Fairy Tale 2 Episode 2 Part 1 Written Update & Review
Assalam Alaikum, people and greetings, my fellow followers of the absurd! I’m Shabana Mukhtar, and it’s time to dissect the latest serving of “Fairytale Season 2.” Strap in, because this episode comes with a title that’s more of a mathematical equation than a name. Now, let’s peel back the layers of this head-scratching episode in my trademark witty and sarcastic style.
What’s with the name?
Part 1 of the second episode has hit our screens, and as usual, we’re confronted with a naming convention that requires a PhD in deciphering. Fairytale 2 Episode 1 Part 1 – it’s like they’re trying to give us a numerical riddle before we even start watching. If they’re releasing two episodes every week, just name them numerically.
Can’t we just go with the good old Episode 1, Episode 2, and so on? Why call it Fairytale 2 Episode 1 Part 1; Fairytale 2 Episode 1 Part 2 and so on.
Annoying Ummeed
Now, let’s talk about the “heroine” of our saga, Ummeed. Yes, she’s back, and yes, she’s just as painfully annoying as ever. In a meeting where Farjad is discussing important projects, Ummeed decides to turn it into a lullaby session with her snoozing and snoring. And the cherry on top? She’s genuinely miffed when Farjad politely asks her to leave. Seriously, Ummeed? How naive do you have to be? He was maintainng the office decorum. Falling asleep in a meeting and expecting a medal instead of a reprimand? Bravo.
But wait, it gets even better. Ummeed rushes to Mimi’s house to complain about Farjad’s audacity to, you know, expect professionalism. Because who needs office decorum when you can just sob on a friend’s shoulder and blame your boss for being… well, your boss?
Silly Hero
Now, let’s shift the spotlight to Farjad, the man who apparently fell in love with Ummeed because a meteorite hit him on the noggin. Not only does he hire the walking embodiment of a migraine, but he also seems surprised when she acts… well, like Ummeed. It’s like saying:
Aa bail, mujhe maar…
I said this in the last review and I don’t mind repeating it:
Farjad, choice bari hi buri hai aap ki.
Nageen’s obsession of being the “saas”
Ah, the only saving grace – Nageen. She’s back with her villainous endeavors, trying to sprinkle some comedy into this whirlwind of confusion. At least she provides a smidgen of entertainment amidst the chaos.
Review
In conclusion, Part 1 of Episode 1 in this numerically challenging season of “Fairytale” doesn’t disappoint in delivering its signature dose of annoyance and bewilderment. Ummeed continues her reign as the queen of absurdity, Farjad plays the bewildered romantic, and Nageen adds a touch of humor. Stay tuned for the next thrilling episode, where perhaps we’ll get some answers to the burning questions that this show leaves us with. Until then, keep your sanity intact and your remote control at the ready!
Until next time, happy watching!
