01x08 - Episode 8

Post by bunniefuu »

[Funda breathing heavily]

[dramatic music playing]

[music intensifies]

[Funda] I wanted to be everything,

but I succeeded at nothing.

How will I ever face my daughter again?

Will she forget the danger
her mother put her through?

There was a passion burning inside of me.

An appetite to live.

Painting was the vessel
to bring that passion out of me

and gift it to the world.

[music intensifies]

[Funda] To feel that passion again,
I sacrificed my happiness.

My marriage, my motherhood, my family.

Now this must change.

[dramatic music continues]

[Funda] Soon it will all be over.

The good painter,

the bad mother, will both disappear.

[sobs]

[dramatic music continues]

[dramatic music continues]

Funda!

What have you done?

[dramatic music continues]

[Mavi coos]

[music swells]

[dramatic music continues]

[breathing heavily]

[sobs] Please, I need help, İlker.

Help me. I'm begging you.

NOT A STRANGER

[music fades]

[poignant music playing]

[Mavi cooing]

Baby's awake.

I asked Nazlı to stay a bit longer.
To watch Mavi.

She'll take her, if you want,
so you can get ready.

No, I want her to stay with me
a while longer.

[sniffles] Just a bit longer.

[Funda kissing Mavi]

Oh!

I'll be next door.

[poignant music continues]

[Funda sobs]

I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.

[Funda crying]

[Funda] I'm sorry.

[poignant music continues]

[Mavi cooing]

[sighs] I'm ready.

I'll take your bags to the car.

[Mavi coos]

Isn't it strange how life is?

[Mavi cooing]

[chuckles]

Nazlı will take care of you, Mavi.

[Mavi coos]

She'll take good care of you.

Because to love someone
is to pay attention.

I promise, I will.

Your mother, I understand her now.

[Funda sniffles, exhales]

My heart is consumed with love.

-[Mavi coos]
-[Funda sniffles]

[Mavi cooing]

Please take good care of her.

Of course.

[İlker] We can go.

The car is ready.

[sobs]

[poignant music continues]

-[engine starting]
-[Funda] Wait, I'll be right back.

Hold on.

[poignant music continues]

[music turns mysterious]

[music intensifies]

[music fades]

[poignant ethereal music playing]

NUVOSANTE HOSPITAL

[poignant ethereal music continues]

Welcome. This way.

[music intensifies]

[Funda] I think we should hug goodbye,
right now. Just in case.

[İlker] I don't want it to be for goodbye.

I'm kind of drunk, but listen.

You and I are like brother and sister.

I'm thinking this hug
doesn't have to mean anything.

Just try.

[poignant ethereal music continues]

Do you really think
we'll get through this?

You just get better first.

[Funda breathes deeply]

Don't forget that I will love you
no matter what happens.

I love you so much, İlker.

[Funda sniffles]

[Funda sobs]

[poignant ethereal music continues]

[poignant ethereal music continues]

[sobbing]

-Whoo!
-[poignant ethereal music continues]

Did you drop something?

I'll be upstairs.

[poignant ethereal music continues]

[poignant ethereal music continues]

[door closes]

[music fades]

[dramatic string music playing]

So what should we wear? Hmm?
How about this one?

No, this isn't it.

This is sweet.

You like this one, hmm?

[Mavi giggles]

[dramatic string music continues]

[dramatic string music continues]

[thunder rumbles]

[dramatic string music continues]

[music intensifies]

[crying]

[Kemal] I brought these for you.
To keep you busy.

[doctor] And now, looking back, um,

do you regret choosing her
over someone else?

[dramatic string music continues]

[message tone]

YOU HAVEN'T BEEN TO THE OFFICE,
ARE YOU OKAY?

[Kemal] What caused Funda
to have a meltdown, İlker?

I know Funda,

and she would never allow herself
to end up like this.

Of course, I don't know
what happened and all that,

but everything started
when that girl showed up.

You know what's interesting?

Funda told me that you had some kind of
relationship with Nazlı in the past.

Mark my words.
I'm gonna get to the bottom of this.

