03x04 - Who Rules the Jungle?

[bunniefuu]

[dramatic music sting]

[Nadia] Girl, you can't be pregnant
with Diamond's baby.

-[laughs] Why?
-Have you spoken to him?

Yeah, but not about that.

[laughs] Nadia, stop!

Oh, you've got me stressed.

Fantana's stressing me out
with this baby chat

because let me tell you something.

I have nothing against Diamond,

but I feel like…

No, it can't happen.

-You can't be pregnant.
-We're going to figure it out.

Me, you and…

[chuckling] Well, Swanky might k*ll me.

Swanky is going to k*ll you.
He'll tell your mom.

We're going to figure it out first
before we tell Swanky. Yeah.

[chuckles] Him and my mom, I don't know
what they're going to do to me.

I am so scared.

No, you'll be fine, babes. But wow.

[giggles] And how are you?

I'm okay. [sighs]

Agh, I'm-- I'm fine.

No, you're not.

I'm not, but like--

You always act like you're fine.
But you're not.

I'm not. It's just-- It's difficult,
like, just maneuvering life, you know?

-Yeah.
-[heartfelt music plays]

Low-key, I'm not fine,
and I know I need to go to therapy.

-Yeah.
-I don't see that happening anytime soon.

Why?

[voice breaking] I don't know.
I think I just have too much to unpack.

Nadia. [whimpers]

[Nadia] Ugh!

My person's gone.

So, it's difficult.

[heartbreaking music playing]

[camera clicks]

After losing Kiernan,

I like to tell people that I'm fine
because I don't want to worry people.

And I feel like I'm okay
to a certain extent, until I'm alone.

My friends did intervals
where I wasn't left alone

so they had their own group,

and they would decide
what day, who's coming.

And to just make sure
that I'm not by myself, you know.

-[doorbell rings]
-[chuckles] Oh…

-[gasps] Hi!
-I had to find the address.

-Khanyi! [sobs]
-[Fantana] Hey, Khanyi!

I got a call from Nadia,
and she didn't sound good.

She sounded strong,
that she's doing everything

besides sounding like she's healing.

-Oh my goodness. I'm going to cry.
-I missed you! [sobs and laughs]

Wait. [chuckles]

-Hello, my love.
-[Nadia wailing]

Oh my God.

Khanyi is hectic.
She can tell from my stories

I'm not fine, even though I'm smiling.

So seeing her, like, live
was, like, wild for me.

And I appreciated that so much.

[all laugh]

[laughs and cries] What the f*ck?

-Hello, my baby.
-[Nadia] Hi! Look at your face.

[Khanyi] So it just felt like
I needed to get onto a plane,

and go see for myself
if she's really okay.

I'm shocked. I'm happy you're here.

We both thought you were never,
ever, ever, ever coming back.

-I didn't want to tell her.
-[Nadia sniffles]

I'm so worried about her.

-[Fantana] Yeah.
-What's happening with you, baby? Huh?

-[Nadia sobs] I'm not okay.
-[Khanyi] I know. I know.

The hunch I had was right.

She is literally hanging by an eyelash,
and she isn't okay.

[continues sobbing]

Yeah?

[sniffles]

-I haven't seen you since he passed.
-[Khanyi] I know.

[sobs, sniffles]

[sobs] A lot of people don't understand
how I'm alone a lot of the time…

So, um…

Are you afraid of the silence?

-Is the silence loud?
-Yeah.

It's scary.

It's scary, like…

It's like someone
that you spent every day with.

Kiernan's mom lived with me for a month
to just make sure that I'm not by myself.

I couldn't do it. I was on suicide watch.

And then there was the day
where I actually was by myself.

I just realized I can't sit in this house.
I have to work.

Just book me with everything.

But that's part of-- of dealing with it,
is-- is the being alone.

I also went through my own things,
which is my own…

You know, I had burnout, I…

Emotionally, I-- I'm going through it,
you know?

My relationship,
everything was just coming down.

-[Fantana] Yeah.
-And I decided to be still.

Two things in life
that human beings are afraid of

is silence and rejection.

Silence is your-- your companion

because that's where you have
real conversations with yourself.

And we all avoid silence.

Face the silence.

Write about it.

Give us an album
of your sorrow and grief then,

but start doing things
to find Nadia again.

The living need to continue to live.

And my concern is, have you let him go?

I have let him go. I kind of--
And I'm trying my best but…

[Khanyi] But you need to want it.

I do want it. I want to live.

If I had to k*ll myself,
I know I wouldn't be where Kiernan is.

I wouldn't see him in the afterlife.
That's all I want.

So I have to keep living
until it's my time so I can see him again.

[sobs] Wherever that is.

[heartfelt music playing]

Yoh, I-- I didn't think
Kiernan was the dying type.

[Khanyi] Me too.

I know it's weird to say,
but who would've thunk it, you know.

I'll know that Nadia is healed
when Nadia starts cooking again.

I'll know that Nadia is healed
when she starts doing her TikToks again.

I'll know that Nadia is healed
when she can just chill at home

with her dog like she used to.

Nadia's never home,
and someone is visiting all the time,

that's why Fantana's here.

-So who are your friends now?
-[laughs]

Who you vibing with?

Oh, Fantana and Swanky are my friends.

[Khanyi] Yeah?

[Nadia] She's grown up, by the way.

-She apologized to Luis first.
-This girl?

-Yes, she ignored Zari's stabs.
-You?

Me! I'm 26 now, so…

Okay, okay! [laughs]

-She's turned a new leaf.
-Oh, wow.

She thinks she's pregnant
with Diamond's baby.

Wait, that's not how you say things.

You know… Exactly. You see, this reaction
is the reaction I'm reacting.

-Wait.
-[Khanyi] No, but wait.

-Guys, this is serious. It's not funny.
-I know.

We can't tell Swanky. Not now.

-[Nadia] We can't tell Swanky.
-He doesn't know?

-No. He'll dial Ghana.
-[Khanyi] He'll k*ll you.

-And tell his mother.
-And tell my mom. No.

-[Nadia] Find out.
-Francinah!

-Not Francinah!
-Francinah?

-I think I'm going to call Swanky.
-[Nadia] No, don't tell him. Not now.

-He doesn't know that I'm here.
-Oh, okay.

He's not going to answer. Oh, sh*t!

-No, Swanky. Please don't!
-[all laugh]

Swanky.

