02x04 - The Rite of Spring, part 2

[bunniefuu]

-Heikki. You are my assistant today.
-But I'm still doing this.

Heikki!

One,

two, three, four...

Would you like to taste this?

Well?

Are you afraid to taste it?

I thought you were a brave boy.

Heikki! What are you doing?

Did you eat that? You know the rules.

But you help yourself when no one's
stopping you.

-But you said--
-No, I didn't!

I asked if you'd dare eat it.

Did I give you permission to eat it?
Tell me.

-Did I?
-No.

Shall I tell your Mom and Dad?

Heikki.

I'm the boss here.

I don't have to tell anyone.

We can fix this.

Can you keep a secret?

I have to be really sure
you can keep a secret.

-Promise me.
-I promise.

Say,

-I promise you, Kaija.
-I promise you, Kaija.

Take off your shirt and trousers.

Shall I call your Mom and Dad
and tell them you broke our rules?

Or would you rather do as you're told?

Good.

Close your eyes.

Take off your underpants.

Give me your hand.

JALMARI: Do you recognize her?

What is it?

Nothing.

I nearly dropped my phone, that's all.

Did you have another nightmare?

No.

This isn't normal anymore.
You wake up every night.

You have to get yourself sorted.

Talk to a professional about this.

I don't know.

This is affecting us all.

Onni, too.

Onni is better off in the other place.

You're affecting him.

He's afraid.

I'll deal with it.

Promise me you won't tell anyone.

-Right there.
-This stays here.

Between ''promise me" and "won't tell''.

...won't tell anyone. It stays here.

Did you hear that?

Sounds like a cut.

-A snapping sound.
-...stays here.

So that proves I was wrong.

-It does.
-Good.

This stays here. Between us two.

The video about Susanna Lehto
and the children was edited.

By the m*rder victim?

Ronja recorded Susanna's speech
and attached it to the video.

The videos also connect different
incidents at the day care center

to manipulate the viewer.

But it was Susanna Lehto's voice?

Yes, but Susanna hasn't done anything,

at least anything the video implies.

-But you were convinced she's guilty.
- I was wrong.

Susanna had nothing to do with the fetus.

She didn't k*ll Ronja.

We have footage

of Susanna leaving the victim's home.

-We have what we need.
-It just looks like that.

Susanna's own fetus is found in her home.

An employee of hers films incidents
at the day care center and gets k*lled.

How do you turn that into innocence?

We don't know yet why things
look that way, that's how.

You were wrong once.

I can't release anybody based on
one policeman's doubts.

I agree.

-Let's pick up where we left off.
-Let Niko interview her.

-We have nothing to lose.
-Except for time and resources.

-We'll continue the interrogations.
-I won't release her on these grounds.

How did you finally notice
you were pregnant?

Why should I answer that?

The fetus was 16 weeks old
when it was aborted.

Things wouldn't have gone that far
if you'd known?

Of course not.

Maybe I'll just ask you
about things in general,

and you can answer yes or no,

so we'll get an overall picture.

Did you know the father of the child?

I didn't sleep with him by accident,
if that's what you mean.

"Yes" or "no" will suffice, as I said.

Had you known him for long?

He didn't know about
the pregnancy or the ab*rtion.

In 1992...

you left Kotka.

You used to work
at Palotorni day care center.

Did something happen
at the day care center

that made you leave town
and change your name?

-No.
-No?

Nothing happened that

made you quit your job, leave town

and change your whole name?

No.

Your supervisor at the day care center
was called Hannele, right?

Yes.

Well, Hannele told us
you'd made a deal there.

Concerning your transgressions,
your crimes against children.

After the deal,
which you made with the parents,

you quit your job and left, as agreed.

And promised you'd

never work with children
at a day care center again.

I can't provide an answer to
what Hannele has told you.

The value of Paul Degerman's estate
is approximately seven million euros.

