Previously on Pagan Peak...
I'm Yela Antic, Traunstein CID.
What do you want? - I want to look the killers in the eye.
If you look the killer in the eye, he will also look into yours.
This is your first big case, Ms Antic? - Yes.
You're a German police officer now,
but you will always be my daughter.
We all have a choice of who we want to be.
Your colleague back then, the Austrian Inspector Winter, is out of his coma.
I want to get back to work. I have to get back to work.
As far as I know, you have a bullet in your head.
Hello, Mr Winter.
ZILLER VALLEY LEGENDS
Everyone can change if they want.
Everything's on the line. Company, family, all of it.
I recommended her for the job. She was much too young, much too inexperienced.
There's something we can't get out of our heads.
We have nothing to lose, then.
I need to have a look at the Antic case again.
Wolfgang did it. With my late husband's rifle. Help me.
A rifle doesn't just disappear from an evidence room.
There was a signal, but that makes sense.
He's got a bullet in his brain.
Mr Winter, spare my son
and you'll get a new life.
Welcome back to the service, Inspector.
She meant something to you. But I won't give up.
I'll solve this case, whatever it takes. Even if it makes us enemies.
I know.
Hi. - Hi. Empty your pockets, please.
Sure.
Thank you.
Good afternoon, Mr Antic. I'm Ellie Stocker from Traunstein CID.
I wanted to tell you in person
how sorry I am about what happened to your daughter.
Her death hit us all very hard.
I've got a few personal things here that Yela had in her desk.
Photos, a notebook...
Do you really think I care whether you're sorry?
No, I guess not.
But it's important to me that you know that Yela was a very good police officer.
I promise you I'll do everything I can to find her killer and bring him to justice.
Do you know what "Yela" means?
No.
"Welcome."
That was her.
But not me, unfortunately.
Do you know what my daughter called me when I was arrested?
Apas, a dog.
Her own father, because I abandoned her.
But she was right. I did abandon her.
Otherwise, she'd still be alive.
Mr Antic... - A cudo.
Yela was a miracle.
My wife couldn't have children,
yet became pregnant with Yela.
Yela was a special child.
She had the ability to listen.
She was able to unite people,
not divide them or condemn them.
Yela was superior to you
and I know you're responsible for her death.
And now you've got to live with that.
Keep your promise!
6 MONTHS LATER
What is it?
I'm going home.
I've got an early start in the morning.
Why?
I thought maybe you'd like to be alone.
I like it when you stay.
It's not easy to work you out.
Some things take time.
But I am really trying.
Yes, I know.
Ellie?
IT'S GOING AHEAD, SORRY
AT LAST! PLANNING PERMISSION FOR ALPINE CHALETS IN ZILLER VALLEY
LUXURY APARTMENT CHALETS ZILLER VALLEY
There's one other item.
Traunstein CID have requested assistance on a surveillance operation.
They've asked for two officers.
Any volunteers?
Several of you. Good.
Binder and Grohvac, please.
OK. Anything else?
Yes, last night, there was a motorbike accident
on the German side of the pass road.
In the Ziller Valley. The rider was Austrian.
Samir Schuchter, mid 30s.
He died due to his injuries at the scene of the accident.
The Germans are dealing with it because the dead man is on their territory.
We don't have more precise details about the accident.
We assume it was due to excessive speed.
The motorbike crashed into the mountainside and is largely burnt out.
I'm sorry for assigning the two officers without consulting you first.
That's all right.
I told you to take over until I got back.
I need to go. I have things to do.
Do you know when you'll be back?
I can stand in for you a bit longer. Or can I help in any other way?
If I need help, I'll let you know.
GÖSSEN BUILDING PROJECT NEARING COMPLETION
I can't right now. - I just want to introduce you to someone.
Ellie, this is Ms Hofer. - Ms Hofer, Ms Stocker.
Nadine. - Ellie.
Ms Hofer is from the crime prevention unit at the Interior Ministry in Munich.
She'll be here for a while.
OK...
Welcome.
Why have you come here to Berchtesgaden?
Personal reasons.
Amongst other things. I wanted to get out of the office too after all these years.
In that sense, it worked out pretty well.
They say some good comes from everything that happens, right?
You'd certainly hope so.
I look forward to working with you.
I've followed your cases with great interest.
I can imagine the Gössen case wasn't easy for you.
The loss of a young colleague. I don't know how I would've dealt with that.
Yeah...
Sorry, I need to get back.
Maybe we could go for a drink?
