AMBULANCE
[cell phone chimes]
-[Ali] Hello. -[Barbo] Hey, I'm here. Come down, bro.
An ambulance to ride to the airport? Are you nuts?
No, this is what we're using for the documentary.
-Come on, you're gonna be late. -Okay, I'll be down in a sec.
[inhales sharply]
[Nil] I'll go get help, okay?
Help! Sir, please, help.
She can't breathe. There's something wrong.
[Leyla gasps]
She collapsed while we were talking. I think she choked.
-Leyla. Leyla, can you look at me? -[labored breathing]
[Ali] Look at my eyes. Very good.
[Leyla coughs, gasps]
[coughs, exhales]
Here.
Good, just breathe slow.
-[breathing] -[Ali] That's it.
-[cell phone ringing] -Doing great.
[Leyla whimpering, breathing]
[Ali] Nice and easy.
[Leyla sighing]
Excellent. You feeling better?
-I'm late. I need to go. -She needs to be at a hearing.
-No, she needs to go to a hospital. -No. Will you help me, please?
This is important.
[panting]
-Start the car. -[Leyla gasps]
Here. Here.
-[gasps] I'm dizzy. -You're okay.
-[grunts] -Which courthouse?
-Kartal Courthouse. -[Ali] Kartal.
[Nil] Okay, let's go.
THANK YOU, NEXT
[rock music playing]
[Cem] Thanks. Thank you so much.
-[officer] Have a good night. -Sorry about this.
[car doors closing]
[car drives off]
-What's going on? -Nothing important.
Really?
Two cop cars came to your place, running lights and sirens.
We increased security since a race is coming up soon.
Gece needs tight security.
[inhales]
We're all a little tense with the excitement for the race.
Some of the workers
had a minor problem,
but it's resolved.
You sure about that?
Mm-hmm. I'm sure.
Do you know someone in need of a good lawyer?
-[Cem chuckles] -[romantic music playing]
I do, yeah.
Me.
And how can I help you out, Mr. Cem?
Whichever way you'd like.
[indistinct chattering over police radio]
[music fades out]
[cell phone chimes]
GOOD MORNING, LEYLA. ARE YOU STILL AT THE AWAY GAME?
[chuckles softly]
WHY DID YOU ASK IN GROUP CHAT, JERK?
DON'T THEY ALREADY KNOW YOU SPENT THE NIGHT AT CEM'S?
ESRA: OH! YOU STAYED AT CEM'S?
FUNDA: YAY!
YOU'RE A JERK, SARP
[chiming]
IS CEM WITH YOU?
HE'S SLEEPING
TAKE A VIDEO OF THE HOUSE AND SEND?
[cell phone chimes]
[Buddy panting]
All right, my boy, I'll take you in a minute. Be patient. Huh?
[cell phone chimes]
Let's take a look at your sugar daddy's house.
[playful music playing]
-That's the most Cem Murathan house. -[cell phone chimes]
HUBBY
[Murat's voice] But where does Robin sleep?
[cell phone chimes]
[chiming]
TOO COOL. IT NEEDS A LITTLE OF YOUR WARM TOUCH
DON'T BAD-MOUTH IT!
LEAVE THE GUY'S HOUSE ALONE
Okay, my dears, kisses to you all. We'll see each other at the office.
[phones whooshes, chimes]
[Esra's voice] Heading to Ankara today with Funda and Mr. Can.
[Murat's voice] Sarp, come by after work. I'm at home with Doruk.
-Aww, Buddy. So adorable. -[Sarp's voice] Got a kid today as well.
[cell phone chimes]
[Funda's voice] Tomorrow, I wanna hear everything, with details.
-[sighs] -[phone whooshes]
[music ends]
-[paws clacking] -[grunts]
[Buddy pants, barks]
Okay, how about we go out once I wash up? Gimme a sec.
[grunts]
[Turkish pop music playing]
[exhales]
[music ends]
[Cem] Selim.
-My brother. [chuckles] -I thought so.
-He was such a handsome guy. -Hmm. [chuckles]
-Good morning. [laughs] -Good morning. [laughs]
No photos of your father though.
[Cem] Hmm.
I'll show you them.
[Leyla] You actually look a lot like your dad.
Well, in terms of character, I'm more like mother.
When did your father pass away?
Long time ago.
You try some of this jam?
[Leyla exhales]
I haven't. What kind of jam is it?
Hot pepper.
[Leyla] Hmm.
Cem Murathan's hot pepper jam.
Let's see. Let's see.
Mmm! That's actually really good.
-[chuckles] -[Leyla] I love it.
So far we've been together 24 hours.
