A True Gentleman (2024) Movie Script
1
I'm a bad dog
Scratching at your door
Just a bad dog
I keep 'em coming back for more
It's about being a true gentleman,
not about money.
But if I don't get it, things go bad.
They get their hearts broken.
It's the only option.
Being everything to someone...
For the bad dog
...but then also nothing.
Have you ever healed a woman,
kissing her where it hurts the most?
Forgive me.
Sometimes I'm an ex-boyfriend
who disappeared.
Sometimes, the most fun she's ever had.
Sometimes, a dangerous stranger.
I become whoever they want me to be.
But at the end of the day,
they all need the same thing,
to not feel ashamed...
...of the dark...
or the light.
Someone might come.
I want you to come.
A TRUE GENTLEMAN
How dare you speak to me like that!
Don't take it that way.
I was being honest.
Don't yell.
You're disturbing clients.
If they're clients, what am I?
Am I not a client? Ma'am, what did I do?
What didn't you do? Asshole.
Oh my God.
-I would admit if I'd done something.
-Kadir. Come here.
Uh-huh.
Ma'am, I'm sorry.
Do excuse him.
Now, can you tell me what's the problem?
He came up to me
and started making innuendos.
Pressing me to take his card.
I was very direct.
No innuendos.
If you felt the electricity,
you can call me anytime.
Nobody's gonna judge you for it.
Kadir, please apologize to her.
I'm sorry.
No, I don't want his apology.
He's just gonna do it again.
You can eye me up
but I can't? That's bull.
Can you send security to reception?
Security doesn't scare me, you asshole.
-Gentlemen, there's a lady.
-Wait and see!
This happens if you let anyone in!
-Keep it closed, like this.
-I'm on it.
Let me apologize on his behalf.
Come over here.
Let me explain.
I'm certain you'd understand.
I can tell that you're a, uh...
an intelligent, mature woman.
What's going on?
His fiance has just left him.
And I wanna keep an eye on him.
The gym was my idea.
But he isn't well.
This anger erupts from him
when he sees a beautiful woman.
-Hakan, take him.
-Hold it! Wait.
You said that he's your friend?
Hmm. He is.
I'm sorry this is how I met you.
Call me Saygn.
They approach, not you.
That's just always been the rule.
-Remember?
-Uh-huh.
So they're ladies if they do it,
but we're cavemen?
What is it, Kado? Hmm?
Just work out in peace and then go.
Fuck off.
You have it all. Your calendar's full.
It's not like the old times, is it.
No work anymore.
And I'm trying to bulk up, but come on.
You asshole.
-Kado.
-Yeah?
After your shower, we're buying a tux.
Huh?
A tux, you say?
-Ahh.
-Mm. Hurry up.
Happy New Year, everybody!
I feel him comin' girls
We ain't seen him yet
I feel him comin' girls
Mm.
Wipe your mouth. She's coming.
Ms. Emel.
She's in fashion, owns her own boutique.
She likes the classics.
So just missionary. I got her.
-Ms. Emel.
-Shh.
Too quiet.
-The red dress.
-The red dress.
-Aylin.
-Aylin.
She just got divorced.
Broken-hearted.
Into plastic surgery.
-They did a bad job.
-Hm?
Hmm. Look, her fucking nose is melted.
So rude!
That's why it doesn't work.
That's why they never call a second time.
That's bullshit.
Who else treats them like I do, Saygn?
They're not just some horny dogs.
They have other needs, as well.
What kinda needs?
Tell me, please, so I can learn.
You gotta make 'em feel
how special they are, okay?
As far as I can see,
no one here is doing that.
So, that's where we come in, Kado.
They feel it
every time I come in, don't worry.
You know, like real special.
I see this isn't gonna work. Let's go.
Hey. Stop.
Hey, I'm just a little intimidated
'cause they're too fancy.
-Just be kind.
-Okay.
-Come.
-Okay.
Pick one.
Hmm. Oya, orange purse.
Resume?
She was once married
to a very rich Frenchman,
and now she's enjoying the alimony.
"How much money did you get?"
Sounds good?
-Go with sports.
-Sports.
-She runs every morning.
-Every morning.
Her beauty was too much,
and you simply had to meet her.
The student has truly become the master.
Don't do that, Kado!
It's fine, Saygn.
Go on.
I'll come in like you told me to.
All right, then.
Psst!
Be a true gentleman, Kado.
I got this.
Good evening, Ms. Oya.
Will you be as stunning
this year as the last?
-You're so sweet, Mr. Arif.
-You're sweet too.
Who's your husband dancing with, Serap?
All the tears that
Cheers.
All the tears that we cry
Just this tomorrow.
Of course.
Thank you.
He will feel your
He will feel your presence...
Thank you so much!
-Are you good?
-You just saved my life.
Oh, it's broken.
Here, let me take that.
Hold on.
They're too big, but they were
a New Year's gift so I couldn't say.
You go ahead. Sorry.
It'll be hard to walk. I can help.
-Don't worry, I can manage.
-Okay.
Enjoy!
You too.
When your body
When your body
When your body says goodbye
Thank you very much!
We'll be back after a short break.
Why'd you stop?
I forgot the rest.
You've solved it.
Kinda.
I think I know this one but...
Would you?
Let's just give it a go, shall we?
Oh, my beloved
How is life going in the gardens?
Are you soaring in the sky
With the colorful butterflies?
Are there rivers there?
Rivers that flow below us?
Oh, my beloved
I've been missing you
Oh, my beloved
Something like that, right?
Thank you.
Not many people know that.
I guess we're lucky, then.
Excuse me.
You don't like them, do you?
Just because people wanna celebrate,
all those cute, little birds die.
They're barbaric, and you like 'em.
I used to. Back then.
I'll leave you alone
with the fireworks, then.
We'd say, "Someone's happy
so they're celebrating." It felt good.
"Someone's won the national lottery."
"They can afford treatment now."
"Someone's found their first love.
They're 86."
Dreams that we'd invent.
These dreams are so nice, I guess
you can't hate fireworks anymore.
Thank you.
So, is there anything
everyone else loves, but you hate?
Cigarettes.
Overcooked pasta.
Oh, and snacks, 'cause they leave trash.
Yeah, you can't hate snacks, I'm afraid.
It's gotta be
a little more serious than that.
Covers of really good songs,
I really hate that.
Oh, yeah?
It's never as good.
But you've just...
Me?
You weren't bad.
Gee, thanks, I guess.
I mean,
I may have butchered the song, but...
I won't perform, anyway.
I'll say my heel broke.
It was an accident, you saw.
I did, yeah.
Well, the first one, anyway.
You said something about you performing.
It was her idea.
She said people would film me
and I'd be a hit on social media.
Like anyone actually cares.
I don't know about the rest,
but I'd love to listen to you.
Excuse me.
Yes?
-Go to the room, I'm coming.
-Okay.
I'm sorry, but I have to go
meet my friend. Are you staying?
I was going to see my friend, too.
That was actually hers.
-Uh...
-Uh, here.
-Oh, no, you enjoy it.
-I didn't drink out of it.
Bye.
Let's meet in half an hour.
She's all alone up there.
Um...
No problem.
I'll see you in half an hour, then.
Bye.
See you soon.
-What are you doing?
-I wanna give you your gift.
You've been drinking.
Haven't you been? Here.
Come here.
Come on, kiss me.
What's wrong?
Tell me what's wrong.
Your husband is here.
My husband?
My husband is busy.
He's dancing.
Happy New Year.
You can exchange it if you don't like it.
Tell me what happened.
It's the same as always.
He says he has back pain in bed,
but when he sees a girl, he can dance.
I have the urge to go slap him
in front of everyone, humiliate him!
Wouldn't divorce be the better option?
Mm-mm. Fulya can't handle it.
Fulya or...?
Can I ask you to do something for me?
Don't see them anymore.
I'll take care of you.
What happened?
I was walking to the stage,
but my heel broke.
I can't go on like this,
I'd be humiliated.
You know she'll be mad. She set it all up.
I didn't do it on purpose.
Help me think of a reason.
You can't say no to her,
so you just run away.
Be like me and say you won't do it.
Oh, like it's so simple, right?
For god's sake.
Well, it's fine by me.
These lenses are stuck to my eyes.
Can we go if you're not performing?
I'm only here for you.
No, let's stay, we'll have fun.
What could be fun here?
Please stay longer.
You know, a man like you deserves
a better life than this, don't you?
Is it worth doing just for the money?
Believe me, you won't be needing
the pocket money that they pay.
It's not like that.
What is it like?
Do you do it for free?
For god's sake, who would want this?
Is this the life you think suits you?
I don't know
how you have the stomach for it.
I'm gonna order you some coffee.
And we'll forget about this conversation.
I'm sorry. Saygn. Saygn, please.
Please, I'm sorry.
Look, don't go.
Why is it so hard?
Why is it so hard to commit to a woman?
Maybe it's just hard to commit to me.
Tell me the truth.
Do you think I'm dull?
Or am I too old?
What? It doesn't matter, you can say.
Shh.
You
are perfect.
You're gorgeous.
I should let him know.
It's rude to just leave.
You're easily impressed, aren't you.
-But he knows Flrt.
-Good for him.
Not that many people know them.
And he didn't mind my blabbering.
Of course you were blabbering.
Okay, I'll be back.
I want everything
in your life to be great.
You can live in any house you want,
and you can drive any car.
I won't meddle, I promise.
I just don't want you to see anyone.
Oh, and you can't return a gift.
It's very rude.
Ah!
Yeah!
Ooh!
Feels good.
It's the time to show you
What's in my stall
Just friends ain't gonna do me at all
The time to turn the heat up is now
Can't you see
That I don't want you to go?
That I wanna be the star of your show
So turn the lights down
The music real low
The time to turn the heat up is now
What's in your heart?
Can it be true
Is this the start
Of me
A me and you?
Hey! Is your dick now solid gold?
You shoulda called,
Serap will be here in a minute.
Housewarming gift.
Kado.
Whoa. What kinda house is this?
-It's unbelievable.
-Kado, don't start.
And?
Kado's room is...?
-I'm kidding.
-There.
Bullshit.
Mm-hmm. Look.
Am I gonna live here too?
-Doggy?
-Of course.
On the condition you leave
when Serap is here.
-You're not gonna cry, are you?
-Yeah, right.
I'm having an orgasm
out of pride, you motherfucker.
Look, you can't just sit around, man!
Make your dreams come true.
Come take a photo of me.
-For my profile.
-Oh, Kado.
Come on, Saygn, look at this place.
