Reminder (2025) s01e08 Episode Script
Episode 8

reminder.
[Güneş] I can't believe
you postponed your honeymoon
to catch up on the gossip, Özgen.
I would cancel everything for this, okay?
What happened at the wedding, girl?
What was going on up there
while we rollicked downstairs?
Why am I reading about it on social media?
Shame on you.
I told you, Beren.
I told you to keep your mouth shut.
I had to tell someone. You know me.
Those photos of you kissing Deniz…
Is that all? Because I only have two.
Gosh. It seems I had a legendary wedding,
and I had no idea.
-So, tell me.
-Özgen, enough.
-Stop it.
-No, keep going.
We want to hear the naked truth.
-You will tell all. [laughs]
-[Özgen] Yes, yes. Let's talk.
We were arguing,
and you two made us reconcile.
Okay. Then we had the engagement ceremony.
Then there was dancing and all that. And?
Then…
I went to get your speech from the room.
Deniz was there too.
Hakan didn't write his speech,
did he? Hmm?
He sent Deniz to copy my speech.
-I know him inside out. I really do.
-[shushing]
Actually, Deniz and I argued upstairs.
Right when the argument
was heating up, I--
-The whole place caught fire. [laughs]
-Stop shouting, girl.
Stop shouting, girl.
That got them looking. [chuckles]
Yes.
-Yes to what?
-Keep going.
Don't stop. You're live on air.
Oh, your event planner…
Was her name Ceyda?
-[chuckles] Ceyda? That name stuck.
-[Özgen] Şeyma.
Um, she said we would find
the photographer and sue him.
Oh! Do we know who he is?
They're going to find out. We'll talk.
Um… How do you feel about the photos?
I don't know what to feel.
I panicked a little at first
because the photo…
is more than your everyday leaked pic.
But then I thought
this is my most candid photo with Deniz,
who has never wanted to show his face.
Oh, I could just eat you up!
Girl, the fire is already alight!
Look at you and your rosy cheeks.
-Oh, come on. Stop it. [giggles]
-[giggles] I can see it, love.
You're head over heels.
-All right, enough.
-How did Deniz react?
That's what I want to know.
I don't know.
We didn't get to talk about it.
What?
-Oh!
-Honestly, we didn't talk.
You know what?
I think he must be relieved now.
Think about it.
There's nothing left to hide.
[Özgen] Right.
Wait a minute, wait a minute,
wait a minute, wait a minute.
The speech Hakan wrote at the wedding,
the one that made me cry…
Could that be the speech Deniz wrote
for you after he kissed you?
Could they be the same?
The guy spoke from his heart.
It was sincere.
-[Beren] Yeah.
-[groans]
Besides, Deniz didn't have time
to write something like that.
It's impossible.
Oh, really?
What was Deniz so busy with?
Questions, questions.
This is like an interrogation.
Sit down and sip your coffee,
or get lost already.
What… What exactly was he so busy with,
for example?
Okay, she has an excuse
for being late for work.
-Why are you late?
-Oh, darn.
I got fined
because my scooter's mirror was broken.
-How did that happen?
-[Beren] I have no idea.
Someone probably hit it in the car park
at my apartment.
Anyway…
So, you guys…
Are you officially back together now?
I don't know.
Since the wedding, I have been helping
Ayça prepare for her move to America.
We still have things to do.
-Hmm.
-He's working on the London job.
I guess we're taking things slow
this time.
THE REAL MR. ALPHA!
Deniz Derenoğlu
Architect
THE REAL MR. ALPHA!
[sighs]
[phone rings]
Hello?
All right, put him through.
Yes, Mr. Rauf?
Okay, I'm coming over now.
[sighs]
[knocks on door]
-Mr. Rauf.
-Oh. Come in, Deniz. Come.
[Deniz sighs]
How are you?
I'm curious.
You wouldn't call unless it were urgent.
You probably noticed some tension
in the office.
A photo of you and Güneş was leaked.
That's correct.
Our rivals still haven't removed
Güneş's poster from the construction site,
like the one hanging outside.
Yes, I know.
I drive by it every day. [clears throat]
[sighs] The client just called me.
To ask if it's really you in the ad
with Güneş.
They see this
as a prestige project, you know?
So, what's your verdict, Mr. Rauf?
I haven't reached one yet.
You're my key player.
We take this decision together.
I think you should avoid
dealing with clients directly.
Why don't you take charge
of the London project?
What do you think?
I mean…
Are you asking me to move to London
and be more hands-on with the business?
[Rauf] The guys in London have wanted
you there from the beginning.
We'll make it worth your while.
Just make your mind up.
All right. Um, I'll think about it.
[Rauf] You wrap up the London project.
Once things settle,
we can discuss the terms again, okay?
[breathes deeply]
Excuse me.
[Pervin]
So, you're not leaving immediately.
I've fallen in love
with İstanbul again, Pervin.
But in a different way.
[parrot] Love, love.
[chuckles]
Smarty-pants.
Hmm.
Besides, you might need
a lawyer you can trust around here.
Is this about Rauf?
[clicks tongue] The guy is a playboy.
It's nothing to do with me, Mahir.
Oh, just stop reminding me of him.
[clicks tongue]
-Anyway, fine.
-[sighs]
About the wedding.
Did you see how Boran showed off
as he pretended to be Mr. Alpha?
-[laughs]
-[chuckles]
Oh… He's launching a new men's magazine.
-Hmm?
-Hmm.
[scoffs] What does that rookie know
about publishing?
He said he's naming the magazine
Mr. Alpha.
[scoffs]
He's relying on his media mogul father.
Hmm. But…
think again.
Who else could he be relying on?
Who?
My rose.
You said, "My dear editor Güneş
is still together with Boran." Right?
-Yes.
-You did.
I like Ms. Güneş.
She's a good person, quiet and gentle.
But she's not all that reliable, right?
What's this?
When was this taken?
It's new.
[gasps, sighs]
Mr. Alpha turned out to be Mr. Derenoğlu!
Mr. Alpha turned out to be a Greek statue!
Broad shoulders!
[chuckles]
He's the man from the ferry tale!
Now it makes sense.
If he told me to jump, I would!
[scoffs]
Güneş, a friend is asking -
where is the rest of this love story?
Are you early too?
[kisses]
[kisses]
Yes, I left early today.
I'm a little hungry.
[Deniz] Let's order something right away.
The wedding planner has found the guy
who took our photos.
We can sue him if we want to.
Do you want to talk to her?
No need. It doesn't matter anymore.
Really? It doesn't matter?
Then why are you upset?
[chuckles] You may have gotten rid
of Mr. Alpha forever.
Doesn't that make you happy?
How are you?
I couldn't call from the office today.
There were some issues.
Is this what's bothering you?
Deniz, what's wrong?
As I said. Problems at the office.
My mind's on that. [sniffles]
[Umay] Sorry,
but I also saw your photo, Deniz.
Do whatever you want with Güneş,
but you can't just drag me to London
like a suitcase.
What is on your mind,
and why are you asking me?
