Epigraph: "We few, we happy few, we band of brothers…" - Shakespeare, Henry V
Birgitte assembles the founding members of her New Democratic party: the young Moderate MP Nete, her former education minister Jon, and (after some reluctance) the New Right deputy leader Erik Hoffman (who opposes the recent anti-immigrant legislation). Nete warns Birgitte that Jon is not to be trusted politically. Bent maintains his loyalty to the Moderates over his friendship with Birgitte, and attempts to broker a settlement with Kruse that would make her deputy leader but she refuses. Alex's wooing of Katrine to return to TV1 turns into a one-night stand; Torben is greatly offended to learn of this. When her mother calls her an irresponsible parent, Katrine refuses further child-care help. After the press conference announcing the party's formation, Bent asks to join as well.
