3
00:00:16,080 --> 00:00:18,440
Now here is Thoko Duma.

4
00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:20,960
An overachiever from a very young age.

5
00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:23,600
Beauty-queen extraordinaire.

6
00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:26,560
There is no title
that Thoko hasn't achieved.

7
00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:29,440
Big or small, she always comes out on top.

8
00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:31,560
A proud UKZN graduate,

9
00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:34,120
and the reigning queer Miss South Africa.

10
00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:38,960
But one thing about Thoko, man,
she doesn't know how to take an "L."

11
00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:41,960
Be it loss or love, she can't handle it.

12
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:46,600
Welcome, all,
to the hottest city in South Africa,

13
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:47,680
the city of Durban.

14
00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:49,280
The city that never sleeps.

15
00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:51,520
Oh, man, the warmest place to be.

16
00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:53,800
What a beautiful song by Trompies

17
00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:56,000
welcoming you to the Felix Hlophe Show.

18
00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:59,560
I'll introduce our guest
and highlight the theme for today.

19
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:02,400
And this special guest
has been pushing a passion.

20
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:04,080
A beauty queen that we love.

21
00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:07,160
Thoko Duma. Miss South Africa.
Our favorite one.

22
00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:08,680
A warm welcome to our show.

23
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:10,800
Thank you, Felix.

24
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:14,320
You're also our first
openly lesbian Miss South Africa.

25
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:15,560
-Yes.
-So you're a first.

26
00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:17,440
An actual pioneer right now.

27
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:19,880
I mean, you were a clear favorite.

28
00:01:19,960 --> 00:01:22,160
We all thought you were going
to win the crown

29
00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:24,320
-at the big international Miss Universe.
-Yeah.

30
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:27,960
Next thing… What happened?

31
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:31,080
Felix, are you saying you did not
get a chance to watch the show, hey?

32
00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:33,720
It's not the same. I watched it.

33
00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:36,880
But, hey, I was viewing from the outside.
You were in it.

34
00:01:36,960 --> 00:01:39,560
So you were privy to things we are not.
We are not backstage.

35
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:41,240
So I want the juicy bits, you know.

36
00:01:41,320 --> 00:01:42,880
The things that they don't show.

37
00:01:42,960 --> 00:01:44,920
I mean, there you were next to Miss Kenya.

38
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:47,960
We thought that you were going to win.
Then, boom! Number two.

39
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:52,080
Miss Universe is Kenya!

40
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,680
How did that make you feel?
Tell us about that, please.

41
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:03,000
I mean, I was disappointed, for sure.

42
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:07,360
So, in other words, you're saying,

43
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:09,640
actually it's you
who should've been Miss Universe?

44
00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:12,760
Yeah. Yeah, Felix,
that's exactly what I'm saying.

45
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:14,840
'Cause the crown that day
should've been me.

46
00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:17,600
-Okay, go on.
-I was so far ahead of the competition,

47
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:19,240
but we know that means nothing.

48
00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:21,800
You know there's many reasons why
the best candidate won't win the crown.

49
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:23,320
But now, what do you mean, Thoko?

50
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:26,240
What I mean is I wasn't willing
to open my legs to win the crown.

51
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:28,600
A bomb just dropped.

52
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:31,600
Are you saying that to get the crown,
Miss Kenya did the deed?

53
00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:34,160
-With a judge, Felix.
-No way.

54
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:37,080
They flipped her over
like a piece of chicken from Nando's,

55
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:38,880
and then they gave her my crown.

56
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:40,120
Actually, she stole it.

57
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:43,320
Well, there you have it.
You heard it first right here on the show.

58
00:02:43,920 --> 00:02:45,280
Stay with us. Don't go away.

59
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:47,480
We're going to turn the heat up a notch
when we return.

60
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:48,960
Make sure you stay tuned.

61
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:51,040
You're in the mix.

62
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:52,920
T, you can't make an accusation like that.

63
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:54,000
I mean, really.

64
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:55,160
-Thoko!
-How bad is it?

65
00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:58,560
-It's not good.
-Miss South Africa, Thoko. How are you?

66
00:02:58,640 --> 00:03:00,960
-A comment for my YouTube channel, please?
-We're fine, thank you.

67
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:02,880
-I'm asking. Please?
-Please, no comment.

68
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:05,000
-Please, Thoko, you look so beautiful.
-Get in the car, T.

69
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:07,880
Okay, can I ask? Did they also offer
for you to sleep with the judge?

70
00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:09,640
Hey, lady, no comment, okay?

71
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:10,960
Please tell me what happened.

72
00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:12,600
-Just some details.
-Can I close the door?

73
00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:14,720
-Just-- You're hurting me.
-Okay, I'm closing the door.

74
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:15,840
Why are you like this?

75
00:03:15,920 --> 00:03:18,800
Hey, my word.
How rude is Miss South Africa?

76
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:21,280
You see, this is exactly what happens

77
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:24,480
when you start flying
too close to the sun.

78
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:26,480
Life will find a way to humble you.

79
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:30,080
And let me tell you, my friend,
the timeline, it never forgets.

80
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:35,120
I studied…

81
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:36,720
I'm born and raised here.

82
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:41,440
So, what's your hustle?

83
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:43,720
-I write.
-What do you write?

84
00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:45,120
Novels.

85
00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:48,360
They say that's an industry dying
little by little.

86
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:50,240
-Yeah, but--
-Why don't you try writing a movie?

87
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:52,440
-Well, I mean--
-With a movie, it just takes two hours

88
00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:53,920
for you to get all the plot in.

89
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,680
But with a book, it takes forever
to read that thing.

90
00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,120
Hey, listen, I've got a course
you can take on YouTube.

91
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:01,720
Thirteen-hour master class, see?
Over five weeks.

92
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,840
You'll be able to write an amazing
blockbuster to take you to fame.

93
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:06,880
I'll tell about it, okay?

94
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:08,160
But for now…

95
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:11,720
let me rush to the bathroom. I'll be back.

96
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:12,960
The course is amazing.

97
00:04:26,519 --> 00:04:28,280
No ways, Mom. Never.

98
00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,720
I know I'm not exactly Miss Congeniality,
but that guy!

99
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:34,240
Why? He's such a loser!

100
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:36,440
I don't think
you should be calling names right now.

101
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:38,400
You are in no position to say "loser"--

102
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:40,800
Mom, he wouldn't even let me
say a single word.

103
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:43,640
-He just ignored me.
-Are you sure that could he even hear you?

104
00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:45,600
-Wow.
-Because you're always whispering.

105
00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:47,400
Everything you say is always low.

106
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:49,080
-Just like this.
-Ma!

107
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:51,440
Just trying to assist.

108
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,920
You know, like,
the thing I don't understand, right,

109
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:59,760
is that, like, you just saw that guy,
then you decide on the spot,

110
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:04,120
"This young man here
would be very fitting for my child."

111
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:05,240
Why?

112
00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:07,320
So, have you dated?

113
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:09,720
Do you even know what dating is,

114
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:11,880
or the type of person
that you want to date?

115
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:13,600
How should I know what your type is?

116
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:17,640
-"That's my type. No, that's not"--
-Yeah, Mom, but it's not my type!

117
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:19,960
My girl.

118
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:24,400
I just don't want you
to die alone one day, my darling.

119
00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:27,760
I can figure it out myself.

120
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:32,840
How's the book coming along, baby?

121
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:36,160
Oh, my word.

122
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:39,400
No. My problems are a million and one.

123
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:44,880
It's not.

124
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:49,280
Usually, all the words
just pop out easily,

125
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:51,000
like, pouring from me,

126
00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:55,680
but right now, I've just, like…
I've hit a block.

127
00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:58,440
You don't think it's because you're
writing about something you haven't seen?

128
00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:01,400
You don't know how it feels
or what happens in it,

129
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:03,680
but you just keep on
bashing out the words.

130
00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:06,400
I'm a writer. That's kind of the point.

131
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:10,880
I don't need to live the story
in order to know what to write, no.

132
00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:13,360
-And that's why you need Jason.
-What?

133
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:16,360
I've heard he's even got
a YouTube channel online

134
00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:19,880
-where he teaches people how to--
-Absolutely not.

135
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:21,240
Absolutely not.

136
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:26,960
Welcome to Durban,
known as the hottest city.

137
00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:31,160
We've got another soulful Amapiano track
just before the 04:00 p.m. news.

138
00:06:34,280 --> 00:06:35,520
Gosh, I'm coming.

139
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:41,200
You all right?

140
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:47,240
Yeah, but that's not okay.

141
00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:49,600
I mean, to strip you of your title
and to take away your home.

142
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:51,760
Hey, no. When have you ever seen that?

143
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:53,760
Well,

144
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:57,880
apparently, I broke the code of the
South African Beauty Pageants Association.

145
00:06:57,960 --> 00:06:59,880
So tell me,
what am I going to do now, my friend?

146
00:06:59,960 --> 00:07:01,080
Something better.

147
00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:02,760
It's okay.

148
00:07:02,840 --> 00:07:05,000
We'll be able to figure something out
together, you'll see.

149
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:08,200
Yeah, well.

150
00:07:08,280 --> 00:07:10,720
I'm grateful for you allowing me
to take the big room

151
00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:13,080
-and you moving into the small room.
-Not at all.

152
00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:18,280
-Listen. Really. Mi casa, su casa.
-Thank you.

153
00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:19,600
-Got you.
-Breaking news.

154
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:21,400
Miss South Africa gets stripped
of her title…

155
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:23,760
-What are they saying now?
-Wait.

156
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:25,560
The crown that day should've been me.

157
00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:28,200
They flipped her over
like a piece of chicken from Nando's,

158
00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:30,160
and then they gave her my crown.

159
00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:31,400
Actually, she stole it.

160
00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:34,400
I made one mistake.
How long will I be punished, Buhle?

161
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:35,600
It will pass, okay?

162
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:36,680
All of this will pass.

163
00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:38,360
-Buhle.
-It's fine.

164
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:45,040
Well, as I said to you just now,

165
00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:47,120
I'm just a simple guy, you know,

166
00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:49,320
who likes to take pleasure
in the simple things too.

167
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:53,840
I hear you. I hear you, Lucky.

168
00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:56,000
So…

169
00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:59,080
what is the attraction about?

170
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:00,240
To you?

171
00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:02,800
You want me to explain
what attracted me to you?

172
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:06,440
When you laugh like that now,

173
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:08,440
it's like nothing matters at all.

174
00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:10,400
I feel like disappearing.

175
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:12,600
That's beautiful.

176
00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:14,720
So…

177
00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:18,120
When was your last relationship?

178
00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:21,120
Relationship?

179
00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:23,160
I'm still in one at the moment.

180
00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:27,840
-I…
-Hey.

181
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:29,400
Don't be too concerned here.

182
00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:32,800
My partner knows, you see.
And she won't disturb you and me now.

183
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:35,600
You know, right now
we just have to enjoy each other

184
00:08:35,680 --> 00:08:37,640
then you and I…
we can go our separate ways.

185
00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:41,159
Lucky, thank you,

186
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:42,919
but I don't think it's gonna work.

187
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:44,280
Wait, Nana.

188
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:48,520
I know this can be a lot to take in,
you know, and you haven't done it before.

189
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:51,240
But I know that we can do this.
It can work out great.

190
00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:52,960
-What do you say?
-No, Lucky.

191
00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:54,960
Thank you for your time.

192
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:58,200
You're leaving?
Nana, we haven't even eaten yet.

193
00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:06,920
You okay?

194
00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:10,560
-We need a win, B.
-We'll get it.

195
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:12,800
Uh-uh, we need to make one. As in, now.

