wooohoooo!!!!! the one time that jet-lagged people and non-jet-lagged people are awake at the same weird times -- when india counts election votes!! i mean, even pcp is awake watching the updates with google eyes! and woooohooooo!!! the mad religious fanatics lost -- big time! and the mad commie fanatics lost -- even bigger time!! the congress has got the largest number of votes for a single party... and the upa is all set to form the government! all hail youth power! all hail... us! 😆 all hail prem-heer-are-one! er.. i mean, this is still the big things, little things for the show -- not an indian election update..😆 so on with it....
* little thing: interesting how lalit juneja and gayatri do the pooja separately, but prem-heer do it together, no? 😍 even the gods like to see 'em together. 😍
er... but tell me s'thing -- how come only they do the pooja and not the other couples? i mean, how come meet don't get to do the pooja together?
* little thing: even more interesting -- the balaji telefilms actually got the process for a difficult divorce right! wow! someone somewhere is paying attention! no, seriously! i'm truly impressed... i'm sooo impressed, i'm actually confused. why can't they give this much care to details all the time??
although - why, oh why, didn't harman offer to go to the counseling session? 😕 this time, he was right there... 😕
* prem thing: omg! he's in that pink-that-only-prem-can-wear-and-be-a-man coloured shirt!
* little thing: i must admit -- i got puzzled when gayatri emphatically asked prem (in front of heer) whether he has forgotten how nihaal beat vitchface? hmmm... what was she trying there?
* heer thing: aw, that was a sweet heer-lalit-juneja moment. i loved how he asked her what was wrong? i loved how she refused to look him in the eye when she said she was fine. *sigh* darnit, does this mean i have to go back to calling him lallu-chacha now? *sigh*
* little thing: i dunno 'bout you, but i actually got most disturbed at seeing gayatri sooooooo agitated waiting outside the counselling office!! why was she that antsy??
i mean, it can't have been 'cause she's afraid that nihaal would hurt vitchface -- not with the ''judge'' there, right??! so what was she so afraid of -- that the ''judge'' would convince the two to get a reconciliation??? c'mon! i want to know!
* little thing: totally loved prem's reaction to nihaal -- he looked not a whit angry anymore (thank goodness!), just ... troubled!
and when the ''judge'' tells 'em that nihaal just wants a quick divorce -- he looks even more troubled. why, oh why, does prem look like an innocent little baby in that scene? can't have been just the effect of that shirt, making his cheeks look all round and rosy... no? 😆
* little thing: er... i am all for prem-heer mush moments. but seriously can't they figure out a better reason and a better setting for 'em??
i mean, what was that entire change-the-decorations moment all 'bout? other than telling us that heer will become a pauper really soon if she keeps spending her personal money to pay difference between marigolds and roses in wedding decorations... 😆
that was a totally weird situation! i mean, heer and the girl chatting to each other like they were ... best friends, if not outright long-lost sisters!
* heer-prem-are-one thing: although i did like one thing 'bout that conversation -- it's not just we who know that prem-heer-are-one; anyone who meets heer (or prem) for the first time knows it too! i mean, heer said nothing 'bout prem in her conversation. and yet, the girl refers to heer's husband as ''prem''... 😆
* little thing: oooooooh!!! there is a mr. sharma! i was beginning to think that prem had just made him up to convince gayatri and heer that he needed help at the hotel... 😆
but poor mr. sharma!! he needs lessons on how to tell the boss that she is making a loss-making decision... 😆 i hope prem raises mr. sharma's salary - the poor man looked sooo stressed! 😆
* little thing: man! how many times do i have to wish for a blackhole for vitchface and the shrimp before the darned thing actually comes!!!???!!! 😡
* little thing: gosh, gayatri-mom's look at vitchface and the shrimp was dangerous!
i really wonder what gayatri-mom is waiting for before blowing this ridiculous farce that vitchface and shrimp are putting together out of the water! i don't mind the farce -- but i sooooo mind the boredom that watching vitchface and shrimp together on the screen causes!!! 🤢 'specially when the shrimp starts talkin' 'bout gayatri-mom's ''plan'' to destroy prem-heer-are-one... 🤢
* little thing: ouch! for the first time, gayatri-mom talked about ''compensation from nihaal'' for the pain he caused vitchface?? wha....?? where did that come from?? 🤢
something else bothered me 'bout gayatri-mom -- but i think i'll leave that for the wtf this weekend. 😆
* little thing: hmm. so is the shrimp gonna use her father's lawyer connections to get vitchface's lawyer to play dirty in her case? 🤢
* prem thing: hmm. either hc is beginning to forget who prem is a bit... or the script needs prem to not forget that he was hip-hop prem for a while? i really wonder who made that decision for prem to be so high-pitched in his anger -- scriptwriters or hc...
'cause it came across more that just a little odd how prem sounded high-pitched when he was speaking angrily to ''mr. sharma''. i mean, prem has been high-pitched with heer -- haven't seen him being this .. er .. screechy with anyone else!
