Shantaram (2022) s01e04 Episode Script
Bad Medicine
[LAWYER] The men who
robbed the bank wore masks.
No one in the bank saw their faces.
Far as the victim, the gun
that shot him was never found.
No residue on you or your clothes.
Despite giving you a
right bloody kicking,
the officers that arrested
you could attest to nothing
but that you were giving
the victim CPR at the time.
They can't put you in the bank.
They can't put you with the gun.
They can't even put you
with the money. [CHUCKLES]
[LIN] What was his name?
The cop.
Constantine Floris.
Sounds Greek.
Connie? Con.
Or Gus. Sometimes they use Gus.
I should write his wife a letter.
Are you mental, Dale?
They told me you're off the heroin.
I'm clean.
First time in a long time I
can see everything straight.
Then see your way through this.
Why would an innocent man write
the victim's wife a letter?
One of the things we've got going for us
is that you haven't
put anything in writing.
A man was killed.
Am I supposed to just act
like that never happened?
Listen, Son.
You sound like you're
in a bit of a state.
You've made some mistakes.
It's to your credit you feel bad
about whatever those alleged
mistakes might have been.
How much is my mum paying you?
Exactly what I'm worth.
Help me help you not balls
the rest of your life up, Son.
That's what your mum has paid me for.
[JUDGE] In the matter
of the State v. Conti,
Mr. Conti, how do you plead?
[SNIFFLES]
[NO AUDIBLE DIALOGUE]
- Guilty.
- [PEOPLE MURMUR]
I'm guilty.

