[wind blowing leaves]
[crows cawing]
[Sofia] That photo was taken
in 2016 in Kos.
You were there with Ossi.
Yeah, it was one of those package tours.
Did your sister go?
She's not in the photos.
No, just me and Ossi.
Tuuli was supposed to go,
but there was some hassle
with the Rehaxin project.
She had to cancel. I went instead of her.
Why?
What do you mean?
[Nurmi] Why did someone have to go along?
The purpose of the trip was to get Ossi
to stop messing around with drugs,
and for me to talk to him
when Tuuli couldn't go.
What is this about?
Do you know who's in that photo?
Yeah. This is Nea.
Was it Paarma?
- Nea Paarma?
- [Sanna] Yeah.
A sweet girl.
Her mother had died.
She and her father stayed
at the same hotel.
Do you know why Ossi
had so many pictures of her?
This was on an excursion.
She wanted pictures of herself.
Ossi had a proper camera.
I don't know if he ever sent these to her.
[Sofia] Hmm.
Can you tell me anything
about Nea's necklace?
[Sanna] These were sold there
at nearly every stand.
Maybe she bought it there.
Look at it closely.
[birds chirping]
[Sofia] It's the same pattern
the murderer left on Tuuli's body.
It was also
where Krister's body was found.
[Sofia] Do you know
what the connection is?
No.
Okay. Thank you.
[Sofia] Could you check all info
on Nea Paarma?
[Sanna sighing]
[Sofia] Thanks, bye.
Nea Paarma killed herself
in the fall of 2019,
only a few minutes
before she would've turned 18.
- [Nurmi] How did she kill herself?
- Heroin. Took an overdose, heart failed.
[Nurmi] So she did drugs?
Apparently. The girl was found
in Rajamäki's flak tower. Do you know it?
[Nurmi] Yeah. It's been closed for years.
Did she leave a message?
Apparently not.
The case was considered solved.
Why did she kill herself?
She was just about to turn 18.
[tense music playing]
[opening theme music playing]
[music fades]
[Sofia] We found a link
between Tuuli Sirén and Nea Paarma.
Nea Paarma sought treatment
for depression from Sirén.
[Silja] Do we know the reason
for her depression?
The reason might be
that Nea Paarma's mother, Tanja Paarma,
had died a little earlier in the hospital
during a routine operation.
Have they interviewed the girl's father?
No, he's in Australia.
He moved there
a little before Nea was born.
Hasn't visited Finland
or been in contact with the family.
He has alibis, so he probably has
nothing to do with this case.
[indistinct chatter]
Well then, who was in Kos with Nea?
The mother's brother.
Uh, Jouni Paarma.
Nea lived with him after her mother died,
even though the uncle didn't become
her legal guardian.
However, Jouni Paarma also died
in a traffic accident
a few months after Nea's suicide.
The car caught fire.
The guy burned inside.
The Paarmas haven't been very lucky.
This is the symbol Korento used.
This necklace was on Nea's neck
in the pictures at Kos.
This was the Minoan culture's sign
for medicine.
It evolved
into the symbol of the Hippocratic oath,
and from that,
into the symbol of modern medicine
[papers rustling]
the Rod of Asclepius.
[phone ringing]
Yeah, that's great. But what does it mean?
Is there something else?
Now we know what the hair
at Korento's place was.
It's from a sheep.
Did they keep a sheep there?
How should I know?
At least the hair is from a sheep.
[machine whirring]
Asclepius woke the dead
with the help of snakes.
Why do you always do that?
- What?
- [Nurmi] Pour it into a bigger cup.
Does it matter where you drink it from?
[JP] Karppi.
Nea Paarma's things are still here.
Her uncle came to identify the body,
but he died before he got the stuff.
I went through it and found this.
Seamen's Mission's brochure.
Lukas Roiha's place?
Yeah. Then I contacted
someone named Mira Varpu.
Nea's schoolmate.
They hung out in the same places.
She told me that, altogether,
there were five underage girls
in Roiha's Young Lust ring.
- And Nea was one of them?
- [JP] Yeah.
Mira had talked on the phone
with Nea the day that Nea died.
She'd been normal and cheerful.
Said she'd picked up
an older guy from Luola
and gone to his place for the night.
But isn't Luola's age limit like 24?
