Good morning my neighbours!
Good morning Port Harcourt!
Good morning my neighbours!
- Good mo...
- Desmond!
Desmond what is wrong with you?
- Are you awake?
- No I'm still asleep.
What kind of nonsense is this?
Why are you disturbing the whole neighbourhood?
I'm just happy and am greeting my neighbours
because I'm happy.
What kind of nonsense is that?
Desmond when you you wake up in the morning
the first thing you should do is go down on your kneels,
thank God for making it possible
for you to see another day.
Not by standing at the window and shouting down this house.
All right true. I have to pray it's true.
Besides today is first day of my one month leave.
- It's true.
- That is why you should go on your knees and thank him.
It's okay. Come down let's pray.
- Let's pray.
- You and who?
Let's pray.
- In the name of the father, son and holy spi...
- Desmond!
- You are interrupting me. God... What?
- Desmond!
Desmond! When you want to pray the first thing you should do
is start with praise and worship.
Which church is that?
If I tell you I love you God, my money is your own.
- Boss. Please don't do this please.
- What's wrong with you? I am just washing the plates.
- Boss please, let me do it, it's my job.
- Cool down, I will do this don't worry
just go and do what you are doing.
- No boss, madam will not be happy.
- I said go and sweep!
- Please sir. Please sir, let me do it...
- Let me just do this!
Boss please. Madam will not be happy if she sees you doing
this. Please.
- Go and sweep!
- Desmond what are you doing?
- Dishes.
- Is it your duty to wash the plates?
- Desmond. I'm asking you.
- Yes you know I have been doing it.
- I just want to help her out.
- What kind of stupid help is that?
Don't you realize you are the man of this house?
- But there's nothing wrong in doing the dishes.
- There's everything wrong with doing the dishes.
- That is why we got a maid.
- Madam that is what I told him but he wouldn't...
Will you shut up!
- Oh, my husband is now your mate!
- Am I your mate? Tell her.
- No.
- Is he your mate? Keep quiet...
Infact you get out of this place. If you had done your job
he would not.
I don't know why I am paying you.
Sweep you can not sweep, clean you cannot clean.
My husband will be busy washing the plates on your behalf
and cleaning the house
yet I'm paying you, why am I paying you!
Why am I paying you! Spending and wasting my money!
My friend get out of that place!
Where's this girl from?
Come to tell me, am... am I your mate?
- Desmond. Why do you like embrassing me?
- How am I embrassing you?
I'm washing and cleaning the dishes. How is that
embrassment?
It's... Every bit of your action is an embrassment!
Why would you be washing the plates when we have somebody
who is supposed to this.
And can we pay her? Let me explain something to you.
I don't think I am a problem the problem is you.
Ever since we got this maid, morning, afternoon, night,
you are angry.
At night you are angry, dawn you are angry.
Before we got the maid, trouble, when we got the maid
trouble.
- You are the problem.
- Desmond.
- Desmond!
- That's my name.
- You are my problem.
- Add my surname.
What stupid surname do you have?
How much can your surname bring?
Can you walk into any place with your surname?
Do you know what name are doing out there?
Hi my name is Mr. Mesan. It works.
- Desmond.
- Yes.
My friend's husband just bought her a car,
I saw it on instagram. That is what real men do.
Chioma has gone abroad relocated by her husband.
My own husband is still here washing plates!
Should I be jubilating!
- Chioma is in America.
- Yes!
- It's a lie.
- And you are here, what do you mean by it's a lie?
My friend go and drop that spoon!
Sorry ma. I don't like it when I see you angry,
baby just cool down okay.
As long as remain poor and as long as you don't have sense!
I will continue to be unhappy.
Do you want me to relocate you?
We can go to Ghana.
- Baby let's...
- You want me to go to Ghana by road.
- Can you afford to pay for a flight?
- Of course, how would you get to Ghana if not by road.
The problem with you is that you don't know where to draw
the line in your numerous lies!
You get so confused that you don't even know when you tell
the same lie over and over again.
- I don't like it.
- I am not lying I was there but I didn't see it...
Just stop it! Stop it! I don't like it when people try to
play on my intelligence please.
You should have called me that you couldn't make it
rather than...
Making me go out there looking like a cheap prostitute
waiting for a client.
Okay, fine.
I lied.
Sly you are just a bastard.
- Is it another woman?
- No. It's business.
Look baby I'm sorry okay.
It won't happen again.
You know our wedding anniversary is in two weeks,
let me make it up to you.
I was thinking we should go for a vacation with your
sisters, how about that?
Vacation? With my sisters.
- Yea.
- Seriously?
- Of course.
- You're not going to take back your words?
- Never.
- Yes! I will love it!
You know I have always wanted to spend time with my sisters
you know share special moments.
It's more like reuniting with them.
It's been a while.
- Yea I know. The last time was a year
ago on our wedding day. - Yes.
- But I pray they don't decline.
- Why don't you call them first.
I'm thinking of making it like a family thing with their
husbands and all.
- Oh my God, it's going to be perfect.
- Make the calls I will think of a resort
and make the reservation, okay.
- Thank you honey.
- You are welcome. Anything for my sweetheart.
- So go make the calls.
- Yes.
Honey, honestly if you know all the atrocities that girl
confessed to me that she committed.
- You will not call her your friend again.
- Are you serious?
Do you know she was a thief?
A real armed robber. As in she was in a gang.
- Yes.
- Deliah.
Yes Deliah.
She confessed everything to me with confidence.
Do you know she has had series of abortions from all these
illicit affairs she has with her various sugar daddies.
How do you think she was able to pay her way through
university?
But she wasn't all lucky. Do you know one of her abortions
went wrong and that damaged her womb.
That's the reason for her childlessness and her huband does
not even know a thing.
- Oh my God, poor Isaac.
- Yes poor Isaac.
Now she's running from one church to another
seeking miracles.
Not even letting the guy know that she does not have a
womb anymore.
She thinks God is stupid enough to give her another womb
after she has destroyed the first one he gave
her with her recklessness.
My God poor Deliah so this is what my friend
has been going through.
- You need to know.
- But why will she confess this to you?
- You are neither a pastor nor a priest. Why you?
