Some thoughts on episode 65 of #Hercai

Wait a moment, turn around and remember what you forgot.
Call if you are lost, ask forgiveness if you broke it, forgive if you broke.
Because life is too short.

PRAISE
My praise goes like every week to Ebru and Akin. The way they make us dream ReyMir’s dream with our eyes open even after 65 episodes is simply admirable and incredible. Thank you!
#EbruŞahin
#AkınAkınözü
#Hercai

And of course special praise goes to Ebru for interpreting a labor scene in probably one of the most realistic ways I have ever seen it and this at her young age and first leading role. Kudos Ebru!💜
#EbruŞahin #Hercai

My praise goes of course also to our two directors Ali Ilhan and Erhan Kozan and their teams. I must say I was deeply impressed by the scenes shot in the woods, so also here, congratulations to all of you.

WORDS I LOVED
- M: “If you kill Reyyan, you kill me too.”
- M: “How many people in the world have a heart like yours, Reyyan?”
- H: “Patience torments, but it's berry is sweet.”
- M: “Thanks to you, the weight on our back has turned into cotton wool.”
#Hercai
5
- M: “If we surrender to our fears, nothing would be like it is now.”
- Doctor: “Man is such a creature that he can give up everything, but he never stops hoping.”
- Reyyan: “Everything I love came together in one place. The sea, sky, Istanbul, Miran.”
#Hercai
6
- Doctor: “He told me something like: if something happens to you, then he will not be able to live.”
➡️Miran truly told the doc: “Reyyan yoksa, Miran yok.”❤️

-M: “My wife is strong. We are here because of her power.”

- Azize: “Some things may never come in time.”
#Hercai
7
R: “You are my miracle.”❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

#Hercai

DETAILS I LOVED
- The moment Zehra saw R being threatened by D. she stood in front of her&shielded her with her body.
- Random people give flowers (even men) to R. upon their arrival at the hotel when in S2 he lost it on Harun for a single rose. M. came such a long way.
#Hercai
9
- Who is going to do a “shh” video compilation for this fandom of all the different types of “shh” Miran utters? This episode once again served some great and different kind of “shh”. Asking with puppy eyes.
#Hercai