[SEAGULLS SQUAWKING]
[GIGGLES]
[LIN] A man can live in a city with
a broken heart and mangled pride.
But to survive in a slum, he
must unfurl it for all to see.
And if I did that here,
maybe I'd get a second chance,
a reckoning with my fate,
but I didn't know that then.
I treated it like another
sentence to be served,
and in my ignorance,
I decided it was my job to fix a
thing that they didn't see as broken.
[SIGHS]
[QASIM] Aha! Assalamu alaikum, Mr. Lin.
[SPEAKING HINDI]
keeping you busy, huh?
I'm doing what I can. Trying, anyway.
No one expects any more from you.
We are lucky to have you with us.
[SPEAKS HINDI]
Sonam.
- What on earth are you doing?
- Minister Pandey.
Deputy Minister.
Not for long. Rujul is khalaas.
Walidbhai sends his blessings.
You would be wise to accept them.
- [SONAM SPEAKS MARATHI]
I can't treat it if I can't see it.
[IN HINDI] No, I can't do this with you.
Did you go to the hospital?
- [WHIMPERS]
- [SPEAKS HINDI]
[IN HINDI] Why don't you understand?
I am a married woman and can't do this!
- [CRIES]
Please do not touch me!
This white man is crazy.
- [SONAM SHOUTING]
- [LIN] Okay, Sonam, why are you here?
[SONAM] Somebody, please help me!
[PRABHU] Lin needs you
quickly. [SPEAKS HINDI]
[BOTH WHISPERING, INDISTINCT]
- [IN HINDI] Where are you taking her?
- She's got work to do!
- [GROANS, SPEAKING MARATHI]
- [PARVATI SPEAKS HINDI]
[SPEAKING HINDI, CRIES]
She won't let me examine her again.
[IN HINDI] Parvati,
please explain to him.
He is touching me everywhere. He
was telling me to take off my sari!
is this? She's a married woman.
You cannot be making her naked,
alone, the two of you in this hut.
- I told you this last time, na?
- Then why did she come back?
If they're her bloody rules,
why doesn't she stick to them?
- Or bring her husband with her?
- Her husband is a working man.
He is spending many hours
on the building site.
He cannot just drop
everything and come to you.
[IN HINDI] When you two have
stopped arguing, we are ready.
Look at her wound again. Please.
[IN HINDI] Show me, Auntie.
It looks redder and
worse than last time.
Redness is spreading all around.
red and much worse than before.
[SONAM GROANING]
[SONAM, IN HINDI] I can't eat or sleep.
I'm sweating all night
and my stomach hurts.
Also lots of sweating and stomach pain.
sweating and pain in stomach.
The infection's spread.
All she had to do was go to
the hospital and get a shot.
[IN HINDI] You did
not go to the hospital?
- I went three times to the hospital
- Hmm.
but you know how it
is. No one will see me.
[SPEAKING HINDI]
She tried three times to
go, but they didn't take her.
times, but they did not take her.
What do you mean, "not take her"?
I'm sending people there 'cause I
can't give them what they need here.
You are sending them there
and then they are sending
them here back to you.
Did you hear what I just said?
If she doesn't get
antibiotics, she's gonna die.
You know what? Fuck this.
Parvati, tell Sonam we're
taking her to the hospital.
- I need you with me. And Parvati, you too.
- Linbaba, I have work to do.
- Okay, I'm coming. I'll help, of course.
- [LIN] I'm going to fix this.
Madam. A pleasure to meet
you. I am Akash Pandey.
Thank you for meeting with
me on such short notice.
Congratulations on your new
position, Minister Pandey.
Nothing is decided as yet.
I hear it is a formality.
As I hope our business will be also.
The development bid I
represent for Sagar Wada
had already been approved
by Minister Aadekar.
Four skyscrapers overlooking
the Cuffe Parade bay.
Thirty floors, four flats a
floor, at five crores each.
That's almost 200 million US
with a plan how best to serve
the local community and economy.
Naturally, we planned to
reward Rujul very generously.
And in his sad absence, those
rewards would now come to you.
I think you would find us
to be very appreciative
partners, Minister Pandey.
I'm sure. But
Well, madam, there is one tiny problem.
And what is that?
Sagar Wada is spoken for.
Spoken for? By who?
[WALID] Namaste.
I'm Walid Shah.
Nice to meet you, Mr. Shah.
I heard you were beautiful.
The stories really don't
do you justice, huh?
Khaderbhai's always had a, uh,
appreciation for the fine things in life.
- [KARLA CLEARS THROAT]
- Myself,
I've always been a
little rougher in my ways.
Now, I want to respect Khaderbhai.
But if he makes any moves on
my new friend Minister Pandey,
it will mean war.
And fine things never
survive a war, madam.
Mr. Shah, I represent a consortium
[CHUCKLES] Don't, huh?
We all know who we are.
We all know what roles we have to play.
Yours is to go and tell
Khaderbhai Sagar Wada is mine.
- [CHATTERING]
- [BABY CRYING]
- All good, boss.
- [ANNOUNCER ON PA] Mr. Ford. Mr. Ford.
[GRUNTS, SPEAKS HINDI]
Come, come, come.
Sit, sit, sit. Come,
come. Sit, sit, sit.
So busy I was today, but I have
cleared all my patients just for you.
- Oh, we appreciate it.
- Please, sit.
So, Sonam here has a
seriously infected wound.
She needs IV antibiotics.
She's been here three times.
She keeps getting turned away.
See, very busy I was.
But now I'll fit her in.
Only for you, I'll fit
her in. [SPEAKS HINDI]
baksheesh to see her?
This is a government
hospital. Supposed to be free.
Do you have a physician's referral?
- How do I get one of those?
- Only from a doctor elsewhere.
Who's gonna charge her for it.
I need a referral or money, or
go and wait outside with the rest.
This is the system. Look, even
she can understand as well.
So you're just going to let her die?
What kind of fucking doctor are you?
We are seeing 600 patients every day.
My staff and I have
not been paid in months.
Who are you to tell me
about being a doctor?
- Get out now, you and your faltu friends.
- All right.
- I'm gonna bring security right now.
- Listen.
Uh, sorry, sir. [SPEAKS HINDI]
There are many police here.
Big trouble. Come, quick.
[HEARTBEAT THUMPING]
I, um I didn't want to wake you.
Thank you.
How do you feel?
Better.
It's, um
less every day.
Thank you, Sebastian,
for coming to get me.
I had no one else I could call, so
Why would you call anyone else?
I will look after you,
Lisa. You You know this.
I think it's time I went
back to my own place.
Whatever you want.
You know how I feel about you, Lisa.
I do.
And I care about you too.
But But I'm just
It's been a long time since I even knew
how to feel like that about anyone.
E-Even myself.
Will you come with me to my place?
I don't wanna be there on my own.
[CHUCKLES]
[LIN] I'll hustle until we get enough
money for Sonam's medicine. Deal?
[PRABHU] Deal, Linbaba.
[SPEAKS HINDI]
[CHATTERING]
[WHISTLES]
Few weeks ago, I was one of you.
I made all the mistakes
that you're about to make.
So if you want to avoid that and
save some money, come talk to us.
The more of you that
come, the cheaper it'll be.
Good food, good price, good
hotel, very sexy business, boss.
- Come, come, come.
- Come, come.
[FOOTSTEPS CLOPPING]
Did Rujul have to die?
Once we knew, we could have confronted
him and brought him back to us.
Now we're back to square one.
I supported Rujul for 20 years.
What kind of message would I
send if I allowed his betrayal?
Tell me about the new minister, Pandey.
He's well-respected in
the community and ministry.
Devout Hindu, wife of
12 years, two children.
It was arranged. She had
money. He had a career.
Her father funded his campaign.
Still does. Nothing stands out.
Dig. All men have secrets.
Let's see if his are useful.
He is the key to Sagar Wada.
How did it make you
feel when Walid appeared?
Frightened.
And he knew it. Enjoyed it.
I felt very small and
alone in that moment.
- [PRABHU] See you tomorrow morning.
- Thank you. Bye-bye.
[MUTTERS] Here.
Nah, nah, nah, nah, no.
I need all of it, mate.
I need to buy medicine. That's
what I came down here for.
Linbaba. Doctoring is your
business, okay? Not mine.
My business is saving
moneys to marry Parvati.
You're joking.
Your plan won't even work, boss.
Okay, even if I am giving you,
where are you getting the medicine?
You're not having prescription,
ration card, ID card, no doctor's note.
Illegal medicine.
Nobody is knowing you, trusting
you, or selling it to you.
- Prabhu, Sonam is gonna die, for nothing.
- Lin, no one will blame you.
I will blame me.
You're fucked.
