Fortitude (2015) s02e10 Episode Script

Season 2, Episode 10

1 Let me go now, please.
Your wife's sick.
What if I could help her? Khatri found someone with altered genetic qualities.
A way to repair diseases.
Speak to Khatri.
(SCREAMS) We need to get you to the hospital.
You need stitches.
Talk to her.
Calm her down.
Let me go! Who's the extraction? It's the sheriff.
Anything we should know? Bit of a character apparently.
It's not this boy who'll kill the demon.
It's you.
Only Dan.
Too late.
The river did come to me Straight into my arms I try to caress it But it ran through my fingers Water will keep running Rivers will turn Water will keep running Rivers will turn Water will keep running Rivers will turn Water will keep running Rivers will turn Sheriff.
Sheriff Anderssen? Governor Munk.
The, um, the man you brought out.
The, uh, the dead man.
Yup? He made a confession? He certainly did.
Is that his blood? Yep.
Did you do this? No.
He did it all on his own.
Mutilated himself.
Cut off his own genitals.
Well, who knows the full extent of his madness? Hmm.
Tomak, Governor Odegard Bianca Mankyo, the geologist.
- Hindemith.
- Hindemith.
Perhaps we'll never know.
It was a A blessing you stopped him.
A fucking blessing.
Out of my way, please.
Lars has found a body and this eyeball in a car.
He recognized the deceased as Trude Ekeland.
This is her eye.
Where's the car? Top road.
You're coming with me.
When a parasite infects a host, manipulation of the host's genome can occur at an epigenetic level.
Uh-huh.
Go on.
The parasite and the host are competing inside the same genetic space and something has to give.
What gives? Dan Anderssen.
What's he got to do with this? He was infested by the wasp larvae.
Should have died but he didn't.
He changed.
I've already witnessed his increased pain thresholds, his aggression, vitality and most significant, his ability to regenerate damaged tissue.
Tissue regeneration, Michael.
Everything I do, everything that motivates me, my work and knowledge is about hope.
This might be Freya's hope.
You need to bring him to me.
Yeah, you want me to bring him to you? Open this.
More padding.
Especially around the head.
The lining's thermally insulated.
Sedative drip in here.
Delivery timer.
Keep him under once he's in the chopper.
Good.
Last thing I want's a ruckus in a helicopter.
Did you enjoy it? Killing him? I don't know that I enjoy anything much anymore, Petra.
I see the thing that has to be done and I have no hesitation in doing it.
Who decides what has to be done? It declares itself.
I never used to see things so clearly.
But things change.
People don't.
Dan Anderssen killed Vladek.
That's not the Dan Anderssen we knew.
That's some kind of monster.
What Doctor Khatri thinks is, is that monster, it could be could be the hope we're looking for.
If I sit here with you honey, and I don't try this one last thing And I lose you? I wouldn't be your Michael.
I love you, girl.
Hmm.
Both her eyes are gone.
Did she do this to herself? Yep.
She has a sister in Vukobejina.
It's happening again.
When everything went crazy before, the one thing that kept me sane, that I clung too all the all the time No matter how dark and frightening, I trusted you Guarding us.
I felt safe here, even in that madness.
And then you were so sick.
All those weeks.
And what came back Like Dan died and walked over into the land of the dead and a demon took his shape and came back into the world amongst us.
I look at your face, Petra.
And for the first time ever, I see it in you.
What? Sami.
Reindeer herder.
The blood of the tundra flowing in your veins, beneath your beautiful pale skin.
Did you kill Elena? Yes.
I think I did.
She wanted me to.
Hey I'll drive Trude back in to town.
It's like Like I've had the most wonderful, like, peaceful sleep.
Yeah? Yeah.
Vincent.
Yes.
Like I can't remember ever having before, in all my life.
All the things I was worried about Work.
You.
The shit I thought Khatri was up to.
It was just evaporated.
