THE MISSING Emergency Centre.
Hello? Hello? Where are you calling from? Hello? So.
Look over at these for a while.
Can you list the objects for me? All of them? Those you can recall.
Sunglasses.
Pen.
There was also an animal.
A cow.
- A cow.
Any more? Nothing? My advice is to go carefully with things.
Like driving.
Until we've heard what's wrong.
I'll give you a new appointment.
Then we'll have some results.
There was also a heart.
- Look at that! We mustn't forget.
- I'll write it down.
Thanks.
- Thanks.
Look who's digging here.
Come, look at this.
Hey, stop.
Stop, don't look anymore! What's that? Go with Anna.
Pardon.
Got a light? Yes.
Thanks.
I thought doctors didn't do that.
- I'm not only a doctor but also a human.
It's okay? Can I have one? - Of course.
Hi, dad.
Secretly smoking? I'll drive.
Here.
What did they say? - Less stress, more exercise, blah, blah.
Can you still drive or What? - Shouldn't I drive? Yes, best not to.
Get in then, and no cigarette.
Hello.
I'm sorry you have to go through this.
Now we'll go back.
They're getting cold.
Kurt? Did they talk to you? - Yes.
Are you okay? Yes, but God almighty This is really something.
Kurt, come look now.
Well, I'll see you.
So.
Now we'll go.
What do you have now? - The head and the left leg.
Looks like there was also an animal.
We'll search further.
And she had this earring.
She's young, seventeen, eighteen.
The foot is small, size 36.
So she's probably quite small.
She died two weeks ago.
Her fillings suggest she came from Eastern Europe.
The hair's dyed.
It's actually dark, you see the dark roots.
The skull's intact.
Presumably she was strangled or bled to death.
And the cuts? - Simple tool.
Whoever did this, was very busy.
Thanks, Karin.
- Yeah, thanks.
We don't have much.
First check the site then search further.
Thank you.
Are there any missing women resembling her? We have to check women from the East.
Foreign workers, prostitutes.
Foreign students? - Yeah well, but this is a prostitute, from the east? - Okay.
Check the students, Linda.
Get started, we'll keep an open mind.
What do you think? A sadist? Or was she dismembered for transportation? As he says in 90% of cases - Who was she? We'll begin there.
I do know that.
Hello.
- Hi.
What is it? I don't know how you can stand the work.
You get used to it.
Do you want to come in? Yes.
Want some tea? No.
Are you there already? Yes.
What have you found? - Most of her now.
She was buried here, half a metre.
Not really deep.
They were in a hurry.
There's a tattoo on the left upper arm, but I must first wash it clean.
Only a part of the lower body is missing.
- But without it we can't determine Whether there was sexual violence.
Okay, good work.
Nyberg? Next time call me first.
- What? Next time call me first.
- Yeah, yeah.
Bunch of whiners.
Right, but say I think we honestly don't No, okay, but thanks for calling.
Thanks.
This one saw a woman with red hair on her porch, a year ago.
Exciting, huh? Looking for someone? - I read in the newspaper about a dismembered corpse.
I don't know if it's really something.
- Then you should talk to him.
He likes to get every tip at reception.
Hello.
- I work at the emergency centre.
I thought, you'd want to hear this.
- Okay, sure.
Thank you.
Emergency centre.
Where are you calling from? This is Romanian.
- I thought so Help me, she says.
Help me.
- Can you speak English? She says: Many much blood.
I'm dying.
- Where are you? How long ago was this? - Two and a half weeks.
Do you know who she is? - More or less.
A Romanian eighteen years old with red hair? There are a lot young Romanians around here.
With red hair? - That too.
We focus more on customers.
No customers, no business.
Are there also violent types among them? I don't know.
It's mostly ordinary men like you.
Hello, will you come with us tonight? - Yes, exactly.
Nice.
It's quiet tonight.
Only the Estonian and Polish girls now.
Let's look at the Mariagata.
It's on the second floor.
They live elsewhere in another house.
According to neighbours, there's a lot of coming and goings.
That's one.
This is as clear as daylight.
We'll go inside.
We'll go inside.
