Stop, stop!

Mama'wam.

How's the most beautiful girl
in the world?

Hey, Richie Rich.

I'll take all of them today.

-Tulips, proteas, roses, everything.
-Everything?

Sir, you look dashing
in your floral shirt.

-Oh, thank you very much.
-Smile for a while.

You wanna dance? Let's go.

-You can have another one, yeah.
-Amazing, thank you.

Owethu Sityebi? The billionaire?

And this is his billion-heir.
His only child.

Yes, girl!

Owethu!

Wow, friend, you have arrived!

-Owethu!
-Shit!

-Um… Eh…
-Friend…

Whoa. Can you please…

Can you just step in here for a moment?

-What? No. What are you doing?
-Please?

-I'm not walking in there.
-I'll take you out for breakfast.

I'll take you out for breakfast. Shh.

Ovee!

-Man, I thought I heard voices.
-No.

Okay.

Your father is looking for you.
Don't keep him waiting.

Okay. Thanks, ma'am.

Listen here,

nobody buys the cow
when they can get the milk for free.

Let me tell you.

Nathi. Nathi!

No. Hey, delivering take-aways
is not part of my job description.

Hey, look. I'll invite
your crush to the wine fest later.

-No.
-Yeah.

-No. Hey, I said no.
-It's going to be a vibe!

-Bro! Dawg, no! No, dawg! Dawg!
-Dude, it'll be a vibe!

Oh, my days!

What took…

I'll take you home.

This is your life.

Blue skies from here to infinity.

You know, Ovee, I've…

Look, I've given up everything
to build you this empire.

The whole of the Sityebi empire is yours.

But first, you need to grow up.

I know, Pops.

It's just… I don't know…

You know, like, what's…

Blue for you is…

I don't know,
it's like partly cloudy for me, you know?

-Um…
-Okay, what do you mean?

I'm almost the same age
Mom was when she passed away.

Okay.

So, I was kinda thinking.

What if we take a trip?

What if we go away? What if we spend time?

Yeah, yeah. I just…

Yeah, you're absolutely right.

That's what we need.
We need to spend some time together.

You need to be at Jozi headquarters.

You know, breathing,
living the organisation 24/7.

There's a position.
A mid-level executive position.

Don't worry.

I'll mentor you
every step of the way.

I'll be right by your side.

Dad,

I don't think that's for me, Dad. Um…

Owethu.
I don't understand what's for you.

First of all, you are lost.

Secondly, you refuse
to speak your mother tongue.

Thirdly, you reject your own culture.
Your own roots.

What's really for you?

Hey? Three private schools.

An Ivy League University

that expelled you
because you can't behave yourself!

I did say it,
but I don't want to go to Harvard, Dad.

There's a world
out there that's full of hungry people

waiting to eat you alive at any moment!

And I know, Owethu Sityebi,

you don't stand a chance.

Listen, boy.

If you want my protection,

my money, my shelter,

you do as I say.

I'm done.

Ah, jeez.

Is he going to call me?

Um…

Yeah, probably not.

And what action did you take

immediately after
administering the AED shot?

I began CPR for two minutes,

five cycles
of 30 compressions to two breaths.

Mmm.

That's very good, Amahle.

You saved a life today.

There's robotic surgery
scheduled for this evening.

DaVinci 4th Gen.

Maybe tonight you'd like to come…

-Hell, yes.
-…and observe?

I'm sorry. I mean, yes.
I'd love to.

Alright.

-Did she just…
-Uh-uh. Uh-uh.

-Uh-uh.
-Uh-uh.

Friend, it's DaVinci 4th Gen.

DaVinci 4th Gen is forever.
My bachelorette is for one night.

Listen, you know
my mom lost her job, right?

I need a good Comserve post.

It's just going to
make my life easier here.

Okay, well you've obviously got
some tough competition,

but it's in the bag, girl.

You're obviously the best candidate.

Plus, Dr Handsome is all about you.

Guys, that man is not my type.

Rich and pretty is everyone's type.

Double the privilege
means double the entitlement.

Okay. Well, if he's opening doors
for you, you might as well walk in.

I don't need anyone to open doors for me.

I've got this far on my own.

I don't need some bruh
from Bishopscourt to save me.

-No offense, Mems.
-Oh, no. None taken.

I'm so ready to be rescued
by my rich husband.

But I don't want a horse, guys.
I want a Porche.

-Mmm? Mm-hm?
-That. Do you know what I mean?

Please.

Okay, fine. I'll go.

-I'll go. I'll go.
-Yay!

We going to be tripleting!

I'll need to, you know,
default on my student loan,

but so long as we're matching.

-Yes, exactly. Yes.
-Yes, girl. Priorities.

Bro, my dad is forcing me
to join the company. Imagine.

Hey, bro,

I'm just grateful to be part of your
dad's new winery's internship program.

You're walking straight
into the executive suites

at the Johannesburg headquarters
and you're, what, sad?

To be his own man,
he needs to follow his own dreams.

Wow, Ma. He can follow his own dreams,

but I must do a marketing internship?

Goodness!
You'll be the first in the family

to wear a suit and not a uniform.

-To be fair, Ma, he is a great chef.
-Thank you.

I promised his granny. So don't test me.

I don't want to hear anything from you.

Hey, bro.
The hypocrisy is crazy, bro.

I mean,
you can do whatever you want to do,

but I have to be the dreams
of my ancestors.

Yeah, it's tough for us, boy.

For us?

Boy, you have no idea.

Hey, look.

Your crush accepted the invitation.

She's coming to the festival tonight.

Where? No, bro. What?

What do you mean?

Check it out.

No, dawg.

What?

-No, it's too soon, bro.
-It's too soon for what?

No, bruh. You've been crushing overtime.

-I'm not ready.
-You're not read…

Bro, hey, calm down.

I'll be your wingman, boy.
I'll give you tips.

Bro, I don't need tips.

You do need tips.

Do you remember what happ… Hmm.

Do you remember
what happened with Tall Mommy?

No, dawg. Please.

-Do you remember what happened?
-Hey, hey.

-Must I remind you? Must I remind you?
-Bro, don't start. Bro.

Dawg, I'm gonna tip you over.

-Bro, stop it!
-Okay, I'm coming! Hey!

Hi.

I got this invitation

from a guy who claims
to be the son of Owethu Sityebi.

Boy, boy.

KG's here.

KG!

You look even more gorgeous
than in your pictures.

Do you know how rare that is these days?

You're real too.

Yeah, why wouldn't I be?

I didn't see anything about you online.

I almost didn't come.

Oh, but you know my boy Nathi, right?

Yeah.

Hi.

-Ah!
-We grew up together.

And he thought it would be wonderful
if you came tonight.

I'll come
for you anytime, Mr Sityebi.

Come on!

Please. Hey, bro. Look.

Look, that wasn't my fault. Come on.

"You look more gorgeous
than your pictures"?

Yeah, man. I had to say something.
You weren't saying anything.

Yeah because everything's so easy for you.

Look, if you just took my lead sometimes,

then maybe
you could get a girl to like you, bro.

What? You think
she likes you because you're likeable?

Yeah. I mean, look at me. I'm…

Bro, she doesn't look at you, bro.

She doesn't see you, bro. She sees this.

She likes your name
and your money. That's it, bro. Not you.

