[Zola groaning]
[Mbali grunts]
[Zola groaning]
[Crystal] What the f*ck were you thinking?
-My child is sleeping.
-[Mbali] We had nowhere else to go.
-[Zola groaning]
-[Mbali] Be strong.
Man, Zola, be strong!
[Zola panting]
-[Mbali breathing heavily]
-[Cici] Mom?
Baby.
Mommy's just helping this uncle, okay?
Go back to bed.
I'll be there right now, okay?
-[Cici] Okay.
-Okay.
[Zola whimpering]
[groaning]
[Mbali breathing heavily]
[Crystal] Ready?
[groaning loudly]
[groaning]
[breathing heavily]
[Mbali, Crystal speaking indistinctly]
[Moses] My blood...
-[members] ...is my brother's blood!
-[prison door rattles, slams]
{\an8}[breathing shakily]
{\an8}[sniffles]
{\an8}[phone clatters]
{\an8}[breathing shakily]
{\an8}How's Cici?
{\an8}[Crystal] Fine. She's finally asleep.
How did you get involved in this sh*t?
I went to give Zola
the order to k*ll Oros.
But Oros showed up.
You need to stop playing the go-between.
You're more useful to us alive than dead.
What are you doing?
You should get some rest.
It was a long night.
[breathes shakily]
[door opens]
-[Ntombi] Are you good?
-[door closes]
You're still up.
Why do you look drunk?
I'm sorry, Ntombi.
What for?
I thought I was fixing things.
We were playing there. I was winning...
Wait. You were winning?
Don't tell me you were gambling, Sphe.
-[stammers] Baby, I'm sorry.
-Wait.
How much?
How much?
All of it.
All of it, Sphe?
-All of it?
-Yes, and the equipment,
-the deep fryer for chips.
-[clicks tongue] Damn it.
-But, baby...
-Leave me alone.
Now listen here, brother.
Do you see that fleece blanket of yours?
It's going to help make you comfortable
there on the couch, you hear me?
Because you disgust me. [clicks tongue]
Ntombi.
-[melancholy music playing]
-[door closes]
I tried warning Oros.
I told him we could, um... run away,
but he didn't want to listen.
I'm sorry, Zola.
[inhales sharply, sighs]
[sobs softly]
Please.
Please don't go.
[tense music playing]
[Tau] It's not what I want.
It's who I want.
[breathing shakily]
[tense music playing]
[phone unlocks]
[shutter clicking]
[phone chimes]
[phone chimes]
-[gate rattles] -[dog barking]
[line ringing]
-[Agnes] You're working late.
-Hey.
Listen, man. Hey.
We need to talk. Seriously.
So, this guy, Setshaba Chauke,
he's a correctional officer
at your prison, right?
Yeah, he's one of my guys.
I think I might have something on him.
[gentle music playing]
[sighs]
Hi, baby.
[sighs]
[Ntombi] We are deep in debt.
Baby, I said I'll fix everything.
I promise you.
[Mbali] Good morning.
-Good morning.
-Is everything okay?
Where were you yesterday?
I don't owe you an explanation.
Okay, well... [clears throat]
I went to see him.
[Mbali] I know. And I told you
that Moses isn't who he pretends to be.
All I saw is a man
who is protecting himself in prison.
And I can respect that.
Respect?
You need to remember
who's older between me and you.
And don't forget that you
and your pregnant girlfriend
stay in our father's house.
-You're still a child here.
-Can't you see Moses is trying to help?
I don't want you
to be involved with this person.
Moses is not the same person
he was 18 years ago.
I'm also not the same person.
I'm old enough to think for myself.
And honestly, sis,
if you can work for him, why can't I?
Sphe, I just want what's best for you.
[scoffs] Yeah.
Me too.
[tense music playing]
My sister, please, let's move back a bit.
Please move back.
