Come, sister. Come sit down with us. You look pale.
[woman] Rest yourself.
I'm sorry for your loss.
Thank you.
[woman sighs]
[atmospheric music plays]
We only just buried a mother and her baby.
We still have hopes for this one.
What would be left for us if we had no hope?
[sighs]
[music intensifies]
You're the one! The one with the star sign!
[sighing]
[music intensifies]
[Zühre] You knew your duty, even though you were nothing more than a small child.
[man at the cave] Why do you stay away then?
What is the memory that most tortures you?
-[tense music plays] -[breathing intensifies, echoes]
[atmospheric music plays]
[music intensifies]
[breathes deeply]
[atmospheric music plays]
Oh, thank goodness!
We were so scared. We didn't know what had happened.
[woman 2] I told you the star woman really existed.
You've answered our prayers. You will be the one to save us.
[woman 3] Thank God you've come back.
I've seen her in my dreams. Her eyes were just like yours.
Child, what is your name?
Atiye.
Where am I?
We shelter here.
The pregnancies have forced us to go underground.
Today we buried our friend Hatice.
But then we found you, our miracle!
Can you save us?
-[atmospheric music plays] -[sighs]
So it ends.
Goodbye, Mother.
[birds caw]
[seagulls cry]
[Mustafa] I tell you, Mr. Yilmaz.
I don't think I've ever had to deal with a more confusing case
in my entire career.
The thing of it is, I can't help thinking
that you're a bigger part of the confusion than you're willing to let on.
I think you're thinking too much.
Your only job is to find the girl, after all.
Now that you know your son is out of the country,
why is it so important to you if this girl gets arrested or not?
I just don't get it.
Well, we wouldn't want her getting away, Inspector.
She is a criminal, right?
Mm-hmm.
Well, try not to worry.
It's been my experience that the criminal rarely gets away with it.
-[tense music plays] -[Mustafa] I'll see myself out.
Who was the woman who died, Serdar?
Some old woman, that's all. Listen, we should--
You're lying, I can tell.
-I know you. -Why would I lie to you?
By the way, Ozan, he's in Paris.
He just called to say he's in Paris and loving it. [chuckles]
He's fine.
So try to calm down, alright?
He'd call me. Why would he call you? Hmm?
Something's very wrong. I know it. I can tell he's in trouble.
You're lying to me.
-Oh, you can't believe that, Melek, love. -Are you lying to me, Serdar?
If you want, I'll go there and bring him back.
I'll go to Paris and drag him back if I have to, alright?
We'll go together.
Mon amour.
Hmm?
[Serdar hums]
[ominous music plays]
[music intensifies, echoes]
[Serdar] If one thing defines a person more than love, it's agony.
[grunts]
[sobbing] Ozan…
[tense music plays]
I'll bring you back.
My son!
Just like I brought your mother back this time.
[music intensifies]
[creaking]
[wind blows]
Go away.
Go away!
You can send me away…
but sending your conscience away is not quite so simple, is it?
It's your heart's reflection.
It will follow you every step of your life like your shadow.
She isn't here.
She's dead. She's dead. She's dead!
She's dead! She's dead! She's dead!
She's dead! She's dead! She's dead! She's dead!
-[gasps] She's dead. She's dead. -[wind drops]
These just arrived for you, ma'am.
Hmm?
Thank you.
[atmospheric music plays]
[Serap] The time has come, Melek.
THE TIME HAS COME, MELEK
[knocking]
Yes?
How's it going?
Oh, alright, I guess.
[ominous music plays]
What's going on, Erhan?
You and the girl went to Cappadocia.
Why? And why didn't you tell me?
Hmm?
Wasn't important.
Anyway, like you said, she's a crazy person.
Mm-hmm.
[Erhan] You seem to know a lot about her.
And her… mother, too.
All along, I've had nothing but trouble from those two.
You know, over the mining operation.
I think you're hiding something from me.
And I can't imagine why.
If anyone's hiding something, it's you.
What do you mean by that?
-Did you know my father is alive? -Huh?
Well, did you or didn't you?
Of course I didn't. How could I have known?
Why would he tell me that you aren't to be trusted?
I have no idea why he said that.
-He said Atiye's the only I should trust. -Bullshit!
Believe a man who abandoned you or the one who's treated you like his son?
Erhan?
There's nothing you're keeping from me?
Nothing at all!
Don't let yourself get confused by this girl.
Remember where you came from…
and who you are.
Believe me, that's all I wanna do.
I wanna… remember.
[door opens, closes]
[sighs]
-[breathes heavily] -[Atiye shushes]
[echoing]
[whimpers]
You can heal with those hands of yours.
The same as Sister Seher.
-What's her name? -Seher.
The yellow girl,
with the mark on her face.
Do you know of this girl?
Where can I find her?
[atmospheric music plays]
[rooster crows]
[young Seher] Tukiye!
Hmm…
[Seher] Welcome, Atiye.
Auntie.
[music intensifies]
[laughs]
You're alive.
All of us live on in one world or another.
