Laxmibai's men inform Laxmibai that there is a huge boulder kept above the tunnel. A very worried Rao Dulajo tells that they are doomed because there is no escape. Meanwhile, Nelson triumphantly watches the mayhem in Jhansi. Inside the tunnel, one of Laxmibai's soldier's legs gets stuck under a boulder, so she asks Rao Dulajo to remove it. The soldier begs her to carry on but she promises to take him out of trouble and they succeed. Laxmibai finally manages to find an escape route. Hamilton decides to lay a trap for Laxmibai's confidantes and orders that the fort gates be opened so that his soldiers can kill Tatya Tope and the others. However, Tatya Tope and his soldiers fight bravely the British.
