There's no need to panic.
Please exit the building.
[Amahle] Mom!
What happened? What was that?
- And this?
- I don't know.
[footsteps approaching]
[Gabisile] Don't just stand there
looking at your mess.
- You moron!
- What do you mean, Gabisile?
- I double checked
- You didn't double check anything here.
- Now look. Look what happened!
- But I double checked.
- Double checked? Double It's your fault!
- It's not my fault, man!
How the hell did the statue fall down?
- It wasn't an accident, that's for sure.

This was not an accident.
[siren wailing]
[Nkanyamba] Everything went well, sir.
[Mandla] Very well indeed.

- [grunts]
[sighs] Old man.
[Vusi] Listen, you'll meet up with Happy
tomorrow at 6.
I'll confirm the location.
All right.
[engine starts]
[Akin] I think we should, um, reconnect.
Take some time out this weekend.
You, me. No work.
- [grunts]
- You need a break.
- Fuck it.
- Uh
- I think it was Mandla.
- Hmm?
I think it was Mandla.
Fuck, even Mandla
Even he wouldn't do that, eh?
People almost died.
I think it was Mandla.
Shit.
[Khanyi clicks tongue]
[Akin sighs]
- Want some coffee?
- Hmm. Yes, please. Coffee.
- Okay.
- Great.
[Khanyi] Fuck.
Coffee.
[Khanyi]
Can't resist a good story, can you, Sean?
Fucking Mandla.
[phone buzzes]
[Amahle] Hey, Dad.
My child, morning. I've missed you.
I've missed you too.
[groans] I'm so glad
you were there last night.
- Mmm. Scary, right?
- Mmm.
Well, look at this place.
Your mother has always had
- great taste.
- [both chuckle]
Yeah, you should come live here.
Hmm. [inhales]
I can't.
Hmm. I think you should.
What is it? Is everything okay?
Mm-hmm.
I just think Ma's lonely.
[chuckling] Your mother is far too busy
to be lonely.
- That woman.
- [Khanyi] Here's some coffee.
Thank you, darling. Thank you.
I know I said no work,
but I have to pop in to the office today.
Mmm. Someone is trying very hard
to get hold of you.
[phone beeps, buzzes]
What the
[phone beeping, buzzing]
[phone beeps]
[sighs]
Amahle, what's this?
[phone beeps]
[Khanyi] Amahle Adesina.
What is this?
Oh, my God!
What the hell were you thinking?
Stupid, man. Stupid!
What the hell?
[Gabisile] So much noise.
Calm down, my love. Whoa!
Dad. [stammers] I
It's not what it looks like, okay?
It's just the angle of the camera. Uh
I can see the poor child is unconscious!
[Gabisile] Okay, don't shout at him.
That's not going to help at all.
Dad, you have to believe me, okay?
She was completely drunk,
and then she threw herself on me, Dad.
But she threw herself on me!
[Gabisile] You know that I trust Nido.
You know this is not true.
Unless she had something to do with it.
Don't you see that what you did is wrong?
Do you know the trouble you've put us in?
Hey!
I'm the one talking to you.
I'm asking you,
do you know what you did is wrong?
Do you know how much trouble
we're about to be in?
Do you not realize?
- But I didn't do it!
- Shh. My baby. Come here.
I know that. I know that, okay?
[Nkanyamba] Sir, they're here.
[guard] I'm going to have to search you.
Pat him down.
Take him, then let's go.
He's going nowhere
unless I'm right by his side.
Well, in that case,
no one will be going anywhere.
Now those are the orders we received.
But that is not what we agreed on before.
[Mandla] Uh, Nkanyamba.
It's okay. I'll be all right.
You heard your boss there. So move!
[clicks tongue]
Take him.
And, you, my guy.
[clicks tongue]
[doors open]
[grunting, groaning]
[sobbing]
- [knocking]
- [Khanyi] Mahle?
Please let us in, my love.
I ran to stop Nido and his friends.
I wasn't part of it.
We believe you, my baby. We believe you.
We're all just so shocked that Nido
could do such debaucherous things.
- Open, baby. Please open for us.
- Mom?
- Yeah?
- Have you guys seen the video?
[whispering] Yeah, she's in here.
Where's the original video?
Is it on your phone, eh?
[door unlocks]
[Amahle] No.
It was a live post.
Who would cut the video to make it
look as if she's part of it, huh?
We didn't have to put up with this shit
in Cape Town.
[phone buzzing]
- Oh, I have to take it. It's Siya.
- [Akin] Okay.
- Yes, Brother.
- Tell me,
why would Amahle go around
recording a video like that?
She ruined my child's entire life.
Even worse, she has disgraced
this whole family.
Brother, she didn't do it on purpose.
It was live video.
Obviously,
somebody got hold of it and edited it.
But why would she even be recording?
Why would she record that?
Because, Brother, these days you know
how kids are. They record everything.
Amahle didn't know she'd walk in
and find Nido on top of a girl!
All right. Fine then.
I'll see you at Spear.
[Mandla panting, grunting]
I really hope you like bacon and eggs.
You're used to it, right?
- [chuckles]
- [panting]
[panting] I'm here to meet
with the head of the A6s.
[chuckles] Right.
Who could have ever known
that the Boyabenyathis,
all those major big boys,
would come to my humble home and sit down
to eat the food that was made
with so much care by me?
[sighs] No, I'm not hungry.
I'll wait for your husband.
You will eat.
I don't wanna play these games right now.
Maybe after the meeting.
That's why I'm here.
This is not a game.
I said, "You will eat."
All right. [inhales]
Okay. All right. Okay.
[A6 leader chuckles] Faster.
There's someone you need to meet.
A slut?
You called a child a slut, Gabisile!
She's a slut, now?
'Cause she is one?
