### **SCENE 1 — BLACK SQUAD HQ, BRIEFING ROOM — MORNING**

**INT. BRIEFING ROOM**

Sunlight filters through partially drawn blinds, casting slanted shadows across the room. On the table are open case files, old photographs, and a large monitor displaying a still frame of a masked figure—Herpeet Dongra. ACP Qazi stands at the head, arms crossed, his sharp gaze scanning the team as they enter.

**QAZI:**

*"Everyone, sit."*

Imran and Arjun take their seats. Sachin pulls up a chair, still adjusting his laptop bag. Dr. R.P. Gupta enters last, holding a sealed envelope and a faintly worried expression.

**QAZI:**

*"Last night, we received an unauthorized video call routed directly to Zoya's line. The number was masked, the encryption sophisticated, and the trace incomplete."*

He taps the table, and Sachin switches the monitor to display the video. The playback begins.

**HERPEET (distorted voice):**

*"Did you miss me, Zoya? The game was never over. I've always been watching…"*

The playback ends abruptly. The silence in the room is heavy.

**IMRAN:**

*"It's him. Herpeet Dongra."*

**SACHIN (frowning):**

*"But we caught Dongra—he's been in prison since Episode 3."*

**QAZI (grimly):**

*"Or so we thought. Gupta, what do you have for us?"*

Dr. Gupta places the sealed envelope on the table, his voice hesitant.

**DR. GUPTA:**

*"I'll need time to confirm, but… I suspect the DNA records from Dongra's arrest might've been… falsified."*

The team exchanges alarmed glances.

**QAZI (sharp):**

*"Imran, Sachin—get to the prison. I want every record rechecked, every file reopened. Now."*

---

### **SCENE 2 — PRISON RECORDS OFFICE — DAY**

**INT. HIGH-SECURITY PRISON, RECORDS ROOM**

Dust motes float in the dim light of a cluttered office. Metal file cabinets line the walls, each labeled with peeling paint. A tired Warden sits behind a desk, clearly annoyed by the unannounced visit.

**IMRAN:**

*"We need the original biometric and DNA verification files from Herpeet Dongra's arrest. Now."*

The Warden shifts uncomfortably, glancing at a locked cabinet.

**WARDEN (reluctant):**

*"That case is sealed. Ministry orders."*

Sachin steps forward, his tone clipped.

**SACHIN:**

*"Unseal it. Or I'll make the call to your superior."*

Under pressure, the Warden retrieves the files. Imran flips through them, his sharp eyes scanning each page.

**IMRAN (narrowing eyes):**

*"No DNA cross-match report."*

He flips to another page.

**IMRAN (CONT'D):**

*"And no biometric match confirmation either."*

Sachin leans over, his face tense.

**SACHIN:**

*"This isn't negligence. It's deliberate forgery."*

They exchange a grim look.

### **SCENE 3 — BLACK SQUAD FORENSICS LAB — EVENING**

**INT. HQ FORENSICS LAB**

The lab glows with cold, fluorescent light. Dr. Gupta meticulously compares blood samples using advanced forensic equipment. On one monitor, the original DNA profile from Episode 3; on another, the sample from the prison inmate.

A progress bar crawls across the screen. Tension builds. Finally, the results flash: *"MATCH: 0%."*

**DR. GUPTA (shouting):**

*"Qazi sir, you need to see this!"*

Qazi enters, his expression expectant.

**DR. GUPTA (CONT'D):**

*"The DNA doesn't match. The man in prison isn't Herpeet Dongra."*

**QAZI (jaw tightening):**

*"Then who the hell did we catch?"*

---

### **SCENE 4 — PRISON INTERROGATION ROOM — NIGHT**

**INT. INTERROGATION ROOM**

A dim lightbulb swings gently from the ceiling, casting shifting shadows across the face of the supposed Herpeet Dongra, who sits shackled to the table. His smirk is infuriatingly calm.

Imran and Arjun enter, both radiating barely contained anger.

**IMRAN (coldly):**

*"Who are you?"*

The man leans back, his smirk widening.

**FAKE HERPEET:**

*"Does it matter? I was paid to play the role. A damn good actor, don't you think?"*

Arjun slams his fists on the table.

**ARJUN (furious):**

*"Who hired you?! Talk!"*

The man chuckles, shaking his head.

**FAKE HERPEET:**

*"Orders came from a voice. Called himself… Oracle."*

The name lands like a bombshell. Imran's face hardens.

**IMRAN (low, to Arjun):**

*"Oracle… Zain's old alias."*

Arjun exhales, his hands curling into fists.

**ARJUN:**

*"Then someone's digging up old ghosts."*

---

### **SCENE 5 — HQ WAR ROOM — NIGHT**

**INT. WAR ROOM**

The team regroups in front of a large digital display, showing timelines and connections between cases. Sachin highlights anomalies in prison records and the video call encryption.

**SACHIN:**

*"The same VPN protocol was used in both the forged arrest records and the video call. Someone's been protecting the real Dongra for years."*

**SHREYA:**

*"This isn't just a random mistake. It's a cover-up at the highest level."*

**QAZI:**

*"And now they're coming out of the shadows."*

---

### **SCENE 6 — LAST SCENE: ZOYA'S APARTMENT — NIGHT**

**INT. ZOYA'S APARTMENT**

The room is quiet, dimly lit. Zoya sits on the couch, scrolling through old squad photos on her phone. Her expression softens—until her phone rings.

**ZOYA:**

*"Hello?"*

The screen glitches. A familiar masked figure appears, his voice heavily distorted.

**HERPEET (V.O.):**

*"Did you miss me, Zoya?"*

Zoya freezes, her knuckles white as she grips the phone.

**ZOYA (coldly):**

*"You son of a bitch."*

**HERPEET (V.O.):**

*"I'm back."*

The call cuts abruptly. Zoya sets her jaw, reaching for her badge.

**ZOYA (to herself):**

*"Not for long."*

FADE OUT.

*TO BE CONTINUED…*
