He sent him some messages.
What kind of messages has he been sending?
He sent all these photos of you two together,
saying, "This is my family album."
So this must be why Cem ran away.
All because of Ömer?
Leyla, come on.
The only reason you haven't heard from Cem is he's stuck in London.
-Leyla, what's going on? -Hang on, Mom, just a second.
I need to speak with Cem Murathan.
Leyla, honey…
I know! You have something to say about it, I know.
The person you are calling is not available. Please--
-Is it almost time for Edis? Go check! -Okay, let's see.
-Let's go get her. Leyla! -Leyla!
-Hurry up, come on. -Come on!
We did so much work on this!
Okay, hold on.
Leyla, dear.
Let's go.
Whoo!
It's the moment all of you are waiting on.
Let's set down our glasses, please, and put your eyes up here.
Leyla, we wish you a lifetime of happiness,
but this wedding gift is yours alone.
Whoo!
Leyla! Say something to Murat!
THANK YOU, NEXT
So, did you and that ex come on vacations to Çeşme as well?
-Are we doing this again? -Never.
-I was just wondering, that's all. -Stop wondering.
-These are on the house. -Ah.
-Oh, thank you. -Thank you very much.
It's nice to see you back again, Ms. Leyla.
Thank you, it's good to see you too.
Okay, okay, VIP. Who'd you bring here?
I thought we left this in the past.
If you really want to get into it, though, I may have a few notes as well.
Well, I mean, we don't all lead such colorful lives like you do.
Yeah.
What was it?
"Dump the ex, find the next."
"Kiss first, then meet, take him on a date."
"Have your a-chef-tion." Something like that, wasn't it?
That happened after we broke up.
Not like you, darling Ömer, and your lady friend.
Hey, look at that. Are they fighting?
-Where? -Are you sure? Where?
We were still together when you two hooked up.
Then you were with her for one-and-a-half years,
18 months exactly.
Never mind. Mmm, dropping it, dropping it! I won't bring it up again, I promise.
Maybe we should just talk about it, get it all out in the open.
-Be done with it. -Ömer, I'm begging you.
The mood was so nice until just now, please.
No, no, let's just talk.
We're not gonna be able to stop this. Babe, can you try to stop this?
Leyla!
Let me capture this. Let me take a photo of you.
-Great idea. -Smile. Yeah, that's it.
-Can you smile? -Cheese! Good, good. Look up.
-Magnifique. -Gorgeous.
Okay, get one with all of us.
-That's fun! Kerem! Come on. -Everyone, let's get in the light.
-Let me fix my hair. -Get over here!
Okay, this one? This photo's caption is "Make love, not war."
You got us out of the danger zone, Sarp. Nice work.
-Whoa! -Oh, hey, good timing.
Murat, you're double-fisting? What are you, 20?
-Esra, it's all for you, my love. -Do you have a drink? Hey, babe?
-Oh, you're still working on that one? -Man, I really don't get you guys.
You're all so involved in each other's lives.
Why?
-This is who I am and who my friends are. -Don't, Funda. Stop it.
I'm not into that kinda shit.
Ugh!
So hot!
Why can't you just relax a little? Let's go!
Let's go to the water.
Everything has to be a group activity.
-Can't I just do my own thing? -Quick dip in the ocean. Let's go!
-Let's go, let's go! -Stop it. I'm not up for this.
-Stop! -Kerem, let's go!
Come on!
Whoo-hoo!
Hurry, hurry, hurry!
Hey! Whoa!
Come on! Jump in!
-Wow! Hey, uh… -You look great.
-That was Sarp. -Who's paying?
Pay my drink bill!
Stop, stop!
-You-- -I could do a belly dance tonight!
Please do!
-Do it. -You want that?
-Please do it! -You should!
Anything for my hubby.
But never mind that, are we swimming tonight, huh?
-For sure! -You don't sound committed.
And I have an idea to make sure we don't get cold.
-Huh? -What was the name of that game again?
The ping-pong ball, you throw it in the cup--
Tequila pong! Tequila pong! We have to!
No way! Leyla, why don't we just drink it?
I'd prefer for my prey to be alive tonight. Did I mention that?
Come on!
-Esra! -No, no, no, wait! Listen up, listen up!
Truth or Consequence!
Shh! That's a bad idea.
Why is it a bad idea?
-Yeah! -We could play anything else.
Consequence! Consequence!
-Okay, I'll go. I volunteer. -I'm up first?
Okay, start with me. I'm not worried.
-Okay. -Truth. Go.
Have you ever cheated on Leyla?
Huh. One second, sorry. Just grabbing this.
