## Plot

The team arrived in Adana in order to catch Roma Balogh as she had escaped from prison, we were speculating that she might have escaped to take revenge on Hell's Gate, because they ruined her life. Arslan was extremely tired and yawning, Taylan yells and asks us to come into his office, he asked Arslan that why he is lazy at the time of the job, Arslan yawns again and opens his mouth wide open and says a arm pain bothered him all night, Taylan says that we don't have time for discussion and should find Roma asap, we receive a call from Simon Sams, he tells us that he found his sister dead in his office and he doesn't know how did that happen, Taylan tells us that we need to report to the crime scene real quick, Arslan sets his messy hair and we head to Simon's office. After arriving there, we saw the body of Rebecca Sams, she was a well known socialite, as well as Simon's sister, we send her body to autopsy and interrogate Simon regarding the murder, he tells us that he was outside when the murder happened, and had no idea that Rebecca was murdered in his office, he tells us that Rebecca and him never got along, but her death hurts him to the core, we ask Simon if he had seen Roma, he tells us that he hasn't seen her. We arrive at the station, Arslan says that he had admired Rebecca because of her hot looks, Merve was standing there and quickly said that Rebecca wasn't even that hot, Arslan teases her and says she is just jealous of her, we receive a call from Onur, his voice sounded extremely deep and low, we ask him what happened, he tells us that he has found Roma, she is roaming outside with a disguise, we thank him, we then started searching for Roma, and caught the attention of a very suspicious looking woman, we proceeded to her, and asked her some frequent questions, however She dodged the questions, and we immediately realised that it was Roma, we unmasked her, it was indeed Roma, she said "Shit" and tried to run away, however we managed to catch her and handcuff her, we grabbed her to the station and asked her why she escaped prison, she tells us that her "gang" is working on defeating HG and taking over many countries, by collaborating with the gangs of other countries, we ask if she knew anything about Rebecca, she smirks and says, we wouldn't want to know about her, we ask her what she has done to Onur, she tells us that we should figure that ourselves, after debriefing her, we decide to talk to Onur and ask him that what happened lately to him, he tells us that Roma has been threatening him that she'll kill Elif and Mert if he doesn't joins their side, we were shocked, Onur says that he won't let Mert and Elif being hurt by Roma, but he wouldn't join their side either because he values peace, we ask him if he knew anything about Rebecca, he tells us that Rebecca has been hitting on him and sending him her pics, which made him uncomfortable because of his loyalty towards Elif, he says that he told Rebecca that he wasn't in love with her, but she started taking more steps on him. The autopsy result revealed out that Rebecca was whipped to death. At the precinct, we were discussing details, Zeynep tells us that she found something really disturbing.

Mid-investigation, Zeynep tells us that she has found something really discomfiting, we follow her and she shows us something really gore, there were a lot of dead bodies and skeletons, we were disgusted, we ask Zeynep how she found about it, she tells us that Florin told them that there has been many bodies which hasn't been found out and HG's hiding spot was located in Adana, so he had sent Zeynep to investigate it, following that Cassandra approaches us and tells us that Hande Aktay has been reporting about HG's expansion and exposing about Rebecca, we ask her where she is, she tells us that she is talking with Kadri about the recent events that happened. We then progress to talk to Hande about Rebecca's identity, Hande says that she is tired of her job, and wants to take a damn rest, she tells us that Rebecca wasn't a socialite, but member of the gang, whose aim was to destroy HG and take over the world, their first aim was to defeat Demeter, whose identity wasn't even found yet, she tells us that Hestia would be the one who would get targeted by the gang. We thank her for providing us information regarding Rebecca. Following that, we arrived back the station, Tierre was fighting with someone on her phone, and slams it tightly, breaking it in two. We ask whom she has been angry on, she tells us that there is someone who is harassing her and insulted the shit out of him, and he didn't even utter a word after that. We then proceed to find clues, we found out a love message which was sent to Rebecca, we the decipher the person who wrote this love message to her, and it was none other than Tarik Özden, the Oud musician. We were puzzled that why he will fell for someone like Rebecca, we then interrogate him, he tells us that he is busy with rehearsal of his concert as now he is a singer, we ask him how does he know about Rebecca, he tells us that he has been to several countries and Rebecca was the only one, who admired and cherished his voice, and he fell in love with her, because he was his perfect type, her hot voice made him fell in love with her, but now she's dead, nothing will let him achieve her love. We then proceed to find more clues, Merve tells us that she was going through Rebecca's life and interview, and one of her interview, she tells that Simon's past has been suspicious rather unfortunate, however she accuses him of harassing her friend, we got suspicious about Simon, we interrogate him about his harassing towards Rebecca's friend, Simon tells us that he was never given respect by his parents, nor his siblings, he had hard time growing up because he was extremely vicious and scumbag, that no one got near to him, it even increased to the point that people started calling him "nonce", he tells us that he fell in love Rebecca's friend, and when he expressed it, she turned it down and insulted him even more, causing him to harass her, we then show disgust and call Simon "Asshole nonce" and go away. At the precinct, Tierre tells us that Hande has been fighting with Roma outside the station.

