The episode begins with Deepika struggling with a cough, which subsides when Chirag helps her. Concerned, Chirag questions why she hasn’t seen a doctor for her severe cough. Deepika responds, expressing her distrust of doctors. Chirag then accuses her of trying to reinsert herself into his life through Ragini. Deepika retorts that he needs to open his eyes and realize who is trying to disrupt his household, revealing she is only here to help Ragini. Chirag insists that Ragini doesn’t need her help. Just then, a peon opens the classroom door and playfully sings “Hum Tum Ek Kamre Mein Band Ho,” causing Chirag to storm out in anger, suggesting Deepika should seek treatment for her cough.
Deepika then begins searching for Chandu and Chandini. Meanwhile, Chirag notices Mishka soaked and asks what happened. Mishka explains that Ragini broke her promise and met Deepika with Chandu’s assistance. She recounts how she followed them and was pushed into the water by Chandu, leading to a confrontation where Chirag tells her to stop complaining about his daughter and let him handle the situation.
Later that night, the teacher introduces a game and splits the participants into teams. Ragini and Chandu are paired together as Team A, while Lavanya and Omkar urge Chirag and Deepika to join them. Chandu whispers to Lavanya that she won’t let Chirag know Deepika is her mother. The first round ends with the other team winning, prompting Chandu to encourage Chirag and Deepika to join in or risk losing. Eventually, they rally together, winning all subsequent rounds and the competition. Mishka storms off, consumed by jealousy.
Mishka enacts her plan and bribes someone to help her execute it. Chirag spots his parents dancing and imagines sharing a dance with Deepika to the song “Tumse Kiran Dhoop Ki.” Lavanya approaches him and suggests he reconcile with Deepika for the sake of a happy family. Conflicted, Chirag walks away, questioning why Deepika occupies his thoughts. Meanwhile, Mishka’s puppet, the peon, tempts Chandu and Ragini with ice cream, leading them toward a storeroom. Mishka then shoves them inside and locks the door, determined to thwart their plans to reunite their parents.
Inside the dark room, Ragini panics, but Chandu reassures her that someone will come to help. Meanwhile, Deepika and Chirag search for Chandu and Ragini. Mishka falsely accuses Deepika of having made Ragini disappear, and Chirag, as usual, falls for her deception, warning Deepika that he won’t spare her if anything happens to his daughter. Omkar steps in, telling Chirag to watch his words, and Deepika emphasizes that Chirag tends to lose control under Mishka’s influence. She asserts that if Ragini is his daughter, then Chandu is equally important. With Baldev, she continues her search for the kids while Lavanya challenges Chirag about his irrational behavior.
Neelima checks in on Jahnvi, urging her to rest, but Prithvi asks her not to misjudge his family, assuring her they also care for her child. After Neelima leaves, Deepika hears Chandu’s voice and discovers the children inside the locked room. She finds Ragini unconscious and manages to get them out. The rest of the group gathers as Deepika explains that Chandu mentioned someone locked them in. Mishka, growing frustrated, contemplates how Deepika always seems to arrive just in time. Ragini then notices Mishka’s ring and remembers being pushed inside the room, prompting Chirag to again accuse Deepika. Lavanya, irritated, tells him to stop the accusations.
Deepika insists they get out and go home, while Baldev offers to call for an auto. Lavanya offers to drive Deepika home and tells Chirag to fetch his car, leaving Mishka seething as her plan falls apart.
**Precap:** The teacher brings an unconscious Chandu to Chirag and informs him that she found her in the corridor. Chirag, shocked, asks the teacher to call Chandu’s mother, only to discover that Deepika is Chandu’s mother and Ragini’s Savri mamma.