But the life that matters to us…
is this one inside you.
[soft music plays]
How do I protect it?
Back to the beginning.
Go back to where this started.
To the place and time where you first met him.
-Erhan? -Mm-hmm.
Göbekli Tepe.
That's why Grandmother sent me here.
No, my dear. Long before that time.
If you can enter the locked rooms of your memory, you will understand.
Somewhere, you have the key to open those doors.
You know you have it, right?
We just need to find where you put it.
I see. So, how do we?
[Seher] Water holds memories too, Atiye. Touch it.
-[echoing] -[baby crying]
It is your power. Don't be afraid of it.
Look in the water for the key
to unlock what you want to remember.
[atmospheric music plays]
[rumbling]
[rumbling, echoing]
[atmospheric music plays]
I take it the water… helped you to find it.
I remember it now.
[gasps]
And if I can get Erhan there, maybe he'll remember.
[atmospheric music plays]
[footsteps approaching]
You still haven't told me how you found us.
It wasn't that difficult, darling.
Thanks to that police inspector.
But you were there first.
You're not hiding anything from me, are you?
I'm not really the one here who should have to explain herself, am I?
Just answer my question.
The answer is no.
You're the one who snuck off with that bitch.
Careful what you say about her, Hannah.
Excuse me! And that offends you?
Last time I checked, I thought I was your wife.
And yet you and a woman you hardly know are running off on a wild goose chase.
-We were looking for something important. -You were?
-Like this thing? -Yes, Hannah!
So that's what this thing is?
-Important? Why? -Careful! Put it down?
Is it so precious?
My God! Is it more precious than me? More valuable to you than your wife?
-After all the risks I've taken for you? -What risks? Stop the bullshit! Huh?
What risks, Hannah?
-You have no idea. -No, I don't!
I'm through. I am done.
I've had it with being taken for granted while you're off doing whatever you want.
I'm sick of waiting in the corner! I'm sick of all of this shit!
No! What are you…?
Are you out of your mind?
-[atmospheric music plays] -[Erhan sighs]
I have to get back home. I came to say goodbye.
But I promise, I'll be coming back soon.
But, Atiye, what if something happens when you're gone to Zeynep?
I have to go.
We could come with you, huh?
Well, why not? It's better than us waiting for her to come back.
If we go, she can look after Zeynep.
No, I have to go alone. No one else can come.
[woman] But why?
I'm in trouble, okay? The police want me.
Well, alright then. We can take you.
You're better off with us than all alone.
I'm a very good driver. We've got a truck at the dairy.
[woman] Come on, please.
[sighs] Is there a phone somewhere?
[dialing numbers]
[ringing]
[ringing, vibrating]
-Hello? -Elif?
What is this number?
-Are you alone? -Yeah, but… are you alright?
The police are after you.
Yeah, I know. But don't worry, it's all just some kind of stupid screwup.
-Don't tell them I called you. -No, no, I won't but…
Where are you?
I'm trying to get back to Istanbul.
I need a favor, Elif.
[Atiye] It's really important.
Go on.
I… I have to get hold of Erhan.
Why not call him?
He doesn't trust me.
Uh… What do you want from me?
I mean, what can I do?
You can get him to meet me.
[Atiye] Look, I know it's a lot to ask, but he'll listen to you.
It's important he meet me.
Where and when?
At the old bazaar, tonight.
Okay.
You take care of yourself, and thanks.
Atik… be careful.
[sighs]
[ominous music plays]
[sighs]
Hello, Chief Inspector?
[Mustafa] Speaking?
I know where Atiye's going to be this evening.
Shall we go?
[sighs]
[phone chimes]
[phone rings]
Atiye?
Hello?
[Nazım] I'm texting you an address.
Go there now if you ever want to see Ozan again.
And tell no one.
Oh… Ozan…
Who is this? Who I am talking to? Hello?
[tense music plays]
[Hannah] Erhan, I'm sorry.
I shouldn't have said that. Please, darling. Open the door and let me in.
Right now, I'd rather be alone.
Please, Erhan.
Can't we just talk it over?
Not now, Hannah.
Let's give it time.
[soft music plays]
[sighs]
[tense music plays]
[Elif] Ozan?
Ozan? Ozan, it's me! Ozan!
Ozan?
[breathing heavily]
Ozan?
Ozan!
Where is he?
Where is he? Ozan?
Ozan!
-[music intensifies] -Ozan!
[soft music plays]
Elif.
Papa?
I'm so sorry…
for… not being there for you.
You have got every right to hate me and to tell me to…
go to hell.
[sobs quietly]
[music intensifies]
[Elif sobs]
Elif!
My darling. My darling girl.
[sobbing] Oh, Papa!
[suspenseful music plays]
EAST SIDE
[sighs]
Maybe you can help me, Dad.
But… where is Ozan?
I wish I knew.
I said that because I had to get you here without anyone else knowing.
To give you a warning.
[seagulls cry]
Warning?
You need to get away from Serdar and his family now.
Right now. Today.
They're going to hurt you, my darling.
