-How was the roof?
-The police are coming.

-The pigs! We have to get out.
-Fuck.

-They've surrounded the school.
-What now?

-I won't let them beat me up.
-They're just waiting for an excuse.

-We'll beat them up.
-Motherfuckers!

Oh my God.

Fuck.

No, stop it.

No! Oh my God!

Stop it! No!

Manzano!

-Manzano!
-No!

-No!
-Manzano!

Manzano.

Manzano.

Hey, Manzano.

That's your name, isn't it?

Pierre Manzano.

You were arrested 20 years ago
in Genoa at the G8 summit, right?

With globalisation opponents
and environmental activists.

THE HAGUE / EUROPOL

Talk and I may be able to help you.

If you don't,
you may spend a long time in prison.

Do you understand?

We weren't arrested in Genoa,
we were beaten up.

And your colleagues
were convicted of police violence.

After that,
your life was never the same again.

Did you manipulate
the smart meters to trigger a blackout

as belated revenge?

I didn't manipulate them.

But you know how to.
That's very specialist knowledge.

No one's listening to me.
I told your colleague multiple times.

-Do it again.
-It's my job, my work.

So that means you're in a position

to manipulate the meters?

Yes.

Lisa?

Marie?

Lisa, Marie?

15 HOURS WITHOUT POWER

Lisa?

Marie?

Lisa?

Marie?

Lisa?

Hello?

-Did you find anything?
-No.

Are you certain
the children were on the train?

Maybe they missed it.

My parents-in-law put them on the train.

If they hadn't, they'd have let me know.

We'll find them.

We'll do everything in our power.

You emptied the accounts
of two prosecutors and a judge,

who were responsible
for the acquittals in Genoa.

You donated the money
to an anti-whaling organisation

and to an NGO called...

Orangutans Are Better People.

Manzano.

You haven't finished with the past.

Did you manipulate
the smart meters to get revenge

on an unjust Italian justice system

with a Europe-wide blackout,

because it's the system's fault
that you are now delivering pizzas?

Have you checked?

Are you 100 percent sure

that manipulated smart meters
are the cause of the blackout?

I cannot discuss
the investigation with you.

Right, good. Bravo.

I find a bug in my smart meter,

drive 155 miles
to my power supplier to tell them.

But you suspect me and can't talk to me?

I think I've done my duty.

-And now I'll do my duty.
-What do you want from me?

BOLZANO, MANZANO'S APARTMENT

BERLIN, INTERIOR MINISTRY

-Hi.
-Hi.

-When did they wake you up?
-4.40.

-Found the cause of the fluctuations?
-No. You?

No, we can't explain it either.

-Morning.
-Morning.

God.

Shit.

Stock exchanges are closed...

...dramatic double-digit losses
occurred in New York...

Shelters are being
set up in Scandinavia...

-And?
-They've disappeared.

Police, train conductors,
everyone's looking for them.

How will they contact you?

There's a dedicated line
to the railway management.

Keep me informed.
And Carmen, can you call my in-laws?

To check that Lisa and Marie
were on the train.

Yes.

-What's new?
-As we feared.

Huge problems in care homes and hospitals.
Evacuations are being prepared.

And our crisis meeting
with the electricity bosses?

No heating, and windows open beforehand.

-It was warmer outside than in here.
-Definitely.

-Cold?
-We've been waiting since...

Yes, while we have emergency power here,

the people are facing cold,
darkness and water shortages.

Hundreds of thousands are stranded,
parents searching for their children.

We've had no power for 17 hours.
What is the problem?

We at the German Association
of Energy and Water Industries

are aware of our responsibility
to every one of our customers.

This is clearly a Europe-wide problem.

-We're working hard to find a solution.
-I want reliable information.

When exactly will the power be back on?

We can't guarantee that basic service
will be restored in the next few hours.

There are undefined problems
with starting up the power stations.

Our reserves
can't compensate for the fluctuations.

Counter trading measures don't help.
The grid switches off automatically.

This means that we have a permanent
and total failure of the power supply.

And we don't yet know what the cause is.

Are you awake?

Yes.

What's that?

There you are. Well, come on in. Welcome!

Would you like something to eat?

Come here.

Ms Michelsen, do you have a minute?

Why did you leave
the CEOs waiting in the cold?

It won't happen again.

We have to declare a state of emergency.

-And inform the public.
-We've talked about this.

The truth will come to light
sooner or later, anyway.

Better later. That's the view
of the interior minister and chancellor.

We wait till there's
something positive to report.

Is this
about the state elections in March?

