==Plot==
The team arrived in İzmit in order to eliminate the threat of HG. Although the remaining members were in our custody, so we don't have to worry about them, but the third traitor is still on loose, and we should arrest them real quick, before anything else happened. There was chaos everywhere, we already had lost many members and allies, and we couldn't afford to lose more, there was already chaos. Zeynep was feeling extremely nauseous today, she tells to Arslan that she feels something bad is about to happen, on the other hand, Mert also arrives, he was also really disturbed, as he claimed something unfortunate is going to happen, Arslan also felt the same, but didn't express. Sometime later, Onur enters the station in hurry and haste, and tells us that Avtandil and Bryan have departure from here in deep anger, and he is really worried, he doesn't want to loose anyone. Sofia arrives there and says "Hurry up, we gotta save Bry and Avtan, before it's too late". However on our way, we heard an explosion and followed it, as we progressed further, we saw Bryan sitting on the ground, Sofia runs to him and says "Are you alright Bry, where is Avtan". Bryan looks at her and says "He is dead". Sofia then went pale and uttered "What", Arslan then also said "Are you being for real, it can't be". We then moved further, and it was indeed Avtandil, who was exploded to death, our life was ruined, it seemed like a part of ourselves died, and now we lost Avtandil. Zeynep gathered enough courage to send the body for autopsy. Sofia, Onur and Mert take Bryan back to the station. After arriving back at the station, everyone was wondering what had happened, Mert told everyone about Avtandil's death, and everyone feel into deep misery Merve had dropped her coffee she was holding. After getting enough senses, we decide to talk to Bryan and ask him what had happened. Bryan was still in shock, he says that he and Avtandil were going to confront HG about their plans to kill them, and Avtandil wanted to make peace, however when he realised there was bomb in the car, he kicked him out and he died, but he survived. Onur was also saddened and so was everyone, he said that he couldn't believe that someone had the guts to kill Avtandil. After that we begin to interrogate Sofia as she was the closest person to Avtandil, along with Bryan. Sofia was also extremely desolated and fierce that she'll kill the person who had slain Avtandil, we ask her if Avtandil was tensed these days. Sofia says that he was having a heated arguments with HG, and especially Matthew who was constantly threatening to kill everyone. After Sofia's interrogation, we see the department's situation everyone was sad, and then we hear a evil laugh from outside, and it was none other Amanda. She barges inside and says that she is so glad that Avtandil is dead, and now we have lost our saviour and no one can save us now, however Zeynep grabbed her by her hair to debrief her about it, Zeynep was really mad that why she would even pretend faking her depression, she smirks and says that she wanted everyone to believe that she was now redeeming herself, but it wasn't, she had organised a party due to Avtandil's death, and we didn’t allow her to do so. After that, we discover that Taylan had made an agreement with Avtandil, regarding HG and TRO, we interrogate Taylan about their agreement. Taylan tells us that TRO wanted Avtandil to control it, as he was the senior of everyone, and Onur had requested him to assume the position as the leader, and he had agreed on it. The autopsy results revealed out that Avtandil died due to bomb blast. At the precinct, we were discussing details, Mert comes to us who tells us that Matthew and Eylül have declared a war with us.
