[wind blows]
[whispering, rustling resume]
[music intensifies]
[imam] Oh Lord, you ordered us, but we failed you.
We could not do it.
We made mistakes. We sinned.
Starting with Ozan, forgive us all, please.
Be merciful.
[imam] Give his family, his relatives, his friends, and all those who love him
the strength to carry on, to endure the pain.
-We come from God... -[phone vibrates]
[tense music plays]
[woman 1] My condolences.
[man 1] I'm so sorry.
[woman 2] God bless you.
[man 2] I'm so sorry for your loss.
-My condolences. -Take care.
[Atiye] If one day,
women could no longer give birth,
you should return to the Earth's heart.
-[rumbling] -[Atiye] It's womb.
However, the door that leads there
can only be opened by the unity of man and woman.
And only then will you give birth
-to the child denied you... -[rumbling continues]
...and the world will reawaken.
And fertility, conceived by that union,
will be regenerated.
The door you're looking for is beneath that tree,
which joins the heavens and earth.
It has been here forever,
trusted to you for generations and generations,
destined to last for all time.
Your time is now.
Here and now.
Prepare for the unknown.
Prepare for the words that have never been spoken before.
Remember where you have come from,
where you've been.
And remind them.
Don't be afraid.
[sighs] Now, we know what we have to do.
And we will succeed.
[reporter] The police have opened an investigation
into the death of Ozan Yılmaz,
whose private funeral, attended only by close family,
took place this morning.
The circumstances surrounding his death are still unknown.
His father, famous entrepreneur Serdar Yılmaz,
-has yet to release a statement. -[knocking]
-And now back to the studio for further... -[knocking continues]
[knocking]
Elif, Mr. Yılmaz asked me to come fetch you.
They didn't even bother to tell me the funeral was today.
They even stopped taking my calls.
[Sansar] That's probably because he wanted to keep the funeral in the family.
Uh... He says he'll see you now. Come on, let's go.
[ominous music plays]
[Nazım] You have to stay away from Serdar and his family.
They'll hurt you one day.
I forgot, I have something important that I need to do.
-I'll come by later. -Stop, Elif.
This isn't an invitation. It's an order.
Fine, I'll find my own way there.
-[tense music plays] -[Elif gasps]
Elif.
-[music intensifies] -[engine starts]
[Sansar] Go, go, go!
Elif!
[atmospheric music plays]
[shouting] Don't touch me! Don't touch me!
Don't you ever dare touch me again.
Never...
ever touch me again.
You misled me.
You misled me!
Told me all those lies.
Ozan, he never went abroad, did he?
Never sent me a text message.
You misled me.
He's gone. My son! [cries]
My son's not coming back.
-He's gone. -I'll fix everything.
-And he's not coming home. -I'll fix everything, really.
-He isn't... He isn't... -Everything.
I know my son.
I know my son isn't... My son...
-[music intensifies] -My son… [cries]
My son...
[door closes]
-Make sure she doesn't go anywhere. -Very well, sir.
[computer beeps]
[sobbing] Why are you doing this to me?
I've done everything you asked. Everything!
[shouts]
[sobbing] This isn't over! This doesn't end here!
It's not over! Argh! Argh!
[atmospheric music plays]
I'll bring my son back.
-[keys jangle] -[door opens]
I was so worried. Where have you been?
I heard about Ozan. I'm so sorry.
Erhan.
Why did Ozan die?
What's the matter?
I've no idea why he died.
Anything to do with what you and Serdar were doing while I was away?
Erhan... [sighs]
It's over, Hannah.
So come clean.
[tense music plays]
I...
[inhales] You tell me right now what the hell Serdar is up to.
Erhan, believe me, I don't know what you're talking about.
Believe me, I know you threatened my father and my sister,
and you've been working for him for years, so stop lying to me and cut the crap!
-Tell the truth, Hannah! -He threatened me.
He forced me into it.
Go on.
You know how I feel.
I love you.
[sighs]
I love you, Erhan.
What is Serdar planning now?
CALLING
[phone rings]
[phone vibrates]
[Erhan] Come on, Hannah. For God's sake, talk to me.
What's that bastard up to?