-Take it easy.
-It's the truth.

All these people,
all these girls, they wouldn't give

two shits about you
if your name was Nathi Maseko

instead of Owethu Sityebi.

You know what? Let's test it.

Yeah? Let's swap.

What?

I'll be you for the rest of the night

and I'll prove to you
that I can get these ladies

to love me for who I am.

I bet you.

Let the treading begin,
in three, two, one!

The team that makes the most wine

in the next ten minutes,
gets free drinks all night long!

Oh, yeah!

Alright.

Uh…

-Yeah, her.
-The angel?

-Uh-huh.
-She's mine in five.

-In five?
-Five.

Uh, you know
there's an empty barrel over there

if you're looking for a partner.

I'm asking for a friend.

I mean, I never show my feet in public.

They're freakishly big.

Well done, everyone.

Great stomping.

Please welcome onto the stage
the new owner of Sityebi Winery,

Mr Billy Business himself,
Mr Owethu Sityebi!

Thank you.
Thank you, everyone.

Well, I'd like to introduce my son
to help with the judging.

Where's he?

Owethu?

Wow.

-Ovee?
-What?

Rich kids.

Anyways, um…

Let's get on with the judging.

I mean, he's not so bad, the son.

Do you know him?

My mother is their housekeeper
so we grew up together.

I'm his driver now.

Expensive shoes for a driver.

Yeah, I score his hand-me-downs.

So he also has freakishly large feet?

No, but um… good leather stretches.

What do you do?

It's my final year interning
at the Winelands hospital.

Which is where I should be instead of
watching the entitled waste food for fun.

So why are you here?

It's my ride-or-die's bachelorette's.

She's getting married
at the Windveld Wine Estate this weekend.

Windveld? That pretty entitled.

Yeah, it is.
But I love her anyway.

Oh, you forgot your…

-What are you…
-Sorry, I'm just…

What are you doing?

Your tag… Just pulling your tag out.

I need that.
I'm going to return this dress.

I'm sorry. I…

Thank you. Thank you so much.

And the winner is…

-Don't go that way!
-Barrel number three, the bride-to-be!

Don't go that way.

- Ten, nine, eight,
-You'll mess up your dress.

Seven, six,

-five, four, three, two, one.
-Sorry, coming through.

Let's get you out of here.

Yeah, okay.

-Are you good? Let's get this off you.
-Yeah.

Oh! I'm sorry.

No, thank you. Thank you so much.

Of course. Yeah.

-Uhm! Thanks.
-Oh, you've actually got a…

Ooh! What are you doing?

Oh, I like, kinda felt something.
I thought maybe…

Uh, I mean,
I'm coming to live in the Winelands

-to take you out.
-So you're stalking me?

No, no, no. I'm…

I'm joining the internship program
at the Sityebi Wineries.

Oh.

-Good for you.
-Yeah, I promised my mom.

I promised my grandmother that

I'd be the first in our family
to wear a suit and not a uniform. So…

It's kind of… like, I'll start
from the bottom and now I'm here.

But not here. I mean, like there.

Mm-hmm.

There, I mean…

Good luck.

Truly.

So can I see you again?

Uh!

Is that a yes or a no?

Five minutes you said, huh?

Right? Welcome to my life, my boy.

Hey, but she's nice though.

Where?

It's something.

Jeez, he's just like you.

-Morning.
-Morning, Pops.

How did you sleep?

Good.

Uh,

Ovee, we need to talk.

Take the job at the Jo'burg headquarters,

and I'll give you
the car you always wanted.

-The Lambo?
-Yeah.

Burnt orange.

Would you like that?

Yeah,
I mean, of course. I mean…

But I have an idea.

Okay.

What if I join the internship program
at the new wine farm?

No? Yes?

-I mean, what, you think I can't?
-You're joking.

No, I mean, it's not
about whether you can't, but listen,

I've sweated and fought
my way up the ladder.

You don't have to do that too.

Yeah but Dad,
what if I want to do it on my own?

No.

I gave you
everything I never had in my life.

But it's not your time.

But yeah.

Actually, what I want to
tell you is that you have no grit.

You have no character.

When you start things
you never follow through with them.

You need my help, boy.

-I don't need your help.
-No, you need my help.

-You need my help.
-No, I don't need… I don't…

-I'm telling you.
-I don't need your help, Dad.

-You need my help!
-You know what? It's fine.

Take the money.
Take the cards. Take everything.

I don't want an allowance.

I don't want anything from you.
I don't want your help anymore. Thank you.

Listen.

Don't you want the Lambo?

-Okay, fine. Maybe I want the Lambo.
-But?

But when I come first in the internship,

then I'll take the car. Not before then.

Owethu! Owethu!

No car, no allowance.

Let's see if you'll last.

So now what?
You're going to take away the internship?

Yeah, if I win. Yeah.

Bro, of course you're going to win.

-You're the boss's son.
-Oh, not this again.

-Bro, it's the truth.
-Pass.

Like, you think
you're the shit, but actually,

you wouldn't last one day in my shoes.

Wow, that hurts.
You know I have character, bro.

You know I've got qualities.
I'm just like you.

Hey, man.
Whatever you say. You're the boss.

You know what? We can swap shoes.

Right now.

We go to the farm,
but you go as Ovee, I go as Nathi.

Yeah, straight competition.

-Bro, you straight trippin'.
-How am I tripping?

-Bro, everybody is gonna know.
-How? How?

Look, Dad just bought the wine farm.

You know how paranoid
he is about security.

I've never had any pictures
of me posted online.

There's, like, one picture of me
when I was like ten years old.

I have no social media.

No one knows what I look like.

Hey, bro. Wait.

Is this about that girl?

Are you in or not?

Bro, I can't with you, bro.

Everything to you is a game.

Bro, this is not a game.

It's not a game.

You're just scared you're gonna lose

as yourself and then
you're gonna have no excuse.

Whatever, bro.

-Okay, fine.
-Actually, wait.

Since you're so loud,
I'll bet you the Lambo.

You beat me as me, it's yours.

-I'm actually being serious.
-Burnt orange. It's yours.

-Alright then!
-Hey! Hey!

What are you trying to…

What are you doing?
You're gonna drown me, bro.

That's the plan!
So I can be you for real, bro.

Really?

That's enough.

What's up, boy?

-Look at this jacket, boy.
-Look at this jacket, boy.

My name is Ovee!

No! My name is Ovee!

My name is Nathi.

Yo, what's happening, bro?

-You good?
-What's up, man?

-No, no. Don't do that. I got it.
-Okay.

You're being an ass
for starting from the bottom, hey.

I mean, you're Ovee Sityebi, yeah,

and you're doing an internship
on your daddy's wine farm.

It doesn't make sense.
Could you stay anywhere else?

This is your life, boy. It's so you.

Mr Sityebi.

Greetings.

Good day to you.

My name is Ovee.

Ovee! What a pleasure.

I am Tmolus E. Gumbi.

Ground Staff in Chief.

Sorry. Uh, Tom who?

Tmolus.

The mountain god of Lydia.

My father was a student
of ancient Greek mythology.

Bab' Tom is just fine.

Oh, yeah. My name is Nathi
and I'm joining him on the internship.

Your shopping has arrived, Mr Ovee.

And if it's not packed up to
your absolute satisfaction,

I will repack it at once.

