The head physician has come to see Ahmet. And tells the
guards that they must inform Reyhan agha that he must see the Sultan at once.
Ahmet awakens to find Anastasia is missing so he calls out
her name, but Dervish arrives suddenly and telling him there is something he
must know.
Anastasia is in the corridor and enters the trap door.
Ahmet meanwhile has
exited his room and is in a hurry to get somewhere.
Anastasia is going through the secret halls and she opens a door and finds a a lattice where
she can see Reyhan agha enter with the physician who has come to see the
Sultan. Reyhan is saying that if it was poison, it will be obvious
very quickly in the beginning, and how can they prove it to Ahmet, and the
physician replies that if he were to take a spoon now , nothing
would happen but in 40 days it would become effective and that the person would
die from this poison very slowly, and that Ahmet’s father has died from this
poison slowly. Reyhan asks if he is certain and the doctor replies that he gave
some of the mediciations to his dog and the dog died after 40 days. Reyhan agha says who could dare do this? The
doctor says I know
who the traitors are and the Padishah must find out because
he is next (his life is in danger).
Reyhan kills the doctor and Ana has closed the door making noise and of
course guess who is behind her.
Ahmet has gone to the tower and sees the Janissaries have
marched to the door. Ahmet asks what
they want and Dervish replies if they don’t hand over the ascension gift wage,
then they will burn down the palace on their heads.
Reyhan grabs Anastasia despite her fighting him off and
eventually beats her and she hits her
head and falls unconscious.
The palace doors are not holding well and Ahmet is watching,
as the janissaries shout, we want the padishah! Safiye says basically that even
if you chain the dog’s neck there is no point,
the one who gives it meat, it will bite him when he doesn’t give meat. 9
We see Reyhan in his room and the dead doctor and Anastasia
at his feet.
Ahmet says it is time to show the Janissaries their limits
/teach them a lesson, and Safiye says
that the one who acts in anger will be the one who will be harmed, and
that in this state of affairs, if we do not
deal with them according to palace procedures then they will burn the
palace over our heads. Ahmet says his
servants would not dare do such a thing.
Safiye responds then look carefully, do you not see how angry your
servants are? They did this in past as well,
did you forget? Your father gave them what they wanted and this is how
he saved our lives. Ahmet says, how
could I forget they took two aghas heads
(killed 2 people) Gazanfer and osman agha. Safiye responds that they even tried to overthrow
the Padishah. So, the smart individual learns a lesson from the past – the
ascension gift must be handed out immediately.
Ahmet says he wishes it were possible , but the treasury is scattered in
different places right now. Safiye says,
well what is my treasury waiting around for? If you wish, I can have it
distributed it once., and at that time the soldiers will calm down. Ahmet asks,
what do you want in return Sultanim? She says go back on your decision to send
me away and I shall open my treasury.
The door is opened from inside and the Bostanci (palace
guards) stand ready, the rioters say we do not want trouble, we want to see the
Padishah and get what we are owed. Zulfikar agha tells the Palace guards to
lower their swords that the matter will be handled without spilling blood
right? And he looks at Ebdi agha the head of the riorters, who replies that ‘if
we get what we want, then yes no blood spilling.” The Palace guards make way and Ebdi says
“march, march to the Divan I humayun!
Meanwhile, Dervish asks Ahmet why he refused Safiye Su;tan’s
offer and Ahmet says, what save the Sultanate and honour of the state by
lowering my neck? No one can put conditions on me! Dervish says, I recommend
that you stay calm and give the best decision.
Ahmet says my decision is obvious – send word to the other divisions,
all of the rioters will die by the sword. Dervish says there is no time for
that, as they are already agitated to fight, and they cannot take back control
of both the Sipahis and Janissaries.
Handan meanwhile arrives, worried about her son. Safiye says
that she had opened her personal treasury for her, but he turned the matter
into one of pride and refused it.
The pashas are present. One of them shouts “ do not do this
aghas, the Padishah gave his word, when the treasury from Egypt arrives, you
will get your ascension throne gifts.
