01x07 - Wedding Bells

[bunniefuu]

["Believe Me (HK Deep Disco Edit)"
by Loui & Scibi ft. Beth Aggett playing]

[car horns honking in distance]

[video call ringing]

[video call being answered]

[Diamond] Yes, Nadia, how are you?

[Nadia] Hi, how are you?

-How have you been?
-[Nadia] I've been good. How you doing?

I've been a bit busy.

I like traveling to different countries.

Finalizing my album.

It's the life that I've decided to live,
so… can't complain.

[Nadia] Oh, so you've been super busy?

You know how things can be.

You're an artist.
You understand these things.

Sometimes your schedule
can be tight and crazy

in such a way that you can't even
touch your phone. So it's like…

A whole lot of excuses, firstly.

Because I was just like,
"Also, don't be that guy."

Just 'cause I said we not gonna have
a relationship doesn't mean

that we can't still be friends
or have communication.

But he completely ghosted me.

Which is unusual

for me to be ghosted.

How's everything there?

[Nadia] Everything's okay.

Got to know, um, Zari a bit better,

which was very interesting
for everybody involved.

-Yeah. What do you mean?
-[Nadia laughing]

Oh, I don't know.
Zari is a bit of a hectic hon, hey?

Okay.

[Nadia] It just felt like

she's been causing a bit
of drama with a few people,

and I'm just like, "I don't know
if Diamond even knows what's going on."

It's been a bit hectic at the moment.

I don't understand. It's something
that I never expected to hear.

And that's not the woman that I know.

How? Like, I don't get it. Like…

[Nadia] Have you not spoken to Annie?

I've never got a chance to.

But the only thing I know is that
I'm supposed to come there to the wedding.

[Nadia] I don't think it's my place
to tell him what's going on.

But now he seems a bit worried.

We never spoke anything.
She never told me anything about things.

Is something wrong there?

Hello?

[ominous music playing]

[upbeat music playing]

[Naked DJ] We are about to meet up
with Zandi,

and, yo, I have a lot to tell him
about that train wreck

that happened during that 48 hours.

-Yo, I need, like…
-I need a drink.

-[both laughing]
-Again.

I'm willing they make this a double.

'Cause you know what happens
when you're meeting with Zandi…

Wait, who's Zandi?

Zari and Andile.

[both laughing]

Okay.

[Andile] There was so much
going into the train,

the odds were stacked up
against Zari really,

so going into this drink session
with Naked and Kayleigh,

I'm a little curious
as to what could have gone down.

♪ All they want from me
What they want from me… ♪

[Zari] The things that happened
on the train were ridiculous.

They unsettled me.

And obviously
I need to catch up with Andile

and just fill him in on,
you know, what went down.

-Hey, baby. Aw.
-[Andile] Hello, beautiful.

-"Hey, baby"?
-[Zari] Mmm.

Ohh, this feels so good.

[Andile] If it starts like this,
we won't let go.

Okay, like…

[Naked DJ] Zari and Andile's situation,
it's still a secret.

But it's out in the open so we see it,
but nobody's saying anything.

-I missed you.
-Yeah?

-[Zari] I wish you know.
-Don't lie.

-What is this, guys?
-[Andile] Don't start.

-I really missed you. Oh.
-Guys, really?

What?

-It's a table of four.
-[Andile] Oh.

Y'all need to get used to that.

[playful music playing]

Guys, guys, wait, what about Diamond?

Like, what is Diamond gonna say
when he sees this?

Diamond is my ex. Don't you all have exes?

Guys…

When Nadia was doing whatever
they were doing with Diamond,

did anyone ever raise that question?

-The train. The famous train.
-The train. The train.

What happened on the train, K?

♪ When I come through
They know what it do ♪

♪ Queen and a G, you better make room… ♪

[Khanyi] I don't understand why with Nadia
I always feel like

I'm always meeting her,
haven't seen her. How are you doing?

Always delivering a report.

[Nadia] Where you coming from
looking like this?

-From the house down the road.
-There's no way.

I don't even want to hug you.
I'm so relaxed and look at you.

What the f*ck? You guys. [laughing]

-Hi!
-I'm here to deliver a report.

Oh my God, I can't wait for this,
you have no idea.

Like, she might as well
become Where's Wally?

Because Nadia is never around.

Okay, what happened?
Tell me. What's going on?

So, okay, Zari came up with the idea,
"Look, guys, let's try the train."

"My mom has always spoken about it.
It was a big thing in the 1980s."

-Yeah.
-She says, "Before we walk in, a toast."

-[Nadia] Mm-hmm.
-All right, cool.

Tears of Caesar, a toast.

Um, "I'd like to say thank you
for coming on my train."

[Nadia laughing] Sick.

When she's saying, "My train,"
is she insinuating she owns it,

or just because it's her thing?

No, no, she's insinuating that,
"It's my train. This is my trip."

Oh, her event.

-Her event.
-Okay.

So, I feel like there's seriously issues
between Zari and Annie, and…

I don't know
if Khanyi also has any issues.

But there is some sort of issue
that Quinton and I don't know about.

[Zari] We need
to understand something here.

Zari is the problem.

Zari is the energy here.
They are feeling the energy.

Here I am,

you know, standing up saying,
"Guys, thank you for honoring my invite."

Annie walks in, and Khanyi and Annie…
[mimics whispering] They're laughing.

