THE STORIES AND CHARACTERS DEPICTED HERE WERE INSPIRED BY OUR HISTORY

NO ANIMALS WERE HARMED DURING THE FILMING OF THIS PRODUCTION

Governor Vasilius.

What's this silence about?

What?

Are you giving up already?

She sold me out.

She crossed me.

She ran off with the Turks.

She ran off with the enemy

With the backstabbers

Vasilius, calm your nerves.

You are overlooking something.

The unit coming from Nicaea.

Helena must have told Ertuğrul that they were on the way.

Maybe it's better that she ran away.

I didn't tell Helena there was a unit coming here.

Then, just like how you have spies here,

there must be spies in the castle of your emperor in Nicaea.

I know, Ural.

They are everywhere!

Damn it!

I just want to split all the traitors in two!

I want their blood.

I want to skin them alive.

They probably acted against you

in the hope that you'd retaliate.

You won't go after them.

Now is my time to shine.

Your desire for blood will be satisfied.

Everything is ready.

I've organized the other beys.

They will hold off Ertuğrul and Aliyar at the inn

under the pretense of a meeting.

And I'll go take back my tribe.

-And then -And then what?

And then I'll deal with Ertuğrul and Aliyar.

And of course, Helena.

Once I get back my tribe,

I'll kill Aliyar along with Ertuğrul first,

and then deal with Helena.

Then, do as you like.

Bring Helena to me.

Everything is planned, but

But what?

What is it, Ural?

If there happens to be unexpected resistance from the tribe,

I'll need your men to support me.

I trust my beys and soldiers.

However, I'd like to make sure

it will all go smoothly.

I just want to know that I have your support.

Go and reclaim your tribe.

You have my full support.

Go.

I heard Günyeli Hatun snitched.

If Acar Bey talks as well,

Aliyar Bey will cut us all down.

This can't go on.

We trusted Ural Bey.

We have been waiting in fear for so long.

How long is it going to keep going?

Why don't we end this already?

Are we waiting for Ertuğrul to execute us all?

-May I enter? -Come in.

I brought a letter from Ural Bey.

What does it say?

"I know you have been waiting for a long time for this,

but the moment has come for slaughter.

With the sunrise, bathe in the blood of those who have dared

tarnish the honor of my tribe."

Slaughter?

Are we going to revolt?

He wants us to unite with the other Turkmen beys

and slaughter everyone

once he lures

Ertuğrul and Aliyar Bey to the Hanlı Bazaar.

He says we'll blindside them when they have no leaders.

What if we botch it?

What if Acar Bey snitches on us?

Then we won't wait until sunrise

and we'll fight till our dying breaths.

Acar Bey is an honorable man.

He won't die an ignoble death by snitching on us.

Go sharpen your swords

instead of whining like a dog.

Did you forget for what cause we devoted ourselves?

Ural Bey is right.

We must unite now

and take what's rightfully ours.

We will take what's ours.

Whatever Ural Bey says in his letter,

we will follow his instruction.

Your brother trusted you with his life and you let him down, Dündar.

You let Doğan die because of

your fantasies about that woman.

Doğan, who was always so brave

Big brother.

Everything you say

is true.

I wish you'd left me at the fort

-so I could just die. -No!

Don't say that.

For God's sake.

You are my brother, Dündar.

How could I let them kill you?

Two wrongs don't make a right.

Your conscience will be your judge.

You're yet to realize the importance of our cause.

You don't realize your responsibilities as a bey.

You showed weakness and put us through worse hell than our enemies have.

Enough, son.

Say no more.

I can't bear seeing you two like this.

This pain wrecked us all.

I've had enough.

He's right, though, Mother.

I don't deserve to be a bey for my tribe.

I've done more harm than good.

I have no excuses.

-In the future-- -You have no future here, Dündar.

We can't show weakness in our cause, we need real men.

You may be my brother.

But from now on,

you are not a bey, nor an alp

of our tribe.

Here, sit.

My God.

Don't test me with my children.

Help me, God.

Help me bear this pain.

Please.

Mother, be patient.

Please.

Turgut.

Brother.

I see Doğan

as I look at the food.

You mean the fried meat?

Sure, why not?

Fried meat.

As I look at it,

I'm reminded of the times we carried sheep with him.

It's my win!

No, I won!

-I got here first. -No, I got here first!

