Like Watson, Rashi had all the pieces but just did not line it up and looked amazed at Koki's interpretation of the events.. But she played a good Watson..
The rest of the Modi's today were completely oblivious to what was happening and were just too surprised at Koki's outburst at first and then at Anitha's nerve..
But the episode started so well.. The men rush back home to see Ahem.. He is the first son of the family and the apple in everyone's eyes. Any doubt you had before can be removed after seeing today's episode..
Ahem is obviously embarrassed at so much attention. Very well enacted by Nazim.. His relief when Jigar finally tells Baa it is alright is well done⭐️ The family is concerned for their son.. But the doctor assures that rest is all he needs.
Ahem looks at Gopi a number of times and it looks like he is grateful for her help and also just to make sure she was holding up. Gopi looks to be in shock while Koki is distressed at what happened.
Skank slinks away as the family is regrouping.. Everyone leaves allowing Gopi and Ahem to have their time together. The last look of concern and love with distress as Koki walks away is fabulous..
Then comes the heart touching part today.. Rashi brings the burnt gift from the kitchen and hears Ahem tell Gopi that it was for her.. He is genuinely sorry that he was not able to give her the sari.. Even burnt the sari looked beautiful..😳
Gopi takes the Sari reverently and Rashi walks away, I am pretty sure warmed in the cockles of her heart like I was at Ahem's gesture.. But the next sentence stumped me as it stumped Ahem..
"I do not need any sarees as long as you have the longest life and get well soon." Gopi with tears utters a simple line, deep from her heart. We see what she was thinking till now. Her Ahemji could have been in more dire situation.. It seems to be eating at her.. Ahem looks at her amazed, grateful and with a mixture of a hundred emotions on his face,.. What was he thinking about?
Was he thinking how lucky he was or was it about whether he deserves this unconditional love or was it about how much he had to make up to the selfless angel in front of him..
Whatever he thought, I felt his eyes cloud with tears... Watch closely.. His eyes pool and you can see how much he is feeling her love.. Amazing scene👏
So to the Sherlock Holmes.. With Watson being shown by the ever observant Meethi, she informs all about the hole in the pipe.. Koki accepts Rashi's verdict that the pipe was not cut by insects.. Hetal gives her two cents worth nothing about how this happened.
Koki adds everything up.. She thinks back and comes to the conclusion that obviously we all know about. SKANK..
BTW, can someone please ask the CVs never ever to bring skank back? I mean, this is pure madness.Skank slithers away when all are worried in Ahem's room and the first thing she does when she goes back is feel sorry that her plan failed🤢 Disgusting.. And she calls this love..
With Koki arriving at her conclusion, she walks purposefully upstairs leaving the rest of the Modi's sitting with confused expressions.. These guys are the most oblivious bunch in the history of serials.. Even Rashi with all the pieces looks confused😕
The next part cannot be described.. Wow.. Rupal Patel.. Hats off👏 What a combination of anger, distress, love for her son and DIL, disgust for the skank.. She drags Anitha downstairs declaring her to face the truth and confess..Anitha still pretends innocence🤢😡
So Koki decided to give her the breakdown of how she came to the conclusion for the benefit of the lesser able individuals.. BTW, Gopi volunteers to be Ahem's ears and so he is not in the scene😆
As Koki explains, Anitha feigns innocence.. Now comes the irritating part.. Atleast for me.. Why Hetal and why Chirag do you stop Koki in her flow to ask absurd questions. She will explain. Please in future do not open your mouth and listen
So finally Koki shows how she arrived at the conclusion by telling everyone about Anitha's challenge, seeing her near the kitchen and then her mistake of asking GOpi about the kitchen.. Now Rashi's brain does a "Ping" and she sees the truth of Koki's words. Hetal is still not sure.. 😕
So Koki tells them that she will explain in detail later and decides to use her brain again. She takes Ahem's name thus pushing Anitha's madness to the fore.. The Skank confesses😡 And tells Koki that she would never hurt Ahem😲 and she wanted to see Gopi suffer🤢
Koki is as disgusted as I and so are the others.. The skank further says that she loves Ahem and that he is not happy with his marriage.. Koki looks back at Gopi, a look of pain, anger for her and disgust.. I can see the mother in her seeing her daughter again in pain for no reason..
Koki then proceeds to say that she was indeed wrong in taking pity on Anitha.. She goes on to tell her what we have been shouting for so long.. That Anitha is an ungrateful witch..
Unfortunately the witch still maintains that it is not her fault.. that she intended Ahem no harm and that Gopi was who she wanted..
The final shot ends on Gopi.. A devastated Gopi.. I can already read her mind.. She is blaming herself.. She looked sad already as Ahem told her that he went into the kitchen to give her the sari.. Now Anitha's words that she did this for Ahem's happiness and that at one particular point of time in his life he loved her a lot is making her heart bleed...
I know Ahem will be there tomorrow to stop the skank from causing any more pain.. He will also make sure that this beautiful heart is mended.. But today, I feel for Gopi and her tears.. She never in her life imagined that she would cause someone so much distress...Poor Gopi..
BTW, Rashi if she can think that much, needs to look at what her KK can cause.. This started with her and she needs to think twice before she does something again..
The precap is amazing.. Ahem the Knight comes down to lay down a few hometruths to the skank who seems to find it fall on her like thunder.. She needs to hear this.. I will be happily jumping when she is sent out..
BTW, 🥳 for Koki saying "Ek dum Chup"😳 Mother and son say this so very well😃