The head of the sipahi rioters says that they are at the end
of their patience, they want their rights.
Another pasha says, go back to your barracks, let everything be handled
in peace, without blood shed. The head of the janissary rioters says “there is
no return! There is no return to our barracks without getting what is our
right!” Another pasha (kapudan pasha)
says, aren’t you getting it? There is nothing here yet (no money), what now,
are you going to take our lives?” The
sipahi leader says, yes you understood well, many heads will roll in this
square, pray that yours is not one of them! The Kapudan pasha says how dare you,
you great cuckhold (spineless)! The Janissary rioter turns to the sipahi and
says, our fight is not with the pashas, either the Padishah will give us our
right, or he will give up the throne!” They continue marching
Meanwhile, Dervish tells Ahmet that they must go turn back and go, if necessary to the
Sarayburnu (there is a way out) and
Ahmet says, what if nexessary? As in
should run away? Dervish says there is another way (meaning take Safiye
Sultan’s offer) but Ahmet says no, he will not do that. Then he says, get my throne ready, I will
emerge at the Ayak Divan (the place
where traditionally the people’s complaints would be heard by the Sultan.” Stones are being thrown. Also, Reyhan agha is preparing to throw Anastasia
into the sea.
Dervish asks Ahmet if he can meet with the rioters first. A
worried Ahmet prays to God.
Reyhan agha throws Anastasia into the water and says “tell
your worries to the fish now” Anastasia is able to make a hole in the sack and
she rises up, imaging her father saying my love is a miracle for you, do not
give up and she reaches her hand forward and is pulled up - Golge has saved her
life.
Dervish exits through the doors and speaks and says it is
Sultan Ahmet’s ferman that everyone should hear and know that the ascension
gifts are going to be distributed and whoever does not believe in these
words, and continues to rebel should not
doubt that there head will certainly be taken. If they were to accept their error and return
back to their barracks, then they will earn their great Padishah’s forgiveness
and they will not have any action against them. “ The sipahi leader shouts
saying that their patience has grown thin, all they are hearing is “today or
tomorrow” and months have passed. “We want our right!”
Ahmet peeks through a hole at what is going on outside. The
Janissary riot leader (for now we’ll call him bad janissary so we don’t confuse
him with the others) says the arrow has left the bow and that the Janissaries
shall not return until they get their right. Just then, Zulfikar agha shouts
saying, “ since when is your word the word of the Janissaries? Do you not know,
our padishah Efendi is the head Janissary! Is there anything in our way of life
that states we take a sword to our own brother (meaning the Sultan)?” The soldiers respond, “no there is not!” The
bad Janissary says “ someone who withholds and usurps what is rightfully ours
is not from us! (Hit) Break down the doors! Either the Padishah will come out,
or the Padishah shall go!“
A religious man enters just then, and shouts “aghas!”
(historically, this man was Ahmet’s mentor Sheykh whom he followed)
The harem girls see Anastasia as Golge has brought her, and
Reyhan agha is shocked seeing her.
Cennet calls for them to send word to the female doctor and to get the
hospital ready to take her.
Meanwhile, the religious man walks and people give him way
calling him Sheyh Efendi. Aziz Mahmut Hudai. They lower their swords.
The Sheyh speaks, “ turn and look around you. Did our God
create this beautiful world with anger and hate? You must knock on the door
with love and with respect….those who obey their Emir (leader), obeys me. Those who go against their leader, it is as
if they have gone against me, said our noble Prophet. Our Emir, the Padishah has given you a
promise, either you heed his word and go back to your barracks, or you go
against him and be ruined. Zulfikar says to the Sheyh that “it is clear that our servitude is to our
Padishah, the Janissary are willing to await for the ascension gift, right
aghas?” The Janissaries shout agreement.
The Sipahi leader says fine, we are willing as well, but if the promise
is not kept then certainly we will be taking account. They tall sheath their swords and turn away. Ahmet
is pleased.
