Ömer!
Take the children to their schools.
At your behest, Pasha.
Come on, children.
Come on.
Mahmud Pasha, what happened?
Mahmud Pasha?
Come on, Mahmud Pasha. What happened?
The woman attacked me like a panther.
I couldn't even use my weapon.
She struck me with subsequent blows.
I passed out. -How are you now?
I'm back now.
What about the children, Pasha?
Were we able to save the children?
İnşallah, they will arrive at their schools.
Thank Allah. Thank Allah.
It hurts, Pasha.
Ömer!
Your mother's murderer has come, son.
Come on out.
What kind of person are you?
You dishonourable, despicable scoundrel.
Ömer.
Hiram will bury you anyway.
Your mother misses you, son.
She is waiting for you.
My mother is waiting for you too...
...to take her revenge in the hereafter.
You are still alive.
Run away, cur.
The roads you resort to will lead to death.
I'm tired.
-We are Armenian. -I know.
Are you Muslim, brother?
Thank Allah.
Soldier, if someone hurts us, can you shoot them with these guns?
Do not worry. Nobody can hurt you.
My grandparents always say it.
What do they say?
My grandfather used to say "Muslims are merciful men.
But they do not allow gambling.
They do not allow alcohol.
They do not allow debauchery.
That makes them cruel."
What does your grandmother say?
She says "Allah damn you." to my grandfather.
Turns out explosions are quite fun.
He said, "Watch them through the window."
My Sovereign.
I left Mahmud Pasha in the coach...
...and went in for the negotiation.
I found the children alone...
...when I went in.
The scoundrels that kidnapped the poor children were gone.
We asked.
But the matter remains a mystery.
They left the children without bargaining and resisting.
We couldn't understand it.
They just left the children and disappeared...
...without expressing their intentions, and obtaining any result?
This infidel will certainly be punished.
The rest is not so pleasant either, my Sovereign.
If you want, let Mahmud Pasha recount.
-Please. -My Sovereign.
This is how the incident occurred.
When the Grand Vizier went to the infidels...
...that kidnapped the children...
...I stayed in the coach.
This infidel named Sarah Hedaya was sitting in front of me in the coach.
She looked at me badly.
I turned my head away.
But of course, my conscience said...
...take your gun out.
...and shoot shoot this devil.
May the world be free of trouble.
But I couldn't.
Get to the point, Pasha.
I will, my Sovereign.
While my head was turned that way...
...I looked at this woman...
...named Sarah Hedaya from the corner of my eye.
And that woman attacked me like a panther.
Then to my skull right here...
No need.
She struck a blow right here.
Then another blow. Then another blow.
Another blow and I fainted.
So you couldn't tackle a woman?
But my Sovereign...
...as you know...
...even the greatest Pasha...
...may not be able to imagine...
...a blow inflicted by a woman.
It is not possible.
Apart from the attrition she inflicted on you...
...we have no business with Sarah Hedaya.
We learnt what we need.
My Sovereign.
What did we learn from this devil called Sarah Hedaya?
If you had not preferred to faint, Pasha...
...you would have found out.
May Allah give you a long life.
Dear.
Where am I?
Calm down, dear.
You were lying unconscious here.
Are you all right?
I came to take my brother's corpse.
But they took it.
What did they take?
The corpse?
Yes.
The corpse.
Are you all right, dear?
Who should do what?
Those who want war took my brother as their flag.
I must find him.
Tell me, son.
MY Sovereign, at your behest...
...we were riding while keeping our distance from the Grand Vizier.
But we heard a gunshot.
We thought that it would be dangerous...
...and went to the side where the gunshot came from.
I noticed a movement in the woods on the way.
I told the men to continue their way.
I rode my horse into the forest.
Then?
I saw two Armenians working on a detonator.
I think they were removing the assembly.
In order not to leave a trace.
When one of the men took out his gun...
...I had to shoot.
I caught the other.
But when the man was about to speak...
...someone shot from afar...
...and killed the man.
It is now clear why they wanted the Grand Vizier.
They wanted to kill him and hurt the State.
My Sovereign, why didn't they detonate the bomb?
Because there was...
...an important person in the coach...
...that would prevent these arrangements.
The man I caught said an important word before he died.
-What did he say? -He spoke of a raid.
But he was shot before he could say where it will be.
Son.
They want to disturb our peace.
They want to put fear in the hearts of our people.
But neither we nor our people...
...will ever deviate from the right path.
We will defeat those traitors.
İnşallah, my Sovereign.
İnşallah.
That infidel Hiram was also there.
Does a hyena stay in place when it smells blood?
It is clear why they released those children so easily.
