The episode opens with Suman confronting Teerth, asserting that he is wrong, and proudly announcing her identity as Suman Indori from the Indore Sammaan party. Just then, a woman approaches and nearly collapses, prompting Suman to catch her. The woman expresses her joy at Suman’s return, asking why she had left. Suman replies that when their own abandon them, they must find solace among strangers. She vows to bring change and warns everyone to be cautious now that she is back. The crowd rallies behind her, proclaiming her return, while Teerth looks on with a smile. Devika remarks that the people haven’t forgotten Suman. Suman speaks passionately about the city that has given her so much, promising to return the tears, pain, and betrayal she once experienced.
She notes that while she was away for five years, only six months remain until the elections. Suman confidently claims that in just five minutes, they will forget the past and shower her with love. She declares her intent to “make chaat” of the opposition and asks if the people will support her with their votes to become the new Chief Minister.
The crowd eagerly agrees, and Suman urges them to dispose of their votes for the opposition, stating she has returned to clean up the mess. Teerth, wanting to confront her, hesitates as Devika reminds him of her threat to harm him and his family if he approaches Suman. He acknowledges her words and walks away. Devika scoffs at Suman’s return, dismissing her as “trash.”
Teerth drinks wine, brooding over Suman’s unexpected return, when Kritika informs Devika that Suman’s comeback has gone viral on social media. Devika rolls her eyes, noting that everything seems to be trending. Kritika mentions Teerth’s infatuation, but Devika retorts that if he truly loves her, he needs to wear more rings to win her back.
Teerth runs after Suman’s car, desperate to reach her. As Suman watches him chase her vehicle, she tells her son, Rishi, to rest his head on her lap. Teerth falls to the ground, and Suman’s heart aches at the sight. She reminds herself to remain strong and not to break for someone who has hurt her. Meanwhile, Teerth expresses gratitude to God for bringing her back.
Rishi asks Suman if they can go to Sarafa to enjoy aloo chaat, which she agrees to, reminding him to be wary of strangers. Rishi wonders why they should be cautious if they’re here. Suman instructs him to check if his friend is with him, and Rishi sheepishly admits he forgot and pulls out his asthma pump instead. Suman contemplates her lack of respect for the people involved with this matter.
In another scene, Chandrakant laments that Devika has taken food from his hand, confused about why he’s crying. He then asks Gitanjali why she is upset, to which she replies she was simply laughing at Akhil’s joke. As he walks away, Guru arrives, and Akhil urges him to address Devika’s harsh treatment of their parents. Gitanjali echoes the sentiment, but Guru is hesitant, fearing that if he confronts her, she may leave him.
Teerth attempts to call Suman, but her number is unreachable. He reassures himself that at least she has returned. Suman tells Rishi to wait in the car while she steps out, instructing the driver to keep an eye on him. Suman encounters Reva, who thanks Guru for teaching her how to communicate with elderly parents.
Chandrakant comes over, requesting breakfast before heading to the shop, but Reva insists he stay, claiming to have brought food for them. Akhil questions her motive, but she explains that their mother would thwart any of his attempts to help. Reva takes pride in using her pocket money for good deeds, urging Akhil to eat before Suman arrives and scolds him. Gitanjali says Suman won’t return, but Reva admits she misses her deeply, leading to tears.
Devika is on the phone, expressing frustration over her failed attempts to stop the auction of a house. She insists her family has put down 20 lakhs to prevent the sale, claiming she intends to purchase it for her political party. He informs her that he must follow orders. Devika asserts her authority, stating she is the sister-in-law of the soon-to-be Chief Minister and wants the house beside hers for her party’s needs.
As the bidding commences at 6 crores, Suman enters and places a bid of 6.5 crores, shocking Devika, who wonders how Suman acquired so much money. Determined to thwart her opponent, Devika plots to undermine Suman as the tension escalates.
The episode ends with Suman confidently declaring that a new Mahabharat is about to begin in this era.