And I'm like,
"Guys, I'm trying to have a speech here."

Then… [mimics whispering]
They're laughing.

It-- It came off so rude.

I am trying to say something.
You are demoralizing me.

You are trying to…

distract me.

I really did not know
where this was going on.

We were on the train. I was just trying
to get laid on the g*dd*mn train.

-Have a good time.
-Which you did though.

-[Zari laughs] I mean, duh.
-sh*t. Sure enough.

[all laughing]

Next thing,
people are screaming at each other.

People aren't talking to each other.

Zari couldn't even do a toast.

I actually tried to…

do some form of mediation
to find out what's going on,

and they tore me a new as*h*le.

-Like, literally… literally…
-[all laughing]

Naked is like, "Yeah, we need
to start being frank, and we're rude."

I was like, "Naked, don't shout at me,
number one, and what's the story?"

Swanky loses it.
I've never seen Swanky lose it.

[Nadia] This is the drama
I'm talking about.

'Cause if you can get Swanky to snap,
the most calm, Zen guy out of all of us

to lose his mind and raise his voice,

there's definitely
something wrong with you.

So she tried to get Naked
to be her firing back power?

Yes.

-Cahoots?
-Yes.

How did your wig not come off?
This is the thing that annoys me about you

is that you don't choose violence!

The wig would have
swiftly just come off my head,

and I would have been like, "Let's go.
This is what you want."

She's fetching you.

It's money, Nadia. I think money calms me.

And now we have a bachelorette.

-Do we invite her?
-But does Annie want her there?

-I doubt it.
-If she's there, I'm not coming.

The problem is that if I go there
and that stuff happens again,

I'm gonna spoil something
that's supposed to be special.

And you're a fighter.

Me, I'm quick to slap a b*tch.
Like, quick. Like, I'm quick to--

Even if I got called out like that,
I'm on such a short fuse with her.

I'm just like, she's not my friend.

No, sorry.

Stop, no and don't. I-I don't know.
I never liked her vibe from the beginning.

-I know.
-Even that night.

And vibes don't lie.

[exciting music playing]

Today is a very, very exciting day for me.

I've been planning, you know,
my vow renewal and everything.

But I'm so excited
that my kids are coming.

I've not seen my kids in a long time,
and I can't wait to see my girls.

-[Annie] Sunshine! My girl!
-[Swanky laughing]

[Annie and daughters screaming excitedly]

Come, baby!

[Annie] It's my joy
to have my family present,

'cause this is a special day for me.

-[girls] Hi, Uncle Swanky.
-Nice to see you. Welcome to South Africa.

Look at you.

I'm really, really excited.

So happy. Like… so, so happy.

[upbeat music playing]

[Innocent] The renewal date
is fast approaching,

and right now we're just going to go
and check some places out.

-[Swanky] Wow! What a beauty.
-[Annie] Okay.

[Innocent] I am mind blown.
The place is beautiful.

-[Swanky] Hello, hello!
-[Olivia] Hello!

-Hi!
-Are you ready?

The Idibias are in the building.

[Annie] We're meeting with Precious.
She's going to be our wedding planner.

She's like the best
in fricking South Africa.

She's good. Her taste is top-notch.

And we are the ones
who are having the wedding.

Yes, the wedding is ours.

All right,
we'll just ignore the two of them.

-Yes, it's our wedding.
-Just the two of you.

For the first wedding,
Olivia was not here.

She was made the night after the wedding.

I'm gonna copy my sister's line
she said when she was little.

Here comes the bride.
Make some way, make some way!

[Isabella] It's not "some way."
If you're gonna say it, say it right.

-[Olivia] Fine.
-Okay.

[Precious] Explains the excitement.

This is so special for Olivia.

She thinks it's her wedding.

You may now kiss the bride!

[all laughing]

-Is that you?
-What is she planning?

She wants to be the reverend, yeah.

I'm so happy
that Olivia gets to experience

Daddy and Mommy getting married.

This space, I think it's beautiful.

You can transform it a lot.
It's got potential.

[warm music playing]

Just looking around at my man, my kids,

another wedding…

I feel totally blessed.

Dreams come true.

I'm very excited today.

["Godoba (Original Big Mix)"
by Mandoza playing]

[Andile] We're at the racecourse…

[tires screeching]

…because it's, um, 2Baba's bachelor party.

[tires screeching]

[engines revving]

[man] Welcome to our adult theme park.

Okay, I like that.

This is possibly the most fun you can have
with your clothes on. I believe it.

[Innocent] Man! This is so cool, man,
to be having this bachelor party. Driving!

This is beautiful.

I haven't done anything like this before.

I mean, the only way
I burn rubber is in other ways.

[man] We're going to be going
to the clock,

so we want to see who of you
can get around our course the fastest.

So the challenge is
the blindfold challenge.

-2Baba.
-[Innocent] Let's do this.

Let's do this.

[Naked DJ] Now I'm going
to be blindfolded.

2Baba will be my navigator,

and he's gonna help me
navigate the course.

[engine revving]

-[Andile] This is like marriage.
-This is trust.

This is definitely marriage.

[Andile] He's actually quite good.

[Naked DJ] This is exactly what I learned
from couples therapy.

I should trust

and let my partner lead.

All right, and go right now.

-Right, right!
-[Naked DJ] Full right?

