IN GOOD HANDS 2

Yes, the woman you just saw is my doctor.

The one that looked on the verge of tears.

She said I would have cirrhosis unless I quit drinking.

Just like my dad.

She was also my late father's doctor.

She's a great doctor, but she loves being dramatic.

This time, she used a very convincing medical term though.

"You're gonna end up dead, idiot!"

She might be right.

It's been a year since Melisa died.

I don't know which phase of mourning I'm in.

All I know is that I have to pull myself together.

Otherwise, there's a problem in store for me.

And it's not so small anymore.

- Fırat. - Jefe.

Here you go, Mr. Can.

Fırat! What did you do? Were you bored while we were out?

Alright. Here are the batteries.

- How would you like your sandwich? - With ice cream.

- Can. - It's always dry.

Something's missing. I'll tell you once I find out.

Come on! "It's dry."

We'll do anything you want after you eat your sandwich. Fırat!

- Alright. - We got you food. Come here.

CAUTION! CAN AND FIRAT'S SECRET SCIENCE ROOM

CAN'S TIME MACHINE

Can! It's time!

It's time to go wild!

- Really? - Yeah!

This time, it will absolutely work!

Are you sure?

I am! We have the right batteries!

- Passenger 1, are you ready? - Ready, Captain 1.

Date check?

March 21st, 2022, Captain.

Where are we?

It's 2024, Captain.

We need more batteries. I'm sure.

Fırat?

We'll build the time machine, right?

I don't know, Jefe. At least we will keep trying, though.

We have to build it.

I have to go back in time and tell Mom that I love her so much.

I couldn't tell her before she left.

Maybe if I go back and tell her, she won't leave.

She will decide to stay.

Fırat?

You'll stop drinking, right?

You stink when you drink.

Oh, shut up.

Let's send a heart to Melisa.

Can?

I love you so much.

Fırat! Fırat, what's wrong with you today?

Oh, Fırat!

Fırat?

- Good dogs. - Come on, guys, sit.

Yeah, sit on my foot.

Fırat, we need to find you someone urgently.

He's been castrated.

I'm not talking about him. I meant you!

We need someone for you.

Fatoş, leave me be. The last time you tried that...

Can came along. And was it so bad?

That's not what I meant. We're doing fine. I'm doing fine.

Like hell you are.

Okay, we are all going through hard times.

But we have to keep going for Can.

Right now, the boy needs his dad the most.

I'm here. I'm always there for Can.

With your bottles?

Fatoş, you think this is easy for us?

After six years, the child learns his father is alive.

I became a father almost overnight.

He can't call me "dad," are you aware?

Then you call him "son."

The psychologist said, "Don't rush him. Let him do it on his own."

Maybe you're not ready to be a dad,

and using the psychologist as an excuse?

I'm sorry.

But you need someone in your life.

It will be good for both you and Can.

Just trust me. Trust me.

Alright, I got it covered. I got it.

Don't do it, alright? I'm already late.

Where to?

First, school, then the psychologist. I'll pick Fırat up tonight.

Watch out for Freud. Keep him from Mami.

- Fırat's staying with me too? - Exactly.

Come on.

Can, buddy, why don't you dance?

I don't like the dance. It's like homework.

Besides, Mom and I had a different dance.

How was it? Show us. What's the big deal? It's just a dance.

Can the coward!

Can, I really want to see how you and your mom used to dance.

Did you see what he did?

Who's the bearded man who picks you up?

If he's your dad, why do you call him Fırat and not dad?

He doesn't call him son, either. He calls him "Jefe." What the hell?

Come on, guys, let's go!

Can?

Can we just go?

Look, Dad, this one can't dance!

Hop off, Jefe.

Here we go.

The shrink, again?

Not a shrink, a psychologist.

Stay on topic. It's the year-end show.

You'll go, and you'll do the dance.

I won't go and dance.

What's next? Dropping out of school because they're making fun of you?

Great idea. I'll think about it.

- No. You're not dropping out. - I will.

No, you won't.

- I won't go. - You will.

- I won't. - You will.

No, and I'll report you to the counseloor.

Counselor. Learn to pronounce it first.

There are eight passengers. Six more board, how many are there now?

Too many. I think they should walk.

- It's a fine day. - Can, come on, please.

I'll drop out of school.

- No, you won't. - I will.

- You won't. - I will.

- You won't. - I will.

- You won't. - I already did!

