It Happened In Calcutta (2020) s01e03 Episode Script

[Title Montage]
Did he ask you?
He has no guts.
I wish I could ask him.
Shall I?
- Yes.
- I am going.
[Ronobir] Prom night!
A night that makes
every girl believe
that her Prince Charming will
come and take her to a fairyland.
For her happily ever after.
But Kusum was different.
She had grown up
believing that there
will never be a
Prince Charming for her.
So how about your dieting?
Paro's dress is backless.
And Subho's is short.
The competition is tough.
I want a chocolate shake.
Come!
One chocolate shake please!
[Kusum humming a tune]
Oh! That's good.
What?
Whom are you thinking of?
Ronobir?
You are hallucinating with hunger.
Because these are the symptoms.
Don't teach your mother to fk.
I know it all.
These are the symptoms of love.
Stupid, are you mad?
[Charulata] You
are not the only girl.
Half the college loves him.
I am not like half the college.
I am not interested in him.
All he's interested is in
He's a rascal and I
Fine.
It's infatuation. It will pass.
Let's see.
By the way, prom night
is an important night.
[Charulata] Ronnie goes with her
for the past four years.
The one he wants to go to bed with.
Bed?
You mean sex?
Oh! Poor little virgin.
Are you sacred?
[Ronobir] I wished
Kusum stuck to her belief.
I wished I am not
a Prince Charming
who is trying
for a spot in her heart?'
I was just very good
at pretending that I was.
[Kusum] Ratan, I don't like it
[Ronobir] If Ratan does it,
it feels good.
But it's me, sweetheart.
It's your lucky day.
Hi, Charu!
- Will you go to
the prom with me? - Me?
I am not going.
Oh come on. If you don't
come with me, then who will?
To bed?
Half the college.
Look, this is your first
prom night.
And no one forgets the first night.
And with Rono. Definitely not.
I understand
what you are talking about.
It's my first time.
And yours? Tenth?
100? 1000?
You only want sex. And you
will get many girls for that.
Virgins! So boring, right?
[Guitar strumming]
- I'll go right?
- Yes.
I will see you.
You refused Ronnie right away.
You have two days. Think over it.
Girls love to be with
Ronnie for the first time.
You go ahead. I can't spend a
minute with him. The whole night?
Impossible!
- If you get a chance, why not?
- [Sujata] Hi!
Are you Ronobir's friend?
- Depends.
- Yes, we are.
- Sujata.
- Kusum. Charu.
I am Ronnie's friend. Close friend.
So it's his birthday. And I wanted
to throw a surprise party for him.
Where will I find Ronnie's friends?
[Kusum] Paromita.
She is a good friend too.
Thank you!
Ronnie has a very hot girlfriend.
She's so exotic, right?
I don't care.
So you won't go for
the birthday party?
I will but not for Ronnie.
I will go for her. I like her.
Ah! You will go for the birthday
party for Sujata, right?
Not because you want to find out
how much Ronnie likes her, right?
Charu, you are too much.
[Ronobir] No matter
how much you pretend.
You and I, both knew
that you will come
for that party only for me.
Mine is winning.
Wait and watch.
One lap is still pending.
Let's see.
Ronnie, what's your birthday plans?
We could have gone for an outing.
No. You know my ideal birthday.
Home sweet home. Lots of alcohol.
And you fkers.
By the way, we can replace
you with alcohol.
We are not going anywhere.
We will order more alcohol.
Oh yeah that reminds me.
Abhinandan.
- Is my crate ready?
- [Waiter] Yes, sir.
That's my man.
- He got it.
- [Cheering]
Hey! He did it.
- Yes.
- Superb!
[Indranill] I had a great
time at the pool.
[Writik] I'm dying to have a good
bourbon on the rocks.
[Subhash] I want to sleep now.
[Writik] But we won't let
you sleep.
[Ronobir] What a fking good
actor! I love John Travolta.
[Subhash] Where is the switch,
Ronnie?
Living room to your right.
Don't drop the crate.
Alright, boys.
[Ronobir] It's just us.
And no one else.
- Yes.
- [Music playing]
[All] Surprise!
[Ronobir] O God!
I don't like surprises!
As if someone wants to catch you
red-handed in the
name of surprises.
And when you are surprised.
Just smile and be normal.
