[Khanyi] Mzilikazi kaMashobane.
Hey. Is everything okay there by you?
I just wanted to check
if everything was on track.
Yeah.
It's all going exactly the way we planned.
I'm completely out of ideas.
Now that the harvest
has been entirely destroyed,
it will be difficult to cover the cost
of repairing all the damage
that occurred at the hotel.
We could lose everything.
The second construction payment
is the only thing that can save us.
Khanyi, I need you to be optimistic.
I'm convinced that we will find
another solution to resolve this thing.
Maybe there is, but I can't see it.
I'm beginning to question myself.
I'm wondering if maybe
I've destroyed everything.
Khanyi,
head up.
I know.
Good night.
Okay.
[line beeping]
[Akin] Let me guess. Dumisani.
It's just work, love.
- At this time of night?
- He's my CFO.
He can call me any time of the night.
I'm your husband.
[scoffs]
[sighs]
Wow, Brother.
You're turning me away?
Khanyi.
To be honest,
I'm just too tired to fight your battles.
I'm fighting my own.
[sighs]
Nido is in a foreign country
at the moment.
Oh, man.
Gabisile and I might get a divorce.
What?
You're leaving her?
I can't be with her, Khanyi.
I know what it is I want.
And what is that?
I want me.
The unaffected me.
Khanyi, every day when I look at myself,
I feel like I'm wearing a mask.
- Hmm.
- Smiling and laughing,
knowing very well that I'm not happy.
Because that's what the family wanted.
- That's what our father wanted, right?
- [Khanyi sighs]
And what I hate most about this situation
is that I don't even know
if Dad would've been happy or not.
But I also want my son
to be better than that,
be a man
and be accountable.
Something that
I've never been able to do my whole life.
It's going to be okay.
[clicks tongue] Oh, Brother.
[sighs]
It's going to be all right.
Yeah.
It will be all right.
It'll be all right.
[Khanyi] Yeah.
You know that smoking is not good for you.
I didn't realize that I had to tell you.
I haven't been able
to get hold of Nkanyamba.
He's not returning my calls.
Has he contacted you?
He's not my lapdog.
Hey, what's the matter with you?
I've been thinking about Ma.
Oh, yeah?
What about her?
When Mom killed herself,
she didn't leave a note or anything
to describe why she did what she did.
Your mother was bipolar and depressed
Yes, but something
Something was wrong with her.
So you didn't care to stop and ask her
why she felt the way she did?
Don't go there now.
You're looking for a problem.
- Let it go.
- [phone ringing]
Come on.
Mandla wants to sell my 20%
to keep this company afloat.
- Then what I have here right now
- Mm-hmm.
may just be the exact thing
you've been looking for.
So, last night, I found a way
to get into Nkanyamba's phone.
- [Khanyi] Did Mandla kill my father?
- [Dumisani] I don't think he did.
In fact, looks like our friend Nkanyamba
is carrying out his own investigation
into your father's death.
So then it can't be Mandla
who killed my father, right?
That's correct, yes.
But
Now take a look at this.
All these messages are still proof
that Mandla is definitely up to no good.
[Khanyi] The statue,
it was laced with explosives?
He put our lives in danger.
That still doesn't help us, though.
Whatever Nkanyamba may be busy with,
it won't help us tie the killer up.
Nor will it save this company.
Oh, boy.
Are you meeting with Titus today?
Yeah.
[Pandora blusters]
[Andrew] Njabulo.
Come, we must talk.
What is wrong with you?
It's like you're falling apart, man.
- [Pandora whinnies]
- That's it. It's over.
I'm taking you off the team.
No, you can't take me off the team.
You can't do that.
I'm not getting off the team.
Unless you get off
your entitled high horse,
you'll never ride for this team again!
Ever! Do you understand?
[grunts]
[Akin] Njabulo.
[Njabulo sighs]
Njabulo!
[grunts]
[Njabulo] Yeah?
[sighs]
[sighs]
[moans]
[chuckles]
- How was training?
