Don't worry.
It won't hurt.
That's it.
Here you go.
Our teacher has gained consciousness.
Come soon.
Raagi!
Ask your mom about that other thief.
Mom, can you tell me what the
other thief looked like?
Mom? Mom! Mom!
Mom! Hey, let me go!
Thanks.
Sir.
I'm surprised.
Even your station doesn't have
a single CCTV camera.
Actually, this is no big deal.
I'm in charge of my company's logistics.
I have extra stock.
Can I fit it here?
If your company is so generous,
feel free to do it.
Let me just check with
my senior officer.
Please do.
You don't keep track
of the people coming here.
Not all culprits have a criminal record.
Sometimes they don't look
like how we know them.
But his criminal history is quite long.
A well-known felon.
Oh!
But everyone in our neighborhood
is disappointed.
Looks like even the recent robbery case
hasn't been cracked.
Sorry!
People can feel secure if CCTV cameras
are installed in the town.
Move!
Mythili, bring the keys.
Go!
Clear out any and all sharp items
in the storeroom.
- Lock him up there.
- Yes, sir.
- What's up, Chezhian?
- Yes, sir.
You have opened high-profile
cases on the computer…
with a stranger beside you.
Who is he?
- No, sir. He is…
- Leo. Leonard.
We have collaborated
with their company.
I was just briefing him
about our proceedings.
He is my tenant.
He's staying upstairs.
I know.
Don't mistake me.
- Chezhian.
- Sir?
Don't entertain unwanted people
in the police station.
Okay, sir.
Mythili, bring Airaa's records to my room.
Okay, sir.
Sorry, Leo.
Tension constantly lingers in this place.
It's okay. My bad.
Dad.
Eat this!
Sorry, Uncle.
Granny prepared poori today.
It's an oily dish.
If you eat that…
you will suffer…
and so will we.
You said that you have
something important to do.
What's that?
What do you mean?
You promised to let go of me after
you're done with some important work.
How did you explain
my absence to Mom?
I told her that you're at work.
Oh, God!
Let's leave. We are running late.
Listen, Santhosh.
Ask him not to tape me up.
I won't scream.
What do you think you are doing?
You expect me to oblige to his request?
He said he won't scream.
What's that, dude?
Chloroform.
Where did you get it from?
What do you think?
I buttered up our school lab assistant
to get some.
We can't count on him.
How long will this
keep him unconscious?
Also…
what if an overdose kills him?
I'm your father!
Please be seated.
I will go check it.
Sir… Uncle.
Sorry, sir.
Vinay's dad is here.
Be quiet for a while.
Please be quiet, Dad.
Else, Rajendran uncle
will find out all the truth.
Then I will get arrested.
Shall I arrest you guys now?
Do you think I can't?
My wife has asked me to file
a complaint against these guys.
They mercilessly thrashed my son.
You can't use fear to guide children
onto the right path.
On behalf of the kids…
I apologize.
Forgive them.
You must be punished first, sir.
What if they commit a murder?
Will you still pamper them?
What's going on Mr. Rajendran?
You are exaggerating things.
First, please have a seat.
Let's talk it out.
Rajendran!
What was that noise?
Sandy and Bala are inside.
They are looking for tools
for some project work.
Sandy and Bala!
Rajendran uncle is here.
You doofus.
Are we in trouble?
Let's find out.
Henceforth…
Vinay won't poke his nose
in your matters.
But…
if you guys don't act your age
hereafter…
I'll frame you all
in a non-bailable case.
Do you know what a "bail" is?
Do you?
Why aren't you at school?
We got suspended.
We un-un-unintentionally…
- hit Vinay.
- Unintentionally?
Hey…
What are you doing, Dad?
Told you! Do not come out.
Be quiet!
We already have a million issues.
Please allow your dad
and me to work in peace.
- Oh, no!
- Where did he go?
A specimen rat just jumped out.
He went to catch it.
See that, sir? Take care.
Told you, I might get arrested
and yet you tried to escape!
I promised to set you free
once our work is done.
What were you trying to do?
I am an adult and look
what you guys have done to me!
How will I face these mongrels
in the future?
So, tell me something, Dad.
How will I face my friends?
You visit us only once in a fortnight.
"You are a disciplined dad who
guides me on the right path."
This is how I've portrayed you
to my friends.
I have never given up on you.
But you broke into one of my friend's
houses, dug up the ground,
and tried to steal the jewels.
What would my friends think about me?
I went berserk at that moment.
I was truly livid with you.
They are striving so hard
not just for themselves but for me too.
I have erred too.
Once we fix everything,
I will obey you, oblige, and
get beaten up by you.
I'll reform as per your expectations.
But until then, please…
be patient and wait, Dad.
Sorry, Uncle.
Tomorrow, we will definitely set you free.
Hey, let's go.
See you, Uncle.
Are we not covering his mouth?
Trust me, he'll not try to escape.
Let's go.
You let them go, Dad?
Then I'll also do as I wish and beat up
anyone. Don't confront me either!
Vinay!
I didn't want to discuss this
in front of your mom.
I'm aware of your night outings
and activities!
I know what you and those rascals do!
Do you think I'm unaware of it?
Those kids didn't tell me all this.
Your friends told me.
Those kids won't mess with your hereafter.
Similarly, if you trouble them…
I will skin you alive!
Do you get that?
Vinay!
Oh, come on, dear.
Looks like you chose the wrong profession.
You seem to be a good artist.
Did you consider what I said?
