Original subtitles

Good morning, Sevgi.

Ada is your new roommate. I'm sure you'll help her settle in.

Hi.

But, ma'am…

-Leyla's already my roommate. -What's going on?

Oh God. You're right.

There must've been a mix-up.

There's no other room available.

Are you telling me I don't have a place after such a long trip?

Of course not!

I'm sure we'll manage. Right, Sevgi?

Manage what? There's no space.

I'm sorry, honey. There must've been an error.

I'll sort this out.

Just make do for a while. I'll handle it.

The manager gets confused sometimes.

Don't worry. She'll find you a place soon. Okay?

Give me some.

You must be starving. No breakfast, right?

Come on, then.

Let's clear the desk.

Let's just put these on the bed for now.

ANOTHER SELF

No, I can't do this.

Why not?

How could you hide this from us, Sevgi?

Please answer me, sweetie.

Why? Why didn't you tell us the truth?

This is exactly why, Leyla.

Look at you two.

This is supposed to be you and Fiko's night.

I'm begging you. Can we please drop this already?

All right.

We'll stop talking about it, okay?

We don't have a moment to lose anymore.

Exactly.

That's why I decided

to stop with the treatment.

Sevgi, you can't!

Because I'm out of time, Leyla.

I have one thing to ask of you.

Don't tell my mom…

or Fiko anything.

All right?

How can you expect us to do that, baby?

Finally!

-Leyla, please don't. -We did great.

-It went amazing. -Fine.

Everyone fell in love with the place, Leylo.

They loved the mezes too.

There's still the broken pipe, but that's easy.

What's wrong?

-It's just that the pipe got on my nerves. -But…

That's what you're upset about?

I'll have the plumber fix it tomorrow.

Weird.

Can I ask you a favor, Fiko?

I missed the girls a lot.

I really need them.

Can they crash at my place?

Of course. Sevgi calls the shots anyway.

Are you sure you don't want treatment?

I am, Ada.

I swear I'm sure.

Enough already.

I've made my peace with it. This is the end. So be it.

How can you say that?

Do you even hear yourself?

People survive all sorts of things against all odds.

-I won't let you lose hope. -I haven't--

For God's sake, Leyla. I haven't lost anything.

I just shifted my focus.

I was so fixated on healing that I forgot I was still here.

You guys did too.

Hello! I'm still here. I'm still alive.

Besides, there are things I want to do.

What do you want to do? Do you have a bucket list or something?

Hey, you. Look at me. Have you been through my notebook?

You have a notebook?

-Leylo. -What?

-Have you? -Of course not!

Hey!

Whatever.

What does it say?

"I'll be thankful for every morning."

That's right.

"I'll tell Fiko how much I love him every day."

Yeah.

"I'll support him."

"I'll go skinny-dipping."

-Oh wow! -It's not like that!

-We can do it together, honey. -Come on, you two.

"I'll get Erdem released."

Enough! The rest is for my eyes only.

Where do you want to start?

Let's start with the one you want the most.

I already know where I want to start, but…

But it's a tough one.

Good morning, my lovelies!

I have a big favor to ask today.

We're looking for a village, but we have no idea where it is.

It used to be inhabited by Armenians.

It should be near Bandırma, Balıkesir.

Maybe someone knows something about it.

If so, please reach out to us.

I'll be looking forward to your DMs.

Big kisses.

Don't forget about me. Bye, take care!

-Honey. -Yeah?

This won't work.

I already looked into every nook and cranny.

I even checked the registry. Nada.

There are so many photos.

I wonder if we can match the background.

ARMENIAN VILLAGES IN BANDIRMA, BALIKESİR

That's a long shot.

Wait a minute.

-What? -What's this?

-Where do you keep your pencils, Ada? -On my desk inside.

Okay. Wait, girls. I'll be back!

-What does she see that I don't? -Hang on.

Give it here. I'll show you a trick from the old spy book.

It's working.

-Wow. -"Kayalık Village, 1977."

Surprise!