I can't leave my job because of our plans
for the future.
So, I'm the one to blame
for your job commitments.
Do whatever you want.
There is no plan involving both of us,
and I don't expect anything from you.
Umay, I thought we were trying
to agree as two adults
and find a way forward for the baby.
Is this your plan?
Hmm.
Are you asking me
to leave everything behind
and live with you in London for a year?
I'm asking.
You could do photography, maybe.
Or take some time out for yourself.
[sighs]
Fine. All right.
On one condition though.
Seeing as the baby will be born in London,
we will get married,
even if it's just on paper, Deniz.
[Güneş]
You don't have anything to tell me?
I need to go to London.
[Güneş] Go.
It's just for two days.
What's the matter? Lon…
Are you sad because we'll be apart
for two days?
Really?
[chuckles] It's always extremes with you.
This time, it will be longer.
I need to be there for about a year
to oversee the project.
One year? This is a surprise.
When did you find out?
[clicks tongue] Um,
when the photo was leaked.
The client asked my boss if it was me.
Of course.
It's the same issue again.
Okay, I get it.
But nothing is certain yet.
I might quit my job.
It's an option.
I see. It's big enough
to affect your career
if it's bothering you so much.
If I quit…
I won't get my cut,
and I won't have any clients left.
Regardless, I'll find a way.
I'll figure it out.
-Us?
-Huh?
What about us? Is this it?
How?
Why are you looking at me like that?
Like it's my fault again.
[breathes heavily, huffs]
I never said that, Güneş.
[Güneş] I can see it in you, Deniz.
I know you. I can see it in your eyes.
Back then,
you told me work was irrelevant.
You even accused me
of being careless, remember?
How does it feel now
that it's about your work?
Do you get it, Deniz?
[clicks tongue, sighs]
Güneş, please don't.
[Güneş] Do you realize what happened?
Mr. Alpha is over.
He's exposed.
Everyone knows, and no one cares now.
The hype is gone.
It will fade away.
People might lose interest in my articles.
It's not much different for me either.
It's not the same, but it's close.
I could lose my job too.
But on the way here,
I thought about it, Deniz…
Does it even matter?
Does it?
We can finally be together.
-Does it matter?
-Yes, true. You're right.
Um…
I'll find a way.
Don't worry about it, okay?
Do you really want to be together, Deniz?
Sure, we seem to have
rekindled something, but…
I can see we won't be the same.
[Deniz] I'll fix this, Güneş.
Just give me some time, and trust me.
I've got this.
You were right when we broke up.
It's hard to trust again.
I see the same look in your eyes, Deniz.
Güneş, where are you going?
-Güneş, wait.
-We'll talk later.
-Güneş?
-Later!
[person on TV] Leyla. Wait, wait.
-Leyla, Leyla, stop. Don't go, wait, wait.
-[sobbing]
-Leyla.
-[sobbing continues]
[Deniz] Why are you upset?
-I asked you what was wrong. Tell me.
-[sniffles, sobs]
[Güneş] They broke up this time.
Leyla, stop.
-Leyla!
-So what? They'll make up soon.
I said they broke up, Deniz.
What if they don't make up?
I can't believe you.
It's just a movie, it's fiction.
Life isn't like this at all.
I swear it's not.
Don't get upset over it.
[Güneş] What do you mean
life is different?
Breakups are real.
And I'm not crying over this.
Then why?
[sobs, sniffles]
It just hit me. [breathes shakily] What…
What if one day we break up too?
But why are you
even thinking of breaking up?
Oh, enough already, girl! Ugh!
The guy's out of breath chasing you!
How long does he have to chase you, huh?
-I'm sweating here. [sobs] Ooh!
-All right, all right. Come to me.
Come here.
[kisses]
Listen, I would chase after you
and convince you.
We would make up, okay?
-Would we?
-Yes.
-Would you win me back?
-Of course. It's just a movie.
Stop thinking about it.
But breakups are real. Look.
What if they don't make up?
Yes, people break up, but this is a movie.
I would find a way to win you back.
I think you got carried away here.
-Look at your eyes. Please stop it.
-Promise?
[kisses] Promise.
Don't stress over a movie.
It's dumb. Stop watching it
and come closer.
-It hurts here. Kiss me here too.
-Where does it hurt?
-Here.
-[chuckles]
Oh. [kisses] It hurts here too?
-Uh-huh.
-Does it hurt anywhere else?
[Güneş] Mmm.
Look, he's still chasing after you.
-Enough, girl!
-Seriously, enough.
Listen, I'll switch it off altogether.
Stay here with me.
Come here.
[Pervin] Güneş, dear.
You're not scheming behind my back, right?
I don't even know what you mean, Pervin.
Boran is preparing to release a magazine
named Mr. Alpha.
Mr. Alpha?
[Pervin] Mm-hmm. You didn't know?
You called me. You said
you were moving forward with Boran.
Pervin, I really had no idea about this.
I asked you to stick
with the "Boran is Mr. Alpha" story
for your readers,
not start a magazine with him.
Why would I do that?
I'm telling you, I don't know about it.
And Boran isn't even in my life anymore.
I don't know what to believe anymore.
I mean… I saw those photos
of you and Deniz too.
Honey, now you have to win over
the readers and me once again.
-What do you mean?
-What will you write about, for instance?
What's your next story?
Will you go on about Deniz?
Deniz and I…
Let's not start again, please.
Write about your affair with Deniz.
Tell them how you were spied on,
how the photos were taken.
Capitalize on it while it's trending.
Don't waste time.
How can you be sure this photographer
was the one in the room?
I saw him at the wedding.
He wasn't one of my guys. I warned him.
It's on the cameras too.
Take a look.
He was waiting on the balcony
right across from your room.
Did… Did you watch us with these cameras?
-[sighs heavily]
-Yes.
But don't worry,
the cameras are only in the halls.
[scoffs]
Don't be embarrassed, Ms. Güneş.
I've seen all sorts of things at weddings.
[chuckles]
Ah. There.
This guy filmed you
and sold your photos. See.
Can you fast-forward our footage?
The thing is,
someone came into our room by mistake.
Hmm. Sure, let's see.
Yes.
-You… You can skip this part.
-Okay, sure. I'll do that.
Who's that? Do you know her?
[gasps]
[giggles] Look,
she walks into the wrong room and panics.
See how she flees?
Is that Umay?
How do you know her?
Um…
I met with her recently for her wedding.
She wants a long veil
that flows down the stairs.
Umay is getting married?
Yes. Everyone's getting married.
It's wedding season.
We haven't even discussed the marriage,
and here you are planning a wedding?
Umay, what is all this?
Are you playing games with me?
You said it was just a formality.
I haven't even agreed to that yet.
I think
you're getting ahead of yourself here.
[chuckles]
You're the one asking me
to change my whole life, Deniz.
I have my pride too.
-[sighs]
-At least give me this.
I agreed to all of your terms.
You have to be reasonable here.
There won't be a wedding, Umay.
Fine, Deniz.
