02x02 - Episode 2

[bunniefuu]

[mysterious music playing]

[Gökhan, echoing] I am Semavi.

I speak in the name of Allah
who is here and everywhere.

They've been calling me a t*rror1st.

But I'm asking you all,

who is the actual t*rror1st?

Aren't the small group of people who take
all of the resources the real t*rrorists?

Aren't those tyrants who disregard
morality, kindness and justice,

and are driven by greed, enslaved by
their privilege the true t*rrorists?

These same tyrants,
are now telling you all,

"This is how the world works.
This is how it's always been,

and that you can't change it."

"Be content with what you already
have. Don't ask for anything more."

They say you are a t*rror1st
if you ask for more!

Dericiler Square.

-f*ck.
-So they've been lying to you.

And from now on, everyone
will get what they deserve.

No one will be mistreated or oppressed.
No one will be in need anymore.

Allah's will will prevail, you'll see!

Mark my words and watch closely.

[mysterious music continues]

KADIKÖY PIER

You tyrants and blood suckers,
I'm talking to you.

You're not safe anywhere from now on.

Be afraid.

[tires screech]

[people gasping]

[Ekrem] You're gonna clean up
this mess. Got it?

You have to handle it
before it goes to the court.

If it comes out
that my son was driving, I'll k*ll you.

God damn you.

[sirens blaring]

[police alert beeping]

Let's go, let's go!

Listen, guys,
I want you to find Semavi first.

And pay close attention to me!

[people shouting]

Hurry! Get them!

Take him. Take that one!
Everyone with a black hoodie!

The van! Hey, check the van!

Take him. Get him outta here.

Get him outta here.

Not him. Wait, wait!

MIGHTY - ARROGANCE - GREAT - GRAVE

[distant explosions]

[mysterious music fades]

[reporter] Can Öz,
the son of Minister Ekrem Öz,

was allegedly involved in a car accident

that resulted in the death of Şenay
Dilaver, she was six months pregnant.

Police have determined
Dilaver to be entirely at fault,

and no legal action
has been taken against Can Öz.

Can you please comment on the accusations?

[overlapping chatter]

[officer] Stand back! Get back!

[man 1] This is a huge scandal.

At the end of the day,
a government official,

more importantly,
the Minister of Interior Affairs,

who's trusted to protect our lives,
has forged documents

and erased CCTV footage

to save his son
who k*lled a pregnant woman.

Who knows what else he's done?

[man 2] You don't think the people who
released these videos share any blame?

[man 1] What do you mean?

[man 2] These people can infiltrate
our country's archives

and take over every screen in the country.

Aren't you concerned about this?

[man 1] I'm concerned about the minister
being capable of something so hideous.

[reporter] We're taking a break
to head to Ankara.

Minister Ekrem,
who's the talk of the country

because of serious allegations
against him,

has arrived outside
of The Ministry Building.

REPUBLIC OF TURKEY
DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR

[mysterious music playing]

Mr. Minister, do you have any comments
regarding the footage of the accident?

They're doctored. This is an attempt
at political assassination.

They will definitely pay for this.

Are you considering resigning
because of this?

No.

[music fades]

-Aren't the small group of people...
-See how he gets people under his spell?

-How does he do that?
-That f*cking b*stard.

[door opens]

Mr. Turgut.

Haven't you and I
lived this exact moment before, Muammer?

-Huh?
-[Gökhan chattering]

{\an8}Look at him.

He goes to a city square
in the middle of the day,

and somehow he manages to go live
on every major network and news channel.

He makes a fool of us
and humiliates the government,

and you guys sit here watching.

Um, sir, there's probably an international
group of hackers involved in this.

f*ck your politeness, and f*ck
the international group of hackers.

Come on, Muammer.

Mr. Turgut, calm down.

I won't calm down.

How about I take you off the case?
Let someone else handle it.

You guys can chase around drug dealers,
or try and track down hookers,

although, you probably
can't even do that either.

You know, Mr. Turgut,
we might be able to do a better job

if reports weren't fabricated
or security footage wasn't deleted.

-Good one. Are you making fun of me?
-Please!

