The team arrived in Mersin in order to congratulate Taylan on the birth of his son. Kadri appointed Zeynep and the player to first reach to the hospital, and they will follow them after. Zeynep sighs and says that she has been bored lately, so she will is gonna take a smoothie, we went on a smoothie bar and Zeynep took a "Blueberry Passion Smoothie", however we hard screams from nearby, we decided to check up, when we arrived there we found a dead body of Akın Erkök and there was blood everywhere, we send the body for autopsy. We later proceed to find clues, we found out a university name tag alongside the body, we deciphered the name and it belonged to a certain named Aslan Çağlar who was the fourth-year student of Koç University, we decide to interrogate him, but we remembered that Arslan has warned them that we should be beware while talking to Aslan because the Çağlar were famous for their fierce temper. We interrogate Aslan about the victim, he says that he has no idea about the victim, he just came to Mersin for finding his family because they have been missing for many days. After talking to Aslan, Zeynep exclaimed that Aslan wasn't as Arslan had stated about him, Tierre was passing through and teased Zeynep by calling her "simp", she shrugged her and said that she isn't in love with Aslan. We later found out that Akın had a meeting with English socialite Amanda Mackay, we decide to debrief Amanda about knowing the victim. Amanda tells us that she had to give a interview to Akın about her life as a socialite, she was saddened on Akın's demise. Following that conversation, Zeynep says that Akın was well-known journalist however he had a shady life and no one knew about it. We found out that Akın was to meet photographer Fırat Aydoğan due to some personal work, we decide to ask Fırat about Akın. Fırat tells us that Akın had hired him as his personal photographer, we ask him about Akın's life, he says that he has no idea about his personal life. At the precinct, we were discussing the murder details, Eylül approached us and says that Arslan has been missing for a while.
Mid-investigation, Eylül approaches us she was extremely worried, sweat was dripping from her forehead, we ask her what happened she tells us that Arslan has been missing and not picking up his phone, we calm Eylül down, she tells us that Arslan was precious to her family and her, and he always goes missing which causes her to be extra worried, she tells us when they were kids, Arslan saved her from a bully, who was older and taller than him, but he had enough power to hit him in the face and saved Eylül from the bully, and from that day she made a pact that she will also protect him. We hear Merve calling us, we went outside, only to see she and Nadeem holding Arslan, whose white shirt was covered with blood. We were shocked and asked Merve how this all happened, she said we don't have enough time, she'll tell them soon, after we drop Arslan in his lab we call a doctor, we ask to Merve about the incident, she tells us that she and Arslan were talking to Ceren Ayhan, who was telling them about Akın's life. We decide to interrogate Ceren about Akın, she greets us and tells us that Akın had a shady life, she along with Mert found out that Akın was a serial killer who had killed various people around Turkey and Belgium, she also tells is that Akın is the most wanted in Brussels and the Belgian authorities have announced the prize of €1000 to the individual who would catch him. We thank Ceren about providing us vital piece of information. We proceed to check upon Arslan, Florin tells us that the doctor said that the wound was fatal and he is trying to save him, we later hear that Hande Aktay has been giving news about the incident that happened with Arslan, we interrogate her about this, she tells us that this incident is alarming because HG might be behind that, we ask her why HG is behind it, she explains to us that Akın was affiliated with HG She tells us that Akın was supplying them with inner information and kept spying on TPF, Zeynep exclaims and says that they were being spied by Akın and they didn't even had the idea that someone was spying on them. Following it, Tierre approaches us and tells us that Taylan has something important to tell them, we then went to the hospital, and Taylan tells us that Cassandra wants to get a leave for few days, and wants to spend time with Casper, but he also tells us that Cassandra's father secretly married a woman without Cassandra even knowing, Cassandra barges in and says that her mother betrayed her dead mother, and she will never see his face again, she slams the door. We were shocked, and decided to console Cassandra, she brushes us off and says that she vital piece of information, she tells us that Aslan was being verbally abused and getting threatened by Akın. We proceed to ask Aslan that why Akın was threatening him, Aslan tells us that his family have been accused of murder, illegal business deals and selling of drugs, and Akın threatened to kill him even though Aslan didn't have any participation in these crimes since his family never payed attention to him. At the precinct, we were discussing murder details, we were approached by Tierre who tells us that Arslan is on the brink of death.
