for your rooms yet.

I was going to ask

if you'd take care of it.

- When you say our rooms?

- Room 106. The suite you're in.

That can't be right.

No, there's been no payment.

The guys on day-shift left a note.

I mean, we've checked the accounts.

- No payment at all up to now?

- No. Not since the day you arrived.

- I'll see to it.

- OK. Just wanted to let you know.

No problem.

- But I apologize. I didn't know.

- Don't worry, no problem.

- Have a good evening.

- You too.

How's my new stage outfit?

Fine.

- I guess you don't like it.

- No.

I think it's fine.

- Are you smoking?

- Just playing.

- Is something getting you down?

- No, nothing serious.

OK.

Then I'll smoke that cigarette.

Red's a good colour on stage.

She's made all these plans,

she has all these dreams.

She trusted me.

She's come all the way here.

This is not something

I am used to.

You understand my position, don't you?

If I had the money to pay you,

it wouldn't be a problem.

It's not about the money, Yaar.

If I was doing it for me,

I'd sing wherever I liked.

- OK, but this way I feel bad.

- There's nothing to feel bad about.

Let's continue on that basis

for a while. Huh?

What do you say?

What can I say?

If you don't want any money for it...

But don't tell the girl.

OK.

Yavuz, you shouldn't be selling this.

- It's a real shame.

- I need the cash.

- Can I have one of your cigarettes?

- I'm sorry. Help yourself.

- Shall I order some tea?

- Sure.

Ramazan! Ramazannn!

Ahmet, tell Ramazan

to bring us two teas.

- Yozgat has some great folk songs.

- Right.

I mean, not many people know it,

but there's some really nice songs.

Are you familiar with them?

The folk songs?

There's an interesting tone

to the music.

- How's business with you?

- Good. Something always comes along.

I mean, repairing instruments

doesn't bring in much.

But weddings make a bit.

Sometimes we go out to the villages.

- Sometimes they ask us along.

- But it keeps you going.

Yes, it makes me a living.

In a place like Yozgat, it's plenty.

- C'mon, we're ready.

- OK, we're on our way.

Your invoice.

- I'll pay the rest by next week.

- OK.

Can I have the key?

- Here you go.

- Have a good evening.

- You sang beautifully.

- Thanks.

- I was really nervous though.

- You didn't show it.

No, c'mon. Well, OK then.

- My hair looks great, too.

- Yes.

Perfect hair for the stage.

Let's do it again for your exam.

OK.

- OK?

- OK.

- It's all the fashion.

- Yes, true.

- OK. Good night then.

- Good night.

- Are you going out?

- Yes.

- No breakfast?

- I'll get it outside somewhere.

- You were back late last night.

- Yes.

Are we out of tea?

- OK, see you.

- Bye now.

- I'd say the lilac.

- I agree.

The sugar pink is horrible.

I don't like it at all.

Me neither.

The lilac,

but a couple of shades lighter.

It'll give a fresher feel.

Fresher and warmer, both together.

Good.

OK, you know where the pipes are.

Make it a couple of shades lighter.

OK.

Come over here.

This'll be covered in pictures.

Photos of different hairstyles,

that kind of thing.

You won't be able to see inside,

but you'll see out from inside.

Right. Interesting.

The counters will be there.

- Just over there?

- Yes.

No, I think

you should make an L-shape.

Some there with mirrors

and more there with mirrors.

So when you look in,

it's lighter and more spacious.

FOR SALE:

SINGLE OWNER, 1976 MODEL

lhan Usta, can you take a look

at this car?

- Welcome.

- Thanks.

- Selam aleykum, Mustafa.

- Aleykum selam.

- What's up? Nothing bad, I hope.

- Thanks. What are you doing here?

- Getting the car washed.

- Right. Mine's overheating.

- A spanner in the works, huh?

- Exactly.

Hello?

We're very close, almost there. OK.

OK, we're coming.

OK, we'll make it. OK.

We turn left here.

Sabri, don't bother coming any more.

Why not?

There's no need now.

- Have I done something wrong?

- No, it's nothing to do with you.

Something else.

OK.

Necla, honey, you don't understand.

You're not listening.

I told you, I was in a meeting.

I couldn't take calls for two hours.

OK, I'm hanging up now

and going into a meeting.

OK, kisses. Love you.

All right, bye.

- Sorry, Nee.

- Hi.

Hi. That call kind of dragged on.

- It's OK. No problem.

- I've had great feedback on the recital.

- People really liked you.

- Good, I'm glad.

Have you chosen the new songs

we'll be doing?

Yes, sure.

What are you up to these days?

Not a lot. I'm going with Sabri

to look at furniture for his new place.

Great.

Look, I've picked the songs.

But I have another surprise for you.

Here, take a look.

- Hey, it's fantastic.

- Good, huh? That's the concept.

Right. The Magnificent Two!

The songs will change,

but the poster will stay the same.

I love it.

And the municipality's promised

to put up the poster in other towns.

You have one hour altogether.

- Excuse me. Do I have to do this?

- Yes, that's the style we want.

- But I've practised another style.

- No, you have to do this one.

- It's OK. It's not that difficult.

- I guess so.

- I look like an airhostess.

- Don't you like it?

No, I do. I'm just not used to

having my hair like this.

- What are you doing tonight?

- Nothing.

My grandmother's cooking dinner.

I was going to ask if you'd come.

OK, sure.

Something like this would do, you know?

Something comfortable.

You want people to be comfortable

while they're waiting.

But forget this one here.

Forget everything here, if you ask me.

It's all rather dull and tasteless.

- Seven hundred.

- OK.

- That pays for everything, right?

- Yes.

- Your invoice.

- Thanks.

- And could you change the sheets?

- OK.

- I was born here.

- I thought so.

I live here

with my grandmother now.

She's really funny.

Sweet, too.

Thanks for coming.

I'm a bit bored of the hotel actually,

you know?

I can't wait

to have some homemade food.

- Gran! Come and sit down!

- I'm coming, son. You start.

- Let's start then.

- OK.

- Thanks for making all this.

- I hope you like it.

- Did you find some?

- Yes.

Yes?

Sabri asked me to marry him.

- What, the hairdresser?

- Yes.

Great.

And I said yes.

- So there you are.

- Well, that's great.

It's good, isn't it?

He's a great hairdresser.

I don't know.

I'm in a bit of a flutter.

But I suppose I should umm...

I think it's a great decision.

I should pack up my stuff.

Why?

Well.

- But really, that's great news.

- Good, I'm glad you're glad.

I mean, he's a good kid.

I don't know.

Let's hope for the best.

- That was tiring, huh?

- Yes.

- But I love the colour.

- Nice, isn't it?

Yes.

And just wait for

the counters to come.

Was your dad still alive?

- Oh God!

- Yavuz? Come on in.

- I'm leaving, Sabri.

- OK. When are you coming back?

We'll see.

Goodbye.

I'm sorry about your dad.

- What's up? Something wrong?

- His father's died.

- Really?

- Yes.

It's tough on him.

Passengers for stanbul!