OPENING SCENE
M: “How can I ease your pain, I don’t know. How many more words I have given to you that I couldn’t keep, I don’t know. Forgive me, you only asked me one thing on that bridge. Make us all three live. I couldn’t do it. Forgive me.”
#Hercai
10
➡️Miran blaming himself for not having been able to keep the only promise Reyyan asked him was so heartbreaking to witness.
#Hercai
11
When he kept repeating after Reyyan had forgiven him that his only life mission was to fulfill all Reyyan’s wishes/promises, he meant it and this scene proved it the way he was breaking down.
#Hercai
12
R: “No u have to forgive me. I couldn't do it.”
M:“What, what couldn't u do?”
R: “I couldn't do that with our U., Miran. I couldn't.”
M:“R., Umut, is he still with us?”
R:"If you want to scream, shout, but I couldn't. For the sake of my life I will not give up my son."
#Hercai
13
R: “You could understand me, right? Even for Miran’s happiness, I cannot refuse our Umut.”
M: “We still have Umut! Yes, yes, come with me. Let's go.”
(...)
#Hercai
14
➡️When R. said: “scream, shout, but I couldn’t” reminded me of how R. probably must have been used to earlier in life when she couldn’t do something&the reactions she normally got were her screaming&shouting dede. Did I say how much I hate Nashu yet?No, I hate u Nashu!
#Hercai
15
M: “Allah gave a miracle to the girl who believes in miracles. The doctor is calling us to Istanbul. He says your hope is here, come and get it. Since his mom didn‘t give up her Umut, he too will not give up his mother, he says. There is still hope, Reyyan.
#Hercai
16
R: Are you telling the truth or are you pretending to make me happy? It's true, isn't it? True, true?I knew, I knew. Honestly, I knew. I believed in you. I said that Miran will come and save us. A miracle will happen.”
#Hercai
17
➡️I loved how Reyyan said for the first time “Miran will come and save us” - very similar wording to the first words we ever heard of her “he will come and save me, I will be his miracle and he will be my miracle too”.
#Hercai
18
M: “We will go to Istanbul, if necessary also with an ambulance flight.”
R: “How will I pay you back for everything?”
M: “By living. Never letting go of my hand ever. I have to be honest though, there is only one shot, there is no guarantee.”
#Hercai
19
R: “I came from those days where there was no possibility at all. From the days in which I wrote a farewell letter to my son. But when I told you, everything changed. If I could have mustered up the courage sooner. U would have turned my nightmare into a dream again.”
#Hercai
20
➡️How emotional were you while re-watching when you realised that Miran said: “By living. Never letting go of my hand ever.” Just to hear Reyyan during labor say: “Hold my hand. Squeeze it.
#Hercai
21
Don't let go of my hand. Don't let go.”
And with it we had a perfect shadowing of their words in the beginning and the ending of the episode.
#Hercai
22
REYMIR TELLING THE NEWS
Once back home at Umut konak we see how Dilsha reacts and her face of “non happiness”. Of course I was mad at her face, yet, I also felt compassion for the very first time with her.
#Hercai
23
I felt compassion because I imagined young Dilsha and what she would have deserved too. The D. “now” sees how everyone is worried about R. and how they are happy that they found new hope for Umut. When she was pregnant no one helped her and no one was there for her.
#Hercai
24
And on top of it, all three people who let her down the most, are present: Hazar, Azize and Nashu. Hazar who didn’t search for his beloved one, Nashu who didn’t help her when she went to ask for help in the first place and Azize who even tortured her while pregnant.
#Hercai
25
Don’t get me wrong, Dilsha remains evil, but in her eyes I saw something that young Dilsha never had: protection from her loved ones.
#Hercai
26
REYMIR AND DILSHA OUTSIDE OF THE BEDROOM
M: “You need to start treatment as soon as possible.”
D: “Of course, you are the same as Azize. Because you are bad, Reyyan. You understood?”
(...) You were raised by Azize, I know you too. You're also as bad as she is.
#Hercai
27
But you won’t shut me down for anything.
➡️I know some of you think that Miran had to be more aggressive and strict with Dilsha. To be honest, I personally loved how calm he was. I think he was so calm also because he was so alienated by his own mother.
#Hercai
28
It was as if he embraced a complete stranger. He couldn’t recognise the woman he remembered in his memories, which he later also tells to Reyyan when he returns from the mental hospital.
#Hercai
29
DILSHA AND THE GUN
R: “In this story, you are the first victim, and I am the second, Dilsha. I called you mother although you wanted me to die. You know why? You shed tears for my father. Showed respect for my mom's memories, because, you are the only daughter of +
#Hercai
30
+ my grandmother and the mother of my Miran.
