Veikko is taking care of his friend Tinke, who has ruined his health with drinking, while waiting for the right moment to tell him something important. Iines and Aava, teenage twins, are done listening to their mother’s stories about their astronaut/pirate father and want to find him. When the traces lead to Tinke, he is overjoyed. This makes it even harder for Veikko to tell his friend the news.
