Mismatched Season 1 Episode 2 Recap: Hot Summer, Cold Vibes

The second episode opens with the same scene, the one in which Dimple throws her cold coffee. We see that some coffee splashes on Harsh, who is sitting on a bench next to where Rishi was standing. Harsh wonders what he did to deserve this.

In the next scene, we hear Harsh’s voiceover. He points out that all students come to this institute for different reasons - Some to study, some to date, and some to look for a ‘wife’. But he has come for the wifi.

Harsh is originally from California. He came to Jaipur to spend time with his grandparents. However, there is very low connectivity at their place. So he has joined this course to make use of the wifi at the campus.

Next, we see a black and white sequence of Rishi and Dimple in a very old movie-like setup. Rishi asks Dimple if she would like to get married to him in a very dramatic tone. Dimple agrees. 

The scene breaks with a ringtone, “Om jai jagdish....” and we realize it is a dream of Rishi’s dadi.

Rishi is on the phone. He describes the whole scene that took place with Dimple that day. Dadi starts laughing. She suggests that Rishi let Dimple calm down and talk to her again the next day.

The next day, Dimple enters the class. As there is no other vacant seat for her, she sits beside Rishi. Rishi tries to apologize but Dimple refutes him. Rishi is a bit confused. He wonders why Dimple is not able to recognize him. He confronts her and says that Dimple’s mom has set them up. Dimple is totally unaware about this setup. Both Dimple and Rishi now feel embarrassed.

The camera moves forward and we see Zeenat sitting next to Sid. She introduces herself with the assumption that Sid is a student. However, a student comes up and asks for Sid’s autograph in a book authored by him. Zeenat is perplexed. Then Sid stands up and starts to introduce himself to the whole class. Zeenat is even more confused. She asks another student and realizes that Sid is their teacher.

Sid tells the students that their assignment is to make an app in teams of two. The team that makes the best app will get a very cool internship. 

After some banter in the class, Sid asks for app ideas. We see a visual representation of the ideas of a few students. Sid rejects those ideas and assigns a task to the students. He asks them to go explore Jaipur for a day and click a picture that tells the class who they are. He will pair them based on their pictures.

Everyone leaves to do their assignments. Harsh joins Anmol Malhotra’s gang. Zeenat, Celina, and Dimple are joined by Namrata and Rishi. They go to many places. Everyone is busy clicking photographs, but Dimple is continuously trying to contact her mother. She is upset. Rishi goes to her and apologizes again. This time, Dimple vents to him and shares her feelings with him. She is disappointed that her mother is trying to set her up, even in the institute.  

In the background, Harsh is narrating how ridiculous he feels the assignment is. According to him, how can one find themselves at the age of 18 that too in one day?

Rishi and Dimple walk beside a lake. They are trying to figure out frames for their photographs. Suddenly, an idea pops up in Rishi’s mind and we see him with Dimple in a movie theatre. He is a movie buff. He clicks a picture of the projector and the man operating it. 

Dimple clicks a picture of a flock of birds on a tree.

In the next scene, we see the clicked pictures being projected on the wall. Sid Sir pairs students according to the pictures they have clicked. Anmol and Zeenat, Namrata and Rishi, Celina and Krish, Dimple and Harsh, are paired together. The professor asks Dimple to share her idea. She describes her idea but it gets rejected. Anmol and his group bully Dimple and make fun of her. Then, Dimple’s phone rings. She leaves the class and goes out quickly.

It is her mother on the call. Dimple lashes out on her and cuts the call. 

Harsh meets her at the water station. Dimple is very worked up. She tells him that she is here to top the class and she can make the app alone. Harsh acknowledges her statement. He then mocks her by sharing the idea of a meditation app for girls like her who are always hyper-aggressive. 

Rishi comes up to Dimple and asks if she is okay. Dimple is exasperated. She responds to him rudely and walks away.
