I've been catching up on the thread and such amazing insights!

I went on twitter, and wow, I am baffled at people's thoughts on Imlie's promotion.
Here are my thoughts, and it's more for my benefit than anyone else's - I am just so baffled:
As a corporate employee I can say that people who get promoted do so not because they're very good at their current job, but because they show potential or capability for more.
Imlie was told to wash a car and she did it. There is no job that is too big or too small. That is so true. Especially when you are just starting off - honey if your boss tells you to jump you better be asking how high. Also that ability to admit you made a mistake and take responsibility for your actions, demonstrates an emotional capacity which is rare regardless of age.
Imlie was told to assist in a story with a senior and when he took off, she didn't go home until it was done. She went very many extra miles.
Imlie convinced Pooja for the interview. She knows how to handle difficult situations and people.
It's been 10 days since she started, but in that short amount of time Aryan has seen all of this and much more, first hand.
Yes, Imlie is young in age and on the job, but (1) it's a drama so who cares, and (2) there is no required time-period even in the real world.
Also, I'll say this - if Aryan is growing soft on Imlie it's mostly due to how she's handled herself at work. He's allowed to like her as a person. He doesn't have to view her rigidly in other to promote her.
To say that Imlie is being naive and blind to Aryan's intentions is selling her short. She is deserving.
