Black Squad – Episode 82

Title: "Qazi vs Qazi"

(One is justice. The other, a weapon. The world only has room for one of them. As Black Squad prepares for war, Zain Qazi must confront the ghost of his own blood.)

---

[COLD OPEN – UNKNOWN BIO-FACILITY | NIGHT]

Inside a white sterile room. A man wakes inside a cryo chamber. Built like Qazi. Same face. Same voice.

He opens his eyes. Monitors beep.

> Subject-06: Vital Status – Optimal. Psychological Conditioning – 78% Recovered.

A MOD scientist leans in, whispering:

> "Zain Qazi died in Episode 64. You are all that's left now."

He places a gun in Subject-06's hand.

> "Raaka is waiting. You two… will erase the rest."

---

ACT 1: The Clone's Origin

At Black Squad's new temporary base in Jabalpur, Imran decodes the full data they stole from Site-Delta.

The truth emerges:

Project ROGUE's master plan was not Raaka.

It was Subject-06 — a clone made from Qazi's DNA, using samples taken during his time at RAW.

He was grown in Astra labs for over 4 years, built to be:

A shadow commander.

A perfect loyalist.

Immune to guilt.

> "The perfect A.C.P., without the rebellion."

Reet finds old footage:

Subject-06 trained with Raaka.

He speaks only when ordered.

But he mirrors Qazi's fighting style perfectly — down to the last elbow strike.

---

ACT 2: The Invitation

Zoya intercepts a frequency used by Raaka in earlier episodes.

It contains a voice message, spoken in Qazi's voice — but it's not him.

> "Come to Bhopal. No lies. No games. One Qazi leaves. One Qazi dies."

Attached: A live video feed showing Raaka standing beside Subject-06.

In the background, a captured civilian — the last Falcon whistleblower — bound and bloodied.

---

ACT 3: The Moral Debate

At HQ, the team debates.

Imran:

"If this clone has even a fraction of your intelligence, he's dangerous beyond control."

Zoya:

"He's not you. He's a copy — made to follow orders. That's not free will."

Reet:

"If we kill him now, we end Virk's leverage. This is surgical. Fast."

But Qazi disagrees.

Qazi:

"If he's me… even partly…

I owe it to him to look him in the eye before I pull the trigger."

He suits up. Black armor. No insignia.

---

ACT 4: Duel in Bhopal

Abandoned thermal power plant outside Bhopal.

Qazi enters alone.

Snipers in shadows.

Raaka appears first — larger, faster, angrier than before.

But he lets Qazi pass.

Then, from the smoke — Subject-06 steps out. Same face. Mirror-like precision.

Qazi:

"They gave you my name. But they didn't give you my mind."

Subject-06 (calm):

"They took your pain.

I don't carry it.

That's why I'll survive."

---

ACT 5: Qazi vs Qazi – The Fight

One-on-one.

They move like twins.

Same blocks.

Same combinations.

But Subject-06 is enhanced — faster reflexes, better stamina.

Qazi gets slammed through a pillar. Bleeding.

But he counters using memory, emotion, and instinct — things the clone doesn't understand.

> "They built you to mimic me.

But they didn't teach you fear.

Or loss."

He uses Raaka's own trap explosives, planted in the arena, against Subject-06.

The explosion tears part of the clone's shoulder.

Raaka rushes forward to finish Qazi.

Suddenly — Zoya, Reet, and Imran breach in from three angles.

Gunfight.

Reet snipes Raaka's leg. He growls, injured but drags Subject-06 out as smoke fills the plant.

The Falcon whistleblower is rescued — barely alive.

---

ACT 6: Aftermath and Revelation

Back at HQ:

Subject-06 is now on the run.

Raaka is wounded.

But Virk now knows: Black Squad won't fall in a trap again.

The rescued Falcon whistleblower — Dr. Anay Pathak — finally speaks.

> "There's one final phase of Project ROGUE. One more Subject…

And this one wasn't made.

He volunteered."

Everyone stares.

---

FINAL SCENE – GENERAL VIRK'S WAR ROOM

General Virk opens a secret chamber.

Inside: a man in chains. But he's laughing. Slowly. Unnaturally.

The original mind behind Astra Division. The true monster.

Virk whispers:

> "Wake up, Doctor. It's time to unleash Subject-Zero."

---

Next Episode Tease — Episode 83: "Subject-Zero"

Dr. Anay Pathak reveals the truth about the doctor who began Astra — a bioengineer who modified his own brain to become post-human.

Subject-Zero is not a clone or soldier — but a genius weapon, capable of controlling others like Raaka and Subject-06.

Zoya faces the toughest choice: follow law… or assassinate a man before he becomes unstoppable.
