Police station
Shobha tries to stop Tanya from going to meet Ruchika inside police station. But much shocking to her Tanya shows her anger this time.
Shobha ; this all happened because of you, in all this years none of my Rakhi’s children made such mistakes and now you forced our Rishab to accept an illegitimate child
Tanya : listen (holds her hand) you can tell me whatever you want but I have not given rights to anybody for badmouthing my child nor my honesty to my profession
Shobha : finally you showed your true colors, I knew on first day that you are not good match for my Rishab
Tanya : I would have given you reply but right now my duty is calling me as lawyer and daughter in law of this family (jerks her hand off and starts walking)
Shobha remains speechless in front her
“Chachiji, I respect you a lot but sometime its children’s duty to show elders right way” Tanya leaves to go inside
The cops torture Sahil and Ruchika beating them badly for confession.
“How much you beat me, my answer won’t change” Sahil resists
The lady constable grabs Ruchika’s hair tightly and throws on floor. Her body get bruises andn pain something she never felt before.
“Say the truth or else this delicate body of yours won’t be able to take the torture” lady constable slaps Ruchika
The duo loses the strength and ability to stand up on their feet.
Luthra family and Sahil’s mom come to meet them but cops does not allow them.
Tanya : Commissioner uncle please, just for once let us see them, I need to talk with them
Walia : they are not in condition to say anything
“What do you mean” Rakhi asks him
Commissioner asks constable to bring them. Both are brought to front. Their condition shocks the family to the extent which they could ever imagine to see their children. Sahil and Roo loses their capability to speak or react.
Kritika solaces her sister to reduce the pain but wound within them are too deep. Preeta touches Sahil’s injury but he stops her.
Shrishti : how badly they have hit, even animals are not tortured like this, uncle what is this?
Walia : I am sorry but right now even things are not in my hands
Tanya : you cannot do anything but I won’t keep quiet (wipes blood from Roo’s lips)
She goes to meet the officer in charge who was given orders for beating.
Rathod : yes?
Tanya ; Listen Mr Rathod, do you know I can make you suspend right now for torturing two innocent people on circumstantial evidence
Rathod : Ma’am we are not fond of doing all this but we are given orders from superiors, and your relatives have done deed like that
Tanya : I know about murder thing but you are not allowed to touch them
Rathod ; go wherever you want but nobody can save this two now, they have killed daughter of a politician
Tanya : listen you
Dhruv : wait there is no point of explaining them anything things are very complicated we have to deal calmly come lets go
Tanya ; but Dhruv
Dhruv : please come on (takes her out)
Everybody gets tensed with situation and goes back to Luthra house.

Preeta : I know, anyway I came to inform you Sherlyn wanted to talk something important
Tanya ; yea lets go come
Dhruv, Sameer and girls go to forensic lab to get information about Payal’s muser. Dr Iyar is very renowned forensic expert and Sherlyn’s uncle.
Sherlyn : uncle did you find anything?
Iyar : give me sometime (goes through the victim’s body to gather information)
Tanya : Dr, how did she get shot?
Iyar : seeing the wound my doubt is getting clear, bullet has been shot from distance
All gets shocked
Preeta : even I think, Dhruv see the wound it does not look like bullet is shot from close
Tanya : we would find that only after talking to ruchika and Sahil, right now they are not allowing to interrogate them
Iyar : one more thing , the bullet she got is not an ordinary they are more used in foreign places
Shrishti : you mean? the shooter have used different type of bullet obviously he was hired from another country
Sameer : but then how did they find gun inside the house because all of them were in house
Sherlyn : Dr, can is it be possible bullet might have shot from outside
Iyar : could be since you all are saying everybody was in the house
Dhruv : but its very hard to prove, their fingerprints are on the gun
Iyer : where is that gun?
Dhruv : with the cops, they have kept it with interrogation
Iyer : if I could get chance to see that gun, I will figure out
Tanya : you leave that to me I will find some way, if not then we will prove that in court
Preeta : court? you mean this case will be dragged in court now
Tanya : what do you expect? its not ordinary murder, a politician’s daughter, now with media and cops their party will also behind us
Preeta : oh god
Sameer : I think we should all go home now, chacha chachi are very much stressed out
Iyer : yea you should all leave its very late
The siblings heads back to home but nobody is able to sleep due to catastrophe. Tanya paces around in the room while Preeta sits on bed
Preeta : I still cannot forget that wound our Roo and Sahil, how were they coping with it
Tanya : I know, the girl who was raised in so much pamper today she is dealing with thorns
Preeta : but one question is rising in my mind, who would have killed Payal, I mean maybe one of the rival but why only that time when Roo and Sahil was with her
The question also strikes on Tanya’s mind
“You are right, clearly says somebody known have done for a big reason” Tanya tells her
Rakhi gets depressed about her daughter’s injury as well as Mahesh.
“Maheshji, what wrong we did to anybody our children are suffering one after other, my Rishab, Kritika and now Ruchika” Rakhi soba
Mahesh : god is testing us, but saddest part we cannot even give solace to our daughter, her silence said a lot
Rakhi : if she had told us everything would we have refused but we are also at fault
“I am very unfortunate father who cannot even wipe our daughters tears, how she might be staying there” Mahesh breakdown
The siblings comes to console them.
Shrishti : uncle if you breakdown like this how will you handle your Ruchika, she is still a kid
Sameer : chachi, you always considered us equal then won’t you trust us, we will bring them back
Mahesh : we have full trust on you all, my wishes are with you

