Guys, anyone has seen Miles?
Who are you looking for now?
It could be anyone.
Whose is this?
Nils.
- You kill Miles. - We don't know that.
Come on. I didn't fucking kill Miles.
You believe him?
Nils! Don't die! Don't die!
"I have seven bodies. I've got two missing and Annika."
Where is she?
"Annika Lundqvist. Is an SOS. I repeat. This is an SOS."
I don't know where Annika is.
Maggie. You can't trust her, Johan.
She did it. She kill them all.
You can't believe anything she says, Johan.
But I should believe you...
Those people were my colleagues.
Do you really think I'm capable of... of...
Of that?
As much as a twenty-something girl is capable of it, yeah.
Oh, I'm sure she's playing her part really well.
Batting those lovely doe-like eyes at you...
But why would she do it?
Because someone hired her to steal my research.
Are you telling me that they all died because of your bug?
That "bug,"
is capable of breaking down CO2
a hundred and fifty-three times faster
than the normal rate of photosynthesis.
It can single-handedly end climate change
- Yeah, yeah, yeah. - This is real!
And it's worth billions.
Now you tell me that someone wouldn't pay anything for that.
Or do anything for that.
She wasn't even supposed to be here.
Lars Olander was my first choice.
But a few weeks before we all fly here,
he gets hit by a drunk driver.
So the program sends her instead.
First thing she does, is flirt with my assistant,
the only person apart from Annika and me
who had access to the lab.
Still doesn't explain the murders.
I'm getting there!
Miles,
was edgy those last few days.
He was cagey.
He was head of communications, maybe he'd eavesdropped on her.
I think he blackmailed her.
She finds out, panics, and kills him.
Do you have any proof of what you're saying?
Anything?
Go to the lab.
Top drawer on my desk.
There's a box full of memory cards.
They're all psych evaluations of the whole of my team.
She was a last minute replacement,
so I had no chance to review hers.
She's not who she says she is, Johan.
Look at the psych evaluation,
and let me know if something doesn't check out.
Look, I don't know if Annika is alive or not,
but I bet Maggie does.
And what if I'm right?
"Please state your full name."
"Margaret Emilia Mitchell."
"Good. I guess you know the purpose of this test."
"To make sure I don't snap if I get to Antarctica?"
"I have to evaluate whether you can withstand
the isolation that comes with spending winter
in an Antarctic station.
Don't worry, everything you say here is confidential.
We'll start with the easy ones. Do you drink?"
- "Socially." - "Smoke?"
"... biggest disappointment?
My last relationship, I guess."
"What's your most vivid memory of feeling alone?"
"When I moved to London, to go to college.
I didn't know the city, I didn't know anyone.
Every day I had this two hour commute to get to class,
and the train was always packed.
I'd never been surrounded by more people,
and felt more alone in my entire life."
"So what did you do?"
"I found a strategy.
When I was a kid and the house was very quiet in the morning,
I could always hear the waves from my room.
So sometimes, when I was waking up in my
shitty little flat in Croydon, I would...
keep my eyes closed a little longer
and imagine that sound.
The waves, crashing. And...
it made me feel like I was waking up at home."
Sorry to bother you again.
It's okay.
I wanna ask you about how you got selected to come here.
- Why? - 'Cause I know you lied.
You told our psychologist some story
about hearing the sea from your room when you were a kid...
But according to this you...
You lived like 60 miles from the shore.
They told me that was confidential...
So you lied.
Yes, I lied.
I just told them what they wanted to hear.
That I managed to control my fears when I was younger,
that I was ready for a winter on the ice.
So why did you want to come here so badly?
I checked your resume.
You don't need to be here.
Top of the class. Congratulatory first...
I don't even know what that means.
It's when your professors clap after your thesis presentation.
Okay.
So what are you really doing here, Maggie?
You're talking to someone else.
There's another survivor?
Yes.
Aki?
Arthur.
I came here because of my mother.
Your mother?
My mum...
She had these big dreams.
She wanted adventures.
Set foot on the South Pole, paddle through the Amazon...
She never did.
In my last year at med school, she got cancer, it was...
quick.
Really quick.
We tried to keep her happy...
Optimistic, so I told her about this opening and...
she said I had to take it, no matter what.
"Do this now," she said.
"Promise me you'll do this, and then you can spend
the rest of your life doing that doctor thing at the hospital, or...
wasting your time in front of the tv.
Whatever you want.
Just make sure you live this first."
I promised her I would.
Is that the truth?
Or just another story?
It's the truth.
If you know where Annika is,
please tell me.
Whatever you may have done,
I don't need to know.
I just want her.
I don't remember...
It's like darkness. I...
I see her, crying, and then it...
It just goes away.
You have to believe me.
Okay.
Then tell me...
What happened after you found Nils?
