"One, two, three!" "Hey, she's early!" "Running wild at this hour of the morning!" "Egemen!" "Egemen!" "Egemen!" "We don't sit at the table in our pyjamas." "Are you doing this just to upset me?" "I wish you every success, pasha." " Have a good day, Mahmut Abi." " You too, Egemen." " So if her throat hadn't been cut..." " You can be that explicit?" "But her heart was also injured so it would have been a sudden death." "There would have been rapid blood loss..." " Good morning, Ramiz Abi." " Come in." "Banu Abla gets mad about you sleeping here." "Just so you know..." "Well, she can fuck off." "OK." "Have a good day, Abi." " Hello?" "Yes?" " Hello, Nusret Abi." "It's Egemen." "Can you send us a thing of water?" " Egemen, are you at home?" " No, I'm at work." "Huh." "Hüseyin's left." "Pick it up on your way home tonight." " But mum's at home waiting." " I told you, Hüseyin's left." "Don't make it tough on the new kid." "You can pick it up tonight." "Hello?" " Abi?" " Huh?" "I'll have a word with mum." "Just send the water fast." "It'll be OK." "Just send it." "Or the poor woman will be without water all day." "OK then." "But call her." "Don't mess us around." "OK." "I'll talk to her right away." "Don't worry." "Just send the water." " OK." "Have a good day." " OK." "You too." "Water!" " Who is it?" " It's your water, Abla." "Hüseyin?" "Is that you, son?" "No, it's not, Abla." "Egemen Abi was going to call you." "The boss said so." " He said you'd let me in." " No, I won't!" "I won't!" "Who are you?" "!" "Get away from here!" " Send Hüseyin instead." " Abla!" "Hand over the empty and I'll change them outside." "Clear off!" "Or I'll call the police." "Help!" "Have you gone?" "I told you to leave!" "Is Egemen Bey there, dear?" "Hello?" "Can you get Egemen for me, dear?" "I have an important request of him." "Was Ramiz Abi sleeping here again, Egemen?" " The place stinks again." " I don't know." "Don't stick up for him." "Look, don't lie to me." " I don't know, Banu Abla." " Stop calling me 'abla'!" "I'll tell Umay Hanim." "She'll kick him straight out." "That's what." "He drinks too." "I found the bottle in the kitchen the other day." "No, that was the creative group." " They were celebrating something." " Oh, right." "Like they'd drink that shit!" "Go on, stick up for him then." " Good morning, guys." " Good morning." "Banu, call Tamer at Filmsay for me right away." "Egemen, honey, get me a coffee." "Sure." "Right away, Umay Haným." "Hello?" "Yes, I just got in." "OK, I'll call right away." "What am I supposed to do if the client's uptight?" "So what?" "Am I supposed to go to the set?" "For God's sake!" "Meow!" "No, we showed them the girl's file." "They saw her on- camera audition." "So what's the problem?" "She's hasn't aged on set, has she?" "The girl's only 25." "What?" "You mean she had the child when she was 10?" "There's something called logic, you know." "What does Emre say?" "OK, OK." "Do whatever the hell you want." "This has to go to the studio." "To Gramofon." "Bahadýr's over there." "Step on it." "They're waiting." "OK, Sinan Bey." "I'm off to the studio." "It's urgent." "The kitchen's in your hands." "OK?" "OK." "Re- send it." "Look, if they want coffee, it's your job, OK?" "OK!" "I've got the message!" "Gülseren!" "Gülseren!" "Nut Gülseren!" "Gülseren!" "Gülseren!" "Nut Gülseren!" "What's going on here?" "Huh?" "Aren't you ashamed of what you're doing to the woman?" "You little thugs!" "I'll tear off that ear of yours!" "Come back here once more and I'll hack you all to pieces!" "Go on, do it!" "Any decent human being would tear your arm off!" "Thugs!" "Gülseren Abla!" "Open the door." "It's me!" "Open up, Gülseren Abla!" "It's me." "Look at me through the crack." "It's not a good time, Gülderen dear." "Come back later." "Come on, open that door." "Don't give me grief at this time of morning." "Get some water from the grocer's." "We've run out." "OK." "Anything else you need?" "No." "Just water." "Sorry I kept you waiting." "Welcome." "Ah, thanks." "I wasn't expecting visitors." "Good for Egemen!" "The place is spotless." "Egemen works in a government office." "Ooph, Gülseren!" "Take those away." "Egemen works in a government office." "His boss is very happy with him." "He's going to be promoted." "I know, Gülseren." "Ergin got him the job." "Stop playing games." "You've become totally spoilt." "What