00:00:00Music
00:00:14After you?
00:00:16Aw, he was such a good boy. So brave. Just watch for chewing on the bandage.
00:00:20Okay, I've got a cone at home.
00:00:21Oh, great. You can take off the bandage in two days and just call us if you see anything worrisome,
00:00:25okay?
00:00:26I will. Thanks, Dr. Ellison.
00:00:27You bet. Bye, buddy.
00:00:42Ah, so I double disinfected exam room four and I'm making a note on that Great Danes file to make
00:00:48sure he's taken outside for a bathroom break before the next exam.
00:00:53Thank you so much, Gabby.
00:00:54Yeah, anything else you need before you leave?
00:00:56Just make sure the place doesn't burn down until I get back.
00:01:00Oh, uh, yes. Bruno the Armadillo is coming in tomorrow. Kevin can totally handle it.
00:01:04Just remind him he has a tendency to, you know, walk off the exam table.
00:01:08Got it.
00:01:09Oh, and remind anybody else who is on night duty observing the animals.
00:01:13Will do.
00:01:15Huh.
00:01:15Can I bring you back a souvenir?
00:01:17Ooh, yeah. Um, surprise me.
00:01:20I'll do my best.
00:01:21Yeah.
00:01:21And, Hope.
00:01:23Mm-hmm.
00:01:23Just try to enjoy your trip.
00:01:27Thanks.
00:01:37Thank you so much.
00:01:38I appreciate it.
00:01:39Thanks for coming.
00:01:45Welcome back, Mr. Allen.
00:01:48Was the conference good?
00:01:50Yeah.
00:01:51It was fine.
00:01:52Thanks.
00:01:53More business tomorrow?
00:01:56Actually, no.
00:01:58Might I suggest a tour?
00:02:00The city tour takes you to multiple places and beaches, Ephesus, Cappadocia.
00:02:05Very nice.
00:02:06Oh, I don't know.
00:02:08I was supposed to have some meetings the next two days, but it turns out they got canceled.
00:02:12So I'll probably just change my flight and head home early.
00:02:16Can you see such wonders at home?
00:02:18I suggest an overnight tour.
00:02:20Oh, no, no, no.
00:02:21I don't know.
00:02:23Takes you to Ephesus a few hours away, and then next day you stay in the city nearby,
00:02:27and you go to Thermos Springs.
00:02:29Nice beaches.
00:02:30Beautiful ancient cities.
00:02:32Very nice.
00:02:34Can I see it?
00:02:35Yeah.
00:02:38And I'd make it back in time for my flight?
00:02:41Yes.
00:02:42I will arrange it right away.
00:02:43Sounds good.
00:03:19Are you going to open that?
00:03:22Oh, uh, yeah.
00:03:24Soon.
00:03:26First time in Turkey?
00:03:28Yeah.
00:03:29Uh, you?
00:03:30Yeah.
00:03:33Uh, so what have you seen so far?
00:03:37My hotel room, a couple restaurants in Istanbul, and a lovely conference center.
00:03:43Well, that's, uh...
00:03:45Brady Bland.
00:03:46Mm-hmm.
00:03:47Yeah, I know.
00:03:48I'm here for work.
00:03:50This little excursion's just my via tourist thing.
00:03:53Oh, well, good for you.
00:03:57Where are you from?
00:03:58Nashville.
00:03:59That's great.
00:04:00I'm in Atlanta.
00:04:02Ah, neighbors then.
00:04:03I suppose so.
00:04:05My parent, um, my dad lives there.
00:04:09It's a nice place.
00:04:16Is this it?
00:04:17I think so.
00:04:25Welcome to Ephesus.
00:04:27As you get off, please watch your step.
00:04:30I will give you your tickets as you get off the bus.
00:04:34Explore as much as you want.
00:04:36But please, please, be back on the bus by 5.30.
00:04:40That is when the park closes.
00:04:43Oh!
00:04:45Sorry.

00:06:26Nice to meet you again.
00:06:27You too.
00:06:30Should we see if they have any books to check out?
00:06:33You know, cause it's the library of Ephesus?
00:06:37Mm-hmm.
00:06:37No, yeah, I got that.
00:06:38It's that bad?
00:06:39Yeah.
00:06:41I'm gonna go just do a decimal some books.
00:06:44Yeah.
00:06:45Uh, good luck with that.
00:06:58Did you know the library was destroyed, but they actually put the front here back together?
00:07:02Huh.
00:07:03No, I didn't.
00:07:04Yeah.
00:07:05Fascinating stuff.
00:07:07You a history fan?
00:07:08Not really.
00:07:09I just have this thing here and feel obligated to use it.
00:07:13Oh.
