So, tell me, how was your holiday?

My holiday was perfect.

-I met someone. -Who?

It was the most beautiful week of my life.

No, no. Just because of that one week....

It was the most beautiful winter. In fact, it was a little holiday escapade.

The stress of the whole year disappeared.

We went partridge hunting. Then we had a barbecue.

Weren't you vegetarian?

We went bathing.

We herded sheep.

We made flower-petal jam.

-He had a light touch, such a light touch. -We danced to romantic music.

In the rain too.

But when we said goodbye, it got all weird.

-When I asked for his phone number.... -He said, "I'm married."

"I'm going to take part in Survivor."

"I found out you don't need a visa to go to the Ukraine."

"I'm studying for the GED. I have to concentrate."

-He just suddenly ran away. -Even though it was a tiny escapade....

I can't forget that week. His name was....

Hakan Tasyapar.

Hakan Tasyapar.

Hakan Tasyapar.

Hakan Tasyapar.

Hasan Tastartar or something like that.

Tasaktartar?

Son, everybody's here. You're late. Where are you?

Hakan!

Hakan!

It's my last day of vacation. I'm going back to Istanbul tonight.

Hakan!

-I'll take those. -Let go, Hakan. Let go, Hakan. Let go!

I'll bring them back later. I'll bring them back.

What a guy you are, Hakan.

WALKING AROUND IN A DIVING SUIT IS FORBIDDEN

Hakan, what the heck are you doing?

-Are there people who wear this? -There are some, sometimes.

Come on. We'll take care of this later. Come on.

Pass! Pass!

Pass me the ball!

Where are you going, brother, where?

Goal!

What the heck are you doing, my boy?

-See you tonight. -All right, goodbye.

Brother Kudret.

Good work, brother.

Thanks. And there's Hakan....

First Kiss

They've already opened.

Brother-in-law. You're finished?

You've opened without me?

But, Hakan, the mayor was there, the prefect was there...

...the agricultural director was here. I had to cut the ribbon.

If the mayor was there, why did you cut the ribbon?

What is this?

-The ribbon. -Did you bite it or what?

Hakan, I forgot the scissors at home. I had no other choice.

It was difficult, but I finally managed.

This shop is doomed. It's doomed, I swear.

We'll have to redo the opening.

You opened the shop in this state?

Couldn't you tidy the loft up there?

I said, "He works from a home office. Don't be hard on him."

Besides, what about you, why were you late?

Hanky-panky!

Get out, kids. Your uncle and I have shameful things to discuss.

-What are you doing? -It's sex stuff. Get out.

-Don't get out, kids. -There's no sex stuff?

What are you saying, Dad?

Yes, there is. Get out. Come on,march!

Come on, my girl, come on.

You were with that blond from yesterday?

Why are you soaked, anyway?

Is that sweat?

Yes, it's sweat.

The phone's ringing. Meliha!

Meliha, the phone's ringing!

I'll get it.

-Not so good, this apprentice, huh? -Stop calling her "apprentice."

-Hakan Veterinary Medicine. -She is a trainee.

-Brother Hakan! -What is it?

Adriana is very sick. They want us to come.

Okay, I'll be right down.

Adriana?

It's a cow. Don't get all excited.

Come on. You're all done. Come on.

So is she very beautiful, this Adriana?

Come on, bro-in-law, leave me alone. I beg you, leave me the hell alone.

I'm gonna kiss ya, I tell ya, a-ha

Don't throw a tantrum, a-ha

Don't throw a tantrum, a-ha

Don't throw a tantrum

A tantrum against me

May 12th, 2017, I'm in a very good mood.

I assisted in the arrival into the world of yet another living being.

And now I'm on my way to attempt to photograph...

...the Houbara bustard, which is on the verge of extinction in Anatolia.

I am very well-prepared for this expedition.

I carefully checked the vital parts of my friend, my father's legacy.

Isn't that so, my friend?

Son of a bitch!

Son of a bitch!

I'm going to sell you, I swear.

I'm going to sell you. And don't you start pouting.

I'll buy a horse instead.

Good work, Uncle.

Thanks, Nephew. Thanks.

My stomach!

Boy. I'm starving.

I'm gonna kiss ya, I tell ya, a-ha Don't--

-Ah, Sister Lemide! -What is it?

-Sister Lemide! -What?

Stop it.

-Out of the way. -Thanks.

I'm exhausted.

I'm gonna kiss ya, I tell ya, a-ha Don't throw a--

All right, stop. I'm here. Right in front of you. Stop. Okay.

Ah, Mücahit!

You were this tall the last time I saw you.

I was this tall when I was born. You must have seen my ultrasound.

What do you want?

So you have organic Caucasian eggs with sweet paprika?

We can charge more for Caucasian eggs than for a pepper omelette.

In that case, make me...

...a tomato sandwich grilled on both sides.

-Toast with sauce. -With sauce?

Come over here, come!

Mücahit. Hey!

Teacher.

Here you go.

-Thank you, Sister Lemide. -Bon appétit.

You're looking at me?

-Am I looking at you? -Yes.

-Uncle, am I looking at you? -Yes.

Dear God.

I'm looking at the view.

You're looking at me?

Yes, Uncle, at you.

I'm looking at you.

You're so handsome that I changed my orientation of the last 30 years.

I assure you that it's you I'm looking at.

They call her "teacher." She must be in education.

I thought I'd go and talk to her...

...but what's the point?

I thought you were interested only in tourists, Brother Hakan.

Considering you never make a pass at me.

Meliha, I used to change your diapers, you know, so cut it out.

I think about her all the time.

It's not healthy. Stable relationships, that's not for me.

I'll never go back there. End of discussion.

Mücahit, come on, my boy, find me a chair. Go on!

You're insulting me, dear Hakan. I reserved this one for you.

Are you kidding me?

I've been working on this joke for years. What do you think? Funny, isn't it?

Here you go.

He gave me your chair, didn't he?

Here you go.

Here, my dear.

I wish we had kept eye contact.

If you want, you can have my tomato for the rear wheel of your bicycle.

