Episode was okay in the sense that the Zain-Emaan proper confrontation is at least over and done with. I didn’t like the writing for Zain in that scene - too desperate and cringe - uper se Arsalan ne bhi apnay chaar chaand lagaa diye
I don’t even think Hiba was trying that much kyunke who’s performing in front of you matters so much and the vibe was probably just not there for her. How much could she have saved exactly 
The best part of the episode hands down was Salaar looking like a snack and holding his ground in front of Zain and finally a little bit of that “fighting for Emaan” thing I wanted to see. It wasn’t some phuss self sacrificial bs. That’s good to see for a scene or two but after a while you want to see the hero fighting for the relationship. Especially since Emaan has given him enough security with her words and actions that she wants to be with him. Ab agar misunderstanding hoi tou definitely aik laanat tou banti hai.
Story is still off track and it’s annoying. We want the story back in the Salaar house where a murder mystery needs to be solved and also for Salaar and Emaan to take over the whole property and business together. That whole family dynamic since evil mastermind dad turnaround has happened and whitewashing of stepmom and stepbro needs addressing. Too much of that happened in the background and what has happened has been confusing. So Zain / Sawera should be done now. The main hook point of this show is Salaar’s backstory and Emaan Salaar figuring it all out. They better not be saving it all for the finale.
