..life coming to normal in the war

torn Afghanistan.

US government sending more troops..

So, have you guys done war before?

No. this is ourfirst time..

we are rookies.

So what do you think will make an

interesting story to do in post 9/11 Kabul?

Well.. get Osama l guess..

..or if not Osama, then a chat

with Mullah Omar.

That will give your network some ratings.

As far as l am concerned..

l'll be content.

Over and done with this blessed place if..

..if l can get up close with a Taliban fugitive.

But they've all disappeared, either dead,

or in hiding. - Rubbish!

We found one.. the bloody guy almost got us

killed at the Buzkashi.

Kebabs for dinner.

So, your name is Jessica Beckham.

Nice name. do you play football?

So where did you guys see this Taliban?

C'mon guys. How does one get

to these Taliban?

He's talking bullshit as usual.

Thanks again for saving our lives.

Bye. - Bye.

Man, can't we take her along?

You are always horny.. you see a white

woman and get all excited!

Dude... Aflower blooms in the desert and

you ask what color it is?

At least we are seeing a woman.

All the local stuff has been packed up..

..in Burkha by the bloody Taliban!

What does Horny mean?

One whose brain is not in his head

but down below!

Why are you looking at me?

Why did you have to reveal all

our plans to her?

Why? Are we taking an exam here?

Yes.. lt is an exam

lf we don't take back an exclusive

story from here..

..you will spend the rest of your life

shooting boring..

..press conferences of fat politicians.
