Varg Veum - Begravde Hunder (Varg Veum - Buried Dogs) (2008)

Now the Adu case. The charges against
the police officers have been dropped.
18 year old Mikael Adu died
after his arrest in Bergen last August.
Police methods were criticized.
Party leadership candidate
Einar Bergene sees this as
a victory for law and order.
This has been very tough
on the three officers.
They were pre-condemned, accused...
This inquiry shows they only
performed their job well.
An 18 year old died.
Is that to 'a job well done'?
We have to realise society has changed.
The police often has to face
violent individuals.
Einar Bergene's comments
since the case was dropped
meet vivid criticism.
Last night over 3000 people took part
in protest marches in Oslo and Bergen.
In Bergen the march developed
into violent riots.
Around hundred arrests were made.
Marit Haug, was this
a 'job well done'?
No, it wasn't.
Bergene is not representative
for our politics.
Will this make you win?
Let's hope so!
BURIED DOGS
A free adaptation
of Gunnar Staalesen's novel
Deputy party leader Einar Bergene
hails Adu's arrest by the police
as 'a job well done'.
Mikael Adu died during the arrest.
Einar Bergene's remarks have
stirred up a storm of protest.
Party leader Kristian Fredriksen and
the second deputy leader, Marit Haug,
have not made
any comments so far.
Party leader
Kristian Fredriksen's dilemma is
that he cannot reject Einar Bergene
without alienating
an important part of his electorate.
At the same time this type of remark
is totally incompatible with
the party's wish to enter government
after next year's general election.
And Marit Haug,
what are her chances?
- Varg Veum?
- Yes?
I'm Marit Haug.
I can see that.
As the party is electing a new leader,
she's an obvious choice.
- You're getting a lot of attention.
- Not for our policies, I'm afraid.
A boy is strangled
and your colleague calls it 'well done'.
Your policies seem quiet clear.
I didn't come to discuss politics.
Okay.
Do you need help?
I have... for some time
been pursued by someone.
What makes you think that?
I just know.
I can't be more specific.
As a public figure it is perhaps normal?
A few months ago someone
broke into my flat in Oslo.
- Did you report it?
- Yeah.
I don't think they will do much.
The police has "limited resources".
I'm sorry, but... I'm not a body guard.
I guess I'm not from
the right political camp.
If you have anything specific,
I suggest you go to police.
In case you should change your mind.
Norwegian People's Party,
Marit Haug.
LAST NIGHT'S RIOTS
- Anything else?
- I'll have a coffee.
- To go.
- Make it two. He'll pay.
I did some research on Mikael Adu.
- You were his Child Welfare contact.
- All of that is confidential.
- Have a nice day.
- But you knew Adu!
I said no!
Marit? I don't get this.
Shouldn't you speak before Einar?
- Here you are put after him.
- Honestly... Thanks.
Kristian?
- Shouldn't I speak after your address?
- It's better if Einar goes on first.
We must put an end to this Adu story.
Everybody expects it.
- I thought you were informed?
- No.
Damned...
Is it all right?
Not really. Now I have to
rewrite my introduction.
Great.
All right, everyone.
We're on in 5 minutes.
I'm ready.
Let's see how he will
get away with this.
He has to back down. If he thinks
he stands a chance against Marit Haug.
- At least she's better than him.
- Bergene is harmless.
- How can you say that?
- He's stupid enough to be honest.
Whereas this Marit Haug
gives their program a pretty face.
JUSTICE FOR ADU
Hello, Bergen!
On behalf of the party...
my two deputy leaders and myself,
I wish you welcome and thank you
for your warm reception.
This Friday
opens our national convention,
and when the weekend is over, ends
an era for me and my party.
After 30 years as party leader,
it is with regret
I pass on the chairmanship.
But I enter this process
totally confident that
the convention can chose between
two worthy, competent candidates.
And now, please welcome Einar Bergene!
I know that many of you have come
to hear what I have to say
on the Adu case.
I also know that
many among you expect me
to make an apology.
Which I have no intention of doing.
What I do deplore is the situation
created by the Adu case.