- Perhaps she needed someone to confide in, you know.
I think maybe frustrations but baby this is a secret you
can't tell anybody just keep it to yourself.
You trust me.
It's Louisa.
- Hi Louisa.
- Hey sis. I'm good.
- How's Abuja?
- We are fine. Abuja is fine.
- We give God the glory. How is Sly?
- My husband is fine.
- How is Melvin, how is junior?
- They are all fine.
- Okay sis. we are planning a vacation for us.
- Really? A vacation?
My God this is so splendid.
Oh your wedding anniversary.
The whole idea of this vacation is just for us to come
together you know with our husbands
- you know some form of reunion you know.
- Oh my God! This is so exciting.
- Yes, yes of course my husband is in town.
- Well I'm going to call Becky once I am done talking to you.
Oh my God... So where are you planning this vacation?
Lagos?
You're bringing it to me? Oh this is so exciting
I can't wait.
Don't forget to call sister Becky. Make sure she brings that
clown husband of hers.
Yes, yes, yes.
Of course we're in.
- Yes. Okay. I will see you around.
- Okay. All right. My regards to Melvin.
- Bye.
- Okay bye bye.
- So what hap...
- Baby it's a vacation!
- When, are we going?
- I don't know. She's going to call me and let me know.
-But we are all in
-Yes.
- Oh baby.
- God knows I need a vacation.
Oh me too.
This is going to be so wonderful.
Desmond, Desmond, how many...
Is this right place to be shave?
- Ha ha.
- What is ha ha? Is it right?
Why are you sitting at the dinning and shaving?
- I'm sorry, I forgot and all...
- Excuse me?
I started in the bathroom and I ended up here,
I don't know how.
You don't know how? How do you think that my guests would
have felt if they walked in here and saw my husband shaving?
- You have guests? Which guests? Which guests?
- Desmond.
Sorry.
Louisa.
- Ha Louisa.
- Is that your sister?
I'm fine. How are you?
It's been a while you know.
How is your husband?
Oh you know you married well.
My darling everything is okay. He's on leave, a month leave
so he's just been up and down the house all up in my face.
Oh really?
I know your anniversary is next week.
That sounds like fun you know.
Yea.
Three of us. A gateaway, okay.
I will inform my husband about it and I will
get back to you.
Bye.
- But I said I wanted to talk to her.
- For what, why?
They're having a getaway for their anniversary and she
thinks that all of us Louisa, Nadia and myself
we should come with our husbands.
I think it's going to be fun, a lot of fun.
What's all that smile about? We are not going.
Well if you say so.
Wait, wait.
- Why are we not going?
- Isn't it obvious?
- You want me to go there and embrass myself?
- What do you mean embrass yourself?
What do you mean embrass myself?
How did I.. how can I even make that trip?
All my sisters are doing better than me. They are married to
good men, rich men and I will go there and embrass myself.
Oh you want Nadia to remind me of how badly
married right? That is it!
Rebecca money is not everything.
Desmond that is every poor man's lie to himself.
Money is everything.
Desmond.
- Desmond.
- What is it?
Hello.
Yes, but I will be a bit late because our flight is slated
for 4 pm it means we will be arriving quite late.
No no it's okay I don't know what's wrong with all these
airlines you know how they are?
So... Nadia doesn't have a problem, she doesn't have any
problem. Her house is just a stone throw from the place.
I am going to see you guys soon... What's the name of the
resort again?
Okay. Blue waters, I get it.
Blue waters resort. I will see you soon.
Babe let me call you back.
He will sit down and eat all the food in the house.
I don't even know the type of man that I married.
He would not bring any form of money for support and then he
ends up eating all the food in the house.
Sometimes it's just better to remain to single than to be
married to some kind of men.
What kind of some miserable life is this?
Goat. It's better to be single.
What is this?
Where do you think we are going?
- What... you don't like what I am wearing?
- Of course! I don't like it.
- Pink, white, what if, what colour... what is this?
- I am going to wear it.
What do you want to do?
Oh my God.
Desmond.
What... I'm the man of this house.
Can you, can you say it now in a more serious way?
- I am the man of this house.
- Good.
Thank you ma.
- You see this?
- Yes.
This is so wonderful baby.
- Baby this is home away from home.
- Oh you can say that again.
- This is so nice.
- Yes.
- I'm just glad you love the place.
- I do.
Yes, we are going to have so much fun.
I am sure about that.
- Oh I can't wait to see my sisters.
- I know.
- Oh my God it's been ages.
- I know right.
- Nadia!
- Sly!
Sly!
- You look great.
- You look handsome.
Yes, she's feeding me with eba, ponmo. Sly!
What's up brother?
Common guy you are looking like a million dollars.
- Hey! Hi Sly.
- Uncle Melvin.
- Louisa. How are you? Oh my God you look beautiful.
- Thank you.
- Now I see where Sly's money is going.
- Stop that. Don't...
Oh my God... Sly thanks for pulling this together.
This place is beautiful.
- Oh common this is nothing.
- Wow!
You know it shouldn't always be work, sometimes you take
time off relax and have fun you know.
That's what I say boss I was going to call you and tell you
that.
- Really?
- Yes but you beat me to it. Oh my God.
- Wow.
- What about sister Becky?
The last time I tried to call them her number
wasn't going through.
- The flight is for 4 pm they should be here by now.
- Their flight? Did you give them money for flight ticket?
- This is women talk.
- Sly!
How much is flight ticket that they won't be able
to afford it?
- Oops... fantastic sister.
- Sis.
Let me try her number again maybe they should
be on their way.
Let's just go to the reception. You can call them later.
- Wow. Look at you.
- I'm glad you like it here.
My spirit told me about this bus I just don't know why I
entered this vehicle.
What's wrong with the bus?
- Check the battery.
- Why didn't you check the car before we left the park?
Ordinary Lagos here someone will use the whole day to get
there.
- I don't like problems.
- Baby.
- Ha, ha what is it?
- My stomach, my stomach is making funny sounds.
- Like I want to use the toilet.
- Why won't your stomach make funny sounds!
You were busy eating every little thing you saw.
Desmond, Desmond.
Bear it... just hold it.
Very soon we'll be in Lagos.
