Look of a Killer (2011): Season 1, Episode 5 - Ystävät kaukana - osa 1 - full transcript

Who owns this?
- Legally me through a company, -

but really it's Ryshkov.
- A Russian?

Estonian businessman.

But what happens
now that Ryshkov is dead?

I know the new landlord.
- Who's that?

Me.
- Member of the owning class.

A few apartments
and a construction company.

All this is a gift
from the Ryshkov estate?

I owned a part and
bought the rest in an honest way.

You make me laugh!

New car?
- Got with the Ryshkov money.



You'll get more soon.
- Don't worry.

Let's go see a house.
- It's a nice size.

I want to move in here with you.

It's going to be a nice home for you.
I want to end this.

Mother died last night.

LOOK OF A KILLER

When I leaned to read,
I drew a similar ID card for myself, -

colored it and wrote
with my dad's pen: KGB.

Father laughed at it
but mother was upset -

and told me not to make fun
of serious things.

Viktor Nikolayevich, a word.
- Do I know you?

We know you.
- We want to talk about late Ryshkov.

Or his assets.
- Which you have confiscated.

With wrongdoing.



Throw me a tenner, K?rpp?.
I want a pastry.

I forgot my wallet.
- Show your badge to the twins here.

Why? - They're poor and
have never seen anything beautiful.

We'll get back to you.

Since I saved you from Sodoma,
you can buy me a bite.

Sure, Teppo.

FRIENDS FAR AWAY
EPISODE 5

It's funny that I always run
into Russian criminals with you.

Which is good,
since I investigate Russian crime.

But I never, I repeat, never,
get any tips from you.

I'm an entrepreneur,
not a full-time snitch.

Half-time would be enough.

And as for your business,
it has been allowed to grow -

only because the police
have a blind spot. Me.

My business is honest.
- Where did Ryshkov get his money?

Some might think
you've laundered money.

What are you trying to say?

If you don't want us looking too
closely at Ryshkov's business, -

then you should help me out.
- I'll tell you if I see something criminal.

It's just very rare
in honest business.

Cut the crap, K?rpp?.

Morning, Oksana.

What's wrong?
- Two men went into your office.

Young, with hats on?
- Shall I call the police?

Let's try talking first.

You guys stick to people
like dog shit to shoes.

I doubt this interests you.

I'm interested in my own business.
- This is my business.

Just sign this and we'll get
Ryshkov's inheritance back.

Who sent you?
- Justice.

Remember what you said.

We stick to things.

Vitjuha, what's is going to happen?
- Don't you start!

Valle!
What are you doing here?

Got bored in Sortavala,
so I came here to shop and have fun.

And to see my old friend,
who greets me with a gun.

You could have called,
I would've lost the gun.

How long are you staying?
- Leaving tomorrow.

So soon?

We used to have
all the time in the world.

Where's Marja?

I see.

Different lifestyles.

Marja didn't understand my working
hours and ways and my morale.

I guess Marja is rich enough
to afford morale.

Unlike us.

More coffee?
- No more here, but to go, sure.

Sofia, the school cook.
- Mrs. Stalin.

Was there something else?

Whose guys were they?

I don't know.
They didn't say.

St. Petersburg mafia?
- Ryshkov wasn't their man.

I may need help.
- You've got it.

But think carefully
whether money is worth fighting for.

Guys!

I need your help.
Hide your name tags.

What do you want?

Just a reminder.
- I remember yesterday well.

Then you know what to do.
- Don't come empty-handed to a job.

Bring a shovel
and I'll give you a job.

Remember this, K?rpp?:
A good business is a good business.

And a bad business may cost you
more than income.

I want to put all my business
into a holding company.

Protection against the tax man?
- No, Russian thieves.

Who exactly, if I may ask?
- I don't know.

It's not a million dollar business,
so it must be personal.

I took along the papers
of a few companies.

Off-shore holdings,
Virgin Islands and Isle of Man.

Do you have a preference?

Aluut Ltd?

That's my dear missus,
Tuula spelled backwards.

And Irual is...
- Yes, Lauri.

My son.
Lawyers' sense of humor.

Some Russians may come
and ask about Ryshkov's assets.

I'm not your client.
Deny Jesus himself, if necessary.

That's all part of the service.

Thank you.
- You're welcome.

Hi there.
- Hi.

Come in.

What's up?
- All kinds of things. And you?