kind of talk is that?" "Please, Gülderen!" "You should be thankful." "Thankful he's turned out to be a decent person." "If you could just make a little effort and wash these up, keep the place tidy." "You're always sick!" "You won't admit to being lazy either." "You just make life hell for yourself and for him." "How old is he, and still he has to clean up your shit!" "What cheek!" "God give me patience!" "Then don't call." "Don't text me either." "I'm forcing you, am I?" "Right!" "I don't want to!" "I'm busy, Serkan." "I don't want to talk." "Come in!" " Umay Haným, your salad." " Put it down over there." " Thanks, Egemen." " You're welcome." "Enjoy your lunch." "It's like they all made a pact to call during lunch." "Hello?" "Hello?" "Sinan Bey is out at lunch." "Gülseren!" "Nut Gülseren!" "Come on, Gülseren Abla!" "Come here!" "I've already eaten." "Bullshit!" "What did you find to eat then?" "Get over here and sit down." "Stop giving me a hard time." " I cook." " Like hell you do!" "The stuff Hasibe made has all gone off sitting there in the fridge for God knows how long." " Why didn't you eat it?" " It's poisoned." "That woman tried to kill me." "Huh." "If only!" "I live for the day!" "The woman was lucky to get away." "She ran out screaming, "Help me God!"" "Open your mouth." "I'm telling you, she was going to kill us." "So the house would be hers." "So she could fill the house with peasants and rednecks..." "Open up!" "Come on!" "With dubious types." "You've put the family to shame." "We were once fashionable people." "Oh please!" "Pearl among swine!" "You stink!" "You can't even take a bath by yourself." "Call yourself genteel, do you, Gülseren Haným?" "I'll get someone new in here." "You'd better get along with her." "This is your last chance." "Or we'll lock you up in a hole." "That would work." " Get out!" "Get out of here!" " It's OK." "It's OK." "Don't shout!" "I said it's OK, Gülseren." " Help!" "Neighbours, help!" " It's OK." " They're trying to kill me!" " Come on, it's OK." " Neighbours, help!" " It's OK." "It's OK." "Who are you?" "Get out of here!" "It's OK." "There's no one there." "Come on now." "Look, he's standing there." "Can't you see him?" "There!" "All clean and sweet- smelling!" "Next time I come, we'll dye your hair as well." "Don't come to this house ever again!" "I don't like you." "Gülderen!" "Welcome, pasha!" " I've made dinner for you." " Was Aunt Gülderen here?" "I don't want you seeing your aunt." "She's a black sheep in this family." "I watched something on television today." "A girl tricked a young, well- bred boy into marrying her." "Then she had everything the boy owned put in her name." "She swindled him and then threw him out on the street." "I'm telling you, she threw him out on the street." "If you only saw the young gentleman..." "He lives on garbage dumps now." "The cameras took the whole thing." "They showed it on the programme." "They showed it yesterday too." "And the day before." "Well, yes!" "That sort of thing happens every day." "The world has changed so much." "For heaven's sake be careful, son." "Let's just shut the door and stay at home, you and I." "Look at the state of the streets!" " Everyone's butchering each other." " Mum." "If you carry on, I'll leave the house." "No!" "Please don't." " Egemen." " OK then." "Egemen!" " Good morning, Ramiz Abi." " Come on in." "Abi, don't throw wine bottles in the kitchen trash." "Take them out." "Banu found another one." "She got really mad at me." "Well, tell that Banu to stick ice wherever she's feeling hot!" "How do you come up with these sayings, Ramiz Abi?" "Wait!" "Don't empty that!" "You're very thrifty, Abi." "It's a gift from the creative group." "Don't go telling anyone!" "I made some fresh tea." "OK, goodbye." "Thanks, Abi." "Have a good rest." "As you know, we're an Atatürkist organization." "We're opposed to both military coups and the Shari'a." "How are you doing, Ege?" " Fine." "You?" " Fantastic." "Now listen." "There's a PPM meeting today at 11.30." "OK?" "Now run and get a mix of sweet and savoury pastries." "Half a kilo of each will do." "All right?" "Take this." "Get some of those things with that stuff on top..." " Jellied fruit?" " Right, jellied fruit." "Off you go." " You don't want any éclairs?" " No, they never eat them." "They have cream in them, right?" "It gets all over their lips." "And that