Do whatever you want. Your place will remain in the corner of my heart. Because I heard you. I heard you. Remember to tape you recorded with teacher Ayla? I heard it, I shed tears for you. What harm can I wish you?”
#Hercai
31
D: “Is that why you embraced Azize, who for years locked me up and took my child away? Tell me why?”
R: “Azize’s sins are great. But I will not pay. I forgave her. That's all. Plus, look. She has already paid the price for her sins in this world.
#Hercai
32
The man she wanted to kill turned out to be her child. There is no excuse for her actions. So it is with your actions mom Dilsha. Pull the trigger if you want, pull it, knowing that nothing will change.
#Hercai
33
D: “They took everything from me. Health life child. The beloved was taken from me. What do you want from me? What more do you want from me? Haven’t I experienced and suffered enough?”
R: “I haven't done anything to you.”
D: “What was my fault?”
#Hercai
34
R: “It wasn't your fault but mine it's neither.”
(...)
H: “You need to be cured first.”
D: “No, no, no.”
➡️Yet again, this scene was very powerful for me. I loved how it was Reyyan once again who was able to calm a heart on fire.
#Hercai
35
To find the right words with someone who has become crazy, yet to say the right words without offending nor hurting. Dilsha is the reason why Reyyan lived through the revenge and nightmare, yet, she talked to her through her heart.
#Hercai
36
I never thought it was possible, but this scene touched me. And I must admit I wished to have seen more of this. I think if they wouldn’t have made Dilsha evil, this could have attracted a hell of a viewership. I cried by the end of this scene.
#Hercai
37
Imagine what scene we could have got if Dilsha knew what Miran did to Reyyan in the first place? Ama yok ...
#Hercai
38
DILSHA SAYING GOODBYE TO AZRA
“My life was lived in anguish, will you leave me too, my daughter?”
➡️I know, I shouldn’t pity Dilsha, yet, her words “I lived a life in anguish, will you leave me too” touched me.
#Hercai
39
Bcs I critzized D. a lot when she tried to committ suicide and for not remembering her “spiritual daughter” in that moment, but D. at that time really felt abbadoned also by Azra as she never called nor ever went back to Kars. And she is living through it once again.
#Hercai
40
DILSHA-HAZAR-MIRAN-CAR
D: “Forgive me. Forgive me for ruining your dreams. For betraying Dilsha from your memories. But I know inside you thought, who is this woman? She could not offend a bird nor a butterfly. You were right.
#Hercai
41
That Dilsha died several years ago, in the room, where she was locked. I apologize for not being able to remain that Dilsha from your memories. I wish I could stay with you like that Dilsha.”
#Hercai
42
➡️Why did I have here the feeling that this was an indirect apology to the fandom for bringing back D. in the first place? Her line “I apologize for not being able to remain the Dilsha from your memories" +
#Hercai
43
+ seemed to be because the fandom in continuation said they wanted to remember Dilsha from the flashbacks and not the Dilsha we saw now.
#Hercai
44
OFF VOICE DILSHA AND OFF VOICE HAZAR
D: “Hazar, I love you so much sometimes I'm even afraid.”
H: “Why are you afraid?”
D: “Parting, life without you.”
H: “It will never be, because I love you very much too. We will never part, no way.”
#Hercai
45
➡️Also this scene, it got me so much. I saw young Dilsha and Hazar sitting under that tree as we saw in the flashback in S2. I felt compassion for Dilsha’s fear because it became reality.
#Hercai
46
OFF VOICE MIRAN CHILD AND OFF VOICE DILSHA
M: “Mom, why are you crying?”
D: “From joy, son, from joy, soon we will go somewhere. I found out about this, so I was delighted.”
M: “Where're we going mom?”
#Hercai
47
D: “Very far away, son, very far away. you, me, and your father. But don't tell anyone about this for now okay?”
➡️What if those words were the last words D. said to toddler M. before she left the night of the shooting to return only after 25 as a complete stranger+
#Hercai
48
+and evil mother? I couldn’t help to see our young D. form the flashbacks who had hoped to finally be able to unite father and son and escape the hell she was living in.
#Hercai
49
Just to wake up&to understand she left one hell to wake up in another hell, without her beloved&without her child.
#Hercai
50
DILSHA-HAZAR-MIRAN-HOSPITAL
D: “Will you keep me here for 25 years too?”
H: “I won’t, u will be cured here and I'll come&take you, I give u my word.”
D: “Don't give me your word. Because this will not happen. I don't have another 25 years, please don't lock me up.”
#Hercai
51
➡️Again, I couldn't not not get emotional. We know that Hazar is promising something he won’t/can’t keep again.
#Hercai
52
REYMIR IN THE ROOM
M: “I saw my mother all the time. I remembered my mother when I was 5 years old. Where, where did that woman go? Where is my mom? Where did that D. go? Has the experience brought her to such a state? Or this Dilsha, was she only in my imagination?”
