[poignant guitar music playing]
It's over ♪
[yelling] Wait! Phumzi, please wait!
Wait.
Please, Phumzi.
[tense music playing]
[a lowered voice]
Let's just sit down and talk.
- Is she coming back?
- [wistful music playing]
She's in the sky
with all the other angels.
- With God?
- [young Simon] Yes.
[wistful music continues]
[tense music plays]
[groans]
[theme music playing]
[theme music ends]
[sighs deeply]
[in Tswana] You know what, um
- I just can't stop thinking about him.
- [crickets chirping in distance]
I'm thinking of everything all at once.
I'm forever asking where could he be,
and why isn't he contacting us
or something?
- He's never missed a job.
- [tense music playing]
Mo just got married,
and he wasn't even there.
[grimacing, panting]
Fuck.
[Tswana] We were talking to
the ancestors not so long ago.
The incense was lit.
And while we we're talking to
the ancestors, it just went off.
My heart believes he's still alive.
That he could walk
through that door any minute.
[man1 yelling] Dude, what the fuck?!
Argh! Hands off man! Fuck!
- [tense music playing]
- [man groans]
What the fuck is this?!
[groaning]
- [man2] Make me!
- [man1] Fuck!
[man1 groan] What the fuck!
What the hell is this?
Who the fuck are you?
[Zaza in Xhosa]
I'm sorry for the aggression.
But it was the only way I was going to get
you and convince you to come and see her.
See who?
[staccato tense music playing]
- Mimi, Mimi!
- [Mimi yelps]
[Zaza in Xhosa]
You do remember her, don't you?
[English]
I mean she's a bit different now,
but I'm sure there's
still a connection between the two of you.
Hey, [clicks tongue]
I'll blow your brains out, boy.
What the fuck did you do to her?
Nothing compared to what I'll
do to you if you don't cooperate.
Cooperate?
Do you know who the fuck I am?! Huh?
Do you actually know
who the fuck my family is?!
I know your dad
and uncle better than you do, brother.
And I'll do everything in my power
to get everything they have.
- You'll help me to do so.
- [tense music playing]
Baby?
- Phumzi
- [dramatic sting]
Is everything okay?
[rhythmic tense beat playing]
Mo, do you love me?
Yeah, of course I love you, you know that.
I love you more than anything.
There's something I need to tell you.
- Something wrong with the baby?
- [tense music continues]
What the hell is this?
[in Zulu] Mo,
I don't know what I was thinking.
[in English]
I was scared and I didn't know what to do.
- What have you done to my child?
- Wait Mo, it's not what you think.
- Did you kill my child? Yes or no?
- No. No
- Answer me!
- It's not what you think!
[knock on the door]
[in Zulu] Mr. and Mrs. Masire,
you're both invited to the police station,
regarding the gold heist.
- You're both coming with us.
- [tense music playing]
[both laughing]
- [in Tswana] What can we say?
- But you were also a cry baby.
No way.
Just going to the zoo,
you'd be crying the whole time.
Argh, listen man, you know that.
It was Mo with his deep voice. [laughing]
- [helicopter whirring]
- [melancholic music playing]
[man yelling] Police!
Come out with your hands in the air.
- [siren wailing]
- [guns cocking]
Come on, let's go. Let's go.
Nice house.
What do you want?
Beautiful job, by the way.
I bet you thought you'd get away with it.
The gold, ladies!
I'm here for the gold.
Get down. Down!
[tense music playing]
[suspenseful music playing]
[Tlotlo] Why the hell would I help you?
[in Xhosa]
Because if you don't, I will kill her.
[Tlotlo huffs]
[in English]
I don't take threats too kindly, woman.
Fine.
[Mimi sobbing]
[muffled screaming]
[screaming, groaning]
[screaming, crying]
[yelling] Okay, okay, okay! Alright. Fine!
I'll help you.
- Just stop.
- [Mimi sobbing]
Okay, we have a deal.
[Mimi continues sobbing]
Why
Why're you doing this?
[in Xhosa] Your father
and his brother killed my father
like a dog.
- [in English] And I want justice.
- [Mimi sobbing in the background]
You're
you're Menzi's daughter.
Okay okay.
See, the only reason
why they reacted the way they did,
was because your father
tried to get my father killed.
And instead, he murdered
an innocent ten-year-old girl!
[yelling] What kind of man does that?!
This this is not justice.
No, this is revenge.
Are you done?
