**June 2024- I've had several people ask where they can watch Cesur ve Guzel (The Brave and Beautiful) with English subtitles. A quick Google search shows it is on DailyMotion (with ads). My blog post 'Where to watch Turkish Drama with English Subtitles' has some additional options and tips on how to search DailyMotion.
First things first:
•Episode timestamps may be off depending if your episode includes the opening credits. •Timestamps of romantic scenes are highlighted in pink. Other scenes not to miss (poignant, funny, great acting, etc) are highlighted in green.
•Tip: To quickly move through footage to find a key scene, click on the gear or speedometer at the bottom of the screen. You can slow down scenes as well. (Feature not available on Vimeo.)
•I tried to include all the timestamps for each noted scene, but I may have missed a few so search a little after the initial clip as oftentimes a scene is “interrupted” by another scene.
•Disclaimer: This guide is full of spoilers!
•If you want to watch a quick recap of the romantic moments of Cesur and Suhan, watch this short video :)

-12:15 Tender moment when Suhan apologizes for misjudging Cesur.
-20:00; 57:00; 1:37:00 Suhan starts investigating everyone and everything. She just wants the unbiased truth. She senses that something isn't quite right with Cesur—he's hiding something. She just can't put her finger on it, and because he is so charming and she is attracted to him, she has a hard time standing her ground.

At the end of the scene he says, “I'll make sure not to hurt you.”

Episode 6
-Opens where episode 5 leaves off-- C's mother getting “rescued” by Korludag. At the same time, Cesur tells Suhan, Don't spy on me. If you want to know about something, just ask. But when you ask, you're going to have to be brave [to hear the truth].

-1:20:00; 1:25:00 Flashback--we see how Cesur learned that Korludag killed his father. Suhan is sad as she hears this 'truth.' He says, Remember what I told you the other day? You'd need to be brave to hear the truth. [This is the truth.] She says she thinks he is looking for the killer in the wrong place. He says, “Ok.” She says, “I think you won't give up so easily.” He replies, “I don't want to fight with you.” {{Almost kiss}}
-1:45:00 Suhan tells Bullant she doesn't see a future for them together.
-1:57:50 A company vote (over what, I did not understand-maybe that the company go public instead of private?) but in the end only Bullant voted with Korludag, so the vote went the way Cesur wanted it to. Again, he is drawing people to his side, away from Korludag.
-2:07:00- End Korludag announces that he married Adalet.
Episode 7
-Opening: At a celebration over the company vote going Cesur's way, Suhan tells him she returned the ring to Bullant. Cesur says, "You did the right thing. I am very happy." She says, "It had nothing to do with you." He says, “Do you still think so?” After her father announces his marriage to Adalet, Suhan leaves, crying. Cesur says he can't leave her like this—he'll take her wherever she wants to go.
-6:37; 9:45; 17:00; 19:42; 31:26; 40:18; 52:14, 1:03:15; 1:09:42; 1:17:30; 1:22:05 Cesur takes Suhan to Istanbul so she can "drink all night." Drunk, she opens up about her pain of losing her mother. He throws her over his shoulder, gets her showered, then puts her to bed. One of my favorite scenes in whole show--wonderful, romantic, and funny moments.

-13:10; 16:51; 23:08; 26:42 Suhan confronts Cesur in the hospital and he tells her the truth about her father. She doesn't want to hear it. Poignant scene. And Kivanc plays a groggy man so well I wondered if he took a sedative ! (At 1:10:10 as well)

