01x04 - Verrat

Post by bunniefuu »

Who's that?

Fred Simon.

CEO of Energie NRW.

He's responsible for coal power plants
staying online 12 years longer

than was previously announced.

He has a private jet,

lets his kids fly around the world.
- Kids?

Xaver, Leonie, Rosalie...

We'll only do this to someone
nobody will cry over.

Everyone has parents,
friends...

We won't do it to anyone
with kids.

Fine.

But our pool will be small.

I'm home.

Dominique.

It's me.

There... was a burglar.

Going through your stuff.

And I...

couldn't do anything.

I'm sorry
for leaving you alone.

Cool pic.

'LAST STAND':
CLIMATE SINNER LIST!

CLIMATE SINNERS BY RANK

Christoph,
do you have a sec?

It's a ranking.

Germany's top 100
climate sinners.

Number 1: Sepp Karlsberg.
No. 2: Gunter Hauge.

And a new deepfake.

We are the Last Stand.

My name is Sepp Karlsberg.

My extravagant lifestyle,

my private jets and yachts

have landed me at number 1
among Germany's top climate sinners.

Each of us is capable
of improving their climate ranking

and getting themselves removed
from the top 100.

But there's not
much time left.

Someone on this list
will soon die.

Otherwise,
you just won't get it.

Tick, tock, boom!

Wandler here.
Yes, I saw it.

I'm on my way.

We'll have to contact
this Karlsberg.

And all the others
on that list.

I wanted to tell you:

We'll change the world.
You're very special and awesome.

So are you.

You've got a backbone.

I'm just some guy.

I beg to differ.

That's 'cause you're different.
- Different how? In a good way?

I know who Rainman is.

I trailed her
the other day.

Her name is Susi Keupas.

But...
didn't she notice you?

I need to go to Yell again.

Why?

To take care of some stuff.

Bijan.
My son.

Where are we
on Rainman?

We're about to get access
to his account.

When will you have it?
- Won't be long. Anytime now.

How is Christoph Wandler
acting?

He's trying
to protect Krohn.

Why won't you let him
hand the case over.

We have to find
Benjamina Krohn.

Anna Krohn is the key.

She trusts
Christoph Wandler.

But he's biased.

It's absurd to let him
investigate his own family.

Sometimes the morally correct approach
proves useless.

This is about preventing
a t*rror1st attack.

We need to employ
all possible weapons.

Understand?
- I do, but...

Do your job.

Sit up straight.

I think
I've got something.

I accessed the Yell user database
and then

I created a mirror account
of Rainman.

I wrote to people about the t*rror1st
attack and someone replied: Jane7.

Stella intercepted
messages to Rainman.

Hubrecht, the car company boss,
is in town for a PR appointment.

He's their target,
number 23 on their list.

And when is this appointment?
- It already began.

At the Olympic Stadium.
I've called for backup.

Federal Police, where's Hubrecht?
- In the car.

Get him out.
Hurry up.

Move aside.
Three steps back.

Who locked it?
Open the car.

It's not reacting.

I'll call IT.

Get Mr. Hubrecht
on the phone.

Here.
- Step away.

Mr. Hubrecht, I'm Wandler, Federal Police.
- What's going on? Why am I locked in?

We believe you're being targeted
in an attack.

Because of the list?
- Yes. What car is this?

Where's the driver?
- Get me out.

Someone deleted
Rainman's account.

I saw it.
- Wait.

I'm checking
Yell's web cams.

I know him.
It's Adam.

Adam Klein.

He's Rainman!
- Anna, I...

Watch out!
The car's moving!

Back up! Watch out!

We've lost control.

Move aside!

Get back!
- Don't move!

Out of the way!
- Stand back!

Step back!

Easy now.

Federal Police.
You're provisionally under arrest.

Where's your warrant?
- Provisionally!

Mr. Rainman.
- Traitor.

Traitor.
- What did you say?

What did you say?

Easy.
- What did you say?

It's OK!

What are you waiting for?

Come on.

On the ground.

Are you stupid?

We need to get out of here.
Now.

What? Why?

Jane7 was arrested.

He got us the apartment.
They'll be on to us next.

What if they lock him up?
- That's not our problem now.

He's my friend!

Clean up. Now.

Are you OK?

Yes.
- They used a remote control.

Nah.

Oh, alright. Here.

Why did they terminate
the attack?

Who are you chatting with?

A contact.

What kind of contact?

The less you know
the better.

I thought it's just us.

And I thought
climate.leaks was just you.

What?

Don't let the likes of Jane 7,
alias Adam Klein, fool you.

He told me everything
you told him.

He wasn't your friend,
just a good hacker. That's all.

We have a hotel.
Take this exit.

What are you doing?

What's with you?

I know nothing about you.

You don't tell me sh*t.

What do you
want to know?

Why are you
in a wheelchair?

I was a soldier.

We used a grenade
in training.

Out of date
and badly stored.

