[bunniefuu]

Hei girls! -P?iv??, p?iv??.

I brought you some cash.
-That's nice.

Should pay instalments and interests.
-We don't mind getting money.

Boss already told that you were coming.

You can go and talk with him right away.

See, Erkki. Terve. -Hi.

How is it going? Any worries?
-It's going alright.

What worries?
-I was just thinking.

Terve. -Terve.

You had business. -Juu, it is
about guaranteening your loan.

You need new guaranteer,
as you grandmother died.

I have been thinking about it.
-Do you know someone?

No, I have been busy.

Would your mom guarantee your loan?
-I can ask.

Week after on Saturday
there is estate inventory.

After that I can arrange the guarantee.

Yes, perhaps one of
your siblings might help.

I'll be there too.

Your brother-in-law invited me
to be trustee. -Ok.

On Saturday? -Joo.
-At? -Clock 13 (1pm)

That's alright.

Where have you been? -Shopping.
-This long?

I have been waiting all afternoon.

Car remained there. -Where? -Marketplace.
-Did you have collission. -No.

Gas ran out? -No.
-Keys in and doors locked? -No.

What then? -I couldn't get it started.
It's broken.

That car has no faults.
You don't know how to use it.

Ok, I will get a car. Right after we
have eaten. -Cannot eat. -Why not?

I left the shoppings on the backseat.
-That's the highlight of this delight.

Alright, I'll go and get it.
Where is it? -At the marketplace.

Your mom called? -Why is she calling
you always? -She had business with me.

When have you called your mom last time
and asked how is she doing?

What was mom's businss?
-Asked about the estate inventory.

It will be held in Lepp?vaara
two weeks from now.

Oh, and there was one other thing.
-Well?

We need to leave this apartment.
-How come?

The transfer to Tampere was ensured today.

Erkki, here are books you ordered.
-Thanks.

Erkki! -Hei...
-We haven't met in awhile.

What are you reading? -Just books.

I have been busy.

I wouldn't have ever believed,
that I would find you here.

Where you have you tried to find me?
-Nowhere, actively.

I was thinking, as I haven't seen you.

Have you got married?

Do you have significant other?
-No.

Cannot get good one, and
don't care to bother with mediocre.

I need to go. Kind of hurry.
Take care.

Hei vaan.

Raija! Raija!

Am I bothering? -Of course not.

I'm just trying to get
one program together.

You should come to Lepp?vaara.
-I don't go.

It's not that I don't care about your
parents or siblings.

I just don't want to be in a place where
people argue about pennies. -Alright.

I go now. Eeva waits already.

Tell regards to dad and mom.
Jaakko and Jaana are going too? -Joo.

I called Jaakko today.
They are moving to Tampere.

Jaakko will become manager of the
new office in the Koskikeskus mall.

You are pulling Jaakko in your business messes
as well. -I am not pulling anyone anywhere.

In the future it is perhaps good to
talk with Jaakko, he is lawyer.

It's not about business things this time.
-Oh no? -No. Bye.

Hei hei!

Raija Metsola.
Moi.

You managed to tempt me.
I will go to Helsinki with you.

Jaakko, I will take couple clean
shirts for you too. -Joo.

How is the legacy divided?
How much grandchildren receive?

Law defines how legacies are divided.

Testament affects, but it won't
change the law. -What does the law say?

Annikki inherits half after his dad.

Now Annikki inherits half
after his mother.

Grandma might have testamented
remaining quarter -

to whoever, for example the church.

Do you think that grandma has done it?

Testmented for church? -No,
I mean did she do testament at all.

I asked in the summer, did grandma
have testament. She denied.

Did you ask has grandma left anything
for little Jaana? -No.

I just told that grandma should do it.

Grandma answered, that what does
an old person do with it.

That's what she said?

How much is quarter from total -

if it is divided between five siblings?

From 100% quarter is 25%.

One-fifth of 25% is 5%.

For the rest grandma
might have done whatever.

Damnit, I don't understand this.
-What you don't understand?

That there is something wrong with the car? I told
you when it didn't start at marketplace before.

There is nothing wrong with the car.
You just didn't know how to start it.

Why is the car not starting when you try?
-It does.

(The car starts running.)

I told you it starts when I do it.

You really didn't know how to start.

