‎[ominous music playing]

‎[chattering]

‎[inmate] It's been a rough night, eh?

‎[speaking indistinctly]

‎[Moses] How many?

‎About three were shot dead.

‎[Moses scoffs]

‎Five were arrested.

‎f*ck!

‎There's more.

‎Scarra says...

‎there's a snitch in Gaz'lam.

‎If that's the case, you'll have to tell
‎Crystal we won't be doing the next job.

‎What we have to do is to find
‎who's the snitch among us.

‎[Moses] ‎My blood...

‎-[members] ‎Is my brother's blood!
‎-[prison door rattles, slams]

{\an8}‎[sorrowful music playing]

{\an8}‎You told me he's dead.

{\an8}‎[Mbali sighs]

{\an8}‎That's what I thought as well.

‎Dad told us he had passed away, so...

‎That's what I believed.

‎So, what's this then?

‎I just got that.

‎And you thought it best not to tell me?

‎Sphe, it was for your safety.

‎From what? Huh? He's in prison, Mbali.

‎He's very dangerous.

‎Moses is not the same person we knew.

‎He's my brother.

‎You had no right to do that.

‎[inhales] Stay away from him, Sphe.
‎Please, Brother.

‎[gate opens, beeps]

‎[Agnes] I only gave you one job,
‎and you failed at that.

‎Now the media is all over you.

‎Yes, but we stuck to the plan, didn't we?

‎You stuck to a shitty plan. What happened?

‎I don't know, but maybe
‎those lowlives are responsible, and...

‎Right now, you're giving me
‎shitty excuses.

‎Do you still want to stay there,
‎in that apartment?

‎Aggie, look...

‎Leave the wh*res alone and do your job.

‎[upbeat music playing]

‎Yes! Get in, baby girl.

‎Get in.

‎[grunts]

‎[inmates chattering, laughing]

‎-[music ends]
‎-[families chattering]

‎Moses Dlamini?

‎I was hoping you would come.

‎You still remember me?

‎How can I forget you, little brother?

‎Lili.

‎Mlilizeli. [chuckles]

‎Yeah. It's been a while
‎since I've been called by that name.

‎Uh...

‎I think this is me and you in this photo.

‎Ah, of course. I remember.

‎When you were still a child,
‎I loved scaring you with "Pinky Pinky."

‎-Yeah.
‎-You'd be scared to go to the toilet.

‎Yeah, hey.

‎Dad used to hit me because of that.

‎He would always call me a coward.

‎You called the cops on me?

‎You are disrespectful,
‎and you are on drugs!

‎You deserve to rot in jail.

‎[Moses] Come sit right here.

‎You know what?

‎Our father was an as*h*le.

‎All he knew was discipline.

‎All he knew was giving punishment.

‎Yeah. Um...

‎We thought you were dead, though.

‎You know, I can't believe
‎he told you that.

‎So, uh...

‎They say you've... done some things.

‎I've done some things, but...

‎not all that they say is true.

‎[energetic music playing]

‎[in Cantonese] ...why it took so long,
‎and I still have to wait?

‎Sorry about that,
‎the dishes will be here very soon.

‎-[in Mandarin] Bring out the dishes.
‎-I know, but I can't go help right now.

‎[chef] Oh, fresh ginger. Oh, fresh ginger.

‎[staff chattering]

‎-Chicken? Where is the chicken?
‎-Wait a moment.

‎[chef] Oh, oh, fresh
ginger, fresh ginger...

‎-[staff chattering]
‎-[chef] Enough, enough.

‎-[doorman, in English] Cell phone, please.
‎-[Mbali breathes shakily]

‎[tense music playing]

‎Our lawyer has arrived.
‎We can now start our business.

‎You know, I've lost some good people.
‎My brothers.

‎Some were shot and some were arrested.

‎None of this happened
‎because of a mistake.

‎It happened on purpose. You know why?
‎Because there is a snitch here.

‎A rat.

‎And I know who the snitch is.

‎Hey...

‎You know, some people don't give up.