- Hello.
- Hello sis. Yes Nadia and her husband just got here.
Our flight was delayed one hour.
I don't know, you know how these airlines are.
I really don't know what the problem is.
It happens like that all the time, you know how it is.
That place is so noisy.
The noise? Oh it's a fan. I am standing in front of a fan.
- But have you been able to reschedule your flight?
- Yes. Don't worry, don't worry dear. I will see you soon.
- I just pray they don't delay the flight any longer.
- It's a shame.
- Okay but wait... we are waiting for you okay.

Driver is the place still far?
Not really... Just about 45 minutes drive.
Desmond but I warned you when you were busy eating
everything that you...
You woke up this morning and you chose to start eating the
wrong things.
What is this?
Desmond don't go and embrass me infront of my sisters.

- Okay. Okay. I'll see you guys.
Okay bye.
Melv.
Let's go.
Sorry guys.
Guys I want to apologize for what happened earlier on. Today
has been one horrible experience for me.
It's okay man.
- We are glad you are better.
- Yea I won't be here if I wasn't better.
- They took me to the resort clinlic and I'm fine.
- That's great. Very heartlifting.
Well I think you should be more careful with what you eat
next time.
This is the most embarrassing moment one could
encounter on a trip.
- Very embarrassing.
- Running stomach, very terrible.
- It could leave one very hopeless and shattered.
- Yea you can say it out loud my dear.
I'm not going waste time on any of my enemies.
Well, I want to officially welcome everyone here for the
vacation.
I mean we all know why...
- Yo, where is your manners man?
- Melvin.
- He doesn't have any manners.
- It's okay Melvin. It's okay.
- I don't have manners.
- As I was saying...
Melvin. Like I was saying!
We all know why we are here.
But apart from that we are here to have fun, relax and bond
with each other.
It has always been my wife's wish for this to happen but I
kept procrastinating and
procrastinating due to my very busy schedule but I'm happy
we are finally here.
So ladies and gentlemen there's so much fun out there and I
say we go catch it.
- Yes!
- Pass me the wine please.
Yea. Here you go.
- Here you go baby.
- Thank you baby.
Pass it on.
So...
Desmond.
The medicine they gave me is now coming out.
- To one happy family.
- To one happy family.
To us.
- Cheers guys.
- Cheers.
Cheers.
Let me tell you, Melvin is a very very loving husband and a
caring father.
Infact I think I'm married to one of the best man in the
entire world if not the best man.
Well except for the fact that his family people are
pressurising you to give him another child.
- Who told you that?
- Melvin did.
It's nothing serious.
Yes... Of course it shouldn't be anything serious.
I mean you already have a son.
Do you know what a son is?
Like a king.
Listen all these pressures from the family people whatever
are putting you under
it will die off soon you know as long as you have a child if
God thinks you need a child fine
but if he doesn't even give you, you already have more than
enough so you don't have anything to worry about okay.
Sister Becky has spoken.
Thank you.
So apart from Desmond embrassing himself in public what else
have you been going through?
Desmond is fine. We are fine. We are doing very good.
As a matter of fact, we... he... got promoted recently.
Yea.
- Really?
- To the position of a general manager.
- Really?
- Yes.
- That's nice.
- Congratulations.
- That's why they gave him the leave anyway.
- Oh my God.
- That's so nice.
- Thank you.
- Anyways so this vacation is actually necessary.
- Yes.
- Yes darling.
- To us.
- More promotions coming.
- Amen.
Am sure you guys are wondering why I called you out and left
the ladies out.
- Yea I have been thinking.
- Well it's because I want them to have time for themselves
and have their sisterly bonding since they have craving for
that for a while.
And as men and in-laws I want whatever we discuss here to
stay here.
I can't agree with you any less Sly.
Infact I give you a kudos.
- We need time to discuss some personal business you know.
- That's good thinking my brother.
Well since I've made myself clear on that our businesses,
the challenges we are facing, how we can help each other
in growing our business.
Well for me I will love to help in that regard since we are
one by virtue of our marriage.
Let's start with you Desmond.
- Yea.
- What challanges are you facing?
- With my wife?
- In your entire life like...
- My life is my wife.
- We are talking about your business.
It's a long story.
So this guy saw me holding a chicken then he asked me is
this a chicken? I said no it's a goat.
- I'm glad you are having a good time with your sisters.
- Oh yes I am. I'm so excited.
Having my sisters here for the first night is so awesome.
Thank you so much honey.
- Common anything for my sweetheart. I'm glad you are happy.
- Yes I am.
Come here.
Honestly baby me I don't know how your sister can cope with
that guy called Desmond.
That guy is something else. Can't you see as he was eating
like a glutton at the table.
- He's a clown.
- He is just like that honey.
Is not everybody that is expected to be this center modest
like you... it's inborn.
Ha no no this one is alarming.
He has a problem, a major one.
You should have seen when Sly called us and asked about our
businesses to see where he can assist.
He just jumped up like it was Christmas day, you should have
seen the list of problems he wrote out.
But.. but I thought Becky said he was just recently promoted
to the position of a general manager.
General what?
General who?
General manager.
My dear that guy was not promoted at all.
See he earns just thirty-five thousand naira per month and
your sister earns just fifty thousand.
They can bearly feed.
I even question how they got here if it was truly by plane.
Me too.
I've always doubted Becky, if there's anybody in my family
I'd expected to marry wrongly or not progress it is me.
Especially that Becky acting like miss goody two shoes.
- Can you imagine?
- But God has disappointed all of them and placed
Becky in the exact position she expected of me.
- Honey let's leave them alone.
- Senior manager.
- Honey please.
- Oh baby.
- My love, you know I love you.
- I love you too.
Baby.
Baby.
- Baby wait now. Wait.
- What.
- I thought you were on your period.
- Oh no I finished yesterday.
- Yes.
- Baby I want a head.
- I want a head.
- No, no baby no, no. Not tonight.
Look just wait now... I'm tired okay. Don't worry in the next
two days I'll give you whichever way you want it.
All right?
I tried to overlook and act like it's not there but it's
there it's glaring, insulting me, throwing all sorts
of shades at me.
