It's six o'clock.

Time for the news.

Women continue to be kidnapped
one by one in Istanbul.

It's not yet known

whether the mysterious kidnappings
have anything in common.

And for now, there are no suspects.

Police forces are investigating
the incidents.

Ahmet.

It's over now.

Come on, eat something, please.

We're leaving at midnight.

You said the flow of time has changed.
Without fixing...

Forget fixing. Let's not mess it up more.
We haven't fixed anything anyway.

Okay, I get it. Staying here is a risk.

But I found my mother.

Do you want things
to get more complicated?

Halit is here too.

He's not in his own time either.
Do we leave him here?

I don't care.

I can't stay any longer.

I could be executed.
I felt that rope around my neck.

The stool slipped from under my feet.
I can't stay. I'm leaving.

So you'll leave me here alone?

Take care of things.

Send Halit back to his time and come back.

But I...

I can't do it without you.

You can.

You're not a novice anymore, right?

MIDNIGHT AT THE PERA PALACE

You've become like a brother to me.

Will I ever see you again?

Go on now.

It's almost time.

Esra.

Oh, Ahmet! I knew you couldn't leave me.

- The portals don't work.
- What?

Yes. They're not working.

It's because of Halit.
Why is he here anyway?

"Love," you say.
As if you're the only ones in love.

Okay, calm down. We'll find a way.

Do you know who I am?

Naim Effendi, the retired Mint officer.

How dare you not let me in!

- I can't let you in dressed like this.
- Damn your dress code!

What's going on?

Peride?

Are you here to take me?

Peride, I'm not ready to die.
Tell the Grim Reaper I'm not.

Okay, I'll tell him. What happened?

The hussy got kidnapped.
Like when she was little.

- Leyla was kidnapped?
- I saw it but couldn't do anything.

What's going on?

Naim Effendi!

Call for help. Hurry!

A drunk old fool.

- Is he the only witness?
- Yes.

Unfortunately.

It's...

Maybe it's the Nazi spies
who planted the bomb at the hotel.

All right. Halit.

For your sake,
I'll conduct an investigation.

We'll take his statement when he wakes up.

Where were you all night?

What's going through your mind?

Are you jealous?

No, I was just curious.

No need to deny it.

I like it.

People in love get jealous,
but believe me, it's not what you think.

I was just busy.

Naim Effendi...

He looked at you before his heart attack.

He seemed scared.

Yes, he looked at me,
but God knows what he saw.

I see you've arrived before me.

What does that arrogant inspector say?
Did he say they're isolated cases?

Is this another coincidence?

When did you hear that?

Who hasn't? It's all over the place.

- About Leyla?
- Who is Leyla?

She may be talking about Cahide Sonku.

- What?
- Yes.

- She was also kidnapped a few hours ago.
- Sadly...

When did you hear that?

As she said, it's all over the place.
Even on the radio.

- Who's Leyla? A friend of yours?
- Esra.

- When was she kidnapped?
- Esra! Come on. What's going on?

When did it happen?

Esra is extremely tired, Ms. Meliha.

Please discuss this with the inspector.

He'll give you the information.

Come on.

I bet the same person
has kidnapped all of them.

Right, Mr. Halit?

I don't trust this woman at all.
Don't say another word to her.

Good evening.

I have a reservation for room number 411.

- Your name, sir?
- Dupont.

Mr. Dupont, we were expecting you.

Welcome to Pera Palace.

Your room is ready.
Do you have any luggage?

I like traveling light.

We apologize for the state of the lobby.

We had a tragic incident.

It doesn't matter.

- Welcome, Mr. Halit.
- Thank you.

- Do you need anything?
- Esra.

No, thank you.

Welcome, Mr. Halit.

Are you asleep?

I recognize you by your shadow

no matter the disguise, Mümtaz.

How can you not recognize
your truest friend, Halit?

We're no longer friends.

Use your head, my dear friend.

You are obsessed with her.

You have a huge power at your disposal,
and you're wasting it.

If we continued what we started,
you and I,

we could achieve so much more.

We could change the world.

- Get out!
- Let go of my arm!

Don't ever come back!

Together or alone,

I will succeed eventually.

You can't stop me
from traveling through time, Halit!

Oh fuck.

The Gateway of Truth.

I don't know how I got out.

When I opened my eyes,
I was lying on the floor in the cellar.

I was confused.

I tried to understand what happened,
where I was.

I found myself on the first day of 1941.

Wait, what are you doing? Let him go!

Let's go.

Mümtaz decided he owed his life to me.

He took me under his wing.

I had nowhere to go.

I had to accept his help.

My memory had abandoned me,

but the love in my heart
reminded me why I came here.

I told Mümtaz.

I asked him to help me find you.

