All language subtitles for Occupied S02E02

The enemy has placed
surface-to-air missiles in Melkøya.

How are you going to get out
of your self-imposed asylum?

I hope you understand
the seriousness of this, Djupvik.

We need to find the men behind this
to bring the soldiers home.

- They asked me to be Prime Minister.
- You can't. They'll eat you like a mouse.

What about all the guys
being held in Russia?

Can you guarantee
they'll be extradited?

Yes, they will be.

It will be the shortest-lived government
in Norwegian history.

- Is that the Coast Guard Commander?
- Yes. Reidar Ryengen.

Get us in as quickly as possible.

Welcome. It's been a long time
since a Prime Minister spoke here.

Thanks, I look forward to this.
Sorry, we're a bit behind schedule.

Istad. I'm getting my boys home, right?

- We're working on it non-stop.
- And that means?

We don't know when they're coming home.
I know as much as you do.

And you think it's better for
the Prime Minister to explain it?

- Don't judge me until you know the facts.
- Istad, we need to get started.

I hold you personally responsible
for the fate of my soldiers.

- We'll discuss this privately afterwards.
- Prime Minister, everyone should hear.

We don't have any secrets, do we?

OCCUPIED

Excuse me. They're waiting.

Honorable members...

I'm happy to introduce
Acting Prime Minister Anita Rygh.

She'll make an announcement on behalf
of the government and military leadership.

Here we are.

Honorable members.

As you see, it is I,
and not the Director of Defense -

- who will inform you of the situation
about the Norwegian soldiers in Russia.

But before that, I want to give -

- a personal message to Coast Guard
Commander Reidar Ryengen.

He himself asked for this assembly.

I know that you and the
Director of Defense know one another well.

But that gives you no right
to break military protocol.

Istad is your boss.

He is greatly respected in my government
and will play an important role there.

You and everyone in this hall
are subject to his authority.

Onto the soldiers
imprisoned in Russia.

The soldiers that you call "yours".

They are just as much mine and ours.

We hope that you're the only one
here asking questions -

- about the government's and your boss'
willingness to have them extradited.

Remember this the next time you
notice your feelings taking over.

The negotiations with the Russians
are difficult -

- because these six soldiers
from your branch -

- acted without the knowledge
of their superiors.

The consequences of their actions
were not only a change in government.

But it also put the Norwegian people
in great danger.

So I'm happy to continue
to live in a country -

- where there is
a government and politicians -

- who say what the military should do,
and not the other way around.

RUSSIAN HEADQUARTERS

Have a seat.

- How long ago?
- At least a week.

- Give me Sidorova.
- Okay.

It should be possible
to get him sent home.

The first soldier to come home
will not be dead.

No one can know about this before
the others are released. Understood?

Sidorova isn't available.

- The Intelligence Director.
- If you want to keep this secret...

...it's best that only
the two of us know about it.

We have reason to believe
that the military leadership -

- has greater loyalty to
Jesper Berg's group than you.

Maybe the intelligence
contains valuable information.

THE FACULTY OF LAW

Many are experiencing relatives
and friends being detained.

Not because they did something wrong,
but because they thought about doing it.

In such times of political pressure,
"Access to Justice" is essential.

That one can promote one's agenda.

That one can be heard. Yes?

Yes, I agree that "Access to Justice"
is a central problem.

But one should take a closer look
at those outsiders.

- Can you elaborate on that?
- It's a tricky question.

Do the Russians in Norway
have enough protection in the courts?

So the Russians are a weak group
of outsiders?

- In certain cases, yes.
- Do you have concrete examples?

Three Russian workers were killed and
several injured during the Melkøya attack.

Do you think the people affected
are safe under the rule of law?

They're holding our soldiers
prisoner in Russia.

That's what I mean.
We side automatically with the Norwegians.

Therefore, it's our task as the judiciary
to protect the other party.

I've brought a few things.

Do you want to go home, Faysal?
I can get you home.

Who gave the order for the operation?
Was it someone in the Coast Guard?

I don't know who the order came from.

Only Geir was allowed to know.

You and Geir were close, right?

Not that close.
He was in charge of the boat.

So you have no idea
who gave the order?

I just did what I was told.

Don't be afraid.
I'll get you home.

You're never getting me out of here.

- Eknes is dead.
- The government will hide it.

- Should we give it to the press?
- Yes, right away.

[Geir Eknes is dead]

The Norwegian nation is eternally
grateful to Lieutenant Eknes.

He gave his life for Norway's freedom.

Let us be reminded
that once again -

- there is a foreign power in our country
with weapon in hand.

Now we must ask ourselves:
what do we do about it?

No, the preliminary autopsy report
is unambiguous.

Lieutenant Geir Eknes died of gunshot
wounds he received in Melkøya.

But what about the other soldiers?
Can you say when we'll get them home?

No, that's something we're working on.
We'll soon get back to it.

THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT

- Hi. Hilde Djupvik?
- Yes.

- Lavie Kristensen.
- Nice to meet you.