-2:10:00 Cesur shows up at New Year's Eve Party

Episode 11
-Opening: Repeat of the ending of episode 11 with Suhan learning that it was her father who kidnapped her.
-5:45 Cesur shows Suhan the paintings he “stole” from her family's houses. He says, “Do you still want to marry me?”
-12:14 In the car, he teases her saying, “If you insist on marrying me, I surrender.”
-19:00 Sweet little scene where Cesur massages Suhan's neck, and she tries to come to terms with all that has happened in the last 24 hours (they went on picnic, had a wreck, she 'saved him' from downing, she was kidnapped, she found out the truth about her father, she proposed to Cesur.)
-23:15; 24:41; 30:07; 33:30; 41:43; 49:00; 50:40; 51:47; 56:00; 59:16; 1:04:42; 1:06:26 they prep to get married (photos, blood test, haircut, clothes). Some sweet moments.
-25:33 Bullant makes his first move on Bano, Cesur's attorney.
-44:00 Suhan has a flashback to how her brother was sad that their mother missed his wedding. Now she is sad as her mom is also missing her wedding.
-46:19 Shirrin and Kamal reconcile their little spat. We see a little romance between Cesur's mother and father.
-1:08:45; 1:10:46 Cesur and Suhan marry in a very rocky ceremony. She loves Cesur but can't admit it as she still doesn't fully trust him.
-1:18:00 Korludag nearly has a heart attack hearing the news that Suhan married Cesur.
-1:29:11 Cesur and Suhan go to police station to give a testimony about Suhan's kidnapping.
-1:35:04; 1:38:00; 1:41:00 Cesur and Suhan return home after wedding, celebrate with his mom, Shirrin, and Kamal. Her father has the power cut off to their house.
- 1:46:03; 1:49:02 “One day it will be a real marriage and you will love me very much.”
-1:53:00; 2:03:51 Night of wedding, Bano (drunk) calls Suhan and says, "I hate you! You ruined Cesur's life and sidetracked him from his revenge of Korludag."
-1:53:55; 1:58:49; 2:02:44 Jaida sows more seeds of discord to cast suspicion on Cesur, and Suhan believes it.
-More stuff hits the fan. Korhan and Suhan are both torn between loving/hating their father. One minute they trust Cesur, the next they don't.
-2:05:00 Wedding night.
-1:50:00- end. The ending is very confusing. The intimate scene at the end is presented as a flashback. But when you see it, it's unclear if it's a flashback or wishful thinking. I believe the chronology of events should be: wedding night phone call from Bano; Suhan goes to Cesur's room and spends the night. Next day: Suhan finds out some incriminating things about Cesur, and Jaida sows seeds of dissension, making Suhan regret the intimacy with Cesur. I assume the producers needed to end the episode with a 'wow' factor, so they saved the intimate scene for the end and presented it as a flashback rather than showing it in “real time.” It was poorly done, and less than perfect translation made it more confusing.
Episode 12
-Opening: Replay of wedding night flashback. More flashbacks at 5:10,
16:49, 34:18.

The whole thing creates a lot of 'table turning'.
-1:03:00 Suhan goes into a rage and starts breaking everything in her glass factory and gets REALLY angry at Cesur, blaming him for numerous things (wire under saddle, fire, 'ruining' her life). Well done!
-1:14:33 Now calm she says, in the end of this war, I will suffer. A second later he says, I will suffer too. She says, please stick with the intent of this marriage (punish my father). He promises not to repeat 'last night' (the intimacy). Sweet.
-1:34:40 After Suhan listens to Cesur's mom recount her marriage, Suhan is sad knowing how Fugan would despise her if she knew Suhan was Korludag's daughter. Suhan says to Shirrin, “Can Cesur forget everything [that my father has done] when he looks at me?”
-1:44:23; 1:45:30 She lays down on bed with his coat because it smells like him and makes her feel like he's there. She finds something in the pocket...
-2:01:44 Cesur hangs his father's paintings in his house.
-2:02:45; 2:06:02 Cesur and Suhan have a chat in a horse stall—she tells him she will not be home on her birthday, Feb. 14. He is clearly disappointed and puts something back in his pocket...and then back in the drawer.
-2:17:00 Korludag comes to Cesur and Suhan's door.
Episode 13
-Opening: Korhan catches Hulia conspiring with Jaida.
-6:24; 15:23 Suhan's father comes to their house to intercept the postman from delivering an important message. To cover himself, Korludag says he came to see Suhan because he missed her. He ends up leaving after a tense exchange. The whole thing upset Suhan. She wants to believe her father might come because he missed her, but in truth she knows he was lying, but just doesn't know what about. Cesur tries to comfort and reassure her, but she doesn't allow him. He's been trying to give her a ring, but every time he tries, things go sour between them.