looks bad." "But get two for us." " You're in a good mood today." " What's it to you?" "Now get moving." " Good morning." " Good morning." " Hey, don't forget the receipt." " OK." "Hello?" "Who is that?" "I know who you are." "Just wait till Egemen Abi gets home tonight and we'll be at your door with the police." "We've got your number now." "You snake- eyed thug, you!" "Shall I sit on it again?" "Do you want to test it?" "Go on then." "It's weird." "Egemen, come here a second, will you, honey?" "Look, this is a gift from a client." "They really liked the ads we did." "And I was thinking, who's best at their job round here?" "Then I thought of you." "Here, enjoy using it." "Thanks, Umay Haným." "But I've already got one." "I know, but this one's better." "Thank you." "You shouldn't have." " I'm all embarrassed now." " Well, there you go." "Thank you." "Banu, look what Umay Haným gave me." "Well, hey!" "Just look at you!" "But Umay Haným adores you." "You know that, don't you?" " Really?" " Sure." "Didn't you realize?" "I can't open that format." " Are we going upstairs?" " Egemen, honey give these guys a hand." "Welcome." "This way." "Welcome." " Hey, how are you doing?" " Good." "You?" "Hello." "Welcome!" "Welcome, welcome." "Over here, please." "Welcome." " You handle this." " Please have a seat." " What can I get you to drink?" " I'll have mineral water." " Cola for me." " Peach juice." "I'll have a cola, but with ice, please." " Egemen, coffee." " Egemen, tea." " Excuse me, you..." " I asked for mineral water." " Mineral water." " Mineral water, but fruit flavoured." "Fruit flavoured mineral water..." "We have this girl as an alternative." "She has a great smile, great teeth." "But she isn't Mehmet Bey's pick." "Not yet." "I'm not happy with any of them." "I say we keep looking." "Meanwhile, we have a serious problem with the client." "Like what?" "They can't decide on the colour of the girl's shirt." "They're really stressed out about it." "So we need to have another meeting with them." "Look Mehmet, I've had it with this two- faced bullshit." "Pick the girl, roll out a couple of alternative costumes say this is it and they'll buy it." "What's the deal?" " That's what we're trying to do." " They've made a fiasco of the thing." " The guys are really narrow." " Look, unless you stand up to them unless you present a done deal, they'll want meetings for everything." "I can't believe we still haven't shot the ad!" " Umay is seriously pissed off." " We'll handle that." " We can't smoke here, can we?" " Go ahead." "It'll be OK." "Here, let's have one." "What is this?" "!" "You tip water on these kids every day!" "We keep quiet about you being crazy but it's time you knew your place, woman!" "Don't make me blow my top or I'll be round with the police!" "Well, they shouldn't play here." "Tell them to go somewhere else." "Just tell me where." "You don't own the neighbourhood!" " They only have that tiny garden." " I've warned them time and again." "I'm not well." "I have a headache." "Kindly leave my doorway." "Sevim, don't make a scene." "Come on now." "What?" "!" "But he's coughing like crazy." "He gets sick after her soakings." " Drop it, Sevim." "Let's go." " Let go off me!" " Come on, Sevim." "For God's sake!" " But she's soaked them to the skin!" " OK." "Come on, drop it." " Just try doing it once more!" "Get away from here!" "Or I'll call the police." "Thugs!" "Ýstanbul has really gone to the dogs!" "Our precious neighbourhood has turned into a small- town ghetto!" "Don't bother, Egemen." "I won't eat it." "I'm just on my way out." " Have they gone?" " Yes, they have, Umay Haným." "Good riddance to them!" " OK, have a good weekend." " Thanks." "You too." " Have a good weekend." " You too." "I'm taking off, Banu." "I won't be coming back." "If anything important comes up, call me." "If it's not important..." " ...get Sinan to deal with it." " OK, Umay Haným." "Have a good weekend, Umay Haným." "Umay Haným was really mad at that director." "That's perfect." "Now she's gone the others will follow right behind." "So I can leave early." "And tomorrow it's Sunday." "What more could I want?" " It's worked out well for you." " Didn't she eat it?" "Bring it here." " Have a good weekend." " Have a good weekend." "OK, you go and eat now." "Go on." "Hey, that salad was fabulous." "If I had salad for lunch every day like