Give it here.
Here you go.
Turn. Turn around.
Look at me.
I'm gonna ask you something.
Tell the truth.
-What?
-Have you paid off your debt?
The day you gave me the money
I went and paid the... the money.
Don't worry about me.
I'm not sitting around anymore.
I'm working later.
You're not mixing
with the wrong people, are you?
She likes Italian pizza, you know.
And I said, "I'll feed you, signora."
Is that the wife?
What did I tell you, man?
-Making me take your photo in...
-Okay, man!
Welcome.
Got mulled wine? I'm a bit cold...
-Um, the pizza guy is leaving.
-Hi.
He brought the wrong order.
I didn't ask for sujuk.
-You didn't order sujuk?
-I didn't.
I'll let the restaurant know,
so they can do a proper job.
Please do. Please do.
-Have a good day.
-Have a good night.
And he wanted to use the bathroom.
-Do you think he recognized me?
-I don't think so.
But he won't forget.
Yeah?
Hell, yeah.
I'm gonna wanna see your eyes this time.
All right.
You're tense. Is something wrong?
Mmm. It's Fulya's birthday tomorrow.
How nice. Your daughter.
Apparently, there's nothing to celebrate.
She hates everything anyway, so...
She only likes music.
-Doesn't she have any friends?
-She does.
She does,
but her best friend is too beautiful.
I think she makes her feel insecure.
I wish she knew how beautiful she is.
-But she doesn't think that, huh?
-Mm.
She doesn't like herself.
If someone else liked her,
would it change her mind?
Someone else?
Ah, here's my pizza man.
Someone like a friend I trust.
He's a very clean, proper guy.
He's dignified.
He's as good as gold.
Kind.
You should see him.
A true gentleman.
We could make them run into each other.
Imagine our guy enters,
she catches his eye,
so they talk.
Maybe her confidence increases.
She'll feel attractive, as well.
Yeah?
And you really trust this person?
Would I tell you otherwise, Serap?
Mm-hm.
Will you be there as well?
If you want me to be.
Thank you very much.
This song is for Aye.
She'll be here soon.
-Thank you.
-Let's go, then.
-What the fuck is this, it tastes like...
-Shh.
-We agreed.
-Okay, no swearing.
Look, it's a high-end job.
But she's sensitive.
-You've gotta be subtle.
-I'll act like I'm serious about it.
Act like she's someone special.
Don't worry about a thing.
She's here. Upstairs. Black dress.
Come on,
she'll chase me away with a broom, man.
Just don't be an asshole.
Kado, buy her a drink.
-Are you sure?
-Just get her a cocktail, will you?
Sex on the Beach.
Jeez, Kado.
-I'll get on up there, then.
-Yes, go.
Psst.
-Be a true gentleman.
-I got this.
Sorry, excuse me.
-All good? Did you understand?
-Yeah, we're good.
And do you definitely
have the right table number?
We do.
And the karaoke is ready?
Yes, miss.
Acoustic version, that's very important.
Right, yeah. You know what? Good luck.
Just so you know, we're upstairs, okay?
This is a pleasure.
Saygn.
I like fireworks.
Ah! Yeah, I remember. Firework Saygn.
Mm.
You are mad. Fair enough.
'Cause you stood me up? No.
They played really good covers,
and I danced till the morning,
but you wouldn't have liked it.
Is that so?
Sure sounds good.
Well, see ya.
Excuse me.
I know I messed up.
But I had an urgent thing.
Too urgent to say anything?
I really couldn't.
Uh huh, you couldn't spare two seconds?
I would've wanted more.
-Well, I've gotta go.
-What's your name?
Nehir.
The girl who hates fireworks.
Nehir.
-Where've you been, Nehir?
-I'm here now.
-You were talking to someone.
-Just an acquaintance, that's all.
You made me dress up like a nymphomaniac.
I assume he's thinking that.
-Who?
-Him.
He's been eyeing me up for two hours.
Maybe he likes you.
It's my chest he's looking at.
There are plenty of racks around here.
He's looking at your face.
I never said that!
DON'T WORRY, EVERYTHING'S OKAY.
Evening, ladies.
Excuse me, but something caught my eye.
Yeah, I saw.
-No, I meant your smile is beautiful.
-Oh, God!
You... You like my smile?
I do.
Sorry.
Yes?
-Job's off.
-What?
-The job's off.
-Huh? I can't hear you, man.
The job is off. Abort.
What? Where are you?
At the bar, behind you.
Sorry, ladies.
I'll be back in about a minute.
"Ladies"? No.
I think it's cute.
-What happened? It was going so well.
-We're not needed anymore.
-Two double whiskeys.
-Leave the whiskey, we're leaving.
-Okay. Bring the whiskey!
-No whiskey. Kado.
Please, don't get wasted again, just...
-Let's go dance.
-What?
I'm the one who gave you this job,
and I'm saying that it's off.
-But I got this! Just relax, chill out!
-Okay? Kado.
We're here for you, to celebrate.
-Just drop it, I don't wanna.
-Come on!
-Or I'm gonna make both of us regret it.
-You're bluffing.
I'll go tell him
that my friend
is gonna show him her smile.
-I'm gonna fuck you up.
-You won't.
-Nehir! Don't! Get a hold of yourself!
-I'll get us a drink.
-Keep your mouth shut. Zip it.
-Come on! Just don't...
-Two tequila shots.
-Sure.
She doesn't even like you.
-You've tried all you can...
-Is that what she said?
She didn't say it, I just know.
Oh, well, if she didn't say that, man...
Then let's go talk to 'em.
-Hi.
-Kado.
Sorry to bother you again. I needed
to make sure. Is it a crime or...?
Sorry, what?
I wanna know if us liking you
is a crime or not.
You treat me like I'm a pervert,
okay, fine, I get it.
But if you're gonna treat him
like a pervert, as well,
we're really gonna have
a problem, Miss Curly.
He's had a bit
too much to drink. I'm sorry.
This man's golden.
What on Earth makes you think
that this man could be a pervert?
No one's calling him a pervert.
But I'm afraid that you are full of shit.
What do you mean?
You said that you thought
her smile was pretty.
Let's go, Kado.
There's this thing called imagination.
-But I will make sure she smiles later on.
-We'll see.
-Let go!
-Please, don't...
-Kado...
-I like everything natural.
Don't worry, I'll take care of him.
Are you leaving?
Bummer. I guess you're gonna miss it.
What?
Oh, nothing, I'm just gonna
do something you hate. Anyway...
You drink rak, right?
What should we drink?
Bravo!
Bravo!
I'm excited!
I'm black
Like charcoal on your spotless hands
I'm like a hurtful verse
Against your innocent words
Don't tell me to stay
Don't ask me that
Hush tonight
Don't you dare mention love to me
Stop tonight
Don't touch me and infatuate me
I don't want to get your hopes up
There's always something beckoning me
From cities that sit afar
Something that makes me remember you
In the bitter smiles I see
You stay who you are
Don't you change for me
I'll leave today, maybe tomorrow
When it's time to depart
You stay who you are
I'm just a guest here...
Just wave me goodbye
When it's time to depart
Was it awful?
So what's wrong?
I'll sing another one
if you don't tell me what's wrong.
KARAOKE NIGHI'm... just tired.
I'm going. I'm just waiting for the car.
But the cake is coming.
Have a bite, you might really like it.
I put a lot of effort into it.
It's not hard.
Smash the biscuits,
pour the pudding,
light a candle...
There you have a cake.
Was that your method?
Were they good?
They were edible.
And what did you put in them?
I don't know.
Strawberries?
Straw... They were too expensive then.
Or they were to us.
Make one for me one day?
Strawberries, too.
Does that sound good?
I'm sorry.
There's a lot to hate about me.
Your car is ready, sir.
-A friend inside will get it.
-Sure.
Why are you here?
Good evening.
I'm Kado.
-I want to...
-Okay.
...dedicate this song
to the cutest, the prettiest...
Today is Little Fulya's birthday!
Oh my God!
Nehir.
You're supposed to say something.
Enjoy your drink.
I'm fine.
I'm fine.
Is your friend reliable?
-Good, at least someone is.
-I'll get us another round!
Uh, maybe you should stay
with your friend.
Worried, are you?
Well, Saygn, pull yourself together.
Your balance is off.
-Nehir.
-Can we call a taxi?
But you can't even stand up straight.
Let me give you a ride.
I'm so sorry.
You'll feel better after some sleep.
I have a confession to make.
There's a lot to hate about me, as well.
Like what?
Like...
I like overcooked pasta, like real doughy.
Sometimes, when I'm depressed
I listen to Arabesque rap...
...but that stays between us.
All right.
It's your turn.
I don't... have a confession to make.
You said that...
that there's a lot to hate about you.
I was drunk.
Oh, I can't forget it.
-What?
-My notebook.
-Is it in your bag?
-Hmm.
Here you go.
Thank you.
Good night, then.
Wait, don't go.
Could you sleep here?
I won't try to do anything.
You'll be uncomfortable.
No I won't.
You can lie down.
Mmm.
IMAGINARY FIREWORKS
I'll go from there.
Whatcha doin'?
I really liked the double date thing.
-Did you take her home?
-I did.
-I'm not an animal like you.
-What does that mean?
You know she's sitting outside
in the rain, waiting for the bus to come?
Was your nap that urgent? Come here!
Let me take you home.
Oh, I'll wait for the bus, thanks.
How come you did that?
You shoulda said goodbye or something.
I didn't wanna wake you up.
You just wanted to get away.
And that's my jacket.
Like I stole it.
Yeah, I wanted to leave.
Because you scare me.
You ran away too, you know?
You blow hot and cold.
I'm not messing with that.
Maybe it was too much.
What was too much? You mean me?
Imaginary... Fireworks.
Did you read my notebook?
No.
I got questions. And tell the truth.
It's too wet.
Wait there.
Go on.
Are you married?
Uh, no.
You have a girlfriend?
No.
Fuck buddies are none of my business.
I thought you only wanted
to know about the things I hate.
I wanna know what you want from me.
Wanna see a movie?
Okay, but I'm choosing.
MY PROSTITUTE LOVE
You're kidding? It hasn't even started.
It's because of Trkan.
She's just amazing.
And this is my favorite.
So much sadness. Perfection.
-Trot.
-Giddy up!
Look at me. I'm a total mess.
If I can't do
without him, if I die without him...
It's like you're watching Spider-Man.
Where's your heart? Where are your tears?
Look, I've seen it.
-Ahh.
-Thirteen times.