[Innocent] Not yet. Right.
No, right. Go right.

Ooh, ooh, ooh!

[man] He's doing really well actually.

[woman] He is doing really well.

[Innocent] Full right.

-Twelve, twelve!
-Twelve is straight.

Straight! No, like left.

-Left, sorry. Straight! Wait!
-[men laughing]

But, guys, when you are blindfolded,

it's a totally different story.

Are we there?

[man] Yeah, you're there.
You can take your blindfold off.

-f*ck.
-[man] Well done.

[men laughing, applauding]

-sh*t!
-Whoo!

-[bright music playing]
-[engine revving]

[Khanyi] With all the challenges,
with all the ups and downs,

tears, joy, laughter, planning,

so much has tested us as friends,
and I thought

why not bring everyone together,
'cause we couldn't do it on the train?

-Huh! Hello.
-[Khanyi] Hello!

[Kayleigh laughing]

Babes, look at you!

Just to celebrate
Annie's renewal of the vows.

I'm so excited.

I'm also excited.

We haven't seen each other
after the train.

-[Kayleigh] Since the train.
-I haven't seen you. Who have you seen?

I've seen Zari and Andile.

[dramatic music playing]

-How are they, yeah?
-They're-- they're weirdly good.

What do you mean?
Sit down, sit down. What do you mean?

[Kayleigh chuckles]

-So you don't know what's been going on?
-No!

I was throwing shade.
Like, "I know you're Team Zari

after what you did to me on the train,"
which she didn't get.

Instead, she gave me more juice, though.

So, the other day, Quinton and I,
we invited them for--

[whispering] She's walking in.
You owe me this.

-[normal voice] Zari.
-Hello.

-Good to see you.
-[Zari] How are you?

Yeah, speak of the devil.

-[Zari] Guys.
-Thank you.

[Zari] There's mixed feelings because
of how everything has been going.

There's still a bit of tension.

I'm hoping the train is not gonna come up,

Zari's not gonna come up,
nothing is gonna come up.

I'm really hoping
this is going to be about Annie.

[Annie] It's the first time all the girls,

we're all meeting up today.
It's my bachelorette party.

After the train and everything
that happened in the train,

I'm just hoping
that today will be beautiful.

It's my bachelorette, come on, guys.

[all shouting excitedly]

Black and white!
I told you never black and white.

[Kayleigh] Hello, babe.

[Annie] This minute, I'm not thinking
about I'm mad at Zari or not.

This minute, I'm just seeing
these women celebrating me right now.

You guys. Oh my God!

-To Annie.
-Thank you, thank you, thank you!

And I genuinely,
truly feel special tonight.

-[Khanyi] Oh, finally.
-[women cheering]

Hey! Bragga, Bragga, Bragga, Bragga!

-Hi!
-[Kayleigh] How are you?

[Nadia] This is so pretty!

Hi, Nadia!

-Hi.
-[Annie] So nice.

You're looking good, girl. Are you well?

[Nadia] I knew it. I knew there was
a potential of her being there.

And of course, she's here. I said clearly,

if she's at the bachelorette,
I am not coming

because I don't want weird vibes.

[tense music playing]

I mean, I'm sure we can all feel
the awkwardness in the room.

And then, fortunately,
Khanyi breaks the ice.

I'd like us to get into a room
and get naked.

Okay. I like it.

I'm up for this. Let's do this.
Let's get naked. [laughing]

-[indistinct chattering]
-[Annie] I like this color.

["You Know Tha Drill" by 20_2x playing]

-[Andile] You gotta have my back.
-Let me wear my seat belt.

You gotta have my back.

Swanky and I are such close friends

that I know that I don't want
to be paired up with Swanky.

-[Swanky] Wait. Andile, wait.
-Why am I waiting?

-You're going left.
-Please visualize this.

[all laughing]

Where are they going?

[laughing] Swanky!

Wait. Left. Turn, turn, turn, yes.

Oh my God, this is a ridiculous task.

No, no, no, no, no!

[Innocent] Swanky, what are you doing?

-You are going the wrong way.
-So tell me where to go.

Just go straight now.

[Swanky] I'm supposed to direct
someone who is blindfolded?

Wow, Swanky.

-Go left like this.
-Take a turn where?

You can't touch the steering wheel.

It doesn't matter right now. [laughing]

This is a complete disaster.

They are off circuit, they're on circuit,
they're across the circuit.

It's a mess.

[Swanky] No! You're going to k*ll us.

You said left!

Yes, but left is this way.

It was the left, though.

Go, go, straight.
You need to get into the garage.

Go straight. Go, keep going.
And then that's fine.

Thank you very much.

That didn't… That was too short.
That can't be it.

We're done.

We get to the end…

five seconds after we started.

I know I'm quick.

I'm not that quick.

No! [laughing]

-[men] Hey!
-[Naked DJ] Andile got out.

[overlapping dialogue]

[men] Hey, hey! [laughing]

No, no.

He said, "Left, right."
Then he said all the rights only.

I was like,
"There's no way there's two rights."

[all laughing]

[upbeat hip-hop music playing]

[Annie] Khanyi has pajamas for everybody.

With our names written boldly on it.

It's like all of us women
celebrating each other tonight.

Because you're getting married,
I've decided

that between today and tomorrow
I'll be kind.

You'll be kind.

Allow me to, uh… share.

