AANDAHL Yeah. And that's very surprising. Everyone with his diagnosis has died within three days. INGVILD We'll have to go to Black Level in Bergen. Around-the-clock curfew. ARIEL The Institute of Public Health says that he Yersinia bacterium mutates constantly. Two, three times a day. They've never seen a bacterium behave this way. ESTHER What's happening in Bergen now... We weren't infected by refugees, but by ourselves. Stefan Keyn got sick from his own vaccine. And now the people behind this have had me arrested and taken the evidence. AANDAHL Charlie? Charlie, can you hear me? Come on! Charlie Oldman, can you hear me? Hey! I need assistance, room ! Defibrillator and a respirator! RADIO VOICE There were new cases registered in Bergen today. That's more than yesterday and more than the same day last week. That's a clear upward trend with a reproduction number of . . JUDGE The prosecutor has asked to speak first. HELENE SOMMER The prosecution waives the charge against Esther Winter for complicity to murder. JUDGE Well, I must say the police didn't waste any time. Has the case been solved already? HELENE SOMMER No, Your Honour, but in light of the Emergency Powers Act Winter is regarded a vital societal resource to combat the Black Death. However, should any evidence against her emerge during the investigation, which connects her to the murder of Lars Irgens, the police will request that she is put in custody again. Thank you. That is all. JUDGE Thank you. HELENE SOMMER You will only be moving within the red zone. Your home. Your work. The hospitals. If you venture outside that, your ankle monitor will begin to beep loudly. Then you'll have one minute to return to the red zone before the police are alerted. Understood? ESTHER Yes. HELENE SOMMER Sign here to confirm that you consent to and understand the use of the monitor. Thank you. ESTHER Johannes...! Johannes? JOHANNES You got us thrown in prison! ESTHER No. ESTHER No, Johannes... LEO My love, my love, my love. Let's just let him process it. ESTHER That's why I need to talk to him. LEO Hey, hey, hey... He needs time. ESTHER How are you doing? LEO They told me we'd be kicked out of Norway. And you'd be sent to jail for a very long time. ESTHER No, they can't do that. We still have laws in this country. LEO No, it was a lawyer who told me this. They showed me pictures of you taken when Anette gave you my fucking vaccine pass. So maybe you want to tell me now what the fuck is happening to Norway. ESTHER I don't know. LEO I'm sorry, babe. I know it's not your fault, but... I think I'm just as scared as Johannes now. AANDAHL How are you feeling? CHARLIE My throat hurts, but I'm not sick anymore. AANDAHL Good. CHARLIE I need to see my daughter. AANDAHL I don't think that's a good idea right now. CHARLIE Why? AANDAHL Don't you remember what happened? CHARLIE No. AANDAHL You tried to kill yourself. CHARLIE No. No, I didn't. MAJOR Esther Winter has signed a non-disclosure agreement. She starts work tomorrow at AM sharp. She'll obviously be under surveillance / . If she keeps babbling about us concealing the truth about the contagion's origin... ...her credibility is virtually zero after her attempt to escape. Charlie Oldman got infected, but he is alive. He's in the military hospital, and he knows for a fact that Uma Scholldid not get ill, so... Yeah, he could become a problem. I'll take care of it. ASAP. INGVILD Okay. ARIEL Hi. INGVILD Hi. What do you want? You don't need to get contraband wine to ask for help, just ask. ARIEL Vigleik, he... doesn't want to be in quarantine anymore. He says he's going back to Bergen. I don't know what to do. INGVILD Leave it with me. ARIEL I tried to talk... INGVILD Leave it with me! JOHANNES Hi. ESTHER Hi! We can't have any windows open. LEO I know. ESTHER And Johannes... He can't go outside. LEO Yeah, the police will take care of that. Have a good day. ESTHER Listen up, guys! I know that you work all hours of the day. That you're doing the best you can. That you are very skilled. Unfortunately I don't come with a solution. My task is to help you. This comes from Pantogena's fish farm. I want it defrosted and examined. AANDAHL We have lots of samples of the bacteria from humans. ESTHER Yes, but it was in salmon that the first bacteria of the Yersinia family was found. I want it examined again. Analysed. Look for something abnormal, anything. Something we