A tumour? Of course, your suspicions must be taken very seriously.

-It's Monica. -How is she handling the divorce?

She misses both her mom and me. Right now, she doesn't have either us.

We promised the twins at home we'd never separate.

Why can't she live in Copenhagen and see you every other weekend?

This is where her school and their friends are.

You are a lucky woman. My good friend and colleague-

Has a cancellation at 16:30. For a PET scan.

-Yes, it's actually called that. -I can't do it.

You are brooding about it all the time. Isn't it better to get it seen to?

Is she here? My name is Rasmus and I work with Jasmina.

Then I've heard about you. - Jasmina! Rasmus is here.

Sit down here.

You should have got stitches.

Hey.

-Welcome home. -Thank you.

-How was Australia? Hot-.

Very hot indeed. They were nice to travel with.

-Thanks for all your text messages. -Thank you.

I can't say the same.

I regret that.

It's Leon.

Have you anything to drink? - Hey, Leon.

You haven't been assigned to to high-risk countries before?

I need a three men team to go to Islamabad tonight. Reconnaissance -

before the Minister's visit Wednesday. Little Kurt will text your travel data.

In the event of a worst case, you must writing farewell letters to your relatives.

Fill out the form of distinguishing signs, birthmarks or tattoos.

Of course. -See you at the airport.

It was Leon. I'm going to Islamabad in four hours.

-When are you coming back? -I don't know. Why?

My parents are coming this weekend. Maybe you could meet them. Or ...

-Meet them in real life. -Rasmus, you're sweet and delicious.

The problem is I began to dream about you on vacation-

And fantasized about the two of us together.

And I'd liked you to meet my grandmother and ... but I can't.

Then a baby comes flying past in a stroller.

And then I can't.

I'm going now. See you.

You are absolutely sure about Jasmina? -Yes.

All right. Then it's me, Jasmina and who else?

Leon?

Can I remind you Diana will come back tomorrow after sick leave?

-We haven't forgotten, Daniel. -I baked a cake.

-I've enjoyed very much here. -Good.

-Thank you for the opportunity. -Thank you, Daniel. Take care.

Goodbye.

It's chocolate. It looks good.

-For Islamabad, Nyholm would be best. -His wife will give birth in ten days.

He must be allowed to say no himself.

-That's Nyholm. -Hey, Morten, it's Leon.

I need three men to go to Islamabad.

Reconnaissance before reopening the embassy.

-Well? You'll be home again on Thursday. -Can I call you back?

No, I'll wait.

It's Leon.

He wants me to go to Islamabad tonight. I'll be back on Thursday.

Do you want to?

Then you should do it.

-It's okay. -Fine. Then we'll see you at eight.

Remember to write a farewell letter to your dependents.

It's good. See you.

It tastes homemade.

-Don't you want another cola? -No.

-Did you remember your iPod? -Yes.

See you in two weeks, huh?

Why you never come to see me and mom in Berlin?

I'll talk to mom about it.

-Monica? -Yes.

-Give my regards to mom. -I'll do that.

Dear Rasmus. If you read this letter something nasty has happened -

You have to live with the rest of your life.

I have thought about the two of us. About what I said to you.

I was scared. I want to show you Cairo and my grandmother will dance for you.

I'm taking that dream to Islamabad.

I hope you will be happy and you never get to read this letter.

I hope. Hugs. Jasmina.

- Hey, Morten. - Hey, Trine. - Hey, Leon.

I regret such short notice.

-Go ahead. -Thank you.

Hey.

Hey, Jonas. -Is Rasmus also ...

No. I'm just going to wish you a happy journey.

Who's going with the Foreign Minister to Islamabad on Wednesday?

I will with two other men. You and Rasmussen will be briefed at 8:00.

Benjamin, You'll say goodbye to Dad.

Here we go.

You�ll be busy down there. Can you have a nice trip now?

-Remember relax on the plane. -Roger.

-See you. -Yes, we will.

-Take care. -I will.

THE PROTECTORS

Foreign Minister Margrethe Koch attended the conference in Davos this weekend.

-With many world leaders. She participated in a panel-

-discussion with the Indian Foreign Minister.

Tensions between India and Pakistan were not discussed at Davos.

Last night arson occurred at a school in Birker�d ...