*pondering* well. poor guy. he has been through a lot. he's been cheated by gaurav-sharma's mom-girlfriend from being with the love of his life. *but he was really being a duffer there! who abandons his love 'cause he's gonna die soon? i mean, really!* even with the hole-in-the-head-and-heart, he had to come back and help heer solve a bunch of juneja-generated messes. then he had to fake not being prem to heer. and then he came out of fake to marry her. and then he went back to faking it... and then he gets told that he is whole-in-the-heart *duffer!* and can go to heer after all. and *omg!* that he can ... er ... phool 'round with heer as much as he wants for the rest of his hopefully looooooooong life! and make grandchildren for his mother!! and after all that, his mother is trying to get him to focus on vitchface rather than heer??!!! imagine the impossibility of trying to make grandchildren while having to deal with vitchface's problems!!!!
i mean, seriously! i'm tempted to forgive prem for sounding a little hysterical with other people now, i think... 🤣
* little thing: i looooved the way heer told him on the phone that she is ''right behind you, sir.'' there was such love in her voice... just as much as i loved how sweetly she asked ''listen to me, no?'' and then, as much as i loved how prem's face just melts from frowny to ... loving-heer. in a way that only prem's face can look...
seriously! that look is dangerous! here i was, all buzzing with the election news, sitting in pcp's prim-and-proper tv room, and threatening to create a goopy mess on their expensive persian rug, just at the look on his face at heer...
* little thing: though i didn't like heer's long (prem-like) bhashan on a girl's dream (and btw, who else hooted at the dream??? seriously! is there anyone here whose big dream is a guy to get married to??! 🤣 no, seriously!)
what i did like was heer telling prem how her mom used to tell her 'bout people-made-for-each-other and stars-shining-like-diwali when she and prem would meet. i did like that bit...
* little thing: btw, i confess -- i like prem and heer switching into we're-the-only-ones-in-the-world mode in the middle of busy wedding preparations. 😍 i like how it came across that for them -- it's like they are the only ones there! 😍 the way they looked at each other, over that silly little rose that heer loves prem giving her sooooo much, ignoring everything and everyone around them... locking out the rest of the world...
seriously! i want them arrested -- can i get that done? please??! 😃
* little thing: ugh! so the shrimp gets to sit with vitchface and gayatri-mom while they're meeting with the lawyer. but meher is asked to go ''get tea for the lawyer''?
what, oh what, is gayatri-mom upto???
* little thing: seriously, that lawyer is such a poster-boy for the ''have you hurt a lawyer today?'' campaign, no?
''we'll get nihaal out on the streets''. ''we'll take him for all that he's got.'' ''we'll take nihaal and his family to the cleaners.''
but i guess that what was really terrible was when that oops!-my-face-is-slipping lawyer talked about destroying nihaal and his family! why didn't it seem to strike gayatri-mom then that nihaal's family is standing in front of her serving the lawyer tea??!
* meet thing!!!! oh, preet is such a (god)! a chatter-box! i mean, he actually had to ask his wife whether she didn't think he was doing all the talking??? 😆 but a (god) nevertheless!
oh, meher! please tell the god of smiles what is bugging you? please don't keep secrets from him??
and while i write this, a thought strikes me: y'know, prem-heer have always been the other-worldly couple, who made us believe in true-ever-after-love again. but that belief is a little weird -- i think we all believe that prem-heer are prem-heer-are-one-and-will-be-one forever. but! that is only for prem-heer -- not ordinary people! 😆 i think that meet will be the couple that show us a more real love -- that which can happen to all of us too? no?
* (god) preet thing: the way he smiled and said 'me.... her!' when he came into the room..!!! *sigh. chanting ''a preetstess cannot drool over her god...'' over and over again in my head.* 😆
* prem-heer thing: awww... sooooo cute to see prem-heer coming in from a day of work together. no, no, seriously! soooooo cute!!!!! 😍
* big thing: gayatri-mom's dead face with it's expressionless eyes were just beginning to wear down my nerves, when suddenly...!!! to counter every single bad and sad thought that could've crept into my head today! all of that got banished with just one teeeeeeny prem-movement: as gayatri came towards heer saying that she has to give evidence, prem made - what looked like - an involuntary movement - like a jerk of his body forward -- as if to stand between heer and gayatri-mom!!!! 😍 prem!!!!!!! i soooooo... hate you. i do! 😍 'specially when you seem to prove prem-heer-are-one with every instinctive act of your being... prem. 😍
*taking a deep breath* i still think that gayatri-mom is faking it. 'course i'm probably wrong. i just think that gayatri-mom's faking is a whole lot more complicated than either prem faking it. or the time that lalit-juneja were against prem-heer-are-one 'cause of his arrogance and his ignorance.
all that for the wtf though.. 'cause i just let out such a huge yawn that pcp nearly dropped her milkshake. and pcp's genteel mom is beginning to look at me askance - mebbe i should just wind this up and get to bed... all that is left is ....
highlight of the episode: oh, without doubt. that tiny, instinctive, reactive move of prem's body as if he wants to stand between heer and gayatri-mom when she asked heer to be an eye-witness against nihaal! the look on his face then! as if to say ''omg! i'm gonna have to fight my mother to protect my love!'' um.... (god) preet's smile as he catches sight of his wife in their room... (god) preet's pb's smile while listening to heer telling him 'bout how she waited him for all her life.... ☺️