Meanwhile, Handan tells Safiye that it would seem like she
wanted to help Ahmet, but in reality she just wanted to make a deal with him in
order to stay in the palace, but that it was useless, and soon she will go to
the Palace of Tears. Safiye responds saying “oh an astrologer (fortune teller)
is here (to tell me what could happen to me) but no one can know what will
happen tomorrow.” Handan says : “Well, I am not telling you what could happen,
but what will happen! Your era has come to an end…now my era has begun”
Ahmet meanwhile is frustrated and says to Dervish that the
soldiers march on him, rather than doing their duty and marching on
revolters and that their loyalty is
nothing. Handan says things happen, but thank God you always have loyal
servants like Dervish beside you to support you. Ahmet asks: “Who was that man
who came suddenly?” Dervish replies that it is a respected scholar in all of
Istanbul, named Aziz Mahmut Hudai. Ahmet
smiles and says God heard my prayers and sent him here…He sent him here to
protect me.
Meanwhile Cennet tells the doctor to make sure she cures
her, she is precious and if something happens they’ll be in trouble. Then, Reyhan agha enters the room.
Safiye says that Ahmet is as stubborn and proud as a Sultan
should be and also very intelligent and in his future, he will be a good ruler.
..as long as he obeys me.
Dervish tries to kill Anastasia but in that moment Ahmet has
entered so Reyhan pretends to fix her pillow and the doctor says the doctors
have tried but she still has not awoken. Ahmet asks how this has happened and
Dudu says that she does not know, but that Golge hatun saved her from the water and it is
apparent she had wanted to run away. Reyhan adds that an agha who did not know
her has tried to punish her by throwing her in the water. Dervish asks who that could be and Dudu adds
that Golge did not see who has thrown her. Ahmet asks how does this happen
while a bird cannot fly without Reyhan knowing. Reyhan says while the trouble
happened with the soldiers the commotion made everything confusing. Dervish
calls for Golge hatun.
Meanwhile, Safiye is speaking to her pasha who says
that leaving Handan on one side, they
must be wary of Dervish actually because
he is the one pitting Ahmet against her.
Safiye says she has neither seen Handans or Dervishes, the only thing
she sees is her grandson’s treatment and disrespect of her. She gives a letter
to be sent to the Grand Vizier, saying that Ahmet will listen to his words.
Dervish is interviewing Golge and saying that she saw the
man from far away getting away and that she hurried to save her. Ahmet says she
will rewarded. Cennet informs Ahmet that Ana is waking up. She asks where she
is and he says in the palace and that Golge saved her life. Ahmet asks her who
did this to her. She says she does not
remember, I do not know what happened. Ahmet asks how she cannot remember and
Dudu suggests it’s probably because of the effect of everything on her. Ahmet
says, Nasya, they said you tried to run away and an agha caught you and
Asks if this is true if she wanted to run away. She asks I
do not know if this is true, but I did want to run away. Ahmet tells everyone to get out. Dervish
corners Reyhan agha outside and says I don’t know but is there something that I
should I know? Reyhan says no, what could there be? He is relieved when Dervish
walks away.
Ahmet tells Ana he prays before he goes to bed and when he
awakes to be able to see the sunrise again.
He keeps one eye always open and one ear on the door., an.d one hand at
his dagger And that for the first time
when he was with her, he didn’t have to do these things because she was with
him, her breathe her smell…that they were together all night but in the morning
she was no longer there. She left. She holds his hand and he says, I find out
now that you have run away, you left me and run away.
Then Ahmet exits and tells Reyhan that she is under his
protection if she tries to run away or if something happens to her he will take
his head.
At night Mustafa visits Ahmet and he is kind of scared at
first . Are you afraid of me, Ahmet asks, and Mustafa says no, he is afraid of
the Celats (executioners). Ahmet tells him not to be afraid it was all a bad
dream and now they all woke up and it has all passed. Then he tells him you are a brave boy.
Cennet arrives in the harem with Ana and Mahfiruze laughs
and says why did you save her from the water?
