- They didn't.

- No?

That's why he's dead, and I'm alive.

Solveig, do I look like a Norwegian now?

I quit at the end of the week.

- My dear, what is the matter?

- Why did you lie to that woman?

- What do you mean?

- About her son.

You must understand, Solveig.

It's not easy to be in my position.

These hopeless terrorist

attacks serve no purpose.

Civilian lives are at risk

if we don't stop them now.

Sometimes difficult decisions

must be made for the common good.

What would you have done?

I want to live in peace.

Do you?

I am here because I love this country.

I want to build a future here.

The resistance will end once people realise

we only want what's best for them.

You plan on shooting me?

Kolbein?

Still as reckless?

- When did you get out?

- Just now.

3 whole years!

How did you get out?

The Germans must have figured out

that I had nothing to do with you.

- Want some real coffee?

- Yes, please.

Can we take it outside?

I've had enough of small, dark rooms.

- What are you going to do now?

- Get back at them.

- You can't wait to get locked up again?

- They'll never catch me.

Why not enjoy your freedom?

Can't round a corner without

encountering a checkpoint.

Mr Bugge, Mr Brun, have a nice day.

Mr Blue...

- Did he say what he wanted?

- Just to meet us here.

Jens Christian sure looks serious.

- What was that about?

- Haven't you heard?

Quisling's latest notion

of a National Work Service?

He won't get anywhere with that. Only

retards and unemployed will volunteer.

- He's making it compulsory.

- He can't do that!

He wants to send Norwegians

to the Eastern Front.

- Entire classes. Boys between 18 and 20.

- How many are we talking?

70,000-80,000 men. The summonses go

out tomorrow. Show up, or be arrested.

- What can we do?

- Damn!

Who is it? The Gestapo?

Gunnar, who is it?

- My mother.

- Your mother?

She thinks I'm in Sweden.

She'll have a breakdown if she sees me.

They have archives around town

with all the names.

- Where?

- We'll hit 2 of them:

The archives are at police major Kielland's

and the Employment Office downtown.

- After you. Have a nice day!

- Thank you.

Everyone out!

Get out! Hurry!

- What took you so long?

- It wasn't our fault!

- Who is it?

- Hi, it's Karl Johan!

I have an important message

for Major Kielland.

Quiet... Are you sure you are alone?

- Where are the archives?

- Found them!

There's a lot here.

Sit here. Don't worry.

We won't hurt you.

Should we blow them up?

- No, let's burn them in the fireplace.

- What? He could be back any minute.

- Dick will ring the doorbell.

- Why not just blow them up?

Listen to me. People are sleeping