Don't listen to anything Khanyi will say.
It's a lie. [laughs]

I miss you.

Fantana… thinks she could be pregnant
with Diamond's child.

-[Swanky] She's crazy!
-[chuckles]

-When's the wedding? Where's the marriage?
-Answer the question.

-We need to-- We don't know yet.
-[Khanyi] Answer the question.

[Fantana] It's a possibility.

Please, I'm praying,
and I'm hoping that she's not.

Please don't call my mom.

-I'm calling your family. Don't play!
-[Fantana giggles]

I'm not.

I'm just like, "No, girl.
We're not doing that."

[laughs]

[dramatic music sting]

[buoyant music playing]

[Zari] Wow, it's so nice out here.

[sighs contentedly]

My husband brings peace,
and we are in a great space.

Can I get a kiss?

He met up with Diamond,

but I have no idea
about what they spoke about.

You and Diamond,
I need to know what happened.

What's going on?

-We talked about boundaries.
-Yeah.

I mean, you know the things
you do whenever you're together.

[tense music plays]

Wow. Okay.

You do things that make me feel like
whenever you go close to Diamond,

you no longer remember me.

You make me feel
like you've-- you've forgotten about me.

[whispers] Wow.

I know I can't take it out
that you two have kids, but then still…

[clears throat] …I can't ignore it.

[sighs]

It really makes me feel bad.

I understand how you feel,
and I understand where you're coming from.

And honestly, if it was me,

knowing myself, I don't even think
I'd have the patience. So…

Thank you so much
for giving me another chance

to fix myself, my behaviour.

-Now I'm married, I'm yours.
-I love you.

I love you too. I love you more.

In my experience,
it takes a lot for a woman to submit.

He sat me down to say,
"Baby, this is how I'm feeling."

And I'm like,
"I will listen from that angle."

Sometimes, it's the little things

that actually turn successful women,
independent women, into submissive women.

You remember the other time you met him,

he told Fantana…

Yeah.

…that you want to have… another kid

through surrogate, you and him.

Right?

-And you said--
-I didn't.

I asked him.

I was like-- I told him,
"Bro, I want you to be honest."

I asked him, and he was like,
"Bro, I can't lie to you."

He's lying.

I don't think he actually feels okay
losing me to somebody else.

Obviously, at the back of his mind,
somehow, somewhere,

he looks at you
with one eye closed like, "f*ck."

I want to believe her,

but then the fact that he keeps on
spreading the same rumors around.

I just want my wife to say it
in front of him, "You're lying."

-So, he was lying?
-He was lying.

-If you say so then I'll take your word.
-He was.

So, it's either Shakib
is going to believe me,

or he's going to believe
what Diamond is saying

because Diamond will say whatever it is,
using emotional intelligence.

He could actually be playing us.

[music ends]

[laid-back marimba music playing]

[Luis] So back home in Namibia,

every day I get to wake up
next to a game lodge, a game reserve.

So I want my fellow friends
to just experience that.

So that's why I planned this trip.

[Shakib] This place is beautiful.

[Zari] It is. I don't know
what Luis planned

because people around here have surprises.

Luis has invited us to this safari,
but I'm not a safari person.

I'm more of a city girl.

[exciting marimba music playing]

-Welcome to the villa.
-Oh sh*t. This is dope.

[Luis] I said you'd like it.

Look at this. I mean, look at this place.

[music fades]

I love some quiet time,

so it was a much-needed time as a getaway

because I'm currently
going through a lot with my separation.

[laid-back music playing]

Okay, you've outdone yourself.

[Luis] There's all the alcohol
you could drink tonight.

Well, I'm going to need to be drinking
a shitload of alcohol

since you f*cked up my relationship,
temporarily so.

I will call Kayleigh
and tell her what happened.

But I clearly remember saying,
"Yo, Naked, let's hang out."

You know? "Bring Kayleigh."
I remember saying that.

But maybe deep down inside,
he didn't want to bring Kayleigh,

to be honest.

He wanted to breathe. I don't know.

-Food over here.
-[Naked] Oh, nice.

[Luis] All you could eat.

[pleasant music playing]

-[Luis] Hey!
-[Kefilwe] Hello!

-Look at you. You made it.
-[Kefilwe laughs]

I made it.

She's always a vibe, you know.
I love her energy.

[Kefilwe] How are you, darling?

Now it's a party. It's starting.

-Okay, you guys, that's like…
-Thanks for coming.

-What a long hug.
-That's a long hug.

Yeah, are you good?

She's not 100%
because I'm hugging her and she's very…

I don't know, but something seems off.

What's wrong?

No.

Maybe let's drink a bit.

-We'll, maybe, open up a bit later.
-[all chuckle]

We're just happy…

I'm just expecting
to have cheerful conversations

so that I can just forget about everything
that's going on in my life.

[music continues playing]

The ladies are here! [laughs]

[Nadia] Hi.

-Did you invite everybody?
-[Luis] I invited everyone.

So whoever shows up, shows up.
Who doesn't, doesn't.

-Speaking of everyone…
-[Zari] That's us.

And the newlyweds.

-[Zari] Ooh!
-[Kefilwe] Newlyweds.

[curious music sting]

-[Zari chuckles]
-My bro.

Can you not hug her so tightly?
Why does Luis hug Zari so tightly?

-[Naked] You saw that?
-It's inappropriate.

Like, hold up. Like, what are you doing?

-You saw that?
-[Shakib] I saw that, bro.

-I'm like, "What the f*ck?"
-Let me just play it cool.

[Naked] We know the etiquette
when hugging a married woman.

It can't be too close.
It can't be too long.

You know, it can't look so erotic.

-See? We hug like this. Luis should relax.
-What the f*ck was that?

-[Nadia] It's too much of like…
-[cymbal music sting]

-He's also uncomfortable about it.
-Maybe I didn't see.

And it's not the first time
this happening.

-Yeah.
-[ominous music plays]

-Huh?
-[Kefilwe] Huh?

[Nadia] No, for real!
He's actually not happy.

Am I missing something? This is how
me and Luis always greet… hugging.

It is a brother and sister hug.

It's slightly tight, like, "I got you."

-Wait.
-A brother and sister hug?

Wait, wait. Are you really being serious
right now?

-I thought you guys are buddies--
-We are, but…

Wait. Are-- Are you being for real now?
Like, you're serious?