-Let go of me, Muammer!
-Hey, wait a second!

-Are you really making fun of me?
-Hey, please. Calm down. Hey.

You're done. That's it.

[Muammer] Sir, wait! Mr. Turgut!

[mysterious music playing]

[reporter] It's confirmed.
We've just verified the allegations.

Ekrem Öz, who has been
the Minister of Interior Affairs,

has been relieved from his duty.

[cheering]

Semavi! Semavi! Semavi!

Semavi! Semavi! Semavi! Semavi!

Semavi! Semavi! Semavi! Semavi! Semavi!

-[person] Shh!
-Semavi!

-So, what's next, Semavi?
-[mysterious music fades]

Yes, Semavi. Tell us what's next?

Indecent tapes of another Minister
or something? Huh?

What does that mean, Ali Rıza?

What's that mean?

It means, "What are you doing?"
What is happening here?

Come on, has everyone here
completely lost their minds?

Dilek, won't you say something?

-We are fighting on the path of Allah.
-What path? What fight, huh?

You only care about yourselves.
Don't drag Allah into this.

Stop, Ali Rıza,
you're being disrespectful.

We are fulfilling the will
of Allah's commands.

Does Allah command you
to post videos of all these people?

-Come on, Ali Riza.
-Huh, Gökhan?

So Allah doesn't strike the guy
with lightning, no.

He doesn't send this guy sickness
or disease, but sends you a video instead?

I think that
you're a little tired, Father.

Maybe you should rest.

How... How... How could you drag
my daughter into something like this?

[ominous music playing]

Should we talk about this later,
just the two of us, Father?

We'll talk now. Tell me who you're
involved with. What you've been doing.

You should repent, Ali Rıza.
Remember, you're talking to Semavi.

I don't care!

How is he different from you or me?
He's just another human being.

This is sinful. You must take back
what you said, Ali Rıza.

-I am not taking it back.
-Are you sure about that?

Enough.

No, we don't have
to force anyone to believe.

We don't force people.

Oh, yeah? So, am I free, then?

Well, if I'm really free,
let's get this over with.

Let's go, honey.
We're leaving this madhouse.

Father...

Merve, this isn't going
to end well. Let's go.

[ominous music continues]

[sighs]

Get out of my way!

f*ck you.

[electrical zapping]

[shouting]

-Go on. Move!
-What are you doing? Stop!

Listen, I know that hiding like
this has been hard for all of you.

But it's times like these
when the true believers stand out.

When you're comfortable,
when everything's going your way,

and there's no danger, saying,
"I'd die for Allah," is easy.

[mysterious music playing]

But I never said that it would be easy
to walk this path.

I'll never say that.

I accepted this responsibility,
knowing everything I was risking.

And no matter who tries to go against me,
I won't stop until I succeed.

So, you're either with me,

or I'm afraid you will be left behind.

It's your choice.

So this is your one chance.

Speak up now,
if any of you have a problem with this.

No one?

Okay, let's get back to business.

[people chattering]

[sighs] Ali Rıza is over here.

Open the door.

Merve, don't make this difficult.

Ali Cemal!

Let me in now!

Merve, I can't.

Your father is only able to leave
if Semavi gives the orders. Understand?

[mysterious music continues]

My father's right, isn't he, Gökhan?
That's why you're upset.

-I don't know what you're talking about.
-I saw you last night.

-Who is he?
-[tense music playing]

-Wait, did you follow me?
-Yes, I did, actually!

I had to because you
never tell me anything.

-Did you tell anyone anything?
-Who is that guy, huh?

Did you say anything to anyone?

[dramatic music playing]

I can tell when you're afraid.

Tell me who you're so scared of.

I'm not scared of anyone, okay?

Did you say anything to anyone?

Did you tell anyone anything?

Allah knows, Gökhan. Isn't that enough?

Gökhan?

What have you gotten yourself into?

You wouldn't understand.
None of you would understand.

What wouldn't we understand?
What can't you tell us?

You told us that Allah spoke to you.
We understood you then. We believed you!

What could be harder to grasp than that?

Is it that Allah
doesn't really speak to you?

Or that Allah never really chose you?

