AYNUR Am I too late? Did he ask her already?

HILMI No, but hurry. They're up next!

AYNUR I can't find the link…

Then they sat down and started asking me different questions…

like how I got into architecture and why.

It's pretty brave of Can to propose to her in front of everyone.

He's not actually gonna do it on the zip line, is he?

I think he's gonna do it now.

-It's so beautiful here! Ah! -Listen, I've had something on my mind.

We've known each other for two years now.

And every single day, I feel so lucky that I met you.

So, Mavi Şimşek…

-Uh, what are you-- -Will you…

Um, wait, Mavi, careful! You're too--

Mavi!

Mavi!

-Man, he failed hard! -Musa!

He fucked up his proposal! How'd that happen?

Hang on. They just fell. He didn't ruin anything yet.

Wait, did he propose or not?

No.

I think Mavi jumped on purpose before he could ask her.

-Son! -I guess Mavi is too clever for Can.

-What are you saying? -What do you think?

-I think Can wanted to… -What?

I think Can was gonna ask me to marry him earlier.

Whoa! Big news! Uh, but…

What makes you think that?

Aren't you happy?

-You don't seem very happy. -Well, of course I'm thrilled.

You know, if he was going to ask.

-I'm just-- -Just what?

Don't drag this out. Say what you're thinking.

First of all, I love Can so much. No doubt about that, okay?

Okay, and second?

Secondly, it's easy for Can.

But to me, marriage feels like deciding to stay in Hamburg forever.

But that big architecture prize I won

just proves that something's happening right now!

What if I work overseas?

How long will that be? A year or two? Who knows? Look, I'm just scared.

Mavi, explain that to Can.

You two need to talk it out.

Tell me then, what's plan B? You got a plan B, don't you?

Come on, don't mess with me. Don't you have work to do?

Are you gonna let the humiliation crush you?

Musa, seriously, enough joking. I'm not in the mood for this, man.

-Why not just ask her now? It's easy! -Nothing's easy right now.

No way. She's not ready for all that.

-You mean you're not ready for it! -Okay.

-Yeah, I'm overwhelmed here. -If I were you, it's now or never.

Can?

They had some tissues, but that was it.

-Who were you talking to? -Uh, to Musa.

-Huh? -Trying to mess with me just like always.

I think you guys are cute.

And you know my family. They enjoy trying to get on my case.

-It's really annoying. -But a large family is wonderful too.

-I just wish I had one. -Well, soon you'll be…

Uh, well, you're one of us.

Thank you. I'm starving, you?

Wow! A Turkish dinner!

I didn't know they did that in Austria. Çiğ köfte!

-Mmm. -Mavi, I just wanted to ask…

It's okay.

-It's just spicy, that's all. -Dad's recipe's a little hot.

-Okay, I wanted to ask about-- -Yeah, it's really hot.

-What I wanted to ask you was-- -Yeah?

Ah. Spicy.

If only you knew how beautiful you are.

What'd you say?

I asked if you knew just how gorgeous you are, my dear.

Ah!

Hey, what's that?

-I want to see! -Oh!

What is it?

This is in honor of our second anniversary.

10 DAYS IN ISTANBUL

Istanbul?

Ten days?

Thank you!

I'm just about to pick up Mavi, and then we're off to the airport.

-And what about the proposal? -I'm proposing in Istanbul.

The plan is sunset tomorrow at Sarayburnu hill.

"Promising Hamburg architect Mavi Şimşek has just been chosen as the winner

in the "Newcomers" category with her design,

speaking of the prize as being dedicated to her late father."

Aww! Aynur is going to love it when she reads this.

And the photo of the three of you? So sweet!

-She doesn't know yet, right? -No.

Hi, Aynur.

Hello there, Nora. Is my little girl nervous yet?

Oh, Mom, hey!

She's only checked her watch every three minutes.

-Sounds like her. Voilà. -I can hear you guys.

Thanks, Mom. You're the best.

Bus never showed up.

So I got my old bike out of storage and pumped up the tires…

Tell me, why Istanbul? Isn't Paris much more romantic?

Because I've never gone to Turkey, not once,

even though our families are from there.

And I guess you skipped Turkish? Missed the mark.

Okay, Can's here. I better go.

-Bye, Mom. -Bye, darling.

-Text me when you land, okay? Good luck! -Yeah.

Mom, read my article there.

-Okay, love! Text me when you arrive! -Uh-huh.

-I'll send both of you a postcard! -Look at this!

This here is an architecture magazine that is known around the whole world.

And Mavi says in here that you inspired her designs!

Look at you three in the photo!

Oh shit.

"Oh shit"?

I have to stop her.

Wait, what? Huh?

Mavi! Mavi, please wait! Just wait!

She's coming… to Istanbul.

These days, young people share their whole lives on the internet.

Please get everything ready.

Thank you for arranging this.

I know your father's law office really needs you right now.

Yeah, I think they can all survive for ten days without me.

Yeah?

Yeah, of course they can.

Istanbul.

I'm so excited to finally get to visit.

My mother made us such Germans,

so now I'm just clueless about the city and the culture.

She feels German, that's for sure.

You beat her when it comes to who asks the most questions,

so congratulations.

It's gonna be great, trust me.

Why they changed it, I can't say

People just liked it better that way

Take me back to Constantinople

No, you can't go back To Constantinople

Now it's Istanbul, not Constantinople

Why did Constantinople get the works?

That's nobody's business but the Turks

Istanbul

Miss Mavi?

-Miss Mavi Bilgin? -Sorry, my name is Şimşek.

Yes, sorry. Miss Mavi Şimşek.

I'm here to pick you up.

My name is Birol.

Is this some kind of VIP service?

Yes, you could call it that.

I didn't do it.

-Hmm? -Honestly.

Although my mother mentioned a treat for us, so…

Look over there!

That's a typical shape for the architecture here.

Welcome! Welcome. I'm so happy to meet you.

My name is Caroline Mehnert. Please call me Caroline, all right?

Would you follow me? I'll have Birol handle the luggage.

The villa, known as a "yalı" in Turkish, dates from the 19th century

and has survived a number of earthquakes.

A blaze in 1920, though, almost destroyed everything.

This isn't a boutique hotel.

Huh?

-Isn't this too expensive? -This? I don't know.

-Then who do you think booked it? -I have no idea.

-And this banister here? -Oh, is that Canadian maplewood?

Yes! Thankfully, it survived the fire almost entirely unscathed.

We're doing everything we can to ensure the yalı's authentic preservation.

Especially since it's belonged to the family

since it was built so long ago.

Wow!

Finally.

Hello.

Hello.

Welcome home, Mavi.

-Hmm? -Oh.

Uh, she means, "Welcome to your house."

I'm Yadigar, your babaanne.

And this house is yours.

She's my what?

She's your grandmother. On your father's side, that is.

Oh, that can't be right. Sorry, but there must be some mistake here.

My mother and I don't have any other relatives, I'm afraid.

Your mother is called Aynur Şimşek.

And your father was Osman Bilgin, my son.

When they got married, he decided to take your mother's last name.

