On Midsummer's Eve, 1973, Annie finds two dead people in a tent far up in the mountains by a river in Northern Sweden.

Annie is interviewed by the local police about the tent murders, and, finally, her partner, Dan shows up; together they go to Stjärnberg, where they are welcomed by the commune.

Annie and Mia try to settle at the commune; Annie is still upset by the tent murders and needs to talk about it, but Petrus says that it is none of their concern.

The police show up at the Stjärnberg commune and interview Dan about the tent murders; Annie begins to suspect that Dan is lying about his whereabouts Midsummer's Eve.

Petrus confirms Annie's suspicion that Dan was not at Stjärnberg on Midsummer's Eve; after a controversy with Ylja, Johan is picked up by his mother, but he cannot return to Sweden.

It is now winter at Stjärnberg, and Annie, who is heavily pregnant decides to leave the commune, and she takes Mia with her.