Take your time.
Cause of death is...
severed carotid artery.
Interrupted blood flow to the brain and,
there's massive exsanguination.
It's his daughter.
Bloody hell...
Erik?
Erik was useless.
All he could do was color inside the lines.
And we were in a situation
where there were no lines at all.
This stays between us.
I don't want everybody to panic.
Cover this. Bag him.
We'll put him and Miles in the fridge.
Go!
"Carving a V in somebody's chest...
You're saying Maggie did that?"
What has that got to do with stealing your work?
The Russians have a word for it.
"Maskirovka."
The art of misdirection.
"What she did was so unspeakable,
that we can't stop ourselves from looking at it.
And while we're trying to come up with some...
reason, to make sense of this horror.
We miss what this was really all about."
It's a cover up.
Blood...
is the best camouflage.
Get a hold of Barts Medical School.
Ask for a copy of Margaret Mitchell's file.
Do what it takes to get it.
"Why?"
I want to make sure she is who she says she is.
Nils is...
Well, you all know what happened to Nils...
He was telling the truth.
One of us here... did it.
And whoever did it, he's just getting started.
Maybe it was a friend of Miles who killed Nils to avenge him?
Maybe it ends here.
Ra... Ramon.
He and Miles were really close.
You know, if the cook's a killer you're all pretty fucked.
The killer carved a V into Nils' chest.
Maggie, what are you doing?
They have the right to know.
But what does this mean?
Means we're fucked with a capital V.
He's telling us he's still here,
watching us panic.
Watching us wonder who will be next.
To whomever is doing this. I...
don't know you.
And you sure as hell don't know me.
Please, just stop!
Just let us go!
We won't say anything!
I want to live.
Please.
So, what now, commander?
We stick together.
No. Bloody hell, no!
Look around! The killer is one of us!
This is exactly what the killer wants.
- The killer wants to divide us. - That's not reason speaking,
and you know it.
It's loyalty, it's a misguided sense of morality.
Cold blood, suspicion, distrust!
That might just keep us alive.
When you all go back to civilization,
you all go to church, give each other a hug,
take the dog for a walk, I don't give a monkey's!
But not here!
Here we survive.
Not live, survive.
I want all to look around you,
and tell us if you've seen anything suspicious.
No! Let's not do that.
Oh, come on! Who found him?
I was trying to help him.
Bless the good samaritan.
Did anybody actually see you do that?
- I did. - Really, you?
Wow.
That's perfect! Isn't it charming, guys? Huh?
This two lovebirds sticking up for each other.
What about you, doctor? What about you?
You found the dirty saw that made us think it was Nils.
- Ramon... - And Nils
nearly went "The Shining" on all of us
because he was getting toasty. And who was treating him?
- Shut up! - Just be careful,
because maybe by the time you find your balls
she'll be wearing them as a fucking hunting trophy.
- Ramon! - What?
Aki!
Aki, what are you doing?
Stop it right now!
Okay!
I'm sorry!
So, Aki was violent.
He was scared.
We all were.
Yeah, but he was the only one
to put someone in the infirmary,
wasn't he?
"I checked Ramon over.
He was okay, just some bruises."
"After that I went to check his medical file."
"Everything looked good."
"Really good."
Had you ever seen him like that before?
No, never.
"Gustav to Johan.
Gustav to Johan.
Do you hear me?"
This is Johan, go ahead.
"The satellite is back in range.
All data regarding the storm should be available now."
Okay, coming.
ARE YOU OKAY?
THE CHILDREN ARE WORRIED
"My greatest disappointment is probably...
not reconnecting with my father before he died."
"My grandfather died before I graduated.
I'm the first one in the family to go to college.
He would have been very proud."
"When I'm not on the ice,
I do a bit, but I'm...
I'm a pretty happy guy."
"Yeah, I feel sad.
I think everyone feels sad."
"I was in the army, so...
I'm away from my family for quite some time."
"I don't really have... a lot of family
to be away from, so that's not a problem."
"My daughter...
is my greatest success."
"I missed my dad's funeral."
"My two kids,
Victor and Lily.
Yeah,
absolutely."
"Why are you always looking sad after we had sex?"
"Why do you think?"
"Ebba..."
"Lukas doesn't deserve this."
"Lukas bankrupted you."
"Two wrongs don't make a right."
"It doesn't feel wrong to me...
- ...with you." - "I promised myself I...
I wouldn't do this anymore."
"Ebba, I just need you..."
"Please..."
"Are you recording this?"
"Yes.
It's for us."
"What the fuck is this?
What kind of sick thing is that?"
"This is..."
"What if someone sees this?
What if Lukas sees this?"
"Lukas doesn't need to see this."
- "You blackmailing me?" - "No!"
"Is that you sick way of trying to win me back?"
"But you're always coming back.
