704
00:39:38,875 --> 00:39:40,075
I'm meeting a colleague.

705
00:39:45,625 --> 00:39:47,705
What, do you want me
to pay a cancellation fee?

706
00:39:47,791 --> 00:39:50,171
For fuck sakes.
I'm a charity case to you, aren't I?

707
00:39:50,250 --> 00:39:54,000
Oh, shut up, Chad!
All I've done is love you!

708
00:39:54,083 --> 00:39:55,583
All I've done is make room for you!

709
00:39:55,666 --> 00:39:56,496
Room?

710
00:39:56,583 --> 00:39:59,383
What room, when it's all about Riley's
career that pays for everything?

711
00:39:59,791 --> 00:40:01,251
I will not apologize

712
00:40:01,333 --> 00:40:04,293
for being able to afford a lifestyle
that we both wanted!

713
00:40:04,958 --> 00:40:06,378
What do you want from me?

714
00:40:06,458 --> 00:40:08,628
I was the one
who stood by you through your injury.

715
00:40:08,708 --> 00:40:11,578
I'm the one who helped you
get your life back on track.

716
00:40:11,666 --> 00:40:14,496
Back on track?
You never wanted a high school coach.

717
00:40:14,583 --> 00:40:15,583
[scoffs]

718
00:40:16,791 --> 00:40:20,041
Poor Chad fucking Morgan.

719
00:40:20,416 --> 00:40:23,626
Sleeping with every tramping student
that'll open her legs for him,

720
00:40:23,708 --> 00:40:27,578
just because he can't handle
being taken care of by a grown-ass woman!

721
00:40:27,666 --> 00:40:29,786
I never asked you 
to take care of me, Riley!

722
00:40:30,208 --> 00:40:33,038
Do you know what?
Just get the fuck out of my house!

723
00:40:33,583 --> 00:40:35,383
Get out! Get the fuck out of my house!

724
00:40:35,833 --> 00:40:37,083
Leave! Leave!

725
00:40:38,500 --> 00:40:39,540

728
00:40:55,333 --> 00:40:56,383
Baba?

729
00:40:57,375 --> 00:40:58,495
What would you do...

730
00:40:59,708 --> 00:41:02,128
if you could help out one person
that you love...

731
00:41:03,166 --> 00:41:06,416
but it would mean hurting someone
that you really care about?

732
00:41:09,958 --> 00:41:12,328
I guess it depends who it is.

733
00:41:12,750 --> 00:41:14,790
[in Zulu] But what's going on, Makhu?

734
00:41:22,375 --> 00:41:24,915
[in English] Solving our problems
is not your job, Puleng.

735
00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:26,170
We're the parents.

736
00:41:38,333 --> 00:41:39,793
Come here,
[in Zulu] my child.

737
00:41:41,250 --> 00:41:43,040
[in English] The trial will soon be over.

738
00:41:44,041 --> 00:41:45,461
And I'll be right back here.

739
00:41:46,958 --> 00:41:47,918
You'll see.

740
00:42:07,125 --> 00:42:08,995
I know I promised to save Dad, Siya.

741
00:42:11,666 --> 00:42:12,666
But...

742
00:42:13,833 --> 00:42:16,753
is it fair to mess up KB
and Fikile's life in the process?

743
00:42:27,041 --> 00:42:28,711
[Fikile] Do you ever
feel like a spectator?

744
00:42:29,583 --> 00:42:31,713
Watching your own life pass you by?

745
00:42:33,250 --> 00:42:34,580
[crying]

746
00:42:39,666 --> 00:42:42,286
I was four when I nearly drowned.

747
00:42:49,041 --> 00:42:50,291
My mom found me.

748
00:42:51,166 --> 00:42:53,666
And after that,
she signed me up for swimming classes.

749
00:42:58,625 --> 00:43:00,625
But lately, I'm questioning everything.

750
00:43:04,291 --> 00:43:06,331
Like, do I even really like swimming?

751
00:43:12,333 --> 00:43:14,043
[water splashing]

752
00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:21,330
[Chris] What were you doing?

753
00:43:21,791 --> 00:43:23,961
Trying to remember why I like the water.

754
00:43:26,583 --> 00:43:27,583
It's just...

755
00:43:28,083 --> 00:43:29,633
It's been a difficult week.

756
00:43:30,458 --> 00:43:32,168
Try a difficult few months.

757
00:43:33,375 --> 00:43:34,955
Ever since your birthday party.

758
00:43:37,583 --> 00:43:38,673
[sighs]

759
00:43:38,750 --> 00:43:40,670
Zama said something the other day.

760
00:43:40,750 --> 00:43:42,920
Apparently, Puleng's
had this fixation on you

761
00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:44,880
before she even moved to Parkhurst.

762
00:43:44,958 --> 00:43:47,328
She even used the word fixation.

763
00:43:47,416 --> 00:43:49,126
You met Puleng at your party, right?