Mid-investigation, Mert tells us that Matthew and Eylül had declared war on us, want us to fight with them, but since we were investigating Avtandil's murder, this was impossible, because we had to find his killer real quick, before HG does anything because they would obviously benefit from his death, however we first decide to bring Matthew to the station to interrogate him, and after some time Aslan and Aydın bring him to the station, Matthew then calls Aydın "sexy" as usual, but now we had to interrogate him. Matthew starts to laugh that with Avtandil being no more, he can make love with her, Onur and Arslan, saying that he cannot his desires whenever he sees them, but Zeynep shows her a middle finger to him and calling him a "Whore of the nonces". We then went off, before showing another middle finger to him. After that, Onur comes to us, he tells us that Aslan and Elif are arguing with each other over something, and he is not sure what is the reason. We decide to check upon them, and we find out that Aslan had been keeping her away from fighting HG, but she wants to fight with them, we ask Aslan what bothers him, he tells us that he had lost his girlfriend, in the same process like this, and he doesn't want anyone else to be the victim of it. Zeynep then felt sympathy for him, Arslan who was passing by said that this story reminds him of his ex-girlfriend, who died due to cancer, and he still misses her. Eylül then comes to the station, and holds Merve on gunpoint, she demanded us us to submit herself to them, but Ceren kicks her and the gun drops to the ground, and we decide to interrogate her. Eylül says that we should leave her alone, because if we hurt her, she'll make sure that we won't see another day, but we insist her to reveal about Avtandil, and her reaction on his death, as usual she begins to laugh that their biggest obstacle is now no more, and it would be child's play to defeat us. She says that they have devised a huge plan for the country and we'll know about it soon. After that, Merve comes to us, she tells us that she had found that Avtandil was gonna disburse all of his money among them, as he considered all of us as his children, and now she is really saddened by his death, everyone was coping with it, however she also tells us that Bryan and him had fought each other on this purpose. We debrief Bryan about this, he tells us that Avtandil wanted to give all his money to everyone, but Bryan disagreed as this money belonged to him, and he was it's rightful owner, however Avtandil said all the money he earned was for Mélodie but now she is dead, that money means nothing to him, and he donated all his money to the poor, and the remaining to everyone in TRO and Sofia and Bryan. Zeynep was even more broken that why would someone kill Avtandil, but then again he had many enemies, who would get him off the track. We search HG's hideout and we find out Amanda's mugshot which was taken back in 2017, and she had been arrested for attempting to murder Avtandil in London, we were puzzled and interrogate Amanda about it, she confesses that on New Years Eve she went to a party and had drank excessively, even though being underaged that time, she then went drunk, and she had drawn a gun on Avtandil, while being drunk, but she didn't shot it, as she wasn't in her senses, but she still had to pay for it, and from that day, she had developed a grudge on him. Arslan comes to us, he says that he is going to replace Zeynep, since the killer might be dangerous, and might try to hurt her, so it's better that he joins us, and Zeynep also agrees as she was experiencing headache. After Arslan joins us, Ceren approaches us, she tells us that Sofia and her were talking earlier and she told her that Avtandil had gave her his land, but she also ignored it. We debrief Sofia about this, she tells us that she was already thankful for Avtandil for saving him from the goons but he was doing to much for her, and she didn't do anything for him in return, and when she heard that he was giving her one of his land, she turned it down, and she didn't rightfully deserve this, her all concern is that, we should find his killer real soon. At the precinct, we were discussing details, Merve tells us that Matthew has tried to hack them.
Mid-investigation, Merve tells us that Matthew had tried to hack into their systems, and tried to take important and personal information but she managed to save it from being hacked, we then decide to grill him and demand an perfect and logical explanation from him. However before we do that, we protect ourselves from Matthew's lust and his creepiness. We debrief him, Matthew was now cross that how we even dared to stop him from getting important information about Avtandil, we asked him why would he even try to gather much information about him, Matthew explains that their next plan involves him, even though he is dead, they will still do something with him, Arslan realised that they wanted to do something with his body and he had informed everyone about it. Onur and Mert had managed to save his body and hide in it in a ice room, which wasn't known to HG, and then we will grant a proper funeral to him. Onur also tells us that he is thinking of renaming TRO to "Avtandil Resistance Organisation" in the memory of Avtandil, and his sacrifices for them, we strongly agreed on this. After that, we find out that Taylan and Avtandil had a fight with each other, and Taylan had threatened to get him out of the way. We were now puzzled that why would he do