Laxmibai walks away in disgust to her palanquin. Nelson barges into Gangadhar's court and introduces himself as John Nelson, a special agent appointed by Lord Dalhousie to tackle the mismanagement in Jhansi. Nelson accuses the king of not punishing the Rajputs for spreading anarchy in the region. As proof, he shows the murdered body of Ross holding Samar Singh's golden locket presented by the king. Gangadhar is compelled to sign Samar's arrest warrant. However, Gangadhar warns Nelson to arrest Samar only after his sister's wedding. Meanwhile, at Samar's village, the pre-nuptial rituals are on. However, the guests get shocked when a dead bird falls into a bowl of turmeric paste meant for the rituals. It's deemed a bad omen. On the other hand, Nelson breaks his promise to Gangadhar and asks Malcolm to unleash terror in Samar's village. Unaware of the recent developments, Laxmibai leaves with Tatya Tope for the wedding and stops at a temple on the way. She prays to the goddess to give her an heir for Jhansi. Back at the palace, Gangadhar apologises to Laxmibai's statue for signing Samar's arrest warrant. Meanwhile, Nelson attacks the groom's father and then reads out the arrest warrant for Samar. He says that it has been signed by Gangadhar. Everyone is stunned.
