FILINTA
AN OTTOMAN DETECTIVE STORY

There is no doubt. This is Thomas' car.

They killed the military attache
and then left him



in front of the embassy
with his burning car.

Ottoman Intelligence did this for sure.

If they are trying to teach us a lesson,
they will face a worse one.

My Sultan, we know that Russians
have spies in the Ottoman Intelligence.

They...

Ambassador, are you aware of
what you're talking about?

My Sultan...

The meeting is over.

Are the ambassador's
allegations true, Pasha?

We'll find the murderer, my Sultan.

You made the police look like fools
because of a worthless murder case.

What do my police do and
what is intelligence good for?

Isn't there anyone that will save us
from this situation?

I will take care of the rest.



Dear Russian Ambassador
and French Ambassador

thank you very much for accepting
my invitation and coming.

Let's make it short, Mr. Henry.
What do you want?

Getting right down to it,
my favorite way of diplomacy.

As you know, our military attache
Sir Thomas has been murdered.

-And you're suspecting us, Russians.
-Or us.

Gentleman, we're diplomats.

We should let someone else
think about the public safety.

Diplomacy is the art of turning
a crisis into opportunity.

Let's get to the point, Mr. Henry.

What happens if the
Minister of Internal Affairs

can't find Thomas' killer?

The Minister of Internal Affairs
would fall into disfavor

and this would pave the way
for more disorder.

Let's hope that Ottomans
don't solve this murder.

I heard that padishah got a very
famous officer off the hook

and pardoned him for a year.

We will see what that famous officer
will be able to do.

Riza!

Where the hell are you?

Riza!

Asshole! Riza!

Captain, Riza has disappeared
into thin air.

We found two dead bodies
in front of his house.

It seems like whoever eliminated
the witnesses also attacked him

and he got away.

But God willing, he won't get away
from us, Captain.

Riza!

You filth!

I swear to God that I will find you
even if you go to the back of beyond.

I will make you pay.

He's been the same since the morning.

He just keeps staring
at the sea, Cadi Efendi.

I'm wondering

after all that has happened

if he's gone nuts. What happened?

Hasan, thank you.

Thank you.

I wonder how he got off.

How will we deal with this damned person?

When I found you in front of the Kulliye,
you were this big.

Maybe you won't believe it but
you used to fit in my arm.

You grew. Praise be,
you are a big boy now.

I thanked God whenever
I looked at you or Ali.

Then God took Ali in his mercy

but we never revolted against
the will of God.

We accepted our fate, son.

It's not the time to be depressed, son.

It's time to fight cruelty.

I, as Cadi Giyaseddin Hatemi who condemned
you to death, am telling you

to be on my side in this war
and we will prove your innocence

or abandon Istanbul tomorrow, son.

Let's go to Ali, sir.

Let's go to Ali.

Thank you.

Do you remember that we used to play
all the time when you were little?

Look, here's the situation, son.

They are playing with us.

The other party made its move.

Witnesses have been killed.

Riza has fled.

If we don't stay calm,
they will beat us easily.

Padishah pardoned me for a year, sir.

What is a year? It comes and goes.

You'll see, within a year we'll both
acquit you and clean up Galata.

Son, whoever set you up is very powerful

but there is something bigger going on
behind the curtains.

However, our reason, wit and courage

is bigger than all of them combined.

Excuse me.

And we will spoil this big play.

Don't you worry.

Nanny, come on let us look at some hats.

As always, you have great taste.

This hat came in just this morning
from Paris.

Wonderful. I love it.

Just a moment please. Tend to Ms. Azize.

Mademoiselle Zaharyas.

-Do you have anything new?
-Of course I do!

Although for a beauty like yourself...

As you wish.

This color would go great with your eyes.
You should try it.

Thank you, but you have already chosen
to get that one.

Please, try it.

Are you sure?

Nanny, what do you think?

Think what? You already have fifty hats
in your wardrobe.

Thank you.

I'm very sorry, I didn't introduce myself.
Lara Zaharyas.

Azize.

Come along, we are going to be late.

Plus you bought a hat here
just the other day.

You have every color at home. Blue, red...
-Alright, nanny!

It was very nice to meet you.

This one.

Of course. We will have it delivered
to Boris Zaharyas' house.

-Please do. Lara!
-Alright, nanny.

Come to my house for a fitting
tomorrow night.

-What fitting?
-Do not tell anything to anyone, okay?

Is there anything else?

Well well, look at this beauty here.

Some mothers do have them, brother.

Please. Don't get up.

Make yourself comfortable.

This is Mustafa...

-Would you like a drink?
-No.