-46:33 Korhan visits Suhan at work and pins some blame on Cesur. Suhan voices the painful situation she is in—wanting to believe both her father and Cesur because she loves them both. Korhan is Suhan's true ally. The only one who truly loves her with no ulterior motives.
-48:26 Cesur gets her employees to come back to work
-49:16 Cesur sees photos of Nazli on his camera and gets an idea..
-55:00 Cesur takes dinner to Suhan at her office and gives her the ring. She's very matter-of-fact when he gives it to her, but when she walks away, she looks at it and smiles so you know she is really pleased even though the didn't show him she was pleased.
-57:23; 1:03:17; 1:09:06 Korludag hires henchmen to vandalize the town and burn a building on Korludag's farm, then blames it on Cesur.
-1:12:00 Suhan is having a hard time accepting the truth about her father. Cesur tries to console and comfort her.
-1:18:00 Cesur's mother makes a comment about not wanting Cesur to surrender like his father. This makes Cesur wonder if his father really did commit suicide.
-1:22:00 Suhan goes to talk to her dad, and he basically says if you align yourself with Cesur, then you are not welcome here. Korhan takes her to the door and says, “If Cesur loves you, ask him to give up his revenge on our father.”
-1:30:00 Suhan burns her hand. After Cesur tenderly puts ointment on it, Suhan says, “If you love me, would you give up taking revenge?” After a long pause he
replies, “I don't love you.” She's devastated. He walks outside and takes deep breaths of the cold night air like he can't believe he said something so hurtful. [I can't figure out why he said it either! He's been telling her all along how much he loves her...]
-1:41:55;1:45:15; 1:47:13; 1:50:48; 1:55:05 Suhan sneaks into the attic at Korludag farm to look for the other half of the note written by Cesur's father that says, “I surrender.”
-1:56:50 Suhan is leaving to go stay by herself for a bit, and Cesur asks her the same question. She replies, “I don't love you.” Tears pool in his eyes.

-58:00; 59:39; 105:19 Cesur tells Suhan more 'hard' things about her Dad, then tentatively reaches for her hand. She listens and lets him caress her finger. (Previously when she heard 'bad news' about her father, she got very defensive and pulled away from Cesur.)
-1:13:00; 1:14:00; 1:16:45 Cesur and Suhan leave police station arm in arm. Driving home, he stops by side of road to calm himself. This time Suhan calms him. (Previously, he has been the one calming her.)
-1:20:20; 1:22:44; 1:31:28; 1:32:57; 1:35:22; 1:37:22 Her birthday party—she
says some things to Cesur that show how much she loves him. Cesur: “You loved me despite all the obstacles between us. Thank you, Suhan.” {{Kiss and hug}} Suhan: “I trust in us.” They are openly expressing love for each other and hope in their future.

-49:50; 1:05:00 Rifat in hospital.
-1:01:00; 1:12:30; 1:20:47; 1:21:30 Cesur visits Suhan at the glass house. They fuss a little, then he makes a deal with her about the ripped note. Cesur's half suggests his father committed suicide. Korhan and Jaida have the other half. He tells Suhan to read the other half, and if his father committed suicide he will not ask for his father's body to be exhumed and he will stop pursuing revenge on her father. He strokes her cheek in a very loving gesture, then leaves and they each press their palm to opposite sides of the closed door. It's like their way of trying/wishing they could be more connected. They're grieving for the pain between them. A poignant song plays in the background... Morphs into a montage of memories of them together that lasts for a few more minutes. Sweet.
-1:26:40; 1:32:25; 1:36:35; 1:38:00; 1:40:09; 1:42:52 Suhan reads the other half of letter.

-2:08:02; 2:14:10 At the glass house, Cesur scolds Suhan, but in truth he's jealous of her Pilates instructor. He finally says, “I missed you.” She says, “I missed you too.” He gets a text that with the autopsy report. Indeed his father was shot.
-A lot of back and forth between him and her. She is straddling a delicate fence. Her husband is hurting because he and his family were wronged. She is hurting because her father is the one under suspicion. If he gets what he wants, then she will be sad that her father is guilty. If her father is innocent, then her husband is sad that all his 'work' to prove her father was guilty was in vain and the wrong-doer has still not been brought to justice. It is a lose-lose situation.
-2:18:13 Jaida finds out she is pregnant for real.

-1:57:30 Bullant kisses Bano.
-2:09:27 Trial of Tashin Korludag; he gets out. (At 2:19:34, Kivanc's acting for the next 30 seconds is fantastic.)

-Lots of screen time for our couple in this episode. Very emotional—sad and beautiful at the same time. Some outstanding acting by Kivanc. If you could only watch one episode of the series, this might be the one to watch.
Episode 18

-2:04:25 Mrs Korludag (Adalet) confesses to the killings.
-One of the least captivating episodes because not much action between Cesur and Suhan.
Episode 19
-Opening: Three weeks later: Korludag and Suhan having breakfast. We learn that Korhan and Jaida are no longer living there (Korludag was furious at Korhan for making him 'confess' about the night of the murders). Suhan's divorce hearing is scheduled for that day. Cesur arrives with a megaphone and a message for Korludag....

