[Sokolov in English] I hear there was an incident.

Yes. Raunola, the escaped suspect,

he killed a woman.

[Sokolov] That would be Ms. Irina Nikolajev?

Correct.

[Sokolov] That is unfortunate.

Good luck finding him.

We already did.

[Sokolov] Have you been able to talk to him?

He's dead.

[Nina] Hi, Thomas.

[Thomas] Hi, can you come to the hotel?

Marcus Eiben wants to meet us.

I'll be there in ten minutes.

[music continues]

We could greatly benefit from each other.

In which way, if I may ask?

We have the same objective.

How can you be so sure?

I am.

This matter is strictly confidential.

I don't have the liberty to discuss it with you.

I am here to find patient zero,

and so are you.

[tense music]

But the difference between the two of us is

that I know who he is.

How could you possibly know?

He and I, we have something in common.

[Thomas] Tell me one thing

that proves you right.

If I do that

will you at least consider

to share your expertise with us?

Only if she is here.

[Marcus] Sure.

I've been watching you, officer Kautsalo.

I even think it's important that you have that information.

It will be your decision how to handle it.

Give us something concrete.

[sighs]

The Yemeni virus is an ingeniously designed

agent of warfare.

It was designed by a Serbian scientist called Micic in '93.

Its sole purpose was to decimate

the Muslim population of Bosnia.

The genocide was meant to be slow, methodical, unnoticed.

Without the ability to procreate

the infected population would gradually go extinct.

No widespread killings,

no mass graves, no war crimes, but above all...

no traceable evidence.

[unsettling music]

During the test phase

only a handful of Serbian soldiers

were made carriers of the agent.

Their mission was to rape Muslim women,

to raid and to humiliate.

But first and foremost,

to infect the population with the virus.

Fortunately, the operation was still in its infancy

when the war ended.

Only one of the infected Serbian soldiers survived.

His name is Cevikovic.

Lazar Cevikovic.

He now lives in Murmansk

and goes by the name of Konstantin Agapov.

He's the very last living person

with the very first strain of the virus.

Cevikovic is patient zero.

Before Murmansk

he was hiding in Yemen for several years.

[Thomas] If all that you say is true,

why are you here

in person?

My wife was a Muslim.

He raped her and infected her.

So she died during childbirth together with my unborn son.

It's in your hands now.

Make a good decision.

[Thomas] Okay, let's think.

Could patient zero be here?

In Lapland?

Why not?

Well, we always assumed

the zero strain originated in the southern hemisphere.

Seems like quite a hell of a jump to the north.

Until now, we've only been focusing on natural mutations.

What if the virus was developed

as a weapon of war?

[unsettling music]

What if it was engineered

to exterminate a specific population

in a very nasty kind of way?

- Practically untraceable. - Genocide, without witnesses.

Yes. The good thing is...

whoever is smart enough

to build a weapon that lethal

is hopefully wise enough to build in a safeguard.

Genetic scissors, Cas Nine procedure?

Yes.

A genetically engineered counter-virus

to neutralize the original.

If it was intended as a weapon

the inventors obviously wouldn't want their own population

to get affected.

There's got to be a back door built in.

Otherwise it doesn't make sense.

[Maxim] Raunola succeeded.

The fourth girl is dead.

Raunola died as well.

[Cevikovic] Tragic.

[Maxim] Very.

[unsettling music continues]

Well done, Maxim.

Yes, sir.

[wind blowing]

[Jens] So, are the men on board?

On one condition.

Oh, fuck.

[Jens] Marcus, welcome back.

We're all set.

- I know your face. - [tapping on keyboard]

Yeah, we have a problem.

If this would be easy

everybody would be doing it, right?

They don't want to bring an outsider on the job.

Oh, I see.

Dr. Lorenz is the problem.

He hasn't agreed to the job yet.

Well, he might.

I certainly hope so. He's the best.

[Drako] With all due respect,

he has no training in any kind of--

[Jens] Drako.

No, he's not trained.

He's a scientist, he's a great mind.

Fortunately, he dislikes me.

I don't seem trustworthy, I suppose.

- Marcus, I must agree-- - Raise the stake.

Make it double, just make sure

your men accept the expertise of one single man.

[Nina] So, have you thought of his offer?

Yeah, he's right.

We're running blind. Dead end.

Do you think he's telling the truth?

