No, I don't think that was it.

172
00:09:59,333 --> 00:10:01,583
Everything was different
during the pandemic.

173
00:10:03,208 --> 00:10:05,916
It was like everyone sought
shelter in each other.

174
00:10:07,375 --> 00:10:09,458
As if the end of the world was nearing.

175
00:10:11,541 --> 00:10:13,916
Ömer moved in with you
during the time of the pandemic.

176
00:10:15,416 --> 00:10:16,291
Right?

177
00:10:17,916 --> 00:10:20,750
-[man plays guitar in distance]
-[both laugh]

178
00:10:21,333 --> 00:10:23,083
-[Ömer] He's good.
-[Leyla] Whoo!

179
00:10:23,166 --> 00:10:24,250
[chuckles]

180
00:10:25,416 --> 00:10:27,708
Bravo! Bravo!

181
00:10:27,791 --> 00:10:28,666
[Leyla laughs]

182
00:10:28,750 --> 00:10:30,500
[laughs] He's stunned.

183
00:10:31,083 --> 00:10:33,333
-[tender music plays]
-Okay, who's going to cook?

184
00:10:33,833 --> 00:10:34,833
Mmm.

185
00:10:35,333 --> 00:10:37,250
[Leyla] <i>A person's reality can shift</i>

186
00:10:37,333 --> 00:10:40,041
<i>based on the circumstances</i>
<i>of their situation.</i>

187
00:10:40,583 --> 00:10:42,791
<i>During that time, we feared</i>

188
00:10:42,875 --> 00:10:45,708
<i>that our hopes and dreams might disappear.</i>

189
00:10:45,791 --> 00:10:47,750
[chuckles] <i>And never return.</i>

190
00:10:52,958 --> 00:10:55,500
<i>Everything was so different</i>
<i>at the beginning.</i>

191
00:10:55,583 --> 00:10:59,041
<i>The whole world was focusing</i>
<i>on resolving a single problem.</i>

192
00:10:59,833 --> 00:11:01,416
<i>Everyone was afraid of the same thing.</i>

193
00:11:02,416 --> 00:11:06,000
<i>We fought against a common enemy,</i>
<i>and that was encouraging.</i>

194
00:11:11,833 --> 00:11:12,916
[blows]

195
00:11:16,791 --> 00:11:18,791
[Ömer breathes hoarsely]

196
00:11:20,541 --> 00:11:22,000
-[sobbing] Leyla?
-My love.

197
00:11:22,666 --> 00:11:24,250
-I love you so much.
-Oh!

198
00:11:24,333 --> 00:11:27,375
[chuckles] What did you dream about?

199
00:11:28,125 --> 00:11:30,083
To be honest, it felt so realistic.

200
00:11:30,583 --> 00:11:32,166
-[sighs sadly]
-Did I die?

201
00:11:33,166 --> 00:11:34,208
It was your wedding.

202
00:11:34,875 --> 00:11:35,791
Yeah?

203
00:11:35,875 --> 00:11:39,333
[sniffles] You wore your granny's dress,
the one you've always mentioned.

204
00:11:39,416 --> 00:11:41,625
And my hair? Did I let my hair down?

205
00:11:41,708 --> 00:11:43,000
You did.

206
00:11:44,333 --> 00:11:45,666
And Sarp was next to you.

207
00:11:46,250 --> 00:11:47,500
No way!

208
00:11:48,416 --> 00:11:50,541
What made it worse
is that I was your witness.

209
00:11:50,625 --> 00:11:54,208
You should've seen my mouth disappear
every time I tried to speak up.

210
00:11:54,291 --> 00:11:58,125
Then, baby, you looked at me and shouted,
"I do, till death do us part!"

211
00:11:58,208 --> 00:12:00,875
No, but Ömer,
maybe I get to say "I do" to you instead.

212
00:12:00,958 --> 00:12:02,375
I don't want to marry to him.

213
00:12:02,458 --> 00:12:04,041
-Really?
-Of course!

214
00:12:04,125 --> 00:12:05,500
-[chuckles]
-Then what?

