Hello Aani! Good morning as I get ready for bed 😆, I am far from holding any honors let alone honors in literature, I am not that learned. But I will be more than happy to discuss books, please suggest some for me and I'll suggest them to you. 😊

Thank you for tying in the previous episodes for me, a lot of it makes sense now of why this scene was added to the screenplay. Till now I was debating with G and Swathi and actually questioning my stance about the said scene and my views regarding the same. Now that i read what I happened in the past I see why the scene was introduced! You are a savior.

Raman's past is his biggest blessings and his biggest curse! Blessing is he learns from his past and MOVES on and curse because he is till fixated on it and let's it dictate his present. He is judging every book by it's cover and not giving himself the chance of redemption and happiness. You are so apt in saying that no amount of success and accolades can stand tall in the face of personal matters. Love and marriage is such that you hand over the power to your loved one trusting them with the most vulnerable part of yourself. Raman has yet to find his vulnerability and yet to hand over the power to Ishita, when that happens sparks will fly!

'To prove himself to his past he rose in stature, to hold onto his present he ironically fell from grace. How they make their way now lost between the darkness of the past and the shadows of the present would make this marriage. ' 👏👏👏

Hey Doc hope you had a pleasant sleep cos your post just made my day 😃 Sure someday we would get to discussing books absolutely. I would be enriched 😳

@red - last night I was too overwhelmed the first time when I saw the whole thing, the second I was taking things in on the LU where most of us gather to take pieces apart but after a night' sleep I realized I am having a weird deja vu with this one and reading your post BAM - that scene hit me.

posting it for ya

@blue - yep the past makes him learn to not repeat the same mistakes but in order to avoid repeating himself the man makes new one - human error - like you said he is judging the book by its cover. He is letting his vision cloud his judgement - he is assuming what I see is the truth and nothing else could be and is too scared cos of his past to actually muster the courage and speak up about it. His insecurity because of his past scarrs him and has made him so jaded...and ironically that insecurity is the very thing he hides. I would like to recall the recent hospital scene and another scene of Ishita Ruhi...recently Ruhi got Ishita to eat when she laid herself bare - said she is scared of losing her Ishima, what did the woman do - she embraced her child and did the needed that would pacify her - she ate. Similarly when Ruhi took a stand for Ishita and stated her papa did wrong, her papa doesnt love her and it scares her that her Ishimaa may leave her Ishita immediately soothed her and said you are enough for me, your love is more than enough for me the night Raman made Ishita say sorry to Adi...all Raman has to do is follow the path his daughter has shown to him time and again - to bare fears and trust the one you are baring them in front of to accept them and protect you rather than mask them as your strength, as he did last night. He tried to overpower her in a way, intimidate her because he is scared...he had to only show his fears not scare her to really get her to embrace him.

Cant help but recall a lovely quote by a book I fell in love with here; since last night he adopted monstrosity to hide his vulnerability scared it would be laughed at

"Oh, monsters are scared," said Lettie. "That's why they're monsters."
Neil Gaiman, The Ocean at the End of the Lane

When he would accept this and bare himself to her would he realize how futile was it to hide, rather how mistaken he was to have done it in the first place...he is masking himself in the fear she would run away lest she see who he really is, unable to understand she sees him already and has loved him for the man he is - flaws and all, she just wants him to come to her and reveal himself of his own free will and not run scared. He may have fooled the world but not her; only in assuming that he has fooled her too, he is fooling himself. 😳

"I tore off my mask so as not to lose one of her tears... and she did not run away!...and she did not die!... She remained alive, weeping over me, weeping with me. We cried together! I have tasted all the happiness the world can offer."
Gaston Leroux, The Phantom of the Opera

If I will write something here, it surely won't justify this brilliant piece of work.

Let me be the mute spectator.

I was unable to sleep last night.. due to the episode of course.. it was quite disturbing.. when I started browsing IF to find some news about the show.. and I caught your post.😛

As I read through it, I was taken over by the calmness and serenity of your words. The story of Plato and Socrates made me think about what I perceived as love and marriage..very philosophical and thought-provoking!

The connections you have made with the show and the stories.. hats off to you Doc!👏 A smile crept over my lips as I closed my tab and my eyes.. I was asleep in a second. Like I said, your post brought the calmness into my mind which was extremely restless. Sorry I couldn't comment then.. but you have magic in the way you present a post Doc and thank you🤗
