Our attic project...
There are some problems.

Take it all down.

I may never get
my money back.

You have eight weeks
to return my money.

How are your kids?
- Just fine.

It's time to talk.
- I told you everything.

Why did you pull
a gun at the party?

It was a joke.

What would you say
about couples therapy?

EASY LIVING

Episode 7

Jaana Mikkonen.

I have an MBA.

I've taken care of my kids
for the past few years.

There's never enough time -

but somehow you survive.

This morning I took care of
Tapio's company accounts -

and billing.

"A Breakthrough"

In the afternoon I talked
to my financial advisor -

about future market trends.

Then I read studies about
disenfranchised families.

Then I met the managers of
Save Children and Plan.

In the evening I chaired
a PTA meeting.

We had many items
on the agenda.

On top of all that -

I managed to get
dinner on the table.

I do my best for the family.

This was a typical day.

Any day, from the morning?
- Whatever you prefer.

I usually plan for the next day
in the evening.

Like two days ago when
we looked at the accounts.

Our debt is only four million.

We need cash.
It was all we had.

Eki will fix something.
- St. Petersburg was it.

What are you trying to say?

Okay, you blew it but you'll
come up with something else.

It's easier to get sleep when
tomorrow is all mapped out.

This morning I met my
sales agent at his office.

I already tipped you off
about the Russian cousin.

I told you,
they won't sell to me.

What can I do about it?

I'll take anything.

Then I negotiated with
a key retail representative -

about a big wholesale deal.

This is last year's model.
And I'm not buying anything.

The police are after me.
- Eki said you ordered these.

What will I do with them?
- That's your problem.

Around noon
I visited my mother -

just to make sure
she was alright.

I already have a digibox.
- This is a recording one.

It won't change
the programs.

And I'm too tired to watch.

Should I call a doctor?
- Because you're tired?

This is different. I'm nauseous
and I have a headache.

It's just a virus. Look...

If you want to record,
press "menu" -

and select the program...

Was she?
- What?

You visited your mother.
Was she alright?

Yes, she was fine.

How did your day continue?
- Just fine.

Then I had lunch,
went to the bank -

and ran some errands.

Timppa!

In the afternoon I had
some tough sales meetings -

regarding the items
I got in the morning.

Is that really all you have?
- I think so.

Is this all?
- Yes.

I came home around 10 pm.

An entrepreneur's days
are long -

but it's the only way
to feed the family.

I bought a home theater.
What did you want?

Nothing....

Close the door
on your way out.

You sound okay and busy.

When do you have time
to be together?

Yesterday was busy.
- You said it was typical.

We're often busy, but
we're often together too.

When was the last time
you had sex?

Let's lower the bar a little.
When did you propose sex?

Or even want it?

With each other?

Is that relevant?
- Don't you think so?

What does Jaana think?

This is not just about what
happens under the blanket.

What else? Judging by
what I've heard, you're fine.

Individually. But you
came here together.

Why did you come here?

Did they say
what kind of tumor?

Has it spread
or can she have surgery?

I don't know, I just heard.
She needs more tests.

Did she sound hopeful?

Mom? - The doctor!

She said her thing
and left.

How did she say it?
- Nobody knows yet.

You and Timppa should
come here together.

Sure. - Listen.

I'm hoping for the best,
but like you said -

nobody knows yet
and if things go bad -

you don't know
how long she has.

She has been worried about you
and Timppa for years.

She was so happy about
this renovation project.

She didn't hear how it ended.
- Don't tell her.

You were always like that.

Always fighting about
something stupid.

Can't you think about
anyone else for a change?

I'm thinking about my family.

You have a thriving business
and you're rolling in money.

Look at mother. She's had
some real problems.

What problems could
you possibly have?

Thank you.

Maire told me she'd like to
be chairman again.

What did you say?
- I was honest.

I think you've done
an excellent job.

We're doing something that
counts, helping families.

It will be noticed.

Bake sales will never get us
to official receptions. - Right.

Although that's not why
we're doing this. - No.

I was just wondering
how to sell Maire the idea -

so that she would
develop an interest in it.

Is her comeback okay?

There's so much to do now.
Is she up to it?

We must help her.
Maire would never admit -

how important
the association is to her.

It wouldn't be
a great loss to you.

You have so much else
in your life.

Right.

Did you notice that Jari
bought a home theater?

Where does he get money?
- He plays poker.

Jari? I played with him once.
He sucks at card games.

That's what he told me.
Net poker.

This doesn't add up.

Why? He's successful
at something for once.

I know my son.
- And I don't?

Ask him! - I'm just wondering
where he gets money.

Can't you take it that he's
successful when you're not?

Why don't you
just get a divorce?

That's a good question.

Jaana gets angry if she
wants to avoid an issue.

I just happened
to disagree.

You said I envy my son.
- Do you?

Of course not. I'm glad
if he's good at net poker -

although I don't
condone gambling.

Why would I envy Jari
if he makes pocket money?

I support the family.
- You do compare earnings.

I'm saying
he's no threat to me.

Because it's just pocket money.
- Because he's my son.

You used the word "threat".
Where did that come from?