-[Shakib] We are like brothers, right?
-Yeah.

So when you do something,
I have to tell you this is not right.

No, but then, like, call me to the side
and talk to me about it.

-Don't talk about it in front of everyone.
-It happened in front of everyone.

-We can't even hug people here anymore.
-Baby, you can, but don't--

I didn't hug him.
I didn't hold him like that.

But you-- You also noticed it,
that he always does it to you like that.

That's how I always hug.

Babe, that's not how I see Luis.

I see him like a brother,
like a young brother.

-So I don't sexualize that whole thing.
-He doesn't see you like that.

Luis is the person that,

one time, he said a statement

about he wanted a surrogate with my wife.

Maybe he's having something for my wife.

So that makes me feel like,
"No, I need to talk to him."

Luis, let me talk to you for a moment.

Seeing my man pull Luis aside,

and he wants to talk to him
about this hug, you know,

puts me in a place where I feel like,
"Okay, somebody is jealous."

I'm just like, "Don't do it,"
but I'm like, "Yes, do it."

Luis, I'm waiting for you here.

I'm like, "Wow, here we go again."
You know?

What are you saying?
I can't chill with Zari?

I can't hang out with her
just because you're married?

No, you can. We always hang out. You can.

But I want you to know
that she is now married.

It's not the same thing.

I don't want you to-- to see it
in a bad way that I'm being this or that.

-I'm just protecting my relationship.
-Protecting your relationship?

-Yeah.
-What do you think would happen?

[Shakib] I don't know.

-You don't know?
-I don't know.

It means you don't trust your wife.

That means you don't trust me.

I'm pissed, and I'm disappointed,
and I'm hurt.

So now I'm like,
"I thought you knew me better than that."

[music distorts]

["Flex" by Yarin Primak playing]

I'm excited to see everyone.

I'm generally happy in a good space.

-Oh, sh*t!
-[Fantana] Swanky!

-[Nadia] Your ears must be ringing.
-Jeremiah!

-How are you, baby?
-Mwah.

How are you doing? Come here.

I just want… [inhales]

…you know, peace and love
and enjoyment. You know? [chuckles]

So yeah, I feel great.

Love it.

-[in Pidgin] How are you?
-How are you?

[in English] All I could hear is,
"My husband."

-Swanky.
-[cellphone pings]

[Swanky] What was happening?

[in Pidgin] How are you?

-[in English] How are you doing?
-Thanks for coming.

What's up? What's up?
What's up? [chuckles]

-Welcome home. How are you?
-[Shakib] I'm alright.

-Why are you taller than us?
-[Swanky] Eish, that question.

Physically, I'm at the braai,

but emotionally and mentally,
I wasn't there.

-Guys, can we move over there by the fire.
-Fantastic.

I'm re-reading the messages that I got.

[in Pidgin] What's going on?

[in Xhosa] I'm going through it.

[in English] Kefi has mentioned to me
that she's not okay.

She's not feeling good.

It's okay, okay?

Worse though, you spill.

I do have an idea,

um, because Kefi has already shared
some things with me

about, um, her marriage
and the whole situation.

[poignant music sting]

What's wrong, Kefi?

[in Xhosa and English] Wow, it's a lot.
I'm going through it.

[in English] What happened?

["I Won't Cry" by Thomas Cook playing]

[Nadia] Kefi, are you crying?

[Zari] Swanky, get her, please.

-[sobs quietly]
-[Swanky] Kefilwe, stop.

-[Fantana] What's wrong?
-[Swanky] Kefilwe, stop.

-Kefi, we know it's tough. It's okay.
-[sobs]

No, Kefi, what's wrong?

It's okay. It's okay.

I don't know,
sometimes I just feel like in life,

it's a repetition of the same things,
like, all the time, all the time.

When I have to separate with someone,
there just has to be drama, like…

Remember, she's going through a divorce.

I think that's why
she's feeling like that.

I mean, when you separate
and you're traditionally married,

there are obviously things
that we have to go through.

But now I see them happening again,
and I'm like, "Oh, my goodness,

here we go again."

I am not okay.

My husband paid lobola for me.

Unfortunately, things didn't work out
the way we had hoped.

And it's quite saddening and a bit…

stressing at the moment.

I think it's his insecurities coming out,

but then now he's, like,
trying to be controlling.

He wants to control me, to know my moves,
but we're not together.

Is he a narcissist?

He's showing, like,
very narcissistic vibes.

-And that's dangerous.
-Very dangerous.

It gets to a point, "I can't have you,
nobody can have you."

Exactly.

It made me question also
the kind of pattern I'm following,

and maybe this is a time
to really reflect on myself.

-Don't return the cows.
-Here we go again.

No, not the cows, Kefi.

[laughing]

-[all laugh]
-[lighthearted music playing]

-No!
-[Kefilwe] You know what they say?

Let's cry with our cows.

-[all laughing]
-[Zari] We have something to fall back on.

[Swanky] With South African lobola,
I think you have to bring cows

as a representation
of part of the gifts for the bride price.

Do you know this joke,
"I never expededit it?" [laughs]

-[Swanky] You never expededit.
-From Zari.

And I just had to laugh
because Zari as Zari,

she just had to mention the cows.

Oh, what a good laugh after…

I think I needed it.

[adventurous music playing]

It's a new day.
I want everybody to go on a game drive

because I'm sure these city kids
have never been in the outdoors

to see animals up close and personal.

So last night I was vulnerable,
and now that I've let everything out,

I'm quite excited about today.

[Luis] Look, Nadia!

[in Afrikaans and English]
The springboks. Here come the Springboks.

-[in English] What is that?
-The springboks.

-[Swanky] Oh my God, it's so beautiful.
-[Zari] So nice!

-Wow.
-[Zari] Wow. Look at that.

Oh, it's a giraffe.

-[Naked] Yeah.
-How majestic.

[Swanky] That's beautiful.

[Zari] Look at the head sticking out.

Hey, Kefi.

So you got so emotional last night.
You know, I felt bad.

I wanted to understand your story,
where you're coming from

because, my first three sons, we were…

I was with the father for 11,12 years.

My relationship was so hard to leave
because there was three sons involved.

When we went our separate ways,
it was hard.

He didn't want me to have anyone else.
He'd stalk me--

-So that's what's happening to me now.
-I go to restaurants, he'd send people.