[Sujata] Happy birthday, baby!
- Sweetheart!
- Come.
[Paromita] Happy birthday, Ronnie.
Thank you!
- Thank you so much for coming.
- Hi, cutie!
- Thank you.
- Happy birthday, Ronnie.
[Gasps]
So guys, Ronnie has just returned.
But his world famous punch
is ready at the bar counter.
Really!
Ronnie told me his secret
a few years ago.
It has lot of alcohol and juice
for namesake.
[Chuckles]
- Prats, can I have some music?
- Prats is here.
[Music playing]
- Is she his girlfriend? - Why are
you so possessive about him?
He is not your boyfriend.
I would love to be his girlfriend.
[Girl 1] Oh please! Come on.
Sujata is so hot.
- Sujata!
- Hmm.
You know how I feel
about surprises, don't you?
Of course, she knows. Right, Suju?
Because the probability of you
getting surprised is more.
Right?
Seriously!
All girls are talking about you.
Your murder is planned.
There are almost four groups.
Anyway, I think I'm going to go
and have the famous Ronobir punch.
Ahole!
She definitely has a crush on me.
[Chuckles]
[Ronobir] Heartbeat!
You know this usually happens
when you see someone you want
to see after a really long time.
But in my case my heart
was beating because
I was seeing two
people I wanted to see
but trust me not
at the same time.
- Hi!
- Happy birthday!
Thank you.
Sujata invited me for the party.
- Really?
- Who is she?
Who?
[Music playing]
I don't know.
Maybe some friend of his.
I met her at the college.
You weren't there then.
I think you were somewhere else.
I don't feel they are friends.
Do you think they are friends?
Ratan will come to pick
me up by 9 O'clock.
I know your party will go on
till late. But I'll leave by 9 pm.
And you planned it all.
Cute.
Well, now that you are here,
have a drink!
Ah! I don't drink.
- Thanks.
- Come on. It's my birthday.
Just one drink.
No.
- [Sujata] Hi, Ronnie.
- Hi!
Won't you introduce
me to your friend?
Of course.
Kusum, that's Sujata.
Sujata, this is Kusum.
We met at the college. Hi!
- Hi!
- Sujata.
Kusum.
- Well, I will make you meet
the rest of the gang. Come. -Sure.
[Glass clinking]
[Clears throat]
It is now time to raise a toast
to the man of the hour, Ronobir.
[Crowd cheering]
Rono is very special
person in my life.
Since childhood, he's been
one of my closest friend.
Tomorrow is Ronnie's birthday.
And I am going back
to London very soon.
So I thought
I must organise this
birthday bash for Ronnie
before I return to London.
Surrounded by all
his lovely friends.
[Chuckles]
I have never in my entire life
been so close to anyone.
And if you are Ronnie's friend
then you must be knowing
Ronnie is close to perfection.
Guys!
Sujata! Or as I call her Suju.
She is my special
friend since childhood.
[Ronobir] We have
been together for a while now.
She likes me a lot too.
People feel we are already engaged.
Come on, guys. It's just rumours.
Suju is very dear to me.
And she's such a lovely lady.
-[Cheering]
But Sujata doesn't have the
engagement ring on her fingers yet.
So technically guys,
I am still fking single.
[Crowd cheering]
Well, jokes apart.
[Ronobir] I want to talk to you
about that lovely lady
whom anyone would oblige
to get a ring for her.
That lovely lady is our very own.
Kusum Ganguly.
Where are you?
[Ronobir] Trying to sneak away.
Boys and girls.
The first female
MBBS student of our college.
The first female
doctor of our college.
You just don't top the class.
You are also riding
against the tide.
You inspire us.
Doctor Kusum Ganguly, guys.
[Crowd cheering]
[Ronobir] Alright. What do we want?
Do we want more speeches
or more music?
Are we leaving?
Will you still remain his doormat?
Or are we leaving, Suju?
Prats! Please don't create a scene.
[Sujata] People are watching.
[Sniffles]
Fk these people.
You are not coming back again.
[Pratiksha] Listen!
You are just a ticket for him
to get out of India. That's it.
He doesn't even
Why are we even standing here?
Let's leave.
Sister, if you don't leave now, you
will always be a doormat for him.
Let's leave.
Fk it! I am going.
Prat!
[Gasps]
I am coming too.