Lin, where are you going?
To buy medicine.
There is no shame in being afraid.
Courage is being scared
and acting anyway.
You will never be alone, Karla.
[SIGHS]
And our developers, do they
need to be further appeased?
Good. Did they like the ghazel singers?
I didn't know you'd be there,
with such a strange bedfellow.
I now know why you like Mr. Ford.
What do you want with him?
[SIGHS]
Well, maybe I just see someone
who needs help to find their path.
You pretended not to know me.
You didn't want him to
know we're connected.
We've kept our relationship a
secret for your protection, not mine.
[KEYS JINGLE]
[KEYS CLINK]
[LISA] Stinks of dope in here. [SNIFFS]
Take what you need and we can go.
Stay with me.
Leave this shit behind.
No, we have to clean it up.
- Lisa, there's no need
- I have to clean this up.
I have to.
Do you understand?
Hey, Ramesh, right? You remember me?
I was here the other day
with Abdel Khader Khan.
Listen, I need you to
get a message to him
that Lin Ford wants to
talk to him urgently.
Can you do that?
- Yes. I will.
- All right. Good man.
Sorry.
I didn't
It's okay.
If If you need it, if
a little will help, then
Whatever you need.
I need you to say no.
I need you to fucking say no!
[PANTS] Tell me when I'm wrong!
Stop me! Just fucking stop me!
- Why won't you
- [SCREAMS]
- [WHIMPERS, PANTS]
- [BREATHES HEAVILY]
Don't just say yes to me, Modena.
- You wanna be there for me
- [PANTING]
you want there to
be anything between us,
then don't just say yes to me.
Be strong for me.
Never let me touch that shit
ever again, no matter what.
I promise.
Let's get the fuck out of here.
Mr. Lin.
Lin, it's good to see you.
- Yeah, thank you for seeing me so quickly.
- You told Ramesh it was urgent.
Yeah, look, I'm sorry
for bringing this to you,
but I need medical supplies.
I keep sending people to the hospitals,
but they get no help.
Not unless they pay.
I'm not looking for a
handout. I'll pay my own way.
And what, uh, exactly
are you asking for?
I don't have a connection for
black market medical supplies.
And you assume I do.
Because Why?
I'm a gangster?
- No, I just I th
- [CHUCKLES]
[CHUCKLES] That was a joke.
[ABDULLAH CHUCKLES]
Most people don't know this,
but when I first came to Bombay,
I lived in a jhopadpatti
just like Sagar Wada.
I will make this connection for you.
Thank you, Khaderbhai.
Abdullah will make the arrangements,
and, uh, he'll get in touch.
Do you know when?
It's just, there's this
one woman who's gonna die
if I don't treat her quickly.
Then we must hope, inshallah,
that, together, we can avoid this.
It was nice seeing you, Lin.
- Thank you.
- Mmm.
["YOUR SORROW IS KILLING
ME" STARTS PLAYING ON RADIO]
I could take him now. Why wait?
The more desperate Lin becomes,
the more grateful he will be.
[IN HINDI] Turn it up.
[VOLUME INCREASES]
[LIVELY MUSIC PLAYING ON JUKEBOX]
My supplier insists
half payment up front,
and then Modena brings you the
goods and you give him the rest.
How do I know you will deliver?
How long will my business
last if I cheat, huh?
True.
Hard to run a business when
you're in small, small pieces, huh?
[LAUGHS]
You know, you are a long way from
home to be making threats, Raheem.
Buy it, or don't buy it. I
have plenty other business here.
But if you could find
what you needed in Lagos,
you wouldn't be in Bombay. You know?
[RAHEEM] So you like
these fellows, Lisa?
You think I should trust them?
Absolutely.
Do you know what we were talking about?
No idea at all.
But I trust them.
They're my best friends.
Hmm, I don't know.
But I'm going to trust you, I think.
You are too beautiful to lie, huh?
That would break my heart.
All right.
I'll take one kilo as a test run.
If it's good, we can do more.
Beautiful.
- [KARLA SPEAKS FRENCH] Ça va ?
- [SPEAKING FRENCH] Oh, bien, bien, bien.
[SPEAKS HINDI] Coffee.
You know, Lin mentioned this man to me.
Something to do with you and
Lisa and the Palace, I think.
And now it seems that you and Lisa
are on the outs and Lin is gone.
After all this time,
you are going to start asking
questions that don't concern you?
No, no, no, no. No.
Ac-Actually, yes. Just one.
Are you all right, ma chère?
I'm fine.
Lin is still here.
He's living in the slum.
Excuse me.
You just can't leave me like
like this. Karla, please. Details.
[TOILET FLUSHES]
Spare me the lecture.
I don't blame you for leaving. I just
wanna know you're all right.
How big of you.
You know how superior that sounds?
You should come back.
You're not what I need.
And those two are?
- I thought you wanted to change, Lisa.
- Fuck off, Karla.
You've never trusted
me and you never will.
I'm not using. I'm not hooking.
I'm working really hard to stay clean.
Modena's helping me with that.
He actually means it
when he says he loves me.
They're gonna get you into trouble.
And you didn't?
Seen the papers lately?
And you're just sad, Karla.
Deep down, you're just sad.
And I don't wanna be sad, I
wanna have fun. Remember that?
To laugh, joke, smile?
That's what I want.
[KARLA] Prabhu, right?
Yes, and you are Karla Ma'am.
I'm looking for Lin.
Can you take me to him?
I am in the middle of tourist
guide business. Sorry, huh?
How about you guide me to Lin?
Hmm. [SPEAKS HINDI]
[CHATTERING]
giving lots of dollars to build.
- Why?
- He's a good man.
Good friend of Sagar Wada.
My good friend first, but now
everyone is loving him too much, huh?
Big doctor he is now,
healing everyone all day long.
[IN HINDI] Can we get chai nashta
my good friend, Karla Ma'am.
[IN HINDI] How dare
you show your face here!
Where did you take Parvati all day?
- Hospital only, with Linbaba.
- Hospital only. Please!
I chose to go. Don't blame him.
You two were roaming
around Colaba the whole day.
We did nothing wrong.
[PARVATI] We were helping
to save a life, Mother.
[PARENT] We were looking
for you since morning.
Ask anyone. We have
been looking for you.
- [ARGUING CONTINUES]
- [PARENT] You should have told us.
I didn't realize it
was illegal to visit.
- I paid your friend Prabhu to bring me.
- [VILLAGER 1, INDISTINCT]
Prabhu told me you gave
them money to rebuild.
I assume that's the money I gave you.
- Yep. [SIGHS]
- [VILLAGER 2] Linbaba.
No wonder you're so popular.
[LIN CHUCKLES]
What are you still doing here, Lin?
A few days ago, you were
desperate to get out,
and now you're playing doctor.
These people helped me
when no one else would.
Look, someone came after me here.
Zhou, I guess, looking to finish me off.
That's how the fire started.
And how is that your fault?
That little boy's mum
is dead because of me.
I owe them.
I got one thing I can give
them, as useless as I am at it.
Aren't you worried
about someone else coming
about your passport situation?
I'm fucking terrified.
But Lakshmi was scared too, so I
don't get to use that as an excuse.
[PEOPLE CLAP, CHEER]
[LIN] I saw the paper.
That Rujul fella's dead.
Do I have to feel guilty
about that as well?
No.
"No," because you don't care,
or because it's got
nothing to do with us?
Both.
Rujul Aadekar was a corrupt official.
He was hurting a client
of mine's business.
I wanted to warn him.
That's as far as it goes.
The papers say he got robbed.
Rich man in the wrong
part of Bombay. It happens.
What are you doing here, Karla?
I got a shock seeing
you the other night.
I assumed you'd turn up at Reynaldo's.
- When you didn't, I just
- Easy. I might start to think you care.
Guess I probably deserve that.
Although, to be fair, you did
give me the money to leave.
And then you gave it away.
Yep.
What were you doing with Khader Khan?
Smoking, drinking tea.
For a man who doesn't want trouble,
you keep interesting company.
Does that include you?
I hope so. I'd hate
not to be interesting.
Yeah, I can't see that happening.
Too bloody mysterious.
- I should be getting back.
- [CHUCKLES]
Poverty looks good on you, Lin.
If you get really down and
out, you could be irresistible.
Don't be a stranger.
[BYSTANDER 1, IN HINDI] You're
going to make her better, Dr. Lin?
[BYSTANDER 2] Why
isn't he doing anything?
[BYSTANDER 3] Can't
you give her medicine?
[CHILDREN CHATTERING]
[CHILD SPEAKS MARATHI]
Yay! [SPEAKS MARATHI]
we doing? Getting them in the bowl?
- [CHILD 2] You can do it!
- [CHILD 3 SPEAKS MARATHI]
- Yeah! Whoo!
Yay!
So close.

