Great post SheDevil
We all have an urge to scream, cry or even punch someone at times! Human nature!!... RK has human characteristics, instead of those perfect heros we are accustomed to normally! He is someone who had to endure a lot, the lost of a father through death and then the lost of a mother's love through her second marriage, and that too at the age of 12! It hasnt been an easy road for him, and he chose to build an exterior barrier to help him prevent those pains from re-occuring! Those childhood images today, were a reminder of what he had lost, and he hated seeing it again, his shocking face, (he was literally gobsmacked, the drop of the cover plate demonstrated that), to the angry expression!..scaring even MB!! He hates seeing himself happy, he feels when people are being nice, they are taking pity on him!...He is lost, and he needs love to bring him back, but he refuses to acknowlegde he has a heart, though he couldnt fool us when MB saved him:D...
He wanted MB back, that fierce MB that challenged him, and in the process of doing so he has made her reach her exploding point. She was ready to be humiliated, do his pedicure, get his shoes polish, but refused to allow him to humiliate her mother! And RK knew MB wasnt just going to let go, because she had warned him the night after their wedding to leave her mother out of it!.. And him humiliating her made her reach the end of her tender! And she challeneged him!
Was she right to use the pictures? I would say yes, because i would have done it too! She had no other way to make him appologise and then suddenly her Aladin gave her a way! and despite thinking about using it for one second or two, remembering she was doin it for her mother, she chose to go ahead with it!..She has no plans to publish those pictures (from what i saw) she seemed to be bluffing, she wanted him to open that lock door, and choose her words wisely to attack him, and she succeeded!.. She used his weak point just like he used hers!.. Tit for Tat- Isnt that what every human does? We find our enemies' or opponents' weakest points and attack them on it? So why judge when its being shown in REELity!! A bit hypocritial i would argue!...
There nothing wrong in being human indeed! There is no such thing as being perfect and these characters are perfect illustrations of that very fact!..We all have a grey side to us, but we choose to suppress it, until someone pushes that button and we cnt take it anymore! Similarly these two characters have their good and bad sides, and they know how to press each others' buttons!..
Ps... excuse the ranting! I might sound a bit out of place, since am a bit tired, so appologies!..And my original comment got deleted😡 😆
