The episode begins with Vihaan using his magic in an attempt to stop the jhoomar from moving, while Gauri slowly drifts off to sleep. But Vihaan isn’t done yet—he casts another spell to spook her, hoping it’ll drive her back to the bedroom. His plan works, as Gauri wakes up startled from the sofa and runs straight into the room, bumping into Vihaan in the process. Without thinking, she clutches him tightly in fear and tells him that she saw someone lurking around the house.
Vihaan calmly asks her to come into the room, and as she follows him, she accidentally rips his shirt. Noticing he’s wearing a t-shirt underneath, Gauri curiously asks why. Watching from a distance, Harsh and Arjun silently observe the scene unfolding.
Gauri, confused and desperate for answers, starts pressing Vihaan. Meanwhile, Arjun and Harsh cleverly distract Dadi to avoid raising suspicions. At the same time, Veena is seen talking to a dark shadowy figure. Suddenly, Vihaan suffers another panic attack. The shadow warns Veena that her son is in danger—and questions why she’s ignoring it. As Vihaan cries out for help, Gauri calls everyone over in panic.
Veena rushes to her son’s side, only to realize that Kamini—the evil force—has returned to harm him. She pleads with the shadow to leave her son alone. Harsh brings water for Vihaan, and both he and Arjun help him to the sofa. When they try to inform Veena, Vihaan stops them, not wanting anyone else to know.
Arjun searches for Vihaan’s protective bracelet, while Gauri tends to him. To everyone’s horror, black veins begin to appear on Vihaan’s body. Meanwhile, Harsh goes to retrieve the bracelet from Pratham Vanshi’s hut, only to find the entire area engulfed in flames. There, he unexpectedly meets Sia.
Back home, Gauri finds that Vihaan has suddenly disappeared. She questions Arjun, who lies and says Vihaan has been taken to the hospital with Harsh. But Gauri isn’t convinced. She searches the house and even checks the ceiling, but Vihaan—cleverly hiding in the hall—manages to stay out of sight. Just as he’s about to sneak away, Gauri senses something and notices a crack in the pillar, growing more suspicious.
At the same time, Harsh questions Sia’s presence at the burnt-down hut. She tells him that Pratham Vanshi was attacked and cryptically advises him to follow the crow, promising to explain everything later.
Arjun, meanwhile, takes Vihaan to the storeroom, hoping to keep him safe and hidden. He urges Vihaan to finally tell Gauri the truth. But Vihaan refuses, convinced that Gauri will leave him if she finds out he’s a Davansh—a monster. Arjun tries to reassure him, but Vihaan insists on keeping the truth hidden.
Gauri, sensing something’s off, confronts Arjun and demands he stay out of her way. She storms toward the storeroom, determined to get answers. Vihaan tries to stop her. She pleads with him to open the door, saying she wants to understand his pain and be by his side. But Vihaan, overwhelmed by fear and guilt, locks the door and refuses to let her in.
On one side of the door, Gauri sobs, desperate for the truth. On the other side, Vihaan quietly breaks down, his heart aching just as much as hers.