Son, you will receive the reward of this bravery.
Both in this world and in the hereafter.
It is my binding duty to fight for my State, my Sovereign.
I only wish for its reward from Allah.
Eyvallah.
You may leave.
My Sovereign.
Ahsen...
...is still my guest.
Do you have an order in this regard?
Ahsen will return to the palace one day.
However, she should want this with her own free will.
She has been entrusted something important.
Something heavy for her, and light for us.
In order for her to pass it on...
...trust is essential.
We will wait and see.
As you command, my Sovereign.
Our plan for Hagia Sophia has failed, Pasha.
This is yours.
Give it to a poor Muslim to play with it.
Mr. Zaharoff...
...the real Hagia Sophia is in the Muslims' hands.
What should they do with the fake one?
We couldn't kill the Grand Vizier either.
I wonder...
...if we kill a mighty Pasha like you instead...
...will we obtain the same result?
Your death will cause a good turmoil, Pasha.
Anyone who goes to the battlefield with Abdülhamid...
...eats his own brains out.
And then makes people eat their brains out.
So Mr. Zaharoff...
...please calm down.
Please.
I did not lose any war I entered.
I can't lose a war, Pasha.
But your situation is clear.
Nothing is over.
We will still raid...
...the Ottoman Bank.
First of all...
I think you should take care of the Greeks...
...that you sent to Hagia Sophia.
Because if they speak...
...you will enter Abdülhamid's workshop as a piece of wood...
...and you will get out in splinters.
Don't worry about them.
I'll take care of them.
How will we stall Abdülhamid?
How will we distract him? You tell me.
Mr. Zaharoff.
I whispered in Abdülhamid's ears...
...about Ghazi Osman Pasha.
Abdülhamid thinks that the governor appointed...
...by Herbert, the Colonial Undersecretary...
...is Ghazi Osman Pasha.
This seed of doubt I planted...
...will displease the lion...
...but will it be enough to break his claws?
If Abdülhamid loses Pleven hero Ghazi Osman Pasha...
...he will be shaken.
He will stumble.
Work will be too heavy for him.
But...
...if Ghazi Osman Pasha...
...kidnaps Sultan Murad, who is decaying in his palace...
...and collaborates with the English...
...to persuade Sultan Murad to ascend to the throne.
That is when Abdülhamid will collapse...
...from his sorrow.
My Sovereign, I took the Greeks in the tunnel to the police station.
I will go to interrogation tomorrow.
Excellent.
My Sovereign, do they want to put a cross on Hagia Sophia...
...to incite unrest?
It is true, Pasha.
They want the Muslims, Greeks, Armenians...
...to pour into the streets...
...and hurt each other.
They want to break our nation to pieces...
They want a State to be created from every piece.
Allah forbid.
Their aim...
...is not to invite the Grand Vizier to negotiate, but to take his life.
How will they do that, my Sovereign?
They placed a bomb on the route the Grand Vizier took.
It would explode as the coach passed.
Thank Allah.
They could not succeed.
Allah forbid.
Ömer brought important news.
He took an important word...
...from one of the Armenians.
A raid.
My Sovereign, I beg your forgiveness. But I don't understand.
How would these gangs have the power to raid?
States that seem friendly to us...
...help them to create unrest.
They use loyal Armenians.
We fight with these States, not with the gangs.
Disposal of the weapons brought to the capital...
...did not stop the Armenian gangs.
However, the question to be asked is this.
Where will the raid take place?
What do you command, my Sovereign?
Call in the Armenian patriarch.
Let us know what he knows.
As you command, my Sovereign.
Welcome, Ömer.
Thank you.
Why did Ahsen sleep here as if she fainted?
Am I a watchman, Ömer? You're asking me about everything.
Did I mean that, Zeynep?
Give me a cup of water first.
Let me cool down.
What's the matter, Ahsen?
You look strange.
What's wrong? Are you sick?
No, I am not.
I went to look for my brother's grave.
I just came back.
For Allah's sake.
Didn't I tell you not to go out?
My brother is not unclaimed.
I was going to pray over his grave.
But they found him before me.
Who found him?
Drink this and tell me.
Those who want to incite unrest.
When I went, they were taking his coffin.
They will take to the streets for Samir's death.
All of them will say that our Sovereign is behind this.
Actually, my brother made me write everything, Ömer.
This is his notebook. It has his signature.
He said that he is regretful, that he was unfair to our Sultan.
Ahsen.
You have to go to our Sovereign...
...and tell him all of this.
What will I say, Ömer? I can't go now.
I wanted to kill the Sultan until yesterday.
I'm not ready to face him yet.