that. We grill him for this, Taylan tells us that Avtandil was so much into their matters, and he didn't want any mobster to interfere into their matters, as he still believed that he was still a mobster and evil and that's why he was fighting with him. However it proved to be nothing, Arslan then gets informed that Eylül had tried to set the department on fire and so his car. Arslan didn't want to talk to a bitch of a sister like him, but he still gathered enough mind to talk to her. Eylül was so angry that why doesn't his asshole of a brother dies, so she could breath in relieve, she says that she already had enough of him, and she doesn't even need a younger brother, all is just pain for her, just like Avtandil was to them, Arslan was now better and said he won't care if she died, and he wouldn’t give a damn about her. After that, Merve tells that we should arrest the killer real quick now, and we had enough clues. In the end we had enough evidence to incriminate Taylan Yağmur for the murder, we were extremely shocked that why would he even kill Avtandil. Upon admitting, Taylan denies to the accusations against him and said that he would never turn his back on the team, and always supported them to defeat HG. However, after we presented more proofs, Taylan smirks and starts to clap and says that he is extremely proud of us, that they even managed to figure that he was the killer of Avtandil, not only that he was the traitor they have been looking for. Taylan begins laughing and saying that how fools we were to believe him, when in reality, he had always helped HG. He begins to elaborate that all of this was an acting, and he was supporting HG from the start, and even had ordered Eylül to kill Tierre because she knew too much. He begins to explain that Avtandil was the hardest nut to crack, and since he was extremely powerful, they tried to get him off the track slowly. He and Eylül had devised a plan to kill Tierre, so it would be easy to eliminate the others, and Amanda killing Mélodie was another point to weaken him. However according to their plan, they had Florin try to assassinate him, and then he also went through that, however when Avtandil killed him to protect his people, they had found another way to weaken him, and they always had tried to assassinate him, then they had devised a plan that they would use his own people against him. Eylül, Matthew and him made the grand plan to hypnotise Sofia, so all of the blame could he put on her, however we had saved her from getting imprisoned, if she had been imprisoned, Avtandil would spend most of it's money on getting her out. Taylan then begins to tell us that Avtandil was so protective towards TRO and the team that he even had considered giving his life up for them, however he had decided to play it off cool, and then devised a plan to kill Avtandil. However it was extremely risky. However it was extremely risky as TRO and team was always there to protect him, and he had planned his murder in a haste but it was successful. According to the plan, Taylan would send him a message in which he would lie to him that he has kidnapped Sofia and others, because if something like this would happen, Avtandil would be extremely fierce, and it worked, he already had set the bomb in his car, and after a lot of persuading he managed to fall Avtandil into his trap, and he along with Bryan went off from the department in anger, Taylan was now even more glad that two people would die at the price of one, however Avtandil already had realised that there was a bomb, in the car, he had threw Bryan out, and only going a little but further it exploded, and his plan was now successful. Taylan started to laugh that their biggest obstacle is no more in the way, and we can't do anything to stop them. After that he takes out his gun and shoots Arslan with it, however before he does that, Bryan shoots Taylan in the chest before uttering the words "An eye for an eye asshole", and Taylan drops to the ground.
After Taylan's confession, Bryan shoots him and Taylan drops to the ground, we didn't even bothered to check whether he was alive or not. At the department, everyone was exceptionally astonished due to Taylan's betrayal, and it was immensely hard to believe that he had killed Avtandil and was the third traitor. However Arslan gathered everyone near him and says that we all should be united now, and we should be there to help each other in defeating HG. Amanda barges inside the department, along with Matthew and Eylül, who draws their guns on us. Amanda then holds Bryan by collar and says that how dare he try to kill Taylan, and we all pay for it, but Bryan then shrugged her off and said "He needed to die, that motherfucker needed to die". Matthew and Eylül were taking Taylan to the hospital, however before he could do it Onur, Mert, Sofia, Ceren, Aslan and Aydın shot Taylan all over his body, and he died in front of us. Amanda then fells to the ground and says "How dare you", Matthew and Eylül tried to kill us, but even after we killed Taylan, they turned scared, and didn't tried even to cause anything, Mert stepped forward and said "Look now, your member died in front of you, and now you all lost, you are losers, we won, justice won". However Amanda gets up and looks Mert in the eyes and says "You can't defeat, you definitely can't", Matthew then steps forward and says that today is the day then we will be defeated, and HG will take over the country. Amanda then challenges us that if we defeat her in Istanbul she'll stop her