00:07:13Well, you could just go with a guide, like a person, instead of a headset.
00:07:17No, no, no.
00:07:18You see, with a guide, you're forced to listen to what he thinks is interesting.
00:07:22With this, he's got a skip button.
00:07:25Or you could just stop listening.
00:07:27You wanna borrow it?
00:07:28No.
00:07:29I'm good.

00:24:30no
00:24:30no
00:24:33no
00:24:35no
00:24:36no
00:24:36no

00:24:37no
00:24:37no
00:24:38no
00:24:38no
00:25:01Hi, I spoke to someone at the hotel last night.
00:25:04Is he there?
00:25:06Okay, I'm sorry.
00:25:07I don't understand anything you're saying.
00:25:10Um, look, did he leave any word about a tour company or maybe Ephesus?
00:25:15Yeah, yeah, Ephesus.
00:25:18Hello?
00:25:19Hello?
00:25:24She hung up on me.
00:25:25Your hotel?
00:25:27Yeah.
00:25:27Did you find out any more information about the tour company or the name of it?
00:25:31I mean, then we could just call ourselves.
00:25:32No, all I understood was the word sick.
00:25:35No and Ephesus, which she just repeated over and over again.
00:25:40What about you?
00:25:41What about me?
00:25:42Well, your hotel, or how'd you arrange the tour?
00:25:44I just saw a pamphlet and called.
00:25:46I don't actually have a hotel back in Istanbul I checked out for this tour.
00:25:50Hello?
00:25:51You must leave now.
00:25:53The manager will be here soon.
00:26:00So what do we do now?
00:26:02I don't know.
00:26:03We should probably try to get to the U.S. Embassy.
00:26:06I mean, our things may be long gone.
00:26:08At least they can get us what we need to get home.
00:26:10Do you have any educated guesses on where the closest embassy might be?
00:26:16Istanbul?
00:26:17Yeah.
00:26:18Exactly.
00:26:18Okay, we will make our way there then.
00:26:23I hope the tour company has our stuff.
00:26:25And then, if not, we'll go to the embassy.
00:26:28So glad you pointed that out.
00:26:29You know, will you stop it?
00:26:30What?
00:26:30Stop acting like it's all my fault.
00:26:33I hate to point out the obvious, but...
00:26:35Okay, then stop acting like I'm some ditzy, clumsy fool.
00:26:39It was an accident.
00:26:41And I didn't force you to get off the bus.
00:26:43And I didn't tell the bus driver to leave you.
00:26:45And ever since then, all I have tried to do is whatever it takes to just get us back to
00:26:49our lives.
00:26:59Let's stop here.
00:27:00I'm thirsty.
00:27:01Well, I really think that we should save the money that you have.
00:27:03I'm not at the risk of getting dehydrated.
00:27:05Plus, I need to save my card's work.
00:27:07Okay, well, I'm doing the math in my head, and we're not going to have enough money if your cards
00:27:10don't work.
00:27:11Cross your fingers.
00:27:18Hi, uh, four waters, please.
00:27:24No.
00:27:26Worth a shot?
00:27:27Um, all right, just two.
00:27:32We have a little left.
00:27:33Enough until my cards get fixed.
00:27:49Can I get one of those?
00:27:51Yeah.
00:27:52Here.
00:27:54Oh, excuse me.
00:27:59What?
00:28:00I think that guy just took my wallet.
00:28:01What?
00:28:02Like, I just took my wallet.
00:28:04What?
00:28:04Hey!
00:28:08Wait.
00:28:09Did you see where he went?
00:28:10I don't know.
00:28:13Great.
00:28:14This trip just keeps getting better.
00:28:16Okay, well, the joke's on him.
00:28:17You didn't have any, almost any cash in your wallet, and, I mean, your cards don't work, so...
00:28:21Yeah.
00:28:22Until later today, when we could really use them.
00:28:26Hey, Jack, it'll be okay.
00:28:30Somehow.
00:28:39Aw, look how cute this place is.
00:28:41Yeah, adorable.
00:28:43Too bad we can't afford it.
00:28:44Oh, look how cute this place is.
00:28:46Hi.
00:28:47Hungry?
00:28:48I mean, yes, but we don't have any money.
00:28:51Come.
00:29:00Eat.
00:29:01Oh.
00:29:02Eat?
00:29:03Sit.
00:29:06Eat.
00:29:19Not quite what you expected, I bet.
00:29:21Yeah, but it was really kind of her, and, well, I would love to have standards.
00:29:27You're hungry.
00:29:29Don't judge me.
00:29:31Oh.
00:29:39It's not gross.
00:29:41It's, it's food.
00:29:43It's, uh, it's cloric intake.
00:29:47Necessary.
