The episode opens with Gauri sensing that someone is following them. She quickly realizes that Batty and Sunheri are on their trail. In a moment of urgency, Gauri informs her grandmother, Nani, that she will first retrieve her phone before they make their escape. To evade their pursuers, they decide to hide in a nearby temple, believing that the Dayan won’t be able to detect their presence there.
Once inside the temple, Gauri and Nani take a moment to catch their breath. However, Sunheri attempts to follow them into the temple, only to experience severe burning sensations in her legs, causing her to retreat in pain. Batty tries to encourage Sunheri to press on, but she hesitates, recalling the last encounter with Golu, where he had taught them a harsh lesson. In a moment of desperation, Sunheri decides to possess a man, hoping to use him to bring Golu to her.
In the temple, Gauri kneels before the idol and confesses her turmoil to God. She reveals her guilt about deceiving Vihaan, who is unaware that Golu is his son. Gauri expresses her fears that if Vihaan ever discovers the truth, he will never forgive her. She pleads with God, wishing she could be free from her responsibilities, stating that if she were not Rishwa, she could live openly with Vihaan. As she prays, she senses that someone is approaching to take Golu.
Meanwhile, Vihaan, Arjun, and Harsh are on their way, engaged in a conversation about Gauri. Harsh tries to convince Vihaan to let go of the memories that haunt him, urging him to start anew. However, Vihaan is adamant, revealing that he feels responsible for Gauri’s death, having metaphorically “killed” her with his own hands. He confesses that he cannot imagine life without her and that he is only surviving because of the sacrifice she made for him.
Arjun interjects, noting that he has developed a bond with Golu, which Vihaan dismisses as a normal reaction. However, Arjun insists that Golu is not just any child; he has a special connection to Gauri. To illustrate his point, Arjun shows Vihaan a picture of Golu from Gauri’s phone. Vihaan, however, chastises Arjun for touching someone else’s mobile, reflecting his deep-seated respect for privacy amid his emotional turmoil.
Back in the temple, Nani is narrating a story to Golu, who listens quietly, unaware of the danger approaching him. The man intent on kidnapping Golu draws closer, heightening the tension in the air.
As Arjun continues to show the picture of Golu, Vihaan takes the phone back, and Gauri, noticing that Vihaan has returned, instructs Nani to keep a close watch on Golu while she goes to retrieve her phone. Golu, sensing the imminent danger, rings the temple bell, startling the man who is getting closer. Batty and Sunheri’s plans begin to unravel as Batty transforms into a bat, soaring into the air. Meanwhile, Nani remains engrossed in her storytelling, oblivious to the chaos unfolding around her.
Gauri approaches Vihaan, her face covered with a veil, tears streaming down her cheeks. Harsh urges Vihaan to return the phone to Gauri, and he complies, telling her to keep it safe. Arjun, eager to see Golu, asks Gauri where he is. Harsh pleads with Gauri to allow his brother to meet Golu, emphasizing that Golu brings joy to Vihaan, who hasn’t smiled in three years. Gauri reluctantly responds that Golu is sitting beside Nani, listening to her story.
Just then, Golu descends the stairs, and Gauri thanks Vihaan for returning her phone. However, she quickly tells Vihaan not to meet her son, as Golu approaches, eager to interact with Vihaan. Gauri feels a pang of sadness, torn between her desire to protect Golu and her longing for Vihaan to be part of his life. At that moment, Batty seizes the opportunity and snatches Golu away, causing Nani to cry out in distress for Gauri. The mention of Gauri’s name catches Vihaan’s attention, prompting him to turn back, sensing that something is amiss.
