Bet Your Life (2025) s01e03 Episode Script

1
You're awake, finally.
What's that?
I mean, you finally snapped out of it.
For the past half hour,
everything seemed to confuse you.
I put some cold water on my face,
I think that helped.
So does that mean you're all right now?
I'm fine.
Probably just not used to all
this fresh air. So much oxygen in Urla.
Seda, um… I better take off
while I'm still a little sober.
Oh. And go where then?
Let's toast,
your wine isn't even gone yet.
Sit down.
Mm.
Well, here's to us pulling this off, huh?
She blatantly celebrates
getting away with murder.
She's gonna kill me too.
Everything in life has its justice,
you know?
And in the end,
justice still knocks at everyone's doors.
I mean, if you hadn't helped us,
I'd have been completely ruined,
and my father
would've also achieved his goal.
-You saved me.
-Oh, that.
Cheers to that.
Easy. Mm Mm Mmm.
Seda, excuse me.
While I'm sobered up a bit,
I should head out.
We should really do this again
sometime in the future.
-Good night.
-İsa! İsa?
İsa!
İsa!
-Mmmm.
-İsa!
İsa!
Are you okay, İsa?
İsa!
BET YOUR LIFE
-İsa!
-İsa! İsa, wake up! Wake Up!
Seda.
Boca.
That's Müzeyyen Senar, Müzeyyen Senar.
I don't know anything.
I don't know what you're talking about!
Wake up, İsa!
İsa!
Aunty? Where am I? Where am I?
At the hotel.
Last night you showed up so wasted,
they put you in this room instead.
What it is a grown-ass man
drinking that much for?
I really hate myself.
I obviously passed out, but meanwhile,
Seda is as sober as you can get.
I thought I explained already.
Even the nicest Argun can bring
down the strongest in our family.
Where is Seda?
What did I just say three seconds ago?
And you're still gonna ask me that?
I might owe her an apology, Aunty.
Now, I've showed up
like a vagrant to her hotel.
She not here. She mentioned something
about some video and left in a hurry.
-She said video?
-Yes.
Do you know where my phone is?
Where is it? Do you see it?
Can you call it?
Here's your phone.
Seda picked it up from the ground.
Pull yourself together.
We have another guest staying here.
Okay.
Could she have drugged me
to get access to my phone?
No way, man.
It uses my fast to…
Ah, you gotta be kidding!
Ah, you gotta be kidding!
Wait, Erkut's videos, no.
She must've seen the videos, oh, no!
Ohhh! She's a murderer and a hacker.
She watched the videos.
Son of a…
Where are you, Seda?
Answer the phone or call me right back.
Hey, man, didn't I tell you to piss off
and leave me alone.
Well, you should've considered that
before staying at my daughter's hotel.
I had no idea
where I slept last night, all right?
Man, I got so drunk trying to keep up
with her, that's why I passed out here.
You couldn't call an Uber?
You spent the night in this hotel.
What would you think?
I'm telling you, man, there's nothing
going on between your daughter and I.
So if you know that,
why are you always around her?
That's none of your business.
Hm.
Well, then I guess…
I won't tell you where she went.
You're looking for her, right?
Just tell me.
Oh, come on now. Where has she gone?
She was going to the police station.
Fine, let's go.
Ah, İsa?
-Ahhh.
-Glad to see you upright.
What brings you here?
One of my friends, he's a journalist.
He's a crime reporter.
So I just dropped by to visit him.
So, what brings you here?
Oh, the Captain asked me to
so he could apologize.
Plus he said they're increasing security,
so that's good.
Hmmm. As they should. That's great.
Happy to hear that. Anything else?
What else?
I mean, it's early,
I figured it was something important.
Ah! So, I talked to the security company
about surveillance via video.
Ah, videohhhhh.
Say that again?
Uh, well, it's just that my aunt
said something about a video.
This must be what she meant.
No need to worry.
I wouldn't record you the way you were.
When you couldn't stand,
your aunt phoned and I answered
so she wouldn't worry about you.
Ahhh. Not what I assumed.
And that was?
Uh… I thought you had recorded me
just to embarrass me,
you know, on TikTok,
some bullshit that my mind was making up.
You were practically dead.
And I wouldn't shame you.
I bet you've seen a lot of bodies.