00:29:48It's necessary.
00:29:50Necessary.
00:29:51No, you know what?
00:29:52I can't do it.
00:29:53Okay, it's not gonna hurt you.
00:29:55And you don't know that.
00:29:57Ah, the human body is pretty adept at fighting off bacteria.
00:29:59Ugh.
00:30:01Don't say that word.
00:30:02Trust me.
00:30:02You'll be fine.
00:30:03How do you know that?
00:30:05I'm a vet.
00:30:08Fine.
00:30:09Fine.
00:30:09Don't believe me.
00:30:10I'd believe what you say about animals.
00:30:12Well, I'm pretty sure that I still have a degree with the word doctor in it.
00:30:19Okay.
00:30:19Okay.
00:30:20You're gonna feel better once your stomach is full enough and that hangry feeling goes away.
00:30:39Not bad.
00:30:43Thanks.
00:30:46And Hope, I'm sorry for not making this any easier.
00:30:53I know you didn't mean for this to happen.
00:30:57Apology accepted.
00:31:00Thanks.
00:31:03So, Istanbul.
00:31:05Do you think we can hitch rides to get there?
00:31:07Maybe.
00:31:08Um, I mean, I'm not the backpacker type, but we have gotten this far.
00:31:15So, why are you here anyway?
00:31:17I mean, in this country.
00:31:20I, um, I was a guest speaker at a conference.
00:31:23What topic?
00:31:23It's kind of technical.
00:31:27Okay.
00:31:28Um, basically data mining while navigating privacy concerns within cloud technologies.
00:31:36Sounds riveting.
00:31:38Yeah.
00:31:39Did it not go well, or?
00:31:41No.
00:31:41It was fine.
00:31:43Oh, sorry.
00:31:44You just said that your job was at risk, so I thought that...
00:31:46Oh, no.
00:31:47It's, uh, it's complicated.
00:31:50What age?
00:31:51Oh, sorry.
00:31:52We can't pay.
00:31:53It's fine.
00:31:54Oh.
00:31:59Kind of restores your faith in humanity, huh?
00:32:02Yeah.
00:32:08Any luck?
00:32:09No.
00:32:10Still won't turn on.
00:32:14How serious were you about hitchhiking?
00:32:17Is that me?
00:32:19I'm gonna go ask this guy.
00:32:20Yeah, but what if he is...
00:32:21Criminal?
00:32:23Well, I was gonna say, what if he's not going to Istanbul?
00:32:26One way to find out.
00:32:33Excuse me.
00:32:33Hi.
00:32:34Um, we need to get to Istanbul.
00:32:35Uh, we need a ride.
00:32:36Could you, uh, drive us to Istanbul?
00:32:38No English.
00:32:39Okay.
00:32:40Um, uh, Istanbul?
00:32:42Uh, you go to Istanbul?
00:32:44Right?
00:32:51What is it?
00:32:52Uh, translation app.
00:32:53Hmm.
00:32:53Clever.
00:32:56Did you tell him?
00:32:57Yeah.
00:32:58See me typing?
00:32:58Just making sure.
00:33:06I have some more deliveries to make, but then I'm going a hundred kilometers in that direction.
00:33:10I'm not going to Istanbul, but I could take you to that point.
00:33:14Yes, thank you.
00:33:15Yes.
00:33:15Please, yeah?
00:33:16Okay.
00:33:29Oh, uh, wait.
00:33:35Um...
00:33:35What are you doing?
00:33:37I'm asking where we are.
00:33:45Oh, okay.
00:33:49Oh, I can keep it?
00:33:51Oh.
00:33:51Oh, thank you.
00:33:52Have a good day.
00:33:54Okay.
00:33:56Um...
00:33:57So, where are we?
00:33:59We are here.
00:34:01So, I think north is, uh...
00:34:05I think we have to go that way.
00:34:13Wait.
00:34:14Hold on.
00:34:15What?
00:34:16I think that this is, uh...
00:34:19What?
00:34:20I think it's one of the places that we were supposed to stop on the tour.
00:34:24It is.
00:34:25Come on, let's go.
00:34:26Could the bus be here?
00:34:33Any sign of the tour group?
00:34:35All the buses out front were gone, and it took us all day to get here.
00:34:39Unfortunately, we're probably all long gone by now.
00:34:43Well, we should probably get going too then.
00:34:46Hey, can I take a few minutes here, please?
00:34:50Sure.
00:34:51What is this place, anyways?
00:34:53Uh, it's an ancient military fort.
00:34:55Okay, that's pretty cool.
00:34:56Yeah.
00:34:57I just wish I had my camera.
00:35:20Stop going.
00:35:38All that stuff is funny, okay.
00:35:49It'll go after this place, please.
