the high-octane drama of the “Midnight Raid” continues as Jagadhatri (JAS) narrowly escapes a lethal trap, only to find that the conspiracy runs deeper than her own department.
The Great Escape
The episode opens with Jagadhatri cornered at the docks. Using her tactical brilliance and a smoke grenade, she manages to disarm the gunmen and retrieve a secondary ledger from the smugglers’ vehicle. However, in the crossfire, she sustains a graze on her arm. She realizes that the “family associate” she saw was actually a double agent working for Menon, who is orchestrating the smuggling ring from behind the scenes.
The Silent Return
Jagadhatri sneaks back into the Sanyal mansion just before dawn. She struggles to hide her injury while dressing for the morning puja. Swayambhu, who has been awake and suspicious, nearly catches her when he notices bloodstains on the bathroom floor. Jagadhatri quick-wittedly blames it on a broken glass vase, but the look in Swayambhu’s eyes suggests he is no longer buying her excuses.
Koushik’s Public Accusation
During breakfast, Koushik drops a bombshell. He presents a video clip (doctored by his associates) that shows a woman resembling Jagadhatri entering a high-profile criminal’s office. He uses this to demand that Vaidehi strip Jagadhatri of her keys to the family safe. The family is shocked, and for the first time, even Utsa begins to doubt Jagadhatri’s integrity.
The Climax: The Challenge
The episode ends with Jagadhatri calmly accepting the challenge. Instead of defending herself, she produces the secondary ledger she recovered at the docks. She claims she found it near the NGO office and that it contains names of everyone who has been “stealing” from the family trust. The final shot is of Koushik’s face turning pale as he realizes Jagadhatri might have evidence that could send him to prison.

Precap for Monday:
Swayambhu finds Jagadhatri’s service badge hidden in a secret compartment in her vanity. Meanwhile, Menon sends a “gift” to the Sanyal house—a bouquet of flowers with a note that says, “See you at the NGO tomorrow, Officer Jas.” Jagadhatri realizes her cover is nearly blown and must decide whether to confess the truth to Swayambhu or go on the run.