Another girl says, Cennet kalfa how did it happen? They say she ran
away? Cennet says she does not remember anything. Ana goes to Golge and says you saved me. Then
she pulls Golge aside and says I remember everything. I was afraid, I could not say it. Someone will kill me if I
saw it. Not only me. Reyhan agha enters
and calls Golge and asks how Ana is and if she remembers anything. Ana is afraid and says she is very tired.
Shahin Giray is with Mehmet Giray saying he just saw Reyhan
agha asking if they need anything. Shahin replies haha the padishah has so many
worries, but he makes sure we are not forgotten to be treated well. Mehmet asks
if they are invited to the palace. Shahin
says yes, we will go at an appropriate time, as you know for my delivering Sh. Mustafa
I have a right to ask for anything.
What do you say, my brother? Are you ready to become the Han of Crimea?
Mehmet says, Shahin since you were a child, your dreams were to become the Han
of Crimea and now you are telling me it is my turn? To what do I owe this? Are
you testing me? Or is there other things in your mind? Shahin says why would I
test you, I have no doubt about your loyalty to me. Mehmet says what is greater,
more important than the Hanate of Crimea? Shahin says, the world…is bigger than
Crimea. Mehmet says the throne you have your eyes on is the Ottomans, it is not
a possibility just a fantasy. Shahin says, what makes rulers kings is their
dreams, otherwise neither would Alexander would have been Great, nor Timurlane, nor would Suleyman have
been magnificent.
Meanwhile, Handan tells Dudu she should send a different
woman every night, not just Mahfiruze so that at least one of them can give
good news (of a child). Dudu tells her
not to worry. Halime then arrives and handan says I have no time, whatever you
have to say, hurry and say it. Halime says that you spared my son’s life, you
have gifted me the world. Handan says
Our Hunkar is the one who did it, and God willing you will know the value of
this. Halime wants to speak alone with
Handan and when Dudu leaves she says “I came for this reason, since my child
has been spared, I would like to show my loyalty. Handan says these are huge
words for someone who tried running from the palace the other day. Halime asks if she had done the same thing
for her own son, and does she not do the same right now, saving Ahmet from
every bad thing. Handan tells her to
spit out what she wants to say. Halime says we have an open enemy…Handan says
Safiye Sultan, Halime nods. She says, “ with your power and my intelligence and
what I know…no one would be able to stop us. Im not trying to brag about myself, but this
is the truth.“ Handan gets up and says, I won that war a long time ago, Safiye
Sultan is exiled; she will be going to the palace of Tears soon. Halime asks
her if she believes what she says., and that if Safiye will truly leave. Halime says, and this is why you need me. If
I know Safiye Sultan as well as I do, she will try her best to send you off as
hard as you are trying to send her. Handan says, “ You may leave.”
Mustafa plays and finds Anastasia and says look Im going to
go all the way to Vienna, and Ana says won’t you be afraid? Ana says I wish you
could come with me, you can take me to my home. Mustafa says I cant take you,
its prohibited. Halime enters and as she
is walking she says look who has become Valide sultan, her servant says stay
away, we got away with our lives with
difficulty. Halime says, yes today we survived, but what about tomorrow? I will
tell you, the birth of a Shehzade would mean death for my son. And that means sleep is forbidden for us.
In the market place, Mehmet Giray is in a room and meets
with his love, she says she has very little time because her mother will notice
her absence. Mehmet says that he wonders how he will live without seeing her.
He gives her a necklace and according to Solomon Efendi the jeweler, it is
jewels like no one else has, just like
you. She replies saying that the future has sadness not happiness for them. He
says what could be sadder than separation from you. She says, but if our
relationship is exposed, we shall lose our lives. He puts the necklace on her and after a brief
moment she says I must go. He says, I was lost in a forest, it was a great
forest, I didn’t know where to go…when I would go I would find myself in the
same spot, I was goin gin circles, the night enveloped me, like the whole
forest was marching against me. She asked how he was saved, he says, Shahin
saved me. I thought the night would
never end, that I would never find my way out, but I saw, I saw that as dark as the night is the sun
certainly will rise. She says I am not as strong as you, please stop. He kisses
her hand and lets her go. But Shahin
caught him. He says the secret you are hiding has escaped, so it means Fahriye
Sultan? He shakes his head.