00:35:50That's not really good to see you guys.
00:35:55so what's with the envelope
00:36:00her letters
00:36:01they're all letters
00:36:03from my mom
00:36:05she came here when she was younger
00:36:07and she loved it
00:36:12why was she here
00:36:15to explore
00:36:16to be on her own
00:36:18I think
00:36:19that's when she
00:36:21talks about
00:36:23how strong the walls are
00:36:25and the idea that
00:36:27the fort protected people
00:36:29for centuries
00:36:30and it made her feel safe
00:36:34I think she was
00:36:35nervous about traveling on her own
00:36:39this place
00:36:42how did she put it
00:36:46she
00:36:46she felt like
00:36:48she got strength
00:36:50from here
00:36:51that she took with her
00:36:54that's pretty neat
00:36:56did she write all the letters
00:36:57when she was here
00:37:00no
00:37:00she wrote them a few months ago
00:37:03before she passed away
00:37:07I'm so sorry
00:37:10it's okay
00:37:12my dad gave them to me
00:37:13with instructions
00:37:15from her
00:37:15not to open them
00:37:16until I got to the place
00:37:17with the name
00:37:18on the front of them
00:37:20things weren't very settled
00:37:21until recently
00:37:22with my dad
00:37:23so
00:37:24this was the earliest
00:37:25I felt like I could come
00:37:28so if she came here
00:37:30does that mean
00:37:31the other letters
00:37:32are from other spots
00:37:33on the tour
00:37:33yeah
00:37:34most of them
00:37:37that's why I chose the tour

00:42:28was that when you were a kid?
00:42:32no
00:42:33my whole life
00:42:35I mean
00:42:36we were

00:43:01Helen and
00:43:02Paris
00:43:04and all of the
00:43:06commotion that their relationship
00:43:08stirred up

00:45:20eyes open for a way we can make some quick cash then you all right yeah just checking smart
00:45:31I keep thinking I should try to find a way to call work but I don't know that it'd make
00:45:37a difference
00:45:38why not well I'm supposed to be in the office tomorrow and I could think of a few people that
00:45:44will know I'm not there not in a good way well so they wouldn't understand all of this more like
00:45:51they'd use it to get what they want which is what to see me fired really yeah I found out
00:45:59my boss sent me here to Turkey to just get me out of the way I've been working on something
00:46:05and it's
00:46:06getting a lot of attention like really really good attention and turns out he wants it for himself
00:46:12no yeah when we were in Ephesus I got a call from my buddy Mark he's a co-worker and
00:46:19he actually let
00:46:20me know that they were interviewing for my position right behind my back wait so that's why you have
00:46:26to get back yeah I don't know if it'll make a difference but figure I should try right you have
00:46:35to at least stand up for yourself yeah that's the plan look what is that a Turkish bathhouse isn't that
00:46:49just like a spa uh no it's really more of like a cultural thing although it's probably spa like
00:46:55and more of the ritz here resorts definitely not my thing oh well that would definitely solve one of
00:47:01our problems hello come please come have you a Turkish bus oh uh no uh we would like to but
00:47:17I I don't think
00:47:19we can you can't come to Turkey and not have a true Turkish bus oh uh we don't have any
00:47:24money yeah oh oh
00:47:27what happened to your arm it's flaw I slipped I mean do you run this place by yourself because that
00:47:35would be really difficult yes some days yes maybe we can help you help yeah maybe we could do cleaning
00:47:43or help with whatever else you need you yeah and then in exchange we could use the facilities and 600
00:47:51lira
00:47:54500 lira deal
00:48:00you go there uh stay please this is for you but first clean then you can bus okay I will
00:48:13you go there
00:48:14you
00:49:46What?
00:49:57This is the best.
00:50:04I'm all done with these.
00:50:05Where do you want me to put them?
00:50:07Oh dear.
00:50:10Is this a lost and found?
00:50:12Mm-hmm.
00:50:18Hey, how'd it go?
00:50:20Um, disturbing.
00:50:23Oh.
00:50:24Well, we got paid.
00:50:26And I got a tip for scrubbing some guy's back.
00:50:32Really?
00:50:33That's, uh...
00:50:33I don't want to talk about it.
00:50:36Well, maybe this will make you feel better.
00:50:40Where'd you get that?
00:50:42Lost and found.
00:50:47Okay, so obviously you've been through an experience, but we've got money now so maybe we can find a place
00:50:55to stay tonight.
00:50:56Sounds good.
00:50:57Uh, where?
00:50:58Uh, maybe, um...
00:51:00Oh.
00:51:01Maybe I bed and breakfast?
00:51:04Okay, but no bartering.
00:51:07Okay?