I got you some stuff so you look the part.

Um, thank you.

And as you can see
from up here, gentlemen,

everything is perfect.

Tell your father, ten stars.

Your room is this way, sir.

And your suite is this way, Mr Ovee.

-Oh, thank you.
-Excuse me for one second.

Yo, Nathi.

Nathi.

Yo!

-Yo.
-Yo!

-And then?
-Yeah, I'm going to a wedding.

Can you borrow me R100?

R100 for?

I'll pay you back.

Alright.

Jeez, dawg.

Alright. Thanks.

-I'll see you, bro.
-Alright.

Schucks.

Just looking for the pap.

I forgot my invitation at home,
but I am on the guest list. Thank you.

Bro, do you want a designer suit?

Don't tell me you're reading
a medical article at my wedding.

Girl, I'm so sorry.

Girl, you need to check yourself
before you become a nun.

Oh, maybe he can help.

Girl, I told you. He's not my type.

Girl, get him your type.

-Memo, come here. Memo. Memo!
-Hey.

Hey.

Do you want to dance?

I'm sorry. I don't really dance.

Oh, you don't really dance
or you don't know how to dance?

It's okay. I got you. No judgement.

All you gotta do is bop your head,
do a little shoulder shuffle.

It's all it takes. It's simple.
The aim is not to sweat.

-Okay.
-Yeah.

-Okay, just sort of…
-Yeah. There you go. You see that?

-Okay.
-We don't need all this.

We don't need that.

-It's just here. Just keep it here.
-Okay.

I think I could do that. I could do that.

-Yeah, there you go. There you go.
-Come on, girls!

Hey, bestie.

-Let me get that for you real quick.
-Oh, uh…

Dance, dance.

Hi.

-You?
-For you.

-Have some medicine.
-Thank you.

Hey.

Alright.

Double Hennessy,
two blocks of ice and a spirit of…

-Hey!
-Whoops!

Big boy can't handle his liquor.

It's not a good look.

Hey! Get a mop, clean this up,
and get me another drink.

Do you want something soft
like Oros? Fanta maybe?

Or maybe a cream soda with a float.

Get back here, clean this up,
and get me a drink!

-Hey! I'm talking to you.
-Dr Mokoena, please!

Waiter boy, come back here!
Do your job and get me a drink!

Hey! I am talking to you.

-Hey!
-Listen to me.

There you go.

Ooh, spicy!

Come in. Come in, brother.

Come in, brother. Come in.

Join the dancing.

Join the dancing.

-Guy.
-Mm-hmm.

Second strike and still nothing?

Oh, no. Tonight I hooked her, boy.

-Oh, yeah?
-Yeah.

-Then where is she?
-She's at home.

But she's thinking about me
instead of the other guy, you know.

There's another guy?

Yeah, but he's a kid though.

A small boy.

Bro, I can't lie.
Right now, you're looking like the kid.

Says the virgin.

-Does she even know your name?
-No.

She knows something way
better than my name.

-Oh, yeah?
-She knows how I make her feel.

Oh, bro. Ew, man. What?

Excuse me.

Mr Sityebi's son is
in the course. Owethu Jnr.

Um… Owethu Jnr…

Ovee Sityebi?

Apparently, he's a real playboy.

Hmm.

I don't see the appeal.

Mr Sityebi wants to make sure

that the boy doesn't embarrass him.

So just, you know,
make sure you help him get along.

What? No. No special treatment
under my watch, Desmond.

Sorry, can I just say?

We're all very impressed
you're doing this.

Any questions?

Excellent. Yes, people.

I'm pretty sure it's profit.

Mr Enthusiastic

over here, do you mind making
me a coffee, please?

Okay. Okay.

Yeah, that would mean…

Alright, Mr Enthusiastic.
Where's my coffee?

Uh, coming right up.

You know what? Just…

Oh, jeez.

You know what? Just leave it.

-I'll do it myself.
-Um, I could do it.

-Alright, I'll be in the lounge.
-Yeah, I told you, bro.

You good?

Yeah, um, where's the water?

No, don't worry about it, bro.
I got you, okay?

-I'll take over.
-Alright, thanks.

Cool.

I've got your coffee, ma'am.

Thanks.

Hmm.

-That's good.
-Ah, cool.

I know who you are.

Don't expect me to treat you differently
from the other interns.

Oh, no. Most definitely not. I won't.

Ah! Very commendable that you're willing
to start from the bottom. It's, uh…

a very attractive quality.

But no special treatment.

Oh, no. No. Definitely not.

Thank you.

You're flirting with her.

-No.
-Yes, you are.

I'm not.

Bro, she just liked my coffee.

-"She just liked my coffee."
-Yes!

Shut up.

Anyway, how does it feel being Nathi?

It's giving me a headache, you know.

I need to see a doctor.

I need to see my doctor.

-What?
-I actually have one.

Unlike you. I'll out, bro. I'll see you.

What the hell?

Joe Louw?

You can take my seat.

You can take my seat, bro.
You can take my seat.

Sure.

Nathi Maseko?

Hi.

Hi.

Hey.

So that's your name?

Yeah. What's yours?

Dr Philiso.

Dr Philiso. Nice to meet you, Dr Philiso.

So, what ails you, Nathi?

So right now my heart is racing, yeah?

Okay.

Just one second.

Just breathe in for me.

Yeah, it is a little fast.

And I'm sweaty.

A lot, actually.

Um…

And I started at that internship
that I told you about.

And I just can't focus.

Especially with you
standing so close to me.

Look, I'm definitely sick. I'm lovesick.

Uh-huh.

What? So, you're like a doctor now?

No, I'm just,
a responsible citizen, you know.

I'm warning the people
I've been around in case it's catchy.

Very good.

-Love is a dangerous condition.
-Yeah, it is, right?

Yeah. You should
get it treated immediately.

Yeah, with dinner, right?

No, I don't think you should ever be fed.

I mean, you look a little
flustered yourself.

What if I monitor
your condition as I walk you home?

I am immune to love and yeah…

-What about friendship?
-I mean it. I just…

Yes, but why? Look, love is fickle.

-Mmm.
-It's a horrible thing.

-Mm-hmm.
-It's a horrible thing.

But, you know,
friendship though…

Friendship, Dr Philiso, is forever.

Friends?

Amahle.

It's nice to meet you, Amahle.

It's very nice to meet you, Nathi.

-Very nice?
-Yeah.

Oh, I like that.

Okay.

Cool.

Mmm. You ready?

Yeah.

Have you lived here your whole life?

Yeah.

You?

I've lived in quite
a lot of different places.

I'm a bit of a nomad.

Okay.

My dream is to stay here

and work in the community,

but there isn't even a clinic, so yeah.

What about you?
What happens after you win the job?

I mean, the boss's son
is probably going to win it.

Not if you show them
how much better you are than him.

I mean, the truth is

I'm actually a little bit crap
and he's actually pretty amazing.

Hi, ma'am. How are you?

-Hi. I'm okay. How are you?
-We're good.

What if I coach you?

Yeah. Like, I know
what it's like to come from nothing.

I've been there.

You want to coach me?

Starting from tomorrow morning.

When you say morning,
what time are we talking?

Don't think about it too much, you know?

-Persevere.
-Uh… You're scaring me now.