I also deplore that anti-social
individuals and immigrant groups
use violence instead of
their democratic right
to express themselves.
I deplore. . .
All the weapons on the street.
And that more people chose to use them.
People with psychological problems,
with other views and values than us.
This is the new reality
the police is facing.
A reality we naively are importing
from other countries.
A reality the government coalition
refuses to act upon.
I've had enough. I'm off.
. . . Doing their job.
We can't blame the police
for maintaining order.
Life is strange sometimes, Hamre.
- What's happened now then?
- Marit Haug came to my office today.
She said she felt pursued.
And what did you tell her?
To go to the police
if she had anything specific.
My, oh my!
She gave a vague description of a man.
I think she saw him in the crowd today.
We'll talk with her. But first Bergene.
He was the target here.
She felt threatened...
And three hours later she's
inches away from a bullet.
- Coffee?
- Thanks.
There could be a connection?
True. It could also be that it doesn't
take her much to ask for help.
- Like a break-in.
- Right. You take it.
No witnesses,
nothing missing.
Is she inventing?
The Oslo police has at least used
a lot of resources on her complaints.
Why would she lie?
For a politician having a bodyguard
gives a certain status.
If she needs attention,
she should go to the press.
Depends what kind of attention
we're talking about.
- That bad, huh?
- Yeah.
If we want it in the papers,
we must make a statement now.
No, Jan Arild. First we'll see
what the police says.
- And release a press statement later.
- I'll take care of it.
We'll let Jan Arild deal with the press.
What?
That could be misunderstood.
We must appear in person.
- It would seem as if we don't care.
- We'll discuss this later.
Everyone knows
we've had our conflicts.
Now we must show our sympathy
with Einar and his family!
That we can do later. The important
thing now is to stand together.
There is not much we can say so far.
She stable, but the situation
is still critical.
It's great if one of you
could stay with him.
I could stay, if you want.
Thank you.
- But I would rather that Kristian...
- Yes, of course.
Marit Haug, how is Eva Bergene?
It's too early to tell.
We'll issue a press release later.
Could you yourself be in danger?
The only thing that matters now...
is that Eva will pull through.
NPPleadership candidate
Einar Bergene. . .
"I understand I'm not from
the right political camp. . ."
You've reached Marit Haug,
I can't come to the phone. . .
You can't stay at the hotel.
I'll take you to my place.
You'll be safe here.
The break-in at your house... The police
says there was no sign of entering.
- And nothing was stolen?
- Not that I know of.
- How do you know someone was there?
- I'm certain of it.
Tell me one thing... Why break in
if you don't want to steal anything?
Information.
They've accessed my computer.
All right.
- Hello?
- Ingvild. Watching the news?
- No, why?
- Just put on Channel 2.
. . . It's a development our party has
warned against for years.
Does this mean you hold immigrant
groups responsible for the attack?
No.
My point is only that these events. . .
. . . Show that we need someone like
Einar Bergene in Norway today.
To drop the Adu case,
and Einar Bergene's. . .
- Hi. Have you seen Kristian?
- He's in there.
- Why aren't you taking the phone?
- Oh, I'm sorry...
I had to disconnect yesterday.
And that improvised press conference?
Einar wanted to thank people.
- Why was I not informed?
- You just said it...
It was improvised. The press came,
so we just played it by ear.
But to hold a press conference...
...and I'm the only one not present...
Don't overestimate
your own importance.
This is first and foremost about Einar.
This is Varg Veum.
I asked him to check a few things.
Shouldn't we rather
let the police do that?
I will only need 5 minutes of your time.
My schedule is full.
We're having a meeting now.
But see if Marianne can fit you in.
I have to go.
We'll speak later.
Let's see...
It was already tight,
and with all that has happened...
I understand.
That looks great. And perhaps you could
put the flyers on the table here.
Great.
I think that's it.
Excuse me...
You have 2 minutes?
- I have a meeting.
- We can talk on the way.
- You work with Marit Haug?
- Yes.
- I've been her assistant for 8 years.
- Then you must know her well.
- Has she mentioned being stalked?
