How are you feeling?
I'm fucking scared.
Good.
- I don't think she wants to leave.
- I'm sure she does.
This way.
- Here are the terms of your parole.
- Don't lose it.
Alright.
I hope we don't have to see
each other again.
- Take good care of her.
- Yeah.
Hi. I'd like to come see you
with a new case.
She needs
a temporary apartment and -
then a longer-term rental.
She'll go to the unemployment
office and look for a job -
or more likely a school
she can apply to.
She's just been
released from prison -
and we're sorting her things out.
She has
an 8-month-old baby girl -
and we'll need to see -
what kind of
daycare options there are.
The mother
might also need support...
Yeah, we're going in.
We're going in.
Darling.
Are you tired?
Fewer people are worried
about the climate change.
According to a recent survey, -
people are more concerned
about everyday matters.
People are worried
about the economic crisis.
The percentage of severely indebted
households has increased.
Almost 20 percent of households
are considered to be at risk.
- Dad.
- Yes?
Are you going to die at work?
Of course not.
Of course not. Have you been
talking about this with Mom?
- Let's not tell Mom about this...
- About what?
Hi.
Emma, are you going
to give Dad a hug? Come here.
I love you. Bye bye.
- Bye.
- Bye.
- I'll start... What?
- How did it go'!
- It went we II.
- Good.
- Go ahead, say it.
- Did you want to say something?
- No. Did you?
- No.
I'm going to start work again.
I'll take it easy
for the next six months, -
since I'm still in recovery.
Anna.
I'll pair you
with Elias Kaski at first.
He works a side job
as a psychotherapist.
- So you think I need therapy?
- No.
It's because the other guys
are pissed at him -
because he fusses
over the drug addicts.
People can easily
cross the line in this job.
You could keep an eye
on his methods and what he does.
Why?
. - why? '
To see if he's using his therapist
skills to take advantage.
Don't you have
other men for this?
- With you he might...
- Someone from another department.
Quiet.
It's because with you he might slip.
And he might even cure you.
Analyze you. Or something.
You'll work with him.
The others here won't...
There aren't that many options.
We need three-shift workers
and cleaners.
- 50 you're not interested in that?
- No.
The three-shift work
is the only option.
If you don't accept the job, -
you 'll lose your benefits
for three months. - I know.
You 'll lose your
unemployment benefits. - I know.
Then your only option
would be welfare...
Let's party
Big Brother gave us booze.
There's too much fizz in this drink.
Pike, hi.
I thought you were in prison.
Pike!
- Pike, wait.
- Pike!
You're a goddamn whore!
Come here and I'll teach you!
You behave!
Please, don't! Stop!
39.60.
Thanks.
Siiri! She's got some paper
from the welfare office.
Do we accept these?
- Yeah, this is okay. Use code 8.
- Okay.
- Then do it normally.
- Okay.
I'm sorry; I'm new here.
I don't know everything.
Thanks.
Hi.
What's the situation here?
What did you take?
You hear me? What did you take?
- The guy wearing the cap?
- Yes.
Elias Kaski is a bit unique,
but you'll be fine.
Hi, Elias. Here's your new partner.
- Don't look too excited now.
- Olli Repo.
Hi. Good to see you.
- What's up?
- Recovering slowly.
They moved you to a different
department. - It's temporary.
- I've been meaning to call you...
- Everything's good.
- You sure?
- Positive.
Are you done?
Welcome to Narcotics.
Well. Well.
I hear you had a dose call.
Or...
We.
Fuck you! I'm tired of this shit!
What the fuck are you staring at?
Fuck you!
Riitta!
Hi.
Come here!
You want pizza?
This is the house. Yeah, this is it.
- Where the fuck are we going?
- What's the number?
Pike! How's it going?
- Pike.
- Good to see you.
This isn't the fuckin' boonies
after all.
Nice apartment.
- Where did you get money for this?