Sahil : actually, I know Saurav from school days in boarding, then after school we did not stay in touch much
Tanya : what was going on from past few days? I am not going to ask about this MMS but just tell me were they blackmailing you with this
Roo : that day when they came to our house, I went to meet Saurav alone (reveals everything)
Tanya : why didn’t you both tell any elder about all this mess
Roo : bhabhi I was scared if something had went wrong that video could have gone viral
“Few things you should leave on elders” Tanya stamps her hand on table

Both remained shock as they are still under dilemma how everything happened
Sahil : actually we are still in shock how the bullet fired we were trying to stop her
Tanya : stop from what?
Roo : she grabbed gun and pointing somewhere we thought it was on us so we were holding gun together
Sahil : what happened ?
Tanya ; forensic expert said bullet was fired from distance and you both are saying it was shot close

Sahil : that means she somebody was outside and Payal was trying to save us
Tanya : I don’t know, right now everything is very complicated, and they found drugs in your car
Sahil : what? but how

Dhruv : did the date come for case
Tanya ; yes tomorrow but there is one problem
Kritika : what problem
Tanya : I have never been to court cases there are different types of lawyer for criminal cases
Preeta ; but you are still authorized to fight right
Tanya : Preeta try to understand, I have done my law in different country, Karan’s case was different we dealt with that easily here we have to deal against strong defense and I don’t even have experience we cannot take chance to lose
Kritika : now what we will do then? which lawyer will take the case
Tanya : Sameer did you talk with previous lawyer of Luthra you might know somebody
Sameer : unfortunately no lawyer is willing to take this case, that Singhania have played big this time he have gained public sympathy
“Tanya please only you can save my Roo” Kritka gets teary eyes
Rakhi comes there and tell sibling to leave her alone with Tanya .
Tanya : yes mom
Rakhi : dear you know I always doubted my decision was right or not
Tanya looks on
Rakhi ; today you have to prove that my decision was right, more than others you have done so Rishab and this family, I always wanted a girl who can share my Rishab’s duties and life (takes her to temple downstairs)
Tanya : why did you bring me here?
“After few days is Dussehra , the day when good triumph over evil and you know ten days people worship Durga Maa when she killed Mahishasur, she was also woman, you have to also burn evil in fire like Ravaan’s ego was burned in ashes” Rakhi explains them importance of truth
Tanya bows down to her feet as well as Preeta.
“May truth win, this is blessing of not a mother but woman” Rakhi applies red kumkum on their forehead blessing them
Preeta : Dussehra is known for ending of bad this time also same will happen
The girls bow down in front of god for victory. Everybody gets busy in preparing for the case. Tanya tells Sherlyn to travel at Ooty to get information of Kaya.
Sherlyn : but why?
Tanya : because I know very well this topic will be raised in court
Sherlyn : how?
Tanya : first rule, prosecutor lawyer always try to bring light to character of guilty, secondly they will try to make Roo and Sahil’a affair look wrong, so I want you to go find how did Kaya exactly died
Sherlyn : okay I will leave tomorrow morning but sadly I won’t be able to see my lawyer sister in court, best of luck (hugs her)
Tanya : thanks, and be careful okay
Sherlyn : don’t worry but one thing is bothering me
Tanya : what?
Sherlyn : how come there are no cameras in the mansion, we could easily access and prove
Tanya : there is no use, they would have edited by now and made it against Roo and Sahil
Next day the first trial day comes. The media surrounds Mahesh and Rakhi asking about their daughter’s affair.
Sameer ; Excuse me, will you all stop bothering them, right now their daughter’s future is on stake and you all are busy in your TRP’s please move

