Original subtitles

People are scared. Nothing like this has ever happened here before. This isn't

fortitude. You called London.

You told them I murdered Stoddard.

Why is he asking her about Billy Patrick?

Patrick was already here.

Ask me any question you want.

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

There's something else going on. Something at work.

Why'd you release the teacher? He's obviously connected.

It's my turn to take the lesson. It's truth time.

Straight into my arms I

tried to caress it But it ran through my fingers

Okay, Jude, that's the pentabor bagel. Stop.

Liam's going to wake up. He'll require pain management for the frostbite

but... I can take him home?

Medically, we've no objection.

But the governor will make that decision.

What your little boy did... God knows what she'll decide.

It's child.

Murdered a stranger.

A young woman attacked her own mother.

The worst thing is that the killer's in your own home, watching television with

you, eating with you, lying beside you in bed at night and could attack you for

no reason.

We keep the lid on Ella Diver.

If nobody knows her condition, then nobody knows that Liam and Shirley

out identical attacks.

We mustn't connect them in public.

They are connected. They're the same. We cannot let fear take hold.

I'll be back in precisely two hours.

And then we'll begin.

What?

ovaries, penis, male and female sex organs developing in parallel.

Do you think that the spontaneous aborts are as a result of this

hermaphroditism, which is a result of some environmental factor?

Maybe, though, there is another theory.

Which is?

The semi -reindeer herders have accounts of similar mass events.

It's whole herds that abort and miscarry. It's whole generations lost to

hermaphroditism.

And they say it happens when a demon lives amongst the herd,

mates with them.

You mean by demon?

Well, there are other incidences in... Hi.

Hello.

Come in.

Hi.

What's among the things we took from the professor's study?

Your name. It might be important.

Hi, Nat.

Hey.

We should go swimming soon.

Now that Thor's here, I miss it.

Yeah, me too.

You would be very welcome to join the two of us.

Okay. Bye.

Bye.

It's from Charlie.

It's authorized research investigation on a protected specimen, Ursus

It's F .M. Polarbeck.

Polarbeck.

Hello, son.

If there's no sign of necrotic debris, I see

no need for further debridement.

Frankly, his recovery is just... That's remarkable.

You're gonna be okay.

I'm gonna take you home.

He'll be disorientated for a while.

If he complains of pain or if he's in distress... He won't be in any pain.

We won't let that happen.

Will we, son?

You think murderers knock?

Sorry.

What do you want?

Some ammunition.

What kind?

A hunting rifle.

Caliber? .30 -06.

Oh, old school.

Yes, I'm something of a classicist.

Very limited options in the .30 -06.

What are you planning to shoot?

Bear. I've got some 180 grain left.

I'm partial to 165 grain.

Nope.

Don't stock it.

Sold out.

Long time ago.

Who bought it?

Maybe I can go beg a few rounds.

Who bought it?

You're asking me who bought the ammunition?

Yeah.

On the off chance.

Where I come from, we don't talk to policemen lightly.

Northern Ireland?

I'm from Fortitude.

Right.

Under Norwegian law, Liam will not be prosecuted.

But, given the seriousness of the offence, the authorities have ruled that

psychological assessment take place.

We're the ones being assessed, aren't we?

Jules and I.

The whole family has to be assessed together to determine what caused Lynn's

behavior.

I'll need your passports.

Frank?

Frank, come here now.

Magnificent. Killed another bear.

Full -grown adult male.

Ate it.

Sorry,

I didn't think that would work.

Ah, okay.

Taking a slice from the frontal cortex.

The gyral pattern is normally formed.

Normal corticomagillary distinction.

This sample will be number two.

There's no evidence of discoloration or historical trauma.

No generalized atrophy.

If they can't find her father.

Well, she doesn't have any other family in town, so I'm looking at other

families that might take her in.

No.

I look after her.

You do that?

She needs to be in her house.

She needs to sleep in her own bed. She can stay here alone.

So I stay with her.

Me too.

Swift to its close ends Life's changing

day Earth grows dim Its

glories pass away

And decay.

And all around I see.