This is going all wrong...
- I find this very interesting.

This is not why we came here.
- Why did you come here?

To get help for Jaana.
She's the one with problems.

Do you often feel that others
cause all your problems?

What I said about Jaana
is true. - I believe that.

But healthy individuals
may react to a sick unit.

What?
- That's so true.

I've read about it.
I'm reacting.

Our time's up,
but Tapio...

If you want to save
your relationship -

you have to dig deeper,
do some soul searching.

Jari Mikkonen?
- Yes?

Lari Tuomela, hi.
Your sister called me.

Probably by accident.
She was using your phone.

So? - The one we gave you
before the gig in April.

If you get up now
I'll shoot you in the knee.

You give parties, buy cars.
How's the flat-screen TV?

You seem to have
a lot of money.

Did it fall into your lap
or did Santa bring it?

Can we... - No. Bring me
the money, with interest.

I'll call you.

Hi, Liisa.

That's great.

The day after tomorrow?
Yeah, I think I can make it.

Yeah, fine. Bye.

This is what it will be like.

One day
when you come home -

there'll be a strange man
in your bed.

I'm not a stranger anymore.
I was just demonstrating -

what happens when
you neglect your spouse.

How does this
make you feel?

What's wrong?
- Tuomela.

I don't know any Tuomela.

Okay. The guy we did this
thing with in the spring...

The music demo.
- Yes.

I don't mean my band.
- Thanks, I get it.

He knows who I am.
- I didn't tell him.

It doesn't matter how.
He wants me to return all -

music sheets.
- Return?

I don't have them.
He doesn't believe that.

What can I do? He's nuts.

Jari, why come to me?

You know him.

First of all, what can I do
from here?

Second,
even if I were free -

I'm just an honest
Finnish businessman.

I know nothing
about bands.

Be careful.

Tapio won't come here again.
The housecall was too much.

What should I do? I can't
do couples therapy alone.

Let's not cling to terms
if you benefit from this.

If the point is
to solve problems -

wouldn't it be good
to have the problem here?

Don't you find it odd
that you blame Tapio -

and he blames everyone
else for his problems?

That's what you said!
- You're doing the same.

It's not the same.
- Why not?

Because I'm right and
he's wrong. - Is that so?

He doesn't appreciate
anything I do.

Okay, I don't get paid
for what I do -

but it doesn't make it
any less valuable.

I meet important people,
even city managers.

He gives me money, but
everything else is too much.

He's busy, there's work.
Always an excuse.

Even for not coming here.
"Mother has cancer."

Excuse me?
- His mother has cancer.

They're planning a party
for her homecoming.

And of course it has to be
right now. Granted, it's sad.

I hope she beats it and
I'll go there when I can -

but she's not dying
this very second.

Why does he
have to be there?

He's not a real doctor,
but he understands women.

Liisa loved him.
- I suggested him to Jaana.

Is the barbecue hot?
- Not just yet, honey.

Hurry up, mom and
Timppa are soon here.

I told you I don't
want to see Timppa.

What was I supposed to say?
- That I don't want to see him.

To mother! I don't care
if you fight on your own -

but mom was just
released from hospital -

and you'll say hi to her
and to your brother.

With a goddam smile.

Mom! Welcome home!

Hi. Was there much traffic?
- Not much.

What's this? - Did you
inspect my room again?

I changed your sheets
and found this.

Who are you going to
kill with this?

Where did you get it?
- Relax, it's just a toy.

You can't shoot with it.

Aren't you a bit too old
for toy guns?

Would a real one be better?
- What do you need it for?

I don't know. Nothing.
It's not mine.

Whose is it?
- I found it in the attic.

I don't know. Maybe dad's.

Five minutes.

If mom died now,
we'd probably sell the house.

I hope for the best and hate
to think of anything else but...

It's good to be realistic.

Have you paid the mortgage?

Why do you ask?
- We inherit the house.

I can't afford to buy you out.
- Why bring it up now?

So you still have debts.
How much? - A little.

The new law eliminates
all recession era debts.

Not automatically.
- Yes! Call and ask them.

I've been humiliated
in too many offices.

But if there's more... - Let's
not go ahead of things.

Don't bring it up here.

Is it true?
- What?

Could your debts
be eliminated?

I didn't even try to pay it.

I've done many shady
things in the past 15 years.

Right.

But if it's true,
I could make a fresh start.

Why? We're fine.

Yeah...

I need more cash.
I'm going shopping tomorrow.

Remind me in the morning.

Why is this here?
- What?

The gun. - I found it
under Jari's pillow today.

What? - It's scary
how good they are.

I was shook up before
Jari said it's a copy.

He found it in the attic.
Where did you get it?

I can't remember.

You're not dumb.
You know this is not a toy.

I didn't want mom to worry.

Goddammit, Jari.
What should I do with you?

What were you going to do
with this? - What were you?

It's Eki's. I forgot I had it.

This is not a game.
- I know.

You're big enough
to talk man to man.

Please don't think it's great
what I do for a living.

Why do you do it then?
- Because we have to eat.

I try to support my family.

I think it's great.

Don't... Don't make
the same mistakes I did.