It's forbidden, it's a sin.

And killing a man is not a sin, Selman?

But you know what? I don't drink either.

Alcohol is weakness.
It gives fake courage.

It changes a man.

And I can't stand anything
that makes me weak.

Boris Efendi, can I ask you a question?

This Mustafa is a junior officer.

But you are a great banker.

Why did you burn the warehouse down
to kill Mustafa?

Why did you hand out so many bribes
in order to have him killed?

Let me tell you a story, Selman.

One day an old Bedouin's turkey
gets stolen.

The Bedouin calls his son and says:

"Find and punish the thief
who stole my turkey.

Or else there will be a big disaster."

The son says, "What could possibly happen?

It is not worth it. It is just a turkey."

But after some time passes,
the Bedouin's camel gets stolen.

The Bedouin's son comes running
to his father.

The Bedouin tells his son,
"Never mind the camel thief,

find the thief who stole the turkey
and punish him."

Once again the son does not listen.

This time the Bedouin's Arabian horse
gets stolen.

The son comes whining to his father.

His father says:

"Did you find the man
who stole the turkey?"

The son goes.

After a while, the son returns
to his father's tent crying.

He says, "Father,

they stole all of our possessions."

The Bedouin tells his son,

"I told you to find the turkey thief.

Had we found and punished
the turkey thief that day,

none of these disasters
would have happened.

Because when they saw that they
could steal our turkey,

we lost everything."

So Selman

that is why you need to strangle
it at birth.

How was it, did you like my story?

Who are you to question me?

Incompetent dog.

God, may Ali rest in peace.

Let us go, sir.

We have work to do.

Let us go.

Good evening, Cadi Efendi.

The British want to take the corpse.

We cannot prevent it any longer.

What shall we do?
-What corpse?

You need to get some rest
and pull yourself together.

We can handle it my son.
-I am rested, sir. Thank God.

A man from the British Embassy
was killed last night.

The Sultan put us in charge
of solving the case.

Let me see the corpse.

Come on.

Lord Bergen.

If you'll excuse me. Excuse me.

Here is the 1848 Chateau Lafite
I mentioned it to you.

Please accept it.

Boris, you are very generous.

Please call me Henry.

Sir Henry, it is you who honored me
by accepting my invitation

despite what has happened to Sir Thomas.

Such a great tragedy.
-Yes, a great loss.

Though he had fallen quite a bit
from favor these past years.

He was...

How can I put this, he had problems.

Gambling.

My good man, is there anything
you do not know?

I just catch the wind of things.

I cannot tell you how valuable
they are for my country.

How so?

Sooner or later the Russians
will take possession

of Istanbul to control the straits.

When that happens, if you would like
somewhere to live comfortably

with your fortune, the British
will accept you with open arms.

I see.

So I will live at a country manor
in Britain

without any objections, is that it?

With your great fortune.

But as a nobody.

I do not understand.

Sir Henry, did you get a chance
to look around you?

No.

I don't mean the inside of the house.

Look at this precious city.

This city is mine.

Not even a leaf can move in this city
without me knowing.

Now, tell me, can you give London to me?

Once again, your daughter
is the brightest star of the night.

-Father.
-My dear.

May I introduce you to Enver.

-Lara's fiancee.
-Let's call him a suitor.

I see that you haven't been able
to win my daughter's heart yet.

Enver's father owns the biggest
commercial fleet in the Ottoman Empire.

Young man, you are a very lucky.

Sir, now that I got a hold of you,

I'd like to tell you about the foundation
we have established.

Of course Mademoiselle.

Poverty is knee-deep
around the Galata Port.

The children can't even find
a slice of bread to eat.

Their health problems are heartbreaking.
With my father's support

we help these people with the
foundation we have established.

We expect the British government
to help us as well.

Of course.

Tomorrow I will have my butler Marcus
bring you twenty gold coins.

I would have expected your empire
on which the sun never sets

to be a bit more generous.

Of course, young lady.

We will bring you 50 gold coins tomorrow.

Boris, please excuse me. I have to go
and take care of Sir Thomas' funeral.

Of course.

Madamoiselle.

If you'll excuse me.

For how long do you think
you'll keep me waiting?

Forever if I can.

Even your father introduces me
as your fiancee. Yet you still rebel!

What do you want woman?
-Mind your hands, Enver Efendi.

Come, nanny Gulbahar.
We have got work to do.

Oh, man!

Chief for God's sake!

The man is already burned.
You want us to burn him as well.

Glass.

Someone stuck this in his neck.

Wasn't this man burned?

Well, maybe the window of the coach
was broken and it got stuck in his neck.

Maybe.

