Episode on Saturday, March 8, 2008

The boys approach Arjun’s tent near the window to peek secretly inside.
Arjun thinks Prithvi should have come back by now.
One of the boys light a torch from a camp fire.

Prithvi and gang are returning back.

Poisonous fumes are spread into Arjun's tent through a gap by the boys with the help of the smoke. Arjun collapses to the ground.
The boys are waiting to take action outside, has our smoke taken affect, they ask each other, it must have lets go! The boys run into Arjun’s tent quickly with out the guards noticing, they see him lying there unconscious. They have an idea and empty a chest full of clothes and drag Uncle into it and close the lid. The boys leave the tent by cutting an opening from the back side so nobody sees them leave. They drag the chest out.

Sanyo is walking back to her palace, her father is vigilant outside. She greets him, Father!
He stares at her, no need to explain anything, Vaishalli has already told me the whole story. They look at each other. Why did you go out like that? We were getting very worried about you. If some thing had happen to you? Why was it necessary to see the puppets?
I was bored sitting in the palace whole day and night, I am sorry.
You will not be able to go anywhere out of the palace hence forth, tells her father.
I won't, she goes to her room.
Chachaji is observing the situation suspiciously.

The boys continue to drag the chest, till they get to a lake. There they dump it into the water.
GOOD- BYE Uncle! That’s the price for finding us out. Nobody will find out about us now, they are confident. The chest drifts away with the water currents.
The 3 enter the camp. They find Arjun missing. I will ask the guards, tells Pundir.
They investigate in the tent and noticed the fabric cut at one end of it. They also notice the tracks made by a chest pushed outside. The guards say they didn't see anything at all nobody came out of the tent.
Prithvi decides to follow the tracks.
The tracks take them on a long path till they reach the lake, they shout Arjun! Arjun! They all run across the lake searching and shouting his name repeatedly. They finally notice a chest floating in the lake, a piece of garment is hanging out of it. They quickly recognize it as Arjun’s. Prithvi immediately takes a dive into the lake and swims towards the floating chest. Prithvi pulls the chest towards the shore. They all lift it out and open the chest Arjun is inside it. They help him get out. Are you okay Arjun? They ask.
Cough! Cough! He comes back to consciousness.

Again Chachaji has come to Jaichand, reluctantly he asks him, if you don't mind I have to tell you something please understand what I have to say.
Tell me I’m used to it.
What I think, is that Sanyo has told you a made up story. I doubt any dacoits took her in the first place.
Why would she lie? Asks Jaichand irritantly.
Don't get angry with me listen, how did she come home safely think about it? And without injuries like cuts and bruises, she didn't even have any expressions of fear or worry when she came .
Tell me clearly!
If you don't do anything about this soon you will repent, warns Chachaji to Jaichand.
No Chachaji it’s not possible!
Its time for you to put vigilance on her 24 hours/day, warns Chachaji.
Means we have to keep a detective on her, says Jaichand.
You don't worry about it! I will arrange it on my own, you don't have to waste your energy on work like that. I am here, informs Chachaji to him.
Sanyo tells Vaishalli how happy she is.
Of course you are, I can see it.
I was so worried before, but now Prithvi has told me that he would ask my father for hand in marriage. If father had found out I had met him he would kill me.
And you know Pratha's marriage ceremony is there and he has invited me to attend. I simply don't know what’s going on with me now I am going crazy! Maybe due to love it’s driving me wild, she tells Vaishalli.

Prithvi asks Arjun who did this to you? Somebody made me unconscious and dumped me in this situation. I didn't see the person. But I am sure that Chandu and Nandu did this because I found proof, some of their jewelry.
They think it’s a coincidence.
It’s not a coincidence, its true! Arjun is defiant.
You are wrong!
No! I am not, Nandu and Chandu are the ones, they have been sent as Ghori's secret detectives.
You are wrong! Prithvi insists.
No I am definitely sure about it.

Chachaji has arrived in some other village. He reaches a hut and enters it. In the room is the ladder at the base of the floor that takes him to the basement into a secret passage. Many dacoits are there. Chachaji approaches one of them. What is it? What, have you come this night we have already made all the weapons? No I have come for that special weapon, you know about it. Oh! Yes my daughter, yes she is specialized in fighting 10 people at a time. Nobody can defeat her. You want any demonstration any doubts? She is introduced to Chachaji. He tells her he wants her as Rajkumari Sanyogita's bodyguard temporarily but the real aim is to eliminate her unsuspectedly, afterwards.
What will I get for it? She asks Chachaji.
Any price you ask.
Done, so I am your Princess’s bodyguard from now on.

In the morning they announce that somebody tried to kill our uncle, and what did he do to deserve that? What enmity is there? Luckily we were there to save him, thank God that he is alright, tells Prithvi out loud. The boys are watching and listening. Who did this? Somebody asks.
Prithvi goes on and says I think I will soon find out who it could be. Actually a boatman saw a person last night. He has called me now, he must be waiting for me. I must go now tells Prithvi, take care of uncle.

