Okkupert (2015) s01e05 Episode Script
August
Who will you attack next? The oil industry? Maybe your wife's restaurant.
I hear it's the most Russian-friendly place in town.
He detonated a bomb.
A 15-year-old boy was critically injured.
Police! Ilyas! This is just what we feared.
The tumor is pressing on your brain stem.
That is an area where we can't operate.
We don't have to always attack the PM.
We might come across as bitter.
The Russians will withdraw at the end of summer.
Then I'll resign as prime minister.
- The Security Service chief is here.
- Thanks.
I imagine you'll be reorganizing as well.
Freeing up resources.
How sure are you that the Russians will leave? It's part of the international agreement between us and the EU.
And if they don't leave? What do you mean? Is there something I don't know? We have to consider a worst-case scenario.
I expect you to always consider that, in all cases.
Of course.
I still think we should consider a military build-up.
Five days before this situation is phased out, you want us to provoke them? I'm talking about a moderate mobilization.
With all the intelligence the Russians have here now I don't want anyone even thinking the word mobilization.
Understood? A NEW MAJORITY NEW POWER FREE NORWAY - We don't have time for this.
- Yes, we do.
There.
Take it off.
Look at this! - Here.
- I'm impressed.
You never know what might happen.
Sarah Chase, BBC.
Thomas, this editorial Impeach the prime minister? That's going too far.
You'll lose all credibility.
It isn't going too far.
It's spot on.
He has let us down, misled parliament, and now he's trying to emerge as some kind of eco hero.
Talking about the future at that thorium plant It's too personal.
Write another editorial.
Sorry.
Ask yourself: in a situation like this, where the government betrays its own people What choice and what responsibility do we have as individuals? The authorities tell us the Russians are about to leave.
But can we trust them? The theft is a fact.
The Russians have taken control of us without a single shot being fired.
This is Eivind Birkeland.
Born in 1978 in Oslo.
He studied human rights at Oslo University and Columbia University.
And he taught at the Norwegian Defense College.
- Any link between him and Christensen? - Possibly.
He gave lectures to recruits twice.
Christensen may have been there.
Bring him in ASAP.
Listen up.
Our time as the ruling party is coming to an end.
But I am confident we will be back here again.
Because we like governing.
Right, Anders? Making decisions.
Shaping policy.
Here is my vision: in the next general election, in two years, we, this party, will win big and create a new government.
That may sound crazy, but think about it.
We have been praised by the New York Times.
They said that we've achieved something unique in history by managing to keep the conflict at such a low level.
I'm convinced we can win back the people's trust.
- Finn is here.
- Finn? The party secretary.
I asked Finn to come.
There is talk of an extraordinary party conference.
Many of us here, Jesper, feel that the only way to rebuild this party is by choosing a new leader.
We have to remove ourselves from recent decisions that have been made.
Many of them associated with you.
- Is Anne de Vibe in on this? - Yes.
Anne agrees.
If that If you doubt my leadership This has nothing to do with your abilities as leader.
An extraordinary party conference is in order.
Let's ask our members.
I built this party from scratch! I didn't use those words, but - They're worried about the future.
- Of course.
But listen, Astrid.
They have gone behind my back.
Even Anne is in on it.
I mean I have every right to be angry.
- Maybe we can do something else.
- What do you mean? - Eve Sinclair called.
- From the Climate Council in Paris? They want me to lead their poverty project.
From Paris.
That's amazing, Astrid.
Fantastic! They want me to start now.
- In Paris? - Yes.
And she said thorium could be part of that project.
- That sounds great, but - You and I could work together again.
- That sure is tempting right now.
- I can go down there first.
Let's talk more later.
I have to take this.
Say hi to our little boy.
Talk to you tonight.
In a democracy, you speak up if you disagree.
But if that contract has been broken, who will listen to us? Protesting is speaking up when you disagree with something.
Resisting is making sure it doesn't happen.
Do you know who this is? That is the guardsman who tried to shoot Sidorova.
- I don't know who that is.
- Are you sure? We think he was involved in the terrorist attack against us.
I'm not surprised you've come to that conclusion.
The image of a young, unknown boy.
What if we told you that we know the guardsman was behind the bombing? I'm sure he's capable of that.
We saw you defend his terrorist acts.
Wrong.
- I don't defend terror.
