Part-1:
Episode opens with voice-over giving brief introduction to the story: its a story of Indian Royalty in 1945 that noone has heard of as yet.
An English couple arrives at a royal palace, in vintage car. (They are photographers) Attendant ushers them inside the palace. They are spellbound by grand interior of the palace.
Rajmata is getting ready. Her lady-in-waiting Yashoda brings royal necklace for her. Rajmata tries the necklace but noticing wrinkles around her neck, puts it back & adjusts her hair so as to cover the wrinkles. Yashoda says, you inherited this royal necklace and wear it on all special occasions. Rajmata says, not necessary that tradition would be followed & asks for pearl choker necklace. Yashoda says, people will admire your head held high in pride, than noticing wrinkles on your neck. Rajmata takes the pearl choker off & covers the wrinkles with her hair.
Yashoda informs the English couple that Rajmata would be here soon. Till then you adjust your camera. Attendant asks if Rajmata would like to have the photoshoot done in British style. Yashoda brushes him off that everyone copies Rajmata's style; what you believe to be British style is essentially Rajmata's style only! She wants herself to be presented in different style every time. The photographer tries to focus his camera but is unable to locate the center. Rajmata arrives there & says, the one, everyone's eyes will be glued at is here now!
The photographer praises her, this was the center I was searching for! Photoshoot begins. Suddenly the photographers halt noticing wrinkles on Rajmata's neck. Rajmata asks them to carry on citing Yashoda's words: people will admire the Queen's head held high in pride, than noticing wrinkles on her neck. After the pic is clicked she leaves. Yashoda informs the photographers, Rajmata has to attend her son Rana Indravadan Singh Dev's welcome ceremony. He is coming back home after 6 yrs. The attendant asks for Photo session with Ranaji too. Rajmata refutes saying, the less we appear in public, the more curious & excited people will be, to know more about us.
A vintage plane lands & Ranaji gets off the plane. He is given Guard of honor with 21 Gun salute shoots. The gun shoots remind him of gruesome times of war & he becomes restless. He gets into the car for arriving home.
A girl is shown riding bicycle. Security guards are informing about road diversion due to procession in Ranaji's honour. A guard asks the girl to detour. The girl says she wants to go to library. Guard says, library is closed. Girl says, it opens at 10. I come here everyday. Guard asks for entry permit. Girl gives him librarycard with a man's pic. The guard doesnt accept as the name is Shyam. Girl says, am Shyama, card being old, part of spelling is faded.
Guard doesnt relent. Librarian saves the situation by introducing the girl as Shyama - daughter of Seth Govinddas. Guard lets her go. Girl thanks the librarian uncle. He calls her Gayatri & asks her about using her Brother's librarycard. Gayatri says, you know my mother will never allow me get librarycard. I come here w/o her knowledge. She asks librarian about road diversion. He says, Ranaji is coming home today & day after tomorrow, a ceremony is organized in his honor. Gayatri is elated that Ranaji is back unscathed from World War-II. Librarian says, you seem so happy as if he is your kin. Gayatri says, people consider the King as their own. Librarian tries to explain her the reality but she says, not all rulers are same. My heart says, our Ranaji is different.
Ranaji is greeted by people on his way. Timebomb is planted in his car. Car halts as some children are playing on street. A man greets Ranaji.
Part-2:
Gayatri returns books to the librarian. He is surprised that she read all 3 books in a week. She says, I finished reading them 2 days back; will borrow 4 books this time. Librarian allows & asks her to make it quick as roads are going to be closed due to royal procession.
Two shifty looking men are waiting for Ranaji. The elderly man is Ranaji's Uncle & younger his son - Ranaji's cousin. Son asks his father whether Ranaji would have waited for him like this, had he been coronated post Ranaji's father's death. Father says, you're my son Prince Lakshraaj & royal stock but like me you too will always remain a prince. First my brother was the King & now his son. Accept this reality. You arent destined to be King but must swear allegiance to your State.
Rajmata feels sad looking at her late husband's portrait. Yashoda informs her Ranaji's room is ready & she can check the arrangements. Rajmata says, RanaSahab would be so proud today as his son has returned victorious from World War-II. Today not only as Queen but as mother too, I want to thank God for protecting my son during war. Ranaji's success has made Singh Devraj family so proud!
Part-3:
Timebomb is ticking as Ranaji's caravan is moving ahead. His evil Uncle & his son & others are waiting for him. The bomb explodes near them, leaving the car on fire & killing/injuring the troops.
Gayatri is selecting books in library. Two kids come there. Gayatri asks them not to make noise in library. The little girl tells her, Aunt is very upset as you didnt iron her saree. Boy says, you didnt coiffe her hair either so all are looking for you. Gayatri says, where she wants to go all decked up. Boy exclaims you dont know! Ranaji is coming! Girl says, his royal procession will pass through our street as well - In a royal chariot drawn by six horses.
Hearing this, Gayatri gets excited as she hasnt seen Ranaji before. She rushes & bumps into a chair & hurts her leg. The kids ask her why is she in a hurry. She denies being excited for Ranaji's arrival & goes with kids.
At bomb explosion site, wily Uncle & his son are shocked as thru the clouds of smoke, Ranaji emerges on a horse. He climbs down and greets an elderly person awaiting to welcome him.
Precap:
Gayatri & her friends are on roof; watching Ranaji's royal procession. She is leaning on planter placed on the parapet. The planter falls off & breaks in front of the horses. Scared, the horses neigh sharp & go wild. Gayatri & her friends hide. Ranaji gets up to control the horses.