Anastasia is with Safiye Sultan writing a letter of thanks
for a pendant she has been gifted. Anastasia asks in Italian if the letter is
going to Maria de Medicci. Safiye says
that her Italian is not bad, and it is clear her family has raised her
well. They go to the terrae and Ana
looks at Ahmet but he goes away. Safiye
remarks that Handan sends a different woman every night. Safiye says, and praise to God, our grandson
has taken after his grandfather, he does not send away any Cariye, so soon we
shall have a new prince in our palace.
Anastasia says that Ahmet has been mad at her for days. That he doesn’t
want her. Safiye tells her she has a
saying, to capture love, it is the nicest outfit, and if she wishes to run, it
is the safest boat.
Meanwhile, Alex is fiddling with the ribbon and the other
guy that is from that girl we found on the way, she gave it to you right? Fine,
I won’t tell you where they have taken her. Alex wants to know so the guy tells
him that the guy was from the palace and they took her to the palace of the
Sultan. Alex turns to his little friend and asks him, you know Istanbul, so you
know which palace right? He says the biggest palace, the one of the Sultan, can
you show me where it is?
Anastasia is awoken to get ready because Ahmet awaits her.
She gets ready but ishe comes across Reyhan agha who says “you will come with
me.” She says, but they said the Padishah wants to see me. Reyhan says, but our
Padishah is waiting in the tower for you.
She follows him, and she sees
Dervish there. She goes forward even though she afraid. Then she finds him there, he says I broke
your sleep right? He says don’t be afraid I just wanted to see you. She says, but you are mad at me, I tried to
run away, that is how it strated, I won’t lie . He opens the door and shows her
the city – this is Istanbul, the other name Constantinople. If you want we can go out, if you see it, I
am certain you will love it. If you love
it, this city will become yours. This
palace will become your home. And you?
Do you love it? You are unhappy, like me. He says,the era has changed. I am the
padishah, what you see and do not see
-all are mine. I am yours too,
right? Your property, a slave. Did I
hurt you, was I bad to you. She says, you dnot not understand, you do not make
me sad. You are a good person, and there
are many girls here they all want you. What is important is who I want. She says, you want them, every night one
comes to your room, let me go. He says, I just want you Nasya, only you. You are the moon faced, Padishah of my
slaves, you are my precious. They watch the sunrise together.
Meanwhile, Alex’ little friend Hassan is being bullied to
wash a kaftan and he puts it in manure and the bully starts hitting him but
Alex arrives and says he is your brother Davut, what did Zulfikar agha say, we
are all brother. Stay away from Hassan.
Hassan says to Alex you didn’t have to help me haha, I could have saved myself.
Meanwhile, a man named Mustafa agha has come, and he says
you have to call me Hujja because I went to Hajj pilgrimage. They talk about
how Egypt was and Mustafa agha says it is like heaven but I heard things happened
here, but anyway, I have returned.
Handan is speaking to Mustafa agha who says he would have
brought the stars for her. And he says I am so happy to see you. Handan tells
him how hard it was, the only thing left was the treasury from Egypt and now
that has come. Mustafa agha says the treasury has not come. Handan is worried.
Ahmet asks why the treasury has not come; they say the
pirates threaten the waters. Dervish asks how? Which pirates? Yavuz Ali pasha ,
the grand vizier, says that in the black sea they are attacking all ships, so
we had to send the treasury by road. Ahmet says, how can I deliver my promise
to the soldiers who just the other day, were at my door? How will I say no to
them? Will they not say I tricked them?
Meanwhile Safiye Sultan has arrived to speak to some pashas,
among them the grand vizier. She says he
has been loyal and he can ask for whatever he wants. He says he is holding the
treasury for a while, and whenever she chooses he will have it sent for. The other pasha tells her there are loyal
soldiers to her, and that even if the Sultan is late in payment, she has power
over the soldiers, to stop them from causing real trouble. She tells them to be
careful, because they will go through fire tomorrow but she will decide who burns
and who doesn’t.
