Zehra explains that Jülide appeared on the day of the court. Ömer is not happy to find out what was the reason for Zehra's sudden change of heart at the court. Zehra goes on to say that she was then curious to hear what Jülide had to say and then Jülide began to seem very real and truthful to her. Like a mother who has suffered for having lost her children. So Zehra explains that she talked Ayşe into seeing her. Ömer is silent. Zehra wants to touch him but he gets up and steps back holding out his shaking hand as he had done to Jülide. Zehra leaves under the weight of sadness. She goes to Ayşe and tells her. Ayşe calms her and takes her to the study to talk to Ömer but he is gone. Nihat tells them that Ömer just left. Zehra calls Ömer but he does not answer. Ayşe, Nihat and Asya take leave at the door. Bahşende tells Zehra she is the creator of this sad picture. Zehra is very upset and in her room as she sweats over the affair, Hediye consoles her.

Sabah tells Kerem she loves him. Kerem and Sabah go to Aysil's pastry shop and have a nice date. Kerem invites Koray and Canan to announce they are going out together.

Ipek tells Koray she has done nothing wrong. She cries not knowing how to prove her innocence. Koray begins deep investigation as he feels Ipek is genuine.

Hamiyyet and Şükran go and visit Aysil. They apologize and confirm their deep friendship. At home, Salim tells them off for pushing the marriage issue and causing problems for Aysil.

Ömer drives to the waterfront wondering why Zehra has done this. He remembers how she had asked for a divorce and then changed her mind. Nihat calls him saying they have lost the deal. Ömer goes to the office. Nihat goes to him. He snaps at Nihat but apologizes after. Nihat leaves and Ayşe goes to talk to Ömer. She tells him how indebted she is to him but that each person has his or her own feelings and ideas about life and can't be kept in a golden cage. She begs him not to blame Zehra for anything as she has entered their lives like an angel and stood by him despite all the horrid things he has done to her and continues to love him. Ömer remains silent. He drives home still upset. Zehra cries herself to sleep in bed. Ömer goes to his room, takes off his jacket and tie. Later he goes into their bedroom and sits at the edge of Zehra's side watching her sleep all night. In the morning she wakes up and sees him. She ges up and begs him not be angry with her and that she only wanted to make everything better and did not realize how things got this far. He gets up and she approaches him and asks him to forgive her. He says I won't forgive you! I won't forgive you because there is nothing to forgive. You are the most blameless individual in this story!!

Ömer tells Ayşe that they should stay and that she can see whomever she wishes to see. Everyone is very happy! Clearly Zehra had set up the lie about Ayşe wanting to leave the country to move Ömer into action. Kerem hits the guy and he says this will not be the end! Zehra helps Ayşe unpack. Hediye comes and tells Zehra she has a visitor. Great Aunt Kadija is visiting. Bahşende is appalled by her appearance. Kadija has brought goodies from the village. Bahşende, unlike the others, does not appreciate the gesture. Hediye takes it to the kitchen and will make Tarragon soup with the special Tarragon Kadija has brought. At dinner time everyone talks about Zehra's goodness and how she has kept the house together by preventing Ayşe from going abroad. Bahşende insists it is because of the bond between the brother and sister and not Zehra. Bahşende does not eat the tarragon soup and says it does not agree with her. Kadija eats hers as well saying food must not be wasted in respect for the work that has been done for it to get from earth to the table. Ayşe and Ömer agree and take a second helping.

Koray goes to see Ipek at the Bakery and apologizes and asks her to come back. She says she cannot. Ipek then talks to Aysil. Aysil convinces her to go back, head up high. Koray tells Kerem about the Ipek situation. Kerem is happy sending texts to Sabah and being silly!

Zehra asks that Kadija stay a few nights. Bahşende tries to avoid it saying she probably has her own itinerary. Ömer also insists. Kadija observes Bahşende's intent and says she will make some time to stay.

In the bedroom Zehra tries to make herself look pretty. She puts on perfume and wants to change her pajamas. Ömer comes and says since Kadija is staying in the guest room, he has come here. Zehra tells him that Ayşe has stayed because he is a fair, goodhearted person and brother. She adds that he is a wonderful husband. He asks if all issues between them are resolved. Zehra responds yes. They are about to kiss when Hediye barges in and says Kadija wants to see Zehra. Ömer is impatient. Zehra goes promising to come back soon. Ömer changes and grooms himself in the mirror. He sits waiting. Kadija and Zehra talk and chat. In the morning, Ömer has fallen asleep in bed. Zehra comes in and apologizes for having fallen asleep in Kadija's room. He is disappointed. She kisses him on the cheek and refuses to kiss him on the lip.

Koray goes to work and sees Ipek there and is happy. He tells her that he is trying to find who was responsible for the leak. Özge is surprised to Ipek there. Halit goes to Salim's workshop and Salim gets him busy there with some work. Sabah goes to the bakery to keep guard and she helps Aysil as well. The guys come and Sabah threatens them with some plate from the counter.

Bahşende talks with Ayşe saying how happy she is that Ayşe has returned but when she realizes Ömer has allowed her to see her mom, she is angry. She goes to Ömer and tells her that he should not have done that. Ömer says I have tried to do my best to support Ayşe in all her life and for much of it you too were absent. I will keep trying to, as I have in the past. Bahşende goes into the living room, calls Zehra and begins telling her off for bringing Jülide into their lives. Zehra realizes that Hatice is at the door and does not want there to be tension.
