That's for sure.

Playing the old scenes over again.

I can't stand it.

Alright, then.

Have it your way.

I'll leave, you can stay.

What's up?

- I'm leaving.

- So soon?

When you've got to go,

you've got to go.

There might be black ice.

Could be dangerous.

I don't mind.

We love danger.

Awesome.

- So where are you heading?

- We'll see.

Wherever the road takes me.

Was Hidayet downstairs?

- Yes, I checked out with him.

- No, that's not what I meant.

Do you need anything?

Food for the road?

No, thank you.

Anyway...

Fine.

- Have a safe journey.

- Thank you.

Don't forget us.

Nihal, am I disturbing you?

Don't hide it, I won't look.

I just wanted to ask something.

Then ask, Aydin.

I heard you raised funds last night.

Is that true?

Yes, we did. So what?

Why didn't you tell me?

Did I have to?

You didn't have to,

but I'd have appreciated it.

I might have wanted

to make a significant contribution.

I don't think it's a good idea.

We're doing fine on our own.

We don't need you, thanks.

Come on.

One always needs more.

After all, I'm a wealthy man.

What's more natural

than helping an educational project?

But nobody expects

anything from you.

From you neither, darling.

Yet you created a huge committee

in our house without me knowing.

Didn't you?

Listen to me, Aydin, please.

We've lived in peace

for two years,

each to his own affairs.

What's suddenly changed?

Yesterday your aim was

to humiliate me and the guests.

- Think I didn't notice?

- Me?

Never even crossed my mind.

Come on, for God's sake.

I was so angry,

I couldn't sleep last night.

If we start fighting and quarreling

again like we used to,

then it's clear I can't stay here.

- Is that a threat?

- Why would I threaten you?

I'm just saying what could happen.

OK, say you left.

Where would you go?

Wherever I could. I don't know.

I'd go to Istanbul.

Find a job and work.

Nihal, my darling.

You haven't got tired of banging

the same old drum for years.

As if I'm keeping you here by force.

I've never stopped you, have I?

Go whenever you like.

Maybe you should. Try it.

Find a job, with the minimum wage.

From 8 to 6.

After work, you can go on saving

the world, if you have energy left.

I'll do it if necessary.

Much better than wasting my life

living like a parasite

with an arrogant man like you.

Thanks to you,

I'm drifting in vain here.

I'm sponging off you.

I spend your money.

But I pay for it with my freedom

and my useless loyalty.

Do you know how donating even a

little of someone else's money feels?

No, I don't.

And why?

Because I've worked like a dog

all my life not to know.

I couldn't enjoy

my childhood or youth.

Too much of an easy life,

that's your trouble.

You have no idea

what gratitude means.

Besides, I'm asking you...

Stop these secret meetings

and gatherings at my house.

I only allow close acquaintances

into my house.

If that lot want to do charity work,

they should find somewhere else.

Nobody can come here yelling away

in the middle of the night.

I won't allow it.

And that bum of a teacher

doesn't give a damn.

The school needs this or that.

His real aim is to trap

bored neurotics like you.

Why don't you understand me, Nihal?

Why are you being unfair?

I swear my only intention

when I showed up

was to help you, support you.

Please leave me alone, Aydin.

I'm begging you.

Let's stay away from each other

for a while. You go or me.

Or let's break up, I don't know.

OK, why all the shouting?

I'm going anyway.

I made this decision some time ago.

I'm off to Istanbul for a while.

I have things to do for my book, too.

But I have doubts

about your donations campaign.

I find it very important.

I can't leave before sorting it out.

So please, let's just sit.

And talk calmly

like two civilized people, OK?

Come on, please.

Nihal, I'm asking you kindly.

Come and sit here.

Come on.

Nihal, will you come over here?

Nihal, darling...

It's obvious you started

such an organization

because of your love of people

and your conscientiousness.

I'm not looking for a conspiracy.

In fact, I will support you

all the way.

Although I respect your intelligence

and your feelings,

especially your feelings,

I can't allow such a tricky business

which could cause us

big problems we can't predict now

to be ruined at the hands of you

and those rascals.

However pure your intentions.

Remember "The road to hell

is paved with good intentions."

For a start, you've no experience.

You know nothing of life.

You're too impetuous.

You are easily deceived.

You trust people instantly.

You've gathered all these

strange assistants around you.

This is very dangerous business,

Nihal.

To tell you the truth,

under these conditions, any efforts

will lead to two bad outcomes.

First, nothing gets done

for the schools.

Second, you'll lose a fortune

because of all the shoddy work.

And your name will be stained.

One can say the money

doesn't matter. I can cover it.

But what about your name, our name?

Once things get out of hand,

you can't imagine all the gossip.

They'll all accuse us

of embezzling the donations.

And you'll suddenly be all alone.

They'll all vanish.

And we'll get blamed.

Just get to the point.

My point is this.

I was glad

you were collecting donations.

But to be honest, I was worried too.

You need more than enthusiasm

in this kind of affair.

So I felt the urge to step in,

so we don't have problems

in the future.

- The urge?

- Yes.

Otherwise, I'd have gone to Istanbul.

But I can't until I sort this out.

This is a risky business, Nihal.

It's not a game.

There have been

all these fraud cases recently

and all the new laws.

Do you know them?

Get to the point.

What do you want?

I want to see

all the donations and expenditures.

And the list of your helpers.

I am sure they're trustworthy,

but better safe than sorry.

Are you serious?

Nihal, let's be reasonable, please.

Don't you trust my experience,

and my honesty?

I'm still not sure what you're after.

What could I be after?

What could I possibly be after?

I'm just trying to prevent

any problems for my family.

I have the right, don't I?

Now...

Let me see the donations

and your expenses.

It'll take me a minute

to spot any problems.

I just want to see your situation.

I have nothing to hide.

Anyone can look.

There they are, take a look.

These?

I'm sorry but I don't understand

any of this.

Don't you have a table

showing donations?

We have the signed documents.

Nihal, dearest...

It's obvious you haven't a clue.

How is that possible?

How come you don't have a chart

showing everything at once?

You should also have a copy

of the receipts for donations.

Do you have them?

No.

For money or goods in kind,

you have to prepare

an invoice or receipt.

Have they been issued?

I don't think so.

But all this is very important.

Very important.

What if they want to deduct

the donation from taxes?