I tried to ignore the disdain and the hatred she feels
towards me but they won't go away.
- Are you sure you are not imagining things?
- I am not.
Today, I lied.
I know I lied but this one hurts me.
I lied because I couldn't tell them the truth.
I... told them that you were promoted to the position of a
general manager.
What do you mean..are you trying to spoil things for me?
- What do you mean spoil things for you?
- What if they find out, what if they find out the truth.
Nobody is going to find out. I couldn't say the truth
because I was too embarrassed to say the truth.
I just couldn't say it. Nobody is going to find out, in one
week we will be out here
and all these will be over. We'll go back to our lives,
nobody's going to find out.
Ha God.
You just want to spoil things for me. General manager
at least just say I'm a CEO.
- Would you shut up!
- Shut up!
Can't you be general manager of a company?
Can't you?
Your mates are out there making money and doing stuffs.
General manager doesn't come with a car,
it doesn't come with a...
- I told them you just got promoted!
- Airtime credit. CEO comes with everything.
- Bonus... Travel.
- You annoy me.
General manager learn how to lie well.
- Stupid person.
- You are a coward.
- Fool.
- You are a stupid man.
Fool.
- Hello.
- Yes sir.
- How are you?
- I am fine. Thank you.
- Please do you guys sell bush meat here?
- Yes, but not here at the palm wine bar.
- Where exactly can I get it?
- You could get it at the back but not at this time.
- I mean you have to come back in the evening.

Wow.

- Guys...
What!
Do you guys know these two have been together for ten
years?
- What?
- Ten years?
- Ten years.
- Both of them.
- And they are still in relationship status.
- Whereas you can see.
That's rather too long.
They appear to be so much in love.
But how are we even sure they are not yet married?
How do you date someone for ten years?
- Even if you are in school you would have graduated.
- Yes.
- Well... did you know she was a prostitute?
- What!
- Prostitute?
- And maybe she's still is.
- Are you serious?
- Yea.
- Do you know they met in a brothel?
- No, no.
And do you know he kept on patronizing her until
he fell in love?
Wow.
So I don't know whether it is post-paid, pre-paid or pay as
you go which one?
- How can you fall in love with a chief brothel operator?
- Now you share my sentiment brother.
- Guys listen, listen...
- Ten years.
Let's not talk about them okay.
I don't discuss people.
Let's just have our fresh palm wine, have fun and enjoy our
meat okay.
Okay, talking about them whether brothel, pros-paid
whatever.
- It's post paid not pros-paid.
- Whatever.
Pros paid or post-paid is the same thing.
What I said you understood me right?
- But do you still think she's a prostitute?
- How am I supposed to know that?
- And which prostitute will go and order grass cutter?
- Okay now seriously you seem to be enjoying this whole
- prostitute conversation.
- If her mouth is sweet that means everywhere is sweet.
- Will you stop talking about this?
- That means I will order tooto for you. You want tooto?
- Is not prostitution.
- What's wrong with him?
But you said is too much.
Yes I said that but then I don't think it's something you
need worry yourself about okay.

- You're welcome.
Look at him shining his teeth like we both

Pass it, pass it.
Okay so Cheryl is Sly's school mate.
Come, come, come and hop in with us.
- Hi guys.
- Hi Cheryl.
- Hi.
- Hi Cheryl.
- Hi.
- So come join us.
You know we're here on vacation?
- You're Sly's school mate?
- Sly!
- Is that your school mate?
- Yea she's my school mate... Yea.
Come on in. Come join us.
Your wife is such a good woman, very friendly and
understanding.
- Like I didn't even know you were married.
- Married? She is because they call her my wife.
What other intreptation is of a wife if not after marriage.
What do I call marriage here? When two people are being
forced to live together as husband and wife
when they don't know each other.
- But why do you have to agree to such arrangement?
- What would you have me do?
Now I am the prince of our land, her father was a brave
warrior who owed my dad the king a lot of money
but then he couldn't pay so he gave his daughter as a
collateral to my father.
There was a war he fought bravely and got injured but then
he died at some point leaving the daughter at the palace
Now my father got so fond of her because of her dad's
bravery he then betrothed her to me
without knowing if I love her or not.
Now I am to reject her and lose my birthright
or accept her and gain my lost glory.
- How pathetic.
- I know.
An object of collateral for a debt to become the future
queen?
That's a shame you guys need help.
Babe... look at me.
No look at me, look at me.
- What?
- You're my idle woman for a queen Cheryl.
- I saw that the very first time I set my eyes on you.
- Oh please. Not so fast. You're still in a dilema.
- You have to fix that first.
- Okay if you say so.
Yea...
You know I would love to stay with you
all night long Cheryl.
- You sure know how to tease your woman.
- Something I inherited from my father the king.
Hmm..a rare one at that. My prince you know there's always a
next time so why don't you
go back to your collateral wife before she declares you
missing.
- So tell me what does the prince get for good night?
- Perphaps a hug.
- I got that yesterday.
- Okay a peck then.
- Nope maybe something deeper more initimate.
- Like what?
- A kiss.
- A kiss?
- Then the prince gets a kiss.
- Hmm... I do.
- Yea.
- Okay. Come here.
- Where have you been?
- Babe.
- You're still awake?
- I said where have you been!
- I was at the bar having a drink.
- I went to the bar and you were nowhere in sight!
- What bar did you go looking?
- The main bar!
No babe, I wasn't at the main bar, I was at the palm wine
bar.
The palmwine bar!
- Yes.
- With who?
- Listen there's no need to lie I was with Cheryl.
- Cheryl.
- At this time of the night.
- Yes.
- You were with Cheryl.
- Yes babe believe me.
We were not there alone she was even there with her fiance
he was the one who pulled me there.
- I should have said something.
- We came here to spend time together.
It's suppose to be a special moments for both of us that's
if it means something to you.
Of course it means something to me babe that is why I have
left what I am doing to be here with you
Just to let you know how special you are to me.
I'm sorry please.
Babe come here.
I'm sorry forgive me okay.
No more late nights.
- I'm not going out again.
- Promise.
I promise. I'm sorry.
Go take a shower.
- Hello my future queen.
- Oh hello my prince. You are here.