It's Atiye.
He's been after her right from the start.
He knew Atiye would come looking for you, that she'd find you and...
and he said that...
And he said?
That you would find the thing you were looking for only when Atiye showed up.
[atmospheric music plays]
She was right.
Why didn't I believe her?
-[sighs] -Erhan.
I was in Germany when I first met Serdar.
He offered me a job and I needed the money, my mother was sick--
Don't touch me! Don't touch me!
I agreed to it.
Then he introduced me to you.
And please believe me, I fell in love with you.
I never stopped loving you, Erhan!
I don't believe a word of it.
So pack your things and go peddle your tricks elsewhere. Just go!
Get out of my life!
-Erhan! Erhan! -Dad?
Erhan! Erhan!
What's wrong?
[panting]
-Serdar has kidnapped your sister. -Huh?
[Nazım, panting] And now he'll use Elif as... as...
as bait to pull in Atiye.
She won't have any choice but to see him.
-[suspenseful music plays] -[phone rings]
-[sighs] -[phone chimes]
Elif!
-[tense music plays] -[Elif whimpers]
You have 30 minutes to get here, my dear Atiye.
Now let's see if you can save the poor girl this time.
-Don't you dare hurt her, do you hear me? -[Serdar] The countdown has started.
Oh, and by the way, if you tell anyone...
[tense music intensifies]
-…I'll kill your sister. -[muffled] Hmm?
-I'm texting you the address. -[whimpers]
[phone chimes]
[gasps] 19th Street. 16 - 6.
[Elif mumbles]
-I'll call you. -[mumbles]
[cries]
Call him, find out where he's got her, and pray he hasn't hurt her!
Do you hear me?
[knocking]
-[breathing heavily] -Serap?
Atiye urgently needs our help, Mustafa.
Well... come on in.
[Mustafa] Listen...
We're looking for Atiye everywhere,
but we haven't found her yet.
[sighs]
Serap...
Serdar's wife also asked me to help Atiye.
And I did.
But she skipped.
I'm sorry, but if you don't explain everything to me,
how can I help her? Or you?
-Atiye has very little time. -[soft music plays]
She has to return there as soon as possible.
Or she might have a miscarriage.
Oh, Mustafa, she has to make it.
She has to succeed.
There's no way the girl can have a baby. You know that as well as I do.
Let's pray that neither one of us is right, then.
[suspenseful music plays]
[music intensifies]
[discordant music plays]
[child's voice echoes]
[phone rings]
-What is it, Hannah? -[Hannah] We need to talk.
-[tense music plays] -We have a big problem.
[soft music plays]
I made a point of... not asking about Elif.
He might have suspected.
If this is a trick!
No trick. I've had enough of all the deception, Erhan.
[suspenseful music plays]
13TH STREET 55 - 75
Elif was kidnapped by a man named Sansar.
-I need you to track a license plate-- -Here. Give it to me.
She was grabbed around 1:00 p.m.
If you have surveillance cameras, check them out. Maybe we'll find an address.
-You find Atiye, I'll find Elif. -Can I trust you? Tell me.
What?
How do I know I can I trust you?
Seriously?
You're kidding me, Erhan. Elif's my daughter, dammit!
Elif and I, your daughter and your son,
we've been used, fooled around with all these years,
forced to look after ourselves. Now you're gonna save Elif?
Erhan, you blame everyone but yourself.
I sacrificed my whole life for you and your sister.
Believe me, if I'd known that bastard was behind everything,
-I'd have done something. -If you really cared about us...
you might have cared about who you stuck us with before you left us!
Erhan!
Erhan! Erhan, wait.
I swear to God that I will find her even if it costs me my life.
But you must concentrate on finding Atiye. She's our only chance.
We mustn't fight amongst ourselves if we wanna beat the bastard.
Trust me!
[Erhan sighs]

16/6 19TH STREET, 1 - 21
55 SECONDS BACK
ZOOM OUT
ZOOM IN
Right, uh-huh. Istanbul plates.
Locate it and get it back to me. And make it fast.
Fine, I'll be waiting.
[Atiye pants]
-Atiye… -[tense music plays]
At last we meet.
Release Elif or tell them to release her.
