FILINTA
AT THE DAWN OF 1000 YEARS

Sureyya.

My son!



Ali.

Move! What are you waiting for?

Let's go. Let's go.

Come on, move!

Come on!

It is very crowded here.

Don't babble, you dumb head! Get inside!

-What did I do?
-Come on, move!

Can I have a clean towel, please?

A towel.

Don't you have any?

Sit down.

Any news from Ali?

There's none, Chief.



May God accept your prayers, my Sultan.

May he accept all prayers, my Pir.

I come to this lodge of Okcular

whenever I am in trouble,
and need to calm my mind.

This lodge that was founded
by my kin Mehmed the Conqueror Khan

may he rest in peace, has always
given me confidence and peace.

This peace is nearly 400 years old.

We owe this peace to the far-sightedness
of our ancestor Sultan Mehmed Han

who bestowed this city of Istanbul
to the Ummah of Muhammad.

Founding such a lodge

even before the martyrs of conquest's
blood dry out is so far-sighted.

May God destine us to be worthy of it.

Amen, my Sultan.

Archers have grown in this lodge
for hundreds of years.

Those archers are the ones who carry
Ummah's army from one range to another.

Ummah is always ready for the range

just like the stretched bow
of Sa'd ibn Abi Waqqas, my Sultan.

Thank God.

The lodge has been boiling its soup
for hundreds of years including today.

Praise God who destines
us to gather our spice

from seven continents and seven climates.

Praise God, my Sheikh.

Amen, my Sultan.

I would like to discuss our politics
on the Islamic world, my Sheikh.

What are your thoughts?

My Sultan, your ascension to the throne

gave birth to great hopes
in Islamic world.

We are receiving such enthusiastic letters
and news from Muslim world

ranging from India and the Afghan realm
to North and South Africa.

This is the proof of our condition.

May God be pleased with all of them.

Hopefully, we shall be worthy of them.

Amen, my Sultan.

Protecting the Islamic world is our duty
as the authority of Caliphate.

Take a look at the lands
in which Muslims live,

ranging from Mecca to Madinah
from Damascus to Tripoli and Egypt.

The Ottoman Empire's mark can be found
in all monuments that you can see.

Yes, my Sheikh and we must add new ones.

But it is difficult to stop
the setting sun of the Ottoman Empire.

You have spoken the truth.

We may enter a long dark period.

For this reason, we must
make serious preparations

and fortifications in the Islamic World.

What are the ideas
on your horizon, my Sultan?

Just as my kin Mehmed the Conqueror,
may he rest in peace

did not only think for the present
but also for the future when he founded

the lodge of Okcular, we must plant the
seeds that shall bloom in the future.

We overcame everyone
by making an awesome plan

thanks to your hearing
Mustafa's conversation, Leyla.

You did a great job.

Thank you, Supreme Master.

I started to get rid of all my enemies
one by one thanks to you.

Now we are commencing our last
and most important plan.

We will get rid of both Akbar and
the Sultan at the end of this plan.

How will you do it, Supreme Master?

Here is the deal, Leyla.

Lots of Akbar's men were captured
after the game I organized last night.

Efendi Akbar.

Yes.

Mustafa and his crew captured our men.

All of them?

All of them but Sahin, including Garbis.

According to Sahin, Milos was prepared
when his place was raided.

I think Mustafa and Milos
are collaborating.

In this case Abdulhamid
knows about it too.

So what?

So, we were trapped.

Good.

Good.

Shall we play chess?

I said chess. Shall we play chess?

He already tried enthroning
Shahzada Murat once.

Yes, but this is Akbar.
He will try it once again.

I have been told about his plans.

What is your plan, Supreme Master?

I don't need to make any plans, Leyla.

The only thing I need to do is

inform Sultan Hamid's men about

when Akbar's men will try
to take Shahzada Murat.

What about Sultan Abdulhamid?

What will you do to get rid of him?

It is a secret, Leyla. Only I know it.

Now I want you to go home.

Go home and spend some time.

Then tell the nanny that you need to see
a patient outside Istanbul.

Then leave the house and come back to me.

Efendi?

Don't ask anything, just do as I say.

As you command, Efendi.

My last and biggest plan
will sadden you a little bit, Leyla.

Because at the end of my plan,

Mustafa will die along with the Sultan.

That is why I can't tell you about it.

No news from Ali yet?

No, Chief.

-Start interrogating them.
-As you command.

Ahmet.

Go to Hamdi Agha.

And tell him that
I am concerned about Ali.

Tell him to start looking for him.

As you command.

We consider Chief Mustafa's request
as an order.

If he did not go under the earth,
we will find Blade Ali.

Don't worry.

Many thanks, Hamdi Agha.

Farewell, brother Ahmed.
I will inform you.

