[phone ringing]
Sure, Sting.
All right, I'll be right there.
[Veronica sighs]
We're going to have to stay put here for
a while. No one moves until Mo says so.
[Keneilwe in a lowered voice] Let's go.
[mobile phone ringing]
[Tlotlo] Dad, we need to talk.
[in Tswana] Not now, we'll talk later.
[in English] Then when, hmm?
And why did your eyes turn blue out there?
Because the last time I saw that,
it was uncle Si's eyes and now it's you.
What? Is there something
that you know that we don't?
- [Tlotlo] Because first uncle Si dies
- [Veronica] Yeah.
[in Tswana] And now it's you.
[in English] Now what's up with that?
It's the Steenkamps.
Yeah?
[Steenkamp] I just wanted you
to know I got your message.
[machine beeping]
[Steenkamp] You will not take a break,
you won't phone your wife,
[in Afrikaans] you won't even take a piss.
What you will do,
is keep tracking them every second.
Okay?
[man] Okay.
[sighs]
[pensive music playing]
[tense music ends]
[in Tswana]
Do we keep things from each other now?
What? Am I too new to know what the mighty
Mo Masire is up to or where the stash is?
[Mo in English]
I think the less you know the better.
[Veronica] Don't give me that bullshit.
What the hell do you think this is, huh?
Do you think this is a game?
This isn't some rebellious
over-the-edge sports biker bullshit
to satisfy your thrills.
People are after us here.
My brother is dead.
My wife is missing,
my son thinks I'm evil.
[Veronica] Well, he's not wrong, is he?
You're fucking your brother's wife
and getting comfortable in his shoes.
[Veronica scoffs]
History is repeating itself.
Things haven't changed
in this family since we were kids.
[tense music plays]
[soft music playing]
[pensive music playing]
[Veronica] Being reborn
is nothing like what you expect.
They say your first time
is supposed to be with someone you love.
I had mine right
after I ran away from home.
I had no choice, just like
I had no real choice about the first time.
It was this or die.
I chose life.
Fuck!
But I couldn't go through with it. But the
guy didn't like it when I changed my mind.
[punching]
- I was on my own. Nobody cared.
- [young Veronica yelps, crying]
- [young Veronica screams]
- I was going to lay there
- Bitch! Bitch!
- dying.
And nobody would
think twice about stabbing me.
- Nobody, until he came.
- [young Veronica crying]
- [tense music playing]
- [young Veronica crying]
[man whispering]
It's okay. It's me, my child.
It's okay. It's okay.
- [sniffling]
- [man] It's okay. It's okay.
It's going to be alright, my child.
[car ignition starts]
[machine clicks]
[man in Setswama]
I know what they did to you, my child.
They abandoned you.
- [in English] Yes, they did.
- [machine beeping
You know, they abandoned you.
[in Tswana] In life, my child,
there are things you cannot change,
nor control.
[in English]
But the ancestors, my child, say,
"Taking back what was lost
is part of the human journey."
That's right.
- We're going to take back what is ours.
- [tense music builds]
[in Tswana] Sleep well, my child.
They will really regret what they did.
- [tense music continues]
- [Mimi mutters indistinctly]
[Tlotlo] Hey. Hey.
[Mimi sighs]
You okay?
[Tlotlo] Okay.
What's wrong?
I guess I'm just uh
still shook after what happened earlier.
I can tell something's on your mind.
It's nothing.
[scoffs] After everything
we've been through, Tlotlo,
- you still cannot be honest with me.
- [Tlotlo sighs]
Ur
[sighs] Wow.
Mimi, come on. All right.
You know what, I thought we
were through with this begging thing.
We were, all right. We are.
Tlotlo, you've seen me at my worst,
yet you still cannot be honest with me.
I can see something's wrong.
What are you doing?
Where are you going?
You cannot leave, you know that.
I don't care.
All right. Mimi, wait.
It's my uncle.
It's it's my uncle, Simon.
I think I know who killed him.
[dramatic music playing]
[bike engine revs]
This war between these
families needs to come to an end.
Even after they tried to hunt
the family down like dogs?
I lost two Masires
in a very short space of time.
I can't lose anyone else.
Boss, aren't they gonna see
that as weakness? I mean Simon
I'm not Simon, Leon.
[yells] I'm not Simon!
[sniffs]
- We need to tie up all loose ends.
- [tense music continues]
Make sure nobody else can come for us.
Consider it done.
This war ends now.
[Mo] What's up?
We have a location on Phumzi.
[Mo] Is it legit?
[Mo] Let's hear it.
So
[Sting] Come on.
Speak.
[man] They took her to a scrapyard.
Jo'burg south.
[Mo] How do you know?
[yelling] Hey, speak!
My cousin works for Bajo the Bajo family.
[Leon] Cops! Nine o'clock! Nine o'clock!
