Episode 8 - Farzi Season 1 -

Michael freezes. “Why would you tell me that?”

“You will. Because tomorrow, he’s going to arrest your cousin in Pune. Unless you tell your bosses that Mathur is dirty – that he takes bribes from the real counterfeiters. Your bosses will feed that lie to Michael. And Michael will waste a week chasing a ghost.”

“NO!” Michael screams.

Sunny steps out, hands up. Mansoor stays in the cab, holding the hard drive. Zara is gone – slipped out the side door into the darkness. Farzi Season 1 - Episode 8

“Unless what?” Sunny turns.

Sunny leans close, whispers: “Because the system doesn’t punish the rich who launder money. It punishes the poor who print it. I wanted to show you that your whole war – it’s a performance. Just like my notes.”

“I have a problem,” Mansoor says, sliding a photo across the table. “This man – ACP Mathur – he’s been asking about your network. Says he’s from Anti-Corruption Bureau.” Michael freezes

Sunny doesn’t answer. He pulls out a fresh canvas – but instead of paint, he sketches a face. A face no one in the room recognizes. A ghost.

“Is it?” Sunny smiles – broken, brilliant. “You chased a ghost for three days, Michael. You still don’t know where the real plates are. You don’t know who Zara is. And you don’t know why I really did this.”

Sunny’s hands shake as he feeds the next sheet. “No. I’m an artist. And this is my masterpiece.” A knock on Michael’s car window. It’s Feroz’s younger brother, Danish – a boy no one remembered. He holds a crumpled printout.