It doesn't have to be a huge blowout.
But let's at least talk to the planner
and tell her what we want.
You owe me that much.
When you decided to drag me to London…
When you asked me to change my life,
I didn't behave like this.
I didn't make a scene.
Did I?
[romantic piano music playing]
To what do I owe this honor, Ms. Güneş?
I wanted to take you out for lunch
as a thank you.
-Why are you so surprised?
-[scoffs] Really?
After seeing that wedding photo,
I honestly thought
you'd never call me again.
[Güneş] Hmm.
I can explain that to you.
I don't want you to be upset.
-Not be upset?
-Don't be.
You always thought of me.
Now I'm thinking of you.
Now it's my turn.
I mean, what would I do without you,
all on my own, right?
[Boran clicks tongue] No, no, no.
[stammers] Come on, don't exaggerate.
I didn't do anything.
-Really.
-Of course you did.
What more could you do?
You did everything for me.
You even hired a photographer.
The wedding planner
found your photographer.
I also heard about the magazine. Thanks.
I guess you were thinking of me again.
[clears throat] Yes.
No one ever believed in me, you know?
I've had this idea
since the first time I saw you.
Like I said, I'm an investor, Güneş.
Oh, you invested in me?
It's because I love you.
Don't think otherwise.
[sighs]
Who didn't believe in you?
Your father?
Is he still scolding you at this age?
Is that why you're like this, Boran?
[sighs deeply]
Where's this coming from?
You're normally a thoughtful,
kind, and good man.
Something about you feels comforting.
But I'm not your Mr. Alpha, right?
That's exactly what you don't get.
You don't have to be Mr. Alpha.
It's time you go be yourself
with someone else.
All right.
What will you write about
without Mr. Alpha?
-What's your plan?
-[chuckles]
Deniz's face is out there now.
Everyone saw him.
Now what? The mystery factor is gone.
What now?
I was going to explain that to you,
but I guess you were too busy
scheming and manipulating me to notice.
But I figured it out.
I'm still deeply in love with Deniz.
But it's fine.
Don't worry. I don't want you to be upset.
It's okay.
Enjoy your meal.
[phone chiming]
Hello, Güneş?
Yes, Şeyda. What's up?
I'm good. How about you?
I'm good, thanks. I called you about…
You know that photographer who filmed us?
I decided to drop it.
I don't have the energy to fight anyone.
[scoffs, sighs]
Honestly, Güneş,
I don't even know how to say this.
-What happened?
-You know Umay. The one we talked about?
Do you know who she came in with today?
Who? With Deniz?
Yes. You… Never mind.
They're here, inside, right now.
But we just saw your photo
with him online.
Güneş, I told you that I have seen
a lot of things.
But now, even I don't know
what's going on, honey.
Thanks, Şeyda. Take care.
[sighs deeply]
For Beren
[sighs]
-[Güneş] Why are you still here?
-Huh?
What's wrong?
Something's happened. What is it?
That fool has sent me flowers.
Can you believe it?
-Who?
-It's that idiot Ozan.
Jerk.
-[Beren] Exactly.
-[gasps]
The moron didn't leave my side
at the wedding, flirting all the way.
[Güneş] Why didn't you tell us?
How could I?
You had other things going on.
And look at my agenda.
My married ex trying to hit on me.
Not fun at all.
We really neglected you recently.
We were so caught up in our problems.
Oh, no, sweetie.
It's not about you at all. Uh-uh.
I mean… [sighs]
At the wedding…
I realized…
I'm really alone.
It's true.
I'm so tired of being the woman
who handles everything on her own.
It's not because I'm weak
or that I can't do it.
But… Sometimes,
I just don't want to deal with it.
Pfft.
Forget about it. Never mind.
Pfft. [clicks tongue]
No, please tell me. I already feel bad.
[inhales]
I come home,
and the hallway lightbulb is out.
It's been out for months.
I don't replace it. Not because I can't.
Maybe I want someone to be there
when I get home…
To take care of small chores like that
for me.
Every night, I open the door, walk inside,
and reach for the switch,
hoping that maybe, just maybe,
it will work.
I just want someone to care about me,
to do something for me.
You're right.
So right.
-[huffs]
-But it'll happen.
Believe me, it will.
Not because you can't do it…
But because someone, somewhere,
is waiting for the day he'll meet you.
So one day he can be there for you.
In the meantime,
I'll come and replace the bulb tonight.
[chuckles]
That's sweet, but it's not the same, love.
I know.
[Beren] All right, never mind.
I think you should go straight to Deniz.
[sighs]
Don't lose whatever it is between you two.
You think he'll always be there waiting.
But this is Deniz.
One day, he will have enough and go.
And you'll be left
with just memories of him.
You're right.
I already live with reminders.
I need to go.
Not sure if you understood me correctly.
Where do you need to go?
Güneş?
Mom is already calculating
the time difference between here
and the US. I figured I'd stop by
so goodbyes can start early.
What's wrong?
Ayça.
Would you like me to come with you?
Only until you settle in.
Are you serious?
Absolutely.
I… I want to get out of this house.
I can't handle these memories
of Deniz anymore.
I can't do it.
Sis.
[sighs]
I need to be with you,
by your side, right now.
Otherwise, I'll end up stuck here,
writing about what happened
six months ago.
Nothing will change.
I'm sorry things didn't work out
with Deniz.
Me too.
Don't be.
Listen, do whatever makes you happy, okay?
Just do what it takes.
Look at you, comforting your big sister.
-Come here.
-[chuckles]
-[kisses]
-Oh.
My dear.
[sniffles]
[sniffles]
You're not doing this
just to keep me company in the US, right?
[chuckles] No way.
[sniffles] Don't waste time
worrying about me. You're starting fresh.
You start thinking about
how you will survive
in a 35-square-meter apartment with me.
Don't be silly. It's my dream.
Love you.
-Oh, Sis.
-Hmm?
Will you cook me meals
like the recipes in your magazine?
-Me? Cook?
-Hmm.
I'm sure.
I'll try. [chuckles]
I'll grab a coffee
while you continue packing up.
Oh, yeah, only my mirror gets knocked off.
Was that your bike?
[Beren] Huh?
Someone hit it
and knocked off your mirror.
Oh, um…
Did you fix it?
Oh, yes.
-Thank you.
-You're welcome.
It's nothing.
I just tightened a few screws.
Just to be clear, I didn't hit it.
Oh. [chuckles] No, it's not… Um…
That's not what I meant.
It's been a while
since someone did something for me.
I'm surprised, that's all.
I'm Semih.
Oh, sorry. [chuckles]
Beren.
If I had really done it,
it would be like in the movies.
[chuckles]
Look, this is nice with flowers and all.
And this looks like Toscana.
It's lovely.
We could do something small here. Huh?
What's wrong?
Do you really want a wedding like this
for two people who don't love each other?
Deniz. Can't you understand?
Why would I have your child
if I didn't love you?
[sighs]
I need some fresh air.
Go, get some fresh air.
Don't think, don't listen, don't talk.