And interestingly enough, we have had zero incidents.
Except… for a midnight visit from the police.
That doesn't count.
If you say so, Cem.
[sighs]
[gentle piano music playing]
You still never answered my question.
What question's that?
It was last night.
I said I wanted to marry you.
Was that really a question?
More like…
like a statement of your intentions.
You won't be happy unless I'm kneeling in front of you.
-Is that it? -No.
-No. [chuckles] -Yeah, calm down, huh?
No rushing this time, Cem.
All right.
But I'm serious with my intention.
I know that.
[piano music ends]
"I don't wanna be the fourth victim. I'll never be one of his corpses," right?
"He's got red flags waving all over him."
-"I'll never be with him." And what now? -Enough, enough.
Okay, in the past, I may have said a thing or two, but…
But bungee jumping seems like a good idea.
Ugh, this is love, Şeyyaz.
I'm in love with the man. What can I do?
Every day, I fall more in love with Cem.
[exhales] Adorable.
[laughs] No, don't start making fun of me.
You really need to slow down, princess.
You were only recently hurt.
[exhales] Right.
You're right. I know.
Why is this guy so obsessed with marriage?
Leyla, take it easy. You're still just getting to know each other.
Uncle Can, I'm not saying we're getting married tomorrow.
[Can] Well, make sure the day after tomorrow is clear too.
As you, instead of me, will go to Ankara later today, darling.
-I'm going now? -Hmm.
-Her heart stopped. -[laughing]
No, I'm not saying I'm gonna marry him right away or anything, but, you know…
Hmm. He's playing hardball. He wants a wedding.
I can respect him making his intentions clear.
At least there's that.
You need to last at least three years together, according to Mom.
If you get past that, marriage is no issue.
-[laughing] No! -What?
In three years, Leyla will be 33. And I'll be 36.
Say they marry in three years.
Won't your mom say they need some time without kids?
Mm. Two more years, we'll call that.
Yeah, then before you know it, you're pregnant, and then you give birth,
and suddenly, you're 40.
Well, obviously, that's what freezing your eggs is for.
-Yeah, right… -Hey, Sarp, you at Ömer's?
I'm ringing the bell, but he's not coming to the door.
[doorbell rings]
Looks like a home visit. The police car is here too.
Okay. Just make sure Ömer takes him all the way inside.
Don't just leave him in the garden, okay? Please.
Oh, it was open. Okay. I'll take care of it. No worries, huh?
-Mind turning off your phone, miss? -Just a moment. So sorry.
You can hang up. It's okay. I'll take of this. Bye-bye.
Sarp, thank you, really. Kisses for Buddy. Bye.
-[Funda sighs] -[cell phone chimes]
Hey, Cem, uh, we have a meeting to get to right after the flight.
We'll be stuck in endless meetings pretty much basically all day long.
Uh, we'll get to the hotel room later tonight.
I'll call you when I check in to my room. Love you.
[phone whooshes]
Don't let him get used to updates like this. He'll never leave you alone.
-I'm fine, Esra. [shushing] -[Esra] Hmm?
Aww, it's been forever since it was just the three of us.
-I know. I'm so excited, you guys. -[Funda squeals]
Ömer, Buddy delivery.
My instructions are very specific.
Ömer, come on, I gotta go.
[Buddy barks]
Huh? Ömer?
Oh, hey, boy.
[Sarp] Ömer.
Dude, you okay?
What happened?
[laughing]
"What" indeed. What happened?
[sighs]
Hey.
[Ömer sighs]
What's wrong?
[sobbing] I don't think I'm okay.
-Hey, bro. It's okay. You're okay, man. -I'm not well, bro.
How is she?
-54.7. -[cell phone ringing]
Yes, Defne.
Your love affair is overshadowing our investments, Cem.
-Mm-hmm. -What "mm-hmm"?
-Our stocks are tanking. -Just regular market noise.
Don't worry about it.
Something like this is really very damaging for us.
[Cem] They'll have moved on by next week.
Cem, you're not even listening to me.
Defne, dear, best wishes to you. See you soon.
[exhales] The only thing he can see is Leyla.
He wants to marry Leyla.
You think so?
Mm-hmm. Cem has his heart set.
Glad for him.
[cell phone chimes]
LOCATION SENT
ANKARA AIRPORT
[gasps]
Feel any better?
Huh?
[cell phone chimes]
WE'VE LANDED. WHAT DID YOU DO? DID YOU HAND OVER BUDDY?
Made some coffee if you want.
-Where? -Over there, in front of you.
YES! DON'T WORRY
PHEW! YOU'RE THE BEST
Yes!
