Can and Sanem left the opera house with Can holding her hand. They kept looking at each other and smiling. Sanem was still in shock that her albatross and Mr. Can were the same person. Can was feeling relief that she finally knew who was her albatross that she had been looking for. He helped her up into the truck and he got behind the wheel. He asked her where she wanted to go. She told him she really needed to go home. It was late and her mother would worry. He smiled and said OK. Can drove her home. As they sat outside her home, they kept glancing at each other. Sanem was nervous. She told him thank you for the ride and reached for the door. Can stopped her and asked if she was OK. Sanem looked at him and smiled. She told him she was. He asked if her mood was still in order. Sanem said it was. She was just still feeling the shock of it all. She warned him she would have questions for him in the morning. He said that was fine. He leaned over and kissed her cheek. He told her good night. Sanem smiled and said good night. He waited until she entered her home, then he drove off.
Can decided to walk along the coast and call his dad. He told his father he has found what he has been searching for while traveling all over the world. He found it in Istanbul. He told his dad he wasn't sick. He didn't have a fever. He told his father that beautiful things were happening, and he would introduce his father to these beautiful things when he returned. He then drove home. He found Polen gone when he arrived. She left a note saying she was going to her mother's until her flight back to London. Can went into the kitchen and ate another one of Sanem's awful cutlets. He ate it with a smile.
Sanem went home and dreamed of Can. It was more like a nightmare. She dreamed Can found out about her keeping things from him. He found out about Emre's deception and Sanem kept it from her. She woke up in tears. She decided she had to keep her distance from Mr. Can. She didn't want Mr. Can to hate her. She got dressed for work and left the house. Can met her when she exited her bus. He told her good morning. She said good morning, Mr. Can. Can knew immediately something was wrong because she called him Mr. Can. He asked her what was wrong. Sanem said she had nightmares about wolves. Can just laughed and said come to my office so you can ask me what you need to ask. He enters the building.
Once in Can's office, he shuts the door. He tells Sanem to ask him what she wants. She asked him how he knew it was her that he kissed in the opera house that night. He leaned into her and inhaled her fragrance. He told her it was her smell. He has not been able to get it out of his head. She asked him how long he has known. Can told her for a while. She accused him of playing with her this whole time. Can denied it. He told her he was waiting for her to figure it out. She had already told him it couldn't be him because of the way he was dressed that night. They were interrupted for a meeting, so they left Can's office.
Deren called Sanem to her office. Deren was telling her it did not look right for Sanem and the boss to be wet that day by the sea. She also said it didn't look right for Sanem to be cooking cutlets for the boss. Sanem got up to leave, but Deren stopped her. She told Sanem she was talented, intelligent young girl. She told Sanem to refuse getting Can involved in her personal life or the boss would refuse her in the end. Or somebody will put sticks in her wheels, with her every mistake. Deren told her she warned her as one woman to another. Sanem left Deren's office.
Sanem was at the coffee station when Can saw her. He went up to her and told her to continue with her questions. She asked him why he never told her he was her albatross. Can said I did. Sanem asked when. He said when we were at the hut. You got drunk on wine and passed out in my arms while we were dancing. I told you, but you did not hear. She said that was all the questions she had. They could close the topic. He told her he was happy to tell her anything. He wanted to know if they could go somewhere to be alone. Sanem changed the subject completely and then she ran off.
