A NETFLIX SERIES

They're holding them in Egypt. We can't just go in.

She's your daughter. Just remember, Pia knows.

Are you threatening me? Don't make me your enemy.

I want to know if you're the same group who took Pia.

You only need to know we share the same goal.

To get Abu Salim freed.

We want you to be our man on the inside.

Let's say we get him released. He's one of Norway's most despised men.

We'll be releasing a terrorist.

But I have no choice.

Can you get it done or not?

Okay, I'll get them.

Alex.

Where's Yusuf?

He hasn't been himself since his father was killed.

- They got her. - That's good news, Yusuf.

Yusuf!

Why aren't you ready yet?

They're not responding.

Get up!

This is the one you lost.

Don't you wanna become a man?

Man up! Focus!

Confirmed. They've all returned to the cave.

It's right. They're there.

Okay.

It's supposed to be there. Right behind the mountain range, you stop.

Let's go.

Get ready to start the intel blocking.

Five minutes is all we got.

What's this? What's happening? Car three, I've lost eyes on them.

Car three, calibrate your camera immediately.

I don't have eyes.

Kirsch, check if it's a fault or a block.

Today, we bear witness to an extraordinary act

in one of history's defining dramas.

Chief, this is Eagle.

All ready. Identified cave entrance.

Thin smoke. Proceed with caution.

Proceed with caution.

Eagle Seven.

I need you immediately at the site, now. How many minutes are you out?

Fuck.

Go on. Go and get the cars.

They were definitely here.

Mother, pack it up quickly

before the intel drone starts working again.

Pia... Pia, are you okay?

Did he do something to you? Are you okay?

We were really scared for you.

Why am I here?

What are we doing here? I don't understand. What did I do?

You didn't do anything.

Shut up!

- Hello? - We missed them.

- But I'm 100% sure they were here. - Fuck.

And now?

No way we can continue moving around here without intel.

The intel drone was only down for ten minutes.

Are you on your own?

That's absolutely right, sir.

I'm sure there's no need to explain the importance of this project.

What do you want us to do now?

Wait a second.

Chaim, give me a second.

I'm on my way to the operations room. I'll see if they've eyes on them.

Okay.

You keep scanning with the drones to give us an indication.

Meanwhile, we'll keep a low profile.

Okay. Thanks. Bye.

Eagle Seven, that's a negative on Botanica.

Eagle Two to Four, scan blue area 3-3-2.

Hey. Any news?

There's nothing concrete.

What, they just disappeared from radar?

Unfortunately, yes.

I think someone tampered with our signal.

We had a problem with the camera, and we haven't seen them in some time.

We were right on their tail.

Eagle Six, continue north of Antenna axis.

Maybe they went down into a valley or into some cave.

There hasn't been a trace for some time now.

Well, of course there hasn't. They know every corner, those shits.

I know, yeah.

Eagle One, continue north on blue area 1-2-6.

Okay, Maski,

if you see so much as a bush move, any irregular movement, call immediately.

- Yeah. - Yes?

- Yes. Will do. - Thank you.

As you know, it was assumed that Abu Salim was an ISIS leader.

It was also assumed that he was the architect

behind several terrorist attacks

in both Israel and other countries in the region,

including a confrontation with Hamas which put one of the Hamas leaders...

- Bashir Amari? - Yes. In a wheelchair.

Hmm. That wasn't proved in court either.

But it was proved that he was an active member

of a terrorist organisation.

Enough to be convicted.

Uh, yes, even though he isn't a Norwegian citizen.

Yeah.

Keep looking through all the... all the evidence.

- Look for technicalities. - Okay.

I'll check the conviction to see if anything's there.

Thanks.

I know I'm of a minority opinion, but I'll say it again.

I'm not sure we should entirely reject the deal.

Twelve in exchange for three is not a bad deal.

We're sitting here going round in circles, not doing anything.

We have to get them out.

I've started a dialogue with Egyptian Intelligence.

I've asked about coordinating operations.

Every coordination with the Egyptians is a hassle...

- That's it, Mosh. Nothing we can do. - Clock's ticking.

We wait for approval from the Egyptians.

- What of the ISIS prisoners? - They're losing patience.

Tension in the prison is growing.

Excuse me for a second.

- What's there? - Have a look.

They went in this direction there.

So, by my calculations,

they're probably more or less in this area here.

- We're going to focus our efforts there? - Yeah.

- Scan every centimetre. - Very well.

Okay.

Maski...

connect me to the live feed, okay?

Certainly will.

Thanks.

Hey, Bat-El...

Listen, I have a few urgent matters that need taking care of at home.