I present to your skin…

[women exclaiming]

sh*t!

I had to just make it grand

and allow the nurses to roll in the juice.

You get a drip, you get a drip,
you get a drip, you get a drip.

We're going to be doing our IVs.

These are the best drips in the country.

These are compounded little elements
of multivitamins that the body needs.

Glutathione's fantastic for your skin,
your hair, your nails, all of that stuff.

It just pops my black.

It makes you look
even more beautiful than you are.

-[Annie] Yeah!
-So, yeah.

[Annie] Khanyi says it's good
for my immune system.

Why not…

if not?

Guys, how was the train?
I hate that I missed it.

Yeah.

[Nadia] How was it?

[tense music playing]

Right now, I'm thinking,
"I know where this is going."

Guys, is this really
the right time to bring this up?

I haven't been around.
I need to know. I've been hearing a lot.

I just knew that, you know,
this was gonna open a can of worms.

No, actually,
the party pooper was this one.

-Oh.
-[Nadia] Awks.

-[Khanyi] She hasn't said sorry yet.
-She hasn't said sorry?

Zari hasn't said sorry to anyone.

[chuckles] For what, Khanyi? Ugh!

Wait a second, apologize for what?
What did I do on the train?

I am being who I am.
I am loud, I'm vocal, I'm confident.

So what's it going to take
for you to let down your guard?

-What do you want me to do?
-Let down your guard.

Because I'm here. How about you try
and find your way up here,

instead of taking me down?

Let me again teach you
how we treat each other in this group.

-Mm-hmm.
-Yes, I had a problem with your speech.

But I will not fetch you during people
to make you feel small.

And we've all had differences here.

But we don't call each other out
to make each other feel small.

-We don't. Here there's decorum.
-[Zari] Oh no.

Oh no, Khanyi, this was not about
making anybody small, Nadia.

-It's about that.
-[all arguing]

But if she felt that way,
you can't dismiss how she felt.

It's her feeling.

Talking to Zari
is like talking to a brick wall.

It honestly feels like…

You know that saying,
"You can't teach an old dog new tricks"?

She reminds me of my mom.

Like, you know oldheads,
where they're set in their ways

'cause they were in the trenches
and walked ten miles to school every day,

so you can't tell them nothin'?
That's Zari.

My thing is I don't wanna not like you
without knowing you.

-And I feel like--
-That's why she had to be here today.

I-I was okay never seeing her again,
personally.

-[Khanyi] You had to.
-[Nadia] I'm just saying--

Nadia, you heard a whole lot of other side
of the stories. You didn't hear from me.

The way Nadia perceives me
leaves one wondering.

She's just there, where she's been told,

"We have a problem."
And she's like, "What's the problem?"

"Zari."
"Oh, cool. So are we fighting?"

"Yeah, we're fighting."
"Okay, let's go."

What are you fighting?

The question is,
Nadia, what are you fighting?

No, but you always
are choosing violence, Zari.

Even now when she said,
"I want an apology,"

your demeanor changes.

-You already become--
-No, I didn't. I said--

Don't say, "I didn't." I'm telling you,
it's something I'm observing.

Do you wanna be friends with us?

[dramatic music playing]

-Is it something you want?
-[Zari scoffs]

-Hello, hello, hello!
-[thrilling music playing]

-Hello!
-[Khanyi] Swanky! [laughing]

At last. You know, Swanky, he takes away
from all the negativity in the room.

We could just change the subject
and just move forward from this.

Before I get into all of this,

Annie,

I have a big surprise for you.

[Khanyi] Another surprise?

[Swanky shouting] Surprise, surprise!

Is it a person?

-[Swanky] It's a whole person!
-[Annie screaming]

[Swanky laughing]

-Hey, babe!
-[Annie screaming excitedly]

And it's Tania Omotayo.

[in Ibibio]
My Nigerian white girl is here.

[in English] I was so excited
to see Tania.

[exclaiming in Ibibio] My god.

[in English] I don't know
if you wanna go to the bathroom

and probably look like us.

-Okay.
-[Swanky] Mm-hmm.

That means Khanyi
knew that Tania was around,

and she was also keeping
that a secret from me.

[exclaims] This one just made my night.

You guys walked in
into a very serious time.

[Nadia] I asked for a low-down.

'Cause I don't know where
Zari sits in the grand scheme of things,

and I had to address it, so…

-But then, she's still being mean.
-[Nadia] Still mean.

Come on.

We just went straight back into
how horrible Zari is.

She's still a d*ck.

She's not being receptive.
That's all I'm saying.

-[Annie] You guys, listen…
-Anyway, Annie, go ahead.

For every time,
all my experience with Zari,

there's always something wrong
before the day is done.

I don't want anything
negative on that day.

That day's special to me.

I don't want all of that.
We've all been in love.

-I want to believe we're in love or--
-[Zari clears throat]

Would you like some water?

-Oh no. For what?
-We don't want you to choke, darling.

-Thank you, though.
-Gotcha.

I'm not trying to be
a troublemaker or anything,

but I really don't want
this kind of vibe at my wedding.

I don't want Zari there
for my ceremony because…

[Zari] What is it so special
about Annie's wedding?

This is not Beyoncé and Jay-Z.
This is not Princess Diana.

It's just Annie.

Annie, it is well with me. Okay?

