Episode begins in the Pandava camp, where Arjun says he will duel with Bhishma.
Virat says that Dhrishtadyumn must kill Drona, and they must have victory on the 2nd day to boost army morale, but Bhima feels that Dhrishtadyumn will need Arjun's help for this task.
Sahadev asks who will contain Bhishma if Arjun is fighting Drona? Krishna tells everyone that there is only one way to keep Bhishma away from the battlefield, by resorting to trickery. Yudhishtira says this is adharm, but Krishna reminds him that the war they are fighting is a result of adharma anyway.
Krishna says only 5 steps are needed to keep Bhishma away from the field and leave Duryodhan unprotected.


Sanjay describes the Pandava's war formation of the 2nd day to Dhritrashta. He says that Yudhishtira has been placed at the back, while Arjun and Bhima are on the front sides, and that this is the Karuncha vyuh (crane formation). Dhritrashta wants to know what formation Bhishma is using against the Pandavas.

Bhishma gives orders to his army, telling them which positions they will be fighting in. Both sides begin fighting once again. Abhimnayu challenges Shalya and they fight with arrows. Susharma challenges Arjun and tells him that the Trigata army is here only to fight Arjun. Krishna smiles and Arjun tells Susharma not to fight with words but use some weapons instead. 😆 Nakul and Ashwathama are sword fighting.
Krishna tells Arjun it is time for the first step in today's victory. Arjun releases an astra into the sky, it looks like a black hole made of lightning! The effect shocks warriors from both armies. Yudhishtira smiles as he recognises Arjun's sign. Drupad tells Yudhishtira to move quickly.


Abhimanyu tells Shalya that he will get an answer to yesterday's trickery. The lightning from Arjun's astra attacks Shalya and he falls out of his chariot. Sanjay tells Dhritrashta that there is fog all over the battlefield and he cannot see anything clearly, thanks to Arjun's astra. Krishna says it's time for the second step, keeping Bhishma and Drona away from Duryodhan. Yudhishtira says he is not ready as his mind does not accept what Krishna is asking him to do.
Krishna details his plan, where Yudhi is meant to attack Hastinapur so that Bhishma will follow him away from the battlefield. Yudhi says the rules of war state they can only fight on the battlefield, and refuses to leave the battlefield.
Krishna reminds him that leaving the battlefield is also a type of war formation, and Yudhi nods in agreement. He orders his charioteer ahead. Sanjay tells a worried Dhritrashta that Yudhishtira is on his way to Hastinapur with a part of his army.


Krishna says it's time for the third step. He tells Bhima to inform Dushasan that Yudhi has gone to attack Hastinapur. Bhima rides off to where Dushasan is sword fighting with Virat. Bhima saves Virat from being killed and Dushasan is shocked.
Bhima tells Dushasan to pick up his mace and fight with him. Bhima tells Virat to help Yudhishtira attack Hastinapur, and Dushasan is shocked hearing this.
The smoke becomes heavy and Dushasan runs off to tell Duryodhan the news. Shakuni says Yudhi is definitely going to attack Hastinapur and Duryodhan tells Bhishma to go after him.


Precap: Krishna says that the last step to victory is when Bhima will kill Duryodhan. Bhima is shown coming closer to Duryodhan.