Good morning.

Blessed are those who make peace, for they shall be called children of God.

Our Foreign Minister is a brilliant theologian-

And has an excellent rapport with her Indian colleague.

I talked to Margrethe Koch yesterday about why she was going to Islamabad.

-To open the Danish Embassy. -Officially.

She had a long informal conversation with her Indian colleague.

When it ended he asked her to forward-

A message to the Foreign Minister of Pakistan.

It can't go through the usual channels.

There are extremist cells both in India and Pakistan-

-Who want a new armed conflict between the two nuclear states.

The Minister would like to visit a girls' school in Pakistan.

-Not a chance. -Girls' schools have a hard time.

-Yes, they are bombed by the Taliban. -She wants to show her solidarity.

A school near Islamabad would be safe.

Nothing is certain in Pakistan!

It is a strong desire and I've promised her.

-We'll send people out to reconnoitre. -You talk to the Minister again ...

You naughty boy!

Good morning.

It is fucking ... Damn!

Good morning.

It's great to be back.

I must have your passport.

Goodbye.

-Nyholm, you know where Taxila is located? -30-35 Km northwest of Islamabad.

Taliban-Land? -No ... almost.

You two are going there tomorrow. The Minister wants to visit a girls' school there.

-What? -You know what, Nyholm?

-We keep it to ourselves. -Yes, exactly.

"Three Danish intelligence agents have just arrived. "

"They'll go to Taxila tomorrow."

-It's 25 degrees in Islamabad. -It's not nice where we're going.

-Jasmina? -Bingo.

We need to come out in extreme situations.

It's certainly helpful.

-I'll take it. -Thank you.

-Hey! -Hey, Diana.

Welcome home or back or whatever you say.

-Did the surgery go well? -Yes, everything is gone.

All that could be removed. No, it's not true.

-It's from all of us. -Yes, but you chose it, huh?

-They're up and running. -Where are you going?

-To the briefing. -No, you are going to Randers.

-You've heard of PP, Preben Pedersen. -The Muhammad drawings?

Yes, it's all over everywhere.

Leon said we'd meet about the mission in Pakistan.

You replace Fjordby and Big Kurt. Unfortunately, the car hasn't been washed.

Diana, have we received information from Islamabad about the girls' school?

-Here. -Thank you. - Have a nice trip to Randers.

Shall we?

Yes.

-See you. -Bye, Diana.

Jasmina just returned home and now she's in Islamabad.

And we're going to Randers and to babysit the Muhammad cartoonist.

He will be very nice, the Muhammad cartoonist PP.

Threat: Middle level. Film director, Degree 1968

He takes anti-anxiety medication. Alopam, 15 mg three times a day.

He usually forgets. He keeps up the pretence, but is scared shitless.

Are you on Facebook? It gives people a kick out of having 500 friends.

Imagine to have 1.2 billion enemies.

-you make your bed, you lie in it. -I need a wiener schnitzel.

-With mushroom and cream sauce. -With lemon.

Small white potatoes.

-Hi. -Where are you? -Haven't you seen my note?

"On mission. Home Thursday."

-Why have you just seen it now? -What do you mean?

I wrote it for you yesterday. Have you been out?

I've been with Louise to finish writing my thesis.

-I'm in Islamabad. -Are you in Pakistan?

Ii it really the right place to go to right now, Jasmina.

They just forced a UN man out of his car and kidnapped him.

They're completely indiscriminate who they take. Only that they're Westerners.

If you saw me now you wouldn't been so worried.

-What time is it where you are? -A quarter past ten.

Can we talk tomorrow? I'm going on a long trip tomorrow.

Yeah, hello! You haven't washed the dishes.

We have to buy a dishwasher. What, Aisha? Good night.

Double.

I know you don't have Jasmina, but you keep your fingers on your side.

It's fun.

It's your fault we didn't go to Islamabad. Because you're sleeping with Jasmina.

-Give over. -PET. Think tank, they all know it.

-Then you can't work together. -We are partners. Who does it affect?

-There is another reason too. -And that is?

You're not good enough.

Tuesday, April 21. Reconnaissance before the Minister's visit to Taxila.

We are 35 miles from Islamabad and now driving through Tarnol Pass.

