[gentle piano music playing]

The plate number of the car responsible

for running over the neighborhood cat is 34 AU 35.

And Hussan the grocer dumped his trash on the street again.

Also, Kaan from Huzur Apartments stole Sibel's marbles yesterday,

and then ran off with them.

[sighs] I'm very sorry, sir.

Hi, Mukadder. Come in. I was just hearing Sevgi's report.

Sevgi, you have to stop. We've gone through this so many times.

-Why don't you just ever listen? -Mom, somebody has to do this, okay?

I'll look into each of them.

But don't come again without telling your mom.

When you grow up, you can become a prosecutor.

Then we'll do this for real. Do we have a deal?

But what about finding who killed my dad? Can we do that?

We're looking for him. We'll find him eventually.

It's been four years already. Sevgi asks about her father daily.

Are we gonna have justice be served?

[gentle music continues]

[man] As will be set in the court's official decision,

since it has been established that the defendant

is found guilty of sexual abuse of a minor,

the court sentences him to 15 years in prison.

The court further rules that the defendant's detention shall continue.

The defendant maintains the right to appeal.

You're dismissed.

[Ada] According to Einstein, the most important question

humankind faces is this…

"Is the universe a friendly place?"

ANOTHER SELF

[music fades]

[Fiko] All right. We're coming down the new ramp.

-Yay! -[Fiko] Here we go!

-[Muko] Bravo. -[Sevgi] Yay!

Easy.

All right, if everyone is ready, Halime is here.

-[Fiko] Yeah! -[group exclaims]

-Welcome, dear! -Welcome, Halime!

-Glad you're here, Halime. -[all] Aww!

This family's a big one, and it's yours.

Everyone wants to meet you. They're excited.

Halime dear, I'm Auntie Leyla.

-Sevgi's kind of like my older sister. -"Little sister."

You're definitely the baby.

[Fiko and Leyla laugh]

-And this is Auntie Ada. -This woman's out of her mind.

She's a big sister to Sevgi.

-I'm the older sister… You're lucky. -Yeah. I got off easy.

As you can see, your aunts are really fun ladies.

And plus, they're so gorgeous.

-Aw! You're the beautiful one. -Aw! Sweetie.

-Yes, you're so beautiful, aren't you? -[Leyla] Welcome.

My dear granddaughter. All of us set the table for you.

-Why don't you come eat with us? -[Ada] Come on.

-[Muko] Everyone, to the table. -[group chanting] Come eat!

Come eat! Come eat! Come eat!

[group cheers]

-Amazing! -[Leyla] Whoo!

-Yes, Halime! -[Sevgi] Oh, welcome, baby.

-Mwah. -We're so glad you're here.

[music ends]

How's operation "African Dream"?

Good. We talk every day, so…

He's camping at Kilimanjaro.

How perfect.

[sighs] That man's sexy. Thoughtful too.

-[laughs] -That type of guy is something special.

Enjoy yourself, baby.

And what about you?

[huffs] Erdem is working on a boat.

-He's been living there for now. -Good.

Like, it'll be that way till the man's able to pull his act together.

By the way, Yorgos and I… I think I figured it out.

-Oh, you did? -[glass clinking]

Everyone, we've got news to share with you on this special day

while we're here welcoming Halime to the family.

-[Sevgi] Mom? -[romantic music playing]

[Rıza sighs]

My dear friends, thanks to all of you, it feels like I was completely reborn.

I'm so grateful for that.

My doctor, Ada, I especially wanted to thank you for this.

You helped me and supported me throughout my recovery,

both for my body and my mind.

-Thank you. -You deserve credit for your recovery.

So to make a long story short,

uh, since I'm now a new man,

by God's permission and his prophet's word,

Sevgi, I'd love to have a blessing from you

because I want to marry your mother, right away!

-[all gasp] -[Fiko] Dad?

-[Ada] Did anyone know about this? -[Leyla] No!

What's going on?

-[Rıza sighs] -Oh, really?

We've been talking about it for a while.

And since Halime is now, uh, our new addition,

we thought doing this now made the most sense.

That it'd be better. Not just for us. It's a good thing for all of us.

-Look, um… -[Muko] Yes, dear?

