THE STORIES AND CHARACTERS DEPICTED HERE WERE INSPIRED BY OUR HISTORY

NO ANIMALS WERE HARMED DURING THE FILMING OF THIS PRODUCTION

Meet your end, you bastard.

So, you came to our village dressed as a beggar.

We will find out what you're up to.

You won't get a word out of me.

Start walking, then.

We will take him to Umuroğlu Village.

As you say, Turgut Bey. Go on! Walk!

I'm listening, Ertuğrul Bey.

What do we know about the people involved?

Betrayal.

There's a traitor among you who sends information to Hülagü Khan.

Inside every state...

there are maggots eating it from the inside.

You know this well.

But...

sooner or later...

they're always exposed.

But this instance concerns you personally.

Tell me, why?

The traitor is too close to you.

Do you understand...

what you are saying?

Accusing somebody of treason within my inner circle

is treason in and of itself, and there's no forgiving that!

The information Hülagü Khan has...

is not ordinary, just the opposite, quite valuable.

It includes the secret correspondence between us.

That's how I know

that this traitor is no common man.

Who is it, then?

Give me a name.

We will find out together.

Now, I must know who your closest confidant is.

I talk about the state's affairs with many men close to me.

The closest.

The person closest to you.

The one who knows what nobody one else knows.

Kıyat.

Don't tell me you think it's him.

He's the most valuable vizier of this state.

You're a wise and a strong khan.

You know well that in affairs of state,

even a son might stab his father in the back.

History is full of such examples.

That is the truth.

But what is your truth, Ertuğrul Bey?

Kıyat has been at my side for years.

You come to me today from Anatolia and accuse my best man of treason.

I need hard evidence, not suspicious words.

Do you have proof?

I will show you proof...

but for that, I will need your help.

What kind of help?

I will bait the traitor into exposing himself.

All I want...

is your permission to do this.

I understand how hard this must be for you.

But we have no other choice...

for justice...

or for the state.

We will test him.

Then everything will become clear.

I will test him.

But I have a condition.

If Kıyat is not a traitor...

then I will have your head.

Deal.

Now tell me...

how will we test him?

The alps went to your friends.

Let's hope they stay true to their word.

Don't worry, Taşkun Bey.

I don't deal with traitors.

They're loyal to our friendship.

And they will pay back our help with interest.

Let's hope so.

Let's hope so.

If they indeed pay us, we can distribute the gold on our wedding.

-What's happening? -What's happening?

Listen, the drums.

Time to get the gold that you've been waiting for.

Temüge.

What is this, Sırma Hatun?

Traitor.

A traitor.

What is this?

Who is that man?

Why are my alps tied up?

You enjoy acting as bey.

But you don't even know your own people.

These are traitors.

Traitors!

How can they do such a thing?

Oh, Allah.

What do you mean?

What treason?

Don't try to talk your way out of this.

Everything will become clear now.

Who do you think you are?

You're talking to the Umuroğlu bey. Don't forget that.

We will see who is who in the tent, Sırma!

Umuroğlu beys to the tent!

Take these three away.

It's time for the truth to come to light.

Let's find out who holds your leash.

Walk.

Now!

I hope you didn't waste our khan's time with nonsense, Ertuğrul Bey.

If Berke Khan tells you what I said...

you will know whether it's nonsense or not.

Let's go, brothers.

My khan.

What did Ertuğrul Bey say to you?

He kept repeating one thing.

He said...

that we have a traitor among us.

Did he tell you who it is?

No, he did not.

But he will prove it once he's back in Anatolia.

He's going to show me evidence.

Apparently, he's about to catch a Mongol who knows who the traitor is.

So the traitor will be exposed once he's back in Anatolia.

Then I will have a ship prepared at the port right away...

so they can return at once and give us a name.

They won't use the port.

They couldn't keep our men safe in their own lands,

but we will demand every precaution.

That's why...

they will use a secret cove in the east.

Prepare accordingly.

As you wish, my khan.

These mimicking crows...

are like the traitors among us.

They fool people.

They mislead people.

The hunter becomes the hunted.

That's why...

we must take their heads.

You gathered us all here. Tell us what's happening.

This scum will tell you what's happening.

Speak now. What is your plan?

Did we tell you to smile?

Talk.

I don't know anything.

I don't know anyone.

Then why did you contact Sırma Hatun?

Why did you come disguised as a beggar?

We only wanted to avenge Beybolat Bey.

You're not even an Umuroğlu alp.

What were you after?

Why did you ask Sırma Hatun for alps?

What did you offer her...

in return for her help? Talk!

Speak, Sırma.

What did he give you for the alps?

What do you seek?

You're doing this because your man wasn't elected bey.

Come to your senses. I don't know this man.

So, you don't.

Then why did you meet him at Beybolat Bey's grave?

Why did you send him the alps?

He didn't give me anything.

You wanted the alps...

to take back Berke Khan's gold, right?

What did you offer? Talk!

Speak or I will snap your neck.

We gave the gold to Sırma Hatun.

Were you in contact with Taşkun Bey?

Why would I know him?

Kill him.

Hold on, Taşkun Bey. Hold on.

You wish to kill me...

instead of saving me.

If that's the case...

let everyone know.

