1
00:00:15,225 --> 00:00:20,391
9 HOURS SINCE MIKKEL'S DISAPPEARANCE

2
00:01:50,683 --> 00:01:52,266
Jonas!

3
00:03:36,891 --> 00:03:38,808
LIES

4
00:03:38,891 --> 00:03:41,016
The victim is male, between 10 and 12.

5
00:03:41,100 --> 00:03:44,391
Time of death... about 16 hours ago.

6
00:03:44,766 --> 00:03:49,141
The burns around the eyes are strange.
Like they're melted.

7
00:03:49,225 --> 00:03:51,391
No signs of sexual abuse,

8
00:03:51,475 --> 00:03:53,350
no sperm, no foreign DNA.

9
00:03:53,433 --> 00:03:56,016
One thing is strange. Take a look.

10
00:03:57,100 --> 00:04:00,391
Apart from the burns,
the ear canals are destroyed.

11
00:04:00,475 --> 00:04:02,600
The inner ear was damaged too.

12
00:04:02,683 --> 00:04:04,475
Both eardrums have burst.

13
00:04:04,975 --> 00:04:06,266
From an extremely loud sound?

14
00:04:06,975 --> 00:04:08,808
Yes... Or pressure,

15
00:04:08,891 --> 00:04:10,391
caused by a nosedive.

16
00:04:10,558 --> 00:04:13,350
Or by intense rotation,
such as in a centrifuge.

17
00:04:13,433 --> 00:04:15,350
Do you know what otoconia are?

18
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:17,516
Tiny grains in the ear canals

19
00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:19,975
that help us differentiate
between up and down.

20
00:04:20,058 --> 00:04:21,350
They can get confused.

21
00:04:21,433 --> 00:04:24,350
When the body rotates, for example.
We lose our balance.

22
00:04:25,016 --> 00:04:28,475
With this boy, none of the grains
are where they should be.

23
00:04:40,641 --> 00:04:41,850
Mikkel!

24
00:04:52,683 --> 00:04:54,016
Mikkel!

25
00:05:36,975 --> 00:05:38,433
Mikkel!

26
00:05:40,225 --> 00:05:41,350
Mikkel!

27
00:06:15,766 --> 00:06:17,016
What were you doing up there?

28
00:06:17,100 --> 00:06:18,683
Ouch! Are you crazy?

29
00:06:20,850 --> 00:06:22,183
What were you doing?

30
00:06:24,391 --> 00:06:26,225
I heard you guys talking at school.

31
00:06:26,308 --> 00:06:27,891
About the caves...

32
00:06:28,225 --> 00:06:29,933
and Erik's drugs...

33
00:06:30,475 --> 00:06:31,975
so I thought...

34
00:06:33,183 --> 00:06:34,975
I don't know what I thought.

35
00:06:43,558 --> 00:06:45,266
I'm sorry about Mikkel.

36
00:07:04,183 --> 00:07:09,183
Monday night in Winden,
another boy vanished without a trace.

37
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:12,183
According to the police, the 11-year-old

38
00:07:12,266 --> 00:07:14,975
was last seen
with his siblings in Winden Forest

39
00:07:15,058 --> 00:07:18,100
near the nuclear power plant
and the Winden Caves.

40
00:07:18,558 --> 00:07:23,100
The police are asking the public for tips
that may help solve the case.

41
00:07:23,183 --> 00:07:28,183
Citizens' groups are also coordinating
searches with local authorities.

42
00:07:28,558 --> 00:07:33,266
For two weeks now, a 15-year-old boy
from the Winden area has been missing.

43
00:07:33,350 --> 00:07:38,975
Police have declined to comment on whether
the two missing persons cases are related.

44
00:07:50,475 --> 00:07:51,683
Hello.

45
00:07:52,266 --> 00:07:53,766
It's Mom.

46
00:07:53,850 --> 00:07:55,933
You're probably out.

47
00:07:57,475 --> 00:07:59,516
About Mikkel...

48
00:07:59,933 --> 00:08:02,350
I really don't know what to say.

49
00:08:03,266 --> 00:08:04,975
Are Martha and Magnus okay?

50
00:08:06,225 --> 00:08:07,558
Should we...

51
00:08:07,641 --> 00:08:09,391
Can we help?

52
00:08:09,975 --> 00:08:12,391
Call me when you hear this.

53
00:08:13,141 --> 00:08:15,100
We're very worried.

54
00:08:15,183 --> 00:08:16,225
Okay.

55
00:08:27,850 --> 00:08:28,891
I...

56
00:08:29,558 --> 00:08:31,141
I couldn't get hold of Ulrich.

57
00:08:32,141 --> 00:08:33,766
Shouldn't we go see the kids?

