down? [sighs anxiously.]
[Jeanette.]
Maja, does he put the bag down or not? I can't see it, but I think so.
- [Andreas.]
On the floor or on the desk? - Um, the desk.
[Jeanette.]
And what happens next? Um, Dennis is sitting there.
And Sebastian starts shooting.
[Jeanette.]
He shoots Dennis? Maja Whom does he shoot first? I I'm not sure.
[Jeanette.]
Where is he aiming his weapon? Uh He - [gun clicks.]
- [Jeanette.]
Maja? - What next? - He runs out of bullets.
- [Jeanette.]
What does he do then? - He puts a new clip in.
Where is the spare clip? On him or in the bag? Where? I don't recall.
Do you remember him digging around? Did it take a long time? No.
[tearfully.]
Everything happened so quickly.
It just happened.
[Jeanette.]
Is this when you pick up the weapon? Maja, we know you pick up the weapon and start shooting.
Is this when you do that? I pick up I pick up the weapon and start shoot I see the weapon.
I take the weapon.
And shoot.
I shoot.
- [Jeanette.]
Tell us what happens now.
- No.
- [gunshot.]
- No, no.
No.
No.
No.
[drops length of wood.]
[Jeanette.]
Maja, tell us what happened.
What happens now? What happens now? You have to tell us what happened.
[Peder.]
We have to take a break.
She can't answer all your questions, can't you see? [Jeanette.]
She could use a little air.
We'll all take a short break.
[whispers.]
I shot them.
I shot them.
Maja.
They're concluding the preliminary investigation based on the hearings.
So, you don't need to do any more here.
It's all over.
They're going to leave you alone now.
There'll be no further questions, and no more hearings.
Fourteen years.
Um All right I understand that that this probably didn't turn out as you had expected, but you just have to let it go.
We have to look ahead.
The next step will be the trial.
MERRY CHRISTMAS LINA - MAJA [adults chanting.]
Hooray, hooray, hooray, hooray! [cheering.]
Nice.
I thought, now that you're turning seven, um, maybe you'd like a beer with your cake? - Nope! - No? She doesn't want a beer.
Well, what do you want then? Presents! - Why is that? - 'Cause it's my birthday.
Oh, my dear Lord! I almost forgot, it really is your birthday! - I'd better go get them.
- No, Dad.
Sit.
- We'll take care of it.
- We'll do it.
How are things with Sebastian? - Just fine.
- He couldn't come? No, he's in South Africa with his family.
In South Africa? Well, I say Maybe he would come for Christmas? No, I think he's going to Verbier then.
- To Verbier? - [Camilla.]
Here come the presents! - Happy birthday, sweetheart! - Wow! Look, look, look.
Wow! - So There you go.
- [cell phone ringing.]
[Erik.]
One at a time.
[Grandpa.]
What is that round thing? Could it be a wheel of cheese? [Grandpa and Camilla laugh.]
- Oh, how pretty.
- [Erik.]
Pretty, right? [Lina.]
Yeah! Hey.
[Samir.]
I'm sorry.
I'm glad it's over between you and Sebastian.
Yeah, me too.
Oh, and one more thing.
I'd really like to see you when you come back from the country.
Mm.
We'll be home on Sunday.
Okay, well, I'd love to do something on Sunday.
But fairly late Sunday evening.
Oh, but then on Monday, maybe? Mm.
Monday.
Monday is a long time from now.
I don't know.
Maybe I'll have to call and say hi tomorrow, too.
If you must, you must.
But I'm not sure I'll be able to answer.
I might be very busy.
Oh, of course.
You'll be chopping wood and stuff like that.
[giggles.]
Yeah.
Well, I might try calling anyway.
You do that.
Well, okay.
I'll talk to you later.
- Mm.
Sounds good.
- Yeah.
Bye.
- See you.
- Bye.
[static crackle.]
If I walk over here, am I warmer or colder? Still getting colder? What about now? Um, now you're cold.
Am I really still cold? [both laughing.]
[Lina.]
Stop it! [Maja.]
Come here, you little stinker! [both laughing.]
Mwah! - Come on! - Oh, oh! - Am I all leafy? - Yes, you are.
Next time you go to London, I'll come along with you, okay? Will Sebastian come too? No, he won't be coming.
I'm not going to see him anymore.
I have so much more fun with you.
[both laughing.]
- [Camilla.]
Maja? - Yes? [Camilla.]
Maja, come here.
- What is it? - Come.
Just tell me what it is.
- I'll tell you later.
Come.
- Mom, just tell me.
- It's Sebastian.
- What about him? - He's in the hospital.
Come.
- What? - In South Africa? - No, he's at Danderyd.
What? What's happened? Mom, what's happened? Tell me! [whispering inaudibly.]
[panicked breathing.]
- Maja Norberg.
- Hello.
Right this way.
Maja? [sniffs.]
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
We weren't allowed in while school was still in session.
You made my client sit in custody with full restrictions for seven months.
The preliminary investigation will be over soon.
Try to remember where Amanda was when you and Sebastian entered the classroom.
We're doing the crime scene reconstruction over the holidays.
You're welcome to come with us.
[Peder.]
I'd like to talk about this with my client in private first, please.
What would that mean? We'll repeat the whole course of events on site.