- Yes, yes I was bored and I needed a life.
- And your collateral wife?
She's gone for spa treatment with her crew.
- Are those really her sisters?
- Not really, just because we are from the same kingdom
hence she calls them sisters. She's just a lone daughter
from a dead warrior.
- I see. So what promises does the day hold?
- A lot my love I came to take you around.
- Like seriously?
- Let's go catch some fun.
- All right okay I will drop this then I will be right back.
- Okay sure.
Okay.
- Baby you're back.
- Yes...
Yea, yes I forgot my phone... I promised I will call Junior
I didn't want him to get worried so...
I will just pick my phone and leave.
Baby what's wrong?
Why are you crying?
I thought I could keep it to myself.
-Calm down, calm down
-The beautiful part is about to explode.
Baby what is it now? Tell me.
- I just caught my sister's husband Sly with another woman.
- What!
- Yes.
- Sly!
- Doing what?
- I caught them pants down right on the beach sand
Not even in a decent place right on the floor of the
magroove swamp.
- How can he so wicked and reckless?
- Sly!
- He's cheating on my sister.
- How can he be so insensitive?
- On a vacation with his wife and her family!
- Exactly.
- Such a disrespectful act.
- Who does that?
That's disheartening!
- Baby did you see the woman who he was cheating on?
- You wouldn't believe it Melv.
It's Cheryl.
- Cheryl!
- Yes.
- But I thought those were old school mates!
- That's what we all thought.
Ha! Those two are something else.
Sly!
I've to go back to the spa I don't want them to suspect
anything.
Okay, okay, good, good.
- Baby this will kill Louisa if she finds out.
- Yes totally.
Look, are you sure you can handle it?
- I'll try.
- Okay you have to but be careful.
Okay, okay, be careful.
Go, go.
Don't worry, don't worry.
Ha! Sly.
It's okay, it's okay.
- Don't cry it's wasn't me you caught.
- No I know you won't do that.
- Yea I will never do that.
- You would never do that to me.
Sly!
- Don't cry don't let them know.
- Yes, I will try.
Don't even let them... don't let anybody suspect anything is
wrong okay?
Okay. I'll see you baby.

Slick Sly.
Old school mates with benefits.
You know I really had fun today, thank you.
No I should be thanking you.
I wish the sun would never come down you know.
Then go get a Joshua's mountain then maybe God will grant

I must confess you're the sweetest girl I've ever been with.
- And your collateral wife?

I... mean we didn't know how else to show you

Even tho I know Becky you thought about this.
This was your idea.
- You like it?
- I love it. God.
It's nice I like it.
Everyone.
- No sit here.
- Baby.
Sit here babe.
I know Becky is better at this one.
She's the brain in the house anyway.
Oh my God... Was this a plan?
- What plan?
- On this very day food poisoning!
Becky you know I react to prawns yet you chose to serve me
prawns.
- It's okay I'm sure she didn't mean it.
- Don't you dare tell me what is right and what
isn't right. You have no moral justification for this.
- Nadia listen calm down.
- I have not had one but five prawns encounter with you.
- The outcome of my face is that what you miss?
- Listen I didn't know there was... Oh my God!
- Is there prawns?
- No you did not know the meal you organized?
I swear I don't even prawns on my plate.
- Baby calm down okay it's just prawns.
- Yea.
Nadia please just calm down I think these days you get
easily irriatated.
Oh Desmond is that an apology?
Oh Nadia it seems you get easily irritated.
- Shouldn't I? Infact I am irritated at both of you.
- Sis.
You Desmond, you make a mere thirty-five thousand naira
in fact you are irritation itself.
Meanwhile Becky is on the other end singing praises
oh my husband
he's just got promoted to the position of a general manager.
Waiter!
- Des didn't get promoted?
- No?
Anyway today is my special day, so I don't want anyone to
come and spoil it okay?
Everybody eat your food, we can just take out the prawns
okay?
Yea.
- You snapped at me.
- Nadia I don't know what Melvin has done to you
in this foul mood but I think you need to apologize to my
husband.
Leave it there.
What's Melvin got to do it?
What? She's been this way ever since she got your husband
pants down with Cheryl!
Baby!
What!
You didn't know your husband was making out
with Cheryl?
Yes!
She caught them.
And she's been irritated ever since then.
Tell me what Melvin just said is not true.
He can't deny it.
Or am I lying?
- Baby...
- Shut up!
- Don't you dare insult my husband!
- What sort of a husband is he!
- Don't you dare insult my husband!
- I will insult your husband cause you're a stupid person!
What kind of a man are you!
Must you say everything you see?
Of all days, of all places!
This is a useless man sitting right here calling himself
your husband!
- And what of the one you are married to?
- What is wrong with you?
- Shut up you fat pauper!
- Excuse me!
- I will slap you if you point...!
- You try it! You try it!
- I will slap you!
- You try it Becky!
- If you point hands at my husband again!
- Try it!
Listen at this point I just want to say that some people
here are just being selfish okay?
- Rubbish!
- Marvin I suggest you shut up and you keep your mouth shut
Because a few days ago I overheard you telling strangers
that your wife's vagina smells every time she's done with her
period so please...
Baby!
Baby!
You said that about me!
Fuck!
Babe, babe what are you doing?
What are you doing?
- Stop it.
- Leave me alone!
Babe don't do it I beg you.
Give me one reason why I shouldn't.
Because I'm sorry.
Because you are sorry?
Because you are sorry?
You do not have respect for me.
You do not have respect for my sisters.
You do not have respect for my family!
Ha God! Just let me pack my things and leave this place so
you can have
enough time with your whores or you can even have enough
time to go to the beach and have a quickie.
Listen to me I don't want you to blow this out of
proportion.
It was just guardless fling that I had with her I didn't
intend for it to happen.
I don't love her it is you that I love so please don't do
this.
Please do not patrronize me okay.
Do not.
I'm tired of your lies, I have had it up to here with your
lies okay.
And this is going to be the last time you will ever lie to
me again.
Hey baby stop listen to me. It is you that I love and got
married to not her!
Why are you doing this? It was just a fling!
A fling Louisa!
So my husband is now allowed to have flings.
Let me ask you just one question.