[reporter] In a shocking discovery
this morning,
police found the body of a man
{\an8}believed to be a part of the notorious
criminal organization, Brothers of Peace,
{\an8}right here outside our building.
Now, authorities confirm
that the case will be handled
with the utmost of urgency.
But we ask then,
isn't prevention better than cure?
The death penalty has been
brought back into public scrutiny
because of the recent events
from The Brothers of...
-[Agnes] You see, Tau?
-[sighs]
Look, listen, but I am trying...
Could you please stop telling me sh*t
and go out there and find Scarra?
Or tell me if you don't want to,
so I can arrange
for someone else to do this job.
-Yes, just give me time.
-[exhales sharply]
[glass shatters]
Find Scarra!
Perhaps the Brothers of Peace should
consider a new line of work
if this is the manner in which
they handle disputes.
[Moses] f*cking Scarra.
You know, even the stupid fools
and the dumbest of dumbest
thinks twice before doing anything.
Code or no code, we don't just
hang our dirty laundry in public.
You see, the cops will put pressure on us.
That f*cking Agnes is already
squeezing our asses. You'll see now.
There is a way for us
to get money fast and quick.
Nah.
We're not doing that nonsense here.
We're not dealing with drugs.
But we don't have a choice.
[anchor speaking indistinctly on TV]
[Moses sighs]
There's the boy. Hey, dude, hey, hey!
-[Sphelele] Uh-uh. Uh-uh.
-Where's the stuff now? Bring that here!
-Hey, piss off, you!
-And then?
-Here's the idiot!
-Is this him?
-That's him.
-Fellas, take everything...
-My guy, what's going on? What's this?
-Take everything. Take everything.
-What's going on?
-These brothers came to take everything.
Just hold on.
These brothers came to take their things.
-Even the stove?
-Everything, my guy.
-[customers clamoring] -Let go.
Let go of me, bro! Then go! Leave!
-Hey, hey...
-[all clamoring]
I will kick you.
-What's happening? What's happening?
-I'll kick you! Try me!
-What's your problem, man?
-Hey, man, this is your problem, not mine.
You got yourself into this mess.
[clicks tongue]
[gwijo song playing]
Ah, Sphe. What a nice surprise.
[chuckles]
I'm happy you came today, boy.
Yeah, eh? I needed someone
to talk to, you know?
Hey, man, that's fine.
I've got time, we can talk.
What, what's wrong?
Yeah, it's just that...
I found myself with a bit of money
in my pocket,
but now it's all gone, you see?
So, I don't know, maybe you could
set me up like we discussed?
[mysterious music playing]
You know, my boy,
what I can tell you is, um,
if you're looking for handouts,
that won't work with me.
Don't expect any special treatment
from me.
There's no special treatment here.
If you need a job, you need to work.
You take responsibility.
Got it?
Yeah, okay. I hear you, I hear you.
It was nice seeing you.
-[Sphelele] Sure.
-Sure.
You know, baby, uh, I just got
held up where I was coming from.
Things were just hectic.
By the time I got to the clinic,
they said you were already gone.
I'm sorry, my love. I'm...
Eh? Huh? [chuckles]
Oh, baby, wow. Oh, wow, baby.
So, what did they say, a boy or girl?
-I've decided it should be a surprise.
-[chuckles]
[engine revs]
Hold this.
-[clears throat]
-And who is this?
[Sphelele] I don't know, baby.
It might be Mbali's people.
Go inside, Ntombi.
[keys rattle]
You are Sphelele, right?
-And you are?
-Your job title is quite easy.
The people that I know,
they are well-known all over.
So I need someone to take this package.
That person is you.
Moses said if everything backfires,
everything will be on you.
Yeah.
[engine revs]
[elevator dings]
Mmm, you were swift to contact me.
Looks like you've been telling the truth.
We don't have Scarra's address yet.
No, but we do have a chance
to catch him red-handed.
"Aegis." What is that?
It's a cash-in-transit van.
I think they are planning a heist.
