Two years have passed since we last saw Nicky and Alf, which we follow into the third season against the organized hash crime money cycle. PTSD-affected Alf has got a new job in the police's expert group; Task Force Nørrebro, while Nicky has gone from being P's handrail to being in the industry as big smugglers. He also runs a functional laundering machine through a juice bar and dreams of a large house on the Spanish coastline. Alf dreams of his colleague Isa, but life rarely goes as planned. Nicky gets a folder with some information that reveals an unpleasant truth about his son, and Alf must keep secret his relationship with Isa as he is to lead a case of a mysterious find in a basement.

After a violent confrontation at home, Anna asks Nicky for help. She continues to organise Nicky's banking businesses while he tries to re-establish his relationship with Milas. Meanwhile, Nicky meets again with Sahar and is intrigued by her.

Alf starts monitoring Nicky's apartment, but does not find what he was expecting. Frustrated, and struggling with insomnia and PTSD, he makes some quick, and bad, decisions, which will have fatal consequences for innocent people.

Alf and the Nørrebro police try to recover after the shooting. He confronts Nicky, and starts a series of raids against the drug dealers to find evidence against him and Marco. But the Chief Police Inspector has other plans for the investigation. Nicky wants to hand over his business to his partner, Lala, to focus on a normal life with his son, Milas. After an unexpected visit from the auditors, Anna is confronted by her new boss, Nete, but she gets the last word.

The season finale has Alf on a vicious hunt for Nicky before he escapes the country. Nicky must say goodbye to what is most precious to him and Anna receives an offer she cannot refuse. Alf and Nicky both realise that there are tragic consequences to their actions.
