the high-stakes dance performance from the previous night leads to a morning of brutal confrontations and a major threat to the secret marriage.
Tina’s Investigation
The episode opens with Tina reviewing photos from the college event. She zooms in on the matching bracelets worn by Nawab and Heer. Convinced that there is more to their “animosity” than meets the eye, she heads to the local jeweler’s shop shown on the bracelet’s tag. The jeweler confirms that the bracelets were sold as a “couple’s set” for a wedding, sending Tina into a vengeful spiral.
Nawab’s Fear of Failure
Nawab is on edge. His coach informs him that a scout from the National Cricket Academy will be visiting next week. Knowing that Tina’s father has the power to influence his selection, Nawab avoids Heer entirely. When Heer tries to talk to him about their performance, he tells her it was a “mistake” and that she should stay away from him to save his career. Heer is left questioning if her “Juliet” status is worth the constant rejection.
The Brar Family Conflict
At home, Dilip notices the bracelet on Heer’s wrist and questions her. Before Heer can answer, Gulaab intervenes, mocking Heer for wearing “cheap trinkets” and trying to look like a married woman. The irony isn’t lost on the viewers, as Gulaab unknowingly insults her own daughter-in-law. This scene highlights the growing isolation Heer feels within her own family.
The Climax: The Blackmail Begins
The episode ends with a chilling scene at the cricket ground. Tina approaches Nawab during his practice. Instead of shouting, she calmly shows him the jeweler’s receipt and the photos of him and Heer. She gives him an ultimatum: “Break Heer’s heart publicly tomorrow, or I’ll make sure you never hold a cricket bat professionally again.” The final shot is of Nawab’s trembling hands as he realizes he must choose between his passion and his wife.
