-Sakshi! -Oh!

Hi, I thought that was you.

Hi, I just came to do some shopping.

-Right. -I'm in a bit of a hurry.

I'll see you later, okay?

I sent you a request on Instagram.

Did you not accept it?

Sorry, I didn't see it. I'm terrible at all of this.

I'll do it later.

Now?

Okay.

There.

Done.

Lovely.

Bye.

What are you doing?

You know Rhea's mom, Sakshi?

She doesn't have a single photo of her daughter on Instagram.

I mean, odd, right?

No, it's just that some people, for security reasons,

don't post photos on public platforms.

Please put the phone away and go to sleep.

Okay, hold that! Hold that! Yes.

That's beautiful.

You know, Nandini's

been getting ready for Shreya didi's photoshoot

since last night.

I love that smile, Nandini.

-They both share a special relationship. -Okay, can you look up?

They both came to us nine years ago, around Diwali.

-Chin up. Yes. -Shreya as a volunteer,

and Nandini as one of our wards.

Nandini has thought of Shreya as her mom ever since she was little.

See that sun? Look toward it.

-See the sun? -Yeah.

Okay, don't do that…

Hey, Shreya.

Like every year, thank you so much for helping us with the website.

Sister.

Smile, Nandini.

Shreya, can we meet at your photo lab?

I need a favor.

A little to the left.

A little…

Yes, these curtains. Zoom in on the curtains.

Yes. One minute.

A little to the right. Yes, zoom in on this sweater.

The other one, that side.

Wait a minute.

Is this a lamppost?

Yes, ma'am.

Zoom in.

A little more.

Ma'am, this is the maximum. There's nothing else.

And the photo doesn't have that many details.

I wish there were a few more details.

Don't worry. Don't make yourself sick stressing over this.

-Please. -Yeah.

Anyway, I wanted to thank you.

How would I do all this without you?

Shut up.

Anyway, I'm going to pick up Siddhi now, okay?

-Okay. -I'll see you.

Bye.

Take care.

Mommy, I'm getting ready for the ball. Please don't disturb.

Baby, first tell me, have you done your homework?

Mom, doing work at home is child labor.

So much attitude.

Okay, you know you have to be home by 10:00 p.m. sharp, right?

Ten? Cinderella had a midnight curfew.

Cinderella also cleaned the house and the bathrooms every day.

Okay, fine.

I'll be back by 9:00 p.m., okay?

With both your shoes, please.

I have raised you so well.

That's true. I have the best mom in the world.

-Cecil is good, right? -You're sure? Not a cafe here?

A cafe is fine, you know.

Actually, the crowd there is amazing.

-I'll call the manager. -Yes, yes. What's his name?

-Rahi, Rahul… -Rajiv.

-Sakshi? -Yeah.

-Hey. -Hi.

Gaurav.

This is my husband, Alok.

-Hi. -Hi, Alok.

-My mother-in-law, Madhu. -Namaste.

-Hello, Aunty. -Namaste.

This is Rhea's mom, like I told you.

Yeah, of course.

-Hi. -Which one was yours?

Aunty, the one who played Siddhi's mom.

-Oh, wow! -She did a great job.

-You saw me, Mom and Daddy? -We did! You were so good.

-Thank you. -You did a great job.

Oh, here comes our star.

Rhea, you were also so good.

Such a good actress.

Thank you, Aunty.

She's been a drama queen since birth.

Mrs. Philip, the play was great.

No, no, it's the children.

The kids practiced so hard for this play.

And look at these two. They look just like sisters.

We had to cast them as mother and daughter.

Mommy, can Rhea come to our house, please? Tomorrow is a holiday too.

You know, I have a better idea.

-One second, let me ask. -What?

Gaurav, would you and Sakshi like to come over for dinner tonight?

I mean, the kids want to play together,

and I can call our friends Shreya and Bhaskar.

-What do you say? -Yeah.

It's a great idea.

Guys, we would love to, but dinner's already made at home.

Oh, come on, the food can wait.

Have today's dinner for tomorrow's lunch.

-It'll taste better also. -Yeah.

-Fine, let's do this. -Superb.

-There you go. -Come.

-Have some more. -No, no, I'm good. Thank you.

-I don't have any room left. Thank you. -Please…

Okay, guys, here's another one.