You seem absent-minded.
Has something happened?

Why didn't he tell me?
Or wasn't I listening?

Whose fault is it
when there is no trust?

What do you think?

Our financial situation is
not as good as Tapio said.

We have an old debt.
- Is it a big one?

So big that we learnt
to live with it.

For fifteen years.
- And how much longer?

It's really Tapio's debt.

If you divorced him,
you'd get rid of the debt too.

Is that your advice?
- I was just stating a fact.

We vowed to cope with it
together and have done so.

Because you
trusted each other.

Then suddenly you realize
that all the efforts...

Do they lead to anything?

I haven't asked him.

Perhaps he just found
a new stash.

What would you do
if you had no debts?

The debt is not the issue.
- What would you do?

The same as before.
- Are you sure?

I'm busy with meetings.
I meet important people.

You struggle to make people
see how important you are.

Or that nobody would see
how little you value yourself.

What? - Jaana... You can't
live in a waiting room.

You've waited 15 years
and you're about to wake up.

Don't hide from it.

You're not happy.

You have to do something
about it and soon.

Or you will go crazy.

What should I do?

You've had 15 years to figure
out what you really want.

And you still don't know.

But change starts from
understanding the problem -

and I think today was
a minor breakthrough.

I guess so.

Liisa asked who will
visit mom tomorrow.

When's your
next therapy session?

I fired him.

He was an idiot.

Jari Mikkonen. - You haven't
called. Where's my money?

It's not that easy. - I'm sure
you value your health.

You have till tomorrow.
- I'll get it.

Should you go to the hospital
if you're so sick?

Calm down,
I'll be there in an hour. Bye.

Mom needs juice.
- Can't she go to the store?

She hates being alone.

Are you gonna rush there
every time she calls?

What else?
Of course I'll go.

How about work?
- Let's see how this pans out.

I'll work out a system
with Liisa.

You're getting company.

Good morning.
- Hello.

Pia said you've recovered
quickly from the operation.

We haven't talked since.
- It's been only six months.

Yeah, but you look good.
Would you like coffee?

Did Pia tell you I want back
to the association? - Yes.

As chairman.

We've had some
big changes. - I heard.

It will be gruesome
to undo all that -

but I just didn't want it
to come as a surprise.

Have some coffee.

You're more than welcome
to be chairman again.

What's going on?

Do you think
there's another scam?

Ask the others. Finances are
okay, we're more powerful.

Even the city managers
listen to us.

You don't believe I will
step down without a fight.

It would not be
the Jaana I know.

I like the new me better.

Excuse me?
- I've been through a lot.

A week ago my reaction
would've been different -

but I realize now that...

I must find a totally
new direction in life.

Have you found faith?

That's not the direction
I meant.

Yeah...

I'd better get going.

Where will you walk?
- Where mother wants.

One more thing... - Forget it
unless you have my money.

I've heard your explanations.

I know what Liisa talked
to you about the estate.

It's no big deal to me,
but Liisa needs to know.

What did you say to her?
- Nothing much.

Does she know about your
debts? - What's it to you?

I know you haven't
taken care of it.

Liisa just wants to keep
this house in the family.

You've had 15 years
to take care of it.

Don't be so selfish.

Me?

Talk to Liisa.

A VILLAGE IN THE CITY
Annual urban event

Jaana Mikkonen from Aid
to Disenfranchised Families.

We met last week.

Right, I remember...

What was the project?

Never mind. I just said
hello, since I saw you.

You're hard to miss.
- What do you mean?

Sorry, I'm babbling.

I'm going to lunch.
Would you join me?

Why not?

Okay.

Have you thought who gets
the house when I die? - No.

You should.

Let's not talk about that now.

I can decide what
I talk about and when.

It would be nice to know
everything is in order.

I wouldn't have to worry
at my high age -

if you'll fight over that too.

Which brings to mind, can't
you make peace with Timppa?

We're not fighting.
- Do you take me for an idiot?

I know you.
What is it this time?

Money.
- Always about money!

Is it worth fighting
over petty cash?

And what's it to you?

Hi, mom! How are you?

I'll go lie down.

The new law took effect
in March this year.

All recession era debts
will be pardoned.

What does "all" mean?
- Older than 15 years.

Isn't it almost 15 years
since the bankruptcy?

What are the terms? - None.
Anyone can apply, now.

I already tried once.
- What do you lose by asking?

How big is your debt?
- None of your business.

Fine, at least I'm trying.
- You don't want to know.

Would you tell me
if I wanted to know?

"The simplified process is
like an automatic pardon."

Do you understand? - You
didn't even try to pay it.

It was mentioned here...

"The reasons for the debt
will not be examined -

and the recipient's later
income will not be monitored."

Did you ask anyone or
just consult Liisa and the net?

I thought you'd be thrilled.
- You've had plans before.

It's different. This is a law!
And it's on our side.

We could make a fresh start.

More? All the way...

I need a phone. - You can
make phone calls tomorrow.

One they don't listen to.
Now.

Go on!

Hi. Hop in.
- Why?

Just hop in.

Need anything else?
- No.

Close the door.
