Congrats, you won today.
You two still trying to beat me?
Don't get too cocky now.
That's water, not air.
Vedika, you drop some killer lines.
Look how much screen time she's taking.
Good breathing, Latika.
Your lung capacity's solid. Keep it up.
Vedika, what's your problem?
That was the perfect chance to beat her,
and you threw the goggles in the middle of the race.
My vision went completely blurry, so I took them off, and she won, sir.
These are just excuses after losing.
If that's the case, I'll get her new goggles.
We're friends,
but the competition has to be fair.
Next time, I'll beat you both.
All right, get me the branded ones.
Me too.
Are you guys free tonight?
Let's go for a movie, full night show.
Yeah, but not a sad one.
I need to go to bed early, I'm not coming.
Why?
- She's turning into a nerd. - Yeah, right.
- Pass me that. - Hold on a sec.
Here.
I'll take a quick shower,
- then we'll head for breakfast. - Yeah.
If you treat me daily, I'll let you win daily.
Keep dreaming.
What about you? Why aren't you coming?
- Not in the mood. - Why?
Got a seven am lecture tomorrow.
- I don't want to go, what do I do? - Guys.
Have you seen my body wash?
- No. - No.
I've been looking for it forever, can't find it.
- Then keep looking. - Come, let's check.
- Let's go, just come this one time. - We're coming.
I kept it here, but now it's gone.
Check your bag.
I searched everywhere, still can't find it.
Please check here once.
Maybe it fell, look below.
You guys can check.
I just bought it.
- Found it? - Here it is.
- You fool. - Oh, yes.
I kept it here, how did it end up there?
Bye!
Let's change, too.
Where's Latika?
She's not here yet.
You know how much she drags things.
Latika!
Hurry up, we're going to be late, Latika.
Latika!
I'll go check.
Call her quickly.
Latika!
Latika, can you hear me?
- Answer me. - What's wrong?
She's not even responding. No idea.
Latika, hurry up, we're going to be late.
The shower's on.
Latika!
Latika, it's not funny, open up.
Latika!
Open the door, come on.
- Push it. - Latika, open the door.
Latika!
- What happened? - Sir, Latika!
- What happened? - Sir!
Shreya!
- Vedika. What happened? - Mom.
- Latika. - What's going on?
Sir, we need to inform the police.
I'm calling them now.
Let's go.
What do you think?
Abhijeet, there are no injury marks on the body.
I can see signs of asphyxiation.
Here.
Because Latika was an excellent swimmer.
Swimmers have far stronger lung power than normal people.
Can asphyxiation even happen in such ordinary conditions?
You're absolutely right, Daya.
Now, there's no other visible evidence on the body,
but I did find some froth around her mouth
with blood stains.
That's a sign of pulmonary oedema.
This is only possible if someone else was here with Latika.
But the shower door was locked from the inside.
Strangulation isn't possible without entering.
Any traces of poison?
Abhijeet, only Latika's body can answer that.
I'll have to take it to the lab
for further tests.
Purvi, if you don't mind, please help me collect the evidence.
Let's talk outside
to her friends and coach.
How can a swimmer have breathing issues?
Vedika and Shruti?
You two were the first to find Latika's body, right?
Yes, sir.
What exactly happened?
Sir, actually, we were there…
Answer me.
She's not responding at all. No idea.
Latika, hurry up, we're going to be late.
- Latika. - Push the door.
Latika!
What happened to Latika, sir?
The investigation is ongoing. We'll find out soon.
Did she seem
unwell before?
Not at all, sir.
She was the fittest among us.
In fact, she even beat both of us in a race before the shower.
Any breathing issues?
No, sir, none.
How long have you known Latika?
Six months, sir.
Yes, sir, we all met at the academy.
Have you informed Latika's family?
Yes, sir. We informed her mother, Shalini,
who also owns Health Pharma.
Mr. Vinod's wife?
