Give me a moment, will you, sir?

Look, foreigner! Don't act

like the mafia, wearing a trench coat.

This is regarding my job.

Answer the questions.

What the hell are you talking about?

- He's just wasting our time.

He's bull-shitting us.

He's playing with us.

They kept asking all night

and Ajju kept answering...

...that he was with

that cop's wife.

After sometime, even that

officer started believing that...

...Ajju truly was

with McGuires wife.

Did you listen? Hey a**hole!

Uncle Sam has laid

his eyes on you.

Tell him not to look at me too

much. It'll do me bad. A**hole!

Truck.

- Lawyer.

What lawyer?

- What truck?

Where's the truck?

- Where's my lawyer?

Do these people think

of us as talcum powder?

Even if they itch a little,

they pick us up.

Not talcum powder, but condoms.

They use us all night...

...and flush us down the

toilet in the morning.

Hey Ajju! Shall we talk

business? - Yes, boss.

Anyway, they pick us

up every third day.

It isn't good

for my reputation.

Which station?

- Reputation. - What?

Reputation means status. You

won't understand its English.

Ok. Status, that too yours?

Hey donkey, what do...

...you do when

you're outside the jail?

The same thing that you

do with McGuires wife.

This McGuires

wife is quite popular.

How many of you have

an affair with her?

Mark? Andy?

- No. My standard is a bit high.

Good. Let's get

down to business.

Major, I had heard that

you had given up everything.

Boss, Major had promised his

wife that he's given up everything.

Just like our hero. Hey! Even

you've promised your girl that...

...you've given up everything,

isn't it?

What? What have you

promised your girl?

That I'll kill you.

- Then kill him first.

I can't give up my business

for a girl. Stupidity! Stupidity!

Business!? Have you seen

his girl? - Is she beautiful?

Beautiful? She's the

queen of Club India.

You're talking of business? I

can leave this world for her sake.

I'll help you leave this world.

- Leave him.

Hey guys! - Major!

Major, just ignore them.

They're just whiling away their

time. You were saying something.

McGuire is whiling

away his time with us.

But you people

won't understand that.

You keep wasting your

time over unnecessary talks.

You won't think why the

police is always arresting us.

The police commits the

crime of arresting us.

Hence, the police will

pay the price for doing so.

How? - By looting their banks.

- The service American bank?

Every cop here has

an account there.

That's why no one has dared

to loot that bank till date.

Because the one who loots

this bank will be taken on a...

...procession to the
