NO ANIMALS WERE HARMED DURING THE FILMING OF THIS PRODUCTION
Fall back, quickly!
It's time to speak with Ertuğrul Bey.
Take the caravan to Hanlı Bazaar.
You, come with me.
To the Kayi Village.
Come on, men.
Bismillahirramanirrahim!
Allah!
Come on!
Allah!
Come on!
Go, Father! Run!
Come on!
Go! Run!
Run, Father!
Come here, Father!
Father!
Ertuğrul Bey! Ertuğrul Bey!
You were so strong, Father!
You beat them all!
Grow up
and we'll race too.
-Mashallah to my men! -Mashallah!
Mashallah!
-My bey. -Günalp Bey.
-My bey. -My friend.
Mashallah, men.
My dear, don't wear yourself out.
I'm fine, don't worry.
Even when I sit, he doesn't stop.
If he really is Osman, like we've dreamed,
then nobody will be able to stop him.
Halime, a little crazy is always good.
Our babies should be a little crazy
so they can advance their father's legacy.
I hope so.
My bey.
Speak.
Almıla Hatun from the bazaar and two men are here.
They wish to see you.
Who is this woman?
Where are they?
Damn it!
Stop!
Where to?
Answer me.
Kill this man.
What do you wish to cover during our council discussion?
A discussion?
Our caravan was ambushed by bandits,
and you want a discussion?
Bandits?
Where?
The forest road. My men are dead.
Chief Alp Bamsi.
It's been a while since we've encountered bandits.
Where did they come from?
The alps are always on patrol, my bey.
The road for the caravan is clear.
Apparently...
not so clear.
Ertuğrul Bey.
We came at your invitation.
We were told your lands were safe.
We trusted you.
But our men died before we even reached the bazaar.
We almost lost all our goods.
You can't hold a council meeting
and leave your guests to the bandits' mercy.
Woman.
Watch your mouth.
You're speaking to the frontier bey, Ertuğrul.
Ertuğrul Bey secured these lands with pride.
He won't give them up to some bandits.
We'll take care of the bandits.
We'll reimburse you for the lost goods.
Bandits never lasted long in our territory before,
and they won't last now.
Rest assured.
Go back to the bazaar and do your work.
I hope you're right, Ertuğrul Bey.
We're here for our bread.
If you can't protect us, we'll have to protect ourselves.
Excuse us.
The woman was out of line, my bey.
Her caravan was ambushed.
Her men died.
We'll overlook it.
Should I send men from the castle to hunt the bandits?
No need, Günalp Bey.
Bamsi.
Tell the alps.
Turgut, Günalp Bey.
Get ready.
We'll take care of those bandits who are brave enough
to ambush a caravan.
All right, my bey.
Who is this man, Leon?
I don't know, sir.
He said he was a traveler.
He's no ordinary man.
I'm sure he has important information.
About what?
Ertuğrul.
Ertuğrul?
What does he want?
Ertuğrul's head.
Bring him in.
As you wish.
What can you tell me about Ertuğrul?
You are watching Ertuğrul.
You seek revenge for your son.
But first, you must purge the scum around you.
Who are you? What are you saying?
Just call me the Traveler, Governor.
These must be the bandits.
-They look like bandits. -You're right, Turgut.
They have good swords.
They must be good at fighting and looting.
The merchants must be good fighters, too,
since they gave them such a beating.
They sure are, my bey.
They learned how to fight to save themselves
from ambushes like this.
Or perhaps...
they're used to fighting bandits.
My bey.
There's blood on the river bed. It goes that way.
Come on, let's follow it.
Did you like it?
Yes, Grandma.
I made them myself.
Gave them to the tribe's babies.
It's the spring council. Let's make them happy.
Don't worry, Mother Hayme.
We'll distribute them alongside the molasses.
All right, dear.
-Mother? -Yes?
Whoever that woman is,
she has cast a shadow on the council.
Oh, dear.
Her caravan was ambushed, so she was angry.
Nobody should enter a council meeting like that.
I don't know about that, but I know I don't like her.
Once Ertuğrul kills the bandits,
he'll find out if the woman has any secrets.
What happened?
I think he kicked.
Halime?
Are you okay?
My dear, that doesn't look like a kick.
You're right.
This isn't a kick.
Lie down now.
Alçiçek.
Prepare the bed.
As you order.
Gündüz, take those clothes and give them to your brothers and sisters in the tribe.
-Go now. -Okay, Grandma.
Come, dear.
-All right then. -Come here.
Slowly, slowly...
Okay.
It hurts, Mother. Your grandson is coming.
Hold on, dear. Be strong.
God willing, my grandson will come.
Who knows, maybe he's our promised Osman.
Alçiçek.
Give Savcı to me.
Oh, dear.
Your brother is coming.
Alçiçek, boil some water.
Tell the midwives.
Halime Hatun is giving birth.
As you order.
Mother, it hurts a lot.
Hold on dear, almost there.
Hold on, Halime. Come on.
Hold on.