-[tense music playing]
-[message tone]

[Deniz] No, Kemal, sorry.
I don't know Nazlı's last name.

I mean, it never occurred to me
to even ask.

[tense mysterious music playing]

[Kemal] Funda told me
about your boyfriend's passing.

-I'm very sorry for your loss.
-[Nazlı] Mm.

DO YOU HAVE NAZLI'S SOCIAL MEDIA?
DO YOU KNOW HER LAST NAME?

SELIN NO, I DON'T.

THE SWEET NURSES OF THE DELIVERY ROOM!

[tense mysterious music continues]

THE STARS OF PEDIATRIC HEALTH
@MERVEDEMIREL

SEND MESSAGE

[music intensifies]

HELLO, WE'RE HIRING NAZLI DEMİRCİ
AS A NANNY.

BUT WE COULDN'T FIND ANY REFERENCES.
I'D APPRECIATE IF YOU COULD HELP US.

[tense mysterious music continues]

-[Kemal] I spoke with Deniz.
-[music fades]

Your pieces at the gallery
have all been sold.

In fact, two of them were sold
to a private collector in London.

He really wants to meet you.

I let him know
that you'd be unavailable for some time.

Isn't it exhausting for you
to come here every other day?

[chuckles]

Not at all.

It's my pleasure to come here and see you.

I miss Mavi so much.

[melancholy music playing]

İlker didn't bring her by to see you?

I can't stand seeing you in here anymore.

You came here, had some rest,
pulled yourself together.

It's time for you to get back home.

How can I go back?

After what I've done to them,

I couldn't face İlker and Mavi
and pretend like nothing happened.

I know they're better off without me.

[melancholy music continues]

[melancholy music continues]

I thought you might be hungry.

I won't eat, thanks.

I'll leave this here, just in case.

I can bring you something else.

I said no.

Thank you.

[exhales sharply]

[İlker sniffles]

You don't have this luxury.

Pull yourself together.

Mavi needs you.

[sighs]

-[melancholy music continues]
-[phone chimes]

COME TO THE HOSPITAL I WORK AT…
I'M SENDING THE ADDRESS…

[melancholy music continues]

[melancholy music continues]

[melancholy music continues]

[melancholy music continues]

Hello, Merve? I'm Kemal.

Hello.

[music fades]

Nazlı's going to care for your baby?

That's right.

Please hire someone else.

And why is that?

What has she told you about this place?

That previously she had an accident
and quit nursing.

That's not true.

She was fired.

You don't say.

What for?

Listen, she was a greatly skilled nurse,
and everyone loved working with her.

But then, why was she fired?

She had some bad things going on
in her private life.

Like what?

She was pregnant.

She lost her baby in the accident.

And after that,

I just don't think
she was ever really able to recover.

So why exactly was she fired?

[unsettling mysterious music playing]

[siren wailing in distance]

[unsettling mysterious music continues]

[sighs]

[unsettling mysterious music continues]

[unsettling mysterious music continues]

[unsettling mysterious music continues]

[Nazlı] May I ask
what you're looking for, sir?

[unsettling mysterious music continues]

Maybe I should be asking you.

I wonder what you're looking for
in Funda's life.

I don't know what you're talking about.

I'm sure you do.

What do you say we drop the formality
and be on a first-name basis?

What do you want?

I came to speak with İlker.

About what?

Have you always been so curious?
Where did you get that from?

You just missed him.

Perhaps I can help you with something?

Yes.

Perhaps I should speak with you,
since you are at the center of it all.

I don't follow.

You did this to Funda, didn't you?

Like you did to that baby
in the hospital you were fired from.

She went into a coma
after you gave her a bunch of sedatives.

They saved her life.

Took your statement and then fired you.

Then they covered it up
so no one would sue the hospital.

[music turns tense]

That night, Funda wasn't drunk.

[Kemal] I know her better than most.

I know her heart, and I know her mind.

She wasn't drunk, was she?

That she can't remember that night
is no coincidence.

[tense music continues]

What did you give her, I wonder?

Tell me. When did you start poisoning her?

Confusing her thoughts?