Whether I attend Annie's wedding
or I don't attend,

regardless,
nothing reduces or rises with me.

I am Zari, the boss lady.

The fact that you have me
on your wedding renewal,

it's value for you.

Not the opposite.

[chill music playing]

[Annie] Since I've been here,
I've been having a lot of dinners

and hang out and drinks with my friends
over here and everything.

But tonight, in this room,

it's more familiar,

because it's my kids, my husband,
my very close friends from home.

-Annie, are you excited?
-About this wedding?

For our wedding.

-[Innocent laughing]
-Wait, what's wrong with your auntie?

-She keeps asking--
-It's our wedding.

-[Annie] It's my wedding!
-Our!

Not, not, not our.

Swanky…

Our.

[all laughing]

This feels so relaxed and…
[inhales through teeth]

…no pressure at all. Just happiness.

It's a beautiful night. I'm happy.

-Mama, is Daddy paying bride price again?
-[Olivia] All the way to heaven.

That's a good point.

Uh-huh!

You've gotta pay bride price!

I don't understand. I don't understand.

-I want another promise.
-There's one question I want to ask.

Another ten years to be faithful.
No cheating.

[tense music playing]

-[in Pidgin] What is cheating?
-[Tania] Amen.

[Isabella] Period. What is cheating?

-[in English] Cheating?
-[Tania, in Pidgin] What's that?

[in English] We don't know what that is.
Never heard of it before.

Your relation is like
me and Isabel's relationship.

We fight, we love. We fight, we love.

We don't show. We show.

[scoffs]

This child. [chuckles]

[tranquil music playing]

Today's the day that my kids and I
have been waiting for. [laughing]

-Precious! Hi!
-Hi, Precious.

[Precious] Hello.

-Are you surprised?
-[Annie laughing happily]

[Annie] Looking exactly like
how I wanted it.

African royalty dining.

[all] Yes.

[Annie] This is beautiful.

Precious, well done, girl!

Thank you. Pleasure.

Precious did a good job here.

[upbeat music playing]

[Andile] Yo, the big man.

Hey!

-My man.
-[Andile] What it do?

[Andile] I'm seeing 2Face
for the first time on his big wedding day.

And the big brodie's not all here,

and I'm glad I came to see him
and talk to him because…

I'm not sure if it's nerves.

I cannot deny there's no tension.
There's tension. [laughs]

-Yeah.
-[Innocent] But that's what happens.

I bet before every match, Ronaldo, Messi,
whoever, I believe they still have that…

-Ah, I hear you. The anxiety.
-That's, like, there.

-"I hope this match goes well."
-[Andile] Mm-hmm.

So the same here, man.

[Innocent] Annie and I, man,
we've been together for over 19 years.

But, uh, this is our tenth year
of marriage.

The years that we're counting
is just for formality.

We've known each other
for… for a long, long time, you know.

Well, at least this time,

you're guaranteed
there's an "I do" at the end of it.

But some people might say, "Okay,
speak now or forever hold your peace,"

and somebody will just show up.

[Andile laughing]

So from the many conversations
that Annie and I have,

she's asked me to…

oversee, "minister," the wedding for them.

Well, I'm going to be holding it down
for you.

-[Innocent laughs]
-I'll just be wishing you well.

Thank you.

[Andile] So, I'm-- I'm nervous.

And the nerves come from…

wanting it to be perfect for my friend.

[romantic music playing]

[Tania] Are you ready?

I… [sighs]

I don't even know. [chuckles emotionally]

I don't know if it's nervous,
or it's anxiety, but…

[clicks tongue, inhales deeply]

Hmm. [chuckles emotionally]

But I want to do this.

I know. I'm so sad
that your families couldn't make it.

I know.

I wish your mom was here.

At least my mom.

-And Inno's mom.
-Innocent's mom as well and everybody.

But it's okay. We'll try
and make it as special as we can for you.

Both our dads are late.

But both mothers are not here,
and that hit me.

I just hope that God
just gives us the grace to…

-God is faithful. He shall.
-…get old. [chuckles]

-Give me your hands. Close your eyes.
-Are you really doing this?

Yes, I am. 'Cause your mom
is not here, and I'm so sad,

and I know that
she would have prayed for you.

My prayers are not going to be
as strong as hers.

I cannot speak in tongues.

-[Annie sniffles]
-[Tania] But we shall try.

Dear Lord, thank you for today.

Thank you for Annie's life.
Thank you for Innocent's life.

I put this day in your hands.
I put Annie and Innocent in your hands.

Lord, I pray that
nothing will ever come between these two,

and I pray that you continue
to watch over them.

I pray that you continue to bless them.

I pray that you continue
to guide them through everything they do.

In your name, I've prayed.

[both whisper] Amen.

-[Tania] Love you. Mm.
-[Annie sniffles]

-It's gonna be a great day. Don't worry.
-Right?

Everything is gonna be well.

[sighs] My makeup!

[Tania screams] Ah, mercy!
[laughs] I spoilt the makeup!

[uplifting music playing]

[Naked DJ] So, ladies and gentlemen,
we are gathered here today

for this beautiful occasion,
as we celebrate ten years

of Annie and 2Baba.

They've had a turbulent ten years,
but we're here to… to celebrate.

[romantic music playing]

[Khanyi] I could easily say that I've had
a front-row seat to this relationship.