- No, you didn't. - But I will.

- But you won't. - I just did.

- You didn't. - Please, just let him do it.

Obviously, he doesn't want to.

I think you should think about it, quietly and calmly.

Thank you.

I will build my time machine,

go to the year 3500, and I won't see you again.

Then I'll go to 4500.

And I'll go to 5000.

- 6000. - 7000.

- 8000. - 9000!

- 10,000! - But I'm in the year 2024.

Listen, please, I'm asking you, seriously.

All I'm asking for is a bit of silence, a little quiet. I'm trying to work here.

We're very sorry.

Can, quiet, please. The lady is trying to work.

She's not. She's just sitting there doing nothing.

- What are you working on? - I'm thinking.

We're thinking too, right?

But I'd like to think in silence.

Do you mind? You don't. Thank you.

You're a little tense.

Shall I buy you a drink? It will help you think.

No, thank you. I quit.

See?

Even that one's quit. You're still drinking.

- "Even that one?" - I'll build my time machine.

I'll collect every worm and find all the wormholes too.

You want to build a time machine?

Then listen to me carefully.

If you want to build a time machine, you need to reach extremely high speeds.

You need to reach light speed.

You know what happens at light speed?

Mass increases. Mass becomes infinite.

What do you need to move infinite mass?

Infinite energy.

Now, is it possible to produce infinite energy?

It's not.

Therefore, you can't reach light speed.

That means you can't build your time machine.

We need light. Lots of lights.

Fourteen.

Look at the women first, then the dogs.

Noticed anything?

- They look alike. - They look alike.

I don't want anyone, Fatoş. Why don't you get it? I don't.

Are these okay?

- Where did you get them? - From the storeroom.

That annoying girl with the glasses said that we need light.

Are these okay?

Who are they? Now you're trying to find a mother for us?

Don't be silly, that's not it.

Find someone for yourself.

Believe me, love, I'm trying.

Why is the Headmaster calling me?

Hello, sir. Sure, I'm listening.

Me? No, I didn't send any emails to anyone.

How could a small kid do that? Even I can't do that.

If you could just forward me that email, I'll check it out.

I'll check my sent box. Okay, thank you.

A resignation letter?

Well, I'll go to my room.

I'll rest my eyes for a while.

See you.

Can?

Can!

- Awesome. - Can.

Can, dear?

"I am announcing my resignation from my student position

at the Private Sevdem School."

"I think I've neglected my personal life because of my busy schedule."

"Your dance sucks. It should be fun, not homework."

"Besides, why do your boring dance when we could go wild?"

"Anyway, I don't like your school, and I don't think I need it."

"From now on, talk to Fırat, not me."

"Yours sinceriously. Can." What the hell is "sinceriously"?

Are you trying to drive me mad?

You sent this to the parents, the teachers, the headmaster, everyone!

Can, what are you doing?

I'm resigning from school.

I wasn't going to school, anyway!

It's out of the question. Forget it.

I won't go. And you can't force me. Even Mom didn't force me.

But I am forcing you, okay?

Who are you, anyway? Who?

See? You are no one to me. You can't force me to do anything.

I will get lots of lights,

get my time machine running, and I'll go to my mom.

- And I'll never see you again! - The time machine isn't a real thing, Can.

You can't go back to the past.

You think I don't miss your mom?

But Melisa isn't here anymore!

Grow up. I'm asking you, just a little, please.

None of this would have happened if my mom was here.

When I go back, I'm gonna tell her everything!

And I'll give her hell.

For leaving me with someone like you, I'll give her hell.

Mom!

Mom, open up!

Can we talk, Mom?

Mom!

Mr. Fırat, your mother's not home.

Tufan, sorry to interrupt your lie, the lights are on.

My mom never leaves the lights on.

That wasn't nice. Take a hike.

Mr. Fırat.

She doesn't like you coming like this. You're leaving me in a tight spot.

There's nothing wrong with me. I'll have a worse...

I'll have a word with her, and I'll go. Promise.

Mom?

Can and I had another fight today.

You know what he did?

He sent a resignation letter to his school.

You can resign from everything,

but not from being a father, Mom.

I get so angry at Melisa sometimes, you know?

Because she didn't find me earlier.

Six long years.

You have a son out there, and you have no idea.

You miss his first smile.

His first crawl.

His first steps.

I feel like all those years are stolen from me.

Maybe if I were with him from the beginning...

