Filinta (2014–2016): Season 2, Episode 14 - Episode #2.14 - full transcript

THIS SHOW IS IN MEMORY OF THOSE
GLORIOUS MARTYRS OF

THE OTTOMAN EMPIRE, WHICH HAD
RULED JUSTLY OVER THE WORLD,

AND OF THE DESCENDANTS
OF THIS GREAT NATION

WHO LOST THEIR LIVES
IN THE PURSUIT OF JUSTICE.

FILINTA
AT THE DAWN OF 1000 YEARS

FILINTA
AT THE DAWN OF 1000 YEARS

We searched along the coast.
He is nowhere to be found, Chief.

You may leave.

Mustafa.

You filled him with bullets.

He probably sank because of the weight,
Mustafa.



Three days of free food for the fish.

You cannot eat fish from the Black Sea
from now on, I'm telling you brother.

You are okay, aren't you, brother?

I am.

God knows where that dirt bag's body will
wash up onto the shore.

My Sultan.

Our investigation is being carried out
quickly and productively.

I don't want any excuses, Pasha.

Our Ministry of Internal Affairs...

...will invest all its time
into this matter.

Yes, my Sultan.

What does the Ministry of Foreign Affairs
think about it?

We are doing our best to find the foreign
allies of those traitors, my Sultan.

Fine. The Imperial Council will help you
with everything.



It will establish connections between the
ministries.

Do you hear me, Grand Vizier Efendi?
-Yes, my Sultan.

When you find that traitor,
Boris Zaharyas' filthy body...

...I will immediately be informed, Pasha.

Four battalions from the
Selimiye Barracks...

...are deployed on the coastlines.

We will know about it as soon as it
washes up on shore, my Sultan.

Fine.

How did you contact Boris Zaharyas,
Mustafa?

It is obvious that someone
wanted me to make contact, my Sultan.

A person, or some people, who knew that
I was trying to determine...

...the leaders of the revolt
pointed me to Boris Zaharyas.

May I have permission, my Sultan?

You always have, Kenan Efendi.

You too, pashas.
I would like to hear your opinions.

You may join without asking permission.

My Sultan knows best.

However,
if the person being pointed to...

...is the head of it all...

...one should follow the sign.

My Sultan.

Kenan Efendi is right.

Zaharyas is a man of dark deeds.

So this makes him the only suspect
of this revolt.

Have you been able to get information
from Zaharyas concerning the revolt?

I got more than information, my Sultan.

They want to rule the Ottoman Empire
without dividing it, Mustafa.

Yesterday's coup attempt
was because of that, right?

Yes. That was the reason, but it failed.

We have all the encoded telegrams you
exchanged with Shahzada Mehmet.

With Mehmet? Encoded telegrams, huh?
That's how you know?

You were right about Zaharyas,
Kenan Efendi.

He went beyond getting information...

...and took the man's confession.

God bless him.

Our son Mustafa here
cut the arm off the revolt.

Now it is your duty
to cut the head of it, my Sultan.

What do you think about this, Mustafa?

Before cutting that head off...

...our Sultan may want to hear
what the tongue will say.

If the tongue causes disturbance...

...that disturbance will spread
to the people like a disease.

Then, it will not be enough to cut off
just the head alone.

You should make a tower of the heads
that you cut off.

Whoever...

...kills someone unjustly...

...kills all the people.

-Oh, my son.
-Mother?

Why did you bother coming here?

I will be released soon.

I hope so.

Soon.

You don't think I'm responsible
for this betrayal, do you?

What are you saying, son?

I know that they cannot find the
slightest trace of betrayal in you.

I know it, but...

But?

When you fall down into a blind hole...

...you hope for help...

...not from the place you step on...

...but from what you see
when you lift your head up.

God is the one who sees and who shows.

Only the power of the mighty Padishah...

...can reveal the injustice that is being
done to you.

He is like a father to you.

He is your uncle, the Sultan.

Kiss his hand.

Don't go to anyone for me, Mother.

And don't beg anyone.

I will not apologize to anybody
for something I did not do.

And I will not go there personally.

Even if it is my uncle, the Sultan.

Don't you know what will happen to us?

You will either be exiled
for the rest of your life...

...or you will die miserably.

Mother.

A lot of sons were sacrificed for the
continuance of the state.

If it is our turn now...

...we cannot do anything about it.

Enough about me.

How is my brother?

If the shahzada wants to be
alone together...

...I can send them away.

What happened?

I guess the "I see the heaven
in your eyes" days are over.

This is not about you.
-What is it then, my Shahzada?

I have been trying to make you happy
since you came, but I can't do it.

The revolt attempt has failed.

That thug called Filinta Mustafa...

...killed Boris Zaharyas.

The man I was going to make grand vizier
when I took the throne.

Are you upset about that, my Shahzada?

There are a lot of men you can make
grand vizier in the nation.

My uncle, the Sultan...

...wants to send me away with my brother.

I know it.

Mehmet will not be enough for him.

I know, it will not.

Okay.

None of this will happen.

You are the smartest shahzada of the
dynasty.

If not today, tomorrow...

...when you take over the throne,
I hope you will be the...

...mightiest sultan of all.

But then...

...you will throw away in a corner and
forget about Serzan.

You think it is possible to forget you,
my angel?

When in fact I cannot get you out of
my mind for a second.

Don't do it.

Get the bad thoughts out.

Call goodness and beauty,
so that they will come.

Come here then.

Come.

If my brother had seen his efforts were
not in vain, he would have been happy.

I am experiencing his happiness.

I have no desire but to be worthy of you,
my Sultan.

If the source of the trouble is Mehmet...

...then we will bury our happiness
in our hearts...

...and do our job as the person
responsible...

...for the continuance of the country,
without hesitation.

They say, the majority of the snow
falls on mighty mountains, my Sultan.

Hard decisions always...

...have to be made by the strongest.

What fell to my share
is to give up on people...

...who I considered my own children,
right, Kenan Efendi?

If the pus doesn't suppurate, then
the wound doesn't heal, my Sultan.

If the pus doesn't suppurate,
then the wound doesn't heal.

Well, I didn't expect it from
Shahzada Mehmet either.

A little stone may upset a large cart,
Pasha.

Everything is obvious, Mustafa.

You have already convicted
Shahzada Mehmet. Is that it?

No, man. What conviction?

He convicted himself by
attempting to do that, Mustafa.

Mustafa.

Pasha.

Mustafa sleeps with his one eye open.

He sure thinks about something
about Shahzada Mehmet.

We have to trust him.

He always turned out to be right.

Why does he talk to the rebel that much?

Mustafa probably has an idea, Sureyya.