I'll release her.
On one condition.
You take me to the gate.
Sirius and the sun are about to converge.
And you know as well as I do, that's the exact time to open the gate.
That's impossible, I'm afraid. And even if it were, I can't open it.
-[tense music plays] -That's strange.
But it opened before.
Opened when?
Atiye, we really don't have time to discuss that.
Now, just tell me, did you find the gate or not?
Huh?
Let Elif go first.
Sansar, get ready.
I don't believe you'll do it!
-[whimpering] -[Serdar] Believe, Atiye, believe.
-She wouldn't be the first. -[Atiye] Then what?
What do you do after you kill Elif?
You can't breathe and pregnant women can't give birth?
I get it. You refuse to cooperate.
Sansar, counting down.
[Elif whimpers]
[Serdar] Ten...
[car horn sounds]
Come on, get out of the way!
Do you know what we're doing here?
Nine...
This is where it all started.
I was born here.
-[echoing] -[Serdar's ears ring]
Uh... Where were we?
Eight.
Eight. [laughs]
[tense music plays]
When I was eight...
I stole money from my father's wallet.
Seven...
I was punished.
Know what he did?
Six...
He shoved me in that well.
Said I needed to be taught a lesson. I was terrified.
He left me down there all night. I was just a kid!
[echoing, scraping]
[echoing] Papa?
Five...
Let Elif go. She's innocent.
That's when I made a decision.
That if I got out of that well,
I promised myself that no one would ever humiliate me like that again.
No one.
[tense music plays]
I was still no match for my father.
That would change.
I was destined to rule the world.
And no way would I let anyone interfere with that.
[echoing]
There was something in the well.
And I've never told anyone what it was. Nobody.
But I knew then that my destiny...
would travel a different road.
[music intensifies]
Four...
[whimpers]
[Serdar] Three...
[Serdar] Two...
[echoing]
One.
Please stop! I'll tell you everything.
-You're lying. -No, I'm not!
-Sansar. -Don't!
It's in Göbekli Tepe. The door is under a tree.
[music intensifies]
Wait a second.
[sniffles]
[breathes deeply]
[exhales]
[Erhan] Serdar!
[Serdar] My son!
[Atiye] Erhan?
Nobody's going anywhere.
Erhan, stay out of this!
I won't say it again.
Erhan, listen to him. I'd better go, too. Elif's life could depend on it.
Elif is safe.
She's safe.
[sobs]
[shot fires]
-[Sansar shouts] -[Elif sobs]
-[Sansar groans] -[Nazım] Elif! Elif!
It's okay, you're safe now. I'm here.
-[tense music plays] -We bust Serdar next. [sniffs]
Sansar? Sansar?
Come on, let's go.
Stop right there!
[music intensifies]
Oh yeah?
You lied for years.
The lies!
The lies! Exploiting Hannah?
And I never guessed. How can you live with yourself?
Everyone is someone's pawn. Everyone, Erhan!
[soft music plays]
I was no different.
But that's all over now.
Don't make me kill you.
Stay out of my way or I will.
-You're full of shit. Let's go. -Erhan, I'll shoot!
You'd really shoot your adopted son?
Huh?
[Serdar] I'd have no problem with that.
I adopted you and Elif only because you were useful to me.
But you said you were proud of me!
Proud to have me as your son!
You put us through school, took care of us, treated us like your children!
You're not my son, Erhan, and you never have been.
[voice breaking] My son was Ozan.
If I have to kill you to bring him back, don't think I wouldn't do it.
Erhan!
[shot fires, echoes]
Erhan!
Erhan, you and I are gonna have a daughter.
-[gasps] -[Atiye] We're gonna have a daughter.
[soft music plays]
[gasps for breath]
[echoing]
[Atiye] We're gonna have a daughter.
[deep echoing]
Come on. Move!
[Erhan gasps]
[Feride] No! He mustn't die! I'll die in his place.
Dear God, take me instead of him! Please don't let anything happen to him!
-[Feride] Erhan! -Mama!
-Why's the house shaking? -Don't be afraid, Erhan!
Mommy's here.
