All alone

because the girl didn't show

All alone

because the girl didn't show

He knows

the sound of her footsteps so well

He hears it every day

And at night

his peace of mind has gone astray

Even when he's asleep,

he waits in vain

He wishes that the fall of those

French heels would stop and then

For one moment, however small

He could see the girl again

You should show me

on your computer... - No, I won't!

How babies are made.

- No, I won't.

In case Sirkka and I

want to have a baby

That's not my problem.

It's none of my business.

- It's Kari and Sirkka's problem.

You see, I don't want children.

I don't ever want to become a dad.

Kalle! Sami doesn't want

to show me...

because he doesn't want

to become a father.

To show you what?

- I-low babies are made.

Well, well. Didn't they

teach you that in school?

Watch this.

He wasn't interested in me at all.

"I have to go to the gym."

You're too good for him, Terhi.

Where's Building N?

Let's behave ourselves, okay?

- You'll be okay.

Yeah, yeah.

Anyone got a tissue?

Oh yes.

Hello.

- Hello.

Here's the kid.

- What a lovely baby.

We're very grateful that

you had a wonderful little child...

and we want to give you

heartfelt congratulations...

with this fine card.

It's for you and the little one.

- Thank you, Pertti.

Is the baby healthy?

What a lovely baby!

Can he see anything?

- He sure can.

You mean he can see us?

- If you stand close.

Why does he keep his eyes shut then?

He just woke up.

He might be feeling a bit shy

Look, this is Pertti.

- I'm here.

I'm crying tears of joy

- That's a good reason to cry.

We hope you have a happy family

and don't quarrel too much.

And that there is no hate.

You need warmth and love

when you have a small baby

He needs warmth, love and

loveliness. - He'll get those.

I look like my mother.

Have you seen the photo?

- Yes.

My mother died in 1992.

I called Koskela Hospital...

and asked

if my mother was still alive.

"Your mother?" they said.

"Your mother passed away."

I felt very sad.

I felt sad because

my mother passed away.

No one called to tell me...

that Pertti Kurikka's mother

had passed away

They had a funeral for my mother,...

but no one told me.

Audience, if you wanna dance,...

dance, for f***'s sake!

They discuss

all kinds of things in Parliament

But I can't make out what they say

They make promises in Parliament

And break them everyday

I hate Parliament

I hate this world

I hate Parliament

I hate this world

I hate this world

I hate this world

You want to hear more?

More, goddammit!

Thanks. Toni, Pertti, Kari and Sami,

come to the office.

Come here.

Come on in. - Let's go,

Pertti Kurikka's Name Day

Let's see what's in here.

Guys, here's the first one.

- Here we go.

Our first record.

- Take a look. The black record.

Here you go.

- Thank you.

Here you go.

- Thank you.

Here you go.

- Thank you.

Here you go.

- Thank you.

Here you go.

- Thank you.

Pertti Kurikka's Name Day

Red Lounge Records.

I knew it.

- Great.

Both covers look great.

Guess who did that?

- You.

Yes, I did the artwork.

This is pretty awesome.

This is your record. - Oh, yes.

I have a reason to be grateful.

This is wonderful.

Next Tuesday we'll start

working on our second single.

Let's celeb rate the record

with a cup of coffee!

Toni, are you happy?

- Yes.

We have Pertti and Kari from Pertti

Kurikka's Name Day in the studio.

I won't stay in this group home

This has been going on too long

I can't take it any more

I'll move into my friend's house

You just had your birthday

and got engaged.

Congratulationsl

Well, I'm actually having

my engagement party today

That sounds great.

You have a lot of gigs and

people are buying your records.

People know you better.

Do people come up to you and say hi?

Like, "Kari, what's up?" - Yes.

Sometimes strangers will

come up to me in Kallio and say,...

"You're the singer

of Pertti Kurikka's Name Day"

But I don't mind; I'm cool with it.

Sounds good. I'm glad

you could make it to our show.

Have a nice summer and good gigs.

- Thank you.

It's Kari.

At least you didn't chicken out.

- No.

At last.

We've been waiting five years.

Which hand?

Beautiful.

Congratulations!

- Congratulations, Sirkka and Kari!

Congratulationsl

Everyone wants to clink

their glasses.

Congratulations, Kari!

- Thank you.

I-low does it feel to be engaged?

It's been a busy day but...

one has to move ahead in life

and have a woman.

When you're 35, you have

to settle down with a woman.

I'm not a teenager any more.

Even though I have gigs and all,...

I like to spend as much time

with Sirkka as possible...

when I don't have gigs.

One must take care of

both business and women.

Aren't you going to kiss me

goodbye? - Of course I am.

See you.

- Sure.

I'll come visit you next week.

- It's a date.

Bye bye, Finland!

- Bye bye, activity center!

It was nice knowing you.

See you around!

See you in December!

- December?

When I met you, we had fun

But then you started

acting abnormally

One, two, three, four!

You're not normal No, no, no

You're not normal No, no, no

You're not normal

Can you feel it?

- Yes!

Look that way or that way

- Sure.

F***. Goddammit.

Kari, look here.

- Slut!

Kalle, stop it!

I'll never forgive you.

I didn't apologize.

I don't want to forgive anybody.

I'll tell you what I think.

I'll tell you how it goes.

That's the kind of guy I am.

I'm a tough guy

You don't want to piss me off.

I'd be happy to break a finger.

I don't want to hang out

with anyone.

I'm not friends with anyone.

That's the way it is.

I'm not friends with anyone.

My hatred is growing.

I hate Sami Helle.

I'll hit Sami Helle.

Where are you taking us?

- There's a... - F***.

There's the Beatles memorial,

if you're interested.

I'm sorry I got a bit angry

- it's okay

There's so much on my mind.

You must be tired.

You've been working so hard.

Yes, I'm tired.

Everything's alright, Pertti.

Hang in there.

Am I still tired?

- A bit, but that's alright.

I'm trying my best,

but I'm just so tired.

Tomorrow you can chill out all day.

Sound good? - Yes.

Kalle, is that table dancing?

Yes, girls dance

boogie-woogie on the table.

They dance boogie-Woogie?

- That's right.

Sami, what happened?

Get up.

Stop staring at tits

and watch where you're going.

This is a dangerous street.

- I see d*cks. A dick!

A dick! D*cks!

There are whores! A whore!

Wowzers, what a chick! Damn.

Whoa! Look at those tits!

Look! There it is.

That's the Beatles playing a gig.

Play boogie-woogie!

We'll play boogie-woogie

like never before.

Here's Sami Helle.

Toni Vlitalo.

Pertti Kurikka and Kari.

Sankt Pauli and Reeperbahn

That is where I left my heart

Pertti isn't normal

Good evening, Germany!

I love you!

Pertti Kurikka's Name Day!

You're not normal

You're not normal

You're not normal

You're abnormal

When I met you, we had fun

But then you started