I would advise you not to go.
Some people find they can remember better when they're there.
[Maja.]
I clearly remember walking down the hallway.
After that, I remember nothing.
No, I don't want to.
[sighs.]
[Jeanette.]
Look at the floor plan and put an X where you think Amanda was standing.
[multiple gunshots.]
[Peder clears his throat.]
I didn't know they were going to bring up the reconstruction, but I'm glad you said no.
You said I shouldn't.
Yes, because you've been subjected to enough psychological stress.
And besides, we'll be done soon.
What's the longest sentence I could face? The prosecutor will ask for 14 years.
But if I take part in the reconstruction, it might help me remember the details.
Jeanette is constantly asking what happened, but my mind is blank.
I keep trying to remember, but it doesn't help.

Maja, you shouldn't subject yourself to a reconstruction, not this late in the preliminary investigation.
You have no way of knowing what you might say.
You don't know how you're going to react, or how it will affect you.
There's even the risk that it could exacerbate your, and our, situation.
And we don't want to help the prosecutor.
Can we agree on that? Good.
All that's left for me now is to wish you a merry Christmas.
- Merry Christmas.
- Thank you.
Bye.
[man.]
Amanda.
Michael, where did you go? There you are.
And then we have Samir.
Good job.
Morgan Sebastian, where is he? Anyone know? He's sick, isn't he? - Sebastian is sick.
- Huh? Right.
Of course.
Okay.
Here you go, young man.
And last but not least, Maja.
Okay.
Well done.
Don't get too comfortable.
See you again in a week.
You don't get more points by staring at it.
Hi.
- What did you get? - You first.
- I asked first.
- You have to answer first.
She got one wrong, okay? What did you get? I missed half a point.
- No, no, wait.
Half a point off? - Yeah? No! What now? Your future is ruined.
Have you talked to Christer? You should see if you can get hold of Sibbe's test.
- You're going there now, right? - [Maja.]
Mm.
Yeah.
It's like the first test he's taken all semester.
It's really crucial he gets it.
Who knows, he might have passed it.
And if he did, it's really - Really crucial that he gets it.
I know.
- Okay? Good - Kisses, see you later.
- Bye.
Christer? Listen, Sebastian's test, could I have it? I'm heading to his place.
- I think it's best that I give it to him.
- But I'm going to his place right now.
How's it going? - Is everything okay? - Mm.
Just fine.
Absolutely.
How come? Maja you're good at taking responsibility.
But not everything is your responsibility.
I'm in a bit of a hurry.
Thank you.
Come on.
[bottles clinking.]
Here's the test from Christer.
So, are you coming along? - Where to? - To South Africa.
- Isn't it a little late for - Fuck no.
The plane is leaving in a few hours.

Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas.
[Lina.]
But I want to stay with you.
Now, now, you're coming home again in two days.
That's not long at all.
And you know what's happening then? No.
It's your birthday! Oh, right! The taxi is here.
Are you coming? Only if Maja comes along.
One day, when you're as old as Maja, you won't feel like going to London with your parents either.
Come on now.
So, goodbye! And, Maja, no parties while we're gone, okay? No, I promise.
We have to hurry.
Daddy is already sitting in the car.
He's going to be afraid that we'll be late for our flight.
Come on.

[doorbell ringing.]
Hi.
Come in.

Um, I'll be right back.
I just need to put something on.

But you can start frying the onions.
I'll be right back.
[incoming message tone.]
[romantic ambient music.]
Are you okay? I'm glad that you're here.
You can stay over if you want.
[cell phone vibrating.]
[cell phone vibrating.]
My parents won't be home until tomorrow.
This is not going to work.
But it's over.
Yeah? Does he know that? Well I'm going to tell him tomorrow, when he comes home.
But wait! Samir.
[car door opens.]
Uh, hi Hey.
How can you do this to Sebastian? It's nothing, okay? It's just It's just what? Just don't say anything to Sebastian.
What the fuck are you doing? How long has this been going on? What the hell is wrong with you? - But you know how Sebastian is.
- If Sibbe has a problem, you help him.
- Do you think I haven't tried? - By fucking Samir? - [scoffs.]
- You're just taking advantage of Sibbe.
Back off.
You're not the one to talk about taking advantage of Sebastian.
You specialize in that.
You're just like all the others.
Why don't you just shove off? - [car door closes.]