Mid-investigation, Tierre tells us that Arslan is on the brink of death, because the wound was really fatal and he lost a lot blood, we were worried and went pale that we cannot lose someone this early, Florin tells us that we should arrange blood as soon as possible, we proceed to get blood from the blood bank, when we reached there, it was closed due to some complications, we got worried that if we didn't arranged blood as soon as possible Arslan would die, worried enough, Ceren noticed us and asks us what happened, we tell her that Arslan needs blood, she says that she knows about a blood bank, we ask her about the location, she tells us that where the blood bank is located was once a opulent house owned by her ancestors, but after the murder of her great-great grandparents, the family moved to Istanbul, we ask her how her great-great grandparents died, she tells us that they were dreadfully murdered in 1923, and there bodies was discovered seventy two years later in 1995. We were puzzled, we then remembered that HG was also formed in 1923, and they would be the one who killed her great-great grandparents. We then proceed to get blood, and we were successful, we hoped that this would manage to save Arslan, as his life was precious to us. Eylül tells us that she and Merve found out a threatening note in Arslan's shirt's pocket, she tells us that it was a threatening note which was sent by Demeter, in which it said that Arslan went too far with the investigation, and he would pay for it. We speculated that Demeter was the one who would have ordered or stabbed Arslan, we then proceeded to find more clues, we found out that Akın had been member for many years, and his family were the closest companions of the HG's leaders for decades. In the end, we had enough evidence evidence to incriminate Fırat Aydoğan for the murder, upon admitting Fırat says that he is glad that he killed Akın, because he deserved to die for what he has done to him. He confesses that he and Akın were friends for a long while, although the age difference never mattered, they had mutual likes. However, he fell in love with a girl named "Özge", who was extremely enchanting and beautiful. With the relationship progressed, Fırat noticed that Akın is kinda of jealous from his relationship, although he ignored it, but one day he caught Akın asking Özge to send him explicit photos of her, although she disagreed but Akın was pressurising her, Fırat confronted him, but he denied and the friendship was broken, things got better between Fırat and Özge, and they decided to get married soon, on the day of their wedding, Özge went missing, and Fırat began to search for her, he eventually found her dead body outside the parlour, Özge was dreadfully murdered with pins stabbed onto her forehead. Fırat fell into deep agony after the event, but one day he overheard Akın talking about murdering Özge and no one finding it, after he heard it, he confronted Akın, but he laughed into his face and said he would suffer the same fate, and Akın began to beat Fırat, for his self-defence he grabbed a hammer and hit Akın with it, eventually killing him.
After Fırat's confession, we then visit Taylan in the hospital, when we reach there, Taylan tells us that his wife has been discharged from the hospital, and now he will pursue his duties, we tell him that he should be looking over his wife for few days, as she recently gave birth, he said that if he didn't does his duty, who else will and then steps back, we then arrive at the station, Merve was setting up some party, we ask her what it was supposed to be for, she tells us that today is Tierre's birthday, and she wants to surprise him, Arslan was also supervising her, and was helping her setting up the decorations, we then visit Tierre at her lab, she was getting her daily facial and manicure, we also her why she was getting them, she throws bubble from her mouth and says "Just to look sexy", Zeynep then laughs and says "Pardon me”? Then both proceed to laugh like kids, Eylül listens to loud noise of the laughter and barges into Tierre's lab, and shouts and says "Can you both shut up, I am trying to do some work here" Tierre than laughs and says she doesn't care, we were then approached by Elif who demands our help, by seeing Elif, Zeynep frowned and forcibly interrogated her, we ask what type of help she needs, she tells us that she has been noticing for a long time that Mert has been rarely focusing on studies and spends most of time outside, he also has become rude and aggressive towards her, the change of his attitude is bothering her, however she tells us that Onur also has been worried for Mert, because Mert totally neglects and him and Onur rarely talks now, as if his whole world is destroyed, Elif says that she has tried her best to console him but he doesn't glow up, Zeynep smirks and whispers to herself that it is the best time to get attention of Onur, if she successfully consoles him with coping with Mert's neglecting. We then arrive back at the birthday sport, we see that most of the decoration, we then hear some loud noises from Nadeem's lab, we went inside the lab and it was Arslan saying "Bro, wear this, it would look sexy enough for Tierre to catch your attention", the issue was resolved and we then decided to celebrate the party, Eylül and Cassandra along with Zeynep, came with Tierre, Cassandra has placed her hands on Tierre's eyes, everyone yells "Surprise" and Tierre chuckles and says that she can't believe that the team had surprised her, while we celebrating Arslan accidentally tripped and all of his champagne landed on Eylül's expensive dress, she yelled "How dare you ruin my expensive dress, do you even know how much it costs", Arslan then apologised to her and said he didn't mean to do that, Eylül then laughs and says that it's alright, following the celebration ended, we decide to take rest, but Taylan calls us in his office, he tells us that HG's violence has been increasing and their leader is still unmasked, he tells us that he gets suspicious vibes from Simon Sams because he hasn't been cooperating with the team, Zeynep then says that she gets suspicious vibes from Elif, following this we turn on the TV, a news was circulating on media that a prisoner named Roma Balogh had escaped prison, this was intimidating situation, and we immediately reported about it to Taylan, he tells us that Roma isn't a threat to them, but her escaping prison rises some questions, he tells us that Roma most likely has escaped towards Adana and we should reach there before losing any time.
