You took Nunu?
Come in.
Is that why you accepted our invitation?
To poach Nunu from us and run?
Nunu made this decision himself, Kenan.
There's this thing called free will, you know.
But you asked him.
Well, what can I say, I've built strong relationships.
Is that so?
Your ego rivals the sky, huh?
Exactly.
That's right.
Would you like a drink?
What on earth are we doing?
We're getting on with business.
With Aslı, Güliz, and the like.
We're doing well.
And we're getting results too.
The viewers certainly seem to think so.
Fuck off, Lale. Fuck off.
Why do you say that, Kenan?
Doesn't the opinion of the audience reign supreme?
I thought we had infinite respect for them.
That was our maxim.
I thought you were leaving.
Well, I didn't.
Why didn't you call?
I didn't feel the need to.
Let's say that
I realized
that life went on without me.
The world just kept turning.
With Müge.
With Gül.
Or whomever.
Turns out it can go on.
What would you have me do, Lale? What was I supposed to do?
-Fall off the face of the earth? -No.
I think you made the right decision.
Bravo. Congratulations.
Not even a flash of anger, huh?
And here I thought…
When you showed wearing a pair of jeans…
You had the Band-Aid on your finger…
I'd cut my hand.
-So you're saying it wasn't about me. -I'm not saying anything, Kenan.
Whiskey.
I left a bottle here.
It's not your drink, but…
maybe you didn't throw it out?
So what is it that you want?
Just doing my job.
We said, "one last round."
It still is.
It's gonna be my final season. That hasn't changed.
And after that?
I don't know.
What do you want?
I've always been very clear about that, Lale.
Always.
Let's put everything aside.
Let's have a chat like old friends.
I'm curious. I really am.
Why didn't you leave?
Sure, let's have a chat.
There's this guy.
He's so harsh.
So hurtful.
While I was trying to walk on my own path,
I realized
I was only trying to get him to like me.
All that mattered was how much he liked me,
how much he wanted me.
I disappeared without him.
I was basically smothering you?
What do people say nowadays?
"Toxic relationship," is it?
No, it's not that. It's love.
Love means filling up your every cell with the same feeling.
Seeing everything, absolutely everything
through their eyes.
Seeing even yourself
through their eyes.
So…
So?
So, that's it. It's love.
Is that a bad thing, Lale?
Something you must get rid of?
No, quite the opposite.
It's what gives my life meaning.
It's what makes me feel alive.
But, you see…
Sometimes it's so all-consuming…
I can't breathe.
Breathing.
It's really hard.
So is that it?
Tell me.
All you want to do is breathe?
I can't even breathe at the moment, Kenan.
I can't even sleep.
I'm not living.
My life is so…
I just wanted it to be a bit easier.
You know?
It could be a tiny bit easier.
I'm so tired.
Tired of living with a constant fear of loss,
of always walking on eggshells.
I'm so sick and tired of it.
So my love for you is conditional?
I feel like I'd fall from your grace if I failed.
Everything I do,
I do it for you to like me.
To make you happy. Everything.
And it's exhausting.
It really is.
I want to take a minute
and get off this roller coaster.
We’ve eaten, drunk, and traveled the world,
all I'm trying to say is,
we could have done with a bit of peace and quiet, you know?
I miss you so much.
So much!
Come on. Don't do this.
If that's what's keeping us apart,
let's just drop everything and leave.
Please. I'm begging you. Let's just go.
Come on, Kenan. You can't leave this place.
We can live by the Aegean if you want.
Start an olive oil business.
Let's just be together.
I'm begging you, Lale!
I miss you so much!
If we did that,
you'd become obsessed trying to make the greatest olive oil in the world.
And we'd still fight.
Then let's just kiss and make love.
And do nothing else.
I love you so much!
So much!
It never dies. Never subsides.
I'm so in love with you.
All right.
One last season, okay? Then we'll leave this place.
I only want to be with you. I'm begging you, please.
I miss you so much!
Please don't leave me. I'm begging you.
I can't live without you.
Please don't leave me.
Okay.
You're everything to me. You're all I have.
Okay. Let's do it.
Okay.
Okay. We're okay.
We'll do whatever you want to do, okay?
I promise you.
-Okay. -I promise.