Umay Haným..." " ..." "I'd lose 5 kilos in a month." " You're fine as you are." "Well, thanks." "But I could do with losing a bit." "Your mum called." "The neighbours stormed your house and forced the doors." "Or so she says." " Have a good weekend, guys." " Have a good weekend." "Have a good weekend." "The guys are taking off." "Right then." "See you later alligator!" "OK." " Have a good rest." " Thanks." " Hello?" " You're late." "I was worried." "Today's Saturday." "Ramiz Abi will be a bit late." "Really?" "Oh no!" "When will you be back?" "Egemen, I'd like you to get yourself a mobile phone." "I've got one." "You just don't know about it." "Please will you give me the number?" "No." "Egemen, don't upset me." "Answer me!" "I said, answer me!" "Who are you?" "Who are you?" "!" "Go away!" "Hello?" "Hello." "Hello?" "How are you doing?" " Welcome, Ramiz Abi." " Thanks." "Are you leaving right away?" "I'm going to cook up some eggs." " Have some before you go." " OK." "Need anything from the store, Abi?" "I can go and get it." "No, I have everything." " You want me to get it?" " No." "It'll be my mother." "You're a good kid, Egemen." "You know how to be a friend." "The guy before you was a waster." "He never said two words." "I have no family, nothing." "I'm all on my own." "You've never been married, have you, Ramiz Abi?" "It wasn't meant to be." "Maybe you still will." "I missed that boat long ago." "So watch out." "Don't end up like me." "A man needs a soul mate." "Especially after a certain age it's tough being alone." "Umay Haným is divorced supposedly." "You think they're like us, son?" "The woman has money, a career, everything." "But she's a good person." "She pays my social security." "Ramiz Abi." "I've done the dishes." "I'll be going now." "Bye then." "Saturday nights I feel like leaving this bus and running off." "You're right." "Your sister's flame was here again last night." " At 01.00, 01.30 or something." " How many is that now?" "You're late." "Where have you been?" "Egemen." " I said, where have you been?" " At work." "Where else?" "You're lying." "Government offices close at 18.00." "You can't fool me." "What office?" "!" "What office are you talking about?" "!" "I'm a cleaner." "I serve tea." "I've told you 100 times!" "You're lying." "Just to upset me!" "What's this then?" "!" "You hand me this piece of shit every morning!" "Take a look." "See what's in it!" "Just see the shit in there!" "Enough!" "Aren't you sick of the same thing every day?" "!" "Just get off my back and shut up!" "You've become so ugly." "You're being insulting." "You're not going back to work." " I forbid it." " The hell you will!" "What are you going to eat?" "We have rent from the houses." "We're rich." "The hell we're rich!" "Be grateful to my aunt and uncle." "They're thieves." "They took away our houses. " " I'm going to take them to court." " OK." "Come on then." "Let's take them to court." " Come on, move!" "We're going!" " Let go off my arm!" "Come on." "We'll take them to court." "Let's take them to court and get the houses back!" "Please, Egemen!" "No!" "I won't have to work then." "Move!" "Come on, move it!" "Egemen, please!" "No, we're going to court." "Come on." "Get outside!" "Go on!" "Open the door!" "Egemen, open the door!" "I've had it, Mahmut Abi." "She's making me mental." "She'll drive me to kill her, I swear." "Well, that's understandable, son." "But she's your mother." " What can you do?" " Egemen, she's come round!" " We should take her blood pressure." " How about calling a doctor?" "No, it's OK." "She's come round." "Are you OK, Gülseren Haným?" "What are you all doing in our house?" "There you go." "It's no good trying to help." "Come on, ladies." "Let's go." "The woman's scared." " You should have called a doctor." " God give you patience, son." "Give us a shout if you need to." "Come on, Sevim." "Let's go." "Thanks, Mahmut Abi." "Thanks for coming." "Stay here with your mother." "We'll see ourselves out." "Thanks, Abi." "God!" "Their house is as outdated as they are!" "Was that her husband in the photo?" " Yes, he'd dead." " How did he die?" "They don't say." "I expect he ran off." "I don't ask any questions." "You've made fools of us in front of everyone." "You've put our family to shame!" "Good morning, pasha." "Let's just put it behind us, that unpleasant incident last night." "Come and have