The one who died of a heart attack four months ago?
Yes, sir.
Latika!
Where's Latika?
Sir, where is Latika? What happened to her?
I'm asking you something. What happened to Latika?
Tell me, where is she?
Ma'am, please, just a minute.
- Latika! - Ma'am.
- Latika! - Ma'am, please.
- Ma'am, please calm down. - Latika!
Ma'am.
Ma'am, please, control yourself.
What is this?
The investigation is ongoing.
- We'll inform you. - Latika!
Ma'am, please. Take her inside.
- You, come here. - Come here, please.
First the husband, now the daughter.
Two deaths in the family in such a short time.
Strange.
Very strange, boss.
She was about to turn 18.
There was even a surprise birthday party planned for next week.
I heard she was supposed to take over
her father's business after becoming an adult.
Looks like someone didn't want that to happen.
Property, money, love, hate, jealousy,
these are the reasons behind murder.
Sir, what do you think it was this time?
Once we figure out how she was killed,
we'll know who did it too.
Pankaj, take everyone to the lobby.
No one leaves this place.
- Yes, sir. - Got it?
What happened to Latika? Why aren't you saying anything?
Ma'am, please sit down. We'll tell you everything.
Ma'am, calm down.
The investigation is ongoing. We'll inform you.
Please be patient.
Latika!
Gargi!
Unbelievable. This is your idea of security?
In such a high-profile facility?
You should be behind bars for criminal negligence.
Sir, it's not like that.
CCTV cameras cover everywhere, except
the boys' and girls' locker rooms.
But there were some ongoing technical issues,
so maintenance took them down for repairs.
A trial run was done yesterday, and the rest are being installed today.
Oh? Don't you think the timing is a little too convenient?
This incident and the maintenance?
Show me the footage from the operational camera, quickly.
Yes, sir. Pankaj, play it.
Hold on! Who is that?
Freeze the frame.
Who is this? Zoom in.
Sorry, sir, this is the maximum pixel clarity.
Wow, what a five-star facility.
Only one operational camera, and it looks like it's from the Stone Age.
Who was on duty at the main gate at that time?
Deepak is on duty at the main gate till seven am.
And this CCTV footage is from 6:30 am.
- So Deepak was on duty then, right? - Yes, sir.
- Do you have his phone number? - Yes, sir.
Get the number from him.
Meet the CCTV maintenance team
and find out why the cameras keep having issues.
Yes, sir.
Boss, Latika's lungs contained traces of a highly toxic chemical.
It's called sithoxide.
This chemical is so lethal
that when exposed to heat, it turns into poison
and evaporates into the air.
We also found traces of it
inside Latika's mouth and on her nose.
Abhijeet,
that means my suspicion was right.
Latika died because of poison.
Doctor, you said heat causes
this chemical to turn into vapor and disperse into the air.
Heat is present in the shower room, there's hot water.
That's possible.
Boss, but there's a big question.
What?
The question is,
this chemical wasn't found in her shampoo,
body wash,
or the pool water.
So how did it reach her lungs?
From outside the shower room, Abhijeet.
From outside the shower room.
The source of this poison
is inside the locker room.
Inside the locker room.
We need to search every corner of the locker room.
We'll definitely find something.
Yes, Purvi, what did you find?
Sir, I checked the changing room and the locker room.
There's nothing that could've transferred poison to Latika.
Then do one thing,
ask Shruti and Vedika
what objects they touched
before entering the locker room.
Especially Latika.
Okay.
Think carefully and tell me.
From the swimming pool to the locker room,
what did you and Latika touch?
Nothing, ma'am. After getting out of the pool,
we spoke to sir for a minute or two.
Then, we picked up our towels from the chair
and went straight to the locker room.
Inside the locker room, she only touched her locker.
And the cup for drinking hot water.
Ma'am, when we were in the pool, we also touched a timer sensor.
A timer sensor?
Yes, tell me.