PRAY FOR HER SOUL
-[soft music plays] -[young Erhan's voice echoes]
Every soul accomplishes his or her plan, Erhan.
It was not your fault that she died.
When did you make the decision to give up living?
You will show the way to your father.
The dawn has secrets to reveal to you, Erhan.
Why have you forgotten the things you learned there?
Why did you break the promise you made there?
[Hannah] I love you.
[sighing, echoing]
I love you.
[Erhan] I love you, too.
[man in cave] When did you confuse passion with love?
Didn't she betray you?
Toy with your feelings?
Your memory seems to be playing tricks on you.
No, I wanna forget this.
-[grunts] -[man] Or perhaps you toyed with her?
You'll never forget them, you know.
What was your excuse for turning your back on love?
-[echoing] -[Erhan groans]
[Erhan] You died.
[man] You still have a chance.
[gasps]
[unsteady breathing]
[Ozan] Mom?
Ozan?
[atmospheric music plays]
Ozan?
[Ozan] I'm right here, Mom.
Right behind you.
I'll be waiting.
Ozan?
-Dad? -Yes, son?
Elif?
Elif is safe, son. Your sister's fine, and you will be, too.
Listen, Dad.
You were right.
I should have believed in you. I should have listened.
Serdar has gone to Urfa with Atiye.
You gotta stop them.
[Nazım] Shh. Don't speak now, son. Don't speak.
Dad, I...
I missed you so...
-[machine beeps] -[woman] We're losing him.
-[Nazım] What's happening? -Step back.
-[Nazım] Tell me what's happening. -[man] We need to take care of your son.
-[Nazım] I need to stay. -Please, let us work.
[Nazım] I can't leave him.
[dramatic music plays]
Why did you kill Erhan?
He provoked me.
He was asking for it.
You enjoyed every minute of it.
Shut up, Atiye.
Everyone has their own destiny.
Ours are linked by a common denominator, Atiye.
Believe it!
We aren't like other people.
[coughs]
-[coughs] -[Atiye] You actually believe that?
What could we possibly have in common?
We both used that place because it was beneficial to both of us.
I wanted to save my wife, you to save your sister.
Understand me now? We're made of the same fabric, Atiye.
[coughs]
[atmospheric music plays]
Listen, Atiye.
Your time has come, my dear girl.
You can do it for us.
[breathes deeply]
You must believe.
Please believe it.
[Serdar coughs]
[gasps, coughs]
You have trouble breathing because you suffocated Cansu. It's payback.
That's ridiculous.
[tense music plays]
[coughs]
[gasping for breath]
[coughing]
-[gasping for breath] -[engine revs]
-[gasps, exclaims] -Hit the brakes!
-[tense music plays] -[Atiye] Let me steer!
-[tires squeal] -[crashing, splintering]
[dog barking in distance]
-[electrical crackling] -[turn signal clicks]
[Serdar gasps, coughs]
[seat belt releases]
[gasping, coughing continue]
[Atiye coughs]
[groans]
[Serdar groans]
[gasping intensifies]
-Let go of me! -Come on!
[Serdar] Stop!
[Atiye groans]
[fire whooshes]
[suspenseful music plays]
-We gotta go. -No! Leave me here.
[Atiye grunts]
-[flames whoosh] -[Atiye exclaims]
-Come on. Get up! We gotta go. -[gasping continues]
Come on!
[dogs bark in distance]
-[gasping continues] -[both groan]
[Serdar groans, struggles to breathe]
-[atmospheric music plays] -[Atiye exhales]
[Serdar's gasping stops]
-[Atiye breathes deeply] -[echoing]
[Atiye groans]
[groans]
[echoing]
[reporter] World-renowned archeologist Erhan Kurtiz,
known for his extensive excavation at Göbekli Tepe,
was shot today and rushed to the hospital,
where he underwent immediate surgery.
He's still in critical condition. The police are looking for witnesses.
[Hannah] Don't move!
-[machine beeps] -[loud echoing]
[Erhan] Atiye, run!
-[echoing] -[screaming]
[groans]
Nurse, where am I?
You're in Urfa, Professor.
At the hospital. I'll go call the doctor.
[atmospheric music plays]
[music intensifies]
Atiye?
