The Night Manager (2023) s01e06 Episode Script

Congratulations!
You are an entrepreneur now.
You told me
Shelly is an arms dealer.
Now you have partnered with him.
What do you want, Shaan?
Hey!
Get BJ's luggage packed.
You need a break from all of us.
Any guesses, Danish?
Who is Indradhanush?
Yes, I am Indradhanush.
Shelly does for us
what we tell him to.
In return, we let him do
what he wants to.
Shelly! Shelly, no
I'm pulling you out. We've heard
about your little romance.
There are three men outside.
They're watching us.
Shaan!
There is a problem.
He has gone rogue, ma'am!
I think he has switched sides.
Do you know anyone
named Lipika Saikia?
No.
Should I?
Good morning, sir.
Thank you.
-What is this?
-A list of our supplies.
Decoded.
And this list
No one else had access to it
other than Jayu and me.
Yet, it reached
the Indian Intelligence.
Who among us is leaking
this information to them?
Jayu wouldn't.
Anyone can deceive
if they have a good enough reason.
I think we should
call off the sale.
Who knows how much
more information they have?
Inviting guests
and then cancelling the party
is not my style.
We go ahead with the sale.
If not Jayu or Mrinal,
then who could it be?
BJ?
He's a childhood friend.
It is easier to backstab
when you're close.
It could be Kaveri.
You can't be serious.
It could also be you.
Is it you, Shaan?
What do you think?
Whoever it is
his days are numbered.
Falcon has landed.
Everyone, be alert.
Copy, sir. Everyone, alert!
-Good morning, sir.
-Morning.
Sir, you were to come tomorrow.
-You landed early. All okay?
-Jaffer
Meet him.
Captain Abhimanyu Mathur.
The new director of Pureways.
This time, we are
dealing on his behalf.
-Hello.
-Hi.
Unlike BJ,
he has war stories
and not drunk stories.
Captain, show him
your scars sometime.
Nice to meet you, Captain.
Come.
Also I heard a storm
had struck last night.
-Has the cargo been unloaded?
-It's underway, sir.
-Good.
-Please.
Captain, your phone.
Yours too. Chief's orders.
Chief! Mine as well?
Obviously.
Otherwise, your babysitter
won't let you work.
Come on.
-Who are these people?
-Local transporters.
We use them for petty supplies.
They should be nowhere
around the demo site.
-We expect our buyers tomorrow.
-Copy, sir.
Hey, boys!
Come on, everyone, sharp!
-Mr. Shelly is here.
-Thank you.
Weapons in the open.
Won't it be a problem?
No, it won't be a problem.
It is a satellite-dead zone.
Completely off the radar.
Besides, the buyers are not
coming here to buy vacuum cleaners
that they'd make do with a brochure.
This is Arabia,
and I am the Lawrence of Arabia.
-How are you, Abbas?
-All good.
You guys have decorated
this place well. Lovely!
So
-have you learnt Hindi yet or not?
-Little, little
Looking forward to the new toys?
Yeah. They are bloody impressive.
Especially this one.
This here is
Captain Abhimanyu Mathur.
He's a soldier like all of you.
And he's going to handle
the demo tomorrow.
You had served in
the year 2009, right?
I want you to meet someone.
Patil. Yes.
Jaidev Patil!
I'm still Jaidev Patil. I don't have
the habit of changing names.
You became a mercenary, Patil.
Hey, you did worse.
You became a businessman!
I can vouch for this man here.
He's the bravest, craziest fucker
I have ever served under.
It will be great fun to work
with you once again, Lieutenant.
Not Lieutenant. Captain.
Captain Abhimanyu Mathur.
Come on, guys.
Let's welcome the captain.
-Hi, Captain
-All right, boys!
Ready to party?
It's a desert. I thought
you might be thirsty.
What's wrong with you?
We are not here to party, idiot.
They need to handle arms tomorrow,
not a hangover.
Get to know your team, Mathur.
I read your report.
If you didn't want to give
any information,
then why submit the report?
But, sir, I have
mentioned everything.
How we engaged GV
-You know, how it all started--
-GV decoded the info.
But where did we get
the info from?
That's the question.
Who is this person? Your agent?
Maybe I have to remind you that
-we are on the same side.
-Oh, are we?
Really?
Well, you focus so much
on your targets
that you don't see
the bigger picture.
Some lives are lost
in every operation.
That's a price
we are willing to pay
because our responsibility
is towards millions of Indians.
I am giving you one last chance.