Go on, Jitendra, old mate.
[MOANING CONTINUES]
[PRABHU] Linbaba, you are home?
Linbaba.
Lin.
Yes, Prabhu, I'm home.
You've already eaten, Lin?
Uh, no, not yet.
Good, because Ravi is bringing
you ekdum special food now.
Bombil. This is Bombay duck.
Most famousest of fishes.
Eat. Eat, na?
It looks amazing, Ravi. Thank
you. You didn't have to do
Sorry I am trying to hurt you.
[NO AUDIBLE DIALOGUE]
[LIN] Maybe Karla was right.
- Maybe I courted danger.
- [SIGHS]
Because danger in the here and now
was one of the few things strong enough
to help me forget the past.
[PRABHU] See, Johnny?
He's been going again.
Huh, huh.
How are you this morning, Lin?
Peachy.
- See, he's saying this
- Huh.
but he's meaning
the opposite. I can tell.
And he's already been making
motion once this morning. I saw him.
Jitendra was right.
What are you two going on about?
Linbaba, your neighbor
Jitendra is telling us
last night, you have been to
the water three, four times.
- Huh.
- Keeping him up all night, you are.
[SCOFFS] Jitendra's one to talk.
Him and his missus were
going at it hammer and tongs.
[JOHNNY LAUGHS] Jitendra
and Ratna's sexy time
is most famous in Sagar Wada.
You tell, you are having loose motion?
Yes. All right, Prabhu,
I've got the shits.
Are you happy now?
- Ah!
- I can't help thinking it was that fish
you and Ravi brought me.
Arre, Lin, no.
He caught that fish himself
as a peace offering to you.
He Very fresh. He brought it
to me to help him bring to you.
Okay. It wasn't the fish.
I recommend a drinking of chandu chai.
It will make your motions
harder and good color again.
Mr. Lin, you must come with me.
He's a very danger man,
Lin. Murderous fellow.
It's all right, Prabhu. I know him.
How are you knowing him?
Don't worry about it.
If anything happens to you with
this man, I cannot help you.
What is the problem?
No, there's no problem.
I am only wondering
where you're taking Lin.
He's my partner and we are having
business in the side gully of Regal.
What is your name?
Prabhu.
You must be a big man,
asking me questions.
Maybe I should call you "Prabhubhai."
Maalik of Colaba Market.
Sarkar of Sagar Wada?
- Go now, back to your backside business.
- Easy. Abdullah, he's my friend. Please.
You want your medicine or not?

