Kolangal

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.
