KOLANGAL
Rajesh and Guru stagger to a phone booth, where Guru, with the Rajesh in extremis twitching, manages to reach Aarti and inform her of Rajesh's suicide attempt. She interrupts a regularly scheduled quarrel with her sister in law Anu to rush the hospital, where Rajesh and Guru are scheduled to reach. Meanwhile, Guru, after making the phone call, is frothing at the mouth (maybe emulating the director), and slowly it dawns on them both that they might have drunk each other's sarakku, Guru imbibing the poison and Rajesh the soma. They reach the hospital, where they give the usual, "can't say anything for the moment but let us hope for the best" assurances. The muslim shopkeeper who has accompanied them has meawhile called the cops, suspecting that some foulplay is afoot. Chennai's finest arrive shortly, an inspector with three constables in tow. As per standard procedure, the inspector starts laying about Rajesh, accusing him of attempting to murder Guru. Guru's parents come, and the mother also points to Rajesh, and also that he is wearing Guru's ring (why, is not clear). Finally, Aarti reaches, and persuades the inspector not to drag her 'husband' to the police station. Inspector leaves, the three cops remain to guard Rajesh.
Abhi takes a strong line, refutes Ganga when she supports Rajamani madam that the 7 flats be sold at a loss. She says people are accusing Tolkappian, but she aims to get to the bottom of it all.

The funeral takes place. GJ finally breaks into tears. Pandian has sent someone as a funeral attendant who whispers to GJ that any mention of Pandian will bring retribution. When Clouseau later asks GJ why he kidnapped Andavan, GJ says he did not. Clouseau applauds his strength of mind.
Selvi welcomes Dileepan back. He has been released for lack of evidence, case dropped. He says he will go back to Sri Lanka (talk of illegal immigration in America, here is a whole serial based on nothing but), but everyone, Niranjan, Tamarai's father, etc., say he should stay and win here. Selvi says don't compel him.
Last scene, the figure in black, who killed Karthan, now descends into the underbridge where Karthan was hidden.

Ranga gets married to brother in law. She is most apprehensive about her status, and the signs are ominous, as he enters the wedding bed with not the customary milk, but a bottle of something else, and proceeds to drink. The three kids are sleeping in the bed. He gets them to sleep on a paai on the floor, which he spreads first, and then clears the bed. As he comes close to Ranga, she pulls out a long knife which says whe will not hesitate to use if he comes near. He laughs, saying she need have no fear on that score, I only wanted you as a mother to my children, for which deep thanks. He then explains that he put the children on the floor because he always sleeps next to them, and that's where he intends to sleep, the bed is all hers. Ranga is deeply moved and mollified.
Badri is back. Kala tells Ranga to tell him their child is dead. She does so. But she pours out her woes to him, as he listens silently.
