03x06 - Shots Fired

[bunniefuu]

[dramatic music playing]

So, what's this?

-Diamond?
-Yes?

-[Kefilwe] You called me…
-Yeah, yeah, yeah.

And you told me
that you want to get to know me.

[Diamond] Yeah.

-And have, like, a family time.
-[Diamond] Oh, yeah.

And I thought,
since we're having a family time,

it would be good to invite Fantana.

I couldn't just wait for him to tell me
exactly what he told me, to Fantana.

And how interesting,

just when you walked in
we're actually speaking about you.

Really? What did I do?

[Kefilwe] I asked him
about the relationship.

Because from what I know,
you and Fantana are dating.

So do you mind telling Fantana
the same thing that you told me right now?

[Diamond] I don't like
what Kefilwe is trying to do here.

That's very childish and stupid thing
I've ever saw in my life.

Let me-- Let me answer that.

So she asked me about who are we.

I was like, "Okay,
me and Fantana, we're smashing."

[Fantana] Diamond…

-No, let me finish.
-[Fantana] Let me tell you.

-You can smash. Diamond, don't do that.
-[Diamond] Can I finish please?

When people ask, I don't be like,
"Diamond is one of my little boy toys."

Boy toys, exactly!

I don't say, "Diamond is my trick,
Diamond is one--"

-Oh, you didn't agree to all this?
-I don't talk in that manner.

-Alright.
-Even if I smash, that's not how you talk.

Zari's husband said that,

Nadia said you said that,
and now Kefi is saying that you said that.

But that's the reality.

How do you want me to call it?
"Seeing each other?" Like, "Seeing?"

Don't force me to use the words
"seeing each other"

because I wasn't born with this language.

When I say "smashing," it's what I know,
that's what we've been doing.

When we were doing a pregnancy test,
you were not talking about smashing.

You damn near had a mental breakdown.

-You did the pregnancy test?
-Yes. Don't do that.

-I don't put people in our business.
-I was so worried.

But if you continue to talk about me
in a certain way when I'm not there--

Can I finish, please?

Because you're not about to be
in closed doors with me

doing a whole Romeo and Juliet.

And then you're acting
like you're bad boy on the road.

Can I finish?

What if I start going around,
saying, "He was alright."?

"I mean, yeah,
we'd be smashing but he was decent."

Would you like if I start telling people,
"Oh, that you're average?"

Oh, because you're not about
to degrade me.

-No, no, I'm not about that.
-You are.

No, no, please, listen to me.

I'll tell you the same thing
from what I've told her,

and I told you the same thing.

She said, "Why are everybody say

that me and you, we're serious?"

And then me and you, our conversation
was like smashing each other.

I said, "Okay,
we started our stuff as that."

"So if Fantana say that, that means
that I've played my part very well."

So I want people to congratulate me

instead of blaming me
that I've manipulated her--

-So for you this is like a game.
-How am I manipulating you?

What can I say?
This is a very difficult moment.

[chuckles]

You need to be smart.
You gotta use all the weapons here.

I want you to take… Can you--

I'm about four seconds
from really cursing you out for real.

So you better start
getting your sentences together

or rephrasing what you're saying.

Because right now,
you don't make no sense. At all!

If you listen, you'll understand me.

I'm not listening to you anymore
because I listen to you,

and it got me nowhere
apart from looking stupid and delusional.

You're playing a dangerous game,
I'll tell you that.

Fantana, it wasn't a game.

Diamond, you already know I'm not like
none of these girls you've ever been with.

I will set you on fire. Don't do that.

[tense music sting]

Diamond… [chuckles]

I, honestly, don't know what to do.

Like, I don't know
if I just want to slap Diamond

or just be like,
"This guy is like a clown."

You can't be trusted. Period!

Do I look like a…

-You do.
-You look like what you're about to say.

Ah, let me use the washroom, please.

You're about to pick-- You know what?
I'm so just sick of you, for real.

This Kefi made me look
like I've-- I've f*cked up.

I didn't f*ck up.

This is the problem
of going after the old ladies.

-Ah.
-[Kefilwe] The washroom.

I think, like,
I need to have one-on-one with Fantana,

because no matter
how crazy stupid I can be,

but this situation was very bad.

And I'll deal with Kefi later.

I don't know.
I don't think he's coming back.

-Of course. He can't handle.
-Obviously.

He can't handle this shame.

I'm not those girls
that you can just decide,

"Here's another smasher
on the group." Uh-uh.

I'm not your girl. You're not my type.

[pleasant, upbeat music playing]

[Zari] Shakib and I had an ugly fight,
and things haven't been the same.

[Shakib] The things she said to me
made me feel bad.

It's not that I'm being insecure.

It's you putting me in a situation
that makes me act the way I am acting.

-Good morning, baby.
-Good morning, my love.

-I got you some food.
-Thank you.

Maybe we can speak
about the whole incident

to try and resolve things.

It was so ugly between me and you.

[in Swahili and English] We had a quarrel,
and it was just so… It was bad.

[in English] I feel like we just need
to put this whole thing behind us.

Especially when it comes to Diamond,

I mean, you know I'm not rolling
with that guy like that.

I haven't acted in a certain way with him

in your presence or out of your presence.

I just felt like it keeps coming back.

And he's lying saying he has messages

where I clearly said
I want to have a baby,

and he doesn't have these messages.

I check Zari's phone every now and then.

I don't see any messages.

I've never seen any messages from any man.

Why are you playing around?
Why play games?

If you have messages, show them.

Honestly speaking, why do I feel
like him lying about text messages…

Why do I feel like he's just manipulating
the whole situation?

-Maybe.
-This is when we need to ignore him.

