01x05 - Auf der Jagd

[bunniefuu]

from different countries.

Why did we leave?

Nobody lives in our
hometown anymore.

The flooding. There was
no point in staying.

The heatwaves. It
became unbearable.

Forest fires.

We lost our home.

My family ended up
in a refugee camp.

We can't imagine
what it's like...

to come from where so many
people living here come from.

The nice thing is
they want you here.

It's great to be part of
an ambitious experiment.

A chance to show the
world the way it could be.

A chance to show we can
create and sustain a world

for future generations.

Our community is run entirely
from local hydro and wind power.

Waste material is recycled,
composted or converted to energy.

Solar panels on the roofs.

Rainfall is gathered and stored
to reduce our water consumption.

Our buildings are all made
from natural, local materials.

All vehicles are electric.

Public transport and bicycles are
available everywhere free of charge.

In just 20 years, we have repopulated
vast areas of the surrounding forests.

Concordia AI tracks
local species

and shares the data with universities
and scientists around the world.

We've helped lower the carbon
footprint of nearby communities.

In Concordia, we believe a better
world is worth striving for.

We believe in Concordia
we can lead by example.

Together we believe
we can affect change.

We believe we can make
the world a better place.

For our children and
our children's children.

- Everything okay?
- Yeah.

Did you know he was planning
to go see Edvin Claesson?

Peter was?

He never made it,
but he arranged it.

First time they would
have spoken in 20 years.

All this happening now with
Peter, Oliver, I just...

I know. I know.

Just as we move past one
tragedy, another strikes.

It's not something you expect
to happen in your own backyard.

Your own home.

Home.

The remote drive that Mathilde
gave you, do you still have it?

I do.

- Do you think I can take a look at it?
- Can I ask why?

I feel like we might have
overlooked something.

Well, the case is closed.

If it can help find
the Faceless...

What are you thinking?

I mean, we... we focused so much on
Oliver's home life in the real world,

but the video game world was just
as real to him as anywhere else.

You think we missed
something in the game?

- I'm not sure, but I want to check.
- A.J.'s already asked for it back.

I can bring it back to him later,
if that makes it easier for you.

- And can you come here?
- Yeah, sure.

What time? I'll need
to let Alex know.

I need a few hours. I'm still
looking over my case notes.

- I'll leave it on the table for you.
- Thank you.

No, no, it's okay.

I'll be there as
soon as possible.

Okay, thanks.

I'm sorry for the trouble.

Alex, what's going on?

Your mother, she... she
had another episode.

She slipped out the door.

f*ck. I thought
Clive and Lydia...

They didn't hear.

They didn't realise she was gone
until they called her for breakfast.

Apparently, they found her down the
street, sitting on someone's stoop.

I'm gonna go there and
bring her back home, okay?

You know, living somewhere else,

with people she's not used
to, is making it worse.

- I'll go.
- No, no. You need to finish up here.

No, it's too much. She's
getting worse. You need help.

We can talk about what
happens next once you're done.

Can you just help me
pack up a bag for Talon?

He can stay here with
me. You've got enough on.

It's only a few
more days, anyway.

How are you gonna manage him

and everything else?

There's support here. Plus, having
him around Mum when she's...

I'm serious, Alex.

Okay.

- You sure?
- I'm sure.

- I'll be back in one minute.
- Okay.

Hello?

Hold on.

You okay?

We're almost there.

Okay, here we are.

Et voilà.

Wait. Here you go.

Yes.

Talon.

Yes, right.

What about this one? Hm?

My beautiful Thea.

You're a kind man, Albert.

It'll be good when we're through
all this. How long are you staying?

Juliane asked me to stay through
to Peter's memorial service.

I want to organise meetings
with investors while I'm here.

You should be there.

Run point, take
questions, comments.

I'm sorry. It's Alex.

- Take it. See you in the council room.
- Be right there.

- Hey, Alex.
- Hey.

- How's it going over there?
- She's doing well.

Had some food, watching
that soap she likes.

Northsiders. Makes
her nostalgic.

That's the one, yes.

I cannot understand anything
they say, to be honest.

She'll be complaining about the
actors not doing the accent right.

Exactly.

So...

All good on your side?

Yeah, fine, just had
some food with Fatemah.

- Give her my best.
- I will.

I think you should
come back with Mum.

Why?

I might have to stay
here a bit longer.

It'll be easier here.

You won't need a babysitter
for Mum if you want to go out.

It'd be nice for all of
us to be together, but...

would it be good
for your mother?

I mean, she misses you and
Talon as well, of course.

So come.

- You sure?
- I'm sure.

Alright.

Marco, what have you got?

I intercepted a coded message

from one of those dark web
boards the Faceless use.

And? What was it?

Took me a moment,
but I deciphered it.

It's coordinates to
a location in Berlin.

It'll be a dead drop to physically get
a message to someone on the ground.

No digital trail.

- Got anyone on the ground?
- Yes. But they're not as good as me.

I'd have gone myself, but
I'm trying to fly less.

- You know, the world's on fire.
- Very considerate of you.

Yeah.

Why did we need to chat
privately about this?