- She's not one to complain.
What do you think then?
Is she inventing?
Is that what you get paid for?
Snoop around and talk shit about her?
- Why should she invent it?
- The police says...
They've never believed her.
Not even when...
When?
They say she's made groundless reports.
She's been terrorized for 2 years!
By Trond Rogn.
Rogn is a former party member.
I've just been to the hospital.
They've put Eva in artificial coma
to give the body some rest.
They will not know more
before tomorrow.
I'm sorry.
Shall we then postpone the convention?
Well...
What's happened is a tragedy.
And my heart goes out to Einar and Eva.
But this might take time.
How can we postpone such an important...
Einar is one of two candidates.
It is unfair to go ahead
with the election now.
Marit scores 60% in all opinion polls,
and more within the party.
So why pretend Einar is a contender?
Out of respect for
a competent colleague?
We will not decide on this now.
Have you read Jan Arild's note?
To say such things before the police
gets back to us, will not seem serious.
We only express
what people are thinking.
- We must take people seriously.
- You're accusing all immigrants!
Did you see this report?
A majority sees the attack
as a result of
a failed immigration policy.
We must respond to that!
They are our electorate.
Black granite, imported from Russia.
Fantastic quality.
Fully polished. Will last for ever.
- Are you Trond Rogn?
- Trond Emil Rogn.
Varg Veum. I want to ask you
about Marit Haug.
At NPP's national convention. Marit
was host and I was regional leader.
The youth section was there,
so we partied a bit.
At the afterparty this black guy
had managed to get in.
He made a fuss, and
a heavy political debate followed.
So one of us had to throw him out.
Later the same night,
he turned up again.
In the harbour, drowned.
You may remember the story.
I got connected to it, and that
bloody cunt claimed it was my doing.
What bullshit. I mean,
the case got dismissed.
I was excluded from the party.
Two years later I had to move,
I was stigmatised as a killer.
- See what I mean?
- And you started terrorising her?
I'd rather say harassing.
And I did harass her quite a bit.
I was quite bitter then.
Then I went to Russia, got a new life.
Is doesn't bother you that Marit Haug
might be the future prime minister?
- You got back?
- 6 months ago.
Things go well?
You have a lot of stone.
You know what?
People die all the time.
Thanks.
- Look who's coming...
- I could feel the smell.
- I realised that.
- Sitting comfortably?
Look at that...
- Perfect shooting range.
- Yes, it was a good choice.
Great view, no cameras.
Just shoot and leave.
- What did he use?
- A FAL rifle.
- Trond Emil Rogn.
- What a face.
Former NPP member. Excluded after
claims of racist violence.
Marit Haug was behind it.
He gets back to her, stalks her.
She reports it, to no avail.
But then...
Then Rogn moves to Russia,
and the harassment stops.
Two months ago
she feels stalked again.
Curiously at the same time as Rogn
decided to move back home.
Rogn is a trained Home Guard soldier.
He could easily handle a FAL rifle.
Trond Rogn was not in town
during the attack.
He got back late last night.
Thanks for looking out for me,
but that was old hat.
We distrust Marit Haug because she made
a false statement. Rogn had an alibi.
With the trajectory from here
you simply can't miss.
What does that show?
It was an amateur...
Someone who overreacted
after the Adu case.
- You know what I think?
- No!
I think that suits you fine.
A mad perpetrator, of foreign origin,
is the perfect solution
for you right now.
Bastard...
That bloody idiot.
- He will use this for all it's worth.
- Ingvild, relax.
Our position is safe no matter
how much Jan Arild gets out of this.
People want us to get into government.
With Einar that is impossible.
I just can't stand
to see you treated like this.
Oh, Ingvild...
It's okay. I can handle it.
- I think this is a bit...
- Yes, you...
- Could I get a word with you?
- Sure.
- Just you.
- Okay. Will you clean it up?
Why didn't you tell me
about Trond Emil Rogn?
- Who told you about...
- Listen, Marit.
I would have found out in any case.
I apologise.
It was stupid not to tell you.
The police says you made
a false statement?
I was convinced I saw him.
