~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



The Episode starts with Col. Abhayankar telling about the small aircraft in which they are going to board the flight for Lukla from Kathmandu. The journey is 30 minutes. Aakaash says that he had heard about it, and enquires Chaand, whether it is safe. Chand says he had gone 10 times in this aircraft and nothing to worry. He says it will feel like sitting on a mad horse. The ride would be really interesting though. Arjun asks Aakaash that why is he afraid, and says him to be a man, afterall it's only a 30 minutes flight. Arjun meanwhile sees the aircraft and asks Chaand, that is this the one? And says Sh*t. Anjali laughs. Aakaash taunts Arjun so as why is he afraid, and also tells him to be a man [LOL, tit for tat] . Anjali reads Yeti airways. She tells the meaning of Yeti - being Abominable Snowman to Aakaash and co. Chand says he heard about Yeti, and no one knows does he really exists. (It is an ape-like cryptid taller than an average human that is said to inhabit the mountains).She says then ask Everest. Arjun says lets go to board it, if their useless discussions are over.Aakaash is pissed and Anjali signals him to leave it. They all board the flight. Arjun gets paranoid as the flight is takes off. Arjun feels suffocated and shows symptoms of Claustrophobia. He sits freezed in his place closing his eyes.He tries to look here and there(He stares at a Nepali air hostess and at an uncle, en route).Aakaash looks at Arjun holding the seat. He enquires Arjun whether he is fine. Arjun replies that he is fine. Aakaash says that you are sweating, and hands are trembling, he enquires the reason.


Aakaash looks at Anjali,who is seated at the back. Anjali signals as for what happened. Aakaash too signals that he has no idea. Aakaash tells Arjun that he knows about this feeling, dry throat and dizziness, as he had also felt the same when he was stuck up there in NIM. Arjun tells Aakaash," BEWAKOOF, my problem is not like yours".He says that he has this problem with closed spaces, since years, and he feels suffocated and he faces a problem in breathing. Anjali asks why, did anything happen. Arjun says that, 4 years ago, in Nanda Devi expedition, he was youngest mountaineer. He was working as the expedition assistant. He says that he got stuck in a snowstorm, and it was very strong. He recalls that and the whole scene is shown in flash backs.


Arjun says that he was almost blind. There was no use of calling names, as no one responded,and all were badly struck in the storm. He says that everything was out of control.He says that he had roamed for hours alone and go into a cave, saving himself. He says he did not have space to move his body and was freezing, as he was surrounded by snow everywhere. He says he had spent hours like this, waiting for someone to come and save him. Anjali enquires further. Arjun says that his body was freezing; he felt like the cave is swallowing him, he was like a statue and he felt short of breath, as the air was reducing. He says he had spent the whole night like a dead body, and he was helpless. The FB shows frozen Arjun. Arjun says that he felt that the cave in front of him was his death calling him. He says that he is feeling the same now. Anjali asks then who saved him. Arjun says that his name is Arjun, he doesn't need anyone's help. He says that he got out in morning, and reached the base camp alive. Aakaash and Anjali smile. Arjun holds the seat tight, , while the flight lands. Aakaash says that it's good to know that likewise we all, even Arjun Sabarwal is afraid of something, afterall you are human, not a superhero. Arjun wears his sunglasses and hides her fearing eyes. They reach Lukla Airport.


Roongta tries smoking outside. Col Abhayankar tells him the instructions that smoking is not allowed in this expedition. Abhayankar explains that they have to do 10 day trek in this mountain way, and oxygen will get less, and smoking lowers the oxygen levels in body. Roongta says that , he is scaring more than anti-smoking advertisement. Abhayankar says that they just warn, and he is saving life. Ramesh says fine, and keeps the cigarette back. He asks whether he can have drinks. Abhayankar says yes, only juices, not alcohol. Abhayankar further adds that he is lucky to not be his student, otherwise he would have punished him.He says that he is leading the expedition, he would decide the rules and he will not let anyone break the rules.


Anjali and Arjun scream Woohoo (after seeing the Lukla )!!Anjali says that see is feeling that they are near the Everest. Anjali and Arjun tell the same to Roongta. Anjali says we have experts with us. They have a laugh. The team joins them. Aakaash records them. Abhayankar introduces Arjun, Anjali, Aakaash and Mr. Roongta to the team. He says this is Siddharth and others(4 members). Siddharth welcomes them to Lukla. Abhiyankar says first we will go to the Lukla village, we will buy food items here and then leave. Lukla town is shown. The team leaves for road trek.


Precap:


Arjun says that the lodge is disgusting like this team. Aakaash and Anjali are talking in the lodge. Arjun by mistake comes to Anjali's room and says sorry, he explains that he had thought it was his room. Aakaash tells Anjali you better not indulge into friendship with him, as I am seeing your friendship growing day by day. He further says that people like Arjun can't be anyone's friend and no one can become his friend. Arjun overhears this conversation and wipes his tears (He gets hurt).Col Abhayankar sees a stone named Tara (epitaph like thing)and looks at it recalling Tara.
