Episode 7
[cell phone buzzing.]
Yes? With her mother? How long were they there? Call me when they're back at Ares.
[door chimes.]
Are you awake? [woman.]
You're scared.
I can smell it.
Another chosen one has died.
A boy.
Twenty-two years old.
Innocent.
[woman.]
You're no longer innocent.
[inhales deeply.]
You're so sensitive, my boy.
That Roos is angry.
She should be the one on the throne.
New blood.
She's not ready for that.
You don't decide that.
Maurits you'll do what you have to do to survive.
Which is? Adapt to the times.
[Carmen.]
Think about it, Steenwijk.
What do you want to do? [Rosa.]
We have to be careful.
Leave it to me, Steenwijk.
Rosa! Hey, you're back? Yes.
Have you seen Jacob? No.
Not for hours.
I thought he was with you.
- I'm going to my room.
- Okay.
She's with me.
Is that right? Yes.
What's this for? Orders from above.
The alumni are dining here this evening.
Which ones? All of them.
They will choose a new candidate.
I hope I'm not hanging from a beam tomorrow.
[Marije.]
Like you will be president, idiot.
[sniffling, breathing shakily.]
[Marije.]
She's back.
And she pretends like nothing is going on.
[breathing shakily.]
Don't just let that happen.
Poor thing.
Are you okay? [retching.]
[soft clattering.]
[Jacob.]
I'm almost there.
I can feel it.
They tried to keep it from us.
But it called me.
It asked me for help.
I'll set it free this evening.
[Rosa.]
Do you mean Beal? This evening we will set you free, Beal.
Jacob we're going home.
Did they send you to get me? - Hm? - No.
What? Nobody sent me.
Let's leave this place together.
Jacob.
[groans.]
Jacob! [chains clinking softly.]
[indistinct whispering.]
[breathing heavily.]
[Rosa.]
What are you doing? What's wrong? [Lodewijk.]
Thank you, Leopold.
We'll see you this evening.
Okay.
Bye.
That was the last one.
Everybody will be there.
They all want to know who it'll be.
I'm also curious about that.
[Maurits.]
It's crucial that the next president is the right one.
Borms only made her angrier.
According to custom, Roderick van Hal is the next candidate.
When the dike broke in 1953, 1836 deaths, thousands of animals and tens of thousands of houses 200,000 hectares of land everything and everybody underwater.
Do you know why? Why? Because we didn't think ahead.
We didn't adapt to our times.
It's getting more restless by the day.
Or do you think those suicides are a coincidence? It's my job to calm it down before it gets out of control.
That's our job.
You want to give the keys to the one outsider.
If you really want it to be a woman let it be one from the families.
Who else? Before you say something I've been in the senate for over a year.
You chose Joost over me.
You chose Arnold Borms over me.
I won't let a novice get chosen before me.
Think, Maurits.
Dad, you have to listen to me.
I know there's a test beforehand.
I'm ready for it.
More than she is.
Dad, I'm talking to you.
Okay.
Fine.
Go back to Ares.
We'll prepare everything.
Okay.
Great.
You're right, we keep it within the families.
Where are you going? Running away? Bye, Fleur.
What's this, Steenwijk? Where is Carmen? You'll have to deal with me.
Where are you going? Hmm? I'm very sorry about what happened to Arnold.
You're a killer.
My brother didn't commit suicide.
Everything points to you.
What should we think of you, Steenwijk? Van Hal claims she already offers.
He saw her in the baptizing room.
You're already offering? As a novice? I'm going home.
You are home.
[groaning.]
[door opens.]
Don't look so serious.
[Maurits.]
Come.
We're in a hurry.
Do you have any fatherly advice beforehand? [Maurits scoffs.]
[EKG beeping.]
We're searching for the purest thing inside of you.
A custom-made test.
Different for everyone.
Personal for everyone.
Kill it, Carmen.
You're kidding, right? It's a joke, isn't it, Dad? This is the most important moment in your life.
We all had to do this.
[shuddering.]
No [inhales sharply.]
The first woman of our society.
Do it, Carmen.
You'll have to.
Do it.
Do it! [baby cooing.]
[sobbing.]
There are boys in the senate we can approach.
Maurits, everybody is on their way.
All of them.
Right.
Let's go and welcome them.
[EKG flatlining.]
[Rosa groaning.]
[David.]
Sit down.
[Marije.]
Okay, show us what you can.
Open her mouth.
Hold her well.
[gagging.]
[coughing.]
Nothing.
See? You know what to do.
[panting.]
- [electricity crackles.]
- [groaning.]
[Marije.]
She confessed.
Joost, Hester de Hoogh, Arnold.
You're lying.
- She killed all three of them.
- [grunts.]
- Let her solve it herself.
- [electricity whirring.]
- No - My brother hated people like you.
- [grunts.]
- [rod clattering.]
[grunts.]
- [grunting.]
- [crunching.]
[panting.]
[grunts.]
[grunting.]
[Roderick.]
Rosa! Hey! Stop! [panting.]
Don't do it.
Not you.
[Fleur coughing.]
Tonight we'll set you free, Beal.
I'm talking on behalf of Beal.
You are all dying.
[murmuring.]
[man.]
Calm down.
Hold him.
Stay calm.
Take him.
Stay calm.
[gasping deeply.]
[somber music playing.]