215
00:12:06,750 --> 00:12:08,541
[sighs heavily]

216
00:12:08,625 --> 00:12:09,583
You guys kissed.

217
00:12:10,458 --> 00:12:12,041
It was awful, I cried a lot.

218
00:12:13,333 --> 00:12:14,916
[exhales heavily] I got so mad.

219
00:12:15,541 --> 00:12:16,458
That asshole.

220
00:12:16,958 --> 00:12:18,958
Aww, Ömer. [chuckles]

221
00:12:19,041 --> 00:12:20,958
Please stop crying, my love.

222
00:12:21,041 --> 00:12:22,458
It hurts me to see you in tears.

223
00:12:22,541 --> 00:12:24,583
Did that fool Sarp
snatch me away from you?

224
00:12:24,666 --> 00:12:26,041
[both laugh]

225
00:12:26,125 --> 00:12:29,666
I think I must have lost my memory.
How else could I have left you?

226
00:12:30,250 --> 00:12:31,166
[chuckles]

227
00:12:35,208 --> 00:12:36,250
[groans]

228
00:12:36,916 --> 00:12:38,375
[breathes hoarsely]

229
00:12:38,875 --> 00:12:40,541
-I'll tell you what.
-Hmm?

230
00:12:42,041 --> 00:12:42,958
[sighs]

231
00:12:43,875 --> 00:12:44,833
[groans]

232
00:12:45,958 --> 00:12:47,250
Will you marry me?

233
00:12:48,875 --> 00:12:49,791
Hmm?

234
00:12:49,875 --> 00:12:51,666
So someone like Sarp won't take me away?

235
00:12:51,750 --> 00:12:53,958
No, I'm being serious. Will you marry me?

236
00:12:55,916 --> 00:12:56,750
All right.

237
00:12:57,875 --> 00:12:58,708
Are you kidding me?

238
00:12:58,791 --> 00:13:01,291
-[laughs]
-Yes! [groans]

239
00:13:01,375 --> 00:13:02,583
[coughs and laughs]

240
00:13:02,666 --> 00:13:04,625
Are we actually engaged now?

241
00:13:04,708 --> 00:13:06,958
I need to call my parents right now
and tell them.

242
00:13:07,041 --> 00:13:07,916
Okay.

243
00:13:09,083 --> 00:13:11,541
The pandemic ends, and so does the dream.

244
00:13:11,625 --> 00:13:12,833
[lonesome music plays]

245
00:13:12,916 --> 00:13:14,916
I know that under normal circumstances,

246
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:17,416
we would not have made
certain choices just like that,

247
00:13:17,500 --> 00:13:21,041
but at the time, I was still contemplating

248
00:13:21,125 --> 00:13:23,541
our idea of possibly living together.

249
00:13:23,625 --> 00:13:26,333
And before I knew it,
he was already moving in.

250
00:13:26,916 --> 00:13:29,208
Everyone has their own habits
and routines,

251
00:13:29,291 --> 00:13:31,291
but there's a limit to what we can endure.

252
00:13:31,375 --> 00:13:34,833
Passing beyond that
makes things unpleasant.

253
00:13:35,416 --> 00:13:38,125
And when there's only one bathroom
in the apartment,

254
00:13:38,625 --> 00:13:41,125
there's no more room for romance at all.

255
00:13:41,208 --> 00:13:44,833
[laughs] A relationship deals with…

256
00:13:47,583 --> 00:13:50,541
accepting everything about your partner.

257
00:13:52,250 --> 00:13:53,625
[chuckles]

258
00:13:54,625 --> 00:13:56,833
Only you and Mom can make it work.

259
00:13:58,375 --> 00:13:59,708
And nobody else.

260
00:14:01,875 --> 00:14:03,416
[chuckles fondly]

261
00:14:10,125 --> 00:14:11,166
You have…

262
00:14:12,291 --> 00:14:14,416
honestly, set the bar extremely high

263
00:14:14,500 --> 00:14:16,083
for my future boyfriends.

