teimo pielinen (my summer car)

Description

Teimo Pielinen is the man who owns Teimo's shop (Teimon Kauppa) and Pub Nappo in Peräjärvi. Teimo is a balding man with glasses, he wears his uniform when working in the store and Pub Nappo. Barely anything is known of Teimo's past, but according to his stories he has had a dog, he has a wife called Irma, he was a fisherman, took part in the rally and he used to be a wrestler of some kind in his youth. Teimo is likely in his later 40s or early 50s. He speaks with a dialect from Savonia and is very calm and easy-going, but showing him the middle finger, peeing into his face or smashing his shop or pub window will anger him. Breaking the window will also make the player unable to do further shopping until the 2,760 mk sum on the cash register is paid. Once the store has been entered from the main door, he will usually greet the player by saying "Katos päevää! No mitteepä laetetaan?" ("Well hello! What would you like to have?") or "Hyvvee päevee ja tervetulloo Teimon kaappaan" ("Good day and welcome to Teimo's Shop"). After some time, Teimo will often tell some kind of hilarious story. One example is when he says how modern (that is, the mid-'90s) music is really bad and that they won't play anything good on the radio anymore. He also says that he likes the Marjatta song also seen on the TV in the player's home.