Give me the name.
You have no idea how big
a mistake you're making--
I'm not the one making a mistake.
You are!
By protecting Shelly.
And I won't be the one
paying for it.
It'll be those millions of Indians
who'll have to pay.
You are suspended
with immediate effect
for insubordination
and misappropriation of funds.
And Danish Khan as well.
I am setting up a fast-track
inquiry committee.
You can give all your answers there.
Report to the committee.
-Hello.
-What's the update?
Ma'am, Shelly's jet left Dubai,
but we don't know
where it is going.
And the other agencies
are not sharing any information
or intel with us.
To top it all, our clearances
have been cancelled.
The bigger problem is
that he beat up our agents
right in front of me.
After that, there is
complete radio silence.
Maybe the question here is
if he is at all on our side
or not.
Sir
If you need anything,
I'm sitting right here.
Yes.
-All set?
-Sir.
Communication systems
and translators in place?
-Yes, sir.
-Good.
Hello, everyone!
A very good evening to you
from my colleague,
Captain Abhimanyu Mathur, and me.
Thank you for making the journey
all the way from Myanmar.
You all can use
your headphones.
Sir, this is for you.
-Will it be loud?
-I certainly hope so, sir.
My interpreter here is going to
translate whatever I say.
It's showtime.
Ready with the fireworks,
Captain?
Absolutely.
This is BTG01.
Control unit, go ahead.
-All players on the flare in ten.
-Copy that.
General Aung
Would you care
to do the honours?
Thank you.
The silence of the night
in the desert.
But it's time to wake up
our neighbours
in the guise of silence.
Tonight we shall claim the land
that is rightfully ours.
Our army is ready
to attack their territory.
But there's movement
on the other side.
Someone is approaching.
Is it a friend or an enemy?
By the time we find out,
it will be too late.
We have to take a decision
immediately.
But how?
If you could please look
at the console in front of you
Our latest Russian-made
biometric software
identifies encroaching movements.
Enemy.
Our first strike, and war begins.
Vulcan M61A2.
Six-barrelled, air-cooled,
electrically fired
Gatling-style rotary cannons
with a muzzle velocity
of 3,000 feet per second.
The enemy is counter-attacking.
They seem to have purchased
new weapons too.
But they are moving too fast.
There's only one way to respond
to such firing.
POM-4.
This landmine detects
the seismic activity of the enemy.
If the enemy comes within
a radius of 20 feet
These landmines will be useful
to you at your border.
It's not over yet.
Waves of enemy attacks
one after the other.
Presenting the FIM-92F stingers.
Whatever your enemy throws
at you,
this will destroy it.
And as for those travelling
on land
We have the FGM Hunter
to take care of it.
How do you like the sight?
A stunning landscape, fire, smoke
Destruction!
Gorgeous, isn't it, Captain?
Don't you feel like wearing
your uniform
and wielding a gun again?
Not at all.
When watching it
from a distance like a show
war can be so beautiful.
Especially for those
who aren't in it
but make it happen.
If there's paradise on Earth
then this is it!
This is it.
Carry on.
Gentlemen,
before our grand finale
Oslo Convention.
I hope
you don't believe in it.
Presenting my favourite
Smell that, General?
That's the perfume of war.
Napalm.
The perfect weapon
for mass destruction.
It may be banned for the world,
but not for us!
The weapons you saw today
are the most modern
and the most dangerous ones.
They represent absolute power.
The power that flows
from the barrel of a gun.
And now you can have
this power in your hands.
To do as you wish.
You all came here
and gave us your valuable time.
Thanks a lot.
We'll be waiting
for your phone calls.
And more than that,
the phone calls from your bankers.
Bon voyage, my friends! Adios.
Come on, guys. Let's party.
Follow me.
Tighten the ropes!
Come on! Fast, fast!
You're taking too long. Hurry up.
It should be tight.
-Good morning, Patil.
-Morning.
Tighten the ropes.
Where are the arms
being taken?
-Yeah?
-Yeah.
Back to the ship.
From there,
to the central storage.
Where is the central storage?
Captain, come with me.
I I'll just change and come?
You don't need to come along.
You handle the loading
along with Jaffer.
Just the two of us will go.
Come.
The Myanmar party
has offered us a good deal.
They won't find a better deal
after the UN arms sanctions.
Congratulations on the deal.
The deal will be finalised
only when I give my consent.
There was someone else
other than the Tatmadaw last night.
We could have had
the presentation in English,
but we presented in Hindi.