I wouldn't be such a shitty father.

Mom?

How do you...

be a good father?

I was trying not to become my father,

but I ended up exactly like him.

You are what you are afraid of becoming.

Good night, Mom!

Don't worry.

I'll go home to sleep.

To all shitty the fathers!

To all shitty the fathers!

There was a girl with a red bike, a freaky one. Is she around?

My son and I need light.

Fırat.

Fırat.

Fırat, it's morning, wake up.

Get up.

Check this out.

Can had the tablet all night.

You might wanna check out his search history.

See you later.

DO DADS DRINK?

HOW CAN KIDS STOP THEIR DADS FROM DRINKING?

We need to reach near light speed at one end of the wormhole.

In that case, a time difference starts to form

between the entry point and the exit point of the hole.

- At this point, the speed of light... - Jefe.

I'm sorry.

One end in the past, one in the future.

Sometimes I feel so desperate, so incompetent.

...different gravity zones...

And I know that you deserve much better than me.

And that disrupts the synchronization of the two ends.

So, both ends of the wormhole create...

I promise, I'll never disappoint you again.

...the conditions for time travel.

What's this?

Because of wormholes...

- It's for you. - We can't exceed light speed.

- For the time machine. - You said the time machine isn't real.

You said that.

It was ignorant of me.

Is being ignorant like being stupid?

So, wormholes bend the fabric of space-time...

Let's place these lights too.

Now you have a portal to the past.

But still, don't get stuck in the past

and neglect the precious happiness

that comes with the moment.

Didn't you promise this kid just today?

I'm not gonna drink, relax.

- Where to then? - I need to thank someone for last night.

The girl who brought you home?

I showed you lots of girls, and for all of them you said,

"Don't be ridiculous, Fatoş."

Who is she? More importantly, why her?

She knows physics.

She rides a bike.

She quit drinking.

And she and Can got along well.

After my grandpa died, my grandma said,

"Our family's intelligence is now balanced."

Whether she meant us or wished for my grandpa to turn over in his grave,

that's still a mystery.

Thank you all for coming. Hope to see you again, goodbye.

I wanted to thank you for last night.

But I told you, I don't drink. I quit.

I quit too. It's water.

Don't give the gentleman any more drinks.

He becomes a burden.

Was I a burden?

I might have been a little out of line, but it was a very sweet night.

Was it a sweet night?

Wasn't it?

Let me paint you a picture.

Last night...

Why do the Jews have big noses?

Because the air is free.

Is that supposed to be a joke?

Come on, it was funny.

My joke was greatly misunderstood.

My mother's side is practically Jewish.

- You're exaggerating. - No, that's only part of it.

Why did you help me then? You bothered to take me home.

You could get rid of me with a cab.

You're quite right. I'll do that next time.

Drink lots of water for healthy kidneys.

It also improves the quality of your crying.

Did I cry last night?

Bro, did I cry or not?

The chain is loose, you'll damage the spokes.

- You're an expert now? - Kind of.

What, you're a bicycle mechanic?

No, but close.

If you'd allow me...

Alright.

I'd do it if it wasn't stuck between the lockring.

Isn't this bike a little old?

Well, a little. It's my brother's.

Leave it here. I'll take you home. I'll get it fixed tomorrow. Promise.

No, it's a fine night. I can walk home. I'm not a fan of cars.

Believe me, I'm not a fan either.

Let's go.

- You hungry? - Yeah.

What should we eat?

Boyoz.

Boyoz?

How should I find that this late?

That's up to you, I came up with the idea.

Here you go.

It's hot. Thank you so much.

You're welcome. Here you go.

And here's your ayran.

Here you go.

Enjoy, ma'am.

I don't actually open the shop at this hour.

I couldn't refuse when he mentioned your pregnancy.

If only you knew the good you've done, Salih.

She's very pregnant.

Not a lot, but not a little. Just enough to get by.

How far along are you?

- Two. - Five.

Well, Salih, thanks. My regards to your wife and kids.

- Thanks. - Good night.

- You should've told me I was pregnant. - I wanted to see you improvise.

Also, five months? Do I look like I'm five months pregnant?

What about two months? Who has cravings in the second month?

What does "being pregnant enough to get by" mean?

That's five months.

Remember you asked me why I helped you?

You're like someone I knew.

The reason why I quit drinking.

- Who's that? - Just someone.

Why does your son want that time machine so much?