Or at least 21?
That's never prevented anything.
- Speaking from experience?
- Yes, indeed.
Did Mira know the name of this guy?
No. I got the impression that Nea
didn't really get along with his uncle
and sometimes spent nights away.
- Did you ask about Nea's necklace?
- [JP] Yeah.
She didn't know anything
except that it was always around her neck.
Was the necklace with Nea's things?
[JP] No.
Why not?
I don't know.
Did you get a more recent picture of Nea?
No, but this Mira promised to send one,
and I gave her your number as well.
I'll need this.
[phone ringing]
[Sofia sighing]
If Nea always had the chain
around her neck, where is it now?
[tense music playing]
[anchor] Investigations revealed a webcam
being tested on the roof of the city hall
recorded footage showing
a woman pushing Kuusinen,
who didn't know how to swim,
into the Cholera Basin.
This morning the police arrested
Helsinki's mayor, Sara Tulisuo,
for the manslaughter of Henri Kuusinen.
The police did not say
anything else regarding
What does this mean?
The mayor will be replaced.
Tulisuo will no longer defend our clinic.
It can't be hanging on one person.
[Stella] Krister is dead.
Rehaxin's reputation is ruined.
Forget the clinic.
[Stella breathing deeply, sighing]
I'll put the project on hold.
[birds warbling]
I can get this over the finish line.
Rehaxin and the clinic
were Tuuli's visions.
I should've put a stop to it all earlier.
It wasn't only Tuuli's vision.
It was my idea.
The initial idea of the medicine was mine.
The need for it.
I said it to Tuuli.
An idea is only an idea.
- Yeah
- [Stella] Hey.
I don't care who's been throwing
ideas at which stage.
Tuuli walked into my room here
and sold the idea to me.
She believed in this,
took this forward, and did research.
I suggested Tuuli should come to you,
and I took part in the whole
Assistants are always needed.
You are a decent chemist,
but your sister was a leader.
She was charismatic
and got people to believe in the project.
Yeah.
Tuuli was very good
at manipulating people. That's true.
Interesting.
She never spoke ill of you.
If the development
of Rehaxin stops, I quit.
That's completely up to you.

POLICE
[keyboard clacking]
[dramatic music playing]
[man in English]
Hamburg police knew all the time
who's the driver
who ran over your husband in 2016.
The name is Cecilia Beatriz.
She's the wife
of the Polish ambassador to Germany.
[Sofia sighing]
VMT TRANSPORT HELSINKI
[keyboard clacking]
[Sofia] "Helsinki."
[mouse sliding, clicking]
[Sofia] "G-I-I five, six, five."
TYPE IN THE LICENSE NUMBER
GII-565
[Sofia] Hi.
- [Sampola] Hiya.
- [Sofia] I have a couple of questions.
[Sampola] Okay.
[car lock clicking]
[Sampola] Where was this shot again?
South of Hamburg.
[Sampola] Oh, okay.
It looks like it's Arto Kaasisen's truck.
So Arto Kaasisen is the driver?
He was, yes.
[Sofia] Do you have
his contact information?
Yes, but it's no longer valid.
You see, Artsi goddamn died.
His ticker failed.
He hadn't even turned 50.
And do you know where the truck is?
Uh, I know where it was a year ago.
Where?
[Sampola] It went
with the other equipment.
It was sold to Lappeenranta.
- [Sofia] To which company?
- No, that business failed.
So you don't know where it is.
No idea.
There was Russian ownership.
It went bankrupt,
and the bankruptcy estate
sold all equipment
to probably both sides of the border.
What do you need the truck for?
The truck had a dash-cam.
I need to have a look at the footage.
Well, I have that.
- The camera?
- Yeah.
I don't have time for this.
Could you give me the camera?
- [Sampola groaning]
- [Sofia] Now.
[Sampola] Got it.
[objects clattering]
[rummaging]
[Sampola] Where did I put it now?
It's here.
Well
What's your offer on it?
- Do you mean dough?
- Yeah.
- Hey
- [Sofia] Thanks.
No, you You can't just take it.
[door opening]
- That's

[crows cawing]
[Sofia sighing]
[dramatic music playing]
[computer chiming]
[Sofia whispering] Fuck.