Just avoid me, Deniz.
[Şeyda] You wanted to see me?
So, you found the photographer?
Mm-hmm.
I need that guy.
Hmm. What do you want with him?
Hmm?
You're not even Mr. Alpha.
Yet you made me believe you were.
[sighs heavily]
Umay.
Boran, don't mess all this up.
You're the one who messed up, Umay.
I see your plan is working perfectly.
-Huh?
-Boran, please leave.
-We'll talk later.
-No, we talk now.
We're talking now. You speak the truth.
Did you trick me too?
Everything is going your way.
How is that possible?
Maybe you tricked that photographer too?
Stop it. Shut up.
What's going on? What's he saying?
The truth. I'm telling the truth.
If I go down, you go down, too, Umay.
If not today,
your secret will come out in a few months.
Unless you planned that too.
After all, there is no baby.
Hmm?
But you'll cover that up too.
Won't you, Umay?
Why did you do this?
You did.
You did this.
I asked you.
I asked if you loved that girl, Deniz.
You said you didn't want
to talk about your past love affairs.
Why did you lie to me, Umay?
You turned this into a game,
a competition.
You ran after her to Cappadocia, Deniz.
-When did he go?
-Do you even wonder how it felt?
Did you?
You're supposed to be a reliable guy.
I trusted you and ended up
losing my self-respect because of you.
I never lied to you.
I told you everything.
Even when you tricked Güneş in Cappadocia,
I still trusted you.
What are you saying?
What is it between you and Güneş?
-I don't get it.
-Shut up, will you?
Oh?
[Umay] Listen to me.
Güneş was going to live my life with you.
And I was supposed to follow it
all from her posts?
Seriously?
Enough, Umay.
-Enough.
-[Umay] Enough?
What's so special about her?
What does she have that I don't?
[Boran scoffs] And they tell me,
I want to be Mr. Alpha.
Actually, she wants to be Güneş.
Shut up, man!
Shut up, stop it! We're talking here!
Deniz, please. Wait up. Deniz, please.
I'll shut up.
[Umay] Deniz.
Please.
[Güneş] Memories are patient.
Every memory waits to resurface,
sometimes through a scent,
a song, or just a fleeting moment.
[exhales]
Just as our minds replace
memories of joyful moments
with those we resent,
they seem to overwhelm us
with a longing for the ones we miss.
for a happy future
["Geçmiyor Zaman" playing]
But, sadly…
What I remembered until recently,
what once felt good, now only hurts.
Perhaps because I've lost
those memories forever.
Or because I didn't fully appreciate them
at that moment.
Or maybe it's because I now see
how long ago it all was.
All I know is that remembering now
is painful.
I realize I can't live in a house
filled with such vivid memories.
Everywhere I look, everything I touch,
every scent, every word
casts the shadow of my past onto today.
I realized that life
presents us with crossroads.
We can either stay and battle with
memories or leave to create new ones.
As always, I chose the hard way.
I am leaving the old me
wrapped in memories in this house…
Soon, I'll walk out the door
to meet another version of myself.
I'm grateful for all that I remember.
May we embrace new possibilities
and create new memories together.
But regardless of what happens,
always remember love.
[music continues]
Hello, Hakan. I can't reach Güneş.
I'm heading to the office.
Can you call Özgen?
Can Güneş check her phone?
[Hakan] Özgen called too.
She didn't pick up.
Deniz.
Güneş is going to the US with her sister.
-Özgen said--
-What?
Hello?
Hakan?
Perfect timing?
[Güneş] I'm late. I'm late again.
I'm going to miss my flight.
Is my bag in there?
Deniz, can't you hear me?
I'm telling you I'm running late.
-[Deniz] Oh, that's a surprise.
-[Güneş] Can you call me a taxi?
I can't right now.
[sighs]
I will take you to the airport today.
-Not happening.
-Seriously?
-Uh-huh.
-[kisses]
Think it over and let me know.
-[chuckles]
-I'll be waiting for you down here.
[kisses] Okay?
-[Güneş] Fine.
-Hmm.
[Güneş] We'll take the motorbike again.
Yes, the motorbike it is.
[music fades, ends]
[Güneş] Please keep this
from Mom and Dad for now.
I want to tell them myself.
[Ayça] Okay.
I don't think they saw the photo anyway.
Or maybe they think I didn't see it.
They're not bringing it up.
All right.
Don't tell them I'm coming
to the US with you either.
Let them hear it from me.
The stuff is being collected now.
I'll call once I'm on the way.
Okay, okay.
Don't worry, Sis. Love you.
Love you too.
New Message - Özgen
Answer your phone, girl.
New Message - Organizer Şeyda
The wedding is canceled!
Umay faked her pregnancy!
-[huffs]
-There's a box here, ma'am.
Is that going too?
[Güneş] I'll take care of it.
[inhales]
[breathing heavily, sniffling]
For Güneş
[sobs]
[sobbing]
[sniffles]
[sobs]
[ship horn blows]
[Deniz] Jump. Hop on. I'll get you.
You're brave. You didn't hesitate.
[Güneş] You can't say you've lived
unless you take risks
and believe in destiny and luck.
[Deniz] Both stunning and articulate.
Behaves like an alpha male
and has a flair for fashion.
Uh-oh. Is it the jacket?
Your sweater. Lilac. It's a color I like.
[Güneş] Oh, no! I'm late. Darn.
I can't believe I missed it.
[Deniz] Are you disappointed
that you missed the ferry or me?
Which one? Be honest.
[Güneş] All right. But you first.
How long have you been standing here,
watching people get on and off the ferries
to meet me?
I just got here.
It took a while to find
a lilac-colored helmet.
[Deniz] I'm in the study. Over.
[Güneş] In the bedroom. Over.
I miss you very much. How are you?
-Still sleeping. Over.
-Copy that.
[Güneş] She knows her name already.
See how she stares at us?
Please, let's keep her.
[Deniz] I can't believe it!
I really can't.
Visiting a fortune teller
on our first date
is something that never occurred to me.
[Güneş] She's a psychic,
not a fortune teller.
[Deniz] What exactly did she say?
I'm really curious.
[Güneş] We embark on a long journey.
One that will change our lives.
[Deniz] Do you really believe
those psychics and fortune tellers?
[Güneş] I believe in us.
[Deniz] Every time I board the ferry
from the pier outside my house,
I dream of going back to the day we met.
I want to be in every one
of these photos with you.
-[sobbing]
-I remember it all.
And like you said,
I believe in us.
At every sunset, where the sun
and the sea reunite at 18:20,
I will be waiting for you on our ferry.
Because I, too,
long to be reunited with you, Güneş.
TAXI
HIRED
[horn honking]
Pick up, Deniz.
Pick up.
Come on, pick up!
[ship horn blows]
Deniz!
Deniz!
Damn it. Damn it, I missed it.
The ferry or me. Which one hurts more?
Be honest.
Why weren't you answering my calls?
Why didn't you pick up?
Why didn't you open that box
all this time?
What if I never opened it?