And I'm your 14th victim,
so that's why you're so cold?
No way.
Well, in that case, I think that you
must have been forced to watch it.
Who forced you? Was it a girlfriend?
Oh, darling, don't say yes.
Watch.
Jeez, I'm worn out from all that crying.
-Go on, laugh.
-Well, you were worse last night.
The movie
on screen three is about to start.
Don't I get to laugh at you?
Hey, they might have the soundtrack.
What was your major?
Voice.
I thought as much.
So, you'll be famous soon.
Yeah, sure.
I might even be the first of my kind.
"The famous artist
with stage fright."
I'll do backup. That's my plan.
That'll be unfair
on the lead singer.
You don't talk much,
but you have a way with words.
Fuck your job, you asshole.
Where have you sent me?
Good girl, well done.
Lean back. Lean back.
Mmm. Well done.
Take it if you like. Thanks for the ride.
How can I contact you?
Give me your number.
There you go.
I'll call you. If I can't stop myself.
See you.
Mmm.
Well done. Well done.
Lean back.
Welcome.
I think there's been a misunderstanding.
I don't really know about this stuff.
Saygn said you'd be up for anything.
Of course he did.
Turn.
Don't be scared, it won't hurt.
Maybe the lady... doesn't wanna do this?
Do as I say.
Uh...
Surprise.
Come here.
Where were you?
Why weren't you answering my calls?
-Were you working out?
-Mm-hm.
What's wrong?
You're annoyed about something.
Come here.
She said it was her best birthday ever.
Oh, and she was glad that I made her go,
even though she really didn't wanna to.
She couldn't stop talking about it.
She told me the whole thing,
again and again.
She was transformed.
You shoulda seen how happy she was.
And she sang all day long.
That's wonderful.
I'm really excited.
Tell me what you'd like.
Go on, you can ask for anything.
I'm good.
What do you mean, you're good?
All you have to do is choose. Anything.
A... motorcycle. Or...
I can send you
on a vacation with your friend.
I know a lot of people,
I can make things happen.
Oh, but... you have to behave.
There's nothing that I want.
I have it all.
If you really wanna do something for me...
...let me rest.
Saygn?
Moving has tired me.
I should sleep.
No problem.
This is a thank you for your friend.
They ended up exchanging phone numbers.
Now tell him that's enough.
Of course.
Where've you been? I've been calling.
I would rather be
a fucking hitman than do that.
What's wrong?
You should've seen her face.
I feel disgusting.
You take pills?
How else could I have done it?
You really think I'm that numb?
Because I'm not as gentlemanly, right?
You don't have to do anything
you don't want.
If it happens again, just get out.
Oh, it's that easy?
Because this guy is willing to do
anything you ask him too, right?
I need to shower.
-What happened?
-Like you care.
Wait.
You did well last night.
Thank you.
But you won't see her again.
Don't answer her phone calls, it's done.
Why?
You're seeing the other one.
You even brought her home.
Oh, sure.
Saygn's in a whole other lane.
Kado is different.
You think I'm dirty, am I right?
Saygn, get lost, I'm taking a shower.
I'd never normally
leave you on your own.
Oh, come on.
You saw there was an opportunity to flirt,
so you left me.
Don't be stupid, he was obsessed with you.
Take advantage of it.
You're saying it's my only chance?
Just shut up!
And I'll say it again.
Your boobs didn't interest him.
I think he fell for you.
Let's not get... carried away.
And don't go getting all domestic.
No way. I'm cool... this time.
Have you told your mom yet?
I bet she was happy.
Has she told me?
She won't stop talking about it.
I keep telling her,
it doesn't matter if he ain't the one.
Enjoy these flirtations
while you're young.
Enjoy it and move on.
Why would I just move on, though?
Come on, darling, you'd been drinking.
You really think
you'll still like him sober?
Well, I'll see him sober and see.
Mm?
We're having dinner tomorrow.
Look at that.
-I gotta go, girls.
-Bye.
Can you help me pick out
what I should wear?
Of course I can. Don't worry. I got you.
Morning.
Morning.
I made breakfast.
Yeah. I saw.
-Saygn.
-Hm?
She genuinely likes me.
She said she'd never laughed like that.
I behaved like a true gentleman.
I never said you didn't, Kado.
Yeah.
Ah, shit, she's coming over?
No.
She's here more than you are.
I'll be in my room.
Doggy, come here.
Welcome. I wasn't expecting you.
What did I tell you?
He mustn't speak to her.
She's getting so...
Who else is here?
There's someone here.
Calm down, there's no one here.
Are you Kado?
I told Saygn,
but he must not have relayed the message.
Do not speak to my daughter anymore.
Sure.
Doggy, come on, boy.
You came to tell me that?
You didn't mind me
coming unannounced before.
What is it? What's changed between us?
We talked about it last night.
Now you listen real close,
because if you leave
my phone calls unanswered,
and you simply ignore my requests,
then I will punish you.
Do better! Be the Saygn that I can trust.
Fulya's her daughter? You shoulda said.
Screw her house and her damn car.
Screw her.
She's not someone I can screw.
She just beat you with money.
'Cause she's angry.
And Nehir?
Man, if you're playing them both,
then you're a real whore.
If I'm really being honest.
I got the message.
How do I get through to you, Saygn?
If you love her,
we'll find a way to get money.
Will we?
Oh, sure.
So then... yesterday,
why didn't you leave their place?
Wait, I'll tell you why.
Because you're numb?
Money, Kado.
You had to say "screw it" to yourself.
Isn't that right?
Come on, Doggy, let's go get some air.
Come on.
"We'll find money."
What a moron.
Hello?
Nehir.
The fire
was quickly extinguished
with the intervention
of the fire department.
-All residents have been evacuated.
-Nehir!
-No casualties were reported.
-Nehir!
Ne... Nehir!
I'm fine.
There's nothing to worry about.
Saygn, I'm fine.
I was dialing Fulya,
but she didn't answer,
and then I thought of you, sorry.
Okay, let's go.
Yeah, but I... I can't call them this late.
Well, we're going to mine.
To yours?
Do you trust me?
No.
Nehir, come on.
There's no way
I could get in the mood, can't you tell?
Away from the heights!
Away from the heights!
In the mood for pasta?
All right.
What do you want?
Spaghetti, penne, tagliatelle.
-I got real skill.
-I want bows.
Farfalle?
Mm, don't like 'em.
You clearly don't know pasta.
Ah, leave it to me,
I'll make you something nice.
You slept on the sofa again.
I did.
Why?
I like sleeping there.
Where will I sleep?
Anywhere you like. It's a big house.
Why did I ask?
Nehir, look.
I am not gonna take advantage of you.
We'll eat the pasta,
then you lie down wherever you want.
I must be really special to you.
The way that you held me,
it felt like you were
really worried about me.
Um, do you like chili paste?
I was wondering
when he'd show up, runaway Saygn.
Our home burnt down.
My mom was in.
Her name was Gnl.
Which is the same name
as that song, you know?
When we met.
Kado... tried to rescue her.
But he wasn't strong enough.
How could he be?
She insisted I went to school that day.
Normally, I wouldn't have listened.
But that day, I did.
I went in.
So stupid.
And then, I said, "Fuck it."
My mom can't get angry anymore.
And I never went back again.
You wanted a confession.
Here you go, junior high dropout.
So, can I sleep on the sofa?
Morning.
-W... What time is it?
-No.
What? What's wrong?
-Escaping, are you?
-I think we're past that stage.
I have a test today.
I'm late for school.
-Wish me luck.
-Good luck.
Nehir.
-Should I pick you up later?
-I promised I'd go with Fulya.
But I'll see you later.
I look forward to it.
-Hi.
-How are you doing?
Um, fine.
I wanted to meet up
and talk about something, are you free?
Uh... I... I'm busy.
Are you okay?
No.
I'm here all alone.
I can't tell anyone, and I'm scared.
What's going on, Serap? Where are you?
I'm so sorry I'm late.
There was a fire in my dorm.
-Go ahead.
-Thank you.
-Can I go again?
-Okay, from the top.
Sorry, Ful.
Nothing was ever abnormal before.
They saw it on a smear test,
told me yesterday.
They wanna take it out.
They say it might even
lead to cervical cancer.
Shh! Serap, don't think like that.
I'll take you to your room now.
Look at the situation I'm in.
I guess you're wondering
how we're still together.
Whatever he thinks,
I know that you're special.
But he's scared of you.
He can't handle it.
Hey.
You'll wait for me, won't you?
Of course.
The person you are calling is unavailable.
Leave a message after the tone.
When you finish recording,
hang up or press the hash key.
SAYGIN
CALLING...
The person you are calling
is unavailable. Leave a message...
I must look a total mess.
Not possible.
Here.
Oh, wasn't there something
you wanted to talk about?
Let's talk later.
There's no rush.
WHAT'S UP?
What now, Saygn?
Nehir, I'm outside your dorm.
Can you open up your window?
Oh.
I'm sorry!
I bought you strawberry cheesecake.
I can also make you the bows.
No because you eat it raw.
Oh, my beloved
Oh, my beloved
Oh, my beloved
How is life going in the gardens?
Are you soaring in the sky
With the colorful butterflies?
Are there rivers there?
Rivers that flow below us?
Oh, my beloved
I've been missing you
Oh, my beloved
I'm sorry.
You're not getting off that easy.
I was waiting in the cold for an hour.
And I'm soaking wet, Nehir.
Are we even?
Listen, I...
I had to go to the hospital.
-It's... personal.
-Are you gonna break my heart again?
No, are you?
I hope I will.
Have you sung that to anyone else?
I've never sung before.
I asked some other people,
but they didn't know it.
But I really wanna sing
"Imaginary Fireworks."
Don't look at my notebook ever again.
I inspired you, admit it.
I don't eat store-bought cakes.
You gotta make one yourself.
Only if you buy the strawberries.
So sorry.
The door was open, so I came in.
But I wasn't snooping around,
I was just... looking.
You don't trust me.
You think I should?
Nehir.
I've done it before.
If that's what you're worried about.
I'm so sorry.
Aren't you staying?
Is it me?
All I do is think about you, Nehir.
I tried.
I tried to stop.
I said to myself,
"Don't think about her, don't miss her,"
but I couldn't help it.
Yes, it's you.
Because you are all the things
I'm trying to stay away from.
You know I miss you?
Your...
I see your face every waking moment.
Sometimes I hear you whispering songs.
What's going on?
Well, maybe I'm not your first.
But you are mine.
It couldn't have been better.
The worst thing was she had no idea.