In the absence of a will, all of you three
descendants would inherit 2.3 million.

Are you familiar with the term legitime?

It's one half of an heir's portion.

According to Paul's will,
that legal share goes to...

Robert.

The rest is to be divided between
Anneli and Elias.

What does that mean? Me and Elias?

Yes, exactly so, about 2.9 million each.

But...

I don't need it.
I mean, I already got a pre-inheritance.

-That will be considered.
-Robert...

Sounds like Paul. This is the way
it's supposed to go, isn't it?

The ownership of the buildings
and the company are also dealt with.

"The ownership of Degerman Concern
and its fixed assets are assigned to

Anneli Johanna Ahola."

-He was a chauvinist, this makes no sense.
-Well, you are the man in our family.

The will contains no explanations,
no letter.

-I don't get it.
-You can do anything you like now.

Become a professional photographer.

They expect me to do Degerman stuff
with the money.

It's family money.

There were no conditions.

The love child who destroyed
the family fortune. I...

I can't be that guy.

It might be hard for you to understand
I really didn't want this.

What I meant was...

if you still feel uneasy about the
inheritance after a week or two

you can give it to a good cause
or something.

If Susanna did something to the kids in
Kotka, why couldn't she do the same here?

They're blackening her name.

They're just trying
to catch a perpetrator.

-Except if she hasn't done anything.
-Hey.

Focus on the investigation.
Arguing gets us nowhere.

-I am focusing on it.
-No, you're not.

If you want to prove your claim,

dig the truth out of Susanna
or those who know her.

And you might find out
she isn't that innocent.

We don't decide who's guilty beforehand.

So get out there
and get proof of her guilt.

Get out of here.

I know the video compilation isn't
genuine.

Good.

What I don't know yet is...

why Ronja wanted to make you look bad.

You didn't k*ll Ronja.

No, I didn't.

In that case, speak.

They'll put you in prison for this.

I haven't done anything.

I can't help you otherwise.

Someone wants to hurt you.

Who?

I don't know.

Not everybody can steal
a fetus and place it in someone's home.

The person knew the child was yours.

They knew you and your home.

What they did proves
they're capable of worse things.

Of k*lling Ronja?

You have a hunch.

The burglar.

And you know who that was?

-No, I don't.
-Stop dodging.

Just when you almost said something.

THE CLOCK BEATS EVERYONE
LE SACRIFICE

We were friends.

Who else am I supposed to see?

I can't talk about this to anyone else.

Everything is fine.
They're keeping Susanna in custody.

Everything is fine.

I did exatly what you wanted.

-And Ronja, Ronja did it for us--
- Everything is fine.

-We all did this for all of us.
-Everything is fine.

Didn't we?

Are you coming back to work?

You have to go.

We have to keep a low profile.

What if they start asking questions?

-Who?
-The police.

To the hospital? Just act normal.
Take it easy.

You haven't done anything.

You haven't.

RÉGINE DEFORGES: BLUE BICYCLE

THE CLOCK BEATS EVERYONE
LE SACRIFICE

-What are you doing?
-Working.

Everything good?

Not good. Perhaps too good.

So you're...

what, torturing yourself?

I'm trying to relate.
Trying to force my brain to work.

-Mom said dinner is in fifteen minutes.
-I'm coming.

-Have you seen her today?
-Mom? No.

She's just weird, somehow.

You've known her almost twenty years.

Maybe it's good you've
now reached the conclusion

that she's weird, because she is.

-Was he in the middle of something?
-You don't want to know.

Would you mind?

Hi, Mikkis, it's Janina.

Could you call back in a little while?

Okay, thanks.

PATIENT RECEIVING CHEMOTHERAPY
INSTRUCTIONS

Who was it?

Janina?

Who was it?

Everything is okay, honey.

No it's not!

-Not so loud, please.
-Why haven't you said anything?

You weren't supposed
to hear about this yet.

Dad neither.