Reinforcements to Mariagata.
Wait, hello.
I want to talk.
Kurt, speaking.
Can you check a license plate? Stay here.
Hold it.
Get off the streets.
Police.
You're under arrest.
You're under arrest.
- What are you doing, Kenneth? Nothing to worry about.
You should stop? Yes, exactly.
- This isn't good.
I know.
Say A well-known customer? - With at least ten convictions.
Can I feel it in my teeth? - Of course.
I didn't pick on you.
I'm looking for a girl.
Quite small, eighteen.
You've met many girls, huh? Many girls, beautiful girls.
Also one from Romania? With red hair, probably dyed.
A tattoo.
- Those from Herrljunga are the best.
Herrljunga? - Yes.
They're incredibly good.
- But girls from Romania? One.
Two.
Three.
Three.
- What do you mean? Do you meet her too? - Three times.
Number three, so three times.
But Twelfth, nineteenth.
Twenty.
He needs be diagnosed.
When I deal with him everything's totally compulsive.
Violent too? Well what do you know about people? Hi.
- Hello.
That license plate belongs to a car of the firm Superstar Models.
And it's registered in the name of Tigran Perski.
He's appeared in previous investigations.
He calls himself a talent scout.
Thanks.
- Okay.
Are you sure? Tigran Perski.
talent scout from Belarus.
He promises them a modeling job.
They're in debt to him.
And pay it off by prostitution.
He just walks away free.
A human trafficker.
- Can't we get anything on him? Nothing.
Account ledgers look good, on the up and up.
He should be investigated.
I'm going after the girl in the studio.
- We have no idea who she is.
When a prostitute is murdered, nine times out of ten the pimp's the culprit.
Or a john.
First we need to know who she is and Tigran Perski's not going to tell us.
And then who, do you think? No, you don't need to be afraid.
I know nothing.
I think you do.
We can help each other, I think.
When I spoke to you yesterday, you called out a lot of numbers.
According to my notes You met a Romanian girl with red hair.
Your shoes.
Very clean in here.
You help me.
- I'll help you.
I'll help you.
- Then you help me.
12th of 9th.
19th, 23rd.
Nadia.
Red hair, pretty small, tattoo.
Did you pay her for sex? - Last year autumn.
Over a year ago.
- Three times.
And where was that? - It was a call out.
I called someone and then she came here.
Last year you saw her last time? - Yes, September 23, 21:30.
That was the last time? - Yes, when she had a black eye.
When I called the next time, he said she no longer worked there.
Who was he? I don't know.
- Perski? Tigran Perski, was that him? Do you have the number? - It is always a different number.
I wanted to talk to Linda.
- Can't it wait until tomorrow? What is it? Did something happen? I found her.
What an incredible idiot.
He's also rated them.
Do you want some? - No, thank you.
No, thank you.
Did he have the phone number? No, it always changes.
Nadia.
Would that be her real name? Martinsson.
Sure, I'll tell her.
Good day.
In the office tomorrow morning at 9:00.
He's also in a good mood.
But she was here, on September 23, because Kenneth was her client then.
And she was abused, badly by Perski.
We don't know.
Yes, he hit her, she had enough and took off.
No money, no passport, because he had seized it.
Where did she go then? Hello.
- Hello.
Kurt Wallander, Ystad police.
I'm looking for Lilian Svensson.
No man can come in here, as you well know.
A year ago you did have a Romanian girl here? Eighteen years, red hair.
She may have come here because she was abused by her pimp or a client.
This is a murder investigation.
Wait a minute.
These are photos on Perski's site.
He takes girls from Romania, Albania, Bulgaria, and so on.
This is interesting.
Can that be our girl, with that tattoo.
Could be.
She's from Moldova, so she speaks Romanian.
I said at 9:00.
- This is Nadia.
At least she was really hot.
She lived in the women's shelter where the photo was taken.
Later she disappeared.
Bosse Herlitz, doctor at the hospital here.
President of the yacht club and member of Doctors Without Borders.
And sometimes works as a volunteer in the women's shelter.
I'll pick up Perski and interrogate him.
- Beautiful.