You heard brother Ahmed.
-We did.

Then we must find Blade Ali immediately.

Either you tell us everything
or you don't ever leave here, Ejder.

Get me Mustafa, I'll only talk to him.

He has a message from Milos.

Inform Chief Mustafa.

And...

...an hourglass.

I want an hourglass.

I smell something bad
about Ali's disappearance.

He would surely inform us.

Something else is going on, Bekri.

-Chief Mustafa.
-Ethem Efendi.

-We're interrogating Galip and Ejder.
-So?

Ejder wants to talk to you personally.

Why is that?

-He has a message from Milos for you.
-Let's go.

I'm here Ejder, tell me.

Just you and me. They must leave.

Leave.

Chief.

Just leave.

Yes.

Tell me now.

Ali.

Milos!

Where have you brought us?

I'm right in front of you.

Take it out.

Let me tell you the situation you're in.

That weight tied to this rope
that you're hold holding

is connected to the trigger
of that bomb ever there.

My Sureyya!

Don't waste your breath, Ali.

Sureyya's mouth is sealed.

She can hear you but can't answer.

Whenever your arm gets tired
and you lower it

this rope will pull that bomb's trigger
and it will detonate, Ali.

Milos.

I swear to God I'm going to kill you.

I'm going to butcher you.

Judging by your situation,

your promises do not mean anything, Ali.

I wish you luck, Ali.

Yes.

I'm listening.

The hourglass first.

What mysterious fellows you are.

There you go.

Sureyya's and your baby's life
is in your hands, Ali.

You'll kill the Sultan until that
hourglass is emptied,

or Ali, Sureyya and the baby dies.

Now I'm leaving.
I'll bring a new guest for you.

Milos!

Milos!

You devil!

There's Farah too,
she'll die the same way.

Your father taught you well, obviously.

But he didn't teach you well
about who I am.

I know it hurts. It hurts.

It hurts, yes. It hurts.

It hurts! It hurts, look! It hurts!

We'll have troubles with you, Ejder.

We'll have troubles.

I'm telling you again.

You'll kill the Sultan until
the hourglass is emptied,

or Ali, Sureyya and the baby dies.

There's a bomb planted on Ali.
They're running out of time.

My Mustafa Giyaseddin!

Your daddy is here!

I'm here, my lion!

I won't let go even if my hands
turn into stone, my son!

Your daddy will save you.

Daddy will save you, my lion.

My Sureyya, you are the wife of Blade Ali,

patriot of Great Khan
and the Ottoman Empire.

Be proud!

Be proud, my Sureyya.

Milos!

Farah!

Come.

I congratulate you, Farah.

You turned out more useful than I thought.

Yes, speak.

But if you kill me

you can't find out
Milos's other conditions.

He knew it.

Milos knew all along that Farah
was working for you.

I knew it all along.

You acted great, really.

I congratulate both you and Mustafa.

I asked you to bomb a hospital
that Ghazis were in.

It was so flagrant and contemptible

but you accepted without even thinking.

I had to put a Ghazi inside the hospital
to find out if you were working for him.

So I did.

There's a new Ghazi, doctor. Here.

-Get well soon, soldier.
-Thank you.

So I put my mole into the hospital.

The day after that
you implemented your plan.

Empty the room!
Take the Ghazis out immediately!

Be careful.

Farah is working with Mustafa
as you presumed.

They emptied the ward today.

I knew it all along.

Time is running out, Mustafa.

Either you save Ali, Sureyya,
the baby and Farah,

or your Sultan.

Keep going, Ejder. Keep going.

You'll set my friends free too.

I will. I will set you all free.

Chief!

Our Sultan is here.

Wait here, I'll be back.
It's not over yet.

So, Ali.

Weren't you supposed to
escape and kill me?

From what I see, your arms are
already tired.

Milos,

these arms never get tired.

Surely, I am going to kill you.

Farah,

did you hear Ali?

He's going to escape and kill me.

He is telling the truth.

-My sister...
-Ali.

Don't worry.

That's your secret.

Being so sure about yourselves
even in this situation

is remarkable, bravo.

Mustafa,

I congratulate you.

You have captured many members of the
brotherhood.

Ali, Sureyya and the baby will die.

You'll kill the Sultan by the time
the hourglass is empty

or Ali, Sureyya and the baby will die.

This country shall not collapse long as
it has devoted heroes like you.

Thank you, my Sultan.

I am proud of you.

Not only myself

but all of our martyrs and ancestors
must be proud of you, too.

It must be our fate to meet like this.

My Nihan was very fond of this place too.

It's all my fault.

I left my Nihan alone with
that ignoble Akbar

and when he saw the opportunity...
-He killed the poor girl.

We loved each other so much.

We were going to marry each other.

Akbar and his likes
have got a clear conscience

because they don't ever use
what we call conscience.

