Traffic woes in Mumbai, is something every Mumbaikar swears by. And here Naina is no different, as she is getting highly irritated by the long traffic. From the last one hour or so, her car is not moving a bit, which results in her getting hyper, but it is of no use as it seems.

They arrived in India, 5 - 6 hours ago, but he had to go finish a important task, so she is travelling alone to her destination. Though they have a full proof plan, she have her own doubts, which makes her restless and uneasy too!

Just then, she gets a ping from him to check her purse and she does, only to find her medicine. She smiles, as she recalls telling him of taking it, when they had parted at the airport but in reality she didn't. And he actually knew it, it amazes her, as she takes it. She just wishes all goes according to the plan, and finally to her relief traffic gets cleared.

The board meeting is about to start, when Naina reaches there, just in time. She greets everyone and sits besides Karan purposefully. Vijay is aware about the plan, as he asks her, how is she now!

'Dad, my nose is blocked and I can't breath! Remember last time you brought mint sweets; they helped me clear my congestion. I wish I had some now,' she says loud enough for Karan to hear. 'This are not so good. They are of no help!'  She pulls out an open packet of mint flavored throat lozenges. 

'Do you mind if I try a few, I am also battling with a cold?' Karan asked her.

'Surely! Be my guest,' she drops 4 into his open hand and he puts all, at once into his mouth. 

'Could you tell me the name?' Karan again asked her.

She makes a loud, crinkling sound with the packet, trying to find the "name", but all she did was disturb the meeting. 'Got it, it says K CN!'

'WHAT?' He stands up from his chair and pulls the packet from her. Indeed the label said, K CN. He looks carefully at the product. It is small, pellet like and white. There i no doubt in his mind that he just consumed POTASSIUM CYANIDE. 'Do you know what is this? You stupid girl!' 

'Mind your language. You can't talk to my daughter-in-law like that,' Vijay said angrily.

'Do you know what she did uncle? She fed me POTASSIUM CYANIDE. SHE POISONED ME!' He holds his stomach in agony. 'I can't breathe, I can't breathe. Dad, call an ambulance!' 

He starts to "collapse" onto the floor. All members present in the meeting, just stares in confusion. Tej sits on the floor beside his son, in tension. He takes out his cell to call paramedics, when Vijay swiftly takes the cell from him. 

'What is this Vijay? Give me the phone, my son is dying,' Tej pleads.

'Then help him Tej, I will give you back this phone, and then you can call for medical assistance. But first tell us what your son did in Rajkot!' Vijay's tone becomes serious. 

Tej looks at his pale son, he is struggling to breathe through his open mouth; sweat beads are forming on his forehead. He decides to go ahead for his sake. 

'Stanley, Anand and Rakesh started the mine. They were too interested in mining gold, so they neglected preparing a DRAINAGE-DITCH for the seepage from the mine. Instead, they diverted the pipes to the village's dam water. I wanted that "GOLD RICH" Rajkot! Karan got his men to put POTASSIUM CYANIDE into the seepage. Easily it got into the dam and people consumed it! We knew that once the deaths would accumulate, there will be an enquiry and Anand and Rakesh will be accused, and we will be the biggest industrialist!'

All are stunned by the confession. The police enters the hall and surrounds the father-son duo. Just then, Sameer came. 'Add another charge, inspector. Murder of many people years ago!'

Karan strains his eyes to see him. All are shocked and surprised to see him alive and well. He bends to his level, 'Karan, admit it. You killed innocent people in college!'

He remains quiet for some time, before giving up. 'I KILLED THEM!'

The police hand cuffed them. 'The ambulance?' Tej asked suddenly.

'Nothing wrong with him. His psycho mind made him "THINK" he is dying. It's just a sweet,' she as she pops one into his mouth. 

The police then takes them away!
