In the name of Allah, The Most Gracious and The Most Merciful.
Why do I exist?
Why did I come to this world?
Does my existence carry a meaning, a purpose?
Help! Help! Help me!
Help!
Anyone out there, please help!
Have you ever wondered, "What did Allah intend
when he created the universe, all living things, and me?"
There must be a reason why he chose to create me.
Surely, He wouldn't have created me without one, right?
Save me! Help!
If Allah Almighty has a purpose for me,
then my destiny must have meaning too.
If my destiny has no meaning, no direction,
then what sets me apart from all the other creatures in the universe?
Help me!
I can't breathe!
Everything in this universe,
all the galaxies, stars, planets, black holes...
Why did He create countless entities
that lack the capacity to worship Him?
Help!
Why did Allah, who, as the Qur'an says,
is unique and incomparable and in need of nothing,
say "Be!" and bring everything into being?
Why does anything exist, when there could be nothingness?
MIGHTY - ARROGANCE - GREAT - GRAVE
Do you think you're a cop, Gökhan? A firefighter?
- Why would you put your life at risk? - Merve... Merve, I'm totally fine.
See? I'm right here.
Consider this.
What if Allah put me on a mission to save that child?
What if he was guiding me?
Who knows, maybe that kid is gonna change the world one day.
Maybe he'll achieve world peace or he'll find a cure for cancer.
Or maybe he'll grow up to be Hitler, Gökhan.
People turn out that way too, you hear me?
That's not how it felt.
Gökhan...
Don't you ever think about me?
What would I do if something happened to you?
You keep putting yourself in these dangerous situations.
You never used to act like this.
Since you got back from the army, it feels like...
Feels like what?
It's like you're intentionally looking for death, Gökhan.
What's worse is that you seem to enjoy it.
Why are you doing this, Gökhan?
Because...
'Cause I...
- I'm... - "You... You are different."
Hm?
What is this, Gökhan?
Who is this?
- Kübra. - Kübra?
- Mm-hm. - So you know her.
No, I don't.
Well, she said that you're different, so she obviously knows who you are.
Well, I don't know her.
Gökhan, why is she texting you if you two don't know each other, huh?
Everyone on this app can message each other. There's no restrictions.
I thought you said you talk about religion and spirituality and stuff on there.
We do.
Oh, yeah? So you're all just using Allah as an excuse to hit on each other?
- Merve, come on. - That's just great.
Please.
You should just ask her what she wants then, since you don't know her.
Isn't that what you just said to me?
- Are you serious? - I'm dead serious.
What do you mean... ma'am?
Merve, look, this whole thing is... it's crazy.
I promise you, I'll find out who this is and what they want.
Okay?
MASTER HAMIT CAR REPAIR SHOP
- Hey, Gökhan? - Yeah?
If I had saved that kid, the whole neighborhood would know about it by now.
No news from Serhat, Salih?
If you didn't keep bringing that guy up, I'd forget he even worked here.
You should be used to him not coming in.
I'll give him a call.
Eren, Ahmet, clean up around here.
I told you, you gotta keep it clean, let's go.
Come on.
The person you've called is not available.
Serhat...
Have a good night, Gökhan.
You too, guys. Enjoy the food.
Goal!
Salih, tell us the whole thing, from the beginning.
How'd it happen?
How many times must I tell you? Ask him yourself when he gets here.
As-salamu alaykum, guys.
What's going on? You told them?
- You know. - That's enough guys, come on.
They should put his name up on a plaque: "The Great Gökhan."
- Shhh, that's enough. Come on. - What happened to the car?
- It's a miracle you're okay. - Yeah, thank Allah.
Tell us what happened, Salih didn't do it justice.
- How did it happen? - Game comes first. I'll tell you later.
Come on! Come on!
Are you okay?
I'm great.
Ruşen, did you see Serhat around today?
No, I haven't seen him.
That's just great.
Our most important game, and we're missing our best striker.
