00:01Aren't you supposed to ask me some questions?
00:04How about how your best friend was shot in front of you?
00:07And you think that it's your fault?
00:10Is this some new kind of therapy?
00:16We are here today to announce a new department
00:20aimed specifically at tackling cold cases.
00:25At the helm of this new department
00:27will be Detective Chief Inspector Karl Mork.
00:33My own department?
00:35Just me.
00:36Do I need a car?
00:37No, we can't just give you a car.
00:39This isn't the prices, right?
00:45I understand you're reopening the Lingard case.
00:49She was the most rueful person I've ever met.
00:52I hope you never find her.
00:57I've seen too many cases like this.
01:00Someone's there one day, gone the next.
01:05Who are you?
01:06I'm your new assistant.
01:08Just some kind of joke, yeah?
01:09Very, um, eager.
01:12She's code for pain in the arse.
01:14Oh, you two should get along wonderfully then.
01:24You want us to investigate us?
01:29We need to give the cage a good rattle.
01:32Ah!
01:33Team Duel Alley.
01:34To what I owe this pain.
01:37Uh, we located the driver.
01:40Where is this driver?
01:42We've been rattling his cage.
01:51I think he feels responsible.
01:53For what?
01:56Everything.
01:58There's a hand grenade about to go off.
02:06Just tell me why you think you're gonna do any better.
02:09Cause I'm doing it.
02:15He's English.
02:17I'm so sorry.
02:18I'm so sorry.