After he killed Boris...

Is Boris dead?

Yes.

You don't know for sure, do you?

Well, when?

Today, Sureyya.

How?

He shot at Mustafa, wounded him.

Mustafa never misses, you know.

He shot and killed that devil.

The funeral?

There is no funeral. The fish in the sea
probably buried him by now.

What is it, Sureyya?

One would think you will cry behind that
dirt bag.

Of course, I will not cry.

We were just together in a meeting
at the bank.

When you said it all of a sudden...

I'm sorry Sureyya. I was too blunt.

Ali. Promise me.

You will be careful.
-Sureyya.

I guess you think I work for a carpentry
shop that makes dowry chests, huh?

How I wish that.

I wouldn't be afraid
if it is you or bad news about you...

...whenever the door knocks.
-If we think about the shooting...

...at your carriage, then I feel
I should be more worried about you,

Sureyya, wouldn't you say?

And there is that gift
with the bomb, right?

How did you find that out?

Ethem Efendi.

Sometimes I really wonder
if he works for me or for you.

I warned him not to tell anybody.

Of course he will tell, Sureyya.

What will I do if something happens
to you and our child?

Besides, you should have told me
before them.

I couldn't tell you because I thought
you'd be mad and do something stupid.

Sureyya, yes, I shouldn't be mad
not to do something wrong.

And for me to not to be mad,
you should live in a safe place.

Where?

You should go to Karamursel, Sureyya.

Somewhere nobody knows.

I have nothing else to say.

It's up to you to trust me or not,
Mustafa.

It would be easy, if it was up to me my
Shahzada, but it is not.

Everyone is giving your name.

They say, "we would have overthrown
the Padishah...

...and brought Shahzada Mehmet, instead."

And I say, I have no knowledge of it.

And you expect me to believe his.

That is up to you, Mustafa.

Go home, sleep and relax.

You are exhausting yourself for me.

-Welcome. I see it's you.
-Thank you.

-I'll put a plate for you, too, then.
-Don't bother. I won't stay.

Why not?

I will take Davut Pasha's keys and leave.

Where are you going
in the middle of the night?

Stay the night and
leave in the morning.

Don't worry. Can I take the keys?

It should be here.

Here.

Thank you for having me.

You're welcome.

Check.

To make sound moves when it's
necessary...

...you will not hesitate to lose your
strongest piece, Efendi Cemil.

You are right.

Boris Zaharyas' death will give us the
opportunity to make bigger moves.

Under the condition that your opponent
makes the move you want.

One of the best pieces.

Under the condition that they sacrifice,
Shahzada Mehmet.

Bravo, Cemil. Good move.

Well, what if the Padishah doesn't have
Shahzada Mehmet executed?

Or doesn't send him to exile?

I'm not worried about the Padishah.

I'm worried about Filinta Mustafa.

I don't think Filinta Mustafa
plays chess well.

By the way, check.

He probably doesn't, Efendi Cemil...

...but Mustafa acts with his feelings and
his loyalty to his country.

That makes it possible for him
to make unexpected moves.

To think that you have taken measures
against Mustafa's unexpected moves...

...makes me feel relieved, Efendi Cemil.

You called for me, Supreme Master.

I didn't, Padre. Your new Efendi did.

Supreme Master.

I thought...
-The sword doesn't think, Padre.

The sword cuts where it is told to cut.

The one who thinks is the hand
that holds the sword.

From now on, you will cut wherever
Efendi Cemil tells you to cut.

Talking about cutting...

...first, let's start with your hair.

Sultan Murat III,
decided to kill his five brothers...

...when they set their eyes on his
throne.

Sultan Mehmet III...

...decided to have 19 of his brothers
murdered on different occasions.

Sultan Murat IV...

...decided to have three of his brothers
killed.

When those coming after us...

...want to get to the bottom of the
matter...

...they should evaluate it
based on the circumstances at the time.

I think that they had no choice
during that time.

Of course...

...a very young shahzada cannot think
about revolting...

...but devils who want to use him...

...exist in every period of time.

Just like they do today.

A shahzada that revolts...

Carry on, mute clerk.

A shahzada that revolts gets to be
executed.

For the order of the world...

...this is allowed.

This is where...

...your justice should be powerful and
your power should be just.

Fly already. Fly.

Come on, fly.

Fly.

Mehmet.

What are you doing here?
-Nothing, uncle. It fell into the water.

I saved it, I blew on it,
dried its wing but it doesn't fly.

Leave it alone.

God knows the best.

I am trying to be good, my Sultan.

Be good, Mehmet.

Be conscientious.

Those two make humans, human.

At the same time, be just.

You have it all, thank God.

-You shouldn't have waited.
-No way.

I can fan the flame if you are cold.

No, it's fine.

Mustafa, a bird made a nest
between the shutters today.

It will probably give birth.

-Did she go...
-Into incubation? No, I'm checking.

I'm not talking about that. Farah.

Did she go to bed early?

She left.

Where?

To her father's house.

Did you send her?

Davut Pasha entrusted that girl to us.

Understand that.

Hilal.

My daughter.

My daughter.

Don't forget me.

Forgive me.

What's your problem? I'm telling you that
your life is in danger...

...yet you roam around
like a street girl.

Don't worry. Your men followed me
all the way here.

For a moment,
I thought about ditching them...

...but then I thought you would
beat or fire them because of me.

You think this is funny.

But this matter can't afford games.

I made a promise.

Davut Pasha trusted me with you.

You can't enjoy yourself!
-You think I'm enjoying myself?

Calm down.

I can offer you a cup of coffee
if you want.

I will remind you of your ironic words...

...when I take out bullets and
poisonous arrows from your body.

Here. It is only possible
to destroy a nation...

...by destroying the hopes of that nation
about the future.

This is what we are going to do.

To stir up the Ottoman Empire
both inside and outside...

...until it gives up its hopes.

Allow me to tell you that you are
very stable about that, Mr. Milos.

Stability is our greatest ally
on the way to power, Server.

Are the headlines of Pertev ready?
-Yes, Sir.

You cannot lock up Ottoman Empire's
future.

You cannot chain the people's hopes.

Very good.

But we should find a headline...

...that is more peevish, something
that will make the people...

...go on the verge of a revolt for the
young shahzada.

What about this?

"Throne Bug."

Very harsh, but very good.
That should be it.

And have the artists draw a throne...

...infested by the bed bugs with
holes on it.

Put it next to it.

-Yes, Sir.
-Our purpose should be understood.

Have the writers write about...

...how Shahzada Mehmet
is a big freedom hero.

What about the articles in other
newspapers?