[Sofia sniffling]
[indistinct chatter]
[elevator beeping]
[elevator door opening]
- Hey.
- [Hieta] Hey.
- Hey, Hieta.
- [Hieta] Hmm?
Can you help?
I can't get out any material.
What's on it?
Dash-cam footage.
Related to what?
It's not work-related. It's personal.
Could you still help, please?
[Hieta] I'll see when there's time.
Look especially at August 31st, 2016,
if that's there.
August 31st, 2016, yes.
[Sofia] Yeah, and right after midnight.
[Hieta] Yeah.
[Sofia] I'll owe you one again.
[printer whirring]
[phone ringing]
Three people from one family die
within a few years.
One of medicine,
one of drugs, and one is burnt alive.
Quite unusual deaths.
Do you think they weren't accidents?
[Nurmi] Not necessarily,
but there is something strange.
[Sofia] That friend of Nea's, Mira,
sent this photo a week before she died.
I think the symbol on the necklace
is the key to everything.
Hello?
Yes, it probably is.
The perp leaves
the same symbol on their victims.
It means it's someone close to Nea, right?
All those close to Nea are dead.
Except for the father,
who was mainly distant and had an alibi.
Someone wants revenge on Nea's behalf?
How does Tuuli Sirén fit in this?
She was a doctor who helped Nea.
One could assume that,
but what do we know?
Nea went to her for depression.
According to the medical center's report,
Sirén didn't offer her anything.
No mental health services, no therapy.
She just pushed medication.
Sometimes antidepressants
may predispose one to suicide.
[Nurmi] Hmm.
[door closing]
So Korento might think
Sirén was to blame for Nea's suicide.
Well
I'll get some coffee.
Did you listen at all to what I said?
Hey!
The man Nea spent her last night with.
Maybe someone in Luola will know him.
Nea was so young
that someone might remember her.
It's been over a year.
What?
He doesn't know anything.
What do you mean?
The man doesn't know anything.
Why not?
I'm him.
What the fuck are you saying?
Nea left from my place that morning.
I was at the club, and Nea came with me.
She was 17.
[Nurmi scoffing]
But she looked a lot older.
You fucked a child.
- She wasn't a child. Almost 18.
- A child.
How could I have known she was so young?
The age limit for Luola was 21.
Everything went to hell.
I didn't keep a record of who I fucked.
Calm down. I don't care who you fuck.
How long have you known about this?
I recognized her from that new photo.
Do you get you might have been
the last person
[Nurmi] Yeah.
I understand that frigging well.
- [kids chattering indistinctly]
- [door creaking open]
[cell phone vibrating]
Venni, hey.
Not much. Why?
Whose party?
Why do I need to come?
Okay. Will you pick me up?
Okay. See you.
[keyboard clacking]
[footsteps approaching]
- [JP] Hey.
- [Make] Hey.
Hey, Nea's friend, Mira,
found their old chat.
Turns out Nea was supposed
to meet some guy the evening she died.
He'd promised bar work in Ibiza.
They were supposed to meet
at a restaurant called Kansas.
- You know it?
- No.
Hmm. The old place
by the road after Porvoo.
The one with the line dancing.
[indistinct chatter]
I've tried it.
Okay.
Right. Well, you're welcome.
Make, will you go eat with me?
- [Make] Of course.
- [JP] I'll drive. You'll pay.
[house music playing]
[indistinct chatter]
[woman laughing raucously]
[indistinct chatter]
That guy at the bar is Lamppari,
the one from the job.
[Henna] Oh, right.
Kurt Busk. He owns this place.
- [Henna] Who's that chick?
- No idea. They change all the time.
Now they're going to Mursu.
- Hey.
- [Kurt] Hey.
- Hi, Kurt.
- Hey.
Henna.
Are you enjoying yourselves?
Yeah. This is a nice place.
Are you one of Venni's friends?
Yeah.
[both chuckling]
Well, have fun. Let's talk more later.
- Is he the one running the jobs?
- [shushing] Not here.
Let's get more to drink.
Hey, keep on dreaming.
This one is mine.
Have you been asked?
[Henna] No.
Hey, I need to go there.
[inaudible]
[girls giggling]
[people laughing]
[door closing]
[camera shutter clicking]
[camera shutter clicking]
[door opening]
- [Mursu] This room needs to be emptied.
