Episode Guide - Part 8

After work, Jassi is waiting for her bus to go home when Arman comes out of the garage in his car and offers to give her a ride home. He tells her that since she’s his assistant, she needs to get a car, and she tells him that with her salary she can’t afford to get a car. He tells her that from now on he’s going to take her home every night. He turns on the radio and the song just happens to be a favorite of both of theirs, which makes Arman somewhat amorous and he invites Jassi to go listen to a jazz band at a favorite watering hole. He says that they’re always talking about work and he’d like to get to know her better. Jassi reminds him that she has to finish the report, but Arman says that they can go out, and then go to his apartment and finish the report together. He holds her hand and tells her that he’s very happy to have her with him. Just at that moment someone yells out Arman’s name, and it’s one of the models who’s leaving Gulmohur – time to wake up from your daydream dear Jassi! The model asks Arman for a ride, he starts his car, which he stops when he sees Jassi to tell her to remember to do the report. When she gets home she tells her mother and Nandu that Arman will name her his assistant at a meeting the next morning.

Mallika complains to Mrs. Suri and Mr. Suri about all the responsibility that Arman is giving Jassi. Nandu tells Jassi that she should be proud of all the responsibility that Arman is entrusting her with when she’s only a secretary. Nandu tells Jassi that she should also be proud that with all the women lusting after Arman, she’s the one that’s making Mallika nervous. At the same time, Mrs. Suri is telling Mallika that she can’t believe that she’s fighting with Arman over a girl as ugly as Jassi, because she just can’t fathom that anything could be going on between them. Mallika laughs since of course Jassi is so ugly, and Arman has much better taste in women than that. Jassi tells Nandu about having to doctor the report to the Board Meeting, and he tells her that she’s treading on dangerous ground and someone can find out what she’s doing. She tells him that all the information is password protected on her computer and that only a real computer genius could access the information. As Jassi is saying this, Gulati is in her office with Gulmohur’s computer guy trying to access said password-protected files. Computer guy tells Gulati that the files are inaccessible. Pari asks Raj to promote her to his assistant AND that he also make their personal relationship known. Raj tells her that this is not the appropriate moment for either of her requests. Jassi tells Nandu that it looks like Pari and Raj are an item, and that if Nandu aspires to anything with someone like Pari, he’s going to need a lot of money for her to notice him!

The next morning, Jassi is running late and has another of her encounters with Wilson, who tells her that he’s going to report her late and is going to get in trouble. To which Jassi, way to go Jassi!, tells him that she’s just going to go back home and that he can tell Arman where she is and that if he needs the report she prepared he can come get it. Wilson begs her to stay because this could lead to Arman firing him, and even gets down on his knees to beg her to stay. Pari arrives and makes fun of Wilson, and Jassi asks him how come he’s not going to report Pari as arriving late.

Gulati and Pari agree to mess up Jassi’s PC so she won’t be able to make her report to the Board. To do this they get her out of her office using some lame excuse and Pari does the deed.

Arman talks to Maddy and Mallika to ask them to not mention the issue of the fabric being used for the new designs. Mallika talks to Arman about his relationship with Jassi, saying that it is negatively affecting theirs because for him Jassi is perfect. When Jassi goes back to her office and turns on her PC, she realizes that she can’t access any of her files. Arman is all over Jassi to get her to fix the problem and scolds her for not keeping backup diskettes with the information. They call the PC guy to fix the computer, but he says that he has to take it with him to look at it. Arman goes on one of his famous tirades and yells at Jassi. She starts yelling back, telling him that he’s making her nervous with all the yelling. He’s taken aback by Jassi’s reaction and tells her to follow the PC guy and stay with him until the PC is fixed.

Everyone is gathered at the Board room and Arman tells them that they can’t have the meeting because the report is in Jassi’s damaged computer. Gulati tells Aryan that he took care of screwing up Jassi’s computer (he calls her “la doble fea,” or the “double ugly” kind of the opposite of triple-papito!). Aryan is not very happy about this and tells Gulati that he doesn’t want his name associated with it. The PC guy tells Jassi to cancel the meeting because he’s not going to be able to get the PC fixed just then and asks her for her passwords. Before the Board members, he says that the PC broke down because it was being misused, and Jassi tells him that this is impossible because she’s an experienced computer user. Aryan scolds Jassi for her failure to have back-up copies of the files and she is left looking like a fool in front of everyone. Aryan is about to leave, but Mrs. Suri asks him to stay for lunch. Mr. Suri tells Arman to give up on trying to promote “la feita” (“the little ugly one”) and to just let Pari take care of the meeting. Arman says that he won’t promote Jassi after all. Jassi is in her office and Arman arrives to get a video and again yells at her. She starts to cry and he asks her not to cry because she’s making HIM feel bad (hello! Mr. Selfish Jerk!!). When the Gang finds out what happened to Jassi, they go to her office to try to cheer her up and she tells them the whole story. Maria calls a friend who’s a computer guru and has Jassi talk to him. He tells her that this is not a big problem and that he can get it fixed in an hour.

In the meantime, Mr. Suri calls a “confidence vote” on Arman’s behalf and says that the next board meeting will be held in two months. Aryan says that he wants to audit the company because they can’t let so much time pass without knowing how the company is running. Arman is opposed to this, but they tell him that this is his fault for not having the report ready and he has to acquiesce.

After lunch, the Board members go to Maddy’s to see the designs. The Gang asks the PC guy to give them back Jassi’s computer so that someone else who can actually fix it quickly can take a look at it. He refuses, but Jassi talks to Arman to let him know what’s going on. The Gang goes at it with the PC guy, including Sandra who hits him! Arman tells Mr. PC guy that he has 15 minutes to straighten things out, while the Gang stands guard because they don’t trust him. He gives Jassi the report and the Gang wants to get the PC away from Mr. PC guy, who starts roaming through the computer to find out what secrets they’re guarding so closely. Jassi tells Arman that everything will be ready for the report in 15 minutes, and he tells her that she’s the only one who can make the presentation to the Board Meeting because she’s the only one who’s familiar with the information. He has to give her a pep talk to convince her, and she agrees. She also tells him that she has to get her computer away from the PC guy. Gulati asks PC guy to make him copies of the reports from Jassi’s computer.