Why aren't any other pieces of glass
in the rest of his body?

His front teeth...

What happened to his front teeth?

I guess he hit his head.

Did you find any teeth in the coach?

No, Chief. I guess they were burned too.

Look.

Come over here a little.

Good God!

Chief, did they stick silver
in his throat?

Hasan, the victims front teeth
were made out of silver.

They melted and piled up in his throat.

Do we have a photograph of Sir Thomas?

We do, yes we do, Chief.

But those guys from the embassy
stonewalled us. The cranky...

This is not Thomas' corpse.

Whoever this man was, he was killed
by getting hit on the neck by a bottle.

Then he was put in the coach
with the cane

to make it look like it was Thomas
and then burned it.

The horses already knew
the way to the embassy.

That's why they went all the way there.

But then who is this man?

If this isn't Thomas,
then where is Thomas?

Sir Thomas, everyone thinks you are dead.

But here you are in the flesh,
standing in front of me.

You promised me you would smuggle me
to Marseilles tonight.

Yes and you promised to give me
some information.

-Hasan.
-Yes, your lordship Cadi Efendi.

Take Mustafa to Agha Efendi's hot bath.

Send my regards to the owner.
Tell him to fire up the boiler.

Let Mustafa have a nice bath, clean up
and get up a full head of steam.

As you wish, Cadi Efendi.

Mustafa, tomorrow after the morning azan
I will be expecting you

at the Galata Police Station.

-As you wish, sir.
-Godspeed.

Are these true?

Yes.

The British Navy will not come down
to the Mediterranean.

-So?
-Britain decided not to attack Russia.

So, there will not be a war.

All of the Galata bankers
who bought war bonds will lose.

War...

...misery for some, wealth for others.

Those who put in money will be ruined.

But I win.

Go to the Galata Port tomorrow night.

We'll find a ship
that will sail to Marseilles.

You promised you would send me tonight!

There is nothing I can do.

You got the information you wanted,

now you are throwing me out.

You didn't drive a hard bargain.
I don't need you anymore.

Look, I have lots of money now.

I'll give you a thousand coins.

Two thousand.

You promised me!

Step back.

Don't you get blood all over my room.

Secretly, drop the body
in the Russian Embassy's garden.

The Ottomans, British, Russians
let them keep blaming each other.

And he said he had a lot of money.

Make him talk.

It's gold, don't let it go to waste.

Mustafa.

Once again you escaped
from my clutches but...

...this time the becket
is around your neck.

Stop!

Don't push us at this time of night.

Look, you ran nicely.

If you are done jogging,
then don't lead us on a merry chase.

Now tell us where is the gold?

Damn you Riza.

I know the man Abdul works with.

Cadi Efendi, I saw it with my own eyes.
Mustafa is the one that killed Ali.

Then he destroyed Abdul and his gang
by blowing up the warehouse.

Mustafa is the devil himself.

Hasan, go ahead and go home.

Go on, I'll see you tomorrow morning.

No, Chief. You are going to come with me.

What do you mean, no?
I'm going to go home.

Chief, listen. After these last searches
your house has been ransacked.

And Cadi Efendi gave direct orders.

You will be staying with me until we find
a suitable place for you to stay.

Jesus Christ.

I know I am a sinner.

Help me.

Praise the Lord.

Thank you.

BRITISH EMBASSY *

-Welcome, sir.
-Thank you.

This is the letter of condolence
we will send to Sir Thomas' family.

If you could just sign it.
-Of course.

He was a strange kid.

He had skills, but his head was always up
in the clouds.

He was talented as well.

He was a good sculptor.

But he would never have made
a good ambassador.

Pack up his belongings.

Send this and the other sculptures
that are in his room to his family.

I want this place cleared up by tomorrow.

Marcus, come with me.
-As you wish.

Tomorrow morning I want you
to take 50 gold coins

to Boris Zaharyas' daughter.
Boris is an important man.

If we make his daughter happy,
we make him happy.

The safe! The safe is empty!

-Jesus Christ!
-We are ruined! The gold!

All of the secret documents are gone.
I'm going to go to the police station.

Marcus, stop. Don't cause a scene.
No one should know about this.

Tomorrow take 50 gold coins
from my personal safe

and take it to Boris' daughter.
Then go to Cadi's office.

We'll arrange a private meeting with him.
If this gets out, we are ruined.

We have the copies of
all the documents, don't we?

Of course as you wish.

Alright, put the document copies
into safekeeping.

You may go now.

Marcus. Marcus, only send men
you can trust to Istanbul.

Tell them to find Thomas.
-Thomas? But...

