I am not too sure what's his name but I felt bad for him... KT's mom, in a way, pointed out he is incapable of handling things and that they are on their mercy. It was rude, but I believe it is flaw of human nature!
And even after KT convinced her, he was left alone disappointed. I am glad his wife saw everything, hopefully she is supportive towards him. I know where did he come from for convincing KT to get back on his feet again or he will end up tolerating such humiliation.
I guess we can see some friction in future and its setting stage for troubles Preeti need to deal with...
But today's episode did highlight problems that she has to deal in addition to tolerating KT's antics.
