And somewhere it’s the colonial era, a war is going on in 1944 Calcutta, but silently amid the mayhem a love story culminates between a Bengali Zamindar woman and a British General. She has fallen deeply in love with him and saves his life and starts living with him in his home town in County Durham, England. It’s only after her demise, her son finds many truths about his mother who could save only one thing from her past and made it her identity, her handmade Calcutta Pudding. In this chapter Abe visits his mother's maternal home, the Roy Villa and finds out that his mother has been long erased from the minds of her family members. This breaks his heart and what he does next will be revealed in this episode.