Don't you need it?

Please. You might be able to help me get over a traumatic memory.

What traumatic memory is that?

I had a bicycle. I tied the rear wheel to a pole.

They left the wheel, but stole the rest.

For three days I cried, staring at the wheel by the pole.

What a shame. That's a real childhood trauma.

I was 25 years old.

It was a mountain bike.

A big, beautiful mountain bike, gone!

Gears on the steering, shock absorbers....

Sure, you'd cry if the bike had gears on the steering and shock absorbers.

All right, then. Give me that tomato slice.

Let's make the rear wheel.

We may be able to help you with your 25-year-old trauma.

And voilà!

-How is it? Are you feeling better? -Magnificent.

I'm feeling better, yes. I'm feeling much better.

I'm Bahar.

Spring has come early this year. How nice of it to have come.

And my name is Hakan.

Pleased to meet you.

Me too.

-Bon appétit. -You've lost your chair.

-Come and sit here. -I'm not disturbing you?

-No, why would you be disturbing me? -If you insist.

Let me sit, then.

Are you a tourist?

I passed over the formalities at the speed of light.

Yes. You passed over them quite fast. You're very talented.

I guess I passed over them too.

I passed. Teacher?

-You passed, you passed. -Yes.

-You know I'm a teacher, then. -I heard Sister Lemide mention it.

And you, your job involves dealing with animals?

If I'm getting the smell right, poultry-type animals.

I'm so sorry. I'm a veterinarian. I spent three days in a poultry house.

I took many showers, and yet....

My God. So the smell hasn't gone away.

It's no big deal. I like the smell of chicks.

Come on, teacher. Even hens don't like the smell of chicks.

I swear, I like it.

When I was a little girl, we had a huge poultry house.

My late mom was there all the time. She took very good care of it.

Then, she'd come home tired, exhausted, sore.

She'd give us our fruit.

We'd all sit on the sofa. Of course, I'd take the opportunity...

...to snuggle up to my mother.

I'd smell that chick smell. It would mix with the smell of my mother.

It was such a good smell!

It reminded me of her.

I can do you a favour, if you'd like, teacher.

You'd be making a great sacrifice.

It's so good. The smell of my mother....

Thank you.

Thank you.

What is that? "Organic Caucasian eggs with red paprika."

It's just my grandmother's pepper omelette!

Some fraud they're running here, for God's sake!

If you're done making fun of us, Mr Hakan, get out.

The bill is for two hours.

Teacher, you can stay the night if you'd like...

...but this cheeky guy's jokes are getting on my nerves.

I'm going to order some ice cream.

I want a soft-serve with a firm-serve cone.

Sister Lemide, I swear, I only said that to make Bahar laugh.

-You know I don't engage in wordplay. -Go on, beat it.

-Just say, "I'm not angry," and I'll leave. -Go on, beat it, crazy fool. Go on.

My God.

It's your fault. It's all because of you.

It's all because of your beautiful smile.

Tell me the truth. How many women have you said that to?

Words flow out of your mouth so professionally.

No, come on.

In fact, what you're saying is true, you know?

I often put together this kind of line.

It was like I was putting together a plan or setting the alarm clock.

But now...

...it's more like I'm putting together a connection...

...or even a dream.

Am I talking nonsense?

No.

But the timing is all wrong.

I'm going to hand in my resignation today. And then, I'm going to leave.

Your resignation?

And if I asked you why?

It's complicated. There's a ton of reasons, in fact.

But I'll be here a few more days. If you'd like to see me again, I mean.

Of course, of course, with great pleasure.

I'd give you my number...

...but my phone has not connected all morning. It must be out of order.

Tomorrow, here, at the same time?

Okay.

-Tomorrow. -Tomorrow.

Goodbye, then.

-I can give you a ride, if you want. -My car is here.

Goodbye.

This is your car?

How much do you charge to go to the city centre?

It seems like it was built out of the pieces of Noah's ark!

My late aunt left it to me.

I was joking.

It has personality.

Mine is old too, you see. That Jeep over there.

My aunt was my hero.

Peace be with her.

She lived in Germany.

Even with painting, she was the only one to encourage me.

Peace be with her.

She had a great personality.

You can tell by her car.

May she rest in paradise.

She worked very hard for all those years.

She dreamed of going into retirement.

What happened?

She died before she could retire, that poor woman.

We inherited the house where she was building her dreams.

And I'm driving the car of her dreams.

Peace be with her.

Stop. Bahar, I'm going to die.

I swear, I'll jump into the lake and drown myself.

I just wanted to make a joke and now I'm dying.

Where's your aunt's grave? Let's go recite the Fatiha over her.

Let's go and water the soil that's covering her.

"Noah's ark, Noah's ark." And now?

-Do you repent? -Yes!

It wasn't true, that story?

It's true. How can you laugh at such things?

I deserve a hug, I swear. My back is covered with sweat.

Tomorrow will never come.

Goodbye, then.

BURSA CITY COUNCIL - DIVING OFF THE ROCKS IS FORBIDDEN

Eftelya Nisanur, play nicely, my dears.

Yellowhead, close your ears. I have things to discuss with your uncle.

Hakan, my dear, now that we're alone. Just you and me. I was wondering...

...if you could give me some pointers...

...on the subject of ladies, huh? Stinger.

Don't call me "Stinger."

What should I call you? It's too small? You want me to call you "Patriot"?

"Scud."

How old are you, really?

Is it appropriate for you to talk like that?

Listen, Hakan...

...I was 16 years old when I married your older sister.

I stayed married for 30 years. I never even looked at another woman.

And she, what did she do?

She ran off with the first lover she found on Facebook, Hakan.

So I think anything would be appropriate for me.

But I don't know anymore, Hakan. You see, I'm all tense.

I'm all tense again, Hakan. Hakan. Don't do this to me.

Tell me things about the ladies. I'm way too tense, come on.

-What the hell are you doing? -You jackal! Hyena! Tell me!

Dad, what's that?

It's a-- My boy, this is...

...a dance from Bursa. The sword-and-shield dance.

