You brought Zama into our lives.
I blame you.
How did we get here?
I know who started the fire.
It was me.
And you.
And you. And you.
It was all of us, and that's why God is punishing us.
That's nonsense.
My car, it's all connected.
It's a sign from our mother.
Don't be ridiculous. This is clearly the work of the devil.
Maybe we should pray and ask God for forgiveness.
The problem is we have turned our backs on each other.
Mom won't stop taking and destroying
until we unite and talk to her.
When we get to the lodge, we will connect with Mom together.
Then let's hope Mom won't burn down any more houses.
I hope that makes you happy.
I wonder what she's doing now.
Sodom and Gomorrah.
Not Sodom and Gomorrah.
I must be the problem.
I need to get to the bottom of this
and find out why this happened.
Okay, great. We'll finally reconnect with Mom.
People like to talk.
What are you talking about?
Faithful God,
loving God,
Father God who always leaves us in awe with his wonders,
I am thankful that you have not forsaken me.
Like your word says in Luke chapter 8, verse 17,
that you're a God who reveals what's been concealed in the dark.
We are so grateful, Lord,
that from lost pensions to lost homes, Father,
I know you will restore.
We're praying. Please come and join us in prayer.
Do you know what the word of God says?
"When two or three people are gathered in prayer,
there am I in the midst of them."
Let's close our eyes.
Thank you for those words of prayer.
We're family.
What about that prayer?
What I'm saying is, everyone was invited to stay at the house.
What about us?
Look at what happened at the venue.
They just left the venue, and we didn't get to go to Konka.
You see. Don't you see what's happening?
They don't see me, which means they don't see you or Shaka.
No, man.
-Come along. -For what?
-Come with me. -What?
Come with me.
But do you see what I'm talking about?
Gin and tonic, then.
Obviously.
With your Robben Island security?
…a new apartment.
What?
Okay, then, if you're so happy,
let's go inside, and get your wife and your kids,
and tell them that you're full of shit.
It's December.
And they don't do lay-bys at Rich Mnisi.
So please pay me.
And I'm telling them about you and I…
…that you don't want me.
…with your people.
Okay.
And let them know what kind of person you are.
Dad.
What are you doing here?
I'm here to pitch you something.
Who is… What is she doing here?
Who?
The slay queen in the bushes.
You know that she's close to Beauty.
-You know what? -Regarding the burnt house.
-What's up, Tshepo? -Themba.
Dad.
What about Maphepha Ndaba?
What do you want to pitch?
Wait a minute, Sibusiso. I was here first, Dad. Stand in line.
What line?
You.
-Not now. What do you want? -I'm good. What's good with you?
I have everything we need for the ceremony tomorrow.
Tell me, how's your stomach?
My stomach?
They have medicine here to clear your bowels.
I know you get constipation from all that suburbia food.
What about in the bedroom? Don't you need help?
They have something here to help with your erection,
to improve your sex life.
Tumi, don't ruin your holiday by coming back.
Coming back won't help anything.
We'll talk later.
Dineo, you know we have a tumble dryer in this household?
Tell me, Dineo, have you heard from your insurance company?
They have to do an investigation
before they can pay out.
Uh, you do know that we have a tumble dryer, right?
Dineo told me they're launching an investigation into the cause of the fire.
-Really? -Yes.
If only they knew that I'm only left with that dress,
and I'm wearing someone else's gown.
I'll stay on the insurance company's back to ensure they investigate,
until they pay me out.
Let me help you.
Dineo, you are aware that it's Christmas?
How, Valencia?
I don't have a house.
…with us at the lodge.
-What? -Yes. These investigations…
I don't know.
I also don't know about that, Val.
Yeah, Dineo, think of Beauty.
She needs her mother because her due date is close.
Valencia, look at what I'm wearing.
That dress is the only thing I own.
Listen.
Take this and go and think about it.
Do you hear me, Vusi? I don't want her finding out the truth.
Listen--
Come here.
Take all of this and put it in the tumble dryer.
How, Vusi? Why are they investigating? What does she want us to do?
But elders,
you all know that Sun City is expensive.
This card is for those going to the lodge, and not a baecation.
It's not up to you.
It's about our beloved sister, Dineo, who I love so much.
I don't know if I'm going or not.
Sister, the fact that Valencia invited you to the lodge…
After all, we know how the Twala people are.
It's Christmas. We should be spending this time with Beauty.
It's okay.
We'll go together. We're coming back on Boxing Day.