[in Xhosa] Justice and revenge
are all the same.
Get them out of here.
[wailing]
[suspenseful music crescendo]
[tense music plays]
I am sick and tired of your shit.
On your knees, hands behind your head.
Now.
[groans] Just my fucking day, isn't it?
[Gial] I didn't sign up for this shit!
[sighs]
[mobile phone ringing]
Yeah?
[man] Her father needs to disappear.
- But I thought we said
- Don't think, just do.
[suspenseful music playing]
[tense music playing]
Mm, nice ring.
I hear you recently just got married.
How does it feel being married
to a murderer and a thief?
[in Zulu] Do you know what they do
to pretty girls like you in prison?
They beat you up,
then they give you the belt.
You do know the belt, don't you?
Ever heard of the train?
Choo choo!
Where were you the duration of yesterday?
- Home.
- [in Zulu] With whom?
With my family.
So I'm guessing
you know nothing about this.
- No I don't.
- I'm sure your boyfriend does.
Do you know what happened to your brother?
Because I think I do.
I'm sure.
Why don't you tell me where the gold is,
and maybe,
just maybe I'll cut your family a deal.
Nobody does anything
for my family except for me.
Besides, [in Tswana]
I don't know what you're talking about.
I'll tell you something
but you got to promise me that,
you didn't hear it from me.
You have my word.
Why don't you tell me
where your father hid the gold,
then you may never have to see
a day in prison in your life ever again.
In fact, you can
fucking run your little club
and nobody's going to disturb you
or mess with you.
Better yet, you can take what you have
and you can start all over again.
Think about your future here.
I do have something for you
it's right here. [laughing]
You see,
the thing is
I don't know what you're talking about.
Your wife [scoffs]
she's nice.
I wonder how she took finding out that
you haven't changed your ways at all.
[man] I demand you release
my client with immediate effect.
[Gaxa shouting]
Get this fucking clown out of my station!
[Tlotlo in Tswana]
Vee, please wait for me.
[grunts]
[Tlotlo] Hey.
[tense music playing]
- Hey.
- Hey.
What do you have for me?
It's pure gold.
[in Tswana]
So far the police have nothing on us,
except for the one loose end we have.
Let's get some privacy.
Yeah, sure.
Jean's wife.
She's still nowhere to be found.
Find her.
Okay. And when I do do you want me to
Just find them.
Boss, there's one more thing.
We don't know his real name,
but on the streets,
he goes by the name of Magic.
Comes from the States.
Apparently Atlanta, Georgia.
But we can't tell for sure.
[tense music playing]
Boss.
- Anything else?
- He used to be ex US military,
but now goes as
a private security contractor.
- But we know that's a front because
- He's an assassin.
From what I understand from speaking
to the boss, he was after Robin.
Leon, find out why he wanted Robin
and why he wanted her dead.
Copy that.
Hey Mo, Steenkamp wants to talk.
Oh and Sting
do it.
[Gail]
We really need to get going, Mrs. Jean.
[suspenseful music playing]
Mrs. Jean, this is serious.
Can you please hurry up?
[Mrs. Jean] I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
- I know it's getting late. Sorry.
- [Gail] It's alright.
Okay.
Fuck!
- Hey!
- [yelling] What the fuck!
Oh, Jesus! It's me. It's me, calm down.
What the fuck?
Fucking hell, man.
- [Tlotlo sniffs]
- [chuckling] Easy.
And then what the fuck happened?
What the fuck do you think
happened, dude? The police closed us down.
And you where the fuck have you been?
I've been calling you all the time.
I was looking after the wife,
like you said.
But as soon as I heard
that you guys got arrested, I ran.
[sniffs] Alright.
What did you want me to do, dog?
I'm sorry.
Anyway, where's Ayanda?
Ayanda didn't make it.
What the fuck do you mean?
They put a fucking bullet in his skull.
Shit!
- Fuck!
- Yeah.
Shit's real, dude.
[in Afrikaans] She's getting better.
Yes, she looks good.
Oh, we have company.
- [tense music plays]
- Ah,
the Masires.
[in English] Glad you could join us.
Wasn't sure you were going to make it,
with all the entertainment
on the news this morning. Mm?
Well, we're here as you can see.
This is my lovely wife,
Annamarie and my son, Hansie.
Yeah, my father bought this place in '76.
Can you believe it?
With the intention of building a school.
He died of a stroke.
I heard he was poisoned.
I built a horse ranch instead.
