And cut.

Whoo!

Ooh!

Congratulations, ma'am. You did great!

Really? Thanks a lot, Nesli.

AS THE CROW FLIES

Will you promise to never stop loving me, all right?

1. DAILY JOURNAL - REDW - 12

No! Müge, huh?

5. THE OTHER SIDE - MON5- 6.5

You gotta be kidding me.

Hey! How about some champagne for breakfast?

I mean, we have to celebrate, don't we?

Of course, hit me.

- Looks good. - Oh, thanks.

You're something, aren't ya?

And, of course, champagne is your specialty.

Of course.

All right, everybody! Let's drink to success!

- I don't think we'll have problems there, - Stop.

- Right, Kenan? - Cheers.

Wow! Is this really happening? God!

I guess I'm still in shock.

Oh my God.

C'mon, we've got the ratings, isn't that enough for you?

Oh fuck off, Gül. All right?

She's gonna put us through hell at some point.

It's not just a question of if she can pull it off,

it's about integrity.

Oh, come on.

Let's wait, all right?

Uh... Hi, ma'am.

Oh, hi, sir, I hope you don't mind.

Um, just to check, I wanted to get your approval for the offices.

You want us to switch them?

Excuse me, what?

Uh, Müge, um, wanted the offices moved around, she said...

...she wanted us to move the green room because she thinks

it's too far away from the conference room.

I'm sorry, didn't you know?

Hmm. I've been made aware of it.

Kenan, you're...

okay with it, right?

Umit will handle it, all right?

About the restroom...

- Huh? - She...

requested an individual restroom for her office.

We'd have to do some renovations.

Okay, sure, I'm on it, hon. I'm gonna be handling that.

I told you, Gül.

Take it easy.

I'm on top of it, okay?

Have you heard from Lale recently?

Oh, so suddenly Lale matters to you?

I just wanna know how you're doing.

- I was being kind. - All right.

I move from room to room.

I eat enough to keep me going.

That's my life.

I LIKED IT, GUYS

SHE'S GOT RIZZ, FELLAS

IT'S MÜGE TÜRKMEN FROM NOW ON...

You fucking kidding me?

Oh, hi there.

I could go for a drink right now.

It's pretty early...

Don't be a buzzkill.

I've wanted to say something.

- Müge's just having some... - Oh, fuck Müge, okay? Pfft. That old hag.

Well, her ratings are really good.

She's not gonna last very long.

Don't worry about Müge.

I have a proposition for you.

I want you to find out what Yusuf is up to.

Re... really, I don't...

Are... are you guys not together, or?

Oh, you sweet little princess.

You think I'll give up without a fight and just let him get away?

Listen, Aslı. Find the slut he's with,

and you'll get a three-year contract from me, all right?

Well, I...

your offer is really compelling and all...

but when it comes to Yusuf's love life, um...

I'm confused how his romantic partners affect our network.

Güliz, look. Please don't do this, it breaks my heart to see you this way.

C'mon, he's a jerk, you don't need him anymore.

You're gonna be fine, Güliz.

You're so down and sad, I'm starting to worry about you.

I don't think you understand. We're meant to be.

He just keeps fucking up my life.

That shithead.

But it's not hopeless.

No, this isn't over yet.

What am I doing asking you about it?

That's my offer.

Go on. Get moving! Come on!

Isn't it true everyone wants to witness their own funeral, Lale?

Let's put on your seatbelts. Come on.

This is unbelievable.

I love this school.

Look, Mom, today all my friends signed my uniform.

- Do you wanna see it? - Sure, honey.

Looks muddy or something.

Once you wash it, it's gonna come off.

Let's not wash it.

- We'll keep it the way it is. - Okay.

Mila, please. That's enough.

It looks amazing, sweetheart.

Thanks, Mom.

- So, Mom, are we going somewhere else? - How about some lunch?

No, I mean...

Like a new house

we're moving to.

Our new school.

That would be great, yeah. Melisa, are you all set, honey?

- Uh, yes. - It's settled then.

A cheeseburger for Ms. Mila. And I'm gonna have the salmon salad.

- With white wine vinegar? - That'd be great, thank you.

Lale, I am... I think you did the right thing.

Ömer, please.

Not right now. Okay?

- Of course. - Thanks, I appreciate it.

What are you gonna do there?

Are they gonna make you report in French?

No, no way. She isn't gonna report, she'll be at home all day, every day.

That's what she did the last time.

Mila, why are you being this way?

We can try new hobbies or get into some new activities,

it could be fun.

Mm-hmm. Sure, Mom.

Your burger's gonna be cold, sweetie.

Come on, eat up.

And you better let me have a couple fries.

Is that Lale Kıran?

Yeah, it is. That woman should be ashamed of themselves.