Even though the subtle pain

Keeps stinging my heart

Even though the fire

Secretly consumes me

I'm still leaving

I've had my share of life

I've had my share of love and passion

And now it's time to leave

-I don't like this. -It's fine.

Turn it back on. I love that song.

It's ruining the vibe, honey.

Come on, Leyla. Please.

You said you'd do anything I wanted. Turn it on, please.

Every emotion has worn off

Every gaze has lost meaning

The soul has grown weary

It has collapsed, albeit untimely

The devil in me is telling me to take off

Leave without making a sound

"And when you leave," it says

"Don't think for a second Anyone will mourn you"

I've had my share of the world

I've had my share of friends and enemies

And now it's time to leave

I've had my share of sins and good deeds

And it's time I took my leave

Even though the subtle pain

Keeps stinging my heart

Even though the fire

Secretly consumes me

I'm still leaving

I've had my share of life

I've had my share of love and passion

And now it's time to leave

I've had my share of sins and good deeds

And it's time I took my leave

I've had my share of the world

I've had my share of friends and enemies

And now it's time to leave

I've had my share of sins and good deeds

And it's time

I took my leave

Leyloş, can we pull over for a minute?

Sure, baby. No problem.

What are we going to do, Ada?

There's not much left to do.

It's really bad.

The best thing we can do

is indulge her.

Let's find that village, then.

Let's do that.

Honey, I don't think there's a graveyard here.

Should we check somewhere else?

-Come on. -Let's go.

Let's go, girls.

This is it, girls.

Come on.

This is the place.

I don't think it's over here, honey.

There are no pictures or names around this area.

Girls!

I found it!

-I think I found it. -I'm coming.

Coming.

Did you really?

-Incredible! -It's him, right?

We found it.

ARAM KUYUMCIYAN

Water. Can you fetch me some water, girls?

-Sure we can. -Of course.

Let's go. Come on.

Hey, Dad.

It's me.

I know we never met,

but I'm your daughter.

So a part of you

is still alive.

I mean, not for long, but…

You'll tell me everything when I get there, right?

I really want to know you.

I wonder who you were,

what you liked,

what dreams you had.

Another thing.

It's not as bad a place as I fear it to be…

right?

Maybe you'll greet me there.

Because I'm a little scared, you know. What do you say?

And who might you be?

I heard you've been asking around.

How do you know Aram?

Well… I'm Sevgi.

Aram's daughter.

Did you know my father?

I'm Yeram.

I'm Aram's father.

Aram was born here.

He was our only son.

I was a jeweler back then.

Our family trade.

I made the pieces here and sold them in Istanbul.

Aram studied in Istanbul as well.

He was also working at a jewelry store.

I received a letter one day.

"I'm in love," he said.

"Her name is Mukadder."

"We're expecting a child. Come ask for her father's blessing."

I was ecstatic.

I hastily made a gift for my daughter-in-law.

Then I packed my bag

and headed straight to Istanbul.

But…

the jewelry store had been robbed,

and Aram was shot.

My poor Aram fell victim

to the political turmoil.

I looked for Mukadder.

They told me she got engaged and moved.

I found her father.

I sent him my address.

I figured even though I had lost my son,

I might still get to see my grandchild.

That's the story, honey.

The village is abandoned.

Everyone left one by one over time.

It's just been me.

I thought,

maybe, just maybe, someone would come looking for him.

Turns out I wasn't wrong.

You're here.

I'm here, Grandpa.

I'm here.

I'd made this for your mother.

She's going to be so happy.

You look just like my Aram.

Follow me.

Spit in it.

Sit down.

Let's put this here.

Let's grab this.

Give me your finger.

You three should stay here tonight. It'll be ready by morning.

What's going to be ready exactly?

Thank you so much, girls.

You literally found my grandfather.

And what a grandfather he is.

The guy looks like Gandalf. He's really something.

-He's the grandpa she deserved. -Absolutely.

What do you guys have on your bucket lists?

-Doing whatever makes you feel good. -Preach.

Yeah.

Would you like me to remind you of your dreams?

Please do.

Ada, remember the time

when you found out your father had cancer?

You had promised yourself

you'd find the cure for cancer.