This is not how I'd pictured this. I...

I want to do this my way.

-Mom.
-Janina.

I've been trying to figure out how to...

how to tell you and...

what to say, and I just need
a little time, okay?

Everything will be fine.

You can't say that, you can't lie to me.

I'm not lying to you, honey.

You have to tell me everything.

I promise.

Just give me a little time.

And let me tell Kari.

It seems you can solve mysteries
with a bag over your head, too.

THE RITE OF SPRING

I found antidepressants
in Susanna's drug cupboard.

When I interviewed her, she told me
she didn't have mental problems.

She lied.

I don't think so, she just
avoids telling us the whole truth.

The drugs work,
so she doesn't have mental problems.

These drugs are also used
to suppress sexual urges.

If we're to believe the day care
center manager from Kotka,

Susanna had problems
with her feelings toward children.

That's why she keeps away from
the children and won't talk to us.

Trying to restrain herself with drugs
doesn't change what she is.

Niko.

Susanna saved that note.

Based on the contents, I think it's
from the person who is behind all this.

The text refers to
Stravinsky's The Rite of Spring.

Who is it from?

The ballet pops up here and there
in Ronja's flat.

She also used "Rite of Spring"
as her screen name in a chat room.

VICTIMS OF VIOLENCE

"Anyone here who's had to
experience sexual violence?"

Ronja's parents told us about the r*pe.

Screen name "Warrior" answers Ronja.

"Hi. I have those experiences, but I don't
feel like going through them all.

What specifically do you want to know?"

Rite of Spring answers:
"Nightmares? I'm afraid to go to sleep."

Warrior: "Someone hurt me when I was five.

In a day care center.
They were never made to answer for it."

Ronja's boyfriend was Susanna's victim,
too.

When we're able to prove that,

we'll have a link between the past
and what has happened now.

How does this explain the fetus
and Ronja's m*rder?

Let's find Warrior and ask him.

How?

We've already thought about that, too.

Susi and the team have been looking
into Warrior's browser fingerprints.

We'll look into Susanna's
ex-workmates in Kotka.

One of those has known Warrior.

All the things you think you'll miss...

Mementos you don't
even remember you'd kept.

How many boys were there?

Three boys is what I heard.

They...

They gave Kaija the chance to resign
back then.

They wanted to sweep
the whole thing under the carpet.

Why didn't Hannele tell me this?

She was the manager.

Hannele settled the whole thing
with the parents.

And...

I think they drew up a written
agreement, too.

Hannele is keeping her promises.

And...

Her conscience probably keeps
her from telling you everything

that she found out, too.

Here it is.

It was 1992.

The names are on the back.

I thought I'd write them down.
I'd never remember them otherwise.

Do you remember who the three boys were?

No, but Hannele probably would.

A shy and timid boy. Do you remember him?

Heikki Halmesarka.

Heikki might have been
the one with the twin sister.

But I'm not sure.

Hannele will remember.

Yes.

I got this. It won't take long.

I already interviewed her.

I know. I'll only be a minute.

One Heikki Halmesark has moved
from Kotka to Lappeenranta.

-An entrepreneur, a lawyer.
-Sounds right.

-Kari Sorjonen, police.
-Hello.

I was told you've promised to keep quiet.

Yes. To protect the people involved.

Promised the parents?

To save the families from more suffering.

If I point at a boy in the photo,
can you tell me if I'm wrong?

Thanks.

I'll take it.

Mom.

Oh, dear.

You shouldn't have. I got you worried.

You should have got me
worried a while ago already.

I'm taking a break from reading.

Reading?

-For the entrance exam.
-Of course you won't.

I'd rather spend time
with you than my books.

You promised to wait.

How will that change anything?

You'll need help at some point anyway.

I decide for myself.

And postponing things won't help Dad.

What's so wrong with trying to control
this myself?

You can't control it.

I promised the families they
wouldn't be left empty-handed.

