The episode opens with a sense of unease as Aruna, sensing something is amiss, confronts Manu. “Something feels fishy,” he states, pressing Manu for details about the situation. Manu, caught off guard, feigns ignorance, claiming he doesn’t know anything. Aruna, undeterred, inquires whether Manu has delivered the apology card to Megha. In a bid to maintain his deception, Manu lies, stating that he did give the card to Megha and that she liked it.
Aruna continues to probe, asking if Megha assisted him with his homework. Manu, again lying, claims that Megha helped him write an essay about family. However, Aruna’s concern deepens as he presses Manu to tell the truth, revealing that Megha is currently missing. Realizing the gravity of the situation, Manu suddenly recognizes that Aruna is Angel Papa, a figure of authority and protection.
In a dramatic reveal, Aruna removes his fake makeup, exposing his true identity as Angel Papa. He urgently requests Manu to disclose Megha’s whereabouts, warning him that Manoj intends to kill her. Manu, clinging to hope, insists that Manoj promised not to harm Megha. Aruna, however, counters that Manoj is a liar, revealing the shocking truth: Megha is Manu’s biological mother, and Manoj is a dangerous man. Overwhelmed by this revelation, Manu pleads with Aruna to save Megha at any cost, desperation etched on his face.
Meanwhile, in a separate location, Megha regains consciousness, her mind racing with betrayal. She confronts Alka, questioning how she could betray her. Alka, defensive, counters that her actions stem from love for Manu, asserting that Megha would have done the same if their roles were reversed. Megha, filled with righteous indignation, argues that there is a significant difference between their approaches to motherhood. Alka declares her intention to stay with Manu in Bandipur, insisting that Megha must leave and go far away.
Back with Manoj, his impatience grows as he expresses his boredom. He orders his men to capture Megha, and they quickly comply. Manoj’s sinister intentions become clear as he instructs them to bury Megha alive. However, he adds a twisted sense of mercy, stating that since Megha is Manu’s mother, she should be given an easier death. As he prepares to inject her with a lethal substance, Manu bursts onto the scene, stopping Manoj in his tracks.
“Leave Megha alone!” Manu shouts, his voice filled with determination. He warns Manoj to let her go, standing his ground despite the overwhelming danger. Alka, shocked by Manu’s defiance, scolds him for speaking to Manoj in such a manner. Manu, undeterred, reminds Manoj that he has broken his promise, demanding that he release Megha.
In a tense standoff, Manoj challenges Manu, asking if he will attempt to stop him. Fueled by adrenaline, Manu grabs a nearby cricket bat and strikes Manoj, catching him off guard. Aruna, witnessing the chaos, instructs Manoj’s men to intervene and save their boss. In a moment of emotional release, Manu rushes to Megha, enveloping her in a protective hug. “Are you okay, Maa?” he asks, concern etched on his face. Megha reassures him, saying that as long as her daughter is with her, she is fine. Manu apologizes to her, expressing his desire to be like Megha and not like Manoj.
Manoj, observing the exchange, asserts that he never gave Manu the option to choose his path. Aruna steps forward, admonishing Manoj for his actions. In a surprising twist, Manoj declares that he is so pleased with the day’s events that he won’t punish Megha or Manu. Just as Alka is about to voice her thoughts, Manoj cuts her off, leaving the scene with an unsettling air of triumph.
Later, Alka reflects on the situation, troubled by Manoj’s wrongdoings. She decides to call Manu to bring him food, but Megha interjects, stating that she will feed her child. Megha asserts that Alka has no rights over Manu, igniting a fiery confrontation. Alka retorts, insisting that Megha has no authority to dictate her relationship with her son. In a moment of raw honesty, Megha claims that Manoj, despite his flaws, is better than Alka because he confronts issues directly. She expresses her disappointment in Alka, warning her to stay away from Manu.
Alka, feeling the weight of Megha’s accusations, challenges her to consider the consequences of Manoj discovering that Arjun is still alive. The episode concludes with a lingering tension, leaving viewers anxious about the unfolding drama and the fates of the characters involved.
