[bunniefuu]

‪[gentle music playing]

‪["5 Alarm" playing]

‪[Menzi chuckles]

‪[Joyce] And then?

‪What in the world have your kids done now?

‪You know what? I'm going to k*ll someone.

‪[partygoers chattering, laughing]

‪[partygoer whistling]

‪[Mpume coughing]

[peaceful music playing]

‪-[dogs barking]
‪-[crickets chirping]

[suspenseful music playing]

‪-[Jonasi] Lindani.
‪-[gasps]

‪[stammers] Mr. Gomora.

‪Are you drinking my liquor?

I was, uh…

[exhales, stammers]
‪I was struggling to sleep.

So I needed a little something
‪to help me sleep.

I'm… I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Oh.

Hmm.

This whiskey

will definitely do that.

It will actually help you
‪get some good sleep.

I've got some real good stuff in my study.

Come.

A beautiful bottle like this,
‪of this caliber,

needs you to relax and be comfortable.

Twenty-five years in the barrel.

And it was produced in France.

‪[chuckles]

‪Mmm.

‪-[coughs]
‪-Whoa. Slowly. Relax.

‪-Are you all right?
‪-It burns.

‪-[chuckles]
‪-[grunts]

‪Yes.

‪Here, have some more.

‪Slowly.

‪Hold it right there.

‪Now swirl it around your mouth.

‪Give it some tongue.

‪Now swallow.

‪Hmm?

‪It feels a little smoother now.

‪It's smoother.

‪-Yes.
‪-There we go.

‪You let me know if you want another round.

‪Please put it in again.

‪Huh?

‪Please put it in.

‪-Put it in?
‪-Yes, please.

‪No.

‪You don't put it in.

‪It's poured.

‪[thrilling music playing]

‪[house music playing]

‪Wow, where have you been?

‪I was at Mpume's.

‪You better just be from Mpume's house.

‪Listen, I don't want a baby
‪after nine months

‪going wah-wah in my house. Do you hear me?

‪There won't be any baby.

‪I'm not feeding
‪any b*stard child in my house.

‪[Lindani] I heard you, Mom.
‪No one is getting pregnant.

‪[Dolly] Good.

‪[phone chimes]

‪[sighs]

‪[sighs]

‪[Lindani] Hello.

‪[Jonasi] Hello.

‪There we go.

‪-Perfect. There we go.
‪-[chuckles]

‪[romantic music playing]

‪[Jonasi] Mmm.

‪You look gorgeous.

‪[chuckles]

‪Thank you.

‪I wouldn't be looking this good

‪if it wasn't for you
‪buying this outfit for me.

‪Oh?

‪[grunts]

‪This place is beautiful. [chuckles]

‪[Jonasi] Mmm.

‪You know, I've never had someone

‪book a whole restaurant
‪just for us to eat.

‪[chuckles]

‪Thank you.

‪I really enjoy spoiling my women.

‪[chuckles]

‪-[phone chiming]
‪-[typing]

‪The sommelier didn't mention
‪where the wine was produced.

‪[clicks tongue] It comes from an area

‪that has limestone deposits,

‪which gives the grapes a distinct taste.

‪-Mpume! Mpume, give me back my phone.
‪-Mister…

‪-[Jonasi] Mmm.
‪-You know everything. [chuckles]

‪There's a lot more I want to learn.

‪-You should just get closer to me.
‪-[laughs]

‪[Mpume] "I can't wait to run my hands
‪between your warm thighs."

‪Disgusting. Are you seeing an older man?

‪-Lindani. [laughs]
‪-He's not older. Give me back my phone.

‪How old is he?

‪Just a young, 45-year-old man.

‪I beg your pardon?

‪What? Jeez.

‪Give me back my phone.

‪You know,
‪people always tell me about three…

‪-…some?
‪-Uh-uh. [laughs]

‪Oh, oh, oh, oh.

‪Three and five-course meals.

‪-Uh-huh.
‪-Not seven.

‪Oh, that's nothing.

‪There's a place I want to take you to
‪in Stellenbosch.

‪-In Cape Town?
‪-Cape Town.