Sahil and Ruchika feels awkward for coming at place they could have imagined.
Preeta : Sameer who is this lawyer?
“Mr Ahuja I heard he is very renowned lawyer of country, he has not lose any case till now” Sameer informs them
Preeta : but our Tanya is no less either
Sameer : its easy to say bhabhi this lawyer is very shrewd and cunning
The hearing starts
Judge : Prosector lawyer you may proceed
Ahuja : your honor the case is very clear, Ruchika luthra was supposed to get engaged with Saurav Singhania due her family was in debt but she was in love with Sahil Sinha, so Ms Payal found out and they both killed her
Tanya ; objection my lord, I want to remind Prosecutor lawyer that all proofs found are circumstantial but none of the evidence prove crime of my clients
Judge : objection sustained
Tanya : thank you My lord (goes back to her seat)
Ahuja : first of all I want to call Ruchika Luthra’s best friend Pooja who will certificate of her character
Judge : permission granted
Pooja come in witness box
Ahuja : Ms Pooja, you are Ms Ruchika Luthra’s best friend, from how many years you know her
Pooja : yes, around 5 years we both studied in same college
Ahuja : but if I am not wrong, Ruchika’s close friend was Kaya Shrivastav, and she was also Sahil Sinha’s girlfriend
Pooja : once we all went on a trip to Ooty, thats where we met Kaya first and their friendship started, I was not so close to her
Ahuja : so obviously you might have met Mr Sahil there too
Pooja ; no first time I met him in college
Ahuja : your friend might have told you something about him right
Pooja ; Roo liked him from first day itself but I don’t know if she met him before in Ooty or Mumbai (looks at Roo)
Ahuja : so you are saying they both didn’t meet in Bombay when Kaya was there
Pooja ; I said I don’t know anything, but yes Kaya wanted them to meet in Ooty the day when she had an accident
Ahuja : who told you this?
Pooja : because I remember once Roo told me Kaya called her to meet Sahil in Ooty
Roo and Sahil looks her confusingly
Ahuja : thank you Ms Pooja you can go
Pooja leaves
Tanya : Mr Ahuja, what does this case have to do with their first meeting
Ahuja : big link Mrs Luthra, take a seat you will find out soon
Tanya goes back
Ahuja : My lord here is main point, Ruchika and Sahil’s love is not new from months but from years when Kaya was alive, when she became threat they both got rid of her, to make my words more strong I would like to call Ms Ruchika
Roo comes up in the box
Ahuja : Ms Ruchika as your friend said you were supposed to meet Sahil in Ooty due to Kaya but unfortunately she died in accident
Roo gets nervous hearing his claim
Flashback
Before court trial
Tanya : Ruchika today there will be time in your life when whole world will question your character, certain allegation will be made and there you have to be very strong, don’t let anybody put you down and your self respect
Roo ; bhabhi, how will I face everybody
Tanya (holds her face): listen to me, you cannot be weak, if you are right no power can given you both punishment
Sahil : I trust you bhabhi
Tanya : good, you both promise me no matter what happens but you won’t lose your calm not even for each other or else case can get weak
Roo : we promise you bhabhi
Both puts hand on hers
Flashback ends
Roo : looks like you came with half information, never mind I will tell you
Everybody gets bit surprised with her reaction
Roo : yes I was supposed to meet Sahil in Ooty and Kaya planned our meeting, but we couldn’t see each other
Ahuja ; why?
Roo : my dad had a stroke so I had to rush that evening and I couldn’t even meet Kaya
Ahuja : really? then tell me something why did it took you so long to know your best friend cum sister has been death
Roo remain speechless and looks at Tanya
Tanya : Mr Ahuja I have question for you, this case is for Payal Singhania’s murder not Kaya whats the logic
Ahuja : your honor, I want to make one more point here, her client is childhood friend of Saurav and Payal so obviously they knew about Kaya later, this is diary of Payal (shows to judge)
Sahil and Roo gets nervous
Ahuja : Payal got to know how Sahil and Ruchika planned to get Kaya out of their way, this two also killed her to save themselves
Roo : how can you prove we were behind Kaya’s death based on this diary
Tanya : exactly your honor, diary could be misleading
Ahuja : but the handwriting cannot be, my lord I want to bring that garage mechanic who tampered Kaya’s car brakes when she was going to pick her so fiancee Sahil
The mechanic shows Ruchika’s bracelet as toek of money to bribe for tampering Kaya’s car and making it to accident.
Precap : Case continues with another side by tanya showing proof against Saurav
