Walk straight, babe.

Are you happy?

I don't believe in getting bogged down by all that crap.

I'm not that kind of a person.

And you? Happy?

In a manner of speaking.

And what manner would this be?

Barring marriage,

there are other windows

to let happiness waft in

laced with warm sunshine.

And I have tasted happiness.

Ishi!

Poetry doesn't alter reality.

Imagine…

What if you find a man

you can trust 100 percent?

Wouldn't that be perfect?

The joy of a true companion is unmatched.

Don't you feel incomplete?

Not once you're used to being alone.

Nonsense! I don't agree with such martyrdom.

No one wants to be sad.

We are responsible…

for our own happiness.

My life so far…

Come on, Ishi!

Everyone deals with crap.

Life is never a bed of roses.

True.

But compared to others, my "crap" has been…

a lot less fragrant. And dark.

As children, we're told

to do things that we won't regret.

I didn't have anybody to teach me that lesson.

Or maybe I was just a dimwit.

I'm still paying off that price.

And it's too late now.

What's going on with you that you can't speak about?

Sorry, I'm calling so late.

Can you come over, Saiba? I need to talk to you.

We'll have to be quiet. Dolly's sleeping.

Dolly?

Move!

I said, move!

This video is so unclear.

I doubt they have anything more.

Nonsense. I'm sure they do.

This can't be it.

I heard a strange sound that night.

Someone definitely knows.

How much are they demanding?

Twenty-five lakhs.

What?

What the hell! Where will we get so much cash from?

Z/A.

Bloody hell, Zaira!

No.

I'm telling you we'll get screwed.

We'll get sucked in deeper.

The cop who was here--

Bro, not again with your rubbish!

Are you for real?

Can't you see this is getting out of hand?

Let's cough up the cash and close the chapter.

No blackmailer repeatedly asks for hush money.

He knows we can go to the cops.

Snap out of your ridiculous dream sequence.

Earth calling Zaira.

Fine. Let's go with your plan.

You must have already convinced Dolly.

We didn't speak about this at all.

Of course!

You have all the answers.

She's walked out of that house.

Oh God.

Did you tell her about the video?

I didn't have the heart.

Listen…

maybe the blackmailer hasn't even seen your faces.

Why should we all risk it?

Let's not meet for a few days.

I think that's best.

We still have to collect Ishi's ashes.

Dolly moved out.

What?

Good morning, ma'am.

Zaira madam said that you like oat pancakes

with maple syrup.

So, I'll get started. Would you like some tea?

Where's Zaira madam?

Thank you.

-Hello? -Where the heck are you?

Did you even get any sleep?

I had to leave, Dolls.

I had an early meeting.

Whatever.

Do you have nail polish remover at home?

Yes, it's on the bathroom shelf.

Okay, bye.

-Are you at Ishi's office? -Yes. What's up?

We didn't find fingerprints.

Do you think they were wiped off?

We can't tell that for sure, madam.

Forensics receives guns with smudged fingerprints 90 percent of the time.

How do we determine that?

So, we don't know whether Ishi shot herself

or someone else shot her.

Yes, madam.

And the blood on the saree?

We'll know by the afternoon.

Keep chasing them until we find out.

Copy.

"Vedaaya Counseling."

SALARY RECEIVED. LUNCH DATE?

ABSOLUTELY!

Who's in charge here?

Prateek sir. That's his cabin.

I have no details of how much she owed you.

I'm sorry, I can't help you.

I'm really sorry.

I'm really sorry--

Sir, we'll speak later.

From the day I joined, I was looking for a way out.

You've found it.

There's no one to stop you now.

We hated her.

Passed around memes about her.

Even prayed,

"Take her…

or us."

He heard our prayer.

He took her.

And she deposited 35 lakhs in each one's account.

We completely misunderstood her.

Each one of us.

It wasn't like her at all.

Exposes never rattled her.

But this time, oddly, she got affected.

The world saw her as a PR consultant.

But we know she was more than that.

Our clients are greedy.

And Ishi ensured they got rich

as quietly and quickly as possible.

She made sure her clients made tons of money.

The bastards.

Bribing bureaucrats.

Pushing their legislative agendas.

Evading tax by parking their money in offshore accounts.

She did it all.

But her sudden death…

Whom did Ishi meet that day?

Where all did she go?

Anything you can remember.

Don't worry.