Like you ordered, we are mentioning
the betrayal of the shahzada...

...and how execution is a must and
that exile is out of the question.

Fine. I would like to see them
before they are printed.

Yes, Sir.

Remember, Server Mithat...

...first, we have to consume the hopes.

A nation, whose hopes are consumed...

...is like a beheaded rooster.

It will eventually come back
to the feast table...

...of the hand that holds the knife.

I'm telling you,
she is entrusted to us.

I understand. She is entrusted to us.

But she is not a child, Mustafa.

She can take care of herself...

...like she did up until now.

Besides, I'm not telling you to throw
the poor girl out into the streets.

If she wants to go to her father's house,
then let her go.

Leyla. Please, understand me.

Shouldn't I fulfil Davut Pasha's
last wish?

How can I do that? The man lost his
daughter as soon as he found her.

Get that into your head.

Mustafa, when did you start to love
Davut Pasha that much?

The former appearance of this room
was depressing me.

Didn't you wear what I bought?

Padre.

By the way, give that painting to the
hospital Doctor Leyla works at as a gift.

Who should we say it is from?

Who...

Boris Zaharyas.

No.

Say it's from Emir.

Commoner Emir.

By the way, I'd like you to go to the
monastery.

May I ask why?

Of course you may.

When would you like me to go,
Efendi Cemil?

Tomorrow, early in the morning.

By the way...

...I guess you have forgotten
to cut that ponytail.

I don't want it to be there when you come
here again.

What do you think, Efendi Cemil?

Some things just don't work I guess.

You shouldn't push it much.

What gives, Mustafa?

She has to help us.

There is no one else who has that much
information about the Brotherhood...

...which she was a part of for years.

What if her brothers are thinking
the same thing as us, Mustafa?

What if those dirt bags want to learn
about our agency from the inside out?

You think Celal gave the order?

Come on gentlemen.
Mind your own business.

Davut Pasha's killer is Celal.

Her father's killer.

Celal, who holds a gun to your head,
while you are saving children.

Mustafa.

Are you sure, brother?

Alright.

This goes really deep, guys.

We should look at the places
we haven't...

...and we should see
what the eye cannot see. Understood?

Pasha, you look at those places
you have mentioned.

I will see Shahzada Mehmet before the
Imperial Council gathers.

Farah is your responsibility.
-What?

You don't like me very much, do you?

Thank you.

The Padishah will gather
the Imperial Council.

And probably give his decision.

Do you have anything to say?

I said what I had to say, Mustafa.

The rest depends
on the Padishah's justice.

Mehmet.

My brother.

Brother?

You shouldn't have bothered.
-What do you mean bother, Mehmet?

Do you think I will leave my brother
alone...

...when he is facing
injustice and cruelty?

There is injustice.

But thank God, there is no cruelty.

When things are so obvious and
there is nothing left to say...

...why does he keep questioning the
shahzada?

Does Filinta Mustafa have doubts
about my decision, Ruhi pasha?

Of course not, my Sultan.

I think Mustafa...

...in accordance with your orders...

...is trying to do so
in order to avoid committing sin.

What do you think, pashas?

The traitor should be punished
immediately, my Sultan.

We are afraid that the longer it takes...

...the more uncontrollable the uneasiness
and the anger of the people will become.

Whoever intends to harm the continuance
of the Ottoman Empire...

...should be punished immediately,
my Sultan.

So that no one will dare show that
courage again.

Since you have been in the dungeon...

...I spent countless mornings at the
Sultan's door.

If those walls of the palace could talk.

I explained the situation you are in,
this painful situation to him.

Our mother went to see him many times.

Both our mother and I
know that you are innocent.

I know, brother.

Have a seat.

You are more anxious than me.

You...

Well...

Do you sleep here?

No, this is my living room.

Of course, I sleep here, brother.

I hope you will never be in this
position.

Amen.

Amen, brother.

I hope God saves you as soon as possible.

When you know you are innocent...

...the sofa you hardly want to sit on...

...the dampness
that seeps into you so deeply...

...and the sunshine you can only see
the smallest beam of...

...will all become tolerable, brother.

I am even thankful for that.

Thank God, brother.

Thank God.

What does the shahzada say,
Filinta Mustafa?

He says that he has full faith,
first to God's justice, then yours...

...and that he will accept
any decision you will make.

Fine.

What do you think?
I want to hear your opinion.

I, my Sultan...

...think that, before we believe the
words of the rebellious traitors...

...we have to get more detailed
information.

I know that your decision will have
no turning back.

So, I am afraid to make a mistake,
cause someone to make a mistake...

...and the sin from doing so.

Do you hear what Mustafa says,
Kenan Efendi?

The just attitude of the conscientious
sons of the Ottoman Empire...

...who have the fear of God
in their hearts like Filinta Mustafa...

...prevents us all
from making any mistakes...

...but we wonder if those telegrams...

...between that devil Boris Zaharyas and
Shahzada Mehmet...

...are enough evidence or not.

Of course they are evidence.

But whether they are enough or not...

...is something that only the
Ministry of Cadi can know.

If we prosecute Shahzada Mehmet...

...won't the people just think
we are incapable of...

...even making such a decision,
Filinta Mustafa?

That is a possibility.

But when they learn that...

...you turned the people who tried to
kill you over to the Ministry of Cadi...

...the people will bow before your
justice.

We take shelter in God for the decisions
we cannot explain in the afterlife.

What do you have to say about the matter
about the Ministry of Cadi, Kenan Efendi?

Our son Mustafa here has a big heart,
but...

...we are afraid that his lack
of experience in government...

...will be an obstacle for him to
see the greatness of the danger.

We know from our experiences that...

...this nation always sides
with the underdog.

Now, the underdog in the people's eyes
is not the person...

... that holds the privy seal, but the
person that is locked up in the dungeon.

It is possible for us to eliminate...

...the concerns of our son
Mustafa here...

...by a fatwa issued by
Shaykh Al-Islam Efendi, my Sultan.

Then, here is our decision.

Although the heart
doesn't want to accept it...

...the mind tells us that
Shahzada Mehmet is guilty.

Nevertheless, we decided to
make a decision...

...not with our minds or our hearts...

...but by consulting to the laws
and the holy book.

Shahzada Mehmet will be prosecuted.

In that case, my Sultan,
Cadi of Uskudar, Muharrem Efendi...

...is perfectly suited for this job.

This should start today.

Come on, granny.
I'm starting to take root here.

Being a coachman was just what I needed.

I haven't been able to go to a hot bath
for seven months.

Greetings, ma'am.

You shouldn't bother. Please.

Finally, thank God.

Please allow me one second.

Greetings.

