Forlan was shocked as he can still clearly remember the same type of incidents occurred in his life. Like the time at the massive bridge accident of L.A. when he couldn't get to it as one of the tires got punctured just before the bridge in the road. Or he was the only guest that night who couldn't go into a big corporate party in a hotel as he forget to bring his invitation card with him but later the whole floor burned down for a cylinder leak in the kitchen and everyone died.
Forlan was totally devastated. So his father came to see after long time & finally revealed their family secrets of being his so lucky in all these years.
It was a group of Jinns who protected them all these years from all sorts of accidents. Forlan's father Fredrick claims that in many years ago while he was visiting India he saved a religious man from a road accident. That man turned out to be a powerful Pir who in return assigns a good bunch of Jinns to protect Fredric's family for next 50 years from any accidents & dangers. But in return Fredrick & his coming generations have to marry Pir's any widowed female descendants. And then Fredrick married to one of his beautiful daughters who was widowed and Forlan was actually son of Fredrick's that 1st wife (who died at his birth) before marrying with Cathy in the States who Forlan used to know as his real mother. So Fredrick requested Forlan to go to India marry a girl named Sultana who is last living descendant of that Pir but unfortunately become widowed as she had a marriage in childhood but lost the husband in cholera after some years of marriage.
Forlan refused to believe Fredric's story & denied his proposal of getting married to an unknown woman. Moreover he told him that he has a girlfriend (Barbara) now and he's already committed to her.
Fredrick blasted out as saying then the protection will be lifted the & the JINNS will turn up against them. Forlan again refuses to believe his fairy tales like stories & threaten to send him to a doctor for mental check up.
Then in the end one fine day of their honeymoon Forlan & Barbara face their worst possible fate by a very silly & weird accident.

This is what esteemed Judge had to say in his verdict...
"
I can see Samantha's Grave coming out as an OK dark comedy.
The Mute Girl could have it's creepy moments.
The Illegal Immigrant story doesn't seem that interesting, but if planned out well enough what basically boils down to a vampire - werewolf fight could be entertaining.
The Protection is just like the others.. plain and simple, not a lot there but potentially entertaining. I don't see international box office success, but maybe some internet buzz around places like HDC could propel the DVD a bit.
Middle of the the road. I give it a 6/10."
So
Roshiq, you have scored a pretty decent score for your long effort. Good show. You also win a SHOTGUN WITH FIVE SHELLS!
Congrats.
Also, as Michelle pointed out, she would be on the road till Sunday with her laptop so I don't think she might have the time to send in her originally planned entry. Regardless, since the honorable Judges have decided to give her another chance, I will give her 24 hours. At the end of that, we will go into the Zone outing.