‎They want to see you dead, you see.

‎But we survive.

‎We have Mbali in our corner.

‎She knows the game.

‎What do you mean, Mbali?
‎Is she your lawyer?

‎She didn't say anything?

‎Things are a bit complicated at home.

‎What is it? Do you have a problem?

‎[Sphelele sighs]

‎Don't let these walls fool you.

‎I will help you, my boy.

‎[scoffs]

‎Like I said, big bro, it's just that...

‎things are a bit complicated, you see.

‎What is it?

‎Is it work?

‎Mm-mmm.

‎[clicks tongue] It's a girl.

‎-It's a girl. Ah, I see you, boy.
‎-[chuckles]

‎Seems like you're messing around.

‎What, is your girl pregnant?

‎Ah, is it that obvious?

‎[Moses laughs]

‎[tense music playing]

‎So, your friend, you know...

‎your best friend,

‎he's a snitch now, suddenly.

‎A rat, and you know what I do to rats.
‎I crush them.

‎And when I look around the room,
‎I can see they are here.

‎Between the two...

‎Eeny, meeny, miny, moe.
‎Catch a sell-out by the toe.

‎I smell something shitty over here.

‎[stammers] You know,
‎only one person helped me.

‎Moses's sister got me
‎out of that shitstorm.

‎Zola was there at his post.

‎Only one person was missing. Just one dog.

‎Oros.

‎Looks like someone
‎was getting cozy with the cops, huh?

‎-Wait a minute, Crystal. Wait a minute.
‎-Uh-uh. Don't tell me to wait. Sit. Sit.

‎[Oros] Wait a minute.

‎Guys, I did not talk to any cops.

‎I did not talk to any cops.

‎[Scarra] So, what happened to your phone?

‎So you couldn't even call just to say,
‎ "Hello. How are you?"

‎Or send a callback?

‎Scarra, I was drunk, bro.

‎I was drunk, f*ck... f*cked up.

‎I woke up late and I didn't have airtime.

‎I know I f*cked up, I f*cked up big time,

‎but I'm not a rat. Never.

‎I just drink.

‎-Ask Zola, ask Zola.
‎-Yeah, you know what?

‎Scarra, you know very well
‎how things go down in jail.

‎You see, Oros, once he starts drinking,
‎he doesn't stop.

‎He drinks a whole lot, Brother.

‎But that's it. That's it. Period.

‎I was... I was almost surprised.

‎You know, I was getting surprised as to
‎why you're not defending your friend.

‎You. This friend of yours here. You.

‎You see, Zola,
‎your problem is that you're too trusting.

‎As for you,
‎how did you manage to get parole

‎when you're such an alcoholic, huh? Hmm?

‎[Mbali breathes shakily]

‎That was me.

‎After the appeal, I...
‎I spoke to the parole board,

‎and I... I asked them to consider
‎that his alcoholism,

‎it started in prison.

‎And it was a consequence of it.

‎All right? And they should consider that.

‎I promised them that he would go to rehab.

‎Oros, you're in rehab, right?

‎Right?

‎[stammers] Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

‎Yeah, I-I-I...

‎I haven't started, but... I'm gonna go.

‎[tense music playing]

‎[sniffles]

‎You are f*cking up, boy.

‎Sorry.

‎[shouts] Huh?

‎[Oros] Sorry.

‎So... Sorry?

‎-[Oros] Sorry, my brother.
‎-Sorry?

‎-[Oros] Sorry.
‎-[Scarra] Sorry?

‎Sorry. I'm sorry, Scarra, I'm sorry.

‎-Scarra.
‎-My man, hold this dog down.

‎-Hold this dog down!
‎-[Oros] Wait a minute, listen to me!

‎-Hey, open your hand!
‎-[all shouting]

‎[Oros screaming]

‎-Scarra!
‎-[Crystal] No!

‎-[screaming]
‎-[Crystal] Stop it! No!

‎[Scarra mutters]

‎-[Oros screaming]
‎-[Scarra imitates screams]

‎[Crystal] Get him out of here.
‎Get him cleaned up.

