Woman.
Get word to Hayme Ana right away.
The lives of Aslıhan Hatun and Hafsa Hatun are at stake.
Titan and his men are after them.
Tell them to send Alps after them.
I will go tell...
Turgut Bey and head Alp, Bamsi.
Run, Hafsa!
Hafsa!
Run, Hafsa!
Hafsa!
Bastards.
Hafsa.
Hafsa Hatun.
Let her go.
Take me, let her go!
She is with child.
Is she, now?
That's even better.
Bamsi will be an easier mark.
You will pay for this.
You'll die.
Shut their mouths.
I don't want to hear them.
Bastard.
Let me go!
Hafsa.
Go.
Don't touch her.
Hafsa.
This letter says that one of my emirs...
gave gold to Bahadir Bey so that Hanlı bazaar may be bought from the Kayi.
We have already identified this traitor, Ertuğrul Bey.
However, Emir Nizamettin, who you captured as a traitor...
was found dead in his cell.
Not only that, Ertuğrul Bey...
In Emir Nizamettin's house,
we found letters from the tekfur and the emperor.
We examined the letters one by one.
We discovered why there was...
a despicable assassination attempt on our sultan's life at Hanlı bazaar.
What's more,
we found out how you and your Alps were ambushed.
The letters that were seized at Emir Nizamettin's house
are not real, my sultan.
There is no way Emir Nizamettin could have known which route we would take.
Emir Nizamettin has great influence on some men in the palace, Ertuğrul Bey.
The devil...
that was with me and tried to poison me...
was no doubt his man.
Neither I...
nor anyone else in our assembly has the slightest doubt about that.
Do you still doubt it?
I do, my sultan.
I know that
Emir Nizamettin is not the traitor.
He is innocent.
He did not kill himself,
but was killed by someone else in the dungeon.
Ertuğrul Bey.
Are you aware...
that you are accusing my emirs by persisting.
Except for one emir,
I do not accuse anyone, my sultan.
Tell me, Ertuğrul Bey.
Who is the emir you suspect?
It is Emir Sadettin.
How dare you?
My sultan,
Ertuğrul Bey is attempting
to dishonor and disrespect me in your presence!
I implore you, he should immediately...
ask for forgiveness!
The price of slander
is very heavy in my eyes, Ertuğrul Bey.
If you don't have any evidence to support your claim,
recant your words at once.
And apologize to Emir Sadettin.
Slander is cursed by both our customs and our religion, my sultan.
Of course,
the accuser has to prove his accusations.
Then prove your accusations, Ertuğrul Bey.
Otherwise,
I will not hesitate...
to bury my relations with you under the walls...
of Karacahisar Castle.
If it would please you, let my Alps bring Tekfur Ares in, my sultan.
Bring Ares.
Hayme Ana!
My girl.
What is this, what happened to you?
Hayme Ana,
on our way to the tribe,
Titan and his men attacked.
Aslıhan Hatun and Hafsa ran towards the woods.
Titan and his men went after them.
Alps, get to the Cavdar tribe, quick.
Go after them with the alps there.
-Yes, Hayme Ana. -Come on, hurry.
Come, my girl.
Come.
Sit, my girl.
Gündüz, bring water.
Drink, my girl.
It would be wise to reconsider, Turgut.
Settling your tribe there
will endanger both tribes in the future.
Artuk Bey speaks the truth, brother.
Come, reconsider your decision.
Is there nowhere else?
We will get you to settle some place better.
That location is trouble, my brother.
Artuk Bey.
Bamsi, brother.
My decision is final.
We set up our tents.
Don't you worry about it.
Turgut Bey.
You forget our Ertuğrul Bey's command.
My bey.
-What is it? -My bey.
An injured Alp came from the tribe.
Titan and his men carried out a raid on the road between the two tribes.
What do you mean?
The Alp who brought the news and a woman escaped injured.
The rest were murdered.
Among them were...
Aslıhan Hatun...
and Hafsa Hatun.
Did you say Hafsa?
Hafsa was among them?
-Aslıhan. -They ran for the woods.
Titan and his men went after them.
Bamsi.
Come on, brother. Let's gather the Alps. Let's go after them at once and find them.
My Hafsa.
Hafsa.
I told you.
I told you that that place was trouble.
You didn't listen.
You were as stubborn as a mule.
You did what you wanted.
Come on, brother. Come on.
It's your fault.
Your fault.
The infidels' raid was because of you.
The women will fall into the hands of the infidels.
Because of you, your stubbornness,
your pride.
-Bamsi, pull it together. What is this? -Just stop, Bamsi.
Hafsa.
Hafsa is pregnant.
She told me just this morning.
She carries my child in her womb.
She is pregnant.
Bamsi.
Don't worry.
We will find them, wherever they are.
It's because of you, Turgut.
Because of your stubbornness.
If my Hafsa...
and my child are hurt,
I will come for you, Turgut.
I will come for you.
I will come for you, Turgut.
I will come for you.
I will come for you, Turgut.
Bamsi.