-And you, Leylo. -Yeah?

You were going to be a singer.

You were the biggest Jennifer Lopez fan.

That's why we called you Leylo.

I remember.

And I was studying law, supposedly to become this fierce lawyer.

But what I really wanted was a family, kids, that sort of stuff.

I can't believe we're still together after 24 whole years.

-Yeah. -Twenty-four years.

-It should count as a dream come true. -You're right.

We still have so many dreams to fulfill together, girls.

Your wish is our command, honey.

I only have one thing to ask of you two.

Tomorrow, as soon as we're back in Ayvalık,

I want you to tie up any loose ends, okay?

In that case,

I luckily don't have a lot to do, honey.

I just have to sleep with Erdem. I can do that right away.

-Leyla! -Shut up!

-You're so silly. -What?

-This is my grandpa's house! -But you two have been getting so lucky.

I swear. I got the short end of the stick, for God's sake.

-Girl-- -Oh! I just remembered.

-Have you heard? -Heard what?

The cells in your vagina die off when you don't have sex for a long time.

-Rest in peace. -Oh, for God's sake!

Would you stop believing everything you see online?

-Whatever. -Did you hear what she said?

The cells die off? Come on.

Well…

I don't know about my cells, but I've been loving it.

Loving what, honey?

I mean, Fiko never turns me down

or leaves me hanging.

Honey, considering Erdem just got out of prison,

we might have a few early finales, but, I mean, it's okay.

Well, having an early finale

is sometimes better than having no finale at all.

-So stop complaining. -Really?

Who is this person who didn't give you a finale?

You can't just leave it at that.

-I'm not telling. -Why bring it up, then?

-Who is he? -What?

-No, you… Quiet! -But--

-You have to tell us. -I'm not telling you.

-I don't have to. -You can't do this!

-Fine, Ada! -For God's sake!

-Let's not disturb Gandalf. -Be quiet.

-I'll make you tell me tomorrow. -Let me lie down. I'll find out tonight.

"There's no incurable ailment."

"There's only the lack of will."

"There's no worthless plant. There's only the lack of recognition."

Avicenna.

Herbalism was widely adopted in medicine in the Ottoman Empire.

I inherited the skills.

So, what are these?

They're the spirit of the plant.

Their essence.

Anyone who understands them can cure many things.

So nature has an answer for everything. Is that what you're saying?

Only if you know how to look for it.

Have a spoonful before meals, not more.

Thank you, Grandpa.

Come on.

Are you sure you don't want to come with us?

I can't leave this place, honey.

But you can come visit me with your mother and your husband.

I'll pray to God that I can.

I'll tell you what.

Humans have three ears.

One on the left side of their head,

another one on the right,

and a third one in their heart.

Pay attention to what your heart hears.

That's how you hear God.

Thank you so much, Grandpa.

I really appreciate it.

Shadow!

There you are. Come.

The leftovers are all yours, Shadow.

Even the dog doesn't want it.

Hey, Fiko. Do you have a minute?

So it's going to leak again the moment I turn the valve back on?

Exactly. It's not going to stop. It's in really bad shape.

We need to completely scrape off this piece of the wall.

We have to bring down the entire wall?

Pretty much. It's an old building.

-This is bad. -Look at it. It's leaking all over.

The wall's basically crumbling anyway. All right. I trust your judgment.

The age-old question we've always been trying to answer.

How do you heal?

I found my grandfather.

Aram's father.

He wanted you to have this.

Maybe we only begin to heal

when we realize the past brings us not only pain, but also gifts.

Oh, Sevgi.

Come here, Mom.

-Sevgi. -Mom.

Oh, Sevgi.

Maybe love does have a healing effect,

and you start to get better when you choose to love and to be loved.

Maybe committing yourself to others can heal you too,

even if the cost is having to suppress your own pain.

Six.

Watch out.

Or maybe you begin to heal

when you take responsibility for the consequences of your actions.

Oh, beautiful

Don't you cry

Feqiyê Teyran

Has grown old

Weak

And sickly

Maybe some get closer to healing when they make peace with their past.

