The Sacrifice

Son of a bitch!
You need to put pressure on the wound,
put pressure on the wound.
I got too excited.
You got careless, Si.
Leon.
Send a cleanup crew, Robin's house.
Now.
- Is your guy good?
- Yeah.
You all right?
- I'll be okay.
- Just keep the pressure on.
Fuck!
Oh, shit!
- What is this now?
- It's a roadblock.
Shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit.
- I'm going to turn around.
- No.
If you do that, they're going to think
something's wrong.
The murder weapon is in the boot.
Fuck.
- It's too late to turn around now.
- Just go.
Fuck.
- Just keep the pressure on that wound.
- Yeah.
Shit.
Fuck.
Oh, man.
Oh, shit.
Oh, man.
- Good evening, gentlemen.
- Hello, my brother.
- How are you?
- Good, and you?
- All right, how's it, brother?
- Fine thanks, and how are you?
- Yes, sir.
- Can I see your drivers license?
I don't have
my driver's license, my brother.
Come again?
- I don't have my driver's.
- Hmm.
And it smells like
you guys have been drinking?
I was going to fetch my brother,
so I left the house in a hurry,
and I forgot my license,
but I had one small tot.
- One small tot?
- Yeah.
Let's see what the Breathalyzer
will read with this one small tot.
- Ah, let's not use it.
- That won't be necessary.
Let's try talk this through my
brother, we don't have to take it outside.
What's happening in the car?
There's nothing,
we were just driving.
Put your hands where I can see them.
No, wait. Hey, there's
- no problem.
- and that blood?
Where does it come from?
I had a nosebleed.
Nose bleed with so much blood?
You, I'll deal with you after.
Step out of the car.
Let's talk about it,
my brother.
Get out of the car
so we can talk about it then.
- Okay, sharp.
- Mo, Mo
Why are you doing this to me?
Yeah, you said we were going
to talk, what are we talking about then?
I need your help.
Let's stop
beating around the bush.
- Take this.
- What am I taking now?
What's this now?
There's ten grand in there.
Where are you?
You want to bribe me?
You see, that word bribe
is a very big word.
Yeah, it is a big word
because it is a serious offence.
But you see, I'm trying to help
fix things, so we can be good.
You, today,
will be sleeping in the cells.
Let me go get a van, so we
can both go to the police station.
Okay?
This will be the evidence
that you were trying
to bribe a police officer.
Get out the car
so we can get into the van.
Get out, hurry up.
I'm still at work, hurry up.
Hey, hey, hey!
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!
What happened?
Nothing, we need to get
the fuck out of here, bro.
- How am I looking on your side there?
- Good, let's go.
Welcome to South Africa,
O.R. Tambo International Airport,
Johannesburg.
- Mr. Turner.
- Boss.
How are you, my good sir?
- I'm good, no, I'm good.
- Welcome to South Africa, man.
So, are you ready
to take over Johannesburg?
Are my magic wands ready for pick up?
Oh, they'll be ready in the morning.
How do you say abracadabra in Zulu?
Everything's going
according to plan, right?
Yeah, but we shouldn't drop the ball.
They're going to be keeping an eye on us.
Even you.
I want you to make sure
that Phumzi makes Mo happy.
All wrapped up.
That shouldn't be a problem.
All you've got to do,
is make sure that your brother
holds up his end of the bargain.
You know I hate to admit it,
you guys make a formidable pair.
You understand?
Yeah.
Good.
I'm going to go make breakfast.
Okay?
Perfect, ah!
Goodness.
Have you seen Phumzi?
She left early
this morning. She said something about
that little shop of hers.
Um
Angela
I wanted to thank you.
You know, for looking after her.
Oh, don't mention it. She's family.
Right?
That means a great deal to me.
Yeah.
You know
what needs to be done.
Quench my thirst.
Blood needs to spill.
Make a sacrifice.
Had enough, haven't you?
I think you have.
Okay.
So we're going to try this again.
It's either that you do it the easy way
or the hard way.
It's really up to you.
Take this.
Go to hell!
I guess you've chosen the harder way.
Go down.
Go down.
Go down, man!
It's nothing personal.
