The episode begins with Mahi approaching Prem and asking him if Rahi had said anything to him. She expresses concern, saying that ever since Rahi became the boss, she has been hurting everyone, and Mahi doesn’t understand why she behaves this way. Prem replies that Rahi hasn’t hurt him, but he has hurt her. He adds that he doesn’t understand why people, including Mahi, speak ill of Rahi, and he tells Mahi that he overheard everyone and made curd. Meanwhile, Rahi arrives to buy popcorn and notices Sattu. She asks him if he has brought tourists with him. Sattu responds that she’s gone from an orphanage to a bungalow. He reveals that he has switched careers and is now a wedding planner, planning a destination wedding to earn some money. Rahi tells him that while they were competitors, there is no longer any enmity, and she wishes him luck. Sattu gives her a tender form for catering, mentioning that the client hasn’t liked any caterers so far. Rahi asks if Sattu trusts her, and she shares that she’s started a catering business. Sattu hands her the tender, emphasizing that the client is a strict Gujarati and there should be no mistakes. Rahi and Mahi both receive their forms and hope this will be their first big order for Anu ki Rasoi.
Prem draws a “Sorry” note with a poetic message for Rahi and turns it into a paper rocket. As Rahi and Mahi walk by, he throws the rocket at Rahi. She catches it and says it’s cute, possibly made by Radha. She tosses it back, and it lands on Mahi. Mahi reads it, smiling and commenting that Prem’s way of convincing is adorable. She tells him that if he convinces her like that, she will get upset often. Later, Mahi and Rahi argue over the tender. Anupama enters and asks what’s going on. Mahi explains that she filled the form, and they need to be there by 11 a.m. Rahi mentions she also filled the form. Anupama points out that it’s the same company. Rahi insists that her approach is different from Anupama’s. Anupama humorously says, “1+1 is 11,” and Rahi challenges her, saying they should cook separately and see who the client prefers. Anupama agrees to the challenge, and Rahi adds that if she wins the tender, she will have more authority in the company. Anupama accepts the challenge.

Prem, noticing the situation, asks Anupama why she didn’t tell Rahi that there is power in unity. Anupama agrees, then tells Prem to stay with Rahi during the competition. Mahi disagrees, insisting that Prem should be on their team. Anupama explains that Rahi needs to learn cooking and that whoever gets the order will benefit Anu ki Rasoi. She encourages Prem to be Rahi’s guide. Mahi seems upset, and Prem recites a poem. Mahi teases Anupama, saying, “Why doesn’t Anudi slap her?” Anupama is confused, but Mahi smiles and walks off. Prem reminds her that she hasn’t yet responded to his “Sorry” note.
Meanwhile, Baa scolds Toshu and Pakhi for getting into trouble, and Toshu admits that Prem was clever in his plan. Baa warns them not to do anything else, as she doesn’t want Anupama to throw them out. Dolly tells them about the competition between Anupama and Rahi over the tender, and Baa confidently says that Anupama will win. Dolly finds it amusing to see them fight.
Later, Radha asks Ansh where Rahi’s room is, and Ansh mentions that Rahi doesn’t have one. Radha jokes that there is room for everyone except Rahi. However, Ansh insists that Rahi stay in the room, offering it to her while he and Prem sleep outside. Rahi refuses, but Ansh insists. Radha excitedly jumps on the bed, and Baa and Dolly are pleased. Prem arrives, and Ansh asks him to vacate the room for Rahi. Prem agrees but says that Rahi must thank him and Ansh. Radha urges her to say it, and Rahi sarcastically thanks them both. Ansh asks where he will sleep, and Rahi tells him to sleep outside with toffee.
Rahi starts planning her menu, but the dishes aren’t ready yet. Prem approaches Anupama, who tells him to help Rahi. Prem complains about Rahi being upset with him because of a past issue over spices. Anupama teases him and tells him to go assist her. Prem plans to wait until Rahi asks for his help. Meanwhile, he heads to a Chinese stall and tells the chef that he’s a professional who can make dishes from any country. The chef jokes about people thinking they’re like film stars. Prem confidently talks about his culinary skills. Rahi overhears and decides to call him. At first, Prem ignores her, but when she calls again, he asks if she meant to call him. She inquires if there are other chefs named Prem, and the stall chef answers that even he is named Prem. Rahi laughs, and Prem serves her chow mein. She tries it and finds it acceptable, then orders him to have everything ready by 11 a.m. She reminds him that she’s the boss. Prem jokingly says that his true boss is Anupama and that he’ll help only if she asks nicely. Rahi says “please,” and he insists she says it again. Rahi admits she doesn’t know how to cook and needs a professional chef.
As the preparations continue, Mahi, Anupama, and Janki are busy cooking, while Prem works with Rahi in the kitchen. Mahi accidentally burns her hand, and Anupama advises her to be careful. Rahi and Prem exchange looks as they work together. Anupama gives Mahi a warning to be cautious. Prem then steps outside to bring Anupama a taste of the food. She offers her feedback, and Prem returns to the kitchen. While working, Prem accidentally burns his hand, and Mahi shows concern. Rahi brushes it off, telling Mahi to relax. The two women argue briefly, and Rahi calls Mahi weak. Prem downplays the incident, then asks Rahi to keep the food in the fridge, mentioning that all basic prep is done. Rahi agrees, and Prem heads to assist Anupama. Rahi takes a call from Bubbly, and someone sneaks into the kitchen and removes a dish from a bowl.
The next day, Ansh plays the shank, and Anupama and Rahi prepare their dishes. Anupama expresses confidence, saying they’ll get the order. Rahi, however, thinks to herself that she must win.
UPCOMING
Baa expresses her confidence that Rahi will do something unexpected. Anupama asks Rahi to step into Rahi ki Rasoi with her right foot first. Rahi agrees but falls on Anupama, and Anupama steps in first. Prem remarks that God wants the mother to enter first. Anupama helps Rahi up, and they both enter the kitchen together.