He would be hiding under Ubers.

-Those are narcissists.
-[Zari] Yeah.

Hearing Zari's story made me realize

not to judge a book by its cover.

And for me that was with three kids,

and I'm trying to understand
where you're coming from to say

you're going through this tough time
with a person

that probably haven't dated
for five years.

[tense music sting]

No, we've never dated for five years.

Yeah, but what's your story?
Like, what happened?

[suspenseful music playing]

There's Zari,
looking for an "Oprah" opportunity

to find something to talk about
out of my situation.

I mean, it's my marriage.
It's not our marriage, you know?

We didn't share a partner.

We met actually last year at a club.

So soon? Yeah.

-[Swanky] Wow.
-Right?

And he told me he has a wife.

He's currently looking for a second wife.

Before we even continue,
why would you settle for second position?

You're beautiful, successful, everything.

Why would you want to be number two
to anyone?

Is it the lifestyle on Instagram

that attracts this guy to think,
"Oh, she's this."

I just wanted to try something different,

and knowing how my past experiences were
with my marriages and relationships…

-"Let me try this."
-"Let me try this, maybe it could work."

[Zari] I want to ask something.
Something on the socials.

Apparently,
because you're a brand influencer,

Kefi was doing a photoshoot with the cows.

-Oh my goodness.
-[Zari] You were endorsing whatever.

I'm telling you.

So, uh, you were doing, um, a campaign.

You got yourself a ring
to make it look like you're married.

You wanted, obviously, to lift your name

because at some point comments were like,

"Sometimes, you even forget
to wear your ring."

[Kefilwe] It's my marriage.

I don't feel like I need to explain
to the masses my reality.

Is he wealthy? Like, you can sit home
and make money.

[sputtering] He does have money.

But you still want to work.

[Kefilwe] I still want to work.
It makes me happy.

My work makes me happy.

For a moment, I felt like,
"Oh my goodness!"

"Zari… She's a nice person."

But, as the saying goes,

-the leopard never changes its spots.
-[leopard growls]

[adventurous music plays]

[elephant trumpets]

[Luis] There's an elephant.
One of the big five.

[Nadia] I love elephants.
They're my favourite.

[Swanky] That is massive.
That's beautiful.

-[elephant bellows]
-[Swanky] Okay.

[grumbling]

[Kefilwe] Oh, guys.

[Luis] Oh, wow.

-Is he's going to push the car?
-[Nadia] Guys…

[Shakib in Luganda] Oh, no.

-[gasps]
-[Luis in English] Yes, boy!

[Shakib] So you see,
now that one is angry.

When it raises the ears like that,
it means it's really mad.

-[Luis] You guys are agitating him.
-[Fantana] He's looking at us, Nadia.

Look at that.

Let's get out of here.

No, you just-- When you move,
it'll notice that you're here.

His fifth leg. [chuckles]

-Nadia…
-Okay.

Shove his what? [laughs]

[Shakib] See, it's leaving.

[Luis] It's just hormones.
He's a teenager.

[Naked] Okay, why is this one's p*nis out?

-Oh, God.
-[gasps]

-That is a huge p*nis, guys.
-[Swanky] Check that.

-Is that a p*nis though?
-[Kefilwe exclaims, gasps]

-[laughing]
-[Kefilwe] Oh my goodness! I've never.

-[Swanky] You can't laugh loud.
-[Zari] His ears!

[Nadia] I think that's a sign
to get the hell out of Dodge.

Like, why are we sitting here
while this thing is flicking its ears?

It's growling, it sounds like a lion.

-[bellows]
-[Nadia] Like, what? And its d*ck is out.

[amusing music sting]

[Swanky] Nadia, Khanyi and Fantana
called me on the phone.

They're like, "Oh, Fantana is pregnant."

No.

[scoffs]

I just laughed it off
because I-- I-- [chuckles]

-I don't want to believe that--
-[Zari] What if she is pregnant?

-What will you do about it?
-It's not possible.

[gasps] I'm stressed by that,
you know, because…

You know, we're from West Africa,
so things are done differently.

How are you pregnant?

Why? What's the reason?

I don't know if I'm pregnant,
but we're going to find out.

Because I still haven't had my, you know…

-Wait, wait, wait…
-She has symptoms.

What?

[Fantana] I first have to figure out
if I am pregnant or not.

But if I am,
he's not going to be mad because--

Why are you saying it so casually?
Like you're okay with it.

-Do you want to have his baby?
-[Fantana] No, guys…

But I can--
Like, I-- I can have a baby, I'm 26!

-Wow.
-[dramatic music sting]

This is a disaster.

It's like you're watching a car crash
right in front of your eyes.

You're like,
"Wow. This is really happening."

When you talk about having a baby
with someone,

it means you're willing
to be with that person.

And when I was with Diamond,
sitting, talking,

I told him, "So I see you're with Fantana,
and another woman back home."

And I was like, "Do you really lo--"
I asked him if-- if he wanted you.

-[Fantana] Mm-hmm.
-And his reply was a bit sad.

He said, "No, bro, you know,
we-- we're just… It's just fun."

-Yeah.
-We're not taking it anywhere serious.

[Fantana] Mm-hmm.

To me, seeing Fantana falling
for the same trap as other females,

that end up fighting on-- on the internet,

it makes me feel like it would be, really,
a very big mistake for her.

It's so confusing because…

And then when he's with me,
he's like, "Oh, I love you, blah, blah."

So, it's kind of like,
I don't really know, you know?

I kind of feel a little uncomfortable

because, obviously, this is my first time
having a deep conversation with Shakib,

and it's kind of annoying to hear, like,
this is something that Diamond would say.

He's going to start making you look like
you're desperate for his attention.

You need to nip it in the bud
because to you he's saying the world.

But to everyone else,
he's acting like a cool rapper.

Like a cool musician.

Yeah, and I feel like
I don't really like that.

I do believe what Shakib is saying

because I feel like
he doesn't have any reason

to, like, come up to me and lie.

But on the other hand,

I also need to give Diamond
the chance to explain himself.

Just in case he comes to you,
he sweet-talks you again…

Yeah.

…have it in mind, "We're having fun."

-I shouldn't fall and be weak.
-Yeah, you can fall, but not like…

I've been saying that for weeks.
Shakib says it, now you listen.

I've been saying this for weeks.
Me, I don't know what language to use.

I hate it so much.