Did you use a condom?
God.
Oh God Sly, Sly.
You are even the bigger fool than I thought.
Ha God.
How can you have an unprotected sex
with another woman?
You don't even know her medical history!
God.
And so if she has interception you'll just go pick it up and
pass it on to me?
You're even more stupid than I thought.
- And where are you going?
- It is none of your business.
I can no longer share a bed with an idiot like you!
Leave me alone.
Damn it!
What the fuck.
You told my sister's husband that my private part smells?
My husband says that about me?
Have you ever told me about my body?
What you feel?
It wasn't like that now.
The guys were only talking about how they couldn't stand
women with dirty punanies and I just made an example.
With me?
Does my private part smell?
I'm asking you a question!
Honestly... only after your period.
What regards do you think Sly and Desmond would have of me
after discussing me like that to them?
Why are you so insensitive to let such a secret of
Sly and Louisa come out of your mouth come out so easily.
Why are you cursed with such a porous lips!
You're a man Melvin, men don't gossip.
They keep the doors of their lips closed with padlock.
I'm sorry.
I already said I'm sorry.
It was just a mistake, a very costly one.
- My God.
- I'm so sorry baby. I'm sorry.
Oh my God.
I don't know how Louisa will be going through.
How... what she will be going through right now.
It's better to be single than to be married to such a man
like you.
Haha!
I know that I am not married to a man that talks so I'm
going to ask you nicely.
How did Melvin know that you earn thirty-five thousand naira
and why did you say that about my sister?
Look it was supposed to be between us men he asked how
business was doing and I told him everything
and he offered his help.
I don't have a problem with you getting help
but what I have a problem with is you getting it in front of
Melvin.
Didn't you know it will come out?
Put us in a bad light and earn us mockery?
Mockery.
Let me explain something to you.
Next year by this time Melvin and the wife will have nothing
to mock us with trust me.
- I mean if it's about the cheque I can return the cheque.
- No.
And my sister why did you say that?
I'm sorry.
Sometimes you can damn right annoying.
- I'm a man.
- Oh shut up.
- I have to love you more.
- What man are you?
What man are you? What man are you?
Cheryl how could you!
You knew you were sleeping with my husband and yet you
allowed me to introduce you to my family?
Why did you even come into my camp?
- What husband!
- Don't deny this.
Don't because my sister saw you pants down having sex
or making love or whatever it is you were doing with my
husband at the beach!
I'm not denying anything the prince told me you're not his
wife you are just a collateral
for the debts you owe his father and after your father died
the king became so fond of you
and decided that you and the prince should get married but
the prince refused to...
- Stop all these rubbish! Who told you these?
- The prince.
- Who is the prince!
- The one you call your husband.
That lying bastard.
Cheryl he lied to you.
He lied to me?
He lied to me just to get down with me.
He is not a prince.
I am his wife we're legally married in the church.
I came here with my sisters so we can celebrate my one year
anniversary.
Oh..Oh my... Oh my God.
- Oh Sly.
- Oh my God. I've been deceived.
Oh that's what I hate the most in my life.
Sleeping with another woman's husband.
Louisa I'm so sorry I didn't... I didn't know.
Please forgive me.
It's not your fault Cheryl you.
You just a victim of my husband's lying lips.
Oh my God.
Look guys.
I'm sorry I didn't mean to spill the beans the way I did you
know
but the deed is done okay just don't let it get the better
part of you okay.
I mean every man cheats don't let them feel like you're the
only one cheating.
My brother not all men cheat, some men cheat you see if you
want to cheat you have to
cheat discretly you have to respect your woman's feelings
and vision and eye sight cheat but cheat discretly.
Yea I think Desmond is right I acted reckless and got my
cables burnt.
Ha shit you burnt your cables big time, big time.
How is she holding up?
I've not set my eyes on her since she left the canbanal last
night.
What? Where did she pass the night?
No, no she slept in our canbanal. She just cried all through
the night.
- She's really hurt.
- I know I hurt her so much.
I had no right.
I'm an idiot for acting this wrong on our vacation.
A big one! A big damn idiot.
Don't worry at least you are remorseful now so everything is
okay.
- See let me tell you how to, if you want to cheat...
- Desmond shut up.
- Don't save their name...
- Desmond shut up!
- As side chick.
- I said...
- You can save the side chick.
- Are you still talking I said shut up.
- If you talk you're not going to get that business help.
- Househelp, secretary, gateman.
There are two kinds of cheating men those who own to their
mistakes after being caught.
And those who don't.
I am happy that Sly is not among those people who do not.
- It does not change anything.
- It changes everything.
You see men who don't own up to their mistakes
they end up blaming you for everything that has happened.
- Who's that?
- It's Nadia.
Come in.
How can you let her come near you after all she said to you?
That is the same way I want you to forgive Sly if he's truly
sorry.
Nadia is different, everything she said to you, you just
want her to come in just like that.
I don't know how to say it.
My heart was heavy towards Sly
and I didn't know how to say what I saw because I didn't
want to hurt you.
And Becky? What was her offence?
Tell me!
You're too selfish Nadia, you're too selfish cause I can
recall everything you said about Becky
and now you just stroll in here to tender
your weak apology?
Well I am not Becky I do not forgive you and I never want to
see you again.
- I'm sorry what more can I do?
- You've come to me or better still go to Becky!
- Not your husband for Christ sake!
- Are you blaming me that Sly cheated!
- Yes! No! I'm blaming you for...
- You people should stop it, stop it.
Listen this is not the way forward I mean you guys can't
just start blaming each other
that's not that's not right.
Nothing I do or say is not always right but if it's Becky,
Becky is perfect.
Nadia if you came here to apologize render that apologhy and
get out of my room.
Are you serious? You have to bring me into this?
I know that I can not force you to like me, I know that I
can not force you to care about me
and I know I cannot force you love me but please understand
in this situation I am not your problem!
I never said you were my problem!
If it was you who caught Sly cheating
she would never have blamed you irrespective of how you
handle the situation
but if it's me nothing I do is ever right.
Please do not accuse me of not loving you enough because God
in heaven knows that
I have given all the love I have inside of me and it's just
never enough for you.
That is your problem!
