- Pandavas go undergo an exile similar to Rama's
- Bhima and Draupadi unleash their angers on the eldest brother, but he remains faithful to his exile and to the will of the gods.
- Arjuna goes off to gain celestial weapons that will come in handy later.
- Bhima encounters Hanuman in exile
- Duryodhana and Karna go to spy on the Pandavas and are stopped by celestial spirits who would not allow it. A war followed, and the Kausavas were defeated.
- Karna deserted
- Duryodhana and much of his court was captured
- Bhima and Arjuna fight and get the prisoners released?
- humbled/embarrassed Duryodhana
- Karna vows to kill Arjuna
- A secret messenger comes and tells the Pandavas of this news
- Indra, Arjuna's father, takes away Karna armour and earrings in exchange for a celestial dart.
- The Pandavas come to a lake and all but Yudhishthira die from drinking after ignoring questions asked by a voice. It turns out the voice is Dharma, god of wisdom and justice. He grants Yudhishthira two wishes-That they should be restored to life and go unrecognized for a year. (their last year of exile is to be in hiding and they have to do another 12 years of Kausavas find them)
- They return to INSIDE THE CITY and take up various roles
- Yudhishthira-teaches playing dice (so he can practice)
- Bhima-cook
- Arjuna-teaches dance
- All became loved by the monarch
- Bhima secretly kills King Kichaka for attempting to rap Draupadi. This causes the Kausavas to raid his kingdom. The raid conveniently falls on the last day of the exile, so the Pandavas turn on the Kausavas and were taken as prisoners of Kichaka's son
- Both Duryodhana and Arjuna go to Krishna, but Krishna gets first pick because he was humbly bowing while Duryodhana pompously sat on his bed. Arjuna choses Krishna over an entire army.
- Duryodhana tries to capture Krishna, but it only angers Krishna and he takes his godly form
- The battle seems equal sided, but it is clear who will win.