‎He's being paranoid.

‎Thinks we've been hacked, so he's doing
‎background checks on everyone who's new.

‎Financial audits,
‎lifestyle assessments, legal documents,

‎you name it, he's f*cking doing it.
‎[breathes deeply]

‎I have some forensic financial experience.
‎I can help with that.

‎You know he's crazy, right?
‎He's f*cking crazy.

‎I don't even know who's on this list.

‎But you helping him out
‎with that sh**t out,

‎that scored you some points.

‎And now he trusts you with speaking
‎to Moses, and that's what you need to do.

‎-Mbali. Mbali!
‎-Mmm?

‎You need to speak to Moses.

‎[sighs]

‎[Zola] Mbali.

‎I know what just happened scared you.

‎I guess we're in your debt again.

‎None of that means anything
‎if Oros doesn't toe the line, Zola.

‎-I need to speak to him.
‎-Okay.

‎Let's go, let's go.

‎Call me.

‎[sighs]

‎Let's go.

‎[Tau sighs]

‎[grunting]

‎[winces] Goodness. My gosh.

‎You should really lay off the red meat.

‎[Tau sighs]

‎Scarra is out for blood.

‎And that mad dog is obsessed
‎with finding this rat.

‎I don't think he's wrong.
‎I would do the same thing.

‎He was going to k*ll Oros.

‎I had to lie to save him.

‎[chuckles] Hey, my girl. Hmm.

‎-So you help criminals now, right?
‎-He's innocent.

‎I lied and said the Parole Board put him
‎in a rehab treatment for alcoholism.

‎So how is that my problem?

‎You have to put the treatment
‎in his records.

‎Hey, you know what?

‎I know, when you look at me,
‎you see a superhero,

‎like Superman or
whatever, but... [chuckles]

‎You know what, I'm sorry,

‎but some things are just beyond
‎what I can do.

‎Oh, please.

‎Scarra got the records
‎of all the new recruits.

‎If these people figure out that I lied,
‎I'm dead.

‎[clicks tongue] My goodness.

‎I'm begging you.

‎Please, Tau.

‎[sighs, clicks tongue]

‎-[upbeat music playing]
‎-So tell me, babe...

‎What's your brother like?

‎Is he, like, one of those
‎tattooed, masculine guys or what?

‎-[chuckles] ‎-Like what?

‎Come on, baby,
‎he's not a cartoon character. Why?

‎Okay then, what sort of person
‎did you expect?

‎Uh, I thought I would meet someone...
‎Actually, I don't know, baby.

‎But he's a cool guy,
‎and he's making me think

‎I don't even believe
‎he did what they say he did.

‎I really don't believe
‎he did them, you know?

‎-Mmm.
‎-And he said he'd like to meet you.

‎-Are you serious?
‎-Yeah. [grunts]

‎Yo, but I don't think
‎prison visits are your thing.

‎Baby, if you're going to start the same
‎antics that your sister did to you,

‎then we are going to have a problem.

‎It would be better if you stayed,
‎and I'll go alone.

‎-Seriously?
‎-Mmm.

‎-No, man, baby.
‎-No.

‎[vehicle approaching]

‎You want me to come with you?

‎-Mm-mmm.
‎-Are you sure?

‎It will only make things worse, baby.

‎Wait here.

‎Dad.

‎Ntombi. How are you, my child?

‎Well, what can we say,
‎since my parents kicked me out of my home.

‎Oh, you know, I brought you some snacks,
‎I know you enjoy these.

‎Oh, thank you, Dad.

‎Uh...

‎-I also brought this Bible.
‎-[sentimental music playing]

‎-Tell me...
‎-Thank you.

‎...how are you? Are they treating you well?

‎Yeah. They are treating me well, Dad.

‎Even the child is all right.

‎Yes. I see, my child...

‎[clears throat] Good afternoon, sir.

‎Hey, boy. How many times must I tell you

‎that we have nothing to speak about
‎until you do the right thing?