Your uncle and I, we do it often, don't we? Get up, Hakan, up with you.

Uncle Hakan, yes, yes, hop! Come on!

-Check it out, 2:00. -Bravo, my boy, bravo.

-Look at 2 o'clock, Hakan. -What is it?

What do I do? Go and talk to her? What do you think?

You'd better hurry.

It seems she has another suitor.

Mevlüt Devrim, my own son.

First, my wife left me for another.

And now my son and I are after the same woman!

Life is like a crummy soap opera adapted from a good novel.

I'm going before he gets too close.

What the heck are you doing, you little boor?

Why are you hitting me, Aunt? You have no right!

Even my father has never raised his hand--

My dear lady, he'll never be able to say:

"Even my father has never raised his hand against me."

Why are you bothering the lady, son?

Go on, beat it. Off with you.

If he bothers you again, I can give him a whupping if you'd like.

Ma'am, I'd like to introduce myself.

My dear lady, I....

Uh, I....

No, this is not going to work. I better introduce you to Hakan instead.

Hakan, come.

Come, Hakan, come.

Come, damn it!

What?

It's not working. Hakan, I can't do it. I immediately think of your sister.

I don't feel good, Hakan. Okay, then, keep her all to yourself.

Keep this one too. What a feast for the eyes, Hakan.

You've lost your mind. You're completely nuts.

Excuse me, but what are you talking about?

Ma'am, I'm a veterinarian...

...and I can tell your dogs are-- They look droopy.

I'd like to have a look.

Follow my finger, little one. Follow it. Come on, hop!

Cookie is not too fond of strangers.

No problem, ma'am. A dog who plans to bite doesn't show his teeth.

It's a scientific fact.

Ouch! He bit me. He bit me. I told you, I told you.

Let's see if you can hold on.

Come on, you're not going to let go now, you crocodile?

What a pain!

Bahar.

Shit!

What happened to me?

-You passed out. -How?

The woman came and she hit you on the head with the other dog.

So you fell into the water and you passed out.

We fished you out and dried you off.

With what?

You know how she hit you on the head? Well, I'm not sure what happened either.

When you want to defend yourself, you let the dog loose on your enemy.

But the lady defended herself by hitting you with her dog.

It's a different technique. She's like Mourinho!

Why'd you do the sword-and-shield dance while you were unconscious?

Bro-in-law, I never dream of girls I know.

I can't suffer for the love of a girl who's going to leave in two days.

I'm playing the field tonight, bro-in-law.

Good luck, Hakan. High five!

High-five with me. High-five with me, Dad.

So you performed the brain transplant....

Surgeon, huh?

Brain transplant....

Wow, very impressive.

Yes, a brain transplant.

Should you ever need one.

Mr Hakan.

On the subject of one-night stands...

...I don't have much experience.

Yes, it shows.

But tonight...

...I may be willing to make an exception.

What do you think about that?

Miss....

To tell you the truth, I come here to meet women.

I don't perform brain transplants.

If I did, I'd start with myself.

I apologise, I won't be able to do it.

That's all right.

Small lies are part of this game.

So, all the same...

...I'd like to keep a memento of this evening.

I can't. Please forgive me. Please, will you let me go? Let's go--

-My number. -Let go, let go.

You're hurting me!

I can't do it.

I can't. Excuse me. You should find someone who wants you.

There's a gentleman over there. He's been watching you the whole time.

You should give him a chance.

I apologise again. Good night.

My dear Hakan, goodbye.

-See you later. -"See you later" yourself.

-We're closed for repairs. -Müco.

Mücahit, clients are waiting at Table 4!

Anyway, don't move. I'll be right back.

-Good day. -Good day.

My fingers still smell of chicks.

You can have a sniff if you like.

What do you mean?

Actually, I lied. The smell had disappeared.

I thought of you and petted my chicks so the smell would come back.

Are you a pervert or something?

I was joking.

We were talking about chicks yesterday, so I thought I'd make a joke.

-Yesterday? -Yes.

We were talking?

I've never seen you before in my life.

Mücahit!

Mücahit, hurry, there's a pervert!

I'll be right there, teacher.

-Bahar, what are you doing? -How do you know my name?

Mücahit, go away.

What did I tell you?

Didn't I tell you we were closed?

-What's going on? -Didn't I tell you to wait for me?

What's going on?

Come here, come, come, come.

What's going on, man? Has she lost her mind?

Watch your tongue!

Bahar didn't lose her mind. Her circumstances are special.

What circumstances?

Bahar was in a car accident last year.

She was going to hand in her resignation.

She was on the way with her father. They were driving into the city.

They were upset with each other over her resignation.

I wish you hadn't done all your studies for nothing.

Dad, you know I've always dreamed of becoming a painter.

Haven't you ever had dreams?

I did have a dream.

That you would study and become a teacher.

But it's all gone to waste now.

Dad, the road, watch the road!

That was that. Her father was lucky with just a few broken bones...

...but Bahar stayed in the hospital a few months. Her state was critical.

When she woke up, they said, "Loss of short-term memory."

-She doesn't remember anything? -She does remember...

...everything before the accident, but nothing since then.

Her memory is wiped clean every night.

Müco, tell me the truth. She said she was going to resign.

-She says that every day! -Why are you shouting?

Why are you shouting? I'm just asking you questions!

Listen, Bahar wakes up every day to the day of the accident.

In August, we say, "It's an Indian summer."

In February, we say, "Winter is early."

We talk about global warming. We have to keep making things up.

It was a year and a half ago. Bahar is not aware of anything.

Doesn't she read the newspaper? Doesn't she go on the Internet?

No. You think you're the only smart guy, huh?

Her father prepares the fake newspaper. And they broke her phone.

They tell her the Internet isn't working. She believes it's temporary.

In other words, Bahar is a prisoner of the same one day.

That's the story.

Dad, it's me!

Welcome, I'm in the kitchen.

Are we going into town? For my resignation.

I was there in the morning, I had errands.

I handed them your letter for you.

-You went without me? -Yes.

Dad, are you still angry at me?

