" Your highly illustrative write-up, especially you positioning 'realisation' as the raison d'etre for today tells me that the epi was built around the core concept or element of 'realizations' and the entire narrative 'unfurled' from that point. It also bespeaks brilliant handling on the storyboard and at 'execution' time.
Let's thus imagine the episode as a 'rosebud' with 'realizations' as the core - and all other story tangents (Saras-Kumud, Kumud-Saras-Kusum, Kumud-Pramad-Saras, a probable Kusum-Danny-Kumari etc) as 'petals'... The rosebud is slowly opening up, and once it does then only will we be able to ascertain if all the petals are a vibrant, rich, strong Red right through, or has 'Black' already crept in dyed the velvet in places with its hue, & curled it around the edges.
So let us all await the day/epi of 'full bloom' friends... =)
Edit: Think of the petals then, as the actions individual characters will make on their respective realisations. That will ensure and determine the strength and 'health' of the petals... And how those actions, executed as a result of today's realisations - will affect the different equations in play, at the level of the larger narrative. "
