As the Crow Flies(Kuş Uçuşu): Season 3, Episode 5 Recap

This episode gave us filler, fire, and full-on delusion. Somehow everything happened and nothing happened at the same time. Here's what went down.

In this episode:

• Lale casually plans to move to Nice with her ex-husband and kids, and forgets to tell Kenan. He finds out when he overhears her breaking her lease.
• When confronted, Lale says the words no partner wants to hear during a breakup: “I’m a mother.” Kenan spirals. Their argument is a mess of guilt trips and dramatic exits.
• Asli walks into work replaying the closet hookup with Yusuf. He sits in Gül’s office looking like a man who knows his sins are catching up to him.
• Guliz is riding high on Lale’s departure and wants to toast to it. Yusuf is visibly uncomfortable. Asli is a masterclass in silence and side-eye.
• Müge ditches her CEO job to become a news anchor. She has zero training, partied the night before, and barely knows how to use her computer. We are already counting down to her on-air disaster.
• Guliz tries to seduce Yusuf with red wine, lingerie, and a Rolex. He thanks her. She breaks a wine glass and accuses him of cheating. He doesn’t deny it. Her fury is next-level.
• The next morning, Yusuf is gone. Guliz smokes alone in her office and vows to take down “the other woman.” The newsroom interns start gossiping.
• Asli might be in trouble. Or she might be getting a promotion. The tension is high and no one knows where the next slap will land.
• Lale and Asli meet for a drink at separate tables. Asli calls Lale out for needing pain and stealing dreams. It is brutal and weirdly moving.
• Müge makes her on-air debut. It’s awkward, stiff, and packed with fake confidence. She thinks she’s arrived. We think she’s going to crash.

Only a few episodes left. Betrayals are coming. Careers are about to implode. And someone is definitely getting revenge.

Thanks for listening, and we'll be back soon with another exciting episode recap!