I can get you all of this.
One lakh. 50,000 rupees.
I don't have that much money.
I was hoping that you could
that we could make some kind of deal.
Discount?
These people have nowhere else to turn.
[CHUCKLES]
You want me to help these people,
who who'd turn their backs on us?
Forcing us to live here like animals?
No. I'm a businesswoman.
This is the price.
At least give me the
antibiotics and the IVs.
[SPEAKS HINDI]
Give him the penicillin and two IV kits.
I'll be back for the rest
when I raise the money.
- Could you pull over?
- What?
I need the toilet.
- Toilet?
- Yeah.
In there.

I want to speak with you first.
Sitaphal. My favorite.
Then try chikoo and the sweet lime.
What, so that's it? Try to kill
a guy and then eat ice cream?
Should've let me. There'll
be trouble down the road.
It wouldn't bother you?
Before I came here, in
Iran, killing was all I knew.
Just didn't know why. I
went where I was pointed.
I had two brothers,
gone now.
It's a bad thing to be an only brother.
Now Now I know what I fight for.
Khaderbhai.
Yes.
Khaderbhai is a man
who makes the future.
Us, we wait for the future to come.
But he dreams the future,
plans it, and makes it happen.
[ABDULLAH CHUCKLES]
When Khaderbhai sent me
to you, I was not sure.
What kind of man is this gora
who wants to be a doctor? [LAUGHS]
But you saved my life today.
And I saved yours.
Khaderbhai saw something true with us.
Perhaps we really are
looking like brothers.
Abdullah, I can't get involved
in whatever it is you guys do.
I need Khaderbhai to understand
that I need to stay invisible.
No trouble. No attention.
What you want matters little.
People like us, our destiny
has already been written.
[LIN] I really do need to
get these supplies back.
[ABDULLAH GRUNTS, SPEAKS HINDI]
Ravi.
Have you been feeding me shit fish?
This one
is for you too.
Good one, mate.
Are you telling Qasim Chacha?
- No.
- Why?
'Cause I'm hoping one day
maybe you won't hate me.
Yeah, okay. Great.
How do you say, "You

