So today was a buildup episode for the kidnapping track, where finally we found out who was behind Imlie's kidnapping. And all those who predicted the depravity levels that AC can actually shake hands with a freaking human trafficking mastermind to get rid of Imlie - ding, ding, ding - you have won this round of predictions.
Baaki the episode was so meh, that it really did not have much to crow about. Imlie is cleaning up, and gets interrupted by Sundar, who asks her to study even if she is not going to college. She acts like a sweet kid who needs a break, saying she has been studying all morning and since it was time to go to college, she was doing some work to keep her engaged. Malini comes there to ask Imlie to dust her room, as apparently dust is not good for the baby. Before Imlie can respond, Rupi di comes to give her token taunt to Malini that her room is full of kachra (she must have seen the photos😆) and Imlie is very good at getting rid of unwanted kachra from the T house😆. She calls Malini mehmaan and asks what the muhavara was - maan na maan, main tera mehmaan😆. Malini pe toh kuch asar hone se raha, she just walks out of there after getting thoroughly insulted.
AC is in jail trying to make sense of being stuck there due to Imlie & KC, where she gets a lot of khatirdaari from the constable😆. She finds another lady in her cell who is getting VIP treatment coz she runs a human trafficking ring and has killed 5 people and kidnapped many more. She pulls a knife to AC's throat, who promises to get her a girl, as she is missing one in her consignment and gives Imlie's details to the lady. She gets happy on realizing that Imlie will finally be out of Malini and her lives and celebrates the fact that going to jail gave her this connect - dear lord AC is happy that going to jail has given her notable connections
Yesterday's scene plays out with some additional scenes of PT going to call Adi, as those "officers" were calling Imlie a naukrani. Imlie is going with her id, where Rupi di interrupts her and says she will come along, but Imlie asks her to stay, she will manage. Imlie gets kidnapped from the house just as Adi is coming down to check the situation, lamenting about how much more Imlie is going to get insulted. Adiji, aap Imlie par bharosa kar lijiye and send the kaala saaya out of your life - automatically sab theek ho jaayega. Anyway, everyone realizes that the people and Imlie are missing. This time surprisingly, Aparna's reaction was to watch out for. She was genuinely worried (more than Adi🤣) of where Imlie went, as compared to the last time Imlie left the house after the medicine kand of Malini. Malini tried to instigate everyone against Imlie saying that she must have just gone out without telling anyone and gets taunts from NN, who accuses her of doing something to Imlie.🤣
Imlie faces her kidnappers and tells them that they made a mistake in picking her up (oh they do not know the musibat they just picked up) and that she is not afraid of guns. They show her the other girls who have been kidnapped along with her to send abroad for household work. They take her picture for making her passport (kya baat hai, pehle Aadhaar card, ab passport - jo ek waqt pe had no ID proof, now will get 2😆) She tries to make sense of the situation, but keeps quiet due to the other girls.
Mitthi at the C house (again I am still not able to comprehend why she is there, but oh well) is praying to SM to help her deal with the current situation, where the diya goes off and refuses to light again, worrying Mitthi that this is some sanket. She calls the T hpuse to speak to Imlie and finds out that Imlie is missing, causing her to panic even more. Adi tries to manage the situation, but he looks confused today - like he is not able to understand where she suddenly disappeared. Rupi di and Sundar come home to tell them that the people who visited them did not go anywhere else and Nishant confirms with the bureau that they had not sent anyone (unke aane ke time pe nahi kar sakte the - gadhe kahin ke). Adi realizes that Imlie is kidnapped and gives the same expression as he did in the precap - giving us the indication that GM is also confused as to what reaction to give in this situation🤣.
The precap shows Imlie realizing that the girls are taken outside the country and sold for employment, and vows to save them and herself. While I am sure she very well is capable to do so akele hi, I am hoping that this time they take some time with this track and show Adi for once actually doing something, rather than following the footsteps of his best friend and sitting at home twiddling thumbs😆.