Did you see that video?

Of course, I saw it on YouTube. Mother of the Year, huh? God!

- I feel really bad for her daughters. - It's sad.

- Okay, maybe it's time to go. - Are you serious?

Excuse me, we can hear you guys.

Stay calm, baby. Mila, sit down, will you?

No, not yet!

All right.

These people are being rude to us.

Lale, I'm so sorry, ma'am.

Will you calm down? Let's get out of here.

You're gonna let them win?

No, they can leave.

Okay, fine.

THE COURSE OF THE DAY EMRE YILMAZ

That's it from me today.

Tune into tomorrow and I'll be sure

to bring you compelling stories, clear reporting, and a few special guests.

Goodbye for now.

Cut!

Good job, man.

- Hey, great job, sir. - Thank you, man.

Good stuff, thank you, guys. I'll see you all soon.

See you, sir. Take it easy.

Are you just gonna stare at me?

Are you hungry?

What have you got?

I guess you had no trouble hosting the show alone on day one.

That was hearing from a star, wasn't it, Aslı?

You know, I just have more breathing room.

Oh, by the way, I'm sorry.

I heard you guys split up.

For the time being, at least.

Oh, I wanted to keep you up to date.

I thought you'd want to know what happened after you left. Do you?

No.

I really don't.

Güliz is angry.

I mean, obviously.

She thinks maybe you're seeing someone.

Tell me.

You're asking me if I'm seeing someone?

You mean it?

I mean...

she said you told her that

or that's what she took from what you said.

How's this any of your business, Aslı?

Oh, I mean, come on. You must know I'm curious about it.

I want to be in the loop for everything. That's why I'm asking.

It's not like I'm gonna run and report back to her.

You can be honest with me, all right.

Is that why you came over?

I don't know, what do you think?

I'm not sure.

Did you wanna... talk about something else?

No.

No, I mean, I don't think about it. I don't let myself fantasize.

But tell me, do you want to?

Fantasize about it?

Or commit to it?

You're kidding me, right?

Oh, okay, I get it. So you're so chivalrous, such a good guy,

bravo, that's nice!

Say it! Tell me I shouldn't fall in love with you

because what happened didn't mean anything.

My God! I can't fucking believe what an egoist you are!

It's not true at all. You hear me?

Not everyone loves you like Güliz, all right?

Get a grip, for the love of God!

All right..

So good we got that out of the way.

Yeah, I agree.

Well, then, I hope that you have a great life.

It's so sweet how you two are so in love.

You guys should really tie the knot.

In fact, I'll pay for your tux, okay?

Just please don't forget to invite me.

Hello? Hey, Güliz, how you doing, girl?

Listen, I want to take you up on that offer you made this morning.

Let's get it in writing. We'll make it official.

Because I'm going to find her for you.

That's right, I'm going to find out who that slut is.

FOLLOWING

Hey, can you put her drinks on my tab?

Whoa.

I thought you'd be long-gone by now.

You can't get out of Türkiye that easily. Come on.

Have you seen Müge?

And don't tell me you don't care about ratings, okay?

Oh, Müge.

I guess everyone has their moment, Aslı.

Maybe she had it all along, but we just didn't see it. It happens.

Ugh! What are we to do?

Oh God, the rest of us are mere mortals in the presence of the great Lale Kıran!

Got anything to smoke that we can split?

Of course.

I'm not sure it'll be enough for you.

Pretty nice.

- I like this lighter. - Thanks!

Must not be an easy change.

To leave all that progress behind.

You think people in this business will forget about

my accomplishments?

Hey, honey, just keep more of these coming, okay?

All right, I'm curious.

Gotta be a little strange to see your own funeral.

I like it, actually.

- Hmm. - You should try it.

I guess I'm lucky, very few people get to do it.

Really.

I know.

You know Gül somehow worked her way up to CEO again.

I gotta admit I'm almost certain she spoke to Müge.

No doubt about it. No doubt.

I'm sure you don't give a shit, do you?

Let them eat each other alive.

You're gonna move to France, start some art gallery,

and just work there for the rest of your life.

Hmm?

You may as well be painting rocks in Datça like Müge.

I mean...

everybody's waiting for the stars to align

and move on to something better, right?

Exactly. I was thinking that too.

Maybe I'll turn into a little star

on the huge frontier of the Milky Way.

A star you can only see if you've really got your eyes peeled.

You're not moving.

Holy shit! So you're not really leaving, are you?

Ha!

FRAGILE

Go ahead.

Just say it.

It's okay.

Just be honest.

Get in here.

We had sex.

Yup.

Oh...

Hang on, I'm sorry. I should say, "We screwed."

We fucked right in the doorway.

I'm not making it a big deal. Why would I do that?

I'm not your fool, you understand?