Father, I don't think this works.

You are right.
We should try something new.

Water or vinegar?

Neither.

Castor oil.

Well done, rookie.
You didn't fall for it.

Assistant.

Castor oil.

Give me that.

I guess it worked, father.

It did.

Nanny.

How did you come?

Welcome. I'm so glad that you did.
Where did you come from?

Hold on. I will tell you everything.
One at a time.

Sultan Nur sent such a carriage to
Adapazari...

...that people bend out of their
bay windows.

I took my bag, get in the carriage
and came here.

Nanny, I'm so glad that you did.

You have brought light in here.
-We went over to your house first.

They said that you were at the hospital.
Then the coachman brought me here.

Here comes the monster.

I have never had such a perfect trip
in my life.

Bekri Efendi.

Yes, Madam Nanny.

Bekri Efendi.

Sister. Greetings.

Bekri Efendi, did you bring my nanny?

I wouldn't dare.

She just didn't want to wear
her angel wings today...

...so she honoured me.

She made me happy.

Sultan Nur asked the Agha of the
House of Felicity.

The Agha of the House of Felicity
asked Filinta Mustafa.

So, I brought her here. Thank God.

From Adapazari?

I would bring a lady like her all the way
from the Great Wall of China,...

...not to mention Adapazari.

She can snap her finger once,
and that will be enough.

Impertinent.

Okay, Bekri Efendi. Thank you.

Can you take my nanny's belongings
to our house?

I can take them and organize them
perfectly.

Don't. Please, don't.

Right. That's right.

Men make houses, women make homes.

I will carry the belongings...

...and you will organize them.

Greetings.

Wasn't there a coachman left in the
country...

...and Mustafa sent me him?

Nanny, he is not a coachman.

Don't even ask. It's a mess around here.

Mustafa probably sent him
because he can use a gun.

Is he an officer?

No. He is a thug.

I mean, he used to be.

Ma'am.

You forgot your flowers in the carriage.

Sister, greetings.

Greetings.

Nanny, this is great that you are here.

If that is the Sultan's decision...

...we should put aside
our own opinions...

...and help Mustafa, right?

Of course, Pasha.

I haven't been apart from Mustafa
since I was five.

I trust God first,
then Mustafa, more than myself.

But I still think that the source of the
trouble is Shahzada Mehmet...

...I'm telling you Mustafa.

Alright.

Tell me now guys,
which path should we follow?

-I'm thinking, Pasha.
-Enough already.

Stop calling me pasha.

I'm no longer a pasha.

We know if a person before us is a pasha
not from his shoulder ornaments...

...but from his heart, Pasha.

We have to find something solid before
he appears before the cadi.

Can I say something?

You will tell us to crush
the leader of the flies...

...but we are past that phase, Farah.

This is not about the flies.

If we don't want flies,
we have to dry the swamp, right?

Huseyin.

Yes, Chief.

You will help the lady.

Give her the documents she wants,
and answer her questions.

You will inform me about
what she is interested in.

Yes, Chief.

Good luck.

Good luck with your work.

I swear these telegrams are fake!

Did you understand they are fake
just by looking?

There is no time gap between
the sending date and reply date.

The man read and replied
at the same time.

And the other wrote a reply
before receiving a reply.

They didn't think about what they said.

Can you prove they are fake?

I can but it will take time.

Mustafa.

I was suspicious when he said
he figured it out at a glance, brother.

We should have gotten Abdullah
out of that ship.

Although we don't have proof...

...we know that there is something fishy.
That counts, too.

What about Esat Pasha's notebook?

Still licking it?

No luck there either?

-Yes and no.
-What?

What do you mean yes and no?

Now, father and I decided to process
a few pages.

We applied this liquid in my hand
to the pages.

-Yes.
-So that the pages...

...will be cleaned of gases.

Of course, we would have had something
more legible.

Really? I would do the same thing.

Mustafa, what are they talking about
brother?

Cut to the chase.

Will we be able to read it or not?

The writing is legible but not
intelligible.

Mustafa.

They can't even read what's written in
the notebook, brother. They can't.

I beg your pardon?

Can you live with a rabbit's heart?

Yes.

The language of the Balkans.

Figure out the rest of the pages
as soon as possible.

Then we will show it to decoders.

Do whatever you need to do and find all
the leads about the telegrams being fake.

The shahzada's head is on the line.

-It is an important matter.
-Yes, it is an important matter.

Mustafa, I'm afraid of that man, brother.

My God.

If we can please get to the point,
my Shahzada. I have a lot to do.

And I have my head on the line,
Cemil Efendi.

Things are becoming complicated.

What is going to happen now?

You made a lot of broken promises to me.

Now they say Mehmet will be prosecuted.

What will happen if it leads to me?

The Shahzada should not worry.

The cadi of Uskudar is famous for his
fair verdicts.

He will punish that traitor
as he deserves.

Are you sure?

Yes.

Do not worry.

Tell Cadi Efendi what you just told me.

If that's what you say...

Please.

But I would like to perform a prayer
before I leave.

Please.

The Padishah showed
how much he trusts you...

...by letting you be the cadi
for this trial.

I'm sure you will be worthy of his trust,
Cadi Efendi.

I am very glad of the Sultan's kindness.

We would like to be glad
with your verdict, Cadi Efendi.

Pleasing the Supreme Council is as
valuable as pleasing the Padishah for us.

Do not have even a shadow of doubt
in your heart, Supreme Master.

You can be sure that I will never
disappoint you, who have raised me.

The necessary verdict will be given for
the continuance of the Ottoman Empire.

Do not worry.

We would like you to know that...

...we are very happy to see that
our efforts have not been in vain...

...Cadi Efendi.

Mustafa.

You keep me company
whenever you need to protect me.

Let me survive this hardship first.

Only then will we come together to ask
how we have been doing, I hope.

Oh, please.

I am doing my job.

I will ask you to save me one more time.

I would like you to represent me
during the trial.

I am not convinced you are innocent yet.

Alright. That's why I'm asking you to.

You will understand that I'm innocent
when you defend me.

And you will prove it to everybody.

I seek refuge in Allah
from the accursed Satan.

In the Name of Allah,
Most Gracious, Most Merciful.

For those who are guilty...

they will be condemned
in the presence of God...

...and will suffer anguish.

It is the duty of our office...

...to find out the truth and
according to the truth...

...give the said person what he deserves.

Prophet Omar said,
"To stop committing sins...

...is easier than repenting."

God bless him.

Yet...

...if a servant is
inclined to committing sin...

...and he does...

...by threatening the life and the
throne...

...of the mighty Padishah,
his punishment is clear.