But he had an alibi.
He had been with Einar.
As if that can be called an alibi!
Trond Emil and Einar were
best friends even then.
- For all I know they were in on it.
- Did you smear him on purpose?
Trond Emil fronted extreme views
that would have destroyed the party.
Just to recap, Einar Bergene dislikes
you because his friend got excluded.
This was years ago.
It's all forgotten.
- Was it Trond Emil who?
- No.
He has already
been cleared by the police.
The last polls give Einar
a jump to 47 per cent.
Just a phase of sympathy.
Or people are starting to realise
his views are not so extreme.
- They are not part of our program.
- Perhaps they should be?
People are getting concerned about
the way things develop.
They want a harder line. But we've
ignored this and failed to respond.
We've worked hard
to become a credible coalition partner.
If we adopt a populist anti-immigrant
line, we can forget any...
Marit... Isn't it more important to be
taken seriously by our electorate,
then to flirt with potential
coalition partners?
We must postpone the convention
to give Einar a chance.
You want to influence the election.
I realise you dislike this development.
But this is how democracy works.
The convention is postponed.
With two days.
"I have information on the attack.
Sentrum hostel, room 210."
Come on, come on!
- Are you Leif Hansen?
- What do you want?
Know who stays in room 210.
Do I look like a receptionist?
He's from Bosnia.
Stocky build.
- Does he have a name?
- I don't ask people's names.
- Has a woman been to see him?
- No idea!
I haven't seen him since he came.
Be quick.
I don't really like this.
Finished?
What the fuck...
Isak... Isak Bala.
Had you listened to Marit Haug,
this could've been avoided.
Don't accuse me of killing people
in front of my men.
- He was in any case suicidal.
- So you already conclude on suicide?
A big, strong man, and no fight...
We can't really tell before the autopsy.
Can we?
What about the note?
Why was Haug asked to come?
We're trying to find the girl
on the hotel's CCTV.
You seem eager to close this case.
Because of political pressure
or are you in a hurry?
I have to deal with reality here.
Which is more complicated
than politicians think.
We have many criminal immigrants, with
severe diagnoses, but they get no help.
They're sick,
and they have weapons!
Our only instrument of protection
is common sense.
Common sense proved successful
in the Adu case.
...six, seven, eight.
One, two, three, four.
Come on, turn around, over...
Hips, around... and up.
- What's happened?
- I just need a name, Synne.
Someone I can ask.
I've quit the Network.
The police started asking questions.
Please.
- Synne...
- You know I can't.
- It's vital that we keep silent.
- You know you can trust me.
You should speak to Markus Vik.
Reverend Vik?
- Reverend Vik?
- Markus.
Isak.
I'm sorry.
I've been worried about him lately.
Last time I saw him,
he seemed a bit...
- What?
- A bit unbalanced.
When was that?
It's okay.
Here. I got you a new one.
- Hi. How are things?
- Good.
That's Elena. She's a doctor
and helps us sometimes.
That was his bed.
- How long had he been here?
- 4 weeks.
He had just been informed
he would be expelled.
Did he have any friends?
- Someone he confided in?
- He kept mostly to himself.
Are you quite sure?
He didn't speak with others
as far as I know.
- And no other personal belongings?
- No.
- Who did he send money to?
- To his family.
Without them they would starve.
They shouldn't go hungry for a while.
Hamre? What happens to
your theory if I tell you
that Isak Bala received
Who told you? Veum, it's illegal
to withhold information!
It was just a hypothetical question...
- Can I give you a lift?
- No thanks. The bus will be here soon.
Did you treat Isak Bala?
I don't know the name.
Did you know him?
I'm sorry.
I don't know him.
- What are we having?
- Pizza!
Don't laugh. It's tasty, easy to make,
and about the only thing I can prepare.
Marit...
Isak Bala received 150000
just before the attack.
- He was on a contract?
- That's what it seems.
I want you to be extra careful
in the next coming days.
- Marit.
- Hello, it's Kristian.
- Eva Bergene has just died.
- What?
She had a complication.
And nothing could be done.
Yes, that would be good.