196
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:14,720
What though? What are you thinking?

197
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:16,720
-Reality show.
-Oh, my God, Tho--

198
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,400
No, B, but listen. On a reality show,
we control the narrative.

199
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:20,920
-Okay.
-You know?

200
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,200
I mean, that will be tough.

201
00:09:23,680 --> 00:09:25,080
Because you've also thrown in the towel?

202
00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:26,680
Nah, it's just…

203
00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:28,840
It's one thing to shop around
for a reality show

204
00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:30,840
for Miss South Africa
during the year of her reign.

205
00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:33,440
But we don't have that anymore.
So what's your selling point?

206
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:35,680
You! You're my manager, B!

207
00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:38,200
I'm your manager, T, not a miracle worker.

208
00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:40,960
Okay, so now
you're not throwing in the towel,

209
00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:42,960
-but you've lost belief in me.
-No.

210
00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:45,560
I'm just saying we'll figure it out, okay?

211
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:47,880
Okay.

212
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:50,120
-Where to?
-I'll show you.

213
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:09,880
Thank you.

214
00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:20,160
So when you said, "I'll show you,"
you meant, "I'll show you a bookshop"?

215
00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:23,000
No, I heard
that one of your favorite writers

216
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:24,920
-will be signing books here today.
-No!

217
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:26,320
-Yep.
-Liana?

218
00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:28,280
She literally never makes any appearances.

219
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:36,120
For you, the whole world.

220
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:38,600
Look.

221
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:41,040
One of my faves.

222
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:43,920
-Lethu!
-Hi!

223
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:45,400
-You good?
-I'm good.

224
00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:49,040
Hey, okay, so just listen.

225
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:51,240
I've warmed up the crowd.
The vibe is vibing.

226
00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:52,920
And they're feeling ready
for the grand entrance

227
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:54,400
of the great Liana Ndlovu.

228
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:55,520
So, my friend, let's go.

229
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:58,080
But if I go down there, I'll drop dead.
I promise.

230
00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:00,080
The people down there
want to see Liana Ndlovu.

231
00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:03,960
A confident, sexy,
award-winning romance novelist.

232
00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:05,320
What will they say when they see me?

233
00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:07,640
A socially awkward, gawky, sweaty wreck.

234
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:09,600
Nana, people love Liana Ndlovu.

235
00:11:09,680 --> 00:11:12,280
-They love her.
-Only when I write, Zweli!

236
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:14,920
Without my pen, I'm just poor Nana.

237
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,360
-I'm sorry, Zweli.
-Hey, it's okay. Come on.

238
00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:20,800
-I can't.
-It's fine.

239
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:23,000
Jesus…

240
00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:25,080
I got this.

241
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:27,520
Hey, I'm going to need you, man.

242
00:11:32,560 --> 00:11:34,120
Ladies and gentlemen.

243
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:36,760
If I can please just have your attention?

244
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:37,840
Thank you.

245
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:40,200
So there's a bit of bad news.

246
00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:44,320
So, Liana Ndlovu is, unfortunately,
not feeling well.

247
00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:46,560
So she won't be able to make it.

248
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:49,200
But she would have really loved
to be here.

249
00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:51,760
With that, unfortunately,
what that means is that

250
00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:54,160
the book signing is… has been canceled.

251
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:56,120
I'm so sorry, but you know what?

252
00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:58,280
You can stay. Let's all stay.
Enjoy the books.

253
00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:00,080
We'll give out free coffee
from Black Books.

254
00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:02,640
Sir, ma'am, please. Ma'am…

255
00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:04,080
Quickly, get the coffee, guys.

256
00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:06,040
Personally, I'm not surprised.

257
00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:09,400
Liana, she's a true artist, okay?
She doesn't do this for fame or anything.

258
00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:12,480
Why announce that you'll be
signing books today and then not show up?

259
00:12:12,560 --> 00:12:14,360
-Let's go.
-I need to use the bathroom.

260
00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:16,400
Toilet, okay?

261
00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:23,400
Hi.

262
00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:30,760
Hey.

263
00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:33,520
You okay?

264
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:38,960
No.

265
00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:40,800
What's wrong?

266
00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:43,160
You're upset 'cause Liana didn't pitch?

267
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:51,720
Yeah, actually.

268
00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:57,680
And you?

269
00:12:57,760 --> 00:12:58,960
Nah, not really.

270
00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:06,560
-Didn't you come here to see her, though?
-Yes, I came to see her, sure.

271
00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:10,200
But to be honest, I think
it's a bit badass she didn't arrive.

272
00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:12,920
Badass?

273
00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:15,880
I mean, she failed, you know?

274
00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:17,960
You've all come this way
and put in effort,

275
00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:21,320
and she doesn't even have the decency
to show up.

276
00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:26,280
Look, I think, for me, personally,

277
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:29,480
it's enough that Liana keeps writing
and producing books.

278
00:13:29,560 --> 00:13:31,560
Also, fame,

279
00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:34,000
it's not as easy as we think it is.

280
00:13:34,680 --> 00:13:36,480
So I don't blame her for hiding.

281
00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:39,840
Don't be so hard on her.

282
00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:43,080
Okay?

283
00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:47,280
Hang in there.

284
00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:50,040
Hey…

285
00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:53,880
I'm grateful.

286
00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:57,160
I'm grateful to you for this moment.

287
00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:02,240
I'm grateful too. You're a gem.

288
00:14:03,680 --> 00:14:04,680
Bye.

289
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:16,440
-Hi. Sorry. Come.
-One second.

290
00:14:17,680 --> 00:14:20,960
-So, I've had a spark of genius.
-Okay.

291
00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:25,000
If we can't pull together a reality show
to tell my story, I'm gonna write a book.

292
00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:27,200
Oh, my gosh. Do you even write?

293
00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:31,320
Buhle, well, do you think every famous
person with a book wrote it themselves?

294
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:33,680
What are you talking about?
Like a ghostwriter?

295
00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:35,760
Liana Ndlovu.

296
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:38,200
-What?
-Uh-huh.

297
00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:40,760
Nobody knows who she is.
How are you going to find her?

298
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,040
Yeah, but you are my manager.

299
00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:45,000
You're the one
who's going to make it happen.

300
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:48,880
I feel like we need
to renegotiate these terms, yeah?

301
00:14:57,440 --> 00:14:59,640
Zweli.

302
00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:01,920
Where did Miss South Africa
get my e-mail address from?

303
00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:04,160
What?

304
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:06,320
-Miss South Africa has your e-mail?
-Yes.

305
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:08,440
Put it up. No?

306
00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:11,280
You don't want to know what I had to do
in order for me to get it.

307
00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:14,760
You probably asked
that guy from the bookshop. Didn't you?

308
00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:16,600
Yes, I asked the guy from the bookshop.

309
00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:19,040
She wants me to ghostwrite.

310
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:22,880
Apparently she's, like,
a Liana Ndlovu fan.

311
00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:26,520
That is an amazing opportunity, right?

312
00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:28,760
That's great. And your reply?

313
00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:30,840
She said no.

314
00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:34,080
Have I ever written a biography?

315
00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:36,400
You're writing nothing, Nana.

316
00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:37,720
You have not been writing.

317
00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:39,800
You've been working
on the same thing for months,

318
00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:40,920
and you need the money.

319
00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:43,320
Okay. Listen.

320
00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:45,400
A book about Thoko Duma is mega.

321
00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:47,480
And it's a bestseller. I predict that.

322
00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:49,440
I mean, Thoko was Miss South Africa.

323
00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:52,160
And then she entered Miss Universe,
but at Miss Universe, she didn't win.

324
00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:54,320
When she came back, they stripped her
of her Miss South Africa title.

325
00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:55,560
You see how it's tragic.

326
00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:57,360
-What?
-You didn't know that?

327
00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:00,120
No, it's the first time
I'm hearing it at all.

328
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:01,280
Listen to me, Nana.

329
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:05,320
This is a great opportunity.
This could be an amazing thing.

330
00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:09,000
Okay, fine.

331
00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:10,560
But, what if…

332
00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:12,400
What if she tells people that I'm Liana?

333
00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:14,840
NDA, right?

334
00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:17,720
Make her sign an NDA,
and she won't tell anyone. Problem solved.

335
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:21,120
Come on.

336
00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:27,120
She said yes! Buhle.

337
00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:29,280
-She agreed to write my book!
-Thoko, volume.

338
00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:33,040
I'm so sorry. I'ma look away.

339
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:34,960
Okay, wait, what to wear?

340
00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:38,240
I'm thinking the look should be
a blazer and sneakers.

341
00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:40,520
So she can see that I'm serious,
but not too serious. You know?

342
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:42,880
Or a dress maybe,
like a floral, flowy dress.

343
00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:45,560
Liana Ndlovu, Buhle.

344
00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:52,680
Zweli, no. You're always pressuring me
to do things I don't want to do.

345
00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:54,000
You do it all the time.

346
00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:56,200
Who said you can go ahead
and give her my e-mail address, man?

347
00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:57,560
Dude, you done with this?

348
00:16:58,040 --> 00:16:59,040
Thanks, man.

349
00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:02,680
Just go out, meet her,
and see what happens.

350
00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:04,880
There's nothing to lose.
Nothing bad will happen.

351
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:07,600
But then what if she's disappointed
that I'm Liana, you know?

352
00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:09,079
Disappointed? What do you mean?

353
00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:11,440
You are amazing. You are incredible.

354
00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:12,560
You are magnificent.

355
00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:15,800
Yeah, but, friend, of course you'll say
things like that because you're my pal.

356
00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:19,079
-And you have to say things like that.
-Not necessarily. I don't--

357
00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:21,040
-Hi!
-Hey.

358
00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:22,119
Hi.

359
00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:24,319
Hi!

360
00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:26,560
-It's me, you met in the bathroom.
-Yes.

361
00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:28,359
It was such a brief meeting. It's okay.

362
00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:29,720
No, I remember.

363
00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:33,000
So, what brings you back here?

364
00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:37,880
No, I don't mean like,
"What are you doing here?"

365
00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:41,280
I just mean, like, of course, you can come
to a bookshop if you want to.

366
00:17:41,360 --> 00:17:42,800
-Obviously.
-Hey, it's okay.

367
00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:45,440
My name is Thoko Duma.

368
00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:50,920
Don't leave me hanging, girl.

369
00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:57,000
-Hi.
-Hi.

370
00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:01,720
-You're here for Liana, right?
-Yes, I'm so nervous.

371
00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:03,480
-Where is she?
-No…

372
00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:06,880
Me… My name is Nana.

373
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:08,760
-Okay.
-I'm Liana Ndlovu's…

374
00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:11,800
I'm her assistant, yes.

375
00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:13,640
She couldn't make it today,
you understand.

376
00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:16,080
Yeah, of course. No. It's okay.

377
00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:19,080
I don't know why I thought
she'd show up for our first meeting ever.

378
00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:21,160
So silly of me.

379
00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:24,360
But that explains why you're here
and you were here the other day.

380
00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:27,600
And here I am rambling.
That's because I'm so nervous.

381
00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:29,800
That's okay.

382
00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:31,240
It's just that…

383
00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:33,160
she was needed overseas.

384
00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:37,920
Yeah, so she had to
get out the country really quickly.

385
00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:43,120
Yeah. So, it's me.
I'll be handling today's meeting. Yeah.

386
00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:44,560
Okay.

387
00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:46,600
Do you wanna grab a seat?

388
00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:49,880
-Yes, sure…
-Yeah.

389
00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:53,000
Thanks. Thank you so much.

390
00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:56,000
Would you like some coffee?

