All language subtitles for Gidseltagningen S01E01

I'm curious.

What would you do if I untied you right now
and set you free.

Free?
- Yes. If I told you you can go, what would you do?

I'd find someone to take me to the border.
- Of course.

Then I'd go home...

I'd contact the Secret Service and
I would tell them that I can lead them here.

To this place and the 4 other places
where you're keeping the hostages.

And I would help them find you.

And I would help them kill you.

Really?

You would do that?

I like that.

Op, op, op... breathe!

Breathe. Ok.

What would you really do?

I would go home...

...and live the most normal life in the world.
- Exactly.

I think you would do that, but...

...it's too late for that now.

Let's welcome Philip Nørgaard.

Six months as a hostage
and he's here, ready to start back.

How does it feel to be kidnapped?

One thing we Danes are not good at
is celebrating our heroes.

Philip is a hero!

I'm proud to have him as a friend
and representing Denmark.

DAY 1

Hi, can I have an American?

Thanks. That's fine.

Hi.

On the good side, I got time to think
about what I need to do.

Do you hear me?
Hello?

Arriving on track 2
the train for Vanløse.

Good morning.
- Morning.

Already up?
- Yes.

Are you leaving?
- I don't know.

You don't know?
- I haven't decided yet.

Ok, how do I make you stay?
- Tell me what that was.

What was what?
- Whatever woke you up like that.

A nightmare... I can't remember.
- Always the same one I guess.

What you mean?
- You wake up like that every time I'm here... 21 times.

What are you talking about?

You slept here 21 times?
- 22 now, I just told you.

I don't know what that was
but it's not a recurring thing.

Surely not 21 times.
- 22.

What do you want exactly?
- Honesty, to begin with.

You think I'm not being honest?
- I know you're not.

I told you I've been held hostage
and it's been hell.

A therapist even made me relive the experience...

...and it worked, I cried and wept and moved forward.

Can't we move forward too, you and me?

You really wanna fight over this?

Yes, I do.

I can take anything,
I'm prepared to fight for this.

The only thing I can't take is lies.

You had 22 chances.

It takes too much time to fire back on, dammit.

It's good to see you anyway.
- It was nice of you to pick me up.

We got an alarm in the second tunnel.
Will you check it right away?

What's up?

211 is stuck between two stations,
there's people on the tracks.

Close tunnel 2.
We need an eye on 211.

Have you read this?
- You think it's good?

Yes.
- Really?

So?
- So what?

Will you publish it?
- No.

You won't...?
- No and nobody will.

Why not?
- Readers won't pick a book from Naja Toft.

And who wants to read Naja Toft,
doesn't want that kind of book.

You may have written the first book ever
with no possible readers.

If it's good, they'll read it.
- People love you already... why waste a year over this?

'Cause I think it's important.
- Some grad hippie will cover it eventually.

I write better than grad hippies.

Naja.
- Come over right away, something big is going on.

Ok, I'll be right there.

Will you lock?
- Ok.

It's called "soul-sucker".

It's a small wasp.

"Ampulex dementor". Gets it's nickname
from Harry Potter's Dementors.

It releases a toxin in the prey's stomach
and turns it into a zombie.

It carries around a roach like a dog on a leash.
- Nice revenge.

Then it eats the prey alive.
- Sweet...

Hi, Philip.
- Sorry, Elizabeth... I wasn't able to kill him.

Can't say he didn't try.
- Philip!

SP, what's up?
- We're picking you up.

TTF* has been activated.
(*Anti- Terrorism)

Dad, I have to go.
- Thanks for the company.

Thank you.

They seized a subway train.
- When?

6.37, 30 minutes ago.

The subway has been cleared,
a task force is there.

Gunfire?
- No record of casualties, there's people in the new section though.

A station still not operating?
- Marmorkirken.

How many hijackers and hostages?
- We don't know yet.

Cameras?
- Six, but the hard disk has been removed.

The video footage is coming over.

A terrorist attack is taking place
in the Danish capital Copenhagen.

A terrorist attack in Copenhagen...

The task force has sealed a large area.
Police and ambulances keep rushing in.

This way.

Philip.
- Hans.

It's serious.
- I know.

This is what we created TTF for.
- I'm ready.

Can I have your attention?