He wants to put you into-- into a trap

that, you know,
it's gonna make me look bad.

-You figure out a way of avoiding it.
-But that's exactly what he's doing.

Yeah, so you--
It's you to figure out a way

of not doing the same mistake.

-I just want to put all of that behind us.
-Yeah.

That's what I'm also
trying to focus on now

because I see
the more I think about some things,

the more I get hurt,

the more we get misunderstandings,
me and you.

Yeah, and I hate it.

But I love you. No matter what.

Okay.

[gentle music playing]

This is where I want to be.

This is where I want you to be.

-Thank you, baby.
-Always.

This morning, I'm really glad and happy
we've had this conversation,

and we've resolved things.

Annie hasn't been around like forever.
I feel I want to have lunch with her.

The relationship between me and her
is so bad.

We got nasty at each other
the other time so…

-I need to talk to her.
-Alright.

-I love you.
-I love you, baby.

I would like to extend
an olive branch to Annie

because I feel like,
people go through a lot.

So I want to hear her out. "What is it?"

Okay? "Forget what everybody else
is saying in the group."

"Annie, what is it with you?"

[music ends]

[reflective music playing]

I've been away for a while.

And I'm back here, and before I left,
I was so disappointed.

I needed a break from the group.

But while I was away, I got hospitalized.

Being in the hospital
changed a lot of stuff for me,

and that's the truth.

I wrote a long message,

and I addressed it
to every single one of my friends.

This was just me
on my sick bed, apologizing,

and just telling everyone
that we, including myself,

we should be careful
the way we speak to each other.

We never know
what the next person is going through.

Because I know I'm human.

I've messed up in my own way,

but you see, I wasn't expecting,
"Oh, yes, Annie." Uh-uh.

But at the same time I wasn't expecting
such rude, heartless,

I don't know,
almost inhuman kind of respond.

-[message bloops]
-Especially from Nadia.

So my response to this is,
I will still show you love, Nadia.

And so I'm back here.

I just want to make things right.

[music ends]

[upbeat music playing]

[Ini] So finally, Annie is in town.

So I have invited her over to have lunch.

Annie and I are
from the same local government.

And so I like to refer to her as a sister

because we literally come
from the same constituency.

Hey.

-Eh, eh, eh, eh.
-[Ini chuckles]

-Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh!
-Annie!

[Annie laughs]

-What's good, baby girl?
-[exclaims] Say hello.

-Come here, this is forever.
-My big sister is here!

-I can't shout!
-I've never seen… Mm.

[Annie] Forget that phone call.
That was just whatever, girls being girls.

[in Pidgin and English] Today, I just want
to tell her everything that has happened.

[in English] I wanna have
a good time with her.

Who have you seen so far?
Who have you been hanging out with?

-[in Pidgin] You're the one I've not met.
-Not only work.

You'll still hang out.

-[in English] I've seen everybody.
-Everybody?

I got talking with all the girls
and everybody.

[in Pidgin] So I had to reach out to you
because I could not understand.

I'm hearing many, many things.

[in English] They were complaining
about Annie?

[in Pidgin] If they don't talk
about Annie, how will they rest?

[in English] So what did they say
is the problem?

Wow, this is how
we're going to play it, huh?

What I'm expecting, that Annie will have
the humility of just being calm,

and just explaining her own side
of the conversation.

Let's start with Swanky
because that's, like, our guy.

Yeah.

And I'm-- I'm trying
to make it make sense.

With Swanky of all people.
That was like your G.

And how about with me from Swanky?

-You mean?
-The reverse of that.

How about…

with Annie of all people?

-Because everybody seems to take sides.
-Annie… Annie…

I said "Swanky of all people,"

because I know
that there's been a relationship.

-We've all been friends.
-Yes.

I know that you guys are even tighter
than I could ever be with you or with him.

I'm kind of thrown off, like,
okay, even if it's everybody else,

what happened with Swanky
because Swanky is…

-That's how I feel.
-He's your guy.

As long as I can remember, I've seen them
on several occasions together.

I know that they hang out together
in each other's homes.

Swanky lied about a voice note
that doesn't exist.

And it affects my kid.
I'm not going to take that sh*t.

-Okay, Annie--
-No, that voice note, Ini…

[in Ibibio] …that thing cannot be true.

[in English] How-- What is my business
with your voice note? I don't know--

-Why would you say-- That's why I'm upset.
-No, I'm talk-- Annie, excuse me. Annie…

-Why Swanky?
-No, Annie, Annie, excuse me, please.

-Do you know how wrong that is?
-No, no. Listen.

-[sighs]
-I know, and it still hurts.

You don't still see the dent in that.

You-- Are you letting me
even speak, Annie?

Are we still talking about voice note?
This is how many years down the line.

I saw you apologize to Swanky.
He apologized to you.

Automatically I think
that that matter has been squashed.

What can we do to move past this thing?

As far as I'm concerned, the only person
that I actually have a problem with--

-Is Swanky.
-That's Swanky and that voice note.

Every other person I have no problem with.

-Leave it. You and Swanky are friends.
-I'm going to see Swanky--

-Yeah, you should.
-I mean, I owe it to Zari to sit with her.

-I think you need to sit with everybody.
-Yeah, I want to sit with Zari.

The truth is, I actually said
her husband was so young.

[tense music playing]

If you said something like that
at my wedding, I'll throw you out.

So what are you planning? I hear--

Yeah, I wanna try to, like, um,
trying to see…

Naked is…. Like, Naked and I,
we're also very close,

so I want to see
if there is a way, you know, he can,

like, you know,
help me throw like a small thing,

yeah, you know, to invite everyone.

