The heart that doesn’t carry the pain of love, either belongs to the mad or to the dead.

GENERAL NOTE
At the moment, the story telling is much faster than in S2, which was needed in a way to make things move on faster/secrets come out, but at the same time the story works with less „symbols“. It’s much more focused on action, thus there isn’t so much “ #Hercai

“pathos” in the story which maybe some of you miss. For me at the moment I don’t mind this, but I think they need to rebalance a bit the two things because “pathos” is very much also an essence of Hercai. We saw the tree scene in this epi&this is what #Hercai is all about!

What I noticed is that the roles of Miran and Reyyan seem to be inverted or in other words, they both use lines that the other one used before. E.g. R: “I cannot breath, Melike! I cannot breath without Miran.”

Reyyan is much more vocal about her need for Miran. She tells him that she misses him, can’t stand to be away from him, whereas Miran is much cooler in sense of using his brain and acting smartly, like it was more Reyyan’s role in the past (S2).

AZAT-REYYAN
Finally, Reyyan stands up for M.. “Miran wouldn’t do that. Something is wrong. We love each other. There must be an explanation.” I loved how she finally spoke up about her doubts in comparison to the time of Hazar’s incident.

the war between two families - but he is not smart enough to call M. before Azize calls him to meet him! Azat, what will become of u!
R: He risked his life for a family he doesn’t know (about Aslan saying he shot Azat). Go Reyyan, go, don’t trust this useless Aslan!

REYYAN-MIRAN TREE
I LOVED this scene dearly and the pathos it included is some of the core essence that makes Hercai "Hercai" like I said in the beginning. I loved that the scene opened with “Reyyan I must tell…” and that Miran was going straight for the truth.

A Miran who doesn’t lie and doesn’t hide! The sentence Reyyan uttered shortly afterwards and killed me and Miran was: “Even if you don’t believe now, you will shoot my father, if Azize wants to. Again, again, for the sake of your grandmother, you abandoned us.”

It was clear that R. was shaken up with all the events that happen. She herself says “I don’t know where the truth is anymore” and M. says: “So you don’t believe me? I shot Azat so that Mahmoud wouldn’t shoot him in the head. Understand R., I shot Azat to protect him.

Back then R. said: “Leave me, leave me even if I am telling the truth you are afraid to hear”. Now it’s Miran who says to listen to her heart and not believe Azize like it was with Reyyan telling M. not to believe Azize anymore when Hazar gave him Dilsha’s letter.

in fact only a few hours back and Miran was feeling a bit like a “son” to Hazar just for it to be shattered by the evil plans of Azize once again.

REYYAN-MIRAN-MANSION
Again, I loved how Miran was insisting on talking to Azat “I need to explain to Azat why I shot and I need to know what grandmother told him at the phone.” Miran is very honest and smart in his moves.

Miran was really going into the right direction, wanting to speak to Azat straight away. His flashback on the balcony the night before showed he really is haunted by shooting Azat and hearing „you are very good at shooting ppl in the back“.

So I personally still blame Azat for not having called Miran, especially after Miran came by the same morning and said once again he gave up revenge and that he didn’t blame Azat. Why didn’t he connect his two brain cells, why?

DILSHA’S RING
Reyyan handing Dilsha’s ring to H. Now I am waiting for the scene when Hazar knows that M. is his son to give it back to him and say: “Give your mother’s ring back to Reyyan. Fight for the love I did’t fight for.” I am not crying, you are crying!

How can A.know all the moves of Azize if he never met her?How is it that he can read her this like no one else? I still believe very much that his revenge is only for what was stolen from him–growing up without his mum/sister not from what A.did in general to everybody

PARALLELISM
Aslan entered the Shadoglus house thanks to “Azat’s accident”, like Miran did with Reyyan’s horse accident. Both entered the Shadolgu house to gain their trust and making them feel “in depth” with them. Interesting parallelism the writers used!