-All right. Can I leave now?
-No, no, no, no, just wait a bit.
This information is rubbish.
It's incomplete.
I need a date, time and location.
Where did you get this?
Friend at the NPA.
She can be our inside person.
These people know
that you're watching them,
and they also know that you can shut down
their operation at any given moment.
[Crystal] Who is she?
You know she'll only play along
if we keep her anonymous.
[scoffs] That sounds dangerous to me.
And how do you know
that she won't sell us out? Hmm?
Look, money talks.
She's done this kind of thing before,
okay? I've got stuff on her.
[faucet running, stops]
I don't know.
If you're planning something,
she can help us dig.
You do know the more people
who get involved in this,
the riskier it gets, right?
[sighs]
[people chattering]
[Moses] We've got the staff, we've got
the route, we've got the time shifts.
We need a powder man.
Get Zola in on this.
Are you sure about this NPA guy of yours?
We're solid. 100%.
I'm counting on you.
Let's get Scarra in on this thing.
Make sure everything happens in time.
Crystal, I just need to speak
to my brother quickly.
I'll catch up.
I wanted to talk to you about Sphelele.
Sphelele was here.
What's going on? Is he in trouble?
Yes, but whatever he asks you for,
don't give him a job.
Nothing.
Let's make things clear.
You don't make demands here.
Are we clear?
Get out of here.
[tense music playing]
No, what's this now, Crystal?
What's up with this up-and-down now?
Hey, Scarra, relax.
She's good. She's with us.
Moses says it's okay. Hey.
Crazy.
He's doing as he pleases,
making decisions without me.
Hmm?
Uh... All right, so, uh,
shields, tech force.
Tau requested a breach in confidentiality
on most major armored car companies.
He knows all the routes,
their clients, times of operation.
He even asked for reinforcements.
So, is your information reliable
or unreliable?
My contact can let us know
which sides are being surveilled
and when the cops are in action.
But I will need the date
and location for this job, all right?
Just to make sure
that the cops aren't there.
This contact of yours...
What do they want?
How much ching will it cost?
Look here, Scarra, you know how it goes.
Okay? Like always, we are equals.
[Scarra] Don't you dare piss me off.
My guys are the ones doing all the work,
now you are saying we've got to share
the spoils with these two b*tches?
-You must be out of your...
-Relax. Hold on, man, relax!
You must be crazy, you.
She and her contact will work with us.
That's what Moses said.
And that's the end of the story,
do you hear me?
-I can share my...
-Hey!
That's how it goes.
I've seen b*tches like you come and go
long before you opened your legs.
I will choose my own powder man.
Even if... Even if this job goes well,
I'll even double the money.
-Don't talk sh*t to me!
-Hey, piss off!
Stop talking sh*t to me,
do you understand me?
Your time is almost up.
I'm sugar hot dog, munch nut.
I'm looking out for my guys first,
not your wh*re friends, you b*tch!
[slurps, kisses]
We're done here.
[reporter] The death penalty,
liberals call it inhumane.
It doesn't deter crime
and violates the right to life.
How many more innocent
-mothers and children must die...
-[knocking on door]
...before crime is brought under control?
What is your view on this?
Should the public fight
to reinstate the death penalty
as a deterrent to violent crime?
A safeguard for society
-and a means of restoring moral order?
-Come in.
[newscast jingle playing]
[reporter] And in sports news,
this seems to be the best Bafana Bafana
team since they last won the cup.
They really have a shot this year.
James, over to you
for more sports updates.
-[sighs] -[TV turns off]
You saved my life, Zola.
I'm sorry about Oros.
[sighs]
[sighs]
[emotional music playing]
[Mbali] Hello, sir.
[speaking indistinctly]
[Zola] He didn't know what he was doing.
He turned on you.
[sighs] Okay.
Hey! Don't get off. Don't get off.
Don't get off. There's cameras around.
[Sphelele clears throat]
How's it?