391
00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:59,320
-Listen, I would love a cup.
-Yeah. Okay.

392
00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:03,840
Look. Nana, don't worry.

393
00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:06,680
I'll make you chamomile to relax
so you can calm down.

394
00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:08,240
And give her this butterscotch cake.

395
00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:10,720
She'll love it. Please give her this cake.

396
00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:13,600
Yeah, you're good.
So, so good. You're good.

397
00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:17,840
Do you mind a little gossip?

398
00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:22,480
So you're telling me that every day,
every day, you're hanging with Liana.

399
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:25,760
What's that like?
I'm sure she's absolutely amazing.

400
00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:30,000
I hardly see her, though, you see.

401
00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:32,680
She hardly has time for anything
besides her writing.

402
00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:36,600
Don't you have, like, a picture of her
on your phone or something?

403
00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:39,200
I did sign the NDA.
I'm not gonna say anything.

404
00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:40,360
She doesn't take photos.

405
00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:42,720
Yeah, I'm sure she doe…

406
00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:45,480
Look, Nana, I'm sorry.
I'm fangirling so hard.

407
00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:47,120
I absolutely love her.

408
00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:50,200
That's fine.

409
00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:53,880
-Can we get back to the book soon, though?
-Of course.

410
00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:57,120
So what I was saying earlier is that
it's really, really important for her

411
00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:59,960
to write from the place of Liana
and not try to sound like me, you know?

412
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:03,440
Because I think her writing style is
absolutely amazing.

413
00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:06,040
Nana?

414
00:20:06,120 --> 00:20:09,440
-Are you even writing any of this down?
-Yes, of course I am.

415
00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:21,160
Yeah, and I mean, I've just…
I've always known what I like,

416
00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:22,440
and it works.

417
00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:23,800
-You have…
-What?

418
00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:26,680
-Let me get that for you.
-Thanks.

419
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:49,840
I'm grateful for your time, ma'am.

420
00:20:50,360 --> 00:20:53,920
And I'm grateful
that you gave in to this process.

421
00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:58,240
And thank you for letting me in.

422
00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:02,160
You're a beautiful spirit.

423
00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:21,480
I just came to say I'm on my way.

424
00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:23,280
Hey, okay!

425
00:21:23,360 --> 00:21:26,680
-Are we sure that this is still work?
-What do you mean, Buhle?

426
00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:29,240
Well, it's just that you've been spending
a lot of time with your researcher.

427
00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:31,280
And you've been blowing me off for weeks.

428
00:21:31,360 --> 00:21:33,600
-The drama right now. If you must know…
-Yeah.

429
00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:37,240
…I've been telling her my whole life story
starting from A, okay, all the way to Z.

430
00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:39,800
So I'm gonna spend time with her,
if that's okay with you.

431
00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:42,360
Yeah, of course.
With a full face of makeup, it seems.

432
00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:44,240
-Leave me.
-Look at you.

433
00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:45,840
All glowing.

434
00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:47,840
-Cutie. You look good though.
-Wow.

435
00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:49,280
Okay?

436
00:21:49,360 --> 00:21:51,160
Go ahead with your fine self.

437
00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:55,040
Sometimes, you know…

438
00:21:55,120 --> 00:21:59,880
you see, I dream about a life for me
that's away from the attention.

439
00:21:59,960 --> 00:22:02,280
Out of the focus of the limelight.

440
00:22:02,360 --> 00:22:05,120
Well then, you're saying
you don't like your life?

441
00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:07,240
No, don't get me wrong.

442
00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:09,120
I love what I do.

443
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:12,600
I enjoy getting to be me.
I love the life I've built for myself.

444
00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:18,440
You see, it's just that sometimes
I fear that the truth is I'm not me.

445
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:22,880
I'm hiding behind this persona
so that people don't see the real me.

446
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:27,320
So it's refreshing
to be able to talk to someone.

447
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:28,400
Honestly.

448
00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:30,680
So candidly.

449
00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:33,240
Thoko, I…

450
00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:35,000
What's up?

451
00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:42,520
Oh, my gosh.

452
00:22:43,120 --> 00:22:45,680
We've been sitting here
for a whole five hours.

453
00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:47,960
Five hours?

454
00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:51,920
It literally feels like two minutes.
That's crazy.

455
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:53,920
Okay, I think that--

456
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:56,800
Ladies, would you like me
to bring you anything else?

457
00:22:57,920 --> 00:22:59,560
We're done working, I'd say. Right?

458
00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:01,080
Can we get a drink?

459
00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:04,160
On me, Nana.

460
00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:06,880
Okay, fine.

461
00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:08,040
Yes.

462
00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:11,360
Can I please have a glass of house white?

463
00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:12,680
I'd like the same, please.

464
00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:15,080
Thank you.

465
00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:16,600
You look so beautiful.

466
00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:19,960
Stop. So do you.

467
00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:21,400
Ladies and gentlemen,

468
00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:24,000
can I have your attention, please?

469
00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:26,120
Now tonight,
we have karaoke for the couples.

470
00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:27,840
Are you guys ready?

471
00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:30,240
Right. Can I please have some numbers?

472
00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:33,920
I'm gonna choose just one table
that will come up and perform for us.

473
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:36,280
-No.
-No. It's fine.

474
00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:41,000
-The lucky table to come and sing is…
-Thoko, I won't do that.

475
00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:42,520
…table number…

476
00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:44,520
I have to go home
and mail those notes to Liana.

477
00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:47,000
-Live a little, okay?
-Table number three!

478
00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:50,920
Please give it up
for table number three. Come on, guys.

479
00:23:53,120 --> 00:23:56,480
-Come.
-There you go.

480
00:23:57,200 --> 00:23:58,400
Thank you.

481
00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:05,240
I love this song.

482
00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:10,800
Suited for each other
Suited for each other

483
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:15,080
Don't try to move me from my lover

484
00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:16,160
Yeah

485
00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:20,280
Suited for each other
Suited for each other

486
00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:25,080
Tailor made
I'm glued up on my lover

487
00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:27,880
I'll never lose him to another, yeah

488
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:30,960
When we talked on the phone
And you said that you love me

489
00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:34,200
Did you say that just for show? Yeah

490
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:40,080
I wanna scream
From the top of the rooftop

491
00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:43,920
Till you hear my love for you
I keep on rewind

492
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:45,840
I struggle to find

493
00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:47,360
New words to define

494
00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:49,080
What a love, what a love, yeah

495
00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:50,960
What a love, what a love, yeah

496
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:52,240
What a love

497
00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:53,840
What a love, what a love, yeah

498
00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:55,080
What a love

499
00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:19,640
Hi!

500
00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:21,560
-For Ms. Thoko Duma.
-That's me.

501
00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:22,640
This is for you.

502
00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:26,520
Can I ask you to sign this for me, please?

503
00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:28,920
-Okay. No problem.
-Here. Thank you.

504
00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:32,360
This pen is not working.
Let me get another one.

505
00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:34,520
-All right. Okay.
-Okay, yeah. I'll be right back.

506
00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:39,480
Aw, man, guys.

507
00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:41,120
A singer once said to me,

508
00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:43,840
"There's something about the buds of love.

509
00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:46,520
They blossom before they bloom."

510
00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:48,760
You know that sweet possibility.

511
00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:51,120
I don't know, man.
Could there be something bubbling up?

512
00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:53,000
Something is happening here, man.

513
00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:54,840
I'm not sure, or am I the only one?

514
00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:57,960
Like what? Something is happening,
but I won't say too much.

515
00:25:58,040 --> 00:25:59,080
I'll be…

516
00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:02,080
-Okay.
-And for that form…

517
00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:05,080
-Thanks, man.
-Thank you, my sister.

518
00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:06,160
All right. Have a great day.

519
00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:07,920
-You too, my sister. Thank you.
-Bye.

520
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:09,160
Thanks.

521
00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:14,200
Hi.

522
00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:17,040
-Oops.
-And now?

523
00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:21,280
-Well, I won it at karaoke.
-You?

524
00:26:21,360 --> 00:26:22,400
-Yes.
-Never.

525
00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:24,040
Suited for each other
Suited for each other

526
00:26:25,360 --> 00:26:26,200
Cute.

527
00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:27,280
You know,

528
00:26:27,360 --> 00:26:29,960
Thoko, I haven't seen you this happy
in a long time, shame.

529
00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:33,400
You know what, Buhle?
Things are starting to look up a little.

530
00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:37,960
Okay, so that means tonight
we're going to that party, right, buddy?

531
00:26:40,120 --> 00:26:41,520
-You mean today?
-Yeah.

532
00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:43,680
I don't know.

533
00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:46,920
You haven't done a single public event,
you know, since that…

534
00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:48,880
And, you know,

535
00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:51,920
this could be an opportunity
for a soft launch.

536
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:55,320
You know, private-party vibes,
celebrities will be there.

537
00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:57,840
-Networking. Come on, T.
-Buhle, I hear you, right,

538
00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:00,200
but my problem is,

539
00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:02,520
been planning a…

540
00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:04,400
-research meeting.
-Oh, my gosh.

541
00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:07,040
Just tell that researcher of yours
to come along then.

542
00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:10,720
All right? Because it seems like that's
the only way we're going to see you.

543
00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:12,720
Buhle, you know what?

544
00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:14,560
Buhle, please eat your food.

545
00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:22,720
No, parties are not my thing at all.

546
00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:25,600
No, not for work. It's just to hang out.

547
00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:29,400
And also, it would be nice for you
to be answering questions for a change.

548
00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:32,040
-No. I don't know. I… No.
-Just think, Nana.

549
00:27:32,120 --> 00:27:34,680
I promise you,
it's going to be so much fun.

550
00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:41,440
-Come on.
-Okay, fine.

551
00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:42,680
Yes!

552
00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:49,400
-I'm so excited. A little bit.
-Hey.

553
00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:56,560
Yes!

554
00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:03,720
There's a lot of celebrities
who've shown up.

555
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:06,880
Easy there, you're also a celebrity.
I'll see you now.

556
00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:10,040
-Hey, sweetie.
-Hey.

557
00:28:10,120 --> 00:28:11,400
It's been a while.

558
00:28:20,120 --> 00:28:21,840
It's really her! Yeah. Wow.

559
00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:23,000
Hi.

560
00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:32,560
This is dope.

561
00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:35,720
Yeah, and guess who the entertainment
is for these guests today.

562
00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:37,360
Small minds take pleasure in gossip.

563
00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:38,440
Ignore them.

564
00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:40,360
Yeah. Buhle, I'm gonna leave.

565
00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:41,920
-I can't do this at the moment.
-T, look.

566
00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:44,520
At some point, you're going to
have to start living your life.

567
00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:47,320
This thing of being a recluse,
it's not your game.

568
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:49,840
Okay? So let's just get a drink.

569
00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:51,840
-Okay?
-Okay. Grab a drink.

570
00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:52,800
I'll come when I'm ready.

571
00:28:53,320 --> 00:28:54,640
-Yeah. Yeah.
-Sure.

572
00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:05,280
What's up with you, sweetheart?

573
00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:08,000
-Nana.
-Sorry, what's that? Come again?

574
00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:10,560
My name is Nana, not "sweetheart."

575
00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:11,800
Relax.

576
00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:13,440
-I'm only greeting you. What's up?
-Nana.

577
00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:15,280
You finally came.

578
00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:16,880
Nana, Nana.

579
00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:22,160
So you're the mysterious
researcher who stole my friend from me.

580
00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:24,560
No, I didn't steal her.

581
00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:26,160
I'm kidding.

582
00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:27,600
It's a pleasure to meet you.

583
00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:32,200
I'm glad to meet you as well.