I'm so frightfully sorry...
My condolences.
- Einar...
- Leave me!
- As your friend I stand by you.
- She's gone. You realise that?
- How the hell could that happen?
- Look ahead, otherwise you'll go mad.
I'm finished. I can't go on.
The grief won't diminish if you quit.
What would she have said?
You know what a support she's been.
She believed in you!
Would she like
to see you give in?
Things have lost their meaning,
now that Eva's gone.
We understand that you
will need some time...
You don't have to do anything.
Listen to me!
Marit is all fucked up, and people have
so much sympathy for you...
You don't have to give interviews
or do anything!
We only need to publish a few pictures
of you and Kajsa...
Not Kajsa.
Eva asked me especially not to.
You understand that?
Here he comes!
Bergene, do you wish to say anything?
This will make him win the election.
- Varg Veum.
- Anders Larsen.
You called about the FN FAL, right?
Fantastic rifle.
Very precise.
- Especially at long range.
- Are they easy to get hold of?
Easy? Well, perhaps
not easy, but possible.
If you have the right contacts.
You're after the guy who used it.
- Yes.
- Wait. I'll show you something.
Look.
Did he shoot this?
Not very good...
Watch this.
- Wow. He missed on purpose.
- Exactly!
Hamre, it's Veum.
- Who else knows about the 150000?
- If you're not telling us. . .
You have to give me everything
you know about the money.
I will not reveal my source.
If you don't comply, I'll press charges.
What would you achieve by doing that?
Why so interested in the money?
You have your psychotic immigrant.
Who committed suicide.
Case closed.
We got a DNA match from Interpol.
The chap you found is not Isak Bala.
His name is lbrahim Checu.
Kosovo Albanian, lives in Oslo.
Status as humanitarian refugee.
He must have borrowed Bala's name.
Then perhaps you
could trace this transfer.
A nice lump sum.
Why would a man with papers
hide in a church?
I'd like to know the same thing.
Marit?
Marit?
THEIR SECRET LOVE TRIP
Marit Haug and secretary in Thailand!
It's weird. I know half the population,
but have no one to talk to.
Thanks.
Have you every been to Bali?
That's where this picture was taken.
On our first trip together.
I have so many lovely memories.
Until I saw this spread
on the front-page.
Have you... been together long?
For...
...two years!
The way I look!
What did he say?
You must be kidding...
Anything for a front-page?
I'll call you back.
Hi, Varg.
What's the score? Your boss applauds
every time you ruin someone's life?
Are you so sensitive?
Why take it personally, it's Marit Haug!
She might become prime minister.
It's of political interest and...
...a news story if she's gay.
- Who gave you the pictures?
- I don't know.
- Don't fuck with me, Alex.
They were delivered
to the desk anonymously.
They were stolen from Haug's PC
some months ago.
Why do think they came now,
just before the party election?
This is crap, Alex.
Someone wants to break her, and you let
yourself be used as a handy idiot.
It has... been some difficult days
for our party.
Einar Bergene has been hit by a tragedy.
In the middle of this comes
our convention to elect a new leader.
In view of these circumstances,
it is absurd...
to be sitting here discussing
my private life.
But the reason we do that...
is because... a local newspaper...
found it suitable to print an article
which claims I have
a secret relationship
with party secretary Ingvild Steen.
There is nothing secret about
my relationship with Ingvild Steen.
She does an incredible job.
And we have been friends for years.
And as good friends it happens
we give each other a hug.
So I would like to make it clear
once and for all...
I am not gay.
And I've not dated Sweden's
Crown princess as some claim.
So... any questions?
Varg!
A tipster claims Marit Haug has made
private use of parliamentary funds.
I will not print it.
This whole thing stinks.
- Who handed in the tip?
- I don't know.
Wait!
I think it might be an insider.
- Within the party... Bergene?
- From his side.
It's no secret there's an ongoing
power game within the party.
But if this is true,
then it's totally crazy.
Thanks, Alex.
Take it as anonymous tip.
That was quite a performance.
How can you be the leader of a party
that refuses to accept you as you are?