I'm sor... I'm sorry. I never meant to ruin your party.
- Becky you know I would never do anything like that.
- I don't know anything, I don't, don't call my name.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I said I'm sorry, sorry.
Hi Cheryl.
You lying bastard!
You led me on!
Sly what do you still want from me!
What do you want from me! Or are you here to tell me that
your father is the president
- and rules the country!
- I'm sorry.
What! Your sorry is so useless right now.
You can even strangle me Sly, you can even strike instead of
lieing and pretending to be...
just go! You've done enough damage Sly, just go I never want
to see you again.
You've done enough damage Sly, just go I never want to see
you again.
Even though I lied to be with you what I feel for you is
real.
I meant it when I said you swept me off my feet and you
still do.
Sly just go leave me alone. I never want to see you again.
You really want me to go?
Just go!
Okay I'll go.
- Louisa.
- Hi, how are you?
Babes I was wrong, I wronged you.
I have sinned against God himself.
I have abused and rubbished the solemn promise
I made to my loving wife at the the sacred altar of God.
I am so ashamed of myself I don't deserve to be a called a
husband.
- So you know sis please.
- Babe baby
- Leave me alone.
- Baby I'm sorry please.
Sis don't touch me with those fllthy hands. You can go
ahead with your illicit affairs okay.
Atleast now you have enought time to do that.
- Baby... Louisa.
- Get out.
How is she?
She's asleep.
Yea I hope she is feeling better because the way I saw her
she wasn't looking good at all.
Yea. I'm going to convince her to forgive him.
But not yet.
I think he needs to suffer a little bit more.
I mean look at the emotional torture he has put my sister
through.
And Nadia on the other hand is there feeling
guilty that she talked.
That she should have just ignored and kept quiet about it.
No, no she shouldn't feel guilty about it.
The only person I blame
is that boy he should learn to put his third leg in place
I mean you can't just be going around just
removing your third leg.
What kind of life is that?
Look there's a saying if you're living in a glass house you
shouldn't throw stones.
You should be made to suffer... they should really suffer,
suffer well, well, well.
His punishment should be that he suffers well, he should
learn from his mistakes
- So do you put your third leg in place?
- I keep my third and fourth and fifth in place.
Hey Cheryl.
Where are you going to with your luggage
and all dressed up?
- I'm leaving.
- Why?
I'm leaving let me just leave here and free myself from this
guilt.
- Just... I need to just go.
- We ruined your vacation right?
No I...
I ruined it the first time I allowed him get away
with that lie.
How could he even say I'm his school mate?
- And I didn't even tell you.
- See it's not your fault okay.
My husband is so swift with words, he can even brainwash an
angel with his lies.
And to think... I was coming here to clear my head after I
saw my fiance with a woman
- Really?
- I thought I was running away from dirty water
but I got myself in to a deeper one.
Mybe I'm just too vulnerable. May... that's why I keep
getting myself in this kind of mess.
- I'm so sorry.
- Trust me there's nothing to be sorry about.
- Trust me.
- So sorry.
It's okay. You're a good girl okay.
Just take care of yourself.
- You're such a good woman. I wish women were like you.
- It's okay.
- Good bye.
- Good bye dear.
Take it easy okay.
Cheryl.
Cheryl.
- Where are you going?
- I'm leaving.
I ruined your vacation. I'm sorry.
But you know Sly in every... bitter experience there's a
lesson to be learnt.
I've learnt mine.

- Yes I have.

Guard her with everything okay.

Thank your guts.
Anyways I went through hell and back this past few days and
like they say...
One doesn't know what he has until he's at the verge of
loosing it.
- Who said that?
- Pope John Paul.
And whilst I was going through all these suffering all I
could think about was
what I went through before they allowed me
to marry her.
And because of my fleshy desires I almost ruined everything.
Talking about the deal which you went through, you know what
I went through?
Her father almost made me pass throught the eyes of a needle
before he allowed me to marry Nadia.
Mehn, I went through hell with that family.
- Really?
- But on the contrary I didn't go through hell at all.
Everything was just smooth, I just went there and said Baba
I want to marry your daughter.
Okay take... finish.
What do you expect? Duh.
That's because Becky already has a son.
Yes from a rape by their servant when she was just thirteen.
Duh.
- What do you mean Becky had a son?
- Ha! You didn't know.
- No I don't know.
- By their servant when she was thirteen.
She knows, she knows, Becky is right here
and can't deny it.
- Desmond, Desmond wait.
- I didn't know.
- And how am I suppose to know?
- You're such a kill joy.
- And how am I suppose to know?
- Oh shut up Melv.
You're a lousy idiot!
- Hey hey don't insult me.
- And if I do what would you do?
- I just...
- What will you do!
I don't know what I will do!
I just said I didn't know.
- How am I suppose to know that I did...
- Shut up!
- Did you know?
- Shut the fuck up!
- How can I be crucified for something I did not know.
- Melvin!
I said shut up!
Did I know?
Is that one a secret?
Melvin! How could you?
How could you let such a secret out your mouth so easily?
A secret that was kept for fifteen years, that secret I told
you because you're my husband!
How is it a secret when she knew, you knew, three people
already know.
- Now you've said set my whole sister all against me.
- No that was not my intention.
I was only sharing the news.
You shamed me to be called my husband! You are a disgrace
to manhood Melvin!
I did not know.
What... How is it a secret when three people already knew?
- You take me for a fool.
- No.
How many years have we been married but yet you
keep this a secret from me.
- I'm sorry.
- And you're asking me to forgive you?
- I can't!
- I'm sorry. I'm sorry Desmond.
I wanted to tell you, I was just too afraid you were going
to leave me.
Everyone was treating me like a plague. You were the only
one that showed interest in me.
- I didn't want to lose you.
- So now it's an open secret!
It's an open secr... everybody here knows.
- Everybody knows.
- Desmond calm down.
- I don't think I can be with someone like you.
- Desmond please.
- I don't think so.
- Desmond please.
Desmond please.
Oh my God.
Nadia has finished me.
Nadia has killed me.
Honey are you still mad at me?
You haven't said anything since we came here.
I promise I would never make you cry again.
That's not why I'm worried.