‪[chuckles]

‪However, they-- they serve 11 courses.

‪No way. [chuckles] My stomach would burst

‪-with that much food.
‪-Oh.

‪-Do you know what's about to burst?
‪-What?

‪-You know what's gonna burst? [laughs]
‪-[laughs]

‪Now, what about X?

‪Oh, come on.

‪It's still a talking stage.
‪It's not that serious.

‪X and I are also fine. Wow.

‪What is there to talk about
‪with a 45-year-old?

‪Talking stage? Take your phone.

‪I don't know what it is,
‪but I like how troublesome you are.

‪[chuckles] I haven't even started.

‪Here's something we haven't tried.
‪Taste this.

‪Uh-huh. Put it here.

‪[moans, sucks]

‪See what you do to me?

‪-[laughs, gasps]
‪-You feel that?

‪You feel what you're doing to me?

‪Where's the Life Orientation book?
‪You know, LO.

‪Let's learn about serious things.

‪[chuckles]

‪[chuckling] Mr. Gomora, please stop.

‪Uh-uh, uh-uh, uh-uh.

‪Call me J.

‪Call me J.

‪[breathes heavily]

‪-[Lindani] Baby.
‪-[Xolani] Hmm?

‪[Lindani] Tell me.

‪Do you ever imagine us
‪getting out of Soweto?

‪Living in the suburbs?

‪Oh, yes. That time is, uh, coming.

‪And you'll take me out
‪to fancy restaurants.

‪And we'll book the whole restaurant
‪just for you and me only

‪and then drink all kinds of wines

‪and eat 11-course meals.

‪Then what?
‪We come home to an empty fridge?

‪Honestly, that doesn't make sense.

‪Babe, I just think
‪you're not dreaming big enough.

‪Don't you want us to leave Soweto?

‪I was born here,
‪and I'm definitely not gonna die here.

‪All I'm saying is that don't compare
‪yourself to the rich kids at school.

‪This is home.

‪But, baby, don't you want a house with
‪a pool so we can swim when it gets hot?

‪Live in a penthouse?

‪Drink wine.

‪[Mpume] Superstar, you're my fighter.

‪You should know me by now.

‪I told you I could do it.

‪I am a superstar. [chuckles]

‪I'll bring you your drink. [gasps]

‪J.

‪J what?

‪[inhales sharply]

‪Just look at you, hmm?

‪-You're dressed like that in my house?
‪-[breathes shakily]

‪This is not just your house.

‪It belongs to Joyce as well.

‪What if she walks in on us?
‪What will she do then?

‪Who do you think you're talking to?

‪I'm not one of your friends.

‪I'm sorry for being disrespectful.

‪It's just that…

‪[stammers] I'm just a bit afraid.

‪Don't be scared.

‪What are you scared of?

‪Huh?

‪-[breathes heavily, grunts]
‪-Don't be… be afraid.

‪Don't panic.

‪Don't panic.

‪We're just talking, you and I.

‪Right?

‪Yes, sir.

‪Yeah.

‪-[inhales] Oh, damn.
‪-[breathes shakily]

‪[chuckles]

‪[sighs]

‪[grunts]

‪-[grunts]
‪-Yeah?

‪Listen.

‪I leave for Durban soon.

‪I would love for you to join me.

‪Um…

‪-[stammers] Yeah, I'd love to join you.
‪-Oh, really?

‪I've never been to Durban.

‪-Oh, is it?
‪-Yes.

‪Okay. Tell you what.

‪-Listen.
‪-Yeah.

‪I'm a grown man.

‪You're a grown-up too, right?

‪Yes.

‪We're not going there to play
‪hide-and-seek or cat-and-mouse, right?

‪We're… We're not gonna play hide-and-seek.

‪-We won't?
‪-Yeah.

‪[door slams]

‪-[inhales]
‪-[Menzi humming]

‪Well, thank you for the juice, Mr. Gomora.

‪-All right, no worries.
‪-Menzi.

‪-Hi.
‪-Hi.

‪[Menzi chuckles]

‪Dad.

‪Son.