58
00:08:33,850 --> 00:08:37,516
They've organized various search parties.
I have to go.

59
00:08:41,475 --> 00:08:43,183
Where were you last night?

60
00:08:44,100 --> 00:08:47,183
I woke up around midnight.
You weren't there.

61
00:08:47,266 --> 00:08:48,725
Couldn't sleep.

62
00:08:49,308 --> 00:08:52,725
I went into the garden
to get the bushes ready for winter.

63
00:08:53,016 --> 00:08:54,683
The car wasn't there either.

64
00:08:55,850 --> 00:08:57,641
We were out of cord.

65
00:08:57,725 --> 00:08:59,600
I had to go to the gas station.

66
00:09:02,725 --> 00:09:04,766
First Mads, now Mikkel.

67
00:09:05,308 --> 00:09:07,641
It's exactly like back then.

68
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:22,808
When Dad's brother disappeared,
how old was he?

69
00:09:22,891 --> 00:09:24,141
MOTHER'S DAY 1986

70
00:09:24,266 --> 00:09:25,558
Your father was 15.

71
00:09:27,266 --> 00:09:29,600
Mads was three years younger.

72
00:09:33,766 --> 00:09:35,391
And he was never found?

73
00:09:47,183 --> 00:09:48,933
We talked about Erik.

74
00:09:49,766 --> 00:09:51,266
In the forest.

75
00:09:54,475 --> 00:09:56,808
Mikkel thought that was the worst.

76
00:09:58,058 --> 00:09:59,850
When someone isn't found.

77
00:10:02,933 --> 00:10:04,600
Mikkel's coming back.

78
00:10:06,850 --> 00:10:08,308
Definitely.

79
00:10:32,891 --> 00:10:35,891
Hey, this is Martha.
Leave a message after the beep.

80
00:10:37,433 --> 00:10:38,600
Hey, Martha.

81
00:10:39,433 --> 00:10:40,725
It's me.

82
00:10:41,808 --> 00:10:43,100
I, um...

83
00:10:45,266 --> 00:10:48,141
Just call me back, okay? Bye.

84
00:10:53,350 --> 00:10:55,933
The dead boy is neither Mikkel nor Erik.

85
00:10:56,350 --> 00:10:59,391
This kid is disfigured.
The eyes are completely burnt.

86
00:10:59,850 --> 00:11:02,225
There was red soil all over his clothes.

87
00:11:02,975 --> 00:11:04,516
But none where he was found.

88
00:11:05,391 --> 00:11:09,100
And it looks as if someone
dressed the boy in clothes from the '80s.

89
00:11:10,558 --> 00:11:13,433
The shoes, the Walkman...
From the '80s as well.

90
00:11:14,141 --> 00:11:15,975
We found this around his neck:

91
00:11:16,058 --> 00:11:19,641
a one-pfennig coin from 1986
on a red cord.

92
00:11:22,058 --> 00:11:23,933
The cassette contains this.

93
00:11:26,100 --> 00:11:30,850
We fall through the time stream
Then awaken from a dream

94
00:11:38,225 --> 00:11:41,725
- And Mikkel and Erik?
- Wöller will coordinate the search.

95
00:11:41,808 --> 00:11:44,308
For now we won't make
the discovery of the body public.

96
00:11:44,391 --> 00:11:47,933
We've got two missing kids
and a dead, unidentified boy.

97
00:11:48,266 --> 00:11:50,558
Contact the central office
for missing persons.

98
00:11:50,641 --> 00:11:53,100
Question everyone in the proximity.
Everyone!

99
00:11:53,183 --> 00:11:55,433
In the cave... there's a door!
I found a door.

100
00:11:57,391 --> 00:11:58,391
Can I have a word?

101
00:12:04,266 --> 00:12:07,308
There's a door inside the cave,
leading to the nuclear plant.

102
00:12:07,808 --> 00:12:12,016
We need a search warrant. Maybe Mikkel
accessed the grounds through that door.

103
00:12:12,766 --> 00:12:15,308
That's a high security area.
You can't just enter.

104
00:12:16,100 --> 00:12:18,433
- Maybe he climbed the fence.
- The barbed wire?

105
00:12:18,516 --> 00:12:21,975
We checked the fence.
There was no damage to it.

106
00:12:22,058 --> 00:12:23,578
You're thinking the same thing, right?

107
00:12:24,683 --> 00:12:28,183
That the cases are all connected.
The dead boy, Erik, Mikkel.

108
00:12:29,350 --> 00:12:32,808
Maybe you were right.
It's just like it was back then.

109
00:12:32,891 --> 00:12:36,058
Mads disappeared at the same spot.
Close to the nuclear power plant.

110
00:12:36,141 --> 00:12:38,141
Something is wrong up there...
I just know it.