00:51:08I don't want to clean anything or anyone ever again.
00:51:11Don't worry.
00:51:13You don't have to.
00:51:20Ta-da!
00:51:22So you're telling me you got this room for 500 lira?
00:51:26450.
00:51:27I bargained.
00:51:28You what?
00:51:29I bargained.
00:51:30Not bartered.
00:51:32And, because of the extra 100 from your tip, we can go out for a nice simple dinner.
00:51:39Very simple.
00:51:40Other good news?
00:51:42Breakfast is included.
00:51:43You're kidding.
00:51:44You're welcome.
00:51:47Okay, so we've actually made pretty good progress, considering the fact that we could've just driven a whole lot faster.
00:51:54What, with our imaginary cab or rental car?
00:51:57Yes.
00:51:58Uh, but worse comes to worse, it looks like we could walk this in a day or two.
00:52:02Ugh, let's hope it doesn't come to that.
00:52:04If we get the right ride, we can be in Istanbul tomorrow morning.
00:52:07Really?
00:52:07Yeah, but if not, we need to make it to that point there, and that'd be good progress.
00:52:14You know, this is pretty close to one of the original stops on the tour, if I'm reading this right.
00:52:19Which one?
00:52:20The Bazaar.
00:52:22Grand Bazaar?
00:52:22I'm pretty sure that's in Istanbul.
00:52:25No.
00:52:26There are bazaars everywhere.
00:52:28This is one of those enticing, spend all your money kind of stops that they have on every tour.
00:52:34But...
00:52:34It's one that your mom wrote about?
00:52:37Yeah, but I mean, it's okay.
00:52:39I can just go on my own.
00:52:41You don't have to.
00:52:41Oh, no, no, no.
00:52:42It's fine.
00:52:43Um, we should probably stick together.
00:52:46But, uh, first, food, please.
00:52:55I say we use all the money we have left.
00:52:58That won't be hard.
00:53:00But what happened to saving it?
00:53:02Well, I don't know.
00:53:03I figured that you probably wouldn't want to work for another meal.
00:53:05And, not to be overly confident, but things have gone pretty good so far.
00:53:10I mean, it could be worse.
00:53:13No.
00:53:14Don't jinx it.
00:53:22All right, I gotta ask.
00:53:24How did you become such a good bargainer?
00:53:27Or...
00:53:28Is that the word?
00:53:29Mmm...
00:53:29Negotiator?
00:53:31Sure.
00:53:32You know what I mean.
00:53:34I...
00:53:35I got it from my mom.
00:53:36She used to take us to thrift stores as kids, you know, to get school stuff or whatever.
00:53:40And she would...
00:53:42Bargain with the thrift store employees.
00:53:45I would get so embarrassed.
00:53:47I mean, I get it if something's overpriced or if it's in bad condition,
00:53:51but then trying to get a dollar off of a used skirt...
00:53:55I mean, I, for one, would love to see you embarrassed.
00:53:58I bet you would.
00:54:01I dreaded going.
00:54:02And the thing is, like, everything was fair game with her.
00:54:06If you hated it so much, what changed?
00:54:08Because now you are really good at it.
00:54:10I don't know.
00:54:11Maybe it's just the choice of haggling or going without here.
00:54:17Maybe I'm more confident than I thought I was.
00:54:21Maybe I'm channeling my mom on this trip.
00:54:26So, you don't do this back home?
00:54:28I mean, there's not really a need to.
00:54:30Unless I'm buying a car.
00:54:32Dealerships?
00:54:33Fear me.
00:54:34Oh, I believe it.
00:54:36So, what's your secret?
00:54:38Please, teach me your ways.
00:54:41Oh, okay.
00:54:43There are three steps to a good negotiation.
00:54:48First, smile.
00:54:53A smile.
00:54:54Trust me, it means that you mean business,
00:54:57but you're going to be, like, cool about it.
00:54:59Got it.
00:55:04Two, eye contact.
00:55:11A little intense, but okay.
00:55:14And the third.
00:55:16The third?
00:55:17A handshake.
00:55:18Here.
00:55:19It has to be firm, but not too firm.
00:55:22Confident, but not intimidating.
00:55:26Just, like, sealing the deal with a mutual respect.
00:55:42It's a good handshake.
00:55:52I think I'm turned around here.
00:55:57Actually, I think we found it.
00:56:00I hope you brought your letter.
00:56:02Of course.
00:56:04I just wish I had my wallet.
00:56:13There's just so much to see.
00:56:17Wow.
00:56:21Cool.
00:56:28Cool.
00:56:29I killed a beer cup.
00:56:30Now?
00:56:31No, we're good.
00:56:32We're good.
00:56:42Dear Hope, it's been so many years, I hope the bazaar is still there.