What was that?
Uh, you're right, I was practically dead.
Which was weird,
'cause I can usually handle my drink.
Something was off last night.
But I don't know what it was,
so, I'm really sorry.
It's unfinished, um…
But we'll finish it another time.
Great.
-See ya, İsa.
-Bye-bye.
It's unfinished, oh, God.
Will she end me as well?
Or is accusing her wrong of me?
Also, the officer sent me a video.
Oh god, I'm so confused now.
Baby-faced killer.
-Excuse me. Where can I find Erkut?
-Yes?
Sorry, he's off today.
Jeez, why do cops need a break?
He's not a soup vendor, he's a cop.
What if she really
did something like this?
How can I tell him? How can I tell him
that his daughter finished him off?
Tell me what, exactly?
You said you were looking for Seda.
She came out and you stayed inside.
What the hell are you up to?
I'm done answering to you. How many times
do I have to tell you to piss off?
Dear God, he's here again.
He's faster than this vehicle
Oh, please, God, help me.
-God, grant me strength.
-İsa, son.
I don't really enjoy haunting
you like this either, my boy,
but please, tell me if you know something.
Refik, I swear,
I don't know anything, okay?
What, do you think I enjoy
having you stuck to my ass?
I swear, I've told you everything.
Would you please go away?
Oh, my aunt.
Aunt, Auntie, what's up?
Where are you headed?
To a neighbor's.
You know him, Officer Erkut.
Oh, well, then I'll tag along.
-You wanna go?
-Sure, we'll have tea or something.
İsa, he's having a personal
problem with his sister.
He wants to talk about it.
I'm this town's Ann Landers.
I can listen to people's problems.
Maybe I can help.
I am Nuri Torbalılı's son,
after all, right?
My dear aunt.
Ayfer, I'm afraid we have a problem.
And it's not a small problem.
So you know my younger sister?
Well, she's met a guy.
And they started seeing each other,
and they've grown close.
His family came to ask for our blessings.
We gave 'em and everything seems fine.
Then, they wanted an engagement ceremony.
So we gave them that, too.
Ah, but now he just broke up with her,
-after the two just got engaged! Asshole!
-What a fucking loser.
So why did he break up with her?
Apparently, I'm the reason. You know,
because I haven't taken a wife of my own.
He won't dare marry a girl
whose older brother isn't married.
He believes if the eldest brother isn't
married, that family has serious problems.
So, in other words,
the people I consider to be my in-laws
are following the details
of my marital status.
Like some dating show.
The girl is so upset,
she can't leave her room.
She can't even leave her room,
she keeps crying,
which saddens us, too.
Ayfer, I know you're the woman
for this job.
As one of the most respected in town,
and that everybody can trust,
can I ask that you maybe go talk
to the family of this man?
So who's the boy?
He's the son
of the Değirmenci family, and ugly.
All righty. So let me go speak with them.
However, they are so unpredictable.
They are.
But don't worry.
I mean, if they love each other,
we will sort it right out.
From your lips to God's big ears.
Seriously, that would be amazing.
Or we're ruined!
Oh my God!
-You okay?
-It burns!
Give me the cup!
-Oh God, it's hot!
-Go! Cold water!
-Now I'm burned!
-Run it under cold water! Hurry!
-My rug.
-How did İsa burn himself?
I finally got rid of that girl.
And I told my family
that she broke up with me.
I'm already with someone even hotter.
You guys should try it sometime.
Did I just get my gift back?
I did get it back.
Bastard.
Auntie.
Auntie, I had a vision.
Yup, it was a vision, vision, vision.
What vision? Calm down.
Erkut, forget that son-in-law.
Tell her to forget him too.
-What happened?
-You are troubling yourselves for nothing.
He broke it off with her to go
on some date with another girl.
Wait, are you serious?
İsa, this isn't a subject to joke about.
I'm not joking around.
Tell me, does he have eyebrows
as thick as duct tape?
And a real square face?
And his pants are real snug?
That's right, a short guy,
with a butt like a duck.
Yeah, his family doesn't even know.
-He told them she broke it off.
-Hear that?
You're lucky this asshole's
out of the picture.
Tell your sister don't bother being upset.
Hand out food as a thanks to God.
Just give it to the poor. Get well soon.