- He'll be here. - I hope so. I hope so, Salih.
Everyone ready?
- Come on, let's go, go! - Let's go, come on!
All right, I'm coming. Mıstık, the ball!
SEMAVİ: WHAT DO YOU MEAN, MA'AM? KÜBRA: WHAT I MEAN IS WHAT I SAID.
SEMAVİ: DO WE KNOW EACH OTHER?
KÜBRA: I KNOW YOU. YOU ARE DIFFERENT.
SEMAVİ: YOU'RE PRETTY ODD YOURSELF.
Ridiculous.
KÜBRA: UNIQUE ISN'T ODD.
SEMAVİ: I HAVE A GIRLFRIEND.
Sorry.
Where is my, uh...
KÜBRA: MERVE IS THE RIGHT PERSON FOR YOU.
SEMAVİ: HOW DO YOU KNOW MERVE?
Come on, dude! Get dressed!
Unless you're gonna play like that, huh?
Ooh, Mr. Serhat.
Yeah?
You're not coming to the shop, not picking up your phone, no one's seen you around.
Where you been?
Hey, can I tell you something, man?
You gotta watch where you say that, huh? People will think we're together.
Serhat, you gotta get it together.
No, and you can't fucking make me.
What're you gonna do, huh? What, are you gonna run to my father?
"Excuse me, sir," Mr. Hamit, your son is being naughty."
Is that it?
Have you been drinking?
Had a few before I got here.
That's great, Serhat. You're gonna play like that?
Don't you worry, Captain.
You know me, I play better when I'm drunk anyway.
How are we supposed to play without you two? What's taking so long, huh?
Come on, let's go!
Over here! Pass it to me!
- Nice! Good pass! - Coming at you!
Captain, over here! Captain!
- Captain, over here. - Behind you. I'm open!
- Over here! - Right here!
- Come on! - Shoot!
- Goal! - You see that?
- Defense. - See?
- I told you. - They're messing around.
Come on. Ziya!
- Right here! - Pass it! Pass it!
Come on! Come on! Go! Go!
- Damn it! Damn! - Let's go!
- Come on, Salih, you got this. - Good job, Captain.
- Careful! Head on! - Over here! Here!
You got this!
Good game, guys!
Good game! Bring it in!
Ooooh!
One, two, three, Ormancılar, hey!
- That was great. - Good game, everyone!
Come on! Let's celebrate, Rakis are on me.
Heyyyyy!
You're so fucking lucky.
I buy all the rounds and I score all the goals.
I'm out. Have a good time, guys.
Where are you going? You gotta come with us.
I got a lot to do tomorrow.
- Boss... - Dude, you gotta come.
Let's go. Just drink water, yeah?
- It'll be good. - Come on.
All right, I'll go.
That's everyone, let's go!
Hurry up, get changed.
- A great pass. Well done. - Thanks.
Let's go, boys.
Congratulations, guys.
So, guys, one last game till the championship finals, huh?
We're gonna win.
- So come on. Cheers. - Yeah.
Cheers.
All right, enjoy.
Good job tonight, guys.
Salih, slow down, you're gonna choke.
I did better this game. I earned it.
Yeah?
That pig'll be fine.
You're the one I heard was out there tempting death again today.
That was nothing.
Gonna kick the bucket one day, trying to be a hero.
Something felt different today.
What do you mean?
I don't know.
Like there was something I was meant to remember.
Or the opposite, there was something I forgot.
Ah ah ah ah ah ah!
Don't start with the philosophical stuff, for heaven's sake.
- Gökhan? - Yeah?
Is it 'cause of health issues?
Is what because of health issues?
You don't drink, so I was just wondering if that might be why.
That's right, dude.
It is because of health issues.
But thankfully, not physical.
It's a mental health issue.
He used to be able to kill a whole bottle of raki on his own
and still walk a straight line.
Hm.
He hasn't had a drink since he returned from the army.
Did something bad happen?
Nothing bad had to happen, man.