I don't get it. There's a storm brewing
and we're barely reacting?

That's what you do in a storm,
you hunker down.

G8 COSTS A LIFE.
HE WAS ARMED AND VIOLENT, SAYS THE POLICE

VOGT BUTCHERS

What does your mum do, then?
What's her job?

She works for the government.

I'll go out and try to contact your mum.

You'll stay here and you'll promise me
you won't get up to any mischief.

-Will you take us to her?
-Can't we come with you?

It's far too dangerous out there.

You don't need to be scared.
I'll lock the door.

European stock exchange trading
is suspended.

Price slumps are expected.

In Stuttgart, Duisburg and Rostock,

there was looting
and attacks on rescue workers.

To support police on the ground

we urgently need emergency generators.

The shortage of drinking water is leading
to catastrophic hygiene conditions

in all densely populated urban areas.

We've activated 5,200 emergency wells.

That water isn't always clean.
The wells haven't been used for ages.

-Then give people Zytosil.
-Zytosil?

Sterilisation tablets. And medical care?

Doctor's practices
and pharmacies are closed.

We have a huge deficit
in patient services.

Extent of fuel supplies?

1,200 of 2,000 hospitals in Germany
will run out during the night.

The rest
have diesel supplies for three days.

And after that?

What's the plan? What about coma patients?

The intensive care wards?

If we don't do anything,
those patients will die.

We'll keep large hospitals running.

What about diesel
for the emergency generators?

25 million tons of fuel
are in the federal reserve.

Above-ground tanks,
so we don't need electric pumps.

That's the government's reserve.
This is for the chancellor to decide.

We need to talk to him immediately.

Yes, I'll try to get a meeting with him.

Should I speak directly to Severin?

Don't push it.

Hello?

Hello?

Hello?

Hello?

Is anyone here?

Hello?

Stop! What do you want?

I need petrol.

My car broke down. I ran out of petrol.

What do you want?

I need petrol.
Why are the cows making so much noise?

Without power, the pumps don't work.
The milk ferments in their udders.

Excruciating pain.
If you help me, I'll give you petrol.

You want me to milk?

THE HAGUE, NETHERLANDS

-Am I being locked up?
-You're our guest.

Your room should be ready in ten minutes.

There's Wi-Fi at the front of the hotel.

We'll boost it with a repeater.

At 7.30 a.m. and 6 p.m.,
there'll be an hour of electricity.

Password.

We will verify your information.

It would be good
if you could remain at our disposal.

Who says that I want to stay here?

You will remain at our disposal.

You need more generators for the police?

Urgently.

My children were on an ICE train
in Kyritz. No one knows where they are.

You've a squadron
of riot police in Neuruppin, right?

For 30 generators.

Are you a friend of François Bollard's?

No. He just got me a hotel room.

Lucky you. The hotel is fully booked.

-Thanks.
-You're welcome.

Tastes good even without ice.

The EU has its own little world
here in The Hague.

Only important people
are put up in Gloria.

Are you important?

Me?

No, I don't think so.

The Europol head of counterterrorism
gets a room for you.

Come on. Don't act so clueless.

-You're well informed.
-Yes, it's my job.

I'm a journalist.

-Journalist.
-You work for Europol? Or...

Journalist, right?

And that's why you're here.

You thought it was
because of your pretty eyes?

I work for CBM News.

Okay, and how's that meant to work?

No electricity, no reception, no TV?

The internet still partially works.
Radio, too. I report online.

How long do you think it'll last?

That's precisely the problem.
No one knows what's happening.

What should people be prepared for?
How long will the blackout last?

Another twelve hours?

People need to know,

so they can prepare for it.

I don't want you to get
in trouble because of me

and get chucked out of this lovely hotel.

Maybe getting chucked out
wouldn't be so bad.

Come with me.

We'll shine light into the darkness.

Marie!

Lisa!

Marie!

Lisa!

-Marie!
-Where are you?

-Frauke?
-Yes?

You need to see this. On CBM News.

Yes, I'm coming.

-Who is that?
-An IT technician.

He says there's been an attack
on the power system in Europe.

Italy and Sweden confirm
the manipulation of their power grids.

The public's finding this out
from a journalist?

This is shit.

-Minister?
-Yes.

You must work to ensure that
the federal diesel reserve is released.

And we must declare a state of emergency.

That's a matter for each state to decide.

The head of each district
is usually responsible.

If the threat is national,
the federal government takes over.

There's a report on CBM
that the blackout is an attack.

The Criminal Police Office
says that's a rumour.