You go and tell the Sultan, but I'll keep the notebook with me.
The only memory of my brother...
All right.
By the way, I'm sorry.
I am a burden to you here.
But I have nowhere else to go.
Do not say that, Ahsen.
Everyone is happy that you are here.
Especially Zeynep.
She is the happiest.
Isn't that right, Zeynep?
Say that you are happy.
Of course.
I'm going. Take care.
My dear Seniha.
Welcome.
What's the matter?
When I see you so sorrowful...
...I feel like attacking everyone in front of me like a raging bull.
My heart is broken Mahmud.
I swear my heart is broken.
Tell the name of the person that torments you so much.
I swear.
I swear I will declare war on him, even if he were English.
My niece Hatice...
She's in love with Kemaleddin, Osman Pasha's son.
How great!
Hatice loves Kemaleddin Pasha, Ghazi Osman Pasha's son.
Like a lamb.
How great!
That's true, but Bidar Kadın is not going to permit this love.
Besides...
Poor Hatice...
...has given up on her love.
Why does this concern Bidar Kadın?
I think she wants Kemaleddin for her daughter Naime.
Bidar Kadınefendi is wise.
She is a woman with strong instincts.
If Ghazi Osman Pasha becomes her relative...
...and if Kemaleddin Pasha becomes her son-in-law...
...no one can stand in her way.
I thought, Seniha...
Bidar Kadınefendi should not reach her goal.
You are very right, Mahmud.
You are very right.
But how? -How?
When Hatice marries Kemaleddin Pasha...
...you will see how this will benefit Sultan Murad the most.
I don't understand, Mahmud. How?
Ghazi Osman Pasha...
...is a powerful father.
Abdülhamid will not be able to let him down.
When Hatice becomes Kemaleddin Pasha's wife...
...she will be able to see her father as often as she wishes.
You are right.
Perhaps we can check on my brother's health once in a while.
Of course.
Seniha.
You...
...tell Hatice...
...if she marries...
...Kemaleddin Pasha...
...she can see her father whenever she wishes.
You will see how Hatice will fight for her love.
Bless your mind, Mahmud.
I take this sword you gifted me...
...and look at it from time to time.
Osman Pasha.
When I was captured in Pleven...
...the enemies did not dare to take it, my Sovereign.
You left such a mark on history...
...that the calls that even if defeated, we are still victorious...
...have been imprinted in our minds.
This is in the past.
I have grown old, my Sovereign.
Even you refrain from sending me to the negotiation.
This is not about your age.
My Sovereign.
Forgive my curiosity.
But why did you send the Grand Vizier?
And asked me to stay in the palace?
Osman Pasha.
Are you not happy to be our guest?
Of course not.
If you order me, I will sleep on your doorstep.
But I wonder if I have made a mistake.
Do you remember, Pasha?
The first years of my reign.
The war of 93 had begun.
We were involuntarily pushed into war by Mithat Pasha...
...and his friends.
At that time...
...you did not stay in Pleven.
You proposed going to Wallachia and Moldovia...
...to meet the Russian soldiers there.
Certainly.
However, it was not accepted by the Serasker of the period.
When we learned this, we sent an order.
That you do not stay in Pleven...
...and raid the Russian armies before they settle down.
Your order reached us two days late, my Sovereign.
At that time, the Russians had settled in their positions.
Then I understood, Pasha...
...that there are many traitors in our State.
Those who did not deliver that order to you that day...
...wanted us to be defeated.
My Sovereign.
History is not written with regrets.
However...
...if only your order had reached us we would have attacked.
That's when I understood.
I will say it now...
...so that I do not regret it later.
Now, Pasha...
...I give you this sword that you gifted me...
...for a while.
Look at this sword and remember our old days...
...when we were loyally devoted to our State...
...and our soldiers who rushed to martyrdom.
Forgive my curiosity.
But why didn't you ask him?
How shall we ask, Pasha?
What shall we say?
How can we ask Ghazi Osman Pasha...
...the great hero of Pleven...
...if he has betrayed his country?
Osman Pasha's betrayal will be very grave, Pasha.
It will be very grave.
Pasha.
Chief.
What is it?
All of them are kept in custody.
Is there anything that attracts your attention?
Most of them are speaking of how unjust they were to our Sovereign.
I think they will answer every question you ask without difficulty.
Excellent.
Let's go and interrogate them, Chief.
Please.
How did we get involved in such a setup?
Stop complaining.
If they ask, you can tell them how we got involved.
I'll tell them.
I will tell them everything.
You are right. Let's tell them everything.
It would be better to question them one by one.
Prepare a room.
As you wish, Pasha.
They will be released after the interrogation.