All right.
Okay. We're okay.
All right.
AS THE CROW FLIES
My love.
Hello, dear.
Still haven't found her?
What are you talking about?
Aslı, what did I say?
Oh, right.
I'm on it.
But nothing yet.
I'm worried about you, Güliz.
It's done and gone. Let it go. Is that lowlife worth it?
Aslı, just get it done!
You promised! Ugh!
-Come on, get up. We overslept. -Wait.
I can talk to Güliz and calm her down.
Are you stupid, Yusuf? Don't be ridiculous.
Where's your phone? Post a story.
-She must be stalking you non-stop. -Can I not?
No. She'll think you're hiding something if you don't, Yusuf. Come on!
Get up.
I made you breakfast, my love, but…
-I'm late. I have to go. Come here. -Okay.
-See you. -See you.
Okay, I'll patch you in tonight, then.
All right. We'll call you then.
Speak soon, dear. Bye.
-Where have you been? -I overslept.
But your interview with Resul is in an hour.
I'll make it. Is Güliz in?
I don't know. Also, what does it matter?
I should check on her. She was fuming earlier.
-Don't go. -Huh?
Don't go.
You're sucking up to her. Don't.
You're better than that.
Be your own person. You're what matters. We're what matters.
I should still check on her.
THE OTHER SIDE
The bird knows how small and delicate she is,
and that she could be devoured in a single bite.
So it can never carry itself as confidently as the lion,
no matter how strong it is.
And because of that, it's always defeated,
and full of fear.
Honey.
How are you?
You look better, like you're getting over it.
Who are you sleeping with?
Tell me about your love life
and cheer me up.
What? No one.
Come on. I can sense these things.
You look too happy and relaxed.
You're clearly getting laid.
Oh, you! Nothing gets past you.
Well, I'm getting around.
There's no one specific.
Just a few flings.
For energy release.
Whatever.
Still got nothing on Yusuf?
Maybe he was hooking up with someone and they broke up.
Isn't that possible?
I think that's it.
Fine.
See you.
A gift to celebrate.
By the way, do you two know each other?
Let me remind you, though. You were Büşbüş.
Büşbüş? What was that?
Never mind.
Ancient history.
We've never been close enough to talk about his private life.
Find out who Yusuf's involved with.
But why?
Didn't you guys break up?
I'm in love with him! I'm head over heels!
It's over. He's just a lowlife. Let it go.
Who are you sleeping with?
There's no one specific.
Just a few flings.
For energy release.
Where is Aslı?
Hello to you too, Güliz.
I said, where is Aslı?
She's working.
Where? What is she doing?
I'm not sharing that information with you.
Where is Aslı Tuna right now? Where is she?
Get me her work schedule! Now!
No personal information should be shared by anyone. Okay guys?
-Understood? -Excuse me?
Let me make it clearer.
As of now, we have a new rule.
No information about our newsroom
is to be shared with anyone,
including the management.
Understood?
And you should calm down. All right?
You're making a scene. Go back to your office.
All right, everyone get back to work.
Go on!
There are examples of this in history.
Now, these examples--
Sorry.
I apologize.
Please continue. I'm listening.
As I said, such things have transpired many times in history.
Civilizations have taken various precautions--
INCOMING CALL GULIZ' ASSISTANT
I'm so sorry.
I'm listening.
What was I saying?
-Various examples… -Yes.
Various precautions were taken.
But of course, with the advancement of technology--
GÜLİZ ASSISTANT
I'm busy, dear. Just text me!
Aslı, Güliz wants to see you urgently.
She's in her office. She wants you to drop everything.
I'll see her when I'm done.
I'm so sorry, sir. I'm done now. Please continue.
With the advancement of technology…
Yes, with that,
important steps in agriculture and…
Who are you sleeping with?
What? No one.
Oh, come on. I can sense these things.
You look too happy and relaxed.
You're clearly getting laid.
Ma'am, I can't drive you.
-Why not? -I was asked where we were.
Did you tell them?
I was told to stay put.
-Give me that! -Ma'am?
Ma'am?
That fucking bitch!
How did it happen?
That car rear-ended the other.
-Isn't that Aslı Tuna? -The famous TV host.