Since the day I was born, I've been the center of everything.

But now I'm sure you're choosing what you want in your heart.

What's best for you.

Mr. Rıza, I'm so grateful that you see how beautiful of a woman my mother is.

Since these young people are in love and they wanna get married,

the best thing to do is for us to give our blessing to them.

-[group exclaims] -Give her the ring!

Give her the ring! Give her the ring!

[Leyla gasps]

-[Muko sighs] -[Leyla] Wow!

[Fiko] Congratulations.

-[Muko] Ooh! I have a present for you. -A present?

How romantic, Muko.

[Muko and Rıza chuckle]

-[Ada] Oh, it's lovely. -[Leyla] It's wonderful.

-It's so great, thank you. -[Ada and Leyla] Oh, Muko…

-[Fiko] To your health. Congratulations. -[clapping]

-Bravo! -Cheers. Thank you, son.

-[Leyla] Cheers! -[Sevgi] Welcome, baby.

[music fades]

[Sevgi] Let me get your plate ready.

-[Halime gasps] -Oh. Don't worry. It's no problem, dear.

We'll clean it off right now. Okay, sweetie? It's not a big deal.

[crying] My dress is torn.

-Oh, don't cry, sweetie. -[Muko] It's no big deal.

[Sevgi] Honey, it was just a little worn there.

That's why it got torn, but we'll get you into a new dress and get you changed.

-[Fiko] We'll get changed and come back. -[Leyla] No tears, baby.

-No tears. -[Fiko] Come on. Let me take you. [grunts]

Don't worry. We bought a lot of new dresses for you anyway.

We can try them on, hm? And Muko can sew this up.

How does that sound?

For some reason, she never takes it off.

-I better go check. -Okay.

She always keeps the dress on? What happened?

["Zeytin Ağaçları" playing]

[Leyla] I think you probably finished enough for now, Yorgos.

[both chuckle softly]

It looks great.

[romantic music dies down]

But it's time to stop now.

I came here to ask if you'd help me with a favor.

Let's plant these together 'cause I need your help.

[chuckles softly]

[romantic duet continues]

[sighs softly]

[sighs] Mm.

[Leyla] Yorgos.

[duet fades]

Me and Erdem are gonna break up.

[Leyla sighs]

But nothing can happen with you.

I have to spend time with my kids.

I'm gonna go to university for my degree.

I promised myself that I'd go back to school.

So then, um, after you and I plant these,

that'll be the end of it.

[Yorgos chuckles sadly]

The issue that happens with so many people who wake up every day unhappy,

with all of them, is that they never once get the opportunity to meet themselves.

Congratulations, Leyla.

Because now you know yourself.

[tender music playing]

Well, there's another wise proverb I always lived by.

And it goes, "Better late than never."

-[tender music swells] -[exhales sharply]

I wouldn't have been able to go on with my life if I never knew how that felt.

But that's all. I'm sorry. That's it.

-[giggles] -[chuckles]

Farewell, boss lady.

[tender music fades]

Doctor Ada, these are for you.

-Thank you. -You're welcome.

-[bright music rises] -[chuckles softly]

[cell phone chimes]

I'm not sure what the weather's like up on the mountain,

but down here, I just got a bit of sunshine.

[Ada] Thank you so much. I'm really missing you too.

Miss Zeynep, welcome.

Hello. I got the tests that you ordered, Ms. Ada.

Let's see. Your vitals are looking normal.

So we can begin the treatment now.

We measure cortisol levels before and after the session

to see if there are any changes in the nervous system.

[bright music continues]

[man] I get panic attacks.

I know that your expertise is a little different.

But we lost our son in a car accident years ago.

So, maybe it's related?

[Ada] You lost your son in a traumatic way.

And your pain is still fresh. How about we start there?

[Songül] I wanted to see you after talking to Miss Sevgi.

I was diagnosed with breast cancer four years ago.

They told me a double mastectomy was the only way.

But everything's fine now. I've recovered.

But I'm curious, why did this happen?

I feel obligated to delve deeper into this.

We lost my mother and grandmother to cancer as well.

Do you think it's genetics? Or is it my destiny?

So if I'm hearing you correctly, all of these losses stem from your mother.