00:56:47I'm wondering if everything I've written still makes sense,
00:56:49or if the places I went to changed too much to recognize by my descriptions.
00:56:54But assuming it's mostly the same, learn from my mistakes.
00:56:57First, watch out for someone taking advantage of the fact you're a foreigner.
00:57:01I didn't understand the money fully yet, and paid triple for a scarf.
00:57:06I ended up giving that scarf away a couple of years later because it bothered me so much.
00:57:11Second, try something new.
00:57:13This was the place I discovered Turkish delight.
00:57:16Not the boxed stuff we can get at home, covered in powdered sugar,
00:57:19but real, fresh-made Turkish delight.
00:57:22I'm sure the shops changed, but I remember buying some there that became my favorite.
00:57:27Try it.
00:57:33Hey.
00:57:33Good letter?
00:57:35Yeah. Um, did you see any Turkish delight shops?
00:57:38Uh, yeah, actually, down there.
00:57:40Uh, but we don't have any money.
00:57:42I know. I just want to see it.
00:57:52I'm salivating.
00:57:55We just ate.
00:57:56Come on.
00:57:57You can't pretend that these don't look delicious.
00:58:00Which one?
00:58:02I feel like I'm going to get a cavity just staring.
00:58:05That one.
00:58:09Little outside our price range.
00:58:12Hmm.
00:58:13Well, at least now I know why my mom wrote about them.
00:58:16Just looking at them is memorable.
00:58:25Hey.
00:58:27I just remembered something that I wanted to check out.
00:58:29Um, I'm going to head back.
00:58:30Oh, okay.
00:58:31No, no, no.
00:58:32Uh, you must be tired, and the hotel's right there.
00:58:35It's okay. I don't mind.
00:58:37I'll be quick. I promise.
00:58:39Oh, okay. All right. Be safe.
00:59:04I'll be safe.
00:59:10Clean clothes for a change.
00:59:13I think I'd like to burn these, so.
00:59:17What's that?
00:59:19Eh, it's a little treat.
00:59:23Here.
00:59:31Um, okay.
00:59:37What?
00:59:42How?
00:59:44I actually bartered.
00:59:50I, um,
00:59:52I just thought you shouldn't miss out on anything your mom wanted you to experience.
01:00:02You're welcome.
01:00:05You're going to try some, right?
01:00:07After you try it first.
01:00:10And I still don't quite know what they are, so.
01:00:19Yeah?
01:00:21Yeah?
01:00:22That good?
01:00:22Mm-hmm.
01:00:24All right.
01:00:34Wow.
01:00:35That is not what I expected.
01:00:45Huh?
01:00:46That's a look.
01:00:47Yeah.
01:00:48Thank you, lost and found.
01:00:49You're not looking too shabby yourself.
01:00:51Hmm.
01:00:55Don't you want the bed?
01:00:57No.
01:00:58You take it this time.
01:01:00You sure?
01:01:01Yeah.
01:01:03Thanks.
01:01:13So, what's going to happen if you go back and your job's not there?
01:01:16I'm not sure.
01:01:18Part of me is so angry about what's going on, I could put up a fight, make a big deal
01:01:24out of it, but...
01:01:26But what?
01:01:29I'm afraid I don't stand a chance.
01:01:31I mean, little me versus the big boss.
01:01:36Besides, I'm away and can't do anything about it.
01:01:39He's trying to fire me.
01:01:42By the time I get back, am I just making it worse for myself?
01:01:46I mean...
01:01:48Maybe if you go quietly, he'll owe you?
01:01:51Not that that's great, either.
01:01:54Worked really hard there.
01:01:57I mean, if you go back, maybe he'll just stop what he's doing.
01:02:00I hope so.
01:02:02But even if he does...
01:02:05I already know what he's done.
01:02:07Do I really want to stay and work for someone like that?
01:02:14You're just making me really glad that I'm self-employed.
01:02:19All right.
01:02:20Question for you now.
01:02:24If you could write back to your mom about your experience in Turkey, what would you say?
01:02:32I would...
01:02:33I would tell her I've gotten really good at cleaning.
01:02:38She used to critique my chores when I was a teen.
01:02:42She'd be impressed now.
01:02:44Mm.
01:02:46And I would have to brag about my bargaining skills.
01:02:49Absolutely.
01:02:53Oh, and I would tell her that I have learned how to hitchhike.
01:03:01And I'm glad I'm not alone.
01:03:06Well, this trip has not turned out like anything I thought it would.
01:03:14It, uh, it's still been a great adventure.
01:03:18Yeah.
01:03:20It has.
01:03:26Sorry, no.
01:03:27Okay.
01:03:31Nope.