It's about more
than just sexual orientation.
Do you realise how hard
I've worked to get where I am?
Hard enough to renounce on love.
To live as a lesbian couple...
...is totally incompatible with
the leadership of a party like ours.
You're only nave
if you can't see that.
- There are more important things.
- Such as?
A chance to change society,
make it a safer...
Power.
The power to achieve things, yes!
Send me an invoice for your services.
Eva Bergene is dead,
lbrahim Checu is dead...
What happens in your bedroom
is totally irrelevant, all right?
A source claims the pictures were
planted by someone in the party.
And thinks it could be Bergene.
- He doesn't have the guts!
- Listen...
If the burglar and the gunman
is the same person...
- I refuse to believe this!
- Was it the same guy?
Yes!
I don't really know any more...
Chin up.
Come with me.
I want you to sit here...
See if you recognize the woman
who gave you the message.
Use this.
His name wasn't Isak,
but lbrahim Checu, right?
He was hired for an attack
and you took him to the church.
You helped him find a hideout,
and you informed Marit Haug.
Please! I have a little girl in Russia.
Let me be.
The best thing you can do is
to tell me what happened.
You didn't know what
this was about, perhaps.
I don't know anything.
- What do you want?
- Ask your girl a few things.
She's my wife.
Go inside.
Perhaps I should ask you instead?
About what?
Isak Bala...
It doesn't sound familiar?
What about lbrahim Checu?
- Get the hell out of here.
- So that you knew...
Go!
Get the hell out of here!
- You OK?
- Did you see him?
- Trond Emil.
- They're married!
Trond Rogn must be
the man behind Checu.
The attack and the press leak
are connected.
- It's all a political game!
- It wasn't her.
It has to be. She's part of the Network
and he's your old political enemy.
But it wasn't the girl I saw.
Are you protecting someone?
Ingvild perhaps?
- I must think of the convention.
- What is this?
It's not my job to solve this.
The police can do it.
Or you.
FOR A SAFER FUTURE
- Is it Trond Emil?
- Yes. And Einar.
You have to find out
if there's a connection.
Check their mail...
See if you can check
Einar's and Jan Arild's mail.
You want me to check all their mails?
Marit... What's going on?
- Ingvild, you must help me.
- I can't do it.
Please...
All right.
User. Jan Arild Sanne
Hi!
From. Kristian Fredriksen.
To. Jan Arild Sanne.
Einar Bergene's speech
- Marit?
- Hi. Could you come up?
- I must show you something.
- Coming.
"Dear friends.
A week ago my life was changed."
"I was the victim of an attack."
Look at the date.
Einar's speech was written
before the attack.
- Have you taken a copy of this?
- Yes.
I'm calling the police.
- No, don't.
- What?
We must think. One wrong step
could harm the entire party.
You can't withhold this.
We've worked so hard to get here!
Should we let this destroy everything?
Lying just creates more lies.
We just have to find
the right strategy.
We'll talk about this later.
We're in the middle of our convention.
You can't come here.
I can't come here?
Two people are dead. It's not
a good idea to run your own game.
If you have anything specific,
I suggest you go to the police.
Dear colleagues.
Dear friends.
Less than a week ago something
happened which changed my life for ever.
I was the victim of an attack.
An attack that became fatal to my wife.
I lost the one person who...
...who...
I lost the one person who
is dearest to me.
Next to my little daughter Kajsa.
But I know that Eva would have wished
that I continue my life in politics.
That is also what I have decided to do.
Elena?
- You must see a doctor.
- No. No doctor, no police.
I know Trond is behind all this.
He forced you to hide Checu, didn't he?
He said I never would
see my daughter again.
- This is all my fault!
- No, this is not your fault.
Elena...
Thank you.
- Isak, he...
- Ibrahim Checu, you mean.
He came after the shooting, terrified.
He had to leave Norway.
He wanted to give
information to Marit Haug.
- Why?
- He needed money.
I wanted to help him, but Trond
forced me to tell where he was.
Why didn't you go to the police?
In two months we will have been
married for three years.
Then I can get a divorce and have
my daughter come from Russia.