[Canan chuckles]

-Goodbye. See you soon. -Bye. See you again.

-Doctor Ada. -Hi, Doctor Canan.

-Doctor Ada. -[Ada] Mm. I thought you were in Istanbul.

Even out there, everyone's talking about Dr. Ada, so I thought I'd check on her.

-I'm glad you did. Sit down. -How are you?

-I'm fine. How are you? -Fine. I brought something for you.

Mm, thank you.

This really turned out great.

It's so beautiful. I can't stop looking around.

Ooh, this looks delicious.

Let's do the tour. Then we'll have dessert.

-All right. -Let's go.

That sounds great. [sighs]

-[Ada] Let me show you my office, there. -Okay.

[calming music playing]

[Sevgi] My beautiful baby, let's get you out of this. Look.

How 'bout we take a bath and put on a fresh one?

Well, would you let me know why you wanna keep it on?

[breathing shakily]

'Cause, um… my mom's the one who made it.

[mournful music playing]

[crying softly] It's the only thing I have left from her.

I can't take it off. Please don't get mad.

Love, look. Um, I…

I'd never get mad at you.

Your mom did a great job with that.

That dress is so beautiful.

Mm. Don't cry, my love.

Don't worry, we'll take care of it.

Just give me one minute, and I'm gonna be right back, Halime.

-[sniffles] -[door opens]

[door closes]

She won't take it off.

That dress was made by her mother.

[quietly] Oh, man.

But it's all torn. There's no way we can even sew it together.

So I'm not sure what to do.

What you said gives me an idea, but…

Thank you very much for trusting us and putting on your pajamas.

[Sevgi] Halime, my beautiful girl.

Look, I'm gonna tell you a story, okay?

This, the man in the picture, is my real father, Aram.

But I never got the chance to meet him.

He died before I was born.

And this is my Father Halil.

And he wasn't my real father, I know that.

But the man did everything in his power

to make sure Baby Sevgi was healthy, loved, and safe.

Neither Fiko nor myself,

neither of us will ever try to replace

what your real parents did for you, you hear me?

[Fiko] And we're so grateful for them.

And the reason is they made a perfect kid when they raised you.

And we feel like we're the luckiest in the world.

Because you're here with us.

And that's the truth.

-I mean it. -[Sevgi] And you know what?

One day that dress is gonna be too small on you to fit. Know why?

You'll grow into a very strong, tall, beautiful woman.

But your mother's hands that sewed that dress for you will never leave.

You'll be held in your father's arms forever.

You're going to feel their strength for the rest of your life, Halime.

Okay, love.

[tender music rises]

And if you're okay with it… we have an offer we wanna make you.

[Halime sighs]

[sewing machine whirring]

-[tender music fades] -[birds singing]

[grunts softly]

[bright music plays]

[sighs]

[door opens]

-Hey, honey. -Hey, honey.

Good morning. Look at all the dresses in my room.

Yeah. What do you think? You like it?

Ah.

Look.

Right here, each of them is stitched with a part of the dress

that your mother made you.

[Fiko] You wanna try them on?

[Fiko gasps playfully] All right.

You guys go try. Show me after you try them on.

-[music fades] -[Sevgi exclaims]

Wanna put this one on?

Mm-hmm? All right, then.

Let's start with the red. Come here, baby.

[gentle music playing]

[Deniz] Lean back. [sighs]

Now, we're going to take our feet back

and shift into downward-facing dog.

Now, bring your head forward.

Warrior pose.

[chuckles] That's great.

Hands down again, and bring them down to your left foot.

I have some news.

-My job application was successful. -Hmm?

I'm gonna give dance lessons to kids at an art center.

-Are you kidding me? -[laughs]

-I'm proud of you. -Thank you.

I really am.

It's thanks to you.

It's in İzmir. But they got me a place to stay.

-They took care of everything. -That's great.

-Yeah. -When are they bringing you?

Well, they want me to come out there as soon as I can.

So you're leaving? What do you mean?

I mean, I thought I'd spend some time with you first.

Oh! [chuckles]

-There's one more thing, though. -Hm?

This Australian lady named Sally messaged me.

-[music fades] -Hm?

