Andropoz (2022) s01e03 Episode Script

1
Hey, you wanna have some fun?
What?
Do you wanna have, you know, a little fun?
Like, how?
I thought you said you were bored.
Yeah?
So, do you wanna
have some fun, then, or not?
These are important decisions.
You need to think it through
before you make up your mind.
- I did, Meryem.
- You've been married for a long time.
Sometimes marriages
can go off the rails, you know?
We had our fair share of that too.
Isn't that right, Yusuf?
We sorted it out by staying calm.
We didn't fight fire with fire
and we stayed positive.
And then we'd use it as a time
to come together and heal our wounds.
Sure. But you two have kids together.
Sweetheart, you can sort that out too.
How are things with the fertility doctor?
He doesn't go to the doctor.
- He blames me instead.
- He'll come around.
I'm asking you as your good friend.
Please do not make rash decisions, Fadime.
Halit is, uh, a reasonable guy.
If you'd like,
I could talk to him
about this whole doctor thing.
He's queer.
Oh, my God! Are you kidding me?
He said it was a joke. Didn't he, Yusuf?
He said he was joking around.
Hey, I swear on my own life,
he was just joking, Fadime.
I was just as surprised
when I first heard him. Come on.
Don't you know Halit at all?
He can be an emotional guy.
He has the soul of an artist
and he's an eccentric.
And sometimes
he can go overboard with his jokes.
- But don't we all, sometimes?
- Would you like to have a beer?
Beer? What beer? Now?
- Happy hour.
- Why do you need a beer now?
- You do it all the time.
- Fine. Let her have a cold beer.
A child.
That's what this is all about.
Women want kids, Yusuf.
Any woman lacking creativity in her life
would wanna
keep being creative by making a baby.
Actually, I will have one.
What?
What're you talking about?
What was that? Say that again.
Women come from a creative lineage,
so they feel the urge to be creators.
Otherwise life becomes unbearable,
just like that.
I think Halit's got the problem.
Oh, I agree.
- You want a glass?
- No, I'm good.
Listen, Fadime.
Halit's a wealthy man.
To be honest, he's got plenty of things,
lots of properties and stuff.
And the problem is,
when you don't have kids,
the alimony thing can be
What are you talking about?
Why don't you just get to the point?
- I'll have a beer too.
- It's okay. We can share this one.
Don't go. Have a sip.
I'm pregnant.
Great!
That's wonderful news!
I mean,
I'm so happy to hear this right now.
A child. I mean, that is great news!
Let me take that beer from you.
You know, because you're pregnant.
I think we're all good then,
because a kid is like a flower,
a butterfly.
Just total and complete joy, for a family.
I mean, when you have kids,
all your problems
just magically disappear.
It's not Halit's.
Oh.
- So she never told you about it?
- No, she didn't, Yusuf.
Oh, man, this is bad.
And things are just gonna get worse.
- You know that, right?
- I don't think we should tell him.
I'm with you on that.
It's not our problem, it's theirs.
They have to figure it out.
We shouldn't be involved.
And how exactly do we do that?
Yusuf, Fadime is your sister.
She shouldn't
have slept with that other guy!
But she's fallen love with him.
To hell with her love!
This is not the way.
Damn it. She's a married woman.
You should think twice
before doing anything like that.
It was in my fortune too.
What was?
She was reading my fortune
and she said there was a guy,
lying there, like in a coffin.
We thought it was you.
Oh, God. Terrible things will happen.
I can feel it.
Terrible things are about to happen.
CHAMELLA
HEALTH AND REHABILITATION CENTER
Wow. Really, just wow.
Bro, you look amazing.
- Amazing.
- Bless you, Halit.
You look really good.
I'm fine. I'm fine.
Thank you, guys.
Well, these flowers are for you.
Oh, you shouldn't have.
Hmm.
My drinking days are all over.
- Thank God. Thank goodness.
- Oh, thank goodness.
- I had a dream last night.
- I hope it was a good one.
I hope so too.
- I'll tell you.
- Great.
So I'm standing on the edge of a cliff.
It looks like it's gonna rain soon.
I look down the cliff,
and if I fall down,
I'll be smashed into a million pieces.
And I'm butt naked.
Hmm. Hmm.
- Butt naked.
- Mm-hmm.
Fadime is standing before me.
I hold out my hand to her.
Like asking her to save me.
I look at her
asking for help.
But she doesn't help me at all.
I look over at her,
but she doesn't reach out to me.
- Hmm.
- I keep looking.
And looking.
Well, they say that dreams show
the opposite of what's to come, right?
