THE HUMAN BEAST 1/2

Einari had to move, his father got a new job.

They had to move.

We know how much you liked Einari.

Kari!

It's only a few hours' drive.

We could drive up there some weekend.

Sometimes people just have to...

they have to relocate.

Janina asked me to bring you these.

Thanks.

People talk way too much at these events.

We have gathered here to pay our respects to our lovely,

beloved Pauliina Sorjonen.

''A weary soul to rest is laid, eternal gentle Sundays await.''

Kaisa-Mari Holopainen and family.

''The Good Shepherd's timely aid a weary spirit's woes unmade.''

Colleagues from Helsinki.

"A life has come to an end..."

-I thought I'd skip this part. -You can't.

"...Leena ja Ismo Rajala."

I've never quite understood the point.

Are we going to do this together?

''We leave this life and yet never leave.

Our lives continue in all we have done.''

Anonymous.

There are dessert and beverages on the table over there.

Don't go anywhere.

Does Kari know?

No, not yet.

You'll have to tell him sooner or later.

He doesn't need the information today.

WE LEAVE THIS LIFE AND YET NEVER LEAVE.

I wrote this song when Mom was spending her final weeks in hospital.

And,

the working title is "Hatred".

This is the first part of the song.

I carry and bear the pain

That has made you suffer again

I see your peaceful sleep

Turn endless oceans deep

Sometimes people simply fall

Without heroics, battle calls

The last days may be beautiful

But they won't bring you back

Just leave me alone in silence

Sorrows to dust and back to black

And I hate happy memories

I hate sunny reveries

So leave me alone

Leave me alone

Just leave me alone in silence

Goddammit!

Do you need help?

No.

You don't have to do that right now.

When should I do it then?

Sorjonen.

I'll be right there.

He's coming there because he wants to!

Janina!

What are you doing?

This has to be done.

Going somewhere?

To work.

I'll let you get on with that.

But don't throw anything away yet.

Why not?

You might regret it later.

What are you doing here?

Investigating a crime.

I don't think you should be here.

Where am I supposed to be then?

Looks like his insides have been gouged out.

He's been mauled.

Not by a wolf or a dog.

Something smaller.

Why was the body placed here?

Why not there?

That's closer to the road and hidden from sight.

Want to know who the murderer is?

A rat.

It was in his stomach.

Stomach?

You saw the point of entry.

Torture method.

When you block other escape routes, the rat has to eat its way out.

You saw the abrasions on his wrists and ankles?

Traces of polypropylene on his skin. He'd been tied up.

The straps were about 2,5 cm wide.

He'd been tortured elsewhere, then placed where he was found?

Took him two to three hours to die.

Hypothermia probably rendered him unconscious before he died.

The perpetrator wanted to cause pain.

Yeah...

Why are people tortured?

For a confession, or to get some information out of them.

The victim's mouth was taped.

The inquisition...

Their intentions were good, in a way. They tried to root out heresy.

But was it done to cure the victims

or to control people?

To get attention for the cause.

Thanks HP!

My first case at the NBI was also a mutilation.

A rat?

A dog. It mauled a man.

So?

The dog's owner put a lot of work into training it for the job.

Why?

He wanted to impress. Not the victim, but others.

Lack of affective empathy.

What?

The perpetrators usually think they're right, that they've been wronged.

The MO tells us the perpetrator is worth noticing.

The body was meant to be found.

But why was it there?

The victim has an identical twin brother.

The victim, Anssi Matinsalo, 45, bachelor, no family.

Hard worker, responsible. Nothing special.

His twin brother Kimmo is more interesting.

Criminal record?

One-year suspended sentence in 2013.

A case of mistaken identity?

Have a word with the brother.

Did Niko ask you to watch over me?

He's my superior.

I'll tell you if I'm not up to this.

You do that.

I don't get why anybody would want to harm Anssi.

Where were you around the time of the murder?

The day before yesterday?

I had a date. One of those dating sites.

If I'd known Anssi was in--

You don't drive?

No. I don't.

Because of what happened six years ago?

There was all sorts of stuff back then.

Divorce and...

I drank quite a bit.

The girl came out of nowhere,

darted out of a hedgerow on a scooter.

She wasn't even wearing a reflector.