As for you,

yes you fell awfully and you are right.

This wound is hard to heal.

You will feel her in every breath
you take.

That means you are a good person.

Good and conscientious.

Come in!

Mithat Pasha and Serasker Pasha
are here, my Sultan.

Let them in.

You summoned us, my Sultan.

Pashas.

We have matters to discuss.

Sultan Hamid shows us that he shall not
implement the conference decisions

with his last maneuver.

You are right.

He thinks he is going to lock us down
by declaring a constitutional monarchy.

-True.
-But that will not be the case.

We must pressure the Ottomans
and Sultan Hamid to implement

the conference decisions
as we agreed before.

We must, Mr. Chairman.

We must but

I do not think Sultan Hamid
would back down.

What is his purpose?

His purpose is to buy some time.

He is trying to buy time to prepare
the Ottoman army for the war.

We got what we desired
from the conference.

We prevented any implementation
of the conference decisions

by declaring a constitutional monarchy.

It was a very sound decision, my Sultan.

Let the preparations start.

As you command, my Sultan.

By the way, we are to continue
German politics.

The Russians and the English should think
that we made a deal with the Germans.

Exactly, Mithat Pasha.

That is a great move, my Sultan.

This may even cause the Russians
to renounce any war.

Let the dogs fight each other.

May God grant us power to drown them
in their own ill intentions.

If God permits, my Sultan.

Adjutant!

Yes, my Sultan.

I want to see the German Ambassador
in my presence in an hour.

As you command, my Sultan.

You'll kill the Sultan by the time
that hourglass is empty

or Ali, Sureyya and the baby die.

Captain!

Captain Mustafa!

Now we are commencing our last
and the biggest plan.

What is your plan, Supreme Master?

It's a secret, Leyla.

No one but me knows it.

Now I want you to go home.

-Leyla
-Nanny.

Where are you going, my girl?

Tell nanny that you need to see a patient
outside Istanbul.

I'm going to see a patient
outside Istanbul, nanny.

Good thing you asked.
Tell Mustafa if he arrives earlier.

So where are you going, my girl?
Who is this patient?

Then leave the house and
come back to me immediately.

You wouldn't know him, nanny.

At the end of this plan,
we get rid of the Sultan.

Nanny, where is Leyla?

-She left, Mustafa.
-Where did she go?

She told me she was leaving
for a patient outside Istanbul.

When did she leave, nanny?

Couple of minutes ago.

Mustafa!

Where have you been, Master Milos?

Pardon me, sister.

I left the house so urgently.
Wouldn't Mustafa be suspicious, Master?

No he wouldn't Leyla,
because you are a physician,

you may be needed at any moment.

Poor girl, Mustafa is already suspicious.

He knows that you are my informant.

He was going to force you to tell him

where I hid Farah, Ali and Sureyya.

That's why you needed to be
away from home, Leyla.

Don't worry, Mustafa is not
suspicious of you.

Adjutant,

why is the German Ambassador
not here yet?

We have informed him, he shall surely
be here any moment now.

You may leave.

As we discussed, Pashas.

I shall tell the German Ambassador that

our government shall do everything
to become allies with Germany.

Thus, both the Germans, the English
and Russians shall believe it.

My Sureyya,

my ocean-eyed wife.

Don't be scared.

I wouldn't let go if it even if
my arms turn into stone.

I won't let go.

Don't be scared.

My Mustafa.

My Mustafa Giyaseddin.

My lion, don't be scared either.

Your uncle,

your namesake will save us.

He'll save us, my son.

He'll save us.

He'll save us.

He'll save us.

I grew up without a mother or father,
Ejder.

Just like you.

I never knew who I was.

I spent years trying to find out

who they were,
let alone ever touching them.

Then a man found me.

I was favored by God.

He taught me to love.

He taught me to be just.

He taught me to be a human.

Zozan, Farah,

they all fight on our side for the justice
we know.

You know that, too.

What do you think is the reason?

For this, you must give me what I want.

Where is Milos hiding?

I don't know.

It's impossible for Mustafa
to find this place, Leyla.

Only you and I know about this place.
Thus you must be careful coming here.

You were deceived for a lie.

Do you understand?

All of you were kidnapped!

You were left orphans!

That man Kenan Milos,

stole your childhood from you!

He stole your memories.

You have killed many men, right Ejder?

But why?

Now, you answer me.

Where is Kenan Milos?

Where is Ali?

Where is Sureyya?

I don't know.

Your heart knows

but you don't know it yet.

Don't worry, you'll find out.

Ambassador Efendi,

of course we are ready to play our part
in an alliance with Germany.

Your faith in our country gladdens us,
Your Majesty.

Do you know why we have faith
in Germany, Ambassador?

Well... Sir...