I've had my issues with 2Baba as a man,

because every time Annie spoke,

it was about the struggles
and how she's always compromising herself,

really giving up what she wanted for him.

So here we are.

Even though I don't understand everything,
it's okay because I love you.

-[Nadia] How beautiful is this venue?
-[Kayleigh] It's so gorgeous.

[Nadia] It's so pretty.

It's making me have FOMO.
I feel like I want to get married.

The fact that they're renewing
their vows is amazing to me, I think.

-Yeah.
-I hope they're good.

I don't know. Have you spoken to her?

We didn't get a chance to speak about
how she's doing in her relationship

-because everything was…
-Always about…

…about Zari.

Do you think Zari's gonna show up?
Do you think she's gonna come?

We all know
Annie's made it very clear to Zari

that she does not want her at her event.

'Cause I know that there's a chance
she could pull up with Diamond.

I highly doubt she's gonna come.

If I were her,
I would never have pitched up.

Yeah, I honestly do feel
like it was a bit…

It felt like a bit of a g*ng-up fest.

-It was.
-It was weird.

It was so ganged up.
I felt so sorry for her.

When you're in a group setting
and have other people to back you up,

you know, it's easy to get carried away
and be mean to someone.

But the moment you step back out of it,

I guess that's when you realize like,
"Maybe I was a bit mean."

I feel that's what
Nadia's starting to feel.

Do you feel bad that she's not here?

I feel bad she's not here,

but I also respect
the fact that it's Annie's wedding.

-Yeah, and you don't want drama.
-No, I mean…

-So you do realize she's dramatic.
-I'm happy that she's not here for--

So you do realize she's dramatic?

[spluttering] I don't think…

-Yes!
-…she's the only dramatic one.

Not only. I'm saying her,

in the grand scheme of things,
is dramatic.

She's just a dramatic person
in the circle that, if she were pitching,

most likely there's going to be drama.

If she arrived

right now,

that means she's openly telling
all of us as a squad squad squad,

she is choosing violence, "Let's go."

I don't think
she's gonna try and crash the…

-I mean, that would be dope though.
-[both laughing]

-What do you mean?
-If she was like wedding crashers.

[Khanyi] What do you think of the dress?

-[Naked DJ] Hm. It's a lot.
-What do you mean it's a lot?

You know
you're not getting married tonight, right?

My dress is African inspired.

Don't ask me how, okay? It's urban Zulu.

I wanted to ask, don't you think I'd make
a good bride? Can I get married now?

To who?

To Kudzi!

I'm just playing with you.
I had a good time with Kudzi on the train.

And I won't lie to you.
I'm growing a little bit fond of him.

-He loves you more than anything.
-Yeah.

And for me, that's all that matters.

Look, to a large extent I do trust Kudzi.

I trust that…

Khanyi's feelings are okay with Kudzi.

He's shown that he cares about her,

and she's always glowing,
she's always happy when she's around him.

No jumping into things.

-No more.
-You're growing up.

-No more, no more.
-[in Zulu] You know?

[in English] Look,
with what he just said now,

I can tell you,

Kudzi's approved. He's in the circle.

You and Kayleigh are looking really happy.

So therapy helped, right?

Therapy is helping.

-I mean, we are good. It's not overnight.
-You're still going? Yes.

What I saw on the train
with him and Kayleigh was really nice.

They're hugging, they're kissing,
they're talking to each other,

so it looks like therapy is working.

-All right, this is dope.
-It's beautiful.

[romantic music playing]

[romantic music fades]

-[Naked DJ] Guys--
-[Kayleigh] Guys, is that Hugh Hefner?

[all laughing]

[Naked DJ] They chose the biggest h*
to be the priest.

-You're the priest?
-Yo, Hugh!

-[Naked DJ] An impostor on the podium.
-I swear.

Who gets the biggest h* in the team
to officiate their wedding?

Damn!

♪ I fall in love for the first time… ♪

[Innocent] As I walk down the aisle, man,
it's all positivity in my head.

I'm-- I'm just thinking about
all the good times,

all the happy times, all the blessings,
all the laughter that we've shared.

I hope we'll just learn more things
and grow together and use, you know,

our past experience to sharpen and reshape

this beautiful thing that we have.

I'm looking forward to the next chapter.

["Complete Me" by Simi playing]

[Annie] Marrying and being in love
with Innocent

is the easiest and hardest thing
at the same time.

There are months where it's all love…

and travel and happiness,

and being to I don't know how many
countries in the last ten years together.

♪ I love you so completely… ♪

[Annie] We've stayed up all night
so many nights.

We've watched the sun, like,
literally rise from our balcony.

♪ Nobody knows me more than you
Oh baby… ♪

[Annie] After all those dark moments,

once the sun comes up again,

it's a new, whole, beautiful, new chapter.

I want to do this another ten years.

♪ If I no get you
It's like the sun without the light ♪

♪ It's like the moon without the night ♪

♪ 'Cause I need you in my life… ♪

So, ten years ago today,

Innocent Idibia, that very young man,

took her to the shores of Dubai…

so they could both say "I do."

In that ten years…

they've had to lace up their boots,

when there's been w*r.

They've had to put slippers on

because her feet were swollen.

Isabella and Olivia were on their way.

[somber music playing]

In that ten years,

they've had to put their fancy
dress shoes to celebrate many a moment.