I'm sharing Aslı Tuna's accident right now, everyone.
Look, right there.
Who're you running from, vermin?
Have you lost it?
I have, sweetie. I'll fuck you up. I'll destroy you! You're dead!
You're gonna wish you'd died in this accident.
You and that scumbag Yusuf.
You tried to pull one over on me.
And don't even think about running.
I'll destroy you!
You're dead!
Güliz, dear…
He loves me.
See, not everything in this world is yours.
He doesn't love you.
You're nothing to him, okay?
So… who's the vermin now?
Güliz! Are you okay?
She really fainted!
Could you carry her into the car? The back seat. Be careful.
Güliz.
Careful. Güliz, can you hear me?
Güliz.
Aslı?
WHERE ARE YOU? WHY IS GULIZ LOOKING FOR YOU?
ARE YOU ALL RIGHT? ANSWER ME. THIS IS NOT OKAY.
ASLI TUNA AND GÜLİZ TÜMER'S SCANDALOUS ACCIDENT…

WHERE IS YUSUF TUNCA?
NEST OF BETRAYALS
WHO'S SLEEPING WITH WHO?
IT'S SUCH A MESS. CAN SOMEONE SUMMARIZE?
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK, YUSUF. YOU'RE THE MAN
CAN'T EXPECT SERIOUS NEWS FROM YOU. YOU HAVE NO SHAME!
TRENDING TOPICS: #LOVETRIANGLE #ACCIDENT
Thank you.
Come here, darling.
Listen to me. Don't worry about a thing, okay?
These fellas will take care of everything.
We've built an excellent legal team.
My princess. All I want is you to be well.
Look, anything you want,
whatever it costs, I'll make it happen.
Well, do you have some ideas?
We've looked over their contracts.
We can implement many penalties.
They'll be in debt forever.
There are severe clauses.
You have legal rights too.
A defamation suit.
And we can bring up the accident you've just had.
A criminal suit is possible too.
Let's do…
LET ME COME OVER AND SEE YOU. PLEASE!
…all of it.
All of it.
Let's do everything necessary. Anything we can do.
It's fine by me.
Hello? Yusuf, hi. How are you?
Come over if you're free. I'll drop you a pin.
Just to catch up.
We've been together since the beginning. I mean, since Büşbüş.
Bravo.
Can you believe those guys
put us through this knowing everyone with a phone will see it?
Look at them.
We're screwed, aren't we?
What do you guys think?
It's not over yet.
Chin up.
I should have been
honest from the start, shouldn't I?
Yes.
Anyway. Let's look at the angles. Okay?
Please tell me everything that's happened, from the beginning.
All right?
There's nothing we can do, Aslı.
I'd advise you to sell all of your assets.
Of course, this is a substantial debt.
It'll take time to pay off.
To keep you out of jail,
we'll try to restructure the debt as much as possible.
I wish you the best.
Don't try to call me. I'm gone.
You should go apologize to Güliz.
Save yourself. She loves you.
She'll forgive you. Go to her and apologize.
You're gonna apologize.
Try to sort it out peacefully, okay?
She's clearly in love with you. She'll soften up, don't worry.
Lale, ma'am.
I mean, it's good to have a conversation, of course.
On the other hand, you guys are free to have
and feel whatever you want, Yusuf.
No one else can have a say.
Much less punish you for it!
But they did it behind her back.
If you'd just told her…
But it wouldn't have changed anything if they had told her.
We all know what Güliz is like and what she'd do.
She'd have tried to punish them anyway.
Isn't that terrible, though? Having to give in?
That's life, my boy.
You give in when you have to.
Lale.
I think
it's all up to you now, Yusuf.
Life's going to throw you many curveballs like this.
Think about who you really are,
and be true to that person.
Let your heart decide. Hear me?
You can't decide based only on what we say.
If we tried to help you by giving you advice now,
it'd only be a disservice to you.
So…
stand tall and own up to your actions.
Take responsibility.
Okay?
WE HAD SOMETHING AND IT'S OVER NOW.
-Good morning, ma'am. -Good morning.
Good morning.
Kenan's not here, is he?
I haven't seen him, ma'am.
And I hear he won't be in.
Ma'am, I keep covering these up, but maybe we should…
What?