God, that must've been
so embarrassing.
Cheers.
Cheers...
I told you not to smoke inside.
Where were you?
Why, have you been worried about me?
It doesn't look like you give a shit.
-What's in the bag, Kado?
-Aspirin.
Don't lie to me! Kado!
I'm not lying, Saygn.
You've really pissed me off.
Seriously, man, leave me alone.
Where are you...
Does it matter where I go?
Here, Doggy.
Stop! You're being ridiculous!
Just fuck off. I don't have
the energy for this. Is that allowed?
What are you talking about?
Are you still upset
that he hasn't called?
I'm not Nehir,
it doesn't bother me.
But he's the one this time,
according to her.
Maybe she's right, maybe he is the one.
Yeah. She's really messing up.
For a guy she doesn't know.
Believe me, it's odd.
She hasn't been going to school,
keeps getting lost...
I'm worried they'll take her scholarship.
But, sure, I mean, I get it,
he bruised her ego, so...
Mmm, my darling baby.
You got out when you should have,
well done. Forget it.
They're as bad as each other.
Nehir is as bad as the other one.
Other one?
He's real close with Kado.
What?
Hm? They're good friends, you say?
Yeah, they even live together.
Hey, don't worry, Mom.
You did real good.
Maybe he'll come to his senses.
Why'd you tie your hair up?
It looks radiant when you wear it down.
I thought you quit.
You know what these are gonna do to you?
-You spend your money on this?
-Quiet, she's gonna hear!
You back on the coke as well?
Of course, you'll do anything
to enhance your performance.
Your dick must always be hard.
Look, Kado, if you wanna kill yourself,
fucking do it somewhere else,
but not in my house.
But it isn't your house, is it?
Come on. Come here.
Heel, boy.
What's your problem?
-Kadir?
-Huh?
-What else can I do?
-Really?
Don't do anything.
You opened your house to me, thanks.
You gave me money, your old clients...
Oh, but you made sure
to always rub it in my face.
But one day, when your baby face wrinkles,
these little pills
will be what you rely on.
-Know the difference between me and you?
-Go on, tell me.
This isn't my only source of income.
I also have this.
That's what got you
this house and car, right?
Let's see what she says.
-You won't do shit.
-It's you who won't do shit.
Mom told me not to let that thief inside.
Let's go, Doggy.
Let's get out of here.
Thanks.
Enjoy class.
Serap is here,
let me introduce you.
That's Nehir's guy.
Well, let's meet him.
Now's not the time.
But she's seen us,
it would be rude.
Whatever you say.
I've missed you.
Me too, darling.
I haven't seen you in a while.
Saygn, this is Serap.
-Good morning.
-Good morning.
-Pleasure to meet you.
-Likewise.
Your car is gorgeous.
Thank you.
-Don't let me hold you up.
-This won't do.
We need to talk properly.
You must come to my house,
we'll get to know each other.
We can sit down and talk later,
if you want.
Come on, we're running late.
See you later.
What do you think?
Well, I'm not sure yet.
-Okay, we're late, can we go?
-We'll talk later.
-Bye.
-All right, have a good day, girls.
-Right, you think?
-No way, 'cause it doesn't.
I got something to ask you.
Hm.
Why don't you like Saygn?
I don't know.
It's just a feeling.
What kind?
It feels like
he's hiding something, you know?
Something bad.
-Okay, guys, let's start.
-Good luck.
You're all done tuning?
Listen to each other. Don't rush. Ready?
One, two, three.
Nehir.
Are you upset with me?
I shouldn't have said that before.
What do I know about men?
You're right. Something's wrong.
Kado was around last night.
He said awful things to Saygn.
What kind of things?
That Saygn isn't paying for the house.
I guess the car isn't his either.
There might be someone else.
Come on, let's go.
Come on.
I'll empty the house tomorrow.
Thank you for everything, Serap.
And for your friendship.
Are you serious?
Please, do tell.
Is it a gang or something?
You swindle mother and daughter.
I didn't know, Serap.
I tried to stay away and be distant, but...
I failed.
Oh, so you think
you're in love with her, do you?
Oh, my, my.
Can I ask for one last thing?
Go ahead.
Please, don't tell her.
She can't handle it.
Sure.
And it's real easy for me.
'Cause I'm just so used to it.
She's real pretty, huh.
Gorgeous skin, and all that.
Youth is something else.
It's not about her youth.
Of course it isn't.
What is it, her depth of character?
I asked you to do one thing,
to not deceive me,
to not do the same as my husband does.
I was gonna tell you, but your illness...
Shut it!
You're all the same shit.
Who knows?
Maybe I got that virus from you.
I blamed him for no reason.
And you put her in my bed,
in the house I paid for.
I knew something was going on.
I knew when you became distant with me.
I told you to put an end to it.
Either finish this...
...or I'm gonna talk to her.
I know how this all started with us.
She has her life ahead of her.
She doesn't need a gigolo.
-Yes?
-Ms. Serap.
Oh, hi, Ms. idem.
Is it urgent? I'm very busy right now.
-I'm calling about the results.
-Oh, did they come back?
-Yes.
-Okay, I can talk.
The doctor would like you
to come to the office.
I don't understand.
-It's more appropriate that way.
-And why not on the phone?
Our protocols require you to be present.
He's not picking up, is he?
No, he's not.
If you can't stop yourself from jumping
on him, text me so I don't have to wait.
Are you all right?
I'm fine, give me a second.
Can I ask for one last thing?
For the last time.
Hold me.
My daughter complimented me
for the first time.
The thing I just can't handle is...
if you lose your hair,
you're still a man, aren't you.
It's gonna be okay.
You're a very strong woman, Serap.
Nehir!
Nehir, we didn't know! We didn't know!
You're the woman Kado was talking about!
I'm not sure what he said,
but our situation has ended.
Situation?
We were just saying goodbye as friends.
Do you mean a relationship?
No, that's not our situation!
-We...
-Say it, go on!
You can't? Let's ask him.
He said something about his income.
It's all yours, isn't it?
This house. Even his car.
Saygn.
I wondered
why you didn't find that movie sad.
It's 'cause you were shooting
the real thing here.
Well, thanks for not charging me!
Nehir! Nehir, stop.
Wait!
-Nehir!
-Don't follow me.
Your daughter is out there.
What happened?
-Let's go, please.
-Was someone there?
I'm gonna go in there and fuck him up.
Fulya, get in the damn car!
We can go.
It looks good on you.
Thank you. Where is he?
Don't know. It's just us.
-He doesn't know?
-No, but he will.
Would he be pissed?
Follow me, please.
Leave a message after the tone.
When you have finished, hang up.
It's over.
Everyone knows everything, Kado.
Yeah.
Do you know
what I hate the most in this life?
Apart from cigarettes.
It's me.
Myself.
Not because I get paid for sex.
I'm a total whore.
A whore.
Come home, man.
I really need you.
Come back
so we can get the fuck out of here!
We can move into our old house.
Enough!
Not the one that burned down.
Kado?
You home, man?
I'm sorry.
I just said it
in the... heat of the moment.
Like Mom would ever say that.
She liked you more than she liked me.
"Where's my Kado?
Bring him to me."
Hm.
"Now, Saygn, keep an eye on that boy."
"Yeah, right, Mom. He's older.
He should be looking after me."
"He's more emotional."
"Just doesn't show it."
"Okay, Mom."
Okay.
What is the matter with you?
Go. Fuck off and go eat. There.
Your back's exposed. You'll get cold.
What happened to your face?
Have you been fighting?
Kado? Kado?
Hey! Open your eyes.
Hey! Open your eyes!
Kado! Kado, get up! Kado!
Kado! Open your eyes, Kado!
Kado, wake up! Kado!
Kado!
Wake up! Wake up!
Wake up, Kado! Kado!
Pasta is ready!
MY PROSTITUTE LOVE
He loves it and shows off, man.
Let's keep it short.
-Okay, let's do it.
-Trot.
No! No!
Oh my God! Help her!
Mom! Mom! Mom!
-Mom!
-Man, I'm useless. I couldn't save her.
Mama!
Mom!
You know the first thing
I learned, doing this job?
3 YEARS LATER
Know when to cut your losses.
Once you know you're falling...
just get out of there.
Otherwise, you're screwed.
He's never fallen.
Well done.
Mr. Saygn,
can you come here for a second?
Just a moment.
I don't know. Let me talk to him.
Sir, look, sorry,
but we've just finished rehearsing,
we're really tired and hungry.
We just need a plate of regular pasta,
then we'll go.
We don't do "regular pasta," I'm afraid.
I wish I could help you,
but the kitchen is closed.
Saygn.
You know him?
Hello there.
Hello.
How are you?
Fine.
Yourself?
Yeah, good.
We... just finished.
We saw this place was open,
so we thought we'd give it a shot.
If I'd known it was yours...
You wouldn't have come?
No, I would have.
At least I'd know
that you don't serve bows.
I would.
Farfalle.
I'm...
Okay, let me see what I can do.
-Uh, there's dessert, do you want some?
-Sure.
We'll take it to go
so we don't bother you.
Uh, you, as well?
Oh, um, no thanks.
You sure? I got strawberry cake.
You really do?
Okay, then. I'll have a bite.
Elif, uh, could you get me
four tiramisus, to go.
And a strawberry cake.
Uh...
A band, huh?
They seem like good guys.
-I was, uh...
-Here...
You go.
It's wonderful in here.
-Honestly?
-Mm-hm.
We only just opened recently.
It's hard work.
Nehir, we're by the door.
Okay, then...
Uh...
-I'll pay for them.
-Don't be silly.
This one is on me.
Nehir, please.
This one's on me.
My first show.
-You've made it, huh?
-I've made a thing.
I knew it.
No covers, by the way. My compositions.
So you don't have to worry.
Thanks so much.
I'll take that.
So, it'd be nice to see you there.
Well, you and...
whoever.
See you there.
See you there.
26 MAY 2026 - NEHR NAL
"IMAGINARY FIREWORKS" DEBUT SHOW
A TRUE GENTLEMAN
An imaginary firework flying above us
Broken hearts in our chests
My face is as bright as a Saturday
But I feel like a Monday
Thanks to you
A broken heart
Colorful skies
So somber
So like me
The movie is black and white
How about we cry for a while?
A long lost love
Sounded just like me
Drowning in sorrow
Drowning in sorrow was the heart
Drowning in sorrow
Drowning in sorrow was the heart
Drowning
Drowning
An imaginary firework flying above us
Broken hearts
In our chests
My face is bright as a Saturday
But I feel like a Monday
Thanks to you
I'm a bad dog
Scratching at your door
Just a bad dog
I keep 'em coming back for more
It's about being a true gentleman,
not about money.
