The episode begins with Malishka confronting Balvinder, frustrated at his failure to kidnap Lakshmi as promised. She angrily tells him that despite all his big claims, he hasn’t accomplished anything. Balvinder tries to defend himself, but Malishka walks off with him. Meanwhile, Rishi asks Rano if the pandit in front of them is the same one who had harmed her. Rano clarifies that it’s not the same person. Acharia ji confirms that he’s the real pandit and Balvinder isn’t the one who hurt him. Malishka chimes in, saying she had seen this pandit at the temple.
In her room, Dadi feels uneasy despite everything seemingly going well. She can’t shake off the feeling that something bad is about to happen.
The smugglers, guns in hand, storm downstairs, firing into the air. Neelam steps forward, demanding to know what’s going on. The leader announces that he will explain, and soon more of his men appear, pointing guns at the terrified family.
Shalu rushes into Dadi’s room with Paru and Rohan. Dadi, sensing something is wrong, asks what happened. Paru explains that thieves have entered the house. Shalu adds that the thieves have knocked out the inspector, Mukesh, and the pandit. Paru mentions that Rano was locked in the bathroom, and Dadi asks if anyone has freed her.
Meanwhile, the inspector tries to overpower one of the smugglers, but the other criminals quickly intervene, holding him down.
Shalu tells Dadi to stay in the room with the kids while she goes to check on Lakshmi. Dadi, worried, advises Shalu to be careful, and Paru reassures Dadi that they’ll be fine.
The smuggler leader points his gun at the inspector. Rishi tries to fight back, but the smugglers push him aside. Aayush jumps in to help, but Neelam, panicking, begs them not to provoke the criminals.
Paru, feeling brave, tells Dadi that she’s ready to fight the criminals, but Rohan suggests they should focus on getting the smugglers arrested. Despite their eagerness to act, Dadi convinces the kids to stay put, reasoning that it’s best to let the adults handle the situation for now.
One of the criminals threatens Rishi, forcing him to back off. Malishka steps in front of Rishi, pleading with the smugglers not to harm him. The leader reassures her that they’re only there to rob the family. The inspector warns the criminal to surrender, but the leader dismisses him, saying they’re just a small gang after a quick score. David then tells one of his accomplices to steal the diamonds from the statue while the others take jewelry from the guests. Rishi, defiant, warns the criminals to leave, but they threaten him into silence.
Recognizing Balvinder, one of the smugglers confronts him for having knocked him out earlier. Balvinder, desperate, tries to make a deal, offering to help the gang in exchange for his safety. Just then, Aanchal walks in, talking to the commissioner. The smuggler leader grabs her, but Aanchal slaps him in response. Enraged, the leader pulls out his gun, prompting Rishi to jump into action, giving everyone a chance to escape. The leader, now furious, yells at his men, asking where everyone has gone.
Rishi pulls Lakshmi aside, and she asks where the children are. Rishi reassures her that they’re safe in Dadi’s room. Aansh then arrives and informs them that Shalu has taken the children to Dadi’s room.
Elsewhere, Malishka and Balvinder argue. Balvinder, frustrated, insists he can handle everything on his own and tries to leave the room. Guddu enters and advises Balvinder to stay hidden. Malishka sarcastically remarks that it was a mistake bringing Balvinder out of the mental asylum. Despite her mocking, Balvinder remains determined to kidnap Lakshmi, but Guddu refuses to help him.
Avinash enters the room with Karishma, Aanchal, and Neelam. Neelam is distraught and doesn’t know what to do. Avinash suggests calling the police, but Karishma doubts it will help. Neelam, on the phone with Rishi, asks if he’s okay. Rishi reassures her but warns him not to take any risks. She then asks about Paru and Rohan, urging him to bring the children to her. Aayush joins in, asking what’s happening. Rishi explains that their mother wants to see the children. Aayush suggests sending Aansh to escort the children, but he jokes that Aansh is just eager to be near Lakshmi Bhabhi, causing Aayush to realize that Aansh is really interested in being close to Shalu.
Aayush pulls Shalu aside, but she misunderstands, thinking the person approaching is a guest. Aayush warns her that it’s actually a smuggler. Shalu, embarrassed, admits she thought he was just another guest. The two manage to escape together.
Back in Dadi’s room, the children hear a knock. Paru guesses it’s her mother. Lakshmi enters, rushing to hug Dadi. She sits with Paru and Rohan, asking if they’re okay. Dadi asks if the criminals have left, but Lakshmi tells her they’re still dealing with the situation. Paru and Rohan boast that they’re brave enough to fight the criminals, but Lakshmi insists they stay put.
Meanwhile, Aanchal realizes the pandit they spoke to earlier was an imposter. Karishma tries to silence her, but Neelam, worried for the children, asks them to be quiet. She’s concerned about how the children will be affected by this traumatic event. Determined to protect the kids, Neelam rushes to check on them, with the others following closely behind.
Lakshmi comforts the children, telling them they can’t leave the room as the adults are handling the situation. Dadi, relieved that Lakshmi has come, jokes about how Paru and Rohan were ready to show her their bravery. Just as Lakshmi tries to lock the door, one of the criminals bursts in, shoving her onto the bed and pointing a gun at them, leaving everyone in the room terrified.
