Thank You, Next – Season 1 Episode 7 1

Unbeknownst to Balim, he had been invited on this particular trip, having just parted ways with his boyfriend. An unexpected twist of fate brought them together, and they found an instant connection, sharing similar sentiments on myriad topics. As they sit by the crackling fire that night, he confesses his feelings of disarray and dissatisfaction. When she tenderly brushes his face, he leans in and their lips meet, igniting a passion that quickly spiraled out of control. Omer now regrets their rapid progression, including their impulsive decision to move in together amidst the pandemic, which ultimately led to their unraveling.

Leyla subsequently seeks solace with Seyyaz, only to find him in the arms of Defne, happier than ever. The void Leyla once left in his life has been amply filled by Defne, and their bond flourishes. Later that afternoon at work, Leyla's uncle arrives, grilling her about Tuba's book launch. It transpires that an expert is scrutinizing the content, but a more pressing concern arises. Tuba has organized a photo exhibition titled "Living with a Narcissist," adorned with hashtags such as "lovebombing." As Tuba elucidates the significance of these images, Leyla realizes they mirror her own experiences with him.

Post the exhibit, Omer arrives to escort Leyla back. During their journey, he bluntly inquires about any intimate encounters between her and Cem. She dismisses it casually, yet that night, as Cem arrives at the bar with a new date, Leyla finds herself unable to shake off the thought of him. In fact, Cem's presence haunts her even as she paddles her kayak across the tranquil waters.

That evening, she makes her way to dinner with Omer, who harbors momentous news. It transpires that he has been promoted to partner, a turn of events signaling a seismic shift in their lives. Indeed, the transformations are unfolding at such a rapid pace that Leyla finds herself disoriented, questioning her own standing amidst the whirlwind. She is genuinely delighted for Omer and the transformative journey they are about to embark upon, yet she wonders if she is truly prepared for the institution of marriage.

Nonetheless, her birthday festivities press on, and as she exhales, blowing out the flickering candles, her thoughts wander once more to Cem. The morning after brings no respite, as Omer eagerly advocates for them to cohabit once again. Leyla, however, remains ambivalent, torn between the wisdom and appeal of such a move.

Flashing back to the present moment, Cem unexpectedly enters the scene. Omer's demeanor darkens, but Leyla turns her gaze to her fiancé—Omer—inquiring whether he harbors any confessions of his own.