crimes and HG would disappear from existence, the three say "Wait for the fate" before going off. Now we were more concerned about this, however Zeynep reminds everyone that we have to arrange funeral for Avtandil, and we all start to prepare for it. Onur tells us that he has renamed his organisation to "Avtandil Resistance Organisation" to honour Avtandil. After that we began preparations for the funeral, however we were concerned about HG, we feared that they might try to kill us at the funeral. Taner and Aydın went off for the preparations, everyone else started to get dressed for the funeral, as it was going to be a grand funeral for Avtandil, after that we receive a letter from the government official in which they had also send some money for Avtandil's funeral as they also believed that he was a hero and king and needed to have a grand funeral, they had send us help. We were really glad that they considered this as an appropriate act and we had send them a thank you message too. Since we had help from the government, we thought that there won't be any query on the funeral. Aydın calls us he tells us that they have selected a place that HG haven't heard about in their whole life, and he will be sending us directions, from some secret ways to reach there. After that, Matthew and Eylül come inside the department, both of them say that Taylan was dead, but we can't do anything to anything to save ourselves from getting killed, however both of them smirked before leaving saying the country is about to blow up soon. After that, Onur gathers everyone around him and holds a meeting "My lads and girls, as you already know Avtandil sir has been killed by Taylan, but we all have to avenge his blood, and we all should be united to defeat HG, and if we do that as a team, we'll sure defeat them". Everyone then holds each other hands to pledge that they would never turn their back on each other, and would defeat HG, and save our people. Mert then says that we all are running late for the funeral, and all of us check the surroundings to check whether Matthew and Eylül were around or not. Since the way was clear, we all divided ourselves in two groups and went off from the department in three cars, in the way we were keeping an eye whether HG was following us or not. However the way from we were going looked like that no one had stepped foot here for ages, and the surroundings were really old and after at least twenty minutes, we reached to the funeral. Aydın and Taner said we were on right time, and some government officials also are attending his funeral. At the funeral, everything was peaceful, and HG didn't intervene fortunately, before we had to bury Avtandil, everyone stepped forward to present a speech on Avtandil. Everyone gave an remarkable and memorable speech on Avtandil. 
However at the and, Sofia and Bryan stepped forward to present a speech to the audience on Avtandil. Bryan starts it "Ladies and gentlemen, I am Bryan Castiglione and this is Sofia Khurtsidze, both of us were the closest people to Avtandil, and were like his children, he was a king, who had saved us from falling into the trap. Sofia then continues with "He is right, Avtandil devoted him life to ourselves, he sacrificed himself for us, and I am sure he'll be proud of us and TRO if we defeat HG". Everyone else loved the speech but appreciated it without applauding. After that, Avtandil was to be buried here, and TRO and the government decided to construct it into a mausoleum, and name it "Avtandil Mausoleum". After that, Onur calls Sofia and Bryan to a side and says "Bry and Sof, you both were the closest people to Avtandil sir, and now HG would try to hurt you, but their main target is me, allow me to take the bullet of your name". However Bryan and Sofia disagreed and said they'll die, when they have too. After that, we all departure for the department. We already had reached to the department, however half an hour passed but Onur didn't arrive yet, this was surprising as Onur is a fast driver but this time he is getting late. 
After waiting for another half an hour, we were now concerned about it so Arslan and Mert decide to check upon them. Both of them went through the way they came from and in the centre of the road, they found Onur's car with no one inside. We find a note pinned to the window of his car which said "You thought you could fool us, no you can't, if you don't show up at Istanbul today, they will be dead". We were shocked that HG took Onur, Aslan, Elif and Sofia, and now they had challenged us. We moved a little bit further, however Arslan also disappears, and Mert starts to say "Where TF are you Arslan, come out". However we notice him being taken into a van, Mert runs behind him and throws a huge rock at the van but they had escaped. He then arrived back at the station. Everyone asked him what had happened, Mert tells us about the kidnappings and we all were now shocked and saddened believing that HG might do something else, and we know they were in Istanbul, and we didn't have enough time. However we hear a news from Merve, who tells us that there has been three attacks in Istanbul outside Hagia Sophia and Dolmabahçe Palace and the government had announced nationwide curfew. We had no time left whatsoever, we needed to act quickly. Now our next destination was Istanbul, and we need to be there before time, as the safety of the country and the world was now in our heads, and anything could happen. We departure for Istanbul as the safety of the country was in our control.
