The episode starts with Mangal telling Adit that Sowmya doesn’t have any evidence against her when she accused her, but she has evidence against Sowmya. Adit asks Sowmya to respond, but she refuses. Shanti criticizes Sowmya, who retorts that Shanti doesn’t need to act innocent. She accuses Shanti of failing to protect her own daughter’s life. When Shanti tries to slap her, Adit stops her. Shanti says Sowmya tried to kill Mangal by locking her in a cold storage room and blames her for Kusum’s condition. Adit demands Sowmya to explain. Sowmya fabricates a story, claiming her sonography frame broke when it fell due to the wind. She shows Adit the glass shards and pretends to be heartbroken over her child. Adit becomes emotional. Sowmya adds that while Mangal may dislike her, as a mother, she should understand her pain. Shanti calls it an act, but Sowmya manipulates Adit against Shanti.
Adit scolds Shanti and tells her to stay out of his life. He says she has no right to interfere and demands she apologize to Sowmya for hurting her. Mangal intervenes, questioning why Shanti should apologize when Sowmya accused her without evidence. Sowmya claims she doesn’t need an apology, just Adit’s support. Adit orders Shanti to leave, accusing her of staying uninvited. Shanti insists she had an invitation, asks Mangal to care for Kusum, and leaves. Adit criticizes Mangal for causing unnecessary drama, reminding her that his mother isn’t well and she should focus on that.
Later, Adit gives Kusum her medicine. Meanwhile, Sowmya is exercising in her room when she hears a glass break. Kusum accidentally drops the glass and fears someone will scold her. Adit reassures her and asks Sowmya to clean up. While cleaning, Mangal finds a tablet on the floor. Adit tells Kusum to sit on the sofa. Sowmya notices Kusum seems fine and wonders if she is taking her medicine. Mangal tells Adit about the tablet, and he decides to buy a new one. Sowmya worries, as she doesn’t have another tablet to replace it.
When Akshath turns on the fan, Kusum feels cold and warns that the fan is broken. Mangal throws the tablet into the dustbin. Kusum calls Mangal to sit with her, complaining that Mangal has been avoiding her since her return from Sri Lanka. Mangal assures her she is fine. Sowmya, seeing their bond, becomes determined to act. Kusum asks Mangal to bring her some juice. While Mangal is away, Sowmya retrieves the tablet from the dustbin.
Mangal notices Sowmya acting suspiciously. Unaware, Sowmya places a heater near Kusum. Kusum feels hot, stumbles, and turns on the fan. Akshath wonders why the fan was switched on, but Mangal intervenes in time to save him. Adit worries about Akshath, but Mangal explains it was Kusum who turned on the fan.
Elsewhere, Jia’s mother scolds her for being stubborn. She blames Jia for sending Karthik to jail and causing Gayathri’s death. Jia insists it was an accident, but her mother warns her to stay indoors until the court hearing. Meanwhile, Sanjana calls Jia but disappears before she can respond.
Later, Raghuveer takes Gayathri to an abandoned house. She complains it looks haunted and insists his home was better. Raghuveer sarcastically thanks her and forces her to stay there, manipulating her against Lakshmi. He orders her to clean the house for “entertainment,” leaving her frustrated. Meanwhile, Lakshmi visits Raghuveer’s house and is shocked to find Sanjana tied to a chair. She tries to help but is stopped by Raghuveer, who warns her that freeing Sanjana could ruin their plan. With only five days left, Lakshmi reluctantly leaves, feeling guilty.
Back at Jia’s house, she tells her mother that Sanjana sent her a message. Her mother advises her to call Sanjana, but Jia is too scared. Gayathri dreams of Lakshmi taking control of her house and resolves to return in the morning. Disguised, Gayathri sneaks into the house, while Jia arrives as well. Lakshmi cleverly hides Gayathri and pretends to be possessed by her ghost, scaring Jia. Lakshmi lies, claiming she killed Sanjana.