I'm excited about
what you want to discuss.

I was at Faldet's lecture.

- Yeah, I wasn't so popular there.
- We think it was interesting.

Oh yeah?

I heard that you had a promising career
as a judge.

Yes, but that was before
my husband became the Director of PST.

Your conflicts of interest
aren't an issue for us.

What do you have in mind?

That we need help
to prepare a proposal -

- on free legal aid
for all the Russians in Norway.

Yes, but that could quickly result
in a kind of affirmative action.

If you wish to improve
the rights of Russians -

- I think there are other ways.

- Andrea?
- You're awake?

Hi. Yeah.

- What are you up to?
- This is actually job-related.

Is it something you can tell me about,
Mr. Secret Man?

No.

- Do you know what happened to me today?
- Hold that thought. It's just Buan.

Hi. We can log you into the same server
that Vold was on.

Yeah, I'm online.

PST HEADQUARTERS

- Coffee?
- Gladly.

The Coast Guard's ships
from zone 7 -

- have blocked the fairway
in Drøbaksundet since 6:00 this morning.

This has crippled all traffic
to and from the Port of Oslo.

Several ships have instead
gone to the port in Drammen.

The traffic to the capital increases.

We haven't gotten any explanation from
the government or the Director of Defense.

But with us, direct from Sortland,
we have Commander Reider Ryengen.

How would you explain
this maneuver from the Coast Guard?

This is no maneuver directed
by the Coast Guard -

- but a spontaneous reaction
to our men in Russian captivity.

As you see behind me, the Coast Guard's
boats are blocking the entrance -

- to Norway's busiest port.
Will you order the crew to withdraw?

I will only order them to
keep their cool.

But none of us is served by a situation
where my soldiers commit insubordination.

I know my people.
The only thing they want -

- is for the government to fulfill
its promise to return our soldiers safely.

- But you agree that...
- Thanks.

If the rebellion spreads,
will Parliament sit and watch?

- When will they throw out the government?
- Yeah, but the Coast Guard isn't enough.

Most of the military looks to the Navy
as scouts on the sea.

- Jesper, we've started the meeting!
- I'm just going to shower first.

- 289.
- 686.

You need to take action now.

What's the mission?

Can we dress up a group
as Defense's special commandos?

Only the most experienced.

I'll take care of it.

- We must attack a Russian target in Oslo.
- Understood.

How quickly does it need to happen?

As soon as possible.

- What's going on?
- I heard someone speaking Norwegian.

- What should I do?
- Try to become part of the team.

- Which server on you are?
- The same as Vold. EU-337.

Report it to Djupvik. Now.

Should I talk to them?

Yes.

I have a message
from the leadership.

- You sure they were talking Norwegian?
- 100%.

- Were they just kids?
- No, I recorded it here.

Let's hear it.

- We must attack a Russian target in Oslo.
- Understood.

- Did you warn the police?
- Yes.

They're establishing checkpoints
near Russian targets.

Maja, Grandma and Grandpa
are coming.

Maja!

- Hi, Grandma!
- Come here.

- Hi.
- How have you been?

- She's been waiting for you.
- It was chaos along the fjord today.

- Because of the ship blockade?
- Yeah.

- Do you regret selling the restaurant?
- No, it's going well at the moment.

Maja, I brought the first articles
that Dad wrote as a journalist.

- Thanks.
- That's unbelievably nice.

It makes me happy to read them.

Hi, Boris. What's going on?

No problems. The police are there
because of some terrorist thing.

- No problems.
- No doubt. Have a good one.

- Hello.
- Hello.

Bente!

You were caught
in a car full of explosives.

Whose car was it?

The GPS was programmed for
the Dogma Hotel and Bente Norum.

- Many Russian guests there.
- He hasn't said a thing?

- Are the uniforms real?
- Yeah, they're real.

But only one of them was in Defense.
So our theory -

- is they wanted the Russians to believe
Defense is fighting for the other side.

Another! Another!

Minnikov is working. He's never home.

Keep singing. What was the rest?

Cheers!

Kolja!

- I can't. I'm only drinking wine.
- Kolja...

Okay, we'll leave the poor guy alone.

- Cheers!
- Cheers!

- Do you want a cup of tea?
- I have one.

- What are you working on?
- A legal opinion.

Whether Russian citizens need
better legal protection in Norway.

You asked me the same thing yesterday.

- Did I?
- Yes.

- Hi.
- Hi!

-Annette Kleven.
-Bente Norum.

- Wine importer.
- You delivered the case of wine?

- Yes.
- Have a seat.

- Did you like the wine?
- As you see, we think it was good.

I know someone you know.
Sigmund Haakerud.

Yeah. He was my son's soccer coach.

- Do you have children on the team?
- No.

I don't think we'll switch suppliers now.
If that changes, I'll contact you.

You have a guest at the hotel
named Konstantin Minnikov.

We want you to keep an eye on him.

Who is "we"?

You know that.

We want you to copy
Minnikov's phone onto this.

