So when you have commercial breaks,

you can watch it all here.

That's good.

It looks like ultrasound.

My wife is pregnant.

It looks like this.

Refugees escaped from

the reception center every week.

As police,

there isn't much we can do.

Tell me if they make any trouble.

I will find jobs for them all.

He must have taken the baby

from outside the reception center.

How does it go again?

Hi!

What a lovely little foot.

So pretty.

Let's put on your little socks.

There. So you don't get cold.

Look how pretty you are now.

So pretty.

Come here.

What do you want?

So... We'll let you know.

Thank you.

He gave her the baby.

And then told me where to find it.

- Hi.

- What did they say?

I didn't report it.

She became pregnant with William.

Ruud! I have to borrow your car!

Ruud!

You have to let me borrow your car!

Ruud, Janne is in labor.

Lend me your car!

She needs to get to the hospital!

Ruud!

They drove around for a few days.

The two of them

and the newborn boy.

He checked into various motels.

She was ill,

and was feeling unwell.

On the fourth day,

she managed to escape from him.

Are you all right?

Are you all right?

Later they lost that child.

He could have killed her.

Janne?

- You realize we can't keep her?

- Yes.

- You do realize that?

- I do.

You're telling me you saw him

and some Chinese woman.

I read that in China they leave

the baby girls in the forest.

- Isn't that so?

- We aren't in China now.

Christ!

Look at him.

So the child was placed in the river

near the cabin?

Yes, she was.

And you didn't bring her here

because you don't have a baby seat?

That's right.

- And we know who did it.

- Really?

William's disturbed brother

can do such things.

I saw him down by the riverbank.

I'd like to reconstruct that

before we question you any further.

Do that. For God's sake.

You are aware

that you're not allowed to leave town?

Forget about that policewoman.

She's an idiot.

Do you want to go back to the city?

No.

I lay down on the beach,

waited for the tsunami to return.

But it never came.

I was out shopping.

I saw the wave on my way back.

I stopped my car. Got out.

All I heard was the sound.

When I made it back to where I lived,

everything was gone.

A little girl used to live there.

She wasn't that small.

Ten, maybe.

She used to stand

in front of the mirror.

Making faces, putting on makeup.

She was the first one we found.

Her body was all tangled up

in the branches of a tree.

Her head hung down

like a little... nut.

Later we found her parents.

They were also dead.

Just as well, probably.

The strange thing over there,

was how often I thought of Ruud.
