Original subtitles

Eric and I last fucked two weeks ago.

We've been involved since the solstice party.

I found out where Betty Grew was killed.

Standard fortitude police issue.

Let me know where you're calling from.

I don't know.

Don't ever do that to me again.

Because I'd do this for you.

I'd take the tasks.

They're important.

No. Come on, Dad.

We've got to go home.

I'm going to the mainland in the morning. I don't want to see you before

leave. They're all covering for Eric.

They're all in it.

Shall we?

I can assure you that nothing that has happened recently will in any way

jeopardize your investment.

We anticipate starting the drilling process in a few days time.

And we're looking at first phase completion in 12 weeks, all being well.

Everything looks... Sorry, I just need to take this. Excuse me.

Yes?

I'll go to the government and see how they're going to help us with this, and

then I'll come straight back.

There's no flight today.

I'll be back tonight. And, Dan, you keep your head straight.

My breathing's gone funny, Dan.

Okay.

Petra, look at me.

Four seconds in through one nostril. Hold it for four seconds, and then four

seconds out through the other nostril.

That should steady things a little, okay?

Okay.

Ingrid, make sure the doc can breathe, okay?

Is your hand still there?

Yeah, it's home.

We have to go back.

Yeah, I think so, yeah.

Are you alright?

Gary.

Gary.

I went on a little trip, Henry.

Good for you.

I got talking to some Russians.

They do get very chatty over their vodka.

With me, it very much depends on the company.

The Russians seem to think that there's something pretty rotten in Fortitude.

How would the Russians know anything?

The Russians weren't there.

Well, who was there?

Who was there when Bill Pettigrew died?

Come on, Henry.

Don't fuck me about it.

I'm pretty goddamn tired of being fucked about.

Okay.

The reason I called you, there was somebody there, and I saw him.

Big fella.

Light skin, mean eyes.

He stank like a reindeer's asshole.

Which, to be fair, was probably the last thing it had eaten.

OK.

I might be dying, Morton, but watch how you talk to me.

I can still tell a hawk from a handsaw.

And a man from a bear.

It's happened again.

Doc Allardyce.

She's been ripped to pieces.

Thanks a lot, Henry.

Can I get you more coffee?

I think two is enough. Thank you.

If you had an appointment.

It's an emergency.

You told him I had to fly back this afternoon.

Yes.

Call him again, please, and tell him it's very urgent.

You must feel pretty cut off up there on Fortitude sometime.

Sorry? You must feel pretty cut off.

Isolated. Cut off from what?

Shop, restaurant.

I don't need those things to feel connected.

And it's not places that cut you off.

Could you call him again, please?

Yes, of course.

Hi, Kent. It's Hilda Odegaard. Listen, I need a big favor.

Is your plane available?

Today.

I came as soon as I heard.

I need to take a statement from the first person on the scene.

Who is it?

Marcus, who's looked at.

Shirley's boyfriend.

And Liam Sutter's teacher, right?

You make something of that?

I don't know.

Shall we?

You said you were at the miners' party.

No, you know I was there. I saw you, too.

Until what time?

Until, I don't know, two in the morning. Then you went home?

Right after I collected my records.

Your what?

I loaned the DJ some of my records.

I'm a collector of vinyl, classic 80s mostly.

What was the last song he played?

Enola Gay by OMD.

I remember because I sometimes used that song in the classroom to teach the kids

about Hiroshima.

Yeah. I can see how that would further their knowledge.

Well, it gains their interest.

Just a device.

Yeah, no, I meant it. I mean, now they'll never forget that it was age 15.

It's good.

More than most people know.

So you left the party at... 2 a .m., or thereabout. That's right, you said that.

Straight home?

Uh -huh.

Yeah, I fed Pierre, let him out. Pierre being? His dog.

After Bezukov.

Of course.

You know it?

Mm -hmm.

Put the cake I bought for Shirley in the fridge and went to bed.

How would you describe your relationship with Shirley's mother?

How would I describe it?

We got on very well.

It was a stall.

Yes, it was.

I think there was a stall.

I'm going to ask you the question again.

How was your relationship with Dr. Allardyce?

Somebody's been in here missing about?

Dear.

Mary said she sought him from the street and followed the man.

