I saw the episode as well. And as Sonia mentioned, had similar reaction. I was exceedingly happy to see a non-smirky, non-amused Mayank. The hug was genuine. His anxiety for her was genuine. The fall was awkward though. Mayank finally jots down a list of his rescue attempts - men's loo, bus missed, goons, and now staff room. But he does it in a way that doesn't sound overbearing. In fact he does it to lighten up Ms. Ladakoo Morena's mood. And as a grand finale act, he sweeps her off her feet (literally) as she's sprained her ankle.
Samrat and Gunjan scenes though cute, made me want to punch Samrat on his nose - HARD! The guy is leading Gunjan on and how! He claims they are soulmates, shows her packed gifts to choose from for Sheeeeeeeena and even claims a dance with her. I truly felt sorry for Gunjan. Hope she breaks her friendship with Samrat pretty soon.
Edit: Hi Sonia, Sarah, Anu, AC, Mel and other fellow ramblers! One more thing I wanted to mention: When Mayank was attempting to lighten up the awkward situation between him and Nupur, it reminded me of the before beach sequence - very well done. 👏
