THE GLASS DOME
They look so sad in the drawing.
- Here. - Thank you.
Who are they?
Mummy, Daddy and me.
Right. You look nice.
This one is nice.
I didn't draw that one.
Okay.
So who drew it?
Ecki.
Why did Ecki draw this?
Did he say?
No.
Which colour will you pick now?
Pink? That's my favourite colour.
Mine too.
And Grandma's.
But not Daddy's.
- His is blue. - I see.
What's Ecki's favourite do you think?
I know. It's red.
How do you know?
Because he's painted on his arm.
Here.
In red.
Like a flower.
Could you look at something?
So many girls have gone missing over the years.
Why did you link these to Ecki? They were never found.
No.
But at the time you were adamant
there had been at least three victims before you,
based on the drawings you found.
They fit.
In age and appearance. They had the same build.
Same long, dark hair.
And you disappeared in the exact same way.
Near your homes. Zero physical evidence.
As if you vanished into thin air.
We weren't picked at random.
He knew who we were.
He knew our routines, what our lives were like.
Let's play with the idea it was Ecki who abducted Alicia.
In that case, he's had a hiatus of over 20 years.
A hiatus is not uncommon.
It's like any addiction.
There are periods of active use and periods of sobriety.
But the addiction is chronic.
What stands out is that he's changed his MO.
It's like he wants to show off this time.
Something must have happened recently.
Something that's thrown everything off, offended him.
- Like what, do you think? - I don't know.
I just know that if I didn't follow instructions or
ignored him in any way…
He hated that.
It was like a personal insult.
How could you tell?
He went crazy.
He banged the glass.
I screamed back. It was like a power struggle between us.
Sometimes I would use that to throw him off balance.
But I knew when to stop, and I never crossed that line.
And then it was important that I surrendered to his power again.
That I…
really showed remorse.
Boosted his ego.
Why have you never talked about this before?
Can I borrow your car?
I returned the rental.
Take Ann-Marie's.
Consider it yours.
WELCOME TO GRANÅS
According to the police, there may be a connection
between the abduction of Alicia
and the sabotage against the Svea Vanadin mine
we have previously reported on.
On March 5th, ten-year-old Alicia disappeared from her home.
The police are treating the disappearance as a crime.
HAVE YOU SEEN ALICIA?
Hi, Tomas.
So how are you?
Well…
Valter has bolted every window in the house shut, so it's…
- Sounds like him. - Yeah.
I'm short on time. What did you want to discuss?
I have…
I've drawn up a profile on Ecki.
Okay.
How academic.
"Lacks in attachment and social interaction."
"Has been subjected to totalitarian power
with elements of sadistic violence."
"Clear preference in the choice of victims."
"Specific fixation/fetish
related to early trauma, experiences or fantasies."
It's based on me and the other girls Valter linked to the case.
Have you gone over Valter's material?
No.
It must be at least ten years since anyone looked at it.
You should.
Alicia fits the profile.
"Fixation/fetish"?
Girls with long, dark hair.
The hair is important.
It was like some sort of ritual for him when he cut mine.
What's behind that?
Maybe someone had a big impact on him.
Someone he sees as unattainable.
Someone he wants to own, dominate…
Perhaps punish.
Is the motive sexual?
No, it's about power.
He enjoys it. And he enjoys controlling this investigation.
- What do you mean? - The clothes.
Sabotaging the mine. The video. That he was in my room.
All of it is communication on his part.
And I think it's meant for you, to obstruct the investigation.
- Like some sort of power trip? - Yeah.
- More coffee? - Yes, please.
- It's really nice. - Thank you.
So you think it's this Ecki
who's behind the murder of Louise and the abduction of Alicia?
What do you think?
That all the crap happening in Granås is a coincidence?
Isla's given us a description.
A tattoo.
A red flower on his forearm.
Does it ring any bells?
Do you recognise this one?
No, it was bigger.
Maybe something like this?
No, it was more red.
Was it a flower you had seen before?
I didn't recognise it.
I'll be right back.
You can keep drawing if you like.
How's it going?
It's a nightmare.
- Aino? - Yes?
I'll come out to you so we can talk.
- Okay. - See you later.
- Hi, Isla. - Hi.
What a nice drawing. Really nice.