#Hercai
53
➡️I liked that Miran asked himself those questions. Also because he will once more understand that his true soul companion is only Reyyan.
#Hercai
54
HAZAR AND ZEHRA ON THE ROOF
H: “Are you offended that I'm interested in dilsha, upset for her?”
Z: “Hazard, what are those words?”
H: “If you are offended, then don't. This is not at all like that. Dilsha was my first love, my first youth love.+
#Hercai
55
The person for whom I kept morning. But now... I feel guilty about what happened to her, Zehra. (...) But I know my heart, if I had one more life, I would like to spend it with you. I know, I really can't say that. But, I love you very much, Zehra.”
#Hercai
56
Z: “If I had 1000 lives, I would always choose you.”
➡️I appreciated this scene very much and also that it was clarified that Hazar felt guilt for Dilsha and he was not in love with her anymore.
#Hercai
57
And of course I cried because it was the first and contemporary the last love declaration we heard of Hazar towards Zehra.😢
#Hercai
58
GOODBYE SCENE IN THE YARD BEFORE LEAVING TO ISTANBUL
Although this scene as such was beautiful to see, I will not forgive the writers for not having had one single goodbye scene between ReyMir and Melike. The character and the Asli didn’t deserve this.
#Hercai
59
Our ReyMir guardian angel since episode 1 didn’t deserve this. She was simply cut from the script without any goodbye scene whatsoever! Allooo?? It would have been the perfect opportunity for Melike to come and say goodbye too because e.g.
#Hercai
60
she herself was leaving to go and see her sick grandfather. I needed a Reyyan-Melike hug and I wished to see a Miran-Melike hug too. After Reyyan, this girl endured most of all Miran’s craziness and she never gave up on their love. Imagine a scene like:
#Hercai
61
Melike: “Reyyan, my life friend and future mother of Umut, I am leaving Midyat because my grandfather is sick. They need my help for some time and I came to say goodbye.”
#Hercai
62
Reyyan: “I will miss you so much Melike. You were always here for me, for us. You were the one who helped me always believe in this love, also in the darkest moment you walked side by side with me. Thank you for everything. Come back soon to meet Umut, ok?”
#Hercai
63
Miran: “Melike, I hope your dede recovers fast. Please tell him that he was the person who taught me one of the most important things in life about love and that I will never forget: “Love is only for brave men”.
#Hercai
64
His words helped me to fight for Reyyan, his words made me realize that what I was feeling for Reyyan was love. It helped me stop fooling myself and open my eyes and heart to realize that I was in love with Reyyan. So, I will be forever grateful for his words.
#Hercai
65
I hope he gets well soon and that you can come back to us too.”
➡️A mini scene of two minutes with great impact and worthy goodbye, ama yok.
#Hercai
66
THE RED BEAN CHAIN HAZAR ENTRUSTED TO REYYAN
R: “You entrust it to me and me to Allah, right baba?”
If someone didn’t cry in this scene, he/she is simply lying. I saw Ebru and Akin breaking their character and saying goodbye to Serhat and it was very emotional.
#Hercai
67
I loved it and found it an interesting detail that the bean chain entrusted to Reyyan was RED and this wasn’t a coincidence. And also that for the first time we saw that Hazar carries a bean chain. It was a detail I always wondered about:
#Hercai
68
why didn’t Hazar carry, like Nashu, Cihan, Azat and Azize, a prayer bean. I got emotional at how Mahfuz witnessed the goodbye scene between Hazar and Reyyan and how he looked down to the ground thinking to himself what he had lost as a dad.
#Hercai
69
I got emotional the way the last hug of Reyyan and her family in Midyat was reserved for Hazar.
I got soft the way Hazar blew kisses to Reyyan.
#Hercai
70
I couldn’t help but get goosebumps on how Reyyan looked back at her family through the backside of the window, not knowing if she was the last time ever to see them.
#Hercai
71
FÜSUN-HAZAR-AZIZE
The way Azize convinced or rather tricked Hazar in not shooting Füsun, vay, vay. Once more we see who is the fastest thinker in all this and it’s queen Azize.
#Hercai
72
Yet I was wondering if her hate&evilness towards Füsun will not double after Füsun killed our Yildiz and now also H. Remember her words to Esma in the last episode: “I should have killed F. a long time ago.” If this phrase won’t show up like hemen in the next episode.
#Hercai
73
REYMIR IN THE CAR IN ISTANBUL
All these kisses Miran showered Reyyan with, I need a moment.
#Hercai
74
FIRAT IN THE CAR
Have you seen that Firo was trying to touch Zeynep’s hand but she gave him the cold shoulder? I still can’t figure out what’s up with Zeynep.
#Hercai
75
FLOWER OF PETUNIA
M: “Flower of hope, such a little flower, very delicate. But in spite of everything, they do not lose hope.”
R: “So you found the most correct flower for us too?”
➡️Do we love Miran? Yes, we love him!