breakfast." "Egemen?" "Where are you going?" "To the grocery store." "I'll be back." "Are you really going to the store?" "Are you really going to the store?" "Egemen!" "Egemen!" "Now that the bad luck is gone, maybe I can win now." " C'mon." " C'mon, pass the ball." "We got the ball." "Press man press!" "Come back." "Pass the ball around." "Attack." "To the post!" " Who's that?" " Ramiz Abi?" " Is it you?" " Yes." " Is everything OK?" " Fine." "I just dropped by." " I came to wash my scooter." " Oh, OK." " Egemen?" " Hello, Umay Haným." "What are you doing here on a Sunday, sweetie?" "Washing my scooter." "I had a few things to get done." "Well, I went and forgot my laptop." "Of course I need it now." " Shall I get it for you?" " Go on." "Save me the journey." "Umay Haným forgot her laptop." "She's come to pick it up." " Hey, slow down!" " Here you are." "Oh, damn!" "The mains adaptor was up there too." " I put that in the bag." " You're fantastic." "Thanks." "Thank you." "Egemen, dear, at least don't spend your Sunday here." "Look, it's a nice day." "Get out and about a bit." "OK." "I'm done here anyway." "Thanks." " Good." "Take it easy then." " You too." "Thanks." "Welcome!" "Come on in." "I wish you'd given some warning." "It was spur of the moment, Aunt Gülderen." "Here." "Good for you." "I was cross anyway." "You've avoided us since starting the job." "Sit yourself down." " Aren't the kids around?" " No." "One had a football game, the other went to the movies." "Your uncle's here though." "Ergin!" "Egemen is here." "Sit down." "He'll be right here." "I've made some great meatballs." "Let me give you some." "You'll love them." "Well, if it's no trouble..." " How are things, Egemen?" " Good thanks, uncle." "And you?" "I'm fine." "But how about you more to the point?" "Not bad." "What can I say?" " There you go." " Good." "Rushing around, you know." "Come over." "It's piping hot." "Straight from the oven." " You shouldn't have bothered." " Well enjoy them." "Sit down." "Well done you, Egemen!" "Umay Haným is very happy with you." "See?" "Your uncle and I are keeping close tabs on you." "So you've learned to ride a motorbike." " That was ages ago." " Well done!" "How are things at home?" "Don't ask, aunt." "She's become totally unbearable." "We had another row last night." "What are we going to do, Aunt Gülderen?" " What can we do, sweetie?" " Well, what do you suggest?" "We can't put her in a nursing home." "Not when she has to be sedated to go to the doctor or anywhere." "What would she do there?" "I couldn't bring myself." "She's my sister, after all." "She's developed some new habits as well." "She starts seeing things when she gets really crazy." "She says she sees someone." "What are we going to do?" "You have to be patient a bit longer." "It's the only answer, sweetie." "Now look here!" "He's started coming too often." "Every Sunday!" "What's going on?" "Well, am I supposed to tell him to leave?" "You encourage him, giving him food and whatever." " He'll be moving in next!" " OK." "Don't start this again." "He's just sitting there glued to the television." " What am I supposed to do?" " Do what you like, but count me out." "Isn't uncle coming?" "The match has started." "He has a bit of a headache." "Egemen, dear." "Take this." "The other tenant in Þiþli is moving out in two months." "I've spoken to the estate agent." "He'll find someone new right away." "But aunt, there was no rush." "It's OK." "Well, I should go then." "Thanks for coming." "OK, honey." "Good night." "Our lot are late back too." "See?" " What about uncle?" " He's in the bathroom." " I'll say goodbye for you." " OK then." " Good night, aunt." " Say hello from me." "I will." " Curly lettuce or iceberg?" " Curly." " How much is that, Abi?" " Fifteen liras, Egemen." "Don't close the door." "It lets in the hall light." "Are you scared of the dark?" "It's me you should be scared of." " Good morning, Umay Haným." " Good morning." "Good morning, guys." " Coffee?" " No." "You know that green tea I had?" " Some of that." " Sure, right away." "Hello?" "OK." "I'm putting you through." "I hate Mondays." "They're always so busy." "The client's coming for a viewing this evening." "Today will be hell." "Umay Haným seemed kind of down." "She obviously had a bad weekend." "That guy will drive her crazy." "She should just dump the bastard." " Maybe she already