That vile gambler is not dead.
He is alive.

But how will they find him?

Tell them to look for the money.

You need to eat something.

You haven't eaten anything for days.

Make yourself comfortable. I'm leaving.

It's my turn for duty.

I'll see you at the station tomorrow.
-Thank you, Hasan.

Good night.

It is time Mustafa.

Mustafa, run!

Oh, my dear brother.

To what do I owe this honor at this hour?

I have a request.

Who is it this time?

Esat Pasha, The Minister of the Navy.

You will befriend him.

Alright.

Why?

All you need to know for now
is that you need to seduce him.

That will be enough.

What about Celebi Riza?

Azize, you ask too many questions.

My men are looking for him.

Is that all?

I heard you met my daughter.

Yes, she is a very beautiful girl.

I can tell she takes after her mother.

Lara and I have matching tastes.

Who knows, maybe she'll invite me
to one of your future feasts.

What do you think?

To you she will always be
Mademoiselle Zaharyas, not Lara.

That is the first thing.

The second thing

is that you will never set your
filthy feet in my house

unless I say otherwise.

Three.

Don't tempt me to cut
that tongue of yours.

I might happily do it.

Get some better furniture for yourself.

You are in pain Mustafa.

You are furious and desperate.

You will make a mistake.

And I'll be there to witness that moment.
I will witness your last breath.

Mustafa, I should have finished you off
when you still were a baby.

But fate put us off until today.

Listen.

As of this point, the duties of the
Cadi of Galata have been entrusted to us.

Chief Mustafa is back with us once again.

From now on he is the Captain of Galata.

You will be working under him.

Mustafa, do you have anything
you would like to say?

Friends, my situation is obvious.

If you do not want to work with me
you need to say it now.

I will not get angry and
I will not be offended.

Anyone who would like to work
with another Captain if free to do so.

Good.

Our first job is the Englishman
that was murdered.

Distribute Thomas' photograph
to the gates of Istanbul, the port,

the square, Pera everywhere.

And don't forget the train station.

Back to work. Come, Mustafa.

Oh, Cadi Efendi!

Welcome, Priest Efendi. What is the rush?

-The reason I came is not good at all.
-Please, come into my office.

We will be more comfortable there.
-Thank you, Cadi Efendi.

Cadi Giyaseddin Efendi,
this is a disaster.

Calm down, Priest Efendi. Calm down.
Take a deep breath. Please sit down.

Tell me what has happened?

Last night, the cross that has been
in our church for 200 years was stolen.

It was a gift to our church,
from Pope Innocentius.

If the congregation hears that
it has been stolen we will be ruined!

I understand.

Rest assured that we will do
our utmost best to find the cross.

Thank you. Thank you.

May God be with you.
-Godspeed.

-Thank you. Thank you.
-Please.

Yes, Mustafa.

We have another case.

Cadi Efendi, the British Ambassador and
his butler Marcus would like to see you.

-Send them in.
-Right away, sir.

Please sit.

Good morning, Cadi Efendi.

Good morning to you as well.

If it is possible, I would like to discuss
a private matter with you one on one.

Mustafa is Galata's commanding officer
and also my right hand.

You can speak comfortably.

Have a seat.

You know that our military attache Thomas
was found dead in his coach.

We have heard, Ambassador Efendi.
We are looking into it.

I don't know how to say

this but we don't think it was Thomas
that was burned.

Good grief.

How did you come up with this conclusion?

Gold was stolen from embassy's safe.

That gambling coward robbed the embassy.

Then killed someone else and then put him
in the carriage and burned him.

He set the whole thing up.

You don't say.

You already solved the case. Wonderful!

Was there anything else stolen
from the safe.

No.

No, only the gold.

My men are already looking into
the matter to help you out.

Look here Ambassador Efendi,

you are going to withdraw
your men at once.

If we come across them
while we are investigating this case

then by God, I will have them thrown
in the dungeon.

And if Thomas decides to go back
to the embassy

you will bring him to my presence.
Understood?

-But...
-There are no ifs or buts, Ambassador.

Not everything can be done
the way you want.

This is the City of Istanbul.

I will personally take this matter
directly to the Padishah!

As you wish.

You may leave.

What do you think of this matter?

If it was just regarding
the matter of money

they would not have come
all the way here.

There has to be a bigger situation.

In that case you need to hurry.

If they find Thomas before we do
who knows what will happen.

I know, sir.

They'll cover up the matter and
blame it on the secret services.

But if we can't solve this matter,
the Padishah will again...

May God grant you success.

Go on and finish this.

Certainly, sir.

100 for one day.

Payment up front.

For this vile room?