‎You know there is only one way
‎that you can soften her mother's heart.

‎You have to do the right thing.

‎Oh, yes, yes, Father. I'm already on it.

‎I'm busy working on it. I'll do it.

‎Listen, boy.
‎This needs more than just talk.

‎Do you hear me? [clicks tongue]

‎What did I say to you?
‎Didn't I tell you to stay in the car?

‎Look what... You're so annoying, Sphelele.

‎[chattering]

‎-Who's playing? Whose turn is it?
‎-His turn.

‎So Sphelele, tell me how you want to play?
‎What's your bet? It's your turn.

‎-[chattering]
‎-No, guys. I'll bet 50 rand.

‎[bookie] Okay, place it there, my brother.

‎Here's the dice. It's your turn to play.
‎Roll the dice.

‎Walk all over them, my son.

‎[gambler] Spend that money,
‎spend that money.

‎-[dice clatter]
‎-I beg you, please.

‎-Wow. Come on. Let's go it again.
‎-Let's go, let's go.

‎-Let's do it again.
‎-Place your bets.

‎[sighs] You know what?
‎Let's just bet a clean hundred.

‎Let's roll, let's roll, let's roll.

‎-Roll the dice. Let me clear this.
‎-Hundred rands.

‎-Roll the dice, let me see what you have.
‎-Roll the dice.

‎-Let's go.
‎-[Sphelele] I beg you, please.

‎-[bookie] You are taking chances.
‎-[laughter]

‎All right, guys, let's place your bets.
‎Let's go, let's go.

‎Roll the dice, roll the dice.

‎[chattering]

‎[upbeat music playing]

‎Sister! Welcome back.

‎We're chilling there.

‎How's your hand?

‎Ah, it's pretty sh*t.

‎But I will survive.

‎By the way, thank you.
‎Now I must go to f*cking rehab.

‎Yes, yes, yes.

‎I was helping you, right? You have to go.

‎Ah, sure, sure, sure.

‎-Sure.
‎-Make it real, okay? Make Zola believe it.

‎If you make Zola believe it,
‎everyone will believe it.

‎Oros, please take this seriously.

‎Otherwise, all these people
‎will think you're the rat.

‎Don't talk sh*t. I'm not a rodent.

‎All right? I'm not a rat.

‎I am not a rodent. Thank you. Thank you.

‎Um, what's the rehab
‎you want to send him to?

‎-Here.
‎-[Mbali] No, thank you.

‎Hold on a minute. That's tomorrow, man.

‎Today...

‎we're going to party.

‎Oh, really? And if you don't go tomorrow?
‎Then what?

‎[Oros exclaims]

‎[sighs] Miss, can you bring me a tequila?

‎You want some?

‎[Zola] Thanks, I'm all right.

‎Well, aren't you a cheap date?

‎-[chuckles]
‎-Are you talking to me?

‎Okay, so, what you're trying to tell me

‎is that this is our first date?

‎Smart-a*s.

‎Tell me, were you done with Oros?

‎Because you sounded serious on the phone.

‎You can see for yourself how drunk he is.
‎There's nothing I can say to him.

‎[romantic music playing]

‎Listen, we're grateful.

‎You really did your thing today.

‎And honestly speaking, I was...

‎also starting to think
‎Oros might have done it.

‎I really love this song.

‎Oh, yeah?

‎They say if you love a song,
‎you'll dance to it, right?

‎-So why not join me on the dance floor?
‎-No, no. No.

‎-Are you gonna make me dance alone?
‎-Mmm...

‎-[chuckles]
‎-Come on. Come on.

‎-Bye.
‎-Don't do this to me now.

‎[song continues]

‎[Oros laughing]

‎-[gamblers chattering]
‎-You will lose.

‎You're going to lose.

‎-Here we go.
‎-Roll the dice.

‎-Are you scared of losing money?
‎-[laughs]

‎Come on.

‎-[Mbali] No way. [chuckles]
‎-Let's go.

