Episode Summary

The episode opens with rising suspicion inside the mansion after Zarmala notices the maid Shireen behaving oddly, repeatedly pressing Sarbuland to drink a glass of juice before hastily disposing of it when he refuses. Zarmala shares her concerns with Sarbuland, reminding him that his elder brother Sherdil was poisoned before being attacked, and warns that whoever wanted him dead may now be targeting Sarbuland too. Though reluctant to suspect a servant as loyal as Shireen, Sarbuland agrees to let Zarmala personally take over cooking for him and Bibi Jaan to ensure their safety, a decision that unsettles the household staff and draws criticism from his sister-in-law Noor, who feels the family's longtime servants are being unfairly distrusted. Meanwhile, Shireen is revealed to be secretly working for a mysterious "Khan Sir," reporting her failed poisoning attempt and expressing desperate devotion to him despite the growing risk of exposure. Elsewhere, Torsam rejects Gul Meher's affections and a handmade gift, remaining loyal to his love for Rabiya despite her warnings that he is being manipulated by his uncle. In an emotional exchange, Bibi Jaan bonds with Zarmala over shared grief, and Zarmala finally confides the tragic story of her forced marriage to Mudassir and his murder, prompting Sarbuland to promise he will investigate and help her return home safely.


Episode Ending

The episode closes with Zarmala tearfully revealing the full truth of her past to Sarbuland, explaining how a obsessive man's harassment forced her uncle to marry her off to Mudassir, and how her happiness was shattered when Mudassir was murdered. Moved by her story, Sarbuland vows to identify and confront the man responsible for the murder and promises to help her reconnect with her uncle and brother by arranging a phone and SIM card for her. The episode ends with this promise of resolution and reunion hanging over Zarmala's uncertain fate, while the mystery of who is behind the poisoning attempts against Sarbuland remains unresolved.
