The episode begins with Vikrant attempting to convince Burman, who walks away without heeding his pleas. Meanwhile, Shruthi tries to call Mannat, but her calls go unanswered, leading her to worry that Mannat might be in trouble. Harneet reassures her, saying it’s an important day for Mannat, and she might be preoccupied with work. Harneet reminds Shruthi that a food inspector is scheduled to visit Mezbani for clearance, and Mannat will reach out when she’s available.
Later, Mannat, in an intoxicated state, bumps into Burman and declares that she won’t forgive her. Noticing Burman’s tension, Mannat suggests ways to lighten her mood—either by dancing or drinking hot tea. Vikrant intervenes, separating Mannat from Burman and chastising the driver for not taking her home yet. Mannat teasingly plays with Vikrant, saying she doesn’t like the pain in his eyes and wants to bring him happiness. Aishwarya comments on Mannat’s behavior, and Burman storms off in anger. Vikrant wonders why Burman doesn’t want to contact Mannat, while Aishwarya thinks it might be a farewell for her.
Meanwhile, Mallika asks the staff what’s going on. She struggles to believe that Mannat is drunk. The chef informs her that Mannat has not only jeopardized her job but has also affected theirs. Aishwarya and Vikrant arrive, and Aishwarya scolds Mallika and Vikrant for giving Mannat another chance. She questions whether they rejected Mannat due to her lower social status, accusing them of allowing Mannat to take advantage of their support.
Aishwarya then shares her plans for a restaurant in Singapore, suggesting they start there. Vikrant counters that it’s his dream to open a restaurant in India and insists he won’t give up on that dream. Aishwarya tells her assistant that she won’t allow Vikrant to fulfill his dream because their ambitions are incompatible, hinting that she intends to shatter his vision.
Mannat stubbornly refuses to leave without apologizing to Vikrant, continuing to ramble incoherently. Mallika steps in to protect her.
Meanwhile, Shruthi worries about Mannat not answering her calls and tries again. During a call, Mannat unintentionally reveals everything that has happened. Shruthi realizes that Mannat has shared her troubles without picking up her call, confirming that something must have gone wrong. Mallika splashes water on Mannat to bring her back to her senses.
Puneet complains about Mannat to Vikrant, while Aishwarya tells him that the Singapore team is still interested in starting a business with them and suggests they move there. Puneet notes Aishwarya’s unusual silence amidst the chaos, suspecting she is up to something. He asserts that while he may not like Mannat, she isn’t one to drink, leading him to believe Aishwarya might be behind this situation.
Later, Mannat confides in Mallika that she has never touched alcohol before. Mallika reassures her that she already knew this. Heartbroken, Mannat shares her grief, fearing that Vikrant won’t want to look at her again. Mallika urges her to apologize to Vikrant, emphasizing that he is innocent in this matter.
Meanwhile, Aishwarya reveals a secret to her assistant. Puneet overhears the conversation and questions her about wasting money on Mannat. Aishwarya responds that the Singapore team is eager to partner with them and is ready to take responsibility, with Vikrant being the head chef of that restaurant.
Later, Mannat finally meets Vikrant.