How can you even suggest that, Merve?

The reason I'm saying that is
because the Gökhan I once knew is gone!

And right now, I can't figure out
what I should believe!

[dramatic music continues]

[exhales deeply]

[panting]

It's a computer.

A software company.

[music becomes ominous]

What?

That man yesterday...

He's the owner of the software company
that created Kübra.

[reporter] Following the dismissal
of Minister Ekrem,

his assistant, Turgut Yüksel,
has been appointed as his replacement.

-Selim, wait.
-Selim.

-Who do you think you are?
-Selim, wait!

What do you think you're doing?
You're out of your mind!

-Get up! You as*h*le!
-[Berk laughing hysterically]

What do you think you're doing?

-[laughing hysterically]
-[ominous music continues]

All right, don't touch me!

Why are you... Why is he laughing?

-[woman] Stop it!
-'Cause you're an idiot. You're idiots.

-Why are you laughing?
-[Berk] Because you're dumb!

Idiot. [chuckling] Idiots, yeah!

Your brains can't handle it.
You don't have the capacity.

You lack the IQ! You're all idiots!

It's marvelous, Selim!

How can you not see
what an amazing thing we've created?

Selim! Selim!

EKREM ÖZ DISMISSED

We took down the minister.

{\an8}Don't you see? Kübra did this.

Wait, you mean all those messages?

-Yeah.
-[ominous music stops]

Right, Allah didn't send them.

Gökhan, you know
that these people are using you.

How can you not see that?

I told you you wouldn't understand, Merve.
You just don't get it.

I'm the one that's using them, Merve.

To create a more just world,
and for the salvation of our people.

I'm the one who's using them.

[dramatic music playing]

Have we done anything wrong, Merve?

I mean, think about it, what've we done
other than help the people?

The incident today.

I mean, that b*stard's son.
He k*lled a pregnant woman.

He took two lives, and covered it up.

Who knows how many more people
could have been hurt,

if I hadn't released that video
to the public.

They are just a tool that I...

that I can use
to help me achieve all of my goals.

Computers, cell phones and banks.

It goes through everything,
I'm telling you.

Anything that's said to be
"impenetrable, hack-proof or impossible,"

Kübra can get in and out
in the blink of an eye.

It's insane, Selim!

Selim, we did all this, man!
I mean, can you believe it?

-How did this happen?
-Kübra did it.

But how? It should be impossible
for this to happen.

There's no such thing as impossible!
"Impossible" doesn't exist anymore!

"Impossible" is beneath us.
Kübra created a new algorithm.

All by herself, Selim. With only
one command. Firewalls and encryptions.

It goes through all of them,
I'm telling you. [squeals]

Right now there's literally nothing
that can stop Kübra.

I'm telling you, the entire world, okay?

Do you know what it means, Selim?

Do you know what it means?

The world, my man.

The world. Look here.

It's all right here, in my hand, look.

I'm fingering the world right now.

-All right, show it to me. Let's see.
-[cackling]

-[Berk] Yeah, yeah, yeah.
-Wait, are you guys completely insane?

Do you realize how ill*gal this is?

Hey! Selim. This is...

You're driving me crazy!

[dramatic music continues]

-Guys listen, we need to stop Kübra.
-[Berk] We can't stop it.

What do you mean, we can't?
We'll get in so much trouble.

Well, we can't stop her.
Isn't that right, Adem?

-[sighs]
-[Merve] So what now?

What's next?

You already got the answer
to your question.

What's that supposed to mean?

It means that...
you know what you wanted to know.

Let me go on as I planned
from here on out, okay?

"Let me go on"?

You realize that the whole group
is in this together with you now?

Your mother, your sister, and all
of these people who believe in you.

And now, you're acting like
you're doing this by yourself.

What's changed, Merve?

Huh?

You didn't question every move
I made before.

Why so many questions now?

I haven't changed. I am Semavi.

Neither my faith or my path
has changed at all.

You...

You've never believed in me, have you?

Remember that blood-stained shirt,
you said, "I believe you." Huh?

Gökhan, of course I believed you.

Then why are you questioning me
right now, Merve?