I'll go look for Herlitz.
- Wait a minute.
He met the victim.
We need to talk to him.
He may know something.
I'll go along.
Do you want a cookie? Bo Herlitz? - Yes.
Linda Wallander, police.
We'd like to ask you a few questions.
Okay.
Two minutes.
Come with me.
It's about your involvement at the women's shelter.
I visit sometimes when I have time.
How much contact do you have with the women? - I'm a doctor, I help with certificates And things that are needed.
- Nothing further? Not really a pleasant occasion? - No.
The crawfish feast? - The crawfish feast? Oh that time.
When Lilian called.
A badly battered Somali had arrived.
She didn't want to go to the hospital because she was an illegal.
So you weren't at the party itself.
- No, I was there as a doctor.
By way of thanks they gave me some crawfish.
Can you remember this girl? No.
No.
- She's a beautiful girl.
Do you remember those often.
- I have over 400 patients.
I don't remember all of them.
- Think again.
As said, I have over 400 patients Her name is Nadia, we think, but that isn't certain.
And she was dismembered and found in a forest.
You probably read about it.
So you don't know who she was? We were hoping you could tell us.
He's lying.
Why do you think so? Something you just know.
Got a moment? Of course.
Bosse called, Herlitz.
He wondered why you barged in And charged him with a sex crime when his colleagues were there.
Well, it didn't happen that way.
- No, but he understood it that way.
In a murder investigation we make no distinction between people.
Now we focus on Tigran Perski.
But suppose there's a link between Herlitz and the girl.
Why would that be? A feeling.
You must've a very good lead before you accuse someone.
Leave him alone.
This is from Interpol.
The circled women meet the description.
Thanks.
Good day.
Damn.
Martinsson? There are similar girls among them But they didn't have time to check the dental records.
I know.
They don't have a good system.
Here: Tatiana Lupu from Tiraspol.
Reported missing six months ago.
This could be Nadia.
Who also came from Tiraspol.
That's what the girl at the shelter thought as well.
I talked to her too and I got a better photo from Interpol.
Is there a number? - Interpol had nothing.
And the local police there? - Don't have time to help.
It's hopeless.
- I'm going.
To Tiraspol? - You can't just go.
And you accepted the division of labour.
Do something, take a decision and don'€™t whine.
Hi Kurt, can we get together this evening? I'm heading to Moldova.
- Moldova? What are you doing now? I have to figure something out.
But we'll meet when I get back.
- Okay, have fun in Moldova.
Good day.
Ladies and gentlemen, in about 15 minutes we dock in Ystad.
Tatiana had a twin sister named Lydia.
She said her sister gave the impression of being happy.
And 100,000 was deposited in her father's account.
Then I wondered why she disappeared if she was so happy.
I'll drive.
I ran into Tigran Perski on the boat.
You take this.
This is quite strange.
I have a copy of all her emails.
- Okay, fine.
Daddy? What is it? Dad.
Are you okay? It looks okay.
- Nice.
It's just a mild concussion.
And here is a wound, but it won't hurt.
But I think I'll get the doctor to have a look at you all the same.
Okay.
Hello? Apologies for last time.
I was walking too fast.
That's okay.
You have to take your work seriously.
Good day.
But I think you're lying.
I think you knew her.
I met her family in Moldova.
She was Tatiana.
But you already knew that - I've no idea what you're talking about.
How did it happen? We drove into the roundabout, he braked suddenly and banged into the steering wheel.
Did he think we drove on the left? And no one asks how Kurt is.
- A mild concussion.
We have new photos from Perski's studio hanging here.
There are some shadowy transactions at his office plus tax evasion.
Good work.
Kurt wanted me to give you this too.
It's from the police in Tiraspol.
Unsolved cases against Perski.
If anyone wanted to testify against him, they disappeared.
Kurt saw him on the boat, with some girls.
- We'll get him.
Tonight we'll be ready I'll take it to the prosecutor.
Did Kurt go home? - I hope so, yes.
Make sure he stays home.
He shouldn't report for duty.
Did something happen? - I had a conversation with Herlitz.