I'm just returning a favor.
Boss.
Where to, boss?
When I got arrested
I promised that bitch
I'd see her the minute I got out.
I intend to keep that promise.
Taxi, my man.
Detective.
You know Captain Stan Mazibuko
from the SAPS?
Captain, this is Sonia Themba,
South African Special Ops unit.
She's been undercover for us
ever since Masire got out of jail.
What was so urgent?
I risked my cover
leaving the house like that.
Well, this is kind of urgent. Aliko Bajo
was released from jail this morning.
How?
Well, the judge didn't think
he's a flight risk.
Posted one-point-two million rand bail.
Fuck.
You know he's going to come after you?
With the evidence you got against him.
The evidence is not going anywhere
and neither am I.
They can't stop me from testifying.
It gets worse.
We think Jazmine
was murdered.
Murdered?
Murdered by who?
She was on a trail.
Looking into the disappearance of Robin
and Sam Masire Junior.
She mentioned that she found
some of the diamonds that were
stolen from the
Armoured Africa heist.
She made a call to me.
I asked for her location to send back up.
She hung up.
Never answered again.
She's been missing ever since.
This doesn't make sense.
We believe the Masire brothers
are behind this.
They murdered detective Jazmine
and disposed of her body,
just like they did with the two cops
that were found yesterday.
Themba, I'm going to pull
you off the case.
- What?
- You heard me.
You're no longer undercover.
With all due respect, this is bullshit.
This is dangerous.
I expected you out of all people
to know how much this means to me.
To the SSO, the SAPS!
Look
If Jasmine is dead
and we are serious
about putting these men to justice,
then there's only one thing
left for me to do and that's to
- finish what I started.
- But I just said
Sorry.
Hey, babe.
Hello, my baby.
I'm here at you're shop,
but you're not here.
I'm just checking where you are?
Um, I'm so sorry my love.
I went to go get stock.
You know how it gets month-end.
There is something
I'd like to talk to you about.
I'm afraid it cannot wait.
Okay, um, I can ask Lesego
to lock up for me.
- I'll see you at home?
- Perfect.
I'll see you at home.
I love you.
Bye.
Look
All right, all right.
I'll give you one more week.
One week, detective.
And don't die.
I hate the fucking paperwork.
- Oh, sorry.
- Nah
The apologies are mine, my brother.
You know, you're
actually the man I'm looking for.
I'm sorry?
Do we know each other?
Nah.
But we share
a mutual friend.
- Is that right?
- The lady that owns this shop.
- She's not here at the moment.
- No?
Can I take a message?
No.
No message.
Just tell her
I'll see her soon.
Um, sorry, I
didn't get your name.
- Oh, my god, that was good.
- Mmm.
- I have to go.
- Mm-mmm!
- Mmm.
- Hmm-mm.
- I can't go again.
- Hmm-mm, you're not going.
- Oh, please, please.
- Hmm-mm.
Hey
You want to leave already?
Duty calls.
But I thought we were going
to spend some time together.
You know I'd love to.
But hey, you're brother's a demanding man.
I'm a demanding woman.
Phone him and cancel.
You know I can't do that.
You know this.
Why is everyone
so afraid of my brother? Why?
Keneilwe, listen
I'm not afraid of Simon.
Okay.
But I just need to go.
You're not afraid of him?
So why not tell him about us?
Soon, baby.
Soon.
I promise.
I'll tell Simon about us.
You know Simon isn't who
everyone thinks he is.
What do you mean?
My brother is a smart, ambitious man.
Yeah, I know that.
But his greed is going to come back
to haunt him one day.
Hmm!
I'm sorry Keneilwe, I don't quite follow.
What do you mean exactly?
Nothing. No, no.
- Hey.
- Nah, I'm not saying anything.
- Hey, hey.
- No, I'm not saying anything.
Hey, come on.
No!
Oh, come on.
Anyway, let me
- Why are you doing that?
- Listen
Promise, I won't tell anyone.
Okay.
Let's just say
Mm-hm?
My brother gets his power
and his good fortune
from a very dark, unnatural place.
A place one should never go to.
Wow.
Okay.
So
Are you going to tell him about us?
- Yes.
- Please?
- Hey, boss.
- Hey, how are you?
- How's it going?
- All good, here's my guy.
Number one.

