Valkyrien (2017) s01e01 Episode Script

1 Central, Oscar 4 en route.
Requesting firearms.
Understood.
Firearms authorised.
I can't open it! DANGER – HIGH VOLTAGE Hi! Don't be scared.
You made it, then? Yes.
You're a tough one, aren't you? Ravn? - Hi.
- Good morning.
- Hiding back there today? - Yes.
Incredible.
Look, I've told you a hundred times, it can't be anyone but me.
I know.
I just wanted to be sure.
So any progress? No, quite the opposite.
I don't have the proper equipment.
- There's lots of equipment here.
- Not the kind I need.
I can get some more.
What do you need? A mass spectrometer, for starters.
A machine that analyses blood in a special way.
It's complicated.
- Expensive, then.
You need money.
- Only hospitals can buy them.
Money doesn't cut it? - Breakfast is on the table.
- No thanks.
I was thinking maybe you could check me over today? Your hand? I've looked at it.
You just need to use your computer less.
But when I put my hand on the keyboard You know what today is, right? Yes.
I'll look at your hand tonight if you give me a hand with something.
Sit still.
- Don't cut too much off.
- No problem.
This will look nice.
It's just a ritual.
6 MONTHS EARLIER I'm sorry.
You're sorry? Your proposed treatment has never been tested on humans before.
- No proper testing of any kind.
- You know I don't have the time.
Vilma, this is going to be much riskier than your outline suggested.
The decision is unanimous.
You risk catatonia, you may even die.
I'll die if I do nothing.
I developed this drug myself, as a scientist, and I believe in it.
- I understand that.
- Unn and Ravn will be helping me.
I take full responsibility.
You jeopardise the entire department.
Your licence.
Unn's and Ravn's too.
- I could be imprisoned - That's what you're afraid of! After everything she's done, you're worried about a law suit? You deny her the only hope left.
It's safer for you if she just dies! Put this on record.
Who here knows more about this than Vilma? None of you! - No one! - You think this is easy for us? It's undignified.
It's corrupt.
You've used her for all she's worth! You can't treat your own wife.
You'll lose your job.
You think I'd want to work here after this? We all know you care for no one but yourself.
Vilma is not going to die because of your cowardice! Reporter Joakim Reigstad, describe the situation to us.
The police have cordoned off an area around this burnt-out van, which is probably the car used by the escaped robber.
Police spokespersons are very tight-lipped about Fuck.
I would like to thank Odd and Signe, Vilma's parents, for arranging this lovely memorial service.
Apologies to those who have tried to contact me these last 6 months.
For having been of so very little help to all of you.
Especially to Siv, my stepdaughter.
I know that Vilma Many of you feel hurt by what Vilma did.
But Vilma's coffin is empty because she wanted it this way.
She knew what she was doing, taking her boat that far out.
She did not want to be found.
It's hard to accept, but we have to.
Vilma sacrificed everything for her research.
Above all, she wanted to create something for the good of us all.
Instead, her research made her ill.
And she was refused help.
But she never gave up.
She didn't stop.
She did not choose the easy way out.
Had she seen any other viable option, she would have taken it.
She didn't want us to remember her as a shadow of her former self.
- Leif - What are you doing here? I can't get the bleeding to stop.
Let me see.
- I fucked up.
- Hold this.
Where are the others? I'm alone.
The others got caught.
By the police? And you come here? I ran over a cop.
You have to help me.
- We have to get you out of here.
- I've got all the money.
Here? I'm cold.
Leif Will you help me? - My condolences.
- Thank you.
- That was a lovely speech.
- Thank you so much, Unn.
Come and see me if you need anything.
I mean that.
Anything at all.
Hello, Ravn.
My condolences.
- I did everything I could.
- That's great.
Everything within the law.
Had I, for just one second, believed in Vilma's treatment, I would have considered it.
And yet you don't understand why I won't come back? Ravn In my view, you and Vilma acted irrationally.
And in my view, I'm here today because of you.
- Hello, Ravn.
Could we - Hi.
Siv? Hello, Siv.
I've thought about you lots.
- What was the deal with the coffin? - Grandma and Grandpa wanted one.
- People will think she's in it.
- I explained that.
She's out there somewhere! Are they just going to stop looking? Can I have a hug? I need some stuff from home.
That's fine.
Call me, and we'll arrange it.
