S1 E1: Prime Minister Jesper Berg’s main political promise was to turn off all oil and gas production and make the transition to Thorium Energy. After major upheavals in the Middle East this choice has led to a recession, and has also caused an energy crisis in Europe. The EU has started serious protests against Jesper Berg's proposal. The Prime Minister will therefore hold a press conference where everyone expects him to stop the oil cut-off, but Jesper Berg does the opposite. He maintains the promise and claims that Thorium will replace oil. Meanwhile restaurant owner Bente Norum informs her employees that she cannot afford to pay them any longer. They are on the brink of bankruptcy.Hans Martin Djupvik (HM) is Jesper's bodyguard and is responsible for the Prime Minister's security at the press conference. While leaving HM fails to prevent Jesper Berg from being kidnapped by Russians in a helicopter. Russia has been commissioned by the EU to enter Norway and take control of oil production.
