01x02 - A Breath Away

Post by bunniefuu »

To the elements it came from

Everything will return,

Our bodies to earth, blood to water,

heat to fire, breath to AIR.

They were well born,

they will be well entomb'd.

Yes?

Okay, I'm coming. Okay.

No, I'm not talking about that.

Yes, exactly.

That's what I'm talking about.

No, no. It's ex. Yes, ex.

Yes, she said so.

I'll call you later.

Why are you still up?

I couldn't sleep.

I'm talking to my friend.

It's a school night. You'll talk tomorrow.

You talk at this hour?

What do you talk so much about?

First a curfew,

and now you're controlling my bedtime?

Hello? Where were we?

Please help. He's following me.

- What the hell?

- Someone's following me.

Don't be scared. Who?

- Tell him you know me.

- I'll handle it. Calm down.

- What gives?

- Don't pry.

What? She's my cousin, get lost!

- What cousin?

- Look, you prick!

Do you keep track of family trees?

ANADOLUKAVAGI

POLICE STATION

She's my aunt's daughter!

What's that to you?

- You got me wrong.

- The only wrong thing is you!

Don't! We were filming

a social experiment, that's all.

- What?

- Just an experiment.

- You got it all?

- Yes.

Good.

Hey!

See? it's not my fault.

- You pulled a knife on him.

- I thought the girl was in trouble.

But the guy told you.

It was an experiment.

- You broke his nose.

- He did nothing wrong, is that it?

That parasite was exploiting

violence against women to gain followers.

- What could I do?

- Sofia.

I didn't ask you to come save me.

Sofia.

You can no longer do as you please.

Everything you do now has an impact

on our Unit, not just on you.

- Don't grunt.

- Okay.

Yes, Serdar? Good morning.

I missed your call.

Okay, we're on our way.

Dumpster. You know the story of dumpsters?

Paris, March 7th, 1884.

Monsieur Poubelle, whose name is

French for garbage and garbage can now,

but not back then. That's irrelevant.

He starts putting bins for garbage

in front of his building.

- In the bins

- Berk!

Shut up.

The girl was found by two people

on December 24th, 2021 at 3.30 a.m.

in Nevzemin Street of Kadıköy.

Do you know why women and children

are placed in lifeboats first

when there's a crisis on a ship?

They're more important?

So that the men can be left alone

to find a solution in peace.

- Morning, Captain.

- Morning.

A couple found her like this at 3:00.

There are no security cameras around.

Wow, good morning Captain.

Good morning, sir. You're early.

I'm not early. You're late.

I was late. Sorry, my bad.

- I informed her late.

- Next time, inform her on time.

Come on. Never mind.

No blunt or sharp force trauma,

or lacerations on the body.

Cause of death?

Early to tell.

- See the petechial hemorrhages?

- So, was she strangled?

Maybe. Or her blood might have run

out of oxygen as a result of an OD.

OD?

We don't know if she was using drugs.

See this stain? Let's find out.

Positive.

Captain.

- Yes?

- No ID, no bag.

Berk couldn't find anything

in the dumpster.

Ms. Feriha ran another test.

Positive again.

A drug like MDMA, she says.

Like ecstasy.

We checked that house

hoping they saw something but it's vacant.

What the hell?

What's your name?

Daisy.

Daisy.

What a nice name, Daisy.

Did you see what happened tonight?

Blue Devil did it.

- Who?

- Blue Devil did it.

Did you know the girl?

Blue Devil.

Daisy.

Is that your bag? The black one.

Or did you take it from the dumpster?

- Okay. Easy.

- Okay.

- Easy. Calm down.

- It's okay. We won't hurt you.

- Easy.

- Is it yours or got it from the dumpster?

Daisy, Blue Devil may hurt you, too.

Don't you want us to catch him?

Come on. Here.

Give it to me.

- Stop, come here!

- Okay, let her go.

- Captain

- Let her go.

We can find her if we want.

Look in that bag.

Nefise Keskin.

I need all info about this girl

on my desk by daybreak.

Yes, ma'am.

Nergis Üzmez. Sofia is her alias.

She broke the law for the first time

at age 15

when she hacked Social Security Agency.

The list goes on.

Her last arrest was in 2015.

- By you, actually.

- Yes.

For a violent crime.

She stabbed her father.

Do you know why Sofia did that, sir?

It's sad, but

Irrelevant.

Due to that chain of events,

she turned into a criminal.

And you think it's better for her

to keep living as a criminal

than as a decent person?

And your solution is to get

this crime machine into the force?

- You're putting a wild card into the mix.

- I vouch for Sofia, Mr. Prosecutor.

I don't want Nergis Üzmez

to work on my cases.

Mr. Prosecutor.

Haluk, please don't start saying

"I told you so," okay?

I won't. Nobody could have pulled off

what you've done in the last weeks.

This unit gained credibility.

- So we're doing something right.

- No doubt.

But there are also some

who are against us.

You've played a huge part in that.

You could've given a milder speech

after the case.

Haluk, somebody

had to say something and I did.

But you didn't stop there.

What should I do?

Not much.

I'll take care of the prosecutor.

You keep an eye on Sofia.

Don't take her to crime scenes.

Make sure she keeps a low profile.

Don't let her make a scene.

That's all.

God! I didn't mean that!

Hasan, get her off my back!

She's giving me a headache!

She doesn't know what she's

- What the hell?

- Calm down, kids!

You don't know the job, don't comment.

You're a newbie, keep quiet.

What's going on here?

Is this a high school?

Boss, this d*uche

is trying to cover up a m*rder.

Whoa! Cover up a m*rder?

You'll say I'm the k*ller next!

- Girl, are you crazy?

- Don't call me "girl"!

- What else can I call you?

- Sofia! Serdar!