Maybe if Nadia hears that it's my thing,

she won't come
because of the rift that we have.

But in my head right now,
I'm thinking I'm going to talk to Naked.

Get Naked to, even if it means
to lie to her, bring her to the event.

So if Nadia comes,

I can use the opportunity, you know,
to tell her, "Girl, stop this."

But for Zari,

I feel like I need to have
a proper sit-down with Zari.

♪ Hey, hey, way too fast, way too fast ♪

♪ I gotta go, I'm in the zone
Foot on the gas ♪

After asking Kefi a dinner date,
before saying sh*t, she called Fantana.

Fantana came. It was a shame.
So embarrassing. She set me up.

The first person
I'd love to tell is Naked.

[Naked] Whenever Diamond calls me,

it's either he's in trouble with a girl
or he wants to party.

But I think I have an idea of what it is
because he's not his usual bubbly self.

[chuckles]

[Diamond] Naked.

-[chuckles]
-Are you good? Huh?

-What's good, bro? How you been?
-No, I've been super.

-I've been f*cked up.
-You've been f*cked up?

-Yeah.
-What happened?

Man… [sucks teeth]

Where should I start to tell Naked?

You know, being caught red-handed,
it's very--

[chuckles] It's a shame.

It's so embarrassed like… [scoffs]

-[chuckles] Why is life f*cked up?
-[sighs] Bro, man… [scoffs]

-[chuckles]
-I called Kefi to ask her for a date,

like, "Let's go for dinner or something."

-You went out on a date with Kefilwe?
-Yes.

Get to know each other,
and trying to see if I can penetrate.

-Yes.
-[both laugh]

So, I was looking at her,
straight into her eyes,

-you know, like…
-[magical musical sting]

Then, in the middle of the conversation,
out of nowhere,

she said, "Speaking of that,
you know I've invited Fantana here."

[comedic music sting]

-What the f*ck?
-[both laughing]

-Cool!
-Yeah, good!

Diamond deserved what he got.

Because he's not straight up
about Fantana and their relationship.

She came there, and it was so f*cked, bro.

-You are losing. You are losing.
-[Diamond laughs]

-[in Swahili] How is everything?
-How are you?

[in English] You good?

-Good?
-It's all good, bro.

-[Naked] Long time.
-Hello, guys.

-[all] Hi.
-Yes.

-[Diamond] Swanky!
-Mister Jerry!

-What's up?
-Jeremiah.

[in Pidgin and English]
How are you? How are you?

-[in English] How are you, king?
-I'm bad.

[in Patois and English] ] What's going on?
How have you been?

[in English] This one
took Kefilwe out on a date.

-You took Kefilwe out?
-Positively.

As he was trying to, you know,
wiggle his way into Kefilwe.

-I feel like I can guess what happened.
-[Naked] Yeah. What?

-What happened?
-Fantana shows up.

-[all laugh]
-Fantana showed up?

-[Swanky] Is that it?
-Yes.

-[Luis] Wait, wait, wait, wait.
-[Naked] No! How do you know? No!

-You are a m*therf*cker.
-[all laugh]

I think it's a classic because, uh, uh-uh…

These women are speaking
with each other now.

You must understand.

Well, I'm happy you got caught.

If you had told me about this movement,
things wouldn't have gone this way.

I know, I've messed up.
Of course I've f*cked up.

-[all laugh]
-Who never f*cked up?

-Hands in the air.
-[Naked] Yep!

Kudos to Kefi because she's not trying
to be part of that drama.

Imagine, now you are inserting yourself
in Diamond, Fantana, Zari, Shakib…

Now you want to be the fifth party
in all of that mess? No, come on.

Break time for you.

-I'm coming back to you.
-Mm.

-What's going on?
-With?

Kayleigh. When-- When is it happening?
When are you getting married?

No, no, I never want to hear
about marriage.

-[Swanky] Why?
-What are you?

-What's what?
-[Swanky laughs]

What are you and Kayleigh?

[Luis] Okay, okay, so…

No, wait, Kayleigh and I,
we are seeing each other.

-[scoffs]
-We are man and woman.

Naked, she came to my house.

Yeah, I don't want to--

She came to my house.

-Yeah? Mm.
-We had a conversation.

She's at a point where it's this,
or I don't know.

-It's goodbye.
-Because she's tired. She's…

-Then she can go.
-[tense musical sting]

How are you meeting Luis

to tell him
about our relationship problems,

especially if I didn't know
we had relationship issues?

[music ends]

[racy music playing]

Let's go! Let's go. Let's go.
Let me drop my bag.

[chuckles] I mean, no Swanky, no styling.
Switch up the outfit. Let's play the game.

Hah!

-[laughs]
-[Luis] Bro.

So far it's not good, but…

[scoffs] …what can we do?

Ah!

-Yay!
-Come on, Swanky. [chuckles]

This is not fashion business.
I'm… [panting]

[music ends]

[mellow music plays]

I think now is a good time
to address Diamond.

I need to talk to you, bro.

-[Diamond] Me?
-Yes, you.

[tense music playing]

So you know--
You know Shakib and I are tight.

You know what I'm saying?
Shakib doesn't say much.

But when he speaks,
you can pick up here and there.

You know, he's not the type of person
to go and say exactly what the problem is.

So because of our conversations
we've had in confidence,

I don't want to repeat it.

But all I'm asking you
is what is actually going on?

-Between?
-Zari, you and Shakib?

[tense music playing]

All I'm trying to say is, "Diamond,
stay away from people's marriage."

He knows exactly what I'm referring to.

-He asked--
-Where's the text?

-Where?
-There was a text message involved.