- [clears throat]
Good.
So, you are ready for competition?
- Yeah.
- Excellent.
- I wanted to talk to you.
- [Njabulo sighs]
Yeah, which one is it this time?
Oh, "Njabulo,
you have to go to Cape Town."
Or maybe it's your second favorite one,
"Njabulo, what are you gonna study?"
You know what? Dude, I'm actually
not in the mood for this, okay?
Actually, no.
As impossible as it may have seemed to me,
you have pulled yourself straight.
Well done.
Okay.
Thank you.
As a family, we have been through a lot.
As your father, I was worried about you.
As much as I hate to admit it, your mother
may have been right to send you here.
And I look forward to watching you ride
that seven-million-rand horse
to victory, my son.
You can always talk to me.
Always.
Cool. I'll just go
have this upstairs, yeah?
Auntie K, I'm not sure I can do this.
This is important, Thulisile.
I wouldn't have asked if it wasn't.
I know, but it just feels so underhanded.
Sometimes, you have to
beat them at their own game.
It's important.
And it's a good thing we're doing.
Do you know it was your dad
who sabotaged the statue at the hotel?
We need to fight for ourselves, Thuli.
I'll be back.
[people chattering]
[guard] Bag and phone, please.
[Titus] Khanyi, come in.
Uh, please get her a drink.
No, thank you.
I'm so sorry to hear about
the loss of the sugarcane fields.
- I heard it was the whole harvest.
- It was hard.
I didn't know that sugarcane
was so sensitive to the Durban heat.
It's not but it will sort itself out.
How can I help you?
- About the highway.
- [chuckles]
I'm willing to
keep the deal you have with my brother.
Well, that arrangement's already expired.
For things to flow smoothly again,
I need a new deal in place.
I'm listening.
I want twice as much.
But I thought you were retiring.
Actually, no.
I'm up for reelection.
I need the capital.
Someone has to get this country
back on track.
Why am I not even surprised?
You're just as greedy as everyone else.
You're nothing but a pig!
If you don't fall into line,
I'll bury what's left of Spear.
That much I promise you.
The good thing, Titus,
is that your words are meaningless.
You're going to pay
for everything you've done.
And that is a promise.
Mark my words.
[car door opens, closes]
[pants]
I think we've got it.
Yeah. I just have to transfer
all the audio to you as soon as possible.
Okay, cool. See you later, my baby.
- Okay, sure.
- Bye.
Bye.
[phone ringing]
[sighs]
- [Khanyi] How about lunch, my love?
- Now is not a good time.
I'm in the middle of something.
Oh, okay.
Bye-bye.
[phone buzzes]
- [Dumisani] How did it go?
- I think we got it. Yeah.
- How about lunch?
- I have a lot of meetings.
Do you think that we could make it dinner?
Wonderful. I'll see you at the office.
Okay. I'll see you later.
Okay, bye.
[school bell rings]
[sighs]
Hey, Amahle.
- I didn't know you were back.
- Hey.
Why are you here by yourself?
Um, I just wanted some peace and quiet.
Okay, fine.
I'm hiding.
I'm sorry
you have to go through all of this.
Dude, it's such a nightmare.
Sara's not coming back.
Nido's been suspended.
You know, sometimes I wonder.
I never should have taken that video.
And then what would you have done?
Just watched?
No, I-I would've said something.
Look,
it just could've been handled better.
- With a cover-up, right?
- No!
Like
[sighs] Look, it's complicated, okay?
Nido's been sent away
What now? He's not going to court?
- I-I don't know.
- [scoffs]
- This has been really hard for my family.
- I'm sure it has been.
- Okay? It feels like everyone has lost.
- [scoffs]
Geez. Yeah, right.
You know, Amahle.
I didn't mean for you
to get caught up in all of this.
- It was never my intention, but you just
- It wasn't your intention?
But I see now you're just as bad as them.
You did this?
- I thought you were my friend!
- I am.
Amahle, I am your friend, okay?
