Rajan
is pleased to see his family there to help him out. He invites himself into
their car to go home for the night, leaving the driver there alone to work on
the car. He heard of the results of the pageant and congratulates
Simran, then asks where Kajal and Kunal are. Thus begins the lying. Sameer says
they had company with them, and the other couple is keeping them company. Having
little choice, they drive back to the farmhouse to drop Rajan off. However they
are unable to carry out the rest of their plan as Rajan insists that Simran go
inside with him for the evening, and takes back the keys to the car. Kunal and
Kajal arrive to report success on their part, but are dismayed to hear about the
delay with the other half of the mission. Seeing as how neither the characters
nor the screenwriter can think of a good way to end this scene, they just cut
out of it over to the next day.
Simran
sits in her room and laments all the trouble she's gotten her friends into. Yep,
had she called the cops we'd not be stuck in this situation now! Thanks Simran!
Sameer is angered by this remark and tells her not to talk that way. They settle
back to deciding where to hide the body until they can complete the train tracks
mission. Sameer notices that there is an absolutely filthy, fetid, stinky pool
at the house that no one ever goes into. It's so polluted, you can't see into
the water at all. Sameer suggests they hide the body there until they can get
the keys to the car and take care of business. On a side note, Sameer's
declaration of "Of course! That's it! That's it!" is delivered with
Shatnerian
conviction. It's quite moving.
That evening the boys take the body from the car and set it down next to the
water. They unwrap the plastic and tie a heavy statue to Ajit to ensure his body
sinks. With that, they dump him into the water.
Now
this my friends, is quality filmmaking. You can see the shot of the water above.
Now, tell me if you think the shot to the right here could by any possible
stretch of the imagination be the same pool. I'm also pretty sure the original
pool is vaguely round in shape, yet while underwater we have the lane lines
usually found in rectangular pools. Nicely done.
We cut to the police station where Tanya is trying to file a missing person
case. Inspector Khanna listens to her story, but seems to think she is
overreacting. He tries to catch her in some kind of lie by twisting her words
and confusing her. She does produce a photo of Ajit, and in this picture we can
see him lighting a cigar with a white lighter bearing his initials. Tanya also
provides the license number for Ajit's car, prompting a transition to the lake
where that very car is being drudged up.
The police look at the car, and notice the license matches. They also see
that other than the fact the car is in the lake, it doesn't seem to have
suffered any other damage. They decide there has been some foul play, and begin
the investigation.
Back at the farmhouse, Simran sees the article about the recovered car in the
newspaper and begins to fret. She is convinced that the cops will be able to
track down the body to their house and throw them all in jail. Sameer tells her
that they will attempt to carry out the train tracks plan that evening if it
will make her feel better. As this discussion takes place, there is an army of
children outside who have lost their basketball in the murky pool. Rajan (who is
sitting at a table with Inspector Khanna) orders Vikram (remember him?) to get
the ball out so the kids will go away. As Vikram gives Rajan mildly dirty looks
he starts poking at the ball with a stick. As he does this, Sameer and Kunal
wander out and look on with horror. To make matters worse, Vikram's keys fall
out of his pocket and into the water as he leans out over the edge. Rajan tells
him to jump in and get his stuff, and the ball while he's at it. We get another
hilarious comparison shot of the water from above, and the water below as Rajan
jumps in to get his keys.
