I'm well aware that your patience has run out.

But I can assure you in the past 72 hours...

...we have worked very hard to solve the problem.

Doesn't Civil Protection have an emergency plan?

Do you have control of the situation?

Just in some sectors, not all of them.

When is the power coming back? - It's hard to say.

It's a computer system issue. - What kind?

Might be a bug or a virus, we are waiting to hear from...

Take some responsibility!

Our employee here knows more about it.

Leif Lien, head of the technical office. This is just his field.

Leif, can you reassure these people?

Else... - Louder!

For years I've been reporting to you and to your predecessors...

...a deficiency in dealing with emergencies like this one.

I requested funds to make the city safe but I was never taken seriously.

We are now in a situation on which we have no control whatsoever. Thank you.

But... what do you think of this situation?

The city is in a state of emergency and it's only getting worse.

As for now, the entire emergency net has collapsed.

Mobile networks and broadband have been off for two days.

It's all dead.

It's almost impossible to identify the problem and restore the power.

Water and drains will follow. That means no more purified water.

There'll be gas shortage. Trains and airplanes will stop.

It's -12°C and it's going to snow. Roads will be clogged and we won't be able to move.

No goods will be transported around the Country anymore.

Fear will grow into panic.

We are to expect looting, robberies...

...murders and riots.

At night, people will be afraid... and with good reason.

I've done more work in the past 3 days than in 10 years here.

I hope Ravn's work will confirm what I found out.

That would mean a lot.

A little help here? Is there anyone?

Let me have a look here.

Does it help you breathing? Bente!

I'll go look for someone in the ward.

What about that broken femur? - It's not life threatening.

Dear Marit, I know it's not...

I thought I couldn't have visitors.

Hey! Not Again!

Please!

Scream.

Now listen.

The power is out and one generator is keeping all the doors locked.

If it fails, all the cells will open up at once.

It's in the boiler room. Tomorrow we're going out.

You will help us. - Me?

How do I...? No way!

I can't, I'm sorry.

I heard you're gonna be a father.

If you say no, I'll be the first one to visit your son. Got it?

Vilma, I gotta go back to the E.R.

Is everything ok?

I can't make any progress without your results.

I thought my research was unusable.

Incoherent, unprofessional and immoral. It got me out of the coma though.

From a clinical point of view, it should have been impossible.

Thank you.

My bacteriophages fought the virus but also worn down the nerve fibers.

Your treatment repaired them and stimulated a new growth.

I feel something is different inside me.

We created something invaluable.

I might be able to develop something that could save thousands of lives, maybe millions.

Something that will outlive us...

...and give meaning to everything you've done for me.

Wouldn't it be great?

"And there was evening, and there was morning, the third day."

But there wasn't light...

Darkness was on the seventh...

Hi.

What you're up to? - Sit and eat, what about you?

I've come for my research. - There's nothing yours down here.

That's because you stole most of this from the hospital.

Right, you're at the hospital now. You have electricity and everything's alright.

Go back into the system. Are they gonna take your research too?

Did you take it, Leif? - What?

All that was in the fridge and on the wall. Did you take it?

I did not. - Who else might have?

It's been closed since you left. I'm the only one here.

Do you live here all by yourself?

Are you hungry?

No, thanks.

I have food and heating, I can go on for a while.

I see, but...

There's people freezing and starving out there. You should bring them here.

Yes, I should. - Not everyone is self-sufficient, Leif.

Your brother and his family, aren't you gonna help them?

I'm here helping people right now. I did warn my brother.

What do you know about what happened? The power cut?

Are you involved? - Am I involved? - Yes.

You know about these things, you talk about it all the time.

You have access to lots of places in town. - Right.

You think that one person alone...

...can cut the power off to one million people?

I couldn't say what you're capable of. Do you have anything to do with it or not?

You made your choice, I made mine. We're both fine like that.

Give me back your keys and we're done.

I'm going to the police. - Do you really wanna go to prison?

Is that what you want? Nobody must know what we were doing here.

Look at here, Radka!

You seem tired, want a ride?

No, thanks, I don't live far.

I don't know how much gas I got left. Get in and let's see where we get to.

Maybe just a little stretch.

Hey, hello!

How cute, what's her name? - Kaja.

She likes to stay in the warm car.

Hop in, Radka. - Come sit in front.

Hey, wait! Stop!

Wait! Radka!

I'll fight to maintain the power for as long as possible.

It'll come down to us and the Emergency Room.

There's nothing left down there.

Your research is gone? Don't you have a backup?

No, I'm sorry. - Such things can't just disappear.

We need those results. - I'm aware of that but they're gone.

How is that possible?

That's how it is! I can't bring it back by magic!

Shut up!

Will you leave us alone, Grethe?

Ravn...

Without the research, you need to remember what you did and how.

It's one year's work.

It's an alternative to antibiotics to kill the most strong bacteria.

The world is out waiting! Try to write it down.