Auntie, let's go.
We still have a lot to talk about.
So come on, let's go. Erkut, I'll see you
in half an hour for coffee.
Where are we going?
There he goes, off like a torpedo.
Ayfer, I'd swear he's got more insight
than his father did!
You psychopath! What happened in there?
Where did you get all that from?
Come on, come on.
I'm back in the game. My gifts are back.
Now I can finally solve this problem.
Wait, İsa, if you are joking,
we'll be the talk of the town.
Never mind that. Let me ask you something.
And be honest with me.
Sure.
What problem did you have
with Refik Argun?
What's this about?
Whenever his name is mentioned,
you get angry.
You curse him like a witch.
"He can't come to my funeral," and all.
Plus, you think Seda's great, but when
I saw her for dinner, you got mad.
And you're mean to the girl.
Obviously, Auntie, there's a problem.
I won't even deal with the stupid prick.
Auntie, come on now. For God's sake.
Don't run away, come on, come back.
Auntie, please. Just tell me the problem.
Well, he just… that guy Refik,
that prick ruined the life of a woman.
-Then buried her with his own hands.
-Who's the woman?
No, you know what?
I'm done talking about this.
I'm done wasting my breath.
What woman?
Did Refik… did he murder his wife?
Then Seda would've wanted revenge.
Ohhh.
What is this ordeal, man?
It's like a train of murder.
Hilmi, these are 4K quality, right?
I never said four K, Mehmet.
Oh, come on.
You might as well
put a flip phone up there.
How can we see who it is at night?
It's not like you're going to frame
the thief's picture and hang it, are you?
But Papa, how can we ensure our safety
with a camera if we can't see anything?
What is it then that you're implying?
That Hilmi is lying to us? You brat.
-Papa, you don't have to embarrass me.
-Just go and mind your own business.
Ayfer. Hello, dear.
-How's it going?
-Great.
Is this the video security
you were talking about?
After it's set up we won't have to worry.
Oh, well, that's great.
The room İsa stayed in
was cleaned this morning.
We had a reservation,
so I had to get it ready.
That's what I wanted to ask you about.
Why don't you sit down, please.
Um…
What year was İsa born?
Also, he studied agricultural engineering,
but where did he graduate from?
Uh, I want to surprise him with something
to show my appreciation
for him saving the vineyard.
Listen, Seda,
İsa chose to leave this town
when he was still a child.
He's like a comet.
He appears, then disappears.
Shows up for a few days.
But most likely… he'll leave again.
So don't rely on him when you make plans.
I'm gonna start my work.
What about all those videos
I sent to you the other day?
The question is,
do you think Seda's capable of murder?
I don't know.
Not sure what I believe anymore.
Hey, are you aware
of how Seda's mother passed away?
-Her cause of death?
-That's what I'm asking you.
I'm not sure.
I was a child when it happened.
I'm about to tell you something here,
but, you have to keep it a secret.
So, I'm not positive, but Refik…
-Looks like he murdered his wife.
-Seriously?
Yeah, I think so. Stay chill, all right?
If Refik killed his wife as you suspect,
does that mean Seda killed her father
to avenge her mother?
Listen to me, I'm not sure, all right?
I'm just guessing.
Aw, come on, don't give me that.
You're Bullseye İsa.
It's not guessing
when you always hit the target.
That's what I've always said. I'm getting
goose bumps thinking about it.
You should see my whole body.
Wait a sec.
-As they should. Happy to hear that.
-They are.
Okay. Go, go, go.
We need more evidence.
Where was Seda the day of the incident?
Mmm.
-And exactly how did her mother die?
-Ahhh.
Next time I go to the station,
I'll check in the file room.
Then we'll know for sure
how Refik's wife really died.
All right, cool cool, now we're talking.
Let's go.
Not at the same time.
-See ya later.
-I'll talk to you soon.
VOICE OF THE HEROES
Miss Seda was here before
you came. Maybe you saw her leaving.
Oh, yeah?
Huh. No I didn't. Why was she here?
We have a pretty small
printing house here,
and she had something to be printed.
That's why she came in.
She's really strong.
Like Xena, the warrior princess.
Fighting against all the men
of this town, especially her father.
-Just like Xena.
-When I met her she pulled a rifle on me.