-Hmm. Do you like it?
-Yeah.

-Yeah, it's great.
-You're lying.

No, it's…

-I literally don't believe you.
-What?

Is it the high-pitched voice?
Is it like, "Yeah, I love it, hey.

It's amazing. It's amazing"?

Who even speaks like that?

Like…

Are you okay?

Yeah. Uh, yeah.
It's just a little bit of déjà vu.

-Oh.
-Yeah, yeah.

God,
that's so crazy when that happens.

Uh-huh?

Okay, 5 am club.

Main idea, the first hour of your day
affects the quality of your whole life!

So it's 20 minutes meditation,
20 minutes exercise, 20 minutes learning.

It's all about small improvements.

Try to improve
one percent every day. That's all!

Come on!

-What's going on? Come on, let's go!
-Just wait. I'm going to join you.

-You can go. It's cool.
-No! Do you think

Ovee is resting right now? Come on.

-Let's go. Come on, get up!
-Please, I'm done. Come on!

Okay.

Yeah.

-My man, how you doing?
-I'm good, bro. How you?

-Good, good.
-Lovely.

Uh, can you please help me here?

-Like that?
-Like that.

-Like that.
-Just like that. There we go.

Will it come out? Come out.

-Alright, go back in. Awesome.
-Back in.

For the last five years or so.

Um, hi. Morning.
I made you a cup of coffee.

A good one, finally.

Yes, uh.

I could send you the proposal
and we could set up a meeting.

Mm-hmm.

Yeah.

-Wait!
-You don't have to shunt me.

I'm going to do it!

Give it a couple of swirls.
There you go. Swirl away.

And glasses up once again.

Come on!

No.

What's going on?

This is for you.

Sweet.

Bro, have you even looked
at this homework they gave us?

I don't need to.

I told you that your name gets you ahead.

Oh, so you admit it?

No, you're admitting it?

I mean, at least I try.
You know. You just…

You just stand there
giving puppy dog eyes to Lena.

-No, I don't.
-Bro, let… Bro, this is you.

"Oh, Lena."

-"Lena".
-Bro, stop.

-"Lena".
-Stop.

Bro, stop!

-Admit that you like her.
-I don't.

-Just say that you like her.
-I don't.

-Bro, even if I did…
-There we go! I knew it.

Even if I did, I wouldn't
stand a chance with that girl, bro.

Like, I wouldn't even know where to start.

You stand next to her, you know.

You put your chest out
and you tell her how you feel.

Come on. Chest out. Let's go. Ju…

Come on, chest out.

-Bro, stop.
-There you go, bro. Exactly!

-You see? You've got it!
-Stop. Stop, bro.

Leave me alone.

I mean, anyways.
You're me now, so just do what I do.

The Sityebi Group
now owns this wine estate

and is in the process of rebranding
for local and international market.

So, we want you to give us
some new marketing ideas.

You'll have two days
to come up with something

special and to complete the assignment.

Alright, see you tomorrow.

Uh, Desmond.

Uh, do you have any materials

on the new cultivar hybrid
that I could look over?

Nathi.
So you've heard about the new hybrid?

-Yeah.
-That's initiative and I like it.

Let me tell you about it. Come.

I see what you're doing
and it's not going to work.

I see you look at me with those
seducers eyes or 'come to bed'

or 'I want you right now'.

I have heard about you,

Ovee Sityebi.

Your womanising ways
aren't going to work on me.

Professional.

No special treatment.

Mama'wam?

How's the most beautiful girl
in the world?

What?

Yeah, sure. I'll make my way now.

-Uh, Rolo?
-Yes, sir.

Yes, um, look.
So I don't have any cash right now,

-but this…
-No.

But this is a 2015 Serenity Pinotage
which is retailing just shy of five grand.

If you drive me, it's yours.

The booze system
doesn't apply anymore. No!

Please, sir. Look, look!

I'm Ovee Sityebi.

Owethu Sityebi's only son.

-The billionaire?
-Yes, the billionaire.

Look, I'm having a
bit of a cash flow issue

but this is surety until then.

-What happened?
-She just collapsed.

Has anyone seen Dr Philiso?

Hey, this is not a spaza shop.

-You can't just walk in here.
-But she needs your help.

-And I needed a Hennessy.
-Please, this is an emergency.

Just like every other patient out there.

Please can you
just get hold of Dr Philiso?

Can you sit down,
fill in a form, and wait your turn?

-It's okay. I admitted her when he called.
-Thank you.

You're welcome.

Disregarding protocol, are we?

That's not a good look for an intern
seeking a ComServe recommendation.

Is there a problem?

No, Doctor.

-Is this the patient?
-Yes, Doc.

Hmm?

You, my friend, are going to
mess things up for her big time.

She's a doctor. You are… a waiter.

Carrying women's handbags.

Okay.

Unfortunately, visiting hours are over.

I just don't want to leave her.

She'll be fine.

She's under Dr William's care now.

Why can't you be her doctor?

Because I'm not a Vascular Neurologist.

-So it was a stroke?
-Mm-mm.

It was a TIA.

It has the same symptoms but it usually
lasts a few hours and then they're gone.

She'll be fine, Nathi.

And Dr Williams is
only keeping her under observation

because she sees
how much you care about her

and how much that makes me care about you.

-Yeah?
-I… yeah.

I hate to admit it
but I think my prognosis was wrong.

Love should be fed.

-Yeah?
-Yeah. Right now.

-Oh, right now?
-Immediately.

-Immediately?
-Yeah.

-You're just trying to get me out of here.
-I see what you're doing.

No.

Let's go get something to eat.

Okay.

You know, for someone
who's so sweet, you can be sour.

Look,
I do know how to bear a grudge.

Okay?

So what? Is your beef just for
the entitled people or all rich people?

Is there a difference? Uh!

So you really are prejudiced?

Okay, look. My mom was a
domestic. You know what that's like.

She worked for this family
for 20 years, six days a week.

One day, she fell ill and they fired her.

Just like that. Goodbye.

That's harsh.

But I mean, that is
just one rich family, you know, so…

Well then, there's also my dad.

-What? Is he rich?
-Oh, yeah. Big shot lawyer.

He promised my mom he'd marry her
when she fell pregnant,

and then he tells her
he's already married.

He's never seen me.
He's never given her a cent.

Yeah, that's…

Like, no. We don't even need him.

It's okay,
but you can miss me with the rich.

They just play with people because
they think that they'll always be okay.

No character.

No character.

I bet our moms will get on.

Because yours is a housekeeper
for the rich boy, right?

She was.

I was like seven years old.

Shit, I'm so sorry.

No.

-No, I've just killed this day.
-No. Don't worry.

No, it's okay.

It's okay. I mean, it's not like I,

like, remember everything
about her, you know. Like,

I just remember
what it felt like to be around her.

What did it feel like?

It felt like this.

Like I can just be myself.

Mmm.

It's a great day.

Yeah.

I don't want it to end.

Neither do I.

Yo, bro?

Uncle Tom?

Mr T!

Tmolus E. Gumbi!

What?!

What?!

Where is it?

Where's what?

The rat.

Shh! Don't tell your father.

I'll find it.

Thanks, Rolo.

Oh, the family's been
really good to my family, so…

My uncle is the estate manager here now.

-Mmm.
-Yeah.