-Hi, how's it? I'm good.
-Yeah.
-[Chauke] Be quick. Be quick. Be quick.
-Yeah.
Also, tell Moses
this package is coming from Sphelele.
Oh, he knows about it, don't worry.
Look. Don't move. Just stay in the car.
-I'll be right back.
-Yeah, no problem.
-See you, boy.
-Okay.
-[Moses] What's gotten into Scarra?
-[Crystal] I don't know.
[Moses] f*ck it.
The split has always been 50-50.
He says he's got his own guy,
so Zola's out.
He's in. They must compete
for that position if they have to.
Let the best man win.
You tell Scarra that the cut
stays the f*cking same.
Yeah. Hey, man, look.
-Sure.
-Listen, here, man.
The wardens want to speak to you outside.
-We need to go and see them.
-I'm coming with you.
-[Moses] No. It's okay.
-[Nyaniso] No, no, no. Him.
-Let's go, man.
-Okay.
[Chauke] Sister boss...
-Forgive me, forgive me, I won't...
-[chains rattling]
[groaning] Please.
I'm begging you. Please, sister boss.
I thought we had an agreement
that we wouldn't do this at all?
People are being punished
for your actions.
What actions are those?
You're corrupting my officers.
Recognize him?
Corrupt piece of sh*t.
You say he's corrupt,
knowing very well that you...
-You are the one who's corrupt!
-Hey! Hey!
-You know what you did!
-Hey!
We had an agreement, you and I.
Do you want to tell your friends
what our agreement is?
-Please don't do this, Warden.
-You b*ll s*ck.
You go behind my back
and operate on my turf? Huh?
In my prison? Huh?
-Can we please talk, Agnes?
-Hey!
-I don't play those games.
-Please, Agnes.
-I don't play games. I don't play games.
-Agnes, please. Please, let's talk.
-I don't play with inmates.
-Agnes!
I don't play with inmates.
I don't play with nutsacks.
-Please, Agnes.
-[Chauke breathing heavily]
Sister boss, sister boss. [screaming]
-[blows landing]
-[screaming continues]
-Agnes!
-[blows landing]
[blood dripping]
[Chauke screams]
[tense music playing]
[engine starts]
[breathing heavily]
[exclaims]
f*ck.
Bro, what are you doing here?
Sorry, sis, but I got rid of those things.
I-I didn't know what to do.
Those guys were looking at me,
and walking towards here.
I saw the drain. I threw everything away.
What are you talking about?
What's going on?
-You did what?
-You think maybe I should go speak to...
[Crystal] No. You should leave.
You shouldn't even be here
in the first place. Go.
Yeah, okay.
[Mbali] Bro.
-sh*t.
-[engine starts]
Damn it.
I told him not to get involved
in this drug sh*t.
Drugs? Crystal, drugs?
Gaz'lam is not about drugs.
-What the...
-I know!
I know.
Moses is desperate.
Okay, so what does this mean now?
How much trouble is this boy in?
[Crystal] Either he pays back the cocaine
he lost, or he pays with his life.
[emotional music playing]
[knocking on door]
-[knocking continues]
-[door opens]
Sister.
I've been knocking, sis.
So, tell me, dude...
How bad is it?
Brother, either we pay back
the money or they will k*ll you.
Listen, in the next few days,
there are some things
that are going to happen
that are gonna help us
get out of this mess.
But if that phone rings, Sphelele...
you use cash only.
You take Ntombi and you guys disappear.
[Scarra gasps] Here's my guy. [exclaims]
Rashi, my guy! Rashi!
Scarra, my guy, I've got you.
Look how beautiful this b*mb looks.
Look at the b*mb, it's beautiful.
And look at that one.
Huh? Look at that. Huh?
You and Moses wanted to bring me
a powder man that's dizzy. Hmm?
A powder man that doesn't
have anything interesting.
What do you know? When you hear "powder,"
you're probably thinking
we are talking about ocean scent.