No, darling, why would I be angry? I'm not angry at all.

I thought about it all night. I decided that you're right.

You see, I said to myself:

"She has dreams. It's better for her to pursue them."

I thought, "Let her be a painter or something else, whatever she prefers."

Papa, are you feeling all right?

I'm feeling fine, great, my darling. I'm feeling great.

Look what I bought for you, look.

Let's see if you like it.

Here it is.

Here you go, ma'am.

Dad.

-It's for me? -Yes. Of course.

Who knows how much you spent!

Well, yes. I did spend a little, but you deserve it, my dearest child.

I have a favour to ask you, though.

It'd please me so much if you'd give me one of your paintings as a souvenir.

How could I not give you one? I'll paint the best ones for you.

Thank you.

You're welcome, darling. You're welcome.

Go on.

-I'll get to it right away. -Go ahead and start.

And don't forget the match this evening.

The match.... The match.... Ah, of course, the match.

-Turkey! -Yes. Turkey!

-Turkey! -Turkey! Turkey.

I didn't think you'd all come back. I really didn't.

Acun, the host: "First say why and then who."

Brother Acun, I saw Sibel Can in my dream last night.

So I'm saying Sibel Can.

-Is dinner ready? -It's ready, Brother Acun.

-Who's Acun? -It's ready, Dad.

Green beans, as always. I swear, they'll be the death of me.

Die, or snuff it, if you prefer. We cook what Bahar wants.

-After dinner, I'll turn on the match. -Good.

You couldn't extinguish

The fire you lit

Something's burning.

It's my heart that's on fire because of you.

-It's the kettle, Dad. -Get up, get up.

-What's the score? -Nil-nil.

-You've finished the painting? -Yes.

But look at the painting I made for you.

It's not at all like I pictured it.

No, my child. It is really beautiful. Extraordinarily beautiful.

-Isn't it, huh? -"Huh," what?

-The painting, what do you think? -The painting.

-It's beautiful, isn't it? -Very beautiful.

All right.

I'll hang it in the most beautiful corner of the house.

Above the fireplace, for example. In the centre, no?

All right, if you like it.

Okay, my darling, very well.

The match is almost over, and the score is still nil-nil.

If it ends like this, we won't be able to advance in the championship?

We won't. Just look at them. They're too close together.

-Normal offensive tactics won't work. -The 89th minute.

In my opinion, I mean, I'm guessing...

...Selçuk Inan will have to score with a free kick in the 90th.

You're exaggerating, Necati.

-All the spectators are standing. -You wanna bet?

Yes.

For washing the dishes. Selçuk Inan will score with a free kick in the 90th.

I'll make him wash the dishes, Dad.

Okay, dear. I'll even make a cake.

-Go on. -Go on.

Selçuk Inan and Caner Erkin in position. They discussed something with Arda.

The signal will sound. Selçuk behind the ball.

Selçuk runs, kicks the ball and goal!

He did it!

Goal!

-Necati! -Goal!

We scored a goal! We're advancing, Dad! We're advancing!

We won.

-We're advancing in the championships. -We're advancing!

I can't believe my eyes.

-Go on, wash the dishes. -All right, I'll do it.

Necati, this was the best bet I ever lost.

Turkey!

Turkey!

Turkey!

The dishes!

Turkey!

He sends the ball into the net.

-What a day. -Tell me about it.

-We won the match. -Yes.

-I resigned. -Yes.

Dad.

Are you still angry at me?

My lamb, do I look angry? Huh, darling?

Thank you, my dear Daddy.

I'm so excited.

Tomorrow will be a brand-new day.

-Tomorrow will be a brand-new day. -It will be.

-Good night. -Go on.

I almost forgot.

Good night.

Go on.

Pardon, Murat Boz?

What? You want me to pick you?

What? I'm more handsome than you?

Please, don't do that to me. I'll be embarrassed because of you.

You'll give me your last name?

Necati Boz. Our new pop star.

Semi-profile on the album cover.

Mücahit. Bahar is here?

Yes!

Believe me, I'm not here to break her heart.

Boy, you're like an amateur team against a premier league team.

Who do you think you are? Teacher Bahar and you?

I'm a veterinarian.

My God. My name is Hakan Tasyapar.

Oh, my God.

This bill says we have to make a bet.

I'm going to sit at that table. I'll bet you.

-All right. -He says, "All right!"

You're hurting me, you're breaking my finger!

If you complete your bike with my tomato, it'll be better.

This way, you may help me overcome a traumatic memory.

Did you lose your ball when you were little?

How do you mean?

Since you are able to put your leftovers...

...with your own hand on someone else's plate...

...you must have experienced a serious trauma.

-Gears on the steering. -Go on, beat it, go on.

What is it?

A man and a woman watching the sunset together.

You can't tell it's a woman. Boobs, draw the boobs.

You want me to draw boobs on her back?

Hello, miss. You seem to know about painting.

-Could you give me some--? -How is your mother?

My mother....

-Good. -Give her my regards.

Sure.

I'll take that back.

Here, draw the boobs. Here.

What did she say? What happened?

She sent her regards to my mother.

I can't tell if she was insulting me or if she confused me with someone.

Let's make the same bet three more days...

...and I won't have to sell my kidneys to afford a phone.

-Mücahit, you're the king. -I know.

I know.

All right, I accept your apologies.

What apologies?

Is that how it's going to be? You invite me here to apologise.

And then, you made fun of me. Unbelievable.

What apologies, sir?

You stole one of my kidneys.

-Your kidneys? -Yes.

God! I've heard "you stole my heart" a few times before...

...but a kidney, that was a first. Congratulations.

They spiked my drink, stole my kidney and sold it to you.

I heard you wanted to apologise.

What nonsense, it's absurd!

How can I possibly believe you? How?

Swear, and I'll believe you. I will believe you. Swear, go on, swear.

May God give me scabies but no nails!

That's an oath?

May I go deaf when Raphael passes by.

May my two eyes stare out of one hole....

Okay, okay, stop with the oaths. Enough.

All right, no more oaths.

Who told you that? Who gave you my name?

