Part 9: Heartaches
In June 1988

Who is it now?

It seems to be Eeva.

Hello!

Well, how's a municipal doctor doing?

No, I'm not a municipal doctor. They don't exist anymore.
I'm the Responsible Physician.

It's the same. We've used to say a municipal doctor.

How was your first day at work?

It went fine.

How many patients were there?

Also them, but there's so much more to it.

It's mostly just a paper work.

So, mom and dad, do you have anything against,
if I moved to the sauna hut,

now that Heikki doesn't use it anymore.

What do you mean? Why wouldn't you live here with us?

There's not even a phone there,
and it is what it is anyway.

I got a portable device from the municipality,
and also the car into use.

It would be just fine for me.

Besides, it wouldn't bother anyone
if I need to go to a patient in the middle of the night.

Well, I don't have anything against it.

Well, at least you're coming to eat here?
Have you been eating today?

Well, I can get food at work.

Today I went to the restaurant with the Mayor
and the Chairman of the Council.

Oh, well I could warm up since there's that new machine.

Well, you don't have to.
By the way, have you learned how to use it?

Well, for warming up yes, but cooking
works better for me with a stove.

Where is Erkki by the way?

I suppose he's in the outbuilding.

Well, I'm going to visit. Do you need any help?

No, I can handle this.

Oh, hello!

Hello.

Where did you come to?

What are you up to?

Well, same as usual. Fighting with the bookkeeping.

It has to be exactly correct,
so that nobody has nothing to complain.

How have the business things gone with Kari?

Why?

Quite nicely.

It's enough work, and we get some money too.

Ah yeah, take a look.

We got some government benefits.

Wow.

We can start looking into expanding.

We've got three guys working there.

We should get one more.

I just have those management
duties taking all the time.

I don't even have time to substitute.

Then we still have the work at home.

You should get a PC.

What?

A computer. Personal Computer.

You've never heard of a such?

Well of course I have.

They're just so expensive.

Do you think it would be helpful?
- Aha.

What's this?

What?

This? This is from a plot.
Kind of a cross-section.

See this is a mound, that's
being digged off currently.

You've seen it, haven't you?
- Yeah.

It's pure gravel and sand.

I'll sold it to TVL.

I see.

Did you know it when you wanted this plot for yourself?

For you I can tell, that I knew it.

But it wasn't the main purpose.

I see. What was the main purpose then?

You're annoying!

I've told you.

I'm going to build such a giant Urja castle.

I see.

Does Jaana know about your gravel business?

No.

She'll probably be very angry when she finds out.

Well, that's who she is.
You shouldn't worry about it.

She called, by the way.

And told me to go digging there next weekend.

Of course.

And then they've rented a caravan.

For as long as they can
move back to the cottage.

I see. Then we'll be neighbours.

How so?

I'll move to the sauna hut.

You'll move to the sauna hut?

Why don't you live downstairs?

What do you think?

♫A free woman... tadaa tadaa♫

So you're the one pottering around here.
- Yes, me.

I had to come and see who was really here
when the smoke came out of the pipe.

So that's you.

Are you going to move here?

Yes, I thought so.

We just have the caravan a short distance away.

So I thought we could go to the
sauna here with Jaakko sometimes.

But it doesn't work out then,
if you live here.

Couldn't you live at home like before?

No, I also need my own peace.

You can swim here when you feel like it
and move when you want.

You can go to the sauna here like before,
it doesn't bother me.

That's good then.

You haven't seen our new caravan.

Erkki is coming to visit,
so you can come to coffee at the same time.

Yeah. Well I have quite a lot of cleaning to do.

If you help me, we can get there faster.

Okay.

About four or five loads on the road
and then three or four loads on the base.

Then that should be enough and
we can make drainage pipes.

- Yes, the base has to be rougher.
Has to. So that it doesn't get too compact.

Look who I found from the sauna hut.

Hello.

Hello, welcome.

Thank you, thank you.

I already heard from Erkki that you're also staying here.

Yes.

We have small contract negotiations going on here.

We agreed with Erkki that he will come
with the machine to make the foundations.

And then bring a few loads of gravel.

That's good.

Why you build anything here anymore?
It's really nice here as it is.

No, it's not.

You'll see that such a villa will be build here,
that you've never seen.

It's coming over there.

Oh yeah?

It's a package that can be lifted up.

That's it.

But before that, the foundations have to be assembled.

By the way, Erkki, you happen to
know anything about foundation works?