Fantana entertains Diamond

because she's not seeing
how he's lying and manipulating her.

She's got like those blinder things
they put on horses.

[all laugh]

I think Luis did get it right
because we did have a good time.

Yes, there will always be drama
when it comes to us.

There will always be issues,
but I can appreciate that.

[Luis chuckling]

[music fades]

[dramatic hip hop music playing]

Just arrived in Joburg,
and Nadia called and asked to meet.

My friendship with Diamond is tricky
because Fantana could be pregnant,

and Diamond keeps playing games with her.

[instructor] Again.

[chuckles] Okay, give me a second.

-Thank you.
-How are you doing?

-Hi.
-I'm fine. How have you been?

-You in the country?
-What's that for?

What do you mean? It's for fitness.

Okay. Are you preparing for something?

I'm preparing to box you.

-Why?
-How's it going with you and Fantana?

Just let us control the ball.

Let us do what we do. You weren't there
when we started this sh*t.

Why are you trying to act like a referee?

You have a girlfriend in Tanzania.
Why are you playing with my sister?

-I'm not playing with anybody.
-You have a girlfriend in Tanzania?

I don't have a girlfriend anywhere.

I can have, like, three girlfriends,
and I can treat them the same.

That's why it's difficult for me
to call it, like, a relationship.

I just want to call it,
like, "having fun."

-Situationships?
-Situationships.

So do you have a situationship
with someone in Tanzania?

I'd be a liar to say no.

-Is Fantana aware of this?
-She knows that.

-She-- I doubt it! She doesn't know it.
-She does.

Did you tell her blatantly, "I am dealing
with more than one woman at a time."

"You are one of them,
and I've got three more."

"One of them is breaking plates
in my house now."

Not telling her. Me and Fantana,
we don't have a serious relationship.

Really?

Yeah, we have, uh… beautiful moments
that we share together sometimes.

Fantana is a baddie. City girl, fully.

So I feel like she's something
that he wants to conquer.

I don't think he loves Fantana,
but I also feel like he's a narcissist.

Do you like Fantana?

Uh, maybe that's the reason
we're even having this situationship.

Like, you know, I love pretty ladies.

Me and Fantana,
we had this memorandum of understanding

that we can smash
but she can be doing her stuff.

I can be doing my stuff as well.

There's no strings attached.

So I'm not misleading Fantana.

She's gorgeous, but I'm saying,

do you see it
blossoming into something else?

What else?

-A committed relationship.
-I don't want any commitment!

Okay, got it. [laughs]

-That's something I can't do.
-Okay, got it. I got it.

I hate it so much
that Fantana entertains Diamond

because she's not seeing
how he's lying and manipulating her.

-I need you to communicate that with her.
-All I can promise…

You're not clear.

-She understands.
-I hope so.

The only thing that I can promise…

Good d*ck.

You're annoying. I hate you. [laughs]

[music ends]

[dramatic music playing]

Everyone in the group knows
that Swanky is always full of surprises.

It's either I'm giving gifts,
or I'm bringing new friends.

Today, I'm bringing in
my friend from Nigeria.

["Game Changer" by Dike playing]

An actress, producer, big-time boss lady.

I mean, she's literally an icon.

-Hello!
-Hey, Swanky.

-The brown sugar queen is live in Joburg.
-Welcome to South Africa.

[both] Mwah! Mwah!

Listen, all of my friends are
just big deals.

Welcome, baby.
Let's show this city how we roll.

-Look, I can't wait.
-Let's move this continent, baby.

-[Ini] Listen, I'm ready to party!
-[Swanky] Welcome!

My name is Ini Edo.

[dramatic hip hop music playing]

I'm a Nigerian filmmaker. I'm an actress.

I like to think of myself
as a serial entrepreneur.

I've co-produced a couple of movies.

I've also executive produced my own films.

I've come here
with all my Nigerian nuances,

with all my African-ness,
with all my brown sugarness.

But then I'm also not really somebody
who has the energy to take bullshit.

I face confrontations head-on.

If it's beneath me, I might overlook it
because I don't play with dogs.

You need to deserve my reaction.

And you cannot intimidate me.

Hell no.

["Superstar" by Lalinea & BAER plays]

So, now that I'm all settled,
I need to meet up with my boy, Swanky.

So we're gonna grab drinks, bites,
and of course talk.

Ah, wow! Look at your outfit.

[in Yoruba] Jesus.

-[in English] Damn.
-You look like a Greek god!

Baby, you look like a Greek goddess.

[chuckles] Swanky is keeping it
hot, hot, hot, hot, hot, hot.

I love it. I'm loving it.

I've landed.

-I'm so happy you're here, friend.
-Me too.

-I'm so happy. You look very beautiful.
-Thank you.

Yeah, and I can't wait
for you to meet all of my friends.

Some of them are crazy,
some of them are fun.

-So what's up with-- Where's Annie?
-Um…

[tense music plays]

I've not seen Annie in a minute.

Um, I don't know where she is.
I don't care much also.

Ah, Swanky.

[in Pidgin] Swanky, tell me the truth.
What's going on?

What happened? Tell me the truth.

Because Annie is my girl.

[in English] We come
from the same village,

so I would say she's like my sister
as opposed to being my friend.

-So Kayleigh is Naked DJ's girlfriend.
-Mm-hmm.

Kayleigh had an event,
and upon arrival at the event,

Fantana, my girl, pulls me to the side,
and she's like,

"Swanky, I had lunch with Annie,

and she had so much negative things
to say about you."

Like, what-- what went wrong?

At Zari's wedding she had so many
negative things to say at the wedding.

So they were going back and forth.
[imitates spat]

Now Annie says, "Oh, Swanky,
you're going to sit down,

watch Zari drag me."

"You're not going to back me up."

[dramatic music sting]

I lost my mind.

[chuckles]

Because I just felt like, "How dare you?"

"Make it make sense to me how you want me
to defend you for your bad behavior."

"But you're still trying
to f*ck up my name amongst my friends."

This is obviously something big,

but I want to believe that whatever it is,

we should be able to resolve it
as a family, right?

Mind you, Diamond is having a party.
Um, yeah, you're definitely coming. Yeah.

-We're starting with a party?
-Yeah, we're starting with a party.

So you can meet everyone at once,
and it's easier, and just--

And then you can just choose and say,

"Okay, this one is cool."
And then you can--

-You know me now. Me, I'm a cool girl.
-No, you'll have fun.