Live like this in the middle?” He replies, “I can live with you and in the middle.”
-57:51; 1:04:29; 1:13:50 It all hits the fan between Korhan and Jaida about her fake baby.
-1:22:35 Suhan thinks Cesur has been shot and rushes to hospital. Short but sweet scene shows she still cares deeply for him, and he is deeply touched to see evidence that she still cares for him. (The expression on his face when he turns around and sees her is fantastic. If eyes could reach out, his do in these few seconds: 1:23:16 to 1:23:20.)
-1:30:31; 1:33:30; 1:38:21; 1:38:45 Cesur and Suhan meet for dinner to discuss his “conditions for divorce”-- Tango dance.

-2:13:50-End: Cesur shows up in divorce court and their divorce is finalized.

-25:00 Korludag humiliates Korhan in front of some workers and trashes him as a son. So mean! (So sad!)
-27:38 Suhan talking to Shirrin—more evidence that Suhan is not feeling so well....
-51:53 Suhan is staying at her family's hunting lodge and has a dream that Cesur tells her she will never get him out of her heart. He asks her not to leave the country. A very tender moment.

this." (Referring to her pregnancy.) Cesur knows something is up, he just doesn't know what.

-2:03:34-end Suhan goes for an abortion, and Cesur goes to stop her. He begs her to say she didn't do it. She says, “I did it.” Walking away she tears up but with a flashback that in reality she couldn't go thru with it and lied to Cesur.
-2:07:00-end Kivanc's acting reaction/ expression is gut-wrenching!

-1:05:52; 1:14:50 (Dance); 1:21:00; 1:23:43 (Asking hard questions); 1:30:50 (Dream); 1:36:44 Still hunting the night watchman, they crash a wedding and dance to song that expresses their situation. They have to share a hotel room and ask each other hard questions and get hard answers. Very sad.
-1:42:00; 1:50:50; 1:57:00; 2:01:22 They find the night watchman.
-1:55:48; 1:57:30; 2:04:13 Korludag kills Salih in a scuffle.

In this out-of-the-everyday situation, they are working together, and it is a reminder to both of them how much they love the other. He asks her again, “Why did you do this to us?” (referring to the abortion.) She considers revealing the truth, then thinks better and gets up and walks away.
-2:07:11 While bandaging his wound, she breaks down and says, “What would I do if something had happened to you?”
-2:10:58 Cesur watches CD and sees that Salih killed his mother. Police "raid" the lodge. Cesur takes Suhan “hostage,” but the prosecutor tells them they know Cesur is not the killer of Salih.

-1:41:01; 1:44:10; 1:47:48; 1:57:15 Suhan and Cesur go to her house in Istanbul. She tells him that her father is dying in a touching scene. They are confiding in each other more and more and not fighting so much. They understand each other and know that the other understands them better than anyone else.
-2:05:05 She says if my father wasn't dying, I'd be leaving. And staying is harder than leaving. He says, “Harder because of me? .... But we are no longer connected. You broke the connection when you killed our child.” His words cut deep. As she walks away she says, “You hate me, don't you.” [long pause] He replies, “I wish.”
-End: Reda takes Suhan to his [hotel] room and shows her the video of her father killing Salih. He tells her that she has to choose between her father and Cesur.
-One of the slower episodes. A bit overly melodramatic, some implausible stuff, and not enough focus on main couple.
Episode 25
-Opening: Cesur goes to Reda's room and finds Suhan there.
-9:15 Cesur and Suhan have a little talk by a lake.
-21:27 Adalet learns of Korludag's terminal illness.
-24:04 Cesur plots/captures Reda. I won't include all the timestamps as they are numerous and I thought this plotline was the most implausible of the whole show.
-25:45; 27:40; 31:50 Suhan tells her father she knows he killed Salih.
-47:31 Suhan dreams Cesur comes to the door and wants to whisk her away. She says she still has baby, and they are glowing with happiness. Then her father shoots Cesur (in the dream). 49:50—he makes a cute little salsa dancing move.
-53:30 He meets her by the lake after the bad dream—the same spot where he first declared his love to her on New Years Eve and quoted the love poem. He quotes more romantic poetry here, and it's just a beautiful scene. They clearly love each other, and the barriers are coming down.
-1:17:47 Adalet escapes from prison.
-1:19:19 Cesur kidnaps Reda.
-1:37:36 Suhan goes to Cesur's house and asks him if he knows where Reda is. They accuse each other of harboring secrets.
-1:49:00 Suhan tries to help Reda escape—as part of her fulfilling her promise to him.
-1:50:30 Suhan and Cesur have a huge argument over him kidnapping Reda. She begs him not to do this. “I miss this intelligent man!” His reply: “The previous Cesur doesn't exist anymore. He died with his mother.” Great scene.
-2:05:30; 2:07:45; 2:09:00 Reda's man, Turan, kidnaps Suhan for a “prisoner exchange.”
-2:18:56 Adalet meets Reda in the woods and threatens him with a gun.
-2:22:00 Cesur catches Suhan trying to make off the camera/video of Reda's time in his little prison. She suggests they destroy all the evidence showing they were there. He says he wants to watch it first to find out what she is hiding...
-Cesur and Suhan are slowly, one small step at a time, deciding they can't live without the other. But most of the surrounding action is so implausible and “coincidental,” it requires a lot of suspension of disbelief.

