[theme song playing]
How are you, Leyla?
My name is Kanat.
From Gercek Private School.
I know.
I mean...
I already...
follow the social media accounts of the school. That's why.
Oh?
By the way, because of social media, no one actually meets anyone nowadays.
Hmm.
Uh-uh!
Kanat?
Hey, how are you?
Great! How are you?
By the way, sorry for coming all of a sudden like this.
But I just wanted to meet Leyla once.
And finally met her.
No no, it's fine that you came.
Will you take tea?
No. Thanks for asking.
Napkins were not found, so I have brought towels. But the charger...
Kanat, you?
What are you doing here?
We spoke about Leyla in school today, so I felt like coming here.
When you told me everything about Leyla...
I really wanted to meet her.
Leyla,
you are really strong.
No matter what happens in life, never give up.
See, we are all waiting for you to come to school.
So that you don't suddenly feel awkward at school, we are all with you.
Just don't ever give up.
If you give up...
You will regret it for the rest of your life.
Don't let it happen to you at all.
Did you understand?
Got it.
You are the best. That's amazing!
You can stay if you want to.
No, I will leave.
It is not good to interfere in girls' hangout time.
You guys enjoy it.
I will join some other party.
See you then, Leyla.
See you.
Hold this. I'll come back right away. Okay?
Thank you so much.
What just happened?
I don't understand it at all. Did you?
Why did you come here?
I told you inside.
Surprised me again.
I like to surprise you.
Why? Didn't you like it?
To be honest,
I don't even know why I came.
Just felt like coming, so I came straight away.
Maybe because...
I have fallen in love with you.
[cellphone ringing]
Hello?
Are you still with her?
Yes, but I'm leaving now.
Oh yeah?
So what happened there?
Did Ekim get impressed with your work or not? Or do you have to try harder?
Everything went exactly as planned.
Okay.
You come back and tell me everything in detail.
I am getting really bored.
Tell me something.
Is Ekim still there?
I will hang up now.
The battery is low, it will turn off.
Kanat, I asked you something. Tell me if she is there.
How dare he disconnect my call! How stupid is he?
Honey, is everything alright?
Do you have the same question every time to ask?
Calm down, Melisa.
I was just worried about you.
Okay, I'll call Serdar Uncle now and tell him that
Dad is worried about me and he asked me to call you.
Don't do this, don't make the call, please.
If I disconnect the call, will you stop pretending to be a good father?
Melisa?
I thought you were worried about Mom too, Dad.
We've talked about this, haven't we?
Some things never get better.
It just gets lost somewhere.
I'm trying my best.
Please forgive me if possible.
What's the point now?
You didn't do anything back then.
When it was most needed.
You were too small.
You didn't know anything.
You still don't know the whole thing.
Tell me what I didn't know.
And now what is it that I do not know?
How much I love you.
And how much I endure.
Have committed a crime because of you!
Hiding the accident of that poor girl.
Just to save you.
You will always keep reminding me, won't you?
Shall we watch something else this time?
Can't believe it.
He came here!
- What? - What?
Did you say something?
Sorry, you guys were saying something?
But you know what?
This Kanat is such a good boy, no?
He doesn't even know me and...
he came over to meet me!
And it is so difficult to find someone like that in today's era.
I am very lucky.
Yes, I too was completely shocked because his behaviour seems very rude in school.
Wait a minute.
Look at this, tell me how I look!
Tell me! Good, isn't it?
Tell me?
Good, isn't it?
You look really good.
Thank you so much! Now let me take a selfie!
I look so cute in this sweatshirt!
See that?
Didn't I tell you?
That one day I will be wearing the school sweatshirt and look, I have worn it today.
Come here and hug me.
Okay, okay.
Because your drama is never-ending,
I have chosen a drama film for tonight.
Please play a comedy, Ayse?
Because I don't feel like crying at all and
I don't want to cry really at all!
Please understand, guys.
No, Ekim, I am getting tickled.
Wait, I will show you now.
Okay, I am getting angry now, please don't do this.
Come on, man.
The rent of the house is skyrocketing.
I don't know how to find a good home.
Ekim?
Is that you?
Mom?
You didn't have a shift today?
Yes yes, but I came back early.
- You went to Leyla's, right? - Hmm-hmm.
Ayse was also with us.
You were all together after a long time.
Yes, after really long!
How is Leyla doing?
You won't believe it, but her mood was really good.
Oh, that's a great thing.
It felt like we got the old Leyla back.
