Mert asks if anything is wrong. Ömer is silent. Mert leaves reminding him of the meeting with the Americans. Ömer is mad. Ömer wants to cancel all his meetings and then realizes it is crazy and stops himself. He calls Zehra wondering if she is with that guy. Zehra is getting ready with thoughts of her little sister growing up so fast. Ömer calls and Zehra without checking who has called starts saying: Sweetie, I was just thinking about you. In fact, just wanted to call when you called. I am still at home. Ömer is upset and does not say anything. She responds to the silence saying Yasemin; are you there? Ömer is relieved to realize she was addressing her sister. Ömer says I just called so see if you left, I can send you a car. She says there is no need and I am not ready yet. He asks why? She says I feel like I am still not ready to see my little sister get married. Ömer is moved by her feelings. Hediye comes and takes the red dress for ironing. Zehra finishes off with Ömer. She feels the call was a bit strange. Ömer says she is home and puts the note in his jacket pocket.

Şükran gives money to Koray and tells him to go get the flowers and chocolate. He goes to Yasemin first and says everything happened so fast, I should have done this earlier. He gives her an unpretentious ring on his knees and asks her to marry him. She accepts and is flattered by it. Mehtap sends Beton to see if Ömer has gone to the address. She calls the office and realizes he is in meetings. Ömer is occupied in the meeting and does not really listen to what is going on. He thinks it could all be a lie. He remembers all the things that indicate otherwise. The marriage licence, the flowers, etc. He is about to leave when Demir comes. Ömer gives him the note. Demir says you cannot believe this. Ömer says that guy has sent her money and now this. He asks Ömer to talk with Zehra. There is someone who wants to ruin your relationship. Don't go to that house. Talk to Zehra.

Zehra in her red dress is praised by the family members. Zehra goes leaving Alev and Cevriye to bicker. Alev tries to insinuate that Ömer did not concern himself with Zehra and the new business they are starting with Mert is of more importance to him.

Leyla and Zehra arrive and help Yasemin get ready. Salim is moved by her little girl preparing to get engaged. Koray and Şükran arrive. They are both nervous. Yasemin serves the salty coffee to Koray. The groom to be has to suffer the bad tasting coffee from the bride to be's hand to show that his love is true. Koray chases it down with the glass of water. Şükran asks for Yasemin's hand for Koray. Salim agrees on the condition that the marriage is left for when she finishes her studies.

Alev is worried that Hilmi Yilmaz will be annoyed that she is not involved Mert's business. He calls and Alev is upset with his threats. At home, Ökkeş takes leave to go do the village house's work. Müzeyyen says Ömer asked her to let him know he should take his time and finish what he has to do.

Mehtap sees Ömer has not come so she calls muffling her voice. She says your wife has come; where are you? Ömer says I am going to find you. She guffaws and says she said she has gone to her sister's engagement, but she is done there and now she is in the arms of her lover. Ömer says shut up!! But he is affected. He calls. There is no answer and doubt takes him over. Mehtap sends Beton to Zehra's place. Zehra is at the door telling Leyla how the engagement has brought back the lie she is living with. Leyla clams her and goes. Beton sends a message to Zehra that seems like it is her mother asking her to go to this address. She gets her things and runs there.

Mert and Alev arrive at the house at the same time. Alev calls Mert from behind. She asks about Ömer and whether he was upset. You know him better that anyone, Alev tells him. Mert says yes I am good at knowing people especially those who hide behind a mask but I do not use this skill to pry into people's private lives. She says what a shame we are not working together, I could have learned so much from you. Mert says even if we don't work together, I can give you a lesson or two in understanding people. But to do that you have to first face the mirror and know yourself.

Ömer is driving there saying how you can do this to me. Demir calls him and he does not answer. Demir is in Mahaleh wants to see Leyla. He hopes Ömer is not doing the wrong thing. He is on the phone when Şükran arrives and takes him inside for tea.

Mehtap is outside the house. Ömer arrives. He turns back once but again goes back. He finds the key in the pot and goes in. He sees the photographs and Zehra's book on home remedies and he reads the letter allegedly from Yener to Zehra, his love, apologizing for not being there for her sister's engagement. He is mad and slams Zehra's photo frame. Zehra arrives in a cab. He hides behind the wall and Zehra comes in, sees the photos and is in shock. She turns around and is startled by Ömer. What are you doing here, she says. He says I have been inconsiderate barging in on your love nest. He is about to leave when she stops him and says what are you saying? He says stop, don't deny it. The marriage licence, money from him in your account, meeting with his sister and now this house. It's enough. I don't have to put up with the lies of a shameless person like you. She screams; enough! And slaps him.