[Sebastian.]
Hello? Hey.
Um Hey.
Why aren't you using FaceTime? There's something I need to tell you.
- Hang on, I'll switch to FaceTime.
- No, please don't do that, I'm Hey! Hey.
Um - Listen, we have to talk.
- That's what you said.
Why are you looking so serious? What's wrong? I can't be with you anymore.
Okay.
- Anything else? - No.
Well, I have to go now.
See you.
- See you - [disconnected tone.]
[sighs.]
[ringing tone on phone.]
[alarm buzzing loudly.]
[cell door opens outside.]
[rushing footsteps and indistinct speech.]
[alarm continues to buzz loudly.]
Hello, what's happening? - [cell door closes outside.]
- [alarm stops.]
- Where is Doris? - Who? The one that goes out after me.
Aha She's not here.
Was she released? Not exactly.
I don't understand.
Has she been transferred somewhere else? Is she dead? What is it? I want to make a phone call.
[Peder.]
Hi, Maja.
Merry Christmas, by the way.
- Hello? Maja, are you there? - Mm.
Listen, I've been thinking.
Uh-huh, I'm listening.
This reconstruction If I go along, will you be there too? Yes, of course.
Naturally I'll be there.
But I must warn you, participating in the reconstruction could hurt our defense.
- It could mess things up.
- It's already messy.
It won't get less messy with me locked up in here.
Mm.
Why do you want to subject yourself to this? I just want to understand what happened.
For my own sake.
Hi.
Um, I'm Maja.
I'm in Samir's class.
Is he home? Come on in.
[in Arabic.]
Samir! Someone's here to see you.
- [in Swedish.]
Come on in.
- Mm.
Samir? - [in Arabic.]
Where is he? - [woman.]
Why? - [man.]
Someone's here to see him.
- [woman.]
Who? Probably someone from his class.
You go talk with her.
- [in Swedish.]
Hi! - Hi! - Would you like something to drink? - No, thanks.
- There's tea, water, soda - Thank you, I'm fine.
What are you doing here? I have something to talk to Samir about.
Okay.
Samir! Samir.
- What are you doing here? - Hey - Don't be so unpleasant, she just - All right, shut up.
What is she going to think about us here in the slums if you - Shut your face! Come on.
- Hey! I was just kidding.
What's your problem? [in Arabic.]
 Samir? You're sure you don't want anything? [Samir in Swedish.]
No, we're going out for a minute.
Are you coming, Maja? - You can't just show up like this, Maja.
- I tried to call, but you didn't answer.
So you just hop on the subway and come over? Yes.
You don't belong here.
But I broke up with Sebastian.
Hello! Yeah, but when he comes home? - What will happen then? - I told you already, it's over.
But we are nothing, Maja.
Wasn't that the way you put it? - I didn't mean it that way.
- No? How did you mean it, then? Well I think you should go home.
Come on, I'll walk with you.
[train announcement.]
Watch out for the doors.
Doors closing.
- Hi, Maja.
- Hey.
[ominous music.]
Maja.
I've asked Per to film the reconstruction, so we have our own documentation.
That means there will be three cameras on site.
I'm not sure this will be easy for you.
Remember, it's okay to ask for a break.
It's also okay to call it off entirely if you want.
Do you understand? - Hi.
- Hi.
- Hi.
- Hi.
[Lena.]
Hi, Maja.
The custodian is turning on the power.
The lights will be on soon.
Just a minute.
- There.
- [Jeanette.]
Ah, yes.
Well So, here we are.
We are at Djursholm Public High School to carry out a reconstruction of the crime scene in case number K482620-2018.
Now, you will be leading us through this, and showing and telling what happened, step by step, from when you and Sebastian came into the school, until the police arrived on the scene.
I'd like to introduce you to Andreas, who is standing in for Sebastian.
So Let's begin with you coming in.
- Yeah.
We came in from here.
- Through the main entrance? Anything else we need to know about that? Do you have anything with you? We have two bags.
Two bags.
Okay.
Do we have those bags? Thanks.
Also, don't hesitate to speak up if anything feels wrong in any way.
Hm, Sebastian was on the other side of me.
Then we walked towards the lockers.
Sebastian was in front.
[Andreas.]
Okay [man.]
Hey, Sebastian.
- Hey, Sebastian.
- Hey.
YOU SICK FUCK! - Open the locker.
- [Jeanette.]
Who opens the locker? [Maja.]
I do.
[Jeanette.]
Do we have a key? FUCKING BITCH! And now? Which bag do you put in the locker? Which of you is carrying the bag with the explosives? I don't understand how she could choose a bag with specific contents.
- She didn't know.
- Put the bag in there.
Who is carrying the bag that you put in the locker? I am carrying it.
Um, and I put it there, in the locker.
- [Jeanette.]
And then? - Um, then we walk towards the classroom.
Sebastian is in front.
Hey, Maja.
[Jeanette.]
And what happens when you arrive at the classroom? Um, the door was open.
[Jeanette.]
There.
Who goes in first? Um, Sebastian.
- [Jeanette.]
What happens next? - Maja, close the door, please.
Um I close the door.
[Jeanette.]
Go ahead.
[breathing heavily.]
[Jeanette.]
Sebastian goes in first, then you follow him.
Where do you end up? Uh here.
Right here.
[Jeanette.]
And then? He pulls a weapon out of the bag and starts shooting.
[Andreas.]
Um, do I put the bag down? [sighs anxiously.]
[Jeanette.]
Maja, does he put the bag down or not? I can't see it, but I think so.
- [Andreas.]
On the floor or on the desk? - Um, the desk.
[Jeanette.]
And what happens next? Um, Dennis is sitting there.
And Sebastian starts shooting.
[Jeanette.]
He shoots Dennis? Maja Whom does he shoot first? I I'm not sure.
[Jeanette.]
Where is he aiming his weapon? Uh He - [gun clicks.]
- [Jeanette.]
Maja? - What next? - He runs out of bullets.
- [Jeanette.]
What does he do then? - He puts a new clip in.
Where is the spare clip? On him or in the bag? Where? I don't recall.
Do you remember him digging around? Did it take a long time? No.
[tearfully.]
Everything happened so quickly.
It just happened.
[Jeanette.]
Is this when you pick up the weapon? Maja, we know you pick up the weapon and start shooting.
Is this when you do that? I pick up I pick up the weapon and start shoot I see the weapon.
I take the weapon.
And shoot.
I shoot.
- [Jeanette.]
Tell us what happens now.
- No.
- [gunshot.]
- No, no.
No.
No.
No.
[drops length of wood.]
[Jeanette.]
Maja, tell us what happened.
What happens now? What happens now? You have to tell us what happened.
[Peder.]
We have to take a break.
She can't answer all your questions, can't you see? [Jeanette.]
She could use a little air.
We'll all take a short break.
[whispers.]
I shot them.
I shot them.
Maja.
They're concluding the preliminary investigation based on the hearings.
So, you don't need to do any more here.
It's all over.
They're going to leave you alone now.
There'll be no further questions, and no more hearings.
Fourteen years.
Um All right I understand that that this probably didn't turn out as you had expected, but you just have to let it go.
We have to look ahead.
The next step will be the trial.
MERRY CHRISTMAS LINA - MAJA [adults chanting.]
Hooray, hooray, hooray, hooray! [cheering.]
Nice.
I thought, now that you're turning seven, um, maybe you'd like a beer with your cake? - Nope! - No? She doesn't want a beer.
Well, what do you want then? Presents! - Why is that? - 'Cause it's my birthday.
Oh, my dear Lord! I almost forgot, it really is your birthday! - I'd better go get them.
- No, Dad.
Sit.
- We'll take care of it.
- We'll do it.
How are things with Sebastian? - Just fine.
- He couldn't come? No, he's in South Africa with his family.
In South Africa? Well, I say Maybe he would come for Christmas? No, I think he's going to Verbier then.
- To Verbier? - [Camilla.]
Here come the presents! - Happy birthday, sweetheart! - Wow! Look, look, look.
Wow! - So There you go.

