Original subtitles

I've never bought anything from Pertti Lakkala. Never.

That's my last online auction transaction.

It's this table here.

Reija delivered it to me.

She was in her forties, definitely not called Pertti.

Has something happened to this Pertti?

You collect knives.

Yeah. My family is from Ostrobothnia.

You've heard of puukkojunkkarit, the knife-fighters.

- Did your family take part in that? - Actually, quite the opposite.

My great-grandfather was your colleague, a police chief.

He and his team solved at least a hundred knife incidents.

Great-grandfather put all the knives that were used in killings -

on the top drawer of his desk.

When he passed away, -

those hundreds of knives in his office were called a collection

and delivered to the widow.

The boys in the Saarnio family were given knives as birthday presents.

For the last three generations.

I'm the first one who actually wanted to collect them.

Were they all used to kill at least one person?

As I recall, four are Dad's and mine

that we got from Nan, the rest have been collected.

What did you expect?

Pagan Matti remembered making a bid that can't be found.

Matti is almost 70 years old and his computer is from the 1990s.

Why would anyone kill an old man in such a terrible way?

Ten stab wounds.

An old grudge. The killer must be in his age group.

Or there might be several, maybe even ten of them.

That policewoman, Kautsalo. How come you know her?

We studied at the Police Academy. We became best friends.

We did a traineeship at the same place in Seinäjoki.

Something must have happened.

I get a freezing feeling. Do tell, please.

I was taught at home to do as I'm told.

It made me feel safe.

I thought that a girl who follows all rules and regulations -

would also be liked by all.

Nina didn't care about rules and regulations. She had her own ones.

When I was younger, I thought -

that we could learn something important from each other, -

complement each other.

I was wrong.

But your links, all of D-time's heroic actions.

He's been a busy man. I'm pretty excited about this.

It's all just gossip from the hacker world, rumours.

All the cooperation with Interpol.

How is it possible that there isn't any information on him?

He's a hacker, not part of the police.

Can we negotiate with him if we offer protection -

for working more closely together?

I don't know. Hackers like to be outlaws.

Although their intentions are good -

the freedom and anonymity of the net is...

Sari Nikander.

Of course.

That's fine. Yes, in half an hour.

Yes, I'll make sure that this will happen. Thanks, goodbye.

- It was Kleber. He wants to meet up. - Really? Where?

At the police station. He also wants all the CCTV cameras turned off.

Are you investigating the theft?

- I already withdrew my report. - Yeah.

Klaus, it's Toni!

- Are you going to the police station? - Sure, I can go there.

Right then.

So what did you want to say?

Down-time says that...

Down-time has missed this all and wants to help you.

Great.

Here's a list of things we need and a Proton Mail address.

Klaus, you and Leena have lived in Ivalo for God knows how long.

Twelve years this Christmas.

- You repaired two pairs of my shoes. - Are they broken now?

No. And Venla has been in your club and loves it.

We also think it's wonderful that she's found it.

I appreciate it how you take care of your sister.

So don't get me wrong, but I really have to ask.

Who the hell are you really?

I wasn't always a cobbler.

I studied programming when we lived in Germany.

I even worked in the industry for a while and was good at it.

But not nearly as good as my best friend.

Programming and hacking meant everything to my friend.

A natural at it.

- Are we talking about D-time? - Yeah.

Little by little I started to get anxious about -

how much software and algorithms define our lives.

I wanted to get away from it all.

But D-time dove even deeper into that mess.

If there is a rabbit hole,

then my friend is the rabbit in that hole.

Pics of two contaminated PCs. Fennogrid sign-ins.

- Doesn't he need anything else? - We'll let you know.

Can you estimate how fast your friend can do this?

I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

Yeah. Oh, the shoes. Our mother is from Ivalo.

When our dad died in Germany, -

we decided to spend Mum's final years here.

I had trekking shoes.

I wanted to get them repaired but there was no cobbler's.

I decided to retrain myself and I haven't regretted it.

It's fun and useful.

So if your shoes break, I have a repair guarantee.

Thank you, Klaus.

He's the perfect go-between to a hacker who wants to hide.

He doesn't have internet, mobile phone, nothing.

He's just a black hole.

13:35:23:879

13:40:30:080 13:40:32:040

13:40:35:009

There was only one customer at the cobbler's.

Only one? It makes things easier.

- I think it was this one. - Toni is new here.

What do you mean? I was here when you met four years ago.

You even sent a photo of your baby.

I meant this traineeship.

Toni was a murder suspect when you two started dating.

Now he's the father of your child, you live together, and he works here.

Here.

A stick and a bag. A wild guess, he went to sharpen his skates.

Did you follow the boy?