[slurps]
Anyone else coming? Like Balım or someone?
-There's nobody else. -Okay.
[Ömer sighs]
-Dude, you know what? -Hmm?
[sighs] My biggest…
pride was this job I had--
No, job I thought I had in the bag.
Queen and Crown, you know who their biggest shareholder is?
Kosovalı Holdings.
[Ahmet] Meaning, Oya Kosovalı.
Meaning, Cem Murathan's mother. They got you this job.
And on Cem's insistence, I made you a partner.
This is how you thank them now, huh?
-This is how you thank them? -Just wait a minute.
[exhales]
Cem Murathan's the one who made me a partner?
[gasps]
[sighs] That's great.
Cem Murathan deliberately had me sent to Dubai.
He wanted to get me far away from Leyla.
Ömer, this isn't a conspiracy.
-[sighs] -Hmm? What then?
Well, I tore the contract up.
Fired the boss next.
He fired me first though.
Then I just…
[snorts, sighs] …started drinking.
Yeah, I got that.
And then?
[Ömer] We're here. We're here.
I'll be right back. Just don't go anywhere.
No! Come--
[door rattles]
Cem Murathan!
[distant dog barking]
Thanks a lot!
You took everything from me.
What the fuck, Ömer? Really?
Tsk. You're smiling?
-[Ömer exhales] -Are you a child or a total moron?
I was drunk, man.
[indistinct chattering over police radio]
-Ömer Cenker? -[Ömer sighs] Ah, fuck me.
Um, officer, I'm sorry. I completely forgot.
[officer] You violated your judicial control order of house arrest, sir.
[Ömer] Don't do this, please. Fuck's sake.
You know you should be in jail right now, right?
I know.
Yeah, uh-huh.
[exhales]
Mert, hey, a friend of mine is in big trouble.
Man, you don't get it. Cem is a really big deal.
He has important friends in important positions.
He saved me.
I was kept out of jail by Cem Murathan's grace.
-[sighs] -Did you see the prosecutor?
Yeah, I did.
[Sarp] And?
Apparently, I owe my life entirely to Cem Murathan.
He told the cops what happened, and they said it was humanitarian.
The verdict?
I'm still stuck here. See?
I can't even go out there anymore. Just the backyard.
-Got it. -[Ömer] I'm so restricted here.
[sighs]
You're such an idiot, dude.
-[sighs] -Does Leyla know?
[Cem] Good night.
Did you make me a partner 'cause of Leyla?
No, dumbass.
You won't bother her anymore with this or anything else.
Please, Ömer. Let this be the last time.
-Pull it together. -Fuck you.
Asshole.
I went there to settle the score with the guy, and now I owe him even more.
Well, uh…
It seems like you've gotten away with it,
God willing, of course.
Do not tell Leyla about this though.
-Okay? -Okay.
[upbeat music playing]
[exhales] I'm starving. I'm just gonna hop in a quick shower.
Something I'm doing.
Eating a giant bowl of spaghetti, so no weirdos interfere with me.
-Okay, Esra. -That's fine, honey. Whatever you want.
I'll be having french fries anyways.
[Esra] Ooh!
-[Funda] Whoa! -[Esra] Wow.
Looks like your flowers arrived before you, Leyla.
[Leyla] It looks like that. I don't see a card though.
-[Funda] No, the flowers are the card. -[telephone rings]
-Yes. Hello. -[woman] Hello, Miss Leyla.
-First of all, welcome to our hotel. -[Leyla] Thank you.
Your dinner reservation for the evening has been made at Chez Bertan, ma'am.
A chauffeur will be picking you and your friends up before dinner.
I see. Okay.
[soft jazz music playing]
[Funda sighs]
I asked you both if we could cancel this, didn't I?
I told you to cancel it. You didn't, and here we are.
Mm. It's a really nice-looking place though.
-Why are you making that face? -[Esra splutters]
-You're making a face. -[Esra groans]
You're doing it too. What the hell?
[exhales] No, my love, I'm not making a face, but I just…
[sighs] I suppose I thought that we could… the hotel bar looked really cute.
I thought maybe we'd grab a couple drinks
and just chitchat in the room later.
We forgot for a moment that we're sitting next to Cem Murathan's fiancée.
-Come on. Come on! -I'm just joking!
-I'm starting to get upset with you both. -[Esra] Okay, fine.
It's really so thoughtful of him.
He set up this whole program for the three of us.
Excuse me. Can I have a little more butter with bread?
[laughing]
What's so funny, Funda?
Can we please just go upstairs? We'll order pasta or something.
[Funda] No, I'm not leaving without having the chef's dessert.
