Hi, I'm Ana, and I've been silently watching D3 for a while now. Today's episode compelled me to make a post.
No, don't get me wrong. The dance was AMAZING. Beautiful, perfect, brilliant. It left me spellbound. Which is probably why the rest of the episode was somewhat lacking. We went from absolute perfection in the start to the end with me going... Okay, what the actual 🤬.
There were some good bits- the subtle change in Rey with him turning into overprotective nurse. Yes, he is a nurse, running to fetch ice for the doctor, lifting Kriya up from her wheelchair and placing her on the bed (which, by the way, was supposedly the nurse's job!). Rey is Kriya's very own nurse :P. I loved how he told her to shut up, and I LOVED 'doctor uncle's' bemused reaction to his eagerness to help out. It just goes to how he really can't handle Kriya in pain. I liked SwaRon's not-so-subtle but veiled argument about love in front of the reporters. Good for Sharon for not agreeing with Swayam blindly, and trying to put forth her own points. I also liked the gang, especially Vicky-Nil's realisation of Kriya actually not being the horrendous villain they thought her to be. Can I get a hallelujah?!
BUT oh my god what was the end with Rey?! And Sharon oscillating like a wrecking ball (she came in like wrecking ball.. ok I'm going to stop). So, one moment she thinks it'd be smart not to say anything to Kriya in front of Swayam because he'd think she's being fake?! Wouldn't that actually exacerbate Swayam's suspicions further, if she suddenly stops showing any sort of care towards Kriya? And fine, whatever, she wants to sort out her differences with Swayam before continuing with Kriya. Fine, that's all good. But then why in the name of God did she decide to go with the rest of the gang to the hospital. Hold up, it'll look fake if you ask her questions when you're concerned, but it totally won't look fake if you go to the hospital? Yeah, sure makes sense. 🤢
And Rey, oh good God I wanted to beat that boy up at the end! WHAT?! No, but seriously, WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?! I expected him to get mad at them, and say that it was HIS problem, and not theirs! Fine, they realised their mistake, which was good, but NO! You do not just let it go and blame YOURSELF! I get what the CVs were trying to do. They were trying to make Rey realise his mistakes, and vow to repent for them. But that could've been done better, at another point. I wanted Rey to get mad, to drag Nil and Vicky to Kria and DEMAND they apologise. I most certainly did NOT want him to hug them.
The episode was good, mainly because of ArSha's magic and pure perfection, but I was expecting better writing and direction in the other scenes. I hope they don't botch this up from now on. They have a perfect set up to take the story to a great place. And please, just hurry up with SwaRon. They deserve to talk things out and sort out their misunderstanding. It isn't like Swayam to not listen to other people's points of view, so PLEASE CVs, stop altering your characters.
