Kadir's Follies, Down Memory Lane, Velu's Back!

Muhurtam
Sivaperumal has 'kidnapped' AK's and Anand's daughter (she has a complicated name which escapes me) , but in a nice way, stuffing her with sweets and toys. His plan is pretty complex. He calculates that AK will call Kadir for help (why not the police?). When Kadir comes, it would be time for him to go and fetch Devayani and Bharati so they can see Kadir and AK together. One might think there are so many variables involved, and the timing factor, so that this would be rather difficult to make happen, but no one has gone bankrupt betting against the lunacy of Tamil serial plots.

So what happens? Sure enough, AK calls Kadir, who answers reluctantly. Instead of getting to the point, she first blubbers, then finally tells him her daughter is missing. Once he gets there, they waste time commiserating, and then she faints. Meanwhile, Sivaperumal goes and fetches mother and daughter. They are just in time to see him carrying AK into the bedroom (she has fainted).

Devayani (Deva yanai would be more appropriate) has seen enough. She asks Sivaperumal to cancel the marriage. He gives himself a silent high-five.

Selvi

Ranjini sizzles as she spits out her anger at Selvi, but in a veiled way (I've always thought her acting was pretty good, though I don't know the actress' name). Selvi and GJ's dad feel insulted and walk away. Selvi realizes the connection between Maya's visit and Ranjini's anger, and knows Maya has filled something in Ranjini's head.

Nothing at all. Tamarai's parents come over to GJ's place. It is Tamarai's birthday. They remember how it was celebrated last year.

Manavi
Arivu and Rohini sit down to breakfast. Arivu's mother is insulting to Rohini. Divya walks in, and with great familiarity with Arivu's mother, who gushes all over her. Tiruchelvam suggests to Divya that the prospective inlaws don't seem to be very nice people, an d they should perhaps look elsewhere. She (the sense I get is she wants to take revenge at Arivu by making a terrible life for herself) says no, she likes the bridegroom. Tiruchelvam says fine, then we'll fix the wedding date. She speaks with an bit of needling to Arivu and Rohini.

Velumani gets into Hamsaveni's house, beats up her aunt, and grabs the baby. Hamsaveni is helpless. He says he is going to hide out there for some months.

Inspector Pallavan comes over to Krishnaveni's house, asking if they might be able to persuade her foster-mother (Ratnam's wife) to give evidence against Velu. They know that he is the one who killed Ratnam. Krishnaveni says she can only do so if Velu is first arrested. Her foster-mother would be scared to do so otherwise. Pallavan says he has gone missing, and asks if he might be with Hamsaveni. Krishnaveni says she doesn't think so, but...
