The Indian Detective

Previously, on The Indian Detective.

You've been suspended for a month.

A month?

We still on for tonight? Yeah.

No friggin' way. Yeah.

Is everything okay? Not okay. You must come now.

I thought you had a heart attack!

It felt like a heart attack. It was gas.

Very bad gas. Have we met?

Priya Sehgal. Will you help me? Yes. I mean, yeah. Yeah!

We're here about the chai-wallah Vimal.

He confessed to a murder he didn't commit.

Now why would he do that?

Maybe he's covering for somebody.

I can arrange for the charges to be dropped.

For a price.

You're up late, bro.

You sound awfully calm

for someone who just lost $50 million.

I didn't lose it. The DEA seized it.

After you failed to get it across the border.

Yeah, what choice did I have? Toronto PD got tipped off.

How was I supposed to know

the DEA would find it last night?

I need results, Amal. Not excuses.

I have obtained the deed to the Annapuri land.

That's miraculous.

I need you to secure that $50 million.

Bro, we have no product left to sell.

Certainly not 50 million dollars' worth.

I will get the product.

You just need to get it across the border.

No more excuses,

Understand?

All right.

Gopal and Amal Chandekar: the Terror Twins.

Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Papadum;

born seven minutes apart and now they live an ocean apart.

Do you know that the word "thug"

actually comes from the Hindi word thag,

which means "thug," so, as they say in India,

Thag Life.

Nice job, there, Constable Fourth Class.

Idiot.

Wait here, Cat.

He's in there?

Hold this for me...

for insurance.

What do you mean you're "quitting"?

I've done some shitty stuff for you,

and I'm not doing it anymore.

You see,

I tell you when you're done.

Now give it over. No.

Said give it over!

Not until you promise to let me go.

I don't promise anything.

They you can't have it.

I said give it over, you bitch!

No, no, no!

Miss! Miss!

Ki-coo-rooker-cooooooo.

The rooster says, "Good morning, Bapa."

Every morning,

"Coo-ca-coo-roo, coo-ca-coo-roo."

Mister Stanley is not a morning person.

Mornings should start at noon.

You can't eat breakfast at noon.

Why can't I eat breakfast at noon?

Who's decided that?

Did you two get married and I didn't get invited?

Lovely fresh chai for you, Bapa.

No coffee?

Never. I miss coffee in this house.

Oh, hey. Do you guys recognize this?

Do you know what this is?

A trisula.

Do you mean a trident?

A trisula is a sacred weapon of the god Shiva.

Shiva? The one with all the arms?

No. Shiva is the God of destruction.

God of dance.

God of that, you know, that Natraj?

He gets better in the afternoon.

I'll, ah, I'll see you guys later.

Bapa, what about breakfast?

Oh, I'm okay. You ladies enjoy it.

Tsk.

Because of you, he called you a lady

and me also a lady and can you stop doing this

"Coo-ca coo-roo, coo-ca coo-roo"?

Ladies don't do that. They do other things.

Hey, I just want to ask you something...

What? Really?

I think you're cute, too, but, uh...

Ah...

I... I gotta be straight with ya,

India's a little bit much for me

and I don't want to break your heart...

Thank you.

For being straight. Hi. Dr. Sehgal.

I am Doug D'Mello. Stanley's son.

The detective from Toronto. Correct. In Canada.

Uh, I was wondering if I could, ah, see your daughter?

So you can break her heart?

Oh, no, no, no. That was, ah... I was...

I was having a conversation with myself about my pet...

ferret 'cause I'm a goofy white kid from Toronto.

You know... yeah.

Hi, Doug.

Hi, Priya.

Come in.

Sure. Thank you.

Very handsome man.

He liked me.

I'm pretty sure he liked me, I mean,

I'm not a good first impression guy.

I'm more of a third and fourth impression kind of guy.

I don't know.

I kind of grow on you, you know? Like... like a nail fungus.

You know, you don't know until a couple weeks later.

I think he liked me.

Want some coffee?

Oh, I would, ah...

No, I'm good. Thanks.

What do you need?

Um, I need to know if you know what that is.

Where'd you find this?

Last night when we got out of the rickshaw

there was a dude standing by the tree

watching us and he dropped it. What'd he look like?

About five-seven, light skin, kinda pretty.

He had a gold tooth.

Dad, Doug's going to walk me out.

Your mother said to be home by 7 o'clock.

You mustn't keep Vihaan waiting.

I'll be here.

Love you.

Nice to meet you, Dr. Sehgal.

Take care... of your ferret.

Right!

Why are you asking me about this?

Because I saw the same symbol back in Canada.

Where?

Back of a truck meant to be smuggling heroin into Toronto.

What does it mean?

The trisula is a sacred weapon.

Of the God Shiva, the guy with all the arms, right?

But also, it's the insignia of Gopal Chandekar,

one of the most vicious crime lords

in the whole of Mumbai.

That truck could have been his! It could be.

He has a twin brother in Toronto.

I was right. I knew it! Damn it.

But, Doug,

Gopal Chandekar is a very dangerous man.

And his brother Amal is a vicious killer.

Vicious is fine. I can deal with vicious.

You mean that? Hell, yeah, I mean that!

This guy tries to smuggle tons of heroin into Toronto

and he got me demoted.

I mean the hell out of that! Let's go.

Where are we going? Just get in.

This is another case of mine.

Cathy Jordan, age 22, University of Toronto graduate.

Her parents asked me to help locate her.

She flew to Mumbai six weeks ago and went missing.

Until last night,

when she called the police station

to report that her friend was killed at a paan shop.

Alison Howell, 24. Cedar Rapids, Iowa.

Why are you showing me this?

Because Cathy said that the man who shot at her

was in his mid-20s,

small build and with a gold tooth.

Don't worry, Mr. Marlowe.

No one would dare touch you in my company.

Let's make it quick.

My flight's due to leave in an hour.

I left this place nearly 20 years ago,

still can't seem to scrub off the humiliation.

Being poor is nothing to be ashamed of, Chandakar.

Easy for you to say. You're rich.

Wasn't always.

Yeah, but you were never this poor.

You didn't have to do what I did to get ahead.

You have no idea what I had to do.

Did you get my money?

Not yet.

But I have persuaded the billionaire

to give me this land.

I don't want to know how.

That skyscraper will destroy this place

once and for all

and give me the one thing you have that I don't...

legitimacy.

Not without my $50 million, it won't.

We've done your dirty work in Toronto.

You don't want to disappoint us.

You think I'm afraid?