You got off quite easy.

Is there anybody who would want to hurt you?

Do you mean...?

It can't be counted out.

Help us.

Your lenient sentence.

Did it rouse negative feelings?

The little girl's parents?

I don't think so.

We're here because of what happened to Iris six years ago.

I probably shouldn't say this, but it somehow feels fair

that the one who did that to Iris...

has to go through something horrible himself.

We wanted to keep all this.

Does it work?

Is trying to remember wrong?

The parents have a motive.

The girl's room was a shrine.

Are objects necessary for remembering?

Why not clear away the past instead of reminding yourself of it every day?

Quite.

Who read my report?

Why did I mention the family's dogs?

They like animals.

So?

The perpetrator used a rat to commit a crime. Doesn't fit.

Could you find Kimmo Matinsalo's court records from 2013 for me?

After my missing person report.

Who's missing?

The parents of the man who just left.

A retired couple.

Routine case.

I'm fine.

That's what you wanted to talk about?

Not me, actually, but Karoliina Lahti.

She's in the interview room.

Why did you bring my therapist here?

Standard procedure.

When an officer's family member dies,

we have to assess their ability to work.

I thought it would be easier to talk to someone who knows you.

HP tipped me off about who to ask.

I won't be able to refuse, apparently?

Kari. I need you more than ever, but in good health.

Is there something else I should know about?

Let's just get this over with first.

I'm used to being on that side of the table.

This is not an interrogation.

That's where we already differ.

Does being at work feel good?

It does.

Why?

You know me.

It's not defensive behavior, it's work addiction. I need work.

It's the only part of me still left.

You told me Pauliina's illness triggered some symptoms.

Are you still thinking about old cases?

I don't need to see old victims inside my head anymore, if that's what you mean.

Do the old cases distract you?

The opposite. Everything is connected.

What you have done before is present here and now.

The past can help you if you let it.

Synesthesia.

What is the purpose of this? A report to Niko?

If there's a chance I can solve crimes,

isn't that reason enough to keep working?

Hi.

Hi.

How about eating out? Just to get out of the house.

Not today.

I want to stay at home.

Just a thought.

Are we eating here?

It's better this way.

We should find new ways of doing things.

Our ways.

Something wrong?

Want to know what I've been doing all day?

I do know. You've been clearing out the boxes...

Janina.

Come back here.

Let's talk.

How about the party? Any chance of turning your head?

My ride is here.

Hold on.

-What time do you get off? -Around five. Why?

Would you like to do something?

I don't want to stay at home.

You can wait inside.

Leave your car here and come inside.

Five shots.

I haven't finished this one yet.

These are for me.

Should I be worried?

You're close to death at the retirement home

and have to deal with it, but our lives have just begun.

Five shots?

Do you think it's wrong to dance if someone has just died?

No I don't.

You want to dance?

Raise your head a little.

Hi!

Wait a little.

-Where the fuck can I go? -Nowhere, just wait.

Hi.

You've got to be joking.

You've got to be joking.

Janina. Alright, let's see.

Look at me, stay with me!

-How much has she drunk? -I didn't keep tabs on her.

I told Janina she could stay here for a while.

You decided that, did you?

It's my name on the lease.

Stop that. Katia, stop it.

I don't want to go home.

Does Kari know you're here?

Janina!

Does Kari know you're here?

Is she alright?

She just had a few too many.

I'll bring her a few changes of clothes.

That might be good for her.

It's a good idea.

You're a good friend.

You're not coming?

Hang in there.

Thanks.

3-70, 3-70.

The first patrol has arrived and started to seal the place off.

Don't touch anything before SECRI arrive. And keep clear of the field.

Shall we go?

A family nearby let their dog roam free out here.

It found the arm in the snow and started barking.

Have they tried to find the arm's owner?

Niko told them to wait for us.

Hi.

The year I started at the NBI, we found two shoes in the woods.

We started wondering what the victim's shoes

were doing beside a path.

It turned out they were pointing us in a certain direction.

This finger is pointing toward the barn. Has anybody been there yet?

Kari!

We found something behind the barn.

Ella Raunio, 23, healthcare student.

Her father reported her missing when she didn't come home from school.