You need me as much as I do. Stay, Ebba, please.
Fuck."
Ebba was Erik's ice wife,
back at the old Polaris.
But that was like... eight years ago.
You know Erik,
he just didn't do, "letting go."
When we all came back,
he started calling her.
At home.
At work.
For months on end.
Hanging up,
if Lukas answered the phone.
Like a bloody teenager.
Or a stalker.
Over here...
you're alone with yourself.
And I have never met anyone
who disliked himself as much as Erik did.
Okay!
"What a safe pair of hands
to place your life in..."
Erik,
we're not gonna last three weeks.
We need to do something.
Well...
We'll find a way.
We have to.
We have no other choice.
There must be a way of getting help from outside.
Radio's dead.
Wait!
There is a way!
The Argentinean base.
- Rivadavia? - Yeah!
That's too far.
No! We could send someone in one of the Sno-Cats.
From there, we could radio for help.
That's nuts!
The Argies are what?
Two, three hundred kilometers away?
It's impossible!
No.
No, it's not! It's not that crazy.
It... It could work.
Okay, let's hear it.
We travel north, then northwest, avoiding the glacier.
There's a scenic route through the plateau, but it's flat,
hard terrain and it'll be safe.
The Sno-Cat won't make it, Heather.
Fuel range is 300 km,
and that's on optimal conditions.
And weather here is far from "optimal."
Just keeping the cabin warm will burn a lot of fuel.
But these things have a radio.
Limited range.
I'd say... Forty km at best? Thirty to be sure.
Then we don't have to reach the Argies.
We just gotta make it here.
From there, we can send them a signal.
If they have half the equipment we have,
they won't have any problem picking it up.
Two hundred seventy-ish km... It's gonna be tight.
We send just one person in full winter gear,
and we will pack the Sno-Cat with fuel.
In the cabin, in the trunk...
It's the only plan we got.
It's a Hail Mary pass,
but if we don't throw this ball more people are gonna die.
Come on, Erik.
Let's... do it, okay?
All right, I'll go.
It will be just like the Sonora Rally.
Much colder.
Hey, wait a minute.
Annika comes up with the idea, and she waltzes in?
What're you trying to say?
The killer wants to make sure we don't get help here.
And the way to do that is to be the one driving the Sno-Cat.
That's what I'm trying to say.
Oh, ok! That's rich.
Fuck off... I'll go.
First you don't like the idea,
and now that you do like the idea,
- you wanna be the person to... - Oh, for Christ's sake, guys!
We draw straws.
Shortest one wins.
Come on, line up.
I didn't get it.
Heather was our best chance. Erik knew that.
I wish it to be known, that I do this under protest.
Annika?
Who won?
"Ebba?"
Ebba won?
Ebba goes.
Hey, hey! Hey, hey!
Look at me.
"I saw it..."
He told me once how, after the army,
he took to practising hand tricks.
How having something manual to focus on helped.
- "He cheated." - Hey, hey.
- "He made Ebba win." - You will do great.
- You will. - Okay.
Alright! Let's get this show on the road!
Chop-chop!
Stop and sleep in the cab if you need to.
Whatever you do, don't fall asleep at the wheel.
And if you do rest,
don't turn off the engine, keep it on idle.
On idle. Okay.
And here there is...
bandages, hand cream and salt tablets.
Just stay warm and hydrated.
You know how to use all of it.
You'll be fine, Ebba, you are gonna do great.
I'm not so sure...
Come on, you're the lucky one. You're getting out of here.
Go get them!
Should I start it?
Yeah, and keep it running, so it warms up a bit.
Don't worry about that, engine's cold.
Just keep trying.
Maybe I'm doing something wrong?
You know it's ridiculous. Don't you?
She can't do this.
- Fuck... Erik, come on. - Stop it. Ebba goes.
Try again! Come on!
Come on.
She was burning! She was burning!
Okay, come on! Easy.
- Come on. - Johan, we have to let her...
Okay. We'll take a break.
- Yeah. - Yeah.
Come, Maggie. Maggie. Relax, relax.
I'm here, I'm here. I'm here.
We'll take a break now, okay?
You don't have to think about it.
How is she?
Better. But she needs to rest.
I met Ebba's kids back in Denmark.
Viktor...
and Lily.
She was so sweet,
always touching my beard.
We had lunch with her and her husband...
What am I going to tell them?
You had nothing to do with this. It's not your fault.
You don't understand.
I was happy...
to find out that it was she who died.
Since we found her, I've been wishing:
"Please, let it be Ebba."
And now it is her...
It wasn't you who killed her.
But everything that has happened here,
all the horrible things... I'm almost drowning in it!
You should stop this.
- I can't! - Yes, you can.
- Just wait for the police. - I can't.
We haven't found Annika.
She might still be out there, alive.