The middleman gave me the time and place.

I asked how I would recognise the person.

He said, "You'll see the prettiest woman you will ever see in your life."

That's how I found myself here.

Come on!

I've always wanted to become a painter. My father has always been against it.

I don't blame him.

He lived in a completely different era.

He had experienced the black market and the food lines.

He wanted me to have a stable profession.

He was a teacher. I became a teacher too.

You never thought about teaching painting?

I did. Of course I thought about it.

But then my father said that art teachers never get assigned.

You know, it's quite common for us not to get assigned.

So I became a primary-school teacher.

But the dream of becoming an artist never left you alone.

Never. It never left me.

Today, I'm going to the city with my father to resign.

But he's still furious at me.

I wish I could go by myself.

I wish.

When you sat down there, I thought, "This is not going to end well."

But no.

It felt really good to talk.

Thank you. I had a very nice time.

I thank you. I had a very nice time too.

She doesn't remember what happened since the accident.

Her memory is wiped clean every night. Bahar is the prisoner of the same day.

See you. Have a good day.

"See you?

Have a good day"?

-That's it? -What do you mean, "That's it"?

You made a whole scene back there.

"They stole my kidney! I'm dying!"

"You are the most beautiful woman I've ever seen."

"See you." You could at least ask for my number.

I thought that....

-I thought about Facebook. -I don't use Facebook.

You don't use Instagram either? You misunderstood me, I swear.

It was a nice conversation. I wanted to give you a chance...

...but you failed. Congratulations!

Bahar. You don't have Instagram?

Bahar, ICQ, MSN?

IRC, listserv?

Bahar!

Message boards?

Do message boards even exist anymore? You idiot.

You can be proud of yourself, you fool! You see, he had to bother her.

Hello.

Master Sehmuz.

Good day. My name is Hakan Tasyapar.

I know very well who you are.

Sir, I came to apologise.

What for?

-There was a misunderstanding. -That wasn't my question.

Why apologise for something she will have forgotten tomorrow?

Listen, young man, I'm only going to say this once.

Stay away from my daughter.

Of course, sir.

But with all due respect, I don't agree with you.

Because she won't remember it doesn't mean she doesn't deserve an apology.

Dad, is that him?

Is that him?

Hang on a sec!

I tried to punch him, and I found myself with my head in his ass.

What is this technique?

I did not come here to fight.

Have you calmed down? Are you calm?

How can I be calm in this position?

I can smell your balls!

Let go of me, damn it, let go!

Let go of me. I'm an artist. Is this how you treat me?

Sir, Bahar relives the same day every day.

If I may speak freely...

...aren't you keeping her in prison in a way?

Is that so?

You think we don't know that?

I apologise.

Young man, my daughter is not available for a serious relationship.

And I would not allow any other kind of relationship.

I ask you not to go back to that restaurant.

All right, sir, I promise not to go back there.

What's it called, that combat technique?

If I search for "head in ass" on the Internet, would I find it?

I promised not to go back to the restaurant. And I didn't.

I did not break my promise.

Excuse me, miss. My car battery is dead.

Could you help me jump-start my car with yours?

Sure. I'll get closer.

If you hadn't stopped, I'd be stranded. When they don't stop, they don't stop.

So many cars drove by and not one stopped, you know--

Are there still people who fall for that one?

My aunt died while she was charging her battery.

I apologise. I didn't know.

Please do forgive me. How could I possibly have known?

Bahar kicks the ball, and goal!

Are there still people who fall for that one?

I believed you because I thought one can't joke about something like that.

Of course I had other thoughts too, but I can't say them out loud.

My name is Hakan.

Bahar.

I understand, but what happens after that, Hakan?

That's none of your business, bro-in-law! What happens will happen.

How is that your business? Why are you refusing to understand?

It's simple. What is there not to understand?

Pretend to beat me. When she arrives, go and hide among the trees.

I'll take care of the rest.

What's it to you?

-Like this? -Hey! Take it easy!

I must have hands of steel. I slapped you gently.

And this, how does this feel?

God! I didn't know you were such a pain!

You're hurting me, damn it! You're hurting me!

-Let go! -The things I put up with!

I'll be right there, ma'am!

-Let go of me, boy! Let go! -That's enough!

Let go of that woman! Why are you beating her?

What woman? This is a man!

I'm a woman.

Bro-in-law, don't act like a fool. Besides, he's the one beating me.

He's hitting me.

Are you perverts? I'll teach you a lesson. Wait there! Don't move!

Bro-in-law, stop acting like an idiot, I said.

Stop your nonsense, man.

-What is this, huh? What is this? -Shit! Run away, bro-in-law.

-You run away. -Run, run.

-You run, Hakan. -Right, stay. Let's see who she shoots.

Let's see if you can get out of this with that face of yours.

Tell me the truth now. Who's beating whom?

Hakan, I'm running away.

I'm still young. I have children. I'm running away, Hakan.

Don't run! Where are you going? Hey!

-Despicable creature. -Where are you going, my boy?

I engraved your face into my brain!

I'll show you!

I have a very good memory, I never forget anything.

A little lower and to the left.

Better like this?

You'll see.

Whoa!

-Did I get him? -Miss.

-I think I got him. -I'm afraid so.

Anyway, you had a narrow escape. He almost got you.

No, the creep just wanted my money.

No, no. If I hadn't showed up, he would have raped you.

I looked him in the eye. He had terrible intentions.

No, no, he was after my money, I assure you.

You poor thing. I think you're in a state of shock.

Come here.

Look at that, he really is in a state of shock.

You're shaking like a leaf!

Come. Come. I'll buy you coffee.

-Don't be afraid, he's gone. -Really, he just wanted to rob me.

That's right, he was a thief. Let's go have coffee.

Babis, babis.

Babis, babis, babis!

-Babis. -Meliha. What is "babis, babis"?

You have to do this.

Look at my lips.

Let me see.

Stop, stop, never mind.

Never mind. All right, stop, stop.

I think she's coming.

Who is it? What are they doing here?

You think you can...

...seduce my daughter with your shepherd's costume?