Instigating a crime...

...deserves punishment as much as
committing the crime.

Of course...

...our office always comes before our
hearts.

If there is anybody who has information
about this abominable incident...

...speak now.

Let us hear, understand, and...

...give our verdict.

Shahzada Mehmet Efendi...

...do you have a representative?

I do, Cadi Efendi.

Former field marshal from
Galata Precinct, Mustafa.

Being a victim of this
vicious and atrocious plot...

Just answer what you are asked.
There is no need for more.

Yes, Mustafa Efendi.

In defense...

...what do you say?

Shahzada Mehmet Efendi is not guilty.

I said defend...

...not give a verdict.

Gentlemen.

Think about a child

who lost his father at a young age.

He has nobody to trust.

Then, a door opened for him.

Warm and safe, like his family home.

This child did everything he could...

...for the happiness and continuance
of this family.

He thanked God for the bread he ate,
for the water he drank every day.

Then this kid grew up.

And he lived every day, remembering
the favors given to him.

Don't beat around the bush, Efendi.
Cut to the chase.

Do you think this is a performance hall?

Not by any means.

I thought it was important to present
my client...

...who is under suspicion,
in order to explain the incident.

There is no need for unnecessary
information.

Keep to the point.

If you have any evidence, a witness,
proof, go ahead.

Not yet.

But you will have them before you
in a few days.

You don't have time for that.

The Sultan ordered a verdict to
be given as soon as possible.

Bring your witnesses or evidence to the
office soon.

If you don't have anything else to say...

...the case will be adjourned until
tomorrow...

...in order to hear the witnesses.

My Sultan.

With all my soul...

...with everything I am...

...I trust Mehmet is innocent.

But even if he is guilty...

...you are our father.

Kids make mistakes.

Because they are ignorant, inexperienced.

In any case, they do.

I am begging you...

...not as the Padishah, but as our other
father, our uncle the Sultan.

Please forgive my brother Mehmet.

We are all broken too, Murat.

I still remember Shahzada Mehmet's
childhood.

I am afraid my heart
will prevail over my mind.

So, you will forgive him.

I turned this matter over to the cadi
to give a verdict

because I wouldn't be able to make
a healthy decision.

My Sultan, you know best...

...but if you give the order,
the cadi will have no validity.

If I wanted to give the verdict,
why have I trusted the cadi then?

We will wait and see.

So, you will not get involved.

I will not get involved.

I should not get involved.

But I am aware of your intention.

My intention?

You would like to do something for
Mehmet.

It is too late for that now.

You should stop this unnecessary
persistence.

As the Sultan wishes.

The holy art called
cunningness and secrecy.

We will learn to be invisible,
we will learn to be unheard of...

...and hold the fate of the enemy
in our hands, thanks to you.

Thanks to the cadi of Uskudar.

Cadi Efendi is doing what needs to be
done for us.

When he announces his verdict tomorrow...

...we will overcome another problem.

What will be our next step,
Supreme Master?

When Shahzada Mehmet's
journey to the grave is done...

...we will be one step closer to our
goal.

Then we will turn to our real target,
the Padishah.

Never use a tactic that brought victory
for you again.

We learned that from you.

We will do that.

We will find a new way.

We will invent a completely different
way.

But in order for us to do that...

...first, we have to overcome another
obstacle.

You are talking about Filinta Mustafa.

What do you think about Mustafa?

-How was the court?
-A disaster.

Cadi Efendi has already given his
verdict.

He is only doing the trial for
appearance's sake...

...and he blames me for putting on a
performance.

That cannot be right, Mustafa.
He is the cadi of Uskudar.

He's famous for his fair decisions
throughout the country.

You saw it too, Pasha.

Mustafa started to explain things
starting from his childhood

but Cadi Efendi didn't listen to him;
he brushed him off.

Is there anybody to testify that the
Shahzada is innocent, brother?

No,
but I will find one in time for tomorrow.

Are there any witnesses to testify that
the Shahzada is guilty?

A lot.

Everybody points at Shahzada Mehmet.

We have telegrams.
The Master says they are fake.

But he said he couldn't prove it,
Mustafa.

I have faith he will prove it.

Can he prove it before tomorrow?

He said it would take a while.

-That is out the window, too.
-Do we have anything else?

We don't.

So it's a desperate situation.

-Ali, we can't sit around.
-What will we do?

We will find witnesses, evidence.

-Where will we find them, Mustafa?
-I will go to 1st Army Headquarters.

You go and talk to Shahzada Murat.
Go on.

I don't think it's appropriate, either.

What was her name? Ferah?
-Farah.

I mean, what is a woman doing in a
newlyweds' house?

Except me, of course.
-Right, nanny? You say it.

Yes, but...

Lemons.

They smell lovely.

Nanny, you were saying something.

But he was trusted with her.
They trusted Mustafa with her.

What is Mustafa supposed to do? Huh?

We should look at it from his
perspective, don't you think?

There are no perspectives left.
I'm exhausted.

Come on. You have just started honey.

Be patient.

Our Prophet, peace be upon him, said...

...that there isn't a more precious and
more lovely building...

...than marriage in the eyes of the
mighty God.

So, you will not be exhausted.

You will adorn that building with your
love, understanding, patience, and beauty,

so that you will feel refreshed when you
go inside.

Besides, doesn't Mustafa,
who deserves your love...

...deserve your patience,
my beautiful girl?

Right? Why don't you be a little more
patient?

I'm so glad that you have come, nanny.

Davut Pasha's file.

Is that Shahzada Mehmet's case?

No, this is about Davut Pasha.

So it's about your father.

I cannot believe it.

I didn't have a father.

Then I found out who he was,
and now I don't have him again.

Sometimes it's better not to know.

No.

I'm glad that I found out.

I wish that I could have known sooner.

You want to talk, you want to hug.

I don't know, I will never know now.

Like hugging your son.

What did you say?

Nothing, I didn't say anything.

Well...

...were you...

...very close with Celal?

Yes, of course. We grew up together.

What is Celal like?

Celal...

...is someone who gravely lost himself
in the lies of the Brotherhood.

I tried to reach him but I couldn't.

My son.

My son.

My son.

Don't look at me like that.

-My...
-Don't look at me.

Don't look.

Don't look!

Don't look at me like that!

Don't look!

Ruhi Pasha, what would you like to learn?

Why are you interested in Celal
so much?

Oh, no.

I am just asking.

We heard that Husrev Pasha was their
leader.

Are the soldiers ready for revolution,
Selim?

Where is Husrev Pasha from?

I think he is from a village around
Silivri.

True. He is from Dumanli Village.

He bought a farm there.