It's just part of our faith.
Not to let this poison enter our bodies and cloud our minds.
For heaven's sake.
Who would have ever thought that Gökhan, the party animal,
would be the one putting on the brakes, huh?
Well, Allah works in strange ways.
Yeah.
Allah must have a plan, huh, Serhat?
Sure.
Listen.
What?
What'd you get from that guy?
What guy?
Serhat, you know who I mean.
- You're not using again, are you? - For heaven's sake.
"Who did you talk to?" "What did you do?"
Are you my father? Just give it a rest, huh?
Oh, he totally kicked your foot there, right?
Have a good dinner, guys.
Where you going?
- We're having a good time. - It's getting late, I should head out.
I have to work in the morning, gotta get up early.
- No, put that away, I said I'm paying. - It's okay.
All right, have a good night. See you, Salih.
- See ya. - See you.
Did I... Did I say something wrong?
No, it wasn't you.
No, man, you didn't do anything.
Serhat just made him tense. He likes doing that.
Just enjoy your dinner, okay?
All right.
Hey, Mom.
Mom.
- Nihat? - It's me.
I'm home.
Mmm.
Let's get you to bed.
- You'll be sore here. - You made it home?
I'm here, Mom, I'm here. Oh! Here.
I must've drifted off out here.
I bet.
- Come on, turn off the TV. - Yeah, I'm going to bed soon, too.
- My back feels so stiff. You too. - I hope you sleep well.
Our guest is accusing you of lying for political gain,
or of twisting the truth.
I'd like to give you a chance to respond.
KÜBRA: I'M LOOKING AT MERVE RIGHT NOW.
SEMAVİ: RIGHT NOW?
KÜBRA: RIGHT NOW, BEFORE, AND AFTER.
What are you saying?
SEMAVİ: SO YOU CAN SEE MERVE?
Watch what you say.
KÜBRA: ALWAYS AND EVERYWHERE.
Always and everywhere.
All right gentlemen, let's try to keep it civil tonight, please.
Yes, of course.
You were saying...
KÜBRA: LISTEN TO YOUR HEART. OPEN YOUR EYES. FREE YOUR MIND.
{n8}LISTEN TO YOUR HEART. OPEN YOUR EYES. FREE YOUR MIND.
How can this be?
Help!
Help me! Please!
{n8}YOU ARE DIFFERENT
You are different.
I think it's someone we know.
Then who could it be?
Maybe it's one of the friends of Gülcan's who has a hopeless crush on you.
- Enough, Merve. - Enough of what?
Am I wrong?
- Waiting for a chance to hook up with you. - Can we please drop this?
I'm just saying.
Or maybe it's one of the guys from the neighborhood.
No.
No way. They're not smart enough for something like that.
Fine, then who do you think is doing this, Gökhan?
Wish I knew.
I'm so sick of this place. Look at it. It's like a cage.
I feel like I'm dragging my feet here every day.
You can quit work when we get married. You can be a housewife.
Oh, really? No kidding?
I'll just sit at home and just depend on you, huh?
Why not? I'll give you pocket money, you'll have a nice life with your husband.
Ah, right.
How's that sound?
Hmm, maybe. I guess we'll see.
Hey, when are you gonna talk to your boss about becoming a partner in the business?
I'm not sure. I feel weird about it.
Especially 'cause of Serhat.
He was the one who said that Serhat would run that business into the ground,
and you should be his partner.
He said it once and then never brought it up again.
All right, then you should bring it up, Gökhan.
Just ask. Find out what he's thinking.
Okay, I'll talk to him tonight.
Promise?
My father keeps asking when you're going to come and ask for his blessing.
I promise.
All right.
See you later.
Give me your phones.
- Boss, we were just checking something. - Fine, now I'm checking something.
Boss, what're you looking for?
- Soultouch, it's an app. - What "touch?"
Soultouch.
Here you go.
Back to it.
What's up, Salih?
I'm trying to get all these gears checked.