For the ones who don't know me, I'm Hans Hejndorf,
chief of Security and Intelligence.

This is Philip Nørgaard, chief of TTF.

So, when you hear "terror",
Philip is the one you'll be referring to.

From now on, you're all gonna refer to Philip.

He'll take final decisions.
Whoever's not up to it, will be replaced.

Is that clear?
- Roger that.

It's gonna be a tough day,
so be careful.

Situation. Daniel?
- 20 men operative in 10 minutes, other 20 in 1 hour.

Scouts?
- Clausen and I lead the team, we spoke with the subway workers.

We checked an abandoned van.

We found a bag full of cellphones,
surely from the hostages.

Negotiators? Garnov?
- They're all in stand-by.

4 people. 3 of us and the third on his way.
Hejndorf asked for Jung, Andreasen...

That's good.
What about the train?

We have a video from Kgs Nytorv.
There's 3 of them, all got on at the same moment.

They all carried a bag.
- How many passengers?

We counted 13
but there might be 2 more.

So, we're dealing with 3 hijackers and 13/15 hostages.

Subway situation?
- All trains have been stopped.

Passengers have been rerouted to the nearest stations
by the subway personnel. - Good.

It's all for now.

Keep a line open with the subway company.
I need every map available.

I'll inform the Minister of Justice,
I need every relevant info before that.

First things: who we're dealing with
and the hostages situation. Move.

The bag looks 80 x 25,
it can carry 25 kilos.

Louise, you're here...?
- Hejndorf put me on the team.

Of course.
- Where are they?

Outside. I'll show you.

About this morning...
- We knew it could happen.

It was a flirt and it's over.
I can keep things separated.

Philip! We have the hijackers on the line!

Whenever you want.
- Go ahead.

He hung up.

Good. Call me if they make contact again.

What the fuck!
- You can say that...

Might be a publicity stunt?
Hidden cameras?

Hidden cameras?
- Yes... you believe they're terrorists?

I'm afraid so.

I still don't understand
what happened on the train.

There was probably something on the tracks,
to stop the train.

But even before that,
those men were ready with guns.

I thought it was over.
Where do you think we are?

I think we crossed to a different subway line.
Might be the one still under construction.

You think we went far?
- I don't think so.

1 km maybe.
- Then we're still in midtown.

You think they know, up there?
- Yes... or they will soon.

They'll send someone for us.
- For sure.

What really worries me is that
it all seemed very well organized.

They knew where to go,
they had cases with all they needed inside.

These men know what they're doing,
they didn't plan this overnight.

The police set up a road block
in front of Marmorkirken station.

No one is making any statement
but Philip Nørgaard has just arrived.

He's considered one of the best
in hostage situations...

...so it's clear there are people held hostage in Copenhagen.
Here's our live feed from Marmorkirken.

It's ridiculous!
- We do a presentation on Philip Nørgaard.

We're telling the same stuff as everyone else
along with the same images.

That's what everyone has.
- The biggest event in 100 years and we do "copy-paste"!

What do you want?
- If there's hostages, who are they?

Their names?
Their families?

The police is keeping it confidential.
- Then send someone over!

I have no one to send grab a coffee
with an old cop friend.

You got me.
- I need you here.

Right now, we need a face people are familiar with.

You're one of these!

It's Naja.
- Hi, I don't really have time now.

It'll only taker a second,
I need something other than Twitter right now...

I can't help you.
Call the press coordinator.

Fuck you!

It's just ridiculous!

Stand-by studio.

Naja, we're opening with you in 20 seconds.

Philip Nørgaard.
- Havdrup. - Frydstrøm.

Wilden.

Ebbe Møller, from the ministry of Justice.
Anne Gornstein, National Police Commissioner.

Did they make any demands yet?
- Yes, 4 million euros. 30 million crowns.

For each hostage?
- For all of them.

Two million crowns per hostage.
Can it be done?

The Navy paid 13 million crowns for Eddie and Søren,
the hostages in Somalia.

Daniel Rye was released in Siria for 15 million crowns.

The amount must remain secret,
it could compromise negotiations.

Why the subway?
- It draws more attention.

The city shuts down, attention is maximum.

But they can't get out of there.
- And we can't go in.

It's easy to control.
It doesn't feel like a suicide mission.