[dramatic music playing]
Mogomotsi Masire,
sorry to gatecrash your party.
We haven't had the pleasure, have we?
Andre Van Heerden. Special Ops.
How can I help you?
[Andre]
I think we can both help each other.
Somehow, I doubt that.
You haven't heard what I have to say.
I'm not sure I want to, either.
Now, unless you want to arrest me
It's regarding your wife, Mr. Masire.
[Andrea in Afrikaans] Let's take a walk.
Chat a little.
[in English] Come.
[Andrea clicks tongue]
[Andrea sighs]
So you've gone
and lost your wife. Missing.
- Missing?
- [Andrea inhales]
Come on,
we both know what I'm talking about.
[Mo] I'm afraid I don't.
- Does the name Aliko Bajo ring a bell?
- [tense music continues]
[in Afrikaans] I thought so.
[in English] What is this about?
It's about you knowing Phumzi's
real identity. Special Agent Sonia Themba.
But your associates don't know this.
If they did,
you wouldn't be here, would you?
Now, you're gonna, do a little something
for us, if you want to keep it that way.
And what's that?
You're gonna go find your fucking wife,
and you're going to take her home.
When she's home, I expect full cooperation
with law enforcement.
[scoffs]
Full cooperation, huh?
You see, we wanna put
an end to this little shit show.
I think you should go fuck yourself.
[scoffs] It's you
who's getting fucked, both ways.
It's not a negotiation, Masire.
What if I refuse?
[amused] If you refuse, let's see.
Tomorrow's papers are going to read,
"King of Jo'burg marries
South African Special Agent Sonia Themba.
And now they're working with the police."
How's that going to be
for your street cred, huh?
[in Afrikaans] [clicks tongue]
Nice one, man. You have 24 hours
King.
And when you see the missus,
send my regards.
We should have a braai afterwards,
when all this shit is done.
[dramatic music continues]
[mobile phone ringing]
Hey.
No, I'm just, um,
I'm taking some personal time.
[laughs] Right.
Just give me an hour and I'll be there.
Okay.
- Okay. Bye.

[sigh of relief]
- [tense music continues]
- Shit.
[cricket chirping]
[tense music playing]
[Tlotlo] Shit.
Are you sure we're
supposed to be out here?
[whispering]
People want to kill the Masires.
[Tlotlo panting]
There's no way I'm staying here with them.
- [panting]
- [Mimi sighs]
I know, but like you said,
it's not safe [panting]
- I'll take my chances. All right, Mimi.
- [Mimi sighing]
- I'm going to protect you, all right?
- Argh
- Okay? Yeah? Yeah?
- [Mimi panting]
[Tlotlo] Come. Let's go, let's go.
From what I can tell, everything seems
perfectly fine and well with the baby.
[Mo sighs]
- [Phumzi] Thank you, Doc.
- Sure thing.
Good news, huh?
[Mo] Very good news.
[inhales] Look, I'd understand
if you don't want to do this because of
- Oh, no, I I want to do this.
- [tense music playing]
I haven't been more sure
of anything in my entire life.
I want this.
- I want you.
- [tense music continues]
[chuckles softly] I love you.
I love you too.
[tense music playing]
- [machine beeping]
- [dramatic music plays]
Shit!
Shit.
- Is that
- Leon.
- [Tlotlo exhales]
- [dramatic music playing]
[paper rustling]
- Take a walk.
- [dramatic music playing]
Don't even fucking think about it.
[Veronica] This man took me in
when he didn't have to.
But he did.
He saved my life.
I asked myself countless times,
"Why me?"
- [scraping leaves]
- [man grunts]
[in Tswana]
I can see you're feeling better now.
Don't just stand there. Get on
your knees and let's work together.
Remove this rubbish.
No, my little one.
Don't work as if your fingers are ribbons.
Huh? Use them firmly.
Do you know who I am?
You don't, I can see.
[panting] [in English] Give me two.
In order to be the woman that
you want to be, you have to be strong.
Give me two.
[yelling in Tswana]
Stand up for yourself. Do you hear me?
[in English] No one is coming to save you!
Not me, not your friends,
and certainly not the Masire family!
They left you for dead.
Stripped you of everything!
The Masire family
might as well have left you for dead.
What are you searching for?
- What are you searching for?
- Vengeance!
- Why?
- To get back what's rightfully mine!
[man] Two and duck!
Two and duck!
Two and duck!
Four and down!
Kick!
That's it.

- [tense music playing]
[gunshot]
She was starting to ask
too many fucking questions.
[in Tswana] Young man,
how many times have I told
you to stop messing things up?
You're old enough to think for yourself.
I can't keep reminding you of this.
- [in English] Where is she?
- [tense music builds and stops]
Hello, Sonia.
I've missed you.
- They must have known we were coming.