584
00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:34,760
I've been hearing so much about you.

585
00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:36,400
Only good things, I hope.

586
00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:38,640
Buhle, researchers never tell.

587
00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:41,120
I guess I'll find out in the book.

588
00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:44,760
Can I steal you just for a sec?
Just to make a quick intro.

589
00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:47,800
-You don't mind, right?
-I… No. I've got… I don't have a problem.

590
00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:50,040
-I'll be right back, okay?
-Okay.

591
00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:09,720
Hey, yo, Nana.

592
00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:12,400
Babe, what's it now?

593
00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:15,040
Nana, right? Not sweetheart.

594
00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:18,560
Hi.

595
00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:19,640
Mandla's my name.

596
00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:22,240
-Hi there, Mandla.
-You having a good time?

597
00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:23,360
I mean…

598
00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:26,720
licorice is pretty good.

599
00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:29,360
And you know what you're eating?
Those are edibles.

600
00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:33,200
How many have you had?

601
00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:36,560
I wasn't counting.

602
00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:38,600
Then let's put them down.

603
00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:41,720
Oh, my God.

604
00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:44,560
I've never had any drugs
in my life before!

605
00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:47,200
-You'll be fine. Just breathe.
-Okay.

606
00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:48,480
Hey.

607
00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:50,200
I tell you, I can't believe

608
00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:52,560
that I'm in this beautiful home
of Sindi Sodi.

609
00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:53,920
It's such an honor.

610
00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:56,600
Wow. The honor's all mine.

611
00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:59,160
Hey, you know,
Buhle didn't even mention it to me.

612
00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:01,200
Okay, surprise.

613
00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:02,680
-Yeah.
-I'm gonna get us more drinks.

614
00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:04,920
-Okay, cool. Thank you.
-Please do.

615
00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:07,680
You know,
Zawadi Yamungu is about to perform.

616
00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:09,160
-Love her!
-Do you want to follow me?

617
00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:10,200
Yes, please.

618
00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:12,280
Okay.

619
00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:24,120
When you see my hair, compliment it

620
00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:27,160
Because it's beautiful

621
00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:33,320
When you see my hair, compliment it

622
00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:36,000
Because it's beautiful

623
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:42,040
When you see my complexion
Compliment it

624
00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:44,880
Because it's beautiful

625
00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:49,960
My complexion

626
00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:51,800
-Is beautiful
-Is beautiful

627
00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:55,480
My breasts are beautiful

628
00:31:56,360 --> 00:31:57,960
My flat buttocks

629
00:31:58,040 --> 00:31:58,880
How is it?

630
00:31:58,960 --> 00:31:59,960
Are beautiful

631
00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:04,880
I'm beautiful
I'm beautiful

632
00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:06,880
I'm beautiful with my hair

633
00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:08,520
Even if I don't wear a frontal weave

634
00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:15,480
I'm beautiful

635
00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:17,480
Hey!

636
00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:24,920
And I can't believe that I'm here.

637
00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:26,680
I'm just such a big fan of yours.

638
00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:28,080
Well, the feeling is mutual.

639
00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:30,880
-Sindi, stop that.
-I'm serious.

640
00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:32,800
There's no need to say it
just because I did.

641
00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:34,680
I'm serious. I'm also going,

642
00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:37,720
"Wow, I can't believe I'm sitting with
Miss South Africa in my own home."

643
00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:40,000
Former Miss South Africa.

644
00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:42,600
Well, to me,
you'll always be Miss South Africa, so…

645
00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:46,760
You have the most beautiful smile.

646
00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:49,280
-Sindi Sodi.
-What?

647
00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:52,320
Why does it feel like
you are low-key trying to seduce me?

648
00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:53,880
And tell me, is it working?

649
00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:00,040
Wow.

650
00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:02,600
Sorry, Thoko, I think you need to
check up on your friend.

651
00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:05,320
-Now. Follow me.
-Gosh.

652
00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:12,680
My Thoko is beautiful

653
00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:17,400
Her eyes are beautiful

654
00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:20,560
Her legs

655
00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:22,960
Are beautiful

656
00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:24,200
Nana.

657
00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:26,040
-Okay--
-Thoko! Hey.

658
00:33:26,120 --> 00:33:27,360
Hey. Let's have that.

659
00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:29,960
Acquaintances.

660
00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:35,640
I am in love with Thoko Duma.

661
00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:41,080
And I have been since the very first day
I met her in my bookshop.

662
00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:44,120
Come. Come and tell her
face to face, baby girl.

663
00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:47,160
Okay. You know, Buhle,

664
00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:53,480
my mom always says,
"You have to be brave for love."

665
00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:54,400
-Period.
-Yeah.

666
00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:56,920
-Come.
-My shoes.

667
00:33:57,000 --> 00:33:59,080
Uh-huh, shoes.

668
00:33:59,880 --> 00:34:01,120
Show is over.

669
00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:03,960
Continue, guys.

670
00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:14,080
Nana.

671
00:34:15,159 --> 00:34:17,520
-She lives, guys.
-Thank you, Lord.

672
00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:21,239
Are you all right?

673
00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:25,719
I've got just the thing for that.

674
00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:27,199
I'll be back.

675
00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:29,880
So then,

676
00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:31,600
what happened last night?

677
00:34:31,679 --> 00:34:34,159
You really don't want to know.

678
00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:36,120
Oh, God.

679
00:34:37,679 --> 00:34:41,320
-Thoko, I'm so sorry.
-No. Please. Don't say sorry.

680
00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:46,639
I was munching on licorice.
Man, I had no clue they were edibles.

681
00:34:46,719 --> 00:34:47,760
I'm just so embarrassed.

682
00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:50,920
Don't worry about it. And, like,
it happens to the best of us, right?

683
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:52,000
She would know that.

684
00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:55,800
Here's a little something
to deal with the hangover

685
00:34:55,880 --> 00:34:57,239
and embarrassment as well.

686
00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:01,560
I'm grateful, Chef.

687
00:35:01,639 --> 00:35:04,000
And I'm sorry for the--

688
00:35:04,080 --> 00:35:07,480
No, girl, there's no need to apologize.
You actually livened the party.

689
00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:11,400
It's not a party until somebody
climbs on the table and dances

690
00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:13,840
and declares their undying love.

691
00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:17,360
Okay.

692
00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:25,960
Almost there. Yay!

693
00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:28,920
You're gonna see,
you'll be all right, my angel.

694
00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:32,600
-Okay.
-Guys.

695
00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:36,960
I'm grateful to you all,
but I'm going to have to leave.

696
00:35:37,040 --> 00:35:40,160
Okay, so please let me know
when you arrive…

697
00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:42,440
when you get home safely.

698
00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:43,920
I will.

699
00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:45,360
Nana…

700
00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:47,800
Yeah…

701
00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:50,000
Yesterday…

702
00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:55,160
did you really mean what you said?

703
00:35:56,720 --> 00:35:57,800
I said?

704
00:36:00,440 --> 00:36:02,360
You said…

705
00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:05,320
you love me.

706
00:36:07,280 --> 00:36:08,480
God, no. I…

707
00:36:09,240 --> 00:36:10,720
-No, it's okay.
-Drugs.

708
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:13,560
-Yeah.
-I wouldn't… I don't…

709
00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:14,880
No, Nana.

710
00:36:16,600 --> 00:36:19,720
It was stupid of me
to ask that from you. It's okay.

711
00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:23,800
I have to get back.

712
00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:26,200
Yeah.

713
00:36:36,720 --> 00:36:39,320
And then?
Why are you looking at me like that?

714
00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:43,680
So, there's something I need to ask.

715
00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:47,000
So, my guest for today
just canceled on me.

716
00:36:47,080 --> 00:36:49,080
Called me out of the blue
and said she can't come.

717
00:36:49,160 --> 00:36:51,880
And I only have two hours
until it's time for me to shoot.

718
00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:53,440
This is perfect, T.

719
00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:56,520
I mean, who better to team up with
than Sindi your first TV experience?

720
00:36:56,600 --> 00:36:57,440
Exactly.

721
00:36:58,040 --> 00:37:00,560
Buhle, see, I'm just not ready.

722
00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:01,600
I'm begging you.

723
00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:03,640
I'll be in your debt forever.
Please help a sister out.

724
00:37:03,720 --> 00:37:05,680
-Sister, help her out. Please.
-Please.

725
00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:08,560
Who leaves edibles out like that

726
00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:11,520
just for anyone to come
and help themselves? My goodness!

727
00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:13,720
Without giving even a warning
or a sign that says,

728
00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:16,320
"Warning, edibles."

729
00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:19,120
We now have to put warning signs
on edibles?

730
00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:21,280
The question we should be asking is,

731
00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:25,400
"Who? Who on earth would just
go ahead like that and eat edibles?"

732
00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:27,480
And people
who don't help themselves to licorice,

733
00:37:27,560 --> 00:37:29,840
those people have problems
just like you, so…

734
00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:33,360
Zweli.

735
00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:35,600
The crazy things you do.

736
00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:38,200
But besides all of that, like…

737
00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:43,160
at least you told about her how you feel

738
00:37:43,240 --> 00:37:44,760
and came out of hiding.

739
00:37:45,480 --> 00:37:47,440
So, how'd it go, then?

740
00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:50,880
What?

741
00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:54,280
So, she asked me if I meant it,
and I panicked.

742
00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:56,960
Why? You said you like her
so much though. You said you--

743
00:37:57,040 --> 00:37:59,080
Yeah, but I embarrassed her.

744
00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:01,920
And on top of that,
I know she doesn't feel the same way.

745
00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:04,640
-And where exactly did you get that?
-Because I can read people.

746
00:38:05,240 --> 00:38:08,240
And in any case,
whoa, like, Miss South Africa.

747
00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:10,000
Former Miss South Africa.

748
00:38:10,080 --> 00:38:12,040
And I can't even tell her that I'm Liana,

749
00:38:12,120 --> 00:38:15,520
I've never gone partying,
I'm not groovy, I'm bookish,

750
00:38:15,600 --> 00:38:17,680
and I've never even kissed anybody.
Not even once.

751
00:38:18,720 --> 00:38:21,200
-We're worlds apart, Zweli.
-Look,

752
00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:26,360
I just want you to know that
I am immensely proud of you right now.

753
00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:27,280
Understand?

754
00:38:27,960 --> 00:38:31,040
And if you're right,
and she doesn't want you, it's her loss.

755
00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:34,920
I guess.

756
00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:38,840
So, Nana,

757
00:38:38,920 --> 00:38:40,800
have you never really been kissed before?

758
00:38:40,880 --> 00:38:43,480
Can I have some coffee, please, Zweli?
A strong one.

759
00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:45,800
Would you like some licorice with that?

760
00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:52,120
As you can see,

761
00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:55,480
I don't like using the brush.

762
00:38:55,560 --> 00:38:57,600
I prefer using my hands like this, see?

763
00:38:57,680 --> 00:39:01,360
Because I prefer
when I'm connecting with my work.

764
00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:03,160
You know, I feel like

765
00:39:04,120 --> 00:39:05,520
the brush,

766
00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:08,280
I don't know,
it's a bit impersonal for me. So--

767
00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:10,120
-I see.
-Yeah. See?

768
00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:11,840
This is why I use my hands.
Do you wanna try?

769
00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:14,560
-Yes.
-Of course, yeah. I can tell.

770
00:39:15,440 --> 00:39:16,640
-Okay.
-Yes. Let's see. Both hands.

771
00:39:18,040 --> 00:39:19,800
-Yeah?
-Don't be so rough all the time.

772
00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:21,640
Better slowly. Gently.

