Enough of my melodrama, getting back to the drama, Farah feels sorry for Aunty Ruqayya and Molvi Saheb (really?) since their only son has left for Karachi and Lubna mocks her saying that she's fallen in love with Afzal. Farah stands by her statement of feeling bad for his parents but nah, I'm not buying it. Lubna warns her Barabar ka soloog karega tumharey saath and for a split second Farah seems intimidated. But that was just for a split second, mind you. Our tigress is back in full form and she announces her desire to pursue her M Phil in Karachi instead of London, but this time around Sheikh Saheb blunty lets out a big fat NO! About time, isn't it? Sheikh Saheb's defining moment- Mein Tumhara Baap Houn Koi Chaney Beechney Wala Nahin! Now that her parents know that Farah acts before she thinks, they've finally opened their eyes and want to put an end to her manmaani.
Afzal continues his male bonding routine and confides in Babu about how he's come to Karachi to become a bara aadmi and how he won't leave until he accomplishes his goals. Meh. Since they didn't want to make us uneasy, they used plenty of cricket analogies to keep the conversation flowing. With the letters out of sight, so was Arifa thankfully! Did anyone else do a happy dance that she wasn't around? If I were to sum up this episode in one word, I would say DISAPPOINTED. This was such a promising story and had a raw, feel-good factor but alas, it wasn't meant to be.
