Shaurya passes out from his gunshot wound, sending Anokhi into panic. When Haider limps over, Anokhi demands for the car keys, insisting she's the only one who can drive. So with our two soldiers in the back, Anokhi races down the road. Her voice shaking, she asks Haider if there is a hospital nearby.

Haider pushes her to just go to the airport, but Anokhi won't risk Shaurya's life. They reach a roadblock, and she looks forward with fire in her eyes. "Do you know what my favorite movie is?" she says. "Mad Max: Fury Road." Before Haider can react, Anokhi plows right through the signs.

Soon, they screech into the Islamabad Hospital lot. Once Shaurya is taken in, the nurse informs them that they need blood for a transfusion and fast. Upon learning Shaurya's blood type, Anokhi immediately volunteers. "Anokhi," Haider warns, "if you don't go now, you won't be able to go back!"

At the airport, the track team's coach learns that Anokhi has yet to arrive. And she's not coming - she's sitting in a hospital bed, giving blood. When it comes to board, the team has no choice but to leave without her. Ahir and CEO Iqbal watch them leave, with Ahir worried as to how Vineet prevented Anokhi from going.

Speaking of Vineet, he's already heard of his men being shot down. When he hears that the gunman was a real sharp shooter, his mind goes to Shaurya. He orders a soldier to get him the Company Five's firearm logbook.

Finally, having all the blood they need, the doctors take Shaurya into surgery. Before getting treated himself, Haider hands Anokhi a bag of Shaurya's belongings. Looking inside, she finds Shaurya 's now broken cell phone and blood-spattered uniform. To her surprise, there's one more thing: her passport picture.

Touched that Shaurya kept an extra picture, after he refused to take one together, Anokhi silently cries. Once Shaurya is wheeled out of the OR, alive and well, Anokhi's eyes then fill with happy tears. Thankfully, according to the surgeon, they were able to prevent damage to a major artery. Phew.

That evening, Anokhi sits by Shaurya 's bedside, watching him sleep. She tells him that for so long, she would only love and hate herself, protect and abandon herself; she's not used to having someone else by her side. Now she's scared that something will happen to him. "Does this mean you've become a special person to me?" she wonders.