She's only 10 years old.
She has no one to rely on.
What the fuck have you said?!
She didn't have to say much.
I found a lot at your office.
Damned...
Fucking hell!
You fucking bastard!
The perfect plan.
A fake attack...
...to give Bergene sympathy.
And then slander Marit Haug.
You call upon an expert shot
who pretends to miss
but stays in full control.
A masterly plan!
- You can't prove it!
- No, but the police can!
As the amateur you are, you left
a treasure trove for the technicians.
Because you had to fight
to kill that guy, huh?
You'll be nailed for the attack
and two murders. But tell me.
Did you operate alone?
Was it your plan?
Was it Bergene?
He provided an alibi, but will you
sacrifice everything for him?
I won't say a fucking word!
- Want one?
- No thanks.
How is Kajsa doing?
Fine. Under the circumstances.
I don't know...
- How much she understands of it.
- Right. These things take time.
You have a difficult time ahead of you.
I would like you to step down.
It would be the best for your family,
and for the party.
That's absurd!
- The whole party is behind me.
- It has to be this way.
You will do it
for the best of your family...
- And wish Marit...
- Why?
Einar, your time will come.
But if you want a future
in this party...
...then you'll do exactly as I say.
Einar has come to the conclusion
that he after all...
...is not strong enough to stand
as party leadership candidate.
By being present here today,
and in view of the challenges
we have ahead of us...
he has realised that he's not able
to fill this function right now.
His family needs him,
and it's Einar's wish
that we give all our support
to the other candidate, Marit Haug.
Thank you!
Do you know what day it is today?
Mikael Adu's birthday.
He would have been 19 years today.
I have said all I have to say
on that issue.
You thought it wise to call his death
'a job well done'.
- You went a bit far.
- What do you want?
Talk about the attack.
We know that Trond Emil Rogn hired
lbrahim Checu to perform a fake attack.
We know it all.
What the hell are you saying?
Was Trond Emil... in on the attack?
He's been arrested
and taken in for questioning.
My wife...
My wife was killed!
It gave you a good amount
of sympathy.
What the hell are you saying?!
That Eva died... to make me win
the party election?
You didn't know?
You knew nothing about the plans...
Jan Arild Sanne...
He put pressure on me to stand.
He pressured me.
Insisted I should stand
as candidate after Eva's death.
Wait...
Kristian must have
discovered something.
- He just asked me to step down.
- I'm sorry.
In a few months we might
for the first time...
be in government.
We will with our solutions...
create the safe society
we wish for ourselves
and for our children.
Whether you distribute flyers,
have a seat in Parliament or...
stand as Prime minister candidate,
this is what it's about!
"Einar knows. Meet me in the lobby."
Trond Emil
God bless...
They say we get
the politicians we deserve.
I think we deserve a little bit better.
Must remember to vote then...
One question...
How did Marit make Fredriksen
change his mind?
She wanted to run her own game
and you helped her, didn't you?
You found something
to use against him.
That much for honesty and idealism.
I think that...
I think that Kristian wanted Marit out
when he discovered our relationship.
- As if homosexuality was...
- An illness?
But that Marit could fall that low...
I'm so disappointed.
Thanks.
Oh, thank you,
they're lovely!
How will the voters notice
a woman is elected?
Hopefully they won't notice.
Fredriksen!
- How do you see Bergene's step-down?
- Congratulations.
You are your own worst enemy.
People like you create Adu cases.
You don't respect people.
Nothing is true or real.
It's only a game... to achieve power.
...but the party now has a candidate
that is just as strong as Bergene.
What the hell was that about?
Look at the date.
Take it as an anonymous tip.
Kristian Fredriksen, ex-leader of NPP,
is being investigated for having. . .
The paper claims to have information
linking the party leader to the attack.
The two party bosses,
Fredriksen and Sanne,
are charged with complicity
in the murders of. . .
Fredriksen and party colleague Sanne
are charged with complicity in the. . .
But did Marit Haug know about
the contact between Fredriksen
and Trond Emil Rogn?
Did she withhold this information?