#Hercai
76
When shameless Miran is fed by Reyyan, he never takes his eyes off her. And this since the very beginning 😍😌 Yet, look at how far we have come. #Hercai
77
M: “First I need to take vitamin A.”
R: “What vitamin A?”
M: “Vitamina D!” [kisses Reyyan]
R: “Come on, enough vitamina A.”
#Hercai
78
Did you all get that the reused the kitchen word play from ep. 61? And with vitamina A (=ask/love) is meant? And with vitamina D (=dudaklar/lips)?
#Hercai
79
I loved how natural this scene was&of course I loved how we got “böylesi daha güzel” vol.3.
How do they keep up this magic after 65 episodes?
#Hercai
80
ZEHRA’S NIGHTMARE
(Dream) Z: “I need to prepare for my grandson. A lot of people will come. Why isn't it cleaned up, come on?”
(Awake) Z: “Don’t take her away. God, I bet you, I beg you. Please don't take the child away from me.”
#Hercai
81
This nightmare was so heartbreaking to watch because rightfully Zehra thinks she dreams about Reyyan’s death. Very interesting though is that she dreamed of the coffin in the Shadoglu mansion, yet, Reyyan doesn’t live there anymore.
#Hercai
82
It gave me chills how they came up with the idea of using dry leaves to once again use the symbol of the tree as a symbol of life also in this scene. The dry leaves are the last bit that is left from the branches of a tree before they fall off and “die”.
#Hercai
83
And it was done masterfully to later use the sound of rustling, dry leaves in the final scene when Hazar and Cihan are lost in the woods. Did you pay attention to this? You could only hear their footprints on the dry leaves and their voices, but we get there later.
#Hercai
84
Also the heavy wind around Zehra symbolizes the great change that is coming with this death and the final shot on the coffin and how the dry leave went into its direction.🥺 Bravo!!
#Hercai
85
REYMIR LITTLE FIGHTING FOR THE BOOKLET
I will not get tired of repeating how much ReyMir are also born to serve us comic scenes. I loved the way Miran was tricked by Reyyan and the way Miran attacked Reyyan by tickling her.
#Hercai
86
And the detail I loved the most in this scene: did you see how Reyyan raised her finger to Miran? This is normally such a Miran move and now Reyyan uses it too.
#Hercai
87
THE MRI MOMENT
When Reyyan got ready for the MRI she hugged Miran, started walking but turned back again for another hug. This turning-back-for-another-hug reminded me so much of the court scene when Reyyan said she was “fake” pregnant.
#Hercai
88
How she started walking away, just to run back once more to Miran’s embrace. The only difference, back then she said she was pregnant but wasn’t, and now she is. What a long way we have come.
#Hercai
89
And of course the cutest Miran move ever: to show the ecography through the window the whole time, even following Reyyan’s gaze with the picture.
Ah Miran ah, we need to fotocopy you and populate the world with men like you?❤️
#Hercai
90
YAREN’S KIDNAPPING
For the first time I am questioning if Yaren is really pregnant, or if Füsun was smart enough to make her “voodoo woman” lie in order to have Yaren as her hostage so she could use her the way she did now.
#Hercai
91
No way Füsun would agree to kidnap Yaren in such an “amateur” way, I mean that guy nearly dropped an apparently pregnant woman. Would Füsun really endanger her grandson like this when it’s the only thing left from Harun?
#Hercai
92
Yaren, in Füsun’s hands, is the joker she can play against Cihan/Handan/Shadolgu family. So, I am not sure about this pregnancy anymore.
#Hercai
93
HAZAR AT THE PHONE
Guy: “Fusun Aslanbey set up a trap for Cihan. Threatening me, she made me kidnap Mrs. Yaren. She said that we would just scare you. But bad things happen, Hazar bey. I beg you, come.”
➡️I wish that Hazar mostly ran for Cihan and not Yaren here.
#Hercai
94
WISHING TREE
R:“I hang everything on this wish tree that u made me believe. U made me believe in so many things that I was able to dress this tree completely with just one word. Now u have to remember. Here is everything that I believed thanks to u&did not regret it.
#Hercai
95
Do u know what is written on the back of them all?”
- If there is no R., there is no M. - I believed.
- If u jump I will jump after u - I believed.
- Such love exist - I believed.
- This trust exists - I believed.
#Hercai
96
If you are not there, then there's nothing I believe in, Miran.
#Hercai
97
➡️How incredibly beautiful was this scene? I loved the way ReyMir in moments of great sorrow and desperation are able to give back to the other half strength and hope. Reyyan’s convinced “we have nothing to lose, Miran” +
#Hercai
98
+ were the words he needed to hear and to know that they were doing the right thing. I loved that the contractions started under a tree (again we have the symbol of the tree of life) but also because Reyyan wished for their child under the tree back in Urfa.
#Hercai
99