764
00:43:49,208 --> 00:43:52,788
The next thing I know, she's transferred
schools and interviewing me at Parkhurst.

765
00:43:52,875 --> 00:43:53,915
No, wait.

766
00:43:55,208 --> 00:43:57,538
She was at the inter-house gala
with my bag.

767
00:43:57,625 --> 00:44:00,745
Then suddenly, she changes her surname,
and she cozies up to you.

768
00:44:00,833 --> 00:44:01,923
[sighs]

769
00:44:03,166 --> 00:44:05,456
I say we go to her locker,
see what we find there.

770
00:44:05,541 --> 00:44:06,421
No.

771
00:44:07,750 --> 00:44:09,830
If Puleng has a problem with me,

772
00:44:09,916 --> 00:44:11,286
she'll tell it to my face.

773
00:44:13,041 --> 00:44:14,171
[attorney] Your Worship,

774
00:44:14,250 --> 00:44:16,580
the defendant, Mr. Julius Khumalo,

775
00:44:16,666 --> 00:44:18,666
is being charged with assisting

776
00:44:18,750 --> 00:44:21,250
in the planning and performing of a crime

777
00:44:21,333 --> 00:44:23,293
against his own child,

778
00:44:23,708 --> 00:44:26,458
an infant by the name
of Phumelele Khumalo,

779
00:44:27,083 --> 00:44:31,423
in violation of Childcare Act 74 of 1983.

780
00:44:31,500 --> 00:44:32,830
[judge] How do you plead?

781
00:44:33,583 --> 00:44:34,633
Not guilty.

782
00:44:36,791 --> 00:44:39,581
Baby Khumalo was abducted
from the hospital

783
00:44:39,666 --> 00:44:41,996
mere hours after she was born.

784
00:44:42,416 --> 00:44:46,376
The state will prove
that on the 14th of May, 2003,

785
00:44:46,458 --> 00:44:50,128
three months before the birth
and abduction of baby Khumalo,

786
00:44:50,750 --> 00:44:51,670
that the defendant

787
00:44:51,750 --> 00:44:53,750
registered his child

788
00:44:54,791 --> 00:44:56,291
with an adoption agency,

789
00:44:57,000 --> 00:44:58,040
Point of Grace,

790
00:44:58,500 --> 00:45:01,830
an agency that has since
come under investigation

791
00:45:01,916 --> 00:45:04,786
for the participation
in child trafficking.

792
00:45:06,750 --> 00:45:08,790
The state will also prove

793
00:45:08,875 --> 00:45:10,495
that the defendant

794
00:45:11,041 --> 00:45:12,751
engaged with the agency

795
00:45:12,833 --> 00:45:15,213
with the specific intent

796
00:45:15,916 --> 00:45:17,706
to give up his own child.

797
00:45:19,291 --> 00:45:21,461
And that in the three months prior,

798
00:45:21,958 --> 00:45:23,328
told his wife

799
00:45:24,041 --> 00:45:25,671
to get an abortion.

800
00:45:25,750 --> 00:45:27,540
And despite her refusal...

801
00:45:33,541 --> 00:45:34,751
Here you go, sir.

802
00:45:38,750 --> 00:45:40,540
[Matla] Hey, Puleng.

803
00:45:41,291 --> 00:45:42,171
No school today?

804
00:45:43,375 --> 00:45:44,205
Of course.

805
00:45:45,166 --> 00:45:47,126
The trial is today. I'm sorry, my girl.

806
00:45:48,041 --> 00:45:49,501
But do you need a ride home?

807
00:45:50,375 --> 00:45:51,625
My driver can take you.

808
00:45:53,625 --> 00:45:56,035
Won't be necessary, sir. Thanks.

809
00:45:56,791 --> 00:45:57,921
Well, if you insist.

810
00:45:58,500 --> 00:45:59,630
But be careful.

811
00:46:00,125 --> 00:46:03,035
Little girls shouldn't wander alone
in this part of town.

812
00:46:09,375 --> 00:46:10,625
Why are you here, sir?

813
00:46:16,625 --> 00:46:20,205
I'm a defense attorney keeping tabs
on a case of interest for a client.

814
00:46:28,375 --> 00:46:29,535
Who was that?

815
00:46:32,375 --> 00:46:33,535
KB's dad.

816
00:46:33,625 --> 00:46:34,455

818
00:46:36,666 --> 00:46:39,246
I need to tell you the truth
about why I moved to Parkhurst.

00:46:41,666 --> 00:46:42,536

Can we finally settle this now?

824
00:47:08,250 --> 00:47:11,500
You didn't just come here 'cause you got
into trouble at your old school, did you?

825
00:47:12,750 --> 00:47:14,750
Now, I thought it was cute at first,

your obsession with me
since my birthday party.

I'm not obsessed with you.

You just don't understand the truth.

829
00:47:22,333 --> 00:47:23,543
Then tell me the truth!

contact, you've been sabotaging me.
