was born to us. -Baby?

-Lakshmi! Are you that scared

of your wife? People who know my wife are

well aware of my fear. Can you give me back my drink? Oh! Sorry. Neat Whiskey. -Nice.

-Thank you, Jenny. How do you know my name? My wife did say that a crazy

person had come home. Now I know, that the person

isn't crazy but a drunkard. Actually, I don't like alcohol. I don't like downers,

only uppers. You know uppers, right? Coke, E, MDMA. Oh! You're teaching a

doctor about drugs? -Oops!

-If at all I write a prescription you can get better drugs, legally. -Really?

-Yeah. Doctor, I've been unwell

for the past two days. Can you prescribe something for me? Sure, I can. A tight slap! At least, get me another drink. Definitely not. Because Jenny doesn't

like downers. "Crazy bird" "Ended up having

Affection for the moon" "Ended up having

Affection for the moon" Hi, little girl. What are you looking at? Jenny! Jenny! Hey, Jenny! -Paul!

-Huh? Jenny fell in to the well,

get me a rope. Quick. What? Krish! Krish! Hey, careful! Paul, do something. Jenny! Come soon, make it fast. Put the rope down. Krish! Krish, take the rope! -Oh God!

-Jenny. -Oh God!

-Jenny. Hot water, quick. -Jenny.

-Move aside, move aside. -Move aside, please.

-Krish. -Give her some space.

-Jenny! -Don't worry.

-Jenny. -Relax.

-Yeah. Jenny! Is she breathing, Krish?

Is she breathing? Jenny, breathe. Just... Jenny. She's fine, she's fine. Relax. Thank God for Krish. -Jenny.

-Get me that blanket. Are you okay? Jenny dear, dad's here. -She's okay. She's okay.

-Dad. Everyone stood there in silence. I don't know why

you had to jump. Sit! You seemed more concerned

about her than her parents. You're crazy! Please remove your shoes. I almost died. You will die of pneumonia. Change your clothes,

I'll get tea. I wonder... Krish! I'm screaming at

the top of my voice. Are you even listening to me? What am I saying and

what are you doing? Let me go. What If something had

happened to you? You never listen. I need you! What time is it? It's 3:00 a.m. Who could it be, at this hour? No idea. Krish, Jenny's got a seizure. Can you please come? Jenny, nothing is wrong with you. Jenny. Colonel, please. Jenny! -Jenny?

-Hold her legs. Jenny! Jenny look at me. Please take her inside. What happened to her? Paul I need a spoon or

anything that could help. Yeah. Father, hold her legs. Jenny! Krish, here's the spoon. Open your mouth. Jenny, open your mouth. Don't let it go, don't. Hold her tight. I'm holding her. She'll be okay, you'll be okay.

Jenny, you'll be okay. Baby. Jenny? Jenny! Jenny! Let go of her legs. Jenny? The house warming party

was a grand fete. All the more reason

for evil eyes. Let her take some rest. Get her to the hospital.

We will run all the required tests. -Okay, thanks.

-Don't worry. -Thanks a lot.

-Anytime. Goodnight. Hey! How did this happen? What? Oh, this. Jenny. Last night. Even I've never

bitten you so hard. No issues. I'm all yours. You can bite now. I'm going to shoot

your maid dead. You... Hi, Krish. Thank you for what you

did for me, last night. Hey! It's okay, Jenny. If you don't mind. I'll see you at the hospital. Bye, aunt. Hi, Krish... bye, aunt. It's getting out of control. Hey. She's just a kid. -Get lost.

-Hey, Lakshmi! Just as I expected, Paul. Everything is normal. Fits, can sometimes occur

without any reason. Not to worry. Physically, Jenny is 100 percent fine. -Thank you, Krish.

-Anytime. Thank you. -Bye.

-Bye. Kitchen knife? Earlier, she lied to me. But she has kept it here. What's wrong with this girl? Ouch! Get out of here. Hello? Lizzie? Hey, Lakshmi! -When did you get here?

-Just now. I think your doorbell isn't working. That's why I came in looking for you. -Really? I'll get it fixed.

-Okay. I came down to invite

you guys for dinner. Don't worry,

I can cook really well. Good. We'll be there for sure. But I'll speak to Paul

and confirm with you. No problem. Great. The bell fixed itself. What happened? Nothing. Okay, I'll leave now.

I will see you tonight for dinner. Oh! I got this chocolate for Sarah. Sarah and Jenny are at the

site with my husband. -Is that so?

-Yes. My work gets easier when

the kids are not around. -Would you like some tea?

-No, thanks. We had ordered 3 propeller

turbines for our new MHP. -What's the status on that?

-It'll be here in the evening. We can start the installation

process by tomorrow. -Okay, thank you. Thanks.

-Sure, sir. Yeah, Lizzie. Lakshmi has invited us

for dinner tonight. I didn't check with

you and agreed to it. No problem, right? Yes, sure. I hope the kids are

not disturbing you. No, not at all. -Okay, see you.

-Okay. -Bye.

-Bye. Hey, Jenny, be careful. Yes, Dad. May I have your attention? Glasses please. -Cheers guys!

-Cheers! Welcome to the Himalayas. -Cheers.

-Thank you. -Hope it's not too spicy.

-Not at all. Everything is perfect. Why didn't Sarah come?

I got pastry for her. Sarah went early to bed. -Oh.

-So, Colonel stayed back with her. So that makes Sarah,

grandad's pet. Absolutely, best friends.

Moreover, they're roommates. -I forgot to ask

-Yes? Are her school admission

formalities done? I had spoken to the principal of

St. Mary's school, yesterday. He assured that it

should be done. Moreover, there's enough time

for the schools to start. -Paul!

-Huh? Tell me. What made you choose this house? I always desired to

own a big house. My dream home! It was in my budget

at the right time. Timing is everything. Yes, it is. Timing! Jenny, what are you doing? I didn't do anything. You don't seem to eat well. She's pecking liking a bird. She does the same

at home as well. -She's playful all the time.

-Please, excuse me. -Sure. Sure.

-Jenny come on eat your food. Don't be shy. You eat such delicious food everyday? How do you stay in shape, Krish? If I ask for such food daily,

I'll get thrashed. It's been specially made for you guys. Oh! Did you hear what

he said about you? -Would you like some?

-Yeah, please. -No, no, no. I'm full.

-Just one more spoon. Thank you. Thanks. You don't have to,

I'll clear the table. It's okay, I don't mind. How's the Power Plant

Project coming through? Not bad at all. We've got the permission

for the second one. Installation will

start tomorrow. That's great. Get done as much you can, before winter. Last year, the roads were closed for

2 weeks due to heavy snowfall. -Oh!

-I couldn't go to the hospital. -Is it that bad?

-Yeah. Jenny!

What happened? -Dad!

-What happened? -Lizzie!

-Dad! -What happened, Jenny?

-Jenny there's nothing. There's nothing. Why don't come here? Why don't you look for yourself? What happened? There's nothing, dear.

There's nothing. I think she saw something. There's nothing. -Dad, I really did see something.

-Jenny! I'm sorry, Krish. I'll see you tomorrow. It's fine, no issues. Goodnight. I wonder what she saw. Paul. What's the time? What's your dad upto? Dad! Dad! Jenny? Even I heard it, Dad. You won't hear it anymore. Go to bed. Ma'am, is this your phone? -Huh? No.