I'm just kidding. Chill.

- So, where's your base?
- In Spiral?

No, your base in Concordia.
Obviously Spiral.

Charming. My base
is the Ice Pass.

What's going on in the Ice Pass?

Yeah, not much is going
on there. I just mod it.

Mod?

- My base is the Ice Pass.
- What's going on in the Ice Pass?

Yeah, not much is...

- I've got someone at the dead drop.
- Keep your distance.

I'm in pursuit.

Hey, don't rush it.

It's a note.

They'll ditch it once they
memorise it, so be ready.

sh*t, she's burning it.

Get it, get it! Quick, quick.

- Did they get a visual?
- No. They had to make a choice.

- The message was more important?
- In the moment, yes.

We don't know if the operative
is a stand-in or Faceless member.

The message is real.

- And yet we only got half of it.
- We got enough.

The message was numerical, but Marco
realised within it was an ISSN number

used to identify publications.

This was for a
Hamburg-based paper.

Within the code, he also deciphered
a specific page number and date.

It led him to the classified
section and to an ad

looking for a local cleaner
to start work immediately.

And?

The number on the ad
had a Kopwitz code.

A local Hamburg cleaner
ad for work in Kopwitz?

Exactly.

You think it's
instructions for operatives

to focus on Kopwitz
rather than Concordia?

Yes.

Adrian is closing in on the
Faceless operations base in Leipzig.

He's confident he can get to them
before they enact further plans.

Let's connect him to Marco.

If anything comes up
online, he can feed him in.

Can we connect
Hanna with Adrian?

It makes sense for all our
assets to work together.

We'll get on that.

How's Fatemah handling
the Faceless attack?

- Rug's been pulled out from under her.
- She's been in this game a long time.

The rug's firmly wedged in.

But they're more
determined than most.

Well, determined
only gets you so far.

I'm glad you'll all be here for
the launch. You deserve that.

Your family. Aren't
they coming back?

Alex is bringing my mother,
so we'll be back together.

Did Fatemah mention that?

I didn't think I told her yet.

- Thea, do you have your remote drive?
- No. I'll get it to you later.

As soon as possible, please.
A.J.'s been chasing me for it.

Thanks.

Well, I better run.
I'll see you later.

If you're watching this...

I'm probably already gone.

It started when Elodie had...

asked me to find something
for the Faceless.

She said that Juliane and the
leaders were dirty or corrupt.

I thought she meant tax
evasion or rigged financials.

The alert came to me when
I was on shift at HQ.

It was an approved
private setting:

Dr Blom's office.

That isn't for general review.

The procedure is for a supervisor to
check with a doctor who's present.

To gauge if a full
review is necessary.

So I sent Peter that
text and I got in.

Well, this is unexpected.

Well, it shouldn't be.

The referendum results?



No landslide, but...

we did it.

Not only have we proven the concept,
what Concordia can bring to the world,

but to convince Germany...

It's a beacon for others.

If Germany can do it,
can embrace it, then...

Congratulations. You
worked so hard for it.

We have, Peter.

What is it?

I...

I can't celebrate now.

I'm sorry.

I can't do this, Juliane.

I feel like I am drowning
under the weight of it.

Peter, please.

There must be a way to
tell the truth without...

sinking the whole project.

You know there isn't.

- I can't keep carrying on like this.
- Peter, stop.

Why?

How do you think
people will see it?

Well, we can explain.

If we deliver a statement that
explains that I was treating Jesper,

that I was wrong not
to quell his thoughts.

And you think people will buy
that? That it was just a mistake?

- How are you going to survive this?
- Maybe I don't care about surviving it.

You should have told me

when I first came
to you about him.

Told you about the things he
was saying, thinking of doing.

- You should have told me to report it.
- I wasn't the one treating him.

You're not innocent in this.

In any of this.

In the lives we...

- I did it for you.
- No, Peter.

You did it for yourself.

Leave this be, Peter. Do
not make this about you.

- Mathilde?
- Hey, Isabelle, we just got an alert.

- For who?
- For you.

- Is everything alright?
- Yeah. No, sorry, I'm fine.

Why are you in
Thea's hotel room?

I asked to work from here.

You're sure you're alright?

Yeah, sure, I'm fine. I'm...

I guess I'm just stressed.

Okay, Isabelle. Just checking.

Alright, thanks.

I didn't know what
to do or where to go.

But now you know, too...

if something happens.

I want to have a base camp. Please
can you contact Davy 504 in Italy?

Hey!

Let me out!

Why the f*ck did you lock me in?

- To keep you safe.
- Safe?

You locked me up like an animal.

Do you have any idea who
we're up against, Elodie?

Well, let me ask you something.

Did you k*ll Oliver Miller?

Because I didn't.
No one here did.

So, you tell me. Who had
the motivation to k*ll?

What do you think they're gonna do
to us, do to you, if they find us?

They'll use everything at
their disposal to stop us

and we cannot let
that happen, alright?

That's what we all, you
included, signed up for.

I didn't sign up
for being locked up.

I'm just as f*cked
if they catch us.

I didn't want a w*r.