Erdem.

And maybe once we start healing, our relationships follow suit.

MÜJGAN, MY LOVE…

"Maybe, one day, Ada and Deniz will meet

so Ada can be a big sister to her."

It looks beautiful.

Thanks.

Can we talk?

Do you remember what you told me when you first saw me in the OR?

I asked you if you remembered me.

I know what it feels like to be abandoned by your father.

Perhaps…

that's why you felt like you knew me.

Since we went through similar things.

Maybe it's time to bury the hatchet.

You have a chance to do it in person, at least.

You are a wonderful man, Diyar.

I hope you get all the things you deserve.

Ditto.

I wish you well, too, Ada.

Oh, it's you.

I figured you'd never come here again.

I wrote an article.

I'd like your opinion on it.

My opinion still has value, huh?

HOW DO YOU HEAL? BY DR. ADA KORKMAZ

"How Do You Heal?"

I'm a bit busy now.

But I'd love to read this thoroughly.

Mr. Zaman, please pick a piece.

Look at it.

What do you feel?

Darkness.

An infinite darkness.

Now pick a piece for the darkness, please.

Pick another one, please.

Might it be that someone in your family fell into a deep, dark place?

Perhaps a well or something.

They dig these holes or wells

in order to irrigate the olive groves.

My grandfather's brother fell into one of those wells.

His father jumped in after him.

My grandfather lost both his father…

and his brother at the same time.

Please pick another one.

When you look at your son now…

what do you feel?

Do you think it's time

light filled the darkness between you and your son?

That was their destiny, Mr. Zaman.

Not yours.

For my grandfather's father, his brother…

and all my ancestors

who helplessly waited in the dark for death to arrive

to go towards the light…

I will light candles.

Thank you, Ada.

No, thank you.

I bet your article is great.

It deserves to be published.

I'm glad we're here.

Business is slow anyway.

This feels really good.

Isn't life wonderful?

It is.

But it's better with you.

Fiko, I need to tell you something.

I know.

I know, Sevgi.

What do you know exactly?

I know what you've been hiding from me.

I know about the thing you've been trying to hide from all of us.

But how?

How did you find out?

Baby.

You're my soul.

Your eyes,

your smile,

the sorrow in your smile.

They told me everything.

For me, you're life itself.

For me, Sevgi is life itself.

No matter where this path leads us, no matter how everything goes,

whatever you say,

whatever you want,

I'll be there for you.

Get up, then.

-What? -Get up, then.

-Up, up! -What's going on?

-We're skinny-dipping. Come on! -Seriously?

Let's go!

-We're swimming? -Yeah!

-Hurry up and come here! -I'm coming.

We're going naked?

I'll show you.

See? I took them off.

Oh, you…

ESCAPADES

I can't clean up the past

My hands are dirty

There's a path ahead of me

But it's all foggy

How many times can a heart be shattered

By falling from the same spot Over and over again?

Take it calmly or curse at me

Beat me up with your love

Here I am, standing before you

For the sake of the rain, don't say no

The world would be unbearable

A life without you, impossible

How many times can a heart be shattered

By falling from the same spot Over and over again?

Take it calmly or curse at me

Beat me up with your love

Here I am, standing before you

For the sake of the rain, don't say no

The world would be unbearable

A life without you, impossible

I'm glad I had you.

I'm glad I have you.

For the sake of the rain, don't say no

The world would be unbearable

A life without you, impossible

For God's sake!

What even is this?

What's this?

NOW IT'S YOUR TURN, ERDEM. LEYLA DESERVES THIS! - S.

You've got to be kidding me.

What?

Why?

For God's sake.

I can't believe this. Jeez!

There's no way, Fiko. We can't go on like this.

We'll keep losing money if we don't stop.

What are you suggesting?

We have to close up shop.

What?

Are you serious?

We just opened, Leyla. We worked so hard for this.

It's not working. Simple as that.

Let's just sell the place. It'll barely cover our debt, though.

But you can spend more time with Sevgi.

Who's that?

Is it actually a customer?

-Mom? -"Mom"?

Leyla!