[tense music sting]

-I can't--
-Who sent a text where?

No, there was a conversation--

When Zari went online
and said something negative about me,

I couldn't go online.

-She's the mother of my kids.
-[Luis] Yeah.

And whatever she said online,
it wasn't the truth.

So to me to show her
that whatever she did wasn't right,

I went and I texted her directly.

I said, "Do you know,
what you said there isn't the truth."

And why I'm telling you on-- on WhatsApp
is because I don't want you to feel like…

I don't want people to feel like
I'm playing innocent--

Yeah, online.

I told her a lot of things.
It was a very-- a long paragraph.

Do you still have the conversation?
Did you delete it?

-[Naked] What message?
-I do have it.

[in Swahili and English]
All I'm asking you, brother,

is just stay away because--

[in English] But what exactly have I done?
Because I've done nothing.

Diamond feels that Zari still wants him.

-You see? Exactly!
-[Swanky] No.

It's not like a feeling.
That's something that I know.

[Naked] Oh?

-You know Zari still wants you?
-Oh, f*cking definitely.

A married woman still wants you?

-Diamond…
-Doesn't matter.

-She's married to her new husband.
-I respect that. I've never done sh*t.

Then don't tell me that I feel.
I don't feel. I--

So, you knowing that
makes you act a certain way

around Zari in front of her husband?

-No, I don't do that. What did I do?
-[Luis] You do, bro.

No, I just show her huge respect.

Diamond knows what he's doing.
It's to show power.

It's not really to say
that he wants Zari like that, you know.

-These people are married. Just stop, bro.
-What did I do?

The fact that you're saying it,
you feel Zari still wants you--

I did not say.

-You said! He said that.
-He knows! He doesn't feel!

-[Luis] How does he know? How?
-He knows.

How-- How do you know?

I'm a grown up man.
I'm a grown up man, so I know.

[Luis chuckles]

m*therf*cker, I don't feel. I know.

If I tell you that I know,
it's f*cking know.

Zari loves me.

I knew it! I knew it! I knew it!
That-- This is exactly what I'm saying.

He loves this sh*t.
That's what I'm saying.

-[Diamond] No, no!
-No, he loves this sh*t.

He loves the fact
that a married woman wants him.

I didn't say that.

Um, Kefi, Fantana, Ini is going to come
into the picture--

-Yes, but he doesn't act on it.
-He thrives on this sh*t.

-He doesn't act on it.
-[Luis] Not acting on it?

He didn't do anything.

Ha!

I'm like, "You know what?"

I said my piece,
I'll move on and that's it.

-[in Swahili] My brother… My brother…
-[Swanky laughs]

-[in English] Listen to me.
-[Diamond] Yeah.

Please, just stop it.

It's not my fault.

[heartfelt song playing]

♪ I'm sorry for all the fighting… ♪

I've never had a good relationship
with Annie for the entire time,

and when I heard the things
she had to say during my wedding,

I was a little bit thrown off.

I didn't appreciate it.
I didn't like it. I wasn't impressed.

When I saw Annie
at Naked's rollercade event,

I realized we needed to talk.

-Hey. [chuckles]
-Zari.

[Zari] Oh, God! Oh my goodness.
Hey, baby. Hi, how are you?

-[Annie moans]
-Oh, how good to see you, Annie.

-Hi. You came. You came.
-How are you? I did, I had to.

Look at you, Annie, you look so good.
What's happening? Happy?

-I'm good. You came.
-I had to. I had to come. What's up?

First of all, I wanted to say
thank you for coming.

Okay.

I want to own up to…

all the things that I feel

that must have hurt you
about that special day.

I just want you to let… Just tell me…

how you felt, what I did,

everything,
because I want to own up to it.

[heartfelt music continues playing]

The fact that I laughed about the fact
that she had a younger husband

was not really fair on her.

I'm sorry, Zari.

Because love is love.

You don't choose
who you fall in love with, it happens.

I'm not even justifying it because,

you know what, Zari,
when I went back home,

and I thought about some of the things
you said on that table…

If that was me, I would feel the same way.

-Because that was your wedding.
-Annie, I--

-No, listen.
-Annie, let's put that aside.

-I'm over it. I forgave you.
-No, I'm just trying--

I know, but Zari, no, no, no, no.

-Don't say you forgive without telling me.
-I did.

I forgive Annie because her projections
are not my reality.

It's okay, I forgive you.

Do you know how I would feel
if someone had said that and Isabel--

And had the audacity to say…

Exactly, that's why I'm telling you that--

-I forgave you, Annie. Long time ago.
-I was wrong.

-I'm happy.
-And I'm really sorry.

-Annie, I'm so over it.
-Genuinely.

I forgave you.

I let that go.

I'm in a beautiful space right now,

"And, Annie, you are
the least of my problems."

I forgave you
without coming to you to say,

"I forgave you for the things
you said on my wedding." I let that go.

-Then we're good, right?
-I'm good with you.

-I love you. Well, for now.
-I love you.

[quirky music sting]

I didn't come to Annie's house alone.

I actually came with Swanky.
Annie has no idea Swanky is here.

Also, their friendship has been
on the verge of death.

I feel like Swanky needs to step in here.

What is it with you and Swanky?

-What caused it?
-Mama T, I'm open to say--

-This is since last year.
-I'm open to just…

I don't want-- That's what I'm saying--

Do you know I came with Swanky?
I left him in the car.

[tense music sting]

I told him I'm going to speak to Annie,
then you can just walk in.

it doesn't mean
now you have to confine them

to the imprisonment of marriage.

"Oh, when are you getting married?"
I'm annoyed at that question all the time.

Are you not tired of people asking you
when are we getting married?

