Wowie, okay today was a decent episode, where I am promptly going to ignore the insult sessions and focus in what I liked, coz the makers gave us a lot of good stuff to discuss.
The episode starts at the police station where Imlie and Rupi di are informed that there is a mission being planned to deal with the situation at hand. Imlie asks Rupi di to create a distraction so that she can find out what is happening. Imlie finds out that the government is not planning to release Anand bhai, as he has crucial information that can be useful to them and the journos like AKT are dime a dozen. Imlie as usual losses her cool and berates the officers that they are risking her husband's life, where he is also equally important as them, as he fights for junta's awaaz. She warns them that she will not allow anyone to play with his life and will make sure that AKT is rescued. The police get mad that she interrupted their meeting and found out everything, so they take hold of her to deal with her. Imlie's passionate speech while good, was maybe done at the wrong time, as it has further reaching consequences than she could have imagined.
Finally we see that SK has found out from his khabri that AKT is kidnapped. He asks his khabri to find out all about where is AKT and how he is. Meeti hears it and gets worried, as she knows that Imlie would be worried sick. She asks SK to call the T house where PT pucks up the phone. When PT realizes that it is SK, AT takes the phone to talk. There Meethi tries to find out if ADI is fine (There also Meethi first enquired about Adi rather than asking about her own daughter, and here the T'sš¤¦, kuch nahi jo sakta inka). Aparna uses this opportunity to blame Imlie and them for this entire situation and asks to go away and leave the T family alone (The T's deserve Imlie to leave them and go. Only after your kawach goes away do you become vulnerable, but these people will not understand that now). Anyway, Meethi realizes that Imlie is all alone in her right, as even Adi is not there to support her. SK reminds her that as long as both of them are alive, Imlie will never be alone. Yay, go dadda, jaake un sab ko bata do that you are no baghi, but a krantikari that will get them their beta back.
Imlie is escorted home along with Rupi di by the police, who spin their story differently and try to put all the blame in Imlie that due to her their mission to save Adi was interrupted and that would have put Adi's life in danger (chal jhoote. Aap usual officials wanting to save their behinds). This leads to another eruption from Aparna, albeit a milder one by earlier standards (she currently has stopped calling Imlie names, so that is P for progression š¤¦). Seeing Aparna hyper gets PT also to the fray where he tries to warn Imlie that if anything happens to Adi, then she will be responsible for a mother losing her life. Imlie reminds them that if anything happened to Adi, then even she will not be able to live, reminding her that BS is not only her son, but Imlie's husband. But as usual yeh sab baatein sunne ke liye Aparna has to be able to listen na, abhi toh usne apna kaam aur dimag donon bandh karke rakha hai. Anyway uske baad I found it funny how she tried using her ancient paitra of locking Imlie in a room to keep her from doing anything harsh. Usse lagta hai that she will stay inside like her Adi (wahaan pe bhi Adi jaise treat kiya saying if you want to stay in my house, u live by my rules, then last mein dialogue marti hai to remind herself that she is mad, so bolti ha that after Adi comes home, she will throw Imlie out again. Pata hai jhoot bol rahi hai, but it was cute to see Aparna all huffing and puffing. Aaj woh typical masala movies type mom/saas lag rahi thi, which lands up looking like a puppy trying to bark - kuch asar nahi hota kisi par bhiš) Also, Aparna forgot that this is Imlie and not her nazuk beta. Jo ladki pedh par charkar fresh shahad laa sakti hai, usse ek band darwaza thodi rok sakta hai. She remembers the police saying that the terrorists were keeping Adi in an abandoned warehouse at sector 4 and decides to go looking for him on her own. She finds an open window and jumps out to go and save her Babusaheb. Go Imlie!!
Bechari Imlies lands up on an empty road having multiple paths, that confuse her as to which path to take. She contemplates between taking help from Malini or the police. Itne confusion main she asks her beat friend Sita Maiyya's help. Sita Maiyya send her a vision of her Babusaheb to give her hausla. So we finally get a dream conversation of ADI and Imlie (hume laga telepathy se baat karenge, but we will take this for sure over man se baat). Adi calls her Jhalli (she does not call him SL back for the first time, but okay situation) and asks her what happened. She is confused looking at so many paths, to which Adi reminds her that if her manzil is getting to him, no matter that path she takes, kismat will ensure that she gets to him. This statement gave me hope in a lot of levels. It forbode that no matter which raasta Imlie takes now or in the future, all roads will always lead her to Adi only as her destination. Poor thing goes to hug him, but realizes that he is a mirage. But that mirage has given Imlie the resolve to fight like Savitri to get back her husband from Yam.
Anyway in the flip side, I loved how DD was being shown the mirror by both KC and AC, but DD dismisses them in the pretext of being "worried" for Adi. When KC reminds her that Imlie is Adi's wife and calls out her plan to save him so that Adi falls at her feet in gratitude (man that guy has caught DD pulse so well, it was like her was voicing what we said yesterday onlyš¤£), she tries to berate him by saying that the current situation is not conducive for Imlie's truth to come out, hence she is doing all thisš (man DD sure does know how to spin her words to suit the situation and make her look bechariš¤¦). On the other hand AC catches DD trying to go to the T hoise to give "moral support" and tries to again show her the mirror while calling her actions as someone who still wants to be the T house bahu, even if ADI does not want her. Se this is what happens when you cry wolf too many times. The one time AC talked sense was completely dismissed, as her previous actions have completely destroyed her credibility š¤¦. While I have absolutely no soft spot remaining for AC after the stint she pulled, today she actually was talking sense, but that got swept under the carpet due to her past actions.
Anyway, the precap was promised to be a good ine, and bit did it deliver. Adi and Imlie meet (Haye that was beautifully done) and gunshots ensue, which has them running again like the Dil Se sequence, with Adi's zulfein flying. Anyway they fall and get seperated, with Adi being taken away by someone just as Imlie tries to hold in to him, followed by the sound of a gunshot. This really has ne excited for next week, which looks to be a dhamakedar masala movie un the making. Bring it on, we are ready with šæ.