- From the state.
- How much is the rent?
- How did you get this?
What do you pay for this?
- Pike, look.
- She's lovely.
We brought you
a housewarming gift.
It's a glue gun.
- This was the most expensive one.
- I want a baby too.
I mean, I didn't pay for it.
It was a great find.
Spaghetti is healthy.
It was delicious.
- Pike, give me a beer.
- I don't have any.
You panicked.
Fuck, it was Jah Rastafari.
It was a wet fart.
What the fuck?
- You should chill a little.
- Yeah, chill.
Limppu. Put that away.
Roots, reggae, culture...
Awareness is the key.
- That's it.
- Take it easy.
- Let's take a hit. Then I'm out.
- No.
- Fuck...
- That's it.
Fuck, you don't have to...
why?
The man of the house will be happy
you're back. - Get the fuck out.
- You're back with your friends.
- Get out.
- Take it easy now.
- Get out.
Fuck! Calm down!
Her name is Alexandra.
So they let you keep her.
I almost missed you.
Why won't you
fuckin' leave me alone?
Customs. This way, please.
You're traveling light.
- I don't own anything.
- Have you been smoking something?
I don't do drugs.
- Are you carrying drugs inside you?
- No.
If we take a piss test,
will it come back positive?
How the fuck should I know?
Take all the tests you want.
You'll moan. I'll moan.
My dick is rock-hard. You'll moan
and your pussy will be all wet.
I'll lick your pussy.
You'll take my cock in your mouth
and suck it hard.
I'll fuck you in the ass...
Wait.
Hi.
- How's it going?
- Good.
Here's 150.
Here. Thanks.
Be careful with it.
- Everything's good?
- Yeah. Thanks.
There's more where that came from.
- Hypothermia? - It took three hours
to resuscitate him.
Possible brain damage.
We had to amputate his fingers.
Possible necrosis in his legs.
- Any I.D?
- No.
Did you take fingerprints?
His fingers are gone.
Gone?
Why did they amputate them
that quickly?
They should've left one intact.
- One what?
- A finger.
A loose finger?
Why would they keep them,
for fuck's sake.
Room 102. Mika Savela.
We haven't cleaned it yet.
Good. Thanks.
- Why don't you check the room.
- By myself?
If you get scared,
I'll send someone.
I'll go check the security cameras.
Police!
- Is Emma asleep?
- Yes.
Okay.
- I'm really sorry. Sorry.
- Okay.
- Can you call your mom if...?
- They're in Spain.
Right. Okay.
I'm sorry. Anna, I...
I'm really sorry.
- Are you sitting outside?
- No.
I can see you.
What are you doing?
Why are you here?
- I'm Olli.
- Minna.
- Hi, Minna. You want a beer?
- Yeah.
You really want one or
are you just being polite?
- Here you are.
- Thanks.
- Are you here with friends?
- No, by myself.
By yourself? That's a shame.
Why?
- Sorry, I'm bad at this.
- I can tell.
Whoah.
It's foaming over. Suck it.
I mean...
I'm really bad at this. I'm sorry.
You're doing fine.
Is everything alright?
Who is it? - Riitta, your neighbor.
Can you help me?
Open the door!
- What do you want?
- Can I come in?
- Can you help me?
- No.
Riitta! Come back home! Right now!
- You fucking whore!
- Relax.
You'll listen when I talk to you!
Got it?
You fucking whore!
Say that you're a whore!
I'll teach you how to behave!
Yeah. That's what it's like.
It doesn't have to be.
Can't you leave him?
It's not that hard.
Make a decision. Just leave.
Does he often go into the cell
with drug addicts?
- Does he?
- Why don't you ask him.
What did you talk about?
- We'll go to this address tomorrow.
- Tomorrow?
That's when someone will be home.
Wait.
How did you find me?
I'll always find you.
Is she mine?
Is she healthy?
Buy something nice for yourself.