[FAMILY SPEAKS HINDI]
[KHADERBHAI] You think
Walid sent Rafiq after you
because of Sagar Wada?
No.
Just because the bhais and
their councils make peace
does not mean the soldiers forget.
Rafiq hates me.
He saw me alone, and he
tried to take his chance.
He would've done it, if not for Lin.
He saved your life.
Risked his own to do it. No hesitation.
But he would not let me kill Rafiq.
[CHUCKLES] He's a strange man.
You like him?
I do. He has honor.
He got what he needed from Ruby?
Only a small part. He
doesn't have any money.
Not for what he needs.
What price would I put
on your life, Abdullah?
This is the gift he gave us
today, this new brother of yours.
[CHUCKLES]
And Rafiq?
Do I finish it?
No.
Not now.
If war with Walid must come, we
cannot be the ones who started it.
What if he tries again?
Make sure no one finds his body.
You're a hard man to find.
Abdullah. What are you doing here?
Khader sent me back to Ruby.
What does he want for it?
Perhaps Khaderbhai knows that
your pride will get in the way
of all the good work you are doing.
Do you want it or not?
Now you are also part
of the plan, isn't it so?
[LIN] I knew I'd made
a deal with the devil,
but whatever it was, I
wanted to be part of it.
A man in my position
should have been afraid.
Instead I was excited.

No one in the bank saw their faces.
Far as the victim, the gun
that shot him was never found.
No residue on you or your clothes.
Despite giving you a
right bloody kicking,
the officers that arrested
you could attest to nothing
but that you were giving
the victim CPR at the time.
They can't put you in the bank.
They can't put you with the gun.
They can't even put you

[LIN] What was his name?
The cop.
Constantine Floris.

Connie? Con.
Or Gus. Sometimes they use Gus.
I should write his wife a letter.
Are you mental, Dale?
They told me you're off the heroin.
I'm clean.
First time in a long time I
can see everything straight.
Then see your way through this.
Why would an innocent man write
the victim's wife a letter?
One of the things we've got going for us
is that you haven't
put anything in writing.
A man was killed.
Am I supposed to just act
like that never happened?
Listen, Son.
You sound like you're
in a bit of a state.
You've made some mistakes.
It's to your credit you feel bad
about whatever those alleged
mistakes might have been.
How much is my mum paying you?
Exactly what I'm worth.
Help me help you not balls

That's what your mum has paid me for.

[LIN] A man can live in a city with
a broken heart and mangled pride.
But to survive in a slum, he
must unfurl it for all to see.
And if I did that here,
maybe I'd get a second chance,
a reckoning with my fate,
but I didn't know that then.
I treated it like another
sentence to be served,
and in my ignorance,
I decided it was my job to fix a

- Then why did she come back?
If they're her bloody rules,
why doesn't she stick to them?
- Or bring her husband with her?
- Her husband is a working man.
He is spending many hours
on the building site.
He cannot just drop
everything and come to you.
[IN HINDI] When you two have

Look at her wound again. Please.

What do you mean, "not take her"?
I'm sending people there 'cause I

You are sending them there

Did you hear what I just said?
If she doesn't get
antibiotics, she's gonna die.
You know what? Fuck this.
Parvati, tell Sonam we're
taking her to the hospital.
- I need you with me. And Parvati, you too.
- Linbaba, I have work to do.
- Okay, I'm coming. I'll help, of course.
- [LIN] I'm going to fix this.
Madam. A pleasure to meet
you. I am Akash Pandey.
Thank you for meeting with
me on such short notice.
Congratulations on your new
position, Minister Pandey.
Nothing is decided as yet.
I hear it is a formality.
As I hope our business will be also.
The development bid I
represent for Sagar Wada
had already been approved
by Minister Aadekar.
Four skyscrapers overlooking
the Cuffe Parade bay.
Thirty floors, four flats a
floor, at five crores each.
That's almost 200 million US
with a plan how best to serve
the local community and economy.
Naturally, we planned to
reward Rujul very generously.
And in his sad absence, those
rewards would now come to you.
I think you would find us
to be very appreciative
partners, Minister Pandey.
I'm sure. But
Well, madam, there is one tiny problem.
And what is that?
Sagar Wada is spoken for.
Spoken for? By who?
[WALID] Namaste.
I'm Walid Shah.
Nice to meet you, Mr. Shah.
I heard you were beautiful.
The stories really don't
do you justice, huh?
Khaderbhai's always had a, uh,
appreciation for the fine things in life.
- [KARLA CLEARS THROAT]
- Myself,
I've always been a
little rougher in my ways.
Now, I want to respect Khaderbhai.
But if he makes any moves on
my new friend Minister Pandey,
it will mean war.
And fine things never
survive a war, madam.
Mr. Shah, I represent a consortium
[CHUCKLES] Don't, huh?
We all know who we are.
We all know what roles we have to play.
Yours is to go and tell
Khaderbhai Sagar Wada is mine.