But if I don't get it, things go bad.
They get their hearts broken.
It's the only option.
Being everything to someone...
For the bad dog
...but then also nothing.
Have you ever healed a woman,
kissing her where it hurts the most?
Forgive me.
Sometimes I'm an ex-boyfriend
who disappeared.
Sometimes, the most fun she's ever had.
Sometimes, a dangerous stranger.
I become whoever they want me to be.
But at the end of the day,
they all need the same thing,
to not feel ashamed...
...of the dark...
or the light.
Someone might come.
I want you to come.
A TRUE GENTLEMAN
How dare you speak to me like that!
Don't take it that way.
I was being honest.
Don't yell.
You're disturbing clients.
If they're clients, what am I?
Am I not a client? Ma'am, what did I do?
What didn't you do? Asshole.
Oh my God.
-I would admit if I'd done something.
-Kadir. Come here.
Uh-huh.
Ma'am, I'm sorry.
Do excuse him.
Now, can you tell me what's the problem?
He came up to me
and started making innuendos.
Pressing me to take his card.
I was very direct.
No innuendos.
If you felt the electricity,
you can call me anytime.
Nobody's gonna judge you for it.
Kadir, please apologize to her.
I'm sorry.
No, I don't want his apology.
He's just gonna do it again.
You can eye me up
but I can't? That's bull.
Can you send security to reception?
Security doesn't scare me, you asshole.
-Gentlemen, there's a lady.
-Wait and see!
This happens if you let anyone in!
-Keep it closed, like this.
-I'm on it.
Let me apologize on his behalf.
Come over here.
Let me explain.
I'm certain you'd understand.
I can tell that you're a, uh...
an intelligent, mature woman.
What's going on?
His fiance has just left him.
And I wanna keep an eye on him.
The gym was my idea.
But he isn't well.
This anger erupts from him
when he sees a beautiful woman.
-Hakan, take him.
-Hold it! Wait.
You said that he's your friend?
Hmm. He is.
I'm sorry this is how I met you.
Call me Saygn.
They approach, not you.
That's just always been the rule.
-Remember?
-Uh-huh.
So they're ladies if they do it,
but we're cavemen?
What is it, Kado? Hmm?
Just work out in peace and then go.
Fuck off.
You have it all. Your calendar's full.
It's not like the old times, is it.
No work anymore.
And I'm trying to bulk up, but come on.
You asshole.
-Kado.
-Yeah?
After your shower, we're buying a tux.
Huh?
A tux, you say?
-Ahh.
-Mm. Hurry up.
Happy New Year, everybody!
I feel him comin' girls
We ain't seen him yet
I feel him comin' girls
Mm.
Wipe your mouth. She's coming.
Ms. Emel.
She's in fashion, owns her own boutique.
She likes the classics.
So just missionary. I got her.
-Ms. Emel.
-Shh.
Too quiet.
-The red dress.
-The red dress.
-Aylin.
-Aylin.
She just got divorced.
Broken-hearted.
Into plastic surgery.
-They did a bad job.
-Hm?
Hmm. Look, her fucking nose is melted.
So rude!
That's why it doesn't work.
That's why they never call a second time.
That's bullshit.
Who else treats them like I do, Saygn?
They're not just some horny dogs.
They have other needs, as well.
What kinda needs?
Tell me, please, so I can learn.
You gotta make 'em feel
how special they are, okay?
As far as I can see,
no one here is doing that.
So, that's where we come in, Kado.
They feel it
every time I come in, don't worry.
You know, like real special.
I see this isn't gonna work. Let's go.
Hey. Stop.
Hey, I'm just a little intimidated
'cause they're too fancy.
-Just be kind.
-Okay.
-Come.
-Okay.
Pick one.
Hmm. Oya, orange purse.
Resume?
She was once married
to a very rich Frenchman,
and now she's enjoying the alimony.
"How much money did you get?"
Sounds good?
-Go with sports.
-Sports.
-She runs every morning.
-Every morning.
Her beauty was too much,
and you simply had to meet her.
The student has truly become the master.
Don't do that, Kado!
It's fine, Saygn.
Go on.
I'll come in like you told me to.
All right, then.
Psst!
Be a true gentleman, Kado.
I got this.
Good evening, Ms. Oya.
Will you be as stunning
this year as the last?
-You're so sweet, Mr. Arif.
-You're sweet too.
Who's your husband dancing with, Serap?
All the tears that
Cheers.
All the tears that we cry
Just this tomorrow.
Of course.
Thank you.
He will feel your
He will feel your presence...
Thank you so much!
-Are you good?
-You just saved my life.
Oh, it's broken.
Here, let me take that.
Hold on.
They're too big, but they were
a New Year's gift so I couldn't say.
You go ahead. Sorry.
It'll be hard to walk. I can help.
-Don't worry, I can manage.
-Okay.
Enjoy!
You too.
When your body
When your body
When your body says goodbye
Thank you very much!
We'll be back after a short break.
Why'd you stop?
I forgot the rest.
You've solved it.
Kinda.
I think I know this one but...
Would you?
Let's just give it a go, shall we?
Oh, my beloved
How is life going in the gardens?
Are you soaring in the sky
With the colorful butterflies?
Are there rivers there?
Rivers that flow below us?
Oh, my beloved
I've been missing you
Oh, my beloved
Something like that, right?
Thank you.
Not many people know that.
I guess we're lucky, then.
Excuse me.
You don't like them, do you?
Just because people wanna celebrate,
all those cute, little birds die.
They're barbaric, and you like 'em.
I used to. Back then.
I'll leave you alone
with the fireworks, then.
We'd say, "Someone's happy
so they're celebrating." It felt good.
"Someone's won the national lottery."
"They can afford treatment now."
"Someone's found their first love.
They're 86."
Dreams that we'd invent.
These dreams are so nice, I guess
you can't hate fireworks anymore.
Thank you.
So, is there anything
everyone else loves, but you hate?
Cigarettes.
Overcooked pasta.
Oh, and snacks, 'cause they leave trash.
Yeah, you can't hate snacks, I'm afraid.
It's gotta be
a little more serious than that.
Covers of really good songs,
I really hate that.
Oh, yeah?
It's never as good.
But you've just...
Me?
You weren't bad.
Gee, thanks, I guess.
I mean,
I may have butchered the song, but...
I won't perform, anyway.
I'll say my heel broke.
It was an accident, you saw.
I did, yeah.
Well, the first one, anyway.
You said something about you performing.
It was her idea.
She said people would film me
and I'd be a hit on social media.
Like anyone actually cares.
I don't know about the rest,
but I'd love to listen to you.
Excuse me.
Yes?
-Go to the room, I'm coming.
-Okay.
I'm sorry, but I have to go
meet my friend. Are you staying?
I was going to see my friend, too.
That was actually hers.
-Uh...
-Uh, here.
-Oh, no, you enjoy it.
-I didn't drink out of it.
Bye.
Let's meet in half an hour.
She's all alone up there.
Um...
No problem.
I'll see you in half an hour, then.
Bye.
See you soon.
-What are you doing?
-I wanna give you your gift.
You've been drinking.
Haven't you been? Here.
Come here.
Come on, kiss me.
What's wrong?
Tell me what's wrong.
Your husband is here.
My husband?
My husband is busy.
He's dancing.
Happy New Year.
You can exchange it if you don't like it.
Tell me what happened.
It's the same as always.
He says he has back pain in bed,
but when he sees a girl, he can dance.
I have the urge to go slap him
in front of everyone, humiliate him!
Wouldn't divorce be the better option?
Mm-mm. Fulya can't handle it.
Fulya or...?
Can I ask you to do something for me?
Don't see them anymore.
I'll take care of you.
What happened?
I was walking to the stage,
but my heel broke.
I can't go on like this,
I'd be humiliated.
You know she'll be mad. She set it all up.
I didn't do it on purpose.
Help me think of a reason.
You can't say no to her,
so you just run away.
Be like me and say you won't do it.
Oh, like it's so simple, right?
For god's sake.
Well, it's fine by me.
These lenses are stuck to my eyes.
Can we go if you're not performing?
I'm only here for you.
No, let's stay, we'll have fun.
What could be fun here?
Please stay longer.
You know, a man like you deserves
a better life than this, don't you?
Is it worth doing just for the money?
Believe me, you won't be needing
the pocket money that they pay.
It's not like that.
What is it like?
Do you do it for free?
For god's sake, who would want this?
Is this the life you think suits you?
I don't know
how you have the stomach for it.
I'm gonna order you some coffee.
And we'll forget about this conversation.
I'm sorry. Saygn. Saygn, please.
Please, I'm sorry.
Look, don't go.
Why is it so hard?
Why is it so hard to commit to a woman?
Maybe it's just hard to commit to me.
Tell me the truth.
Do you think I'm dull?
Or am I too old?
What? It doesn't matter, you can say.
Shh.
You
are perfect.
You're gorgeous.
I should let him know.
It's rude to just leave.
You're easily impressed, aren't you.
-But he knows Flrt.
-Good for him.
Not that many people know them.
And he didn't mind my blabbering.
Of course you were blabbering.
Okay, I'll be back.
I want everything
in your life to be great.
You can live in any house you want,
and you can drive any car.
I won't meddle, I promise.
I just don't want you to see anyone.
Oh, and you can't return a gift.
It's very rude.
Ah!
Yeah!
Ooh!
Feels good.
It's the time to show you
What's in my stall
Just friends ain't gonna do me at all
The time to turn the heat up is now
Can't you see
That I don't want you to go?
That I wanna be the star of your show
So turn the lights down
The music real low
The time to turn the heat up is now
What's in your heart?
Can it be true
Is this the start
Of me
A me and you?
Hey! Is your dick now solid gold?
You shoulda called,
Serap will be here in a minute.
Housewarming gift.
Kado.
Whoa. What kinda house is this?
-It's unbelievable.
-Kado, don't start.
And?
Kado's room is...?
-I'm kidding.
-There.
Bullshit.
Mm-hmm. Look.
Am I gonna live here too?
-Doggy?
-Of course.
On the condition you leave
when Serap is here.
-You're not gonna cry, are you?
-Yeah, right.
I'm having an orgasm
out of pride, you motherfucker.
Look, you can't just sit around, man!
Make your dreams come true.
Come take a photo of me.
-For my profile.
-Oh, Kado.
Come on, Saygn, look at this place.
Give it here.
