Each pair sits in an area created by a spaceship and then discusses why one should be safe and in the green zone of the house, while the other should be nominated and restricted in the red zone. A mask on the table will decide his fate. According to the red, yellow and green signs, the contestants must make sure to keep the mask in hand to enter the green zone.
The first couple called on stage are Nikki Tamboli and Rahul Vaidya. Eager to escape the nominations, Nikki takes the mask in her hand even before the game begins. Rahul, who then asks her to speak to him, argues by saying that she took the mask before the game starts, therefore she should keep it on the desk and then play it as a chore. Nikki argues saying that if she makes a mistake Bigg Boss will interrupt her and this is his way of playing.
Rahul pleads in front of her. When the red bell rings, Rahul tries to snatch it from him and they fight for the mask. During this, Rahul warns Nikki by saying ‘Cheena-Jhapti hogi’ and after a while he tells her not to play dirty. The wire from the mask breaks and Nikki tucks it into her pants.
All the contestants seem to be against Nikki. Rahul finds Nikki holding the mask for her. Later, Rahul seems to be extremely upset about not giving it a fair chance. He calls it “gutter”. Nikki also responds by saying that she knows how to play and this is how she will do it. It is your choice and you will do whatever it takes to be in the game. He also says that as he is physically weaker than Rahul he came up with this idea.
Suddenly, the whole house turns against Nikki and degrades her for taking that step, while Nikki being sporty Nikki takes the reaction and stands firm, still believing that all is fair in love and war. While Pavitra says Nikki’s attempt is cheap, Naina calls her “gandh”. Naina even says that Nikki should be embarrassed and that she should at least leave the mask thinking of her mother. Naina even says that if the man had done such a thing, there would be a great cry. Nikki says she hid it in her clothes and not Rahul’s and that she doesn’t cry playing the ‘woman’ card in the game.
Bigg Boss announces that Nikki is safe and Rahul heads to the red zone. Rahul claps and congratulates sarcastically.