I would have made the flight just in time.
reminder.
reminder.
[Güneş] I can't believe
you postponed your honeymoon
to catch up on the gossip, Özgen.
I would cancel everything for this, okay?
What happened at the wedding, girl?
What was going on up there
while we rollicked downstairs?
Why am I reading about it on social media?
Shame on you.
I told you, Beren.
I told you to keep your mouth shut.
I had to tell someone. You know me.
Those photos of you kissing Deniz…
Is that all? Because I only have two.
Gosh. It seems I had a legendary wedding,
and I had no idea.
-So, tell me.
-Özgen, enough.
-Stop it.
-No, keep going.
We want to hear the naked truth.
-You will tell all. [laughs]
-[Özgen] Yes, yes. Let's talk.
We were arguing,
and you two made us reconcile.
Okay. Then we had the engagement ceremony.
Then there was dancing and all that. And?
Then…
I went to get your speech from the room.
Deniz was there too.
Hakan didn't write his speech,
did he? Hmm?
He sent Deniz to copy my speech.
-I know him inside out. I really do.
-[shushing]
Actually, Deniz and I argued upstairs.
Right when the argument
was heating up, I--
-The whole place caught fire. [laughs]
-Stop shouting, girl.
Stop shouting, girl.
That got them looking. [chuckles]
Yes.
-Yes to what?
-Keep going.
Don't stop. You're live on air.
Oh, your event planner…
Was her name Ceyda?
-[chuckles] Ceyda? That name stuck.
-[Özgen] Şeyma.
Um, she said we would find
the photographer and sue him.
Oh! Do we know who he is?
They're going to find out. We'll talk.
Um… How do you feel about the photos?
I don't know what to feel.
I panicked a little at first
because the photo…
is more than your everyday leaked pic.
But then I thought
this is my most candid photo with Deniz,
who has never wanted to show his face.
Oh, I could just eat you up!
Girl, the fire is already alight!
Look at you and your rosy cheeks.
-Oh, come on. Stop it. [giggles]
-[giggles] I can see it, love.
You're head over heels.
-All right, enough.
-How did Deniz react?
That's what I want to know.
I don't know.
We didn't get to talk about it.
What?
-Oh!
-Honestly, we didn't talk.
You know what?
I think he must be relieved now.
Think about it.
There's nothing left to hide.
[Özgen] Right.
Wait a minute, wait a minute,
wait a minute, wait a minute.
The speech Hakan wrote at the wedding,
the one that made me cry…
Could that be the speech Deniz wrote
for you after he kissed you?
Could they be the same?
The guy spoke from his heart.
It was sincere.
-[Beren] Yeah.
-[groans]
Besides, Deniz didn't have time
to write something like that.
It's impossible.
Oh, really?
What was Deniz so busy with?
Questions, questions.
This is like an interrogation.
Sit down and sip your coffee,
or get lost already.
What… What exactly was he so busy with,
for example?
Okay, she has an excuse
for being late for work.
-Why are you late?
-Oh, darn.
I got fined
because my scooter's mirror was broken.
-How did that happen?
-[Beren] I have no idea.
Someone probably hit it in the car park
at my apartment.
Anyway…
So, you guys…
Are you officially back together now?
I don't know.
Since the wedding, I have been helping
Ayça prepare for her move to America.
We still have things to do.
-Hmm.
-He's working on the London job.
I guess we're taking things slow
this time.
THE REAL MR. ALPHA!
Deniz Derenoğlu
Architect
THE REAL MR. ALPHA!
[sighs]
[phone rings]
Hello?
All right, put him through.
Yes, Mr. Rauf?
Okay, I'm coming over now.
[sighs]
[knocks on door]
-Mr. Rauf.
-Oh. Come in, Deniz. Come.
[Deniz sighs]
How are you?
I'm curious.
You wouldn't call unless it were urgent.
You probably noticed some tension
in the office.
A photo of you and Güneş was leaked.
That's correct.
Our rivals still haven't removed
Güneş's poster from the construction site,
like the one hanging outside.
Yes, I know.
I drive by it every day. [clears throat]
[sighs] The client just called me.
To ask if it's really you in the ad
with Güneş.
They see this
as a prestige project, you know?
So, what's your verdict, Mr. Rauf?
I haven't reached one yet.
You're my key player.
We take this decision together.
I think you should avoid
dealing with clients directly.
Why don't you take charge
of the London project?
What do you think?
I mean…
Are you asking me to move to London
and be more hands-on with the business?
[Rauf] The guys in London have wanted
you there from the beginning.
We'll make it worth your while.
Just make your mind up.
All right. Um, I'll think about it.
[Rauf] You wrap up the London project.
Once things settle,
we can discuss the terms again, okay?
[breathes deeply]
Excuse me.
[Pervin]
So, you're not leaving immediately.
I've fallen in love
with İstanbul again, Pervin.
But in a different way.
[parrot] Love, love.
[chuckles]
Smarty-pants.
Hmm.
Besides, you might need
a lawyer you can trust around here.
Is this about Rauf?
[clicks tongue] The guy is a playboy.
It's nothing to do with me, Mahir.
Oh, just stop reminding me of him.
[clicks tongue]
-Anyway, fine.
-[sighs]
About the wedding.
Did you see how Boran showed off
as he pretended to be Mr. Alpha?
-[laughs]
-[chuckles]
Oh… He's launching a new men's magazine.
-Hmm?
-Hmm.
[scoffs] What does that rookie know
about publishing?
He said he's naming the magazine
Mr. Alpha.
[scoffs]
He's relying on his media mogul father.
Hmm. But…
think again.
Who else could he be relying on?
Who?
My rose.
You said, "My dear editor Güneş
is still together with Boran." Right?
-Yes.
-You did.
I like Ms. Güneş.
She's a good person, quiet and gentle.
But she's not all that reliable, right?
What's this?
When was this taken?
It's new.
[gasps, sighs]
Mr. Alpha turned out to be Mr. Derenoğlu!
Mr. Alpha turned out to be a Greek statue!
Broad shoulders!
[chuckles]
He's the man from the ferry tale!
Now it makes sense.
If he told me to jump, I would!
[scoffs]
Güneş, a friend is asking -
where is the rest of this love story?
Are you early too?
[kisses]
[kisses]
Yes, I left early today.
I'm a little hungry.
[Deniz] Let's order something right away.
The wedding planner has found the guy
who took our photos.
We can sue him if we want to.
Do you want to talk to her?
No need. It doesn't matter anymore.
Really? It doesn't matter?
Then why are you upset?
[chuckles] You may have gotten rid
of Mr. Alpha forever.
Doesn't that make you happy?
How are you?
I couldn't call from the office today.
There were some issues.
Is this what's bothering you?
Deniz, what's wrong?
As I said. Problems at the office.
My mind's on that. [sniffles]
[Umay] Sorry,
but I also saw your photo, Deniz.
Do whatever you want with Güneş,
but you can't just drag me to London
like a suitcase.
What is on your mind,
and why are you asking me?