773
00:39:22,720 --> 00:39:25,920
-Okay. Yes.
-Gentle. Right.

774
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:27,800
You must take your time with it.

775
00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:30,600
-Okay.
-The thigh as well?

776
00:39:31,200 --> 00:39:33,440
And then massage the thigh right up.

777
00:39:33,520 --> 00:39:34,520
-Okay. Yes.
-Yeah.

778
00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:37,440
Just massage it in like that.

779
00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:39,080
Nicely.

780
00:39:43,880 --> 00:39:45,040
That was so good.

781
00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:46,160
It's my pleasure.

782
00:39:46,240 --> 00:39:49,520
It's so good,
I may ask you for a little takeaway.

783
00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:52,560
-I'll put one together. No worries at all.
-Thank you.

784
00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:56,440
Now tell us, our dearest,
lovely, Miss South Africa.

785
00:39:58,080 --> 00:39:59,800
-What happened during Miss Universe?
-Here we go.

786
00:39:59,880 --> 00:40:02,280
I knew you wouldn't wrap this up
without bringing that up.

787
00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:06,600
No, I want to know,
and the people also want to know.

788
00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:09,360
Well, do you still stand by
the words that you said?

789
00:40:12,040 --> 00:40:13,160
Come on.

790
00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:15,120
Okay. Right,

791
00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:18,320
I think there's a lot that we need
to unpack about that night.

792
00:40:19,720 --> 00:40:23,360
And we don't have enough time
to dive into the topic today.

793
00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:25,320
You know, it's a tricky one, I must admit.

794
00:40:25,400 --> 00:40:29,320
I am, however, writing a tell-all book
that will be out soon.

795
00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:32,120
But, in the time being,
I do want to say this.

796
00:40:34,520 --> 00:40:37,960
I want to apologize
to the whole of South Africa

797
00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:39,200
for how I handled myself.

798
00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:40,800
I'm sorry to Miss Kenya,

799
00:40:40,880 --> 00:40:43,400
and I'm also sorry
to all the kids that look up to me.

800
00:40:43,480 --> 00:40:47,360
I do know that my behavior
was not good at all.

801
00:40:59,600 --> 00:41:01,560
So, you were
actually into this girl, then?

802
00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:03,920
Don't say that, Buhle.

803
00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:08,360
No, I just mean I think, you know,
she wasn't your type.

804
00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:11,240
Well, yes,
she is a little anxious, I won't lie,

805
00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:13,480
but, yet, she can also be so calm.

806
00:41:13,560 --> 00:41:15,880
I feel so comfortable when I'm with her.

807
00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:18,440
I felt like Thoko, you know?
Thoko, the real me.

808
00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:23,280
Nana doesn't care at all about celebrity.

809
00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:25,640
She stays at home and reads her books.

810
00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:28,720
So why would she go out with me?

811
00:41:28,800 --> 00:41:31,280
Come on. It's her loss. You're a catch.

812
00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:34,320
And Sindi is smart
because she matches that in you.

813
00:41:34,400 --> 00:41:37,640
Yeah, I was so surprised
when she asked me on a date. I was like…

814
00:41:37,720 --> 00:41:39,000
She's a good person.

815
00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:40,800
And I can tell
you guys are gonna get along.

816
00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:41,880
Yeah, maybe.

817
00:41:45,520 --> 00:41:47,920
Don't be scared, Thoko! Come! I'm here!

818
00:41:57,680 --> 00:41:58,800
Do you know that people actually

819
00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:01,960
-really loved that episode of yours?
-Well, those people

820
00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:06,080
-are just hungry for drama.
-I'm serious. People love you. Really.

821
00:42:06,160 --> 00:42:07,720
I don't believe you. No way.

822
00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:09,080
-You don't believe me?
-No, I don't.

823
00:42:09,160 --> 00:42:10,480
But look at the comments.

824
00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:13,560
-Read them.
-Okay.

825
00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:15,800
I'll see what they've been saying.

826
00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:21,640
"Say what you want to say about Thoko,
but she's the prettiest Miss SA."

827
00:42:21,720 --> 00:42:23,960
You see?
And you thought I was lying to you, girl.

828
00:42:24,040 --> 00:42:25,320
-Uh-uh.
-Uh-huh.

829
00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:26,400
Next one.

830
00:42:26,480 --> 00:42:29,240
"The sight of Thoko
was a breath of fresh air,

831
00:42:29,320 --> 00:42:33,120
but I wouldn't leave her alone
in the kitchen."

832
00:42:33,720 --> 00:42:35,240
Yeah. I don't know about that one…

833
00:42:35,320 --> 00:42:37,000
-Wow.
-…but, you know, also,

834
00:42:37,080 --> 00:42:39,520
that episode of yours had the most views.

835
00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:42,000
-Really?
-For real. I'm serious.

836
00:42:42,080 --> 00:42:43,280
People really love you, my babe.

837
00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:46,320
Hectic. Wow. That's crazy.

838
00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:50,160
I want to get to know you, Thoko.

839
00:42:51,080 --> 00:42:53,200
That is very direct.

840
00:42:53,280 --> 00:42:55,080
I mean, isn't that always the best option?

841
00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:56,800
Fair.

842
00:42:56,880 --> 00:42:58,040
But then, though,

843
00:42:58,120 --> 00:43:00,520
what happens if I already have someone
in the picture already?

844
00:43:00,600 --> 00:43:02,240
And how do you know there isn't anyone?

845
00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:04,000
Okay. Is there someone, then?

846
00:43:05,040 --> 00:43:06,040
No.

847
00:43:06,600 --> 00:43:09,960
So meaning you won't have a problem
with me posting these vids from today?

848
00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:11,240
Post, yeah!

849
00:43:26,080 --> 00:43:28,520
Wow, Chef Sindi and Miss SA

850
00:43:28,600 --> 00:43:30,360
make such a cute couple.

851
00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:36,320
We're having the best time…

852
00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:37,800
-Hey.
-…at the water park.

853
00:43:48,560 --> 00:43:50,080
Listen, Nana.

854
00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:53,960
Don't jump to conclusions
when you look at those posts.

855
00:43:54,920 --> 00:43:57,920
Journalists will write
anything to sell papers.

856
00:44:07,320 --> 00:44:10,280
Zweli, just go to band practice.

857
00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:15,760
Okay.

858
00:44:36,760 --> 00:44:40,720
I think that the biggest influence
on me has been my mom.

859
00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:45,240
You know, like my go-getting spirit,
my sense of style. I got it all from her.

860
00:44:46,480 --> 00:44:47,480
Yeah.

861
00:44:49,600 --> 00:44:53,960
So you've never
spoken about your love life.

862
00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:56,880
For the book, you know.

863
00:44:57,960 --> 00:44:58,960
Well…

864
00:44:59,680 --> 00:45:01,880
I've been single for years now,
not dating.

865
00:45:01,960 --> 00:45:05,240
My focus has been mainly,
you know, pageants. Really, only those.

866
00:45:05,320 --> 00:45:08,160
So, currently, you're not seeing anyone
at the moment?

867
00:45:09,240 --> 00:45:10,760
Not really, no.

868
00:45:11,600 --> 00:45:12,760
Sindi?

869
00:45:13,480 --> 00:45:15,040
Chef Sindi, I think

870
00:45:15,800 --> 00:45:17,760
we've just been getting
to know each other.

871
00:45:17,840 --> 00:45:20,280
For some reason, people are
interested in our relationship, I guess.

872
00:45:20,880 --> 00:45:23,400
Plus, it works for both our brands.

873
00:45:24,080 --> 00:45:25,680
And she's a nice person.

874
00:45:26,320 --> 00:45:27,640
I just thought now.

875
00:45:27,720 --> 00:45:31,160
Actually, this weekend, there's an event,

876
00:45:31,240 --> 00:45:33,080
and I would love it if you came with me.

877
00:45:35,080 --> 00:45:37,440
Okay, it's fine if you can't come.

878
00:45:37,520 --> 00:45:39,880
-I understa--
-Okay.

879
00:45:39,960 --> 00:45:41,040
I'll come.

880
00:45:43,360 --> 00:45:44,480
Cheers to that.

881
00:45:53,360 --> 00:45:55,760
I know I said that… I had said to you

882
00:45:55,840 --> 00:45:58,280
that it was the edibles
that made me dance on top of the roof,

883
00:45:58,360 --> 00:46:00,960
but I really like you. I do.
I really, really love you.

884
00:46:01,040 --> 00:46:03,360
Nana Liana Ndlovu!

885
00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:06,720
You, my girl, are a badass!

886
00:46:06,800 --> 00:46:09,480
You've won the awards,
and now it's time to win the girl.

887
00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:14,480
I mean, of course,
she must be in love with you also.

888
00:46:14,560 --> 00:46:16,520
Otherwise, she wouldn't
have asked you, right?

889
00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:18,280
Thank you.

890
00:46:23,600 --> 00:46:24,440
Hi.

891
00:46:24,520 --> 00:46:26,160
-I'm outside.
-Yeah?

892
00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:29,200
By the carpet. Where are you?

893
00:46:33,080 --> 00:46:36,280
Oh, my God.

894
00:46:36,360 --> 00:46:38,440
Thoko, I'm going to faint!

895
00:46:40,120 --> 00:46:42,400
Nana, is that you?

896
00:46:44,600 --> 00:46:45,760
You look amazing.

897
00:46:45,840 --> 00:46:47,640
You look beautiful.

898
00:46:47,720 --> 00:46:49,920
Please turn around
so I can see you properly.

899
00:46:50,000 --> 00:46:51,720
Like, do one turn so I…

900
00:46:53,800 --> 00:46:55,240
Oh, my God.

901
00:46:55,920 --> 00:46:57,920
-You like making me feel shy.
-Thoko.

902
00:46:58,000 --> 00:47:01,280
-I've been looking for you.
-I came to fetch our Nana.

903
00:47:01,360 --> 00:47:03,920
Nana, this is Sindi. Sindi, Nana.

904
00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:05,520
Sindi is a renowned chef.

905
00:47:05,600 --> 00:47:09,680
And Nana is the great Liana Ndlovu's
research assistant.

906
00:47:09,760 --> 00:47:11,880
I remember her.
She made quite the impression.

907
00:47:12,400 --> 00:47:14,400
I'm so sorry about that again.

908
00:47:14,960 --> 00:47:16,760
There's no need to apologize at all.

909
00:47:16,840 --> 00:47:18,680
Thoko, we have to do
the red carpet together.

910
00:47:18,760 --> 00:47:19,960
Yeah.

911
00:47:20,640 --> 00:47:22,320
So, please
would you just hold this for us?

912
00:47:22,400 --> 00:47:23,800
-Just five minutes.
-Yeah.

913
00:47:23,880 --> 00:47:25,400
All right. Come on. Let's go, then.

914
00:47:25,480 --> 00:47:26,720
Okay.

915
00:47:40,680 --> 00:47:44,080
Well,
SA wants to know, are you two dating?

916
00:47:44,160 --> 00:47:45,160
Yes, we are.

917
00:48:19,720 --> 00:48:20,720
No, Sindi,

918
00:48:20,800 --> 00:48:23,600
what I really do not understand
is you lying out in public.

919
00:48:23,680 --> 00:48:25,760
What do you mean?
Have we not been spending time together?

920
00:48:25,840 --> 00:48:27,240
I thought we liked each other, Thoko.

921
00:48:27,320 --> 00:48:29,640
Going on a few dates
means we're in a relationship now?

922
00:48:29,720 --> 00:48:31,160
-Wow. Okay. All right.
-Good grief!