She wants to talk to me about something important about

something to do with our family.

She wants us to go.

-Our family? -Mm-hmm.

Sally?

It kinda scared me a little.

-Hm. -I don't know.

Like, what if we have another sister?

-Stop it, come on. No. -[both laugh]

You never know. If Dad went over there, we could have one.

-[Deniz laughs] -Pretty sure he wasn't.

No. Australia's so far.

[chuckles] I don't think it's the end of the world

if we found out we had another sister or brother, you know, Ada?

-No. -No, thank you.

Think you could handle another sibling?

[both laugh]

[music fades]

-Canan and I had a talk. -[Sevgi and Leyla] Hmm?

She's working with me at the clinic now.

-[Sevgi] Ah! -That's great.

But I thought that I should maybe find a few doctors,

bring a few more therapists on board.

Expand a little. Build it up. What do you guys think?

[Leyla] Love, if you're thinking about bringing in a couple more doctors,

then that clinic isn't big enough. We'll have to look for a new place.

We would, but Özgür had thought about that too.

You know, they, um… They have a ton of initiatives for expansion.

They have funds you can apply for to support that.

This clinic can transform into an institute.

You know what? I take my hat off to Özgür's proposal.

I really must admit.

I think that this Mr. Özgür is really starting to grow on me.

-He's so amazing. -Ah, well. Mm. He's growing on me too.

[Leyla and Sevgi laugh] Ooh!

All right, the paperwork's easy.

Don't worry. I'll take care of all of that.

But we have to do something first.

We have to prepare, like, a really spectacular presentation.

-You're right. -[Leyla] Here's what I think.

My suggestion?

You have to present them a story that's relatable to them.

I think we have it already.

[bright music playing]

What? What is it?

-[Ada] Hm. -What's, uh… [scoffs]

You mean me?

Stop. You're giving me goosebumps. I have chills right now.

-Stop, come on. [chuckles] -Girl, you're perfect for this. You stop.

Your story is so inspiring to everybody.

[gasps]

Is it okay with you?

No, sweetheart. Come on. You being serious?

You wanna know if it's okay with me? Of course it's okay, Ada!

I've kept the reports, I've kept track of every treatment,

every supplemental exercise we've ever done.

And I'll be there already, so it's perfect.

Okay, then. Let's do it like this. I'll handle the presentation for them.

-I will make the charts and the visuals. -All right.

All right, and I'll take care of all the permits and paperwork.

You can trust me. I got them.

So everything's covered.

-You think of a name for it. -It's perfect.

-[exclaiming] -Okay, babes.

-Let's get to work. -Oh, I can't believe this!

[group exclaims]

-Mwah. -[all laugh]

[energetic Spanish guitar music playing]

GETTING EQUIPMENT FIND HELP

OCTOBER 1 THE BIG DAY

[no audible dialogue]

[passionate music grows louder]

[up-tempo song ends]

[Ada] My presentation for the funding application's almost ready.

Ah. So it's all happening?

Mm. Thanks to the girls.

[inhales sharply] Özgür.

I don't know if the funding is ever gonna get approved,

but I wouldn't have ever even tried if it weren't for you.

-Thank you for that. -That funding's going to get approved.

You'll see.

By the way, did you open your inbox, my love?

-No. You send something? -Could you check?

SERENGETI_TICKET.PDF

-What'd you do? -You know what I did.

You do your presentation.

Then you can get yourself on a plane to come over

because we gotta celebrate you.

[upbeat music playing]

[Ada] Mm.

How could I come there? The clinic and the clients…

And, um, the preparations if we get approval, and…

[on laptop speaker] Ada, it's just for a week.

Picture it, though.

Just you and me, the stars, the Serengeti, all the wildlife…

[Ada chuckles]

Um, I'm done trying to describe this place to you just over the phone.

Just for a week. Why don't you think about it?

[takes a deep breath]

So, I'll be there. Once the presentation's finished up.

Um, I apologize. One more time for me? Uh, the phone was cutting out a little.

Once I'm done with the presentation, I can come visit you. [laughs]

Oh. That's the best news I've heard today.

-I'll see you soon. -See you, darling.

[Ada chuckles softly]

[Ada] Have you ever seen a bird that's able to fly with only one wing?