I don't know what to expect, really,
but I'm chilled.

But I know there are some people
who are very badly behaved,

who don't know how to respect boundaries.

I'm not here for that.
Nobody can stain my white.

So, but I can put you in your place
in a queenly way.

[music fades]

[mellow song playing]

[Fantana] I really don't know how serious
me and Diamond are.

I keep hearing
different stories from everybody

on what he says about us
when I'm not around.

For me, honestly, like,
it's not by force for us to be serious.

But I also don't want to have
a baby with someone

who makes me look stupid
when I'm not around.

-Fantana. How are you?
-[Fantana] Hi.

Good, how are you?

-Good. This is nice.
-Yeah? You look good.

You know, I love--
I love being a gentleman sometimes.

There's flowers, champagne.

I've been missing you.

[chuckles]

You? [scoffs]

No matter where ever,
I love treating ladies so nice.

[giggles]

It's very special. They're everything.

And I'm trying
to make someone feel so special.

I don't think I should drink this,
for now. [chuckles]

I haven't been drinking alcohol
for a while now,

until I know
that I'm not pregnant, or I am.

I haven't spoken to Diamond about it

because I feel this was something
I wanted to say to his face.

Why you don't want to drink?

Because I don't feel
like drinking alcohol.

Why?

My period hasn't come.

[tense music sting]

Yeah. [sighs]

I-- I love what I'm hearing.

-Hmm? [chuckles]
-I love what I'm hearing.

What does that mean?

That you have a mini me.

To me, it sounds
like a new me is coming, you know.

There's a mini Platnumz in that tummy.

You know, that's the most beautiful thing.

-Mm.
-You know, I was supposed to--

I want to throw a party,
so when I do my party,

maybe we can announce the baby shower.

You wanna-- [laughs]

[chuckling] Diamond, wait.
You want to do what?

I just want everybody to know that.

-You want to announce it in front of all--
-Yeah, baby shower, something.

Why can't I be proud of that?

A man that wouldn't be proud of that

would be stupid.

And maybe would be a person
who's not ready for that.

But I'm f*cking ready for that.

[Fantana] Diamond is saying
all these sweet things to me.

But I'm just pretending to be dumb
because, at the end of the day,

if I am pregnant,
I need Diamond in my life.

So I'm just pretending to be delusional.

Oh, better. Thank you.

Because I want to figure out
if I'm pregnant or not,

and then I'll know what to do from there.

-Mm?
-[both chuckle]

Well, I'm a bit calm now, so let's…

[music ends]

Cheers.

-Look at me into my eyes.
-I did, Diamond. [chuckles]

-No.
-Okay.

-Cheers.
-I want to see those beautiful eyes.

I've really not been acting
like the Fantana that I know. [chuckles]

I have anxiety. [giggles]

Why?

-Because it's a lot.
-[laughing]

[music ends]

["High" by TMS songs & Braynezee playing]

It's been a while
since I had all of my friends together.

So, you know, like, we're famous,
we're young, African with platinums.

When I'm here,
I want to have fun as much as I can.

-Ah!
-[Kayleigh and Diamond chuckling]

-Naked. How's it going?
-What's good?

[dramatic music plays]

[Nadia] Right now,
I feel like the gloves are off.

Diamond made it very clear

that he feels that Fantana is someone
to have fun with, not long-term.

I feel like he constantly is lying to her,
and it's really scaring me

because he has power,
and he can manipulate you.

And that's the dangerous thing,
especially if there's a baby involved.

Oh, there we go.

-Wow.
-Nadia.

I've kind of lost my respect for Diamond.

-Do you like it? How are you?
-Hi. Good and you?

You look amazing.

Thank you. Oh, whoo!

[metal sting]

[petulantly] What?

-Why are you looking at him like that?
-[Nadia] Agh, he's annoying me.

-[Naked] What did he do now?
-He's done a lot for--

-Me?
-You!

Nadia looks like she's not happy with me,
and it just don't make sense to me

because who is she to be mad at me?

[sultry music playing]

I'm quite excited about today.

Especially that it will be my first time
meeting Diamond.

I've heard a lot about this guy,

and I'm curious to find out
what is he all about.

-Hello. How are you?
-Hi, everybody.

-Diamond.
-[Diamond] Hello. Platnumz.

-Have you guys never met?
-No. This is the first time we meet.

-How are you?
-I'm very good.

-[Kefilwe] Hello. Hi there, friend.
-How have you been? You look beautiful.

-[Kefilwe] Mwah.
-[Nadia] Sit over there.

[Kefilwe] Let me sit there.

-Yeah.
-[Kefilwe] Okay.

-You look gorgeous.
-I'm good, thanks, Diamond.

I heard about you.

Beautiful is how I've been hearing
about you.

Oh, really?

[sighs]

Kefilwe, I've been hearing about her,
and she's a ten.

But I don't want to give her that ten.
I'll give her a seven for now.

-But I'd love to get to know her.
-[record scratches]

-[amusing music sting]
-[doorbell rings]

What?

Yeah, yeah, you are my beautiful.

-Yo.
-[Kayleigh] Hey.

Hey.

What-- What's going on?

You're on a roll, babes.
But he definitely has a girlfriend.

It will be a crazy night.

[amusing music sting]

["Cliche" by Adam Amezaga
and Liam Kevany playing]

I still haven't done this pregnancy test

because I'm not even sure
I want to have this baby with Diamond.

But on the other hand,
what if I am pregnant?

I have to do this pregnancy test
so I can know what's going on for sure.

-Fantana.
-[Fantana] Yo. Hey.

You look amazing.

-[Fantana] Thank you.
-I love it.

[suave hip hop song playing]

-Hey.
-[Nadia ululating]

[Diamond] Shakibs!

The newlyweds.

[Diamond] Mama T.

-[in Swahili] How are you?
-Good.

[in English] Diamond has invited Shakib
to this event today.

So, it looks like the boys are bonding.

Which works in good favor for me.

Finally, we get to put all of that aside.

[dramatic music playing]

[Swanky] Tonight, I really hope my friends
are on their best behavior

because I'm introducing a special guest,

the queen herself.

[Ini] I am so looking forward
to meeting Swanky and his friends.

I'm all about meeting people,
making new friends.

I don't have a lot of expectations
from people.