Captain, I simply said

we can't call this a m*rder yet.

We can call it a suspicious death.

Maybe it's a case of OD. That's all.

Sure! The girl ODed

and then threw herself

into the dumpster, right?

No, dude. She and her friends

got drunk, she ODed,

they panicked, put her there.

We've seen this before.

That's all I said.

We can't call this a m*rder.

For now,

this is simply a suspicious death.

Serdar is right.

If we don't have enough evidence

to call this a m*rder,

we can't call it a m*rder case.

What? Önem, I can't believe you.

Pardon me?

Do you realize where you are, Sofia?

A girl has lost her life

and you're here arguing?

- Bravo!

- Captain, sorry, but I'm doing my job.

- She pissed me off with her bullshit.

- Watch your mouth, you

- Hey! Just walk away.

- Go on. Come on, go.

You come here.

They are your teammates.

Don't treat them like enemies.

- They're not my friends for sure.

- I said teammates.

Don't roll your eyes.

You told me you believed in this unit

and wanted to work with this team, right?

Right. Then act like it.

Nobody has to agree with you,

but you need to respect everybody.

You're not fighting windmills

on your own anymore.

Get yourself together.

You're not 15 anymore.

Nefise Keskin.

The youngest of three siblings.

What is it, man?

Berk.

I searched every dumpster nearby,

but I couldn't find Nefise's phone.

Okay, man, but just get off that suit.

It smells horrible.

You stink.

They live in Sultanbeyli.

Ew!

EVERYBODY WILL BE RICH SOMEDAY

How could they?

GARAGE

DO NOT PARK

How could they k*ll my daughter?

- It's okay, Mom.

- I'm a wreck. A total wreck.

When did you last see her?

We spoke yesterday.

She said she'd stay with a friend.

They were going to study.

Do you know which friend?

Beats me.

A friend from school, she said.

What was Nefise studying?

Theology. Third year.

Okay. So, do you know if it's possible

that your sister was using drugs?

How could you say that?

My daughter has nothing to do with drugs.

She is a devout Muslim.

- She was.

- I'm sure she was, sir. Calm down.

Mr. Feyzullah, we need to investigate

every little detail.

So, bear with me, okay?

My daughter was going to be an orator!

And you're talking about drugs.

May Allah forgive us.

Bury me with her. Just bury me beside her.

God, why are you testing us again?

Repent!

Don't defy Allah's wish. It's a sin.

What sin did we commit

to deserve this fate?

Okay, Mom. Let's put you to bed.

Here.

Mr. Feyzullah,

your daughter might have been m*rder*d.

So we need to investigate everything.

So, please help us, okay?

It's His will.

Almighty Allah's will.

That's how long Allah wanted her to live.

But Mr. Feyzullah,

isn't m*rder a sin in the eyes of Allah?

Yes, it's the greatest sin.

Almighty Allah says in a verse:

"Whoever kills a believer intentionally,

their reward will be Hell,

where they will stay indefinitely.

Allah will be displeased with them,

condemn them, and will prepare

a tremendous punishment for them."

That's exactly what we're trying to do,

Mr. Feyzullah.

We're trying to punish the person

who did this.

Even if that's the case,

Allah will give his punishment.

There's nothing we can do.

Okay.

Münevver, right? Can I see Nefise's room?

Sure, please come.

Don't be nervous.

Can I look at these?

- Who's this?

- My older brother Mehmet.

Serdar.

Did you know she was interested in music?

- She wrote songs. You knew this notebook?

- No. I hadn't seen it before.

My sister recited

Surah Yaseen beautifully.

Actually, she has a video,

let me show you.

Here it is.

She wasn't a musician or anything.

As I said, she was studying theology.

Yaseen

By the wise Qur'an

Indeed you are from among the messengers

Münevver, in case you hesitated to speak

in front of your father,

I'd like to ask you

some personal questions.

Did you know

she took off her hijab outside?

No. My sister wouldn't do such things.

Okay. Did she tell you

who she stayed with last night?

No, I don't know.

For the last few months,

she would go to her friends' to study.

And she'd stay there.

I'd like to ask you again,

did she use drugs?

Never. My sister would never do that.

But your mother reacted

when she heard about the drugs.

What did she mean by

"Why are you testing us again?"

Where's your brother?

- He's suffering for his sins in a convent.

- What sins?

He went down the wrong path in the past.

He yielded to temptation.

Are you in touch?

- No.

- What's he doing there?

As I said, he's suffering.

He's atoning for his sins in that way.

We got that, sister.

What was his sin?

I can't. No one can come

between Allah and his servants. Never.

It's not my place to question his sins.

He was the one using drugs, right?

I was raw, then I got cooked,

now I'm burned

Peace be upon you.

And peace be upon you.

- Welcome.

- Hi. I'm

- I'm with the police.

- I hope nothing's wrong.

Mehmet Keskin.

- Follow me, I'll take you to him.

- I'd appreciate it.

If "Ana'l-Ḥaqq" means "I am the Truth",

what did Al-Hallaj mean

by saying "Ana'l-Ḥaqq"?

In my humble opinion,

this is what it means:

you know, the name Allah

is a reflection

of the Creator's attributes,

who said "I wished to be known."

Thanks.

Peace be upon you.

And peace be upon you.

Brother, I'm with the police.

Put that thing down and let's talk.

I'm sorry for your loss.

May Allah forgive her sins.

Where were you last night?

Thank Allah,

I was in the same place I've been

for the past four years.

- Meaning?

- Here.

Here? For four years?

Didn't you go out even once

during the past four years?

Didn't you want to see what's out there?

- Thank Allah, I didn't.

- Good.

You'll go out for her funeral.

If Allah wills it.

Your sister wanted to see you.

She came by a few times,

but you refused to see her.

