The Circle Ankara
4
Welcome.
5
Have you made your decision?
6
Not that I have a choice.
7
I want out of here.
8
You do realize your decision should be to not end up here,
9
not just to get out I need to work with you to not be here and keep it that way
10
It's not something I can think or decide on That's my only option
11
We're offering you a better life I don't know, I can't confirm or deny that
12
But I'll work on it and we'll handle it
13
But with just one condition
14
Oh, it's not turnip juice
15
There are no compromises in this work
16
We'll take care of it.
17
My mom.
18
This early release or parole or whatever this is, she'd never buy it.
19
Why not?
20
My mom's.. how do I put it?
21
A little different.
22
You've been set up with my son.
23
Someone gains from you being in jail.
24
Doesn't matter now.
25
Five years.
26
We'll think about it when I get out.
27
I only have one son. Who did it?
28
Come on, tell me and I'll take care of it.
29
Tell me who is responsible.
30
Who did it?
31
There isn't one.
32
I'm gonna be fine.
33
Don't worry.
34
I want to tell my mother the truth.
35
Do you think this is a game, kid?
36
Why get your mom involved?
37
You get out of prison, she'll be happy.
38
You'll just go on with your life.
39
That's it.
40
You don't know my mom.
41
Of course you don't.
42
Captain, my grandpa was a tough guy. So was my father. And?
43
How should I put it?
44
My mom's mind, it works a little bit different.
45
Her mind working differently.
46
Would that speed up our job or slow it down?
47
She'd just know.
48
What I'm asking you is, would knowing the truth help all of us?
49
I don't know, but if my mom learns the truth, she'll understand our deal and accept it.
50
Which would make my job easier.
51
Khan, your mom, don't take this the wrong way, but she isn't a very important figure here.
52
The job you're doing with us
53
Not job, but Mission She should know that
54
Well, I get you, Captain.
55
You should get me as well.
56
That's my condition.
57
So you won't do the job unless we let you tell your mom about it?
58
I mean, it naturally comes to that.
59
Yeah.
60
Are you kidding me?
61
Just a minute, Bahar.
62
So, did you come up with this stuff overnight?
63
Yes, he did.
64
He did.
65
There's nothing to come up with.
66
We're talking about my mom here.
67
I know exactly how she thinks.
68
I can't pursue this job by hiding the truth and lying to my mother.
69
Captain, we obviously made a mistake.
70
If we knew, we'd just talk to Humerak and get her consent.
71
She'd have loved that.
72
If she saw us, she'd say the wolf and lamb don't go together.
73
Hmm.
74
So are you the lamb?
75
I have one life, big wolf, not two.
76
That'd be enough, sweet lamb.
77
Don't you be sad.
78
That'd suffice.
79
What the hell?
80
Gone Corbult.
81
Your mom may never know about that DVD.
82
It has your father's murder in it.
83
She could get vengeful, and then she may be afraid of losing you, which would throw us both off track.
84
And what should I say?
85
So you're working for the police.
86
You don't need to tell her what you do or where and how you do it.
87
That's it.
88
I don't know.
89
Good morning, boss.
90
You should have slept, Jihangir.
91
I'd have waken you up, my dear.
92
Do you have filtered coffee, Ablo?
93
Want some Linden tea?
94
The others just keep you awake.
95
You slept three hours for the last few months.
96
You'll just pass out somewhere eventually.
97
God forbid.
98
If you want to see a doctor, they make you sleep for three days.
99
No ton in them.
100
You know, they say chamomile tea is good for insomnia.
101
Oh.
102
All right, I'll try that too.
103
What are you doing here, Adam?
104
Boss, well, North Taranam's sujuk is something else.
105
She uses organic meat with eggs, huh?
106
Let him eat.
107
You enjoy it, Adam.
108
Thanks so much.
109
Jihan Ger, would you like me to make you some?
110
Well, Adam, what's up with the girl?
111
She's fine, boss.
112
Took her home after she woke up.
113
That's nice, but didn't you check out who she is?
114
She's the girl, boss.
115
Iskander Bey's daughter.
116
What did you say?
117
Boss Mujda, you know? That girl.
118
Iskander Akai's daughter.
119
That Mujda's Iskander's daughter, Mujda?