You're lucky she didn't shoot you.
You're right.
You won't talk to me,
but you'll talk to this guy?
So you guys also do printing?
Mm-hm.
When the newspaper went bankrupt,
it was the printing that got us through.
Hmm.
I heard that Mr. Refik had some influence
over the newspaper's bankruptcy.
That's a tall tale. A total lie.
They went bankrupt 'cause
of their shitty writing.
You know, it's very hard
to be a journalist,
even in a small town like this.
-It's hard.
-Journalist, my ass.
You'd think he was the late Abdi ipekchi.
It's not like he's won a Pulitzer!
I have a question.
I'm just curious and all,
but why all the animosity
between you and Mr. Refik,
if you don't mind my asking?
What are you asking him for?
I can tell you that.
Yeah, because he's a piece of shit!
Refik passed away,
so all that animosity no longer exists.
What's your interest in this subject?
Because he's an idiot, obviously.
Doesn't even think about his father.
Leave my father out of this!
-What was that?
-What was what?
I was wondering if my father
was wrong about him.
Like when you get to know someone and they
turn out to be completely different?
My father loved Mr. Refik very much.
No, I highly respected Nuri, but,
-frankly Refik was an asshole.
-You are the asshole, limp-dick!
If you had a nutsack you wouldn't wait
till I was dead to talk so much bullshit!
You know what?
İsa, I'm about to lose my patience!
Now, tell me, what's going on?!
I don't ever get tired! 'Cause I'm dead!
-Dear God.
-You want me to haunt you all night?!
I think there's something wrong
with my lower intestines.
Where's the restroom?
I'll find it on the way out.
It's down the hallway.
First left, then right.
You are a good man.
Come on, let's go.
Yeah, yeah. What choice do I have, huh?
Go take a shit.
Seriously?
You can't stop talking for five minutes?
You barely let me speak.
-And I told you to stop lying!
-Lying about…
You keep on escaping, hiding behind
your aunt's skirt to avoid things!
You know I can't go near that woman!
-And why is that, I wonder?
-How the hell would I know?
Come on, you know.
You just don't want to admit it.
I swear to God, I don't know.
Look, İsa, son,
if you're talking about sabotaging Seda--
Hey, come on now. You know exactly
what I'm saying, so don't pretend.
Now would you get out of my face?
Shit, I can't disappear!
Stay here, then!
You know what they say,
the best visit is a short visit.
-Thank you very much, please excuse me.
-Oh, it's no problem.
Uh, stop by anytime
you want to talk more on Refik.
Thanks very much.
So, you're a Refik expert?
Yeah, like you know me at all.
Asshole.
It doesn't matter if you're dead or alive.
You lie, and lie.
Are you crazy? What did I lie about?
Why don't we start with
you're cursed by my aunt? Huh?
Care to explain? Or are you
going to ignore the question?
You think I'm faking, or what?
She has, like,
a metaphysical restraining order.
Tell me why she has that.
Although, I already know.
You do? You found out?
Oh, yeah.
Because you murdered your wife.
-Seriously?
-Why are you laughing?
I've known a lot of psychopaths, but you
are on a different level, friend.
-Damn.
-That's why God didn't take you to heaven.
He left you here
to be a ghost robot vacuum cleaner.
So, did Taygun
share that bullshit with you?
It wasn't Taygun. It was my Aunt.
Your aunt?
Wait a minute,
your aunt told you I killed her?
She didn't use those words.
What did she say? That you killed a woman
with your own hands.
Why else would she say that?
See, and now you're speechless.
You better put a stop
to this madness. That's horseshit!
-She died of natural causes!
-There we go, lying as usual again.
What are you talking about? Tell me!
Whatever, dude! Get lost!
Go somewhere else! Ah!
I don't even want the reward money
that you promised me, okay?
Oh, yeah? And what are you
gonna do about that bookie.
They didn't think to look for me here.
If they had, they'd be here already.
-That's what you think.
-What do you mean?
Do you wanna know where I was?
The prosecutor
has issued the indictment, Seda.
And those vineyard saboteurs
are going down.
I'm glad they'll be punished.
Too bad my father won't.
He got away with everything
he'd been doing.
Believe me, I didn't mean you any harm.
Seda.
You told me…
that you wanted to talk about İsa.