Latika died because of poisoning.
What? Poison?
But who would poison such a young girl?
What harm did she ever do to anyone?
That's exactly what we're trying to find out, Mrs. Shalini.
Killing a 17-year-old girl like this, it doesn't add up.
Something else is going on here.
Does your family or Mr. Vinod have any enemies?
Any disputes?
Business conflicts happen,
but nothing serious enough for someone to kill him.
However, Vinod's younger brother, Manoj,
had some disagreements with him.
Disagreements? When was this?
Five or six months ago.
About what?
I asked Vinod many times, but he never told me.
And a month after their argument, Mr. Vinod passed away?
Yes.
After the disagreement with Manoj, Vinod was distraught.
Maybe that's what led to his heart attack.
I see.
Was there any investigation into his death?
We followed all the procedures that were required.
But nothing suspicious came up.
- What's Mr. Vinod's brother's name again? - Manoj.
- Manoj? - Yes.
Abhijeet,
dig up everything on this Manoj.
Purvi, did you find anything in their bags that could be poison?
Sir, no. I'm still checking, but there's nothing.
All right, keep checking. I'll take a look at the timing sensor.
Subhash,
- get ready for diving. - Okay, sir.
- Digvijay, listen. - Yes.
- Set up that machine… - Yes.
…we brought.
Sir, security guard Deepak's phone was tracked to right here.
Sir, the red hoodie.
Sir, let me handle this.
Deepak?
- Who's Deepak? - I'm Deepak. What happened?
Speak up! Why are you just staring?
Did a cat get your tongue?
Sir, this one's your type.
You'll have to deal with him.
- Should I go? - Please, sir.
- Deepak. - Yes.
What do you know about Latika's death?
I don't know anything.
- Nothing? - No.
Just before Latika's death, around 6:30 am.,
you were seen lurking near her locker room
wearing a red hoodie in the CCTV footage.
That's not me.
Oh? Get up,
let's go to the CID.
I ran into that guy on the way downstairs.
He was asking about the gym.
I also want to know about the gym.
How much is the membership fee here per month?
Oh!
Daya sir!
Sir, look.
There are five guys.
Sir, it's unfair to me.
Just take care of them all.
Weren't you practicing boxing? What happened?
Sir, I got injured.
I hurt my elbow. It's painful, sir.
Painful? No worries, sit. I'll be back.
- Thank you, sir. - It's okay.
Now it'll be fun. You've built quite a body, haven't you? Now watch.
He got you from behind!
- Sir! - Get up!
His phone has photos and videos of Latika.
Look at this.
What is this?
- I'll tell you, sir. - Go on.
I really liked Latika ma'am.
I know I'm just a security guard and she comes from a wealthy family.
I made a mistake,
I filmed her secretly, sir.
But not with any bad intentions.
And I have nothing to do with her murder, sir.
I'm telling the truth, sir.
What were you doing in a red hoodie near the girls' locker room?
Sir, I didn't go there, sir.
But I-- I know who did.
- Who is it? - Sir, it's…
Come on, just one bite.
A teeny tiny bite.
- Mr. Manoj? - Yes?
Celebrating your niece's death, are we?
Stop with your nonsense. What happened to Latika?
And who are you?
I'm from the CID.
She was murdered this morning.
After my brother passed away, I cut all ties with them.
All right.
You may have cut ties with his family,
but not with his money, right?
We checked Vinod's accounts.
You're receiving a hefty sum every month.
Especially after the fight.
Look, officer.
Mind your darn business.
You don't know what I'm capable of.
I can remind you of your place with just one phone call.
- Shall I? - Oh.
Look, let me be of service.
Please use my phone.
Call whoever you want to.
When they see my number, they'll at least know
who needs to remember their place.
Look, Manoj, I can drag you if I want. Don't test me.
No one here has the guts to question me, got it?
You figure out the extent of humiliation you can suffer.
