Some interesting lines from the episode:

Cyrus - For a Peddar Road girl, Chakala is like a concentration camp.

-

Menaka - The L&T factory in Powai did not have loos for women.
Cyrus - That's because Larsen and Toubro were both men.
Menaka - There were very few women on the assembly line doofus, that's why no loos.
Cyrus - Doofus? Maine kya kiya!

-


Cyrus - So you were ruling the roost then.
Menaka - I wasn't ruling the roost.
Cyrus - Not you, the channel you egotistical woman.