You don't know that for sure.
The storm is getting closer.
Did you find anything on the phone?
No.
Nothing helpful.
"Johan to Gustav,
I want you to organize a search party.
Check every piece of ice around the base.
Before the storm hits us."
Do you think he did it on purpose?
Getting her in the Sno-Cat?
- Erik? - Yeah.
I don't know.
I guess people just want to destroy what they can't have.
Ebba was... always sad.
I don't think she ever wanted to be here.
The ice is not for everyone.
She never came back...
after that first season with us.
Any idea why?
There was something though...
Something that happened earlier in the winter.
"Shut up."
"You need to calm down, Ebba..."
"Let's discuss this..."
"Please, Ebba, you need to calm down..."
..."gorevadensiger"...
Why don't we let the lovers have their quarrel?
It's always a good policy to stay out of other people's business,
don't you think?
"Gerevadensiger."
That's all I could hear.
"Gore vad hen siger."
"Gor hvad han siger."
You understand it?
"Do what he says."
Or she says.
Any idea who they were talking about?
- I don't know. - You're telling me that...
that Erik knew something about what was going on?
He would never hurt Ebba...
His face, when she died...
"I think he really wanted to save her.
Get her away from Polaris VI."
Almost, guys! Come on, come on, come on!
Stop, stop!
Everybody stop, right now!
So the gun was Erik's.
Why would he bring a gun to the station?
There are only two things you can shoot in the Antarctic.
The first is penguins, and they migrate for the winter.
That leaves the second,
people.
I think he brought a gun because...
he thought he'd need it.
I think he knew something would happen.
Something terrible.
Everybody stop, right now!
Everybody!
One of you did this.
One of you killed Ebba!
And I want to know who it is right now.
Now!
He was crazy.
Erik, please...
Don't move!
He was scared.
Any of you move, you're dead!
Please, put down the gun, please!
This was your idea from the beginning!
You knew this would happen!
I would never do that.
Erik, you need to calm down.
This isn't you...
I should put a bullet in each one of you.
That's what we deserve!
All of us!
Ebba!
It's my fault, I...
I did it.
No, it's not your fault...
- Stop, I'm warning you! - Okay.
Please, just listen to me.
Please.
Erik, Erik, look at me.
You're a good man, Erik.
I know you.
You take care of people
and nothing that's happened could have changed that.
I'm not a good man... I...
Yes, you are. Yes, you are.
Okay...
Yes you are...
Don't move, you!
Erik, Erik, Erik!
- Don't! - No, No. Erik.
Erik, remember my very first time here?
Remember?
When nobody thought I'd last a winter.
And I wanted to prove them all wrong. But they weren't wrong.
And after a month,
I was barely keeping my shit together
Then one day you came to the mess hall, remember?
You came to me and said that they were
all taking bets on me.
All taking bets on how long before I broke down.
And you...
you'd betted on me lasting the entire season.
And I asked you... Remember?
I asked you: "Why bet on me?" I was a lost cause.
And then you said...
Because I should be more afraid of making you lose two grand,
than I should be of the winter.
And in the end, you won.
And that's the kind of man that you are.
Annika was getting to him...
Annika, I should've let you crumble...
- No. - You would be better off,
far from this shit place...
Erik was a bomb that was about to go off.
Well, I should have let you crumble!
You would be better off far from this shit place!
No! Erik, please,
you don't have to do this.
We can make this right, yeah?
I know this is not you.
I know you.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!
Maggie?
Maggie? Wow, wow, wow, wow!
Maggie! Hey!
Hey! Are you okay?
You are going too far, Johan.
Again and again.
She's sedated now.
You examined her. Could she be faking it?
Johan, I've seen a lot of T3 cases.
No, I find it hard to believe.
Johan, this is not helping anybody.
- Johan. - Yes?
We just received this from Barts School of Medicine.
Okay.
So, she is who she says she is?
Still, she could be working for somebody else.
No...
This is too brutal. It's almost personal.
Yes.
Where the hell is Annika?
The storm is here... What do you want us to do?
Get everyone inside.
We'll carry on when it's calmed down.
"This is Gustav.
- Call it off and get back." - Yeah, got it!
Guys!
We're going back! They're calling it off!
Over here! Over here!
I think I've found something!
Quick, call Johan!
Get away! Away!
Find me.
Johan.
She was there, the whole time.
Right there...
Oh, my god...
Frozen...
I shouldn't have let her come back.
Johan.
Let's leave. We'll let Micke take care of this.
I'm staying.
Okay.
Johan...
does Annika have an intramedullary nail?
What?
A nail from a... bone fracture surgery?
- No... - Look here. Right leg
No, I would have known.
I would have known.
It's not her.
But everyone is accounted for...
Nobody else is missing from Polaris VI.
Then...
Who are you?