didn't find when we were only looking for the cause of a disease in fish. ESTHER You use E. coli to cultivate the plasmids? AANDAHL Yeah, they're the most efficient. We can get million doses from this. ESTHER That's more than enough for all of Norway. AANDAHL Yes, but a batch takes days to produce. The Yersinia bacterium now mutates on average every hours. So, we don't know whether the vaccine will still work in days. MAJOR Esther Winter... I need a timeframe. When can we get a working vaccine? ESTHER I need Stefan's research and his log that you stole from me. MAJOR When will the vaccine be ready? ESTHER I can have it ready in days. And I need another days to test it. MAJOR Six months? HEYERDAHL Well, we don't have six months. HEYERDAHL How many people will have died in Bergen over six months? INGVILD No one knows obviously. HEYERDAHL That's not fucking good enough! Ingvild, I want estimates. I want alternatives. I want room for manoeuvring. INGVILD The only real room for manoeuvring we have right now is to make sure the contagion is limited to Bergen. HEYERDAHL Really? That's what you've got? INGVILD For every hour we wait, the risk of contagion outside Bergen increases exponentially. HEYERDAHL What about those already in Bergen? Fuck me. Everyone out. Out! Come on! Ingvild, out! Ariel, you stay. Sit. The job now, Ariel, is kind of the same as what we've been trying to do for a long time now, and that is to try to save our country. Wall. A synonym. What's the first word that springs to mind? ARIEL Safety. HEYERDAHL Safe. That is absolutely the most important word to me. Making everyone in Norway feel safe is the foundation upon which Our Way is built. From safety grow safe people. And safe people build safe societies. At the moment this particularly applies to all of you in Bergen. In this serious situation I want you to know that I'm doing everything within my power to safeguard you. INGVILD Reactions? ARIEL People in Bergen hate this, but... People in the rest of the country are more convinced, though some are critical. INGVILD How about Odd? ARIEL He's posted something on Twitter now. He writes "Amund Heyerdahl, where are you when Bergen needs you the most?" INGVILD That man is as predictable as a rainy day in Bergen. MAN Bergen! Liberate Bergen! Bergen! Hey, let go of me! Get your hands off me! Get your hands off! Let go of me now! Bergen! ANETTE What's up? ESTHER I'm here to take some tests. ANETTE Where have you been? ESTHER I can't talk about that. ANETTE Yes, you can fucking talk about it! You know Erling lost his job because of you? ESTHER No. ANETTE Yeah, he was fired from the hospital for breaching the code of ethics.Because he looked at Uma Scholl's autopsy report for you!Who... Do you want something? Are you under arrest? ESTHER It's a bit complicated, but I'm here to make a vaccine. ANETTE You know that Hilde is here? ESTHER Is she going to make it? ANETTE We've managed to hold the infection at bay with antibiotics so far, but... It's not looking good. ESTHER When you were at my house, you took a suitcase. I need that suitcase. Call your boss and tell him I need it. He'll know what I mean. ANETTE What's happening? ESTHER Listen to me. All I have time for now is the vaccine production. That's the only thing that matters. I love you. Hilde, I'm so sorry about your mum. HILDE It was me who infected her. ESTHER You mustn't say that. There are so many people infected now she could have been infected anywhere. HILDE Am I going to die? ESTHER I'll do everything I can to help you. Until we've managed to develop an efficient vaccine, all the sick will be treated with antibiotics. This is the prototype of a broad-spectre AMR antibiotics I developed in the US. I want it to go into mass-production as of now. ESTHER The vaccine. The plan ahead. Yersinia mutates every hours. Hence, we must produce a new version every hours. Whether it takes or days, we'll carry on until we catch up with the mutation. MAJOR Antibiotics don't work on Yersinia. ESTHER There are several recordings missing from Stefan's log. MAJOR You've been given what's relevant to your task. What is broad-spectre AMR antibiotics? ESTHER It's what you use when you have no idea what you're doing. Like firing a shotgun in the hope of hitting something until a cure is found. What are you doing? POLICE OFFICER Taking your ankle monitor off. ESTHER I can't be here. POLICE OFFICER