It's time to check in with the old acquaintances. Karan drops in to see his mother, who is a bit surprised to see him as up until now they thought he was dead. Divya is also home, and she races downstairs to see her beau. Karan reminds her that they are true lovers, and something as trivial as death couldn't come between them. Ravi chimes in his two cents, and says that even if their father won't bless her at the wedding, Ravi will take on that responsibility.

Mom is feeling a little tough, so she says she hopes that Mathur comes home to see this, but Karan says she should keep quiet for now. Karan explains that he is part of a team of three men fighting for a just cause - to rid the nation of terrorists. Jai shows up out of the hallway and says that their actions haven't made them popular with the police, so it would be best for now to keep their whereabouts discreet. When they have achieved their goal, then the truth will be revealed to all.

We cut to the police station where Renu's father is all pissed off. He is in Mathur's office and is currently reading him the riot act over all of the violence in the city that seems to be beyond the police force's capabilities to halt. He accuses Mathur of going easy on the search due to his son being one of the accused. Mathur takes great umbrage at this idea, and tells him that he's not pulled any punches in his search, and has tried everything to find those responsible. He just simply doesn't know where they are. Renu's Dad tells him where one of the gang's hideouts can be found, so a large number of cops heads over to check it out.

We find ourselves in another Vague Rocky Canyon Area, only this one sports an impressive number of rusty barrels. The cops form a perimeter on the high ground while Mathur goes in alone to look around. I would have thought that the Commissioner of Police might not do these searches personally, but here we are. He spots a figure seated with his back to him, so Mathur calls out Ravi's name. The man stands up, but it isn't Ravi - it's Ranga. He and the other gangsters come out and giggle at the cops, and Bhujang reveals that he has trapped them all right where he wants them. There's a little bit of explanation here as to why Bhujang changed his name from Bhairav - when he stopped attacking villages and moved up to national-scale crimes, he changed it. Nothing too exciting there. Oh and I forgot to mention that anytime Bhujang speaks, there's a booming echo effect applied to his voice. No one else gets that, because they're not the Main Bad Guy.

Anyway, Bhujang tells them that they're the ones that are in trouble, and points out the large number of men he has stationed on the opposite side of the canyon thing, and they're doing a fine job of covering the area. Bhujang tells Mathur that he'll be using him as bait to trap The Tridev that's out to get him. We see Mathur locked into a cell as Bhujang and Renu's dad gloating over this little victory. They are confident that this is a sign of things to come.

We join The Tridev in their warehouse hideout as they watch a news report that makes them out to be dangerous criminals. Seeing that the public will likely be against them now, they discuss their next move. Ravi thinks there will be no problem in finding Mathur, as he knows where all of Bhujang's hideouts are. Karan thinks that this is something Bhujang would take into consideration, so he's betting on a new base. Jai thinks they should pay a call to Bhujang's lapdog, The Minister (that's what we'll be calling Renu's dad from now on, so please make a note of it!).

They all show up in The Minister's house and threaten him with bodily harm if he doesn't give up Mathur's location. The Minister thinks on his feet, and says that he knows they're the ones that have actually kidnapped Mathur, and they want him to confess to the crime and get in trouble. He tells them the worst they can do to him is kill him, and he is ready to die for his country! He would rather do that then admit to a false accusation!

At this moment, about two dozen cops come running from all directions and point their guns at Our Heroes. The Minister tells the police that these are the men that they're looking for in conjunction with all the unpleasantness of late, and they should be taken away! That's precisely what happens. We see The Tridev locked up in a holding cell, looking macho and ever so determined.
