Müge has been hit in the arm. The police arrive. Officer Murat arrests Müge. They had Ömer under surveillance due to the recent episode with Piton and the mafia investigation in that regard, so they had followed the last signal from his phone.

Can takes them home. Bahşende scolds Ömer and Zehra for taking off like that and being late for breakfast. Ömer is is not impressed and tells her they should have eaten. Zehra remains apologetic. Bahşende also tries to criticize their unannounced getaway with Asya asking if they had a good time. Ömer says it was wonderful and tells Zehra they should do it more often. Bahşende is further annoyed.

At the breakfast table Bahşende snaps as Zehra for taking the cup of tea from Susan rather than letting the server set it beside her plate as she should. She insists that these are important proprietaries that should be followed. Ömer snaps back saying we do not burden our lives with boring rules. She responds rules of courtesy create order and prevent chaos. Ömer comes back saying within the unique space of the family, we can avoid chaos with pleasant behaviour and tolerance. Everyone at the table, other than Bahşende is pleased with Ömer's statements.

Bahşende then asks about Zehra's education as she would like to get to know her better. Zehra says she is a high school graduate and used to work as a secretary. Bahşende makes a big deal about her lack of higher education credentials. Ömer says degrees and diplomas do not describe a person adding that he has met many highly educated persons who were not even worth a single nail of Zehra.

Ayşe also talks about Zehra's talent in drawing and sketching and her handbag designs and how they are in business together. Nihat also talks about her professional presentation at the Board meeting. Bahşende is shocked that Zehra was a Board member who has joined the meeting. Zehra asks them not to exaggerate in her usual self-effacing manner.

Zehra then sees Ömer to the door. She thanks him for being there for her. He apologizes for not paying attention to her warnings about Müge. Zehra walks out and remembers her moments with Ömer in the cabin and is happy. She walks to Hediye who is tending the flowers and reminiscing about Ökkeş. She joins her in her work and consoles her about her husband's loss. Bahşende sees Zehra consorting with Hediye in this manner and does not approve of the lady of the House acting in this intimate manner with the housekeeper.

Sabah is mad at Kerem for thinking her parents could not be her real parents and blasts off.

At the office Officer Murat tells Ömer that the police want to investigate Kervancioglu financial books because the Piton affair appears to involve mafia hands in the business world. Ömer is shocked. He is angry with Zehra for getting the business into such a scandal.

In the evening, Bahşande again tries to insinuate that Zehra is not acting in the correct manner by not calling Ömer and not asking him why he did not come to dinner. Zehra says he said he had a lot of work and she did not want to bother him. Ömer arrives at this moment and sits beside her and kisses her in front of his grandma saying he is such a lucky man to have such a considerate wife adding that he would be ready however to put any work away at her simplest beck and call. Bahşende is further miffed.

Nihat tries to talk with Ayşe about the Müge situation but she keeps avoiding him. He finally tells her and when she realizes she becomes really mad that she had not been informed of it from the start. Nihat tells Ömer that Ayşe is very upset with him. Ömer tells him to hang in there and give her some time.

In the morning Zehra takes the mail to Ömer in order to see him. She realizes something is afoot and asks what's wrong. His concerns get the better of him and he says because of her actions, the Company is under investigation by the police. She says you keep insinuating I might have acted in bad faith or purposefully tried to cause harm. Don't you realize how you hurt me with these insinuations. She leaves.

Bahşende goes into the study to speak with Ömer in private. She says that he must divorce his wife right away.