We gathered the soldiers and
put up fences.

Thank you, Boris Efendi.
You are very generous.

That has been a big gift. Thank you.
-Good.

Is Husrev Pasha's
family wealthy?

You can't buy a place like that with the
salary of a pasha.

He was one of the orphans raised by the
Bimar Aceze Foundation.

You have all that education and
upbringing.

You become an example of honesty and
sincerity.

Then you end up in the dungeon.

I cannot understand it, Ali Efendi.

Unfair.

What is being done to him is unfair.

With God's permission...

...the truth will reveal itself...

...and the injustice
that my brother is facing will end.

I hope so, my Shahzada.

You can be sure that we will do our best
to find the truth.

Justice is crippled.

But sooner or later it will reach its
destination.

It will, right?

Right? Ali?

Will it?

Celal was with me since the day they
kidnapped us and took us to the monastery.

He always protected me.
Actually, he protected us all.

If someone cried at night...

...he would console them and make them
stop so that Mother wouldn't hear them.

We grew up together, all together.

I never heard him
complain even once.

He was the first to believe the
Brotherhood's lies.

Maybe he wanted to believe. He wanted to
belong somewhere, to hold on.

I don't know.

They all knew our weakness...

...and took advantage of it.

One day, those traitors will pay for the
sins they committed.

Sins, good deeds, good and evil,
they don't exist for them.

They only have their lofty goals, aims...

...and the order they have established
and protected for 2000 years.

We will destroy that order one day.

We will destroy their game.

From now on, no child will lose their
father.

No child will be taken from their mother.

The only mother we know...

...is the Mother who tortured us.

They made us forget
what a mother's love was...

...what a mother's bosom was.

I never got better after you, Davut.

A bleeding heart.

I just carried that in vain.

It stopped.

I couldn't breathe.

I couldn't manage to die like you.

Or live, either.

I knew you were looking for me.

But...

...what would we say to each other
if you found me?

Our dear child...

...our baby...

...our daughter...

...slipped from our hands.

I am...

I'm carrying the pain of my child
right here.

Right here.

Secretly.

Without anybody knowing.

Years have passed.

I passed.

But my Hilal didn't.

She doesn't even have a grave...

...where I can say, "If my feet go back,
my heart will not."

Look what I brought you.

Do you remember this?

You bought it for our daughter.

It never stayed on her hair.

I brought it for you.

Maybe this will entertain you, huh?

It still has the smell of her hair,
you know.

DOLMABAHCE PALACE

The cadi of Uskudar is handling the case
wonderfully, my Sultan.

His handling of the matter...

...his direct and result oriented
attitude is wonderful.

I trust fully that he will soon
solve the case.

Do you trust him fully, Mustafa?

I have no doubt about Cadi Efendi's
knowledge.

But I think he is rushing the case.

I ordered the cadi to conclude the case
soon.

We would like the case to be concluded,
too.

But our investigation about the Shahzada
is still going on.

And we do not have much time.

Besides, we have started to get
new information.

What is it?

I will inform Cadi Efendi about it all
tomorrow.

But if the Sultan wants to know...

Mustafa is right, Kenan Efendi.

The information that should be given to
the cadi, should be given to the cadi.

We will eventually find out.

As our Padishah commands.

Fine.

Husrev Pasha was the leader.

This is not new Mustafa.

Everybody we interrogate says the same
thing.

Yes, but they didn't tell us he bought a
farm house...

...in Dumanli Village, in Silivri.
-What's wrong with that, Mustafa?

He had money and he bought it.
-How did he find that much money?

You cannot buy that with your salary.

Maybe he saved money.

I don't know, maybe his father,
grandfather left it to him.

What if his father or grandfather didn't
leave it to him?

What if somebody paid Husrev Pasha
to bring him into action?

Alright, Mustafa.
Suppose that the pasha was bribed.

How will you prove it?

Mustafa, nothing will come out of this,
brother.

You know how much I trust your gut.

If you believe in the Shahzada's
innocence...

...I'm sure there is a reason for it.

But I think we are running our head
against a brick wall, Mustafa.

Mustafa. I agree with Ali.

Well, what if that brick wall is the
Bimar Aceze Foundation?

Boris Zaharyas is behind this betrayal.

You are the person behind the
Bimar Aceze Foundation.

You work for the Supreme Council,
don't you?

It means, the students of the
Bimar Aceze Foundation...

...are the servants of the
Supreme Council.

If we can find the connection
between...

...Boris and the Bimar Aceze Foundation...
-I have the document...

...that shows Boris paid 50,000 gold
coins to the foundation.

Boris. Bimar Aceze.

The students that are educated there.

Commanders.

They will all take us to the next level.

What did you learn from Shahzada Murat?

I didn't understand anything
Shahzada Murat said.

I don't think he understands
what he says himself, either.

Nothing will come out of that, either.

God forgive me, I guess the shahzada
has a loose screw.

Mustafa.

I will leave Istanbul for a few days,
brother.

Why?

I would like to take Sureyya out of
Istanbul until she gives birth.

I'm not comfortable when she is here,
Mustafa.

At least I will be at ease
when she is safe.

-Where?
-Karamursel.

You know Ethem Efendi's mother?
To her house.

Son, don't waste time. Bring it.

Yes?
-They said I could come in.

Yes, ma'am. I'm listening.

I brought an article for your
publication.

Did you write this, Ms. Ismet?

Ismet Fehmi. It's a pseudonym.
It's not my real name.

But if you think it's okay, I'd like to
write my articles under my real name.

-Will you please tell me your name?
-Feriha Nur.

Okay, Ms. Feriha.

If your articles get published,
we will pay for them.

Don't worry about the money,
because I don't.

I just want my articles to reach people
who think like me.

This is what I understand from earning.

-Would you like to sit down? Please.
-Thank you, I'm fine.

It will make us happy...

...to have new opposing voices
in our publications.

It will broaden our horizon.

-Slow down.
-Why?

You are walking fast and
only you hear what you say.

I said, I guess his brother and I are the
only ones...

...who believe the shahzada.

I suspect that we might both be wrong.

Suspicion is good.

It prevents mistakes.

Besides, think. What if you were the one
locked up unfairly?

And there was a possibility you may be
exiled without knowing the outcome.

And you'll lose dignity.
-So? What are you trying to say?

Wouldn't you want someone to do the
things you are doing?

You know, today...

...I examined Davut Pasha's file.

-What did you find?
-Nothing.

The man's file is empty.
-What did you expect?

He was the head of Ottoman Intelligence.

You can't find information
about a man like him...

...from a place everybody can.

What were you looking for? Ask me.

