Bullets (2018–…): Season 1, Episode 2 - Courier - full transcript
Mari's mission collide's with narcotic cop Viita's case, two different detectives have to find ways to cooperate. A new and dangerous factor comes into play, leaving behind trail of bodies.
Who's that guy?
Why did you bring this here?
Gun!
You should cooperate with us.
Release her.
Direct order from above.
Did we stumble into
someone else's case?
Your new name is Mari Saari.
You're a social worker.
Is this where she works?
- We were told to stay away.
- No, we just had to release her.
Call us if her condition changes.
Only hospital staff are allowed
through this door, okay?
Zamira Hoxha's stomach contained
11 pacs of an unknown substance.
- Her condition's critical.
- You have to find the passport.
I'm on my way to the refugee centre.
Her photo's been superimposed
on an authentic passport.
What does Immigration know
about the woman whose passport it was?
Zamira Hoxha...
Fleeing unrest
in the northern Caucasus.
Sought asylum in Finland
but did a 3,000-kilometre detour
from Chechnya to Brussels on the way.
Where the fake passports we're after
were probably made.
She intended to pick up
a drug shipment there?
But for some reason,
our comatose lady stole her identity
and took her place.
Why?
Have you told Jaana's parents?
You know the procedure
when a case is still open.
They have a right to know
their daughter's dead.
I'll do it
as soon as it becomes possible.
Who would you inform if I died?
Almaz Kosar Abdi.
Came to Finland eight years ago.
Learned the language
and studied nursing.
The Helsinki Somali community know
of her, but nobody really knows her.
Possible accomplice of Holma's.
- Mari...
- Hi, can I come in?
Are you going somewhere?
What's wrong?
Whatever is troubling you,
you can tell me.
Anything...
Everything's all right. Don't cry.
Everything's okay.
I know.
I know. Everything's okay.
Detective Superintendent Timo Viita.
I'm interested in a female patient
brought here last night
from the refugee centre.
- You're from Narcotics.
- Yes.
What's her situation?
We were prepared to operate
but the foreign objects
came out the natural way.
She's been under the influence
of the narcotic for at least 24 hours.
Do you have any clue
what substance it could be?
There's 100 new designer drugs
in the EU every year.
We'd have to analyse it at the lab.
Someone from your department
has already picked the packets up.
From the Drug Unit?
As a nurse, I carry out
a health exam for all newcomers.
And that's when
they give you the drugs.
Is she all right?
Everything will be okay.
- Mari, you have to go now.
- I'm not going anywhere.
No, you have to go.
Trust me. Go.
Her condition is still critical.
We'll wait overnight.
Zamira...
Good morning.
What's the time?
- I was waiting for the lab analysis.
- Here.
The analysis says our comatose lady
was smuggling Syrian amphetamine
with the street name "Ammo".
Is this it?
We'll ask the Drug Unit
for assistance.
I'm not giving them my case.
Do you know anything about
the trade in Syrian amphetamine?
The number of lost and stolen
passports in the EU
has doubled in the last five years.
Nobody knows
the number of fake passports.
So this is about passports?
Lots of people are on the move
from the Middle East to Europe,
some under a false identity.
Senior Inspector Karla Tuomi
from the Intelligence Unit.
Timo Viita.
- Detective...
- Mari Saari.
Right.
The Intelligence Unit
has a few questions.
I promised our full cooperation.
Of course.
A- M-M-O, Ammo. The Syrian civil
war's gift to the rest of the world.
People are fleeing the war to Europe,
bringing Ammo with them.
But why Finland? Belgium takes
15 times more refugees
and its borders aren't closely guarded.
Finland can't be much of a market.
- Big enough for one man.
- You mean Jari Holma?
Sources in Sweden say the Malmö cartel
hasn't given its blessing to Holma.
He used their reputation
to take over the Ammo business.
We're giving you all we know,
you're telling us nothing.