Sarp. Sarp! Is there any limit to your stupidity?
Seriously, that's where you start things?
-This is the nature of the game! -You proud of that, Sarp? You happy now?
What can I do? You know what I mean?
-Oh, Ömer is here. -Welcome.
-This spot is amazing, man. -Come here.
Bring it in, dude. Welcome.
-All the broken ones are here. Come on. -Right?
-What's up, man? Ömer. -I'm a mess, brother.
-Balım, come here. -Hey. How's it going, man?
This is my childhood friend I've been talking about.
Balım and I go back to high school.
We already know each other.
Wait a minute, wait a minute.
You really had no idea Balım was going to be on the trip?
How would I? We'd barely spoken.
To me, Balim was just Buddy's vet, that's it.
She's not Buddy's vet.
She's an assistant.
But okay, then, if you say so, Ömer.
You remember our old vet moved to Bodrum during the pandemic
and then we had to find a new one.
I remember that, yeah. Okay.
You didn't know she and Sinan were friends back in school?
Baby, I swear on Buddy's life, I had no idea.
Buddy stays out of this part.
So then?
-No way. -Crazy.
-Buddy is one of my favorites. -What are the chances?
-How are you? -Good.
Nice to see you. Sure.
Okay, all right. All right, skip this part. Get to the real stuff.
How did you two get so friendly all of a sudden?
She and her guy had also broken up.
What do you mean "also"?
We hadn't broken up yet, Ömer.
Can I please keep telling the story?
Okay, I'm sorry, you can keep going.
But we hadn't broken up yet, so tell the story right.
Anyhow,
her four-year relationship had just ended.
I woke up one morning and just wanted to run and run.
She told me about how she felt worn down in the relationship,
how she'd lost her confidence in it.
Stuff like that.
Pretty familiar territory.
While she talked about it, I told her about myself.
But you couldn't just leave?
Not at first.
What's the matter?
I don't think I'm happy.
I feel…
…exhausted.
I know.
Oh, my God. She was a predator in the deep forest.
I'm serious, let me finish.
Explain all you want.
Just how could you not see that this was a trap, Ömer?
When it was right there in front of you?
She spotted you from afar and picked you out.
She baited you with her story.
You don't have to be fine.
I don't think it was a calculated move
just to bang or anything.
Thank you.
I'm not sure.
It was nice to be desirable.
I'd forgotten what it was like to feel wanted.
I think she felt that too.
And things took off from there.
The same night, huh?
That same night, you cheated on me, Ömer.
"Took off from there."
We couldn't keep kidding ourselves.
Our relationship was done.
Come on.
Can't be serious, Ömer.
Remember the evening when I proposed to you?
That was-- That was our turning point.
Nice, nice, keep going.
I'd love to hear all the stories that you'll make up about yourself
just to justify sleeping around.
It's not a story, I went through this.
This is what I experienced.
Remember, things were good at one point.
Weren't they?
Then the pandemic happened.
Losing my job, then moving to your place. We shouldn't have moved so fast.
Oh, so it's my fault we broke up.
Of course not. It's not your fault.
It's just that…
it wasn't time yet, for us.
It couldn't have been easy.
Suddenly, I'm there…
like some foreign entity that's invaded.
Make sense?
I thought about that after the fact as well.
It all quickly got super messed up between us, didn't it?
Moving in was inevitable, it was just the timing.
Timing wasn't great.
But I still would've proposed eventually.
I just needed to get my shit together first.
You supported both of us.
Meanwhile, I got a loan from my folks.
When that was the situation…
couldn't get it up, you know?
It was kinda humiliating.
-No libido left. -Yeah.
Your bad moods certainly made sense.
You were justified.
I was unhappy.
I know, babe.
It was obvious.
But I felt insufficient, I guess. I didn't know what I could do differently.
I began withdrawing from you.
And then we stopped talking, so I withdrew more.
And then you were even more distant, and it went on and on.
On and on to the forest. Right, Ömer?
Okay, I'm not telling you anything else.
-Wait, wait, hold on! -Come on.
Let me ask you one thing.
Balım, what happened there?
You never ended for me. That's what happened.
Let's stop keeping secrets from each other.
I can agree with that.
Before you get sick of this, anyway.
What are you doing?
-No, Ömer, it's too cold. Come back! -I'll keep you warm. Come on!
Whoo-hoo!
That's why my ears were burning this weekend.
I wondered who was talking about me.
We definitely talked about you.
Nothing else was left unsaid.
So, you've set the table again.
That's good. A reset can be a good thing.
What's wrong?
Oof.
I'm fine. Don't worry about it.
