01x06 - The Turmoil That Is Life (Hayat Gürültüsü)

Post by bunniefuu »

MYSTERIOUS INCIDENT IN ADANA

It's another omen.

What did you expect?

No sign of any disease.

No stings or injuries.

All of them dead in an instant.

I know what I must do.

Maran?

Maran's still too weak. He's indisposed.

What stage is he at?

The worst one.

Forty-one.

Are you done with the Shahsu thing?

Oh no, I forgot.

I'll go and text her right away.

Go, go.

MARAN: I'M OUT OF TOWN FOR WORK

FOR A FEW DAYS. I'LL BE BUSY.

REMEMBER THAT NO MATTER WHERE I AM,

I'LL BE THERE WHEN YOU NEED ME

Salih?

Medine?

Ah, sh*t

- Salih?

- I forgot about you.

I'm sorry, Davut.

When did you return?

Huh?

You went to the uplands.

No.

Ah, you're talking

about Medine, aren't you?

I'm Shahsu.

I, uh

I have to go to the orchard.

Maran?

What are we gonna do about Shahsu?

My men are watching,

but someone needs to be with her.

My brother can't go anywhere.

He needs time to rest.

Shahsu needs a lot of protection,

that's for sure.

Cihan?

All right.

Maran is not gonna like this, you know.

Going somewhere?

I need a change of scenery, so I'm going

to the café to grade some papers.

By yourself?

I'm hurt. Hop on.

You've only just arrived, Cihan.

It's okay. I can go by myself.

Don't be silly.

It's out in the middle of nowhere.

And no woman should go alone.

- Oh, really?

- Hop on.

I know you want to.

It's safer to ride with me

than go by yourself.

What are you even?

Fine.

Cihan.

Not everything is Maran's to own.

Bring her to us.

Is this the place?

This is the real Adana.

You should see it. Is that okay?

What was the assignment you gave?

- What are you reading?

- About Shahmaran and her story.

And all of them failed, huh?

Yeah, you think, huh?

But most of them did a very good job.

Shahmaran ended up

being k*lled because of her love.

The guy she was madly in love with

betrays her or something like that.

But the queen of the serpents,

with her dying breath

bestows her wisdom

one final time on her lover.

And the students have brought up

some great questions

and thoughts about the story.

Like, "love requires sacrifice,"

and all that stuff.

Don't you believe in that?

Why is it always us that

have to make the sacrifice in the end?

Why is it always the women

in these famous stories and myths

that have to sacrifice themselves?

Why do we have to?

And what happened to him?

- Camsap.

- Mm-hmm.

Camsap regretted everything.

I guess he truly went mad with guilt.

He really shouldn't have

betrayed her, Cihan.

We don't know that.

Know what?

Well, perhaps

it's actually the betrayer

who's made the sacrifice.

For their shared love.

Hold on. I'll be right back

Excuse me.

I'd like a plain Turkish coffee, please.

I said I'd like a plain Turkish coffee.

Forgive me

Don't worry. It wasn't your fault.

Cihan.

Cihan? Cihan! That's enough!

What's wrong with you?

Maybe you should go.

SOMETHING MADE ME THINK OF YOU

Maran?

Maran?

Don't touch him.

- This happened at the worst time.

- Maran, are you in there?

I guess this one will

take longer than the others.

Maran?

Shahsu.

Maran, are you in there?

Are you sure she heard

the phone inside the house?

Yes, I'm sure she did.

When have we ever interfered like this?

This is exactly why we have to be careful.

I don't understand.

How could you text her

from Maran's cell phone?

I didn't want her to get suspicious.

Now she's gonna be even more suspicious!

I'm sure she's wondering

why he hasn't come out to see her.

Okay, fine. You're right.

It was a bad idea, but we thought

it would look suspicious for him to

vanish into thin air,

with no explanation at all.

We meant well by it.

Enough. Enough, please.

No one's gonna text anymore.

Do you understand?

Everything will play itself out.

No one is to interfere.

Understood?

I bought a moisture meter

for Musfik's orchard today.

But the irrigation pipes are too short.

I need another 100 meters.

I'll make a list, and we can go

and get it together tomorrow.

How does that sound?

You're back from the uplands already?

No, we're still there.

Don't worry. She's been cranky

since yesterday. Just ignore her.

Just nod "okay."

Stop. When did you fill that up?

- Hey, stop. What the hell are you doing?

- What the hell? What's with you?

Haven't you heard

about the damn cattle? Huh?

- You scared the living hell out of me.

- You gotta be careful

What's with the cattle?

They're all dead.

All of Ziya's cattle are dead.

They say it's an epidemic.

They're testing the water.

Everyone's warning against drinking

tap water. Haven't you heard about it?

They should shut it off. Why haven't they?

Why would they do that? They need

to run tests before shutting it down.

There was no water then, either.

On the day I left home.

Back then, we used to drink

tap water.

They would shut it down at night.

I had no idea why.

Daddy?

Where are you going?

I'll be back, Gül. Go to sleep.

I'll be back soon.

Come on, just go back home.