- Why were you at the terminal?
- It's classified information.
Why the fuck couldn't you tell us
the two of you were cops?
Carry on.
- I want to talk to Almaz.
- No way.
She'll flee the country
if she thinks the cops are after her.
Arrest her
and say goodbye to Holma.
If you want Holma,
this woman's your key.
You think he'd risk
meeting with her again?
Mari, we have no resources
to investigate the drugs.
Where have you been?
I had to think about the situation.
I'm really worried.
What happened?
- They took the mule by ambulance.
- So where is the stuff?
- Does it matter? We're rich enough.
- It matters a hell of a lot.
- Let's just leave.
- That wasn't the plan.
Nothing's enough for you.
You just want more and more.
I may have killed someone.
Take this. I'll call you.
Don't go.
Don't leave me alone again.
Yeah.
I need you here.
What's happened?
I can't tell you on the phone.
The Belgian police
found Zamira Hoxha's body.
Drug dealers had killed her
and stolen her passport.
Then someone killed
the drug dealers.
- Were there cameras?
- Yes, but somehow they didn't work.
Who's this?
He's the Arab.
His real name's Mahmoud Hassan.
In addition to forging passports,
he ran a drug smuggling operation.
Syrian amphetamine.
So this is the counterfeiter
we've been chasing for six months?
Congratulations,
the case is over for us.
Over?
Zamira Hoxha and the Arab are dead.
Don't you want to know why?
I'll read the Brussels police report
after they solve the case.
And where does this lady fit in?
She's a drug mule.
Leave her for Viita.
I suggest you take some time off.
We just won,
if you still haven't understood.
Tell that to Jaana Kulmala.
Almaz Abdi, 2nd floor.
Timppa...
What really
happened at the shooting?
It was over when we got there.
The only person
who knows for sure is Mari Saari.
Sorry...
I think you dropped your wallet.
Hi, I'm Kimi.
Hi, Kimi.
Can you give me the wallet?
- You won't tell me your name?
- Wallet, please.
Everything should be there.
Want to go
for a cup of coffee or a meal?
Kind of like a finder's fee.
A simple thank you will also do.
Thank you.
- I'm Mari Saari.
- Kimi Ekmann.
Well?
- Death by suffocation.
- Strangled.
We can't be sure
until the jumpsuits arrive.
- Are they coming?
- On their way.
Could it be Holma?
Looks like it.
Didn't want to leave witnesses
or share the profits.
- Maybe.
- I'd say probably.
- But this doesn't look like his M.O.
- He just shot a cop.
He was being chased.
Maybe he just panicked.
This looks premeditated.
Almaz wasn't at work
today or yesterday.
Someone called the refugee centre
asking for Zamira Hoxha.
They gave Almaz's contact details.
Start tracing that call.
No, no...
I'm going to have a look inside.
Yeah?
Okay, I'll be done in a minute.
- Are you taking anything?
- What?
You know, I was thinking maybe
the three of us should go somewhere.
Somewhere warm.
- For a longer time.
- With what money?
I'm sure we can work something out.
I don't know...
Maybe I'm just tired.
Is Ronja in her room?
Take a look.
Hi.
- What are you watching?
- Nothing.
Have you been home all evening?
Maybe you and Mum should be happy
I spend so much time at home.
- Is everything all right?
- Whatever.
Whatever.
- She was crying again today.
- Who?
Mum.
Crying? Why?
Maybe you should ask her.
- Hello?
- It's Viita. Where are you?
What do you want?
I have some bad news.
We don't really know
what we're investigating.
- What are you on about?
- Almaz Kosar Abdi's dead.
- No, no...
- Yes.
I can't talk to you now.
- Why not?
- Because...
I can't get in touch with Zamira Hoxha's
guard at the hospital.
Shit. You guys
have totally screwed up.
I'm going to the hospital, then.
Why did you bring this here?
Gun!
You should cooperate with us.
Release her.