Come on. ESTHER I have to be with my family. I want to talk to my lawyer. I want to talk to my lawyer. POLICE OFFICER Sit. HEYERDAHL Hi, Esther. You can remove your mask, there's ample distance here. Sorry about the fuss, I'm not allowed to be in Bergen now. But I need to talk to you. ESTHER You get daily updates from your lackey. Talk to him. HEYERDAHL I need your help. ESTHER Then I want you to say in public that the plague wasn't brought here by Uma Scholl. HEYERDAHL Uma Scholl was ill. I've seen the autopsy report. ESTHER Because someone put the bacteria in her body with a syringe. HEYERDAHL That's too... This is just nonsense. ESTHER Then we have nothing to talk about. Put me back in the custody cell and let me talk to my lawyer. Or let me go home. HEYERDAHL Okay. Is there any evidence that the plague wasn't brought... ESTHER Yes, there is. In the Norne web. HEYERDAHL Okay. Norne! Log me in! ESTHER Norne, bring up the autopsy reports of Uma Scholl and Stefan Keyn. NORNE Retrieving autopsy reports. ESTHER Cause of death Uma Scholl. NORNE Drowning. ESTHER Cause of death Stefan Keyn. NORNE Respiratory failure caused by pneumonic plague from the Yersinia pestis bacterium. ESTHER Was Uma Scholl also infected by Yersinia pestis? NORNE Yes. The tests show that there were Yersinia pestis bacteria in her blood. ESTHER Perform a comparative analysis of the Yersinia bacteria from Uma and Stefan. NORNE Denied. You don't have access to such an analysis. HEYERDAHL Norne, this is Amund. Perform the analysis. NORNE The bacteria DNA in the samples from Uma Scholl and Stefan Keyn is identical. HEYERDAHL You knew this already. Stefan was infected by Uma. Uma was found in thewater under the fish farm. ESTHER There's just one thing There are no bacteria that are completely alike. Ask Norne to make,a Horvath clock comparison of the DNA. HEYERDAHL A...? ESTHER Horvath clock comparison of the DNA. HEYERDAHL Norne, perform a Horvath clock comparison of the DNA samples. NORNE The result of the Horvath epidemic clock test shows that the two DNA sequences have an identical age. Age months plus minus days. ESTHER Uma comes from a camp in Sweden. The chance of her being infected with Yersinia pestis with exactly the same DNA at exactly the same time as Stefan is zero. HEYERDAHL Okay. I understand. You can call me at this number any time. Call immediately if anything new comes up. Okay? Here. I... I will get to the bottom of this. I just have to do things in the right order, or all hell will break loose. I also have to ask you that this is kept between you and me for the time being. ESTHER I don't think you have to worry about that. No one believes me anyway. HEYERDAHL You don't need that. It's fine. This has matured for years. It's from Islay, that's an island off the coast of Scotland. We haven't had time to make this in Norway. I summoned you here because... Because I need a few words from you. Some words that... ...well, are a bit like this whisky. Bloody awful at first, and then... ...it grows on you. What I'm about to tell you must not leave this room. It has to stay between us. I have just been told that the first case of infection outside Bergen has been registered. In Tromsø. HEYERDAHL The brutal truth is that we can't stop this contagion spreading on our own. That we for the first time in ten years need help... ...from outside. ESTHER You have to check all fish farms in Tromsø. Every farm that vaccinated their stock in the last year. There's something wrong with the vaccine, I'm sure of it. MAJOR Vaccines don't spread contagion. What... ESTHER Don't you understand what I'm saying? The salmon vaccine was used in Tromsø. MAJOR What I understand and which you have to understand is what I say You're going to make a vaccine. Not a word about anything else to anyone. JOURNALIST Esther Winter! Could we ask you some questions? The contagion in Tromsø, is that the same plague bacterium that we have here? ESTHER What we know is that it is a Yersinia bacterium. JOURNALIST How could the contagion spread to Tromsø? ESTHER I don't know. JOURNALIST The contagion in Bergen came from a refugee. Tromsø is , km from here. How can you explain that? ESTHER I have no explanation. JOURNALIST When you worked at the DHFS, you said you'd never let us in Bergen down. Yet there's now food rationing here. Many have died and even more are ill. Why do you think you'll have greater