Yes, I know something.

Yeah...

There are a few guys here who could do a nice job for you.

Speaking of those prices...

The sand you can get for free.

But I have to charge you a little
about the machines and the transportation.

Well, it's natural.

Charge?

Are you asking your own sister for a fee?

Well, not me, but a company.

Look, the machines aren't mine, but the companys.

Kari Kaukovaara is such a partner
and businessman that he doesn't accept that

the machines of the company are used for free.

Well of course not.

My own labour, I can of course donate for you.

That's very friendly of you.

But how can you get the gravel for us free?

Well, that's taken from my own pit of course.

Eeva Metsola.

By the way, about the road.

- Yes, by the way.

I just remembered that
we have talked with dad,

that this road here to the lake,
should need to get in good condition.

It's just a big job.

But those costs you can share with
the master who has a hut on the other side.

Well he doesn't pay them.

I bet the master is not very interested.

By the way, you have a handy machine.

Yeah.

I'm sure it costs a lot.

Well, I don't pay for it myself.

Besides, it's a devils invention.
Even now I have to go back to work.

Yes, it's this calling profession.

That when you call and order,
you get what you want.

What are you going to do, by the way?

Well, a couple of calling professionals.

Here is such a calling profession that
looks at a friends intestines on Saturday evening.

How awful.

Need to go to patch up.

Bye bye.
- I'll go with you.

I'll drive you.

Look, I can go with my own car.

Who knows what's still gonna happen today.

Shall we take beers?

Yeah.
Let's do it.

I was afraid that Jaana would start
to ask more about the gravel pit.

The same here.

I had to change the topic quickly.

Well, one shouldn't pick a fight with her.

Oh, you still have the same old cart?

Yes.

You haven't considered getting a new one?

This will do for me.

I'm gonna buy a new one when I ca afford it.

The kind that Risto has.

I see...

I'll come with you to the sauna hut.

Yes.

I can continue with my own
from there then.

Thank you.

I didn't bother to offer it earlier for Erkkis sake.

Well, I quess it's better this way.

That nothing happens.

At least I want to be quilty for
Erkki starting to drink again.

Yeah, he's been doing fine.

He hasn't had any problems.

Supposed to be a tough business man.

How dare he hide behind Kari's back
and charge us based on that?

He has to.

Besides, it just shows that he is a healthy business man.

Why didn't you become Erkkis business partner?

Don't start again.

Listen, what did he mean?

What?

That Erkki is taking gravel from his own sand pit.

I mean, from his own gravel pit?

Yes?

I guess he meant that at least he
doesn't take it from the neighbours gravel pit.

What takes so long?!

Take it easy!
Or we gonna have to use restraints

Eeva! Come help.
There is a worse case here.

Safety pin.

Has he been so tired all the time?

Yes, a little too much.

Alright.
- Here.

Alright, let's have a look at this other hero.

Yes, come on.

I'll get my own.

Nicely done, jerk!

Calm down now.

How about the other one?

He'll stay here for some time.

As far as I'm concerned, you can leave.

How are you going to manage?

We'll manage. Right?
- It might still be best, if we wait here.

Take him to the custody then.

Well, how you want.
Just wait outside then.

We'll go and take a look at your achievements.

I wouldn't hit myself.
It was the damn jerk, that hit.

But he got it too.

You really made a mess.

Well no need to come wave a knife
around for the second time. Saatana.

He was the one who started it?

Yes, he. What can you do,
when the other one attacks?

Luckily I had a knife with me.

It wouldn't been better for
both of you to leave knives home.

Those cops are f*cking greedy.

How so?

They stole my knife right away.

Let's put stitches on the shoulder.

Liisa.

Hello.

Hi.

Did you come to work?

It depends on what you pay.

Need to come here to say hello,
since you're never home.

A lot of work.

What would you say if I went to Leppävaara?

Just go.

But please call before you go.
- Yeah, yeah.

Whats going on now?
Has Stigu left you?

What?

He has work.

You happen to have any cash, by the way?

Metsola.

Hello.

Yeah.

Yes.

Next week?

Yes.

Hey, don't take everythi...

No, daughter just took all the money.

So...

Yes, that works.

All right.

The documents are done.

So thank you.

Well, this way you got to the top too.

Land surveyors to the top and that's it.

Good day, doctor.

- Good day.

Is everything all right?

Or is the village threatened by some...

...rather severe disease?