Was it any of our neighbours?
You are very sharp.
There are some guests
who don't need an invitation
and some
who don't believe in borders.
I think you turn right
from there.
Hamza, my dear man, they're friends.
Show some respect.
Mr. Shelly.
I've been so eager to meet you
for a long time.
What a pleasure to meet you.
I have heard a lot about you.
Must be less than how much
I have heard about you.
You wouldn't do business
with me otherwise.
Hi.
It must be my good fortune
that the wind has changed
its course.
Bateel dates?
-No, thank you.
-No, thank you.
Have some. It will keep you cool.
-No, I don't eat Bateel.
-Oh!
By the way, thanks to
your fireworks last night,
there's a rise
in temperature here.
That was quite a show actually.
Thank you, mister
Well, what did the Bard say?
"What's in a name?"
You know
Joaquim
Shaan Mathur
You can give me any name
that's left after all these.
See, new friends, old foes.
We need to take care of everyone.
Mr. Shelly, we're in the
business of making relationships.
Long-term ones.
From the offers that
Major General Aung
and Myanmar Tatmadaw have made,
it is clear
that they're your huge fans.
You seem to be well-informed.
Well we value
your relationship with us.
Let me make you an offer.
Whatever the Tatmadaw has offered
I'll pay you 50 percent more
than that.
That's very kind of you.
So, you can take up this offer
and repay the kindness.
I'll have to
consult my team
-and the Tatmadaw--
-Right, right, right.
You care so much for your client?
It doesn't seem like
this is your last deal.
No problem. Take your time.
But you know what?
Let me just sweeten this deal.
No lawyers.
No commission.
No agent.
No paperwork.
Only trust.
50 percent will be paid in advance,
and the remaining 50 percent
immediately after delivery.
Mr. Shelly, just ensure one thing
that
you don't break our trust.
That's it.
If you don't mind, can I ask you
where you'd be using them?
Uh
Well
You hold a British passport,
right?
So, go around the world.
I would just suggest
that you do not go back
to your country.
India is not safe.
See you, Mr. Shelly.
Joaquim, Mathur, Shaan
Who is he?
Is he from ISIS or Al-Qaeda?
But why did you have to ask him
-where he is going to use them?
-If anything happens
on the Indian mainland,
can you imagine
the kind of heat
that'll be on us?
Sri Lankan, British no passport
will salvage that situation.
Right.
A known devil is better
than an unknown angel.
Tatmadaw it is.
Get Jayu to ready their shipment.
The guy got drunk
and fell in a bloody gutter, man.
As we say in India,
he shat his pants.
Bro.
Come here.
-How was your ride here?
-Good, good.
Ma'am, can I have
your phone, please?
-Madam!
-Take a look at me.
How was your journey?
I hope not too bouncy.
It was fine.
Why was my phone confiscated?
Routine security.
Anyway, there's no network coverage
in this 20-kilometre radius.
Can we leave from here?
All these men are staring at me.
Can't blame them.
BJ darling, how's it going?
-I'm alive.
-Let's celebrate then.
-No, no. Thanks, Chief.
-What say, guys?
Everyone took a break from me,
so I decided
to take a break from drinking.
BJ and sober?
I never thought I'd live to hear
these two words together.
Give me a moment, guys.
My lady needs some love.
Please give me your phone.
I know the rules.
But my lovebird
will call to serenade me.
I'll need the phone then.
All right?
You can also hear her song
on the loudspeaker if you want.
I'll have to check with the Chief.
Don't worry. That special song
will be for the Chief only.
Shaan, my darling.
Mixing business with pleasure.
This is not Shelly's style.
He has still called all of us here,
in the middle of nowhere.
Or has he called us here
because it is the middle
of nowhere?
If something happens
to someone here,
if someone gets lost,
no one will know.
I'm ready anyway
to give my life or take a life
in the name of friendship.
You give it a thought.
It's too hot here, man.
Hey, it's a power cut!
Go check over there.
What's wrong
with the lights now?
It keeps happening here.
They'll fix it. Relax.
"Relax." Really?
Here? In this army base?
Shelly, you saw the way
all the men were staring at me.
So what?
I thought you were used to it
during your modelling days.
By the way, you are the one
who wanted to come with me.
So, why are you complaining now?
Well, you seem slightly edgy
of late.
If there's anything you want to say,
just tell me.
You'll feel light.
I don't know what you mean.
Why did you go into my study?
What are you talking about?
No, I didn't.
