"What is this supposed to be?" Kunjan asked, not understanding the purpose behind what Lonappan was showing him. He wasn't kidding when he said that this was unlike the other ones. This didn't have any sorta nudity, so he was intrigued.

"Oh, it's nothing much though. I just compiled a few scenes from Indian cinematic and television history that I thought you would like." He replied. However, with all the smiles he pulled up while saying that, Kunjan had a hard time believing his word in the beginning. A few minutes later though, it seemed as if his words were true after all. How, it took a few more minutes for it to turn all wonky.

"Stop right there.! How can she still talk after getting hit by a bullet? That's crazy and stupid at the same time!" This was the beginning of the unraveling of the alien named Plankton #69420. In the next few moments, one could hear stuff like,

"Did that guy just jump into the train which has electric lines on the top and ran the same path the train was going and eventually overtook the freaking train and saved the child by the nick of time? Does physics not affect this man?"

"Is she even suitable to be a sniper when she's closing the wrong eye?"

"How did that guy kill the others with a freaking banana?"

"Oh, my goodness? Did she just hand-wash a freaking laptop?"

And,

"How long is that car gonna spin on air like this?', among many other remarks. By the end of it, Kunjan began questioning almost everything he knew. It was unbearable; so unbearable that the war veteran Kunjan had to plead with him to stop. "Please, stop this! It's seriously insulting my intelligence. No more, or I'll forever be an idiot!" He cried.

Lonappan sighed. "Shoot. I was gonna make you watch a few soap operas too, however since you look like you lost as well, you can go now." He replied.

"If it's soap operas, I'm fine with watching it." The one unfazed throughout the entire journey, Taro spoke. Soap operas weren't a problem for him. Of course, initially he had some problems watching it. But as time went through, he grew immune to it, just as Lonappan was to it. Maybe, he even started to enjoy it quite a bit.

"No, no! That was for Kunjan. Well, if you had the tiniest bit of expression during any other time, I'd have made you watch it, however since you didn't, I'm taking the last resort." Lonappan spoke as he ejected the USB device from the television and turned on the cable television.

"Why did you take the USB out, huh? You got nothing for me there?" Taro asked.

"Just wait! It's the perfect timing, you know? I never expected such impeccable timing! Like, them dropping out at them timing they did was all to lead you to this moment. I'll introduce you to prime time news!" Lonappan spoke as he pointed towards the television, where people from Different in what way?different places were talking to each other.. Well, talking is an understatement. They were literally arguing against each other ever since the show started. Soon, Taro learned that the ones arguing were politicians. He could even see one from WPP.

Although it was all fine in the beginning, when the show got into the half-hour mark, Taro's mouth was twitching in annoyance. Lonappan noticed this pretty quickly and smiled. "You know who's the most annoying personality on the planet. That will be politicians and them alone. You know how I know that? Well, I'm a party member too. I've been near these guys. They are ANNOYING to the punch! I'll tell you something. No matter if one survived till the end like you did or all four, this was always gonna be the end point. Us Keralites, who have been watching this shit for years are immune to it, unlike you, who just started watching this. I had a good time today." Lonappan spoke, upon which Taro stood from his seat.

"I lost. I lost clean. Good game!" He extended his hand and Lonappan shook on it. Taro's case was Different in what way?different unlike the other three. While they were wailing by the end, Taro was much more civilized when admitting his defeat. He didn't feel disgusted, hurt or confused, he was purely annoyed. Lonappan hit a nail in his case. This was why he was really happy when he heard that Abhirami annoyed the hell out of him, and he was exhausted due to it. It was similar in this case as well. After getting up from his seat.. away from the debate on the television, he was mentally exhausted. He headed to his room and went to sleep, an event that happens once in a blue moon.

In the end, Lonappan was satisfied. The consequences event was cleared with a clean sweep. He couldn't help but feel proud about doing such a thing in such a short amount of time. So, with the satisfaction in his hand, he headed back to his house to have a good night's sleep.

Early morning the next day; Lonappan was asked to pick up John, who stayed with Ponnappan in the base last night. Well, stuck would be a better way to explain it. Ponnappan didn't speak to him even once. He was so busy in work that John ended up helping in some of it. By the end of it, it felt like they made a solid team. John went to bed when the clock struck ten because it had been a routine for him. However, Ponnappan somehow managed to forget about sleeping as he engulfed himself with work. John was a bit annoyed about the light in John's room, however he didn't want to ruin his flow of work. So, he ended up sleeping in a room far away from Ponnappan's room.

Anyway, by the time Lonappan reached his office, Ponnappan looked spent. He never thought he'd be working unceasingly, so when he actually did that his eyes were this close into sleeping. Noticing this, he placed the important papers away from himself as he feared that he might mess them up and went to sleep. Obviously, his sleep was disrupted by Lonappan, so he glared at his subordinate like he was gonna kill him in any given second.

"What?" Lonappan asked as he noticed the glare.

Ponnappan sighed. It was his fault in staying up late anyway, so he decided not to take the anger out on Lonappan. "Nothing. How was your day yesterday? Did you have fun?" Ponnappan asked, to which Lonappan smiled and recollected the entire events that happened the last day. By the end of the summary of the events that Lonappan gave, Ponnappan was thoroughly impressed. "Damn, to think that you'd aim at their personal weakness like that.." He applauded Lonappan's efforts.

"Meh, it wasn't much. I had someone inside noticing even the minute things they did and minor fluctuations they had in their behavior when certain things happened. So, I've got to thank him as well for my flawless retribution. Upon getting a clear idea on that, it was simpler to guess what would work with one person and what wouldn't. Well, all except one though. Thankappan's one was simply based on human behavior and disgust people had for that particular video. I had to band him with other human beings because his behavior was a bit bizarr, if you were to ask me. Like, it fluctuates in a speed that it's useless to grab on a single point and hang on it. Honestly, it was a gamble. Thankfully, that worked, which also means that he needs more training to tolerate all sorts of stuff." Lonappan replied.

"Hmm, maybe we should grab all the inexperienced officials in this place and organize a toleration session for them?" Ponnappan asked. Basically, he meant that he would like for his subordinates to suffer mental torture.

"That would be ideal." Lonappan agreed to it as well. And thus, the two maniacs joined hands in organizing one of the most disturbing sessions for the newbies. If only someone else knew at that time, they would've tried stopping them before they team up like this.

"By the way, the insider you spoke of before, is it that canino guy in room #306? You didn't speak about him, so I naturally believed that he would be the spy for you." Ponnappan spoke.

Lonappan nodded his head. "You're right. M'Baku wasn't part of the consequences list, so I seek out his help on this event. And I have to say that he did a pretty great job with that. I recommend him if any stakeout missions come by. He could literally act himself and no one would bat an eye." He replied.

"I'll take that into consideration. By the way, since you seem to have fun mentally torturing people yesterday, I'd like to inform you that the torture master position is still-" Ponnappan's dialogue was cut short by Lonappan.

"Not interested in revisiting my past." He replied.

"Hmm, I guessed that would be the case. Then how about a brief cameo of the torture master for a day, when that tolerance class comes by. I'd like it if the newbies learn about the legend of the torture master as well." He smiled.

"Hmm, maybe I can do it just that once.." Lonappan agreed to the notion. The poor MIB newbies had no idea that such a big event happened behind their backs.