Do you trust them?

What...? - Do you trust Corpus and Grethe?

An international listed company wants to sell what's inside you.

What other choice do I have? Corpus will confirm our foreign clinic story.

You should have talked to me first.

They were gonna arrest you! - Maybe, but...

...always better than sell my soul after all we've been through.

This will allow us to have a new start. Together.

If you'll help me.

What are you doing?! - It's not you I'm helping with this!

We can't have a new start based on a lie.

We're so close... - Vilma, you and I must go away.

Ravn, please... - I will accept my sentence...

...as long as I have you and Siv.

We can drop them. - It's too late.

Not if you come with me, now.

Or else?

Vilma...

Ravn?

Hey, is there something wrong?

It's over between me and Vilma.

How's going here? - Worse and worse.

Where do I start? - Come, I'll show you.

July 13, 1977, 9.30 PM. There was a blackout in New York.

The light came back after only 24 hours.

In that time though, 1600 shops were looted and burned.

4500 people were arrested, 550 wounded amongst the police.

Like today, there was an ongoing financial crisis. People were angry and scared.

Scared of the dark and of the other people.

One Sunday, a local priest said to his congregation:

"God has forsaken us."

Leif? - Hi!

Hi. - He's my brother, Leif.

He works for the city bureau.

I know a safe place, it's not too far.

You'll have everything you need for a long time.

It's all set up, you just have to follow me.

You're very kind worrying about us.

Is it one of your bomb shelters? - Come and see for yourself.

Thanks but we don't need to go underground.

It's nice here. - I see...

We got to make friends with the neighbors.

When cellphones go out, people start talking again.

It's actually a positive experience.

Positive? This is just the beginning, the power won't come back.

It won't come back! - Of course it will.

It's not coming back. I give you one night and all will be over.

Don't listen to that bummer.

It's the fourth night and we're organized.

That's right, we are well equipped.

I guess we learned something from you.

We got canned food, dry food, water...

...flashlights, candles, firewood and also alcohol.

With the help of a farm near here, we'll be good for another week.

Maybe more. What do you say? Do we have your approval?

We'll work it out as long as we stay united.

Aren't you staying a bit with us? - I'm doing some work for the Emergency Department.

We could really use your help.

Can you repair an old generator? It just won't start.

Petrol or diesel? - Diesel.

I'll have a quick look but I really have to go, there's a lot to do.

Ravn, there's a woman about to give birth.

Hi, what's your name? - Marit.

Ok, Marit. Look at me. Breath deeply.

Very good. How far apart are the contractions?

Always!

Fuck, the generator... - Let's get an ambulance and go to the clinic.

We'll bring as many people as possible. - Yes. Come on up, Marit.

Think of how many things Anna will learn from you when she grows up.

What things?

That thing about the stove for example. We were wrong to throw it out.

We should have listened to you.

I don't know if...

She's learning something by simply being here.

She won't remember.

Maybe not, but she's making a physical experience.

I think that's important.

She's learning very early that the world is fragile.

Also that people, deep down, are really willing to help one another.

That's why it's all gonna end well.

She won't learn anything from me, it's too late now.

But...

Ok, you just have to get inside now!

Make yourself comfortable and we'll help each one of you.

There's food and blankets. Let's start with Marit.

You listen too.

It's alright, Marit. Let her listen too.

Yes, we're out of time.

I don't know what you've been told but the party is over. You're getting out now.

I mean everyone! Come on, get out!

I'm armed so do as I say.

What happens? - Continue.

Stop whining, it goes for you too! - Leif!

They're staying here! - You broke in, what are you thinking?

You get out! - From my clinic?

Get out!

We're fixing the mess you've made! It's your fault if they need help!

Ravn, come here quick!

They must blame themselves!

It's alright. It's all under control.

It's time, Marit. Marit?

Marit, we gotta work together. Push as hard as you can and it's gonna be alright.

Hold down here but not on the stomach.

Again, Marit. Let's start.

Good, Marit!

Breathe! We'll have to do a C-section.

We gonna have to push the baby back! - We don't have the proper equipment.

We need a forceps, a plunger... - I have plenty of pliers.

This should work. Marit?

We'll use these pliers but you gotta keep pushing, do you understand?

Leif! Hold her feet so she can push. Come on!

Are you ready? Push, Marit!

Here we go! - Good, Marit! Come on!

I see the head! Come on! Come on!

Good, Marit. We're almost there.

One more push, Marit! Come on!

Good job, Marit!

There's mom! - Here, Marit.

That's so beautiful!

Are you ok?

Can I talk to you? - About what?

Becoming father.

You have kids? - Yes.

Boys or girls? - Two girls.

Do they live with you? - I see them every three weeks.

It's a long story. - My wife is due today.

I'll never see my son, I know that.

I wanted... to ask you for a little favor.

No, you have a restraining order. - I know, but...

You can read it and see for yourself there's nothing dangerous or about my case.

