BD returns home from office and calls out for Bobby. Papaji teases him on that and Babli informs him that Bobby isn't present at home. BD feels disheartened and leaves for his room. Bobby returns from the market with gourd and pumpkin, for preparing BD's office lunch next day. BD gets mad at having pumpkin and gourd daily for office lunch(which he hates to eat) and complains as to why he can't get to enjoy delicacies once in a while. He complains to an amused Shivay who tells him that He happily accepts whatever food devotees offers Him and never grumbles. Bobby spots BD blabbering to himself and suggests him to get a checkup done while Shivay gets amused and teases him continuously. BD literally shooed Him off and Bobby prayed to God to cure her husband. Shivay decided to stay back to protect BD from upcoming troubles.
Next morning Bobby hands over a long list of cosmetics for herself to BD at the breakfast table and they share a sweet romantic moment. BD gets mad at the thought of expenses and Bobby keeps comparing him with Khanna Sahab' who even gets things for his neighbors. Outside his house, he sees Mithailal taking orders from his wife and laments on their fate of being husbands'. Shivay appears and BD gives Him a lecture on the helpless state of hen-pecked husbands who are unable to meet their wives' demands. Shivay tells him that he knows nothing about his wife, but will know with time. Back at home, Bobby complains to Papaji on BD's miserly ways but Papaji assures her that he will certainly fulfill her wishes if she had asked him for anything.
At a local cosmetic shop BD bargains with the shopkeeper to get Bobby's cosmetics at the cheapest prices possible, which irks the shopkeeper as well as other customers. On his way back, he meets Govardhan and together they make fun of each other's hen-pecked conditions. When he returned home, Bobby disapproved of his shopping. BD lost his cool and things took an ugly turn when he started accusing Bobby of burdening him with her demands all the time. Bobby felt insulted and refused to accept anything from him henceforth. BD retires to his room to find Shivay singing. He tells Shivay that every common man dreams of spending a fairy tale life with his spouse but when reality strikes he realizes that those dreams are too expensive for him to afford. He tells Shivay that he has two paths in front of him - either he fulfills Bobby's demands by hook or crook or he stops asking anything from her; no expectations, no quarrels.
Next morning BD refuses to take either breakfast or his lunchbox to office. This hurts Bobby and BD tells her that henceforth he wouldn't expect anything from her since he can't meet her expectations equally. Later in the day, Govardhan arrives and notices an upset Bobby. She breaks down in front of him and Govardhan gets angry on both BD and Papaji for making her upset and decides to set everything right. On the other hand, BD goes to a roadside vendor to have lunch but finds a couple happily enjoying their meal and feeding each other along with loads of PDA. BD gets mad at them for keeping the vendor busy in serving them and returns without having his lunch.
When BD returned home from office, he found that Bobby has left for her parents' house and left behind a letter for him stating the same. Papaji told him that there are two ways to avoid quarrels between spouses - either you fulfill all your promises or you don't promise anything at all. The kids want to have Chinese food and BD happily complies. On their way back, BD notices decked up women praying in the temples. Shivay tells him that it's KarwaChauth, the day when married women fast from dawn to dusk praying for the long life and well-being of their husbands. He tells him that Bobby too prayed for his well-being in the morning and is still fasting while he enjoyed Chinese food with the kids. He tells BD that women never openly state their wishes or sacrifices while men shout from the rooftops as to how much they care for their wives or spend on them. BD regrets letting his male ego get the better of him as Shivay tells him that Bobby only wished to dress up for him on this special occasion and hence asked for the cosmetics. He enters the house to find it brightly lit up with lamps. He finds Bobby back in the house, dressed gorgeously. She completes the rituals. They apologize to each other for their behavior and the episode ends on a happy note with the couple sharing a romantic moment.
