I will only say one thing - Imlie has to get much more humiliated before things get better. We all hate it and hate Malini even more as she is instrumental in creating this mess. But one thing is there - as long as Adi is there, he will never let Imlie get humiliated or insulted and even here he stood up for her.
Whether we like it or not, Malini has to fall even further than she already has, which will affect Imlie. But we can be assured of 2 things, no matter what happens next:
1. Adi will always be there to support and uplift Imlie at every juncture.
2. Imlie will only come out stronger from every situation and all this will only help her realize the true intentions behind DD's actions.
Will Imlie retaliate - while I hope so, I really doubt that will happen. But what will happen is that the track will get resolved and we will get either a separation or an NDE to get to the next track, which will be the redmption track. So all I would say is keep patient and try your best to stick to watching the stuff you can see and FF'ing the remaining bits. Accordingly it will become easier for you to come to terms with this track, coz now it will get much worse before it becomes better, so brace yourself accordingly.
I am not looking to hurt anyone's sentiments - just wanted to point out that the current situation has to resolve itself before getting over, so all I ask is for some patience to allow the makers to properly finish the loop in this track before they can move on to the next one.