01:03:32Not going our way.
01:03:34It's okay.
01:03:36I've gotten really good at walking.
01:03:40Found a good one.
01:03:41Yeah, you gonna try it?
01:03:42Mm-hmm.
01:03:42Mm.
01:03:44Yeah?
01:03:44Yeah, it's pretty good.
01:03:46You're bold.
01:03:46Aren't you supposed to wash those first?
01:03:48I think it'll be all right.
01:03:50Good luck.
01:03:52No, I'm kidding.
01:03:54I'm way too hungry to care.
01:03:56Mm-hmm.
01:03:56Mm-hmm.
01:03:58Yeah, come on.
01:03:59Mm-hmm.
01:04:09Mm-hmm.
01:04:11Mm-hmm.
01:04:13Mm-hmm.
01:04:15Mm-hmm.
01:04:16Mm-hmm.
01:04:18Mm-hmm.
01:04:40It's a small one.
01:04:42No, it's a small one.
01:04:50Thank you so much.
01:04:56Mmm.
01:04:57This is good.
01:04:58Yeah.
01:04:59Absolutely one of our better free meals.
01:05:01Excellent work, sir.
01:05:02I've learned from the best.
01:05:04Oh.
01:05:06Hey, so I noticed something on the map earlier.
01:05:10We're just a few kilometers away from some thermal springs.
01:05:13Wait, really?
01:05:14Yeah.
01:05:14Isn't that one of the spots from your mom's envelope?
01:05:17Uh, yeah.
01:05:18It is.
01:05:19Shall we?
01:05:21Eat fast.
01:05:23Are you gonna eat that?
01:05:33Is that it?
01:05:34I think it's down there.
01:05:36It's supposed to be beautiful, and you can get in the water and everything.
01:05:38Come on.
01:05:40Come on.
01:05:49How?
01:05:52Nature.
01:05:53Sure.
01:05:54I don't understand it.
01:06:07Do you want to hear it?
01:06:10If you want to share, but I know it's private, so.
01:06:13Oh, no.
01:06:14It's okay.
01:06:15Alright.
01:06:20Hi.
01:06:28Dear Hope.
01:06:31I remember being upset when I came to these thermal springs.
01:06:34I had talked to my boyfriend at the time, and it seemed like everything was doomed between
01:06:38us there i was in a paradise of sorts a landscape so unique and lovely i was just gonna hurry
01:06:48and
01:06:48take a roll of pictures and be on my way and i saw it i can still remember the shade
01:06:54of the water
01:06:55and all the limestone around it was it limestone i think so i remember soaking the pools
01:07:04and looking over all the springs it gave me perspective one argument didn't matter
01:07:13only how i felt mattered and i missed him and i wished that he was there with me
01:07:20and that's when i knew things would work out with my boyfriend
01:07:25and it did your father and i got married later that year
01:07:34my favorite spot was in the pools all the way at the bottom make sure to take lots of pictures

01:14:49you
01:14:54you
01:15:18And our next stop, this beautiful beach will be our last site on our tour, so enjoy it.
01:15:24This beach has a rich history and is thought to be where ancient mariners landed ages ago
01:15:31and discovered the beautiful sights of the Turkish countryside.
01:16:10Dear Hope,
01:16:11My trip was winding down and all of my worries from life started to creep in.
01:16:15Finishing college, figuring out my future.
01:16:18Of course your father was a bright spot there, but still I worried.
01:16:22I'd spent my trip letting go and enjoying life.
01:16:24Growing up in some ways, of course, but it was coming to an end.
01:16:28Being here on this beach helped me relax.
01:16:31I sat on the rocks and looked out over the water.
01:16:34The sound was soothing.
01:16:36I closed my eyes and let that sound, those waves, wash away my worries.
01:16:40I have to admit I did that a lot afterwards too.
01:16:43It became my technique I used whenever I was stressed or whenever we argued.
01:16:48No matter your worries, give it a try.
01:16:51Maybe it'll help you like it did me.
01:17:00Mr. Cep, you are back.
01:17:02Yeah, I am.
01:17:03What happened?
01:17:04I thought you were going to help me.
01:17:05I'm very sorry.
01:17:06I was sick.
01:17:07I almost went to hospital.
01:17:09Well, glad you're feeling better now.
01:17:11Do you need anything sent to your room?
01:17:13I actually got to get on the next flight, so thank you.
01:17:16In the morning?
01:17:17No, no.
01:17:17There's got to be something tonight.
01:17:19It's late for such departures, but I will book something for you.
01:17:22No, no, no.
01:17:23I'll take care of it, but thank you.
01:17:25I appreciate it.
01:17:31Uh, it was wild, Gabby.
