The episode begins with a nurse asking Mahadev to complete the discharge procedure. Mahadev excuses himself, while Shlok confronts Ira, pushing her away and questioning why she felt the need to hug him in front of his in-laws. Ira hugs him again, insisting that she cares for him deeply and declaring that if Apollena tries to separate them, she would rather die. In anger, Shlok pushes her down and warns her to back off. Just then, Mahadev arrives and notices that Shlok’s IV needle has come out. Ira offers to fix it, but Shlok dismisses her, stating that she isn’t as knowledgeable as Apollena and insists he will handle it himself.
Apollena, lost in her thoughts, is brought into the scene by Ira, who is pushing Shlok in a wheelchair. In her distraction, Apollena loses her balance and ends up sitting in the wheelchair. Shlok claims he can walk now, but Apollena advises him to stay in the wheelchair for safety. He insists that Apollena push him instead of Ira, claiming that Ira will tire herself out. Ira argues that she can take better care of Shlok, but he maintains that Apollena is the one who should look after him. Mahadev reinforces this by reminding Shlok that Apollena has been fasting for him, highlighting her dedication as his wife. He reassures Shlok that with Apollena by his side, he has nothing to worry about, likening them to Parvati and Mahadev.
Frustrated by the situation, Ira watches as Apollena takes Shlok home. Once there, Shlok informs Apollena about his medication, mentioning that the doctor prescribed it in her absence and that she saved his life. He tells her she must take care of him since she is his wife. Apollena promises to look after him, and Shlok expresses his love for her through a hug. However, Apollena asks him not to say anything, realizing she might be imagining his feelings.
She hands him the medicine but insists that he can manage on his own and that she doesn’t need to fulfill her wifely duties. Shlok urges her to attend college, stating that he will manage by himself and that she shouldn’t miss classes for his sake. Sarswati agrees, encouraging Apollena to go to college since she has already taught everything to Ira, who can take care of Shlok. Apollena appears lost in her thoughts as she contemplates the situation.
As Apollena packs her lunchbox, Madhu calls her via video chat and questions how she can go to college while Shlok is unwell. She warns her that if she doesn’t dedicate time to him, someone else will. Apollena, feeling the pressure, unpacks her lunchbox. Meanwhile, Shlok demands that Ira leave his room, insisting he can drink the soup by himself. Ira points out that he still has an IV in his hand and questions how he will manage. She accidentally spills the soup on his clothes, prompting his irritation.
Ira offers to clean it up, but Apollena steps in, stating that as his wife, it’s her responsibility to take care of him, implying that he doesn’t need Ira’s assistance. Shlok then asks Apollena to feed him the soup. Observing this, Ira feels a surge of jealousy and confides in Sarswati, who begins to devise a plan against Apollena.