Kids, you know.

What's your story?

My story? Forget about it, you'll cry.

Oh, really? Are you dying or what?

Even if you're not, you're definitely trying to kill yourself.

Why do you drink so much?

Partly to escape, partly to forget. And partly genetics.

So, what's your problem?

My problem...

is being a father.

I'm trying to be a good dad.

And the more I try, the shittier I become.

Then stop trying.

I mean, trying to be a good father.

Try not to be a shitty father then.

If you know what you don't want, it's easier to get what you want.

Recently, I've been trying that.

Any luck with that?

Well...

Enough to survive.

So, what is it that you don't want?

Lately, I want nothing. Especially people.

I just want to sit and stare at the walls.

I'm depressed. That's what my psychologist says.

Major depression, even.

I used to have fun like that too.

Sometimes, I miss those days.

Don't be silly.

Hey, what's up?

- Umm, good. - We're late, traffic was crazy.

- Istanbul's chaos. Thanks. - Welcome.

Bro? What's up? You don't recognize me.

- We haven't met. Arman. - Hello.

Didem, my fiancée.

Hi. I'm Uğurhan.

- Hello. - Oğulcan.

Umm, we met in Bodrum...

Bitez?

Bitez. If Bitez could talk.

I'm surprised you forgot. Your glasses are empty.

Two water, please. Neat.

We should say hi to Halil, he'll get offended.

See you, have fun. You play very well, by the way!

Thank you.

Fırat.

I sell bicycles.

I've been neglecting work lately, but that's okay.

I have a son. His name's Can.

My favorite creature on Earth.

We live together.

We have our ups and downs, but we try.

And lastly, I thank you very much for tonight.

It felt great.

Sezen. I'm an architect.

I have also neglected work lately.

I have a brother. Kerem.

We were living together.

He moved to the USA when he got accepted to college.

My favorite creature on Earth.

I'm a little depressed, but I'll get through this.

And lastly, thank you very much for tonight.

It felt great.

To see his mom.

You asked me about it.

"Why does your son want the time machine so much?"

He wants to go back in time

and tell his mom

that he loves her so much.

He thinks...

maybe she wouldn't die, that she would stay with him.

I'm sorry for your loss.

Thank you.

I only met Can last year.

I learned that he was my son.

And Melisa told me that we met...

seven years ago.

For six years, I lived without even knowing that I had a son.

Melisa was ill.

As she left, she left me the hardest and most beautiful gift in the world.

Now it's just the two of us.

I told Can...

that the time machine isn't a real thing.

I'm the shittiest person in the world.

After me.

I was gonna fix that.

I did it while you were sleeping.

Get ready, we're going.

Where?

To see Can. I have to apologize to him.

Oh, don't bother. Apology accepted.

Don't worry, I won't harm your kid.

You won't, but he could do something to you.

If you mean the day at the café, we should forget about it

because it was a bad day.

Besides, I'm very good with kids.

- You're sure about that? - Yes, I am.

It's your funeral.

Hey. I wonder which mosque that is.

Can. Can you read that?

It's the Valide Sultan Mosque, see?

Why are we even here?

To see this place, Can.

- Why is the annoying girl here? - Can, that's not nice.

- I told you, your sister Sezen... - I have no sister.

- Aunt Sezen... - I have no aunt.

Aunt?

I got this.

Can, honey.

Can, honey.

I'm very sorry about what I said about your time machine that day.

- You were being ignorant? - Ignorant?

- No. - Stupid?

Stupid?

Guys, I've been through this before.

Can, should we part ways before this escalates? What do you say?

Can, all of these are built by architects, you know?

- Really? This is your plan? - It always works.

Can, honey? Have I told you that I'm an architect too?

You built all these?

These? No.

So? What are you bragging about then? Unbelievable.

So, Can, honey?

How is school?

What school? It's the weekend.

Besides, "Can, honey"? Don't say that.

What then? If you want me to call you Jefe...

Only Fırat can call me Jefe. You can't.

- Alright, Can, honey. - Don't! Are you dense?

- Can, you can't say that. Don't. - How about Shorty? Midget? Smart-ass?

Who calls a kid that?

- Lousy architect! - Lousy architect?

You're the lousy one! Lousy Jefe.

You're the Jefe of what?

- What's it to you? - How many people work for you?

- How much do you make? - What's it to you?

Look at what other architects did.