I'm worried for my sisters.
This will tear them apart.
This is a secret to be over to keep.
That's always with Bre but Nadia... Oh Nadia why?
But babe how... how did it happen?
It's a painful experince Becky will never like to recall.
She was like twelve or thirteen when one useless idiot of a
man forced himself
on her and the boy ran out of our house.
He battered her and wounded her.
My dad was so devasted he jailed him up till nobody know if
he died in prison.
That truma still lives in Becky and I don't know why Nadia's
so called lousy husband
decided to just open this wound.
Becky tried to kill herself when she found she was pregnant.
But my father being the night of saint John of course he
would never endorse an abortion.
So that's one of the reason why she married Desmond out of
shame.
- Who knows what's going to happen to my sister?
- Nothing.
Stop baby.
It's okay, it's okay.
Can you listen to me nothing is going to
happen to your sister.
I promise now we are going to solve this once again as a
family okay.
It's okay.
Stop crying.
Becky how could you do this?
I told you.
I told you to tell him but you won't listen. See what you've
done to yourself.
How would he trust me? How would he even listen to me?
I just couldn't tell him, I just couldn't tell him.
Oh God what am I going to do now?
I just...
Desmond.
I know that you are very mad at me.
I know that what I've done is very wrong but please come
inside.
Atleast you can sit inside. I can't leave you like this.
I can't leave you here.
Desmond.
Baby please.
Baby please I beg you I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry please.
Desmond please.
Honestly I didn't tell it to Marvin because I wanted to hurt
or mock my sister.
I told him the truth because he wanted to... he found the
truth about
destiny and wanted to know who the real mother is and
perhaps it was...
And perhaps he thought he was yours and you were lying to
him.
- I thought as much but you should have told something else.
- I didn't know what to tell him.
Besides this thing didn't just happen.
It happened in our first year of marriage.
I didn't know he was a gossip then.
I thought he was going to keep the secret.
See, standing here brooding and wailing over this will not
solve any problem.
Why don't you just talk to Becky I'm sure she will
understand.
I've tried. She wouldn't even look at me. I've hurt her so
badly.
It's okay. So you're going to try, try and try and try again
until you succeed okay.
Okay.
- Sis.
- Becky.
Becky, please.
- Please just listen to her.
- Becky I'm sorry please.
Becky, please I'm sorry forgive me, Becky.
Please, forgive me please.
Perhaps you forget that I am not the only one with secrets
here.
How about we go meet that lousy husband of yours and tell
him that
you have a secret you wouldn't want him to know about.
When the doctor told you that you didn't have a fallopian
tube.
I kept it for you infact I don't even remember that you have
a secret like that.
You lost your fallopian tube based on series of abortions
that you did and I was there for you.
When the doctors said you couldn't bear more than one child,
I was there for you
and I kept your secret because you are my sister, I kept it
I didn't even remember that
it exist and just this one thing that I ask you for you
couldn't keep it.
It wasn't even my fault, It wasn't even my fault but yours
was born out of your recklessness
and I kept it.
What are you sorry about? Don't! Get out!
- Forgive me.
- Get out!
I don't know what you have against me, I don't know what I
did to you!
I'm sorry. Becky please.
Don't tell me you're sorry. You're not sorry.
- I'm sorry.
- You're not sorry.
It was a moment of indecision please I will mean to
actually...
- Why...
- Sis I'm sorry.
Why didn't you tell your husband about your own secrets in a
moment of indecision.
- Do you always talk about me in your home?
- No.
Why? As far I am concerned Louisa is the only sister I have.
- No!
- Don't touch me!
I am not your sister and I don't want to ever, ever see you
again.
- Becky.
- It's okay.
I didn't mean to hurt her.
Sis.
Why will Nadia betray me like this?
You know if you were in my shoes, do you know what you would
have told me?
You would have said give it up Louisa. Nadia is your sister
and you know that blood ties are difficult to break.
So now I want us to reverse the situation.
Please Becky, please give it up. No doubt Nadia messed up no
doubt but then
why don't we see it as God trying to vindicate you and your
son?
You've been without him all these years now that your
husband knows about him
you can just you know go get him so you can make up for lost
time.
Please, Becky please just give it up please.
I don't see you like this Desmond.
I see you to be the most humble, calm and the most
reasonable amongst us.
You have showed great understaning at other's faults but why
is it so difficult with your wife?
Let me tell you something I'm just pissed off and angry
because she could keep something like this
away from me, what if she's keeping another secret away of
such magnitutude.
She's not the only one in this, her entire family decided to
keep it a secret
including my wife.
It was really an act of rape.
She didn't call this upon her.
Some families would have agreed to abort the child but no
she kept her womb intact and refused to take the life
of an innocent child.
- I don't want you to blame for her noble act I beg you.
- Look I'm not angry because of all those things
I'm not angry because she was raped or because she has a
child.
I'm angry she doesn't know how much I love her, how much I
trust her for her tell me such secret.
I mean how can she bear this alone, how can she handle this
alone.
I know.
Just let it go okay.
That's the only reason why I am angry.
- She's coming here.
- It's...
Desmond.
- Des...
- What?
Des look at me.
Just forgive her.
I'm sorry.
Please I'm sorry.
Desmond I miss you.
I'm sorry.
How could you do something like this to me?
I'm sorry.
The child, is it a boy or a girl?
It's a boy.
Actually, you've met him - Destiny.
Destiny?
Can I adopt him?
- So I can have one son and two daughters.
- Desmond thank you.
Desmond thank you so much and I'm so sorry.
- Thank you.
- You're putting makeup on my shirt.
- You're putting makeup on my shirt!
- Desmond can't you be serious for once?
I just washed this shirt.
Guys...
I just want to say I'm sorry.
I've caused a lot of trouble in the few days that we've been
here with my running mouth.
Just forgive me and it will never happen again.
- Perhaps because there are no secrets to blow out.
- But I just said I am working on my mouth.
Better get a padlock and lock it.
I'm sorry. Forgive me.
- Becky.
- No no no it's fine.
It's fine, totally it's fine, it's okay.
Hey did you guys know that Sly gave him six million naira in
a cheque for his business.
You didn't tell her?
