Vihaan is lost in thought, reflecting on the mysterious woman who seems to know him. Gauri notices his worry and approaches to comfort him. Harsh and Arjun soon arrive with tea, and the three brothers settle down to read a book together. Vihaan shares a tale about the Tamas Mani, a witch who lost her face and turned into smoke. Gauri, intrigued, learns that this powerful witch even defeated their brother. She’s stunned to discover the depth of Vihaan’s powers, but Harsh quickly changes the subject.
Trying to lighten the mood, Gauri serves tea—though she overfills the cups and adds too much sugar. In her clumsy attempt at humor, she spills tea on Vihaan’s book, irritating him. Despite the mess, Arjun urges Vihaan to try the overly sweet tea, and the brothers burst into laughter at his reaction. Vihaan finally excuses himself to take a bath, leaving the tea untouched. Gauri offers it to Harsh and Arjun, but they make excuses and walk away.
Elsewhere, Veena expresses regret about Vihaan’s marriage to Gauri, believing it to be a mistake. Baa defends Gauri, saying she saved Vihaan, though Veena dismisses it as mere coincidence. Suddenly, Veena spots a group of crows entering the house and rushes to investigate.
After his bath, Vihaan returns to his room in just a towel, unaware that Gauri is watching. She becomes shy and stammers about bringing him tea. As she steps forward, she slips, accidentally pulling off Vihaan’s towel. Shocked and flustered, Gauri screams and runs out, but later laughs to herself—half from embarrassment and half from the realization that Vihaan’s wounds have mysteriously disappeared.
Veena enters the room and finds a mirror surrounded by smoke. Meanwhile, Gauri barges back into Vihaan’s room while he’s getting dressed. Vihaan demands to know why she’s there, and Gauri replies that she’s searching for “Changu-Pangu,” prompting Vihaan to scold her for using such odd words. She then questions him about his fading wounds. When she attempts to inspect them, Vihaan stops her, accusing her of wanting money and reminding her they aren’t truly husband and wife. Hurt, Gauri grabs her pillow and blanket, choosing to sleep elsewhere. Harsh and Arjun witness her departure.
In another room, Veena confronts the smoky presence and demands its identity. The smoke responds cryptically, claiming to know her well. When Veena accuses it of lying about being Kamini, the smoke tells her to leave—warning that her son is suffering.
Gauri, now upset, sits alone on the sofa. Vihaan tells his brothers that he was harsh to Gauri because she wanted to see his marks. Harsh advises him not to be rude—especially since Gauri is crying. Vihaan rethinks his behavior and approaches Gauri, asking her to return to their room. She refuses, reminding him again that she’s not his wife. Vihaan responds that she’ll be scared if she sleeps alone.
Back in the room, Veena continues her confrontation with the smoke, still skeptical of its identity. The smoke urges her to leave and worry about her son. Later that night, as Gauri lies down, she hears a strange sound. The jhoomar (chandelier) above her begins to move ominously.
The episode ends.
