Kolangal
Aditya is all upset about Anu's tantrum. Kishore is her future husband and my friend, how can she treat him like this? He storms to her room to scold her, but meanwhile, Kishore comes back, with 10 Buddha figures to replace the one he accidentally broke. She is embarrassed to be in this spot, in front of her mother, grandmother, brother, etc. In Mano's house, Mano's boss arrives and asks for Mano. When told he is not home, he says Mano had asked for 10000 rupees as his mother was sick. His sister is shocked but does not reveal it to the boss. After he leaves, sister and mother worry about what is going on. Anu is lying awake still trying to piece together the Buddha statue that broke. Her grandmother softly enters the room, and tells her she knows of her involvement with Mano, and says she should forget him, because there is a lot at stake, particularly family harmony. She seems convinced.
Upendra is leaving with his passport, etc., when he runs smack into a police barrier, where the cops are holding up a station wagon containings thugs hunting for Upendra! When the cops see Upendra, they forget about the station wagon and chase him. He has escaped, but dropped an envelope with Abi Constructions name on it...

SELVI
Puja escapes from the hospital and finds herself in some kind of a deserted orchard (funny how they can find deserted hospitals, orchards, etc. in the middle of Madras, but this is serial-land, remember). An impassioned chase as Amar spots her, then drags her by her hair (Duhshasana is never far away) to his father's place. There, a mini-drama is staged, where the Andavan pleads for him not to harm her, he shoves Andavan aside and yells at him, all of which gives Puja the impression that Andavan is on her side. Then he says he will let them both go only if Puja signs some papers (not clear what they are). Andavan persuades Puja to do so, and once she has done so, father and son exchange high-fives, revealing to Puja the depth of the old man's perfidy. She is horrified. Andavan's acting is real, as is Amar's. Excellent stuff. Leaving her behind with Karthan as a guard, they go to the office to meet Tamarai, and tell her about her drug habit and show her these papers (presumably some kind of confession).

PENN
Deepa is in Manohar's house. Sivadhanu turns and greets her. It is revealed that he is working on her behalf, because he has seen how Manohar has ruined her family. He says Manohar's mother was a good woman who was killed by his father's activities and son's character flaws. Sivadhanu was devoted to her as a servant, and still sought her forgiveness for what he was doing to Manohar. Deepa is determined that he should be driven mad, a goal Sivadhanu endorses, for all the rotten things he has done. She gives him the photo of another friend of Manohar, Ravindran, who was also involved in her molestation. Sivadhanu asks how her sister was, and Deepa replies that she was no longer living, and adds that because of her, her sister had died.
Solaiappan brings another cab company guy to his office, and briefs him on what should be done. They go to Bharani, and the other guy says he immediately needs eight cabs for long term contracts. Solaiappan asks Bharani for a cut, and Bharani readily agrees.
At Ranga's home, Chitra has induced Karthik to rob grandfather's bureau to abstract the jewelry. Just a bet to test his daring, she says. Deepa observes some hanky panky. Meanwhile, Karthik, after many tries, opens the bureau, and after stashing away some bundles of currency for his own use, finds an old photograph of Ranga with an infant child, the same one her father fished out to show her on that fateful anniversary a few episodes back...
