·25 min·2 clips

Torbjörn wakes up with no memory of who he is or what happened the night a pensioner couple was murdered.

The episode begins with Thorbjörn waking up disoriented with no memory, setting the stage for a mysterious crime. Host Sigrid Edsenius and former criminal commissioner Bosse Åström introduce the case of Lena and Anders, a retired couple found dead in their Klippan home. Their daughter Petra describes their close-knit family life and their recent activities, including attending a spring festival. The narrative shifts to a wedding party where Thorbjörn, a friend of the groom, becomes intoxicated and is thrown out after urinating in a teenage girl's bed. Petra grows worried when her parents miss a birthday party and goes to check on them. She finds the house unlocked, sees overturned furniture, and discovers her parents' bodies in a bloody scene in the hall. Police secure the crime scene and note signs of forced entry, initially considering robbery. Investigators collect evidence like electronic records, neighbor statements, and the fact that nothing was stolen. Bosse Åström discusses investigative principles, emphasizing evidence over motive. The police canvass the area and eventually knock on Jenny's door, linking Thorbjörn to the timeline. Thorbjörn is arrested and claims no memory, but his clothes from the party are missing, suggesting disposal. DNA and fingerprints tie him to the crime scene, and hair tests show no drugs except prescribed medications. The episode explores the lack of clear motive, with Petra speculating it might have been a confrontation after a break-in. Thorbjörn is sentenced to life imprisonment, and the case concludes with his lawyer indicating an appeal.