I mean, it is a question.
It is a valid question.

Don't think because I'm happy
I'm not thinking the same things, babe.

So why don't you come to me?

I've come to you many times.
How many more before you catch a wake-up?

Propose then.

I won't propose to you, babe.
And you take everything as a joke.

[In Zulu and English] You're in a rush.
You want to do it now.

[in English] It's been four years.
You're acting like we met yesterday.

Three and a half.

People will continuously ask you
until it happens.

Then marry those people.

[tense music sting]

Speaking to Quinton
is like talking to a brick wall.

Why are we even talking
about marriage or a wedding?

-Is it about a wedding or a marriage?
-Why aren't we?

I don't want to get married to divorce.

Then what's going to happen to me?
I'm going to be a three-time divorcee.

I just don't know
what else you want from me.

-I want a commitment from you.
-I'm committed to you.

-Babe, there's different phases in life--
-I gave you a key.

[scoffs]

I'm not going to bring this up ever again.

But that also doesn't mean

that I'm going to sit around
and wait for him to be ready.

[tense music playing]

Swanky is coming in.

Lord have mercy.

-[Swanky] Hi.
-Hey.

-Why have you called me here?
-[Annie] It's my house so…

How have you been?

When me and you were having a fight
some time back,

Swanky was the first person to step in

and say, "Look, you're my home girl.
Zari, you're my friend, but this is it."

And the fact that Swanky was there
between me and you,

I felt like he's the right person to come

because Swanky and Annie have
issues that are unresolved.

Swanky, honestly, you know the situation.
You know what's happening here.

Like, she's sitting there,
you there, no eye contact.

What's happening?

I don't have any problem

apart from the situation
she had with Fantana

where she was speaking
very derogatory stuff about me to Fantana.

I was there when she actually said,
"No, Annie said…"

That?

They should be careful about him
because he's two faced.

Mm-hmm.

Did you say that to Fantana?

The reason I said, "Don't trust,"
I said I can't trust him anymore.

Like, I've been friends with him
for this long.

And because I still believe in my heart,
that voice note that I know, it's a lie.

So, if he can do that
about the voice note,

then I can't trust him,
and we've been friends for years.

So you said something to Fantana?

Like, see, last year I was so like,

"I want to see it, play it,
let me hear your line." I said that.

But right now whether it's there,
whether it's not there,

I'm not even mad
about all of those things anymore.

You keep speaking
about the voice note, Annie.

It was a phone conversation you had.
It was a call.

So, you bringing up a voice note
is just random, it's out of context.

-[Zari] Was it-- Was it a three-way call?
-It wasn't a three-way call.

-I was on the phone with the girl.
-[Zari] Yeah.

-Annie calls the girl on--
-[Zari] On another phone?

Yes, and the girl answered the phone.

[in English and Pidgin] No, wait.
Swanky is now saying something different.

[in English] Swanky now is saying to us,
it's not the voice note,

it's a phone call, there were two phones.

Annie, I told you
I heard you on the phone.

-What don't you understand?
-[Annie] I understand that.

So what's the issue?

And you said it's on your laptop.

Show us what you want to show.
Let's move on.

Did you not bring your laptop?

Annie, show us what you want to show us
so we can move on. I'm here.

[in Pidgin] That's why
I didn't want to discuss it.

[in English] So after I told you that…

When I gave that, I'm not the Annie
that sat on Kayleigh's table.

-[Zari] Okay, okay, okay.
-I'm a different person, Swanky.

-We promised to be calm.
-I don't want to talk about--

-I just want to go on because I'm tired.
-I know, I know. Calm down.

Calm down.

Calm down, Annie.

-I can't do this anymore.
-It's okay, it's okay. Just calm down.

Swanky, how do we get past this?
You're saying this, she's saying that.

Can we just move on?
It's just causing so much pain.

This is how I feel now.

I'm sorry I hurt you
for the last two years.

-[Zari] She's apologizing.
-I don't want to fight with you again.

-Annie, I understand.
-[Annie] So I'm tired.

-But you know why--
-[Annie] Swanky, let's let it go.

-I'll be honest, no.
-Let's just let it go.

I-- I get it, we can let it go.

But I don't want to also
continuously feel like, um,

I can't keep it real with you,
you understand?

It's weird, yeah.

Me and you, we shared so much
between us as friends.

You know me very well.

I'm not mad at you
if you can just take accountability.

Because I always believe nobody's perfect.

What if, Swanky,
that's what I was trying to do, actually?

That's all I was trying to do.

I'm fighting for what we shared.

I don't want to feel
like I wasted my life.

I wasted my efforts, my emotions,
my talent, my money, my…

Just everything, you know.

It's like an investment. It's-- It's like…
Annie's like an investment for me.

Where I feel like,

"f*ck, will I lose all of this investment
that I made on this person?"

You know, so that's why
I keep giving her a chance,

keep trying to help her be better.

I keep trying to correct her.

I keep trying to put her on track
every time she falls off the rail.

I can't keep fighting you like this
if I don't care about you.

-[Swanky] Exactly, right?
-[Zari] Yeah.

I'm just being sincere.

Right now, me and you up here
busy fighting for this, our relationship,

fighting for this,
our relationship, fighting--

-Because you want it. Because you want it.
-That's what we're doing?

-Yes!
-[Zari] Otherwise, you wouldn't.

-You miss each other.
-[Swanky] And guess what?

It's okay. Because, at the end of the day,
we're friends, right?

That's the nicest thing
Swanky has said in a long time.

-[chuckles]
-We're fighting for our…

[chuckles] It's like Innocent saying,
"We're fighting for this marriage."