Why?

Last night, I said to myself,

"Keep saying 'La ilaha illallah'

till daybreak."

Then I thought of my sins.

I felt shame.

I couldn't pray,

no matter how hard I tried.

What I mean is that it's my job

to wait in this holy place.

No one should have to wait for me.

How come you didn't see your sister?

Were you ashamed of her as well?

They say there are three motives

for asking a question.

One.

To learn. So that the person asking

is informed.

Two. So that the others learn.

This is called a guidance question.

Three.

To make one feel ashamed.

Whoever tries to shame someone else

shames himself.

Because all it takes to feel shame

is to look inside oneself.

"I was raw,

then I got cooked,

now I'm burned."

Praise be to Allah.

Okay, I got it. I'll hold.

Hasan, try searching for "Nefes."

That's her Instagram name.

- Nefes?

- Nefise's username on Instagram.

Hold on.

Can you search her as "Nefes Keskin"?

Okay, thanks.

No luck?

I called the theology schools

of four colleges.

Nefise Keskin

is not registered in any of them.

- Because she doesn't study theology.

- What? Her older sister said she does.

Don't mind what the sister said.

- Nefise, aka Nefes, is in a conservatory.

- No way.

She's leading a double life.

On the one hand there is Nefise,

a conservative theology student

who lives with her family,

and on the other, there is Nefes,

a young girl who aspires to be a singer

and attends a conservatory.

I wonder which one the k*ller

had a problem with, Nefes or Nefise?

We'll find out, Mr. Hasan.

We'll find out.

STATE CONSERVATORY

- Wow, look how awesome this school is.

- It really is.

Kids are lucky to be study here.

Right? Lively.

Sometimes you question your decisions.

Perhaps I shouldn't have been a cop.

Why? Didn't you always want to be a cop?

Your father was so proud.

- Proud?

- Yes.

That's my dad. Complete bullshit.

Like everyone else,

he tells tales to look good.

Weird, right? A man who never loved anyone

says he's proud of his son.

We all make mistakes, Serdar.

We hurt the ones we love the most.

- Is that right?

- Yes.

Well, that's not what I do.

Good.

- Let's get back to business.

- Sure.

You talk to the teachers.

I'll go see the students.

She was full of life, so joyful.

She signed her first album deal

before even graduating.

What kind of monster

Okay.

Did she tell you about her family?

She told me a little.

Do you think her family knew about

the conservatory,

or that she took off her hijab

or that she sang?

I'm not sure.

- Did she date anyone?

- No.

Music was all Nefes cared about.

- Was she planning to stay with you?

- Yes.

Were you two close?

- But then she decided not to stay.

- Why?

We wanted to hang out after the bar.

But she was tired and wanted to go home.

Nefes

Did she use drugs?

Or do any one of you?

I never saw anything.

- But everyone uses these days, right?

- No.

I'd have to arrest all of you then.

- Right?

- Sure.

Okay, let's say

Nefes was using drugs.

Do you know anyone she had issues with,

who got her drugs

or who did drugs with her?

No. I don't think so.

It wouldn't go that far.

I see.

Do you any videos from last night?

Did you film anything?

Is there anyone at school

Nefes had issues with?

- Anything comes to mind?

- There is Gülgün, actually.

Who's Gülgün?

Sevda Güneş's daughter. You'd know her.

She was a star in the nineties.

Yeah, I remember.

Gülgün was trying to be a singer.

That's why she was jealous of Nefes.

She caused a scene when she found out

Nefes got an album deal.

- Was she with you last night?

- Yes, but she left early.

She told us she was going home.

Okay.

Do you think Gülgün did it?

You left the bar early last night.

Yes, I had to practice.

I worked late at home.

Do you have someone who can confirm this?

No, my mom's on tour. I was alone at home.

Tour?

Wait, are you

Yes, Sevda Güneş is my mother.

How nice.

I'm a fan.

How lucky you are.

I'm sure she's proud of you.

You seem to be following her footsteps.

That's great.

Do you dream of releasing an album?

School takes up too much time.

I think it's early for that.

Sure, you're right.

But as far as I know,

Nefes didn't just make an album,

or rather an album deal,

- but she also sang at a bar, right?

- Yes.

Nefes was a bit much energetic.

A bit much?

Can you elaborate on that?

I mean she was on something.

- Like what?

- I'm not talking about vitamins.

I got that.

- Are you implying she was doing drugs?

- Yes.

Did you witness it?

No, but I heard things.

- Where?

- Here and there.

Here and there.

Here and there.

So, Gülgün.

Why did you argue with Nefes?

That's normal stuff.

Conservatory is competitive.

Don't fall

for "best friends forever" acts.

If given the opportunity,

they will go to any length to get ahead.

Are you one of those people?

Do you have lines you wouldn't cross?

I do. But Nefes didn't.

She was well-connected.

That got her the job and the album deal.

Can you name this connection?

Your hand is kind of hovering.

Push it harder.

See you, honey. Take care, bye.

Take care. See you.

See you.

Yes.

One more time Yes.

Mr. Emrah.

Yes?

I heard it from the students.

I was shocked. We're all upset.

Doesn't seem like it.

The place was buzzing with music

when we got there.

You're right, but life goes on.

We need to give the students

the education they need.

Life doesn't go on

for one of your students, Mr. Emrah.

Nefes was singing in a bar in Kadıköy

and we found her body near that bar.

- What's your connection with that bar?

- The owner is a close friend of mine.

I suggested Nefes to get on the stage.

- Did you also get the album deal done?

- No, but I moved it along.

If you had seen Nefes,

I mean, heard her sing

You'd say a new star was on the rise.

Were you at the bar last night, Mr. Emrah?

Yes, the kids and I went there

to show our support for Nefes.