Can you explain to Kurt his carryings on can create major problems for him and us? Yes.
Daddy? Hello.
- Hi.
Shouldn't you be lying down? What? I had to tell Mattson you need to take a few days off.
He didn't want you going there anyway.
What did you do? About Herlitz? Yes, but What are you doing? I'm not doing anything.
We're picking up Perski tonight.
He's the one.
Well I'm not so sure if it's him.
Yes, he was angry when she wanted to quit.
Or a customer killed her and Perski helped to clean up.
No one heard anything after she left the shelter.
That was several months.
No one knows where she stayed.
And I'm going to find out.
- Dad.
Be serious.
- Tatiana knew a man with an earring.
Half of men here wear one.
Herlitz wears an earring.
He's a doctor and could dismember a corpse.
Yes? I'm looking for Johan Hermansson.
Do you have his home number? Thanks.
Where's Jussi? No answer.
Then I'm going to do it.
- Let it go now, Daddy.
Are you on my side or theirs? Jussi? Daddy? Dad, I I was really scared.
When you just When you were suddenly gone Do you remember when you were sixteen And wanted to work in a bar in Stockholm? And I said no.
But you got it in your head and went away anyway.
Then you let months go by without getting in touch.
And then you called crying asking me to come and get you.
When I saw Dorin Lupu and his despair, I thought: That could've been me.
Kurt Wallander.
- Jenny.
I'm looking for Johan.
- He's inside.
Hello? Hello.
- Huh.
How many children do you have? - Just one.
Did you come here before? I wanted to talk to you about those girls.
How much do they earn? Do you want the price list? - I mean on average A couple Estonian girls left after a few weeks of toil with 20, 30 grand.
How can a girl bring back 100,000? That seems a lot.
Do you know him? - I know who he is.
Does he frequent prostitutes? - No, he's not that type.
You think anyone could be the type? But he isn't, I think.
Klara? Hello.
Grandpa.
- Huh.
Did you come to get me today? - Yes, Mom's working.
Are you eating with us too? - Yes, if asked.
Good day Klara, until tomorrow.
Say What are you doing tomorrow night? I don't know.
Shall we meet? Yes, that's good.
Good day.
- Good day.
Glad you could collect Klara off the nursery.
The flight from Milan was delayed.
Red or white? Red.
I heard all about the accident.
That wasn't so bad.
But Linda was so Angry.
- Rather worried.
She cares about you, so she worried it was something serious.
Did it hurt? - No.
Did it bleed? - Ah A very little.
- How little? Such a little bit.
Wait, let me see it.
Such a little bit.
Have you ever tasted blood? - No.
You want to taste blood then? Is blood good? Is it good? I find blood tasty too.
Because I'm a werewolf.
Ready.
Stay here.
Hold it.
Stay here.
Black car driving away.
L-X-F 1 - Let me go.
Hold it.
Say Just calm down.
We are ready.
You can go.
I didn't catch her.
- Okay, let's go.
Grandpa? Are you in love with Bea? Bea? - From the nursery? How did you get that idea? - Are you crazy? She's much younger than Grandpa.
He could be her father.
Hi, sweet.
No, it's fine here.
We're talking about love.
Okay, come home soon.
Kiss.
It's getting late.
She still has a few girls to interrogate.
Have you ever visited whores? No.
Have you then? Yes, once.
But that was long ago.
Grandpa, which one do you want? This one.
Tell her she need not be afraid.
She's safe here.
How long was she at Tigran Perski's all together? She worked a few days for him.
- Does she have an idea where he might be now? She wants to know if she can go.
She doesn't want Tigran to miss her.
He's very generous to his models.
He gives them free room and board.
Says Says he was very generous to her.
Says she and the others can go to the women's shelter.
Tell her she doesn't have to whine like that.
Well, then the next one.
Linda Wallander, police.
These are the girls I called about.
Welcome.
Welcome.
Thanks.
- None needed.
Good day.
Hi.
There's food in the fridge if you want.
Not hungry? Is something wrong? I'm pregnant.
What? When? - In May.
Did I mention I love you? No.
That was your password.
Kurt Wallander? I feel fine, though.