Here you go.
Turn. Turn around.
Look at me.
I'm gonna ask you something.
Tell the truth.
-What?
-Have you paid off your debt?
The day you gave me the money
I went and paid the... the money.
Don't worry about me.
I'm not sitting around anymore.
I'm working later.
You're not mixing
with the wrong people, are you?
She likes Italian pizza, you know.
And I said, "I'll feed you, signora."
Is that the wife?
What did I tell you, man?
-Making me take your photo in...
-Okay, man!
Welcome.
Got mulled wine? I'm a bit cold...
-Um, the pizza guy is leaving.
-Hi.
He brought the wrong order.
I didn't ask for sujuk.
-You didn't order sujuk?
-I didn't.
I'll let the restaurant know,
so they can do a proper job.
Please do. Please do.
-Have a good day.
-Have a good night.
And he wanted to use the bathroom.
-Do you think he recognized me?
-I don't think so.
But he won't forget.
Yeah?
Hell, yeah.
I'm gonna wanna see your eyes this time.
All right.
You're tense. Is something wrong?
Mmm. It's Fulya's birthday tomorrow.
How nice. Your daughter.
Apparently, there's nothing to celebrate.
She hates everything anyway, so...
She only likes music.
-Doesn't she have any friends?
-She does.
She does,
but her best friend is too beautiful.
I think she makes her feel insecure.
I wish she knew how beautiful she is.
-But she doesn't think that, huh?
-Mm.
She doesn't like herself.
If someone else liked her,
would it change her mind?
Someone else?
Ah, here's my pizza man.
Someone like a friend I trust.
He's a very clean, proper guy.
He's dignified.
He's as good as gold.
Kind.
You should see him.
A true gentleman.
We could make them run into each other.
Imagine our guy enters,
she catches his eye,
so they talk.
Maybe her confidence increases.
She'll feel attractive, as well.
Yeah?
And you really trust this person?
Would I tell you otherwise, Serap?
Mm-hm.
Will you be there as well?
If you want me to be.
Thank you very much.
This song is for Aye.
She'll be here soon.
-Thank you.
-Let's go, then.
-What the fuck is this, it tastes like...
-Shh.
-We agreed.
-Okay, no swearing.
Look, it's a high-end job.
But she's sensitive.
-You've gotta be subtle.
-I'll act like I'm serious about it.
Act like she's someone special.
Don't worry about a thing.
She's here. Upstairs. Black dress.
Come on,
she'll chase me away with a broom, man.
Just don't be an asshole.
Kado, buy her a drink.
-Are you sure?
-Just get her a cocktail, will you?
Sex on the Beach.
Jeez, Kado.
-I'll get on up there, then.
-Yes, go.
Psst.
-Be a true gentleman.
-I got this.
Sorry, excuse me.
-All good? Did you understand?
-Yeah, we're good.
And do you definitely
have the right table number?
We do.
And the karaoke is ready?
Yes, miss.
Acoustic version, that's very important.
Right, yeah. You know what? Good luck.
Just so you know, we're upstairs, okay?
This is a pleasure.
Saygn.
I like fireworks.
Ah! Yeah, I remember. Firework Saygn.
Mm.
You are mad. Fair enough.
'Cause you stood me up? No.
They played really good covers,
and I danced till the morning,
but you wouldn't have liked it.
Is that so?
Sure sounds good.
Well, see ya.
Excuse me.
I know I messed up.
But I had an urgent thing.
Too urgent to say anything?
I really couldn't.
Uh huh, you couldn't spare two seconds?
I would've wanted more.
-Well, I've gotta go.
-What's your name?
Nehir.
The girl who hates fireworks.
Nehir.
-Where've you been, Nehir?
-I'm here now.
-You were talking to someone.
-Just an acquaintance, that's all.
You made me dress up like a nymphomaniac.
I assume he's thinking that.
-Who?
-Him.
He's been eyeing me up for two hours.
Maybe he likes you.
It's my chest he's looking at.
There are plenty of racks around here.
He's looking at your face.
I never said that!
DON'T WORRY, EVERYTHING'S OKAY.
Evening, ladies.
Excuse me, but something caught my eye.
Yeah, I saw.
-No, I meant your smile is beautiful.
-Oh, God!
You... You like my smile?
I do.
Sorry.
Yes?
-Job's off.
-What?
-The job's off.
-Huh? I can't hear you, man.
The job is off. Abort.
What? Where are you?
At the bar, behind you.
Sorry, ladies.
I'll be back in about a minute.
"Ladies"? No.
I think it's cute.
-What happened? It was going so well.
-We're not needed anymore.
-Two double whiskeys.
-Leave the whiskey, we're leaving.
-Okay. Bring the whiskey!
-No whiskey. Kado.
Please, don't get wasted again, just...
-Let's go dance.
-What?
I'm the one who gave you this job,
and I'm saying that it's off.
-But I got this! Just relax, chill out!
-Okay? Kado.
We're here for you, to celebrate.
-Just drop it, I don't wanna.
-Come on!
-Or I'm gonna make both of us regret it.
-You're bluffing.
I'll go tell him
that my friend
is gonna show him her smile.
-I'm gonna fuck you up.
-You won't.
-Nehir! Don't! Get a hold of yourself!
-I'll get us a drink.
-Keep your mouth shut. Zip it.
-Come on! Just don't...
-Two tequila shots.
-Sure.
She doesn't even like you.
-You've tried all you can...
-Is that what she said?
She didn't say it, I just know.
Oh, well, if she didn't say that, man...
Then let's go talk to 'em.
-Hi.
-Kado.
Sorry to bother you again. I needed
to make sure. Is it a crime or...?
Sorry, what?
I wanna know if us liking you
is a crime or not.
You treat me like I'm a pervert,
okay, fine, I get it.
But if you're gonna treat him
like a pervert, as well,
we're really gonna have
a problem, Miss Curly.
He's had a bit
too much to drink. I'm sorry.
This man's golden.
What on Earth makes you think
that this man could be a pervert?
No one's calling him a pervert.
But I'm afraid that you are full of shit.
What do you mean?
You said that you thought
her smile was pretty.
Let's go, Kado.
There's this thing called imagination.
-But I will make sure she smiles later on.
-We'll see.
-Let go!
-Please, don't...
-Kado...
-I like everything natural.
Don't worry, I'll take care of him.
Are you leaving?
Bummer. I guess you're gonna miss it.
What?
Oh, nothing, I'm just gonna
do something you hate. Anyway...
You drink rak, right?
What should we drink?
Bravo!
Bravo!
I'm excited!
I'm black
Like charcoal on your spotless hands
I'm like a hurtful verse
Against your innocent words
Don't tell me to stay
Don't ask me that
Hush tonight
Don't you dare mention love to me
Stop tonight
Don't touch me and infatuate me
I don't want to get your hopes up
There's always something beckoning me
From cities that sit afar
Something that makes me remember you
In the bitter smiles I see
You stay who you are
Don't you change for me
I'll leave today, maybe tomorrow
When it's time to depart
You stay who you are
I'm just a guest here...
Just wave me goodbye
When it's time to depart
Was it awful?
So what's wrong?
I'll sing another one
if you don't tell me what's wrong.
KARAOKE NIGHI'm... just tired.
I'm going. I'm just waiting for the car.
But the cake is coming.
Have a bite, you might really like it.
I put a lot of effort into it.
It's not hard.
Smash the biscuits,
pour the pudding,
light a candle...
There you have a cake.
Was that your method?
Were they good?
They were edible.
And what did you put in them?
I don't know.
Strawberries?
Straw... They were too expensive then.
Or they were to us.
Make one for me one day?
Strawberries, too.
Does that sound good?
I'm sorry.
There's a lot to hate about me.
Your car is ready, sir.
-A friend inside will get it.
-Sure.
Why are you here?
Good evening.
I'm Kado.
-I want to...
-Okay.
...dedicate this song
to the cutest, the prettiest...
Today is Little Fulya's birthday!
Oh my God!
Nehir.
You're supposed to say something.
Enjoy your drink.
I'm fine.
I'm fine.
Is your friend reliable?
-Good, at least someone is.
-I'll get us another round!
Uh, maybe you should stay
with your friend.
Worried, are you?
Well, Saygn, pull yourself together.
Your balance is off.
-Nehir.
-Can we call a taxi?
But you can't even stand up straight.
Let me give you a ride.
I'm so sorry.
You'll feel better after some sleep.
I have a confession to make.
There's a lot to hate about me, as well.
Like what?
Like...
I like overcooked pasta, like real doughy.
Sometimes, when I'm depressed
I listen to Arabesque rap...
...but that stays between us.
All right.
It's your turn.
I don't... have a confession to make.
You said that...
that there's a lot to hate about you.
I was drunk.
Oh, I can't forget it.
-What?
-My notebook.
-Is it in your bag?
-Hmm.
Here you go.
Thank you.
Good night, then.
Wait, don't go.
Could you sleep here?
I won't try to do anything.
You'll be uncomfortable.
No I won't.
You can lie down.
Mmm.
IMAGINARY FIREWORKS
I'll go from there.
Whatcha doin'?
I really liked the double date thing.
-Did you take her home?
-I did.
-I'm not an animal like you.
-What does that mean?
You know she's sitting outside
in the rain, waiting for the bus to come?
Was your nap that urgent? Come here!
Let me take you home.
Oh, I'll wait for the bus, thanks.
How come you did that?
You shoulda said goodbye or something.
I didn't wanna wake you up.
You just wanted to get away.
And that's my jacket.
Like I stole it.
Yeah, I wanted to leave.
Because you scare me.
You ran away too, you know?
You blow hot and cold.
I'm not messing with that.
Maybe it was too much.
What was too much? You mean me?
Imaginary... Fireworks.
Did you read my notebook?
No.
I got questions. And tell the truth.
It's too wet.
Wait there.
Go on.
Are you married?
Uh, no.
You have a girlfriend?
No.
Fuck buddies are none of my business.
I thought you only wanted
to know about the things I hate.
I wanna know what you want from me.
Wanna see a movie?
Okay, but I'm choosing.
MY PROSTITUTE LOVE
You're kidding? It hasn't even started.
It's because of Trkan.
She's just amazing.
And this is my favorite.
So much sadness. Perfection.
-Trot.
-Giddy up!
Look at me. I'm a total mess.
If I can't do
without him, if I die without him...
It's like you're watching Spider-Man.
Where's your heart? Where are your tears?
Look, I've seen it.
-Ahh.
-Thirteen times.
And I'm your 14th victim,
so that's why you're so cold?