Maybe you could...

I don't know what to do...

You really wrote...

Yes. - It's very touching.

I wish I could write like this.

Sorry.

About what?

Let's go, guys!

Easy!

Open that door!

Teo!

Teo!

Hi, Vilma.

How are you? - Fine.

I had a long talk with Corpus AGE.

We analyzed the situation. - Alright.

It's a shame for Ravn's research but its value was strictly academic anyway.

It was valuable to me. - Yes, that's understandable.

But to synthesize a preparation what's important is inside of you.

We don't really need to know how you made it, in order to be able to use it.

Corpus can work on it if you let them do more analysis.

The deal was they were gonna help me with my research.

You'll be following the whole process, but...

Dammit, Vilma... I saw their lab, it's crazy!

They can isolate cells inside your pituitary gland.

Where would this be? - In Switzerland.

It's obviously impossible here, with the power out.

We'll be back in a week with plenty of resources and funding. It's perfectly safe.

What you mean "safe"?

They're very expert in this field....

...but in order to do specific tests, they gonna put you into a medically induced coma.

We talk about just a few days.

Vilma, it's not like it was before.

It's completely safe, you're gonna wake up.

Ok. - You won't feel anything at all.

When are we leaving? - Tonight.

Corpus has already sent a helicopter.

Hi.

Am I interrupting? - No.

I was thinking... - Is this place yours?

Is it yours here? - Yes, well... sort of.

It's exactly how you described it. In the forum.

You were following that? - I read everything you wrote, Leif.

The off-grid solutions, ready for when hell will break loose.

If it wasn't for this place...

Thank you.

I mean it. - You don't need to thank me.

I know you helped Teo building the shelter.

And you gave HIM shelter here. Thank you so much, Leif.

Leif?

Hey... Leif!

Where are you going? - Out. Isn't what you wanted?

I'm no longer needed here. - Marit is right, you know?

Right... - If it wasn't for this place, the baby would have died.

Marit knows nothing. It's you who saved the baby.

No, only I know what you did. - I've done worse than that.

You're not well, Leif. - No, but I'm not your patient.

You're much more. - Bullshit!

I believed we were friends, I really did! That we would stick together!

That we would have overcome any difficulty.

I helped you... and you ditched me. - Ok.

Ok, you're right. I ditched you.

But now I'm here and so are you.

This place is gone. What was mine now it's yours. I got nothing left here.

Together we can help people with no place to go.

You have to decide whether you wanna hurt people or save them.

They will remember what I've done...

I was right and now they know. They know what they would lose.

People are dying out there, Leif, all because of you!

You cannot play God just because you feel alone and forsaken!

I know you're a good person... - Shut up! It's not like that!

You're scared...

...and also angry, because people are not scared as you are.

Can you get electricity back on?

It's not that simple. - Can you do it or not?

Sorry.

They threatened to kill my family, I couldn't do otherwise.

I thought you wanted to see your wife. Why didn't you escape?

I don't want my sentence increased.

I would never see my son then.

A boy? - Yes.

I always wanted a boy.

There's been a mass evasion here, years ago. A technical failure.

An amnesty was granted.

To those who returned within 24 hours, the sentence was not increased.

Now the power's off. You came back to check how I was doing.

These are gone, nothing to do with them.

This one's good, we can systematically proceed from there.

Hi, Leif. What's going on? - Hi, Else, thanks for coming.

I discovered a computer virus. We've been hacked.

They managed to block the firewall.

Who do you think it was?

I'll find out.

I could remove the block and redirect the power to the transformers that are still working.

We'll get power back, at least in some parts of the city.

Yes... Else...

You know...

Formally, this is my responsibility.

You won't be a scapegoat only because you could do nothing about it.

I'm taking all the blame.

Don't... - Thank you so much, Leif.

You're doing a great job. - No problem.

Teo...?

Teo! - Hi.

Hello? Leif?

Who's there?

Hi. - Hi.

Forgive me.

Fellow citizens, our town went through some very proving times.

We now know what caused a break in the system

I leave the floor to Leif Lien.

Karsten... Leif's on TV.

I'm gonna try to... explain a bit.

Are you that Leif who opened a clinic underneath Valkyrie subway?

That's right. He did it on his own, with no authorization.

Yes... I used some empty rooms.

Can you tell us how many people have been tended to down there?

In the clinic? Well...

100, maybe.

Maybe 150.

The word is you saved many humans lives. Is that true?

We did all we could within our means, so...

...it wasn't really anything exceptional.

Leif, some say you had already foreseen a possible blackout but no one listened.

What do you think of that now? - That it could have been avoided, that's what I think.

Whenever a catastrophe occurs, that's how things go.

You gotta roll up your sleeves and be happy you get a chance to start back.

That's the chance presented to us now. Nothing will be the same as before...

...but we can't give up.

Leif! NRK, we'd like to see the clinic! - Thank you.

Ok.
