The episode opens with Rakesh arriving at Parvati’s house, visibly intoxicated. Parvati immediately senses his unstable state and tells him it’s not a good time to talk. Rakesh confronts her about a comment she allegedly made to Neeti, claiming he was just drunkenly rambling. Parvati denies saying anything about him and accuses her of trying to manipulate him against her. Rakesh, confident in his own judgment, asserts that no one can deceive him. He acknowledges Neeti’s crafty nature and disparages her, claiming she is insignificant—like a mosquito that he could easily swat away.
In a moment of candor, Rakesh admits to Parvati that he orchestrated a plan by sending Bavya’s father to Manali to prevent him from revealing the truth. He also brought Mamta in to provide a false testimony. When Parvati questions the innocence of her mother, Rakesh insists that he planned everything, declaring her mother is indeed innocent, while asserting Neeti only knows how to hatch cheap schemes. He presses Parvati to admit her true identity as Parineet, to which she reacts defiantly, threatening to expose his actions to the police. Rakesh, angered, chases after her.
Meanwhile, Sanju finds himself preoccupied with thoughts of Parvati, causing Neeti to feel jealous as she notices his distraction. When Sanju acknowledges her presence and tries to steer the conversation, Neeti becomes increasingly anxious.
Rakesh continues searching for Parvati, resorting to flirting with her. Parvati, determined to teach him a lesson, asserts her identity as Parvati and not Parineet. Rakesh insists that she has already admitted to being Parineet, attributing his claims to his intoxication. As tensions escalate, he warns her that if she doesn’t confess willingly, he will force her. Parvati stands her ground, pleading with him to stay away, while Rakesh insists that there’s a connection between them that can’t be ignored. He taunts her, implying that no one is around to protect her, asserting that he knows her better than anyone.
As Sanju reflects on a feeling that Parvati may be in trouble, Neeti feels her own jealousy flare as she realizes his thoughts are not with her. She fears he might seek out Parvati. At this moment, Rakesh escalates the confrontation, threatening Parvati further. He belittles Sanju’s love for her, claiming it pales in comparison to his own. Parvati refuses, demanding he keep his distance. Rakesh insists she cannot escape from him that day; in her desperation, Parvati grabs a vase to defend herself. He playfully admonishes her for always trying to hit him and declares he would do anything for her.
As she shoves him and tries to flee, Rakesh corners her in a room, escalating both the tension and the flirtation. Parvati manages to grab a rod for protection, envisioning him in the form of Maa Durga, which frightens Rakesh into pleading for help. In a twist of fate, Shekhar arrives just in time to intervene. Parvati vows not to let Rakesh go easily, prompting him to retreat.
Meanwhile, Sanju confides in Neeti about his instincts concerning Parvati. She attempts to prevent him from pursuing her, but he becomes aware of Rakesh’s car parked outside, increasing his concern for Parvati. Neeti, feeling threatened by Parvati’s influence over Sanju, remains conflicted about how to maintain his attention. The situation reaches a climax as local authorities arrive at Rakesh’s house, there to arrest him, setting the stage for the next developments.
The episode concludes, leaving viewers eager to see how the unfolding drama will affect all involved.