Push my meetings for today.

All the meetings in my book.

Thanks.

Go west.

Cover up.

You know why I have such belief in you?

You know, my last lawyer, he was probably a very good one too,

but his, uh...

his motivation, his-his-his drive

was money, maybe prestige, which...

it can only get you so far.

Not to the very limits of what you are able to do.

But you, on the other hand...

your motivation...

You know, as a...

as a father myself...

I believe there could be no more motivated lawyer

in the whole world.

I'm here to get you out of prison.

- Let's focus on that, shall we? - Oh, yes.

And where do we start?

Well, uh, you've been convicted

of being a member of a terrorist organisation...

Terrorist?

You know, that's what the...

the British they said about Irgun.

The Jews...

fought for the liberation of Israel...

and blew up hotels,

killed innocent people.

And what about you?

Norwegians who the Germans in this country called terrorists.

Hmm?

And your point being?

You call me a terrorist.

I call myself a soldier.

Uh, whatever suits you. I'm not here to discuss semantics...

It's not semantics, it's the core of the conflict.

If only you Westerners could see us as we see ourselves.

We are... soldiers

in God's army, we are not evil.

We... we just want the world to be the way our God wants it to be.

Come on!

Come on!

Come on, quickly!

Yusuf, take them there.

Khaled, check all the places around here.

Go up there. You too.

Come on! Quickly!

- I'm writing it down. - Cancel the meeting too.

- Let Uri know, and print it. - Okay.

- Hey, hey, hey! - Hi, Oren!

My son.

I can't get used to this haircut.

Where are your curls, hmm?

- Yes. - What?

- Why are you here? On leave? - I'll wait for you in the office.

- Yes. - Bye, Oren.

What's up?

What's going on?

Hmm.

That unit, Dad, I can't go back.

The commander keeps humiliating me.

They make me stand at attention for three hours.

Slightest movements get me punished. Enough.

Just a second. Let me get this straight. Are you AWOL?

Dad, please, get me transferred to Intelligence.

- One call gets me out of this nightmare. - Oren, you'll get through this.

We've all been there. It's not just some...

Stop! Enough! Dad, enough!

I can't hear that nonsense about becoming a man...

It isn't nonsense and...

- Help me for once in your life! - Once?

You've got some nerve, you know.

I don't have time to deal with this now, and I don't intend to deal with it.

Get back to your unit immediately before this AWOL costs you, okay?

Oren...

Yeah, sure. Thank you.

Yeah, thank you. I've... I've got all the ones on display.

I have no problem with...

Alex?

- That's your name, right? - Yes.

Anat.

Oh.

I've come to ask for your help.

How?

Talk to him... okay?

It's not a good time now, Oren. You see how troubled he is.

You've no idea how mad he was about your AWOL.

But it's fine. I went back to the base. Everything's fine. Nobody noticed anyway.

But I can't go back to another week.

You can do it, honey. Trust me. I told you.

Let me take care of it somehow, alright?

Leave it with me.

Come on, let's go eat.

Come on.

It's so nice you could come home in the day to have lunch with us.

- Uh... - That looks good.

- Here you go, little sister. - Alma, put the phone away.

I'm putting it away.

What is it? It will beep if they need you, won't it?

- What? - Arik. The phone, Arik.

They've yet to invent a phone that you look at to get calls.

Hmm.

Is something going on, Dad?

It's a developing crisis. Something could happen at any minute.

Any information is critical.

Any second here or there could mean the difference between life and death.

- For the hostages? - Mm-hmm.

So, why won't you consider prisoner exchange?

It's been done before.

- Oren. - What?

- Enough. - Why didn't they do it this time?

It's okay. I'll tell you why not.

Because if we surrender again and make a deal, it will never end.

That's why. It's a prize for terrorists. We have to say stop. That's it.

- Otherwise, it will never end. - And what if they were your children?

Stop, stop. God forbid. I can't even think about it.

- Why? She's right. - I asked.

It makes no difference. We have to treat this objectively.

We can't make important decisions based on personal consideration.

But really now...

what would you do if this was Alma or me?

I'm a soldier now, okay? It's not such an extreme scenario.

So, you'd insist on your principles and reject the chance to save us?

- You want to talk about principles? - Yes, I'd like to.

- Really, Mr Soldier? - Arik.

I was taught the principle that a soldier handles his problems and doesn't run away.

What does that have to do with it? I'm talking emotion versus principle.

Principles aren't controlled by emotions, Oren, by definition, you know?

Understand?

Here. You've got your answer, sister.

He would let us die.

Tell me, what is this nonsense you're saying, hmm?

