Quick synopsis: A date night. Some stolen moments. Sabiha faints.
Dilan is sure now that Sabiha is her biological mother. Still doesn't make what she put the lovebirds through any less real. In fact, it makes things worse. Dilan is Dilan of course, so she tries to put herself in Sabiha's shoes, to understand. She and Gul rehash things in an effort to make sense of it all. And beyond that, there's forgiving for herself and that's one thing, but for what happened to Baran, not so much.
Cevriye's cousin Yasmin is a bit of a pill.
Dilan wants to tell Baran the news, but says it's "hella hard". That made me laugh.
Kader made Firat take the necklace back. Outing their secret now is not a good idea. Or maybe if she knew he had the right to...As in he and Gul are practically family...
Poor Firat. Can't catch a break or a cuddle.
Baran is being supportive and not pushy. They will have a night out, he says.
Havin is worried about Sabiha and tells Dilan so.
Cevdet is pretty good natured about Yasmin descending on them.
The Karaboys talk in idioms. Then they have the kind of happy family jovial joking with Dilan they've all dreamed about: Dad up and around, a newly married couple, a younger brother entering the family's business.*
The new Demir restaurant looks a lot like the old one.
Harun and Yasmin complain about each other to Cevriye and Cevdet respectively.
The lovers are cheeky and flirty. There's lots of calling each other by their full names. They ride a bike through town, Dilan sitting in front while Baran does the work. It's very date-night in here. He even replies, "thank you" when Dilan says, "I love you", like she did when he first said it. Goof.
Did Sabiha get a perm?
Cevahir drops by. He isn't very moved by her wavy hair. Oh Wait! He was in jail! This is not good. He wants to know who ratted him out. He makes threats, fishing for info, hoping she'll crack.
His hair is very stand-up-ish today. Judging by the hair, everyone is riled up.
Sbiha doesn't crack. She is worried that Baran knows her mom secret though.
Dilan is wrestling with how to tell him exactly that. Ahmet finds her sitting under a tree. He's very Zen today: Look to Nature; remind yourself where you get your strength. Those who love you won't want to see you suffer.
His hair is pretty normal.
Azade is glad Hasan gets a reprieve and can stay. She and Baran differ on what it means to be a Karabey though. (Duh.) Hasan will mess up again and his grace period extends only until then.
As if on cue...
He complains to Kader and sends her back to do a bunch of work for his snacking pleasure.
Kudret is right there though with a message of "you're not off the hook'. And a "shut your pie hole". I know I've said it before, but that man's scowl is fierce.
Sabiha and Dilan have a private chat. She confirms that Baran doesn't know yet.
But he's coming through the garden and sees them.
Sabiha doesn't mention her fear of Cevahir finding out Dilan is her daughter. But all the stress and not eating catches up with her. She faints dead away.
Dilan looks around for help and sees Baran.
Yelling at the tv:
* I suspect this banter is the kind of life Baran always dreamed about when he pictured getting married. And Dilan has all this new family, all these new men in her life, a part of a larger, stable family. It must be what they both would wish for, when they were able to think of themselves and their fondest dreams. That's what this little bit of silliness with the four of them feels like anyway.
Culturisms:
There's this crazy fountain outside near the gazebo. Hasan washes up in it. Just like a quick face splash, but...is that what it's for? Or is that just to show again how uncouth Hasan is?