Let's go.

We can go around the back.

Are you sure your uncle won't mind?

No.

He's away, actually.

Oh.

So, uh, Mr T.

This is where you are going
to be sleeping for tonight.

Thanks.

Oh.

Oh, jeez! I'm sorry,
I should've…

Uh-huh.

Uh, jeez.

Do you wear these?

We cannot stay here. No.

I just wanted to say,

um,

we don't…

We don't have to do anything tonight.

I mean,

yeah, we could just stare
at the stars, hmm.

I'm having the time of my life, actually.

-
-

Oh, my gosh.

Just pretend that was the smoothest thing

-Yeah!
-you've ever seen.

We've got company.

Yeah.

Lucky bastard.

Okay, I've got to go.

-Hmm?
-I've got to go.

-Really?
-Mm-hmm.

-Mmm.
-Okay, fine.

-Uh, Mr Ovee. A word.
-Ovee?

It's my second name.

I'm going by Nathi Ovee
cos it's new name, new beginnings vibes.

Okay.

-Okay, I'll see you.
-Thank you.

She's going to the hospital.

Okay. My man, all this driving
is making me very thirsty.

But you saw
what that Pinot was worth online.

Yeah, but I drank that.

It goes down well
with a masala steak gatsby.

Hold on.

Oh, yeah?

Where are you going?

-So, Rolo.
-Hmm?

-Tell me more about that name.
-Oh.

I'm my mommy's last chocolate.

Cute!

Okay, look.

So you're going to try this
with maize and meat.

Okay.

This one with runaways.

And then, yeah, with anything.

Well, you don't look
like your Tinder profile either.

Sorry.

Alright, everybody. Wow me.

Yes?

Um,

I was thinking about a fountain.

So we put them
in hotel lobbies and restaurants,

and we have them all flowing
with Sityebi Premium label wines.

Uh…

We're all one hundred percent
black-owned wine farm in Africa.

So we should be making
our culture part of global wine culture.

-How do we do that?
-Through food.

So, we'll have food trucks
across Cape Town

pairing delicious African cuisine
such as amagwinya,

such as pap en vleis,

Gatsby's, Salomes, and Runaways…

With Sityebi's new premium label wines.

I don't know. I, I prefer the fountain.

The fountain?

The same wine going
round and round in circles?

I don't know. It's just not classy, sorry.

Classier than a chicken-feet pairing.

It is unexpected,
I know, but it has a certain…

Cheeky panache.

I think the fountain
has a certain…

Cheeky panache.

Mrs Vinand, are you okay?

I'm just trying to work out
if this is fish or chicken.

Oh, yeah?

-Today is chicken, mama, it's chicken.
-Hey! You fooled me.

Hey, yoh!

-Oh, wow.
-Mmm.

Got an admirer?

Uh, no.

It's Richie Rich.

He was here early
this morning before class.

It's a weird feeling, man,
him giving them to me.

Why?

Because he's always buying them
from me for other people.

Oh, like, like other girls?

Random people.
He does it to cheer them up.

That's nice.

-Mmm.
-That's nice.

Also…

He's crazy about you too.

-Is he?
-Mmm.

Yoh, mama. I…

I really like him, but I'm just,

-I'm a bit scared.
-No, man. He's a sweetheart.

Okay. Why do you call him Richie Rich?

No.

No.

It's our secret.

Okay, you've got favourites.
Right, mama? You got favourites.

Sometimes.

And it's not me.

Mmm, not yet.

-Okay.
-Let me try some rice.

Hi.

Delivery for Nathi.

I mean, Ovee. Sorry.

He said that he's on the other side.

-Hi.
-Hi.

Did you say Ovee?

Yes, yes. He's an intern here.

Come with me.

Okay.

Thanks.

It's just this way.

So are you one of the sides?

Excuse me?

Well, we all know about the playboy.

Women wherever he goes.

Acts nice and sweet
but he's a real killer.

Also, your idea is terrible.

The only reason they're going
with it is because they think you're me.

Oh, there he is.

Look, go that way.
I'll go this way.

Where did he go?

-Hey, Amahle!
-Yeah, me. Not one of your sides.

What?

Wow!

Your little girlfriend is looking for you.

Uh, what? She's not my girlfriend.
I don't even know who she is.

-So she's lying?
-Yes! She's lying. She's a stalker.

She follows me everywhere I go.
She tells people that we're together.

-To be honest, I'm terrified of that girl.
-Hmm.

I've heard of things like that.

Crazy people going after
rich people for their money.

-Yes! Yes, right? You're right.
-Yeah.

I just really need to get away
from her though.

Alright. I know a way out this way. Come.

Look, she's trying to sabotage me.

Why would she do that?

Dammit, because
she's trying to suck up to the boss's son.

The one I told you about.

Look, I had to grow up with the guy

and yeah, I had to try
keep my head above water

just to try and,
you know, be level with him.

But I don't even think he notices
how hard it is for other people.

-This thing…
-I don't think he's a bad guy.

This is not about him, Nathi.

I know.

I know.

And I know in the past
I may have had other girls,

but I promise you, no more.

I'm not stupid, Nathi.

I know.

So just don't play me.

Don't play me like my dad played my mom.

I'm not your past.

-Yeah?
-Yeah, I promise.

For you.

-Flowers for me?
-Mm-hmm.

Oh, thank you.

You're welcome.

No, No one's ever…

Thank you. I really appreciate it.

Sure.

Quick, in here.

You're safe now.

Thank you.

Would you have dinner with me?

That is inappropriate.
I am your instructor.

Yeah, you're right. I'm…

I'm so sorry.

I mean, there's no reason
why we can't share a meal.

Unless it was a date.
It's not a date, is it?

Oh, no. No. Definitely.

-Good.
-Definitely not.

Cause I've heard you've
seduced thousands of women

on these dates of yours.

I mean, I'm much older than you.

How old are you?
Actually, never mind. It's not a date.

Where?

Um,

I was thinking maybe I cook.

Okay.

Yo, bro.

Please don't come back home.
I've got company.

Wait, do you have a date?

Yeah. No. Maybe.

I'm just gonna cook.

Um,

my uncle has a date tonight
so I can't go home.

Well, I've got dinner with my girls.

-Do you wanna come?
-Alright. Yeah. Can I?

-Yeah?
-Hell, yeah. Of course.

-Yeah?
-Yeah, sure.

-Let's go.
-Cool, let's go.

You know,

even if you tried to romance me, it just,

it wouldn't work.

Yeah.

I only pick losers.

Yep.

Jazz musicians,
artists, writers. Always broke.

You know,
even when I tell myself, you know,

"This time, this time I'm going to
find somebody with a job." It just…

It never works.

You see,
I'm the opposite of a gold digger.

Always going for the broke brothers. Yep.

I could never be attracted to you.
You're just, you're too rich.

Um, would you like to taste this?

That is the um, the most delicious thing
that's ever passed through my lips.

You animal!

I'm helpless against
your sophisticated, seductive ways.

You're taking advantage of me.

What? Um,
that's not what I'm trying to do.

So you really are
just going to drink water?

Yeah, sober Summer.

While you're doing a wine internship
at Sityebi Wine Estate?

-Yeah.
-No.

-In wine, there is truth.
-Sorry?

In wine, truth.

Order, let's see who you really are.