has." " I wish!" "And he's all dark, scrawny and obnoxious." "I don't know what she sees in him." "The guy's a complete asshole, OK?" "He's supposedly left his wife and all that." "But the hell he has!" "He's juggling them both." "He can't give up his precious routine." "Look, we haven't had this conversation." "OK?" "OK." "What time will it be done?" "Shall I come and take a look beforehand?" "No, I'll send Egemen." "Give him a copy and I'll watch it here." "OK, good luck then." "Egemen, Sinan's at the studio." "He's going to give you a CD." " Off you go now and get it." " OK, Umay Haným." " How are you doing, Egemen?" " Fine, thanks." " Here." " Have a good day." " Goodbye." " Goodbye." " Are you OK?" "Did you get hurt?" " I'm fine." "I'm fine, thanks." "Wait..." "It's OK." "I'm fine." "Thanks a lot." " Thanks." " Take it easy now." "This is for accounts, Umay Haným." "Here you go." "Ah, Egemen." "Are you back?" "Oh God..." "What's happened to your hand?" "It's bleeding." " It's nothing." "I'm fine, Umay Haným." " Did you fall off the bike?" "Really, it was nothing." "The motorbike's fine too." "What do I care about the bike?" "You are OK, aren't you?" "Honestly, I'm fine, Umay Haným." "There was water all over the road." "So the bike slipped of course." "Oh, Egemen!" "There was no rush." "Why didn't you take your time?" "No really." "I'm fine, Umay Haným." "OK, go to the pharmacy and get yourself bandaged up." " OK." " I'm so sorry." "No problem." "Hey, come on." "Enough!" "It's only a 30- second ad." "They've been banging on for two hours now!" "Are they drinking?" "Great!" "We'll be stuck here all evening." "Your mother called." "She says there's a guy in a shirt staring at your house." "Thanks a lot." "Thanks." "I'll stop by tomorrow anyway about the billboards." "OK." "Suat Bey, don't worry about that small detail." "It'll only take an hour to fix." "We'll do that tomorrow." " Thanks." "Goodbye." " Goodbye." "Just drop it, Serkan." "For God's sake!" "You can't even make up excuses any more." "Don't give me that!" "Your life is just a bullshit lie!" "I mean, how..." "I don't see how you can live with yourself!" "How can you sleep when your head hits the pillow at night?" "Do you have no respect at all?" "Not even for yourself?" "Egemen, dear." "Don't wait for me." "You should go." "It's OK, Umay Haným." "Ramiz Abi will be a while anyway." "I'm waiting for him." "I've forgotten my laptop!" "Shall I take you home, Umay Haným?" "Come on." "Come on now." "My keys." "Umay Haným." "Maybe we should take a taxi" " Can you drive?" " No." "OK." "I'll drive then, and you watch the road." "Let's take a taxi." "It's late." "We don't want any trouble." "No!" "Don't turn it on!" "It's horrible!" "Shall I make you some coffee?" "Should I go?" "Sometimes I just want to pack up and leave this place." "I'm tempted to just switch off the phone and get out." "Everything is a lie." "Everyone..." "All lies..." "You're great, Egemen." "People like you are hard to find these days." "It's amazing you've stayed just as you are." "You're a really good person too, Umay Haným." "Sometimes I just want to pack up and leave this place." " Egemen?" " Yes?" "Did I fall asleep?" "Why didn't you wake me up?" "What time is it?" " It's almost 01:00." " Why didn't you wake me up?" "Oh no!" "Were you waiting for me?" " You should have gone." " OK." "Thanks so much, Egemen." "Sorry for the trouble." "No, don't get up." "I'll see myself out." "Is there anything you need, Umay Haným?" "No, thanks." "I'll go straight to bed anyway." " OK." "I'll be going then." " OK." "Off you go then." "Egemen, wait!" "I'll give you the taxi fare." "There's no need, Umay Haným." " Let's not argue about it." " You really don't have to." "We have a couple of houses let out." "I mean, I'm not so badly off." "That's not the point." "Now here, take this." "Think of it as production expenses." "OK?" "Anyway I've troubled you at this time of night." " No, not at all, Umay Haným." " Egemen?" "Don't come to work till late tomorrow." "You've missed out on sleep because of me." "Egemen?" "Thanks." "Mum!" "Mum!" "Mum!" "Open the door, mum!" "Open up!" "Mum, open the door!" "Open up!" "Hello?" "Oh no!" "Well, get better soon, Umay Haným." "OK, Umay Haným." "All right." "Is there anything you need?" "OK." "I hope you feel better soon." "Umay Haným is sick." "She won't be in