So does it look like we're moving on?

[tentative music playing]

-It feels like we're moving on.
-[Zari] Are we happy?

It feels like we're getting somewhere.

[Zari] Yes, I like it.

-Swanky is so extra.
-[Swanky] Annie can only lose me to death.

She can't wait
for this fight to be over. [chuckles]

[Zari] Come on, now!

-She can't wait for this fight to be over.
-Yeah. This is nice. Look at you.

-Aw, I'm so happy for you.
-[all laugh]

I'm tired of fighting Swanky.

We are moving on.

-Careful I don't break my-- Swanky…
-I will drag you. Get in.

Wait, wait, I have to do it right.

Oh, sh*t.

[both laugh]

I'm so happy, yes!

-[Swanky] I missed you.
-This is so nice!

I would say,
I'm just a person with empathy.

I'm compassionate.
I love hard, and I fight hard.

-How are you?
-I'm fine.

-Are you okay?
-See, I'm now like your level.

[all laugh]

-[Zari] My job here is done.
-Are you okay?

-Also hug me. I love you guys.
-[Swanky] Are you fine?

-Zari.
-[in Pidgin] Hey, Zari, my girl.

[in English] My job is done.

["Coming Back Home"
by WEARETHEGOOD playing]

Tonight, I'm asking Naked to do this event

so that I can have this opportunity
to try and make things right

with whoever it is
that is not happy with me.

Oh, wow, this is pretty.

[harp music interlude]

-Hey, guys.
-Hey, Annie. You good?

Welcome back.

Why I asked Naked to do this,

I know, like, if I directly invite
some of the guys in the group,

they probably wouldn't want to come
because of all the differences we've had,

and there's no better person
to help me put this together than Naked.

[music building]

-Golden boy!
-[Annie] Luis!

I'm super excited because
I haven't seen Annie in a very long time.

It's gonna be a nice one.

[song continues playing]

-How are you?
-[Fantana] Good.

-Sorry, the feathers. Hi.
-[Annie] Hi, Fantana.

How are you?

-Thanks for coming.
-[Fantana] Hey.

Naked told me this event was
for getting all of us together

to just like, say "hi," I guess.
[chuckles]

I'm happy to see everybody
except for Annie.

I don't really care to see Annie.

But I don't see Nadia or Swanky.

So, I don't even know
why I got here before them.

I'm gonna go get myself a drink
because I already know I'm gonna need one.

[music ends]

So I just wanted to know who else?

-Were you able--
-[Naked] I've invited everyone.

-Why are you asking?
-You want everyone here?

Of course I told him everyone.

[Kayleigh] You told her
you lied about the reason?

-I just told them it's my party. Yeah.
-Oh.

[knife slicing]

Why would you lie to people?
Like, give them a choice.

So, word on the street is

a lot of my friends don't want to come
to this party that I've organized.

And, come on, to lie a little bit
and say, "It's just a party,

it's not entirely for Annie."

I'm hoping
that something must have been fixed

for them to say
they are definitely coming to the event.

But you do understand
that everything is just not gonna go away?

He's literally gonna cause
so much sh*t tonight.

-[tense music building]
-But can I ask?

So with the awkwardness
that's gonna unfold, how--

-No, man!
-[Luis] I'm just preparing you.

Do you have a crystal ball?

Will you guys protect me?

-There will be an awkwardness.
-There will be awkwardness.

How will you deal with it?

Because we're trying to prepare you,
what to do and how to act.

Is it that bad though?

-Annie, it's bad. People are pissed.
-It's bad.

-And you?
-I'm not pissed. If I was, you'd know it.

-Right, but… [sighs]
-I'm-- I'm not pissed.

Pissed at what?

They feel that tonight might be awkward
because of Annie.

And why is people-- Why is everyone
pre-empting that it might be a bad night?

I didn't say it will be a bad night.
You shouldn't have lied.

-But I-- I saw Zari yesterday.
-Oh, sh*t!

-For real, for real?
-It was beautiful.

Every time you guys see each other,
say it's beautiful, then fight next week.

Why are you saying every time?
There was-- There was not a time.

You fight, meet up, say it's beautiful,
fight, meet up, say it's beautiful.

[comedic music sting]

[chuckles] This confused child.

[in Pidgin and English]
I did not invite you here.

I'm trying to get Naked like,
"Why is this one here?"

This one I did not invite her.

-You look so fine.
-Good to see you.

-Good to see you too.
-Look at you.

Thank God Zari, Swanky,
all of that, we're good, good.

-How was your meets with--
-Damn!

We don't know what happened.

So I went to her house yesterday,

and I just wanted to find out
exactly what's happening with Annie.

I just didn't know actually
where I stand with her.

We spoke. I kind of felt her pain, and…

And I was like, "Guess what?
Swanky is also here! He's in the car."

-That one was…
-[Luis] You took Swanky?

-Oh, that one was--
-Bro!

You stay making…
Getting people to make peace.

-Yesterday was beautiful, Zari.
-Yeah, I'm happy.

Me too.

-Ini.
-[Ini] Hi, everyone.

[Kayleigh] Hi.

-Here you are. Ooh!
-[Ini] Where do I start from?

[both] Mwah, mwah.

Walking into Annie's party,
the vibe is quite chilled.

Lovely atmosphere.

-Sis.
-[Ini] Miss Host.

-Hi, hi.
-How are you?

It's Nak-- thanks to Naked.

Something's going on. [chuckles]

Oh, wait, the party--

Yeah. What? Yeah, hold on. You-- You lied.

-It's a party.
-What is this?

Uh, like, you know…

What is this?
A lot of people will be pissed.

I don't know. This… [scoffs]
This little event is sketchy.

