"Fear can't hurt you any more than a dream''." "The world, that understandable and lawful world, was slipping away". William Golding, Lord of the Flies
Readers have you ever played Holi with slime...it slips through your fingers and gets everywhere, even places you never thought it could go...
At mamajis house, in the courtyard..Siddarth (Lord-zit-on-a-hemorrhoid) continues molesting Pooja under the pretext of Holi. He threatens to stall the engagement and marriage to Aarti if she does not ask BBP to line him up for a job in the irrigation department (drown him in the Narmada damn it!). Arti returns to the courtyard, pretends like she has heard everything-but ends up teasing Sid-Pooja by pretending to be angry that they are playing Jijja-Saali games. When Aarti- Siddharth starts flirting, Pooja returns to her room is agitated that her sister is in love. She rings up BBP and asks to meet him. He is happy to hear her voice and tells her about his nomination and agrees to rendezvous with her before his press conference. She leaves the engagement ceremony to go meet BBP.
In the haveli outside courtyard, before boarding his vehicle for the press conference, BBP asks Shuklaji to make sure that Pooja is adequately compensated for her singing appearances. Should there be a shortfall, they should make it up with party funds, but keeping everything above board and clean. Both Shukla and BBP have a Pooja praise ceremony and then adjourn.
In a haveli bedroom (not Madgoli's red boudoir), Ammaji confides to Daddaji that Bangoli is now irreparable. BBP remains silent and Madgoli is on a rampage. Daddaji refuses to find fault with his daughter even when Ammaji points out some psychotic incidents from Madgoli's childhood. Ammaji worries that BBP's indifference might set off dangerous behavior in Madgoli.
In Sarojini park in Bhopal, Pooja and BBP rendezvous in his SUV under a leafy green tree. There is no Brija hugging or hand holding. An extremely tensed Pooja very formally asks BBP for her very first favor... he agrees; only saying she should wait till the vidhan sabha elections are over and defuses her tension (I wonder if he is being his usual astute self, has he gauged Siddarth?) - oh, and he gets not as much as a hug or finger massage from Pooja š. Oh Pooja, the whole purpose of a soulmate is that you can confide your deepest darkest fears and desires!
Pooja gets out of the car and calls the hemorrhoid to tell him that the deed is done but they will need to wait till the VS elections are over. He threatens to delay the marriage if he does not get a joining letter within a week. Then the creep starts to talk to his mom forgetting to switch off the phone (The tiwaris and he are indeed a match made in heaven)... Pooja is aghast when she overhears them machinating about getting both the sisters trapped through the marriage. One would serve as menial help while the other would be the goose who lays the golden eggs...(who wants to join me for a post Siddarth-orchiectomy party?š”š”š”).
Precap:..Madgoli is throwing darts at a dart board that has BBP's face on it. She is obsessing over what he is doing (have you tried asking him politely?). When Giridhar stumbles onto the party, she asks that he report BBP's every single move back to her...(hey why not simply radio collar the guy)
...Generally repugnant episodeš¤¢...except I really am beginning to feel bad for BBP...I hope he sees through Pooja's trouble...