01:17:36But, um, everything is as it should be, and I'm fine.
01:17:43Well, do you need anything?
01:17:44Are you changing your flight?
01:17:46No, um, I should be able to keep my schedule as is.
01:17:49I've got one last stop in Istanbul.
01:17:52How's everything there?
01:17:54Mrs. Samuel's cat snagged one of her birds.
01:17:56The bird didn't make it, but the cat looked very happy.
01:18:00Uh, I'll have that one.
01:18:02Yes.
01:18:04And one of them.
01:18:05The best.
01:18:09You're welcome.
01:18:21Dear Mom, someone asked what I'd say if I wrote you back, and it got me thinking.
01:18:28Why not?
01:18:30My experience on this journey has probably not been what you thought it'd be.
01:18:36I made a good friend.
01:18:43And lost him, too.
01:18:46I wonder what you'd say about him.
01:18:50Where to start?
01:18:52Okay.
01:18:52Okay, so you have absolutely no flights tonight.
01:18:59Okay.
01:18:59Well, uh, I'll do the 1045 tomorrow then.
01:19:07Uh, yeah, yeah.
01:19:08No, I'm here.
01:19:11Okay.
01:19:11Okay.
01:19:11Uh, perfect.
01:19:20Okay.
01:19:27We'll do this.
01:19:27Okay.
01:19:33I'll be there for you.
01:19:34Okay.
01:19:34Okay.
01:19:35Okay.
01:19:37Okay.
01:19:42That's next time.
01:19:44Good morning.
01:19:46Good morning.
01:19:47Your driver will be here in a few minutes.
01:19:49Perfect. Thank you.
01:19:51I hope there are at least
01:19:53some good memories of Turkey you can take home.
01:20:01Yeah.
01:20:16Change of plans. Could you take me somewhere else?
01:20:57Dear Hope,
01:20:59this cistern has some neat history behind it.
01:21:02I remember I spent the day exploring all over Istanbul,
01:21:05but this was the spot that made me stop and think.
01:21:08I was so proud of how I fared on this trip.
01:21:10I felt twice as confident
01:21:12and experienced in life and the world
01:21:14in a way I didn't know I could be.
01:21:16I lived.
01:21:17And that's what I want for you.
01:21:19You are incredibly talented and hardworking.
01:21:22But don't limit yourself with what you know.
01:21:25Follow your heart.
01:21:26Trust your instincts.
01:21:29I wish this was a trip
01:21:30we could have taken together.
01:21:32Maybe away from our normal routine
01:21:34and environment, we could have broken out of our mold
01:21:36and stopped seeing the differences between us.
01:21:39Maybe we'd see each other in a new light.
01:21:42But time's running out.
01:21:44So I guess I'll just make sure you know the truth.
01:21:47Something I rarely said after our many squabbles over the years.
01:21:50I love you.
01:21:52And not because you're my daughter and it's expected,
01:21:54but because you are amazing.
01:21:57I love everything about you,
01:21:58even your strength to hold your own when we argued.
01:22:01Never doubt that love.
01:22:08I love you too, Mom.
01:22:10I love you too.
01:22:24Here. You want a photo?
01:22:29What are you doing here?
01:22:30Well, this is one of THE places to see in Istanbul, right?
01:22:35Couldn't come all this way and miss it.
01:22:38I just, I thought you would be on a plane by now or back in Atlanta.
01:22:45Eventually, but I had somewhere more important to be today.
01:22:52Where?
01:22:55With you.
01:23:01But what about your job?
01:23:03It'll either be there when I get back or not.
01:23:09But I do have the truth on my side and maybe it'll be enough.
01:23:15Well, I mean you deserve everything you've worked for and I hope that they see that.
01:23:20Me too.
01:23:25I realized after you were gone that I never told you how grateful I was to have you by my
01:23:37side.
01:23:37Are you sure it was grateful instead of annoyed?
01:23:46Eventually, but you made me feel safe and at ease and I found myself enjoying every minute of it.
01:24:03Even the crazy ones.
01:24:05So thank you for that.
01:24:08I was glad we were together too.
01:24:10After all, it was the best, worst trip ever.
01:24:19But I did make a mistake when I left you at the Springs.
01:24:23I mean you had to get back to Istanbul.
01:24:26Did I?
01:24:27I let everything I was afraid of with my job overshadow what I felt for you.
01:24:34This morning I woke up thinking about that plane ride fretting the entire way home about my future.
01:24:41But you're here.
01:24:43Because nothing that truly matters is on that plane or back home.
01:24:53It's right here.
01:24:58I like your logic.
01:25:00Yeah?
01:25:01And I agree with it.
01:25:05Wholeheartedly.
01:25:06Wholeheartedly.