Come on, spill the truth.
- Sir, may I go take a shower? - Sure.
Thank you.
What was laced with poison?
Why can't I find the poison?
Sir.
Did you learn anything from what we got from the swimming pool?
Nothing, Daya. The report came out negative.
I don't understand how Latika was poisoned.
Sir, the CCTV camera engineer
said that all the cameras were badly burnt.
They were fried using an infrared beam.
- Intentionally. - Yes.
Laser beam sensor.
And, sir,
what did Deepak say about the one in the red hoodie?
It's his hoodie,
but it had been missing since morning.
- Someone else was wearing it. - Who, sir?
Whoever it was, they were in plain sight.
Sir.
Sir, I found this laser torch in Shruti's bag.
Laser beam sensor?
So it was Shruti who fried the cameras' sensors
with this laser beam.
And she's the one who was seen in the red hoodie.
But, sir, why would anyone kill their friend?
Jealousy, Purvi.
Shruti isn't in any of these pictures.
Only Latika and Vedika were photographed
with the winning trophy,
but Shruti is missing.
It seems like the murder was motivated by jealousy.
Pankaj.
So, Shruti, you killed your friend, didn't you?
I killed her? I killed Latika?
I did not-- I did not kill her, sir.
I just wanted to win a prize.
I wanted to achieve something.
She was so good that she'd always get selected,
and I would never get selected.
Sir, I stole the hoodie to swap her medicine.
Sir, I did not kill her.
This is a laser torch, how did it end up in your bag?
I don't know. I don't even know what it is, ma'am.
Shruti, lying won't help your case.
You've been caught.
Sir, I'm not lying, it's not mine.
I don't know, ma'am.
Daya.
Subash went to take a shower a while ago, but he isn't back yet.
- Let me go and check. - All right, sir.
Isn't he done with his shower? Subash?
Subash, are you there?
Suba-- Answer me, at least.
Subash?
Su--
Subash, are you in there? Subash. My God!
I think he's in the one that's closed.
I'm sure he's in there.
Subash?
Are you planning to use all of Earth's water?
Come out, Subhash!
Why isn't he responding? Subash?
Something seems off.
He's in there, but he isn't responding.
Daya, Subash is in the shower,
but he isn't opening the door or responding.
I'm sure something is wrong.
Yes, come here right now.
Daya, Subash is in there.
I checked all around, and only this one's closed.
I knocked so many times, but no response at all.
Daya, he--
He died the same way Latika did.
What on earth is going on?
Boss, the sithoxide that caused Subash's death,
I found traces of it in this body wash.
And yes,
Latika and Shruti's fingerprints were found on this bottle.
This is the same body wash that Latika was using.
And we found the same bottle of body wash
in the men's locker room.
That means the killer, who was scared of getting caught,
hid this bottle of body wash
in the men's locker room.
I got into the habit of blowing through money, sir.
I learnt a secret about Vinod
that gave me the key to his treasure,
and I started blackmailing him.
What kind of a secret?
Sir, he used to meet a woman in secret.
He gave her money, too.
I don't know why.
Who is this woman?
I don't know, sir.
Really, sir.
I tried to follow her to identify her, sir.
She was wearing a mask, and sunglasses as well,
so I couldn't catch a glimpse of her face.
And then she left in a car, sir.
And then?
Then I made a bluff, sir.
I met Vinod that very night.
I know your secret.
Who was that woman?
None of your business.
Is that so? I'll tell sister-in-law then.
If you tell her about this, I'll be your worst nightmare.
Fine, I won't tell her,
I need money in return.
You'll get your money,
but stay away from this!
Why would I kill him, sir?
I'm getting my money every month.
Do you remember that car's license plate number?
Let alone the number, sir, I've made a video of it.
Is that so?
Please calm down, we'll keep you updated.
Ma'am, please calm down.
I've been waiting forever. If you had taken a minute longer,
I would've left.
