Error Parent child Relation !! using awk/sed ???

tempfind.txt file has:
t2589vg 888898 336008 09:15:55 -ksh
mqsiadm 1421774 888898 09:16:48 -ksh

I am searching using 1421774 in the above file tempfind.txt and and trying to get the no. i.e. 888898 [in Blue]. Based on this no. i have to get the first line, where the same no. is there [in Red]. The nos. in Blue has to match with the no. in Red.

That is the process "-ksh" with user id t2589vg that is parent process to "-ksh" of user mqsiadm. And I am trying to get the name of the parent process through its child process id.

How can I do this using awk/sed ???

Please let me know , asap.
Thanks.

NAME
igawk - gawk with include files SYNOPSIS
igawk [ all gawk options ] -f program-file [ -- ] file ... igawk [ all gawk options ] [ -- ] program-text file ... DESCRIPTION
Igawk is a simple shell script that adds the ability to have ``include files'' to gawk(1). AWK programs for igawk are the same as for gawk, except that, in addition, you may have lines like @include getopt.awk in your program to include the file getopt.awk from either the current directory or one of the other directories in the search path. OPTIONS
See gawk(1) for a full description of the AWK language and the options that gawk supports. EXAMPLES
cat << EOF > test.awk @include getopt.awk BEGIN { while (getopt(ARGC, ARGV, "am:q") != -1) ... } EOF igawk -f test.awk SEE ALSO