Leyla.

I know we missed the grand opening, but we're here now.

-Welcome. -Thanks, sweetie.

You know what they say. Better late than never.

Right, Hasan?

Welcome, Dad.

It looks great.

Yeah…

I mean, we did our best. It turned out nice.

Good job.

I failed, though.

You two were right.

We're shutting it down.

What?

It's just not working.

You want to see your grandkids?

-Good afternoon. -Thanks.

Did you manage to sell your share?

I had a great offer.

Good for you.

This is a small town.

I hear they want to build a hotel here.

Yeah.

All right. Spend it wisely.

You, your father, your grandfathers have worked so hard on this place.

You really thought I'd sell it to some punk?

TITLE DEED

I didn't do it for you. I did it for the olive trees.

Thank you, son.

The trees will be so happy.

Let's have some tea.

Why didn't you love me?

Because my mom died because of me?

Because I'm good for nothing?

Why?

Diyar, I loved you so much even before you were born.

But I was so scared I wouldn't be a good father to you

that I drifted away.

Back then, I thought that was the right thing to do.

I was wrong.

I didn't know better.

How about we end this already?

Let's do that.

Hang around for a while.

I'm here for you no matter what.

Erdem!

My hands are full, Leyla. You have keys.

Hey, Mom… You go ahead, Dad.

Mr. Hasan.

Mrs. Leman.

Erdem, what's with the getup?

Well, Leyla…

Welcome, by the way. Well, it's…

I guess this isn't the most appropriate greeting.

-Yeah. -I'll just…

I'll go change, if you'll excuse me.

I'll go put on something else and greet you again. All right, then.

Well…

It probably has to do with Sarp's homework or something like that.

I guess.

Here.

What did Bert Hellinger mean by, "We're all what our ancestors dreamed of"?

Can the bottom line be merely poetic?

The systems we've been a part of for generations

aren't limited to our families.

Where we were born, where we live,

the language we speak, the religion we believe in,

the race we descend from, the culture we were born into,

the lands that sustain us, they all intermingle in a cycle

that leaves a mark on our lives and bodies.

And those marks are unique and exclusive, just like we all are.

That's why treatment should be unique and exclusive to each one of us.

Hello, my lovelies.

Here we are with yet another gathering.

We have to shut down Eleni's Tavern

because things didn't turn out the way we wanted.

We're hosting our good friends today. Show them the good friends, baby.

-Say hi! -Wave, good friends!

YOU'RE SHUTTING DOWN?

All right. My turn.

ARE YOU SERIOUS?

Because not every goodbye needs to be sad, right?

-THAT'S SAD TO HEAR -I'M NOT SURPRISED

So yeah… This is what we decided to do.

THE MEZES LOOKED GOOD

It happens, you know. Maybe it wasn't meant to be.

You know what they say. If it's not working, stop trying.

ALL'S WELL THAT ENDS WELL

All right. Now shoot the loop.

-WE JUST DECIDED TO COME -DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT

Thanks, baby. That's enough.

-Hey, Sevgi. -Yeah?

I need to tell you something.

I'm going on a tour.

From the Aegean coast to the Black Sea, then to Cappadocia.

Are you serious, Mom?

I've postponed it enough.

I figured it was time.

Besides, you're in good health.

You have Fiko too.

You two can have some privacy.

I'll be off after this, all right?

Go take wing.

It's long overdue, Mom.

-Thank you. -No, thank you.

For being here.

-My baby. -Give me a kiss.

-Love you. -Oh, Mom.

Well…

While everyone's here, there's something I need to tell you.

We're moving back to the Netherlands.

I'm not going to give everyone a hug. You all know I hate goodbyes.

But know that…

I enjoyed every single moment of the time I spent here.

I want to thank each and every one of you for everything.

If you ever visit the Netherlands, we'd love to see you.

Let's drink to that, then.

-Good afternoon. -Good afternoon.

-Hey, Flor! -Flor.

-All right, then. -Have a nice trip.

-See you, honey. See you. -Bye-bye.

Bon voyage.

-Let's go, baby. -See you.

