The episode begins with Mannat getting an update from Dev about Satpal gathering information. Mannat suggests that Dev take a break and serves him tea. Just then, Satpal calls to inform Dev that a boy named Vicky is involved in illegal animal poaching. Dev decides to confront Vicky about it but is hesitant to let Mannat join him, despite her insistence that she can help due to her knowledge of exotic animals. Mannat reminds Dev of her promise to Jeet and urges that they approach Vicky discreetly together. Ultimately, Dev agrees to let Mannat accompany him and assures her that he won’t keep anything from her. He emphasizes that he will handle the questioning carefully to avoid any danger.
As they prepare for their meeting, Mannat shares a troubling dream she had, which makes Dev happy; it shows how much she cares for him. He becomes curious about Mannat’s feelings for him, sensing that their relationship has grown deeper than friendship. Meanwhile, Satpal contacts Dev again, telling him to inform Vicky that a buyer is coming for an exotic animal. Mannat reflects on her evolving feelings for Dev, while Dev is anxious about the potential of losing her.
On another front, Rudra plots to eliminate Dev, but his gang is hesitant. Alisha approaches Rudra, eager to be part of his plan, but he refuses her involvement. Alisha threatens to expose Rudra with the proof she has against him, prompting a tense exchange where he warns her to back off, or risk her life. She asserts that Dev has seen her at the poaching site but has kept quiet about it. Rudra reveals his intention to kill Dev and tries to persuade Alisha to assist him. However, Alisha firmly opposes the idea, threatening to go to the police with the evidence. Recognizing her cunningness, Rudra begrudgingly forgives Dev for now.
Dev and Mannat arrive to see Vicky, posing as Leena and Arjun. Dev informs Vicky that his wife wishes to acquire an exotic animal as a birthday gift. Mannat reveals her interest in collecting exotic animals and shares her current collection with Vicky. She insists on viewing his collection first before considering a deal. As Vicky takes Mannat to show her his animals, Dev seizes the opportunity to copy data from Vicky’s laptop.
Mannat keeps Vicky occupied, allowing Dev to proceed with the data transfer. Vicky grows suspicious when he realizes Arjun is unaccounted for and goes to check on him. Dev gestures to Mannat for a five-minute delay, but Vicky insists on knowing Arjun’s whereabouts. Dev tells Vicky that Arjun fainted at the mention of dangerous animals. Vicky mentions he has many buyers and recently sold a crocodile. Dev expresses a desire to meet the crocodile’s buyer, but Vicky claims that information is confidential. Vicky asks for upfront payment for the animal they are interested in. Mannat becomes anxious, but Dev provides Vicky with the advance.