Very modern.

And you?

You are Mavi.

My granddaughter.

Till yesterday, I knew nothing about you.

Are these photographs here of my father?

Mmm.

She's not picking up.

Maybe her phone is on silent?

I hear ringing.

It's my mom.

Aynur?

Instead of bringing her here,

you could have given me time to prepare Mavi for this.

And when were you planning to tell me that I have a granddaughter?

Okay, right. Basically, Aynur is feeling blindsided. She's mad.

-This is all going way too fast for her. -Mavi is my daughter!

And now she's explaining

that she gets to decide exactly what you hear, and when, and how.

But, hey, I'm sure she means well.

-Mom, hey! -Do you understand? I decide!

Can you please come talk to me in private?

You should've told me I have family here, that my grandmother is alive!

-She's right! -She's driving a wedge between us already.

Your grandmother is…

Well, she was so terrible back then. The whole family was awful.

Your father wanted to leave. We wanted to protect you! We had to!

From my own family?

I promised your father I'd keep you safe before he passed away.

If you had a chance to know him…

All that wealth, all the rules and stress, it was too much!

I know that we didn't make the right decision.

I should have told you.

I'm really sorry.

And I hope that your grandmother has changed for your sake.

-Why not let me find that out for myself? -Get to know her.

But trust me on this, it's not such an easy thing to do, becoming a Bilgin.

Okay.

Your father's law firm, you work there, correct?

We do corporate law.

And we specialize in midsize companies.

Oh.

Then I take it you're familiar with the obligations

that any family company can bring.

But our Mavi grew up without any real family around her at all.

She doesn't know what it's like.

Don't worry, she's gonna be thrilled once things settle.

It's always been a real dream of hers to have a large family like this one.

Imagine, if you can, that over the last 20 years,

I've been led to believe that I had no other living descendants left.

How could Aynur have hidden her from me?

My only son and his only child.

I assume that Aynur had her reasons for it.

Sorry, my mother had to leave.

Oh.

I would have liked to speak to her.

It's true, a lot of mistakes were made back then.

On both our parts.

Mavi, how would you feel if I hosted a family get-together here?

I know everyone would love to meet you.

-I would like that. -I'll plan a few festivities.

The day after tomorrow?

Just family? A few close friends?

Great!

I'm very glad to get the chance to get to know you.

My granddaughter. You're always welcome here.

We felt that it was right to book a new hotel for the two of you.

A hotel that's more suitable.

You're going to enjoy it, Mavi.

Thank you.

I have a grandmother. I just met my father's mother.

It's incredible.

My own family! It's just like I wanted, a huge family, Can.

And not just any family, the Bilgins.

What if they expect someone else?

If I don't get accepted? I mean, they don't even know me yet.

And once they meet you, they will never let you go.

You think so?

I guess we'd better…

Wow!

Come with me. Please.

How could Aynur have taught Mavi so little?

The child can't even speak a word of Turkish.

She knows nothing of her family's heritage.

She could even think this Can has something to offer.

We need to investigate his family thoroughly.

Please call Rana for me.

She wants to acquire a business over in Germany.

Tell her a law firm has been suggested to us for her.

Oh, and ask Kent if he's available.

I need to talk to him.

May I ask what for?

Now Mavi is my heir.

That changes everything.

If she stays, then every door will be open to her.

Please, reach me 24/7. I'm happy to assist.

I can arrange anything and everything for you.

Restaurant reservations, Bosphorus tours, private guides,

limousine services, private shoppers…

And this is the Sultan Suite.

"Sultan" is commonly mistaken as only male,

but in Turkey, a sultan is also female and can mean "empress."

Now it's mostly occupied by your family.

By the Bilgin family.

-Oh! Just a sec. -Just a sec.

-Oh! -Cheers, for sure.

So tell me, got plans for the day, Mavi?

Let's see some of the buildings by the architect--

Mimar Sinan.

Yeah!

I'd love to see the Seven Hills of Istanbul.

I know it's a lot, but today we can start maybe with the first one?

-Mmm! -Excuse me.

Mmm!

There's more still?

Sorry to interrupt, but you have visitors.

Should I bring them? Or…

We are ready, come and get me

I've been waiting for too long

Way down, it is on I've been waiting for too long

You must be Mavi.

You don't look that shit.

We better get right to work on your Instagram photos.

Hi, I'm Edo.

Your cousin.

Your second cousin.

Or third? Well, one of those, anyway.

Aunt Yadigar wanted to introduce us all, but that's so '90s.

And I love surprises! Especially when I'm the surprise.

And, hello!

Excuse him, please. That's just who he is.

I'm Leyla, another second cousin. Welcome, Mavi.

-Second cousin? -Shh, shh, shh!

Family, baby. Just go with it.

-You're great with English, both of you. -Great? It's just something we do!

In our family, everyone speaks English.

Since the Ottoman Empire,

our private and working relationships internationally are essential.

We learn it first in school here, then travel overseas to study--

Boring! Quit it!

Um, do you have another wish?

Birol! You are here.

I swear, I wanted to call you.

Unfortunately, we need to go!

See you!

"We" means "us"! Get up, you two! We have a lot to do!

-Let's go! -Hurry, hurry!

I've heard she has a boyfriend. Is that right?

Yes, well, nobody else can meddle in our little family issues except me.

He may be a lawyer, but that's not necessarily a bad thing.

By German standards, isn't being a lawyer actually seen as a quite laudable career?

Just assume it's going to be a problem, hmm?

Ah!

-There must be a visitor. -Oh!

It seems like someone's coming.

Kent.

Meltem is awfully excited, huh?

-Uh… -Just try to relax. Relax.

I know. I'm fine.

Shh! Okay, okay, I'm fine.

Ms. Yadigar.

-Welcome, sir. -How nice you're here.

How could I refuse you?

Ladies. Such beauties.

Ladies, let me introduce all of you. Kent.

You know Safiye Tok, President of the Tok Foundation.

Of course.

Meltem Ulu, Managing Director of Ulu Aviation.

-Nice to meet you. -Pleasure.

Last but not least, Rana from Ergüler Holding,

Girls, I'll be back in just a moment.

Hurry along, dear.

This really shouldn't be rushed.

-Enjoy your lunch. -Mmm! Thank you!

You know, this is her first time visiting here in Turkey.

I want Mavi to come to know all of us,

but also Istanbul and our culture better while she's here.

So how can I help?

I just want you to get to know her and to keep an open mind.

Cheers!

Okay, now here's a quick lesson about our family.

You listening? The Bilgins are kind of like…

Well, I guess you could say that we're Turkish aristocrats.

The business was originally founded by Yadigar's grandparents

in Cappadocia a century ago.

And then they began investing wisely, bought a bunch of land, moved to Istanbul,

established themselves internationally,

all that stuff, and voilà!

The business gets handed down.

And since Yadigar had only one child, that means your father…

…she chose a temporary manager for the company, Güney, apparently.

-And Güney is? -He's another second cousin.

I think it's safe to say that Güney expects to hear Yadigar will say

she's choosing him as her successor at her birthday party.

