We
start to see some flirty sparks going between Alisha and Arya as he hands over
his camera and heads off to explore the compound. He begins to conduct a
"thorough" search of the warehouse. He ignores the table full of drug testing
equipment and instead spends a few minutes climbing around on the big piles of
crates while waving around a tiny flashlight. After having a quick UTL on top of
the crates, he climbs down and starts noisily throwing around some milk crates
in another UTL. He finally notices the table of drug stuff and looks surprised
as he touches all of it with his bare hands. As he's tasting the drug residue on
his fingers (sigh) he has a dual USS flashback to when the Pres was talking
about the contents of his salt shaker.
We
leave this scene of intrigue to join Alisha and Atul, who are apparently
traveling without brains today. They are moseying around taking random pictures
when they see Yousan and his posse sitting at a secluded table talking loudly
about the drug deal. Alisha comes over and asks them if she can take their
pictures, then starts doing so without their permission. Yousan stares at her in
utter disbelief, then sends one of his brothers over to take her camera. He does
so, and pulls out the film. He then roughly hangs the camera back on Alisha's
neck while she calls for Atul. Atul is busy standing in front of a field with
his arms sticking out to his sides, and doesn't notice her at first. (sigh) This
is the "first class agent" from RAW. Okay.
Atul finally hears Alisha's pleas and comes over to investigate. He starts
shoving Yousan's brother and asking what the heck does he think he's doing. The
brother calls Atul a "bloody carrot" then grabs him. The other guys at the table
join in, with two holding onto Alisha and the rest holding onto Atul.
We break from this excitement to Ansari and his goons celebrating the deal
with Brian. Sam Hans comes boldly striding in accompanied by his loud theme
music. Sam's a little mad at these guys since they tried to frame him for
Shilpa's death. He warns them to strike from the front next time. Sam claims he
knows those were fake cops (how?), and the goons tell him that the whole thing
was the buyer's idea to eliminate loose ends. Sam thinks they're lying, oh it's
all so tense. Brian gets him to calm down and tells him that there's no room for
sentiments in business, and he should just let this go. Brian makes them shake
hands and Ansari leaves.
Back
to Yousan and his group, hustling Alisha and Atul down a path to a secluded
area. They force Atul to kneel, and prepare to execute him. However Arya shows
up out of nowhere and begins beating everyone up. Yousan takes offense to this
and joins in himself, using a fighting technique I've not seen since "Gupt."
Ansari sees this happening and comes down to stop the fight. Ansari makes Yousan
and his men apologize, but Arya isn't in a forgiving mood. Yousan departs
without further incident, and Ansari takes his leave as well. However, as he and
his buddies are going Alisha starts to take a closer look at them. In a USS, we
see her remembering them from the night she saw them loading Shilpa's body into
their trunk. Atul gets his own flashback to some files he saw at RAW HQ about
Ansari and his pals.
Atul
and Alisha tell Arya everything they know. He starts doing another "I'm figuring
everything out all in my head and man is it great!" sequence of flashbacks where
we cram as many faces into one screen as we can.
In order to keep things moving, we cut back to the embassy. Tanya brings an
urgent fax from New Delhi in to Ambassador Sarin's office. He reads it and looks
very upset. He calls Mr. Parmar into the office. Tanya asks him if something is
wrong, and he simply nods and says yes. Parmar comes into the room and asks
what's up. Sarin tells him that they've been asked to provide records for the
entire staff of the embassy as well as any Indian nationals living in the city.
This is to be kept secret and done as quickly as possible. Parmar asks why they
need to do this, but Sarin tells him that it's a need to know kind of thing.
Parmar looks sheepish and apologizes.
