Her husband commits insider trading. Her solution? Throw him under the bus. Democracy, baby!
Prime Minister Alma Solvik gets caught up in a scandal before elections. During Alma's term in power, her husband Sondre has done transactions on the stock exchange apparently using the government's inside information. Alma puts together a crisis communication HQ that formulates the tactics for communicating with the public. The Prime Minister is also a prime minister at home and therefore they launch the campaign "Sondre is the culprit" – the elections must be won, after all.
