Nora enlists the help of the Prime Minister’s right-hand man, Andreas (Kim Falk) and soldier Chris Holm (Mads Sigurd Petersen) to find out exactly what’s going on and what the troll is up to. It soon became clear that it, about forty meters high, was aimed at the capital, Oslo. This would cause disaster. The troll must be stopped, but how?