Do you usually go to bars

with your students?

When there is a special occasion.

To be there for them when they succeed.

- Were there any other teachers?

- No.

Teachers are mostly married with kids.

They have a lot to do at home.

- There was no one else.

- But you're single.

The students are single.

What do you guys do?

You hang out as bachelors?

No. I mean

When did you leave the bar?

Around 10:00 or 10:30.

Did you notice anything strange outside?

- Everything was totally normal.

- Were you?

- Yes.

- You were?

- Yes.

- What did you do?

- Did you hang out anywhere else?

- I went home.

- I went home right away.

- Okay. Please tell me your address.

We'll knock your door

if we need further info.

Sure, I can give you my address.

Önem, I accessed information

about the complex he lives in.

Emrah arrived at home around 5 a.m.

Got it, Sofia. Keep looking.

I want every bit of information

about Emrah Söylemez.

Tell Mr. Hasan not to skip

getting the permits this time.

Also, contact the GSM operator.

Okay.

What's wrong, jerk?

You were showing off yesterday!

Get the f*ck up!

Drop that!

- Drop that!

- Don't move!

Hey!

Drop it!

Drop that!

Don't move!

Okay.

Okay.

Here.

Go to a hospital just in case.

- Get well.

- Thanks.

Thank you very much indeed.

- You saved my life.

- Don't mention it. It's our job.

- The reason we're here is

- I know, sir. You're here for Nefes.

- Emrah called to tell me.

- Was he here last night?

Yes, he came to see Nefes play

with students.

And then?

You don't suspect Emrah, do you?

Let us decide who we suspect or not.

Emrah is not someone

who could hurt anybody.

He liked Nefes, his best student.

Maybe he liked her too much?

Obsessed with her?

Emrah, sir?

Emrah plays for the other team.

He wears those jerseys and all.

- You sure?

- We go way back. No way he's not.

Okay, what were those men doing here?

One of them was obsessed with Nefes.

I told him to stay away, but he didn't.

Last night he was here

and I had him kicked out by security.

He came back

with two of his men to get even.

- Which one?

- He ran away. Tekin.

- Last name?

- I don't know.

But he's a bus driver.

- You know him?

- Unfortunately, yes.

Why unfortunately?

Last month, when Nefes got on his bus

after work, it was empty.

He came on to her,

but let her go when she started yelling.

- There was no report.

- She didn't report it.

She was afraid her family would find out.

I started sending her home by cab

so she would be safe.

But that b*stard found out she worked here

and started showing up.

- What happened last night?

- He was beaten up and got the f*ck out.

- Right away?

- Well, he left the bar.

But I'm not sure if he waited for her

on the street.

Did Nefes use drugs?

Guys like you can tell.

Well

I had some doubts, to be honest.

I gave her a few warnings.

Because she had a weird look in her eyes,

like she was out of it.

I said, "Don't do it, kid."

She said she was studying all night,

but I knew something was off.

Did she use or not?

I don't want to blame a dead girl.

I'm not sure, I was just suspicious.

I quit my corporate job to open this bar.

I put everything into it.

I don't want my reputation ruined.

I run a respectable business.

So I warned her a couple of times.

Show us the security footage.

Our cameras don't work.

- What do you mean?

- These are just for show.

That's the case for every bar and club

on this street. It's just for precaution.

- I got them at a discount store.

- Well done.

God

- Hope you'll feel better soon.

- Thanks.

We need to investigate

that Tekin guy, Serdar.

I will, Captain.

I'd follow him but I feared for you.

That's why I missed him.

Okay. No worries.

ÇAPA ANATOLIAN

TEACHER TRAINING HIGH SCHOOL

Your mom's looking at us.

See you.

- Mom, what's up? Are you okay?

- Yes, I'm fine.

Who are they?

Your friends?

They don't look like students.

Are you profiling, Mom?

I have homework. Come on.

- Sorry I'm a bit late.

- No problem.

I don't know, Feriha.

Really. Every time I think

things are on track

and we're working as a team,

something goes wrong and we fall apart.

They're all like children.

Unbelievable. Especially Sofia

You have to see her.

Throwing tantrums like a toddler.

Worse than Sude.

- How is Sude?

- That's another issue.

I don't know. I don't get it.

- Something's up?

- Yes.

- What?

- You're a doctor. You'd know.

Depression. Lack of sleep and appetite.

Sudden outbursts, always ready to fight.

Aren't these signs of drug use?

Yes, these are among the signs.

- But

- Yes?

The first thing to watch out for

is unnecessary paranoia, Önem.

Thank you so much. Is that sarcasm?

Önem, how about you talk to Sude?

That's also an option.

How? She's a shut-down 16-year-old girl.

She doesn't talk.

- Don't you think I'm trying?

- Look, Önem.

You're a great cop and a wonderful mom.

But you try to control

everyone and everything.

- What can I do?

- You're a total control freak sometimes.

- Are you aware of that?

- Easy!

Why are you laughing?

Enjoying this? Nutjob.

No. I laughed because my patients

don't reach much.

- I'm fragile.

- I know.

- I fought with someone today.

- You're sweet.

- Thanks.

- That's all.

So

Well

Önem, honey.

- I was wrong.

- About?

I ran her blood and stomach contents.

She didn't use drugs.

No way.

Maybe she used before, like a month ago?

Maybe, but MDMA pills

pass through the system quickly.

- Really? I thought it took longer.

- No.

So, it's not a good idea

to make any assumptions.

But she tested positive on site.

Yes, because she has drug traces

on her face

and I think it's due to contact.

Cause of death is asphyxia.

She ran out of oxygen.

They strangled her with a drug bag.

Yes, Önem.

This is a m*rder case now.

- Damn.

- Unfortunately.

What's this?

I found Emrah's location on that night

from his phone operator.