Where is she now? At the hotel getting some hot soup.

Where's Ronnie?

She left him up in the glacier.

Arm injury.

Sounds like it could be septicemia.

I sent Petra and Ingrid out to look for him.

Petra's taking this hard.

Well, she's probably in the wrong job, then.

This isn't Detroit.

It's getting close.

Shirley needs a post -mortem.

But we don't have anybody to do it.

Our only medic is trying to save our town doctor.

Shirley Allardyce died of a heart attack.

Her hand is clutching the left side of her chest.

I'm positive the post -mortem is going to show plaque and blood clots and

blackening of the coronary muscle, which is what happens when you have a massive

AMI.

The only visible injuries on Shirley were self -defense wounds on her arms.

That was it.

And the blood on the wall was from Dr. Allardyce.

Shirley transferred it there.

If... If Shirley did attack her mother... No way. No one would believe

Be careful about saying stuff like that. It's a legitimate line of inquiry.

We hold Marcus as long as possible.

We need to talk to him again. I think he's lying about his relationship with

Allardyce. I know.

Where are you going?

Check on Carrie.

They're holding Mr. Hoosman at the station.

Marcus, why are they holding him? The important thing is it's not Liam. It's

Liam, Jules.

I don't get it.

Well, I'd rather not get it. Not getting it's better. Until now, getting it

meant Liam was guilty.

You need to slow down, Frank. It's ridiculous to think a kid that size...

need to let the police handle this.

But I need to know.

I need to know what we're dealing with here, Jules.

Who are you really trying to get off the hook?

Have you found him?

No, not yet.

F.

He knows.

He knows?

I'm a mind reader.

I know people better than I know themselves.

Wow.

He doesn't even know what he had for breakfast.

I didn't have any breakfast.

And I, uh, could do with a coffee right about now.

She was a good person.

Yes, she was.

Yes.

But there are some questions.

She had no injuries.

She was soaked in her mother's blood.

She had defense wounds, which are... I know what they are.

And her heart attack...

Could have been brought on by... No.

No. Well, I said could. We don't know yet.

No. Shirley wasn't capable of that kind of violence. I'm not trying to blame

Shirley. I'm... I'm just trying to understand what's happening to us.

How is she?

Scared.

Look after her.

Okay. At least until we find Ronnie.

Okay. Okay.

Tan.

Whatever's happening to us, Shirley was the victim.

There's something else going on.

Something much worse.

What the fuck is going on?

Pretty busy just now.

Wait, was the teacher that found them?

Not them.

He found Doc Holliday.

Don, how much do we even know about this guy?

You know, Frank Sutter said... Oh, you see, Frank, you tell him to come and

to me.

This is outsiders.

Russians, probably.

Thanks for the tip.

Well, you should be rounding them up, interrogating them.

I've got a lot on my plate.

and some asshole just out of Donegal talking about rounding up outsiders.

I could do without that just now.

If you don't, we will.

It's a disturbing development, as you say. Yes.

You must be concerned about its implications for your hotel project.

No, I'm concerned about its implications for the island.

Well,

I shall take it up with the subcommittee.

Good. When?

We meet on Mondays.

That's too late. We need help right now.

There are competing demands.

Involving people being ripped open?

Look, I'm not unsympathetic. I'm not asking for sympathy here. I'm asking for

forensic teams.

You know we're facing cuts right now?

Two attacks might seem a lot of fortitude.

You're not going to send any extra resources, are you?

I think it will be difficult to persuade people of the urgency.

Right, because we are a...

Small, faraway island that doesn't matter. Of course you matter. Because we

a dying economy. We have a falling rate of childbirth. We have no vote.

Because if we're lucky, we might survive at the remote weather station.

Your car is here.

Who's calling you?

I wasn't answering.

I got that impression.

Is Dr. Allardyce still alive?

She still has a faint pulse.

I'm coming home.

How? Oh, Kent Larson has that little air jet.

Want to know something funny? They're playing body holly in my lobby here.

It's not funny.

You want to know something else?

Remember how I always hold your hand at takeoff?

I'm not scared at all now of anything.

So, at least you've achieved that.

I'm sorry.

I'm no fun.

I got poisoned.