He's Anna Lehkosuo's youngest.

The parents have reindeer and chickens.

And there was a performance last night.

It was easy to infiltrate there as a stepdad.

And the play went even better than on the opening night.

Kleber didn't really talk that long with anyone.

How does Kleber contact D-time?

Valentin visited the Klebers last night.

But you probably knew about it.

Or maybe not. Was Valentin aware that we're following Klaus?

Did they seem to know each other?

I couldn't say. Lankinen was there alone.

He thought that you sent Valentin there.

He was there around thirty minutes.

We have five people working here. Surveillance is too much for us.

Keep following Kleber.

We have to do a security check on partners regardless -

whether they work for another authority.

I need all Valentin Kumar's info on Traficom since his job application.

How soon can you send the file?

So the online auction account of a local homicide victim.

Yes, and the phone records.

According to the log, some information has been wiped.

An event or events have disappeared. Same goes for the phone.

The last caller info is gone. We only know how long it lasted.

A minute and eight seconds.

Okay. Can they be restored?

From where?

Somewhere. Who knows how to do that?

The security protocols of the auction site are so bad

that any mediocre hacker could have done it -

but caller info is another matter.

Could you access that?

I'm trying to get an idea about how good a hacker this could be.

- Without governmental permits? - Yes.

No.

Or maybe.

Mobile providers are difficult. They're well-protected.

But if I would have prepared everything for a long time, then...

I was waiting for Ori.

Maybe I don't appreciate the computers that much,

but I do appreciate how you never back off.

You're a badass, like me. Only a bit more wiry.

Here, take it. It's better if we get along.

And I enjoyed your push-up joke.

I was pretty happy with it myself.

What's a double Trojan?

Why do you ask?

When Poison hired me and Vasili,

Ori told her brother

that we are going to use a double Trojan in our heist.

Did she say that?

So, what is it?

Imagine a very big, hollow wooden horse

squeezing into your city

through your narrow and well-guarded gates.

Then inside of that horse

is even a bigger wooden horse.

Seriously, you're not going to tell me.

You poor bastard. We hired you for your muscle and fire power.

Not to worry about things

that you can never fully understand.

Mm.

And this shit tastes like the left side of a butthole.

You said you were the best hacker alive

but that's not really true.

Before Poison you were in Conti.

Before that, you were with EvilCorp.

Every hacker group you've ever been part of,

the same white-hat hacker stopped you.

Every time.

D-time is retired.

Maybe you are the sorriest hacker alive.

Your dancing partner left you

because he got bored of beating you every fucking time.

Pagan Matti didn't imagine anything.

A deal was made on the auction site before Lakkala died.

Pagan Matti just confirmed over the phone -

that you always had to pay cash to Lakkala in person. Always.

Pagan Matti's offer for the knives had been 240 euros -

but another buyer outbid him.

How does this help us?

Who carries around that much money? Or even cash?

The town has one cash machine.

I'll get the CCTV from the bank.

Good.

My namesake Vasili.

Vasily the Blessed.

The wonder worker of Moscow, Vasily the Naked.

I read these books from cover to cover.

Vasily didn't want to wear clothes -

because he wanted to receive and accept all God's gifts.

The cold, the heat, the wind, the sun.

What are you saying, Little Bear?

Nature, my sister.

It's catching up with me here.

It's much easier to kill people in the city.

I need you.

With the money we will all get from this, -

promise you, we can retire.

Grigori wants me to ask you about the details of our heist.

Is he in contact with the FSB bureau?

That's a big no-no for us.

Grigori is very loyal, loyal to the Motherland.

Whereas I'm only loyal to you.

Nikander, or should I say super inspector Nikander?

I guess you don't like skiing much either.

My knees can't take it. That's how it goes.

Cross-country skiing. I really don't see the charm.

Ready for our next big step now.

Please, let's do it.

It's funny that we don't know each other any better.

Aren't you also Nina's good friend?

I know what's going on here.

I've read some of the pre-trial investigation reports of big cases -

that you've had.

You almost died a year ago when Nina went rogue again.

- It wasn't like that. It happened... - By chance.

Nina isn't a real police officer.

If she gets a serious case, there's a risk she'll mess it up.

What are you talking about?

And that's not the worst thing.

We had a custody case in Seinäjoki when we were trainees together.

A youngish, divorced couple, the mother had their child's custody.

Until the child disappeared.

The father was a suspect but nothing was found. It couldn't be proved.

Nina and I and a couple of others -

drove the father into questioning many times.

Once Nina didn't drive to the station but to a garage on the way.

She had imprisoned the father's mutt there.

We watched when Nina poured fuel on it.

She said she was going to burn it if the father wouldn't start talking.

