The episode begins with Malishka asking Balwinder why he came. Balwinder responds that he wants to be with her until the baby is born and mentions that he’s thinking about taking responsibility as the baby’s father. Malishka agrees, and Balwinder pulls her into a hug.
Meanwhile, Rano notices Mittal staring at her, which sparks an argument between them. Mittal then catches sight of Aanchal and is immediately mesmerized by her.
Balwinder suggests a way to feel the baby’s kick, and Malishka laughs, saying, “Your trick is working. That kick literally knocked me out!” Lakshmi overhears their conversation and tries to peek inside, but she can’t see clearly. Just then, Rishi walks in and spots the joker and Malishka together. He asks them if they’ve seen his wife. They inform him that Lakshmi is outside and guide him to her. Lakshmi, determined to figure out who’s with Malishka, tries to find out more.
Bhalla approaches Aanchal and asks her to dance, and soon everyone joins in the celebration. As they dance, Malishka urges Balwinder to leave while everyone is distracted. Lakshmi signals Ayush to stop the joker, saying she needs to speak with him. Ayush halts Balwinder, making Malishka anxious. Lakshmi tries to get a good look at the joker but can’t see his face clearly. Balwinder takes the chance to slip away, and Lakshmi chases after him. Shalu asks Lakshmi where she’s going, and Lakshmi replies that she wants to uncover the joker’s true identity. Shalu offers to help and suggests pouring water on him. She prepares soapy water. Lakshmi uses the water and uncovers the joker’s identity—it’s Balwinder. She immediately connects the dots, and Balwinder runs off.
Kiran witnesses Balwinder’s face being revealed and quickly pulls him into a room. She confronts him about his behavior toward Malishka, accusing him of blackmailing her and questioning his intentions with her daughter. Shalu watches from outside the room through the window, shocked by their conversation. Kiran and Balwinder discuss the situation, and Shalu decides to listen in further. Kiran tells Balwinder to cover his face with a mask and sends him away. Shalu becomes suspicious of their actions.
Lakshmi starts suspecting a link between Malishka and Balwinder and decides to dig deeper. Malishka fails to wake Rishi and then spots Balwinder in the hallway. She quickly pulls him aside to talk. Meanwhile, Ayush wonders why Lakshmi had asked him to stop the joker, but Karishma interrupts and tells Ayush to focus on helping Rishi. Ayush agrees and assists Rishi, while Shalu prepares Kadha for him.
Malishka pulls Balwinder aside and asks how his makeup was removed. Balwinder explains that Lakshmi saw him, but he managed to cover his face with a mask from others. He reassures Malishka that there’s no need to worry, as Lakshmi still doesn’t know that she’s carrying his child. Lakshmi overhears this conversation and is left in shock.