They're supposed to pick it up tomorrow. How're we gonna finish all this, Gökhan?
Serhat's not here, of course.
He's not coming. I watched him order another bottle just as I was leaving.
I'm gonna talk to Mr. Hamit soon.
About what?
About becoming a partner.
You should. You've been running this place for years. You deserve it.
Thank you, Salih.
Speaking of partners, look who just walked in.
Welcome, boss. I hope this means that you are feeling better?
No, son. Serhat hasn't come home.
His phone is off, so I thought I'd check here.
What did he do this time? It's always something with that kid.
Don't worry, boss, I'm sure he's around, we'll find him.
You should sit. Boys, bring tea for the boss.
That's all right, I have to get to the clinic. See you, son.
Want one of the boys to come with you?
Nah, no need.
You should have at least told him that you wanted to talk.
He's got enough to deal with already. Another time.
Ahmet?
Yes, boss?
Check the coffeehouse, see if Serhat's there.
Yes, boss.
Uh, is there a Gökhan Şahinoğlu here?
Yes, sir, that's me.
Nice to meet you. My name is Haluk, Fırat's father.
I came here to thank you.
Welcome, sir, please come in.
Come in.
How is Fırat? He's okay?
He is. Thanks to you. He's all right.
Thanks to Allah.
And the man in the front seat?
He was our driver.
My condolences.
That's kind, thank you.
I mean... I just, uh...
I don't know how to express my gratitude. If it weren't for you, we...
No, please, don't even mention it.
Anyone would have done it.
No.
They wouldn't.
And apparently, they didn't.
They just stood there and watched.
If...
If you hadn't been there, I, um...
Fırat was meant to live a long life.
Simple as that.
Fırat has Behçet's disease.
The treatment isn't working.
He's getting worse every passing day.
- Well, uh... - Allah grant him healing.
- Let me, uh... - That's not necessary-
No, no, no, no. Uh...
Well, thank you so much, again, may Allah bless you.
May he bless us all.
May Allah bless you.
KÜBRA: WRONG DIAGNOSIS!
KÜBRA: THE TESTS ARE WRONG!
Haluk, wait!
Have you taken Fırat to another doctor?
No. Should I?
Not sure.
Is it possible the tests are wrong?
Maybe, but our doctors...
Well, they're the best in the country in this field.
I'm sure they are the best, sir.
But if another doctor saw him, maybe...
Thank you again.
May Allah bless you.
Are you trying to mess with my head?
All right, bring it up.
DELETE APP
THIS APP WILL BE DELETED. ARE YOU SURE?
Hey.
What is it? What's wrong?
I'm just so full of it, Salih.
Huh?
I keep acting like a fool.
An absolute fool.
Gökhan? Hey!
Where're you going? We're swamped! Gökhan!
I'll be back tonight.
They always bail.
That doesn't make any sense to me.
Ahhh.
- You came, now you're leaving? - That's right.
I only have 98 days left!
- Hey, welcome back. - Oh ohhh.
He only has a week left.
That's right. After that, I'm all done.
Mm.
- What's next? - What's next? Get married.
Have some kids.
Get down!
Everyone get down!
SALİH: SOMEONE SAW SERHAT AT KÜLHAN.
Where the hell did you get this weed?
Serhat!
Shit, it's my brother, get up!
- Wait. Give me that. - How... How did he find us?
Serhat!
Well, well, well. Mr. Gökhan.
What, are you trying to kill your father?
Yeah, but only psychologically.
Killing the father is crucial.
Yours already kicked the bucket... so you have peace.
- Let's go home. - I'll pass.
I'll be here for a few more days.
Tell your boss Hamit not to worry about me.
Come on, you're gonna catch something here,
You'll get lice, yeah? Let's go.
I'm not coming.
- Serhat, get up. Come on. - Let me be.
- Come on, let's go. - Let go!
- Come on, get up. - Dude, let go! Let go of me!
Leave me alone!
Look, I just need to lay low for a little bit.