So...
you are the bastard that took the lives of so many valiant Turkish Alps.
What do you have to say about Ertuğrul Bey's claims?
Ertuğrul Bey is right in his claims.
I was brought here to attest to that.
These are the rantings
of a tekfur whose honor has fallen to the ground, my sultan.
He is-- In an attempt to save his own life, he's attempting...
-to put my life-- -Silence, Sadettin!
Tell us everything you know, Ares.
Just as it says in the letter Ertuğrul Bey found in the keep,
the person I negotiated with so that Bahadir Bey would buy...
the Hanlı bazaar...
is Emir Sadettin.
I personally wrote the letter to the emperor myself.
I kept a copy.
-Lies. -If you...
speak again without being asked,
I will take your head here.
Continue, Ares.
Why did he make such a deal with you?
The caravans coming from the east would pass through Hanlı bazaar.
And I would bring the merchants from the west...
and Constantinople to Hanlı bazaar.
We would split the earnings.
You were the one who ambushed
Ertuğrul Bey, who had set out to join my campaign.
Who told you that Ertuğrul Bey...
would join my campaign and the route he'd take?
Emir Sadettin.
He wrote a letter to Ekaterina
asking us to ambush Ertuğrul Bey.
I assumed the task as commander, but...
I failed.
If Ertuğrul had died that day,
we would have taken our lands back from you today.
Ertuğrul Bey.
Who attempted to kill me at Hanlı bazaar?
It was Emir Sadettin, my sultan.
I found the absolved priest, who he had make the poison.
I went to his cave.
I found the poison made to kill you.
Your head healer...
will confirm my words.
This is the same poison, my sultan.
The traitor in your palace,
without a shred of doubt,
is Emir Sadettin, my sultan.
For the perpetuity of your state and your sultanate,
it falls upon me...
to say this to you.
Judgement...
is yours, my sultan.
What do you say about these accusations, Sadettin?
My sultan.
To see that...
a valiant frontier bey...
such as Ertuğrul Bey has fallen for this infidel's trap...
is astonishing, my sultan.
If you don't refute these claims,
your death will come from my hands.
I have arrived as you ordered, my sultan.
May I?
My sultan,
those who wait for me to...
kneel before you and shout...
and beg for mercy,
like Emir Nizamettin did yesterday,
will be disappointed, with due respect.
What do you mean, Sadettin?
I am not...
about to let an infidel...
and an inexperienced frontier bey who he has trapped
get the better of me.
But if you should believe...
that getting blood on your hands will revivify the truth,
I would be honored.
Ertuğrul Bey's death...
was told to me by his own mother and wife.
I took their statement into consideration.
And as you ordered...
I convinced Dündar Bey to sell Hanlı bazaar,
which had been left unchecked, to Bahadir Bey
in order to uphold the peace. Why?
So that this bastard wouldn't.
You are the vilest man I've known, Emir Sadettin.
As you are mine.
I gave you a chest full of gold so that he might buy the market.
You delivered that gold personally
to Bahadir Bey.
However,
the greedy Bahadir Bey,
when he couldn't buy the market, and taking opportunity of my absence,
dared to cooperate with Ares.
If I'm guilty, my only fault was to trust Ertuğrul Bey's mother,
his wife and his brother.
You convinced my brother Dündar to sell Hanlı bazaar, Emir Sadettin.
If your brother Dündar...
is not as keen as you,
that is not my fault, Ertuğrul Bey.
My duty is to stop your market
from falling into the hands of the infidels.
-Liar. -Yeah!
It's evident...
that this is an extension...
of the emperor's plan.
The emperor who used Emir Nizamettin and wants me to be next.
If you wish to...
do away with all the commands given by the state...
and unravel the truth,
then do so.
My throat is available, my sultan.
The one who set our sultan up at Hanlı bazaar...
and lured me and my Alps into a trap...
and wrote the letter to Ares was you, Emir Sadettin.
Is it true, Ares?
Ekaterina said that an anonymous letter had come.
The time and place Ertuğrul Bey would go was written on it.
Did that letter have my signature on it, Ares?
Swear in the name of the virgin and Jesus so that I'll know.
Answer, Ares.
No, it did not.
But we knew that it came from Emir Sadettin.
What a shame, Ertuğrul Bey.
You accuse me with the word of this man.
My sultan,
who saved you from Emir Nizamettin's assassination attempt?
I did.
If I wanted to kill you,
I would have sat and watched you die.
Send the Alps out.
Have them leave no stone unturned.
Don't come back until you find them.
As you wish, Hayme Ana.
Permission to enter, Hayme Hatun.
Come in, Artuk Bey.
Mother.
Where are Hafsa and Aslıhan Hatun?
Haven't they returned?
No, son.
They ran to the woods.
Those bastards went after them.
I sent the Alps, but...
still no word.
The Alp said that they did not have horses.
How could those bastards do this?
How could they come here and carry out this massacre?
How else, Mother,
how else?
Because of this one.
He even threw his own wife into the fire because of his stubbornness.
If anything happens to Hafsa,
I will come for you in both worlds.
