Ömer sits Ayşe down and tells her that Nihat has died in a traffic accident. Ayşe is frantic and they all go to the station. Ömer identifies the body and collects his things. As they are about to leave, a policeman comes to ask Ömer some questions. He is holding a pink handbag. Ayşe notes the bag and goes with Zehra. The policeman tells Ömer that there was a woman named Belis with the deceased and she was killed too. Ömer is shocked and wonders how he can tell his sister. Hediye tells Jülide about Nihat's death and she is concerned about Asya growing up fatherless. At home, Hediye informs the family that Cevriye has called and wants to bury Nihat in Keyseri. Ayşe refuses and says her daughter's father must be buried here in Istanbul. Bahşende asks Ayşe to keep the cheating business under wraps. Ayşe assures her and leaves. Ömer is angry with Bahşende for just thinking about the family name rather than Ayşe herself.

Halit is convinced that Ipek and Koray are spies. Aysil apologizes to Koray. He tells her not to worry. Zehra calls Salim and informs him that Nihat has died in an accident. Selin also informs Koray about Nihat's accident. Everyone is moved by the fragility of life and connects this insight to their own lives. Salim prays reading the Koran and Canan asks questions about committing sins and repenting. Salim tells her if one is truly repentant and returns to the right path, they will be blessed.

Ayşe remembers the police officer with the handbag and tells Ömer not to worry and that she already knows everything. Ömer and Zehra ask her to forget about Belis and that affair and concentrate on herself and Asya.

Canan goes to visit Zehra and the family. Defne is there too. Ömer asks Ayşe if she would like to get the help of a psychologist to tell Asya about her dad's death. Defne says I know someone. Ayşe says she can't make any decisions right now. Ömer asks Defne to just discuss it with her friend for now. Defne promises Ömer to do so right away. Canan does not like Defne's demonstrations of closeness to Ömer. She tells Zehra in the kitchen. Zehra says they are old friends and Canan should keep quiet about it.

Ömer goes into Jülide's room to get his charger. Jülide finds it for him. He thanks Jülide for being there for Ayşe and says Ayşe is very much like her and will find the strength to overcome this hardship like her mother. Jülide is moved. He looks like he might hug his mother but again he can't and takes his leave.

Ipek and Koray do not go to office and Selin is looking for them. We see them stuck in a storage place unable to get out.