923
00:48:31,240 --> 00:48:32,560
Sure, all right.

924
00:48:32,640 --> 00:48:37,160
Maybe I got a bit ahead of myself there
and said something.

925
00:48:37,240 --> 00:48:40,280
But would it be so bad
if we actually were dating?

926
00:48:40,360 --> 00:48:41,840
Then you should have asked me, Sindi.

927
00:48:41,920 --> 00:48:44,280
You don't just tell the whole world
that we're dating.

928
00:48:44,360 --> 00:48:46,720
-My--
-Hey. Guys, guys, guys, guys!

929
00:48:48,560 --> 00:48:49,560
What's going on?

930
00:48:49,640 --> 00:48:50,640
Thoko,

931
00:48:51,280 --> 00:48:54,280
I saw an opportunity and I took it, okay?

932
00:48:54,360 --> 00:48:56,360
Our kiss is trending
all over social media.

933
00:48:56,440 --> 00:48:57,960
I don't understand why you can't see

934
00:48:58,040 --> 00:49:00,080
that this is working
for us right now, my angel.

935
00:49:00,160 --> 00:49:01,760
-What's the problem?
-That is my problem.

936
00:49:01,840 --> 00:49:04,760
I'm going to write a public statement
and tell everyone that you're a liar!

937
00:49:04,840 --> 00:49:07,000
-No, you can't do that.
-Buhle, this is none of your business!

938
00:49:07,080 --> 00:49:08,760
-T, listen to me.
-Oh, God.

939
00:49:09,840 --> 00:49:12,160
Elite Properties wants
to give you an endorsement deal.

940
00:49:13,400 --> 00:49:15,400
A penthouse, fully furnished.

941
00:49:16,520 --> 00:49:20,240
Monthly stipend, two cars,
two vacations each year. Guys, come on.

942
00:49:20,320 --> 00:49:23,280
The company wants to show that
young couples can also buy property.

943
00:49:23,360 --> 00:49:27,280
But the only reason that you guys
have this deal is because you're official.

944
00:49:27,360 --> 00:49:29,240
-This is amazing.
-I know.

945
00:49:29,320 --> 00:49:32,200
T, it can help you
pay for your book release.

946
00:49:33,320 --> 00:49:34,400
Think about it.

947
00:49:38,160 --> 00:49:41,200
Nana, it's Zweli. Please open the door.

948
00:49:47,920 --> 00:49:49,240
Nana?

949
00:49:53,160 --> 00:49:54,240
Nana?

950
00:49:55,720 --> 00:49:57,280
Please open the door, my friend.

951
00:49:58,680 --> 00:50:01,440
-Nana.
-Go away, Zweli.

952
00:50:05,560 --> 00:50:08,560
Please, my friend.
Just please open the door.

953
00:50:08,640 --> 00:50:12,320
Let's talk about it. Talk to me.
What's going on? Please, Nana.

954
00:50:35,520 --> 00:50:38,000
All right, guys, this is your new place.

955
00:50:39,480 --> 00:50:40,480
So awesome!

956
00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:45,440
Yeah, that's beautiful.

957
00:50:45,520 --> 00:50:46,640
Hold on.

958
00:51:24,000 --> 00:51:26,120
Yes.

959
00:51:39,760 --> 00:51:43,360
It doesn't mean you're happy
if you're posting long paragraphs.

960
00:51:43,440 --> 00:51:46,880
The longer the post,
the harder the relationship.

961
00:51:46,960 --> 00:51:50,720
All these, "Love lives here,"
nice content, lovely?

962
00:51:50,800 --> 00:51:52,440
It's not the truth, my love.

963
00:51:52,520 --> 00:51:56,000
You'll get burned out there.
Dating is not for the fainthearted.

964
00:51:56,080 --> 00:51:57,280
Ha!

965
00:52:10,000 --> 00:52:12,760
The number you
have dialed is not available at present.

966
00:52:12,840 --> 00:52:14,920
Please leave a message and then hang up.

967
00:52:15,720 --> 00:52:16,760
Hey.

968
00:52:17,560 --> 00:52:20,520
It's been so many weeks now,
and I don't even know what I did.

969
00:52:21,680 --> 00:52:23,040
I miss you.

970
00:52:24,400 --> 00:52:25,960
Can you please just back to me?

971
00:52:35,280 --> 00:52:38,280
Hi, Thoko. I hope all is well on your end.

972
00:52:38,360 --> 00:52:39,800
I'm sending this to let you know

973
00:52:39,880 --> 00:52:42,120
that I've handed
all research material to Liana.

974
00:52:42,200 --> 00:52:45,040
If she has any questions,
she'll contact you directly.

975
00:52:45,960 --> 00:52:47,520
My part in this process is done.

976
00:52:48,840 --> 00:52:52,200
A hard copy of the manuscript
will be sent to you once it's ready.

977
00:52:52,280 --> 00:52:53,560
Regards, Nana.

978
00:53:10,120 --> 00:53:13,440
So, I just figured it's best
to cut all ties with her.

979
00:53:13,520 --> 00:53:16,240
No contact at all from now on.
Just like that.

980
00:53:16,320 --> 00:53:17,600
So, what about the book?

981
00:53:18,480 --> 00:53:22,360
To be candid with you, I got
what I needed a long time ago.

982
00:53:22,440 --> 00:53:25,200
I just really enjoyed
hanging out with her.

983
00:53:26,520 --> 00:53:27,520
Are you okay?

984
00:53:30,160 --> 00:53:31,160
Yeah.

985
00:53:32,040 --> 00:53:33,320
I've cried.

986
00:53:33,400 --> 00:53:34,840
I've grieved her.

987
00:53:35,520 --> 00:53:37,960
And now I'm over it.

988
00:53:55,360 --> 00:53:56,600
So sweet.

989
00:53:58,800 --> 00:53:59,960
Follow the clues,

990
00:54:00,800 --> 00:54:02,120
and come meet me.

991
00:54:02,200 --> 00:54:04,360
Please, dress to the nines.

992
00:54:05,080 --> 00:54:09,280
Then solve the riddle
to which your chariot awaits.

993
00:54:10,800 --> 00:54:14,840
I run on my two feet
and also my two wheels.

994
00:54:16,480 --> 00:54:19,440
A run and a jump.

995
00:54:20,200 --> 00:54:25,760
A sure way for a cool ride
in the summer heat.

996
00:54:32,640 --> 00:54:33,760
Hi.

997
00:54:48,720 --> 00:54:49,720
Sindi.

998
00:54:52,160 --> 00:54:53,480
What is all of this?

999
00:54:53,560 --> 00:54:54,960
You're so lovely.

1000
00:54:55,040 --> 00:54:57,680
No. You did not answer me.

1001
00:54:57,760 --> 00:54:58,880
What's all this?

1002
00:55:00,840 --> 00:55:01,840
Thoko,

1003
00:55:03,240 --> 00:55:05,480
I've been going about this all wrong.

1004
00:55:06,640 --> 00:55:09,280
I've been so focused on

1005
00:55:09,880 --> 00:55:11,600
what people think about us,

1006
00:55:12,400 --> 00:55:14,560
what our relationship looks like
on the outside.

1007
00:55:14,640 --> 00:55:18,000
And I've neglected
what you feel like on the inside.

1008
00:55:19,440 --> 00:55:21,480
You deserve so much more than that.

1009
00:55:23,320 --> 00:55:27,440
You are the most amazing person
I've ever met.

1010
00:55:28,040 --> 00:55:30,680
And there's no one else
who has a heart like yours.

1011
00:55:33,320 --> 00:55:36,520
Please, would you give me another chance?

1012
00:55:38,120 --> 00:55:39,920
So I can do better, you know?

1013
00:55:41,560 --> 00:55:43,720
Step back from the cameras,

1014
00:55:43,800 --> 00:55:46,640
social media, and make it about us.

1015
00:55:46,720 --> 00:55:47,880
Not about our brands.

1016
00:55:47,960 --> 00:55:49,560
Who we are to each other.

1017
00:55:50,200 --> 00:55:52,000
And how well we treat each other.

1018
00:55:53,280 --> 00:55:56,160
And please, Thoko,
I promise you that I'll work harder

1019
00:55:56,240 --> 00:55:58,120
to be a better partner to you, okay?

1020
00:56:05,760 --> 00:56:08,400
Okay, I'm willing to try.

1021
00:56:08,480 --> 00:56:10,120
-Really?
-Yeah.

1022
00:56:10,200 --> 00:56:11,280
Yeah?

1023
00:56:14,760 --> 00:56:16,960
-Hey, so what's all this?
-Who knows?

1024
00:56:18,520 --> 00:56:21,480
I saw it and thought
it might be romantic. Atmospheric.

1025
00:56:22,520 --> 00:56:24,800
We'll see what happens.
Let's go in the water.

1026
00:56:27,120 --> 00:56:28,720
Don't fall. Okay.

1027
00:56:28,800 --> 00:56:30,920
Wow.

1028
00:57:58,360 --> 00:58:00,160
I say that's enough now, my girl.

1029
00:58:00,240 --> 00:58:01,560
I'm working here.

1030
00:58:01,640 --> 00:58:03,600
Uh-uh. You're not working.

1031
00:58:03,680 --> 00:58:05,680
You're avoiding the world,
hiding from people,

1032
00:58:05,760 --> 00:58:08,200
so you're going to get up
and get back out there right now.

1033
00:58:08,280 --> 00:58:11,440
I can't, Ma. I cannot go back out there.
It's a mess out there.

1034
00:58:13,240 --> 00:58:14,880
But this is all my fault, my girl.

1035
00:58:16,640 --> 00:58:19,560
I protected you too much as a child.

1036
00:58:19,640 --> 00:58:21,880
I was just so scared
at the thought of losing you.

1037
00:58:21,960 --> 00:58:24,560
That was the biggest mistake
I've ever made.

1038
00:58:25,480 --> 00:58:28,440
Don't let my mistake
be the one that guides your life.

1039
00:58:28,520 --> 00:58:30,040
You just go for it.

1040
00:58:48,280 --> 00:58:49,280
You know…

1041
00:58:50,880 --> 00:58:53,680
I was thinking about it
the other day, you see.

1042
00:58:53,760 --> 00:58:57,400
Like, among people,
you get main characters, right?

1043
00:58:57,480 --> 00:58:58,480
Like,

1044
00:58:59,280 --> 00:59:00,800
some beautiful people,

1045
00:59:00,880 --> 00:59:02,560
who are funny too,

1046
00:59:02,640 --> 00:59:03,920
that are sexy

1047
00:59:04,480 --> 00:59:06,200
and loved by everyone.

1048
00:59:06,280 --> 00:59:09,240
And then become Miss South Africa.

1049
00:59:09,320 --> 00:59:12,160
And then end up dating, you know,
Miss South Africa.

1050
00:59:14,080 --> 00:59:15,600
And then there are people like us.

1051
00:59:16,880 --> 00:59:18,800
Like, extras.

1052
00:59:19,440 --> 00:59:21,640
Forgettable faces in people's lives.

1053
00:59:22,480 --> 00:59:25,600
-Okay.
-No, no offense.

1054
00:59:25,680 --> 00:59:28,600
I thought we were here chilling, enjoying,
we are having a good time.

1055
00:59:28,680 --> 00:59:30,240
But actually, now you say this?

1056
00:59:31,440 --> 00:59:35,200
Yeah, well, you also thought
that crypto is not a scam.

1057
00:59:35,280 --> 00:59:37,080
I don't think you can judge your judgment.

1058
00:59:39,920 --> 00:59:41,280
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

1059
00:59:41,360 --> 00:59:44,840
Listen. Crypto is legit.
I'm being serious here.