I passed the line first!

It's my win!

I won!

He wouldn't stop boasting about that.

Even the sheep would outrun him if he would let it go.

But he wouldn't budge.

He was always arguing with us.

However,

when he declared his love to Banu Çiçek

That night, he was sitting by the campfire,

brooding like a dove, just like this.

I went and asked him what he was up to.

I'm going to ask Banu Çiçek to marry me.

But I'm not quite sure how.

Like this, brother.

Smitten by your love,

my yearning for you will reduce me to ashes.

Not bad.

I am smitten by your love,

and yearning for you will reduce me to ashes.

What else should I say?

You should go on like this.

Like this

Your gaze pierced my heart like an arrow.

Into the well that is your beauty,

I fell like the prophet Joseph.

I feel like a dry leaf floating through the desert.

How do you know all of this?

It's not so much me as the one that makes me say it all.

I was smitten by your love.

Yearning for you

He went ahead and said to Banu Çiçek what I had prepared.

Çiçek Hatun.

I was smitten by your love.

Your gaze somehow

pierced right through my heart.

You are a deep well and I fell inside you.

You are like a desert and I got lost within you.

What's all this gibberish, Doğan Alp?

I'm not quite sure myself.

Curses, Bamsi!

Whatever!

Here goes!

I'm not good at beautiful phrases, Çiçek Hatun.

Banu Çiçek.

Be my wife.

Please accept me as your husband.

If that's what you want

then allow me to

give you my life

and bring peace to your heart.

I'll make your tent my palace,

and you my safe haven.

Your troubles are my food, happiness is my sun.

And my life is your life.

Doğan Alp?

And when she accepted,

you should have seen him.

He froze like a deer before a hunter.

And he came to his senses after getting slapped on the cheek.

Thank God.

Did I just

Wait, I don't get it.

You said yes because I asked you to be my wife, right?

Indeed I did.

So I asked you to be my wife, and you accepted, am I right?

You said yes, you'll be my wife.

Correct, Doğan Alp.

Then let me go tell Ertuğrul Bey

so that we can go and ask Tuğtekin Bey for your hand in marriage.

Sure.

My God!

Poor Doğan.

Brother.

From now on,

all we can do is to think of Doğan

as our flag and let it fly.

It's our duty to pierce the armor

of the heathens with that flag, brother.

To pierce their hearts.

Helena Hatun.

May I enter?

Come in, Bamsi.

Bismillah.

Hi.

He

Helena Hatun, I

I came to ask if you need anything.

Thanks, Bamsi.

They are treating me well.

Sure, of course they will.

You are one of us now.

One of our women.

Helena Hatun

I need to tell you something.

Yes, Bamsi?

Helena Hatun

you know me.

They call me the mountain bear.

However,

even this mountain bear has a heart.

And it keeps beating

and beating and beating.

And it keeps on beating.

Don't laugh, Helena Hatun.

It's already hard enough to express my feelings.

Sorry, Bamsi.

I'm so excited I don't know what to do with myself.

All right, then. Let me keep going.

Helena Hatun, what I'm trying to say is that

In the huge heart

of this huge man,

it is you whom he cherishes.

And your love

This love is what keeps me alive, Helena.

Now, what I mean to say is that

Come to this mountain bear,

and if you so wish,

be my wedded wife.

I

I want you to

never stop laughing, Bamsi.

I want us to laugh together.

I can't live without you.

I

I want to be your wife, too.

I want to be by your side all my life.

Be by my side, then!

I'll be by your side as well.

Sure, why not? Of course we will be side by side.

Be by my side all your life

Let's live side by side.

Stand by my side.

Helena

Helena

I'll never let you leave my side.

I will never let you go, Helena.

I mean I'll have to go when there is war.

I will fight, and you will be weaving rugs here.

However, you'll always be by my side.

I'll never let you go.

Why are they beating the drums? Did they find out about us?

Bamsi!

This is different.

Different. What could it be?

Let me check it out.

I'll never let you go.

Drums are beating.

Traitors!

Traitors!

Traitors!

Kill the traitors!

Kill them!

Traitors! Traitors!

I brought them, sir.

Thank you, Aliyar Bey.

Die, you scum!

Banu Çiçek!

Calm down.

Do you want to go?

I want to see, Halime Hatun. Let me go, I'll just watch.