But you just sit at a café and think. Lousy architect.

Go nuts! Really, go nuts!

Say whatever you want. Enough, I'm done.

I've been trying to apologize.

Just an apology. Why are you making it so difficult?

I don't want it! Neither your apology nor your kindness.

I don't want you in our lives!

This happened before, Mom is gone and hasn't come back.

And now Fırat will be gone. I know it.

And I don't wanna lose him too.

I warned you. Thanks anyway, it was a good try.

Can!

Fırat.

I'll always be here.

By your side.

You won't lose me.

Are you sure?

- Pass me the ball! - Okay, here.

You again?

Yes, me again. But it won't take long. Promise.

What do you want?

I want you to hear me out.

Then I'll go and you won't see me again. But I'd be glad if you'd listen for a bit.

Can...

no one can take Fırat away from you. I mean, no one.

Neither I nor anyone else.

Remember that first and foremost, okay?

And lately...

I feel the same way you do.

I have a brother

and I don't want anyone to come into our world.

So, I understand you very well.

But this is wrong actually, you know?

Even if I don't come into your life, someone else might

and that's not a bad thing.

Loneliness is much worse, believe me.

Is that okay, Can?

Is she his mother?

Did you listen to a single word I said?

No.

They're laughing at you?

Will you just go? Please.

Who is this, Can?

Is she your mother? Do you call her by her name as well?

No. She's not my mother.

So, that man is not your dad. You wouldn't call him Fırat if he was.

He can call him what he wants.

- I'm talking to Can! - But he's not talking to you.

Let it go, salami. Take your friends and leave.

Is she calling you Jefe too? Jefe, Fırat!

Are you going, or not?

I'm not. You go. Take Can and leave.

He can't even dance. He's got moves like a loser.

Isn't his dance hideous?

Hold this for me.

Sir, can I take that?

- What's going on? - Enough!

I'm gonna tell my dad! You'll see!

Because of your special case, we didn't call Nedim's parents this once.

- But if this happens again... - It won't, Headmaster.

I'll talk to Nedim right away,

and apologize to him on behalf of Ms. Sezen.

Fırat, I'm sorry.

It wasn't Sezen's fault.

Nedim was making fun of me again. About you and Mom.

Sezen wanted to protect me.

Nedim, dear.

I'm sorry about what happened.

I'm sorry about the way it happened.

You're not cold, are you?

I don't want you to catch a cold.

On behalf of that lady, I apologize.

I'm afraid she can't help it.

You know why?

Because she is nuts.

She is a psychopath.

You know what she does?

She goes to every school,

soaks kids who make fun of their friends and...

What do you think he's saying?

Apologizing, I guess. What else could it be?

I guess so.

If you mess with Can about his mom again, she'll come back.

And this time, she'll finish the job.

So, be careful.

Okay?

By the way,

you can tell your friends, my name is Fırat.

I'm Can's dad.

He's coming.

So, what shall we eat?

Can, I think your sandwich isn't dry, huh?

No. This one is great.

She should teach you.

Fırat makes them all dry.

Blah-blah. Is that right?

Why did you dismantle the house?

I wanted to change it.

Kerem doesn't like these.

It'll be ready for when he visits.

Who is Kerem?

My brother.

Can, why don't you go wash your hands and face?

I'm just saying.

Fine. Where's the bathroom?

Down the hall, on the right.

Whoa!

Can, don't mess with anything in there!

This is beautiful.

Can?

Can?

You didn't trespass, did you?

Can.

This place has everything.

There is space. There are math problems.

There's even a telescope.

Fırat, this place has everything. This is beautiful.

We entered without asking...

No, it's okay.

Is Kerem an astronaut?

No, he's studying astrophysics at MIT. He's the genius of the family.

Where is that?

MIT?

In the USA. In the state of Massachusetts.

Fırat! We need to go to Machachooche and find Kerem.

I'm sure he'll help me build my time machine.

He will. He will, right?

He will. Of course, why not?

I'll introduce you later, don't worry.

- Really? - Really.

When will he come? Can we call him before he comes?

Please. Pretty please!

Of course.

He's very handsome.

Yeah, he is.

You had a card like this, but you didn't use it?

I didn't want to have a relationship based on benefits.

Fırat. Are you asleep?

I am, Jefe.

Sezen seems like a nice person, right?

I don't know. What do you think?

I think she's nice.

She can be our friend. Right?

She can if you want.