How is it going? Do you have doctor's
diploma in the pocket already?

Wish I did. I missed one exam
due to night duties.

Graduation has to postponed for 6 months.

Do you have enough money? -Guess.

I have taken maximum amount of loan.
Can't get more.

I don't know that what money to live with.

I have a bit the same deal.
We are going to buy the firm.

I had to pawn everything I own.

But still missing 100,000 marks.
It's on me.

Where are going to get so much money?
-From bank.

Nice heritage would come in handy.
-Even a small one would help.

Mom will inherit everything, isn't it?
-Joo.

I don't believe that grandma had much.
-Of course not.

Now should fill up.
Do you have money?

Little sister!

You have a nice car. Like sitting
in the first class of airplane.

I don't know.

Why didn't Liisa come along?
-She has fell in love.

Who's the lucky one?
-Some Stig, Finnish-Swede.

Lasse's army buddy.

Liisa gets free prepping
for examinations. -She does.

Shall we stop for coffee?
-Sure.

Oh no! Again!

What now? Hoses are failing?
-A little bit.

I replaced all of the bottomest hoses.

The hose on the top looked so good
that I thought to keep it.

Should never trust in old machine.

You have had worries with the machine.
Are you able to continue?

Not today. Have to go and get new hose.
Have to wait until Monday.

Cannot you really make it tomorrow?
Should get this ready.

I have grandma's estate inventory
tomorrow.

But if I come on Sunday, is that ok?
-Joo.

Help a bit, it's really stuck.

Terve! I've been waiting a lot!

I came from Helsinki.
The Tampere highway was crowded.

It's nice that you are here.
Can you stay long?

I need to visit home during holiday.

I have no schedule.
-Then you can stay overnight.

Your parents are not home?
-No.

Dad went to his parents -

and mom is whoring with her lover.

Why you say so?
-I know what mom is doing.

So what shall we do tonight?

First we could eat and then
we could go to bed.

What if someone comes home by surprise?

I am 20-years old young woman.

I have my own room, where I may do,
what I please.

Today I think I fancy to
do that with you.

Still something to ask? -No. I guess.

Would you like a drink before we move
to table? -Yes, thank you.

How is Lasse doing?
-Lasse is with the UN-troops.

Let's not talk about Lasse now. Skool.
-Skål.

Good day and welcome! I have been
waiting for you already.

You were supposed to come
in the afternoon already.

-Yes, but Jaakko's car has such illness -

that it stops in awhile
to rest like an old jade.

-Erkki fixes it in awhile.
Let's go in.

Hei all! We came!

Dad, how are you doing?
-Well, rather well.

Have you found the original testament?

-Do you want to look at it now?
-No, I have a copy.

-Mom, where is Erkki?
-In the shed brushing his car.

Why don't go and ask him here.

I think I will go and freshen up
after the trip.

Jaakko, would you get my suitcase
from the car? -Joo.

Hey, father-in-law. -Terve! Welcome.
-Thank you, thank you.

How is state of health? -What's that?
The state of health is very good.

Terve!
-Terve. The youngest has come too.

Have everyone else come too?
-Joo, I came with Risto.

How is it going here.
-Well, day by day.

How are you?
Are you a doctor already?

If I even become physician first.

How is it with the excavator?
-Old is always old.

Hydraulics acts irregularly. Need to
adjust the nuts all the time.

Otherwise it's going alright.

How has dad reacted to your business?
-Rather favorably.

Dad even bought me drainpipe tractor shovel.
-Really. As a gift? -Joo.

I assume though that dad's ulterior motive was
that I will dig the drainpipe's for free.

Should you stop soon and go and get washed.
You are being awaited inside.

Family meeting awaits.

I will come soon.
-I'll go already. Follow me.

You knew that grandma had a testament.
You had a copy of it.

Why didn't you tell me anything?
It was important piece of info for me.

Important in what way?

Today we were discussing
inheritance possibilities -

and you acted like you knew nothing.
-Now you should shut up.

Why have you began to lie to me? -In what
way the information was important to you?

Have you ever heard of
professional discretion?

It concerns wives as well.
-You don't trust me. -Nope.

Testament is client's and attorney's
collective, secret document.

If client wants that it's not talked
about, then it's not talked about.

I have drafted grandma's
testament years ago -

and I didn't abandon my professional
discretion when I married you.