I can't leave my job because of our plans
for the future.
So, I'm the one to blame
for your job commitments.
Do whatever you want.
There is no plan involving both of us,
and I don't expect anything from you.
Umay, I thought we were trying
to agree as two adults
and find a way forward for the baby.
Is this your plan?
Hmm.
Are you asking me
to leave everything behind
and live with you in London for a year?
I'm asking.
You could do photography, maybe.
Or take some time out for yourself.
[sighs]
Fine. All right.
On one condition though.
Seeing as the baby will be born in London,
we will get married,
even if it's just on paper, Deniz.
[Güneş]
You don't have anything to tell me?
I need to go to London.
[Güneş] Go.
It's just for two days.
What's the matter? Lon…
Are you sad because we'll be apart
for two days?
Really?
[chuckles] It's always extremes with you.
This time, it will be longer.
I need to be there for about a year
to oversee the project.
One year? This is a surprise.
When did you find out?
[clicks tongue] Um,
when the photo was leaked.
The client asked my boss if it was me.
Of course.
It's the same issue again.
Okay, I get it.
But nothing is certain yet.
I might quit my job.
It's an option.
I see. It's big enough
to affect your career
if it's bothering you so much.
If I quit…
I won't get my cut,
and I won't have any clients left.
Regardless, I'll find a way.
I'll figure it out.
-Us?
-Huh?
What about us? Is this it?
How?
Why are you looking at me like that?
Like it's my fault again.
[breathes heavily, huffs]
I never said that, Güneş.
[Güneş] I can see it in you, Deniz.
I know you. I can see it in your eyes.
Back then,
you told me work was irrelevant.
You even accused me
of being careless, remember?
How does it feel now
that it's about your work?
Do you get it, Deniz?
[clicks tongue, sighs]
Güneş, please don't.
[Güneş] Do you realize what happened?
Mr. Alpha is over.
He's exposed.
Everyone knows, and no one cares now.
The hype is gone.
It will fade away.
People might lose interest in my articles.
It's not much different for me either.
It's not the same, but it's close.
I could lose my job too.
But on the way here,
I thought about it, Deniz…
Does it even matter?
Does it?
We can finally be together.
-Does it matter?
-Yes, true. You're right.
Um…
I'll find a way.
Don't worry about it, okay?
Do you really want to be together, Deniz?
Sure, we seem to have
rekindled something, but…
I can see we won't be the same.
[Deniz] I'll fix this, Güneş.
Just give me some time, and trust me.
I've got this.
You were right when we broke up.
It's hard to trust again.
I see the same look in your eyes, Deniz.
Güneş, where are you going?
-Güneş, wait.
-We'll talk later.
-Güneş?
-Later!
[person on TV] Leyla. Wait, wait.
-Leyla, Leyla, stop. Don't go, wait, wait.
-[sobbing]
-Leyla.
-[sobbing continues]
[Deniz] Why are you upset?
-I asked you what was wrong. Tell me.
-[sniffles, sobs]
[Güneş] They broke up this time.
Leyla, stop.
-Leyla!
-So what? They'll make up soon.
I said they broke up, Deniz.
What if they don't make up?
I can't believe you.
It's just a movie, it's fiction.
Life isn't like this at all.
I swear it's not.
Don't get upset over it.
[Güneş] What do you mean
life is different?
Breakups are real.
And I'm not crying over this.
Then why?
[sobs, sniffles]
It just hit me. [breathes shakily] What…
What if one day we break up too?
But why are you
even thinking of breaking up?
Oh, enough already, girl! Ugh!
The guy's out of breath chasing you!
How long does he have to chase you, huh?
-I'm sweating here. [sobs] Ooh!
-All right, all right. Come to me.
Come here.
[kisses]
Listen, I would chase after you
and convince you.
We would make up, okay?
-Would we?
-Yes.
-Would you win me back?
-Of course. It's just a movie.
Stop thinking about it.
But breakups are real. Look.
What if they don't make up?
Yes, people break up, but this is a movie.
I would find a way to win you back.
I think you got carried away here.
-Look at your eyes. Please stop it.
-Promise?
[kisses] Promise.
Don't stress over a movie.
It's dumb. Stop watching it
and come closer.
-It hurts here. Kiss me here too.
-Where does it hurt?
-Here.
-[chuckles]
Oh. [kisses] It hurts here too?
-Uh-huh.
-Does it hurt anywhere else?
[Güneş] Mmm.
Look, he's still chasing after you.
-Enough, girl!
-Seriously, enough.
Listen, I'll switch it off altogether.
Stay here with me.
Come here.
[Pervin] Güneş, dear.
You're not scheming behind my back, right?
I don't even know what you mean, Pervin.
Boran is preparing to release a magazine
named Mr. Alpha.
Mr. Alpha?
[Pervin] Mm-hmm. You didn't know?
You called me. You said
you were moving forward with Boran.
Pervin, I really had no idea about this.
I asked you to stick
with the "Boran is Mr. Alpha" story
for your readers,
not start a magazine with him.
Why would I do that?
I'm telling you, I don't know about it.
And Boran isn't even in my life anymore.
I don't know what to believe anymore.
I mean… I saw those photos
of you and Deniz too.
Honey, now you have to win over
the readers and me once again.
-What do you mean?
-What will you write about, for instance?
What's your next story?
Will you go on about Deniz?
Deniz and I…
Let's not start again, please.
Write about your affair with Deniz.
Tell them how you were spied on,
how the photos were taken.
Capitalize on it while it's trending.
Don't waste time.
How can you be sure this photographer
was the one in the room?
I saw him at the wedding.
He wasn't one of my guys. I warned him.
It's on the cameras too.
Take a look.
He was waiting on the balcony
right across from your room.
Did… Did you watch us with these cameras?
-[sighs heavily]
-Yes.
But don't worry,
the cameras are only in the halls.
[scoffs]
Don't be embarrassed, Ms. Güneş.
I've seen all sorts of things at weddings.
[chuckles]
Ah. There.
This guy filmed you
and sold your photos. See.
Can you fast-forward our footage?
The thing is,
someone came into our room by mistake.
Hmm. Sure, let's see.
Yes.
-You… You can skip this part.
-Okay, sure. I'll do that.
Who's that? Do you know her?
[gasps]
[giggles] Look,
she walks into the wrong room and panics.
See how she flees?
Is that Umay?
How do you know her?
Um…
I met with her recently for her wedding.
She wants a long veil
that flows down the stairs.
Umay is getting married?
Yes. Everyone's getting married.
It's wedding season.
We haven't even discussed the marriage,
and here you are planning a wedding?
Umay, what is all this?
Are you playing games with me?
You said it was just a formality.
I haven't even agreed to that yet.
I think
you're getting ahead of yourself here.
[chuckles]
You're the one asking me
to change my whole life, Deniz.
I have my pride too.
-[sighs]
-At least give me this.
I agreed to all of your terms.
You have to be reasonable here.
There won't be a wedding, Umay.
Fine, Deniz.
It doesn't have to be a huge blowout.
