Ok phew, a lot happened in this epi😆.....well atleast more than I was expecting, so we'll take it in sections.....
First up was the date.....after getting the gross bojh out of the way (thank you, Rupi di), Adi recalled all of Sundar's advice and jumped into transitioning to the date with gusto😆.
I didn't know how the transition would work exactly but they really did make it work quite sweetly😆.....Adi trying to make small talk initially by complimenting Imlie ki bahut achhi lag rahi ho😆......then thoda aur soch ke bola ki hum tumhein kahin le jaana chahte hain😆, phir on the spot idea aaya imaginary bike ka and kar di start "bike"😆....Imlie initially was looking at him like WTF😆.....but then she finally gave in seeing how earnestly "method" he was trying to be about the whole bike enactment....petrol kharch hone ki bhi duhaai de di😆.....phir jab Imlie aa gayi "bike pe baithne", he's like asli drive pe toh nahin jaa paaye, toh socha aise hi.....aww look at him trying to make do with imagination only😆. Iske baad it was hilarious to see him trying to enact the whole "rhythm" of the bike also jaise sach mein sadak pe chalaa raha hai😆. Phir as expected, isko idea aaya brake lagaane wala to then ask Imlie ki theek se pakad lo peechhe se.....ROFL he was even giving her a demo of how to put her arms around him🤣.....Imlie itna sweetly blush karti hui peechhe se finally put her arms around him and rested her cheek on his back too....bada hi simple/sukoon wala bit tha yeh :)
Finally bike nautanki ended and they reached the imaginary "restaurant"....lol uske baad Adi ne kar li nautanki in trying to play host and waiter both😆.....finally he dropped the act only when he didn't get a word out of Imlie and he's like, "kuch toh bolo na"😆......Imlie ne bol diya ki yeh "restaurant" is sabse alag toh utne mein hi khush hokar Adi ne apne future ke hopes list out karne shuru kar diye.....until Imlie finally turned the convo in a somber way to the fact that you can't just forget the past when it gets linked to your future.
The meat of the convo after this could have touched on many topics....but since they are fresh off the drama that happened in the fake pooja, Imlie is now only fixated on how Malini doesn't care for the baby....toh wohi topic became the primary focus of this date convo also😆.....they didn't get into any of the issues about M's coveting of Adi, their own future together as husband-wife etc.....bas whole convo was only around M's neglect of the baby and Imlie trying yet again to tell Adi that he doesn't believe her when she tells him about M.....Adi heard Imlie out this time and even acknowledged that he is finding M's behavior weird too - called her emotionally kamzor, UNSTABLE😆 and insecure today as well....but again, Adi comes across to me like a trauma victim....his body language totally shuts down when M is brought up.....it was apparent in the contrast of how relaxed and happy he was talking to Imlie before she brought up M and it's like depression descended over Adi's whole demeanor....and then he want into this stoic sa mode trying to muse out loud ki buri se buri aurat bhi apne bacche ki fikar karti hai, no? lol he can't cope with the magnitude of M's buraai.....but Imlie has no patience left for his wishi-washiness and she stood up to say she will go search for saboot again to prove her point - and hope he doesn't erase the saboot this time as well😆. Adi was left to lament again how he seems to be lacking in his ability to samjhaao his stance these days.
Ok date done, the action shifted to usual Didi related tamaashe.......there is again cause today to wonder if the pregnancy is fake😆. Malini apparently totally refused to get a check up done from the doctor and locked herself up in her room for half an hour to avoid the doctor.....why so? Simply so that he doesn't diagnose the impact of her asthma on the baby? Doubtful.....seems like there's more to hide there.
Imlie wiggled her way into the room for another round of tauntbaazi with psycho Didi....dialogue of the day from Imlie was, "KUCH toh sharam keejiye, Malini didi"🤣.....dunno why but Imlie still seemed shocked to see that Malini cares more about getting close to Adi rather than the safety of the baby.....M again declared she wants to be Adi's wife before any pregnancy blah blah and is still babbling about patni wala haq chahiye.....lol didn't she claim she got all "haqs" the night she spent with him supposedly? Toh ab kaunse haq? 😆....unless Miss Pathological Despo Liar didn't get the haqs she's boasting to everyone that she did🤪.
Then the other star of the day was Rupi Didi who just seems DONE with M ka shit😆.....Knives out mode tha aaj ekdum Rupi ka seeing M's fake sweetness ka naatak trying to show to Aparna that she will be all careful with the baby blah blah.....Rupi called her out in front of everyone for avoiding the check up from the doctor and now trying to play bholi.....another line of the day was Rupi sarcastically scoffing that "Mujhe pyar se baat karna kinki beti sikhaa rahi hai"👏🤣......Baaki M was parked on the bed in her usual beached whale mode so mehh.
Adilie got another convo in the end with Adi expressing that he can't deal with all this gharelu drama....lol usko bas achha patrakaar hona samajh aata hai but all this gharelu politics has done him in and his mind is not being able to process all that has happened with him off late....the trauma of that night, then this baby, now all this daily drama.....he doesn't know what to think and what to say to anyone.....GM did a good job enacting this turmoil of Adi in this scene.....Imlie for her part seems to feel sorry for how he is being divided into two halves in this situation....lol apna khud ka khayaal aana phir se band ho gaya lagta hai Imlie ko😆
Baaki I have no idea what the last kitchen scene of Adi-Aparna was supposed to signify....but end result seems to be that Imlie was amused that Adi still wanted to drop her off to college despite knowing she's upset with him.....lol
Precap mein bhi sab light banter mode mein hain over this "pampering" wala idea Imlie has devised so looks like Saturday epi will be another comedy filler😆