I need thy presence every passing hour.

What but thy grace and foiled attemptless power.

Flew by myself

can guide and stay with me.

O God and sunshine, abide with

me.

Come on, sweetheart.

I brought something for Liam. Did he come home?

Hello.

Your old mum here told me you liked the photographs I take.

I was going to bring you one, but then I had a better idea.

Now, this little fellow here has great power.

He's a tupac.

I think there's something very bad going on in this place.

I'm going to leave here, and you should too.

Leave?

Goodbye.

Bye.

Henry?

I'll tell Liam about you.

Oh, poor governor.

No, no, don't get up. Please, your food will get cold.

You know, the day I arrived in the taxi, the driver said, You see all that snow

out there?

The icicles, the reindeer.

Don't let that mislead you.

This is not Christmas.

Maybe, when all this is over, you can come back.

When the Glacier Hotel's finished, you can spend a long, quiet night up on the

glacier.

Maybe.

May I?

Of course.

Professor Stoddart hired me to look at the effects of pollution and

environmental toxins in apex predators.

Polar bears?

Yes. We're seeing aberrant behavior, cannibalism, psychotic behavior.

What are you proposing?

The tests I carried out on the bear.

I want to do the same with Shirley Allardyce.

This bear attacked and devoured another adult male bear. We don't see that

happen. It's psychotic.

And Shirley Allardyce, I know this sounds strange, but Shirley Allardyce

apex predator.

What?

Well, scientifically speaking, we all are. We were at the top of the food

and Shirley attacked and attempted to kill her mother.

Biomagnification, the toxins accumulate in apex predators.

A seal absorbs a gram of mercury.

So the bear eats 100 seals, that's 100 grams of mercury accumulating in the

bear's liver.

So you...

Want to examine Shirley's brain?

Because if we find what we're looking for, then that means this place is

dangerous. The environment.

It's not safe to live here.

For any animal.

Karen, you want to help?

Four,

knife.

Now you. Work on the

left.

Knife.

What is it?

Shirley stabbed her mum with a fork.

Why did she do that?

I don't know.

Nobody knows.

I saw Shirley in the supermarket next to the fridge.

She was... She was dead.

And I frightened.

Yes. Okay.

I'm going to make sure that you and me are safe.

Okay? I'm going to protect you.

You understand?

Okay.

and you're going to tell me what happened the night Stoddard was

You're going to tell me how you got my son into his house, and how you got my

son's fingernail inside a dead man.

How can you think I never would have... Shirley Allardyce attacked her own

mother, and that was you.

You messed with that poor girl's mind, and her breakdown was your doing. What

Shirley and I had together...

was consensual. There's no point in you talking to me unless you're going to

tell me what it is. It's not anybody's place to tell me otherwise. I will not

listen to bullshit.

This comes off when you're ready to tell me the truth.

Never found the arm.

Yeah, there wasn't much left of him, was there?

Hungry bear.

But you said he was screaming when you shot him, right?

Well, there was enough left of him for Dad.

What are you looking for?

Satisfying answer to outstanding questions.

What questions?

Well, it was minus 17 degrees with a wind chill of a further 10 degrees

when Bill Pettigrew walked out of town.

He was a trained geologist with years of field experience.

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

freeze to death.

I'd like to know.

Why he didn't take his gun.

And I'd like to know why the floorboards in his room are changed.

You'll have to accept that there's some things we'll never understand.

You confessed to me that you shot him while he was being torn apart.

Yes.

With what caliber rifle?

All police issue rifles are the same caliber.

Yes.

I know.

Okay, Hildy, once and for all, you're going to listen to me.

You're not gonna freeze me out any longer. I... Okay.

Okay?

Can I start?

I loved you so much.

You were so funny and smart and kind.

You were the man I wanted most, and you wanted me, and... I couldn't be happier.

But that man would never have done what you've done.

And it's not that I can't forgive you, it's that... you're not my man anymore.

He's gone.

Cancer is eating me alive from the inside out.

So while I still have the strength, I'm going to get the grip of the end.

Make sure it's my ending.

I came to this place, the purity was bracing.