Friend, let's go to Sandton.
We're going with her, or she'll finish the Twala money.
You're a wise woman.
You're beautiful.
Let's go, Shadrack.
Are you telling me…
-And the Sellos roaming around? -But no one saw her.
Pay her.
Val, is there no other solution?
No. Pay her. I don't want to see her in my house.
Let's slaughter this sheep for Mom.
I'm ready.
Siya, we need to go and communicate with Mom now.
But we've only just arrived.
I thought we could go on a game drive first,
check the minibar for alcohol,
and then maybe get a massage as well.
What?
You were the one rushing me to connect with Mom.
And now?
You know that my shoulder has been bothering me since 1994.
I don't want to be stressed talking to Mom.
We need to connect with Mom, okay?
Here's the plan.
Let me get everything together.
Then we'll meet at the boma in ten minutes.
The sitter tried to change him alone.
She ended up quitting.
Now there is a dry-cleaning bill I have to settle. Please watch him.
Uh, why must I watch him?
-All right, take him. -I can…
Everything will be fine.
He pooped.
Oh my goodness.
Thank goodness you're here.
I need to go back home.
Yeah.
And you must know that there's no signal here.
There's no signal here, and they've made a breakthrough in the investigation.
So, I'm going back home.
-Breakthrough? -Yes, Valencia.
Dineo, why don't you join Beauty and I at the spa…
How can I relax when they are trying to cheat me out of my money?
No, Valencia.
Maybe this is what I deserve for forcing Beauty into that baby launch.
No. The last time we tried this,
it came down like the Tower of Babylon.
You know that Beauty doesn't--
Valencia. You said I'd make all the decisions?
I did say that.
I have an idea.
Brother, can you see that this "rich aunt" life suits me?
Brother, you're drinking water?
No, man. What's going on?
Grace, I'm the one who started the fire at the house.
What was I supposed to do?
I was hungry, and the electricity was going on and off.
I didn't know what to do.
I just taped the main switch.
I'm not an electrician.
No, man!
-How would I have known-- -Shadrack!
If you love Dineo…
Repeat what?
Sister, Shadrack…
Shadrack said Beauty looks so ugly.
He thinks the baby must be a girl.
So I told him, "No, man."
You know what pregnant women are like.
It's okay. I have news for you.
Valencia and I are planning a surprise gender reveal party for Beauty.
I need your help.
Okay. Let's meet at the dining hall in ten minutes.
-I'm going to have a word with the chef. -I'm coming right now.
Why didn't I go to Rustenburg instead?
-Hello. -Hello to you too.
-You're Beautiful? -Omuhle who?
We're Tswanas.
-Dineo is waiting for us. Let's go. -Cover for me, brother.
What emergency?
Horniness, brother.
Horniness.
Let's go.
I hear you, Themba, but--
Dad, listen, on page 33, I've outlined everything.
It talks about children, child care services
for parents who are struggling with kids who are really naughty.
I hear you, Themba, but I don't have time to deal with your issues with Shaka.
I have to go and meet your uncle.
Listen, Dad, what I'm saying is that
I want to help you the same way that Sbu helped you.
I know that, but it's not a competition.
Yes, but what I'm--
-Oh my God. -What's she doing here?
I thought I was coming to a five-star, but it's a three.
Hey, slay queen, what are you doing here?
My banking app has been quiet for the whole day.
So I thought…
I told you not to test me.
What do you call those people again?
-I am? -She is?
So you want to market this place to cheating men?
Okay, if you take a look at the marketing plan,
I've added the social media presence. You'll see it on page…
-On page 97, here it is-- -Listen…
Let's go.
What about the meeting with Uncle Siya?
Wait a minute.
Oh no! Dineo.
Quickly. Let's go.
I've been trying to calm him down.
It means I'm gonna be a bad father.
Please help me, Mom?
Okay, my boy, before we get there,
we need you to call your gynae and find out the gender of the baby.
How will knowing the gender help us?
Look, how can we help you if we don't know what we're dealing with?
Knowing the gender won't help us with anything.
Beauty and I…
She'll never forgive me if I told you.
She'll never forgive us.
-How would I know? -Open your eyes.
Ma? Hello.
Please distract Beauty for a while.
Her mother and I are planning a surprise baby shower.
You said you haven't known her long. How is she now influencer for the lodge?
A lot.
These two seem to have jungle fever.
My father said be quiet.
Yes, Shadrack. Get the flowers and the big alphabets.