The wheelchair is from the hospital. They last treated Ella for a broken hip.

Last treated Ella?

They treated her many times.

Fractures, internal bleeding...

What are you looking for?

Convictions.

This "loving father" was given a suspended sentence for beating up his ex in 2002.

And a restraining order.

She lived with her father?

Every other week.

We have a suspect. Kari and Lena, interview the father.

Wait.

Police, stop!

I haven't done anything.

We just want... Shut up!

We just want a word with you.

Honestly, I don't know where Ella is.

Ella's schoolmate saw her leave school.

Where were you?

At home.

Can somebody verify that?

I was alone.

What are you accusing me of?

What are you thinking?

He doesn't have an alibi.

I haven't done anything.

That man wouldn't be able to kill his daughter.

He's been beating her up for years.

We're looking for a narcissist. He lacks self-esteem.

He hit her to keep her near him,

broke her down to make her depend on him.

That man is all alone.

Take some clothes off. It's hot in here.

How quickly will these thaw?

How are you holding up?

You contacted my therapist.

Niko wanted an occupational therapist, but I thought this would be better.

What do you want to know?

I'm interested in the hand.

This has been done by a professional.

With autopsy tools?

See that Bosch drill?

Our tools are off the shelf too. You just need to pick the right one.

With a standard drill bit, it's good for opening a skull.

Was the hand sawn off before or after death?

Do you really want to know?

That's all I need.

The culprit thinks he's clever.

Treasure hunting for the police.

MISSING PERSON REPORT

I need to write a missing person report.

A retired couple, routine case.

Stop sneaking around.

Bras should be washed in a laundry bag.

You've told me that.

The support wire might come off and jam the machine.

Why am I doing this alone? This is not the fifties.

Have you slept? You look tired.

There's been all sorts.

Doing the housework properly will reduce your work stress.

Oh, but you like chaos.

No, I like it when things are in order.

I do.

You like to play the chef and let me do this.

We can swap places.

You like your deck to be shuffled. You like those photos on the wall.

My old case from 2013.

What's that doing there?

Common denominator:

torture by animal.

My first case from 2002.

Common denominator:

clue about a hidden body.

Common denominator number three:

convicted family member.

Anssi Matinsalo's brother ran over a child.

Ella Raunio's father was convicted of assault.

Coincidence?

The relatives might be the actual targets instead of the victims themselves.

Why?

Why were both victims tortured?

Kimmo Matinsalo's sentence was short. Too short, according to some.

Culprits are made to suffer.

A lenient sentence enabled Raunio to continue his violent behavior.

-Revenge? -Or a message.

Nonetheless, we'll continue looking for two separate perpetrators.

Have you found the missing pensioners?

No.

I need all the documents on the family.

And I want to meet the son.

Why?

If my theory

is correct, I'll explain those pictures, these cases

and why I want to see the son.

Alright.

We'll do so.

You were sentenced eight years ago.

It was an accident.

A medical error caused by inexperience.

How did the patient's parents react?

They...

appealed the sentence.

They said...

justice hadn't been served.

The missing pensioner.

Matti Rinno can identify the body.

Kari.

Kari!

If you have any idea who the culprit is, do tell us.

We're not here by chance.

We have to find Matti Rinno's mother before it's too late.

How?

All these cases point toward my old ones. I had a case in which two close brothers

were left for worm food.

Now we found a spouse who was left to be eaten by birds.

The wife has been left for bait?

Each body has been carefully placed. The first one at a mine,

the second one in a barn and the third one on that roof.

Isn't that Lasse Maasalo's moldy house?

What does Lasse Maasalo have to do with this?

We need to search the nearby areas.

If we move fast, we might be able to save one victim!

She's alive. SECRI are here. She needs first aid.

Blanket! And a first aid kit.

Kari.

Are you sure about Lasse Maasalo?

This is the on-scene commander. I want an APB on Lasse Maasalo.

What?

He's dangerous, a local ex-chemist.

''We leave this life and yet never leave.

Our lives continue in all we have done.''

Anonymous.

WE LEAVE THIS LIFE AND YET NEVER LEAVE. OUR LIVES CONTINUE IN ALL WE HAVE DONE.

I thought you wouldn't come.

My condolences

for your loss.
