The Minister

The newly elected chairman of the Independence party, Benedikt, has formed an alliance with the social democratic alliance for the upcoming elections; unexpectedly, he announces that he will resign if there is not a 90% voter turnout.

The other powers in play consider their options.

When Rikarður contacts Benedikt to ask him to help with a dispute in his parish, Benedikt's impulsive reaction is to separate church and state.

Benedikt travels north to sign a permit for the construction of a hotel resort in his hometown.

Benedict abuses his temporary power as president to set a provisional law providing the family of a Ukrainian doctor with citizenship.

The parliament discusses the option of adopting the Euro; however, Benedict is obsessed with reworking a medieval music transcript into a musical.