264
00:14:23,291 --> 00:14:24,166
[father sighs]

265
00:14:24,958 --> 00:14:27,000
Are you still deeply in love with her?

266
00:14:27,500 --> 00:14:28,333
Mmm.

267
00:14:29,458 --> 00:14:31,875
It's hard to find the perfect words
to describe our love.

268
00:14:31,958 --> 00:14:34,291
[laughs] Oh, Dad! You guys are amazing!

269
00:14:34,375 --> 00:14:35,500
[both laugh]

270
00:14:36,500 --> 00:14:37,958
-You know what?
-Hmm?

271
00:14:38,041 --> 00:14:40,666
I'm happy we could discuss
what was bothering you.

272
00:14:42,958 --> 00:14:46,666
-I have… spoken for a while now.
-Hmm.

273
00:14:47,375 --> 00:14:49,291
Single chit-chatting.

274
00:14:50,083 --> 00:14:50,958
Detoxing.

275
00:14:51,041 --> 00:14:52,125
[chuckles]

276
00:14:53,750 --> 00:14:55,125
Let's go join them outside.

277
00:14:56,375 --> 00:14:57,208
We're here.

278
00:14:57,833 --> 00:14:59,791
-Ah!
-[Leyla] Buddy, my love!

279
00:14:59,875 --> 00:15:01,291
[Buddy pants happily]

280
00:15:03,250 --> 00:15:05,750
Hmm. Did you finish talking
behind my back?

281
00:15:05,833 --> 00:15:07,708
No, we couldn't start talking about you.

282
00:15:07,791 --> 00:15:09,500
-It took that long?
-Yes, it did.

283
00:15:09,583 --> 00:15:11,583
Okay, it's time for dinner.
The table's set.

284
00:15:11,666 --> 00:15:13,291
All right, we'll be right there.

285
00:15:15,583 --> 00:15:18,125
So, I heard we'd be having a guest soon.

286
00:15:18,208 --> 00:15:20,250
Are you sure? Friend?

287
00:15:23,666 --> 00:15:24,666
Are you kidding me?

288
00:15:25,250 --> 00:15:27,583
No, I'm not. Your uncle invited me.

289
00:15:27,666 --> 00:15:29,291
[father] You can put these on the table.

290
00:15:29,375 --> 00:15:30,458
[mother] Okay, dear.

291
00:15:33,666 --> 00:15:35,125
-Hello, Mr. Cem.
-How are you?

292
00:15:35,208 --> 00:15:36,041
I'll take these.

293
00:15:36,125 --> 00:15:38,416
-Cem, welcome.
-Hello. I haven't come late, have I?

294
00:15:38,500 --> 00:15:40,333
Of course not.
You're right on time once again.

295
00:15:40,416 --> 00:15:42,250
Could that be the famous serial killer?

296
00:15:42,958 --> 00:15:44,500
[Can] Don't mention it. Glad you came.

297
00:15:44,583 --> 00:15:46,291
-Happy birthday.
-Thank you, I appreciate it.

298
00:15:46,375 --> 00:15:49,416
Reyhan, dear, Mahir, dear.
Meet our guest, Cem Murathan.

299
00:15:49,500 --> 00:15:51,458
He's our neighbor and one of our clients.

300
00:15:51,541 --> 00:15:53,458
My sister, Reyhan Taylan.

301
00:15:53,541 --> 00:15:54,958
-Pleased to meet you.
-Likewise.

302
00:15:55,041 --> 00:15:56,625
-Thank you.
-[Can] And her husband, Mahir.

303
00:15:56,708 --> 00:15:58,250
-Mr. Mahir.
-Nice to meet you.

304
00:15:58,875 --> 00:16:01,125
-We actually met each other before.
-That right?

305
00:16:01,208 --> 00:16:04,500
Yeah. I met you quite a long time ago,
so I'm happy I was able to come.

306
00:16:04,583 --> 00:16:06,416
Why didn't you tell me about this?

307
00:16:07,583 --> 00:16:09,166
-Uh…
-[Reyhan chuckles awkwardly]

308
00:16:09,250 --> 00:16:10,791
-This way.
-Go ahead.

