What did people say when I decided to move to Concordia?

I think you can guess.

They thought I was insane.

"Nuts".

- I recall "mad". - "Bonkers".

"You must be crazy."

I thought about cameras in the bathroom,

in the bedroom when I'm with my boyfriend.

We're watched, but not to spy on us, to keep us safe.

I'm a journalist.

I was covering political protest and got thrown in prison.

I was labelled a dissident,

because someone reported me for something I didn't say.

We know what it's like to feel fear, to be bullied, online and offline.

To have someone target your child.

As a journalist, you know, words might be used against you

or fake words might be attributed to you.

The abuse of power, it lives in the shadows.

In Concordia, the cameras mean there are no shadows to hide in.

The AI means that can't happen.

If there is something your child doesn't want to tell you,

but you need to know...

- you'll be told. - The system supports us.

And we all support each other.

So call me insane.

- So call us nuts. - Mad.

So call me crazy.

Hey.

- What are you doing out here? - I couldn't sleep.

Are you okay?

I'm glad you're back.

So, what's the feeling at HQ?

It's a first for everyone.

But they're managing?

Those I've spoken to are.

And outside the building, in the streets?

I mean, it's different for everyone.

It feels like the longer someone's been here, the harder it is.

The more it feels like things have been turned upside down.

Well, anything like this was bound to cause a ripple.

I'd say it's more than a ripple.

People are strong. They adapt.

- Who else knows? - That Oliver hacked into the system?

We were all in the room together: A.J., Mathilde, Juliane, Thea.

Which means Fatemah knows.

How often do they talk?

Thea and Fatemah?

I don't know. It hasn't come up. I assume she's checking in.

Why are you asking?

She'll be arriving tomorrow, and I think the fewer people who know, the better.

We can't keep it from Fatemah.

No, and we shouldn't. She's been with us since day zero.

So, she has every right to send someone in.

Sorry.

But things have a tendency to spiral if you're not careful.

So, we need to be careful. You know?

Control who hears what when.

Thanks.

We're still digging, but right now there's no evidence to indicate

that Oliver triggered false alerts for anyone

but the women he dated.

So far.

What is that supposed to mean?

It means I find it hard to believe this stopped with spying on four women.

That kid got lucky. Stumbled on some bug in the system.

He got lucky four times, at least.

Concordia was not hacked by some 23-year-old incel.

- It's impossible. - He did it.

You saw the same footage I did.

I'm sure he'd have bragged about it on hacker forums.

I've got an off-site analyst who can scan these communities,

see if he picks up anything on Concordia.

We don't want to use anyone from the outside

until we've exhausted our resources.

I'm not going to tell him why. And he's not going to ask.

It's standard in any corporate investigation we undertake.

Still, I would hold off for the moment.

Give us time to dig in deeper ourselves.

Why not do both?

If we pick up any chatter,

it could give us a clue to the exploit he used to hack the system.

It could also reveal followers

or customers, corporations, even countries.

Thea is right.

We can't forget what a valuable asset we have here.

We're sitting on a gold mine of data: 20 years of footage for every resident.

Protecting that data is just as important

as the immediate well-being of our residents.

Mathilde, check Oliver's finances.

See if he was getting outside payments.

It's possible he got in over his head and tried to back out.

Maybe it was an accident. Maybe Oliver did get lucky.

But whatever got him killed, we need to get to the bottom of it.

Thea, bring in your guy.

Oliver had started spending a lot of time outside of Concordia.

Leaving at night, coming back early the next morning.

If you're asking me where he went, I don't know.

Once Oliver got his own place, there was no way I knew where he was,

unless he told me.

Did he ever mention anyone he might have been visiting?

He was very private.

Other than people at work, he never really mentioned anyone.

Did he ever talk about his life here, about Concordia, in a disparaging way?

No.

Why would you ask that?

We're not suggesting that he did, Cathy.

We're just trying to understand as much as we can about him.

Doesn't the system do that?

In town, yes, but it doesn't tell us what he was doing once he left,

which is why we're asking you.

Well...

he was happy at work, proud of what he did,

but I think he was hoping to move into something more creative,

still with computers.

There was a... a course at the university.