Let me go.
Let's step out and talk.
So your girlfriend doesn't know
what you do, right?
We can't free you, Paari.
If I let you go,
these guys will kill me.
For taking your side,
Rico is mad at me.
Any update on that moron Blade?
Any news?
Rico is here.
Open the gates.
What's up?
Boss…
I couldn't extract anything from Paari.
He has a girlfriend.
I guess she might know.
Forget it.
I know where he is.
We're headed to
another important spot.
I don't get it.
We are going to meet Paneer.
Shall we?
Come on.
Hello, who is this?
Mr. Parasparam?
Yes, speaking. Tell me.
Is this "Women's Orchard"?
Yes, what do you want?
One of your friends left his phone here.
His phone is still dead.
I didn't know where to return the phone.
But I found your landline number.
Hence, I'm calling you.
Landline number? He might be
my customer, not my friend.
- Where did you see him?
- Near Pookkadu…
He was rushing with a bag of
jewels, next to a bar.
I don't know whom you're talking about.
Bring me the phone.
I will return it if someone
inquires about it.
He said he got a bag three
days ago at Rettamugadu.
Rettamugadu?
Retta… mug…
Bring it.
We'll find the owner
and return the bag.
I don't think he's the other thief.
But he sounded familiar
with the Rettamugadu incident.
I remember my dad telling me this.
Of late, in the meat shops…
dog meat is sold
in the name of mutton.
BEWARE OF MALE DOGS
I have a doubt.
Will dogs eat if this is dog meat?
You doofus!
You seem to be caught in
a lengthy discussion.
- Are you buying?
- No.
- We are buying.
- How much?
- 100 grams.
- So little?
I guess he's not home.
I don't see his car and the
main door is locked. All set!
None of the dogs are eating it.
I think we are in the
wrong "Women's Orchard".
Check other folders too.
That might help.
Let me check if the deceased guy
is there in any of these photos or videos.
Guys!
Come upstairs.
Sir?
Sir.
Parasparam sir.
Sir.
Is he also dead?
He is not dead.
He is wasted.
Can you keep the phone next to him?
That's a good idea.
Give me the phone.
There is a pocket here.
Give me that.
Hey, stop!
You suck at driving. Idiot!
Dimwit!
Call him.
Someone is here.
Let's hide somewhere for now.
Boss, he didn't answer the call.
He didn't?
Go inside and check.
Did he step out?
I don't think so.
I don't see his car inside.
Good for us.
Let's break in and wait for him.
He wouldn't expect us.
There are dogs but they are asleep.
What if he is expecting us?
We have weapons, right?
We'll finish off the dogs.
You want to kill a dog, you dog?
Let's go inside. If it pounces on us…
we'll just hit and shoo it away.
Come on.
Boss.
Your girlfriend.
My girlfriend?
What business does your girlfriend
have with him?
Damn you, Paneer!
You ass!
Rico!
Paneer!
What's up, Paneer?
How are you?
Who is that?
Raagi, do you see the other thief
among them?
Your business seems to be doing
quite well.
Richard!
Everybody calls me Rico.
You are the second person
to address me as Richard.
Ask me who is the first person.
Fine. I'll tell you.
My dad.
My daddy.
But he's long gone.
Let's not talk about that mongrel now.
By the way…
where's my sweetheart?
I heard that Blade betrayed you.
It's been months since I saw him.
I know it was one of you who spoke to me
earlier today.
Do you think I'll fall prey if you
mimic a kid's voice and speak to me?
Says so, Mr. Bigshot!
Why would I need to mimic to talk to you?
Richard.
Trust me.
I swear, I don't know where Blade is.
How do you know that
I'm here for Blade?
That implies…
Blade, Paari, and you
have devised some plan.
- Paari!
- Did I guess it right?
Look, once in a while he gifts jewels
to my girls.
That's all.
Rico…
I noticed that jewel
in your girlfriend's photo.
Whether I know it or not,
you're anyway going to kill me.
Paneer! Don't get him jittery.
Drop the gun.
Rico!
You pimp! You think you can outwit me?
- It's damaged.
- Damaged?
Like how my girlfriend
belongs to you now,
your gun belongs to me now!
Don't shoot me!
I have other girls too.
You may have them all.
Don't shoot me. Please!
Not fearing our Big Boss
will tarnish his reputation, Paneer.
And that is why Big Boss
hired Rico, to save his reputation.
- Good.
- Thank you.
- What the hell is this?
- Show me.
Help!
That's a wrap for "Episode Paneer".
Fix this.
How did you do it?
It's pretty simple, Rico!
Indeed, you are a genius.
Do one thing.
Clean up this place.
Do it yourself.
I don't want to see any remains
of Paneer on the floor.
Hold this.
Let's go, guys.
Hey!
Who are you? Come out.
Come out!
Come here!
Who are you? His son?
No, sir.
Who else is here?
Just me.
You have witnessed everything.
I can't let you go.
Please, no. Don't do it.
Who are you all?
Guys!
Don't you shout.
- Guys, come here!
- Else, I will shoot you.
Irai!
Hey!
Hey, Alex! Are you done with it?
We are running late.
irai!
Someone's coming.
Ask your men to leave.
Or else, I swear, I'll shoot.
Say it!
Rico…
No, don't!
Game over!
That's the end of your story
All your hard work
Has gone down the drain
O' dear, you're caught
O' boy, you're caught red-handed
O' little boy
O' you dummy
Go! You better run away
You better run away to some far-off place
