The episode begins with Anirudh expressing to Jhanak that being beside her after a long time brings him joy. Jhanak mocks him for his behavior, to which he concedes he deserves that but asserts she doesn’t truly know him. He claims he isn’t a bad person and, despite his efforts, couldn’t make Arshi happy. He maintains that Arshi won’t seek a divorce. Jhanak responds that she was compelled to earn a degree and divorce him. Anirudh wonders if she would have stayed had he attempted to prevent it. Jhanak questions his intentions.
Anirudh feels she views him as a cheater without acknowledging his positive traits. Jhanak counters, recalling how he rescued her from Tejas and emphasizes her accusations stem from his past actions. Anirudh asks whether she still has feelings for him, but Jhanak states she no longer understands love. Anirudh insists they still harbor feelings for each other, but Jhanak dismisses this as just his perspective. He presses her to confess that she wishes to live with him, vowing to prove his bravery.
Jhanak challenges his lack of remorse, reminding him of their recent loss. She declares she won’t marry someone like him, asserting she has no reason to choose him. Anirudh demands to hear about her true feelings, but Jhanak pleads with him to drop the topic. While she conceals her affection for him, Anirudh silently acknowledges he has never stopped loving her.
Simultaneously, a doctor informs Lalon she visited the area for a seminar and wanted to check on Appu. Dadi asks Jhimli to prepare tea for the doctor, but Jhimli remains quiet; Kajol steps in instead. The doctor inquires about Appu’s condition, but Appu angrily tells her to leave, accusing her of being harmful. The doctor offers her chocolate, referring to Appu as a friend, which Appu accepts before leaving with Jhimli. The doctor notes that Jhimli may have undergone recent trauma. Appu returns with Jhimli, offering candies to the doctor. Before departing, the doctor recommends Jhimli take Appu to the clinic and consider therapy together.
Bipasha offers to help Anjana, who declines, explaining that Jhanak is already assisting her. Bipasha shares that she never worked before marriage and wishes for Anjana to teach her. Anjana reassures her everything will be alright. Jhanak inquires if Bipasha plans to leave after a week, to which Bipasha states she doesn’t want to leave but feels she has no option since Laal doesn’t want her.
Laal expresses to Shubh his disdain for staying in the house. Shubh advises him to concentrate on work. Tanuja blames Nandini and Bipasha for deceiving Laal. Shubh comments that Bipasha should have reached out to Tanuja. Laal demands breakfast from Anjana, but when Bipasha tries to assist, he refuses her help. Tanuja criticizes Bipasha, stating she doesn’t merit forgiveness. Shubh instructs Anjana to serve, but Jhanak steps in to offer help. Shubh rebuffs her, reminding everyone that Jhanak isn’t family and is only there as Arshi’s sister.
Bipasha acknowledges Laal’s frustrations but expresses her unwillingness to leave. Jhanak proclaims they shouldn’t impose decisions for their parents, urging Laal to treat Bipasha better. Laal warns Jhanak to stay out of his affairs, to which Jhanak asserts she will speak up when necessary. Shubh complains that he requested breakfast, not a lecture. Tanuja questions Jhanak’s support for Bipasha. Anjana defends Bipasha as Laal’s wife, asserting he has no right to cast her out. Jhanak encourages Bipasha to stand firm in her rights as a wife. Shubh cautions that Arshi might consider legal action against Jhanak concerning the baby. Jhanak states she believes the baby is alive and trusts the truth will emerge. Later, Shubh tells Arshi that Jhanak is attempting to win back Anirudh. Tanuja accuses Jhanak for their inability to see the baby. Arshi asks what actions she should take, and Shubh advises her to sue Jhanak. The episode