Soon there'll be looting and riots.

Emergency shelters are overcrowded.
Without water, disease will spread.

This is a national threat,
it's not a job for the states.

The chancellor has been clear on this.

We hunker down and wait.

How could you give an interview like that?

-This is against any agreement.
-We didn't have an agreement.

This isn't a joke.

Look carefully. This is down to you.

This is a global catastrophe
of unimagined proportions.

Do you think it helps
if you trigger mass panic?

I've tried to talk to you.

You're the one who suspects me

and is trying to pin some shit
from my past on me.

I'm listening.

In your opinion,
who's behind the blackout?

I don't know.

But I've been thinking.

I don't think it's just the smart meters
that have caused the blackout.

It's not that simple. There's more to it.

These are all the power stations

that can no longer be started up, right?

Yes.

You can't take every station
off grid with manipulated smart meters.

It's impossible.

The smart meters are the start.

It's only just begun.

We want our electricity back.
We're hungry!

How am I meant to feed my kids?

We pay you!

We deserve to have our electricity back.

Frauke.

-Did you get through to my in-laws?
-Sorry.

It's all a bit difficult right now.

I have to go there.
I have to search for my children.

I'll try to find the conductor again.

-He must have seen them.
-I'll drive to Axel.

Someone's been.
Your ex didn't open the door.

There's no other way.
I have to speak to him.

He has to look for them. Someone
has to be there. I'm going to Axel's.

No matter what it is, you're staying here.

You're representing the crisis team
at the security cabinet.

Can you do that?

The chancellor
will be with us in half an hour.

Herbert, open up!

We've checked the failed power stations
for commonalities.

All power stations were equipped
by the same SCADA manufacturer.

There seems to be a link
between the software and power stations.

The power stations may
have been attacked via the software.

Isn't the software complex?

The attackers would have
to hack each power station

and break through the security measures.

SCADA systems use
standard solutions for ease of use.

It's cheaper, but increases the risk.

So if someone wants to get in...

someone who knows
what they're doing, then they can.

Power stations
are part of the critical infrastructure.

Experts regularly check
all attack possibilities.

-SCADA systems are extremely secure.
-I was one of those experts.

And not that much is invested in security.

Spending millions
on something that may never happen

isn't something that's popular
with politicians or shareholders.

Who is this software supplier?

Talafer AG in Ratingen, Germany.

James Wickley? Talafer AG?

Hartlandt, Criminal Police.

Can you tell me what's going on?

We're investigating a suspected case
of formation of a terrorist group.

Sorry, what?

We suspect your SCADA systems
caused the power outage.

-What?
-Where are your employees?

They're stuck at home.
We can't work without electricity.

We can't boot up the computers
or access data.

Here. The lights are about to go back on.

Brasch, this room is our situation centre.
Viola, get all the employees here.

All of them?

Well...

I'm sorry. It's total chaos out there.

I'll have to try again tomorrow.

Don't be sad. We'll find your mum.

CHANCELLOR'S VISIT
TO THE INTERIOR MINISTRY

Crime, terrorism, war?

Who is capable of an attack like this?

While we're in the dark
as to who caused this,

we focus on the provision of services.

What's the current status?

The federal states
have the situation under control.

The power stations are working
on restoring their capacity.

Capacity...

The European power grid
has completely collapsed.

All media still available
are talking about an attack.

Sorry.

Ms Michelsen heads up
the national crisis team.

The provision of the population with
services can no longer be guaranteed.

We have too few gyms and schools
to evacuate all those affected.

Radio, TV and internet are mostly down.

People are taking the law into
their own hands and if we don't act now,

in the next 24 hours
we will have our first deaths

and we will be the ones held responsible.

Ms Michel...

Your suggestion?

I... As discussed with Minister Severin,

we need to declare
a national state of emergency.

We need to distribute
the 25 million tonnes of diesel

from the federal reserves.

We need to communicate
with the general public.

And I would recommend
a Germany-wide night-time curfew.

THE HAGUE

I studied in Amsterdam,

then went on a fateful trip
round the world with my boyfriend.

And ended up stranded in New York, alone.

New York's not
the worse place to be stranded.

They know how to make a good sandwich.

Stranded is an understatement.

It was a real fiasco.

I was a camerawoman and driver
for an arsehole of a reporter,

who thought he was Bob Woodward.

That's my potted history.

And?

What's your story?

-Is it better?
-You've done your research.

Let's look at your secrets, Manzano.

But there's not much on you.

You seem to lead a boring life.

Or I need to do more in-depth research.