111
00:12:39,933 --> 00:12:40,933
Okay.

112
00:12:41,391 --> 00:12:43,641
I'll request the search warrant.

113
00:12:58,558 --> 00:13:00,100
The police will be here soon.

114
00:13:01,183 --> 00:13:03,683
We need to get rid of them tonight,
Jürgen.

115
00:13:06,100 --> 00:13:07,100
Tonight.

116
00:13:08,975 --> 00:13:11,141
They'll be snooping all over here.

117
00:13:16,350 --> 00:13:18,891
Maybe someone else should do it.

118
00:13:19,558 --> 00:13:22,766
Because of Erik...
They'll be watching.

119
00:13:24,350 --> 00:13:25,475
Are you blackmailing me?

120
00:13:26,766 --> 00:13:28,266
No, why?

121
00:13:31,058 --> 00:13:34,641
Do you know the difference between
successful and unsuccessful people?

122
00:13:37,183 --> 00:13:38,391
Exactly.

123
00:13:39,766 --> 00:13:41,266
So do it tonight.

124
00:13:42,100 --> 00:13:43,475
And you talk to no one.

125
00:13:43,558 --> 00:13:44,975
Understood?

126
00:13:54,891 --> 00:13:57,808
FOREST HOTEL WINDEN

127
00:14:13,891 --> 00:14:15,600
Can I help you?

128
00:14:16,683 --> 00:14:18,183
I need a room.

129
00:15:26,641 --> 00:15:30,183
Must be horrible for you.
First, the thing with your son Mads...

130
00:15:32,058 --> 00:15:33,766
and now your grandson.

131
00:15:33,975 --> 00:15:35,225
But...

132
00:15:35,308 --> 00:15:37,225
the whole town is mobilizing.

133
00:15:37,308 --> 00:15:38,725
We'll find him.

134
00:15:39,391 --> 00:15:40,600
Maybe.

135
00:15:43,183 --> 00:15:44,683
Maybe not.

136
00:17:29,433 --> 00:17:33,225
A JOURNEY THROUGH TIME

137
00:18:39,183 --> 00:18:40,516
Ulrich, it's me Charlotte.

138
00:18:40,891 --> 00:18:44,475
Aleksander blocked
the search warrant immediately.

139
00:18:44,558 --> 00:18:48,600
But we're talking to the judge now.
Please call me back once you hear this.

140
00:19:58,975 --> 00:20:00,016

WINDEN CAVES

142
00:22:13,058 --> 00:22:18,766
And so, at least hypothetically,
because of these gravitational anomalies,

143
00:22:18,850 --> 00:22:22,600
it is possible to bend time and space.

144
00:22:24,891 --> 00:22:31,475
Will we ever be able to travel through
a black hole to see what lies beyond?

145
00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:37,766
And what price would we pay?

146
00:22:38,850 --> 00:22:41,100
How far would scientists go?

147
00:22:56,600 --> 00:22:58,558
Aleksander, please open the gate.

148
00:22:59,433 --> 00:23:00,683
Let me in.

149
00:23:01,850 --> 00:23:04,725
There's a door in the caves.
Maybe he got through it.

150
00:23:08,016 --> 00:23:11,308
Let me search the slope.
Let me search your section of the caves!

151
00:23:11,725 --> 00:23:13,016
Please.

152
00:23:13,100 --> 00:23:14,891
I can't just let anyone in there.

153
00:23:15,308 --> 00:23:17,141
It's a high security area.

154
00:23:17,225 --> 00:23:19,725
My employees patrol it every day.

155
00:23:20,391 --> 00:23:22,308
If Mikkel were here, we'd know it.

156
00:23:24,558 --> 00:23:25,725
You fucking asshole!

157
00:23:26,808 --> 00:23:29,183
Why are you doing this?
Are you trying to ruin me?

158
00:23:29,266 --> 00:23:31,016
We're talking about my son!

159
00:23:31,100 --> 00:23:33,475
I'm coming back with a search warrant!

160
00:23:33,558 --> 00:23:36,933
And then you'll open this goddamn gate!

161
00:23:37,641 --> 00:23:39,058
You asshole!

162
00:23:39,433 --> 00:23:40,683
Open up!

163
00:23:41,391 --> 00:23:43,016
I'm sorry, Ulrich.

164
00:23:43,100 --> 00:23:45,391
- Honestly.
- Open up, man!

What is this?

170
00:25:14,183 --> 00:25:15,808
Why are you here?

I'm so sorry.

172
00:25:31,183 --> 00:25:32,975

Stop it, please.

174
00:25:45,725 --> 00:25:47,100
Please.

175
00:25:56,850 --> 00:25:58,766
I can't do this, not now.