But she's not gonna be my mother, right?

Never, Jefe.

Will Brother Kerem help me build my time machine when he gets here?

He's already a brother to you, is that it?

You're such a weasel!

"Brother Kerem will help me, right?"

What's wrong with that?

All we do is collect batteries.

The guy's studying in Machachooche!

What? What's Machachooche?

It's not Machachooche. He's studying in Massachusetts.

Let's just call it MIT.

Good idea.

Good idea. Come here.

- Hello! - Fatoş.

- Here I am. Hello. - Hello.

- Sezen. - And I'm Fatoş.

- Pleasure. - I'm like a dad to him.

What's up?

Yes, he's small but powerful enough.

- Superman beats him. - I love her.

- X-Men. - Bingo.

- With his visions? - He beats everyone.

No kid that I don't know of, right?

What a great joke, Fatoş.

I think it's funny.

- I'm close! - I'm gonna win!

Jefe!

Sezen!

I won!

Sezen.

You can call me Jefe now.

You got it, Jefe.

I'll ask Brother Kerem

about the meteor shower.

Then I'll ask him about light speed.

Then I'll ask him what to wear while time traveling.

And I'll ask him if he's ever seen a wormhole.

It's 8:30 a.m. over there. He's probably still sleeping.

Too bad.

Jefe, you're making a big fuss. You'll make Sezen regret it.

No, it's okay, Jefe.

I told him last night about you. He wants to meet you too, happily.

Really?

Fırat, hear that? Brother Kerem wants to meet me.

Don't feel obliged to introduce him to your brother.

You don't have to.

Why? I mean, I won't introduce them if you don't want me to, but...

What's the harm in that?

No, there's no harm. I mean, he must have a lot on his plate.

And...

I don't want Can to get his hopes up about that time machine.

Fırat, Can wants to believe in it right now, though.

You think it's right to take that away from him?

- That was great. - You were great.

That finale was amazing.

Liars! I'm not gonna do this dance. You can't force me. I don't want to.

- This again? - Who dances for homework?

I dance for fun. Not like a robot.

They're different things. Why do you keep protesting?

I don't want to!

Stop yelling.

I won't go to the show, nor to Leyla Yaz's birthday party!

I don't want anyone.

Can, you can't keep avoiding people.

Yes, I can.

Why are you doing this?

I'm not doing anything. I'm telling you what I don't want.

You're being childish.

And you're being an adult?

This is not how adults are.

It's you who's being childish. You're being a baby even!

See, you have a lot of baby bottles there!

Can, everything I do is to keep you from being shunned.

- So the other kids won't make fun... - But they are!

They're making fun of me no matter what I do.

With me calling you Fırat, and you calling me Jefe.

I got used to that.

May I come in?

I don't wanna talk. I'm bored of talking.

I'm not here to talk.

So, why are you here?

I'm here to sit in silence with you.

I'm bored too. May I stay here for a while?

- Sezen? - Yeah, Jefe?

I need to buy a birthday present for Leyla Yaz. Will you help me?

Thank you.

See the batteries?

He's calm and resting now.

I'm not sure about the dance, but he'll go to Leyla Yaz's birthday party.

Thank you.

Did he say baby bottles?

He definitely rehearsed that.

Can, this is a nice place, isn't it?

- Happy birthday. - Thank you.

Wow! Wednesday's dress! My favorite! How did you know I wanted this?

Lucky guess.

Thank you.

Let's get on the trampoline.

We'll be... here.

It all happened so fast.

Isn't that Nedim?

- And his charming dad. - I'm off!

- Hello. - Yes, Mr. Emrah?

Can we talk in private?

If this is about the other day, it's all my fault.

It's better if we talk man to man.

Man to man?

Now I see it more clearly.

It won't take long, I'll be right back.

Who the hell are you? How dare you threaten my son?

You should calm down.

The soaking thing was wrong. I apologized to Nedim, and I apologize...

Bro, listen to me carefully.

No one lays a hand on my kid. No one threatens my kid.

I know all that. It's usually your son who does that to other kids.

- Kids can do anything. - They can't.

If your son bullies a child who has lost his mother

because he has never learned manners from you and probably never will,

then you'll have to answer me, got it, Mr. Emrah?

Is it your place to teach my son manners?

You think you can just teach manners to other children,

when you've only become a father yesterday?

If you are such a good father, where were you until now?

