The episode begins with Ira pretending to be intoxicated in an effort to grab Shlok’s attention. Apollena, sensing something is off, decides to confront her, pouring water on Ira to break her act. As Apollena questions Ira’s behavior, she continues to feign drunkenness. Apollena, determined to expose her, drags Ira out of the room and offers her lemon juice, which Ira flatly refuses. When Apollena forces her to drink it, Ira quickly regains her composure and scolds her instead.
Noticing Ira’s sudden clarity, Apollena calls her out for trying to take advantage of Shlok. She shows Shlok a video of Ira’s antics, leading him to question her about it. Ira vehemently denies any wrongdoing, but Apollena accuses her of lacking shame for setting up a camera to distort the truth. Angered, Shlok lashes out at Apollena. She insists that Ira leave, but Ira plays the victim, pleading with Shlok not to send her away, claiming her house is locked and she has nowhere to go. Shlok softens slightly, saying it’s not right to throw her out at this hour, while Apollena argues that Ira should leave by morning or she’ll kick her out herself.
The tension rises when Ira tries to use the fear of what Saraswati will think against Apollena, but Apollena dismisses her, vowing to reveal the truth about Ira’s manipulations. As Ira pretends to stumble again, Apollena tells her to walk straight. Frustrated, Ira storms off, leaving Shlok surprised and disappointed in her behavior. Apollena labels Ira a selfish girl, insisting she’ll go to any lengths to gain Shlok’s affection.
Shlok seems impressed by Apollena’s straightforwardness and acknowledges her qualities as a potential daughter-in-law, noting that she brings order to the household. Apollena, however, questions how Ira, who is creating chaos, could possibly run a family. When Shlok offers to support Apollena in her endeavors, she suggests they clean up the house together, leading to a moment where Shlok playfully asks her to dance.
Ira, witnessing this interaction, feels a surge of frustration and plots to take drastic measures the following day. Meanwhile, Shlok notices Apollena’s jealousy over his closeness with Ira, which she ardently denies.
As the episode unfolds, Apollena grapples with her feelings for Shlok, feeling both love and self-loathing for her affection. Despite her internal conflict, she resolves to pursue her dreams, determined to rise above her feelings of insecurity.
The episode concludes with the stakes higher than ever, as relationships become increasingly strained, and tensions between the characters intensify.