- Where was he?

- Israfil was right.

He was at a bar called One Way

in Taksim from 11 p.m. till 4 a.m.

What?

One Way, Hasan. One Way.

Not like the bars you know.

How would you know what I know about?

Whatever you say.

That's why he lied about going home.

He didn't want to expose himself.

How could he? It would cost his career.

Okay, thank you.

By the way, Serdar found the identity

of the driver who was harassing Nefes.

Who is he?

This is our man. Tekin Maçkan.

He did time

for drug possession and distribution.

Serdar went to find him,

but he's disappeared.

Where is Serdar?

- Stay away!

- Easy.

I swear to God, I'll burn myself!

- Easy!

- I didn't do anything!

Stay away! I'll burn myself!

I swear to God, I'll burn myself!

Easy. Take it easy.

I'll burn myself!

Tekin Maçkan threatens to burn himself

in the middle of the

Here's the deal,

you and Serdar investigate

where this Tekin Maçkan guy can be, okay?

- No need.

- Why?

Look at the TV.

SUICIDE ATTEMPT IN ISTANBUL

Drop it, we'll talk.

No! No talking!

Calm down. Come here.

I didn't deserve this!

- What's going on here?

- Wait a minute.

- Cameras are here?

- Is that Serdar?

That's Serdar for sure.

Betül!

I love you so much, Betül!

Look at him.

- Calm down.

- Burn it, man! What happened to loyalty?

Is he insane?

She left! She took my child and left!

All b*tches are the same!

We'll burn ourselves!

Stay the f*ck away!

Stay away!

Betül

Did you love your woman, too?

I loved her so much.

So, so much.

- You were dumped, too?

- I didn't dump her.

She's gone She's gone forever

and I couldn't do anything.

Forever?

- Forever.

- Is she dead?

She's dead.

Sorry for your loss.

- Did you love her so much?

- So much.

I loved her so much that

it's pointless to keep on living.

I was hitting her.

I was hitting her too much.

Then one day, I woke up and

She was gone. Did you hit her?

How could I hurt her?

I loved her so much.

- You nuts? Toss the cigarette.

- f*ck you!

Light it up.

Get the hell up.

- What the hell? What's going on?

- Get up. Take him.

Take him!

Okay, don't make a big deal out of it.

You saw me on TV? Did I look handsome?

Serdar. What the hell are you doing?

What were you thinking?

I don't want that to happen again.

Just one wrong move will put us in a place

we don't want to be

Bravo! You're doing great!

Great! Congrats.

I want to congratulate you.

Bravo, bravo!

You, son of the Deputy Chief himself,

son of an officer,

is showing off on cameras,

pouring gas on him

while holding a lighter in one hand.

What a show-off!

When will you grow up to be a man?

Be a man according to whom or what?

Be a man by whose standards?

If it's yours, I prefer not to be a man.

- Excuse me.

- Go on.

You f*cked up and made it worse as always.

Chief.

I'll talk to my team if necessary

and you can rest assured that I will.

If you'll excuse me,

I have to interrogate a suspect.

Go on.

Great.

- Why the hell are you crying?

- The woman I loved died.

Prick! You tried to r*pe her in the bus.

You call that love?

Who said that? It's a lie!

Mr. Hasan!

- You okay?

- Going for a smoke.

I went to the bar,

but I was serious about her.

You went to show how serious you were?

Yes, ma'am. I even bought a ring.

We were going to talk.

Then that jerk started rambling on.

Then what happened?

I left to avoid a fight.

I didn't do anything.

And you attacked him with your pals.

Yes. I heard Nefes was dead

when I went home.

The owner kicked you out.

- Didn't you wait for Nefes outside?

- No.

- To talk?

- I didn't.

You didn't.

Did you give up on her so quickly?

Of course not, ma'am.

I loved her to death.

I mean I wouldn't give up till I died.

We had our whole lives ahead of us.

I would have found a way

and waited for her till she said yes.

- So you didn't k*ll her?

- How can you k*ll someone you love?

- Her death shattered me.

- Is that why you wanted to burn yourself?

I can't go on living, ma'am.

How can I live without Nefes?

Also, I know who did it.

- I'll take care of him after.

- Who are you to take care of someone?

You will tell us.

- Who?

- Her junkie brother, that's who.

He pretends to be pious now.

He didn't approve her singing.

Don't fall for his religious acts.

He was the top dealer in the neighborhood.

That junkie got high on his own stash

and k*lled his best friend.

Captain.

I apologize.

No problem, Mr. Hasan.

He k*lled his friend Yusuf Eren.

Because he was under the influence,

he only served five years in prison.

Was he involved in any crime after?

I don't know,

but he wasn't caught even if he did.

I checked the cameras near the convent.

Some of the cameras show the main gate,

but he might have exited through another.

Are you okay?

What are you doing?

- Police.

- I didn't ask who you were.

I asked what you were doing.

You have a warrant?

Are you in charge, sir?

Of course not, Allah is in charge.

I'm just responsible for these souls.

Please leave if you don't have a warrant.

What do you expect to find

in such a tiny place?

Your follower's connection to m*rder.

You're slandering a person

who has made atonement for his sins.

What can you do, sir?

We're all sinners.

I have a question.

Isn't using a cellphone forbidden here?

Yes, the souls in here want

limited contact with the outside world.

Mehmet didn't want to cut off his contact

with the outside world that much.

Can you turn it on?

Turn it on.

No password. You can turn it on.

Mehmet.

Maybe you couldn't let this slide.

You went to talk to Nefise.

Maybe you argued.

She told you things you didn't like.

And you lost control.

You did things you didn't intend to do.

Is that possible?

I didn't k*ll Nefes.

You call her Nefes, then. Not Nefise.

