Fatmagul Thread # 3 - Page 84

Compiling today's episode with lots of thoughts flying over me! Difficult to watch things this pacy, but there's the ruthless adrenaline rush that wants makes such discomforting events all exciting to experience... Every bit of it was cruelly enjoyable!

1

Starting from the point where Kaderbhai still working hard to convince Kerim keep quiet. Yes Kerim's under pressure, as explained by @Eirene but his calmness is inevitable for Fatmagul getting justice. When the going gets tough, Kerim, regardless of his improved equation with Fatmagul, still falters to earn her wrath. And that's why the cookie's only half baked, for now. Reforms a work in progress.

2

Fatmagul expressing no fear about anything that can come her way was terrific! She seems to know Mustafa's range, and is quite coolly dealing the threats, for now at least. Natural for Kerim to be extra wary about Mustafa, and how Munir will enjoy that suspicion in Kerim's mind! Exactly like he would have wanted... Love to see Fatmagul go naturally bold, and that's the boon arising from her difficult recovery. At this rate, she has the will and courage to take on everyone even without Meryem, Kerim and Kaderbhai. If the enemy camp is in need retaliation, Fatmagul's bringing truckloads of them behind her... This is where the show is about showcasing the feminine strength, and that of Fatmagul!

3

Mukaddes is doing what she knows to do. Cheat everyone for her own shameless profit! Her creepy talk with Salih was where the rot was evident, and she's a decrepit woman at the core of all problems. Her dreams of illicit future with Salih have never evaporated at all, despite Salih thrashing her demons out in the public! Despite this being bitter, most viewers in the Fatmagul camp will want to see her done away for good, once and for ever.

4

Munir's started games behind Mustafa's back and how accurate of the latter to question him of the flowers incident! Despite them being in the same camp, Munir's playing his own cards which perhaps even Risat isn't remotely aware of... He's using Yasar as an alternate to Mustafa who's all about getting costly return favours and also not fully trustworthy. Except that Risat has paid, all the arrows are from Munir's quiver. With such psychological warfare all around, it's getting extremely interesting, thinking of combinations and possibilities. But is he a match to Kaderbhai's bulls-eye expertise?

5

What a terrific nightmare was that?!! Hats off to whoever worked on her appearance, it was eerily nauseating to her victim Vural! Risat-Munir may buy the town all over, but their prized Vural is languishing in their own backyard. Semsi knew Vural's back to crumbling and that's where the coffin nails are hitting Risat the hardest. Vural's condition is really pathetic, speaking neutrally. Kaderbhai's words are bleeding Vural from within and that's where the first defence line of Yasrans seem cracking. Fatmagul's busy working in her restaurant, when her magnificent zombie double has just started slaying Vural to shreds. That's simply gorgeous in the context of good vs evil! Vural badly wants another chance for suicide now.

6

Munir was at trouble to see Risat and Semsi speaking high of Kaderbhai, who has not even begun his game. What he did to Vural was only a teaser of things to come. Risat feels the trauma already, and at his age and experience, knows how things are flowing. Munir calling Kaderbhai an old drunkard lawyer, even when Vural has just been taken apart was just downright haughty!

7

Coming to E&S, it's Selim's turn to go uncontrollably crazy. Meltem has left him with pain he never had experienced. Him crying out for lawyer Munir was a terribly crestfallen person trying to force himself out of reality. Erdogan manages to drill sense calling it a non-existent relationship and merely a convenient arrangement if anything, even calling it an end game for Turaner's political career. Jailmates have kept the duo under control, else E&S will cut each other to pieces.

8

Meltem's hate for Selim has made her go equally mad. How aptly she measures the strength that hatred brings with itself. Ender was softer to Meltem in many days, now that they have lost everything important for the time being. Turaner has vowed to make Risat pay for everything that's gone awry, and already scheming in that regard. Risat saw this coming too.

9

Meltem and Ender shutting out the Perihan witch was pleasing to watch. Perihan wanting to soften Meltem, and how beautifully Meltem dismissed her all the while giving her love and respect. Risat-Munir's expressions at facing Meltem's divorce notice was awesome... The use of 'motherhood' and relating it to Fatmagul's context was brilliant from Meltem-Ender. Perihan fell flat on her efforts to convince Meltem.

10

Meryem-Fg working super hard at the restaurant was the only easy scene to watch. The ugliest parts to watch where Kerim's riding taunts on Fatmagul without trying to understand her words regarding Mustafa. When trouble strikes, their distrust creeps up, almost questioning their identities. Hate to see Kerim taking potshots on Fg, who's only begun to recover. He's lucky she has kept herself from bursting out, understanding his anxiety over caring for her. The trust deficit needs urgent remedial. Only the duo of Meryem-Fg is free of any mutual suspicion and distrust, Kerim's not behaving well at the moment. All the Istanbul trip has come to nought.

11

"Mubarak ho Mukaddes madam, bahut Mubarak ho" I could hear Ebenine saying that again! The moment she learns it as Salih's wife, she's all on blaming Mustafa and enhancing Kerim's doubts. Kerim totally misreads Fatmagul's love for him, and it was very distasteful of him to allege her of that. Happily enough, Ebenine finds out the reality that Mukaddes hides from them, else it could have been the beginning of another set of troubles. And how shamelessly Mukaddes tries to calm things down! Extremely dirty of her!

12

Vural's had enough and was probably on his way to end his wretched life! I was waiting for him to escape somehow, it would have added severely to the boiling pot of curiosity. By trying to escape, he has confirmed his feelings of guilt to everyone around him. I wonder how this will be interpreted in the courtroom.

The house being in broken state wasn't good to watch. Perhaps Ms Behan has had enough?

I can't help but think of what's going to come upon us tomorrow.

Awaiting your views tomorrow. Good night. Sleep well.

Hello Friends,

Thank you all for ur wonderful post n analysis...I love reading all ur view points and character analysis.
I m crazy about this show.. For the last one month i dont remember how many times i ve watched this show..It seems i cant get enough of it...it has become like addiction :D
Usually I m silent reader but few posts here about Kerim not forgiving his father expecting same from Fatmagul made me share my two cents about the matter.
Whatever happended with FG was very cruel n considering Kerim's role in it one can understand FG doubts n anger towards Kerim for being contradictive.
But from Kerim's point of view, his father is not only the reason for his mother's death but he also abandoned him when he was only 6 years old n for years(for almost a decade i believe) he didnt come to take him back with him nor wrote to him n then suddenly he started sending him letter. when his father left him he was kid n by the time his father wanted to contact him he must be around 18- 20 years old. n what he did to connect with his son... just sending letter wont heal him. he should have atleast come to meet him. Time is also crucial in forgiving anybody... saying sorry after so many years wont give him back his parentless childhood. He never even got an opportunity to complain or share/ unload his anger on his father. So, Kerim being angry with his father,i think is justifibale.
wheresas in Fatmagul's case, Kerim was there for her. helping her...asking for forgiveness...trying in every possible way to make her life easy...i m not ignoring his role in FG's incident...but we all saw his efforts for redemption.
Both FG n Kerim are in a way similar...
I hate Mustafa.. he is really characterless ass****. he is not worthy of anything... But see FG too could not forgive Mustafa when he came to her house asking forgiveness after he learned truth from Kerim. coz that time was passed. As I said earlier Time is very crucial if u not take efforts at right time then its of no use...
So at this point of their life I can understand why Kerim is being angry n resentful towards his father...(Spoiler Alerts: In future we will see how he not only forgive his father but also accept him as his Baba)