- Azeem, you remember? - In game design.

He asked me to write a recommendation.

Yeah, but I didn't think it was a good idea.

Why?

He was already spending so much time in front of a computer at work, at home.

He said he didn't have time for anything else, for friends,

except for the ones he met online.

I kept saying to him that he should go out and meet real people...

but he said they were just as real to him

as anyone he met at work or anywhere else.

Do you know if he ever met his online friends in real life?

Yeah, well, if he did, he never told me.

We won't trouble you any longer.

Hey, why didn't you ask her?

- About what? - About the women Oliver dated.

She said not to tell her anything he wouldn't have wanted her to know.

We can't not ask her something, if it could help find his murderer.

Oliver's right to privacy didn't end with his death.

Any footage we see, as well as anything we learn from it, must be protected.

And so must his mother.

If that means not telling her something

that may change the way she feels about her son...

It's not for us to tell her.

When did this happen?

Within the last six months.

Oliver was considering a course in game design at the university.

If he visited, he may have been caught by CCTV.

There's nothing to see that late at night.

It matches the distance.

But he was gone all night.

Maybe he was meeting someone.

It's a big campus.

With lots of cameras.

Exactly. We don't have the people to cover all that.

Start with the Game Design building.

Hallways, entrances. Okay?

Fine. I'll keep you posted.

Great. Thanks.

You found these on all four women's phones?

Yeah.

Oliver must've used the system's machine learning against it.

Taught it to report drug dealing when it picked up that image.

I'm not seeing anything to do with drugs here, let alone dealing them.

Why didn't Oliver's activity trigger an alert?

Why didn't the system catch him before this?

He wasn't messing with code.

Feeding new data into the system

for machine learning is part of his remit.

There wouldn't have been anything to flag.

The GIF he used, does it mean something?

Our AI ran it against all his online activity inside Concordia.

And found this from six months ago.

Oh, fucking hell. That was close. Okay.

A survivor and with one whole kill. Impressive.

- I'm just trying to stay alive. - Alive and not much else, Ronald.

My handle is Roald, not Ronald. It's Norse for ruler.

- And what's Norse for one kill? - Yours is TheHunter.

- Is there a more generic handle? - 18 kills. I hunt. It fits.

Whatever.

- Bye. I'm looking for my Concordia Clan. - Wait, wait, wait.

Did you say Concordia?

Wanna chat private?

- Yeah. Okay. So... - Your clan are all dead.

Fantastic.

- Still, what do you want? - I was gonna go to uni in Concordia.

- Look out. - Shit. Fuck, fuck. One on the right.

- Are you shooting? - One on the left.

Got them both. Thanks for the help.

Yeah, well, I was saving ammo for the next wave.

Yeah, sure.

So, you didn't get into Concordia?

- That's awkward. - Actually, I chose Gothenburg.

I wasn't into all that meditation and kombucha bullshit.

And seems nobody in Concordia is good at gaming.

Why exactly did we need to chat privately about this?

I'm just kidding. Chill.

So, where's your base?

- In Spiral? - No, your base in Concordia.

- Obviously Spiral. - Charming.

- My base is the Ice Pass. - What's going on in the Ice Pass?

I haven't been there in ages.

Yeah, not much is going on there.

- I just... I just mod it. - Mod?

What, like, new wallpaper, home decor?

Exactly, I planted flowers.

Flowers suit you, Roald.

Get down. You're completely in the open.

Any idea how long these two were playing Spiral?

It looks like they spend the next four weeks together in the game.

Blowing away enemies and levelling up.

Modern-day romance.

The AI has also flagged this from one of their later sessions.

- He's almost dead. Push. Push. Push. - Now! Go! Go! Get him.

- He's one shot. - Fuck.

- Okay, I'm finishing him. - Sick.

Nice shot.

- Fuck, yeah. - You're getting better, you know.

That's the nicest thing you said to me.

- Don't get used to it. - I would never.

Down to ground level? We could hit up the tunnels.

- Yeah, sweet. - How old are you, by the way?

- You think I'm some 50-year-old creep? - Yeah, that was my fantasy.

Ideally a middle-aged racist, sexist, living in his parents' basement.