Pasha.
How can we trust what we are told?
They can make a new plan.
Chief.
These men have been deceived.
The real criminal is the one whispering in their ears.
Look here.
Your boss got us into trouble.
Now we will get him into trouble.
We will tell them everything.
Chief!
What is this situation?
Open the door!
You!
Did they send you?
Alex Zorba was a good man.
He was a devoted man.
He never cared about his life.
He did not care.
I expect the same devotion from you.
What's your name?
Great. Well done.
This is the first rule. You shall never speak.
You will learn the rest while you live in Zaharoff school.
Let your name be...
...Nikola Zorba.
My Sovereign.
Ömer has arrived.
He has news for you.
Send him in.
Tell me, son. -My Sovereign.
Ahsen went to visit her brother Samir's grave.
We had buried Samir secretly to avoid any protests...
...because of his death.
But they found his coffin.
Who found it?
These libertarian youths.
A protest will been arranged.
I reckon they want to take to the streets because of Samir's death.
They believed in the lie that you killed Samir.
What does Ahsen think?
My Sovereign.
Ahsen knows that Sarah has ordered to kill her brother.
Samir made Ahsen write an article before he died.
He said he regretted his opposition to you.
Is there a signature under it, son?
There is my Sovereign.
It is Samir's notebook.
It's obvious that the article was written by Samir.
Find that notebook, son.
Let's publish the article and pictures of the notebook...
...in the newspaper.
This way, we will stand in the way of those...
...who manipulate the youth and slander me.
Selamünaleyküm, Mehmed Pasha.
Aleykümselam, Pasha.
Mehmed Pasha.
What is that, for Allah's sake?
Like two angry children fighting over sweets.
After all, we are relatives.
Our religion is also one.
Why the long face?
I would stay away of anyone so shameless after all this...
...even if he were my brother, Pasha.
Please go your way.
Mehmed Pasha.
Listen.
Even the most trivial incident has an invisible side.
Now...
...this is the palace.
It is impossible to take count...
...of what goes on during the day.
I spend all day doing everything within my power...
...to thwart these games.
Why do I bend over backwards?
For our Sultan.
For my family.
For you, Mehmed Pasha.
Let's assume...
...that armed infidels and anarchists...
...have raided the palace right now.
What do we do?
What will we do, Pasha?
We will risk our lives and protect the Sultan.
There you go, Mehmed Pasha.
There are three or five people who will risk their lives.
One of those three or five is you...
...the other is me.
Snow falls on the hills you trust.
Strong men will escape to the mountains like mice.
For example...
...the hero of Pleven Ghazi Osman Pasha.
What happened to Osman Pasha?
I received a very important intel, Mehmed Pasha.
They say Ghazi Osman Pasha...
...is involved in a plan to re-enthrone Sultan Murad.
He is not alone in this.
He is collaborating with the infidels.
They will overthrow Abdülhamid with the weapons...
...they took from the Armenians and the support of the English...
...and enthrone Sultan Murad instead.
Mehmed Pasha.
Why do you think Abdülhamid kept Ghazi Osman Pasha...
...in the palace last night?
This doesn't sound believable.
However, this is terrifying, Pasha.
Did you share this information with our Sovereign?
Well...
If you want the truth...
...I didn't want to share the information...
...without the consultation...
...of an honourable, reliable and powerful pasha like yourself...
...with our Sovereign.
As you know...
...our Sovereign loves Ghazi Osman Pasha.
If I bring him this intel on my own...
...I am afraid of his anger.
But if there is behind me...
...an honourable and powerful pasha like you...
...then I can bring this news to our Sovereign...
...and go into all kinds of wars.
Hatice.
-Auntie. -Don't get up.
I did not hear you coming.
What's the matter, Hatice? What happened?
Why are you so sad?
My mind and my heart...
...are in a war, whose victor is unknown.
How can I be happy, Auntie?
My beautiful girl.
Why are you hurting yourself like that?
Look, if you go on like this, you will not only upset yourself...
...you will upset me, Kemaleddin, everyone who loves you.
What shall I do, Aunt?
This love is not in my hands anymore.
Dear.
Why do you pick your love flower out of the ground before it blossoms?
Don't give up, Hatice.
Fight for your love.
No need to strive anymore.
All hope is gone.
What do you mean?
I planted the seed of love between Kemaleddin and Naime.
What?
I gave the letter Kemaleddin had sent to me...
...to Naime.
Naime will read the letter as if it were written to her.
Why did you do such a thing, dear?
Aunt.
If Naime loves Kemaleddin...
...they should be given a chance.
If the Pasha really wants me...