Are you trying to make things
worse for us? Have you no shame?
And with your own account, too.
Why the hell would you even do that?
Nido is my child.
Whoever wants to tarnish his name
will have to go through me.
And what will happen
when the media gets hold of this?
The mother of the offender,
going and attacking the victim like that.
That will not only affect Nido,
but the entire family.
Delete this shit.
It's deleted.
Good.
[Mandla] Let's not beat around the bush.
I'll just get straight to it.
I want to make it clear
that I'm eager to do business with you.
You want to talk business
yet you're such a damn loser.
A nobody.
Sit there. Relax.
[lawyer]
Amahle isn't at any risk, legally.
Ndleleni on the other hand,
that all depends on
whether the aggrieved party
wants to file a lawsuit for the assault.
Aggrieved party?
My son is hurting
and, please, let me tell you,
it's all because of this damn video.
Everyone has literally taken his head
and placed it on a table.
And no one is questioning this girl!
Nobody!
I'm sorry. What exactly
are we questioning about this girl?
Are you serious right now?
All right,
let me start from the beginning.
First of all, she was drunk.
- So you want to blame her
- [Ntombenhle] Hey, be quiet!
If you want to argue,
take your fight outside, please.
Yes, Ma.
So, what are the legal consequences
for my son?
[lawyer]
It all comes down to interpretation.
We could argue that what happened
didn't have
any component of sexual assault.
That the rubbing was incidental.
- That the rubbing had no lewd intent.
- Oh, come on.
[Gabisile] Yeah, and what's
the worst case scenario here?
What are we talking here? A fine?
I'm afraid your son could go to,
uh, juvenile correctional service.
Or to jail.
- [groans]
- And now you'll meet me inside.
[person groaning, shouting]
[thuds]
The truth is, he actually deserved
for us to kill him.
Since we caught him
helping himself to our product.
[shouting continues]
- [knife slashes]
- [shouting continues]
- Oh, hey there, man!
- [thief groaning]
It's good to see you here.
[chuckles]
So, are you frightened of a little blood?
[henchman] How are you doing? You well?
Hello. My name is Funeka.
I'm the one responsible for PR at Spear.
My experience in this line
of work has taught me that sometimes,
you are going to be forced
to fight fire with fire.
What does that entail exactly?
We need to take away Sara's victim status.
Show her as a minor, a minor
who first broke the law by drinking.
And second, seduced another minor,
only to have him denounced unfairly,
- and take advantage of the situation.
- [Gabisile] Yeah.
- Exactly.
- Yeah.
That's what
I've been saying this whole time.
[Amahle] But it wasn't like that.
Yes, Sara got drunk, but not on purpose.
And she didn't take advantage of Nido.
- Who asked you? You're just a child.
- [Khanyi] Oh, sister-in-law, please.
We have to find a way
of defending Nido without attacking Sara.
I am not gonna sacrifice my child.
No one is asking you
to sacrifice anything.
How about putting yourself
in that child's shoes?
Can you imagine
what she's going through right now?
Have you looked at her profile lately?
That girl only wants attention,
and now she's victimizing my boy
to get that attention!
So, victim blaming
is what we're doing now?
It must be nice
to sit there all comfortable. Isn't it?
Because it's not your child going to jail.
Your's is fine,
mine is going to jail, right?
- What?
- [Ntombenhle] No Ndlovu is going to jail.
Funeka.
Please do whatever you need
to help Ndleleni.
Mum,
you're actually giving them permission
to destroy the poor child even further?
Khanyi, what I'm doing
is keeping my grandchild out of jail.
I'm not just going to stand by
and watch how my family's
getting pushed around. Never!
There really is nowhere else like this.
Every single time I get a chance
to do this, it's like my first.
Have a seat.
Sgujana, bring some water!
Hey,
we can see you're scared now,
so let's not waste time.
Do you know where you are?
You're at the movies.
This is where the credits started rolling,
the end of the film of me and your father.
Your father was very obedient.
He always did as he was told.
Uh Wait.
If we're going to be honest,
it's the A6s It's you who killed my dad.
If we're going to work together,
there can't be any secrets.
[A6 leader] I respected him.
I thought he was one of us,
but he was a coward.
A real sissy.
The deal is off.
I wanted to kill your father,
but unfortunately,
it turned out there was not enough time.
You can see we're busy people.
So we'll call you tomorrow.
In the meantime,
you can book a presidential suite.
[forensic expert] Apologies for the delay.
What is that?
It's an active substance
used like a detonator.
An explosive.
So, it wasn't an accident?
We're still waiting for confirmation
from the lab, but yes.
It looks like it wasn't an accident.
What?
[Mandla gasping, grunting]
[henchman] Ah, tough guy.
How did you sleep?
[Mandla panting, groaning]
- [screaming]
- Let the darkness come out of you here.
Let the darkness come out of you!
[Mandla gasping]
[gasping continues]
[shouting, grunting continues]
As I was saying,
your father was like family to me.
My blood.
But after some time,
I didn't want an equal.
What I need everyone to realize
is who is calling the shots.
The big boss.
[groaning]
- [A6 leader] Understood?
- [groaning]
Do you understand?
Yes! [groans]
I guess you You want me
to kill your, uh, sister, right?
I never said that I want you to kill her.
Well now, that's funny
because I actually do
want to send her to her ancestors.
Fast! Quick!
Why are you here?
I came here
because I wanted to make a deal with you.
There's no deal
that you're gonna make with me here.
But we can talk.
[gasping] So you're not
Are you not letting me go?
People are gonna start worrying
about me soon.
I'll make you suck on this.
[groaning]
I'll make you suck on this thing here.
Because I can see what a damn bitch
you are right now.
[groaning]
- Do you want to suck it? Do you?
- [panting]