Busy.

Give me your coat,
you will be hot.

Was it something important?

I mean it's nice to see you.

I mean it.

Right.

Nice wallpaper in there.

Don't have time
to finish the renovations.

Coffee?
- No thanks, I quit.

Do you want to sit down?
Please, sit down.

I've been thinking
about you a lot.

I left some books
at your old place.

They're upstairs in the study.

I meant to bring them,
but I've been busy.

Viktor, I...
- Sorry.

Oksana. I have to take this.

Viktor.
- One of the men is outside in a car.

Those that came here the other day.
I'm afraid to go out.

They'll kill me.
- I'll be there in 15 minutes.

Oksana, listen!
Don't worry.

Viktor...

Sorry, I have to go to the office.
I'm sorry.

Viki! I want to talk.
- I really have to go.

It won't take long.
Wait here, please!

I have many things to talk about.
- Same here.

45 minutes max.
Okay?

Is he gone?
- I'll take you home.

Director Kutuzov, please.

Kornostayev, Viktor Nikolayevich.
From Helsinki.

I see.
Can you please have him call me?

There's nobody in here.
Your friend escaped.

We want to talk to her also.
- Why?

This fire was set.
It started there.

Marja disappeared yesterday.
Are you behind this?

With all due respect,
Viktor Nikolayevich, -

your little business
is not of interest to us.

But I can try and find out
who is after you.

I'm grateful and owe you one.

He who counts favors,
forgets friendship.

I'll get back to you.

Where's Marja?
- Did your house burn down?

Get him!

He's getting away.

Come on!
Come on!

What's the sentence
for killing a police officer?

I'm expecting guests.
- I'm here.

I took a course in the importance
of the police-snitch relationship.

Come in.

Do you have glasses?
- Yes.

Bring them to the table.

Okay then.

If this is going to be
like pulling teeth, -

we've got a long day
before I get any real tips.

What about blackmail,
arson and kidnapping?

Halleluiah!
One bottle of brandy -

and the shit flood opens up
like in the River Neva.

Who's been kidnapped?

Marja.
They tried to burn my house.

Marja was in there.

When I got there, the fire brigade
was there and Marja wasn't.

Who tried to burn it?
- A couple of Ingrians.

Why?
- They want Ryshkov's inheritance.

They were looking for me at home.
I wonder if the know about this.

They know.

Shit!

What took you?
- My brandy.

Three guys.
I'll get a patrol here.

A firearm offense,
you'll just get a fine.

I'll testify. Where's your car?

Behind that hill.
- Let's go.

Hi there.
Some socks, underwear and T-shirts.

That's all I have.
- Thank you.

Go by Marja's apartment twice a day
and check her office.

If she's there, call me immediately.
Take her to a safe place.

What are you going to do?

It's better you don't know.

Take care.

Where to?

Am I talking to a police officer
or a friend helping a friend?

Let's go towards Kontula,
I'll tell you more later.

Is he reliable?
- He's a cop.

Did you buy him?
That's smart.

What do you have?
- Kalashnikovs, fresh from the plant.

Bulgarian model.
- What about handguns?

CZ75. 9 mm.

This and the Kalashnikov.

A regular service van.
I'll memorize the plates.

In an hour,
the plates have been changed.

The world never ceases
to amaze me.

Take me to the beltway,
I'll get a car from Ruuskanen.

And you'll ride into the sunset,
the Lonely Avenger.

I need answers to some questions.

I gotta go home,
the younger one's birthday.

But they're twins.
- They were born an hour apart.

This won't take long.

Can you talk?
- What's up, Vitjuha?

Anything new?

They tried to burn my house
and Marja is missing.

Mother, let me do that!
- I'm coming to Russia.

When?
- Soon.

Where are you now?
- Waiting for Korhonen.

Let me know if I can help.
- I'll call you.

Are you moving somewhere?

Old clothes for the poor
in Sortavala and my toothbrush.

You think you're coming with me?
- Do you have a choice?

Where to?

Where did they come from?

Drive!
- Teppo Korhonen, regular Fittipaldi.

In a few minutes, the place
will be swarming with your guys.

I wonder if this was
wrongful use of service weapon.

You can figure it out
with your colleagues.

That's my own car,
be careful. - Thanks.

Is your friend from
across the border?

Korhonen from the police.
This side of all borders.

