Quick recap
Lisbeth wakes up in a Gothenburg hospital, two rooms from her father. Niedermann gets away. The Section, a secret arm of the security police that hid Zalachenko for decades, panics: old Gullberg kills Zalachenko, fails to get to Lisbeth and kills himself. The Section bugs Millennium and puts out a hit on Mikael. Mikael plans a counterstrike timed to the trial. In court, lawyer Annika Giannini takes apart psychiatrist Teleborian and plays the recording of Bjurman raping Lisbeth. The charges are dropped. Lisbeth spends months in Gibraltar, inherits part of her father's estate and finds Niedermann in an abandoned factory. She nails his feet to the floor and calls the bikers and the police. Later, she lets Mikael in as a friend.
