Tumhari Pakhi: Pakhi ousting-schemes' hatched by Lavanya, Anshuman and Maaji

Anshuman sits in his room holding his head wondering about the turn of events in his life and suddenly Pakhi walks in with some eucalyptus oil to massage his head.

Pakhi massages Anshuman's head

She asks him to lie on the bed saying that she is his wife and should be able to read his needs from his face. Hesitatingly holding himself tightly he lies down as she massages his head. With a smile written across his face he falls fast asleep slowly as his body relaxes.

Next morning, Pakhi walks in to see Anshuman spread across the bed fast asleep. She sees his hand touching the ground and tenderly holds it to place it on the bed, but her hand gets trapped under him. With love shining out of her eyes she stares at him fondly. She walks away and within minutes Anshuman wakes up and heads for a bath. With just a towel wrapped around his bottom he gets embarrassed to see Pakhi stare at him. Pakhi naughtily peeks from within her fingers and tells him that she has seen him from the mirror.

Lavanya enamored by Naina

Lavanya is taken aback as she is jostled awake from the recesses of sleep because of the screams and cries of a child. She walks out of the bedroom and sees Girish having tea with his bua. Upset at Bua's programme for a long time, Lavanya chances to see a small baby girl held in the arms of a maid. She walks close to the child to fondle her closely, crooning sweet nothings to her. Bua tells Lavanya that the baby will be staying in same house as her. Suddenly Lavanya gets a shock as the baby breaks a glass vase.

The lost master key

The master key guy from the company comes and makes the new key and hands over a bill of Rs. 10,000, shocking the daylights out of her. Anshuman is busy on a call from someone as he sees a worried Pakhi flit across the room. She tells him that in her village they could get the same work done in a few hundreds and regrets the excess expenditure made by her.

Suddenly Maaji walks by bringing the original keys leaving Pakhi woebegone. Getting an opportunity to brag, Maaji says that the rest of the amount Pakhi has left will be used to run the house for the next 6 days.

Lavanya grins in the office as she remembers that the limited amount of money Anshuman had handed over to Pakhi will finish and she will fail in the challenge. Her failure will be her departure for sure, thinking about this Lavanya and Anshuman rub hands in glee. As he thinks that Pakhi will return after losing, Pakhi muses that she will run his house in the amount handed over to her for sure and not let Anshuman down.

Pakhi checks out the budget prepared by Maaji and gets shocked when she sees the whopping sum. She decides that now the house will be run according to her, and she will not follow the pattern running before. She remembers the way Anshuman saying that wastage of resources is wastage of savings and decides to check out the detail purchases of the house personally.
