Sarper doesn’t want a kid. No. This was a test. A test to see how submissive Shekinah is to him.
He is 100% acting out stuff he’s read on redpill forums/influencers etc. You can hear it in his specific demands
The whole “I can find someone in two days” and “give me what I want or leave”
This is a redpill strategy where they tell men to act like the prize. It’s the theory that women will stay if you act like you will drop them in a heartbeat
Then when Shekinah actually decided to start packing, this is where his ego deflates. She’s suppose to bend to his every want but instead she’s leaving.
And just like that, Sarper’s “alpha” begins to deflate because it isn’t going his way. That’s why you see him get angry, doing what he thinks is the “alpha” thing to do
I agree that this was a test. The man is in his mid forties and has never wanted a child before. Why he is all of a sudden so hell bent on having a child after being faithful for some 80 days for the first time in his life, makes no sense. He is testing how much control and power he has over her and so far she is reacting in an admirable manner - by doing the right thing and leaving.
It remains to be seen next episode to see if she has self esteem enough to follow through.
He has a child. He just doesn’t know where he is at.
incredibly abusive behavior, to threaten leaving or “breaking up” to gain a desired outcome