Yes, that spell out "baby." That's perfect.
He didn't complain. He just said, "Whatever you want."
Obviously.
We're going to bake a cake with the color of the gender inside.
What did you say?
But you've caught us out.
Valencia begged me to help her.
Go and rest.
Hello, bride.
Tell me, where is Vusi?
He left me?
His balls…
With what? Your words?
Words aren't gonna pay my rent.
Wow.
Val, where are you?
We went to town.
…for this insane baby shower. But we're on our way back.
You handled Zama. I'll handle Dineo. You'll see me when I get back, Vusi.
Oh my God.
Mom, I have a question.
With all due respect, are you sure that Vusi is related to us?
The way I see it, something is off.
Please give me a sign, Mom.
No, Ma, not that kind of sign.
Brother, I'm sorry.
Your problem is that you only think about yourself.
You said we'd do this together and that I should get everything together.
And I did. Yet you are nowhere to be found.
We can still do this. What's stopping us?
Carry on? How?
All the candles and sage have burned out.
My problem is that I trusted you.
You're not trustworthy.
Fine.
You sort out your own problems. I'll sort out mine.
I'm up to here with you. I swear on my mother, I don't need you.
This dog.
Dineo, that granny is annoying.
We worked all night.
I can't believe it.
…for this fire.
Last year we said no more secrets, right?
Zama is here.
You have very bad timing.
I need you to stay with Succulent.
Your sister Dineo likes slaves.
She's sent me to town to go get food coloring.
Town? So far away?
You want to risk your life with that Afrikaans man.
I'm tired of pretending that I care about baby showers.
Do you hear me?
If you don't help me, I'm gonna tell her the truth.
I told you I'm the one who burnt the house down,
and you said I shouldn't tell her.
-Oh. Uh-- -Take him.
You…
This year, we are braaing you, Succulent.
No, you're talking nonsense now.
What do you mean? You said Beauty told you that they met at the baby shower.
Dad said they're actually good friends.
Then the slay queen mentioned that her and Dad go way back. You see?
What do you mean? I know these things.
I know a cheater when I see one.
If you put it like that, I get it.
We need to tell Dad to get rid of this girl.
Before Mom finds out.
Excuse me.
Oh no.
We'll watch him for ten minutes.
Thank you.
What do we do when he acts like this, Aunt Grace?
Look at where he's biting you. Look now.
We're going to look crazy showing up to Dad with dinner.
Who knows what that slay queen will do by then?
Look at where he's biting you.
Come along, Succulent.
The lodge needed…
So I'm here to make money.
Or what?
My mother…
And so many presents claiming they're from Santa Claus.
I'm sure she low-key had a blesser.
Baby showers, gender reveals, and Christmas dinners.
Damn, you guys like events.
Vusi mentioned something about a gender reveal today.
I thought you didn't want to know the gender of your baby?
What's wrong?
She's so dramatic.
Uncle…
What's up?
I don't know anything.
I have to go.
To be honest, I was only helping.
I was just a spectator. Just like at a stadium.
I don't know anything. I was just helping.
The people behind this are Dineo and Valencia.
Uncle?
Sibusiso told them.
Okay. It's fine. I'll just…
Where's Beauty?
…after I mentioned something about a gender reveal.
What's happening?
I thought you weren't supposed to leave your baby with strangers?
Ouch.
Uh, brother…
Grace, where is Succulent?
He's with Sbu.
I want to say goodbye to him. Before Dineo kills me.
I don't want to die.
-You told her about the fire? -Worse.
Brother, just give me two minutes.
No, man! I just want Succulent, so I can say goodbye.
Dad, please open.
Someone please take this baby.
What's she doing here?
You haven't told her?
A man.
-Where is Succulent? -Uncle, please wait.
Listen here, Themba, give me back my Succulent before I get strangled.
Give him back his Succulent.
Don't you remember what happened last time?
-I blame you. -Me? Brother!
What did I tell you about the sheep?
-Where is he? -Sbu, now.
-Fine. -Let's go.
-I'll be back. -Damn Zulus!
-Let's go. -Don't leave me, brother!
Dad's having an affair with this one.
My goodness.
You're just standing there.
I knew I couldn't trust you.
I don't care about your tacky gender reveal, do you hear me?
What do you mean, tacky?
This one could burn everything, like she burnt your house.
Hey, Mavusana.
Not now, Siya.
Hey now, Valencia. You burnt my house!
You're a witch.
Shut up.