And for our little princess.
- What's her name?
- Alexandra.
Not a bad name.
- Are you clean?
- Yeah.
- You're not using?
- No.
- You look fuckin' amazing.
- Fuck off.
- I love you.
- I hate you.
Okay.
Are you leaving?
Just a little. Just a little.
I'll put her to bed.
Give her to me.
Let me hold her for a moment.
Let's give it a try.
Daddy's little princess.
Did you sleep at all?
Police! Freeze!
Fuck! Fucking shit!
Whose card did you swipe
to get all this stuff!
Kaski, dammit.
Are you going to bake something?
The name Mika Savela
mean anything to you? - No.
This photo was taken
before you sold Savela your stuff -
without proper user instructions.
I can't see anything.
Savela took it in one go
and had a bad trip.
He ran out into the cold
and almost froze to death.
His girlfriend wasn't as lucky.
She's dead.
- First of all...
- Who's selling to you?
You had those small bags
at your place. What was in them?
You had small bags, right?
You think Savela will remember you -
when he wakes up in the hospital?
- I have nothing to do...
No need to raise your voice.
- I didn't raise my voice.
- Just sit back.
Where do you get it?
- Do you use alcohol?
- No.
- Not at all'!
- No.
- Painkillers?
- No.
Nothing.
You know what'll happen if
the tests come back positive, right?
We'll have to consider putting
your daughter into foster care.
What about birth control?
You have a man,
a partner, in your life?
No.
- No man?
- No.
What the fuck are you doing here?
Are you going to search my bag
to see if I stole meds?
No.
How are you adapting?
- How's your apartment?
- It's perfect.
I got nice neighbors.
What do you want? - Call me.
- I don't have a phone.
- Sure you do.
I don't even have a bank account.
- I don't need help.
- Here's my number.
I want to take care of you.
I don't want
anyone to take care of me.
- I can protect you.
- Protect me?
You know who I'm talking about.
Pike, I mean it.
- You're not my dad.
- Thank God.
I started smoking pot
when I was thirteen.
I've sold myself
for a couple of grams of speed.
I'm not going back to that.
I gotta go. Yes. See ya.
- What's that?
- A car.
- Going somewhere?
- I gotta take care of some things.
Are you coming back?
I'll protect you.
I'm not going back to that.
We'll leave it all behind.
I left all that behind.
We'll leave it all behind.
I'll protect you.
We'll leave this shit behind.
I'll never make
another mistake again. You hear me?
I'll never make
another mistake again.
Were you waiting for me?
Yes.
Did you have other men?
No.
Fuck off.
- Is she asleep?
- Yes.
Did you just drop by?
What made you come back home?
Did you bring a souvenir?
I have vitamin D in my ass.
You should go to Spain and get
some sun. You're so fuckin' pale.
Halonen is a fat bitch. I wonder
if he found a buyer for his toaster.
He expanded his product line
into stimulants.
What do you want?
You have time to mess around -
because someone else
did time for you.
Or did you come back
because you forgot something?
You want to do her?
Do you still get hard-ens?
You went to see Pike in prison.
Like... Fuck.
Fuck you, Lalli.
Oh, I almost forgot.
From Halonen.
I'll go to my place and get my bag.
Everything's okay now.
It was the same old thing.
He served coffee and cookies.
You-hon.
- What's up, man?
- Not much.
You have a clearance sale
here or what?
It's pretty empty.
I guess the police took my stuff.
What do you guys want?
I have all kinds of stuff
in the basement.
- I've got flat screen TVs,
stereos and iPads. - iPads?
I heard you turned into
a real Doctor Snuggles -
and a fuckin' candy man.
I don't know
where the junk comes from.
I only know where to get it and
how to pay... - Cut the crap.
I get the coordinates in my phone.
It's a different place every time.
I bring the money there.
Someone comes and gets the money.
I don't know where it goes.
You get it?
Fuck.
