Coma, Coma everywhere
(And Comalis galore)

Muhurtham
Manjula reaches home in great agitation. Her husband Kalidas calms her down and saying, ignore what Sivaperumal says, your place is by your mother right now, takes her back to the hospital, accompanied by Kadir.


Sivaperumal insults all of them, and while Manjula stands her ground, he starts raising his hand at Kalidas, who responds in kind. A doctor sees this skirmish and orders all of them out, except two people. Sivaperumal and his mother stay on. Sivaperumal meets the doctor, who says it is nothing but mild hypertension. He bribes the doctor and tells him to say this is a serious case. He wants the nichadartham to be postponed/canceled. He is especially angry at Kadir taking Manjula's side.

Sivaperumal gives some pills to his mother, to be given to Devayani (Bharati's mother). Asked why she needs these pills, he says they are to keep her asleep. He says one of them needs to be by her side at all times to make sure she stays asleep.

Selvi
Let's relieve you of your curiosity first -- nothing happens between Selvi and GJ.

Selvi talks about Piriyan, who has promised his hear to her, and she to him. Now she feels she has betrayed him. GJ portrays a man cheated, mentally asking her to cut the yak-yak and get to bed. But, he has to appear dignified, and he manages with difficulty. Good night, he says.

Ranjini's husband teases her about how Selvi holds the whip hand now, and if she (Ranjini) does not behave, she'll get a seruppadi. Ranjini is furious, but she knows he is right. Next morning, she carries two cups of tea to GJ's room. The door is open, and going in, she finds the two kids sleeping. She is aghast. She calls GJ's name, and when she inquires why the kids are in that room, he loses his temper at her, and her sister, who taunts him also about having two wives.

Ranjini tries to be extra nice to Selvi.

Selvi's dad comes to Piriyan's house and sees him crestfallen. He advises him, in the best traditions of Tamil melodrama, that the best thing he can do for Selvi is to leave town and never come back.

Manaivi
Much action. Kalpana leaves home. Arasu halts her and taunts her one final time -- she says he will one day regret his action and come to her apologizing, but she will not forgive him -- that is his punishment. Then she vanishes. Her parents return, and Arasu gives them a tale about how she left while he was sleeping, without even leaving a note. They swallow the tale, of course.

Krishna Kumar goes over his conversations with Kalpana in his mind. He feels remorseful, and is moved to get ready and go and meet her. He tells his uncle that he needs to go and get her because her life may be in danger. Arivu also agrees, and asks him to go get her right away. Mrs. Tiruchelvam agrees.

When Krishna goes to Kalpana's home, he finds she has already fled. He returns to Sriperumbudur, and despite Tiruchelvam's protest, both he and Arivu head out to look for her.

Nandu comes to Rohini and her mother, and asks them to move to his house. They are up late waiting for the astrologer. He tells them he has been arrested for carrying ganja. When they accuse him of having thrown him in jail, he threatens them saying he can arrest them too -- for what women are arrested for. They comply.