We don't know their escape plan
but we're sure they have one.

The Parliament is abuzz, the PM
has a press conference in one hour.

They gonna ask who we're dealing with, so...
what do we say?

We don't know.

ISIS? Al Qaeda?

Maybe... maybe not.
- No suspects at all?

All we know is they speak English
and demand 4 million euros.

Are we expecting other attacks?
- Nothing points to that but we're on our toes everywhere.

Hey, could you give me that box?

Thanks.

Looks like they also have a first aid kit.

What's your name?
- Marie.

Where are you from?

A small town in Sweden,
Katrineholm.

Katrineholm?

I know that... I had a lot of fun in Katrineholm.

You can't have fun in Katrineholm.
- Really?

You've been here long?
- About one year.

What do you do?
- I go to nursing school.

Nursing school?
Could you...?

Get down.

I don't know if I'm gonna continue
my nursing studies.

You should, you're good at putting Band-Aids.

Thanks.

Say... what do you think
they're gonna do to us?

You think they'll kill us?

No.
- No?

I've seen videos where they cut off people's heads.

They were clear about it.

They gave us water, blankets and a first aid kit.

They need us alive to get what they want.

It'll be alright.

Thanks again.

News?
- A few ideas to get down there.

Is it safe?
- Too many unknowns.

Not knowing the structure
we'll have to orientate after we're in.

Fumbling around will only endanger the hostages
for too long.

It's not gonna end well.
- What do you think

We need views of the place.

There's a camera in the elevator.
- Surely they know too.

Right, but look at here.
Wires going up to the main station panel.

Some are hidden,
I could place a camera on one of the pipes.

This works at 360° and records sounds.
We should be able to go in and out.

Ok, let's do it.

It's still unknown who the hijackers are.

Hostages are trapped in a
non operating line that goes around town.

The entire system has been shut down.

Ready to go in.

Anytime you're ready.

Now.

They saw us!

Hidden number.

Karin, get over here!

Karin!

Where's Karin.
- On a meeting, I'm the producer.

What's your name?
- Claus.

We have a new plan, Claus.

Get my Skype account ready
and we'll go live with an interview.

Here says "international comments first".

Change of plan.
- Since when?

Now.
- Who...? - Me.

I can't just change everything like that.

Yes you can.
- We have a schedule...

You'll only skip a small part.
Open the line, we start in 2 minutes and 50 secs.

You want me to kick your ass?
Is the mike on?

My name is Monika.
- I'm Bodil.

I used to be a teacher,
I'm retired now.

I'm Denise, from Amager,
currently unemployed.

I'm Leon,
I'm in early retirement.

I have a foreign girlfriend,
that's why I always travel.

Yes... I'm Marie
and I'm attending nursing school.

I'm Swedish but my father is Danish.

Joachim.
- I'm Adel.

I'm Silas, from Funen island.
I live here now.

I'm a DJ, co-owner...
- Excuse me, this is a funny game, but...

Let him finish.
- I'm done.

Shouldn't we talk about escaping?
- Escaping?

We'll escape when the police gets here.
- Police?

They'll cut our heads off
before the cops make a move.

What's your name again?
- Joachim.

Stay quiet, Joachim.
- If they're islamics...

He just told you to stay quiet!

Joachim... frightening people doesn't help.
- Shall we wait till they get us one at a time?

It's a dark day for Denmark.

Our fears have become real,
terror has taken over our Country.

In a still non-operating subway line,
near Marmorkirken...

...there are people held hostages
by an indefinite number of kidnappers.

We're the only channel
broadcasting live from the very place.

We are sharing with one of the hostages
the worst nightmare of her life.

I'm Naja Toft, who's on the other side?
- Marie.

Hi, Marie. I can't even imagine
what you're going through right now.

How's the situation down there?
- We are fine... no one's hurt.

What's your emotional state right now?
- It is... good, it's that...

We have food and water, we can use the bathroom...
people are in a good mood.

How many of you? - What...?
- I mean hostages. - 15.

Do you know what these people want, Marie?

They said they want money,
I don't know how much.

Look at this!

They're working hard to pull you out of there.

I just want to go home.

I know you're not supposed to pay terrorists...

...and they'll sure ask for a lot...

...but there's 15 of us down here...

...and some of us don't...

I just wanna go home...