But let's at least talk to the planner
and tell her what we want.
You owe me that much.
When you decided to drag me to London…
When you asked me to change my life,
I didn't behave like this.
I didn't make a scene.
Did I?
[romantic piano music playing]
To what do I owe this honor, Ms. Güneş?
I wanted to take you out for lunch
as a thank you.
-Why are you so surprised?
-[scoffs] Really?
After seeing that wedding photo,
I honestly thought
you'd never call me again.
[Güneş] Hmm.
I can explain that to you.
I don't want you to be upset.
-Not be upset?
-Don't be.
You always thought of me.
Now I'm thinking of you.
Now it's my turn.
I mean, what would I do without you,
all on my own, right?
[Boran clicks tongue] No, no, no.
[stammers] Come on, don't exaggerate.
I didn't do anything.
-Really.
-Of course you did.
What more could you do?
You did everything for me.
You even hired a photographer.
The wedding planner
found your photographer.
I also heard about the magazine. Thanks.
I guess you were thinking of me again.
[clears throat] Yes.
No one ever believed in me, you know?
I've had this idea
since the first time I saw you.
Like I said, I'm an investor, Güneş.
Oh, you invested in me?
It's because I love you.
Don't think otherwise.
[sighs]
Who didn't believe in you?
Your father?
Is he still scolding you at this age?
Is that why you're like this, Boran?
[sighs deeply]
Where's this coming from?
You're normally a thoughtful,
kind, and good man.
Something about you feels comforting.
But I'm not your Mr. Alpha, right?
That's exactly what you don't get.
You don't have to be Mr. Alpha.
It's time you go be yourself
with someone else.
All right.
What will you write about
without Mr. Alpha?
-What's your plan?
-[chuckles]
Deniz's face is out there now.
Everyone saw him.
Now what? The mystery factor is gone.
What now?
I was going to explain that to you,
but I guess you were too busy
scheming and manipulating me to notice.
But I figured it out.
I'm still deeply in love with Deniz.
But it's fine.
Don't worry. I don't want you to be upset.
It's okay.
Enjoy your meal.
[phone chiming]
Hello, Güneş?
Yes, Şeyda. What's up?
I'm good. How about you?
I'm good, thanks. I called you about…
You know that photographer who filmed us?
I decided to drop it.
I don't have the energy to fight anyone.
[scoffs, sighs]
Honestly, Güneş,
I don't even know how to say this.
-What happened?
-You know Umay. The one we talked about?
Do you know who she came in with today?
Who? With Deniz?
Yes. You… Never mind.
They're here, inside, right now.
But we just saw your photo
with him online.
Güneş, I told you that I have seen
a lot of things.
But now, even I don't know
what's going on, honey.
Thanks, Şeyda. Take care.
[sighs deeply]
For Beren
[sighs]
-[Güneş] Why are you still here?
-Huh?
What's wrong?
Something's happened. What is it?
That fool has sent me flowers.
Can you believe it?
-Who?
-It's that idiot Ozan.
Jerk.
-[Beren] Exactly.
-[gasps]
The moron didn't leave my side
at the wedding, flirting all the way.
[Güneş] Why didn't you tell us?
How could I?
You had other things going on.
And look at my agenda.
My married ex trying to hit on me.
Not fun at all.
We really neglected you recently.
We were so caught up in our problems.
Oh, no, sweetie.
It's not about you at all. Uh-uh.
I mean… [sighs]
At the wedding…
I realized…
I'm really alone.
It's true.
I'm so tired of being the woman
who handles everything on her own.
It's not because I'm weak
or that I can't do it.
But… Sometimes,
I just don't want to deal with it.
Pfft.
Forget about it. Never mind.
Pfft. [clicks tongue]
No, please tell me. I already feel bad.
[inhales]
I come home,
and the hallway lightbulb is out.
It's been out for months.
I don't replace it. Not because I can't.
Maybe I want someone to be there
when I get home…
To take care of small chores like that
for me.
Every night, I open the door, walk inside,
and reach for the switch,
hoping that maybe, just maybe,
it will work.
I just want someone to care about me,
to do something for me.
You're right.
So right.
-[huffs]
-But it'll happen.
Believe me, it will.
Not because you can't do it…
But because someone, somewhere,
is waiting for the day he'll meet you.
So one day he can be there for you.
In the meantime,
I'll come and replace the bulb tonight.
[chuckles]
That's sweet, but it's not the same, love.
I know.
[Beren] All right, never mind.
I think you should go straight to Deniz.
[sighs]
Don't lose whatever it is between you two.
You think he'll always be there waiting.
But this is Deniz.
One day, he will have enough and go.
And you'll be left
with just memories of him.
You're right.
I already live with reminders.
I need to go.
Not sure if you understood me correctly.
Where do you need to go?
Güneş?
Mom is already calculating
the time difference between here
and the US. I figured I'd stop by
so goodbyes can start early.
What's wrong?
Ayça.
Would you like me to come with you?
Only until you settle in.
Are you serious?
Absolutely.
I… I want to get out of this house.
I can't handle these memories
of Deniz anymore.
I can't do it.
Sis.
[sighs]
I need to be with you,
by your side, right now.
Otherwise, I'll end up stuck here,
writing about what happened
six months ago.
Nothing will change.
I'm sorry things didn't work out
with Deniz.
Me too.
Don't be.
Listen, do whatever makes you happy, okay?
Just do what it takes.
Look at you, comforting your big sister.
-Come here.
-[chuckles]
-[kisses]
-Oh.
My dear.
[sniffles]
[sniffles]
You're not doing this
just to keep me company in the US, right?
[chuckles] No way.
[sniffles] Don't waste time
worrying about me. You're starting fresh.
You start thinking about
how you will survive
in a 35-square-meter apartment with me.
Don't be silly. It's my dream.
Love you.
-Oh, Sis.
-Hmm?
Will you cook me meals
like the recipes in your magazine?
-Me? Cook?
-Hmm.
I'm sure.
I'll try. [chuckles]
I'll grab a coffee
while you continue packing up.
Oh, yeah, only my mirror gets knocked off.
Was that your bike?
[Beren] Huh?
Someone hit it
and knocked off your mirror.
Oh, um…
Did you fix it?
Oh, yes.
-Thank you.
-You're welcome.
It's nothing.
I just tightened a few screws.
Just to be clear, I didn't hit it.
Oh. [chuckles] No, it's not… Um…
That's not what I meant.
It's been a while
since someone did something for me.
I'm surprised, that's all.
I'm Semih.
Oh, sorry. [chuckles]
Beren.
If I had really done it,
it would be like in the movies.
[chuckles]
Look, this is nice with flowers and all.
And this looks like Toscana.
It's lovely.
We could do something small here. Huh?
What's wrong?
Do you really want a wedding like this
for two people who don't love each other?
Deniz. Can't you understand?
Why would I have your child
if I didn't love you?
[sighs]
I need some fresh air.
Go, get some fresh air.
Don't think, don't listen, don't talk.
Just avoid me, Deniz.