Lawyers need to sometimes
keep their mouth shut.

That would be damn good skill
for you to learn as well!

You should meet my aunt, Eeva.
She becomes a doctor.

She is ten years older than me,
but still she is nice.

Is Erkki Metsola your relative?
-He is my dad's brother. Then what?

We always watched
skiing competitions from TV.

Erkki used to be tough
skier in the beginning of 80's.

Erkki never succeeded perfectly.

Dad always said Erkki
is eternal third.

Erkki has brilliant collection
of awards.

I'll take you to Lepp?vaara one day,
so you'll see. -Where is Lepp?vaara?

One hundred kilometres
north from Kajaani.

That's almost in Lapland.
-Lapland? Not really.

Have you never been in Kainuu?
-I'm from Pargas (in Swedish).

From Parainen.

You are Finland.
Your head is Lapland.

Big toe is Hangonniemi.
You lost the left leg in the w*r.

Kainuu is here.

Where is Tampere?
-Tampere? -Niin.

Tampere is somewhere...

Listen, there is N?sinneula.

You are so wrong.
-How come?

Always there is talk about Finland-maid.

Suomi-neito is this way.

Let's see, if Pargas-boy
knows anything of geography.

Head is Lapland.

Mouth is deep Inari.

And here are "dangers", dangers like Lepp?vaara.
["vaara"-word has double-meaning=hill+danger]

When you continue towards south,
Tampere will come.

Sauna is ready soon. Do you want some beer?
-No thanks, I need to drive a car still.

What? You told that you stay overnight.

I have to go and stop by home as well.
-You promised to stay. Why don't you?

I didn't promise.
You just wanted, that I would stay.

You don't want to stay?
-Sure I would like to. -Then stay!

Hei... This is Stig.
He is Lasse's friend.

This is my mom.
We have sauna heating up.

We thought to grill some sausage.
-That's great.

Go and grab me a towel, if
it's alright for Lasse's friend.

JAAKKO:
Ok we could gradually begin.

Everyone involved have got invitation
and are present -

except Heikki Metsola, -

who has given authorization
to his father Antti Metsola.

Have you tried to find information
about Risto-Matti? -Joo, I have.

The deceased had a son,
Risto-Matti, born in 1921.

He disappeared during the
Continuation w*r in 1942.

He has been pronounced dead
by the state.

This matter is fully in order.

The deceased had a testament,
which I have drafted in November, 1981.

According to testament Annikki inherits
everything, except a quarter -

which will be divided
between Annikki's children.

Everyone of Annikki's children will
get 5 % of the farm of Lepp?vaara.

In addition the testament states -

that the remaining funds shall be
divided equally between children.

How big amount are we talking about?

The bank manager knows better about that.

Maria Lepp?vaara's bank accounts -

including interests
hold about 57763,78 marks.

How come grandma had so much in savings?

The savings on the bank accounts
of the deceased are national pensions -

and a small w*r widow pension.

Maria Lepp?vaara saved w*r widow
pension in case of rainy days.

Hence all grandchildren Risto, Erkki,
Heikki, Jaana, and Eeva -

will each receive about 10000 marks.

The deceased has made small adjustments
to the testament with a pencil.

The adjustments are rather specifications.
-Are they legitimate?

Yes, as long as everyone present approve them.

There is no reason to suspect, that
the deceased didn't do it herself.

So they need to be approved.
-So what is said there?

With a pencil it's written -

that Annikki's children must be given
land of at least 2 hectares -

of the farm of Lepp?vaara on the shore of
Kalaj?rvi for the purpose of summer cottage.

In addition it's been specified,
that Lepp?vaara farm should not be divided.

The farm must be retained as a whole.

What has grandma meant?

Is this 2 hectares of land part of
this 5% share -

that was ruled in the original
testament to us?

No. Grandma has meant, that we would
also get the lakeside sites.

Grandma didn't mean it so.
The sites belong to the 5%.

JAAKKO: I agree.

-So do I.
It is just a precision.

I thought to go and ski
a little bit before sauna.

Are you alright without me?
-Sure. Go ahead.

Where did Erkki go again? -Business.

I have always had a feeling,
that Risto-Matti is still alive.

Many years after the w*r I thought,
that one day he will come back.

Now I don't know anymore...