1060
00:59:47,800 --> 00:59:49,880
Okay, excuse me. I'm going to the toilet.

1061
00:59:50,520 --> 00:59:52,440
Please don't go anywhere. Please.

1062
00:59:52,520 --> 00:59:53,880
I won't do that to you again.

1063
00:59:54,920 --> 00:59:55,920
I'll be back.

1064
01:00:41,920 --> 01:00:43,080
Coming.

1065
01:00:47,240 --> 01:00:48,400
-How are you?
-Hello, ma'am, how are you?

1066
01:00:48,480 --> 01:00:49,760
-I'm good.
-I'm well, ma'am.

1067
01:00:50,440 --> 01:00:53,480
Sorry to bother.
I have a parcel for Miss Duma.

1068
01:00:53,560 --> 01:00:54,720
-That's me.
-That's you?

1069
01:00:55,640 --> 01:00:57,360
-Here's your package.
-Right.

1070
01:00:57,440 --> 01:00:58,880
-Have a great day, ma'am.
-Same to you.

1071
01:00:58,960 --> 01:01:00,120
-Thank you.
-Bye.

1072
01:01:15,600 --> 01:01:16,600
No way.

1073
01:01:34,120 --> 01:01:35,920
There you go.

1074
01:01:36,000 --> 01:01:39,840
-Thank you, my Zwe.
-Enjoy.

1075
01:01:43,800 --> 01:01:45,160
A painful end of a chapter.

1076
01:01:47,160 --> 01:01:50,200
Painful end, that's for sure,
but it's a relief.

1077
01:01:50,280 --> 01:01:51,280
Yeah.

1078
01:01:54,240 --> 01:01:56,400
Look, I know it still hurts a lot.

1079
01:02:01,720 --> 01:02:02,720
Hey.

1080
01:02:04,000 --> 01:02:05,400
Maybe…

1081
01:02:05,480 --> 01:02:09,560
Maybe my next book down the line
will be a heartbreak trilogy.

1082
01:02:14,080 --> 01:02:15,720
Yeah.

1083
01:02:21,160 --> 01:02:22,520
Zweli, thank you.

1084
01:02:43,480 --> 01:02:44,680
Hey.

1085
01:02:46,720 --> 01:02:47,840
Hey.

1086
01:02:47,920 --> 01:02:49,320
Are you all right?

1087
01:02:49,400 --> 01:02:51,640
-Yeah.
-Yeah?

1088
01:02:53,560 --> 01:02:56,120
I just finished reading
the manuscript of my book.

1089
01:02:56,720 --> 01:02:58,160
-It's so beautiful.
-Yeah?

1090
01:02:59,600 --> 01:03:02,680
-Please read it.
-Okay.

1091
01:03:05,520 --> 01:03:06,360
Wait.

1092
01:03:07,400 --> 01:03:08,400
Hello?

1093
01:03:09,720 --> 01:03:10,720
Yeah.

1094
01:03:10,800 --> 01:03:12,120
I'll read it.

1095
01:03:16,120 --> 01:03:18,440
Yeah, sure, we can talk.
I'm not that busy.

1096
01:03:35,880 --> 01:03:37,000
I'm not here.

1097
01:03:37,480 --> 01:03:38,760
I'm not here.

1098
01:03:45,240 --> 01:03:46,920
-Hi.
-Hey.

1099
01:03:47,000 --> 01:03:49,600
-How are you?
-I'm okay, thanks. How are you?

1100
01:03:49,680 --> 01:03:50,680
I'm good.

1101
01:03:51,880 --> 01:03:53,640
You seen Nana?

1102
01:03:57,320 --> 01:03:58,800
Okay…

1103
01:03:59,960 --> 01:04:02,360
Can I have a cappuccino?

1104
01:04:03,400 --> 01:04:05,360
-Yeah.
-Cappuccino. Coming right up.

1105
01:04:06,040 --> 01:04:07,520
Please, grab a seat.

1106
01:04:23,000 --> 01:04:25,760
The number you have dialed
is not available at present.

1107
01:04:25,840 --> 01:04:27,840
Please leave a message and then hang up.

1108
01:04:33,040 --> 01:04:34,680
-All right.
-One cappuccino.

1109
01:04:34,760 --> 01:04:36,440
Thank you.

1110
01:04:37,360 --> 01:04:39,280
Is there anything else I can get for you?

1111
01:04:40,480 --> 01:04:41,480
No.

1112
01:04:43,080 --> 01:04:45,320
Do you know, perhaps,
what time she'll be back? Nana?

1113
01:04:45,400 --> 01:04:46,400
No.

1114
01:04:47,880 --> 01:04:48,800
'Kay.

1115
01:05:09,320 --> 01:05:11,040
So, this is where you've been hiding?

1116
01:05:12,520 --> 01:05:13,840
Nana,

1117
01:05:14,760 --> 01:05:16,360
tell me what's up.

1118
01:05:17,880 --> 01:05:18,880
What should I say?

1119
01:05:18,960 --> 01:05:20,800
You just disappeared.

1120
01:05:20,880 --> 01:05:23,960
I've tried phoning, sent SMSes, emails.
Nothing.

1121
01:05:24,880 --> 01:05:26,560
All my work with you was over.

1122
01:05:27,240 --> 01:05:28,240
Nana,

1123
01:05:28,920 --> 01:05:31,000
you speak as if
there was just work between us.

1124
01:05:31,080 --> 01:05:32,440
Come on now.

1125
01:05:32,520 --> 01:05:35,000
But what else was there
besides the work between us two?

1126
01:05:37,400 --> 01:05:38,400
I mean…

1127
01:05:38,960 --> 01:05:41,000
-Okay then.
-No, Nana.

1128
01:05:42,240 --> 01:05:44,040
Please tell me what it is I did.

1129
01:05:45,240 --> 01:05:48,080
Well, actually, Thoko,
what do you want here?

1130
01:05:48,160 --> 01:05:49,560
Well,

1131
01:05:49,640 --> 01:05:52,080
I got the manuscript, and I wanted
to come and find you to celebrate.

1132
01:05:52,160 --> 01:05:53,160
Why?

1133
01:05:53,240 --> 01:05:54,920
Why don't you go celebrate
with your girl now?

1134
01:05:55,000 --> 01:05:56,120
Nana, I--

1135
01:05:56,200 --> 01:05:57,680
No, Thoko.

1136
01:05:57,760 --> 01:06:00,360
I know who I am in this story.

1137
01:06:00,440 --> 01:06:02,480
I'm the girl who ends up alone,

1138
01:06:02,560 --> 01:06:06,440
while you, Miss Beauty Queen,
get everything you want.

1139
01:06:07,240 --> 01:06:08,240
Nana--

1140
01:06:08,320 --> 01:06:12,480
You invited me, that one moment,
out on a date,

1141
01:06:13,000 --> 01:06:15,360
only to ignore me the entire night

1142
01:06:15,440 --> 01:06:17,280
and have me holding the bags
for the two of you.

1143
01:06:17,360 --> 01:06:20,960
I boldly asked you, I asked you,
if you were seeing anyone then.

1144
01:06:21,040 --> 01:06:22,960
So then you flat-out lied.

1145
01:06:23,040 --> 01:06:25,800
-You humiliated me.
-No, but I didn't know. I d--

1146
01:06:25,880 --> 01:06:27,480
I loved you.

1147
01:06:28,000 --> 01:06:29,920
-And you knew that.
-Nana, that's not fair.

1148
01:06:30,000 --> 01:06:31,480
I asked you if you loved me,
and you said no.

1149
01:06:31,560 --> 01:06:32,840
I was mortified then.

1150
01:06:32,920 --> 01:06:34,680
I was as high as a kite.

1151
01:06:34,760 --> 01:06:37,280
That's not how I wanted to tell you
I was in love with you.

1152
01:06:37,880 --> 01:06:40,800
I was willing to come clean.

1153
01:06:43,360 --> 01:06:45,040
And maybe I was ready to tell you…

1154
01:06:47,040 --> 01:06:50,160
The reason why you haven't met Liana is…

1155
01:06:51,240 --> 01:06:52,440
'cause, you see, I'm Liana.

1156
01:06:56,560 --> 01:06:58,760
I was willing to trust you
with that secret, Thoko.

1157
01:06:58,840 --> 01:07:00,040
Wait now.

1158
01:07:00,120 --> 01:07:02,000
Wait, you are Liana?

1159
01:07:06,080 --> 01:07:08,720
I really did feel bad about lying to you.

1160
01:07:10,280 --> 01:07:12,400
But not anymore, because clearly, you see,

1161
01:07:13,000 --> 01:07:15,240
between us,
I was not the only one making things up.

1162
01:07:15,320 --> 01:07:16,360
Nana.

1163
01:07:16,920 --> 01:07:20,000
Thoko, you've got your manuscript in hand.

1164
01:07:22,040 --> 01:07:24,160
So, let's…

1165
01:07:26,480 --> 01:07:27,840
let's just leave it here.

1166
01:07:35,680 --> 01:07:38,600
-Yeah, you see, this side.
-Yeah.

1167
01:07:38,680 --> 01:07:41,320
-The whole angle. Yeah.
-I want to see the colors of the…

1168
01:07:44,680 --> 01:07:45,680
I think that's okay.

1169
01:07:45,760 --> 01:07:48,320
T! Hey, T. We're here.

1170
01:07:54,400 --> 01:07:55,600
Here she comes.

1171
01:07:57,160 --> 01:07:58,280
What's going on?

1172
01:07:58,360 --> 01:07:59,960
-Should I tell her, or will you?
-Okay.

1173
01:08:00,040 --> 01:08:02,280
You're about to love me a whole lot more.

1174
01:08:02,360 --> 01:08:05,960
Now then, the two of you
are going to get your very own

1175
01:08:06,040 --> 01:08:08,160
reality show!

1176
01:08:08,240 --> 01:08:10,440
-Our very own reality show.
-We did it, T.

1177
01:08:10,520 --> 01:08:12,080
Can you believe it?

1178
01:08:14,040 --> 01:08:15,120
I thought you'd be excited.

1179
01:08:16,360 --> 01:08:17,360
Buhle,

1180
01:08:18,120 --> 01:08:20,840
I'm grateful, really, for what you did
to make this happen.

1181
01:08:20,920 --> 01:08:22,359
However, that's enough.

1182
01:08:22,439 --> 01:08:23,680
-What are you saying, T?
-Thoko?

1183
01:08:23,760 --> 01:08:25,000
This relationship.

1184
01:08:25,080 --> 01:08:27,279
I don't know
if you've ever felt anything, Sindi,

1185
01:08:27,359 --> 01:08:28,479
or if you feel anything now,

1186
01:08:28,560 --> 01:08:30,880
or if it's always just been
business for you, but I can't.

1187
01:08:30,960 --> 01:08:34,240
-Thoko, just listen. Couldn't I just--
-I'm sick of pretending!

1188
01:08:34,760 --> 01:08:37,800
T, didn't you say
you wanted a reality show?

1189
01:08:37,880 --> 01:08:40,120
Yes, Buhle, I said I wanted
a reality show, but not this way.

1190
01:08:40,200 --> 01:08:42,640
'Cause love is supposed to be
a real thing, not a gimmick.

1191
01:08:48,840 --> 01:08:49,840
Fuck.

1192
01:08:49,920 --> 01:08:51,000
Fuck.

1193
01:08:55,160 --> 01:08:56,160
Shit.

1194
01:09:09,960 --> 01:09:10,960
Well.

1195
01:09:11,560 --> 01:09:13,960
-Back here again.
-Yeah.