I'm so fucking poisoned.

What else did you do last night?

Henning Sawyer.

Take his fucking treasures down.

Are you cold?

Are you cold?

Do you want to freeze to death?

Henning Sawyer.

Do you understand me? What are you doing?

Just ask him a few questions. Russian bastards spit at me too. You can't do

that.

A bunch of them were drinking last night.

We just want to know what else they were doing.

Harry, come.

Do you know the names of this man?

Kieran Donnelly.

Jake Roach.

And that's Henning Bergstrom.

Slut. Don't worry about him.

Nobody likes him.

My dad says he's not.

Yeah.

I want to go home.

Carrie, you can't stay on your own.

But you can come too.

There's loads of room.

We could wait there together for dad.

Okay. Okay.

Where have you been?

The teachers.

There's all other kinds of weird shit, funnels and scales and stuff.

What's all this?

Where did you get that?

His house.

I broke in.

Why? I knew he wasn't there.

He's a feeder.

Yeah, not only that.

Huh?

No, what are you going to do?

What's more important right now is what you're going to do. You're going to go

and look for Ronnie.

No, I want to be there when you question him. No.

For Christ's sake, Dad. Frank, last night you punched me in the face and I

nothing.

Today, you broke into a man's house.

A man who is only a witness at present. And possibly jeopardized our

investigation. So be very clear.

My next step will be to arrest you.

And that you make yourself scarce and go look for Ronnie. But it's him.

He's a freak and he's got my son involved in all this weird shit. Frank.

Listen to the sheriff.

We'll handle it.

How did you... Never mind that.

Well, these were taken during a hunting trip.

It's tradition here to...

Anoint the kids with the blood of the first kill.

I want a lawyer.

That can be arranged.

I'm not answering any questions without a lawyer.

Okay.

We can do this without questions.

I'm not having any... We'll talk about literature.

I read this book once. It was about religion.

And I'm not a particularly spiritual guy.

It surprised me.

And there was an image in the book that stuck with me. It's the image of the

world as an aquarium.

And inside it is human life.

Like all the little fishes.

And we're looking at them from all different perspectives and angles and in

different lights.

Peeping Tom.

Yeah, I guess so, yes.

Something like that, yeah.

Maybe that's what God is, a voyeur, a great cop up in the sky looking down at

us.

That's an interesting thought.

Anyway, I look into this aquarium and I see Marcus.

Marcus, the town school teacher, the lover of Russian literature,

of dogs, of classic 80s vinyl.

And I also see...

Marcus, who's a man that has a very interesting relationship with his

I'm assuming that is mum.

My mother has nothing to do with this voyage.

Oh, he get these things? No questions.

Remember, it goes both ways.

What do you want to tell him?

Surely, all our life is lying in a morgue.

After attacking her own mother.

Shirley?

She's dead, Marcus.

We found her dead.

Your girlfriend.

Just like Liam Sutter was your pupil.

I would never hurt...

I loved her.

Love.

You were feeding her to death.

I'm innocent.

No.

One way or another, you're a killer.

You don't know what.

A science.

What you're looking for.

You throw all this stuff at me.

And you obviously want some reaction.

He remained calm.

He got angry.

Sarcastic.

Tearful.

And all I feel...

It's like laughing.

Like I'm just going to laugh.

When do you anoint it?

With the blood, I mean.

When it is ready.

When I was a boy, we used to go down to the beach.

One time during the war, we found an American airman sitting down there all

alone outside his tent, just staring at the sea.

We cheeked him.

Hey, mister, why aren't you flying your plane?

And he said he was just about to go on his last mission.

Packed up, gave us what was left of his food and...

We watched him head off.

Just like that.

No lonely impulse of delight.

No rage at the dying light.

Just matter of fact.

She never knew if he survived.

But I wish I could be like that airman.

Maybe he's living in retirement in Idaho.

Do you believe, Henry?

Do you truly believe this?

It doesn't matter what I believe.

People need myths and stories.

So what do you make of it?

And now you want my opinion?

I didn't say I liked you.

I think a man who's playing a part laughs.

He doesn't say he feels like laughing.

Do you know what I mean?

I think we should let him go home and feed Pierre.

You think we should let him go?

Yeah, because what do we have?