Well, I'm 22, not racist or sexist, and I have my own place.

Look at you, showing off.

I'm 22 as well. I have a flatmate, though.

Loser.

Want to chat offline? Then I can check if you're actually 22.

- Yeah. That'd be cool. - I'll send you an encryption key.

I don't trust the regular apps.

Then a dramatic drop-off in both their game play.

Five months ago.

Around the time he started leaving town at night.

I can see you now, love.

I was just thinking of you.

Hi, Mum, I didn't know you knew how to work the tablet.

Is Alex with you?

I'm not incompetent, you know.

I did keep you in one piece, after all.

I know. Just that broken arm.

After climbing in that tree I told you not to climb.

- It was a bike, Mum. - I think I'd know.

Mum.

Hey, you're online?

I didn't break your tablet computer, if that's what you're thinking.

I'm not thinking anything.

Your father invited him over.

Albert.

It's Alex, Mum.

That's what I said.

So...

How are you doing, Thea?

- Everything good? - Just say if you want your tablet back!

- That was a lot. - No, no, it's okay. It's all good.

It's been up and down the last couple of days, to be honest.

You didn't tell me.

No, I...

I didn't want to worry you.

But she had another episode over the weekend.

Shit, Alex.

I'm so sorry you're having to deal with this on your own.

How's Talon?

He's... he's just confused by it.

It's hard when she doesn't act like the Nana he knows.

For me, too. And you. All of us.

I just don't know what to...

Shit, gotta go. Love you.

Love you, too.

- You sound concerned. - I am, Fatemah. Very.

The footage the Court of Review agreed to release is connected to a crime.

It's in everybody's interest to have it solved.

Yes. But we never had to go to the courts to unlock footage

or give the police access to it.

But the only one compromised was Oliver Miller.

For now, yes.

My point is, it could expand if we aren't careful.

It could become his mother, friends, people he works with, lives near...

They could all become people of interest.

I sent you Thea for a reason.

I understand that.

You need to understand this is different than your other investments.

You don't have to be concerned about my investment.

I'm in this for the long haul, Juliane.

I believe in you, what you've done and what you're going to do.

You're building a world for the future.

Everybody involved is lucky to be a part of it.

I'm on my way to the airport now. See you first thing tomorrow.

We found a student in Gothenburg that Oliver Miller was visiting.

Elodie Cailleux, 22 years old, studying political science.

She plays under the handle TheHunter.

She's all yours.

Hey, Karyn.

Thank you for meeting with us.

- Is it okay if I ask you some questions? - Yeah.

So you saw Elodie leaving Saturday morning.

- Can you tell me what time that was? - I'm not totally sure.

Was it early?

Well, she'd been out the night before and came back late.

And then I thought I heard her leave the apartment early that morning.

Did she say anything? How did she seem?

I didn't see her. I wasn't up then.

I wasn't...

I didn't pay attention.

Hey, it's not your fault, okay?

Did you know Oliver well?

Well? No.

He slept over in Elodie's room sometimes.

She would never have done anything to him.

She's only a person of interest at the moment,

but we do need to talk to her.

Well, that actually means a suspect, right?

Her nickname is Mouse.

- She's not like that. - And TheHunter?

Her gaming handle?

For that you think she's some kind of hunter? That makes no sense.

Have you tried to contact her since she left?

Yes. I texted her about whatever... Normal shit.

None of the messages went through.

I don't know where she is.

- Okay if I look around? - In my room?

Yeah, both your rooms.

Go with her.

Well, okay. Whatever.

I'm not involved in this.

We know, Karyn. We know.

So, we tracked Oliver's overnight trips

to a campus at the University of Gothenburg visiting Elodie Cailleux,

a 22-year-old political science major.

Avid gamer, no criminal history. Last seen a few hours after the murder.

The police triggered an Interpol red notice.

Do you think he might have told her about what he did?

- Or done it for her? - That remains to be seen.

If there was a financial link between them, it's not apparent.

No big withdrawals or deposits, and his spending didn't change either.

Anything more on the security breach?

We have a team running scans for intrusions and backdoors.

So far, nothing.

A.J., when can you be sure there are no further security issues?