This video didn't make you angry at all?

No.

I wasn't angry.

You weren't angry.

Why did you hide your phone?

Because

sometimes when I got tired

and worried I'd go back to my old ways

I called Nefes.

It felt good.

You felt good.

Old ways, huh?

Here are the old ways.

Did this feel good, too?

Do you recognize it?

Found in the pocket of a 15-year-old boy

in the corner of your convent's street.

Did you put it there?

- Put that away.

- Don't tell me what to do.

- Answer me, 15-year-old

- Put that away.

- He didn't talk, but

- Put that away.

Hey! Sit down! I'll bash your brains in!

Nefise knew, didn't she?

Tell me. She knew, right?

She came to you.

She knew you were a dealer.

You weren't angry she was singing,

but she was angry you were dealing.

She told you the truth.

That you were a dealer and a parasite!

And you strangled her like your friend!

Right? You strangled your sister!

Answer me! Did you sell this?

Was it because of this sh*t?

Why did you stop?

- Captain

- Don't mind her.

- We're not doing it for ourselves.

- But actually, the procedure

What's going on here?

What are you doing?

- Ecstasy.

- Pardon me?

What the hell?

Benzodioxide

I found a recipe on the dark web

that I think has the same chemicals

as the one on her face.

This is different than the ones

on the market, more custom.

- We wanted to check

- Sofia, what are you doing?

You talk about permits and rules.

These are all ridiculous protocols.

- We don't have time.

- And that's your call?

- Someone must have taken the liberty.

- What? And that someone is you? Get out!

- Önem, look

- Sofia!

Go away.

We'll talk later.

What the hell?

Is this a zoo?

Put that out.

Hold on a minute!

Your mom's here.

- What did you do?

- Nothing.

- What did you put in her pocket?

- Mom, don't!

- What did you put in it?

- Nothing, ma'am, I swear!

Hard drugs or pills?

- Tell me!

- Mom, what are you talking about?

Police!

I didn't put anything, I swear!

Sude, I saw it. He put something there.

Ouch!

What's this? Tell me what's in it!

Songs of our band.

FOR YOU

I wanted to surprise Sude.

Mom!

Everyone dismissed!

Are you okay?

Sude.

Do you realize what you did today?

Okay, I thought

he put something in your pocket.

- You thought he put drugs.

- Yes.

Suppose he did.

What did you think would happen?

I'd thought it was a candy and eat it?

Or I'd get curious and taste it?

Sude, it's for your sake

I was worried about you.

Mom.

Whenever you get mad at me,

you tell me to grow up.

But you never stop

treating me like a child.

Not just me.

You're doing that to everyone.

You say you respect everyone,

but you don't even listen.

You walk right over everyone.

I'll apologize to your friends tomorrow.

Mom.

I think my punishment ends here.

Don't come to school for a while, okay?

- Good morning.

- Captain, good morning.

Ms. Münevver wants to talk to you.

Sure. Good morning Münevver. Come in.

Good morning.

I heard you arrested Mehmet.

Yes, he needs to be detained for a while.

He couldn't have done something to her.

Did you know your sister

was singing in a bar?

She sent Mehmet this video. Check it out.

Did you know about this?

Münevver.

We're worried that Mehmet got furious

and did something wrong.

Mehmet loved Nefes the most.

You called her Nefes twice now.

You know about Nefes, right?

How long have you known?

Tell me.

About one and a half months ago

a girl came to our house.

She said she was

Nefise's friend from school.

- I was surprised.

- Why?

She didn't look like a theology student.

No hijab, earrings and all

She said Nefise was fooling us.

That she studied music, not theology.

She said she was singing in bars.

I confronted Nefes.

I spilled my guts.

But she was adamant.

If I told my father,

he'd cause a big scene.

I decided to go and talk to Mehmet.

I told him everything.

I said she'd end up in Hell.

Didn't you worry that he would hurt Nefes?

No. As I said, he loved Nefes the most.

I thought Mehmet could convince her.

He talked to me instead.

What did he say?

"Everyone is in charge of their own path.

Only Allah knows who will end up where.

Before judging,

go and see what she's doing."

Did you go?

She sounded like an angel, ma'am.

I accepted it right away.

Mehmet was right.

She was walking down her own path.

Please ma'am, don't tell my parents.

They wouldn't understand.

I was still processing it myself.

And what does it matter now

that my sister is dead and buried?

Okay.

Okay.

That girl who came to your door,

Nefes's friend?

Do you know her?

Her name?

Özge?

Can we talk?

Why did you do it?

Wasn't Nefes your best friend, Özge?

I sacrificed everything

to get into this school.

My parents spent a lot of money for years.

Singing lessons, piano, solfeggio.

My dad is a public servant.

I'm their only hope.

Bravo.

At least you're lucky.

Your family supports you.

Despite her family,

Nefes struggled with them all alone.

She led a double life.

You know this very well.

But Nefes had an excellent natural talent.

Even though

she didn't have a musical background.

It didn't take long for Mr. Emrah

to discover her.

He found her a job,

introduced her to producers.

She signed an album deal

before graduation.

And you decided to tell on her

out of jealousy, is that it?

- I did what I had to do.

- What the hell does it mean?

You took care of it yourself

when her family didn't, right?

You knew there were no cameras outside.

Nobody suspects you since she knows you.

- I didn't k*ll anyone.

- Why am I having trouble believing you?

- Did you know her brother k*lled someone?

- Yes.

Do you know who?

- Yusuf Eren.

- Yes. Zahide Eren's son.

Nefes told me.

The woman called herself "Daisy."

Her son bought her daisies

when he was alive.

Nefes was helping her

to overcome her guilt.

We brought her food a few times.

She didn't even know who Nefes was.

And you told her.

There, I saw her.

Daisy?