If you're looking for something better,
there's the door.

Look here. No one is to know
that I am here. Understood?

No one will look for you in this rat hole.

Who was the man you were talking to
in the living room?

-Jealous?
-No, I was just curious.

You didn't tell anyone that you
came here, did you?

As we said before. I didn't tell anyone.

Unfortunately love, I have to believe you.

-I don't understand?
-It's not important.

Boris; he is the greatest criminal
in Istanbul.

He wanted me to befriend Esat Pasha
the Minister of the Navy.

It seems like they are planning
a big plot against the Padishah.

Let me take that, I don't want
my sheets getting dirty.

Such a pity that you saw something
you should not have seen.

So unfortunate.

I guess this is what they call
death of a beauty.

Chief, the boys found it
in the burned down warehouse.

I had it cleaned and then
put in in your drawer.

Thank you, Hasan.

So you are the famous Chief
Filinta Mustafa?

Excuse me?

Yes, this is Chief Mustafa.
That's what Cadi Efendi had told us.

We just got transferred to this station.
Istanbul is my domain.

I mean our domain.

So what?

So Chief Mustafa, watch your step. Get it?

There are other roosters in this coop too.
Don't say I didn't warn you.

And what's going to happen
if I don't watch my step?

Wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful!

He is a Filinta. Filinta, Filinta.

Chief, so what happens
if you don't watch your step is...

Well, we will watch our step. So?
It's just feet we are talking about.

What the hell are you guys doing here?

Run along! Move it!

-Yes, sir!
-Yes, sir!

Good God!

Didn't I tell you 50 times not to
salute me every time you see me?

-Yes, sir!
-Yes, sir!

God, grant me patience!
Move come on, move!

I can take him down in wrestling.

He isn't that tall anyways. He's just
a span or two spans taller than me.

It's nothing.
-Yeah.

You could be taller
if you stood up straight.

I can take his head like this.
Grab him by the neck

then walk him all the way home like that.

Let us pay a visit to Osman the Head's
casino in Tarlabasi.

We will be looking for someone
with silver teeth.

Yes, Chief.

KARAKOY PORT *

So Weasel, you let an unconscious man
slip away from your fingers.

Well done.

That addict called Celebi Riza
has vanished into thin air as well.

Well done, Cemil.

Some people say this place smells
like a dump.

But they are wrong, they are very wrong.

This place smells a lot like money.

You don't see the other snob bankers
from Galata here.

But what controls the Galata Port
also controls Istanbul.

Isn't that right, Hamdi?

Do you recognize Hamdi?
He is the head porter.

Not one ship can sail off
without him approving first.

What do you want, Boris Efendi?

Can't I just miss you?

You wouldn't even miss your own father.

Hamdi.

It seems like you have forgotten
who made you the head porter.

Let me remind you.

I gave it to you and I can take it back
just as easily.

Now, pull back your dogs.

Is he your son?

Mecit, right? Yes, Hamdi.
He is all grown up now.

Did you know that your father
used to be a soldier?

Then he got dismissed from the army.

He was kicked out.

So Hamdi, what did you do after all that?
You came here.

You began working as a porter.

You won my favors.
Your father was very strong.

You would be surprised to know
how much weight he can lift.

I helped you out.
I made you the head porter.

But in return you made me
handle all your dirty work.

Hamdi, we smuggled in duty free goods
from Europe together.

Was it a bad thing?

People of Istanbul
are able to find everything.

Once again The Ottoman Empire won.

Don't you dare take The Ottoman
name in vain.

Oh, Hamdi!

It's been a long time since
the Janissaries have been disbanded.

But you are still carrying
the Ottoman torch.

What do you want, Boris Efendi?

What do I want?

The porters will not be working today.

What?

If the porters don't work today then ships
will not be able to leave today.

That's it. No ships will leave the port
until I say so.

Wait for my word.

You won't be able to find a ship
or escape, Thomas.

Father, what are we going to do?

Tell the porters to rest today.

And tell them they will get paid.
-But Father...

Move it!

May God grant you wisdom!

It's been a long time since
we last saw each other head.

I was hoping I would never see you again.
Once again, you've cheated death.

I'm going to be brief. I'm looking for
a gambler who has silver front teeth.

-Who the heck is that?
-Who the heck is that!

-Yeah.
-He was killed here two nights ago.

You don't remember?

Weren't you waiting for your execution
in the dungeon two nights ago?

How do you know a man was killed here?

Look.

Loaded dice.

Fraudulent.

Who other than you does a thing like this?

-Alright, alright. Listen.
-Now you're talking.

He was like Azeri or something.
His name is Kadir.