- Indeed. Indeed, they do.
- Mm-hmm.
Hmm.
I treated my wife badly
for so long.
I did some really bad stuff, you know?
That's what I thought about all night.
For example,
I was not able to give her a child.
She asked me to go to a doctor.
She said she wanted to have a baby.
But I didn't go.
I said, "What does a husband
have to do with a woman's doctor?"
When I leave this place behind,
the first thing I'm gonna do
will be to change my entire life.
Yeah.
Yusuf, my man. Meryem.
What a beautiful family
you guys have created.
You've got kids and all.
I really envy you as a couple.
Bro, believe me,
that's exactly what Fadime said as well.
- We talked to her earlier today.
- Huh?
She said she missed her dear Halit.
Are you serious? She really said that?
Honest to God, she did.
I have my witness here with me.
Uh
All she said
was that everything needed to change.
She's right about that.
A change is necessary.
I can't go on without Fadime.
My other half is Fadime.
Uh-huh.
I wouldn't accept being here
for anybody else but her.
I wouldn't be in rehab.
- It's all for her.
- Mm-hmm.
If she leaves me, I'll blow my brains out.
I'm done. She'll be done too, believe me.
And she won't be the only one.
I'll destroy whatever bastard she is with.
Um
Well, bro, why would you even say that?
Well, am I wrong?
Life is beautiful when we are together.
It's beautiful with Meryem.
It's because we're family.
If everything goes south,
we all die.
Please, don't say that.
That's not how it should be.
If you've done something wrong,
you should be the one
facing the consequences.
That would only be fair.
Am I right, Yusuf?
Yeah, you're right. Totally.
If my sister's
done something wrong to you,
I don't think it's fair
that I'd be the one punished for it.
Because in that particular moment,
I really didn't do anything wrong.
It was all her.
- Am I right?
- Absolutely.
I don't see it that way.
If I'm going down,
I'm taking everyone with me.
Well, I moved
the picture a little bit to the left
and put the price on the right.
And then I used a cute and cheerful font.
Wait, let me show you.
What do you think about it?
ORGANIC PADDED BRA
75 TL
Wow, I think it's great.
Um, so the rest of the model
looked kinda fake.
Do you have another we can use?
My dad had that custom made.
I don't think there's another one.
I tried to emphasize
the word "organic" as much as I could
because natural products
are really in nowadays.
Maybe we should put a sign up for it.
Huh. Right.
I need to talk to Dad about that.
Do you want me
to create a logo for "100% Organic"?
That'd be great.
Thanks so much.
You've really been a great help.
Don't mention it.
I always like helping you out.
Would you like to be a model?
Do you think it's someone we know?
No, I don't.
Someone that good at hiding secrets
wouldn't be so risky.
- I wonder who it is.
- Hmm.
We could follow her.
- You mean tail her?
- Yeah. Should I ask what she's up to?
Maybe we could just bust her.
Maybe she's with that guy right now.
And Halit's not here anyway.
Come on, let's go.
Don't be silly, Yusuf. Sit down.
What would you do if the guy's there?
You'd get so scared.
You would have a heart attack.
True.
Sometimes my chest feels so tight.
It's the fear.
Could be.
You know me so well.
That's because I'm in love with you.
And me with you.
Mm. I love you, baby.
My darling.
- Call her, see what she's doing.
- Hmm.
Just give her a call.
Dad, can I talk to you for a second?
What do you think?
Hey, good.
I think it looks good.
Good. I'll put it on the page then.
Yeah. Go ahead.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Good job.
No, I didn't do this.
- Who was it then?
- My girlfriend.
Your girlfriend?
Yeah.
- Do you use protection?
- Dad, what are you talking about?
I'm your father. It's only natural
that I'm worried about you.
- Did you do it here?
- Dad, please. What are you talking about?
At the girl's place?
Dad. Come on.
Fine. Keep your secrets.
It's secrets
and riddles with you, damn it.
What will you do if one day
that girl comes to you and tells you
she's pregnant? Then what?
Do you have any idea
how much an abortion costs?
You think I make that much?
It's an insane amount of money.
Not even the shop
comes close to making that much.
All you think about is humping
and just sleeping around here and there.
What an amazing life to live.
And we'll be the ones
cleaning up after you
and dealing with the fallout.
I have a heart condition, son.
I have a weak ticker.
Any given day, I could die.
Dad, calm down please.
I'm only 15 years old.
I have a house on the beach.
I could take one step and be in the ocean.
That makes me a girl with a net worth
of two, two and a half million
Something like that.
And all you have is a large condo in town.