176
00:26:10,266 --> 00:26:12,058
I'll call you, okay?

177
00:26:41,933 --> 00:26:44,975
WHERE IS THE CROSSING?

00:27:38,308 --> 00:27:41,100
Jankowski! Did you question Obendorf?

183
00:27:41,183 --> 00:27:42,766
Yes. Why?

184
00:27:42,850 --> 00:27:46,891
The files say he was on duty at the plant
when Erik disappeared.

185
00:27:47,350 --> 00:27:50,225
He works in the storerooms
and as a driver sometimes.

186
00:27:50,308 --> 00:27:52,475
- Did you confirm that?
- Of course.

187
00:27:53,100 --> 00:27:55,600
So he has access
to the power plant grounds?

188
00:27:56,058 --> 00:27:59,100
- I think so.
- Was he at the plant last night too?

189
00:28:00,308 --> 00:28:01,850
No idea.

190
00:28:01,933 --> 00:28:03,766
I haven't spoken to him yet.

191
00:31:57,766 --> 00:31:59,266
Drop it.

192
00:31:59,933 --> 00:32:01,975
Drop it, I said!

193
00:32:04,933 --> 00:32:06,016
Ulrich!

194
00:32:15,475 --> 00:32:16,516
What is this?

195
00:32:20,933 --> 00:32:22,475
Is this yours?

196
00:32:26,100 --> 00:32:27,600
We did it together.

197
00:32:29,433 --> 00:32:30,516
Erik and I.

198
00:32:31,558 --> 00:32:33,975
We sold some at the school.

199
00:32:39,683 --> 00:32:41,558
Were you at the plant yesterday?

200
00:32:42,016 --> 00:32:43,766
Yesterday? No, why?

201
00:32:53,641 --> 00:32:54,641
What's this?

202
00:32:54,850 --> 00:32:58,308
When people bring their junk here,
you always find something.

203
00:32:58,975 --> 00:33:01,308
Erik was saving up for a scooter.

204
00:33:07,433 --> 00:33:08,850
Where's my boy?

205
00:33:18,516 --> 00:33:19,766
I don't know, Jürgen.

206
00:34:32,975 --> 00:34:34,433
Do you think they'll find him?

207
00:34:35,641 --> 00:34:36,641
I hope so.

208
00:34:44,558 --> 00:34:45,933
Do you think he had a secret?

209
00:34:48,516 --> 00:34:49,516
Mikkel?

210
00:34:50,433 --> 00:34:51,433
No, Dad.

211
00:34:52,850 --> 00:34:55,808
Do you think
he was keeping something from us?

212
00:34:58,475 --> 00:34:59,683
Why do you say that?

213
00:35:05,266 --> 00:35:06,266
Do you miss him?

214
00:35:10,641 --> 00:35:12,933
I think I miss a notion of him.

215
00:35:15,183 --> 00:35:17,225
I don't know who he really was.

216
00:35:19,766 --> 00:35:21,391
Maybe we never know that.

217
00:35:23,683 --> 00:35:25,516
What a person is really like.

218
00:35:30,141 --> 00:35:31,141
Did you love him?

219
00:36:34,933 --> 00:36:37,475
Whatever happens,
you'll tell me the truth.

220
00:36:40,641 --> 00:36:41,808
Don't lie to me.

221
00:36:43,058 --> 00:36:44,183
Whatever it is.

222
00:38:25,266 --> 00:38:27,183
WHERE IS MIKKEL?

223
00:38:38,225 --> 00:38:41,975
WHEN IS MIKKEL?

224
00:40:35,141 --> 00:40:36,183
Who are you?

225
00:40:37,391 --> 00:40:39,058
Why? Who are you?

226
00:40:39,141 --> 00:40:40,141
Mikkel.

227
00:40:40,933 --> 00:40:42,141
I live here.

228
00:40:42,558 --> 00:40:44,475
Ulrich. And I live here.

229
00:40:46,433 --> 00:40:47,891
You going to grow roots?

230
00:40:48,516 --> 00:40:51,475
- You're at the wrong house, fool.
- Hey, Ulrich!

231
00:40:51,766 --> 00:40:53,183
Come on, we need to go.

232
00:40:53,725 --> 00:40:55,808
Yes, Katharina, I'm coming.

233
00:40:57,350 --> 00:40:59,433
Are you dense? You don't live here.

234
00:41:06,475 --> 00:41:07,475
Who is that?

235
00:41:09,850 --> 00:41:11,766
The Grim Reaper. Can't you tell?

236
00:41:12,350 --> 00:41:13,850
Ouch! Katharina.

237
00:41:24,641 --> 00:41:26,808
CHERNOBYL - HALF A YEAR LATER