What? Do you even know what I do? You babble all day, that's all you do...

- Why are you shouting? - Arik, stop!

It's his right to voice his opinion, okay?

Can't we have one meal without arguing at the table?

Okay. Sorry.

Alpha, this is Mother.

We have eyes on them.

I see two dirty cars and a dirty armed figure beside them.

Three hundred meters from the eastern range.

Copy that. Over.

Sorry, I have to take this.

Just a second.

- Yes? - We've found them.

We're on top of them, ready to move.

That's if the intel drone hasn't seen them yet.

Okay. Wait a second, I'll check the drone.

Can you hear me? They're still looking.

I'll keep you posted.

Copy that.

Listen, there's nothing I can do.

No, I can't see how anything can be worse than doing nothing.

Alex, I told you, I'm doing what I can.

Release the prisoners.

Or negotiate. Do whatever the hell is needed.

If you don't do that, I'm going to go right out

and say who Pia's real father is.

Hey!

If you do that, everything is fucked.

I need to be sure that you do something, and this seems to be the only way.

Alex, if you do that,

you fuck up your best chance of getting Pia back.

What do you mean?

- Wh-What are you up to? - You know I can't tell you that.

But you need to keep yourself in check.

You hear me? I mean it.

- Not a word. - No, I won't say anything.

I promise. But, uh... You're really doing something?

I am, believe me.

But this is serious.

I've said enough, Alex.

Okay. I understand.

Fuck.

- No sugar, right? - Mm-hmm.

You look like you have news.

No.

Just, um...

hope there will be some progress.

- Was that Pia's father? - No.

I mean...

Yes, that was Pia's father.

How is he?

He, uh... It's hard for him too, of course.

And how about their father? Where is he?

He's a rabbi.

- Okay. - Mm.

He can't accept that Nadav doesn't share his emunah, his belief.

So, Nadav lives with me.

Yeah.

The last, uh, straw was when Nadav decided he didn't want to be religious anymore.

- Hmm. - And then, he joined the army.

And then, Noa decided she didn't want to be religious, you know, like...

- Like her big brother. - Of course.

Yeah, but then...

there was no way back.

Wh-What do you mean?

He decided to sit shiva on them.

Shiva?

Yes, that's mourning the dead.

So now, they are dead to him.

He will not come here to say a prayer for our children.

Drink, drink.

Raise your head. Raise it.

Slow, slow, slow, slow.

Everything's fine.

Pia,

come on, drink something.

Come on, slowly.

Come on.

Alpha, pick up.

They're in a guarded area.

At least six armed dirty units identified.

There are hostages at seven o'clock of the cave,

guarded by at least two.

Copy that?

This is Alpha. Copy that.

Above them, in control position, waiting for the green light for contact.

Excellent. Leave the line open.

Copy that.

Chameleon, this is Alpha. Take the Humvee to the meeting point.

Come on, let's move.

Come on, let's go.

We're in position and ready.

Copy?

- Copy. - So, do I have the green light?

We are here together

so that the world may hear and see us.

We call out to our governments in a shared plea,

from my heart to yours,

save our children.

Ma'am, a few days ago, we saw you confronting Minister Shor.

What do you think the government should do?

Everything to get our kids home to us.

Including prisoner exchange?

Everything that is necessary to bring them home.

Mrs Bakke, we've been made aware that you are one of the Norwegians

who took part in the Oslo Accords in '93.

How does it feel now when your own child has fallen victim to a situation

that was so naively papered over in those agreements?

What kind of a rude question is that?

- You should be ashamed of yourself! - Mrs Bakke, please.

Well, probably, a lot of mistakes were done in 1993.

But what the parties tried to do then was to talk instead of fight.

I think that's something that today's leaders could learn from.

Do I have a green light?

You do.

Go.

Copy that.

Mother, this is Alpha. Whenever you're ready.

Roger.

Go ahead. Quietly.

Yes, come out if you want.

Khaled! Get out!

Go to the left! Go!

I have to get out of here!

Noa! Get down!

Do we have confirmation the suspect is behind the rock at seven o'clock?

Affirmative. I identified the hostages.

- Tamir! - Yes.

Tamir and I are charging forward. Cover us.

Three, two,

one!

Alpha. I have a man down. Repeat, man down. Cover me.

- Go, go. Quickly, go! - Alpha, no!

Pia!

Pia!

Okay. Okay, slowly! Slowly!

Alpha, this is Eagle.

I see 12 armed dirty units coming from the north!

Need backup urgently!

Eagle, Alpha is in the air.

Pull out! We're under fire!

Fuck.

Monster.
