Episode 10- Update by Pranx ( Sorry for the delay)
Episode starts with a continuation of the previous episode's last scene. Shelly is shocked that Vish had the audacity to grab her arm. In her typical, "Mr. Kelkar" style, she asks him, "What nonsense is this?" Vish who has now started flirting openly with her, just smiles at her and points with his eyes. She looks in the direction he's pointing to find a bunch of live wires on the floor. She goes to thank him but he just gives his most charming smile and goes away, leaving her tongue tied. (If there is anyone who can make Shelly speechless, it's Vish) Rita meanwhile is busy acting as Nick's personal nurse instead of the GM. Through a crack in the door, Bindra sees Nick sprawled on the bed and Rita on top of him. He is scandalized and immediately goes to tell everyone this garma garam news. (Actually Rita was helping Nick with the phone). Vish who is also there says that it was a no-contest between him and Rita because he's from Ulhasnagar while she was from Univ. of California and was Nick's buddy. (A blooper: Ulhasnagar is a Sindhi area. It was originally for the Sindhi refugees. Kelkar is a Marathi surname. You won't find Marathi people in Ulhasnagar unless they are government servants.) He asks Simi why she didn't tell him that she knew Shelly had selected Rita as GM. Simi defends herself saying that she is Shelly's PA and can't go about leaking her decisions to the staff. Colonel supports her while the rest side with Vish.
Govind has an argument with
Shelly over Devyani.
Shelly goes crying to the terrace. There she sees a
tourist guide with some tourists. On enquiry, she finds out that Bobby was
trying to make quick buck by allowing tourists without booking into the hotel.
She was going to fire him, but when Bobby pleads with her citing his alcohol
problem as the cause of his misdemeanors, she relents and offers him one last
chance. Meanwhile Vish goes to Govind go get a reco for his next job. They have
a frank talk where Govind tells him that even though he would not want to lose
Vish to some other hotel for both personal as well as professional reasons; he
will not be an obstacle in his path to success. Vish leaves after taking his
blessings.
A photographer, Jerome comes
to HK. He drops a lot of names and flirts with Payal. Everyone is star-struck.
Shelly comes to Nick's room to find Rita feeding Nick. She gets angry and
jealous at the same time. She orders her out of the room asking her to solve
the overbooking problem at the reception desk. Nick enjoys seeing Shelly
jealous. She just snaps at him and goes. Vish has an interview at hotel Du
Pont. They offer him the position of GM. He is very happy and promises to get
back to them. On his way out he meets Akash. That's when he realizes that he
got this job because of Akash and he doesn't like it a bit. Back at HK, Rita is
desperately trying to solve the problem. Shelly comes there and orders her to
solve the problem in 5 mins. Vish overhears this and offers his help, but
Shelly refuses it.
But Vish, in his inimitable style manages to solve the problem behind her back.
The next day, Rita gives her
first presentation on her ideas for the future of HK. It's a really childish
and immature presentation. Govind walks out in the middle of it. Funny moment:
Rita says the faade of HK should be impressive enough for the American
visitors to come to HK. Govind asks "How will the people from US see the faade
from US?" Nick is the only one who keeps applauding wildly during the
presentation while the rest just keep on staring at each other.
Even Shelly is bitterly disappointed. Govind voices his reservations about Rita but Shelly asks him to trust her judgment (hahaha!! According to your judgment, vish should have been fired a long time ago!)
Govind is reading a newspaper in the lawn when he sees people trying to put up a huge hoarding of HK in the grounds. Vish comes there and Govind expresses his disapproval about what's going on in HK. Just then Rita too comes there, all worked up like a bubbly child. Looking at her Govind can't seem to decide if she's really that nave or just plain stupid. Shelly is also there to oversee the work. Govind deliberately asks Vish about his new job in front of her. He tells him that he has been offered the position of GM. Shelly overhears this. Vish says he's not sure if he'll take their offer. Later Shelly and Vish happen to share the same lift. This time Shelly starts the conversation. Her curiosity gets better of her and she asks him how much he's being offered. Vish nonchalantly says that it's better than what he expected. The lift stops at the next floor and both of them try to get out at the same time. Shelly gets embarrassed and says she wants to go to the next floor. Vish says he wants to go to the top floor. (Sooo cute)
Meanwhile a few shady people come
to the hotel. They are actually bookies. Nick was showing Jerome around the
hotel when they bump into Rita. It is love at first sight for Jerome and Rita.
They agree to meet in the Disc in the evening. Devyani comes to HK all drunk and
demands to meet Shelly. Govind and Vish escort her to his room to avoid creating
a scene in the lobby. There Devyani gives Shelly a piece of her mind in spite of
Govind's protestations. She tells her that she stood by Govind in his bad times.
The 4 crores missing from the HK account were given to her so that she could build
a home for Shelly. She asks to think about others feelings for at least once in
her life instead of being so self- centered. All this while, Vish was in the room
in one corner. Govind manages to take Devyani to another room. Shelly is on the
verge of tears. Vish tries to explain that Devyani was always there with Mr. Sahai
in his good times and bad. But Shelly brusquely tells him that he is just the AGM
of HK and should mind his own business. All the sympathy that vish felt for Shelly
vanishes in a second and he asks her tauntingly if there is even a single person
in her life who she can count on to always stand by her? After he leaves, Shelly
comes out to see Rita and Nick together, enjoying themselves, oblivious to her pain.
