THE STORIES AND CHARACTERS DEPICTED HERE WERE INSPIRED BY OUR HISTORY
NO ANIMALS WERE HARMED DURING THE FILMING OF THIS PRODUCTION
Why did Ertuğrul take his son to Nicaea?
What do you do there with the infidels?
Ertuğrul Bey doesn't work with anyone.
He handles his own affairs.
If he took him there, he has his reasons.
I don't know anything else.
Your Highness,
our men lost them on the way to Nicaea.
They couldn't find their tracks.
They couldn't?
What is Ertuğrul doing?
Why does he take his son away from justice? Speak!
From justice?
Which justice is that?
Do you call this tyranny justice?
Artuk Bey.
You know all of Ertuğrul's secrets.
You killed this country's alps!
You killed Umur Bey! Umur Bey!
You massacred the Mongols!
You helped the criminals.
And now you work with infidels.
Do you wish to rebel against the state?
Tell me!
Is there even a state left to rebel against?
You gave everything to the infidels.
Emir Bahattin,
if justice will one day prevail,
it's the likes of you who must pay.
The likes of me must pay, is that it?
So you won't give up your rebel ways?
Ertuğrul's crimes are already too much.
Once my men bring him in,
I'll hang you all myself!
There's no salvation for you! It's over!
I'll destroy you all,
not just him and his title!
What are you doing here?
Where is İrene?
I don't know.
These are not your clothes.
Speak, where is İrene?
I don't know.
Speak if you want to live.
Where is İrene?
She's going after Gündüz Bey.
So, you two played a game.
I'll kill İrene first, then you.
Find İrene, quickly.
Quickly!
My Gündoğdu.
May I come in, Mother?
Come in, Son.
Mother.
My beautiful mother,
why aren't we telling them?
Calm down, Son.
They have enough troubles.
It's not time to give them more pain.
You're right, but they'll find out sooner or later.
We'll tell them soon.
And we'll know what to do.
First, talk to the alps.
They must not speak.
Nobody says a thing until I say so.
As you wish.
Come, İlbilge Hatun.
Couldn't sleep?
Just like you.
There's a fire between us like this one, Ertuğrul Bey.
Some people will fall in.
And I'm responsible for it.
My wish is to extinguish it together with you.
If someone is to burn...
it will be those who started the fire.
I'm in such a position...
that whatever I decide...
I will make enemies.
I have no fear at all.
Let everyone be my enemy.
So long as justice prevails.
I can get by alone.
God helps those who work for his justice.
I know you want his justice too.
That's why I wanted to speak to you.
My tribe is coming.
My brother will soon be here.
The state also awaits information from me.
They'll call for the blood of my alps and my father.
How will I respond, Ertuğrul Bey?
Don't think about what to say to them.
Just listen to your conscience, İlbilge Hatun.
That's important.
In situations like these, it is conscience and seeking refuge in God
that save a person from calamity.
Your decision.
Your responsibility.
Know that if you stand with God,
I'll support you no matter what.
I hope that justice will prevail.
Excuse me.
Obviously, Ertuğrul Bey helped his son run away from justice, Your Honor.
Your Honor, everything is obvious.
Savcı, Osman, Süleyman.
Wait here.
Hayme Hatun.
And now...
you use Ertuğrul Bey's absence...
to condemn his son with lies?
Know your place, Hayme Hatun.
Or I'll make you pay for your insults.
You're committing tyranny with the power of the state behind you, Emir Bahattin.
You're being unjust to innocents with your lies.
Enough!
Take these women away.
-No, you don't! -Stop!
Not a step further!
I must speak to the judge.
Go ahead.
I'm listening.
Don't you realize that Ertuğrul Bey brings my grandson here, to the court...
so that justice can prevail?
You speak like you don't know what your son did.
You know Ertuğrul Bey paid his son's ransom
and helped him run away to the infidels.
Do you believe that?
It's the truth.
The truth!
My soldiers...
will bring Ertuğrul and his murderer son here.
If they resist,
their heads will be on spikes in the main square of Söğüt.
Lock them away with Artuk Bey.
I'll see to them later.
Show no mercy if they resist.
That's an order.
Allah!
My Gündüz.
What?
My son.
You'll see me first, Emir Bahattin.
What are you doing here?
Men, put your swords away!
Your Honor.
I brought my son, who faced many lies and is branded a fugitive,
before you with his blessing.
Our witnesses who will prove his innocence are waiting outside.
The decision is yours.
We are glad to hear that, Ertuğrul Bey.
I'll listen to Gündüz Alp and your witnesses
and make a decision.
And the accuser...
İlbilge Hatun too, of course.
Dumrul, bring in the witnesses.
As you wish.
Why is Artuk Bey...
imprisoned and tortured for no reason?
It's my right to know what you're doing, Ertuğrul Bey.
Are you an emir of the state, or a bandit?
I heard you took your son to Nicaea!
What could I do?
Since when is hearsay more important
than the words of the frontier bey?
Tell me!
Am I to protect Söğüt from my enemies,
or from an emir who lost his way?
İrene.
Damn it!
Since the witnesses are here,
the trial begins.
My brave brothers!
At last you're here.
Sure we are, Artuk Bey.
-Are you okay, Artuk Bey? -I'm fine, Abdurrahman Alp.
Is Ertuğrul Bey here?
Yes, he is.
There's a big spectacle upstairs. Come quickly.
I wish to see the fear in Emir Bahattin's eyes.
Let's go quickly.
-Come. -Let's go!
Where did you first hear of this Dragos that Ertuğrul Bey mentioned?
His men had captured us.
They were going to kill him.
I heard them talking about it on the road.
What did they want?
The secret inside my sibling's necklace.
What was that secret?