Did it work?

Of course. Nina got praised. The child was found because of her.

I had to tell our supervisor what Nina had done.

- It wasn't exactly easy for me. - And Nina was allowed to go on?

She's the chief of police here.

Great, Nina. Wonderful, Nina. Well done, Nina. Nina, Nina.

Didn't the father press charges?

No, he came to thank Nina for bringing him to his senses.

I bet even the dog loved and admired Nina.

Watch out. She'll pull you into something you can't make it out of.

The attackers contacted us.

Ten minutes, see you in my room.

You are Poisoned.

Your company's internal network

has fallen victim of a fatal cyber infection.

The bug spreading in your corporate system

comes with a kill switch.

If you need the kill switch code to restore your internal network

pay twenty million euros in bitcoin to...

That leads to a crypto wallet.

Your payment is expected in 48 hours.

After which time the enclosed QR code expires

and we can no longer help you.

Turn it off.

I set up a meeting with Fennogrid and our people.

Good. D-time also contacted me.

- How? - Kleber called.

He wants the Fennogrid network's data communications' telemetry.

He wants the data communication dump.

What does that mean?

The malware rewrites itself to the servers.

- So we're getting somewhere? - That's the idea.

The QR code in the message links to a crypto wallet.

We can't trace the owner.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be there. What do we know about the attackers?

The first sighting of the Poison hacker group is from 2019.

They concentrate on big game.

They have targeted big companies and public infrastructure.

Do they have a homeland?

Russia, close connections to FSB and intelligence services.

Oh dear.

Poison has acted this whole time as any other criminal hacker group.

Most of all they want money.

The username of the leader is Ori.

We assume she's a woman, not common in hacker circles.

That's all we know. We don't even have a photo.

Poison's most famous member was Jerome Bezenkoff.

Was?

He was arrested a year ago in an Interpol raid.

We don't know who replaced him.

Apparently, someone capable enough.

- 20 million isn't a huge amount. - Since when?

Everyone's done a great job keeping this mess hidden.

However, during the past 40 hours -

more money has vanished from our stock value.

Our partners are wondering, rumours are flying.

We can't hide this much longer.

Okay. Let's assume that we pay the ransom. Does it guarantee anything?

Often criminal hackers keep their promises so that people pay them.

Let's pay straight away.

We don't have the means to stop this ourselves.

Or did I understand correctly, Matti?

Of course, the NBI doesn't condone cooperation with blackmailers.

No need to pay anything now. We have our man on it.

- Who is he? - That's confidential.

Is he the miracle hacker that Antti Koskela told about?

- We're figuring out his identity. - Don't you know who he is?

We know that he has helped the NBI before.

We'll give Nikander's secret agent 24 hours to solve this.

Then we'll see how far we've come.

Wouldn't it be better to pay up?

No, 20 million is a lot of money.

Nikander, fuck. Just find out who your Batman really is.

Based on the description, is it this guy?

That's the guy. When was this?

The same night the assumed deal was made.

Find out everything about that Saarnio.

Wait. Does that one have our uniform on?

That one. Can you zoom in?

Get up! Get up!

Get up! You returned the stolen money into the club's money box.

I have a night shift. I'm spying on our family friends.

Bloody hell! An NHL millionaire can't be a police officer.

Children should go on their trip and it was the opening night.

- That's a breach of office! - Darling.

- Vigilantism with your own money. - Calm down.

- Don't tell me to calm down. - I will. It was Venla.

- What? - She's 16, she'll get a record.

When I talked to the children, they all knew where the box was.

Every single one. Except for Venla.

What are you doing in my room?

I'll show you where the money is.

I'm sorry, Horsey. I'll borrow your stick and you'll get more treats.

Bunny, why do you need money?

I don't want to go to the amusement park.

I'm afraid of the rides. They all look dangerous.

Of course, you don't have to go.

The others will go. They talk about it all excited.

What were you thinking?

If I took the money, we wouldn't have to go.

But then more money came in.

Now I have to go despite all this.

Oh, Bunny.

We have to talk about this with Klaus and Leena.

You have a matinee tomorrow. Let's work this out together.

I can't go there. For real, no.

You have to.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry that I can't put my hood down.

I don't want to go on those rides either.

They're terrible. Nowadays, they control them with computers.

If there's a fault...

Tsii-woo, suu-tsuu, tsaa-hii, poo-poo, pii-poo.

No, blue.

I don't get anything. I don't get it. No rides.

Klaus can take the club members where they want to go.

The rest of us, we can eat ice cream and even candyfloss.

That's a good idea. There won't be a fault in candyfloss.

It's really sticky.

You have to put your costume on.