I am sure you know that international
relationships are based upon interests

and not upon faith.
-Yes, Sir.

However,

there is an exceptional matter
in our relationship with Germany.

What is it, sir?

You depend on us and we depend on you.

Yes,

we understood that
we must be allies with you.

Have you understood
that you must be allies with us, too?

Sir, I mean...

Understand it, Ambassador Efendi

and help others do it, too.

Our ancestors had a saying,

"Too many cooks spoil the stew."

So?

So, there are many cooks in Europe.

That is why your stew is spoiled.

I don't think you can be allies with the
Russians, the French and the English.

You are right, sir.

In fact you may have a world war

with these countries within 20 years.

Deliver what we discussed here
to your government.

Tell them Sultan Abdulhamid cares about
non-colonialist Germany's friendship

against colonialist states.

Don't worry, I'll inform
my government right away, Your Majesty.

Is there any news, adjutant?

No, Sir Ambassador, there is not.

The latest news is
that the Germans are proposing

a collaboration in every field
with the Ottomans.

We must find out for sure if the Germans
and the Ottomans have made a deal.

Because that information shall be
decisive regarding our collaboration

with the Russians.

You are right, Sir Ambassador.

Are they fools, Edgar?

Who, Your Majesty?

I am talking about some fool members
in the House of Commons who do not

have any idea about the consequences
of an Ottoman-German alliance, Edgar.

We can never fully trust the English.

The Ottomans' efforts to put the Germans
into play is not good for us.

In that case, it would cause us

much trouble if the Germans actively
support the Ottomans during a war.

You are right, that is why we must be sure

whether the Ottomans and
Germans have made a deal.

Your Majesty, your anticipations
were shown to be correct.

Bismarck is looking for trouble
by siding with the Ottomans.

At this rate, he shall find it soon.

The intelligence is not certain, sir.

Intelligence shows what is there Mikhail,

not what is to happen.

I do not understand, sir.

The Germans have developed rapidly.

Beating Napoleon at Sedan
was a turning point for them.

They are building a very strong army.

If you start building a strong army,
then you surely want to test it somewhere.

I understand, sir, but why would they
side with the Ottomans against us?

Abdulhamid's genius.

Sir, how may he have convinced
the Germans?

Abdulhamid tells Germany that if they
do not side with us,

they cannot have a place at the table
neither in the Middle East nor in Asia.

You'll kill the Sultan by the time
that hourglass is empty

or Ali, Sureyya and the baby die.

Mustafa,

you've been through so much with Ali,
you'll get through this too.

We don't have time, Abdullah.

Let's think.

Let's think then.

Where could Milos hide Ali?

There are thousands of places in Istanbul.

It's like a needle in the haystack.

Yes, well, maybe we can offer
Milos something in return for Ali.

You cannot sell anything to the devil.

Right.

My Sureyya,

don't be scared.

I'm not a bit tired. Don't be scared.

My Mustafa,

My Mustafa Giyaseddin.

Don't cry, my lion.

Don't cry.

My Mustafa.

Sleep, my lion.

Sleep.

My God, give me power.

My God,

give me power.

DOLMABAHCE PALACE

Come in!

My Sultan,

-Yes?
-Sheikh Ahmed Efendi is here.

Don't make him wait.

-Peace be upon you.
-And peace be upon you, my Sheikh.

Welcome

My Sultan,

how was your meeting
with the German Ambassador?

Exactly as we spoke, my Sheikh.

The English and the Russians think
that we made a deal with the Germans.

What is more important is that the Germans
also think that we made a deal with them.

BERLIN PALACE

Your Majesty, apparently Sultan Abdulhamid
is ready to do everything to gain

our support against the Russians.

Our nation must not miss this opportunity.

What do you propose, Chancellor Bismarck?

Your Majesty,
we must not conflict with the Russians

but we must tell them that they cannot
do anything without asking us first.

So?

If you permit, I think we must propose
to discuss the matter of Serbia

once more in a conference
that shall be held in Berlin.

A good move, Chancellor Bismarck.
A good move.

My God, what am I to do?

What kind of a test is this?

How can I take our Sultan's life?

I must find a way to solve this

without harming our Sultan

or our nation and people.

The hourglass is getting emptier Ali.

If Mustafa does not do as he is told

you all are going to die along with
this innocent baby here.

Maybe Mustafa walks in in a few minutes.

For us.

What's going on? Who's there?

The test before Mustafa
is too difficult this time, Ali.

Because I asked the Sultan's life
in return for your lives.

What?

Forgive me, my brother.

Now you'll take me where Farah,
Ali, Sureyya and Milos are.

Buggy.

Buggy.

Nice buggy.

Little buggy.

Pretty buggy. Come here.

You can't get away with this so easily,
Filinta Mustafa.

