S1 E1
S1E1, "1:23:45": An explosion at the power plant sets off confusion and denial as officials struggle to understand what has happened. Tense, dark, and dramatic. Good for learners because the dialogue is clear and serious, with everyday chunks around describing problems, asking questions, and giving orders, in a formal, urgent tone. This episode deals with a real tragedy, so the tone is quite heavy throughout.