309
00:16:12,125 --> 00:16:14,208
Can, look at these bottles
from the auction.

310
00:16:14,291 --> 00:16:16,333
They're all '72s. That's your birth year.

311
00:16:16,416 --> 00:16:17,541
[chuckles]

312
00:16:20,833 --> 00:16:23,250
It really is a great gift.
Thank you very much, Cem.

313
00:16:23,333 --> 00:16:25,750
-You didn't have to get me anything.
-No problem.

314
00:16:25,833 --> 00:16:26,958
I'm glad you liked it.

315
00:16:27,041 --> 00:16:28,000
[Reyhan chuckles]

316
00:16:28,500 --> 00:16:30,541
-[Somer] Cheers, everyone.
-[Can] Enjoy, everyone.

317
00:16:32,041 --> 00:16:32,875
[Somer] Mmm.

318
00:16:32,958 --> 00:16:35,875
Mmm! My gosh, this is incredible.

319
00:16:35,958 --> 00:16:37,666
Come, drink some, Mahir.
So you can taste it.

320
00:16:37,750 --> 00:16:40,125
[sighs] I stay away from alcohol nowadays.

321
00:16:40,208 --> 00:16:42,500
My stomach just doesn't tolerate it
any longer.

322
00:16:42,583 --> 00:16:45,708
-My serving can be for my wife to enjoy.
-I would gladly take it from him.

323
00:16:45,791 --> 00:16:46,958
[men chuckle]

324
00:16:47,041 --> 00:16:49,708
So, could you pick up
where we left off, Cem?

325
00:16:50,375 --> 00:16:54,291
Tell us more about how you… and my dad
were able to meet each other.

326
00:16:54,375 --> 00:16:57,541
Hmm. Oh, that's right.
Uh, you said that we had met before.

327
00:16:58,833 --> 00:17:01,083
It was at a symposium held in Milan.

328
00:17:01,166 --> 00:17:03,166
I was studying architecture at the time.

329
00:17:03,666 --> 00:17:06,083
You were excited to work
on your latest project.

330
00:17:07,875 --> 00:17:08,958
It was in '09.

331
00:17:10,208 --> 00:17:11,875
Yeah, it was 2009.

332
00:17:11,958 --> 00:17:14,500
You had explained
the psychology of buildings.

333
00:17:16,083 --> 00:17:17,333
But you were describing it

334
00:17:17,416 --> 00:17:20,250
as if you were referring
to a woman you loved.

335
00:17:21,166 --> 00:17:23,041
Yes, I remember. Uh, hmm.

336
00:17:24,458 --> 00:17:25,833
I don't remember Milan.

337
00:17:26,375 --> 00:17:27,500
No, my love, you wouldn't,

338
00:17:27,583 --> 00:17:29,458
since you were living
with your uncle that year.

339
00:17:29,541 --> 00:17:32,208
You're right, that takes me back
to our very first summer.

340
00:17:32,291 --> 00:17:35,458
My poor heart couldn't keep up with you.
You were an active little kid

341
00:17:35,541 --> 00:17:37,750
who always ran all over the house,
never slowing down.

342
00:17:37,833 --> 00:17:39,208
I was basically your nanny.

343
00:17:39,291 --> 00:17:41,208
[scattered laughs]

344
00:17:42,708 --> 00:17:44,375
And what project was that, Dad?

345
00:17:45,833 --> 00:17:47,375
Uh, I never completed that one

346
00:17:47,458 --> 00:17:49,708
because so many things
continued to go wrong.

347
00:17:50,250 --> 00:17:52,041
Hmm. Oh, I see.

348
00:17:52,666 --> 00:17:53,791
It's a shame.

349
00:17:54,583 --> 00:17:58,750
Honestly, the, uh… [sniffs] project
was never finished,

350
00:17:58,833 --> 00:18:00,541
uh, because it was quite challenging.

351
00:18:00,625 --> 00:18:02,708
It was only promising on paper.