In both worlds.
We will save them, come hell or high water.
Bamsi.
Now, let go and let's go after them.
Bamsi.
Enough, Bamsi.
Now is not the time.
We can't find them.
We have to act quickly.
Permission to enter.
Come in.
I hope it's good news.
This man wants to see you, my bey.
Who are you?
Titan sent me.
My sultan.
Don't do it.
In the Battle of Yassıçemen,
if he hadn't come at the last moment with his army,
we would have been devastated.
We are all witness to Emir Sadettin's services...
not just as a soldier...
but as an architect and a wise man of the state.
This infidel...
might be tricking you just as he tricked Ertuğrul Bey...
and putting our state into a bad position.
When you behead an emir of the state,
believing the word of an infidel,
nobody can determine where it might lead.
Lock Emir Sadettin up.
I will decide tomorrow.
Ertuğrul Bey, come with me.
Alps.
Take Ares to the dungeon.
Do you still stand by your claims, Ertuğrul?
I weighed every word for days, my sultan.
I measured them with no margin for the smallest doubt.
May I approach, my sultan?
Come, Mahperi Hatun.
Ertuğrul Bey.
Know that when I thought you were dead,
I too doubted Emir Sadettin.
I barely stopped myself from taking his head with my own sword.
I had his every step followed.
I couldn't find a single bit of evidence,
a single clue,
that could cloud his innocence.
I do not have the slightest doubt that he is a traitor, my sultan.
I am ready to do anything to prove my claims.
If Emir Sadettin is a traitor,
then Emir Nizamettin...
has paid the price of my wrath with his life.
But...
if Emir Sadettin is not the traitor,
you will have attempted to take the life of another innocent man.
Mahperi Hatun is right.
My emirs,
my wardens will begin to question my orders.
-My sultan-- -Ertuğrul Bey.
Know that there is no sleep for me tonight.
I will pass my judgement about Emir Sadettin...
tomorrow, before I set out for my campaign.
Come see me tonight.
There is another important matter I want to talk about.
As you wish, my sultan.
You overstepped, taking the word of an infidel, Ertuğrul Bey.
You made the members of our sultan's assembly turn on you.
Are you trying to scare me with the one life I have, Atabeyi?
We didn't fear the enemy on the battle ground, thank God.
We won't fear the traitors in the palace.
The day will come.
Know that.
There will surely be a price for what you've done.
If you are at fault, turn back while you are still ahead.
However,
know that your head will be the first one to roll.
Our life... is but a guest in the flesh.
It will become dust one day...
and blow in the wind.
An Ertuğrul will die;
a thousand Ertuğruls will be born.
The whole world will see whose head will roll when the time comes.
Don't you worry.
Speak.
We have the women.
If you want them back,
surrender Tekfur Ares to us.
Otherwise, Titan won't surrender the women.
Bamsi.
Give me Hafsa!
Give her to me or I'll burn you alive!
I'll sever you into pieces!
I'll raze those mountains down on your head!
Let go!
Let go of me and I'll send this man's head to that bastard!
Wait, Bamsi.
-Bamsi, wait. -Let go of me!
I come as a messenger.
If anything happens to me,
Titan will rip the baby out and send it to you.
Is Hafsa pregnant?
Oh, my God.
Help us.
I'll break every bone!
Give me Hafsa!
Give me my child!
Bamsi, wait now, Bamsi.
Bamsi.
Didn't you hear that dog?
If anything happens to him,
they will harm Hafsa and Aslıhan Hatun.
Calm down, brother.
Calm down.
I'll come back tomorrow.
Make up your mind.
Either you give us Ares and take the women,
or the women die.
Bamsi.
What are we going to do now?
What?
I know what we'll do, Mother.
We will accept what that bastard says, Mother.
We will take someone else instead of Ares...
and fight them, Mother.
We'll fight them, Mother.
-We'll fight. -If we do that,
we will throw the women into fire, Bamsi.
If we do that,
they'll kill the women, Bamsi.
What you say is wrong, brother.
Wrong.
The right...
So you know what's right, Turgut?
Didn't we end up in this situation
by listening to you?
From now on,
we don't need your opinion, Turgut.
-That's enough! -Stop!
You are way out of place.
Way out.
Bamsi!
-Turgut, Bamsi! -Bamsi.
Turgut!
Let go!
What is this?
What is it?
As if we're not dealing with enough,
are we to worry about you, too?
When we should be one in this dark hour,
you play into the hands of the enemy.
From now on,
if you as much as lay a finger on each other,
I will break those fingers!
Understood? I'll break them!
I can no longer sit and wait like this, Mother.
I'm going to go and leave no stone unturned till I find them.
I'll find them.
-I will. -Turgut.
Turgut, calm down.
The whole world is eating away at me.
They took my Hafsa.
I'll...
I'll raze the whole world down on their heads.
-I will! -Bamsi.
Bamsi.
Just wait, Bamsi.
Just wait.
Calm down.
For your wife...
and for your child, Bamsi.
We will be patient.
We will wait.
God, help us.