So busy I was today, but I have
cleared all my patients just for you.
- Oh, we appreciate it.
- Please, sit.
So, Sonam here has a
seriously infected wound.
She needs IV antibiotics.
She's been here three times.
She keeps getting turned away.
See, very busy I was.
But now I'll fit her in.
Only for you, I'll fit
her in. [SPEAKS HINDI]
baksheesh to see her?
This is a government
hospital. Supposed to be free.
Do you have a physician's referral?
- How do I get one of those?
- Only from a doctor elsewhere.
Who's gonna charge her for it.
I need a referral or money, or
go and wait outside with the rest.
This is the system. Look, even
she can understand as well.
So you're just going to let her die?
What kind of fucking doctor are you?
We are seeing 600 patients every day.
My staff and I have
not been paid in months.
Who are you to tell me
about being a doctor?
- Get out now, you and your faltu friends.
- All right.
- I'm gonna bring security right now.
- Listen.
Uh, sorry, sir. [SPEAKS HINDI]
There are many police here.
Big trouble. Come, quick.
[HEARTBEAT THUMPING]
I, um I didn't want to wake you.
Thank you.
How do you feel?
Better.
It's, um

Thank you, Sebastian,
for coming to get me.
I had no one else I could call, so
Why would you call anyone else?
I will look after you,
Lisa. You You know this.
I think it's time I went
back to my own place.
Whatever you want.
You know how I feel about you, Lisa.
I do.
And I care about you too.

come, the cheaper it'll be.
Good food, good price, good
hotel, very sexy business, boss.
- Come, come, come.
- Come, come.
[FOOTSTEPS CLOPPING]
Did Rujul have to die?
Once we knew, we could have confronted
him and brought him back to us.
Now we're back to square one.
I supported Rujul for 20 years.
What kind of message would I
send if I allowed his betrayal?
Tell me about the new minister, Pandey.
He's well-respected in
the community and ministry.
Devout Hindu, wife of
12 years, two children.
It was arranged. She had
money. He had a career.
Her father funded his campaign.
Still does. Nothing stands out.
Dig. All men have secrets.
Let's see if his are useful.
He is the key to Sagar Wada.
How did it make you
feel when Walid appeared?
Frightened.
And he knew it. Enjoyed it.
I felt very small and
alone in that moment.
- [PRABHU] See you tomorrow morning.
- Thank you. Bye-bye.
[MUTTERS] Here.
Nah, nah, nah, nah, no.
I need all of it, mate.
I need to buy medicine. That's
what I came down here for.
Linbaba. Doctoring is your
business, okay? Not mine.
My business is saving
moneys to marry Parvati.
You're joking.
Your plan won't even work, boss.
Okay, even if I am giving you,
where are you getting the medicine?
You're not having prescription,
ration card, ID card, no doctor's note.
Illegal medicine.
Nobody is knowing you, trusting
you, or selling it to you.
- Prabhu, Sonam is gonna die, for nothing.
- Lin, no one will blame you.
I will blame me.
You're fucked.
Lin, where are you going?
To buy medicine.
There is no shame in being afraid.
Courage is being scared
and acting anyway.
You will never be alone, Karla.
[SIGHS]
And our developers, do they
need to be further appeased?
Good. Did they like the ghazel singers?
I didn't know you'd be there,
with such a strange bedfellow.
I now know why you like Mr. Ford.
What do you want with him?
[SIGHS]
Well, maybe I just see someone
who needs help to find their path.
You pretended not to know me.
You didn't want him to
know we're connected.
We've kept our relationship a
secret for your protection, not mine.

- I have to clean this up.
I have to.
Do you understand?
Hey, Ramesh, right? You remember me?
I was here the other day
with Abdel Khader Khan.
Listen, I need you to
get a message to him

talk to him urgently.
Can you do that?

Sorry.

Mr. Lin.
Lin, it's good to see you.
- Yeah, thank you for seeing me so quickly.
- You told Ramesh it was urgent.
Yeah, look, I'm sorry
for bringing this to you,
but I need medical supplies.
I keep sending people to the hospitals,
but they get no help.
Not unless they pay.
I'm not looking for a
handout. I'll pay my own way.
And what, uh, exactly
are you asking for?
I don't have a connection for
black market medical supplies.
And you assume I do.

I will make this connection for you.
Thank you, Khaderbhai.
Abdullah will make the arrangements,
and, uh, he'll get in touch.
Do you know when?
It's just, there's this

if I don't treat her quickly.
Then we must hope, inshallah,

What are you still doing here, Lin?
A few days ago, you were
desperate to get out,
and now you're playing doctor.
These people helped me
when no one else would.
Look, someone came after me here.
Zhou, I guess, looking to finish me off.
That's how the fire started.
And how is that your fault?