- 24 hours. - Good.

What's the line with Hanna till then?

We keep this under wraps until we know what's what.

We need to run the expansion announcement test tonight.

- And what do we tell the people here? - Why tell them anything?

Because the system which is meant to keep them safe isn't.

- It will after we complete our review. - If they find out before?

- That's not going to happen. - The road map's the same as with Hanna.

Once we find who's behind the breach, we tell the residents.

- And that it's fixed. - A.J., Mathilde, you should get started.

And if we could have the room, please.

The Kopwitz referendum passed by a majority.

Narrow, but still a majority, because Hanna Bremer pushed it through.

And her opposition is determined.

They'll use anything they can to overturn this referendum.

It's a risk, I agree.

But going forward with Hanna withholding something so important

seems fundamentally wrong to me.

Do you think she'd want to know?

Why wouldn't she?

If you tell her, she'll have to decide whether to go public or not.

If you don't and it comes out, then we're to blame, not her.

As for the people here, I agree with Noah.

Better to let them know once the problem's been solved.

Fatemah, people come here, because they believe in us.

That is our currency.

Their trust in our promises, and one of those is total transparency.

Once we compromise that,

we risk Concordia becoming everything we didn't want it to be.

I know you understand that.

I envy your passion, Juliane, and I wish I shared it.

- You do. - In part.

But I grew up in a world in which change seemed impossible.

I didn't have the luxury of being transparent.

Which is not to say that I don't understand

how important transparency is for you.

Only to say, to preserve it in the long term,

you might need to compromise in the short.

The motive for the murder is still unclear.

The police haven't found any link to intelligence services

or corporate espionage agencies.

Nor any connection to Oliver's job at Concordia HQ.

Anything else I should know?

No.

Concordia coming to Kopwitz is not some bridge or motorway project.

My political career hangs in the balance.

The opposition would do anything to see it fail.

I know, Hanna.

But your political capital will always be safe with us.

See you tonight.

See you tonight.

- There you go. - Thanks.

It was not easy to get hold of this...

Thanks.

It took a lot of calls, a lot of pressure.

Surely that's no problem for you.

Thanks.

I'm surprised a social media giant like ONA Software

accepted our court order to hand over user data.

I don't know if I should be relieved or worried.

What are we doing here?

We need to stay here for a bit.

Why? You said we had to keep moving.

I know what I said.

What are you not telling me?

The Gothenburg police.

They've been sharing your name, your photo, everything.

- Fuck. - Yeah.

Can't we wait until night and then just keep going?

We have to be extra careful now.

He'll tell us when it's safe to move.

He? Who? Leon?

Yeah.

I know it's a lot coming at us,

but all we can do is listen to him carefully,

and do exactly what he wants us to do.

Okay?

Bennu, Denpo, Gawa, Valentina, Ivan, Victor,

and finally, Abraham, Kekoru and Moses...

we welcome you.

Some of you have been here before, for others this is a first.

Every month, we celebrate our newest arrivals

and today we welcome families from New Zealand,

Ethiopia, Moldova and Myanmar.

And in just a few days' time...

we welcome the German city of Kopwitz as well.

So many, many new beginnings to celebrate.

Let's raise a glass and welcome them all warmly.

- Cheers. - Cheers.

Cheers.

Welcome. Cheers. Come.

Thea, may I introduce Dr Peter Blom?

He was an early and vocal champion of Concordia and sits on our board.

- Nice to meet you. - And you.

Peter has led most of our medical initiatives

and he's been working on our Genie programme,

the future of healthcare:

a pinhead-sized microchip embedded under the skin.

No need for replacement.

It can predict the usual diseases, ailments,

cancer, heart disease, dementia,

but can also go much further.

The intent is for it to work hand in hand with Concordia AI.

Using the data you have to provide real-time care?

360-degree holistic life care for residents here

and in all the expansion cities.

It's all in the early stages of development.

If things go well, we'll be discussing this more frequently in the near future.

Interesting choice.

A rare piece, not easy to find.

My lucky day.

Our lucky day.

You knew I would come, surely.

Seemed likely someone would.

What are you looking for?

The title on my card says crisis containment,

but it's not really what I do.