Animals are way less complicated
than humans are, wouldn't you agree?
Humans tend to lie to steal to kill.
Sometimes they have the tendency of making
you wait unnecessarily for what's yours.
Yours?
You're a funny guy, Steenkamp.
You know, for something to be yours,
it would imply that you once had it.
The job is done, Mogomotsi.
I still don't have my gold.
The gold is in a safe place.
The exchange will
happen once things cool down.
What did your sister say?
[in Afrikaans] We have a timeline.
It's not what we agreed on.
Let's get one thing straight.
We didn't have an agreement.
You had an agreement with Simon.
- I don't think you understand.
- No, I don't think you understand.
We're not going to risk anything
until things cool down.
And when they do, then we'll talk
about the price too.
[tense music playing]
[Annemarie] Son. Son.
I highly advise you to reconsider.
That's not gonna happen.
We're done here.
[Annemarie] Hansie.
[in Afrikaans] Hey! Hey, calm down.
[Steenkamp]
I think it's time to get to work.
Definitely.
Why do I get the feeling that there's
something you're not telling me?
I don't need to remind you, Mrs. Jean
that obstructing the course
of justice can land you in hot water.
I'm talking five to ten years in prison.
And I could turn it up at any
time if you don't start speaking. Talk.
They told me
that if I spoke to the police,
they would kill me and my family.
- Who's they?
- I don't know who they are.
We can protect you
if you cooperate with us.
The sooner we catch these people,
the better.
If we showed you a couple of photos,
would you be able
- to identify them, to help us?
- Yes, let's get to that.
- I guess.
- Do you remember this man?
No.
- What about him?
- No.
This man?
That's him.
You've done very well, Mrs. Jean.
I wanna know what
you were doing with this.
I didn't do it.
Abortion?
If that's what you thinking.
So, you're
Yes, I'm still pregnant.
[in Afrikaans]
Did you know she was pregnant?
Okay. Look you
you shouldn't scare me like this.
Mo, there's something I need to tell you.
No.
There are things
I should've spoken to you about.
I should definitely have
spoken to you about the job.
I just didn't know how you would take it.
And also, I
- I made a commitment to this family
- It's true.
I'm working undercover.
Well, not anymore.
[groans]
What did you just say to me?
- My name is Sonia Themba.
- [tense music playing]
I work for the South African Special Ops,
and I'm an undercover agent.
S Sonia?
[scoffs]
So
And you work for who?
I know, I should have
told you about this, okay?
I was assigned to investigate Simon, but
- You're lying to me.
- [tense music playing]
- You're lying to me.
- Mo, please.
I was going to tell you.
Mo, please put the gun away.
[yelling] Gun. Gun. Go, go, go!
- Please.
- [suspenseful music playing]
Is this baby even fucking real?
[yelling] I asked you a fucking question!
[sobbing] Yes, it's real.
Really Mo [sobbing]
If I ever see you again
[siren wailing]
I'll kill you.
[sobbing]
[sobbing loudly]
[officer]
Check the rooms. Check the rooms!
[in Afrikaans] Where is he?
Check outside!
Don't just stand there!
Go and look for him!
- What the fuck?
- [tense music continues]
- Sonia.
- [sirens wailing]
[yells] Fuck!
- Wilson!
- [door creaks open]
[tense music continues]
Robin, Robin, Robin.
Could've done better than that.
What do we have here?
[bike engine revs]
- [sound of match on TV]
- Papa, mm, cross! Cross! Jab!
[groans]
[tense music continues]
[mobile phone ringing]
Yeah, what's up? Talk to me.
I need backup.
Something's seriously
fucking wrong here, man.
I'm on my way.
[demonic snarling]
[demonic whispering]
[demonic snarling]
I've been waiting for you.
[whispering]
[suspenseful music playing]
Who killed Simon?
[yelling] Answer me, damn it!
[in Tswana] Lady, please be careful
with that. You might make a mistake.
- I don't know.
- So
he is dead?
[sniffs] I don't have
the answers you're looking for.
I found this in the warehouse in Botswana.
Doesn't mean he's gone.
It was supposed to be you,
you were the one
who was supposed to protect him.
Did you kill my husband?
I'd die for Vader.
Where is my husband?
Angela, leave these things to us,
we'll solve them ourselves.
You know what?
I'm going to ask you this, one last time.
Did you kill my husband?
- No.
- Fuck you!
[crying]
Fuck! Shit!
[suspenseful music playing]