When you separate the human body and its spirit for thousands of years,

that's the result you get.

If you try to fly with one wing, you won't be able to.

Two 10th-century doctors, Abu Zayd al-Balkhi and Haly Abbas,

set forth a revolutionary hypothesis, stating the root of all illnesses

lies in the interaction between one's mind and the body.

So why have we been ignoring this hypothesis in modern treatments?

Why have we ignored this for a thousand years?

The goal of this institution

is providing the patients with a treatment option

where they can have each wing, of both the mind and of the body,

exist side by side.

And now, allow me to present somebody who healed through this system.

Sevgi Solmaz Seyhan.

Sevgi here was a patient with stage four metastatic liver cancer.

During the course of her disease, her tumors recurred twice

during a span of five years.

Sevgi has now made a full recovery

and is enjoying her life as a lawyer in Ayvalık.

Recently, she became a foster mother to a little girl,

an earthquake survivor named Halime.

Fiko. Fiko, hold on tight to her.

[Ada] Sevgi is the inspiration for this project.

Perhaps she will inspire thousands more.

-[Muko] Thank you. -So nice. Thank you.

I have to head into the office for a minute now.

-Didn't you have the day off today? -I did. This just might be important.

-Sorry. I have to step out. -Go take care of it.

For a minute. 'Kay? Don't wait on me to have dinner.

-[Muko] Okay, go. We'll be here. -I'll be right back.

Okay, tell them what we did at the carnival today.

-We rode the carousel. -You rode the carousel with your dad?

And you weren't scared of it?

-Yeah, it was a little tiny bit scary. -Mwah.

-Oh. -We were being really careful, though.

[Muko] Come on, let's have dinner. Take care of your business and come back.

-[Rıza] You had a good time? -[Muko] Sounds really fun.

-[Halime] Yeah, it's so much fun. -[group laughs]

You guys?

-See you later. -[Muko] See you, dear.

Come back quickly.

[cat meowing]

[gentle music fades]

[sounds distort]

-[blade slices] -[Sevgi gasps, groans]

[low, ominous music playing]

[Sevgi groans]

[moaning weakly]

[gasps]

[groans, gasps]

[swirling wind echoing]

[loud bang echoes]

[groans]

[somber music rises]

[somber music fades slowly]

Hey, girl. What's up? How did everything go?

Girl! They loved the presentation.

Of course they did.

That's my bestie!

You're the boss!

Sevgi know yet?

-I thought you two were together. -No, we aren't.

Leyla, One sec. Fiko's calling.

Hello?

-[mournful music rises] -[sounds distort]

[ambulance siren wailing]

[Fiko] Sevgi!

[panting] Hang on, Sevgi!

Sevgi!

Hang on, Sevgi, please.

Sir, please stay here.

[music grows somber]

[Fiko breathing shakily]

God, please. God, please. We need your help.

-[monitor beeping] -[music fades slowly]

[Ada] Prep a new one.

[gentle piano music playing]

Fiko. What'd they say?

-They found the guy who did it. -[Muko gasps]

He didn't tell them what his motive was.

He was under the influence.

[whimpers softly]

[Leyla sighs]

[music peaks, dies down]

[sighs]

How's Sevgi? She all right?

OPERATING ROOM

[Deniz] Ada.

We did everything we could.

She had intense internal bleeding in her spleen, so I had to remove it.

We'll keep her in the ICU in case of any complications.

It's best you head home. Get some rest.

[tearfully] And pray for her.

[Fiko] Ada?

[mournful music playing]

[elevator bell chimes]

[crying softly]

[restrained sob]

[sobbing loudly]

[birds calling]

[breeze blowing gently]

-[mournful music fades] -[Ada] Fiko, only five minutes.

Her immune system is weak.

[monitor beeping]

[respirator hissing]

[Fiko] My Sevgi.

My world.

My one and only.

[tender music rises]

[Fiko sighs]

Hang in there.

Hang on, my love.

You've overcome so much, Sevgi.

We can get through this together too, my love.

[Sevgi, weakly] Fiko.

[Fiko] What is it? What is it, love?

[Sevgi] I wanna go home.

