Lona calls the State Bureau of Criminal Investigation to confirm that Peters was last investigating price-fixing. But his superior, Ms. Hauberg, brusquely refuses to give her any information.
At the Elling family home, there is a surprise for Susanne at the dinner table.

Peters wakes up from his coma, Elling's mother unexpectedly gets in touch from the nursing home, and while the Elling family is having dinner, a scandal report about mayoral candidate Benedikt is broadcast on television.

Lona receives a message from Jasper's phone with a GPS location. When Lona and Elling go to the corresponding location, they come across another body.

Susanne meets with Benedikt for a frank conversation, and, realizing that their affair is over, returns to Elling with a gift.