And I need to talk to you about something important - I have to go.
- I need to talk to you! Ravn! - What's going on? - Never switch your mobile off.
Ever.
- What the hell? - Come on.
Who the hell's this, a friend of yours? Look at his stomach.
He's been shot! Hey! Are you with me? - He needs a hospital! - If that was possible, he'd be there.
- Do you know his blood type? - He's got a dog tag.
NO ENTRY I'll lift his head.
Let's put him on that table.
Get me two bags of type A.
In the fridge.
They're labelled.
Move! My surgical kit is in the lab, by the rat cages.
Good.
Put it all in here.
Make sure everything's soaked.
- What shall I do? - Stand there.
I'm opening him up.
His kidney has been shot to pieces.
I have to remove it, or he'll die.
- Isn't that a bit drastic? - Help me with this.
Hold these two.
Now pull them slightly apart.
So I can get at this - Are you all right? - I'm fine.
There it is.
- I was thinking - Leif? Leif! I'm with you.
This is an extra newscast following yesterday's robbery.
During the arrest, a policeman was hit by the getaway car.
His condition is critical.
Police are now looking for this suspect: Teodor Naustvik, age 24 - You said he wasn't wanted.
- Now he is.
- He ran over a police officer.
- Who is not dead.
- They shot him.
It was self defence.
- He should tell that to the police.
He can't.
They'll kill him if he goes to prison.
- Because he hurt a cop? - Not the cops.
The other robbers.
That's just conspiracy theories you and your chatroom buddies swap.
Since 1995, 68 inmates have died in prison.
Only ten were suicides.
Come.
- Where? - I'll show you something.
Our Teo got the entire loot.
That gang is a greater threat than the cops.
- How much money is there? - 62 million.
- 62 million? - According to the newspapers.
- What if they find him down here? - They won't.
- Where are we? - No, no, no - I think you should lie down.
- Me too.
That cop! How is he? - Lie still! - He'll be fine.
Are you the doctor? - Leif, is that the doc? - It is.
Do as he tells you.
- I have to talk to Marit! - Hold him down.
It's OK.
This is no good.
He needs a hospital.
They'll see he's been operated on.
People will come looking.
- What if he dies on us? - If - What equipment do you need? - If he gets worse, lots! A defibrillator, a respirator, a load of drugs OK.
Help me out with this, and we'll have a shitload of money on our hands.
We could set up a clinic.
With everything you need for research.
- A clinic? - Yes.
That's blood money.
What was it called, that machine of yours? - The mass spectrometer? - Yes.
What have you got to do with this? Absolutely nothing.
Looking at Uncle Leif, are you? Yes, that's Uncle Leif.
- She's trying to make contact.
- Are you looking at Uncle Leif? It's so nice to have you here.
It's been far too long.
Yes.
Lots to do at work lately.
Wasn't the civil defence job meant to be more regular hours? - I'm not with them any more.
- You're not? I've been transferred to Oslo's Emergency Planning Agency.
Chief Technical Officer.
A bit more responsibility.
- Congratulations! - Thanks.
So what do you do these days? Maintenance.
Operations.
Rentals.
Of? - Bomb shelters.
- Wow! How many do you have? 457 in the greater Oslo area.
Huge facilities.
It's funny, actually.
By combining tunnels, the metro, sewers and underground garages, you can cross the city underground.
Must be a big department, then? - It's just me.
- You're kidding, right? Very few of the rooms are operational.
Were you just transferred, or did you apply? You could say I was headhunted.
That's great! You know lots about security and stuff, don't you? Yes, a little.
I wouldn't know where the nearest bomb shelter is.
In Fredensborgveien, opposite the new shopping centre.
So that's where we go if there's an air raid? Shelters are to be operative within 72 hours of a state of emergency.
That's a rather long wait if bombers come.
Good point.
But air raids are not what we prepare for any more.
What, then? Islamic terrorists? ISIS? They're pretty far down the list.
- You do have a list, then? - Yes, absolutely.
- So what's top of the list? - Well They are updated continuously - How about you? Found a girlfriend? - No, I haven't.
No? But you do see other people now and then, don't you? - I do.
- Like who? People.
- Do come back soon, Leif.
- Yes.
Would you give me a hand moving our old fireplace out? Someone's picking it up later.
Sure.
Bought a new one? No.
It's rather cramped in here, and this thing takes up a lot of space.