I'm just wondering...

If this new strain crossed the border

and this Cevikovic guy's on the other side, then...

We have absolutely no authority

to operate in Russia, under any circumstances.

I'm just laying out the options.

But it's not an option, you know it.

If the virus acts as you think it could

and spreads across the world,

imagine what people and governments

would pay for a cure.

Yeah. You think he's just out to make easy money?

Yeah.

There's nothing illegal about that.

Marcus Eiben should be our last resort.

I still believe we have a chance without him.

[Thomas] Yeah, you might be right.

Now, I have a flight to catch.

Hanna's custody hearing is in the afternoon.

I will also meet my boss,

and ask for more resources.

[in English] Gunilla, please talk to me.

- You need to let her leave. - Gunilla.

- Please talk to me. - Mr. Lorenz--

Don't, don't, don't do this.

- Please, please. - Gunilla!

But... Hanna!

What the hell is going on here?

You're in a deep trouble here, Thomas.

What's this?

These are testimonies

from your friends and Gunilla's family.

I don't understand any of it.

Well, they paint a rather gruesome picture

of you as a father and a husband.

Okay, okay, if I'm lucky, I've got two days here in Helsinki.

I want to meet my daughter.

- That's very unlikely-- - Just make it happen!

Sorry.

[Thomas] Look, I don't have the necessary resources

to do this properly!

I need to be able to do my job.

[Jernberg] Thomas, my hands are tied.

We're operating under the jurisdiction of the KRP.

They are calling the shots.

Okay. Well, maybe they shouldn't.

They're working a criminal case.

They don't seem to understand the gravity of the situation.

I need to conduct a proper field epidemiology here.

Because right now, we are making judgment calls

without sufficient information.

We are flying blind!

I'll brief the Minister of Health on the situation.

That's the best I can do.

- No, that's not-- - You need to calm down.

[exhales]

The patient zero is most likely in Russia.

Thomas, listen to me.

We can't rock the boat here.

We need to follow the KRP's lead.

There is a bigger picture to consider.

If this thing takes a turn for the worse

Russia could shift all of the blame to Finland.

- They can't do-- - Thomas.

Get real for a moment. That's one possible scenario.

Okay.

Release me of the agreement with the KRP.

I will act on my own responsibility.

You don't seem to understand the scope of this.

That agreement is binding for the rest of your life.

Once you're allowed in, you stay in.

You may not disclose any information

neither as a scientist nor as a private person.

[lawyer 2] Sorry to bother you like this--

- No problem. - I thought I'd come in person.

I managed to pull some strings

to allow you a visit with Hanna.

There will be a child psychologist present.

Great. Okay, when, where?

Today, at your home.

Oh, my God. Thank you.

Well, it's a one hour visit, but it's a start.

Okay, and when, exactly?

Well, that's the thing. In 20 minutes.

20 minutes?

Yeah, that was the time frame your wife gave us.

- So that's why I'm here. - Okay.

Give me a minute.

Hey, Nina. Sorry, I'm really busy now. I--

- [Nina] Venla coughed blood. - [Thomas] What?

[Nina] She's now in the hospital.

[Thomas] I will come back as soon as I can.

I promise. Okay?

[in English] I don't speak Finnish.

[psychologist in English] Or English.

[in English] Okay, I don't speak Finnish

and my daughter doesn't speak English.

So we are going to speak German, and that's it.

Then we have to put an end to this right now.

We need to understand what you are saying.

Then get a fucking translator!

Okay?

- We have to call the police. - Yeah, call the police.

- Good. - [psychologist] Mr. Lorenz.

The police will have to remove you

if you don't play by the rules.

[in English] Yeah. The rules.

[psychologist] Yes, the rules. We got to respect the rules.

[Thomas] Yes.

For you.

[ring clatters]

[beeping]

What?

This looks like the Yemenite virus.

[Nina] This was, this was supposed to be an STI!

My daughter is six!

Has she had any blood contact with your sister?

- [Nina] No! No! - Blood transfusions?

No, no, no, no, no...

[Mei] Let's run the comparison to the virus sequence

- of the other samples. - What are you getting at?

I'm just searching for something. It's a hunch.

Hunch about what?

I don't know yet, but we're trying to compare

the DNA sequence of Venla's virus

to the original DNA sequence of the virus

of this other Russian girl, Evgenya.