-It's called "chef's dome." -The chef's dong, you said?
-[laughs] Dome, dome. -Dome, dome.
-Oh. -[Funda laughs]
[man] I'll be ready to go in two minutes.
İskender?
Ah, the hunger has turned her completely feral.
-[Funda laughs] -Esra?
-Oh, what's up? -[laughs]
-You look great. Even more than before. -Aww!
-Still quite the liar. -[İskender chuckles]
[chuckling]
Oh, this is Leyla, Funda.
-İskender. -Enjoy your dinner.
-Nice to meet you. -So nice.
Nice to meet you.
Do you still mainly stay in Ankara? Or, well, here, I mean?
No, I had some work. I'll be back in Istanbul the day after tomorrow.
-And what are you up to? -Same here. I have a few meetings.
So we're all staying here for a bit.
-Istanbul is still home for you? -Yes, yes, it is.
-I mean, yeah. -Uh, wait. Still the same number?
[Esra] Uh-huh. I mean, I don't know.
-Which one do you have? -That one? Let me give you a ring.
-Mine is different now. -Mm-hmm.
[cell phone rings]
-It's ringing. -Hmm. There we go.
-Now you have mine. -And you have mine.
-Well, I'll see you soon. -Of course.
And do give your wife my best, please.
I will. [chuckles]
-Good night. -Good night.
[Leyla] Good night.
That İskender seems like he is a portion and a half, Esra.
-He's two! -Is he gone? Funda, check if he's gone.
-He's gone. He's gone. -Okay, what was that?
-We haven't seen each other in ten years. -Who was that?
-He was basically my Cem Murathan. -[Funda gasps]
-Oh! -Yeah.
Why'd you end things?
[sighs, chuckles]
Well, I cheated on him with Murat.
-Ah! -[Esra] Yeah.
[Funda] That's right. You told me.
[Turkish dance music playing]
[cell phone vibrating]
-Your phone's buzzing. -Oh, yeah?
I thought that was my heart.
Yeah. [chuckles]
I'm sure.
[phone continues vibrating]
-Defne. -[Defne] I'm back.
[music continues playing]
Where are you?
[music cuts off]
Welcome home.
[chuckles]
Welcome home to you, Defne.
You're a brand-new person.
-I love it. [inhales] -Thank you so much.
Are you here for good this time?
Or just on your way somewhere?
[melancholy music playing]
Sorry, honey.
[exhales] I was in a lot of pain.
Had some things to think over.
[sighs] Defne.
You can't walk back into my life so quickly.
I have a lot to think over, so give me some time, okay?
I am glad you're doing better.
[music fades out]
All three meetings went very well today.
Only Gültepe Chemicals had a little bit of tension with the board.
But all decisions were unanimous.
So ultimately, today was productive.
[Uncly] You already finished three days of work, and now you wanna come back?
What else can we do? That was it, Uncle Can. Shouldn't we go back?
-[laughs] Your willpower is admirable. -[cell phone chimes]
Come on. I'm hanging up now, okay? Kisses, Uncly.
Sleep well. See you.
ARE YOU ASLEEP?
NOT YET
-[phone whooshes] -[knock on door]
No way.
[playful guitar music playing]
No way.
I missed you so badly. I couldn't sleep.
[exhales]
It's like I'm addicted to your presence.
Hopefully not in a bad way. [chuckles]
I don't wanna spend even one second without you, my love.
[inhales sharply]
Tag this. "If only my husband had a jet to fly in style."
-[laughing] -Esra.
What? I know.
Ugh! I think that from now on,
I'm never traveling anywhere without a private plane.
Your point's been made, Funda. Give it a rest.
Mr. Cem, you've made a huge mistake. You should not let us get used to this.
Let's drop the formalities between us, please.
-I think we could get used that too. -[camera shutter clicks]
[chuckles]
[cell phone chimes]
HELLO
[whooshes]
Did the young sir request an orange juice?
Oh my, how lucky!
My son, may I give you a kiss? Just one?
Oh!
Go ahead, drink it.
Enjoy. Enjoy it, my prince.
I'VE BEEN THINKING ABOUT YOU
[laughs]
SO MANY YEARS
[phone chimes]
I MISSED YOU SO MUCH, ESRA
[clears throat]
[phone whooshes]
[chimes]
LET'S NOT LOSE EACH OTHER ANYMORE
-[Esra sighs] -There's the race this weekend.
-Ah, Gece's racing debut. -[Cem] Uh-huh.
That's right. I'm expecting you all, by the way.
Oh, of course we'll come. That's great.
Right, Esra?
We will.
Esra, Gece's racing this weekend.