And today, they don't take those shoes,
shove them in the cupboard and walk away.

Today, they've asked us to be a part
of this as friends and family

to help them

put those shoes back together, mend them,
as they begin a new walk.

[in Pidgin] That's right. [laughing]

[in English] Annie, I loved you
from the very first day that I saw you.

We've been together
for more than ten years.

You know, my heart beats for you now.

It's been a roller coaster journey.

You know, I know it's been ups, downs,
good times, smiley times, sunny days,

rainy days as well, and…

But, you know, you've been there
through thick and thin.

You know, you're my day one,
you understand?

And I love you, you know, for all of that,

you know, and-- and more.

You know, and I'm like,
man, one chapter has finished.

Let's, you know,
wear these boots like he said,

and, you know, step into the next chapter.

And I'm happy that you're here with me
to step into that next chapter once again.

I love you. I love you. [chuckles]

[Annie] Okay, here we are, baby…

[emotional music playing]

…choosing each other again
after all these years.

Through all the loud and quiet storms,

the raging silence,

my heart is still filled with only you.

You've shown me that
nothing can come between us

and that nothing
can make you give up on us.

No rules with our love.

There's no rules.

And I don't take that for granted.

Honestly, I pray that
the universe give us long life

'cause I want to really grow old
and I want to die lying next to you

because I don't think I can breathe
and live without you.

[chuckles softly]

[Annie] Sometimes I feel
the world is against us and our love,

but my only calm is knowing that

you got us,

and that we will fight till the end
to only choose us.

No matter what we go through,
I will still love you.

Dear Annie Idibia,

will you continue to continue with me…

-[guests laughing]
-…for the next… [laughs]

-I will for the next…
-Yes oh.

-…and the next chapters.
-[Innocent] Yes.

Come on, everyone.
Let's hear it as they seal it with a kiss.

-[guests cheering and laughing]
-[moving music playing]

[Annie] I can't find the words.

It feels brand new.

It really does.

I'm so happy.

["Complete Me" playing]

[singing in Pidgin]

[guests cheering and applauding]

[Khanyi] I'm overcome with emotion.

She looks like a fairy-tale princess.

And this is all she's ever wanted.

All eyes, attention, time, love…

on her.

[Annie chuckles emotionally]

We've chosen to use you and Innocent

as the centerpiece of our journey.

And here we are today,

dressed, sitting together,

eating at the same table

and celebrating love.

To celebrate our relationship as friends,

and this journey
'cause it's been beautiful,

we'd like to put you

as the pinnacle,

because each of us here

are trying to get relationships,
except Andile.

[all laughing]

Some of us have gotten
onto flights for hours for love.

Some of us
have gone through therapy and fought.

Some of us have met
in different age groups.

And we're still trying to find our way

to the same path that you have walked.

So tonight, if everyone
could raise their glasses with me.

To love.

[guests] To love.

To support.

[guests] To support.

To standing together.

[guests] To standing together.

And to fighting for one another.

[guests] To fighting for one another.

We are love.

[guests] We are love.

-Cheers.
-[guests] Cheers.

-[glasses clinking]
-Wow.

[Innocent] Mad oh!

Khanyi's speech was so beautiful.

Her speech had me feeling
plenty different emotions.

Her speech also just makes me realize
why she's my friend.

She was sincere with her speech.

She didn't sugarcoat anything,
and I loved that.

-Hey, you!
-How are you feeling today?

-Fabulous.
-Yes.

Fabulous.

I'm looking around the room,
and it's beautiful.

Everyone's having a great time.

But…

my mind and my heart

are wondering what Zari's doing.

You're mad that she's not here.

I just feel like it's wrong
that she's not here.

Why's it wrong that she's not here?

I just feel for her that she's not here.

We're all friends. She's part of us.

And it feels like there's a missing link,
you know?

I'm missing Zari.

Whenever we gather,

that's the person I always drift towards.

[line ringing]

[Zari] Hello?

Hey.

[Zari] Hey, what's up?

I'm just thinking about you.

[Zari laughs] That is the sweetest thing.

How have you been? You well?

It's just weird, you know.
The whole g*ng is here.

-And…
-[Zari] Yeah, I know.

I feel like something big is missing,
you know, especially for me.

[Zari] I know.

You'll have fun.

Don't worry about me. Have fun.
You're always going to see me anytime.

I might see you sooner than you think.

[Zari] Very soon.

[laughing] Very soon.

All right, ciao ciao.

["Raise Up"
by Adam King and Francesca Hole playing]

[Zari] My relationship with Annie
right now is very… off.

And at the bachelorette, when she says,
"You can't come to the renewal of my vows"

because of this and that,
I'm like, "You know what? Whatever."

-Hi. Hey, hey, hey.
-[boy] Hey.

-Yay!
-Yeah, man.

[Zari] What?

-[Diamond] Why are you here?
-What are you doing here?

-Don't ask me. What are you doing here?
-I know.

[Diamond] I was supposed to be
at the wedding.

[Diamond] I'm here
for attending the wedding.

But unfortunately, my flight delayed.

Then, I have to go straight
to see my kids.

Honestly speaking,
you should have been at the wedding.

-I couldn't make it. I came late.
-Trust me, it's a long story.

And it's going to look like
I told you not to go to the wedding.

Why?

It's-- It's a lot of drama.

You have no idea.