Nine times out of ten my job is to save people from themselves.

If there was something you needed to know, I'd tell you, believe me.

Being naturally sceptical is helpful for my work.

It's nothing personal.

Why do I feel like you already know all this?

It's a look behind the curtain.

Most people don't get that opportunity.

So...

what do you see?

It confirms what I know. What the media love to talk about.

Mother at 18, widowed at 21.

And then leaves East Germany at 22.

Creates Concordia at 34.

That's the part where the media start to tell their own version of the story.

Concordia wasn't just my dream.

It was Magnus' dream, too.

Noah's stepfather.

For Magnus, transforming the city he grew up in into something new

and for me...

Well, you know that part.

The media seem to think

the single East German mother angle gets more attention.

That's the narrative they forced into truth.

Does seem an odd turn.

Child of an oppressive surveillance state

sets up a full surveillance town?

Strange and sometimes powerful things can happen

in response to a great collective pain.

The Skällrea school shooting is central to your story.

That story has been covered more than I care for, if I'm being honest.

Your town is centred around a memorial to it

and it could have been worse from what I understand.

If the other student hadn't picked up the dropped gun?

That's what they say, yes.

Another narrative perhaps.

Taking life, even to stop others being taken, that marks someone.

Their name has still never been released.

Thea, I understand why it might seem strange to you

that my dream would be Concordia after where I came from,

but...

the problem is never the technology.

It's the intention of the people who use it.

People don't usually start out with bad intentions.

Shall we?

What was Elodie's relationship like with Oliver?

I never thought she felt the same way about him.

What makes you think that?

She saw one other person.

- Was it a woman? - Yes.

Did you ever talk to her?

Not really. They were always hiding away.

It was like she was trying to keep her to herself or keep it quiet.

Obviously impossible in a flat this size.

Never got a name, before you ask.

Anything specific you remember about her?

I think she was German for the accent.

Red hair, hipster haircut.

I never got why Elodie bothered with Oliver.

It just seemed so obvious

that she wasn't into him as she was with her.

Did this woman know about Oliver?

She must have. They never overlapped.

She always seemed to leave right before Oliver arrived.

It was too frequent to be a coincidence.

Elodie's roommate said that the girlfriend

would always leave before Oliver arrived.

Here we go.

Is that Karyn?

Can you zoom in?

No, I can't zoom in.

No facial recognition either. It's a student dormitory.

But that's definitely not Karyn.

Hang on.

The legislation includes ambitious targets

to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and promote renewable energy sources,

signalling a firm step towards a greener and more sustainable future.

Health update:

authorities have announced an important milestone

in the fight against a global health crisis.

Vaccination rates have reached a record high,

providing increased protection for communities

and promoting hope for a gradual return to normality.

Hey, is everything okay? Got it? Okay. Thanks.

- Hey, all set? - Yes. All set.

Ole.

Ole! How's the upstream to Kopwitz?

Ole!

- Sorry? - The upstream? It's ready?

Yes, everything seems to be working fine.

Okay.

Alright, everyone in position, please.

Cameras.

Sound.

Okay, I think we're ready.

Okay, let's start.

No, this isn't right.

We need the live feed to be playing over there.

But that's just for the projection.

If the live feed is there, the statue is in view.

It'll get in the way.

The statue is a memorial to the children we lost.

Their tragic deaths gave birth to Concordia.

That's why I want it over there. That's why I always want it in view.

And on the day, no seats.

It's meant to be casual. A family event.

Okay, let's check the intro sequence.

Ah, very good.

Looks great, right?

Juliane?

- Hanna, can you see me? - I can see you. Hello.

Our technical team is just making final preparations.

Okay, sounds good.

We want to have the memorial in the foreground and then...

We trust in Concordia that our footage,

our data, our rights are safe and secure.

They're honest about the usage of our data:

how it's gathered, what is gathered and how we benefit from it.

- What's going on? - Juliane?

No one ever really sees that footage unless there is a reason to.

What's it like living in Concordia in one word? Secured.

Secured.

What...

Can you hear me, Juliane?

Cut the power, for fuck's sake!

Disconnect the main. Disconnect the main! Ole!
