Feb 6

KOLANGAL
Abhi is in her office, as Bhaskar enters.  She asks him what has been going on in the office.  How come she was not informed of such a huge event as the theft golf a gigantic sum on money.  He gives a feeble excuse, saying that he had just brought the money from the bank, and had stepped out of the office to wash his hands after eating lunch.  When he returned, the money was gone.  She says, all of that is irrelevant.  You'll were in charge and you're sure to have taken care of it.  As such, I am going to hold you responsible for the money.  He starts to protest, but she ignores him.

Easwaran is at the temple, where Karpagam has called him.  She says Abhi's problems have become too much to bear.  Easwaran asks what he can do to help, and adds that he has, in his old way tried to do as much as possible without Abhi coming to know of his role.  He speaks a few kind words to Karpagam and then she heads off.  Why this scene?  God alone knows, which is why it was located at the temple.

Rest of the story is at Gunga's house. Tirumalachari's new step- grandson is playing with his own.  As he is running, he knocked over Tirumalachari's newspaper, for which Tirumalachari gives him a few slaps.  His mother rushes in from the outside and drags him away, not able to bear this insult to her son.after she is gone, Ramachandran speaks to Tirumalachari and tells him that the best way to make Gunga takebackethe lawyers noticeis to speak to her boss, that is, Rajamani Madame.  Tirumalachari ponders the suggestion.

ARASI
 Sentamilarasi is standing at the ocean, more relaxed than she has been in recent weeks.  Her husband, Kartikeyan, notices the change in and remarks upon this.  She agrees.  She says a huge burden has been lifted off her shoulders.there is still on motherboard and, which too, she holds will resolve itself.  He tries to ask what it is about and probes whether it has to do with some professional work.  She says you can think as much.  He tells her about his case, and mentions that the key witness was not able to take the stand she had to be rushed to the hospital.  He mentions that it is G. J.'s wife, but does not mention the name.  Therefore, Sentamilarasi does not realize who the person is.

Govind, G. J.'s old sidekick, and erstwhile manager of the medicine factory, has been alternately bribed and threatened by G J. and Nallatambi to say before the court that it was all Tamarai's  show, and he was merely an employee.  The judge asks, in that case if you had no executive powers, although you were a manager, why even employ you?  And why did you not quit if there was nothing to do? Govind replies, rather sheepishly, that he needed the money to feed his wife and kids.  The judge remarks that he can tell whether the witness is lying or telling the truth.  He dismisses the witness.

Back at Selvi's house, she returns home with Yogeswaran, and discovers that Kaveri is missing. Rombatoomuch tells her that GJ picked her up and took her out.  Just as she is saying this, but child returns home, carrying a cell phone!  Her dad has given it to her as a present.  As she enters her mother's room, the cell phone rings.  It is G. J. he wants to speak to her mother.  The child gives the phone to her mother, who is furious (well acted, it shows in the face), and refuses to take the call.

At Niranjan's place, he is looking through some papers, when he discovers a life insurance policy.  On closer examination he finds that a premium over 12,500 rupees has been paid.  He wakes up Ceylon Mani and asks about it.  She says yeah, it was I who set up the policy.  I expected you to bring home a salary, and when you didn't, I decided to take steps on my own.  He asks why she denied it when he had probed whether she was the one who had stolen the money from his bag.  She says, if you had asked me if I had "taken" the money, I would have said yes.  But you asked if I had "stolen" the money, which I never felt I had, because the money belongs to us.  How can you steal something that belongs to you?  All this hairsplitting is too much for her husband, who is so upset that he decides to sleep on the floor.