-You'll take me there.
-The game has just started.

If you want to see the woman you love
and your friends again

you'll kill the Sultan.

If you try to stop me or my friends
while getting out of here,

they all die.

Let it go, Ali.

Relax.

Because you'll need them soon again.

Mustafa has executed my first order.

He released Ejder by harming his own men.

Thus your lives are extended as much as
this hourglass here, Ali.

I swear I heard it
with my own ears, my Sultan.

He mentioned killing you.

My Sultan, I struggled to believe

what I heard at first too,
but I swear I heard it myself!

Mustafa mentioned killing you.

Soldier!

I swear to God, my Sultan I'm not lying.

I heard it myself!
He mentioned killing you!

I swear to God I'm not lying.

Take this man
and make him pay for his lies.

My Sultan, I swear I'm not lying!
I'm telling the truth!

He is planning to kill you!

Have you eaten onions?

Brother.

Brother.

What is it? What do you want?

I'm going to tell you important things.

Go back to your cell.

You'll talk about important things
with my chiefs instead of me.

So you trust your captains that much.

What are you trying to say, you demon?

Demon.

Demon.

Look, sometimes nothing is as it seems.

I mean your captains may not be

who you think they are.

Now,

open your ears and listen to me well.

You are still scouting
Akbar's place, aren't you?

Yes, Master Milos. As you commanded.

We have been watching them
since last night.

Good.

If there's any movement,
let me know immediately.

Because they'll soon make their move
to kidnap Shahzada Murad.

As you command.

-Master Milos, Mrs. Serzan is here.
-Let her in.

Welcome Serzan.

Thank you, Master Milos.

I have very good news for you, Serzan.

I'm looking forward to hear it.

We were right about our doubts, Cemil.

Milos the ignoble made a deal

with Mustafa and the Sultan
to wipe me out.

-Yes, Master Akbar.
-But their plans are in vain.

We must kidnap Shahzada Murad from
Ciragan Palace as soon as possible.

Thus we dethrone Sultan Hamid

and enthrone Shahzada Murad again.

Exactly.

Exactly.

Get ready, Serzan. Just as I told you.

We make our move to kidnap Shahzada
from Ciragan Palace tomorrow

and we dethrone Sultan Hamid

and enthrone our Shahzada again.

Mr. Milos, my last visit
was quite a disappointment.

I hope this time it shall not reoccur.

I was not behind that, Serzan.

There were amateurs in play.

This time my organizations is behind
all of it, the Brotherhood.

Akbar Eyyam is my closest man, my friend.

Don't worry Serzan,

this time we'll rescue our Shahzada.

Alright.

Then I'll be waiting to hear from you.

Send our regards to the Shahzada.

As you command.

Good, deceiving Serzan
was the easiest thing, as always.

What are you doing, sister?

Don't do it, Leyla.

Leyla!

Leyla!

I beg you!

Don't do it, Leyla!

Don't do it!

Leyla, don't do it.

For God's sake.

Don't!

Don't do it.

Leyla don't do it!

Don't do it, sister!

I beg you!

Don't do it Leyla!

Don't!

Don't!

We should hurry up
with this matter, Monsieur Scalieri.

Of course, but to accomplish this
we would need a good plan, Master Akbar.

No need to take precautions, Monsieur.

Why?

Because it will be easier
than you expected.

Okay?

Okay.

Thank you very much, Monsieur Scalieri.

Redif Pasha,

we need to kidnap Shahzada Murad tonight.

Thus, you need to arrange
the guarding soldiers at Ciragan Palace.

Don't worry.

There will be soldiers
at your disposal at the palace tonight.

Then I must finish
the other preparations swiftly.

I'll be waiting to hear from you, Pasha.

I'll inform you in couple of hours.

Captain,

unfortunately our guardians
could not stop them.

There was only one person
according to

what they say
but I don't think that's possible.

It's impossible.

Only Captain Mustafa could enter
such a well-guarded place

but we know that's not the case so

Who's there?

Sorry brother.

There was more than one person.

True, there must have been many of them.

Captain Mustafa.

Our Sultan awaits you.

Let's go.

I met with Redif Pasha, Master Akbar.

He's going to arrange
the guardian soldiers for us tonight.

Master Cemil, please.

Tonight, we shall move together.

No one shall disobey my orders.

There will be many soldiers
at our disposal at Ciragan Palace.

After kidnapping Shahzada Murad

we shall take him to Eyup Sultan Mosque
and pledge our loyalty to him.

We shall enthrone Shahzada Murad again.

Your Majesty,

I am here on behalf of my government
to warn you for one last time.

Warn me?

Chairman!

Notice whose presence you are in!

You stand before the Great Padishah!

Watch your language!

Sultan, Your Highness

I am to deliver you the message
that you must obey the decisions made

at the conference.