But aren't they, they both the...

Aren't they both the same Yemenite virus?

Uh, yes, but maybe not exactly the same, you see.

Viruses are constantly mutating.

- [beep] - There!

Damn.

- What? - See that?

There's a difference.

It's not the same virus any more.

Or it almost is, but like I say, not exactly.

Meaning?

It's a new strain.

[ominous music]

Did she come into contact with anyone?

[Nina] My sister spent the night at our place.

They slept in the same room.

And you are absolutely certain

there's been no chance of any kind of blood contact?

[Nina] Yes, we are certain.

So, do you think the Yemenite could be airborne now?

Oh God, no, no, no. I hope not.

Okay. Did you check the genome?

In which locus was the mutation?

NZ zero zero nine three three four.

That's the same locus where the herpes virus is.

It has duplicated part of the DNA

of the herpes 9 virus.

[Nina] Okay, you gotta fill me in here.

What the hell are you talking about?

[Thomas] Okay, look,

ever since we first encountered the virus in Yemen

it has been traveling together with the herpes virus,

transmitted only through repeated sexual contact,

which was good, because this way

it was harder for the virus to spread around.

That's why most people who have the herpes

don't have the Yemenite.

[Thomas] Yeah, yeah, that's right,

and this new virus in Lapland worked the same way

until now.

You see, viruses don't want to be rare.

They want to go everywhere.

So this new virus

somehow mutated in Marita's blood,

and picked up a new trick from its travel buddy.

And what's the trick?

[Thomas] Yeah, spreading itself more easily, like...

So it's not an STI anymore?

[Thomas] Apparently not.

It doesn't need sexual contact anymore.

We have to test your whole family.

And put Marita and Venla

both in quarantine right away.

Yes.

[sighs]

How is Venla?

Stable.

She's sleeping now.

How are you?

Look, I have to run the full bloodwork.

It might be still something different.

You...

You're going to tell Mr. Eiben you're in.

You give them what they need.

And you will find the patient zero.

My daughter has been fighting her whole life.

Everything she does

is at least twice as hard for her

than it is for the other kids.

The normal kids.

I knew that when I had her

that it will never change.

She's always going to be looked at in a certain way.

Judged.

And I swore to keep her safe.

Show her how to navigate the world

that can be cruel and mean.

But this is not fair.

[Thomas sighs]

Do it for her.

[Thomas] So until we get the results in the morning

you have to stay here, okay?

Next time we see

we drink a schnapps with three stars, okay?

- See you. - [in English] See you.

[sighs]

Mr. Eiben?

We have to meet.

Come in. Wanna have a drink?

[machine beeping]

[in English] I had a bad dream.

I was at the party again.

Tell me.

It was a hunting party.

Irina.

Please tell me.

Is the man in the photo we showed you,

is he organizing these parties?

Yes.

He is the one.

Konstantin Agapov.

Agapov?

Can you remember where it was?

I remember a beautiful sea.

Um...

What did the house look like?

Concrete.

It was in the rock.

In the rock?

Yes, high above the sea, nothing around.

And I knew it was Zubovka.

I was there with my mother as a child.

[Thomas] Okay.

Do I understand correctly?

It's not a military operation

because, you know, it sounds like one.

You know, we're going illegally to Murmansk...

We can't just knock on the door.

Your job is only to get the samples

and, of course, to analyze them.

You'll be a part of the medical team.

The military advisers will only step in

if something goes wrong.

To save our asses.

I see.

Hundreds of kilometers through wasteland

on skidoos...

at night.

Minus 30 degrees.

We gotta take the most remote route.

We can't attract any attention.

So when is it gonna be?

In six days.

I'm in.

[tense music]

[banging on door]

- Yes? - [Nina] Thomas?

- When is the operation gonna be? - What?

In six days.

We need to wake up Mr. Eiben now.

Why?

By the time you'll get there

there will be no more patient zero.

I've got something you need to know. Now.

What is she doing here?

Cevikovic is going to be arrested

in 36 hours by the FSB.

What?

What's our time frame?

Oh, we don't get the chopper until midday.

I can get a chopper.

On one condition.

I'm coming with you.

That's a bad idea.

The option is losing Cevikovic.

You have to convince Drako's men.

Yeah. I will.

So, I'm in?

Get the chopper.
