- Djupvik's traitor boss has him blamed and dismissed, albeit honorably, for the Russians shooting the resistance leader. He feels that a Russian job offer, to keep protecting their nationals, is unpatriotic, but he accepts at the PM's and army commander's confidential request. It becomes clear that the too-inquisitive reporter Thomas Eriksen, whose wife Bente still flirts with a Russian regular guest while her stepson Petter moves in with his mother, was murdered by the Russians, who infiltrate the country routinely trough Lapland. The EU agrees to hold dissuasive field exercises, but takes the teeth of them. Berg orders all illegal intruders expelled, but he completely loses control of his party and government.—KGF Vissers