When I asked if you had anything else,
you started mumbling.
- Well, we have a car.
- What make?
- Volvo.
- And the model?
- It's, uh
- Why are you mumbling, boy?
- Just tell me the year.
- Ninety-six.
That's junk.
How many square feet is the condo?
Seventeen hundred.
Gross or net?
Net.
Hey, don't you dare lie to me.
Is it gross or net floor space?
- Gross.
- Good. That's better.
- How old is your father?
- Sixty-eight.
No. That's too young.
You won't work. Should've mentioned that.
He had cancer twice. A prostate cancer.
He was a goner, but then he bounced back.
Does he have any other conditions?
No.
Does he work out a lot?
He does.
Nah, he won't die. No.
I swear, he will! He's super scrawny.
He's living on borrowed time.
Okay, I'm signing off.
Akya! Akya! But I'm in love with you!
Dude, just go away.
It's the end of the road.
- Please don't go!
- You're broke.
I'm calling her.
Yeah. Call her.
Hi, Meryem.
Hey, what are you doing?
- What do you think? I'm at home.
- What are you doing all by yourself?
Come hang out with us.
No, that's okay. I'm good. Thank you.
What's your plan for tomorrow, Fadime?
Should we go shopping?
Tomorrow?
Um
Tomorrow won't do.
I have a few errands to run.
And what errands are those?
- Just errands.
- Well, now you got me totally curious.
When are you gonna do them?
Um, planning on leaving my home at 9:00.
Cool, we'll talk then.
Good luck with your errands.
Hmm, you too. Thanks.
It's too hot in here.
It's because of the light.
But we need lots of light.
The texture should be visible.
And if we don't have shadows
the product won't be clear enough.
Uh-huh. Okay. Can you just hurry up?
All right. I'm ready.
- Are you ready?
- I am.
- Would you like some music?
- Velihan! Hurry up already.
Okay. This won't take long.
Go ahead and take a deep breath in.
- And don't show my face.
- Don't worry, I won't.
Can you please close your eyes?
Breathe in
Out.
Breathe in
And out.
This is really great.
You're just like a real model.
Breathe in
Out.
Breathe in
- What's going on here?
- Dad, I'm working with a model.
I'll show you a model.
What's going on here?
Um, okay. I'm gonna go now,
but I just want to say, Mr. Yusuf,
I only became a model
to support the improvement of your shop.
- And this is my first job anyway.
- Go. Just leave, dear. Go.
Son, are you insane?
What the hell is this?
I send you to school
so you can become a decent man.
But you come down here to shoot porn!
This has nothing to do with porn.
We just wanted
to make your website better.
I know what's going through
that dirty mind of yours.
Dad, I swear we were just taking pictures.
See for yourself. Here.
Boy, this is outrageous.
It's outrageous.
You'll delete these right now.
- Come on, Dad.
- Right now!
What would her father say if he saw these?
He'd ask what we've done to his daughter.
Wouldn't he come guns blazing?
That's what I'd do.
And it wouldn't be your ass he'd kick.
It'd be mine.
I have a goddamn heart condition, son!
I'm sick, you know?
Okay. I deleted them.
Look.
Good for you. Thank you, son.
Good for you, my boy.
My good boy.
What would I ever do
if you weren't such a good boy?
You can't imagine how kids are these days.
Beating up their dads.
I'm sorry, Dad.
You should tell that girl
that you've deleted all the pictures.
I will. I need to go to school.
Want me to clean up first?
No. No, I'll do it.
You have a good day at school.
- Dad.
- Yeah?
I love you.
And I love you, son.
Wow. My beautiful children.
We sure raised them well.
- I didn't deserve that.
- It's so stupid.
- Akya!
- It's nonsense.
There he is.
He kept staring at you during class
even though the teacher was right there.
Akya, wait! Please.
Now what?
Just go.
I thought about everything
after we talked last night.
I asked my dad about it.
We had a huge fight.
I said, "Is this really
how you're preparing me for life?"
Why would I care?
Why are you even telling me?
- He showed me this.
- What's that?
It's a deed for a plot.
He's been hiding it from us.
Three acres of land
near the Selimiye district.
When he was young,
a newspaper named Tercuman.
was giving out plots for coupons.
He collected coupons for years!
He never cared about it
because it was on some remote hill.
But then he researched it.
Let me see.
It's just near these power lines here,
so they'll probably build an energy farm.
What does that mean?
To turn it into an energy farm,
you need to have power lines.
The farm could produce electricity
using solar panels. Do you see?
And then you can
sell energy to the government.
Electricity
is practically gold these days.