Or else

Or else what, Mr. Chairman?

Or else

the inevitable must occur, Your Majesty.

Are you threatening us with war?

Well, this

the war becomes inevitable
in this situation, Your Majesty.

The meeting is over, you may leave.

Are you dismissing me from your presence?

Yes!

I am dismissing you!

If you do not leave now,
I may do worse things.

Get out.

Out.

Filinta Mustafa is here, my Sultan.

Let him in.

How could you let the men you
captured just yesterday escape?

You are right to say anything, my Sultan.

Find those responsible and have no mercy.

I want the guarding
soldiers to be punished.

As you command, my Sultan.

Mustafa must do exactly as we say,
Supreme Master.

I know Ejder.

No one can stand before us this time.

Mustafa must do as we say
whether he likes it or not.

Did you understand what I'm saying,
Mustafa?

I understood, my Sultan.

Those who are responsible
shall be punished.

As you command, my Sultan.

You may leave now.

GERMAN EMBASSY

Come in!

Sir Ambassador.

Yes.

The English Ambassador is here.
He desires to meet you.

-Let him in.
-At once.

-Welcome, Sir Henry.
-Thank you.

Dear friends,

I don't know how to put this but

I must remove you from duty
because you couldn't prevent

Milos's men from escaping.

Leave your weapons, fellows.

Captain, this is for you.

We are running out of patience, Mustafa.
You are running out of time.

Either you kill the Sultan as we told you
or you never see Farah or Ali again.

Obviously you will not succeed
in killing the Sultan.

Therefore, come to
the Eastern Masons Lodge

in order learn how to
do that within two hours.

It is a big mistake that you are
supporting the Ottomans on this matter.

This is your idea, sir Henry.

You would lose a friend such as Britain
at the cost of supporting the Ottomans.

Moreover you will take on the
Russian Tzardom.

We fear no one, Mr. Ambassador.

Germany has the power to deal
with its enemies all over the world.

You are betting on a wrong horse.

It's you, the British who bet
on horses, Mr. Ambassador.

Our point of view is crystal clear.

If a Russian Ottoman war breaks out

we shall grant assistance
to the Ottomans by all means

in order to stop your
and the Russians' imperial goals.

The bandit called Garbis who was
captured in yesterday's operation

says Mustafa broke Ejder
and the others out, my Sultan.

A few hours ago an Imam
and now one of the bandits.

I guess I'm not being clear enough.

We are losing time in vain here.

I have said it many times,
I will say it once again.

He came by midnight.
His face was covered.

but I recognized him from their
conversations. It was Mustafa.

I am sure it was him.

He took Ejder and his friends
out of the cell.

Mustafa told Ejder to take him to Milos.

I was in the next cell.
I heard everything that happened.

They made a deal.

I mean look, our Sultan
is in great danger.

How could this happen?

-Peace be upon you.
-And peace be upon you.

He warmed us with his divine light.
Praise be.

Peace be upon you.

-And peace be upon you.
-Is our Pir available?

Yes, he is.

Have Mustafa followed immediately.

-My Sultan.
-Immediately!

As you command, my Sultan.

My Pir.

Come in, Mustafa.

Tell me now.

Come in.

Mithat Pasha and Seraskier Pasha
are here, my Sultan.

Let them in.

Here is the conclusion of the meeting
that I had with the German Ambassador.

-Did you write it down?
-Yes I did, sir.

It appears to be that the Germans
and the Sultan of Ottomans

certainly came to an agreement.

I believe a review of our politics
according to these circumstances

would be necessary.
Yours sincerely.

You may send it.

As you command, Mr. Ambassador.

Unfortunately, Sultan Abdulhamid
dismissed our ambassador

from his presence by
disregarding all diplomatic rules.

-Was he dismissed from his presence?
-How could he dare to do this?

Gentlemen

as you may understand
from this attitude

the Ottoman Empire certainly seems to
have an agreement with the Germans.

The English and the Russians believe
that the Germans are cooperating with us.

You are right, my Sultan.

We may use this as an opportunity

and start negotiating with the English.

Not us but the English should
dissuade the Russians from war.

As you command, my Sultan.

CIRAGAN PALACE

They will come to take us
when the sun sets.

In order to enthrone you again.

Doesn't the throne already belong to me?

My brother usurped what belonged to me.
Which is mine.

You are right.

He usurped what is yours.

He accused me of being sick

but I am not sick, am I?

Am I Serzan?

I am not sick, Serzan.
I am not sick, am I?

No, you are not.

You are a great Sultan.

What if they want to kill me?

What if it is a trap?

What if it is a trap?

I don't want to ascend the throne.

I don't want to ascend the throne.

I am good here.

-I am a sick person, Serzan.
-No.

I am sick. I am not well.