[Fiko] Hm? We have to stay here, though.

Sevgi?

[Sevgi] Just take… take me home now.

[Fiko] Okay. Don't use all your energy.

I'm right here.

[doors open]

[Muko and Leyla breathing shakily]

-She's conscious. -[Muko] Oh, thank God.

-Ada. -Oh, wow. Thank God.

-Sevgi wants to go home. -Fiko, that's not possible.

Sevgi has to be monitored.

-She said that she wants to go home. -What? She wants to… What--

[Ada] Fiko!

-Ada, look. Sevgi said… -[Muko] Well, what did she say?

"I'm awake now. It's my right."

"They gotta let me go home if I say that I want to."

Ada, tell me what to do.

If I have to build a hospital in my backyard, I'm going to.

-'Cause Sevgi wants to go home. -I'm not letting her leave.

-It's not possible. -We have to.

We have no other choice.

[Muko breathing shakily]

[Leyla gasps softly]

[Muko sobbing]

[breeze blowing gently]

[bright music rises]

[weakly] Halime.

Come. Come, my dear.

[Leyla sighs]

Don't be scared, my baby. It'll be okay.

Look, Fiko is here.

Granny Muko is here.

Grandpa Rıza is here.

Your aunties are here.

Don't be scared.

If you… [sniffles] …see my mom and dad up there,

can you tell them hi for me?

[crying] And let them know I'm doing okay?

-[sobbing] -[Leyla sobs softly]

Of course. I promise.

Of course.

[sighs deeply]

[stirring orchestral music rises]

[swirling wind howls gently]

[bright chimes playing]

[no audible dialogue]

-[heartbeat slows] -[shimmering tones echo]

[Fiko gasps]

Sevgi?

-[Muko] Sevgi? -Lift her head up. Lift her.

[Fiko] Ada! Do something, Ada!

-[music swells] -Ada, do something!

-Sevgi! -[Leyla] Sevgi, come on!

-Sevgi! -[Fiko] Ada, do something!

[voices fade out]

-[music swells] -[airy vocalizations rise]

[Ada] Isn't death just as natural as birth in the cycle of nature?

However, while we welcome birth with joy, it's hard to welcome death as naturally.

Because accepting a loved one who is no longer with us

is the biggest pain in life.

[sobbing]

[music fades slowly]

-["Son Arzum" playing] -[sighs softly]

[wistful ballad continues]

[crying softly]

[praying softly]

[sobbing]

[echoing] Sevgi!

[music fades]

[melancholic music playing]

[Ada] When a loved one dies,

the pain we feel is not just about saying goodbye.

It makes us question the meaning of life.

The meaning of a human, the meaning of why we're here.

What becomes of all the effort we put in to recover, to mend,

to develop, to be better, to be happier?

What do our contributions mean after we die?

[sobbing]

ONE WEEK LATER

[music fades]

[Özgür] I found this in the trash.

You got the funding approved.

Are you really giving up after all this?

What's even the point now?

I did all of this because of Sevgi.

I followed her here to make sure she would recover.

[sighs]

Well…

Look where Sevgi is now.

[gentle music playing]

Listen, Ada. You did your best.

[sniffles]

I could've refused when she wanted to leave the hospital.

I have no more faith left in anything now, Özgür.

Not in life.

Nor in justice.

I feel totally helpless.

Sevgi deserved better.

Muko deserved better.

Fiko.

Halime.

Nobody deserved this. [sniffles]

Ada.

I know how much it hurts to lose a sister.

It's always going to feel like something's missing.

It's never going to be the same.

You are never going to be the same.

But you'll always feel your love for her.

Remember, you said that to me.

Maybe the bond between you and Sevgi will empower you to have… more strength.

Give yourself some time.

Don't make big decisions now. You hear me?

-I need a favor from you, Özgür. -Of course.

Take me to go see Sevgi's murderer in prison.

[somber music playing]

Ali, I can tell you've been suffering.

Did you know that Sevgi was trying to adopt for three years?

A month ago, she finally found a child.

Because she followed through whenever she made her mind up.

And she always made sure to take responsibility for it.

What's your favorite meal, Ali?

[softly] Mücver.

Sevgi would have cooked you a delicious mücver if she met you.

