The episode begins with a tense moment when Khushi slaps her younger sister, Sweety, after learning about her careless actions. Sweety had lied to their mother, Mamta, and gone out with three boys, thinking it was an innocent outing. Things took a dark turn when the boys tried to take advantage of her.
Shocked and angry, Khushi scolds Sweety for risking her safety. However, Mamta misunderstands her concern and immediately sides with Sweety. When Sweety returns home, she twists the story, lying to Mamta that Khushi slapped her out of jealousy.
Furious, Mamta humiliates Khushi and accuses her of competing with her sister. She refuses to believe Sweety could be at fault and warns Khushi to stay away from her. Deeply hurt, Khushi feels unappreciated despite her good intentions.
Their father, Rajkumar, witnesses the growing conflict and worries about Khushi. He suggests that she move to a hostel to focus on her studies and career. But Khushi refuses, wanting to remain close to her father despite the daily humiliation she faces.
Meanwhile, Krishna feels guilty for the pain Khushi has endured because of him. Struggling financially, he plans to misuse a police uniform to make money but fears Khushi might report him to the authorities.
At another house, Baldev calls his lawyer, sparking excitement among his children, who assume he’s preparing to divide his wealth.
Back home, Sweety again mocks Khushi for interfering in her life. Khushi advises her to earn respectably instead of seeking shortcuts, but Sweety ignores her. Mamta once more insults Khushi and tells her to keep her distance.
Later, Khushi visits the municipal chairman, pleading for help regarding a damaged saree that belongs to a poor woman. Around the same time, Krishna is offered money to falsely accuse Baldev but refuses to betray an innocent man.
In a chance encounter, Khushi confronts Krishna and demands one lakh as compensation. Krishna, filled with guilt and helplessness, admits that he has nothing left to offer her.
