- A wealthy merchant in the town reports that his precious necklace—an heirloom—has gone missing the night before an important ceremony. The merchant accuses the household help and threatens harsh punishment unless the necklace is recovered by morning.
- Tenali Rama visits the merchant at the request of townsfolk and offers to find the necklace within a day. The merchant, skeptical but desperate, agrees and promises a reward.
- Tenali interviews the household but finds everyone anxious and each person gives contradictory statements. The cook claims to have slept early; the maid says she was up late preparing; the gardener was on duty until dawn; a porter insists he never left the courtyard.
- Tenali examines the scene and notices small, telling details: a faint trail of dust on a windowsill, traces of jasmine on a servant’s sleeves, and an unusual ash smudge near the merchant’s jewelry box.
- Using a clever ruse, Tenali arranges a staged announcement: he tells the household he will test all servants by sprinkling a special powder that stains anyone who handled the necklace. He then discreetly sprinkles ordinary flour along the likely paths and watches reactions.
- When the servants gather, a nervous maid instinctively brushes flour from her sleeves, revealing a small glint of metal and faint perfume that matches the necklace’s scent—a distinctive jasmine oil used on family jewelry. Tenali confronts her gently; she confesses she took the necklace to pay a debt but panicked and hid it.
- The necklace is recovered from a hollow in an old courtyard pillar where she had concealed it. Tenali persuades the merchant to show mercy; the maid returns the necklace and offers to work to repay the debt. The merchant accepts, grateful for the recovery and Tenali’s counsel.
- The episode closes with Tenali playfully teaching the townsfolk a moral: compassion and clever thinking solve more problems than anger, and quick judgments can cause unnecessary harm. A comic moment follows—Tenali outwits a pompous official who had doubted him, leaving the town laughing.