The big celebration is next week in Cappadocia.

So I'm just saying… Pah! The timing is perfect, baby!

-Whoo! -Perfect!

-Why is it perfect timing? -The cards have been reshuffled.

You have just magically surfaced! There's a granddaughter!

-Mavi! -Ugh! They're here again!

Ugh! They're here again, Edo!

-Mavi, please look at us! -Is your family well?

Edo, let's go, let's go. Let me drive that.

Mavi, please look over here!

Get lost! Leave us alone! Ugh!

Whoa!

I said just leave us alone!

How come they're after us? What are they saying?

It's paparazzi!

Wait, why? Just because my father was a Bilgin or what?

Because you are a Bilgin, Mavi!

You should get used to it, babe.

Mavi, you're big news here! You're a Prince Harry!

And Can is Meghan!

If Meghan had a way worse sense of basic style, babes.

-Sorry! -Whoo!

The city got crazy on a Friday

Tequila start giving me a migraine

Waiting in line, getting sloppy So I'm out

Whoo-hoo!

Hey, Mavi, come!

-Mavi, come here! Mavi! -Mavi, come!

-Mavi! -Come on, Mavi!

Mavi, come dance with us.

Okay, okay. Come, come, come.

-I'll get something to drink, okay? -Okay!

Excuse me, sir?

-What was all that? -It's our unspoken language.

It's essential for any communication in Turkey.

You're such a mess! Was your mother asleep at the wheel?

Come on! Okay, watch this.

"No."

"Ah, just a bit, thanks."

-"Just a bit." -"What the hell?"

"Hey, stop it, get lost." "Come here." "Ahh! I'm scared."

"Hey! Keep it walkin', pal."

"May no harm come to you, child." "Look over here, over here, over here."

-Oh, come on, let's dance. -Uh…

Oh, hey! Very good! Very good!

You learn quickly! Very good!

Just say something.

What?

Kiss me! Hey, no, stop it! What are you doing?

Single, sexy Kent is here.

He's probably the most irresistible bachelor in the Orient.

Uh…

Hey, he's gone!

He just disappeared. Oh, God, that is a man.

Mavi!

Mavi, come dance with us.

Oh, hold on. About the welcome party.

-What are you wearing tomorrow night? -Probably something we brought with us.

Uh-huh. Uh…

It says your grandmother's birthday is next weekend.

What about my father? Is his name there?

No.

Here, it looks like there was a lot of speculation

about what was going on back then when he decided to leave the company.

Thank you, my love.

All right, kiddos! Here we are!

Hello!

Please, these two desperately need your help.

Of course! Welcome!

This is where the magic happens.

Please give them your everything package.

For exclusive events and really special occasions.

Where's the hidden gem? Where's the funky spot?

Cosmic energy Look at street art

-No! -Who's your best friend?

How did they talk? What's your favorite city?

Did you see the link to the hotel?

It's called the Çırağan Palace.

Shut up!

They put you guys up in there?

-Yeah! -Insane.

At the party later, rule number one.

Trust nobody. Most of all Güney.

-Ooh! Disgusting. Oh God. -It's okay! She won't wear it!

Put that back!

So much for marriage. If you ask now, you'll seem like some kind of gold digger.

Don't take that crap sitting down, Canim!

Hey, gotta be honest.

Musa, hey, that's not helpful in the slightest.

Chill, you guys are the best.

Rule two. Always smile and nod in a friendly way.

Yes.

I'll call you.

Shape. Shape.

Third rule. Don't drink too much.

We're going to meet the entire family tonight.

Mavi, you're hyperventilating.

They're all just humans, okay?

Fourth rule now.

You must kiss everyone's hand. Super vital, okay?

And rule five.

Trust nobody, Mavi.

Nobody.

This party is like a shark tank.

Wow!

Oh, you look so beautiful.

Oh God, my angel.

-You look so pretty, Mavi! -Welcome home, Mavi!

May I?

-Yeah. -Can.

Follow me, please.

Come here. Come here. You look great.

I would have loved to have you to myself just a little longer,

but they all wanted to meet you.

Look how many people are here!

This is our gardener and his family.

They are all hard-working and loyal. Quite appealing traits.

Thank you for coming.

Welcome.

-Oh no! -Oh!

Employees are the ones who kiss our hand. It shows deference.

Let's keep it that way.

Rule number five. Trust nobody.

-This way. Over here. -Huh?

-Uh… -I'd like to introduce you to someone.

BREAKING NEWS

FORGOTTEN PRINCESS

A GRANDDAUGHTER!

RICH OVERNIGHT

PRINCESS MAVI WHO IS SHE?

HILMI Can you please call me? It's urgent!

Champagne?

What's up with him?

Hello, there!

All right. Good to see you.

Hello! How are you all, huh?

Ah, Yadigar!

Thank you.

-Have you seen Can? -Nuh-uh.

I'm looking at the fourth future ex-wife of Leyla's father there.

A shame. I liked her.

-Me too. -And Can?

Uh, well, I suppose Caroline's introducing him around right now.

So, who exactly is this Caroline?

She's kind of like a personal assistant to Yadigar.

It's quite strange for some outsider who isn't family

to enjoy such a high level of trust.

Sometimes it can be advantageous to stay on the outside.

The inner family circles around here can get pretty complicated, Mavi.

She's hinting at intrigue, you know, but doesn't want to say it outright.

Think of your dress.

Let me just put it like this.

Men who want to ride around in helicopters will always play dirty.

Yeah, just hang on. I need to…

Just a minute, Mom, okay? It's quieter over here.

Hello?

-Is that the boyfriend? -Hello?

Yeah, hello?

Well? How are you two doing?

How is the event? Who's on the guest list there?

The party is huge. I've met at least 100 people here already.

But what's going on?

Something urgent, you said.

I tried to stop your father. I said that this could wait till later.

-But he kept on pushing. -Tell him, Dad.

Son, um, our firm just got a big client.

The fee they're going to pay is higher than our annual income.

This really is a gift from heaven. The largest order we've had to date!

Except she wants all of our lawyers in the office here for the contract signing.

I really am sorry, son.

I'm gonna need you here.

When?

I know you wanted to propose, but maybe that can wait a little bit longer?

Hello? Can?

-I've got some bad news. -Okay.

I'm going…

back to Hamburg.

We got a huge new client, a really important client.

This is a turning point for us.

They scheduled the first meeting tomorrow at 9:00 a.m.

-Can't you meet online or something? -She wants us all there on site.

The whole firm.

And since contract law is my specialty, I need to go.

Yeah.

Well, I can't say this comes as a surprise.

Hey, what if I try to at least get the weekend?

Do you think that would help?

It's important, and your father needs you in Germany, right?

Yeah.

Then I'm sure of it.

You need to go.

Go, but then come back here to me as soon as the job's done.

Mmm-hmm.

-As soon as you're done, hear me? -Yes, ma'am.

-"Yes, ma'am"? -Yes, ma'am.

Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Meltem Cumbul!

-I wanted to say goodbye. -Ah?

