Ah! Here at last on the scene!

What do you mean?

When we came,

just 4 years old was Tabbu

You brought him up

He thinks of you as 'Abbu'

He's like your son.

Hotheaded? Perhaps yes..

'But fought for you

& landed in a mess.

If you don't bail him out tomorrow'

You should have told us long ago

a nephew's a far cry!

Why, a sister, if a widow...

is not welcome any more!

What're you saying Sister!

You know well...

...Tabbu's hot temper

is impossible to quell!

I've tried to reason with him in vain!

Grandma, you explain

Look Sabir,

who else is there for a woman...

...but father, husband or brother?

Tell me then'

...if Julie were in trouble,

God forbid...

...could you rest until

you came to her aid?

Shh my child, shh!

You're responsible for him,

his guardian!

Go find a way

to get him out of prison!

Easy for the old woman to say!

But, the person needed for that'

'is a most dangerous one!

'Is a most dangerous one!

Not King, nor Knave...

...an Ace!

Tayeb will surely kill me one day!

My image is tattered,

my reputation at stake!

Lost his father early.

Now a spoilt brat!

Can't control his temper,

that's what.

Sabir Saab, must loving care

make a monkey of a lad?

Then what's the use of culture,

tell me that?

But Tayeb isn't really a bad sort

At this age their heads

just get too hot!

Isn't the Police Commissioner

your friend'?

That fellow Tayeb knifed,

is he on the mend?

Not come to yet.

It was deep, the wound!

'What's his name again?

Think they call him Sunny'

Tayeb needs a lesson,

I know that better than any'

I'll teach him good & proper'

First pray to Allah Miya...

...that Sunny survives!

If not, I greatly fear...

...that Tayeb will be

charged with murder

And your image tarnished further!

True, I could ask the Commissioner if I'

But hide any facts, &you deal with

RTI (Right to Information)!

I understand sir.

'With Elections ahead'

...one mis-step,

& you're as good as dead!

These are mere tries anyhow.

Okay, I'll take your leave now.

Oh! Do call us if you need anything...

'before the Elections we mean!

Come now, Sabir Saab

your business is mine too!

Let me see what I can do'

Friendship is above any law after all!

Hey you!

Give the Commissioner a call.

If it hadn't been for Grandma, I'd prefer

for Tayeb to stay in the stir.

A real taste of prison..

'Would soon make him see reason!

True

But Tayeb has his uses too.

By the way, Manmohan still won't sell

Even doubling our price didn't jell.

Says the house holds

memories of his mother!

But sell he must, or we're in lather!

Oh go on, Mirza Saab'.!

If the price is right,

anyone will sell!

Not always for money! Well'