I guess I ate too much of your menu.
But this is exquisite, chef.
-Mmm. -Mmm!
Please, enjoy.
You're amazing at this stuff.
I am…
officially and completely…
under your command.
-Wish you the best. -Thanks.
Okay, now that…
we have attorney-client privilege, officially…
-Mm-hmm. -…tell me about Defne all ready.
She's good.
Chef, what's that smile?
Your eyes sparkled once you heard her name.
Chef, tell the truth, are you in love?
You left a hole and, um, Defne snuck in.
I've never seen you this happy.
Looks good on you.
I am. I'm really doing great.
That's great to hear.
Does Cem Murathan have anything to say?
I don't happen to really mind if he does.
Sorry, I have to take this.
Ömer?
Do you like it?
What am I looking at?
Sinan found this place, I might rent it. What do you think?
Huh?
Four bedrooms, two bathrooms,
one guest bathroom.
There's a fireplace, plus a garden, and a terrace.
And close to the city.
-It's gorgeous. -That's nice.
-You need to move there right now. -That's an awesome place.
One step at a time.
He didn't bother asking me if I wanted to move in.
He just asked me if I like it.
Well, I don't think he's there to take a shit.
Sarp!
So, he's probably going to ask you to move in.
Ah! The doc canceled again.
Anyone wanna take that bet?
I wasn't gonna say anything, but what is up with that guy?
-Seriously! -I made an effort last weekend.
We tolerated him.
Okay, who cares about that wang?
Ömer's got the house. When is the ring?
-We're there now? -What do you mean now?
They've been there for nine years, Murat.
Seven and a half years plus the separation
adds up to nine years.
-Nine years! -Nine years.
I bet you anything he proposes on her birthday.
Shh, stop it! You know something. What do you know?
No. If it were me, I'd give her a ring for her 30th birthday.
We're already--
-It's way too soon for that. -Too soon?
-Babe, what's wrong? -Everything okay?
I'm getting really tired of this, you know?
I swear to God, I cannot deal with this guy.
He's so bizarre!
You mean Kerem?
Shh, shh.
Tonight, we were supposed to finally have dinner with his parents.
Now, he has work!
-Well, what about the weekend, though? -Well… Yeah.
They're supposedly going to Izmir this weekend.
He always has excuses on excuses.
He works these night shifts just to get out of introducing us.
He's avoiding me!
Leyla, where are we with Tuba Tepelioğlu's book release?
Court granted a temporary injunction.
An expert's going over it.
She's opened up a photo exhibition.
-Huh? -What?
Same title as the book, Living With a Narcissist.
What?
-Wow. -Let me see, Leyla.
Ah…
Cem Murathan know about this?
His phone's been off and he wasn't at the hotel.
-Would you track him down? -I'm on my way.
-Thank you. -Okay. Beliz phone is being dialed.
Beliz is already at the crime scene, sir.
I'm going. We'll talk about this, Funda.
I should write a book about being with a doctor man-child.
Not funny, Murat.
-It's frustrating. -Guys, on the phone.
-Go talk in the other room! -Go in another room!
Psst.
Do you have an aspirin or something?
Because I'm about to have an actual heart attack.
I would ask you to try and calm down, but that doesn't seem possible, so…
They're only asking them questions about Cem.
Narcissism is…
What could Cem Murathan have done to all these women that's so awful
they had to come after him like this?
A narcissist starts with patterns of intense love,
showering his targets with affection.
He puts on a show and mesmerizes you with passion until he has you.
And then it all stops. He draws back,
making the victim doubt themselves.
He is a master manipulator,
altering your reality, making you feel inadequate.
He never reveals his true self, only showing as much as is convenient.
Most of all, the narcissist fears public exposure.
He's afraid for his weaknesses to get out there.
With this exhibition, we're saying that the narcissist is exposed.
We can all see you!
These are for you. Congratulations.
Ballsy.
Hey, Leyla.
You totally turned that around.
What better way to show them you're not that guy?
That single move was so powerful.
You turned this around.
Can Taylan is calling. I forgot to call him.
Hello. Mr. Taylan?
You're very quiet.
Yeah, well, still surprised.
Your response might have been a bit too much.
You still don't know me well.
I know. That's why I plan on buying that book.
Great move, by the way.
I guess you may have taken the wind out of their sails a bit.
But did it say, "I'm not a narcissist"?
Not so much.
Ask me, all of this was a masterclass in a narcissist's ego.
You're still punishing me, aren't you?
With an immediate narcissist's response.
Denying your personal guilt,
and reversing it to make the other feel guilty.
A typical attitude.