I owe them.
I got one thing I can give
them, as useless as I am at it.
Aren't you worried

I'm fucking terrified.
But Lakshmi was scared too, so I
don't get to use that as an excuse.

[LIN] I saw the paper.
That Rujul fella's dead.
Do I have to feel guilty
about that as well?
No.
"No," because you don't care,

nothing to do with us?
Both.
Rujul Aadekar was a corrupt official.
He was hurting a client
of mine's business.
I wanted to warn him.
That's as far as it goes.
The papers say he got robbed.

part of Bombay. It happens.
What are you doing here, Karla?
I got a shock seeing

I assumed you'd turn up at Reynaldo's.

Guess I probably deserve that.
Although, to be fair, you did
give me the money to leave.
And then you gave it away.
Yep.
What were you doing with Khader Khan?
Smoking, drinking tea.
For a man who doesn't want trouble,

I hope so. I'd hate

- [ABDULLAH CHUCKLES]
I can get you all of this.
One lakh. 50,000 rupees.
I don't have that much money.
I was hoping that you could
that we could make some kind of deal.
Discount?
These people have nowhere else to turn.
[CHUCKLES]
You want me to help these people,
who who'd turn their backs on us?
Forcing us to live here like animals?
No. I'm a businesswoman.
This is the price.
At least give me the
antibiotics and the IVs.
[SPEAKS HINDI]
Give him the penicillin and two IV kits.
I'll be back for the rest
when I raise the money.
- Could you pull over?
- What?
I need the toilet.
- Toilet?
- Yeah.
In there.
- Here?
- Yes.
- [CHUCKLES]
- Hold that.
Mate. This a toilet?

- [GRUNTS]
[IN FARSI] You're dead, sisterfucker.

Today you die, Rafiq.
- [GRUNTING]
No one has to die here today.
[BREATHES HEAVILY]
We need to be somewhere else. Now.

[SIGHS]
Mate, I need to get these supplies back.
And I will take you.
Faster than if you walk, but
I want to speak with you first.
Sitaphal. My favorite.
Then try chikoo and the sweet lime.
What, so that's it? Try to kill
a guy and then eat ice cream?
Should've let me. There'll
be trouble down the road.
It wouldn't bother you?
Before I came here, in
Iran, killing was all I knew.
Just didn't know why. I
went where I was pointed.
I had two brothers,
gone now.
It's a bad thing to be an only brother.
Now Now I know what I fight for.
Khaderbhai.
Yes.
Khaderbhai is a man
who makes the future.
Us, we wait for the future to come.
But he dreams the future,
plans it, and makes it happen.
[ABDULLAH CHUCKLES]
When Khaderbhai sent me
to you, I was not sure.
What kind of man is this gora
who wants to be a doctor? [LAUGHS]
But you saved my life today.
And I saved yours.
Khaderbhai saw something true with us.
Perhaps we really are
looking like brothers.
Abdullah, I can't get involved
in whatever it is you guys do.
I need Khaderbhai to understand
that I need to stay invisible.
No trouble. No attention.
What you want matters little.
People like us, our destiny
has already been written.
[LIN] I really do need to
get these supplies back.
[ABDULLAH GRUNTS, SPEAKS HINDI]
Ravi.
Have you been feeding me shit fish?
This one
is for you too.
Good one, mate.
Are you telling Qasim Chacha?
- No.
- Why?
'Cause I'm hoping one day
maybe you won't hate me.
Yeah, okay. Great.
How do you say, "You
will get better now"?
[SPEAKING HINDI]
Sonam.

[KHADERBHAI] You think
Walid sent Rafiq after you
because of Sagar Wada?
No.
Just because the bhais and
their councils make peace
does not mean the soldiers forget.
Rafiq hates me.
He saw me alone, and he
tried to take his chance.
He would've done it, if not for Lin.
He saved your life.
Risked his own to do it. No hesitation.
But he would not let me kill Rafiq.
[CHUCKLES] He's a strange man.
You like him?
I do. He has honor.
He got what he needed from Ruby?
Only a small part. He
doesn't have any money.
Not for what he needs.
What price would I put
on your life, Abdullah?
This is the gift he gave us
today, this new brother of yours.
[CHUCKLES]
And Rafiq?
Do I finish it?
No.
Not now.
If war with Walid must come, we
cannot be the ones who started it.
What if he tries again?
Make sure no one finds his body.
You're a hard man to find.
Abdullah. What are you doing here?
Khader sent me back to Ruby.
What does he want for it?
Perhaps Khaderbhai knows that
your pride will get in the way
of all the good work you are doing.
Do you want it or not?
Now you are also part
of the plan, isn't it so?
[LIN] I knew I'd made
a deal with the devil,
but whatever it was, I
wanted to be part of it.
A man in my position
should have been afraid.
Instead I was excited.
