Episode starts with Helena instructing few servants to take good care of the guests. Chanakya comes to meet Helena and asks her about her missing favourite servant. Helena says she has more important things than looking out for her servants. Chanakya tries to get her talk more but she cleverly doesn't let any information spill. Chanakya leaves unconvinced and Helena smiles and thinks that this time she wont give Chanakya any hints about her master plan.
Everyone is gathered in Rajkeey Vidyalay.Chanakya is addressing the students about the competition and says the first task is going to last for 24 hours and would be a race between them. There would be limited time and water supply and would test the contestants both physically and mentally. He says that they should run wisely to win the race. He further explains that roundwise people who are not qualified enough would be eliminated till only one remains. Bindusar says let the best man win and commences the contest.
Akramak asks everyone to move towards the starting point and everyone starts to move. Ashok goes forward to Bindusar and says to him that his mother always said that we should take blessings from our elders before doing any work and since he is the all who he has now he wants his blessings.😳 Bindusar smilingly blesses him. Ashok takes blessings from Chanakya, who wishes him to win,proceeds to Akramak and other acharyas. Sushim goes to Bindusar and says that I have won this competition for the past two years and asks him to bless him to win again. He goes to Ahamkara and asks her if she wont wish him and says that if she is with him then definitely he will win anything.(mauke pe chauka beta😛😛 )Siamak also comes and takes blessings from Bindusar, Noor and Justin. Sushim says to Ashok that this wont be his beginning but his end. Bindusar kick starts the race and everyone starts running. Ashok is ahead followed by Siamak and then Sushim and others. Sushim's friends taunts him that see how Ashok is ahead of you. Sushim says that let him run, he wont go much ahead.
Rajaji raj meets up with Helena and says that your plan is damn good this time. Justin enters and Helena changes the topic. Justin gets suspicious and asks her why cant she include him fully in her plan? He says since he is the one who is getting sacrificed in her planning he has the right to know. She says that all her planning is to get him the throne. He says I love someone more than the throne. Helena says he is a fool, as his so called love is just using him. If ever she(Noor) had to choose between Siamak and Justin she would never choose him. She says this time she wont let him spoil her plan with his emotional foolishness, this time you either win or you loose. (reminded me this dialouge 'when you play the game of thrones you win or you die. there is no middle ground)
Siamak catches upto Ashok and asks him is he already tired. Ashok says no and Siamak asks him to keep running as Sushim might catch up. Ashok starts running and crosses the first check point. Soldier check him, Siamak is second and Sushim is third. The results are passed on to the royal gathering. At the second check point Siamak is resting when Ashok reaches there, he asks Ashok to run and says I will beat you at the second check point. Ashok runs, from behind a tree Sushim sees him and then goes after him and pushes him , he slips and falls into a hole. Sushim comes and says I had told you not to fight me, now you have to pay for it.😡(he should have played fairly😕) Ashok angryily looks at Sushim who continues with his running. Ashok shouts for someone to help him. Siamak hears his voice and comes there and is shocked to see him stuck.ashok tells him that Sushim pushed him into the hole. He offers to help him but Ashok says that its more important to win against Sushim and asks him to do it for him. Siamak reluctanatly leaves.🤔
Rajaji raj , Bindusar, Justin and Mir are playing pasha(old ludo) and Bindusar is winning. Rajaji raj says that since I have already given you my niece , I have lost to you. Justin and Agni Shikha exchange a look and smile. Noor is furious. She says since Justin seems to have changed teams now we should help Bindusar win, Mir nods. Agni Shikha says that it wont be that easy to win over us. Soldier comes with the result of the second post and Sushim is leading the race with Siamak close beind. Charumitra is very happy and congratulates Noor on Siamak being the second. Noor replies by saying that the race is still on. Bindusar enquires about Ashok, Akramak informs that he somehow fell into a dig. Krupa charya says that he had already said that Ashok was not fit to be in this competition, Chanakya backs up Ashok and says that the race is still not over. Bindusar agrees and says that he wont be surprised if by tomorrow Ashok will lead the race. 😎 (oh yay daddy B)
Precap: everyone is running, Ashok is still stuck there. He gets all the flashbacks of Sushim's taunts, how Akramak tested him to make him eligible for the contest. He raises up and finds some sharp stones and is climbing up the hole with help of those. Meanwhile Dharma overhears a servant saying how Ashok is fell into a dig during the race. She starts to pray in front of Shiv ji. There Ashok is climbing.👏