Where were you tonight, Mom?
Where do you think I was?
I went to Feride's.
What's going on?
Gülcan's out too. I called her, but her phone's off.
Do you know where she is?
Uh... She's probably seeing a friend, where else would she be?
What?
Why are you doing this, Mom?
What am I doing, son?
Mom, we just put her back together. Got her back on her feet.
She... That's her.
Welcome back, Gülcan.
- Where were you? - I was at a friend's.
I called but your phone was off.
- It died but I'm home now... - You didn't tell us where you were going.
I told you she was probably with a friend and you shouldn't worry.
Well...
Never mind.
- I'm going to the shop. - Okay.
There's groceries in the kitchen.
She probably hasn't eaten anything. Make her some food, all right?
Don't wait up. I'll be late.
Come here.
My sweet mother.
You're going to be late for work. Get going.
- Allah be with you. - Bye sweetheart.
{n8}- Ah, Ahmet! - Yes, boss?
{n8}INSTALLING SOULTOUCH...
{n8}- Could you make me coffee? - I'm on it.
KÜBRA: ALWAYS AND EVERYWHERE.
Impossible.
NEITHER FORTUNE NOR MISFORTUNE CAN BE AVOIDED!
You fucked up the car!
You call that shit driving?
Look what you did!
My car is ruined!
You're gonna pay for that!
Hey, what's your name?
Hey, calm down!
Don't tell me to calm down! I just got this fixed!
Huh? What's the matter with you? Tell me!
You have to pay for that!
I could've died, you stupid asshole!
Meaning, "With Him are the keys of the unseen."
"That which no other may know, except Allah himself."
So anyone who claims to receive information from the beyond
is committing a grave sin.
All right, but, Hodja,
ten seconds before the accident happened,
the message said "Neither fortune nor misfortune can be avoided."
- I saw it with my own eyes. - Yes, I hear you.
But this "misfortune" is one thing,
and in the Qur'an it's another thing.
In the Qur'an, it signifies those events
that are destined to occur at their appointed time.
So to put it simply, what you're describing,
is either a coincidence, possibly,
or it's done by means of technology.
Perhaps this person, they saw the car through a security camera,
and they saw the crash coming.
So then they decided to send you the messages to mess with you.
Maybe.
Okay, Hodja, what about the message I got
at the same time I was hearing it on TV?
- How can that be a coincidence? - Well...
There's a psychological concept known as "perceptual selectivity."
Say I'm thinking about buying a car.
And I have a certain model in mind, you know.
Now I'm seeing that exact car everywhere I go.
Did they suddenly start selling more cars?
No, that hasn't changed.
But I'm seeing it everywhere, why? Because I'm fixated on it.
My mind keeps seeing it among all the other cars.
That's it.
It's a trick of the mind.
- Okay, Hodja. May Allah bless you. - Yes, you too.
- Thank you for your time. - Don't mention it.
- You can come whenever you want, Gökhan. - Thank you, Hodja. Appreciate it.
So tell me, what have you decided to do?
Well, like you suggested, I'll stop talking to them.
That's for the best.
- It's up to you, Gökhan, of course, but... - No, no, you're right.
I'll end it.
Allah be with you.
And with you. Take care.
Cover them so the equipment doesn't get wet.
Okay, boss.
Let's go, let's go! Come, come, come, come, come, come!
Come. Come on!
- Ah, there he is. - Gökhan!
Fırat! My man.
- Come here. How're you doing? - I'm okay.
Welcome, sir, how are you?
Wh... What are you doing?
- There's no need for that. - Come here. Come here.
May Allah bless you, sir. And may He grant you good fortune.
What's going on here?
When you said what you said... Well, I got this feeling.
We went to see another doctor. It was the wrong diagnosis.
He has Mediterranean fever.
If... If we had continued with the initial treatment, he could have died.
You must be a very blessed man.
You've saved my son's life twice now.
May Allah bless you!
You were right!
I was right.