Uh, this is me.

Before I went on a date with anyone,

my brother would get them drunk
so he could see who they really were.

And it worked.

I skipped all the toads
and he found me a keeper.

Congratulations.

The first guy you date
and it's the waiter from the wedding.

You could've chosen
Dr Handsome and you choose him?

He's kind.
And I like that he doesn't drink.

I don't buy it.

Me neither. He's hiding something.

Maybe he's just freaked out

because you guys are acting
like complete shallow bitches.

-Mm-mm.
-We know men, babes.

Yeah,
and my guy-dar is screaming, "Liar!"

Like, what's with
this whole two names thing?

He's starting over.

Why? What's he running from
that he needs to start over?

With a new name.

And he didn't even offer to pay
for your orange juice.

Wow! Cheap. Shocking!

I don't care that he doesn't have money.

It's not about the money, babes.
It's about him not being generous to you.

But he is though.
You guys, he ubers me everywhere.

Oh! A Uber Black. Another red flag.

Mm-hmm. And I'm good at maths,
and none of this is adding up.

Mm-mm.

-Tough crowd.
-Yeah.

Um, I've got some case studies
that I need to read so I'm gonna go.

Okay. I'll just call Rolo for you.

What's the deal with him?

There's no deal.

You say you don't have any money,
which I completely understand,

but then you have this Uber Black
that can take me anywhere at any time.

I just don't want you to take
public transport whenever you go.

I googled those expensive
bottles of wine that you got him.

Those were gifted to us
when we started the internship.

Then there's the whole two-names thing.

If you're hiding something from me
or lying to me, then just tell me.

Um…

Hi.

Yes. Um, speaking.

Oh, no.

Yeah.

Yeah, I'll be there just now.
Cool.

It's um, it's Mama'wam. She had a stroke.

Let's go.

-Yeah, um…
-Yeah.

How did you become her emergency contact?

I see her every day, selling flowers.

Come rain or shine,
she stands on that corner.

She should've retired ages ago, but

her daughter passed away.

And her grandkids are still so young, so…

I'm really sorry
I got weird there for a minute.

It's just hard for me to trust people.

It's okay.

Hey, Bab' Tom. Bab' Tom.

Hey, Tmolus!

I'll pay you.

Jeez.

Mm-mm.

Mm-mm!

Okay, Mr Grumpy.

Oh, my.

Um,
you must be Mr Sityebi.

Hmm.

-Hey, yo!
-Hey, yo!

What are you doing here?

There's a rat in the house of Sityebi.

-Really?
-And he's clever.

Maybe it's a she.

Or maybe it's a they, but I'm patient.

I wait.

And then, I pounce like Beyoncé.

Wow.

Hi. Uh, Lena, I see you've met um…

Your father was explaining
corporate espionage.

-Maybe I should get a cat.
-Can I talk to you?

-I'm just in the middle of…
-Yeah, please.

Sir, please, um, excuse me.

You father, he's so, so relaxed.
So down to earth.

-You know?
-Yeah. Uh, lemme just show you the…

Uh, no, no.

I can't be walking around half naked
when your father is here.

Anyway, he's so interesting.

I feel like there's
so much I can learn from him.

Maybe he'll give me ideas.

Hmm?

Who do you think the rat is?

I think it's Desmond.

I mean, that stupid food truck idea.
He's trying to sabotage the company.

Mmm.

You know…

Your father reminds me so much of you.

So straightforward, so simple, so honest.

And the things
that you did to me last night…

No one's ever done me like that.

Ovee.

Ooh!

Ooh, yeah.

Oh, yes, Ovee. Ooh.

Oh, Ovee.

Hurry up!

Hurry.

Guys, he's not a waiter, or a fling.

He's my date to the beach party.

Come on, friend.

Levels? Okay, you're the ish
and he's just, yoh, eish.

-Mmm.
-I agree one hundred percent.

You know,
as doctors have to think very carefully

about who we partner up with.

Amahle, you need someone
who will elevate your life.

You know? Help you with your career.

-Okay. Thank you so much for the advice.
-Pleasure.

Now, if you don't mind. Okay, bye.

Bye-bye.

-Okay, fine.
-Bye.

-Eish, eish.
-Thank you.

Oh, shit.

La… Late.

Lying in bed, no doubt.

I wish.

Great news for you.

We decided to go with your idea.

We're going to make African dishes
to pair with our wines.

Oh.

Except, you're late.
So we made Ovee the project manager.

The lesson here
is to never bite the hand that feeds you.

So yes, guys. As I was saying. Um,

the quality of the food
that is coming out of this little kitchen

must be worthy of the wine, alright?

-Hey, a word. A word, please.
-So obviously…

-Okay.
-Mmm.

Okay, um, I'll be back just now.

-Bro, you stole my idea.
-What's up, boy?

Maybe they just recognised
my leadership quality.

I fell asleep
while you were having sex with Lena.

Hey, my bad, bro. My bad, bro.

Oh, jeez.

No, bro.

Ya, guys. So, ya, as I was saying,
here are a couple of matches we've got.

Pops?

Listen, I'm in Cape Town today.

I want to introduce you
to the board members

to discuss your future.

Dad, I've got a friend's
party tonight so I can't make it.

You're wasting
your time on parties and games.

-You're Ovee Sityebi.
-Oh, schucks.

Let that stick to your brain.

Right now you're a prince
and I want to turn you into a king.

That's your destiny. You can't escape it.

I want you this side.

I spoke to your father's PA

and they are having
a board meeting tonight.

-Oh, yeah?
-Mm-hmm.

And you'll be there.

-I will?
-And so will I.

Wait. What?

I have to tell you a secret.

I have a problem.

A confidence problem.

And I hide it.
I think I hide it well. It's just,

not well enough

because that's why I'm
still a freelancer training interns.

But…

Your father.

You know, he…

He speaks to me like,

I belong.

You know?

Like I'm a person.
Like I, too, can have a seat at the table.

-Oh, I… I don't think…
-I think so.

I think so.

I think so.

I'll wear blue.

Make sure your tie matches.

What are we gonna do?

I'll schedule for my dad's dinner
to take place across the road

from Amahle's beach party

so that I can just jump
from the one to the other.

Okay, then what about Lena?

Because if she comes to your dad's dinner
then she'll know that I'm you.

Yeah, you'll have to stop her.

Bro, I can't stop her. She's unstoppable.

She'll come to the restaurant.

She wants a seat at the table.

Do you see how much fun it is being me?

Schucks, bro. We're cooked, man.

I think this
whole game is over, bro.

Wait.

What if we fake a second
dinner at the restaurant poolside?

How are we going to fake your dad
and the board members?

This is my…

Sister, Sahara.

What do you want us to do?

Act rich.

If you don't know how, just watch me.

I spend a lot of time
watching these rich people.

I know exactly how they are.

-So do I.
-Shh, shh, shh!

Let me do the talking.

What if someone asks me something?

Well, something then becomes nothing.

Just nod and smile. You have no lines.

I'll give you rich names.

Only rich one minute
and he's already an asshole.

Ah! There is my son now.

Is everything sorted?

My son.

You need something to drink.

Waiter!

-Ah! Your best whisky.
-Wait!

What are you doing?

Practicing.

We're going to need some money for…

Mr Sityebi.

Ah, my dear!