But some people need to be
held accountable for the stuff they do.
I defended you to them.
And I defended you
by releasing that full video.
[scoffs] You know,
you act like you're better than us,
but you're just as bad as them,
aren't you?
[gasps] That's a lie.
Amahle, just open your eyes.
[clicks tongue]
[thunder rumbles]
Um, can you please just wrap
this up before it gets dry? Thank you.
Gabisile?
[Gabisile] Hmm.
So, this is where all the magic happens?
Let's not waste each other's time,
Gabisile. What is it?
You and me
will have to work something out.
A divorce is not fitting.
Divorce?
You didn't know?
No.
[chuckles]
And did he perhaps tell you
about Nido, that he wants to talk to him?
And the entire time, I thought
you were pushing him to make a choice.
Well, listen here, girl.
I am not with Siya any longer.
We broke up.
What?
I can't believe he didn't tell me.
Why should he?
It's not your concern.
- Yes, he might as well go through with it.
- What?
He's gonna come out
and finally live his truth.
Now listen here.
I need not a word from you.
The family's reputation
will be ruined, okay?
[Meera sighs] My bosses aren't happy.
The investigation around the premier
is very bad for business.
Yeah, that's gang related.
It's the A6s.
They're aware of these sick criminals.
The one that they don't know about is you.
- Oh, yeah?
- Yeah.
But you know me, right?
And you trust me.
Look,
my family has agreed to kick Khanyi out.
So the CEO position will be all mine.
Come on, make the deal.
Hmm?
I trust
- your ambition.
- Hmm.
But you're very much
like a hungry dog wanting more,
and more, and more,
and more, and more.
And that is dangerous.
You better not let me down.
The people that I work for are
just as dangerous as the A6s, if not more.
I'll see you tomorrow.
[Siya]
I wasn't expecting to hear from you.
I just had to find out for myself
after Gabisile came over to see me.
I knew it.
The stuff about the divorce and Nido,
could that honestly be the truth?
Yeah.
The actual fact of the matter is that
I'm gonna get my things
and then move in to live with you.
Siya, what are you talking about?
[chuckles]
Yeah, I'm moving in.
You said you wanted the real thing.
[chuckles]
[chuckles]
["Kiss Me" playing]
Siya, just listen.
Siya, let's talk about this, please.
Do this for me.
I have nothing more to say.
I've made my decision.
Why all the hatred? What have I done, huh?
Listen, Gabisile.
It's because I love you that
I've made this decision.
Living this lie
is like spending life in jail.
I made this choice
so no one has to do this anymore.
You're going to ruin our lives.
People will talk all about me, Siya!
Our friends will laugh about us
behind our back!
Whoa! Just listen. Listen.
Things can go back
the way they were, okay? Listen.
- Gabisile!
- Siya, please
- Gabisile!
- No! Please don't leave me!
[sobbing] Please.
[moans]
[Khanyi gasps, moaning]
[gun cocks]
How you doing, bozo?
I've been worried.
I kept seeing the premier
in a critical condition.
So she's still alive.
It's not my fault that your hit men
don't know how to do their job.
Whoa.
This whole problem is on you, my friend.
You got in the way.
So, you're fixing this, Mandla
because I'm asking you.
How am I going to fix it?
I'm not a killer, man.
[screams, groaning]
[A6 member] Mandla.
[groaning continues]
- Mandla.
- [groaning]
Listen to me.
You know, my sister,
when she happens
to call you one more time,
you better
give her good news, hmm?
Give her all of it.
'Cause at the moment,
I feel like taking
the beautiful skin on your face
- and peeling it right off!
- [groans]
[yelps]
- Boss, you all right?
- I'm all right! Just leave me, man!
Fuck.

when she happens
to call you one more time,
you better
give her good news, hmm?
Give her all of it.
'Cause at the moment,
I feel like taking
the beautiful skin on your face
- and peeling it right off!
- [groans]
[yelps]
- Boss, you all right?
- I'm all right! Just leave me, man!
Fuck.