The Minister's delegation will fly by helicopter from Islamabad to Taxila.

In the event of alternative evacuation the road network is fairly passable.

-You hear what he says. -The minister should stay away.

Muhammad cartoonist Preben Pedersen is not afraid for himself. Despite the death threats-

-He continues his lecture tour in Jutland.

A television crew awaits us in the square. It must be "silly season".

After a well attended meeting in Randers, he continues on to Ebeltoft.

Preben Pedersen, you have bodyguards around the clock.

You pay dearly for freedom of expression. Is it worth the price?

I think if I can't speak the truth in a place-

The country isn't worth living in.

You have to endure a little discomfort, or find somewhere else to live.

-I want to change that. -Can we get you behind PP?

-And does the bodyguard agree to that. -We're just doing our job.

Preben Pedersen, you have bodyguards and pay dearly for freedom of expression.

-Is it worth the price? -Yes, I think so.

-If you can't tell the truth ... -Is that humorous? Is it funny?

-Do you think it is funny? -Stop it.

Do you think it's funny?

The fanatics have no sense of humour.

We'll continue the interview in there.

Damn, what a bitch. What if she'd thrown a knife.

-Yes, but it was a shoe. -I know.

I must write a report to Leon.

I know I should have discovered it.

"Today there are 27 Westerners at the hotel."

Well?

Minister's visit to Taxila is both futile and dangerous.

The area is flat and open. We can't possibly protect her.

You take a half-hour break and we'll see you in the conference room.

-I don't need. -There is nothing to discuss.

I get on with things.

Thank you. I've lived in Denmark, almost my whole life.

So have I. Thank you.

- Yes? -It's Nyholm. Do you have two seconds?

-I'll go in. -I'll wait.

-Happy birthday, Alfred. -Wave to Daddy.

Alfred ... - Kiss him from me.

Goodbye.

-Yes, I'm here. -We have a problem.

We need to cancel the minister's visit to the girls' school in Taxila.

Jasmina and I just left when the Taliban bombed the school.

So far, five girls are dead and 43 injured.

It's the third terrorist attack in north-western Pakistan in a week.

-Should we find another girls' school? -No, we'll adjust it.

See you down there tomorrow. Good-bye.

-Well? -We'll adjust it.

-Good morning, Trine. Hey, Leon. Congratulations to Alfred.

Two years goes fast. Soon, there'll be a little moustache and leaving home.

-How is it going in Pakistan? -That's fine.

-What about you? -That's fine. It's good.

-Have a nice day. -Yes, you too.

As ...

Poor Trine. She hasn't slept since Morten left.

It's not so good, either for her or for the baby.

However, they had a very nice birthday ...

-Do you feel the same? When I leave. -No.

No.

Good.

I forgot to leave his food packages in the fridge. I have to go back.

-Claudia? -Just drive. I'll take the bus.

No, what's happening? Today I'm a mess.

Rasmus.

Can you see who it was?

-Jasmina. Should I call her? -No, absolutely not.

She may leave a message.

I don't understand her. What the hell does she want?

She doesn't means anything. In any case she didn't leave a message.

-Do you think it is funny? -No.

-No, he got a flat tire. -I won't change the tire.

Holy shit!

For Christ's sake.

-Stand up. I can try. -Thank you.

Procession is as follows: First the lead car with the Minister-

-Followed by the accompanying car with the Danish press.

And then protection car here at last.

What about the farmers? Here they stand, pissing in their fields-

And what do you get from them in addition to ever higher food prices?

-What is your name? Jonas.

Thanks for your help.

Questions?

Is it a coincidence they blew up school, the minister planned to visit?

I thought that too. Did they see us?

Mahmoud was in a great hurry to get away from there.

-Did he know something? -Or Sama.

-She brought in the tea. -Danish-Pakistani.

She speaks Danish? Why haven't I heard about it?

-I just learned. -Stuff I need to know right away.

-I'll check it. -Yes, and do it now.

-Hi. Is there anything I can do? -There was a child. It is heartless.

Yes, but more than 63 million Pakistanis said no to terrorism.

Look at this.

"Is it us who rob parents of their children?"

-I didn't mean it that way. I'm sorry. -I say sorry too.

I'm going to dinner tonight. Will you help me find clothes?