And I couldn’t help it to think about Reyyan’s quote she repeated to Hazar in the last episode: “Hope is like a tree that takes roots in the middle of the desert and out of spite survives.”
#Hercai
100
Also, how they made a “back” connection between Reyyan-Hazar-Umut to trees when R. visited H. in the hospital bed. Remember the vision in ep. 20: “The place where u told me about hope. Remember when you told me that no matter what happens, I should never lose hope.”
#Hercai
101
It gave me shivers to think that Umut’s “sign of coming to life” started under a tree and contemporarily Hazar’s life started ending under a tree.
#Hercai
102
And I will not forget Miran’s words in the next episode: “When I start to forget, these notes will remind us of everything again”.
➡️Can we see him sleep with these notes in his hand close to his heart and read them out loud to Reyyan while she is in coma?
#Hercai
103
HOSPITAL
R: “Don't give me anesthesia, I’ll breathe in my son’s scent at least once. I'll see my baby. I breathe his scent for once.”
➡️If Firo wasn’t the visual representation of the whole fandom in this scene. He cried the way we were all crying in that moment.
#Hercai
104
OPERATION ROOM
R: “I will see you at least once. If something happens to me I will entrust him to you. Only in this way I will leave.”
M: “What happened to my wife who believes in miracles? We believed it. We gave each other our word.
#Hercai
105
In the place where we came to pick up Umut, don't leave your life, okay? The three of us will leave here. You and I will take our son home together, okay?”
➡️I loved how the last shot after those words were on Reyyan’s hand holding close Hazar’s red praying beans.
#Hercai
106
WOODS SCENE
As I said before, did you pay attention to how the sound on the rustling dry leaves was dominant in this scene? The way of shooting this scene at night, with nearly complete darkness around them, visualises how much the two brother’s relationship is +
#Hercai
107
+ in complete darkness and confusion right now too.
The way they were trapped in those woods, unable to see each other, seemed like a labyrinth made out of trees, with no way out. And all we seem to hear are the sound of the dry leaves under their feet.
#Hercai
108
And we know that dry leaves are the last lifeless part of branches. Again we have the “symbol of the tree”and we know that the roots are the parents (Nashu and Azize) and the children (Hazar) as the branches, knowing that “children pay for the sins of their fathers”.
#Hercai
109
Hazar (branch and leaf) is about to die because of the revenge that was started by his own mother. He falls off this tree like a dry, lifeless leaf as this revenge burned him indirectly and brought him to the state he is in right now.
#Hercai
110
“Dried leaves are brown&symbolize death and sadness. Yet they fall to the ground and still influence the growth of the tree because though the leaf dies, it still gives life to the soil which in turn provides nourishment for the tree in the form of nutrients.” (cit.)
#Hercai
111
So if we want to make a very wide interpretation:H. died yes,but with this death,we'll become nourishment for his family tree(=his children&grandchildren).His life was exchanged for the life of his child (Reyyan)&the life of Umut(grandchild),who will continue to live.
#Hercai
112
LABOR
R: “Hold my hand. Squeeze it. Don't let go of my hand. Don't let go.”
➡️I love the way Reyyan insisted on Miran holding her hand when it was since forever him who asked Reyyan: “It's enough for me if you always hold my hand and never let go.“
#Hercai
113
HAZAR GETTING SHOT
Before Hazar gets shot, we see how Cihan and Hazar finally find each other, yet they are divided by a tree trunk until Cihan overstepps it, still pointing his gun at his own brother.
#Hercai
114
I liked the way Cihan overstepped that trunk because it shows that with his actions, he overstepped the red line with his brother too and who is about to get killed because of C’s actions. A quarrel starts between the two and we see how C. and H. ring with each other.
#Hercai
115
Hazar wants to push Cihan out of the woods the moment he gets shot. What followed next was incredible: the scenes get mingled and we see how Azize screams of pain for the life of her son vs. Reyyan who screams because of pain for the life son...
#Hercai
116
Puhh, this was definitely a masterclass in directing and editing. To think about how mothers scream from physical pain when their children are born vs. the scream of mothers from heart pain when their child dies.
#Hercai
117
Yet the labor pain is forgotten at some point because nature is destined to make us forget, but it goes against nature for mothers to survive the death of their own child. To witness these 2 kinds of “pain of mothers”contemporarily was really incredible to witness.
#Hercai
118
UMUT IS BORN❤️❤️❤️
M: “Both of you are here. Together. We are all together”
R: “He is not crying. Something happened. He is not crying, something happened.”