You look…

-Let's meet the VIPs.
-Yes.

This is Mrs…

Opera.

-Mrs O…
-…pera!

What a pleasure. So lovely to meet you.

Your boss
lets you wear those to work?

I am the boss.

Of course. Yes, of course.

Yeah, and this here is Prince Harry.

Harold.

Harold Prince.

Mr Prince. So lovely to meet you.
How are you doing today, sir?

He speaks French.

From the Ivory Coast.

Ah. Yes.

How are you, sir?

-Mmm.
-Um, do you speak Portuguese?

-No.
-Did you say French? It's Portuguese.

Yes. He speaks Portuguese.

From the Ivory Coast?

Yes, uh, he moved there.

-Angola.
-From Angola.

Ah.

Good day, sir.

That's all I know.

Let's sit.

Ah, yes.

It's good to finally meet you, Junior.

You have really big shoes to fill.

-Oh!
-He's ready.

He'll start
at Jozi headquarters next week.

I still have to complete
the intern course first, of course.

And we can all safely say
he's top of the class.

So your little boy's not here yet.

He's going to be here any minute now.

-Yeah.
-Mmm.

Does he often flake
on you like this? I mean…

You know, this is him calling right now.

-But the phone's not ringing.
-It's crazy.

Uh, so sorry, I must take this.

-Hi.
-Where are you?

Yeah, I'm on the way.

Yeah, I'm nearly there.

Okay, yeah. See you.
Bye-bye.

And cheers to that.

-Cheers.
-Cheers.

Cheers.

-The organisms within the organisation.
-Mmm.

You know, because
each department forms like an organ

within the organisation.

-Hey.
-Hey.

Hey, look who's here. How lovely.

-Good to see you.
-Mmm.

It's good to see you as well.

Um, let me get you a drink.

That's fine
because last time I was the waiter, so…

-Right, yeah.
-Yeah.

-I'll get one for you.
-Sure.

Hi.

And that?

Oh, it's just…
a little bit of fun. That's all.

Ooh! I like fun!

-What kind of fun are we having?
-Uh, no, no, no.

The kind of fun where we get to see

who your girl's
little boyfriend really is.

You wanna spike him?

Spike is a strong word. No, we're…

We're just allowing him
to show us his true colours. That's all.

I mean, worst case scenario,

he wakes up in the morning
with a slight headache.

It's no big deal.

Memo, look,

I care about her.

I care just like you care.

A guy like that will,

will embarrass her,
bring her down, just distract her.

You don't want that, do you?

Right? No, neither do I.

So let's…

You and I, let's let her see
what she's getting herself into now

before this turns into real heartache.

Yeah?

And here we go.
A drink for the man of the hour.

-Thank you.
-You're welcome.

In wine, there is truth, right?

Yeah. In wine, there is truth.

Cheers.

Yeah, I mean,
I was feeling a little bit stressed,

but I feel I'm more relaxed lately.

Because I have something to tell you…

Oh.

About myself.

Can you feel that? I have this…

It's quite warm like all of a sudden.

Um,

uh, yeah. I guess.

Sorry.

Um, I just…
I need to go to the bathroom quickly.

So I'll see you just now.

-Okay.
-Okay, cool.

-Okay.
-My goodness.

-I'll see you just now.
-Bye.

And really,
that's just my theory on business

and I've never told anyone this.

What do you think?

-Bravo.
-Wow.

Let's organise some champagne.

Oh, yes! Ah!

Okay.

Oh, jeez.

Is he gone?

Okay. Sorry.

You can now serve. I'm gonna…

Yeah.

Okay.

Okay.

-Hey.
-Where have you been?

Look, I've been thinking…
Dad, I've been thinking.

You know how I've said
I want to do it myself?

If I'm doing it myself,

I'm going to get the chance
to make you proud.

Have you been… Shh!
Have you been drinking, Ovee?

-No.
-Shh! Sit down.

Uh, apologies, everyone.

We were just discussing
some business matter.

Do you guys ever wonder why you work?

Like, is it just to make money?

Money's good. We like money.

Yeah, but don't you want
to make a difference?

Yeah, we are going to make a difference.

Putting Black wine makers on the map
with our premium label wine.

-Excuse me, sorry. I have…
-Mm-hmm.

I'm coming. Yeah,
I'm coming. I'm coming now.

I'm back!

I'm back. I'm back to turn them up.

-Hey.
-Hey.

Baby, what are you wearing?

Oh, I just want to make a good impression.

Aw.

It's not what I meant.

You don't have to wear a suit
to make a good impression.

-I've got a question for you.
-Mmm?

Would you still like me
if I had a burnt orange Lamborghini?

Are you drunk?

No, why does everyone
keep asking me that? I'm fine.

-Yeah?
-I do want another drink though.

Do you want a drink?

-Uh, no, no, no.
-I'll get you a drink.

-I'm okay.
-Can I have a drink there, please?

Hey, guys.

Do you also want a drink?
I'll get you a drink.

Actually, you know what?
Everybody, drinks on me tonight!

Come on!

Oh, babe. Babe, remember when we met?

And then…

Swish!

-Oh, my God. Okay.
-And then, and then,

And then I came… I came like a superhero.

Don't worry. It's all good.

I'm fine, everyone. I'm good.

-I'm fine.
-What's going on? Who are you right now?

Hey, I'm…

Sorry.

Oh, jeez. Okay, I've gotta go.

No! No, where do you keep going off?
Where do you keep running off to?

Shh, hey. I'll be back.

The mack will be back!

-Mack will be back.
-Friend.

Bro,
what am I going to say at the table?

Relax, they're not real board members.

Okay, then what about Lena?

-Look, just put your foot.
-Bro!

Pops.

Pops!

Oh, Jesus.

Pops!

Pops!

Dad, please. I can explain, Dad. Look…

Dad! Sorry.

Pops, look.

Hi.

It's best you found out now
before it's too late, right?

Now you know what he's really like.

I just want to go home, please.

Amahle, wait. Hey, look.

I've been meaning to tell you something,

and now that your internship
is coming to an end I can do that.

I've liked you for a long time now.

And you know that the recommendations
for ComServe are happening soon, right?

And you're my favourite candidate.

Always have been.

So if you want me to, I can help you.

No.

Thank you.

Be your own boss, girl.

You got this.

Mrs O, thank you. Thank you.

It was so lovely, sir.
It was so lovely speaking with you.

Mr Sityebi,
I will be sending through that proposal.

Organise. Organise it.

-Absolutely.
-Organise.

Absolutely.

I'm… That was amazing!

Like I feel… I feel so, like, alive.

And even if nothing comes of this,

this really felt
like a turning point in my life.

I think you did great.

I'm super proud of you.

Thank you.

First new message.

Amahle, about last night.

I don't know what came over me.

Second message.

What can I do to make it right?

Look, that wasn't me.

Please, let's meet
so I can apologise properly.

Third message.

Amahle, it's me again.

-Hey.
-Hey.

Your waiter behaved like a douche.

Yeah, I know.

In wine, there is truth, right?

No.

Dr Mokoena…

Dammit, I'm such an idiot.

Friend, what's wrong?

Dr Mokoena spiked him.

What?

I know now it was so wrong.

You know now?

I was just trying to protect you.

Wow, Memo.

I'm so sorry, friend.