I'm just saying what you already know.
Just summing it all up.
So you know.
Pardon.
Mr. Taylan says hello. Shall we go to the office together?
-Yeah, I'd be up for that. -I won't be going, but thank you.
Ömer is picking me up soon.
-We're going to be house hunting. -Super.
-See you later. -See you.
See you.
-They're back together now. -Really?
Mmm, yeah, for a while now. It's been two months.
Today has been quite a ride.
I've been running around all day.
And then this incident.
God, I'm exhausted.
I'm not surprised, but Cem is a complete sociopath.
Yeah?
The man's incapable of contrition.
He could be Teflon-coated.
Everything goes over him, nothing sticks to him.
Oh! Funda and Kerem broke up. Did you hear?
-What? -We didn't talk yet, I've been busy.
Does he know about me?
-Who? -Cem, Cem Murathan.
I told him you were coming to pick me up, but I'm not… sure.
This is the place.
So, let me ask you something.
What are you asking me about?
Anything happen between you and Cem?
Ömer, you need to stop it. You're being crazy. Pfft.
Oh, what is this about? I thought this stuff was over.
I'm sorry, that was the last time.
I'd rather not fill the place up with furniture.
Maybe a couch over there.
Get a TV in front of it.
And nothing that's too old. I know that.
See you tonight.
Drive safely, okay?
Come on, boy.
Come on.
Let's go.
Maybe there's something special he's waiting for before asking you to move in.
Mmm.
It could be that money is still a factor.
Wasn't that the case before?
He's doing okay right now.
Been going out on dates a lot. Spending money on gifts.
-And the sex is good. -Ah, shut up.
This girl is bad!
You're not in a hurry to get married, though, that's a good thing.
Ah, sorry.
Hello?
-Back with Kerem? -She's back with Kerem.
Hey, honey, we're here. You should come over.
Oh. Okay, no problem.
See you at home, lovely.
Don't bother, babe.
Anyway, what was I saying? Oh.
So, it's not like you're rushing into getting married.
-That's what you wanted, right? -He can't help himself.
Where does he get all these women? Is there a catalog just for him?
-"Him"? -Mmm.
Good evening. Nice night for it.
Nice to see you. Uh…
-Good evening. -Good evening.
-It's nice to meet Cem's friends. -Thank you.
-Have a nice night. -Same.
-Enjoy the company. -Enjoy yourselves.
What's going on, Leyla?
You're making things up now.
I can promise you, Cem Murathan is the furthest thing from my mind.
-Guilty conscience, maybe? -What do I have to feel guilty about?
I-- I suppose I haven't told Ömer about anything yet, but…
Wait. I didn't say anything to you about him either.
What the hell?
I would like to talk about this issue.
Me and you have no issue.
Nothing to be discussed.
Why did you go back to him?
What did I do wrong?
This isn't about you.
I love him.
Truth…
or consequences?
I don't want to play this game.
Ömer is who I love.
Yet you can't seem to stop letting me into your head, Leyla.
Buddy, get off of me. Go.
Over there. Go over there.
I'm going into a hearing. Can I call you back later, babe?
I'll keep it short. Let's have dinner tonight.
-Okay, who with? -Just us.
-I booked us a table at Faberj. -Faberj sounds amazing.
Yeah, I have something to talk to you about.
Um, that'll be great. Uh, I'll see you tonight, babe.
What's the occasion?
Just wait a moment.
That'll be fine.
Thank you so much.
That's good.
Since I managed to secure that project with Queen N Crown,
Mr. Ahmet is asking if I'll be partner.
-Ömer, is this for real? -I know!
Yeah!
You got the Queen N Crown project?
And partner? That's great!
This is incredible news!
Ömer, my love.
Congratulations.
Oh!
You're amazing.
That's such great news to hear.
We finally made it.
And you'll be partner! Your talents are getting recognized.
A toast to me.
Cheers to you.
Congrats again, dude.
Yeah. Well done.
Congratulations.
It's really cool.
So, you know, I'm thinking about buying the place.
Might talk to the landlord. Huh?
Well, you don't lack options. You could buy this house, or one anywhere.
Let me know if you're leaving your old place.
It's closer to work. Be good for me.
Although, you know what?
Even if you start looking a little bit outside of the city,
the prices change dramatically.
Hmm. Well, yeah.
Kinda makes sense. I could move easily.
I'll be working alone, just drawing blueprints for a while.
So, commuting wouldn't be an issue.
Ah, damn.
If this place had a bigger yard, I could make an annex
and be able to build an office space.
Buddy's happy with the yard here, so I think he'd love that too.
I dunno.