Meanwhile Mustafa pasha says that the grand vizier didn’t
listen when he suggested they bring along the treasury, and Dervish says it
means the vizier is still loyal to Safiye Sultan just like all the other
pashas. Ahmet asks about the letter Mustafa agha sent about the murder of his
father and the agha says yes he was fine and all of a sudden was ill, and Ahmet
comments that they should find the doctor because they haven’t heard from him
for a while now. Handan says Ahmet has to worry about tomorrow because the
soldiers won’t get what they want, and how will they control them? Dervish
replies that he can visit the janissary
barracks and can take some precautions. Ahmet says he will go with him, he
needs a breather first.
Dervish says to Handan he can see how worried she is, she
says prevent Ahmet from going to the barracks, and that from all four corners
dangers are coming. Dervish says do not worry,
whoever tries will have to answer to me. She says, his strength has
always given her courage.
Halime notices about Dervish and says look at Dervish who
has taken both Sultan and his mother under his sway.
Ahmet goes to the solders barracks and they are sorry they
did not prepare for his arrival they did not know he would come so suddenly,
but Ahmet says I purposely came without word, the matter I wish to speak of
with you is grave.
Alex notices that the ribbon is gone and he goes crazy
looking for it and then he thinks Davut has gotten it. He goes looking for
him. Davut is smiling and he has the
ribbon.
Meanwhile, Dervish says that the treasury has not come yet,
and that it will come soon, and there are pirates in the black sea so for
safety sake they had to reroute it for that reason and that the time has come
to show their loyalty. They say they will be loyal. Meanwhile, they heal Alex
telling Davut he will kill him and they start fighting in the middle of the
Meydan. Alex is thrown off Davut and Zulfikar tells him to behave the Sultan is
here. Ahmet says, open the sand pit I want to practice fight with the acemi.
Ana sees Cennet says my name is Cennet, not Cinnet, meaning Paradise, and Ana
says yes, paradise like you. Ana says I
have a letter for my parents here send this as well. Cennet says oh you think
me a messenger pigeion, but she takes it. Reyhan arrives looking all creepy.
The pit is opened and Alex is warned, be careful and know
who you are against, do not lose your manners. The fighting starts and Alex keeps falling down, but Alex sees the
ribbon and then things change and he pushes the Sultan to the ground, Ahmet slaps him. Zulfikar says forgive him,
he doesn’t know the rules; he will be punished according to rules. He is taken
to the kitchens and says I forgot it was the padishah in front of me. He is
taken the punishment place and made to slide down into a cellar.
Ahmet arrive sin the palace and informed about the doctor
and that he has disappeared. Ahmet says , that means he was the traitor, but
Safiye’s agha Nasuh, says but the last they heard of him, he had come to
the palace to see you. Ahmet realizes that someone has killed him off. Dervish
tells Nasuh to mind his own business and go back to Safiye, when he asks why
they are looking for the doctor. Nasuh tells him to watch out.
Mehmet finds Shahin in the pub and he says please lets talk
finally. Shahin says I have been
thinking for days, but can’t get it. I have put my life in danger to protect
you for years but you throw that away on a woman. Mehmet says, she is not just
any women. Shahin says, yes that is obvious, she is a Sultana, and especially
the daughter of someone who hates us (safiye). Mehmet says I know who she is,
but the feelings I have for her in my heart and her feelings for me.
Fahriye says to her servant, oh it is as if he has found a
solution. Her servant jokingly says, well he’s not kidnapping you is he?
Fahriye says oh, how I wish we could be far from this palace and the rules, somewhere where life is just the two of us, I
would go with him without thinking.