Oh, my dear baby.
Who are you? What do you want?
How dare you attack a caravan in our territory,
headed towards our bazaar?
That's Ertuğrul! Attack!
Who are you?
How dare you attack this caravan on our land?
We...
A man told us that they were carrying many goods.
He told us where they would be.
Who was he?
I don't know him.
I don't know.
But we believed him.
This is not a normal caravan attack.
Whoever that man is, he wanted them to attack this caravan.
Whoever he is, he must have a problem with the tanners.
Not just anyone could do such a thing in our land, my bey.
Who did this?
Who made these bandits attack
that woman and the tanners?
Look what I brought you from Constantinople.
Do you like it?
What happened, Kritos?
Emir Sadettin, the one Ertuğrul killed.
What about him?
Did also you sleep with Emir Sadettin...
to aid in your escape from Ertuğrul's dungeons?
Kritos!
What are you saying?
You used my son's pain!
You used my hate for Ertuğrul!
You became my woman!
You took my deepest secrets to Emir Sadettin!
How could you, Marya? How could you?
You will die!
You're hurting me.
My love and loyalty to you is genuine.
I accepted Emir Sadettin's offer to leave the dungeon.
But once you took me in, I never betrayed you.
I loved you, Kritos.
I really did.
You're my everything.
You lie! You will die!
You love me so much you want to kill me.
So...
the Traveler was right.
Now it's Ares' turn.
I mean...
Ahmet's turn.
-Selamunaleykum. -Aleykumselamun, my bey.
Brother Ahmet.
-Welcome. -Thank you.
-Come. -Thanks.
Come on, men.
I hope you have good news, Ahmet.
I do, my bey. I have great news for you.
Speak.
Did Governor Kritos decide to conquer Karacahisar Castle?
If only.
That would make things easy.
Indeed.
But you were right, Ertuğrul Bey.
Once Sultan Gıyaseddin ensured stability in the Seljuk State,
Nicaea didn't send the army.
I had hoped for a fight.
I wanted to go after the infidels.
Patience, Turgut.
The governor won't stand idle.
He'll do everything to prevent us from getting to Söğüt.
He won't wait long.
He asked me to get the men ready.
The governor's soldiers are easy prey for us.
But for the wealth and happiness of the people
in my land,
I will postpone the migration for now.
If the governor acts, it will be a bloodbath.
It will hurt trade too.
Unfortunately.
There are many innocents, Muslim and non-Muslim.
The governor's ambition and revenge will hurt them.
I fear for the order you've managed to establish.
My bey...
they won't dare attack the castle.
If you allow it, I wish to stand guard outside with my men.
We can send a message to Governor Kritos without scaring the people.
Good idea, Günalp Bey.
Do that.
The castle must be guarded by enough men at all times.
We'll send alps to the castle.
Close the gates after sundown for security.
As you wish.
We'll use the governor's woman, Marya...
and plot against him, Ahmet.
If we kill the governor,
the fire of his vengeance will dissipate.
As you order.
But... there are other reasons why the emperor doesn't want peace.
Make sure that the emperor won't send another army.
Why?
Mongols.
We know that Ögedei and his armies aim for the south,
the fertile lands of the Euphrates and Tigris.
I heard in Nicaea that...
Ögedei is ready to invade Anatolia.
His army is led by his trusted commander.
If the Sultan makes a mistake or shows weakness,
they'll invade Anatolia and spill blood. Everyone will be killed.
They won't stop until Constantinople.
Who is leading the invasion, Ahmet?
A man called Noyan, I've heard.
Ertuğrul, I've been reborn from my ashes so I might kill you and your bloodline.
Alangoya.
Yes, Brother.
I trained you for this.
Come here, my brave sister.
Tell me what you've done.
I did my duty.
-Did you see Ertuğrul? -I did.
Tell me.
I exploited his sense of honesty and honor and got a place at his bazaar.
He trusts me now.
I even met his wife and mother.
My savage hawk. Well done.
You proved once again that you're the pride of this empire.
I've made many sacrifices to the spirits for giving me such a sister.
From now on, you'll be able to offer them the blood and meat of the Turks.
My comrades...
My comrades died so that you'd be able
to seduce Ertuğrul.
May the spirits protect them from Erlik Khan's wrath.
May their paths be clear.
Now, let's do our duty.
What are you saying? Where did Noyan come from?
He died. My bey, that demon died. We saw it.
Do you know that devil?
I do, Ahmet.
I know him well.
Welcome to Noyan's hell, Ertuğrul.
So, you're Noyan.
The hellhound himself!
Brother?
Brother, brother!
Hold on. You'll be fine, Brother.
My bey.
How can that be? We all saw it.
When my brother Sungur was injured, we panicked
and set off to take him home.
We just left Noyan's body there.
My bey. You destroyed Noyan.
You slashed him all over.
That scum was covered in blood.
I know, Bamsi, I know.
But he's alive.
That means that dog...
isn't after Anatolia.
He'll be after you, my bey.
