In the previous episode of Maari, Maari threatens Tara and warns her to mend her ways. Disturbed by Maari’s words, Tara and Jasmine meet Gorakh. Sankarapandi mocks Gorakh when he tells Tara about a special ritual to kill Maari and her unborn baby. To prove his powers, Gorakh informs Tara and Jasmine of invoking Maya Mohini, a negative energy, to harm Maari and her baby. Accordingly, Gorakh slits his wrist and chants a few mantras, and summons Maya Mohini, leaving Tara and Jasmine shocked. Sankarapandi is smitten by Mohini’s beauty. Gorakh sees Maari’s photo and instructs Mohini to kill Maari and her baby. Mohini assures Gorakh that she will return victorious. Gorakh and Tara watch Maari closely through a magic mirror. Back at Maari’s house, Maari senses something amiss when the garland from the deity’s picture falls. As instructed by Gorakh, Mohini reaches Maari’s colony. She knocks at Maari’s door and stages an act of being chased by a few goons and seeks Maari and Surya’s help. Unaware of the ploy against them, Surya and Maari invite her into the house.
In the next episode of Maari, Sankarapandi is confused and questions Gorakh when Mohini fails to kill Maari. Thereafter, Sankarapandi is overjoyed when he sees Mohini strangulating Maari in her sleep, but to his dismay, he realizes that he is dreaming. Maari is disturbed to see Mohini standing before her. Mohini lies to Maari she is starving and requests her to give her some food. Sympathising with Mohini, Maari looks for food in the kitchen, she calls out to Surya and tells him to bring food when she does not find food in the house. Tara and Jasmine are happy when Mohini cleverly sends Surya out of the house, and eagerly wait to see Maari’s end.
Mohini tries to stab a sleeping Maari, but Maari opens her eyes. Mohini lies to Maari that she is feeling thirsty and asks her to give her some water. Maari worries when Surya fails to return with the food. After going a little further, Surya manages to pick up food for Mohini. Meanwhile, Mohini once again tries to kill Maari but fails once again when Surya returns with the food. Maari serves food to Mohini. Sankarapandi panics to see Mohini eating voraciously. Mohini pretends to thank Maari for letting her stay and offering her food. Mohini thinks of a plan to send Surya out of the house, to kill Maari.
