Khatija is taking her role as nurse seriously, making sure Pervaiz is taking his medication and cooking him special meals. She tells him that she’s booked their flights and Kamal’s helping to clean up after the fire so there’s nothing for him to worry about. Pervaiz is comforted but asks Khatija to promise that she won’t cause any more scenes in public with Zenab. Khatija complies but makes it clear it’s only because she’s concerned about Pervaiz, she can’t forgive the Jilanis.

Two of Krishan’s classmates have him pinned in a corner, taunting him and calling him Mooli. He tries to get away and in his hurry bumps into Ryan, another classmate. Ryan takes in the scene and tells the other two to scarper. They are obviously in awe of Ryan and they slope off. Ryan found the goat incident hilarious and offers to walk with Krishan to the library. Krishan’s extremely grateful for his intervention and the pair head off together. To pay Ryan back Krishan helps him out with some overdue homework. Ryan soon realises Krishan could be very useful to him in return for protection, and he’s sure he could find some other customers too – what a nice little earner that could be!
