Hey, Aayesha. What's up?
Hey, where are you?
Never mind about that. How was your date yesterday night?
I found that even boys have something to say if you listen long enough...
Oh yeah? What did he have to say?
Oh, c'mon. It was just the first date. I'm sure he was lying just to keep me interested in the second date.
So, are you going?
Of course!
Oh my! God knows how you put up with such guys.
At this rate, you're never gonna find a guy you want to marry.
Speaking of which, guess what my 10 yr old nephew had to say on the subject of marriage?
What?
So, I asked him how will you decide whom to marry?
And he said, you got to find somebody who likes the same stuff as you do.
Like, if you like sports, she should like it that you like sports, and keep the chips and dips coming.
Anyways, I'm not on bluetooth so let's continue this when we meet. And Aayesha, don't forget the book.
Oh my god! Police!!! I am going to jail!
Bapi, what's that pretty looking building?
It's a court, my dear.
What's a court, Bapi?
A court is a body, often a governmental institution, with the authority to adjudicate legal dispute ...
... and dispense civil, legal, and administrative justice in accordance with the rules of the law.
A what???
Just stay away from that place. Not a good place to be at.
But I kind of like the building. It's pretty!
But that's not the point. People from good families don't go there.
Soooo... can I at least wander near that court place?
But why do you want to go to the court?
I don't.
Grrreat! Well, always keep that in mind. STAY AWAY from the court.
Are you alright, ma'm?
You know I was in the car next to you before you ran through the red light.
It's because I was on the phone.
It was yellow.
What was yellow?
The red light was yellow.
License and registration, please!
Sir, this is my first time. Can you just give me a warning please?
Warning! You want a warning? O.K. I'm warning you not to do it again or I'll write you another ticket.
Okay, so tell me how handsome the cop was?
Did you get his number?
Yeah. 9-1-1.
Is that toll free?
No! It's going to cost me four hundred and sixty-one bucks!
Oh, that's terrible!
461? Did you know, four-hundred-sixty-one is the number of ways to stack eighteen pennies in contiguous rows...
so that each penny lies on the table or on two pennies?
No, I did not. Thanks for the enlightenment.
For gods sake, guys. Help me!
Okay, first things first. We have to go shopping.
Your shoes, your dress, your makeup, has to be court-ready!
Bryan has a point. You gotta look your absolute best...
as if it's your wedding day.
And the Geek Pride Day.
No!!!
Shut up Naveen. We're trying to help our friend here.
Look Lopi, just make your lips irresistible to the judge.
Remember red, sumptuous lips with a subtle hue of color.
I like your eyes, they're some killer eyes but you got to decorate them up.
Eye shadow, mascara, and don't forget the eyeliner.
You could do that or you could look like a poor helpless immigrant.
It's California. Chances are the judge is an immigrant; he'll understand your plight and --
And what? Adopts me. Thanks guys for all your suggestions. I couldn't be more grateful.
Don't forget the eyeliner.
Look Lopi, just make your lips irresistible to the judge.
Remember red, sumptuous lips with a subtle hue of color.
Lord Ganesha, you must not know much about automobiles or traffic rules or the courts,...
but I'm sure you remember what happened on March fifteenth at twenty-three minutes past three in the afternoon in Santa Clara.
I was on the phone... not using my bluetooth.
And I ran the red light.
But! Nobody got hurt. So, not a big deal, right?
I never complain...when the cops park their cars on the red curb...
...just to avoid a long walk to their favorite sushi restaurant.
Talking of sushi, Lord, why didn't you enlighten the Japanese with a concept of a grill?
What's the point of eating raw meat if you're at the top of the food chain?
And, the other day, the cop had double parked!
Should a good citizen ignore violations by the enforcers themselves?
I am a good person because I have forgiven them.
Why can't they just forgive me?
Show them the path of righteousness and help me avoid that 461 dollars fine...
So that I can buy that Coach purse I have set my eyes on.
chanting...
Yesterday, I was at a party, and we were talking about Indian weddings, and rituals and customs, and ...
I couldn't help but notice that whenever people talked about Indian weddings they always talked about arrange marriages,...