Did you find out about my dad?

You didn't even try, did you?

The one thing I asked after
everything I sacrificed.

You're not the only one
who's made sacrifices.

Far from it.

God, get the f*cking
VPN working now, please.

Okay.

Okay, so where do
you want to go?

You want to go to that
park we went to last week?

- No?
- No.

- That was a nice place.
- No.

So maybe we can go to...

- I want some ice cream.
- We can go and get some ice cream.

Ow, f*ck.

Come on.

Oh my gosh, that is filthy.

Okay, let's see.

God, that is...

Marco, after this, we need
a break from each other.

Couldn't agree more. Look...

I heard back from my
guy and you were right.

Cameras, mics, spyware on all devices.
Everything was being recorded.

What are you gonna do?

I'm supposed to be meeting Thea.

Me, too.

Coming here, you know you'll be on
camera. That's part of the contract.

But at home, on the outside?

No such contract exists.

This is my husband's phone
in our flat in London,

infected with spyware to listen
to our calls and read messages.

To spy on my mother,
my son, my husband.

The same spyware was also
found on his laptop, our TV,

our smart speakers.

There were cameras all around
the apartment, microphones, too.

Don't worry. I had
someone remove them all.

But, of course, you knew that.

Sorry, what are you
suggesting here?

We had to know.

Whether you were on our side.

I mean truly on our side or
if this was just a job to you,

because it's more
than that to us.

Much more.

- I work for Fatemah.
- You still represented a variable.

One that we can hopefully predict,
rely on, but still a variable.

And given your outsized role,

if our expectations of you had been
wrong and you were not on our side,

if you were more
foe than friend...

the damage you could have done.

We couldn't watch you
here without permission,

which the court would
never have granted.

So, your home, your husband...

It was the only way.

Thea, you spend your
life analysing risk.

Do I really need to convince you
that you were a potential risk to us?

Was I a risk to you, too?

No.

Never.

We constantly make decisions to
protect each other. You know that.

Would you have done it
differently? Tell me honestly.

Would I have done what you did?

No, I wouldn't.

But that doesn't mean
I don't see the logic.

It's harsh. It's cold.

But I know how much
you have invested

in this mental, emotional,
financial investment.

I don't have that.

Not yet.

We're 24 hours from the launch.
Let's just get this over the line.

Hey, come on, let's
go for a walk.

Spicy...

mild.

I had to be careful,
but I checked on him.

Your dad.

He's recovering. Still in
hospital, but recovering.

- He's gonna be okay?
- Yeah. I think so.

Thank you. Thank you.

- Don't mention it, though... to Leon.
- Yeah.

Once this is over, I will find a
way for you to speak to him, okay?

But I won't be able to see
him, is what you're saying?

- He's never going to let me go.
- Of course he is.

It's for your own
safety, Elodie.

Next time you go out,
take me with you, please.

You know I would love to.

But you just have to
trust me a little longer.

A little? Okay?

We should go back,
though. Come on.

Yep?

- You're keeping her locked up?
- So?

What do you want me to say?

We can't afford the kind of
mistakes she's already made, Tessa.

It was a burner phone.

We wouldn't tolerate that
mistake from anyone else.

She's a liability.

I will take
responsibility for her.

So, what then? We can't
keep her in there forever.

Elodie was always a means to an end.
Don't turn it into something it's not.

She's more than that. She
committed herself to us.

No, she committed herself to you,
which helped us get to Oliver.

She's not your concern anymore.

I need to know that
you'll keep her safe.

Of course.

Yeah.

Hold on. I need your phone.
We're installing new encryptions.

We'll get it back to
you as soon as we can.

Thank you.

Oh f*ck.

You must be the Brit.
Noah said to expect you.

As flattering as "the Brit"
is, I prefer Adrian. Hi.

- Hanna Bremer. Nice to meet you.
- You, too.

This is Ulf Schrader,
my chief of staff.

So, you have news for us
on the threat to Kopwitz?

What is it?

There's been an update.

We think the threat is
not against Kopwitz.

Hanna, we think the threat
is against your life.

I saw it, Juliane.

- The footage that Oliver hacked.
- It's not what you think.

You and Peter in his office
discussing what he did.

What you allowed to happen.

I can explain if you'll let me.

Will you? Let me?

Peter and I had an affair.

When my husband was dying,

it helped me through my grief,

helped me keep my feet
on the ground for Noah.

During our time together, I
shared my dream with Peter

of a new town rising from
the ashes of the old.

A dream which I was
determined to see through,

despite my husband's death,

despite all the obstacles
thrown in my way.

When the affair ran its course on
my part, Peter tried to hold on.

And when Jesper came to him...

out of some tragic, misguided
notion that the way to win me back

was to give me what
I most wanted...

Peter encouraged the
boy's homicidal fantasies

thinking it could be a
catalyst to change the minds

of all those who
stood in our way.

I would like to believe

that Peter never thought
the boy could act on them.

But he did.

And I would like to believe...

I did everything I
could to dissuade him...

but I can't.

Noah doesn't know, Isabelle.

Please...

let me be the one to tell him.
