While Firat is grappling with the challenge of newfound responsibility, Can has convinced himself to develop a time machine to interact with Melisa. Enters Sezen (Melisa Pamuk), who herself is grappling with a personal loss but acts as a glue that fills the gap between the father-son duo.
However, things are not as easy as they seem to be. As the loss of Melisa weighs on Firat, he abuses alcohol, which further deepens the rift with Can.

After being mocked by Emrah (Çagdas Onur Öztürk) at a birthday party, Firat becomes dejected and consumes alcohol. Sezen tries to make him understand, but he ignores her and continues his destructive frenzy.
Later, in a fit of rage, he explodes and gets into a fight with Emrah, leaving Can startled and heartbroken as he exits the premises, followed by Sezen. Adding further damage, he makes a snide remark about Sezen's struggle to conceal the agony of losing her brother Kerem (Altay Hacioglu) by pretending he never died, which shocks Sezen.
The next day, he visits his mother, who reprimands him of his acts and points out that Melisa was brave enough to raise Can alone. Finally, she asks him to forgive Melisa and move on, instilling a sense of encouragement in Firat to make things right.

He visits her at a pub where she is seen drinking. He reminds her of their first encounter, when she was in a joyful mood and was drinking heavily celebrating Kerem's admission to his dream college.