Has something happened?

No, I just have to get to Hamburg for work.

I'll really miss you.

See you.

I am very happy to welcome my granddaughter Mavi

not only into our family,

but also into our company,

Bilgin Holding!

She'll be stepping into an important role in the near future.

She's welcoming you to the Bilgin family

and also the family business.

Have an enjoyable evening!

That's how Ms. Yadigar is.

She recognizes talent and does everything she can to promote it.

Thank you so much for the translation. Oh! Sexy, single Kent.

"Kent" works fine as well.

Mmm!

Yeah.

I had better go and see my grandmother.

Ms. Yadigar, over here, please!

Mavi, when you look so skeptical and thoughtful like this,

you look just like your father.

He was a bit of a hot-head, but so brave!

He would always run and climb. He had such boundless energy.

Any animals that were sick or injured, he'd always bring home.

He wanted to change the world.

Like his daughter.

I read your magazine interview.

You have such big ideas, and not just in architecture.

That's actually what I was hoping to speak to you--

We're running a big company.

Here, you can have a very big role in shaping the business if you want it.

Uh, thank you, I…

I'm not sure what to say. I just--

There's time to think.

Mavi!

Welcome.

My dear!

Wow, you are beautiful! Wonderful!

Unfortunately, I don't speak Turkish.

Auntie, Mavi doesn't speak Turkish.

She never learned it.

-Typical Almancı. -We thought she did!

Our poor relatives. They only know Turkish.

Ah, Güney, hello.

Hello, granddaughter.

Or I guess it's more apt to say "heir."

Güney, we want to take a photo with Mavi.

Would you?

They'd both like a picture.

Yeah! Uh, yeah!

Yes, ladies.

Okay.

Three, two, one.

And… very good!

-Done. -Thanks so much.

Oh, my dear.

How beautiful!

Mavi!

-Kent! -Good evening.

You are here.

I'd like to take Mavi to say hello to Susan.

Oh! Nice entrance.

I can loan it to you if you'd ever like.

Please excuse us.

And who is Susan?

She's made up, yeah.

Looks like the party's done. Hungry?

Mmm.

COLD WATER

Mmm!

This is so delicious!

Mmm!

Kind of similar to fish sandwiches in Hamburg.

Hmm.

Are you still thinking it over, what Aunt Yadigar said?

I mean, it's bizarre.

I'm part of this huge family that I didn't know about.

-Mmm. -Thank you. Mmm.

And now I guess I join this big empire suddenly? I'm…

Well, I just started up a company back home.

I'm not sure I can do any of this.

And suddenly I'm given a chance like this, because I've got a rich grandmother?

Nepo baby.

Thanks.

That's the Bilgin family way.

I know.

And I want to be a part of it.

You know, I've been curious about where my father was from.

I don't just want to be "the heir."

I want to show everyone who I am and what I can do.

I bet I can really do something.

Look at that, the Maiden's Tower.

A powerful sultan had the tower built because a fortune teller predicted

that his daughter would die horribly on her birthday

at only 16 from a fatal snake bite--

And on her birthday, his present to her was a fresh fruit basket,

but there was a snake hidden among the figs.

It would have been enough if he had gotten his daughter a boat

instead of trying to exile the girl to some island prison.

I mean, a tower is more stable.

It's weather-proof, and storm-proof, and it's really durable.

Ah! I hear an architect.

You've clearly learned about me, and I know nothing about you.

There's not that much to tell, really.

I did my master's in civil engineering in Karlsruhe,

and since then, I've been in charge of our own family-run company.

Just a dull business type, or so my ex would say.

But I guess that's just the gossip.

Thank you, nepo baby.

Touché.

This is nuts! Hey, Nora, it's so wild what's happening.

So tell me, then. How was it, huh?

Oh, man, I don't even know where to start!

Well, the biggest shock is that my grandmother wants me to join the business,

even though we just met!

Can suddenly had to leave for Hamburg again.

-Wait, he's back in Hamburg? -Yeah.

-An urgent meeting at the firm. -Okay.

He's gonna be so surprised when he hears this.

He has a completely different idea for our future.

I'm stumped about what I should do here.

Mavi, just try to get some sleep for now.

I'll call you tomorrow first thing, okay?

MAVI Are you free? I have so much to tell you.

-The flight was fine, thank you. -Go ahead.

Later on? It's about to start, sorry!

Rana Ergüler. This is our new client, everyone.

This is Ms. Hasanovic, and Ms. Keller, our colleagues.

-Yes. -This is my youngest son, Musa.

He's studying law right now and is currently doing his internship with us.

-I see. -And my oldest son, Can, also a lawyer.

-Hello. -Hello.

I look forward to working with you.

-Good morning, Miss Mavi. Water? -No, thank you.

-Good morning, Miss Mavi. Some fruit? -No, thank you.

-Miss Mavi, coffee? -No, thank you.

It seems good taste must run in the whole family.

Let me introduce you to my most important friends.

They're all successful businesswomen.

My app says this pattern of coffee grounds means a visitor is coming.

Is your mother-in-law coming?

Don't say that. God forbid!

They're talking about coffee grounds and what they mean.

But my app is the best, in my humble opinion.

What kind of app?

Well, it shows the future to us.

We have a common saying in Turkey.

"Never trust the fortune teller…"

I'm sorry.

"…but don't move forward without any guidance."

What are the opportunities

for a young architect in Germany?

I'm not a fortune teller, Meltem.

Well, are there any future plans?

What matters are Yadigar's plans for the future.

I'm sorry. Really sorry.

What did you expect?

You know her mother. This is the result.

I couldn't understand a thing Yadigar's friends were saying.

And as if that wasn't enough,

I spat an olive pit right into my hand.

God!

You did the right thing, Mavi. And all the rest is just elitist bunk.

Mom, please, I'm not trying to debate you on social classes.

I'm upset that Yadigar's friends saw me acting like such an idiot.

Oh, come on, Mavi. You were raised differently, all right?

-Just be true to who Mavi is -Who I am, huh?

How do you think it feels to constantly need someone to translate?

I feel so awkward and German here.

Yeah, well, we are German!

And you're a very talented German at that!

If someone dislikes you just because of a silly olive pit,

here's what you can tell them, "Take that olive pit and choke."

I know, you're right.

Thank you, Mom.

I think this visit will be a little easier for you, Mavi.

I rarely come by the office anymore.

Güney's office is upstairs.

He's not an easy man, but he's a brilliant businessman.

Your great-grandfather.

Your grandfather.

Yeah.

And there's still some room here for grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

Who knows?

Welcome, Ms. Yadigar. Uh, does Mr. Güney know you're here?

He doesn't. We just came to say hello, so we won't be long.

Excuse the interruption. I'll call you back.

How many times have I told you? I don't want to be disturbed!

-Uh-- -Oh, Aunt Yadigar!

What a surprise. Hello.

A pleasant surprise, I trust.

A wonderful one, but of course.

And Mavi.

I'm showing Mavi the company and wanted to talk to you about the village.

I'm not intruding, am I?

My grandmother lived in this village until she died.