I have zero tolerance for bullshit.

[chuckles]

-They're cool!
-Surprise, guys!

-This is my friend, Ini Edo.
-Hi.

-Hi, everybody.
-Television goddess.

A beautiful, chocolate melanated queen
walking in in all her silver glory,

so I'm like, "Wow."

-[Ini] You look so nice. How are you?
-Hi, how are you?

-Hi, darling. You look stunning.
-You too.

She is great.
She's been in the movie industry.

We all know who Ini Edo is.

-I'm like, "Wait a second."
-[music stops]

"What are you doing here?"

Did you get rid of Annie
to introduce someone new?

[laughs] Zari, please stop.

Where's Annie?

[intriguing music playing]

I know there's some people
who are very poorly brought up,

who don't know how to respect boundaries.

And to this kind of people,
I think I know just how to treat them.

I will maintain my throne,

and I'll look at everybody and treat them
the way they want to be treated.

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to my party.

And since it's been a while
that I haven't been around,

it felt like it would be wise for me
to have all my friends here,

and we celebrate the bonds that we have
for more money, success…

That's a good one.

Long life, babies.

Babies?

You--

What?

The only one that has family here is you.

You're the only one that has kids here,
it's you and Zari.

You're the only family.

Okay, let's toast for the happiness.

-Toast.
-Okay, happiness is fine.

-[Luis] Here's to happiness.
-The kid thing is very confusing.

Diamond just needs to sit down.
Like, I don't know, it's a lot.

Ini, do you have any kids?

-I do have a kid.
-A boy or girl?

-[Ini] A girl.
-Okay.

-Are you married?
-I'm not married.

-Are you together with the dad?
-Uh, no, I'm not.

Oh, really? Is he still alive?

Well, I don't know. He's--

Girl, is he dead or not?

-He's not dead.
-It's a yes or no question.

-So he's not dead.
-[Nadia] Oh, okay.

He doesn't have anything to do with us.
We're just two people.

-[Nadia] I see.
-Just me and my child.

My journey is one that I have not really
been wanting to talk about

because, um, it's personal.

-I'm raising her alone.
-[Nadia] Oh, really?

-I went through surrogacy.
-[Nadia] Oh.

You went through what?

-That's beautiful.
-Surrogacy.

Wow.

For the first time in a long time,
somebody else is bringing up surrogacy

because the group says
I always talk about surrogacy.

Oh! Of course Luis is lighting up
like a robot. Ping! [laughs]

I personally feel Luis can smell it
because how on the nail is this?

There was no man in my life,
but I wanted a child.

There are different ways to go about that.

-I knew it.
-Okay. [chuckles]

-Where are we going with this?
-[Luis] I'm just appreciating Ini.

Here's someone
who's been through the process,

who might potentially get it.

So, of course,
what do you expect me to do?

I mean, come on.

-Is that what you're trying to do?
-[Luis] Yeah.

I did a bit of research
to find out what the legal processes are.

So they were advising rather get an agency
and do it through an agency, and so forth.

Why are you not dating?

I am.

So your girl doesn't--
Because, I mean, I don't know.

I'm just saying, because I don't think
surrogacy is something

people wake up
and say that's what they want to do.

[wistful music playing]

I never thought I'd be someone
who had fertility issues.

But I've had issues
carrying pregnancies long-term.

When it looked like
it was not going to happen

the way I wanted it to happen,

and I wasn't getting younger, I said…

[inhales sharply]

"What are the options?
What's available to me?"

And then… this option came up,
and so I took it.

And I'm very happy with my decision, so…

No, that's amazing. I think it's
a very grown-up, mature thing to do.

[Shakib] Diamond.

Remember what we talked about,
about surrogacy?

-Yeah.
-Can the two of us talk about it?

[suspenseful music playing]

Yeah, let's go.

I want to put all these messages,
surrogacy stories, to an end.

[Diamond] I kind of have an idea
of what this is about.

I'll try my level best
to not disrespect him.

-What are they going to talk about?
-I-- Mm-mm.

f*ck.

Oh, no.

Not today, not here, not with Diamond.

-We had a sensitive topic the other time.
-I remember.

I talked about it with her,
and she was like, "Diamond is lying."

I want to know.

-I want her to be honest with me.
-Yes.

-Should I call her?
-I'm more than willing.

-For real?
-If you're fine, I'm more than ready.

It's going to be the first time

me and Mama T have
this type of conversation.

But if this is what he wants,
what would I do?

I'm going to have to be
the honest person in the world.

[Zari] I don't know
why I'm being dragged into this now,

but… let's sort it out.

Let's get to it. What is it?

So remember the other time
you told me he wanted to meet me?

Yeah.

Something was really on my heart
that I wanted to say out.

And I asked him what he said

that he wanted to have
another baby with you.

Wait a minute, did you know
that we were together by that time?

I knew that. I knew that.

You're seriously bringing up
that conversation?

Me and him had a conversation
when he was throwing an event last year.

And we were just
going into conversations about kids,

and he asked me…

[In Swahili] "You have your guy."
[in English] "Do you intend to have kids?"

And that's when the whole thing
of surrogacy and all that…

It wasn't like,
"I want to have a baby with you."

Do I make myself clear?

-Baby, you're not making this clear.
-I'm making it very clear.

[Swanky] In this group,
something is going to go on.

Wow. It's looking like a family bus--
family meeting out there. [chuckles]

Drama is going to unfold.
It's just what it is.

You only want to hear what he told you
because you want that to be your truth.

I never told Diamond
I wanted to have a child with him.

It was a conversation
that he actually twisted.

Can I say something?

-So…
-First, Mama T--

[in Swahili] You asked me, "Do you intend
to have kids with your man?"

[in English] That's what you asked,

and the conversation came in
about the surrogacy.

Can I ask you--

[in Swahili] I'm surprised
it would appear…

[in English] …from that
I want to have a baby with you.

[Diamond] Can I say something?

I've never done this type of thing
to Mama T,

but I don't want to look
like I'm a wrong person.

I want to be honest.

The other time
when I had a conversation with Shakib,

I told Shakib that, first of all,
whatever I said I did not make up.

-I'm the one who made up things?
-Mama T, let me say--

You always gaslight situations,
but you didn't make this up.

[Diamond] Can I say this? Listen.

When I was talking to Shakib,
I told him, "Yes, Mama T told me that."

