Ömer stops her. She has not eaten from the stew because it smelled odd. In the kitchen Hediye is beside herself and Cevriye is apologizing. Ökkeş tries to calm his wife. Ömer comes and asks to see Hediye in the study. Ökkeş wants to go instead of her she says no and goes herself. Ömer asks her to be more careful and that it is not just Zehra, all the family could have been in danger. Hediye accepts and leaves. Zehra sees Hediye leaving upset. She tells Ömer that he should not have upset her. He is adamant that she is in charge of the kitchen and needs to be more on guard. Zehra says but nothing happened. Ömer reveals unwantedly how he was scared that something might have happened to Zehra. Zehra wants Ömer to apologize to Hediye!!!

Hediye cries in the kitchen. Cevriye apologizes again and promises never to touch anything in the kitchen ever again. Demir is frustrated for not finding Leyla. He gets a call from Ömer and tells Mehtap to prepare the meeting. Mehtap tries to find out why Betul was fired but Nihat shirks her off. Leyla is visiting Zehra. They talk about Salim coming to the house and mull over the possibility of Mehtap's involvement but reject it. Leyla talks about a good news and Zehra immediately connects it to love. Leyla remembers moments with Demir but pulls herself out and says that she is moving to her aunt's home which is close to Salim's place. So she can meet Zehra's family more often.

Yasemin, Koray, Funda and Alper are out of the cinema. Funda insists on going to Koray's place. They go and Yasemin ends up being late. Salim has called several times. Funda gets Alper to take Yasemin home. Yasemin gets a mouthful from Salim and the famous statement of the film: "Trust is easy to lose and hard to gain!" Meanwhile Alev goes to Yener's Real Estate office and can't get anything out of Betton!! She leaves frustrated.

Zehra remembers moments with Ömer and is becoming aware of her changed feelings toward him. In the study Demir arrives and notices Ömer's concern. He tells Ömer he saw him with Zehra in the waterfront. Ömer remembers the moments with Zehra. Ömer tells Demir about the situation with Salim and that someone at the office must be trying to create problems for them. Ayşe comes in and tells Ömer that Leyla is leaving. He goes to the door to see her off. When Leyla goes, Zehra tells Ömer she is going to check on Hediye. She goes and hears Ökkeş telling her to go apologize to Ömer. She goes in and says there is no need. Such things happen. It is no big deal. Ökkeş leaves. Ömer comes and asks for coffee. Zehra tries to get him to say something. He says he just wants his coffee. Zehra sits Hediye down and prepares the coffee herself.

In the bedroom Ömer asks why she did not send him his coffee. She asks what you told Hediye. He says I told her what needed to be said. She says you probably treated her like you did me before. He says this does not concern you; it is between me and Hediye. That food could have been eaten by anyone in the house. She is annoyed saying there is no changing your mind, is there? She then says you were supposed to order a sofa. He says why didn't you remind me? There is noise and they jump in bed.

Hediye is still upset. She goes to talk to Ömer and hears at the door Ömer saying "As long as she is in the house, she is a big threat to us!" Ömer is talking about Alev to Demir but Hediye thinks he is talking about her. She goes back in tears. Zehra comes and sees her crying in the kitchen. She tells the women in the living room that they should do something about Hediye. Müzeyyen is concerned and tries to talk to her. Cevriye apologizes again but there is no consoling her.

Mehtap is annoyed that his Salim trick did not cause any evident problems. She sets up the meeting in Ömer's office and puts a note in one of the files for Ömer. Ömer and Demir arrive for the meeting. Mehtap tells Demir Leyla has arrived. He tells her to take her to his office. Ömer wonders what he has shared with Leyla. Demir reminds Ömer that the four of them, including Leyla know about everything.

Salim takes Koray out for lunch and Koray realizes Yasemin being late has caused her trouble and that is why she has not brought lunch that day.

Ömer finds the note saying "I know the secret you are holding from everyone." He gets up and leaves. Demir goes to Leyla who has been waiting long at his office and tells her he has done all the work and they should go for coffee. Leyla says she has to go. Demir is frustrated.

