The episode, titled “The Boys Are Gone,” focuses on the fallout of the Mischief Makers’ secret mission and the first major “Paisa Villa” challenge.
The Empty Pyaar Villa
The episode opens with the girls in the Pyaar Villa waking up to total silence. After the “Mischief Maker” twist in the previous episode, all the boys were secretly moved to the Paisa Villa in the middle of the night. Akanksha and Anjali are the first to notice the empty beds, leading to a wave of panic and speculation that a mass elimination has occurred.
Welcome to Paisa Villa
The boys, including Tayne, Ayush, and Harshit, are seen adjusting to the luxury but high-tension environment of the Paisa Villa. Uorfi Javed and Nia Sharma greet them with a “Price Tag” challenge, where each boy must be “bought” by the existing Paisa Villa girls using their accumulated coins. This creates immediate friction between Diksha and the newcomers, as alliances from the Pyaar Villa are tested by financial greed.
The “Bidding War” Task
Sunny Leone and Karan Kundrra summon everyone for the first task of the week. The girls from the Pyaar Villa finally discover where their partners have gone. The task, “Bazaar-e-Ishq,” requires the girls to win a physical obstacle course to earn “bidding rights” to bring their preferred boys back to the Pyaar Villa. Sadhaaf shows incredible athleticism, but a tactical blunder by Himanshu during the coordination phase costs them the win.
The Climax: The First Betrayal
The episode ends with a shocking decision at the Power Chamber. Since the boys are currently “Paisa Villa property,” they are given the choice to stay for a guaranteed cash reward or return to their partners for “true love.” In a move that stuns the hosts, Tayne chooses to stay in the Paisa Villa, citing his need for “security,” leaving a tearful Anjali questioning their entire connection.