Return the sheep to their owner and come to our house, all right?

All right, sir.

Do you hear her singing?

She never sang until she met you.

Come, look.

After the accident, in the beginning...

...she painted these.

The doctor said to let her do it, that it may help us.

But since she met you...

...she's been painting like this.

Young man, what is it you want?

How did you do this?

I don't know.

Could we call it "love at first sight"?

Isn't it good that there's something...

...different in her life, even if it's just an hour a day?

Sir, give me permission to make Bahar happy every day.

We've tried, but we haven't managed.

Sir, you're not like me. I have a special talent in this area.

Until now, I've only used it...

...for selfish reasons.

Allow me to put it to good use for the first time in my life.

I beg you.

Okay. Give it a try.

Okay, okay, okay. Okay, okay, okay.

For the distribution of the prizes in our Anatolia Contest...

...we are now in a local restaurant, dear viewers.

We'll reward the first person to make any design with their dish...

...with a brand-new car.

So who'd like to try?

Is there anyone who can make a design with their food, ladies and gentlemen?

I'll give it a try!

Uncle, you.... So? Anyone?

Me. Me.

Damn antibiotics.... He refuses to die, this old guy.

Uncle, you'll make an attempt?

Yes. Look, look. Look there. Two minarets, a mosque.

-Look. -Yes.

-How do you like it? -Superb.

Did I win?

You won. Uncle, you won. Come outside to get your prize.

Come.

You coming or what?!

Good day, miss.

-Good day. -Hakan Tasyapar.

I'm one of the greatest car collectors in Turkey. I have a showroom in Istanbul.

-This car belongs to you? -Yes.

You're very lucky, Miss Bahar.

How do you know my name?

-What did I say? -You said "Bahar."

I said "Bahar."

Spring came really early here. How nice!

Hakan Tasyapar.

Hakan Tasyapar.

Officers!

-Yes? -Do you have a minute?

At your service.

This man claims to have a car showroom...

...and he's saying bizarre things.

He seems dangerous to me.

What showroom? He's a veterinarian.

You're done with the tourists and now you're bothering the teacher?

It's a misunderstanding.

Are you trying to take advantage of the teacher's affliction?

What affliction?

Officer, her family is aware of the situation.

What affliction? My family is aware of what?

I'll explain it later, Bahar.

Officer, we can ask Sister Lemide if you want.

What are you talking about? Everyone is aware of what?

Bahar.

My darling.

Look, documents on the consequences...

...of the accident.

This....

Your journal...

...which you thought new every day.

ACCIDENT CAUSED BY A COW ON THE ROAD

Every night, I tore them out.

I put in blank pages instead.

But I couldn't bring myself to destroy what you'd written either.

I can feel the scar.

It's normal.

You stayed so long in the hospital.

I want to talk to my doctor. I want to hear it all from him.

Bahar, dear, this is your brain.

The temporal lobe was seriously injured in the accident.

We think that the damaged tissue there prevents new short-term memories...

...from being transferred into your long-term memory.

What are my chances of recovery?

I wish I could tell you...

...something more concrete, but I haven't seen any improvement.

Bahar, it could have been much worse, believe me.

Really?

Could it really have been much worse?

Yes, Bahar, dear. Let me introduce you to one of our most interesting cases.

Hüseyin.

Good day.

Good day.

Good day.

Good day.

Good day.

Good day!

Good day.

Good day. I have to?

Good day.

Good day, we're stuck.

-Good day. -Good day.

Hüseyin.

Hüseyin was injured like you, but in a jet-ski accident.

His memory is limited to three seconds.

There are even worse cases, believe me.

-Thank you, son. -Don't mention it, sir.

I'm tired. Good night.

Good night, then.

I'm going home.

-Hakan. -Yes, Bahar.

Miss....

I didn't know if I should call you Miss Bahar.

Bahar.

You can call me Bahar.

I'll see you tomorrow, won't I?

You'll see. Even if you'd rather not.

Please forgive me for today.

If I give you trouble, talk to me about poppies.

I love poppies.

Miss Bahar. Don't be afraid, don't be afraid.

I was asked to deliver these to you.

Thank you.

It must be from my students.

I adore poppies.

For me too?

What's that face, Dad? Please! Are you still angry at me?

No, no, my darling, no.

Whatever you decide, you have my support, my child.

My lamb.

Ah, my darling.

-You mean it? -Yes, of course.

My students sent me flowers and a package. I'll open it.

-We'll talk later, okay? -All right, darling, go ahead.

Thank you.

What the heck was that, huh?

I'm talking to you. What was that?

I'm trying something new.

If it doesn't work, we'll have lost just one day.

Hello, Bahar.

Miss.

I'd like to show you some things you missed in a year and a half.

Lots of stuff has happened in the world and in Turkey.

For example, Aziz Sancar received a Nobel Prize.

I'm a patriotic man. I'm very proud on behalf of my country.

Our national team won the European Championship.

Just kidding. We advanced, but we didn't even win the group.

Ah, Leonardo DiCaprio received the Oscar for Best Actor.

LEONARDO DICAPRIO RECEIVES AN OSCAR

I kid you not, the guy wrestled a bear to win it.

But you, you don't remember any of this.

Unfortunately...

...you lost your memory because of a serious accident.

ACCIDENT CAUSED BY A COW ON THE ROAD

Hello, Bahar. My name is Hakan Tasyapar.

A year and a half after your accident, we met in this restaurant.

We like each other a lot.

Almost every day, I have to make you fall in love with me.

I'll explain how I go about it through a reconstruction.

My brother-in-law Muzaffer will represent you.

Hello, Miss Teacher.

Forgive me. I'm really sorry. I didn't have time.

If you have single colleagues, I'd love to make their acquaintance.

-Unofficially, I'm single. -Bro-in-law, what are you doing?

Teaching is a good profession for a woman.

-Cut. Brother, cut. -You want me to cut the melons?

I told you, Hakan, they're not ripe.

Cut already, brother!

Hang on, I'll get the slice.

Are we rolling?