Sevgi cooked everything special.

She loved hosting and entertaining.

[both crying softly]

If you ever met her, you would've loved her.

Everyone who ever met her loved her.

[sobbing silently]

[somber music swells]

[Ali sobbing]

[Ada] Is the universe friendly?

Maybe the universe doesn't have to be friendly.

Maybe there's an unexpected strength

and a healing peace in owning our experiences

and accepting all the good and bad as a part of life.

[sighs softly]

He's Yakup's nephew.

He forced him to do it for revenge.

He wants to come testify about it in court.

[Ada sighs]

[somber music fades slowly]

[gentle music playing on video]

[Sevgi] Just look how beautiful this place is.

Okay, it's not as beautiful as Cunda, but still, the view's amazing.

Take a second to just be quiet and listen to this song with me, please.

I admit, even though I don't know what it means,

this song still really moved me.

So I just, um, decided to film this little message

for all you guys to watch.

You know, like, in case I don't get better,

and I end up not making it.

I expect that you'll find this message on my phone.

You know how I always used to say that…

That I feel empty right here, like how I have some kind of void right in here?

Yeah.

That void is all gone. It's filled up.

I'm full to the brim now. I thought you should know that.

-Mom. Mommy. -[Muko breathing shakily]

[Sevgi] I know you're really going through it right now.

And I understand that. But listen to me.

The bond between us will stay strong forever.

Because it was you.

You brought me into this world and raised me into the woman I am.

Ada, Sweetheart.

Ada, us folks who struggle with their health really need you, love.

You know that, don't you?

You can't use my passing as an excuse and give up, okay?

Or I swear I'll kill you.

You've put in too much,

and you've gone too far now to give up anyways.

I've got my eyes on you still, so don't you dare give up.

Ada, my love.

Maybe it's time for you to find a nice companion

that you can spend your life with, huh?

Enough with this damn isolation thing. It's time.

And not to meddle in your life too much, 'cause I know this isn't my place,

but wouldn't it be nice if you had a baby, Ada? Huh?

Why don't you give it a shot while you're still young?

Leyla, my love.

All of us need your sunshine,

your never-ending energy, your glow.

It's so important to all of us. I hope you know that.

Swear to me that you are never gonna give up on any of your dreams.

You have enough courage to do whatever it is that you set your mind to.

Girl, you have the fire to create anything you want.

Like, are you kidding me?

[kisses]

-And Fiko. -I love you.

I've never met anyone who loves as beautifully as you do.

I feel like I live the luckiest life ever 'cause you are always so supportive.

You love me, including my scars, my weaknesses, and all.

And there's one more thing.

Fiko, you can still be a dad after I pass on.

And it'd make me feel so glad to know that you're a father.

My love, I'm already a father, though.

Because I'm Halime's father now.

[Sevgi] And don't forget this, okay?

No matter what, no matter what happens,

no matter what, I swear to you guys,

I love you all so, so much.

I'm never gonna stop loving you guys for the rest of my life.

[Ada sniffs]

Okay. Now, I'll have you guys listen to the song with me.

And I think we've done enough sitting around for now, right?

Come on. Shall we dance?

Leyla, I know you'll get up. Come on, someone dance with me.

[sighs deeply]

[Sevgi] Oh, come on. Here, record this.

[Leyla laughs on video]

[Spanish guitar music playing]

[women singing in Spanish]

[nostalgic pop song continues]

[wistful song fades]

[in Australian accent] I've been looking for you for years.

My grandfather, John Patrick Morgan, he was in the Gallipoli War.

And your grandfather Salih saved him.

And this is his water bottle.

[gentle music playing]

[Sally] My grandfather has left you part of his heritage.

It's not much, but it is yours.

If he hadn't saved my grandfather, then none of us would be here now.

So, please accept this.

[Ada] Hm.

My sister and I will accept this with honor and gratitude.

And we will also honor Mr. John Patrick and his legacy.

[Ada] We are not the victims of our genetics.

We are not the victims of our ancestors' traumas,

or of our own.

On the contrary, we are the continuation of the legacy passed onto us.

Is it possible to be reborn from our ashes,

no matter what we go through?

Is it possible to make dried branches green again?