Elon Musk!
Tesla!
- Darling!
- Baby!
Oh!
- Thanks.
- Enjoy.
What is it?
I can't make ends meet, Mahmut.
Everything's so expensive.
You go into a supermarket,
buy two of something
and three of another thing.
And they don't
give you plastic bags anymore.
I leave with two cloth bags, barely full,
and I actually end up paying 1,000 lira.
Do you know that? What the hell?
Why the fuck does this shit cost so much?
A mosquito repellent is 45 lira.
But you need three
because you wanna
put them in the girls' room as well.
And that makes 135 lira.
I could buy 20 liters of gas for that.
What the hell?
And they last only 45 days.
A lira a day. So do the math.
- For three people
- Hey, wait a minute.
How much do I pay you every single month?
- Twenty-five thousand.
- Twenty-five thousand.
- And do you pay taxes?
- Why the hell would I pay taxes?
Twenty-five thousand lira
that is scot-free.
I don't care about your scots.
Don't talk to me like that.
Do you even know
how much the girls need every month?
They both only wear designer clothing.
I'm going back to Muğla tomorrow.
The girls will stay with you.
And you'll see
how much they spend every month.
Either you give me
the money from the beach house
or increase the alimony to 50,000.
50,000.
If not, I'll screw you big time.
I promise I won't leave you alone.
Mm, I can't give you that much.
I mean, I'm not making
that much in the shop
to pay you 50,000 lira per month.
Then give me the beach house.
I'll put the money in an interest account,
then 25,000's good.
I swear, I can't.
You know how I live. I'm sorry.
Tell that to the broads you're fucking!
'Cause I'm not buying it!
- Oh, you!
- Ow!
- Motherfucker. You fucking bitch!
- Ah!
Svetlana, stop.
What the hell are you doing?
They set-up lights too.
I don't think the kid's gonna graduate.
All right.
Hi. This is Ahu. One of the twins.
My sister and I
were at your shop the other day?
Hello.
Yeah, I remember.
Your account looks good.
It's nice to see
products like yours in the country.
Thank you very much.
Right.
Yeah.
We can place an order from here, right?
Well, sure you can.
Absolutely.
See you then.
See you
then.
Halit!
Did I startle you?
Where did you come from?
I missed you.
You didn't visit me,
so I came to check on you.
You'll go back, right?
Do you want me to go?
Of course. You should.
Your treatment's not over yet.
Please let's not go back to square one.
Have we got any beer left?
Halit. Stop that.
Why didn't you visit?
- They told me not to.
- Who did?
The doctor.
Which doctor?
How should I know which doctor it was?
They all pretty much look the same to me.
Who was that?
Hmm?
The guy in the picture on your phone.
Oh, you're talking about, um
You know I'm taking classes
for paragliding. The instructor.
- You mean the instructor?
- Hmm.
Can I take a quick look at his photo?
What the hell are you trying to say here?
Here.
Take a look! You've never trusted me
a day in my life anyway. Just look at it.
Darling. Come on.
You've got this all wrong.
How would I get it wrong, Halit?
You really think
I don't know what you're talking about?
I'm sorry.
Oh.
So it's good, right?
You apologized and it's all good now.
I know I couldn't make you happy.
I understand that.
I'm a shitty guy. But that's over.
I swear.
Look, I quit drinking for you.
I went to rehab for you.
I promise you
I can change once and for all.
Just look how
my brother Yusuf has changed himself.
I can do the same thing.
I can shake all the ugliness out of me.
I've already started to do that.
Don't you see that?
Don't you believe me?
I don't.
- Please, Fadime. Believe me.
- I've heard this so many times.
And I want a divorce. I was waiting
for you to get out of hospital,
but now that you've brought it up
Just let me go.
I can't let you go, darling.
I left you a long time ago.
Hi. I wanna buy a few things.
Could you, by any chance, bring them over?
Sure thing.
I want something super sexy.
Like a garter.
Or even see-through lingerie.
- Top or bottom?
- Just bring everything you have.
Text me your phone details
and I'll send you the location.
Right.
Why'd you call the guy home?
You know what time it is?
Why not go to the store tomorrow?
- What's the rush?
- I thought you were bored.
- We can have a little fun.
- With a married guy? You saw his ring.
I like married guys.
They're the most hassle-free.
I'll be in my room.
I don't want any part in this.
Don't come running to me
if you get in trouble.
When have you become so boring?
And what do you think I'll do?
I'll just have a little fun.
What's the harm?
That's how it always starts.
Next thing we know, I'm in trouble, too.