success in developing a vaccine? ESTHER I have no comment to that. JOURNALIST Why should Bergen even believe Esther Winter then? MAJOR These are the instructions regarding the deportation of refugees. And one person is to be deported first. Charlie Oldman. He's a very high contagion risk. HAMMER Surely everyone is? MAJOR He's to be deported first. And by himself. ARIEL Hi. INGVILD Hi. You've been working all night? We must hold a press conference about the spread to Tromsø today. ARIEL Okay. INGVILD Amund told me he'd briefed you? ARIEL Yeah. INGVILD Do you have anything for me to read? ARIEL Not yet. INGVILD Get some sleep. ARIEL Okay. ESTHER Max, did you get my e-mail? Have you checked the bacteria samples? Please! Contact me as quickly as you can. We could really, really use your help. Who took these blood samples? AANDAHL I did. ESTHER You know Charlie Oldman? AANDAHL Yeah, I was his doctor in jail. He had the pneumonic variant of Yersinia. We thought he was going to die, but he survived. ESTHER He was cured by antibiotics? AANDAHL No, he had max two days to live. We gave him painkillers and fever-reducers. The samples gave no indication why he survived, so it was reported as a margin of error. ESTHER Do you have more blood samples? AANDAHL No, but he's still in hospital. Apparently he's being deported. CHARLIE Okay, okay! AANDAHL Norne, call Esther Winter. NORNE Calling Esther. ARIEL Ingvild... I need to talk to you. INGVILD We're preparing a press conference. ARIEL I need to talk to you. Now. INGVILD It looks fine, but please let BT ask their questions first. Okay? What is it? ESTHER Call Heyerdahl. NORNE Calling Heyerdahl. HEYERDAHL Excuse me, I'll have to take this. Hi, Esther. ESTHER I'm looking for a patient. Charlie Oldman. He's about to be deported from the country and we need his blood sample. He could hold the key to a vaccine. HEYERDAHL I see. I'll locate him. You'll hear from me. INGVILD What the fuck is this, Amund?! When were you going to let me in on it? HEYERDAHL I was going to talk to you and the government when I was ready. INGVILD When you were ready? What happened to we? HEYERDAHL I see you've talked to Ariel. INGVILD Don't put this on her. HEYERDAHL We'll take a five-minute break. JOHANNES Aw! Daddy! Dad! LEO Johannes? JOHANNES It hurts. LEO What happened? JOHANNES A rat bit me. LEO Shit! We have to get you to the hospital now, yeah? Okay. INGVILD You have no right to decide that Norway should ask the WHO for help. HEYERDAHL I needed to air my thoughts. It helps to write them down. INGVILD Well, now I've read your thoughts! And they are wrong! We can't break with Our Way's policyright before the election! Sooner or later there'll be a vaccine. And this rescue plan is madness! HEYERDAHL What's madness, Ingvild, is to keep doing the same thing and expect a different result. Esther Winter won't be able to develop a vaccine for a long time, at best. INGVILD Okay. Then we'll find someone who is able to do that. HEYERDAHL But there isn't anyone who is able to do that in Norway. And I spoke to Esther, and she says there may be a Swiss scientist that can help. INGVILD May be? You'll stake your entire political legacy on a "maybe"? HEYERDAHL She also says that the plague comes from the vaccine. That there's something wrong with it. INGVILD We don't have a vaccine. HEYERDAHL She means the salmon vaccine. INGVILD Can't you hear yourself how totally stupid that sounds? HEYERDAHL Yes, maybe! But people will keep dying in Bergen unless we act now! And I just want to do what's best for Norway. INGVILD Yes, and I don't? HEYERDAHL You always want to do what's best for Our Way. HEYERDAHL And I'm not sure that's what's best for Norway anymore. CHARLIE Where are you taking me? AANDAHL Who gave you Oldman's coordinates? ESTHER Heyerdahl. He realised how important it is to get a new blood sample from Oldman. AANDAHL There it is. Why aren't they stopping? ESTHER Can you cut them off? SOLDIER Viking . This is Viking , over. OFFICER Viking , over. SOLDIER We're being followed. Have we been ordered to stop? OFFICER Negative, over. SOLDIER Drive, drive, drive! AANDAHL Who's that? ESTHER It's not the same car. AANDAHL We've lost them. ESTHER We have to go back. CHARLIE No, no, no. No! No, no, no, no! No, no, no, no, no! No! No! No, no, no, no! Please don't shoot! No, no, no! SOLDIER Get up! Get up! CHARLIE Okay, okay. SOLDIER Go, go, go!
