In Mumbai, Shrikant is put on administrative leave by the NIA superiors after Kulkarni's death, and they inform him that he will be treated as a suspect. Meanwhile, Suchitra's office is vandalized by protesters, and Dhriti confides in her mother that she's being bullied online.

Suchitra tries calling Shrikant, but he's intoxicated at a bar. Upon returning home, he learns about the bullying the family is facing and promises to take care of those attacking them.

On another front, Rukma meets Nima's parents and asks them to look after Bobby. Nima's father refuses, claiming they disowned her years ago. Rukma threatens him, but Bobby refuses to let go of him. So Rukma takes the boy along.

In Mumbai, Zoya returns to the TASC office and learns about Shrikant's leave and the new officer being sent from Delhi.

In the bustling streets of Mumbai, Atharv, faced with relentless bullying from a pack of boys, turns to JK for help.

In London, Sameer's encounter with Martin reveals Meera's meeting with Dwaraknath, prompting him to call Rukma and issue a cautionary warning about associating with Meera. However, Rukma remains unfazed. That evening, Shrikant joins JK, Punit, and Ajit in a desperate bid for help. He asks Punit to delve into the mystery of who within TASC was snooping around in the Northeast files.

The next day, Punit's investigation uncovers a shocking revelation – their phones are bugged, and the NIA has been tracking their movements with high-tech spyware. As Shrikant prepares to depart for New Delhi to meet with PM Basu, Punit confronts him with the truth about the phone bugging and urges him to evade arrest as Yatish is hot on his trail. JK throws his phone away in a fit of desperation and informs Shrikant about the impending danger.

With the flight gate closing in on him, Shrikant makes a swift exit, leaving his phone with another passenger as Yatish learns too late that he had missed his target. The family's phones are found in an anonymous autorickshaw, and the episode ends with JK and Shrikant aboard a train, accompanied by Suchitra, Dhriti, and Atharv, all united in their fight against injustice and bullying.