120
Why am I finding that out now?
121
Well, you see, I just found out too.
122
I thought you knew.
123
You even made a face when I asked her a question about where she was from.
124
How could I know, boss?
125
How could I know, Adam?
126
You're right, boss.
127
They needed her ID at the hospital, and that was when I realized, though.
128
We ran into each other when I got her home.
129
Does this Muzda use drugs or anything?
130
Tell me.
131
No, boss.
132
I checked her bag thoroughly.
133
She's clean.
134
It's all love.
135
Butterflies and stuff.
136
Youngsters in love.
137
Who's she in love with, that soccer player?
138
I don't think so, nor Tendenham.
139
You never know in such matters Adam You will follow the girl
140
Let me know when she meets with the Khan I get you olives Shangir with tomatoes and peppers
141
Shangir Of course you get here
142
Boss, what do we do with the Qataris?
143
We'll be right back.
144
What's up, Iskendare?
145
You're not the type to barge in here unannounced.
146
You coming here so unceremoniously tells me that you're in a hurry.
147
You've been the boss for all these years, Ilhan.
148
I feel drawn to you.
149
I feel like seeing the man who gave me orders.
150
Can't I do that?
151
Ah, there's your wife.
152
She hasn't changed a bit.
153
Where's Jihan Gear?
154
He here?
155
We're getting old, Ilhan.
156
Well, I'm obviously good, but you need to die up your roots.
157
What do you want, Isken Dare?
158
Spit it out.
159
I think I'm going to ban this swimming pool thing altogether.
160
Why's that?
161
Because I don't know how to swim. So you're jealous?
162
I am jealous, Ilhan.
163
Absence is what motivates people.
164
You want it when you don't have it.
165
You look at people who have it, and say, why don't I have it? And?
166
You say, why don't I have it?
167
But only to yourself.
168
But if you have power, you shout it out to other people as well.
169
I missed our conversations.
170
Back in 1977, I said we should move on.
171
Literally and figuratively.
172
When Sabri Abri, may he rest in peace, was still alive, he came by your shop.
173
He was infamous.
174
I was scared.
175
He'd never talk like we do now, either.
176
I knew once he was in his castle, he would draw and shoot.
177
He said to me, get out of my way, or I'll shoot your entire family.
178
I really am such a gentleman.
179
What the hell are you talking about?
180
I'm saying I'll shoot, Ilhan.
181
Do I need to say more?
182
You will withdraw from those contracts like the good boy that you are.
183
Where did you find the balls for this, huh?
184
I've got a solid defense line.
185
I've got my uncles and elders behind me.
186
I'm facing up to you because I trust them.
187
How's that?
188
I told you something.
189
You're still going on about balls.
190
You just heed my words.
191
Get the hell out of here.
192
Don't make me a murderer in my own house.
193
Ilhan, you'd kill me where I stand if you had your way.
194
Drop the murder in my own home, act.
195
You kill me and still join my funeral.
196
With a bottle of scotch and that junior attitude, you should stop by.
197
Sometime for a barbecue.
198
Remember where you came from.
199
Turkey A forgot about Dallas.
200
Never liked me, have you, Yinka?
201
What do you mean?
202
I'm a mad laugher, Yenga.
203
The master of means.
204
Go after him.
205
T .R.
206
Department of Justice.
207
Type E.
208
Closed Penitentiary Institution.
209
Captain, I'm sure you'll make the right decision, but maybe we shouldn't have to deal with this idiot.
210
We shouldn't trust him at his word.
211
Let's get one of us undercover.
212
Give this up, please.
213
If he obeyed without conditions, I would feel good.
214
It's good he has conditions.
215
He's got to think he has bargaining power.
216
So we're going through with this?
217
Of course we are.
218
His conditions aren't too big of a deal.
219
I argued against it on purpose.
220
Captain, Humara Karabalud isn't someone who's under our control.
221
Oh yeah?
222
Her only living son's fate is in our hands.
223
Could we want more?
224
I don't know.
225
Besides, we know that her son has a secret in his past.
226
Maybe Kazen doesn't know he's been switched, but his mother should know that we know.
227
So we'll tell her?
228
Of course, we will.
229
Well, not Khan, but we'll tell his mother at some point.