Stop, ma'am. Take it easy.

We won't hurt you. Take it easy. Let go!

Take it easy. Stop.

- Okay.

- Let me go!

Police. Easy. I'm a cop.

- Go!

- Okay, ma'am. It's okay.

Stop it! Stop!

Stop! Don't move!

Don't!

- Calm down.

- How can I? I'm rummaging sh*t.

Serdar.

Like A Breath

It would take IT a month to turn it on.

Can you do it?

I'll try my best, Captain.

Blue Devil.

Blue Devil took Nefes away.

Blue Devil did it.

Blue Devil did it.

Blue Devil did it.

Blue.

This woman had a motive

to k*ll Nefise Keskin.

She was carrying 50 plastic bags.

She could have strangled her with it.

She also had her phone.

You still haven't turned her over to us.

- Yes.

- Why?

Because we couldn't turn on the phone.

And the bags and evidence

from Daisy's cart

As the person in charge, I'm telling you

the evidence is enough

to conclude the case.

Send Zahide Eren to prosecution

in two hours.

Captain.

Prosecutor may be right.

We need three basic things

to catch the k*ller.

One, motive. Two, opportunity.

Three, m*rder weapon.

- Yes.

- Zahide Eren, aka Daisy has motive.

Revenge for her son.

She had opportunity.

And she had the victim's phone.

The only thing we need

is the m*rder weapon.

She had many plastic bags in her cart.

Couldn't she have k*lled her with one?

Berk?

- You checked the bags?

- Clearly taken from the bin.

Covered with residues.

It'd take time to analyze them.

It would take time.

Then what are you doing?

- Coffee break.

- Coffee break? Great.

What's he doing?

- One Mississippi, two Mississippi.

- Hasan?

Three Mississippi

- Hasan!

- God!

Hasan!

- Seven Mississippi, eight Mississippi

- Hasan!

What the hell?

A cop of 33 years caught you off guard,

but you broke free in 8 seconds.

But I'm not a 20-year-old girl.

She can't be as strong as me.

- Maybe she couldn't handle it.

- Come here.

Do you see her hands?

- What about them?

- She has arthritis.

Rheumatoid arthritis.

Inflammatory rheumatism. Hasan's right.

Strangling takes more than a minute,

which is impossible with these hands.

No offense, pal.

I'm going for a smoke.

Turn on that phone. Now.

Hello?

- I heard it got tense with the prosecutor.

- Well, he was tense as usual.

Nothing to do with me.

- Correct.

- He's always tense.

- What is it?

- She didn't activate face recognition.

Try fingerprints.

Okay. Try the other hand.

I don't know why it doesn't work.

It has to.

I'm going crazy.

Maybe she didn't use her fingerprints.

- Why?

- I don't use them.

- Why?

- I don't, man.

You're wasting your time.

That phone was released a month ago.

Fingerprint detection is not optical,

it's biometric.

It doesn't have optical scan?

It scans the body's electricity

as well as the fingerprint pattern.

So, in order to turn it on,

Nefes has to be alive right now.

Correct?

- Correct.

- Can you get it done?

It'll take one or two days,

but there is an easier way.

What? Will you resurrect her?

Serdar.

Did you read Frankenstein?

Feriha. Are you nervous?

I may be the first doctor

to use these in a morgue.

Are you ready?

Clear.

Three, two, one.

- Didn't work.

- Okay, I'll raise it.

Ready?

Three, two, one.

- Yes, it's on!

- Wow! Awesome.

I'll get in now.

Photo gallery.

She filmed a video before she died.

Brother, how are you? I hope you're well.

I had another show today.

I wish you'd seen it.

The place was packed. My best friends,

my teacher, everyone watched me on stage.

I know you don't want to go out.

I hope you'll come someday.

Let's say hello to Israfil if he's here.

What are they doing?

Nefes? Stop it! What are you doing?

How do you pronounce this?

- What does it mean? Does it have a story?

- We had a band in college.

- It was called Blue Devil.

- "Blue Devil."

Captain.

Pills are sold on the street

outside this guy's bar,

and they're happened to be called

"Blue Devil."

Watch that, Israfil.

What are they doing?

Nefes? Stop it! What are you doing?

Nefes filmed this for her brother,

but she couldn't send it.

Drink this. You'll need it.

I'm not a dealer.

f*ck you!

You know, I believe you, Israfil.

I really do.

Do you know what Israfil was doing

before the bar stuff?

His title in corporate?

Beats me. IT or something?

No. Chemical engineer.

Right, Israfil?

Chemical engineer.

What a coincidence.

The second one. What a coincidence.

Our white collar was a chemical engineer.

That's why I believe you, Israfil.

I really do, because you

Of course you're not the dealer

of that pill, Blue Devil.

- You're the manufacturer himself!

- No!

No.

Captain, I'm curious.

This is a serious question.

Does a person name the pill he produces

after his own tattoo?

If he does, what can we call him?

Do we call him bold, narcissistic

- or just plain old stupid?

- Look

Search my house, my car or my bar

if you want. Okay?

I didn't do it.

- Plain old stupid.

- No, he's smart.

So smart that he manipulates us.

You idiot

What did you think we've been doing

for the past three hours you've been here?

What have we been doing in the meantime?

But I admire you. Nice.

Nice work.

You disguised the bar very well.

Well done, good work.

Bravo.

But we have much smarter friends than you.

Our colleagues found your stash.

Don't mention it, Captain. It's my job.

Those smart friends of mine

also looked through your computer.

They found a recipe

for an MDMA-like stimulant

and several correspondences with someone.

Normally it'd take us weeks to solve it,

but one of my friends,

who is much more smarter than you,

found the formula of the stimulant online

and tried it.

What's interesting is, Israfil,

the trace on Nefes's nose

was a match for that formula.