It's easy. Put it on top of his,
turn it on, enable it, and the job's done.

Listen here. I'm running a hotel.
I don't spy on the guests.

Hey!

Actually Minnikov...
I think you have an interest in him.

He's probably the one who ordered
the killing of your husband.

I want nothing more to do with you.

I understand. But Free Norway
needs your help. That's how it is.

Wouldn't bringing the soldiers home
set a dangerous precedent?

We can't give the impression of weakness.

The situation only serves Jesper Berg.
Does Moscow want that?

Moscow won't support a government
that is doomed to fail.

Maybe our Anita can be taught.

Anita doesn't even have support
from her own people.

We can step up and support her.
It would be best for everyone.

And if she can't do it?
Will you take responsibility for that?

- How soon does it need to happen?
- As soon as possible.

- Do you recognize that voice?
- We need to strike while the iron is hot.

- What's that he's saying?
- A commando.

We believe that Free Norway activists
are using the game to communicate.

And that this is one of the leaders.

And why are you coming
to me with this?

We've analyzed the voice.

And it's similar to Jesper Berg.

You know him well.

Yeah.

I've seen Jesper play video games,
but I don't know what they look like.

I want you to prioritize
bringing the soldiers home.

The Justice Department has a solution
that the Russians are going along with.

- Thanks for the food.
- We'll clean this up.

- So...
- Did you finance the hotel...

- ...with help from the restaurant?
- No, not all of it.

- Can I watch tv?
- Sure. Two of us bought it together.

- An investor?
- No, the two of us own it equally.

- Who is it?
- Her name is Zoya.

- Zoya? Is she Russian?
- Yeah.

Did you buy a hotel with a Russian?

I thought the point to selling
the restaurant was that you -

- would distance yourself
from the Russians.

The point was to invest in something new.

- To earn more money?
- Jorunn...

Thomas was killed by a Russian.

I don't understand you.

He hasn't even been dead a year
and you buy an apartment and car and...

Now you've gone and bought a hotel
with a Russian.

- I thought nothing in the world...
- You need to fucking stop!

Not all Russians are murderers.
I have to take care of myself and Maja.

I can't blame a whole country...

...because Thomas is dead.

Jorunn, don't...
Is she leaving now?

Jorunn...

- Please.
- You could show a little more respect.

- Will you have a seat?
- No thanks, I'm fine standing.

It was nice that you took
time out of your day.

You know well that the Director of Defense
asked me to deliver my resignation.

So I have plenty of time.

I had imagined that with
the soldiers coming home now -

- you would be interested in being
the one to welcome them?

Yes...

- Hi.
- Hi.

- I got a job offer today.
- Oh?

Yeah.

In the Justice Department,
as a special advisor.

Yeah, I heard that.

It's close, but we can make it happen
if we're a bit practical.

Congratulations.

- I thought you were skeptical.
- You saved everyone.

The Coast Guard soldiers, the government.
Even me.

Thank you.

Istad, we're now in a position
to appoint a Minister of Defense.

Yes, I've supported you through
all of this, as you know.

Yes, but I can't have a Defense Minister
who doesn't have Defense's trust.

I need someone who can guarantee
the military is loyal to the government.

- And who would that be?
- Ryengen.

You can't be fucking serious.

A guy who challenged you in public.

I got his crew home. He'll remember that.
I'm sorry, Istad.

But I have complete trust in you
as Director of Defense.

Will you be a hero?

Don't quite know?
Sorry, bad pun.

According to Jung's hero psychology,
we have a heap of archetypes inside of us.

We find them in
all the fairytales and stories.

The most important archetype is the hero.
The one who wins against evil.

Like Jesus,
Superman, and Askeladden.

The one who gets the Princess
and half the occupied kingdom.

But you know what?

Fuck the hero, fuck Luke Skywalker,
and fuck the Prime Minister -

- fuck the elite Russian soldier,
fuck the resistance, and fuck my brother.

How many heroes are killed
in pursuit of heroism?

Only heroes need a weapon,
because they need to protect someone.

But the hero doesn't know
that he's the other archetypes, too:

the loser, the traitor, and the fool.

The hero Jesper Berg fooled my brother
into going on a quest.

They're fooling others out there
who never should have gone.

The brother confirmed it.
Jesper ordered the operation.

- Is that still online?
- No. The brother was under surveillance.

But we can't guarantee
that no one saw it.

So we have to arrest Jesper now.

- Do you need my approval?
- No, we got it from the Attorney General.

We understand that this can be
a bit difficult for you.

Can we keep the press away
from the arrest?

Yes. I talked to
the Swedish bodyguards.

- I'm expecting two different replies.
- You haven't heard from any of them?

- No, but I have a meeting at 5PM.
- Ahh.

[The power is out!]

Ryengen has said yes
to being Minister of Defense.

Yeah, then call Istad.

Ask what he thinks about
being passed over.

- Okay.
- I just need to take this call.

I don't care about that.
Yes, but say it's important.

Where is Jesper Berg?

No, I'll wait.