352
00:18:02,791 --> 00:18:05,791
So then, uh, Reyhan took a job in Tokyo,

353
00:18:05,875 --> 00:18:07,125
and we moved there.

354
00:18:07,208 --> 00:18:11,000

to decide whether to go or not.

00:18:13,875 --> 00:18:17,416
How was I supposed to endure
your absence for so long, love?

358
00:18:18,958 --> 00:18:22,416
[chuckles] You guys clearly have
some stories to share.

359
00:18:22,500 --> 00:18:24,333
[Reyhan] Ah! Yes, a story!

360
00:18:24,416 --> 00:18:26,041
We all have stories to share.

361
00:18:26,125 --> 00:18:27,416
They're all around us.

362
00:18:27,500 --> 00:18:29,416
Our life is a story, isn't it, my love?

363
00:18:29,500 --> 00:18:31,833
-[both laugh]
-Then, a toast to our stories.

364
00:18:32,416 --> 00:18:33,750

378
00:19:33,166 --> 00:19:34,458
You've been quiet today.

379
00:19:35,583 --> 00:19:36,916
I don't think so.

[chuckles dryly]

381
00:19:40,416 --> 00:19:42,625
Can we take a walk? I want to talk to you.

382
00:19:43,750 --> 00:19:45,750
Don't worry about the book
that was written.

383
00:19:46,250 --> 00:19:49,791
Our plan is to prevent Ms. Tuba
from officially printing it.

384
00:19:50,333 --> 00:19:52,708
This week, we'll issue a legal notice
to the publishing house.

385
00:19:55,208 --> 00:19:58,125
It wasn't that,
but thanks a lot for helping out.

386
00:19:59,500 --> 00:20:01,416
Your secrets will continue
to be safe with you.

387
00:20:01,500 --> 00:20:02,708
So you can rest easy.

388
00:20:03,375 --> 00:20:05,875
I suppose one secret
was revealed to us tonight.

389
00:20:07,291 --> 00:20:09,916
How come you never said anything
about knowing my dad?

390
00:20:11,875 --> 00:20:14,416
That's right, afterward,
we didn't get to talk much.

391
00:20:15,208 --> 00:20:16,125
You weren't there.

394
00:20:22,333 --> 00:20:23,291
And you were hurt.

395
00:20:24,750 --> 00:20:25,583
I know.

396
00:20:26,208 --> 00:20:28,833
No, you're wrong. I wasn't hurt at all.

397
00:20:28,916 --> 00:20:31,291
I would only be hurting
if I had cared for you.

398
00:20:32,333 --> 00:20:36,166
But I… don't harbor
any thoughts of you at all.

399
00:20:37,333 --> 00:20:40,666
And to be frank, I couldn't care less
whether you are around or not.

400
00:20:40,750 --> 00:20:41,625
So, yeah.

401
00:20:42,416 --> 00:20:46,666
I think, um, it's good
that we haven't wasted each other's time.

402
00:20:47,250 --> 00:20:48,583
I'm honestly grateful.

403
00:20:49,416 --> 00:20:52,500
I admit, I got curious
about the attraction between us.

404
00:20:54,125 --> 00:20:55,750
Now, we won't be left wondering.

405
00:20:57,958 --> 00:20:59,166
Um, so that's it.

406
00:20:59,791 --> 00:21:02,833
It wasn't… some extraordinary thing.

407
00:21:04,208 --> 00:21:06,291
But a short tryst.

408
00:21:07,791 --> 00:21:10,416
That's why, uh, everything is good.

409
00:21:11,833 --> 00:21:13,083
I won't, um…

410
00:21:14,208 --> 00:21:16,875
be devastated. Um, I'll be perfectly fine.

talking about this with you.

-[Mahir] I'm not the hypocrite.

You're the professional liar.
That's your job, isn't it?

419
00:22:21,625 --> 00:22:23,750
[Reyhan] You love to play the hero
when Leyla's around,

420
00:22:23,833 --> 00:22:26,125
and you don't realize
the damage you've caused.

421
00:22:26,208 --> 00:22:28,916
I've been silent because that is
what you wanted me to do.