Is there a problem?
I would like for you
to run a background check.
And I want it to be extra thorough,
understood? Don't skip anything.
Seda's just playing it safe.
What do you mean?
You've ruined my life,
you and your daughter.
I can't take it anymore.
I have had enough!
Hey, would you please cut the crap?
What reason would my daughter
have to ruin your life?
So, my suspicions are correct.
Why don't you just say
what you're really trying to say.
Where do I begin?
Man, you don't even want to hear it.
I want nothing to do with you.
I'm done helping.
May all of you Arguns,
alive and dead, go rest in peace.
Good luck. Arrivederci.
Yesterday, I saw you talking secretly
with Bullseye İsa, Erkut.
I hope you weren't talking
about your absurd theories
about Miss Seda, were you?
You wouldn't do that. Correct?
Uh, but sir…
Oh, Papa.
You always used to tell me,
"One day you'll meet a girl,
you'll love her so much
you can't live without her."
You got it backwards.
'Cause when I found her,
that's when my heart started beating.
And now I'm running away from her.
Hey are you up there
pulling a fast one on me again?
Couldn't you just, you know, help me?
Please, can I get a sign?
Oh, dear God, protect me.
COME TO THE VINEYARD EARLY TOMORROW.
I HAVE A SURPRISE
What surprise? What is she planning?
Okay. Yeah.
I'LL BE THERE
Yeah?
-İsa.
-Yes?
-You have a visitor.
-Who is it?
Such a holy person.
It's so obvious now.
His aura shines bright. Go on.
Stop. What are you doing? Stop!
That's enough of that.
What is this, Auntie?
Uh, for a long time Miss Gülsüm, has been
looking for a good match for her son.
I think somebody put a curse on him.
-Me too.
-Because he's spellbound, cursed.
More like fate than a spell.
To last this long, the spell
has to be pretty powerful. Uh-huh.
Uh, yeah but, what does this
have to do with me?
Word has gotten around about
what you did at Erkut's house earlier.
So they…
thought they'd try their luck with you.
We've tried everything, and nothing works.
We even tried hanging a ribbon
every Tuesday
at the tomb of Tekke Dede
during the reading of Isha,
but it's only made us more miserable.
Oh, for God's sake.
Who really believes in that? Be sensible.
Don't say that.
Even Miss Seda is there every Tuesday
at the same time without exceptions.
-Who? Our friend Seda?
-Yes, her.
So then,
Miss Seda, she'd have been there
a couple of Tuesdays ago?
-She's there every Tuesday!
-Oh.
She's never missed a Tuesday
for three months.
Because you can't miss, not even once,
or your wish won't come true.
-Can't miss.
-That's the rule.
Oh God!
Right. The text wasn't the sign
because you are.
You two are my sign.
Right, Papa? Oh, man!
I gotta go. See you, Auntie.
You let them in, didn't you, you tomato?
And look, they drove İsa crazy.
Papa!
You sent the right sign
at the right time, Papa!
You haven't left me alone.
Seda is innocent! Seda is innocent!
İsa.
What's going on? Why are you yelling?
Because, man, I practically blew up
everything I've been working on.
I know it's crazy,
but I thought…
I honestly thought your killer was Seda.
Hm.
But I don't any longer, all right?
She was somewhere else when it happened.
I was able to check her alibi.
Buddy, I'm on to you.
You know I…
Forget it.
How absolutely blessed you are
you've never shown Seda
what complete idiotic garbage
comes out of your mouth.
Yeah, lucky me.
Tomorrow's gonna be a totally different
day. I can already feel it.
Psst!
You said surprise,
and I came flying. For you.
You put a lot of hard work
into making these.
So as a gesture of appreciation…
You put info about me on the label.
SPECIAL SERIES BY İSA TORBALILI
Seda, thank you.
You have no idea how much this means.
I did a complete background check
to gather information on you.
I had to go behind your back. I'm sorry.
Don't worry about it.
I don't have anything to hide.
Except you're lying.
I wish you had come and asked, İsa.
Ask me about what?
Apparently you've been secretly
accusing me of murder?
What? I mean, who…
Where is this coming from all of a sudden?
You sent the whole precinct after me.
Please don't ever come here again.
This is the last time we see each other.
Goodbye then.