Shahin tells Mehmet, do not say Amen to something
impossible, the rules for the Ottoman family are obvious. While the matter is
still fresh, give up on it. Mehmet says
were you not the one speaking of dreams? Well this is my dream and is as
impossible as yours is. The rules are
between the Padishah’s lips..if he wishes anything can happen..right? Shahin is
giggling. You have lost your mind. You are going to go ask the Padishah for a
Sultana?! Mehmet replies, not I
Shahin…you will ask for her for me. You caught Sh. Mustafa and delivered
him. He will do whatever iin return, he
had promised. Shahin says for a woman you will give up on the throne of Crimea?! Mehmet says, you don’t get it, I will give up
my life for her. Shahin asks what are you waiting for, that I ask and padishah
will give her? Mehmet says, that is my
only hope, to be with her it is my only hope.
Do it for me Shahin.
Halime is walking with Mustafa agha, and says if I were you
I would have stayed in Egypt in happiness as you know there is no happiness
under this domes. Halime has come to visit Dervish and she says your type is
out at night , but I see you are so busy you stay here, she says that I am
amazed at how much Shahin giray is trusted. Dervish says yes you may say that
because he is the one who caught you. She says well why did he catch me? How
did he benefit from it? Have you thought
of that at all? Dervish says, yes, lots
of reasons, like sitting on the Crimean throne. As you know, our Hunkar chooses
who will be the Han of Crimea. Halime
says, but I looked in those eyes (Shahin), you will not know the thoughts he
has. If I were you I would find the money to distribute tomorrow (for the
soldiers). That the soldiers even
wnaited this long is a miracle, as you know, they smell weakness before any one
else.
Ahmet is bathing and Ana arrives and he says stay with me
tonight so tonight I feel I am not alone
in the world. She asks what the stone
is, he says it is the stone that was the first insult thrown in my face. I will
hide it, otherwise humans forget…they forget what befalls them. Ana says, how
sad I don’t have a stone, but I will not forget what they did to me. Ana says I
saw you with Mahfiruze tonight. Ahmet says when you become Padishah I assumed
you would free, but it is not like this, and this is one of the rules, that I
must prove that the line of dynasty comes from me. Ana asks if he is afraid,
and he says what fear, I am the Padishah, I am not afraid of anything. Ana says
Ahmet, you have lots of burdens, don’t carry this as well (the stone). In three, she says and they throw it in the
water.
In the morning, people have gathered for Ulefe day – morning
prayers prayed in Aya sofya , greet the pashas and the Janissaries and men are
fed and then are paid their four month wages. Cennet tells her iif they eat,
all is well, f they do not put their spoons in the food to eat, then everyone
knows they are unhappy and it is the sign of revolt.
Safiye is also watching.
Ahmet arrives for the event and Dervish says I beg you,
please rethink your decision, Ahmet says I am the padishah I will not lower
myself to anyone. Ahmet is announced and
takes his seat. He says to them, my
servants prior to starting everyone should know because I do not have the
ascension money in hand, it will not be distributed today, but know that soon
it will be here and you will have it.
Hanan is late to watch and she is worried. Ahmet waits and
then looks at Dervish. Safiye says to Handan, in order to exile me you have
thrown your son in the fire.
Dervish announces that they move forward to eat, but they do
not and the sipahi says you promised us that we would get our right, but now
you say its not here again! We want our right! They move forward and the
sultan’s two guards move forward and even Ahmet has his sword ready. “You traitors” he says, take all their heads!
“ Zulfikar tries to stop his men but they join in so he goes through to protect
the sultan, and Dervish pulls Ahmet back.
Handan says “Sultanim, he is your grandson, the future of
the Dynasty, do something, tell them to stop. Safiye says, may he have a long life. Then she approaches
Ahmet. She says, Hunkarim, I think the
time has come time for consultation. Meanwhile outside Zulfikar helps the
Bostanci guards hold the men back. Kasim pasa arrives and Zulfikar tells them
to calm down their ascension money is here to be distributed. The Sipahi says
but you said there was no money? Did you all hear? They played with us! The
announcement is made that the money is not from the royal treasury but from
Safiye sultan’s personal wealth. They
shout, long live Safiye Sultan! Meanwhile, Ahmet signs the document saying that
for 2,000,000 and that the document is a guarantee Safiye Sultan can stay in
the palace. Ahmet puts his seal on it. Safiye says, even if it is late,
everything is okay. She leaves, and Ahmet is angry says, she got what she
wanted! Dervish says let her relish in her joy, but tomorrow she will awaken to
a different day tomorrow.