Maharaj! Maharaj!
What happened? Prithvi asks.
We found two guards dead, just recently assaulted few minutes ago, says the other guard on duty. One of them says they saw some movement here. The boys grin while they observe the developments. How did this happen, asks Pundir. That’s what I'm asking replies Prithvi. Looks like the spy has come here too, first in the palace, then here.
Definitely the spy has an eye on Prithvi.
Now we have to keep a strict eye on everybody, tells Prithvi.
Sanyo is worried and asks among the confusion is some body trying to kill you?
No says Prithvi.

Vaishalli is worried as Sanyo is taking a long time and must return soon. Vaishalli had sent the guards to search for her, but they have returned empty handed she further scolds them for not finding her. Instead they reply that they will inform Jaichand. Vaishalli gets angry and tells them to repeat the search thoroughly.

What are you thinking Sanyo?
If only you were not King.
Why? What difference does it make?
Lots of difference, you would not have enemies and conspiracies tells Sanyo, and I don't want to lose you nor father. My father hates you, and I have to select one person only.
I know you will select your father, Prithvi replies. He kneels and tells her everything is going to be alright. One day you will have to accept the reality.
When he comes in front of me my voice disappears, replies Sanyo.
I was joking, why is jungli billi scared.
As if it was so easy, love and war has to be separate, I have to go now.
So early?
Father will find out of my absence then.....
Let’s go I will drop you, till Kannauj, one day I will really see you in Kannauj.

Jaichand is fast asleep, Chachaji comes to his quarters and yells wake up! Wake up! Maharaj wake up!
Why are you waking me up in the middle of the night! Jaichand says annoyingly.
Its bad, It's about Rajkumari Sanyogita, she has been kidnapped, she's missing. Chachaji tells the details.
What! What are you telling me? I'm telling you the truth, I'm telling you the truth, believe me.

Before Sanyo leaves, she meets Pratha and tells how happy she has become. Pratha invites her to the wedding and warns if she doesn't come the wedding will not take place.
Prithvi tells don't worry I will get her to come forever and ever.
Arrangements to take Sanyo back to Kannauj have been made. Pundir offers protection to them and says he will accompany them on the journey, its dangerous we will also come with you no matter what.
What ever you say, replies Prithvi to his 2 buddies.

Come on now Nandu, how will the three stop us now? They spy on Prithvi and the gang behind some bushes, see them all leave. They will never find out about our conspiracy on Prithviraj. Uncle(Arjun) is watching them carefully and approach the boys, what happened not in bed asleep? Sleeping problems?
We were disturbed and thought that we would get some fresh air and take a walk.
In the night? It’s very dangerous to walk alone like that, you better take the guards as company for your safety, warns Uncle to the boys, you never know what can take place nowadays.
No, its okay we prefer to go back and sleep, tells the boys to Arjun/Uncle.

Sanyo, Prithvi, Chand and Pundir are on the journey to Kannauj.
Prithvi is sitting with Sanyo in the carriage, while Pundir/Chand are on Horses.
Prithvi tells her, exactly whats the problem you never change always make a run from your Palace gates. At that moment the carriage wheel hits a stone, the carriage tilts and Sanyo falls on Prithvi's shoulders. She moves away on the seat.

The boys head for the tent and sleep. Arjun starts to look for clues leading to the dead guards. They died in this area near these trees, he goes around and looks down on the ground. After some continuous search he stumbles upon a shimmering object it’s a button. Arjun picks it up, it doesn’t match the guards uniforms nor looks like any of our garments, he thinks.
Arjun comes back to the boys’ tent to investigate, he sees them sleeping peacefully and comments on how they are so sweet and innocent, very special. Instantly while looking at them, his eye catches attention on the same jewel that he had found moments before in the boy's ear. It’s not a button but an earring. The jewel in his Arjun’s hand and the jewel in his ear are practically matching perfectly. They are MGhori's detectives? These children? No! How can it be! Arjun looks in dismay. I must get this info to Prithvi at once. Arjun leaves the tent.

The boys were awake observing Arjun/Uncle and get up. They are worried about their secret now.
They both go out to search for the uncle to kill him.

On the carriage, Sanyo asks Prithvi, so you never remembered me all these years?
I never forgot you one moment.
Then why didn't you come?
You were the one who told me to get out of your life.
So then you went away just like that? asks Sanyo.
We have arrived to our destination announces Pundir.
Prithvi gets down form the carriage and helps his lady down too. He bids her farewell.
She is in tears, take care of yourself also.
Why you cry when you leave?
Because I cannot live with out you, Prithvi.
They hold hands. Sanyo makes an exit and releases her hand from Prithvi's grasp.
Prithvi is reluctant and doesn't want her to go.
Sanyo goes and looks behind. Prithvi watches as her figure disappears ahead into the night.
The 3 return back to the camp at Devi Temple on individual horses.