- You're not having a fireplace? - It's nice, but dangerous when Anna starts walking around.
Actually, my hand is badly hurt.
I don't think I can help you.
Leif? Have you lost it again? No.
But this is irresponsible with a baby in the house.
What's irresponsible about it? If there's a power cut in winter We'll visit friends with a fireplace.
Can't you imagine a scenario where it's not safe to go out? The Muslims, right? They'll cut the power and wait outside to kill us? They're not dangerous.
Power failure is.
That's top of the list.
All threats lead to power failure: disasters, pandemics, riots.
Power failure in itself would cause pandemics, riots, looting and chaos.
And our power grid has been sold off to greedy private enterprises.
I don't care that you don't know where the nearest bomb shelter is.
But don't bring a little person into the world and then get rid of your fireplace! You just can't! Hey, bro Leif? - Leif! - It's fine.
Thanks for having me.
Leif told me you can help me get a new face.
- Did he, now? - Yes.
People can disappear that way.
I've read about it.
You don't need a new face.
You need a new kidney.
That doesn't matter.
If someone sees me, I'm dead.
I can pay you.
That money isn't yours.
Besides, I work with acute injuries.
People who have lost an eye or shattered their jaw and need my help.
- Not idiots who steal and run away.
- It doesn't have to look nice.
Your face is one thing.
There's also your height, your gait, voice, eyes, teeth, fingerprints, DNA No one has my DNA.
I've always used fake names with dentists and doctors.
And my fingerprints? I've been altering them since I was 16.
- But your name is Teodor Naustvik? - Yes.
And I'm not an idiot.
I'm married.
My wife is pregnant.
I needed the money! So we can be prepared.
- Prepared for what? - For what's coming.
What's coming? - How well do you know Leif? - He's an old patient of mine.
- You're one of us, right? - In what way? Hello! I've got most of the stuff from your list.
All the disposables.
- We need to talk.
- I couldn't get the most expensive Right now! Come on.
Is everything all right? Why did you tell him I can give him a new face? - Because you can.
- That's not how it works.
- He can't leave here with that face.
- Drugs and bandages won't help him.
If his other kidney fails, he'll need dialysis.
His money and my network will get us what we need.
He may die before that.
And I'm not touching blood money.
Hey! Don't be such a hypocrite.
You rent this place, and your payment is overdue.
Are you threatening me? Me or him, is that it? You're the only one who knows he's here.
He needs help.
He needs a shrink, not a new face.
What's that? Don't you think I recognise that doomsday bullshit of yours? "The world is coming to an end" It's just paranoia! Internet conspiracy theories, pathologically muddled up! That stuff scares people and they do stupid things.
It almost killed him! So he's crazy and needs a shrink? One for me as well, is it? Aren't you forgetting something, Ravn? You need me.
Central, this is 3.
We've got a description of the woman who Hey.
Hi there.
- I've ordered your usual.
- Hi, Assaf.
Can I have some water? I'm glad you called.
How are things? - I'm fine.
We had this huge robbery.
- Yes, I heard.
Caught them yet? - We got all of them.
- Good.
Except the bastard who took off with all the money.
Really? It's funny.
They picked the one day when we were low on people.
- They probably knew about that.
- I think so too.
They must have.
But how did they know? That's what I'm asking myself.
- You think it was me? - I didn't say that.
- But that's what you think.
- We did talk about it.
That night, I said we were low on people because of the state visit.
Just between you and me, as usual.
That was top secret.
I haven't told anybody else.
But I would never Christ.
They must be part of some criminal scene.
I'm not.
I've heard that this guy Naustvik is a bit of a doomsday nerd.
- A what? - You know.
Survival in the forest.
Stockpiling canned food, making clean water from piss - You know those kinds of people.
- I know of them.
True.
I've never ever heard of anyone named Nøstvik.
- Naustvik.
- Naustvik.
Never heard of him.
But Leif, the information I give you when we meet What do you use it for? Assessment.
Threat evaluation.
Stuff like that.
You tell me stuff, but the exchange goes both ways.
That's been the way in this city since 1971.
The only way to ensure real preparedness is through informal contact between agencies.
Like what we're doing.
That's fine.
But a colleague of mine is in hospital, critically injured.
I know him well.
His wife too.
And some maniac out there is 60 million richer.
It's a shit situation, I know.