➡️Yet after such an exhausting experience as labor, the mother instinct kicks in within no time and Reyyan rightfully panics: “he’s not crying.”
#Hercai
120
HAZAR SHOT
H: “Help me Cihan.”
➡️Cihan seems numb from shock&is unable to move. We see how A., although being shot herself, starts running to her child&finds the strength to move. Another proof on how mothers forget their own pain when their children fight for life.
#Hercai
121
And we see the same happening back in the operation room with Reyyan. Reyyan, was strong and held it together as long as Umut was not ok. She wanted to hear him cry and she wanted to smell him.
#Hercai
122
Once she sees him safe and sound in the incubator, her strength becomes less and she starts fainting at the same moment also Hazar starts blacking out. Hazar gathers his last strength to utter the words “My children are entrusted to you, mother” and we see +
#Hercai
123
+ how Reyyan drops the beans and how they break the moment Hazar dies. With the breaking of the beans, the protection or rather the promise to not die before seeing each other again, is broken between Reyyan and Hazar.
#Hercai
124
I found it very interesting how they used a RED praying bean for this occasion. And it wasn’t a coincidence. We know how much red is an important color in the whole revenge story. Red is connected to Reyyan’s henna dress and it’s connected to Azra’s hand scarf.
#Hercai
125
Azra was the one who knew the mucize doctor, so she is involved somehow in this miracle, yet it was Hazar’s praying beans who lastly protected Reyyan and Umut and his life was “exchanged” at the cost of Reyyan and Umut’s life.
#Hercai
126
Also interesting to think about how we heard A’s off voice in the very 1st episode:“don’t chose the red.” Whereas that red henna dress was R’s death verdict back then,the red praying beans were her life assurance/continuation this time entrusted to her by her father.
#Hercai
127
And the moment we saw a little glimpse on how also Hazar seemed to have accepted Azize as his mother, the moment life took him away from her. So probably the biggest punishment Azize could ever live through was that in the moment she found her long lost child, +
#Hercai
128
+he dies in her arms as a consequence of the revenge she herself started so many years before. The “fire of revenge” she started, punished her with the death of her own child who dies metaphorically due to this "fire" (=bulletshot),yet in a place surrounded by water.
#Hercai
129
Another thing we need to keep in mind: every time a praying bean breaks in Hercai, it means a new revenge starts. Remember when Aslan died and Azize’s praying beans broke in the hospital? The same way this death will bring a new revenge too.
#Hercai
130
All in all this scene was shot so, so, well shot. I loved the black&white mood of the woods, the tree trunk laying down symbolizing the division between the brothers&the zoomed out drone shot where we can see: +
#Hercai
131
Azize, Hazar and Cihan, all on the same side. Will this death make Cihan and Azize team up against Füsun?
#Hercai
132
PERSONAL COMMENT AT THIS POINT
You all know how much I believed Yildiz to be still alive and it broke my heart when we got the confirmation that she truly wasn’t there with Umut anymore. I think this, together with Dilsha’s unnecessary storyline, +
#Hercai
133
+ is the greatest mistake Hercai writers ever made. Why kill on purpose&only for dramatic reasons an unborn child when no child was killed before in Hercai?Why were all mothers able to reunite with their lost children somehow&only ReyMir are punished with this loss?
#Hercai
134
Why does Umut have to suffer for never being able to have his twin sister by his side? I can’t believe u didn’t make this great parallelism of “all mothers in Hercai reunite” with their child. And I can’t believe u killed Miran’s dream of having a girl just like Rey.
#Hercai
135
And yes, they might have other children and yes maybe a girl, yet, their first born baby girl was killed and remains dead. Reyyan didn’t deserve this and Miran didn’t deserve this after everything they went through.
#Hercai
136
To make her alive would have been the real and absolute mucize because we know that Reyyan and Umut will be fine. So I have to say it: shame on you writers for this decision! If you would have brought the baby girl, I might have forgiven you for Dilsha.
#Hercai
137
This said, for me the real mucize was both babies alive, yet, of course and rightfully, Reyyan sees Umut as her mucize and this is the way the next paragraph has to be read.
#Hercai
138
REYYAN GETTING UNCONSCIOUS
The moment Reyyan sees that her child is ok and being brought away safely, the dream sequence starts. I loved the choice of filming location they used for this shot.
#Hercai
139
Reyyan is with Umut on the land that Miran once defined as: “these are the lands where our faith and destiny was decided for us long before we were even born”.
It was destiny that brought Reyyan and Miran together.
#Hercai
140
It is true that this love was only “planned” for revenge first, yet real love was born out of it. With the birth of Umut this love brought its first love fruit. I especially liked the circular movement of Reyyan spinning around Umut because it can be read as:
#Hercai
141
“What goes around, comes around.” Reyyan believed in her mucize, Reyyan preserved her good heart with everyone and in every situation, no matter what and no matter how hostile the conditions were. And now Reyyan was rewarded with her biggest wish and her mucize.
#Hercai
142
The moment Reyyan got her biggest reward and heart wish fulfilled, was the moment her tormentor got her greatest punishment too. Of course now you will say, but Reyyan lost her beloved dad on this condition and this is true of course.
#Hercai
143
Yet it seems that Azize’s pays for this revenge by seeing her own children die, one by one, and with Hazar, her last child died too. So the fandom got angry (me too) that Azize apparently seemed to be redeemed. But at what cost?
#Hercai
144
Her beloved child, whom she thought dead for a long time,called her sincerely “mother”the moment he died in her arms.Isn’t this the greatest punishment A. could receive?The moment she finally thought she could build a relationship with him,he was taken away from her.
#Hercai
145
And to think about this, I also had to think about Azize’s words: “Some things may never come in time.”
It seems to be true for Azize’s life.
#Hercai
146
MIRAN SHOWING THE NOTEBOOK TO REYYAN
Although this scene was heartbreaking and painful, the way Akin and Ebru delivered here was simply mind blowing. Miran showed Reyyan the notebook and gently lifted her gaze to see the page and read it out loud to her:
#Hercai
147
“We will take our son home together. You see, it says on the last line. We will take our son home together.” And the way Reyyan slowly fainted, with a hinted smile and a tear streaming down her unconcious face!
#Hercai
148
The way we saw how panic crept into Miran’s eyes when Reyyan wasn’t responding anymore. The way we could see his: “you are my breath, Reyyan, I breathe through you, if there is no Reyyan then there is no Miran too” and all this only by Akin’s eyes!!!
#Hercai
149
And to end a bit on a lighter note: I am sure we will have a scene in which Reyyan will tell Miran that she heard his words, the way he heard her words when he was unconscious after falling from the rocks, she will hear him too and come back to him and their Umut.
#Hercai
150
And like every week, aferin sana if you made it down here!😌
And let's not forget, we are officially all teyzes of the cutest baby boy there is, so let's celebrate! We only needed 65 episodes to get here!😅💋