1196
01:09:14,840 --> 01:09:16,359
No, seriously, you're the bomb, Buhle.

1197
01:09:17,359 --> 01:09:19,520
It's okay. What are friends for?

1198
01:09:20,800 --> 01:09:22,560
Plus, anyway, as your manager,

1199
01:09:23,479 --> 01:09:26,760
you know it wouldn't be a good look for me
if you were homeless.

1200
01:09:26,840 --> 01:09:28,439
-Well, now, we couldn't do that.
-No.

1201
01:09:29,399 --> 01:09:30,399
No, seriously though.

1202
01:09:30,479 --> 01:09:33,560
I know how hard you worked for me
for the reality show.

1203
01:09:34,200 --> 01:09:35,200
I'm so sorry.

1204
01:09:35,279 --> 01:09:38,399
You have to just follow
what's right for you, you know?

1205
01:09:39,040 --> 01:09:40,560
And I can't be mad at that.

1206
01:09:40,640 --> 01:09:43,240
And also now we've spent
a lot of money on this book, T.

1207
01:09:43,800 --> 01:09:45,840
-You have to start earning.
-I agree.

1208
01:09:45,920 --> 01:09:46,920
Yeah?

1209
01:09:47,439 --> 01:09:48,880
So, what do you think?

1210
01:09:48,960 --> 01:09:52,600
Well, Ma asked if you would be the MC
at the wedding for Sizwe.

1211
01:09:53,560 --> 01:09:55,800
Look, it's not a reality show,

1212
01:09:55,880 --> 01:09:57,160
but the media's gonna be there.

1213
01:09:57,240 --> 01:09:59,920
PR anyway. Can leverage it. We got it.

1214
01:10:00,000 --> 01:10:01,000
No, I hear you.

1215
01:10:01,080 --> 01:10:03,440
But knowing your mother,
she'll make me wear a tiara.

1216
01:10:03,520 --> 01:10:04,720
Of course.

1217
01:10:04,800 --> 01:10:05,800
One hundred percent.

1218
01:10:06,680 --> 01:10:08,120
-Hey, T, listen.
-Yeah.

1219
01:10:08,200 --> 01:10:10,000
-It'll all work out.
-No, thank you.

1220
01:10:10,080 --> 01:10:11,960
-So we'll find a way.
-Thank you.

1221
01:10:35,600 --> 01:10:37,160
What a love, what a love, yeah

1222
01:10:37,240 --> 01:10:42,480
I am in love with Thoko Duma.

1223
01:10:44,880 --> 01:10:46,960
I'm grateful to you for this moment.

1224
01:10:48,120 --> 01:10:50,080
I'm grateful to you. You're a gem.

1225
01:10:50,160 --> 01:10:52,000
What a love, what a love, yeah

1226
01:10:52,080 --> 01:10:53,280
What a love

1227
01:10:55,200 --> 01:10:58,720
Okay, so we have a little problem.

1228
01:10:58,800 --> 01:11:01,440
One of our band members is running
a little bit late.

1229
01:11:01,520 --> 01:11:03,920
However, we were able to get
a replacement in a rush.

1230
01:11:04,000 --> 01:11:05,080
He's on the way.

1231
01:11:05,160 --> 01:11:07,200
There will be many important people here.

1232
01:11:08,160 --> 01:11:10,640
-Yeah.
-So don't embarrass me.

1233
01:11:11,240 --> 01:11:12,480
That won't happen.

1234
01:11:14,880 --> 01:11:16,240
Well then, Ms. Best Man?

1235
01:11:16,320 --> 01:11:17,320
-Yeah.
-Are you good?

1236
01:11:17,400 --> 01:11:19,800
Yeah. No need to stress here.
The rings are with me.

1237
01:11:19,880 --> 01:11:21,160
-And…
-Okay.

1238
01:11:21,240 --> 01:11:23,080
…let me find him. I'll be back in two.

1239
01:11:23,160 --> 01:11:24,360
-All right.
-You're doing good.

1240
01:11:24,440 --> 01:11:26,280
You too. Yeah. Thank you so much.

1241
01:11:29,520 --> 01:11:31,080
-Hey, Lethu. Hi.
-Thoko.

1242
01:11:31,160 --> 01:11:33,560
-All right?
-Hi. I'm okay. How are you?

1243
01:11:33,640 --> 01:11:34,720
I'm happy you made it on time.

1244
01:11:35,720 --> 01:11:37,400
-Right. Here's the program.
-Okay.

1245
01:11:37,480 --> 01:11:39,440
So, we'll call you ten minutes
before you're needed.

1246
01:11:39,520 --> 01:11:41,080
Copy. No problem.

1247
01:11:41,160 --> 01:11:42,560
I'm going to sit in the car, okay?

1248
01:11:42,640 --> 01:11:44,040
-Okay.
-Practicing all these names.

1249
01:11:44,120 --> 01:11:45,960
You'll be fine, relax.

1250
01:11:46,040 --> 01:11:47,960
-I'm sure of it.
-Okay.

1251
01:11:48,040 --> 01:11:49,160
Okay.

1252
01:12:03,120 --> 01:12:04,520
Nana?

1253
01:12:09,800 --> 01:12:10,880
Hi.

1254
01:12:11,560 --> 01:12:12,960
Hello, Thoko.

1255
01:12:14,480 --> 01:12:16,600
I didn't think you knew the Jamas.

1256
01:12:18,080 --> 01:12:20,160
No, I don't know them.

1257
01:12:20,240 --> 01:12:21,960
I only brought Zweli.

1258
01:12:26,440 --> 01:12:27,840
It is good to see you.

1259
01:12:30,840 --> 01:12:32,280
I have to go. Excuse me.

1260
01:12:32,360 --> 01:12:34,280
I can't stop thinking, Nana.

1261
01:12:35,920 --> 01:12:37,800
I can't stop thinking about you.

1262
01:12:40,680 --> 01:12:43,480
I'm sorry for the way I treated you.

1263
01:12:43,560 --> 01:12:46,480
The truth is, me and Sindi
were never really a thing

1264
01:12:46,560 --> 01:12:48,560
when you and I were… working.

1265
01:12:52,240 --> 01:12:54,880
-That's none of my business though.
-It was for publicity.

1266
01:12:54,960 --> 01:12:57,920
It worked for the brands
for the both of us, but now…

1267
01:12:58,000 --> 01:12:59,400
even that's not going on now.

1268
01:12:59,480 --> 01:13:01,400
It's been over for weeks, completely.

1269
01:13:03,000 --> 01:13:04,760
Why are you telling me this?

1270
01:13:08,960 --> 01:13:09,960
Well?

1271
01:13:12,640 --> 01:13:15,880
I think you and I might…
We should give us a chance.

1272
01:13:17,800 --> 01:13:18,880
You and me?

1273
01:13:19,720 --> 01:13:21,120
No. Thoko, no.

1274
01:13:21,200 --> 01:13:22,400
Uh-uh. No.

1275
01:13:23,120 --> 01:13:27,040
So, since you're now done using Sindi,
now you want to play with me?

1276
01:13:27,120 --> 01:13:29,400
-Nah. Nana, no.
-No.

1277
01:13:29,480 --> 01:13:31,400
Thoko, you made your choice now.

1278
01:13:31,480 --> 01:13:33,640
Back when I was the awkward--

1279
01:13:33,720 --> 01:13:36,440
That is… That's not fair. It's not fair.

1280
01:13:37,480 --> 01:13:41,040
But now that you know that I'm…
you see, I'm Liana Ndlovu,

1281
01:13:41,120 --> 01:13:45,080
an award-winning romance novelist,
you want to give us a try?

1282
01:13:47,200 --> 01:13:49,120
This has nothing to do with Liana.

1283
01:13:51,280 --> 01:13:52,760
I'm not playing games.

1284
01:13:54,880 --> 01:13:56,160
That's hard to believe.

1285
01:14:00,440 --> 01:14:04,320
Nana, was it Liana I ran into
at Black Books, in the bathroom?

1286
01:14:05,640 --> 01:14:09,440
Was it Liana who I spent
all those hours talking peacefully to?

1287
01:14:09,960 --> 01:14:12,320
Was it Liana who I sang karaoke with?

1288
01:14:12,400 --> 01:14:18,040
It most certainly was not Liana who showed
me a different side to love and closeness.

1289
01:14:23,720 --> 01:14:26,400
Thoko, you had the chance
to tell me all of this before, you know.

1290
01:14:26,480 --> 01:14:28,760
I know. I was stupid.

1291
01:14:32,040 --> 01:14:34,400
Nana, I'm used to getting what I want.

1292
01:14:34,480 --> 01:14:36,240
I'm also used to people wanting me too.

1293
01:14:36,880 --> 01:14:39,640
I couldn't bring myself to take the risk
to tell you how I felt for you,

1294
01:14:39,720 --> 01:14:41,120
only for me to lose again.

1295
01:14:45,280 --> 01:14:47,480
But do you know
what's even worse, you know?

1296
01:14:50,440 --> 01:14:55,600
It's lying in bed, hour for hour,
pondering "what if" at home alone.

1297
01:14:57,520 --> 01:15:00,240
Nana, I don't want to be
what people think I should be anymore.

1298
01:15:00,920 --> 01:15:04,000
I don't want to be a pageant queen.
I don't want to be a reality star.

1299
01:15:04,080 --> 01:15:05,640
Honestly, that all means nothing

1300
01:15:05,720 --> 01:15:07,720
if I'm going to miss my chance
at love with you.

1301
01:15:07,800 --> 01:15:09,000
I can't bear it.

1302
01:15:30,160 --> 01:15:33,000
'Kay, why didn't you just say that
from the very start?

1303
01:15:35,280 --> 01:15:38,800
Nana, could you please do me the honor

1304
01:15:38,880 --> 01:15:40,840
of being my partner today?

1305
01:15:42,240 --> 01:15:44,680
I think you want my soul.
What else do you want from me?

1306
01:15:44,760 --> 01:15:47,800
I mean, first you wanted me
to be your coauthor.

1307
01:15:47,880 --> 01:15:49,640
Meanwhile, you have feelings for me.

1308
01:15:49,720 --> 01:15:52,320
Now you want me to join you
at a wedding of people I don't know.

1309
01:15:57,080 --> 01:15:58,600
Don't leave me, okay?

1310
01:15:59,880 --> 01:16:00,880
Promise.

1311
01:16:03,720 --> 01:16:04,840
Come.

1312
01:16:06,960 --> 01:16:09,960
-My keys. My--
-Goodness, Nana.

1313
01:16:10,680 --> 01:16:12,000
We're hanging with the Jamas.

1314
01:16:12,080 --> 01:16:14,400
No one is going to steal your car. Okay?

1315
01:16:15,120 --> 01:16:16,960
-Are you sure?
-Yes. Give me your hand.

1316
01:16:19,920 --> 01:16:21,480
You know you are a handful, hey?

1317
01:16:22,880 --> 01:16:25,800
-But you missed me, right?
-Well…

1318
01:16:31,200 --> 01:16:34,000
My dear friends, dating stings.

1319
01:16:34,080 --> 01:16:35,960
Just like the truth.

1320
01:16:36,040 --> 01:16:38,120
Whether you love it or you hate it,

1321
01:16:38,200 --> 01:16:40,400
we cannot live without it.

1322
01:16:40,480 --> 01:16:44,040
Guys, in fact, dating makes
the world go around.

1323
01:16:44,120 --> 01:16:46,040
It's just that simple.

1324
01:16:46,120 --> 01:16:48,000
Whether it gives or it takes,

1325
01:16:48,080 --> 01:16:51,840
we all want to live to date another day.