‎[song continues]

‎[laughs]

‎Are you scared of losing money?

‎[Sphelele] Come on, bring it.
‎One more time.

‎Yes!

‎[laughs]

‎-[song fades]
‎-[Oros] It's nice to be here!

‎Hey, my brother, I'm driving here.
‎I'm driving here. I'm driving here.

‎[Oros laughing]

‎So the two of you... Tell me,
‎where did you guys meet?

‎[chuckles] Um...

‎We were soldiers together.

‎b*mb disposals. [sighs]

‎You can only do that job
‎for a certain amount of time

‎before they just drop you like that.

‎[Mbali] When you get out of there,

‎it's either you become
‎a mercenary or a criminal.

‎-[Oros snoring]
‎-Isn't that right?

‎Yeah. Something like that.

‎What was Oros whispering to you?

‎He was warning me about you.

‎Me?

‎Why?

‎[sighs] Moses is your big brother.

‎He would cut my ba*ls off.

‎-[Zola chuckles]

‎Ever since he came back from university,
‎he doesn't know what to do with himself.

‎-University?
‎-[Oros exclaims]

‎Yes, that's what granny calls prison.

‎[giggles]

‎Hey! [exclaims]

‎Swati girl. [shushes]

‎-You're embarrassing me. Just hold on.
‎-Wait a minute. Ah! Wait a minute.

‎-Hold on. Nuh-uh.

‎You and I.

‎From the beginning.

‎-You hear what I'm saying?
‎-Yeah.

‎You hear what I'm saying?

‎From the beginning, dawg.

‎[Zola] Yeah. Until the casket drops,

‎-I'm not saying you must fall now.

‎[all chuckle]

‎-[Mbali] Hey.
‎-Come on, come on.

‎[Oros] ‎Yoh!

‎-[Mbali, Zola chuckle]
‎-[slurring] I'm f*cking drunk.

‎-[Mbali grunts]
‎-[Zola] Easy, easy, easy.

‎-[Oros groans]
‎-[Zola, Mbali grunting]

‎[sighs]

‎-[panting] ‎-I love you guys.

‎-My sister.
‎-Sure.

‎Please ask my granny for just one.

‎[Mbali] Ah...

‎Just one.

‎[gentle music playing]

‎[sighs]

‎Why did they hurt me?

‎[breathing heavily]

‎They really hurt me, man.

‎-What do I always say, Brother?
‎-[groans]

‎I got you.

‎[Oros] Mmm.

‎Listen, tomorrow, I'll get you
‎some painkillers and you'll be just fine.

‎[Oros sobbing]

‎Oros.

‎[Oros snoring]

‎Yeah, our brother is sleeping now.
‎Let's go.

‎[chuckles]

‎-Grandma.
‎-Hello.

‎-Your child has passed out.
‎-He's sleeping?

‎Your grandson is dreaming now.

‎-Let me see my grandson.
‎-[sighs]

‎Ooh, my grandchild. Hey.

‎-[Oros mumbles] ‎-[granny] Hey?

‎Here's your warm milk.
‎It's warm just the way you like it.

‎-Come on.
‎-[Oros groans] Mm-mmm.

‎[granny] Are you snoring now?
‎Oh, my goodness.

‎Let me take off your shoes.

‎Listen, I think you should
‎stay with your friend tonight.

‎What did I say to you, Mbali?

‎I said I would take you home, right?

‎I will take a cab, all right?

‎Can I, uh...

‎Can I...

‎call you at least?

‎We'll see.

‎[chuckles] All right.

‎[grunts]

‎Hello, Auntie.

‎-Hello, sir.
‎-By his grace.

‎Auntie, please, would you help me?
‎I'm looking for Oros. Is he around?

‎-Yes, he's here.
‎-Can you call him for me, please?

‎-[granny] Ori.
‎-Yes, please.

‎[granny] There is somebody here for you.

‎-Yes?
‎-[Tau] Hello, hello, hello.

‎-Sure.
‎-How are you?

‎-I'm good.
‎-Hey, man. Is Tebogo around?