-I am sick.
-My Sultan.

I want to stay here.
I don't want to ascend the throne.

-Leave.
-No.

Leave, Serzan.

Leave. Serzan.

Leave!

Leave!

Leave!

I am not well. I am a sick person.

I am sick.

I am sick.

Here is safer than the Mason Lodge.

You will all act together by night.

As you command, Efendi Akbar.

Mithat Pasha secretly
went to the English Embassy.

This means they are unofficially
trying to negotiate with the English.

This is why we must hurry up.

You are right, Mr. Ambassador.

Our ship is leaving in two hours.
I wish you success in your duty.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

Try to be on good terms with the English
until the Ambassador heals completely.

As you command, Mr. Chairman.

The support you gave to the Russians
in the Shipyard Conference

has deeply saddened us,
Mr. Ambassador.

We care about our interests
not the Russians', Mithat Pasha.

We don't quite think so.

I don't understand.

Are you trying to imply
that we don't know our own interests?

I don't imply, Mr. Ambassador.

I allege.

You are giving up on our
long term friendship for your

short term interests.

We are not giving up on you, my Pasha.

Yes, you are, Mr. Ambassador.

Yes, you are.

We have to care about our interests,
in these conditions.

In other words?

In other words, Mr. Ambassador

our Sultan started meeting
with the German government

because of your current position.

You can't get along with the Germans,
my Pasha.

Yes, we can, Mr. Ambassador.

Yes, we can.

We can do everything with the Germans
that we couldn't do with you.

The German government agreed to
all of our Sultan's demands

while you are supporting the Russians.

Why are you telling me
all of this, my Pasha?

I am telling you all of this because

I want to prevent your government
from making a big mistake.

What mistake?

Look, Mr. Ambassador

depending on the constitutionalism ideal
I possess and my political view,

I believe that
the friendship of the Ottoman and

English governments is more important

and valuable than a friendship
that'll be built with the Germans.

I absolutely agree with your opinion.

Look, Mr. Ambassador.

We have been allies for a long time.

This meeting takes place
without our Sultan's knowledge.

If you turn your back against us

forming an alliance
with the Germans becomes a necessity.

I plead to your government
to review this condition one more time.

It is the Mason Lodge, isn't it?

-Yes, it is.
-Inform the palace immediately.

We have been waiting for you,
Filinta Mustafa.

What do you want?

What do we want?

Actually, we called you here
to give you something.

A gift.

Efendi Milos wanted to give you a gift

in order to be sure
that you will kill the Sultan.

An option.

Would you rather save Sureyya
or her baby, if you had an option?

Yes, I am waiting for your answer.

Which one do you want?

Which one would you rather save?

You can save whichever you want.

But there is something we need you to do.

What is it?

We want you to take a masonic oath.

No.

We know you, Filinta Mustafa.

We are sure that you will do it
for a human's, a baby's life.

I don't take an oath
for something I don't believe in.

What good would that provide you?

Who knows

maybe you will believe, Mustafa.

You take the oath, save a person

maybe we can save you, too.

BRITISH EMBASSY

No matter how much Mithat Pasha said

that the Sultan doesn't know
about the meeting

he wouldn't come here
without consulting the Sultan.

Under these conditions, Mithat Pasha's
offer is unofficially Ottoman's

in other words it is the Sultan's offer.

Yes.

The Sultan says "United Kingdom,
don't make us form

a friendship with the Germans.
We want to remain friends with you

if you say that you are on our side

we will cut our link with the Germans."

We are supposed to comprehend this meeting
accordingly aren't we, Mr. Ambassador.

Absolutely.

I went to the English Embassy
as you commanded, my Sultan.

That's good.

I said "I am here without
my Sultan's knowledge."

during my meeting
with the English Ambassador.

I said "If you offer your friendship,
we won't turn it down."

In that case, the English must think
that we made a deal with the Germans.

The Russians think so as well.

The Germans think that they can get
the compromises they want.

That's correct, my Sultan.

But we have made a deal
with neither of them.

But neither the English nor the Russians
nor the Germans know about this.

You are right, my Sultan.

In that case we can stop
the Russians for a while

without making compromises with anyone.

We let the Germans know that we
had a meeting with the English, my Sultan.

That's good.

Come in.

My Sultan.

Are you sure?

Yes, I am, my Sultan.

Where are you taking my son?

Where are you taking him?

Where are you taking him?

Milos!

Leave him.

Leave my son!

Milos!

We kept our word, Filinta Mustafa.

Now it is your turn.

We can start the ceremony
since the baby is here as well.

Hands up. Surrender, Mustafa.

Get in.

Soldier,

I need to see the Sultan.

Shut your mouth.

Soldier,

I said I need to see the Sultan.

And I said shut your mouth.

Let's go.

No, Pasha.