Halonen. What did you say?
Easy-
You let Halonen go?
- Yeah.
- Why?
- Insufficient evidence.
Insufficient?
The shit he's selling killed people.
I just told you:
nsufficient evidence.
Savela and his girlfriend's drug
tests came back negative. - So what?
You can kill a person
with detergent but it's not a drug.
- What do you get out of this'!
- You haven't answered me.
Did it bring back memories when
you got stabbed in the line of duty?
You can analyze the junkies
all you like, -
but I don't want to hear
a word about Freud.
Calm down.
I think we're done for today.
Who's that woman?
- What woman?
- 'What woman? '
You should be more careful, Kaski.
What are you up to? - What woman?
Pike. The dope whore.
She's a dope whore.
You have to be more careful.
What are doing?
You're seeing clients,
old buddies and a dope whore.
- What?
- You've been hit before.
- Fuck you!
- You've been hit before.
Someone hit you
when you were a child.
That's why it brought back
memories. - Fuck you!
You're afraid the same thing's
going to happen again.
Let's put it on the book.
Let's put it...
Hi.
- You left the door open.
- Yeah, we're getting a new TV.
It'll take hours
to set this TV up...
- Hi.
- Take the old TV away.
Don't step on the baby blanket.
- I didn't step on it.
- Don't fuck with her.
- You heard what I said?
- Yeah.
You fuckin' monkey.
C'mon...
What is this fucking cord for?
How did you get this?
From a knife.
You want me to call you a taxi?
I'm sorry.
Come on in.
Coffee? Beer? Tea?
- I'll have a beer, please.
- Okay.
Thanks.
Nice view.
So this is your watch tower.
When you spot a thief down there,
you can run after him.
It's so dark you'll only see
your reflection in the window.
Your boss thinks you get something
out of analyzing suspects.
He probably thinks you get the
coordinates of drug stashes. - What?
That's what he said. - Look around.
This is how "comfortably" I live.
He asked me to check
how comfortably you live. - I know.
You're not the first.
You could've hidden the money
in the Cayman Islands.
Right. - What kind of things
do you talk about with the junkies?
- What do you talk about?
- Financing tips.
Why do you see Pike'!
Actually...
...I'd like her
to get her life back.
She deserves it. That's all.
Is Lalli the father of her baby?
And you want to make sure
he gets caught again?
You-hon.
- Hi.
- What happened?
Nothing.
Are you drunk?
Let's try again.
- No...
- Anna, I miss you.
- No.
- Anna. Don't close the door.
Don't close the door.
Wait.
Police! Freeze!
Fuck!
Fuck!
Look at me. Look at me
when I'm talking to you.
You can always come here.
Mommy's having fun.
I love you.
Get those people out of here.
- I've got to take care of business.
- What business?
This will make us fuckin' rich.
You understand?
We can leave all this shit behind.
- We'll get evicted.
- I'll protect you.
We'll get out of this fuckin' shit.
You understand?
I'll buy you anything you want.
All this is going to change.
We'll be alright.
We'll have everything.
You understand?
You can buy diamonds.
You can buy jewelry.
We can buy drugs.
We can buy
a fuckin' house by the sea.
You're mine. You understand?
You're mine.
I'll protect you.
Whoah. This is a fuckin' baby chair.
I fell flat on my ass.
Get out.
- Get them out of here.
- Why?
He fell flat on his ass
on the baby chair.
C'mon. Everything's okay.
Get them the fuck of here.
Get them the fuck of here.
Calm down.
Alright. Good.
You want some?
You need help?
A business card...
with a phone number.
There's a phone number.
You have more of that stuff?
Shut up.
That's not fair.
Are you going to
the railway station?
Lalli, can you...
Check this out.
Fuck no...
Pike.
Alexandra.
Fuck, Pike.
Hi. Come on in.
Thank you.
Everything's okay.
How long are you going
to go on living like this?