I told Shakib,
"I don't want you to feel bad."

-"Maybe then things weren't that serious."
-She did.

And she even told me that.

She said, "Because I don't want my child
to have different fathers now."

Let's be adults, okay? Let's be--

-Mama T, can I say something?
-[Zari] Let's be adults here.

You're saying "Mama T" a lot more
than you're giving answers.

I never… I'm-- I'm going to finalize this
for both of you.

-[Diamond] That's why we're here--
-I'll finalize this.

Baby, I've got what I wanted.

You said,
"I wanted to have a child with you."

I'm saying I never said
I wanted to have a child with you.

Okay? Now it's your word against my word.

You think Diamond is really your friend?
He has your best interest?

He's going to say things
that trigger you a bit.

As my husband, if you don't trust me,
take whatever it is.

Diamond, if you're playing your games,
I already know.

Shakib needs to be smart.

I'm-- I'm taking it like,
maybe it was a miscommunication.

-Yes. Maybe it was a miscommunication.
-Yeah. Yeah.

Everything I said was the truth.

I've got proof. I've got messages.

Tell your wife to take you
through the message that I sent her,

and you'll see the proof.

[music ends]

-First speech.
-I can't take over.

Guys, please don't make--
Don't make me break the glass.

I want you guys
to have positive vibe, that's all.

Understand that I love you all.

I want you to understand
that I appreciate your presence here.

Let's drink. Let's make more money.
Let's have more businesses.

-Cheers to that.
-Cheers to that.

So do you love us all equally
or some are loved more than others?

[Luis] All animals are equal
but some more than others.

Do not expect the love can be equal.
That's a lie.

[chuckles]

You're my friend,
you go extra mile, so I love you more.

[all laugh]

-[laughs]
-So, Diamond, how's your girlfriend?

[tense music sting]

-[Kefilwe] Wow.
-Hey?

-[Diamond] The girlfriend is here.
-No.

[Kefilwe] This one I know.

Fantana, are you guys dating?

-What are you doing?
-[Nadia] I'm asking a genuine question.

Says different on social media.

-Nadia, there's nothing on social media.
-There's a lot on social media.

I do a lot of stuff on social media too.

I've never seen you kissing another man.

[Kefilwe] Oh, wow.

Nadia, honestly,
the situation is really sensitive.

And I feel like,
right now is not the time, you know.

-You're making him uncomfortable.
-I am? Am I making you uncomfortable?

I don't know where
Nadia gets those guts to ask me.

If I kiss any person, if I do whatever,
it's none of, uh, anybody's business.

Who the f*ck is she to ask me that?

I don't know
the kissing thing, Nadia, seriously.

No, but he kisses women
on his music videos.

-You just said he said--
-But I kiss guys in videos too.

Yeah, but you're saying
he said it was a music video, right?

Whatever it was--

-Was it a video?
-Was it a video? What was it?

Mm? She's asking you.

I need to understand what is going on
because I can feel my anger rising.

Was it a video?

[Fantana] I didn't see it,
so I don't know--

I'm telling you, friend.
I'm your friend. I saw it.

[whispers] It was a video.

[whispers] Oh, okay.

-[Zari] That's it right there.
-I've answered her.

So you got silenced by Diamond's whisper,
and you just stop talking to me?

-[Diamond] She asked me.
-Are you kidding?

And I answered her.

He just answered me,
and I'm-- I'm like, "Okay, cool."

Nadia now trying to act

like she is a police
in between my issue with Fantana.

It's getting out of my nerves,
and I don't like it.

What is your direct question?

The girl you kissed on your Insta stories,
were you sh**ting a music video?

Or the girl that you are with on blogs…

It's his artist though!

-Is she not your artist?
-Yeah.

At this point, I don't even care

if that's Diamond's wife,
his girlfriend, his fiancée.

What I care about, I may be pregnant,
and if I am pregnant, my baby needs a dad.

I don't want Diamond to feel
like I did not have his back.

Blogs talk about me. Like…

[Swanky] Sorry, Fantana, hold on.

If it's a music video,
and he posts a snippet of it,

it's okay, blogs will pick it up.

Artists usually do that
just to stir up things for the video.

-Thank you.
-[Swanky] Before it is out.

Are you kidding, Swanky?

I'm talking about there's been rumors
about Diamond dating this specific artist.

-But there's rumors.
-What did you call them?

-Rumors, right?
-[Swanky] Rumors on the blogs.

There's actual receipts, guys.

-[Swanky] Diamond isn't confirming it.
-I'm Platnumz.

-[Nadia] What's it mean?
-Blogs talking about me is normal.

So what does-- [sighs]

You can't be this dense.
I'm sorry, there's no way.

It's not a music video!
That is his girlfriend!

No way that these people
are doing this right now.

But, Fantana, Fantana,
you owe nobody an explanation.

-You don't owe anyone any explanation.
-Exactly.

I feel sorry for Fantana.

I wish I could step in
to do something for her,

but I feel powerless and helpless.

Because the homie is playing her,
you know?

No, I can't. I'm sorry.

-Leave them alone.
-[Nadia] I won't leave them alone.

I'm trying to protect my friend.

I don't know what soup
they're cooking together.

I think it's a mess. I don't want to be
a part of it. I'm not interested.

-You can be mad at me.
-Can I speak with you?

[Nadia] I'm not going to.

No, Swanky. Wait.

I need answers,
then you can have your sidesteps.

-I'll bring him back.
-I need to leave. I want to go!

Let him answer the question.

-Don't worry, I'm here.
-[Nadia] Answer the question!

-I'll bring him back.
-No, Swanky. Sidestepping?

I can't be the only rational one
in the group.

I can't be the only one that can see
the facts for what they are.

-Okay, me, I'm going.
-[Kayleigh] She wants to know the answer.

-[Nadia] Sorry, I'm out. Goodbye.
-[Fantana] Nadia!

[Nadia] You're going to have
a side conversation.

All of us are involved, and, Swanky,

I was more involved in this than you
because you didn't even know.

You want to have a three-way conversation,
mediate when you haven't been actually--

What conversation do I want?

You're having it with both of them
so I'm just what?

-Nadia, calm down.
-No, guys, come on.

-Nadia, relax.
-No, no, I'm out.

Nadia, wait. Nadia, chill.

After this, I can't be friends with you
because you're dumb.

I can't be friends with dumb people!