Love and goodwill, Vincent.
I know it sounds like hippy shit but I, honestly I mean (SIGHS) And I heard a chorus, a choir.
It was celestial.
That's the word.
Shit.
Oh, he's not there.
Just the girl on her own.
Leave her! What happened? Shh.
Don't move, Petra.
- Your car got hit - I'm okay Hey, be still.
Let me up.
Let me go! Let me go! Don't kill me, Dan! Please! Let me go! Please! Dan Anderssen! Petra? Sheriff around? Petra, I am looking for Dan Anderssen.
Dan's gone.
I'm pretty sure.
You're gonna help me.
I know where Dan was last time he was Dan.
We'll start there then.
Come on.
I have one task: the extraction of Dan Anderssen.
Yes, of course.
I understand.
What about Khatri? She'll be leaving, too.
I'll make my own arrangements, fair enough.
No.
No? You're staying.
The fuck do you mean by that? What I mean by that, is Schenthal Pharma have paid you, to date, 185,000 euros for managing this mess.
And before you go anywhere you'll earn it.
And If I refuse? (CHUCKLES) I found him here.
Not long after he went missing.
Completely completely crazy.
Chained to the stairs.
I was afraid he was gonna die.
He was raging, fevered, drinking everything, purging.
- For two months.
- Two months? Doctor Khatri said that Dan had that parasite inside him all that time.
Everyone else that was infected like Dan was, they all attacked someone.
He saw it coming.
He fought the thing, all by himself.
Why didn't you tell someone? Because you love him? Where did you get this stuff? In Vukobejina.
A colleague, they knew all about it.
They acquired the knowledge from the Sami Shaman and reindeer herders.
It's known as reindeer juice, or muscimol.
It'll protect me, against all this blindness shit that's coming? Well, I obviously used it myself when I was there.
Jesus.
How did that work out? Some side effects.
Side effects? What kind of side effects? Mild hallucinations.
What, like cannabis? I've never used cannabis.
No, I bet you haven't.
Ah Jesus, Jesus.
.
That, be careful! That's really, that's really painful.
When I was told to hold back the fuel for the fleet, I was in fear of my life.
I know First because I thought Dag Tannar was going to knock my block off.
And then because Hildur was glaring at me.
Like a beady-eyed herring-gull.
I don't think that's right.
And I mean no disrespect when I say this but I always thought Governor Odegard was a very attractive woman.
Sexy? Yes.
That's what I mean.
Hildur.
CROWD: Hildur! When I, uh, when I put on this jacket.
I become every man and woman in this bar.
All of us loved Hildur Odegard.
I'm just the one wearing the jacket while you're all too busy going to work and raising families and doing what Hildur wanted.
Hildur Odegard was murdered.
She killed herself.
No.
She was murdered.
In cold blood.
Her killer made it look like suicide.
Murdered? Hildur was murdered? So who murdered her? I'll show you.
He's got the whole town with him.
All the hard drives.
- She infected? - Yes.
How advanced is she? Very.
She's nearly done.
Right, are you going to need all this stuff? Incinerator.
Always liked you, Hildur.
Always thought that we had an awful lot more in common than we were able to acknowledge.
You had Eric.
I had Phyllisha.
Things could have been very, very different.
Mmm.
No need for that kind of language.
I am not a murdering bastard! It was an accident! Shh! Keep your fucking voice down! From inside that office, Hildur Odegard protected us.
Cared for us.
Your families.
Your kids.
And in there now, is the man who killed her.
Erling Munk pushed Hildur Odegard into a hole in the ice.
What the fuck? Lars, you saw him out there.
Yes, I did! Ralfi, you sent her to meet him! - Arrest him! - Yes, arrest him! Arrest him? Of course, fucking arrest him! He's the governor.
He killed the governor! Erling Munk is the governor of Fortitude.
Erling Munk is the chief of police of Fortitude.
They all love you.