You should have been with him. Maybe he'd call you father, not Fırat.

Dad, come on, let's play! Dad, come on!

Okay.

Don't do it again.

My mom's organizing the party.

Hopscotch competition! Girls have the lead!

Come on, boys! It's your turn! Girls are ahead of you!

Let's go or there will be a scene, this is not the place for it.

Don't be silly, we've just arrived.

Ring around the rosie...

Would you like something, sir?

Find me some vodka from inside. And refill when I'm empty, okay?

Give it here.

What took you so long?

Can.

- Sezen, shall we play? - Sure.

Come on.

Come on, let's run, let's go!

Let's go to the candy house! Come on, let's run!

- What are you doing? - What am I doing?

You can't hide behind alcohol for your problems.

Yes, I can.

Fırat, what are you, a kid?

I don't know, maybe.

Here I am!

Hello, everyone.

Hello.

We are gathered here today for our children.

Leyla Yaz, honey? Happy birthday, dear.

I wish you many happy years.

It's been a bad year for us.

We lost someone.

It was very hard for us both. It still is.

Melisa...

Since Melisa left,

I've been thinking about how to be a good father.

Yeah, this is me with all that thinking.

I couldn't be like you.

So here's...

a toast to Mr. Emrah, who lectured me today on how to be a dad.

Thank you, Mr. Emrah.

What's your problem?

If you're done drinking that shit, get the fuck out.

- Stop it! - Please, don't!

Hey!

Guys, the kids are scared!

You punk!

What kind of man are you?

- Hey, Mr. Emrah! - I'll fuck you up!

- Hey, let go of me! Let go! - I can't! Stop!

- Let me! Let me go! - Mr. Emrah! Calm down!

I'll fuck you up!

Let go of me. Let go!

I said let go! Let me go!

Let me go! Didn't you see what the guy did? Let go!

You want me to grow up?

Now I'm a grown-up!

You want me to grow up! Now I've grown up!

But you? You will never grow up!

Are you happy now?

I want my mom!

The time machine isn't real!

I'll never see my mom again!

The time machine isn't real!

I want my mom!

I want my mom!

I want my mom!

I want my mom!

Mommy!

I want my mom!

Can, it's me.

Can.

Fırat's really sad too.

I mean, he never wanted that to happen.

In fact, he wanted to leave, but I asked to stay.

So, it's a little my fault too.

Look, Fırat's really trying for you.

I can see it.

You see it too, I know it.

Please, make peace with Fırat.

Fırat.

Don't do this.

These are the times Can needs you the most.

Please, don't.

You're not the only one who lost someone.

Can lost his mother.

He's just a kid, but he's trying.

Fırat, I'm talking to you. Are you even listening?

What the heck are you doing? What are you doing?

What, is this your solution?

In this helpless, cowardly mood,

numbing your brain to avoid your responsibilities?

Is this how you cope with grief?

By avoiding it?

How did you cope with it?

With your brother's death.

How did you cope with it?

By denying it, right?

Pretending like it never happened.

You think I should do the same?

You should see the other guy, Dr. Reyhan.

You missed your dad.

One night, he got drunk and got into a fight.

Fight is an understatement.

He was beaten up to a pulp.

He was battered.

His face was beyond recognition.

You were in elementary school.

I'm not gonna ask if you remember.

I know you remember it well.

You trembled with fear when you saw him like that.

You wanted to hug him, but you were too scared.

You locked yourself in your room.

You didn't talk to anyone.

You kept crying and crying.

One day you asked me,

"Was it something I did?"

"Is my dad drinking so much because of me?"

I had to make a decision that day.

I had to leave your dad and raise you by myself.

I was doing well financially.

But I couldn't do it.

I got scared.

Melisa didn't do that.

If it were anyone else, they would come running to you in tears.

But despite all the hardships, she decided to raise Can on her own.

Don't be angry with her.

She was a very brave girl.

Very brave.

Now...

it's your turn to be brave.

Maybe your landscape has changed,

but you have the most beautiful map in the world.

Don't do this anymore.

Don't put Can through this.

He's the reason I'm here, Mom.

I'm here for him.

I promise you, I'll make everything right.

Esteemed Private Sevdem School Administration,

teachers, parents and dear students.

Let me be up-front, this is not a resignation letter from parenthood.

In fact, just the opposite.

Towards a new beginning,

a small step for the world, but a big one for me.

There is no single way to live.

