01x05 - Knitting

[bunniefuu]

Listen, newbies,

you have joined at the right time.
We've got a challenging case.

Stay dedicated, and
you can learn a lot from it.

It's so gory with the stab wounds
and paint all over the corpse.

Murthy said it's an important case
and asked us to learn from it.

Corpses scare the crap out of me.

Now, what do I do?

Even my sister's house is on sale.

I must advise her to rent it out
until someone buys it.

Sir, can I live there for free?

A house with the spare key outside,
anyone can enter.

On top of that, why do you think
they would've taken that lady there?

Just wait. The case will be solved
before sunset.

Tell me.

The fingerprints of
the other two boys from Hyderabad

match with those
found in the house.

All three of them
were in that house.

Okay. I'll take it from here.

I want everyone to
assemble downstairs in 5 minutes.

What's bothering you?

The systems will be up and running
in some time.

Come, let's go
and have a cup of tea.

Once Anu is here, we must find out
which folder was hacked.

Wait, does Anu know about it?
Did you inform her?

She must here to get the work done.

-Will she come in soon?
-What difference would it make?

Do you think any work will be done?

She is the cause
of all my problems.

Know any suitable replacement
for her?

Let's fire her.

-Stop acting crazy!
-Who? Me?

She is busy hacking CCTVs
then nabbing the hacker.

Wait and see.
She won't turn up today.

How are you so good
at making wrong guesses?

Malar...

Malar, I am very sorry.

I'll complete all the work today.

I will solve all the problems
I caused, and then I will quit.

Come on now!
Don't say that.

After all,
this is our own contract.

Forget about this doofus.

We have got a lot of work
on our hands.

So, come on.

First, let's have a cup of tea,

then find out
which folder was hacked

and identify the suspicious guy
in the footage.

Malar, a folder was hacked?

You thought no data was hacked.

But a folder from
one particular date was hacked.

Also, we don't know the dates
of the FIRs in that folder.

The footage from the day of the hack
has been thoroughly checked.

Most are either office staffers
or work for the department.

The only person
who has no business here

is this fellow.

And nobody here knows him.

I know him.

Keep your diabetes
and pressure pills handy.

Quench your thirst and
relieve yourself now if you want.

But if you excuse yourself later
for peeing or taking a dump,

I'll k*ll you.

None of you
are leaving my room today.

All your skills will be
put to test today. Let's see.

But there's only one toilet
in his room.

Sir, tea.

-Serve it to everyone inside.
-Okay, sir.

It was these three guys

who picked up that lady from
the railway station on the 16th.

These guys must have taken her
to my vacant house.

But...

if one of them is involved
in the hacking incident,

there is definitely a link between
the m*rder and this hack.

How do we find that out?

First, let's find out
which folder was hacked.

Until then no one must find out
about this hacking incident.

Bro...

there's an FIR request.
Quite urgent, it seems.

The request is from Tirunelveli.

What do we do now?

Go and order three cups of tea
for us.

-Now!
-Okay, bro.

Hear me out carefully.

Three medical students
from Hyderabad

r*ped and m*rder*d their classmate
and fled to Chennai.

On top of that,

they are involved in the m*rder
that took place in our jurisdiction.

The hundreds of fingerprints
collected from that house

also include the fingerprints
of these boys.

The neighbouring station's cops
found the corpse of one boy.

Let me explain it clearly
once again.

Three boys.

Three murders.

One in Hyderabad...

and two here, in Chennai.

-Out of them--
-Sir...

-What is it?
-What if this is a serial k*lling?

Are you an art student?

I have got one at home,
just like you.

If those three boys
are serial K*llers,

then who m*rder*d one among them?

Stop pulling his leg. Poor kid.

Why didn't those boys go into hiding
after escaping from there?

Why would they come here
and k*ll someone instead?

What if they were here
to k*ll that lady?

Quite possible.

Stop it. Oh, come on!

Why would they k*ll there, then
come here to m*rder a random lady?

They chose a vacant house,
which means

it must be
a well-ex*cuted plan, right?

Look what all they have done
at such a young age.

Can't wait to get my hands on them.

Murugan...

why are you quiet?

Well, they all have a point.

Before we dig into the details
of those boys,

we already have someone
who fits the bill.

Ganesan.

How could you leave him out?

If there's a motive in his case,

don't you think there'd be one
for those boys too?

Systems were hacked
on 16th November.

The hacked folder
is dated 16th November.

The m*rder took place
on 16th November.

My dad visits that house
every year

on 16th November.

Out of these four,

the folder that was hacked
and my dad's visit to that house

have a strong connection.

One is from years before.

The other has been happening
for years.

The remaining two
are recent events.

So, we've got a m*rder, a hack,
a folder and a house visit.

To know the reason
behind the m*rder,

we must find out the reason
behind the hack.

To know the reason behind the hack,

we must find out
which data was hacked.

To know which data was hacked,

we must check that folder and
find which is the concerned FIR.

And how are you going
to do all this, Anu?

I have no idea.

It's all back to square one.

Who is it?

Sir, he's on it.

The same answer every time!
When will we get it?

You'll get it soon, sir.

Soon? How? I am in Tirunelveli!

Email doesn't take hours to reach.
You'll get it in a jiffy.

Then make it fast.

Hang up and I'll email it
in a few minutes, sir.

Listen, an important--

Bro...

please get done with that file and
email it. This guy's after my life.

I'm on it.

Would you like to do it?

Look, he's calling again.
Hear it for yourself.

Bharath, I forgot to tell you.

An important matter.

Along with that FIR copy, there is
an insurance and a death certificate.

-Send those along too.
-Okay.