We always used to vacation there.

Your father truly loved the village.

He was always running and playing in the caves.

We tried all there is to try.

It seems the rock is just too porous.

It's been rebuilt over too many times.

Too many tourists have simply helped themselves to the stone.

It's a bit like the Berlin Wall.

Pieces are taken like trophies by people when they leave.

Like the best Swiss cheese, holes are everywhere.

The whole village is costing us far too much money at the moment.

A renovation is out of the question at such a late stage.

So, in my opinion, we should just tear down everything.

So we've left the village alone far too long, I see.

Don't blame yourself. After all, the village is just a bunch of ruins!

Leave it to me, hmm? Yeah?

Even the last of the residents.

Would you mind if I take some photos?

-What for? -I find the village buildings fascinating.

In Hamburg, they rarely use tuff in construction.

I'd like more time to take a look at all of these.

Ah! Can's home.

There's been a lot of stress with timelines really rushed.

If it goes on like this, I won't be able to leave.

How are you doing?

I really miss you.

I really miss you.

Hang on.

-Is that Mavi I'm hearing on the phone? -Yeah.

Can, are you hungry?

No.

Mavi, you looked fantastic in all those photos, seriously.

Thank you.

Where did you see photos then?

-Hello, Mavi! -Hey, Hilmi.

I'm sorry Can had to come back here.

It's all good.

At the party, you had such a natural elegance.

And that red dress? Gosh, so pretty, Mavi. You looked gorgeous.

Luckily, you hid Can in all the photos.

Hey, nobody hid Can! He just disappeared before my eyes!

The boys are working themselves to death here, I'm telling you.

This new business client is a nut!

She's calling again? What is wrong with her? It's unbelievable.

Seriously.

Can will have to answer this, sorry. Let's talk later.

So long.

Güney.

So, what do you think of the room?

It really is the most beautiful suite we have.

In my opinion, the loveliest suite in all of Europe too.

Normally, the only people allowed to stay here are famous actors,

presidents of great nations, even kings.

But no queens or women who are presidents, then?

I'd be more interested in that.

But presumably it's not the room that prompted a visit.

Oh yeah?

No, I think it's wonderful, really, that the two of us

can discuss things so plainly with each other, quite refreshing.

Mmm-hmm. Speaking of queens…

Hmm.

Well, if you really think

that Edo and his stylist

can give you all of the various finishing touches you so desperately need

in order to blend in with all of your family here,

well, then I'm afraid I have to disappoint you.

Your mother, she…

she must miss her daughter terribly back home.

Yeah? Aynur?

Hmm.

We remember her. Yes, of course.

Now, please don't get the wrong idea. I don't wish you any harm.

I just want to save you any sort of heartache here,

any sort of pain in the long, drawn-out process the future holds.

That's very, um, considerate, thanks.

Oh, just lending a hand, you know. It's one of my strengths.

I'd better get back to the main point. You know, it's this…

Oh, how can I put it? It's this, uh…

…stench of immigrant worker, yeah.

You see, you can never completely get rid of it,

no matter how high you climb your way up in society.

Almancı.

You better ask Can.

He knows what that is.

Even as a lawyer, he still has that same stench.

Can, I don't think I can do this

Oh my God! Seriously, this room never ends!

Surprise!

I can't leave my best friend alone in Istanbul, are you crazy?

Oh my God.

So now I'm here, huh?

Tomorrow, we conquer the city!

Let me know If you get the time

I'm free after 9:00, I'll be…

-Hello. -Hello.

-Hello. -Can I?

Yes.

Okay. All right, come on now.

-Mmm! -Nora! Sorry. Hello.

Nora, come on. No, you've had plenty.

You're the best.

Just a sec.

Come on. Get in the car already.

Oh my God.

-Thanks. -You're welcome.

The other one too. The other hand.

That's the Galata Tower. I've always wanted to go there.

There's some statuettes for sale here of Ahmed Çelebi.

He was the first person in the world to make wings and fly.

And he flew from Galata Tower up there.

How much?

-Thank you. -Thank you.

On the other side of town

I'll be around if you want me around

You

You should come You should come with me

'Cause if you

If you do…

Come on!

And then he got really close to me too.

He even tried to smell my neck. It was so weird.

Anyway, I bet it's all somehow about the village in Cappadocia he's destroying.

Güney was sort of upset about the photos I took of the building plans he made up.

"Almancı" is so offensive. That's really low.

That's bad, even for Güney.

"Almancı"?

-What does that mean? -Mmm, mmm.

It's a term that can be used as a type of slur.

Oh! Edo!

It's the crab cream. It's very good.

-The cream is very good! -Man, Edo!

Turks here will use it as a name for Turks in Germany.

It's meant to demean.

-But we would never use that word. -No, never!

I can feel how everyone's just watching, you know?

They're expecting all sorts of things from me,

but I have no idea what it is they all want!

Mavi, your grandmother is massively influential.

Everyone in Turkey stands in awe.

And so what's expected of you is limitless, actually.

Hey, hey, hey, honey pie.

None of this is about you as a person.

It's about the company,

which brings us back to family.

And if that's true about how Güney is messing up the village somehow--

Then Yadigar's going to kill him for sure.

-To our Mavi. -To Mavi.

Yes, to Mavi and her fight against Güney. Finish him off!

And to showing everyone she can do whatever she wants.

And destroying her hideous wardrobe forever!

They could be donated.

Come on, selfie.

What? Whoa! Whoa!

Show me.

BILGIN'S GRANDDAUGHTER MAVI

You better call Can now.

You seriously think that I'd agree to my client signing this

for only a 10% stake?

That seems fair?

When she will be investing 23 million?

Yeah, 23 million.

Oh, holy shit.

Musa?

BREAKING NEWS HIGH SOCIETY'S HOT NEW COUPLE

Can? Listen, I have to tell you something.

Just in case you read the Turkish news, watch TV, or read the newspaper,

I wanted you to hear it from me--

You mean, "The hot new couple in high society," right?

-So much is happening right now. -Honey…

I know it seems bad, but it's not what you think it looks like.

Honey…

It's fine. I know who we are.

Please don't worry about it, okay?

Okay? I've gotta get back to work.

-Talk later, all right? -I love you.

I think I've had enough for today.

Oh, Mavi…

Thank you.

Here's the check, miss. No rush.

What are you doing?

-I was gonna get it. -Halfsies, 'kay?

Of course not. I've got this one, okay?

No, my dear. Let me do it.

Hey, your money is no good here, love. Come on now. No.

Hang on. No, you said the exact same thing.

Stop. We really shouldn't argue.

Wait, what did you just do?

You can't just cover it all like that.

Are you guys into crazy, complicated rules about everything?

No! This is just what Turks do.

-We need a back and forth! -Anything else is rude, all right?

First, you decline whatever is offered.

-Then there's a second offer. -You decline it again.

Only on the third time it's said can you even begin to think about

whether you'll accept or decline.

You paid too early.

And never, I mean never, ever split the bill. Is that clear?

Got it.

-Thanks for much for coming. -Yes, thank you.