Same goes for being a dad.

For a long time, I've been thinking about how to be good a dad to Can.

Someone I love once told me,

"If you know what you don't want, it's easier to get what you want."

I know exactly what I don't want.

I don't want to be the man I see in the mirror anymore.

I don't want to upset Can, my son, again.

I hit rock bottom, and I'm aware it doesn't get any deeper than this.

My behavior at the birthday party was unacceptable.

PRIVATE SEVDEM SCHOOLS

Starting especially with Leyla Yaz and Nedim,

my heartfelt apologies to all of you.

Yes, I apologize to Nedim's father too.

But mostly to Can.

I apologize to my son.

Can is the light of my life.

My greatest reason for waking up every morning,

and I love him more than anything.

I'd like all of you to know that from now on,

I'll fight with all my courage to be a worthy father to him.

Please talk to Can, not me, about whether I can do this or not.

Yours "sinceriously."

Turkish rock groups, during the 2000s, stood out by creating songs in a style

similar to that of their Western peers.

Where are you going?

There is one more person I need to apologize to.

It was five or six months ago.

You were here.

Dancing with your brother.

And I was at the bar, watching you two.

You two were lovely.

Then you got onto the stage.

Hello.

Hello. We...

This is my brother.

Kerem. He's handsome.

We're here for a celebration.

Before we came here, he said,

"You didn't dress up, no makeup. You look ragged."

But that's not important. We're here for a celebration.

My brother got into the college of his dreams,

and he'll go to the USA to become a man of science!

He's gonna save the world.

By the way, not man of science, but ascientist.

Forgive my sister. She's a little ignorant.

And a little drunk.

- Come on, sis. - And he's cocky and needs a beating.

I just want to say,

I'm proud of you, and I love you so much.

We ran into each other just as you were leaving.

- You okay? - Yeah, I am.

I can give you a ride if you want.

He's just got his license, he'll drive.

Thanks, but I didn't drink, so I'm good. I'm Kerem, by the way.

Fırat. Congratulations.

Thanks, thank you. Nice to meet you.

I heard about it here the next day.

That you had an accident that night.

Months later, we ran into each other here again.

Coincidence.

I needed light.

And I followed the light, that's all.

Sezen!

Sezen!

Leave me alone! Let me go! What do you want from me?

What do you want from me?

Sezen.

I'm begging you, leave me be. I'm begging you.

Sezen.

I said, leave me alone!

It was my fault. It was because of me.

Because of me.

You didn't do anything. Do you hear me?

He's gone because of me! It should have been me!

Here.

You know,

Kerem always wanted me to dress up.

You think he'd be happy if he saw me like this today?

Here.

Tell Can not to feel sorry, okay?

You can't make them stay, even if you tell them you love them.

Dear guests, we'd be very happy if you join us at our special event

to be held in our backyard at 9:00 p.m.

No dress code, but attendance is mandatory.

Our precious guests, welcome to the time tunnel.

And here's the duo who will soon have the chance to travel in time.

It's amazing!

Amazing!

Fırat, what is this?

Everyone, please take your seats, and...

our time travel...

starts now.

Wow! Sezen, look! Look, it's me!

Yeah, you're very sweet.

I agree.

Look at him.

Here's my favorite part.

I remember this!

My mom took that photo.

My mom took that.

Dad.

I love you so much.

I love you so much...

son.

Hey, look!

This is great.

Sorry, I borrowed something from you.

But I needed it for the time travel.

Is that Brother Kerem?

I already know.

Brother Kerem, like my mom...

is gone.

But don't be sad, okay? We'll always be with you.

- Now that we're in the time machine... - And?

Can we just skip tomorrow?

I think that'd be great.

Yes, thank you.

- What's tomorrow? - The dance show.

- Maybe I shouldn't go. - You should.

- I shouldn't. - You definitely should.

- Definitely shouldn't. - You should.

- Definitely not. - You will.

Just go, please.

Please, go. Or this won't end.

You're going.

- I'm not going. - You are, yes, you are.

- No, no. - I think you're going.

- I won't. - You're there.

- No. - You're going.

- I shouldn't go. - You should.

- I shouldn't. - Definitely should.

- Definitely no. - Definitely yes.

- I shouldn't. - You should, you should.

THE YEAR-END DANCE SHOW

He's right. No one's having fun.

Time to go wild!

Who's that man?

That's Fırat. He's my dad.