- [Lamppari] Today?
[Mursu] All this stuff needs to be out
before the end of this party.
- [Lamppari] What's the frigging rush?
- [Mursu] None of your business.
- [Lamppari] I was going to get wasted.
- [Mursu] I don't care.
[light switch clicking]
[Lamppari] There's a hell
of a pile of stuff.
- Well, ask the Jokelas to help.
- [Lamppari] The Jokelas?
They are no fucking help.
[Henna's breath shuddering]
[door opening]
[indistinct chatter]
[door closing]
[wood creaking]
[cell phone ringing]
Hello?
What?
What? Now?
Well, okay then.
[Henna's breath shuddering]
[girls laughing]
- Where were you?
- Nowhere.
I was trying to find you.
- In the bathroom?
- [Venni] Mm.
Again?
Well, it's cute you come
to the bathroom after me.
[Venni chuckling]
[Lamppari] Well, well, well.
[Lamppari laughing]
[clearing throat] Grab our coats.
I'll show you this place.
- [Henna] What place?
- Where all the bands played in the '80s.
[Henna] Okay.
Yeah, on the old backstage, the walls
are still full of the names of the bands.
- Oh, wow.
- Hey, don't be like that.
[Venni chuckling]
[locks disengaging]
What was Nea like,
besides younger than she seemed?
Let it be already.
Tell me. It might be useful.
[Nurmi sighing]
I don't know.
She talked a lot.
Did she say something when she left?
She'd already left when I woke up.
Why didn't she wake you up?
No idea.
Until today, I thought she was alive.
At work, they surely talked
about a young woman found dead.
How could I have linked it to her?
Besides, she didn't seem
like she was doing drugs.
Did she mention anything about herself
or, by chance, Lukas Roiha?
- She said nothing.
- [Sofia] You said she talked a lot.
Not about herself.
What is this fucking interrogation?
Excuse me, it's a private event.
[Nurmi] Police.
Take that side.
Okay.
Recognize her?
She was here about a year ago.
Nea Paarma is the name.
I don't remember, no.
Okay. Thank you.
[Sofia] Nea Paarma. Came here a year ago.
I didn't work here then.
Police.
Do you recognize this woman?
Nea Paarma was here a year ago.
- [woman] Doesn't look familiar. Sorry.
- [Sofia] Doesn't ring a bell?
Could you please leave?
Could you please get out of my way?
[Mursu scoffing]
You have no permission to be here.
I don't need it from you.
Want to spend the night in jail?
You could just move aside.
Fine.
Turn around,
and put your hands behind your back.
Did you hear? Turn around.
Hands behind your back!
[Kurt] Wait a minute.
What's the problem here?
- Who are you?
- Kurt Busk.
- I own this place.
- [Sofia] Hmm.
My guests get scared when you scream.
We've got questions for the staff.
Your idiot friend
doesn't seem to understand.
I'm sorry. It's a private event.
I can talk to you if we go over there.
- Did you work here a year ago?
- Sorry?
Did you work here a year ago?
That's what I thought.
Which is why we'll interview your staff
and will leave after that. Okay?
And you'll tell this fucking ape of yours
to stay further away from me!
This place was closed a year ago.
Under renovation for months.
You can easily check it.
Go make sure that they leave.
Yeah.
It was reopened six months ago.
Get the fuck out of here now.
Okay, let's go.
[Mursu] That's right.
Take the whore the fuck away.
Did you just call me a whore?
Are you deaf?
- Karppi.
- Did you call me a whore? Say it again.
- [Nurmi] Karppi, stop.
- No, I want to hear him say it again.
Or?
[Mursu grunting]
- What the fuck?
- I could shoot your head to shit any
Fuck you, frigging whore.
[Mursu grunting]
Let's go.
[Mursu groaning]
[tense music playing]
[Henna] When my mom died,
I got her LP records.
One has Dingo's album on one side
and on the other, Pyhät Nuket.
Or whatever it was.
[Venni] Right.
[house music playing]
Are you all right?
Henna was there.
She went in with someone.
To the party?
Yeah.
Want to go back?
No.
Let's just leave.
Okay.
[car engine starting]
[Mursu breathing heavily]
[house music playing]
[girls laughing]
[Mursu grunting, groaning]
Is it broken?