Look. You're not going
to tell anyone anything.

And your father will stay there
until he understands what's right.

There's no going back anymore.

[dramatic music fades]

So, if we try to backtrack and clean
things up, we'll lose the entire system.

If we lose the system, we'll be exposed
and won't be able to explain anything.

I don't want to talk about the millions
in damages that's written in our contract.

I really don't care about any of that.

I don't care,
you'll put an end to this, okay?

Do you really think that it's just
about the money, Deniz? And prison?

Huh?

Power outages, and then, chaos, chaos.
And all those people died, you know?

We unleashed a bunch of idiots that are
part of the so-called Semavi Movement.

-[chuckles]
-With their fearless leader.

A leader that we actually created.

A leader with a whole army
that's at his command.

I don't know, I think a life sentence.

At least.

I say "At least" because,

I don't think they'll let us live
long if we get locked up.

So, yeah, a tough decision, right?

[Selim chuckles]

Go to prison or Kübra.

[Selim chuckles]

-He's right.
-[Deniz] He's right?

He's right.

[scoffs] Oh, yeah? How is he right?
Tell me, what is he right about?

We're turning a blind eye
to avoid a prison sentence?

Uh-uh, what? No. No, I couldn't care less
about going to prison.

Deniz, look, this...
this is a real revolution.

Do you understand what this means?

Yeah, I get it, but this...

I don't think there's anything more
to say about this now. Listen!

To hell with all of it!
There's just no stopping. Look at this.

-This is...
-And that's exactly why, friends,

I need your help right now.

We have to make the system perfect.

And then? Okay, where
are you going with all this?

To where it began.

She'll have to seize power first.

[ominous music plays and then fades]

{\an8}I'm saddened and regret that I'm accepting
the position under these circumstances.

{\an8}That being said,
that's what our government has decided,

so, it is my public duty to honor that.

Everyone is talking about you.

That they took the case from me?

No. How you stood up to the new minister.

[scoffs]

You've got some ba*ls.

Which case are you working on now?

What do you think?

You're going to get
into big trouble. Just let it go.

I need someone I can trust on the inside.

You'll be my eyes and ears here.

I'll catch that b*stard they call Semavi,
one way or the other,

and you're going to help me do it, okay?

[Turgut] Rest assured that, as always,
we have a zero tolerance policy

{\an8}for those who try to create chaos
among the public,

{\an8}and anyone caught will be punished.

[moody music playing]

[whispering] f*ck you guys.

[Gökhan] I know, Allah.

I know You are with me.

You spared my life.

I'm here so that
I can deliver Your messages

and get the people on Your righteous path.

Allah, I know this is Your will.

SEMAVİ
INCORRECT PASSWORD. PLEASE TRY AGAIN.

But they don't understand.

They're full of doubt.

They doubt You, Allah.

They don't understand that,
no matter what they do,

and no matter what
they try to say about me,

that I will never stray
from Your path, Allah.

[moody music fades]

They look just like they did that day.

Mm. Which day?

The day Gökhan was released
from the police station.

We all waited quietly that day, remember?

Mom, it feels like something has changed.

It's weird.

Like they all used to look at Gökhan
with so much love, so much admiration.

And now everybody looks at him with fear.

It's not because
they're afraid of your brother.

They're afraid of the future.
They're scared of what's to come.

I heard that they dragged Ali Rıza out
by the arms and locked him up.

And they won't let him leave.

And you?

Aren't you afraid?

What's going to happen?

Wait, what happened to the Gülcan who
said, "Gökhan is Allah's chosen servant."

"Allah will help Gökhan.
Gökhan will prevail."

Where did that Gülcan go?

Hm?

[mysterious music playing]

-Where are you going?
-Where do you think, Mom?

My legs got numb,
I'm gonna walk while I eat, okay?

[music fades]

[metallic door creaks and opens]

You must be really hungry.

[Ali Rıza] Honey. Mmm.

[Ali Rıza groans faintly]

Honey, all of this is insanity.

Madness. It's crazy, you know that, right?

Come on, you're smart, Merve.
You don't get fooled very easily.

Right, honey?

I'm old.