But I think Herlitz is involved nevertheless.
I saw him with Perski there at the industrial estate.
So There's something about those two and we must find out.
Try to catch him.
Good day.
You shouldn't throw it like that.
What should I do? - It should caress the ground.
Caress the ground.
Ball.
Look.
- Okay.
Good luck.
Are you watching? Hi Martinsson, Kurt speaking.
What happened? Has anything happened? - Not in all the hours I've been here.
Okay.
Okay, let's do it now.
Damn hell.
He fucking isn't the one, I think.
- He's a bloody idiot.
Yes, that's true.
But I think he isn't the one.
There's something here.
- What? Some sort of a body.
A search for sperm remains or traces of sexual violence can't be done.
Because she's too far gone.
But she was obviously pregnant.
And The foetus is no longer there.
Cut out.
She bled to death.
Can you Is there a way to determine in what month she was? The pregnancy was probably almost full term.
If the child was cut out, it could still live, but where? We need to pick up Perski before he leaves the country.
Wait, are you sure about Perski? Herlitz may be involved.
- Have you been talking to Kurt again? Hi, me.
- Hi.
That woman from the shelter was at my door.
Where were you last night? Nowhere.
What did you want? She said Bosse Herlitz paid Tatiana's ransom to Tigran.
And another thing.
Tatiana was pregnant.
The child was cut out.
Damn.
Pardon.
What are you doing there? Kurt Wallander, Ystad police.
- You took your time coming here? I called about the girl.
- What girl? That girl with red hair she lived with Ulla Herlitz.
Well, with her son.
He lived here since the divorce.
Ulla is mostly in Spain and Good day, I'd like to talk about Tatiana Lupu.
She apparently lived here over the past year.
I met her at the shelter.
She was always happy and cheerful.
I just wanted to help her.
I noticed she really wanted to change her life.
Did you have sex with her? She could live here.
I brought her here.
And what did you get? - It wasn't like that.
You have paid off her debt to Perski.
Yes, I was stupid.
I fell in love with her.
Was she in love with you? - I don't know.
She liked me, I think.
Because I helped and treated her well; the best she had ever had.
She wanted to marry me.
- And did you think that was going too far? She went back home because she missed her family.
When I got this, I didn't understand.
She said she'd gone back.
Anyone could've written that.
It didn't have to be her.
We found her body cut in pieces.
You could easily have done that.
- I'd never do Stop it.
I help people, I always think of others.
I'm not a bad person.
You think I'm a freak because I Became obsessed with her.
It just happened.
You abused a seventeen year old girl from Moldova, a hooker.
Just acknowledge that.
- If this gets out, it'll ruin my life.
And what about her life? Until a few weeks ago she lived here and then she was murdered.
And she was pregnant.
Was that your child? Someone cut the child out of her womb and then she bled to death.
Was that you? Stop it, now.
You can't be serious? No, I My god.
I would If this gets out, then - Did you have an agreement with Perski? You paid him to keep quiet? - I know it was wrong But I didn't do anything, I didn't kill her.
Then who did? Do you know? I was convinced it was him, but now I don't know.
He met her at the shelter and How does such a person think? He probably never thought and just wanted to Fill the void after the divorce.
- Yes, but Herlitz Is an environmental activist and a doctor.
And then he falls in love with a hooker at the shelter.
But it isn't so strange to frequent whores.
That happens everywhere.
Yes.
But Hermansson, that social worker said he wasn't the type.
What does he mean? Are you coming? - No, I I have an appointment.
Oh.
- I'm going to We're going to the midwife.
You're going to be a grandpa.
- No.
Yes.
- Jesus.
Another one.
- Yes.
My little girl.
Then I'm off.
Okay.
Hello.
- You again? I'm looking for Johan.
- He's not here.
Where is he? - At work.
Why would he be home? Do Bosse and Johan know each other? Know? know not very well.
I need to go shopping.
Bosse, speaking.
- The Evening Post.
We heard you frequent whores What are those insinuations? I won't comment on them.
I can't comment on that.
No.
That stupid Kurt.
- What is it? Where's Kurt? Huh? - And where were you? Why? What was that? Linda.
