Sheriff Anderssen speaks to Elena Ledesma about an incident. Hildur Odegard visits her husband, Eric, in the hospital, where he is recovering from an injury to his leg from a bear trap. She tells him an ice drill is en route from Oslo, and will arrive on Wednesday.
While Hildur practices her speech, Anderssen and Frank Sutter fly over the ice. They confront Yuri Lubimov and Max Cordero about not carrying hunting rifles. The men claim that they don't need them because they are heading inland and polar bears are coastal predators.
Anderssen shows them photographs of Billy Pettigrew's corpse. He takes the keys for their snowmobiles and Yuri's handgun, gives them his rifle, and tells them to walk back to town.
After he and Frank leave, one of the men mentions having put a cop in the hospital. Vincent Rattrey enters the sauna, but leaves when others come in and slips, hurting his head. In the pub, Yelburton tells Rattrey they have no crime in Fortitude, so no one knows whether or not Anderssen is a good sheriff. Anderssen meets with Henry, who is drunk and obsessed with Pettigrew's death. Henry tells Anderssen he knows he was already there and that he knows he hid the bullet Henry shot Pettigrew with.
Stoddard asks Eric about Jason, saying that the mammoth needs to be located and protected. Ronnie asks Jason what they should do next. Jason tells him he'll take care of it. Anderssen says that if he doesn't wake by the next morning, he'll have Liam airlifted. He introduces Jules to Elena. Professor Charles Stoddart tells Governor Hildur Odegard that he will not release his report, which would allow a hotel to be built into the nearby glacier.
He does not tell her what was found. Professor Stoddart returns home with his dog, who starts whimpering and barking.
Frank and Jules Sutter have a row after Jules reveals she has asked for her son to be taken to the mainland hospital, because she believes her son's illness to be something far more than mumps as first thought by Dr. Allerdyce who Jules has said she doesn't trust. When Jules leaves Frank to care for Liam alone, taking solace in a dark bar, Elena comes by the house and she and Frank spend some sexy time in a shed, during which Liam wakes up, exits his bedroom by his window and wanders around in the snow in only his pajama bottoms, returning before anyone is the wiser.
Frank is called to serve on the manhunt to locate Natalie, who along with Vincent, was supposed to have dinner with the murdered professor that night, only to go missing. The next day, upon questioning, it becomes clear that Vincent is not the murderer but neither the sheriff nor the Governor are interested in letting him go, as having a wrong suspect is better than having no suspect at all.
That… was a lot of words. The show is twisty and malleable, impossible to get a firm grasp on, while still remaining a prickly breath of narrative fresh air.
Easily one of the best new show of the TV season, Fortitude bites off more than it can chew and is all the better for it. The A. About The A. Club Store. Certainly his disappearance into the wilds with Natalie, one of the scientists at the research facility, indicates some sort of guilt.
In fact, the one person we can perhaps safely rule out is the one currently under arrest for the crime: Vincent, the visiting research scientist and badger expert, who appears to have been in the wrong place at the wrong time, but is being kept in custody to prevent people from panicking. Frank, an army vet turned search and rescue officer, is carrying on with mysterious hotel worker Elena, neglecting his wife Jules and son Liam in the process.
Anderssen, too, seems to have his eye on Elena; although the fact that she was waiting behind her hotel room door with a rifle when he came to visit, suggests his affections are not reciprocated.
I would wager that is just the tip of a very large iceberg. Did anyone spot any in the first episode? Is Fortitude a straight crime drama, or something more? Certainly in this opening episode, there are a couple of moments that hinted at the unreal. Top Gap. What is the broadcast satellite or terrestrial TV release date of Episode 1.
