The episode starts with Lakshmi wondering where she will find another job, and she doesn’t even have money to take an auto. Karan comes by and places an umbrella over her. Lakshmi sees him and apologizes for misunderstanding him last night and realizing that he had saved her. He asks her to come inside the company. Lakshmi says she can’t because she was fired and warns him about Barkha. He tells her that Barkha is only calling her and then leaves. Lakshmi wonders why he didn’t say “Barkha ma’am.”
Lakshmi meets Barkha. Barkha says, “I’m giving you a second chance because you are hardworking, but don’t repeat your mistake and mess up with the boss. Go and apologize to him.” Lakshmi says she hasn’t even met him. Barkha tells her to stop talking nonsense and sends her to Karan’s room.
Lakshmi goes to the boss’s room. Karan is there. Lakshmi asks, “Why are you here? Are you the boss’s assistant? Did you complain about me, that’s why I was fired?” She adds that he doesn’t know how tough it is to survive in this city without a job. Karan smiles and tells her to stop talking nonsense. He then reveals that he is the boss. Lakshmi is shocked and apologizes. Karan tells her not to repeat her mistake, as KK doesn’t like giving second chances, and leaves. Lakshmi leaves the cabin, scolding herself for messing up with the boss.
Later, the workers ask Lakshmi what she bought for lunch. Lakshmi says, “Rajma chawal,” and gives it to everyone. While serving Shankar, some curry falls on Karan’s shirt. Karan scolds her for spoiling his designer shirt and throws her spectacles. He says, “I gave you a final warning, but you are a mess,” and leaves. The workers see all of Lakshmi’s food has fallen, and they ask her to eat with them.
Later, Barkha comes to Lakshmi and says, “I was devastated to learn your lunch fell, so I got you dal.” She pours it on Lakshmi intentionally. Gayabhi says, “Hisaab barabar.” Barkha taunts, “Lakshmi, you don’t have the right to compete with me.” Lakshmi replies, “My food fell on Karan by mistake, but you did wrong by wasting good food.” Barkha warns Lakshmi not to trouble her or her brother, or she will be fired and sent back to her village. Swetha comments that both the brother and sister are the same.
Later, Swetha asks Lakshmi to get ready for the office party. Lakshmi refuses. Swetha insists she come and wear her dress. Lakshmi says she will attend in her normal dress. Swetha gives her the repaired spectacles, and Lakshmi thanks her.
At the party, a client asks Barkha why she invited her workers. Barkha scolds Lakshmi for wearing the “worst dress” to a fashion company party. Lakshmi stands up for herself, saying that one cannot judge others by their looks. Barkha tries to tear Lakshmi’s dress to make it look modern, but Lakshmi stops her and rebukes her. She says, “My work is my identity, and I will wear what I like. You go and enjoy your party.” Friends take Barkha away. Swetha tells Lakshmi that Barkha is insane. Lakshmi says they just came to show her face, and she’s leaving.
At that moment, a Karthik song starts playing. Everyone starts talking about Karthik. Lakshmi has a panic attack, and in her dizziness, she falls, breaking the music speaker. Barkha says, “It’s Karan’s favorite, why did you spoil it?” Lakshmi says she will fix it and says she didn’t do it intentionally. Gayabhi comments that Karan will definitely fire Lakshmi today.
