Ok, so I guess the ultimatum angle has been put aside for now😆......the turn of events today went in another direction.....Adi-Imlie are still debating the when/how of telling their truth instead😆.....doesn't look like things have reached any breaking point for any ultimatums to be issued😆......they are both resigned to their usual limbo for the most part😆.
Anyways, that aside.....a decent episode in terms of Adi-Imlie I guess. They got a conversation even if much of it felt repetitive in tone.....Imlie repeated her usual fear of not wanting to rock the boat of this happy T family that looks united and together in the pictures that are up on the wall....pictures that she dusts daily as the maid in the house. So basically Imlie's mind is still in that maid mode ki she's not destined to ever be a part of those family pictures, she can't picture herself in those photos and neither can the T family......toh basically the same point she was repeating even before Adi brought her home from the lodge😆.
For a second there, when Adi started off with his "I thought you were just making excuses but now I can see what you fear", I was like hey bhagwaan ab is point pe bhi yeh Imlie ke defeatist mode ka saath dega?😆......but thankfully he tried to pull her out of it a bit with saying that CIRCUMSTANCES will not decide her place in this world, but SHE will.....Adi deals in absolutes as usual....lol his point is that this is the truth and his family will HAVE to accept it😆. What he gave Imlie in this scene was understanding.....the way he said, "Hum samajh rahe hain ki tum har nazariye se is baat ko dekhne ki koshish kar rahi ho".....I guess Imlie needed that reassurance from him that her fears are not illogical 😆.....well I'm not going to get into the broader situation of the other illogical things she's thinking.....but I appreciated the attempt at communication and give and take in this scene😊.
I would like to see Imlie also giving Adi understanding again someday....it's long overdue now. Can't remember the last time she actually understood HIS perspective on something😆. But today, even if they were in disagreement as usual, there was that moment in the scene with the Ts where Adi wanted to tell the truth and he looked at Imlie for support but he could see she wasn't there yet....her eyes were communicating her panic and refusal clearly so he let it go again even if he was unhappy about it.
The little morning scene they got with Imlie handing him his tiffin was also a nice touch of routine/domestication.....lol Imlie hesitatingly asking for his saath in going to KC ka office (chalo thoda toh saath ka matlab samajh aa raha hai ladki ko aur har kaam akele nahin karne chali😆) and then Adi continuing on his mission to establish the "Mrs. Tripathi" title in Imlie's head with yet another "Bye, Mrs. Tripathi" today😆.
As for the rest, I dunno where exactly AC ka tamasha is going with her attempt to jail Adi and the Ts😆.....but for now it does seem to be bringing out Imlie's protective instincts big time😆.....there is no pleading from her side....Imlie seems to be treating it as war😆......aaj toh shockingly DIDI bhi nahin lagaya Malini ke naam ke peechhe😲🤣......must be a random blooper....warna toh marte dum tak chalega Didi jaap😆.
Maybe this will make Imlie find her answer about where exactly her place is in that family portrait😆....but chalo aage dekhte hain if Imlie ka tashan with AC in the precap is again just for a token scene ya kuch purpose bhi serve hoga. The least the makers can do is let Imlie rescue her own goddamn family, man😆.
Haha@ Adi threatening AC even from inside the jail cell ki dare you say anything to Imlie😆.....There is this strange sense of Adi-Imlie being beyond caring ki koi un dono ke ek dusre ke liye care ke baare mein kuch bolega.....even AC ke cheap taunts don't seem to intimidate Imlie that much now😆.