Of course. We can go on Jinnah Market.

If you ...

Just a moment.

It ends up I'll get fired. You have to go now.

-Only if you're following. -My father has forbidden me.

Don't you want to help our guest?

-Who is he? He was here yesterday. -He is Hamid.

Hamid's mother and my mother are good friends. They were good friends.

When we were little, they organized for Hamid and I to get married.

But half a year ago my dad broke off the engagement.

-Why? -It's difficult to explain.

In Denmark, they see me as an oppressed Pakistani.

But here we are Danes who mock the prophet.

My parents thought I wouldn't live with it.

-It's too boring. -It is very discreet.

I'm sorry for my parents. They've scraped and saved-

And they sold their clinic just before the financial crisis, fortunately.

This one. Try it.

They have built a nice house here. We are just like in Denmark.

What good it is.

Hamid. Go!

Get lost. Go!

Men, that is ...!

-I think he's really in love with me. -Does he also Danish?

Uh ... a little.

He visited us in Denmark.

What's his name besides Hamid?

I thought you were people interested in people's stuff.

But I know you are a Danish police officer. You can find back to the hotel, right?

-What is it? -Where are you?

-I'm out running. -Why aren't you at work?

I can get home before I go to the airport.

-He'll be happy about that. -How about you?

I'll pick him up so we can spend time together before you go.

Have a good one. Goodbye.

-Have you got a new driver? -He is ...

Shane Oatman. New Security at the U.S. Embassy.

The Minister wants to go ahead with her visit to Taxila. Listen, Leon ...

Extremists have attacked over 130 girls' schools.

17,000 young women have been deprived of an opportunity for an education-

But the girls won't to be enslaved. They build new schools. The Minister ...

The Minister thinks the story is important, but it will not be-

If she didn't go there and get photographed with the surviving girls.

-It isn't possible. -The enslaved girls aren't like us.

I have a damned bad premonition about this.

All right. I'll call the Foreign Ministry, and say-

the visit to Taxila can't take place because of ...

-Logistical reasons. -Logistical reasons? All right.

Have a nice trip.

It went well until I asked Sama the name of her former boyfriend.

-Were you too aggressive? -Did you get the last name?

My conclusion is Sama is okay and we should check Hamid.

He doesn't speak Danish, but he understands a lot.

-Was Mahmoud sitting in the lobby? -Yes.

-What's Sama's last name? -Tanveer.

Hamid must have applied for a visa at the Embassy if he was invited by Tanveer.

-There's a possibility. -I'll go to the embassy.

-Can this wait until tomorrow? -No. You must take care of the guests.

-You come with me now! -Take it then. It's over.

Come, my beloved.

I don't want to spoil the atmosphere, but is there another word for "suicide"?

-Kamikaze? -That's right.

We need an additional guard. Or the Muhammad cartoonist...

Hey, Rasmus. -Hi. Do you have it good?

-It's bloody poor connection. -I asked if you are okay.

What? Can't we speak in the morning?

-Why don't you go outside? -What did you say?

-Get out! -Yes.

-It's Morten. -Hi.

-How was your day? It's been busy.

There's a lot at home to be sorted out.

I just wanted to hear if you are okay.

-It's 24 degrees. Are you jealous? -Can you hear me now?

Yes, it is much better.

I have to get used to the Big Dipper being upside down here.

-Why did you call? -You just called.

-Why did you call this morning? -I just wanted to talk a little bit.

Did you hear about the girls' school? I saw one of the girls on the news again.

She had a happy, small fearlessly face.

I'll call again and say good night.

I'm going to go buy cigarettes. -Okay?

I'll stop when I'm on paternity leave.

-You said that with Benjamin as well. -There is no problem to stop.

Now, here's Benjamin. Do you just want to say hi to him?

-Hi, Dad. Hey, buddy. Have you been good?

-I had a good time. -Are you daddy's little fart?

Yes.

-I miss you. And I miss you, Dad.

-Can you tell mom? -Yes. Bye, Dad.

-I think of landmine accidents? -What do you mean?

It's just a little hard now and then.

-I got to go now. -Morten and I'm going to dinner.

-We'll talk soon. -Take care of yourself.

Same to you.

Morten Nyholm's voice mail. Leave a message, I'll call you shortly.
