In the previous episode, we saw that Ishita and Rajat are very disturbed because of the rumour. Rajat is trying very hard to contact her but Ishita does not want to hear a word from him.

This episode starts with Rajat trying to approach Ishita who is avoiding him. She is furious with him. She does not trust him anymore and thinks that it was Rajat who spread this rumour to look cool in front of his friends. Gaurav is also angry because Rajat is mad at him for spreading such a disgusting rumour. Gaurav is not ready to admit his mistake and instead blames Rajat for the mess. Anusha tries to talk to Rajat who is really irritated. He is annoyed because Ishita is ignoring him. He is ready to get scolded and even slapped by her, but just wants one chance to justify himself to Ishita. Anusha gives him hope by saying that she will try to talk to Ishita and make a plan so they can patch up.

Rajat and Gaurav have a test in their class. Gaurav is seen cheating as always, but this time from someone else’s paper. Rajat, despite being a bright student, is not able to focus on the paper. He cannot stop thinking about Ishita and the rumour.

Gaurav goes to Mr. Momos and asks for paneer momos. He is frustrated and blabbers about Rajat to the momos seller and people around him. When asked for Rs. 190 that Rajat did not pay the momos seller last time, Gaurav complains about the paneer momos that he has been served right now. He tells him that the momos have no taste. Gaurav’s annoyance is very childlike.

Meanwhile, Anusha talks to Ishita after the class. With the flow of the conversation, she asks Ishita to give Rajat a chance to tell his side of the story. Simultaneously, two boys gossip about Rajat and Ishita. After this, Anusha is left with nothing to justify her friend and Ishita also does not forgive him. She is embarrassed to listen to such baseless gossip.

Rajat tries everything to grab her attention. He waits for her outside her class, calls her and texts her incessantly. Finally that night, he gets a reply from her. She agrees to meet him after the tuition. Rajat is on cloud nine. He calls Anusha to give this good news and she suggests that he buy a gift for Ishita.

On their way to the tuition, Anusha tells Gaurav that after everything is sorted between Ishita and Rajat, she will try to bridge the differences between Rajat and him. But, Gaurav still plays the victim and blames Rajat for shouting at him.

Rajat waits for Ishita with a wand and practices how to say ‘Expecto Patronum’. He wants to give her the wand as a gift. When she arrives, he hides the wand and greets her. Ishita is not ready for a meet-and-greet and asks him to get to the point. Rajat apologizes and is about to tell him about how Gaurav had spread the rumour when she interrupts him and asks him to not repeat the same story every now and then. She is not concerned about why Gaurav did so. She is only worried about her reputation and that her father may receive a complaint of her from the tuition. After she rebukes him, Ishita leaves the place. Gaurav and Anusha arrive there. Gaurav apologizes to Rajat but Rajat shrugs him away. He is troubled and wants to be left alone right now.

Pradeep Sir distributes the test papers to his class. Gaurav has passed the test for the first time. But, Rajat fails in this test. Pradeep Sir asks him to bring his mother with him next time. When Rajat requests him to not tell his mother about this, Pradeep Sir says that he has already called up his mother. Rajat is stressed and does not know how to handle things anymore.

I did not expect this episode to turn out this dark. I really hope things sort out between the four friends. Their friendship looks very precious and they do not deserve to lose each other over a stupid rumour.

Episode Rating- 3.5/5