422
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:30,250
I'm okay with exposing our mess.

423
00:22:30,333 --> 00:22:33,125
Then tell her
that you are also a Casanova.

424
00:22:33,208 --> 00:22:36,166
Besides, your father's debt
led you to change your last name.

425
00:22:36,750 --> 00:22:38,833
And what makes you think
I won't let her know?

426
00:22:38,916 --> 00:22:41,791
Be honest and say why you don't drink.
Explain that you went to rehab.

427
00:22:41,875 --> 00:22:42,916
How could you lie to her?

428
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:45,208
Tell her you cheated on me
with that bitch.

429
00:22:45,291 --> 00:22:47,041
She talks about some bar you've set.

430
00:22:47,125 --> 00:22:49,541
Why don't you show her
just how low that bar could go?

431
00:22:50,041 --> 00:22:52,208
-[plate shatters]
-[melancholic music plays]

432
00:22:57,208 --> 00:22:58,458
You both lied.

433
00:23:01,666 --> 00:23:03,625
Now I know the farce is over.

434
00:23:06,250 --> 00:23:08,541
That is our harsh reality, love.

435
00:23:08,625 --> 00:23:11,625
Hold on. Did you find out
what happened to them in 2009?

436
00:23:12,875 --> 00:23:16,458
My dad had an affair
with one of his female coworkers.

437
00:23:16,541 --> 00:23:17,625
-[Esra] Oh!
-Oh, he did?

438
00:23:17,708 --> 00:23:20,291
So, he told my mom
after feeling remorseful.

439
00:23:20,375 --> 00:23:22,750
He made a rookie mistake.

440
00:23:23,333 --> 00:23:25,791
And she went to Tokyo afterward.
Honestly, she ran off.

441
00:23:26,375 --> 00:23:28,291
-Of course, she would do that.
-I know.

442
00:23:29,125 --> 00:23:32,375
I would have crushed his balls
before he had the chance to leave.

443
00:23:32,458 --> 00:23:34,166
-[Beliz laughs]
-Ruthlessly.

444
00:23:34,250 --> 00:23:35,958
-[Funda laughs]
-[Murat] All right.

445
00:23:36,041 --> 00:23:37,916
[clears throat] Interesting picture.

446
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:39,208
What did your dad do?

447
00:23:40,041 --> 00:23:43,958
What was the logical thing to do?
My dad left his job and went after her.

448
00:23:44,041 --> 00:23:45,583
And you lived with your uncle

449
00:23:45,666 --> 00:23:48,625
to not get caught
between their disputes, right?

450
00:23:50,583 --> 00:23:51,583
Yeah.

451
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:53,833
I think

452
00:23:54,666 --> 00:23:56,583
that they couldn't get over that incident.

453
00:23:56,666 --> 00:24:00,250
My dad continues to feel guilty,
and Mom is still so furious.

454
00:24:00,791 --> 00:24:03,750
Besides, even the slightest disturbance
can result in high tensions.

455
00:24:03,833 --> 00:24:05,875
Yet they've been together for a long time.

456
00:24:05,958 --> 00:24:08,000
-They could have just left one another.
-[Esra] Hmm.

457
00:24:08,083 --> 00:24:09,541
-Right?
-Yeah.

458
00:24:10,541 --> 00:24:12,916
Maybe I was the reason
why they stayed together.

459
00:24:13,541 --> 00:24:15,125
I don't see any other explanation.

460
00:24:15,208 --> 00:24:17,166
-[Funda] Aww! I don't think so.
-[Esra] No.

461
00:24:19,541 --> 00:24:21,625
I think that my dad…

462
00:24:23,750 --> 00:24:26,750
kept his head down
because he didn't want to let me down.

463
00:24:26,833 --> 00:24:30,250
And it isn't surprising
that my mom doesn't like to fail.

464
00:24:30,833 --> 00:24:32,666
She would rather die
than to end her marriage.

Don't you see?
They still act like everything's fine.

474
00:24:56,666 --> 00:24:59,666
Because they continue to be very prideful.

for crying out loud.