What do you call a guy

who doesn't believe in gyms?

-What? -A gym-naastik.

That's funny.

That's so funny.

That was funny.

I apologize, guys.

After a few drinks, Alok's bad jokes

and Bhaskar's PDA

all come out.

No, no, that's how it should be.

So, you guys have known each other for a long time.

You seem like really close friends.

Yeah, since college.

In fact, Shreya and I… Since school, we've been inseparable.

And in fact, I call her my twin sister.

This twin sister needs to use the washroom.

Excuse me.

Alok.

Go slow.

I mean, you'll scare our guests.

Oh, we can solve that right now.

The guests will join me for another drink too.

Absolutely.

-Who wants coffee? -I'll have some, please.

Anu, sit down.

Time for whisky.

Cheers.

Yes?

Yes, baba.

Yes.

-Alok? -What is it?

You're showing Bhaskar a lot of love.

He's my husband.

-Someone-- -Then who am I?

-Alok, someone might see us. -So let them.

Okay.

Yes, yes.

Shit, man!

We were going for a walk in the mountains at night.

He looked at us and said…

-Thank you. -No, this one.

The one without sugar.

Okay. Thank you.

As we were climbing the mountain in the dark,

-we met a baba. -Thank you so much.

He told us, "If you get lost up there, look up."

"The light from the stars will guide you."

-"You'll have an idea." -He's the expert.

What's going on, guys?

Nothing. We're telling stories about you.

And like bad hosts, we're only talking about ourselves.

Guys, tell us about yourselves.

-Sakshi? -What should I say?

No, we know Gaurav is an architect, but you?

What do you do?

What are your hobbies? What's your story?

I don't have a story.

I met Gaurav in college.

We fell in love and got married.

I'm a happy housewife and now a happier mother.

Absolutely.

There's no greater joy in this life than children.

Ani, you ordered ice cream for the kids, right?

-Should I get it? -Yes.

Okay.

Rhea, Siddhi, ice cream.

But, Bhaskar, the roadside eatery near your hospital has amazing food.

No need to order. I will cook…

Good girl! Okay.

Yes!

See this!

Ice cream!

Sweet!

Before we moved here…

Give it some time, then figure out…

Are you okay?

Anvita?

Anvita, are you okay?

It needs to digest.

That is also something that one needs to figure out.

Yeah, that's right.

-Yeah, yeah, of course. -Aunty, you can't beat the momos here.

But I think it's something to do with the cold weather.

Hello?

Yes, Baldev.

Okay.

But why do the dean and I need to come there?

Is it nice?

Yeah, who can say no to Khurana?

All right.

What happened?

Khurana called for us

for a police inquiry.

You remember Talreja, right?

I don't know, man. I haven't seen him in eight years.

It's so unnecessary.

I'm sorry, what's going on?

Nothing. Many years ago,

there was a guard at our hospital named Talreja.

They found his body.

Outside the tribal area.

That's why.

Looks like the work of the tribals.

-They might have done something. -Poor tribals.

Whenever anything goes wrong,

the whole city blames the poor tribals.

It's become the easiest way out for the police in all investigations.

"The tribals must have done it."

Anyway, baby, we should go home. It's getting pretty late for Rhea too.

Come on, darling.

The wife's spoken, so we'd better head home.

-Goodnight. See you. -Goodnight.

No, Mommy, I don't want to go.

Mommy, please, can Rhea stay here today?

Please, Mommy, please.

-Rhea, no. Next time, please. -Please. Mommy.

No, we won't trouble Anvita aunty right now, okay?

Let the kids stay.

No, I think we should go home.

I mean, the two of you could spend some alone time too.

And I'll drop Rhea off after breakfast.

Okay?

Baby, let her stay.

Beta, you can stay the night,

but don't bother Anvita aunty, okay?

Yes!

I can't wait to show you my bedroom. Come on!

-Okay? One, two, three, go. -Uncle, okay.

-Almost. You got both. -Okay, okay. Let's go.

It's important to brush before bed. Come on, let's go.

But Anvita aunty, I don't have my toothbrush.

That's okay, you can use Siddhi's.

Siddhi can use mine.

-Gross! -Stop it!

I'm joking.

Everyone will get their own brush.

