Jackson Heights - Episode 25

Honestly, I'm still trying to wrap my head around the fact that this isn't the final episode of this drama - since everything else seemed to end over night this past week... But, anyway...Whereas last week many issues came to a head, it looks like this episode is going to show us how things are going to start settling into place...

...Is what I wished Maria had said. I certainly would've been weirded out by a guy who starts kicking out my sisters old family and friends before he married her. 

But, alas, no! Maria too has been conned by the smooth talking Jamshed. And Rizwan - Rizwan!! - is now the bad guy. 

At least Aliya told Salma to her face that she totally left Bhatti Sahab hanging, especially after all he has done for her. A bit more huff, maybe a walkout...that would've been better. #TeamBhatti
iss se toh acha tha Bhatti sahab ko Aaliyah se pyaar hojata. She's been #TeamBhattiSahab from the start.

15 saal baad Pakistan aaye hein and no one comes to pick him up from the airport?! Hope you didn't get presents for anyone Bhatti Sahab.


Come on Nani. Wake up. Warna, poor Bhatti will have nothing to live for :(
right in the feels bhatti sahab.

Really? Really? Should we look up what the meaning of 'khidmat' is?


Oh Rizwan - don't do this. You tried. Now let her get burnt. Aur yeh Michelle se Mish kub hueen?

Bus rein do Salma Ji. You chose to stay in this marriage. Now how long are you going to continue to act holier-than-thou and keep giving Sikandar one-sided lectures? You made your bed, now lay aaram se in it.
read her facial expressions sikander...its not about pasta versus salad...


Yeh aik number ki lalchi aurat baaz nahi aaygi. In one single character this drama has been able to embody every blood-sucking leech-type relative Pakistanis living overseas have to face. 
1 - She thinks because you live in America, you can just take anyone to America with you. And give them a cushy job. And help them make big bucks. 
2 - Is sweet as honey before you unpack your bags (you know your suitcases that must be stuffed with all the goodies just for her).
3 - Drops subtle (and not so subtle) hints about when you will unpack your suitcases. (...now?....now?.....how about NOW?)
4 - When she learns you got her nothing (or nothing you brought for her meets her standards or you didn't bring back enough stuff for her), she just asks for money to buy whatever she wants because she miraculously remembers ke Pakistan mein sub kuch milta hei. (okay never show this review to your family..heheh)

*Jaw drop*


The leech sends leech jr. to get 'dollars' from his chachu. #FutureJamshedInTraining

If they're so poor, then how can they afford a pool that size? How can they afford a house with footage to house a pool that size? Just how much does Salma Ji make? And how is she supporting the family anymore if she's not going to work? So many questions...

Chalo - even sasu maa is not spared the bitter barbs. But like me, she ain't impressed. #GetOverIt or #GetOut

#NoComment


Wait - WHAT? These two aren't done yet? The scheming continues?

I feel for you Bhatti. Your life really sucks. Actually, your relatives really suck. 

I hope you're happy now.


True to his nature, Bhatti Sahab neither hates nor blames Salma. And he wants to give his lalchi relatives the house instead of start a bitter legal battle there too. 

Will good ever win over evil in this drama??

Confession time: I have struggled with the review of this episode
(which is why i havent added much to it) because let's be honest...this drama is brilliant. 

Yes there were some in the start. We might not have liked where some of the story arcs were headed. But as this drama draws to a close the writer and director have pulled everything tightly. Let's see how they end things tonight. 
I see you copping out, N  :P
But come on, admit it...you're a little in love with Bhatti Sahab and waiting for him to get a happy ending too, right?

Actually...
 i kind of like wolverine...
 and i'm hoping his ending isn't as bad as what he deserves.even wolverines deserve happy endings...so...yeah...
