He says without taking his eyes out of the window, WALI KHAN (CONT'D) I know how they found out...It all makes sense now... She looks at what he has been watching. A row of televisions in the electronic shop window. All showing the bombing and then the airports closed in Europe because of volcanic ash. The agents wonder what has made him stop. They talk on the walkie-talkie. Dipankar wonders what has happened. WALI KHAN (CONT'D) I need to make a call... Wali Khan says with panic all over his eyes and starts to look for a phone booth. He starts to walk in the opposite direction. Zoya pleads with him,

43. ZOYA Just come back...We can figure this out later... The agents wonder what to do? DIPANKAR Maybe he knows...Take him down... Wali Khan walks fast through the market looking for a phone. Zoya tries to reason with him. WALI KHAN Carry on without me...I am not going to leave... The agents start to close in when he sees a phone and starts to run towards it. He almost reaches the phone when the first agent comes bang in front of him. Wali Khan looks at him and at the gun that he is concealing. AGENT You need to come with us...

Wali Khan does not wait for the man to finish his sentence he lunges for his gun and fires in the air. There is pandemonium in the market. The cops turn and run.

They run into the crowd. 68 INT. TRAWLER - NIGHT Aslam's head is pulled back. Half dead. Bhanja stands above him with a fish hook dripping with blood. Bhanja himself looks possessed and demonic.

They begin to pick up speed racing down the pier. Aslam can barely keep his head up when he feels a huge impact. Glass shatters all around him. He feels his head spinning. He tries to focus and opens his eyes to see the car spinning out of control. He sees the stunned expression in Saleem Pathan's face. Then he sees the reason for their surprise. The reason for the impact. Rudra Pratap Singh spins his car deftly maneuvering both cars so that they go into an unending spin. He shoots as his car pivots around taking out the driver of the car behind Aslam's car. That car loses control and finds itself in the water. The car in front slams its brakes. Bhanja and the goons come out to find a hail of bullets finding their mark. Rudra Pratap looks like a man possesed when he sees Bhanja. He slams his break and breaks free from the spin deftly even as Aslam's car continues to spin. He fires at the windshield and shatters the glass with his fist. Bhanja looks at his adversary. The two men start to fire at each other when Goldmans's goons pull Bhanja away and take him away in the car screaming to be left behind. Rudra Pratap turns his attention to spinning car. He shifts gears. Slams the acclerator and pummels into the spinning car. It flies and lands on its side. He gets out of the car. Gun on his side. Pulls open the door even as Bhanja and Saleem Pathan try to recover from the shock. He wrenches the half dead Aslam out. Pushes him into this car.

The report confirms that a young boy, a victim of the Sheraton Bombing has been found. His mother is dead and they are looking for a father, any relative. A number flashes for any information regarding the parents. Wali Khan keeps looking at the photograph of his son. His eyes well up with tears.

The man in charge a Mr. Yadav pulls out a document alleging some kind of discrepancy with accounts in Singapore with his sons business etc and allowing them the right to search the premises. Ashwini's wife Sumitra comes out looking harassed and worried. ASHWINI Nothing to worry about...Can you make some tea? These gentlemen will be here for sometime... She looks at him and then understands that he is serious. She goes inside. The men proceed to tear the place apart. He watches calmly. The main door suddenly opens and Mishra comes in. He proceeds to feign ignorance and surprise on the on going raid.

47. He demands to see the documents and begins to make the correct noise ordering that the Ex - Head of RA&W be left alone. ASHWINI (CONT'D) Calm down...Sumitra, bring another cup of tea please for Mishra, he looks tired...Obviously he has been spending sleepless nights... How come you've dropped by... Mishra shows him photographs of Wali Khan and Zoya at the Empress Market. MISHRA They walked away instead of making contact...You really need to start talking, as it is only a matter of time before we piece everything together...Send them a message that they can all be brought back... Ashwini laughs. ASHWINI The offer is tempting but the problem with temptation is that it can sometimes kill you, destroy you... Mishra wonders what the Ex - Head is talking about when his wife enters with the tea and some Bengali sweets. ASHWINI (CONT'D) Now see what my wife has done... She should have known better than to tempt you with Bengali sweets... After all aapko sugar ka problem hai na? These Bengali sweets could kill you... Just then a man enters with a manila envelope from Ashwini's desk and embarrassingly hands it to Mishra. He opens it and finds photographs of him and a Bengali woman in extremely compromising positions. Mishra can feel his blood pressure rising. RUDRA PRATAP SINGH (V.O.) We all had our weaknesses...The question was what were willing to do, what lengths were we willing to go... 73 INT. GARAGE - DAY Wali Khan slowly walks across the garage. Zoya is asleep in the chair beside the makeshift bed where Aslam lies recuperating.

48. He opens the door of the garage and moves to the car. RUDRA PRATAP Even I thought that I would be able to save her...Protect her... Keep her away from harm...I would look into her eyes and become blind to the death warrant that I was issuing in her name...I would get lost in her hair and just never find the words to explain the futility of our future...I would feel the shudder that ran through our bodies and it would bring alive a sense of hope...A reason to live... Wali Khan keeps looking at him. A side that he has not seen before. RUDRA PRATAP (CONT'D) You know as well as I do that they will kill him even if you surrender... He still says nothing. RUDRA PRATAP (CONT'D) You want your sons life to mean something then help me finish what you started... WALI KHAN What was her name?