You've probably got a leak somewhere.
Have you told anybody about our talks? - We're friends, Per.
- Yes.
I've told you lots of things.
They're leaving no stone unturned, because somebody must have leaked.
- Don't you trust me? - I want to.
But you've got a few skeletons in your closet.
I bet you've got loads of weird stuff in those bomb shelters of yours.
I'll never tell anybody about anything you've told me.
Never.
I feel a little taken aback by this.
It's upsetting.
Knowing you think that way about me after all these years.
I don't know.
It's too much right now.
I have to go, I'm working.
- Let me know if you hear anything.
- I promise.
That night, I said, we're low on people Just between you and me, as usual.
I've told you lots of things.
They're leaving no stone unturned, because somebody must have leaked.
It is widely known that when the Titanic went down, the band kept on playing for as long as they could.
Fewer know that a good many passengers danced on as well.
Even after learning that they were doomed.
TO HELL That kind of thinking made us stop building bomb shelters 30 years ago.
There's only room for one in three of us.
We'll have to make do with that.
We no longer fear nuclear weapons.
We don't think about unpleasant things.
The thin line between Shangri-La and the abyss.
History shows there are twelve threats that could cause society's collapse.
Overpopulation is the top one.
255 children are born every minute.
A one-child policy is our only hope, but no one wants to hear it.
Number two: climate change.
Three: deforestation.
We cut down too many trees.
The world's mass of fertile soil is eroding away.
There's not enough water.
And what we have, we waste.
We're overfishing at an ever-increasing rate.
Over the years we've overhunted too.
Nowadays we stick to killing captive animals.
But every day, somewhere on earth, one species becomes extinct.
We use more oxygen than nature can provide.
Introducing new species into habitats shifts the ecological balance.
50,000 new cars are sold in China daily.
Poisoning is number eleven.
The final one is energy shortage.
That's our main vulnerability.
Any one of these twelve threats could wipe us out.
It doesn't take all twelve, or five, or six.
Just one.
That will sink our ship, even as we dance.
- PEOPLE NEED TO SEE THIS! - YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT! OSLO UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL - Hello, Ravn.
- Hi.
NEUROIMMUNOLOGY LAB How are you, Ravn? Why are you here? I'm working on something really exciting, actually.
But I need access to equipment here.
- What's it about? - I can't say much.
It's for the Civil Defence, so it's classified information.
I was thinking of what you said at Vilma's funeral.
- That I could come to you for help.
- Absolutely.
Anything.
A mass spectrometer? You've got several.
They're not being used round the clock.
I can't give you expensive equipment.
I know.
You don't have to.
I just need you to Just open the door.
I'll do the rest.
Ravn, are you really OK? Things disappear all the time in here.
- Anything, you said.
- Is this about Vilma in any way? - There's something I need to find out.
- What is it? - Will you help me or not? - I want to, but not like this.
I see.
Hey You do understand, don't you? We're talking to the head of the police organised crimes unit in Oslo.
Hege Salvesen, how have police safety routines been affected by this? We're reviewing procedures, but this was a singularly brutal Turn it up, will you? When a colleague is injured in the line of duty, we are all affected.
What can you tell us about the injured policeman? He's well respected within the armed response unit.
He's married with two children - He has a family? - Yes.
Let's hope he survives.
We are looking for this man, and we hope to arrest him swiftly and safely.
- Hello? - He's bleeding! I tried stopping - OK, we'll fix that.
Keep calm.
- Blood all over! From his face too! I'm coming right away.
- You first.
- Thank you.
- What happened? - He fell down the stairs.
You were supposed to look after him! - Yes, I know.
- Hold this.
Teo? His pulse is weak.
Get some more blood.
Move! - Type A, right? - Right.
Bring two bags! You'll be fine, Teo.
We're out of type A! - How about AB? - No! Get back here.
- Here, open this up.
- What are you doing? I'm type O, it works for everyone.
Thanks.
You said to wake you if you fell asleep.
Maybe now? Could you look at Your hand? Stretching is the only thing that helps.
- Like this? - Oh yes, that's good.
- And like this? - That's tender.
- It's supposed to feel tender.
- Yes, but don't You know what? You can do these exercises yourself.
- It's not the same, though.
- It's exactly the same.
It's not! Seems I'm the only one here who hasn't stolen anything now.
Leif, come and get me when he wakes up.
