He can hear you. He will box

your ears

So? What will He say?

''Sharpen your wits, get a haircut.

Become a good man''

Slow down! What's the hurry?

Aren't we late for Nagarcoil?

The bustle there, the noise...

You ride a priest's bike

to college to flirt?

You were happy advising me,

now you're scolding me

Come on, Father. Relax!

care of your bike

Nice try!

Stay here till l return

You blindly entered it

in the register

Just wait. Let the Bishop come.

Chetty, this is a church. No violent

talk here. Calm down

Give me that register.

Most mothers tell their children

who their father is

Hear me out

What the hell?

She was a whore,

buried in a wasteland

He's her son.

Satan's spawn

Born in sin.

He'll die in sin

Why allow him into the church?

Why protect him?

He's the son of Jesus.

God's child

Then register Jesus as his father.

Damn you

Chetty, mind your tongue

You buried the lame woman

The whole village knows

l buried ten stray dogs too. Are

their puppies my offspring?

Ok, l will dig them all up

l'll do whatever it takes

l'll pay you anything

Money, money!

Am l a whore like

your mother?

You'll buy me with money?

But l really believed...

Better you die

Chetty, enough!

You worm, get out!

Chetty, go

Happy now? Why bring this

on yourself?

Chetty!

Who's there?

Who are you?

Bergmans!

Get up, Bergmans

Chandi Mary

Who is it? Father?

At this hour?

Please come with me

The child is sleeping. There's

food cooking

l need a favour. Come

Father, where are we going?

A man is hurt, Mary. l need

your help

lt looks like a Mesakaaran

He controls the coastline. The

police are in his pocket

Hold this for me

Press hard.

He's bleeding badly

lt could be murder.

Let's dump him on the shore

He's been shot

But l told you.

He's a Mesakaaran

He's important to me

l owe him

Bergmans, it's Sam.
