Ada, who has become the number one gossip topic at the company, gets the nickname "27" because she is Bora's 27th assistant. While the employees bet on how permanent it will be, Ada tries to stay on good terms with Bora. As she starts researching to get to know her rival Tuğçe better, Rüzgar, who keeps his marriage a secret, sees Ada as a threat to the company and tries to drive her away. After the video scandal, Bora gets an opportunity to tidy things up. Learning that the other party will come to the extremely critical business dinner with his wife, Bora decides to go to the dinner with Tuğçe. On the other hand, Ada sets up a game for Tuğçe so that Bora can go to dinner with her and she succeeds.
