I'll take a cab. Half a hour.

Goddammit, I'm sure you can skip one gig.

It's a symphony orchestra! The "wolf border",

of course I thought you meant Ring III.

I didn't f***ing think that

it's thought to be the 'wolf border'!

Of course you f***ing didn't!

How could I? I'm from the countryside.

Never heard of it.

We should get to know each other.

I'd like to know my only son.

It's good to start with lying.

- I didn't lie to you.

I don't believe a single word you say.

- But you, you lied to me.

Me? How so?

Your family lives in Rovaniemi,

and you're selling the flat.

The broker came by?

- He did. I took care of it.

You have a sister in Jyvskyl.

A sister!

You thought we could stop by there first.

You said I'm your only son.

- Yes, son. The only son.

For f*** sake...

Hey...

Thanks for the ride.

Hey, there! Go there!

We need to take something with us.

Timo Porala here. Listen,

I can't play tonight.

I have a migraine.

It started yesterday at the concert.

I'll find a stand-in.

Thanks a lot.

I caught one! Come and help.

Can you pick it up?

- How?

Behind the head. Fast,

before it gets away.

Not from the line! Take it!

Good, Timo!

- Goddammit!

Now my shoes are all wet!

- Don't let it go!

At least a kilo.

- It's all slimy.

It's... Torpparinkuja 29.

My earns are ringing. Tinnitus is starting.

- I had it for many years,

when I was touring with the band.

I was about to crazy.

It'd start from the smallest clang.

When someone threw keys on the table,

or a ping from a pint, anything.

What did you play?

- Bass.

Okay. - I sang as well.

I sang a lot. I hymmed.

You did what?

- Hummed. You know.

Look! What do we have here?

Look, a new travel companion. A cat!

You'll wait in the car

as we visit the relatives.

Paakku? Have you told them

that we're coming?

In Finland you can visit relatives

just by knocking at the door.

That's how it is.

Yes?

Is your surname Paakku?

- Yes.

Do you have a wife called Minna?

- Yes.

Leo, Minna's father.

Timo, Minna's brother.

Sorry, but what is this?

- We've come for a visit. Here you are.

Minna's sleeping.

- Darling, who's there?

Minna!

- Your father came for a visit.

We have a cat with us, in the car.

So if you don't want the fish,

the cat can always eat it.

What can we cook from this?

- I don't know.

I hope we didn't disturb you

with our surprise visit.

No. - We were just screwing

for the first time in six months.

That's why Pertti is sulking.

- I'm not sulking.

Okay...

Why did you have to...

- It's true, isn't it?

When we talk about this,

it should remain between you and me.

Does it matter, who we talk about it?

You somehow look familiar, Timo.