Well, the worst threat seems to be this
disease of getting stuck by your mouth.

Have to be careful not to catch me.

Our Eeva is such a clever girl.

Goes in the family.

Hopefully she'll just enjoy her stay for a long time.

Is that a personal opinion?

Or is it the Chairman of the Municipal Council speaking?

Both.
- I see.

Bye.

Bye.

Huhuu!

Is there anyone here?

Good day!

Liisa!

Well this was a nice surprise.

Hasn't dad called?

No, he hasn't reached at least.

It's so nice that you came to see us.

Grandpa will be so excited to see you.

Dad has a lot of work to do.

He hasn't been at home much.

I see.

Well I suppose he is doing fine then,
if he has so much work to do.

Listen, how is it going with you and the forester boy nowadays?

I heard that he's such a smart boy.

Grandpa has praised him so much.

You must be doing well then, too.

Clinic

Good day.
- Good day.

I'm looking for Eeva Metsola.

Is she here?

Yes, the doctor is in the house.
Are you coming for an appointment?

Yes, I am.

Then fill in this form. Name and social
security number and other information.

All right.

You'll have to wait though.

The doctor has an emergency case
and I think four patients before you.

It's okay. I can wait.

You can sit there.

Okay.

How many patients remaining?

Five.

What are you doing here?

Good day, doctor.

I have pains. Heartaches.

And I heard there's a medicine
here that will surely work.

And I have patients in a queue.
You need to wait like everyone else.

You're crazy.

No, I have fallen in love.

Penttilä, Niina?

Here.

How many cows do you have?

We have 11 now and then a couple of calves.

Don't you have a horse?

We haven't gotten yet.

We don't need a horse.

But you went to see horses in Tampere?

Well, you can always go to see them,
but feeding them is a different matter.

Well, we would have food for a horse now
that we have one cow less and had a good harvest.

We have a chance, that this year
we'll get three harvests from the silage.

You forget that the new road project will take
almost two hectares of good grassland from us.

Hello.

Hello. Joni came to get some milk.

Let's go.

Hey, what is this?

This?

This is a pitchfork.

This is such a thing as...

In the old days they used to dig drainage ditches,
to get water out of them.

In order to get grassland and fields.

It was drained.

And the ditches were dug with those shovels.

Which are over there.

And then when they were used to remove the peat,

this was used to lift the heavy peat up from the ditch.

Look, such a wet peat is so heavy that
not everyone could lift it with those heavy shovels.

Come see.

There are others here too.

There are tongs and...

There's a cow horn.

And here we have...

Look.

Here we have...

Nail clippers.

Cow hoof clippers.

No way.

Look, a cow has thick nails.

You can't cut them with ordinary nail clippers.

Seriously?
- Yeah.

They are cut with these.

And look at this.

I remember when we got this.

Risto had just finished primary school and he was...

I still have one patient visit.

But you can come along.

We'll talk on the way.

Do you have anything after that?

No.

We'll go us after that.

To you?

Yes.

So what? Are you scared?

But...

What about your father? He's at home right?

Yes.

So what?

But I visited Liisas graduation party...

Yes. Dad knows that you're dating Liisa.

There you poor son have something to explain,
on what you're doing here with me.

I don't have any difficulties.

If your father is quite old so he doesn't really understand.

I lied.

We're not going to us.

We're going to the Kalajärvi.

I have such a summer home there,
in our lake sauna.

You can leave your car here.
We'll go with my car.

But you can drive.

Let's go.

Grandma.

- Yes?

Do you have something for me or can I go swimming?

Go ahead.

Take the bicycle from the corner of the barn.

Yes. Bye bye.

How you suddenly popped up here?

I had to.

What do you mean you had to?

Yes, yes.

Internal must.

What are you talking about?

I'm not talking.

I told you I have a heartache.

So I came to take care of it.

Weren't you supposed to go on a trip with your father?

I did.

But of course I rather came here.

Just wait for me in the car.

It shouldn't take long.

Now we go.

Here's the prescription.

You have to give this twice...

I can't get anywhere from here now.

Not even to the pharmacy,
since we're here just the two of us.

I can't leave Leena here alone,
nor take her with me when she's in this condition.

What about Leena's father?
Couldn't he take care of her meanwhile?

Eino has passed away.
I'm a widow and a single parent nowadays.

I'm sorry, I didn't know.

How can you take care of the groceries?

From a mobile shop [van].

The mobile shop comes twice a week to the junction.

