The episode opens with Mannat entering Dev’s room, where she finds Alisha. Mannat asks Alisha what she’s doing there, but Alisha snaps back, insisting that Mannat is interfering in her affairs. Unbothered, Mannat wakes Dev, asking him if he invited Alisha to his room. Dev denies having called anyone, leading Mannat to instruct Alisha to leave, stating that Dev is now a married man. Determined, Mannat decides to take Dev back to her room, ignoring Alisha’s protests. In her frustration, Alisha accidentally breaks a jar.
Once in Mannat’s room, Mannat realizes that Dev is intoxicated. She offers him water and a towel, but Dev reveals he took sleeping pills. Mannat feels uneasy and suggests that Dev stay in his own room while she sleeps outside. However, Dev insists that he can’t let her do that, fearing that others will blame him and question his character. He accuses Mannat of always being ready to accuse him, declaring that he is not a characterless person. Dev argues that he cannot disrespect a woman, emphasizing the importance of consent and claiming she can view him falsely if she chooses.
Mannat tries to reassure Dev, explaining that she trusts him completely and that her intentions are not to insult his family. She pleads with him to stay in the room while she sleeps outside. Dev questions whether she would feel comfortable outside, and Mannat suggests they share the room. Ultimately, Dev decides to sleep on the sofa while Mannat takes the bed.
The next morning, Satpal greets Mannat and inquires about the previous night. Dev, fearing that Satpal might have learned about Mannat sleeping in his room, is tense. Satpal mentions the medicine Dev took and tells him he should enjoy the paratha Mannat made in memory of Jeet bhai. Dev coldly informs Satpal that he won’t forgive Mannat and walks away. Satpal encourages Mannat to give Dev some time, assuring her that he will eventually recognize her innocence.
Later, Dev informs Sakshi that he’s going out for some work. Ashish asks where he’s headed, but Dev brushes past her without a reply.
Meanwhile, Falak visits Mannat and shows her a video clip revealing Rudra mixing something into her mocktail. Furious, Mannat decides to confront Rudra and teach him a lesson. Babita and Annu overhear their conversation and plot to interfere. As Mannat and Falak leave to confront Rudra, Annu intentionally bumps into Mannat to disrupt her plans.
Confronting Rudra, Mannat angrily accuses him of drugging her drink. Rudra dismisses her claims, insisting she’s mistaken and challenges her, saying he will tell everyone it was his drink. Mannat counters that she has video evidence, but Rudra smirks, claiming he’s not afraid of her and threatens her.
Upon returning home, Mannat is met by Jaydeep, who questions where she has been without informing anyone.
Sakshi then shows Mannat pictures of herself with Rudra, leaving Mannat shocked. Jaydeep expresses his regret for calling her “Bahu,” and when Mannat attempts to explain, Annu and Babita interrupt, trying to shift the blame. Mannat insists she never drinks and that Rudra spiked her mocktail. She asserts to Jaydeep that she has solid proof of what happened.