Weak circumstantial stuff, a bunch of psychological nonsense, and a lot of

inadmissible weirdness stolen from his house.

I suspect the lawyer will have a lot of questions about that.

I guess we can always read him back in.

Yeah, but I don't think he's the fish that we want.

Carrie, look over here.

Carrie.

Carrie, look over here.

Carrie.

Carrie.

Gary? Gary, love, is that you?

Look, love, it's your mum.

We don't know if we have a serial killer. So far, the casualty rate is

We think she died of natural causes.

Natural causes? Don't give me that. This is all down to us. The island won't let

us do this.

It will shrug us off.

The animals are already showing the signs.

Tell them.

I'm a newcomer. I don't think... In general, I'm not sure about that kind of

Gaia theory. I think it works more as a metaphor than science in many ways. But

it's true. There appear to be some strange behavior among the animals here.

are we doing?

Building ice hotels?

Investors over people every time for the governor.

You don't know what you're talking about, you old cunt.

Investors are people. And they're the only ones that matter to her, aren't

You sharing the cake back, are you? Shut your mouth, Henry.

Hold fire. Hold fire with your gun. They shot

himself.

Accidentally. Get that idiot out of here and find him a plaster or something.

Put your guns down and keep your safeties on, for God's sakes.

Dan, why'd you release the teacher?

Marcus, who's Clem?

He's obviously connected.

He's been manipulating people in some way. Shirley, my son Liam, they're his

victims. Okay, okay.

Wait, wait, wait.

Nobody knows anything about them.

Exactly.

When everybody drops in, our shops will just be... People are scared, Dan.

That's all we really want you to understand here.

Nothing like this has ever happened here before. This isn't fortitude.

My son, my little boy, is just lying there, and we need answers.

I know. I understand.

We don't need your understanding.

We need to know what you're going to do about it.

Exactly. Now, you sort this out, or we will. Oh, yeah.

By shooting off a few more toes.

This is your job. It's not ours.

You're the one we pay to take care of shit like this. We need answers.

I've just been to see Margaret Ellardyce, our doctor.

And I... I sat by her bed and I...

I thought about all the times she's helped me and been there for me, for all

of us, really.

She gave us our jab. She came out in driving blizzards when our children were

ill.

I want us to think of her for a moment.

Let's have a moment of silence and thought for our good friend who's lying

hospital bed right now, fighting for her life.

Thank you.

Now if we can all stay calm, I'm sure we can work together to overcome this

difficult time. We need help from the mainland.

Yes.

And we will have it.

Nothing.

How come that's on?

What happened?

Okay, it's okay, Carrie.

Do you know where the fuse box is?

It's by the back door.

Okay.

Wait.

Show me the way.

Night, Eric.

Night.

Ciara!

I thought that the governor handled that very well.

Well, that's why she's the governor.

You handled it pretty well, too.

Casualty rate is one.

Good point.

Yes.

Assuming that Bill Pettigrew was what you said he was, and not a casualty.

Ask me any question you want.

Don't worry, I will.

Okay. Okay.

See you tomorrow, then.

Yep.

Hey, how was this Carrie?

She's asleep at last.

Good.

I just wanted to check and see if you're okay.

We're fine.

Bit of a scare when all the lights went out, but it was just a few tripping.

Okay.

You were nice earlier.

With Carrie.

Kind.

She's a good girl.

We need to find her dad.

She sounds like her big sister.

Do you like that idea?

Yeah.

when I came here.

I haven't handled things well, have I not?

What things?

Us.

What us?

Carrie!

Carrie.

My dad, he was here. I saw him.

Carrie, there's no one here, okay?

I think it was just a dream, okay?

Come on.

Let's get you back to sleep, okay?

I have to try and get her back to sleep.

Hey! Hey!

Sus aguas dulces ya están saladas. Ya no eres mío, eres el

mar. Ya no eres mío.

Now pay attention, because it's my turn to take the lesson.

It's truth time, you fucker.

We keep the lid on Elodie. If nobody knows her condition, then nobody knows

Liam and Shirley carried out identical attacks.

I would like to know how he walked seven miles in his shirt sleeve and didn't

freeze to death. Though you want to examine Bailey's brain.
