Correct Answer: about what happens that night.
Solution : The error lies in the fourth option.
Explanation : The use of the present tense happens doesn't align with the context, which refers to something that occurred in the past. The correct verb form is happened to maintain the tense consistency in the sentence, as it utilises the past tense, which matches the past context of the events.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: None of them, apart from Rohan and Shilpa, had heard Mohan talk about what happened that night.