OSKAR MARIA KOSCHLICK BOYS SLEEPING
Mr Svoboda. - Ms Stocker, what are you doing here?
I don't mean to ruin your evening. - What's so urgent?
The Gössen family are building luxury chalets in the Ziller Valley.
The environment agency gave its consent under strict conditions.
It's quite legal.
In a conservation area? You don't even believe that.
The Gössens clan buy politicians, circumvent laws and kill.
It isn't right that they can keep on doing whatever they want.
How is Gedeon Winter involved?
Winter has a relationship with the Gössen family.
He smuggled the murder weapon out of the evidence room.
Ms Stocker, we've been through all that.
And as you know, it's not enough.
Unfortunately.
Theresa Gössen paid for Gedeon Winter's surgery.
You've already told me that too. But have you got any proof? No.
Look, Winter is not the man he once was.
People change.
Sometimes even for the better.
He'll never change. You know that.
Don't make life unnecessarily hard.
End your personal crusade against Winter.
Have a nice evening.
Winter is the reason why Yela Antic's killer is still at large.
I will call him to account and bring her killer to justice.
You're not the law.
STATE BORDER GERMANY... AUSTRIA
I've eaten already.
I wasn't sure if you'd show up. I'm afraid I couldn't reach you.
I'm sorry I'm so late.
Doesn't matter.
You could have called me.
It's been a hard day.
Good evening.
No, thanks. Just a gin and tonic.
Of course.
You could have told me about the Gössens.
I didn't want to wake you.
I went back there today for the first time in ages.
This is all madness.
Yes, I thought you wouldn't be able to let this go.
The Gössens carry on...
as if nothing happened, and everyone just looks on.
Maybe you should talk to the prosecutor again?
I already have.
And?
It went quite well. He thinks there could be irregularities too.
But he had no proof. I'd need to give him something concrete.
I wouldn't ask if it wasn't important... - Ellie, please leave me out of it.
One more time.
Please. - I feel uneasy about this.
There you are. - Thank you.
Gedeon must be in touch with Theresa Gössen again.
What makes you think that? - I'm quite sure.
"Quite sure."
I'm supposed to risk my neck for a hunch? Absolutely not.
You have access to his laptop.
If you can find out why, then the two of us could...
Us?
I find that a very odd use of the word "us".
If it benefits you, you say "us".
When it comes to our relationship, not so much.
You knew what you were signing up for. - Yes, I did.
You don't have to tell me that.
But if I can give you some advice, just let it go.
Even if you hunt Gedeon forever, it won't bring Yela Antic back.
I understand you feel betrayed by him, but what does that change?
You don't understand.
How can I? You don't really talk.
And when you do, I can hear you, but most of the time I can't understand you.
You feel guilty. End of.
No one can take that guilt away. Only you can.
You're not to blame for her death.
I know I'm not to blame.
But I have to do something because no one else will.
Just this one more time.
Please.
Why didn't you ever say anything?
That's just the way you are.
Dishonest to the very end.
You didn't even tell me you'd died.
You don't look good, Mr Winter.
We need to find the cause and treat it, rather than the symptoms.
I just want something for the pain.
Maybe the scarring caused swelling of the brain ventricles.
Let's clear it up neurologically with an MRI scan, just to be sure.
No, let's not bother.
I just want something for the headaches.
I need a bit more sleep,
then I'll feel better.
You know you need to report this.
OK, I can't force you.
I'm prescribing something on top of your usual painkillers
that won't irritate your stomach.
Fentanyl patches. Stick one on your chest or your upper arm.
It will help with the pain for about three days.
But I warn you, never more than one patch. It's a strong opioid.
You can't go on like this for ever.
Avoid heat.
You won't believe it.
It's all done.
I've been shopping and I'm already at the hut.
Well, what do you think?
I'd be bored to death.
Of course I've got everything.
You'd better hurry.
Hello, this is Marianne's voicemail.
I can't get to the phone right now. Leave a message.
Marianne?
What does Internal Affairs want from me?
What do you think? - No idea.
OK then, do you want anything to drink before we start?
No.
May I?
Thursday, October 28th, 11:30.
We're commencing the interview with Chief Inspector Stocker.
As a witness, you are obliged to tell the truth,
not falsely report a crime or make false accusations.
You must not accuse relatives, in-laws or romantic partners.
You may remain silent to avoid incriminating yourself. Understood?
I know the procedure and I have understood.
Good. In accordance with paragraph 160 of the Code of Criminal Procedure,
I will now make you aware of the current subject of suspicion.
Do you know a Chief Inspector Gedeon Winter?