You must be telling
the same thing to
all the girls, right?
Are you stupid? Look around you.
At my birthday party,
in front of the whole college.
In front of my best friends.
In front of that girl
who wants to get engaged to me,
you feel I am fooling you?
[Song playing]
You know I like you.
I need to talk to Sujata.
I don't want to hurt her.
I don't want to be that man.
[Guitar strumming]
So I will go in for five minutes.
I'll talk to her.
Ronobir] I took care of one girl.
And now it was mission next.
[Ronobir] For fk's sake!
Suju!
- Suju!
- [Pratiksha] Come on, sister.
- [Pratiksha] Sister, you are
not stopping. - [Ronobir] Suju.
- Sister, let's go.
- Suju!
Sister, get inside the car.
Get inside the car. There's no
need to listen to him. - Wait.
- Why would she listen to me?
- Come in, sister.
Why would you want me
to talk to her?
After all,
you have instigated her against me.
And you pretend
to be a liberal, a feminist.
Please for God's sake, shut up!
You just hate all men.
And that's the truth. Admit it.
Ronnie, these things are useless.
I had suspected this
a long time ago.
But today, you proved it,
Ronobir Chatterjee.
[Pratiksha] You raised a toast
for that girl and danced with her.
Wow! Very nice.
But did you ever
acknowledge Sujata for anything?
You don't love her.
She is an easy path for you
to go to London,
you big fking fker.
Well, she's got it all figured.
[Clapping]
Good job.
So I guess.
She's right. I have used you.
But I figured this out
when I was five years old.
And maybe you were 3 years old.
[Ronobir] I knew I would be
a doctor someday. And
Suju would be in London. She'd
be the means for me to go there
Yeah. I was far fking sighted.
I know why you threw this party.
[Chuckles]
I know why you went
to my college to invite them.
As she put it in your mind
that I am cheating on you.
And you wanted to see with whom
I was cheating on you.
You know what?
Suju, even if she wasn't here, it
wouldn't have made any difference.
As the fact is
that you never trusted me.
So
- Unfking believable.
- Ronnie.
Do you really have
nothing to do with her?
Just for the record.
No.
You are suggesting that after
whatever we saw over there,
you have nothing
to do with that girl.
Just a moment. What did you see?
I admire that girl.
She is the first female MBBS
of our college. Miss feminist.
And I admire a lot of other women.
I just don't love them.
Because I love you.
And Prats, that girl is into
a serious committed relationship.
- She has a boyfriend.
- Really?
Does she really have a boyfriend?
You are stupid. I tell you.
I will tell you.
Ah!
Ronnie!
Ronnie!
Yes!
[Chuckles]
[Sujata] Let's get married.
Oh my God!
Kusum. I can't believe it.
He kissed you.
Forget the kiss. He was
going to propose to you.
You will go with Ronobir
to the prom, right?
He's in love with you.
- Understand this, Kusum?
- I don't' know.
I don't know, Charu.
I don't I am confused.
I am going down.
Ratan will be here soon.
I'll see you in college.
Do you really believe him, sister?
What about that girl?
And where is the guy?
[Ronobir] Actually, Prats.
Turn around.
That is Ratan, Kusum's boyfriend.
Suju, can I go drop her?
And don't go without
saying bye to me. Okay?
[Sujata chuckles]
[Sigh of relief]
- [Ronobir] Ratan!
- [Pratiksha] Look at me, sister.
Fking legend Ratan.
[Sighs]
Always on time.
Saved my fking life.
[Ronobir] Hey, Ratan! Hi!
- [Ratan] Ronobir! - Why didn't
you come for the party?
Huh.
Did you see me at any party
for the past five years?
- [Chuckles]
- Right.
Come in and have a drink. Come.
No. I am fine.
You look happy.
There's lipstick on your face.
[Ronobir] Actually,
a special girl kissed me.
[Ratan] Good for you.
Ratan. On time.
Kusum, shall we leave?
[Ronobir] Take them home safely.
[Car door closes]
[Car passing]
[Sighs]
Go. Bye!
- Bye, Prats.
- Ronnie.
Love you!
Love you too.
[Ronobir] I had won. I won.
Both the girls were happy with me.
What else do you want in life?
Someone said the truth.
All is fair in love and war.
And this was a fight for love.
