Overview
Bjørn attends a Jane Doe corpse in the morgue. It’s his estranged daughter, Christina. Bjørn cannot accept Frank’s verdict of suicide. He begins questioning Frank for further details. Over the course of the day, he successively interrogates people in Christina’s life. Nikki describes Christina’s work as a prostitute for a darkweb site, Blacknet. Mia partied with Christina and brought her into a drug dealing lifestyle. Drug lord, Sebastian provides further details of Christina’s lucrative Blacknet operations. CCTV from Sebastian’s nightclub shows she left with Rylander after midnight. Rylander points Bjørn to Holger, who had taken a mentor role with Christina. Holger had encouraged her in Blacknet, but she wanted to discontinue. Bjørn has become convinced that Christina did indeed suicide. He meets ex-wife Susanne to farewell their daughter’s corpse. Susanne reveals she had an affair with Frank, which began the previous Christmas. Bjørn now notices that Christina’s upper lip has a split frenulum. This implies her mouth had been clamped closed by her killer. Susanne alibis Frank for the time of death. Bjørn returns to Frank, accusing him of falsifying the autopsy report by omission. Frank claims their boss, Richard, had ordered him. Richard denies the falsification and provides his alibi during the time of death. Bjørn deduces that Frank also falsified the time of death, to give him Susanne’s alibi. Bjørn stabs Frank to death and is arrested for murder.[3]
Susanne is consulted by John, who wants to stop smoking. Susanne hypnotises John, who reveals he kills women and is due to kill another tonight. John abruptly leaves, while Susanne informs Richard of John’s threat. Richard is unwilling to open an investigation without substantial evidence. Conversely, Richard asks Susanne to have Bjørn certified as insane. Susanne successively interviews people. Charlotte confirms undocumented women have disappeared; she recalls Louise reported a kidnapped woman. Louise hesitantly describes her witness, Sapphire, who worked for Sebastian. Louise advises Susanne to consult Bjørn. On the pretext of psychologically assessing Bjørn, Susanne visits his prison and learns Sebastian/Bjark owns Lady Love. Susanne meets Sapphire, who eventually admits John kidnapped Julia for stealing from Lady Love. Susanne warns Sapphire that she may be John’s next victim. Sapphire runs off, leaving behind her phone. Susanne gets help from CC, who uses Sapphire’s phone to trace her to North Harbour. CC hands over a gun for Susanne. When spotted by police, CC surrenders, but they shoot him. Susanne continues following Sapphire, where she enters a psychologists’ convention. Susanne’s trail leads to Maja, who boards a train. Holding Maja at gunpoint, Susanne learns John has a boat back at North Harbour. Susanne finds Sapphire, but is also captured by John. Susanne had already hidden her gun in Sapphire’s jacket. John takes both women to a derelict building and ties them into chairs. Susanne is able to distract John long enough for Sapphire to get free and drop the gun. Susanne picks it up and shoots John. The women leave.