Why would they?
Uh, I'll explain, but…
first… go to this address. You'll be safe there.
Konya, really?
Yeah, and not a word to anyone about it.
Once you're safe, I'll come there and explain everything.
I-I-I couldn't. What about my brother? And Ozan?
Elif.
Look at me.
Erhan knows that I'm alive.
Huh?
-He can't forgive me. -[Elif] Oh…
[soft music plays]
You don't have to forgive me either. But I'm begging you…
Go to that address.
Now. Today. Disappear.
And you'll come?
Yes, I'll come.
Do you swear?
I swear.
[suspenseful music plays]
-[radio bleeps] -[Mustafa] Osman, do you read me?
[Osman] I'm here, Inspector.
Send some units to the old Cevahir bazaar and get on it right away.
According to an informant, Atiye Özgürsoy is gonna turn up there.
Right, I'm on it.
Seal off the area, but no one moves in until you get the word from me.
-Understood? -Loud and clear, Inspector.
[ominous music plays]
Sir, we found out where the girl's gonna be.
Okay.
Was that Ozan?
No, dear.
That was the police, letting me know they've found Atiye.
[breathing heavily]
[tense music plays]
I wanna know everything.
From the beginning.
ÖZCAN MEAT AND DAIRY PRODUCTS
Wait here for me.
Be careful. God go with you.
[atmospheric music plays]
-[music intensifies] -[rushing, echoing]
[Nazım] We looked everywhere for you, I mean everywhere,
for five days.
And no sign of you.
I'd just about given up hope, but then…
they found where you'd… fallen into a deep hole.
[Nazım] Unconscious, but alive.
After that, you spent days drawing temples on the walls of your bedroom.
Saying to yourself,
"I have a duty. I have a duty."
Your mother thought you were ill.
But I knew you'd witnessed a miracle.
Why else were you suddenly…
[atmospheric music plays]
…insisting that we go to Urfa?
[Nazım] I believed you, my son.
I believed every word of it. And I set out to find what you had seen.
But my mistakes brought nothing but…
disaster to my family.
I didn't deserve you.
You can help me now…
if you still believe it.
I never stopped.
Do you have any idea what this is?
Hmm. Yeah.
[atmospheric music continues]
[Nazım] It's an ancient and rarely used language
based on a complex system of symbols.
For example,
these uppercase characters are related to the dimensions of the universe.
The important thing to know is that it isn't read as written.
There's a specific way to read it.
[echoing]
Erhan?
Hands in the air.
Don't worry, I'm not running away.
I committed no crime.
I've been set up. That's not who I am.
It's not that easy telling you the truth.
Calling you father again.
[Atiye sighs] But that is the truth! You are my father!
Hands in front. I have to cuff you.
We're holding the women in the van. Shall we take them in?
-Yeah, and this young lady too. -[Osman] Yes, sir.
[emotional music plays]
-[man] There's no pulse. Clear them away. -No!
-[man] Get her ready. -Let me go!
[sighs]
Osman, let her go. Let her go! Hold your fire!
[Erhan] "You are the mother of the universe.
You're nature itself.
You're the sum of divine powers that come from beyond time.
You're the queen of souls.
You are light and life."
[gasps]
-[woman breathes heavily] -[emotional music continues]
[Erhan] "You're eternal.
You're called Venus or Isis.
You are known in every land.
You are the goddess of 10,000 names.
And, for me…
you are the only one."
[sighs]
How is this possible?
I made those things when I was five years old.
Son, you need to find Atiye.
Atiye could…
be the last of her line.
The door will open in two days.
And when it opens, I will be there for my son.
[inhales] I don't need you at all.
Not at all.
[phone vibrates]
Don't answer it. Just leave it.
There's something you should listen to.
[Hannah] As long as we're being open.
Now, you either tell me where Erhan is hiding
or Elif's life is in danger.
Now I think you know who you can trust, son.
-[man over radio] Unit 457. Come in, 457. -[emotional music continues]
Confirm request for backup.
[brakes squeal]
I'm sorry, Inspector. I'll take the girl from here.
-[policeman] Who are you? -What the hell?
Shit!
Get going.
Atiye, I can't sit here all night.
Go do whatever the hell it is you have to do before they figure out what happened.
Okay?
You can… send me a line if you do manage to have that baby.
Go on.
Thank you again, Papa.
I'm not the one you need to thank.
[emotional music continues]
Chief Inspector…
Atiye is going to need your help.
[reporter] And the body had been floating in the sea for some time.
Police identified the dead man as Ozan Yılmaz,
son of prominent businessman Serdar Yılmaz.
Passersby found the body washed up on the shore…
Melek.
[reporter] …and immediately reported their gruesome discovery to the police.
[sobs]
[Serdar] Melek.
Melek. Darling…
[emotional music intensifies]
-Don't turn away from me. -Nuh-uh.
-Darling… I… -Nuh-uh.
[Melek, sobbing] No.
[Serdar, sobbing] Please… don't do this.
[Serdar, sobbing] Please, darling!
[both sob]