Well, let's take it slow.

The location of the
refuge isn't important, after all.

We can find a better place
for it than the hotel complex.

I promised they'd have a new place when
they vacate the old one. And if not...

If it's not in connection
with the Kannas Hotel,

you'll have to deal with it yourself.

We're in the same boat.

I have to leave that boat now.

What's wrong?

What is this about?

-Do you recognize yourself in the picture?
-I've never seen this before.

Not that I recall.

Did your own childhood affect your
decision to start studying law?

Make you want to dispense justice?

Is that what you came here to ask?

Did somebody hit you when
you were a child?

No.

Nobody did.

Did somebody...

Did somebody make you touch their body?

When you were five?

No, why do you even...

Was the one who touched you...

a day care center teacher
called Kaija Hallava?

The woman was a sadist.

A cruel sociopath.

But that was over twenty years ago.

You're not here to ask me about history.
What has Susanna done now?

Susanna?

It was a little over a year ago.

I took my son Onni to visit
Peltola day care center.

They introduced Kaija to us as Susanna.

I naturally checked her
background right away.

We have to take your computer.

To see if you've contacted
Ronja Leppisalmi.

And we have to ask you to
accompany us to the station.

If you please.

What's going on?

This will take a while.
Niko and the tech guys

are checking your computer and phone.

Or you can tell me what you know,
so we'll get out of here sooner.

What do you want me to tell you?

Does the screen name "Warrior"
say anything to you?

No.

Have you ever been in contact with...

with a young woman called
Ronja Leppisalmi?

No.

I haven't.

Have you had intimate relations
with Susanna Lehto as an adult?

I've stayed as far away from her
as I can for my family's sake.

Susanna aka Kaija had three victims.

You were one of them.

Who were the two others?

I don't know.

And even if I did, I couldn't tell you.

So you probably won't mind
if I close my eyes

while we wait for the tech boys.

Warrior hasn't used Halmesarka's laptop

and no contacts between him and
Ronja or Susanna were found in his phone.

But we traced Warrior's IP address to the
central hospital's gynecology department.

I know who Warrior is.

Jalmari Sarvilahti.

Halmesarka's other phone
contained the name Jalmari.

There was a Jalmari Sarvilahti
in the day care group in Kotka.

And there is a Jalmari Sarvilahti
working at the central hospital.

Lena.

Can I have a word with you?

Have you done things behind my back?

-You can't do that.
-You've sidelined me.

No, I haven't.

-Have I?
-Yes, you have.

Ever since you were
forced to get involved in my past affairs.

No I haven't.

Not deliberately.

You keep Niko with you
but won't let me do my job.

If I hadn't acted, would you have
Jalmari Sarvilahti's name?

I'm sorry.

Let's go get Jalmari.

Apartment empty!

Who's calling?

This is Kari Sorjonen,
Lappeenranta police, Serious Crime Unit.

We've been trying to reach you...

He hung up.

I put out an APB on Jalmari Sarvilahti.

Clothes drawers were empty. He's left.

Susanna isn't behind this,
she and Heikki are in custody.

Susanna and Heikki remain on
our suspect list.

It's less than five hours until morning.

Go home.

Heikki Halmesarka.

Heikki might have been the one
with the twin sister.

If the pregnancy has been planned and

the ab*rtion is based on, say, disability,
the parents are allowed to say goodbye.

But the midwife returns after a while
and takes the fetus into the fridge.

-Porters take care of waste incineration?
-We or the nurses.

Who has access to the cold room?

I can get you a list.

The one over there is for
biological waste.

Organs are kept in sealed bags,

frozen fetuses in ''shoe boxes''.

-People perform ab*rtion at home, too.
-Not this one.

This one has been done in a hospital.

They boy looks so tidy.

Taina.

I know it's really late,
but I have an idea how to solve this case.