I can't stay in this club.

Nonsense! We trust you.

Would you like to see your painting?

- Where is it? - In a secret place.

Is it far? I have to go back to work soon.

It's some way away but we can make sure

that Venla will be home in good time.

We are ready but we really need to know everything.

Moving several divisions to the border -

will not go unnoticed.

We can't proceed until...

I can't squeeze anything out of Ori.

After that Belgian freak -

planted ten fucking knives into that old guy's back -

it seems like Ori is afraid of him.

Ori afraid? I find that hard to believe.

Try harder.

I don't want to meet you here anymore.

This is a good place.

Vasili can see and hear everything that happens online.

Then we should hire him.

I beg of you, don't do it.

11:10:41:800

Well, well, well.

Gregoris Illuminator.

How did you know?

Jesus, man.

I planted a tracker on your gear the first day we met.

Can we negotiate?

You only have things I don't want.

We can arrange a lot of money.

I sweat money in my hotel sheets.

Safety.

Safety was the first thing I bought for myself.

Listen, listen.

We don't want to involve Russian military in any of this.

The army is clumsy.

Vaga, listen.

I thought I made it clear to everyone in the group.

Vaga, listen.

Let me illuminate something else to you.

Vaga... Vaga.

After I'm done, you don't have to worry

who is the best hacker alive.

Goodbye, you stupid fuck!

Yes. Of course, I understand that flights are booked online -

but your site had this phone number listed just in case.

Yes.

Thank you. Yes.

Just a moment.

Right. It's great that things can be still done this way.

Can I help you?

I'm here for hats.

Oh, Leena!

She's my sister

and this is actually her boutique.

I know, I have been here.

Leena?

Hello! Yes.

Hey!

Hello, busy day.

Me too.

Had myself a day that definitely needs to be rewarded.

Hello there. Is this your daughter?

No, our friend.

Nice to meet you.

Now... I've had enough of this!

- Did it break? - Do they multiply?

They're everywhere. Do they fuck each other?

- They work hard. - Yes, vacuuming away.

Don't invite a vampire into your home.

That Lakkala. We got the pathology report.

Oulu Apologised for taking this long but they did notice something.

"The victim was stabbed multiple times with knives

which led to his death."

"Stab wounds in the back differ in width and depth."

And look at the conclusions.

"At least seven different knives were used to kill the victim."

"Maybe even all ten wounds have been caused with different weapons."

The ten knives that were on sale were used to kill the man.

- That might have been on sale. - Now we'll talk to Saarnio.

Right, 24 hours is up.

- Has the expert been in contact? - He hasn't.

Fennogrid, war room people. Any progress?

The malware doesn't act like it should. It's hard to recognise it.

So no progress.

You can't guarantee that we can ward off this attack.

The NBI has kept the Finnish Government updated.

We've discussed with the Ministries of the Interior and Finance.

Since the target is a company maintaining national power grid -

and we have to think about social balance, blah, blah, blah,

we're now ready to pay the ransom.

- We twiddled our thumbs for 24 hours. - So we have to act fast.

We'll connect Nikander to the Ministry of Finance.

- Sari! Sari! He cracked it. - What?

D-time cracked it. It's not a traditional malware.

It's like an update taking control of the finance program.

Is that why it messes it up?

Can this be fixed?

Now that we know what we're doing? Hell yeah and fairly easily.

He cracked it.

Congratulations, Nikander. You just saved us 20 million.

Unbelievable.

Is there enough evidence to arrest him?

No but we have a reason to ask for a DNA sample.

I'm going to question Saarnio about the night Lakkala was butchered.

- We're a bit busy at the moment. - Talk to me.

I only know Valentin from his time at Traficom.

Traficom's files on Valentin contain a lot of interesting things.

Did you know that he studied programming in Munich?

Only a few among the best in cyber security -

who haven't found each other in the web

know each other from same schools.

Is Valentin one of the best?

I've never met anyone better. He's a magician.

Police! Alvar, are you home?

Best DNA prints, where do you get them? Do you have any favourites?

I don't think we'll need them.

There's nine of these. One is missing.

It's a request for your university student records.

I'm following an important lead here.

I already know

that Valentin Kumar studied at your university.

But I would like to check another name. Klaus Kleber.

Hey.

Have you seen Grigori?

Is he missing?

We can't reach him.

Good job. Over here.

Maybe Grigori gave up.

To me, he just seemed like an impatient guy.

Grigori never gives up.

Now Grigori's gone,

we don't have to book an extra cottage for this guy.

Great to see you, Alvar.

We need you.

I did what you asked.

Hush! The local police are getting too nosy.

You are much safer here with us.

And the best fun is about to begin.