My mother. Anything about my mother.

It's so hard to make you talk.

I'm exhausted here.
-What should I say, Serzan?

I went there, gave the article,
he took a look at it and said "okay."

Server Mithat must have welcomed you
better...

...when you gave him my name.

-I didn't give him your name.
-Oh? Why?

Well, I want him to judge my ideas and
articles without bias.

When he says in the future, "I like your
article, we will publish it"...

...how will I know if he accepted
because of you or my ideas?

I have to understand that.

Or I will get hurt.

I already have a lot of wounds.

Don't start.

Don't talk about the past. Listen.

Good days are ahead of you, sister.

Come on, smile.

You are funny.

For centuries, in the lands that are
shaped through revolts and wars...

...the key to our future is in the hands
of grieving mothers...

...lamenting for the sons
who give their lives...

...for the pleasure of a bunch of
dynasty members.

By Ismet Fehmi.

Interesting writer.

It's like this article is written with a
woman's sensibility.

It is.

The writer is a woman, Mr. Milos.

-What is her real name?
-Feriha Nur.

Feriha Nur.

Offer her a job to start in the newspaper
tomorrow.

Yes, Sir.

What did you do about tomorrow's
headlines?

Wonderful case conduct
by the cadi of Uskudar.

Justice will eventually prevail.

Greasy noose on the horizon for the
Shahzada.

What about Pertev's headlines?

Cadi wants to get his hands dirty
with an innocent man's blood.

How can the Padishah kill his Shahzada?

Very good. Give these to the compositors
and have them set them right away.

Yes, Sir.

Just when we think our ammunition is
gone...

...we have found a new arsenal,
Efendi Cemil.

Ms. Feriha has come just in time.

Those who love her
have been waiting for a long time.

-Thank you.
-Enjoy it.

-Thank you.
-Enjoy it, my dear.

Thank you, nanny.

You saved me from Leyla's coffee.

It's okay...

...if the hand that holds an operation
knife cannot hold a coffee pot.

-She is very protective of you.
-Yes, she is.

Mustafa, will the Shahzada
be okay...

...since he's in the hands of the cadi?

It depends on the witnesses and evidence.

Why are you trying so hard?

Everybody heard.

This was Shahzada Mehmet's doing.

So, everybody hears better than me.

It's a waste of time.

If you don't punish these sorts of
attempts, new ones will happen.

It's the thin edge of the wedge.

Right, nanny?

My job is to suspect.

And this is the first time
I'm this suspicious.

Once again, it's a waste of time.

If an innocent man is on the line...

...both the time and effort spent on it
is worthwhile.

I'd better leave.
-Where?

You have a guest.

Your house is already crowded.
I shouldn't stay here.

No, dear. Don't bother.
Sleep in your bed.

I will sleep here.

I slept there when I first came here.
It's not very comfortable.

I don't recommend it.

Farah is right.
She will not be comfortable here.

We should let her go to her father's
house.

Don't waste your breath.

The officers will wait at Davut Pasha's
door instead of waiting here, Mustafa.

You also see each other
at headquarters all day long.

Let the girl get away from things
at night.

I wish you would stay with us.
That way, you'd rest.

We've talked about it, Süreyya.
I wish, but I can't stay.

I've got a lot to do. The
most important being the Prince's trial.

I believe the issue with the prince
will be resolved before we get there.

It's not that easy, Süreyya.
Mustafa is pursuing it.

And I can't leave Mustafa alone.

Why is Mustafa being so stubborn?
It's obvious that Prince Mehmet is guilty.

As I've told you, Mustafa must have
his own thoughts on the matter.

-Anything else you'd like me to do?
-No. Take care of the house.

Yasmin will stay with you here, Ali.

She'll take care of the cooking
and the housework.

If this girl cooks like she fights,

I'll have dinner at the lodge
every night. Keep that in mind.

No, she's a good cook.

First thing tomorrow morning, you should
go to the station to ask for back up.

The back of the house
faces the woodland.

Don't ignore that area. Is that clear?

Yes, sir.

You'll go with two officers and
come back with two officers.

Don't try to shake them off.
Don't make them lose their jobs.

I won't.

Won't you give me your keys?
I'll open the door for you.

-Be on the lookout.
-Yes, sir.

My father was not killed by
the Ottoman Empire, Celal!

You killed him! You are the one
who killed my father.

But this death should not be
an ordinary murder case;

it should yield
serious political outcomes.

If we kill the Prince,
he'll become a hero.

However, if he's killed by a subject
close to the Ottoman Empire,

he'll be deemed as impure.

That's why we should not be
the murderer, but the agitator.

I humbly offered my opinion.

Bravo, Efendi Cemil.

It's impossible
not to admire your brilliance.

I don't believe in coincidences.

I believe that if you follow the footsteps
of a predetermined plan,

you'll reach ultimate victory.

However, the emergence
of Farah's mother Feriha

is a development we had
never foreseen.

We should seize this opportunity,
Efendi Cemil.

Catching Farah
when she is most vulnerable,

will work to our advantage.

You're absolutely right, Your Highness.

Nevertheless, we have a
slight obstacle in our way.

-What is it, Mr. Milos?
-Feriha herself.

I wanted to assign Server
for this mission.

However, as I understand from
what you've said,

Feriha has her principles.

Yes.

It doesn't seem possible that
she'll get closer to her boss.

However, I don't consider it risky
for her to get closer

to her boss's acquaintance.

Of course, with Şerzan's help.

What do you say, Efendi Cemil?

Your wish is my command,
Your Highness.

Good, then.

I seek refuge in you to prevent me
from becoming a heretic

or cheating someone of their
rightful due.

Don't spare my Sultan Uncle from
your mercy and your grace.

For the sake of the survival
of our state,

don't allow anyone to meddle with
our peace and order.

Please don't withhold your might
from those who shed blood for this land.

Grant them happiness in your heaven,
dear Allah.

Please accept your subject's prayer,
my dear Allah. Amen.

May Allah accept your prayers,
my Prince.

Guard!

Are you okay, soldier?

I'm fine. Don't worry, my Prince.

What did you mean earlier?

Something my grandma used to say
when we were young.

Even when it's cloudy,
the sun always shines.

Soldier?

What was the saying you said earlier?

Even when it's cloudy,
the sun always shines.

Even when it's cloudy, my Prince.

Ruhi Pasha, I'd like to go to
the courthouse with you.

Why bother?

You're pursuing your inquiry.
Do what you're supposed to do.

I don't like sitting here while everyone
else is running around, Ruhi Pasha.

-I'm not used to it, either.
-Be patient. It'll be your turn soon.

-Be patient.
-I might see someone.