You better go to Turkey.

This guy built a children's home, supports a children's hospice,

plus he swam at the Olympics, he can speak seven languages,

has an eight-pack, and are those dimples?

You'd better head there right now!

What's the plan, Musa? Huh?

Go there and try to chase him away? To claim her?

No, it's more like, "Mavi is my actual dream girl,

and I messed up trying to propose to her once already."

Like that!

Listen, Dad totally gets it.

The next flight to Istanbul leaves in six hours.

We can handle things for you here, so go get her!

CAN - Hi, Nora! I want to surprise Mavi tomorrow.

Will you help me?

Yes?

That was Rana.

Can told her he's leaving, apparently. She couldn't stop him.

And he's coming here to Istanbul.

So he saw the photos of Mavi and Kent, I guess.

This boy is nothing.

He's not the sort of man that Mavi needs at her side.

If Mavi decides to stay with him,

our family is going to lose her again and forever.

Just look at Osman when Aynur came into his life, the cost.

Mavi has a lot to learn. This Can of hers is a distraction.

Please call Can and tell him I want to speak to him.

-Welcome. -Good morning.

How are you?

Thank you for coming here.

Please.

Caroline said that this was urgent.

I'll cut right to the chase.

I know that Mavi and you love each other deeply.

And I'm sure that you've dreamt of a future together.

I trust you've heard the news by now

that Mavi has been thinking of working with our office.

And I support this

because one day she's going to inherit the entire company too.

We have long-standing family ties here.

We're bound to certain duties and values too.

The very partners we choose affect our standing.

So what would it cost to persuade you

to step aside for good?

There's a blank check in the envelope.

And everyone has a price.

Write a number down.

Listen to me, um…

I'm not in love with Mavi because she's part of the Bilgin family.

I just love Mavi for who she is. That's it.

What don't you get?

I don't think you have any idea what our love really is, do you?

But I do know about your parents' finances.

There are only two days left before Yadigar's party.

So, tomorrow, let's all fly to Cappadocia. All right? I'll poke around the village.

One day early in Cappadocia, huh?

Oh, I'm in, baby. I really need a vacation!

Bilgining is seriously exhausting. It's such hard work.

Don't you know the feeling-- Ah, Kent!

-A Kent what? -Huh?

-No, no, no. -Hmm? Kent?

-Kent. -Kent?

-Mmm, Kent! -Oh, hello, Kent.

-Hello. -Wait, don't--

-What brings you here? -Oh, he owns the restaurant.

Hmm! Can we talk for a minute?

Yeah, sure.

Mavi!

-Guys! Can! -So sorry.

Can, where are you? We're at the restaurant.

Is it complicated to get information from the Cappadocia zoning board?

Complicated? Well, yeah. Possible, though.

Why do you ask?

You know the old village that my grandmother's from?

The one in Cappadocia? I heard something about it being torn down.

Who said that?

Not sure, but somebody did.

I'd assume Güney told me that.

He said it was something to do with the stone being too porous.

-Yeah. -Huh.

And you don't buy that?

I'd just feel better after taking a look.

The photos I've seen show cavities,

but that's totally normal for soft rock, as you know.

I mean, that tiny, old village has been there for centuries.

What's going on there? Tell me a joke or something.

I'm here for you. What's the plan?

Get me any building plans turned in and the surveys by the day after tomorrow,

before Yadigar announces her next successor.

And I thought since you're in the business that…

What?

So you really want to push Güney around?

-How are you, sir? -Oh, hello.

-What's your name? -Uh, Can Yılmaz.

My girlfriend is in there. I just wanted to see her.

I'm sorry, you're not on the guest list, bro.

What list? Come on.

-This is a private club. Entry is only-- -I don't believe it. Schießer.

Wait, are you from Germany?

-Uh, yeah. -Oh, from where?

-I'm from Hamburg. -Hamburg?

-Uh, yeah. -I have a cousin over there.

Super!

Can I go in, please? My girlfriend is there.

I'm here to surprise her.

Oh, her? That's Mavi Bilgin. She's with Kent Wolff.

Bro, you think that I don't read the news?

Come on, please, man. Nothing's happening with her and Kent Wolff.

Because she's dating me, okay? We're here 'cause I wanted to ask her to marry me.

But it'll work out.

Back in Germany, I'm sure things were great,

but now, my friend, they're a couple.

Wait, why is the door closing?

Listen, man, about my cousin living in Hamburg, she's still single.

Great. I wish the best for her.

-Mmm-hmm. -God bless.

Really, my best wishes.

Here it is.

Nora, I've changed my mind. I'm not coming.

I need some time by myself!!

Can! Should we talk on the phone tonight?

-Babaanne, are you making something? -Uh…

-Mantı. -Can I help you?

Yes! Want to join me then?

Gladly.

Not too bad, huh?

That face. Wow.

-Babaanne, can I ask you a question? -Anything.

Do you trust Güney?

Güney wants success at all costs.

I'd say a bit overambitious, perhaps, and certainly not very tactful, no.

He puts his work at the company above anything else.

And that's essential for any company.

Certainly for family companies it matters a great deal.

I would have wanted that from your father, too.

Welcome to the family, dear.

Can!

Can, why didn't you call me?

I just kept calling and calling. Your cell was off.

We're flying tomorrow to go out to Cappadocia.

What is it?

Where were you?

With my grandmother. What's wrong?

And before that?

At lunch with Edo, Leyla, and Nora. What's going on here?

Nothing, just happy for you.

I guess you settled in pretty nicely here in this fancy Bilgin world.

-Yeah, they're all my family, so? -Your family?

How long have you known these people you call "family"?

What is all this?

What am I missing here?

Whenever it was your family, Can,

I played my part and stuck to the rules, didn't I?

We'd cut our vacations short, and I kept living in Hamburg, didn't I?

-I did all those Sunday dinners, and-- -I thought you enjoyed all of that.

Yes, I did.

Just as much as finally being here with my own family in Turkey.

And with this opportunity to make changes here--

Come on, Mavi, you're not seriously gonna stay for a position in their company?

Thinking you can make some kind of difference here, are you?

-What, are you saying that I can't? -You're just not the type for all that!

Some kind of corporate drone? That's not who you are!

Then it's good you know who I am, and who I can be, and where I belong!

Maybe it's you who's afraid that you're not good enough!

No matter how hard you try, you'll never be happy here.

"You'll never be happy here"?

Why would he say that?

Nora?

Was I too harsh? Am I being selfish?

Do you think that Can is right?

No, what I'm doing here is important for me and my family.

Why can't he understand that?

And now I'm where I belong. I found my place here.

CAPPADOCIA

Thanks, Birol.

-What's wrong, Edo? -I can't stay. It's too hot.

I'll faint. Let's get back. I'm bored.

-Pull yourself together. -Thanks.

NO NEW MESSAGES

I need a pool full of crushed ice and an air conditioner on my face.

Right now, okay? Now.

Okay.

Seems hopeless I guess.

Walk that walk, bitches.

Welcome to Cappadocia.

