Kolangal
Abhi still in coma. Money needed for surgery. Bhaskar promised to send the money, but no money has shown up, calls to him are unanswered. Usual panic in the family.

Rajesh goes to an orphanage to deliver some foodstuffs, where he notices Easwaran as one of the inmates. He tries to talk to him, but Easwaran does not reply. Rajesh returns to the hospital, where he tells Karpagam (herself in a hospital room, being fixed a cool drink by Sharada) about seeing Easwaran in such a state. karpagam gets all upset, something Rajesh is unable to understand why. Sharada departs to pay the bill for the operation: she says she pawned some jewelry. Such a simple solution!

Outside Karpagam's room, Tiruvengadam is listening to this piece of information, for a few days, Easwaran has gone missing and no one knows where. Now he wants to trade in this information for some benefit. He heads straight to Adi's house, to commisserate, and drop this bombshell. However, Adi does not give him any lift. He says get lost if you want to talk about my dad. We don't want to know where he is. Tiruvengadam goes away crestfallen.

Meanwhile, Karpagam goes to see Easwaran at the anatahasram. She is talking with him, when Adi, who has out of curiosity come to the place, overhears that she is his first wife. His face changes expression.

Toooodrum...

ARASI
Nothing worthwhile. Nallathambi goes to the public prosecutor to tell her she should make sure Arasi does not get her job back (which is the public prosecutor's job anyway). He offers money, which she turns down. He threatens her, but she is not threatened.

Ganga tells Nallathambi that Kalai has been given a good thrashing by the mother and daughter.

The court case is ready to commence...

Tolkappian is riding in a autorickshaw. a police van carrying Inspector Tilla is right alongside. The two vehicles go side-by-side for a long time, but Tilla, though he stops another auto rickshaw, does not pay any attention to this one. Finally, they go their separate ways. Five minute spent.
When Aarti and Co. had gone through a broker trying to sell Abhi's land, they found some squatters there. Actually, it turns out, those squatters had been placed there by non-other than Bhaskar! Aarti returns to the hospital. empty handed.


Who should arrive at the hospital but Bhaskar! he is a very nice to Abhi's mother, saying that he is happy to advance the money for Abhi's operation. only, he needs a property as collateral, and it would be enough when everything is back to normal, for Abhi to return just the principal. He offers 50 lakhs. Abhi's mother says 10 is enough. He then walks us into the ICU and talks to an unconscious Abhi, telling her how much he is enjoying taking revenge on her and that he is going to completely finish her off. The guy has a natural repulsiveness that fits his role perfectly.

Arasi,
Continuing her diplomatic offensive, Sentamilarasi's mother now goes to Kalai's house. She silences all the in-laws, and says she will only talk to her granddaughter.she once again,berates her forof foolishness in her marriage, and staying onwith these fools. Kalai does not speak, but has tears in her eyes. The worst thing she has done, says grandmother is to give false complaints against her mother. She asks if she will speak truthin the courtroom tomorrow. Kalai answers, I will, and goes back in. Grandmother leaves, and the rest of the family confers in what to to Kalai to keep her in line.

Aishwarya Comes back for a checkup the same doctor is counting rupee notes. He examines her briefly, and telling the nurseto take a temperature, leaves, saying he will come back after his rounds. Grandfather protests is, saying the fever is actually gone up. But the doctor ignores them and leaves Outside, he calls Nallatambi, who chuckles and tells him he's doing exactly the right thing, and that he should once again administer the wrong medicine.

In the hospital, much confusion. The hospital needs 10 lakh rupees to perform surgery on Abhi. Her mother turns on Aarti. If you can, get the money. Otherwise, shut up. Aarti shuts up, (doing us all a great favor). Meanwhile, the seth, after talking to Adi, puts a call through to his son,who is leading the money to Ishwaran. Back to the pavilion, he says. The son, who has just reached the hospital and it is greeted anxiously by Iswaran, tells him he has just received instructions to return with the money.