[tense music intensifies]

I made you some chamomile tea.
Saw it in the house. Assumed you liked it.

Yes, indeed, I do.

[İlker] She was the nanny,
then your model, now she's your friend?

[Funda] Wanna play a game?

[dramatic tense music playing]

[Funda] My whole body hurts.
I've got such a migraine.

Oh God, this is so weird.

[dramatic tense music continues]

[Funda] Chamomile infusion.

Nazlı made it.

[Nazlı] The raki. Like I said,
that stuff packs a punch.

Why don't I make you mint tea?
You don't look well.

[dramatic tense music continues]

I'm not doing so good.

[Nazlı] I'll make you tea. It'll help.

Nazlı. I can't remember
what happened at all.

[music swells]

[gasp echoes]

[dramatic tense music continues]

Here you go.

[İlker] Nazlı?

Here, some tea
to go with your breakfast. [echoes]

I made some chamomile tea.

Her behavior on opening night
was your doing.

-[guests clapping]
-[dramatic tense music continues]

[Nazlı] Celebrate your hard work.

[Mavi cooing echoes]

That Funda was not real.
That was someone else.

[laughter echoes]

The uneasiness she felt all night,
the way she rushed out carelessly…

-[engine revs]
-[tires screech]

[Kemal] You did that to her.

[dramatic tense music continues]

[music intensifies]

I want you to tell me…

Did you poison Mavi as well?

[music stops]

Never.

[tense mysterious music playing]

Do you hear me?

I would never.

What about the baby at the hospital?

[Nazlı] Hmm.

That baby was suffering.

I only wanted to comfort her.

I never meant to harm her.

Compassion dictated my actions.

Compassion?

How can you call this compassion?

It was.

Surely you can see that too.

[scoffs]

So Funda was poisoned
out of the goodness of your heart.

[breathes shakily]

I love Mavi very much.

I would do anything for her.

I was there before Funda, all right?

This life should've been mine.

My family.

My happiness.

I was there first.

Nazlı, clearly you're not well.

-You're sick, and you need help.
-It's not a sickness when it's true love.

Passion.

Sacrifice.

It drives me crazy to think Funda's been
living with a psychopath like you

for this whole time.

Because you're in love with her.

[tense mysterious music continues]

We should understand each other.

Your insane obsessions do not compare
to the feelings I have for her.

Fine, it's just me.

How about you tell me
how far you are willing to go

to get back the life you've lost?

Huh?

I stand by what I've done.

How far would you go?

Funda is a married woman now.

Isn't she?

Didn't she choose to be with İlker?

She left you, but you can change that.

[tense mysterious music continues]

[Nazlı sniffles]

Uh, what are you even saying?

Just listen.

Just trust me and be quiet.

Be patient.

Because Funda will come to you.

Your patience can win her back.

Because that happened for me.

Everything is as it should be.

[tense mysterious music continues]

What was he doing at the house?

[music subsides]

Funda wanted some of her things.
He came to get them for her.

[poignant music playing]

[poignant music continues]

[doctor] So, after the six weeks
you spent here,

and after our sessions together,

I'm curious, how do you feel now?

You know, I actually started to feel

a lot better
a few days after I arrived here.

[poignant music continues]

More like myself.

I agree. You recovered rather quickly.

I think all I needed was time to get away.

My friend who visits me often…

-Mr. Kemal, you mean.
-Mm.

Yes, I met him.

He thinks it's time for me to go home.

Yes, he talked to me as well.

[doctor] Funda, all that matters
is what you want.

When you feel ready to leave,
just let us know.

We'll talk.

[intriguing music playing]

-Take care of yourself.
-Thank you, I will.

-Thank you.
-Have a nice day.

[intriguing music continues]

My lady.

Your chariot awaits.

[dramatic music playing]

Funda.

[music intensifies]

I missed you very much.

[Nazlı] For someone you love
with every fiber of your being…

there's no such thing as evil.

[dramatic music continues]

[Nazlı] There's no stopping now.

This is where I belong.

I deserved this family.

I earned it.

No matter the cost, I will protect them.

[music intensifies]

[music swells]

[music subsides]