The feeling was so strong -

that I have not been able to accept
the declaration.

The state handled that as they did
arrange the plate on the soldier's grave.

-But as there is nobody under the plate.

Mom, you have never told us,
how uncle really disappeared.

It was in the spring 1942 in
the East-Karjala, somewhere in Syv?ri.

Risto-Matti was in the long-distance
patrol behind enemy's lines.

They went astray from each other.

Everybody else came back,
except Risto-Matti did not.

The leader of the patrol team
was the lecturer of neighbor village.

He told, that they had a meeting point
on the shore of the lake.

Our pilots went there with...
What is it, Antti?

Reconnaissance plane.

The pilots were waiting
a signal from the ground.

So they could have saved everyone.
-The pilots got a medal.

But ehen they attempted to land
on the lake, the sh**ting began.

The pilots had to retreat.

Greetings from sauna! -Now is
girls' shift. -I will skip.

The hair goes terrible. -You should go once
and for all, you know how to deal with it.

How about dad and mom?
-We go later.

Dad's heart can take hard steam.
-Mom's opinion. -And mine.

You should come.
It's boring to go alone.

Let's melt hair washing water
from snow for you.

There is no better than that.
-Well, let's go then.

Does someone want beer?
-I have a bottle of cognac here.

I don't take.
I go and see your car.

I don't mind some cognac.

Cognac is good medicine for heart.
-It is, it is. -Only little for Antti.

Been such beggars,
and now even cognac satisfies.

During the w*r we used to confiscate
a box of cognac from Germans.

If it was German, it wasn't real cognac.
It was brandy.

I see?
Whatever it was, drunk we got.

Now let's take.. -Juu.

Hennesy?.

Is the car allegedly fine?
-Yes, but fuel pump is broken.

Jaakko could buy us a new car.

I want the same kind as Risto has.

ERKKI: It'll be cheaper,
if you just buy a new pump.

It is old person's imagination.

Nothing to with the reality.

It is grandma's wish and we have to respect that.
It's good, that the farm won't be divided.

This sort of farm isn't sustainable today.

In the old days it was different.
-At least we could try.

It is easy to say, but who will take care
of the farm, when dad and mom can't anymore?

You, who as an only has got
an opportunity to study properly?

Not me, but Erkki.

How Erkki is going to buy our share?
-There is no need to divide it.

Erkki would take care of the farm.

Do you mean that we would establish
Lepp?vaara Oy, -

where Erkki would act as a CEO?

Sibling-share-loans actually exist.
And mom still owns the farm.

Even though dad and mom are not
in the greatest condition anymore.

What do you have there? -Nothing.

Let it be.
-You need to get that diagnosed.

Have you ever been to mammography?
-No.

You think this is serious?
-Never know.

It can be inflamed gland
or cancer.

You go to mammography already on Monday.

Can I go to sauna after all?
-Go on in. After you, madam.

ANNIKKI:
The girls came. Was the steam good?

Nothing beats home sauna.

Jaana is so fresh too. -Seldom see
you with such clean face.

Normally your face has
tons of decay-protection.

Come on, Erkki.
Everybody may make-up if they want to.

Jaana,
I didn't mean to irritate.

Greetings from Heikki. -Is he coming here?
-No, he has work conflicts.

I already told to Heikki
about grandma's testament.

We discussed about the lakeside sites.

Could we divide the lot soon,
and how about throwing a dice?

I don't see anything to prevent that.

I have no hurry, but Heikki would like to
have own cottage here next summer already.

Sauna cottage gets too crowded,
as Heikki's children are getting older.

I don't want a lot from Kalaj?rvi.
-Why not?

In grandma's testament it is said...
-I know.

I am not interested in fishing,
swimming or cottage life.

If I buy a cottage one day,
I'll buy it from Spain.

You don't need to take part in the sharing.

I'm ready to buy your lot.
-Always ready as a scout.

You cannot remain outside the share.
You'll wreck the whole system.

Grandma wanted that everyone get
a small share. You cannot refuse.

Alright.
I will take a lot from top of Urja.

Don't take it in that way.
-For real.

What would you do with such lot?

I would build my own cottage there,
Urja castle, and admire the sceneries.

You are a nut! If Erkki wants a lot
from the Urja, let's give it.