He said that it's because
we all haven't been together.

So this is a together party for everybody.

-It's for everybody.
-Exactly.

Don't do that.

[Naked] You see what I mean?

[musical time b*mb ticking]

[tense music sting]

Is Nadia coming? Or can I go?

-Ev-- Everyone is--
-If Nadia doesn't come in 30 minutes--

[Naked] Everyone is coming.

I don't see Nadia.
I don't see Swanky. I'm just here.

What am I doing here?

I came and I honored my invite, um,
because of Swanky and Naked,

but one thing I'm not going to do
is pretend like we're all kumbaya here.

We're not kumbaya here.

-[Naked] Wow, wow, wow!
-Bragga!

-[Fantana] Hey!
-Bragga!

As she walks in,
my heart is still smiling.

[in Pidgin] "It's to kiss and make up.
Calm down, it's not that serious."

[in English] That's in my head.

So, I don't… Like, I'm even happy
that she came.

-Hi guys, hi.
-Hey.

I'm not gonna greet you, sis.

Did you guys plan this?

[Nadia] No, but I feel like
we're always giving twin.

-You look really good.
-How are you? You look beautiful.

-Thank you. Can I sit here?
-[Luis] Of course.

-[Naked] Thank you for coming.
-You're welcome.

-Yes, thank you for coming.
-Kayleigh…

-How are you?
-Hey, babe. Good.

-You good?
-Nadia…

-You look amazing. I love green on you.
-Thank you so much.

This is why
I can't be bothered. [chuckles]

I don't know.
I don't like the fake energy.

-Hello, hello, hello.
-Talk about the devil.

Hi, everybody. Hi, everybody.

Annie in some way, somehow,

touched everybody
with some negative spice.

For me, if Annie is able
to take accountability,

I can convince my friends,
the rest of them, to also move on.

[funky music playing]

It's Annie's celebration.
It's been a while I haven't seen her.

I'm hoping to see Fantana,

and I don't know
what my reaction is going to be.

No, I was defending Swanky,
and you told me not to,

that I was defending--

Baba T, you walked into a b*mb. [chuckles]

[Diamond] You're fine?

You alright? I'm saying "hi" to you.

That's fine. Diamond, we--
we're not cool right now, so…

She didn't want to buy it.

And I do understand 100%
because it's my fault.

Diamond doesn't know
I'm not really mad at him.

I want him to feel like I'm really mad
at him so he can, like, do…

Go above and beyond
to, like, make me forgive him.

So, yeah. I'm going to keep acting
like I'm mad,

but he needs to humble himself
before I humble him.

[music ends]

Now that everyone is here…
Today is about celebration.

We're going to celebrate each other.

We've all had incredible achievements,
I think, in the last couple of months.

And while we were busy achieving,

Annie wasn't in a great space,
physically and mentally.

[tense music sting]

And when she got back to Johannesburg,

I thought to myself, you know,

let's not only come together
to celebrate each other,

but let's also have this
in honor of Annie's recovery.

[music crescendos]

Naked definitely lied to me,
and I hate that. Don't lie to me.

Just tell me the truth
and give me the opportunity

to choose if I want to be here or not.

I know that I had to fight a lot of you,

and I had to lie to some of you

and say this was just another party,
but it's special.

I have a feeling that this event
is actually Annie's,

and it's pissing me off as I go by.

And if it is Annie's event,
"Naked, I'm coming for you."

-It doesn't feel like your house?

It doesn't feel like my house.

He doesn't make me feel

-A visitor in your own home.
-[Kayleigh] Exactly.

Apparently, Swanky said
that, um, he wouldn't care if I moved out.

It's fine. Like, it's cool if I moved out.

Quinton really pissed me off now.

He's pissing me off the whole way now.

[indistinct conversations]

[laughs]

I'm happy everybody's
in a very good energy.

-Yeah. How it should be.
-I'm-- I'm loving it.

[Kayleigh] Not everybody, though.

Did you speak to Kefi since that night?

Did you try calling her? Did you text her?

-Is she responding? What's happening?
-Nothing.

So you were hoping she's here
so you talk to her here?

Yeah, and it wasn't going to be

Why are we pretending that this person
has been a good person to us?

So why do we
constantly bring this person in,

and then try to find ways
to celebrate her,

acting like she hasn't been destructive?

[Zari] What's up?

No, what the f*ck is this?

I shouldn't be here.
Naked lied about what this event was.

What did he say?

He said it's an event
where we celebrate our accomplishments.

That's what he also said to me.

Exactly. That's why he said
he lied to some.

This event is for Annie. So why am I here?

-So you guys wouldn't have come?
-Hell, no!

I don't have to be here, babes.

It's not, uh, the end of the world
if I'd missed the event.

I've missed many events before.

No, I feel if you have issues with her,
you confront her.

But also, Zari,
is it okay to be friends with somebody

that just says things,
and that actually hurts other people?

She'll probably learn from it.

No, but all you guys are enabling her
by making excuses for her behavior.

No, I'm not making excuses for Annie.

You know I had a different thing to say.

Remember, at Kayleigh's event,
I went hard on her.

-This one, this little sister of mine…
-[chuckles]

[chuckles] This girl is hot-headed.

But you see, aren't you surprised?
I'm trying to change.

Sometimes, if you don't know what to say,
don't say anything.

See, I'm happy--
I'm happy about what she just said.

She just said, "I'm trying to change."

So that's the first step,
acknowledging where you went wrong.

I'm just wishing and hoping
that Annie has humbled herself enough

to be able to take responsibility
for some things she's done,

so they can move on.

So I'm just here, hoping she's done that.
At least so we can have a great party.