Tell me. Tell me the truth.
It'll be fine.
This is ridiculous. I don't know
what you're talking about.
Look, K
I don't like hurting you.
But the truth is
you are hurting me
by lying to me.
I beg of you, don't hurt me.
Just tell me.
Who did you give the list to?
What list?
I swear to God, I have no idea.
To GV?
To RAW?
Who did you give the list to?
Till now, those soldiers
were just staring at you, love
-Chief.
-What!
There's a problem
with the generator, Chief.
Go and fucking fix it!
Somebody cut the wire, Chief.
Think of an answer
by the time I return, or else
He hit you?
You can't be here.
He'll be back any moment.
What if he doesn't stop
at just hitting you?
You'll get in trouble.
Just leave.
Kaveri, I promise you.
I'll get you out of here very soon.
I never told you who I work for.
-I work for--
-Don't.
I don't need to know.
I have always
only listened to my head.
For the first time,
I'm listening to my heart.
Kaveri
What do you need?
I had clicked a photo of your list.
But I swear I had no idea
that it could be a problem.
Why click a photo?
I wanted to know what the man
I have been with for so many years
does for a living.
I was curious.
You could've asked me.
Shelly, you never tell me anything.
You don't give a straight answer
whenever I ask you anything.
So, I thought of
figuring it out myself.
I took a photo of the list
and thought
someone may help me with it.
Who?
Who did you show it to?
Who would I show it to?
I could hardly muster up
the courage,
so I deleted it.
-When did you delete it?
-Within a week maybe.
Are you sure you did not
show it to anyone?
I didn't show it
to anyone, Shelly. I swear.
You know that I am careless
with my phone.
Even BJ had told me
to not leave it just anywhere.
Was your phone with BJ?
No. He found it somewhere
and returned it.
I am so stupid. I am so sorry.
I had no idea
that it would cause you problems.
I I didn't know.
I am sorry.
There is no problem
that can't be solved.
It's okay.
No more secrets.
Henceforth, you won't hide
anything from me.
I love you, K.
I love you, too.
Let us call BJ here
and ask him what he did
with your phone.
In your presence,
he won't be able to lie.
Oh, my
I'd have prayed for your long life
on this moonlit night
if I were your wife.
What are you doing here?
Come.
Come, come
Let's have a chat with Shelly.
I had warned you, my dear.
You didn't listen to me.
Let go
I'll kill you!
Hey! Who's there?
What's happening?
-Hey--
-Call the boss!
Quick!
He cut the fence
and tried to flee.
I chased him. He shot at me.
He's no more, Chief.
I had no choice.
BJ.
BJ darling
Nobody should find out
he was here.
Dispose of the body
with care.
He was a friend.
-Mr. Khan.
-Yes.
On 14th February,
you sent a requisition
for Rs. 2.7 million.
Please have a look.
The funds were released to you.
And at your behest,
Mr. Gaikwad made
a temporary entry
for Uzbekistan.
Mr. Khan, could you explain
where you utilised these funds?
Yes Just a minute
Looks like Mr. Khan is going to
need more time.
Meanwhile, Mrs. Saikia Rao
In the month of March,
you availed a long medical leave.
Can you give a reason?
Of course, I can.
But actually
it's pregnancy related.
I'm not sure
if you want to hear about
my ovaries and uterus.
-You know what I mean.
-Yeah, I can understand.
Actually, we're interested
in Gurgaon Girls.
A tour package from
a travel company in Karol Bagh.
New Delhi to Colombo.
And the flight manifest of
flight number 176
Both of these have your name.
Have a look.
If this was not an official visit,
then we'll need to see
the details of the account
from where you made
these payments.
Correct.
Mr. Khan, please check this too.
The funds were procured
in the name of Kazakhstan, Iran,
Afghanistan and Vietnam.
What happened to those funds?
Yes, sir.
Sir, can we take
a five-minute break?
Sitting for too long
Sorry, sir. Actually,
there's an alarm on my phone.
I am diabetic.
If I don't take my insulin shot
right now,
I'll start feeling dizzy.
Please excuse me, okay?
I'll be right back.
He did it, Danish.
Trucks loaded with weapons.
Military trucks
loaded with ammunition,
illegal arms
and even landmines.
It's approaching Dubai Port.
You needed hard proof, right?
We can catch Shelly
red-handed now.
Out!
You've lost your mind.
No, no. Listen to me.
This proves nothing.
What's the proof that this info
is not a trap?