No way.
Well, in that case, I think that you
must have been forced to watch it.
Who forced you? Was it a girlfriend?
Oh, darling, don't say yes.
Watch.
Jeez, I'm worn out from all that crying.
-Go on, laugh.
-Well, you were worse last night.
The movie
on screen three is about to start.
Don't I get to laugh at you?
Hey, they might have the soundtrack.
What was your major?
Voice.
I thought as much.
So, you'll be famous soon.
Yeah, sure.
I might even be the first of my kind.
"The famous artist
with stage fright."
I'll do backup. That's my plan.
That'll be unfair
on the lead singer.
You don't talk much,
but you have a way with words.
Fuck your job, you asshole.
Where have you sent me?
Good girl, well done.
Lean back. Lean back.
Mmm. Well done.
Take it if you like. Thanks for the ride.
How can I contact you?
Give me your number.
There you go.
I'll call you. If I can't stop myself.
See you.
Mmm.
Well done. Well done.
Lean back.
Welcome.
I think there's been a misunderstanding.
I don't really know about this stuff.
Saygn said you'd be up for anything.
Of course he did.
Turn.
Don't be scared, it won't hurt.
Maybe the lady... doesn't wanna do this?
Do as I say.
Uh...
Surprise.
Come here.
Where were you?
Why weren't you answering my calls?
-Were you working out?
-Mm-hm.
What's wrong?
You're annoyed about something.
Come here.
She said it was her best birthday ever.
Oh, and she was glad that I made her go,
even though she really didn't wanna to.
She couldn't stop talking about it.
She told me the whole thing,
again and again.
She was transformed.
You shoulda seen how happy she was.
And she sang all day long.
That's wonderful.
I'm really excited.
Tell me what you'd like.
Go on, you can ask for anything.
I'm good.
What do you mean, you're good?
All you have to do is choose. Anything.
A... motorcycle. Or...
I can send you
on a vacation with your friend.
I know a lot of people,
I can make things happen.
Oh, but... you have to behave.
There's nothing that I want.
I have it all.
If you really wanna do something for me...
...let me rest.
Saygn?
Moving has tired me.
I should sleep.
No problem.
This is a thank you for your friend.
They ended up exchanging phone numbers.
Now tell him that's enough.
Of course.
Where've you been? I've been calling.
I would rather be
a fucking hitman than do that.
What's wrong?
You should've seen her face.
I feel disgusting.
You take pills?
How else could I have done it?
You really think I'm that numb?
Because I'm not as gentlemanly, right?
You don't have to do anything
you don't want.
If it happens again, just get out.
Oh, it's that easy?
Because this guy is willing to do
anything you ask him too, right?
I need to shower.
-What happened?
-Like you care.
Wait.
You did well last night.
Thank you.
But you won't see her again.
Don't answer her phone calls, it's done.
Why?
You're seeing the other one.
You even brought her home.
Oh, sure.
Saygn's in a whole other lane.
Kado is different.
You think I'm dirty, am I right?
Saygn, get lost, I'm taking a shower.
I'd never normally
leave you on your own.
Oh, come on.
You saw there was an opportunity to flirt,
so you left me.
Don't be stupid, he was obsessed with you.
Take advantage of it.
You're saying it's my only chance?
Just shut up!
And I'll say it again.
Your boobs didn't interest him.
I think he fell for you.
Let's not get... carried away.
And don't go getting all domestic.
No way. I'm cool... this time.
Have you told your mom yet?
I bet she was happy.
Has she told me?
She won't stop talking about it.
I keep telling her,
it doesn't matter if he ain't the one.
Enjoy these flirtations
while you're young.
Enjoy it and move on.
Why would I just move on, though?
Come on, darling, you'd been drinking.
You really think
you'll still like him sober?
Well, I'll see him sober and see.
Mm?
We're having dinner tomorrow.
Look at that.
-I gotta go, girls.
-Bye.
Can you help me pick out
what I should wear?
Of course I can. Don't worry. I got you.
Morning.
Morning.
I made breakfast.
Yeah. I saw.
-Saygn.
-Hm?
She genuinely likes me.
She said she'd never laughed like that.
I behaved like a true gentleman.
I never said you didn't, Kado.
Yeah.
Ah, shit, she's coming over?
No.
She's here more than you are.
I'll be in my room.
Doggy, come here.
Welcome. I wasn't expecting you.
What did I tell you?
He mustn't speak to her.
She's getting so...
Who else is here?
There's someone here.
Calm down, there's no one here.
Are you Kado?
I told Saygn,
but he must not have relayed the message.
Do not speak to my daughter anymore.
Sure.
Doggy, come on, boy.
You came to tell me that?
You didn't mind me
coming unannounced before.
What is it? What's changed between us?
We talked about it last night.
Now you listen real close,
because if you leave
my phone calls unanswered,
and you simply ignore my requests,
then I will punish you.
Do better! Be the Saygn that I can trust.
Fulya's her daughter? You shoulda said.
Screw her house and her damn car.
Screw her.
She's not someone I can screw.
She just beat you with money.
'Cause she's angry.
And Nehir?
Man, if you're playing them both,
then you're a real whore.
If I'm really being honest.
I got the message.
How do I get through to you, Saygn?
If you love her,
we'll find a way to get money.
Will we?
Oh, sure.
So then... yesterday,
why didn't you leave their place?
Wait, I'll tell you why.
Because you're numb?
Money, Kado.
You had to say "screw it" to yourself.
Isn't that right?
Come on, Doggy, let's go get some air.
Come on.
"We'll find money."
What a moron.
Hello?
Nehir.
The fire
was quickly extinguished
with the intervention
of the fire department.
-All residents have been evacuated.
-Nehir!
-No casualties were reported.
-Nehir!
Ne... Nehir!
I'm fine.
There's nothing to worry about.
Saygn, I'm fine.
I was dialing Fulya,
but she didn't answer,
and then I thought of you, sorry.
Okay, let's go.
Yeah, but I... I can't call them this late.
Well, we're going to mine.
To yours?
Do you trust me?
No.
Nehir, come on.
There's no way
I could get in the mood, can't you tell?
Away from the heights!
Away from the heights!
In the mood for pasta?
All right.
What do you want?
Spaghetti, penne, tagliatelle.
-I got real skill.
-I want bows.
Farfalle?
Mm, don't like 'em.
You clearly don't know pasta.
Ah, leave it to me,
I'll make you something nice.
You slept on the sofa again.
I did.
Why?
I like sleeping there.
Where will I sleep?
Anywhere you like. It's a big house.
Why did I ask?
Nehir, look.
I am not gonna take advantage of you.
We'll eat the pasta,
then you lie down wherever you want.
I must be really special to you.
The way that you held me,
it felt like you were
really worried about me.
Um, do you like chili paste?
I was wondering
when he'd show up, runaway Saygn.
Our home burnt down.
My mom was in.
Her name was Gnl.
Which is the same name
as that song, you know?
When we met.
Kado... tried to rescue her.
But he wasn't strong enough.
How could he be?
She insisted I went to school that day.
Normally, I wouldn't have listened.
But that day, I did.
I went in.
So stupid.
And then, I said, "Fuck it."
My mom can't get angry anymore.
And I never went back again.
You wanted a confession.
Here you go, junior high dropout.
So, can I sleep on the sofa?
Morning.
-W... What time is it?
-No.
What? What's wrong?
-Escaping, are you?
-I think we're past that stage.
I have a test today.
I'm late for school.
-Wish me luck.
-Good luck.
Nehir.
-Should I pick you up later?
-I promised I'd go with Fulya.
But I'll see you later.
I look forward to it.
-Hi.
-How are you doing?
Um, fine.
I wanted to meet up
and talk about something, are you free?
Uh... I... I'm busy.
Are you okay?
No.
I'm here all alone.
I can't tell anyone, and I'm scared.
What's going on, Serap? Where are you?
I'm so sorry I'm late.
There was a fire in my dorm.
-Go ahead.
-Thank you.
-Can I go again?
-Okay, from the top.
Sorry, Ful.
Nothing was ever abnormal before.
They saw it on a smear test,
told me yesterday.
They wanna take it out.
They say it might even
lead to cervical cancer.
Shh! Serap, don't think like that.
I'll take you to your room now.
Look at the situation I'm in.
I guess you're wondering
how we're still together.
Whatever he thinks,
I know that you're special.
But he's scared of you.
He can't handle it.
Hey.
You'll wait for me, won't you?
Of course.
The person you are calling is unavailable.
Leave a message after the tone.
When you finish recording,
hang up or press the hash key.
SAYGIN
CALLING...
The person you are calling
is unavailable. Leave a message...
I must look a total mess.
Not possible.
Here.
Oh, wasn't there something
you wanted to talk about?
Let's talk later.
There's no rush.
WHAT'S UP?
What now, Saygn?
Nehir, I'm outside your dorm.
Can you open up your window?
Oh.
I'm sorry!
I bought you strawberry cheesecake.
I can also make you the bows.
No because you eat it raw.
Oh, my beloved
Oh, my beloved
Oh, my beloved
How is life going in the gardens?
Are you soaring in the sky
With the colorful butterflies?
Are there rivers there?
Rivers that flow below us?
Oh, my beloved
I've been missing you
Oh, my beloved
I'm sorry.
You're not getting off that easy.
I was waiting in the cold for an hour.
And I'm soaking wet, Nehir.
Are we even?
Listen, I...
I had to go to the hospital.
-It's... personal.
-Are you gonna break my heart again?
No, are you?
I hope I will.
Have you sung that to anyone else?
I've never sung before.
I asked some other people,
but they didn't know it.
But I really wanna sing
"Imaginary Fireworks."
Don't look at my notebook ever again.
I inspired you, admit it.
I don't eat store-bought cakes.
You gotta make one yourself.
Only if you buy the strawberries.
So sorry.
The door was open, so I came in.
But I wasn't snooping around,
I was just... looking.
You don't trust me.
You think I should?
Nehir.
I've done it before.
If that's what you're worried about.
I'm so sorry.
Aren't you staying?
Is it me?
All I do is think about you, Nehir.
I tried.
I tried to stop.
I said to myself,
"Don't think about her, don't miss her,"
but I couldn't help it.
Yes, it's you.
Because you are all the things
I'm trying to stay away from.
You know I miss you?
Your...
I see your face every waking moment.
Sometimes I hear you whispering songs.
What's going on?
Well, maybe I'm not your first.
But you are mine.
It couldn't have been better.
The worst thing was she had no idea.
God, that must've been
so embarrassing.
