Matti helps his sister, who is in trouble, and uncovers more peculiarities in Patrik's past and the Rissanen's insurance case. Eeva opens up to her gynecologist and discovers a new side of Sofia.
Their wedding anniversary takes a backseat as Eeva must stretch herself thin for a critical corporate case at Benson, while Matti looks into the puzzling water quality results in Ritarinmäki. Matti finally dares to open up to Arkivuori.
Matti shares damning information about Patrik with the women at Benson. He is convinced it's a police matter, but Sofia remains unconvinced by the evidence, forcing Eeva to decide whose side she's on.
Matti defends a police officer suspected of murder and loses a crucial Ritarinmäki witness. Stuck in a deadlock with Matti, Eeva receives advice from Sofia to take a break from her current life, including Matti.
Living with Sofia, Eeva is disappointed when her mother once again hides the truth. Matti is ready to give up on the Ritarinmäki case but receives a lead from an unexpected source that keeps it alive.
Ritarinmäki has pitted Matti and Eeva against each other in court. The truth about Patrik's actions finally comes to light, affecting not only the outcome of the case but also Matti and Eeva's future together.