- What, then? I defend the individual's right to determine which actions are necessary in this context.
- What context? - This situation.
Where our government has lost its legitimacy.
Free Norway's actions are self-defense against an occupying force.
And you know it.
What do you hope to gain with a bomb? Use your imagination.
Create fear? Create hope.
Who do you bomb to create hope? Are you thirsty? Could you get him some water? Thank you.
Are we off the record now? My colleague will make you reveal what kind of actions you support, and he'll pretend he's asking hypothetically.
And you'll answer, just to show how smart you are.
But if you answer, he can charge you with instigating terror, being a threat to national security, and he will have you monitored.
So what do you think Free Norway needs? What Free Norway needs is people willing to sacrifice something.
Who have nothing to lose.
- Get anything out of Birkeland? - No.
He clammed up suddenly.
Why? HM? "Happy birthday.
" "I wish you could come.
" "Me too.
It's so boring here.
" - Musayev? - I think so.
It's a phone with a prepaid SIM near Vestfossen.
- Who is he texting? - His sister.
Couldn't we monitor her, just for a week? "I'll try to come tonight.
" There's our excuse to continue monitoring her.
Thank you.
- What are you doing? - Just checking something online.
You know we're all being monitored.
- Not here.
- How can you be sure of that? We need to stay here, pick cabbages and shut up until we receive further instructions.
Listen.
Hang on.
Something big is about to go down.
This is only temporary.
Understand? - We're almost ready to attack.
- OK.
That editorial was his subjective opinion.
We have no choice but to follow up his allegations and lies.
What do you mean? Since when could you tell a journalist what to write? That's not what we're doing.
Your paper receives millions in public funds to enlighten the public and work for democracy, not to do the opposite.
Thomas, didn't I tell you not to publish that editorial? I thought we agreed on our policies.
- It was hugely popular.
- Everyone else looks up to us.
We're seen as being thorough, as being the ones tell the whole story.
But you're distorting the truth.
If we lose our credibility, we have nothing left.
I create the news.
I have the guts to speak the truth.
No! We're losing political credibility.
You've make us look like a populist rag.
This is extremely important.
Jesper has betrayed us.
And his party agrees.
- I'll have Anders Knudsen - No, this ends now! I call the shots here! - What's going on? - I'm serious, Thomas.
I'm the editor.
It's my responsibility.
You'll never get another article from me.
Stop overreacting, Thomas! As editor I am responsible for everything we print.
Where did your balls go? If you don't have the balls to print real stories, I'm done here! Let me in.
What the hell is going on? Sidorova is having her farewell dinner here.
Why haven't you told me? I run a restaurant.
Ready to go? Where is your backpack? Come here, Bente.
What is it? Cancel the dinner.
Bente, listen to me! Listen.
Having that many leaders here makes us a terrorist target.
- I have plenty of security.
- Listen! You and your paper profit from this occupation.
A lot of people have profited.
Who will you attack next? The oil industry? Maybe your wife's restaurant.
- Who is that? - The police bomber.
What?! - I just got an SMS - When did you talk to him? - A couple of weeks ago.
- Weeks? It was an empty threat then.
But now it's real.
You aren't safe here.
You talked to him a few weeks ago, and didn't tell me? You have to cancel.
It's too late! Come on, Petter.
You can work any other day, but not today.
I don't want you here.
I need the money.
I'll get tons of tips today.
- Fine, take him off the list.
- OK.
- Anders! - Three minutes.
Thank you for coming.
I heard you postponed your trip to Svalbard.
Have a seat.
This has been a very difficult time for many in our party.
But it's been extra hard for you on the climate panel.
I am very impressed with you.
You managed to keep the thorium project alive.
- It's the one thing that kept me there.
- Give yourself a pat on the back.
This is a key element of our strategy for the next election.
I honestly believe we will do extremely well.
And you and the thorium project will play a key role.
I think you're right.
I don't think the scapegoat strategy is the right way to go.
- That was just Ingvild's idea - Many young voters are disappointed.
We can't ignore that.
Did you read Eriksen's editorial? - Eriksen went too far.
- No, he's right, Jesper.
People feel betrayed by you.
You let Russia restart oil production.
You are charismatic, Jesper.
This period will be linked to you.
Someone needs to be called to account.
And you mean I mean you.
Let's go fishing someday.
- The environment - Thank you, Anders! Thank you, Anders.