- I'm not happy with it. - Why not?
I'm trying to draw like him, but it turns out bad.
No, this is not bad.
Let me see. This is really nice.
But you have to practise, like you do now.
The more you practise, the better you get.
Here you are.
Thank you.
Got a minute to talk?
Right. What is it?
I think there is at least one more victim.
No, I wouldn't miss that.
Yes, because you focus on this.
But this is perfection.
Yeah.
No one manages perfection on their first try.
If there's a failure, we have to find it.
The first victim says most about the perpetrator.
- What's your point? - We have to go much further back.
We need all investigations of murder and abduction of girls in Scandinavia
from 1980 to 1995.
- Can you get that? - I…
Good.
We've found a link between the attack on the mine and Alicia's disappearance.
We also have a description,
and evidence in Lejla's room has been sent to the lab.
So if he has a record, we will find him.
And if he doesn't?
- This is a good thing. - That's what you said about the video.
It didn't lead anywhere.
What about the guy Louise was seeing?
Well, we… We're looking into that too, of course,
but Louise's mobile is missing and there's nothing in the phone records.
Where is her cell?
I don't know, it…
The last time it was on was in your house.
If I hadn't gone to Stockholm, none of this would've happened.
It's all my fault.
You can't think like that.
Hey… Louise's cellphone records…
I'll go through them again.
- Why? - In case you've missed something.
Like what?
There must be something leading to her fling on the side.
It'd be damn weird if it doesn't.
Don't you think?
Knowing who he is should be of interest to the investigation.
Sure, but there are other lines of enquiry.
I find it strange he hasn't come forward.
Don't you?
It makes you think he's hiding something.
Mummy's sweetheart.
It's cold. Why don't you come inside?
PHOTO 2 CONTAINER BY THE DOCK
PHOTO 3 GIRL'S FACE UNCOVERED
Valter.
Look at this.
Long, dark hair.
Disappeared without a trace.
Yes, same age.
Inas Jović.
The execution is entirely different.
That's the point. It didn't go the way he wanted.
- What do you mean? He killed her. - Yes, but he didn't enjoy it.
- Well… - She became too real to him.
Too human.
He had to cover her face with a plastic bag.
That's why he cut my hair.
That's why he kept us trapped like bugs in a glass jar.
- Okay. - He dehumanised us.
To be able to kill us.
- I understand. I will look into it. - Thank you.
- Bye. - I'll email my summary.
Please do. Bye.
Dear God. Lejla…
I'll eat on the way. I'm picking up some groceries for Aino.
Hey!
Great work.
Thanks.
Let me know where you are.
Girl in the box!
How are you doing?
- I'm good. You? - Fine.
But Adde isn't so damn good.
He's in custody.
While murderers and paedos run free.
Hope you're happy.
Fucking snitch.
- Are you done? - Hi. Hello there.
Everything all right?
Fuck yeah. Of course.
Hi. Jim.
Martin.
So, what is Martin doing in Granås?
Helping out with the search.
Fuck me! Are you kidding?
That's amazing. You're doing an awesome job.
People come from all over the country, fixing things for us.
- What can you say but thanks? - Well…
We're doing our bit.
You can't ask for more than that. Right?
See you.
- Who the fuck was that? - Jim.
We grew up together.
Never mind him.
How's it going?
I heard you're out searching again.
Nothing new yet, I'm afraid.
But we're out again, finally. That's…
I'm in charge of refreshments today.
How are you?
I don't know, to be honest.
- I haven't ventured there. - Right.
If you want…
If you want to talk sometime, we could go grab a coffee.
I don't drink coffee.
We could go for a beer.
In that place everyone goes to.
I don't drink beer either.
But I'd love to grab a glass of water or something.
Then it's on me.
- Half past six tonight? - Sure.
- I might have a beer, if that's okay. - Sure.
- Nice. Okay, that's great. Bye. - Bye.
And he pointed like this and looked me dead in the eye.
Imagine!
He should be locked up before he hurts someone.
Isla, can you please stop jumping on the couch?
Wasn't he normal before?
Didn't he go out with Louise?
No, they were never an item.
You were seeing Adde.
In ninth grade!
He was so in love with you. He told me. Everyone was.
Everyone found you so intriguing. You were so special.
That's not how I remember it.