It will stay confidential.

She went somewhere

she shouldn't have gone.

To that creep… Businessman Rajiv Sikand.

What is it now?

Sorry, ma'am. A photographer is here to meet you.

-So? -See this.

And Meher isn't here.

-She asked me to call you urgently. -Anjali!

-Now her phone's switched off. -Manage it!

I'll be there soon. Handle him.

-And keep trying Meher's number. -Sorry, ma'am.

Nonsense.

Shit.

Ashes of the deceased.

May God be with you.

Dolly.

Ishi.

Zaira should have been here.

Why didn't she come?

Her show is in two weeks.

She should have taken out time.

Talk to me, Dolly.

I'm not going back.

That's it.

Tell me. What happened?

Disagreement.

The usual.

But this time, it's ten times worse.

Hey, come on.

Ranveer and I constantly disagree.

But we've never walked out of the house.

It's Mumma.

You know, I just don't understand…

how can Zaira behave as though nothing's happened.

It's the right thing to do.

To avoid suspicion.

And is it right to wait around for someone to bump us off?

Don't we need to know who we are up against?

I'd known her a long time.

And I regret it.

Regret…

it's a fine emotion.

Befitting a man, too.

I could've sued her.

But hiring her was my decision.

To do what?

Come on, Inspector.

You expect me to spill the beans?

You should.

Especially, to reduce the regret of knowing her.

I met Ishi the morning of her death.

But at the time she died, I was on a flight.

Your schedule doesn't interest me.

Really?

So, I'm not a suspect in Ishi's murder.

Great.

However, what the two of you met for…

interests me.

Because Ishi's expose really squeezed your balls.

You were completely rogered.

Wasn't your office raided?

Money.

I owed her a commission.

In business, one's word is paramount.

We operate within a Code of Ethics.

While every businessman has secrets…

not every agent is capable of safeguarding them.

She was.

Like a bank locker.

But she suddenly changed.

And she wanted to cash in all of her deals.

She became the type of woman she never was.

Or maybe I misunderstood.

What type of woman?

An A-class bitch.

Someone who would backstab for money.

And I wasn't the only one she was blackmailing.

There was a guy at Dalal's party…

who she had a spat with.

I was leaving for the airport when I saw them.

And I stopped for a few minutes.

The fellow seemed troubled.

Who was he?

I'd never seen him before.

What time was this?

Maybe 10:30 or 10:45.

The argument took place at the party?

It was outside.

In the clubhouse lawns.

Any other details?

The man was wearing a suit.

It was dark, so I didn't notice much.

But since then,

my faith in God has increased.

Why is that?

A bitch who did wrong was met…

with her perfect end.

Isn't God great?

He's never shouted at you, right?

No.

And neither has he hit you.

Never.

Is there someone else in your life?

Mumma!

You can tell me.

This isn't funny. Why are you laughing?

Couples quarrel all the time, darling.

Everything will be fine.

You should return home.

I would if I still had one.

Don't say that, darling.

Ishi's death is still heavily weighing--

Not everything is about Ishi, Mumma!

You always said your friends were your family.

You hardly missed Kapurthala.

It may upset you,

but the fact is that tough times test a person's resolve.

And to run away at such times is not right.

What is your point?

Do as you please.

But be ready for the consequences.

It's all my fault.

-Is she here? -No, ma'am.

I've been trying to call her, but she hasn't answered.

I want her here now.

How dare she disappear one week before the show!

-Maybe her foot has-- -I don't care about her fracture, Anjali!

Do you understand?

I'm sorry, ma'am.

Where's the photographer?

This comes here and completes the design.

Hi, we spoke on the phone yesterday. I'm sorry I'm late.

You are short-staffed. I should've come earlier.

Vihaan.

Zaira Sheikh.

I hope you weren't too busy with something important.

I'm really sorry to pull you out like this.

Documenting declining vulture population.

It was very important.

But now that I'm here…

Real work.

This is real too.

Anyway, I believe the show is in a week.

Nervous? Excited?

Nervous.

Confused.

And to handle this last-minute chaos…

I need you.

I aim to please. Anything.

Okay.

Please don't get me wrong. I say things, but--

It's fine. Mr. Vihaan, you shoot dying--

Let's skip the formality, please.

You document dying vultures,

and here, I'm giving you this big opportunity

to shoot our latest bridal couture collection.