It was just two of us banging because I'm a career woman.

Besides, they love me. Everyone!

Everyone adores me.

And tomorrow Müge's going down.

But who cares?

Because I know you don't adore me.

I don't care that you don't love me.

I don't know what love is.

Besides, I don't have time for that bullshit.

Love is just fucking useless, you know?

I don't think about you like that.

Well, I do, actually, yeah.

I imagine...

lounging on your couch.

Just telling you everything.

Standing next to you in the studio.

Trusting you to be there.

You just do mundane things that I'm so in awe of you. Seriously.

You're... You're just so weird.

And you...

you have a big heart.

You're extraordinary.

You know what?

Güliz is waiting for you, okay, so go back to her!

Because you think I'm crazy, don't you?

I'm outta my goddamned mind, right?

Fuck it, who cares? I'm out of here.

Aslı, don't leave.

Don't leave me.

Aslı, I love you.

You're the one, it's always been you.

Aslı, I'm in love with you.

I adore your ambition, your drive, even if you're crazy, I love that too.

You're everything.

Stay with me, okay.

- Morning, Aslı. - Oh hi.

- Morning, ma'am. - Morning.

- Hey, everyone - Hi, Aslı.

How is everybody?

We made it to the end of the week.

All right, guys. I've got some exciting updates.

We're entering a new era in the history of our brand.

And let me tell you, ahead of us is a long and bright future.

It's gonna be amazing.

Starting today, we'll have two anchors on the show every night.

They'll be great together.

Looks like one of them just entered the building.

I'm guessing all of you will know her name.

You're joking.

I really think it's a good move.

Don't worry about the scandal, it's a bunch of rumors.

I don't care about that.

Güliz, come on, if it's about something else...

I swear to God that's not who she is. I'm sure about this.

All right, let's do it then. Whatever.

Good to see you, everyone.

Hello there. Good morning.

Surprise!

All right, everyone.

From now on, Lale Kıran and I will be co-hosting our news program.

That's correct.

Come on, the two of us.

- What do you say? - Oh, God!

As a team!

Both of us could completely rewrite our legacy.

- Aslı, I'm... - No lectures, please!

I don't want to hear that stuff right now.

Is this really how you wanted your story to end?

Don't you want to speak up and have the final word.

Let's... let's fucking do this, all right.

You said this season was going to be your last, right?

But no one can predict the future.

You didn't get your finale because of all that ridiculous stuff.

Listen, you could leave on your own conditions.

You're right, it's true. I said I'd be done.

I meant it too.

You want this. I know you.

You want a new ending, Lale.

Come on!

I know this is all... all news to you.

Uh, I'm happy that I get to be here again among all my colleagues.

I'm hopeful.

I'm glad to be here.

And I'm excited to get going.

Uh, to start, I want to hear what you have to say.

- Didem. - I'm ready.

Her report's on German finance

and their recent struggle with unemployment.

Uh-huh.

Um, as my research has proven, Germany is doing...

Naturally we sent out field reporters to all points of interest there

to gather more information.

What the hell's this?

What are you trying to do, embarrass me on screen?

Why would anyone give a shit about this story?

Move on. We'll talk about this later, but for now...

Next time.

Sure, let's move on.

Can't wait to hear the next brilliant idea. Huh?

Oh hey everybody. I didn't mean to intrude.

Kenan, Müge.

Could you come to my office, please?

We're in the middle of a meeting, Gül.

But I think you should come.

Think Kenan should be involved?

Aslı?

Even though we broke up...

is that possible?

Oh, you don't...

I thought you knew.

Knew about what?

Kenan's still there.

I don't know what you mean.

After you left, he stayed.

He's still their producer.

That makes no sense, Müge's there.

Yeah, I know.

Kenan became Müge's producer.

Müge's running the show.

No, no, that's impossible. Lale's gone.

Well, apparently not. For some reason she changed her mind about moving on.

Whoa! Are you...

Kenan.

Kenan! Are you okay?

Send someone from the medical team. Now! You hear me?

Kenan, is it your heart? Stop staring and go get someone!

- Look at me. Huh? - Lale's left...

Are you okay?

Lale...

Kenan, are you all right?

Come on, just talk to me.

Kenan?

Kenan!

Are they on their way?

Uh... I'm all right.

Sorry I couldn't join the welcoming committee.

Glad you're back.

Though I probably don't need to make you feel at home.

You're hardly new to this place.

Thank you.

- Are you okay? - I'm fine.

All right, I'm going to make a list here.

We'll need a new crew.

Oh! How're you feeling?

I'm okay.

Let's do this.

I want to destroy The Other Side.

Müge, let's meet tonight and get into it.

I'm in.

I have some new ideas.

We got this.

We're prepared.

We got this.