today." "Hey, what's going on?" "I said she was sick, not dead!" "God forbid!" "Egemen?" "Egemen?" "Egemen, what's the matter?" "Let's go." "Come on." "Let's get out of here." "Just the two of us." "I..." "I'm a good person." "I won't give you a hard time." "Not at all." " Really I won't." " Egemen, what is this?" "You said everything was a lie." "Well, I'm not." "Come on, let's go." "Go where?" "Have you lost your mind?" " Egemen, get out of here!" " Umay..." "Umay Haným, open the door." "Pleaase." "Egemen, get out of here or I'll call the police!" "Egemen, I'm sorry." "Look, you've got me all wrong." "Last night, I was..." "Oh, Egemen..." "How much?" "Fifty?" " 50." "Ramiz Abi, I want to ask you something." "What happens when you smoke that stuff?" "You get a buzz." "If you got hacked to pieces you wouldn't feel a thing." "You remember though." "You think you've forgotten..." "but then you remember." "And you can't believe it." "To begin with, it makes you laugh." "Then it makes you more daring." "But in the end it finishes you off." "Don't even think about trying it." " How much?" " Just give me..." "I don't know, give me 10 lira's worth." "So you're saying this is the best, right, Mahmut Abi?" "Well, it's the best I've got." "Thanks, Abi." "OK." "Add it to the bill." "I'll pay tomorrow." " I don't have it on me now." " All right." " Thanks." "Take it easy." " Goodbye." "Mothers sometimes punish their children like this." " I hope you've learned a lesson." " Yes." "Mum!" "Mum!" " Is this a reconciliation dinner?" " Yes, mum." "Just the two of us." "Look, I got some wine too." "Good." "Let me change into something nice then." "OK." "Put on your best dress." "You're only to have one glass, all right?" " Any more is bad for you." " OK." " What do you think?" " Fantastic!" "I haven't worn this since I was a young girl." "I haven't put on a gram, Egemen." "I can still get into it." "I was so elegant back then." "There was a model called Twiggy." "Very famous." "Everyone said I looked like her." " You're still elegant, mum." " Thank you." " Well?" " I'm sorry." "So what are we having?" " Salad, steak and red wine." " A classy meal." "Egemen." " The music is missing." " I'll put some on." " How's this?" " Marvellous!" "I'm proud of you." "You're a dutiful son." " I'll forgive you for misbehaving." " Thanks, mum." "That's all right." "But only because of tonight." "Don't forget." "OK." "Thank you." "Hey, what's this?" "It's all dried out." "Really?" "And it tastes so different." "Well, maybe that's because the wine is top quality." "Oh well, whatever." " But you don't smoke!" " Just tonight." " Only one though." " OK." "Don't they play beautifully?" "Oh!" "My head's like a Ferris wheel." "Well!" "That wine is something!" "I got the grocer to put it on our bill." "I said I'd pay later." "The hell I will!" " I said I'd pay later." " Don't!" "Don't pay for it." "Mahmut Efendi can eat shit!" "Colours..." "There are colours." "Close your eyes and they're better." "Greens and reds..." "Beautiful!" "Can you see them?" "I can see the countryside." "I'm just standing there." "There are green plains." "Bright green." " No, there aren't." " Yes, there are." "I'm there but it's like I'm there but I'm not really there." "Turn it off." "It's like the violins are in the room." "I..." "What damn violins?" "!" "You're off your head, Gülseren Haným!" "This stuff's blowing my mind!" " You know what?" " What?" " You see this phone?" "Umay..." " Yes." " Umay..." " Umay said, "It's yours"." "She gave me the phone, OK?" "But I've no idea how it rings, what kind of sound it makes." " No one calls me, right?" " Who would call you, idiot?" "!" "Look, you don't even have a girlfriend." "What would anyone want with you?" "Bottoms up, Gülseren Haným!" "Umay has kicked me out anyway." "They opened the doors like this." "I make my entrance." "Everyone's looking at my ankles." "I have exquisite ankles." "I walk like this." "Greetings left and right..." "Graceful nods..." "Abba was around at the time." "They're playing." "Charity fetes, school tea parties, this and that." "I remember the fairgrounds." "You don't see many of those today, do you, Egemen?" "Huh?" "What's happening?" "Get off me!" "Help!" "Quiet!" "Quiet!" "Help!" "Are you hungry, girl?" "I'll come and take your gag off." "But don't scream or I'll beat you!" "Shut up, girl." "Nobody can hear