Lord Dalhousie gets anxious hearing about the revolt arising in his army, so he decides to use the enmity between the neighbouring states of Orchha and Jhansi to his advantage. Hamilton asks him to fuel the bitterness between Ladai Sarkar, the Queen of Orchha and Laxmibai. Meanwhile, John Lang informs Laxmibai that the Queen of England has rejected her appeal, so Laxmibai willingly accepts the verdict and promises that a united India would create a revolt that would drive the British out of India. However, she is disheartened to see the malfunctioning ammunitions in Jhansi and is informed that Ghaus Khan makes the best cannonballs. On the other hand, while Ghaus Khan fires the cannon to test it, Hamilton watches him and quietly puts a part of the wreckage inside the Orchha border.
