Ace up the sleeve

Web Series : Naked | Ace up the sleeve | Season 1 Episode 8

Sapna hijacks the Rishabh Mehta murder case from Suraj. She even gets all his team members on her side. News channels flash the breaking headline that Suraj started dating Natasha during the investigation of her former flame’s death. As he enters home, Suraj finds his parents finding out about the affair. His mother slaps him while his father feels ashamed. He asks Suraj to pack his bags and leave. Suraj pleads for forgiveness but all in vain. Vijay lets Suraj stay in his spare flat. The next morning Suraj visits Natasha. She hugs him tight and says she won’t let him go anywhere. But Suraj disagrees and says it is not the right time for them to be seen together. Natasha’s lawyer too agrees and suggests they stick to solving the case now. Natasha asserts that she is a broken girl who cannot be fixed and thus, is surprised to see someone making so many sacrifices for her. Suraj replies saying he is broken too. Sapna goes to Surinder’s house and begins looking for the girl’s body he hid years ago, as stated by Natasha. A search at his residence also reveals a knife stained in blood, covered with a tissue. Skeletons are found in his backyard, which belonged to the same escort he had murdered a decade ago. Surinder denies committing any of these crimes and affirms he was with his wife on the night Rishabh was killed. Sapna confirms the same with his wife who reveals that he woke up in the middle of the night, left and never came back until next morning. Surinder’s wife apologises to Natasha for not being able to help her earlier. But is Surinder the real culprit?