Mehtap sends an unaddressed envelope to Ömer and Zehra. Hediye tells Ökkeş she is too old for this job and they need to return to the village. Ömer arrives at home upset about the note. Cevriye says sorry about yesterday. Ömer says it is good that no one was hurt. Alev says but someone could have been hurt. They mention Hediye and how she cannot stop blaming herself. Hediye and Ökkeş come out to talk with everyone and possibly announce their departure. Müzeyyen is concerned. Everyone is paying attention when Nazan comes and says the nameless envelope has been delivered. She is about to give it to Ömer when Alev grabs it. Ökkeş and Hediye leave in the commotion. Zehra tells Ömer weren't you waiting for invitations. Alev says there is no addressee and goes on to open it when Müzeyyen says Alev, it is Ömer's. Ömer takes it. She insists on him opening it there. He pulls out a photo and pushes it back in. Alev keeps asking what it is. Who is it for? Ömer is upset.

Zehra says you look worried. Who called? Ömer says the same person who sent the envelope. He asks if anyone comes to her mind. Again she thinks of Mehtap but does not tell him because she can't be certain and thinks Ömer will immediately punish Mehtap by firing her and yet she might be innocent. Ömer then calls Demir. He tells Demir he is also pursuing the matter through Tyfun.

Demir spends the night in his car in front of Leyla's house. In the morning Ömer is up early and leaving. Zehra says she wants to go to Mahaleh. Ömer reminds her to take the photo. He says he would take her but he is in a rush. Zehra plans to go see Mehtap.

In the kitchen everything is back to normal with Hediye and Cevriye and Ökkeş having fun and working and eating. In the office Ömer tells Demir that he feels the whole thing is orchestrated by Yener. He decides to put a cap on it by offering him a deal. He asks Demir to call the lawyer. He tells Mehtap and she becomes curious to see what's going on.

Funda goes to see Yasemin and again is trying to plan something to take her out and push her together with Alper. Zehra calls Yasemin saying she is coming for a visit. Alev wants to take Zehra. She says I can go on my own. Meanwhile Leyla goes to the office and tells Demir that he is going too fast for her and that they have only recently met and he needs to slow down. Funda goes to Salim and asks for permission to take Yasemin out with her in the evening. Salim is put on the spot and agrees. Yasemin calls later and Salim snaps at her saying that she should not send her friend to get permission for her.

Ömer tells the lawyer that they can prepare a proposal that they would forego proceedings against Yener if he agrees never to see Zehra again and never to talk about the events that had passed. Ömer wants to make sure no news of this leaks outside. Zehra goes to Mahaleh and tries the real estate office but sees only Betton is there. She goes home. Yasemin tells her that she has been late a couple of times and his father is now very angry with her. Zehra promises to talk to him. Zehra remembers moments of closeness with Ömer and smiles. She then takes out the photo and they go to see the old photos in Yasemin's room. Looking in her drawer, they find a bundle of money left by Sevim for Yasemin with a note telling her not to look for her. Zehra wonders where she got the money from. She thinks it is probably from Yener and he probably knows where her mother is so she decides to go pay him a visit.

Ömer calls Nihat and tells him he wants to be apprised of all hires. Nihat is upset and feels Ömer has no confidence in him. Ömer remembers the early episodes with Nihat where he had thought he was having an affair with Zehra rather than interviewing her for a job in the office. He also remembers how he had belittled Zehra and been slapped by her. Feeling bad about what he had done, he calls her and says he just wanted to see how she was. Zehra has just left the house and wonders what is going on. She decides not to bother Leyla and go see Yener alone. Ömer chides himself for making the call with no reason. Tyfun comes and tells Ömer that Alev has met with Yener. Ömer calls to set up a meeting with Yener. Tyfun feels Ömer is keeping something from him; Ömer assures him that there is nothing.

Funda, Yasemin and Alper go out in Alper's car. Koray does not join them. Zehra goes to the workshop, says hi to her dad and asks him to be more tolerant with Yasemin. She then goes off to jail to visit Yener. As she is leaving, Mehtap sees her but stays back. Demir visits Leyla with flowers and apologizes and tries to start afresh. As Zehra gets off from the taxi and walks toward the prison door, Ömer turns the corner and sees her going into the building.