And she is also feeling like
joining back school.
What are you saying!
That's a great news!
You know what?
Today Kanat had also come there to meet Leyla.
Oh really?
But why did he come there?
Just came to wish her.
I wasn't expecting it at all.
Okay, okay.
But do they know each other?
No no, they don't know each other.
Look...
This boy doesn't seem good. It would be better to stay away!
I am just explaining to you...
Okay, Mom.
Got it.
I know but...
You just trust me.
You can do that much, right?
Now I want to sleep, I'm going.
I also need to take a shower.
You also go to sleep.
Naughty girl.
Ekim?
Yes, Mom?
Don't go to sleep without drying your hair, okay?
I don't know how long he's been sitting there.
Feeling scared to go there too.
What happened?
Why are you so afraid of him?
Something is up.
Something happened to him for sure.
He is behaving very strange.
Kanat did not come to dinner, he did not even say anything about that.
- And yesterday also, he... - You mean...
He looked at me properly but did not hit me today.
Now I am also feeling anxious.
Don't know what's going on in his mind.
Perhaps he has realized that there is a thing called humanity!
Do you collect all this still?
I'm saving moments.
You only said...
Memories should always be kept with care.
Yes I said that. You are so adorable.
Sorry.
I have to go to bed now.
Okay, dear.
Good night.
You came to meet me today without telling me.
You looked into my eyes.
I couldn't do anything other than hug you but you told me...
You said,
"Leyla, you are not alone at all, I am with you."
Always...
I used to be afraid about...
finding a way to tell you that
I am Leyla whom you love you immensely and I love you too!
But now I'm not afraid of anything.
Because I love you even more now.
Now I will never be afraid of anyone.
Wait for me.
I'll meet you soon.
Very soon.
[dramatic music playing]
Kanat.
Kanat?
Sit down and talk to your father. We will talk like men.
I'm really tired.
Feeling sleepy, I'm going to sleep.
You don't even have five minutes for your father, son?
Come here.
Hey come on, son.
Kanat.
Sit here in front me.
Hmm.
Is the guitar so important to you?
Yes, it is very important.
Why?
Because grandpa gave it.
Okay, good night.
We can talk about this in the morning as well.
You love your grandpa very much, huh?
I didn't ask a difficult question. You can answer it, son.
Everyone loved him very much.
A kind-hearted man...
like my father...
There was no one like that and there can be no one.
Everyone loved him very much.
But he never loved me.
Tell me something.
Am I such a bad person?
Tell me honestly.
Hmm.
Ah.
Come on, tell me.
You do not need to be...
afraid of me.
Let's do something.
Come and hug your father.
- Leave it. - Let go of my hand.
Move!
He will help me.
- Let me take you to your room. - Get away!
I don't want to go anywhere.
The night is still young.
You haven't answered my question.
Come on, tell me now.
Am I...
such a bad person?
Think quickly and tell me.
Tell me.
I am a disgusting person, aren't I?
An alcoholic who beats up his wife and children.
This is what...
you think of me, right? Tell me.
Tell me! Tell me the truth!
- Please... - Take your hand off!
And stop saying, "please"!
Let it be.
I don't like this word at all.
Now tell me one thing quickly.
You guys are conspiring against me, aren't you?
You guys want to...
kill me, don't you?
You want me to die and then you'll get rid of me!
But no, you won't get rid of me!
Dad, you are not in your senses.
My dear son, you are worried about your father?
Don't think that I drank too much.
I'm not so stupid and you know this!
And that is...
your truth!
You can never become
a good person
like me! Ever!
I have worked hard to be this.
Son!
I have never left my enemies be!
Come on, come on.
[grunting]
Let me be!
Dad, please, Dad!
Dad, save me.
Dad, please help me.
You have to get out of the pool by yourself.
Come on, you can do this, Riza.
[coughing]
What kind of a Dad are you? He could have died right now.
I am not his dad.
Never say this again!
I don't like cowards!
If you don't have the strength to protect yourself,
no one will be able to save you.
You are not okay, Dad.
- I will take you to your room.. - Move.
I'll go by myself.
Look who is here.
Look at the car.
Isn't it too small?
I like her.
- Oh really? - Hmm.
She is innocent.
That one is definitely not!
Good morning, Ekim.
Hi madam, good morning. I wanted to meet you.
Did you find out anything about that petition?
No, I don't know anything of value yet.
But as soon as I find out something, I will tell you first.
Okay?
Okay, I will see you.
Listen, I have a surprise for you. Don't say anything, just walk along okay?