[Erik.]
One at a time.
[Grandpa.]

- Oh, how pretty.
- [Erik.]
Pretty, right? [Lina.]
Yeah! Hey.
[Samir.]
I'm sorry.
I'm glad it's over between you and Sebastian.
Yeah, me too.
Oh, and one more thing.
I'd really like to see you when you come back from the country.
Mm.
We'll be home on Sunday.
Okay, well, I'd love to do something on Sunday.
But fairly late Sunday evening.
Oh, but then on Monday, maybe? Mm.
Monday.
Monday is a long time from now.
I don't know.
Maybe I'll have to call and say hi tomorrow, too.
If you must, you must.
But I'm not sure I'll be able to answer.
I might be very busy.
Oh, of course.
You'll be chopping wood and stuff like that.
[giggles.]
Yeah.
Well, I might try calling anyway.
You do that.
Well, okay.
I'll talk to you later.
- Mm.
Sounds good.
- Yeah.
Bye.
- See you.
- Bye.
[static crackle.]
If I walk over here, am I warmer or colder? Still getting colder? What about now? Um, now you're cold.
Am I really still cold? [both laughing.]
[Lina.]
Stop it! [Maja.]
Come here, you little stinker! [both laughing.]
Mwah! - Come on! - Oh, oh! - Am I all leafy? - Yes, you are.
Next time you go to London, I'll come along with you, okay? Will Sebastian come too? No, he won't be coming.
I'm not going to see him anymore.
I have so much more fun with you.
[both laughing.]
- [Camilla.]
Maja? - Yes? [Camilla.]
Maja, come here.
- What is it? - Come.
Just tell me what it is.