Hello.
- Hello.
You could help me, you said.
I did it.
- She wanted to go to an abortion clinic.
And then go home.
Now everything's falling apart.
If you say nothing, it will pass.
- Idiot.
They know she was pregnant.
I have to go to the police.
- No, you can't.
I didn't do anything.
You wanted to get rid of the problem.
- I didn't kill anyone.
But I didn't either.
Don't ruin everything.
- It's already ruined No, it's not.
Not for me, not for us.
What the hell are you saying? You're not crazy.
What did you do? Goddamn, you kept the child.
Whose is it? - Stay calm.
You're crazy.
Let me go, crazy.
- Stay calm.
Goddamn Look, the cows.
Hello.
- Hi.
Did something happen? - No.
The policeman Kurt Wallander, came by.
He asked about you.
- Okay.
How are you? - Okay.
Are you okay? - Yes.
He drowned.
But he also has scratches on his face, arms, head.
These could come from the rocks when the body knocked against them.
Suicide? - That can't be ruled out.
He was under quite a lot of pressure.
The newspapers will soon get wind of it.
We must speak to the relatives quickly.
Mattson wants to see you.
- I'm out to lunch.
Very long one, surely? You should see this too.
- Thanks.
Sister: Jenny Hermansson, married to Johan Hermansson.
Damn.
Yes, Kurt speaking.
It's me, dad.
Where are you? Everyone's looking for you.
Heading to Johan Hermansson's.
Hermansson? - Yes.
Johan Hermansson.
Bosse Herlitz has a sister called Jenny Hermansson.
Kurt is driving towards Johan Hermansson's.
From the prostitution hotline? - His wife Jenny is the sister of Herlitz.
What does that mean? - I missed something.
Do you know the way? At the bay the body of councillor and doctor Bosse Herlitz was found.
He served on the board of the Green Party - Johan? I have to change her.
Where are the wipes? Bosse's dead.
He was found in the harbour.
Where were you yesterday? - At work.
I called Simon, you weren't there.
Sweetheart - Where were you yesterday? What the hell did you do? Where are you going? - Open up.
Wait.
Don't ruin it now.
We deserve it.
So you're the sister of Bosse Herlitz? Why didn't you tell me before? - Nothing to say.
What did you do yesterday? Come, Jenny.
- You met Herlitz, we know.
Jenny.
I did nothing.
Come.
Come on.
Wait.
Quickly.
- Where are you going? They went that way.
Come on.
I love you, but can't.
What are you doing? Johan! You stay there.
What now? - We'll wait here.
No closer.
Okay.
If you try to take me, I'll jump.
- I'll stay here.
It's his fault.
If he hadn't gone rooting about, everything would've been okay.
No one wanted her.
Not Bosse, not that whore.
The dickhead works at the shelter.
Then runs after the girls.
Disgusting.
She was pregnant.
Then I had to help him.
And you tried to? - Yes.
So you pushed him off? - We had a fight.
And he fell off? - He threatened to go to the police, the weasel.
I did it for you.
- I know that.
You don't know what a constant battle it is when you can't have children.
It's hell.
I tried everything.
Eventually you can't stand it.
It's like you're not worthy of a child.
We wanted to adopt But I was once convicted for assaulting a dirty pimp.
They didn't find us suitable to take care of a child.
And then Bosse came with his problem.
My perfect brother, so afraid for his godforsaken reputation.
We fought for the child and he thought we could take it.
I thought maybe it had to be that way.
That was my child.
A father who didn't want it, a mother who couldn't care for it.
We offered to help her.
She got good money for it.
- 100,000? Jenny is a midwife, so she could.
But something went wrong.
I tried to help her, but she kept bleeding And the womb The placenta tore.
And then normally you just go quickly to the hospital.
But you didn't do that.
I saved the child.
Why didn't you go to the hospital? - They'd confiscate the baby.
She had just us.
She's not your child.
If you take her away from us, she'll end up in some foster home.
Give her to him.
If you really care about her, give her to us.
She deserves to live.
Please, Johan.
You were right.
I told Mattson you should start working again.