Hello. I'll give you my tomato slice for the rear wheel of your bike.

Oh, what a good idea! How handsome you are!

Please have a seat.

But your brother-in-law is more handsome than you.

Cut, cut. Cut already! What the heck is this, bro-in-law?

Forgive me, the reconstruction is not working like I thought.

You'll ask, "What did you expect?" and you'll be right.

Bahar, you tell yourself, "If only all of this was a joke."

I agree completely.

But if we look at the bright side, you have a family who loves you.

You have me. You have the people at the restaurant.

Teacher, I was your father's student.

I was one of his last students.

Our son had the good fortune of being your student.

If they bought me a phone, I'd call you every day.

He's joking, teacher. He's just a kid, after all.

-We'll talk about that at home. -After each prayer...

...I bless the Lord and I pray for you.

I bless the Lord for having spared your life.

I pray for you to recover.

Thank God you're still among us.

We're always by your side, Bahar. We want you to know that.

Whatever happens, there are people who'd do anything for you.

You mean the world to us.

How many times have I watched this?

This is the first time, darling.

She cried for an hour.

I think it's good.

Maybe we should do this every day.

She could have her own life. She could see her friends.

She'd have a social life.

Let her do as she pleases.

The cow we hit with the car...

...did she die?

No.

She has the same problem you do.

Fortunately, she found a romantic bull...

...who tells her what happened every day in the stable.

Always take me to such romantic places, okay?

I thought I'd tell you about myself.

I thought you should get to know me a little.

Really? All right.

Mr Hakan, may I ask you to tell me about yourself?

My name is Hakan Tasyapar.

I'm a veterinarian.

I have a beautiful voice.

But only in the sauna.

Hakan Tasyapar, do you love me?

I didn't ask you that to force your hand. Don't take it the wrong way.

I guess I wanted to know.

Don't feel like you have to tell me you love me.

It's no big deal.

Bahar.

Remember the first time we saw each other...

...the first time you smiled at me...

...the first time we held hands....

Tons of first times of indescribable beauty.

I relive those moments every day.

And I'm grateful for them every day.

Do I love you?

I love you, Bahar.

I love you very much.

Every day as if it was for the first time.

Will this be our first kiss?

If we're lucky, yes.

But when you kiss me tomorrow, it will be the first time for me again.

And the day after that, and the day after that.

I want 50 first kisses, at least.

Necati, no!

Am I your pimp?

She wants 50 first kisses!

This is a small, conservative town in Anatolia.

There haven't been 50 first kisses in the whole history of the place.

Tomorrow, and the day after that.

I want 50 first kisses, at least.

Is there something there?

Come along, uncle's little rose.

Go on. Be careful, all right, children?

Bro-in-law, don't just stand there. Get the photo equipment.

So who's coming with me to the hut?

Me.

-Who's coming with me to the hut? -Me, me.

Okay, all right, come.

Eftelya Nisanur, Mevlüt Devrim, keep an eye on Yellowhead.

Come.

Bro-in-law...

...is that a snake?

It bit her! It bit her! It bit her!

Wait, hold on.

-Bro-in-law, let go! Let go of her! -What are you doing, bro-in-law?

He spat in my mouth!

-Hakan! -He spat in my mouth!

-What? What? -He spat in my mouth.

I'll kiss you, hang on.

What are you doing?

I swallowed! I swallowed!

Bahar, are you all right?

I swallowed the venom. I saved the teacher's life.

Your bite marks are clearer than the snake's. You sucked her all over.

We're off to the hospital. Hurry!

-Move, move. -Children. Come here.

MUDANYA STATE HOSPITAL

No worries. We didn't find any toxic substances in her blood.

But the bite on her arm....

It looks like another animal bit her. Her arm is covered in bite marks.

The animal is vaccinated. There's no danger.

The snake wasn't venomous, but we'll keep her overnight for observation.

One person can stay with her.

We'll wait in the cafeteria. Thank you, doctor, thank you.

Let's go, children.

-Let's go. -Get better soon.

Move.

Mevlüt?

Devrim?

Mevlüt Devrim!

What are you doing?

Go on, to the cafeteria, come on.

Go!

To the cafeteria!

Bahar, forgive me. It was all my fault.

I dragged you from one place to another.

Don't apologise.

Hakan, you're the last person to owe me an apology.

Go to sleep if you're tired. You can feel safe.

I'm here, no matter what. There's no danger.

I don't feel like sleeping at all.

But my eyes are closing.

Don't go anywhere.

Bahar.

Yes?

Will you marry me?

Yes, I will.

Listen, you'll have forgotten tomorrow.

-I won't forget. -You'll remember.

-I'll remember. -Promise?

Promise.

You'll remember what?

That I love you.

Bahar.

You've already forgotten.

Bahar.

Bahar.

What are you doing in my bed?

What are you doing, Bahar?

I have no idea, I was asleep on the chair.

I must have moved to your bed, I'm a restless sleeper.

Help!

-Help! -Bahar.

Bahar, we're a couple. Bahar.

-Bahar. -Help!

Bahar, what are you doing?

Bahar, you're a teacher.

Your biggest dream is to become a painter and settle in a small town.

Listen, in the morning-- God!

In the morning, you make designs with your breakfast.

What are you doing?

Have you been spying on me? You pervert!

Bahar, look around you. Is this your bedroom?

It's a hospital.

Bahar.

-Bahar. Bahar, my daughter. My child. -Dad.

My darling, it's all right. Everything's fine, my darling.

Come, calm down. Calm down, my little one.

Is she all right, doctor?

She's a little calmer.

She watched the film you gave us. She'll be better soon.

Thank you, doctor.

Super.

It could've been much worse.

-Mr Sehmuz. -Good day, doctor.

-Are you here about Bahar, doctor? -Did something happen to Bahar?

A snake bit her on the mountain. She's okay, quite all right, in fact.

What were you doing on the mountain?

It's my hobby. I go there every once in a while.

-Mr Hakan took us with him this time. -But it's over now.

Bahar's situation is special. I have to be careful about that.

I can't have any hobbies other than Bahar. I mustn't.