Ah! Of course. Sounds great.
I would love to introduce you to my friends.
-Oh! -[Cem] Mm-hmm.
Super. [chuckles]
You know what? Is it about time for a bedtime story?
You wanna go lie down and let your papa tell you a story?
-[toy babbles] -"Unh-unh," you said?
-Well, we have to go to sleep. -[phone chimes]
LET'S HAVE DINNER THIS WEEK
BUT JUST YOU AND ME
MAYBE, LET'S TALK LATER
[sighs] Cem's waiting for me downstairs.
I'm just grabbing some things, and then the apartment is all yours.
Enjoy your stay.
And Buddy can stay with Ömer, if you need. I'll get him this weekend.
-Does that work? -Sounds good.
I made up with Ömer, by the way.
-Ah, are you serious? -Mm-hmm. I brought Buddy.
We met at the door, had a little chitchat.
Then he invited me in. I guess he's bored.
We kissed and made up.
Oh wow! That's great news.
I can't tell you how relieved I am. Good for you guys.
-Bravo. -Anyway, I'll let you go.
-We'll talk later. -Oh, before you go.
There's the race this weekend. We're supposed to attend.
Yep, got it.
Your mother called. I didn't pick up.
-What did you tell her? -Nothing yet.
-Oh. -Mother will be told once it's official.
I thought you were staying at your mom's.
Are you staying with Esra and Murat?
No, Leyla's living room.
Ah, put these here. Like that.
Did you miss me, sweetie?
Oh! What's wrong? Did our son upset you?
Nope. Wasn't him.
-[gate clangs] -[bell rings]
[announcer] And there's the bell, and they're off to a strong start.
Although Gece, number three, who debuts with this race,
starts behind her opponents by about two to four lengths.
Bal Durusu, number four, leads the race.
But especially after the 600-meter flag,
number one, Nar Ekşisi is closing the gap.
However, number five, Rüzgâr Metin,
gets ahead in the middle lane.
Next to him is number six, Şeker Adem and number two, Orchid.
And Gece, number three, is coming from the outermost lane.
She takes the lead of the group. With each passing meter,
she increases the gap between her and her rivals.
And in the last 200 meters, Gece leads by five lengths total now.
The final stretch of the race.
-Number three, Gece, extending the lead… -[jockey exhales]
…wins the first heat
of what I'm certain will be a long racing career.
Dear race fans, dear guests, shortly,
the officials will gather
in the VIP section to present Gece's cup.
We all will watch together.
Congratulations.
[photographer] Just one more, Mr. Cem.
[photographer 2] Mr. Cem, over here as well, please. Lovely.
-[cork pops] -[jazz music playing]
[chattering]
You didn't mention that Defne returned.
I was equally surprised to see her. Trust me.
Gece's first race, she couldn't bear to miss it. Supposedly.
[footsteps approach]
-[Defne] Hello. -Hello there.
-Your hair looks lovely like that, Defne. -Yeah?
Thank you so much.
[exhales]
Sounds like things were eventful.
Not exactly. Nothing that interesting.
[Defne groans softly]
A step at a time you're approaching your pursuits, Leyla.
Commendable.
-I'm not sure I… -Ah! Mert is here.
I'll be back.
What did that mean?
I took it to mean she's here to see you.
Şeyyaz, for God's sake, are you drunk? What are you saying?
Not drunk, but I'm working on it.
[exhales]
-Leyla. -Hmm?
Defne is ruthless.
[Leyla clicks tongue]
-[music continues] -[chattering]
[jazz music playing]
[chattering]
Don't let Ömer Cenker's file be the thing that gets you in trouble.
[Cem] I trust Mert on that.
-We'll see. -[camera shutter clicks]
Leyla.
Have you met Mert?
I haven't. Good evening.
-Hello. -[Leyla] Pleased to meet you.
I'm very pleased as well.
-Mert is my childhood friend. -[Leyla] Hmm.
Chief prosecutor these days,
but he's the reason I got my head bashed when we were kids.
[laughing]
I'd love to hear these stories sometime.
I'll gladly tell them.
Like, the Ömer Cenker case you had mentioned at one point.
What about Ömer?
[Ömer whispers] Hey, Leyla. Here, here, here.
-[elevator bell dings] -We're off the hook.
-[chattering] -[camera shutters clicking]
How you feeling?
Psst. It's all gonna be okay. Don't worry.
-[Leyla clears throat] -[elevator bell dings]
[Sarp sighs] Here we go.
You ready, princess?
[kisses]
Shouldn't you be on the other side?
The side I'm on is clear.
Yo, dude. Not now. Come on.
[jazzy theme music playing]
