Well well, look at this...

Are you sure no-one's home?

- Pretty sure.

What do you mean 'pretty'?

What if some geezer

skitters forth with a shotgun?

We'll run. Or say:

'Make us some coffee.'

Let's be quick,

What about these?

- They're glass.

No, they're crystal!

Here's only some shot glasses.

Look at this!

This could be a good foreplay

with some chick!

Right...

- Then what?

Let's start with these.

Got it?

- Yeah.

We've got to be quick. Quickly now!

I found some tools!

Let's take them.

- Totally.

Did anyone look down there?

Wow. Unbelievable.

It's like heaven!

Exactly what I want.

The cans could go here.

I could put up narrow shelves

and arrange the cans by country.

Cover them up with Plexiglas

so I won't have to dust them,

Hey, there's a bar!

- F***ing hell.

No way! An album by Dolly Parton!

She's unbelievably hot!

Isn't she an old hag?

- She's a quality babe.

Oops!

Oops,

Hey, Vn!

Kill the music! Someone can hear!

Vn, let's get out of here!

Let's go!

- Yeah, yeah.

Was there someone there?

- Whoa!

Was there?

- No idea,

Yes!

That stuff is totally worth a grand.

- What's that bloody garden gnome?

Did you nick a f***ing eagle, eh?

What's that?

- Did I hit something?

What the f*** is that sound?

- It's coming from here.

Maybe it's the exhaust. Pull over!

The pipe fell apart.

Did it come loose?

- The clamp is broken,

It'll take a couple of minutes.

It's easy to fix.

Mayfly larvae are best

for ice fishing.

Sh*t!

- I've used normal maggots.

Yeah.

- It's so traditional.

Well, maybe it just conked out.

There are tools.

Maybe they tried to fix it.

Will you check the plate number?

- Yeah.

Have you tried blue maggots?

Yeah, when catching perches.

But not for chars,

Do chars like different colour?

Freeze! This is the police! Get down!

Let me go!

F***! Stop it!

Take it easy.

- F***ing let me go!

You're breaking my arm!

My shoulder...

- This was a spunky one.

Station, this is fourteen.

Will you check this plate number...

- Let's go. - If we leave the van,

this was all for nothing.

We must finish this, or we'll have

both the cops and Murikka after us.

Walk home if you're so scared!

Just carry it in.

For ages over 7.

Why not even younger...

Are we even?

Goddammit, ball boy.

I'd never have thought...

Stop by at the pub sometime,

I'll buy you a pint.

We couldn't do anything fancy.

The equipment in our school's

film club is not that good.

I like this bit.

Check this out!

This is a no-budget film.

I'll call you.

What happened to you?

- What do you mean?

Do you think

they'll like you like that?

F***ing sixth-former. You reckon

you'll get in by putting out?

Where are you going?

- Another time.

I can do it,

you just have to stand still.

Why did it have to be Hartsa

who got caught.

With his previous

car thefts and all.,.

How about the flat in NYC?

- Still working on it.

It's looking good.

Look!

- Hartsa,

Is everything okay?

- Good to see you.

Should we go to Jane's now?

- I think I'll go home.

I see. Okay.

Are we going?

- Yeah, let's go.

Can you give me a ride

or something?

Mum.,.

I'm making a mess. Lend me a hand.

Were you saying something?

- Well,.,

I'm not sure if the sixth form

is my thing...

Yeah, you struggled at school

even when you were little.

I thought you were never

going to learn how to read.

Remember that time

at the railway station when you read:

R-E-K-O-L-A...

Korso!

The cops called the van's owner.

He looked outside and was like 'what? '

The van was parked right there.

- And you didn't say anything?

They kept grilling me about the van.

And they asked about some house,

but they didn't have any proof.

Way to go, Hartsa! You showed them!

Let's drink to that, Bottoms up!

Well, there's still

'resisting arrest with violence'.

Are you going inside?

We'll see,

Tomorrow you'll be

somewhere above the Atlantic,

You're a celebrity soon.

- And the top 5 of people we shag...

First I'm gonna make Miley Cyrus

bite the pillow!

What about you, Markus?

- Not now.

Don't be such a tight-arse.

- I'm not in the mood.

Are you getting your period?

I can get you some p*ssy pads...

I said leave it!

I forgot,

Markus is better than the rest.

Hey, guys. Tonight we'll celebrate!

I'm going now.

You borrowed my hoodie.

Do you have it?

What I said earlier...

- I heard Hartsa is going to jail.

Do you have something to do with it?

- Stop listening to bullshit.

Heta said you're leaving today.

Bloody boots.

- You came,

I figured I can come and say bye.

Wanna warm up?

White boy...

Can you play at all?

'I'm Jojo, a great film director.'

'Everybody sucks

except me and Ed Wood.'

You think you'll make it in New York?

You're gonna be f***ed.

Show me what you've got!

You're f***ing pathetic!

Did it feel good?

Calm down!

- F***ing coon, yuck.

Stop it!

Get off him!

Who do you think you are?

You and your stuck-up friends!

You know nothing about real life!

I didn't mean it!

- You're so f***ing fake!

Give me a break,

Ladies and gentlemen, the train

will wait for another train to pass.

We'll stop for a couple of minutes.

Vantaa, the foggy and misty city

No-one even knows their neighbour

Everyone's in a hurry,

smiles are rare

The invisible strings

tug and pull at the puppets

I see the sturdy forest

and the blue hills

Mummy!

Let's give a big hand to Murikka

for a great performance.

Next up is Pena with

'The Shadows of the Night'.

I can buy you that pint now.

Two pints,

Have you been in a fight?

Come sit with us,

Mhnen...

- What did he do?

He kicked in the rear window

of some crappy Mazda.

His foot got stuck

and he was dragged behind the car.

His face was a bloody pulp.

- What did he say?

'Where can I get more booze? '

Goddammit,

Did Mhnen's face

look a bit different?

Should we take him to the hospital?

What the f*** are you doing here?

You're flight is leaving.

In seven minutes!

I don't think I'll make it.

- What are you on about?

Beer...

Markus, what are you doing?

It's a f***ing shame,

but hey, I'm an a**hole.

Let's go.

- And leave that idiot alone.

Hey, guys. No smoking.

It's the law.

Law? It's the law, eh?

- Yes.

It's the Finnish law!

- One drag and I'll put it out.

Look, what the f*** is he doing?

Goddammit!

He stubbed it out on his forehead!

Bring us more booze!

Drink up, drink up!

A toast to Korso.

- To Korso,

Korso, Korso...

Hey, where are we going?

Korso!

Calm the f*** down!

When I look at you,

I see myself 15 years ago.

We do things, and others follow.

You're so f***ing crazy that you're

capable of anything! Get it?

Have some, go on.

Hey, ball boy! Going for a jog?

Where do you think you're going?

Leave me alone.

I'm gonna smash your face.

- F***ing p*ssy.

Your dick is so small you couldn't

stand your sister f***ing a black guy.

F***!

Kick his ass!

You don't have to worry.

The n*gger is out.

Heta dumped me,

F***ing coon.

- Kick his ass already!