...although love marriages are just as prevalent in almost all societies in India.
I would love to hear your views and opinions about love marriage vs. arranged marriage and what would you prefer.
So, pick up your phone and call me.
Hello there. You're live on air.
Hi Ruchika. How are you?
My name is Superstar Venkat, and I'm a big big big fan of your show and you.
Sure Venkat. Go ahead.
There are two types of marriages. One is love marriage, another one is arranged marriage.
Arranged marriage is like going to a restaurant, and ordering the best item from the menu.
That's an interesting way to look at it. So, what would a love marriage be in this analogy?
Love marriage is self-cooking.
So, let me guess...you prefer...an arrange marriage?
Bingo!
Alright Venkat. Thanks for sharing your opinion. We move on to the next caller.
Hi there. You're live on air.
Hey Ruchika. How are you?
Hey, that's Aayesha's voice!
I am doing fine. May I know who is calling?
Oh, this is Lopamudra.
Why is she using my name?
Hi Lopamudra. So what would you prefer? Would you prefer a love marriage or an arranged marriage?
I just wish to be married - who cares if it's love or arranged. Just get me married!
Uh huh. That's why.
Hello, hello?
I think we lost our caller there. Moving on to our next caller.
No, you didn't lose me. You hung up on me!
You know what, I am going to get married soon, very soon,...
...and by the way, you are not invited!
Trust in God, but always lock your car!
First case. Mr. Kevin McLove, please approach the bench.
Mr. McLove. You have been charged with driving at a speed in excess of... ninety-one miles an hour!
The posted speed limit, Mr. McLove, is sixty-five. How do you plead?
Not guilty, your honor.
You are also charged with a D-U-I.
You tested at one-point-six. That's twice the legal limit, sir.
How do you plead?
Not guilty.
While driving a stolen car...
Not guilty.
With a broken headlight.
Not my fault, your honor.
Why is that?
It isn't my car.
How do you plead?
Obviously not guilty.
I think its safe to say, Mr. McLove, that you are going to need a lawyer and you're gonna need a checkbook.
Ms. Lo-pam-ud-ra. Please approach the bench.
Ms. Mudra, you are charged with running a red light at El Camino Real and Pomeroy.
How do you plead?
Its LOPA-MUDRA, your honor.
Okay. How would you like to plead, Ms. LOPA-MOODRA?
Not MOO-DRA. MU-DRA, your honor.
Your plea!?
No contest, no contest, your honor.
Very well. Would you consider a traffic school?
Oh Yes, your honor.
And I'll be an honor student, and pass the test with flying colors.
Alright. I am fining you 210 dollars.
Pay the Clerk, credit cards or cash only. Then you are free to leave.
Sir, could you please consider reducing my fine? Because it's my first violation and I really didn't mean it.
Ms. Lopamudra, the 210 fine is 251 dollars less than the original fine of 461 dollars.
You do the math, okay?
That's right. Thank you, your honor.
Here you go.
Ah! You finally got the book.
Get Ready to Dump. So is this book any good?
Of course. Now I have a plan.
Wait a second. This is from India.
Bapi, I'm fine. I was just having some tea now.
When did they release you from the jail?
Bapi! I never went to jail.
I just went to the court for a trial.
So, you won?
No, Bapi.
You lost the case, and they let you go.
Yes, Bapi.
Lopi, why does it feel that you're hiding something?
Bapi, I am a citizen of a free country now, and I have rights.
Rights to do wrong things and get away?
But I didn't get away. I had to...
Enough, enough, enough. You have embarrassed your family, and me personally.
Your mom has been crying for two whole days.
But court wasn't that bad, and The American Courthouse... It's just like...
Just like the one here?
Yes, Bapi.
I miss you, Lopi.
I love you, Bapi.
So Aayesha, tell me your new plan.
Girls are chatting excitedly about how to get a guy to marry you in 21 days or less!
When I left the courthouse, I realized that I never want to go back there ever again.
I wonder what my cop is up to now?
I didn't exactly make my parents proud...
...but then again...
You wouldn't believe what just happened!
No way!
