I'm Jealous - With Past, Present and Future
What is a Diwali night without fireworks? In spite of several bans for bursting them by authorities here, we lit the night skies with festive fervor sparks to show unbounded energy, spite to push away the darkness and spunk to break all the rules!
Eylul, our Patakha Guddi (literally meaning firebrand) did what she knows the best after she realized the cheap tricks played by ZN.
The physical contest reminds us of a bull ring where a nervous matador faces a raging bull. He performs a series of passes and observing the behavior and quirks of the bull negotiating their past, present and future.
Many of us have shared disgust on Eylul's reaction to knowing the pinch of truth. But what better could she have done? Sob like a weeping willow and resign to fate or jump in for a comfortable hug into AA's arms or wash dirty linen in public with Purex for every lie or truth??? I believe letting go her bottled emotions was the best way to put the past behind and AA would replace every tear drop from Eylul with unlimited happiness in the future. #RelationshipGoals.
Nursing his grudges carefully, Sinan tries to instigate Esma but she believes that past is a sunk cost. ;-) Oguz tranquilizes a hyper active Ipek, their eyes twinkle in hope of a future.
Paratrooper Ali recues 2 kids from the abandoned sump. Wait did me write 2 kids, read it as 3 including Alp!! Faulty Hypothalamus it is.
A bitter Nesrin's rendition of I just called to say I Love You is over heard by Ipek. Didn't they say that three is a crowd? While we still "Wonder, the energy bunny IpekCell keeps going on and on until a jealous Selma decides to pull the battery from the remote control of infidelity. Ibrahim and Selma are the clumsiest cartoons to say "Crime doesn't pay and plan for a garden tea party too? 
Alp is unware of his envious position - A loving girlfriend, best doctors to treat and great friends to care. What is he waiting for, Xmas party????
Eylul cheers up a wounded Selim who is cynical of his future, but he does show recovery. :-)
Vedat being attacked by jail mates was like pot calling kettle black. Phew.
Generally the past and present are not supposed to meet; it would create an anomaly called jealousy.
Eylul turns to a punk without a fairy godmother and the glass slipper replaced by leather boots. Other dizi leads envy, KA's pride. J. Okyu looked drop dead gorgeous every inch.*flying kisses*
The subtle glances into her room while the tomes of books are opened and she contemplates wearing the ring was badly edited. Was she looking for answers in those books or was she mentally weighing carats of the diamonds? ;-) On a serious note, it was like a revolving doors of past and present books strewn in Ali's room where she gets answers to her teenage crisis and now the ring answering her to trust Ali during this crisis.
The ring becomes the lighthouse of hope and turns into jealousy when Ali realizes that it's Mehmet who has been called for a Shoulder to cry on As A Service *SAAS*!! And to counter this emotion, he gives her dosage of a signature AA treatment. *hearty eyes*
Gokhan and Okyu have capitalized on their chemistry and improvised these scenes so well that such clips easily make it to actors manual.
Btw are those BTS pictures on Okyu standing on few bricks out? Or did they used fish eye lens to even the height difference? ;-)
A random case of a pet dog's bite causing cancer and Ipek's abla, blah, blah, gives me a strange feeling that the Cheeko (dog) might be operated by Ali Asaf!
It was very endearing for the writers to bring in the cases of the economically weaker sections who cannot cover expenses for their treatment. The plot would be complete if any of the doctors/staff share the burden - Hippocratic Oath upheld.
Ali-Eylul of have shown a great growth in character in facing the adversities rather than running away from them. And did they argue on winds of change.*rolling eyes*
And why is few drops of jealousy good in love? Kim bilir, it takes them to future to share their longing for 10 years or help connect dots and bust Sinan's sins or show them the possibilities how love can be best cure for Alp and everyone...
My dedication to this week's episode
I used to believe
We were burnin' on the edge of somethin' beautiful
Somethin' beautiful
Sellin' a dream
Smoke and mirrors keep us waiting on a miracle
On a miracle
Say, go through the darkest of days
Heaven's a heartbreak away
Never let you go, never let me down
Oh, it's been a hell of a ride
Driving the edge of a knife
Never let you go, never let me down
Don't you give up, nah-nah-nah
I won't give up, nah-nah-nah
Let me love you
Let me love you

PS:
Attention stylists - You change the hairstyle of the nurse from fish braid, straight hair or curly toupee. We can recognize her. Dammit!
Fatih was kept away because Aytec wanted a full grown beard naturally? For he looked like a reject from a screen test sequel of Cast Away ;-)
Esma & Alp's inhibition to privacy and Esma dropping hot liquid exactly where it matters was slapstick. *cute*
Why didn't Eylul confide with Esma on the new found truth, wasn't she her bestie AND the "only family as per episode 1??