-Exactly! What luck! -Isn't it?

Yeah.

Have a moment?

Let me show you a unique fabric. Come.

You can't get one thing right!

You are irritating! God!

The valet will bring your car soon, ma'am.

I was about to report it.

It's been two days,

no one has claimed it.

No one has even cleaned it.

Maybe someone at the party had too many shots

and shot right into the lake.

I'm claiming it. Is that fine with you?

Of course, ma'am.

Dolly, I've got Vinayak's car.

-What? -Yeah.

I'm parking it in my spot. We're sure to find some clue.

Please be very careful.

I know. I'm being careful.

It's not allowed.

What?

I'll explain the dos and don'ts. Sit in the car.

You might want to tell me this though. What are you doing with this car?

Because it's my friend's…

who has been missing for two days.

So, if you have his car,

you must also know where he is.

Is there a problem?

Are you okay?

Is this guy bothering you?

He has parked in my spot.

Does this car belong to you?

What are you grinning about? As if she's your bae!

Move out of her spot, or I'll call security.

I would've hit him with my shoe had he misbehaved.

Damn it!

No, no, no.

Why did you call Mumma?

Why did you leave home?

Would you prefer that I lie to you?

Is that what you wanted?

Aditya is distraught without you.

-He's very sad. -And you're his spokesperson?

Can't he call me directly?

Dear…

let us consider a new way.

What?

IVF,

sperm donation.

Baldev has a friend in Luxembourg who's a top doctor.

Mom, you're mistaken.

A child isn't the solution for everything.

Sorry, but my priority isn't taking the Dalal legacy forward.

I could make a list too…

of all the compromises I've made.

Am I valued only if I have a child?

And for Adi, too?

Even I'd like us to be a happy family.

But I won't compromise anymore.

There's no turning back for me.

So, please keep my parents out of it.

Please.

Move!

Let go!

I said, move!

Ma'am… sorry.

They have no idea.

What? Who?

Meher's parents.

They said she left for work in the morning.

-What? -She wanted me to call you.

I told her you were busy, but she insisted.

And since then, her phone's been off.

Doesn't she have a second phone

with a bird-squawking ringtone?

Yeah, ma'am. That squawking one.

I tried calling that number a zillion times too.

But she's not answering.

Okay, thanks.

Yes, Dolly.

Zaira, you need to come home now.

Okay.

What is this?

If you ask me… diamonds.

Shit!

I'll need to consult Aditya.

Dolly, this isn't an 80's Hindi film about smuggling diamonds.

And you stealing a dead man's car… what was that?

A stunt!

He scared the shit out of me. Don't say this to me!

You know what…

Great! Storming out!

Storming out?

I have to live with the guilt

of having killed a man.

If that has slipped your mind,

then go to hell!

-I’m sorry, Dolly, I-- -No, no!

I don't want sympathy.

Let me remind you how our troubles started in the first place.

Secrets that Ishi kept from us.

Who knows what they are!

But it was reason enough to kill her.

And me?

Not knowing who he was, purely on gut instinct, I killed him.

Bloody hell.

And now, we have a parking lot maniac. A blackmailer.

Now this! And God knows what else!

And both of you are trying to be Sherlock.

Follow the trail, solve the mystery!

Do you know why I left home?

Because we had kept a secret. Of Aditya's infertility.

And it made our lives miserable--

It just ruined everything!

There's only one way…

to get out of this mess.

That we hide nothing from each other.

No secrets, for God's sake!

Seriously!

We're in this together, guys.

It's tragic that you two don't see that.

-Dolly-- -Let her--

Let her leave.

Did you know about Aditya?

The guy from the parking lot…

do you think he's connected to Meher?

I don't know who knows who!

But…

don't you think it's strange that she's suddenly gone missing?

I don't get it, Saiba.

Hi.

Let's go.

-How was school? -Good.

Did you eat your apple?

-Did you find your pink pen? -Yes, Mumma.

You did?

Come on.

Hello. What's the update?

Confirmed. It's Ishi's blood on the saree.

-Positive? -B positive.

Her blood type.

How many samples did they test?

I don't know, but--

Tell the fools to scan every inch of that saree.

-Tell them-- -Checking for traces of other blood.

There's another update.

There's a lady called Meera Yadav who Ishi has willed everything to.

I spoke to Ishi's lawyer.

What's this new Meera Yadav angle?