Let's do this. I'll give you a few supplements now.

And tomorrow after work,
I'll go get these medicines myself.

- But, no you can't...
No, it's okay.

Just need to remember to go to the pharmacy.

Here.

Give one this evening, so you can both sleep.

Thank you.

And you try to get well, okay?

So, everything clear?

Yes.

Now let's go to the lake sauna.

Well, there is our summer girl comes.

You haven't been swimming for this long?

No, I was just riding a bit.

Did you see Eeva?

No. Was she coming to swim?

No, she lives at the sauna hut.

But there was a white car there.

Ah, that's the car, Eeva got from the municipality.

Oh, if only I had known.

I almost went inside, but then I thought
if there's a tenant there, I wouldn't bother.

I'll still go and say hi to her...
- No, no, don't go now. It's so late.

Eva has a rough day tomorrow and she has to get up early.

You can go tomorrow.

Okay.

Good morning.

Morning.

I'm going to work.

To work?

Do you remember what that means?

I don't remember.

You still keep sleeping here.

Have a nice day.

Sunbathing, swimming and having a sauna.

What if someone comes here?

Nobody will come here.

This is a peaceful place.

Besides, if someone comes,
just introduce yourself.

Introduce?

Stig.

The little stud of the family.

Good day.

Stop it.

I'm off to work now.

Find some food for yourself from the fridge.

I'll be back after mid-day.

Come back soon.
- Yeah.

Bye bye.
- Bye.

So. The little girl is also awake.

It's about time.

It was good, that I didn't get a horse for us.

Let the girl be. A fresh air makes city girl tired.

In case, you would've taken care of it.

How's so?

Well it would've died for a hunger
many times until this time of day.

If we had a horse, it would've
died a long time ago under your care

In the absence of exercise.

Listen, Liisa.

I have a special task for you that you could do on your swimming trip.

What is it?

See, Eeva has received a mail.

So you could take it to the sauna hut.

Okay. Now?

Shouldn't I help grandma first?

No, you go ahead.

Liisa!

- Yes?

If you see Eeva, tell her to stop by
to eat in the evening. If she has time.

Yes. Bye.

Bye.

There is an interesting announcement here.

Interesting how?

Well, they are selling horses in Ristijärvi at a reasonable price.

Should we go and see?

You're not going to see anything.

At least not the horses.

We don't take a new one [animal]
to our care for nothing.

You have Ferguson and Valmet [tractors].
Take care of them.

What do you do with a horse?

But shouldn't a proper house have a horse?

There's no question about it.

I mean a racing horse.

That could be a good investment.

Listen, when I was in Tampere...

That's out of the question!

Okay.

Stigu!

Hi!

What are you doing here?
How did you know that I'm here?

Has something happened?

No.

What? Were you here before me?

I came already yesterday.

Yesterday?

So you've been here... for a long time.

Yes, I came yesterday. I spent the night here.

Here? Isn't Eeva here?

Eeva is here too.

I mean, I came here yesterday to meet Eeva
and we came here. We spent the night together.

Liisa, I've wanted to talk to you for a long time.

The thing is that...

- You didn't come here to see me, but Eeva, didn't you?

Yes.

How can you do this to me?

Hey, Liisa!

Liisa! Don't go!

Let me go.
- No, I won't.

This is my fault. This isn't Eeva's fault.
- Let me go.

No, I won't. Listen to me now.

Eeva is not quilty for this.

Eeva didn't want to see me because of you,
even though we fell in love.

I thought you loved me.

We should limit the housing support.

In the way that...
we should get more money from the state.

Last year we got too little and
this year costs have increased a lot.

Unless we get money from the state,
we even have to...

We even have to...

We even have to close some department or...

Excuse me for being late.

Yes madam. We were dealing with
housing support issue here.

So that you can get a hang of it...

Excuse me, but I still have a patient appointment.

So if there are things that require my presence,
can they be dealt with right away?

Sure.

Apologies, but we can return to this case a bit later.

It seems to overrun and the doctor is in a hurry.

Yes, but I think this matter is so important, that

everyone should simply be involved
here to decide on this matter.

On this sum that is applied from the state.

And in addition, let's look at the money issues for next year.

Because we all know that...

Have you seen Liisa?

Have not.

Hasn't she came from that swimming trip yet?

Not that I know of.

Takes quite a long for her then.

I wish nothing has happened.

What would have happened to her?

She's not a child anymore.