Do you want to show me
your room to start with?

Now?

We could drink
your minibar empty at Europol's expense.

Okay.

Shit.

So, no wife, no children?

-Neither.
-Why?

Is this your research now?

Just curious.

Goes with the job.

Are rooms you get from
the head of counterterrorism luxurious?

Not bad.

Voilà.

We have electricity, heating, internet.

Okay.

My car is in the middle of the road.
You promised me petrol, right?

You can't have it yet.

I need you tomorrow
else the cows will die on me.

But you'll get something to eat.

I need to get back to work.

Enjoy.

I thought Michelsen
handled wellies and iodine tablets.

Did I put you in the crisis team,
so she could walk all over us?

Perhaps we... somewhat underestimated her.

I was made to look an idiot.

The chancellor decided to declare
an emergency. Where will the buck stop?

-The Interior Ministry.
-With me at the Interior Ministry.

We're leaving in ten minutes.

-I'll wait in the lobby.
-What?

We're going to Ratingen.
I'll discuss the details in the car.

We're searching
for the cause of the blackout.

Check the source code
of each element of the SCADA software

and sift through
all the updates of previous years.

An attacker can't enter from the outside
and introduce a virus overnight.

This was planned well in advance.

This is Detective Inspector
Patrick Brasch from the Criminal Police.

He will put you in pairs.

Each line of programme code will be
checked separately by at least two people.

That's millions of programme lines.

If we even find anything
it'll take weeks, if not months.

Then we just have to be lucky.

And you make your own luck.

-How far is it?
-Only two more hours.

And what am I doing in Ratingen?

Finding out if something's wrong
with the software.

And the German police
have a few questions for you.

Like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Olaf Cramme, Wickley's assistant,
says only certain people

can change the source code
and it all has to be approved.

Not everyone can get a code
past the auditors?

Exactly. And we focussed on
senior employees with access rights:

those who are missing
or who we couldn't get hold of.

In the source code archive
we found three people this applies to:

Fazeri, Turner and Dragenau.

-All senior software engineers.
-Jürgen?

Viola, find those three.

Take whatever you need.
This has priority. Yes?

Europol.
A François Bollard wants to talk to you.

Hartlandt speaking.

I shouldn't have let them travel alone.
I should have picked them up.

You didn't let them travel alone,
your ex did.

I don't know what to do.

I just don't know what to do.

I'll try to contact Axel again, okay?

Give me a moment.
I've got a briefing soon.

Yes.

-Mr Manzano?
-Yes.

Hartlandt, Criminal Police. Come with us.
We need to check your computer.

But I'm the one
who told Europol about this.

-I'm here to help.
-Europol asked for our help.

-You're under arrest.
-This can't be right.

I don't understand. Could you explain?

-No.
-The bag, please. The bag.

Who's mata@radna.ru?

Sounds like an email address.
What are you doing on my laptop?

It's evidence.
Will you unlock your email programme?

No, I won't.
I want to know what's going on here.

Let me quote:
"They swallowed it. Europol trusts me.

The SCADA files
at Talafer are top priority now."

Who did you write this email to?

I didn't. I don't recognise
the email or the email address.

-Where did you get it?
-Europol phished your emails.

I see.

Then someone wants to pin something on me.

-My computer's been hacked.
-By whom?

No idea!
Europol, the police, the Russians!

But someone is trying to incriminate me.

Europol can prove
you're in contact with the attackers.

That's why there's
a warrant out for your arrest.

I want to speak to my lawyer.

-First you'll talk to me.
-I know my rights.

You can't hold me.
I won't say anything without my lawyer.

Do we have interrogators nearby?

In Wiesbaden.
They'll let us know when he talks.

-Brasch, take him to Wiesbaden.
-Okay.

Turner's on a Greek island.
We can't question him.

-Why not?
-The military's taken over there.

Martial law has been declared.

That leaves Fazeri and Dragenau.

Rafael Fazeri's apartment building
was evacuated.

He should be in a shelter,
but is nowhere to be found. We're on it.

The other guy, Horst Dragenau,
is senior software engineer at Talafer.

Three days ago,
he booked a flight to Bali.

Have you checked
whether he was on the flight?

Yes. But he's disappeared on the island.

No trace. No hotel,
no apartment, no address.

Senior software engineer Horst Dragenau
goes on holiday, disappears,

and one day later, the blackout starts.

Or he's just at some beach bar.
It could be coincidence, too.

You don't get coincidences like that.

Stay where you are! Manzano!

Stop!

Stop or I'll shoot!