Mavi! Oh, your shoe.

Oh my God!

We have bluefish, bonito…

NORA Can, what's going on?

NORA - Mavi says she'll show you that you're wrong.

Hey, guys. Thanks for answering.

I know I really messed things up, but I have a plan!

A new plan! And I'm sure this plan's a champion!

-How long since you got any rest? -Two days, why is that?

-You're acting kind of weird. -Hey, I'm on it. It's under control.

Some help wouldn't hurt, you know?

What's up, then?

Mavi has lost her way in this Bilgin world,

and we have to wake her up.

Here's the big plan, okay?

Aynur, you, Musa, our parents, uh…

Oh, and I will come as a surprise to the birthday soiree for Yadigar.

Then, I'll propose to her with the whole family around us.

So how's that?

Picture a ring,

down on one knee,

and expressing my love to her, the whole shebang.

Just like last time, isn't it, bro?

It's different than last time. This time, I'll really do it.

Want to know something?

You're crazy, but I actually believe in you.

I'll book our flights.

And I'll speak to Caroline. We can do this.

We're gonna show Mavi what really matters!

We're gonna be quick, right?

I can't be in the sun! It's too hot!

Yeah!

-She'll go quick, I'm sure, right? -Mavi.

Too hot.

We have to get out. I don't want to die here.

Baby, how much longer? It's sweltering. The sun has melted my face.

I can't go on. We have to get out of here.

Edo? Is this really your ancestor's house over here?

Are we at the right house, guys?

Yes, this is the right house! Nothing else is right today!

I'm meant for hotels and sparkling drinks!

Girls, look.

You're wasting your time, you know that?

Don't you know? Our village was sold a long time ago.

-What did she say? -Uh…

She said that the whole village has been sold.

Tell them about the hotel

that's going to be built here, my dear.

Look.

You talk about restoring, but what you really mean is destroying.

Can you ask who bought the village?

Aunt, do you know who bought this? Their name?

I don't know who bought it, girl.

A helicopter came.

They got out, looked around, got back in, and left!

They are heartless. They are filling their pockets at our expense.

Güney.

NO NEW MESSAGES

So what do we do now with all this grossness?

I'm not sure yet. I've put someone to work who will report soon.

"I've put someone to work who will report soon"?

-You sound just like Grandma Yadigar! -Come on.

Hang on a sec, guys, Güney isn't totally dumb.

He knows exactly what the village means to Yadigar.

Yeah, but do you believe the village women? Or-- Kent!

The villagers or Kent?

No, he's right there. Kent.

-Hey, hey. -Oh! Kent!

Figured this was important info.

How did you know to find me here? Us! Us! All of us here.

-I told him about it. -Mavi, is he your source?

He's a source of constant annoyance.

Quick on the draw, huh?

Shall I?

Thank you. You have five minutes? Or maybe a few more?

There's something I want to show you.

Do you have five minutes? Or maybe a few more?

She has five minutes, or maybe many more minutes.

-Come on! Go stop her! -Absolutely! Must go stop her.

-Then go! -We'd better go.

-No way! I'm not moving again today! -Guys, calm down now, please.

Kent's helping Mavi out, right?

Or something else?

Mavi, you were the only one who was able to figure all this out.

It turns out Güney is behind the sale of the village.

And I'd love to show it to you in a way you've never seen before.

-The village is over there. You see it? -Mmm-hmm.

Now try to imagine how it'll look if Güney manages to destroy it all.

Oh, wow!

It's so beautiful.

Yes, it is.

Mavi?

I, uh…

-Sorry about that, I just-- -Sorry.

Actually, I… I'm not sorry at all.

I, uh…

Kent, I'm with Can. You know that.

Yeah, I know.

So, the… That's, um…

-Yeah. -Yeah.

Driver.

Now this Can has decided to bring his whole family?

Just his parents and his little brother.

And whose side are you on, then, Caroline?

Regarding your successor,

Güney wants a coordinated press release with you.

They're all expecting a decision.

And an announcement at your birthday party.

We're making our descent into Cappadocia.

I'm glad we cleared that up, then.

Mavi?

-Can! -I was such an idiot for leaving Istanbul.

I'm so sorry.

Come on. Let's go.

Can…

Mavi, there was something I hoped to talk to you about.

-Yeah! -It's all just a little confusing now.

Yeah. Yeah, let's talk. Absolutely, yes. I've got something to tell you too.

You see, I'm… Well, I'm just so busy. There's a lot.

-You go first. -You first.

-No, come on. Tell me, already. -Mavi!

Oh!

Babaanne!

Happy birthday! How are you?

Uh…

Iyi ki doğdun!

Aww.

Congratulations, ma'am.

Thank you, Can.

Could I please have a moment with Mavi alone?

Rana Ergüler? What is she doing here?

Mavi, I hope you know just how truly happy I am to have you here with me.

So happy to have found you, my dear.

Thanks.

Babaanne, something came up about Güney.

He let the village completely fall apart so there'd be no hope of saving it at all.

Güney wants to tear the village down to build a big hotel complex instead.

That's what the "porous rock" story was, how it was too expensive to renovate.

He lied deliberately.

I've always tried my best to treat Güney like a son.

And then he really did become…

a surrogate son.

A very money and power-hungry son, but…

to hear that he's turned on me, that he's hurt the village…

Uh, so it seems like most of the houses need a lot of work done,

but I've already spoken to some companies.

If you want, I can handle the remodels.

My treasured gift has handed me a most treasured gift for my birthday.

-Welcome, welcome. Just follow her. -Hello.

Thanks so much for coming.

WILL MAVI UNSEAT GÜNEY TODAY?

WILL PRINCESS MAVI TAKE THE THRONE?

SHOULD GÜNEY BE WORRIED?

THE INTRIGUES OF GÜNEY BILGIN

Ah, thank you.

-How are you? -We're all here! Ah!

-Just look at you two! -Hey!

-Hello, there, gorgeous! -Oh, how nice!

-Aww! -How are you? So great you're here!

The one and only Edo.

A pleasure.

Nice to meet you.

Mom! I'm so glad you decided to come!

Welcome, dearest guests, beloved friends and family,

a warm welcome to everyone.

Thank you. Thank you, everyone.

Thank you.

We're so very happy to have you here with us this evening.

And what a beautiful evening it is. Thanks so much. Thanks.

As for the star of tonight's events, I'm sure you all know her well, of course.

-Psst! Can, look! There! -She's an impressive woman.

-An incredibly successful businesswoman. -Right there! Look!

A source of inspiration that everyone in the family looks up to.

Myself included.

A loving, caring mother.

Everyone, please give a round of applause for the president of our holding…

The birthday girl herself, Yadigar Bilgin! Here she is!

-Here you go. -Thank you so very much, Güney.

You're very welcome.

Of course, I want to thank each and every one of you very much.

You came all the way here

to celebrate so I wouldn't be alone on this special day.

I know that everyone is waiting to hear an announcement.

I'm sorry to say there isn't one.

However, there's something else we can celebrate tonight.

Mavi.

Bravo! Bravo!

And Kent!