Two soldiers died.
One of them was my fiancé.

Who are you chatting with?

Alex Danielov.

He's on our side.
He has money and contacts.

Who did you talk to
on the phone?

A supporter in Holland.

I only know her nick.

There's a network of supporters waiting
for us to take it to the next level.

I don't want
any more secrets.

If you want to know something,
ask me.

I'll answer you.

Promise.

I'll have a quick smoke.

Hello, Mr. Wandler.

There's news.

Adam Klein's Yell computer
didn't connect to Hubrecht's car.

Klein didn't commit
the t*rror1st act.

Good work, Mr. Asfari.

We need to keep an eye
on Anna Krohn.

What if she's using Klein
or he's helping her?

They both work at Yell,
so they might know each other.

Anna Krohn has proven
very cooperative.

At the refinery
and with Rainman.

With all due respect,
Mr. Wandler:

Your goddaughter isn't on our side.
And Krohn's sister is still underground.

There's not a trace.
Something's wrong.

I... didn't mean
to step on your toes.

I'm sorry, Mr. Wandler.

Ah, it's fine.

You're only doing your job.

Care for some fruit drops?

Thanks.

They're good.

The DA has announced
that a suspect has been arrested

in connection with the foiled terror
attack on German Cars' CEO Hubrecht.

For investigative reasons,
the police refused to comment on

if there was a connection
to the refinery hacker attack.

The suspect was exposed by an undercover
agent while trying to destroy evidence.

Now the question is
if other t*rrorists were involved

or if these were the actions
of one individual.

In its annual report,
the WHO announced...

Why can't we go in?

We'll get a time slot.

Explain to us, if you would,
what you tried to achieve at Yell today.

I did what my boss told me to.

Ms. Al-Badri told you to do it?
- Exactly.

Is it a crime?
- What you did

is try to hinder
a police investigation.

I didn't know.

I did
what my boss told me.

You're repeating yourself.
- Because you won't listen.

You know your tech.

You understood
what your boss wanted.

My client won't respond
to speculation.

Exactly.

I want
nothing to do with it.

I want to leave.

You're suspected of belonging
to a t*rror1st organization.

We caught you
destroying evidence.

You're in custody for now.

I'll look into it.

Fantastic.

You're being paid to do so.

Ms. Al-Badri.

Hello.

Ms. Al-Badri,
please wait.

What do you want?
- To chat with you.

About what?

Your employee, Adam Klein,
deleted Rainman's user account.

He had no authority
to do so.

You knew nothing about it?
- Of course not.

Klein maintained the contrary.
- Of course.

Would you join us?

On what basis?

You'd be a big help.

We need your testimony.

Contact my lawyer
for an appointment.

We have a new target.
Another attack.

It's gotta go perfectly
this time.

Who?

We need access
to their security plans.

My contact at the police
didn't give them to me.

But I know
they're on the database.

We need to go
through your sister.

She has access
to the Federal Police.

If you can't hack her,
who can?

Impossible.
I can't.

Listen.
Your sister trusts you.

It's the quickest way to get those plans.
We need to act.

We need Anna's laptop.

This is Anna.

What's up?

Wanna get a drink?

Sure.

I'll send you the address.

Alright.

Who's that?

My ex.

And my two sons.

Cute.

What's that?

A leopard gecko.

What's its name?

Leopard Gecko.
It doesn't have a name.

You have to give it
a name.

That's not my forte.

Male or female?

Female.

Alpha.

Alpha?

Alpha is cool.

Kiss me.

What'll happen
to Adam Klein?

I think
we'll get new information.

We have his cell phone.

Thanks.

Thanks!

What did you like
about climate.leaks?

What do you mean?

At the refinery, you said
you really liked climate.leaks.

Well, why?
- You know,

I think
you guys did good things.

And because
I think that

it's important to talk about
what's wrong with the world.

Do you think
it was enough?

What you leaked?

So much sh*t goes on in this world,
it could never be enough.

So it was pointless?

I didn't say that.
You think it was pointless?

No, but I wonder
if it was enough.

It wasn't enough.

One person can't do it all alone.
- I wasn't alone.

You coming back
to my place?

Cheers.

I gotta pee.

You have to go.

What?

You have to go.

I'm sorry.

Did I do
something wrong?

Anna, what's up?
- I have to do something.

What happened?
- Please leave.

What are you doing?

Charging my cell.
The battery's empty.

Did I wake you up?

Sorry.
- I was already awake.

Insomnia.

You had it long?

Thanks.

Do you have kids?

No, no.

I wanted some, but...

it wasn't meant to be.

Sorry,
we don't have to talk about it.

I just...

I just haven't met anyone
in a long time

who understands
how it is.

I feel the same way.

I broke my son's arm.

I didn't mean to.

He was going
through my things.

I grabbed him too hard.

My ex, Luise,

moved with the kids
to Frankfurt,

where her parents live.

The sacrifices we had to make
were too great.

Want a beer?