No, man. Huh?
You think we are playing over here?
You think when I'm talking about powder,
I'm talking about what?
Talking about baby powder?
No, no, this is a competition.
Look at my guy.
Hmm?
[thrilling music playing]
[chuckles]
Scarra!
Bangla! [imitates drums, exclaims]
[chuckles]
My guy.
[Zola] He's too close.
-[Scarra] Ah, sh*t!
-[Crystal] sh*t!
[Scarra groaning] Ah, sh*t! sh*t, sh*t!
-Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! [coughs]
-[birds squawking]
-This guy...
-sh*t!
This Bangladesh guy of yours... [groans]
-[person 1 laughs]
-[person 2 chuckles]
[Scarra] Shh...
You still want me
to set it up for you, then?
Or are you still fumbling
with your nonsense?
-[laughs]
-[Scarra] It's that dog, hey, you!
Hey, Lucky Dube, come here!
I'll beat you up. Come here. Piss off!
Do you see what you've done here?
Do you see what you've done here?
You like to f*ck me around!
You are f*cking around!
Hey.
-I couldn't get ahold of you.
-[Scarra] Open your mouth...
I was meeting with my NPA contact. We...
[Scarra] You f*ck me around, now...
I might be good for this.
[Crystal] Quentin Abrahams.
[Scarra] Open your mouth.
Stop f*cking around.
That's one of Scarra's fake names.
Scarra was planning to leave the country.
To Lagos.
Are you telling me
that he was planning to do the heist,
and then take the money
and leave the country?
I'll f*cking k*ll him.
Yeah, but who do we take this to?
With Moses in The Hole,
the Brotherhood is vulnerable.
What if they side with Scarra?
I don't know.
If he gets arrested?
Are you asking me to snitch?
Are you f*cking asking me to snitch?
We don't snitch.
I mean, if they knew what we were
talking about right now, I'd be f*cking...
He's the traitor.
[Mbali] Okay, you know the ins and outs
of everything.
You're the one that's put in all the work.
You're the brains, Mama.
We're the brains, Mama.
[sighs] sh*t.
[sighs]
Hi, hello.
Yes, I have some information
on, um, an escaped prisoner.
[stammers] He goes by the name of Scarra.
[breathing heavily]
[amapiano music playing]
Yes, girl. You sexy thing.
How's it going, my guys? Yes.
You, you still don't want me
dating your sister...
It's okay, my brother.
-Salute, salute, salute.
-[all] Salute.
We were just talking about you.
Where were you?
Yeah, my man. Yeah, my man.
I heard you almost got shot
two or three times.
You know what, I'm annoyed by
this stupid guy in the wheelchair.
-[all laugh] -Look at him.
Please hold this for me, baby.
Hey, I'm watching you.
Ah, I'm not going there to f*ck someone.
I'm just going there to pee.
-Wolele!
-Wolele!
[people chattering]
[Scarra murmuring]
[amapiano music continues]
[vocalizing]
[siren wailing]
Hey, hey, hey, everybody,
get down, get down.
[people shouting]
-[g*nshots] -[people shouting]
-[g*nshots continue]
-[officer 1] Hey! Hey, freeze!
[dramatic music playing]
Hey, hey, hey, hey! Stop! Stop!
[g*nsh*t]
-[door breaks]
-[officer 2] Police!
Come, come, come, come. Let's go!
[siren wailing]
[g*nsh*t]
[shushes]
Old man, old man, under the bed.
Under the bed. Granny, come, come here.
Come, come.
Move, Granny, move, move. [shushes]
Shh. Listen, here, Granny.
Now we are going to sleep. Okay? Right?
-Let's go. Let's go. Climb in.
-[g*nshots]
Climb in, Granny. Shh.
[breathing heavily]
[people screaming in distance]
Go that side. Go that side.
Under the blanket.
Under the blanket. Sleep now. Shh.