No, no. Okay, listen. Fine.
Let's assume
that the info is genuine.
So what? Who do we take it to?
Who do we show it to?
Once what's going on in there
is over,
no one will listen to us,
Lipika.
Mark my words.
Your American friends?
-What?
-Your American friends will listen.
They like you.
Out!
-What happened?
-Ma'am, bathroom
Oh, yes.
They like you. Just say--
Sorry.
Done?
Just drop
an anonymous tip.
You won't rest until I've gone
to jail, will you, Lipika?
Danish,
when these weapons
claim lives, the only ones
responsible for it
will be you and I.
I can deal with failure,
but not this.
Fuck!
-Okay, now get me eyes on the convoy.
-Sure, sir.
-Do we have it?
-Checking, sir.
-Almost there.
-Second one on the right, yeah.
Estimated time of arrival?
Anytime now, Chief.
The trucks are about to
reach Dubai Port.
Satellite footage is up.
ETA, six minutes, Chief.
-Madhu, bring Kaveri here.
-Yes, Chief.
Mr. Danish Khan.
You hired
a private telephone company
to track some international calls.
Whose calls were you tracking
and why?
The trucks are at Dubai Port, Chief.
They will reach the ship
in three minutes.
You sent for me?
Yes. I was missing you, darling.
Come, I want to show you something.
Where is BJ?
BJ was not feeling well,
and he was also in a rush.
So, he left.
But you be here with me,
darling.
I want to keep my near
and dear ones
close to me.
Our trucks have reached
the ship, Chief.
Prepping to load the cargo.
Where in Colombo
did you stay
and for how many days?
Actually, I feel claustrophobic
in hotels
since you can't open
the windows.
So, I prefer homestays.
Check the bills.
This says 500.
Hands behind your heads!
Get down!
Get down!
-Yes?
-There's a US military raid.
Sir, the US military
has raided the dock.
Open all the trucks right now!
-Come on!
-Open up!
Open up! Open up right now!
Check the truck. Go, go, go!
Open up right now!
Get in the truck!
Shelly, what do we do now?
What's wrong, Shelly?
Pull that goddamn curtain up
right now!
Mrs. Lipika Saikia Rao.
In May, you pulled special favours.
Can you please explain to us why?
Pull that goddamned curtain up
right now!
Faster! Faster!
Only barrels here, sir.
Look inside.
Check for weapons inside.
Open them up. Open them all.
What's in the barrel?
Topple the barrel.
Topple it.
Topple that right now!
There're no weapons in here, sir!
Only goddamn oil.
Sir.
Not even one single weapon
in this whole bloody truck.
It's just freaking oil.
-Hello?
-Sir, cargo clear.
Fantastic!
-Cargo cleared.
-What?
They're on the way, sir.
Shelly, how do you do this?
You're a bloody genius, man! Fuck!
Well done, bro!
How did you like my magic trick,
Captain?
K, darling. This is what I do.
Oil shipments for
the power shortage in Sri Lanka.
Trying to save the world,
but people suspect my intentions.
Come, let's go.
But how?
I thought
I'll call you back later.
Lipi
I will report his name
to the commission.
Tomorrow.
This is over.
Everyone was focussed
on the cups.
No one paid attention
to the ball.
There were only as many weapons
at the base
as needed for the auction.
The rest never got off the ship.
The ship carrying the weapons
is still in international waters.
You knew they were watching you,
and you used it against them.
The Indian Intelligence
can't even touch me.
Nor can their spy.
Now, from here,
back to Lanka?
The deal isn't over yet.
There's a lot to be done.
We're headed to the same place
as the arms.
Myanmar.
You need some rest.
Big day coming up.
A lot has happened
in the past two days.
It'll be hard to fall asleep.
Sleep easy, Captain.
I've taken care of everyone
and everything.
What's happening, baby?
Oh, come on!
How many times will you
raid my place?
Fuck!
Naren?
Lipi
Naren! Naren, what happened?
Oh, God! What happened?
No Say something.
Mr. Shelly wants to know
your friend's name.
Tell me your agent's name.
Who is it? Give me a name!
Mr. Shelly wants a name.
Speak up!
Good morning, Mr. Shelly.
We'll be landing shortly
at the Hazrat Shahjalal
International Airport, Dhaka.
The temperature outside
is 32 degree Celsius.
With 40% chances of rain.
Kindly keep your seat belts fastened.
Hope you had a pleasant flight.
Where are we staying?
We're almost there.
That's the hotel.