-Bro, attach those too in the email.
-Anu!

-I'll send them.
-Okay, bro.

Anu, I pity our fate.

November '95
is following us everywhere.

This request is also regarding
November '95.

The date doesn't match though.
This is four days ago, 12th November.

Anu, check out this case file.

It'll take another hour
for me to reach home.

You have your dinner
and go to sleep.

What happened, dear?
Why do you sound low?

A non-stop debate for
the past six hours.

They are torturing me.

Please you also don't do the same.

Come on, dear. What happened?

Stop talking in that tone.

Just tell me what happened.

Hang up. Just hang up.

Don't pester me.
I'll call you later.

I should have cut the call sooner.

God!

Stop! Stop it!

No! You guys are confusing me.

Start from the top.

You heard me. From the top.

Again from the top?

God!

Please move your hand.

See...

-Don't fall on me.
-Okay.

Come on, man.

Ganesan...

is a crime novelist.

His work is all about

murders and heists.

He writes them with passion.

What's your point?

If he can write about m*rder
with passion,

then can't he commit m*rder too?

Think about it, sir.

Don't underestimate the boys.

They are medical students who
study blood and flesh with passion.

They are quite daring.

Answer me this.

Which is easier? Three boys k*lling
a six-feet tall woman

or a single man
k*lling that woman?

Of course three boys
would've found it easy.

Do you understand, sir?

We do understand that silly logic.

What did that autopsy doctor say
the other day?

It was a mentally unstable person
who stabbed the victim.

Ganesan fits the profile perfectly.

There's already a m*rder charge
on those boys.

Is there any on Ganesan?

Those boys already know a thing or two
about committing m*rder.

They were smart enough
to pour the paint there.

Agreed.

The boys may have poured the paint
over the body.

Then who's
the mentally unstable one?

If you say that,
then let me put it this way.

In that scenario, let's say Ganesan
was the mentally unstable person.

Then who poured the paint
over the body?

How would I know?

But...

it was the day
when the m*rder took place

that Ganesan visited the house,
and he does it every year.

Didn't the laundry guy
tell us that?

Fine, he visits the house
every year.

But not every year
a m*rder was committed there.

But he wasn't in this state
all these years, right?

A few days ago,
he tried stabbing his maid.

Sir.

Why are you enjoying this
like a turtle watching tennis?

Sir, may I make a point?

Make a point or many,
but make it clear. Got it?

I see the problem here.

A mentally unstable person
is missing on the boy's team,

and a sane person
is missing on Ganesan's team.

If we find
the mentally unstable person first,

then he is the m*rder*r.

If we find a sane person first,
then they are the murderers.

Whomever we find first
is the m*rder*r, sir!

Do you get it now, sir?

I'm going to k*ll you now!

Sir, sir, I've taken a holy vow.

And that is what is saving you!

Sir, I'll explain it clearly now.
Hear me out.

If we find
the mentally unstable person first,

then they got it right.

If we find those boys first,

then they got it right.

Whomever we find first,
is the group that wins this debate.

Do you get it now, sir?

He will keep blabbing like this!

What nonsense are you talking?

Stop it!
I said stop it!

Back to your seat! Now!

-Go back to your seats!
-You heard the officer.

Unnecessarily creating a scene.

What are you doing? Move back!

Senior...

I say the female victim in Hyderabad
and the victim here are linked.

Now, if I prove it,

will you rule out Ganesan?

Doesn't he have
better things to do?

Instead of getting out
and catching them,

he keeps making me send faxes.

Crazy fellow.

These pants suck!

My big bottom isn't enough
to keep them from falling off.

Drat!

This crazy guy.

It was faxed throughout Tamil Nadu,
and no one has answers.

Does he think he'll get a reply
from Hyderabad?

Well, I'll do my duty and fax it.

This stupid fax machine.

When I want to send a fax out,
it receives a fax.

Fine, let me read it.

Listen...

don't give him the medicine.

Hello, sir. Sub-inspector Muthuvel
from Tirunelveli here.

Remember you had faxed a woman's photo
a couple of days ago?

Her name is Savithri.

She is from here, Sanganankulam.

Her husband was a painter.

He died while painting a building
and fell off the second floor.

I've sent you the FIR, death certificate
and insurance claim copies.

She has been missing since the day
she claimed the insurance money.

If I get any further information,
I shall call you and update, sir.

Uh-oh!

He is on to something.

His eyeballs are dancing!

He is closing his eyes now.
Wonder what he's thinking.

Please let it not be another message
to be faxed.

Sir...

my knees are k*lling me!

Mathivanan...

get me that Neeta case file.

Please.

Do it yourself
and you'll know my pain! You jerk!

We'll find out from him.

Those three boys
are the murderers, right?

It's Ganesan, right?

Guys...

you can see that the SI
is torturing me.

So, please have some mercy on me.

If I give him this file,

you will get an answer
within a few minutes.

So, move out of way!

Say something, Anu.

It's getting late.

What are you thinking so deeply?

Say something, Anu.

You know what happens
if your dad misses a dose.

Kuzhandhai!

How are you?

-There he goes again.
-It's been so long.

"The aforementioned person,
Kumaresan,

"died not because of intoxication
but due to lack of safety measures.

"Please help
the deceased's wife, Savithri,

"to claim the insurance money,
which rightfully belongs to her.

"Please consider this
as my humble request.

"Yours sincerely,

"Kuzhandhai Yesu."

Dad...

Kuzhandhai.

Wake up!

That girl and Sandeep are missing.

What? They must be here somewhere.
Move!

I searched the whole house.

Sandeep!

Hey! They are really missing!