Did you take me in for this?

Why would I k*ll Nefes?

I liked Nefes very much.

Sorry, Captain. Cut the crap.

Idiot.

Did we make you watch the video

for nothing?

So what?

What does it have to do with m*rder?

- Just theories, assumptions.

- You think you're smart?

Daisy.

Nefes always helped you.

Do you want to help her, too?

Look at these.

Blue Devil.

You're wrong, Israfil.

I have a witness who saw you put Nefes

in that dumpster after strangling her.

It's a lie! I didn't do that!

Okay, Israfil. What do you say

about the traces found on the plastic bag

in your stash?

Did you know biological samples

and makeup residue was found?

Just think about it,

whose DNA will match the DNA there?

Huh, Israfil?

Come on!

Speak.

Look at me, man.

Look at me, man.

Now, listen.

We have you cornered.

Let me tell you,

you have no way out of this.

Let us try to help you.

You're clearly a naive man.

You don't have the ba*ls

to get involved in this.

You were forced to do it.

Tell us why you did it,

tell us how you did it

and what happened afterwards.

If there is anything we can do,

we will help you.

Our Captain is understanding. Right?

We'll see. Speak.

I had so many big dreams!

I had big dreams when I opened that bar.

I put all of my money into that bar.

In just a few months,

I was facing bankruptcy!

No one gave me loans or anything.

And the ones I could find

are so dangerous

They're threatening me.

I tried to tell her.

She didn't listen.

I told Nefes,

"Please, don't do that to me."

You told her and she didn't listen.

You mean you argued.

I begged her.

I told her, "Nefes. I'll quit

when I pay off my debts."

She ran away with the bag.

She was going to give it to the police.

I followed her.

- To take the bag.

- Let me go!

She fought so hard

Then the pills spilled all over.

That's when I lost control.

I put the bag over her head.

Captain. He says the pills were spilled,

but we couldn't find them.

I took them all to avoid being traced.

I put it in the bag.

I threw the rest in a manhole.

I looked for her phone.

I must have thrown it somewhere.

I couldn't find it.

Scared of being seen, I fled.

But someone saw you.

Blue Devil.

Right, Israfil?

I tried to tell Nefes.

She didn't listen.

Because you were selling drugs

to her friends from conservatory, Israfil!

And you chose to fix this

by k*lling that beautiful girl.

- Right, Israfil?

- I had no choice. She'd cause trouble.

She'd wreck my file, you see?

I only wanted the bag!

She threatened to tell the police.

I was desperate.

The people I worked with are so dangerous

that they wouldn't let me live a second.

What shall I do with you, scumbag?

What shall I do with you?

Look

I'm not alone in the drug business.

If we collaborate, I can help you

take down a very large network.

Please.

I don't want to go to jail.

It was an outburst of rage.

I'm truly sorry. Please help me.

- Please.

- Who will help Nefes?

Who will help Nefes?

- I'm sorry.

- Shut up!

Come here.

Come on, Mehmet.

Go on.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Old boy.

No hard feelings

about the bag stuff, right?

There is.

But I'm terrified to say anything

in case you'll do worse.

Önem.

Come in, honey.

- I'm not very good at this, but

- Sofia.

I apologize.

What? I was going to apologize.

I asked you to act

like someone you're not.

I'm aware. So, I apologize.

- So you weren't pissed about the ecstasy.

- Of course I was pissed about it.

Please tell me in advance

before doing anything like it.

Okay.

- Önem

- Honey?

I mean, Captain.

Thank you.

I love you.

Congratulations.

Deputy Chief.

Are you here to lecture me about Sofia?

I'm here to help you.

- This is

- Gökhan's.

- Thanks.

- You're welcome.

By the way, do me a favor.

Please don't yell at my team

in my presence

and undermine my authority again.

Even if he's your son,

it's my duty to run the unit.

Let me do it, okay? Or tell me.

Aye aye, Captain.

ARCHIVES

SPECIAL CRIMES UNI

Okay then

You know what happiest day

of my childhood was?

- The belly dancer on New Year's special?

- Nope.

April, 1978. My father

was going out of town for a month.

A whole month without beatings.

Then I grew up, became a cop, got married.

I've seen the filthiest side of the world.

And one day,

when I held my daughter in my arms,

I promised myself

that even if I dealt

with scum every single day,

she would never see or experience

the things I've been through.

It was a mistake.

Yes, we should protect our children

from this world,

but we should prepare them for it, too.

What's up, old man?

- Why are you telling me this?

- What I mean is

Every father has a way of keeping their

kids safe, whether it's right or wrong.

I mean, maybe you father means well.

Your turn.

You threw files on my desk twice.

I wanted to offer

the same courtesy to you, sir.

Congratulations, you've found the k*ller.

Thanks. It's our duty.

IT Expert

Nergis Üzmez

I told you I didn't want Nergis Üzmez

on my cases.

You did.

I took the liberty of ignoring your wish.

And not just for this case.

Sofia will work with us.

And you can't do anything about it.

Why is that?

Why is that?

Because of the other file I brought.

Under the file of Nefise Keskin.

Please take a look at it.

What's in it? Are you blackmailing me?

- A public prosecutor?

- Not at all.

No, sir. Please just open it and look.

The list you see,

or rather, you cannot see on that page,

is the list of individuals

you've successfully convicted

or proven guilty before our unit.

Unfortunately, you've botched every case

you've worked on since you got this job,

and now you're at the end of your career.

So, you need the Special Crimes Unit.

Sofia is a part of that unit,

whether you like it or not.

It doesn't matter if you hate it,

she'll continue working with us.

You need us, sir.

I hope I was clear. With all due respect.

This will have consequences.

Of course.

Bring it on, sir.

You're welcome, sir.
