Ömer swerves the car away. The truck driver missed them by an inch at the last minute by orders from Hilmi Yilmaz who having realized Mert is in the car had told them to abort the accident. Zehra has hit her head. Ömer moves the car and gets some water for her. They want to get back in but they have a flat tire. They begin changing it and Ömer reminds Zehra of the last time they changed a tire together. He asks why did you change your mind and comes. She says to avoid Cevria's questions. Zehra has a stomachache. She tells Ömer to get her pills from her bag. He sees his notes in her bag. There is no water so he wants to go and search for water in the woods. She stops him and they go together. Alev is walking in the woods annoyed that Ömer does not even notice her. They find a stream and Ömer gets some water in his cupped hands and gets her to drink it. Alev sees them and goes back annoyed.

At home Ayşe enlists everyone's help to raise Cevria's spirits. Hediye, Okkeş, Asya and Müzeyyen do their part and Nihat is also very funny pretending to be sick so Cevria would engage in cooking soup for him. Mehtap goes to Salim's workshop so see how her nasty plans are affecting them. She can't gather anything as they continue to work without complaints.

Alev goes back to the road where Mert has finished changing the tire. He asks about Ömer and Zehra. Alev says they have found water and are sitting there. Mert says perfect; I'll go and wash my hands. In the meantime Alev pulls some parts out of the engine to disable it. Ömer gets Zehra to sit and he asks about her reading his notes and is about to speak more earnestly to her when Mert arrives. They go back and realize the car is not working. They get out. There is no phone service.

Alev says I am hungry. Zehra remembers some cookies she got for Asya and brings them out and offers them to everyone. Alev takes a whole bunch and there is only one left for Zehra. Ömer gives her some of his own.

It is getting dark. Ömer and Zehra go to collect firewood as they will have to stay until tomorrow. Alev goes and breaks their moment saying Mert is looking for Ömer. Ömer goes back and Alev continues to follow Zehra as she continues looking for firewood. Ömer goes to Mert and Mert says I did not call for you. Ömer goes back for the girls. Alev follows Zehra as they approach a cliff and gets behind her with possible thoughts of pushing her off.

Ömer runs to get Zehra up. Ömer frets over her and holds her face in his hands trying to make sure she is fine. Mert tells him that she had fallen in a hole and hurt her ankle. They go to the car as Ömer helps her walk. When they get home, Mert helps Zehra off the car. Alev tries to make Ömer jealous by hinting how Mert is now Zehra's champion having saved her life.

At home Ayşe gives some pointers to Cevria regarding classy behaviour like how to dress, etc. Cevria wants to lose weightand be like the thin models in the magazines. Cevria does not like black outfits as it does not fit her colourful character.

Someone offers Salim work but he refuses saying they are too busy. Koray runs after the guy and without letting Salim know tells him that he will do it but at night. He wants to make money to make payments on his debt. Yasemin gets upset that he has no time to go to dinner with them but he says he has to work.

In the bedroom Ömer continues to handle Zehra with care and she is moved thinking about how he held her face in his hands and worried over her. He helps her into the bathroom to take a shower; she asks him to go get her clothes. Everyone else feeds Mert and Alev. Ayşe thanks Mert for saving Zehra. Mert's arm is hurting so he just leaves to rest.

Ömer waits outside the door for Zehra to get dressed. Ayşe brings them food and he takes it in cautiously. Zehra is ready and hungry. Ömer sets it up and they sit to eat. They begin with appetite. He asks why she went so far. She says I was just near the water. He says I called but you did not answer. She says it must have been when I had passed out. Zehra then begins to worry about Mert and his shoulder. Ömer loses his appetite. Zehra does not get it.

Alev meets with Hilmi Yilmaz and he tells her if she cannot think of a way to separate Mert and Ömer, he will do it himself. Alev says I have a plan to end their partnership and is thinking of using Zehra to do this. At night Alev suggests that Zehra make some poultice for Mert and Zehra jumps to it despite her hurt ankle. Ömer notes and is not happy. In the bedroom Ömer also begins pretending that his arms hurt from sleeping in the car. Zehra says she will make something for him tomorrow. He notes that she did not jump to it as she did for Mert.

Ayşe is excited that their website is beginning to give fruit. Nihat feels Ayşe does not attend to him as much as before and she promises to make sure he does not feel left out. Betton gives Mehtap a letter form his brither. Yener says he is fine and will soon leave the country.

In the morning Zehra tells Ömer to do some stretching exercises for his neck. He is annoyed and says I have no time. She then goes to give Mert his poultice. Ömer is upset. Zehra goes to make an ointment for Ömer. Alev notices. Zehra takes it to him but he is gone.

Meanwhile Hilmi Yilmaz is going over the police report on the security guard's murder.

Alev goes to the office. When Zehra arrives, she sends her to Ömer's office where Mert is sitting at Ömer's desk because Ömer is at a meeting. Alev then suggests that Zehra use some of Ömer's ointment on Mert since he still has some pain. She thinks it's a good idea. Zehra begins to help him put it on when Ömer comes and sees Zehra and Mert too close for his liking.