He has no family. He works aboard ships.

And every now and then came here
to play craps.

Was Thomas here as well?

That snob comes here to play, too.

Kadir had a lot of drinks and
lost a lot of money that night.

Don't you see these dice are loaded!
That's enough!

-What are you talking about?
-Look at them!

If you don't like it then you can
hit the road! Throw him out!

Don't come any closer! Give me my money!
Thieves!

Let me go you thieves! Give me my money!

Thieves!

Let go of me! You're all thieves!

What the hell are you all looking at!
Back to work!

Hayri, give money to my brothers
who are playing.

Tonight all the games are on us.
Stuff like this can happen.

Come on, continue gambling! Come on!

Come on now! Come on!

So like I said, it was all self defense.

Don't explain all this to me,
explain it to Cadi Efendi.

Stop, stop.

After all I have witnesses.

I'd be surprised if you didn't have any.

Look, I'll stay in jail for a couple
of days and then be set free.

Plus it'll be a vacation for me. Good.

Hasan, take this clown.

Take him to Cadi Efendi
and explain what happened.

Get up, up, up. Move it.

I know you rent rooms
for your high rollers

so they can go rest and
come back down to play.

Did Thomas have a room?

Answer him!

We rented a room for him
at Maria's Hostel.

Let's go, let's go.

What is this cross doing here?

Last night, the cross that has been
in our church for 200 years was stolen.

Well, that takes care of
the Priests problem.

Now let's get on with the Padishah's case.

Abdullah.

Mustafa.

Brother.

You didn't escape, did you?
Do you need to hide? Hurry, come on.

No. Amnesty was granted for a year
by the Padishah.

With God's help, I'm back at work.

Thank God.

So, what will happen in a year?

Well you are going to advise me.
God will help.

Then we will solve this game these men
are playing and be acquitted.

What will we do now?

First we have the British murder.

Then we'll go from there.
-Alright.

Come on then.

Mustafa, you go ahead. Just give me
a minute I need to do something.

Abdullah, what is this?

When it's done it will be like
a telegraph but with sound.

I'm sorry.

Look, it's like, you are at the station

and I'm calling you from the shop.
But we will be able to hear each other.

You will hear my voice and I'll hear
yours like "Hello. How are you?"

But it's not done yet.

There are a couple kinks I have
to work out then it's done.

Abdullah, what is this?

Mustafa, this is a beautiful thing.

It lets you see photographs come alive
on the wall back to back.

Photograph, but it moves.

When it finishes all the photographs
will come alive.

They will move and be so colorful.

Well anyways, what can I do to help you?

I'll be really glad if you can
tell me what is in this.

Sure. Let us have a look.

Nanny, come let's have our picture taken.

-No, I really can't do that.
-Come on!

They say a photograph
can imprison ones soul.

Nanny, that's nonsense.

Come on. Let us have something together
to reminisce on.

No, no. I don't want to. The memories
I have are enough for me.

Come on, nanny! Nanny, come on!

Come on!
-But...

Come on!

Mustafa, we have customers.
Could you please help them? Come on.

Madness. My boy. Well done. Well done.

-Come on.
-In the name of God.

Excuse me?

-Me?
-Is there anyone else here?

-No.
-Could you please take our picture?

Hurry up.

Look, he's still taking his precious time.

Lara, that is rude.

-Ladies if you please.
-Come.

Take it off and let's get this over with.
Give it to me.

Come on, nanny. Sit down on the chair too.

Why are you staring at us all irritating?
Take it already!

How was this done?

We lift this part like this.

Oh, that's it.

No, I can't. I'm scared.

What is there to be scared of nanny?
Look, over my dead body.

Don't say things like that Lara.
Heaven forbid.

Come on, nanny. Srtike a pose.

Come on then, boy.
Stop messing around like that.

God grant me patience.

I swear these two are crazy.

What?

Nothing, Miss.

Alright.

Ready, I'm taking it.

Smile.

-Good God, they are killing people!
-No, no, no. It's nothing.

You're laughing!
You made us look like fools.

My friend must have put a little
too much phosphorus on it.

That's what scared you.
-I don't feel good.

-How much do we owe you?
-You don't owe me anything.

-Come on and tell me.
-I don't know.

Ten coins.
-What?

Alright. One coin.

Here! Come on nanny, we are leaving.

I told you we should not have gotten
our picture taken.

Come on. Put this on, put it on. Move.

Come again.

Why would we?

Come on, let's get going.
We still have a lot of shopping to do.

I'm talking to you.

Paraffin!

-What?
-Paraffin.

What is it used for?

It is used in candle production.

What else?

