The episode begins with Ragini excitedly sharing with her grandparents that she has met her SM (special mentor) and was about to tell her about her mother. Chirag interrupts, revealing that there has been a misunderstanding: neither Deepika nor her mother is his wife. Ragini, feeling hurt, asks Chirag why he dislikes her mother. He responds that he loves Ragini deeply but has had to leave her mother behind. Chirag encourages Ragini to forget her SM and make new friends, and although she agrees, she insists she can’t part ways with her SM.
Curious, Ragini expresses her desire to hear the story of Chirag and SM. As he reminisces about his time with Deepika, Ragini turns to Lavanya for answers about her father’s feelings. Lavanya reassures her that the truth will soon come out and believes that one day, Chirag and SM will be reunited. Omkar, however, questions Lavanya about her optimism, wondering why she promised Ragini given their current struggles. Lavanya remains hopeful, insisting that today’s meeting between Chirag and Deepika was a step in the right direction.
Chirag receives a courier containing his passport and excitedly shows it to everyone. However, Lavanya snatches it from him and burns the passport right before his eyes, urging him to reconsider his decision.
Meanwhile, Baldev confronts Deepika about her absence from school. Deepika admits that she feels anxious about Ragini and fears that Chirag will be upset if he sees her getting too close. She shares that she received an order from a boy who wishes to propose to his girlfriend and nostalgically recalls how Chirag used to bring her flowers. As Deepika dreams of receiving flowers from Chirag, her reverie is shattered when the thorns from the roses prick her.
Back at home, concern grows as everyone searches for Ragini, who is missing. Prithvi informs Chirag that he checked the CCTV footage and saw Ragini leaving alone. Janvi throws sarcastic remarks, suggesting that it has become Ragini’s habit to wander off by herself.
Ragini, determined to find her SM, ventures out alone and asks a passerby for directions to Janta Colony. Suddenly, she is surrounded by goons who attempt to kidnap her at a fair. In a moment of quick thinking, Ragini throws mud in their eyes and makes an escape, managing to reach her SM’s house.
Meanwhile, Omkar announces his intention to search for Ragini in the garden. Janvi suspects that Deepika might have taken Ragini away, leading Lavanya to admonish her for her jealousy. Lavanya believes Ragini may have gone to see her SM.
At a nearby café, Ragini asks a man for water, but when she realizes she has no money, the man offers her a deal—clean the utensils in exchange for her meal. Just then, Baldev appears to rescue her, informing Ragini that Chandu lives nearby. This news prompts her to dash off to see Deepika.
Chirag, worried about Ragini, goes to the school to look for her and learns from Chandni that SM is absent that day. He rushes to check on Ragini at SM’s house.
Deepika grows increasingly anxious about Ragini’s absence and sends Baldev off to fulfill a delivery order. Lavanya, attempting to call Deepika, finds that Baldev isn’t answering. Chandni comforts Lavanya, assuring her that nothing will happen to Ragini and speculates that Ragini might have gone to see SM before heading to London.
As the episode comes to a close, Deepika’s worry for Ragini lingers heavily in the air.
**Precap:** Chirag learns about Chandni’s mother and the implications behind it.
