The episode begins with Aadhya in danger as a group of goons surround her. She firmly warns them to stay away from her. Just then, someone suddenly appears and hits one of the goons, saving Aadhya. The situation is too overwhelming for her, and she faints on the spot.
Meanwhile, Anupama wakes up, feeling hopeful about a new beginning with Aadhya. She goes to the hall to check on her daughter but finds her missing. She assumes Aadhya might have gone for an early morning walk or exercise, just like her father used to. Anupama notices the door left open and heads outside after doing her morning prayer and tulsi puja. As she steps out, she hears someone shouting—Kaveri is calling her in panic. Anupama rushes to the voice and is shocked to find Aadhya lying unconscious outside. Kaveri had called her to inform her about the girl lying in the cowshed.

Anupama is confused about how Aadhya ended up there. Just then, Prem arrives and explains everything. A flashback plays, showing how Prem had gone to collect his jeep from a mechanic late at night. On his way back, he heard goons troubling Aadhya. He rushed to her rescue, fought off the goons, and protected her. Aadhya fainted from the stress and high fever. While carrying her, he heard her whisper that she missed her “pops” (father) and couldn’t live without him.
Prem was about to bring her home, but when he saw people standing outside the Shah house, he was worried that the family might get defamed. He called Anupama, but her phone was off, and he had no other numbers. So he took Aadhya to the cowshed, covered her with a dupatta, and cared for her all night by placing a wet cloth on her forehead to reduce the fever. He tells Anupama that he stayed nearby the whole night but asks her not to tell Aadhya that he was the one who brought her there.
Just then, Aadhya wakes up and sees Prem. She questions him harshly about what he is doing there so early in the morning. Their usual argument begins. Anupama doesn’t tell her the truth and lets the matter slide. Meanwhile, Jigar Bhai arrives and shows Anupama a big lock, saying he had warned Pakhi to pay two months’ rent or he would shut down “Anu Ki Rasoi.” He wishes them Happy Diwali in advance and reminds them about the pending rent.
Toshu blames Anupama for always choosing charity over financial responsibility. Anupama is shocked and asks Pakhi why she didn’t mention the rent issue. Pakhi says she forgot because of all the drama related to Aadhya (Rahi). Kinjal reminds everyone there’s still time. Dolly suggests using savings. Baa also insists they must use their savings to keep the food service running. Everyone agrees that more orders will come during Diwali.
Anupama shocks them all by saying she doesn’t have any savings left. Toshu angrily asks if she spent all her money. Pakhi taunts that Aadhya only came because of the 10 lakhs Anupama gave to the orphanage. Anupama defends her actions, saying if she hadn’t helped the orphanage, Aadhya wouldn’t have come home. This leads to a heated argument.
Pari tries to help and offers her own personal savings, saying she wants to help just like Anupama. But Kinjal shuts her down. Mahi tries to speak, but the elders tell her not to interfere. Anupama firmly states that the money was hers, and she has every right to decide how to use it. She says she sacrificed her personal needs for years to save that money, and she would have taken a loan if needed just to help her daughter. Aadhya overhears this emotional conversation and is visibly affected.
Meanwhile, the children—Pari, Ansh, and Mahi—gather and count their savings. They don’t have much, not even Rs. 5000. Ansh feels sad and says they are just a burden on the family. Pari asks Ishu to help, but Ishu refuses, saying that Anupama created this problem and should fix it herself. Pakhi joins in, accusing Anupama of caring more for outsiders like Rahi and Mahi than her own children. Ishu taunts Pakhi and walks away. Seeing the tension in the family, the kids decide they will try to find work and earn money to support the house.
Aadhya listens to all this and starts feeling guilty. She remembers the children in the orphanage and how much she still cares for them. She realizes her presence is creating problems for the Shah family.
Anupama sits by herself, looking at a photo of Anuj and Aadhya. She reflects on everything and prays to find a solution. Just then, her chain pendant falls onto the photo frame, and she holds it emotionally, taking it as a sign.
Aadhya finally speaks up and tells the others not to take up this financial burden on her behalf. She wants Anupama to deal with her own problems, making it clear that she doesn’t want to cause any more trouble.

The postman inquires, “Where’s Krishnakunj? I’ve a delivery.” Aadhya accepts the package and passes it to Anupama. Prem mentions, “This courier’s served Asha Bhavan for years.” Anupama discovers Anuj’s named chain, pendant, and letter inside.