It's really nice to have you all here.
-Of course. -Anytime.
He's moved into his own house now.
He's making a really good living as partner.
What was that thing he said?
There's a right time for everything, just gotta wait.
It's fine. I'm not upset or anything.
I also feel like we're not ready for marriage just yet, but I'm not--
Aww.
I guess, lately, he seems to have changed.
They aren't all bad changes, though.
I must admit, he's been more attentive than ever before--
…and giving a lot in our relationship.
She can't even criticize him, that's love.
-Good morning, kids. -Good morning.
Good morning, Judas.
What's going on?
"You're not lacking for options, bro. Go live in the sticks."
Whose friend are you really?
Be very careful. You better choose your words carefully,
or you won't be getting a birthday gift.
My birthday is on Monday, 12th June, Sherlock.
Unless we're doing it this weekend?
-Wow, bravo. How does she do it? -Nice going, Sarp.
In my defense, she would have known once she saw the lake house.
Oh! And everyone's going, right?
All of my favorite people?
Ömer organized it, as a surprise for you.
That's no problem, I'll just wipe the memory clear.
-No problem. -Eh?
First comes love, and then, eh?
Stick that somewhere else.
Let's get our meeting started. Sound good?
-All right. -Okay.
Oh! Birthday cake's here!
-All right! -Oh, here it is.
-Gorgeous cake! -Coming through.
-That's right. You see the candles? -Ah! Okay.
"Thirty, really?"
-This is my hair, isn't it? -Yes, it is!
One more thing, one more thing.
I have a little surprise, just one more gift for you.
-Can you get-- -Yes!
-My love. -Yes, Ömer?
I tried really hard.
I was going to get a hologram, but I couldn't do it.
Even so…
-Look. See? -Oh, of course.
Ah!
-Happy birthday, Leyla. -Happy birthday, sweetie.
-Wow, it's Mom and Dad. -Love you.
-Both of them! What a nice surprise. -Aw.
-You wanna say hi? -How are you?
Hi, Leyla's parents!
You guys sit here.
-All right. -Mmm.
Now that you're both seated, I'm going to try to blow out the candles.
-Go for it. -Okay, yeah.
-Make a wish! -Fine, I will.
That's it!
Everything was so great, thank…
you all for, um…
But something was missing.
How about it?
Leyla.
Huh?
Leyla.
Sweetie.
Wha…?
-Leyla. -What?
Oh!
Ömer, what are you up to wearing that?
Your breakfast is ready.
Come on, get up.
This is one way to wake up.
Just get up.
Okay, fine.
Get up now.
-Ömer! -Come on, get up.
It's way too early for this.
Come on, come on. Breakfast.
Want some coffee?
No, maybe just tea.
Not in a good mood today?
No.
Ah.
Today's your birthday for real, though.
Psst. So happy birthday, my love. The most beautiful woman.
Ömer, please, for God's sake.
We celebrated the whole weekend. Isn't that enough?
Birthday embargo starts now.
What's going on?
Did I do something wrong?
Are you mad at me?
Why would you think that?
I'm not mad at you at all.
I've just been feeling uneasy, I don't know what's going on.
Okay.
Maybe I should go back to my place. Start packing.
Right, Bud?
Yeah, okay.
You go to your home.
What's going on?
Since the party, you've been distant and won't talk to me.
Okay. What is your plan with me?
Like, can I expect to be…
Uh, are we just going back and forth forever with our belongings?
Nomadic lifestyle, just between two places?
And Buddy's been liking your place more than here.
He wants to be there all the time.
So, let's do it.
We'll move in?
Yeah.
I'm so glad we're ready to talk about living together again.
Hmm?
I'm all set to go.
I thought you'd prefer to wait a little bit.
Yeah, living together in this place was hard, of course.
Mmm.
But, you know, it's-- The new house is so nice.
I thought you might ask me to move in before you moved there.
Hmm. What else you been thinking?
I'm distracting you. You gotta eat your egg before it gets too cold.
Come on.
Ömer!
Truth or consequence?
-Consequence. -Consequence.
Uh-huh.
I dare you to live with me.
I dare you to be our children's mother.
I dare us to grow old together.
I do. I'd love that.
Ömer, would you like to play a game with me?
What is this about, Leyla? Hmm?
I was going to surprise you at the wedding table.
But we're already dressed up here, so we can just do this now.
Truth or consequence, Ömer?
That-- Showing up here, you got some nerve!
Ömer.
I just need you to pick one for me.
You want to talk about the truth to me? You?
Come on, Ömer.
Okay, truth.
Anything you'd like to confess? to me? You?
