The penultimate episode of the series begins with Anmol in a flashback. He is seen swimming, playing football and generally living his best life...until he meets with a car accident. Then we see a montage of his current life. We see him wake up, get to his wheelchair, work out, and get dressed. Then he streams a match while abusing his opponent. The opponent turns out to be Dimple. Dimple is disgusted.

Dimple and Rishi decide to meet at 5 o’clock for class on text message. They arrive at the class location before everyone else. Sid Sir and the rest of the students eventually get there. Sid Sir asks Dimple to share her latest idea. She explains it to him. He finally approves her idea. Dimple is ecstatic. Sid Sir then warns her partner Harsh that he must help her with the app if he wishes to score any marks. 

Anmol is late for the class. He says it is because he went to the washroom and got late. Sid asks him to leave. Anmol throws a tantrum. Sid politely asks him to leave again. Anmol is provoked. He begins to explain that there is only one washroom in this huge campus for the disabled and that too remains closed at times. Due to the lack of proper infrastructure, he ended up being late. He sums it up by saying that he might be disabled but he is not sorry for his condition. Sid allows him to stay for the class.

Dimple and Rishi work on the new AntiSosh app in her room. Dimple appreciates Rishi’s designs.

Rishi is a bit hesitant, but he asks Dimple if she’ll go on a date with him. Dimple confesses to him that she really likes him, but she has come to this institute with some goals. She doesn’t have the capacity to prioritise a relationship right now. She wants to focus on her career. However, she mentions that she likes spending time with him. So she would like to chill with him only as ‘friends’.

Zeenat comes to Sid and expresses her change of mind. Now she doesn’t want to make the youth slang app but wants to go forward with her partner, Anmol’s idea. She wants to make a game application with him. Sid is alright with this as long as the app is unique in some way.

Anmol is annoyed with Sid’s suggestion. Krish however feels that this time Sid has a point. Otherwise, Anmol’s game app will be equivalent to the game in Dimple’s extravagant application.

Dimple gets ready for her ‘non-date’. Celina and Namrata totally disapprove of her outfit. Then they dress her up in some nice western clothes and apply make-up on her face. Dimple is ready to go. She goes to Rishi’s room.

Dimple and Rishi go to watch a movie. Dimple is really impressed with the venue. 

Then they leave for dinner. Dimple has decided the dinner place. Rishi is unaware of it. Dimple is amused by the fact that the restaurant is run by a single woman. As they drive towards the place, Rishi realizes that it’s his mother’s restaurant. He is unwilling to go there for some unknown reason. But eventually, Dimple convinces him. 

She gets a call from her mom. Her mom is of the impression that Dimple is out on a date, but she promptly clarifies that this is not the case. She shares this with Rishi who tells her that it feels like a date to him. Dimple is now in the moment. She mentions that she hasn’t ever kissed anyone indicating that she’d like to now. So they kiss. 

As they talk, Rishi’s mother appears. Dimple had no clue that it was Rishi’s mom’s place. His mom also mentions that Rishi is not at all like his dad with whom she is separated. Dimple is upset that Rishi did not share any details about his family with her. Rishi drops her back to the hostel. 

Dimple enters her room to see Celina with a guy. She rushes out in embarrassment and Celina follows. Celina apologizes for not locking the door. Dimple is a bit confused. She confronts Celina - she thought Namrata and Celina were bonding. Celina looks confused. Dimple tells her what Rishi told her and asks Celina to not disclose it to Namrata. 

While going to the washroom, Dimple bumps into Anmol in the corridor. Anmol as usual uses a lot of cuss words. Dimple loses her mind this time. They get into an argument. Dimple ends up betting with him. If she loses the League of Legends championship, she will have to do the entire coding of Anmol’s app. If Anmol loses, he will delete his ‘Twitch’ account and apologize to all the females he has abused while streaming his game.

The episode concludes.