Episode 26
-Opening: Cesur is watching the video that shows Suhan “helping” Reda escape from Cesur's little jail cell. He demands an explanation from her, but she says (with much pain) that she can't tell him. She is straddling a fine line between trying to protect both her father and Cesur.
-4:55 We suspect that more happened in the woods with Adalet and Reda than we saw at the end of the last episode. 2:09:16 We see what happened to Adalet.
-30:54: 1:10:10 Cesur tells Kamal to keep an eye on Suhan—and let him know if Reda contacts her.

-1:09:19; 1:17:05 Reda 'forces' Suhan to have dinner with him.

-1:37:17 Cesur finds the evidence that will implicate Suhan's father—the evidence that Reda is holding over Suhan's head to keep her subservient to Reda.
-1:40:29 Suhan begs Cesur not to turn the CD in to the police and therefore implicate her father. “If you love me, please don't do it.”
-151:41; 1:54:32; 1:57:27; 1:57:27 He goes to police station to turn it in, but then can't do it. “For you it's worth doing the wrong thing.”
-1:47:30; 2:01:37; 2:03:30 Suhan finds out that her father's “incurable illness” is another deception. “These tests can't be yours, Papa, they are for a woman! …. How could a father make his daughter suffer so much on purpose? ...I lost the man I love for you!” Very powerful scene!
-2:09:16 We see what happened to Adalet.
-2:07:09; 2:13:07 Suhan writes/takes Shirrin a letter with the CD showing Korludag killing Shirrin's father. Suhan tells Shirrin, “You should decide what to do with the CD.”
-2:14:20-end Suhan tells Cesur she's still pregnant. He has a wonderful reaction—a big range of emotions with fantastic acting—and they have a tender moment. He says, “We should get married immediately.” She says, “No, not until I can see that you will be like the old Cesur and not like my father. That you will give up all this revenge.” It ends with him scowling as if he's thinking I can't/won't give up my revenge. **One of the best scenes of the show!
-**The implausible plotting seems to have ended.
Episode 27
-Opening; 5:39 Picks up where the last episode left off. Regarding her stipulation for them getting married she says, “You'll either become a father or a murderer. The choice is yours.” He eventually says, "I choose you but with the condition that you live with me so you can see where I go, who I am with, etc. Do not leave me without you.”
-9:45; 14:22; 15:46; 17:00; 24:20; 41:02 Suhan moves to Cesur's farm.
-27:23 Shirrin recounts to Suhan and Cesur how she took the CD to the prosecutor, but the CD got “lost” on the way.
-30:00 Shirrin and Suhan repair their relationship. Sweet scene.
-34:24; 36:53; 41:02 Suhan and Cesur tell Korhan she is pregnant.
-43:16 (Daily Motion Part II 1:05) Sweet and funny scene where Cesur convinces Suhan to share the bed with him. Makes me laugh every time I watch it!
-48:00 Suhan tells Sherrin that she had a beautiful dream that Cesur proposed to her in a field of flowers.
-1:05:32 (Daily Motion: Part II 23:13) Suhan has a sonogram, and Cesur's response is very sweet.