We don't have time.
- OK? - Close your door.
What's going on? Is this some new method? There are people who are willing to sacrifice something for their country.
People with nothing to lose.
I am one of them.
No husband? No children? All you have is a career where you have to kiss the enemy's ass? My husband died five days after our wedding.
I have no children.
But I do have a brain tumor.
The doctor gave me six months.
But I have never kissed anyone's ass.
That isn't my style.
How naive do you think I am? Naive enough to think an academic and some angry boys can win against the Russians.
I'll contact you on this.
It's secure.
We have movement.
The target is moving.
Jasmine.
- Tail her.
- Roger.
- See if she leads us to Ilyas.
- Get going! License number? License BP 205111.
Roger.
Aslan Musayev.
That's his uncle.
- Have you located him yet? - Not yet.
She's met someone.
Probably Musayev.
Can't confirm.
That's Ilyas.
- We should bring him in.
- No.
Wait.
- He may lead us to Christensen.
- I can get him to talk here.
No.
We wait.
We can confirm that it is Musayev.
- If we lose them now - Wait.
We have the upper hand.
This investigation is based on illegal surveillance, so we can't apprehend them.
I'm so glad we found you.
You have to get out of here.
We have the paperwork ready.
You're going to Canada.
Here.
Our relatives will meet you at the airport.
You can't stay here.
You hurt innocent people.
That's no way to avenge I don't need help, Uncle.
- Do as I say! - I'm not going.
- You have to.
- Ilyas, go! They killed my father.
Do you expect me to give up? - Musayev is on the move! - He can lead us to Christensen.
Keep me informed at all times.
The airport.
Hi.
You're doing great, but you don't have to be here.
- But I need the money.
- You'll get it anyway.
Here.
- Seriously? - You can go.
We're overstaffed.
We're tailing Musayev.
If he's heading to Christensen, you need to warn him.
Hello? I see him now.
Hi.
What's going on? The cops are tailing you.
Where are they? - I don't - Have you ratted us out? We are in position.
Musayev is in the barn.
No sign of Christensen.
Awaiting orders.
- How can I know you're not a snitch? - I'm not! Put that gun down.
What are you doing? Christensen.
He's armed! Arrest him! - We have to talk to Wenche.
- I refuse to lose them again.
- We have to act now.
- I'll call her.
- Is Delta here? - Not yet.
They're getting away! Stop them! Look out! Police! Freeze! Stop! Stop or I'll shoot! Freeze! Drop the gun! Drop the gun now! Drop the gun! Nice and easy.
And now your knife.
Drop it! I told you to wait for my OK.
- We could have lost him.
- One of them.
I agree with HM.
If we hadn't acted You may leave.
- Where are you going? - To find Ilyas.
You just arrested a man using illegal surveillance.
You are going to the Russians' farewell dinner.
Russian intelligence is still vital, even though they're leaving.
You wouldn't be in your position if it wasn't for Jesper.
Fine.
See you at the party conference.
How about Rogaland County? I'm not calling for a party conference if I know I'm being ousted.
I'm going to miss this view.
Me too.
Let's drink to the women.
Hello? Get me the head of security at the Viksund gas plant.
Immediately! Right now! - Hans Martin? - Wait here.
They hit the eastern section and the European pipeline.
Many casualties are expected, but no Norwegians yet.
Only Russians? - So far.
- Only Russians? Today we were struck by a terrorist attack at the Viksund gas plant.
We don't yet know the extent of the damage, but we know it is serious and that lives have been lost.
We were phasing out our Norwegian-Russian energy cooperation.
This has been a major setback.
So that cooperation will continue until the EU's demands are met.
During this period my government and I will remain in power, to maintain stability.
- So the Russians are staying? - No questions, thank you.
We will have a new press conference I am at the scene with freelance journalist Thomas Eriksen.
Tell us what happened.
A bomb went off here at the Viksund gas plant.
This was a terrorist attack by, according to my sources, Free Norway.
The bomb was brought in on a bus full of Russian workers.
How many were on the bus, and how many were at the plant, is unknown.
The police are working
I hear it's the most Russian-friendly place in town.
He detonated a bomb.
A 15-year-old boy was critically injured.
Police! Ilyas! This is just what we feared.
The tumor is pressing on your brain stem.

This was a terrorist attack by, according to my sources, Free Norway.