‎Tebogo?

‎Yes, you know that man
‎that had the yellow braids?

‎Doesn't he stay around here?

‎-There's no Tebogo here.
‎-Serious?

‎Damn. Man...

‎[sighs]

‎Can I have a glass of water there,
‎to wash my food down?

‎Uh, okay, stay there.

‎-Please bring it here, would you?
‎-I'll be back.

‎Yes, sure. Okay.

‎Okay.

‎[suspenseful music playing]

‎[grunts]

‎Thank you very much, man.

‎[Oros] Sure.

‎[Tau exhales, chuckles]

‎Hey, you know what? Tell me something.

‎Isn't there a shop around here
‎where I can buy a cold drink?

‎And now?

‎-Looks like this is worrying you?
‎-[sighs] Piss off.

‎-Huh?
‎-Piss off.

‎-Come here.
‎-[stammers] What are you doing?

‎-Relax, huh?
‎-Piss off.

‎[chuckles] Oh, come on, huh?

‎[laughing]

‎Charlie!

‎[chuckling] Where's the love, huh?

‎Yes, yes.

‎-[door opens]
‎-[footsteps approaching]

‎You're late.

‎Sorry, man. I was busy. [sniffs]

‎We found the snitch.

‎[suspenseful music playing]

‎The most important thing on this Earth
‎has got to be loyalty.

‎Now, that's the code.

‎When a man is found to be untrustworthy,

‎you cut him out.

‎We have no choice. He's a cancer.

‎Tell Zola to deal with Oros. Today, still.

‎Oros?

‎We screened him already.

‎The police were seen at his place.

‎What if you find out
‎that you've made a mistake?

‎And Zola, Moses? No.
‎They're like brothers.

‎You said you wanted to work for us.

‎This is it.

‎Or did you not hear me?

‎[tense music playing]

‎You didn't tell the boy about me.

‎Lili. Not a word.

‎Sphe was here?

‎He was here.
‎I told him to come visit me again.

‎You just didn't tell him.

‎Yeah, well, look at what
‎you got me doing right now.

‎You're surprised?

‎[knocking on door]

‎[sighs]

‎What the... And then?

‎You sentenced that boy to death.

‎[chuckling] Well, you know,
‎you're welcome.

‎You were supposed to save him,
‎not set him up.

‎Hey.

‎I saved your life. That's all I did.

‎Your job is to protect us.
‎This isn't right.

‎Tau, what the f*ck is this?

‎You came to me...

‎You came to me, begging...

‎begging me to help you.

‎So I helped you.

‎That is how life goes, my girl.

‎Huh?

‎It's real life now. It's messed up.

‎I am not your girl, Tau.

‎Understand?

‎[inhales deeply]

‎[tense music playing]

‎[knocks on door]

‎Hey.

‎You're early.

‎Um... You can come in.

‎Make yourself at home.

‎Can I get you a drink, or something?

‎We need to talk.

‎Let me guess.

‎You're worried that your brother
‎will find out that you and I had lunch?

‎Oros has been sentenced.

‎[tense music playing]

‎What did you say?

‎Like, what are you trying to say, Mbali?

‎After the trial,

‎someone saw him talking to the police.

‎So they figured he's the rat.

‎The order is for you, Zola.

‎They said you have to k*ll him.

‎[Zola sighs]

‎f*ck!

‎[breathing heavily]

‎Let him get away.

‎Make it look like you missed him.

‎As if you didn't see him.
‎Please, help him.

‎-No one has to know.
‎-I'll know.

‎You'll know.

‎And what if somebody else finds out?

‎Then they will k*ll me too.
‎Is that what you want?

‎-There has to be a way.
‎-It's the code, Mbali.

‎All right?

‎Once you've talked, then you become
‎a snitch. That's the problem.

‎You get k*lled, Mbali.

‎-A snitch gets k*lled.
‎-He's your friend. He's your friend.

‎Enough. Enough.

‎You've done your part.

