The episode begins with Malishka reminding Kiran that their purpose for being there is Rishi. She presses Kiran to fetch Rishi, insisting that she wants him present. Frustrated by Malishka’s constant demands, Kiran argues back, expressing her annoyance at being unappreciated for everything she does.
Meanwhile, Rishi is reviewing Lakshmi’s medical reports when he accidentally collides with a ward boy, causing him to drop the files. He quickly picks them up and leaves, unaware that Lakshmi is worried he might discover her pregnancy from the report.
Malishka then concedes to Kiran that it feels like Rano loves Lakshmi more than Kiran loves Malishka. Offended, Kiran comments sharply on Malishka’s behavior and storms off.
Neelam approaches Kiran and inquires about her presence. Just then, Kiran spots Rishi and Ayush approaching. She explains to Neelam that she’s worried about Malishka, who is under a lot of stress and needs Rishi by her side for support. Neelam reassures Kiran that Rishi will be with Malishka.
Rishi pulls Neelam aside to express his concern that Lakshmi’s doctor knows something she’s not revealing. Neelam suggests that Rishi should examine Lakshmi’s report for the answer he seeks. Rishi agrees and opens the report just as Lakshmi witnesses the moment and pretends to faint. Concerned, Rishi rushes to her side, asking if she’s okay. Lakshmi claims she’s fine, and Shalu joins them. Lakshmi quickly snatches the report from Rishi and exits with Shalu, crafting a hasty excuse.
Kiran soon notices Malishka approaching and inquires why she’s there. Malishka then unexpectedly falls into Rishi’s arms, as he catches her. She tells Rishi she wants to go home, to which Kiran and Neelam readily agree, and they all head to the Oberoi mansion.
Meanwhile, Anushka contemplates how to get Ayush to take her back to the Oberoi mansion, but Neel dissuades her, telling her to stop dreaming as it will never happen.
Shalu presses Lakshmi, anxious that she might be hiding something. Lakshmi reassures her that there’s nothing to worry about, promising she will reveal the truth when the time is right.
Neel provides Anushka with insights into the differences between how men and women think, asserting that Ayush will never take her back to the Oberoi mansion. Undeterred, Anushka declares she will find a way to leverage Malishka for access to the Oberoi household.
Later, the entire group returns to the Oberoi mansion. Malishka feigns weakness and requests Neelam to have Kiran carry her to her room, knowing Kiran is upset with her. However, Neelam insists that Rishi should carry Malishka instead, believing Kiran won’t manage it. Rishi reluctantly complies and lifts Malishka into his arms, taking her to her room.
As Lakshmi observes Rishi and Malishka together, Neelam questions Rishi as to why he seems to have stopped. Lakshmi quietly slips into her room while Rishi continues carrying Malishka.
The episode concludes on this note of tension and intrigue.