She'll have conversations,
try to fix it with Swanky,

even though she lied.

But she can fix it with you as well.

She won't, that's what I'm saying.

-What if she wants to?
-She doesn't. I know she doesn't.

Yeah.

Swanky!

Me, I believe in fixing
the-- the elephant in the room.

Address the big elephant,
and let's get it moving.

Annie, this is an opportunity for you.
Everyone is here.

Take this thing at once
and just let everybody move on.

Friends and family,
Naked DJ has invited us here.

Naked, Nadia said you lied to her.

So please, go and sort that out
with your friend.

Usher, I'm ushering you there.

-Now?
-Yeah, now now.

-Okay. Nadia.
-Please. Nadia.

So I'm sorry I lied to you.

-So you acknowledge that you lied?
-[Naked] No, I did lie.

-[Nadia] Why?
-Because I wanted you here.

You know what I mean?

-Why?
-You know what I mean?

-You know what I mean? I wanted you here.
-[Zari] Bragga!

I low-key am annoyed at all of them.

Even people I didn't expect
to dismiss me, dismissed me.

Yeah, I'm sorry.

No, you set me up, friend.

I feel even you saying sorry
is not being genuine.

-How do you want me to say it?
-I actually don't even want the sorry.

Because I feel it's not honest.

You set me up.

Look, I lied to you, and I lied
to a couple of other people as well.

Because a lot of people
didn't want to be here.

Maybe this situation
is not as light as I thought.

-Okay, can I say something, please?
-Yes, please.

[Annie] Let me let her speak.

I was like, "Okay, she's trying
to look out for me here."

But I'm just going to say something,
um, about Annie.

Annie is like, um, a sister to me.
She is not a perfect person.

-Oh my God.
-No one is.

-We're making excuses for bad behavior?
-No, honey, that's not--

-That's what's going to happen.
-That's--

You are making excuses--

That is not what I'm trying to say,
sweetheart.

-What I'm trying to--
-So, everyone's here to just defend Annie?

Why is everyone speaking for Annie?

Annie never spoke up for herself once.

[music crescendos]

Annie, you should take the floor.

This conversation--
No, Annie, Annie, perhaps you should.

-Please, stop. Please, stop.
-Everyone has to speak for Annie.

I wanted to, but…

How do you go
from trying to make it look like,

and then you go into,

"Now is the time you should speak up."

"And if you need to apologize, do this."

"I'm happy you listened to me to--"

You can't force me to do something,
because it means I'm not doing it for me.

Everybody's here now.
You can actually do it now.

-Everybody actually came out here.
-Take the floor.

If they did not want to sit here,
the minute--

-Did you think I wasn't going to talk?
-Let me finish!

-I was waiting for everybody to be here.
-Let me finish, babe.

Why would I not want to?

Now. People want to leave.

-Stop fast forwarding, Ini, relax.
-I am fast forwarding?

Ini, you should've allowed me.
I was going to.

Annie, I know you.
You were never going to.

-Why?
-Don't say that. You were never going to.

I begged Naked
to put this event together for me

for a reason.

Not because I wanted to sit there
and be looking and run away.

I want to, but why are you making it
like I don't want to?

I apologize for even trying.

-I shouldn't have, but I-- I take it back.
-[Zari] Everyone is here because of you.

b*tch, do you have a problem with me?

Annie wouldn't dare speak to me like that
anywhere else.

I'm just here trying to save your a*s.

You've mumbled everything up,
you've talked sh*t about everybody.

You've created all this chaos and mess
that I'm trying--

I'm stressing myself to clean up for you.

As she started talking,
I wanted to say, "Ini, stop."

-Please, just do it, so we can move on.
-Well--

[Swanky] I beg you.

[in Pidgin] I'm going to do it,
but you see, I'm already feeling scared.

[in English] Because I see her talking.

[sputtering] No, but you heard
what Ini is saying.

Ini was trying to speak for you.

You can never do it.
You can never have a conversation, Annie.

That's the problem, and with Kefilwe,
I tried to talk to you.

You were dismissive, you were abrupt,
and you were hard to talk to.

I cared for Annie, through people though.

I didn't have a relationship.
I tried to bridge that gap with her.

It failed.

At Kefilwe's thing, it failed.

At the wedding,
I got sworn at, I got insulted.

I got told whom I am as a human being.

[in English and Afrikaans]
Then you talk sh*t about me.

[in English] That sh*t is real life, dog.
I'm a witch and a b*tch!

So all of you guys are going to sit here
and make excuses…

-Wait, I'm not done.
-Let her finish.

You guys are going to make excuses
for bad behavior,

and talk about, "She went through this,

she went through this,
she went through this."

Babes, I'm going through the most.

But I don't walk in destruction.

I don't hurt people.

But one thing I don't appreciate
is being ambushed to be here.

-You did it on real life.
-I heard the sh*t you've said.

About you?!

You f*cking psychopath!
You're a f*cking liar!

I'm not-- Annie--

I told you at her wedding that you lied.

Annie, you're not in my mind
to talk about you.

I said why you being fake?

There's no way I think about you
if I don't have to.

"Accountability" is not a word
in your vocabulary.

-Or standing on business.
-So, shut up, please.

You don't know what it is
to be a real a*s b*tch.

-Or stand on business.
-To call me a fake b*tch is insane.

I have no respect for you.
I have no respect for your husband.

When does this end?

You have nothing to say, my n*gga.

-Ooh!
-You have nothing to say, my n*gga!

Because you're a f*cking sociopath.

So don't you ever talk about me
and my character.

-Never, ever.
-You know nothing about me. Understand?

Do you understand?