That was the last time I saw her.

This is great, thank you.

Medine? Medine!

I'm sick of this.

I'm out.

I'll leave with him.

I'm gonna get the hell out of here.

I'M IN, MARAN. I'LL COME WITH YOU

Medine doing okay?

She's all right.

She's resting now.

It's the water, I'm sure of it.

She don't listen to me. She never does.

Go and take her to a doctor, Salih.

Tell her that's what I said,

and she'll listen.

Sir.

What happened last night?

You never used to talk

about your daughter.

Are you all right, sir?

Huh?

Lately you've been acting strange.

Tell me what's wrong, Salih.

Let's finish with that tub.

I know that you're back home.

Though I wonder why you still

haven't returned any of my calls.

Anyway

I hope you're okay, and I'm really

starting to worry about you.

- Call me, please.

- Psst.

What are you up to?

Nothing. I just like to take

audible notes for myself.

That's cool.

I don't have class today. Wanna hang out?

I have to make it up to you.

- I'll take you to an amazing place, come

- Cihan! Cihan.

There's nothing you have

to make up for, please.

And, I have to work.

I don't feel like going anywhere.

Okay.

It's okay.

What's wrong?

Shahsu's been texting.

- There's nothing we can do.

- Leave it. Dad would k*ll us.

We can't do anything.

CLEARLY, SOMETHING HAPPENED.

OKAY, IT'S LIFE. JUST TELL ME WHAT IT IS

So I'm coming around a little fast

Shahsu, can we talk, please?

NEW TEX

ALL RECORDINGS

I'm sick of this.

I've had enough.

This shitty house,

this wretched town is making me sick.

I will leave.

I will leave with him.

I'm gonna get the hell out of here.

Maran is a good guy.

He must have his reasons.

Mmm.

Where's Maran?

- Would you like some milk?

- Tell me. Where is he?

He's not here.

Why in the world

would you care where Maran is?

What do you mean,

"Why do I care where Maran is?"

Milk?

You look worried.

She's worried.

Of course I'm worried.

What else would I be here for?

Beats me.

Believe me,

we don't really know where he is.

How can you possibly not know, huh?

Maran just vanished into thin air,

out of the blue, just like that?

He leaves abruptly,

and no one knows about it, is that it?

And you don't even care?

Tell me, why's his phone still here?

His phone's here? I didn't know.

So you really do like Maran, huh?

Yes. Obviously, I like him.

This isn't

your business.

I've been trying to call him for days.

Aren't you even a little bit worried?

Sure, we are worried.

But not the way you are, see?

How is my worry any different than yours?

You fell for him hard.

You fell real hard too.

Okay, I already know all about

the great big family feud of yours,

or whatever you want to call it.

Maran told me about it. All right?

Big family feud.

What family feud?

How is it you're all so calm?

Huh?

What if something happened to him?

He said he had to hide,

and you haven't been to school for days.

Tell me, please.

Is Maran in trouble or what?

Pessoa, the author.

Do you know him?

Once, he fell in love.

And they asked him

to describe how he felt.

He took a breath and said,

"There is a soothing agony in my heart."

Are you in agony, Shahsu?

All right.

I see what's going on here.

I can play this game with you.

And I can play very well.

We can size each other up,

hide secrets from each other,

intimidate one another.

We can cry, laugh,

whatever it is you want to do.

This is not a good time.

Let's not do this now.

And all that for Maran.

I kinda like her.

Dad is totally gonna k*ll us.

Sir!

Sir!

Sir!

Sir?

What's wrong?

We're pregnant, sir.

Medine is with child.

Oh!

May God give them health.

Thank you, sir.

Maran?

Cihan?

How did you find me?

I know, Shahsu.

I know about everything.

Do you want it all to end?

Come.

And how did you end up finding me?

Am I late?

I could never understand any of it.

What's with all this suffering for love?

All the drama.

For some reason love is measured

by the amount of pain you endure.

Is that really all there is?

Can you let yourself go, completely?

Can you accept it?

And in the beginning there are

all those big words and promises.

"I will love you as you are."

"Oh, I've never felt

this way with anyone before."

Not true.

People will never be absolutely happy.

The minute you say you're happy,

something inside you

starts sneaking around

or looking for problems,

and some fault in your lover.

You think you're changing.

But you start changing them.

- Cihan.

- And eventually, you screw it up.

Really think you'll find

what you're looking for, Shahsu?

Cihan.

Cihan, come on!

You're starting to scare me.

Do you want to perish

chasing after a shitty dream?

Cihan, stop what you're doing right now!

- Slow down!

- Does it scare you, Shahsu?

What's wrong with you?

Of course it does. Now, slow down, dammit.

Oh, how the humans love feeding

the thing called love with anxiety.

Cihan.

ANAVARZA CASTLE

- Look out! Stop the car!

- We'll learn soon.

What are you doing? Maran!

What's wrong?

What's so damn urgent?

Your son.

Cihan.

Stop! What are you doing?

Maran!

Cihan!

Maran!

Where are you? What are you doing?

Maran!