[Şeyda] You wanted to see me?
So, you found the photographer?
Mm-hmm.
I need that guy.
Hmm. What do you want with him?
Hmm?
You're not even Mr. Alpha.
Yet you made me believe you were.
[sighs heavily]
Umay.
Boran, don't mess all this up.
You're the one who messed up, Umay.
I see your plan is working perfectly.
-Huh?
-Boran, please leave.
-We'll talk later.
-No, we talk now.
We're talking now. You speak the truth.
Did you trick me too?
Everything is going your way.
How is that possible?
Maybe you tricked that photographer too?
Stop it. Shut up.
What's going on? What's he saying?
The truth. I'm telling the truth.
If I go down, you go down, too, Umay.
If not today,
your secret will come out in a few months.
Unless you planned that too.
After all, there is no baby.
Hmm?
But you'll cover that up too.
Won't you, Umay?
Why did you do this?
You did.
You did this.
I asked you.
I asked if you loved that girl, Deniz.
You said you didn't want
to talk about your past love affairs.
Why did you lie to me, Umay?
You turned this into a game,
a competition.
You ran after her to Cappadocia, Deniz.
-When did he go?
-Do you even wonder how it felt?
Did you?
You're supposed to be a reliable guy.
I trusted you and ended up
losing my self-respect because of you.
I never lied to you.
I told you everything.
Even when you tricked Güneş in Cappadocia,
I still trusted you.
What are you saying?
What is it between you and Güneş?
-I don't get it.
-Shut up, will you?
Oh?
[Umay] Listen to me.
Güneş was going to live my life with you.
And I was supposed to follow it
all from her posts?
Seriously?
Enough, Umay.
-Enough.
-[Umay] Enough?
What's so special about her?
What does she have that I don't?
[Boran scoffs] And they tell me,
I want to be Mr. Alpha.
Actually, she wants to be Güneş.
Shut up, man!
Shut up, stop it! We're talking here!
Deniz, please. Wait up. Deniz, please.
I'll shut up.
[Umay] Deniz.
Please.
[Güneş] Memories are patient.
Every memory waits to resurface,
sometimes through a scent,
a song, or just a fleeting moment.
[exhales]
Just as our minds replace
memories of joyful moments
with those we resent,
they seem to overwhelm us
with a longing for the ones we miss.
for a happy future
["Geçmiyor Zaman" playing]
But, sadly…
What I remembered until recently,
what once felt good, now only hurts.
Perhaps because I've lost
those memories forever.
Or because I didn't fully appreciate them
at that moment.
Or maybe it's because I now see
how long ago it all was.
All I know is that remembering now
is painful.
I realize I can't live in a house
filled with such vivid memories.
Everywhere I look, everything I touch,
every scent, every word
casts the shadow of my past onto today.
I realized that life
presents us with crossroads.
We can either stay and battle with
memories or leave to create new ones.
As always, I chose the hard way.
I am leaving the old me
wrapped in memories in this house…
Soon, I'll walk out the door
to meet another version of myself.
I'm grateful for all that I remember.
May we embrace new possibilities
and create new memories together.
But regardless of what happens,
always remember love.
[music continues]
Hello, Hakan. I can't reach Güneş.
I'm heading to the office.
Can you call Özgen?
Can Güneş check her phone?
[Hakan] Özgen called too.
She didn't pick up.
Deniz.
Güneş is going to the US with her sister.
-Özgen said--
-What?
Hello?
Hakan?
Perfect timing?
[Güneş] I'm late. I'm late again.
I'm going to miss my flight.
Is my bag in there?
Deniz, can't you hear me?
I'm telling you I'm running late.
-[Deniz] Oh, that's a surprise.
-[Güneş] Can you call me a taxi?
I can't right now.
[sighs]
I will take you to the airport today.
-Not happening.
-Seriously?
-Uh-huh.
-[kisses]
Think it over and let me know.
-[chuckles]
-I'll be waiting for you down here.
[kisses] Okay?
-[Güneş] Fine.
-Hmm.
[Güneş] We'll take the motorbike again.
Yes, the motorbike it is.
[music fades, ends]
[Güneş] Please keep this
from Mom and Dad for now.
I want to tell them myself.
[Ayça] Okay.
I don't think they saw the photo anyway.
Or maybe they think I didn't see it.
They're not bringing it up.
All right.
Don't tell them I'm coming
to the US with you either.
Let them hear it from me.
The stuff is being collected now.
I'll call once I'm on the way.
Okay, okay.
Don't worry, Sis. Love you.
Love you too.
New Message - Özgen
Answer your phone, girl.
New Message - Organizer Şeyda
The wedding is canceled!
Umay faked her pregnancy!
-[huffs]
-There's a box here, ma'am.
Is that going too?
[Güneş] I'll take care of it.
[inhales]
[breathing heavily, sniffling]
For Güneş
[sobs]
[sobbing]
[sniffles]
[sobs]
[ship horn blows]
[Deniz] Jump. Hop on. I'll get you.
You're brave. You didn't hesitate.
[Güneş] You can't say you've lived
unless you take risks
and believe in destiny and luck.
[Deniz] Both stunning and articulate.
Behaves like an alpha male
and has a flair for fashion.
Uh-oh. Is it the jacket?
Your sweater. Lilac. It's a color I like.
[Güneş] Oh, no! I'm late. Darn.
I can't believe I missed it.
[Deniz] Are you disappointed
that you missed the ferry or me?
Which one? Be honest.
[Güneş] All right. But you first.
How long have you been standing here,
watching people get on and off the ferries
to meet me?
I just got here.
It took a while to find
a lilac-colored helmet.
[Deniz] I'm in the study. Over.
[Güneş] In the bedroom. Over.
I miss you very much. How are you?
-Still sleeping. Over.
-Copy that.
[Güneş] She knows her name already.
See how she stares at us?
Please, let's keep her.
[Deniz] I can't believe it!
I really can't.
Visiting a fortune teller
on our first date
is something that never occurred to me.
[Güneş] She's a psychic,
not a fortune teller.
[Deniz] What exactly did she say?
I'm really curious.
[Güneş] We embark on a long journey.
One that will change our lives.
[Deniz] Do you really believe
those psychics and fortune tellers?
[Güneş] I believe in us.
[Deniz] Every time I board the ferry
from the pier outside my house,
I dream of going back to the day we met.
I want to be in every one
of these photos with you.
-[sobbing]
-I remember it all.
And like you said,
I believe in us.
At every sunset, where the sun
and the sea reunite at 18:20,
I will be waiting for you on our ferry.
Because I, too,
long to be reunited with you, Güneş.
TAXI
HIRED
[horn honking]
Pick up, Deniz.
Pick up.
Come on, pick up!
[ship horn blows]
Deniz!
Deniz!
Damn it. Damn it, I missed it.
The ferry or me. Which one hurts more?
Be honest.
Why weren't you answering my calls?
Why didn't you pick up?
Why didn't you open that box
all this time?
What if I never opened it?
I would have made the flight just in time.