No, no.

Wow.

-Amahle. Ama…
-No.

I made some recommendations
for the winner.

Expect some good news.

Sir, it's a great honor
to have you here, really.

And, just to let you know,

we're giving the prize
to Owethu Jnr. for best candidate.

So my son was really the best candidate?

-Yes, he was.
-Tell me the truth.

No, he was.

Desmond, the truth.

-Um, sorry, sir.
-No.

This seat is reserved
for Mr Owethu Sityebi Snr

Yes, I know.

Lena, have you met Mr Owethu Sityebi Snr?

Yes, I have.

Wonderful.

Okay, let's start shall we? There we go.

So sorry about that.

The winner.

Sorry. Welcome.

Welcome, everyone, to the

Sityebi Group's young professionals
in training graduation ceremony.

My name is Lena

and I've had the honour
of leading this program.

Now, I must say,

just like the Sityebi wine,
this group was mighty fine.

Should we get to the winner?

Yes? Yes? Alright, drum roll, please.

And the winner is…

Nathi Maseko.

Oh, that's you.

My, bro.

What did you do?

Hey, Pops.

Uh, first of all,
I have something I need to clear up.

Um…

My name is not Nathi Maseko.
I'm Ovee Sityebi, son of Owethu Sityebi.

But I'm not him either.

The truth is, I'm finding myself.

And that's why my driver and I…
my best friend and I…

We swapped lives to see
who we are beyond our bank accounts.

And it started out
as a stupid dare for a girl

because Nathi think I couldn't get
a girl to like me for who I am,

but what I learnt is…

-Amahle!
-Ooh!

Amahle, wait!

-Well then, in that case, the winner is…
-Wait.

Ovee Sityebi. I am so confused.

You lied to me!

No, I mean, I lied about my name,
but everything else is true.

It all started out as some kind of dare?

-Look. Look, it's…
-A dare?!

Look, when Nathi
pointed you out in the crowd…

-Oh, so I could've been anyone?!
-I was completely…

But you weren't. You were you.

If I'd kissed you that night, what then?

I don't know.

I don't know, but we're here now.

I was some kind of a challenge
for you, wasn't I?

Because for the first time
in your entitled life,

you had to work for something.

That's not fair.

If this was really real then
why wouldn't you just tell me the truth?

-I tried.
-When?

-On the beach!
-On the beach?!

Yes, on the beach!

-If you'll just give me a chance to…
-No! You lied to me again!

You told me
that your mother was a housekeeper.

Is she even dead?

Or was that something you said
to get me into bed?

The rat! The rat!

Yeah, there's more than one rat here.

Block it off!

What kind of a moronic idiot are you?!

It was right in your grasp, boy.

I'm really sorry. I…

I was just enjoying being a big shot.

You know, I figured if you knew
I was just a housekeepers son,

you wouldn't like me anymore.

You think I liked you
because I thought you were Ovee Sityebi?

I liked you despite that.

Look, I spent all my life
with rich assholes

who disrespect and underestimate me.

I like guys who are honest.

And sincere.

Well, I mean you did say you like losers.

Look, I'm glad
you didn't take the internship.

The last thing you want
is to get lost in some big company

and you certainly
don't want to be in anyone's shadow.

Okay, except mine maybe.

I mean, where else
am I going to get food like that?

Alright.

Thank you so much.

Thank you. Yeah.

Ovee.

This car will get you to Jo'burg.

You start on Monday at 8am.

No excuses.

Take it, boy.

Owethu!

-You can't buy me, Dad.
-Owethu! Owethu.

Listen.

I'm not buying you here, dammit.

-I mean, this is a sign-on bonus.
-No, this is a bribe, Dad.

-No, it's not a bribe!
-It's a bribe, Dad.

You're ungrateful.

Listen, everything
I've done here, I've done it for you!

-You've done it for you!
-No, I did it for you!

Do you know
how disappointed you mother would be

if she saw the man…

The child you've become?

My mom?

-Yes, your mother.
-Oh.

That's the first time you ever mentioned
my mother since she passed away.

And that's what you say, Dad?

You know what? She'd be proud of you.

Oh, she'd be proud, yeah.

She'd be proud of this
billion rand empire that you've built.

But I wonder how she'd feel to know

that it cost you
forgetting that she ever existed.

-I never forgot about your mother!
-Oh, yes. You forgot her.

-I never forgot about her!
-Do you even know who she is, Dad?

You don't know how much I loved your mom.

I have some sort of an idea.

Trying to forget
was the only way I could move on!

-Trying to forget?
-Yes! Trying to forget!

You know how to forget…

and I'm still stuck here,

with all of this.

And I'd trade it all
for one more moment to be with my mother.

Look at me.

Listen to me, Dad.
Please, for once in your life.

-Please.
-Listen…

I can make it happen.

I can give you a moment with your mother.

Our old house.

Yeah. I couldn't give it up.

It's like all the same.

The smell and everything.

Sometimes,
I just come here and sit.

Of all the houses we have,
this one is different.

It has the warmth of a home.

You know, Dad, I was
standing right here when she collapsed.

Over there.

Did you know she had cancer, Dad?

So what took you so long
to get her to the doctor?

Where were you, Dad?

The hospital was far away.

We didn't have any money.

Your mother said it was
just a headache and nothing serious.

She was very busy.

She was helping me
get the business started.

Taking care of you.

And helping the neighbours as well.

Your mother cared for people.

She loved them.

I now understand where you get your heart.

It's from your mother.

Well, um, I think
I know what I want to do, Dad.

What do you want to do?

I want the Lambo.

But I want to sell it.

Why?

I want to help people like Mom.

If that's what you want.

Giving people access to treatment
closer to home cuts costs

and also the wait time for treatment.

It would be my dream to work here.

You know,
back to this community that raised me.

When can you start?

I don't need to interview?

Actually, uh,
we've kind of been waiting for you.

"Khuselwa Onothando."

"The one who protects
and the one with love." Oh!

What a beautiful name.

Who was she?

The wife of Owethu Sityebi.

Owethu Sityebi?

Before he made his billions,
he lived here with his wife and son.

She passed from cancer
that was left undiagnosed for too long.

Hence…

Our cheeky Pinot
pairs perfectly with our delicious oxtail.

Now for the more adventurous,
I would suggest trying…

Hmm? Our chicken feet.

These go amazing
with our award winning Chenin.

I'm telling you,
the only thing more delicious is our chef.

Operate, bud.

Okay, what are we having? Chicken feet?

There's some chicken feet
over there. Some oxtail.

Cool.

Welcome to another year
of the Sityebi Wine and Colour festival.

You know, it gives me

pride to introduce
to you my son, Ovee Sityebi…

…who runs the Sityebi
Social Responsibility division.

Over to you, my son.

Thanks, Pops.

Hey, everyone.

So just a reminder that today,
the fun we have is very important

because the money
that we raise at this festival

will see the roll out of three new clinics
in my late mother's name.

Now let's get lit!

Ten, nine,

eight, seven, six,

five, four, three, two, one!

You stopped calling.

All I had to offer you were words.

I waited to show you the real me.

I'm Ovee Sityebi.

Gcaka, Khela.

The son
of Dalauthando and Owethu Sityebi.

And it's a pleasure to meet you.

I'm so happy to meet you.