There's been a whole lot of things
happening with the girls.

And…

at this one time, Innocent,

because I know him from
the Channel O Awards and I spoke to him,

and Annie just got very insecure,
why I'm speaking to her man.

So, from that day, I've had
a very bad relationship with Annie.

It just got to a point where she's like,

"Zari, there's been so much
happening between me and you,

I don't want you at my wedding."

[dramatic music plays]

[Diamond] Honestly, I'm so surprised.

This is a new story to me.
Like, I don't know, maybe…

There've been a lot of things going on
that I don't understand,

but from what I'm hearing now,

it's something new.

I think she thought
I'm gonna be like, "What?"

I was like, "You know what? Whatever."
We're not really friends.

-Yeah.
-It's not like…

yeah, she's so much of a best friend,

if I don't go, I'm gonna miss out,
like, creating memories.

It's just like, whatever.
We're not close. Like, whatever.

[Diamond] I don't want to be
in between this thing.

We're all family, and I'm not expecting
to hear these type of stories, like…

It's… It's embarrassing me.

Baba T, you know me.

I'm even hated on
when I haven't even done anything.

People pick on me.
Like, I'm just always a target.

Khanyi at one point says,
"No, we were okay, Zari, until you came."

"You are stealing my friends."

"You're bribing my friends.
You're doing this."

Like, she made it look like…
Okay, how am I stealing your friends?

-[Diamond] Hmm.
-And I thought Khanyi was my friend.

[in Swahili] It came out like…
[in English] I feel like Khanyi's jealous.

Khanyi's just jealous
of how powerful and confident I am.

[Diamond] What I wish now
is to hear all sides of the story.

I really want to know what is going on.

[Naked DJ] No, I don't wanna lie.

I never knew the kind of work that you do.

-I've never seen it firsthand.
-[Swanky] Mm.

And seeing, you know,
2Baba and Annie tonight,

I have to give it to you.

Thank you, my friend.
Thank you, thank you.

Swanky and I have not been
as we were before the-- the train trip,

and I wouldn't want to lose Swanky.

I need Swanky in my corner.

So I feel that I should reach out to him.

Uh, look, I-- From my side,

I do want to apologize
for-- for the train.

Um, I mean, you've been there for me.

From day one, you've been there when--

I can always call on you
for problems I have with Kayleigh.

Right.

And it kind of hurt me that,

out of everyone on the train,

it's you and I
that actually went off at each other,

and it was not about you and me,
but about--

Madness.

Yeah, about the madness
and all that other bullshit.

So…

-You know I love you.
-I love you too.

I love you too. I'm sorry too.

-Naked.
-Yeah.

I'm also sorry because at the end
of the day, Naked is my friend,

and this is someone that I care about.
You know, I've shared moments with him,

him and his girlfriend, him and his son.

And I feel like what are friends for,
you know, if you can't fight and make up?

That's my, you know, that's my hue.

-So you ready to get married?
-No, look.

-[Swanky laughing]
-Don't even laugh. This is not even funny.

And I'm sitting here in her arms, like,

feeling safe.

I can safely say that

she's the closest friend that I have here.

You know what I think?
I think Papa should put you to bed today.

[boy] In his bed.

[Zari] In your bed.

[Diamond] You know I love my kids.

You know, once I see my kids,
like, I don't think of anything.

It's me and my kids most of the time
having a good time.

And especially I don't get time
to see them, like, frequently.

[boy] One, two, three, go.

-Come in.

I'm good. How are you?

What are you doing here?

-[dog barking]
-Why do you keep looking up?

Andile should have told me he's coming.
I'm just quite shocked.

The father of my kids is here
and it's just out of respect to say,

okay, you are turning up at my house.

I'm not tucking in bed.

Which bed can we use now
for the bedtime story?

Mine, mine, mine!

-What's that?
-That's Diamond.

Holy sh*t.

-[Diamond laughing]
-[dramatic music continues]

Come.

-What time did you come?
-I just got here.

[Diamond] Andile is my G.

And I'm excited to see him.
Like, this is a real brother.

He came to surprise me here?

I didn't expect to see you here.

You sure this is mine?

-This is mine?
-That is yours.

Are you from the wedding?

-I am.
-That's why I'm wondering, what…?

I was officiating the wedding.

-How was it?
-[Andile] It was beautiful.

I got here late.

-[Andile] Yeah, we waited for you.
-See, look at my suit.

I was supposed to be there,
but I got here late. Then I was like,

"Even if I will try my level best
to get there, but I wouldn't get there."

At the same time, I felt so bad.

So you came here?

That's where my kids are.

That doesn't sound like a question.

-Well, it's not a question.
-I was like, "Okay, what else can I do?"

-Why are you not at the wedding?
-I came to see you.

[dramatic music playing]

[Zari sighs]

What is… What is…? I…

Can I fix you something to drink?

-Yeah, please.
-Yeah, I think that's a good idea.

[Andile] Diamond's here.

The words of everybody
that's ever spoken about this

are coming back to me.

This is the moment.

I knew I had to tell him.

-You're like a brother to me.
-Of course.

Me and you have shared
some personal things.

Of course.

And I don't want you to hear this
from anyone else but me.

What do you mean?

Zari and I have been talking.

What do you mean?

There's been a little interest there.

Hey, hey, hey.

Brother…

But this is my family.