Doctor, believe me or not, as you wish, but...

...I think Bahar remembers me somewhere in her subconscious.

Hakan, you're trying to convince yourself.

Bahar will not get better.

So don't get caught up in dreams.

Can you come to the waterfall?

-How's your head? -Better than yours.

After two hours, you start finding my jokes funny.

What do I owe the pleasure of this rendezvous to?

I needed to see you.

While I was watching the film...

...I felt I was hearing my own life told by someone else.

Then, I read my journal.

It seems I've written in it every day.

You're on all the pages.

Hakan.

I think I love you very much.

Bahar.

I love you very much too.

When you say, "I love you," time stops at that very moment.

The world's fuses burn up, things grow, the country develops...

...we produce our own cars, we find oil in the east...

...when you say, "I love you."

I love you very much.

And that's why...

...I came to break up with you.

What?

Think about your life. It's so great.

You have hobbies. You have a great profession.

You have a huge, generous heart.

What can I possibly give you...

...apart from the necessity to make me remember you every day?

But I told you, I'm perfectly happy with that.

There's even a film on the subject. Give me your phone and I'll show you.

-Give it! Give it to me! -Hakan.

Hakan.

Hakan, I can't do this to you.

I can't ask you to do that.

I can't ask this of you!

But I want you to, so badly!

Once you've left me, will I just be a pleasant memory in your journal?

No. You won't exist.

I'll erase everything of you.

What is that?

Hakan, don't you see that you don't have a future with me?

Don't you want to get married? Don't you want to have children?

I asked you to marry me yesterday. And you accepted.

Children? I'd love that. Four, I want four of them.

You won't even be able to wake up next to me.

I can't allow that, Hakan.

So I'm going to erase everything of you in this journal.

Everything.

But first, I'd like us...

...to read it one last time.

Let's read it together before it disappears forever.

Tonight.

Bahar.

Hakan.

Whether you come or not, it ends tonight.

DEAR DIARY

I think you're talking about me there.

"Reminder:

Hakan is ticklish when kissed on the neck.

He does his best not to show it."

That's very cute.

Keep it, then, Bahar.

-This I'll tear out. It doesn't matter. -Let me see. Wait, I want to see.

I'm going to read that.

"Dear Diary...

...either a weird bull smell is stuck all over Hakan...

...or his farts are really bizarre."

Whoa!

I am a veterinarian, after all.

You want me to put down a note to that effect or something?

I'm going to take that out. Let me.

-Thank you, my dear Necati. -You're most welcome, my dear Hakan.

I can turn down the bed too.

The whole house is acting like pimps anyway!

Necati.

Watch your antlers.

This will be our last first kiss.

Hakan, go.

Hakan, go.

Go.

-God! -Brother, are you okay?

-You're all right, aren't you? -What are you doing?

What did I do, brother? What? Forgive me.

I didn't do anything. I didn't see you! I just touched the hood.

You're exaggerating!

So you're saying, "I've decided to leave," Hakan.

I made up my mind, bro-in-law. I'm afraid that if I see Bahar again...

...I'll start crying and tell her everything.

Don't you take your kids to school?

Why are they always around you?

I don't trust the schools, Hakan.

Do you trust this, then?

God forgive us.

Look at that. What a surprise.

Muzaffer told us. We thought we couldn't let you go without saying goodbye.

I'm glad you did.

Take him with you. He keeps bugging me with The Voice.

We'll see when the whole jury turns around, Dad.

Lemide and Mücahit sent you this.

It's cold cuts and such.

-You can eat them on the way. -Thank them for me.

-So how is Bahar? -Bahar.... Bahar is well.

She moved out.

I begged her not to, but she wouldn't listen to me.

She is at the rehabilitation centre. She's teaching art there.

I have one more thing.

Here. It's a keepsake, a little "bon voyage" present.

Thank you.

Have a good journey in good health....

Go on, get in, Hakan.

Get in so I can pour water after you, for good luck, Hakan, go on.

Goodbye to you Goodbye-ye-ye

What a beautiful voice! Are you a singer?

-Yes. I'm a solo artist. -Go on, move, move.

Move, I said, come on.

I WON'T FORGIVE

Amazing!

While I run away to not see his daughter, the poor man...

...took the trouble to make me a gift so I won't forget her.

Amazing!

Bravo.

What a jerk!

Such cruelty!

Shit. What if he's trying to tell me something?

She never sang...

...until she met you.

He's telling me she remembers me somewhere in her mind, my friend?

What? Are you saying, "He's saying Bahar hasn't really forgotten you"?

What? I should turn around right away?

Excuse me.

-One minute. -One minute? It's too long, one minute.

Good day.

All right, good day.

Good day.

Good day.

-Good day. -Good day. Walk with me.

-Good day. -Good day.

-Good day. -Good day.

-Good day. -Good day.

-Good day. -Good day.

-Good day. -Good day.

-Good day. -Good day.

Good day.

Good day.

-Good day. -Good day.

-Good day. -Good day.

-Good day. -Good day.

-Good day. -Good day.

Bahar.

Miss....

May I ask you a question?

Do you have the slightest idea who I may be?

No.

Shit.

If you wouldn't mind following me...

...there's something I'd like to show you.

I'd love to. Of course.

Can you explain to me why I see you in my dreams every night?

If I told you...

...that I see you in my dreams every night too...

...that in that journal that you reread every day...

...you wrote about me lots of times?

You've erased me from your journal, Miss Bahar.

You told me...

...that nothing would be complete with you.

But since you broke up with me, nothing has been complete in my life.

You are the woman of my dreams.

And it would seem that...

...I am the man of your dreams.

So do you think that explains things?

It explains lots of things.

I passed over the formalities at the speed of light.

And you did it very smoothly. You're very talented.

It seems I passed over them too. Did I pass, teacher?

You did.

What was your name again?

Hakan.

Delighted, Hakan.

I'm delighted too.

I'm really delighted.

I pronounce you husband and wife.

Bravo! Congratulations!

Bro-in-law, why are you stepping on my foot? You're the best man!
