The episode begins with Vayu approaching Vaiju, complaining of a headache. Concerned, Vaiju asks why he is alone and where his father is. Vayu explains that his father told him not to visit her, which is why he ran away. Meanwhile, Ranvijay is searching for Vayu and drives to Vaiju’s home, where he finds his son in her lap. Ranvijay quickly checks on Vayu and inquires why he left without informing anyone. Vayu responds that only “fighter aunty” can help him, but Ranvijay had prevented him from coming. He expresses that he waited for Ranvijay yesterday, but he didn’t show up.
Apologizing, Ranvijay acknowledges he should have stopped for Vayu. He emphasizes that sometimes taking a moment to pause can solve problems, and a flashback reveals Vaiju leaving his house. She advises Vayu to apologize to his father for venturing out alone at night. Vayu complies, saying sorry to Ranvijay, while Ranvijay reciprocates his apology to Vaani. Vaani reassures that she will forgive him, quoting her mother’s wisdom that true remorse deserves forgiveness, while Vayu adds that his father says it’s best to sleep at night.
Later, Ranvijay sits outside Vaiju’s home as she brings him tea, letting him know that the kids are asleep. As they share the moment, the song “Abhi Mujh Mein Kahin” plays softly in the background. Ranvijay remarks that even after seven years, the tea tastes the same. Vaiju replies that while the taste may remain constant, the maker has changed. He recalls the day of the accident when he saw the dead body and her mangalsutra, describing how he felt as though he died a little that day. He confesses he has never found peace since and has often prayed for death to reunite him with her.
Ranvijay then asks if, in the past seven years, she has never thought of him. Vaiju interrupts, stating she had no time to ponder over him. He adds that Vayu is also his son and no one can replace him, even as she named her daughter Vaani. Ranvijay inquires about Vaani’s father, and Vaiju responds that she is both mother and father to Vaani. She questions why she should call the man responsible for her son’s death. Ranvijay declares that today, he accepts she is dead to him. Vaiju acknowledges their rare agreement after so many years.
The next morning, as Ranvijay prepares to leave with Vayu, they are ambushed by masked goons. In the chaos, the goons kidnap Vaani. Ranvijay struggles to regain his composure.
Niranjan then contacts Vaiju, mocking her earlier threat that she would take his eyes if he harmed her daughters. He taunts her, eager to see what she will do to save Vaani and gives her the location of the confrontation.
Arriving at the location on a bike, Ranvijay and Vaiju discover Niranjan waiting with his goons. Without hesitation, Vaiju launches herself into battle against the assailants. Just in time, Ranvijay intervenes to stop a goon from attacking her from behind. Vaiju demands to know Vaani’s whereabouts. Niranjan smirks and asks Ranvijay if he is her new lover or the father of her child.