[Sofia sighing]
Want to talk about Henna?
No.
Okay.
Why had Nea agreed to meet
at a place that was closed?
A strange meeting place
in the middle of nowhere.
She was offered work
in the restaurant business.
Maybe the guy
was the former owner of the place.
But still. A very strange place to meet.
Somehow Nea ended up in the flak tower.
We need to find out
what happened in between.
Call JP and tell him
to find out the previous owner
and to interview all
who worked for that owner.
Okay.
[cell phone vibrating]
Emil is calling at this hour?
Hi, honey.
- [Emil] A snake stung.
- Huh?
- A snake bit?
- [Emil] Yeah, you need to come here.
I'll come straight away.
Take the Ring and turn on the siren.
He's allergic.
- [switch clicking]
- [siren wailing]
[car engine revving]
Tell him not to move.
Don't move, honey. Has Grandpa given you
hydrocortisone? Are you nauseous?
[Emil] No, it stung Grandpa.
So the snake bit Grandpa,
not you, is that right?
[Emil] Yeah,
but you still need to come here.
Okay.
[Grandpa] Nothing to worry about.
The boy just got scared.
Tell grandpa I'll come anyway.
I'll be there soon.
[Emil] Okay, bye.
Bye.
It had bitten the old man after all.
Emil is spending
lots of time with his grandpa.
This is a temporary solution.
Community care's support action.
I was a mess after Henna went to prison,
and Emil started to act up.
Drive slower. We're in no rush.
There's a ferry once every hour.
[engine slowing]
The common adder used to hibernate
this time of the year.
Fucking cops beat up Mursu for no reason.
[house music playing]
Can we go home?
Let's not leave yet.
People are just about to warm up.
I'm feeling a bit weak.
How so?
I'm feeling sick.
Is your tolerance that bad?
I guess so.
Okay, let's go in a minute.
I'll go tell them.
[inaudible]
- [door opening]
- [car locks disengaging]
[car humming]
[Henna breathing heavily]
[tense music playing]
[sinister music playing]
[dramatic music playing]
[door opening, closing]
[Emil] Hey, Mom.
[Sofia] Hi, honey.
How are you?
I'm fine.
It might not have been a common adder.
Oh, well, what was it then?
Probably some other snake. [panting]
[Emil] May I stay up for a bit?
[Sofia] Yes, for a very short time.
[Emil] Yay.
[Sofia] What happened?
I've been suffering
from a-fib for some time now.
Sometimes it gets like this.
He noticed and got scared for nothing.
Isn't that dangerous?
[Grandpa scoffing]
[Sofia] When are you going to be examined?
I'm not going to at all.
[Sofia sighing]
Okay.
I'm very grateful for all this.
This has been more than necessary,
but I'll never let Emil stay here
for good.
They won't necessarily ask you.
You heard what the boy said.
[Sofia] Stop that bullshit.
You know they won't grant custody
to a man that age in that condition.
Emil fears that you'll die
because of your job.
I won't die.
You can't promise that,
and Emil knows that very well.
Still.
I want you to tell Emil
he won't be staying here permanently.
Emil will move home
when the plumbing renovation is ready.
And you'll support this idea
with social services.
Don't turn my son against me.
That boy is the only reason
why I'm still here.

[dramatic music playing]
[car chiming]
HIETA
ACCEPT/DECLINE
Hi.
[Hieta] Hi. Is Karppi still there?
Not anymore.
[Hieta] Her phone was turned off.
Tell her that the video works now.
A copy is on a disc on the desk
next to the investigation board.
It says "Karppi" on it.
What video is that?
[Hieta] Her own thing.
A truck's dashboard camera footage
around Europe.
Especially Germany.
I marked the 31st of August, 2016,
as she was interested in that.
Okay.
I'll tell her.
- Goodnight.
- [Hieta] Goodnight.
[Nurmi sighing]
[truck engine revving]
- [car tires screeching]
- [car crashing]
[dramatic music swelling]
How did it happen?
Nobody knows, really.
He went for a run in the dark
and didn't use a reflector.
A car ran over him and fled the scene.
I was most pissed
that we argued before he left. [sniffling]
It was the last time I saw him.
The police came and told us
Jussi had died.
But it wasn't your fault.
Or anyone else's.
I guess not.
