The episode starts with Mangal, disguised as a magician, talking to Adit on stage. Mangal subtly hints to Adit that he has a secret. Adit argues with Mangal, saying that he does not have any secret, and tries to leave. Mangal makes fake currency fall all over the stage. Adit looks at the currency and realizes that it is the same currency he had printed. He wonders how it could be there. Some people in the audience pick up the notes and discover that they are fake. Mangal then makes a comment about Adit. Adit leaves the stage.
Sowmya sees Jairaj but does not recognize him because he is disguised as a magician. She asks him what he is doing there. Sowmya then sees Ishana entering the corridor and hides from her. Jairaj thinks that Ishana has saved him and leaves. Sowmya locks the door and leaves as well. Later, Jairaj returns to the room, finds the bags of fake currency, takes them, and leaves.
Adit becomes worried about the consignment. He calls Sowmya and asks if it is safe. Sowmya tells him that the consignment is gone and that someone has taken it. Adit says that the magician appears to be a police informer. He instructs Sowmya to abort the mission and escape, adding that the police have already arrived. Sowmya suspects that Mangal is the police informer and vows to defeat her this time. She then calls someone and says that no one should survive today.
Jairaj tells Mangal that he has Adit’s fake currency consignment. Mangal says that all that remains now is to catch Adit red-handed.
It is revealed that Mangal and Jairaj decided to use Adit’s fake currency during the magic performance to distract him. They fill two containers with the fake currency and ask the school staff to place the props above the stage.
A doll operated by remote control appears on stage. The doll warns the audience that they must obey him or they will die. First, the doll asks Kusum Saxena to collect a parcel and change into a costume; otherwise, Akshat will die. Worried about Akshat, Kusum does exactly as instructed. Later, audience members change into the costume one by one. The doll then asks everyone to pick up the fake currency scattered on the floor and do so while dancing.
Mangal and Jairaj suspect that someone is operating the doll from backstage. They search backstage but do not find anyone. Adit becomes frustrated and asks the doll who he is. Suddenly, bullets start flying through the hall. Kusum asks Adit to obey the doll’s instructions, or they will all die. Adit agrees.
The audience gathers the fake currency and places it into two bags. The doll then instructs Ishana to take the bags into the corridor and not look back. Ishana takes the bags and heads into the corridor. Mangal follows her.
In the corridor, smoke suddenly fills the area. Sowmya arrives and takes the bags from Ishana. Mangal witnesses this from a distance, but due to the smoke, she is unable to identify who took them.
Sowmya thinks that she should never have given up control. Ishana returns to the auditorium. The doll then announces that everyone must hand over the fake currency to whoever currently has it. Upon hearing this, Mangal tells Jairaj that they should hand over the bags; otherwise, her family will die. Jairaj responds that there is no guarantee the culprit will spare them even after receiving the fake currency.
The episode ends.