-Come. -Let's go.

Come on.

-There you go. You're welcome. -Thank you.

I'll finish first.

No, I'll finish first.

Yeah. Yeah, there's a towel there.

Thank you.

They're nice people, right?

Yeah.

But…

Anvita's a little pushy, right?

I mean, that day,

she literally forced me to follow her on social media.

But Rhea was insisting, baby.

She's just a kid.

We're the parents. We should be making the call.

And please, next time, support me in front of everyone.

All right, fine. Don't be mad.

Anvita?

What happened?

Ma, there's someone outside.

There's blood out there.

-And there's a dead bird. -Blood? Are you sure?

Yes.

Out there, I just saw it.

There's some kind of black magic there.

Show me.

No, no, we can't go. I'm scared.

Nothing will happen. I'm right here.

-Come with me. -No, no.

I'm right here. Come on.

Don't be scared.

See? There's nothing here.

No, there was.

The rats around here, the little foxes, they do all this, right?

No, there were lamps burning here.

There was a round circle.

Like some kind of witchcraft.

Before bed, we were talking about the tribals, right?

About their rituals and all that.

It must've just stuck in your head.

Forget about it. Let's go to bed.

There's nothing.

There's nothing.

What's going on?

And what is all this?

Sir, we found a rooster and these ashes outside your room.

Looks like those damn tribal people are practicing witchcraft again.

I haven't been feeling well since this morning.

It must've had some effect on me.

Get rid of this.

-And get me some water. -I'll get it, sir ji.

Chauhan, come clean this up.

Sir ji, I have an update.

Yes, go ahead.

Sir ji, please see a doctor.

Don't annoy me, man. Just give me the update.

Sir ji, we didn't find a phone on Talreja's body.

But we've dug up his entire history.

Sir, he bought a big house in Mumbai. And financed a new BMW, sir.

He's just a regular security guard. Did he win the lottery or something?

Any update from forensics?

Sir, there are no fingerprints on the body.

But the postmortem is underway.

As you asked, I told the dean and Bhaskar to meet us.

All right then.

Let's go there.

-Yes, sir. -We might find out something.

He was struck on the head with an object.

The back of the skull was crushed.

Meaning the weapon was likely metal.

Like a rod.

Did Talreja ever contact you

after he left Shimla?

No.

He just came in one day and said he had to go to Mumbai.

After that, I'm only seeing his face now.

What about you, Bhaskar?

Do you know anything about him?

I mean, his story,

or any enemies we could trace?

No, sir.

He was a good man.

He worked here for a few years, then vanished.

Right.

So when Anvita's child went missing, Talreja was working here?

And he quit his job a week after the kidnapping.

And you guys didn't get suspicious?

Shit.

Now that you mention it, I can see the connection.

Do you think he was involved in the child's disappearance?

No, but it's possible, right?

A CCTV security guard at a hospital

quits his job a week after a child goes missing.

And then he is found dead eight years later.

Besides that,

a nice house in Mumbai

and an expensive car.

He must've hit the jackpot somehow,

which ended up costing him his life.

-Baldev! -What's wrong, Khurana sahab?

-Baldev! -Khurana sahab!

-Doctor sahab! -Khurana sahab!

-Sir! Lift him! -Khurana sahab!

Khurana sahab!

Hey! Don't get up.

Stay down. I gave you a painkiller.

Is the pain better?

Yes, it's a little better.

How long have I been here?

For two hours.

-Oh, man, it's been too long. -Sir, please.

You can't go anywhere.

Stay lying down.

Baldev said you've been in pain for a few days.

Considering your medical history,

we should run some tests.

I want to do an MRI.

Rest.

Do one thing, Baldev.

Yes, sir.

Get Talreja's phone records.

It's possible that whoever called him last is the one who killed Talreja.

I'll get it done, sir. Please rest.

Come on.

Close the door.

Come.

Hello!

Is Sakshi madam home?

She went out.

Oh, I see.

I just came to drop Rhea off.

Okay.

Just a minute.

I needed to use the washroom.

Yes, of course, ma'am. Come in.

The bathroom is this way, ma'am.

-This way? -Yes.

Okay. Thank you.

-Siddhi, go play with Rhea. -Okay.

Rhea, show me that game.

Anvita?