Easwaran returns home in great anger. He shouts for Adi, who appears on the balcony upstairs. Easwaran goes up the stairsand demands to know what his son has done. Kanchana and her mother come up to see what is going on. She accuses her husband of supporting Abhi against his own son. He says he is only doing an atonement for his son's sins. She continues to accuse him off and undue soft corner forAbhi. finally in frustrationhe says he will tell them why he is concerned about Abhi. His mother-in-law tries to stop him, succeedsthe first couple of times. But, when Kanchana keeps taunting him, he shouts that he will tell them why. This is too much for his mother-in-law, who shouts saying he should not, and then collapses. She is dead.

Adi accuses his father of murdering his grandmother. The cremation gets over, and at the ghat, after having performed the ceremonies, Adi turns on his father, yelling and screaming and lunging at him. Others restrain him. When Easwaran returns home, Kanchana asks him to get out of the house. Adi rants. Easwaran leaves home, and takes a long walk. His daughter spots him walking on the roadand tries to reason with him, but he ignores her and keeps on walking. He reaches the beach.

Arasi
Sentamilarasi's mother, continues her diplomatic initiative. Today she visits the estranged daughter in law, and tries to reason with her, telling her that she has been unfair to Sentamilarasi, who had been so fond of her. The daughter-in-law says she cannot do anything without her brother's consent.

Minor brouhaha, amongst Sentamilarasi's colleagues. Two of them have dropped some uncharitable remarks about their boss (Sentamilarasi) to the inquiry committee. The third, Iman Ali, is miffed at this. An argument ensues, and he tenders his resignation to the police commissioner. the commercial refuses to accept his resignation, saying he does not want to lose an honest officer like him.

Tamarai's father brings Aishwarya to the hospital. She has been sick for a couple days, running fever. The doctor examines her, then leaves the room and calls Nallatambi. He describes the young patient, and Nallatambi is overjoyed to that this is actually GJ's own daughter. He tells the doctor to give some medicine that would actually make her condition worse, and ask her to come back in a couple days. The doctor does so. Nallatambi chuckles to himself, saying to G. J.that he is going to take revenge on him through his own daughter.

Kaveri visits her father in jail, only this time he sees her. He subtly encourages her to kill Sentamilarasi, but to wait until she gets into uniform, after her suspension is lifted.

Abhi still in coma.

Problem of money. Aarti's agitation does not translate to the 10 lakhs needed for operation. Meanwhile, Mr. Guilty Conscience makes his way to the hospital, and tries to persuade his first wife to take the money from him. She wants to take it, but something restrains her. Finally she decides to take it, only to be opposed by Aarti.

Mr. GC (Adi's father) asks for money from a moneylender seth, saying it should be delivered at the hospital. After sending the money, seth is solicitious (an oxymoron) and phones Adi to check if everything is ok. Adi fumes. Says he'll handle it from here.

Meanwhile, police are hunting for the genius who brought the killers right into the courtroom, aka Tolkappian. Till raids his house, is told by Shanti he is not home. They leave. Tolkappian phones and gets latest information from Shanti.

ARASI
Ganga visits the Christian charitable institution where his wife had taken refuge. His father is also there. Both go in and search, but to no avail. Finally they go to the chapel, where the priest tells them she is no longer there. The father tries to browbeat the priest, but Ganga restrains him. When they are outside, (s)he tells her father to get the wife's whereabouts via Kalai, if necessary, by physical means.

At Arasi's house, her mother confides in her grandson, who is pleased at her reconciliation with Selvi. Arasi sees them talking, and extracts the fact that her mother has seen Selvi. Mother spins a yarn about how she gave Selvi a tight slap, etc. Arasi is still very vexed with Selvi.

Kaveri goes to see her father, who finally sees her. She tells him Arasi has been suspended. He says this must be Nallathambi's work.