I want to watch her die.

I'm no traitor.

You can't do this to me.

We have procedures.

There is law. Let us go.

Father, you must do something!

Bastard!

You bastard!

-Sir! -Sir!

Showing mercy to the traitors means

betraying those who have been hurt by them.

Burn in hell, Aliyar.

You betrayed your father.

You betrayed your brother.

You betrayed our traditions.

Burn in Hell!

We are at war with the heathens.

We have enemies that dare

tarnish our honor,

our belief,

and our traditions.

We can't turn a blind eye

to the traitors among us.

Now,

justice is served, and the culprits eliminated.

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Forgive me, sir!

I was fooled by my father.

I beg you.

You trampled on my dignity.

Forgiving you now

would be unhuman.

They got what they deserved.

Burn in Hell.

All evil shall be brought to justice.

I said I'd let you know every time I killed your men.

The unit coming from Nicaea

is no more.

The soldiers at your castle

are no more.

I piled them all up, Teo.

And now,

it's time to raise our flags.

We took down a thousand for one.

Now, we are victorious,

and the traitors defeated.

Long live Ertuğrul Bey!

Long live Ertuğrul Bey! Long live Aliyar Bey!

Long live Ertuğrul Bey! Long live Aliyar Bey!

Send Ertuğrul and Aliyar a letter.

Tell them that

Ural Bey is

trying to trick you into taking his side.

Tell them that it's time to unite and take measure.

Ertuğrul Bey and Aliyar Bey suspect that we meet you in secret.

What if they distrust our words?

Then,

tell him that Ural is threatening to

attack our tribes with the help of Vasilius and his men.

Spring has come.

Tell him that you will have to

leave this cursed land along with your tribes.

They can't afford for three tribes to leave right now.

Then what?

Then, while you hold them off at the inn,

I'll reclaim my tribe.

Since there'll be no one to resist,

we will settle it without any bloodshed.

What about Vasilius?

Will you keep working with that heathen after you take back your tribe?

By staying at that heathen's fort,

am I betraying my tribe and our traditions?

Is this what you mean?

Vasilius already fell into my trap.

He thinks that

I'll take you and leave these lands.

I'd never walk out on the Hanlı Bazaar,

or the riches of Karacahisar.

You should all know this.

Conquering Karacahisar is not an easy feat, is it?

I've already conquered his fort.

The gates of the fort are wide open.

And about Vasilius,

Ertuğrul dealt with the emperor's reinforcements.

Vasilius is trapped in his fort.

He has no strength left to fight and protect his fort.

Once we conquer the fort, the Sultan will acknowledge us.

We will hold all the riches and trade routes.

The real fight begins now, Aliyar Bey.

Everyone will show their true colors.

All the beys that sided with Ural are shaking with fear.

We showed them how it will end for them.

But you are right. They'll go on a rampage now.

They'll plot a coupe.

They will attack desperately.

Ural will even add Vasilius' support to his forces.

Plotters are not just within, Aliyar Bey.

My men are keeping watch day and night, sir.

-Kutluca. -Yes, sir.

Tighten the security.

Let our people know.

Anything could happen now.

They must be alert.

If anybody sees or hears something

they should let you know.

Yes, sir.

Take care, sir.

You too, Aliyar Bey.

Have a safe journey.

We have one last mission, everybody.

Let's go.

Did you get my letter?

Yes, sir.

All the beys and soldiers are ready to die for you.

You've proven that you are worthy beys of my father, Candar Bey.

However,

Acar Bey is

What about him?

We got news from loyal soldiers.

They executed him along with his daughter.

They killed Teo as well.

Acar Bey died honorably and didn't denounce any of us.

As long as I have honorable men such as Acar Bey,

let alone Ertuğrul,

not even Karacahisar could stand against me.

His and my brother's oppression

of my tribe will come to an end.

It's time we took

all the riches.

After we conquer Karacahisar

we will raid all the villages,

each one bigger than the last, until we reach Nicaea.

We will get all the riches

while also getting a taste of their blood.

We avenged you, Doğan.

God rest your soul.

Rest in peace.

We will protect

your memory, your wife,

and your child, brother.

That's true, brother. Don't you worry about it.

This mountain bear will take care of your child.

I'll raise him to be a fine man.

I'll teach him to use dual swords.

Don't you worry.