Unsullied.

Stark and fierce.

Now it's all got shat on.

poisoned and polluted fortitude is going down the toilet.

I won't let that happen.

You don't. I don't know about you anymore.

I worry that you might be toxic.

for advantage.

I did it out of love.

I never knew that.

Never knew love.

What have you got there?

What is that?

Frank, leave it.

What the hell is it, Jules? Where did it come from?

He likes it.

No.

Let me see it.

Sorry. No.

Oh, shit.

What the fuck is this thing, Jules?

Where the fuck did he get it?

I don't want you here.

You think he kills, not I.

You can't accept what he did because you know it's your fault.

It's a receipt.

For something you show on the glacier that you want it prepared.

Say something.

Did Pettigrew ever talk about why he was here?

Am I done?

Well, did he or didn't he?

I don't remember.

Okay.

This is what Pettigrew wanted stuffed?

It's an arctic hare.

It's a lovely animal.

You know, they have a sense of humor.

He was a geologist who came to Fortitude looking for something

valuable.

Some treasure.

Did he ever talk about it?

Although I remember.

Henry been giving blood?

I don't know what he does.

He's sick.

He's very sick.

Why don't I interfere with him?

When's he coming back? I'd like to talk to him.

There are so few.

He's not coming back, is he?

Henry?

Henry?

Hildur, the lab is expecting us.

The mainland wants us to fail.

Why would they?

They can no longer afford to subsidize us.

Lunatics clinging to a frozen rock.

Then I'm called. The drill engineers have pulled out the...

Construction teams cancelled the contract, so they're not coming.

You know, occasionally you have these moments of clarity.

You think you're respected.

You're barely tolerated.

At the Glacier Hotel, I'm told that their projections are not as optimistic

ours.

I think the word folly was used.

Is that what you think, too?

You're our governor.

You're not some salesperson for novelty hotels.

This place is in danger.

You're needed.

Truly needed.

You're the one person everyone will turn to and everybody trusts.

I know.

I know how much you're suffering.

Shut your fucking mouth. We have the same question.

Leon, Shirley, what made them do it?

You.

You made them do it.

PFA's were present in Shirley Allardyce, around 70 parts per million.

You think that's what caused Shirley to attack her mother?

We're seeing a pattern.

Well, the beginnings of a pattern.

These toxins are present in...

The brains of both the bear and Shirley is more than just a coincidence.

So what's next?

I propose we carry out another test.

On what?

On Liam Sutter.

What? You want to dissect his brain, liquidize it, and run tests on it? No,

look at his cerebrospinal fluid.

A lumbar puncture would tell us if he's been affected.

And I know what you're doing.

Dehumanizing your victim Please

Help yourself

and tell me what you did Nothing I swear I

swear to God I didn't do anything The procedure is painful

it's

and possibly unethical.

And I don't want us to be railroaded.

By what?

What?

By confirmation bias.

What's that?

This is where you look for results to suit your theory because your self

has become more important than the scientific truth.

Okay, we won't know until we do the procedure on the child.

Thank you. Don't thank me, it's the truth.

I was being ironic.

By you mean sarcastic. All right, enough.

Everything I do from now on is breakage and loss.

Less of you left.

Listen. Listen.

You pulled my son's fingernail. No.

To leave as evidence.

Wait. Like this.

I will speak to the boy's parents, and if they give consent, you'll go ahead.

Well, if you do this, there's no way back.

Okay, no.

Tell me the truth.

Okay,

Mr. Montana, please.

You have something to tell?

No.

Then tell me.

Huh?

All this blood and meth.

Doug's found this glove outside the town.

Crustable blood. And I need to be sure.

Minus 20 last night.

Pizza's ready.

Come on, this is pizza.

It's not gonna bite you.

How would something like this spread?

Blood, saliva, meat, cough.

Could a virus cause this psychotic behavior?

Jason! We have to be prepared for the worst.

Defend the family. Very hard. Everything I am. Tech department have enhanced

this GPR scan, and you won't believe what Pettigrew found.

It mirrors everything.

That's the situation, Sheriff.