I could be here today and gone tomorrow.

But you... those young guys...

Gokhan is not in his right mind.

You see that, don't you?

I know that you can see that
as much as I do right now.

And whatever he's gotten himself into,
it will be the end of us all.

You're the only one
who can make him listen.

[sighs]

No, he doesn't listen to me anymore.

He'll listen. He loves you.

It's the only thing that hasn't changed.

You have to do something about this.

[mysterious music playing]

[metallic creaking]

[g*n c*ck]

[approaching footsteps]

[footsteps continue approaching]

[gasps] Gülcan.

[ghostly singing]

Where did you come from?

Oh, man. Aren't you a little bit old
to be asking where people come from?

[dramatic music playing]

[approaching footsteps]

[music fades]

[Berk chuckles]

Look at his charm.
Nice to see you, Semavi.

[crickets chirping]

[Gökhan groans faintly]

What's this for?

Don't you think that we should

celebrate together?

[Berk laughs]

By the way,
I couldn't find anything better.

I didn't think it would make
a difference to you, am I right?

Come on, then. Ahh.

To more Ekrems.

And to our future successes.

[chuckles]

Here. Have some. It's caviar.

Won't find that underground, hm?

[chuckles]

What is it, huh? Today, you seem, uh...

What's wrong?

Nothing's wrong.

Semavi, do we have a problem?

There's no problem.

All right.

Come on. Back to business.

-When's the meeting with this guy?
-In two hours.

Okay, let's take a look at this.

[typing on keyboard]

[dramatic music resumes]

[music fades]

-Hey, I have a question for you.
-Hm?

Be honest, did you really
never believe, even a little,

that Gökhan was Allah's chosen one?

Gül, do you think I give a damn
whether he's been chosen or not? Huh?

[chuckles faintly]

I mean, the guy is my best friend.

So why aren't you with him?

Well, if I get close to him,
then I'll be far from you.

Mmm.

[heartfelt music playing]

Listen, I have a question for you, too.

Why did you come?

Something happen?

No.

Gülcan.

Come on, did you actually do it for me?

That shirt. That you stole.

Yeah. And I'd do it again.

Mm.

Will you always protect me like this?

Yes, despite your best efforts.

[heartfelt music continues]

-You know what?
-Hm?

Why don't we just get
the f*ck out of here?

[whispering] Run away?

To where, huh?

To where Allah has forsaken.

[music becomes dramatic]

[man] Welcome, sir.

This way.

Semavi.

Should I call you "Mr. Minister" now?

[Berk] We challenged the system.

We gave back the money.
How crazy is that, huh?

But the next level is going
to be even harder. You ready?

Yes. Yes, Minister.

Rest assured, we'll find Semavi
as soon as possible.

He will pay for what he's done.

Get into the heart of the government.

Enter.

as*h*le.

Hey, where are you going now?

Why did we stop, Cihangir?

[music becomes ominous]

Son of a b*tch. God damn you, Cihangir.

[Gökhan] Misconduct in public office.

Not to mention the bid rigging
that's been going on.

Blackmail, bribery, numerous threats.

Shall I go on?

Who the hell are you?

Huh?

How'd you find out about that?

Don't worry about it.

What do you want?

I've taken back all the money
that you stole from the people.

There's no money left in your account.

I've transferred it
to all the people in need.

All my money.

You've restored justice in your own way.

What else do you want?

I want to use you
to get into the heart of the government.

So what now?

[ominous music continues]

[door shuts]

I'm here.

You didn't lie to me? You're alone?

No police, just me.

Okay, I'm listening.

[Turgut] But this is impossible, brother.

Gökhan.

Listen, that's simply impossible.
We can't do that.

[Gökhan] Do you want to know
what's really impossible?

That a bloodsucker like you has managed
to take the position of Minister.

Gökhan, there are things that can be done
and things that cannot be done.

How am I supposed
to dismiss all of these people?

Even if I could dismiss them, how am
I supposed to find their replacements?

There will be public outrage.
How will we justify this to the people?

You'll get what you want.

I'll hand over Gökhan to you.

[ominous music fades]

[electronic music playing]

[music fades]
