The police show up at the Stjärnberg collective and interrogate Dan. Annie suspects that Dan is lying about Midsummer Night. Birger discovers that Barbro is not telling the truth about her Midsummer Eve either. In Norway, Johan gets to see newspaper articles about the tent murders. 18 years later, Birger contacts ex-police officer Åke, who still has the investigative material from the murder. It turns out that the police may have missed a possible perpetrator.

It is winter and the heavily pregnant Annie decides to leave the Stjärnberg collective together with Mia. In 1991, Birger and Johan visit Dan in Stockholm, who tells them where he was on Midsummer Night 1973, and the shadows of the past can finally be dispelled.