‎[suspenseful music playing]

‎[upbeat music playing]

‎[knocks on door]

‎Hello, friend. What's up?

‎-I've got the cash, Brother.
‎-Who are you with?

‎Ah, one man.

‎Okay, come in.

‎[Sphelele] Thank you. [chuckles]

‎[humming, vocalizing]

‎-[pounding at door]
‎-[vocalizing continues]

‎Yeah, I'm coming, I'm coming, man.

‎[vocalizing]

‎My sister. How are you doing?

‎-Hi.
‎-Come in, come in, come in.

‎Sorry, I'm still busy in the kitchen.
‎But I'll be back.

‎[Mbali clears throat]

‎Listen, you'll be proud to know
‎that I have not touched a glass.

‎I am clean. I'm all good. I'm nice.

‎-Oros, I came here to...
‎-Hmm?

‎Uh...

‎I know, to check up on me, if I'm okay.
‎Listen, I'm all right, okay?

‎I'm doing okay. But thanks anyway.

‎[food simmering]

‎Oros, look, these people, uh...

‎Leadership thinks you're the rat.

‎-[cutlery clangs]
‎-[tense music playing]

‎Sorry?

‎Those guys broke my hand.

‎Did I say anything wrong at the trial?

‎I'm not talking about the trial.

‎They saw you talking to an officer.

‎Poli...

‎I don't know who that man is.

‎That as*h*le just showed up
‎asking me about a guy I don't know.

‎sh*t!

‎Oros, we don't have time.

‎They've sent Zola to get rid of you.

‎Right now.

‎f*ck...

‎-f*ck...
‎-You still have time to run.

‎-Please, please.
‎-I'm not going anywhere.

‎-I'm not going anywhere.
‎-Zola's on his way.

‎Actually, why are you meddling
‎in my business?

‎Huh?

‎I mean, first
‎you're so obsessed with getting us bail?

‎And then you get us out of prison?

‎And then you lie for me in the trial?

‎And now this?

‎[suspenseful music playing]

‎Actually, tell me, what's your story?

‎I'm just trying to do the right thing.

‎You're trying to do the right thing?

‎Hmm.

‎And how do you know for sure
‎that I'm not the rat?

‎I don't need to be sure.

‎This is not fair to you.
‎You can't just die for no reason.

‎It's not fair.

‎[clicking tongue] It's not fair.

‎[clicking tongue] It's not fair, right?

‎[sighs] You don't think it's fair.

‎-[gasps]
‎-No, you don't think it's fair.

‎Because it's you.

‎-[breathing shakily]
‎-You are the rat.

‎[discordant music playing]

‎[breathing deeply]

‎[suspenseful music playing]

‎Oros!

‎Oros!

‎[dogs barking in distance]

‎-[Oros] Move.
‎-[Mbali panting]

‎-Oros. [grunts]
‎-Zola.

‎Zola!

‎-Oros. Oros. [stammers]
‎-Shut up.

‎[both breathing heavily]

‎[in Sotho] Open.

‎[gasps, breathes shakily]

‎-Oros, Oros...
‎-[whispers, in English] Shut up. Get in.

‎[normal] Get in.

‎-Oh, come on, come on.
‎-[Sphelele] Thank you, gents.

‎-Now you're quitting?
‎-[Sphelele] Thank you, gents.

‎-It's been good.
‎-Just one more game.

‎I'll see you tomorrow, gents.
‎Thank you, thank you.

‎Hold it right there, my man. Listen,

‎you can't leave while you are
‎winning money from the guys.

‎[chuckles]

‎My man, you know what? I already got
‎all the money I needed, you see?

‎Right. You got all the money you need
‎by beating the gents,

‎and now you want to leave?

‎That will only lead to one thing.

‎You will be leaving here one day
‎and the guys will try to mug you.

‎Wait for me, I will go with you.
‎For now, let's continue playing.

‎-[gambler] The money is gone, boy.
‎-[laughter]

‎[bookie] It seems the young man
‎had changed his mind.

‎He will continue playing with us.