I don't want to see Mustafa.

I have seen enough.

As you command, my Sultan.

We are ready to leave, Efendi Akbar.

We are leaving.

We are starting, Efendi Akbar.

My Sultan, according to
an intelligence we received

there is going to be
a raid to Ciragan Palace

and Shahzada Murat will be taken.

Take all necessary measures.

As you command, my Sultan.

Serzan,

the first thing I'll do after
I ascend to the throne

will be to take revenge
on those who did this to me.

Then I will do

my best to make the treasury better.

I will try to serve my people.

You are very right, my Sultan.

You will be one of the greatest
Sultans of the Ottoman Empire.

I don't believe any of the rumors.

Chief Mustafa can't be a mason.

There must be something else going on.

According to what they say

Chief Mustafa will be
taken to court tomorrow

and will then be executed.

I didn't find my Chief on the road.

I won't let anyone hurt him. Just saying.

No, you won't. But what do we do?

We will save Mustafa from
the place he is being held.

He will explain everything and exonerate
himself then he will be saved.

How do we get him out of the dungeon?

How do we get him out of the dungeon?

I would like to say that

I have thought and planned a lot

but we are at the line
where wisdom ends.

We will prepare our weapons
and raid the cell.

We will either live or die

but we will save Mustafa in any case.

Alright. Good luck with that.

I can see no other way out.

Let's go. Don't lose time.

Welcome.

Thank you.

That's good.

-Mustafa.
-Abdullah?

Chief, don't worry.
We are here to save you.

Gentlemen, Chief.

Come in.

-My Sultan.
-Yes.

We captured those
who raided Ciragan Palace

and tried to break Shahzada Murat out.

Thank you, Adjutant.

May God grant you a good night, my Sultan.

The game is up, Akbar!
That's it, surrender!

Bravo, you played your role very well,
Efendi Cemil.

Thank you, Efendi Milos.

Poor Akbar, he came from the New World

and thought he could change
all the rules of the game.

However, the New World is a rookie
in these matters.

They have so much to learn.

Europe and Asia Minor are the cradle
of civilization.

It will be a long time before
the New World takes over power.

As you advised, I informed the soldiers
at the Ciragan Palace about the raid

and they prevented it.

Akbar is caught.

What about Mustafa?

Everything went according to your plan.

The Sultan thinks Mustafa
is working alongside the Masons.

I guess he'll be hanged tomorrow.

You're wrong about him, Efendi Cemil.

Am I?

Neither will Mustafa be hanged tomorrow
nor will the Sultan believe

that he joined the Masons.

You still have so much to learn.

Mustafa would never point a gun
at his Sultan.

He could sacrifice everything,
but he wouldn't point a gun

at his Sultan or at his country.

Yes, he hesitated for some time
trying to decide.

Finally he went to someone for help.

Peace be upon you, my Pir.

Come Mustafa, come.

And he told him everything.

His Pir probably told him this...

"What you should do
is to tell everything to the Sultan.

"We can overcome this only if you
two join your powers together."

Mustafa concurred with his Pir's
advice and told everything to the Sultan.

He wanted me to take your life.

Then the whole plan must be ruined.

No it is not, Cemil.

After Mustafa spoke to the Sultan,
they started to play a game.

They acted as if they were
carrying out my orders.

Surrender, Mustafa!

So, Mustafa was arrested, jailed
and then escaped in order to trick us?

Yes, it was all just a game, Cemil.

What was their purpose?

If Mustafa gets caught he can't save
Ali, Sureyya and Farah.

So their only purpose
was to buy some time.

Yes.

After Mustafa was jailed, his race
with time ended and they started

a new game.

What game?

They'll try to find Leyla
using the time they've bought

because Leyla is their only way.

Only if they found Leyla they could

save Farah, Ali and Sureyya.

But what did I do?

Whereas I, sent Leyla to the Sultan
while Mustafa and the Sultan

were looking for Leyla.

At the least expected time.

What are you doing in the palace
at this hour, Mrs. Leyla?

I need to see our Padishah.
It's urgent and very important.

I'll inform him.

Come in!

My Sultan,

Mrs. Leyla desires to see you immediately.

Show her in.

He awaits you.

Mrs. Leyla.

My Padishah.

I deeply apologize for disturbing you
so late.

I need to tell you something
very important.

I'm listening.

I could not tell you.

I had to keep it a secret.

I kept it from Mustafa.

I kept it from you.

I cannot bear it anymore.

I have to confess.

Mrs. Leyla,

please sit down.

What is the matter?

I cannot bear it anymore.

You have to know.

My Sultan,

forgive me.

Calm down.

Let me get you some water.

Leyla will get close to the Sultan
pretending to confess everything

in accordance with our plan.

She will poison the Sultan

with the needle on her ring.