They've given me the most wonderful gift imaginable.

These two have saved the village of my ancestors.

Mavi, your father would be so proud of you, my dear.

Oh! My God, I'm so sorry, man!

Okay, I've got it! Thanks.

Everything's fine! I got it!

Let's toast to these two wonderful people! Now, glasses up, please!

Let's hear you all shout! That's right!

To Mavi and Kent!

Cheers to you!

Cheers to you!

-Can, tell me what's going on. -Can we talk for a minute?

-Yeah. Yeah, sure. Come on. -Yeah? Okay.

Hello!

I can't wait for him to propose to her.

-How magical. -He probably can't either.

-Sorry? -Such a beautiful couple.

They are, that's true.

Mavi, so I came back here to Istanbul two days ago.

Okay.

And I met your grandmother, Yadigar--

That was a sophisticated chess move you executed there, dear sweet cousin.

What do you want? Get out of here already, man.

Oh, I'm sorry. I must now beg for your pardon.

Truly, dear Can, I am so very sorry.

Tell me, Mavi, did you know that Can here despises us Bilgins,

but is more than willing to take our money to save his family?

-Uh-huh. -Sorry, what?

What are you talking about? Huh?

Really?

-I wanted to tell you. He's twisting it. -Did you really?

That boy just isn't right for Mavi.

-Yes, I agree. -No way.

He knows nothing about fashion or style.

Like mother, like son. They are not nice people.

Even though he can speak Turkish.

-Can, just tell me. -Mavi, he's making the whole thing up.

Oh, he's acting so honorable now,

but when he's behind closed doors, he just fills his pockets.

Hey, go away, jackass!

Ooh! I suppose that's your street side?

Hmm?

Mavi, it's not what you think, okay?

If you don't trust me, then go see for yourself what's happening down there.

You're not worth the dirt under my son's fingernail.

Well, look at that! She can speak Turkish.

Yes, how surprising.

Mavi.

Mavi, wait, wait, wait!

That's actually impressive.

Yadigar, you've done it again.

Haven't you learned anything at all?

Mom, what--

-Your mother's just a little confused. -Confused, huh?

Your grandmother came to me and offered me money to break up with your father.

Because I wasn't good enough for her. She wanted someone with higher status.

That's just not true.

Mavi, let's just go, okay? Please, you can trust me. Mavi.

Mavi, don't believe in their fairy tales!

-Mavi! -Mavi, please!

What a great job there, Aynur.

Mavi, wait a second.

-Mavi, just hold on! Hold on! -Let me go!

Hey, you heard her. Let her go. What is this?

-Kent, I can defend myself. -Of course. I don't doubt it, Mavi.

I know how strong you are.

Hey! Mavi, you have to decide now.

-Okay, stop it, all right? -Huh?

Yes, our first meeting was something Yadigar arranged.

What?

But what happened between us these last few days…

-It was all real. You know it was. -What?

Mavi…

When will Can be given the details about your balloon flight together, hmm?

What goddamn balloon flight, huh?

HIGH SOCIETY ROMANCE!

And these photos are all really beautiful. Wow.

It's awfully romantic, I would say.

Can, I didn't kiss him, I swear! It's not what you think it is!

It's not what I think? I can see it right over there!

-Hey! Don't yell at her. -I shouldn't yell?

-Can! -You think I'm yelling?

-Get your hands off me! -Guys, please just stop fighting!

-Can! Can! -Hey, stop! Stop it, you guys!

Can!

Ay, ay, ay. The beautiful cake is ruined.

Güney, after all that talking, you must need a drink.

Champagne, for instance?

-Get lost. -You're such children.

Mavi…

I…

I don't need this anymore.

Unbelievable.

Mavi.

I, uh… I'm really, really sorry.

Me too, for all of it.

I'm…

-I need to speak to you. -I thought so.

I also need to speak to you.

Caroline will make sure nobody talks about what happened here.

And the press aren't going to report on it.

So you mustn't be concerned about it.

You think I'm worried about that?

I guess you never really cared after all about how I feel,

about our family.

I put my trust in you.

But to you, it's just about control,

about what everyone thinks, how the company's doing.

It seems I didn't know you at all.

I saw you throw your hands in the air And say a prayer

Your eyes closed Your nose breathing in the salty air

There was nothing you could do To make me love you

Anymore

You said, "I despair in you"

I don't know feel like I'm going anywhere with you

I might as well Fling myself into your ocean

At least then I would be with you

And the ocean roared

And the ocean howled

And the ocean roared

And the ocean howled

You remind me of the sultan who built the Maidens' Tower,

the one who did everything in his power to take control his daughter's destiny.

I was so happy to get to know you and to get to know my Turkish side.

I was so happy to finally be part of a big family.

But because of your lies, we've both lost what was most important to us.

For you, your son and granddaughter.

For me, Can, who doesn't love me anymore.

So you jumped down From the cliff you'd climbed to

Into paradise that lay below you

I could only stay And let my tears fall in the ocean

And the ocean roared

And the ocean howled

And the ocean roared

And the ocean howled

By the way, Yadigar reached out to me recently.

She said Leyla's all set to become her next successor now.

I heard something about Can.

He's taking a break from the law firm.

He's travelling starting tomorrow.

So you're positive I don't need to water your plants?

You know, I can take care of them until you come back.

All right, man.

-You can have the apartment. -Really?

Hi, letter for you.

-Great. Thanks a lot. -Sure thing.

What is that?

Yadigar sent it.

"I've made a lot of mistakes, and this is another one too."

You and Can have every right to be angry with me,

but I don't want you to lose him.

He loves you.

"Not for all the money in the world."

Mavi, he's flying out today.

What are you waiting for?

Go! Go!

Can!

Is she crazy?

What… Mavi?

Sorry, man.

You know her?

-Mavi, what's going on? -Can…

-Did something happen? -Nothing.

-Huh? -I made a huge mistake!

And I'm sorry.

I…

I risked what we had because I wanted to be part of this family so badly.

I… I couldn't shake this strange feeling something was wrong,

but I see what was missing the whole time was really you.

And then I pushed you away, but you just wanted to help me.

I fell for all their obvious lies and got lost in a fantasy land.

And then I did something I never imagined I would do.

I let your hand slip out of mine.

I'm so sorry, Can.

I know…

I've hurt you, and I can't undo all that pain.

And I'm seeing now that…

when I look into your eyes, that's it.

That's what it feels like. I finally reached a true home.

The most amazingly kind person I know is you.

I want every new adventure to begin with my hand in yours.

Okay?

I really love you, Can.

I really love you too.

-I want to marry you. -No way!

-What? -I mean, yeah!

-Yeah? -Yes! Yeah!

-Yeah? Yeah? -Yeah!

-Yeah! Yeah! -Yeah!

Congratulations, you guys!

Hey, DJ, where's the music? We want to dance here!

She said yes! Congrats!

-My darling Mavi! -Mavi, come over here already!

Come dance with us!

Come on, Mom!

Nora!

Oh, no!

Come on, Mavi! Come on!

Oh, what a view