I might recognize them.
I might be of some use to you.

That's why I want to come.

Okay then, come along.

I've brought the documents you asked for
from the revenue office, Pasha.

Thank you. Come on.

That's why I believe Hüsrev Pasha
accepted the bribe to lead the riot.

If we can find out who bribed him,
it will be easier to save you.

I've bothered you with my problems
many times, Flintlock Mustafa.

You've been of great help to us.

It's not worth mentioning.
I give you my blessing.

-Good day, Kadi.
-Good day to you too, Efendi Cemil.

Today is very significant for
the survival of our nation.

I'm well aware of my responsibilities,
Efendi Cemil.

Our almighty council believes in your
justness.

We have no doubts that
you'll lay down the best verdict.

You shouldn't have any doubts.

If you have time,
stay and watch the trial.

You'll see with your own eyes how
perfectly justice is served.

I'd love to. However, His Highness
will be observing the trial.

I'd be honored to be worthy of
his praise.

When the ones who'll come after us

want to dig deeper into this issue,

they should assess the situation in line
with the conditions surrounding it.

Of course, a Prince at
a very young age cannot plot a riot.

However, demons
who want to use the Prince

have always been present in every age.
Just like today.

Insubordinate Princes are executed.

It's legal for a Prince to be killed
for the sake of order in the country.

This the very place

where justice should be strong

and the strong should be just.

It's not possible that our Prince was part
of such a plot, Kadi.

On what grounds are you saying this?

Our Prince has always been loyal
to our Sultan.

I was serving our Prince
the day the event took place.

He was as surprised
and angry as we were.

If he had known,
he wouldn't have been that surprised.

Understood. Well then.
One last question for you.

Are you here on your own accord?

Filinta Mustafa told me to come,
and I came, Kadi.

Our Prophet Muhammad whose name
means highly praised thus spoke:

Shall I tell you about the most
favorable witnesses?

They are the ones who come
to testify without being asked.

The day of the incident, I had delivered
the vegetables to the palace

and was on my way to the market.

Suddenly, I was surrounded by guards.

I was afraid and hid but they pulled me
out and said, ‘Don't be afraid.’

We'll harm neither you nor your produce.
Our problem is with...

What was their problem?

They told me that they were going to
dethrone our Sultan.

Who would be the successor?
Did they tell you that, too?

Prince Mehmet.

-Are you sure?
-I'm sure, I swear to God!

Okay then.

Since you're swearing to God,
you must be telling the truth.

Prince Mehmet has got nothing to do
with the incident.

How do you know that?
You weren't even there.

Why is Prince Mehmet
your patron?

He's been very good to me, Kadi.

-Anything else you'd like to say?
-Yes, sir.

The Prince Mehmet I know,
would never riot against his state.

He would behead the ones
who'd attempt such a thing.

Understood. You're dismissed.

Kadi?

I have another witness.

Let's hear from him.

Efendi!

Continue your chatter outside.

In my courtroom,
you concentrate on the case.

If you have something to say,
say it to me.

I have something to say, Kadi.

You're dismissed.

The payroll of Hüsrev Pasha,
one of the ringleaders of the riot.

With a salary like his, no one can buy
a ranch like that,

let alone even three sheep
from that ranch.

Maybe he comes from a rich family.

We've thought about it
and investigated.

-Result?
-It is out of the question.

He was an orphan,

one of the orphans brought up
by the Poor House Foundation.

So?

I'm one of the orphans brought up
by the Poor House Foundation.

What does that have to do with anything?

He made a living with the help of
the Poor House Foundation.

Therefore, it's impossible that he had
saved that much money.

Maybe he borrowed some money
from a friend.

Or maybe he inherited some money
from a distant relative.

I assure you that we've investigated
them all, Kadi.

However, the real disturbing
thing is that:

Hüsrev Pasha bought the land
just 10 days ago.

Are you happy with your new ranch?

I appreciate it, Mr. Boris.
You're too generous.

-It's a great gift, thank you.
-Fine.

So, you deem this as bribery
for the riot, is that so?

Wouldn't you deem it so, Kadi?

The only thing I can see here,
Filinta Mustafa, is that

apart from your verbal statement,
you've handed in

this nondescript payroll
to the court.

On the other hand, we have a military riot
which caused our precious Davut Pasha

to become a martyr.

And everyone who was involved in this
riot, all utter the same name:

-Prince Mehmet.
-Prince Mehmet.

Prince Mehmet.

My dear sir, don't beat yourself up.

You've done the right thing by referring
this incident to the Kadi.

Being a ruler requires such an act.

The thing that makes me sad, my love...

The very thing
that makes me sad is that

if what's been told about Mehmet is true,

it would mean that I’ve done a
terrible job bringing him up.

That's what makes me sad.

They say, you plant the sapling,
you give it life and wait.

The soil takes care of the rest.

You planted that tree in Ottoman soil.
Do not forget that.

That soil never betrays the hand that
plants the tree.

And that tree would never
betray the soil.

You planted that tree. You planted it in
Ottoman soil and you gave it life.

Mehmet knows this well, too.

I hope so, my love.

Verdict.

-Kadi Efendi?
-Enough! That's enough.

Upon hearing the witnesses and

examining the evidence
submitted to me,

the verdict is as follows:

We're recusing and challenging the Kadi.

We're submitting a petition for you
to be recused.

-Efendi!
-He's causing trouble.

He must be one of them.

Efendi! What do you think you're doing?
Stop! I'm talking to you!

Make way! Come on!
Don't make things more difficult.

We predict there might be some
problems on the way,

that's why we
always have backup plans.

Just like we predicted that Boris
Zaharyas would be able to

fool his executioners,
despite the power of the Council.

The Prince must die, Efendi Cemil.

-How?
-And this mission must be executed,

as always, by others.

And this death should not be
an ordinary murder case,

but should yield
serious political outcomes.

If we kill the Prince,
he'll become a hero.

However, if he's killed by a subject
close to the Ottoman Empire,

he'll be deemed as impure.

That's why we should not be
the murderer, but the agitator.

Bravo, Efendi Cemil. It's impossible
not to admire your brilliance.

The Kadi wants to believe in what he sees.

And it looks as if I was the leader of
the riot.

Any other Kadi would consider the
possibility of bribery.

However, this one didn't even
think about it.

As he told us, he was also raised by the
Poor House Foundation.

And that arouses suspicion.

They don't only train warriors in the
monastery.

They train kids for important positions
the best they can.

They can train them to become officials,
doctors, artisans, guards, informers

or even a Kadi to suit their own agenda.

Then Kadis work for them, too.

Boo! Execute the Prince!