Isla?
Did you hurt yourself?
What did you do? Huh?
I opened the window so Ecki could come in and draw with me.
What the fuck are you saying? Ecki?!
You can't open the window!
- Look at me! Was he here? - Let go!
Look at me!
Did you see him?
No, I said, look at me!
Why did you open the window?
- Have you seen anything unusual? - No, nothing.
- Nothing? - No.
- Have you seen anything? - No, me neither.
Well, it's hard to ascertain from her account if he really was here.
The kid's got a wild imagination.
Well, we'll still increase our presence here.
Go in and talk to Aino. She seems shaken.
Sure.
Hey.
- I don't think he's after Isla. - No?
She doesn't fit the profile, and he won't take anyone when he has Alicia.
We don't even know if she's alive.
She's alive.
Great, then we can relax and put our feet up.
Did you look into the girl in the container? Inas Jović.
- She fits the profile. - Came to Sweden '92.
Went missing from a refugee centre outside Sundsvall six months later.
I've talked to every fucker who worked or lived there. Found her parents.
There is no new information that isn't in the file.
I can keep digging.
Hey!
Give me access to the archives!
So I can help!
Hello?
Let me out!
Hello!
We need to get through.
- It's cordoned off. - We'll sneak past.
- I was counting them and she was missing. - Has she disappeared before?
Excuse me, what's going on?
A little girl
from my grandchild's class
came here for a swimming lesson.
Now she's missing.
Elma!
You'll have to wait here.
- Is it Elma who's missing? - Yes, unfortunately, we think it's her.
Is it him? Is he the one who took her?
VALTER 8 MISSED CALLS
WATER WITH MARTIN TODAY 6:30 PM
- Hi, Björn. - Hey.
Has Lejla been here?
No, why… No.
I saw her by the cordon, but that was a while ago.
- Is Tomas here? - He's in a meeting with forensics.
Damn. Another girl's gone missing now.
Yes, I know.
You'll have to wait here.
- Take a seat. A cup of coffee? - Please.
- Hi, Antonsson. - Hi there!
- Hello, Peter. - Hi, Valter.
Could I have a look at that?
- Sure. - Thanks.
HAVE YOU SEEN ELMA?
- You have seven new messages. - Seven missed calls.
- Received today at 3:04 p.m. - Oops.
This is Jakobs-Jan. Is it okay for livestock to drink the water?
For fuck's sake!
Someone better call me back.
Received today 4:05 p.m
Received today 4:30 p.m.
She's with Ecki.
Elma, say something.
Mummy, Daddy, I want to go home.
What's that noise in the background?
Is it the mine?
Or a wind turbine?
Mummy, Daddy, I want to go home.
It sounds like water, right?
Yes. Rewind, so I can listen again.
- A dam. - Yes, that's it.
- It sounds like a dam. - Yeah.
- Mummy, Daddy… - When did the girl go missing?
Around 4:00 p.m.
Right…
Check every water treatment plant within a 50 km radius.
- Okay. - I mean now!
- Of course. - I'm calling Tomas.
- You coming? - Sure.
Peter? Call!
I was sure he wouldn't take anyone else while he has Alicia.
And now there's one more victim, vanished without a trace.
So what does this mean? That she's…
Hi.
One more beer?
- No, I'm good. Thanks anyway. - Just give me a shout.
What?
Stop it.
Didn't you notice?
She'd just be disappointed if she got to know me.
Why?
Because I'm a fucking oddball
who travels around the country looking for people who've gone missing.
Plus, I'm almost 40 and still studying.
I'm not exactly a catch.
Why do you do it?
I'm taking a remote course at Linneaeus University.
Look for missing people.
My… sister disappeared when we were young.
She was only seven.
I was ten. We lived in a small village.
I walked her to and from school every day and…
One day… my friends had built a new skateboard ramp.
And I wanted to tag along…
She knew the way. I knew she'd find her way home.
But…
that was the last time anyone saw her.
I'm sorry that happened to you.
It was the guilt that
triggered something in me. I became manic.
How could someone do that to another person?
What was your conclusion?
Some kind of resignation.
There's evil in this world you can't be protected from.
This thing that I'm doing…
I guess I'm thinking that if I only once could help someone
come home again, it would fill a void inside of me.