I really tried -
my best.
You haven't lost anything yet.
If I lose Alexandra...
That's right.
You know what he'll do
if he finds out you've been here?
Yes.
Because he thinks he owns you.
You ended up
living the wrong kind of life.
Your life sucks.
You've made him think he owns you.
And maybe he does.
Don't be such a wuss.
Don't be so submissive.
If you give in a little,
he'll take everything.
I know the type.
You give in a little
and he'll take everything.
If you think you're getting
something out of this, you're wrong.
He'll take everything.
He'll crush you.
He'll dominate you.
He's the father of my child.
Imagine what kind of a person
you could share your life with.
What can you share with Lalli?
How can you live
with someone like him?
You can't tell him anything.
I've been in a similar situation
for a longtime.
I drifted away from reality.
I don't know what
so-called ordinary people think.
I don't know how to talk to them.
I don't know fuck
about ordinary life.
That makes me damn lonely.
Don't pretend you're an angel.
- What's that?
- Take it.
- What?
- Take it.
I don't want to.
Why don't you start using for real?
The pills will help me
get out of here? - No.
Look, I take these too.
Great. I was waiting for that.
Here.
He said something about-
us getting rich
because of this number.
I want out of here.
It's never too late to start over.
Never.
Here. Type them into the navigator.
- Huh?
- Wait.
No fuckin' way.
Pike wouldn't do that...
No fuckin' way...
Did you ask her?
- Are you fucking with me?
- No.
- I saw a cop come out.
- Pike would never do that.
Pike is no snitch.
I don't think she would fuck a cop.
I mean,
I don't know if she's a snitch.
Fuck.
My mom left. Dad just yells now.
- Are you going to be alright?
- You have to go?
- Yeah.
- Why?
- I have no choice.
- Where are you going?
- What?
- Where are you going?
I think you need to leave.
- Take care of your mom.
- Yeah.
Should we ask for backup?
We should be fine.
Let's check the situation first.
We can't go there just the two of
us. - It could be just a false lead.
It's probably a false tip. - You
just want to shoot Lalli, right?
And I should keep
my mouth shut, right?
I don't fuckin' believe this...
This sucks.
Hey-
That's Limppu.
Where the fuck is Lalli?
Fuck...
Police! Freeze!
Freeze!
Fuck!
Freeze!
Freeze! Freeze!
Freeze!
Put your hands up! Don't...
Going far?
You have beer?
No.
You have something? Booze?
You're leaving?
Open your mouth, honey.
Like this.
Open it more. More.
Open it more.
That's it.
You're not lying to me, are you?
You have something
you want to tell me?
Anything?
You have something
you want to tell Daddy'! Huh?
I have nothing to tell.
Don't.
What did you want to tell me?
- Pick her up.
- She's your child.
Pick her up.
Pick her up or I'll shoot her.
Why did you betray me? Huh?
I haven't betrayed you.
- She'll break in half if I shoot her.
- I love you.
- She'll break in half.
- I love you.
You betrayed me.
Don't you fucking get it?
I love you.
What are you saying?
You betrayed me!
You fucking betrayed me!
You fucking whore!
- Who is it?
- I don't know.
What the fuck are you doing
with that cop? - You know Elias.
Get out!
Where is she? Where's my wife?
Riitta...
Police!
Freeze! On the ground!
Turn to me!
On the ground! On the ground!
Anyone else here? Is there?
It's Repo.
We're in the apartment.
The suspect shows no vital signs.
He's not breathing.
We need an ambulance
for the other guy.
There are no other people.
Come quick.
Alright.
Did you set this up?
Did you set this up? Huh?
Huh?
She's that important to you?
Hi.
Hey-
It was self-defense.
- When are you coming back?
- I don't think I'm coming back.
What do you mean?
I'm a single man,
so I've managed to save some money.
- What money?
- Drug money.
Uh-huh. Right.