Madam gave me all the responsibility.
I just got delayed while handling all that.
It's true to the will, right? I hope it is.
Trust me, I've checked it twice.
Payment for my troubles?
You've done your job well.
You'll get the apt reward.
What-- What-- What are you doing?
This secret will die with you.
Not quite.
CID?
Get down! Get down!
Hey!
How exactly did you kill Vinod and Latika?
No, sir, I just took the money,
I didn't kill anyone.
So who did it then?
Madam.
Sir, madam had promised to give me a senior position in her company.
I was just following her instructions.
All right, let's have a word with your madam.
We, too, have some accounts to settle.
CID?
It's you. You came back.
Is there anything that needs to be done, officer?
Yes, catching the culprit.
Do you know who killed my daughter?
The one who killed Latika is the one
- who killed your husband, Vinod. - What?
It was done for the properties.
Are you saying I had my husband and my daughter killed for properties?
When did I say that you had committed the crime?
You know what people say?
Keep your friends close,
but your enemies even closer.
Someone has finally put this proverb to use.
Isn't that right, Ms. Uma?
This was orchestrated by Sailesh and his madam.
He and Uma have done this.
What are you talking about?
Why would Uma do this? What does she have to do with our properties?
These are the papers of Vinod's will.
These are fake documents.
The entire property is in the name of Vedika.
In my name?
Mom, what are they saying?
Please say that they are lying.
Please say that you didn't do anything.
Mom, what are they talking about?
I don't understand anything. Why would Uma do this?
Because Mr. Vinod has kept a secret from everyone.
Vedika is Vinod and Uma's daughter.
What are you talking about, officer?
Vinod is my husband.
We were together for 20 years. You want to tell me that Vinod--
It's true.
The truth which I have been hiding the past 20 years.
I kept that secret hidden in my heart.
Vinod and I met each other in college.
We loved each other.
We even got married.
But until Vinod found a way to make a living,
we hid this secret from everyone.
But after our wedding,
within a few months, Vinod has divorced me.
When I went to talk to him, I found out the truth.
He set up a different world for himself with a rich woman.
Ever since that day, Vinod hadn't even looked at me.
He didn't even know that
I was pregnant with his child.
When my family found out about this,
they severed all their ties with me.
I was all alone.
Ever since that moment
I raised my daughter all by myself.
One day, I found out something.
I found out I had cancer.
I only had few days left to live.
I started to worry about
what would happen to Vedika after I died.
Who would take care of her?
That's why I met with Vinod.
I told Vinod everything. But he didn't care about us.
He didn't care whether we lived or died.
That's when I made a decision.
I will give my daughter what rightfully belonged to her.
No matter what I had to do.
That's why you killed Vinod.
You have a pharmaceutical degree.
You obtained some poison using that degree.
You gave that poison to Sailesh.
Sailesh added that poison to Vinod's coffee.
Poor Vinod! His chapter came to an end.
You added the same poison to Latika's body wash.
After Latika died, you were the first one there.
When they all were occupied with calling the police,
you removed the body wash from the washroom.
You knew that Purvi was checking everyone's bags outside.
That's why you hid that body wash in the men's locker room.
About the infrared laser torch.
You used that to ruin all the CCTV cameras.
You hid that torch in Shruti's bag.
You knew that Shruti was jealous of Latika.
You wanted the blame to fall on Shruti. Wow!
You didn't just take an innocent girl's life.
You were also responsible for the death of one of our officers.
Whatever I did,
I did it to give my daughter what is rightfully hers.
I didn't want any of that, Mom.
I only wanted you to be with me.
Why did you do this?
Why did you do this, Mom? Why?
Vedika, do you have any other relatives?
Is there someone you want to go and live with?
I don't have anyone other than my mom, sir.
Vedika.
Do you want to live here with me?
I cannot be your mom.
But we can share each other's sorrows.
I lost a daughter.