All right. All right. Just hang out
in your room. I'll deal with him, okay?
MOSQUITO REPELLANT SPRAY
Where does that woman live, Mahmut?
Does she live in Nice? Or maybe Paris?
Huh? She can't live on 25,000 lira?
I mean, this is only Muğla, damn it.
How expensive can anything be?
The minimum wage is 2,500.
That's enough now. Stop it.
If you give her the money to the house,
you can kiss me goodbye.
What am I supposed to do?
She says she can't make ends meet.
You won't divorce her either.
This is the first time I've seen
a married man pay alimony to his wife.
Since you pay her so much,
she should give you a blowjob.
Watch your mouth. That's the mother
of my children you're talking about.
- Is she?
- Stop it.
- Is she? Or is she not?
- That's none of your business.
If I took that much money as her,
I would definitely give blowjobs.
What are you doing? Know how much this is?
We don't have any left at home.
What am I supposed to do?
- Who is it?
- It's Yusuf.
- Good evening.
- Good evening.
Here you go, ma'am.
We've ordered new boxes for deliveries,
but haven't gotten them in the store yet.
- You'll have them next time, hopefully.
- Hopefully.
Come in, please.
No. No, thank you. I'll wait here.
Uh, you go ahead and try them on.
Um, after that
Oh, you don't have to wait outside.
You've come all the way here. Please.
Uh All right, I'll come in.
I mean, why not?
Mm!
Wow! This is one big house.
It's my dad's.
I'm not gonna lie, I wish
my father had a place like this, you know.
What can I get you to drink?
Oh, no. It's fine. I'm not staying long.
- A beer.
- A beer.
Okay, thanks so much.
Oh, hey, if you don't have a beer,
just water is okay.
I'm not Ahu.
Oh, sorry about that.
So sorry.
You are twins after all.
Sorry!
I'm sorry.
Uh, thank you, miss.
- Identical or fraternal?
- Do you even know the difference?
- No.
- Why do you ask then?
- I don't know. Just chatting.
- Would you prefer a glass with that?
No, no. I'm good, thanks.
Call me Ahu. Come on.
Sounds good.
Ooh.
- I think I'll try this on.
- Sure. Whatever you say.
Be right back.
Oh.
Psst! Hey there, buddy.
Look here.
Hey, you missed out on evolution, huh?
You're stuck here
all by yourself, aren't you?
Pshaw.
China.
Is this okay?
Looks really good on you.
Guess I'll take it then.
Sure, whatever you say.
Oh!
Hmm.
But of course,
since these have lace on them,
it's impossible to use cotton,
if you know what I mean.
Don't think I asked.
My bad again.
I'm really sorry.
I keep forgetting that you're twins.
It's really embarrassing.
I'm so sorry,
but you really do look so much alike.
- Good God.
- How does this look?
Awesome.
Good job. Awesome.
If you don't mind me asking,
would you like to model for my shop?
Because everything looks so good on you.
Sure. Just take some pictures.
Oh, I was just kidding. Yeah, I mean,
my kids are already taking care of that.
Oh. A mannequin won't do.
It doesn't look real.
It's just so fake, you know?
You need a real model. Someone like me.
So fake, right?
Yeah, so fake.
Check this out. See the difference?
Do you know why I like you?
I really don't.
Because you have business instincts.
You're the only one in town
who sells things online.
This place hasn't changed the tiniest bit
ever since my childhood.
You're bringing something new
and I wanna help.
So, let me.
Uh, thank you.
Yes, small towns
are small on courage too.
Mm. Go on.
Oh, yeah, sure. I will.
Uh It'd be really good.
'Course.
Just earlier today, I had to fire a model.
Why's that?
Well, I don't know,
I just didn't feel right about her.
- Ah.
- Okay then.
Here we go.
Uh, take a a deep breath.
Okay, I'm ready. Press it.
Uh
Come on. Hit it hard.
Uh
I am pressing it, but it won't focus.
Here. Let me do it.
- Okay.
- You take the picture?
Nope, still nothing.
I couldn't really, uh
- Wait.
- I can't focus, you know?
- All right.
- Just a sec.
- Did you take it now?
- Nope. I can't press it.
C'mon, man! I'm losing my mind.
Will you press it already?
Ahu, what the hell are you doing?
- Get away from him!
- I swear I didn't do anything.
I have two kids!
Yeah, I don't remember talking to you.
Oh, sorry.
- What are you doing?
- What am I doing?
Don't play dumb, Ahu. Just let the guy go.
Stop playing with people's feelings.
And go put something on!
You're walking around in your bra
when there's a strange man around.