We agreed to twenty-thousand.
This person is from overseas,
it's twenty thousand.
Sorry my friend. It's twenty-thousand for
you because you are coming from very far.
We agreed on ten-thousand, man.
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
no, no, no, no, no
- What's up with this dude?
- Ten more.
Without ten more, no guns.
- I can do ten more.
- Hah! Number one, number one.
What the fuck?
Shhhh

Please

I'm not going to shoot you. Let's pack

What's wrong
- Hey, Si.
- Hi.
Um
Have you seen Phumzi?
Uh, she's inside.
Okay, good, good.
What's wrong?
You look stressed.
She's inside, right?
Yeah, what's wrong?
Why do you look nervous?
Look
Look what I got here.
Is this what I think it is?
Yeah.
I want to ask her to marry me.
- My brother's getting married.
- Yeah.
- Again.
- Again.
Someone
took your girl the first time.
Someone took my girl.
No
I think this one's for keeps.
- She's the one.
- She's a good choice brother.
I think so too.
I am sweating like a pig, bro.
Don't worry.
- You'll be okay, man.
- Gosh, I hope so.
- Go, get your girl.
- All right, I'll go.
- You look sharp.
- I look sharp, right?
You look sharp. Go.
All right, here goes nothing.
Mo.
Dude, go.
My boy.
Hey.
Hey.
Oh, yeah, um
I almost forgot, um
there was a guy looking for you
at the shop earlier.
A guy?
Yeah, a Nigerian guy?
I didn't get his name.
Ah, it's probably a client.
You said it was important?
Yes, it is.
I've been doing a lot of thinking lately.
Then yesterday I stopped thinking.
I started feeling.
Instead of using my head I
I started listening to my heart.
Do you know what my heart told me?
My heart told me that
from the moment you walked into my life
I haven't been the same.
Nothing's been the same.
From the moment I laid my eyes on you
I changed.
I was lost without you, Phumzi.
And now I'm found.
My heart told me one more thing.
And that is to ask you to marry me.
Will you marry me?
This is the moment where you
you actually say something.
I'm sorry, Mo.
I can't.
What?
It's not that I don't love you.
I just need time.
What does that mean?
I'm sorry.
Sting.
Father.
Tell me you found them.
Nothing yet.
I've searched everywhere.
I think they're using different names.
Find them, Sting.
And call me only when you have something.
I'm on it.
Fuck.
Hello.
Hello, how are you?
Have you seen this woman?
Hm-mm. No, I don't know her.
And this boy?
Hm-mm.
I don't know him.
Drop that phone.
Forgive me, forgive me.
Forgive me.
Captain.
- Someone is here to see you.
- No, not now.
No, no, Captain
This person says they have info
on Detective Gumede.
Hi. My name is Captain Stan
I know who you are.
So apparently you have information
surrounding the disappearance of
Detective Gumede?
More specifically
I know who killed her.
We need to think big.
Okay.
Okay, listen.
I'm all about the game plan.
What's the POA?
Right now, I don't have a clue.
But what I do know is
one, life is short,
and two, I cannot live
under Mo and Simon's shadow anymore.
Hey, boy!
Uncle Lez.
You grand?
Ah, no, easy, man, easy, easy.
Good to see you.
- Hey.
- Yeah.
I see
- Simon gave you the club back.
- Yeah.
Must be doing much better, hey?
Come on, join me.
Yeah.
You
You seem stressed, boy. Or is it just me?
Ah, no, it's nothing, Uncle Lez.
Come on, laaitie. I know you very well.
Something's bothering you.
- It's this girl.
- Ah
Hmm.
There's always a girl.
My ex.
Thanks.
What happened?
She stole from me.
Ooh, ooh.
Well I'm
I'm sorry to hear that.
Yeah, me too.
And to think
I actually loved this one, hey.
Ah, what can I say? I mean
You'll clothe them,
feed them, take care of them
your whole life.
But like a snake,
they turn on you as if you are nothing.
Funny thing is she called me
a couple of days ago.
Telling me about how sorry she was and
how she hasn't spent a cent
of the money that she stole.
She actually wanted to meet up
and give me the money back
and talk things through.
Mmm.
Look, part of me
is still very angry at her.
But
I drove her away, Uncle Lez, you know?
Yeah, it's a
it's a tough one.
But I think you should go see this girl.
I mean, one thing I know is
loyalty's rare when it comes to women
and this one sounds like a keeper.
Above all else if
it doesn't work out
then at least see her for closure.
Seems like you both need it.
Make that call.
Yeah, you might be right.
Lester?
Ah, Mogomotsi.
Tlotlo, we need to talk.
Thanks, Uncle Lez.
- You always know what to say.
- Ah, don't mention it, boy.
Ah
Something funny?
Not at all.
I just think you need to
understand the kid.
Where he's coming from.
I don't need advice from you
on how to deal with my son, all right?
I get the feeling,
ever since you got out of prison,
you don't like me much.
Is it because
I became Si's second-hand man
while you rot in that cage?
Or is it because
no one was there to take care of you
while you were inside?
Lester
I'm only going to warn you this one time.
Or else what, man?
You're undermining me like shit.
Don't make the mistake of forgetting
who I am. Do you understand me?
You're undermining me like shit.
Mogomotsi Masire.
What the fuck do you want?
We are taking you in for questioning.