Bekir, I can't see anything. I will trip and fall! What are you doing?
I won't let that happen, I am with you.
If this is one of your bad pranks again...
I will not leave you be! Let me go, I am late.
You should see this first and then talk. Ta-da!
Ayse?
And we are together again!
We're not going to be apart anymore.
One minute, how did you persuade Uncle?
I will tell you later. Let's go inside.
Look at them being jolly!
It is like a boomerang. The more you throw out, the faster it comes back!
This school is such an opportunity for them that they will never get again.
I don't think that they will give up so easily.
Just watch.
Oh, welcome back to hell!
Look who is here!
That's a very good joke, right?
Oh, Ekim.
Don't feel bad about that.
He understood a joke for the first time in his life, it's not his fault.
You tell me.
Does Daghan know that you're back?
That poor guy always wanders around thinking of you.
Let's go.
I want to drink coffee. Do you want some?
No, I don't want. Anyway I need to talk to Selim about something.
- Okay, fine. - I will see you in class.
- Okay, see you. - Let's go, bye bye.
It's enough now, dude.
What does she think of herself?
Just acts as a heroine in front of us.
And look, Ekim straightened her up real good!
And Melisa could not do anything in front of her.
That's enough, just calm down.
You have been ranting since yesterday!
You know Melisa well, don't you?
And don't take it personally.
You saw what she did to Naz.
But I am not Naz.
I'm not going to endure anything.
No offense, Darling, but I won't silently take in insult like you!
- And you know that. - So what would you do?
Whatever you do, you will bear the brunt.
Look, I don't care about anything.
And yes, I don't even want to see her face.
I will go now.
Look over here.
Are you all right?
Because you know that you are talking to me, right?
Yes, I am talking to you.
Well, I don't want to go to class.
So why don't we bunk school?
Oh wow.
My beautiful fairy!
I will be ready to leave this country also, let alone just bunk school.
It would be good if you reduce that over-acting.
Do you understand?
Or do I have to explain more to you?
Okay okay, I get it.
Come on.
So what do you think, Sir?
You told Miss Bahar that there is no such thing.
What happened? Say something.
What do you want to hear, Mr Selim?
Talk behind a dead man's back?
I'm not saying that at all.
I'm just talking about the petition.
This is nonsense.
And Mr Ziya was also talking nonsense.
I can't believe how you don't understand anything.
You also know that Ziya Sir was a teacher like all of us.
I think that it should be taken seriously.
And yes, there are some
names of the students as well. Look.
You are expecting too much.
Do you realize that one of the names in this
is that of the daughter of the owner of the school?
If something needs to be taken seriously, I know that.
I've been running the school for long.
And you also know that I know my job very well.
So stop interfering in my work.
Mr Fikret, calm down, don't get angry.
Don't make me angry.
Do your job, Mr Selim.
We have hired you to teach literature.
If you do that job properly, it will be enough for us.
There is no need to do anything more than that.
I'm tired of warning you.
Or do you want to keep selling books on the footpath?
Very good.
Great research on me!
There's more.
But this is enough for today.
I have said whatever I had to say.
Selim Sir?
Yes, tell me, Ekim.
Sir, I want to talk to you about something important.
Your restlessness tells me that it is very important.
Yes it is very important, Sir. I went to talk to Ms Bahar as well...
Let's talk after class.
Ekim?
What is going on?
No...
Nothing. I just...
Come with me.
Where?
Don't ask questions, man.
I have my class now, I will be late.
This is more important than the class.
I owed you coffee, right?
Ayse? You have come back?
So? You still need a partner in chemistry classes, right?
And tell me what's going on.
Wow! Wow wow!
The love birds are united again!
Look at his face.
It is shining.
You guys focus on your business.
Poor thing, fighting for love.
What a couple.
Why have we come here?
Don't you think the time has come for you to learn something new?
Like what?
When I was five years old, my dad threw me into the pool.
It was difficult but I learned to swim on my own.
Absolutely not. Don't even think about that!
Do not be afraid!
I'm not going to throw you in.
I'm not that bad, Ekim.
Umm...
No don't do that, don't throw me in.
Do you want people to make fun of you all their lives?
I don't think such people will be with me for the rest of my life.
And I don't even want them to.
Let me go, let me go!
[dramatic song playing]
Let me go.
Let me go, I don't want to stay.
The first rule is that you have to find your balance.
Nothing will happen from thrusting hands and legs like that.
To hell with balance. I have to get out.