This is all your fault.
- She was our shepherd! - (CLAMORING) She saved this town, when it all went to hell! Yes! I am his sheriff.
I answer to him! He murdered Hildur! Oh, you want justice? ALL: Yes! You want the rule of law? Yes, we want the fucking rule of law.
The law you want is in your own hands! (CLAMORING) - Get him! - Kill the fucker! Get him! (SHOUTING) Dan.
It's Michael Lennox.
(GRUNTS) Khatri! Doctor Khatri, wait! Where are you going? Please.
You can't leave.
I can't help her by myself.
Hey! Quieten down.
Fuck off! Hey, no, don't.
Fuck! You need to find her some reindeer juice.
More infection is on the way from Vukobejina.
Fuck! Stay down, out of sight till we get to the airport.
(MICHAEL GRUNTS) You pulled me out of that burning cave, Michael.
This is the miracle.
This is what you're searching for.
And you're not the only one.
Hey.
Hey.
Sorry.
Hey, sorry.
The, uh I need the reindeer juice.
The woman you brought back.
The soldier.
You you had some in a box.
Where is it? My, my dad took it from us.
- Where, where did he put it? - He destroyed it.
- Why would he do that? - Because it's drugs.
We could go to prison.
He didn't want it around.
He didn't want us taking it or selling it or anything.
- You're lying.
- I'm not lying.
Give me the muscimol! I need it! I have to have the reindeer juice! Hey! You can't come in here and yell! My mum is sick! It's the cure for Natalie.
For everyone that's gonna get this fucking thing that Dr.
Khatri say's is coming at us from Vukobejina.
If Rune says Dad destroyed it then he destroyed it and that's all there is.
He didn't.
He hid it.
I watched him.
Where? Where did he put it? Petra, open the door.
Munk's dead.
I know.
It was Dan.
Open the door.
Promise me.
What? You won't kill Dan.
He's no use to me dead.
(GRUNTS) - Unclip your seatbelt.
- What? Unclip your seatbelt.
- Take off your headset.
- Why? Just take off your headset.
(DAN COUGHS) You're hunting me.
Taser.
Non-lethal.
Uh-huh.
When a polar bear catches its prey, it eats them alive.
Did you know that? It's true.
I saw it once.
Bear took a man.
Terrible thing.
Terrible.
But at the time I thought, "Wow, what must it be like?" The Shamans, they think that when a bear devours a man, the man's spirit lives on in the bear.
Tell me your name.
What? Your name.
So I know who's inside me.
Fuck yourself.
(GROANING) (SCREAMING) (GROANS) Fucking cannibal.
Fuck.
- What the hell have you done to her? - Me? You brought her here and look.
I know what it is.
I know what to do.
There's nothing you can do for her now.
Nothing but pray.
Ah! Natalie, can you see anything? Can you see anything at all? Light and dark.
That's it.
There's nothing else now.
Yes, there is.
Yes, there is.
(GASPS) Little lamb, who made thee Dost thou know who made thee (HUMMING) Made thee (HEAVY BREATHING) Michael Lennox! Michael Lennox! Ah! I know.
Getting shot.
Once experienced, never forgotten.
I've never been shot but I've watched a variety of fuckers rolling around in agony.
The pain'll ebb as you bleed out.
Oxygen to the brain depleting.
No going back from this.
You, you have to get him back.
Hand him over to Khatri.
I know about your wife.
All I care about.
Hey.
I'll see to it.
You've done all you could.
(GUNSHOT) Is he alive? I don't know if he's alive or not.
- He's not in his fucking box.
- It doesn't matter.
Harry, get me home, I want to see Freya.
(MUTTERING) Demons and monsters and shaman.
I know why you came.
Make the demon human again.
Save the town.
Heal us all with your sacrifice.
So many monsters.
So much sacrifice.
Not enough for Dan.
(GROANS) Dad You're back.
Yep.
I think I am.