...he will fight for me and win despite Naime.
No other way is possible.
So you say...
..."I didn't leave the Pasha to Naime.
I am only testing him.
If he truly loves me...
...he will come despite Naime."
Is that correct?
Very correct, Aunt.
Very correct.
My dear, you say so.
But if that letter got into Naime's hand...
...unfortunately, everything will be over.
I am pleased to see you together...
...standing before me.
If the benefit of the Sublime State...
...requires my association with Mehmed Pasha...
...we surrender to anything, my Sovereign.
It's not just a matter of the State, Pasha.
Every embrace, every reunion...
...is a joy in a Muslim's heart.
My Sovereign.
Mehmed Pasha has come with very important news.
However, it is bad news.
However, it is a great success in terms of intelligence security.
Mehmed Pasha...
...does not want to share this important news with you.
Because he is afraid...
...that this news will hurt your sensitive heart.
The end of weakness in the State is destruction.
Don't hesitate, Pasha.
Please, tell me.
My Sovereign, we have heard that the Armenians and the English...
...are collaborating.
Mehmed Pasha.
Even the infidel's cat is collaborating.
Share the important news with the Sultan.
Osman.
Osman Pasha.
There is intel that he is involved in their plans.
Describe the game before you give names.
Describe the game so that the names involved may have meaning.
My Sovereign.
Sultan Murad will be kidnapped from Çırağan.
The Armenian gangs will revolt.
During this unrest, the English...
...will re-enthrone Sultan Murad.
To succeed in this...
...they need a strong and clever pasha.
Osman Pasha.
My Sovereign.
I didn't want to upset you.
The enemy must be defeated.
You can be defeated.
You can die, you can be captured.
I have no fear as long as you don't shy away from struggle.
However, the betrayal of a Muslim to a Muslim...
...is the real defeat.
My Sovereign.
We are at your disposal...
...to find the traitors among us and do away with them.
The headquarters where Ghazi Osman Pasha...
...contacts the infidels...
...is about to be located.
If you grant me permission...
...I would like to support...
...Mehmed Pasha in this important mission.
I don't deem likely that Osman Pasha is treacherous.
However, we cannot be lenient in this matter.
My Sovereign. According to the important news...
...we have just received...
...abnormal movement in the English ships...
...has been detected in our territorial waters.
You can go in search of what you know about Osman Pasha.
Has the patriarch been called in?
He has, my Sovereign.
Let's see...
...what brought about...
...for the Armenian and English maneuvers at the same time?
May Allah give you a long life.
"My heart is fluttering with your love.
I can only see a future with you, Sultan's daughter."
Mother.
My beautiful daughter.
Thank Allah you're better.
I'm fine.
Your father and I were very worried because you got sick.
Don't worry, mother.
I am all right.
I found my cure.
What happened?
What makes your beautiful face smile like this?
This letter, mother.
These lines are Kemaleddin Pasha's response to my love.
It turns out that love is the redemption...
...for all the days you were sick, Naime.
I hope that the fate of your love will be beautiful, my daughter.
İnşallah, mother.
I want to ask you for a favour.
Tell me, dear.
If you refer the matter to my father appropriately...
...if you let him know...
...then our wish may come true in a short while.
Of course, my dear daughter.
That is the appropriate thing to do.
Do you like flowers, Patriarch Effendi?
I'm not very interested in them.
I am very fond of them.
Like this one.
Mistletoe.
They grow on trees.
It is beneficial to the heart.
It prevents nosebleeds if you mash the fruit...
...and sniff it.
For example these ones.
Valerian.
Perfect for insomnia.
When you mix it with other plants...
...it makes you sleep and never wake up again.
My Sovereign.
Did you invite me to walk around your garden?
We invited you to tell you...
...that there is a cure for every illness in this garden.
There is a cure for every illness, except for ignominy.
Vileness and cruelty.
We invited you to tell you that the cure of betrayal is death.
My Sovereign.
Why welter upon the swamp of betrayal...
...when you can stroll through this beautiful garden?
I think there was a misunderstanding.
The Armenian Church and its community are always loyal to you.
This map is entrusted to you by my grandfather the Conqueror.
Why is it with the Greeks who were going to Hagia Sophia?
It must have been a case of theft.
Believe us, we did not know.
He who cannot protect the entrustment of the State...
...cannot protect his head either.
Well, we can't thank you enough.
You know, this map is the heirloom of Sultan Mehmed the Conqueror.
Thank you. I'll go now.
You heard our Sovereign.
You can leave only after take off the patriarch mitre on your head.
I was elected by the votes of the Armenian community.
I can't resign because you wanted it.
We will see.
Go.
