The only part I did not get is why RK blew up when Patil touches the bed...

It is not his jealousy that is driving him but fear, concern and some form of realization driving him.

In today's episode...RK was lacking his usual sleek finesse. He is desperate and hurt...he does not know what he wants and why? All he knows is if he waits to discover answers...he will loose Madhu forever. He seemed subdued and teary when Madhu recounted her memories to him.

He knows he needs her with him...he is confident (though it is becoming shaky by minute) that Madhu loves him too but she is too angry to accept the truth or even listen to anything. He needs to force her to face that truth if they have to rebuild anything out of thier relationship starting with forgiveness. Hence he gets her home on his turf where there are very few third party influences to get the process started.

I actually like the fact that he has not turned into a sappy lover boy begging on his kness as he is beginning to realize his mistake...instead he is trying to do damage control and start anew in his own way. In today's episode...he publically told Dips off...his entire focus is on Madhu. I wonder if things would have turned out much differently if Sultan had not called.

Here are my options-

1) He did not want to freak Madhu out with the bed issue at this point

2)He wanted to make bed himself-RK style

3)He wanted only one blanket with no pillow wall

4)He felt that making bed is Madhu's domain as his wife .

5)It was a ploy from CVs to give Madhu chance to escape hence forcing RK to take his craziness one notch up

Totally agree. In my opinion the writers are continuously adding to RK's redemption plot, it is a slow buildup for sure; Radha and Bittuji's indirect interference, Sultan's entry, Dipali often holding the mirror for RK' are all stories that are adding more layers towards the buildup of redemption. As you said, ultimately it must be RK who makes the final self realization discovery.

Something struck me today as watched the episode second time. On the drunk night...when Madhu had begun to walk away from RK after telling him that she can never return back...RK asks her desperately "what should he do now?" She tells him to hold her tightly in his arms and never let her go and she will return back.

If you think about it ...that is exactly what RK is doing...holding onto her tightly (maybe too tightly) and preventing her from walking away under any pretext even if he comes across looking psychotic.

On a different note will both of them being in same room and in same bed trigger memories of that night?