Yes yes, but things can always happen.
You never know.

She has stuck with her mouth with someone.

Jaana and Jaakko are there too.

Yeah, that might be. But what if you went to Kalajärvi to check anyway?

Well, why not.
If it calms you down.

Liisa doesn't have anything to do here.

Since we don't even have a horse.

She just doesn't enjoy being
at the yard for nothing.

Hey.

Oh, it's you.

Yes, it's me.

Who are you?

Jaana, Liisa's aunt.

Oh, I see.
We met at Liisa's graduation party.

Do you want a ride?

Stig ombord.
[Swedish, means "step on the ship"]

No, not this time.

Thank you.

I'll come again tomorrow.

I'm trying to arrange it so that I could stay for a while.

We could talk.

That would be nice.

It's quite lonely here now
that Eino isn't here anymore.

How long has it been?

Since February.

You really haven't heard about it?

Eino shot himself.

Oh, Eino.

Yes, yes, I have heard about it.

I just couldn't connect it.

Well, what's the situation in your life?

Do you have someone?

No.

Or actually, I do.

Or I don't know.

Life wasn't always that easy with Eino.

He was often unemployed and started to drink.

I thought he would stop when little Leena was born.

But soon it was the same again.

Then when he went to work for your Erkki, I thought that...

Let's see how long it would take
before he starts to drink again.

And it didn't take that long.

But I just wouldn't have believed it would go that way.

It was hard for our Erkki too.

They had hang out in the same groups for ages.

Listen, sorry a lot, but...

I really have to go now.
- Yeah.

But I'll come stop by tomorrow and try
to arrange so that I could stay a bit longer.

You try on hang on.
- Yeah.

Liisa is already at home.

She came as soon as you left.

You did a useless trip.

Well, it wasn't a completely useless trip.

But you got worried for nothing.
I quess there is nothing bothering her.

Well, something is wrong.

How so?

Doors have been slammed here.
She has shut herself behind a locked door.

Well, there was this Liisa's boyfriend also at the sauna hut.

Hello.

Good morning.

Hi.

I'm sorry I'm coming so late.
I really couldn't make it earlier.

Have you been bored here alone?

Well, at least time went by.

How come?

Wasn't this supposed to be a quiet place?

Has someone been here?

Someone?

Let me tell you.
Sit down please.

Look, first there was some well dilling group.

They were asking for some Helsinki master's hut.

Well, I wondered if you had started
growing potatoes in the backyard.

And then your sister Jaana came here.

Uh-huh.

And then your father.

Father?

Mm-hmm.

Here we sat and talked all kinds of things.

And then, just appropriately,
I asked for younger daughters hand.

Like this...

Tell me now.

I told you already.

You still love me, don't you?

Does it matter?

Matter?

I guess it's nice if the future wife loves me.

Well, when you were thinking of marrying me?

Well, the day after tomorrow or next week.

Aha, tomorrow doesn't suit?

Tomorrow? Yes it does...

You must love me quite a lot if you
can't wait for the day after tomorrow.

Seriously talking.

I've said that this won't work as far
as Liisa is somehow involved in this.

By the way, Liisa is no longer involved in this.

What do you mean by no longer?

That Liisa came here first.

At Mid-day.

She brought you mail.

You were here?

Here, here.

Where else would I have been?

Jesus, what a mess.

Well, where is the little girl going?
- Home.

To Tampere?

Well, how the little girl is thinking about travelling?

By a bus.

Oh, well, then there's no problem.

If you're going by evening bus, you won't be
able to continue from Kajaani until tomorrow.

So sleep one more night.

Oh, f*ck.

What?!

Everything pisses me off.
I don't want to stay here.

Well, listen.

If you don't enjoy being here with us...
- That's not what I meant!

Listen, I know what you're going through now.

But it's not the kind of end of the world,
that you have to use the word you just used.

Right?

Well, good.

You're now disappointed on that boy.

But it's not a matter of sadness.

Think about, If you had known him longer...

And then he would have done to you what he did...

Then there could have been some reason for a loss.

There are a lot of boys in the world.

Don't start crying now.

This will work out.

And listen.

He would have been an old man for you.

He's almost as old as our Eeva.

If not older.

Listen.

What if you stopped that dawdling and went to Ristijärvi to see the horses that were reported in the newspaper?

Listen, that's what we'll do.

I'm not going anywhere.

You have to go now.

Listen, I don't understand enough of them.

And they can fool such an old man.