It's highly flammable.

That's not what I'm talking about.
What else is it used for.

It's used to make molds.

Here.

What is this for?
You don't need to pay me.

The money is a long story.

Abdullah, I swear you are a genius.

And put less phosphorus in that machine.

I'm telling you,
you're going to get in trouble.

See you.

Hello.

Have a nice day, Uncle Nizam.
-Welcome and thank you.

Thank you. I came to get some meat
for the kids.

-How much do you want?
-Whatever you feel like giving.

Whatever I feel like giving?

Don't get upset Uncle Nizam,
I'm going to pay for it.

Why didn't you say so my girl.

But it would be a good deed
if you could put in some extra.

Oh, Lara. Here, this is from me
for the kids.

Wonderful, Uncle Nizam.

Who knows how much the kids
will be praying for you.

Here you are.

Thank you, Mr. Nizam.
Could you please put that here?

You again!

I swear it was not on purpose. I'm sorry.

It seems as though your marksmanship
isn't that good.

I'll show you!

Leave it, I don't need your help.

I need to leave urgently anyway.

Go on son and mind your own business.

I hope next time we'll meet
under more normal circumstances.

Lara.

Go on, go on, go on son. Go on.

Take care of these.

-May God bless you.
-Thank you aunt, you too.

Hello, aunty.

May God bless you.
May all you hold turn into gold.

-Aunty, how is your cough?
-It's not better. I'm still coughing.

Take these and cook yourself a nice soup.

Tomorrow I'll bring you a doctor.

You are welcome, aunty. Don't mention it.

May God bless you my angelic girl.
God bless you.

-Get well soon.
-Thank you. God bless you.

Lara, what is it?
You look preoccupied today.

Are you thinking about that boy?

No.

Why would I be thinking of him?

I would rather you marry anyone but Enver.

I can't make anything of that boy,
I don't like him. I swear to you.

Nanny, you know my father wants me
to marry Enver.

Right. What your dad really wants is
the ships fleet. Don't get me started.

You were yay big when they put you
in my arms.

I never knew your late mother
but you are my daughter now.

Would I want you to be unhappy
or anything to happen to you?

Fate.

Listen to me Lara, would you like me
to find out who this boy is?

No.

No.
-Alright, alright.

I get it, I do get it.

-Geez nanny!
-Fine. Let's just hope for the best.

Come on, come on, come on!

What do you want, Priest Efendi?

I need a barge for an off-shore ship.

We are not working today,
come back tomorrow.

You are a tightfisted priest.

Be at the Galata Port tonight
at exactly nine.

A barge will be waiting for you.

Look here!

What are we going to carry?

Our faith.

Alright, look here!

Alright, calm down! Good grief!

What is going on here?

None of the porters worked today.

That's why nothing was loaded
onto the ships

and they couldn't get their daily wages.

So they all came to Cadi Efendi
to complain.

Silence!

Since the porters arbitrarily
did not work today,

the loss of the merchant seamen
will be compensated by the porters guild.

I will personally talk to the head porter
and as of tomorrow morning

we will make sure the ships
will be sailing out as usual.

Now, if any of you have other complaints
you may come into my presence.

If there are no other complaints
then clear the square.

Good God. I don't understand
why they didn't work today.

Thomas is still alive.

He's in Istanbul.

Someone is trying to catch him
just like we are.

These men are powerful enough
to keep the ships from leaving

so they can prevent him from going abroad.

Why are they causing a problem?
Why don't they use the gates?

They can't leave Istanbul
with all that gold.

They will get caught in an instant.

We're going.
-What is it, where to?

To the Captains Coffee in Tophane, sir.

Wait, hang on. What about the cross?

It's at Maria's Hostel in Tarlabasi,
room number three.

May you live long, son. Go on then.
More power to you.

Crazy boy.

Go to Maria's Hostel in Tarlabasi.

You will find a cross
in room number three.

Bring it here right away.

-Yes, sir!
-Yes, sir!

Is Yorgo here?

Are you Yorgo?

Yes, reverend father.

I heard that you will be going to Naples.

The ship is filled to the brim, father.

I'm sorry I cannot take
any more passengers.

We will be leaving tonight.

As you wish.

Not me.

This wishes it.

Listen father, it is alright for me.
The ship's loaded.

We have our permit from customs as well.

But the crew is on land
and the ship is off shore.

We can't even find a boatman
to take us to the ship.

They won't let us.

We can't leave here before tomorrow.

Just be at the Galata Port with your crew
at nine o'clock sharp tonight.

Leave the rest up to me.

After we board the ship, two more
pouches will be waiting for you.

We have been waiting for you, father.