I think it was Dragos' real identity.
My father wanted to...
warn the Tekfur against Dragos.
That's why he was poisoned and killed.
The Tekfur died the day we gave him the necklace.
This can't be a coincidence.
My father was very healthy.
Dragos' men killed my father. I'm sure of it.
They locked me up to keep me there.
Your Honor...
this is no more than a fallacy.
Ertuğrul Bey
shows us an imaginary enemy...
to save himself and his son.
He wants war with the Byzantines.
We can't do this.
Gündüz Alp was with me when Umur Bey's alps were killed.
Gündüz is no murderer.
This woman...
is in love with Gündüz Alp.
She lies to protect him.
I swore before the priest to tell the truth.
How can you say that?
Enough!
Do you have anything to say, Gündüz Alp?
No, Your Honor.
Both my witnesses have confirmed my claims.
The decision is yours.
But I will say this.
Everyone thought I ran away because I was guilty.
I only wanted to clear my name.
I went after the real murderers.
That is my only crime.
I am innocent.
Lying murderer! He says he's innocent!
You won't fool the court with your lies.
Ataç Bey!
I'd like to say my last words, if you allow me.
I suffered a lot.
I was fooled a lot.
The only reason why...
was that I didn't trust Ertuğrul Bey.
But I believe this,
after all that I've seen and lived through.
Gündüz Alp is not a murderer...
and Ertuğrul Bey was not involved.
I withdraw my accusation.
Damn it.
And if Ertuğrul Bey allows it,
I'd like to go after Dragos with my tribe as well.
It's all clear now.
And since the lady withdrew her accusation,
we have peace.
Therefore, the trial is over
since the parties reached an agreement.
And the prosecution is hereby
forbidden to act legally.
Gündüz Alp, you are free.
The case is closed.
Damn it.
I'll ruin your life, Ertuğrul.
I'll ruin your life!
I'll be your hell!
Grandmother.
I made you and Father sad.
Forgive me.
Your grandmother loves you.
Father.
My brave son.
I wish to kiss your hand, Mother Hayme.
Welcome, my dear.
At last, you're back.
My Osman.
Aunt.
It's over now.
It's over, Ertuğrul Bey.
Aunt.
-Welcome. -Thank you.
How are my brothers?
Fine.
We'll talk about them later, huh?
What are you waiting for?
We'll celebrate tonight.
We'll fulfill our promises.
Feed the hungry, set a great table.
That's right!
We'll have fun!
Hey, people!
We'll have nine types of food at the feast.
Deer, sheep, birds.
I could even eat a stone with white bread.
We'll have our feast.
We'll have our food.
We'll pray and say thanks to God and the prophet!
Peace be upon him!
We'll gather our families!
We'll have a bard sit with us...
and sing!
Well said.
Bamsı seems eager now.
I am, brother!
I'm eager!
What's sweeter than a honeycomb?
What's better than bread?
I'm on the road for three days, feed me!
Here, the secret information on Dragos
that I didn't mention in court.
Give this to our Sultan, Emir Bahattin.
What do you ask from the Sultan, Ertuğrul Bey?
Dragos wants to start a rebellion and take back Söğüt.
I'm sure he killed Tekfur Yannis together with Commander Lais.
I want him to inform the Emperor
so the Emperor can take precautions.
Sultan should know that I'll protect my kingdom.
We are strong enough to protect ourselves.
And Lefke Castle?
If the Emperor can't solve this issue,
I'll have no choice but to...
conquer that castle myself.
That's all.
Go safely, Emir Bahattin.
Damn it.
Bell ringer, ring the bells!
Today is a holiday!
Ertuğrul Bey and his son are innocent!
Go on, ring the bell!
Thank you, God, for giving peace to our people.
Protect us from evil, oh God.
I'll be your hell!
You haven't eaten a thing since you arrived, İlbilge Hatun.
I don't want anything, Mengü.
Are you upset about today?
My conscience is clear about today.
I did what's right for justice,
not for Ertuğrul Bey or his son.
But there are those who don't agree.
They'll attack us with all their might.
They'll attack me
when they see weakness.
They will try to make me give up and surrender.
My Lady, you might be angry with me, but...
is it not time to end your loneliness?
A brave woman like you,
does she not deserve a brave man?
You'll protect one another,
and you'll have someone to support you.
Who could support me?
May I come in, İlbilge Hatun?
Come in, Ertuğrul Bey.
I have things to do.
Thank you for your faith and trust today,
İlbilge Hatun.
Justice has prevailed.
I'm happy.
Thank you too, Ertuğrul Bey.
You helped me away from a wrong path.
Now I only want to...
find the real murderer.
Don't worry, İlbilge Hatun.
We'll find your father's murderers,
just like we helped justice prevail.
I'll stand together with you from now on.
I'll do anything to assist you in your duty.
Thank you, Ertuğrul Bey.
We're celebrating tonight
for justice and the salvation of my son.
We wish to see you there.
It's your right too.
I'll be there.
Ertuğrul played us all saying he was going to Nicaea.
He acquitted his son and he took İlbilge by his side.
We should have killed him.
Lais.
Yes, Ertuğrul defeated us for now.
But the real defeat is giving up.
Take this gold
and bring us new warriors.
Right now!
And destroy anyone at the castle who isn't one of us.
Capture the castle completely!
How is the bazaar going?
The merchants are still there.
Trade is still going on.
Why?
Didn't you intimidate Mikis?
Threatening his family wasn't enough?
We did what you told us to do.
He was very scared.
But he still hasn't done anything.
I don't understand.
Maybe we must intimidate him more.
Understood.
Time to meet with him.
This war will rage on!
We'll move with new plans!
We'll be bolder and more dangerous!
We'll hit them when and where
they least expect it!
