Rudra joins the Cyber Crimes Division to lead the effort to protect Garuda, but stopping the threatened piracy does not seem to be his priority. The Tamil Rockerz's challenge has riled up fans of Athiradi star Adithya, the lead of ‘Garuda’.

Rudra meets the team. Dhayalan’s origin story is revealed. Young impressionable fans of Athiradi star Adithya are manipulated with the intention of shaking the tree to see what falls out.

There is panic on the streets of Chennai as Adithya’s fan club raids the illegal CD/DVD market. Rudra becomes a puppet master, pulling strings from behind the scenes to gather information. A rift grows between old friends Kiran and Arun.

A new development offers Rudra a direct line to the motive behind the Tamil Rockerz targeting ‘Garuda’. Ghosts from Madhi’s past climb out of their graves. The conflict between Arun and Kiran escalates.

It's all hands on deck as the cyber team roots out the network of contributors used by the Tamil Rockerz. Madhi gets entangled in the grapevine as gossip around ‘Garuda’ pushes him further into trouble. Rudra and the team set out on a manhunt armed with only part of a clue.

Madhi’s deal with the devil forces him to circumvent the cyber team’s InfoSec guidelines, giving the Tamil Rockerz an opening. Rudra must fix a leak and catch up before the situation gets out of hand.

Rudra and the team reach the endgame. Implications surrounding why and how he was brought into the case force Rudra to reconsider a lot of things. Madhi learns that even dead snakes can bite.