Where are you off to?

-I...
-Thomas!

Thomas! Thomas, stop!

Hasan!

Hasan!

Hasan, you must be one of God's
favorite subjects.

God. May God grant me wisdom.

Damned heathen!

Hush.

You know I'm going to find you.

KARAKOY PORT *

Here you are, Priest Efendi.
The barge is ready as we promised.

May Jesus Christ bless you.

Come.

We underestimated Thomas.

My mistake.

But he is still in Istanbul.

He will show up eventually.

And that is when I will say the last word.

Thank you very much.

Well, hello Thomas Efendi.

You look very much alive for a dead man.

You sold me out, Captain.

Galata Port at nine.

Don't just stand there,
everyone back to work!

You boys are so strong!

Alright, you win!

Fine I give up. Go on. Back to your toys.

Thank you, sister.

You would make such
a great father, Mustafa.

I hope we will see those days
soon enough. God willing.

God bless you, sister. Thank you.

I'm sorry.

We'll see if it's meant to be.

As long as you want it, the rest is easy.

Calm down, Hatun.

The boy just got out of jail.

You know, I have been thinking.

Hatice is of age now.

So, what do you say we do about that?

What do you mean by that?

Would it be so bad if she wed Mustafa?

You are right, Hatun.

I'll talk with Mustafa about it tomorrow.

He can come and ask for my sister's
hand in marriage.

Then God willing, they'll be married
before next week.

Really?

You women are so willing when it comes
to the subject of marriage.

This year ahead of Mustafa
is very important.

Let's close this subject
until he clears his name.

God grant me patience.

The police reports have been read,
witness testimonies have been heard.

Sir Thomas Anderson, son of Andre,
born in London

you are accused of passing
shipman Kadir as yourself.

Putting him in your coach and burning him.

And also stealing gold from the safe
of the British embassy.

Do you have anything to say regarding
the evidence and witness accusations?

Cadi Efendi, I took the gold.

But what I really want to say is this,

I did burn the deceased,
but I did not kill him.

We are aware of this.
Tell us how the incident happened.

He was already dead when I burned him.

When they took the poor man out,
I followed them.

The man was really drunk.

He began to fight with them.

After that, one of the men killed him
with a broken bottle he had in his hand.

That is when a plan popped into my head.

I took the deceased to my coach

and then lit it on fire.

To make it look like it was me
I put my cane in with the deceased.

The horses already knew the way
to the embassy.

I made my move while the embassy staff
was putting out the fire.

I knew the secret place of the safe.

Everyone in the building ran to the fire.

It was very easy. I opened the safe.

I was going to look dead,
plus I was going to have all the money.

So that takes care of the arsen and theft.

But, is there anything else
you stole, Thomas?

I have important information
that interests the Ottoman authorities.

I also have some criminal evidence
regarding a banker in Istanbul.

I would like to offer this information,
in return for a pardon.

And be granted political asylum
by the Ottoman Empire.

Silence!

We will take a recess.

I want you to rule that Sir Thomas
be extradited right away.

And also Thomas is not a Muslim,
he is a British Subject.

A Cadi does not have the right
to judge him.

Our Padishah has decreed a special grant
and he gave this duty to Cadi Giyaseddin.

He owns this case.
-This is unacceptable.

Ambassador Efendi,
our Padishah already accepted

your request to keep this incident
from growing.

Thomas will be extradited
back to your country.

Good, good.

Then it's settled.

But our gold is still
missing, Cadi Efendi.

Pasha. Your excellency, please excuse me.

Could you please step outside
for a moment.

What are you doing?
You can't burn the cross!

Don't worry. The real one is here.

That's impossible!

-Here are you gold coins.
-This is impossible, it can't be!

I can't believe it.

Nothing is ever as it seems.
One should not be judgmental.

Tell them Mustafa.

When one's mind
has a propensity towards evil,

no one can make heads or tails of it.

How was Thomas going to take
the gold out of Istanbul?

He used paraffin to cast a mold
of the cross he stole.

Hid the gold coins inside.

He thanked us like it was a burden.

Because he could not accuse the Ottomans
of murder and because he was wrong.

That filthy man would have liked it more
if the case remained unsolved.

True.

But sir,

why didn't the Padishah accept
Thomas' political asylum request?

That is for the Padishah to know.
This job is done.

Now, on to Celebi Riza.

Don't worry.

I will find that lying mutt. Even if
I have to go to the ends of the earth.

Take Thomas to the British Embassy.
Then let's get to work.

Yes, sir. If you'll excuse me.

You may go.

Riza...

...you would have died only once
but now you are dying every day.