If Erkki wants a lot from Urja,
it has to be bigger than others'.

Why so? -The price of land at Urja
is cheaper than lakeshore.

Cannot be big difference.
-Mom and Jaakko are right.

Erkki's lot has to be bigger in
the surface area than others.

So are you really sure you want a lot
from Urja? There is no road even. -I do.

You want a lot from middle of forest?
Is there any sense? -Let's give it.

Erkki's lot can be like a quarter bigger.

How much is that Jaakko?
-Half hectare.

We will redeem the extra lot on the Kalaj?rvi.
-No we don't.

If Erkki doesn't want a lot from lakeside,
then the lot stays in Lepp?vaara.

You have a weird way to calculate.

Why so? -Jaana is calculative type.
-Now you counted wrong.

-Don't argue, kids!
-I'm not arguing, just joking.

-Bizarre sense of joking.
-Be quiet now.

If we think really carefully,
the thing is like this:

A lot of two hectares on the shore
of the lake costs 10 marks per squaremeter.

Then the entire lot's price is...
Well, how much it makes?

200 000 marks. -Juu, it makes about
200 000 marks.

That lot is cheap. -It is, it is. -I don't
think so. Suddenly land is so expensive.

If we offered it to someone from Helsinki,
you could add extra 5 to the sqm-price.

Romppanen sold last summer -

a lot from shore of the lake
for one person from Helsinki.

Romppanen got 100 000 marks
for a lot of half hectare.

But this is not being offered to Helsinki-person.

That's why it is cheap. -And not for
someone from Sotkamo either. -Quiet now.

A lakeside lot of two hectars
costs 10 marks per square meter.

On the hills of Urja the land
costs 2000 marks per hectare.

That makes square meter price of 20 pennies.

Maybe so.

Some logging has been done at Urja
in recent years.

The price of forest is about 1000 marks.

Hence we shall give Erkki -

15 hectares of land from Urjanrinne.

What do you think, Annikki?
-It would be just right.

What's up Erkki? -What me?

15 hectares!
Does it really make so much?

If we are precise,
it makes 16 hectares.

Cannot afford that. That's quite a
portion of Lepp?vaara.

Even the 15 hectares is enough for me.
-It's too much.

Think what dad said.
You cannot go to Urja with tractor even.

What has that to do with this?

Let's agree, if Erkki agrees.
-Let's agree.

Why have meetings,
when Erkki gets everything!

Dad, let's go to sauna.
The steam is running out.

Been talking quite a bit...

I have spoken more today than
earlier this whole year.

You spoke correctly.

It would be so funny to see how
things will turn out here in future...

I doubt I am going to see it.
It's beginning to be homestretch for me.

Don't dare. -65 fills up this year.

National pension starts to drop on the account.

You would have got veteran pension
already earlier.

Metsola's Antti won't start to apply
for something -

that should come without requesting.

Why didn't you go and
get frontline medal even?

-When we left Karjala back then,
it was not requested either.

Why did you take Erkki's side?

Have to be fair.

Is it fair that one gets more than others?

It makes me repel,
when everyone acts so unselfish.

Jaana, your lots are much more
valuable than Erkki's.

Unless one finds oil or gold up there.

It's getting enough for me.

Apart from that, start to feel like a crook.

Erkki must have some sort of
plan behind this. -I'm sure he has...

He is crazy otherwise. He said
to build "castle" there...

What might that be?
-Probably Erkki's goldmine.

(Knock.)

EEVA: You weren't sleeping yet?
-No.

What is my brother working on.

Interesting looking book.

Risk Management of Enterprise's
Accident Insurances. Really interesting.

Have to deepen my knowledge.

Where have you got dictaphone?
-One of the awards.

With that I cram these texts.

Remburssi(letter of credit) is bank's written...

Would have been so much easier
in young days, hard to catch now.

I don't regret sport things though.

Made lots of friends and had chance to
travel around the world just like that.

Now is the payday.

Are you in debt? -Silly, I meant...
-I got it what you mean.

Tell me one thing. -What?

Why did you want a lot from Urja?
-No special reason.

Come on! You can tell me.

Do you recall when we used to hike
all the way up there? -To Urja?

That's when I told you, that
there should be castle built here.

I wonder are those wise person's thoughts?
-Wise person's?

We will see one day.