-2:23:54; 1:30:00 (DM: part III 5:38) Cesur proposes in field of yellow flowers. “I don't want anything more in life but you.”
-1:44:00 (DM: Part III 18:48) Cesur and Suhan are in bed, and Suhan has a great flashback montage of romantic moments of them together.
-1:49:00 (DM: Part III 24:20) Korludag shows Cesur a note from Reda to Salih with instructions how to kill Cesur's mother. Korludag says, "If you won't kill him [Reda], I will." For the first time, the two rivals are on the same side.
-1:58:00 – end (DM Part III 33:30) Cesur feels like he has no choice but to go deal with Reda. Suhan says, “If you walk out that door, you'll never see me again.” He turns around and walks out. Great acting!
**Lots of Cesur and Suhan in this episode. Some really great scenes. It's up there with Ep 17 as one of the best episodes.
Episode 28
-Opening; 4:36: Suhan crying that Cesur left to hunt down Reda.
-10:15; 13:07 Cesur finds Reda but he has flashbacks of Suhan and her pleading and he can't pull the trigger.
-12:01 Shirrin's mother stabs Korludag. He falls and hits his head.
-16:39; 18:50 Cesur goes back home to find Suhan wheeling her suitcase out—he says, "I didn't do it. I couldn't. All I could think about was you."
-18:09; 23:28; 25:59; 28:35; 30:14; 32:55; 35:27; 36:52 Hospital scenes--Korludag has a head injury. The doctor calls for blood, and Cesur volunteers to donate his O neg.
-38:17 Cesur says to Suhan, "Just as you love your father with all his mistakes, I am our son's father. Don't leave. Don't separate us, please."
-39:35; 44:32 Doctor tells Korhan his father lost his memory. Korhan and Suhan think it's another one of his father's deceptions.
-43:36 At hospital, Cesur gives Suhan a hug of support before she goes in to see her father.
-46:18; 51:15; 53:00; 57:00 Korludag's loss of memory causes a lot of awkward situations—everyone else knows what's happened in the last 5 years except him. He doesn't know who Cesur really is and thinks Cesur and Suhan are already married.
-1:05:33; 1:08:49; 1:12:38 (DM: Part II 19:20) Cesur moves to the Korludag farm to be with Suhan as she supports her father.
-1:50:00 Jaida takes Hulia's baby. Bullant holds it for ransom

-End—Last 1.5 minutes (DM: 42:28) Cesur and Suhan share words looking towards future. <Interrupted by a short scene of Reda in jail> Final 30 seconds or so is Cesur and Suhan embracing. Looks like a Christmas card picture.

-2:02:00; 2:10:04-end (DM: Part III 29:38; 37:40-end) Wedding--that ends in tragedy.
-2:04:00 Tashin goes to wedding venue and confronts Suhan. Scene was poorly done. There were guards everywhere—how did he get in? And Shirrin just let him in? We see a little of the father/daughter confrontation, but not much. Feels like they may have cut a lot.
Episode 30
-Opening Suhan is in the hospital, and Cesur is pacing with worry. He goes into her room and says some sweet things while she is sleeping/sedated.
-6:16 Shirrin tells Cesur that Korludag confronted Suhan just before the wedding and maybe that caused the near miscarry.
-13:24 Cesur storms to confront Korludag and “enlightens” the man about all his bad deeds, how he deceived his children, how they hate him, how he killed Salih. Cesur is in a rage. Great acting performance (even real sweat on the brow)!

-1:46:00 Bullant spills the beans about being rooked by Reda into doing mischief at Suhan's wedding.

-36:28 Korludag realizes that Adala escaped from prison so she could be with him because she thought he was dying. Now she is dead. So in a 'round about way, it is his fault, through his underhanded ways, he “killed” her. Korledug is definitely softening.
-41:18; 42:43 Bano visits Suhan and tries to poison her again and plant a camera in Cesur's house. Because she didn't “get the job done the first time,” Reda won't return her son until Bano succeeds in her task.

Episode 32

-DM: Part II 28:53 Reda in a mental institution.
-DM: Part II 30:43 Hulia calls Jaida from prison and asks her to be her son's mother. Heart-wrenching! Then Jaida sees a 'vision' of Korhan who comforts her says he's proud of her kindness. Very sweet.
--DM: Part II 34:46 Bullant in jail, talking to his mother—is remorseful for the first time. Very moving.
-DM: Part II 44:07 Doctor tells Cesur he has to decide to take the child's life or risk Suhan's life. He chooses life for both. As scene ends, timeline skips to four months later.
