Affan, who wants to use the confusion in the dervish lodge to his advantage, comes to Sadi Hüdayi with a very dangerous proposal about Mürşid, while Cüneyd tries to find him to meet his grandfather. At the end of the day, when Sadi Hüdayi is about to take the post, Cüneyd will use a centuries-old tradition of the dergah to raise a flag for his uncle.