Hi.
I think I've found something.
Check this out.
A car was captured by the security cameras at Hälledammen at 4:30 p.m.
The same time we received the message.
Can you see the number plate at any point?
No, unfortunately not. But…
That's a Peugeot 205.
And that particular one is a Roland Garros edition. A rarity.
I have a thing for cars.
I looked into it, and there's only one in the entire county.
It's registered to a Vanja Frick, 84.
- Eighty-four? - Yes.
She has dementia and moved to a care home six months ago. But…
She's registered to an address in Mora.
A flat where an internet contract has been active the last two weeks.
Here is the address.
Bergsätravägen 3A in Mora.
Listen up! We have an address in Mora.
There's a high chance both girls are there.
We leave in five. You'll be briefed in the cars.
Jorun, you hold the fort here.
Come on!
That was nice.
Yes, it was.
So where is the cabin you're renting?
It's up near Åsarna.
- Right. - A lovely 18th-century wooden cabin.
Right by the river. It's beautiful.
Want to see it? Or do you have to get back?
Oops.
There.
Watch your step.
It's beautiful.
Isn't it?
I could easily live here.
We have beans, tuna.
We have…
instant coffee on offer.
No, wait. How about some warm soup?
Sounds nice.
Let's see. It's over here…
There. No, wait.
We can also offer a shot.
If you want.
What the hell.
Give me a shot. A small one.
Okay.
- There. Say when. - A tiny one.
Less!
- Less. Like this. - I want a bit more.
- Right. Cheers. - Cheers.
Cosy.
Hey, when…
When you were locked up…
What did you do? How did you pass the time?
I'm sorry. Maybe you don't… You don't…
- Let's talk about something else. Sorry. - No, it's fine.
- Are you sure? - Mm.
He would give me small tasks.
He could tell me to read to him, from a book.
He always gave me something.
Chewing gum, sweeties, crayons.
I guess it was some kind of barter.
So he gave you like, small rewards?
- Yes, I did something and… - Yeah.
Isn't that what he's doing now?
How do you mean?
I'm thinking about what you told me about the clothes, the video, and the drawings.
Maybe it's for you.
You mean that he wants me to do something for him now?
I have no fucking clue.
I just… It was just a thought.
Pour me another one.
- Sure? - Yes! Pour me another one.
Okay.
Thank you.
So fucking gross.
Is it possible it's not him?
But someone else who wants to be like him?
A copycat?
I've read a bit about it and…
You know more than me, but don't they want to imitate
but also put their own stamp on it, somehow?
Yes, but mainly they're suckers for attention.
If you can't kidnap or murder someone with your own plan,
don't fucking do it.
Right…
Sorry. I've got a dark sense of humour.
Oops.
I really need to get this.
Answer, it's okay.
I'm going to… Stay here.
- Sure? - Yeah.
I'll be quick.
- Yes? - Where are you?
At Martin's.
From the search party.
He's renting a place by Åsarna.
Did you hear another girl's gone missing?
Yes, I heard.
- They have an address. - What?
Are they sure?
Seems like it.
They are on their way to Mora, some flat there.
I'm still at the station, so you know.
- Okay. Call me when you know more. - Sure.
- Bye. - Bye.
Did something happen?
They know who it is.
Police! Show yourself!
Police!
- Clear! - Clear!
Clear!
LEJLA HOMEWORK
"I'll KILL HIM"
YOU ARE PRECIOUS
Tomas!
Here.
Listen. The lady who owns the flat, Vanja Frick…
Her brother's grandson was sentenced to forensic psychiatric care three years ago
following a failed kidnapping attempt of an 11-year-old girl.
What the hell?
He was granted leave four weeks ago,
but has not been in touch with his support person,
so Säter Hospital reported it.
What's his name?
Daniel Frick.
This is him.
39 years old.
Unlawful imprisonment, assault of a girl…
I've had a really nice time, but…
- I have to go now. - Okay.
- I have to be with Valter. - Yes, of course.
Did he say anything else?
No, just that they were going to…
Falun.
Can I have a glass of water?
Thank you.
Why Falun?
No, it was Mora. It was Mora.
Right.
I've had it since I was born.
Are you disgusted now?
It looks like a flower.
Yes, I guess it does.