You had to quit your job in Kotka
because of a deal you made

with Heikki and Hanna Halmesarka's

and Jalmari Sarvilahti's families.

I haven't done anything
to any children in 27 years.

I've done everything right
for the past 27 years.

It's been over twenty years since
the incidents with Jalmari and Heikki.

The statute of limitations protects you.

You have nothing to fear.

You can confess everything.

I've been in therapy for 12 years.

And I take my drugs regularly.

We're trying to catch Ronja's m*rder*r.

That's our task.

And that's why we really want
to find Jalmari Sarvilahti.

I want to confess everything.

-What?
-I want to confess.

I'm guilty of everything.

The child,

the videos and...

And...

Ronja...

I k*lled Ronja.

I don't buy your confession.

It won't fix the past.

We only want to find Jalmari Sarvilahti.

He came to my place and...

He started shouting...

He grabbed a knife from the
kitchen and shouted...

that I was never to go
near children again.

I tried to tell him

that I'm different now.

Different from what I used to be.

He just got more angry,

broke a cupboard door with his fist and...

And...

He...

He tore off my clothes,

threatened me with the knife and...

Jalmari r*ped you?

You didn't report it.

We were even then.

But you became pregnant.

I can't keep you here any longer.

The police know about us.

We should meet

and discuss what to do.

Why did they let you go?

Jalmari...

I'll take the blame.

To be able to do that,
I have to know everything.

It's the only way I can help you.

What if I refuse?

You have to meet me.

Don't tell me what to do, okay?

We can meet in a public place.

The upstairs cafe in the shopping center?

I'm finishing this now.

Finishing what?

-I'm taking care of Susanna.
-Jalmari, wait...

Where are you? At home?

I'm coming there.

I don't live there anymore.

I rented a new flat in Harapainen.

What's the address?

Jalmari?

We're too late.

He's coming back!

The police!

Hands where I can see them!

-Take off your seat belt!
-Seat belt off!

You committed m*rder. You will be charged.

I did what we agreed.

If Susanna dies,

you'll be charged with two murders.

Ronja and...

Heikki and Hanna

would want Susanna to die.

If I can't put her in prison,
why shouldn't she die?

Ronja would have died anyway.

What do you mean?

Ronja's lungs were damaged.

I can't remember the diagnosis,

but her lungs kept scarring.

You wanted to help Ronja to get away.

Help her take her own life.

I don't know what to call it.

If someone is a very good listener,

it's easy to think
the relationship is mutual.

-What are you implying?
-I won't be a minute.

That man has been led by others.

Lena, we met Ronja's parents.

-They had a weird attitude.
-They defended the store owner.

What if Ronja lied?

What if she lied about everything?
HP would have found something, right?

Ronja didn't have any disease.

She only had appointments
with her therapist.

You had a good relationship with Ronja.

But what facts did you
actually know about her?

Hometown, family, friends?

You can know a person without
knowing everything about them.

Ronja didn't have a lung disease.

She had depression
and an unstable personality.

I saw the surgery scars.

The pathologist examined Ronja.

They were cutting scars.

She was self-destructive.

Why do you say these things?

Ronja got what she wanted,
someone to k*ll her.

I'd never have agreed to...

I believe you.

You meant well, like you do now.

Let me help you.

Tell me where Susanna is.

Susanna is in a secure place.

Susanna is in a secure place.

The cadavers are put in these.
Twenty-four doors.

We saw the place in the hospital.

The cold room.

Is Susanna in the cold room?

-I already sent our people there.
-You're too late.

What's the temperature in there?

MAIN ENTRANCE

She's in here!

Get a blanket.

Alright.

Many deaths in the past year,
but this is the first funeral.

Thanks for coming.

I know funerals are sad events,

but we can't claim
Paul was close to any of us,

so let's not completely ruin
the day with grieving, okay?

Dad.

Mom's illness has returned.

I'm sorry Mom, but I had to tell him.
