Zehra sits on the bed and cannot sleep thinking of the times Ömer was close and the kiss on the lips imminent. She feels she cannot wait either. She is annoyed thinking he is having fun with his friends and she is here waiting for him breathlessly. She blows out the candles and calls herself a fool.

Çetın takes out a handmade keychain from his pocket and gives it to Salim. Salim is surprised but does not ask too many questions. He feels for him and takes him in and gives him some tea and leftovers from lunch. Çetın tells him that he has done horrible things and unforgiveable ones. Salim tells him not to lose hope and forgiveness will come if he is sincere. He lets him sleep in the workshop. Canan is going home alone at night and is scared. But it is only Salim coming home late too.

Ömer arrives and sees Zehra asleep. He sees her silk robe on the bed and all the blown out candles and looks at his watch and is upset. He realizes she had been waiting for him. He sits beside her and caresses her hair and kisses her cheek. He changes and comes back and looks at her some more. Something is on his mind. He covers her and goes out. He goes into the study and takes out a photo from the drawer. It is a photo of Bahşende meeting Jülide. He has spent the night meeting with Mohsen who has given the photo to Ömer and told him Jülide was forced to meet with Bahşende. He has told Ömer that Arcan and Bahşende are in touch. Ömer is trying to put this picture together.

Zehra gets up in the morning and sees Ömer is not there. She wonders if he is still out. She is upset. Can he have stayed out all night? She does not want to believe it. She gets dressed and goes to the study. He is not there. She goes to the guest room. He is sleeping there. She stands over him and is annoyed talking to herself. Where is your consideration; are you not a married man? You should have known I did not want you to go. You; the one who knows everything? You just know how to say no to me! Ömer wakes up and says what do I know? Zehra hedges around things and says it is of no importance. Ömer talks sweet and she tries to be a bit distant. Ömer asks her to take her cardigan and when she wants to take it, he pulls her over and holds her tight. She relishes it. Ömer kisses her neck and tells her that he loves her. She is satisfied.

Ömer goes to Bahşende's room and asks her about meeting with Jülide and Arcan. She says I met with her to get her out of my family's life and contacted Arcan to find that woman. Ömer tells him you do not need to protect us and when you meet with that woman you betray my father's memory. She justifies her moves with indignation.

Salim goes to Aysil's bakery to get a few things for himself and Çetın. Şükran is happy to see him there. Çetın has brewed tea and is waiting for Salim. There are some scenes that intimate that Çetın might want to steal money from Salim or hurt him. But Çetın remains docile and appreciative of Salim's kindness.

Ömer wonders about his mother's intentions. Zehra brings coffee into the study and reads about Arcan Kesser and that he is Ömer's father's old partner and that he was behind Kervancioglu Holding's losing of their last bid. Ömer suddenly comes in and before Zehra can ask anything, he takes the files and goes to the office saying he is in a hurry. Zehra is worried. Ömer goes to the office and with Defne they go over all the bids they have lost recently and see a trace of Kesser.

At the bakery they are expecting a blogger to come and check the fare. Canan identifies a young man as the blogger and they begin giving top notch service to him. Another older man comes as well. Aysil must go. They ignore the others a bit and give overt attention to the man they think is the blogger and then realize that the old man is the actual blogger and he leaves unhappy with the service. Canan feels bad for ruining the opportunity.

Nihat meets with his girlfriend and is mad that she keeps calling him. She says I know your situation, but I love you and need you. Nihat says I want you to stop calling. She says ok honey. I will call whenever you ask. Now let me show you a good time.

Mohsen is driving Jülide with another one of Kesser's goons. They are going to sequester her somewhere. Mohsen stops the car somewhere and says he must go to the washroom. He takes long so the goon goes looking for him. Mohsen comes and helps Jülide get away.

Özge comes and Ömer asks her why she did it. She says I did it because my sister is sick and Arcan Kesser offered me money for her treatments and then threatened to kill me if I did not do his bidding. She says I must stay alive to take care of my sister because she has no one else. Ömer is upset and forgives her. While Ömer is with Özge, Zehra calls but he does not answer. Zehra is upset again. How busy could you be, she wonders.

Zehra goes to the study. Ömer is there. He has just returned. Zehra asks how busy was he that he could not even send a text message. Ömer says it seems I have ignored my sweet wife too much. He says I am very sorry and the sweet talk begins again. He embraces her.