‎-[chattering] ‎-Ah, come on.

‎-[Sphelele] All right, guys. Let's go.
‎-Here we go. How much are you betting?

‎200, straight.

‎-Let's go, let's go.
‎-Come on, come on.

‎You think you're smart
‎because you're a lawyer? Huh?

‎You think you're smart
‎because you're a lawyer?

‎[breathing shakily]
‎You don't have to do this.

‎Yes, I have to!

‎What are you looking at?

‎-Damn it. You're full of sh*t.
‎-Oros. Oros.

‎Oros, I'm begging you.

‎You are full of sh*t.

‎Oros, I can explain everything.
‎Please listen.

‎-Keep quiet.
‎-Oros.

‎Keep quiet!

‎[blows]

‎-Come on!
‎-[gamblers exclaim, chuckle]

‎-You'll end up loving it, my boy.
‎-You can do this, boy.

‎-Give me more, give me more.
‎-Yeah, yeah, yeah. Let's do it.

‎-[chattering] ‎-400, straight.

‎-I love your courage. I love your courage.
‎-[chattering]

‎Let's clean this up here, guys.
‎Put your money in.

‎-There you go.
‎-You got this.

‎-Please, give it to me.
‎-[laughter]

‎[all exclaim]

‎[chattering, laughing]

‎My man, come on.
‎Please borrow me 100, man.

‎Well, my guy, uh...

‎-Look at the money I've already lost.
‎-What can you offer me?

‎-You know what, boy?
‎-Hmm?

‎[sighs]

‎I have... I have equipment, my man.

‎A deep fryer to make chips,
‎and a slicer. And I've got a grater. Yeah.

‎Okay, okay, say no more.

‎Bro, let's boost him. Boost my guy.

‎There you go. Now, place your bet.
‎Show us how you want to play.

‎-I'll pay you back, okay?
‎-Yes.

‎Place your bet. Place your bet, my guy.

‎[tense music playing]

‎[exclaims] You really played us, hey?

‎You played us like dice.
‎You... You're smart.

‎[chuckles] And you're smart, eh?

‎[laughs] But you're not, though.

‎But I'm also smart.

‎I'm also clever. Let me tell you.

‎And you know what they say?

‎If you're gonna be a smart-a*s,
‎you better be smart.

‎Otherwise, you're just an a*s.

‎A fine piece of a*s.

‎[music intensifying]

‎[sucks teeth]

‎[lips smack, sighs]

‎Before we deal with you,

‎don't you want to taste a man
‎for the last time?

‎-Oros, please, please...
‎-What are you begging for?

‎-Come on, Oros. Don't touch me!
‎-Hey, you.

‎You are shouting at me?
‎What are you doing?

‎-[Zola] Oros!
‎-[Mbali gasps]

‎-[Oros] Zola.
‎-Let her go.

‎-No. Uh-uh.
‎-We can talk about this.

‎-[shrieks]
‎-Zola, it's not me, it's her.

‎It doesn't have to end this way,
‎all right?

‎You and I, my friend,
‎we can get out of here, right now. Okay?

‎-Zola, don't listen...
‎-I'm not going anywhere. Do you hear me?

‎-I'm doing this for the brothers.
‎-[grunting]

‎f*ck the brothers, okay?

‎-f*ck the brothers!
‎-What do you mean?

‎-Listen! Listen! Oros!
‎-What do you mean?

‎-I am your brother!
‎-Shut up, you dog!

‎[all shouting, grunting]

‎-f*ck! f*ck!
‎-[Oros] f*ck! You shot me!

‎[Zola] Oros.

‎[Oros] You shot me.
‎[groans] You're full of sh*t.

‎-Oros.
‎-[Oros groaning]

‎We can figure this out. There's no need
‎to do what you're tying to do.

‎[tense music fades out]

‎[emotional music playing]

‎-[g*n hammer clicks] ‎-Oros!

‎[snaps fingers]

‎[dice clatter]

‎[no audible dialogue]

‎[emotional music continues]