‪-Yes.
‪-Mmm.

‪[Mpume] I hope you've got everything.

‪Don't forget your ID, Lindan.

‪[chuckles]

‪-[exclaims]
‪-[upbeat music playing]

‪-[chuckles]
‪-Wow! Unbelievable.

‪-Thank you, my friend, for picking me up.
‪-[music stops]

‪Are you sure
‪he's not taking advantage of you?

‪Take advantage of who?

‪Me? Mpume, he's taking me
‪to Durban for a vacation.

‪He loves me and respects me.

‪[imitating Lindani]
‪He loves and respects me.

‪[normal voice] If he's "perfect," Lindan,
‪what does he want with a young girl?

‪Mpume, some things you'll only understand
‪when you're older.

‪When you're fully a woman.

‪I don't want to understand.

‪-Disgusting.
‪-So what do they eat in Durban?

‪-Everything.
‪-Mmm.

‪You know when I say everything,
‪I mean everything.

‪There's this, uh, holiday house
‪my father used to take us to in Durban.

‪Your father has a holiday house?

‪I didn't tell you?

‪-[music resumes]
‪-No.

‪You did not.

‪["Imoto" playing]

‪[gasps]

‪It's so beautiful.

‪Mmm.

‪-[sighs] It's beautiful. [giggles]
‪-Mmm.

‪It feels like heaven.

‪-Oh.
‪-[giggles]

‪That's where we're going.

‪Hmm?

‪[chuckles]

‪Let me go see what's outside.

‪My goodness.
‪This place is really beautiful.

‪[laughs]

‪-[sighs]
‪-[Jonasi] Yes. Let's go and see.

‪[seagulls squawking]

‪Come on now.

‪Get out of there.

‪[Lindani chuckles]

‪Sorry. I was enjoying the water.

‪Leave the water alone.

‪Come choose here what you'd like to eat
‪from the menu.

‪-[sighs]
‪-Mmm.

‪[Mpume] ‪Mmm…

‪Our holiday house
‪comes with a private chef.

‪There's a burger he introduced me to.

‪It is called, um, Wagyu with foie gras.

‪It has foie gras?
‪What the hell is foie gras?

‪-It's French.
‪-Hmm?

‪-Oh, I know what I want to eat.
‪-Ah?

‪Does this menu have
‪a Wagyu burger with foie gras?

‪What do you know about Wagyu burgers?

‪And foie gras? [chuckles]

‪-Oh, please. I know a thing or two.
‪-Mmm.

‪You know there's more options on that menu
‪and plenty of food to choose from

‪than just your burger.

‪-I see that now.
‪-Mm-hmm.

‪What are you having for a starter?

‪Oh, for starters?

‪[chuckles]

‪[tense music playing]

‪I see sweet corn here. Maybe…

‪[scoffs]

‪Okay.

‪[Lindani] Don't worry.

‪Everything will go well today.

‪You are thee Gomora after all.

‪You make things happen.

‪[scoffs]

‪[chuckles]

‪[Lindani chuckles]

‪[chuckles]

‪Go or you'll be late. [chuckles]

‪[chuckles]

‪[door opens]

‪-[door closes]
‪-[squeals, laughs]

‪["iMali" playing]

‪[chuckles]

‪Oh.

‪[phone buzzing]

‪-[music ends]
‪-Listen.

‪[Jonasi sighs]

‪Put this on for me.

‪Why don't you put it on?

‪Oh, but this underwear is--

‪Just put it on.

‪Don't you want to make me happy?

‪Hmm?

‪Don't you want to make Daddy happy?

‪I do.

‪Then go.

‪[sighs]

‪[phone buzzing]

‪Do you like it?

‪Come here.

‪Come here.

‪[both breathing heavily]

‪So what's that?

‪Oh.

‪No.

‪These are things
‪I want us to have fun with.

‪But only if you're comfortable with it.

‪If you feel like it's enough,

‪I'll stop.

‪Are you ready?

‪Yeah.

‪Just a little… [inhales]
‪…game for us to play.

‪Yeah.