[tense music playing]
[door opens]
[Tau chuckles]
It's nice here, huh? Hmm?
Huh?
[breathing heavily]
You pig. Let's go. It's over.
I think that a... a
small toast is in order.
-What do you say?
-No.
[chuckles]
I'll drink on your behalf then. [laughs]
You know, I would pay anything
to see that look on his face again.
I swear.
-Priceless! [laughs]
-You got Scarra.
We're done here.
[Tau] Are you sure
you don't want to work with us?
Take this.
[laughs]
That's everything on you.
-You're free to go.
-My brother's case docket?
Huh? [laughing]
"My bro..."
[stammers] I never opened one, hey.
You know, I mean...
[laughing] Look at your face.
[suspenseful music playing]
We are most relieved to inform you
that the notorious fugitive
and major criminal, Scarra,
has been arrested.
The mastermind behind the recent string
of cash-in-transit heists
is back in jail, where he belongs.
In position.
Prosecutor in position.
[exhales]
[Crystal] Standby. It's payday.
Scarra's capture, uh, came as a result
of, uh, thorough police investigations.
[officer 1] Do you think we will make it
this year, man?
-We're qualifying, without a doubt.
-[laughs]
-You see these young boys...
-Hey, what's going on over there?
[officer 2] You see now,
I don't like such things.
Go, go, go. Go.
Let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go!
-Get out of the car. Don't overthink it!
-Reverse the car.
-I'm reversing, but it's not working.
-Get out of the car!
Get out! Get out, you b*tch!
[officer 1] f*ck.
They have my family, man.
-Let's not do anything risky.
-Get out of the car! Don't think about it.
Get out!
Now we are able to assure the public
that the days of Gaz'lam are numbered.
On the ground! Lie down! Lie down!
-Oh, my God...
-On the ground!
[Zola] All right, everybody!
It's strapped on! Get down!
-Detective Tau!
-[clamoring]
-Detective Tau?
-Yes, please.
Can you elaborate on the reports
that Scarra was cornered
and he's responsible for the multiple
deaths of police officers?
We are working very hard
to clean up our streets,
and now that we have
the mastermind behind bars,
the cash-in-transit heists
will come to an end.
Hey. You think about your family, huh?
[sobbing]
[thug] Down, down, down, down.
Don't move. Down, down, down.
[Zola] Let's go, let's go, let's go!
[Tau] In fact, Scarra was planning a heist
when we arrested him.
-[phones chiming]
-[all murmuring]
[Tau] So, you see,
we put an end to that plan.
-And we have now...
-[reporter 1] Detective.
Detective, there is live video footage
of a heist happening right at this moment.
-[reporter 2] We need answers.
-[reporters clamoring]
[reporter 3] Detective!
Um, sorry, ladies and gentlemen.
This, uh, conference has come to an end.
[clamoring continues]
How are we supposed to believe
and have proper conversations?
[breathing heavily]
[Crystal, Zola chuckle]
sh*t.
Mbali, your plan worked.
The photos worked.
-No one got shot! We f*cking did it!
-[Zola] Whoo!
It worked, baby, it worked! Whoo! [laughs]
-[exhales]
-There's only one problem.
What?
-How do we spend five million rand?
-[exclaims]
-Come on!
-[laughing]
-[upbeat music playing]
-[Crystal] Whoo!
Whoo!
-Let me help you.
-Uh-uh, hold on.
You see, I have a system going here
and it's working.
[chuckles] Okay.
Tell me, Zola,
how are you gonna spend your money?
Mmm, let's see.
Um, dumplings.
[Mbali chuckles]
Oxtail.
-Hmm.
-Seven colors.
-[chuckles]
-Oxtail is so delicious.
But it is fatty.
Too indulgent.
Oh, well, you know what they say
about indulgence.
What do they say?
You have to enjoy it slowly.
I like to take my...
[romantic music playing]
...my time with things.
[Zola] I think I'm falling for you.