Some thoughts on E.64 of #Hercai
If coincidence hadn’t brought u in front of me, I’d have lived in the same way, but oblivious to everything
U taught me that there’s another kind of life in the world,that I also have a soul

Every week I think that #EbruŞahin and #AkınAkınözü can’t surpass themselves but I think we all agree that they did in episode 64. I have no words left to say but only that I will forever love #ReyMir and the feelings these two can evoc together on screen.

The way they both execute their work and role with love, dedication and respect will never cease to amaze me. And the best summary for episode 64 is: watch and feel it. 💘

I guess I'm not bothering you if I talk about the special ReyMir beauty Ebru&Akin had in episode 63. What keeps me in awe and amaze is how they are still able after 63 episode to make it look like that ReyMir fall in love with each other every day more&more.

Ebru and Akın
Like last week my heart cried with Reyyan and this is thanks to Ebru’s performance also in this episode. The way she perfectly shows what a mother is capable of doing for her child really left me speechless once again.

I loved Miran also in this episode and it amazes me how Akın is able to portray Miran as a man who falls in love every day more and more with his wife. What he said: “I fall in love with you every day more and more”, was truly displayed by Akın’s interpretation.

Mini-thread on the recurrent symbol of the BRIDGE in #Hercai ✨✨

#Miran #Reyyan #ReyMir #EbruŞahin #AkınAkınözü
Let’s begin with asking ourselves, what is a bridge in the firsr place? A bridge connects to riversides that would otherwise run parallel to each other for hundreds and hundreds of kilometers but never touch. They would never touch, if they were not connected by a bridge.
#Hercai
Everything important that happened to ReyMir, happened on a bridge, even the first tantim was shot on a bridge.