Mid-investigation, Tierre tells us that Roma and Hande fighting outside the station, we decide to check on the situation, we ask Hande why she has been fighting with Roma for no reason, she tells us that Roma is spreading lies about her saying that she is a whore, which angered her and they started fighting, we then cease the fight and take both of them for interrogation, we first debrief Hande, she was still exasperated, and says that Rebecca was a bitch, who along with Roma were trying to defame her by spreading lies about her that she works at a brothel and is a prostitute, causing to ruin her reputation, which aggrieved her to the extreme that they got into a fight, and began beating each other, by the help of their nails, we ask Hande to stay at the station to prevent any type of inconvenience happen in the coming time, which would bring complications for the team, Arslan then took a long breath that he has been knackered of this investigation, he felt like he was getting weak, Eylül tells us that Roma is fighting and yelling at Taylan. We immediately went to interrogate her, we reached there and saw Roma yelling, we tell her to shut the fuck up and interrogate her for spreading lies about Hande, she smirks and says that we are losers and can't do anything. She says that Rebecca and her were planning to destroy Hande's career, because she had reported a lot about their activities, and were exposing the gang they were members of, Roma says that whoever came in their way was to be dead, and she is pretty sure that Hande is the one who killed Rebecca. Arslan says that he didn't believe that Rebecca was a total bitch, Merve then approaches us and says that she wasn't even perfect for him, and he should find someone who is perfect for him, Arslan then says "Are you that?", Merve then blushes and says "Maybe I am" and runs away, Arslan was standing there, blushing. Eylül interrupted and said he should focus on the investigation, rather than being lovebirds, Arslan then says that she always treats him like a child. In the end, we had enough evidence to incriminate Tarik Özden for the murder, upon admitting Tarik tells us that Rebecca betrayed her and he couldn't resist that, he tells us that when he fell in love with Rebecca, he expressed it to her, and she also expressed her liking for him, they began dating, Tarik had even bought her a sports car with his money, things were going pretty well, until Rebecca disappeared for sometime, which worried him, however they met after a year, and he asked Rebecca, where she has been, however she ignored him, Tarik was surprised, so decided to find what happened to her, by doing research he found out that Rebecca was a prostitute who had slept with many men and also worked for a criminal organisation which offered her plenty of money, he was extremely surprised, and confronted Rebecca that why would she betray him, she then said that he was just time pass for her, and she never loved him, this broke down Tarik as he truly loved Rebecca, angered he grabbed the whip Rebecca had in her dress and started whipping her, until she stopped moving, after that he realised the crime he had done.

After Tarik's confession, we visit Taylan in the office for submitting him the case report, he says that we have arrested important members of HG, but the identity of Demeter was still unmasked and we should find it before it causes chaos throughout the country, Arslan says that he is still feeling weak, and wants to lay down. Taylan then allows him to get rest, and appoints Zeynep to partner with the player, Zeynep sighs and says why she can't get rest, she is so tired of all these, since the investigation was over, we decide to arrange pizza party at the station, but this thought was dropped out, until Onur approached us and says that he needs our help, Zeynep giggles and says she'll help him with the situation, he tells us that it's been five years since he and Elif got together, and he wants to surprise him with a trip to France and possibly a proposal, Zeynep sighs and says to Onur that Elif isn't even perfect for him, Onur then says how can be she so sure about that, Zeynep then spurts out that she is in love with him, and is jealous of Elif, this caused silence between both of them for few minutes, until Onur broke the silence by saying that he doesn't mean to break her heart, but the only person he had ever loved is Elif, and he couldn't break her heart. Merve was watching this by a distance, she approaches us, and says to Zeynep that she should forget about Onur, because he already loves someone and it's impossible for him to look into another girl, Zeynep then says "You'll get Arslan, who'll I get?", she then runs away from the precinct, and Merve was standing there saying that how did she know that she is in love with Arslan. We then hear screams and shouts from the interrogation room, only to find Roma throwing things, we ask wtf she has been up to, Roma says that she is tired and sick of all this, and wants to escape from here, we tell she can't escape the premises under our watch, she then says that she wants to talk to Mert, who'll let her escape from here, we were then puzzled that how would Mert help them, he tells us that he has been doing favours to her gang lately, and wants to team up with us to defeat HG and kill Demeter, and to protect to their magnificent leader, we ask her about their magnificent leader, she smirks and says that no one can defeat them, even if their life depended on it, and then escapes, Merve runs behind her, but Roma's speed was enough for her to disappear in a minute, Eylül then asks Merve, if she has time, there is something they need to talk about, Merve then agrees on that, Cassandra and Tierre were both there, Merve felt that she might have done something wrong. Eylül then assures her that there is nothing like that, she asks Merve if she is in love with Arslan, after listening to this, Merve blushes and Cassandra says her to reveal, and then she confesses that she is indeed in love with Arslan, and has been in love with him for a long time, without him knowing, Tierre then says "No way!", Eylül then laughs and says that she is the perfect partner for Arslan, and they both have mutual likes, Eylül then ensures Merve that she will convince Arslan to date her, and Merve glows up and thanks Eylül. After that, we went outside, Arslan sees Merve and asks her why she has been blushing, she then says nothing, Arslan tells her that he got two football match tickets for her and himself, and if she wants to go, Merve then agrees on both of them went off. Taylan calls us in our office, and tells us that we should catch Roma before sunrise, because if we don't something wrong and catastrophic will happen, Zeynep approaches us and was in deep anger, she tells us that she'll kill Elif, if she came in her way, we ask her to keep the knife down and ask her to take a rest, which she does. While, we were searching about Roma, we receive a call from Mélodie Bousquet that Roma is in Antalya and is following her, and she needs our help, but then the call cuts and we got worried, we knew this was worrying, the team then heads to Antalya to save Mélodie.