Cheers.
Cheers...
I told you not to smoke inside.
Where were you?
Why, have you been worried about me?
It doesn't look like you give a shit.
-What's in the bag, Kado?
-Aspirin.
Don't lie to me! Kado!
I'm not lying, Saygn.
You've really pissed me off.
Seriously, man, leave me alone.
Where are you...
Does it matter where I go?
Here, Doggy.
Stop! You're being ridiculous!
Just fuck off. I don't have
the energy for this. Is that allowed?
What are you talking about?
Are you still upset
that he hasn't called?
I'm not Nehir,
it doesn't bother me.
But he's the one this time,
according to her.
Maybe she's right, maybe he is the one.
Yeah. She's really messing up.
For a guy she doesn't know.
Believe me, it's odd.
She hasn't been going to school,
keeps getting lost...
I'm worried they'll take her scholarship.
But, sure, I mean, I get it,
he bruised her ego, so...
Mmm, my darling baby.
You got out when you should have,
well done. Forget it.
They're as bad as each other.
Nehir is as bad as the other one.
Other one?
He's real close with Kado.
What?
Hm? They're good friends, you say?
Yeah, they even live together.
Hey, don't worry, Mom.
You did real good.
Maybe he'll come to his senses.
Why'd you tie your hair up?
It looks radiant when you wear it down.
I thought you quit.
You know what these are gonna do to you?
-You spend your money on this?
-Quiet, she's gonna hear!
You back on the coke as well?
Of course, you'll do anything
to enhance your performance.
Your dick must always be hard.
Look, Kado, if you wanna kill yourself,
fucking do it somewhere else,
but not in my house.
But it isn't your house, is it?
Come on. Come here.
Heel, boy.
What's your problem?
-Kadir?
-Huh?
-What else can I do?
-Really?
Don't do anything.
You opened your house to me, thanks.
You gave me money, your old clients...
Oh, but you made sure
to always rub it in my face.
But one day, when your baby face wrinkles,
these little pills
will be what you rely on.
-Know the difference between me and you?
-Go on, tell me.
This isn't my only source of income.
I also have this.
That's what got you
this house and car, right?
Let's see what she says.
-You won't do shit.
-It's you who won't do shit.
Mom told me not to let that thief inside.
Let's go, Doggy.
Let's get out of here.
Thanks.
Enjoy class.
Serap is here,
let me introduce you.
That's Nehir's guy.
Well, let's meet him.
Now's not the time.
But she's seen us,
it would be rude.
Whatever you say.
I've missed you.
Me too, darling.
I haven't seen you in a while.
Saygn, this is Serap.
-Good morning.
-Good morning.
-Pleasure to meet you.
-Likewise.
Your car is gorgeous.
Thank you.
-Don't let me hold you up.
-This won't do.
We need to talk properly.
You must come to my house,
we'll get to know each other.
We can sit down and talk later,
if you want.
Come on, we're running late.
See you later.
What do you think?
Well, I'm not sure yet.
-Okay, we're late, can we go?
-We'll talk later.
-Bye.
-All right, have a good day, girls.
-Right, you think?
-No way, 'cause it doesn't.
I got something to ask you.
Hm.
Why don't you like Saygn?
I don't know.
It's just a feeling.
What kind?
It feels like
he's hiding something, you know?
Something bad.
-Okay, guys, let's start.
-Good luck.
You're all done tuning?
Listen to each other. Don't rush. Ready?
One, two, three.
Nehir.
Are you upset with me?
I shouldn't have said that before.
What do I know about men?
You're right. Something's wrong.
Kado was around last night.
He said awful things to Saygn.
What kind of things?
That Saygn isn't paying for the house.
I guess the car isn't his either.
There might be someone else.
Come on, let's go.
Come on.
I'll empty the house tomorrow.
Thank you for everything, Serap.
And for your friendship.
Are you serious?
Please, do tell.
Is it a gang or something?
You swindle mother and daughter.
I didn't know, Serap.
I tried to stay away and be distant, but...
I failed.
Oh, so you think
you're in love with her, do you?
Oh, my, my.
Can I ask for one last thing?
Go ahead.
Please, don't tell her.
She can't handle it.
Sure.
And it's real easy for me.
'Cause I'm just so used to it.
She's real pretty, huh.
Gorgeous skin, and all that.
Youth is something else.
It's not about her youth.
Of course it isn't.
What is it, her depth of character?
I asked you to do one thing,
to not deceive me,
to not do the same as my husband does.
I was gonna tell you, but your illness...
Shut it!
You're all the same shit.
Who knows?
Maybe I got that virus from you.
I blamed him for no reason.
And you put her in my bed,
in the house I paid for.
I knew something was going on.
I knew when you became distant with me.
I told you to put an end to it.
Either finish this...
...or I'm gonna talk to her.
I know how this all started with us.
She has her life ahead of her.
She doesn't need a gigolo.
-Yes?
-Ms. Serap.
Oh, hi, Ms. idem.
Is it urgent? I'm very busy right now.
-I'm calling about the results.
-Oh, did they come back?
-Yes.
-Okay, I can talk.
The doctor would like you
to come to the office.
I don't understand.
-It's more appropriate that way.
-And why not on the phone?
Our protocols require you to be present.
He's not picking up, is he?
No, he's not.
If you can't stop yourself from jumping
on him, text me so I don't have to wait.
Are you all right?
I'm fine, give me a second.
Can I ask for one last thing?
For the last time.
Hold me.
My daughter complimented me
for the first time.
The thing I just can't handle is...
if you lose your hair,
you're still a man, aren't you.
It's gonna be okay.
You're a very strong woman, Serap.
Nehir!
Nehir, we didn't know! We didn't know!
You're the woman Kado was talking about!
I'm not sure what he said,
but our situation has ended.
Situation?
We were just saying goodbye as friends.
Do you mean a relationship?
No, that's not our situation!
-We...
-Say it, go on!
You can't? Let's ask him.
He said something about his income.
It's all yours, isn't it?
This house. Even his car.
Saygn.
I wondered
why you didn't find that movie sad.
It's 'cause you were shooting
the real thing here.
Well, thanks for not charging me!
Nehir! Nehir, stop.
Wait!
-Nehir!
-Don't follow me.
Your daughter is out there.
What happened?
-Let's go, please.
-Was someone there?
I'm gonna go in there and fuck him up.
Fulya, get in the damn car!
We can go.
It looks good on you.
Thank you. Where is he?
Don't know. It's just us.
-He doesn't know?
-No, but he will.
Would he be pissed?
Follow me, please.
Leave a message after the tone.
When you have finished, hang up.
It's over.
Everyone knows everything, Kado.
Yeah.
Do you know
what I hate the most in this life?
Apart from cigarettes.
It's me.
Myself.
Not because I get paid for sex.
I'm a total whore.
A whore.
Come home, man.
I really need you.
Come back
so we can get the fuck out of here!
We can move into our old house.
Enough!
Not the one that burned down.
Kado?
You home, man?
I'm sorry.
I just said it
in the... heat of the moment.
Like Mom would ever say that.
She liked you more than she liked me.
"Where's my Kado?
Bring him to me."
Hm.
"Now, Saygn, keep an eye on that boy."
"Yeah, right, Mom. He's older.
He should be looking after me."
"He's more emotional."
"Just doesn't show it."
"Okay, Mom."
Okay.
What is the matter with you?
Go. Fuck off and go eat. There.
Your back's exposed. You'll get cold.
What happened to your face?
Have you been fighting?
Kado? Kado?
Hey! Open your eyes.
Hey! Open your eyes!
Kado! Kado, get up! Kado!
Kado! Open your eyes, Kado!
Kado, wake up! Kado!
Kado!
Wake up! Wake up!
Wake up, Kado! Kado!
Pasta is ready!
MY PROSTITUTE LOVE
He loves it and shows off, man.
Let's keep it short.
-Okay, let's do it.
-Trot.
No! No!
Oh my God! Help her!
Mom! Mom! Mom!
-Mom!
-Man, I'm useless. I couldn't save her.
Mama!
Mom!
You know the first thing
I learned, doing this job?
3 YEARS LATER
Know when to cut your losses.
Once you know you're falling...
just get out of there.
Otherwise, you're screwed.
He's never fallen.
Well done.
Mr. Saygn,
can you come here for a second?
Just a moment.
I don't know. Let me talk to him.
Sir, look, sorry,
but we've just finished rehearsing,
we're really tired and hungry.
We just need a plate of regular pasta,
then we'll go.
We don't do "regular pasta," I'm afraid.
I wish I could help you,
but the kitchen is closed.
Saygn.
You know him?
Hello there.
Hello.
How are you?
Fine.
Yourself?
Yeah, good.
We... just finished.
We saw this place was open,
so we thought we'd give it a shot.
If I'd known it was yours...
You wouldn't have come?
No, I would have.
At least I'd know
that you don't serve bows.
I would.
Farfalle.
I'm...
Okay, let me see what I can do.
-Uh, there's dessert, do you want some?
-Sure.
We'll take it to go
so we don't bother you.
Uh, you, as well?
Oh, um, no thanks.
You sure? I got strawberry cake.
You really do?
Okay, then. I'll have a bite.
Elif, uh, could you get me
four tiramisus, to go.
And a strawberry cake.
Uh...
A band, huh?
They seem like good guys.
-I was, uh...
-Here...
You go.
It's wonderful in here.
-Honestly?
-Mm-hm.
We only just opened recently.
It's hard work.
Nehir, we're by the door.
Okay, then...
Uh...
-I'll pay for them.
-Don't be silly.
This one is on me.
Nehir, please.
This one's on me.
My first show.
-You've made it, huh?
-I've made a thing.
I knew it.
No covers, by the way. My compositions.
So you don't have to worry.
Thanks so much.
I'll take that.
So, it'd be nice to see you there.
Well, you and...
whoever.
See you there.
See you there.
26 MAY 2026 - NEHR NAL
"IMAGINARY FIREWORKS" DEBUT SHOW
A TRUE GENTLEMAN
An imaginary firework flying above us
Broken hearts in our chests
My face is as bright as a Saturday
But I feel like a Monday
Thanks to you
A broken heart
Colorful skies
So somber
So like me
The movie is black and white
How about we cry for a while?
A long lost love
Sounded just like me
Drowning in sorrow
Drowning in sorrow was the heart
Drowning in sorrow
Drowning in sorrow was the heart
Drowning
Drowning
An imaginary firework flying above us
Broken hearts
In our chests
My face is bright as a Saturday
But I feel like a Monday
Thanks to you
