Having lost a child, Hatice lost her mind. She could not bear the thought that she had killed her own child. Ibrahim tried in every possible way to support the lady, but at that time, Hatice did not need the support of her husband. Hatice blamed Ibrahim for the death of his son, believing that he had sent a curse on their family by placing idols in the garden.
Valide is concerned about the state of her daughter, decides to temporarily take her to the palace in Edirne, leaving Ibrahim to experience their common grief, alone.
By order of Valide, Nigar-kalfa, in the absence of Hatice, should help Ibrahim.
Nigar realized long ago that she was in love with Pasha, and every day it became more and more difficult for her to hide her feelings.
At night, when Ibrahim was sleeping, Nigar could not resist and entered his chambers. Approaching the sleeping Ibrahim, Nigar decided to straighten the blanket. Ibrahim, accustomed to always being on the alert, abruptly turned around and grabbed Kalfa's hand.
Looking into Nigar's eyes, Ibrahim draws her to him, succumbing to a fit of passion.
For Nigar, this was a long-awaited and desired night with a loved one, but disappointment came in the morning. Ibrahim, waking up and seeing Kalfa next to him, orders to forget everything that happened that night between them, and then drives him out of his chambers and out of the palace.
Valide managed to strike Nigar off the list of expenses, so now she could not stay in Topkapı Palace, because henceforth she belonged to Ibrahim's palace. But even there, it was not needed.
Syumbul, not knowing what to do with Nigar, goes to Ibrahim for advice. However, the pasha did not want to see Kalfa in his palace. And since she cannot stay in the Sultan's palace, she orders Nigar to be sent to the old palace and married.
Ibrahim tried to forget the night spent with Nigar, but passionate moments surfaced in his memory again and again.