If you're still hungry for a car...
- I'm only hungry for information.

I'm sure you'll fix Teppo's car
while we're away.

It looks bad.

Financially, do you have...
- You're messing with the odometers.

What?
- Fixing the odometers.

No, of course not!

Buy stolen cars and change
the vehicle identification number.

Of course I don't do that.

What's this all about?
- Fix his car and he'll forget it.

Change the timing belt as well.

What's the point of that?

They found us too fast. Only you
and Karpov knew where I am.

And I called the bad guys?
- It's possible.

But unlikely.

Your endless trust in me
makes me feel all warm inside.

They traced my phone.
Can't do that now.

It's live and learn
with you crooks.

There's food in the fridge.

Where am I?
- Safe.

Do you know the punishment
for kidnapping?

You have the whole dacha
to yourself.

Are you some kind of guard?

There are pain killers there.

Make a list
if you want something from the store.

What is this about?
- I'm sorry.

All TV series here
are dubbed in Russian.

What? Am I in Russia?
- See you.

Hey!

Good morning Finland
How are you?

Don't you know me
I'm your native son, -

Decision-makers in Helsinki
Complain about the recession

I did what I could..
- Can you please stop that!

You've been very irritable lately.
How come?

Maybe Marja just left
before the fire started.

And forgot her cell phone
on the floor?

She was in a crisis mode
and forgot, like women do.

Women are not so
materialistic as us men.

Women are interested
in relationships, -

not cold material things.
- Shut up.

You've had a long crisis,
that's when the relationship...

Is tested. If you want to talk,
I'm listening.

So you're a psychologist now?

Hey, I'm married
to a Finnish Swede, a psychologist.

I've learned something,
and it's not the culture.

He'll talk when he's ready.

Karpov doesn't answer.
- Do you trust him?

I've known him since a kid,
went to the Sports Academy together.

Went to Moscow to the
70th Anniversary Revolution Parade.

Met Brezhnev and Castro.
- I guess. It was a big thing.

Our neighbor's son went to Helsinki
to the Championship Games.

He was on a human pyramid,
it was on TV.

The world was bigger before.

I never got to go anywhere.
Always had to make hay or shovel shit.

On Sundays, we were forced
to listen to the Mass on the radio.

That explains why you're
such a bigot and a redneck.

I didn't have any real friends.
I can drive now.

Where are we going?
- To Kuhmo.

Can we cross the border there?
- Don't ask. You're a police officer.

Wake me up when we get there.

You're not wearing your seat belt.
- So fine me.

Shine and rise!

Where are we?
- In Kitee, Paapanniemi.

My brother's cottage.

What say you
we have a sauna and a think.

We need to push on.
- I'm warming the sauna.

The keys!

A piece of our family land.

The place gets its name
from my mother's grandfather.

Give me the car keys.
- Sorry, started the fire already.

Nothing smells as good
as dry birch wood in the sauna oven.

I'll push the car
into the garage.

Hi, Vitjuha.
- Valle, hello.

Where are you?
- In Kitee, Korhonen's cottage.

What are you going to do?
- I'm crossing over.

They say all the punks from Sortavala
and Vyborg are looking for you, -

and so is the Border Guard.
- Do you know this for sure?

Vitjuha, don't come over.
It will get you killed.

Thanks for the advice.

There's a shorter route to the road,
but the landowner refused access, -

so we had to go
around the whole lake.

Is this an important place for you?

I escaped my dad's beatings
by coming here every summer.

We had to chop wood and weed
the potatoes, but it was still great.

We?
- Me and my friend Juuso.

You said
you didn't have any friends.

Yes.

Juuso went and drowned.
Spring 1982.

With roots like this, it's difficult
to understand the granny-beaters -

pill pushers and
drug dealers.

But these sweethearts still
go to the same Sunday school.

Nobody has the guts to tell
that things are hell at home.

Mommy brought in a new daddy
for 15 minutes.

She might have HIV.

Can't say,
I don't have children.

Maybe you should get children.
New values to your life.

Are there other cottages nearby?
- No.

Then we have visitors.

They're mirroring your cell phone.
- My cell phone?

Those pajama guys showed up
90 minutes after you called Karpov.

That's plenty of time
to get here from the border.

Wake up, Cinderella.
We're here.

Wake up!

No! Not here!
I don't want to be here!

Hope you didn't catch a cold!