Meanwhile, the aghas are happy and drunk in the pub and one
of them says we did a good work! The other one says yes, but how sad the
Ottoman throne is left to such a padishah. The sipahi says after safiye sultan
who cares about the padishah anyway? And Dervish overheard everything.
Handan is approached by halime and Handan says you heard
about hwat happened, Halime says, you wont believe me but I was saddened and I
prayed for our Hunkar. Handan says, I accept your offer; it is time to put our
differences aside and act together. Halime says, yes for our children. We will
get rid of Safiye sultan from this palace. Then she hands a document over. This
is every single person’s name who is loyal to Safiye Sultan.
Dervish catches the sipahi leader Dervish kill shim saying
oh you will insult our Padishah and draw a sword on him, and everything will
just go on the same. And he kills him.
And we see the other agha is also dead.
Meanwhile, Ana goes to Golge in the hama and says that since
that day she has thought and wonders why she saved her, she tells her I know of
a secret place, but then I couldn’t find my way and then I saw an agha and he
killed the head doctor, the agha was Reyhan agha, he is the murderer. I don’t
know what to do help me, and Golge tells
her to keep quiet. Ahmet is in his room and Dervish arrives telling him that he took care
of the two aghas who had headed the revolt and if he has any other requests and
Ahmet says there was an Acemi in the barracks (Alex) what happened to him?
Dervish says he will certainly get his due punishment n the barracks, his
future might even be execution. Ahmet says bring him here, I will personally
punish him/order it.
Safiye wakes up and
asks for Cennet but no one is there and she looks and finds no one
around , she wonders if it is armeggedon or something, and Cennet says
“Sultanim, calamity, they sent every single person away. Your aghas, your cariyes. Our Hunkar gave the
order last night. Every single person has gone.
Meanwhile, Kasim Pasha has been let go, exiled to Baghdad,
and Yavuz Ali (the Grand Vizier) keeps his job, but will go as head of the army
to hungary, kept away from the Capitol.
They current Sheyh ul Islam is let go and another man takes his place
(the one that is smiling, I think his name is Sunullah). Safiye hears from Nasuh and says our nemesis has become the seyh ul
Islam! Nasuh informs her of the executions of the agha and sipahi rebel
leaders. Safiye asks how did this
happen. Nasuh says everything happened at night, it is Dervish’s and Haci
agha’s doing. Nasuh says that her Vakf charitable works are all put on hold the
excuse being it is wartime and unnecessary expenditure. Nasuh says, it is apparent they have cut
everything off. Safiye says oh they can only cut off what they see, Thank God I
have many things they cannot see. She asks about whats happening with Nasuh,
who says he has been appointed The beylerbey of Aleppo (sent away). Safiye is
furious.
Meanwhile, Zulfikar tells Alex to change because he will go.
Alex asks where? Oh to death right? And Zulfikar says the Padishah will give
the order himself. Davut is mocking him. Alex wants to say goodye to his
friends. He hands one of them something and says it is from my family, my
really family, you can bury it with me…
Alex has to go.
Ana meets Ahmet and he says they said you wanted to see me?
She says you are the only one who cals me that, they call me mahpeykar, little
girl, etc. she says, but your name is
beautiful. She says her father gave her
the name and that she is afraid of
death. She worried for him, and she looked down from the tower and there were
thousands of soldiers and she thought they would kill her. Ahmet says I was
afraid too, but not from death, because since I knew myself it was always
hanging on my head, but my real fear is dying without living our my dreams…being
a powerful ruler, world peace, tasting love, …dying without fulfilling these
things.
Anastasia reaches out to him, she is finally accepting his
love.
Just then, Reyhan agha arrives with blindfolded Alex.