Surrounding the disappearance
of Detective Jazmine Gumede.
I don't know what you're talking about.
We'll see soon enough.
If I refuse?
Then I'll have to arrest you
where you stand.
Simon Masire.
I need you to come with us.
You know in other parts of the world
disturbing a man while
he's having a drink is considered a crime.
So what the fuck do you want?
It's regarding the matter of
Jazmine Gumede.
You better get your hands off me.
Sir?
If you do not cooperate,
I'll have to arrest you.
Turn.
Get my phone.
You can bring them in.
- Captain?
- Yep?
There's an urgent call for you,
something about your wife?
- Just give me a minute.
- Okay, no problem.
Hello?
You must be the witness? Faith?
Mzakhele, right?
- Yes.
- Officer Nel.
Good to meet you.
Now Faith
you look like a very smart woman.
A wife,
a mother of two.
You know nothing about my family.
I know plenty
about your family.
Bridget,
She's six.
Martha,
she's ten, had a birthday in August.
Wait, wait. Hold on, wait.
What what do you want?
Do you see the two guys behind the screen?
- Yes.
- It's very simple.
If you're smart
you'll not recognize them.
And your family
will be safe.
Oh! Oh.
Sorry about that.
Come over, please, ma'am. Right.
So you say you've seen
these gentlemen before, right?
No.
- Please, look at them.
- No.
- I beg you, please, just look at them.
- No, no, no, no.
No, no.
Listen here
a policewoman was murdered,
and you said you know who did it.
- No, just look at them now, please!
- It was a mistake.
- I'm sorry I've wasted your time.
- No! No!
- But what? What's wrong?
- Please, wait, no.
What? What? Have they paid you off? Huh?
Talk, dammit! Please!
- Captain! Captain!
- What?
Let her go, let her go.
She hasn't seen them.
I think we should call off the job.
You know that's not possible.
It's a bad idea, Si.
Stanley and his people are onto us.
We make one bad move now
we're fucked in the ass.
Carrying on with this is pure suicide.
We've already closed the deal, brother.
If we pull out now
You know what's going to happen to us.
So we do this
I end up back where I started.
Locked up in a fucking cage.
If we don't do it, we both end up dead.
Talk about great fucking options, huh?
I'm willing to take the risk.
What's this?
Take it.
Hey.
Can I join you?
How are you?
My friend.
Do you know somebody
called Phumzi around here?
Yeah? Where's this, where's her house?
Ah, that one.
Right.
Let's go see who's going to run
the fastest, hey?
I'm going to kick this ball
and see who gets it first.
All right, let's go.
Let's go.
Please!
Okay, I'll do it!!
Please, just let me out.
Can you hear me?
There's a lot more effective ways
- to get things done a lot faster.
- I'll do it, I'll do it, I promise.
I'll do it
Look, I've done everything the way
that you wanted me to do it,
- and it's almost cost us everything.
- Can you hear me?
I'm not about to lose my chance of getting
Simon back from what he's done to me.
- Let's not forget
- Please!
why we're doing this, Zaza.
To take over Simon's empire.
That's your goal, not mine.
I told you this.
- I'll tell you again.
- Can you hear me?!
Simon
is a ruthless son of a bitch.
Killing his son won't destroy him.
Taking his businesses will.
We'll see about that.
Go away.
You'll get your chance at Simon.
We just need to be smart.
Well, talk about the devil.
Hey, Z
Keep me posted.
Is anybody there?
I'll do it, I promise,
I promise.
Open, man!
Who the fuck are you?
Who the fuck are you?
What are you doing in my house?
- What do you want here?
- It's not you who I want.
- Huh?
- It's that
lying police bitch.
Who?
You don't
- you don't know, do you?
- Who are you talking about?
She
she's going to do to you
exactly what she
what she did to me.
Your girlfriend
What about her?
She's with the police, you fool.
Boss!
Boss! Boss!
Boss! What's happened?
What's happened? Boss!
Oh-lo-lo! There you go, champ!
Mmm!
Whatever.
Boo for you.
Hey, man, why you always so sad, dude?
Come on, chin up.
You know I love you, right? We're boys.
Knock, knock.
Mmm? Come in.
Anything else?
Gentlemen?
No.
- That will be it.
- All right.
Sting?
Boss
I found them.
I have to go, gents.
Mo?
Why are you sitting there?
Where were you?
I was at work.
You know this.
Really?
Yes.
What's wrong, Mo?
You're scaring me.
I spoke to your cashier.
You were never at work today.
- You checking up on me now?
- Where the fuck were you?
I don't like the way you're talking to me.
You don't like the way I'm talking to you?
Why won't you marry me, huh?
Is it because you don't love me?
Or because you're a fucking liar?
Why won't you marry me?
What are you looking for?
You looking for this?
Huh?
Yeah?
What do you want?
- I'm in the middle of something here.
- We've got a problem.
Who are you?
Who the fuck are you?
- Who the fuck are you?
- You can't kill me.

You're lying.

- I can show you the fucking results!
- You're fucking lying to me!
I can show you the results!
I'm pregnant.
I'm not done with you yet.
So you thought we wouldn't find you huh?
Now I got to kill your son.
What kind of mother are you?
- Who are you?
- Don't worry.
I work with your father, to save you.
Get the fuck back over here.