I mean, you know best, but…
Maybe some injections could help?
-Leave it. -Sorry?
Leave it as it is.
But it doesn't look very--
Don't worry about it. Thanks.
Just leave it.
Thanks, everyone. You can all leave.
Let's go.
Of course, there'll come a day
when the lions will step out of the jungle one by one.
The weak will accept defeat
and realize that they must leave.
Müge, ma'am!
-Hi. Good morning. -Morning.
When will you be back? Kenan's not in either.
I need your approval for this. They're waiting to hear from us.
I'm not coming back.
-But-- -I'm gone.
But Müge, this needs to be approved urgently!
-It's very important. -No, it's not.
Nothing can be this important or this urgent.
Shouldn't health come first?
Of course, you don't get it yet.
But that really doesn't matter.
You should go too.
See your significant other or hang out with your friends.
Don't wear yourself out so much
for some bullshit approval.
Life doesn't have to be this hard.
It's not worth it.
It never will be.
And some lions
will try to reign in the jungle until the last second.
What goes up with velocity
naturally comes down in the same manner.
The bird must come to realize
this is the risk of a shortcut, covering the distance as the crow flies.
Because there is always a cost
for a life like that.
Honey! Welcome home!
Come on in.
Your dad will be home soon.
There's your slippers.
I'll just go check on the food.
There are two kinds of tragedies in this world.
One is not getting what you want.
And the other is getting everything you want.
DADDY MY PRINCESS, IT'S ALL DONE.
THEY CAN NEVER FIND A JOB OR LIVE IN ISTANBUL
Titi!
Where are you, you moron?
Thanks.
I guess you're the only anchor now.
I am.
So you're back at the helm again,
but this is still your last round?
THE OTHER SIDE WITH LALE KIRAN
This is Lale Kıran's final show.
We're all very lucky to have gotten the chance
to work with you.
Lale.
You…
You'll always be our hero.
All right, guys.
The last show and the last countdown.
Ten,
nine, eight…
Two, one…
You're on, Lale.
Maybe that's the nature of the jungle,
and lions must always be there.
Until they die of old age.
Until there's not a single lion left in the world.
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.
The climate crisis has added to both droughts and floods.
An analysis of the 20 years of NASA satellite images
showed record temperatures around the world
and an increase in floods.
I'm Lale Kıran.
Welcome to The Other Side.
ALWAYS DO THE BEST YOU CAN
I'M NOT APOLOGIZING, NOT AT ALL
As we all know, the values in the world
change every ten years.
Systems gradually become corrupted.
Things change. Things malfunction.
The ones that should leave, leave.
When we look at change itself,
it's actually a very transient concept.
Because no matter how much change the world goes through,
it's always integrity that remains.
If you stop and think about it,
isn't it integrity and fairness
that the world needs the most
in our era?
And of course, in this system and in our professional lives,
we change and renew too,
from time to time, as we must.
But when we're doing that,
we must be really smart
about how to interpret the inputs,
about what we need,
what we need to keep, and what we need to let go.
If you can have a set of values,
a true set of values,
I don't think
you need to fear the change itself.
In other words, if you have a code,
you can have a presence until you die,
or maybe even after you die.
I wish you all wonderful lives that you can be truly proud of.
And I'd like to thank you for having me.
Thank you so much.
Lale, ma'am.
-Here it is. -Oh.
-Thank you so much. -You're very welcome. Bye.
What are you doing here?
Well, picking you up.
-Why? -Why do you think?
So…
Tell me, what do we do now?
I have a plan.
As usual, huh?
Indeed.
So we're not going anywhere.
We're not going anywhere.
We'll be here.
We've still got so much to do.
For the lion, the war never ends.
The lion just won't die. And as long as it breathes, it carries on.
That is its nature.
The hunt, the chase, it's the way of the lion.
The lion will stick around until the jungle defeats it.
It always finds new land to roam
and never stops fighting.
Aslı, get the door. It must be Nurfer and everyone.
Slow down, Emre!
But it's my turn!
Found you.
My turn to show up at your door.
What's this?
Tea.
Would you like some?
I would. It was a long trip. Thanks.
Now put that down. We're leaving.
To go where?
Back to our lives.
To fight, Aslı.
Let's do it.