230
Let him come up with his conditions and stuff.
231
The advantage a fox has against a lion is cleverness.
232
We'll agree to them huffing and puffing so he thinks we're equals, so that we can work with him.
233
So I'm letting him out.
234
That's right.
235
Let him enjoy time out.
236
Don't overdo it.
237
Get a move on, Bahar.
238
Come on.
239
Let's go.
240
Let's go.
241
Let's go.
242
Let's go.
243
Let's go.
244
Jihangir.
245
When I saw your father covered in flour, I thought he was a baker.
246
He's not.
247
Well, you're baking all the bread, yet your dad's eating it.
248
It's a new era, Giangir.
249
You should change that mindset as well.
250
Come, let's build a bridge, you and I.
251
You know I'll never do that at Skander Bay.
252
I haven't seen you here before, sir.
253
Is there something wrong?
254
When population rises, battle ensues, Jihangir.
255
Money is not enough for multitudes.
256
I took an order and I'm working on it.
257
Let me give you my card.
258
Take it.
259
I don't just hand this out to anyone.
260
We're almost namesake, Skid.
261
Jihangir, Skinder.
262
No difference.
263
Let's conquer Athens together.
264
See, I made a joke and you picked up on it.
265
I need men like you.
266
Huh?
267
Go.
268
Ilhan, our son is chatting it up with Iskender.
269
How would the kid know?
270
He came to our home uninvited, neither a guest nor a friend.
271
He should have been at least a bit suspicious.
272
I'm already mad enough.
273
Why don't you just leave it alone?
274
Jihangir's calmness sometimes drives me crazy.
275
He'd barely make a sound if the sky came crashing down.
276
He'd just walk away quietly.
277
Insomnia is turning him into a different person with each passing day.
278
Hey, boss.
279
Boss, the Katarys are here.
280
Should I stick with them, or just follow the girl?
281
I mean, Eskander's girl. That girl.
282
We should know when she leaves the house.
283
If she won't leave, let a Khan call her and meet her.
284
What was her name?
285
Mushtey.
286
I definitely named her after those old movies.
287
I'd never expect this of Iskander.
288
Watch the movies and all.
289
Who'd have thought?
290
Iskander's up to something, Adam.
291
I understand.
292
We should take some precautions.
293
Sure, Voss.
294
Voss, I should remind you.
295
Your phone's off.
296
That's why I came looking for you.
297
Locked SIM.
298
Your phone was off.
299
I turned it off last night.
300
Forgot to turn it on.
301
Why was Iskender here?
302
Iskender came here to challenge your father.
303
Dad?
304
We used to feed that man.
305
Shame on him.
306
He should be ashamed.
307
Tell me, what did he say, Dad?
308
He didn't say anything.
309
He's threatening.
310
He's going to war.
311
He's saying, get out of my way.
312
He's not saying anything else.
313
But there's nothing going on.
314
Why would you do something like that?
315
Someone may have encouraged him.
316
Iskender's never been a strong man.
317
He comes at you twice, he'll chicken out twice.
318
He's always threatened your father.
319
Gulai, just shut up.
320
Son, I don't know anything.
321
If you know something, you tell me.
322
The guy came here, he threatened me, he made a scene, and then took off.
323
But he reacted to something.
324
Find out what that is for me, and then you tell me.
325
I don't know anything.
326
Ankara.
327
Let's go.
328
Ah, we're the good old violins, clarinets, kanums.
329
They're all gone.
330
All we have are electrocets and darbuka.
331
So what are they doing?
332
You can't dance to fadada like all of us.
333
Lintel soup.
334
Tarhana.
335
Organic food.
336
You know, the Ministry of Education should study you as a special case.
337
A casualty in education.
338
You have a way with words, honestly, ma 'am.
339
I think you should be in politics.
340
Why the hell are you here, hmm?
341
Ever thought about it?
342
You're here because Captain Sondache believes in you, Khan.
343
Look, I don't believe in you.
344
And I don't trust you. Do you know Fadayda?
345
You're not even from Ankara.
346
What, Fadayda?
347
What are you babbling about?
348
True that.
349
That means Fadayda's in my heart of hearts.
350
Bumming around doesn't sit well with my heart.
351
Well, that is quite clear.