-[Leyla] Well, hello there. -[chuckles]

I'm so glad you took over this place.

I, um… I got, um…

my university diploma this morning.

So I hoped that you maybe had a nice table for two for a celebration?

-[tender music rises] -[Yorgos chuckles]

[tender music swells]

[Ada] It is possible to take a route we've never been on before.

To stretch, to expand, to embrace as we share our experiences with others.

[no audible dialogue]

[no audible dialogue]

[Ada] It's possible to keep partaking in life's miracles,

despite its sharpest pain.

-It turned out great. -Hey, you guys.

-Thank you. Great job, Ada. -Thank you for coming.

-Oh, thank you, guys. -I saw what you did with Halime…

[indistinct chatter continues]

[Ada sighs]

-Mm-hmm. -Go to the girls.

[both chuckle]

[Ada] Mm.

-[Leyla] Ada! Hi! -My babes.

Ada, good job.

-How are you? -Good.

-You gotta be excited! -Excited.

-Yeah, I'm excited. -It's so great.

-We're about to start in a bit. -Good luck.

[Ada] Under these olive trees, with thousands of years of knowledge,

nature flows from every corner with healing power.

The effects of our emotions on our bodies were identified centuries ago,

so don't you think it's our responsibility to start our own healing journey?

-Bravo! -[Leyla] Whoo!

[joyful guitar music playing]

Firstly, I feel so grateful.

So many people should be thanked for this.

I want to thank my mom and dad and their mothers and fathers.

And every ancestor who made it possible for me to be here today.

And to the women who have stood right by me

through thick and thin since the day we met.

Sevgi and Leyla.

To Muko, who always guided me with her motherly hands.

To Sevgi's loving husband, Fiko.

To the late Mr. Zaman, who opened my world to a whole new perspective.

He inspired me.

To Carla.

To Deniz, my sister.

And Özgür, to you.

Thank you all.

To everyone who was in my life to witness this journey with me.

To everything, and to all of you, I thank you.

And last but not least,

I'm so thankful for Sevgi.

I'm grateful.

This whole thing started because of her.

And will continue because of her.

I'm dedicating The Olive Tree Love and Life Institute to Sevgi's memory.

-May it be a blessing to us. -[guests cheer and applaud]

Whoo!

["Sen Benim Şarkılarımsın" playing]

FOREVER IN OUR HEARTS

[nostalgic ballad continues]

Oh, Ada, did you get here early?

Oh! Hey, guys. Yeah. I wanted to talk to Sevgi for a while.

-Shame on you. Should've told me. -[Ada kisses] Mavi, dear.

-How are you, Ada? -I'm fine. How are you?

-Sarp, how are you? -[Muko] Here you guys are!

-Looking great. -[Yorgos] Let me take Mavi.

-[Ada] Muko! -[Muko] Hi, love.

[Ada] How are you, Mr. Rıza? Doing well?

Oh, the princess is here!

Good to see you, Leyla dear.

Oh, Papa Fiko. I forgot the drawing at home.

No, you didn't, my flower.

Look, your drawing's right here, sweetheart.

-Oh, did you draw that? -Yeah, I did.

-It's so beautiful. Wow. -It's so good, honey. Great.

-Mwah. Welcome, my love. -Should I put the flowers down?

-Come say hi. -Did you see her drawing?

[Muko] Come here, Halime.

-[Deniz] Hi, guys. -[Ada] Welcome.

-[Deniz laughs] -[Ada] Me first.

[Leyla] Come here, love.

[Ada] You know what? I love those flowers.

-So pretty. -[Fiko] Muko, my dear.

[Yorgos] Look, Mavi! She drew that.

-[Leyla] We were just talking about her. -[Ada] My love. Baby.

[Leyla] I could just eat you up. Chubby!

-[Ada kisses] -[Deniz] She's so sweet.

-[Deniz] Oh my goodness! How cute! -[Leyla] Rüzgâr is here.

Look, Aunt Leyla, Aunt Deniz.

[Leyla] She's just too cute.

Okay. Come here. Mommy missed you.

Oh, yes. My beautiful baby.

[Ada] I don't know if there's life after death,

but I do know there is love after death.