you here anyway." "What's your name?" "Are you thirsty, girl?" "Don't be scared." "I won't kill you." "I'm not that heartless." "I'll leave the door unlocked in the morning." "Then you can go." "Kick off." " Shoot!" " This game is so slow!" " What kind of a play is that?" "!" " Shoot!" "Gülseren!" "Gülseren, darling!" "Where have you been?" "!" "Where have you been the last three days?" "!" "We won't tell anyone what happened, Nermin." "The family's honour is at stake." "She's just a young girl." "God!" "Look, what's befallen us!" "OK." "We'll keep everything quiet." "We'll forget the whole thing." "Mum, Gülseren has woken up!" "We'll tell the police we found you that you stayed with a friend for a few days." "We're moving out of the area at once." "Somewhere far away." "Your aunt's arranged everything." "We'll be on the other side." "The family's honour is at stake." "You're just a young girl." "You'll get over it, darling." "The Lord has given you back to me." "We'll forget." "We'll forget the whole thing." "Nermin." "Take your sister upstairs." "There's a few things left." "I'll be along." "Come on, Gülseren." "Come on in, Gülseren." "Gülseren, please say something." "Please speak!" "Make an effort." "Please!" "It's OK, dear." "Don't be afraid." " It's only the doctor." " It's OK." "It's OK." "All this has happened and you're only telling me now?" "!" "How could you leave it so late?" "Did you have no idea at all?" "She's almost four months pregnant." "It's out of the question now." "Her belly hasn't grown, doctor." "How were we supposed to know?" "For goodness sake!" "Come on!" "Can we have a word in private, doctor?" "She hasn't spoken at all." "Not a word." "It's as if she remembers nothing of what happened." "You're to bring your caretaker here." " What was his name?" " Hüseyin." "Hüseyin..." "Didn't you say he was going back to his village anyway?" "He can stay with us here for a few months." "We'll get them married." "We'll pay him a small sum and it'll all be solved." "The family's honour is at stake." "As long as the doors of this house are closed to the outside world no one can say a word." "Private matters should remain private." "And they will so long as we hold our heads high." "Look at the camera, please." "Smile!" "I already knew but..." "Well..." "I knew it." "So what?" "It's all over." "They always lied about it." "Saying this and that..." "Bitches!" "But I stayed alive for you." "There was you." "Dying was an easy way out." " But there was you." " What are you talking about?" "Slowly everything's calming down." "Everything's slowly calming down." "We're fine." "Just fine." "There isn't a problem." "I suddenly remember that fairground again." "I want to go with my father." "I was just a child then." "But so what?" "Lmagine I'm there now." "Imagine..." " ...everyone's blameless." " What are you talking about?" "It's all right." "Just forget it." "To hell with it!" "There's you." "Egemen?" " What?" " Shame on you!" "What's wrong?" " I want something sweet." " So do I." "What time is it?" "You're asking me?" "!" "How on earth would I know?" "Oh God!" "I was meant to be taking you out." "I forgot about that." "What did you forget?" "The real object of all this." "God, what's in this stuff?" "We're completely wasted!" "Come on then, Gülseren Haným!" " We're going." " Where?" " To the dessert place." " We're going out?" " Yes." " How do you mean?" "But you're supposed to be more daring." "Where's the daring?" "That was part of the deal!" "Come on!" "Look, I'm daring." "Let's go!" " Are you coming too?" " Of course I am." "Ooph!" "When you nod like that, it hits you again." "Come here." "Come on!" "Let's hit the road." "If it doesn't work out, we'll come back." "I feel like having milk and almond pudding." " Sure." "That, baklava, you name it..." " I'm thirsty as well." "We'll get a drink too." " Everything's spinning." " Sure." "That's normal." "Wait!" "I was falling." " Ah, the steps!" " Careful!" "We're getting down them, see?" "What's the problem?" "Wait." "Slow down!" "Egemen, I'm frightened." "But I mean, only a bit." "What are you frightened of?" "The outside world?" "The outside world has chewed us up and spat us out, Gülseren Haným." "Why are you frightened?" "Hold on to me tight." "Are you?" " Yes." " Right." "Keep holding on." "Look!" "Your lot are coming back from a night out." "Bitches!"
