Episode 5 of "Saare Jahan Se Accha" commences with a vivid flashback, transporting us four years into the past. Vishnu arrives at a detention cell in Pathankot, India, where he encounters Sukhbir, a youthful inmate detained over unpaid debts. Sukhbir, eyes wide with desperation, finds himself at a crossroads. Vishnu presents him with an ultimatum: five years of service as a RAW covert agent in exchange for debt forgiveness. Reluctantly, Sukhbir nods in agreement, severing ties with his sole kindred, his loving mother, and embarks on a new life shrouded in secrecy.
Fast forward to the present, the narrative pivots as Vishnu reconvenes with Sukhbir, now Rafiq, a broker disguised amidst the bustling Karachi Stock Exchange in Pakistan. The encounter unfolds shortly after Rafiq's harrowing act of terminating Rizwan. Burdened with guilt over terminating Naseem's sole surviving family member, Rafiq implores Vishnu to swear an oath, vowing to shield Naseem from any entanglements with RAW or ISI.
Rafiq subsequently steps into Naseem's abode, his heart heavy, striving to offer solace amidst her grief. Murtaza arrives, his countenance a storm of rage and confusion, believing Rizwan to be a RAW spy who betrayed Pakistan. He demands Rizwan's body for removal, yet a niggling doubt lingers—could Rizwan have been falsely implicated?
Rafiq urges Murtaza to extend empathy towards Naseem, whose heart is shattered by her brother's suicide. He pleads for Murtaza to grant Naseem the mercy of arranging her brother's funeral. Meanwhile, across continents, Mr. Kao traverses to the United States, carrying grave news to the CIA: Pakistan's clandestine efforts to smuggle nuclear warfare materials.
The CIA official, Mr. Kissinger, responds with a chillingly candid assessment. India, he notes, has yet to affix its signature to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT). Furthermore, India remains open to the possibility of manufacturing and employing nuclear weapons in future conflicts, casting a ominous shadow over global peace.
Mr. Kao attempts to elucidate to Kissinger that his hands are tied in persuading the Prime Minister to affix his signature to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, as such matters transcend his authority. Across the border in Pakistan, Vishnu and his compatriots find themselves increasingly anxious, realizing they've lost their inside source within the ISI. Vishnu, devising a strategy but mindful of the perilous undertaking, resolves to press ahead and tasks Vikram with orchestrating Bilal's abduction.
The international ensemble successfully executes the kidnapping and embarks on a grueling quest to extort information regarding the nuclear bomb from Bilal through coercion. At first, Bilal steadfastly denies any knowledge of the deal, but RAW agents employ his son as leverage, dangling the child's safety over his head to coerce a confession.
Meanwhile, Murtaza grows concerned over Bilal's prolonged absence and instructs Gulam to reach out. His anxiety spikes when Bilal fails to respond to repeated calls. Vikram's threat to terminate Bilal's son's life proves unbearable, compelling Bilal to call Murtaza and weave a tale to reassure him of his well-being.
Under duress, Bilal spills the beans, revealing that he was instructed to orchestrate bogus purchases to deceive HGN into believing Pakistan possessed the finances to acquire nuclear weapons. He further discloses that HGN has bitten the bait and is poised to deliver the components for the nuclear bomb to Pakistan, where they will be assembled and subsequently tested. However, Bilal remains in the dark about the precise delivery date of these lethal cargoes.
The international team, having outlived their need for Bilal,残忍地终结了他的生命，并伪造了一场车祸以掩盖罪行。Murtaza, piecing together clues, discovers that Bilal was last seen in the company of a Mossad agent, decoding this as evidence of a covert collaboration between RAW and Mossad for their clandestine mission.
In a separate development, Mr. Kissinger reaches out to Mr. Bhutto with a stark warning: the perilous path Pakistan treads by pursuing nuclear weaponry without American consent. Undeterred, Mr. Bhutto issues Murtaza a direct order: to ensure the nuclear hardware reaches Pakistani soil unscathed.
Fatefully, Fatima's workplace acquaintance opens her eyes to the perils lurking beneath Bhutto's nuclear ambitions. Moved by this revelation, she resolves to aid Vishnu and aligns herself with RAW, standing in defiance of her country's dangerous course.
Meanwhile, Murtaza intensifies his strategy to outwit RAW agents. He fortifies the HGN factory in France with stringent security measures and devises a deceptive delivery plan: the hardware would be concealed within three inconspicuous containers amidst a fleet of 19 decoy units.
RAW agents, realizing Murtaza's leverage of a vast international shipping network, conclude that tracing and halting the shipment has become a near-impossible task. Vishnu, however, posits a desperate yet viable solution: to intercept the hardware not en route, but at the Pakistani border.
The episode culminates with Vishnu's solemn pronouncement—the sole hope of averting a nuclear holocaust against India lies in successfully dismantling the hardware shipment before it crosses into Pakistani territory.
