Okay, we won't.

I'll go and see Santtu.

- Who cares?

Tell your mother...

They had decided to take

Jaatinen's kids into care.

Jaatinen and the kids had

been missing for over a week.

In principle, I could have been

the one to pick up the children.

Does Sari blame me?

- It will pass.

She needs time to think.

- Don't bother.

It'll pass.

- I killed her brother.

I... First it looked like he didn't

even try to hit us, but then...

Then he started aiming at Kaskela...

We all saw what happened.

You won't be prosecuted.

Prosecuted? What?

I have killed a human being.

I wanted to kill him.

- Why?

Because I thought

that he had shot you.

I can never look Sari in the eye.

Why had Jaatinen

suddenly come home?

Just as...

And then Jere went there...

One thing is for sure.

No matter how this turns out,

I'm quitting the police force.

What are you going to do?

I could work for you.

That's not going to happen.

I'm going bankrupt.

There won't be a house.

There won't be anything.

I don't know how to tell Sari...

- What are you saying?

One f***ing company!

One f***ing house!

What the f*** does she care!

Jere has died!

I... - It's always about you!

My whole life,

dad has gone on about you.

Go away now. - What?

Just go away. - Santtu...

Go away! Go away or I'm

going to hit you! I'm serious.

Can I sleep next to you?

I don't blame Santtu.

I know that he did

what he had to do.

He didn't do anything wrong.

What did I do wrong?

With Jere.

I tried.

I wasn't that old myself.

Don't blame yourself.

- You didn't like him either.

That's not true.

- Don't bother.

No need to lie.

Sari. Sari!

We don't need this anymore.

- Are you sure?

This was addressed to me.

- Is this a bill?

"Dear Mrs. Luoto, you don't know

what kind of man you have married."

"Ask your good-for-nothing

man what's going on."

"Be careful

not to get hit by a car."

"I'm sorry that you have

a good-for-nothing man -

who doesn't pay his debts."

"Keep your eyes open."

It's from Jaatinen. He's

posted it before the weekend.

Why does it say

that you don't pay your debts?

Did you hear me?

It didn't go with Jaatinen

quite like I said.

I didn't pay his wages.

Why not?

Because...

I don't have any money.

I'm going bankrupt.

Wait a minute.

How long have you known this?

- I thought I'd make it somehow.

But I don't think I will.

If you love me,

why haven't you told me?

But now you know.

You have lied all along.

Just because you can't admit

that you have failed.

Koistinen, the bank,

they all conspire against me.

Don't you realise what you did?

Jere is dead! Jaatinen is dead!

His kids are orphans!

All because of your pride!

If you had told me, none of this

would've happened. D*ckhead!

It didn't go like that.

- Pack up.

What?

Sari, don't. What? - I don't

know the man I'm married to.

But this isn't...

Sari. I love you.

- Leave now.

I never want to see you again.

But this is my home.

This apartment is mine.

It's provided by my employer.

I'm going for a walk.

When I come back,

you're no longer here.

I don't want to live under

the same roof as you. Get it?

You are not

welcome at this funeral.

I wanted to see you.

- This is for family only.

And don't come to the school.

The kids fear you.

I want to see Annika.

She doesn't want to see you.

You forgot to say where you

got the cash for the microcar.

You stole from your daughter!

That was meant for her studies.

I only borrowed it.

Yeah, right.

Why don't you...

Could you at least call me.

- Why?

We can't go on like this.

Sari, what about this wreath?

Dad

Annika. - Everyone

has tried to call you.

I was just... - What?

Nothing. Not a thing.

Grandma... - What?

Grandma has died.

Is there enough to pay

for your fees?

I have no money. - Me neither.

I'm suspended for the present.

After my fees there will be...

So you both will get 210300.

For us?

Cash?

Sums like this are best

handled through the bank.

We naturally had

no prenuptial agreement.

I wanted to split everything.

I don't understand.

You left her.

But you wanted to give mum half.

- I didn't want to get a divorce.

When I sold my company, I thought

I would have time to be with her -

but I had been away for too long.

Kaarina was used to

mejust popping home.

When I stayed at home,

I was too much for her.

Why didn't you tell us?

- Tell what?

That I had taken

your mother for granted?

If Kaarina didn't want

to tell the truth, then fine.

What about Jutta?

Jutta, Jutta, Jutta...

She left.

I paid her for her company.

There was nothing between us.

Then why?

I thought that Kaarina would

look at me in a new way -

and that she would

see something in me...

She did.

And began to hate you.

I always put the company

before my family.

I have made other

misjudgements in my life.

With you, for example.

It's strange that I haven't been

able to treat my sons equally.

Sami, I see myself in you.

Not in you, Santtu.

I'm trying to say that...

Kaarina didn't make herself

a victim. She was a victim.

Guys...

Let's drink to Kaarina.

To mother.

Sh*t, don't come closer.

- Fewer reminders would've done.

The sum is 1800.

- Plus interest.

Sorry, I couldn't find baby carrots.

Here's the money: 2500.

That covers the interest.

You don't say. Bloody hell.

Yeah, I sometimes...

...overreact a little and so on.

But you understand that

these times affect me as well.

Yeah, that's right.

But as they say, -

opinions clash, not people.

It is all about principles.

Why don't we bury the hatchet?

Let's shake hands.

Like that and so on.

Hey, as a matter of fact -

I might have a potential

customer for Pihlaja...

No, thanks.

I'm selling them myself.

I only wanted to pay my debts.

Now we are even.

That's it then. - Goodbye.

Luoto, hey.

I trusted the whole time

that you would take care of this.

You're a good, proper guy, -

not a good-for-nothing man.

What did you say?

Good-for-nothing...

Hello and welcome.

There are shoe covers.

Please, come inside.

Nature is very close.

There are no services

and won't be for a few years.

A living room. There's space

for couches and a coffee table.

Dining table here.

And here, the windows face

nicely the back garden -

which deserves

a real gardening enthusiast.

You saw one bedroom already.

There are two more upstairs.

Maybe not master bedrooms,

but enough space for beds.

How does it sound? I will

throw in a live garden gnome.

A worn-out and stupid entrepreneur,

who'sjust gone bankrupt.

Forgive me. I am really sorry.

Could we build from scratch?

- Build?

You know what I mean.

We can't start over

after 18 years. - Not like that.

Let's start with a family hug.

You don't deserve this.

- I know.

I know.

Now this is my room.

Do you think the writing

is genuine? - For me it is.

Does anything else

matter? - I guess not.

No.
