come on!

what did they say?

I got it!!!

nobody tell dad, I wanna tell him

no need. we'll surprise him! and tonight, dinner on me!

Sevket promised dad when he finished university, the first
job he gets will be followed by a huge dinner just for my
father

we were all preparing for the surprise

but at the time, dad was facing a very big problem

you must fix your mistake

sir, because you're such a nice guy you don't know her
very well.. but Lema is not as innocent as yout think

what are you trying to say?

if it makes you feel better, I can prove it to you

and the baby is not mine

that's just one of her little games so I can marry her

that's enough

I don't believe a word you're saying

the truth.. you heard it from me

meaning? from what I understand is you're going to
do nothing about it?

I'll give her some money

were you expecting me to marry her?

sir

you were my teacher.. and like a father to me

would you approve of my marriage to a woman who was
someone else's before me?

you have a son
think about it a little

if he had done what I did with Lema
would you allow him to marry her?

you have a point... I wouldn't accept that

and the solution?

if my son had done that, I would have disapproved of him
for the rest of my life

please, sir, it's not that big of a deal

I am not upset... not with you and not with her

I am most upset for my poor children

what do they have to do with this?

because of what you did, I'm leaving work

and they might be upset.. financially

hold on a minute

a moment ago I said: if my son had done the same I would
have kicked him out

and since you're like a son to me, I must act the same
with you

there's also, the bonus you gave me

I know what it's purpose was.
Here, take it

Sir..

Our house was lit on this evening, but father's mood
was awuful

welcome home, daddy!

thank you.. why are you still awake?

dad's home!

(welcoming their father home)

mom, dad's here

Shh... be quiet, dear. It's late.

welcome, Ali Riza bey

what's up?

surprise

something good, I hope?

very good, Ali Riza, very good

Brother..

shh, don't say a word

come on, you don't want to tell me what's going on?

dad

I got the bank job!

I got the letter today. I start work on Monday

and the pay is very good, Ali Riza, very good

why is he crying?

they're tears of joy

thank God we lived to see this day
now we can safely say he'll have a good future

congratulations, son. I hope it's everything you're looking for

thank you, dad

aaaand nowww... turkey!

I promised you a long time ago, dad

you didn't forget

- dinner is ready, dad
- come on lets eat

Sevket, come

sit here

come, come

from now on, you're going to sit here

how come, dad?

from this day on, you're going to be like a father

and I'm like the eldest son here

come on, dad, that's not possible

it's possible, son

give me your hand, come

dad, come on...

please, I couldn't take your place

you're not going to listen to me?

I'm telling you, take my place

come, come on.. come

sit down

In this family, this is going to be his place from now on.
There will come a day when he'll have to take over,
you hear that girls? You must listen to your brother, and
respect him, as you do with me

on this night, dad was unable to tell us he left work

he was fighting a tough war within himself

and now it's Sevket's turn to take over and fight that war
for all of us

and from this night begins our story