‪[Lindani moans]

‪[both breathing heavily]

‪[Lindani]
‪Mpume, my legs were constantly in the air.

‪-[chattering]
‪-I left Soweto a sweet little girl.

‪You know?
‪And I came back a fully grown woman.

‪-Uh, hold on, does he have a big belly…
‪-[exhales]

‪-…that hides his machine?
‪-No, no, no. His machine?

‪His machine really works.

‪It works in the morning,
‪during the day, and at night.

‪Morning, during the day,
‪and night. It works--

‪So your phone does work?
‪You've been ignoring me all weekend.

‪-Xolani, give me my phone.
‪-Just wait a minute.

‪-I wasn't ignoring you.
‪-Piss off, Lindani.

‪-Give me, my--
‪-Actually, you're full of sh*t.

‪You think I'm a fool.

‪I'm not. I was with Mpume
‪the whole weekend doing an assignment.

‪f*ck that assignment sh*t.
‪Let's see who you've been talking to.

‪-Xolani, my phone.
‪-Just wait. Give me a minute.

‪Xolani!

‪Xolani.

‪[Lindani] I have the right thing for you.

‪-Let me take it out for you.
‪-Wow.

‪Let me plug you.

‪You carry panties around in your bag?

‪When you go to Bonginkosi wearing this…

‪What the f*ck is this?

‪And something you ladies should know

‪is if you don't put out, he won't stay.

‪[both moaning]

‪[Mpume] Bongs would never cheat on me.

‪He's nothing like my dad.

‪[Lindani cackles] Girl,
‪you're absolutely right.

‪Your father is something else.

‪-[moaning]
‪-[breathing heavily]

‪[retching]

‪-[Mpume] Oh, no! Lindani.
‪-[vomiting]

‪[Xolani] Is it mine?

‪How can you even ask me
‪something like that, Xolan?

‪You think I haven't noticed
‪your shady behavior of late?

‪You're always at Mpume's every weekend.

‪Now I'm trying to process everything.

‪Look, you know me better than anyone.
‪You know what type of man I am.

‪I know.

‪If I have to be responsible
‪for this child, I will.

‪What I need you to do is
‪look me in the eyes

‪and swear on your mother's life
‪that it's mine.

‪Please.

‪Who else could this child belong to?

‪[sighs]

‪I hope those 11-course meals
‪were worth it.

‪-Xolani.
‪-Mm-mmm.

‪-[Jonasi] Don't cry, baby girl. Don't cry.
‪-[Lindani sobbing]

‪You know what they say,
‪a child-- a child is a blessing.

‪No matter how messy the situation is.

‪Uh-uh. Uh-uh. Uh-uh. Uh-uh.

‪I don't want to see you crying again.

‪We'll work it out.

‪How will we work it out?

‪Look.

‪I'll get you a nanny
‪to help you with the baby.

‪So that you can carry on with school.

‪Don't worry, you'll be fine.

‪This is a blessing.

‪[tape rewinds]

‪["Me & The OG" playing]

‪You brought me to a club?

‪[chuckles]

‪I thought I'd surprise you…

‪-Wow.
‪-…'cause you always do nice things for me.

‪[chuckles]

‪You, you're crazy.

‪-Me? I'm crazy?
‪-Yes.

‪What do you mean I'm crazy?

‪Hmm?

‪Can't you tell?

‪No.

‪[hip-hop music playing]

‪[chuckles]

‪[gasps]

‪[moaning]

‪-[tense music playing]
‪-[footsteps approaching]

‪-[moans]
‪-[coughs]

‪[Menzi hyperventilating]

‪[Jonasi] ‪You know she's a sweet girl.

‪Yes.

‪Don't be so scared.

‪You're such a coward, my boy.

‪Huh?

‪And you're giving up on that?

‪[hyperventilating]

‪[Menzi] ‪She-- She has a boyfriend.

‪Listen here.
‪What's the old saying, brother?

‪[both] You find a partner
‪from someone else.

‪-[Jonasi] ‪Exactly.
‪-[Magesh] ‪Take her from him.

‪[Jonasi] ‪Take her from him.
