Katri, Girl of the Meadows Season 1 Episode 8 The Accident 1984
Even though it should be clear that the safety of the cows is the alpha priority for which she was hired and that the errand Ulla charged her is an illegal order to never be complied, Katri dreads the prospect of Teemu purging her from the payrolls on Ulla's behalf if she stands her ground but also remembers having it explained that Ulla is not all there upstairs; commiserating Ulla's anguish for her late daughter Leena and reasoning that Aapeli alone is enough to keep the placid herd in check, Katri decides for the errand in spite of Aapeli's protests and oblivious to Pekka sensing a deviant diagnostic when she races by him. Katri's destination is Ulla's friend Kivi who had promised to isolate a quantity of swedes for Ulla to make a small bumper crop; even as Katri makes her volition clear for the commerce rather than conversation and prosecutes her return commute with the payload, Viikuna decides to explore around the cliff in spite of Aapeli's protests against it -- especially when the other cows decide to follow Viikuna's lead!!! It ultimately takes a collaborative effort alongside Pekka complete with some strategic counsel involving all the cows' names to successfully effect a rescue; unfortunately, a flawless survivor ratio is of null utility against the enraged Teemu who cares nothing that Katri was only complying Ulla's orders!!!