- You want to beat me up? - Yes!
If I let loose, you will drown.
Don't do it to me.
If you keep your mind calm,
then everything will be fine.
I want to get out of the pool.
I don't want to swim.
Mr Suleyman?
Sit, sit down.
So?
What was the thing you couldn't tell me on the phone?
The situation is not good.
I don't understand.
Is it about Halil?
No no, this time it is something else.
So who is it?
The literature teacher we hired, Selim Sir.
He found out the petition written by Mr Ziya.
What kind of petition?
A petition in which he wrote about bullying.
And it includes the name of Melisa as well.
How did he get that?
I don't know.
So all these things are going on behind your back while you are in the school?
Why are you the Principal?
Answer me.
I don't know how he got that, I myself am in shock!
I don't understand what to do.
Melisa doesn't listen to me and she doesn't get along with the teacher.
And she spends all her time on the new scholars.
Every time I have to be the one
to mend things on both sides.
What do you want to say?
I am telling you what is happening.
Don't tell me!
Do something by yourself.
Just keeps talking!
Speak carefully, Mr Suleyman.
Ziya had told me everything and I stopped him.
How would I know that he will write a petition?
I also spoke to Melisa.
If I had the slightest clue that school students would take these steps,
- I never would've let that happen. - That's enough!
Listen to me.
My daughter has nothing to do with it.
Do you understand?
If necessary...
put forth one kid's name forward.
The finger should not be pointed at my daughter.
Kanat and Ozan.
As always, you will work only for me.
Understood?
Great!
Because of you, I have to walk around like this. Thank you very much.
It would've been nicer if you stayed longer.
Don't forget, I asked you calmly.
I don't understand you.
That's what happens to you every time.
It is in your nature to bother me!
You all only know how to be manners-less.
May I come in?
Yes, absolutely, come in.
Ekim wanted to talk to me too.
- Complaint? - Yes, it is the same.
But I told her that I didn't find anything.
And she didn't believe that at all.
This will only bother Ekim.
We have to keep her away from all this somehow.
Tell me, what do we do now?
Don't know.
All the students whose names are written in the petition,
belong to the same class except Kanat.
There is no evidence. What will we say against them?
So what should be done then?
In my opinion, we should think it through properly.
Because, as long as there is a discussion on this,
Ekim will continue to stay bothered.
Got it.
According to you, we must be silent now.
- Are those papers in the file? - Yes yes, those are there.
That seems correct to you as well, right?
Just give me a bit more time.
But we have to be more careful about these students?
And I myself... will talk to them one by one, okay?
Okay?
Okay, that works.
Wait, I'll talk to her.
Okay, we will wait here.
Melisa?
I need to talk to you about something.
What happened?
I have come to talk on behalf of others as they are all scared to speak.
Okay, tell me.
They saw Kanat and Ekim together in the dressing room today.
So what?
What were they doing?
They just found them talking.
And?
Melisa?
There's probably something going on between the two of them.
Listen to me.
I have full faith in Kanat.
He will never cheat on me.
And definitely not for someone like Ekim.
Melisa, listen.
If you don't have anything else to say, I have to go.
Melisa?
They never miss a chance to be with each other.
Dude, you too!
I didn't know you would care so much about me!
Okay.
I have understood everything.
You can never have Kanat.
So learn to stay within your limits.
So someone has taken my place today.
Now I understand why you ran away from the world and came here.
How strange is that!
I didn't get it.
When you look down from here, everything...
looks very small.
But as soon as you go down, people's problems look way bigger.
Yes, that's right.
Why did you write that statement in Ziya Sir's notebook?
Because that's true.
They all shed fake tears in front of the world,
but keep doing evil to them behind their backs.
Sir was not so silent.
He complained about what was happening in school.
I know, but nothing happened.
Or maybe somebody didn't let him work on it.
Hazal?
I need your help.
Yes tell me.
Everyone is quiet.
I can't sit quietly like others, you are like me too.
If both of us work together,
maybe together we will be able to make some difference.
Ekim?
You know all that is not so easy.
And I also have my own problems.
You know.
So it will be better...
You ignore all these...
And leave me also alone.
I thought you were different from others.
I am not on anyone's side.
And I wouldn't like to be on anyone's side because in the end, I am always alone.
Take care of yourself.
Sorry.
Had to take care of something important.
That's okay.
Well, how is it going with Ekim?
Great.
Everything is going perfectly fine.
Will she get trapped?
Yes definitely.
Trust me, Aziz.