Back to the point?

Who is Mümtaz? What is he trying to do?

Mümtaz...

He's a small man with big ambitions.

When he learned the secret of the hotel,
he found it fascinating.

In the beginning, we worked together,

but when I realized his true intentions,
I saw that I had made a mistake.

He stole the keys from me.

He started using time travel
for his own benefit.

He always said he would change the world.

He said he would start here.

Okay, so that's why
everything got so messed up.

Why didn't you stop him?

I tried, but I couldn't.

But I didn't give up.

I bought the hotel
to stop him from traveling through time.

It seems he hasn't given up either.

He tried everything to take the hotel.

When he failed, he turned into a clown.

To solve the problem once and for all,

I need to get back
the keys he stole from me.

Luckily, that's not a problem for now.
The portals aren't working.

I hope it's temporary.

I will find out why.

Are you okay?

I need to find Leyla.

Esra?

We've been running into each other
a lot lately.

Last night, you said

that the same person kidnapped
all these women. What did you mean?

You want me to play
into the hands of my rival?

We're not rivals.

I don't even work for a newspaper,
I swear.

How can I trust you?

One of your friends is a bomber.
The other is...

Listen, if Halit isn't hiding
who he really is from everyone,

I'll quit this job.

You're wrong.

Have you read Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde?

I recommend it.

I'll go now and try to get a little closer
to solving this.

If you don't work for a paper,
you don't have a press card.

It'll be hard for you.

This press card is like a key
that opens every door.

See you later.

NEW YEAR'S BALL AT THE PERA PALACE

Today is May 24, 1941.

Now the news.

Last night around 10:00 p.m.,
there was a severe earthquake in Muğla.

Authorities have declared it
a magnitude 6.

Hundreds of houses collapsed.
Fires broke out.

So far, four deaths have been confirmed.

Riots in Paris are intensifying.
Neighboring nations fear it could spread...

1892...

Mr. Ahmet?

- Mr. Ahmet.
- 1892.

- Excuse me?
- Come in.

It all started with that earthquake.

The portals, the breaking point
in the flow of time...

The earthquake triggered it all.
If we can create a quake as well...

Mr. Ahmet, I came to talk to you
about something else.

There is a way to get the keys back
from Mümtaz, but I need your help.

Come on.

First, you need a photo.

I will make Mümtaz's butler quit.

Then you will take his place.

How's your English?

What?

Mümtaz.

He only hires British servants.

I'll pretend to be a British butler?

The look's fine,
but what about the accent?

Can't you act a little?

Look at me, sir.

You sounded very anxious
on the telephone. Is everything all right?

Thank you. Yes, everything is fine.

I'm listening, then.

What's so important, and how can I help?

You were taking photos
for the Yeni Sabah newspaper, right?

Yes.

We didn't have a chance to talk.
I'm a journalist too.

Oh really? How nice. Which newspaper?

Well, actually,
that's why I wanted to talk.

I need a job.

Can you help me?

Aren't you Mr. Halit's fiancée?

Don't get me wrong.

I support the presence of women
in the workforce.

I'm just surprised because...

Well, with a fiancé
as powerful and wealthy as Mr. Halit...

I want to investigate the kidnapped women.

It's personal.

All right.

I assure you I will do my best.

Ahmet!

I found a job.

What job?

Journalism.

Let's get you married too.
Have you decided to stay here?

Start a family, have kids.

What the hell are you talking about?
To find Leyla...

It's to find my mother.

This press card works everywhere.

- It opens all doors.
- Come.

That MAH agent.

He's like a shadow.

They still think I'm the bomber.

I figured out how to fix the portals,

but with spies on my tail,
I can't blow up the Garden Bar.

The Garden Bar...

Ahmet, are you okay?

I'm fine.

It all started with an explosion.
I'll fix it with another.

Well, one nail drives out another.

Mr. Ahmet.

From now on, your name is Alfred Jones.

What?

What are you up to?

To get the keys back,

Mr. Ahmet and I will play a game
with Mümtaz.

Then I'll go practice my role.

- Esra?
- Huh?

Will you help me?

Come on.

What's going on? Huh?
When did you two hook up?

- Ahmet, what are you talking about?
- Esra.

I mean...

Okay, but you don't have to worry anymore.

Clearly, Halit was already with Sonya
before he got here...

Sonya?

You know. It happened.

You're not bruising, so it's okay.

No, it's not fine. It's impossible.

You and my dad...

We've talked about this so many times.
The Gateway...

Damn my luck.

I fell in love for the first time,

and this happened.

It's so complicated.

Esra.

Don't prolong the torture.

One wants to believe
it's possible, I know.

But we can't change fate.

Then...

why is all this happening, Ahmet?

