- RESOLUTION
- Khan Sahib, Jawad Sahib's father, has a literacy center built in Amal's village. It is a publicity stunt for him to get more votes for re-election and the residents won't attend. Jawad Sahib sends Amal there once a week to help with the ruse. One day, while there, Amal confides in her teacher that Jawad Sahib had a man murdered and she knows where he hid the body. The teacher agrees to pass the information onto his family who are lawyers.
- Jawad Sahib and his father are arrested for the killing. Nasreen Baji closes up the estate and lets most of the servants go. Some are upset because they need the work. Others, like Amal are overjoyed to regain their freedom. Nasreen Baji admits "I thought about keeping you ... But you belong with your family. Your debt is forgiven." Amal can't believe she is finally allowed to return home.
- Amal is able to return home to be reunited with her family: her mother, father, and sisters, along with Parvin and her best friend Omar. She still fears what might happen in the future if Jawad Sahib is released. But she thinks, "Today I was free, and even if I didn't know what the future held, I knew I was going home. And right now, in this moment, this was enough."
