The episode commences with Mangal observing Adit’s improper packing of zip lock bags. She directs him to pack them correctly, unaware that he was the one who originally introduced this packing method to her. Adit checks the time and, upon Mangal’s suggestion that he may leave, he agrees. As he departs, he mistakenly adjusts the drying machine to high heat instead of turning it off, inadvertently setting the stage for an impending disaster.
Mangal instructs the remaining workers to leave, indicating that she will handle the last few packets alone. At this moment, Kapil arrives with tea and expresses his opinion that Adit is an escapist. Mangal accepts the tea; however, upon tasting it, she detects an unusual smell emanating from the direction of the drying machine. Concerned, she approaches the machine area to investigate. Adit returns to retrieve his car keys, unaware of the imminent danger. Suddenly, a blast occurs, resulting in injuries to Mangal. Kapil acts quickly, carrying her in his arms. Upon realizing that his car is missing, he requests Adit’s assistance in transporting the unconscious Mangal to the hospital, to which Adit reluctantly agrees.
During the journey to the hospital, Adit reflects on the fact that the explosion was a consequence of his error. He receives multiple calls from Sowmya but chooses to ignore them, indicating he will address her concerns later. Meanwhile, Mangal regains consciousness in the hospital and is met with Kapil’s admonitions regarding her decision to work alone. Mangal asserts that she did not work alone, yet Kapil recalls witnessing her dismiss Adit and the other workers. Despite the tension, Mangal expresses gratitude to Kapil for his assistance and teases him about his aversion to germs. They share a moment of mutual understanding, while Adit observes from outside, feeling a sense of jealousy as he perceives Kapil taking credit for Mangal’s care.
Sowmya, growing increasingly suspicious of Adit, conducts an online search for information about his company but finds no results. This discovery leads her to believe that Adit is lying, similar to the manner in which he deceived Mangal in the past.
A nurse checks on Mangal, inquiring about her condition. Mangal confirms her well-being, but Kapil insists that the nurse recommend that Mangal rest at home to avoid complications. The nurse advises her of the risks of infection if she does not take proper care. After the nurse departs to retrieve Mangal’s prescription, Kapil receives a phone call and steps outside. Mangal, preoccupied with thoughts of a significant order they have received, attempts to rise but nearly loses her balance. Adit intervenes just in time to support her. The nurse returns and instructs Mangal not to exert pressure on her injured foot. When she asks for Mangal’s details, Adit introduces himself as her husband, prompting Mangal to clarify that they are divorced.
Kapil returns with news that Mangal’s injury is not severe and that she may be discharged soon. He also mentions the intention to investigate the cause of the explosion. Adit experiences anxiety at the prospect of Kapil uncovering the truth, which could jeopardize his position. Mangal suggests postponing the investigation until the following day, as Pratima will be expecting her, and Kapil consents.
Upon returning home, Adit is confronted by Sowmya regarding his late arrival and inquiries about his company. Adit fabricates a story, suggesting that Sowmya must have searched for the wrong name. She further questions him about his decision to turn off his phone and cancel their plans. Adit claims he was occupied in a meeting at his new job and urges her to cease her doubts. Sowmya, noticing a hair strand on Adit’s clothing, inquires about its origin. Adit deceitfully suggests it may belong to her. Sowmya’s intuition tells her that Adit is concealing something, prompting her to resolve to uncover the truth.
The following day, Kapil conducts inquiries with the workers regarding the CCTV footage. One worker reveals that certain areas of the new branch lack camera installations. Kapil reprimands them for their negligence, aware that such oversights could have serious ramifications. Adit, observing the situation, feels a sense of dread at the thought of Kapil discovering the truth regarding the explosion.
As the episode concludes, an atmosphere of tension prevails. Secrets loom large, and the delicate relationships among the characters are at risk of unraveling, leaving the audience in anticipation of future developments.