Maybe what we call fate...
is not a single scenario.

Maybe fate is all the possibilities.

You'll need these to get the job.

Sorbonne? But I don't know French.

This is all I could do in such a hurry.

BACHELOR'S DEGREE

Esra Vatansever?

I don't know your last name,
so I used mine.

Okay, thank you.

Let's have dinner tonight.

I've missed you.

Bravo. So there are
educated ladies like you in our country.

Of course.

You witnessed the tragic incident
at the Pera Palace.

Yes.

Then your first task is
to write an article about the bombing.

Use this opportunity.

Mr. Yunus, actually,

I'd like to investigate
the case of the missing women.

Can I do that?

You must earn the right
to request a story first.

Now please get to work.

Where is he?

Where is he?

- Nurse, the patient finally woke up.
- I'm coming.

- Where is he?
- Who are you talking about, sir?

The bastard
who kidnapped my granddaughter.

I saw him. I saw Halit. The car was there.

No one else has that car.

I'm sure. No one else has that car.

Mr. Halit is here to pick you up.

Okay.

- Can you get this to the press?
- Sure.

The nights I spend without you

Your longing pierces my heart

Oh, I suffer so much

Why are we apart?

To make me love you
You burned me inside out

You gave me hope

You said, "I'm yours now"

You caressed my hair and loved me

You fought so hard with my heart

Why did you run away from me?

You've caused me all this trouble

It's enough, what you've done to me

Love me and put me out of my misery

I'm dying of your longing, your love

I love you so much

I'm dying of your longing, your love

I love you so much

Hi.

Do we know each other?

Do I know you?

No. I mean, we haven't met yet.

Let's meet, then.

I'm Lili.

- And I'm Ahmet.
- Ahmet.

- Nice to meet you, Mr. Ahmet.
- You too.

Very strange.

I feel like...

I feel like I know you.

Thanks a lot.

Come again, Mr. Ahmet.

I'd like to see you again.

I'd like that too.

Do you remember this song?

Stay here with me.

I can't bear another night without you.

I say...

let's get married next week.

What's the rush?

Why wait?

What could stop us?

I need to find Leyla.

I won't stand in your way.

On the contrary.
I'll always be by your side.

Of course.

But

you don't belong in this time.

Neither do I.

Ahmet is planting these ideas.

You're not taking them seriously, are you?

We can stay in this time.

I believe in love and destiny.

Our reunion here was not in vain,

nor is the problem with the portals.

It's clear what destiny wants.

What's that look?

It all began after you came.

The kidnappings...

Do you suspect me?

Of course not.

Just, what if Ahmet is right?
That the Gate...

Halit.

I'll take you downstairs
so Ahmet won't worry.

YENİ SABAH
DAILY POLITICAL NEWSPAPER

A STRANGE BOMBING INCIDENT
AT THE PERA PALACE

This is not my article.

This is not my article.

Sir?

I clearly wrote the name of the person
who placed the bomb.

Here it says an unknown person
switched the suitcases.

Mr. Yunus preferred this.

Use the photos as we discussed.

May I ask why you felt the need
to change my article?

You may not, madam.

But... the police know the truth.

I didn't write anything false.

It seems you're quite headstrong.

I can't work with a woman
who doesn't handle things delicately

and oversteps her boundaries.

Bravo.

Getting fired on your first day

is a great achievement. Congratulations.

What? You two are not talking?

It's your fault.

You put these silly ideas in my head.

Ms. Esra, you have a telegram.

From Sabiha Sertel?

She's offering me a job
at the Tan newspaper.

We need daring reporters like you
at this newspaper.

Oh, Ms. Sabiha, you are my idol.

I mean,

this offer you made, giving me the job,
it means so much to me.

I grew up reading about
your journalistic achievements.

Sorry?

Ms. Sabiha.

What are you doing here?

- Do you know each other?
- Yes.

Esra is a reporter for the Tan now.

- You will work together from now on.
- Together?

What is it?

This just came from an unknown sender.

"With this letter,
which I request to be published,

I proudly declare
that I kidnapped those women."

"It is time to explain my intention."

"Mustafa Kemal Atatürk's biggest mistake

was elevating women."

"Indisputably, a woman's place is at home,

and her duty is
to bear and raise children."

"Unless all the rights
given to women are revoked,

one by one, I'll start..."

One by one?

"...I'll start killing them."

"This is a warning."

"If ignored,

those in charge will have forced me
to commit my first murder."

"My fight will intensify
until we return to our old ways."

Come in.

Mr. Halit, Inspector Kadri
is here to see you.

Let him in.

Please.

Halit, you're in trouble.

That drunk old fool talked.

He saw your car at the mansion

the night his granddaughter was kidnapped.

You'll need to come with me
to the station.