352
Come on.
353
Wait for me, Istanbul.
354
I'm coming.
355
Go on, Khan.
356
Police, man.
357
Khan, go. Did you find him?
358
No, boss.
359
The Qataris are gone.
360
What do you mean, gone?
361
Did the man land in Istanbul?
362
He did, boss. And?
363
Boss, he got off the plane.
364
I mean, we waited.
365
But he's gone.
366
He had one damn job.
367
I'm coming now.
368
Where are you?
369
The cops didn't let us wait.
370
We were driving around.
371
We had men looking around everywhere.
372
welcome boss the qatari is avoiding us or was kidnapped there's no other explanation
373
god damn this kinder i don't just hand this card out to anyone

381
Hello?
382
Hello, Eskander Bay.
383
Come to my shop.
384
Let's grab a bite to eat.
385
Your trip to Istanbul is at an end, little boy.
386
This is not my home, so we're not in Istanbul yet.
387
You'll work with us now.
388
You'll report to us here.
389
They used to call this place the Green House.
390
The name stuck.
391
Don't mind the white paint job.
392
Green would have been better.
393
White gets dirty easier.
394
I hate big houses anyway.
395
Your mother's inside.
396
Really?
397
You're the only one who's brought her into this.
398
Since we're going to solidify our bond, I wanted her here.
399
Where is she? Does she know already?
400
She does now.
401
She knows how to negotiate.
402
Negotiate?
403
Why did you decide to make my son work for you after all this time?
404
Something must have happened.
405
Hmm?
406
Something must have happened for my son to be useful to you now.
407
That's the real thing you need to disclose.
408
What happened, Jamal Bey?
409
I thought she was just sly at first.
410
But her mind's sharp as well.
411
Captain, do we gain anything from this?
412
Umaira is no ordinary person.
413
We should keep that in mind.
414
Well, would she be able to help us out?
415
As long as we're on the same side, she won't be harmful.
416
Come on.
417
Tell me, how was your trip?
418
Good.
419
I danced to Fedida.
420
Good for you.
421
I wish I was there.
422
What were they talking about?
423
This slimeball danced at a rust area we stopped at on the way.
424
He's talking about that.
425
Why didn't you call from the road?
426
We could have talked.
427
I wasn't allowed a phone, Mom.
428
They're speaking in code.
429
I swear, they're speaking in code.
430
Guys, get us some tea.
431
So your kid danced to Fidaida, huh?
432
I wouldn't call that dancing.
433
No, no. He did.
434
He did.
435
No weddings.
436
He couldn't dance anywhere else.
437
You never know.
438
Never know what.
439
I mean weddings.
440
Festivities and all.
441
Hmm.
442
Who's the young lady, Jamal Bey?
443
Bahar.
444
She kept your son company.
445
They came from Ankara together.
446
Did she know? So, let's talk business.
447
Yes, let's.
448
this person you're after Ilhan Tepele was my late husband's close friend I haven't seen him for a long time but
449
he'd employ Khan if I asked him no that's not what we want
450
so we want him to get a job in one of Tepele's businesses
451
and work his way up eventually with his own effort.
452
But Ilhan Tepele is sure to find out about Khan.
453
He'll be someone who secretly got a job there.
454
If that were to surface, nothing good would come out of it, would it?
455
No, Humayrahanem.
456
We'll give him a new identity.
457
He killed his father.
458
Isn't that true?
459
Well, there's such a rumor, but we're not entirely sure.
460
There shouldn't be any secrets between us.
461
Jamal Sandikji.
462
You know about the DVD?
463
He dances to Freda well.
464
When the hell did you do this?
465
Alright, alright, kudos to you, but when did you slip past me?
466
I was watching you, Khan.
467
When did you blab it out?
468
I promise.
469
I'll tell you if we ever dance together.
470
Get lost.
471
No need for dramatics.
472
I'll talk to Ilhan Tepele.
473
He'll employ my son.
474
Though the real problem seems to be something else.
475
And what would that be?
476
Well, if you're after the people who are behind Ilhan Tepele, it seems those people have discarded Ilhan Tepele.
477
I mean, they say he's about to get booted.
478
That's what they say.
479
And how did you get this information?
480
I lost my husband.
481

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