-Hey, Dr. Ada. -Yeah?

Do you realize how much traction your article is getting?

-Seriously? -Yeah.

-Let me see. -It's everywhere. Check it out.

But I just published it.

Mark my words.

You're attracting attention. This will only get bigger.

I did apply for a job, you know.

-Good for you! Which institution? -I'm waiting for a reply.

-I'll tell you after. -Sure. Let's not jinx it.

-Exactly. -Okay.

Let's see your hands, people.

Mr. Zaman, please join us.

Darling, I've been hurt so many times

Life's been cruel to me

It's not your fault

I never fought

Against what I had been taught

Never disavowed them

I always committed myself to love

And thought I'd die

But I never died

Now it's spring again

And my heart finally saw the light of day

Now, as it turns into love

My heart comes back to life

Now it's spring again

And my heart finally saw the light of day

Now, as it turns into love

My heart comes back to life

I used to wonder if I'd ever have a family.

Well, I have one.

Yay!

There we go.

What the hell?

The past is like a black box.

No matter how damaged it may be,

the treasures it holds wait to be revealed someday, somewhere.

God help us.

So how about we show some gratitude

towards our family and our ancestors for that gift?

-Leyla. Sevgi. -Yeah?

Come inside for a second. I found something really weird.

-Come on. -What's up?

-What is it? -You guys need any help?

Maybe.

-Well… -Hey, Fiko.

-Where is it? I don't understand. -Don't you see it, Leyla?

There's a woman there. And some figures. It's a mural.

What? Hang on a minute.

Careful.

Easy.

Well, I'll be damned!

Wow!

Easy.

Eleni is still with us.

Leyla.

You can't sell this place, honey. Not after this.

She's right. We have to find a way.

That's right.

Well, I'm sure I can sell it on the black market, but…

It's not like that. I see.

-You should stay out of this, honey. -All right.

This is incredible. Eleni's still with us.

-She is! -Eleni's still with us!

-I can't believe it! -Oh God.

-This is so beautiful. -We should let Ada know!

Girl, you won't believe what we found inside!

Ada!

No, you won't believe who just called me!

-What? Who? -Who?

I got a job offer, and I said yes.

They want me to move there.

-What? -Yeah! To another country!

-Which country? -That's a surprise.

-Tell us. Don't be silly. -That's ridiculous.

I'll tell you if you two agree to go with me.

Ada, honey. Don't make me say it. How am I supposed to…

Oh, baby. I told them about you, sweetcakes.

It'll be good for you too.

Dang it.

Sweetie, I really can't. I can't leave Mavi, you know.

-Bring her with you. -What?

-You heard me. -You can't be serious.

Come on. What do you say?

Are you guys in?

-Leyloş, what's with the huge bag? -I swear it's mostly Mavi's stuff.

-Call me. -That's ridiculous.

-Call me from the airport, okay? -Okay!

-Don't exhaust yourself. -I promise.

-I'll fly there if I miss you. -Is that right?

-See you, honey. -We'll call you. I'll look after them.

-Take care, Dad. -See you.

You keep studying hard, all right? Don't make your mommy cry.

-It's rolling away! -Don't worry, guys. It'll be fine.

I don't want it, Mom! No! I swear I have money.

What's in this, Leyla, a human?

-Guys, just put it in there already! -I'm getting in.

-You going to fit in there? -Sure. Don't worry.

See you all. Sarp, you know how much I love you.

-Easy! -All right. I've got her.

Goodbye, everyone! Take good care of yourselves.

Let go. I've got her.

-Drive safely. -See you, Mom.

-All right, then. -Let me just…

-Come, Muko. -Okay. I've got Mavi.

-You have your passports, right? -Yes.

-Phones? -You won't tell us where we're going!

You'll find out at the airport.

All right, then.

Let the Far Trip begin!

-Off you go! Have a nice trip. -Have a nice trip!

See you all!

Come here, you. It's okay.

Our past is like a black box.

No matter how damaged it may be, all the things inside it remain safe.

But they can transform.

None of us had any idea

that the trip we embarked on that day

would change our fates forever.