We gave the gold to Sırma Hatun.

We've given her gold before.

That man became bey thanks to our gold.

Lies! Slander!

This is a plot to take away my title.

What happened, Kıyat?

Did Ertuğrul talk to Berke Khan?

He did.

There was no deal.

At last, we got what we wanted.

No, a terrible thing happened, Arıkbuka.

-What? -Ertuğrul told Berke Khan

that there was a traitor close to him.

-Did he say your name? -No.

But he will reveal it as soon as he's back in Anatolia.

He will have all the evidence too.

He's about to catch someone who knows me.

If he didn't give your name, don't worry.

You must kill him no matter what.

I will send you soldiers too.

I'm here to kill Ertuğrul anyway.

I won't let him return to Anatolia.

Nobody can save him here.

I will set an ambush near the port.

Ertuğrul won't use the port.

He will use the cove in the east in secret to be safe.

You will kill him on the road to the cove, Arıkbuka.

Tell me which road, Kıyat.

Everything is clear now.

You sold yourself to them.

Let's see what you bought with that gold.

I will ask once,

and you will answer me.

Act like beys.

Did Sırma Hatun and Taşkun Bey give you gold or not?

We got the gold as a gift.

But we didn't know it was Mongol gold.

We regret it, forgive us.

Scum.

Your rule is over, Taşkun Bey.

Your title is gone.

You will pay for this.

End this nonsense now.

I am the bey.

Nobody can take my title.

You tried to bite off more than you could chew.

Now drown in your own blood.

Ertuğrul!

No matter where you go, you won't escape my wrath.

Because we have turned this world into hell!

It's you who has fallen into hell.

You will burn to ashes, Arıkbuka.

-Haldaga! -For Allah!

I will decide now.

From now on, the new bey of the Umuroğlus is Battal Bey.

Come, Battal Bey.

He who sells his vote for gold today...

sells his honor, family and tribe tomorrow.

You are beys no more.

The Umuroğlus will live on with honor.

As for you, Sırma.

You won't leave your tent.

We will find out who else you plotted with.

I will find everything out and punish you accordingly.

Even your corpse won't make it to Anatolia.

You will never tell Berke Khan the name of the spy.

Ertuğrul Bey doesn't need to say it.

Your ambush has already given his name away.

How could this happen?

You will say that you will send us from a secret cove.

Only Kıyat will know about it.

If we are attacked, then the traitor is Kıyat.

When we make the prisoners talk, everything will become clear.

Stupid Kıyat!

That dog in Tabriz awaits news from you, doesn't he?

This world is too small for two rulers, Berke Khan.

Hülagü Khan will have your heads.

When it's foggy...

the jackals think they rule the world.

But the fog is gone.

We see that you're just a sheep.

Your owner will receive your heads.

I will flay you and that traitor Kıyat and send your skins to your master.

I knew something was up when you left in a hurry with the soldiers

without telling me, Berke Khan.

I was right.

Try and catch me if you can.

Well done, Arıkbuka.

You did your duty. Now it's my turn.

After him, quick!

It will be as if I killed you, Berke Khan.

I know precisely how to do it.

You were right, Ertuğrul Bey.

Your trap ruined the traitors' plan.

You did your part. Now it's my turn.

I will tear that traitor apart with my own hands.

My part will be over once this treason is completely done with.

I will go after Arıkbuka.

We must break his wings before he can fly away to Hülagü Khan.

I will give you two great scouts.

You will need them to track him.

Don't waste much time on the tracks.

I can send lots of men in every direction.

Come to my hunting tent soon.

There's nothing preventing our alliance now.

I will give you some documents to help you in the great war.

As you say.

Let's go back to the hunting tent.

There's a big prey waiting for us to take his head.

We will go after Arıkbuka. Come on, alps!

Untie my hands.

I order you as Sırma Hatun. Untie me.

Good.

You will obey the orders of your lady.

Sırma Hatun, İlbilge Hatun ordered us to untie you.

She has another order.

You're not to leave this tent.

These two alps will wait in front of the entrance.

If you need...

Get out!

I told you to leave!

Be gone!

Out!

It's not over yet.

I haven't said my last words!

I will make you pay for this!

Allah bless you, Turgut Bey.

We exposed the treason and saved our tribe,

all thanks to you.

You're welcome.

I needed to cut off the snake's head.

The dark clouds above our village are gone.

The appropriate thing...

is for you to lead our tribe until you become a Kayi woman.

Both the title and the tent are yours until then.

The title of bey is yours, Battal Bey.

You can take your title anytime you want as it is your right.

Thank you. Excuse me.

İlbilge Hatun.

There's the issue of Sırma Hatun, your sister.

You must decide her punishment and her fate.

Sırma was blinded...

both by her ambition and her endless rage.

She's like a child with never-ending demands.

Even though I'm very angry at her, I still have mercy for her.

She can act without thinking.

But I can't decide without thinking.

Things should calm down.

Afterwards I will make my decision about her.

All right.

Be careful in any case.

Excuse me.

Turgut Bey.

How is Ertuğrul Bey? Is there any news?

Is he safe in those faraway lands?

My bey has survived many troubles.

He will take care of this too.

He will be home soon.

Rest assured.

Allah willing.
