Adhi's house:
Paatti talks to Kanchana and asks her to conduct the engagement the very next day. Kanchu says why so soon, after all we have the engagement the next week, followed by the wedding. But Paatti insists and finally says, she consulted a jOsiar and he has said that the engagement had to take place the very next day or untold kashtams would happen in the family. Now Kanchu is convinced and Paatti finally throws in the standard asthram - naan periyava solrEn, kEttukkO..and Kancha agrees. Paatti also maska adicufies and tells her that if Kanchu sets her mind, she could arrange things in a jiffy. As Kanchu leaves, Eashwaran comes there and asks in his false voice why the hurry and then Mams tells him abt Anu going off with a packed bag the day before, when all were out with Kishore and co. for shopping. She tells him that before something drastic happens, they should secure this marriage and also keep a watch on Anu 24 x 7. Eashwaran agrees and asks if she should talk to Anu and Mano but ellaam therinja kezhavi says no, that will only make things worse.
Mano is shown talking to Anu and saying some crap words to comfort her when Arthi walks by and hearing him address the other person as anu, snatches the phone away from Mano. She then yells at Anu for disrupting their life and how this will make Adhi take more drastic actions against their family and asks her to marry the guy her family has arranged. Mano is wild and pulls the phone from her and snaps and tells her she has absolutely no right to interfere. Arthi says she has every right since she herself has been in that situation. KKK comes in, tries to mediate, but Mano doesn't want to listen to anyone. He goes on a tirade against Arthi and tells her that she has no business talking abt their family's well-being when she ran away on the day of Anandhi's wedding and thereby stopped anandhi's wedding, and look, she is still unmarried. Also, you yourself have no life and are not living happily and who are you to interfere in my affair? KKK shouts and says Arthi is his sister and just because he has a girl in his life now, doesn't it mean that Arthi has no say in his life or is she not his sister? Also, all along you were like a mouse, not raising your voice at all and now, just because you are in love, you are yelling at, worse, hitting your own sister? But Mano just flings the phone away and walks off in a huff. KKK cries and says, why did I get such a son? what did I do to deserve such a son? I thought he will be of great comfort to me but it has turned out like this. Arthi goes and comforts KKK..more crying.
Ganga's niece and nephew are playing hide and seek with Vasuki watching over them. The boy Kausik enters Upendra's quarters and hides behind the curtains, disloding a newspaper with a gun hidden in it. The gun clutters to the ground behind the window. while still playing, the boy spots the gun and threatens Vasuki and his mom. His dad comes by, recognises it is a real gun and somehow sweet-talks his son into handing it over and calls up the police. The police come by and he hands over the gun and says he has his suspicions on Upendra, a guy renting from them. He claims to be a dancer but more a mental case and looks disturbs all the time. Also, if you look at his eyes, they are always wild with murder in them. The police ask some standard questions and he leads the way to the quarters. Upendra spots them from the window, hides behind the door. Ganga comes through the gate and vouches for her master and says it is only her athimbEr who is wacko. Nevertheless, the inspector wants to see Upendra. Ganga tells him that the gun was found in a place where anyone could have tossed it and the police quiz Kausik. They go in and Upendra comes out and talks to them. The inspector asks him if dance is his profession and Upendra says, you are wrong, dance is my life and moochu. without it, I will not be there. and tells him that he is staying there temporarily until he could go as a dance teacher to CA. The inspector asks the wacko to come with him to the police station to give a complaint.
After they leave, Ganga walks with Upendra and asks him why did he carry a gun on himself?
Upendra is shocked...
